good phone
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Hayden18:
I have to agree with you. This phone is really good for its price but lacks in battery capacity
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Tommixoft:
Battery is relatively good. The same as in all smart devices. with normal usage [sms, calls, few minutes of wi-fi/mobile data/ gps / some video] i get 3 days without charging it.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ppetermann:
what's your setup? longest I got out of the battery so far is about 26h..
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Tommixoft:
26h i'm getting even when i use 3G + mobile data + Gps for like 2 hours non stop. MANY messaging..calls and so on.

I will tell you the secret to the longer battery life - ALWAYS charge your battery in turned off phone. In turned on phone battery is charged bad. very quick, so it discharges quick. If you don't believe me -make a test. charge in shutted down phone and use, and then after it comes to let's say 5% charge it when phone is on and then use it and you will see the difference :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] trisest:
Yea but that only works over night... :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] uncleradio:

Hi

i rooted my Phone (Gingerbread XWJVI) a few Days ago with CF-Root 3.7.

Everything went fine, thanks to the great work from Chainfire :)

Unfortunatly i tried to install a newer Busybox Version.

I tried Busybox Installer (JRummy) from Market, unfortunatly the Connection got lost during download/install.

After that i tried installing Busybox (Stericson) which gave me an Error :

Failure /system/xbin/ could not be remounted as RW!

Root Checker gives:

Congratulations ...

Superuser.apk - com. ... is installed.

The adb binary is set to default shell user access as a standard non-root user.

Standard su binary location : ls -l /system/bin/su:
Segmentation fault

Standard su binary location : ls -l /system/xbin/su:
Segmentation fault

Alternate su binary location :
Segmentation fault

and for Busybox verification:

Installed Busybox Version:
Busybox is not sharing its version information.

Busybox supports the folloeing applets:
Busybox is not sharing its supported applets.

So i messed things up.

Is there any way of getting Busybox 1.16androidminimal back which came with CF-Root 3.7 ?

Any help apreciated.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DonVito2020:
Try flashing CF-Root 3.7 again via odin

[put ur sgs into download mode {HOME+VOL DOWN+POWER}, load kernel in pda {DO NOT select REPARTITION} and flash] instructions are here

Or else you can flash a new rooted/custom rom via odin.

Copy/Back up all your personal data to ur pc/sd before flashing. because it will wipe!!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sysiphus66:
Reflashed CF-Root and wiped.

No Result, Busybox stayed messed up.

The problem may be a differnet one.

If i just want to get a directory listing in terminal,

ls gives me a segmentation fault.

If i do a "toolbox ls" everything is fine.
[HTC EVO 3D] holdfast043:
I have a new 16GB SD card that I want to put in my Evo3D.

Is there anything I need to transfer over to make it work? or does the phone create all the folders/files on start up?

Thanks!
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
The phone will create all the folders and items needed, which are very minimal.

If there is any issue, i.e. new card didn't come formatted correctly, android will prompt when you insert it to have it formatted.

If you miss the prompt, or it doesn't provide the prompt and you still want to format, its available under Settings->SD & Phone Storage -> Erase SD card.

Congrats on the new purchase. I'm still at 8 and need to upgrade one of these days...especially with these large nandroids and ROMs. Hope that helps!
[HTC EVO 3D] holdfast043:
Thanks! Thats what I thought but wanted to make sure. Much appreciated!

This is my second full day with the phone and I am loving it. Not rooted yet, I think I will wait a bit.
[HTC EVO 3D] cipher77:
odd

so, i wanted to upgrade my card, too.

16gb class 10.

copied the contents onto my desktop.

copied them on the new card.

however, just for kicks...i went into settings to play w/ the erase contents of sd card toggle.

nothing.

any idea why if it's an option you can't actually do it?

does one have to unmount it first?

thanks in advance...

I saw a 3d with red soft keys and was wondering if it is posible for some 1 to create colored soft keys flash or even a color change app ..
[HTC EVO 3D] dgaf98:
no. the leds are white. they are using tape/vinyl/markers and taking the phone apart and covering the leds to do this..
[HTC EVO 3D] creektrack:
What he said...I'm the one that created the write-ups on those...The LEDs that light them are white, so there is no way to change them with an app, the only possible way is to use my DIY to make them which ever color you like...

The reason why some phones are able to change colors is because they either have multiple LEDs located in the same spot or they use RGB LEDs, which have 3 colors in one LED, Red, Green, and Blue, and then you can make custom colors with those three lit up at different intensities...
[HTC EVO 3D] chillenandy321:
My LED's are blue and look factory IMO. Used Blue electrical tape.
[HTC EVO 3D] felacio:
Hey Brian. If ya would have waited for me to wake up I would have pm'ed you back! Lol

Yeah. What everyone else said. I cracked my phone open and used red vinyl tape.

In my case the tape faded quickly and turned pink. So i had to open it back up and I applied red Sharpie over the vinyl tape as well. This seems to be holding up better this time around.
[HTC EVO 3D] JoeJoe617:
Is there a DIY video on how to do this or at least open the phone? I would like to change the colors too. If not then which tape would you recommend I use, in terms of material, like can I use clear scotch tape and just color it whichever color with a sharpie?
[HTC EVO 3D] creektrack:
Here's a teardown video...use fade resistant electrical tape, cuz sharpie on scotch tape would look sloppy, but who knows...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o5jMCPjbVHY&feature=youtube_gdata_player

And here's my walkthrough on how to do it...

[HTC EVO 3D] JoeJoe617:
http://www.mcmelectronics.com/product/108-960&t=1 would this tape be good ?!
[HTC EVO 3D] creektrack:
I actually haven't used tape, but a few ppl have said that it works great, but with that thickness it will probly dim the lights quite a bit...
[HTC EVO 3D] JoeJoe617:
So which thickness will be sufficient, because I'm not trying to dim them.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] khathaivu:
recently i saw a lot of those extended battery 3500 mAh for just about maybe 12$ ( of course from Chinese sellers). i know that the actual storage capacity of those batteries is just about 80% , 85% of stated 3500mAh, but that is still a lot more than 1400mAh of the stock battery so we still have a lot more juice to play around the day.

do you think it is still better to have 1 of those?

1 problem for the white-mt4g-owners is that back cover only has black color ( i own a white color too :( )
[myTouch 4G Accessories] d12unk13astard:
you can't spray paint the back cover to match the phone? lol too easy..

anyways its well worth the purchase imho, i recieved mine in about 2 weeks from ordering it and its a lifesaver on long trips where your away from any charger. I get 20+ hours hammering away at the phone with extreme usage no matter what i throw at it. These batteries do tend to go out a lot quicker tho compared to the real deal batteries. But for 10-12 dollars whos complaining.. im gonna order another next paycheck.

[myTouch 4G Accessories] AggNA:
OR you can just get stock size Mugen 1650mAh battery (not Seidio 1600mAh) replacing our current 1400mAh stock battery. Along with UV/UC kernel with tweaked gov. Also you can modify service and app whichconsume system resource from starting. For network you can setup interval based daemon on fixed duration so its not using data thus consuming battery. Also when service is not using GPS it disables it. You can also make the blacklight very dim and not so bright.

I myself took the phone out at 8am and now is 3:23 and I'm at 84% after moderate usage and light SMS, Cell, and heavy web surfing. By the time I go home at 10pm ill be around 70%+ as my is more custom based tweaked.

[General Questions and Answers] dunderdon:
I think you are one of them who never can decide because it will "soon" come something even better. Reading all the specs and knows its pros & cons so you can talk against the seller when you are in the phonestore etc .

....But you know what, I´ll do the same ;-)
[General Questions and Answers] l3xander:
The Samsung Galaxy S II has the better screen, and from what I've seen it makes better pictures. Also the battery for the SGSII is better: Li-Ion 1650 mAh vs. the Li-Ion 1520 mAh from the HTC Sensation. But the differences are not that great, and the HTC Sense from the Sensation is a great UI, and if you use a custom ROM from LeeDrOiD you can get a greater experience from the Sensation.

So, I regularly use the Pulse News app to aggregate all the websites I care about. This morning however, over the span of 2 hours, it somehow used up 4gigs of data. Doing what? No effing clue. I don't think it's even possible to reach those kinds of speeds on the H+ network. Has this happened to snyone else? And how can it be fixed?
[Galaxy S II General] TheSopranos16:
Hmm...did a little math and that would mean you sustained an average download speed of about 5 mbps for 2 hours. IDK how Bell is with their speeds but where I live, I can't get above about 2.5 mbps on at&t. But even if the speed is possible, not sure what it could download for 4Gig. It usually only downloads headlines and a thumbnail sized picture.

That being said, I stopped using Pulse after about a week when I found it was using a LOT of battery in the background. I prefer a more basic RSS reader that is more efficient, even if its not as pretty.
[Galaxy S II General] Rovah:
IDK what the Bell network can support speed wise but 5 mbps seems ok. Regardless i've limited the ammont of data Pulse can download.

It is kind of a battery hog but it's pretty and fairly easy to use.

Thanks for the input.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cjackway:
Hi all,

I'm having a problem with my sgs2 that I'm unable to solve.

The problem is that sometimes, not always, my phone does not enter sleep by itself. Infact it doesn't lock itself either.

Also, again sometimes, if I have a missed call alert or text the display lights up but then stays lit sat at the lock screen.

I've done some testing. I have tried different roms and tried the stock Samsung tom without modifying any settings and the problem remains.

If the phone is in my pocket then it can be a while before I notice. Today this happened for about an hour before I checked my phone. The phone was hot and the battery level had significantly dropped.

I've also noticed that with sound and vibrate switched off, sometimes when receiving a call the phone vibrates for 1/10 of a second. Everytime this has occurred the screen has stayed on after lighting up for the call.

I have wiped the user area on my phone but note this did not delete my music and pictures. Is this correct?

Any ideas? I'm really stumped and it's ruining the phone for me.

Thanks.

You can block the game which has it integrated from connecting to the internet as well. You'll need root to do so with Droidwall - it's free on the market. If the app is starting automatically, it won't stop that.

Hi guys

Basically I've been a windows mobile user for ages now, had the omnia i900 for quite some time now, and i think its time to move on.

I've been thinking allot of buying this phone because it has an excellent value for money. Simplyelectronics.com has it listed for like 300 euros and here in my country(Cyprus) its 550 or something, which is ALLOT. So I've read allot of reviews and everything, but I would like to know what YOU guys think, how it is for everyday use.

Any problems or annoying stuff about it, and also if it's easy to use and easy to carry around, although is that big.

I really appreciate it.

I'm also very interested in this phone. This is mainly because of it's killer hardware as well as the poor software as this has caused the price to fall to a reasonable level. Poor software can easily be fixed by flashing a custom Rom/kernel.

Hi,

I want to give something back to developers doing great jobs for smartphones. So I decided to mirror/host any roms, files, sources, scripts, projects.

I'm also not a friend of free hosting services with pop-ups, speed limitations, captchas or waiting time.

What you get:

- space... a lot of (~ 14TB, upgradeable)

- speed... 1000 Mbit up/down

- traffic... no limit

- uploading files via ftp account or web-script

- own subdomain with your (project)name (e.g myrom.xda-hosting)

- counter (so you can check out your hits)

What I want:

- Nothing, but you can hit the thanks-button ;)

Requirements:

- no illegal stuff

- no abuse

- only project related files (size doesn't matter)

If you are interessted just drop me a PM, that's all.

cheers,

FabseN

P.S.: It seems not the right subforum, but I wanted to start in a section of my device.

sure, that was my first thought. but on the other hand... who will keep the releases up-to-date then? that's why I would like the devs to manage the mirrors by themselves so they can keep the links up-to-date.
