I don't think the v8 helps the battery, i think it's just for performance. u should try it without it first.

heres the link to the v6 tweaks

What do you do on your phone? 12 hours is pretty good.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alex1123:
Well im running OMFGB August 12 nightly its one of the fastest and smoothest 2.3 rom ive ever used i havent used the aosp verion though so i dont know how smooth that one is. And i have email syncing and facebook and i use google voice a lot i mostly do texting and i keep my homescreens without any widgets that need to update a lot. i also calibrated my battery so i could get pretty decent battery life which in my opinion is 12 Hours but im still looking on ways to improve it.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Majin101:
ohh, i see. Yeah i know where ya comin from, I've done a lot of flashing and just decided to go with the most stable. They were all somewhat smooth but as for battery life, I've gotten the best battery with jaybobs rom.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waqasr:
For Battery life I would recommend extended 1900mAh batteries.

I didn't have to buy custom cover since they fit in the stock back cover.

2 batteries with external charger with shipping would cost you about $20.

I get about 2 days on a single charge with moderate use.

I am using CM7.1 nightly 160 at the moment.

If you are interested let me know I will point you towards the retailer

I bought them from on Amazon/Ebay.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alex1123:
Well im going to try jaybobs rom then and see how that does yesterday with OMFGB rom i got 11h 59m 2s and after that it shortly died off and im just running setcpu at 729 max 691 min performance lol i think i really need to change that if i want save battery does any one have any good setcpu profiles they would recommend? And i might look towards buying a extended battery but i dont really want to seeing as my upgrade is in december.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waqasr:
Well that is what killing your batteries right there :)

I am no expert but I will tell you what I use,

I only use 1 profile besides the main one on setCpu:

Screen On/Main: 691 max 176 min (On Demand)

Screen Off: Max 264 min 19 On Demand ( Since I dont use it for music or anything else screen off with min 19 is no issue for me)

By the I also use v6 Super Charger and V8 kernel tweaks and they do make

your phone very snappy and responsive!!

Best of luck :)

I recently flashed gingerbread hero deck and it's pretty nice. But, something weird I notice is that my 3g download speeds have dropped off considerably (from 1200kbps range to 600). I can't explain it. I was on aosp's 5-23 rom before. I also recently started using firerats mod. Not sure what's up.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NineInchNails:
Its the build prop that causes it. I'd use the V8 3g tweaks to see if it helps.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alex1123:
okay ive installed OMFGB 1.3.1 nightly 8/17 and with the V6 scirpt runs well along with the v8 and the 3g one which i cant recall the name of but everything now runs really good but im still calibrating the battery so i still have to see how that goes but so far its been good. Thanks for the tips everyone now to try out this jaybobs kernel hopefully everything will still work well.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheDoctor1177:
I knew there were some issues with some ROMs losing GPS location when they used the navigation app that came with Maps, and it was found that it worked with an older version (5.2 I believe). But Maps has had a couple more updates since then and I was wondering if it now works or is it still recommended to use the older version.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] klobkelosh:
I'm testing v5.9 now and no issues yet, but this version only came out today. Versions 5.3-5.8 caused a number of problems with the eris. Usually navigation or map force closes or crashes, sometimes full restarts. If you need reliability, 5.2 is your version. Give a few more days of testing, maybe 5.9 will work out...

Hi All,

This may be a very stupid question but please answer it.

My friend has a SG2 he told me that he is not able to access menu/play apps while he is on call with some unwanted person like your BOSS or ex-girlfriend or boyfriend.

So can anybody tell how o do it.

Thanks in anticipation!

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Namheul:
I flashed my WiFi Xoom to the stock 3.01 using the stock images in the thread here.

I then did the standard OTA upgrades to 3.1 and 3.2. I noticed the other day, that when i'm in a file manager and i tap to open a file (video for example) it doesn't prompt me which app to use to open the file.

The semi-transparent black background fades in as if the dialog had popped up, but it doesn't show. If i press the back button or tap the background, the semi-transparent background fades away and i'm back to the file manager as normal.

It does it in every file manager i have tried and for any file i try open.

Anyone seen this before?
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okantomi:
Yes, this seems to be a bug in HC3.2...when it dims, just rotate the Xoom from landscape to portrait mode, for instance, forcing the Xoom to re-draw the "picker" window. You should have no further problems with that app, but it's best to choose a default app when asked.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Namheul:
Oh wow, i thought it was something i had done wrong.

Thank you. I will test this out tonight.

[Acer Iconia A500] monkey10120:
Hey guys I just found out about an easy way to get the ipad UI.

Takes a few minutes and just a few steps.

1. Get an apple logo and cover the Acer name on the back of your tab and fill all usb, hdmi and sd ports with super glue, because ipads get fustrated with to much ports, or apple will send you to jail and sue your ass for putting ios on another device. Then restart the device.

2. It might take a little longer than normal for your tab to start up because it thinks its and I pad now and is not used to having everything it does controlled and monitored.

3. Once it starts up, in the upper right corner of the home screen you will see a button called, "Apps", click it.

4. Waallaa, you now have the I pad UI.

This UI is great with its huge selection of fully customizable Wallpapers!

Hate notifications? Great you won't see those any more. There only for smart people who like some productivity in their life anyway.

Also like searching through useless apps to find the weather, time or simple email? Then you will love this ui.

This is still in its test stages but so far no bugs have been found!

Download here----> i Like my tab uncustomizable and owned by a communist company v1.0.zip

Haha I thought I'd get some humor in the forums.
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
Ah yes, most amusing... :rolleyes:

Oh, and it's "Voilà" by the way, not "Waallaa".
[Acer Iconia A500] entropy.of.avarice:
You forgot the final step!

Totally forgot the most vital step in this process:

- Sign up for as many tech related message boards as you can - then take it upon yourself to educate the world as to how superior your device is compared to any non-apple device. When people mention things like "ports" and "Working Adobe Flash Support" just put your fingers in your ears and make annoying sounds.

- If available in your area, hit up the local apple "I need a friend" bar, where you can find other people to talk about the superiority of anything Steve Jobs has ever done.

:-)

[Acer Iconia A500] entropy.of.avarice:
Lol I see what you did there :-)
[Acer Iconia A500] skullkandy:
you know, you'd think that tech minded people would be logical. But that doesn't ever seem to be true.

I have an android phone and iconia tablet. But I don't feel the need to justify my purchase by constantly making up wild claims and trash talking things that aren't what I chose to buy.

Apple makes amazing machines. Anyone who tries to deny that is a short sited fool who just wants to epeen all around the internet to make themselves feel cool.

The only people who talk trash on apple products are the ones who've never used one for more than 30 seconds. So chill out, you just make yourself look like a fool by trash talking something you obviously are not knowledgeable about.

You know why apple locks things out? So your machine works seemlessly and perfectly every time you use it. So that there aren't conflicts between programs or hardware that require constant tweeking to work through, so you have a top quality piece of gear.

example. I have a custom pc I built myself (well several, but my main) is decently fast and constantly being upgraded. It currently has a 2.3 quad core AMD chip with 8 gig of ram. On anything other than gaming my 1.3 dual core, 2gb ram macbook pro leaves it in the dust every time. And I don't have to spend hours constantly working on it to get it to do that. Not once in 6 years have I had a single error, a single bad boot, a single virus, spyware, or even hiccup on the macbook.

So please keep in mind that you look like a tool to anyone who has used both pc and mac and judges a machine on it's reality instead of on the same misrepresenting pile of myths that PC-propagandists have been regurgitating for over a decade.
[Acer Iconia A500] millenniumccdc:
i like both

Ease of use and stabilty is apples strong suit.

I'm new to droid and have rooted a few devices and recently the a500.

I have experience building computers and am looking forward to all tech and software.

Can't wait for an omap5 tab with dual boot os or tri boot.

Imagine a500 with win8 and icecream.

Bring it. I like options and open source I choose root.
[Acer Iconia A500] nytrojen:
I don't think anyone else before you really need to chill out - you seem to be the only one really riled up about this post. Yes Apple has great hardware, no-one is denying that (apart from the iPad2 camera maybe), and yes we are all aware that Apple locks down their OSs to ensure a smooth experience.

Thing is, this is XDA, and the majority of people on here WANT to be able to tweak their machines to how they see fit. I'm one of those people and it's the main reason I don't have iDevices. If I don't like something I want to change its behaviour, and that's not always possible with Apple devices (at least without having to jailbreak).

Maybe the reason you're acting like a tool on here is because you need a reason to justify spending the extra dollars on your shiny Macbook pro. Yes it works for you, good for you. The minute you come on here calling us short "sited" (sic) fools just paints yourself as someone who likes to epeen around the internet to make themselves look cool and enlightened.

Get a sense of humour. Even the most stalwart of Apple users should be able to admit some of the shortcomings of their devices, as can users of other devices. Or maybe you suffer from the typical Stockholm Syndrome that seems to infect many iFans.
[Acer Iconia A500] Athrun88:
+1!!! Took the words right out of my mouth =D
[Acer Iconia A500] entropy.of.avarice:
Wow.

You seem rather upset over a bit of sillyness. Of course apple makes an amazing product - modern phones/tablets are amazing.

So "chill out". You don't want to "look like a tool", right?

:-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)
[Acer Iconia A500] Potatoofdoom:
I've spent countless hours on iPhones, my fiancée owns one, and I have several friends that own them. I've jailbroken them and even taken one apart. I think the phone is a child's toy and would never want to own one. Your assertion has been invalidated by a single individual due to your poor choice of words.

My question is, and I genuinely would love an answer to this. Why are you so defensive about apple products? Are you a designer? If so, that would make sense, I would not want to read about people bashing something I devoted so much effort into. But if not, and again, I genuinely mean this, why are you so defensive?
[Acer Iconia A500] jormathog:
HAHA nice. When I first saw the thread headline I was gonna slap whoever started the thread thinking it was for real. Very funny! Love the part about super gluing the ports shut.
[Acer Iconia A500] villanmike:
i guess it's easy in comparison to make your os run smooth when there is no USB support, no ports, etc...

[Acer Iconia A500] vdub804:
I knew an apple fanboy would rant on this one, op hilarious howto though
[Acer Iconia A500] entropy.of.avarice:
you know how some apple fans are :(

With the expense of apples tablets/phones - it's no wonder the fanboys get really defensive - no one wants to consider the idea that they overpaid for a device that, quite frankly, is lacking in the features department.

Sure - the IPad is impressive. But once you factor in the lack of ports, lack of adobe flash support, and the locked down nature of the OS - it's a hell of a lot less impressive.

Sure - the IPhone is impressive. But once you factor in the cost, lack of adobe flash support, and the locked down OS - you get the idea... :-)
[Acer Iconia A500] skullkandy:
I would give you more points and arguments. But like usual your only "argument" if you can call it that is "you're a fanboy!!!!" because factual discussion is something you douches are unable to handle....as are every moron who likes to talk trash on apple products without having a clue what they're even talking about.

I choose to use pc for my gaming and android for my mobile devices because they fit what I want them for. But that doesn't mean apple sucks or all the other idiotic things you people say around here. In fact apple makes amazing software and hardware.

I'm only advocating not being a fool and if you're going to talk trash then know what the heck you're saying...which none of you do. It irritates me to no end when people think it makes their e-peen bigger to talk down anything that isn't what they have. It doesn't make you cool, or hip and ironic.

Everyone in the room who hasn't ever used an apple product for more than 15 seconds shouldn't be allowed to open their mouths as they're just talking out their arse to hear themselves speak....oh wait that doesn't leave anyone else here.
[Acer Iconia A500] entropy.of.avarice:
Way to go, dude. Not only did you refer to xda members as "Morons", but you seem to be pretty upset over this thread. The OP was making a silly joke about what is one of the primary advantages of the Acer Iconia Android tablet over the Apple IPad - why does this offend you so much, to the point where you are willing to make a post as rude as the one I just quoted?

Do I think you are taking things way too seriously? Yes, I do. Will I call you a "Moron" for expressing your opinion? No, I won't. However, I think you are getting a little upset over what is intended to be amusing.

If you would like to logically discuss the reasons many users feel the Acer Iconia to be a superior product (again, ports, cost, and flash support are my reasons why I find apple hardware to be useless) - that would be fun! If you are just going to hurl insults via the internet - I would recommend you head over to a forum full of die hard apple fans - you are much less likely to find anything that upsets you or causes you to type a post like the one you just did.
[Acer Iconia A500] aatifahmad:
Can we please not have flame wars over nothing!

I have an iPhone and the Iconia Tab, and I find both equally good in their own place. When I purchased this tablet about a month back, I had to choose between iPad 2 and Iconia, and I went with Iconia just because of the reasons mentioned here countless times (the Flash support, full USB 2.0 port, cheaper and generally better hardware). However, before iPhone I was the proud owner of a Samsung Galaxy S, a device that blows iPhone 4 right out the window when it comes to sheer hardware. However, my life is more peaceful since I switched, mainly because I am not flashing ROMs every weekend, looking for better features and builds.

My point is simply this: both Apple and Android have their own merits and demerits. Apple's closed system delivers the easiest and frankly, most convenient user experience. Android, on the other hand, not only features better hardware (generally), but also allows more flexibility in terms of what you want to do with your device and how you want to treat it.

In the end, it all boils down to a user's own preference on how they want to use their device, and what for. No reason to get all worked up about it.

And oh, I'd think twice before calling anyone at XDA a 'moron'. The guys here are the finest you'll find anywhere, and they love what they do, making Android a more pleasant experience for all of us.

P.S. to the OP, hilarious! brilliant idea!
[Acer Iconia A500] monkey10120:
Thanks for the compliments, glad everyonelikes it!

But I NEVER ment to cause arguments lol!
[Acer Iconia A500] fenixjn:
I believe the part about not having a virus, I'll also will give you credit on the boot issue but that part about your 1.3/2g macbook blowing your 8g quad core 'gaming' machine out leaving in the dust... just... no. Either you don't use that machine, you are comparing it on a basic task such as web browsing or you just lost all contact with reality (too much koolaid perhaps?).

To the OP:nice trollbait
[Acer Iconia A500] entropy.of.avarice:
Maybe his 8g quad core "Gaming" rig is running Windows 3.1? :-) :-) :-)

But for real - i wonder what his criteria for comparing a quad core 8gb system to the MacBook - something like loading a web page is not a real test of the speed of the machine - things like network latency and video device/drivers and web browser cached data can factor in much more then the processor and RAM on a task like that.
[Acer Iconia A500] chaosjh:
Wow...love trolls. Is there a site where iPhone users and android users argue? The trolling and responses here are funnier than the OP! And the OP was pretty funny! Lmao
[Acer Iconia A500] pov1:
Steve Jobs "we know whats best for you & you can't change it, end of discussion," = liberal mentality. I've always wanted to say that on this board. Oh I know I'll get slammed !
[Acer Iconia A500] EvoTastic:
Let us focus on the differences the OP pointed out on the devices. It's not like he was making any of it up. Is there a USB port on the ipad? No. Is the iOS basically the Android app drawer? yes. It was all in good humor until someone decided to get "serious" about this not so serious thread. Furthermore, when was the Macbook even brought up??? Here's a neat trick that other iFans have tried to teach me but for some reason it just hasn't worked. They swear by it though. Turn on your Macbook, spin it around, stare into the calming glow of the apple logo and repeat after me. "Jobs is God.... he has shown us the way.... sue anyone who says otherwise..."

BTW. Comedy OP, pure comedy
[Acer Iconia A500] tkolev:
I for one agree that Apple makes the best hardware. It's the damn users that are holding it wrong :mad:! And I tried the tutorial and it worked - the glued USB is great! Everyone should have one. Rummor is that the new iPad3 will have its charging port glued, so if Apple is doing it, it's fantastic! Right?

To the overly serious fanboy: I'm using iproducts for three years, so the 15 minute argument is just silly :-)
[Acer Iconia A500] Potatoofdoom:
Brilliant

That sir, is a brilliant money making idea. Probably get sued by apple and google for putting it up, but I'm sure it would get crazy traffic.
[Acer Iconia A500] monkey10120:
The god is no more!!!!! Steve jobs is no longer CEO! Warning, do not follow my steps or you will rip a hole in the space-time continuim sucking your non-apple apple tab into a parallel universe making it an apple tab running a non-apple os causing complete chaos as apple builds a lawyer army to take down your ultimate tab as it is the only apple device left after the fall of their god Stevus christ.

[Acer Iconia A500] The Odom Project:
The OP only forgot a few steps:

1) instead of just pressing the apps button, proceed to erase everything on your homescreen, and dump all of your apps on it in no order whatsoever.

2) go into the settings, and turn off all keyboards but the android one, as well as notifications

And most importantly,

3) remove flash, live wallpapers, and any app that modifies any part of the system in any way
