[About XDA developers] dcnblues:
First of all, I can't say how much I LOVE the 'Similar Threads we found' popup when posting a new thread title. Brilliant.

My problem is not unique to this forum. I've wanted to respond to a thread or post a new one, worked at it for a while, clicked on either 'preview' or 'post,' and lost a good chunk of time's work when the server logged me off and didn't let me page back to save my text. Everytime it happens I swear I'm going to get some kind of keystroke saver, that I'll NEVER let it happen again, yet it does.

I don't know if there's an easy fix, but just being able to save that text would save a lot of screaming (I can't be the only one this has happened to). Many thanks on an excellent forum!
[About XDA developers] MikeChannon:
This probably happens to all of us from time to time. Of course it's most likely to happen if it takes you a long time to write your post. You likely then suffer from a timeout for apparent inactivity and get logged out.

The golden rule is, whenever you are making a longish post ALWAYS copy it into your PC memory BEFORE clicking send/post etc., as a precaution in case you have been logged out. You cannot rely on going back a page and hoping the text is still there. You should always copy into memory at any time the server appears slow as well, due to the fact it may not be able to process the post at the time you press send.

when you sign in do you click that little box that says something about staying logged in?
[About XDA developers] pulser_g2:
When on secure computers I run, I tick to stay logged in. It has not been an issue for me for a good while. If you take over an hour it might complain...

But just hit ctrl+C before posting :)

Also, chrome seems good at letting me hit back and still have my post

- I am synced to my gmail account's contacts

- When I change contacts details on my phone (let's say, i add a note or an email address or a number), it will automatically be deleted (i guess when being synced to gmail).

- when i change details on gmail, changed will be saved.

- i would like to obviously be able to change the info on my phone, and have it synced to gmail

thanks
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
Something is broken with your sync settings... This behavior is NOT the default.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] benyben123:
hmmm... that's weird....

any suggestions?

Thank you!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] tyshemi:
Go into settings- accounts and sync-click on google- make sure your selections are checked.

Next if that is already done delete your Google account and re add it,this time making sure that all is checked

And also leaving auto sync on will be the best option to keep synced up

UPDATE: MODS REMOVE THIS THREAD, FIGURED IT OUT WITH SOME MORE DIGGING, THANKS!

Ok, I have the TMO Leo, currently running Tyween's TyphooN cm7 port. I need to reset the phone and going to privacy->reset phone does nothing for me.

I tried doing a clean install of the entire rom, but I'm running into issues everywhere with magldr or the phone in general.

First off, I've downloaded both WMDC 6.1 and HTC Sync (Although htc sync doesn't load after many attempts to repair, and uninstall/installs I get the error : The Program can't start because the tlib_log.dlll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling... Blah)

But the computer recognizes the phone's driver now.

I tried running Task29 to no avil, and then figure I'd skip that set, tried to reinstall magldr (being that booting with power down ONLY boots into the boot loader (also tried reinstalling CWM from the app on the phone, also to no avil)). The computer shows that madldr was installed successfully but, it won't launch into it. Yet I know magldr should already be there, since it's needed to load the current ROM, which works great (minus the the unable to reset thing...)

My other thought was trying to restore the phone to WM and just go from there, but being that WMDC won't recognize the phone, I can't really do that as far as I know.

Any help would be greatly appreciated! ASAP too :D

Side note: Need to do the whole reset because friend is currently in need of a phone, and I'd rather not give him my main phone (mytouch4g) because I'm a bit partial to it lol, don't hate on me for that please :p
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbsrailfan:
Hi

I have installed Z's FPS Uncap hack and have noticed significant drain in my battery. I checked my battery usage stats and the breakup is as follows:

Display: 64%

Phone Idle: 11%

Cell Standby: 16%

Apps & games: remaining

Total time unplugged: 11h 34 mins.

This was when I had just 10% battery left. Please help someone, I want to go back to the 30fps capped limit when my battery used to last 18hrs with heavy usage.

I have tried all battery calibration methods (including the xrecovery method and the market app method), nothing works for me.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iridaki:
From those 11 hours, how many hours was your screen on?

In battery stats, the Display part refers to the brightness battery consumption, I think.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scoobysnacks:
I tested with both, and with the same usage noticed no difference in battery life whatsoever
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JasonStein:
open the file install-recovery.sh with root.explorer in system/etc Directory

delete the code:

mount -t debugfs debugfs /sys/kernel/debug
echo '0' > /sys/kernel/debug/msm_fb/0/vsync_enable
umount /sys/kernel/debug

And you will back to 30 fps cap
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JasonStein:
And I think to buy another battery is a better choice.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mmokk:
I don't know why are you so surprised about that. Phone must generate 2x more frames than it used to. It's obvious that battery doesn't like that.

Calibrate your battery
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shahkam:
Your getting 11hour? Lol can barely get 8 and your complaining oh god lol
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbsrailfan:
I guess I have actively used the phone for 3-4 hours out of that 11 hrs.

Thanks! Will try out and report.

Calibration makes no difference...please refer to original post.

Trying to re-cap it and see if it makes a difference.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iridaki:
Exactly!

There has been a "calibration frenzy" going on lately,

which is just plainly WRONG.

People who calibrating their batteries WAY too often

are ruining their phones' chance to function normally.

Batterystats.bin is a file generated for some reason.

Deleting it more than once in a blue moon is not going to help anything.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] negrobembon:

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aar0nsky:
is your phone ever in standby? or do you leave the screen on all the time lol. no but seriously why would fps uncap affect battery drain at all, since its not changing the power being used, just unrestricting a limit that your the processor can handle at its current power.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Montague:
so it looks like some people said FPS uncap will drain battery usage while some do not agree, which could be true or are they all making sense in some way?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] negrobembon:
Maybe it has something to do with apps installed, and other configurations, since everybody has different results

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] WeRigMathTests:
So, I got my DInc2 in early July.

The next week, Froyo root AND the OTA Gingerbread update were available, so I decided to root with AlphaRevX, install CWM, and play around with some ROMs, thinking I'd wait until Gingerbread OTA was rootable. I decided I liked GingerSense, and stuck with it.

Until now. I just found out that the OTA update is rootable. No problem, I think, I can just pull it down OTA, right? Nope. I got the android with exclamation point screen. Oh, duh, I tried to install it on top of GingerSense!

OK then, I'll put it back to my stock backup, then pull the OTA update.

Nope. I tried temp rooting into the stock backup, and then re-bloat-ware-ing it since I had frozen some of the crapware. NOPE!

I just want a stock Gingerbread install to rip into.

Is there a noticable difference between GingerSense and the OTA? Should I just stick with GingerSense?

TL;DR

I petition the wise overlords of XDA: I'm running an HTC Droid Incredible 2 on Verizon, rooted from stock Froyo. I have CWM installed, with a GingerSense ROM as my primary as well. I can't for the life of me figure out why the OTA update won't stick, no matter what stunts I pull.

~WRMT
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] shoman24v:
Most likely because you're rooted. I think the ota doesn't work. Install RMKs debloated ROM and update your radio.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Clutch McWinner:
I was under the impression that there is a stock recovery check, and no OTA will ever install over a custom recovery.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tpbklake:
Yes you are correct. The is exactly the issue that is preventing the OTA from running.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jeremytn86:
There is no difference if you install the gingersense update and also the firmware update, which updates the touch screen and radio, so just do that, if your missing the Verizon crap that's not in gingersense, download it from market and, bam, you have identical setup as ota, just with root and s off...
[Motorola Droid X2] converge12:
I might trade my Thunderbolt for a Droidx2 tomorrow.. any thoughts? I had the first X and I loved it. I traded it for an incredible for the roms.

Can anyone confirm or deny the following:

x2's camera > TB

x2's video/gaming > TB

4g is a plus but not a dealbreaker for me.

my opinion: i like motoblur over sense (if i don't modify, which is a reason i am considering trading)

any input would be great. i know it is late, especially on the east coast but i am hoping for some quick responses. thanks
[Motorola Droid X2] flamebeats:
Do it"!
[Motorola Droid X2] mistawolfe:
Up to you man. The TB is definitely more desirable due to custom ROMs. However, this phone is future proof, and based on the recent acquisition, we might be in good shape. P3's preroot is money debloated...
[Motorola Droid X2] converge12:
it is, arguably, a hassle due to the 4g. sometimes you will lose 4g and need to flash a new radio/kernel/rom and no one else will experience the same issue.
[Motorola Droid X2] converge12:
has an OTA been released with gingerbread yet?
[Motorola Droid X2] LordRalh3:
Yes but it's recommended to use p3s prerooted gingerbread, and other than the 4g the X2 stomps the Thunderbolt

from my X2 roaming the north
[Motorola Droid X2] converge12:
yep, i am going to do it.

just put my TB back to stock and it runs so much better haha. the downside of that is the fact i hate sense and it is a total battery hog.

is netflix available for the x2 stock? or does the x2 need to be rooted with a modded netflix app?
[Motorola Droid X2] ferg40:
Available
[Motorola Droid X2] LordRalh3:
I would very much recommend using the eclipse rom as well... Very simple process and very much improved over stock

from my X2 roaming the north
[Motorola Droid X2] Xyzodiac:
After playing around with a Thunderbolt and an X2 i defaulted to the X2, and I must say with all the tweaking I've done it is hands down the best phone I've ever had.
[Motorola Droid X2] strifejester:
Never owning a TB but having owned the X and now an X2 I like the X2 for its speed but the memory is a little lacking every now and then a game will tell me the memory is low and that it may close unexpectedly. I have always liked the Moto quality for reception and other components and having toyed with a few other HTC phones, locked bootloader and all Moto still gets my bet too.
[Motorola Droid X2] ilovesoad:
I came from a Thunderbolt. The lack of roms on the x2 makes me sad considering the large dev support for the tbolt. Honestly, the proformance of a non overclocked cm7 bolt was about the same as the x2 in the real world.
[Motorola Droid X2] Robin M:
Just curious.... How is it that you are able to "trade" phones at will? Dont you have a service contact with time restrictions?
[Motorola Droid X2] garywojdan81:
Don't know about the tbolt, but there were so many missed call issues on the fascinate that Samsung sponsored a swap thru vzw for fascinate owners. We got to choose between the x2, the dinc2 or the charge.
[Motorola Droid X2] huedawg:
I have switched many phones on my Verizon contract and never charged . Why would they charge you , you are still paying for their service .
[Motorola Droid X2] SwiftLegend:
If flashing custom roms and 4g is important to you, then go for it. The X2 should be getting more dev support soon..hopefully..

Oh and I'm pretty sure the TB's camera is better than the X2's. Consumer Report rated it as the #2 or #4, I can't remember, best cell phone camera. The X was last, and it has the same camera as the X2.
[Motorola Droid X2] Robin M:
The conventional wisdom is that Verizon allows you to "upgrade" (at the upgrade price) only once every 24 months. While you can trade "upgrades" between various phones on your service contract, you must pay the full retail price of the phone to change phones before being eligible to upgrade.

When I got the X2, I asked if I could trade it for a Samsung Galaxy S2, if that were to be released in the next few months. They said that after 14 days I was stuck with the phone until upgrade time. They said they never resell a used phone, even if returned within the original 14 days. They told me they send them back to Verizon who "refurbishes" them and then they may resell them at a discount online.

So I'm still wondering how you are able to work out these trade deals? Anyone else ever hear of this, other than the Samsung sponsored offer?
[Motorola Droid X2] huedawg:
Your thinking wayyyyy toooo much ....

lol, lets say you find a phone on craigslist and you want it . First you check esn to ensure it can be activated on another account , then if you like it , then simply get it and swap your phones on your Verizon account .. Understand now ? It really is , just that simple .
[Motorola Droid X2] Robin M:
Oh. Well yeah, you can do that. :o
[Motorola Droid X2] danomat1073:
Before trading out for a droid x2 you may want to look into all the audio problems people have reported. I personally have experienced very bad audio skipping while using my x2 and no hacks tips tricks super charges or roms have resolved the problem. I keep my fingers crossed for a solution but if I were you and liked listening to Pandora Slacker or any other audio on my phone I would stay away from the x2 for now
[Motorola Droid X2] bobhilton6969:
I currently own both the TB (CM7) and the X2 (Eclipse), the TB is undeniably more phone than the X2. Personally in the future I will never purchase another phone with less then 1gb of memory. Even 768 vs 512 is noticeable.

If you do get the X2 make sure u run something other than stock, and make sure you run the V6 script because 512 mb just blows.

Plus the qHD is a joke, the TB has a wayyyy better screen. I watch 2 HD videos on both my phones and on the X2 you can see every pixel. HDMI out is nice though, after some tweaking...

If I wasnt locked in 2 contracts and had to choose 1 phone out of these 2, I would choose the TB just based of off hardware performance. Have yet to see anything from the dual core yet..... maybe closer to ICS?

And I hate both Moto Blur and Sense, I'm not comparing these 2 as stock by no means. And I do not recommend stock on either.

Camera is better on the TB, its not bad on the X2 as long as you have ALOT of light.

Gaming is also better on the TB, though its not terrible on the X2, just a little slow starting and ending..... thats do to the lack of memory...
[Motorola Droid X2] converge12:
yep, i regret trading the TB already.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Laquox:
Greetings Everyone,

I was wondering if anyone could tell me or point me in the right direction of how I can clear the agenda section on 7720. For some reason I cannot delete past Facebook events that I have attended. I already turned off the feature not to notify me of events I am not attending, but I cannot seem to delete these old events that are cluttering my agenda section.

Secondly, I was curious how do I get the phone to remind me of Facebook birthdays? Do I actually have to manually add every contacts birthday information directly into my live.com or how does this work because it does not remind me of my friends birthdays that are both in my contact list, on my live.com, and on my facebook.

Thank you for any help. =D
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prjkthack:
You can clear old Facebook events you have attended by removing them through Facebook. Go to Facebook, look at your past events, at the bottom of the event page is a link to remove the event. You need to do this for each event.

Of course, this removes any events you have in your Facebook history, so if you want to keep that, then you need to just ignore the past events.

Don't know about the birthdays one, haven't touched reminders at all.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Laquox:
Just a quick update for anyone having this problem. IF you have never used the calendar on live.com it will ask you the first time what your timezone is then once you do that it will sync all your calendar birthdays! I got the idea from this thread where he manually added his birthdays. All I had to do though was set my time zone and it fixed the glitch.

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] pixies2:
Hi,

I have in my car (Fiat Punto Evo) an original sound & radio device which has Bluetooth Mono (without A2DP/Stereo support) hands free system. When it receives something to play (like an ongoing phone call), it automatically mutes the sound device and plays the audio that the phone transmits to it through Bluetooth Mono.

While using a GPS application ("Waze" in my case) with my X10 Mini, I've realized that the application announcements ("Turn right", "Turn Left" etc...) are only sent through Bluetooth Stereo (tested with Bluetooth Stereo headphones I have) and not through Bluetooth Mono.

I know that for Samsung Galaxy S with Android 2.2, there is an application called "Super BT Mono" which solves this issue and works quite well with GPS application announcements.

Is there any application like "BT Mono" which works with the X10 Mini with the stock Android 2.1 installed?

Will a customized 2.2/2.3 ROM installation allow me to use this application successfully?

Thanks!
