Yes, that is different. If it is Adobe Flash you should be able to do the same on the website if you have flash installed.

Okay,so i found flash in the market, but there was no install button. How do I get flash then?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patruns:
Uninstall the market update so you are in the old market. Then search for Flash and you should have a button.

may be a dumb question but how do you know if you have the new market or old?

[LG Optimus Black] knoxious:
Hi There OB Users,

Just curious about your battery life. :confused:

Please post how long your battery can last.

What ROM and apps you using.

Mine can last roughly 20 hours on low usage (3G ON)

With Wifi ON, it's about 10 hours.

I'm using an app called "2X Battery" (can be found on market)

I'm running NOVA 4.5 ROM

Really appreciate it.
[LG Optimus Black] ziiljuks:
NOVA 4.5

Last three days I didn't use that much my phone so I could test how long does it go without charging.

Calling ~3min

WiFi - 5min

Camera - 10 photos

Winamp - 2h

Display was on about 1.5h

Other apps (no games) that don't use internet - 20min

At 5% I had to charge it for next day. So 95% = 2 days 18 hours. It would be 3 days if I didn't look what time is that often.

But for "normal" every day use, it's 1.5 days. I don't use internet because it's slow in my city (and it's optional for my plan). And at this moment I don't have WiFi router at home (I broke antenna).
[LG Optimus Black] lucasmalaguti:
Hey there.

here: NOVA v4.5

I use my phone a lot, like 2 hours of 3G network (lot of whatsapp, and quick web search). 3G aways ON

1 hour of calling

3 hours of music

The battery life is about 10 hours.

It would be great if i have at least a day, using it like i do. :(
[LG Optimus Black] Reasec:

[LG Optimus Black] ofpistan:
hi u all!

i'm using cm7 for few days but its feel like my battery wasted so

last night i'm install 20b rooted rom then i install setcpu and advanced taskiller, i set them to battery save mode (its like close all app when screen of for taskkiller, and for set cpu, make my cpu %30 use when screen off) and i charced my phone it was %99 before the sleep. when i woke up i look at my phone and battery percent was %67, basicly i freak out!!! I JUST SLEEP and something use my battery %32

so, i delete setcpu and stop all activity of taskiller, but nothing change, battery keep going down :/

sorry for my terrible english :)
[LG Optimus Black] WIIstpM:
Check if you have apps which refreshes between intervals (or even push notifications) and avoid them.. the best solution is to disable Wi-fi and, if you are not a demanding person by others, switch to airplane mode while you sleep! :)

EDIT: If it doesn't work, just go to recovery and clear dalvik cache :rolleyes:
[LG Optimus Black] FunkyGanja:
Unfortunately, along with many of the downsides of CyanogenMOD, battery life is an absolute joke. I think you'd be lucky to get over 24h of usage on that ROM. I have no idea why, but it seems that it sucks the life from your phone WAY too quickly.

For those having battery life issues, I'm on Zeus 6.11o and i've increased my battery life by just:

Using a good governor (smartassv2) to control CPU usage when screen off.

Recharging from dead to 100% seems to increase battery life.

And after using playerpro for an hour, surfing the net, using NBA.tv, 3G always on, an hour or so of Kairosoft gaming and i'm currently at 73%.

So life's good under the hood.
[LG Optimus Black] benhotw:

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KnowledgeBroker:
I've had my vibrant since it came out. They have 512 of ram hardware. I know we've gotten up to 344 or so with tweaking, but why can't we get the full 512 at all?

I have a feeling it has to do with Samsung or drivers, but with everything I've seen devs overcome I can't see why this is still a problem.

I have a nook color which has inferior hardware overall, but the biggest reason I see it as more stable is it never has memory management issues(running any rom). My biggest reasons to dump my vibrant for a Hercules or comparable is because of the constant ram issues the vibrant has that they wont, along with better hardware.

Maybe the answer is out there, but I haven't seen it in a whole year(so answers could be outdated), nor it brought up for a very long time.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dardani89:
That 512 MB is shared ram. So some of it is dedicated to the video processor which is built into CPU. Phones have to be slim and light I don't think well be seeing dedicated videocards and soundcards anytime soon.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mattymat:
The simple answer is that our system needs to set aside a certain amount of ram for the actual OS to use, nothing that we can necessarily touch. Certain apps occupy memory at all times and we're left with whatever memory hasn't been allocated by OS. I'm not the most technical but that's the general consensus from what I've read over the last 2 years of running Android.

If you want to really push the limits of what free ram you can achieve, I would highly suggest reading the OP of this thread. In there you'll see how you can adjust the way your system handles recently opened and closed apps. My phone feels a million times better, just using those simple to use tweaks/scripts.

Let me know if you need any help.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KnowledgeBroker:
I know the nook has no dedicated gpu, but it makes use of most if not all of that ram.. unless I am playing a graphically intensive game, it rarely drops below 100mb available ram, usually staying around 150+ until I've opened a ton of apps. Oh, and many phones that are coming out have a dedicated gpu, such as all of the variants of the samsung galaxy S II. it has a Dual-core 1.2GHz ARM Cortex-A9 proccessor, Mali-400MP GPU, Exynos chipset.. and awesome battery life I have heard.

Either way, my nook color doesn't experience the laggyness that my vibrant does until I have used so much it makes sense, but considering my vibrant stays around 60mb of available ram +/- most of the time..

You have no idea how hard I have been trying to find that app, I was going to try it when I was running simply honeyv5 because the memory issues were so horrible, but I couldn't find it again, and minfreemanager was the next best thing.. so I am VERY glad you posted it.

Are you using a specific set of pre-made settings, a specific script, or some custom setup, and which?

I am just trying to get my vibrant as usable as possible until the hercules and other comparable phones come out, so I can weigh them against each other. I don't regret my vibrant, but I wish I had waited a little longer so I had made a more informed choice.. if I can make it kickass again, at least for a few months, I will be a happy guy. Thanks again.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mattymat:
No problem man. I'm actually using option #9 in V8 right now and it's been a dream. It stops holding apps in memory after not using them a few seconds, which is great for what I'm looking for. What you'll find is that it manages the memory and how quickly things are slotted around (different priorities that android gives particular applications; Launcher, Dialer, Messaging, etc.). You can actually try every option and see which you find the best.

I started out with option #2 and then moved all the way down as I found things I didn't like in some, but liked in others.Give it a shot man!

- Mat
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KnowledgeBroker:
I'm actually using number 2 now in the allandroidv8 script, and if anything maybe it is too aggressive, but it has it's snappiness back. Looking at how they set the rom I'm using and the one before it, it looks like they didn't tweak it at all from stock cm7.. if anything I think they've made tweaks it more recent nightlies better than those roms! Simply honey(who brags about how great they are) and Biff ron both need some tweaking.. I'm gonna play with it, but thanks for posting what I was trying so hard to find :)

There's no free way for the Wildfire yet. Your options are:

- Buying an unlock code from your service provider / unlocking websites

- Getting S-OFF from someone who has an XTC Clip hardware box.

oh dear :(

its on 2.2.1

[Wildfire General] JayIce11:
xtc clip for s-off? i thought that was only on the wildfire s?

I managed s-off with software on standard wildfire

Forgive me if I am missing something ;)

AND

if you get s-off does that auto allow sim unlock?
[Wildfire General] HackT3k:
No, S-OFF not giving you Network unlock...

so, with S-Off you can not use any sim....

[Galaxy S II General] Dalex33:
Right my phone is acting up. Suddenly it says its charging while i'm out at the mall shopping, but worst part is, it is loosing power fast, like its somehow discharging. I tried charging it, but it wont work, it doesn't say it's charging when i plug it in, only after several reboots and pulling out battery. Another wierd thing, i power itself up whenever i plug in the battery. Sometimes it also recognizes the wall charger as an usb plug, and the usb charger doesnt really seem to work.

I have no clue to what is going on, and sorry for making another battery thread.
[Galaxy S II General] Hollow.Droid:
I had this problem just the other day. The phone had the charging icon when connected to nothing then suddenly launched the voice navigation app. I think the constant loading and apparent pressing of the home button (Even though it wasn't actually pressed) repeatedly drained the battery. To fix this I simply flashed my current rom and kernel again. I had previously been playing around with Signalboost which drained my battery so I concluded it had screwed up some system files as well. Re-flashing seems to have fixed my issues since.
[Galaxy S II General] conantroutman:
Hard reset or flash a different rom.

If the problem persists then chances are that its a hardware or battery problem.

[Galaxy S II General] StupidIdea:
No need to reset or flash anything. Your USB port got dirty or you you bended the USB PCB (this also happens if you forced to plug USB cable upside down).

Hi im looking for a bit of advice from currents users, I start back at uni in September and was considering buying a laptop but my friend threw in the eee pad into the mix, I would like to know is the eee pad able to compete with a laptop are there apps where I can word process, use powerpoint and the real deal breaker would be if I was able to annotate by hand pdf, docs and possibly ppt files or am I asking too much from it.

Thanks

Can anyone shed some light on this
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cozzykim:
The TF comes with Polaris Office installed.

It has word processor, spreadsheet and presentation which are, at least partially, msoffice compatible.

I've just bought Repligo Reader for navigating and annotating electronic and electrical diagrams, though I haven't had much chance to explore it yet.

You need to do some thorough googling to get an idea of whether the TF will suit you or not.

HTH. :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerrykur:
As much as I like my TF and iPad, I think you would be better off with a Windows or Mac laptop. There are some good "back to school" deals this time of year.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dagrim1:
For this specific need I'd say no... it doesn't suit your needs. Or, there are other devices suiting your needs better (notebooks). It does the job fine when used for that on the side, but it's not it's main aim.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Underwater Mike:
Get a laptop, or even a netbook. The TF would be great as an adjunct to a "regular" computer, but IMO it's not yet a replacement for one.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miniGT:
Yep you guys basically confirmed what I was thinking, thanks for the replies im not a fan of netbooks particularly so think I will wait and possibly get a laptop they seem to crashing in price.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ebackbone:
don't get why the other forumers said no but all the things that you mentioned, it's possible to do it with the ASUS transformer

WITH

the dock. however, maybe not up to the speed as compared to a netbook or a notebook but still, doable. if your requirement is not that big towards the heavy CPU processing part (i can only think of the powerpoint in your requirements), then i don't see why you can't consider it.

go try out a transformer from one of your friends and give it a go before committing.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spakka:
I'm in a similar position to you, the transformer is great for uni, but only as an addition to a PC you already have.

Before mine went into a bottomless pit of terrible asus support I used it a lot for taking notes using polaris office etc. It's quite basic but good enough for this, and is quite nice for watching iplayer etc.

The battery life is also fantastic.

But ... If you don't have a windows laptop/desktop then I wouldn't recommend it. I use mine with a high end desktop which I use for more advanced things.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miniGT:
I do have a desktop at home which I would use for reports etc I am a chemistry student and I am always annotating notes and pdf diagrams this is where a tablet could possibly be better due to it being touch screen could I possibly draw molecules on my pdf essentially I would hardly need any paper and all my notes would be digital instead of hundreds of paper copies
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cozzykim:
Here's a link to Repligo Reader.

I use it to notate electrical and electronic drawings, have a look and see whether you think it would do the job for you, you could always email the developers and ask about your requirements.

Spakka made a good point which I fully agree with, the TF is MUCH more convenient to use than a laptop, its battery lasts ages and it's instant on like a phone, it doesn't have to go in and out of hibernation or sleep mode like a laptop.

Downsides are the sluggish keyboard response and.....err I can't think of any others, there's even an OpenOffice document reader :cool:
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frankenbike:
A year or two from now, an Android tablet might cut it. But generally, schools are set up to accommodate PCs and grudgingly Macs. It takes a long time for institutions to integrate new technologies.

Right now, Android tabs are Internet/communications and media appliances. You can get a lot of real work done on them, but the brick walls where there's no application to address a certain need are thick, high and wide right now.
