[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] mat_oli:
is anybody currently using WidgetLocker as their lockscreen replacement? I just found out about this app yesterday, set it up and been playing with it, seems pretty slick so far, only negative thing about it is that the hardware camera shutter button no longer brings the phone straight to the camera app.

Is anybody else using WidgetLocker and experiencing the same problem?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] unclespoon:
Yeah widgetlocker is pretty nice because of the customization options. There's a program on the market called AGILE LOCK that's a great replica of the vanilla sense 3.0 lockscreen with customization options. You can make the camera app one of the quick launch icons and not have to worry anymore!

That is, of course, until we get some custom ROMs...
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] mat_oli:
yeah but the thing is, I don't even want to have to have the screen turned on before starting up the camera app, I just wanna hold down the camera button, and auto launch into the camera app.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] unclespoon:
Ah, I see. Then for now it sounds like you're only option is to stick with the stock lockscreen until a custom ROM comes out that will take care of everything you could ever want!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] mat_oli:
yup and hopefully that happens soon! for now, using the combination of widgetlocker and golauncher EX has really changed the overall look and feel of my phone..so it's keeping me satisfied for now..

Phone idle will always be the top battery killer for the average user. That's just because the phone is isle more than awake most of the time.

You can get an app like setcpu and have a custom profile to underclock your cpu while you're not using your phone though
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CaelanT:
What do you call murdering?

Is your battery dead in 2 hours, or do you see idle as the top user after 12 hours with 70% left?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ciloteille:
Why don't you charge the phone while on. When 100%I turn it off. (Don't unplug power in this whole process ) then pull battery. In a couple seconds you will see a battery with a ? In it. Then place the battery back in. It should say 5%. Let it sit for 3-4 hours. Boot to recovery and while battery status. If no recovery, boot to os and wipe battery status. Then phone idle ( the phone only shows "phone idle" to give you will a total of 100% since before your battery once had about 60% of normal battery life. Now that you have alot Battery, phone idle is a much smaller % than you had before.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tight686:
Not murdering but in a 2hr space 50+% of my battery is eaten up due to Phone Idle.

I'll try that fully charge trick tomorrow. Thanks.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ciloteille:
Before I did that I had ..... 4 hour talk time max. Now im 6+hrs. You'll see. Thank me later ;)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pukemon:
Put your battery in the witness protection program. But seriously if in 2 hours ~50% is gone, I don't think its phone idle. Also something to consider is terrible reception eats battery. And 4g even though its not true 4g those higher speeds come at a cost. I think you can guess what the cost is.

I voided my warranty.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ciloteille:
Even if I heavy grind on the phone until its dead.. it will not have a whole lot of battery left, nor will idle consume so much of his battery. So he needs to try the basics of battery maintenance first.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tight686:
Sorry guys I described that horribly.

I mean of OVERALL drain 50% is Phone Idle. Not 50% battery life.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pukemon:
well now that you describe it like that, use the search and read up on the many threads about phone idle. peeps can't seem to wrap their head around it. and read up on display time too.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stewge:
Phone Idle should be the remainder of everything else draining your battery, basically the minimum power draw. If you add everything up you should end up with about 100%. I say "about" because android rounds the numbers up/down to whole numbers.

If your phone idle is at 50% you're doing bugger-all with your phone. So long as your actual battery life is normal then there's nothing wrong. If your battery life sucks, then possibly your battery is dead/dying or something like the minimum CPU frequency is set higher than normal causing a constantly higher power drain.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ciloteille:
Well as long as he followed the steps. Phone idle will not take such a high % of battery usage on the battery manager. If he talked on the phone for an hour and did pandora for an hour. You would see idle would take a small % vs the talk time and pandora streaming combined/separate.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YorickArens:
Hi all,

First I now there is another topic open but there is not the answer I'm looking for.

I not realy sure about something. Last weekend my gps stoped working and tomorro w HTC wil come to pickup my phone.

The phone wat rooted and there was another rom installed on it. When I did this I have not made a nandroid backup. But now I did the following: I have flashed the newest RUU, Downgraded it to 1.32 to do S-ON, Then I flashed it again to the newest RUU.

My question is is it safe toe sent it back?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mohit1234:
Yes it should be perfectly safe to send as long as its S-ON and you've flashed an RUU...
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YorickArens:
Oh thanks then it's safe :)

Too bad that I'm going to send in for repair too. My device stops making sound, don't know if it was speakers or other problems.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaaystott:
If it was on 2.3.3 with the latest update I have noticed that playing music for a prolonged time on the Speaker using the Dolby Mobile causes it to squeak. Restarting the phone always works for me, maybe not in your case though.

[Windows Phone 7 General] eric12341:
the beats by dre is probably a software thing rather than hardware which could be fixed by an update to the sound enhancer.
[Windows Phone 7 General] drkfngthdragnlrd:
From what I see, Beats is hardware speakers & headphones, not software only (may include software too). This isn't to say that software couldn't help, but the current HTC WP7 devices have pretty poor speaker, at least in my opinion. My old T-Mobile TP2, T-Mobile Dash, & AT&T Tilt had much better sound quality.

Beats by Dr. Dre
[Windows Phone 7 General] samsabri:
Can't wait to see all the new Mangofied devices coming out this Fall. I'm most looking forward to what Nokia has up its sleeve since I think they don't have too long before they need to release their version of a swam song. HTC always makes good phones though, so if I feel the need to supplement my Dell Venue Pro I'll check out their offerings.
[Windows Phone 7 General] brummiesteven:
It's both, but it currently only works with headphones so the speakers will still be crappy (I have an Envy 14 Beats). The software controls the amount of Bass it amplifies in like an Equaliser.

Also, I accidently clicked thanks instead of quote, so you get a free +1 to your thanks meter :D
[Windows Phone 7 General] drkfngthdragnlrd:
Thanks for that additional information & the accidental "thank," lol.
[Windows Phone 7 General] brummiesteven:
Just to add, to anyone reading this. It might not necessarily be limited to the headphone jack, that's just how it is on HP Envy's.

HTC could decide to add a Beats Speaker aswell... but Beats technology is VERY expensive, the only speaker they have at the moment is the Beat Box which is #300+ (That's pounds, yes my Envy is a US import and I have no pound sign :P ), Having said all this, HTC do have a controlling share now.

And yes, the difference is amazing but I do use Beats Solos... Not sure how it would sound with standard headphones.
[Windows Phone 7 General] makoute:
They have poor sound period.
[Windows Phone 7 General] 937dytboi:
Nokia un imo has the best speakers hands down. Matter a fact one of the phones they unveiled today is said to be the best sounding smrtphome to date I believe its the Nokia 800. Wish it was a wp7 device and not Symbian.
[Windows Phone 7 General] eric12341:
this is probably a race motivated statement as u probably can't stand that an African American male invented what's possibly the greatest sound ever produced.
[Windows Phone 7 General] drkfngthdragnlrd:
I believe he was talking about HTC Device, not Beats. If that's the case, he's correct. The HTC HD7 has terrible sound from its built in speakers. The TP2 I used to have had much better sound. Still not great, but at least I could hear it.

PS: Even if he's talking about Beats. What makes this a "race motivated statement?" He never used any racist/derogatory comment towards the creator. He just stated his opinion of "something" having poor sound quality. It's these kind of statement you post that get you in trouble with the mods of this forum. Please, just try to not make posts like this anymore. You'll be doing yourself a favor.
[Windows Phone 7 General] eric12341:
he could've been more specific in his reply. these speakers are usually only intended for things such as phone calls, alarms, and podcasts/apps not for hardcore things like music and movies, that's how u blow them out. also the SRS enhancement does enhance the sound from the speakers to a degree.
[Windows Phone 7 General] drkfngthdragnlrd:
I agree, that is what the speakers are designed for, but why put them in a Phone that is meant to be a Media/Social Networking phone. They're fine for dumbphones like the Motorola RAZR, but WP7 is smartphone & is marketed as a media phone. It's essentially a Zune Phone with additional functionality. I may hate the iPhone, but must admit it has amazing sound even on the built in speaker(s). I mean, even some dumbphones like the Nokia Music Express has much better sound quality. We pay good money for these phones, whether they're Android/WP7/iPhone/what ever, they should give us some quality for that money.
[Windows Phone 7 General] drkfngthdragnlrd:
Oh, & while we're at it. include a $5 FM antenna in the device so we aren't restricted to using wired headphones to listen to FM radio, granted I'd never use it as I don't listen to music on the radio, but still. Having FM Radio & the sound enhancement of HTC Sound Enhancer restricted to wire headsets/phones is stupid IMO. I mean come on, this is the day of wireless technology such a BT.
[Windows Phone 7 General] eric12341:
the speaker in my arrive sounds tons better than the iPhone. and the Nokia music express is actually a Symbian smartphone, so of course it's gotta have a great speaker since its built for music.
[Windows Phone 7 General] drkfngthdragnlrd:
I'll have to take your word for it, never heard the Arrive's sound quality. I have a HD7. I wouldn't call the music express a smartphone, yes it has Symbian, but an older version of it that's lacking many features of a true smartphone. The Nokia Nuron now, is another story. My room mates have had both & the Nuron is much better & has great sound quality as well.
[Windows Phone 7 General] eric12341:
the SRS enhancement within the sound enhancer works without headphones and there are many radio apps that allow listening to local radio in more superior digital audio quality rather than analog which is what's found on FM Radio.
[Windows Phone 7 General] drkfngthdragnlrd:
Some of Sound Enhancement works w/o, but the main feature with the most effect does not & never has, even in WinMo. Do those radio apps work without headphones & if so, are they using the FM Receiver or some kind of Data Connection thing? If they aren't working without headphones & not using the FM receiver, than how does this relate to my antenna comment? That'd be an Apples & Oranges thing.
[Windows Phone 7 General] eric12341:
they work without the receiver although tune in does have the option but I dont know if it works without headphones that way. as for the antenna, its always been like that even in portable CD players.
[Windows Phone 7 General] drkfngthdragnlrd:
Yeah, I know it's always been this way. I'm just saying, OEM's could add this & it wouldn't cost much. I mean these are $400-500 phones. They're not cheap.

The Titan looks awesome, and those new camera extensions HTC has added (burst mode and panorama) are fantastic.

But good grief, that was a pathetic review. The engadget guy knew almost nothing about WP7 (asking why the phone doesn't have higher resolution? really?), and the HTC guy knew even less, and even less about his own product. I had to laugh when the "reporter" had to school the HTC guy on how to open the phone.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Strike_Eagle:
That HTC guy even claimed Mango doesn't support Twitter. At least he needs to mention that Mango does support Twitter by Microsoft, not necessary said : "Twitter is not from HTC".

But i like the way the "reporter" has to teach the HTC guy how to open the Titan. :D

I am getting hungry for this phone.

I have a pair of Nokia WH-701 headphones

nokia.co.in/find-products/accessories/all-accessories/headsets/wired-headsets/nokia-stereo-headset-wh-701

(removed "www" so that this would be a valid noob post :p and no this isn't spam :rolleyes:)

And the buttons(volume,call,play/pause etc) on these headphones don't work on my GT-I5800..Is there any way(maybe an app?:confused:) to make them work with our phone???

Is this an issue only with these particular headphones or is this the same for all headphones?If it is so then it would be of great help if our devs could cook up an app to make these compatible with our phone :)

Thanks in advance :)

P.S.: This is my First post so please forgive me if its in the wrong place :D
[Galaxy 3 Accessories] raveathon:
I dont think the buttons will work :(.. its a wired headphone so the harware is not supported.. had it been a bluetooth one then it would have been possible..
[Galaxy 3 Accessories] Keinbockwurst:
Yep, it shouldnt be possible to use the buttons.
[Galaxy 3 Accessories] szewc1:
No, it shouldn't work. It can't.

First of all, android doesn't support previous/next/volume buttons, only single button with multiple press options (single/double/triple, slow and long press). HERE you can find remote functionality for all android music players and some non-android as well, using standard headphones with single action button.

Below there is a table called 'P Version Compatibility'. It lists all of the android phone models that are compatible with standard TRRS (4 pin) jack. As of standard jack I'm thinking about that one which is compatible with iPhone and most of the music players (pins as follows: T, R1, R2, S). There is no Galaxy 3 specified in that compatibility table, which means it has kind of proprietary port.

In this proprietary port the microphone and ground pins are reversed (pins as follows: T, R1, S, R2). Many Nokia, Sony Ericsson and Samsung phones are equipped with it, so they are not compatible with standard headsets mic/button functionality.

To be able to use this additional functionality you have to use Samsung's headset bundled with i5800 or similar (as of headset jack) phone or use TRRS to TRSR adapter, like THIS one.

In this case buttons and mic are totally incompatible with android OS, despite the fact that both (phone and headset) have the same (propably) pins layout.

To sum it up:

- you can use mic/button in Galaxy 3 only with specific Samsung/Nokia/Sony headsets or using adapter.

- you can (try to) listen to music on 4 pin TRSR device using TRRS headset, but mic/button won't work, and sound most probably will be heavily distorted. And vice versa.

- you can listen to music without any problems using any 3 pin jack (no mic/button) in any 3 pin or 4 pin device.

- not sure about both of 4 pin jacks in 3 pin port.

For example Samsung Galaxy S had Samsung's proprietary port, Galaxy S2 has standard port. Life has just become easier :p
[Galaxy 3 Accessories] vag_malba:
Hello guys

My original earphones were broken and I thought that it would be a good idea to try again samsung's but another model this time.So I went for galaxy's note earphones that I found at ebay which says that is fully compatible with i5800

The fact is that they don't work properly. Their sound is very "deep" and when you are listening music singer is inaudible.The weird thing is that if I press the button for accepting/ending calls the problem fixes.

At first I thought that if I did some kind of "patent" to keep the button pressed everything would be fine( I use earphones mainly for music and not for calls) but if I keep the button pressed when I insert the jack earphones are not detected.

Finally I contacted the seller who told me that the one that they sent me were broken and sent a replacement but those have also the same issue.

Has anyone else the same issue?Can I do anything to fix this problem or it is a matter of compatibility so nothing can be done?:(:mad:
[Galaxy 3 Accessories] szewc1:
It's all written in my post above. Galaxy S2, S3 and Note use standard headset jacks, while older devices, like ours, do not. You can use only special Samsung's (or other OEM) TRSR earphones, e.g. from i5800/i5801/i9000, to be able to use remote control button. Every headset without button will work as well.
[Galaxy 3 Accessories] vag_malba:
Sorry mate don't get angry with me.I asked for further info because the name of earphones at ebay was "

GENUINE SAMSUNG WHITE STEREO HANDSFREE FOR i550 I5500 I5510 i560 I5700 I5800" but undoubtedly looks alike those of galaxy note.(forum don't let me post the link of the product)

So I was wondering whether it was a fixable problem or not
[Galaxy 3 Accessories] szewc1:
Cool, I'm a very calm person.

The seller most probably doesn't know about this issue, it's typical all over the world (sellers' lack of knowledge). That's what forums are for, since OEMs didn't want us to use headphones other than bundled ones in the first place (audio ports are much more unified nowadays, thankfully).

So the answer is: no, it's not fixable. The only way to use in-line button is to buy a specific headset that works properly with i5800 (bundled ones or other that are proven to be working with proprietary TRSR port).

Good luck.

Edit: Try EHS48ESOME.
[Galaxy 3 Accessories] vag_malba:
ok then I have to go for the same ones that was provided with the phone although I wasn't satisfied with their quality.Sound was very good but I faced serious problems with the speaker and in order for the others to hear me I had to hold it near my mouth. :confused:

That was the reason why I decided to buy another model.Of course I didn't know that it wasn't compatible with my device :p

Anyway thank
