[Motorola Droid X2] Cheapxj:
I never noticed the battery problem 'cause I'm used to rebooting my phone every morning anyway (coming from a long time windows mobile user) that stupid piece of crap got me in that habit, but this phone is fast as all get out. you can hit reboot, go take your morning whiz and it'll be back up and running before you even start peein!

it's like the playstation 3 of smartphones, just be patient and wait for the software to catch up with the hardware.

maybe adjust your usage a little too. turn off all your stupid data-hungry apps. the 3g radio in this thing sucks juice like nobody's business. but you can play games/music/movies all day long in airplane mode.

I've already gotten 7 solid hours of playin music + stupid zombies while traveling. I'll turn my radio on only when I want to be bothered.

it surprises me that even the wifi doesn't kill it like the 3g radio does. if I'm on wifi all day long my battery life is AWESOME. I've even taken out the 3g tweaks from my eclipse.5 and now I have no trouble getting 12+ hours between charges. the absolute worst thing for the battery is music + wifi tether (I like using the phone hooked to my speakers for general music listening 'cause I don't miss any notifications)

the fact of the matter is, these phones will never have good battery life until the radio gets a serious update/overhaul. it seems like it transmits at FULL power constantly even if it's not necessary.

you want battery savings? turn off background data and put it in max batt saver mode. it doesn't make things that much slower and as soon as you wake the phone it reconnects pretty quickly and updates whatever you were missing out on. that and honestly, it's nice to not be notified about every piece of junkmail that reaches my inbox on a daily basis. people can text you just as easily as e-mail, and if they can't respect that, they don't deserve your respect in return.

who even had a cellphone 15 years ago, let alone all this other crap that comes along with "smart" phones. we all got along fine without them before.

come to think of it, I have never had issues with music skipping either, but I don't let my phone frivolously piss away data either. something to think about, but I remember the days when I paid by the MEGABYTE for data service too.
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
Dunno how others feel but I liked this post.

I recommend juice defender I love to set it to turn off all data while the screen is off. And I set it to turn it on every two hours for a minute to retrieve gmail and such. Has helped save so much battery lately and works great. That way I don't have to mess around with going g into settings to turn off data and on every time I wanna check. I also leave it in my notification bar so I can just pull down and tap and it cuts my data. Also have seen I can set it to turn off and on data when using any app I just haven't configured that setting yet. I have noticed up to 4hrs more battery when I have juice defender enabled .

I agree completely on the radio. Even when I have a very very good signal if im not using wifi and pulling data from 3g my battery has been almost completely drained within a few hours of heavy use just browsing the web. Its crazy how much juice it sucks down.
[Motorola Droid X2] dkahs23:
These are definitely words of wisdom. I think everyone is expecting to run there phones full blast and have no drain.... Maybe they need to hook a solar panel to there phone so it can be charged at all times...lol :D
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
Haha I was actually going to buy one of those if they aren't huge since I like to use my.phone a lot when im out on a "beer finding" day. Go bar hopping to crafted beer bars a lot and its nice to not have to ask the bartender if there is an outlet I can use hahaha.

I do think the battery should be lasting a little.longer than it does tho wit moderate use than it does 4 me
[Motorola Droid X2] garywojdan81:
Read an article not too long ago that described a company that's pioneering a solar charging layer for the touchscreen.
[Motorola Droid X2] jeremy46er:
I will definitely check out juice defender. I am by no means complaining about the battery usage at all. My phone still lasts all day with the same amount of use I have always had.

I had just noticed a difference going from Eclipse .2 to .5, and it was even mentioned by Nitro that people may experience a higher battery usage with this rom. I was simply wondering if anyone had applied a script or modified a setting (as stated in OP) that made a difference. I tried to change the cpu values in the script but it didn't make a difference for me. If anyone did make a change please post the change you made and how you made it.

Sounds like rebooting after charging, or using software to modify data usage is what works the best for now.

Hi,

Anybody using samba filesharing app?

http://nl.appbrain.com/app/samba-filesharing/com.funkyfresh.samba

I use it on my desire and works like a charm, however it doesn't work on my archos 101 with uruk 1.5

I install the app, allow superuser access and then I get a "Unable to find a way to execute shell commands" error.

I have superuser 2.3.6.3 with su binary v2.3.1-ef

There is a new binary available but I can't install it (I need to flash the zip), could this be the issue?

If so, how do I flash this zip?

Restart in Boot menu => recovery system and then what? update firmware or developer edition menu and flash kernel and initramfs?

thx!

Cheers

A friend of mine is on att and asking about help buying a new phone.

He asked about an Inspire, but I said no because it's got old hardware by now, time to get a nice dual-core phone. Not interested in Atrix or any other motocrap phone. Prefer HTC, but not even sure they have a dual-core on att yet, Holiday soon maybe? release dates anyone? same with the SGS2 variant, when's that coming out?
[General Accessories] OwenW71:
In January and February of this year, the press was just gushing about the Samsung announcement that they were going to 20nm process for flash memory, and were introducing Class 10 SDHC in 16, 32 and 64GB sizes by April.

Does anyone know what happened? My guess is that the fabs are running, but the silicon is ending up in SSDs, rather than in microSD cards. I'd love to get a fast 32GB module, but they just don't exist right now.

Has anyone found these in the wild? The Samsung production site does not show them as being available, or even in production.
[General Accessories] andrewxu:
A 64 would be useless. Most devices don't detect, and I think Android isn't compatible with it as a whole OS. Well not yet. Unless your gonna use it for something else.

As for the question, idk haha sorry. I just didn't wanna see you buy a ridiculously Expensive, awesome, and useless sdhc
[General Accessories] OwenW71:
Who ever said I wanted a 64GB? More to the point, where are the Samsung 32GB microSD cards at?
[General Accessories] tama_dc:
I don't know if I would go further more than 32GB, it would be a computer, or a tablet, and not fitting my phone.

but yes, I'm waiting for a 32GB microSDHC from Samsung, since I see that info too, a few months ago..

[Shift General] zsohu:
Hi!

When I using My shift (win7 home premium) it gets very hot! Is this normal? It don't turn off because the heat but I worried about this high temp. A guy who reviewed (saw on a portal) the shift says his model was not even warm. :confused:

Zsolt
[Shift General] Flanimal:
The reviewer was fibbing. My Shift gets very warm too after a while.

The heat is related to how much CPU you are using, so if you run any CPU intensive virus checker or background utility, that will cause extra heat. It's easy to check, just hit ctrl+alt+del and watch your performance meter. My Windows 7 running Outlook 2010 and Opera averages around 10% when I am not doing anything in this instance. Note the average will vary as the OS has to do things from time to time.
[Shift General] zsohu:
I opened up my shift, examined and i think it have a terrible thermal design! What is the use of the cooler?? There are no heatsinks just a big cover which collects all the heat. I think about some case modding to provide better cooling, or making that cover form copper and place a small fan to it.
[Shift General] ftoz:
Hi, its normal. But i would like to see better cooler in it. When I am laying on bed and and ventilator holes are closed shift often go shut down due to high temperatures. One way was undervolting cpu a gpu, which mean a little lower temperatures . But some line cooler or heatpipe will be better
[Shift General] trsix:
normal?

I don't think thats normal. Had mine about 4 months. The 2nd month all of a sudden getting hot. Stopped by a sprint store then took it in back and did something not sure what unfortunately. Cool now. Barely warm after running bluetooth and winamp etc for 5 hours straight. I'm guessing it's whats running in the background.
[Shift General] mshauny:
well, it appears to be one of HTC weak points, even my wildfire has the same problem) best thing to do right novels put your shift somewhere there is enough ventilation:
[Nook Touch General] jago25_98:
Just waiting for my Nook Touch to arrive...

is there any internal pictures of the Touch?

I'm interested in the differences between the Nook Color and the touch. I believe they are very similar, but not identical, which is why CyanogenMod runs on the color but not on the touch. What are the differences, what drivers need to be added to have customs ROMs on the Touch?

When my Touch arrives I'll start poking around the filesystem and update this thread. Hopefully the kernel modules are kepts as modules rather than built into the kernel.

Edit :

Touch - http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/it...replaceable-same-processor-as-nook-color/2639

Color - http://www.zdnet.com/photos/nookcolor-teardown/487636

- and chipsets in the Color for kernel module drivers to compare with http://nookdevs.com/What_we_know

So to compare:

(Touch in Italics

Color in Bold)

3.7V 1530mAh, 5.66Wh Li-Ion battery (Model No: MLP305787)

6″ Pearl e-ink screen with Neonode zForce touchscreen

^ well, the Color has a real touch screen whereas the Touch uses a IR grid

800MHz Texas Instruments OMAP3621 applications processor

^ color has Samsung S3C6410 ARM processor (no major change)

Texas Instruments TPS65921B Integrated Power Management IC with USB HS Transceiver

Texas Instruments TPS65181 Power Management IC for E Ink Vizplex Enabled Electronic Paper Display

Texas Instruments MSP430F2272 16-bit Ultra-Low-Power Microcontroller

Texas Instruments CD74HC4067 High Speed CMOS 16-Channel Analog Multiplexer/Demultiplexer

Texas Instruments 2624I

SanDisk SDIN5D2-2G NAND Flash chip

Samsung K4X2G323PC-8G08 512 mobile DDR SDRAM

Lattice Semiconductor ispMACH 4032ZE CPLD

Jorjin Technologies WG7310-2A 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi SiP module

^ Color has CyberTAN Technology (802.11 b/g) (libertas sdio sd8686), CM7 uses tiwlan_drv.ko More info: http://www.jorjin.com/WG7310-20.html

Now to determine what these parts are using for kernel modules...

Any other links for reference:

A slow mention at Cyanomod7 forums: http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/30624-nook-simple-touch-mod/

Cyanomod7 for Nook Color, to study that image for alteration: http://www.cyanogenmod.com/devices/nook-color

Other notes:

Important - the Nook Color is known as the Encore on the CM7 github dev site:

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_bn_encore

edit: Definately no bluetooth -
[Nook Touch General] lolokai:
good summary. Anyone know the best way to get GPS with nook touch? I can't select 'allow mock locations' in settings to try tethering.

Any progress on cyanogenmod 7 for our device? The CM7 site thread points here and this thread points there.. but nothing else out there re CM7 for NT.
[Nook Touch General] Golomidov:
And what about partition table of internal flash? Does it look the same?
[Nook Touch General] jago25_98:
I wonder what happens if we just try loading CM7 onto the Touch that was designed for the Color.

Probably the screen input will fail. I've noticed that there's no /dev/input/mice

maybe there's something custom in /dev/socket

I'd love to have a go at CM7... but it's dicey. What would help a lot is being able to run live straight off the SD card so that any testing is done there without changing the nook itself.

re: partition table: I'll have to have a look. I'll see if I can push something like fdisk to it. See this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1241728

re: Mock locations. I don't have that option either. I'm only on version 1.0.0. Perhaps we need to upgrade?
[Nook Touch General] Golomidov:
Hi all

I suppose many of us are dreaming of having CM (I hope :). So as Nook Color and Nook Touch are almost the same from technical point of view I tried to install CM on my Nook Touch. I was sure that at least touch screen wouldn't work so it was just an experiment.

1. Installed Rommanager - success

2. Flashed CWM (4 Nook Color) - success

3. Reboot into recovery - failed (hang)

Any ideas? :)

P.S. Moderators, I suggest to move this topic to android development, not general.
[Nook Touch General] Himalayas:
Which hardware specs is right?

I'd like to buy an ereader, like Nook Simple Touch, Kindle Touch, or Sony PRS-T1. And I want to know the hardware before I buy it.

However, I am very confused about Nook Touch specs.

It says 800 MHz CPU + 512 MB memory here.

From B&N website, it is 600 MHz + 256 MB memory link www.barnesandnoble.com/u/Compare-NOOKs/379003181

Another post (mikecanex.wordpress.com/2011/06/13/nook-touch-rooting-june-13th-news) says it has a TI OMAP3621 CPU but the clock is 600 MHz (BTW: does BogoMIPS : 597.64 in the post mean 600 MHz?) and 228 MB usable memory.

According to wiki (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texas_Instruments_OMAP#OMAP_3) OMPA3611 clocked at 800 MHz is used in Nook Simple Touch.

Which one is accurate? If it is 512 MB, I will go for Nook Touch as it will be much better to load Android apps.

PS: Microcenter says Sony PRS-T1 has 256 MB memory. (www.microcenter.com/single_product_results.phtml?product_id=0375288)
[Nook Touch General] ros87:
The NST has 2GB of flash memory used for internal storage + 512MB of DDR SDRAM

Edit: Just looked inside mine, it has a Hynix 256MB chip, so the 512MB claim over at techrepublic doesn't hold water.

---------- Post added at 11:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:50 AM ----------

Did a check on my NST just to see how much of that chip is usable:

<6>[ 0.000000] Memory: 256MB = 256MB total
<5>[ 0.000000] Memory: 232448KB available (3328K code, 798K data, 144K init)

That might not be what you wanted to hear ;)
[Nook Touch General] eded333:
It's clocked at 800mhz even if cpuinfo reports diferently :)
[Nook Touch General] Himalayas:
Then the official B&N website give us correct memory (256 MB) but incorrect CPU frequency ( 600 MHz instead of real 800 MHz).

It is not as sweet as I thought. But at that price, we can't expect more, right? I may start looking at Sony PSR-T1, then.

first of all root your phone....

then mount your system as r/w by the help of Root Manager........

Then use root explorer to copy Twlauncher.apk from sdcard to /system/app............

it will ask for overwriting the previous one....press ok. done....
[Galaxy 3 General] raja4sure:
no need to stop that process.....

if still not happening..then install any other launcher like launcher pro etc....and set that as default ....then do your replacing job by the help of root explorer as in mentioned above post.......

after that you can uninstall the extra launcher...if u want to use Twlauncher only...
