[HTC Sensation] meteor999:
Will do, it will take a good week, to get a firm judgement on things
[HTC Sensation] usual_suspect:
I agree, even when feeling the back of the phone cover when its hot it feels like the heat is mainly lower down the back of the phone than where the battery is positioned. However, If its mainly the processor thats getting hot and not the battery, why does the Anker battery make the phone feel cooler compared to using the stock battery? ...Hmmm, could it be beacuse the Anker battery is metal its acting as a kind of heat sink for the phone? ... keeping it cooler.

Cheers
[HTC Sensation] jjdoctor:
this thing is damn confusing me so much... I have to choose between Anker and Eco 3D battery...

I just have a concept that Anker will not give much charge cycles compared to Eco 3D battery

...

what do you guys say? evo 3d or Anker?
[HTC Sensation] biggjayy01:
I agree with you on this
[HTC Sensation] silentsnow31802:
It is the battery heating up when using an EVO battery. The Anker does run cooler for some reason. The Anker does not report temperature, the EVO battery does however. The Anker is actually a 1700mah and the EVO is supposed to be a 1730mah but I have not tested it to confirm it. I will probably do this in a couple days to see if it does in fact hold as much as the Anker because I personally prefer OEM to aftermarket when it comes to batteries. Heat or not.
[HTC Sensation] jjdoctor:
I'll be waiting........
[HTC Sensation] mic180:
I use the Chichitec battery and it runs great. It does not get nearly as hot as with the original Sensation battery but I know for a fact that it can't go through as many cycles.

I got the two batteries and the charger for $30. I used one battery more frequently and discharged with every new ROM I flashed. I found over time that battery #2 (I labelled them) was not holding a charge as long as #1 which I'd discharged fewer times.

As such, I don't discharge my batteries anymore after reading that these kind of batteries have actually gone through a cycle when it's below 50% and complete discharging is bad for its life. Overall, I get more battery life out of these batteries than the stock batteries.

I've been trying out miui and I really love the stock HTC lockscreen you can download. I was wondering if it's possible to extract it and use it for other roms? Is this possible? Thanks.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watsa:

I saw that. It seemed kinda glitchy and it's just a widget. Have you used it?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watsa:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikel.canovas:
How is it?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watsa:
Its ok to be honest. Like all market lockscreen apps, takes time to show up, but works nicely after that
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikel.canovas:
Does anyone know how to replace the lockscreen completely not through an app?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
get familiar with your android.policy.jar.

you will NOT be able to port over MIUI lockscreen by just replacing a couple of files. it is built deep into the framework.

good luck.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikel.canovas:
that's disappointing. Thanks for the help anyway
[Galaxy S II Accessories] DarkShot666:
Who all would possibly be interested in something like this?

I'll be looking into making one, and I'm posting this here so that others could give it a try as well.

I, as possibly many who've gotten off the iOS bandwagon probably have some Apple-related audio accessories which rely on the infamous dock connector.

Because of Sammy's lovely implementation of 'docking' modes, using an adapter of sorts it's possible to both charge the phone and send audio through USB!

Basic idea:

The iPod's dock connector pinout is as follows: 5 and 6 are R/L audio in, 1, 2, and various others are grounded, and pin 23 is +5V.

That snippet was gotten from:

xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1249775

Connect the corresponding wires, and it should in theory, allow us to use one connector to output audio to any of the docks. Obviously there's no way to control media playback via the dock itself, but I figure this beats using the line-in that some docks do have.

I'll be looking into whipping up an adapter for such a thing, and felt like sharing the idea to those who might be able to do so before I can or would like to try themselves etc.

However, has anyone else considered something like this? I'm speaking specifically about taking advantage of the GS2's docking mode, as a similar adapter was made with an audio input cord. Comments or thoughts?

I didn't feel this was something to be posted in either Q&A or Accessories, however if I was wrong in doing so please by all means mods move it to where it belongs.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] dullah:
Sounds like a good idea. Make a video showing us the results.

Cheers
[Galaxy S II Accessories] punshkin:
i guess the first attempt would be to take an iphone-usb cable, microusb cable and the resistor

remove the plastics, wire accordingly, test and in case of success solder

parts of the procedure are the same as they are for makeing a jig
[Galaxy S II Accessories] yiannisthegreek:

[Galaxy S II Accessories] tomqman:
Anyone know where I can buy the 365k resistor in the uk?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] monoik:
uh, in a electronic components shop? ;)

Honestly, find yourself a local shop with electronics, and buy any resistor between 355k and 375k, it should work just fine. The smaller the better, 0,125W will do just fine.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] tomqman:
Ah i thought it had to be exactly 365 . ;) and only have a very small crappy electronics store were I live.

Will this do

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/360K-Ohm-Carbon-Film-Resistors-1-4W-0-25W-RoHS-x-100-/160654707509
[Galaxy S II Accessories] monoik:
TBH, I'd go to the crappy small store. Do you really need 100/1000 of those resistors? :cool:

The ones from eBay are 0,25W. Those could be to big to fit in the plug. If you're positive you don't want to find a local seller, try these, but those are 1000pcs :rolleyes: :

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1-6-Watt-360K-ohm-5-Through-Hole-Carbon-Film-Resistors-/200655439530

Another thing to consider. Look at the delivery times on eBay. :)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] goebish:
I did it with a 0.25W resistor (from the ebay 100 pack), it fit the plug.

CM7, Nightly. Captivate
[Samsung Infuse 4G] teiglin:
Well, probably most people here--including me--think the Infuse is a better phone than the iPhone 4, but the fact remains that the iPhone is more expensive. An unlocked 16GB iPhone 4 is $650, while a no-contract Infuse is $550. So if you want the iPhone, go for the trade. Or if you want to screw your buddy out of some cash, trade him, sell the iPhone, and buy an Infuse or SGSII with the proceeds. :P
[LG Optimus Black] miniclip22:
Hello to you as as all. I have some questions concerning the possibility of my OB being stolen. The first question is: how can I avoid my cell being booted into recovery mode without it being on?

Provided that my OB has NOVA ROM v8 installed and I can select to boot into recovery mode, (just by pressing the power button) then flash it, despite being locked. How can I prevent this? Finally, are there any anti theft utilities/applications that enhance the level of security of my device? In other words, what can I do so that a possible thief cannot do anything with my OB, including factory resetting/flashing ROMS?

Thanks in advance!
[LG Optimus Black] Paste A Name Here:
Flash the lg stock theme with the nova script's theme changer. I think then you won't have the reboot and recovery entries. I'd also like to hear about anti theft apps...
[LG Optimus Black] Xadroid:
There are many Android Antitheft Apps such as:

Wheres My Droid: It only has SMS sending feature after changing SIM card.

Prey Anti-Theft: My favorite, it has GPS tracking, SMS after SIM change, SMS activation/deactivation and an Account at preyproject.com to receive reports about your stolen phone.

Android Anti Theft Application: A new app just released today but it seems good.
[LG Optimus Black] Paste A Name Here:
Thx. What about androidlost?
[LG Optimus Black] Xadroid:
It has the same idea as Prey Antitheft but instead of having an account at their site (androidlost.com) to report to, They use your email to send reports to which is better since there is no limit to report number.

@miniclip22 there is only one Anti Theft app I know of that prevent (with ROOt) Hard resetting or Factory resetting. Its Name is LMaxi Anti Theft Installer. I don’t know about any app that prevent ROM flashing. But it would be nice if Moded ROMs developers add some kind of password required before flashing.
[LG Optimus Black] Paste A Name Here:
This is a cwm recovery feature. Who'll implement that?... I think it's quite a tough work.

Knzo....? Is the Force stronger enought with him to accomplish, ...even without his phone?

Edit: hey! Maybe Antonio can add a code (sim?) ask in the poweroff menu? Much more simple...

And then I'm thinkin' of some thief issues... Things with cable: pushing apks with adb, kdz flashing...

And you still have the erecovery...
[LG Optimus Black] Paste A Name Here:
@Xadroid: you can push apks in the /system partition, and they will no more be erased by a factory reset... using root explorer for this is the easiest way: go to /data/app, "move" the apk, go to /system/app, mount r/w and paste. Reboot. Might work. Or not. Depends of the apk and the rom. Never bricked anything in my case, at least, forcloses.
[LG Optimus Black] flaki7:
CERBERUS is an excellent anti-theft sw, it has 3 ways of functioning (the first based on sms and the others using its website).

Check whether it sustains a complete wipe of the OB.
[LG Optimus Black] Fraeco:
Hurray for thread necromancing :good:

Anyway. I just stepped into the android world using a Nexus 4. My girlfriend had her android stolen a few months ago and is also using a Nexus 4 now.

My first reaction was to install Prey Anti Theft on both devices so that, in the event they get lost/stolen I would have some sort of means to track them down.

However, if your thief is a bit smarter then a doorknob he'll wipe the device the first chance he gets, so your anti theft solutions go out the window.

I was wondering if there is some way to "embed" the anti-theft in the OS. So that in case of a wipe the anti theft solution will still be able to fulfill it's duty.
[LG Optimus Black] Nihiliu:
Odp: Anti-theft questions

Cerberus can be integrated with os, so wiping data won't delete it. And it can be accessible using dialer- app is hidden and only pressing specific number will launch it.

[LG Optimus Black] oroojass:
I recently downloaded 'lookout'. Looks promising. Using this app with anti virus scanning disabled.
[LG Optimus Black] ohadz:
All those antitheft apps have a big disadvantage: they all need the GPS and Data to be always on, so this leads to higher battery drain. In addition, you can't locate a stolen phone using GPS if it's in a building (it works only in open area)

I suggest you to keep your eyes always on the phone and keep it in your pocket and it will not get stolen.
[LG Optimus Black] Fraeco:
Am I correct in assuming that only root is required, and not a custom rom?

And even then devices get stolen. My girlfriend's Galaxy Y was picked from her pocket a few months ago while she was paying in a store. Same for my brothers iPhone 2 days ago.

From what I understand, if you have root those apps can turn GPS/Data on/off by themselves and listen for an incoming SMS message or activation via the web. So at best they have a background service running.

Pretty much what he said. Some roms will run completely different for some. I'm running Wildstang's rom and I'm only getting about 100 megs free while some other users are getting 180.

im flashing my g2x with a kernal and a rom so which do i do first, kernal or rom? or dose it matter?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
1. ROM.

2. Compatible kernel.

If you do it the other way around you might not be able to boot the phone.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] LordButtersI:
It's doubtful that you'd be unable to boot, more likely your custom kernel would be overwritten by the ROM's default and you'd have just wasted your time flashing the kernel.

But yeah, ROM first then kernel.

[General Topics] Zorachus:
I think the Samsung Galaxy S2 looks to be an incredible smartphone, when they first released the international version back in April, it was hands down the #1 top dog best device on the market. But now 5 months later the U.S. is finally getting it, but is it too late ? I hate to pick it up, and not even a month later is outdated, significantly by both the iPhone5 and Nexus-Prime. I am on Sprint and looking for a new phone to replace my Nexus-S 4G I am bored with, and has major radio/network issues.

Very soon two Super phones are about to be released, the iPhone5, and Nexus-Prime. I know most here hate the iPhone, but if the i5 comes out with a 4" or larger screen, thinner with better battery life, and the option to have Widgets on the home screen, i will be very tempted to pick one up. And then there is the phone from the 22nd century the Nexus-Prime, supposedly the most feature packed and newest next gen hardware ever seen on a smartphone.

I know you can always play the waiting game, and just wait forever for the next best thing, and then never have anything at all. But both the iPhone5 and Nexus-Prime are due out in October or so. Or will the U.S. Galaxy S2 easily be on par and close to these other two new devices ?

Bottom line question, why get the Galaxy S2 now over the iPhone5 or Nexus-Prime later ?
[General Topics] jmd1981:
For me, I can't wait. I need a phone now. I guess it depends on your situation really... if you can wait until it releases (October?) then it seems like a no brainer to wait until then. But, I think I'll pretty happy with the S2 as long as IC Sand gets on the S2 sooner or later through official or non-official channels.

Well if you think like that, would you get iphone 5 when it comes out because there will be a even more super phone, maybe galaxy s3, coming out in a few more months?

[General Topics] meranto:
I think the principle of a winning formula is having the tools/equipment that suits you best. That might actually not be the same as having the tool/equipment that is seen as the best by some group of people (e.g. Android powerusers)

Get the phone that suits you best instead of worrying about having "the best" phone by the standard of a group of reviewers.
[General Topics] tjtj4444:
If you have a decent android phone today, then wait for release of Nexus Prime before making the decision.
[General Topics] jmd1981:
If there's a confirmed release date (which I'm not sure about) and it's less than a month, then I see no reason. A couple of months.... really depends on how bad the current phone is. If there's nothing wrong with it, sure I would be content to wait until the far superior phone comes along. I'm certainly not advocating waiting 6 months or longer...
[General Topics] badtzo:
I think the best choice is to get the galaxy S2 and wait a few months until custom ROMs for the nexus prime be available. Also if you wait you probably get a discount for you new phone.
