I can get it to stream video when using the local network, but getting it to stream over 4g isn't working, i just get a black screen. :(

put my comp in the dmz, no help, but it certainly seems to be the router causing the issue, anyone else run into this?
[Motorola Droid X2] TXI Kaze:
Well, flashed Eclipse .06...and went into a bootloop. Had no clue what to do (Didn't know how to boot into recovery without accessing Android...was a bit frantic) so I flashed the SBF over...immediately gave me Text FC, Skype FC, Keyboard FC, etc...and I can't get past my "Touch Android to Begin" Screen. SBF'd again...same issues.

Any ideas?
[Motorola Droid X2] hajabooja:
You need to boot into stock recovery and do a factory reset. The SBF only resets the /system partition, not the /data.
[Motorola Droid X2] mistawolfe:
Pull your battery, put it back in. Hold your volume button down while powering up. Once you see the boot screen with words in the corner, tap volume down until you see recovery. Tap volume up. Wipe data and factory reset.
[Motorola Droid X2] hajabooja:
Or mistawolfe will give you the step-by-step. Lol
[Motorola Droid X2] TXI Kaze:
Thank you both! Will try in a second. Hey Wolfe, how's your Bionic working for you? Considering getting one, but I've heard of some bad audio issues with the headphone jack.
[Motorola Droid X2] TXI Kaze:
Well, that was short lived...got the Android with ! icon. /:
[Motorola Droid X2] TXI Kaze:
...Nevermind lol, I'm an idiot.
[Motorola Droid X2] mistawolfe:
Dude, I'm loving it. It's what I wished the x2 was. 1gb of RAM is amazing. Phone just feels much quicker than my x2 does.
[Motorola Droid X2] TXI Kaze:
Glad to hear it. Seeing as I'm still within 30 days, might see if I can just trade for a Bionic...
[Motorola Droid X2] mistawolfe:
I only use headphones when I go to the gym, so I'll be able to give you an update on Never.

Ok. Monday or Tuesday.
[Droid X General] r3dlined:
I think this issue started with .602, but I'm not certain. After wiping the phone (and yes backup was always checked off) my apps once installed from the market do not redownload. Some that were installed dont show up on the web version of the market either. Did something break in the second GB update and was there ever a solution for this?
[Droid X General] Nate2:
It had been reported to Google. No fix yet.

See http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=17354

Apparently, the app download routine "quietly" crashes in the background, and subsequent apps don't restore.

I purchased an extended battery off eBay and yesterday, my first day using it, I got 13-14 hours on a single charge with very heavy use including wifi tether. But today I unplugged it, and after being at work for 2 hours I was down to 70 percent with little usage. Any ideas of what could cause this? Is there anything special I should do or have done before using it?
[myTouch 4G Accessories] odrecords:
Fixed. I passed out on my wife's side of the bed that night, to eventually find out her charger is crap. I guess she wasn't lying about her horrible battery life lately. Haha...
[myTouch 4G Accessories] tvotony:
How big is the battery

How much bulk does it give it?
[myTouch 4G Accessories] odrecords:
It does add extra width and weight, but IMHO it's worth it. I'll upload a pic if you'd like. It makes it easier to hold on to, also.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] CoNsPiRiSiZe:
I'm alright, just thought about the fact that my TPU case I just ordered wont work with it: (
[myTouch 4G Accessories] The Swiftman:
Would you mind posting a picture? I'm thinking about picking one up as well.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] odrecords:
I'm headed to the Diamondbacks game but I'll take a photo with my wife's phone when we get there. And as for the tpu case, I had one too. It almost fits with just the battery and no back! I was thinking of using a heat gun to soften it and make it conform.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] CoNsPiRiSiZe:
So do u think it would work?
[myTouch 4G Accessories] odrecords:
I might just try it, and be sure to post it!
[myTouch 4G Accessories] odrecords:
There's the pics. Great game BTW!
[myTouch 4G Accessories] The Swiftman:
Thanks for the pictures!

I have a Trident Aegis (great case) on my phone and it looks like if I cut the back out of it to fit the battery, the battery and the back of the case would be just about even. Very tempting...
[myTouch 4G Accessories] Gin.:
Just download Juice Defender, It works perfectly on my mytouch 4g and it doesn't take up much space :) .
[myTouch 4G Accessories] odrecords:
I use juice defender also! Great app. And would you happen to have a link to that case?
[myTouch 4G Accessories] The Swiftman:
The Trident case I was talking about? I would post a link but I'm not to 8 posts yet. Just search "Trident Aegis MyTouch 4G". If you want to buy one, grab one off Amazon, they're like $14 there.

I use JuiceDefender as well and it saves a boatload of battery while the phone is idle but while in use, it doesn't (and can't really) do much. I use my phone a ton and right now, the battery just isn't cutting it.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] The Swiftman:
Well, I went ahead and bought one (this one to be exact) and let me tell you, it was worth every cent. After calibration, here's what I've gotten so far:

That's on CyanogenMod 7.1 with the default kernel and the stock radio using Juice Defender Ultimate. I just flashed Miui and I'm hoping to push it even further.

Also, the back cover really isn't bad at all.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] CoNsPiRiSiZe:
Went ahead and bought that. Did you do anything to calibrate it or just as is??

Hopefully without JD it will have just as good battery ...

Also how much screen time and any battery intensive apps running for long durations such as Pandora/Skype for this 1 day 2hour battery life?
[myTouch 4G Accessories] The Swiftman:
1. Put it into the phone

2. Changed it to 100%

3. Reboot into recovery

4. Wipe battery stats

5. Reboot the phone

If it's reading something other than 100% when you reboot it (like mine did), repeat steps 2-5 until you get 100% at boot.

Good luck!

PS: Juice Defender is a great app. Highly recommend it.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] CoNsPiRiSiZe:
Thanks pal!

It just another program I can't ever seem to get the settings just right for... can anyone post up there backup for settings?

I have toyed with it for a week straight last month and couldn't figure it out, it actually made me feel dumb :(

I have ultimate btw. Thanks in advance. I know I seem like a total noob but that's okay :)
[myTouch 4G Accessories] CoNsPiRiSiZe:
Wow this deserves like 100 thanks..

How did u go about getting that version of MIUI? And really v2 of the kernel? Its on v10 now right? So y the big difference..?

Well yea what are u clocked at?
[myTouch 4G Accessories] The Swiftman:
^ It seems that I just have a strange device. Most people seem to be getting great battery life on the new DemonSPEED MIUIs- my device just won't do it. If you really want to try it out, PM me and I'll send you a link. If you're getting good results on the current MIUI releases, it's probably best to stick with them. 1.7.15 has some strange bugs.

SetCPU Settings:

Main:

Max: 1017

Min: 245

Scaling: OnDemand (SmartAss is probably better but again, it does strange things to my battery life. Just play around with it & see below)

And then my profiles...

Profile: Screen Off

Max: 576

Min: 245

Scaling: Conservative (Powersave might be better here, I'll have to play around with it some)

Priority: 60

Profile: Charging

Max: 1516

Min: 245

Scaling: OnDemand (use SmartAss if it works for you- see below)

Priority: 50

Profile: Battery <15%

Max: 768

Min: 245

Scaling: Conservative

Priority: 40

Something I should have mentioned above...

Download CurrentWidget and put it on one of your homescreens. This will show you how much juice your phone is using right that second. It's a great way to test out different settings to see how they will effect your battery life in the long run. Play around with different settings and see how low you can push that number without taking too big of a hit on the performance side. (HINT: Tap "Update Now" to update the number and hit the number to switch between milliamps, battery percentage, and volts.

If you need anything else, just ask. If you couldn't tell, pulling as much time as possible out of my phone is sorta a passion of mine. :D
[myTouch 4G Accessories] CoNsPiRiSiZe:
Amazing. I will post when I get the battery, waiting for it to b delivered. I'm very impatient :)
[myTouch 4G Accessories] jon_htc:
Would these be good settings in general?

meaning would you recommend this for any battery, even stock.

Also are you still running MIUI 1.7.xx?

I started running Miui during august and updated weekly ...

The best battery life i got was on ROM 1.10.7

Im running 1.10.14 and connection with wifi is great but i need to recalibrate for a better perspective on batt life.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] The Swiftman:
Those CPU settings are actually pretty standard as far as I know.

Yes, I'm using 1.7.15. Not sure what it is, but something about the newer versions isn't playing nice with my phone.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] jon_htc:
Nice, ill give those settings a shot!

In my earlier post i said i was running 1.10.14 ... it took a crap.

I reflashed and it started acting funnny again

so i reverted to 1.10.7 then updated to 1.10.14

ive had it for a couple days and it works fine now.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] em2drvr03:
Just got mine...will run some tests after calibrated and let you all know. I love the back cover also ...makes it feel better to hold
[myTouch 4G Accessories] CoNsPiRiSiZe:
Do u hve to calibrate it right away? Got like today too! :)
[myTouch 4G Accessories] badboi_zero:
Lol, I got mine today as well. That along with the TPU case. I love both. Maybe I can cut the case to fit the battery door.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] em2drvr03:
I was thinking about doing the same to one of my old tpu cases also.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] badboi_zero:
So I usually am weary with 3rd party batteries, be it they can keep charging and not have a stop-charging point, they lose their capacity to hold power more quickly than OEM, etc. Nearly a month later, how has the battery held up, guys? Is it trustworthy to leave charging overnight? Is battery life still exceptional as day 1? Share your thoughts and experiences.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] DANCCS:
Well, I have a non extended battery but is a 1700 capacity, 20% than original, and it's fine for me, I need my phone to be thin.

This is from today, all day at work, not much use .
[myTouch 4G Accessories] badboi_zero:
Those stats seem pretty impressive, almost as near as my 3500mAh battery I bought off eBay. But that was my first run-through with the battery.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] CoNsPiRiSiZe:
Bought that 3500 battery..

Disappointed as all hell.. What gives
[myTouch 4G Accessories] The Swiftman:
Notice the percentage Cell Standby is using? Something doesn't seem right. If you look at the MT4G General board there's a thread about me and some other guy having the same problem over the past few days.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] badboi_zero:
So I decided to cut up the tpu case. It's not the prettiest laser-cut work you'll ever see (well, not laser-cut anyway lol) but it works. I just used regular school scissors, tape to use as a guideline, and a knife to carve a guideline for the bottom cover's curves. It still fits pretty snug on the phone, save for the sides since the backside is now gone. But regardless, it is still form-fitting. The volume, power, and camera buttons still press in fine. So while the case isn't as super-snug as before getting hacked, the case still fits tight enough to not lose shape or come loose while being inserted and removed from a pocket or pouch. And it still serves its purpose of protecting the phone. Overall, I am glad I decided to guinea pig my $3 case. Now I have longer battery life and protection from corner drops and the chrome finish and soft material wearing down.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] DANCCS:
Well, I rather have a thin phone.

1700 capacity.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] badboi_zero:
What brand is the battery? Seidio? I like those numbers.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] DANCCS:
I bought of from Amazon.com , I was 10$. Google Mytouch 4g 1700.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] DANCCS:
Oh, the display says 2 hours and like 30 min. Btw, add 5 hours to that, cause I restarted the phone 5 hours after I unplugged it
[myTouch 4G Accessories] DANCCS:
Still, same battery as before, add 5 hours to that and it says 2 hours 53 min
[myTouch 4G Accessories] CoNsPiRiSiZe:
I will flash that pananche radio now... But still it just drains.. More than the other 3 battery's I have, stock and the two other 1400 mAh :-(

[myTouch 4G Accessories] Akulamenuri:
Why get a device specific extended battery as opposed to a USB-based one that can be used with several devices.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] badboi_zero:
I am using the panache radio with the latest official miui and my cell standby is only at 14% running at about 9hrs on battery. Maybe it's your coverage?

Some people don't want to carry around extra stuff.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] badboi_zero:
Maybe it's just the battery itself.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] CoNsPiRiSiZe:
How does one go about proving this?
[myTouch 4G Accessories] DANCCS:
Ok guys.

For those who are having problems with battery life, this is what I have done to fix it. I use to have problems with the battery too.

I have panache radio.

Backup my apps with the backup app that comes with MIUI

I wiped everything.

Flashed MIUI ROM from zero.

Start phone

Skip login into google.

Restore apps from backup app that comes with MIUI.

restart phone

Login into google

Skip restore this decide

Drain battery til zero

Charge until 100%

Calibrate battery with the app from the market

Use the phone all.day til battery does again

Charge again.until 100%

So far, my OEM battery and my 1700 non extended battery are going very good

Note:.i'm on wifi the 90% of the day.

I use my phone for google some stuff, text messages, couple pictures, google+, some twitter.

I unplugged the phone yesterday at 9 am. Right now, at 9 pm ( after almost 36 hours ) I still have , 12% (writing this took me like ,3% of the battery, little long hehehe).

Oh,my display was on for 1 hour and 36 min total between.both days.

Results..... Look at the.images .

note: I started MIUI from zero, downloaded only few apps per day to see if I had any rogue app.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] CoNsPiRiSiZe:
Just about done after initial setup man. Still after hecka heavy usage getting that battery down to 0 look where my standby time is.. My display was on for all but 5 mins or so.. Wtf

And a new one.. Forgot to hit refresh hehe
[myTouch 4G Accessories] DANCCS:
Dont worry, on this Rom ALL the time the Cell Standby will be the higher consumer... WhY!? do not ask me, never got an answer with good sense. I dont care while the battery last me the whole day without any problem.

Im testing the phone today with the WIFI off, to see the difference.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] badboi_zero:
Yeah my 3500mah battery can easily last at least a day and a half. I'm sure it's nothing wrong on your part. It's gotta be the battery. I was weary using generic unnamed third-party batteries. But this one has actually held up pretty well so far. It is worth it.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] CoNsPiRiSiZe:
Yea.. Just home from school, LMFAO 30% and all I did was text my gf like twice. NICE hahaaha
[myTouch 4G Accessories] DANCCS:

K 1400 mAh battery on RG 3.0 today
[myTouch 4G Accessories] photolarry:
Just ordered 3500 mAh battery

I cannot believe it only costs 9 dollars. And the stock battery charge is a mere 1400mAh which gets used very fast if not plugged in. So I got tired of trying to blame the rom or the kernel and am getting this sweet battery. Update coming next week. :D
[myTouch 4G Accessories] CoNsPiRiSiZe:
... 1400 mAh battery life is alright, i went out and partied last night. Still today after noooo charging it, some gaming today, and texting the entire time, voice calls and such this is my result. Could never get that with the 3500 mAh Battery.. But others are. So I don't know...maybe I got screwed but oh well in happy with my life on Royal Ginger 3.0
[myTouch 4G Accessories] DANCCS:
Well, that's good. Maybe the battery is bad. yesterday, my 1700 battery last me 17 hours, still had 32%, and I had the phone for 1 hour hotspotting to watch ABC series on my iPad , over 400mb transferred
[myTouch 4G Accessories] CoNsPiRiSiZe:
that's awesome. I think that these Batteries I call 1400 that I bought advertised as 1700 mAh are actually 1700.. they say 1400 on them, but when i put my review up on these batteries... the company contacted me and asked why i said what i did, i stated they didnt seem to be 1700 and that they stated 1400 on the battery.

They came back with a picture of what the batteries i got look like and said if they look like that then they should still be 1700, but they gave me a refund without me asking, which I appreciated.

So I don't know how I am supposed to check they actual mAh capacity of a battery.. but These might actually be 1700. :confused::confused:
[myTouch 4G Accessories] DANCCS:
Mine says 1700 on the sticker .
[myTouch 4G Accessories] CoNsPiRiSiZe:

[myTouch 4G Accessories] Snakecharmed:
How long are people able to go with a stock battery and letting the phone mostly idle with the screen off? Since I'm still waiting for a screen protector to arrive and I have two lines on T-Mobile, I've set the MT4G aside on my desk next to my router since charging it. I've used the screen for a total of two hours and had Wi-Fi always on until yesterday when I set it to time out after 15 minutes of inactivity. I have just under a third of the battery left and it's been over three days since it was last charged. I'm running VU 2.39 with the stock Froyo radio.

The steep drop at the beginning was me browsing Yelp over Wi-Fi for over an hour. I've mostly left the phone alone ever since.

With more regular use last weekend (primarily browsing over Wi-Fi and watching YouTube videos), I got something in the neighborhood of 14-18 hours before it was down to under 20%. I didn't take a screenshot of that, so my recollection may be inaccurate.

Given poor battery life, I would always suspect the battery in the absence of abnormally high usage. Li-ion batteries deteriorate from the day that they are manufactured, and exposure to heat (either from environmental factors or high-current charges) accelerates the degradation of their maximum charge capacity. That's why I keep my laptop batteries in my refrigerator at between 20-40% charge when they're not in use.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] odrecords:
My extended battery is still kicking ass and taking names...but since it doesn't fit a case it's suffered a few suicide attempts! My bezel is scratched, and even worse, my extended case lost a tab! I guess I can either make a case, or order a new battery just for the rear cover :-\

I am my mom's "little elitest"

[myTouch 4G Accessories] AkjKirti:
Still going super strong with MP1650mAh stock size battery over OEM1400mAh battery. At 4198mV it holds well over 1650-1700mAh at current 10-30mA draw per scale. Which gives me well over 24-28hours heavy usage or 48-50hours idle with slim or moderate use.

As I said before I am not going to use those real extended battery packs like 3200mAh which looks bulky. With my VMM and other memory management mods even at 368mhz-1017mhz I can go well over 25-30% use in whole day.
