[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Elluzion:
Hi!So just some background info, I have had the Samsung Fascinate prior to this phone and had 2 replacemnts through verizon. I was having data issues and the phones had hardware issues so they gave me the Droid Incredible 2.

Anyways, I have been getting extremely slow verizon downloads lately. Sometimes apps will take 10 minutes or even more to download when I remember that they used to download in about 5 seconds one or two months ago. I am NOT a heavy data user (as in i'm not in the top 5%), and I have the Unlimited data. Browsing speeds, market download speeds and everything is slow and getting really frustrating. (download speeds around 10-200 kbps!!) [tested with speedtest.net]

Does anyone have any ideas? I have called verizon and they said their was some kind of market (non android) block on my phone since last march, but disabling that didn't really change much.

Let me know if anyone has experienced similar issues within the past month or two or has a fix! Thankss

(i was going to try to root and flash roms/new radio to see if that would help? but idk :/)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] romma1:
My apps seem to download about the same on this phone, as my Original Dinc.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] klabit87:
I flashed the 722 radio and that helped me alot.

My speeds were slow also. Everywhere I went.

Now when I am at home they are halfway decent (700-1200 kbps) (I am normally on wifi anyways)

And at work they are better. (1700-2200 kbps)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ardian_075:
can i have 720p recording camera on my HTC HD2 with windows mobile 6.5,now i have win7 and the camera its perfect,but i like windows 6.5 because for me its better and garmin working on 6.5 no with 6.5 the camera recording only VGA od MPEG4
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] baraks:
as far as i know it's not possible on WM6.5 due to system limitations...

the only way to get 720p camera on the HD2 is some SD android builds or WP7
[Motorola Droid 3] zeroktal:
My d3 keeps asking me to update. I'm rooted and some stuff frozen. What are the odds it will update if I unfreeze everything? More importantly, what are the odds it breaks root?
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
From what i've read; unfreeze, update. It will break root but you can re-root np
[Motorola Droid 3] zeroktal:
Thanks a bunch, Im at Disney, so Ill test later :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JasonK75:
So I am tech savvy and yet I am not sure I have the best method of using the phone for driving down yet, and was curious what others have experienced.

When driving to Michigan last weekend I had the bluetooth turned on to sync with my Chevy Cruz. I had the driving mode turned on and it is synced with my Facebook and twitter accounts. I was using google navigation and streaming music via google music, and had the phone plugged in by the audio jack to the car.

I never got anything from the driving mode at all, then again I didn't really have anything happen by Facebook, twitter, or sms.

The music and navigation worked fine through the car's speakers, but when my girlfriend called me she could hear me, but I could not hear her at all until I unplugged the audio jack and then I could hear her fine through the speakers via bluetooth.

Anyone else experience this, or know of a work around? It could be that I'm just using it in a stupid way?

On a side note, when I was talking to her through bluetooth the navigation would say the directions not by the speaker phone, but through the bluetooth as well.

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] kakouto:
I have flashed my phone with FirstUA and the Google maps application is missing!

I cannot find it in the market and when i sign in to Google to download it, says that this app is not available for my country. With original roms I had this app and was working great.

Any suggestions?

Thank you in advance!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] CallMeVentus:
Download the Google Maps apk file from any website and see if it works .

Make sure the one you downloaded is for MDPI ! :)

Forever living in my Galaxy Ace using XDA App

Thanks dude ....

Terima kasih ya ....
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] scotty1223:
Anyone know if an engineering or patched bootloader exists for the HTC merge?
[Xperia Play General] Deoxlar:
This is good news to our community since SE used to be anal about these mods.

They are giving 20 phones out to the CyanogenMod team and helping them out with kernals and debugging.

http://www.androidauthority.com/son...-modders-gives-20-phones-to-developers-25742/

Honestly, I couldn't be more happy with all the changes Sony Ericsson has made.
[Xperia Play General] DrROBschiz:
that is too cool!

Can't wait to see where development goes form here!
[Xperia Play General] TheAugust:
Very cool! That's a much better stance than Motorola is now taking (so much for their unlocked bootloaders).

Considering how many they gave, I'm going that includes the CDMA R800x!
[Xperia Play General] Deoxlar:
Haha I'm pretty sure they won't exclude the cdma versions since its so different from the gsm. Fingers crossed though.
[Xperia Play General] yyz71:
Loving my xperia play more and more each day :-)
[Xperia Play General] Simmo3D:
Good on Sony Ericsson. Great move!!
[Xperia Play General] AndroHero:
I'm pretty sure they will. Keep in mind the R800x officially cannot be bootloader unlocked. If they officially support custom roms on the R800x verizon will not be happy.
[Xperia Play General] idan_mo:
that's a great news!

maybe we'll see features in our xperia play combining the goods of cm7 and our phone.
[Xperia Play General] Cat_On_Droid:
Hopefully now that SE support development they can release their Kernel sources earlier
[Xperia Play General] Auxilium:
Loving the news.

My Atrix runs CM7 and it makes the device so customizable and better to use, so having this on the Xperia Play as well would be a plus.
[Xperia Play General] Penguin Soldier:
With great news like these my atittude for Sony Ericsson is changing for the better.

Unlocked bootloaders and trying to help the community out. So much better than what Motorola and HTC have been doing recently.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jazzneel:
I bought Need for Speed, madden 12, and Adrenaline 6 on my epic, and ever since I bought my GSII, the need for speed + madden shows up in my bought apps, but it won't let me download it (after installing the games)-like the extra files required for playing the game...is there a reason for this? is it b/c of my SD card? I can't even re-buy these games..

Also, Adrenaline 6 isn't even showing up on my bought apps...I'm kinda saddened by this. Anyone else having these issues?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Devi0124:
Possible reason is if you are using an lcd density changer some apps won't dl.. You just hasn't to switch it back to 240 and dl it then switch it back
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] silversx80:
Did you buy them from the market?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] amwworks:
I had the same problem. You have to remove the newest market update and your purchased item should download just fine. Just note that the market will auto update as soon as you launch the old one so download eveything you need before exiting.

To do so got to:

Settings> Applications> Manage Applications> All (at the top)> find the Market> Uninstall updates

Once your done report it to google.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riotburn:
So i had this idea that I could get a pretty good Honeycomb-like lockscreen by combining widgetlocker and circle launcher. The only problem is that I need an application that will perform the unlock action. Anyone have any ideas on this?
[LG Revolution] AplMik24:
Hey guys, i was just searching some cases and accessories for my LG Revolution and i found this: http://www.mugen-power-batteries.com/mugen-power-1800mah-extended-battery-for-lg-revolution.html

I was wondering if anyone else ran across this, or better yet, has this to give me some insight on purchasing it or not. Especially with Minecraft Pocket Edition coming out I am going to be doing a lot of 'battery tests' :)

Edit: Here is a new link with the battery actually in stock! http://www.ebay.com/itm/MUGEN-POWER...ccessories&hash=item5d3074f878#ht_5858wt_1348
[LG Revolution] Myhigh:
Anything called MUGEN POWER makes me question it.... same stuff is out there for laptops which are usually junk
[LG Revolution] majorpay:
That was my first thought... I've seen a researching claiming that Mugen had been passing off batteries with far higher mAH than what they actually claim (as a matter of fact, they stated in many cases, their high mAH batteries were worse than stock).

If anyone goes for this, I'd be curious to see a live study on it.
[LG Revolution] xjli:
mugen power? they make honda parts :D
[LG Revolution] vladtehimpaler:
Dang, was looking for a better or 2nd battery for mine - guess I'll keep looking
[LG Revolution] middlehead:
Anybody know if the Revolution's battery bay is the same as any of LG's other current models?

Seidio has one of their slightly-denser batteries available with compatibility listed as "LG Thrill 4G/Optimus 3D/LG G2X/Optimus 2X." Capacity on it is 1750.

I obviously can't link to it yet, but I imagine people can figure this out: seidioonline_com/product-p/basi17lgthr.htm
[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
They have a 99.9% positive feedback rating. I'll pick one up when I get paid on the 15th and see how it does.
[LG Revolution] okishead:
I think you should go to their official facebook page and check tons of reviews that they post there:

http://facebook.com/mugenpowerbatteries

I use 3300mAh on my Nexus S and I'm happy because the phone lives for 1.5-2 days. Mugen guyes definitely suffer from tons of fakes produced in China.
[LG Revolution] adrenaline_rush:
I'd rather buy 2 oem ones for $20. They're like $11 on ebay. $43 for a battery with 300 more mah? Doesn't sound like the best the best spend of cash personally
[LG Revolution] dmtaub:
I just picked one up. I've been through 2 cycles so far and I'm getting slightly better battery life. The packaging says to go through 3-5 cycles before I'm going to see an increase. I'm going to start carrying 2 batteries as I usually only get about 8-10 hours of battery life and that just doesn't work for me as I use this phone for work and it is not always near a charger. I'll let everyone know as I have more use with it.
[LG Revolution] ALTANertive:
Thanks, please keep us posted. I'm generally leery of aftermarket batteries since they usually don't work as advertised or worse yet, leak or explode. But if this works well i'd welcome the extra battery life.
[LG Revolution] xjli:
x2 dude thanks for checking this out, ill be watching
[LG Revolution] Android Power:
I wouldn't buy any battery unless its from stock or Seido. I had a non-stock battery that was from ebay. Brand New. It was fried in a week.
[LG Revolution] Jasbo:
so how is the battery life now that you have had it for a while? is the 1800 mah worth it?
[LG Revolution] dmtaub:
So, I've had the battery about 2 weeks now. Probably been through about 10-12 cycles (I like to full kill my battery before charging). I'm seeing an increase in battery life, not exceptionally significant, but an increase. I would say about 2-3 extra hours with normal use and a much better idle drain (approx 5-7% per hour)

I would say that it was definitely worth the cost. I still have my other battery and a wall charger for it because when I'm traveling, I will need two batteries for sure (late nights and such). BTW, I'm running Re-Homed with Launcher Pro. I do fair amount of texting, calling, surfing. I have all processes automated on the data side with 2 e-mails being pushed, Facebook, and Twitter. I'm a relatively heavy user of date, almost 2gig per month.

Hope that helps. Let me know if you have any other questions.

EDIT: Okay, so I was out of town this weekend and I'm thinking I am going to need to get a different phone. Even with the battery, I'm still disappointed with the battery life. If I have a long day and night, my phone has no chance to make it. Really sucks! Not sure what I am going to do, but this won't work. I think the 4g just kills the battery.
[LG Revolution] Jasbo:
ok that sounds good to me... Thanks for doing the trial on this, and I would agree it seems worth the money.. 2 or 3 hours at the end of the day is definitely worth it.
[LG Revolution] Android Power:
I did 10 GB in two days last week...Netflix :) anyone know about cases that support the extended battery?
[LG Revolution] dmtaub:
You're there reason we have tiered data plans :(

Don't know about cases.
[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
You're not grandfathered in to unlimited data? Sucks to be you! LOL j/k.
[LG Revolution] dmtaub:
I had to just recently switch due to a job change. Got what they had.
[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
That sucks, what data plan did you end up going with?
[LG Revolution] scotttkd:
Mugen 1800 on its way, will post results, but had great performance with a mugen 1800 in my tmob G2
[LG Revolution] scotttkd:
Ok, mugen 1800 arrived and is installed and charging up........weird though, the revo did not want to recognize it as a valid battery at first....took 2 reboots, but seems to have settled down and charging now
[LG Revolution] Nihs07:
hope everything goes well, I would love to have alonger battery life instead of carrying around 2 batteries
[LG Revolution] scotttkd:
Had no self control and went for the downgrade/update to gingervolt..... battery is def better than stock, but now have to do some side by side with the new rom in order to be fair....will update
[LG Revolution] dmtaub:
Okay, so after the Gingerbread/gingervolt update, my battery life is substantially better. I'm getting close to a day and a half on one charge which is amazing! I left it unplugged over night and went from 51% at 11pm to 28% at 7am. Normally my phone would have died. The Mugen battery is now definitely worth it.

---------- Post added at 01:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:04 PM ----------

I'm on the 2gig max plan. Don't really need more than that. Even on T-Mob w/ unlimited data before, I only broke 2 gig once. So far, I'm using about 1.5gig a month.
[LG Revolution] scotttkd:
I am also seeing significant increase in battery life.....was at 70+ percent when plugging in last night, was under 20 with revolt1.5 on stock battery after average day....i am not a heavy user, but still a nice increase.
[LG Revolution] ChandlerC:
I would love longer battery life.
[LG Revolution] DelFrogo:
i see no point in buying an 1800 for an extra 2-3 hrs. I'd rather buy the 3000mAh and deal with the larger thicker battery.
[LG Revolution] bhp117:
Since the mugen 1800 battery is bigger than stock 1500, how long does it take for it to full charge?

Is it bigger in size than the stock battery?

SuperCharged GingerVolt B-) R U?
[LG Revolution] scotttkd:
I didnt notice much of an increase in charge time....has to be somewhat longer than stock, but not an issue for me.

If i needed epic battery life i would go with the 3000 also, but to make it through the day without charging AND able to use stock holster and such i am happy with the boost that i got with the 1800.
[LG Revolution] bhp117:
Thanx for reply

I'll think about getting this or a 4200 portable usb battery charger for the same price

SuperCharged GingerVolt B-) R U?
[LG Revolution] da_morales:
DayDeal?

Did you check DayDeal.coml? They have stock, extended, and external battery options, all Revo specific and have a reasonable return/exchange policy.

GingerVolted LG Revolution
[LG Revolution] ALTANertive:
Picked up a Mugen 1800 last week.

After a couple of charges, today after 16 hours I'm down to around 33% with very light use.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Today I was checking and it showed me update was available

So i downloaded it over air , then it went through some steps and then rebooted and then gave me an error saying software won't update.

I donot have unlocked bootloader only a rooted phone.

I am current on 2.3.3 and have LT15i with rogers

:confused:

Help ?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kokbiel:
Did you remove any bloatware? That could caus problems with updates...
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CarbonX13:
The only real explanation to this would be that you removed some of the bloatware that you couldn't uninstall without rooting (e.g. through Titanium Backup).
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uyo_kun:
mine can connect perfectly... Maybe you delete some bloatware that makes your arc too hard to connect to PC?

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ivanovic:
Hello,

I bought a mini hdmi cable.and although I have image on tv the colours are not that good and the aspect ratio a little bit weird.

Is there any way to edit hdmi settings?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cavsoldier19d:
I too have this issue, and I have a 2010 top model Samsung LCD HDTV. I've looked around and couldn't find any settings for this. Either ASUS or Google (android) needs to implement HDMI out settings. In the meantime, I suppose we could play around with the color settings on the tv itself for a temporary solution.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grinnerD:
I have an Lg 42 from 2ish years ago, it's not top spec, but fairly cheap at the time.

I have a setting on the TV to change the way it scans the input and therefore correct the aspect ratio. it's a function called 'Just Scan' instead of 720p, 1080p etc.... I had to use this when I had a windows7 media center and I was missing the taskbar at bottom of the screen.

This TV also has ability to change colour/brightness etc... settings for each input, so hdmi1 input can have different picture settings from hdmi2 input and so forth

So do check to see what can be done on your TV settings to make it play nicer with the Transformer.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kiwi32:
I also have some occasionnal problems when connecting to my 47" TV,mostly the honeycomb status bar is cropped at the bottom.Don`t know if its a problem with the tv or the tf.Maybe a software update can help with those issues...
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kriEv:
try changing the aspect ratio on your TV to Point by Point. I had to do that on my TV for my PS3 and my laptop.
[Galaxy 3 General] hadi_xman:
Dear All,

If I clean cache and delvic cache what will happened..?
[Galaxy 3 General] kyrillos13:
If you wipe cache, nothing will happen. If you wipe dalvik-cache, the next reboot will take time to rebuild it:)
[Galaxy 3 General] hadi_xman:
hhhmm but what they both do exactly..??
[Galaxy 3 General] kyrillos13:
Cache is needed for the market downloads. Dalvik-cache: is a program cache area for the program dalvik. Dalvik is a java based virtual machine that is the bases for running your programs (the ones that have the .apk extension). In order to make access times faster (because there's not JIT (just in time) compiler installed by default), the dalvik-cache is the result of dalvik doing a optimization of the running program. Sounds confusing. It's similar to the prefetch files in Windows.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xXJay_RXx:
Well I'm filing for insurance claim due to the fact that i dropped my phone so many times that my WiFi simply isn't working anymore. Since I'm filing insurance claim n not with Verizon, will I need to return this TB to stock or can I just wipe everything and ship it out like this?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YankInDaSouth:
I have never filed a claim so I am not 100% sure, but I am fairly certain that remember reading on a few occasions that the insurance company does not care about root.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loonatik78:
I've filed through Insurion a few times. They have NEVER seen one of my phones show up in their building. It's either "lost", "stolen", or victim of some other mishap that's made the device unreturnable. They don't ask a lot of questions in those events. Just give them the $100 and get the new phone.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hangtenboy:
I would highly recommend returning it to stock, but the fact that you dropped it so many times makes me agree with loonatik. Otherwise, Verizon has informed me that physical damage phones that come to their warehouse for warranty replacements will get charged like 300 bucks or something.:mad:
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xXJay_RXx:
That's what happened with my claim. They said I had to send it to Verizon and with them charging for physical damage or whatever I don't want them to charge it so I'm forced to "lose" my phone if I want a phone with working wifi again -_-

[HTC Sensation] PeterGuru:
Okay, I searched for "email icon" and got no results, so please bear with me.

Where on earth is the email icon in the image below?

I've found a number of similar-looking icons in the framework-res and SystemUI files, but no matter how much I modify these icons to what I want, it keeps displaying the default black and white icon shown above.

Where is this sneaky icon, and what do I need to do to display my modified icon?

Thank you,

Peter
[HTC Sensation] Lozone:
It is In the email.apk
[HTC Sensation] PeterGuru:
Let's try ...

Thank you! I'll extract it and make the change. Let's hope it works. I'll let you know.

Peter
[HTC Sensation] PeterGuru:
Can't find it ...

Well, I extracted all the files from my ROM, Android Revolution 3.6.1, and I can't find an email.apk. I see the Gmail.apk in the System/app folder, but not email.apk. I also check the framework directory, and nothing there, either.

Am I looking in the wrong place?

HELP!

Thanks,

Peter
[HTC Sensation] Lozone:
Sorry I didn't mean email.apk.

I meant in the email apk.

If you are using gmail it is in that apk.

I also found a few icons in HTC resources apk in the system/framework folder.

I might be wrong, so I will double check when I get home.
[HTC Sensation] PeterGuru:
Didn't work! ARGH!

Sorry, didn't work.

I extraced all the files from Gmail.apk, and the HTC resources apk, modified the mail icons that even looked remotely like the one in my original image, flashed the file in recovery, but once all was said and done, I still get the default black and white image. I simply want to change it from black and white to colour, preferably bright yellow.

Any ideas?

thanks,

Peter
[HTC Sensation] Lozone:
What app are you using for email?
[HTC Sensation] PeterGuru:
I believe it's Gmail ...

My email account is through Gmail, so I would say I'm using Gmail; although, I use the HTC "Mail" widget to access my mail.

Peter
[HTC Sensation] Lozone:
Do you have a Mail.apk in system/app?
[HTC Sensation] PeterGuru:
Yes, I do ...

For reasons I simply cannot explain, when I first looked at the contents of the ROM, I could not find the mail.apk, but after looking a second time, it's there.

Furthermore, I finally found the icons, modified them, and now everything is as I want it. :)

Thanks for your help.
