When you hard reboot it actually factory resets the data the reason its lagging cause its reinstalling all the Bloatware Tmobile put on it. So you need at least 5-7 minutes.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Jjday7:
Ive already done a hard reset on my phone after receiving it and the reason was i had a issue with music on my sd card. I dont see the lag you speak of. If its persistent then get it replaced. I have no issues as of yet with the phone and its running great. My only slight issue is battery but that is most likely due to bloat.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ronin4740:
Have done plenty of normal reboots via the power button (power off then power on) and pulling the battery. Mine is still quite a bit more snappy than the Vibrant it replaced.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] The_Biz:
Can somebody smash their phone for me and let me know if its damaged after? It seems all phones are damaged after they're smashed.

Seriously op, if you know it messes up the phone, why ask others to do it? Why would anybody do that anyways? Seems pointless.

Wow I can't believe what a difference that made, I don't have anything frozen.

I turned off GPS and logged out of facebook app and my phone went nearly 6 days and 18hours.

with EH17 modem I was getting worse battery using WiFi (go figure) on all the time, so I just turned it on when I wanted to download something.

I have an extended battery I bought from Gorilla back in March

You still on EH17 modem?

That's crazy! I need a good battery...all of mine are wack.
[Epic 4G General] Fire n mage:

[Epic 4G General] DroidApprentice:
Can't the same thing be achieved by just selecting "never" in the fb settings for refresh interval? Yet somehow if I leave notifications checked I still get notifiers for messages, invites, etc.
[Epic 4G General] digiblur:
I don't even have Facebook setup, I think I even have it frozen in Titanium since I don't use it. I don't get crazy battery life like that though.
[Epic 4G General] ac16313:
I have facebook and twitter syncing constantly ever 4 hours maybe ill try this out.
[Epic 4G General] socos25:
That is why screen on time in a situation like this is important. I could probably get four days from my 1500mah battery if I never used it.

Not saying he didn't get 6d with good use, but I doubt it.
[Epic 4G General] Fatonuseni:
Facebook is why we have our phones! So less checking of Facebook then less use of your phone. Hence better battery.
[Epic 4G General] AproSamurai:
More avoiding Creepy girls I know, more battery life???? :O F*ck Yes!!!!! WOooooooo!!!!!! ~runs around~ lol.

Seriously I bet it'd help though, I watch the running processes and facebook will pop up after being ended numerous times.
[Epic 4G General] jdelano:
Yes, I have the best reception with the EH17 modem. I am able to connect to 4G in my house. I could not do that with the EC05 modem or any other leaked modem for that matter.

I get 8 to 10 satellites with 100% lock with it too
[Epic 4G General] jdelano:
not very much, I am a lite user because I work from home. I text a decent amount, because of that only a few phone calls (I can get the exact number of each if you'd like) and update my apps.

I'll check the screen time when I get ready to plug it up again next week. :)
[Epic 4G General] jdelano:
i had mine set to update every 4 hours; but I was only getting like 2 days ish with my extended battery. I logged out and boom.

Same thing on my wife's epic (running midNight 5.3 as well). I logged her FB off and her stock battery (didn't want the extended battery because of the bump) is lasting like 2 days, and she uses pandora and the rest of her phone a lot more than me.
[Epic 4G General] jdelano:
I LOL'd !!!!!!

yeah I noticed that even though I asked it to sync every 4hrs it was always listed in the running services. I think this came about with one of their recent updates that has location data and what not.

If you need to check FB you can always login, check and then logout. not like FB needs to be uninstalled
[Epic 4G General] rando991:
NO you MUST log or sign out to stop it from keeping the phone awake. Same thing for Lattitude and Amazon MP3 if you log into those.

---------- Post added at 08:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:16 AM ----------

Correct. If logged/signed out, the FB upload service will always run but it does not need to be stopped.
[Epic 4G General] lazydazed:
Nice find! I just got this same battery last week, and was about to return it. Only getting about 9 hours of heavy usage... Giving this a go starting tonight... anyway my thought is we all have a web browser right? Works better on that anyway IMO
[Epic 4G General] jdelano:
You have to give the battery some time; like when you first got your phone the battery life was really bad but then steadily improved.

Also, I recalibrated my phone with the new battery

I used this thread's powered off method

Calibrate Battery thread - This is how you do it!

[Epic 4G General] jemajun000:
FB constantly syncs over and over.. & GPS keeps locating you, so it's best to only turn it on when you need it. You could have left facebook on, turned off automatic syncing, and manually press sync every week or so.
[Epic 4G General] rando991:
Yes and Dolphin Mini Works way better (less of a hog than the stock)!
[Epic 4G General] jdelano:
I actually went ahead and uninstalled FB, even though I logged out. I kept finding it in my list of running tasks, I can't understand why. FB has become too invasive for my liking. just say'n
[Epic 4G General] DroidApprentice:
Trying this for a few days, it seems to be making a marginal improvement at best for my battery (nothing amazing, but it does drain a bit slower). It doesn't hurt functionality much, since the mobile fb site is much improved now that I logged out and back in to see what it looks like. And email notifications take care of the rest.
[Epic 4G General] lazydazed:
For sure.. been running D since moment days... I don't like the fact that you can't 'Exit' the stock browser..
[Epic 4G General] lazydazed:
Ya I did that when I got the battery... can't hurt to do it again
[Epic 4G General] rando991:
I don't think GPS will try to do anything assuming you sign out of Lattitude. I've started leaving GPS engaged and still have good battery and phone sleep, but ensuring I'm logged or signed out of those previously mentioned apps. Before I was freezing everything with Titanium Pro...btw, as long as you are not signed into Facebook, the FB service can run in the background services and not hurt anything significantly.

[HTC Inspire 4G] sunshine1982:
Anyone have any idea why my inspire would be using massive amounts of data on its own? Its completely stock on 2.3.3, nothing is set to sync or update on its own. Would rooting it and putting a new rom on it possibly fix things?

Sent from my CM7 Beta Atrix
[HTC Inspire 4G] Agoattamer:
All ROMs will do the same. Sense ROMs will have the most by default running in the background. If you want to see what is using data on your phone then install an app from the market called "My Data Manager". There is a free version. It will tell you what is using the internet and how much each service or app is using. You can set it up with your billing period so you will know how much you used and have left on your plan each month.
[HTC Inspire 4G] sunshine1982:
something has caused it to use 400mb's in 6 days while on wifi about 85-90% of that time
[Focus General] N!njaDuck:
I have terrible 3G signal at home and my office. Since updating to the official ATT release of Mango (From the RTM release), I noticed that the phone will not use the WIFI at times until I turn off the data.

Anyone else notice this?
[Focus General] adiliyo:
mine always uses wifi unless it's not connected to a wifi network.

wp7 does seem to shut off the wifi connection when its asleep though and then reconnects when you turn on the screen....
[Focus General] pbj85:
YES...I have this very problem. At times, my Focus has trouble connecting to wifi, and at times when it is connected it actually uses 3G/3G+ and then the connection

stalls.

In my case the 3G isn't bad, and neither is the wifi...if i turn of either Cellular data or WIFI then the other will work just fine for data. It is as though the phone has trouble switching between the two.

Finally, I have talked to a couple HTC Radar owners with the same problem in another forum. Besides having Mango in common, we all think it might be related to using Internet Sharing (which I 'hacked' onto my Focus). Do you have the Internet SHaring hack on your Focus?
[Focus General] prubin:
With my Focus (with Mango update) did not have problem.

With Focus S, experiencing disconnects on WiFi.
[Focus General] tennyleaz:
My Focus prefers wifi over 3G.
[Focus General] N!njaDuck:
More clarity on my experience:

It does not favor 3G over WIFI. It does check the 3G signal before WIFI and when in a bad coverage area that has "some" connectivity it seems to time-out prior to using the WIFI.

Any advice would be welcome.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dersh:
I can't seem to find certain fields in my "People" app. Specifically, if I add a person (spouse, child, manager etc) to a contact in google contacts, that field doesn't show up on my Evo in People.

Just to clarify. If I create a contact, either on my phone, or on google, they sync fine. But, if I then add a person (relationship) field to that contact, I can't seem to find that field on my Evo. Although, it is clear that correct syncing is going on. It is just missing the person field.

Is that field not synced? Is there a way to sync it? Is that field just not displayed by "People"? If so, is there some other application that can display it?

I did try a few other contact viewers from the Market, but I still could not find that field.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] santaparanoia:
I don't think that field is synchronized.
[HTC EVO 3D] Nips916:
Just wandering gamespot.com and noticed an article referring to GTA 3 coming to iOS and certain higher end Android devices. Rockstar listed the Evo 2 as one of the devices. After Christmas search it looks like HTC is dropping sprint as their device carrier.
[HTC EVO 3D] superman_legendary:
I'm almost 100% certain they're talking about the Evo 3D. Also where did you hear this rumor of HTC dropping Sprint. That's insane they would lose so much money. HTC has been working with Sprint even before android devices probably their biggest provider in the U.S.
[HTC EVO 3D] todah09:
Probably. a typo ...think. they meant. Evo 3d.
[HTC EVO 3D] Genjinaro:
:confused: Link? Besides I seriously wouldn't count that as valid with any weight behind it.

And the EVO line is exclusive to Sprint within the U.S. & it's available internationally on other carriers.

Ex:

EVO WiMax (Japan)

EVO 4G+ (Korea),

EVO 3D GSM (Canada/Europe/Unlocked)
[HTC EVO 3D] DarkManX4lf:
Yep I saw this article too and I'm sure they meant the evo 3d.
[HTC EVO 3D] Nips916:
I think you may be right about the Evo 2/ 3vo confusion. The article I found was here although there is no link to any info on htc dropping sprint. Must be speculation.

http://news.softpedia.com/news/HTC-EVO-2-Tipped-by-Rockstar-Games-227543.shtml
[HTC EVO 3D] DarkManX4lf:
I thought the whole EVO line was named by Sprint and only for Sprint...at least in the US.

[HTC EVO 3D] deolarte:
I remember buying my HTC touch from sprint a month before the Iphone came out. A much better phone, even though it had wm. Then the HTC Pro, Pro 2, EVO,EVO 3d. If they do drop sprint which is highly unlikely, they will loose a loyal customer.

Ps. it also works for Samsung galxy tab 7 plus if interested. Side loading needed.
[HTC EVO 3D] spartan1987:
Every time someone says "Evo" HTC gets a nickel. There's no way they would drop Sprint. HTC makes as much money as they do by getting their products on as many carriers as possible. Every phone you see that they have put on Verizon, At&t, and T-Mobile were basically just rebranded Evos.

Android 2.1+, ROOT NEED

The newest version of the Android Market is here. It’s build 3.2.0 and is from the Nexus Prime – yes, that means it is also from Ice Cream Sandwich

Instructions:

1. Download the file from above (Vending.apk) to your SD card.

2. In Root Explorer, find the file you just downloaded and copy it.

3. Move into /system/app and hit the R/W button to mount – then paste the file.

4. overwrite

5. Long press on Vending.apk.

6. Afterwards, long press on it again and choose “Permissions.”

7. Change the permissions to this. Now reboot and enjoy the new market

I not tried installing this yet, but I believe if you already have v3.1x you can just upgrade.

I'll post back here tomorrow.

I just thought I would share my results, roam control works great with this photon in Chicago. I used to have an epic and roam control didn't work here in Chicago, but it does with the photon. For those of u that don't know what roam control is, its an app that lets u force your phone into roaming. For instance at work, I have 1 bar. when I use the roam control app and set my phone to roam I get full service. But be advised too Much roaming willget u kicked off your contract. Also u need to be rooted to use the app.

[Motorola Photon 4G] piaa_nissan:
I use Roam control quite a bit and was glad ti was updated to work with the Photon. When I'm roaming on Verizon the PRL determines if it will allow you to utilize 3G or 1X data. I changed mine to 1115 which is a business PRL that allows full 3G data when roaming on VZ. In fact the speeds surpass Sprints 3G in most areas.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Harry_Spade:
how do you change prl? :p nvm did a search for it, and found it
[Motorola Photon 4G] nfamisnme:
Yeah i noticed the second i roam over onto verizon, the speeds blow out sprints...Although the ability to just roam at will comes in handy when im on the phone and im entering my apartment. I have no sprint coverage, i use an air rave. So before i step inside and lose my call i roam over with roam control, and bam my call doesn't drop! Definitely a rooted phones best friend!!!
[Motorola Photon 4G] nfamisnme:
Trust me its definitely worth the purchase. Also changing the prl is also very handy...just try not to roam to much, sprint can terminate your contract for roaming to much...
[Motorola Photon 4G] TheBundo:
