I finally got solution.. My defy's battery performance improved a lot. I have installed wakjiui ROM and calibrated the battery and it was unbelievable. Using it since last week. Almost doubled battery performance. At night it drains by only 2%. And one more thing about wakj ROM is it is perfect combination of miui and some apps from cm7. .
[Defy General] tfernandes:
i got 48 hours.. sometimes more using MIUI .. highly recommend you to use it!
[Defy General] darshanonline:
It is based on miui.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajshaikh:
I was rather shocked to learn that my galaxy tab 10.1 tablet, running Honeycomb (3.1) does not support the ability to group home screen shortcuts into folders. Nor does it seem to provide a stock widget that could be used for organizing shortcuts.

Coming from iphone & iPad, both of which have long supported folder functionality, this is a huge surprise and my only big disappointment with Honeycomb.

I have found 3rd party apps that can help this (Folder Organizer), but this App is overly complex for the given task. If anyone can recommend an app that does nothing but simple iOS-like folder organization, that would be great. (I realize there are many alternative launcher/homescreen repplacements that support folders, but would rather not broaden the discussion that far for now).

I find it embarrassing to have to explain to iPad users that Honeycomb does not have anything like folder organization for apps built-in to the OS. Is this a design "feature" of Android? Does Google prefer another method for organizing home screen icons? Is it coming in future release?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riqjuan:
Yeah unfortunately this quite basic feature didn't make it into Honeycomb, however it is definitely present in ICS (4.0) - and the automatic grouping of icons looks awesome!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajshaikh:
Thank you riqjuan, you're right, it is quite basic feature. However, I think Ice Creem Sandwitch is realeased can we flash it to GT-P7510??
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seltaeb:
To begin with, you needn't be embarrassed -- your tablet has many features and functionality out of the box that the iPad / iPhone will NEVER have. On top of that you can add further UI functionality (like in this case folder support) even if Google left it out.

The next update to Android (ICS) does include folder support in the same manner as the iPad / iPhone, but till then "Folder Organizer" or an alternative launcher are the only way to do this. Note that both of these options are way more powerful than iPad / iPhone's folder support.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bigmille:
Well unlike IOS, you can use 3rd party folder apps. I'm currently using Folder Organizer (more functions than IOS folders), but there are lots good ones in the Maket.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajshaikh:
Thanks. I'm looking for plug in / addon / tweek to do so as easy as 123. Drag and drop! Like ios does...

Is ICS released.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gerrylum:
If you use a launcher like adw launcher, I think it adds the folder capability.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tivo7:
Yes, ADW can group apps in folders.

ICS has pretty amazing folder arrangement programming (saw it on the live stream from hong kong last night). We will probably getting ICS on our galaxy tabs (nobody knows when yet) based on the fact that the only devices with ICS right now are Samsung just like our tabs.

...Wrong section. Should be in Q&A.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RMXO:

Hi everyone

Quick question here. Is it possible to use the Desire HD's audio enhancements such as Dolby, SRS and Beats on non-Sense ROM's or is it hardcoded into the Sense framework?

Thanks

hey OT dwellers.

wouldnt it be really nice if we could impliment scren technology onto computer monitors? that way at this rate we would be getting something like 4x 720p res with only a 10 inch screen!

considering 720p on the galaxy nexus 4.65 in screen...

tl;dr

any thoughts on retinal display (or similar) for computer monitors?

just my thought.

what do you peeps think?

comments appreciated :)
[Off-topic] Dirk:
You can already get Monitor sized AMOLED displays with high pixel densities, if you're willing to pay tens, if not hundreds, of thousands of dollars for them.

The technology is barely there atm though for scaling production up to these sizes. There are limited materials, limited resources and no consumer base as nobody would be willing to pay the current asking price.

There's also little advantage in having extreme pixel densities on displays that you are 5' away from when using them. Amoled would also be terrible on large displays, especially when IPS does a much better job at reproducing colour accurately and is an existing, tried and true, technology.

I'd rather see existing tech, and the processes used to create it, improved so that a reduction in cost can be passed along to us consumers.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] planetf1:
I have an SGS2 updated with KI8 frankenstein. The phone has mostly decent battery life and appears stable. It is rooted, though the only mod is replacement of wpa_supplicant for ad-hoc networking, and use of Titanium Backup pro

I was reviewing the system logs and came across quite a number of

ActivityManager ( $pid) Scheduling restart of crashed service XXX

Initially I saw one particular app (I forget which) and just cleared out it's data, but I realise in the logs these occur for all kinds of apps - user and system, on an ongoing basis.

Am interested to know if other people see these -- are they relatively "normal" or is this an indicator of a problem with KI8? Or perhaps a required to reset. I could do that, but seems little need if everyone has them.

Example apps include

com.sec.android.widgetapp.digitalclock

com.sec.android.socialhub/.service

com.spotify.mobile.android.ui

google.android.music

sec.android.providers.drm

com.facebook.orca/.server

com.sec.android.app.controlpanel

com.sec.android.app.gsu/.service

com.noticesoftware.AndroidCentral/.AlertService

com.smlds/.smlStartService

com.wssyncmldm/.DMService

com.facebook.orca/.push.mqtt.MqttPushService

.. the list continues.

Now is this just processes starting up for a bit and then exiting as designed?

To clarify -- all the apps above I know about still work - spotify, google music, android central, facebook -- I don't notice functional issues.

Working in sw engineering I know how debug logs sometimes cause unnecessary worry as the behaviour is intentional, or sometimes demonstrate poor design ...

They could also indicate a real issue.

Thoughts?

Hey I was wonderin will there be a update for the epic to go to ics?? And does the epic run off gingerbread? ?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jase33:
Yes. Epic Touch runs Gingerbread 2.3.4. As for ICS, there is no official word and most likely will not be one very quickly. However, it is highly probable that an official version will come but if not there will certainly be one released here.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jruless316:
Ok coo I am hopin they do have on for this phone.... if not does this mean id have to root my phone to get it??
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bluefire808:
Yes it means you will have to root to get it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kingsway8605:
Don't know. Considering there are many top notch phones, including the original epic still running froyo, nothing is for certain. Buy a phone for what it has now, without any expectations for the future, or you are setting yourself up for disappointment.

Maybe we should start nagging Samsung John lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bluefire808:
It will come out for this phone. Its samsungs flag ship device.it may be mid 2012 but this phone will get a OTA and I'm sure once its released from google as vannilla for other S2's it will be ported much before the OTA. But like a guy that posted a few posts back. Are device is great and ejoy it for what amazing tech it is and when ICS is released ( which I don't even doubt it will be ) just take it as a bonus.

Ya I just hope ya know cuz im not really wanting to root my phone
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] asteetva:

Samsung's business strategy seems like new rom with new phone only so far. They have to make money for spending so much on their R&D and I think they make it this way. I will not expect it from Samsung, but yes Devs here are awesome and they will bring it.

No prices announced yet in the US that I am aware of.
[General Questions and Answers] qtwrk:
i've seen some news says that 299 USD with 2 years contract although not yet know how much need to pay every month

personal idea , retail price is usually double or triple of contract price

and pre-order price of MOBICITY is 799 USD...

let's make simple guess

i9100 dual-core 4.3" screen without contract = 549 euros in Spain

and i9250 is better (bigger screen...etc)than i9100 , i think it costs over 700 euros at least...

and new release model is always much expensive than usual ... maybe over 900 euros in the first few weeks
[General Questions and Answers] YourMainDude:
Usually when the price is as high as 800 its probably due to the LTE. But maybe a little less for the GSM version =]

[Captivate General] khabri:
Hi,

I have rooted captivate running default ATT os eclair android.

I am unable to get it to connect to wifi hotspot (adhoc, open) in my laptop. HTC G1 connects fine to it. I just do not understand why captivate cannot connect.

So to install apk I tried sdcard route but says blocked. In Application menu I do not see any option to allow unknown sources like I see in HTC G1 which is running cyanogenmod.

since wifi does not work I cannot install using market. since unknown sources is not an option available in phone menu I cannot install either.

any alternatives ?

1) should install another rom like cyanogenmod ?

Regards,

Miten.

[Captivate General] khabri:
Hi,

sideloading itself needs installing apk. I have issue in first place that of phone not letting install from sdcard due to it not being from Android Market and wifi does not connect me to my local home hotspot.

do I need to have some sim in phone to get wifi to work ? I have been trying without having sim in phone since I know my sim is not ATT and the phone is locked currently to ATT and that unlocking is what I am trying to get done.

[Xperia Arc General] Lancerfq:
Yeah i agree from a legal point of view it is very understandable, what SE could have done is taken control of the domains and the blog but kept the starter of the blog and others as moderators, that way they get their xperia name not being misused by unauthorised people but still have the blog going, plus consumers would still be happy as we would still have our beloved blog :)

[Xperia Arc General] batman_112:

[Xperia Arc General] unknown13x:
SE is always sensitive to what sites put down about their product. When you put out something that may reflect negatively, which it did against the Arc S in the camera comparison, it's not a surprised result. Since the site is also using Xperia in its name and actually damaging it's reputation (may be not alot, but it still does). Think about a scenario where I want to know more about the product. I found the site, oh hey, it has Xperia in it. Seems like a good site to find out good reviews. You step in, and you find criticism on it. Would you have a good impression on the product? I've worked on many club sites under SE, and many were closed down for the same reason.

Sites like Mobile-Review was also abandoned for the same reason, alot of premature conclusions and no filtering to what is posted. Not that I want press to censor their opinions, but some opinions/assertions were far from true.
[Xperia Arc General] batman_112:

Changing the name of the site would be easy but SE wants the domain name. Setting up another website with the same content would be time consuming and a major pain in the arse.
