[HTC EVO 3D] stanglifemike:
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but those batteries are more like 1200-1300 mah. I have 4 that I never use an they are all pretty equal on battery life, a few hours less than stock HTC battery. Check out Anker or Chichitec for real 1900mah batteries.
[HTC EVO 3D] Impulses:
I usually get around five hours of actual use out of my Anker battery, give or take a half hour, that's five hours of display-on time tho... I could easily leave the phone idle for 15 hours and then browse the web for anther 5 and kill it, or I could pick it up from the charger and immediately spend 5 hours straight on it and end up at 10%...

My EVO 3D sleeps very well, battery graph usually only shows a handful of single pixel slivers of wake time in between segments where the display was on and I was actually using it, with the occasional small block for an alarm I let run or a certain app that took a little bit longer to sync or whatever. If you have lots of wake time during periods where the display was off you obviously have an issue.

I'm actually having one such issue on my tablet right now, but BetterBatteryStats just shows some princess called WifiState something accounting for the wake time... Gonna have to install System Panel on it later or uninstall some apps to find the culprit, that thing used to sip about 0.3-0.5% battery per hour (right now it's not even surviving the day, ugh). I don't think my phone uses more than 1% when idle, unless I'm in a low signal area.

Right now I'm at 45%, 2h & 40min screen time (accounts for 66% of battery use), and I've been off charger for 13h & 50min... At that pace I'd probably make it to 24h with over 5h of use, sounds about right... Most of that was on Wifi, if I spent more time on 3G I'd get closer to 4h than 5h (assuming areas with average coverage).
[HTC EVO 3D] Linophryne:
Not to bad for an eBay extened battery.
[HTC EVO 3D] tgruendler:
What was your screen on time?
[HTC EVO 3D] Linophryne:
Awake time is Screen on. The screen comes on every time it's awake.
[HTC EVO 3D] tgruendler:
Not quite, it is true that your phone is awake while the screen is on, but it can be awake while the screen is off also.

There is no way that you had over 8 hours of screen on time on one battery even if it was an extended battery.
[HTC EVO 3D] tgruendler:
So no screen on time?
[HTC Sensation] newr:
Would appreciate some clarification about the rooting thing. I've read and rooted my HTC sensation...S-off and clockwork. Have a few questions that I would like to clear up:

1) when a new OTA update is available for example...can I actually just install that instead of flashing a rooted ROM? I understand that I will lose root...but can't I just reflash the superuser file to obtain root again? Or must I use a rooted ROM or custom ROM.

2) right now, I am using the ROM that came with the phone and only went through the rooting process. If I want to keep this ROM as an original so I can go back to...do I have to back up this one now? I've done a Nand backup in clockwork before I rooted it as instructed...can I simply use that and then flash the SU file again if I ever want if I want to stay on this current ROM after I change it?

3) I performed backup using titanium backup including apps and system data...does that include all the contacts info?

4) finally, what exactly is Radio and Kernel? Do I need to change it...from what I read, if things are working...I don't need to change anything right?

Thx for clarifying this. I've read various threads but haven't gotten a clear answer to these questions.
[HTC Sensation] bobbymokie:
1. You could, but the ota could include some security changes or something making it hard to achieve root again. Easiest to just flash a pre rooted ROM that includes the updates

2. Yes that would work, but why not create a backup after root instead?

3. Tb can backup contacts, but the file might not be compatible with newer roms due to software changes. I just let google keep mine, that way the ROM doesn't matter

4. by radio we mean the software that is connecting your phone to the mobile network using the physical radio. Sometimes newer version can be more effective, and some are region specific. Between the radio and the ROM is the ril (radio interface layer), which helps the two interact. The kernel is the layer of software that directly controls the hardware of the phone (battery drain, cpu frequency and governor, all that stuff). rarely is changing any of that stuff necessary, but some of us just want to tweak everything we can
[HTC Sensation] newr:
Thx for the clarification.

What to you mean by pre-rooted ROM? Wouldn't I need a rooted ROM now that my phone is rooted or it'll lose root?

As for the backup...yeah.. so if I perform a NAND now..it would be a rooted version of the ROM right? And it'll have all the contacts as well?

Thx
[HTC Sensation] bobbymokie:
I meant when an update comes along, instead of all the effort of UN rooting, updating, and re rooting, just wait for a dev to post a ROM with the update cooked in. Much easier, less work = less risk of a problem.

And yes :)
[HTC EVO 3D] cajones42:
Ive noticed people awhile back posting about slow data speeds one their 3d's. I got mine in release and had a few internet bugs but since the updates my data speeds are good compared to others. Ive used the speed app almost everywhere i go to compare. My evo3d doubles my og evo everytime. My wifes nexus today was at .1 mbs a second while i was @ 1.1 mbs in the same spot. I have been to the sprint store about 5 times and tested the epic touch and photon and they are both way lower, with the photon higher than epic touch. Does anybody know about the iphones signal? What phones have yall had good experiences with? Im not talking about how fast sprint is as a network, im talking about how fast sprint is on different phones at the same time and place.
[HTC EVO 3D] 2k4mach:
The network sux around me. 3d, EVO, epic, and my view all get the same crappy 28k speeds at the house. 2 miles away they get 1.1mb
[HTC EVO 3D] efan3719:
it just depends on where you're at. where i'm at i have decent 3g coverage and poor 4g coverage. my 3g speeds are almost always faster than my 4g speeds. :/
[HTC EVO 3D] cajones42:
I wasnt talking about sprints data speed. I was comparing radios.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
On the 10th, I ran Ti Backup and then "upgraded" kernels to Dr. Honk's KD1 on the ODIN-able de-odex-ed KD1. Some time later, I tried to run another TiBackup and realized that su stopped working claiming a permission problem (though I could use psneuter to get a root shell through adb). Neither checking the files' permissions and ownership, nor reinstalling su and/or Superuser, several times, resolved the problem.

I've now tar-ed my entire system and have that available, and have re-flashed KD1 using ODIN. Superuser still works, and I was able to restore the TiBackup from the 10th. I'm close enough on apps and their data, but (as you would expect) the call logs, sms/mms, and contacts are all two-weeks stale.

I've tried the "obvious" of, as root through adb shell un-tar-ing /data/data/com.android.providers.*/ and that didn't seem to restore call logs between the 10th and today's tar. (It does look like the mms and contact changes were picked up.)

I've tried to run su from the CWM adb shell, but it segfaults.

Any suggestions on how to recover the data from the tar?

Got it -- looks like data/data/com.sec.android.provider.logsprovider/databases/logs.db holds the call information, not the telephony databases.

Also, don't forget other little things, like com.sec.android.app.memo
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] chvietnk:
anyone know if the s2 hardware is possible of audio output from the micro usb side? what i want is to be able to plug it in from the usb charge port from the phone to connect to my car aux and have it charging/playing music at the same time.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Born_Immaculate88:
Yes, The microUSB port at the bottom is used for both data connections and charging. Not only does it support USB host but it also comes with MHL enabling HDTV-out connectivity with the proper adapter.

MHL is a way of using both microUSB and HDMI through the same port. The downside is you need an adapter to use a regular HDMI cable with this one.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] chvietnk:
does it boot it as storage or will i be able to stream music off the phone? ill be connecting it to my car stereo with micro usb to aux(not usb port)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Born_Immaculate88:
I've tried it several times in my car with my radio that has a usb and aux port. It will not play without the special dock attachment in the usb port but I have no way of knowing if a usb to aux cable would work because I do not have one to try.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mrushabh:
I will be constructing and selling around 10 of these cables (Micro USB to audio out+charging). Please email me or PM me on m.rushabh@gmail.com if interested.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] LordJohnWhorfin:
I made one following the instructions on one of the threads, and although it is detected as a docking cable and the system claims to route the audio through it (the steering wheel logo appears in the status bar and I get a message "car audio dock detected"), it still plays through the internal speaker. I'm having the problem with Cyanogenmod 9 and now 10. I never tried with the stock ROM, I'm assuming it works...

Running one of the latest nightlies on cm7. Can anyone fire it up and see if it behaves as such for you? Works fine on my evo3d, but not nook :( sadness.

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] cabbieBot:
i appreciate it, i might have to drop back to get it working. i thought it may have something to do with slingmedia releasing a 'tablet' version of the app and nixing devices with high resolution but that doesn't seem to be the case
[General Questions and Answers] djinnerman:
After I've been going here and there flashing roms here and there updating my phone here and there eating my battery here and there, I had a little epiphany.

We all know how android roms have that little elastic home screen scrolling going from 1-5 (1-2, 2-3, 3-4 etcccc. 10-11 how many your heart desire) but what about have it where you can scroll from 1 to 1.2,1.3,1.4,1.5 to 2.1. No elastic stuff, just a smooth scrolling just like you see in the application vertical scrolling.

Anything like that possible?
[General Questions and Answers] Feeshie:
Most home replacement launchers in the market allow you to turn this feature on and off. I recommend LauncherPro or ADW Launcher.
[General Questions and Answers] djinnerman:
This is one thing I forgot to mention. I went back to Cyanogen 7.1 because I got tired of the other ones. since it has ADW Launcher as default, I think I should at least know most of the settings in there. As far as I know, there is no setting of what I'm looking for.

Maybe I didn't explain the scrolling part well enough?
[General Questions and Answers] Feeshie:
ADW Settings -> Screen Preferences -> Desktop Overshoot(set to 0)
[General Questions and Answers] djinnerman:
Thanks, but that's didn't do it. Think of it when you open the app drawer, and when you scroll up and down, it doesn't page like it does on the home screen. I was thinking more on the lines of not paging when you scroll on the home screen and have it scroll smooth like the app drawer.
[General Questions and Answers] Feeshie:
Ooh. I see what your talking about now. I can't help you there though :/ I have not yet found a launcher which does that. Windows 7 launcher does something like that but you basically lose most of ur home screen androidness
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AtokNiiro:
I was trying to install a mod for the TripNMIUI rom I had on my X10, but I think I somehow ended up completely wiping my phone instead.

Now it wont get past the SONY ERICSSON logo screen, and I can't get into xRecovery.

I have a backup, but I have no idea how to get xRecovery on the device so that I can restore it.

So, my question is this: how do I install xRecovery on a completely wiped X10?

Please help.

EDIT:

Well, turns out I did have an idea after all. This is what I did:

1. Installed stock SE rom via SEUS by doing to 'Repair phone' thing

2. Rooted and installed xRecovery with Flashtool

3. Restored my latest backup

Forgive my noobiness. Since the thread is now pointless, how do I delete it?
[General Questions and Answers] royr719:
Hi everyone, I'm new in here. I'm about to buy a SE Xperia Mini Pro, I just love that phone and Android, of course. I've been reading a lot about rooting and ROMs, so I think I'm pretty informed. Since I saw that CyanogenMod is available for the Xperia line, I'm totally decided to get my Xperia Mini Pro and install it. I just have a question: The rooting tutorial works only for the Xperia Pro sk17i or also for the sk17a? I just want to be sure, since in my country I can only get the American version on the phone, not the European. I hope that someone can answer me. Thanks a lot.
[General Questions and Answers] droxperia:
The answer is yes. Rooting sk17a is exactly same as sk17i. Follow the instructions in here :http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16659481&postcount=33

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] valancius:
Hi there,

I just got my T-Mobile SGS2. When I look straight at the phone screen, I see whites that are yellowish, as if the color temperature is bumped up by +2000-3000K. Tilting the phone 5-10 degrees to the left or right shows proper, much colder whites, as one would expect. The same nice whites can be seen if I tilt 20-30 degrees up/down.

Perhaps I would not have noticed this problem had I not played the with international version of SGS2 - the whites on that phone are just stunning anyway you look at it. I went back to the T-Mobile store and all the SGS2 phones there the same "issue". The guy in the store thinks that is how the colors should be...

Am I going crazy here? Is it normal to see this yellow cast with a straight viewing angle? Can someone confirm that their screen shows fine whites at any viewing angle? I'm considering sending the phone back for replacement, but it'd be futile if this slight yellow cast is indeed normal...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] kabuk1:
Mine is like that too. I think its just a quality of the amoled screen, cause I've seen it on other amoled phones too. You get used to it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] quantech:
I've checked out/toyed around with close to half a dozen handsets since they came out a couple weeks back and I have yet to see one that has a yellow tint. Every one I've seen has had a blue hue/tint, some approaching a grey cast while a couple others almost like a light mint green. Unfortunately AMOLED screens have the hardest time reproducing white as there apparently is no such thing as a true white LED.

Sounds like the one you got did indeed come a lot warmer than most which tend to me on the cooler side. I wish they would have a factory setting much like most flat panel TVs have for setting/adjusting color temperature to your liking. The blue tint really bugs me but I guess over time you just get used to it. Same would go with yellow too, just have to get used to it. I suppose you could keep exchanging phones as some lucky few out there seem to have gotten handsets with a good color temperature where whites actually look white, but who knows how many times you'd have to try that. I'd bet most places wouldn't be too willing to do that for a customer though.

Clam down. Wait for the black screen. The animation may not be working well, but system is booting up (I think).

If it doesn't boot, stack your Rom on top of current one without wiping. Then it will boot up successfully.

all my Chats work fine with wifi but not on 3g! its possible that T-Mobile(my carrier) block those features since it worked nice 1 week ago!:(

have u found any solution?

thx
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noelito:
yes I have found the solution and I am talking about the integrated facebook chat with your messaging application for your phone, you have to go to windows live on your desk top and remove the facebook integration and delete facebook synched contacts off your phone, you have to reinstall both several times and it will eventually connect.

basically you are going to windowslive.com and removing facebook and then adding it back on again giving windowslive rights to access facebook for chat status updates etc.

and you will also be deleting your synched facebook contacts off your phone and reinstalling them account, in the email accounts settings of your phone.

on windowslive desktop i think when you add facebook back certain prompts like i said earlier will ask you to allow windows live to access facebook chat and other features of facebook, all of this tinkering took several hours, uninstalling and reinstalling from both phone and desktop, don't bother with the actual facebook app or FIM, if you are having problems with FIM i can't help you there, the integrated facebook chat is 10 times better than FIM which is why i was going crazy when it wasn't working

[HTC Desire S] Mattypomp72:
Hi Guys,

I literally feel sick to my stomach how dumb I've been.

I've basically fallen foul of the temptation to upgrade my HTC Desire S from the standard supplied gingerbread 2.3 to the hydrogen v1.9 saga v3 zip file (2.3.1.).

It’s crashed on me now all I have is the white HTC welcome screen.

I had installed the revolutionary.io s-off tool and rooted it. Everything seemed ok for about 3 weeks then I started to get intermittent phone call cut out and today it’s just frozen at the HTC logo on white background.

Today I have attempted to restore a backup file that I had made, to recovery it through the Revolutionary tool and it installed back to a low tech interface. I then tried to install over the hydrogen ROM again without success. Now it has 5 errors on the Rev tools’ opening page.

A mixture of;

Can’t mount/open recovery log/command/last log.

I don’t know what the hell to do any suggestions from you good altruistic folk?!!

Shall I try a factory reset?

I’d be very thankful of any suggestions. I just wished I’ waited for ICS, curiosity got the better of me

You could even just wipe data, cache and dalvik, then reboot.

Update. Not all roms can function when wiping data without re-flashing so if you run into problems its always best to wipe it all and reflash. I just suggested the other method cause it has worked for me on several occasions.
