Hi,

Just got me the new htc explorer, having gingerbread 2.3.5 and sense 3.5 in it . But there is no solution for it to root it , searched the while google. Please any one help me out.

I'm writting in here because it is the techncl specs is same as wildfire S,and also in the explorer build.prop the product name mentioned is wildfire S .

I will be really thankful to ny1 who can help me out and also it will be my pleasure to help ny1 in nyway:D
[HTC Wildfire S] Tectas:
Sry it's to soon to give you a hint, the device is to new.

And also sry, but wrong forum and wrong section ;)

But cause the stats of your device are not that different to the wfs, you can look around a little and see how to solve the smal internal memory problem in the future ;)
[HTC Wildfire S] csoulr666:
First and foremost check if it has locked bootloader.Do this by powering down your phone,then hold the volume down button and then press the power button(KEEP HOLDING THE VOLUME DOWN BUTTON WHEN PRESSING).A whitish screen will appear.Now check the first line.If it says "s-on" in the end of the first line....then you may have a few problems rooting it..and if there is "s-off" written.....then it would be quite easy to root your phone.

Because s-off allows you to flash updates your self which would be a way for rooting(once it comes that is :D)
[HTC Wildfire S] jitin02:
Its S-on.

And what if I try wildfire s revolutionary version . As its hboot version is higher than mine htc explorer where mine is 1.0.xxxxx

?
[HTC Wildfire S] csoulr666:
First thing......s-on means you have a locked bootloader,which doesn't allow you to root.

And......there is no wildfire s version of revolutionary....and if it were there,then still you would need the revolutionary for the HTC explorer cuz the first thing it does is identify the device.
[HTC Wildfire S] jitin02:
So So So , that means i have to **** with this only.

But there is unlock-bootloader option on htcdev.com (i know wich will void my warranty) but still if i unlock it will i b able to root? still revolutionary will be req. or something like superoneclick will root

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] khaddem:
I wonder why samsung would not put it for Tmobile? this is a very valuable feature to have on a phone. This forces you to constantly turn on your phone to see if you missed or received any communication or if your battery is fully charged when plugged in the outlet. I guess sprint cares more about their customers to have asked samsung to add this feature on theirs. This is one of the reasons i am little hesitant to walk away from my blackberry simply because of this feature. Otherwise, this is a very cool phone to have. I hope the SGS3 will have it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] OverDrive33:
I knew this buying this phone ... I'm hoping for a soft-button LED mod (like this app for LG phones).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] treo...not!:
I, for one, say good riddance to those pesky leds! :) It's the same reason I hate flashing lights on bluetooth devices. First, you have to remember which lights and which sequences mean what, and then if you're in a dark theater or restaurant, it looks like you're a Christmas tree. Plus, it is very annoying and distracting to have that light blink in my peripheral vision while I'm using the phone.

To me, it's not all that hard to press power to check my notifications. But that's only my opinion.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bighulk666:
Exactly what I was thinking. The G2X has a soft mod that enabled led flashing. I was hoping there would be something like that for the SGS2.

Bounty? lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] toy4x4:
How about one that turns the flash LED on and off.... Now that would get your attention.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] a4 moda:
You guys are talking about BLN- back light notification.

I do believe that this will be forthcoming once our development section goes into full swing. Why do I say this? We already have control of our soft keys - i.e. capacitive touch buttons in the "settings" menu.

On the Vibrant, BLN was only possible if we used an international Galaxy i9000 Kernel, which caused other battery-drain issues. On the S2, i believe it is a native function of our phone.

Just hang in there. BLN will be coming. In the meantime, be patient

I'm not getting nearly the battery life that others are claiming.

I just calibrated my battery this time, so we'll see how it goes.

Please post a screen shot of your 'settings -> about phone -> battery usage' and click on display and tell us the 'time on' numbers.

I have about 2 hours of 'time on' time, and I've gone through a third of my battery. And I have very conservative screen settings. I don't see any way I could get the reported 9 hours of video time that Engadget reported.

I'm not complaining though - on my mytouch 4g, I could get probably 3-4 hours of screen time on a battery. Considering how powerful this phone is, and the size/resolution of the screen...... No real complaints.

- Frank

P.S. Can you imagine a hyperion extended battery? The stock mytouch 4g battery is 1400, and the hyperion extended is 3500. So a hyperion extended battery for the note would be ..... 6250 mah??!?!? o@ What we need is an ibm 'slice' type of battery - that wouldn't add much thickness.

I'm looking to the Note to be the first phone that can last a day, or at LEAST a day with only one recharge.

Engadget reckoned they got 9 hours of video playback on one charge. I do hope that this is indicative of the notes performance...

That's a known ROM/kernel bug in Gingerbread, with AOS taking up so much time. It will be fixed in custom ROMs - though who knows if Samsung will fix theirs ??

When judging battery life, you should take in account that if you just have bought the device, you maybe are using it more than you will in the future. (I said maybe, don't jump at me :) )

I did... And I got 12 hrs or something.... I think that I will manage a good day with it in the future.

Of course the largest consumer of juice will be the screen... So, use a low brightness whenever you can.

And, I bought Juice Defender + from the Market, this seems a good investment and works fine on the Note. (Free version does too)

I can live with a data connection that just every 15 minutes goes on to check mail etc.

Battery Monitor widget current history readings & battery percentage loss

Mine lasts 10-15 hours , loosing 1%-2% per hour on standby with everything on (but bluetooth), cpuspy shows me deep sleep states normally on screen off,But , this is really depedning on device usage.my is Device not rooted on Stock ROM , 2.3.6 , KKA .

What i really find weird is that im using battery monitor widget to monitor battery current per minute , and somehow, it shows random readings on standby , sometimes shows -2 mha for an hour or two , and the other times it shows around -20mha to -90 mha on standby , but yet , still the battery percentage loss is quite the same (1%-2% per hour on standby). :confused:

it never gave a consistent reading in standby even if the device is set to airplane mode ! and is at deep sleep state with the screen is off.

I checked in the app settings the box for ma corrections for standby monitoring , but nothing changed , tried installing current widget but it seemed incompatible as it showed me " NO DATA" , factory resetting didn't change it , cant find any rogue apps or so to consume this much.

Is it possible that our Galaxy Note doesn't allow these apps to monitor battery current normally , bcos i tried everything to work this out (factory resetting , reinstalling apps) but still getting those awkward standby mha readings.

I would appreciate it if someone shares his battery monitor widget log in standby so we can compare, or , any advice from the experts to fix this , as this is my first Samsung device (coming from HTC Desire HD, where it used to show less than 10 mha on standby).

Cheers

Like I already wrote, BMW is *estimating* the mA on the Note. The kernel is not reporting the battery drain like on some other phones.

The widget is using % and battery voltage to estimate the battery drain.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] indie:
For the first time didn't charge my phone during the night and i was happy with the results. Normally during the day the usage on standby is around 40 - 60 mah. I checked during the night and it was a low as 2 mah. I was on 36 % before bed and woke up on 32%. At least the phone properly sleeps according to picture. Btw i use green power too.

I don't use any green stuff placebo software but I turn OFF things that I don't need like GPS and bluetooth. At night I turn off everything , even radio if I don't expect a call and my phone looses roughly 1% per 3 hours of standby.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] veletron:
WiFi and Deep Sleep

Hi

I had an issue with battery life on my Note. It turned out to be the wifi network to which I was connected at work. The network prevented the phone entering 'deep sleep' mode. It sat at 200MHz instead.

On my home WiFi network all was well, while at work it would sit and guzzle through 70%+ of the battery through the working day - despite never having been actually used.

Turning off WiFi at work solved the issue. This was obviously not a reasonable solution so I connected an old ethernet wifi router I had to the work network (same issue). I then enabled NAT on the router, and the issue suddenly went away.

I believe that the work wifi network is noisy (perhaps a zombie machine/broadcast packets, I dunno!). NAT prevents these packets getting to the new wifi access point I installed.

On the Note, the WiFi chip stays alive when phone is in deep sleep. When the WiFi device receives some data, it wakes the processor such that the processor can decide whether or not it needs to do anything with this data. If this happens too often (in the case of a noisy network) then the processor will not get to sleep much.

My device went from 5% sleep to 70% sleep after I enabled NAT. Battery left is now 60% at the end of the working day instead of about 10% previously.

To see your deep sleep percentage, get 'CPU Spy'. To see which process is munching your battery, get 'BetterBatteryStats'.
