[Continuum Android Development] Weudel:
So, basically, stop using it for what it was intended?... I'll deal with short battery life rather than do that... I auto-download podcasts, keep up with the socials, and make the occasional phone call... Sure my battery life is horrible, but I'm getting the most out of my device.

And 20 hours is excellent for a smart phone... Just recharge every night.
[Continuum Android Development] pattielipp:
If you get 20+ hours with all of you say you do, then you are doing something right. If i am on myphone, messing with stuff, changing things, playing, texting, emails, etc my phone is lucky to last half a day, but it is expected as a phone such as ours will use a lot of power by the screen, processer, etc.

I don't quite understand what you are trying to do? get even better battery life, or simply remove the icons from the ticker?

I suppose removing the icons, which i am sure trailblazer can do, as he said, will help save power in the sense of the pixels not illuminating. Our amoled screens use very little power when displaying a black screen by basically turning off each individual pixel, but like he said, the application will still be running in the background, so it is a little pointless. And, lastly, in order to completly remove the ticker we would need to build a rom from source to not include the ticker.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DoctorQMM:
Hi. Given the hardware similarities between GS2 T989 and the AT&T GS2 I727-Skyrocket, hoping someone on the T989 Forum can help me out. I have a GS2-I777 and a GS2 I727-Skyrocket phone (both AT&T). Both phones are rooted and are using stock kernels. Using a USB connector (link below), I can quickly plug in the adapter to the GS2-I777 and it recognizes my Sandisk flash drive... and can easily transfer files using Root Explorer. However, on the GS2-I727-Skyrocket, it cannot read the flash drive. Hoping someone here can advise if their T989 can read a USB flash drive? I'm perplexed as to why the GS2-I777 can read it fine...(so it's not a cable issue), but the GS2-I727 cannot.

More Info: I have 2 of those cables.. both work fine with the I777-GS2 (once connected, the "USB Device Connected" icon in pull-down appears and stays so you can disconnect later). However, on the GS2-I727-SR, when I connect the Sandisk flash drive (8Gb), it says "USB Device Connected"... "Media Scanning Completed", but the USB icon does not appear in pull down. When I open files with Root Explorer, I can see /sdcard/usbstorage/SDA folder, but no files in the folder. On the flash drive I have 162mb used and 7.31 GB free; but when in the SR /sdcard/usbstorage/SDA folder it reads "0k used, 392.22mb Free". Can it be a hardware on the SR or something inherently different in the SR kernel? Can a T989 recognize/read a USB flash drive? Thanks!

I use to have a transparent version of samsung's digital clock widget but after today's update to honeycomb 3.2 the clock became untransparent again. So, I moved my transparent version to system/apps and rebooted. Now it tels me that there is problem with loading widget and I didn't backup the original digital clock (yes, that was silly) so I don't have any digital clocks anymore. Could somebody give me either original version of digital clock or transparent one for honeycomb 3.2? Thank a lot.

Hi All,

What exactly does Davlik cache do and is there a correct order to wipe the caches?
[General Questions and Answers] carsalbuja:
those 2 are to to wipe the phone previus a theme install. it will NOT erase your apps DATA wipe or Factory reset will erase everything including apps.

i wipped those 2 always before installing a new theme or a rom based on my same android version (2.3.5) and my apps and google accounts are always there in my new room like they were before :)
[General Questions and Answers] sushiguy732:
is there a correct order in which to wipe wipe first?
[General Questions and Answers] Dark3n:
The app cache will be rebuild when the apps start the next time.

The dalvik-cache will be rebuild on reboot.

You might get some FCs until you rebooted, after you wiped the dalvik-cache.

tl:dr there is no correct order.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sahil04:
I'm more of an android guy but my dad uses a hd7 that he also will use to tether. The current way he is doing it is that he is on NoDo (pre-mango) and the dial up hack (his HD7 is chevron unlocked). I was interested in flashing a Mango rom that has wifi internet sharing so I searched and think I have the method down for the most part but just want to make sure.

1. Charge battery up to 50%+

2. Hold power down while rebooting and go into OSPL mode

3. Flash RSPL (the temporary one) (basically follow directions in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1195647)

This is where I'm not quite sure if the steps are correct

4. Download the rom file and launch the .exe file (the phone is a TMO HD7)

Am I missing anything? I'm sorry if there is a how-to flash a rom but I didn't find a how-to that had a step by step.

Also, is there a major difference between the roms in the development section?

Thanks a lot!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
You've got the basic idea, yes. I think for a full ROM you *might* need to use HSPL instead of just RSPL, but I'm not sure (and if you can do RSPL you can do HSPL too, easily). Custom ROMs typically come pre-packaged in a "RUU" program - that's ROM Update Utility. If you want one that's just available as a binary image, you can download the RUU separately.

The major differences between the ROMs will be things like:

What devices are supported (HD7 = Schubert).

What features are supported (not all Mango ROMs will have Internet Sharing via WiFi, for example).

What tweaks are included (most should come pre-unlocked, at least).

Anything that *doesn't* work (watch ut for this list).

What update mechanisms the ROM supports (custom CABs are common, for example).

Generally speaking, the DFT ROMs are pretty good, though many people use their ROMs as a base to build in additional capabilities.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sahil04:
Thanks for the reply, it really helps knowing you have a understanding of something before you actually attempt to do it lol.

I figured out the Schubert information just reading about it and the rest I figured out while browsing over the roms. I think I'm going to go with this one for my first flash.

Thanks again for the help and hopefully all goes well.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
DeepShining is popular as a high-capability ROM (lots of features), but be sure you read the Known Issues list. Things like possible problems with Connection Setup may be a problem if you use it for its legit purpose (fixing connection settings) very often, and the inability to use the CAB sender means future updates will probably have to be full ROM re-flashing.

If your dad has any app data on the phone that he'd like to preserve, such as game progress or things like that, let me know before you flash his phone. I've got an HTC data backup app that I'm ready to start a limited alpha test of. It's actually ahrd to find people who can test it on Mango though, due to the low number of people with interop-unlocked HTC phones, so a custom ROM that supports TouchXplorer (same DLL needed for my backup app) might make a good test. The app isn't even beta quality yet - I'm still adding things to it, and the codebase is a bit of a mess - but it works for the features it does have, most of the time.
[HTC EVO 3D] spalding1028:
So I saw over on bgr today that htc's gonna have a quad core tablet coming out in february. I'm already very enthused about the transformer prime from asus coming out next month, and wanted a few opinions. I'm debating on whether or not I'll enjoy scribe or the dock more (the promise of 18 hours of battery life is very tempting). Could I get a few transformer and flyer/evo view owners to chime in on how happy they've been with their tablets?
[HTC EVO 3D] aznmode:
Do you have specs of the new HTC tablet?

I myself am probably gonna go with the Prime because of the extended battery and better IPS screen. HTC is probably going to be just Super LCD.
[HTC EVO 3D] spalding1028:
I wish they had specs out. all they know is that it's gonna have the tegra 3 in it. I'm kinda leaning towards the transformer... the ips display is one thing, and I really do like the form factor of it.
[HTC EVO 3D] sprintuser1977:
They said what prime will cost?
[HTC EVO 3D] spalding1028:
$499 for the 32 gig model, $599 for the 64 gig model
[HTC EVO 3D] Genjinaro:
$499 For the T.Prime

$99 for the Keyboard Dock

$600 total.

IMHO, I'm going for the prime. I'm not sure HTC will have a good price for their upcoming tablet given the Jetstream is a hefty $700.

The Keyboard dock adds the ports & the massive boost in battery. I'm a road warrior so I'll appreciate the T.Prime more.

edit: or 256 if you use a 64 gig microsd and a 128 gig sd

[HTC EVO 3D] Drewmungus:
The prime looks really sweet! I'm going to put some blind faith in HTC though. I've allows loved how HTC's products feel, they allows feel like a really high end device. I really liked how the flyer felt in my hands when I was checking it out at best buy. I have a horrible feeling the new one is going to be super expensive though.

Al that being said I think I'm going to pick up one of the new Nook tablets because of the price and I read today that barnes and noble basicially told Micro$oft where to shove there patent licensing fees.
[HTC EVO 3D] dkdude36:
i'm stuck between wanting the tprime or the lenovo tablet. i mean, 2 gigs sounds sweet, but asus likes updates, and using as a laptop was really the reason i got an ipad in the first place. the only problem is the ipad can't do much. let's see if i can save up enough before release to even have a choice...

what does everyone else think?
[HTC EVO 3D] blkhwkz:
The BGR article said the HTC tablet will be shown in February but "will launch some time before the end of the third quarter." There will be quite a few Tegra3 tablets to choose from by that time unless they release it much quicker. Hopefully they learned from that overpriced Jetstream and try to actually price competitively this time. I will be interested in hearing more on the Lenovo, but right now it looks like I am getting the Prime.

Selling my iPad 2 to get a T-Prime; this **** looks legit.

HTC Tablets have all disappointed me thus far and I'm sure the Lenovo tablet will be thick and plastic just like the last one. They have great specs but their design department sucks balls. :3 (I own a ThinkPad).
[HTC EVO 3D] rykatemom:
I'm a TF101 user, and love it. If it wasn't still meeting all my needs so damned well, I'd sell if for a Prime. As it stands, while the Prime specs are sweet, as fast as Asus is putting these out, by next year when my Microcenter insurance on my TF101 is almost out, Asus will have the third gen Transformer out, and I will be able to decide then whether to go with the Prime or the 3rd Gen TF. The TF101 has not failed to disappoint me, and is my primary device right now. I still have my regular Win7 laptop, but barring a few very minor shortcomings, the Transformer meets all my needs with superior battery life and a size I rather like, and I'm a university student, working on my research disertation, so my TF sees some REALLY heavy usage and document processing.

HTC makes good phones, I have the 3VO, but I don't think that I'd want the heavy UI overlays that HTC tends to put on their products, nor the price tags that tend to go with them. One of my favourite things about my TF is that it's not heavily skinned by Asus, and the UI they do have is very pleasing to the eye, without killing battery life. I'm only just now toying with the idea of rooting, but I haven't (and still don't) feel the need to root this tablet. It's so very usable thus far, and I don't have any problems with battery life or anything else. My 3VO, for the record, was promptly rooted the day I got it. Sense is pretty for a while, but just horrid on the battery, and I really prefer the vanilla Android experience.

YMMV, just my .02 on this topic. FWIW, I think any tech user should look at what they need and want from any given device, and find the one that best matches what those ideals are, regardless of brand. HTH.

Haha yeah few things iffy there to me. One using NVIDIA as they have used Qualcomm for most their top stuff for awhile and they have giant chips due out soon next yr. Also the fact the camera MP are so low is very odd, and the RAM being 1gb seems lil low for top end. Would expect 2gb ram when we get to these quadcore devices...
[HTC EVO 3D] spalding1028:
transformer prime will only have 1 gig of ram. I'm afraid to see what the price on htc's quad core tablet will be... especially after seeing the price tag on the jetstream
[HTC EVO 3D] cobraboy85:
quad core in tablets now... this seems like it will be in phones by the end of next year.

i don't see what you would do with that type of processing power in a simple tablet, however. seems ridiculous unless it can support full keyboard and mouse. otherwise, it will never do what a fast laptop can do.

the htc bajillion core tablet better have something inventive and new other than sense 3.5.1.2.3 if i am going to be spending my money on it.

I want something that can integrate full Photoshop cs5, media editing software that is studio quality, manage my work computer and integrate full Microsoft office applications and have a built in projector for PowerPoint presentations and hd movie display... Then we can get rid of these cumbersome home PC's and laptaps... And also the cumbersome companies behind them

I have the TF 101 and love it. It does everything I expected and more. Asus has been fantastic with updates and it appears they will continue to support it as it will be getting ics very soon. Stock is VERY good. I did root mine for fun and OC purposes. As for the keyboard, it's not just a keyboard. It extends battery life to over 16 hrs from 8.

I will definitely be getting the Prime when I feel the need. Dev support on TF has been very good also, I hope that continues.
[HTC EVO 3D] ausch30:
Read this and got a bit of a laugh, combine that with it's Kal-El processor and you have a nerds wet dream.

No one really knows until all the specs are finalized but in my opinion there isn't even a choice, Prime wins. Straight ICS, no Sense over it, most likely a much lower price, keyboard dock, aluminum case, IPS display.

The HTC Edge, Zeta, and Ville however, I'm praying one of those come to Sprint.
[HTC EVO 3D] spalding1028:
I think I've made up my mind. After realizing the headache htc's 1.5 hboot has caused (see here) I'm highly doubtful if I'll buy one of their tablets. I have an asus laptop and the build quality is fantastic. Now to anxiously wait the next few weeks for it to release

Transformer Prime Pre Order (amazon)

Dock Pre Order (amazon)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] nextelbuddy:
I own a Transformer Wi-Fi 16GB model. I have owned this since August when i got it for my birthday. I am a Huge android fan boy, recently at work for a thank you gesture, our small dev team received 4 ipad2s as a thank you from management.

I gave the iPad to my fiancée who is pretty much all Apple, (iPhone, mac pro personal and mac pro laptop work and now ipad2)

Last night i just charged both devices to 100%.

On Transformer (no dock) I turned unit off and turned back on and started NO applications.

on ipad2 i did nothing, just charged and removed it from charger first.

Removed Transformer from charger afterwards.

Went to bed at midnight.

woke up at 8am

IPad2 was still at 100%

Transformer - 95%

iPad2 is on latest iOS 5.01

Transformer - is on latest 8.6.5.19 and CPUSpy showed 8 hours of Deep Sleep

So the Transformer is performing as it should battery wise it just pales in comparison to the ipad2 and the battery management shows.

I can use the iPad2 very moderately throughout the week and never have to charge it.

the Transformer i have to charge every few days with the same moderate usage.

just such a bummer, everyone around me is jumping ship to Apple iPhones and iPads

here i am loyal to Android since the G1 when it launched, Mytouch, and my now Samsung Vibrant and Transformer Tablet.

I feel sometimes I am on the losing team. I am and WILL hold out for Ice cream sandwich but if ICS doesn’t perform like it should, I fear I may have to jump ship too.

there is only one thing i hate the most about Android.... the Lag/stutter in apps and home screen swipes.

iOS never does this at all yet every iteration of Android always has some type of frame rate/lag in the system.

yes i know people say Root and get on another rom but why should I have to? ios people don’t have to do that, their OS just works with no lag so why cant Android get rid of their stutter?

ok rant over. :D

You said you opened it and started no apps. But most apps auto start up on boot. Are you using a task killer?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Rumbleweed:
Not sure a difference of 5% qualifies as "pales" Also Transformer is running multiple apps in background from last use. ipad most likely not running any if not started during this session.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] stumpyz9:
And what is the size of each battery? Did you take that into account?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] nextelbuddy:
no i dont use a task killer, i used to on gingerbread andd froyo roms on my phone but after hearing everyone come down with the fire from hell like rain if they found out you were using a task killer on Honeycomb (because honeycomb is supposed to be great at App Management) i dont use a task killer.

the only apps i have on my transformer are the default apps and words with Friends.

also verified while charger was still plugged in and after tf101 was rebooted, that the recent apps or current runnin apps icon showed no apps running (im sure there were some other core android apps running in memory on boot up)

Also iPad2 was rebooted as well. i work in QA at my software company so i pay attention to detail and steps and made sure that both devices were as close to a specific state as possible for this test. in a nice world i would have taken an average with different app scenarios but i didnt feel like it for this personal test.

i the Device is in Deep Sleep then power and app management should be superb and they are for Android but compared to iOS app and power management not so much.

i even loaded PULSE RSS feed aggregator on both devices and the experience is night and day.

nice fast and fluid on the iPad2

on the TF101 with the same feeds and pages, very slugish and laggy and takes more time to draw each individual image in the windows.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] nextelbuddy:
Pales when combined with my ipad2 usage over a week compared to my Transformer usage over a week.

i can go over a week with no charge with an iPad2

i cant go more than 2-3 days with out a charge with a TF101

so deep sleep drain with nothing running on a freshly charged device showign 5% drain over night is a positive indicator of where your battery usage is headed with this device.

Im sure this would make a difference throughout a week period (which might be why i need a charge quicker over a week period vs. the ipad)

however i would expect if a device is in deep sleep, that its power/app and battery management would be a little better on par thats all.

i am in no way trying to start a war which i can feel is about to come, not looking for people to come down on me.

I am a true Android devoted user, i just can see the differences between the OS's with small things.

overall the Android experience satisfied so much more than the ipad does which is why i did not keep it and let the fiancee have it but there are some things to be desired from the iPad2 thats all.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Gary13579:
Are you honestly *****ing about losing 5% battery over 8 hours? Really? Not to mention you were apparently running CPUSpy, so obviously the tablet wasn't completely idle as you have tried telling us 5000 times.
