bro , just wait for few weeks , and then directly update it to 4.0 ...

-------------------

download a 2.3.6 STOCK ROM , and then flash it via recovery , reboot, you are having 2.3.6 then ..

how to :

go recovery --> wipe --> first and third --> back to main menu --> install from zip --> select zip file you download (which has to be put in SDCARD) --> yes , flash it ---> reboot ---> android 2.3.6

Yea Ill just wait till 4.0 ^_^
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] mrzzheng:
Hi, since the note lacks notification LEDs, is BLN ready for it now?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Souai:
noled works.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Cetin:
I did try noled but sometimes in dark area the black around the icons seems to be not black as it is when it's in suspend mode. my conclusion is that it's consuming to much battery at that time.

power button to wake ain't working too.

what about your experiences at all using noled right now?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Unsinkable II:
Noled is working fine for me. Doesn't seem to use up too much juice. Leaving GPS and bluetooth on overnight however almost depleted the battery from full.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] cd993:
I love using NoLed, definitely my favourite application. I have it set to display my contacts picture and so whenever I have missed a call from a friend and receives a text from another, I am aware of this by a simple glance!

Battery life isn't significantly effected in my opinion (I have the icon size small/medium and brightness set low).

Hi there newbie here, are these apps? so are downloaded from android or what?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Bigmille:
My Motorola Flipout also don't have nonfiction light, but the capacitive buttons blinks when there is a miss call text/email. I wonder how difficult it is to implement it on our Note?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] maxh:
This is a great idea! I hope a capable developer reads your post and considers it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ChodTheWacko:
yes, it's an app available in the market.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] BruTaL_BeN:
Seconded, this is such a simple and great idea
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] watch_mania:
Well at least there's a sysfs to control the state. It's just a plain on and off leds though, nothing fancy like per-button lights and brightness as in Dell Streak. No big deal for some distracting blinks :rolleyes:

Light it on with

# echo "1" > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/melfas_touchkey/brightness

Light off with

# echo "2" > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/melfas_touchkey/brightness

It won't be controllable when it's sleeping though, as usual. So either wake lock (battery drain), modify keyboard driver, or a *very top secret* other method :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Settembrini:
Can't it be done like in the Dell Streak 5?

App's name is Streak LED.

Isn't it possible to write something like that? Would be ideal.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] wingod513:
surely this app not a battery hog? I already felt bad on my battery @@ but I also want a notification light.... tough choice.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] breckbit:
i would love the capacitive touch led´s light up when a message arrive. My Dell Streak has an app for it, its just great!

@watch_mania

is it a big deal to write an app for it?

thanks in advance
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] watch_mania:
There are several ways to implement the feature, each with their own weaknesses. I'll aim for the best solution, but I'll need to check on the melfas touchkey driver for it. Worse case is the wake lock with root access.

It's going to be implemented for sure, as I badly needs the feature as well. It's just a question of when..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] koniakki:
Yeah, I believe also the touch keys are the best solution for me to use them for notifications.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] theloginwithnoname:
Have been running NoLED for a couple of days (ish useful) - however, checked the battery stats and it was awake a LONG time (15% of 13hrs?) and was around 10% of battery usage.

Have turned it off for now as I sit next to my phone for most of working day and therefore hear it as much as I see it.

Will re-evaluate once I've optimised the phone setup.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Diamantes:
NOLED doesn't work for me...

Well, mates, Noled is not working for me...

Just the option to see the recharge % on the lockscreen...

It worked just once for a sms notification and after that....oblivion:(:(:(

Someone else with the same issue? I am trying to find out a new app with similar options...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] PolishDude:
try putting the widget on your homescreen, i dont know why but it tends to randomly turn off
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Diamantes:

edit: works randomly...boh, I am a noob with android, so don't know what to do... I can live without :-)
[HTC Sensation] KeeperOfThePizza:
I'm not certain but this is a great phone, Just wondering why the lack of development? All I see is small updates to Sense ROMS.. Lack of AOSP roms or even Customized AOSP roms. There's just nothing out there.. I feel like, I did however heard in Ice Cream Sandwich source code will be released on the 17th.
[HTC Sensation] rddocke:
baby steps baby steps.

where did you get this info about the 17th?
[HTC Sensation] twomix9900:
http://www.androidcentral.com/ice-cream-sandwich-source-code-coming-nov-17-says-notion-ink-ceo
[HTC Sensation] exb0:
1 : Because Sense is ready made for us

2 : Because most aosp roms are from CM7. Since CM7 isn't really stable yet ( even though I use it as my daily driver, but "stable" is subjective ) so can't develop much. Also because Kmobs aka persianown isn't releasing the source code yet.

3 : Is a rumour. Let's hope so :)
[HTC Sensation] webmaster:
I agree, I wish there were more AOSP ROMs!

---------- Post added at 06:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:57 PM ----------

I dont know, I think the OP is spot on. This phone has been out since May/June and it seems there are very few people interested in developing for it. Many of the people who bought it when it first came out are likely going to be getting a new phone in the upcoming few months, so the window is closing for devs.........
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
All it takes is for someone who knows how to compile a ROM from source to make one and then people can have a play. I'd love to learn but just don't have the time
[HTC Sensation] rddocke:
True. I must in fact agree, I can't honestly say there has been a huge improvement on the sensation . The "updates" on current roms show little to no improvement on the first one. But honestly I think it was a bad time for the sensation to come. With all the new phones coming out NOW the focus was taken away from that developement.

But I love my phone and if someone would sit down and treat the unit with the respect it deserves and I believe this flagship phone would do so Much more.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Reclaim:
I'm not extremely angry or anything, but I got throttled by AT&T today lol! I don't really use wifi much and I stream music and movies etc from my cloud via Pogo plug, and I'll be honest, I've been so excited about my speeds I've been using my unlimited data plan to it's fullest to say the least.

As you can see, my data speed has dropped drastically for the remainder off my billing cycle which is only for a few more days.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] YourMainDude:
Damn u got owned =\ ... I have att

Btw do u have a screenshot as to how much GBs uve used just before they throttled u?

Sent From In between Your Moms Boobies
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] randrewm97:
stop using so much then lol. honestly, 2gb is plenty for a monthly bases. if youre crushing the network cause youre downloading movies, music, and what not non stop, then youre hurting the network for everyone else.

the iphone is the number one web browser on mobile platforms, and att learned quick that if they didnt do this, then their networks speeds would go way down or even crash... and now that att is competing with verizon (which throttle too for the same reason) and sprint, and soon to be tmobile and maybe even local cell providers like patriot and bell, att needs to stay competitive and make sure their network isnt being hammered by a few people that abuse the network
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Tx Redneck:
2Gigs is the sweet spot for generating revenue. Fact is, they WILL NOT throttle on the tiered plans.;) Follow the money...

2Gigs in one month is squat and VERY easy to go through w/out streaming music, movies or vids. I do it regularly.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] nkd:
Let us know how much you used man, so we can watch out?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Reclaim:
I will say I was actually trying to use a lot off data. That's why I'm not mad. I don't think this would happen if I go back to normal use. My data heavily increased when I started using my cloud. I promise I'm not doing anything illegal. Even apps that recommend for you to use wifi, I was using my data. it won't show how much I've used so far, but last month I used 8.5GB of data and I had no problems. And that was before LTE. so I think misty people would be fine.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Tx Redneck:
Here's one week of usage. Mind you, this is with Wifi at home and Mom's house too.

You can always check your data usage for the billing cycle up to the day before online under my account and current usage.

Or just dial *3282# and it will send you a text with your data usage of that cycle. Its that easy lol.

---------- Post added at 08:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:13 AM ----------

Plus I advice people to stop running speed test every 5 mins, you will be surprise how much data it uses specially on an LTE connection.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] gtkansan:
Just use the method I mentioned in another thread. Change the apn to a media net one, and while you'll drop down to hspa, you'll get full speed back!

I've never gone over 2GB in my entire term, and I have everything on autoupdate, autosync, everything. I usually average around 1600 MB, and the highest I've hit is 1800MB.

I don't use Google Music, Pandora, or Youtube on mobile network; I usually make sure to be on WiFi for that sort of thing.

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] TeknoJnky:
as the number of lte users goes up, so will the amount of bandwidth used, and thus the top 5% will get higher and higher.

So, everyone use as much as you can. :)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Reclaim:
Good point. We should really make it rough for AT&T if they're going to do that to us.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jbecerril:
If you guys don't mind telling, what are the APN settings you guys used when you get throttled?.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Longcat14:
They just want everyone off the unlimited plan, when they think their better then Verizon (already 11 months behind Verizon's LTE, GG).

Also, I get how there's a certain amount of spectrum that you can really have for HSPA+, but with LTE, you can push MASSIVE amounts of data through the network with no problems.

Oh well... we'll just had to deal with it until the Government grabs the carriers by the ba- nevermind, we'll just have to deal with it.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] RoboMonkey:
So if everyone just made a point to use at least 5gb of data per month the top 5% data cap would go way up. :)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Dawakat:
I had the same thing happen to me, 5gbs used in a nightly setting and boom by midnight I got throttled.

2gb is plenty? I can't even fathom how someone can use under 2 gbs lol
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] gtkansan:
Uhm yeah..... I use 6-9 a month
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] carlosjcar:
I guess I can expect a notification soon. Last month I used 13 gb. And about 19 gb the one before. Lots of Netflix and YouTube ect. All was on 3g .
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] cropythy:
Umm seriously do you guys not own computers or something?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Reclaim:
Sure, most of us own computers. Not everyone is at home on their computer though. Hence mobile internet. Everyone has a different life and some people us their mobile phones for more things than others. Hence the term "Power User". Which is why most of us are on this site in the first place.

In other important news! I found this thread and we should join the fight! It's mostly about tethering, but it's throttling none the less and I think it all goes together.

Connect to Wi-Fi when possible. There's free Wi-Fi all around. Stop hugging the network. Imagine 100 million users attacking the newtwork the same way, our data speed would be under 100KB
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapshot30:
You guys crack me up, I'm around wifi almost 100% of the time so I'm still on the 200 mb plan. Yes, I said megabyte lol. It's amazing how I've learned to conserve. :p
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Longcat14:
You could say this on HSPA+, but this does NOT apply on LTE.

You can push so much data down the LTE spectrum, it has no problem with massive data usage.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Dawakat:
Well theres wifi when your in the city or near a starbucks, but not when your at work lol
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] carlosjcar:
I got a grand fathered 30$ Data plan I live in a small town where free wifi is scarce and not available at work and or on the road. mobile data is my best companion. I do netflix, youtube,

pandora and the like, plus I sling from my DishDVr, 2 gb just would not be enough.

I have been a heavy user for a long time since the time when edge was top. Before the Icraphonie damaged the networks. Lots of time with Palm treos and Pocket PCs.

They spend lots of money on making their networks Faster but forget to put money on making them handle the load.

I am using what I signed and pay for Unlimited means NO FREAKING LIMIT

If AT&T trottles you they are breaking the contract so you should be able to walk away without Early Termination Fees.

This is making me so mad I will call the FTC Monday and see if this is legal.

Has anyone call the FTC to see if this a fair trading policy?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Reclaim:
Again different lifestyles. Not everyone is around wifi 100% of the time. It's a very self centered way to think that what you do can work for everyone. And yes LTE is a whole new game. The point of this, is that we shouldn't get stomped on by any company because of the way we live our lives. We pay them for a service, and we shouldn't have to do the data equivalent of eating Ramen for every meal. With the way tech is progressing, we will end up using more and more data. Just an example, I'm using cloud streaming in my car to listen to music. Obviously, I don't have wifi in my car so should I be punished? No. I want to do something about this.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapshot30:
^ I do agree with you in some ways, but many people really abuse the system mindlessly. For example, using the network on your phone to play X-box Live. Netflix, Youtube, etc are fine and acceptable. It's just the way technology is evolving and being able to enjoy the internet on the go. Tethering is where most the abuse comes in. Although, they really shouldn't call it unlimited if they are going to throttle. Maybe put something in the fine print about excessive usage...?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Dawakat:
Well it's messed up is that they don't even offer an option to take off the throttle. I work 70+ hours a week (Chemical plant worker) and I'm on nights. Yeah 5 gbs is gone like that lol. But I'd pay extra just to compensate the extra data I take.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] willgill:
Past service agreements cover past level of service. I doubt you would be happy if they crippled your phone to past speeds.

I can't blame you for wanting something new for nothing. However, you just can't expect it.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Reclaim:
So I just got the throttle warning again. Only half way through my billing cycle. I was using it pretty sparingly too this time. I'm irate. Carrier IQ, raping my data, and not being able to unlock my bootloader? I'm about to lose it.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] valenumr:
Data Throttling is BS... do the math!

Here is why I find this to be complete BS:

AT&T is offering you a service advertized at bitrates around (let's say for simpliciy) 16Mbps, which is roughly 2 Megabytes per second. So by imposing an artificial 2 GByte cap, they are limiting you to using there service to 1024 seconds per month (17 minutes and 4 seconds), but you are paying to use the service for the entire month.

A 30-day month has 60*60*24*30 seconds which is 2,592,000 seconds. So you get to use 1024/2592000 ~= 0.000395 or less than 0.04% of the total bandwidth you paid for.

COMPLETE BS!

i got the warning over the weekend also.. funny thing is that im not even on LTE, it will probably be 2015 before STL gets LTE... so i logged in to check my usage and i am only at 3.8gb for the month with 1 week left in my billing cycle.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] shogunmark:
aaaaaand i just got throttled.... i only have like 2 more days in my cycle, but still...

Let me give a word of warning, im not even on LTE and i have had very light usage this month since i am not able to tether with the vivid yet. Before the vivid my usage was at least 9gb a month, most months it peaked just over 11gb.

I got the "you are approaching the 5%" message a few days ago when i was at 3.8gb, now today i got the message that i was in the 5% with 4.8gb usage and got throttled... my "4G" non-LTE speeds wont even peak over 160k...

Looks like i will be using the old APN for a few days :D
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] brucegil:
Reasons for Heavy Use and Throttling

I saw an article where AT&T said it was throttling (not their word) accounts on the "top 5%" of the heaviest users. The article said that the "average" user uses about 800-850 MB of data a month. The heavy users use about 12 times that much. That would be about 10 GB +/- a month.

Assuming my numbers are correct, my question is what in the world are you guys downloading to consume that much bandwidth? Do you not have access to WiFi? Are you streaming music or videos all the time?

I'm not being critical, just curious. What am I missing?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] shogunmark:
me personally.. my commute is about 3 hours a day, so for 3 hours a day, 5 times a week i am streaming pandora, i will also do at least 3 movies on netflix a month and occasionally will fire up Adownloader and grab some torrents.. besides that i have 2 exchange accounts (1 corporate one personal) running in pushmode. Also, since i am away from home, if i need my personal computer i will generally use logmein to hit my computer if i need something (prior to the vivid i was tethering my tablet a lot, that will more than likely resume after we get perm root).

i am rarely near a hotspot and when i am home i dont really use my phone (but i dont switch it to wifi though either).
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] dtothesquare:
I got the top 5% warning and I've only used 1.5 gb... so they are artificially creating this "top 5%" threshold and not a finite one. I'm only a week into my cycle so if I averaged 1.5 gb a week then it would be about 6-7 gb a month, which I think i way more than reasonable, but if I get throttled at 2gb, maybe even before at this rate, then I think it's absolutely absurd. I agree that there is abuse to the network at times, however, for an "unlimited plan" to get throttled around 2gb if that happen is unreasonable. I see being reasonable is that 10 gb mark you were talking about, but it doesn't appear to be so because their "top 5%" threshold is not a finite cutoff number, and if they don't let us know what that number is, then they can continue to throttle whenever they want.

Also, I feel that their approach to throttling is wrong. If anything they should have 2 tiers of throttling. The first tier say if you go over 10 gb in the cycle, they bump you down from the LTE to hspa+ and then say after a second tier threshold at say an additional 5gb they bump you to regular hspa... but straight from LTE to 100 kbps is extreme. The tier threshold numbers I use in the example are pretty reasonable. Given how the LTE network is meant for the faster speeds and more efficient on the network for the "cloud services" and "streaming services" that they advertise, then 10 gb on the LTE network is reasonable. And for the second tier on the hspa+ of around 5gb b/c back in the day they had a soft cap of 5gb on their "unlimited plan" for the 3g.

And if you're wondering about my usage, I like using netflix, pandora and google music... all streaming services. On 3g, I would average around 2.5 gb a month and have peaked around 4 from time to time... so i wouldn't consider that abusive. And if you offer LTE on your network... you should expect heavier data usage on your network.

I haven't heard Verizon throttling people on their LTE network and have friends routinely average 10 gb a month since their LTE launched.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ahenderson223:
Why not just download the music to your phone or the movies then you wont have to worry about anything cause you wont be streaming at the end of the day its a cellphone not your home computer
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slimslim:
On my old atrix on hsdpa often I passed 3 gb, after moving to lte, they sent me the sms after only 1.8 gb, kinda sucks, especially now when Verizon doubles the data for lte devices to 4 gb for about the same price - $30/ mo, no throttle.
