I don't see a mic hole on any of those pictures. And if you look at the second picture, it almost looks like a camera.

No GN I've seen so far has a mic in that location and that would be a pretty bad location for it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chirality:
Look carefully... ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AndroidZ28:
Oh, yeah, a camera, that's it... No clue what that big ole thing an inch away is, but that tiny hole that you didn't even see - yeah that's a camera...

And please do tell why that would be a horrible location for a mic?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zacisblack:
Very odd indeed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zacisblack:
I never said it was a camera. I said whatever is behind that hole in the second picture just looks like one, alright? Cool.

And if you are on speaker phone and you place your phone down the noise cancelling mic is obstructed. Not that hard to realize honestly. Also, many people put their index finger on the top right of the phone when they hold it to their ear.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AndroidZ28:
If you put the phone down in the way you describe you would also be obstructing the speaker... Most people set the phone with the speaker up for that.

I cannot fathom holding my phone in a way that obstructs that mic, however, even if i did, I would still have a regular phone call...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chirality:
What's odd about it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mskip:
If it is a noise cancellation mic then its in the perfect position so I would back that theory. Up against the ear it would pick up surrounding sounds to minimize external sounds, in speakerphone operation (screen face down) it would act the same way and as the phone is quite long very few people would put their finger over the top of the phone to obstruct it.

Mark.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] astroturf32:
I think its the speaker. :-)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mylenthes:
Trololol

Between the click of the light and the start of a dream.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] richmelchr:
Its probably the barometer. I'm surprised I am the first person to say it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chirality:
You don't need a dedicated hole for the barometer. Any whole anywhere would do.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
The barometer doesn't need a hole. It can just be inside the phone. It doesn't need a specific port to measure pressure. The pressure in the phone is the same as outside the phone, and there are plenty of ports on the phone already (the inside obviously isn't air tight).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] voxigenboy:
mystery solved:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
LOL. That would be awesome, but the hole is way too small for the lanyard though :P
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fdm1:
and it would need 2 holes for that
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mskip:
And its at the wrong end of the phone lol.

Mark.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AllGamer:
just for reference, on the SGS2

the mic is at the bottom, and the noise cancellation mic is at the top, pretty close to where the opening of the GN case is showing

so i wouldn't be surprised if there's really a NC Mic in that location

after all it's just a pin hole, i don't think those pics are high quality enough to show it

I could've sworn I could post video from the official Twitter app. Using InsertCoin 3.4.1 and when I choose a video and go to share Twitter is not an option. Anyone else confirm? Did I miss when they removed it?
[HTC Sensation] bord1er:
I think i bricked my sensation cus i turned it off and it dont turn back on it wasnt dead when i was flashing a rom??

It dont want to do anything not even go into recovery at all what do i do?
[HTC Sensation] rddocke:
LOL WHOA...

stop freaking out lol do your self a favor

what had you done before you turned it off? (flash a rom? flash a mod? flash anything? drop it in water lol?)

give some info lets see if we can help. you probably just need to boot into recovery and reboot
[HTC Sensation] WarlockW:
Battery Dead ? Plug It In :)

Did you Pull That Battery ? Wait A Few Minutes And Then Try to turn it on ?
[HTC Sensation] bord1er:
check it out i flashed a rom right and it didnt want to boot into recovery so i took the battery out and it never turned on again????
[HTC Sensation] rddocke:
Plug it in let it charge a bit. If the orange light blinks four times and turns off, then you need to do a battery swap.

If it charges then let it charge boot unto recovery and restore your backup. I hope you made a backup.

Which Rom were you flashing?
[HTC Sensation] bord1er:
nothing comes on
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
Mate, you're really not helping yourself here. Can you please give a step-by-step of what you were trying to do and a bit more information as to what happened when it didn't go to plan?

e.g. I was trying to flash a new ROM. The ROM update completed successfully but upon rebooting it wouldn't turn on.

The above example gives a bit more insight as to the situation
[HTC Sensation] bord1er:
this is what i happend i flash a 3.5 sense rom on my sensation it didnt get any signal so i tryed to go into recovery threw rom manager and it didnt want to so i took the battery out and put it back in and it never turned on from their nothing turns on not the charging light or anything

and no it wasnt dead when i tryed so its not the battery
[HTC Sensation] Aegishua:
Pop the battery out for about 10 minutes then put it back in and try charging the battery. Also try charging from a different power source like an AC adapter or via your computers USB port. If the battery light doesn't come on then your battery is most likely dead and you may need to find a replacement.
[HTC Sensation] gypsy214:
you said you didnt get any signal. dude you prolly didnt flashed the correct radios. some roms tells you witch radio you need before flashing the rom. not all the roms have the correct radios due of a lot of sensation worldwide. had you tried to go into fastboot at all by holding power and vol down at the same time.
[HTC Sensation] rddocke:
Yes battery swap as I mentioned.

On a side note

Can anyone tell me why that is the only solution to the problem when the phone dies down like this

Thisy wife let's her phone die alllll the time and I constantly have to swap mine and her battery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ilcontegis:
Hey guys

I waited for a long time for this phone. As I am living in Japan I am afraid that as usual the Japanese version of the Galaxy Nexus will be overlocked, with things missing, slow with updates, etc. For the Nexus one and Nexus S I always got them from abroad as in Japan they don't have any good phone (except the recent GSII). As this time finally they release the Galaxy Nexus also in Japan I am tempted to get it here, but I would like to know in what it will be different from the standard version.

Thank you for your time

Best regards.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] liquidarts:
I'm concerned about the same thing. The provider, Docomo, is notorious for being slow with updates as well as tending to keep things more locked down.

I really hope this will be a pure nexus phone, same phone as other regions.

As soon as someone knows what Japan's Galaxy Nexus is, please post!

I recently had my htc hd2 fall in water, i tried the rice tricks to dry it, though this helped a lot i am stuck with a phone with no backlight.

I can see everything if i look at the phone at an angle, everything else works, camera, flash led, charging led, calling etc.

i have no money to buy an lcd+digitizer or mainboard, so please if anyone has a bricked or dead htc hd2 that they are not using can you help me out with the parts.

[General Questions and Answers] adisonliew:
sorry to hear that mate have you try sending for repairs?
[General Questions and Answers] Blagus:
He said that he hasn't got money for repair.

Suggestion: I'd try opening LCD. Meaning, open phone, take LCD. You should be able to lift screen from the frame. Inside, there could be water, check for LEDs at one edge of the screen and see if there is some water/corrosion.

Also, you should be able to disassemble LCD, it consists of multiple layers and there could be some water. Just be careful and don't mix up layers and you should be fine.

[General Questions and Answers] mboitshepo:
hi everyone, i took apart the htc hd2 to get an idea how severe was the damage done by water, on close inspection i see that the lcd flexi that connects to the mainboard has one pin burn out, and the connector on the mainboard looks black.i washed both the flexi and the connector with acohol to get the discoloration out but the screen is still black, that is , no backlight. i don't know how bad this is, so i am hoping that someone can help me with the parts.

Mally2, i don't know if you have any info about the shipping costs from India to South Africa, please let me know, and everyone who might also have a board that i can get a connector please help me out.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MACkjam:
Now before anyone flames me, I did search first "DUH". I could not find any clear solution that doesn't involve flashing roms, rooting etc etc.

All of a sudden, when phone has been on standby overnight, the battery is draining mega fast and it shows that the culprit is this "Mediaserver". What is this and how do I kill the SOB?

Usually my phone battery goes from 100% to about 95% when I wake up in the morning, which is about right. Now for the past 2 days, it goes from 100% to around 50% overnight!!!!!!

Please help someone as I have searched everywhere and I have not found a clear answer. I have not installed anything new, I do not stream media etc.

Thanks in advance!

FYI I typed "media server android battery" in to google and this was the first link.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MACkjam:
Umm...thanks very much but that was the first thing I tried. I actually saw that thread of the link you provided but it tells me absolutely nothing. Like I said, I did search first. I am not new here :-)

I would like to know how one kills mediaserver.

I actually restarted my phone and up to now it has gone back to normal. Mediaserver appears near the bottom now with only 2% and the display is back at the top with 65% battery usage.

I must have read through about 10 different threads on the same issue with no clear resolution! Very frustrating indeed.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maatsby:
no worries, I can see you're not new here and I'm sure you've been pulling your hair out searching and reading the same thing over and over. When I read your OP it seemed like the answers in that thread covered things you might not have tried:

The answers in that thread suggest moving all of your media off your sd, nothing to do with rooting or flashing

But anyway I clearly underestimated how frustrating this problem has been for you, I don't think I could suggest anything you haven't already tried!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MACkjam:
Possibly solved mediaserver issue!

Well, I did a soft reset and everything has gone back to normal. Medaserver does not even feature now. It is only visible when I am streaming music via bluetooth stereo headset.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rellur:
Hi I am facing the same issue. would like to know what exactly you mean by soft reset? is it holding power button for about 10sec till phone switches off or do u mean a factory reset ?

Some of them said it worked when they cleaned up a corrupted file so i used a new SD card with just one song to test but everytime i play the song MediaServer wakes up and sucks out my batt. SO this method fails!

Second thing that i tried out was to disable stagefright settings in Build.prop which again has not worked! running out of ideas :(

device: Galaxy ace

ROM: Miracle V4.

Help would be much appreciated
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rellur:
I was facing similar issues.

here is what i observed

STOCK ROM: No issues.

Miracle ROM V4: Media server prob. Used a clean formatted SDcard with just one song on it and the problem still persisted

Other CM7.2 based ROMs: Media server prob. Used a clean formatted SDcard with just one song on it and the problem still persisted

Factory reset: On CM7.2 based ROMs: No use. problem no solved

Finally i used OmegaROMV4.: No media server problem here. Looks like its only for CM7.2 based ROMS.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] midnightzak:
I'm getting this on UNOFFICIAL CM9 for Evo. Started after I installed 5 different Portal Soundboards as well as a theme for CM9's Theme Chooser. Going to look into BetterBatteryStats but I'm not too confident based on other forums I've looked through. Also may consider a cache/dalvik wipe... If anyone has tracked this problem down please let me know.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rockysosua:
I'm using a Nexus 7 that I've only had for a few days, so it was fairly easy to track down the culprit responsible for MediaServer gobbling up my battery.

The Internet did not provide any real solutions, just suggestions, so what I did was disable and/or uninstall any apps that I had installed today (the problem only started today) and also disabled other apps that keep popping up in the task manager, even after killing them a minute before, all to no avail.

One of the things I had also done was copy over a folder of wallpapers that I also have on my HP Touchpad.

I reconnected the N7 to the PC, open the N7's storage, deleted the folder and INSTANTANEOUSLY, MediaServer disappeared from my battery stats. I can't say if this will happen to any folder of pix or music that I might copy over, as this just happened to me a few minutes ago.

Some have spoken about corrupt files, and there is that small chance that one of my pics is corrupt, but it's a darn good start for anyone else, at least knowing where to look first.

I may experiment with it later and if I have anything to report, I'll post it.

Edit,

After experimenting with the wallpapers folder, copying it over to the N7, then removing it, using the wallpaper, rebooting, plugging the USB cable into the PC, then the charger, and disabling and enabling "Gallery", I have found that there is a relationship between having that folder on the N7, and MediaServer coming on and using a lot of battery power. Getting the Media Server to come on, or go off, is not as instantaneous as it was the first time I did it, thus all the other actions mentioned above, until Media Server turned off. One thing for sure is that when the Wallpapers folder was on the N7, there was nothing I could do to stop the Media Server, and to get it to turn off, amongst other things, I had to remove the folder and disable "Gallery".

Once the Media Server is off, it stays off, even after enabling "Gallery", as long as the Wallpapers folder isn't present.

I hope I explained that well enough to be useful.

Bare rom with themes.

Plus more goodies.

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Henweigh:
I installed Cyanogenmod 7 a week ago, and everything was pretty much working fine.

Randomly today, all 4 of the soft buttons stopped working in the middle of me using my phone. I believe I was checking scores on an NFL app. Regardless, reapplying the CM7 zip didn't fix it. I tried factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache. Nothing.

Decided to try to reroot. Reapplied ED05, which is what I did before I installed CM7. Got back to essentially factory... soft buttons still don't work. Reinstalled CM7... took, but soft buttons won't work.

I thought I read somewhere that this is an issue with gapps, but I can't seem to find that page or people discussing it again. Installing gapps again didn't work.

I'm willing to get my phone back to it's most basic level, and even erase the SD card if I need to, but not sure how to clear my phone moreso than my reverting back to ED05.

Thanks for your input guys.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Henweigh:
Also, I had reinstalled my apps using Titanium, but not the app data. Again, everything was just fine for a week.

Also, having done a bunch of flashing and what not, I dont' know what happened, but now when I long press the power button, the menu comes up. When I try to use volume up/down to navigate to power off, all I get is volume going up and down
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robob686:
So, i know this thread is sort of dead, but this happened to my fascinate a while back with a version of CM7 mtd (55 maybe?)... I'm fairly convinced that the sensors for the buttons (and the lights for that matter) are completely shot, but I can't really test that. I have flashed back to stock, re-rooted it,and done everything I can think of to fix it.

You probably messed the phone up for good... my advice (if you haven't already done it): get a new phone.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJ5150:
I've noticed that when I revert back to stock ED05, and flash CM7 on top of that, it doesn't work right. minor to major glitches appear...

What i did was flash back to stock ED05, then ran the update to Gingerbread EH03... Then flashed CM7 with Glitch v13 kernel. seemed to fix a lot of my issues.

idk if this helps or it's just a flook, but just sayin...
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Charcaroth:
Will try this out

Thanks for the suggestions. I'm having the same issues as the OP with failing soft keys after flashing through CM7 to an android 4.1 based ROM, Paranoid Android. Is the Glitch kernel built into Cyanogenmod 7 or did you load it separately?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mezster:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1488976

If you are already on ICS just wipe cache and dalvik cache and flash. If not just flash up to ICS and flash kernel with ROM (same cwm session). You may want to do some reading in that thread first to make sure you get right version for your ROM.
