[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] justcalled:
I have exchanged Skyrocket for another one because of fast battery drain. Of course, all Att reps thought that excessive battery drain was perfectly normal and they were showing me all those spare batteries they carry in their pockets for their own Skyrockets. It didn't help when I said that battery on my phone drains to below 50% in 4 hours even if both WiFi and Data is disabled: they insisted that it is a "thinking" phone and it uses a lot of battery just because it processes its own mysterious "stuff" at super high speeds::rolleyes::D

But I insisted and persisted.

So now guess what: the new Skyrocket's battery is 79% full after one full day=17 hours! And today data was on and WiFi as well! Also, Android system on this one uses only 14% of battery (while on the old one it sometimes used over 30%). It has been only 1 day, I know, but it looks like I did the right thing when I decided to exchange Skyrocket for another one. Apparently no two Skyrockets are exactly the same :)

Now if only someone could tell me how to switch Skyrocket to 3G (without rooting it-).....

i had some major battery issues first couple of weeks. i turned off background syncing and i still was draining 20% or so an hour. i started taking widgets off one by one and by luck i started with the samsung weather app. after removing my battery life is great. today i did alot web browsing, email checking, news checking, texting, gtalk all over 4g and after 9 hours of being off charge i was at 70% battery. check your widgets!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jedah:
Turning WiFi on should actually save battery. At home on Wifi, my battery usually drains about 1%/hour.

Now, if you were out and about with LTE and mild usage and still got 79% after 17 hours, your battery is a freakin' champ.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] androidpixar:
Yep! I'm on wifi at home and work and only on LTE when I'm out n about. For instance took it off the charger at 5:30 am this morning and with minimal use, the battery level is at 69% and its around 10 pm right now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] justcalled:
Today I was out all day and most of the time had data turned off but checked my email about 10 times on 4G/LTE (I do not really need to have data constantly on because my emails today were not that important to get alerts each time a new one comes in). Today was my 2nd day on the same charge. Yesterday evening, after 1 day (17 hours) battery was 79% full. Today, after another day = 18 hours, my Skyrocket battery is at 69%. It went only 10% down since yesterday! So I am not charging it yet- I think we can make it through another day. That would be 3 days on one charge.

Hooray!:)

PS I removed unnecessary widgets from home screen, just keep them in apps. My data sync is always turned off as well. And- on this Skyrocket- I didn't even set up gmail account. Maybe it was google that was spying inside Android OS on something before and using up the battery?:rolleyes: I also made my wallpaper BLACK hoping black will use less battery (well, this doesn't seem to help).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] blessedswine:
for anyone having issues with battery i suggest you try using CPUSPY it will show you if your phones going into "sleep mode" or not. also show you if something is keeping phone running at full speed. from there youll have to figure out what is doing it. my Inspire 4g use to do this where the wifi would keep the phone from, for a lack of a better word, sleeping.

My buddy has a skyrocket. First time Android user. He complained non-stop. I showed him how to stop all the data/battery sucking apps and he never has a problem. I dont have the phone in front of me so I dont have a list of what I did. But itrs usually a user error. People are too quick to jump on the idea that the phone they got sucks.

will we be able to expand the memory of the titan by our own means? or does it have nand memory ( if i'm saying that right) like the focus s?
[HTC Titan] rtydevine:
Nand memory
[HTC Titan] noelito:
Noooooooo lol
[HTC Titan] noelito:
nand memory

is nand memory unexpandable?
[HTC Titan] Strike_Eagle:
no.

and it also make installing the Original ROM for other version of Titan impossible. i mean you don't have anything like gold card to install the US version on your UK phone like we can do on HD2 with goldcard.

I would pay someone to sodder 32gb of storage to put on my phone
[HTC Titan] gjlamb:
Frankly this is a killer for me. Love the device, but 16GB(12GB) is just not doable. In these days of expandable memory built in 64GB in mobile devices it's just a silly move. Especially considering the retail cost of 32GB is so low (cost to an OEM would be peanuts), why on earth would a manufacturer put anything less than that in a device like this!!!
[HTC Titan] Tempest790:
I agree. At the very least they could have offered both 16GB and 32GB versions simultaneously. My Focus was expanded to 24GB, and I used about 12GB of it. My Titan will be pretty much full when I get it. However, I'll probably keep the Titan as a stop gap until Nokia 900 or an LTE WP7 phone with 32GB shows up. That will be the ultimate phone.
[HTC Titan] gjlamb:
Yup. The Nokia 900 or whatever it will be called will be my next phone. I replaced the 8gb in my Mozart with a 32gb but the battery life is an issue with it to use as my daily phone. That, factored with no flashlight function ( a good one) and HTC insist on putting tiny little speakers on the back of their phones!!!

HTC should get some real world input into specing their hardware for users.

[General Questions and Answers] tristran:
I have readed so many post, but haven´t found any help. So I dare to ask you some help.

I have S-OFF and rooted my HTC-Desire several days ago using Revolutionary. Everything went well and phone worked fine. Phone is 1 year old.

Then I did tried to install new ROM- leedroid, and it did started nicely, but after restarted few times, It didn´t start at all. Only showing that starting screen over and over again. And now it won´t do even that. I can´t flash new rom cos ClockworkMod recovery says can´t mount SDcard. SDs are working fine another phones, and I have formated them several times. I have all stuffs from that SD that was in phone, backups etc. Can´t do anything which uses sdcard. And otherwise it acts like there´s no ROM at all. When started it only flashes android text on blackscreen.

Error mounting /sdcard, E:Can´t mount /sdcard/ etc.

I also tried to connect it with computer, but it won´t connect properly. I thought that mayby that way using adb.. but not now how to and how to make connection right. It says E:Unable to write lunfile (No such file or directory) if you try to mount USB storage.

Is there anything else to do than go to do some phone shopping?

Please, if you have any ideas...

And I wish answers to be simple enough english to understand.. I´m not native english speaker.

[General Questions and Answers] Rulfy:
I know this thread is old, but I got exactly the same problem now ... and nobody did answer here yet.

A friend gave me his htc ace and I tried to repair it, since it's not booting anymore.

The bootloader is unlocked and I tried several recovery systems: CWM, modded CWM and TWRP.

The problem: I can't mount/format the storage/sdcard or /sdcard.

In CWM it says "Unable to write lunfile. Can't mount /sdcard",

In TWRP it shows 0 MB for the total/free size of the sdcard partition.

In modded CWM it says something like: Can't format/access non fvn(?)-format sdcard.

I can't access the phone via adb, since I just get "error: closed" (twice)

fastboot is working (so I could (re-)unlock the bootloader and flash custom recoveries) and so seems adb-sideload (it sends the new rom but doesn't do anything with it -> probably because it can't write to the sdcard).

Anyone might got an idea how to fix it? Maybe reformat the whole internal sdcard somehow?
[General Questions and Answers] Rulfy:
I already tried a full wipe, but every access to the sdcard just errors.

Even usb mount doesn't work, so I really couldn't find any way to access/format it yet :(

Can anyone recommend a good lockscreen that will display upcoming calendar events? It also needs to have good battery life and preferably have a launcher to launch sms when you have one like the stock lockscreen.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gr8hairy1:
AGILE LOCK! Mimics to an extent the htc sense lockscreen.

I'm a huge fan of it. While it doesn't 'hide' the text message option, and 'show' it with new text. It does allow for fast access to 4 apps of your choice, and it enables accessing the pull down status drawer (open new text messages) with the lock screen still active.

And for calender it allows you to use any widget of your choice. Here's mine:

Side load a different launcher, go launcher or what have you.

Then when you first turn on the NOOK when you do the unlock, you can default the unlock to bring up your other launcher.

many are selling their Galaxy Nexus saying waiting for lock code to unlock etc.. and others are saying its sim-free and unlocked

so who to believe? is it locked for those to took it on contract (o2 , orange , others) or its unlocked just tied up with the contract and can sell it easily to make quick cash?

thanks

Well Im in the UK and got the phone from Phones4u - tied to an Orange tarriff..... but I now have my T-Mobile SIM in it as ive got 6 weeks left before I can actually move my number to Orange.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Spinstorm:
Some are locked. Some aren't.

It seems all O2 phones are locked. Some Three phones but not all of them and that the new contract phones4u are unlocked.

Either way I unlocked my O2 phone for £7 using eBay and it only took a few hours to get the code so it isn't tricky to unlock which is great for those in the US wanting to buy a phone as it would surely be cheaper to buy a locked phone and pay $15 on eBay for an unlock code.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bashar .:
So if have some friends in the UK who can get it for free due an upgrade or using the plan for their own i can make them happy paying them £400 cash per device and they use the service anyway and benefit some cash? :D

wow no one? hehe i thought i'll be getting tons of PMs regarding the topic

seems i have no option but getting it over ebay overpriced :/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blunden:
Probably because they wouldn't profit from it at all. If they buy them on contract they still end up paying at least the full price of the phone but as part of an increased monthly cost. When you then offer them £400 they probably end up about £100 out of pocket. Hardly a great deal for them. ;)

Do you need a completely stock ROM or a completely stock rooted ROM?

Here is the stock RUU. Place it in the root of your SD card, rename to PG86IMG.zip. Then turn off your phone and boot into bootloader by pressing power+volume down. (or do "adb reboot bootloader" if you have adb). The bootloader will scan for the ROM and install it. Then you will have the stock ROM.
