MY VERY FIRST OP

Just thought i would share this with the community. It's called high performance carbon fiber vinyl. The great thing is that it does not leave any adhesive residue. I just slowly, carefully tailored it with a razor blade on top of the original battery cover. A blow dryer made the vinyl much more "compliant" and flexible. Hope you like it. I'm trying to do it with white carbon fiber vinyl next. Please let me know what you think...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] kabuk1:
Very nice. I have a sheet of this stuff at home, I'm probably gonna do this too.

I actually still have some from when I tried this on my vibrant. Didn't work out well then based that battery door was so oddly shaped. May go either this a shot. Keep us updated on how well it lasts.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] InGeNeTiCs:
If you're using the 3m di-noc variant, it's practically bulletproof. The 3m material isn't even vinyl, it's pvc, which is why it's so damn durable. I wouldn't hesitate putting it on anything I want to keep looking nice. The look isn't for everyone though. And depending on how tight/small the corners need to be, it might not be a good fit.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] horatiob:
Because the battery cover of the t989 is textured, the vinyl does not stick very well. like I previously mentioned, I used a blow dryer to make it stick much much better. I also have it in a clear hard/soft silicone gel skin so it should last pretty much forever.

For the Vibrant i know they had a white sticker you could put on the front. Sounds cheap i know but it looked pretty slick. The only thing i noticed was a small ridge around the face of the phone however that was kinda nice also for operating the phone without looking.

Lots of places sell this precut for the T989 if you don't want to bother cutting and trimming. I get them from SKINIT but there are probably 3 or 4 others that sell it including Zagg. It's called 3M DiNoc material and is quite nice. Skinit always has coupons around if you Google. I paid under $10 for my last one. Theirs covers the sides as well as the back as do a lot of the others. Some also come in white. Has a real nice feel to it but is relatively slippery even with the texturing. It does peel of easily but with the thin plastic back of the T989 you have to be real careful.

[Sony Tablet S] surojeet.ghosh:
Greetings everyone.

I bought the sony tablet s a few days back.. to be specefic, its been 5 days.

Came out with honeycomb 3.2 out of the box,,, updated to 3.2.1.

Following are my reviews about the product :-

1) Screen : beautiful, not excess contrast or color saturation. Very very crisp. A treat to the eye.

2) Performance : upto all standards. No magic, just any other honeycomb tablet.

3) Design : best in the market, very easy to hold... unless u wish to force yourself to have the slim design of the ipad which is almost completely copied over to the samsung galaxy tab.

4) Built quality : premium. Although plastic, but feels premium quality.

5) Audio : normal affair on the stereo loudspeakers, but absolutely amazing on the earphones... the inbuilt amplifier is a beast.

Verdict : better than the rest in the market, worth every single penny.

Workaround for known issues :-

1. Vedio format/codec support : use "MX-player" or "dice player".... I am able to play any damn format, whether 720p or 1080p.

2. Media apps unable to access files (photos, videos, music) on the external SD card : use "quickpic" for images and "power Amp" for music. Both these apps have the option that lets the user choose which folder should be accessed.

3. Wifi sleep issue : use the app "advanced wifi lock"..free version.

I agree I am a sony fanboy,, but truth remains that if you have will to make things work, u will stick to your faith.

Any queries... pls respond to this thread... will be happy to explore n share more workarounds,, if required.

Hi everyone, was watching some youtube videos about launcher 7 and found this one

Im looking to get the transition animation effect this guy has when he goes back to the home screen, I donated to get the full version but still dont seem to get the option to get that.

also does anyone know how to get the animated contacts tile ? :P

thanks a lot !!
[Galaxy S II General] Rollies77:
As far as I know, it's the only transition animation of Launcher7. What you can do in the settings is to lower the speed of the animation. I guess the SGS2 is just too fast for it :P

no , no , its totally different. Even on my launcher seven when changing from app list to home screen it wont have any animation, on this video he has animation when going into the app list and back.

Pretty sure its a different animation :(

There are a lot of guides currently out there for Android. If you enter the right search phrase, go to the right device sub-category, or someone finds them and posts them in the right topic.

We have been looking for a way to make it less likely to be misdirected by putting the guides into simple, basic categories and then simply tagging them with common search terms. This makes every guide right there and easy to find, but still possible of being searched out.

NoobGuides

Guides can be submitted by everyone and have a rating system that is used to decide if the guide stays or goes. It passes a basic approval just to make sure it isn't completely irrelevant (ie. How to watch Porn on the HTC Hero) and then remains until "voted from the island"

Hopefully this site can be a good resource for everyone who has been looking for a guide, or generously offering guides to others to help keep the forums organized and serve as a "library" of information that will not get lost among other posts.

You loose all blur stuff. If you ran or have used cm7 before, you'll want it again and again. It's snappy and smooth. My stock blur would fc on me but my photon w cm7 has not fc once yet.

For charge times, I was at 27% (after 3 days run time) and I got to 95% in less then an hour and a half.

This week I may flash the beta kernel for cm7 and retest but depends on work schedule. Still trying to get a good calculation of cm7 and battery run time. So far amazing!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] kyentabug:
I have seen many posts about the enigma of charging with USB vs OEM vs Generic chargers, all of various output mA ranges, so I became curious. I used an app called CurrentWidget to log the charge current from a system proc file called "batt_chg_current" located under /sys. The capture was set to poll every 60 seconds, of which I tested 5 types of charging devices for a full charge cycle* (100% 3-4hrs). Each charger used is listed below noting the output in mA.

Chart Review

The slope you see is the battery reaching 75% charge, my theory: this is when the device drops the mA draw so the battery can "float charge" (to prevent overcharging) until the battery reaches 100%.

You'll also notice the USB took longer to charge then the regular higher output devices.

You may notice the "Generic USB Car" charger, which we have all seen available online for the bargain price of $3-10. While it is tempting, I would caution anyone from using this hardware because my phone actually rebooted during the charge cycle, which is visible in the chart*. You may also notice the erratic charging pattern, this was visible with another 1A generic USB charger, so I feel the probability of the device being defective was slim and more likely cheap components.

Chargers:

AC - Samsung OEM [750mA]

AC - Blackberry OEM [750mA]

Car - Samsung OEM [750mA]

Car - Generic USB [1000mA]

USB Computer - OEM U9 Cable
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gr8hairy1:
Thanks for the awesome info. Glad I've avoided the cheap stuff.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
To add some clarifications:

1) You're obviously using my kernel since CW actually gets data. However you didn't read my kernel's OP regarding the scale factor for CW data.

2) That generic "1A" car charger is probably similar to the Monoprice car chargers I have. These are the one time in my life I've been dissatisfied with a Monoprice product. The ones I have are probably good for 300-400 mA at best.

3) Actual charge current limit is 650 mA on AC. 400 mA on USB

4) The dropping charge current at the end of the cycle is normal. Once a Li-Ion charger hits 4.2 volts, it holds voltage there and current drops. Once current drops below a certain threshold, charging is terminated. Note that "erratic" charging in the CV phase isn't a charger problem, just that our device counts CPU/screen usage against the charge current limit. "Erratic" charging during the CC phase is bad though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] kyentabug:
1. Correct, isn't everybody? its a solid kernel. :) Yup you're right, I totally missed the CW section. I have updated the chart to reflect the 2.85.

2. Yes, agreed

3. After updating numbers, per #1, the data reflects your statement.

4. Well stated.

So I am currently running Virtuous Affinity and I seem to be having problems with an Android OS bug...but I'm not sure how I can fix it...if there is a fix. Below I have posted a screenshot showing that Android OS has used up over 40% of my battery. I have barely used my phone today other than checking my email a couple of times and one 10 minute phone call. Usually when my battery drains, it is because of the display, but lately I've been having more drain coming from the Android OS processes. The Android OS shouldn't be using that much of the battery should it? Does anyone have any suggestion for a fix?? Should I try a different Kernel...or maybe try using one of the OC/UV apps? Thank you for any suggestions.

Yeah...I just don't know if it's necessarily a ROM issue. I had Virtuous Unity which was a pretty stable ROM and the Android OS problem popped up there too. Some days I'm fine when I just reboot in the morning...I can use it pretty heavily and it will last me all day. Other days it seems like something triggers the bug...and I can't pin down any one thing that does it. I'm going to try adjusting the voltage and cpu settings and see if maybe it is a problem with the built in governor. If not, I might switch to CM7 and see if that has the same problem...at least then I'd know that it is definitely an issue with the phone itself.

In Miui i get 30% more battery life than unity, but still bad life from stock.

Not sure how people are getting morethan a day.

Some one in a thread said it could be the kernel, some say battery calibration(which i already did) and some say its bad battery(its same battery have a day last week with stock ROM).

Anyone, better suggestion?
