THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I have been searching for an EVDO US Cellular PRL for around a year now, and have never found one. I tried yours, and they work. How do you go about extracting them from a phone? I've never been able to figure that out. I really needed this since most of the places my Sprint phone roams in have little to none Verizon coverage, while there's perfect US Cellular 3G.
[HTC EVO 3D] gunfromsako:
Well it depends on what brand of phone you have. The ultimate goal is get into diag mode and from there you can use QPST or DFS to pull the prl.

I am having this issue with swiftkey X

I had the original one from amazon market and somehow triggered android market to think it was an upgrade. No I have been dealing with android market support for 3 weeks to get this working, however they can seem to clear this up...... Now I have missed buying the version X for half off and yesterday for $.10.

This is just a collection of random tweaks that I put together for all of you that want to see fast speed and good battery at the cost of stability. Credits go to TeamACID, ACS, Juwe, zepplinrocks, and a few others... The zip is attatched.

Whoops screwed that post up.. @marcusant, are these tweaks included in you're latest ROM already?
[Epic 4G Android Development] BogusBizzo:
Thankyou! Flashed and my **** wifi seems faster.
[Epic 4G Android Development] chkchkboom:
Improvement of battery life brings upon instability? Well that just plain sucks. I could really care less about overclocking. But..thats just me.

Is there a version of this tweak that might just carry the battery life end of the tweaks? Everything else can just work as it normaly would.

This is just a request...in no way is it a demand. Thank you
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
Are you saying stability is iffy?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Alias8818:
One note, this changed my "Build Number" to "MarcusantROM Revival v1".

Not necessarily a terrible, horrible thing.

Other than that, this is amazing.

Thank you a million.
[Epic 4G Android Development] endurance1:
can you post an explanation as to what exactly this does to achieve those things?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Alias8818:
There are a ton of files and tweaks actually included in this. Its mostly code changing/adding. For specifics, if you know the linux OS, you can peruse the files that are included in it.

How to get better battery life with synergy
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jedjo:

Ive been using synergy rls1 since its release and with the extended battery i can got about 2 days without charging
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dan330:
yeah.. i have been running Synergy + God mode... since release...

there are a few issues.. i am looking to try out some custom Kernels. what is the best ones to try out?

I have heard some talk about the Freedom kernel.. but is was released in July! seems kind of old... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1192529
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpikeOhio:
2 Days with what kind of use? I don't have an extended battery and as long as I didn't used the phone for anything other than a phone the battery was pretty good. If I tried to do anything that needed the display open...internet, angry birds, whatever....it wouldn't last an hour. Didn't matter whether I had auto brightness set or not. Went to San Antonio over the weekend turned the brightness all the way down on the plane (at night) and it still didn't last an hour. Had to use my wife's Epic! I used hers for an hour doing the same thing and only lost 10%. I'm currently attempting EnergyROM...so far it doesn't seem any better just using the kernel it comes with. Sorry I'm no help, I gave up on Synergy.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maurrubio:
I wanna know too !
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JollyGrnReefer:
I ran Synergy for a while and achieved excellent battery life. But, synergy is becoming outdated and not being currently developed. If you like synergy, strongly recommend switching to MikG 2.61, its a 2.1 + 3.0 sense rom. Definitely a superior rom thats updated and development ongoing. Battery life is better, and rom is faster and much smoother. Not bashing synergy, both roms are personal choice, but try MikG.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sitlet:
I will second this. I had a few minor problems with Synergy, including battery life, not horrible battery life, but worse than most roms. MikG is basically the exact same rom, and runs a lot smoother.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cman813:
Ok where can i find MikG. And do i have to update to amon RA root method.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sitlet:
In the development section with every other rom.

Amon RA is not a root method, it's a recovery. And no, you don't have to use Amon, clockwork works just fine.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thisisuzair:
It always has worked with any HTC, SONY or NOKIA phone, Sensation and Desire HD have a option of connect to PC, this phone doesn't seem to have one. I am not talking about using a HDTV CABLE ADAPTER to display the whole screen, however, (1) I am looking for my Samsung TV to read the SD card of my phone (2) and if possible would it read the Internal memory too.

Once again, I have purchased a HDTV Adapter, however, I want my TV to read my SD/Internal memory like it does with other phones. Please let me know if there is anything I could do to fix this.

TV does not have a wifi connection or an Ethernet connection.*'Programs like Allshare would be of no help whatsoever'.

Thanks

Sounds like all you need to do is enable USB debugging.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thisisuzair:
did that, after clicking on mass storage TV doesnt read USB, but the PC does. Samsung TV will read any other phone but not this.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thisisuzair:
after calling Samsung, they said they phone doesn't have that option like other phones do, so, I asked whether the HD cable would display the original resolution of the media or would it display the resolution of the phone, they told me that the cable would only display the resolution of the phone, now, if the TV was able to read my phone it wouldn't have been an issue. Any solution?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thisisuzair:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mermaidkiller:
For me on a Samsung TV LA32D400 this does not work. When connecting the S2 to the USB of the TV, then selecting USB on the TV, then pulling the notifications bar curtain and clicking on 'USB device connected' shows a green pupper which turns orange when I click it (USB debugging ON). So far so good works like on a PC.

Then for one second(!) I see Android USB on my TV and then it disappears and unmounts. An ordinary USB stick does work.

What is the problem here ?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] slackskillz:
I searched the forum but couldnt find any information on my particular question.

Is it OK to use a standard car charger and not worry about destroying my phone? I found one on ebay and think it might be a great deal if I dont have to worry about ruining my battery or phone.

It's not letting me post links so heres the item number. 120825299751

Thanks for your input.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] madman604:
Dream: buy best name brand. Reality: using dealextreme or ebay items. I personally have had no issues with ebay chargers. Just get one with at LEAST 1-2 Amp output.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Nihonno:
I think one has to be careful about the type of chargers you buy, car or home. I have a G1 and long time ago, when I bought a car charger, I noticed that the phone was running EXTREMELY hot after charging. Even though it was at 100%, the phone was still running very hot while in sleep mode. I was told that there are some chargers that do not have a special "chip or diode" that lets it communicate with the battery/kernel, telling the phone to stop charging.

I'm not sure if that's all true or not but I never took the chance with chargers that I couldn't find reviews on. It's not necessary to buy and EXPENSIVE charger, but more so, buy one that you can find reviews on. Although, reputable and expensive often go hand in hand.

On the OTHER hand, I bought a tmobile car charger at the about this time last year. It was not cheap and it worked very well. Pushed good amperage while charging and had an additional USB slot for more charging. The problem though is that the plug itself is a bit screwy. Only charges in certain positions, and I take care of my stuff so it's a bit of a bummer. So even the expensive, well backed chargers can just randomly fail.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
from personal experience the cheap accessories from Deal Extreme are very reliable, still using them after 3+ years
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] madman604:
Failing isnt the problem. Its when they burn out your phone with it in a double suicide. Oh make sure they have an internal fuse that will protect your phone against power surges from your car
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] slackskillz:
Thanks guys. The said charger thats on ebay Im looking at is supposedly an OEM sprint charger for the Samsung Epic, so I'm hoping its good quality. I'm just super scared of burning up a battery or ruining my phone. I have had car chargers in the past that did make my phone extremely hot too... so I dont want this to happen again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
oh, the OEM chargers are not very powerful

don't expect it to charge your phone while using the GPS and other stuff
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rich_RH:
I know that $60 unlimited plan with T-mobile provides me with 2gb of Data however, I can never get H+ or H or 3G at all. All I get is edge is there an issue with it? Can anyone help me?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Which Galaxy SII do you have? The T-Mobile version you get directly from T-Mobile? (SGH-T989) Or the International version you bought unlocked? (GT-I9100) It makes a difference. The International version (GT-I9100) doesn't have the hardware to pick up T-Mobile's 3/4G bands, so you would NEVER get H+, H, or 3G with that phone.

If you have the T-Mobile version (SGH-T989), you're in the wrong place. You need to be in this forum.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rich_RH:
I have the international version but i thought that t-mobile freqs are 1700 which is AWS and 2100 IMT?

or is the 2100 band AWS as well?

edit:

GSM arena states that the t-mobile vers is 850/1700/2100 and the eu vers is 850/900/1900/2100

I know that 1700 isnt supported but isnt 2100 workable?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peachpuff:
That's like trying to walk with one leg, not gonna happen, you need support for both bands kinda like what the gsm galaxy nexus has.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Agree with what peachpuff said. And if I remember correctly, T- Mobile uses one of those bands for upload and one for download. So you would definitely need both.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellcatDroid:
AFAIK the international I9100 only works fine on AT&T in the US.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watchpocket:
Let's say you're in the U.S. and you've got the international i9100 SGS2.

And let's say you can't get an AT&T signal in the place where you most need it.

You might well say screw AT&T's 4G speeds (which don't seem all that fast anyway), just give a freaking signal.

You might then go with a pre-paid, or a pay-as-you-go, or whatever, T-mobile 2G/EDGE data plan, because it's the only thing you can do.

The situation sucks, but you have, AFAIK, no other choices.

Do I trust this?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hijewpositive:
Yes, you can trust it. Its the EK02 over-the-air update from sprint. It'll update you to Android 2.3.6
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] locoboi187:
youll loose root, but take the official update anyway as you wont have to erase your data. then simply install root from the EKO2 sticky at development!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] geolemon:
I actually HAVEN'T rooted my phone yet, in part because I was curious how OTA updates went, lol.

Still considering holding out for ICS update... But my guess is there will be was too many tasty enhanced ICS-based roms to wait for the stock vanilla-ish one.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Zorachus:
Don't hold your breath for the official ICS update that Samsung/Sprint will push to our phones. Word last month per Samsung, was that the Galaxy SII line won't see the update until 2nd Qtr 2012 = April-June. And that the Galaxy S3 will be on sale right around that time.

This is very believable too, HTC took 6+ months to update their flagship device at the time, the EVO 4G to Gingerbread, which was originally released on the Nexus-S in December 2010, and the EVO 4G finally got it officially through HTC/Sprint in June 2011.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tragicallyhip:
Not to mention, if you ask an OG Epic owner, you'll find that in some cases, you could potentially be waiting 1+ years for an official update from Samsprint... but at least the hardware's nice :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
I can confirm that..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] outcircuit:
Dude, you're on XDA. Do whatever you want, someone will have a fix for just about everything.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AwfulFaded:
I realize the OP hasn't rooted his phone and was asking whether or not he can trust the update so where I'm going is somewhat off topic, but...

I've been running rooted but stock. Yesterday Sprint started nagging me about the update. On my old phone, when I said "install later" I would be reminded again in a few days. On THIS phone, it felt like I was being nagged every 15 minutes.

Because Sprint was so insistent, I came here with the same question: "can I trust it?" I read the above post, double checked the EKO2 sticky to make sure I'd still be able to root, then decided to let the Sprint update do it's job. The above post because it lead me to believe I would be unrooted as part of the process.

I let the phone reboot to apply the update. When I checked my phone later it had a warning triangle displayed (not sure if this is the "yellow triangle" or not). I panicked, swore a lot, prayed, and pulled the battery... my phone works. I'm running 2.3.4. I have the EG30 baseband. I still have root. As far as I can tell nothing happened.

In case I decide to stay stock and Sprint starts nagging me about updates again, do I need to unroot in order for the update to work?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Nick Venture:
This is my concern too. I only recently decided to root my phone and wonder if rooting it will mess up the update. I used the automated root method, and the one that doesn't use ODIN.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] littlemegaman:
Once we get the OTA update will we be able to do a factory reset while retaining that new 2.3.6? Or will the factory reset takes us back to the older version?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AwfulFaded:
I think I found the answer to my own question, here.

In order to get the OTA update you have to unroot and return to stock.

I tried calibrating and I think it made it worst after 3 minutes of usage my battery went from 100% to 74%
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SiNg0d:
Set your screen down to lowest brightness you can.

Turn off 3G if you are using it, turn off wifi and GPS when you don't need it.

Clean up your cache using the cache cleaners available on the market, they sometimes work for me.

Try to do this. Charge your phone until on the screen it says 100%. Now power off your phone and again plug it into the charger. In case the phone still shows its charging let it charge. Otherwise you are good to go.

Are you on the OC kernel? People have reported that using a few setting there can help increase battery life.

And yeah, try killing the background apps, ones that you truly don't need!

In the end face it, Ace has a lousy excuse of a battery :rolleyes:
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
Ouch. That doesn't sound cool. Send it for support or get the battery replaced. Sounds like a really faulty one.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] nilzkul:
Hey after switching off cell and then charging, does it exactly charge battery fully? and how do we come to know that it is charged full when switched off?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SiNg0d:
No battery can ever be fully charged. Over a period time, if a battery is charged 100% every time it could be damaged. So manufacturers generally limit the level the battery can be charged, around 95%. That's what I have heard.

As far as the above advice was concerned, I have come to notice that the charging sign tends to disappear and the battery shows 100% when charging, but once I turn off the phone and put it back to the charging, it shows that some charging is left to take place and proceeds to charge for some 5-10 mins more. First I thought must be calibrating error, but it was not, happened even after I calibrated.

Try it and see if that's the same case with you.
