[HTC Titan] xtrememanix:
yeah . the battery really last longer than i expected it to be . and i also get the same problem for the first 10% .

after unplugged, it would drain like 18% within the first hour ! .
[HTC Titan] absolute85:
Ah, so it's normal. I was worried at first, but when I realized it lasted more through the day, I understood it isn't an issue.
[HTC Titan] Wevenhuis:
I got my mugen 1950 MAh battery three days ago. Charged according to the instructions which is a continuous trickle charge of 3-4 hours after fully charging, followd by a full days use to low battery. After this I can charge normally to full charge. I quickly noticed a huge difference in daily use. Although I also experience a quick drainage in the first percents of full charge, from 50% and downwards takes a long time. Yesterday had a day trip on the train with onboard wifi and then again wifi in a restaurant. Played continous streaming over TuneIn radio whilst playing a wordament, often switching to weave, an odd youtube video here and there, some email checking etc. I left at 13.30 and came home at 23:00 hrs. By 22.00 hrs I needed a first recharge. With the standard 1600 MAh battery I would already have needed to charge by dinnertime. So an extra 4 hours of extra heavy usage on one charge is a big bonus. I can imagine that if I less demanding of my phone I could use it in stand by with not data connection for 72 hrs, copared to 1 1/2 dag on the 1600 MAh of the stock battery.

Now I can't wait to try the 3600 MAh battery!
[HTC Titan] Gnarfsan:
I went to Berlin this weekend and stayed two nights. I had charged the phone before I went down there but didn't charge it during the two days. I took around 25 pictures, used HTC locations to find points of interest, and also navigate to them using the GPS. I made a few calls took notes and texted a bit. I didn't try to save battery life because I had a charger with me. But when I got home, it still had 39% left. That's pretty amazing.

I had the mugen 1950 mAh battery in and data off during the trip.
[HTC Titan] JP Lyon:
Poor reception after using the back door from Mugen Power Batteries

Comments of Mugen Power Battery from Facebook user Moe Ali

I just ordered and received the back door and it still gives the phone horrible reception. And it looks like the old one I had. So how will I get good signals? And I ordered from mugen

Repy from MP:

Hi Moe! Have you ordered a battery for Sensation? We have improved the backdoor and solved the issue with the reception.

Moe Ali:

I've already done that. And I've been sent a door from the exact same website u posted and the door still has horrible reception. It looks exactly like the other door I have.
[HTC Titan] Gnarfsan:
Thanks JP. I will keep that in mind. But I would like to add that you can use the original back plate with the 1950 mAh battery.
[HTC Titan] 92GTA:
Looks like nothing for the Titan II yet. Maybe they think people are afraid to remove the cover on the back?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] FatGuyWithWifi:
hey i need help getting my wifi flyer back to stock from the fly honey rom. i know its my fault cause in the installation instructions they told me to make sure there was an ruu for it and i didnt. thats on me. but i was just wondering if anyone might know a way to get it back to stock. id appreciate any help.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] triscuit1983:
Which version of the Flyer do you have? First you have to find your RUU. Chances are Football posted one in his shipped ROM thread. globatron has posted a few times giving exact instructions on how to get back to stock.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] FatGuyWithWifi:
i have the best buy wifi one (not sure if that answers your question) and last time i looked at fottbals thread the ruu wasnt on there. ill give globatrons thread a look tho.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] FatGuyWithWifi:
mind helping me find his post? lol
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:

I have a BB Flyer too and this is the one I'd use. If you used globatron's method to get to HC, he has downgrade institutions in the second post of his upgrade thread.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
+1. It is not just enough to run the ruu. You bead to be mindful of your current status and if it requiresadditional steps

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jedreg:
I have an issue with photos taken in dark conditions, they are all messed up, or broken if you will, looking like corrupted JPG. In slightly better light conditions everything is fine. Reboot did not help. It happens now with default camera in sebaastian15's AIO 2.5 but I have also noticed it in AIO 2.2. Is there a way to upgrade/replace stock (sense 3.5) camera? Did anyone experienced such an issue?

I could insert image of screwed up photo but "noobs" like me have no access rights, so to look at it, make up and URL from this "img43.imageshack.us/img43/3977/imag0616d.jpg" or that one "img838.imageshack.us/img838/5885/imag0610g.jpg".

Also do not ask me to ask this question on the ROM thread... again, I am just a dumb "noob" so I cannot comment on super-duper-exclusive dev threads.

Unable to see these images.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kshitijgandhi:
same here

the same happened with me too

but on older versions of runnymede and runnymedemod007

mine even used to restart the whole phone

i suggest using market apps like camera 360 or others if you prefer
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jedreg:
I was trying to avoid non-sense (hehe) cameras, but I will give it a try to be able to take night picture despite low quality... what I have noticed (but have to prove tonight) is that after I changed preferred ISO to 800 the picture taken is ok, and even when I set it back to "auto" - this sounds like ISO property is not really set and may mess up when pixel brightness computation in low light conditions (just a theorem).

ckpv5, I copied&pasted address to URL bar of web browser and it works for me, maybe you do not have access to imageshack server. When I reach "10 mails level" I will just embed it here.

-andy.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
Yeah.. I guess it is no access as this is what I got http://imageshack.us/img/blocked_login.jpg

Anyway... your workaround on the problem is good.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jedreg:
Night test done... default camera screws up pictures unless you manually set ISO. Re-checking "auto" does not help, but setting 400 or 800 helped me to make couple souvenir pictures.

hi, in wm6.5 i had an usefull app wich auto disconnect data when not needed and auto reconnect when some service required data...

does it exist a similar .xap in WP7? it could help so much to solve the battery drain iussue(for me worked so well in WM 6.5)...
[Kindle Fire General] hachiueno:
Hi!

I'm about to receive the Kindle Fire, and I try to cure my curiosity by finding answers to all my questions. XDA has answered most of them, but I've one more question I hope you can help me with.

I know I'll spend a lot of time using the Kindle Fire at home, mostly reading and listening to music. My question is therefore: How should I charge and use the Kindle? Let's say the battery is 100%, and I plug in the charger and start reading - will the Kindle continue to charge it, use some, charge it (100%, 98%, 100%, 98%...), or stop the charging completely and power it directly from the charger?

Will I shorten the lifetime of the battery by plugging in the charger if the battery level is 100%? I know it's good for the battery to be used, so I'll of course do that from time to time.
[Kindle Fire General] Veritass:
The life spam of the charger will shorten but not the kindle. If ur kindle is at 100 then the charger wellkeep it at 100.
[Kindle Fire General] FoibleOfHumanity:
If im not mistaken, I believe its good to fully drain and recharge your battery once in a while(since the battery is li-ion) to maintain the lifespan of the battery.

As for needing to be tethered to the wall by the charger, I have not found that as something I need to do at home, especially since I prefer to move around.

In short you can just use the kindle normally while letting the battery normally discharge and then recharge it when it starts to get low. To help with the battery life you should also adjust the brightness according to the light.
[Kindle Fire General] hachiueno:
Yes, thank you for your answers :) The reason as to why I'm a bit concerned about this is that I've seen laptop batteries' capacities getting seriously reduced after having the battery installed while having the charger connected simultaneously at all times. I guess this is due to bad charging control, and that the chargers have tried to charge the batteries even though they were 100%.

Since the Kindle Fire has a non-removable battery (more or less...), I would like to treat my battery as good as possible :)
[Kindle Fire General] killyy:
You don't need to worry about kindle fire battery, trust me, it's very good. My Kindle Fire doesn't get charged when the AC Adapter is connected, don't know if it's only me since I don't use an US Charger. I can charge only in sleep mode.

Remember to turn wifi off when you don't need it, even if it is in sleep mode. You will see that the battery will last much longer with wifi off.

Regarding charging kindle fire, I always use it till 30% and then I charge it Full.
[Kindle Fire General] SikYou:
My battery is sometimes lasting over 4 days with light use so charging is not a frequent thing. I always drain the battery to less than 5% before recharging. I can start a 25 minutes tv show when I'm at less than 10% and not worry about the battery dying before the show is over.
[Kindle Fire General] boomn:
These Li-Ion batteries and charging circuits have built in protection circuits to prevent themselves from ever being overcharged (because overcharging a LiIon battery can cause thermal runaway, i.e. it gets extremely hot and then explodes).

That problem you've seen with laptop batteries can still happen to any Li-Ion battery though (assuming those were Li-Ion laptop batteries too. NiMh batters have their own problems). The problem isn't overcharging the battery but in keeping it at a high charge state for a long time without cycling it. I don't know where these figures come from, but I've been told that to maintain consistent battery life over time you should let your Li-Ion batterys run down every two weeks or so, that for long-term storage when not being used they should be left at around 40% charge, and that not charging them past 80% full can even extend the life of the battery
[Kindle Fire General] Printerscape:
I don't fancy myself a battery expert, but damn are there some shady information here.

Here's the "down low":

For Li-based batteries (pretty much all modern electronics), they have limited life from the get go, a limited charge cycle (how many times it can get discharged / charged).

If you leave it plugged in at all times, despite what you may think, this will actually KILL the battery very quickly. Why? Batteries are not kept charged at full 100% (it can cause long-term damage if it does so). It charges to 100%, and drains up to 10%, and keeps it steady at that level. If it gets lower, it recharges again (there goes your limited charge cycle in a flash).

What you should do is charge it full, unplug, and recharge when it's "used" (e.g. 30-80%), not when it's almost full (waste of the cycle), or when it's almost empty (suffers too much stress).

Avoid hot areas (leaving the battery / device in a hot car), as heat also reduces the lifetime of the cycles.

For long term storage, as boomn said, 40%, cool and dry place is ideal.

For more info, read it here at Battery University.

Ignore everything above for Ni-based batteries. I won't go into details on prolonging Ni-based battery's life since it's not relevant here, but you can read up on that site Battery University (charging and discharging).
[Kindle Fire General] hachiueno:
Thank you so much for your replies! A lot of great information here, especially your last answer, Printerscape. Hope to keep my battery in shape for a long time.

Can't wait to get my Kindle... and yes, first 100%, then I'll unplug it and use it for some hours. It will be interesting to see if user replaceable batteries will be offered for the Kindle Fire in the future. After having seen the iFixit teardown, it seems to be a reasonable task.
[Kindle Fire General] dragossh:
I was under the impression that a charge cycle doesn't happen every time you get to 100%. Say you run it down to 50%, charge it to 100%, run it down to 50% then charge it to 100% again, only then it would count as a full charge cycle.
[Kindle Fire General] hachiueno:
This is my impression as well. Apple mentions the same thing regarding charging and cycles: http://www.apple.com/batteries/:

Android Market celebrates 10 Billion app downloads. To celebrate, Google will sell selected apps for 10 CENTS over the next 10 days. Selection of apps will change daily. :D
[Eee Pad Transformer General] patriotaus:
Unfortunately Asphalt 6 HD can't be downloaded for 10cents on the transformer :(

I ended up buying heaps of those 10 for my phone and transformer. Would love to have bought Asphalt though.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] colint3:
10c apps

Just had a look on market and there is nothing there about 10billion apps or any 10c apps.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Rumbleweed:
Not sure what market you went to, but large announcement on home page announcing this.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] AstroTrain:
The only app I would want on 10 cent promo is Diceplayer but doubt it will be on the list.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] EP2008:
The funny thing is, I got most of these apps free from the Amazon "free app of the day" specials. LOL Minecraft was a great deal.

-- Sent from my HP TouchPad using Communities
[Eee Pad Transformer General] CrazyPeter:
Amazon deals were US-only.

This is global. I just bought a crap-load of apps and games for 10p (well 7), more shopping for 10p stuff tomorrow...

It's all very decent stuff too, no crap or old stuff here.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] brachiopod:
Sorry, about a billion of them were mine.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] EP2008:
I'm in Canada. There are ways of getting Amazon to work anywhere, you just have to look. I'm glad Google is doing this. It helps to ignight more passion for the devices we use.

just bought minecraft, even though i have no desire to play it. couldn't pass up 10 cents though :)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] r_nt:
Same here! Figured, maybe one day... Maybe. :rolleyes: Picked up nearly all of them, though I couldn't get asphalt 6. Will keep checking daily, as I do Amazon. Was just wondering earlier today if the market would ever do what Amazon is doing and, well. Close. It ain't free, but still!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] reaperzero:
oh cool field runners is in the 10 cents bucket
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mace242:
I got minecraft too. Mainly in the hope that they add survival....
[Eee Pad Transformer General] athani:
The same apps still. Are we sure there'll be 10 new apps each day? Kinda sounds too good to be true.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] goodintentions:
Ok, I'll admit it. I'm an idiot. I'm having trouble finding these 10 cents apps. Please link or tell me how to find them.

Nevermind. It's that big-ass logo on top. Haha.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] davebugyi:
Got Minecraft and GLWG instantly :P

Now just have to wait to add the "PC" features to MineCraft... muhahahaha :D
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Burgj:
Bought all of them, excellent deal, who could turn down Minecraft for 10 cents!?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Bob Smith42:
Why not? What happens? I am surprised.

Wonder if there are many other apps that will not work on the transformer?

Dont need the tablet. Just go to the market page and download them directly to your tablet

Also i did not read through this thread. just skimmed. If this info has already been posted. well then more people see the deals.

By the way, Anyone with a Must buy list?

Thank you .

Hey, anyone have the issue on FIREFOX where App snapshots dont display. I have to use IE to see the pics
[Eee Pad Transformer General] brachiopod:
They charged me 11 cents for one of the apps for some reason, I'm filing a complaint! heh. How can they afford to run CC charges through for 10 cents, don't they pay any merchant fees?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] athani:
Are you sure your credit card has not charged you that extra cent? Maybe for a low value or a foreign exchange transaction.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] maxvsmith:
I've never been charged an extra cent. It could be the credit card or bank you use.

But damn that sucks. I would have LOVED to get swiftkey X, soundhound (infinite) and minecraft.

I've really been wanting to try minecraft. Regardless I get read it later pro, widgets HD, and Air Sync. Has asphalt 6 HD been working for anyone's Transformer?

The demo never worked for me and said my device was not supported. I wasn't sure if the full version works or not.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] brachiopod:
Possibly, a one cent fee though? All the other ones are coming in at 0.10. I have no idea, but one charge was definitely 0.11. I'M FILING A CLAIM OMG heh. Seriously, these 10 cent apps are great. My guess is some kind of rounding error to foreign currency, maybe the exchange rate changed as the dollar tanks.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Rumbleweed:
Check the developer of the app. It may not be a U.S. developer and an exchange fee was added as a result. This is why it would only appear on one app.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] frosty5689:
I wish Google would accept payment and transfer to Developer on our behalf. Saves our transaction fees...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Spidey01:
Better would be to include it in the listed price.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Rumbleweed:
Would only work if all exchange rates were the same

[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] chrisrotolo:
well, just having a peek around today. experimenting with any cut (allows you to add custom "actvities" not usually available on device), found a factory mode (factory.apk),

see screenshot with calculator (&*#). People in the Tab 10.1 forums were somehow had this on their tabs and it was unuseable. So extracted and the apk and sure enough found the .smali with all the codes. Eventhandler.smali had them, it has two version, the normal *#*#,#*#* android_secret_codes and has this: const-string v2, "(+197328640+", Ive tried inputting: (+197328640 then pressing equals key, it says wrong fromat. All of the *#*# codes work just like they would in the dialer.

Ive actually found a few more codes, my other screen capture is of a serial number screen which list my device as GT-P1010 (1st gen tab). Probably just what they told the FCC it was to avoid hassle.

I also found some other cool codes, one for RLZ Google partner setup and Phone Util, set USB to PDA or Modem.

I DO NOT recommend anyone try this. It would be fairly easy to do serious damage to your device.

these codes worked for me, Im sure theres more : http://www.android-hilfe.de/samsung-galaxy-w-i8150-forum/185540-testprogramme.html

and I can pastebin a copy of the .smali files with the codes if anyone IS interested.

What exactly am I looking for? nothing, just snooping.
