[Acer Iconia Tab A100] loudog3114:
So, I got my a100 yesterday and wanted to see how much I could squeeze out of it. I manage to get 11+ out of my a500 on a plane trip, so I figured I could be effective here as well. Before I go any further let me say, I tweaked mine for watching movies on long plane rides. Meaning low light, no wifi type scenarios.

Using setcpu I down clocked to 6xx (whatever the preset clock is) and a conservative governor. Then, I set the brightness to about 10%. Then, I used moboplayer and set the in-app brightness to about 15% as well. This is still quite view-able in dark areas, like on a plane with the lights out. I ran the same movie over and over until I reached about 10%. I used a calculator to guess the remaining time left, as I needed the remaining 10% to finish up a few other things. Assuming the last 10% falls at the same rate as the rest, I would be at 7.1 hours of battery life purely watching video. Pretty good if you ask me. Hope this can help somebody in a similar scenario.

This is on par with what I get while reading and playing back music. I use poweramp to playback music off my sdcard, while reading ebooks with Aldiko.

Airplane mode turned on and no wireless on, backlight set to the lowest possible, setcpu set to 312 max, apps zipaligned for lower memory usage, tons of apps frozen from autostart and I get roughly 7 hrs (depending on if I've let it sit around for a bit).
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] loudog3114:
I actually ended up getting 8 the other day with the same settings, pretty happy with that.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] BigGunn:
I have the brightness turned down to the minimum, no underclocking or anything & this was my result with just general Facebook & Twitter checking as well as this and some ebook reading. Had just plugged it in when I took the screenshot.

They are putting so much effort into these new interfaces - now all redone for ICS. And you look at these new interfaces and you say to yourself - WHY?!

Take Samsung's new TW for ICS. Why oh why would they take anything that is so fresh and new and put the same old TW - making the phone look like it's old before it even came out?

Now HTC are doing the same.

They are all missing out on the fact that users would rather just have it 'the way it is". This is the reason XDA is so full with people changing the roms, and so on.

I think it might have to do with Apples patent lawsuit.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] regP:
Just because you don't like it doesn't mean everyone feels the same as you. Thats the beauty of having choices unlike other manufactures that stick you with one UI.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] vsc:
You are missing the point. Manufactures believe if they sell the stock Android experience then there is little to differentiate their product from the next. I'm not justifying it, only trying to explain the marketing mindset.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JHaste:
this ^^

and each manufacturer adds little tidbits that are meant to "enhance" the user experience... similarly why dont toyota, honda, ford, ect all just have the same exact exterior and interior of their cars and they just change a bit of parts under the hood? thats essentially what phone manufacturers would be doing if they all ran stock android... no they tweak things up... i personally think touchwiz is a waste of space on phones but their interface on my GT10.1 is not too bad really...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JaiaV:
Samsung's press release on their reasoning for not updating their SGS phones to ICS was that they would have to leave Touchwiz out, and therefore deprive their customers of features that were in Touchwiz, even though ICS has most of those features and more built in natively. Hence, Samsung really and truly believes their UI to be superior, and for them and many of their loyal customers this is possibly true. We are all allowed to have our own opinion of that, however.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Avelnan:
Most people in this world using Android don't even know what AOSP looks like. Take my Dad for example, he thinks his stock G2x has TouchWiz. and my Mom didn't even know she had Android on it until I told her.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JHaste:
thats funny yet consistent with the ignorance of my parents who both think they have droids when they have a mytouch4g and a vibrant

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kgeissler:
I plug my phone into the charger, the battery icon shows a thunderbolt, then after about 30 seconds, the thunderbolt goes away and it won't charge. If I turn the phone off, it charges fine.

Anyone else see this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cc16177:
No but I have noticed that the phone doesn't really like to charge to 100%... for whatever reason it says fully charged but as soon as I take it off it's 90%.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Smokeey:
Nope, but it does seem to charge very very very quickly.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chrono_Tata:
Never had any problems like that. Have you tried using a different USB cable?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kgeissler:
I think I may have over reacted. I think the at&t charger I was using is bad. I tried to charge a friends phone and it did the same thing. Charged for about 10 seconds then stopped. I then got another charger and it seems to be charging fine.
[Thunderbolt General] skunklover:
Is there a way to remove CWM from my Thunderbolt and reapply the stock recovery? Specifically, without removing any of my data?

I figured that since it was possible to flash new versions of CWM directly, it would be possible to just flash the stock recovery?
[Thunderbolt General] ByteSizeSln:
There is no "stock recovery" per-se (can't browse SD card for zips, etc). You "could" return to stock w/o root (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1310014) or stock, rooted (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1401959), and other threads (some in "other" forums), depending on what ROM you currently have and root method used.

Why would you want to eliminate a useful recovery tool?
[Thunderbolt General] swfreak18:
Not sure what has changed but as you can see in the screenshots, the version number and dates have changed so it appears to be different.

I've extracted the stock kernel from the 2.11.605.9 update and zipped it up for anyone who wants it.

MD5: 0A6BE3CF9FFC451BC9861920ADD97367

Just wipe cache and flash the zip in recovery. Confirmed working on Gingeritis 3D but should work on any Sense-based rom.

As always, flash at your own risk. Recommend performing a backup before flashing.
[Thunderbolt General] drx69:
dang... it looks like it broke wireless... just keep getting error for status. I have formated dalvik and hope that does it... otherwise i need to find the previous kernel
[Thunderbolt General] swfreak18:
What rom are you running? Wireless is working for me on Gingeritis 3D.
[Thunderbolt General] drx69:
stock 2.11.605.5 with .9 radio
[Thunderbolt General] swfreak18:
Did you wipe cache and dalvik before flashing? If not, try that and flash again.

The version of Gingeritis I'm running is based off of 2.11.605.5 and I've flashed the 2.11.605.9 radios so I wouldn't expect there to be an issue for you.
[Thunderbolt General] pretzel86:
thank you!
[HTC Sensation] LOSTLOGIC89:

[HTC Sensation] nonsoike:
Stable, Gallery and Music Apps Work

You don't seem to be popular but your ROM is the best for me so far. The gallery and the music apps work fine for me unlike two other more popular ICS ROMs that I tried.

I will be sticking with this one. Well done.
[HTC Sensation] ndavidetnt:
something like 10 times better than every other ics roms. congratulation. looking forward for future improvements.

I have a doubt: I jest downloaded system tuner and did the trick to awake the cpu1 at boot. But it's locked at 392 MHz and I don't see/fell any performance boost at all.

little OT: where can I find some explanation on how the dual core is implemented on our sensation? I mean something not for noobs. I'm studying computer engineering and I want to focus on this topic. Thanks
[HTC Sensation] philippebla:
good evening,

use since its release and using system tuner full version, the top, no lag or re boot,

For my part, your work is perfect, thank you

Um i can't see stuff on my memory card unless i use a file manager. my music is not showing up nor are the pictures. Any one have this problem or is there a fix i'm unaware of? besides that i'm enjoying this rom.:)

[HTC Sensation] hakanito:
happy new year to all...i have a question ;is it possible to flash stock kernel 1.5 dual core?
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
No because that is not an ICS kernel. If you own an xe then it will run at 1.5 if not it will run at 1.2
[HTC Sensation] LOSTLOGIC89:
This rom is based on ics, so not possible .
[HTC Sensation] hakanito:
2 days with your rom and didnt have any problem ..its the best ics for now i think...can i use setcpu o somehing similar in this rom? anyone tried smooth rosie patch of rc team¿ how is it¿ thanx..
[HTC Sensation] LOSTLOGIC89:
Thanks, i really wanted to keep working on this rom.

You can system tuner .

Added a donator

Thanks Brypilot, hopefully i ll get enough donations soon, then i ll purchase a sensation, so i can keep working on this rom.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EvanVanVan:
I've noticed a few times over the past week, sometimes Windows Explorer shows different files/folders when connected via MTP then when browsing on the phone with OI File Manager...

Just now, I made a titanium backup of Google Wallet (not connected via MTP), and its supposed to be saved in the \TitaniumBackup\ folder. I connected up my USB and opened "Internal Storage". The TitaniumBackup folder isnt there, yet I see it with OI File Manager on the phone...

Another instance, I deleted a folder via MTP in windows explorer, it disappeared normally...But then I open OI File Manager on the phone (while it's still connected in this instance) and the folder was still there. Even after I refreshed in Windows the file was supposedly gone.

Any suggestions?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EvanVanVan:
...bump...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cancerouspete:
This was driving me crazy, so i spent the past 45 minutes screwing around, and have come to this conclusion: MTP is using the Media Storage in android, the same program that takes forevvvverrr to refresh your photo gallery. Get an app called "SDrescan" and force a media rescan. you can actually watch your windows explorer refresh the folder. if you have alot of stuff, it could take a bit of time (i only had a few files, but they refused to show up)

Again, "SDrescan" seems to fix the MTP refresh/hidden files issue
[HTC EVO 3D] rgloria12:
I have had the 3vo for quite a few months now, and think that the time has come to finally root and flash some good stuff, but was wondering what would be the best rom to flash. I know that its better to try out a couple to see which one suits me best, but I would like to skip all the hassle of experimenting with many roms, and just go straight to the ones that others are using and are happy with. So what rom are you all using, and would you recommend that over the rest? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. I should have mentioned this before, but its cdma.
[HTC EVO 3D] Bebida:
I don't know if your gsm or cdma but from the gsm side of things I have tried most. Leedroid is always the one I come back too. It's stable has loads of support and great tweaks thanks to Jan and daniels and also some good theme options. The best imo.
[HTC EVO 3D] rgloria12:
thanks for your input. Unfortunately, I own a cdma Evo 3D.
[HTC EVO 3D] Bebida:
Fair play. From what I've seen ported miui or joelz ROM look awesome!
[HTC EVO 3D] troyboytn:
If youre looking for a great "Senceless/ASOP" rom.... MIUI

a great full featured closer to stock looking Sence 3.0 rom.....Wildshooter or CleanRom

a great tweaked and themed rom.....Warm 2.3 is the only way to go

or a great Sence 3.5 rom....JoelZ's Prime XL 3G

of course, there are more choices but these IMO are the best hands down and of course others will have different opinions
[HTC EVO 3D] genuser:
Fresh 4.0.6 is a great daily rom. Very close to stock with some extras but runs without issues and fully functioning.

I've tried a bunch and I really perfer Olympus Trinity XE... here is the link: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1327237

It's got a lot of awesome stuff built in like beats audio and sony bravia hd..

I like mine with a blue zeus theme instead of the default red but if you follow the instructions to flash it, everything will work.. don't skip out on the instructions tho because everyone who skips the wiping the cash and data parts because they think they are too smart ends up having troubles later.
[HTC EVO 3D] rgloria12:
Thanks a lot for your input. This sure narrows down the list. I will try them out and see which I like best. From what I have seen MIUI looks awesome, but the camera isn't functional, which is something that really comes in handy this time of the year.

If this is true how can you transfer your files to phone.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Superguy:
If you use Windows, it shows up as a device below where your drive letters are in Explorer. Click on the device, then click on Internal storage and you see folders. Works fine. It just won't have a drive letter like USB Mass Storage does.

That said, it's definitely slower than the mass storage version.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
It's not just the Galaxy Nexus, its Ice Cream Sandwich (Android 4.0) in general.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] syntrix:
MTP - It's fast, it works great. It also allows you to access files from your PC AND the phone at the same time!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Valynor:
Not true. Please use the search, this has been discussed many times.

ICS supports USB mass storage, just not for the built-in memory. If the Nexus had a microSD slot, it would be accessible via USB mass storage.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phazerorg:
And it should be pointed out that the advantage to all this is that you have all your internal space available for both apps/data and your photo/media/other storage. There's no fixed amount for apps anymore. You can fill your device with gigs of apps, or gigs of music and videos, or any combination. Also, no need to move apps to the SD card. And you don't lose the SD card storage from the phone when you connect by USB like you do with mass storage. (note that by "SD card" I mean either a real SD card, or a partition that pretends to be one, like how pre-ICS phones handle internal storage)

It's up to your own individual use and preference as to whether this is "better" or not. But the above is the justification for it. Personally, I don't care as long as I can still easily transfer to and from the phone, which I can.

It should also be noted that some people have experienced issues with MTP (the alternative ICS is using instead of USB mass storage). It's worked fine for me (though slower, as noted), but some people have reported problems.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] droidstyle:
Exactly! Finally somebody laid it out there in plain english!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pukemon:
this. and emphasis on it's slower than usb mass storage. and/or samsung used some low quality memory.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neederishelp:
wow, thanks for explaining it in plain English
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
No it's not, the nexus s on ice cream sandwich has USB mass storage.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Neo3D:
It's not fast. If you consider slow as molasses fast. I wish it still had USB mass storage mode. Why did they get rid of it? What's the advantage besides it being slower so you have enough time to water the lawn, watch it grow and mow it before your files finish transferring over?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neederishelp:
You can actually use the phone ...like stated before, the entire phone is one partition, and if you had USB msm, you wouldn't be able to use the GN...at least that's how I understand it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] droidstyle:
did you not read the prior posts explaining this?

quoted from phazeorg

"And it should be pointed out that the advantage to all this is that you have all your internal space available for both apps/data and your photo/media/other storage. There's no fixed amount for apps anymore. You can fill your device with gigs of apps, or gigs of music and videos, or any combination. Also, no need to move apps to the SD card. And you don't lose the SD card storage from the phone when you connect by USB like you do with mass storage. (note that by "SD card" I mean either a real SD card, or a partition that pretends to be one, like how pre-ICS phones handle internal storage)"

This means you will no longer get force closes from your app storage partition filling up(datadata folder).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Neo3D:
So, there's no way to just have 1 partition for all data/app/OS unless they got rid of USB MS Mode? I wish they gave us the option instead of forcing it on us, like Apple likes to do with their customers.

For myself, I don't really care if the phone storage goes into a "standby mode" when I have to copy files to it. It would copy SO MUCH FASTER that I wouldn't even have to worry about not being able to use my phone while copying files to it. But, noooo, instead, I have to wait 45min to copy a 2.5gb movie onto it.

Sure, I can use the phone while it's copying, but the phone is tied to a computer for 45 min!

Ideally, I see the great benefit in not having a separate "SD card" partition, but why can't they just have one partition

and

USB Mass Storage Mode?

Seems like Google's always taking 1 step forward, 2 steps back. :(
