On the sensation is it possible to configure the LEDs to blink until you read the txt message for example. I think it is currently set to blink for about a minute. On the HD2 I was able to make registery changes to do this.

I am on a stock 1.50 rom with stock kernel.
[HTC Sensation] geoffcorey:
I think faux has changed the led blink time, you'll have to look at his kernel. It requires a change in the kernel.

Here is BLN control

I tried it using the stock kernel and it was a no go. I think I'll play with kernels to see if any work for our phones. Anyone else have a go at this app yet?
[HTC Sensation] Stephen:
Those arnt quite what I am looking for. Faux123 suggested that you should be able to edit a file in the rom its self to control the time of the leds. I think you can make it stay on by setting it to 0. I just cant remember what file to edit.

As far as I know the kernel only defines the colour of the led and the time between each flash, not the actual length of time it flashes for. It is the rom that defines that. I am continuing to look and see if I can find the file.

i think this is default from htc sense o.0

otherwise - with miui you can set however you want

The last two days I have noticed if I run any data intensive app(i.e. internet radio) my phone reaches extremely high temperatures in excess of 115 degrees. Is anyone else seeing this? I could see this becoming a serious problem if it continues.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] droidmaninblack:
Yes, I have the same issue when I stream Pandora all day at work if I leave my device lying face up on my desk. Just tilt it up so the back gets some air and it will be fine. Won't get as hot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] propyls:
OMG run the navigation, the thing starts to fuse iron, right near the camera area.

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dario3040:
Only happens to me when I max the brightness, otherwise it's pretty cool.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bkerk25:
Maybe has something to do with extended battery. I can't imagine it is good for phone internals. Have to say I am considering returning before it burns out on me. Perhaps it is another in long line of Verizon g nexus problems. Love the phone design and performance but heat issue and battery life with data on is poor
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lambda30:
I also noticed that. Only after running it for 5 minutes or so.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bkerk25:
Yea...still overheating to over 117 degrees when I launch any data intensive app. I can't believe this, any other suggestions?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 05GT:
What app are you using to monitor temps?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] flintfirewalker:
Same here.

Although, its not too bad. The device gets hot at the same region (top of the phone, near there camera). I've had the phone for 2 weeks now. Done plenty of research, still trying to decide if I should return the phone (if this is hardware issue).

So far, read a bunch of forums and threads with ppl saying the same thing in different ways. Haven't heard from any one who says their gnex does not get hot during heavy use. What I have read, are some ppl saying it heats up less as more time passes.

I guess ill just hold on to my phone and hope for the best.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neok44:
data seems to burn this device up. Everything else i do it stays cold, but god forbid i spend 5 minutes on the internet, pops right up to 105+

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] weedahoe:
When i would OC my DX to 1.45Ghz i would always get hot and as high as 127

so 105 to me is nothing

but for all you guys who think its getting hot, what do you think happens to a processor when it gets tasked heavily?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dario3040:
Just turn the brightness down, I haven't gotten it higher than around 100, and that's with the brightness all the way up.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AdamHart612:
Those temps are crazy. I'm streaming pandora and surfing the web and sitting at 84.2F. In the month and a half or so of ownership I haven't seen it over 105F
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gwtx2:
does get hot

Ran navigation today and it does get hot, especially with the screen on. I have a gel cover and took that off for better airflow. My original droid also got hot and i would run navigation for several hours. Never fried the phone. You have a years warranty.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gwtx2:
I ran a little test while using Navigation, screen on, no protective case on. This is with a freshly booted phone, so no other apps running. Data is cpu temps using Temp+CPU Pro app.

Not charging: 102 deg. F

Charging: 112 deg. F

Charging and with silicon case on : 115 deg. F

I would think these temps are well acceptable. If your phone approaches 125-130 deg. f, then I would begin to worry. Surely, there is some overheat mechanism in place??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pukemon:
probably over 140 or 150 is reason to start worry. i think some people are laughing at those temps with all the overclocking, gpu running, and whatever else can be thrown at the phone. my phone got hot watching a netflix over mhl. that was the only time i was concerned about heat. 2 hours of it. nothing comes close to how hot it was then. i definitely would not have wanted to make a phone call with how hot it was then.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wallendiaz:
I have the GSM version Unlocked factory, Build Number - ITL41, Android version 4.0.1 and just play dead space right now for 35 minutes and the phone does not pass the 113 Fahrenheit. I love this phone:D:D

Mine gets to 118. I used to worry about on my charge. I had it the day it came out and ran it hot like that a bit and never had an issue with it. The only catch is li-on battery's worst enemy is heat. So i yry not to do it for more then an hour. Also if its unplugged it won't get has hot.

Could be why they underclocked the chip due to heat issues. I wouldn't mind underclocking a little further to reduce more heat and extend battery even further.

Yesterday, I had a slight burning sensation from my left pocket where gnex was. No background services were running. I wasn't downloading anything. I was in a 4G zone with 4G on. But, I never expected phone to get hot on a standby just because 4G was on....without even doing anything.

I turned it on/off but same thing after couple hours.. LOL
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alias3800:
It was probably syncing something, check background processes or accounts.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] charlescom:
Just 2 of my e-mails were on sync, and i didn't get any new e-mails during those times. My background apps are exactly same as stock. I only have 5 apps installed that doesn't even run in the background. LOL

I think it was just 4G signal switch that was being used and was getting hot here and there.. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xXJay_RXx:
Mines happens when I stream Google Music
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] versd:
i think we underestimate the operating temps of these chips. The only reason there is a temperature sensor on the chip is to activate an automatic high temp shut down to protect the chip. From that point of view, you can assume they set the value for high temp shut down to be below the temperature at which permanent chip damage occurs (otherwise why bother right?).

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] azzurrony:
So, my wifi signal near my router is at best -48db. Not sure if that is normal or not. The wifi seems capped at 65mbps at best...which should be enough but we all know it isn't.

My problem is that I can't stream large HD files from my server. I'm not talking about transcoding them. On my laptops, I can easily stream and play any HD file. The Prime is choking on them because of wifi and network issues.

Is anyone streaming full HD (mkv or otherwise) to their prime from their network? I'm using Es file explorer to do so and Mx Video player to play the file.

PS..the files play fine if put on the internal hard drive of the Prime.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Essobie:
Try using plex. It worked for me with bdrips
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] azzurrony:
Thanks. Regarding Plex:

1. Can you install that on Windows Home Server Version 1? I'd hate to put it on my regular desktop since it would have to be awake the whole time (unless Plex wakes it up).

2. Plex transcodes right? How much reduction in quality are you getting for those bluray rips?

3. Do you know if Plex plays WTV (windows media center) files? I have a ton of Recorded TV on the server.

Thanks.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] MrGiggles:
I was able to do a 1080p Avatar bluray rip steam onto mxplayer

NO problem at all..
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BarryH_GEG:
I use Plex on my WHS (V1, not 2011) and it's changed my life. I use it to stream 2TB of MKV rips to my phone, tablet, and Google TVs. It transcodes brilliantly and steps video quality based on bandwidth available. It streams great to my tablet over a 3MB 3G connection. And you can access your content from any outside 3G or Wi-Fi connection. I can even stream over the ****ty GoGo connection on airplanes.

I don't know about WTV files. If it doesn't work with Plex, try PlayOn. PlayOn provides access to all audio and video files you have stored on your WHS. It also provides access to Hulu (better than the native app), Amazon VOD, Netflix, and a host of other online video channels. It too works remotely. Between Plex and Playon I only store content locally when I'm going to be on a long flight without Wi-Fi.

When you first set Plex up, read the instructions for renaming your files in to the format for them to be tagged. It's a pain in the ass but the end result is worth it. It adds cover art, descriptions, and, for TV series, sorts them by season and episode. Plex is one of the most underated pieces of s/w out there.

P.S. - What h/w is your WHS running on? It needs to be at least dual-core.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Erusman:
720p is working fine. 1080p I am still having problems with it.

(performs the same as my original TF).

Not sure what is going on here. Using Estrongs File browswer to browse

to Windows 7 PC. Hooked of course 100mbit lan cable to my Netgear

Wireless N 300mb. Pulling 1080p .mkvs 6 to 8GB rips.. I get stuttering

in Diceplayer, Mxplayer. Right from the start.

Tablet on Normal performance setting. Like 15 feet from my router.

I tried different compression settings in the players.

Those that are having flawless 1080p video what player are you using?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] MrGiggles:
I am using MXplayer with Upnplay streaming with PS3 Media server. no problems.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] azzurrony:
I have an HP Ex487 so I only have an Intel Celeron 2ghz. Probably won't handle Plex.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] azzurrony:
I don't think its the video player. Mxplayer plays those files fine locally. I just don't think the Prime's wifi can stream a full HD file directly from the server.

I'm using a Netgear WNDR3300 router with 2.4ghz at 270mbps. The Prime reads that connection at a max of 65mbps. The result is that high def video will stutter over that connection.

Not sure how you guys are getting 1080p to play unless you transcode it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] e.mote:
>Hooked of course 100mbit lan cable to my Netgear Wireless N 300mb.

The 300Mb/s is the theoretical link rate, not actual bandwidth. Do a big file copy with ES. Then calc filesize / xfer_time * 8 bit/byte = actual avg bandwidth in Mbit/s.

Video content has highly variable bandwidth needs. Per the graph below, this particular 1080p Avatar clip's video requires 18.6Mb/s on avg, 32.5Mb/s at peak. Add bandwidth for each audio track (DTS=1.5Mb/s, normal AC3=0.64Mb/s). Does your actual avg bandwidth at least equal the clip's total avg bandwidth use?

Wifi also has drop-outs, not to mention it's a shared resource. Rule-of-thumb is to take your video's avg bandwidth use x 3 (to account for drop-outs and bit spikes) and compare it to the connection's bandwidth, in determining the wifi connection's viability for HD streaming.

For the typical wifi setup, 720p is usually OK, assuming the user isn't sharing the wifi. 1080p is usually not OK. That's why there is a proliferation of proprietary wireless HD equipment on the market.

Streaming, as some mentioned, has its strengths. Its weaknesses are that it requires a beefy PC on the server end to do real-time transcoding, its video quality is lowered, and seeking is problematic. But for some situations, it may be a good choice.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Erusman:
Hey thanks for the info. I take it this is why airvideo with airserver is working so well on the IPAD2.

Keeps the bit rate lower and does all the work on the PC. I guess I would need something similar on PC

like airserver to stream videos to the Prime.

Laptop is fine. I have no problems streaming same 1080p to it. More powerful.

Only tablet I have found that will handle it. Was the Samsung S7 Windows 7

tablet powered by I5 processor. That thing I was using Klite mplayer and

streaming 1080p to it without any hiccups. Of course it only has about 5 hours

of battery life, and costs $1100.00
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jim_0068:
I used to do some live streaming golf video lessons through a HD video camera. I found that the most important thing to get a flawless video stream was CPU power. Regardless of the speed of my connection and at that time it was sprint 3g or comcast cable connection I had to have my core 2 duo on high performance to get a good stream.

So in short, I found that the #1 requirement for good streaming was CPU power followed by connection speed.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] RussianMenace:
Looks more like an issue with encoding of the file that a network/hardware limitation. It probably was encoded using some wonky parameters (especially if you pulled it from the internet,who knows how they encoded it) that do not comply to a standard that the prime is looking for, so it's forced to be software decoded which the Prime doesn't have enough muscle for, at least not at 1080p.

Try re-encode from the DVD/BR using handbreak using one of the presets and see if it works.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] azzurrony:
The problem is that the Prime has plenty of CPU to play the 1080p files natively.

So, when it chokes playing the 1080p files over wifi from the network (while my laptops play them flawlessly), that tells me that there is something wrong with the Prime's wifi.

I believe the problem lies in the fact that there is some sort of cap in Android which keeps max throughput capped at 65mbps. I've never seen it higher than that. My laptops on that same connection get up to 270mbps.

There is no margin for error in the Prime's wifi signal. Thus, 1080p videos over the network (not transcoded) struggle. Wish there was a way to unlock the full wifi capability of that chip.

Any ideas?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] e.mote:
@OP

I'm guessing you're not a numbers guy, else you would've read my post which says there's no way on God's green earth you're gonna get 270 or even 65Mbs on the Prime. That's OK. I got lots of practice in making stuff simple for non-techie peeps (my parents).

The table below is from the Prime's FCC RF test report (here)

See the Antenna Type where it says "PIFA Antenna with gain 0.4 dBi"? That's your (and everybody else's) problem. The typical rubberduckie antenna has a gain of 2 dBi. Your laptop's built-in diversity antenna is probably 3-5 dBi. Per the bigger-is-better maxim, any mobile device's reception ain't gonna be all that great. BTW, dBi is a log measure, but you get the idea. Small antenna = sucky reception.

Mobile devices suck for wifi reception because of their small antennae. That's just the way it is. It won't improve until tabs can accept external (USB) wifi receivers with big honking antenna, like this one (that's a 12 dBi ant BTW):

TL;DR: Forget 1080p over wifi. Get a streamer.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] RussianMenace:
It's if it's not encoded to standard then it's forced into software decoding which the Prime does NOT have the muscle to do. Especially if it's a high bitrate encode. Has nothing to do your Wifi.

A full bitrate blurry is on average is 25Mbps... So if your prime is capable of pushing 65 Mbps network is not an issue.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] RussianMenace:
You could also try copy the file you're tying to stream to Prime and see if it will play smooth. If it does then you know for sure it's a network limitation.
