[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] R23PO:
Im interested in seeing what small helpful features everyone is finding buried in HC. Im also making sure there isn't any settings I'm not aware of that could be making my experience with HC even better. This may be helpful to many of us who just recently became acquainted to View 4G through numerous internet fire-sales.

I have 2 helpful tips, though they are small. I don't think these are specific to HC, but i think they help.

1. There is a slight screen animation when you exit an app and return to the home screen. It occurs on pretty much every screen change, its like its growing/expanding. Anyway this animation mixed with straining to see the smaller app icon text and smaller widgets of HC may make you nauseous after seeing it over and over again. Just go to Settings/Screen/Animation and set it to no animations. My stock weather widget still does its cool full screen animations, so i don't think i'm missing out on any good animations by changing this setting.

2. For better battery life:

a. use airplane mode.

b. use a wifi widget for quick, convenient on/off toggle. If i mostly keep wifi off my tablet lasts forever for reading, drawing etc.

c. set your screen to timeout after 1 minute or less. Settings/Screen/Timeout

d. set the brightness to low. I keep mine as low as it goes and turn automatic off. Settings/Screen/Brightness

[Q] if you could just tap the wifi icon in the new hc soft status bar to toggle on/off without it taking u all the way to the settings menu that would be amazing- Am i missing something? If its going to hog screen space it should be a super convenient status bar equipped with this feature-

That's because hspl is installed from the radio screen.

Power down phone.

Press &hold volume down + end key

Your phone boots into tri color screen.

Now flash hspl.

I have written a step by step guide if you need more help.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jaztau:
@kylew1212...when I do that it starts with the tri color screen the the screen goes white and the mesage "loading......" comes up and stays like that forever....

Next thing I dont understand because maybe Im not that technical minded...what does it mean to " flash hspl" in normal english?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Marvlesz:
Only press volume down AND keep holding hit, and boot the device.

flash hspl means "double click on the HSPL4 package, run as admin, next, select 2.08 HSPL, next, next, wait, finish .... you are done and your phone will now reboot." :)

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nigeldg:
Depends entirely on your preference. The three main types of ROM are CM7, MIUI and Sense. Sense has the best eye candy and UI (in my opinion) but has low performance, CM7 is fast and stable, and I've never used MIUI cos I'm happy with CM7. However if you don't need gingerbread, Froyo with sense is brilliant.

Thanks...im strugeling to understand all the jargan...

Or you can download the following predefined recovery and install it via usb flasher in Magldr menu ..what does that mean i real English?

or this..Flash via recovery..?

where can the newbies go and learn al this jargan?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Marvlesz:
I'm not trying to be sarcastic, but it literally means: "boot MAGLDR , go to the option "USB Flasher", connect your phone to your pc and then run the file you downloaded earlier (the predefined recovery)."

Flash via recovery is: Boot MAGLDR, then choose AD Recovery, and then "install zip from sd" or something like that, pick your rom from the list, hit "yes", and wait for it to finish.

If you want to know what Recovery (a.k.a cwm or cwr or clockworkmod recovery) and MAGLDR are, you need to do a little bit hard reading over here.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] kylew1212:
Miui roms are good. However I don't know much about them. They text messaging is really nice though.

If your going to use ice cream sandwich you need to be using clk instead of magldr.. ICS (ice cream sandwich) is still beta, and magldr currently has more problems than clk.

If you don't understand how to use clk I've written a guide Here

Magldr is good, especially for other roms but clk is better for ics..

[Nokia Lumia 800] ChrisKringel:
Hey guys,

I've received a Lumia 800 a few days ago and noticed something odd about the display. Sometimes the whole content of the display is moved to the left, and the part that is now out of view is then located on the right side of the screen. I could not reproduce this problem. Since the phone is working perfectly great I don't really want to send it in for a problem that might be caused by software issues... Should I be worried about this problem?

To make it more clear, here is a quick mockup of this error:

Regards Chris
[Nokia Lumia 800] weetigo:
I've noticed this twice so far, it happens as fast as a blink, when the whole interface shifts then moves back to normal almost instantly. I'd expect it to be fixed in a software update.

Thanks for your answer. I was really surprised when this first happened. But since I'm not the only one with this problem I'll wait for an software update.

Have seen that too. I think this can be fixed with a FW update. How can we report that problem to Nokia?

I have also noticed the same thing, although it stays like that for less than a second. Hopefully a software update will fix it.

I've noticed this as well. I'm on the latest FW update (11451). As you other guys have said it's not that annoying and it goes away in less than a second so I will not take care of the problem unless it's solved with a future FW update.

ok, I have now noticed that this seems to become worse... Sometimes my display stays this way for several seconds... I just contacted the Nokia support team to check if I can get my device replaced, just to be safe...

And what did they say ?

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waywayGG:
Hello,

I want to install a new rom on my HD but failed to do so.

I got the DHD for free and at that time there was already a custom rom (android 2.2 goapk) on it. So I assume it is rooted, however checking root status with terminal emulator it says otherwise. Also all my applications that require root dont work because of permission error.

Questions:

shouldnt my HD already be rooted since there is a custom rom running on it?

Assuming its not, since all my applications that need root access wont work...

If I try to root it with visionary+ it doesnt even ask for superuser permission.

It just runs through, no error occuring, but when I check with terminal emulator "su" it says permission denied.

Does anyone know what the problem is?

Thanks in advance.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 105802:
have you considered downgrading and re-rooting ?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waywayGG:
downgrading went fine in a coulpe of mins.

could smoothly root etc. afterwards.

new rom running already.

Thanks for the advice!!! I was just not really sure what my problem was :D

Thanks for this myths debunked thread. I'd like to add one:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ericc191:
Good write up. Now what about the low volume issue? Is it widespread? GPS issue as well?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bleets:
i wouldnt call the volume being low a myth...it is rather low, but then i'm coming from a phone that has stereo speakers on the side of the phone rather than the back...where it sits therefore muffling the sound more from a low starting point :|
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jhuynh:
Exhibit A is not a good example cause you were on Wifi the whole time. A lot of people throughout the workday will not have access to wifi and wifi is known to have less battery drain on standby.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] voxigenboy:
I wonder if the low volume is hardware related at all. With past phones(that had Sense stock of course), anytime i'd try out an AOSP based ROM the volume was always noticeably quieter then on Sense. Devs would always attempt fixes but no matter what it wasnt the same. It makes me wonder how the volume would be on this phone if it had Sense.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kangxi:
I've gotten nearly the same drainage on mobile date which is why I mentioned the fact of being in a bad reception area will kill your battery. I can do another test on mobile data and post another shot.

I will do a screenshot of the GPS and post that, as I get rock solid GPS.

My phone is normally on vibrate (I don't like my phone making noises) so I really can't speak to that. When I do have the volume turn up, I haven't had any issues with it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kangxi:
Updated with GPS. Anyone is welcome to add other topics and I can add them.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crankerchick:
Your list is pretty spot on, but don't underestimate the "signal" problem (although I won't call it that henceforth). While I don't think there is a signal reporting problem, as you pointed out, there does seem to be lower performance out of this phone compared to some of the competition, specifically in areas of weaker signal in terms of maintaining a data connection and handing off between 3G/4G. That has been my experience.

Your assertions are in line with reported information from AnandTech, and I agree that some people's problem is a perceived problem due to "Signal Bar goggles" or ignorance to signal reading reporting between phones. But there are still legitimate concerns about data handoff between EV-DO/LTE as well as this phone's ability to hold signal in weaker areas. Those are real issues for real people. There are plenty of examples, myself in included, who see their Nexus fail to keep LTE where other phones do not, and fail to keep 3G where other phones do not. When I'm in a good signal area, my phone performs simlarly to HTC Rezound, Charge, Razr, Thunderbolt, and my old OG Droid. But put it in a fringe area, and the performance differences become more clear in both ability to hold the LTE or even 3G signal as well as data rates.

Maybe there's nothing "wrong" with the phone, it's just not as "good" at these things as some other phones (and that's certainly allowed), but just don't write it off yet as nothing wrong with it.

I've also seen my GPS on a few occasions have me somewhere miles away (even up to tens of miles away) from my actual location. When it's locating me 60 miles north of where I actually am, even with WiFi on, I'm calling shenanigans. I've had the phone for a 9 days and it's happened 3 times so far. Just something I'm keeping an eye on.

I'm not in the camp of people losing data completely for extended periods of time, and for those people, I would suggest a phone exchange. I think my device is behaving as designed, and there is just possibly some questionable performance issues compared to some other phones. For that reason, I'm keeping mine and being hopeful of updates addressing these concerns.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] b15love:
Uh the whole reception issue is a reality. It has nothing to do with reception bars etc. I have losr data connection numerous times and a few dropped calls in the los angeles and orange county area. And its ****ing frustrating.

The camera is meh. In many occasiosions its doesnt focus properly, so you get fuzzy pictures. Though the ipone4/4s and galaxy s2 devices are obviously better.

The gpu so far sucks. Its been underclocked, and ppl see lag in their live wallpapers, and especially in emu's like n64 and psx. Hopefully a good overclock will help this issue.

The battery is very lame, but i think that was a given because of 4g, i get some extra life by turning that off.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kangxi:
I never said the reception issue isn't real. The myth is that all devices suffer from this problem. My suggestion was that if you are having a bunch of problems that there might be a problem with your device.

Camera, I refer to the OP.

GPU, could be an issue with the high resolution and large screen. Probably will be optimized in the future. I'm running 4.0.3 and it's very smooth.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kangxi:
This post isn't to claim that there isn't anything wrong with the phone, just to have a peek at how a normal device should function. Sort of to give people a benchmark to compare theirs to.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] b15love:
I see. So the title " The Galaxy Nexus has horrible reception!" Is not a myth and is partially true
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kangxi:
No, the Galaxy Nexus does not have horrible reception. Some devices could have manufacturer defects that could lead to signal issues, software issues or a ton of different issues. But, by default, the Galaxy Nexus does not have reception issues. Maybe Samsung needs to work on their quality control and the manufacturing process, but that doesn't mean that every single device in the world has this issue. IE, mine doesn't. So saying the device has horrible reception would be false as this is not a true statement amongst all users. Which is why my suggestion was to seek help from the carrier, possibly a replacement.

I think somebody needs to call adam savage and jamie hyneman in on this one to be honest :P
