[HTC Rezound] jasoncd:
Thanks for the feedback guys. This was a big purchase for me, so I did a ton a research. I really went from GN all the way, to loving the Rezound and respecting the GN for what it is. It's just too flawed to be the game changer I thought it would be.

You hit it with the status bar comment. The blue icons of ICS might not be for everyone, but they're a damn sight better than what HTC/GB gives us. They're just...overblown? Comical? Meh, I don't know, it's fine just a little more attention to detail here could have helped push the Rezound up in reviewers minds imo.

Thanks man! You are correct, all of the numbers I posted were with the Rezounds extended battery. I almost thought your question could be answered with 'No way, they perform the same!'. Which is what I've been reading.

But I decided to take a slow walk around the house with both the extended and standard batteries in. This included going in bathrooms, closets, the garage, etc. Basically every part of my house.

The extended battery was between -85 and -95 db. The living room was the worst at -95. I changed out for the standard battery, and right off the numbers were a little better. It was -81 to -90. What's funny is with the extended battery the garage was a solid -90. Every part of it. With the standard, it was the same solid number but -85 instead of -90.

I will note that when I put the standard cover back on, there was very very little creak to it. It fit very flush. My extended battery cover have a fairly large creak on one side. Maybe it's not making the best contact? Or maybe it's just not as good?

I might order a new extended cover from HTCpedia and see if that fits any better, and if it has an impact compared to the one I have now.
[HTC Rezound] Blue Biker:
Sigh, I was afraid you were going to come up with results like that. I've been chasing this down here in XDA (and also in AF) with several people claiming plenty of antenna material on the extended cover, just that it's covered up instead of visibly copper on the standard cover. They probably are correct, but it also seems to be true that there is some level of signal sacrificed by the extended cover.

So will I accept a 5dB signal loss to achieve 70% more battery? Going from an excellent connection to very good? It feels dumb to admit, but my answer's probably yes.

Thanks again for all of your legwork and analysis. I was also obsessively following the GNex for many months and only hopped on the Rez at the last minute. Hope I can share what I've learned as well.

BTW, creaking covers seems to be common w/Rezounds (although not mine), so others may have suggestions for how to reduce it.
[HTC Rezound] clemarr:
Both my original and extended battery cover creaks pretty bad. HTC sent me a new back cover and it didn't change a thing. The only way I found to reduce it was fold a piece of paper a couple of times and lay in on the battery before you put the cover on it. It does not completely get rid of it but it did reduce it.
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
yeah, the creaky battery door definitely sucks. mine just started creeking more on the left side from taking the back cover off a lot, but with a TPU, i don't notice it that much. oh well; i should try to complain to get another door out of them lol
[HTC Rezound] dejahboi:
Thanks for this GREAT review. It really solidifies my decision on whether to let my Rezound go for Gnex.

[TouchPad General] wmjt22:
I just performed an install of cm7 a3.5 on a brand new touchpad and have run into a problem with gtalk. Gtalk shows everyone as offline after a short period of time and logging out and back in doesnt always solve the issue.

I wasnt able to find much searching on this topic. Does anyone else have similar problems or ideas for a fix?

Thanks!
[TouchPad General] Leoisright:
Check your time. If its off it will kick you off the servers.
[TouchPad General] wmjt22:
I have the time set correctly. If this isnt a cm7 problem in general should I wipe and reload it? If so, what steps would be necessary to do so?
[TouchPad General] thekillingtree:
i hate using gtalk on the touchpad. the gtalk apps are just really buggy, imo. even on other phones i've had they've always had issues. if you really want the chatting ability just download any other messenger that supports gtalk.
[TouchPad General] wmjt22:
I like the app and I dont like the extra junk in other messengers. I may just have to live with that though since noone else seems to have this problem.
[TouchPad General] thekillingtree:
i have that issue. also there's an issue when i log out where it doesn't really log me out or close the app.

i keep holding out hope that the ICS version will fix my complaints.

I haven't run across this issue yet and I use gtalk on a regular basis. possible that it's because I'm using the gapps package with new gtalk? I suppose it wouldn't hurt to give it a try.

I've been impressed with LG lately. Just the other day I discovered the LG Nitro on AT&T network and found out it has some amazing hardware specs. The display is an AH-IPS LCD with 720 x 1280 resolution! Pixel density is 326 ppi! The form factor is beautiful and the screen is 4.5".

Then today, my nephew shows me his new LG Marquee. I was so impressed with its display and style. Such a beautiful phone.

[General Topics] Theonew:
I managed to get my hands on one and it was brilliant. I never really ever went to LG because of their status but I was blown away with the G2x. Some people say that it can go against the Galaxy SII... and win :eek: (maybe not hardware-wise, but it can put up a fight).
[General Topics] MartyLK:
Nice! Lends credibility to the Nitro. I'm wanting a Nitro and plan to acquire one when my upgrade it due. Unless there is a better LG at that time. I can't see one getting much better than the Nitro other than style. Not that the Nitro is bad, it isn't. The Nitro is gorgeous. But there's always room for improvement on any design.

[General Topics] vnvman:
Honestly i can't really trust LG (talking about phones): high end LG phones feel even cheaper than Samsung ones, and the ui is always obscene. I'm kinda fine with low end ones tho, they're generally a good bang for the buck. I can't see myself buying a Samsung phone in the future because the GS2 seems to be a big let down to me in terms of durability. LG is basically a cheaper Samsung, so go figure...

My next phone will most likely be Nokia or HTC: hopefully HTC will go the way of the Titan and make decently assembled phones and Nokia will hype WP7 a little bit more, that's all i need right now. Fingers crossed for 2012...
[General Topics] MartyLK:
I can't agree with that. We have an expensive LG frig and it is the worst frig we've ever had the displeasure of owning. The ice maker is as loud as a 747...crunch, munch, grrrraggle, grrrrangle...and it frequently clogs up with frost. That's a sad thing for such an expensive machine.

Their TVs have one of the highest fault rates.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] blackinjun:
Tomorrow a whole slew of us will be receiving our Primes, this is no longer conjecture since UPS has now started receiving our thingys. With all the hoopla it is now time to turn our attention to development or to helping developers.

I do not have the answers here but I would suggest that as many of us as possible hold off on connecting to WIFI and start hanging in the development thread to look for developers requests to help with root.

We have all (the older ones) had fun posting in the general section and flaming the young'uns but it's now time for serious business.

For the new people (anyone who rooted anything for the first time less than a year ago) you are welcome to come also but remember the development section is not a question area, a random thoughts area, a first impression area or anything else like that. If I remember correctly the first sticky is if you did not develop it don't post there.

According to a post in the dev forum, the BB orders come with non rootable firmware.

New update is not rootable we need a work around because razorclaw is useless to us
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Lock-N-Load:
funny the OP talking about the "new guys" & root didn't even know root was busted after the last update :-)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] blackinjun:
Yes, new guys and root, and yes I am familiar with the situation. The point is we have a lot of pointless threads here and it wont help to take that to development.

Take a look at the keeping root section in development. If you happen to get an older (before 20111122 version) you may be able to root with razerclaw and if we can find out where the update is cached once hooked to wifi we can pull it and possibly work from there.

Now according to Android Root it still may be a problem because they have increased the decryption by making the blobs signature checked which means no adding to a blob for NVFlash.

I took the time to mention these things instead of my normal snide remark to remind you all that the goal from this point is to help to get root.

Also before someone else mentions it I do not develop I just make roms for personal use. When I say we I mean we helping the real developers, like Gnufabio, Roach, kracked, blades, clemsyn et al

I've got myself an Ainol Novo 7 Basic, which came with Android 3.2

I rooted it and still was not able to download apk files directly, or sideload. Apparently the apps I want aren't compatible with 3.2 so what I'm hoping will work is going to Froyo, which is what I have on my rooted Captivate.

Recently I've been trying different NAND roms for my EU HD2. I've tried a number of those like below.

- TyphooN CyanogenMod 7

- Sensation XL Stk S3.5[2.3.5]v1.3

- RCMix3D Runny v4.0.2 [Official Runny Sense 3.5]

Only those without Sense 3.5 has higher fps. I don't think that's something to do with the hardware itself. Any idea? :confused:

Regards,

thardaway
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] scariola:
Your trying to run something sense 3.5 that wasn't designed for our hardware. It will lag, seeing as sense is most power hungry. I mean 100mb of free ram, with cm7 I have 290mb free ram.

You'd be better off with cm7 or a sense 2.1.

Might try some other camcorder apps in market to see if it lags the same.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] kylew1212:
Sense builds require much more cpu and memory to run. The more power needed to run the system means the less power something with less priority will get. I am not a developer, but I'm quite sure thats the problem. With nonsense builds you have much more cpu and memory to use on the camcorder.

Hope this helps.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] thardaway:
Thank you both! Yeah and I got it now. Plus the reason of power consumption, I am now back to CM7 only which works like a charm.

After all, it is still worth a trial on different NAND ROMs. I appreciated all their efforts and bring in so much fun for me (and hopefully for others).

My next attempt will be on MIUI builds, seems like performance is okay. Any idea?

Just got a new class 10, 32gb sd card. What I would like to know is if there is a recommended 'process' to swap out my existing sd card?

When I copied the contents of my old sd card to my pc (win7x64) using standard copy/paste, I got an error on a few folders that the path was too long to paste. I know windows has limitations, so I'm going to mount both sd cards and just copy from the old to the new directly using robocopy.

Will there be any other issues due to media serial number or anything like that for apps that were installed to the sd, or am I over analyizing this?

The paths should not have changed from one card to the other. Since your source did not gawk at the long path the destination should not also...unless u grabbed the parent or pasted into a child or something. That said I know you nand and use tb. I would grab the current backups, images, whatever else u want and eikther nand or tb what daata was sd stored that you want back. Just my opinion.

The other thing is I would format the card in the phone first.

Yea, there were quite a few 'res' folders deep inside a google.books subdirectory that exceeded windows ability of copying. Don't use so I'm just going to clear data on the books app. Will hang on to old sd card before formatting and reusing somewhere else.

As long as the card is formatted, can't you just copy the contents of the sd card from your PC back to the card (assuming you copied your SD card to the PC)?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BillyBob3:
The issue is that windows has a limitation of 256 characters to use when copying files, which includes the full path from the root of the drive. Certain things work while others will not. Full copy in explorer is one of those things that does not.

So, copying my sd TO MY PC fails at a certain point. What did get copied will copy fine going TO THE SD CARD as there will not be a path/filename length issue at this point.

I tried the below (e is old sd, f is new) but still did not pick up the deep files. Didn't try robocopy.

xcopy e:\*.* f:\ /e /c /h /r

In my case, I did not care about anything in this directory, but others may. Just a heads up...

Even with rooted stock you can receive updates, its just the custom ROMs that won't receive it (like Lightspeed). If you go into settings, about tablet it should tell you what you are running. If it is one of the versions listed in that thread you should be good to go. Also make sure you aren't rooted and that CWM is no longer there.
