[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pdanders:
I got verizon to send me a new galaxy nexus and the problems seem to be gone. I think there must be a big batch of bad phones out there... poor QC on samsung's part is the only thing I can think of
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MountainX:
Very interesting. Thanks.

I asked the guys at my local Verizon store about swapping phones and they said it wouldn't help. I guess they are idiots, and it cost them a 2 year contract in this case.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pdanders:
I got my phone via verizon's website (which is way cheaper for renewing contract users anyways)

The phone support person was very nice and had no problems sending me a new phone.. and would have even sent me a different phone at no charge
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wardo5757:
I hope this issue gets fixed also. I'm in ft worth and returned my nexus for these signal issues. While sitting at home, the 3 other 4g devices in my house would hover around 90db and the nexus would be around 108 db. Needless to say that's to low to be reliable, and it wasn't at all. I think it either has antenna issues or they powered the chip down to save battery..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pdanders:
To everyone having the issue... try to make verizon give you a new phone. I'm somewhat convinced there is a large defective batch out there.

Of course I've only had my new phone for 12 hours.... but no data dropouts yet.. and I was getting them every 20-30 minutes before in the best case.. often much more often than that
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jfriend33:
How do you figure? I got my Gnex over a month ago for $149 out the door. There was a promo for chicago residents upgrading to a 4G device....

Edit to keep relevant to thread..

My Gnex has intermittent issues reverting back to 3g from wifi. Actually on my 3rd sim card since I had to switch back to an old phone when traveling. Kinda lame I have to travel with a spare sim and phone...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MountainX:
It would be great to hear from other users who have had the issue and then gotten a new phone that did not have the issue. If you are one of these users, please reply. Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JerleMinara:
The new 4.0.4 radios seem to help a lot. Y'all should give them a try
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jedil1c1ous:
I'm 4.0.4 now also. While I've never really had 4g-3g switching issues, besides seeing a lower signal, I seem to always get slower 3g download speeds than my wife's VZW iPhone 4. Last night on 3g at my house, she was consistently getting 1.5mbps downloads while I was 700-800kbps. Very annoying. I would like to stay in 3g more to preserve battery but most places I get around 300kbps on 3g. Not good.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ElectroM:
Verizon claims Galaxy Nexus LTE signal is fine, update still coming to change meter

I just knew Verizon and Samsung would pull this s**t. There is definitely a problem. I live in a very good 4G area in upstate SC, and have had huge problems. I am really glad I bought my Gnex at Costco. They have a kiosk in the store and I have stood there next to a Razr that was on display and was running (not just a display dummy model) and my Gnex would say no signal, retry while the Razr had 3 to 4 bars. Costco has replaced my phone 4 times, I am on #5 since Dec 15. The latest phone, which I got Wed 2/8, is much better than the previous ones. I just hope it stays this way. I don't know what the problem is, although I have read a lot of threads on several forums. I just know there is a problem. I will speculate there is a big batch of defective Gnex's on the market. I am glad Costco has the 90 day return policy.

I like this one https://market.android.com/details?id=com.colinmcdonough.android.torch

Super simple, light weight and works well on Note.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] undrwater:
I prefer the one in quick settings. Easy to get to and works well.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlCapone:
I don't think I have it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] undrwater:
"Quick Settings" is an app in the market. You can have it reside in the notification panel, and open it from there. The top right of the window shows a flashlight icon. That can be either configured for the LED light, or the screen.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zkyevolved:
Why don't you use the flashlight widget on the phone by default? It has 3 settings and it's really convenient. I use it all the time.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Astrum:
I never seen Flash light widget by default on Note. At least not on my Note, there isn't one in list of Widgets to add by default.

Or is it hidden somewhere?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beestee:
The one that came with my note is called 'Torch' in my widget list. But I am not using this widget anymore.

[HD2 General] jakobsebens:
Hi all,

Thank you for reading this.

I am fond of windows mobile, and i am really pleased with the os so far.

but, it's a bit slow. in want to ask you the following: Is the following thing possible?

I want to replace the hardware inside the HTC X7500 (logic board, CPU, RAM etc.) for the hardware inside the HTC HD2.

I expect that, because both of the devices got there own kitchen, the windows mobile flash won't be a problem. It would be just a matter of installing drivers.

But will the hardware fit? The x7500 screen, keyboard, joystick, and cameras to the logic board?

thank you very much for thinking about this question.

There will be people tell me, why dont you...

i thougth of this plan because i wanted an windows mobile device like the x7500 only fast.

thanks for helping.

[HD2 General] Marvlesz:
So ... you want to make a transformer ?

Make them two .. please :D.

No, seriously. Do you really want to combine two devices into one?
[HD2 General] carlosliang:
logic board, CPU, RAM etc. these things are expensive... not less than a whole phone.
[Kindle Fire General] namurt:
All I'm trying to do is use a custom dock background with Go Launcher EX. I'm rooted and have both the android market and gapps installed. I installed Go Launcher EX via the market.

Whenever I set a custom dock background via the Go Launcher preferences, it only stays put until I reboot. After a reboot, the background disappears and there's no background at all. The background I'm using is a PNG which i have located in /sdcard/theme/docks, permissions on the file according to Root Explorer are ---rwxr-x.

What gives here? Why do I have to reset it after every reboot?

EDIT: It's interesting to note that if I use the "GO Theme background" under Preferences->Visual settings->Backgrounds for my dock background, the theme image is persistent after any number of reboots.
[Kindle Fire General] b63:
it's only a shot in the dark but i think at reboot the system is starting go launcher. according to this the rights have to be rwxrwxr-x

or the sdcard is'nt mounted when it loads - then copy somewhere to system might help

never done this - just some ideas ...
[Kindle Fire General] namurt:
I'm unable to modify permissions of files in /sdcard. Also, I have custom dock icons that are located in /sdcard/theme/icons and they always stick around after a fresh reboot, so I'm not sure about the need to move my dock background PNG to /system. I currently only have apk's in /system.
[Kindle Fire General] b63:
the icons have the same permissions ?

maybe a bug in go launcher you just discovered !
[Kindle Fire General] namurt:
Yes, the icons have the same permissions.

Could it possibly be that I'm cropping the image? Anyone know the exact dimensions I would need to use to avoid cropping?
[Kindle Fire General] b63:
just looked at my kf - can't find the original images - does anyone know the location ?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] gmacev:
So I noticed, that the lower resolution you set on the video recorder, the darker the video output gets. On 720x480 and lower resolutions the recording in dark(er) areas becomes useless. Though when you set 1280x720 and contrast to -2, it becomes just a bit more usable. I'm using XKPH, and I'm wondering is this fixed in later versions? Or maybe someone could look into this and try to find a fix, or port an older version of the camera (it seems that there was no such problem in froyo).
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] SikanderKeynes:
Same problem here. No fix in later version xxkpq or no patch/mod else where. I tried camera.apk from xxkb3 but it didn't work. So for now we are struck with this buggy video recording. Froyo's recording was way better.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
ya many times I also faced this problem.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] shriom_manerker:
same here ! if u notice the fps limit is in from the latest versions of firmwares ! on kpe it works fine ! but when u go above kpe u'll experience that the video fps is min to 30 fps eaelier ths used to go down till 15 fps
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] sgsI9003:
Hoe to check the FPS of shot video?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] kanitkaplan:
I solved it !

I was using KPQ for 2 months. My camera was like that.

And today i found the solution accidentally.

For preparation:

* I made a factory reset.

* Restarted

* Turned off

* Open in CWM (Volume up + Power + Home)

* Wiped data and other caches

* Restarted and opened again in CWM.

* And wiped again. (Because there was some errors previous one)

Now this is the solutuon i think :

* I flashed KPE ( twice )

* After this i flashed KPH ( twice )

* Finally i flashed KPQ ( twice )

* Rooted

* Deodexed

* Flashed UC Kernel

Then it solved.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] shriom_manerker:
that seriously solved the issue for u man ? any1 tried this ??
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] bangalorerohan:
Umh?

I tried those..

Flashing and stuff.

Long back.

And, For your confirmation, I tried it today also :)

Did not work.

Infact, no difference at all.

i want to update to the .901 as i don't believe i am on it already(i just swapped someone for this phone yesterday & all i know is, before i rooted, i attempted to do an update and it said i'm up to date).

i got that 'bionic path saver'(which i'm also unsure on how to actual use properly) and see there's a command to apply an update for either the 893 or the 901 and i'm not sure what exactly i am on right now.

i don't want to just proceed with something and screw anything up as i have no warrenty.

thanks
[Motorola Droid Bionic] lrs421:
Settings > about phone > baseband version.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Bfitz26:
i thought it was system infomation cause that is the only thing that ends in .893 ??? now i am truly confused cause basesband ends in 05.15.01 that doesn't quite add up unless i am retarted..
[Motorola Droid Bionic] lrs421:
System version should contain information about the software version you're running; XT875, etc.

Baseband relates to the radio: CDMA_N_.03....

Most OTA's update the radio/baseband as well so once one changes as does the other.

Cochrar。 can you tell me how to capture the screen of TWRP?

[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] representingcochran:
you need to be plugged in to your computer while in TWRP and go into the tools folder of android sdk. Start the program called ddms. Once open click to highlight your device then click device in the top bar and click screen capture. You could also Google Android ddms for information.

I ordered this... http://www.ebay.com/itm/170731777597?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649 Its a 3 battery + solo battery charger combo, cost $15 no tax.. no shipping. Took about 2 weeks to get and every battery works flawlessly.

They all come with 66%charge. The charger even charges my stock battery. All batteries have a cut off switch built in like the original that doesn't allow overcharging. The charger has a led that is red when charging and blue when charged. I have not noticed any difference in battery life when I switch to another battery. At night I can charge one in my phone and one in my new charger. I take two with me and just leave em In my car or my e5 easy case. Never run out of battery, don't have to be plugged in constantly, I use my phone heavily and some days I need 3 full charges. Even if i use 3 batteries in one day, by the time i finish the 3rd the first is charged. I only ever have to charge 2 at night when I'm asleep. The next day I wake up with 4 fully charged (3 spare + 1 original) but iv never used all 4 in one day.

I have tried everything I can to get the batteries to fail, overclocking @ 1700 using them from 100%-0% without stop and even overclocking while plugged in. I cannot get the battery to fail.

Ill keep you updated if anything changes (I know even with the review some are skeptical) but for 2 weeks of heavy use, I use my note allll day Im a stay at home father/student, none of the batteries have failed.

I hope this was helpfull.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] mkoger:
False. They charge just fine. But, faster on the wall. Actually they charge faster on the wall than my original with supplied usb charger. Whoever made your girlfriend's phone might have mentioned that in the information though. Pays to read thoroughly. As I've said before. No problems. I cant even tell what battery I have in my phone, I should mark them... because they all work the same.

these batteries are not secure enough to be bought - the worst thing that could happen is they might explode. They are not cheap for nothing!! I've read a couple of articles about counterfeit battery catching fire/exploding and in my opinion, it's preferable to add some more cash and buy a genuine battery, than those fake ones. Better be safe than sorry...Just my 2cents...

I got the same batteries as OP and they work, but definitely don't have the same capacity as OEM. I'd guesstimate 60%-70% capacity. The cheapo white ones on Ebay are a little better than the blacks, but still definitely reduced capacity compared to OEM. Regardless, it's a great deal for the price.

Got the 3batteries and charger deal as well. No problems. My only complaint is the universal charger that came with it. It takes FOREVER to charge the batteries. I charged them faster just switching them in the phone. I'm sure there are better wall chargers out there though.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] DeKubus:
Not a good sign for Apple's famed quality if the stock battery died in 1,5 years (assuming she got her IPhone on release). After more than two years the battery in my good old i8910 is still running about 2-3 days with moderate usage.
