Hi,

Testing since a few days,downloaded from: http://androidaudiohacks.com/ .Credit to him :cool:

Good,but for me doesn't set on boot...:confused:,just that for me...

In any case the dev of volume+ have a Gnex :) :) :)

I always used volume+ since my Desire HD,HTC Sensation (on CM7 which come with Dsp Manager,but i have never seen any improvements,specially for ringtones/notifications).

I've posted a comparo with Dsp manager/Volume+ before the beta in a thread in that section...

You can always use some settings like the previous version: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1362335 ,work great for me...+ check "Speaker Modifications" and in Advanced Settings set also "Speaker Modifications",for both "Volume level" is not bad set to 8 with the above values :),also depend what you set in settings/sound...

I've not tested "Virtual Room Effect",the dev says it's not work...So i've not tested :D

Enjoy,thanks to Meltus (the dev),Since he has a Gnex i think Volume+ will be better :cool:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kshen1:
Link is dead ):
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
If it helps... (Some settings can be adjusted,like Volume Level):

Don't forget that:

Works great for me,ringtones and notifications are greatly improved :cool:,for me Dsp Manager never does not "allow" this (especially for improve notifications/ringtones)...

I hope i did not forget anything :rolleyes:

And let the dev improve the settings for his app,he has its Gnex since a few days...

:) :cool:

anyone else getting FC after installing when trying to enter the Music Effects screen in Sound Settings?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] netAdept:
Has anyone managed to mount a USB stick in the USB port of their dock?

Every stick that works in my original Transformer, is not recognised by my Prime. It is updated to ICS and I didn't think to check it worked before updating.

Possibly a bug in ICS, or maybe a problem with the dock? What do you think?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tedr108:
Mine worked fine before ICS and is still working fine after ICS. This may not bode well for your USB port being functional.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Duradas:
After I updated to ICS and connected the dock, usb, sd card slot and the mousepad was dead, too. After it stayed connected for about 10-20minutes, it suddenly worked.

I guess when you connect the dock for the first time after ICS is installed, a silent update is running for the dock as well. A notice would have been nice though, I started panicking as well...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] surroundedbytrees:
I just tried a USB stick via a USB adapter. It reads fine here
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] netAdept:
Thanks for all the replies, but false alarm folks!

Tried the old 'switch it off and on again' and the stick mounts properly. You'd think I would have tried that first wouldn't you? DOH :D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] murgo:
wait, so everytime i plug in my usb stick, i have to reboot the device?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sparkdroid:
Anybody else not able to mount a USB storage device in the dock unless they reboot with it plugged in?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sparkdroid:
I read somewhere that there is a way to mount USB storage without rebooting...

Go to settings > storage > and then look for your device and select mount.

I have found that only my larger USB sticks (32GB) tend to not automount when I insert them.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] almightywhacko:
NO, you should not have to reboot when you want to use a USB stick.

However with any computer-like object, if something isn't working correctly the first thing you should try is a reboot. Sometimes processes get tied up and stop working and a reboot will generally fix this.

FYI, USB sticks and USB external hard drives (I have a 500GB Seagate) work just fine through the Transformer's keyboard dock.

Last week I flashed andorid on my xperia x1i but it has to much bugs :(

Because of that I wanted "flashback" the Windows mobile ROM on the xperia but I have some problems :mad:

First of all i saved the LK Bootload 13.11.11, the KOVSIMG.NBH and this ROM: Xperia X1 R3AA007 in my Micro SD Card. I started the my handy and the screen was white and there were standing ,,loading,, (in blue colour) I wated for hours x/ but it allways keeps screaming ,,loading,, :( Then i started the handy in boot-mode but the white screen appears again -.-

I desided to eject the SD Card > restart my handy > and started the boot-mode

then i tried to do a

task29

but everytime it fails >error 262< :(

I have read somewherer that I have to do a HSPL but the same error appears -.- Please help me to flash windows mobile on my x1i cause nothing works even the Android i flashed last week no longer works

Auf der Seite steht dass ich HSPL machen muss aber das geht nicht x) Immer Error 262 :(
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neoofoox:
Yes, but when already have installed the Android ROM you allready have HardSPL or have you made a SoftSPL?

The forum language is english, so you can write it in english and german, maybe other people have the same problem.

___

Ja, aber wenn du das Android ROM schon geflasht hast musst du ja vorher schon HardSPL gemacht haben, wenn du SoftSPL gemacht hast müsstest du das halt wiederholen, weils nach dem flashen nicht mehr vorhanden ist.

Schreibe das nächste mal in beiden Sprachen für andere oder schreibe eine PM ;) soll ja auch für andere User nützlich sein.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rachad10:
I've already made a HSPL (not a SoftSPL) there is standing in the boot-mode that I have SPL-0.72.0000

_____________________

Ich habe schon einen HSPL gemacht !! (WO ich Android geflasht habe). Im Boot-Mode steht dass ich SPL-0.72.0000 habe.

No one there who can help ?? :S
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] caliban2:
Kinda strange when old x1-threads pop up... ^^

Listen, "SPL 0.72.0000" means you have stock-spl. Hard-spl is "0.72.Olinex". That's why it doesn't work.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rachad10:
Ohhh :O

First, thanks for your answer :)

What do I have to do now ? I tried to do a Hard-spl but it fails everytime whit error 262 :(
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] caliban2:
You have to flash it via usb-method, sd-method only works if you already have hardspl. (0.72 -> 0.78)

For that to work you need your PC recognize the x1 in bootloader-mode (drivers).
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rachad10:
Do I need the SD Card in my x1 ? Or do I have to get it out ?

#Edit: There is no SD Card in my x1. I started KovskyAdvancedRUU > pressed Regular RUU (Task 28) - (for flashing NBH files)

then it started flashing and then at 10% it stoped → Error 262 :/

Task 29 had the same error but it stopped at 0% :S

#Edit: After the 3th try, it was succesful :D

Thanks for helping me :D
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] caliban2:
Why should that matter???

Just make sure you have no "kovsimg.nbh" on your sd if it's in. sd always comes before USB in bootloader.

[Epic 4G General] zeppelin481:
Yup, I said it. Nothing. Nada. Zip. Well, deleting the .bin file does do something...it resets the battery stats. Wanna know what else resets the stats?? Charging your phone to 100%. So, whatever benefit you saw from deleting the .bin was a placebo effect. Don't get me wrong, deleting it won't hurt anything. But it doesn't help anything either, and it certainly doesn't calibrate your battery. The only thing that file contains are stats, such as:

1. info about wakelocks

2. info about partial wakelocks

3. info about screen on time

4. info about screen brightness

I'm tempted to get into how lithium ion cells work, but that is a boring subject. I will say that li-ion cells don't have a memory to them, so there really isn't a "calibration" process. I will say that if you have piss poor battery life, you should consider the following:

1. An application/process that isn't allowing the phone to sleep correctly (keeping this general)

2. Any SamSprint firmware or derivative thereof

3. Knock it off with the overclocking. If you wanna screw with frequency tables and voltages, or let someone else do it and flash their kernel, be my guest. But don't ***** about your battery life if you do

4. YOUR BATTERY!!!!

Wanna know how I fixed the ****ty battery life on my girlfriend's Epic? I bought her a new battery :) I nice new shiny Epic Touch 4g battery with 20% more capacity and BAM, 2 days of battery life easily instead of 4-5 hours.

Seriously though, so many things affect not only battery life, but battery lifespan e.g. age (many users have had this phone for 1.5 years), # of charge/discharge cycles, excessive heat or cold (I bet a lot of people keep their phone in their pocket or a purse, huh?), etc. And while there may be quality control standards in the battery manufacturing process, not all batteries are equal and it's very possible that a battery was well below its stated capacity even when it was brand new.

Anyway, I'm tired and I need a coffee. I'm interested to hear others chime in and add to the discussion. Flame on! jk :p

This is what I've been saying all along. You put a battery in. You charge it. End of story.

All these people wasting literally hours upon hours on "calibrating" their battery are tools who should not be members of a development forum.

[Epic 4G General] darkierawr:
Many people will argue that wiping battery stats is actually WORSE for battery life while using the same battery. After cycling perhaps. I think switching batteries requires a stat wipe though.
[Epic 4G General] zeppelin481:
You're probably right. And I technically had 2 cups today, just not my usual gallon! I hope a mod moves it soon because I feel like a huge tool now...
[Epic 4G General] flastnoles11:
Lol! Hey at least it wasn't a completely idiotic thread like some of the people post in developement so you get at least 1 point for that... on topic... completely agree anybody that sees better battery life after Calibrating their battery just didn't use their phone as much after doing so... now maybe everybody will quit telling the people with bad battery life to calibrate and it will fix their issues...
[Epic 4G General] MДЯCЦSДИT:
Here we go...

Wiping battery stats has NOTHING to do with battery 'life'. It does however effect time from a full charge if charged from the epic itself.

What the file that is removed does it tell android what the battery level is for logging and status info. When something changes like the battery strength (age) or life change from the rom/kernel/tweaks then you need to delete that file or else it will assume the older setup is used as a norm. Android uses the data to tell the battery to stop charging at a level of 95ish% and also to power down at 5ish%. If these values are incorrect the phone won't keep a charge as log or power off earlier.
[Epic 4G General] ksmullins88:
Lmao, I hope they leave it in here just because ;)
[Epic 4G General] ksmullins88:
But this is right... sometimes if you don't clear your battery stats your phone still thinks you have, for example, say 75%, when you really have something less, like 50%. Thus when you charge it, it will think its charging to 100 from 75 rather than from 50. Leaving you 25% less battery or whatever and your phone will seem like its dying faster. Only because you haven't "fully" charged the battery. So in some cases, calibrating the battery by removing the file is neccessary.

Next time someone complains about battery life I'm gonna tell em to order an epic touch battery, its really the only way
[Epic 4G General] troyolson92:
Battery stats do nothing... I never charge my battery. I swap out with charged batteries. You can NOT make your power on time longer with battery stats!!! I've proved that with swapper batteries versus charging and wiping stats... It's a myth only because there is a file which tracks status. That file is rewritten to and reset everytime I swap batteries.

IT'S A MYTH!!!
[Epic 4G General] zeppelin481:
This. The battery stats contain nothing about your battery percentage. Those who think that are misinformed.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
I thought the percentage is directly related to the voltage left on the battery. So how could any stats affect that?
[Epic 4G General] zeppelin481:
Look out! Here comes the Peanut Gallery! But seriously, my point was that most people don't stop and think for even a second that their battery might be the problem. If you have a 2 year old battery that you've put through the ringer and it you are getting ****ty battery life, you should quit being a cheap ass and buy a new battery. The Epic Touch battery is $18 on Amazon and a 20% increase in capacity. Kind of a no brainer. Unless you're a cheap ass. Or slow. Or you think that wiping a binary file will magically fix it. Or you're a cheap ass.
[Epic 4G General] murso74:
Looks like someone read Engadget today
[Epic 4G General] zeppelin481:
I thought Engadget was for iPhone fanboys :p And no, I didn't read Engadget. Someone else posted a link in this thread about another article/post that I saw for the first time. Actually, I haven't done the wipe battery stats thing since the T-Mobile G1 days when I learned what the .bin file actually did/contained. The option to wipe stats in Clockwork actually came from the AmonRa recovery which preceded that. My original post was me actually touching on 3 things: battery stats, fix permissions, and wiping 3x. I really get a kick out of the misinformed, ritualistic stuff that takes place in the Epic 4g forums specifically. My original post was lost when the session had expired, and I didn't feel like rewriting about all 3 topics. I'll save that for another day :)
[Epic 4G General] zeppelin481:
Sorry, the Android OS uses that file for no such task. Nothing about battery level or voltage is contained within the stats. If that were true, you would have to wipe the stats every time you swapped batteries. If you swap a dead battery for a fully charged battery, does your phone think it's dead? Nope, it sees a charged battery. And again, Android wipes that file at every full charge all on its own. No need to clear the stats in a custom recovery. What percentage of Android users even have a rooted phone with a custom recovery and even know that file exists?
[Epic 4G General] austin420:
I'm a battery swapper. All day. Never wipe. Well, except my ass.

[Epic 4G General] AmericanJedi001:
Ah, the classic 3x wipe!

To all you folks here who are posting stuff that directly contradicts what Dianne Hackborn wrote: ummm, I'll take the word of an Android software engineer over word-of-mouth BS any day of the week. Even if she is "just a woman." :rolleyes: I mean, she works with the team that built Android. Hell, she might've written the battery-related code! I'd say she's in a much better position to know than any of the rest of us. Unless you happen to be an Android engineer also. ;)
[Epic 4G General] zeppelin481:
May I suggest you fix permissions after you "calibrate" your battery then?
[Epic 4G General] MДЯCЦSДИT:
And wipe 36.5x :)
[Epic 4G General] dchawk81:
Yeah wiping does nothing. I still do it when I flash a new ROM though. Nervous tick I guess.

Sent from my hoe. Forgive the typoes; it's an Epic.
[Epic 4G General] paullueders223:
Yeah I find wiping my stats reduces battery life initially since it has no reference point and then just sets it back to normal after a discharge cycle, no real improvement other than peace of mind

Sent from my Epic with CyanogenMod 7.2
[Epic 4G General] wispoffates:
Fine ruin the placebo what will we tell everyone now...
[Epic 4G General] rando991:
Doesn't it make your battery indicator bar more approximate the actual %? I thought that was all it did anyway (e.g. I would show 50% battery remaining but the bar looked to be at 65 or 70ish). Wiping or calibration after it being full would bring it back to a closer approximation? I guess that is not the case.
[Epic 4G General] nom303:
Its best to wipe before flushing
[Epic 4G General] johnbarry3434:
No effect on battery life

Quote from Diane Hackborn (Google Engineer):

AKA no effect on battery life or battery reporting (percentage) level.
[Epic 4G General] rando991:
well I guess I can delete my Battery Calibration app now.
[Epic 4G General] vwags:
There was a procedure posted that was when the battery was below 5% to remove the battery while hooked up to a charger leaving it out for 1 minute. When you put the battery back in the charge percentage would increase and the belief was that was reserve built in that you were able to get back. Is that placebo too?
[Epic 4G General] zeppelin481:
Pretty much, unless it contains some other useful info like voltage.

Never heard of that procedure, and it honestly doesn't make much sense. Remember that the battery % is just an rough estimation of remaining battery life based off of the current voltage. I think the "1% mod" was one of the worst things to happen to this forum. Don't get me wrong, it looks cool in the status bar (or lockscreen even) but now people obsess over it because it's right in front of them. I keep it simple on my Glacier: battery is either green,yellow, or red. Red means I need to find a charger.
[Epic 4G General] ds1gig:
Always knew this was a waste of time
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
So what about the idea of discharging a new battery all the way before fully recharging? Is that not needed either?
[Epic 4G General] ac16313:
This disproves that so id guess not since "batteries have no memory".
[Epic 4G General] zeppelin481:
With a new battery, sure. It is NOT good to completely discharge a lithium ion battery on a regular basis, though. Try not to let your battery get below 30% or so, and try to charge it often. Also, I only try to put it on the charger during those times where I am able to let it charge to 100%
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] petez1:
Hi

My Desire was working fine until I plugged it in to a USB connector in a friend's car to charge it with my Bluetooth activated. Since then my Bluetooth has worked intermittently (switches on sometimes, others not - just random).

Everything else still works fine (WiFi, GPS, 3G) and I have done both a soft reset and Hard Factory Reset with no improvement - any suggestions ?

Thanks

[Galaxy S II General] tietherope:
As posted on Android Central, a Google engineer has explained exactly what the batterystats.bin file contains:

"This file is used to maintain, across reboots, low-level data about the kinds of operations the device and your apps are doing between battery changes. That is, it is solely used to compute the blame for battery usage shown in the "Battery Use" UI in settings.

That is, it has deeply significant things like "app X held a wake lock for 2 minutes" and "the screen was on at 60% brightness for 10 minutes."

It has no impact on the current battery level shown to you.

It has no impact on your battery life.

Deleting it is not going to do anything to make your more device more fantastic and wonderful... well, unless you have some deep hatred for seeing anything shown in the battery usage UI. And anyway, it is reset every time you unplug from power with a relatively full charge (thus why the battery usage UI data resets at that point), so this would be a much easier way to make it go away."

So whats the function for?

For us to imagine that i makes a difference?
[Galaxy S II General] pulser_g2:
This is just yet another Internet myth perpetuated by people, allowed to spread on forums and blogs.

It's been known for some time that the battery calibration is done by the power management chip, and the file plays no part.
[Galaxy S II General] tietherope:
The option is not from Google. CWM Recovery got it wrong it seems.
[Galaxy S II General] DaddyCool08:
Of course i know that its not from G.

Maybe cwm team should take the option away then.

Diannes great to follow on G+. Shes after putting up some really good posts clearing up a few things
[Galaxy S II General] Entropy512:
On some HTC devices, I believe battery stats are used to load heuristics into the fuel gauge chipset - but not on any Samsungs I am aware of. The fuel gauge on almost all Samsung devices is designed to not require calibration. (It is slightly less accurate and can get "faked out" in some corner cases, such as a reboot on low battery, for this reason - but it will also never go COMPLETELY wacky and will always converge towards truth.)

On some HTC devices, an improperly calibrated battery could cause a false low battery reading that would trigger an early shutdown - the battery wasn't really low but the device thought it was.

Note that the actual battery heuristics file on such devices might be something other than batterystats.bin - As I understand it, CM7 on the Nook Color had battery calibration issues for a while because it had a fuel gauge that DID require battery history info and the info was not being saved correctly.

However, I will say this again: Battery history is not, and cannot, be used in any way to affect the fuel gauge IC used in every Samsung device I have ever worked with.

http://www.maxim-ic.com/datasheet/index.mvp/id/6621 - Good read, that's the fuel gauge used by all first-gen Galaxy S phones. The MAX17042 used in the GSII is not publically documented, but it is similar - it has a few extra features which are not used in our device.
