[Xperia Play General] XperianceIT:
I play both Dead Space and MC3 on my play, and I like the controls for Dead Space, but do find the controls on MC3 a bit frustrating. I always end up using the touch screen for aiming and the rest of the physical buttons for their intended purposes. I do like how i can resize the touch controls on the screen to make them smaller and push them out of the way a little bit, that way my thumb isnt in my way as much, and i repositioned the grenade button to just slightly above and to the right of where my thumb naturally sits, and shrunk it down a bit, flawless grenade use now!... lol

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shamalh:
Hey Guys, i have a problem with my Note, for some reason Kies Gives me the Your Device Does Not Support Updating Over Kies Error, the OTA downloads and fails after rebooting to Install. Ive read that this is a CSC related problem where there is a mismatch. The Problem is, I'm not sure how to make them match ? my Info is :

Product Code : N7000HKAXFA

PDA: N7000XXKJ4

Phone N7000XXKJ4

CSC N7000 OJVKJ3

what do I need to change to correct this ?

I found out that the Software that my phone needs after the update that keeps failing me is infact

Phone XXKK5 ,PDA XXKK9 and CSC OJVKK2. The only rom I found similar to this is on Sammobile and while the ROM is N7000XXKK9 and CSC is OJVKK2, the Country is Turkey, so before I flash this does anybody know if this Rom will have English as its default Language?

Thanks for anyhelp guys, sorry for being noobish!
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] K3n H1mur4:
Simple question here: I'm tired of getting no good batt life no matter what ROM I flash. The reason is that I use some apps (SeePU, SetVSel, Lookout) who are running all the time, thus taking some precious juice from my phone. I like to have "control" (in this case, it means knowing always how much load is my phone going thru) and safety in my Defy, so simply stop using these apps is not an option.

Since extended batteries are really cheap these days, it came to my mind: there are 2 models of extended batts (except for the Defy+ one): the 2300 mAh one, which has the same size as the original, and the 3500 mAh one, which is bigger, but comes with a proper rear case for it. Now, what would be better: keep the phone's forms and water resistance, using the 2300 one and keeping the original batt always with me, or go for the bigger one, leaving the original batt always home (with more than double mAh, I wouldn't need it around anyway)?

Plus, for people who already use them, do these batteries actually add uptime to the phone? I mean, I know Defy+ users have trouble with the ROMs made for the original Defy mainly because the firmwares don't recognize the batt correctly, so wouldn't an extended battery suffer of the same issue?

Last, but not least: do you guys know where can I find a 2300 mAh battery these days? Every eBay auction I find is already closed due to stock running out, only 3500 mAh models are available.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DanielNIX:
I think you'll be better buying an original spare battery to carry around...those cheap batteries are never good, the real mAh is never the same as advertised, if not lower than the original battery

also the chems inside are probably cheap stuff 'cause their lifespan is significantly shorter

always hope someone will prove me wrong! ;)
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glycolysis:
Either get a real Motorola battery or get the 3500mAh. It's not possible to fit 2300mAh of battery capacity in the original space, Li-ion does have its limits.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] overlord395:
i wonder if Defy still has waterproof capability if using thick battery
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adamo3957:
The defy + battery issue is down to different type of battery (chemical)

The big battery looses the water resistance, so I would choose a second original battery as the quality is good, best battery you can get that's genuinely better is the mugen 1900 the cheap ones dont last

teamwork makes the dream work
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LetoKynes:
Personally I got myself an external USB battery :)
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] K3n H1mur4:
No, the original batt cover has a different design which provides the water resistance. Generic covers does not provide this protection

Tell me more, I'd get one of these if I knew more.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dm4n:
New case for extended battery addon

Hi,

Considering getting an 3500mAh extended battery from ebay.

I have a case for the Defy with standard battery and it's protected the phone from a few drops.

With the extended battery - the old case won't fit- I'm thinking a silicone protector would be good. Has anayone adapted a case/ protector for their Defy using extended battery?

Cheers.

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vicky_:
Do not go for something that makes your phone bulky since it would not fit in the doc

Hi, :)

It is good to upgrade the phones battery :good:(If it is a original Moto battery, since battery leaks from low quality battery would kill your phone).

If the new battery would make your phone bulkier then it would make the phone not to fit in the docks available for this phone. Also changing the original battery cover might make the phone less water-resistant.

Cheers,

I picked up a few of this Streak OTG Cables and am trying to sort out what is needed to make them work on the dell streak 7.

Im currently running root 514 but the cable doesn't seem to do anything.

Anyone have any info on how to enable OTG on the Streak? They got it working on streak 5... figured should be supported by 7 as well.

Appreciate any info..

Thanks!

[Dell Streak 7] wptski:
There's only so many contacts on a USB port, so use a meter to compare to a Dell OEM cable. Unless there is something else in the connector?
[Dell Streak 7] mobilemedic:
This isn't a standard usb plug.. its for OTG USB Host... For Thumbdrives and USB Keyboards etc.

IT shorts out pins 2 and 4 to get the streak into USB Host mode. It was shown working for the Streak 5. Got some to try on 7. Donno if its not in the Kernel or what needs to be enabled.

TheManii you have any insight?
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
It needs kernel support, some custom kernels on the s5 have otg support and the s7 might.

Stock kernels do not though, even 5xx kerns.

Where did you buy it? When I last checked the guy that makes them only sold them in bulk, either that's changed or someone else is making/selling them now.
[Dell Streak 7] mobilemedic:
Hes still selling them in Bulk. I was able to get a few for testing as I plan to resell them if they are worthy. Not having kernel support in Stock build kinda puts a kink in my plans if thats true. But either way personally would like to have it working for my streak.

Any rom build suggestions I should try?

Hi mobilemedic... :) You managed to get to work OTG cable on Dell Streak 7? You bought it from HXCOMCHINA? Would it work on Android 3.2? And is it possible to connect multiple devices through a USB hub?
[Dell Streak 7] Blaide555:
I got one, to not work.

Where did you see that they got it to work because i have a host OTG cable i bought that i cannot get to work even with a dell streak 5, I've tried all the USB mice and keyboards in the house and ive tried my USB thumbdrive, but i cant get them to work.

Have you or anyone gotten one of these cables that look like that,.. with the triangle (not a USB sign)? (except the triangle on mine is not white,.. just black)

Are they're extra drivers required that are not included in the latest dell streak update?
[Dell Streak 7] giveen:
For the last time (and please someone close these threads) THERE IS NO OTG drivers from DELL.

You need a Y cable to power the USB device as the Streak 7 does not supply power through USB.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xmatrix13:
Hey guys will overclocking drain the battery quicker even with stock voltages?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harbb:
Different voltages are specified as stock for different frequencies. As the frequency changes, the voltage does too. Running 1200mhz with the stock 1000mhz voltage will probably cause instability and crashing.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shark_On_Land:
Harrb, great post.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zlwu:
And if increase voltage, the power consumption should also increase.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] your asian:
i haven't played with voltages yet but in my experience the benefits of overclocking are minimal anyway, and they make nexus reboot often and other bad things :/
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harbb:
With the right settings you can get a fully stable and functional overclock, but it is on a per-phone basis due to varying quality of the same CPU during manufacture.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xmatrix13:
Currently I'm using icup kernel speedy 5 clocked at 1.4 and its been extremely stable. So what your saying is that the voltages automatically increase when I select a higher frequency, because I did not change them manually.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suksit:
Open NSTools and select Voltage tab. That's the list of "stock" voltages for each frequency.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xmatrix13:
Thanks
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harbb:
A CPU governor such as on demand, lulzactive and lazy tells the CPU what clock to be at and automatically change. While reading, it will be at 100 or 200mhz, while playing a game it will be at the maximum clock you tell it to. Saves power this way.

Battery usage graph is relative - which means, all its values add up to 100%.

In case you're using your phone with your screen on - texting, playing, reading, browsing, whatever - this is what you're going to see. On current phones, the screen is the main "power eater", bypassing everything else altogether by far.

http://www.anandtech.com/show/5310/samsung-galaxy-nexus-ice-cream-sandwich-review

Probably the most thorough and detailed review of ICS and Galaxy Nexus. For those of you familiar with Anandtech you'll know what to expect.

"The Galaxy Nexus is so important again because it's the only time Google gets to dictate everything - the hardware, the software, and update timing. There's also the element of freedom, with unlockable hardware out of the box. I find myself wishing that Google had begun its adventure sticking it to the carriers with pentaband WCDMA support like this phone finally has, as that would've been much more successful than the practice of releasing a few different Nexus variants with different bands.

As far as Ice Cream Sandwich is concerned, it really is Android perfected. Everything is smoother, faster and nearly all of our issues with the OS have been addressed. ICS brings Android into 2012 and gives Google a great platform to begin to introduce new features going forward. Android is now very close to UI performance parity with iOS, which eliminates a major tradeoff you had to make in the past. If you were hoping for ICS to be iOS with a Google logo on it, you'll be sorely disappointed. However if you're a fan of Android and just wished it were smoother and more polished, Ice Cream Sandwich is what you've been waiting for."
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] edved:
As you would expect from Anand a completely thorough review! Good stuff.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tom369:
What I don't get is why AnandTech and Chipworks list different type camera sensors in this device (main sensor). While using sensors from different manufacturers is common, there's a significant difference: AnandTech says this is NOT back-illuminated sensor while Chipworks says the opposite (S5K4E1G vs. S5K4E5YA):

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] reuthermonkey:
With so many people on this forum (apparently mostly VZW users) whining about battery life, here is something very notable from this thorough review:

1) Battery life on the GSM version is in fact a HELLUVA lot better than the LTE version, and is in fact even better than CDMA when in 3g-only mode.

2) However battery life on the LTE Nexus is *better* than every other LTE device in its category.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EP2008:
6.2 hours wifi web browsing. How the hell did they manage that? I get 2-3 hours MAX using inverted colors and the lowest screen brightness! Static pages too, no movies, etc...

I'd love to see a time lapse of this test!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sjankis630:
Amen to that. I have managed about 3 hours of screentime at 40% brightness on stock and I immediately get the 15% battery low warning.

It is a great review though. I would say it might be too thorough. I got lost during some of the wireless and audio testing...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] josteink:
I had no idea that they stripped the Verizon-version clean of radios. Two bands? That thing is untraveable.

I guess US carriers like Verizon are serious about their lock-ins.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gogol:
Most probably that only test the web browsing without anything else enabled.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mysterioustko:
I didn't realize the Galaxy Nexus' OMAP 4460 has more memory throughput than the Tegra 3. Wow..that says a lot about Nvidia IMO..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EP2008:
I've emailed the Anandtech editor to see if they can provide details of their battery testing parameters. If I get a reply, I'll post it here.

However, I highly doubt that disabling stuff would increase the SCREEN TIME by more than double what we get in real world use.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dario3040:
Good review. But one thing that bothers me about is their apparent hate for the gpu...

Also they tested 4.0.1 which is kind of unfinished I would say.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dinan:
They claim this is how they run the web browsing test which is fine... but the results don't support the test conditions. Over 5 hours of web browsing @ 200 nits? They claimed earlier that 200 nits is the BRIGHTEST the screen will go. GSMArena recorded just over 3 hours of web browsing at less than maximum brightness - how could Anandtech get so much more browsing time at max brightness?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EP2008:
Yes, something isnt right. Is it a coincidence that Samsung also gives this device 6 hours battery life (continuous use)? It puts into question the other results, like talk time or wifi hotspot...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Wiggz:
Just wanted to concur with that point. UK GNex user here and my batteyr life isn't too bad. Can get through a day when data is constantly used, however I have my WiFi toggle on constantly to pickup any WiFi networks I can as I travel for work which normally means I can get to around 11pm at night after taking it off charge at 7am still with 50% battery. Not too bad I don't think.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zerozoneice:
good to see they confirmed the 1080p @ 24fps @ 10mbps profile as being lower than what the hardware is capable of.

it's true that 720p@30fps looks smoother and coupled with Holmes6's mod (check signature) bumps bitrate at 15mbps....looks darn good and smooth.

maybe an update will bump OOB recording bitrates eventually
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
i think i can believe it. they use a script that just reloads about 12 webpages over and over, every 1 minute i think it loads a new page. i can see getting 6 hours screen time with that even though i know many only get 3-4 hours.

when i do static things like read ebooks with black, i can get like 6-7 hours of screen time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MoosDiagramm:
Another important factor is that they do their tests with optimal reception. A smartphone fighting with bad reception (which happens all the time with real-world mobile usage) uses a lot more battery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] case0:
Are you sure he tested on 4.0.1? Because he mentions taking multiple pictures for face unlock and that wasn't a feature in 4.0.1..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] [hfm]:
They tested 4.0.2

http://www.anandtech.com/show/5310/samsung-galaxy-nexus-ice-cream-sandwich-review/5

Notice the User Agent table data..

EDIT: Also in the camera section "The capture preview also fully implements tap to focus and expose, and tracks faces around if in the scene. I noted a small change between 4.0.1 (no doubt the result of what was noted in some other reviews) - pressing and holding the capture button no longer toggles an AF/AE run, instead still image capture runs continuous auto focus just like video. "

YOU DIDN'T READ THE REVIEW, ADMIT IT.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Drewmungus:
Holy crap now thats what I call a review. Lots of good stuff to know. One thing got me wondering though. They keep mentioning the differences between phones running on a gsm network and a cdma network, but they never mention what network the iPhones are running in the comparison charts.

" In real world shooting I encountered many more poorly lit indoor environments where you can really see the noise"

"The Galaxy Nexus’ camera is definitely not the best around"

What a surprise... the camera is crap compared to 1yr+ old phones. Is it official Now?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NexusDro:
Ya, that's odd. AnandTech found that the sensor is S5K4E5 and on Samsung's site it says it is backside illuminated, if I read it correctly.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] David Horn:
I have bog-standard vision and can tell it's Pentile. Still stunningly good, though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vapotrini:
Yes it was. The phone launched with face unlock and that rom.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] reuthermonkey:
It's been official since the day it was introduced during the 4.0 announcement. Whoop-de-doo.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RacingManiac:
Yep, most Verizon phones are only usable in US/Canada, unless you buy specifically the global model...

That was a hell of a review....sorta made me depressed about the shortcoming in the GN....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yoyohere2:
I believe the 6 hour wifi browsing. Attached is my screenshot of Verizon nexus stock with 6 hour screen time of playing a video.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
The problem isn't "two bands". Its that its CDMA/LTE. Neither of which being world standards (CDMA being proprietary freq and chips to Verizon, and LTE being on different freq than other carriers).

CDMA is by nature a serious lock-in.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dinan:
What was the brightness set to? And also what codec and bitrate was the video? You also have to take into account that web browsing is usually done on more white backgrounds than a video, so that would reduce battery life even further.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EP2008:
Yes, video playback will last a lot longer than web browsing, but still... 6 hour screen time is amazing no matter how it's done. Why are so many of us getting so much less on screen time?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tigajr:
"As far as Ice Cream Sandwich is concerned, it really is Android perfected. Everything is smoother, faster and nearly all of our issues with the OS have been addressed."
