so finally, i just want to know if i can input all the settings myself so that i can have data on my phone
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tammerlane:
I think, starting with GSM phones, but with digital phones in general, you can no longer manually program phones; all phone programming is done over the air. But, since this is Xda, maybe someone knows how to insert that information thru a file in the OS.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fifasarajevo:
Ok guys so my brother in law has the EPIC 4G and im the one who flashes roms and such for it and has rooted it cuz he doesnt know how to do that stuff :rolleyes:

so i am not usually caught up with the new roms and kernels for the EPIC 4G cuz i have an EVO 3D

anyway

what is the best ROM and Kernel combo out at the moment to get the best battery life for this phone

ive flashed MIUI and ive tryed CM7 for him and he says neither have been providing him a great battery life

im assuming its because of the current kernel hes using (havent flashed a new one in a while) or it could be because hes still using the stock battery which isnt all that great.

so if anyone can provide some answers it would be very helpful

please and thanks. :D
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LORDFIRE00:
what rom and kernel is the phone using? every phone is different. so there is no specific rom or kernel combination to say per phone. cm7 is mtd, so i cannot help you with the mtd system. i don't use mtd yet.

but, is the phone running cm7 right now?

---------- Post added at 05:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:19 AM ----------

just for the record, signal strength does affect the battery life a great deal. in other words, if he uses the phone where he gets fair coverage or less, his battery will drain faster.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
Like what was just mentioned all phones and users are different. You will just have to try them out..no shortcuts. And if he expects to get much more than 4 hours display on time, it's not gonna happen on the stock battery. Keep him on CM7 and order him the GS2 1800 mAH battery from Amazon.

[General Questions and Answers] empiremaster23:
I need one. I am currently halfway through a 2 year Verizon LTE contract (pre-ordered the Thunderbolt, stupid me but at least I have unlimited data) but would buy an unsubsidized phone if necessary. I will be in East/Southeast Asia, Aus, Eastern and Western Europe.

Currently I'm thinking flagship phone with LTE + Quad Band GSM. The only viable options right now seems to be the Droid 4 (releasing next week) or the Verizon LTE Samsung Galaxy S 2. It seems like the Verizon LTE Galaxy Nexus does not have quad band GSM, although international versions do (but I want LTE when I'm in the states). The HTC Sensation does not have LTE, the Rezound lacks quad band GSM.

The other option is buy a used device solely for international travel. Maybe the Droid 3, HTC Sensation or Desire or even a Samsung Galaxy S.

Does anyone here know how much the decision to tune to lots of bands affects performance, call quality and battery life? I will not be carrying a computer or a tablet, so my phone is my lifeline. Also, if anyone has a Droid 3, what major countries does it NOT work in?

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] salvador1980:
Were I can buy the note 4G LTE.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] karmarocket:
I believe currently the only place the 4G LTE Note is being sold is in Korea.

If you wait a bit you can purchase one from AT&T in the USA.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] steveblue:
And if you wait a bit too, they will be up here in Canada - several vendors.

Although you need to ask yourself if the LTE is worth it compared to getting the international version now. Most folks on this forum are discussing and using that unlocked, uncripplewared, standarized, common cpu based version and since it appears from the current pre-specs that the LTE version will have to have a different cpu at the very least, you will not get the benefit of all the (this) development community has to offer. In some cases ( or opinions - including pinned to the forum section), you are in fact not getting a NOTE but a variant ( The Journal ...). Many are watching how different the LTE will be, but at least the cpu (a big deal) is different and most likely they will be locked to a vendor and possible more issues.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ericshmerick:
Since ATT is sending out threatening texts to unlimited users with grandfathered plans with as little as 2 gigs of use, I have no interest in LTE speeds. Ill get a warning in a day or two of LTE use.

The US wireless industry is f'd.

Translation: my international Note will be with me on ATT off contract as long as I can dodge their throttling threats. HSDPA+ is plenty fast for me.

if you are on an ics rom, force closes of sense can be stopped by making sure that all apps are stored on your phone memory and not on the sd card.

Check settings\applications\sd card and make sure that all the boxes are unchecked. ;)

also what mods have you added

did you restore any system apps / data with titamium backup after ROM flash

basically if threads suggest ROM is stable - and most GB ones are now it must be something unique you may have done...

you can always re-flash the ROM and see if that helps - you will loose any mods. You can then re-add.

Detective work I am afraid.

I have a Motorola Xoom that I was trying to boot into recovery.

There's a problem, my volume up button is broken. Didnt realize it before so now I'm stuck at the logo with the choice to scroll between RSD, Fastboot or Recovery but cant select any mode.

Is there a way to exit this ? Tried to keep the power button pressed and tried various combiations of vol down and power but no result.

If I let it sit and drain the battery, will it eventually get out of this mode ?

Thanks

Plug it into your computer and run adb then type fast boot reboot.

Sorry I should be more specific. Download easyadb and unzip it. Plug your Xoom into the computer and open a command prompt in that file with adb in it. Change your Xoom to fast boot protocol support and type fast boot reboot in adb.

Actually maybe try to press the volume up button really hard..
[Xoom General] barlie:
Hi,

Thanks for your reply. The problem with connecting to the pc is that adb wont recognize the device. Its because the device is stuck in select mode and not going into either of the RSD/Fastboot/Recovery options.

I can scroll through them but even hard pressing the up button wont work. I dropped it and the button doesnt work.

They are pretty easy to take apart, check out some videos on YouTube, etc and see if you can fix your volume button.

S-off = any rom you want, I don't understand the confusion lately with thinking you're stuck at what version you're on or changing your unlock method, I've seen a handful of threads asking what roms are compatible with unrevoked and if they need to unroot and reroot using revolutionary or if they can only flash a 2.2 rom, where is this confusion coming from has someone somewhere in the far reaches of the interwebz told ppl they can only stay within android version X if they used root method Y or what cuz there seems to be some serious misinformation floating around somewhere cornfuzzling all these noobs

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stlfrosti:
I think the confusion came from the way I rooted and then having ROMs say they are a SENSE version, or gingerbread (which I never had the luxury of updating to)

I guess I'm VERY happy to find out I can do anything now, but maybe it stems from still seeing 2.2 in my settings and having to use a certain method to root that was for 2.2 only...

SO, since there is still ancient versions showing up in my phone settings, then I guess I concluded I needed to stick to ROMs for that version.

Thank You all for the clarity!!!
