Here's an example HDMI adapter (keep in mind the charger itself needs power to function and it won't charge your phone at the same time): http://www.amazon.com/MHL-ATC-Certified-Supports-Sensation/dp/B0063J9F6C/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1327587031&sr=8-1

USB OTG is useful if you want to hook up a USB flash driver directly to your device and mount it, I just picked one up the other day and it's pretty cool. Here's the USB OTG cable I got http://www.amazon.com/T-Flash-Adapter-Samsung-GT-i9100-GT-N7000/dp/B005FUNYSA/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1327587128&sr=1-1
[Verizon Droid Charge] JihadSquad:
So i was playing music today (first time in a while) and not doing much else. I noticed the battery was draining rapidly so here is CPU spy:

I suspect most of that 1200 is the music. How can i keep it down? I am using the stock music player btw

[Verizon Droid Charge] HTCluva:
I've found if you go into the market and type in android music you will get the stock froyo music player. It sounds the same and uses about 1/4 as much ram as the stock player
[Verizon Droid Charge] hazard209:
Go to you're about phone in settings and look at battery use. If music is what's causing the battery loss, you can stop overclocking and undervolt at 800 and 1000 aggressively and that should help while you're listening to music.
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
What CPU governor are you using?
[Verizon Droid Charge] JihadSquad:
Thanks; I'll try this.

I don't know why, but UV has never worked properly for me. The phone always restarts itself when the CPU enters a UV'd state. Maybe i just need specifics on how to do it.

I am using smartassv2. Would conservative help?
[Verizon Droid Charge] hazard209:
Well start simple and test UV values. Just do -50 across the board to start.

Here's what I use: IO Scheduler - noop, CPU Governor - smartassV2, 1200/-50, 1000/-50, 800/-100, 400/-100, 200/-125, 100/-125

But those are pretty aggressive UV settings.
[Verizon Droid Charge] xdadevnube:
Firstly, I suggest trying the free Mortplayer or the non-free Poweramp. I like them both.

I have the stock music player frozen and I didn't test it. I did test Poweramp and Mortplayer with 160kbps MP3 as well as uncompressed WAV while virtually nothing was running on my phone.

I found the results with OS Monitor. I stared at OS Monitor for quite a while without music playback first to make sure stuff doesn't jack the CPU. Android System jumps from 0 - 1% every now and then. System jumps from 0 - 2 % every now and then. All EQ and Tone filters were disabled.

Each of the following OS Monitor values were averaged in my mind while playing music for a few minutes for each playback type.

Poweramp 160kbps MP3: System and Poweramp processes together averaged 12% (each process was roughly the same average, so the load was split)

Poweramp 44.1 kHz 16bit stereo WAV: System and Poweramp processes together averaged about 9% (Poweramp process was between 1 and 2%- System took most of the load.)

Mortplayer 160kbps MP3: Mortplayer process 0% with System taking the load at 12% average.

Mortplayer 44.1 kHz 16bit stereo WAV: Mortplayer process 0% with System taking the load at 9% average.

In conclusion, Mortplayer and Poweramp use the same overall CPU resources during playback. Playback of MP3 uses more CPU resources than uncompressed WAV files. Mortplayer uses the System process while Poweramp shares the load with the System process.

My setup.

IMO 4.0 kernel with Tegrak Overclock with Interactive X governor. Overclocked to 1.252Ghz. Minimum scaling frequency is at 200Mhz.

CPU Spy shows that I use multiple CPU states (mostly 200, my minimum scaling frequency) during playback, as evidenced by resetting the timers in CPU Spy and refreshing after some time has lapsed while playing music. Is there a way to see the active state? My guess is that the state changes in microseconds, so the existing state status would be pointless (just a guess.)

Does anybody know if OS Monitor is calculating the CPU usage with respect to the maximum frequency all the time? I suspect this is the case.

Sorry for the derailing action.
[GT540 Optimus General] pahb22:
Last weekend i flashed my LG to latest CM 7 v6 by PCFigther, everything worked great except the internet (needed to turn it on and off to make it work), it wasnt a big problem, also i notice that my phone wont charge up to 99% it would stay on 97%, i researched and found out that CM 7 v6 has still bugs in it, people where saying that CM7 c5 is more stable and to use zice's Kernal, i didnt know how to add another kernal to this rom, so what i did is download CM 7 v5 and zice's Kernal, remove the default kernal that was inside CM 7 v5 and replaced it with zice's kernal, flash it using fastboot, everything worked, had 2.3.7 with zice's Kernal, the only downside about this is that i couldnt find the Market, couldnt add a google account (didnt had the screen that let me add the google account at the start), so i decided to go back to V6 and did it by recovery, but now i have so many problems, anyone can help me on how to flash CM 7 v5 with zice's Kernal or how to add the market, google account to my android.

Thanks in advance!

So I have 3 dead pixels. I bought from tigerdirect and I have no idea when they're getting more stock...should I return it or not?

I mean everything works good (except GPS) like my wifi's pretty decent and everything. I'm afraid if I return it and get another one it might be even worse.

I guess it comes down to whether or not it'll annoy me. What do you guys think?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Keion:
return. dead pixels are unacceptable.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] _Gir_:

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] _Gir_:
Some folks are going on 2 weeks. Plus, what if they don't fix it the first time?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BSMan1011:
Well waiting two weeks would suck but I think I might unlock the bootloader when the tool comes out next month and the warranty is gone then....An if I get another bad one then I guess I will keep trying, I just want it to be as good as it can be, and those bright pixels stand out like no other on white screens, just when I am browsing internet they are like spotlights and I die a little everytime I see it.

Can you post pictures? I have 2 stuck pixels but the pixels are so tiny I have a hard time seeing them with the tablet 5 inches in front of me! My screen has very very small bleeding, and everything else is ok so I don't want to risk all of the other problems if I exchange.

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hybrisCole:
Hello,

I installed GingerStreak2.4.4, and it worked just fine for about 2months, one day I was playing some kind of soccer game where you have to swipe to give a direction to the ball, I stopped playing it and just let my streak on a table until it got discharged, I turned it on until the next day after charging it for a while, and my surprise was that the touchscreen became unresponsive.

I tried to re-install it with different densities, different launchers, I think I tried all the possible configurations in the intstall.txt (I cleaned dalvik machine and all that stuff prior to every new installation), I tried the Screen Calibration, wich it says that is correctly calibrated, but when I enter to the white fastboot screen, and run the tests, the touchpad test only work in a "small rectangle" rather than the whole screen, so I'm afraid that this is a configuration issue.

So, in order to discard any possible damage to the touchpad, I would like to be able to install .pkg files again, since that's the format the Stock ROM have (right now is only accepting .zip files). So I need to revert the recovery tool that I had to install before installing the custom ROM. Do you guys know how to revert the recovery, or to run .pkg files again at least?

Thanks in advance!
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
To change recoveries, follow the procedure you used to install StreakMod Recovery on the Streak in the first place. Just make sure it's a stock recovery you install.

From there, assuming that this is not a hardware issue, you should be able to install the stock ROM. After that, install DSC 0.7 instead of GingerStreak. GingerStreak's code is based off a beta version of the 407 ROM, whereas DSC is based off 407 itself.

And If So How And If Not Which one is better C9 Alpha 0.5 or C7 Alpha 3.5?
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quarlow:
This has been covered ad naseum. No, you cannot currently tri-boot. There are several reasons, the main one being no that tries both OSs ever wants to have both. The CM9 post on rootzwiki explains a little, I don't think the partitions are big enough for both.

CM7 is more complete, CM9 is missing some features, but features many don't care about. Its missing some types of video playback (Netflix, HD YouTube, normal YouTube videos play fine), camera support, and something else. I found CM7 unusable, as its just a phone OS scaled bigger. But ICS is leaps and bounds better. It also doesn't have the WiFi issue CM7 has.

Best thing would be for you to install both and decide on your own.

I've looked and can't find a simple way to nvflash Ubuntu. Cause I don't have a microSDcard too.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mrevankyle:
You do not need a microSD card to NVFlash...

Use frank123's 1 click ubuntu installer it is extremely easy
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Sustantivo:
Uhm yeah but there is a tutorial that you nvflash with a micro SD or something :) hahah thanks man I'll search it now
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mrevankyle:
NVFlash is what you do when you plug your tablet into your computer in apx mode and run an exe it does not require a microsd

CWM which is the more common rom/kernal flasher is done from your tablet and the normal version for that requires a microSD. (There is a new one that allows you to flash from internal sd)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Danzano:
If you want full control over whats going on dont use windows or an exe do it through linux and use stevie's script if it screws out atleast you know what has happened and can hopefully fix it.

The process is pretty safe now but i still prefer to do anything concerning android in ubuntu on my pc.

This might not be exactly what you are looking for, however if you go to the App Menu > Widgets > Settings Widget you can add a link to the sound menu right onto your desktop.

If that doesn't help you, go to the Market and search for "volume control." I took a quick look and saw at least several dozen volume control apps and widgets that should suite your needs.

See, it is of my opinion that any tablet/ebook reader out there should have a HHGTTG boot animation at least...because c'mon...that's what it is...almost...

Ok, so far I have some old gif's from the original TV show, so they are kinda low res and sketchy, I've compiled it into a package...and i've got it working...so the bootanimation.zip at the bottom of this post is the old school TV show animation...compiled from these 3 gifs, in the same order and ending with the blue background "Don't Panic"

they are a little slower on purpose and only looped twice...

and it ends with this picture

and then, if you have a slow boot time, it will loop as many times as it takes to boot...but yep..there we go :-)

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] plasticarmyman:
some more news...

ok so far i've converted the mp4 file into 4 gif files, simply because my NC boots up in less than a minute, there is no reason for my boot animation to have over 300 frames....but i may try it still just to see if it works...

the great thing about making your own boot animation is if it doesn't work...your device will boot up as a black screen....no bricking worries or anything...it's a good spot to start with the developing of your android device....I personally love it because it is something that is an instant change and noticeable, whereas some of the other behind the scenes stuff, kernels and whatnot, sometimes the changes with those aren't as noticeable. *shrug*

anyways. i have 3 different excerpts from the movie...so i can possibly make 3 different animations...it will probably take me a while...i do not have much free time, but i am dedicated.
