I like this phone a lot but I'm having battery problems. It's completely gone by noon just sitting there.

Does anybody know of a battery not from Pantech?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stevotdo:
I had a similar problem with mine. Charge it up and run it straight dead a few times. Remove the battery, put it back in and charge it back up. I think there is a battery bug.

I had to do that to my wife's crossover too. There is an option in cwm recovery tool to erase the battery stats. I'm not sure if that would accomplish the same thing or not.

my phone does some weird behaviors when i charge it. I wake up in the morning to find that my phone shut itself off during the night., It does this about once a week sometimes more. It sucks cuz i use my phone as my alarm clock and if its off i don't wake up. Any idea why it may do this? I look and it shows the charging icon that you get when your phone is not turned on and you try to change... any idea?

i hope its fixed in ICS, mine has only done it while charging
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcusmarcus:
Mine has not charged when I plugged it in occasionally (only has done this twice so far). I check all the cables and try charging it with a different cable and plug it into the computer and it still does not charge. I have to power the phone off and then back on then it will charge fine. You may be having the same issue (though alot more than I am). I just make sure the battery icon in the notification bar is showing that it is charging. My guess is yours does not detecting it is plugged in to charge either so at night it will eventually drain until it powers off and once it powers off then it recognizes that it is plugged into charge so then it shows that charging screen. I have contacted Pantech support regarding that a few time with a few other issues. They are not very helpful, they take their time to respond and only respond to 1 thing in my email that contained many issues and questions. It took numerous emails before they responded to all issues/questions.

I would recommend anyone with any issues to contact them to make sure that all these issues are addressed when/if the next update comes out. Maybe the more people that flood them with issues, the quicker they will try and get ICS update out.

Email them at HandsetHelp@pantech.com
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kagedws6:
are you using you computer or another non pantech charger? I've heard they can be picky of the voltage and would think that might apply more to while its on then off. more likely the other person was right when they said it simply didn't detect the charger and shut off where it then detected it and that would be a good explanation on why you still woke up with a full charge but it shut down.

I had my cliq xt and ever since I had started with aftermarket roms on it whenever attached to power when it shut off it would reboot back on if plugged into a computer. that came in handy a lot because like you my cell phone is my alarm clock. I wonder if that was an option someone built into the roms?

Is JUUS03122012 not being pushed out any more?

I don;t know if anyone else has done this lately. I have been having trouble with my phone on mobile data lately and was not able to get mobile data to work whatever I did so I just decided to go back to stock and start over. I put the stock JUUS12052011 ROM back on the phone and stock recovery. So now my phone is completely stock again. I Did this before to remove root back when they pushed out the JUUS03122012 update so I could get the update. Now that I am back on the old stock ROM and recovery, I go to check for updates and it tells me no updates are available. Did Pantech/AT&T stop pushing out the update to JUUS03122012? Did they find a problem with it? Not sure if anyone else noticed that but I thought I would put that out there so people would know.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kagedws6:
Not sure but I still have JUUS12052011 and no updates. I checked like 4 times while I was away visiting family and when I got home I rooted and still no change. I wonder if they have ICS getting ready to go out and they figured that other update would be pointless at that point. *crosses fingers*

Side note: I just installed Go Launcher and a bunch of its addons. looks nice so far. it also has a power management (with estimated times of battery left) and it has an option for power saver which is a HUGE increase for those who don't need constant data connection (my phone is in my pocket at work all day and honestly doesn't need to check my gmail every 5 min when I only check it at lunch) and also for at night it has an alarm mode where it shuts off the data and voice where pretty much the only thing running will be the alarm itself.

as far as its themes (where it looks like it makes its money) there are some nice ones that are free u just have to sift. not sure about all the addons I just went and added any it put on the homescreen.

Go Launcher

I installed the go launcher and had charging problems that I didn't have prior to go launcher. I had placed my phone on the charger for 8 he (while I slept) and it only charged to 60%. After I uninstalled the go launcher the problem was reminded. Not sure if the go launcher caused this but thought it was odd.

Information from Pantech

I received an email response from Pantech today. They provided me with instructions for using the proper tool chain to build the kernel as well as to unlock the bootloader (though I am questioning the bootloader instructions; I will seek further clarification). Below is there email response to me...

Dear Customer,

Thank you for your interest about Pantech Android Smart Phone.

I'm sorry it took so long to answer.

1. You can download arm-eabi-4.4.0 from http://www.mediafire.com/file/msmnx8n6xj6ayf/arm-eabi-4.4.0.zip (If you paid attention to my earlier posts you will recognize that this is the toolchain the build_kernel.sh file contains from within the source {if you open the build_kernel.sh as a text file you will see this toolchain executed}. Additionally, when you read the read me file in the same package it shows running the build_kernel.sh file as a step in building the kernel successfully.)

2. You can make the bootloader unlock state using command of adc shell. (still need to try this. My SDK does not recognize this command. I am going to seek further assistance with this. Anyone recognize this shell?)

Thanks

Regards,

Open source Support Team

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kagedws6:
Just to clarify:

You want to be able to play media from your phone on a server you already have setup? (I think the remote might come into play with this)

or

You want to get the hdmi to phone cable and use your phone as a settop box of sorts? (this seems to be what they are currently working on making the phone the actual server)

or something I missed alltogether
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcusmarcus:
Nope.

I want to play media from my server (or phone) on my phone using the XBMC interface. I don't want to hook it to a TV, just use the phone screen.

I do have the XBMC remote on my phone but that only allows be to control my XBMC installation on the HTPC from my phone, does not allow me to play the media on the phone.

They are working on getting the media center ported over to the phone. The media center does have server features built into it but you don't need to enable them, It's mainly a client. I don't have the server enabled on my HTPC.

Tethering & portable hotspot

When i wanted to activate my mobile hotspot, an error message showing up, " to enable mobile hotspot on this device, go to att.com/mywireless or dial 611" .

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kagedws6:
The phone is designed stock to allow mobile hotspot access but with att you have to pay the additional fee to unlock that ablity. to do so without you would need to root your phone and use an app like Wifi tether or Barnicle or Wifi Tether from opengarden as a few examples

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcusmarcus:
I found a pre compiled version that runs on my Burst. When I first launch it I have to hold the home button down to show running programs and then "x" XBMC to close it and then relaunch and then it runs. Pictures show OK on it. Music plays but with a lot of garble. I don't have any videos on the phone so I haven't tested that but I am more interested in pointing the videos to a folder on my server to see if it will play videos over the network without having to have them on the device itself. My guess is the sound will be garbled as well seeing as mp3 was garble sound.

Here is where I found it http://mir.cr/1ACRSW7E

Edit: I was able to add a video add on to pull videos from the Internet. The video looks good but the audio is garble. Navigation works well on the Interface but once in a while it is a little hard to hit some buttons due to the screens small size. Interface would be nice on a 7-10 in tablet.

HTC Desire HD will not receive the ICS update

I hope our beloved burst doesn't follow suit. apparently Google is pressuring the handset makers to get ICS out to as many phones as possible to prevent fragmentation from going any further. that's the one thing I liked about the iphone vs android. very little to no fragmentation leads to better performance and more apps created. a creator doesn't want to have to design something to work in a million different configurations and operating systems/versions.

The cliq xt almost pushed me into getting an iphone because I bought it with 1.5 on it with the promise of an update (other phones were already 1.6 but had no update in the works) after over a year still no update and they finally said oops we're not going to go threw with it after all. thanks to xda for building a version of cm7 which made the phone bearable.

I hope either Pantech or XDA is able to help us get ICS or Jellybean here soon!

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theandre:
Just want to say that unlike Motorola's Motoblur and Samsung's TouchWiz, the skin on Burst is actually not bad ! For instance multitasking is extremely useful and much better than stock version. I also like the lockscreen with cool battery charging idicator. The lockscreen allows to open different things which is way better than Motoblur's version of the lockscreen. Another awesome thing is the pull down notifications bar, it has all the necessary toggle switches. For instance I love the screen orientation toggle!

The camera is dissaponting, especially the video. Here is the sample that I took hours ago http://youtu.be/eJT2t4W2CPs . The audio quality is good though.

I have a very nontrivial question: why on earth powerful dual core smartphone namely Pantech Burst takes choppy 720p while another smartphone namely HTC Vivid with the exact CPU/GPU combo takes smooth 1080p ?

What is going on? Did AT&T cripple Burst down on purpose or what ?

Do you think it is possible to improve video quality with rooting and other kinds of hacking ?

I tried MIUI camera apk. It works well but I don't think it does anything in terms of quality.

UPDATE. Actually MIUI camera produces images with bigger size, see the difference for yourself.

Left is MIUI right is stock.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mr72:
Does the MIUI camera allow you to set the frame rate?

I wonder if Camera Pro https://play.google.com/store/apps/...1bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS50ZXF1bmlxdWUuY2FtZXJheCJd will let you set the frame rate on the Burst. I am sure that at 24 or 30fps 720p or even 480p video would be a major improvement. As I understand it, the stock Burst camera is stuck at 19fps on HD video.

If I cared about shooting video I'd be willing to risk $2 on the Camera Pro just to see whether I can get 24fps at 1080p or 30fps at 480p/720p.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theandre:
I just installed Camera Pro and results are a mixed bag. In the video mode it simply refuses to start recording. On the other hand in the video mode the preview framerate seems to be very high, waaaay smoother than the stock camera. Also in the video mode it lets me use touch to focus (center only of course). I assume video/photo quality can be improved on this phone if we get custom roms kickin'. I am pretty sure ICS update will improve a lot of things
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mr72:
Well the frame rate in preview mode is not limited by the speed of the encoder or the write speed to flash. So that is no indicator. However, the fact that it will not record video is a severe limiting factor.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theandre:
Why does stock camera have choppy preview?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mr72:
stock video camera does not have choppy preview. looks perfect. front-facing camera has choppy preview.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theandre:
Either way, I think the sensor is good and the phone can get much better results. Part of the issue might be very high compression of the video files. Same with the pictures, iPhone 4 with its 5MP produces much bigger pictures in terms of the file size.

I wonder, though, if touch to focus can be enabled during the video capture....
