Pardon my faux-pas King for not hitting the thanks button. Clearly an oversight on my behalf.

Admittedly I did do a search but lazily as I only looked at the first result shown which had an invalid link.

LOL it's all good. You're from Texas, as am I, so you know how I like to keep my Texas pride (though I live in economy torn, been laid off twice, stupid gang bang neighborhood California).

Man I dream of the day I can sell my house and move back to San Antonio or Austin. I sure do miss Shiner Bock, fajitas & hot humid weather.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Indrid Cole:
Yeah I lived in Cali for a bit. Back when I was a kid. I went back to visit and it sucked dik.

I live at Medina lake just west of San Antonio. Fajitas yum.

Mmmmmmm Shiner Bock.

Austin was fun for a summer. I miss the bats. And the sweat. ;)

This is kinda close i think. youre looking for a webOS task switcher? ive tried em, i end up getting frustrated with em since sometimes i hit home to clear the screen, this requires it 2x. i know its not a big deal, but if its not what you expected to happen, it IS frustrating. hope this helps!

Sony Ericsson have open sourced the sensor HAL (hardware abstraction layer) so that now you can modify the behaviour of the stock light/proximity/accelerometer etc. For example, you could completely disable the light sensor, to stop automatic brightness.

More info and download on the Sony Ericsson site here: http://developer.sonyericsson.com/w...l-for-xperia-phones-available-as-open-source/

Hopefully this should also give a better insight to the sensors, so can look into fixing orientation problems with ICS builds

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] klarmacker:
Hi

I have the problem that i cant install some apps or update them.

In the market i get the error while install to SD card.

this issue was not at any app but some.

I Tried recovery from CWM not working.

Clear any Cash Dalvic cache formating sd and external sd card. I get the same error.

I Installed an Original Rom and set Re-Partition but i get the same error with 2.3.6.

I solved my Problem with a pit while flashing 2.3.6 with Odin.

So i used the Original 2.3.6 3 files Version and set the Pit in the Attechmend.

Re-Partition set and the problem was fixed.

After that i installed a custom Kernel with Odin and Installed Omega 1.1 ICS in CWM all my problems are solved.

BUT NOTE YOU LOOSE ALL YOUR DATA
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigMrB:
You don't have to loose all your data you just need to back it up properly first

Unnecessary post. Deleted.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] creativedevil:
I have had this problem with any ICS ROM I installed on my SGS II. I thought of simply unmounting the SD Card, try installing the Application or an Update for the Application, it always worked. Yes it does sound like there is too much to do each time you try installing a new app which will fail due to the mounted SD Card. But if the problem is unknown, and flashing a file to solve 1 problems breaks other two functions is a bigger and bitter problem, might as well try this simple solution.

Good Luck
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] confusedmuse:
For me it isn't the "sd-install" problem that occoured with cf-root since ICS 4.0.3 XXLPB.

But maybe it's one of the things that caused the problem.

Flashing back gingerbread, even a 5 part FW did NOT solve the problem, so i have a bad feeling about this...

First i thought the file "vold.stab" in folder "etc" that is responsible for the mounting, is just messed up.

But this file SHOULD be overwritten when flashing a 5 part FW... or not?

So i think my hardware is damaged... :(

But i never had any failure while flashing... the problem just happened suddenly...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] srivas95:
Just unmount sd card and install
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] confusedmuse:
Please read my previous 2 posts. It's not this problem.

The last resort to force the phone to use the internal card again should be to flash a 5 part official FW while having no external card inserted. But even after that procedure it still don't recognizes the internal card for apps...

It uses the external only. When having no external inserted, i can install apps only to phone storage. It's similiar to the known ICS Beta problem, but with a card swap in addition. And it's permanent. Flashing the Gingerbread FW that was on my phone when i bought it also didn't fix the problem.

Normally it's like this:

Phone storage, about 2GB, path: /mnt, for apps

Internal SD, 11.5GB, path: /mnt/sdcard, for apps and data

External SD, card size, path: /mnt/sdcard/external_sd, for data only

For me it's like this now:

Phone storage, about 2GB, path: /mnt, for apps

Internal SD, 11.5GB, path: /mnt/sdcard, FOR DATA ONLY

External SD, card size, path: /mnt/sdcard/external_sd, FOR APPS AND DATA

It just happened suddenly about a week ago. And i got several problems related to this.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ind3lible:
How does the display on this compare to the galaxy nexus? Can the human eye tell a difference? I'm really tempted by the high pixel density! So will our display be good for future apps or will most of them be made for 720 p displays?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] phatmanxxl:
You can tell the pixel density compared to the evo3d from the ET4g, it depends on your preference. Side by side specs the resolution is the only advantage the GNex has over our phones.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ind3lible:
I see, so display wise the gnex is more future proof? Unless the sprint version as rumored has a better gpu ?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Epix4G:
Unless has better cpu , gpu and 720p screen .... If it's omap 4470 it's a better phone than e4gt , if it's not then wait for sgs3....

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ind3lible:
True I'm just torn between which is more future proof the epic touch which I have or g nexus! D;
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] D-Tronic:
As far as Screens go, the differences between the two are:

Galaxy Nexus uses a Super AMOLED HD screen. This is the same technology used in the original Galaxy S line but with a higher resolution. With that said, the stated resolution for the Galaxy S screens were 480x800, however tests have shown that the actual perceived resolution is more like 392x653.

This is because Super AMOLED uses an inferior subpixel arrangement called PenTile. which uses green sub-pixels as a base, and then alternates between blue and red ones, which makes the arrangement RG-BG.

The Galaxy S II uses a Super AMOLED Plus display that has a far superior sub-pixel arrangement. Samsung calls it Real Stripe, but in fact it is basically just a normal RGB arrangement, but results in 50% more sub-pixels per one dot of screen estate. The results are a much more crisp and clear image.

In terms of performance, the Galaxy S II has a superior processor, and graphics processor. Galaxy Nexus uses the same exact GPU as the Nexus S (and the original Galaxy S line.)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] crypt0kiddie:
I like my E4GT but if I could do it over, I would have waited a few months and seen what came down the pipeline.

I picked up my E4GT in December as a replacement to my HTC EVO 4G and honestly, I can't really see THAT much difference. I mean the screen is nicer, it's faster, but I don't use my Android for mobile media devices. I use them to make calls, texts, as an alarm clock and as a portable hotspot for work or pleasure when I can't get access to WiFi.

Honestly the speeds on my EVO 4G were WAY better then on my Epic 4G Touch when on 3G.

I was would normally see a meg or so down, I'm lucky to see 100kbps on 3G now.

I do not pay for my phone so I've not complained much yet but I'm seriously considering paying the ETF and moving to ATT or something faster. What is the point of unlimited data if I can't use it? I remember thinking oh, I gotta be on Sprint because 4G will be so fast and unlimited blah blah blah. We actually HAVE 4G in my city and I'm like a mile too far away to use it and everything I do that has me mobile is the opposite direction of the 4G towers.

I'd rather have faster 3G at this point. I just haven't decided WHAT phone I want yet or with what carrier. I keep holding out that Sprints 3G will get better and I kept holding out for more 4G coverage, hence upgrading to the E4GT, guess I screwed up there.

:(
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] phatmanxxl:
Try a PRL hack, you'll probably get better 3g speeds and possibly kicked off with no etf, either way you win.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ind3lible:
So the resolution of our epic is more than 480X800?

Hi all,

This is my 2nd droid, first was the awesome dezire-z and now this.

Since cyanogenmod for this is not official, which is my favourite to make 2 days out of these post nokia smartphones, I thaught i'd play a bit with it.

Just fyi, I like having a phone that gives me a 2 day (morning to night, 36-40 hrs) battery with moderate use. When I had those goodo'l nokia n/e series, I never had to worry about charging...

Anyways, if you want to try this, here's what you need:

Root (ofcourse),

Titanium backup,

Ram manager,

Set cpu,

Log watcher,

Juice Defender,

Patience (a lot)

My set cpu is @1026mhz-192mhz, conservative, (adv) up%-75, down% 25, freq step - 5

Screen off - 432-192mhz, conservative highest priority

Batt <30% - 702-192mhz conservative

Charger ac - 1512-192mhz, on demand lowest priority

Ram manager - balanced multitasking

Titanium backup - frozen almost everything I don't use. I freeze some, use it for couple of days, monitoring with log watcher if I see any fc and defrost apps accordingly.

Frozen - accuweather, allShare, Ap mobile, Asphalt, Backup, Bilo, Bluetooth test, Bonus Apps, Calender, Customize Homescreen, Days, Digital Clock, Dual Clock, Email 3.*, Email 1.*, Home Screen test, IM 1.0, Kies Air, Kies wifi, kobo, Media hub, microbes, mini paper, more for me, My account 2.*, photo editor, polaris office, pro apps, Slacker, SNS*, Social Hub*, T-Mobile*, Tags, TeleNav, Video chat, Voice Command, Yahoo finance, Zinio reader

Couple more packages are there, but its risky beyond this point.

Juice Defender ultimate - advance, mobile data, bluetooth and wifi enabled, wifi preferred, autosync - ping, bt disable timoout - 5 min, bt enable on call, added my bose bt1 as configured devices, Screen - enable connectivity when screen is on, traffic - enabled, apps - disabled, location - enabled

If anybody can suggest other utils/pieces that may be useful to squize out batt life, please let me know.

Finally, thanks for this forum. This was and still is the most helpful for any of my droid queries.

Sent from my SGH-T989
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sean is here.:
Yeah, that's the pitfall of a smartphone. Check out Juice Defender. The free version's helpfulness is debatable, but the pay version is quite beneficial. Instead of freezing apps (which might be overkill, especially if you ever want to use the one's that are frozen), you can disable each app's connectivity with regard to behavior. It also manages 3G/wifi connectivity pretty nicely and has various profiles which can be set up to manage battery life.

Good luck!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] GaryAustin:
Good topic - thanks.

As an old-time BlackBerry user recently converted to SG2 - I'm getting ready to break-in the new phone on its first trip (ie MUST NOT FRICKEN' FAIL).

Getting at least a good 18hours of battery time helps...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] SevenSe7enSeven:
How many hours of use would you consider moderate use within the 40 hour period?

Personally I've noticed the battery will last up to 4 to 5 hours of display time on stock and its more or less the same with any Rom or clock I use. Seeing how I don't use the phone for a constant 5 hours the total battery life varies on what I'm doing that day.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] GaryAustin:
My SG2 shows 5h42m of full-time use (via Battery Monitor).

Battery Stats estimate 7h30min full time "Talk" - doesn't make sense... so I'm not reading the estimates correctly.

A single charge typically lasts about 18hours (takes it down to around 15-20%) at my office.

Just recently noticed that "AdFree" seems to have spiked my SG2 battery usage - I'm sure as a side-effect to re-directing adware to localhost (ie adware panic). Didn't see same effect on Xoom tablet.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] matthewdavis:
I can agree with everything here (thanks for posting) except the RAM Manager. It's generally accepted modern android devices don't need extra applications to manage running applications or RAM usage. Has there been evidence to prove otherwise?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] chlehqls:
It's true. It is better to let Android take care of memory management and often extra RAM is bad since Android is dependent on using up free memory for a better user experience.

More on HERE.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mstrk242:
Keep in mind, reading ram is a LOT less battery intensive than reading off nand. So when you're constantly killing active apps in ram, and then re-loading them later, you're actually hurting battery life.

If you want REAL battery savings, you should be paying attention to what is running at startup on your phone. You'd be amazed how many apps, hell even live wallpapers, run when they aren't being used. I'd suggest using system tuner, going into the startup tab, and removing anything that doesn't need to run at startup. Short of email programs, mms, and anything you want syncing in the background, I'd uncheck all other user apps you installed. They'll be put into memory then only when you actually use them, and save battery power.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bivasdas:
also, my theory is, i don't do anything that requires 1.5ghz clock cycle plus 2 cores. So if i'm on netflix on my mob, i just plug in the charger - therefore full 1.5 ghz is available.

This h/w is overkill per my opinion, i'd say its future proof for at least android 5, BBM (blue berry muffin) :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bivasdas:
There's a nasty kernel hack to do the same, buying the app is just easier, but thats just me.

I personally felt after all the throttling I did, this is the one tweak that makes the device snappy. After all there's so much ram to spare, this app tweaks the preloading I think. I can feel the difference when I clear memory and the snappyness just disappears.

[HTC Sensation] de-v8:
I dropped my Sensation and the glass cover of the screen smashed so I sent it back for repair which I fully expected to pay for. What I didnt expect was for them to also charge me for a new Mainboard. I called to query this and was told that the the bootloader had been changed, they had to replace the MB to lock it again in order to provide me with a warranty for the repair.

I explained to them that I thought this was nonsense and I was not fussed about a warranty and just requested that the screen was repaired.

As the phone was dropped, I wouldnt have thought for a minute that the phone would be fixed under warranty so what is their beef?

Was there not a press release from HTC saying that they were going to remove S-On from new devices? Does anyone have a link to this?

I'm now left with the option of paying £260 for the repair or have it returned for £23 which I'm thinking of doing then selling it on ebay.

Pretty gutted and disappointed at HTC
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
They weren't going to remove S-ON, they have offered the ability to unlock the bootloader. 2 VERY different things

It does seem a bit rubbish they've done that, though. They shouldn't care what else is up with the phone if all you want to do is pay for the repair of the screen
[HTC Sensation] de-v8:
Ah, that makes sense.

Yup, I'm pretty upset to be honest that they've got me over a barrel regarding repair.
[HTC Sensation] Ouzo:
I'm sorry to say that this isn't really anything new. My experience of HTC customer care in the UK is that they are absolutely awful from start to finish. At one point I swore I would never buy another one of their devices, but briefly owning an Acer and a Samsung revealed problems too.

If you search you'll find various complaints on XDA from people who have sent in phones with one problem only to find they have another on arrival despite careful packaging (the screen is suddenly broken, it is suddenly water damaged etc).

It might just be whoever HTC uses to do servicing and warranty work in the UK and not HTC themselves that are the problem. I don't know enough about this so I am only guessing, but I would suggest it might be worth trying to get hold of someone in HTC Europe/Worldwide and asking them to intervene on your behalf. Just emphasize that you only want to pay for the screen to be repaired and that if some gorilla has broken the main board whilst trying to replace it, that simply isn't your fault (I'm guessing that's what has really happened). Try emailing a tech site like Crave for some publicity? If HTC are insisting on charging everyone who sends in a phone with a broken screen which also has a custom ROM on it for a new main board.....well, that's just plain wrong isn't it?
[HTC Sensation] de-v8:
My sentiment exactly.

I'm not expecting a warranty, although it would be alarming to get the unit back fixed to find another fault.

Surely the whole point is that I've requested a repair that I'm happy to pay for, they're demanding on a much bigger and unnecessary repair to fulfil it.

WRONG
