[HTC Sensation] motoi_bogdan:
yes, only a few miliamps. I've conducted some tests at hardware level for this. For example, the HD2 (latest phone i've test using this, here's the topic: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1018833 ) has a standby consumption of about 4-5mA (ranging from 0.2 - 6 mA). Standby means screen off, all wireless off (except gsm), processor in low power state. If i remove the antenna, the phone will still have about 1 line on the network signal indicator. Power consumption will increase with 2-3 mA. But that's about it.

The measurements are being done using a professional multimeter directly linked in series with the phone's battery.

The situation will be different if you use the phone in order to make.. phone calls. With full signal, once you make a phone call the phone's transceiver must begin to emit to a nearby carrier antenna, therefore a lot more power will be used. While having the screen off, consumption will jump from 2-3 mA to about 210-240mA during a call. If you have low signal, you can add another 100mA. (that's much...).

So if you make frequent phone calls or use the 3g networks all the time (always on type of connection) you will increase your power consumption with about 40-50%. Stand by and some rare phone calls won't have a noticeable impact, but actively using 3g and making phone calls.. well, that's another story.

Yes, it's normal for signal to drop a little when on a phone call, especially on poor carrier coverage areas. In fact, the signal is constant but your phone's RF transceiver is using very much power to transmit and due to something called supply voltage collapse (voltage drop occurring when a large amount of energy is being drawn from the battery) the receiving part will lose some of it's sensitivity.

2G signal is actually more stronger then 3G from the user's point of view. 2G was developed first, there are more 2g antennas then 3G ones, they covered a greater area with better antenna density. It's far easier and cheaper to build and install a 2g antenna then the more complicated 3G, 3.5G or 4G ones. 2G frequency emission require less power from both antenna and connecting phone then that of 3G.

as an interesting fact, a dual core cpu phone will have a maximum consumption of about 550-600mA. This is only occurring at full load (all wireless on, benchmarks, full screen brightness, etc). From a simple calculation based on the fact that this measurement was done on a 4V battery (about 60-70% charge) we can deduct that a modern phone consumes a maximum of about 2.2Watts :P
[HTC Sensation] Flyview:
Nothing new on the custom antenna but just a heads up...

I was using 2G only mode since I figured it saved power and usually had better idle cell signal. I was also dropping calls in my house, which I never had with any other phone so I was getting really frustrated.

Turns out, in 2G the signal decreases substantially during a call. This + hand interference = dropped call.

In 3G mode, the signal doesn't seem to decrease during a call. The hand interference still decreases the signal, but not enough to drop the call.
[HTC Sensation] expo1122:
Any updates on the antenna build? I will be modifying my cover with a bigger antenna with a small headphone jack on it for external antenna soon once i buy a 5$ replacement cover off of ebay to use normally when i don't need the modified cover for road trips.

One thing with my sensation is, I have 5 different sets of antenna contact pins unlike the 4 groups you have in that picture

I have a set right above the battery on the right side that look like the ones on the left side between battery and camera. I can see your phone has an indent where they should be.

I can see that my contacts on the back cover are pretty much just copper paint that must link to the antenna inside the cover.. mine are starting to wear away from the pins pressing down. I'm thinking of getting some copper contact paint and beefing them up a bit for now until my new rear cover arrives.

How can I jump to a specific post in a thread? I'm following a Epic 4G Touch development thread for example that has 1800+ posts. I know I want to go to post 1550 but the only way I can tell is to keep clicking the page number that is closest to getting me there. This could take 20 or more clicks and alot of waisted time.

An XDA forum URL masterclass.......

Not that simple, but you can get pretty close to the post that you want with minimal effort. Here's how:

vBulletin generates a unique post ID for every post, which the search engine uses internally.

When browsing threads you don't see it, as you are only moving from one page of posts in a thread to the next.

As an example

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=24387975#post24387975

takes you directly to post #28 of thread 1538864, the member who posted it, might be vaguely familiar, but that's as maybe. The main point to note is that there is no reference in this url to the thread itself, it is only using the post number ID in order to jump to it directly.

If you want to go to the start of the page for thread ID x post number y

use a url of the form

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=x&page=((y-1)DIV 10)+1)

That's the mathematical formula, but in plain English, subtract 1 from the post number, drop the last digit, then add 1 to this value. This is then the page number that contains the post you are looking for.

When applied to the above post, post 28 of thread 1538864 we have: 28 -> 27 -> 2 -> 3

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1538864&page=3

P.S. Had to use code tags above , as url tags tend to strip out the middle of url strings.

Hey y'all, sorry if this is a repost, I was having trouble with the search engine on my phone for some reason. I have a request for an app. I have a couple hundred photos on my sdcard that I would like to rename. I can not find a single app on the android market that will let me select multiple photos by thumbnails and then rename them with a progressive numeric order all at once.

Hey, if you want to open a KML file with Google Earth, i found an app on the market.

"I've developed an app for Android that lets you load a KML or KMZ file into Google Earth. If you are on the Google Android Market, then just search for "KMLZ to Earth". Google might have overlooked it, but aside from the first load of the file failing (Google Earth won't read the URI if it's not running), then my app works perfectly to display KML or KMZ files in Google Earth.

WrightRocket"

Enjoy!
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] KenInME:
I did try this app on the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 yesterday and could not get it to open KML files into Google Earth. Also it runs a webserver damen in the background to do its magic which means it will be a little extra harder on the battery.

So I have a black Galaxy S2 Epic Touch. I Decided I thought it would be cool to change it from black and make it the white one, I have a white GS2 screen with the back housing as well. I got the parts from a broken one my friend had, but the screen is def. good as I have seen it work before. For some reason when i take my black screen off and put the motherboard on the White screen and turn it on, it goes kinda bonkers!

The bottom touch buttons dont work? It simply makes its own random selections on the screen and kinda acts like a completely bad screen. But I have SEEN the screen work perfectly fine before this? When I put the mobo back in my black screen, it works perfectly fine again. Maybe its a sign to keep it black lol but my question IS...

Is there some sort of slightly different hardware in a white screen that identifies that I have a "Black motherboard" installed on it, so it just doesnt work right? Or SOMETHING to that extent? I was excited to switch them but hell...maybe the screen went bad somewhere down the line? Let me know what yall think, thanks guys!

hey there

i installed CheckRom V6 on my S2.

I use Titanium Backup to backup and restore all my stuff.

I also use the "minidiary" app from samsung. TitaniumBackup just backed up the Database - for any reason I dont know.

So i tried to manually install minidiary.apk. That does not work, after the installation android just says "application was not installed".

So i tried it manually; I mounted the /system/app folder, to make it readable (using total commander) and pasted the minidiary.apk there. Then a reboot. ( i thought android might have to scan and add the shortcut to my appdrawer after a reboot)

nothing. Anyone has an idea, how i can get back the mini diary app?

These instructions should work. Just be sure that for #1, you scroll down to the SAMSUNG GALAXY NEXUS (4G_LTE).

Now when i go to use it with my PC its just like any wifi connection right? I refreshed the available networks on my.PC and it would.not find it at all.. am i missing something
[HTC Rezound] trud9340:
Is it a windows PC that you are trying to attach to it? Does the tether start up with any errors in the log?

You should be able to see it just like any other router in your list of available networks.

Edit: Just noticed you said it started with no errors. Hmm.

It should just show up in your available networks.

Try manually creating a connection to your ssid (forgot the exact steps to do this, but its somewhere in network settings).

Also, try changing the setup method to the other available methods (ad-hoc, netd)

I am running ICS 3.5 from Scotts, I can not get Tethering to work. I have tried everything listed. I have tried several ICS Roms and it hasnt worked on any of them. The only time it worked for me was right after I unlocked and rooted on the oem rom with barnacle. Since then it has not worked at all. Wifi isnt working either in ICS 3.5 for me. It is stuck on "turning on". Easytether (USB) is working like a charm though. However I would really like wireless tether. I am coming over to the rezound because i lost my thunderbolt. I want to make sure this phone will do all that my rooted Tbolt would before my 14 days are up... that phone was .. OMG AWSOME. If I cant get it to match up to my old Tbolt in useability, I will go back to another Tbolt.

I am thinking that tomorrow I may try learning how to deal with mainver issues and stepping down to RUU_Vigor_VERIZON_WWE_1.02.605.6_Radio_RS_0.95.00.1013r_3161E_9K_NV_8k_1.12_9k_1.83_V_APT_release_221502_signed

Seeing if I can get it working on that, make a backup, then go clean back to an ICS build.

Any suggestions?

I relocked and reverted back to that RUU I mentioned in the above post this morning, after running the mainver fix. I unlocked, reflashed ra recovery, rooted, uninstalled some VZW bloat and the vzw tether blocker. installed wifi tether and it still wouldnt work, installed barnacle and it works...but it is so slow it is useless really. Easytether still works great. I already miss ICS. I will re-port a clean ICS onto it later this afternoon after ive had time to build out this base one and back up an image of it. I will repost with any progress.

I have unlocked, rooted, flashed the CleanROM ICSE 3.6 from scrosler, and have also been able to overclock my Rezound with SebastianFM's kernel. Everything is working great. The only problem is that I can't get the Mobile Hotspot to work; both the built-in VZW app and the WiFi Tether app that was integrated into the ROM fail to emit a wifi signal for my laptop.

On the VZW Mobile Hotspot app, when I tick the checkbox to turn it on, it'll say "processing..." for about 20 seconds and then un-tick the check mark.

On the Wireless Tether app, I am able to turn it on but once started, a message pops up saying "Tethering started with errors! Please check show log."

I had this same problem a couple months ago when I temp rooted my phone, but a hard reset and un-root did the trick and MHS was working again. However, this is a perm root and flash, so I can't use the same resolution. A hard reset isn't working.

I have the $30 Mobile Hotspot feature added to my plan, so actually paying for it isn't the problem. I'd actually prefer the VZW app to work. Can anybody help me out?
[HTC Rezound] EmerikL:
Don't use Sebastian's Kernel. Use the stock kernel that came with the ROM. that should fix you up.

I'm gonna apologize in advance for the following newbie question, but how would I go about doing that? I have Scott's CleanROM 3.6, and I can't seem to find the stock kernel to flash through recovery anywhere, if it is even a separate file. Is it the PH98IMG.zip file? :confused:

Never mind, I got it! I reflashed without running Sebastian's kernel and Wifi Tether works!!! Thank you!!!!!!!!! :D
[HTC Rezound] EmerikL:
For future reference, yes the PH98IMG.zip is what is used to flash the kernel. Another method to do this is to extract the boot.img from the zip file and place it in the folder that has adb and fastboot in it (on your computer). Then you can flash it via a command line "fastboot flash boot boot.img"
