[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] tohno:
hi all

it's the 1st time i ever used a stock rom (stocklite v5 )

i used to use lewa but lately there is some real serious issues with it and i gave up

so one of the biggest difference is that...the screen which cm based rom are more better looking that stock based ...at least from my point of view ...CM has better saturation and less pixelated ...is there something cm rom has that enhances screen looks or it's me?

oh and what is the perk stock has over CM? as far as i know stock don't have CM settings ..=(
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] glenn23:
im concerned more on battery life so i like stock rom........

Hi, just wondered if anyone has managed to get psx4droid working on their tablet S?

I have got fPse and it works great but apparantly psx4droid supports some games that fPse doesnt.
[Sony Tablet S] BSEmil:
Same here,

i would like to know this too...
[Sony Tablet S] eduong503:
I got it working...had to do a backup on my phone and export it to my tablet using titanium backup. Works great. Also, I have snesoid working as well. I will try to post the titanium backup file later. The resolution is quite pixelated but decent.
[Sony Tablet S] ross231:
the sound on Fpse is not working for me, i payed for it.

I recently just flashed the latest Siyah Kernel. I notice that my 'Display is 75%' on battery. My brightness settings is already set to manual its on 20%? whats wrong?

and is it normal after flashing a kernel, will my battery rapidly decrease cause current its down to 80% from 100% for only 2 hours. Im not a heavy user.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] warrez:
no its not atleast not for me... what rom are u using? are u sure there isnt any apps that is draining ur phone? are u sure ur phone goes to deep sleep?

use there apps to check:

betterbatterystats (wakelocks)

cpu spy (deep sleep)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnBonchie:
currently im using stock rom 2.3.6. gonna try out those two apps now
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnBonchie:
yes my battery does go into deep sleep.

for wakelocks.

there are alot of android system apps that has a count of more than 300 -.-

so what do i do?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
You let your phone run for 8-10 hrs (overnight, after a period of use, etc) then you have a look @ wakelocks in BBS. 10 minutes isn't going to tell you anything.

I'm also using Siyah 2.6.13 & am having no problems whatsoever.

Edit to add - Also read the BetterBatteryStats thread, particularly the first 20/last 20 pages. Once you've read the thread & let you phone run for that 8-10 hrs, you'll be able to ask in the thread what details/screenshots you'll need to post in order for the guys who post regularly in the thread to help you. They're the experts, far more likely to get the help you need doing it this way.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnBonchie:
yes boss :D
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rich-wong:
I am currently having some issues with Siyah kernal on Wanam's ICS rom. battery drain is significantly higher for some reasons. I also had a lot of FC and reboot freeze, cpu profilers such as setcpu will crash the phone etc. I also noticed the same thing for the 2.3.5 roms onwards.

anyway my personal experience at the moment. I am reverting back to the leaked ICS kernel until the kernel can be sorted.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Siyah doesn't support any ICS ROMs. Says so right at the top of the first post of the Siyah thread.

EDIT: looks like GohkanMoral recently (like TODAY) posted on his website about an alpha version of Siyah that supports ICS... but it's not released yet, and it IS an alpha.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aaronkatrini:
Hi, I got my phone in a condition that was booting with the Htc logo and the four triangles on the sides. Got it fixed with the help of this forum, by installing on my Pc the Htc drivers and than I did a Ruu of 2.3 (Gingerbread) found on the HtcDev website. Not really happy with the overall performance of Gingerbread on my device...

Do you think downgrading to 2.2 will increase its performance?

Is there a way to Ruu 2.2 after Ruu 2.3?

Thanks in advance :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
Go S-OFF with revolutionary, flash downgrader from AlphaRev-website and then flash 2.2 RUU. For more information use the search.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
might have to use the RUU twice.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
Please enlighten me, because I cannot see myself why the RUU might have to be used twice.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
Oh it's not some black magic crap,

This just happened to me though:

Had 2.3 and hboot 1.02, S-OFF'd, flashed downgrader, ran RUU, then it was stuck on HTC screen, ran it again and it was fine. Maybe the process just didn't work successfully the first time.. just thought I'd mention it just in case :P

[HTC Sensation XL] Unbeatable Guy:
I was wondering if HTC SENSATION XL will get the IMAGE SENSE like htc one x it includes (ALL WILL KNOW BUT ANYWAY)

1. Image Capturing with recording

2. View any video we can too Capture it

3. Continuous clicks ...:):)

Thanks in advance ,

Unbeatable Guy :)
[HTC Sensation XL] Unbeatable Guy:
Any answers?
[HTC Sensation XL] ajftl:
Doubt it. Not same camera sensor.
[HTC Sensation XL] Loushi:
what the sensor has to do with taking pictures while recording a video? or with the continuous clicks?

they just updated the camera software n i guess the Devs will find a way to move it to our XL..

hopefully :)
[HTC Sensation XL] mr1029x:
Doubt it, too. The XL Camera it's not quick enough to snap the picture like that
[HTC Sensation XL] Unbeatable Guy:
It should be on sense 3.6
[HTC Sensation XL] Loushi:
in fact, HTC one while using continuous clicks is canceling the "auto focus" option and if u remove this option on ur XL camera and put "no review" u'll see how fast will it be

i believe it works with XL
[HTC Sensation XL] drunkdrunk:
yeah I think XL will get it in future..its based on software.
[HTC Sensation XL] jimbo.levy:
The XL will not get any kind of ImageSense update/port/whatever, simply because ImageSense is part of the firmware as well as a piece of exclusive hardware built into the phone.
[LG Optimus Black] alex28s:
Does anybody knows how to rewrite the flash? I'm not talking about the rom. I spilled some water on the table and my camera is not working anymore, the SD-Card is not recognized and the phone won't vibrate. Plus it has some lag in the dialer app.
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
What do you mean with rewrite the flash? You at least should give it a bath in Isopropyl alcohol, but dont forget to dismount almost every removable part and to put some hot glue on the microphone, cause it gets destroyed otherwise, but google for isopropyl alcohol bath, or water damage alcohol, or something similar.

Here is one thread about it: http://www.fiscalgeek.com/2009/06/ff_water_damaged_cellphone/

And dont blame me, if you make any mistakes and screw your phone completely, but I already revived one phone like this.

The most important steps are remove diplay, put glue on the microphone, so no alcohol can come in and remove speaker (this also gets destroyed by alcohol otherwise), but read more how to's about it, and you will find the most frequent mistakes and so on ;)

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gtg93:
Hi,

I've looked around but I can't find a relevant thread for this, sorry if I've missed it and this is a duplicate thread.

Is it possible to root the S2 using a onetouch app such as Z4root or Androot?

I've read that neither of the two work on my current firmware vesion (gingerbread 2.3.5) so wondered if there were any recommended alternatives?

I would just go ahead and try the other two regardless but I did this with an older phone (Galaxy Portal) and the root failed and the phone just played up after that.

I'd rather not be flashing different ROMs on it at this stage as I'm awaiting the proper release of ICS before I play around with custom ROMs. Any help appreciated.

Thanks

Yes read the Z4root post.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rich-wong:
Odin is your easiest and best bet to get root.

after that I personally use CWM manager on the link provided above. DO NOT download ROM manager from market and use it to manage updates. In the past the ROM Manager installed a CWM which cannot read internal or external SD.

Once CWM Manager is installed simply download the custom kernel from Android Dev section (in zip format) then go into CWM Manager and select "Update" and bingo, it will do everything for you automatically

[Desire HD General] Bornin:
The day before yesterday my DHD's touchscreen went all dead on me.

Since warranty was allready over en probably void too:D I was forced to get a new phone.

I was in doubt off what new phone to get but HTC kinda grew on me. So, I'm moving over to Sensation(XE) threads.

allready running Virtuous ICS on it now so tings are going very well :p

Just wanted to thank the DHD community for giving me a great time. I've learned a lot from all of ya and had loads of fun.

See you on the other side :p
[Desire HD General] HC4Life:
U bought an HTC Sensation XE?
[Desire HD General] shaky156:
The other side would he a htc one x or one s lolz
[Desire HD General] Bornin:
Yeah I got an XE, I'd rather have waited for a one or X to but you know how it is. I just cant live without a decent smartphone, sad but true :o
[Desire HD General] HC4Life:
I understand u. And u already have rooted your phone?

I ask u cause i was thinking to buy one too...
[Desire HD General] shaky156:
Thats awsome! Congratz on the new phone and thanks for beta testing for me :) (i might have you confused with someone else :s)
[Desire HD General] Bornin:
LOL, did I root my phone you ask?

What you think? Its all done, S-off, CWM etc. the whole deal. Piece of cake BTW.

Must say its a nice device. Only Battery is allready a big relief compared to DHD
[Desire HD General] HC4Life:
May i ask u where u bought it and how much cost it?
[Desire HD General] matthew33:
how do you find it compared to the desire hd, with regards to display quality and performance etc?

[Desire HD General] Bornin:
I got it on a Tmobile 2 year contract. had 2 pay €100,= for the device

It's a bit early to say but I do like the screen and it;s resolution.also batterylife is a lot better and of course its a lot faster than DHD.

I must say it's a lot more comfortable to hold in your hand then DHD. A bit smaller so it fits better in an average hand
[Desire HD General] Bornin:
Don't buy it for the headset though, it kinda sucks to be honest. the cord is too short, earplugs are too heavy and sound is nothing special about.

Glad I got http://www.hi-stands.eu/shop/index....n=article&group_id=10000245&aid=12308&lang=NL a while ago, pretty sweet sound :)

Hi:

At first sorry to all for my poor english, so I´ll try to make me understand.

I have recently instaled the custom rom (my first custom rom ;) The end V3 at my Samsung Galaxy Ace.

I love the look of my phone, and it works great, very fast.

But I have a problem endomondo runtastic cardiotrainer don´t work.

All aplications cause a forced closing.

I wish I could put this query in the thread of development, but as I have little time with you I can not.

Somebody can help me? It´s very strange that any aplication of this kind, don´t work, so I think tha could be a problem with the setting of cyanogen, I hope so.

Thanks to all.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] evil_penguin:
Did you wipe your data before flashing the rom ?

Anyways

Solution is reflash !!

Go to CWM

1 wipe data (factory reset )

2 wipe cache

3 advance >wipe dalvik cache

4 flash the Rom

5 reboot :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] lumarub:
I did again all wipes, and endomondo and runtastic still not work :(

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xArtanis:
If I leave my phone charging over night, I wake up in the morning finding it off. Which is bad because my phone is my alarm, ha. This only started happening after I flashed WEUI and then ASNET MIUI. Any ideas on how I can fix this? I'm running MIUI ASNET 1.4.4 with the latest glitch kernel.

Captivate random shut downs

Lots of people have this issue, seems to be a hardware related under certain conditions, like when the battery is fully charged, wifi on.

Google "Captivate random shut downs" and you will find a lot of info.

I have a Captivate running Android 4.0.2 (ICS).

I will continue searching and just asked "Captivate Keep Alive" app developer (see "Play Store") if it is compatible with ICS.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RootTheMachine:
If you're on Glitch, try bumping up the voltage of the lowest frequencies by +25 mV.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xArtanis:
Thanks for the support. It's been about a month and I've learned to live with it. I've tried Captivate Keep Alive for a few weeks and it hasn't been much help. My main concern is having my Captivate survive the night. Nowadays, it'd turn off and the battery would discharge despite being plugged in.

As for Glitch kernel, I'm using Semaphore at the moment but I'll try that out. Thanks.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cfmarque:
In case you are still looking. I think I'm in the same boat as you. Captivate Keep Alive worked fine for GB, but all ICS roms (and kernels) introduced the shutdown during charging. The fix is this app : Wake Lock. It does the same thing KA but it doesn't turn off when the phone is charging. Problem with Wake Lock is that you gotta control it manually.

So hopefully in the future they'll be a KA version with that option.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xArtanis:
Thanks so much for the response. Maybe I can finally use my phone as an alarm again, ha. Which option do I choose in Wake Alarm? I'm going with CPU on, screen off, keyboard off at the moment.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cfmarque:
Yes, those are the same values I use.

Also shutdowns over 80% battery.

I'm with ICS now with "captivate keep alive" app turn on at any time I go into idle state and my phone dont shutdown.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] M973:
I was using "Captivate Keep Alive" some on GB Roms, but was appearing incompatible with ICS, as the app, though still present, would turn off before it was supposed to.

---------- Post added at 07:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:29 PM ----------

I had raised my min CPU to 200 for shut downs.

Saw this post, I've never changed any of my voltage settings, never OC's, etc. I'm presuming in NS Tools, presuming from the "volt" tab, but am unsure of what to change to bump up min frequency.

Thanks
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rophiroth:
I even put min CPU to 1000 and nothing happens XD but Im using keep alive to 0% and no more shutdows (also use less battery than i though :P), but having some bugs... after a while my phone dont receive more calls and cant make xD but i think that is some problem with modem)

It can take that long sometimes.

For me its all the time . After 50% charging takes forever
[HTC Sensation] RGunturi:
If I completely discharge my phone, it usually takes anywhere between 4 and 5 hours to charge it back up to 100%. This is assuming that I do not use the phone as it is charging.
[HTC Sensation] TriTopaz:
Same on my Sensation. But I´ve heard from People, they charge in about 2-2.5h...

Its crazy somehow :(
[HTC Sensation] blue-yu:
The fastest method is to turn off phone and charge it. But it also depend from charger to charger. For example I had a faulty usb cable and phone never did charge while powered on. I discovered faulty cable with "CurrentWidget". It displays in mA current charging. It was always drawing power from phone. After changing cable it was charging.

Conclusion is higher mA the charging is faster...
[HTC Sensation] Boomer120y:
What blue-yu said, to a point.

The wall charger that came with my phone is faster than using the usb cable.

Also, powering down the phone so its doing as little as possible while its charging will help.
[HTC Sensation] philje123:
Yes. A USB port on a computer is limited to 500ma. The wall charger can output 1000ma (double the USB).

Phil
[HTC Sensation] rich2x:
I have noticed with generic charges, it can take between 3-5 hours as well. With a OEM HTC charger, it usually takes me about 2 hours from 10% to 100%.
[HTC Sensation] blue-yu:
I have found on market 2000 mA charger. Since HTC recommend max 1000 mA, is it safe to try the oem charger?
[HTC Sensation] gefilus:
I use wall charger original what comes in sensation box. On pc battery monitor says i need 8 hour charge . Starting to think something is wrong. Before i was desire s and that charging from 10-100% in like max 2 hours
[HTC Sensation] liamstears:
Official chargers connect the 2 data pins together to let the phone know it is connected to ac so it draws the full 1000ma if data pins are not shorted the phone will think its connected to USB and only draw 500ma

Use a battery app to check if your charger is registering as ac and drawing the full amount

"Battery mix" is an example of an app that will tell you
[HTC Sensation] RussianBear:
the aftermarket battery (chichitec) that i'm using has been chargign up considerably faster than the stock one. it also provides a lot more usage time.
[HTC Sensation] Tinderbox (UK):
On my mains 550ma SE microusb charger it takes me approx 3hrs from 0-100% , or 4hrs from notebook usb, according to battery monitor widget pro.

John.
[HTC Sensation] LPChris47:
I usually charge my phone to full after it drops below 30%.

It always takes my Sensation 2.5 hours via wall charger.
[HTC Sensation] krazy_about_technology:
It seems the battery charging time as well as boot up time has something to do with the recovery you use.

With Clockwork mod recovery, my bootime was 7-8 minutes (I tried clearing cache partition and all, with fast boot disabled) and battery charging use to take 5 hours.

Since two days, I have installed default recovery and now my boot time is about 1 minute, and charging time is around 2-3 hours. This time also, i have fast boot disabled and cleared cache partition after installing the recovery.

Can anybody else do this experiment and let us know the result here?
[HTC Sensation] gefilus:
Dunno about recovery and bootup. Bootup for me is about 25-35 sec from cold boot, 4ext touch recovery. I will try that ap from amrket and i will see if there is something
[HTC Sensation] krazy_about_technology:
How many apps you are having installed?
[HTC Sensation] gefilus:
5 games , big games . And some apps whant i just need . Twiter and facebook dont count. Im not a app fan , and gps navigation, total count of apps 107

I know from videos, that microUSB plug is angled. When cable is plugged in, does the cable go towards the top of the phone, or bottom. I think it is top, but myself would prefer bottom.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Nimche:
I haven't tried the cable which came with Xperia S but still using my arc's cable. That goes to bottom and you could rotate the flap totally toward the top if you like.

EDIT: so I took the Xperia S cable and cable goes towards the top. still ok if you rotate the flap. Maybe going up makes more sense since it will be out of your way at the bottom. If you don't like it get an arc's cable. ;)
