[Samsung Infuse 4G] zantrax:
I have recently noticed that my battery is inexplicably draining faster than normal.

It turns out after having the phone by my side that after locking my phone for about 15 min the phone screen turns itself on and off constantly.

I am currently running the latest release of CM7.

If anybody has a solution for this help would greatly be appreciated.

Thank You.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] can73kill:
I have the same problem

My Motorola Triumph does the same thing. It's running cm7.2. My battery drain is pretty substantial too.

UPDATE(8-13) - My problem was the push application gps fix which im assuming you may have. If not try to download some sort of log app and study what is running while screen off(till) screen on.

Hey, This is my first post so hopefully i didnt pick the wrong section to write in :)

So here it is.. A while ago my phone started acting crazy.. voice command started up.. turned off, started up again.. MTP started ( like i was plugging in USB cable) on and off and on and off again.. This was after i had rooted my phone for the first time.. but i was on stock rom at that point when all happend..

Now when im trying to charge my phone it takes like 30-60 sec till it starts charging.. same when i unplug the phone, takes 30-60 seconds for the phone to realise that there is no cable connected to the phone..

Can't turn off the phone.. when i turn it off its black for a few seconds then the samsung logo pops up and the phone boots up again.. and some times when i turn off the phone the battery logo appears and it shows that the battery is over heated..

This is what i have tryed:

- Re flashing, alot of diffrent roms

- Factory reset

- Format System, sd card, data

- Flash back to stock rom

Thx / Wrix

I remember seeing this issue in a few threads last year. Check this thread out as it lokos to be the same issues they were having http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1174291&page=6

It seems some had to return their device and others were able to get it working again by cleaning out the micro usb port with a toothbrush. Worth trying. If nothing works, maybe you will have to return it. Hopefully not though
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wrixituz:
Thx alot.. Will take a look at the link you posted and see if there is something i can do to fix this issue.. hopefully i wont have to send it in to repair cuz i have rooted it.. dunno if samsung can see that if i use USB Jig ? hopefully not but will try with toothbrush to see if it works!

Again thx alot for the advices :)

Just make sure you reset the counter and you should be fin returning it. :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blue265:
Your device should still be under warranty. I'd wipe, flash the stock ROM that you had on it when you bought it and use the jig if you have one. Then see about getting it returned. Good luck!

I just got back from B&H Photo & Video in NYC (9th ave and 33rd St) and bought a pair of Klipsch Image S4A for 79.95 (+ tax) along with a few other headphones for me and my wife.

On their website the headphones go for $99.00 but when I was at the store it was listed as $79.95.

http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/820668-REG/Klipsch_1013812_Image_S4A_In_Ear_Stereo.html

I'm not a fan of these in-ear headphones but since everyone has been raving about these I will give them a chance. The store offers a 30 day money back refund if I don't like them.

I'm not sure if they would honor the in store discount online but maybe you could call them and ask.

Just an FYI, their store hours are weird. They close after 1pm on Friday and are closed on Saturday.

So apparently google's nexus tablet will be made by asus. Personally i think it will be the asus memo announced at CES.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] aznmode:
I do hope it is the 370t. 7 inch plus T3 best of both worlds.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
I'd buy one, just for the hell of it, at $199. Hopefully Google will help subsidize this thing so they can hit that price point. A $199 ICS 7" Tegra 3 tablet with full Google services could be a killer. With the right promotions, it could compete nicely against an "iPad Mini."

Not that Android tablet makers (or Google, for that matter) have demonstrated an ability to effectively promote their products. But hey, there's always a first time! :D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Itaintrite:
Nothing's official yet. And as much as I like my TP, I seriously hope Asus won't be the one. None of their tablets has been perfect. So unless Google take over quality control, this could be a disaster.

Samsung is the way to go, but I guess after two hero phones, it's time to switch?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] stereotada:
I thought the transformer 1 was well received and one of the best android tablets you could get one it was out? Also, asus only has 2 tablets on the market.

And I dont think you could say any manufacturer has ever put out a tablet that has been perfect. A case could be made for the ipad with the lack of flash and its restrictions and what not. Its all based on preference.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
I would buy one also if its that cheap. Best band for buck. No tablet maker would have something that cheaply princely with that much power. It should be a no brainstorm to choose that over a kindle fire or nook color. I can't believe I got so impatient, right before I got the prime, that I couldn't find OG transformer for the black Friday price that I almost considered getting an acer100 7in. Or a kindle fire..lol. so glad I didn't. I did have my eye on Toshiba thrive bit heard too many horror stories on its battery life. I loved the fact it had full size USB ports. Although it had tegra2, the display model in store seemed to have decent speed to it. But it wasn't priced cheap enough. Then I heard about Prime for only 100 more and way more powerful. There was no turning back once I had my mind set on Prime.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] aznmode:
Dont you hate word predict? lol.

I would buy it even at $250. As far as acer, I have an acer a100 now and its got leaked ICS, rooted, with buildprop changed to a500. Even has mod to make your micro SD as your internal. So you're not limited to 8gb or 16gb anymore. ICS made a huge difference. Smoother than prime in some cases like home screen and app drawer transition. Even stock browser is smoother. With the build.prop change I can see and play 90% of gameloft games. The only thing really sucks about it is when I HDMI out to TV it gets laggy due to only being dual core and ofcourse the battery life is only about 5 hours. I'll post a video in a bit so you can see how smooth it is.

But once the 370t comes out of course I have to get that to replace the a100.

Might take me a some time to record ICS but heres a video I made a while back when it was still on HC. So you can imagine how smoother it will be on ICS.

Everybody seems to forget that Google has bought Motorola mobility for a reason in addition to buying patents.

With Motorola, Google can build its own handset and its own tablet.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
This is true but would show favoritism over other Android manufacturers. Causing them to pull out of Android scene. Which would hurt Google in the end. So its smart for Google to choose someone else to make new Google nexus device. It'll show they not favoring Motorola. Asus will likely be the creator of new Google Nexus tablet n it'll be powered by tegra3. With new reports now of Qualcomm S4 chips having manufacturing delays and setbacks, alot of new android devices that were going to use that chip will be delayed Now. Which leaves the door wide open for Tegra3 to continue being the top most powerful Android chip out there.

Does the Beats Audio sound mod really make a difference with music playback or is it more of a placebo effect?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Raistline:
It truly makes a difference. It artificially increases the output of all sub 120hz frequencies so that the bass sounds louder and heavier.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Jdom58:
It's a gimmick, "Raistline" explained it best:

""My reasoning is as follows.

On the Beats Audio HW side, it is overprices POS that lives on name brand along, much like BOSE. This is not to say the Hardware is bad, but rather that it is highly over-priced for what you get and can often get better quality for 1/3rd or less of the MSRP if you buy other brands.

As for the SW side of things Beats audio artificially increases the the lower end of the audio spectrum through audio "enhancement" algorithms which actually colors the sound and effects not only the Lower Bass but Mid-bass as well and imho ruins the music. It ruins it by changing the sound signature drastically from the original. Basically from all I have seen through wave-guide charts is that it adds or amplifies all frequencies under 120hz to be at an equal or higher level than the highest output for a single frequency. In short, it makes all music sound heavy in bass whether or not it was the artists original intention.""
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Master&Slave™:
Flash Paradox and you will see it in full effect..well a tweaked effect. On my sensation its horrible but I pulled all files and combined them with DSP manager...

Now you can toggle it on or off via DSP settings. :-)

I tweaked it so it sounds much much cleaner and you can tweak it to ur liking in DSP Manager
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] JhonKa:
My personal rule of HiFi. If you need EQ or any extra sound 'enhancers' you just need some new speakers/headphones.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Mitallust:
Not always true, sometimes different hardware will react differently, plus the environment you are listening to makes a difference. That being said, artificially increasing EQ values across the board usually means your shortfall is hardware related, like you said.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Muff Burner:
I use professional audio equipment all day everyday. Beats does nothing amazing and in most cases makes music sound worse. If you have crappy monitors or cheap headphones, its possible for beats to push the already mediocre lower end more. The only problem is it makes music that is already clear sound muddy. Best thing you can do is listen to quality music (FLAC, MP4, AIFF, WAV, 320kbs). Raising the response of lower frequencies in horribly compressed music (96-224kbs & vbs) is only gonna make it sound worse over the whole spectrum. If your looking for a quick way to make your Bieber or Lil Wayne pirated copy sound better, this will do just fine for your needs. For true audiophiles and sound junkies, beats is nothing more than a cheap gimmick marketed at people who just wanna look cool.

[Milestone 2 General] algarues:
After trying CM7 I really appreciated the simple initial boot sequence

during which the led flashes first blue then green and then boot starts

this allows to call the clockworkmod recovery at startup by pressing volume down while the led is blue

How is this particular boot tool called?

I would like to try to install it on top of the stock rom.

A sideline question is what is actually "fixed" in the fixed sbf that must be flashed on top of CM7 on gingerbread M2 phones?
[Milestone 2 General] Anonymous_:
It is just bootmenu (or I can say newer version of CWM).

This is how you proceed:

1) root your rom

2) install droid2bootstrap

3) install Bootmenu: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1196590

thank you

what I can see is that if I flash the fixed sbf on top of the official stock

my scripts for memory management work and also if I run "top" on the terminal

I see almost no com.motorola.blur etc. running

Does anybody know what else is in there?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] phgtr:
Hi, I have a S4GT with Calks 2.9.1 w/EL29 installed. I've been reading over and over that Wifi is without a doubt the more battery efficient radio out of the 3 (Wifi, 3g, 4g). However, while I believe that I have great battery life, I've noticed that my battery drains noticeably faster with Wifi turned on. At home I get a great Wifi signal and a terrible 3g connection. I would say on idle, the battery drain is twice as fast with Wifi. Wifi is set to Never turn off when activated.

I also did some testing, and turning off 3g data while Wifi was on didn't show any noticeable improvement. I also tried turning on Wifi in Flight mode, and noticed that the drain is actually worse than it is on the normal mode with 3g activated.

I would like to keep my Wifi on while at home or work. Any ideas what's going on here? I've been searching for answers without luck.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] I_FLY_Z3R0:
This is weird indeed. Wi-Fi uses around 1/3 the power of 3g. I know I get great battery life with my Wi-Fi. You could always try flashing a new modem

Turned on GPS..

If I stand at the furthest point in my house and do a speed test with GPS disabled I get

34ping 2.30Mb/s down 3.82Mb/s up

I enable GPS and do another speed test..

11ping 17Mb/s down 4.44Mb/s up

Although this has, for me, fixed my Wifi my GPS is non existent, I am yet to get a single satellite with GPS test while in the middle of my garden.

Let me know if enabling the GPS helps with Wifi speeds for any of you
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] DaGiff7:

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] L_Mo:
You're sure enabling GPS didn't simply make speed test select a more appropriate server?

It would be better if folks tested wifi speeds over their local network, I think.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Erusman:
Interesting. Is this with the latest firmware? Play with Wifi Analyzer as well. Check your Wifi -db signal. See what is going on with that.

Odd that just enabling GPS and not enabling would get different results. Maybe something with the latest firmware.

I can't test because my prime is totally modded. External antenna etc.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] robertg9:
My GPS works (marginally) . Works better with the GPS fix mentioned in other threads. However, getting a GPS fix from a "cold start" sometimes takes a while. For example, Decided to try it on a short grocery trip. When I finally got the fix (already at the store), it said "2050 sec to first fix"....Once it got that first fix, it worked fine the rest of the way home.....Again with that fix applied....although I marginally see sats without the fix.

Another side note: I happened to notice while it was searching, a little info message appeared that said "Best results are obtained if the unit is horizontal".

But sometimes that first fix can be a bear to get.

Good luck,

Bob

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Moist:
Sorry for the noob question, but how do you enable GPS so that it stays on in other applications?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] robertg9:
Other than the check boxes in LOCATION Services, there is no other control. When you open an app that can use GPS, you'll see a little icon in the notification bar that says "Searching for GPS"

If the GPS system were totally working, you would never lose the signal...The only time you lose it is if it is marginal.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] bimbobo:
What is the impact of GPS on battery life, if it does not work and it keeps searching without finding anything?

Battery will be drained very very quickly. I am sure.

Think about it :-)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] SirGarry:
The GPS will only find your location if an app asks it to do so. So if the GPS icon isn't showing next to the clock the GPS is not in use.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Gage_Hero:
Not sure any of you have noticed... Prime doesn't have a gps.conf file on it... I added it last night and got 8 of 13 locked... from inside... by the window. Check out system/etc/gps.......

One other thing I noticed.. in build.prop my wifi.country = is set to GB even though I bought the transformer in Canada... can someone check and see if they have anything different?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] HiddenSanctum:
I've always wondered if the Wifi issue was a software problem. My wifi is "okay". The most annoying thing is it randomly completely disconnects from my school's wifi network and then it shows that there is no wifi available. The reason why I think its a software problem is because if I disable and re-enable the wifi it starts working again with me being in the exact same location.

Kind of odd...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] beavertank:
I saw this on previous firmwares, but never on the latest one. It also seemed, in my experience, to be related to the chrome beta. If I brought that up it would immediately stop any data being transferred over wifi and would then lead to a disconnect.

I never did uninstall the chrome beta to see if that fixed it entirely, but updating to the latest firmware did seem to stop the issue.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] buxtahuda:
Suppose I'll hop on the bandwagon and give it a go.

It's hard for me to get any real speed degradation without actually dropping below the connection threshold with these rural speeds, but I'll try.

My wifi works pretty good after some build.prop tweaks, i would suggest that before modding the tf201. Basically, i added net.tcp.buffersize.wifi with some values and net.tcp.buffersize.umts with the same values 4096 ,87380, 256960, 4096, 16384, 256960

Get a build.prop editor from Play Store (obviously must be rooted), open it, click Add Property, and under Name insert "net.tcp.buffersize.wifi" and under Key insert "4096, 87380, 256960, 4096, 16384, 256960" then Add Property again with "net.tcp.buffersize.umts" and "4096, 87380, 256960, 4096, 16384, 256960".
