I use this app for night time reading. It works great and I didn't know about having multiple widgets with different darkness settings. Thanks for the pro tip!!!

I'm getting just shy of and over 4 hours screen time, depending how long I'm actually talking on the phone for that day. Not using this app btw, wifi at home, LTE everywhere else
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] littlewierdo:
Actually, for me, the screen is the number 3 item for killing battery, trumped by phone calls at number one. And I dont even spend that much time on phone calls, usually less than an hour per night (I wish I could find a solution for this besides not making / taking calls).

Under Settings->Display->Auto Adjust Screen Power, I have this DISABLED.

This helps significantly with the 'greys' on a dark screen (to the best of my limited comprehension, this is being called black crush?) AND virtually eliminates the 'banding' I was seeing initially. Strangely however, I had to disable this option and it took a day or two before the banding almost completely disappeared (I was seeing it ALOT on the Google Market initial grey screen before it loads in the ads).

I use Auto Brightness.

I also have Settings->Power Saving->All Options are DISABLED.

Anyway, you might try disabling the power saving and auto adjust screen power and see if that helps with black appearing grey using the app you are mentioning.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Coffinfeeder:
Use the 15 toggle mod to turn of all cellular data when you don't use your phone. You can still receive messages/calls but there is no reason to leave mobile data on while at work or you're not using the phone.

I usually leave school with around 90% battery left and I'm on school from 8-1. All because I leave data off while not in use.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] PeartFan40:
LED display? The Note has an SAMOLED display, which doesn't use a backlight. Each pixel is self illuminating.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] PeartFan40:
He said "anal" :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] techntrek:
There are several major types of screens used in flat screen TVs, monitors and phones - LED, LCD with LED backlight, LCD with flourescent backlight, plasma.

I did not say "LCD with LED backlight". I clearly said "LED". AMOLED is one sub-type in the LED family. "SAMOLED" is not. ;)

You are correct that dimming the screen won't help with most LCD screens (either type of backlight), although there are some LED backlit models on the market that divide up the screen into zones of backlight and intelligently adjust the LEDs and LCD pixel opaqueness to save some watts. That method also helps to create darker blacks.

But for LED screens, like the Note, dimming them WILL save power.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] techntrek:
I don't think you are gaining anything using your method. I'll assume you get up at 6 am in order to get to school at 8. So by 1 pm your phone has been unplugged for 7 hours and is down by 10%.

I only loose 1% per hour , with wifi off and data on (others here report the same). After 7 hours my phone would only be down by 7%. If you are loosing more than that either you have a wakelock problem or maybe you get bad reception in your school, which will also kill your battery faster.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] augustomaiden:
Awesome App!!!

I was starting to worrying about the short battery life on this phone, but with this app, is so much the saving that worth it 100% having it. Thank you so much for the advise!!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] supac:
what a dickhead
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SayWhat10:
1% per hour with LTE on? Sounds bogus

For that to be possible you must never turn on the screen during that whole 7 hours plus no background syncing must be going on. The LTE radio still drains with screen off

You know at 1% your phone would last 4days without a charge right?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] PeartFan40:
What's with all the flaming? He asked a simple question, which does not require someone insulting him. Grow up.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] PeartFan40:
Agreed. Not even my Blackberry did that well. My Note averages about 1% every ten minutes with data and WiFi on. Bogus...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] techntrek:
Coffinfeeder's post was about standby losses, so my reply was about standby losses. So yes, with the screen off. I do have syncing on, and I do only loose about 1% per hour in standby - if and only if I have a completely full charge when I unplug.

Its been discussed on other threads how if you plug in the night before and your battery is mostly full already the charging process will end early in the middle of the night - and it won't trickle charge the rest of the night. So you can start the next day at 97% and that number will quickly fall, even on standby. Forcing it to top off in the morning (unplug and replug) will give you much better battery life over the day.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] techntrek:
When I'm actively using mine, 1% every 10 minutes is what I see, too. About 6-8% per hour depending on what I'm doing. Streaming music via BT will use up to 15% per hour, although most of that time the screen is off.

Can I have beats on cm7?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Wow, it took about 10 seconds to find it using the search function.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1525226

Not sure if people have tried it on our device and CM7, or what the result may be. So definitely do a nandroid backup first.

Just my personal opinion, Beats is a marketing gimmick and total crap. Beats does the same thing as DSP Manager or Volume+, but with absolutely no customization options. The assertion that one equalizer preset is going to make all music sound "better" regardless of the genre of music, and the playback equipment (in particular, type of headphones or speakers) is a completely false one. Only an idiot would believe that this somehow makes the music sound "as the artist intended".
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noufel:
So I should stick with my volume plus then
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Unless you are some kind of Beats fanatic, I'd say yes. If you are presently using Volume+, then you already have something that is more than Beats. There is absolutely no customization options for Beats, its simply off or on (or in some cases ALWAYS on! See next paragraph).

Also, on every custom ROM I've tried which contained Beats (Affinity, RCMix Energized, Beatmod Blissense) has the same bug, where choosing no enhancements or equalizer, will still revert to Beats or Dolby whenever you relaunch the music player. There is also an annoying Beats logo in the notification bar, which often does not go away, even if Beats is disabled, and you have not used the music player for hours (or even kill the music player). Not sure if the flashable Beats I linked has the same issues. But if so, they are annoying.

Of course, if you do a nandroid before installing Beats, you can always try it. Then revert to the nandroid, if you don't like it.

Of course its all a matter of personal taste, and plenty of people seem to like Beats. But its preposterous to me that suggest that one EQ setting with a bunch of bass boost is going to sound good for all music, regardless of the type of music and the earphones/speakers being used. For instance, the stereo system in my car is already bass heavy, and adding Beats on top of it sounds horrible to me (even if I turn down the bass setting on my car stereo).
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] newskate9:
I used the search feature :D and found the answer to how I get reader working (rebloating) on my CM7 updated NT. Now, seeing all those cute little apk's sitting there, I'm wondering if I snatch a couple of those, can I sideload them to my rooted Xoom, and get to use the read-to-me books on that device too?

IF YES - when which ones exactly would I load up?

I have the BN app loaded on Xoom, and can see/read my books/magazines, but it won't even attempt to download the read-to-me books.

EDIT: This has been answered. Can be deleted.
[Nokia Lumia 800] BlitterTwisted:
I keep getting told an update is available on the live tile, but when I go into the marketplace nothing is there! Or I get told there's 3 updates, but there's actually 2.

Might be a coincidence but it's been happening since I updated to the 12070 firmware via the cab sender. Although hard to see how low level code would affect it.

Is anyone else getting this?
[Nokia Lumia 800] tjramage:
I've been notified of updates with the marketplace title and haven't had any issues since updating via cab sender. I used it on a newly flashed 11501 firmware.
[Nokia Lumia 800] BlitterTwisted:
Hmmm I must have a rogue app causing it.

It's doing it repeatedly. Updates work fine, it's just the notification count that's wrong.

At work I have HORRIBLE ATT reception and my phone constantly toggles through data modes/no data.

By halfway through my day my battery is beat to piss. I can charge here at work on my laptop but have always refrained unless necessary because I know

1) each battery has really a limited number of good charges

2) wasn't sure if keeping it on a charger all day could hurt the phone at all

can someone with more insight let me know if leaving my phone on the charger during the day can actually degrade it

another thing ive noticed is my phone will actually get an extra bar or two of service while on my laptops charger..... weird but its like the antenna gets extended.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nicuu:
I have the MAGLDR 3.7.0 (stable) installed. I installed about 4 months or so ago, which you helped me with.

I haven't used it much at all, only for calling and sms-typing so to say. Well, it works pretty well for that. Unfortunately, I experience alot of problems.

1. I accidently put away the menu (3 buttons) away, and had to turn off and on, so I just rebooted and it got stuck. In the boot-menu, I got "Fatal fail" in red. This was when I had been surfing through the internet for only 30 minutes or so. The phone get's very hot (beneath the battery) and starts freezing and yeah.

Also, I downloaded a game, after 20 minutes it got heated a little bit and froze. Took out battery, power on and it says GO GO GO, but it is stuck. You'll have to wait probably 10-15 min so the phone cools down, for then give it a try and you can get it on. Little freaky, to be honest - at least first time when it happend!

Also when I went into internet, it froze.

What can be the problem? I mean, it works just fine for calls and sms-typing, but for internet and apps and so on, I experience so much trouble it's annoying.

Can you please help me? Have you experienced these problems? Thanks ALOT for all inputs and suggestions you can give me!

---

Also, now after I surfed a little (10 min) plus started Angry Birds after 5 min, it freezed.

Now after pulling in and out battery several times, I can't get it on. I waited 5 min, got it on, but got stuck at the main menu after inserting SIM-code.

What should I do? Really frustrating and annoying!! PLEASE HELP!!!!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] htccraze:
What I would

try

is to first make a back up. Then download a different ROM. Repartition your phone with the correct

amount the new ROM needs to work properly. Then reinstall MAGLDR. Our phone should be MAGLDR V1.13, if its

3.7.0 as you say that may be your issue right there. After you reinstall MAGLDR install CWM & then finally the new

ROM. See if this helps out with the problems your having.

Its a long shot but there's not much (it seems) you can do with your phone now. My phone gets hot while playing

some games and this is a known issue but it shouldn't be freezing up so much and as often as yours has been.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Whatdoyaknow:
HD2's are know to overheat. The test is if they work in the fridge (sealed in a plastic bag, zip bag - take care that it does not get damaged by condensation)

If it works in the fridge the bad news is it's typically problem with the solder joints (bga balls) of the motherboard

Some get to the point of not booting past the first flash screen

It can be fixed by a good workshop with the right gear

See this thread - don't bother trying the heat sink idea of the first few pages as even the author says it does not work
