[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benjymous:
Yes, that's perfectly normal - the battery voltage can go up slightly when the load reduces, and is also dependant on temperature. You can see why voltage isn't generally reported to users!

Also, li-ion batteries don't drain in a linear fashion - they typically discharge like this:

- When fully charged, and nearly flat they drain very quickly, but in between the voltage drain is much slower.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spunker88:
Was just going to post something similar to the chart above. At a constant load and temperature you could probably see a direct relation between battery voltage and percentage, something like the chart above.

So thinking about flashing cyanogen on my Gnex and wondering if anyone has feedback from having flashed both?

I'm currently running AOKP and love the rom, it's stable and fast. I'm more or less wondering if cyanogen is currently as stable?

anyways, thanks for your feedback
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] codesplice:
I'm planning on sticking with AOKP at least until CM9 gets to an actual release (rather than the nightlies). I test out CM9 every week or so (hooray for Boot Manager!) but so far it just doesn't have the feature set that I've come to rely upon. Right now, AOKP has a much better selection of tweaks and features, and I've found it to be damn near rock solid.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RTContent:
I've been using CyanogenMod since the first release a couple months ago. It's always been just as stable as the kangs but lacks the customisation. I still prefer cm9 though, and anxiously await future updates.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] marceldy:
imho, codename is really good as well with a combo of fracos kernel ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Q.Entity:
I second that :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Third, never had an FC, crash, freeze, or reboot. BAMF is another keeper.

If you're referring to a Kang build of CM9, Kangs are built from the same source, but may contain "cherry picks" or changes that haven't been officially merged yet and the builds aren't official. This can occasionally lead to issues; just something to keep in mind.

CM has a lot of custom features that other ROMs don't (profiles, quiet hours, unrooted operation, highly customizable auto brightness (more levels than are available in other ROMs), more intensive colour customization, etc...) but lack (currently) the visual customization that other ROMs have more of.

Each ROM has it's +'s and -'s, depends what YOU want.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thebobp:
I've been using rob43's mod, adds a lot of features into cm9, so the "best of both worlds", i'd say.

sent from my Terran Command Center.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
I'll second that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] spectre85:
Thanks for all the input guys, I did actually flash it, seemed very responsive and I didn't have a problem with it BUT like it's posted above, the features aren't there yet. So I went back to AOKP M4 and will stick with that for a while longer. CM9 felt smoother so once the features are up i'll probably jump ship :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheBiles:
CM9 is currently lacking in the customization department. It's nearly stock.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] smalss:
LIQUIDSMOOTH! Amazing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wonshikee:
If I wanted lack of customization I would stick to stock, which is disappointingly lacking in customization.

AOKP won me over. Got it running on both my phones and love it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] glennforever:
I prefer AOKP

Hi Guys,

just to share with you, my point of view after flashing endlessly all kinds of ROMS, upto 8th July 2012,

AOKP and CM are both AOSP based and very similar.

however i clearly feel AOKP is better in terms of Performace, batterylife and importantly CUSTOMIZATION.

a ROM needs to have a 'CUSTOM' feel. AOKP gives its users so many customization options. Please note that similar customizations can be made on CM aswell though file tweaking.

However my advise to some1 who is flashing their phone constantly in-search of the Perfect ROM, i suggest you stick with AOKP and understand that it is the best now.

AOKP is based on AOSP, raw power. Good customization and smoothness in operation.

---------- Post added at 07:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:06 PM ----------

me too! Swept me off my feet!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Valkillmore:
AOKP is the one I keep reverting back to after I setup and try new ROMs and I save a backup of them.

Even tried Jelly Belly and really liked it, but it was way too bare bones for me. I can't live without the customization AOKP offers.

Jelly Bean and AOKP should be a great combo once that projects starts. :)

ICS not good enough

my phone stuck when call ppl.. it takes whole lot of time..
[HTC Desire S] pttynan:
Can someone please help, I'm truly stuck here.

I have followed the guide here..

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1460713

I have managed to remove the revolutionary logo, and all was good. I then attempted to install the following RUU...

RUU_Saga_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.1_Radio_20.28b.30.0805U_38.03.02.11_M_release_177977_signed

Went through all the prompts but the program "hung" at the sending screen. After around an hour I pulled the usb cable, yay the phone still boots. However I was still at the old HBOOT (cant remember the numbers 6.0.0002 or something :D ) and with the custom rom.

Though this might be a problem with the RUU... NAY.

I have since tried he following..

RUU_Saga_HTC_Europe_1.47.401.4_Radio_20.28I.30.085AU_3805.06.02.03_M_release_199410_signed

RUU_Saga_S_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.5_Radio_20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04_M_release_219480_signed

RUU_Saga_O2_UK_1.31.206.1_Radio_20.28b.30.0805U_38.03.02.14_M_release_178935_signed

All with the same results.

So I downgraded the hboot manually to 0.98.0002 and tried them all again. Still no luck.

The reason I have tried the different RUU is that it was originally from carphone warehouse. Their phones are generally unbranded so assumed it would be a standard euro ruu.

Please help.
[HTC Desire S] pttynan:
Think I might have posted this in the wrong section, so will repost in the general forum. Sorry.
[HTC Desire S] Jack_R1:
The section is right. The problem is strange, though.

If it was wrong RUU, it wouldn't hang, it would just refuse the flash with error.
[HTC Desire S] pttynan:
Thats what I was thinking, just to be sure I have used "fastboot getvar all" and it reports version-main: 1.28.401.1.

So the euro ruu should work fine.

Could it be that I'm coming from cyanogen? Would flashing anothe rom, then attempting again fix the issue?

Also It doesn't actually hang in the sense it becomes unresponsive. It says "sending ........." the dots keep reaching the end then starting again if that makes sense :)

Also the phone is stuck at the black htc logo whilst this is happening. When the usb cable is removed, it goest back to bootloader with only "ruu" displayed.
[HTC Desire S] pttynan:
Just noticed also that when running the ruu, any of them. It reports the current software as version-main: 1.36.841.3. Really confused as the only ruu I can find to match this is...

RUU_Saga_Telstra_WWE_1.36.841.3_Radio_20.28d.30.0805U_3805.04.02.01_M_release_184558_signed.exe
[HTC Desire S] pttynan:
this is really starting to bug me now, have tried the above ruu and still no dice. I have flashed to cyanogen, and the stock prerooted roms. Still same problem.

Can anyone help!! Got to return the phone in 2 days to carphone due to a faulty speaker :(

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Barry (NJ):
I bought

one of these

in white and it's a soft silicone rubber. The color is a somewhat transparent white, think of very watered down milk. I imagine it will be a bit of a pain going in-n-out of jeans pockets as it's soft and grippy and I imagine it will come off the phone rather easily during the process. I haven't tried it with jeans yet, but that's my impression. The case does come up and over the edge of the glass screen, so the screen is protected somewhat when the phone is placed face down on a flat surface. I don't think I'd recommend it, but it was less than $2.

P.S. Well it goes in-n-out of pockets ok, but the way the on/off and volume buttons are configured on this case, makes them far to easy to accidentally get pressed.

I also bought

one of these

in white, and it's a nice firm but flexible, TPU material. The color is a true white and fully opaque. It fits the phone nicely, and the holes all line up well. There may be a problem with the Headphone jack, as the hole is the same size as the hole in the phone and the plug may not fully seat, though the cheap headphones I have here at my office worked fine. Also it is somewhat evident where the mold comes together as there is a little bit of flash at the seam. The case does come up and over the edge of the glass screen, so the screen is protected somewhat when the phone is placed face down on a flat surface. All in all a pretty nice case for $4.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Barry (NJ):
I also got a clear S-Line type TPU case from

this guy

for $1.99 delivered. Both form and function are just fine. It's a bit thicker than the other two, Has some grippy texture along the sides of the long edges. All in all another decent option.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Barry (NJ):
Well I got 2 Mercury Jelly cases from

this guy on ebay

, not bad for $7.88 each delivered, but I did find them just a little cheaper the other day. The cases are nice, I got 1 white and 1 black. The white case is a bit of a warm white, not cool and bright. The black case is a deep dark black, and it shows finger prints very easily. All the openings line-up well and they seem just a bit over-sized, this will make plugging in the micro USB, and headphone plug simple and they're sure to get fully inserted without any interference from the case. There is a little flash from the molding process present, but nothing crazy. Nice cases, but I'm not sure they're worth nearly twice the price of the second case mentioned in my first post, which really is very similar to these.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] borijess:
Thanks I ordered one black and white a couple of days ago. Thanks for the review.

Sent from the TermiNOTEr! ;-)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Barry (NJ):
OK, new case arrived today. This

Plastic Case/Holster/Kickstand

, for under $9 delivered, is of decent quality with a nice satin texture and feel. The snap-on back cover is typical of the plastic snap-on hard covers, in that the top and bottom ends of the phone are not really covered. It goes on and off the phone securely but without any difficulty. The holster will accommodate the Note in a basic TPU case as well as the delivered hard case, and probably other hard snap-on backs as well. The phone can go into the holster either face-in for protection, or face-out so the holster can function as a stand for watching movies etc. Not sure I'd recommend the holster for someone who is very active though. When I hold it with the unclipped side down, and give it a good shake, the phone will begin to slide out of the holster, but for regular walking around I think you're plenty safe. Over all a nice buy for the $ ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Barry (NJ):
Another new case arrived today. This time a

basic S-Line style TPU case

in white (a nice bright crisp white), $2.95 delivered. This one is different from the clear S-Line I purchased earlier, it's a bit thinner, and the mold seems a little sharper, more defined. Installation and removal is firm, but not difficult, and the overall fit is nice and snug. All the openings clear the ports, but some of them aren't centered well (camera lense, flash, S-Pen), and that lowers the sense of quality of the case. Over all a nice buy for $2.95 ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Barry (NJ):
So I picked up 3 of the

Cruzer Lite Androidified cases

from Amazon. They are running a promotion so the 3 cases cost me $19.80 or $6.60 each I got white, yellow, and clear green. The clear green is probably the coolest looking, as Andi really pops nicely. The yellow is a bit drab, kind of NYC Taxi yellow, not as bright as I'd hoped, the white is also not a bright white but a bit warm in tone. These are probably the tightest fitting TPU cases I've gotten so far. I'm not worried about damaging anything taking them on or off, but they're very snug fitting. They come up and over the screen glass slightly so offer that protection. I also like the fact that there is an extra little bit of TPU over the one corner that many cases leave fully open for an antenna on some versions of the note, offering 4 corner drop protection. The only criticism I can offer is that in general, the openings don't line-up perfectly. Nothing is blocked, but the buttons/ports aren't centered in the openings. A small quibble, true, but for a case that lists for $19.99 I'd expect better.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Barry (NJ):
Well, I've got an update on the Mercury case. The inevitable has happened, my Note slipped from my hand while I was getting into my car and it hit the pavement. Of course, the first part to touch the asphalt was the corner that is open for the antenna on the Euro Notes. The damage isn't bad, not even visible with the case on it, but there is a small scratch/ding in the plastic bezel that surrounds the screen and a small scratch on the chrome where it meets the bezel, so I may stop using the Mercury case. It's a shame, because the Mercury has, in my opinion, the highest quality look and feel of all the TPU cases I've tried.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhisahara:
Was it an OTA or KIES update u did?

U rooted and on stock or any custom rom ?

If not rooted....then u can still try hitting volume up + home + power buttons all at the same time and holding them pressed till the time the same N7000 logo shows up and leave the buttons then. The phone should boot into stock recovery. Now try clearing the cache there if the option is available. If nothing works then either wipe/format your note (warning all data will be lost except the internal/external sd card) or reflash the firmware through PC odin using Dr Ketan's guide from the stickies post in the development section of note forum here on xda.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Army92:
So it was an OTA update. Did you tried pressing volume down + home + power button for booting into download mode?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noteN7000:
ya tried that as well but it said custom OS can cause critical problems so canceled it...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhisahara:
vol up+home+power should work. Try that again and keep pressing them till the time the n7000 logo shows up and leave them immediately after it.

if u are not able to get into recovery then the only way for you is to flash via odin.

The driver do help with kernel development. A lot have been out for a little while unofficially but the official ones will help. Not sure if it will help with hw though
[EVO 4G General] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
The qualcomm drivers are going to help enable true HWA in the kernel for video both camera and video graphics as the official drivers have the binary to enable HWA embedded in to activate it at the kernel level, all a kernel is is a bundle of code and drivers that control the hardware and its interaction with the UI

[Motorola Droid Bionic] okishead:
I though I share this site with those who don't know.

Mugen Power is a reputable aftermarket battery manufacturer, and you will find many good feedback, reviews and recommendations about Mugen batteries on XDA.

The main site is here: http://www.mugen-power-batteries.com/

I am myself a Mugen product user and I would like to share once again how amazed I am by their customer support and social network persence, like for example if you follow up Mugen Power on facebook http://www.facebook.com/MugenPowerBatteries, they give 7% discount on their stuff. Many fans on facebook represents brand loyalty to clients, and you can see many fan comments and simple questions which are answered accordingly. If you have problems with you battery, it drains quickly, it charges slowly they exchange without questioning. Worldwide shipping is free of charge. Overall it is worth noticing.

Concerning Verizon Moto Droid Bionic Mugen has 2 products:

Its a 2000mAh Extended Battery, it fits the original cover. Slightly more powerful than original just enough to resolve the issues that might accure with factory battery.

And for extra power there is 4000mAh Extended Battery which enlarges the phone with an extra replacement backdoor, but improves the battery life at least 2.5 times.

I hope this little review will help you in your quests for battery replacements.

For questions, ask their facebook or write directly on their site, I always got my responces there so far.

I have ordered myself the 4000mAh battery for testing, and hope to post user experience results as soon as the battery arrives.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] mercdoc:
If you could, let us know if that battery will fit under the OEM extended cover. If so it would make a nice upgrade. :D
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Noob_In_Recovery:
that is exactly what i was going to ask. let us know please
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dellenrules:
I purchased the 2000mah mugen and it does fit under the OEM door.

Battery life with it though was actually less than the stock for me.

At times it would get really hot and just drain out when in use.

I keep it charged and use it as a spare in case I need it when taking long trips.

This is just my experience with it. Yours might be different, but as of now, I don't recommend the mugen 2000mah one.

Haven't tried the 4000.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] okishead:
That should not be normal. I had same sort of negative experience with my other phone (galaxy nexus); i have written Mugen about it and got my apology and warranty replacement without questioning that is why i have mentioned my total respect to their customer support earlier.

If your warranty is still valid you should definitely write them a note about your problem, maybe they will help you with how to root it or something, try this one:

http://www.mugen-power-batteries.com/contacts

---

@mercdoc and @Noob_In_Recovery

the 2000mAh version fits in original backdoor as @dellenrules says

and the 4000mAh is a big one, it shall arrive with extra backdoor to fit in the phone, i cannot wait mine to arrive!!:D
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dellenrules:
The mugen 2000mah battery in actually should last longer.

Because of how it's designed, it gets hotter quickly. As a result, it kills the battery a lot quicker.

When ever I get a phone, replace the battery with a mugen.

When I'm working in the office, it's pretty much "death by AC." My phone can last me all day with no problems.

When I'm on the road, at the gym, or any place where it isn't cool, the battery dies quickly.

No it isn't just a bad battery. I purchased 2 and they both behave the same way.

The stock battery is better for me since I'm not always in the office. I use the mugen as a backup and keep it charged and ready to go when I have to take those long trips.

I already get about 15 hours our of my stock battery on a single charge.

Not too worried about battery live at the moment.

Thanks for your concern.

Mugen Power 3600mAh Extended Battery for Samsung Droid Charge / US Cellular Samsung G

Comments of Mugen Power Battery from Facebook user Anlyn Bankos:

HLI-i510XL 3.7V for Samsung Charge: This battery was a complete waste of money. It was a gift and my dad seriously over paid for a battery that won't hold a charge. It's to the point where every day now I have to plug my phone in during the day b/c my phone says "battery low", I plug it in and "wow look at that - I'm charged to 100%". Imagine this happening 5+ times a day. I can't be without a charger because if I can't plug the phone in immediately, it dies. If I do plug it in, the battery miraculously recharges to 100% in mere seconds, only to go through the whole charade again 10 mins after I unplug the phone. I have dug out the original battery and am going back to that. Crappy product.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] whyandroiddude:
Thanks for the site information, good news for the facebook discount too, i did not know that.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] unbesorgt:
I bought a Mugen 2000 mAh battery about six months ago. During that time it worked great, average time 16 - 18 hours according to Badass Battery Monitor. (For comparison, my standard 1735 mAh battery lasts about 12 hours. I mainly use WiFi and 3G, turning on 4G only when needed.) Then last week, the Mugen started falling off a cliff. It would go from 80% to 40% instantly and then drain to 0% in just a few minutes. This happened again and again. Finally I asked my wife to test it in her Bionic, just to rule out problems with my phone, and sure enough it behaved the same way with hers. So for $50 I got a decent increase in battery life but it only lasted 6 months. YMMV of course. Now I'm using the stock battery again and getting the standard 12 hours. I ended up ordering the 2670 mAh extended battery from VZW, which is currently on half-price sale for $25. It should be here tomorrow. Probably won't order from Mugen again in the future.
