[HTC One X] katamari201:
HTC brought it upon themselves by claiming that 2012 would be the year of fewer phones and higher quality products. Rushing out the first Tegra 3 phone with bugs is rather unacceptable. You can go on and on about early adopters and such, but these phones are not aimed at the tech crowd (thank Apple for turning expensive high-end phones into mainstream consciousness, the lack of memory slot and removable battery should also clue you in) and with all the ads blaring and giant posters everywhere at launch, it better be ready for prime time. No one is gonna "wait" six months after the bugs are squashed to get a fully functional phone. A new Android phone will already be out, and the old one forgotten. People are gonna want the best right now, not the best six months ago, when they renew their contracts or sign up for a new plan.

This is reminding me of the Nokia commercials that are invading my Hulu and Youtube watching. Goes on and on about how we are constantly beta-testing phones. Their's a lot of truth to that, even though the ad is also trying to tout the Lumia 900, which has bugs of its own. At least they are offering the phone literally free to anyone upgrading, to compensate for the reported LTE connection problems.

What is HTC trying to do, score points against the Galaxy S III by releasing first? Afraid of direct competition? How about releasing a fully quality tested product instead of a .9beta product? When the Galaxy S II was coming out, there was a ton of testers from around the world showing the gradual progress of the phone. The Exynos went from a laggy mess to silky smooth. Benchmarks shot up big time. Framerate hiccups in the camera were fixed. Then FINALLY it was released. HTC has the order all wrong. You test the phone first, than release it. Not the other way around. They should be giving freebies to early adopters for being their guinea pigs. It's not gonna compensate for all the lost time and frustration for regular folks who just wanted a working phone though and thought this was a safe choice, it being high-end from a reputable company and something supposedly as good as an iPhone.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Fusion777:
So in general I get phenomenal battery life out of my lovely i777. Full day on a single charge, frequently with lots of juice to spare.

I am using the Titanium backup "freeze" TetherManager approach to get me some tethering without having to activate the obnoxious AT&T plan.

What I've noticed is battery life ends up being 1/2 of what it was if I activate tethering, even if I shut it off again right away. 'About phone' merely reports 'Android OS' as a top CPU user - looking higher than normal - and SystemPanel doesn't give me much better.

Has anyone else noticed this behavior?

ps - I used to use the WiFi tether app here http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/ but I found it was pretty glitchy .
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] oddspec:
Install better battery stats it on this site soe where cant link at the momemnt and see what is wakelocks u have killing ur phone or flash a rom that has tethering built in
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
That's weird... I've never had problems with tether continuing to hog battery beyond when I turn it off.

Of course I haven't used a UC base since November.

It sounds like tethering might be a trigger condition for the dreaded BT-AMP bug... See my "known battery drainers" reference in General along with tymong's "horrible battery life" thread in General.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Fusion777:
Installed Better Battery Monitor. Regarding installing a ROM with tethering already present, I am actually kind of a TouchWiz fan, so prefer stock if I can roll with it. And technically, tethering *is* already present :P But I get your meaning

Entropy I checked out your known offenders post, very informative. I can't say for sure if this falls into that but maybe the battery monitor can help find out. SystemPanel reports for CPU usage within System Processes:

"events/0: 7.6%"

"suspend: 7.5%"

Here's a screen grab of the events/0 system manager graph:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
Skip straight to the Wireshark part of my post...

I would suggest an I9100 Touchwiz-based firmware like XWLA4. IMO that was the pinnacle of Gingerbread on this device. Or you can try something ICS-based now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Fusion777:
I think I may just do that Entropy.

I feel like a jerk a little for mentioning that even after a reboot or two it continues to exhibit the behavior. Which doesn't really jive.

When I didn't tether for many days, my battery life was back to super awesome. And ,just to prove it to myself, I tried tethering today and sure enough the faster drain began. But after shutting down/rebooting, it continues. It almost seems like I have to pull the battery.

It may be time just to do ICS as you (and others) say.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gwhitevt:
I had a Galaxy S Fascinate (Verizon) - after I rooted it, I discovered I could not rent movies from the Android Market. I "un" rooted it, (return to stock) - and found I was still unable to rent movies because it still considered the to be rooted.

Now I have a Galaxy Nexus - I would love to Root it and try some ROMs, but want to avoid this issue.

Has anyone successfully returned their Galaxy Nexus to Stock,and rented movies from the Android Market (Play)

thanks,

gw
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] amonfog:
I know how to fix this since i've been in a situation the other way around (wanted to get us possibilities in market from europe)

Clear cache, appdata and forceclose the following apps from settings/apps/all apps:

Download manager

Google account manager

Google services framework

Network location

Package installer

Google play store

Then reboot your phone, open play store and accept the terms and conditions again. Now Google will re-pinpoint your device location based on your sim-cards company and your position in the network. Good luck!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FredFS456:
An easier method is using OTA Root Keeper to temporarily unroot your phone. It should work for renting movies.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bluh5d:
The question that I have is does anyone know where if you rent a movie and download it for viewing offline what directory it is stored in on internal memory or the file extension?

Thanks,
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bluh5d:
Ok I finally figured out where it is stored. So I temp unrooted my phone made purchase and then selected download for offline viewing. So in the directory there is a file

application_4jSa8szMNjs.wvm

so i brought my root back to get into that directory then where i was stumped i figured it would be wmv mp4 3gp or whatever with drm protection but no its wvm I have never heard of wvm. so anyways I moved the wvm file to a different directly. Temporarily unrooted my phone . Then went into the google play movie app and it said that the download was missing. so i know I have the proper file. Now my question is does anyone here know anything about a .wvm file ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thracemerin:
What are you trying to do with it? if you're trying to keep it beyond the rental period or copy it off the phone then this probably applies to any answer you would find useful:
[Motorola Atrix 2] ed20910:
I have tried a couple of roms recently. Both times my wallpaper changer app has replaced the rom's wallpaper. I have searched and not seen an easy way to get the original back. I really don't want to have to reinstall if not necessary. Any help?
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
I can offer you two approaches:

1. Long press on home screen and choose Wallpapers > Wallpapers and click Reset to Default

2. Using Root Explorer (or similar), navigate to /system/framework and "View" the framework-res.apk - navigate to framework-res.apk/res/drawable-hdpi and find the file called default_wallpaper.png - copy and paste it to your sdcard to use as you'd like...

EDIT: Maybe i'm not understanding you properly - does your wallpaper changer app (btw, what does that app do besides change wallpapers?) possibly swap out the default_wallpaper.png file mentioned above? If so, you can just browse to the same file location in the full ROM file you originally downloaded, using 7zip (or the like), and grab the original wallpaper that way..
[Motorola Atrix 2] ed20910:
Found file with explorer. Must not have looked in right dir. Wallpaper changer will change wallpaper at assigned intervals; hours, minutes etc. It pulls images from designated folder. I . bored with same wallpaper day after day. Its nice to wake up each day and see what my wallpaper of the day is. Thanks for the help.

Place the .apk(s) in your mnt/system/app folder then reboot. Make sure your system is in R/W status.

Use titanium backup and restore the apps directly from your backup.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Akiainavas:
Install Mobile Odin and Mobile Odin's Flash Kernel - if you can't find proper kernel file for your device, buy Mobile Odin Pro and it'll do it for you.

In mobile Odin, select "select file" and browse to all 5 files included in ICS repack. After that, hit "flash". Wait untill it reboots in the recovery, after it's done - do a data wipe.

You're done.

I downloaded the ICS LP1 Repack, i got Mobile Odin too. We're supposed to install AbyssNote Kernel also, right? But when is that?

1/ Launch Mobile Odin and select ICS Repack (directly the TAR archive, it works)

2/ Flash WITH wipe, then install AbyssKernel?

3/ Install the ICS ROM we want.

I downloaded iMilka CM9 & ICS Stunner (will try that first). Please anyone confirm this is the right thing to do in the right order.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhisahara:
No. Modify your steps like this here-

1/ Launch Mobile Odin and select ICS Repack (directly the TAR archive, it works)

2/ Flash WITH wipe. Reboot and let rom settle. Then go to recovery. Wipe the cache/dalvik and data

3/ Install the ICS ROM we want. Wipe the cache/dalvik and data and reboot.

Why would anybody need ICS repak if you are on GB? If you are on GB rom, root it(either directly or downgrading and rooting with relevant CFRoot files - PC Odin). directly install ICS ROM of your choice via CWM(as rooting GB rom will install CWM auto matically if you have chosen right CFRoot files)

You lose root if you go directly from GB to custom ICS, hence the Repack step.

Don't try using in-development ROMs without knowing beforehand exactly what you're dealing with: they're not ready for daily use (don't ask for an ETA!), and WILL present problems.

Now I'm about as big a novice as you can get, but wouldn't it be still simpler to work with the straight One S RUU instead of porting a port? And wouldn't it be harder to port from the One V RUU due to the difference in screen size and CPU type (single core vs. dual core)?
