I'll be ditching my iPhone 4 and getting the HTC one X soon..after 3 versions of the iPhone I'll be going Android. Any tips? things I should do to prepare? my iPhone syncs with outlook for contacts and calendars so I assume that will still be okay but all my music is in iTunes.

ya u can try it
[General Questions and Answers] MWilt:
thank you, very insightful ;)
[General Questions and Answers] AlwaysDroid:
for music, you just place it in a folder on your SD called music.

EDIT: You said HTC one X. No sd. You probably just place songs in a music folder on your internal storage. its easy. One question though, do you buy all your music in itunes or get it through other methods?
[General Questions and Answers] autophone:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redolf:
why are you posting here if you didn't read the installation instructions,search read ,do your documentation before flashing a rom (if you are a begginer)

first your phone has to be rooted(simply root with ) cf root

then install kitchen pro

and then i think you can handle from there:)

[Acer Iconia A500] AliceInUnderland:
So I think there might be something wrong with the power button, when it does work it has a 5 second lag between pressing it and when the lock screen pops up. However, there have been several times where I'm going to bring it out of sleep mode and it doesn't wake up - so I press and hold the power button for a few seconds and nothing. When I press it again it vibrates and boots up normally. So what I think is happening is I'm actually turning it off, thinking that it's having issues with the SOD, and then turning it back on again. But no matter how many times I just simply press the power button it still won't bring up the lock screen out of sleep. So is there some way I can turn it on via the volume rocker?

Thanks in advanced.
[Acer Iconia A500] shaun298:
That is the sleep of death. No on the volume without special programming.
[Acer Iconia A500] AliceInUnderland:
Well, the only thing that made me think it was otherwise was the battery stats - it shows that the tablet has been awake the whole time it's been in SOD...
[Acer Iconia A500] shaun298:
That is what I have found, it is still running. That is why you have to monkey with the power button, the first long press shuts it off even tho it looks to be off. After it is shut down, then it will turn back on. Their are some ics roms that this is fixed in. I used to have the sod, but the rom I am using don't have that problem and I have had that problem with all roms, sept ics.

Hi

Finding, that the battery from the SGW drops to fast, I installed an so called battery saver app. Firstly I tried juice defender, finding out that I need Pro version to really save energy the way I want to -> deinstalled. Next I tried GreenPower free battery saver. Didn't notice, that switching off WLAN and G3/4 is also only available in pro version. Nevertheless I configured everything in order to give it a try.

Today I noticed, that GreenPower... switched on WLAN and GPS and Blutooth and every other power consuming device. Despite disply brightnes. For what?? So I uninstalled the app.

The problem now is, that GreenPower... switched the display brightness to automatic! Even at the widget "Energiesparmodus" ("powersavings"?) the sign for brightness shows an "A" for automatic. I can adjust the brightness at settings (1000 subfolders) BUT the quick cool sliding at the notification bar is not working any more.:mad:

Is there a possibility to switch it on again?

I'm rooted and have Titanium Backup installed with an full backup from last week.

Trying to recover notification bar did not work (screen notification "backup failed" and notification bar was gone:eek:; after reboot bar back again, with no brightness regulation).

Anybody with glue for this?

holydiver
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] andynroid:
Personally recommend to not use a battery saver apps or some sort eg. when the screen is off data connection will be off.

And when you wake the SGW it will again struggle to look for the data connection signal ...that will take energy away from the battery.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Delmare:
What about installing a custom rom like Bionic cow? Had the same problem with the energy on this device with the stock rom and i tried different "saver"-apps.

At least i gave this rom a try et voilà even with intensive use the accu lasts much longer than before. I can't say why this rom reduces the energy consumption, maybe because of the lightweight launcer and some other modifications...

solved

Thanks guys!

It stopped working for 3 days. On the 4th suddenly it worked again. Without doing NOTHING:confused:. I even didn't do another reset. curios

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DJPaxo:
Hello.

I have recently bought a brand new Sony Xperia S. i got it all working when i unlocked its bootloader and rooted it.

now it gots into some kind of bootloop. it wont boot up. that means i cant get into its internal Sdcard. so i cant move any images to the phone so i can install it by recovery mode.. the only mode i can get into is the fastboot mode.

all i need to know is, can i somehow move a .zip file to my phone, when the only mode i can be in is Fastboot?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] gm007:
Flash doom recovery in fastboot then access the recovery and mount the usb to your pc and copy what you want.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DJPaxo:
Thanks for your reply. i falshed the doomkernel but now i cant get into recovery mode.

and its still bootlooping. only mode i can get into is fastboot.

Read the flashtool guide. It allows you to reflash any soft bricked device.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DJPaxo:
thanks foryour reply. i've got into the recovery mode. but i cant install any *.zip from my sdcard, because i cant mount the sd. so i cant move anything onto it so i can install it from the recovery mode.

any suggestion?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DJPaxo:
From this i cant see my device on the pc.

i looked in the device manager on my pc and found an unknown device, called MTP usb device

anyone can help me with this driver?

thanks.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
Download flashtool from the sticky thread and any FTF you like. Unplug your phone and switch it off completely. Then hold the volume up button and plug it back. Install flashmode-drivers.exe shipped with flashtool. Run flashtool, click the flash button, choose your ftf and wait. When it's done, reboot to your new firmware.

[HTC One S] aza314:
There have been a few reports that the One series has poor reception.

For example my HTC Desire constantly has about 7-9dB** lower signal than my old Nokia N79 - I was hoping that the new One S would have better reception, but the forums are complaining about fewer "bars" of signal strength. Unfortunately the latter is meaningless because "bars" are uncalibrated and signal level is highly dependent on exact position and whether the unit is held in the hand or not.

Rather than hearsay, I would like to know if One S owners could do a comparison with their old phone to see if it is much worse.

Using the *#*#4636#*#* code if you could report the signal level (dBm) and the connection mode (3G, 2G, GSM whatever) between your One S and old phone when lying in the same position on the desk*

*holding it in your hand, or putting it somewhere else in the room or changing the connection type or changing the carrier will all invalidate any meaningful comparison.

**

+3dB is a doubling in received power and +10dB is a 10x increase in received power, likewise -3dB and -10dB are halving and one tenth the power, so it's a significant difference.
[HTC One S] Richy101:
OK, here's some evidence for you. HTC One S with Three UK monthly contract sim inserted and Motorola Defy+ with Three UK PAYG sim in. Both phones laid on desk in similar position with nothing to interfere with them.

HTC One S -105dBm (4ASU)

Motorola Defy+ -89dBm (12ASU)

This is pretty much what I've been getting with Network Signal app.

Incidentally, if I put the sim out the One S into the Defy+ then I still get -89dBm as you would expect as both sims use Three UK network. I can't put the PAYG sim into the One S as it's not a micro sim.

Pretty much damning evidence. Does mean the One S loses signal a lot faster when signal is marginal. Doesn't seem to be a great difference when signal is strong between the 2 which is a PITA when trying to show the problem in the Three shop :mad: If I go to York later I'll re run the test's and report back. I'm not sure where to go from here. I'll contact HTC support and see if they show any interest. Not overly hopeful of getting any where with Three customer support?
[HTC One S] aza314:
Thanks for the data point. I'd say it's valid to take them to the Three shop, put them side by side and say look, there's a 16dB difference. (strictly speaking the noise figure of the receiver should also be known, but this is set in the GSM/UMTS specs and should be less than a dB or two difference).

It's been my belief that Nokia and Motorola have the best antenna engineers - all the Nokias I've owned have had great signal reception, despite the fact that the number of base stations was much lower in the late 90s early 2000s.
[HTC One S] Stiflerlv:
I cannot compare to old one, I got micro sim and dont have adapter yet (comming from ebay).

I found that I got alot lower signal, thought as I mvoed to micro sim I changed carrier...

Question - how much signal is needed for "OK", and at which point its to weak?
[HTC One S] aza314:
According to OFCOM the mimum signal level is -110dBm (including some fading margin).

At that level you will get very slow data speeds - I consider anything less than -90dBm as pretty low.

I was in the Vodaphone store and they had SIMs in a One X, One S and Wildfire S - all of these were within a few dB of eachother - unfortunately my (roaming) HTC Desire would not connect to Vodaphone.de, so I couldn't get a 4th reference point.

http://stakeholders.ofcom.org.uk/binaries/consultations/3g_rollout/statement/statement.pdf

Currently I'm mostly interested in 3G reception - if this is poor then the phone will spend a lot of time (and battery) looking for signal, loosing contact, toggling back and forth between 2G and 3G etc. However, need to consider that 3G can exist on both 900 and 1800MHz in Europe. If poor antenna design is the culprit then this may only effect one of the bands, meaning that certain users have great signal, whereas others report poor reception.
[HTC One S] Stiflerlv:
I mainly need this for calls (not so much data) so till 110 Im still ok?

I often get 100+ :/ Lowest I have seen is 90. Returning the phone hoping its glitch
[HTC One S] aza314:
At -110dBm you have very little margin. As long as you aren't walking around the house it should be ok.

But it really depends on the coverage in your area.

NB: the numbers are dBm and negative i.e. a -90dBm signal has a hundred times more power than a -110dBm signal:

10^((-90dBm-(-110dBm))/10) = 100
[HTC One S] Stiflerlv:
nice, comparing to my old HTC Tattoo and test simcard I got from carrier, Its around 15-20 dBm better signal for Tattoo...

Im gonna go for warranty I guess
[HTC One S] jjmai:
Bump. Like to hear how it compares with other phones on the T-Mobile USA network.

Thanks in advance.
[HTC One S] mikea3000:
I was just going to create a new thread on this topic until I found this. I would have to say the reception on the one s is considerably worse than other tmobile phones. Today I traveled to an area with generally poor reception and my wife's blackberry bold 9900 had 1 bar of 4g while my one s had an "x" for not signal at all.

When I used my galaxy s2 in the same exact area i used to get at least 2 bars of 4g. It actually worries me that i get zero reception while our other phones were still on 4g, not even edge.

Can this be fixed with a radio software fix or is this a hardware issue? Im pretty pissed because I want to like this phone so much.

What are the experiences of others?
[HTC One S] ptweasel:
On tmo us, I'd have to say that my signal is the same as it was on my g2x. I'm either in an area with awesome signal (work), or an area with practically no signal (my 100 year old house).

I wouldn't call either situation dramatically different than the last few phones I've had.
[HTC One S] orenfl:
Mike,

On one hand, I did some testing with a galaxy s2 and found ours to be comparable usually, but on the other, there are signal drops issues and the days switching so there still is something odd here.

I also hope to have it fixed by a radio update than a hardware one...

I also like this phone much except for its network issues.
[HTC One S] Richy101:
Well, HTC wanted my phone back in for investigation. Duly sent it back and it was pretty much turned round within the day. All they have done is load the latest software version which in truth if I'd not packaged it up on Monday could have done myself. I believe Three UK released the update on Monday anyway?

Network connection seems to be slightly better but not by a great deal. I'm not sure what I expected from HTC. If it's hardware there seems to be little knowledge of a problem with them and firmware/software they'll only have the latest versions and hope for the best. I'll just have to see how it goes for the time being. I always have the option to sell it and look for something else.

Not right impressed with HTC's packaging back of phone. I stupidly wrapped it in bubble wrap and put it in a box to dispatch. They simply found a box and chucked it in it so it was free to rattle about all the way home. As a result it has picked up a chip of the coating on it's top edge - unless it was done on the work bench. Certainly wasn't like that when it went as use a Case-Mate Tough cover. Not overly upset about that but should I mention this to HTC? Seems a bit of a poor do :confused:
[HTC One S] stoneyjonez:
I finally get my HTC One S TODAY! As soon as I do, I will do a comparison. I work for T-Mobile (until my call center closes), so I have a bunch of phones to compare with and test against.
[HTC One S] mmceorange:
I don't have another (working) phone to compare, but my circumstances make that moot anyway. I have the international One S on AT&T, and since the phone lacks the UMTS 1900 I expected to get lower than usual signal compared to my Desire (A8182, RIP), but hoped that most areas have been upgraded to 850 by now.

Anyway, at work (inside concrete block building with metal structure roof) I am getting between -107 and -88db, (with 10 asu?) depending on where in the building I am. In a larger city I usually get between -30 to -18db, But I do not live or work in a large city.

Even so, so far battery life is way over expectations. currently on 53 hours on a single charge, with 23% battery remaining.
[HTC One S] Reviewers:
I always get 3/4 bars like my Amaze.
[HTC One S] motionUS:
In another thread the box of the tmobile version says it has the 1900 UMTS band. You may be better of with an unlocked tmobile version.
[HTC One S] jjmai:
Just tried at a TmoUS store. My HD2 had about -63dB, HOS on display had only -75~-79dB. Disappointed.
[HTC One S] mmceorange:
I am sure you're right, but I like the look and feel of the "MAO" much much more than the gray/blue. If T-mobile (or better yet, Telus) gets the black version I will likely switch.
[HTC One S] stoneyjonez:
That means absolutely nothing. You don't even know if they are connecting to the same cell site.
[HTC One S] jjmai:
Being in the same spot side by side, and both are T-mobile version of the phones, using T-mobile SIM cards, I'd like to think they are getting the same tower or at least best signal possible with each phone.
[HTC One S] jjmai:
Just tried at another TMOUS store with low coverage (about two bars).

Signal strength ranged between -99~-107dB on the HOS, and around -95~-105dB on my HD2. Though HOS occasionally head better strength, it averaged to be about 3dB lower than my HD2.

YouTube crashes in miui rooms I've tried, official one actually, does anyone have a clue about what's going on?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
are you using the miui kernel or another custom kernel? sounds like you are using a custom kernel with BIGMEM that depends on the rom to support the BIGMEM.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Billchen0014:
I was using air kernel, maybe that's the problem. Now switched to matr1x.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
is it working now?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Billchen0014:
It does, but matr1x also support bigmem, I think air kernel forces, while matr1x adapts.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
theres two ways to do it.. either the kernel does it and expects the rom to support it(thats how it was in the beginning) or the kernel does it all(most have adapted it this way by now, i think). its just a matter of adding some lib files to the kernel so that it lets every rom work with BIGMEM.
