[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] phoenixprogress:
I've been wanting to root my phone but I'm having some problems. I tried following the guide here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1219246

But it didn't work seeing as how my DInc2 is still in froyo 2.2.1, and revolutionary only works now with 2.3.3.

So now the problem is updating. Apparently Verizon thinks I have a defective unit, because when I got to the software update in the settings and hit check new, it says service unavailable (my service is just fine). It's been doing this since I got the phone, and I got it about right after it was released. Verizon tech support had no solution to this problem at all.

I've researched online and can't find any solution, and tried resetting my phone and that didn't help either. Anyone have any ideas or a link to a thread I didn't see? I just want to root my phone, whether I install gingerbread first or find a way to root it in 2.2.1 I don't really care. I found a link to revolutionary that worked on froyo but that was on megaupload so that's gone now. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

You should be able to download a stock 2.3.3 ROM and flash it.

This has directions and a link for 2.3.4 http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1599767

The important thing is the rom file must be named PG32IMG.zip and on the root of your sd card. To boot into the boot loader, turn the phone off, turn it on holding the volume down and power buttons down until the bootloader menu comes up. You may need to pull the battery out when the phone is off to get it to boot to the boot loader. I've had to on my phone.

You shold be able to find a 2.3.3 rom on your own.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tmlhodge:
You could put this file on your sdcard (not in a folder)

Then boot to bootloader by powering off, then hold volume down+power

Once it asks if you want to do then update select yes and dont interupt it.

MAKE SURE ITS NAMED: PG32IMG.zip

Heres the link below.

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkness122:
hey there, as the title says, I'm interested in the kindle fire.

I have a nook simple touch, rooted, but want to be able to get a bit more of a true tablet experience.

1) hows battery life? I mostly intend to actually read, view pdfs, some online browsing, and note talking. essentially, does the fire battery do well w a lot of usage?

2) how is cm7 or ics coming along? do these improve battery at all, or hurt it from stock?

3) why did you chose your kindle fire over what options you were considering?

4) is there an "updated" model coming soon that might replace the fire?

thanks guys!

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brainchow:
1) usually lasts me a day and a half with an hour of two of reading, some youtube here and there, and checking email and stuff, with cm9.

2) cm7 is pretty much done and perfect.. battery can go for a day or two depending on usage. pretty much same with ICS depending on what rom you're running. hashcode's doing some excellent work on getting a full ICS experience, all that's left now is charging indicators and powering off from within the OS.

3) previously had a nook color, just found it too damn slow. sold the nook for $150 and got a fire for the same price. i was thinking maybe flyer, original galaxy tab 7, or playbook, but development is pretty dead for those. i just wanted a good, fast, stable aosp experience.

4) rumours are flying around about a 10 inch fire, but I personally think that's really unlikely.

if you really want a 7 incher (one-handed usage, won't kill your hand like an ipad or another 9-10 inch), i would say go for the fire now. if you don't mind waiting, see where the galaxy tab 7 2 will end up in terms of development. for $50 extra, you get pretty much a fully-fledged tablet out of the box. with a custom rom, that's sure to dent the fire's sales.

Hi,

I have done a search but couldn't find anything regarding the actual selection of the 850MHz band in any ICS based ROM. I recall in 2.3.x, I would be able to get to a service menu through *#*#0011#*#* and select what bands/frequencies I would like to use. Ever since I've been on ICS, the service/secret menu codes don't seem to work....is there any method of manually selecting which bands to use?

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zorxd:
*#*#0011#*#* does work on ICS (at least with CM9, it displays which band is in use)

Just flash the KG3 modem and you will be sure that 850 MHz is working.

The junk usb cables from ebay doesn't provide much power for charging..

Trust me I've been through this and did alot of testing couple years back. None of the ebay usb cables managed to provide more than 200mA on my old phone and couldn't power on any of my usb hdds. Only the official ones from htc and those that comes with a usb hdd are quality.

If you're only planning to transfer data around then I guess it doesn't matter.

[HTC One X] sh500:
Very true. I ordered a 2m cable from eBay a few years back and plugged in to an OEM HTC wall charger. My device - HTC Desire would take more than 10 hours to charge (that's without using the device whilst charging).

It seems to be difficult to differentiate between good and bad *long* [charging] cables. I am now thinking of going for a branded one such as Lindy to see if that is better, alternatively perhaps a 'fixed cable' AC wall charger.

Try a decent quality cable from somebody like Cables2Go or (like above) Belkin, much better quality and can carry much more current :)

Dave
[HTC One X] Supaiku:
I'm sure there are many different cables sold on ebay...

But yes, long USB cables tend to have a lot of resistance. Actually, they're generally not even very good for data transfer...

That said, a quality USB cable should be fine. In any event, it's not like some devices which actually have modified cables for charging.

I have ordered the above belkin one for myself, will see how well it works and report back once I get it.

Will time it tomorrow when it requires another charge.
[HTC One X] sh500:
Yeah is there an app that measure the current coming out of charger?

In the mean time I would just charge with the original HTC cable for a set period if time and then the same for the Belkin one.
[HTC One X] twe69:
Yeh was going to do it that way but makes it 2 days before results or 3 using the cheapo 3m cable too....
[HTC One X] sh500:
I don't quite understand what you mean by the above- what makes it 2 days and what results?

Charge the device for say 30 minutes with the Belkin cable and then the same for original cable. See which does it quicker/charges more out of the two.
[HTC One X] Supaiku:
For that you can't use an app, you need a multimeter.
[HTC One X] sh500:
Surely its possible to know how much current is drawn from charger via the device itself? Current Widget claims to do it.
[HTC One X] Supaiku:
Maybe... that doesn't necessarily tell you how much the charger is offering... Battery Monitor Widget just tells you how much the phone is using/gaining net...
[HTC One X] twe69:
Well I reckon the percentage is not always correct between 10-20% and 20-30% for example.... Anyway am using the belkin one right now from 6% charge..... Will return with results......
[HTC One X] twe69:
Right I don't think the belkin is any faster than the non branded 3m ebay cable I have but will test with that another day.

6% battery to 100% took about 3hr 30 minutes....

That includes a bit of usage like whatsapp, the signal dropping and reconnecting due to the new firmware problems on the Three network..... http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=25570600&postcount=101

Isn't 3hr 30 mins good? My original cable takes about that time. That's without using the device.

It seems to be the case. At first I was worried, then I realized that they're all like that.
[HTC One X] twe69:
To be honest I normally have had my phone on charge overnight so it's ready in the morning for me.

Will install battery monitor widget but read this so will use the mA corrections
[HTC One X] twe69:
OK some results:

Linked Belkin 2m cable from ebay

+566mA

+403mA

+554mA

+456mA

12% 16:23 - 17% 16:36 = 5% increase in 13 minutes

Cheap 3m no named usb cable from ebay

+326mA

+306mA

+362mA

+341mA

7% 16:06 - 12% 16:23 = 5% increase in 17 minutes

Obviously the above is not the best way of testing it and results will vary, but glad the Belkin cable is a better quality product.

I do not have the HTC original usb cable with me but will bring it to work tomorrow and give you some results and update this post.

mA results were just noted from the Battery Monitor Widget every now again when I woke the screen up.

Hi All

I've been using a 3 metre usb extension cable for over 2 years to charge my HTC Desire HD with great success.

I have meticulously checked the mode and it is 'AC' mode and the DHD charged just fine.

In Australia I *know* whats out there in retail shops and it is just the eBay junk.

I need help finding A) AC Charger that wont buckle under like the THREE I have tried tonight and B) 2 or 3 metre USB cable that is high quality

I bought two 1m USB cables from ebay for $1 each including postage.

They stink.

They don't seem to deliver any current at all (battery monitor still saids negative), I can use them to transfer stuff but it's a bit jittery.

I thought for some reason USB cables would all be the same
