I dont know what you guys are talking about, but FLAC is supported on the HTC One S...

In fact, android has native FLAC support since version 3.1 (Honeycomb), so that makes ICS and Jellybean FLAC compatible.

I got stuck with this turd as an insurance replacement for the gs2. What a joke. The only good thing about this phone is the camera. I would never spend money again on an htc product.
[HTC One S] Terminator19:
cool story bro!

Easy solution sell it and go back to your super awesome GS 2.........
[HTC One S] DkjDroid:
That would be nice except nobody will buy it.
[HTC One S] MadJoe:
I'm sure it's been said, but the lack of an SD slot for expandable memory really irritates the piss out of me. I thought it would be fine, but some really good games are huge, requiring over 100MB of the SD card alone, and with all the videos and photos I take, that measly 10GB of user accessible space fills QUICK. I've stopped carrying music on my phone altogether, never mind movies, and find I constantly have to wade through my gallery to free up space, and remove apps etc. This is so frustrating that I have completely ruled out the Nexus 4 as a replacement because of the same issue. Seriously, **** not having SD expansion in a phone, and anyone who thinks it's unnecessary. They are what's wrong with mobile devices today.

PS when did xda start auto-nannying our posts?
[HTC One S] DkjDroid:

[HTC One S] Terminator19:
Lol.......

Yeah, just because you think that, does not mean that it applies to everyone :rolleyes:

The ones who complain about no SD slot are in a very small minority of the population, maybe like 20-30% of the world, if even that, the rest don't care.

Just look at the iphone sales, no SD slot (granted they have larger internal memory models to choose from as well, but it is a lot more expensive) yet they still sell far more units than any other phone, same goes for the nexus tablets and phones, although not as much as HTC and Samsung's phones.

On my S I have over 1000 photos including 1080P videos/slow motion recordings, wallpaper packs, icon packs, N64 and genesis ROM emulator files yet I still have about 3GB free (could free up 6GB as I back up all my photos/videos to my PC each day), over 86 apps installed (including games like where's my perry/water, sprinkle, angry birds star wars, dead space, dead trigger etc.) and I still have over 1GB free for apps.

Mines doing fine data wise i think its battery life that gets me
[HTC One S] copas2:
I'm experiencing it from the first day with my One-S (Ville/S4). While making a call I turn on speakerphone and then I turn it off. The display will never be disabled or turned off when my head or anything gets near the phone again. If I don't use speakerphone, the proximity sensor disables the screen when something's nearby as expected. Is it a bug or a feature? :)
[HTC One S] pookipsy:
when unlimited plan is cheap, photos and videos are automatically dropboxed, games you cant put on SD card anyway and music i use audiogalaxy which is so awesome to hear thousands of songs directly from your computer.

so yeah, SD card is useless these days IMO.

the only thing that really bugs me is the battery life. a phone these days shouldn't come with less than 2000mAH battery, especially not AMOLED or quad core phones which for them i would put no less than 2500mAH and screw the thickness.
[HTC One S] MadJoe:
The games I'm talking about have supplemental downloads that go directly onto your SD, and some are 1/2 a gig+. Not to mention you can move games to your SD. And I do Dropbox, but I don't always have signal, nor time to wait for it to download if I want to view my photos, or time to wade through the endless photos in my Dropbox that I haven't bothered to keep organized like in my phone. So yeah, local storage is still better than cloud IMO. Maybe some day it will be impossible to be out of cell range, but that day isn't today.

I used to get worked up about the battery, but I find the lack of space much more upsetting. Even now that I'm getting less than 6 hours out of a full charge for some reason, the lack of space is more annoying because I can't fit a ducking nandroid and full TB backup of my apps and settings on the little space I have left so I can factory reset this piece of crap.
[HTC EVO 3D] weezymagic:
Hey all. So I haven't downgraded yet (issues with the tool version of doing it) but I have successfully bricked my phone several times today. This is my problem...using the same gmail account for everything, since my og EVO. When signing in today, after bricking, it doesn't register any of my purchased apps. Including xda premium, lpp, utorrent pro and a few others. What happened and is there any way to fix it?
[HTC EVO 3D] sitlet:
You do realize it will take up to a half hour for the market to actually download the list of apps that you had purchased.
[HTC EVO 3D] weezymagic:
It's been about 7 hours and it has most of my purchased apps. I finally downgraded and everything at about 5 am. Almost immediately, it had most of my purchased apps. It is still missing a few. I just hope I backed them up

[Nook Color General] Raydee35:
I am sure this has been covered before but I finally made a boot SD for CM7 and while it works pretty good I want to try a class 4 sandisk SD card to see if its any faster. My question is can I just copy everything from my card now to the new card and insert it in my Nook?
[Nook Color General] leapinlar:
Not using windows explorer. But you can get the free program win32diskimager. It can read your card and write the image to your PC. Then you can write it to your new card.

uSD Card Size

Hi,

I notice a lot of Rom images say will will work in a 4GB card.

Is there any problems using a larger card, like 8GB?

Thanks.

Everett1954
[Nook Color General] Anniraff:
Yep. Use above method to put your image file on anything up to 32gig card; be sure you are using Sandisk brand, though. Small block read/write speed makes this the Nookers choice.
[Nook Color General] mogators1:
I just migrated from an 8gb to 16gb Sandisk card last night. I used win32diskimager to make an image of the 8gb card and then wrote that to the 16gb card. I then had to use a combination of Linux GParted and EASEUS partition manager to modify the partition sizes. I wanted to make more space available for apps instead of the 1GB (I upped it to 2GB), and expanded the CM7 partition to fill the remainder of the drive. I booted from the new card and everything seems to be working fine.

Hi.I recently started using CM7 on my dhd. Was just wondering about storage. I have only just noticed there is an SD-EXT directory, but it seems to point to internal memory and SD CARD points to external memory.

Not a majorly important question. Just curious.
[General Questions and Answers] YLNdroid:
Hello Friends, I have a few general queries. :)

What is the best method or practice to charge a cellphone battery? Should a user allow the device to completely run out of charge/power such that the device shuts down or switches off? Or should the user make it a point to charge the device once the battery level is between or depleting from 20% - 10%?

Also, does intermittent charging reduce the life span of the battery? The reason I ask this is because a cousin of mine has a habit of charging his cellphone (Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini Pro) every now and then. It does not seem to matter to him if the battery level is at 80% or 50%.

Personally, I have a Samsung Galaxy Note.

Thanking you in advance and awaiting your apt responses.

EDIT

I apologise if this thread is in the wrong section. Perhaps it belongs to the Questions and Answers sub-category of General Discussion. I urge my Superiors here to move it to the appropriate category/forum they deem fit.
[General Questions and Answers] icepally:
My best experience when first getting a new phone is to do a full charge, then let the battery drain completely, and do another full charge with no intermittent taking the phone off of the charger, after a few times of doing this it should break the battery in.

Though some say this does nothing and is merely a myth - I like to think it's true as I have seen results.
[General Questions and Answers] 85gallon:
I always do the charge, then full discharge, then full charge once on a new phone. From then on I don't pay attention.

I charge every night over night on my night stand. Then use phone throughout the day. If it is a particularly busy day I charge as needed whether that is the regular charger or cigarette lighter charger in the car.
[General Questions and Answers] YLNdroid:
Thank you icepally and 85gallon for your replies. :)

After I received my device, the very first time, I inserted the battery, powered it on and continued using it until the battery level was low (somewhere between 15% - 10%, although I cannot remember precisely :o ).

Should I have plugged the phone for charging immediately after inserting the battery or after powering it on?

Also, I did not follow a practice/order of complete 100% charge and complete 100% discharge.

Do any of you reckon what I have mentioned in the above 3 paragraphs will impact the battery life span of my device?

:confused:

I apologise for my naive and paranoid queries. I am a noob! :o

Thank you once again for being patient with me. :)
[General Questions and Answers] whodisname:
You should charge any li-ion battery fully and then discharge completely without interruption as often as possible. Most ppl who complain the most fail to get this. This will give you longer charges by up to 25%

Hello Friends, I have installed BatterBatteryStats 1.0.0.0 on my Samsung Galaxy Note.

[General Questions and Answers] YLNdroid:
Wipe Battery Stats, is it necessary?

Hello all, I would like to know if it is recommended that a Wipe Battery Stats be performed every time one flashes a different custom firmware and or a custom kernel?

There are suggestive opinions stating that such a practice allows the kernel to 'settle in' (for a lack of a better adjective), thus making a difference in battery life and performance.

Also, an acquaintance from my neighbourhood pointed me to the following article, http://lifehacker.com/5786717/get-b...ted-android-phone-by-wiping-its-battery-stats, which aroused the above query. My device is a Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000.

:confused:

I have not followed any such acclaimed practice till date, and since I am naive and daft, I felt my query will be best answered by the experts on this wonderful community. Thank you all for your patience.

There u got ur fone fully regenerate da stat without using any software. then u can charger anytime,anywhere n anyplace as android hav excellent battery management.
[General Questions and Answers] YLNdroid:
post-mortem, thank you very much for the link to a technical reference. Upon reading it, I have learnt and thus become aware of three important aspects -

1] Never overcharge the battery.

2] Never discharge the battery completely or too low.

3] Power off the device and charge.

:good:

But is it absolutely compulsory to follow point number 3, and charge the device after powering it down? :confused:
[General Questions and Answers] post-mortem:
I would say this is only a real issue if the device has high drain while charging. Like if you charge while on a call, or while using navigation. If you only do such things occasionally, I'd bet that the device will reach terminal utility in some other way, before the battery does.

For me, a new phone must be fully drained when used for the 1st time, and charge it for 5 hours.. It's always the common sayings for a lithium ion batteries.. and then after that you can charge the phone whether it's 20% 30%, etc.. then once a week fully drained the battery and charge..

Also. Overcharging will destroy battery integrity. Not like just charging overnight but if you just constantly always try to charge it and leave it charging when full for long periods of time. Its scientific.

[General Questions and Answers] YLNdroid:
Hello everyone.

:)

When charging a device, either via AC mains using a travel adapter, or USB, is it a compulsory practice to use the stock original cable which doubles up as the data cable, to do so?

Just as there are after market premium batteries from the likes of Anker and Mugen, are there after market premium cables available as well? If there are, would a single after market premium cable be compatible across multiple, if not all devices?

:confused:

The stock original cable of my Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000 has started malfunctioning. I contacted Samsung India's customer service to enquire about the availability of the said accessory, and upon the customer service agent's suggestion, I got in touch with the local Samsung authorised service centre, where an agent informed me, the cable will have to be ordered and it would take between 15 days to a month, to arrive at the local service centre.

:rolleyes:
