[Nokia Lumia 800] sharpgfx:
Hi, new to XDA, have searched for this problem but not found any threads yet.

I have two Nokia Lumia 800's each with the latest 12072 update. Here is the scenario.

Lumia 800 has 75% battery life. Leave connected to PC overnight, PC is turned off, wake up, phone has 2% battery life.

The phones are both discharging when connected to USB without the PC even being turned on

This issue was not evident before the 12072 update.

The reason i use this is because i set my PC to shut down after 3 hours so my phone fully charges for the next day. PC is shutting down now and phone is charging over the course of 6 hours connected to USB but with the PC powered off.. Strange?

Any ideas?

I have one from the Vodafone network unlocked and on Telstra. The other was a fully unlocked phone and is also on Telstra.

Thanks for your help.
[Nokia Lumia 800] sHaHiN786:
Could be a bug I guess, since most people don't use PC to charge phones.

A PC charge is not sufficient power for the Lumia 800, they use fast charge (500-600mAh), PC's use around 100mAh max I think, stick to wall chargers, it's bad enough with the Lumia's battery issues, let alone using the PC to charge it, only use official wall chargers with the Lumia 800 to get the maximum charge. ;)
[Nokia Lumia 800] sharpgfx:
What about using Gigabyte mainboards red USB sockets with 3X charge? Has anyone had any results with this? (if so i may replace my MB)
[Nokia Lumia 800] donpromillo:
Hi sharpgfx,

wouldn't you agree, that's a waste of energy to run your pc, which consumes

much more than 500mA like the nokia charger, only to charge your phone?

regards

donpromillo
[Nokia Lumia 800] CervezaPorFavor:
I am also using a Gigabyte motherboard. And yes, I charge my phones using my PC even when my PC is off (yes, certain USB ports still have power).

I have been having similar problems with Lumia and I have given up on finding a solution. My other phones behave as expected (as long as they are connected, they will be charged).
[HTC Wildfire S] Teun_2:
Hi All!

I use my mobile phone both as a gps device and as music player on my bicycle rides. I would love to have a decent bicycle mount for the wildfire. I prefer a non-universal one, as these are usually bulky and does not fit that well.

I found the haicom bicycle mount, as well as som non-branded ones. I can find some mixed reviews about haicom mounts for other devices, but nothing on the one for the wildfire s.

Does anyone have experiences with bicycle mounts for the wildfire s?

I would like to fit this to a regular city bike, not a road bike or mountain bike.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] awaisuk:
Hey.

Screen is very grey compared to my old SGS2, why?

I got this sgs2 a few days ago and after that I immediately put hydrogen rom on it, and now I decided to go back to gingerbread. When I went back I immediately noticed how grey it was, for example when you press the settings key and get the options such as "Wallpaper, Setting, Edit" options, that is light grey, where it is suppose to be dark grey.

Someone know how to fix this?

I took a picture of this, but in the picture it looks FINE, but in real the screen is grey!!

Whats wrong?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atifsh:
Looks fine to me.... How about reflash, a stock rom. Or check screen mode.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aincalandorn:
I had it happen after a rom flashing. Try rebooting. That solved it for me.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rocky23:
Try factory reset,aslo try screen mode,dynamic,movie,standard.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] awaisuk:
Ya same thing with me. Reboot does not solve issue.....
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] awaisuk:
Also the colors seem fine on any AOSP ICS rom like cm9 or hydrogen aokp.......but when going back to gingerbread the colors are off again
[HTC EVO 3D] shiftwig113:
Is there such program besides this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.android.gx5.ringtoneshufflerpaid&hl=en

The one above hasn't been updated in two years. I have a lot of ringtones and would like to hear a different one every time someone calls me. I'm not willing to drop $3 on an app that hasn't been updated in 2 years though.

And if there isn't such app will someone be willing to make such app? I would be more than happy to pay a reasonable price for an app like that.
[HTC EVO 3D] egodriver07:
I use Tasker. But it's pricey if that's all you would use it for. Good app though. A learning curve to it too.
[HTC EVO 3D] ssojyeti2:
Tasker is very complicated. Make sure you know what you're doing before buying it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] 3r4in1ac:
Ok...

All I wanted to do was flash a custom rom on my Rogers I727R so I could get on my laptops adhoc network.

FoxHound_Otacon_V1_LP4_ICS_GSII_By_SnakeS.zip Seemed to be the right choice.

Rooted phone fine, but couldn't seem to get into cwg with the button combonation.

Heard of Rom Manager so ran that, it began flashing the new rom...

The linux text was in italian for some reason, and then I read errors regarding permissions?

Rebooted phone. MF Bricked.

Bought a usb jig, took about two weeks to arrive, followed the jig instructions, still cant get the phone to turn on.

Used a multimeter to check battery voltage, it's reading 3.665v, should be enough?

Any ideas? Besides having Rogers send it back to Samsung and wait 3 weeks, do I have any other options? Cheers.... ...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] nrm5110:
Nope but where did you get that rom is is a 727 or 989 rom
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
You flashed a ROM from a different phone. Its toasted.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] silver03wrx:
Yup u need jtag. Service. And also need to only flash i727 or t989 roms
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] 3r4in1ac:
*rubs eyes* f..I thought it said SG2...oh man...

What'll happen if Samsung gets ahold of it? Will they just send it back and say sol?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] silver03wrx:
Sgs2 skyrocket very different then sgs2
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] polish_pat:
rogers dont send your phone to samsung and make you wait 3 weeks, they send you a refurbished GS2 and a return box to put your broken phone and return it back to them. I've do this many times over the past 5 years ive been with them and they never made me wait for any repair
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] chappatti:
Man, I feel sorry for you.:( . However, it is not like it is "fried" or anything. A "repair" service is needed to reload the firmware etc.

EDIT: Yeah, try what polish_pat says. TELL THEM YOU TRIED AN OTA SOFTWARE UPDATE, and then the phone just died.

BUT, where the heck did you get the ROM from. Seriously, how could you even THINK of flashing something you had no clue about.

With all respect man, this is a thread all newbies should read. Even when I myself flash ANYTHING I am so tense, even after reading till I get a headache.

Contact adam outler on the forums here. Search for user "Adam Outler". PM him. He will ask you t mail your phone. He is a king in repairs. He has all kinds of hardware tools, and he won't gyp you with exorbitant prices.

Good luck !!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] 3r4in1ac:
I thought I727r and I9100 were the same thing...argh..

I'll try rogers then on Tuesday and update.

If someone can someone point me to a good rom for I727r so I can get adhoc going when I get my phone back I'd really appreciate it, I really need wifi and adhoc is my only option where I'm located.

Got the rom from galaxys2root.com, didn't realize it wssnt for I727R.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] chappatti:
Does the USB jig get you into download by ANY chance? Just by fluke or something ! You said you used a jig.

In ht meantime also look for member Adam Outler and PM him. He always has thousand tricks up his sleeve.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] silver03wrx:
Only if soft brick. You have a hard brick
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] denenatse:
I did the same thing, people keep saying Odin doesn't work for us Canadians, it does, use Odin on your PC, find stock Rogers ROM, flash that, should fix it, and more questions about how, pm me
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] nrm5110:
Odin only works if he can actually get into download mode he flashed a Rom from a different phone and buggered up
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cdshepherd:
Who said Odin didn't work on the i727r? There's even a stock tar file for the i727r. Never heard that before, Sorry bruh but if the phone won't kick into download mode then she's toast:(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] phil9000:
Odin with i727r

Actually what I read here was:

"NOTE: Rogers users double check to make sure each thread you are reading is compatible with your S2 LTE (I727R) before taking action! As a general tip, the ICS leak Odin TAR files are incompatible with the Rogers S2 LTE."

Not the same thing as Odin not working on Rogers' phones.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lewellyen:
just a question...

whats the "LTE-RAM-Dump" option for?

what happens if i activate this?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeadWestern Shogun:
I absolutely love this widget, and feel like I'm the only who would love to see it on our roms, Anybody know if it would possible to get it on sense 3.6?
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] stritfajt:
The ROM developers for Hero are all very talented and create beautiful ROMs that are really fast. However, it doesn't really matter when the apps we install are really slow, does it?

My idea is that we create a list of lightweight apps! Apps that runs fast and doesn't use a lot of resources.

I've found Opera Mini and Zeam to be good alternatives for the Browser and launcher. Also FriendCaster seems to be quite a bit faster than the official FaceBook client.

Continue the list with various really fast apps and give me more alternatives for launcher and browser.

Looks isn't really the important part here, functionality is! :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] lost101:
Fast for Facebook claims to be a lighter alternative to the official Facebook client. I don't use Facebook so can't confirm.

FTL Launcher is pretty light launcher. Transition speed can be set to: Instant. But I find it hard to move away from LauncherPro it also has an 'Instant' transition option.

Boat Browser Mini is another lightweight browser that is making waves.

Dialer2 is the fastest dialer I can find. Looks good with ics also.

FastContacts is a super-light contacts manager.

Maybe not the lightest RSS reader out there, but gReader always ran well on Hero. Pro version has text to speech support if you like having news read to you.

Explorer, is there a faster, lighter, file manager?
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] stritfajt:
Great!

I'm also wondering wether there's a way to keep market from updating itself to play store? The old Market was much faster than this crap!
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] lost101:
Suggestion #1: Delete /system/app/marketupdater.apk or better still, never include it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] stritfajt:
Awesome! I didn't knew that! I guess my apps won't be updated now either but who cares.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] Habarug:
your apps still gets updated, it only updates the market ;) I use friendcaster myself, it's lots faster than the official Facebook app, but it sucks that it can't show all posts and such because of permissions :/

I also use QuickPick instead of Galler3D/2d ;) And zeam is nice, but I usually use a heavier launcher of various reasons. Other than that I pretty much use the stock apps because I find them pretty much the most responsive, in ICS they even look good as well :P

One thing I miss is the old XDA app. They updated it not long too long ago, and it became way slower :/
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] tanisdlj:
Weather

Dolphin Browser.

Hikiplayer

Quickpic
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] 1ceb0x:
+1 for quickpic.

For widgets: UCCW - ~16mb for 3-4 widgets on screen

Maps (-) https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=coderminus.maps

Pansi SMS https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pansi.msg

And I think

Fast for Facebook https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=app.fastfacebook.com is picking up some speed :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] sizanx:
I also used Fast for Facebook, but I don't like it, it has a lot og bugs and doesn't look that good. However I now use Friendcaster, it's a lot faster than facebook, but has more features than Fast for Facebook :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] Yukikaze_nuce:
+1 QuickPic :D

FriendCaster (pro =)) )

Dialer One (good with me)

MIUI music player

Mx player- good video player :D

Stock CM7 sms + stock Contact

Opera Mini is a good browser :D

All of them work really fast :))
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] Cossin:
I also love the Holo launcher.. fluid, quick, not many resources.. Trying right now Holo locker for having the lockscreen looks like JBand he's very fluid also :cyclops:
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] ghost16:
My new favorite audio player: Rockbox for Android

Extremely fast, the best eq, but still has some bugs
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] craftech:
Lightweight

Launcher: FTL Pro (best I've used so far)

Dialer: Dialer One

Messaging: Go SMS Pro

E-mail: K-9 Mail (k9-4.308-release.apk)

Browser: Opera Mini

* Delete/uninstall: Market Updater.apk / AdService.apk

Above all tried & tested on Samsung Galaxy S5300 (aka Pocket) - really improved speed on this low level entry phone
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] assphere:
for facebook i prefer FBM.. lightweight and pretty fast...
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pwaddy:
Hi guys,

I've got v.1 currently installed but I've seemed to hit a stumbling block trying upgrade to v.2. Normally I would go into recovery and install update via sdcard or zip.

But when I try to go to my sdcard all I can see is my internal storage and not the external sdcard. I have a feeling its because my internal storage is called 'sdcard'

How did you other guys install this update? Thanks
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BLACK-ICE:
When I installed it, I went to "Install from SD Card" Then I Scrolled to the File and Flashed it, I think You have to put the 2.0 file on external1.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pwaddy:
That's what I did. I put the new rom on the external sdcard. But in recovery when I choose 'sdcard' it only shows the internal storage. I have tried using a different sdcard but its just the same, it points to the internal storage.

Can I put the from on the internal storage space to update??.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] solarnz:
Yes - don't forget google apps.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pwaddy:
thanks, updated perfectly.

not sure why i couldnt see the external sdcard in recovery.

i thought the updates had to be on the external sdcard, but i guess not.

thanks again

I'm having a problem where SOME of my apps (like Friendcaster, Pulse, and Draw Something) do not detect my WiFi connection, while others work fine. Any ideas on how to fix it?

[Atrix 4G General] eurosport360:
Wow,

For the past 5 months, I have been trying over and over and over again to get this to work on my Atrix. I have tried Alien 4, Darkside, Aura, and now currently Notachtrix, and all of these never got webtop2sd to work. I just got a lapdock as a gift and I am now DESPERATE to get this to work.

Please for the love of god help me out, its driving me nuts.

I will donate $20 USD to whoever posts a solution to my problem. I have asked the admin if this is ok, and it is. I want this to work that badly.

The main problem I am having is making webtop2sd mounting the external partition. I have NEVER EVER had webtop2sd state in diagnostics that BOTH mmblk0p13 and mmblk1p2 are mounted in all this time trying. It only has mmblk0p13 mounted under diagnotics, always.

I have literally read this whole thread.

I have tried everything.

-Using programs to install busybox

-Manually creating webtop2sd folder and placing busybox in that

-Using terminal to do all of that ^^^^

-Edited the mountosh file to look for busybox in either xbix or bin

- Manual mount of external partition 'mount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p2 /osh'

-Changing Permissions of busybox file

-reinstall mount executable

-Format, reformat SD card as primary Ext3 x10000 times

I am starting to believe that it has to do with my SD card not being compatible or something. I have tried everything. It is a Sandisk 16GB. I also read a post that said he was not rooted 'fully' if that makes sense. Maybe I haven't been fully rooted this whole time?

Even when I try to install/execute without mmblk1p2 mounted under diagnostics, webtop configurator doesn't work (Click Yes but it closes), and when I check the size of the mmblk1p2 partition, it shows that nothing was installed to it....

The interesting part is that after i try to install everything even without mmblk1p2 mounted, and even though mmblk1p2 is empty after install, when I use webtop again lxterminal and webtop configuator is still there. This leads me to believe that webtop2sd installs the custom webtop application to the internal webtop image, but it does not copy the internal webtop to the external SD partition.

Here are my current diagnostics. As of now all I have done is Wiped then Flashed the latest NotachTrix build, and changed the permission of busybox under /system/bin (Unchecked GID). I also reinstalled executable mount and reinstalled webtop configuration.

(By default Notochtrix has busybox + webtop2sd folder preinstalled)

Webtop2sd version: 1.1.2

Mount executable version: webtop2sd/1.1.2

Custom busybox installed: N

webtop configurator version: [Blank]

Currently mounted webtops:

mmblk0p13
[Atrix 4G General] eurosport360:
Bump
[Atrix 4G General] zomgno1:
Try formatting your

whole

SD card to fat32, then run webtop2sd steps again? =/
[Atrix 4G General] Alcapone263:
Download busybox installer from jrummy, install the oldest version of busybox and then move the busybox file to the webtop2sd folder
[Atrix 4G General] CaelanT:
Try GenTop2. Think you'll like it! :-)

BTW.......I was having same issue as you.
[Atrix 4G General] eurosport360:
Wow that looks really interesting.

Could you tell me the differences and similarities between Gentop2 and webtop2sd? I guess that one uses Gentoo while the other ubuntu. I don't really know a lot about gentoo.
[Atrix 4G General] spillb:
I was experiencing the same problem...could not figure it out. After reading this thread I followed zomgno's advice and all went well.

Reformat your card to FAT32 and let webtop2sd perform the partitioning and installation.
[Atrix 4G General] exwannabe:
It's another distro, more importantly though it is one that is designed to be built from source for a particular target. The advantage is that this allows it to be compiled for the Tegra's arm cpu, thereby making it more efficient than a "generic" arm compilation.

The webtop2sd mod just "fixes" the moto provided ubuntu.
[Atrix 4G General] KinGJamP:
is very complicated installation webtop2sd?
[HTC One X] UnixxinU:
I have wondered this for a while, would it be possible to return the device to Amazon for a refund? If they asked why, would I get away with blaming the overheating?
[HTC One X] EmperorK:
yes you would probably get away with it.

If I were you, blame all the common problems that they can't immediately test out of the box, screen occasionally flickering, overheating, software crashing, small scratches etc and they will take it back.

But, if it was truly faultless and perfect, I would seriously sell it at a profit on ebay.... I'm on my third one x now and even this one has faults. I'm still maybe toying with the idea of returning it and getting a note but I'll miss sense UI so much as well as hating touchwiz.

I'm genuinely serious... a truly faultless HOX is extremely rare.
[HTC One X] Ripley:
I returned my faultless Galaxy Note to Amazon, purely down to the size. It was giving me a sore thumb due to the buttons being awkward to reach when landscape thumbtyping.

It has to be within 28 days, and the phone must be unmarked, and all original packaging included.
[HTC One X] sebbo90:
Why do you want to return it?
[HTC One X] treebill:
Guess I have a rare item! I'll take good care of it I promise.

But to op i think they have a 7 day return should not want it.
