[Acer Iconia Tab A100] masr1979:
I'm also hoping to get a phone using TI hardware in the future, but since I'll probably be going to republic wireless in a few months my options will be limited... *SIGH* In the mean time I'm probably buying a pandaboard at some point, though I'm not even sure for exactly what yet. I'd use it for an htpc, but I'm going to use a Raspberry Pi I'm supposed to be getting in June to run XBMC, maybe I'll just shove the pandaboard, instead of the a100, in the car, so many plans, so little money to do them all LOL!

Anyways, the seller is 1saleaday down side it's not a constant stock thing, they'll have deals for well... 1 day. A lot of the times their electronics are refurbished, but despite that everything that I've ordered has come to me looking not "like" new, but brand spanking new. This tablet in particular was refurbished by Acer themselves according to a little label... and while it did crap out, I'm perfectly aware that "sh*t happens". On the topic of shiesty sellers, my attitude until I heard from them should indicate what I think about most stores and their services, but glad to be pleasantly surprised this time.

Well I'm not hating dude :D more power to you if you can get cheap toys... still that only further reiterates my previous statement... lucky bastard (LOL)
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] pio_masaki:
I'm considering a rpi for the bedroom, but the living room has an atv1 with Ubuntu and a crystal decoder for HD playback and the other bedroom an atv2 both running xbmc, been running since my dash on my Xbox lol. Glad to meet another user. Now if only I could get xbmc for my tablets....
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] masr1979:
That would be epic... but in the mean time it's cool using the tab as a control :D
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] pio_masaki:
Yeah the tab does make a very nice remote lol

http://www.scan.co.uk/products/veho...gable-battery-pack-2200mah-ipod-iphone-and-mi

Has anyone got one of these, would really like to know if they will be worth the hassle of getting, if so how much would it give extra ?

This Link is for the official Veho website:

[HTC One X] gdelrosario:
those are rated at 2200mah, with loss for charging and heat i'd assume you'd get somewhere around half a charge.

better to just get something like this

http://www.amazon.com/Anker-8400mAh-External-Flashlight-Smartphones/dp/B0067UPRQ4/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1336424635&sr=8-3

which can get you 2-3 full charges
[HTC One X] LaneyEFC:
To be honest am not looking at 2-3 chargers, I just need something that will give my battery more power so can watch football live when out and to play games, as I charge my phone every night ...

I get home from work with about 30% remaining but am curious about playing games etc just incase battery dies.... Was alright on 1.26 but since updating to 1.28 battery seems to have gone worse

[HTC One X] LaneyEFC:
Let us no how ye get on with it, i was looking at the stick one as looks easier to carry in pocket.. I'd be happy with an extra 50% battery to be honest
[HTC One X] random_username_:
Our battery is 1800mah and this is 2200mah so it should give it one full charge and a bit but in reality these batteries are usually 70% to 90% of their stated amount so expect one full charge. Its a bit pricey for 2200mah though, then again its very portable, let us know how it goes if you decide to get it :)
[HTC One X] Fruktsallad:
I'm thinking about this one, but I'm concerned about charging at non stock voltages/currents. Will charging at 5.2V damage the phone? What about devices that feed more than 1000mA?

http://www.dealextreme.com/p/4000ma...-emergency-battery-pack-silver-125301?item=16
[HTC One X] random_username_:
This one looks a little too good to be true, 4000mah in such a small size, but it should charge our device just fine the charger supplied with our phone says it has a 1A output which is equal to the 1000ma supplied by this battery pack. If the device feeds more than 1000ma the phone will simply charge faster. The only difference is the charger supplied with the one x states an output of 5v while this one says 5.2v but I doubt this matters. I'd go with the first one :).
[HTC One X] treebill:
I believe that our phone is limited to 1A charge so anything over that is simple ignored, my friend has got 5000 mah called powerbank he is letting me borrow it to try out seems pretty good so far.
[HTC One X] random_username_:
My mistake, my old phone used to charge faster with a more powerful charger.
[HTC One X] noisy_lightning:
I have one of these.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/New-Trent-I...MP50/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1336512020&sr=8-2

Bought it 18 months back for my DHD as I go to a lot of music festivals and I didnt want to pay to charge my phone up. I used it when I bought it from a full charge on my DHD and I got 13 full charges out of the thing. And lasts a full week when camping (as I charge my ipod too)

A load of my friends have actually gone out and bought them as a result of seeing and using mine. Not that big or heavy and great for use on planes as well! Has an autoshut off also so when the phone stops drawing power the battery pack shuts down to avoid draining itself.
[HTC One X] random_username_:
How big is it compared to an everyday object?

Hope these help. The Toshiba is a portable 2.5' hard drive. And then the DVD.

Thanks for the pics they helped a lot, its not anywhere near as big as i thought it would be. I might pick one up for long journeys I'd be able to charge almost all of my devices fully.

[HTC One X] verynuclear:
I bought Astro 3 two days ago.

I can say that it is more than expected. It charges my HOX very fast and I feel that my HOX battery life is much better now.

I am heavy user so screen on time was 3 hours maximum before Astro. Now it stays about 5 hours with heavy usage.

I strongly recommend this great product.

[HTC One X] kylec:
I agree. I bought a cheap 3500mah one off ebay and it has been my life saver many times while out.

Looking at getting a much larger capacity one for when I head overseas

[HTC One X] stuart0001:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B0073F92OK

Got this today and happy to report it charges at full speed. I'm getting about 870ma, which is at least as good as the stock mains charger.

I thought at £27 it was a good price. It's about the same size as a pack of playing cards so can be carried in pocket fairly easily.
[HTC One X] LaneyEFC:
Looks nice and portable to me will have to think bout getting one of these.. does it give your hox a full charge?, as I can report that one i posted caused my phone to overheat and had to send me phone back to three (good job was in 30 day's of contract at the time or would of had to get repaired) and was really slow charging... just sits in the cupboard now gathering dust!
[HTC One X] stuart0001:
I haven't tried a full charge yet, just a few top ups but I haven't noticed any overheating yet. I'll report back once I've had a chance to test fully.
[HTC One X] :
I just found this at the 99p store:

It shows up as usb charging but for 99p im not complaining lol.
[HTC One X] drhunter:
That's a good buy although I'd invest a few pounds more and buy some Sanyo Eneloop or similar rechargeable batteries.

I'm not sure what capacity single use Duracell or Everready's are but you'll only get roughly 50% charge out of a set, which will work out expensive in the long run.

The rechargeables I've linked to above don't lose their charge over time, so they're handy for those emergency situations.
[HTC One X] :
Good Idea, I'll probably get these: http://www.google.co.uk/products/ca...=X&ei=tlrUT7mNCYuyhAe_0vzGAw&ved=0CN8BEPMCMAU to go along with it.
[HTC One X] stuart0001:
Happy to report that it charges fully just fine and no heating issues.

One thing to note is that the 2A USB socket is a lot less efficient than the 0.5A and I would guess you'll only get 2 full charges as oppose to 3-4.

One bonus is that I used the cable that came with it to charge my phone from my laptop and it comes up as AC and charges at full whack. Any other cable I've tried comes up as USB and I'm lucky to get 400mA, even with the official HTC cable. I guess the fact that it's a power only cable is the reason.
[HTC One X] chrisjcks:
Here is my battery pack

Anker 5600mah

I love it, 3 times the size of my HOX battery, and the thing is soooo tiny that I can easily use it on the go whenever I have to.

It charges my HOX in 2hrs 35mins

As a reference, the official HTC charger took 2hrs 50mins

(both from a completely dead state)

Here is my solar charging project, for a little green IT on my One X.:D

I use the HTC battery BB G400 (3000mAh, output 5V 1000mA) as caching for Solar Energy, takes about 4-5 hours until the battery is fully charged.(with full Sun)

With the full battery once I can fully charge my one x in 2,5-3 hours

It may also be charged directly by Solar the One x, with 650mAh charge current (data from the battery monitor widget).

I get the solar from here: Ebay-de Link

I've placed an order for the New Trent IMP100P 10 000mah battery. (it originally seemed a bit over kill & I was going to go with a 6000mah battery, but I remembered that 36+ hour days are in my very near future).

I'll put up some photos and opinions on it when it arrives - My HOX and the IMP100P are going to be racing each other to get here, my supplier still has no HOX stock :'(

Sony Portable Charger

I got me one of these and I was able to charge it from 0 to 70 two times and there is still a lotta power left....

http://www.sony.co.in/product/cp-a2ls
[HTC One X] Swiftrider:
Hi,

How long have you been using this?

Does it actually provide 4000mAh of charge? I guess you are using HTC one X (from your signature:laugh:). If so, it should charge your phone at least twice.

I almost ordered "iball Portable Power Charger 5000mAh" from ebay india.

www ebay.in/itm/iball-Portable-Power-Charger-1-year-manufacturer-warranty-/150842742829?pt=IN_Mobile_Accessories&hash=item231eed982d

But later got a user who said it stopped working for him, after few months. So i dropped my plan.

If you are satisfied with this product from sony, i will also go for it. How much you bought it for and from where?
[HTC One X] Involved:
That's only 4000 mah and goes for 40€ plus shipping, there are some shown in the posts before wich goes for so much less
[HTC One X] aLcHy09:
I am very satisfied with it... Only issue that I felt was the output.... It is 0.5A and not 1 or more and hence when you are charging with this, it is detected as a USB connection and hence the charging is relatively slower than the usual ones... If you are going to get one with a better output then that will be your best bet as the battery will be charged even faster.... The standard charger has a output of 1A so that you get the general idea.... So if it takes 3 hours to charge your phone through the AC adapter, it will take nearly 5+ hours to charge this monster.... I would recommend you try one that will give you better output.... There are some ones discussed in the forums somewhere...

One thing is that these local guys have got the pricing right, but in terms of product quality there are no where near the BIG ONES... And thats one of the main reasons I went with Sony....

Also, I have heard many people telling that the battery (portable one) gets really hot while discharging and hence the lifespan also drastically reduces for it.... The Sony Model ran super cool... Room temp was 25 ish and the battery was never hot... You can say it was slightly warm

COST: INR 2,600.00

Yeah they all have been posted as 7000 mah or 19000 mah or whatever.... But it is the number of times that you are able to charge the device that counts... I am able to charge the HTC One X two times over without any issues.... I have read many posts where people are saying that they bought a 5000mah battery and are able to charge the device only once.... And also brand loyalty and heat issues were also considered.... :silly:

Hit THANKS if I have cleared your doubts... :cyclops:

[HTC One X] schriss:
Appears to be Li-Poly (so nice) and output is 1.5A, and the price seems right :)

P.S. You can get charging external case for the same price, if you don't like to deal with cables and accept lower capacity (3200-3500mAh)
[HTC One X] scream_clarity:
I got this one (http://www.ebay.com/itm/2200mAh-Ext...884714?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item3cc76d92aa) and it is a really nice case and battery that fits perfectly. I'm confused by it though because it says it's a 2200mah battery but it will only charge my phone less than 25% before it's dead.
[HTC One X] Piest4r:
Is it true that these portable emergency chargers decrease in efficiency over time? If so what makes it so this?

Ie. Will letting the charger go right down to a low percentage before charging each time prolong its life?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bigfoot7375:
When flashing the RAZR via RSD, do I need to take the Sim out?

Or I can leave it in while flashing the device?

[Motorola Droid RAZR] pedrotorresfilho:
Mostly let the sim when flashing. It will not interfere in anything.

[G2 and Desire Z General] cyberbozzo:
Hi everybody,

11 months ago I bought a brand new HTC Desire Z (bought in Belgium, in a retail shop, no webshop).

During the time I rooted the phone, installed several custom ROM's, for example: now it is running Andromadus Audacity B3.

Now I have a (hardware) problem with my phone:

sometimes the phone goes off. The phone doesn't shutdown (no software fault), but i think it is the battery that doesn't make contact with the motherboard.

I can reproduce the problem very simple: moving the battery a little bit when the phone is running.

Cleaning the contacts doesn't make sense; the battery have a solid contact with the 'clips'. So I think there is something wrong on the motherboard of the phone.

I want to send the phone back to HTC because it is still in warranty.

Should they make noise about the fact that the phone is rooted and there is a custom ROM installed?

Should I restore the phone back to factory defaults before sending it back?

How can I do this (setting the phone back to the original firmware/ROM and unrooted).

Or shouldn't it make sense?

Can someone help me?

Thx!
[G2 and Desire Z General] demkantor:
Most people don't seem to have a problem sending back rooted phones but some do. If you don't mind the small amount of effort involved nipqer has a guide to revert back, search the development thread
[G2 and Desire Z General] Athrun88:
It is understood that when you root your phone the supplied warranty is null and void. You are doing something to the phone that you were not meant to do by the manufacturer/retailer but is fully capable of doing it.

If you want to attempt to return the phone for a claim under warranty, you will have to revert your phone to it's original factory state. That means getting S-ON (if you achieved S-OFF), unrooting the phone, restoring the factory ROM and restoring the factory CID (if you achieved SuperCID).

There are people who have gotten their phones serviced while S-OFF and rooted, but it will be at the final discretion of the repair shop/manufacturer if they will go ahead on a repair on a device that is technically out of warranty.

Good luck.

[G2 and Desire Z General] cyberbozzo:
Thx very much guys!

I won't take the risk that the serial number of my phone will be registrated as 'warranty void' if they see that the phone is rooted and no original ROM.

I will take a backup of the current ROM and all settings, and I will follow the guide posted in this thread.

Fingers crossed, I have to leave my Desire Z for about 4 weeks and going backup to a Nokia 6300 :-)

Thx for all the answers!
[G2 and Desire Z General] cyberbozzo:
Can't understand it.

I followed the guide to go back to stock rom/settings succesful.

The phone was back in it's original state (thx for the tutorial!).

When I tried to reproduce the problem with original firmware: impossible, phone was working for 100%.

Now I rerooted the phone, clockworkmod installed and so on. I reflashed my backup of Audicity B3, and now the phone is working for 100%?

I can't understand... It couldn't be a software problem, or am I wrong? The phone didn't reboot but was 'shut off' in just 1/4 second.

What should I do?

Waiting further, to know if the problem comes back...?
[G2 and Desire Z General] SlimeYKW:
Wow I thought I was the only one!!! I just had this problem a few days ago. Happened if I pushed the bottom of the metal door/cover for the battery. EVERY time I just pushed slightly on it, the phone would immediately shut off.

Seems I have fixed it by just taking the battery out and cleaning off the contacts. I haven't had the problem in a while now. Will report back if it does happen again. But maybe it cleaned itself off from you removing/replacing the battery so many times? lol sound stupid I dunno.
[HTC Sensation] NLvice:
Hey Guys,

I searched the whole internet and i couldnt find my answer, i hope someone here can help me.

My PhotoCamera works fine, only not my Camcorder.

If i go to the camcorder everything is normal, but when i push the record button the app shut it self down. I tryed different quality's and i always get the same problem.

Its not my SD Card, becouse when i put my friends card in it who also have the Sensation i get the same problem. His Camera is ok.

I dont know if this problem was allready there when i bought the phone, becouse i Rooted my Phone the first day and didnt tested it before.

I tried different roms and kernals but nothing solved the problem.

My Setup now:

Rom: Elegancia_ICS_Sense4_Build3.8 Android 4.0.4

HTC Sense: 4.0

Kernel: 3.0.30-Bricked-3.0-v1.1-g5a2b328 showp1984@jarvis

Build: 1.7.666.1

Radio: 11.65.3504.00P_11.19.3504.29_2

I hope someone can help me or tell me that the camcorder was allready dead from the day i got my HTC Sensation XE

I have noticed that to power on the phone, I need to long press the power key. However, the AT&T tutorial says "press" to power on, and not "long press". That was also how my Nexus One behaved.

Personally, coming from Nokia, I prefer the long-press-to-power-on behaviour. However, I want to confirm if my HOX behaves different from normal, and whether it's defective.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] UMGixxer:
