[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dante2086:
It's May 2012, and there's still no 3.2 for my region. I live in Nigeria and bought the tab there. I'm thinking of installing firmware from another region perhaps nordic, via Odin. Will it cause any problems.

I'm currently a product tester for LaptopMate/Anker Power, and I just thought that if I could get enough people to want to buy an extended battery for their Samsung Exhibit II 4G, I could suggest them to make some. I have close contact with one of their employees, and she is willing to try to make it happen if enough people wants it.

Sorry for extra comment but for me it would depend on the physical build quality and whether or not it would need a different battery cover. I would want something that fits with the phone as good as stock does.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dennis96411:
Wow, you guys are really generous with the pricing. They sell 2, 1500mAh batteries for our phone with a charger for only $19.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingdavidd:
Well if they are that cheap that makes this 10x better!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jgrinst1:
Yes, definitely!

I'd be looking for the max power I can get from the same form factor.

Looks like ACE make a 1950 mAh that is the same size, so the same or greater than that. Anker is a name brand so will be a better battery.

I'd be willing to pay $10 and up for a good battery.

Between buying iPod cases, screen protectors, an extended battery for my PSP-1000, and some hazardous Xbox accessories I've had my fair share of bad experiences with third party products. I'd rather pay a bit more for something that works right than be cheap.

Big srs question: Is it produced in USA or China?

$25 or so. or more. whatever works.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dennis96411:
I think China, the employee I'm talking with is in China. I bought a 10000mAh external power bank from them; it's working great, so quality is not an issue at all.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wilson pickett:
i cast the no vote,because i'm not buying any accessories for this phone,otherwise i'd vote for the largest battery they could make for the cheapest they would sell it.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elwebmaster:
I just purchased this battery: http://www.batterybuyer.com/battery-samsung-galaxy-gti8150-extended-with-back-cover-p-8114.html

Which claims 2900MAh. I looked for reviews, and while I couldn't find one for this particular battery it seams people are happy with other extended batteries from this manufacturer (CameronSino). The Galaxy W is the same phone as the Exhibit II 4G (I am actually running an Exhibit II 4G rom on mine).

Currently with stock 1500MAh battery I get 12 hours on standby with 30 minutes light usage on CM9 mainly due to very poor cellular reception. I expect to get one full day of usage with the replacement battery.

I think it would be nice to have more competition in the extended batteries market for this phone, I know the Mugen one is only 1700MAh and way too expensive. I think the best option for Anker would be:

3000+Mah with extra cover and priced under 30$.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dennis96411:
Thanks for showing us this! I actually Googled for the same battery and found it here also: http://www.batterybay.net/Extended-Battery-for-Samsung-Galaxy-W-p/samsung -cs-sm8150xl.htm

I decided to test it as well, so I went ahead and purchased it for only $15.95 (with a 5% off coupon code and free shipping). :)
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kujila:
Since ICS ROMs for the Evo Shift currently lack WiMAX radio drivers, and I still like to tether 4G from my phone, I was curious if I could somehow dual-boot between Ice Cream Sandwich and Gingerbread?

If it's possible, I could take advantage of ICS while still maintaining the ability to use WiMAX when I'm in a situation that demands it.

If anyone can shed some light on this it would be much appreciated! :cool:

Thanks!
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YoungCorruptionV2.0:
Highly doubt its possible
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bfitz26:
Dont think so we would need a safestrrap type recovery where you use you stable rom on the safe side and you experimental roms on the non safeside if someone makes a safestrap for shift it would work but keep in mind that it would basically the same amout of times restoring so 2 back ups would be the easiest method....
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] strapped365:
Go and see about getting boot manager compatible with the speedy, i use it on my doubleshot and can reboot to a new rom in anout 7 seconds
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sixxt9:
Thats pretty awesome. You're just a wealth of knowledge! That sounds rather tasty. It would be awesome to do that on the shift. So many roms i'd love to try, but i dont wanna give up supreme or go through the hassle of restoring. Not quite on that flashaholic level yet.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -somebody-:
i would talk to the devs over in the nook color section, they can quad boot roms over there and might be able to help shed some light on the possibility or lack of possibility on the shift too
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigrndahouse:
I rooted my e4gt to blu kuban then to cm9 and back to stock due to the battery life was rediculously low. Any thoughts as to what's happening in the pictures..you see a gradually decline and then a sudden drastic drop in the battery level. any suggestions is appreciated. I bought it 2 weeks ago and the battery use to hold a good 19hr charge. BUUTTTT then if you look at the second picture its still holding at 20% after an hour for some reason like its not registering the full power. odd. :confused:

EDIT:

Actually if you backup your USB storage and SD card and then format both then go back to stock all is well. It seems that some temporary files are stored and when you flash over and over again it lingers around. best thing to do is format both usb and sd card before going to stock or after i havent tried it after but if u do it before you get on a clean slate. Battery life just like first day i got it ..im happy
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] borkan:
it looks like you haven't let your battery settle yet. I've noticed it normally takes 1-2 days for your battery to settle and show you the proper usage.

The first day on a ROM always sucks for battery life.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigrndahouse:
THank you kindly sir. Yea it just stuck at 19 now lol. I guess i will give it a day or two like you said.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] puff601:
My phone does this all the time :( after a restart. I can be at like 30%, restart my phone and its at 7%, ouch... Ive also noticed that sometimes while charging, it takes forever to get from 99% to 100%... Don't know what the deal is...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigrndahouse:
Yea. it's a little crazy. I rooted my phone again and installed blu kuban with the update. It seems little better and at least sustainable. Of course its not stock battery life but till Source comes out for our phones i guess it will do. BluKuban is a great rom plus the updater is a bonus. Just updated my phone with some fixes...i ended up taking out the battery for an hour then put it back in and charge for a good 2 hours...it seems that all is well now. I dont have those sudden drops unless if im playing angry birds space or on it like crazy..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigrndahouse:
Thank you you were right..just had to let it settle then i did the battery bump thing with takin the battery out and all.Back on blu kuban and i love it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blackroseMD1:
This happens quite often in a multitude of roms. It's a battery reporting issue. You don't actually lose all that battery. If you watch after it happens, your battery will go back up on it's own if it's off the charger.

Sent while hanging with that really hoopy frood Ford Prefect.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] greeneguys:
Always best to calibrate the battery after flashing me roms.if your using blu kuban reboot to recovery click wipe then click battery wipe and reboot.
[Desire HD General] albertbm:
Hey guys, I'm making this thread basicly just to vent :mad: I sent my DHD in for repairs in late march because the volume rocker had come loose and it would be fixed under warranty, no biggie the phone did take a couple of weeks to get fixed but I knew that when I sent it in, now when I got it back I immediately tried to start it at my dealer but the phone wouldn't start I thought Oh well prob didn't have allot of battery when I put it in. So I came home but in the charger and turned it on, to my surprise they had tried to update my fw it failed and I was left with a phone that only had access to HBOOT, since it was fully functional when I put it in for the repairs (Stock rom S-ON) I took it right back and they tried to flash it at the dealer to no avail, I once again had to be without my phone for a few weeks, now this thursday I finally got word that my phone was ready to pick up *YAY* (they changed the mainboard) I was quite happy since I had been given an old desire bravo as a loaner while mine was being repaired thinking oh happy happy joyjoy these last two days having my phone back.

Now this evening when I went to look at the clock on my phone I saw right away some strange artifacts on the screen like green is bleeding through? I tried to restart right away and when the phone shows the htc logo the first time around it's clear no artifacts perfect white and green, and then as soon as it enters the OS the ****ups start to appear, what could be causing this?

I'm sorry for this wall of text but my patience for htc is wearing quite thin now and I'm not thinking I will ever buy another handset from them again :(

[Desire HD General] shad0wboss:
dude, if you've sent your phone twice, you should tell them to give your money back and you have right to do so. Once you do that, get yourself a dual or a quad core ;)
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BYOBret:
Hey everybody. I bought a fascinate from CL, which was soft-bricked, thinking I could fix it. Guy told me it froze updating to 2.3. It had been stock the whole time. Phone would not boot at all, no display, only four bottom buttons would light up on touch. No dl mode, recovery, or anything.

Odin somehow would still recognize the phone (comm port turns yellow) but fails during flashing of modem. I tried all stock .tar packages with atlas pit too. I tried to flash superclean with no modem, Odin said success, but phone did not do anything.

Now, I moved on to Heimdall to flash. I successfully flashed stock 2.2. When reboot command was sent, I heard the verizon startup sound, but still nothing on display. I waited a little until the phone vibrated when touchwiz force closed. Then, I locked/unlocked screen with power button and the display came back! Yay, I thought until I saw no internal storage, cannot install app, blah, blah.

Now, every time I turn off the phone, it returns to bricked state. Odin still fails, only Heimdall one click unbrick can successfully restart the phone, but again the display is off until it finishes loading and i can lock/unlock the screen.

Sooo, am I just stuck with no internal storage and cannot ever turn it off or does anyone have another suggestion? Thanks for hanging in there and reading all of this too.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BYOBret:
So it seems that the phone powers on into dl mode, maybe? The screen is blank but Odin will see it when I plug it in the computer. This is no key combos or usb, just power button.

It also connects right back to Odin if the flash says success. The phone will reboot (I guess, no display), then Odin beeps and com port added again.

Sorry for double post, just thought that was weird.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droidstyle:
follow the steps in section 5 of my guide in general section.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BYOBret:
I was using your guide from the beginning. I tried both the Froyo and Gingerbread but Odin fails at the modem.bin every time.

Tried all usb ports, reinstalled drivers, rebooted computer...

The heimdall one click is the only thing that kind of works. Are there any other heimdall packages to try?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dberube:
After a week with this phone my general consensus is that it works terribly.

First, let me say the hardware is great and the industrial design, the look, is top notch and the only reason I still have the phone.

HTC has really made this phone bad and AT&T hasn't helped by not letting us put our own rom on it to fix the major issues.

Firstly, Gmail push email only works when it wants to work. This is a 2007 issue that's been solved for half a decade.

When I leave my house and I try to use data, the phone shows as still being connected to my WiFi and therefore no data will work. So I have to manually turn wifi off.

Multitasking? Yea right. At first I was puzzled as to why after switching back to an app it would restart. Was the phone running out of RAM? Doesn't it have 1GB? Turns out it's a software thing. Again, multitasking was an issue solved in 2007.

These are the only major issues with this device, and they are major because it affects me multiple times a day.

If this phone didn't have great hardware and look awesome I would have returned it the same day.

The fact that these issues can all be solved by flashing another rom gives me hope that this will someday be a useable device.

Just needed to rant.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Bigjim1488:
We didn't need that rant :rolleyes:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dberube:
Well. I feel better after I wrote it :)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] greyhulk:
I have to admit: the multitasking thing really bothers me. I can't duplicate it on my Gnex and that alone makes me wonder about this phone. It seems to go against everything Android stands for. If I wanted a phone that saves states, I'd use my iPhone.

Love the camera on this phone and the screen is amazing. I love some of Sense's customizations such as the Facebook and Twitter integration in contacts, but they seem to have kind of ruined ICS. My GSM Gnex got just as good battery life with full blown multitasking.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] SysAdmNj:
Do you know if we would use cm7 or any other custom rom that we would be able to multitask properly? That is bothering me as well. It keeps reloading everything. If the hardware wasnt so nice, it would have gone back already.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dberube:
I would imagine so. I think Sense is prematurely killing apps to save memory.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ptesmoke:
seriously??

its obviously whatever they set as the default mem manager and how aggresive they set it, probably to do with the scheduler too

i can replicate that behaviour on my cappy by adjusting mem manager to aggresive....so..i wouldnt fault the phone. theyll either adjust it in an update due to feedback, or we can just control it ourselves once we are all on a custom rom.

you shoulda known this if youve ever run any sort of custom rom....one would think. but now you do....so fret no you must young padiwan, good things coming they are, wait you must.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] greyhulk:
I have no doubt that something like Cyanogenmod would resolve this, but I don't want to install a custom rom and shouldn't have to. The phone should work correctly without hacking it.

From the few responses I have seen from HTC reps that users have contacted, they don't seem to think this is a problem. They claim this is "how multitasking is intended to function". That tells me a fix will not be forthcoming.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] tae_254:
we really didnt. Seeing that there is a shortage of the same rants on the forum right now. ;) :confused:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] sdotkdot:
I'm not trying to troll, but how do so many people that want to run stock end up on xda lol? I love the hacking & experimenting aspect of Android. That being said, I don't really see any problems with the multi-tasking outside of the browser reloading so much (I've been using Firefox more anyway & it works fine). My galaxy nexus wasn't that much better either. Could htc have done a better job? Sure, probably. But the phone is pretty impressive, multi-tasking issues aside.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] greyhulk:
You may have noticed (or not, depending on how observant you are) that not every post on here is about hacking, modding, and rooting. Some people actually come here to talk about the phones, report bugs, compare notes, ask questions, etc.

Multitasking is much worse than a browser refresh. Start up Pandora or Slacker and let them run in the background. They will die. Start a game and then open a few other apps and come back to the game and it will completely reload and lose all progress. This is not how Android multitasking is supposed to work.

And I'm sorry, but waiting for a custom rom to make this phone work correctly is like buying a Macbook Air, getting nonstop kernel panics and hoping that someone will release a version of Linux that you can install on it to make it run correctly.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] sdotkdot:
I do understand that there are plenty of non-development threads given that this is in "general". Nobody is making you keep the phone and wait for a fix either. But you are right, it is a vital function of the phone and you would expect it to perform as it's supposed to. Every phone I've owned has had some kind of flaw or quirk and the developers here do an awesome job fixing them as well as making the phone better in almost every aspect fairly quickly.

*Edit - So after thinking about it, I realized that I haven't really used the multi-tasking feature all that much and decided to put it through some tests. Apparently it does suck lol so I apologize ...using home to exit current app then going back to a previously used app via the launcher does work a little better, but there is definitely some work to be done
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] n19htmare:
Rants are good. Gets the word out on issues that hopefully get resolved.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] lathode:
At least be accurate with your rant. From a little googling the Tmobile G1 was release in 2008 and Gmail push was released in 2009, not 2007.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] niceppl:
I have never really understand why htc...spend money make their own sense android... and they know people will try anything to get aosp back...

also those people who has galaxy nexus and tries to port sense...UI....god...they must have time....
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] xdp:
I went to a store to try this device tonight. The hardware and screen are simply awesome. Sense even looks nice and the UI was lightning quick. It is really disappointing that basic things like WiFi-3G handoff and multitasking are not working right...things I've taken for granted for awhile on CyanogenMod. I agree with others, I was hoping to not have to mess with custom ROMs at all, by now it should just work great out of the box. Now I have to monitor the software situation here and compare to the SGSIII when it's released.
