[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] desaipurvesh:
All right finally OTA update showed up on my cell. Problem was that i was on roaming 3g network and could not afford to update the phone then and there (partly due to rise in fuel costs as well :p)

So i postponed it, set the reminder to 1 day. Now when i try to update it states "NO UPDATE AVAILABLE"

THIS SERIOUSLY SUCKS.

MY wife's note got updated in a smooth manner yest via ota. And i am still struggling.

Any pointers guys ?

Thanks

I know this doesn't have anything to do with development !

But since we have only one forum ,i posted it here !!:p

Now these are tips for improving the battery life of your GT-I9100G :

1.Set the wallpaper , with dark or black images

or set the brightness to 10%

2.When you are not using data , please turn it off . Using 3G data will suck lots of juice !!

On the other hand Wifi doesn't suck so much juice

Now the next steps are the most important

3.Please do keep charging between very short intervals ,

Let the battery charge drop to 5-10% then charge till it reaches 100% , this will considerably , increase your battery life .

4.Do not let your phone keep charging for a long time ,even after it reaches 100%.

This will damage the battery .

Actually when your phone shows that it has been fully charged (100%),it has only been charged for 95% , so plug in for a few more minutes ,for some extra juice .:p

5.Do not install lots and lots of unused and useless apps ,as they will not only occupy memory , but will also suck the juice out of your phone !!

6.Delete unused widgets from home screen

7.Close unwanted apps running in the background.

Go to task manager and press the ,'clear memory' button frequently .

8.Do not use the charger of other mobile phones , even if they have the same pin ,as this will slowly damage the battery ;)

9.Use only original Samsung battery made for your GT-I9100G , duplicate or other battery will not only be waste of money , but will also damage your phone !!

10.Go to Settings-->Accounts and sync-->Untick Background data .

11.I won't recommend this , but if you know to and want to , you can under clock your device to a lower speed by using apps like SetCPU or ROMtoolbox to save some juice .

Disclaimer: I am not responsible for any damage caused to your phone due to under clocking . :p

12.Please press the thanks button , if you like this post and if i helped increase the battery life of your GT-I9100G :D

13.If you know a few extra tips , please post it or PM me :)

14.If you like this tread please rate it !! :)

15.Sugesstion are welcome , you can posted it , so that i can add it !!

These things helped me improve the battery life of my GT-I9100G ,I hope it also help you considerably increase the battery life of your GT-I9100G too :)

Cheers ,

Actually It's ok to keep the charger connected even after the battery chargers to 100%, it simply stops charging and resumes after charge level drops a bit.

[Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development] syamsoul:
I'm sorry, but i think its not good for Lithium Ion battery. For Nickel Cadmium , yes. Use till it flat is not good since Li-Ion doesnt have memory effect like Ni-Cad

But once in a while, do full discharge and full charge to calibrate the battery gauge.

As for me, once in a month, i do take full discharge and full charge.

Fully discharge for Li-Ion give much stress to the battery, and can make your battery hot.

high temperature effect the perfomance of the battery also.

conclusion, do partial charge. dont leave the battery in hot or high temperature place . as example in the car under a sunny day.

Guys i hv suggestion too. Kindly consider using greenify and one power guard. They work very well
[Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development] encik_racun:
I use greenify, but still thinking greenify is almost like other app killing machine...
[Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development] ottomatteseo:
Dont greenify essential apps if u are using the free version. But if u use the donation version, u can enable experimental features which allows u to greenify system apps n essential apps without losing functionality ie whatsapp
[Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development] encik_racun:
What? Do u mean we can greenify whatsapp but still get notified?
[Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development] ottomatteseo:
Yup, the experimental GCM push allows greenified apps to wake up and receive notification and then greenified back in. Experimental as it may be, it works pretty well
[Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development] encik_racun:
Nice :) so i can greenify facebook too right?

Gonna try it later, have to install xposed framework to make greenify donate works right?
[Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development] ottomatteseo:
Yup. I did receive message notification frm greenified FB. Install xposed and then enable greenify in the modules.
[Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development] encik_racun:
I'm on cm9.1 now, i can use greenify...

I install xposed framework then enable greenify module, but nothing happen...is it i wrongly install the framework or something? What your xposed look like in the installation menu?
[Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development] ottomatteseo:
Sorry for the late reply

U need to enable the experimental feature in the greenify app in the setting menu. Unfortunately i cannot screen cap while the menu is on. Below are some screencaps. I hope they help.

Edit: dont forget to reboot after u install framework as well as enabling the module. 2 reboots needed

That's simple. Remove battery then boot into Recovery (Vol UP+ Home Button + Power Button) then wipe cache and wipe data/factory reset. If that doesn't work, flash it again into Stock ROM using Doky's zips and flash using Odin in download mode.

Hello Guys!

I've tried to read lot of things in sensation development thread, but i can't understand a thing ..

I have this sensation htc and I upgraded to ics, but I'd like to have the root and overclocking.

I just do not understand what it means hboot, s-boot!

You can please explain to me step by step what should I do?

I managed to understand that the version of bootloader + 1.27 and just .. thanks so much!

[HTC Sensation] kgs1992:
Try to root with S On & *locked* using the rooting method in my tool.

I believe Busybox & SU is being installed, but the binaries are not present.

You can try and see if it works for you.

I'm trying to get it to work on S On & *locked* devices.
[HTC Sensation] davibs:
Mhh..with this i can have error?

I prefer to don't have error but have a custom rom and kernel with root :)
[HTC Sensation] kgs1992:
The only error is that the file doesn't exist for S On & *locked* users, although I can't confirm if this because this is true I've only heard about this from a couple of users.

The rest of the tool is bug free.

If you want to install a custom ROM then you will have to do either one of the following:

Use HTC Dev Unlock & Stay S On.

S Off without voiding your warranty. and then continue with this tutorial from step 1

Now, for the second method, you can also use my tool.

And frankly, because you are starting from scratch, the tool will make everything easy. Here's the options that you need to select:

First, S Off.

then Install 4EXT Recovery

then Install Firmware

then download your ROM & Install by selecting install ZIP from recovery.
[HTC Sensation] davibs:
I have an error while trying to use S-OFF ( option 2)

When i press 0 at the ask if i hav unlocked the bootloader, the cmd prompt exit and open another prompt with an error, like " Not a valid argument"
[HTC Sensation] kgs1992:
I'm sorry, I guess the filename I used was wrong.

Please replace the menu file with this one from this zip.
[HTC Sensation] davibs:
Can't i install other rom or root without s-off? ( i have unlocked bootloader)
[HTC Sensation] davibs:
Ok, i've unlocked bootloader with htc dev and now root.

Can now install Ext recovery withou S-Off?

So, now?
[HTC Sensation] kgs1992:
Yes, once you are HTC Dev unlocked, you can. If you can't install the recovery, new version of the tool in a few minutes, which will make it possible.
[HTC Sensation] davibs:
So i will wait, thanks (:
[HTC Sensation] silverboi17:
I was in your state as well. I was trying to see wait whether Revolutionary.io would produce a newer version for the HBOOT 1.27. But I got tired of waiting and just went on to use other methods. In the beginning, it's a bit confusing. It took me a while to understand everything. But once you follow the steps, everything should become more simple.

A problem that I encounter was install 4EXT Recovery. I couldn't install it at first. I just install Clockwork's Recovery and flashed the ROM I picked. Then I went ahead and downloaded the apk for the 4EXT Recovery and install it from there. It was troublesome in the beginning, but it was well worth it.

My suggestion is that you should do HTC Dev Unlock first. Then S-OFF.
[HTC Sensation] davibs:
But i wanma stay s on, i don't wanna try wire trick.

How can i install recovery with s on?

Bootloader os unlocked from htc dev, phone is rooted.
[HTC Sensation] kgs1992:
The tool has been updated.

Use the normal method first. (The new method is now the normal method)
[HTC Sensation] davibs:
Sorry, wich method?

"Install EXT4" ?

YOu're talking about this?
[HTC Sensation] kgs1992:
Yes. When it asks if you want to use method 2, type no (0).
[HTC Sensation] davibs:
When i come at home i will try, Thank you so much!

[HTC Sensation] davibs:
I'm stuck..it say to press power and after vol up but i don't know where..

I have to put it in fastboot?

Or press power on the Bootloader? confused--.
[HTC Sensation] kgs1992:
That's method 2 mate. If you're having trouble with the menu, here it is again.

Changed the method. Also, you should download the recovery.img attachment for flashing recovery.

PG58IMG method will not work for you because you are S On
[HTC Sensation] davibs:
So i chose 0 like before?

Where can i found the. Img?
[HTC Sensation] kgs1992:
Yes. It is in the attachments in op..

[HTC Sensation] kgs1992:
I suggest you turn on Smart Flash in 4ext (It's located in the tools option in 4EXT) and then Re-flash the ROM through 4EXT without using my tool.

Going to try now

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] uncoolkid:
So I am just wondering if I'm just have a run of bad luck. Bought my one x the release day. Few days later started seeing dead pixels all over the screen. Took it to att and they swap it out no problem.

Second one seem fine the first day but then I notice tons of light leakage like the screen wasnt in all the way around the bottom and right side. The screen would also wiggle and make a popping sound if I pressed on it on the bottem left corner, right corner, and top right corner. The plastic on the bottom would also move if I pressed it.

I happen to luck out and found an att close by that had one in (damn you apple). Now this one the screen is clicking even worse than the second one. If I wipe the screen off I can hear it clicking and popping with even the lightest pressure. Also have light leakage across the bottom again and what looks like single dots almost like a dead pixel even though there is no pixel by the buttons where light is shining through the black. I expect to have att replace this one also.

So I was just wondering am I have terrible luck or should I expect this from all hox? I love the device but really wont keep it if I keep getting shotty devices.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] vioalas:
That's some pretty bad luck... Still on my first. No problems except for the tiniest bit of bleed on one side, and I cannot over emphasize tiny. Hope it stays that way too.

You must have been on a streak of bad luck for your HOX...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] live4nyy:
I am currently on my second. The first one had a defect in the upper-right side (near the volume rocker and front-facing camera) where it would very loudly "creak" whenever I picked it up and/or was using it. And the screen/display in that area was "mushy" as I was able to be push the internal casing into the polycarbonate shell a few millimeters without hardly any force at all.

I bought it at Best Buy and when I brought it in I just asked

IF

it would be considered a defect and they suggested replacing it without me even asking. The second one I got is very solid in comparison to the issues from the first one but the volume rocker does "wiggle" a bit and the bottom (near the microphone) "creaks" but

only

if I apply direct pressure on it. I understand the nature of how the internal "frame" is placed into the "shell" so I don't think those are issues at all so I am very pleased with the build quality. Also, I keep it in a Otterbox Defender now so I don't even notice either issue at all. :)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] uncoolkid:
This sucks that I'm having this luck but thanks for the feed back.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] CraigP17:
Some of these small creeks or wiggles are somethings that might just need to be accepted. We are too often perfectionists. Not realists.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] live4nyy:
I agree that we can sometimes expect too much.

The One X is unique in it's design in that the "internal frame" that holds the display, screen, motherboard, battery, etc. actually "snaps" into the outer polycarbonate shell,

not with screws

like almost all other smartphones.

The "creak" that was coming from my

first

HOX was an undeniable defect, it was so loud the BB employees could hear it over all the crowd noise and it would do that just by handling it normally, not to mention the screen had way too much "give". The "creak" in my

second

HOX is probably just a "normal" side-effect of the design, as it is very faint and only happens when I try, and I have totally accepted that (as I have already mentioned I see it as a

non

-issue). :)

But to be honest, I don't think the consumer should just "accept" flaws and poor build quality, things should not "creak" or "wiggle" (that were never meant to) within a few days of use. Some people can deal with it but we should not have to, so if someone is unhappy with their product then they have every right to exchange it or return it.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] rfree2340:
I'm on my second, first one swapped for connection issues (had to toggle airplane mode for it to work any time I lost service or was in an area with poor reception)... Only to find out that my second does the exact same thing.. considering swapping again because 1.85 screwed it up even more.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] uncoolkid:
I agree that often perfectionist and it's my downfall. I'm ok with the very small light leak I have on this one . But just touching my screen near top and hearing it "pop" just shouldn't happen and afraid it will get worse as time goes on. And seeing as I bought this phone out right I don't feel as if I'm being to unreasonable. I mean I must of traded in 20-35 iPhones in my time for even smaller defects. Going back to the iPhone 3g.
