I read somewhere that gtalk eats up a lot of battery? aint it so?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Its possible. I can't tell from the logs he posted if it was causing problems. Its one of the apps that I freeze or delete cuz I don't plan to ever use it. ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slixzen:
Unfortunately, Facebook is a must, all of the notification settings and geo-location stuff is disabled. I gotta be addicted to something right? :( I have contemplated deleting my account, so when that happens the app will be removed.

Gtalk is now frozen.

Low signal, I can't really help, I work in a brick building. :(
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Zero Night:
That isn't very good battery life it also depends on how much you were using it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slixzen:
Bump added pictures for the past two days worth of battery stats.

I tried having Google Talk disabled for two days, didn't seem to decrease the awake counts.

So I tried uninstalling it, still doesn't seem to have helped at all.

Today, I may have used the phone for an hour and a half maybe. Beyond that, I haven't really used it.

[HTC Jetstream] jdavis08:
I know the Jetstream was designed to be run on AT&T and Rogers, but I am curious if it is possible to flash a radio to enable usage of T-Mobile's HSPA network, much like the Samsung Galaxy Note has been enabled to, as seen here.

Can any of the amazing Devs out there shed some light on this?
[HTC Jetstream] MikePierotti:
jdavis08, Simple answer is yes. It is a standard 2G / 3G / LTE (AT&T / AWS band) phone. So you can use it on ANY 2G / 3G / LTE network with a SIM. But you may need to break the SIM Lock on any handset.
[HTC Jetstream] jdavis08:
Just wanted to clarify. The Jetstream is 2G/3G/LTE /capable, 2G (GSM): 850/900/1800/1900MHz, 3G (UMTS/HSPA): 850/1900/2100, and LTE: 700mhz & AWS-1700/2100.

Currently, T-Mobile only uses the AWS for their HSPA+ network, not LTE (from what I understand, AWS will be transitioned for LTE and 1900mhz refarmed for 3G/4G early 2013) - and if I'm not mistaken, the HSPA+ is only supported by the "3G" band of this device, not the "LTE"

So - to make a long story short. I am a T-Mobile subscriber with various "4G" phones from T-Mobile. Their 4G only works if the phone has a radio with AWS for HSPA as T-Mobile (unlike AT&T) does not use the 1900mhz for their HSPA (yet). I own this tablet.. It has been SIM unlocked and it simply does not get anything above EDGE... and I live near and visit major cities in Washington State, Seattle/Bellevue/Tacoma, which definitely have TMo's 4G coverage.

I know I should just cool my jets until TMo rolls out the network upgrades, as I have no interest in joining AT&T. I was just curious if there was some way to "trick" the phone to use the AWS frequencies for HSPA, like the Galaxy Note has been made to do as the radio specs are identical.

I know that the Note was enabled to do this by flashing another radio. Support is minimal for the Jetstream these days... so I was just reaching out.

Thanks guys (:

But when you just change the character, and keep the star wars light speed animation, its just lazy on their part. But I understand with all these phones coming out and all the dev work that involves going into a solid rom.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dakpluto:
Agree, the "new" animation feels like it probably took them about 5 minutes to swap out the characters and that's it.

But...I'd rather have the great ROM that CM9 is with a boring new character than a great character and a boring ****ty ROM anyday!

I have made the mistake of responding to an ad that I got on my phone. Now I am getting random notifications on my status bar. They are links to crap no one wants. Does anyone know how to prevent them from coming to my phone? Thanks!
[HTC EVO 3D] coal686:
Usually notification ads are caused by some ad-supported app using something like Airpush. I recommend you run Addons Detector to see if there are any offending apps and remove them.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.denper.addonsdetector&hl=en

You can also opt out of the Airpush notification ads by following the directions at the following link. You do have to install and run their opt out app, but then you can remove it.

http://www.airpush.com/optout

Finally, if you are rooted, you can run AdAway:

[HTC Incredible S] JasonW12:
Hello,

My Inc S was rooted for awhile now, and it was having a few problems, So I decided to try and get S-ON... Well I got my RUU But I don't have Fastboot nor ADB connection. I do have HTC Sync on my PC. And when I was going to put ARHD back on my phone, I found out that I have no Recovery installed! And I can not try and 're-root' because I have no ADB!

My Question is: Is there any way to install a Temp root straight from the phone, or is there any way to get my ADB connection back?

EDIT: I forgot to say, The phone in the bootloader still says S-OFF

EDIT2: Hey guys! I somehow got my ADB connection back and fix the problem! So You guys can close it now!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] hajime_android:
Hello, I connected my Note to the Mac using a USB cable. Then, I used doubleTwrist to copy the music files to the Note. After the transfer, my music files got all messed up. (Perhaps I did not do a good job in organizing the files under iTunes right at the beginning.) I want to do a fresh start. Could you please let me know the following:

1. What is the best way to delete all the music files from my Note?

There are hundreds of them. I do want to keep the good music files

originally installed by Samsung.

2. Is doubleTwrist actually the best app to transfer music files from the Mac to the Note? What other suggestions do you have?

3. In order to avoid messing up the files again, should I just copy the playlist?

I am not familiar with iTunes also. Any advice appreciated. Thanks.

I read an article earlier today about Sprint putting out ICS at the end of this month (June 30).

On my other phone, it was a huge hassle going back to stock for the ICS update.

So should I just stay with TouchWiz till the end of the month?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] oscarthegrouch:
So far every prediction and announcement of official ics for this phone has been wrong. If you need root, then go with a rock solid rooted EL29 rom. If you accept an ota of ics, you can't root it. You will have to wait for a pre-rooted build to be released here and flash again. Using sfhub's one click Odin releases, it isn't difficult at all. Just don't be lazy and choose the nodata version. You will most likely have problems eventually if you don't do the full flash version. So many people are wanting help for a multitude of reasons. It usually boils down to do the full version flash and start from the beginning. Also, if you have it, don't be doing titanium backups of gingerbread installs then restoring them in ice cream sandwich, you'll be opening another can of worms with that.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
Are you tunning a custom rom or are you rooted now? How difficult was it to root? Have you checked sfhubs thread? Just asking you some questions because honestly rooting and unrooting is probably all of 5 minutes. Also when ICS comes out do you honestly think it won be rooted in minutes. So why stress yourself or start a thread over something you really don't need to worry about... Just Sayin

Stay with stock root with sfhubs method either way its not that big a deal when ICS comes out
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AndroidRocksSocks:
I appreciate you input and tips!

I have an HTC Dinc2 ATM. I know how to root it, and try out roms and all that.

But on Monday, when UPS delivers my E4GT, I want to be able to jump right into rooting it and putting a good rom on it so I can spend least time learning how to flash a rom onto it and least time running into mistakes and not be a tad bit familiar with what I'm doing and mess up something.

You're reply is sorta idk... I'm not stressing over anything. I want to unbox it, do everything I need to it, and be able to start using it right away. I just want it to be stable and have ics -even if its stock ota or a custom rom.

Edit: Usually I don't start threads because they end up not answered or someone replies not being helpful but being harsh. I'm just trying to have everything situated right.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
OK then just Odin one of the newest stock ICS roms out there. Agat has some nice ones as well if this is what you are looking for but stable for one may not be for others. I run cm9 with lil to no issues but I see other guys complain. Hey inbox Odin the latest ICS and enjoy

Edit: Sorry if my previous answer was confusing but sometimes people ask questions that have no definitive answers.

[Motorola Triumph] caHarkness:
I am convinced I have bricked my phone. My Windows 7 x64 machine can "talk" with the device- it refers to my bricked phone as QHUSB_DLOAD. Upon installing QPST, it acquires a driver named HS-USB Diagnostics 9008, introducing it to my machine as a COM port. My installation of Software Update Tool LR is able to give the approval that my device exists and is ready to receive files, but none of the nb0 files work.

Here are some details about my situation:

My Motorola Triumph is unable to reach download mode nor recovery mode in the traditional sense. The Software Update Tool claims it is in "Emergency Download Mode".

There is no screen activity on the phone. The only way I know my device is somewhat alive is by the notification Windows gives me when I insert new hardware.

If I could extract the contents of an NB0 file, I might be able to try something that may or may not work, but the only tool that exists on the planet was uploaded to MegaUpload, which was taken down by the Feds.

I don't have a stock Motorola Triumph NB0 file, but if I were to acquire one, I might be able to try something else that may or may not work.

I flashed the MMC block device under /dev/block/emmcblk0.

Any help is appreciated, as I am desperate for any help- feel free to ask questions. I won't get frustrated in answering them as I may have missed a few, important details.

Remember guys, if there is a will, there is a way. Help me out so if someone else ever comes across this problem, they will know EXACTLY what to do!

I eventually worked up the motive to send it in under warranty. However, I did end up calling Motorola as opposed to Virgin Mobile. The guys at Motorola said they would be happy to fix it as long as it wasn't physically damaged or submerged in liquids. Forget about paying Virgin Mobile for the phone insurance- Motorola wants to keep their customers happy.

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RazorChrist:
Are there any good SMS/texting apps for kindle fire/android that DON'T require the use of a cell number? I've only found one so far called Text+ in the kindle store. It works by assigning your account with a random phone number. Works pretty good for sending/receiving plain text from cell phones. But it doesn't allow you to choose what area code your number comes from, and it doesn't handle pics/video very well at all.

My KF is rooted now and about to have the google apps installed, so I was just wondering if there was a good app out there that doesn't require using your cellphone number.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tedr108:
Google Voice can do this for you. You will probably need to give Google Voice a phone or cell number to begin with, but you can remove that number after you are done setting it up. All of your texts will be coming from a phone number, but it will be the new Google Voice number that you sign up for. I always text from my computer or tablet using Google Voice.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RazorChrist:

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iphonedownload:
GOOGLE voice indirectly charges your phone number per text if you have a limited text plan such as 200 texts per month on your cell plan. Each google text counts as one because it runs it through your data plan on your cell phone, provided that's the number you used.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RazorChrist:
So what does it do if you don't use a cell number to set it up with? Just not allow the text?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] darkleafar:
So I just recently upgraded from an Evo 3D to the Evo 4g LTE, and the phone is gorgeous and all, but I've lost a major feature and it is scaring the hell out of me, I hope you guys can help:

Intro to my problem:

I have a 2012 Prius V, which has built in Bluetooth and an USB port. My Evo 3D lacked the right level of bluetooth AVRCP profile needed in order to display track names, artwork, etc, on my Prius Nav screen through bluetooth. So to work around that, I would plug in my Evo 3D into the Prius's USB port, then I would select "Disk drive/USB mass storage mode" on the phone and voila! My car saw all my music, complete with track names, album artwork, etc.

My main problem:

All of my music is in my 16GB MicroSD card, so I figured just putting it into my new LTE Evo would suffice...but it didnt. When I plug in my LTE Evo, the "Disk drive/USB mass storage mode" NO LONGER triggers my car detecting it. I noticed a new option, called "Media Sync." Selecting that WILL trigger my car dectecting the phone storage, but it ONLY detects the BUILT IN phone storage, not what's on my MicroSD card.

What's even worse...

Also, if you are wondering, the LTE Evo, despite having Bluetooth 4.0, STILL DOES NOT have the right level of AVRCP needed to display album artwork and track names over bluetooth. I was very, extremely disappointed when I realized this. I ve always been a loyal Anti-Apple/Pro-Windows/pro-Android kinda tech guy, but how come Iphones have been able to do this (track names and album artwork over bluetooth) for several years and this new super phone of ours cannot?

Where I need your help:

How can I make it so that my car can recognize my MicroSD card, not just my phone's storage?

I'm not gonna be forced to stick my music into my phone's built in storage instead of my MicroSD card, am I?

Isnt there any software/firmware or mods/rooting stuff I can do to enable tracknames and album artwork over bluetooth on this phone, since it already has bluetooth 4.0 after all?

Well, thank you very much for your time and I hope y'all have some awesome answers, more than greatly appreciated.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] waterbound:
Have a 2012 hyundai, 2012 honda and 2010 lexus that all connect the best ever with BT. Audio with BEATS sounds fantastic, track listings work with both EVO LTE and ipod touch via BT and plugging into usb if i want to go that route. With touch i use usb due to charging at the same time. I can play PANDORA internet via BT and tracks show up, and songs that have the correct format with standard naming convention show up with track names. For me, I have no problem playing and seeing a track from anywhere on the cell more so than any othrr cell I have used. Suggest looking at toyota forums and or taking a trip to your dealership, sounds like something on your head unit in the vehicle imo. Good luck
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] darkleafar:
Ok, so there has been a development: Turns out, I had USB debugging on. If I turn off, my car is able to see my music through the "Media Sync" option. However, its all completely whack. It sees the music and displays all its proper information, album, artist, album art, BUT its not organized as such. On the Browse feature (through my car's Nav screen) if I click on Artists, it shows "All artists" and "Unknown". Same with Albums category. Under playlists, my playlists show up, but when you click them it says "No Content".

Now, when you look under the songs category, songs appear as follows:

01 (track number) Random song for Android lovers (song name)

The thing is I have over 1200 songs, and its as though its seeing my whole library as a single, gigantic album. Every single song that is track number one in its respective album appears first in the song list, followed by every single song that is track number two in its respective album, etc. For example:

01 First song of muse's absolution album

01 First song of muse's uprising album

01 First song of Nirvana's unplugged album

02 Second song of muse's absolution album

02 Second song of muse's uprising album

02 Second song of Nirvana's unplugged album

and so on, of course, because I have a big library, the above example occurs in a much much larger scale, where there are several track 01's. several track 02's, etc.

This is completely weird, and I have never in my life encountered such a problem. Could it have something to do with the the "Media Sync" USB mode option using an MTP protocol which doesnt recognize whatever metadata tagging system ITUNES is using? (I use ITUNES with ISyncr) Please help! I'm seriously considering returning the phone if I cant figure this out. Being able to fully control my music library through my car's Nav screen was one of the most used features I enjoyed on my previous phone (Evo 3D) :(
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] darkleafar:
I just realize this thread got moved. So anyway, MTP sucks, it hates and I hate it back. My car keeps finding this random audio file now called "Join Hangout" and "Facebook pop" instead if my music. So I know the problem has to do with MTP, but why doesnt disk drive mode work anymore? THats what I dont get. Disk drive mode works perfectly on my computer, so why cant my car see it?
