Ripoffs

I wish I could find the link where a member dissected his battery and found there to be filler in place of where battery should have been. I remember it being a Hyperion battery and it supposedly being the same Ma/h as stock. I think the final conclusion was it was an 1800ma/h pack, with filler to make it weigh close to stock. That kind of crap is sooo shady.

Edit found it: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1559611

Now I remember why those batteries went in the trash a couple days ago, they did not last long
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] omniphil:
The Gold ebay 3000mah battery has held up well and its pretty good quality construction, even though its really just a 2500mah battery.

The Anker doesn't have enough cycles on it yet to be able to tell...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] vizographic:
Omniphil, appreciate the reply, no hurry on the Ankor info; if you find it holds up to day in an day out use, I'd sure be interested.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] vizographic:
+ 1 Hyperion = trash.

I remember that post, I had already weighed the Hyperion by that time and found it was a full 10 grams less than the stock. So. while I wasn't surprised by his findings, I was... Extra disgusted....

I went back over the post, but I didn't find that the battery was padded for weight but only for volume...in a sad way kind of a shame.. I think I would have had a little more respect for the scam if Hyperion had at least gone to that much trouble.

I have a samsung Galaxy S2 and have been soft-bricked since last Thursday. I am at wits end and am attempting to flash CM9 via odin on the advice of a dev that has been helping me. It is now an almost 45-50 mins since it hung on the flashing of data.img. Has anyone experienced this? Has anyone gotten past this and recovered their phone?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] It_ler:
If download mode is still working, why don't you flash a stock ROM first?

Ok, this would be Android 2.3.6, but you could eliminate custom ROM issues.

And be sure to flash a ROM for your phone (GT-I9100M and not for the GT-I9100).

Good luck !

Hey Guys and respected devs,

I have been using my Nook Tablet 16GB(rooted stock) without a problem since january. I have some games, apps etc and so far i have been perfectly happy with it.

Then recently i was browsing the net using opera and came across a video i wished to download. And until then i had no trouble downloading anything videos, pics,apks etc.... But it came as "download failed" . Since then i have tried various methods ... Using other browsers, default browser, download managers, etc but NONE of them can download the files . They don't even start downloading and say a variant of Download error, unable to download etc .

I have combed google and xda and have come up with nothing even remotely close to solving this problem. Please if anyone has any views, opinions, suggestions they are very welcome.

Btw i can download apps and updates and anything of the sort via any type of market and thats about it.

Regards,

Moxdown
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] old_fart:
well, the first thing that popped into my head was "unknown sources". do you have it turned "on" or has it been clobbered somehow ? this is most strange because you can download but then you cannot download... . are you blocked OTA ? 9.9.9.9 versus 1.0.0.0 ?

hmm, maybe you just need to use 'rom manager' and fix all permissions.

hth.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Cubanluke88:
unknown sources are for app installation

OTA block simply blocks stuff from B&N (same with the version change)

rom manager and permissions have nothing to do with this

hth is not helpful either

@ OP, are these new websites that you are trying to download from by any chance?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] old_fart:
yes, unknown sources is not a good guess. yes, lame. my brain was connecting together... the os cooperates from a known source for goods and does not cooperate from an unknown.

i thought OTA and getting an un-wanted binary update from b&n may have scrambled your os.

i was guess a critical permission got flipped to 'read only' and that was causing troubles. so running a permission fix 'may' help. it helps get rid of force closes...

and then hth stands for 'hope this helps', which was my honest desire. but then @Cubanluke88 is just being a smart a$$ ( once again ) . . . but then he's super smart and maybe has your answer.

.

maybe the best answer is 'taking it back to b&n' and having them reset it.

.

when i was asleep, i thought of another answer. maybe you caught a virus ?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] moxdown:
yup im using ota blocker from unknown sources.. and no i haven't caught a virus :) because i scanned it just a few hours ago just in case ..... Oh? websites like rapidshare, forums etc.... oh and xda of course... still looking through .... i have simply NO IDEA what's wrong...
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Cubanluke88:
I don't know if this is possible on the stock OS, but if you can get into manage apps in settings and perhaps clear data on the browsers and try again, that's what I would try next.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] moxdown:
Will try it and tell you the results ... thanx for the tip :)

EDIT: Tried doing that but to no avail... no difference what so ever. I guess i might just have to flash a brand new rom...

I have had this happen a few times, and although not a big deal as I keep many backups I am just curious more than anything.

Anyway, after doing a backup, and it appears it does it correctly as it goes through the motions and takes a while, when I go to restore a certain back up it says there is a md5 mismatch.

Is there anyway around that? It just seems odd there would be a mismatch upon trying to restore when it would go through the correct motions backing it up.

Just curious

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonathanyong:
Does anyone with a kernel that allows CPU and voltage adjustments know what the lowest stable voltages are for each frequency? It's difficult to test if the voltages are stable across all of the frequencies, which is why I'm hoping others have worked this out already.

Has anyone done research into this and come up with solid numbers? Also, is there an app that stress tests each available frequency? It's pointless using something like antutu to stress test since it will just keep the cpu at my max of 1600mhz, whereas I need to test all of them.

Thanks in advance.

Yup. This is only for the Emmc lockup bug where it affects the data partitions,
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] topprospect:
That would definitely work if the boot partition of the Emmc was intact. I think partition #8. I don't know of a way to redirect the base kernel boot until it starts executing the init scripts.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tpmullan:
In theory wouldn't you just have to change the memory address that the phone goes to when it first boots so it never looks at the original boot partition?

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brian0079:
Gang,

This a little different situation than what I've found here so far. I have a flashed Nook Color running a stable CM7 from the official site.

The other day the battery was low - maybe 13 percent - and it died. I plugged it in, it charged but when I started it up it gets to the CM7 load screen and goes no further. I can get into recovery mode but none of what I've tried works.

As a side note, I have a sideload CM7 SD card from back when I was trying things out and that boots up no problems.

This is the first time I've had issues with the Nook since flashing back in December.

Suggestions?

Brian
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:

For those people who are interested - I am currently using LCD Resolution app from the Market store to keep my phone at 200. Anything less bothers me in some way or another.

In regards to the Dialer/Contacts being off center, I use an app called exDialer + exDialer ICS theme which scales perfectly. I then use an app called Holo Launcher which I believe beats Zeam, Go, and Launcher Pro hands down! This also scales perfectly. Finally, I am running the latest Blazer ROM on GB EL29.

The Market bug is very annoying, but I'm continually doing research on how to get past it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] elterible:
Thank you for the dialer tip! I will update OP with this info. This is very useful knowledge. I started using AOSP roms to avoid annoying dialer bug so this may lead me to rethink what ROM i use and go back to TW based

I didn't feel like reading the previous post but here's how to fix play store dpi issue. Steps 1 & 2 can be done in either order. Doesn't matter. Just be sure to change dpi before market updates

2) uninstall all data and updates to market.

3) reboot phone let play store update.

4) where did my dpi compatability issue go?

I've tried both OP's solution and your solution, but neither is working, guess I'm one of the unlucky ones. It'll be a pain, but whenever I need to download something from the Play Store, I'll have to sit with 240 dpi for a bit, haha.

I got the official car dock for the Evo 4G LTE and mounted it to my windshield. After the phone has been there for maybe 30 min, the LED starts flashing red and green, and it is very hot to the touch. I have to take the phone out of the dock and hold it in front of an A/C vent to get it to cool. It is only in the 70s outside, but my front dashboard is hot as well from the sun.

This happening to anyone else? Is this a phone /dock issue? Or is it simply because it is a black phone in the sun? Regardless, it kind of renders the dock useless if my phone is just going to overheat in it.

Suggestions?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] eXplicit815:
This could very well be because it's in direct sunlight. The only want to see if it continues is to move the dock to a location in your car out of the sun, and see if it continues. Does it happen at night?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mav78249:
I'm in Texas and we are in the 90's right now and mine doesn't overheat like that. I doubt it has to do with the sunlight. I would take it back to Sprint and tell then what's going on.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Robbie_G:
I made a hook-on-a-vent-phone-holder from a coat hanger for my old HTC Hero, but I was really hoping I wouldn't have to do that with this phone. How do you have yours positioned in front of a vent? Are you not using the window suction cup?

The dash board is hot to the touch in my car as well, so I'm sure the sun is at least playing some role (especially with the dock and the phone being black).

Mav78249, I'm surprised you're not having this issue in Texas in the 90's. Is your dash hot? Does the phone feel hot, even if they LED isn't flashing?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mav78249:
Of course the dash is hot. I work outside too and don't like to drive in the ac on the way home so I drive with the windows down. The phone gets warm like 100 degrees which is not bad considering its 94, 95 degrees. Maybe the wind circulating through the car helps. I don't know.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] tmuka:
Could also be related to data uploads or downloads that are maybe setup to only happen while charging? Streaming music? G+ video/pic sync? Some others have reported heat issues related to data use...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wuestsider:
I have found that my phone overheats when I have it in "Car" mode, either using the stock app or "CarHome" app. Apparently it doesn't like running those apps while having the screen and on the charger. If I turn the screen off then its fine, but that kind of defeats the purpose of a car dock/app.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] couragedragon:
If I'm running NAV, Steaming music, charging, and have the screen on permanently, my phone easily gets into the 120 + range and that's not in direct sunlight.

Heck I've had the phone get pretty hot (110 degrees) just running a cpu intensive game in the house.

If your phone is in direct sunlight, it's gonna get really hot. Not to mention, we haven't even discussed who has cases and what type covering their phones as well which will retain even more heat.

I've seen mounted my car dock on an L bracket in front of my vents so I can cool during intense usage.

Here's a link to some pics. I haven't made it pretty yet. I usually run my stuff for several weeks before I shore up all the wires and hide everything behind the dash properly and make a custom plate to cover up the head unit opening and paint the L Bracket I used black.

Great discussion here, and wow [MENTION=4644268]couragedragon[/MENTION] I never even thought to mount it in front of a vent. Duh. Good work, and thanks for the idea!

I can verify (at least with my phone) that this is definitely a direct sunlight issue, and not a problem with the dock, power cord, car voltage, etc. If I'm driving on a cloudy day, or the sun is behind me (or oriented anywhere that the docked phone is in the shade), or at night, my phone NEVER has this issue.

If it's in direct sunlight, or even on a lightly-clouded day, same thing happens. The LED flashes Amber/Green (alternating), charging slows waaay down and the phone gets hot in a hurry.

I've been experimenting with some sort of shroud to shade the phone, but the idea of just putting it in front of the vent sounds a lot smarter than putting an open umbrella on my dashboard ;)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] RP-88:
Same as some others, direct sunlight (yes it happens here lol) and even with cloud cover at times, depending on how much and what the phone is doing at the time. Problem is amplified by heavy usage (Downloading, streaming... apparently "Car Mode" too).

Struggled with the dock for a long time before I gave up on it and in the truck went back to my old setup (solid mounted custom made mount built for my old A900, modified for the EVO LTE) and in the car, a vent clip during warm weather and on the console in front of the shifter and angled for proper viewing. But the car's setup will change once I install a new center stack mount.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] couragedragon:
No problem man. The sun kills the phones ability to dissipate heat especially with GPS and Mobile Data going.

Wouldn't hurt to do a shade as well as the vent :D

I just upgraded to a Note 4 and don't plan on mounting this one. We'll see if that changes!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schmao:
I have a g1 that is about 3 years old or so, and I am having a problem. When the phone is booted up and the screen is off, pressing the power button will turn the screen on, but the back light is off and the phone is unresponsive. If I lock the phone again and unlock it by pushing up the keyboard, the backlight works and the screen works too. If I slide the keyboard down, the back light goes and phone becomes unresponsive. The only way to get the backlight back on is to lock the phone, and unlock it by sliding up the keyboard. I realized that when the back light is off and the phone seems unresponsive (keyboard closed), the touches and button presses are actually recorded, because when I slide the keyboard up, the presses and touches are carried out as they were put in (even though the back light stays off). This has been happening for a few months now. Any ideas?
