[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rhino474:
mine does. do you know how to fix it.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] BTJustice:
Yes but it is a pain and takes several tries. I had this problem a few days ago and this was the only way I could get around it.

I HOPE YOU HAVE DATA BACKED UP! That's your responsibility and not mine. If this ruins your phone then tough. I will not be held responsible for a bricked phone...

First off, assuming the bootloader is UNLOCKED, install the ALL IN ONE tool on your computer (it actually runs from a folder and doesn't really install which is good)...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1498003

Open it, then...

Remove any bought protective case (it may mess with the buttons).

Unplug charger.

Remove battery.

Wait 5 minutes.

Reinstall battery.

Plug in USB cable from the computer.

Hold down the VOLUME DOWN button and then the POWER button.

It should boot into the bootloader. On the ALL IN ONE tool, flash recovery to CWM. Once complete, click on "Boot into Recovery".

If the phone does not boot into Recovery, flash recovery to WCX.

If the phone reboots into Recovery, you will want to do a factory reset, wipe cache, go to mounts and format them all. Then mount it as USB and copy/paste a ROM over and flash to that ROM. I like Virtuous Inquisition v4.0.2.1.

Good luck.

I cant, as the title says, get videos to play completely smooth on my fire. I know I am picky about stuttering when I am watching videos, but several of the videos I have converted are clearly not smooth on my kindle(they are on my pc).

I mostly tried with different versions of gedeROM and mxPlayer, but i have also tested with some other roms and videoplayers, and its almost the same. In handbrake I have tried to adjust codecs for video and sound, and bitrate and container. Some of the rendered videos are worse than other, but none are perfect.

Is there anybody which are experiencing the same problems? If not; what setting/players do you use?

I am using hw decoding and no overclocking
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lotek:
Have you tried using other files you haven't encoded yourself? I stream video over a home network with Bsplayer lite and samba share and a wide variety of formats and encoding profiles work fine.

I have used Handbrake though, the Ipad (1st gen) preset works well and is a good starting point if you're one of those people that has to tweak the hell out of everything :).
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HetrTiXc:
Lotek, you are my hero! Thanks:D bsplayer worked way better than mx and moboplayer. The ipadpreset worked pretty well as well. Now i can enjoy videos on my Kindle

I have an HTC Amaze that every time I turn on the phone it asks for an network unlock code. I bought the code, and the phone accepts the code, but after it restarts it asks for the the unlock code again. I reflashed the phone to ICS found here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1335368 but that did not solve the problem.

Back up your data and do a factory reset. Did you biy the phone from T-Mobile or used? I would do a factory restore and see what happens.

I have done a factory reset, restored to ICS, and tried 2 different tmobile sims and a spare att sim i had lying around and it all had the same problem. I would send it in for warranty, but i bought it on ebay.

I guess this could go into any category for any modern telephone, but since I am the proud owner of the I9300 I choose to post here.

The last few days I have been (foolish) enough to charge my in a way I have understood can decrease the battery's lifetime. For instance, I charged it from 9 % up to only 84 %, and the other day from 17 % to 70 %. These are merely examples, but I hope you know what I mean.

Will this damage my phone's battery and lifetime, as this being a "modern" battery?

Thanks for answering!

Charge ur dvice when its below 20% and try to charge till 100 if u can otherwise its ok no harm.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] searley:
Modern lithium ion batteries dont suffer memory effect like the old nicads used to

Many people recommend not letting the battery go too low if you can help it

I have always put it on charge when i get home from work, regardless of how much charge there is, and imtake it off charge when i need the phone
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
The idea is to charge it as and when. Don't get all precious about "I must charge it at xx%". This is a myth. Simply charge it as and when you need it.

It doesn't matter if the battery goes low. True, depleting a li-on battery to 0% will do sever damage to the battery. You need to keep a good 15% charge in the battery BUT what your phone reports as 0% will be that 15%. The batteries are designed to keep that buffer so that it is impossible for you to break it by letting it run "dead". These are limitations built into the battery at manufacture so there is nothing to worry about.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ksmith17:
For some reason, when I set the "keep WIFI on when asleep" setting to "never", my wifi still takes up 80% off my battery. Does anybody know how I can use Tasker to make my wifi shut off as soon as the screen is off, and turn on as soon as the screen is turned on? I can not find anything that works!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hbk19:
Make a new profile, add event, display, screen on. Make a new task, then choose wifi on under net. Make a second profile, event, display, screen off. New task, task, wait, add a certain amount of time to wait before turning wifi off (I'd do 5 mins), then add wifi off.

This should do it, though I'm telling you this out of memory. If anything, it's similar.

Hello everyone

As you know PICASA is part from google and can be reached in the web using the G-account.

Try this.

1. Go back to 240 and reinstall market to make it work correctly. This is important that it works perfectly.

2. Now go back to the screen where you are able to uninstall play store and press on clear data.

3. Change ur density to 160. And open play store. Press accept.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Herbert Birdsfoot:
Car bluetooth works fine for both audio and making/receiving phone calls, except for one issue:

The phonebook syncs but is ordered LASTNAME, FIRSTNAME. More problematically, there's no indication of which number for a contact I'm viewing (e.g. Work, Fax, Mobile)

My previous phone (original Samsung Epic) displayed contacts thusly:

Joe Shmo/F 800-555-1000

Joe Shmo/W 800-555-1001

whereas my Evo LTE 4G displays:

Shmo Joe 800-555-1000

Shmo Joe 800-555-1001

I could get used to just the last name/first name issue, but when I mistakenly dialed a fax machine this morning is what finally put me over the edge to post here.

On my phone, contacts are already sorted First - Last so that doesn't seem to carry over. I also can't find anything in my car bluetooth settings to control this. I have a Volvo 2012 C30 if it matters, but like I said this worked as desired on my previous phone so I don't think it's a car setting.

Thanks in advance for any insights!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] megabiteg:
It would be interesting to get another friend of yours that has an HTC phone (not LTE) and see if you get the same results, it could be a HTC way of transmitting the information to the car head or it could be how your car head gets the info from all phones. I don't believe that there is a fix for that.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Herbert Birdsfoot:
Thanks for the suggestion. I'll try that in the next couple days and report back.

One interesting additional data point is that the call log (recently dialed/received/missed calls) shows names in the correct First/Last order. Again though, not sure whether that's the phone or the car driving that display...

Cyanogenmod CM9 Changelog app Bbqlog

BBQLog is the best official CyanogenMod Log around! Browse the changes online at http://changelog.bbqdroid.org/ or right from this app!

Get the changes for all CyanogenMod-enabled devices, and check all the latest nightlies available!

All devices with official nightlies are supported.

This changelog is better than the older ones because this uses the github api to get changes rather than gerrit. Gerrit does not include upstream merges in the log so you could miss very important features (such as themes engine, 4.0.4, kernel changes, that have all been upstream merges).

The source is available at https://github.com/BBQDroid/BBQLog

BTW, there is an easter egg ;)

Features :

- List nightlies for all devices

- List all CyanogenMod changes

- List devices' next nightlies changes

- List devices' specific nightly changes

- Tablet and phone UI!

Latest Version:

1.1.2

IMPORTANT :

If you are having issues with the app in certain devices, please upload the LogCat as dev would like to review and update with the fixes. Thank you

Hi,

Great app, thanks guys!!

Would like to request a feature though please. Can you set it up so clicking on a change takes you to the relevany page on Github, like the web version of BBQ Log does.
[Android Apps and Games] brealorg:
Question: Take the HTC Desire (bravo GSM), this has no CM9 nightly build.

The latest edition to Desire is cm-7-20120617-NIGHTLY-bravo.zip and not the changes that is listed in changelog.bbqdroid.org/#bravo/cm9/next

Perhaps there should be a way to specify this?
[Android Apps and Games] iXNyNe:
First impressions;

I agree with the post above that tapping a change should take us to github

Also I've notice, using the website if there have been no changes since the last nightly when viewing "next nightly" the site will say so. The app on the other hand shows a loading spinner and sits there looking like its eventually going to do something.

And last, I'm not a huge fan of the current device selection method. Tiny bar up top to scroll between manufacturers is a bit ungraceful. I know its a common theme for apps to have this type of look, but its associated with "tabs" in a program not to narrow results from a list.

I'm glad to see this app and I love the website :) keep up the good work.

Edit

Also download links would be cool (or just some way to go to the download page from the app)
[Android Apps and Games] movieaddict:
ty so much!! looking for easter egg as we speak...
[Android Apps and Games] XpLoDWilD:
We'll be cleaning up and enhancing the app starting next week. Hopefully we will sort out the remaining bugs and crashes (that seems to be happening only on Gingerbread!).

We might also drop CM7 support completely.

We'll be adding also:

- GitHub links

- Direct download of a nightly (and eventually automatic flashing through CWM)

- New nightly notification

And a few various features.

Last, we're thinking about distributing a paid version with other features and no ads.

Oh, and there is no easter egg in this current version... But who knows about the future? :)

I rather have slow steady unlimited than capped super sonic speeds
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] LordLugard:
If those are the speeds they're getting with nobody on the network, then that's poor.

Imagine when it actually launches, even in only the 6 initial markets and millions actually start using it...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] revamper:
I think it will hold up
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iniz94:
I think so too. The network is still growing so I doubt it'll be that slow.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] StrAuberries:
Plus, once your above a consistent 4-5Mbps that holds while actually moving itll only ever make a noticable difference whike downloading ROMs, and that will still be WiFi recommended.

Those speeds arent good at all though, my WiMAX is right there with it. The difference will be in the connectivity while mobile.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wickid_d:
I'll have to disagree on a couple points. The truly unlimited data was the first enticing thing to bring me to Sprint in the first place. Second, was the fact that they have the least demanding credit assessment. AT&T wanted me to pay a deposit of $146+, more or less, asking for my landline that I owe them on still. Verizon? Don't get me started there.. after my credit assessment through them, they wanted over $1G for the deposit.. I laughed and immediately went to AT&T's go phone at that time. Limited in data, yes, but the only way I could get on a cell with poor credit, as Sprint was wanting a $100 deposit, not bad, but being unsure of where my next funding was coming from, this did not bode well. It was a couple years before I tried Sprint again, and found out, not only did I have no deposit this time, I could trade in my old AT&T go phone, and got a nice credit towards a descent phone within my price range, the Nexus S 4G. On top of that, Sprint works with several companies to offer an employment discount, mine being 17%, something AT&T has abandoned for a LOT of employers.

Now, let's talk about customer service. IMHO, Sprint is unmatched in providing excellent customer service (in fact, I just found out recently, they've been ranked #1 in this department). Something you won't find with the other 2. They let me know of services they offer, that in order to get it out of AT&T or Verizon, you have to go through an area manager - not something a LOT of people want to deal with. Verizon? The sales rep that ran my credit couldn't understand half of what I was saying. With Sprint, I have only gotten a foreign rep* ONE time (out of the maybe, 15, times, I've had to call in), and they STILL were able to CLEARLY understand the problem I was having and easily helped me to resolve it.

So the bottom line here is, they have too many ups to have the down of their technology being a little behind, to lose too much of a customer base.

I know your article is put together from research and comment follow-ups to the testing articles, but it is still a good write-up, nonetheless.

BTW, if you've looked a little more recently, July 15th is the rollout date for the above mentioned cities, for LTE. Fortunately, I just happened to be in Metro ATL.

Well, that sums up my rebuttle. (however, that's spelled) Please don't take it personally. I'm just preaching from personal experience.

Peace,

~WickiD_D~

* edited to add: I mean no disrespect, no racism, and no stereo-typing in any way. I just think that there are a LOT of people who will agree that there is a natural language barrier that can occur when calling a customer service line, and it makes it very difficult to resolve customer service issues, at those times, for both the caller and the rep, because of it. I sincerely apologize if I offended anyone in any way, because I know we all come from different parts of the world in this forum, and would never intentionally want to hurt anyone here..
