[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] truthlesshero:
thanks...looks legit, i'll try it out!
[HTC Rezound] davidetkin511:
My battery life is ridiculous. It doesn't use that much when the screens off but when it's on it uses 10% in about 15-20 minutes. I'm on a sense 4 rom and on senseless it's not much better. Even if I'm streaming music with the screen off, it's okay. It seems the screen is using a massive amount. Is there anything I can do? Thanks
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
Nope. Thats typical.

You'll get around 4 hours or so of continuous screen-on time, and thats IF you start with a full battery...
[HTC Rezound] antp121:
i get 2 hrs screen on. less if im playing games, currently im obsessed with dead trigger. ive been playing with my phone plugged in....
[HTC Rezound] metalmike6:
You can try slim rom. It worked a little for me. I have the same issue you're describing. Tho for me I also get drain while the screen is off as well due to being in a poor reception area most of the day. Also make sure ur brightness is no higher than 30%. Its just the phone man. The screen is a hog. Honestly I've Bern wondering if there's a way to turn off every other pixel on a hardware level or something cause frankly its ridic.
[HTC Rezound] cpurick:
Yep, the screen's the culprit, and it's pretty bad. Try JuiceDefender. If you get one of the advanced versions you can really conserve battery power while the phone's not in use, which will extend the power available for screen-on use. Also, you can reduce the CPU speeds a bit, which will also reduce draw and lower the heat.

I use JD Ultimate. My idle/standby time is now very nice, but as others have said there's only about 4 hours of use with the screen on.

I keep hoping the reason for the ICS release delay is because they're working on battery life issues. :sigh:
[HTC Rezound] davidetkin511:
Thanks guys. I guess it just isn't great on battery life. I've tried juice defender and stuff like that but i was never a fan. I'll give it another try. It sucks to have 50% and the next time I look it's at 40... Haha. Is auto brightness better that doing it yourself?
[HTC Rezound] I Am Marino:
Turn off any auto syncing and location services if they're not needed.
[HTC Rezound] jmorton10:
I wouldn't bother, JD has never worked well at all in the Rezound.

I have one of the paid for advanced versions of JD and I don even bother installing it anymore. I think my battery life was actually worse when running that.

My solution now is to use a mugen 4000 battery. That battery lasts so long I don't even bother to set a screen timeout anymore.
[HTC Rezound] davidetkin511:
Do any of those battery saving apps work?

I'm not crazy about big batteries. How is their 1900 one?
[HTC Rezound] DertyDOH:
I've got about 15 hours once off newts sense 4 rom but with like 2 hours screen time. Screen time is really all that matters in deciding if ur battery lasts 5 hours or 15, unless u have things like music going on while the screen is off, but 2 hours or so is about all the screen time I can get
[HTC Rezound] dyetheskin:
about 4 hours screen on with standard and 6 hours with ext battery
[HTC Rezound] Fastbird:
Same here, I've gotten up to 14-15 hours on a single charge, but with twoish hours of screen time. Other than the screen being a battery murderer on this phone, I've noticed that having poor reception really wreaks havoc on the battery also. I live in the sticks of PA where I'm in a crossover area, and continually switch between 2-4 bars signal of 1x, 3G, and 4G. And if I don't have a stable signal for a while, the phone will actually heat up and start discharging the battery due to constant searching for a signal. Sitting at work, full strength 4G signal, it only heats up when the screen is on for an extended period of time.
[HTC Rezound] cpurick:
JuiceDefender works fine on the Rezound. The problem is that the Rezound doesn't benefit from JuiceDefender as much as other phones do, mainly because it suffers from a different problem than other phones.

JuiceDefender's strategy is to shutdown nearly every radio and process in the phone when the screen is off and there's no active communications. This works, in the sense that if you turn off the screen with 98% power, you can turn it back on a couple hours later and the phone will still have 94% battery remaining. You won't get that kind of battery life if you're running a bunch of widgets and syncing email without JD.

But the Rezound's incredible screen (and even now it remains one of the very highest quality displays in the industry) draws a lot of juice when it's running. Not coincidentally, this is also the time when the dual cores are running at maximum speed, and the heat you feel on a Rezound that's been screen-on for a few minutes is the milliamps getting sucked from your battery.

Still, JuiceDefender can help here, too. You can tinker with the brightness curve to reduce your backlighting even with the dimmer set to "Auto," and you can tinker with the CPU speeds and the governor strategy. The phone does not need to run both CPU cores at full speed to feel responsive, and yet that's what it does by default. In the Ultimate version, anyway, JuiceDefender does a good job of capping that. In fact, with the right settings I can operate my phone indefinitely without overheating it. And any heat you can't feel is energy that's staying in the battery.

JuiceDefender does work. But it helps to have reasonable expectations. That display does draw a lot more current than most other phones, and this does limit your screen-on time no matter what else you do to conserve power.
[HTC Rezound] SirSigma:
I never really cared for JuiceDefender back when I used it on my Evo 4G. It seemed to just barely save me any battery and having to wait for the radios to turn back on after every unlock was annoying me.

I will suggest that if you have the Facebook app and you're regularly using it, it might be taking up tremendous amount of battery. If you want to keep using it, at least disable it from syncing.

Also, TurboProp works pretty nice in extending my battery life. I don't think it's just a placebo, either. I can go over 24 hours on a single charge thanks to it, and that's for the stock battery, too.
[HTC Rezound] patrickgerry:
Very good explanation cpurick. Totally agree with your assessment that the cpu cores need to be capped. Do you mind sharing your JD settings?

Trying to see if the phone is available but it saids pre-order? So even though I place the order I still have to wait until the phone is available? It doesn't say when.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JuggZaPoppiN:
So, I rooted my GS3 with this method http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XoEVD...ure=plpp_video

Everything went perfectly and was successfully rooted.

I then made a backup of my phone.

I tried installing a rom and it had errors, so I restored my phone and it was successfully stored and hit restart phone.

Thats where I am at now. The phone shut off, and wont turn back on. I have it on the charger and there is no charging light, nothing. tried pulling the battery, entering recovery. Nothing works.

I have no idea what happened or how to get my phone back on.

Please help.

Thank you.

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcfiddish:
I think I have done something quite stupid. I have a T Mobile Galaxy Tab (SGH-T849) running Froyo. It was completely stock and I had not rooted it.

I was curious to try Cyanogenmod, so I followed the instructions under "Installing the ClockworkMod Recovery" here:

wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_Tab_(GSM):_Full_Update_Guide

Even though the directions said it was for a Galaxy Tab on the stock 2.3 release, I forged ahead installed the ClockworkMod recovery image using Heimdall.

The tablet now does not get past the T-Mobile boot screen. I did not backup the original kernel.

I am not normally this stupid! I don't know if I can go to stock Gingerbread using the overcome.net guide as my tablet was not rooted.

Is there any way to restore my original kernel and start again?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] priyana:
I don't think you need to root.

You can use overcome method.

I believe Overcome only ask you to root first to make sure you don't have protected bootloader and to backup using Titanium Backup.

You don't need all that now.

Just go ahead and flash GB Stock Safe

using heimdall will be:

1) naturally unpack the GB_Stock_Safe_v5.tar

2) go to download mode

3) heimdall flash --repartition --pit ./gt-p1000_mr.pit --factoryfs ./factoryfs.rfs --cache ./cache.rfs --dbdata ./hidden.rfs --primary-boot ./boot.bin --secondary-boot ./Sbl.bin --param ./param.lfs --kernel ./zImage

4) at this point you can reboot to the stock rom.

I like heimdall a lot compared to Odin.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcfiddish:
Unfortunately, that did not work. I get this error:

Uploading PIT

ERROR: Failed to confirm end of PIT file transfer!

PIT upload failed!

Ending session...

Rebooting device...

And then the tablet just displays the T-Mobile screen. Is there something else I can try?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] priyana:
what if you do it without pit ?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcfiddish:
Doing this with the --verbose flag gives this:

Uploading PIT

I am doing this on a Mac and I see that this is a problem with the OS X version of Heimdall. I have an old Windows XP machine I can try to use.

Let me try that before omitting the PIT file.

Thanks!
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcfiddish:

BTW, don't use latest heimdall (1.3.2?)

use 1.3.1 I think

Edit: sorry, at in Mac use 1.3.0

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1655689&page=6

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcfiddish:
This looks promising! I installed heimdall 1.3.0 on my Mac and was able to install everything successfully, then the tablet rebooted. It went to the recovery screen and I selected the reboot option.

It's been on the Samsung logo for about 20 minutes now. I don't know how long it will take but I'll let it sit overnight.

Thanks so much for your advice!
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] priyana:
Not quite right.

Mine reboot to setup wizard upon flashing.

You did the complete parameters like I put there?

Do wipe all cache and data.

If still no go, reflash.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcfiddish:
Okay, I think that did the trick! I wiped the data and cache, and now it looks like everything is working! I will have to flash the T-Mobile modem file as well.

imagine if we don't help them out. The SGT7 will be collecting dust.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcfiddish:
Priyana, if it hadn't been for you, my next step would have been shipping my Tab off to Samsung to be reset! As yappoe said, I can't thank you enough!

Something odd - even though I wiped the caches, and did a data/factory reset, much of my user data was on the tablet, such as pictures and some books I had downloaded. This was fortunate as I hadn't backed anything up, but it was curious.

I will make a backup before I work up the courage to flash ICS! Thanks again!
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] priyana:
Hmm, I have never seen data survived a format.

However, having said that, I have proven to myself that when I did restock from AOKP mtd from, back to gb-stock safe using heimdall with pit file, and my internal SD intact.

People told me flashing with pit file ensure everything on internal SD is wiped out because it was repartitioned, but definitely not mine.

But, I heimdall flash and immediately flash overcome kernel without booting into the gb rom.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] btmullins:
I installed cm9 on my samsung galaxy tab 2 7 and am really digging it. I'm really new to the whole cyanogenmod and android tablet thing. I have performed a factory reset, but there seems to still be things on the device taking up space.

With only 8 gigs of space to start with space is at a premium, so is there anything i can do to safely wipe the whole thing and start from a fresh install? Is this even possible?

Any space saving advice is welcome.

[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] focasam:
I guess you could try before installing, do a factory reset in Stock ROM, that will format your Sdcard and give you more space... Don't forget to do a TB backup...
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MultipleMonomials:
I have only 1.5 gigs on my Fascinate, but I am only using about 800mb. Android apps do not take up very much space at all. Also, forgive me if I misinterpret your question, but the space is taken up by your /system and /data partitions, which eat into the 8 gb.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] btmullins:
Um... In my haste I did neglect to do a backup. Fortunately everything seems to be in working order. I am using CWM to do a backup now.

Is there a reason I should use TB to do a backup instead of CWM?

I'm still really new to this, I'm just glad I didn't screw anything up on my first try.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] commanlin:
As long as you use it only, TB backup should be functionally equivalent to a CWM NAND backup. But if you upgrade to another TAB, only TB backup could be easily transferred to thew new TAB. CWM NAND backup could note be used on the new TAB.

Hello everyone! I'm using latest's sirkay's kernel which gets up to 1.6ghz oc,i wanted to know if i could increase the steps to increase the oc,so i could test if i can achieve more than 1.6ghz! Is there a way to do it? Thank you :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] KristianKenneth:
There is, build a kernel yourself.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] justmpm:
LOL....too true....

But anyway, it is craziness to overclock the RAY even to 1.6 GHz....the power dissapted by the cpu is: C x f x V x V (p = power, C = capacitance, f = frequency, and V = voltage)....the ray is rated at 1 GHz frequency and 1200 mV...so assuming you can get 1.6 GHz to be stable @ 1200 mV...you are still talking about a 60% increase in power...which means a lot more heat, which means your cpu decays faster....which means you will be need a new phone sooner.

The insidious part is that your phone probably won't fry in a few seconds , you will probably won't even notice it for a while, until one day, you start getting a lot of FCs, random reboots, and other signs of instability....the good news is that SONY is making a crapload of new phones to choose from.....

Please don't say that the chipset is the same in the arc and they can OC to 2.2 GHz.....the arc can tolerate a greater load because its design allows for greater heat dissipation....mostly because all the components aren't jammed on top of each other.....
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Wolf80:
How do I build a kernel from myself? :p

I'm not sure if the sdcard is the same block device on most ICS dists but you can find your device by running:

Why all the cm9 "addicts" ignore the question: how to change fonts in cm9??
[HTC One S] spiderx_mm:
Install Rom Toolbox or Type Face or any other font changer app you find in the market.

if you want to go hard way, those fonts are under /system/fonts. You can delete one of the fonts (e.g. Roboto or DroidSansFallback) and put your desired font there, then rename the font as exactly as the font you deleted. (don't forget to backup).
[HTC One S] dasistsparta:
All the market apps soft brick the phone they dnt support ics. The problem with system fonts is that there are plenty of fonts in that folder and among them is roboto. Question is, how does system know which font you want to set as default...

Replace it with font of choice, but change filename to match Roboto, etc.

Hi everyone

I have one question about the HP touch pad, personally i got an Asus transformer and i want to buy a Chinese tablet for cheap for my little son, while searching in some stores i found a touch pad in good condition and for a fair price. the question is the touch worth to get? i found in forums that we can install android in it, so my son can play all the games used to play in Asus transformer. so what you think guys HP touch pad or a brand new Chinese tablet?

thanks
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chicle_11:
With the touchpad you have the advantage of dual booting (once you install android). WebOs is great, I spend almost half my time there. It doesn't have as much app selection as android, but that's why you have a dual boot tablet..... :)

I own a couple of cheap chinese tablets, and there is no comparison, you'll be using the tp yourself and leaving the Asus for your son....:)
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Topol-Ms:
thanks
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bharakrama:
A minor issue with Android on the Touch pad is that at the ,moment the microphone and the camera doesn't work. Other than that Android on the Touchpad is awesome. Once you use WebOS you will realize that this is how a tablet is supposed to be used but I found that there really isn't much to do in WebOS, which is quite sad, and that's why I mainly use Android. Also if your Asus is rooted then get Titanium Backup and just restore the apps he uses on there onto the Touchpad so he won't lose his place in the games he plays or lose the settings in the apps he uses.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pug_ster:
I think there is also an issue with the touchpad which drains about 15-20% battery a night while not in use. It does not have this issue while running webos.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NapalmDawn:
WHile the camera doesn't work (and there is no eta on it), the mic in fact DOES work. I have tested it with Groove IP, Andy, VLingo and Alice. This is a recent development from the CM9 official nightlies. Here is proof. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DzpCNzDdjAQ

Since the TP is not an official android device, occasionally some apps and games (more so on games) will say not compatible. This is easily fixed with some build.prop tweaks though. It has no removable SD card storage so you will not be able to expand. There is also a program limit that, when you hit it, the TP gets a little testy. If you stay under it, you're fine. Those aside, it's a GREAT and peppy device especially if bumped up a bit via set cpu or something similar. Unlike another poster, I spend 95% of my time in android and not webOS. Since it dual boots, it's handy because you'll have storage access even if one of the OSes is crashing. BT keyboards work as do BT gamepads like the PS3 one (and even a Wii one I think). Also, the TP benchmarks pretty well.

One of the major reasons why you should do a rooted TP over a chinese tablet is market access. Chinese tabs are notorious for having ultra limited apps available unless you do a market unlocker.

Edit-forgot. With my screen off at night, I only lose about 1% an hour at best. I've seen reports of the major drops but it doesn't happen to me.
