i have autokiller memory optimizer on my droid x2 and it causes problems with audio and notifications. is there any similar apps?
[Android Apps and Games] flyingwolf:
Memory management apps are useless, uninstall it and let Android do its thing, you will be much happier.
[Android Apps and Games] whojohnjones:
it isnt a ordinary task killer it manages ram. it makes a big difference on my device
[Android Apps and Games] flyingwolf:
No it does not, it is the same as all task killers. All task killers "manage ram". And all of them are scams, it is not needed on Android anymore.

So does a sugar pill, but both work for the same reason.
[Android Apps and Games] whojohnjones:
in autokiller memory optimizer u can manage how much free ram is available always
[Android Apps and Games] flyingwolf:
Why would you want free RAM?

Any RAM which is always available is not being used, as it is not being used it is being wasted, this is like always having a set amount of space available in your gas tank and dumping out any gas that goes above that amount, it is flawed logic.

Please take the 45 seconds it takes to read the top part of this, you are hurting yourself.

[Android Apps and Games] DJxSpeedy:
And how it gets the ram free ?

Right it kills tasks...

What you wanna do with free unused ram ?

Unused ram = dosnt make device faster

You have apps using memory that you need to turn off or stop using, the memory killer is just masking your shoddy use, sorry but the proof is there, you simply refuse to see it.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ThePhoneGeek:
The limitation will be the hardware, the radios in the AT&T/Rogers version will not work with TMO's 4G network.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
Information is conflicting, but some specs for the AT&T One X list the AWS band (1700/2100 MHz) used by T-Mobile for 3G/4G. Its not supported in software, but some have speculated (maybe wishful thinking) that the hardware is there, and something just needs to be changed in software to make it work.

This was the case with the Galaxy Note. AWS is not officially supported, but the hardware is actually there, and one of the folks here on XDA was able to hack it to work.

Its not a sure bet whether such a thing is possible on the AT&T One X. Seems largely speculation for the time being. Unless it really happens, using the One X on EDGE seems like a poor compromise. The One S doesn't have nearly as nice a screen, but same chipset, and still a nice phone. And if I were on T-Mob, I would certainly consider it.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ThePhoneGeek:
Hmm... Ok well I will gladly eat the words as I am all about devices being able to work with the broadest number of carriers...

The ability to do that is rare but perhaps the most recent chipsets have all the radio components there to make it only a SW issue...

I'll happily stand corrected if someone has it working! :)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
This has only been the case on the Galaxy Note, that I'm aware. And a (somewhat skeptical) "maybe" on the One X.

I think its less of a "recent chipset" thing, and more an indication of market forces at the time. My hunch is that it had something to do with the (now defunct) merger deal between AT&T and T-Mobile. As both these phones were being spec'ed and designed around the time the deal was looking like it was going through. These devices would have acted as "bridge" devices for when the AT&T started taking over the T-mobile frequencies.

If the deal had gone through, my guess is that the AWS bands would have been fully supported on these devices, and we would have seen more phones with similar band support.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ThePhoneGeek:
Perhaps but at&t owns no 1700 mhz spectrum but does have some 2100 mhz although a lot less since they gave up some huge chunks in the breakup deal with TMO. I believe though that the way that TMO uses their spectrum for 4G is that one band say 1700 is for download and the other, 2100, is for upload...

Previously the devices for at&t didn't have the ability to do the 1700 band but most had the 2100 capability since it is also used internationally.

So if it does have the expanded radio capability it would be interesting to see if someone could disable the unused radios to assist with battery life... With so many smart people here I am sure that already is happening but just my curiosity. TMO users would want to disable the low band radios 700/850/900 since TMO USA doesn't use those so why waste power on them, AT&T users would want to disable the 1700 band, etc...

Again probably already being done and I am just getting to the party... ;)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kleeman7:
There had been a few phones this had worked on, sgs2, lg thrill, the note as stated before. I think the radio hardware just needs to be told what bands to look for, but I would be way wrong.

Google is releasing 4.1 goodness... what does it mean for our tablet who just got creamed ;)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] FateZero:
It means nothing yet, as we still dont have ICS Source and with out it no proper wifi or screen and a few other things, I can build a JB rom but it will be full of bugs at best.

I am talking a build with a fresh kernel. Using the current one might work and then it might not. I would like to be able to do a full rom not just an Install stock ICS and flash over tht as that may also cause problems.

Bottom line we need source.

I love to flash different roms from the devs here on this sensation forum, but when I do try anything thats AOSP Or that AOKP even miui it seems like my battery drains faster then it does on the htc stock roms. I would love to try to Jelly Bean roms that im sure are gonna start popping up very soon but afraid they will give me the same results in battery. anything i could do to fix it?
[HTC Sensation] Sloopjoshb:
After every new rom flash you should drain your battery to under 10% then give it a full charge and wipe the battery stats from recovery. This is to calibrate your battery. By doing this the new rom gets to know your battery more or less, and will give you a much more accurate usage and drain.
[HTC Sensation] moto211:
Please stopping spreading this FUD. Don't wipe battery stats unless you have noticed a decrease in battery life that would give you reason to believe that your battery needs recalibration. Wiping stats too much does not extend battery life. If anything, it hurts it.
[HTC Sensation] Sloopjoshb:
I was merely passing along what helped my battery drain issues when dealing with a new rom and faster than normal battery drain. I have seen countless times this recommended in the forums here.
[HTC Sensation] kgs1992:
I beg to differ; I've experienced it.

Here's something to read:

http://www.guidingtech.com/12739/android-battery-calibration-what-how/

The reason you wouldn't have experienced this problem is probably because some ROMs contain a "battery auto-calibration script".

My knowledge of this is quite limited, but I think the auto-calibration script is only present in Sense based roms.
[HTC Sensation] Sherlocks:
battery drain

maybe i think your battery is old.

sensation is eating many battery.so your battery have many battery cycle.

If your battery is one year, you recommend to get a battery
[HTC Sensation] Rusty!:
Please stop spreading this FUD. Batterystats.bin has nothing to do with your battery life in any way, shape or form. It is there solely for reporting purposes.
[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
It doesnt make the battery last longer, that is true. But it absolutely can help the battery percentage to be more accurately reported.

And since the phone will auto shut down at 1% battery, accurately reported stats CAN make the phone stay on longer even if nothing has been changed about how much current flows in and out of the battery.

That said, you cant judge battery life on a new rom for several discharge cycles. When I flashed cm9 the first day the battery lasted 12 hours. The second day it was 24. Now its 40 on average. Give it a week or so before deciding battery life suck.

[HTC Sensation] Rusty!:
No it can't. It has nothing to do with the battery %age.

It's (only) purpose is for the battery use info in settings.
[HTC Sensation] V1k70r:
What Rusty said. The file gets deleted after every charge to 100%, or drain to 1%. Then it gets made again. The only thing it does is provide the battery statistics in 'Settings' under 'Battery'. This myth was even listed on the front page.
[HTC Sensation] futty:
with my myt4g when i had miui battery life was good without even waiting a few cycles. the sensation any stock or cooked sense roms i only notice a ggood battery life.i guess i'll just try to do what was suggested wait a few cycles before deciding battery life on the rom is no good
[HTC Sensation] moto211:
http://www.androidcentral.com/wiping-battery-stats-doesnt-improve-battery-life-says-google-engineer

I stand partially corrected as I misremembered the content of this article. But I still stand by the fact that recommending a batterystats wipe after every flash to maximize battery life is complete FUD. The best thing you can do if and only if you suspect that your battery has become miscalibrated is to run it completely dead and then completely charge it without unplugging it until its done.
[HTC Sensation] Rusty!:
Correct, however that's not what you said, hence my repeat of your comment ;)
