[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Greg O:
Do you mean a "Factory data reset" in the settings menu? Won't that wipe out all the apps & data I have on the tablet?

I hoped I wouldn't have to resort to that just to get BT working, especially if it's not a sure fix.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Greg O:
I tested the headsets on my Epic 4G and my wife's Evo 4G both in phone and HQ audio modes. Both worked great.

I tried to "delete" the headset listing by unpairing the headset then turning BT off then on. The listing disappears, but I'm not sure some of that data isn't cached somewhere. I then put the headset in pairing mode, but nothing is searched for by the pad until I turn BT off then on again. When I do it finds it and I can pair it and connect fine, but still no audio.

The play/pause/fwd/back buttons work on the headset to control the playback, just no audio out at all from the TF-300.

Really starting to bug me now.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sevenalive:
My moto stereo headset has the same issue with the tablet. Its a bluetooth issue.

Sometimes the tablet shows connected but won't show bt icon on volume changes. I also lose audio like the op.

Only rebooting the tablet fixes it, hold power button down.

I had a TF100 that did the same thing. So I doubt its hardware, its software related. The headset worked fine when I had a iPhone.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carlosraf20:
Hard Reset This cleans system caches, but does not delete any user data.

Unplug the power cord and shut the unit off. Press and hold the VOL DOWN and then POWER button at the same time for at least 10-12 seconds until after the start-up screen appears and is joined by some small print at the top of the screen, then let them both go. If the TF booted the way it always does, you have not accomplished the task, try again until you have seen the 2 icons in the screen.

After a few seconds you should see a couple of icons in the middle of the screen called "Wipe Data" and "Android". The right "Android" will have a green highlight fading in and out. Wait a few more seconds until the term "Cold Booting Linux" appears in the list near the top of the screens and let it reboot. If you own a keyboard dock be sure you do this with the dock connected.

This process applies to all TF models, however, if your Prime or tf300 is locked up, there is a reset available using the hole just below the microSD slot, this is NOT the same as a hard reset.

I got this info from transformers forum.

The is also the factory reset but you loose all your data.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Greg O:
Huge thanks. The hard reset seems to have fixed it for now. We'll see how it handles it after a few on/off connections with the headset. If it turns out to be a constant problem my wife will definitely not be using the headsets as she has no patience for rebooting the tablet every time it won't connect. Hopefully it will work right from now on.

Thanks again.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carlosraf20:
Glad that i was able to help :good:
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] powell:
The Hard reset procedure helped me, too. I have had exactly the same problem as OP with my TF300T. I checked two my bluetooth headsets - they were both not working.

Anyway, thanks for the help.

Greg O: let me know, if the problem appears to be fixed constantly, or not.

Edit: O.K., unfortunately, this helped me temporarily. After some time of listening, sound disappeared again :(
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lawrence750:
is the bluetooth audio bit enabled and connected when this happens?

as in not just the device being connected, but when its connected tap the little equaliser icon next to it, and check that it says connected to media.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] powell:
I have "Media audio" and "Phone audio" both enabled.

Update about my problem: Yesterday I got the Jelly Bean update OTA (Android 4.1.1) and it seems that "no sound on Bluetooth" problem was solved. I have been listening to the music for some time now and everything works fine (there is a small delay between voice and video on films, but I can live with this).

Happy now.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lawrence750:
good to hear its working now - just in case it happens again, what i mean is to check again those settings when the sound doesn't work and make sure it says connected to media. But hopefully won't happen anyway!
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] feuerball11:
Hi There,

I Have an Asus Transformer (something with 300) and a bluetooth headset.

I Have downlaoded two apps, to route the music to the headset:

1. Bluetooth Manager ICS

the apss says all is fine, but no sound

the headset works normal on handy, and pc.

i have tried hard reset, but nothing. it wont work :(

i only wont to hear music on the go.. can it be so difficult to du that with a bluetooth headset?!?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enop4:
am thinking on getting the Xperia S or the galaxy SIII

but i find both phones ok, but help me which one i should pick!

the SIII has better camara?

on some reviews they said the SIII has better camara.

help or give your opinions
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nelikp:
bigger screen on SIII

sony suck..

they already mention they only support 18 months for the update
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LilBlinx:
Sgs III

Go for the sgs III. The cameras are almost the same, the cpu on the sgs III is faster, more storage, many features, bigger vut not better screen.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] udupa82:
Is you are a Sony lover then either buy Sony S or wait for next Sony handset to come out... Sony's camera is very good.. See the reviews, one of the best out there, probably better than s Samsung, Otherwise go with Samsung SIII
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neoxx3m:
SGSIII is Optimus Prime and Xperia S is Bumblebee, so its ur choice, something fastest on the market or something with soul but fast enough! ;)

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skatin707:
Go for the SGS3. If you need some reasoning, read the article about this phone in the September issue of Maximum PC. They LOVE it, almost as much as I do.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] huy_lonewolf:
I don't think anyone with the right mind would buy any Sony phones right now, they are under-specs handsets with heavy price tags. The only reason someone would buy the Xperia S is because of camera. But the GSIII's camera is also not bad (though I haven't seen any comparison between the 2 phones, probably because the Xperia S is not so popular).

Quick check list:

Battery life: GSIII (much longer battery life and replaceable battery)

Screen: GSIII (the SAMOLED HD is better)

Hardware: GSIII (quad core Exynos is too fast for Snapdragon S3 in Xperia S to handle). Oh, have I already mentioned how outdated the Xperia S is in terms of hardware? Snapdragon S3 is a two years old SOC!!!

Software update: guess which phone will have Jelly Bean first?

And personally, the major disappointment I have with the Xperia S is how Sony screwed up the media playback capability of Snapdragon S3. The same videos that play smoothly on my Sensation (same SoC, snapdragon s3) became pixelated on the Xperia S regardless of players I tried. It's not a common bug but it is a dealbreaker for me.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enop4:
so i will replace my X10 :(

i will get galaxy SIII soon!!

thanks for the replying
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skatin707:
You will be VERY pleased with it. The SGS3 is much better than the HTC One X too.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] shehade08:
First of all how do I get this xda app to show attachments posted by others inside of threads? All the pictures everyone posts are blank on my screen

Second is I'm running on the cm10 ROM and when I try and get a new wallpaper it won't let me crop to make the whole picture a wallpaper it only let's me crop about 50% of the picture. I even saved pictures that others posted in threads that use the same wallpaper on there phone

Any help will be appreciated
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Android_Monsters:
use zedge for your wallpapers

You can download it in the playstore

Fixes your second problem
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] KillaHurtz:
Install quickpic, it will allow you to use the whole wallpaper whether downloaded it from zedge or not.

As for the graphics/images not showing on the app, you just gotta be patient friend they will load eventually.

You do realize there's a specific thread for Task/Ktoonsez GSIII Q&A? That was actually what I meant (the thread where you found my post). Anyway, I went to manage apps, and cleared data for GPS Test, and that fixed it for me. Whichever app you're using, try that. If that doesn't do it, try FasterFix from play store.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DudeWatsThat:
Thank you that thread clearly said AOKP that's why I ignored it as a place to post my question.(Because I'm not on AOKP).

Plus sorry if I bothered you.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RTFOP:
I'm not saying you're wrong, but a lot of this stuff is situational. I think the majority of the frustration people have is when their phones are draining quickly while using basic functions; the reasons why we buy these phones in the first place.

I've tried every gimmick and gadget to get better battery life, but I can't seem to reliably get my phone to drain at much less than 10% an hour, unless I'm just straight up not using it.

I was getting 7-8% on Darkside v8, but since he's taking a break from it I decided to try some other stuff out. That's the best I've had, coming from Juggernaut and DW before.

Same deal with cm9 and AOKP, about 10% an hour with a busy work email, one Gmail account, fair amount of texting, checking my RSS feeds and XDA every hour or so. Screen on automatic brightness.

It's not horrible, but it's not great. Maybe I have a wonky device? Either way, I like having what I use always available, and if this is the battery life trade off for that, I'll deal with it. I live and work in Manhattan so it's not like I'm ever far from a charger.

What am I gonna do, get an iChick phone?

Hell no.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tjbiker031:
I understand what your saying. The point i was trying to get a lot of people was to realize that a lot of wasted power loss comes from apps not allowing the device to sleep as it should. I remember watching my phone draining 20% an hour in airplane mode come to realize later that i had to many widgets refreshing, all sync's on and updating every 30 minutes with other apps constantly active not allowing the phone to hit deep sleep at all. I totally agree about a battery should last a longtime without having to check for wakelocks and whatnot. I think the blame comes from a mixture of poorly written apps, android power management system that's not working efficiently as it should, and a battery that should of been a bit bigger.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RTFOP:
For sure. People need to have reasonable expectations though. If everything is light up like the Vegas strip your phone isn't going to last very long. But if you have everything minimalist and turned off you have an expensive pet rock. I think the best advice you can give is the self diagnostic stuff so people can examine their habits and figure out a fun to battery balance that works for them. The programs you suggested are all good ones that have helped me out at various points.

I've almost chucked my phone out the window because of the damn media process always running ffs.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] snguyen0730:
In other words, don't use your phone. Best battery saver

Sent from Samsung Galaxy SIV
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tjbiker031:
No not saying that at all. But do you really need to have everything on a half hour sync? Actually just a manual sync would greatly improve battery life.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mrrobc97:
I need to throw in Autostarts app. It enables/disables an app start-up on system boot-up. It also enables/disables an apps start-up when certain events happen (like when a charger plugs in it will start-up a certain app on when an app makes another app start-up that you probably don't need on). It really needs to go on your list Biker.

Another thing you forgot to mention is the screen brightness and your choice of the background theme or wallpaper. OK common knowledge you should know by now... BRIGHTER SCREEN = HIGHER BATTERY CONSUMPTION... don't keep it the lowest cuz you're going to end up switching it back and forth depending how bright your surroundings are thus wasting more battery...just keep it on AUTO! Also...do you really need that snow landscape for your wallpaper? Do you have to view your kids everytime you wake-up your phone?:rolleyes:...NO?...then find the darkest coolest wallpaper you could live with. And last go through all your apps and (if the option is there) choose the darkest background theme available, like for the mail, sms/mms, or tapatalk app.

...on another note...YES, I will agree that in order to get maximum life from your battery you will have to sacrifice alot of the stuff that makes your smartphone cool like the amount of widgets you could be running, bright ass screen settings, or that live wallpaper you're running. You also sacrifice instant use of your phone (i.o.w. instead of checking your Facebook widget to see what's up you have to---open notification toggles - enable data/wifi - go to app drawer - open Facebook app - wait for it to load - then see what's up). All that coolness its whats sells a smartphone (see commercials) but it comes at a high battery-drainage price.

My wife has a t989 like me but white and so does her lil' sis. Her setup is identical to mine for the exception of a few apps and that she has a purple version of my Blutiful theme. She's always telling me (or talking **** i.m.o.) about how on her lil' sis phone you are able to view Facebook, YouTube, and News right on her screen (i.o.w. widgets) and not hers and I tell her its not gonna happen cuz I don't want her *****ing later on about how the "phone" sucks cuz the battery lasts half a day JUST like I always hear her lil'sis *****.

...so anyways the point I'm trying to make is that you have to make that choice (coolness vs battery life) or try to find YOUR sweet spot between both of them. Another thing you could do is have a few spare cheap batteries from ebay. They work almost as good as the OEM and for all we know they probably come from the same place and just slap different labels on them. Buy a cheap $3 battery charger also and have them charged and just keep one at home/car/work like that you could swap if the need arises. I also bought a few cheap home/car phone chargers from ebay and also have them at home/car/work. They have all worked good for me w/o any issues. You might catch me with my pants down one day but you will NEVER catch me with a dead phone I promise.:D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Bluntified:
Another thing to note is, using the "kill all" button on your task manager will use more battery. There are apps that need to run in the background, when you close it, it will have to reopen itself and use more battery power.

Altogether, task managers are no good.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tjbiker031:
Thanks mrrobc97, I forgot about all of that. I'll add in when I get home. I used Rom toolbox to kill auto run apps a while back and messed something up somehow. Had to reflash. What app did you use?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tjbiker031:

[HTC EVO 3D] SOUL2SOUL:
Hello!

Maybe i am asking a silly question. Is there a way to make the green led blinking while the phone is sleeping? Because sometimes i do not know if the phone is turned off or just sleeping. :confused:

The second question: is there a camera mod for an unrotted Evo 3d, running ICS, ( i am interested in uncompressed pix and vids feature)? I just wanna know if there is such a mod, because the camera is also 3D, and such a mod may break this interesting feature.

Thank you
[HTC EVO 3D] sitlet:
I don't think so. If there was, you would have to be rooted. Cant you just hit the power button to see if it's on?

You have to be rooted.
[HTC EVO 3D] coal686:
The program Tasker (among other things) has the ability to control the led. So you could set a profile to blink the led when the screen is off. I would think this would decrease battery, but it will do what you wish.

I am trying to buil a cm7 kernel for my conquer 4g. I already downloaded the cm source from wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Building_Kernel_from_source. Than I added my phones config.gz like it says to do. Than I did

make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=$CCOMPILER oldconfig

and kept on pressing enter for the default settings.

And yes I do have the toolchain files and I did this and its in the correct directory.

export CCOMPILER=[extraction directory]/bin/arm-eabi-

Than I edited ARCH ?= and CROSS_COMPILE ?= to the correct settings. (arm, directory)

Than I did

make -j4

and it went good, but it had a couple warnings. Than in the middle of the building it just stops for some reason. Im on ubuntu 10.10 and I already downloaded all the necessary files. When it ended it did not have an error or warning it just stopped. I tried a couple more times with no luck. It has a ARMv7 processor and in build.prop ro.board.platform=msm7k. Any help? Thanks.

How about posting the output then?
[Android] itzdarockz:
Because it's too long for the whole output, it would only be a fraction of the whole. I'll do it again in a bit and try to get the output for you.
[Android] lithid-cm:
Well its either output or guessing. Somewhere the output will have an error, depending on the cores you have the error could be pretty far up and still outputting while its trying to cleanup to kill.

If you are worried about the copy and paste install pastebinit and append it to your make command:

sudo apt-get install pastebinit
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=$CCOMPILER oldconfig |pastebinit

That will automatically upload the output to paste.ubuntu.com and give you a simple url to paste here.
