[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] malibu_23:
Lol at the gnex being underpowered but runs circles around the gs3 with its JB update. Proving software is what's important. You guys have a souped up cam/2x the ram and a newer chipset and still complain. Ive never heard any1 say the s3 is underpowered til this thread. Smh.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Wolfbeef123:
yeah and unfortunately with all these variety of devices, i don't think many apps actually use the full power that is capable of these high end phones.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Wolfbeef123:
i isnt underpowered...lol

nut coming from jelly belly on the Gnex... it feels slow. lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] alanthemanofchicago:
As someone who has a sprint gnex, it doesn't seem underpowered at all. I run JB paranoidandroid and there is never even a hiccup. But alas, Sprint's gnex and s3 are devices without networks ATM.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] terrapin69:
I've rooted it, yes.

never encountered so many problems as I have trying to get a ROM or update on this tablet. I went to older threads and the links are either broken or dead.

Is there ANY current guide on what I need to do to successfully flash a custom ROM on this?

I installed CWM but it doesn't boot into that either. ODIN recognizes it just fine, but I can't upgrade/patch the BL

help please!
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheATHEiST:
After a quick search I found your answers. You should do the same.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] terrapin69:
you're right

but I did look till i was at my wit's end - Instead of being a douche, how bout just helping out
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheATHEiST:
Firstly I wasnt been a douche and I

WAS

helping you out. The best way to learn is to do research, search and read as you pick up allot along the way. I havent got a T849 and didnt even know what it was until I did a quick look.

For GB just go to the Overcome thread then read and follow the PDF guide to flash kernel/rom etc.

For ICS follow the Overcome Guide and then put the latest CM9 nightly or other ICS based rom on your SD card along with gapps and flash them both (rom first) with recovery mode.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] priyana:
If you have search the word T849 you will find so many posts.

Including those that I replied to, that has point blank answer.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheATHEiST:
Indeed. User obviously didnt search/search properly as I found the answer in seconds by simply using that keyword.
[LG Nitro HD] miguellopez12:
So I have unbricked my phone and have flashed cm9 and fullthrottle now I'm on the official ics from att. My phone has been dying quickly. I checked my battery stats and seen android OS in my number 2 spot. Today I unplugged my phone and didn't use it for two hrs and it went down 5% I checked and android os stayed away 1 hr and 53 mins.
[LG Nitro HD] miguellopez12:
This is the screen shot after having it on for 8 hrs and I was at work and I only used a couple times
[LG Nitro HD] Mes3:
Same thing on my end. LG really screwed this up.
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
You need to install the better battery stats app and see which app is giving you wake locks.
[LG Nitro HD] kenship:
Yep, install better battery stat, it's even free for XDA member, search the app forum.
[LG Nitro HD] dnorthington:
Also, there's a thread called "known identified battery drainers" in the ATT GS2/I777 forums that has some good, universal stuff on interpreting wakelocks.
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
any luck solving this?
[LG Nitro HD] miguellopez12:
I tried flashing this from 3 times wiping everything and still get the android os taking most of my battery. I tried better battery stats but can really interpret it. I don't have facebook link or instagram. I'll post pics of better battery stats.
[LG Nitro HD] drumist:
Did you flash through CWM or using LG's official tool from a computer?
[LG Nitro HD] miguellopez12:
O flashed through CWM
[LG Nitro HD] drumist:
I'd suggest disabling stock apps you don't need, I guess. Most people seem to think the battery life on that ROM is decent.
[LG Nitro HD] miguellopez12:
I always disable the att apps that come with the stock from. I get about 10 hrs on medium use with the extended battery. If this was fixed then I would get way more
[LG Nitro HD] agezik90:
same issue

I never even thought to check into that as I have also had bad battery life, but figured it was just the nitro. New to rooting LG's as I had samsungs before. I am having the same exact issue running OH!NO! Full Throttle 7.1 and never realized it.. Is it just settings that are not allowing it to sleep?
[LG Nitro HD] miguellopez12:
I have no clue but there is something that is keeping the phone awake and not letting gp to sleep which is really hurting the battery life
[LG Nitro HD] bobdallama:
i definitely recommend getting juice defender. it made a HUGE difference in my battery life.
[LG Nitro HD] miguellopez12:
I tried it but it didn't help much just turned off the data. The only thing that really helped was to go into app settings and disable android and it has helped some
[LG Nitro HD] eshka:
I have the same issue. Android OS is (or was) the best battery killer. AT&T support person told me to do factory reset AND DO NOT INSTALL any app that are not preinstalled. I have to install them later one by one to find one incompatible with ICS.

After reset operation (happened 2 hours before) I have now Screen as the best battery killer :) Battery went from 77% down to 62% with some browsing and preinstalled apps update. It looks promising...
[LG Nitro HD] veryluckyguy:
battery drain

The telus rom has the same issue. There are just some apps that keep the OS awake. I narrowed mine down to CSipSimple which is a voip app. Without it, the battery can easily last over a day, but with it, it'll die in about 5 hours. This app works fine in gingerbread so I think it's a bug in the original LG ICS rom which is customized by the different providers. I haven't tried Bell's rom but I suspect it'll be the same.
[LG Nitro HD] eshka:
battery killer found?

It looks like I found the beast. It is very likely WhatsApp messenger. I stopped it with stock Task Manager. Now after 4 hours out of socket I only lost ~15% of the battery. I listened audio podcast for about 1 hour, browsed a bit, took several pictures. Nothing special.

What is interesting that WhatsApp is still shown in the list of running apps (Menu -> App Settings -> Running apps). I also have Juice Defendewr running (and it is visible in Task Manager, so I can technically stop it), but I don't think it changes much. At least it didn't before stopping WhatsApp.

And may be veryluckyguy it right about bugs in LG ICS. In GB I had no complains about WhatsApp or any other app. Or it may be a bug in app.

Here is the phrase from WhatsApp permissions:

"Allows the app to prevent the phone from going to sleep."

Unfortunately there is no setting for it. So if it starts preventing, then it does not stop it :(

There is new version of WhatsApp on their site for download - newer then in Google Play Store.
[LG Nitro HD] Swetnes:
WhatsApp is what has the ICS bug in it, it also happens on other non lg phones but it seems to be limited to ics. I have over 200 apps (not stock) installed and only had this issue with WhatsApp I get about 15 hrs w/stock before being down 50%. Much much better than the iPhone I used to have. Yes I came over from the dark side :)
[LG Nitro HD] veryluckyguy:
I just tried Bell's rom and it too has the same battery drain problem with some apps.
[LG Nitro HD] eshka:
it's a problem

If you google for "ICS battery drain issue" or alike, then you see that it is a problem. With all phones. Although some lucky guys have their phones working even longer than before :) I'm not one of them. So my last day was 25 hours with no calls and minimum browsing. Mostly checking battery level :) Today I had ~15 min Skype videocall and ~20 min voice call. TTL is ~12 hours.

It should be some explanation or workaround. I prefer to use some particular apps. If they are not compatible with new system, then I may consider downgrade. The other way is to kick asses of those app developers or/and Google. It should be possible to specify that app is NOT compatible with ICS. Or consider battery drainage as as a bug in ICS.
[LG Nitro HD] bunana5199:
Same issue happened to me ever, I just changed a ROM.
[LG Nitro HD] burma:
In my experiences with LG and ICS biggest batter drainers were:

1) buggy rom (mmc2_detect wakelocks + suspend_backoff, as shown by better battery stats).

Fixed by flashing official ROMs

2) for all LGs i've ever had and all ROMs: buggy implementation of Fast Dormancy technology. You can see it by "DataTracker-FD" wakelock in GingerBread or big number of "com.android.phone" wakeups/alerts in ICS.

Fixed as here ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2018894 ), but for your specific network! not necessarily "310410".

The second one gave me +40% battery life

[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] wp7calendar:
Hello

It is with pleasure that I announce that the WP7 Calendar V1.7 is available

The contents of this version are as follows:

- New layout for displaying month view

- New month view

The display of the month view is more "classical" with the use of triangle to materialize an appointment in the morning or afternoon. This helped to increase the size of the day to make it more readable.

The current day is now surrounded by a frame of color accent.

I also created a new month view. This view displays for the selected day, the details of appointment. This is to avoid switch between the day and month view to find availability.

I hope you like it

good use

WP7 Calendar

1.5 Changes :

Search in the calendar

Filter account

Filter private appointements

Color choices range increased for account

all status (Appointments) are now displayed

Metro design apply to the general screen

=> Check inside application for more details

With the 1.4 version, I focused on live tiles.

Tile Day

- A new tile : double text

- Use of back tile to display appointment of tomorrow

- 5 options to customize tile

- Up to 8 appointment displayed on the tile

Tile week

- Use of back tile to display next week

- 3 options to customize the tile

Your turn to play now, customize your tiles !

[About XDA developers] Matt-C:
I recently flashed Hybrom V17 on my wt19i. Everything works absolutely smoothly, except the camera. For some reason the back camera is completely inverted. I have searched the internet for days and i have not found any problem like this.

Could someone please help if they know what the problem could be!

Thanks:)

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mvmacd:
Has anybody tried this: 1. Setup a powered USB hub plugged into the Micro OTG cable 2. hack the cable from right after the OTG cable to where it plugs into the hub, so that the voltage pins are exposed 3. solder in the voltage pins to a usb connector so you can plug in a normal charger [5V 2A] 4. check to see if you can use the USB hub and charge at the same time

I currently have a Asus transformer TF101 and the primary use is watching clips off a 500GB usb HDD. I really, really want to get a N7 and sell my TF101, but if charging & simultaneous host mode is not possible, I would be slightly hesitant to buy it, because I would be eating up the battery much faster than I would like.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gunnyman:
The Evita has been available for nearly 3 months now. Is AT&T going to allow sanctioned bootloader unlocking? Was there any indication that after a period of time, the phone would be unlock able via HTC Dev? I'm considering selling my One X and never buying an At&T subsidized phone again, You are trying to come across as development friendly, but alas your flagship device sold in the United States is not unlock able.

Please advise without a canned response about carrier restrictions. I know all about that answer, I'd like a straight yes or no on this question please.

Lets see what I get in response
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] msfguard:
knowing the good folks at HTC you'll get the carrier crap...

heres to hoping tho :eek:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Psionfenix:
here's an idea, which is always fun. play the carrier against the manufacturer.

when they say its the carrier, go to the carrier and ask them, when each other blames it on each other, show them that's what going on. they hate.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gunnyman:
Back when the phone launched I,along with a few other people filed complaints against AT&T with the BBB they went nowhere.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gunnyman:
*sigh*

HTC is committed to listening to users and delivering customer satisfaction. Since announcing our commitment to unlockable bootloaders, HTC has worked to enable our customers to unlock the bootloader on more than 45 devices over the past six months. In some cases, however, restrictions prevent certain devices from participating in our bootloader unlocking program. Rest assured, HTC is committed to assisting developers in unlocking bootloaders for HTC devices and we'll continue to unlock additional devices in the future. I do apologize that I do not have any further information at this time. I hope you enjoy your weekend,Gunnyman

So reply back saying that's the answer you didn't want and that you'll keep sending emails everyday until you get the truth.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gunnyman:
Oh I did

I can per persistent as hell.

I just hate the thought of this awesome phone's dev community getting screwed without the benefit of even a reach around. :(

I'm in a very pissy mood today.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mounttimp:
They just stop replying after about ten replays..HTC doesn't care about customer post purchase,you already bought the phone....
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mounttimp:
I will say thanks for taking the plunge first ....I know I'm better off because of it ....
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Root-Maniac:
The a$$holes quit responding to me as well... I feel you gunny. I'm a lil worried about all this WP added everywhere .. they are sealing all our holes..
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] wormyrocks:
That is the truth. It's AT&T's fault. Start emailing them.

When I first got my phone and they gave me the generic customer satisfaction text I left negative feedback. If you leave below a certain score they will ask you why you wouldn't recommend the phone. I mentioned the bootloader and bloatware, as well as lack of Wallet support.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ComposMentis:
Don't bother contacting AT&T. If it truly is AT&T forcing HTC to keep the bootloader locked then the sad reality is those of us that like to tinker are an extremely small minority in their portfolio. AT&T couldn't care less about appeasing us and, from a business standpoint, I don't blame them. Us tinkerers are the ones that install the Asian ROM and create a portable hotspot for an 8 hour drive down the state so their kids can stream Netflix on the iPad in the backseat, soaking up precious bandwidth that AT&T would like to charge me a boatload for. Totally random example, wasn't me last week. :)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] iElvis:
There may be more of us than you think. AT&T is about to give up on the added tethering plans for certain users. The new shared data family plans include tethering. You just pick your data cap and go.

Even though I've got grandfathered unlimited data, I may go for this when it's available. Adding up data totals for the three smartphones I'm paying for, we'll still save some money and get "free" tethering.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] JeepFreak:
I feel the exact same way Gunny. My Nexus One was my first smart phone, and obviously, my first HTC. I had such a good experience, I went straight back to HTC for my next phone (this one) but it's clear now that the Nexus One was an anomaly in HTC's history. I'm thinking its going to be Nexus or Samsung devices only for me from now on. Not sure how much longer I can hold out with this device. If the damn camera wasn't so awesome I would have sold it months ago. =(

Billy
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] the_scotsman:
HTC can't do anything, it's not their fault. You should be contacting AT&T, not HTC.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] blessedswine:
im new to this phone so sorry if this is a noob question, but i rooted my phone and im assuming i unlocked the bootloader as im running cleanrom, to me the process was fairly easy to do, so whats the reason behind needing HTC to officially support unlocked bootloaders? will it give us the ability to do something more or make it easier to unlock?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] the_scotsman:
I have no idea. Either way it does affect yor warranty, so I'm not sure why others dont use the CID mod to unlock.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gunnyman:
We need a sanctioned method to unlock because the method we have now is not going to work on 2.2.0 and we should not have to scramble like iphone jailbreakers on supposedly open android whenever there's a software update
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Skizzy034:
The One X is Android? It's so locked down, I could have sworn it was made by Apple.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gunnyman:
Exactly
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] HTCFAN0923:
It's an AT&T thing. Look at how the Tegra 3 One X is doing very well with us. I can give you three reasons why they did this:

1. At the time of the One X's release it was easily the best smartphone in the U.S., Every review online was a major positive and there was general hype for this device. I received it 2 weeks before it came out and people everywhere wanted to play with it, know more and made plans to get it. Someone offered me $800 to buy it off me before it was even released. I was under a NDA so that wasnt going to happen but you see the hype here in NYC. How many people would have unlocked their device to use on T-Mobile, Straight Talk, etc. At a time when AT&T wants to diversify their smartphone sales, The One X was they key to maintaining great sales numbers until the next IPhone and the recent GS3 were released. Sadly, the Embargo and difficulty maintaining supply crippled sales for the One X. Heck, AT&T has Beats Audio stations with the One X BEFORE it came out. Even the AT&T reps loved it. Unlocked bootloaders equal less retention and more churn, at a time where ATT is still playing catch up after their TMO deal fell through.

2. I remember once hearing some flashed their GS II skyrocket so that they could use it on Verizon. One X's on Verizon?Good enough reason to lock it down.

3. The usual tethering babble. Now, with the new plans and the fact that it was quite easy to do this with the other Android devices, this is a rather weak reason but add it to the rest and it's case closed.

I understand why AT&T did it. As a banker, I applaude the move as it ensures their bottom line. As a tech geek, **** that!! Give me unlocked everything!!!!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Hadcook:
I am an accountant and guarantee you this is hurting at&t and their bottom line. At&t tried to block blackberry and the way it paired to their tablet, the result? A fair amount of bb users walked away from att. (granted its still a small portion compared to att total subscribers). My family wants to move on from att due to the whole Google wallet issue and I have supported it because of the boat loader issue. At the end of the day the device maker gives in to carrier demands in the US far more than in other countries because they want their phones subsidized and the carriers use that to their advantage. From my days in England and south Africa The carriers did not have this power. How much are apple phones throttled by carriers? Not much because apple won't negotiate. It's about time all carriers stopped giving in to the carriers and it's about time the us government stepped in and stopped the current duopoly.

Anyway back to my point, it has started to affect att but as with most financial situations its been a small effect. If att continues on this path it has the potential to snowball. End Rant!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
I believe you are thinking about the hack to enable the AWS band on the Skyrocket (and a few other AT&T phones, like the Note) to enable 3G use on T-Mobile (AWS compatibility present in hardware, just not enabled in software). I don't think there is any way to make AT&T devices work on Verizon, as they lack the CDMA radio hardware.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] freakboy13:
Well according to apple it was.

Here's the other bad news have you guys seen the articles about HTC recently?

Closing up shop almost every where.

Is it the beginning of the end of HTC?

Imo..

I don't think HTC will be around much longer.

You can blame at&t all you want but personally I don't think it's one sole companies decision.

The irony of this whole locked bootloafer b.s., and that includes moto , is that they would sell so many more phones if they were dev friendly and unlocked.

I mean look how people run to the nexus.

Honestly it not even that great of a phone other than it being mostly open source.

Reminds me of my job;

All the office people who have no experience or degrees in my field, for what ever reason seem to proclaim to know better than me or my workmates on how to run operations or fix things...

Why? "Because I'm in charge"

It would be a shame to see a company like HTC have so much potential just get washed down the drain

:(
