[Asus Transformer TF700] PhilipL:
Hi

Wi-Fi using more than the screen isn't normal on any other device!

My Nexus 7 is currently on 3d 6h 39m on battery, screen is 60%, Tablet idle 22%, Wi-Fi 5%, Media server 5%, FireFox 3%, Android System 3%

Screen on time is 2 hours 48 minutes, and Wi-Fi on time is 22 hours and 22 minutes, I have 53% battery life left, now that's normal :)

Regards

Phil
[Asus Transformer TF700] HoushaSen:
Yup. Again actual statistics to calculate they use is probably based on the hours it is on i.e. for wifi even during the sleep/screen off. So % is not really accurate though WIFI does drain battery.

Just go with 10%/hr (without browse) and 20%/hr (with browse) and see if your unit meet this.
[Asus Transformer TF700] SayWhat10:
how big is the battery in that nexus?
[Asus Transformer TF700] HoushaSen:
You simply cannot rely on the stat that transformer infinity is showing. Because I can basically flip the stat by using straight 3 hours from 100% with screen on time in which case WIFI is on only for 3 hours as well as screen. Then % is signficantly different.

So yes. WIFI draining more than screen is abnormal; however, the method of calculation that ASUS is using is simply inaccurate.

However, I still do believe WIFI module that Infinity using is problematic in sense that suddenly with browsing the battery drain rate almost doubles, which is simply too much of battery drain but definitely not as much as the stat shows.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
If you really dislike it so much, then return it and move on already! It sounds like you are very unhappy with the device. After trying 7 different TF700's and still not being happy, why are you even thinking of keeping the device? Regardless of what others believe and have experienced it's pretty simple - you don't like it and you obviously can't enjoy it, so why does it even matter what others think?? I just don't get it... Geez...

Please, return it and get something else already!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] samtruong200:
Hey guys,

I am running SkyICS 4.2F6-2.6.1B. Before I changed my lockscreen wallpaper, I had that nice transparent one that shows my home screen wallpaper. Now, after I changed the wallpaper, I can't seem to pick "none" as a lockscreen option. Is there an add-on or something that I need?

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] bps119:
I ran into the same issue when I was running that rom. I set a theme in apex or something and it changed the lock screen wall to match the home screen wallpaper. I couldn't find any way to revert without re-flashing the rom. Perhaps you could try to flash the latest update again to see if it gets back to transparent, otherwise, a dirty flash of the whole thing might be your only option other than a full wipe.

If ignorance is bliss, you must be orgasmic. Don't let your pants get wet and use that search button.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blackplague1347:
It took a while, but it finally happened. Was it a nasty drop? Sand in the pocket? An angry woodpecker? No.

It was...

The bottom of a ceramic coffee mug. I was actually just trying to see if it would scratch it and -- I'll be damned -- it did. Not terribly, but there are a few small, circular scratches in the one spot. Curiosity = satisfied.

So let this be a lesson, kids: don't rest your coffee on your Gnex, even with a Fantom tempered glass screen protector on it :)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blackplague1347:
It is unbelievably difficult to get a decent shot of the scratches. This is the best I could do.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] biscuitownz:
That is on the screen protector and not the screen itself right? :/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blackplague1347:
Yeah. Admittedly, I haven't taken the screen protector off to find out for sure, but I don't think my coffee cup managed to cut through a piece of tempered glass and scratch the original layer of glass beneath it. I could be wrong, but still. Either way, the scratches aren't to terrible as far as disruption the usage of my phone. Usually I don't notice the scratches. I'll probably replace this protector once I find another that has a good, glass feel to it. If anyone has any recommendations, please do let me know.

[Galaxy S III General] BrokenPixel:
I agree, to be honest the S2 felt a little square while holding it, the first thing I said when I held the S3 was OMG you can't feel the corner!!! this is holding the phone with one hand and having the bottom right corner rest on your palm (right hand). The note 2 is just the note 1 with the S3 curves or you can say that the note2 is the iphone5 of the OG note... (didn't wanted to mention the i word but that's how it looks to me).

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] wizardknight:
I have been using usb data tethering on my TP2 (rhod400) with android. I found that there is a sweet spot in my room, but it is just a little to far away to put my phone there and use usb tethering. I picked up an usb extension cable. The phone shows up correctly in my device manager with the cable, but I get no data from the phone when I use the extension cable (works fine otherwise). The cable works fine when I use it with other devices so I am not thinking it is faulty.

Does anyone know if there is a cable length or resistance maximum that is lower than the average device for the TP2 phones?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] arrrghhh:
Well, I wouldn't think the TP2 has some lower tolerance...

Is it longer than 15 feet? I would think the length limit would be similar to USB in general, which without some sort of repeater/power is 15 feet for a single cable. I'm sure connectors add a certain amount of loss, so an extender might not help as much as you would need it to.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] wizardknight:
No. It is about 9'-10' in total length. I made sure to keep it reasonable in length.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] arrrghhh:
Hrm... Yea, the length with all the connectors just may be too great...

Does the extension cable work on other things that require data transfer? Or did you just try a mouse or keyboard...? Either way that's a bummer...

If you feel like taking another chance on a cable, see this.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] wizardknight:
Yes, the cable works fine with other devices that use data, and if I use a adapter to connect the extension cable directly to my phone (rather than extending another cable) it works by its self. It only cost me $1 so it is not the end of the world, but I am somewhat surprised.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] wizardknight:
Dug out the multimeter, and found the cable + extension had 1.7ohm of resistance.

If I assume that the tp2 pulls the full 500ma of current that gives me a .85v drop (V=I*R). I measured 5.04v from the usb port.

That means the max voltage making it to the phone is ~4.15. I think the min is 4.5 for usb specs. So that would probably be the issue here. Just enough voltage that I can get a little bit of data, and the phone is able to transmit it's name to the pc then fails on data.

I think I need to find a cable with a max of 1ohm resistance for this to work well.
