[Nexus Q General] WildSatchmo:
By default, the Q has no launcher, and instead uses 'broker' as the default launcher, which has no interface, only loads up the visualizer. You cannot change this with a home switcher or any other app capable of changing the launcher. I haven't been able to find how exactly the Q is doing this, but I did find a workaround.

This assumes you are already rooted, you have a controller connected via OTG cable and have Nova launcher installed. This will work with other launchers but you will have to write your own app to launch something else.

For me, the solution consists of:

- Connect a controller of your choosing (logitech K400), and install Nova launcher

- Identify the Scan Code of the button you would like to use as a 'Home' key (KeyTool.apk attached to help find it easily if not a standard home button)

- Remap the 'CALL' action to the button you want to use. (I chose CALL since is of no use to the Q.)

- Install a small app to intercept the 'CALL' intent and fire up your launcher

1) To connect a controller, you will need a OTG cable. I wont go into this since others have already covered this in detail. Here's a good example: http://davidnhutch.com/sandbox/blog/connect-a-mouse-and-keyboard-via-usb/

2) If your controller already has a home button, and it is already kicking you to the visualizer, the scan code you're looking to intercept is probably 172. If not, you can install KeyTest.apk (attached credits solarbanjo at mobileread.com forums) on the Q and it will tell you the scancode when you press each button.

3) Now, you need to edit the Q's keylayout file (found in /system/usr/keylayout/Generic.kl) and point that key declaration to 'CALL' instead of 'HOME'. Find the number that cooresponds to your scan code, and change the action to CALL.

BTW There are probably multiple key layout files in this folder. I've attached my Generic.kl for reference, but if you're not using the same keyboard this might not be useful. Compare to yours and change accordingly.

Note: If you edit Generic.kl it will change the default action for any new device that is connected. The *proper* way to do this is to create a device specific key layout, but I didn't bother because I'm lazy.

You can find more detail about this part here: http://chris.boyle.name/2010/08/android-keymaps and here: http://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=159538

4) Install HijackDialer.apk (attached). This app is simple, all it does is received the dial intent and launches Nova. No need to run as service since its the only app registered to the dialer intent. Ideally, this would allow you to choose your launcher but this works for now.

I also mapped My F1 - F11 Keys to other actions like BACK, FORWARD, POWER etc. Now my keyboard can control the Q completely and I can get to my launcher without having to send adb commands. All I'm missing now is a 'close' button to kill locked up apps that don't behave on the Q.

I'm sure I may have glossed over some details but hope this helps someone.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rockerIX:
Hello! Every one

I'm having a weid issue with my phone I already search the forum and a few threads appear but nothing that could help me....

I flashed a ICS rom a few days ago... and my phone started to shut off when I shake it or something that could move it hard and sometimes it just shut off doing absolutley nothing...

At first I tought it was a kernel problem or a bad flash problem so I returned to stock with Odin and the problem stills there... When Im on Recovery It also shut off from any kind of shaking...

I change battery with some friend and my battery is working just fine.. when I put my friends battery in my Vibrant still shut off when shaking...

So my question is... could be a software problem? or is it a Hardware problem?...

Any help would be awesome!...

Thanks guys! (sorry for my bad english :P)

Resetting your phone due to poor battery performance, in my opinion won't make any efforts actually, IF, you come back with all the same programs which you installed on your device.

You may refer to this post in terms of performance of your battery,

Comments from some are make sense. And what dr. ketan wrote there also make sense.

But in my own opinion, I would not install so many apps, which end up become "decorations" only to your device. I will install the apps which I will use frequently to save a battery life.

[HTC One S] cecoen:
So I called T-mo about a broken BB9900 (yes, long time BB user here) and oddly enough they offered the one s under my BB warranty. Weird but ok. I really like the one s and android and almost went with the htc amaze back when I was trying to decided between BB and android. I love the size of the S and will probably only really miss the keyboard of my BB but anyway, not trying to start a debate about phones, sorry. So, coming from BB, which are notorious for long battery life, I am wondering how a one s would stack up.

I am a drive by home inspector. Meaning I drive by houses and snap a pic or two and usually bluetooth the pics over to my lap top sitting on the front seat to up load them to my company. I probably visit 60-80 houses a day and take a couple of pics of each. Usually don't use the flash, only every now and then. My BB will generally make it till mid afternoon before needing to be charged. Since starting this job I don't use the phone for conversations much anymore nor do I use the internet or media features much. Mainly pics, texts, and emails.

I have read great things about this phone and the battery life but nothing specific to my type usage. Anyone have any experience with the phone using it kinda like that?

Thanks,

Chad

Oh, and not sure if it matters or not but camera setting are on the very smallest pic it can take. Not taking quality pics just quantity.
[HTC One S] gelo01:
based on my experience when i went out of town for a vacation, i used my One S as my primary camera for the whole trip. i unplugged the phone at exactly 8 AM in the morning, during the trip, i captured exactly 148 photos in total, when i get back home at around 9-10 PM in the evening, the battery still has 18% remaining. i'm quite happy with it. not mentioning that i played music on the road, played games a little, and texted a couple of SMS. the battery life of the HOS is great! :)

I am stuck in firmware upgrade encountered an issue. please select recovery mode in kies.

I came from a HTC Vivid. I decided to go back to Samsung and forgot how pain in the ass they are when you make a mistake.

It all started trying to flash CWM on download mode using Odin. I did what I'm suppose to do. Its connected through the com port, only click on PDA and browsed the TAR file. Only checked auto-boot. Started odin and I get a Fail status. After that I am stuck on the firmware upgrade encountered an issue. please select recovery mode in kies.

I tried to go to android recovery but it keeps putting me back on the firmware upgrade issue. Went back on download mode and try to flash the stock rom from AT&T and same thing. I keep getting a failure. I am using OEM samsung data cable.

I am going to use a different computer to do this,but here's the problem now. My phone has died, it keeps saying low battery, cant go on download mode. Will the phone charge even on this state?

I still keep getting an error and now the phone is dead and won't even let me go on download mode because it keeps saying battery is low? I tried it without the battery and still won't do it.

I got my guide from Vincom http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1652398 and he stated that the battery must have charge or full charge.

I've had bad experience even with my old Galaxy Captivate. I have found it so much easier with my older HTC HD2, Sensation and Vivid. For example if something goes wrong Samsung goes into that firmware upgrade thing issue with kies. HTC does not even do that. There is no download mode in HTC. I guess to everyone's own. Only reason why I have this phone because I only got it for 100 dollars.
