You definitely charged the phone at some point for it to jump up like that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bbeelzebub:
You do know that if you plug it into a computer, it charges that way too, right?

9.5 hours on screen time is even better than the Razr Maxx gets with mobile data shut off. Ain't. Gonna. Happen.

Look at the picture.. See the red on the graph. That's the charge stage.

Nooo... That just means the battery is low. The charging is taking place where the little green bar is under the graph. (ie. Under the 5 in 54)

Me too for battery life. I have been sitting here all day long texting about a Soccer game in England, then through the first games of the NFL today and through the majority of the game I was watching as a second game. I have probably sent near 400 texts today... send/recieve... and I'm still at 41%

Battery life is horrible with this phone... I had to purchase an extended battery and even with it I sometimes cannot make it through a full day. I sometimes regret selling my Razr Maxx... :crying:

I have great battery life too. Been I'm on 72hrs with 48hrs of on screen time with stock battery ;):p

Seriously tho this is the first android phone that I never complain about battery life
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mjdavis871:
I consistently get 14 hours battery time with 2 hours of screen time. I run synergy r73 with ktoons kernel on the ktoon conservative governor. I do nothing to enhance battery life like tweaking data, Bluetooth, and WiFi. My screen is always on auto, and get several emails a day, texts, and phone calls.

I am very happy with my battery life.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bfs673:
Blasphemy :eek:

I came from the Maxx myself and my SG3 is hands down better than the Maxx... except for battery life ;)

I have no issue getting a full day of use on the battery which is truly the important inflection point for me... I charge every night anyhow.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tsnstuff:
Personally I'm very happy with the Battery Life I've been getting. I'm rooted but I'm running stock everything.

Probably not very impressive compared to what other people may be getting but I am most happy with it. Still carry a spare with me in my man bag just in case but never had to use it yet.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] marcustaz:
I guess I am just a heavy user... I stream radio sometimes play my tunes from Amzon Mp3 app local though not cloud, I check my emails just basic stuff, I DO NOT play games nor do I watch movies.

Tell me about it.

Being a weekend warrior around the house is the only way to keep a semblance of physical activity going that doesn't involve fingers tapping a keyboard. It's why I don't own a snowblower for the driveway.

Oh, and my Galaxy S III battery has been great - never a worry during any type of day away, whether I'm taking tons of photos and videos (with playback) while messaging, calling and using maps or related apps on holiday, or attending a family event and finding things to do between conversation. It easily goes the day, though I often don't charge for days because I'm usually good about turning it off before bed. My Droid Incredible would laugh at me if I wanted more than a few hours of screen time in a day.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Roland_D:
Very true...

Any how the sgs3 has a 2100 mAh battery... Not bad... The only better battery is the razr maxx but honestly I had to send it back to Verizon cause the heat from battery and wifi fried the screen... Soo yeah.

I just wanted to be sure, but I see everyone hitting 15+ hours and I can't break 10 on one charge, and maybe I use my phone too much.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chuckleb0ne:
What ROM are you running? And do you live in an area where you have bad coverage? This is mine for today. Have used it quite a bit. The key to getting good battery life is all about the data connection. I use airplane mode when I am at work so the phone doesn't always have to be connecting to the network.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] PhxkinMassacre:
Just curious, does anyone else's evo not connect to 4g unless they cycle 3g on and off? there is one area a few miles from my house and when i go up there (knowing there is solid 4g) my phone will stay on 3g the whole time im up there. now if im up there and cycle airplane mode or flip my internet on and off then it connects to 4g right away as soon as the radio turns on, no problem. Occasionally if i leave my phone in my pocket it will hop back to 3g but then it will stay there again until i flip off and on my internet and then like magic my 4g is back.

Does this happen to everyone else or is it just me? haha may just be the tower also considering im a little southwest of chicago and they haven't really officially launched per say.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] digiblur:
It's a common problem with the EVO and HTC has not fixed it yet.

They better get to work as people are thinking the LTE network sucks. Compare it to a S3 side by side and it has no issues.

I still have my insurance and will keep it as when lte is available in my area I will be bringing my phone into the store over and over until they swap me out.

Love the EVO but if it sucks for using LTE then it has to go bye bye.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] 2k4mach:
im quickly getting to that point. my wifes s3 and daughters iphone5 can hold an lte signal great. but this evo with the current radios just plain sucks.

sitting right next to each other my evo is rocking 1x, the s3 is bouncing between 3g and lte and the iphone is holding lte.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ghettovirtuoso:
My phone finds LTE in MA but has problems with voice and won't text at all sometimes. Not sure whether that a problem with the network or phone.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] evo4ger:
this is happening to me to i knew there was a tower right by me but no LTE connected so i changed the network settings to CDMA/LTE and held LTE until i left the area. I was getting only 1.5mbps which i think sucks for LTE. Its hard to stay what the issue it whether its the phone or actual software settings that maybe OTA can fix. Weird thing i noticed when i updated to the latest firmware is LTE only setting holds LTE and 1X, CDMA/LTE never picks up 3g so i just end up putting it back to stock settings. Really considering taking it back to compare to the store phones.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] JDM Civic EG8:
Having the same problem as well. It will connect to 4G on its own but it would take its sweet time. So the fastest way for me is toggle airplane mode. Hope it gets fixed soon.

Sent From EVO LTE
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] digiblur:
Many people think it is just the new network but in fact it is not. You quickly realize it when you have another LTE phone next to the EVO LTE that the EVO has a huge issue. We just all need to band together and stay on top of Sprint and HTC constantly bugging them until this issue is fixed. We done things like this before, but we all need to do it again to get this fixed ASAP!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] evo4ger:
im starting to think this too that it might be the phone. OG Evo4g was never this slow on 3g and i had wimax in my house. Now i barely get 3g in my house and no LTE unless i drive down the road. It sucks not being able to pin point this. I tested it with another evo4g lte and they had similiar results as me...need to try another LTE non-evo4g phone next...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] subhumanderelict:
I made a thread about this last week-

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1898433

I pretty much stuck myself between two towers which I knew were transmitting 4G but refused to cycle through airplane mode or LTE/CDMA and CDMA-only modes. I passed by both and the phone never switched over.

On the plus side, my phone did acquire a fairly weak 4G signal today on its own, so there may be some hope for this thing yet.

I’m confused, is there an LTE-only setting in the latest firmware, or are you talking about the option in the *#*#INFO#*#* (*#*#4636#*#*) menu? I’m honestly a little wary of using that since I’ve heard it can cause problems that only a factory reset can solve.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] evo4ger:
yeah the options ##DATA# or when using the elixir app under telephony.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] digiblur:
Anyone having this issue needs to call Sprint and HTC and require them to open a ticket for the issue. This is the only way it will get fixed. I hear some are getting told that it is due to the new tower equipment. So you might need another LTE device to compare it to. Others are getting told there is an update coming soon. Others are getting told that the EVO has no issues.

It is obvious though, sprint has stopped pushing this phone. They don't even list it in their lte press releases.

can someone confirm changing your LTE scan timer to 60 increase speed and connection? changed mine and both increased...where i couldnt pickup or hold a LTE signal before

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] leerage:
Do we know what the values mean though? One would assume seconds but if you increased and got better results, it could mean something else.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] roids87:
At this point its worth a shot. I would test it but I don't have LTE close enough to me. The option that is just below LTE scan timer, BSR Max timer, I'm curious as to what that is.

From what I found googling it might mean Better Service Reselection. Just need to figure out what the values mean.
[LG Nitro HD] 996gt2:
From the home screen's voice search shortcut, if I say "navigate to...", the phone simply returns a google search, instead of opening the navigation app. This behavior didn't happen in ICS (it would open the navigation app after the command "navigate to...")

Hello, I am a pure noob here, and one to android in general.

I bought a TF101 a while back, and while complaining to a friend (over xbox live) that it was a bit slow at times, he told me to root it and install cyanogenmod.

So I started looking into it, and thought it looked well within my capabilities to do, so I went for it. I followed the instructions at the cyanogenmod wiki.

Wthout knowing the issues I was going to encounter before encountering them, I really didn't know what pitfalls to research, and thought I'd be fine if I just followed the instructions above.

So, I used Wheelie to root and installed CWM 6.0.1.3 using NVFlash. A little trouble, but I got through it, so far so good.

Here is my problem, in the instructions when they refer to the SD card, I took that to mean the microSD card. So now, when I go into CWM, I cannot install the rom from my external storage (CWM does not support this).

I thought I had created a backup of my current installation, but apparently, I failed at that as well.

And of course, since the instructions above, or the instructions on the Wheelie page don't mention it, I didn't enable debugging through USB before doing all of this.

So now, my tablet does nothing unless I access it with Wheelie and use NVFlash. Otherwise, it does nothing when i turn it on. I've looked around this forum and others this morning for about 2 hours and have not found any solution that will work for me. They all involve a backup on the internal SD storage (which I don't have) or using ADB (which I can't do without USB Debugging being enabled).

If any of you more knowledgeable about this stuff could take pity on my, I would appreciate any help.

Is my tablet now useless?

Thank you!

[Eee Pad Transformer General] curmud6e0n:
Ok, so I used this tool, and put a stock ICS on the tablet I downloaded from Asus. As I was setting everything back up, content to just have my old tablet back, it froze on me. I restarted, the tablet, and now it won't load again. It gets stuck at the EEE pad screen. Worse, when I turn it off, it automatically turns right back on.

I can manage to get this to load in recovery mode (vol down; I don't even need to hit the power button because it just automatically turns on) but I can't get it to boot up in APX for me to flash and restore again. I've tried several times, but there doesn't seem to be enough time to plug the cable in between reboots for it to not boot up regularly.

When I boot up recovery mode, it freeze there, unable to load any recovery tools.

Any more ideas? The help is much appreciated.

Thanks again for your help, but I got it another way. Holding volume + and power got the tablet to shut off and stay off. From there I was able to use the first tool you gave me pointed me to again, restored it all again, re-installed the stock OS.

From there I reflashed, re-rooted and all my issues with installing cyanogen went away. I'm not sure what went wrong the first time I tried to do this, but it all went away and installed with no issues.

Thanks again for all your help. Without it I'd have no tablet anymore.
