/*Just wondering if the mods would agree to a thread where we post links to various contests where when people sign up through your link you get more chances to win. I know those are technically referral links, but with me at least I know the ones I would post would be legit. Already have one where you can win a 5D mark III ($3.5k camera) where in the same giveaway you can get a lens, a g1X camera or a camera bag, and another one thats a gift certificate to a store with photo inspired clothes. Will Archer allow this?*/

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lofreq-:
Hi all 7.7 users - Im a long time 7.7 owner and XDA lurker - having recently moved to Paranoid Android's CM10 based build for our tabs, ive noticed that the dreaded RILJ mobile network wakelock is back in full effect.

i have gone through the regular troubleshooting steps of enable Airplane mode, turn off, turn on, disable Airplane mode - this has no effect. other forums recommend using GETRIL to set up RIL properly, but that app does not support the 7.7 tab yet.

i am running a HK based p6800, which i had flashed the Austrian LQ2 stock rom on, before upgrading to PA 2.16. i do NOT have a sim card fitted at the moment, so i only use it on wifi - which confuses me more when i see the RILJ wakelock, because how is it locking on to a carrier signal without guidance from a sim card???

previous to this, Honeycomb stock was slow, but battery lasted for ever on standby, which was awesome. on ICS, performance decreased, but RILJ was not a problem. now on JB 4.1.1, RILJ never lets the tab sleep, and it remains on 200mhz until its battery dies a few hours later.

what are your experiences and suggestions? i have heard that some builds of CM10 fixed the RILJ issue, and i know PA has reached version 2.18 on other devices, but still waiting for it to be updated for our tab - however does anyone know if newer CM10 builds (supposedly android 4.1.2???) fix the RILJ wakelock?

thanks all

Ive had a similar experience of that in the past with the stock browser and mostly every browser ive used, for whatever reason, flash video would not work when the browsers user agent is set to anything other then "desktop". Use a browser that allows you to request desktop version like the stock browser, i dont know if this will work for you but no harm in trying if you havent done so already

When I make an internet call using either google talk or skype the next time I make a phone call the person on the other end can't hear me until I reboot the phone. Is there a fix or workaround or do I just have to live with it?

I get phenomenal battery life out of my S3 (stock).

I had an Epic 4G and was afraid to leave my desk because of the battery drain. With moderate usage (30-60 mins talk time, texting, chat, some web, exchange, ect) I can easily get 16-20 hours. Signal quality in your area will impact it more than anything. Also, wifi is vastly easier on the battery.

PS Facebook app SUCKS. Just bookmark the webpage and use that. Works better and doesn't ruin your phone.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aria807:
You can improve battery life by switching to custom roms with less bloatware, and updating to more efficient kernels. (This is on a Rom/Kernel level)

Software wise, just figure out what apps are causing wake times and try not to use them. Basically whenever an app/widget refreshes/updates content, it may cause phone to wake (like weather/clock widgets for example).
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] majic12:
I have been using cpusleep and it seems to have helped my battery life ... also using a custom rom without the bloatware is key for me.

my current setup is freegs3 release 6 with the latest trinity kernel...even though its overclocked my battery has been amazing and phone has worked flawless.

Im also using system tuner which has given me the ability to manage the cpu with on demand and other customizable settings

The only thing I synch is my k9 mail account

I also have frozen several samsung apps which helped...

Im now getting over 20 hours of basic use between charges...I dont use games/videos so might be a little skewed . I use this phone for business calls/internet/messaging/photos/navi...pretty basic

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] BossBrew:
I have been using Gigajoule lately by feckmu and it has given me the best battery life out of all the custom roms I have tried. Even with GPS, WIFI, and screen at full brightness I can make it through the entire day with 30-40% battery left. If your looking for a rom-based solution to your battery life, check it out!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] shahkam:
That isnt impressive at all.. 2hours screen on time and 15 hours standby ? I can doo that on stock 2100mah.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fezlopez:
Here's a simple tip.

Install screen filter and lower the brightness by 15%. You'll barely see a difference in brightness and you'll save battery life. Screen Filter is one of the smallest brightness apps I've used so that helps too.

Whenever I'm out at night nightime, I lower it to 50% or less.

When under my blanket, I lower it by 87%.

I love how the app lowers the brightness below the stock minimum.

NOTE: Whatever you do, don't ever set it at less than 5%!!!! (The app will reset after 15 secs but you cant see ****)

+1 I use that app at night so I don't bother the wifey while I'm on the phone at night

It's really small when folded.The keyboard is stable.Keys are working fine they make a solid impression.

Much faster than the on-screen keyboard even when I am just starting to use it.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] innov8ion:
Its too big and then you must carry two discrete pieces. That's a nonstarter for many. I require an integrated keyboard / case solution.

It seems to be a bit thinner than the also cool kybd / case folios like benchmark9 shared. Doesn't have a tab key but I can emulate it with External Keyboard Helper Pro.

Hoping for some better products like these from Zagg, Logitech, or even Google. MS Surface has some great keyboard cases eh...

I'm a huge fan of the Poetic Keybook.

I know that a lot has been written to the contrary, but I'm a huge fan. It took a little getting used to, but once I got it down, the keyboard is excellent. I cant do the separate keyboard simply for the fact that I would need to carry it in a bag or something.

The poetic keybook solved this issue, as it is an all in one case/keyboard with removable keyboard if need be.

Hi,

So I started working as an intern and am asked to come up with an inventory system that is accessible online. We have a project we are working on and are constantly receiving shipments at our warehouse in Chicago. I am looking for some sort of a tagging software that is accessible from desktop, iPhone and Android smartphones. Along with that, it should have an inventory system, which can create a barcode or QR code for each item number we place in there. It should be available on all our employee's smartphones and computers. We can assign permission who can add/remove/edit each item. For example

We have an Oil pump. Our part number for the oil pump is P-355.

The app should be able to make a bar-code for "P-355". It should also allow us to add a description in the database along with quantity.

anyone have any idea of such software or app, I would greatly Appreciate it!!!
