[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Maybe I have an answer.

1. After returning to stock, you should have installed Acer Update Enhancer from the Play Store. Without it, you won't get OTA.

2. Early release of the ICS had some SOD issues kernel related. The current ICS roms shouldn't have this anymore. However they require the V8 unlocked bootloader. Also, they use modified kernels.

Make sure you have V8 installed, An appropriate CWM recovery like Thor 1.7.2 or .3. Do your wipes, then install one of Civato's Roms. His are current builds. And, Do ALL your wipes in CWM as per the OP instructions.

MD
[Acer Iconia A500] BlueWyvern:
That Update enhancer did the trick to take me to ICS. Then I used afterota to get rooted (which also flashed my boot loader) and now I have ICS, root, and the v8 BL!

Thanks MD!

This is unfortunate, it is not even hot so I don't know what's up.

There is the temp as says setCPU
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Tim4:
Whats your max. level?

My one going only till 63%

Oh there a screenshoot attached.

Anyway its far higher than the 63% at 39C
[AT&T LG Optimus G] whoamanwtf:
I am unsure if this is just over caution on their part of if this is something we need to be worried about... honesty even yours at 39c is not that hot 102 F which for a computer is whatever... but I thought this chip was supposed to run cooler and everything being the new architecture.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] gafalas:
I have been doing a lot of CPU testing and noticed a couple of things:

First of all the issue with the screen not turning brighter is simple: the heat within the device reached a certain limit that could potentially damage it.

the CPU, RAM and the screen light are the main culprit. Especially the CPU and RAM, try CPU stats and after heavy use you will notice the phone gets warm/hot and the freq gets capped out at 1.1 GHz by the kernel. This is mainly to reduce the heat obviously....I guess keeping the phone running at 1.5 GHz with all 4 cores and the screen cranked up to max will definitely turn the phone into a Coleman stove in no time.

So i guess this powerful CPU doesn't do any better than any dual core running constantly and stable for the same amount of time to crunch performance levels. Sigh...I guess until they wont figure out to make things run cooler powerful CPU's wont get far-only on paper :P

Just my 2 cents
[AT&T LG Optimus G] JohnCorleone:
You are right on point. I have seen it drop (I believe to 1180) when running a bunch of benchmarks. The manufacturer sets the heat threshold at a very safe level. Kernel devs are usually able to safely bump that up another 10 to 15 degrees. I am one of the lucky ones that got the variant 3 of the international One X. Variant 3 was the strongest version and I ran all 4 cores at 1600 with 51 minimum. Faux usually figures out how to uncap and raise the throttle temperature... but he's on a N4. I am going to keep an eye on the kernel threads there and see how far they push things. Chainfire's "PerfMod" app is perfect to watch this while running different apps

What's the point of the "great battery life" if you basically don't use your phone at all to achieve it? Battery life should be determined by a week of normal use. If that's how you use it, then congrats, but for the rest of us, that's why they made watches.

Just wanted to say that I run with 3500 mah batteries. Recently purchased a ravpower universal adapter for 9.99 on new egg. It charges my batteries fuller than a charger I bought on ebay for 20$ which was an evo charger with an adapter. The old charger would stop charging when battery was at about 75-95%. So I would get about 20-24 hours of battery life with medium to moderate usage.

With same batteries charged with new charger, i get the full 100% and up to 25-30 hours of life. So a good purchase if you want to extend the life of your Dinc. Its a cool charger too because since it's adjustable, and it will fit nearly any flat battery in the future plus it charges faster at 600 mah.

Btw, the thing I think causes the biggest drain on battery is the 3g radio. When turned off, and you could easily get 4-5 days of standby.

Blobs are where your data is stored when you make backups on clockwork recovery. It is safe as long as you don't need any of your backed up data. You can also transfer your backups to pc by dragging folders into pc.

This started happening last night. Can't figure out how to fix it, and I really don't want to have to hard-reset my phone :crying:

Here's whats happened so far...

1. Metrotube wouldn't launch (insta-crashed) even after a reboot... so i uninstalled the app.

2. When i attempted to re-install metrotube, it went into the queue, but is stuck on "pending"

3. Attempting to cancel or retry the download = nothing happens

4. Feeds in the People hub refuse to update. Instantly fails with an error.

5. messenger refuses to sign in.

6. "Me" tile is stuck on "3 new items" even though Ive already read everything in there.

7. Attempting to install any other app from the marketplace = error message.

8. Rebooting the phone multiple times has done nothing to help the problems above.

What happened, and how do I fix it? Since when does WP7 randomly just fubar itself?

Does the list I gave in the first post give you any clues? Seems weird that the entire OS would just screw up like that, when it was working fine just minutes before hand...
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
It sounds to me like a potential hardware failure, either in the NAND Flash itself or in the SD card storage (for phones which use that instead of soldered-in storage). That's just a first guess, though.

As for things to tell us about, were you messing with any high-privilege apps? Either apps that use privilege elevation hacks, like WP7 Root Tools or things like Windowbreak for Samsung, or apps which you marked as "Trusted' in Root Tools?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcosmin222:
Well not quite everything. We don't need to know whom you're texting or stuff like that. Nice info would be if you tried rooting, sideloading some unknown app, attempting to charge without your battery, stuff like those...or if you tried some high privileges stuff, like the guy above me asked.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Leapo:
Like I said earlier, this is a Lumia 900. This phone can't be rooted by any known method, and mine wasn't even developer unlocked.

No high-privileges, no root tools, nothing. Totally stock and unmodified with only marketplace apps. It just decided to screw up one day and the only way to fix it was a hard reset...

Also can't charge a Lumia 900 without the battery, because it's sealed inside.

If you get the update accept it then root your phone. There is a way to install it in stock recovery or force it. Which is what I did since I have no patience to wait. The info for that should be found here.

Ventev Case

The case arrived and fits the AT&T LG Optimus G E970.

The case consists of 2 parts, a TPU case and a Polycarbonate back cover. The Polycarbonate back cover can be taken off and you can then just use the TPU case.

All buttons remain functional with the case even though the case covers them, and all of the ports and the camera remain functional and accessible.

I have no problem slipping in or taking the phone out of my pocket with the case on.

The case does add significant thickness and heft to the phone, but the case seems solid.

I should mention that I ordered the case from Amzer.com, but it looks identical, and has Ventev printed on the back Polycarbonate cover.

Thanks for the pictures, folks. I'll probably go ahead and get the Ventev case for now until Otterbox comes out If it does, of course).

Got my Ventev GeoCase today. Glad to have protection, but I hate this awful case. It's more of a hard plastic then a TPU case. Buttons are closed up and hard to press. It also adds quite a lot of bulk. Not even sure I'll be able to get the phone out once I get another case.

All my opinion, of course.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] adfurgerson:
The notification light can be seen if you are in the dark. It may be possible to make slits to allow the light to be seen,but if you were to cut the whole area out it may leave the power button recessed so far it would be hard to use.

Mine came from Amazon Marketplace this morning. I installed it and it tried to take up the two bottom corners of my Zagg, but I fixed it and now it's fine. It fits with an extreme tightness that I'm hoping will loosen up over time. It's basically a TPU case with a removable hard plastic skeleton. There are no cutouts for the buttons, just the microphones, 3.5MM, camera, speaker, and micro B. The buttons aren't difficult to press through the TPU material but I have a sneaking suspicion that they will become easier to press as time goes on.
