thanks dude, btw i envy your ion. haha. mine doesnt last a freaking day. will try peshovec's solution and yours too. hope i get great result. appreciate your help guys.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ARNOB:
Well, I surf, play and listen with my ion and the battery last almost a whole day. I disable data when I do not use.

When I avoid large usage, it does last around two days.

Try calibrating the battery, drain it to 0% and then charge it fully without any interference.

Hi I recently got a nexus 7 and I followed the instructions I have seen here on how to install flash on my nexus 7.

I sideloaded the latest flash apk and it works for me in the Firefox beta. I haven't tried any other browsers yet. I think firefox beta has it set by default to click for flash to play instead of letting it play automatically.

I'm using CM10.1 Nightlies as my Rom.

Here is a link to the latest from the adobe site.

Flash Player 11.1.for Android 4.0 (11.1.115.34)

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Letitride:
FYI, here's my setup:

Rrunning 4.1.2 stock factory Rom at the moment, unlocked & rooted - turned off/disabled/hide Chrome Browser. D/L & install "Boat Browser" from Market (support Flash) used by some of the custom Rom & d/l Flash 11.1.115.17 from links here on XDA (or from Adobe's website). Boot into Recovery, wipe cache & reboot OS.

Launch Boat Browser, go into Settings (3 dots bar on bottom right) and go to "Page Content Settings" - scroll down if necessary, change "Enable Flash/Plug-ins" to Always on (or "On demand") - Enable JavaScript should be On by default. Changed "Set as default browser" to On as necessary. Exit & restart Browser - you should not have to reboot N7 again and check your ability to open/view most Flash-based videos, mine is working as it should be - no longer shuttting off or getting the error msg/device not supported, yada yada.

As for playback of most stored or d/l videos on the N7 - I liked & used "Mobo" player - free from the Market.

Profit - now, there's a lot more to watch streaming on the N7 besides Youtube & CNN video clips. Questions or more issues, please post & will try to help - not new to Android but still on a learning curve with the N7. Good luck as it should work even for those running near stock setup.

OK what I don't understand is with my desktop if I'm watching a streaming video and it is taking a while to load I will pause it and go do something else while it loads and come back when enough of it is loaded to watch uninterrupted. With my nexus 7 that I just got when I pause the videos don't continue to load. therefore when I try to watch a streaming movie it stops to continue to load every couple of seconds and it makes watching a streaming movie unwatchable.

Another aspect oft CM ist that you can influence the developement quite easy according to your skills. They have an public accessible issue tracker (JIRA), where you can report bugs or suggest new features. They run a code review system (gerrit) where you can submit patches without even beeing a well known developer. If your patch is approved by the maintainers, it's in the git repository and will lands in your device when you install the next nightly.

Get involved!

If you're a flashaholic you will love the nightly builds. Your device improves day by day.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skezza:
Who the hell told you that? I've not seen a single shred of evidence to suggest that the CM10 battery life is better than stock, or AOKP for that matter.

From what most people are reporting, the best battery life is achieved on stock, which unsurprisingly has been the case on most Android devices. CM7 had very poor on battery life on most Android devices, and CM10 has got a reputation for that too. I'm not saying CM10 doesn't have it's benefits because it truly does, and some of them are fantastic, but I reckon if you want good battery life stick with stock.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zaptac:
AW: Stock Android 4.2 vs. Cyanogen Mod 10.1 The differences

That depends totally on the device. On galaxy s (i9000) cm9/10 battery life is ways better than stock (just my experience).
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skezza:
Total bollocks that is. CM9 and CM10 had varying battery life on the i9000 but CM10 seemed to perform fairly poorly battery wise. CM9 was better but then again all ICS roms were better.

No Roms that aren't based on stock for i9000 are better battery wise than the original due to the well known 3G bug (google it if you need), so that is utter rubbish.

No, but I just grew out of CM, in general, a few months back. It's fantastic software yes, it has tonnes of features yes, but the bugs, make it impractical, and there are bugs in CM.

I think it will be probably a few years before I give CM another chance.

I've been looking everywhere for this which it seems to be an 26 digit number, which is a combination of the ESN/AKEY together.If what I have read is correct, entering the code for ESN/AKEY combo will unlock the phone.

There is also another entry through the programmer codes, which is through ##program(7764726) then tap send the phone will then ask for its SPC, which from Verizon this is 000000 then a range of options are listed 02 AKEY, is the one in question.

Hi ...am about to receive my first android device ..NEXUS 4 (moving from nokia 5233) . Can anyone point me how can i get my gmail account ready so that I will have all the phone numbers and images associated with the contacts on the NEXUS on day one.

I have downloaded all the contacts from my phone. I was wondering if there was some software which will pull down all the information(email, birthday, photo) from the facebook and gmail to my system so that i can review and prepare them for the NEXUS 4.

Any other thing which I can do before it arrives will be great. :silly:
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#contacts

You may add, import/export them there. From that point on, a Android device will sync with Google Contacts and sync them.

Facebook.. download FB app and u can sync it with FB (cant do it off the phone)

Apps: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1992163 good list to work off of to prepare what you want in terms of apps.

Want to root? Check out a sticky on how to do it (please dont use the toolkit method).

I suggest fastboot oem unlock (unlocking bootloader) day one. So if you do decide to root or flash a custom rom, kernel you can keep your settings. Whereas, if you decide not to unlock bootloader and want to flash--you will lose your settings and have to start over.

Recommended app if you want to play with your phone; Titanium Backup Pro (backup and restores apps/data)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pseudotsuga.menziesii:
First steps...

If you are currently using GMail to manage all of your contacts, you transition will be a snap. Since an Android device is so intimately linked with Google, all of that information will show up natively, assuming you sign into the same GMail account with the new phone.

Otherwise, if all of your contacts are in a different format, such as a CSV file or another contact file format, you will likely want to import them to your Google account using your PC, instead of your phone. Signing into Gmail will allow you to access a Contacts section where you will be able to upload a file to import all of your contact to your Google account. The Contacts section is a bit hidden; it is within a drop down menu, near the top left of the page, just under the GMail logo.

Good luck!

4ext recovery is much better for me.
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
you can flash any rom you want if you have always enabled first smartflash

the difference between S-ON and S-OFF is that in S-ON devices when flashing a rom it hasn't the ability to write the boot partition by itself(here is where it comes smartflash)

in S-OFF devices there is no need for that feature

that's why most of us with S-ON are using 4ext recovery(smartflash)

In my 4ext recovery,smartflash was enabled by default,but I still check this before I flashing any rom.Thanks for your response.
