Well, it really depends on his usage. I can get 5-6 hours screen on time if I'm just texting and looking at reddit, cut if I'm streaming music for 5 hours straight ill have just an hour or 2 of screen on time. And that's how its supposed to be.
[HTC Droid DNA] cstrife999:
Used google music from 11pm last night till roughly 4am with screen on. I think you might have a defective unit. I also have three other people owning a DNA that has similar battery life. Maybe UKB has something to do with it or me having NFC off, but I dunno. I had 25 percent left too. No music on my phone for obvious reasons so Google Music is my love :)
[HTC Droid DNA] Bigandrewgold:
Sorry, but that's bullcrap. There's no way you had your screen on for 5 hours while streaming content and still had 25% left.
[HTC Droid DNA] Funkym0nkey:
Not really. Like I said, I stream a lot. And by that I mean streaming music. Active wifi connection will eat your battery on every phone if its continuously streaming for long time. Most of that time, screen is off, but still battery usage is more than moderate.

I stream it when I am home, in car over bluetooth and lot of time I am fiddling with Gmaps. These are all heavy battery eaters.

I run my Note 2 down to 15-20% with similar use. So DNA almost running out of juice is no surprise.
[HTC Droid DNA] deathrow1992:
That's weird. Today I used my phone non-stop just streaming videos, texting, you name it and it lasted me about 6-7 hours and I'm not kidding.

3 hours is atrocious you should throw the phone at whoever gave it to you lol.
[HTC Droid DNA] Bigandrewgold:
No one is getting 3 hours till dead. 3 hours screen on time on the other hand isn't horrible depending on what your doing.
[HTC Droid DNA] RBarnett09:
Just wait until the HTC M7 releases in February.
[HTC Droid DNA] Funkym0nkey:
Who said 3 hours life? I said about 3 hours 20 mins of display On time while doing lot of streaming and maps activity which means GPS usage to go along with the rest of the normal use which includes about 50 minutes of calls, 20 odd texts and lot of messages on whatsapp and gtalk.

Read my post. The phone lasts till the end of the day for me. Just about, but it does. It is just that those coming from Note 2 are spoiled in this regard :laugh:
[HTC Droid DNA] cstrife999:
No its not. You can think what you want. I know what I know. Just used it last night from 11pm to about 2am and had good battery left. Maybe Google music doesn't constantly stream or something dunno.
[HTC Droid DNA] deathrow1992:
Oh ok. I read that completely wrong then. XD
[HTC Droid DNA] Serinety:
You make a valid point. Touching the screen, swiping screens, typing.. games.. ya if all that was going on for 6 hours straight your probably right.

That's a hard thing to test.. I don't particularly have time to spend 6 hours testing it

I'm a senior electrical engineering student minoring in physics. Thanks for the props, its not much different than having a full time job, other than the brain melting part lol

Hello guys, newbie here.

Recently i found out that baseband -56 improves battery life, so i flashed 4.0.2.A.0.42 on my neo V with Flashtool. The battery life much better. But now, i'm starting to miss the ICS. So,

1. Is the -56 baseband compatible with .587 ICS firmware?

2. Is there a better battery life-prolonging baseband for .587?

3. Is flashing basebands safe?

Thanks a lot.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] vishal_android freak:
I had flashed 77 baseband on .562 firmware.. had no problems.. i guess it will work.. didnt find any considerable battery stats though..

Flashing a baseband is risky if you dont flash it properly.. it can brick your radio and your cell will lose network forever..:(

Follow procedures properly given in xda development threads about flashing basebands before doing anything..:) search..

Hope i fulfilled your need.. hit thanks if i did..;)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Kecal79:
Thank you. I think I won't flash a baseband, only flash .587 with Flashtool and check "Exclude baseband". Is that safer?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Ghostfreak NB:
Just flashing baseband won't affect you if you use ICS!

As I've only tried switching on ICS!

You could try! But keep a backup with you beforehand

I don't know if it has anything to do with TWRP or not, I'm using amon ra. Pretty sure it isn't related to recovery.

Well you can install a custom kernel to also get recovery if somehow your method doesn't work. Try perseus.

Well for custom CWM recovery try flashing a custom kernel via ODIN,

Download Perseus.

Install mobile odin.

Play store version is paid but there is a thread on xda which provides a lite free version.

Download the recpvert you want. Make sure its in img format.

Then rename it to recovery.img

Then open mobile odin.

Select recovery and tell it the file's location.

Then don't touch anything just scroll down and select flash.

Then just restart.

Being unified also means that it is a good candidate for integration into the Linux kernel mainline, which would mean that Android would no longer require it's own separate branch of Linux.

So I've read this but what would that mean in terms of developement? If Android didn't have to be a separate branch of Linux, would it be easier to spread ROMs to all the different phones?

regnsy pronounced
[HTC Rezound] brenuga:
I'm not a dev, but in my understanding the biggest hurdle for porting ROMS is device drivers. It is relatively easy to port a ROM from the HTC One X to the HTC Rezound, because they are made by the same manufacturer, have the same system-on-a-chip manufacturer (Qualcomm) and have a similar stock kernel based on different versions of HTC Sense.

But porting a ROM from, let's say a Samsung Galaxy III is nigh impossible, because it uses a different system-on-a-chip exclusive to Samsung phones and its stock kernel is based on TouchWiz. And even though Android is based on Linux, each of the phone manufacturers have slightly different ways of organizing system files that set the various system options. So a kernel patch that works on one device probably won't work on another. (kernel level features such as GPU overclocking, two-way call recording etc. rely on these system setting files).

Even among phones made by the same company, you may have hardware differences such as different camera technologies, different screen resolutions, etc. that make porting harder.

That's why cyanogenmod, AOKP and MIUI are so valuable and appreciated, because they organize porting of a ROM that, as far as the kernel and GUI are concerned, vary little between devices. However those projects still have to rely on what manufacturers choose to release as open source to develop hardware device drivers to port the ROM to each device.

And then you have the problem of, what level of Android is officially supported by the manufacturer? The Droid Incredible 2, for example, is still waiting for an official ICS release it may never get, which means running Jellybean as it is meant to be run is that much harder. It's hard enough on the Rezound, where we have official ICS kernel source.

That's why I give lots of kudos to people who take custom ROMs like BAMF paradigm, paranoid android and the like that were developed for other devices and port them to the Rezound. And mega kudos to people like chad who can port/re-factor underlying hardware code originally developed for another device to work on the Rezound. We're talking crazy wizard-level stuff like memory management, camera, hardware graphics optimization (Project Butter).

This was a Customers phone that they brought in and said that the phone seems to be broken is there a reset button. So I turned it on and it booted up fine the all of a sudden it decided to stay on the LG logo and now its on a white fuzzy screen. I do not know if it has been tampered with a.k.a. rooted but wanted a general opinion on what a fix could be.

[General Questions and Answers] Product F(RED):
I used to work at Sprint as a technician. If you have access to replacement parts, try replacing the screen if you can't get to the home screen. It's an easy phone to open up, I still remember.
[General Questions and Answers] drneely:
the screen is working fine and it only bugs out to the white screen every now and again. The digitizer is in good shape and the LCD has a clean picture. The phone just stays looped on the LG Logo for now, and unfortunately we dont have parts for this phone since its not a newer phone so I cant throw anything at it >:(
[General Questions and Answers] Product F(RED):
If the screen goes white randomly, then it's probably either a bad connection (check the LCD's ribbon cable to the main board), or liquid damage that didn't make the sticker go red (it happens). It sounds like physical damage. Hell, for all you know, the person could have fudged up the software, panicked, and tried to beat it to hell to make it seem physical, but I think that's going out on a limb.
[General Questions and Answers] drneely:
true, i believe its more of an internal board issue than a bad connection. The phone does have a good bit of physical damage to it so it could be that. Thanks for your help

The other day I let the Samsung Company lead me when they said there was an update for my phone. Thinking that I would enjoy the lovely 4.0 ICS as a change from the Nice 2.3.6 GB. I let Samsung talk me into flashing my alltel phone. Low and behold they gave me a USC flash to replace my current Alltel network. This is the first time doing something this drastic to my cellphone and now I don't have any data communication on my phone. Does anyone know where I can find an alltel gingerbread flash for the Galaxy S2 SCH-R760. I've searched (what I feel as) Everywhere and can't find anything. My phone is only 2-3 months old so I would prefer not to root it.

I am trying to root.. I also have Alltel Samsung Galaxy S II 4.52 inch Model SCH-R760.. It's also running stock Gingerbread 2.3.6, and since there won't be any OTA Official updates for this particular model, I am going to try to root and update to ICS or Jellybean.. I have looked at several forums, and I have never root before.. Yep I'm a NOB.. Can anyone help me, who has this device and successfully rooted..

Of course I would rather not root, but to the best of my knowledge, it's the only way I will be able to get ICS or Jellybean..
