I am a Member of the UK parliament and from time to time my phone goes mental with phone calls. I have, therefore, written a widget to make handling phone calls more efficient (less pressing of buttons and swiping). This is available on google play if you search for my name as John Hemming.

There is another MP who wants to use my widget, but he has a Samsung phone. I can get the widget to resize on my HTC SV One, but not on Samsung. The relevant resizeable parameter is set as vertically resizeable (It is designed to sit on the main home screen taking up 2 columns and between 1 and 4 rows telling you who has called you and who you have called with each person only appearing once).

Can anyone suggest why it won't resize on Samsung. It will resize on Sony. Although the target is an S3 it appears that this is a general issue with Samsung that means that not all widgets that resize on other phones will resize on Samsung.

The XML for the widget provider is as follows:

<appwidget-provider

xmlns:android=(removed because it rejects my post if I put this bit in)

android:minWidth="110dp"

android:minHeight="110dp"

android:updatePeriodMillis="1800000"

android:initialLayout="@layout/widget_layout"

android:resizeMode="vertical"

android:minResizeWidth="110dp"

android:minResizeHeight="35dp"

android:previewImage="@drawable/preview" android:widgetCategory="home_screen">

</appwidget-provider>
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] johnhemming:
I have got round it by creating multiple widgets with different sizes. They are static on Samsung, but resizable on other phones.

Hi,

I bought a new battery and I believe it's fake as it doesn't lost much (1 day) with my current usage (email is downloading, under 30 minutes of phone talk, a couple of SMSs, a couple of webapges opened).

Could you, please, tell me this:

Approximately the batter life when your phone was brand new

Approximately the current battery live

Time since you bought the phone

Time it take to charge your phone to 100% (does your phone charge really fast to about 60% and then very slow to 100%?

Thank you very much
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] shortyoko:
1. something around 2 days, not 100% sure but it was something around this

2. Current according to GSam battery monitor is 22h 20m, but that's now because I'm addicted to parking game, this is what kills it so fast, normally is again something around 2 day(a little less than before)

3. 1 Year and 3 months +/- one month

4. This I have no idea, I just leave it on the charger and don't track this. Next time I'll check it out and let you know what's up with this.

Now something more, according to one user from another forum(It's Bulgarian, so I won't give you link here). Now he says that when the phone was new, he did 10-15 full cikles of the battery(0-100-0) without charging in between, now he is really happy, I'll post screenshot later, that his phone stayed On for something around 7 days, mine even in the cupboard doesn't do that. Here is the screen
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] shree alwaz:
OWWWWWWWW.. 7days.. i think its fake..
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] thewisenerd:
I guess he hasn't rooted it.

And, probably, has only rarely used. it.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] abhinavthms:
Its totally fake as you can see the cpu was awake most of the time....You won't get that battery life even if you keep your phone idle.........I get near 2days.....

Re: [Q] Do you remember the new phone battery life?

I agree..I thought shortYoko himself got that battery @ First glance and was confused.

Further more *stock Rom *landscape mode battery chart *~never remember seeing like that ~May be wrong.

[HTC Pico (Explorer)] BleedingIris:
Re: [Q] Do you remember the new phone battery life?

1.approx 18 hours.

When installed cranium ~approx 1 and half days

Overnight 100 to 97 in cranium (with internet off )

2. Currently on cm10 beta5,garuda kernel ~30%+ lost overnight .

On really heavy usage(no Wi-Fi, mobile data full downloading, screen always on,xdaing,gaming) 3 to 4 hours Max ~@ this rate ~average 2 hours only

4. Not sure ~but probably a hour or so.. sometimes that happens ~I call it stuck @60 syndrome (but it gets stuck @ various other places 39,59 are commons )

3. Around a year.

[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Red Devil:
Yep agree with ^ptc... doesn't look legit

I remember getting a good 26-27 hours with music of about 1-2 hours + 24*7 2g + autobrightness ... I remember once in a dire situation managed to pull it through for 34 hours with minimum brightness and full drain..

No livewallpapers no launchers.. Just stock with a few apps like whatsapp and facebook.. Thats about it. :D

Now battery life is about 20 hours.. moderate - light usage ( on my own MiUI build #3.. got better battery with cm10 sometimes )..

My phone is about 11 months old now :)

last question.. I dont know. dont keep track of it while charging..
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] abhinavthms:
I manage to pull through about 24-30 hrs with little bit of wifi here and there.....

If not using wifi i get upto 40hrs.......

Our pico has awesome battery anyway.....:fingers-crossed:
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] thewisenerd:
Re: [Q] Do you remember the new phone battery life?

1. Around 2 days with moderate usage of Wi-Fi and phone calls, and some gaming.

2. Lasts for a day, with moderate Wi-Fi usage, music and calling for about 30 minutes or so.

3. 9 months.

4. Nope. It increases uniformly.

[HTC Pico (Explorer)] shortyoko:
Well honestly saying, even I don't know, maybe it's fake I can't be sure but there are couple more of this pic's. And yes that's totally stock rom, he haven't rooted his phone even now(the pic is from 04.04.2012 or at least then was uploaded). Here are a bit more of this pic's http://gl.belgarionbg.info/di-513288169517.jpg , I know it's states 5 days only but now I couldn't find more of the 7 days usage, these 2 are in the same post with the 7 days http://gl.belgarionbg.info/di-1113387624443.jpg http://gl.belgarionbg.info/di-1213387624448.jpg About that the guy sayed that this is with very little usage, I have no explenation, mine even left somewhere can't do this.

@ptcpayme- Yes there was landscape mode in stock rom, I mean the pic still can be fake, but the landscape is not.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] BleedingIris:
Re: [Q] Do you remember the new phone battery life?

I know landscape is in stock Rom, but what I'm not sure is that

usually system settings and battery chart can't be landscaped as far as I remember.

From what I know ,

battery calibration is fake*confirmed by google itself *.

I know this kind of 0 to 100 and 100 to 0 for 15 cycles should kill your battery rather than enhancing it. ( I'm daily doing it,~I only charge, when it drops to 0)

I've heard about a thing called bump charging HTC batteries, which goes something like severely overcharging to break some kind of barrier in the Lion battery *which will reduce long term battery life *but enhance battery time alive *~I don't know whether this point is true ~

But this is outrageous.

Obviously the first picture is edited. Even so, display takes only 2%?. And if you split the bottom part into two, you get 2.5 days, ~ In 2.5 days on the right , he turned screen on the only 8/9 times? ~practically thrown the phone in cupboard.

And he charged inbetween about 30%

And what about other apps? ~if you're downloading as much apps like it's shown~atleast google play should take some amount of charge,which should be shown.

2nd screenshot:

Time since boot: 341 hours? That's 14days? What's he suggesting?

Even if he admits he changed his battery,it's hard to accept this,unless someone I know~ you /some renowned member here proves otherwise.

Only possible way, I think he just put the maximum frequency @122 mhz and thrown the phone in cupboard~even then, I'm not sure it's possible ~

However there's nothing in this screenshot that I can see to prove that this is fake.

Anyway what's his point in showing all this? And what's the app showing battery in the top left?

"If it's not now, then it's when"?

1. when i brought it lasts about 1day to 1.5day

2. ma battery life is approx. 20 to 1day. im using apex rom v1. i never swithchoff the internet, music atleast for 5hrs, wifi for 1/2 hr to 1hr.

3. more than 1year.

4. while charging till 60 to 70%(i dont remember exactly) it chanrges in an 1/2hr. after that it takes at least 2 to 3 hrs to get full change..

dont be thankful. hit hit that button.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Blue3125:
Re: [Q] Do you remember the new phone battery life?

My battery last about 14 hours of average use like music 2-3 hours , always connected to WiFi or else if I'm out I use 3G. Sometimes , mostly while travelling I watch Sone episodes of batman (Arround 20 min ) with headphones plugged in .

I prefer to charge at night , and it last till 9 pm at night , well that enough for me .

But as when I was using flyrom v3 , it lasted for about 9-10 hours on the same usage .

I'm using currently stock rom and juice defender which had improved my battery life Arround 5-10 % ,

Well if tour fond of your battery , then I recommend using stock Rom as battery was te only reson I flashed back to stock .

My phone charges extremely fast , it's like fully charged from 0%-100% within 90-100 minutes .

And our pico has a better battery life than desire HD or sensation XE.

I've tried both for a week and pico lasts for about 1 day on single charge whereas desire HD NEEDED a charge every 6-7 hours if connected to WiFi and using facebook , browsing a few web pages.

[HTC Pico (Explorer)] shortyoko:
@Blue3125- Can you add, is there landscape in battery stats since you are with stock rom, not that it's something important, I just got really curious.

@ptcpayme- Now I see your logic and yea, you are damn wright about your toughts, I've given the dude link to this thread, if he has some balls, he should register and tell us how did he do that, if not, well it's obvious fake(more obvious than now). Just about 'time since boot', I think that's the time while the phone was never restarted or switched off(which also I can never do, but maybe it's possible with stock rom). But nevermind.

Now something on topic for a change :) . I've checked out, my battery also stucks somewhere while charging (this time at 72%), also I've discovered that to get from 97% to 100% takes a bit more than getting from 80% to 90% (these two are just for example). This is while charging from PC, can somebody tell is there any difference if we charge it from a wall socket(I lost mine some months ago), except faster charge of course.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Blue3125:
Re: [Q] Do you remember the new phone battery life?

Well I've now flashed sense 4 so as far as I know , there wasn't any landscape graph if we switch orientation so that screenshot is probably fake

Well battery on apex sense Rom is aweful , not more than 4-6 hours :o

But anything is far in love , war and sense 4 on my pico XD :D

Wow, just wow. You are a liar.

The truth is I didn`t receive such message from you on our android forum, because if I did I would wreck you with proofs, that is why you didn`t give it to me, isn`t it!

I just found this thread by random search. So may be later but better than never I will use my right to defend myself.

Btw the original thread that I shared my experience with the battery life is here- link The screens are long gone, still have them somewhere.

Here you can see that I`m the said owner of the Explorer .

And yes, that nick came from my first smartphone which was that Explorer. Still use it today - still have great battery life.

I was going to post brutal amount of screenshots but to avoid chances of fake accusation I decided to take video instead. So here it is >

https://youtu.be/CkqIOf7UvOI /I`m posting the direct link because [YOUTUBE] tag didn`t work/

I have not rooted the phone as you can see, but I`m using the NEXT shell instead of the boring sense.

In the beginning of 2012 I managed to hit that record with over 7 days of use, never made it again thought. But something like ~5 days? - Easy! It never occurred to me that somewhere someone would named me as someone making fake claimings, otherwise I would make some videos at that time.

That number is about how many hours are gone by after the last restart/turn off the phone. :)

If you still want more proof just tell me what you want to do with it. Its not a problem to give you access through virtual machine (safety first) with the phone connected and be able to install stuff and check it all you want. That still would not change the great battery life.

And no, his place in not in some cupboard - this is my office phone. Its just that I rarely using it for talking, also I`m not using internet - for that I have my HTC 601. :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigkusi:
I've been reading many threads with a problem similar to mine, but I think my problem is more complicated.

My phone was unlocked and debranded when I first bought it. The product code used to be (TTT)-trinidad and tobago. Someone from the technical service messed with the firmwares and changed it to this:

AP: I9300XXELLA

CP: I9300BOLK3

CSC: I9300CROLL1

This firwmare appears to be a branded croatian T-mobile. To debrand it, I used the option "Upgrade and initialisation" on Kies. After that the firmware changed to an earlier version but the product code was still CRO even though I changed the firmware. KIES didnt support this firmware, so I installed the previous firmware the one that I put on the beginning of this post (this time using ODIN).

The problem here is, that when I connect to KIES now, I get the same message: Your device's current firmware version is not supported to update via Kies only this time the firmware that appears on Kies is as follows:

Current firmware: PDA:LLA / PHONE:LK3 / CSC:LL1 (TTT)

>>>so to sum it up, it shows TTT when I install croatian firmware, and CRO when I install Trinidad and Tobago firmware

Can someone please tell me what is going on here? Which firmware do I actually have, and how can I match all these stuff , so I can upgrade firmwares in the future via Kies or OTA. My current firmware is AP: UBEMA1, CP:UBELL1, CSC: UUBELL1, while checkfus shows the product code as GT-I9300MBLCRO. Should I keep this firmware or better yet install a european one. I live in Macedonia (Europe)

I'm sorry about this long post but I'm really confused. Thank you for your time
