[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] susmitpatil:
OK. So can you suggest any good ROM which will give the best battery life ?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bananagranola:
I advise that you try some for yourself. Every person has different needs and wants, and every phone reacts slightly differently.

Also, try installing BetterBatteryStats. It will tell you if something else is draining your battery.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tAheEr73:
Same case is mine, anybody help

In my case, when i go airplane mode battery is v. Good but in normal use its worst..
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grayhawk11:
As mentioned above there is no rom which can be pointed out as the one with best battery life. As in your case i advice you to recalibrate the battery ( download battery calibration app from playstore n read up how to use it)...results shows after 1-2 discharge cycles ..... also download greenify from playstore to hibernate some apps)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glevitan:
Battery should be assessed while on stand by. if you are using your device of course you will have drainage. Besides, that is a current widget log and not a betterbattery stats one. find if you device gets into deep sleep while on stand by. If you are a heavy user, then 12 hs it is just fine. Ace devices have a lousy battery life.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tAheEr73:
my stand by time is only 12 hrs with very little use, max screen ON time is 30 minutes in 12 hrs (when my data is ON i am on 2G and also use wifi very less). and when i go to airplane mode my stand by time goes to more than 1.5 days,

whats solution for this problem? this is my current radio and Hboot and i am using viper DHD 2.2.0

i have a new battery just 1.5 month old.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sociofobs:
So yesterday I got a little drunk & waked up today just to realise that I cracked my phone's screen. We somehow jumped over a fence and as far as I remember, my phone flew out of my pocket on concrete from about 4-5 feet. I just bought it & as far as I know, warranty does not apply to these kind of repairs. I searched the web a little & came down to two options. Pay 200 bucks for repairs at certified repair shops or order the glass & repair it myself. 2nd option. Housing itself & digitizer is fine, that's a relief.. Just the glass itself is cracked.

So the question is, I see many options on ebay starting from 8 bucks to 50 bucks. I don't want to replate gorilla glass with something more vulnerable to scratches, so my option would be one of those 50 buck worth gorilla glass that ebay sellers claim to be 'original'. What are the possibilities that that glass is just an overpriced ripoff?

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomboomer:
The glass is glued to the digitizer, very difficult to separate - that's why the proper repair is so expensive as they won't replace just the glass.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sociofobs:
The whole front unit is $200 if I'm not wrong. I've watched many videos on how to replace just the front glass, It's not impossible. Here on xda are many threads about this as well, you don't have to buy the whole front of the phone & you don't have to pay more than 100 bucks for repairs.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alex8337:
Hi everyone,

I've got an international GT-i9100 with AOKP_i9100_jb-mr1_build-6, my problem is that I've got really bad reception (either drops out or 1 bar) but my girlfriends iPhone4s has great reception and can make/receive calls. The problem is only inside my unit, outside the reception is fine.

What I was wondering was if someone here could help me find a flashable CWM modem for the Optus network for my i9100.

I've been scouring threads since 11am and its now 10pm so I think its safe for me to say that I've tried looking for it but couldn't find it.

Help would be hugely appreciated, I'm starting to pull my hair out trying to fix this.

I'm running AOKP_i9100_jb_mr1_build-6 (4.2.2).

Baseband is i9100XXLP6 (I changed to this in CWM, found it in a XDA thread along with others I tried).

I'm rooted.

I'm unlocked.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Read/search this thread. You should be able to find posts from Optus users mentioning which modems they're tried/those that work well.

Also, that reception thing inside a building is pretty much par for the course, and is most likely related to the gear your carrier is using at that particular cell close to where you live. The 'right' modem may solve that problem, or it may not. If you have no joy with modems other Optus users in that thread have said work well for them, it's a case of trying any/every modem you can get your hands on.

But obviously cross that bridge if you get to it.

Edit - Scrub what I just said in that edit. Misread.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alex8337:
There's a bit of reading for the newbies (me) and sometimes the search function isn't as straight forward as it would seem, but it's certainly obvious that many don't even bother searching at all. I've been searching for more than 12 hours now and directing me with a link to a thread with over 350 pages is a little overwhelming.

I'm 5 pages in now and still haven't found an Optus modem for an international GT-i9100...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
I could have ignored your thread completely & you may well have not gotten a reply for days. Would you have preferred that ? I pointed you to that thread because it's the resource on here for AU SGS2 users (being one myself, I've both learned from & contributed to the thread over the past ~18 mths).

Ask in the thread in that case (And be patient once you do, posting every couple of hours because you haven't had a response won't win you any friends).

Edit - You're welcome.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alex8337:
I'm a little confused as to where your hostility towards me is coming from because I don't believe that I've been unreasonable in any way.

I'll take your advice and ask in that thread then and thanks for the advice (I won't post every couple of hours).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] immortalneo:
Relax mate.. MistahBungle means no harm..

I just did a search right now, and I saw that Member djshotty has commented about Optus phones and its modems.

Instead of reading through all the pages, have u tried searching within that forum for 'optus modem'? :)

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
There's no hostility. We have a DIY ethos here. If I hadn't responded to your thread, you would probably never have known/thought to post in the AU thread, which means you may well have got half baked answers at best in this thread (Edit - like the one you just got now), followed by days of running around trying things that won't fix your problem.

That's why I referred you to 'the source'. The answer(s) to your question(s) are either already in that thread or the people who post there regularly/are Optus users can answer them & actually help you get your problem fixed. A lot of people don't read Q&A. Fortunately for you, I do.

Get where I'm coming from yet ?

Someone asks a specific question about a <insert name of country other than Australia here> carrier. Am I going to post some half arsed made up/generic answer ? No, I'm not. I'm not going to post to that thread at all unless a question I can actually answer with some accuracy is asked.

Ur right, I shouldn't have answered. I actually saw the post before u replied to the OP. I didn't reply then. I don't usually reply when I don't know the answer.

Not meaning to but in on your conversation but I think I may have found what I'm looking for.

You've both helped me out equally although your methods where wildly different.

Thanks MistahBungle for linking me to the thread and thanks immortalneo for directing my attention to djshotty.

djshotty has a post in that thread (#3537) that directly answered my question. He has a link to a CWM modem file for the international i9100 for Optus. It's the XXLS9. Straight away I seem to be getting better results from it, text messages are coming through within 5 minutes rather than 3 hours.

Here's a link to the XXLS9 modem CWM file.

I'll post my results with it tomorrow night after a good 18+ hours of use.

Hopefully this thread might help anyone else on the Optus network with a i9100 looking for a better modem
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] immortalneo:
I saw that post with the LS9 modem when I searched. But I decided you should find it out yourself. :D

Good for u mate! Happy to help..:)

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alex8337:
immortalneo, the XXLS9 modem works perfectly. Thank you so much for your help.

But on a note that's totally unrelated to immortalneo's help...

That's exactly what you did. You gave a half arsed generic answer by directing me to the Australian AU Galaxy S II (help/rooting/updates,etc) thread. How unbelievably vague... 350 pages of random issues, questions and information. Of course I'd found that thread well before I started this thread.

Not only was your response rude and obnoxious but you gloated over your half arsed attempt at helping me which is why I can honestly feel no remorse in calling you out on your bull**** attempt at so called 'help' and for being such a doushebag about it.

Luckily I feel no remorse for having posted this because there is no other reason for me to post again on the xda developers forum. Although I do have to mention that the reason why many people like me don't post in forums regularly is because of obnoxious self-righteous arseholes like yourself!

[Xperia Arc General] binhgreat:
You can find some thread for you to move data partition to sd-ext. But there is a easier way to do that: Modify the mount point of sd-ext and data in ramdisk.

The basic step is:

0. Make a nandroid backup

1. Make an ext4 partition on your sdcard (I used gparted in ubuntu, very fast and not lost data)

2. Download your kernel as boot.img

3. Unpack you boot.img (you can find many thread said how to do, and I think the most completly tool you can get from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1241005. You can find the example to unpack boot.img, extract ramdisk, repack ramdisk, repack boot.img from the README.txt file of this tool)

4. Extract ramdisk:

gzip -dc ../unpack/boot.img-ramdisk.gz | cpio -i

If you find ramdisk.cpio file, you need to extract it by

cpio -i -F ramdisk.cpio

5. Modify the mount point of data and sd-ext

- File fstab:

+ Find the line

/data yaffs2 userdata

, and change to

/data ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p2

- File init.semc.rc

+ Find the line

mount yaffs2 mtd@userdata /data nosuid nodev

and change to

mount ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /data nosuid nodev

- File recovery.fstab:

+ Find the line

/data yaffs2 userdata

and change to

/data ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p2

6. Repack the ramdisk

If you extracted from ramdisk.cpio file, you need to pack to ramdisk.cpio first

find . | cpio -o -H newc -O <target path>/ramdisk.cpio

Then repack you ramdisk: At the ramdisk folder:

mkbootfs <ramdisk folder> | gzip > <target path>/boot.img-ramdisk-new.gz

7. Repack boot.img

mkbootimg --kernel <path to>/boot.img-zImage --ramdisk <path to>/boot.img-ramdisk-new.gz -o <path to>/boot_new.img --base `cat <path to>/boot.img-base`

8. Flash boot_new.img

9. Enter CWM, wipe phone and restore from your backup

--> Done
[Xperia Arc General] xperiakias:
Thanks for the info. Or you can go on cmw and create sd-ext from there.
[Xperia Arc General] NoxOn3:
Will it Work with an ext3 partition too?

[Xperia Arc General] ARip Kenpachi:
lol

i dont understand at all... :confused:
[Xperia Arc General] vashta:
It's because the title is wrong.. it's not the "easy way" .. it's a little bit more 'medium - adv user' way.. :D

If it's so hard for you, I think it's better u to search 'script/app' for doing this.

There's a lot available like link2sd, cronmod script, etc ;)
[Xperia Arc General] moxtrom:
Excellent, it worked on Vengeance Kernel, actually that was the only kernel that I was able to extract the ramdisk.

Lupus kernel has is ramdisk in another format (not gzip), and KTG is in a elf file.

The boot took a little bit longer, but i think is more stable than using init.d scripts.

EDIT: Make the backup from an old CWM (like the one on the recoveryARC.img file), newer versions will check for the correct filesystem, and as we are changing it, It will not work. For restore, use any version of CWM (the one included on Vengeance works great).

Also, if you have an LT15i, backup your /system/vendor folder, otherwise, it will be not longer available (and a lot of apps will crash), I copied it into the data folder and made a symlink into /system/vendor (and as your data folder will be bigger, thats no issue).
[Xperia Arc General] zwilhandler:
I can't manage to do the trick on my Arc S with DoomKernel_v22. When I flash the modified .img the phone doesn't start and i can't go into CWM.

I have two partitions on SD, the second one is the ext4 i want to use.

These are the files extracted from Doomkernel:

fstab:

/data yaffs2 userdata
/cache yaffs2 cache

init.semc.rc:

on fs
# mount mtd partitions
# Mount /system rw first to give the filesystem a chance to save a checkpoint
mount yaffs2 mtd@system /system
mount yaffs2 mtd@system /system rw remount
mount yaffs2 mtd@userdata /data nosuid nodev
mount yaffs2 mtd@cache /cache nosuid nodev

recovery.fstab:

/cache yaffs2	cache
/data yaffs2	userdata
/system yaffs2	system
/sdcard vfat /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
/sd-ext auto /dev/block/mmcblk0p2

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greycobalt:
I've seen the threads about the defects with the N7, but nothing I've read really fits what's going on with mine well enough, so I was hoping someone could help me out.

I got it at GameStop (wouldn't have, but I had a ton of credit), and it seemed to be fine for a couple weeks. Then, I started noticing, whenever there was solid black, but the screen was on, there was dozens of lines running horizontally down it. They're varying shades of green/brownish, but very light, almost like ghosting. Also, whenever the screen is showing a lot of white, it flickers in brightness, like the slider is being moved repeatedly. It's very distracting and annoying.

I don't know if the following things are the tablet or just general issues, but I still need advice. ;) I listen to music while I sleep, it helps with my crazy tinnitus. I leave it running using the Google Music player, and two out of three times, I wake up in a couple hours to a weird static stuttering noise. It's hard to explain, but it sounds like it's playing slowly while stuttering and covered in static. No idea what that would be from.

It's also very easy to get the system running extremely slowly. Scrolling and launching apps and any regular operation is super slow, laggy, choppy and unresponsive. Restarting it generally fixes it, but I was always under the assumption Android fixes itself whenever it bogs itself down. In this same vein, even when the system is running fine, using the Chrome browser is slow as all hell. Loading tabs, sites, anything really takes half a minute. Is it just programmed poorly, or do I have all the wrong devices? It seems slow on my Galaxy Nexus as well.

Sorry for the long and rambling post, but I really needed some expert opinions. ;) I'm getting sick of it! I have a warranty through SquareTrade, but with the news of the new version coming out in the next few months I was hoping to wait it out.

First of all, sorry if this has been already asked in the past, i didn't find any thread for this so far.

Recently, i bought a LG Google Nexus 4 from the British amazon, the seller was saying that the device comes unlocked (which means that it can get any sim from any other network provider).

Furthermore, i want to root my Nexus 4 device and i have seen the steps. One of them is "Unlocking your bootloader".

So, my question is how do i find out if the bootloader for this device is already unlocked so i can skip this step on rooting?

Thanks in advance.
