[General Questions and Answers] karben.bb:
Hi all ! I have a problem, i dont know if i am able to unlock my bootloader or not i type in *#*#7378432#*#* and it says that bootloader unlock allowed ( no). but i called up rogers customer care and paid 60 dollars to get the phone unlocked. i was given a new imei number and a non rogers sim card. i put the new sim card in and recieved a message on my phone asking if i wanted to unlock my phone. I put in the new imei number and pressed unlock and that was it. so i checked my settings and nothing has changed all is still the same as before. the bootloader unlock allowed still says (no). and the imei number is still the same as before, but the sim card comes up as unprovisioned, i dont know what that means. so i called up customer care again. They say its a problem with sony, and that i have to get in touch with them. although the tech guy that i was talking with through rogers admittedly said he was tech aliterate and didnt have a clue what i was even trying to do. Another question is do i activate the new sim card? I wasnt looking to switch my carrier.

If it works why fix it, this phone was great, I was still running Andis rom, everything worked and some, so I had no reason to get a better phone considering that the service around here has not gotten any better.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsua98:

Why waste your money on the inc2 when you can get a better phone?

...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] FordNate:
Because with a new phone might come better reception as well. Even though no network is really running true 4g coverage yet. These old Dincs are outdated
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] g2gsr:
I agree with the rest. I love my dinc2, but at the end of the day it is getting more and more noticable that it is slowing down and becoming laggier with each new rom flash. Its just old. I'm going to keep mine as long as it lasts or until some great nexus (with 4G) comes out.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] gtdtm:
Semi off topic, but why do you say no network is running true 4g? You don't consider Verizon LTE to be 4g? Just curious.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Addiso:
Because he is saying that we aren't always on 4g and shift to 3g so we aren't on true 4g speeds all the time as how we would be on 3g.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] gtdtm:
I guess, but if that's the definition, then no carrier ever achieved true 3g...Out here in the west my phone still reverts to 1x at times.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Addiso:
Well maybe certain areas I've never had 1x in my area although I do transition from 4g to 3g from time to time.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] FordNate:
Some networks claim to be 4G and all that, but their "advanced network" doesnt go coast to coast and still in spots you only get 3g coverage, Like here in Sacramento there are places my old Dinc2 is faster than "4G" phones on Verizons LTE. Also Some run just a boosted 3G network slap the 4G sticker on it and charge more and cut out our awesome unlimited plans in the pursuit of more money.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsua98:
I've had plenty of 1x times and I live in Dallas... Wtf?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ThePhantom97:
I have not been disappointed with my Samsung Galaxy Nexus, but I did love my Inc2 while I had it!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Addiso:
Well I live in San Bernardino, California have yet to see 1x appear on my phone.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] gtdtm:
I don't think I've checked on my S3, but on my Inc2 I got 1x at my house. I know I can get LTE on my S3, but only if I'm on the second level in just the right corner.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Card83:
To the OP, honestly, why get another Inc2? Even if you don't have 4G coverage in your area right now, Verizon is aiming to almost fully shadow their current 3G map with their LTE network by the end of the year. Now, knowing Verizon, that probably won't actually happen. But even if they get 75% of their 3G area covered with 4G as well, I see no valid reason to limit yourself with a 3G-only device.

And beyond that, the Inc2 is now an old device, relatively speaking. It's a single-core processor that even if overclocked and running smooth as silk, still has nowhere near the processor of more modern devices.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsua98:
Octo-cores...

He means no network offers real 4G.

LTE isn't real 4G.

HSPA+ isn't real 4G.

They're 3.9G (read Faux-G)

LTE Advanced is going to be an actual Fourth generation technology certified by the 3GPP.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Card83:
Technically, Sega shot themselves in the foot with the Saturn. Besides, the original Playstation ended up on top of that generation, as a 32-bit console. :highfive:
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] joefrog1996:
On purpose? Though it's old you should still keep smartphones that work. You never know when you will need a backup phone for when you drop and break your new flagship you will have no where to fall back on. (was that run on?)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Card83:
Since the OP is asking if he should buy another Inc2 or get a different phone, I'm assuming it was an accident. Why break a working phone if you don't have a different phone to use? :confused:
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsua98:
Can we please stop bumping this useless thread? We can use other threads instead :)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] FordNate:
Or we can start new ones asking the same question because no one uses Google or reads the original post (that's what OP means for u noobs n noobs means ur new FYI ) or even care to read other threads with similar issues.

Guys, just need small help, even though i am going through the threads and forums but will appreciate if someone can suggest me that which is best recovery, kernel and ROM for HTC Desire C. What i have come to know till now is that Revolution Sense 3.1 is better. Need suggestions please?
[HTC Desire C] Phenziox:
There is no "best" rom...

You looking for speed? Revolution super stripped

You looking for fluid transitions and a whole new look and feel? Xperialised sense

Looking for full featured, near aosp? Revolutionmod

I wouldn't use any other kernel than Prometheus, try to find a boot img that your device can handle....

And for a recovery you ought to go with twrp

The Orange SPV M1000 does not have a MMS composer so I had to run the installer I found elswhere on this forum to do this.

Once done I could complete the set up and also use the internet explorer.

Installing the MMS program allowed me access to the setting for WAP aswell as MMS. So I could now adapt it for any network.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flashmaniac:
Hello,

I have this different problem with my nexus 4. It appears only on specific backrounds i.e. the backround in the contact-application from google / call-history / settings. I tried resetting the software with the factory image but that didn't help. It came up again at the first boot in the configuration-setup. I brought it back to saturn (thats a shop in germany) for warranty now.

My question is, did somebody experience the same or simular issues with their screen?

I attached a photo that I have taken. You cannot see the lines in a screenshoot, what makes me a 100% sure that it is a HW-Issue.

[HTC Droid DNA] Trooper Thorn:
Last week, prior to the new OTA, my battery life took a noticeable and significant drop.

According to my Battery Widget my fully charged battery lasts on average 1 day 17 hours and 24 minutes. This is typically with between 2 and 3 hours of screen on time. But ever since late last week my battery has been dying in under 24 hours.

I have been using the built in power usage menu, Better Battery Stats, Battery Widget, and now even GSam Battery to try to identify the problem, but I have been unsuccessful. GSam Battery says that apps are using 83.9% of my battery, with the Kernel (Android OS) the largest offender by far (58.5%).

Has anybody else had a noticeable drop in battery life recently? I'm just wondering if it's an app update that has gone wrong somewhere, but I haven't been able to pinpoint anything yet.
[HTC Droid DNA] t1gartist:
which ota are you talking about 2.04 or 2.06?
[HTC Droid DNA] Trooper Thorn:
I'm on 2.06 now, but these issues began last week, prior to the OTA, so it seems to be unrelated to that.
[HTC Droid DNA] crpalmer:
Are you sure it is just prior to the OTA and not the OTA itself?
[HTC Droid DNA] Trooper Thorn:
Yeah it started dying fast last Thursday, and I've ended up having to charge it roughly every 24 hours since then. Didn't get the OTA until yesterday afternoon.
[HTC Droid DNA] Bigandrewgold:
Look at your wakelocks.
[HTC Droid DNA] Trooper Thorn:
For wakelocks I'm seeing:

CPU Usage: 11m 26s

CPU USage (Background Only): 11m 26s

Keep Awake: 2m 27s

Number of Wake Locks: 62

App UID: 1013

Included Processes:

*wakelock*

mediaserver

Nothing too suspicious there? It's only accounting for 6% of my app usage.
[HTC Droid DNA] atishpatel2012:
stock kernel? if so, the only think i can think of is to use an app to find out the wake lock. here is a article that might help. http://goo.gl/t4NDf

did you change any settings that caused the phone to go to sleep after a longer period of time?
[HTC Droid DNA] Trooper Thorn:
Yeah this thing is bone stock and I haven't changed any settings recently.

Thanks for that article, I'll take a look into that app and get it installed when I get out of work and get this thing charged back up.
[HTC Droid DNA] Bigandrewgold:
On gsam click on the 'view kernel wakelock' option.
[HTC Droid DNA] Trooper Thorn:
msm_hsic_host and suspend_bakoff are the two biggest offenders, at 22h and 6h respectively.

Not really sure what this means though, everything I've found via Googling these issues seem to be related to Nexus 4 kernels. I can't imagine I've got a kernel issue being bone stock.
[HTC Droid DNA] Bigandrewgold:
The stock kernel has a major hsic wakelock issue.
[HTC Droid DNA] Novakingwai:
Try cycling your battery. Let it die 100% then recharge it back to 100%.
[HTC Droid DNA] Trooper Thorn:
I've given it three full cycles from 100% to 0% back to 100% now. I unplugged last night when I went to bed with a full charge, and this morning it was down to 74%. I've never lost that much battery over night.

I've got wake lock detector installed, going to try to see what app is to blame. I'm hoping to blame Facebook. It's given me problems in the past with my Rezound, and I know it got an update recently.
[HTC Droid DNA] atishpatel2012:
It might not be an app causing it. You know how the DNA was said to have really bad battery life when it was launched? it was cause of this issue...i think...are you rooted? if so, install a custom kernel and it should have the hsic wakelock fixed. Its weird that the problem just started happening randomly but it seems to be that issue.

Try disabling fastboot and restarting if you haven't already?
[HTC Droid DNA] Trooper Thorn:
I'm not rooted, running bone stock.

I've had the phone since November, I got it a few weeks before they were even launched (HTC sent it to me) and the battery has been an absolute champ the entire time I've owned it. If it's something kernel related I'd be really surprised, as this only just started happening last week.

I'll try disabling fastboot and restarting to see what that does for me, though honestly I've never changed those settings in the roughly 5 months of owning the phone, so I still feel like there has to be something I can uninstall to resolve.

According to both GSam and Better Battery Stats, something is keeping my phone awake nearly constantly. In the screenshot below, you can see that since the last boot, the phone has been on for 4h 27m, and it's been awake for 4h 22m. Only 18m of screen on time.

I installed Wakelock Detector this morning after my battery had dropped from 100% to 74% overnight. I rebooted and it's been running ever since, so I guess I'll keep an eye on it as the day progresses. Right now it's not showing anything unusual, at least so far as I can tell. Maybe I should just recharge back to 100% and let it start fresh.
[HTC Droid DNA] Trooper Thorn:
Well I finally did this yesterday and it seems to have done the trick. Not really sure why that would become a problem randomly after 5 months, but the battery is running seemingly even better than before now.

I couldn't charge it to a full 100% last night, but I got it to 99% and I had to head out, and it's been off the charger for 15 hours now and is still at 90%.

Kudos to you, thanks for the tip!
[HTC Droid DNA] atishpatel2012:
no problem! i'm glad i could help! :) the thing is..fastboot doesn't allow your device to fully shut down so disabling that and restarting closes everything and allows the phone to actually reboot.

I think its a dumb option since phones usually aren't restarted unless there is a need for it...i go weeks without having to restart so why do i need a option thats going to save me 10 seconds for problems. i always keep it disabled.
[HTC Droid DNA] Jrocker23:
How do you have 90% after 15 hours? What did you shut off? Your on wifi i assume. That is amazing battery if so. Sorry for being skeptical but that seems impossible...
[HTC Droid DNA] Trooper Thorn:
Well for the first three hours I was on 4G but I just wasn't using the phone much. Got home and had it set to WiFi for about two or three hours, then went to bed and shut off both WiFi and Mobile Networks (I always do that at night).

It did seem pretty ridiculous to me as well, but you can check out the screenshots below. The first one was earlier, the next two I just took.
[HTC Droid DNA] Jrocker23:
Wow, that is really nice. Appreciate the pics, I would have took your word on it. I just thought maybe there was some new trick or something that I missed.

Thanks again
[HTC Droid DNA] Trooper Thorn:
No worries. I was just as shocked.
[HTC Droid DNA] RLGL:
Fastboot was enabled on mine for the last 24 hours. I used 70 % of the battery. Normal is less than 30 % for 24 hours. Usually I have about 1 to 1.5 hours of screen time, usually internet. .5 hour on the phone and several texts a day.
[HTC Droid DNA] Trooper Thorn:
The problem has mysteriously come back. Fastboot is still unchecked, and a reboot isn't clearing it.

So I used the gnexus toolkit, erased the phone, and went back to 4.1.1 stock with an unlocked bootloader, stock recovery, no root. The phone downloaded the OTA 4.2.1 update, tried to install it, I got hte dead android guy with the red warning logo, and now I've installed TWRP and rooted, still couldn't get the OTA to go.
