[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] tebor8:
I just wiped my phone and started from scratch and decided to not add any tweaks at all. I am using Cm9 RC8 with Hursky kernel 2.6 and I've noticed a huge jump in my battery life. Before I was using RAM Manager with Cross breeder with XBurst on RC 6 with Chronos and I find my phone is actually faster without them. Before, with limited use, I was getting 16 hours maximum and now I was able to get a day and a half under the same conditions!

I wonder which change would make the biggest difference, but maybe give it a try. My phone feels more stable too.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] jassim007:
So Cm has very good battery life....I see. But I dint install any tweaks but battery still drains..well I will give it a try.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] imadiu:
Probably because CM 10/10.1 is still at its early stages? Cm9 is quite stable thus the battery is good.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] jassim007:
I wanted a solution on how to get good battery life in Jelly Bean...but I will try Cm9 with fresh apps.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] honeyx:
If you want a even better battery life than tebor8 is having, use CM9 RC2 or RC3 with 2.6.35 kernel, or the older Slimbeam ROM with 2.6.35 kernel. The old 2.6.35 kernel is draining much less than the new 3.x kernel in CM9 and CM10.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] jassim007:
I want to use the latest CyanogenMod, but still if the battery lasts for at least 1 and a half day, its somewhat enough.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thedynamix:
Hi guys,

I recently unlocked my old HTC Wildfire which was locked to 3 so that I could put my O2 SIM in there while my One S gets fixed.

However, since the unlock, I can't seem to be able to connect to 3G. I have had O2 send me the folowing APN details, which I entered and checked to be my default, but still nothing:

Name: O2 Mobile Web

APN: mobile.o2.co.uk

Username: o2web

Password: password

MCC: 234

MNC: 10

Any ideas guys?

Thanks,

Nick

Are you payg or contract?

My 3G is turned on when I toggle network to WCDMA.

Maybe that will help.

Hey everyone, I've been using my hox+ rooted for some time now, never flashed a ROM and was wondering if I update to the new att software will I lose root?
[HTC One X+] kingofnice:
Yes. Just make sure you have a custom recovery and flash the root installer zip. Or if you have TWRP, after a the flash, it will ask to install root.
[HTC One X+] frank7919:
Hey thanks for the response, I'm running twrp 2.4 the thing is I don't know whether to to let the phone update through its regular way of updating or do I flash this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2235248, the problem with flashing this is I don't

Know how to flash boot IMG. Sorry I'm a noob any help would be greatly appreciated.
[HTC One X+] kingofnice:
Use this command in fastboot.

fastboot flash boot /location/of/boot.img
[HTC One X+] Lucky Thirteen:
If your bootloader is unlock and your phone has a custom Recovery, the official AT&T update won't install on your phone. If you want the update, or you wait for a custom ROM with the update to be available, or you relock bootloader, and flash the latest RUU to recover the original state of your phone. Then you can still unlock with the same token and install a custom recovery to root your device.

Thanks much fellas, you've been a great help!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] IVIorph:
It seems that many people are having this issue...

I've noticed when using the new T-mobile MC6 4.1.2 roms

that when I take my phone off the charger showing 100%

it instantly drops to 96% or 97%

I own multiple batteries and have an external charger

when I charge externally it shows 100% correctly

even if I plug in charger and unplug it again will still show 100%

it seems the new roms are not allowing the battery to charge fully

let me know what you guys think...at same time I will keep testing and posting
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bobbyphoenix:
Same here.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mtthwkns:
Ran into the same problem a month ago. I flashed my phone back to stock, re rooted my phone, and then ran a battery callibrater app. I got better battery life and a quicker recharge. Don't forget to fully discharge your battery and run the app again. I hope this helps and happy modding.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Flambo182:
Try taking out the battery for a couple minutes then put it back in and fully recharge. Should recalibrate it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] IVIorph:
So far I have swapped my battery out 2x with my external charger

both times rebooting into JMT JB it showed 100% properly both times

in the middle of the night last night I pulled the charger out when it said 100%

it dropped again immediately to 97%

I plugged it back in... when I woke up I unplugged it again stayed at 100%

15 min later still at 100%

I will try and install AOKP and see if the problem stops
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] IVIorph:
it seems that the rom is reading the battery wrong

when I boot to recovery it shows different percentage

right now I am at 92% in JMT JB

when I go to recovery it say 95%

when I reboot back to rom it says 92% again
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] IVIorph:
I went back to AOKP M1

and the better shows the same % in rom as in recovery...

going to keep trying diff things...

its gotta be the 4.1.2 T-mobile rom
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] iburnhearts:
You do realize you could edit a previous post instead of spamming your thread just to bump it.

As for your issue it seems to be a battery calibration problem...just let the ROM settle in and you'll be fine

Have you tried using gsam to see what your battery level is after you unplug it
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] IVIorph:
thanx I appreciate your input... cheers m8 ;)

btw... after using AOKP and doing 2 charges...

the phone went back to reporting the 100%

correctly and didn't drop when when unplugged

I will also be testing my phone with official koodo/telus roms 4.1.2 based

to see if its just t-mobile 4.1.2 based roms with this problem
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] IVIorph:
This should be me last post on this subject...

after trying the latest Koodo and Telus roms and charging my phone using them

the same glitch occurs when you pull out micro usb shows less than 100%

my conclusion... this issue seems to be on the stock 4.1.2 based roms only

and is not a significant issue...

if you want 100% just re-plug it back in for a little while... and fixed

hope these posts have helped to understand this silly little issue

cheers m8's :)
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] scott1269:
This rom is cool but can anyone tell me how to get the buttons to work when the phone is off again? Also the calendar language is not english any idea on where to set that? I've looked but I can't find the answer in the forum or in the docs.

Thanks love this site and the great people on here!

Scott
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Biso007:
I 'm sorry I couldn't get to exactly what you meant in your questions:

1. The buttons issue: you mean how to turn on the xda when you press any key and not only the power key ? ... if yes, then it's on Start -> settings -> phone -> more -> select "Don't lock buttons"

2. The calendar issue: you mean that everything is in english except the calendar, or the whole ROM is not english ??
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] scott1269:
clarification

Sorry my post was not clear...

I'm speaking of the buttons on the front of the device 2 phone buttons the claendar and contacts buttons. The 3.017.03 ENG doc says they will be disabled but doesn't say how to enable them. I'm too new to know!

The calendar is not english but everything else is. 3.17.03 ENG

Thanks!!

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] cntchds:
I am extremely happy I got the phone yesterday after pre-ordering on the 5th, but Best Buy really left a sour taste in my mouth. First off, they did not recognize my entry in their "Phone Freedom" program which offered a $50 gift card if you bought a phone through them within the year. The stupid thing is, they said that they couldn't find my email address in the system, yet I only started getting emails about their specials after I signed up for that promotion. That made me pretty unhappy. I even signed up twice for the promotion a few days apart since I thought it was so strange that I didn't get a confirmation email the first time. After I didn't get it the second time, I just assumed that they weren't sending out confirmations (Strange, but I didn't think it just wouldn't work twice in a row).

The next thing was that it is plastered all over the walls in the mobile section of their store that they price match and have a low-price guarantee; yet they only price match phones that are purchased off contract. That might be common place on this forum with phone fanatics, but out in the real world (in the US at least) most phones are purchased with a contract. Saying that they price match "any deal" and then ruling out 90%(Edit: I guess I was a little optimistic, 66%) of phone purchases doesn't really seem like fair advertising to me.

Has anyone else purchased their One at Best Buy? Did you get your gift card if you signed up for the Phone Freedom program? The cashier said that it was a very common problem, and that it only really worked if you went in store to sign up, and that the online entry didn't really work.

I love the phone. I can not believe how much better it feels compared to my aging E4GT, but I wish I had a better purchasing experience.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Marty:
When I signed up online for the "phone freedom", I did get a confirmation email and I made sure to save it. When I upgraded my phone last year, I also made sure to take a hard copy of the email with me just in case. Good thing too because their system was down and the only way they were willing to give me that discount was if I could show them the confirmation email (which I did). After that, the manager adjusted the price by $50. When I upgrade to the HTC One (as soon as the black version is available), I am definitely going to be sure to take a copy of the new confirmation email I got from BB when I signed up again earlier this year.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] mang0:
The price match policy actually really just depends on particular stores and what policies they know and abide by.

Best Buy's policy most recently changed on 3/3/2013 to exclude contract mobile from price matches. However some stores will still recognize and offer price matches to brick and mortar stores for contract phones, which was their old policy. Unfortunately, I was unable to find a brick and mortar store that had a price less than $199.99 when I went to my local BB. :(
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] cds0699:
I bought mine through best buy and got my $50 off for the phone freedom, and had a good overall experience. Sorry you had troubles though.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] pbedard:
yes i got mine no issue pre ordered the 6th i love the phone
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] rtoodeetwo:
I did the pre order there and I also got my confirmation for the $50 gift card from the freedom program, Also I did my research where to order the phone and I knew they changed the price match policies to be able to match online retailers but excludes on contract cell phones. I guess they did because amazon prices their smartphones dirty cheap after a few months(With a new line).
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] demo27vol1:
I know its a little off topic but does anyone know if Best Buy's Black Tie program is any good? I'm pretty sure they tried to make you buy it if you bought the phone. When I bought my iPhone they made it seem that I could destroy the thing and get a new one free of charge for only $10 a month. I'm thinking of getting insurance for my One when I get it because I don't want to get a case and hide its premium feel. I heard it doesn't hold up against scratches and drops too well :c?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] rtoodeetwo:
I brought their insurance for my daughter's Note II back in november and I got it for my One, is cheaper if you buy the 2 years in advance $169 vs $240($10 * 24 months) + taxes. So far the only claim I have done is for the Note's charger, my daughter somehow pulled the plastic tubing that covers the charging cable close to the USB plug, We went to best buy and they order me an new whole charger( charger box+ cable) and they let me keep the charger box. I read the fine print and it covers damage accessories(included with phone) for 1 time replacement. The only thing that doesn't cover is if the phone is lost or stolen with $0 deductible.

Also if you decide to get the black tie insurance as a bonus, when is time to upgrade to a new phone they have trade-in plus, They will give you 100% the value of your phone at the time of trade-in plus a $50 gift card.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] cds0699:
I do indeed have best buys insurance and am very happy with it. I got it with my Galaxy S2 and a month after I got the phone I dropped it on concrete and cracked the screen all up.

I went to best buy and told them what happened. They said they had to send it off and offered me a temp rental phone to hold me over ($50 charge that they refund when you return it undamaged). I took the rental and like a week later I went back and they said the damage to the casing was too bad (it was scraped up on the side badly) and it was unrepairable so they gave me a new phone.

I gave them back the rental, got my $50 back, and went home with a new phone. Very good experience, and so far it was my only claim.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] cntchds:
Glad all of you had such a good experience and that it was just me who had it rough. For those of you who got the Phone Freedom offer, did you receive a confirmation email at the time you signed up, and did you sign up online or in a store?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Marty:
I used my Phone Freedom offer back in November. I did receive a confirmation email and the signup was done online.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] HotInEER:
They screwed me out of mine also because they claimed I used the wrong area code when I registered. I *****ed but to know avail, I'm going to call corporate on Monday.

Even if by some chance I did , they should honor it. I love the phone also.

To the other posters I bought my insurance for $90 from SquareTrade. It typically costs about about $40 more but I get coupons all the time for being a customer. It covers all defects and drops and spills.

Only have a $100 deductible but that's ok.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] HuDuVuDu:
The did not find my freedom $50 either. They called someone and they emailed me a $50 giftcard. The put the free zagg on (fo free) as we waited. (I'm ready to take it off, as it sucks IMO) then she tried to sell me on a case. I already had a cruzerlite with me. She left the case on the counter. She put my phone and zagg case in on top of it. As she bagged everything she grabbed the case too. It took over an hour to get it all set up but I got the phone and some freebies.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] cntchds:
I ended up calling corporate yesterday, and they were saying I may have signed up in the wrong place... I followed their email in February for the promotion. Anyway, the guy said he was trying to figure something out right before the line was disconnected. Bah. I'll just call back tomorrow. I will say, the customer service people were extremely nice.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Ryno_666:
Bought two from Best Buy had great experience. Only thing was they were unaware of free screensaver's and had to go back.

Posted this Friday.

First at Sprint Store this morning I purchased 3 accessories and got half price (they looked at me weird because I didn't have phones yet). Then at Best Buy I traded one of my htc evo LTE got a hundred dollars for it, the other goes to my daughter. Plus I am sending two htc EVO Design's back for a hundred dollars a piece from the preregister I did with HTC. Also was able to do buy out through Sprint at $150 which is half the price they originally wanted so I upgraded both lines, instead of just one and paying outright price for other. Then to top it all off Best Buy gave me two extra gift cards $50 each to price match Radio Shack preorder (play store gift cards) even though they weren't supposed to!
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] LG710S34LYFE:
I went to Best Buy on Friday to pre-order both the HTC One and a GS4 (not knowing the One came out that day). The pre order process was easy going and the lady that helped my wife and I was very pleasant. We left an about an hour later got a call that the HTC One had arrived and was ready for us to pick it up. I went back to pick it up and after waiting about 10 mins for the other customers to finish was given great service in my opinion. There were no issues with anything and didnt even have an issue with the e-mail promo some of you did. I also got a Zagg HD screen protector and Pt Case for it and love them both. Also very excited to use the warranty on the Zagg. I also did switch over to the Best Buy insurance since I had to replace my GS3 through insurance not to long ago due to a crack and wasn't to happy about the 150 deductible. I have heard good things about Best Buy's insurance so I hope if I use it, it goes well.

So overall my experience was good and will be going back to Best Buy to buy my phone from now on. Also excited to see what i get for the HTC One in two years since they will give me %100 of the worth plus $50. Sorry to hear about some of yours bad luck but hope all goes well again when I pick up my GS4 this Friday.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] youkosnake:
Best buy freaking sucks man. I bought a Zagg and then paid for them to install it. 6 tries later and all seems well. Until I get to the car and realize theres 5 spots because of the fuzzies rubbing off of the cleaning cloth. Oh. Its 7pm and we're closing sir. Please come back tomorrow. Not to mention 3 of the 6 Zaggs they used, they tried to charge me for.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] Nyxagamemnon:
Okay I got in 2 T-Mobile HTC one's and I'll be getting the Dev edition as well on tuesday.

Here's my Initial mini review.

First.

Serial and Batch Info

Both are FA345.

Phone 1. FA345W

Phone 2 .FA345W

April 5 2013 build date.

Issues.

They both have Gaps at the top, but no overhang issues. 1 is worse than the other. There are also small knicks on the top speaker grill near the gaps on 1 of them, Also there is a place where the plastic isn't filling in the gap at all on 1. Both will be sent back to replacement.

Sound.

1.Without beats turned on it's loud it's louder than the galaxy note 2, I can hear it upstairs from the other side of the house., However I did notice some static on 1 of the speakers. The sound is muffled with beats on so I'm using it without it.

Temperature

2. The phone is WARM very very warm, most of the warmth is concentrated in the middle>towards bottom near the usb charging port.

Branding.

3. There is no T-Mobile Branding on the back it's just like the international version.

Capacitive Button bleed.

4.The unit I'm using does not have any capacitive bleed onto the screen from the buttons. The droid DNA had this and many other htc phones but this doesnt I tested this in a dark room viewing all angles settings.

LCD Corner Light bleed.

5.The only bleed i detect is on the top left corner in a tiny section, the rest of the screen does not have any light bleed anywhere it's a huge improvement over the DNA which had alot of bleeding on all sides.

Stereo Sound Observations.

Watching a movie, If someone makes a noise on 1 side of the screen say the right side, and travels to the other side (left) the sound will move with them and come out of the left speaker. So it will start from the right and move to the left.

**Upcoming** Will Post video showing the sound/etc soon and more info.

[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] AllyOmega:
Is it only warm near the USB port while it's charging, or is it always like that?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] Nyxagamemnon:
If your using the phone ( I was on youtube playing video's it's warm like very warm.) It's not only near the USB Port it extends all the way to where the camera area is and it's warmest near the port to middle of the phone and starts to taper off as it reaches the top.

I'll have to test the other devices to see if it's an isolated issue with this one or all of them have the same behavior.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] angel.mariano:
are you sure about the branding, because i went on the tmobile website and it shows a branding in the back , on top of the beats audio logo

I think this is a pretty neat app. The basic premise is you take a photo (presumably of something cool or pretty) and it gets sent to a random person. In return, you get a random person's photo from somewhere in the world. I've gotten photos from Paraguay, Russia, Oman, and all over the States.

There are some annoyances. Primarily among them, (for me) is that they have a touch to focus feature, but then when you click capture IT REFOCUSES. Almost always poorly. I'm sure it'll be smoothed out soon though, the app is only a month or two old.

And I may just have my mind in the gutter, but my first thought was "I'm going to get a lot of pictures of genitalia". Not the case! First of all, there's a nice flagging feature. That I haven't had to use yet! I don't know if there's a screening algorithm, or if they just aggressively block flagged users. Or if smartphone users are just pretty darn classy. Mhm. I like that last one.

Here's a screenshot.
