[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Brookbond:
The radio is currently 2.15.50.14, that should be OK yes??

Do you think it could be related to the format of the SD card? Currently FAT32, Allocation Unit Size 32 kilobytes

I might try doing the whole thing over again from a clean backup.....

I thought it was a bit odd having to move things to SD when I was running from SD in the first place, but doing it did free up the internal memory I had available using the current restriction.

If you have any further thoughts, I would be interested and I will check out the links.

UPDATE:

Well it looks like TopoResize has done the job. Using TopoResize I modified the DATA.IMG from my backup (stored on the pc) and upped its size to 1,917,912K (That was the nearest the software would go to 2GB without going over) and I am sure that would be more than enough for me. I then copied the modified file over to the SD card in my HD2 and booted it into Android. The phone booted successfully and is now reporting 1.36GB free internal storage, (It used to report around 75Mb :)). This seems to suggest the job has been successful.

I think I just read that Android can only support up to a 2GB DATA.IMG file, is that correct?

I will now have to get the system to see all my apps by restoring a full backup and then I will have to copy the DATA.IMG back into the working system and move all the apps back to internal....

It looks like I am in business :)

I will report back once more when I have done the complete job (I will have to do this later because I have other things to do today). Can I thank you once again for your help and advice, as without your initial comment, I had never thought I would be able to increase the size of DATA.IMG and allow me to leave everything in internal memory. I had no idea! THANK YOU!

If you have any other tips about the HD2 running android the way I do, I would be interested to hear them.

Many thanks

Tony
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Marvlesz:
Great that you got it all sorted out. I don't know about the 2GB thing, the last time I used an SD rom was ... I don't even remember .. maybe the early builds where we had that speed glitch or something, but it could be true. But why bother? I doubt you will ever fill that 2GB (Unless you go about downloading each and every app in the store :P )

If you need any further help, just post it. You're welcome, I'm glad I could help. :)

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ButtSwag:
So one of the newer features of facebook it's the ability to save photos instead of screenshotting them. Useful for funny pictures etc.

The photos save in a folder named "facebook" inside the DCIM folder, except in the gallery app the photos are in the camera shots album.

It's not a big deal, but I get pretty ocd about how things are organised in my phone, and pictures I take mixed with facebook photos is a big no no.

Is there a way to change this so that appears in it's own album?

If it helps, I installed the vanilla 4.2 gallery (with the photsphere capabilities) app and the pictures saved in facebook are in desperate albums from my photos, but I prefer to use the default app.

Next to every # is the explanation of the tweak. The next line is what you actually cut and paste into build.prop. For instance:

# Raise JPG quality to 100%

ro.media.enc.jpeg.quality=100

ro.mediatek.gemini_support=true

raises your pic quality to 100% and so forth. The code you put into build.prop starts at ro and ends after true. Hope that helps, and always do a back up before playing around with build.prop! Enjoy

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] pham818:
I'm moderately using the nexus and only getting 5ish hours of screen time with brightness halfway. And people been saying that they get 7+ hours.

If you happen to be one of those people, did you calibrated yours? And how do you do it? I heard you have to drain the battery and then charge it back up. Does it work? Or is it just a myth?
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Richieboy67:
They are many variables involved here beyond screen brightness. You are not going to hard core game for 7 hours out do anything that has CPU/GPU running high.

I keep my brightness set to auto.. Half way seems way to bright to get any decent battery life.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] yuyuyuyu1:
I get about the same battery life on 50% brightness
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] tweaked:
About 6 hours of use. If I let it sit I get a day of standby.

Games, Internet, and netflix kill the life for me.

Last week I took it to work and forgot my plug. I watched Netflix on the battery for about 4 and a half hours. It was at 8% when I left.

Avg of 6 seems the norm. /shrug
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] turdbogls:
That seems about right actually at 50% brightness. I keep mine on auto but it is usually at about 10-15% brightness and I can get 6 hours all day long over a bay or two of the charger
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] pham818:
I barely game on mine.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Xendhaius:
From initial setup (battery came at 62%) I let it completely die and then proceeded to do an initial battery charge cycle (charged it for 6 hours). After which I put it on the charger at about 14% which is normally right as I go to bed for regular charge cycles.

As for my battery life, I get an average 8 hours screen time while doing heavy gaming, watching Netflix/Youtube, listening to music, reading, and lastly browsing the web. As for standby time 3 days on battery on average (with Wi-Fi off during Sleep and always scan for Wi-Fi off).

This is with auto-brightness as I've found zero need to adjust it save for a few occasions I had to raise it for a few minutes while outdoors. If you want great battery life, leave the Nexus to it's own devices It knows how to handle it's brightness; very well I might add.

Granted your mileage my vary drastically as my Nexus 7 was flawless when purchased with zero of the known issues. (It also brought me to this lovely forum. :D )

About 10Hours of battery life.

Get about ten hours of battery life. I have brightness set to half. The real part that was saving me battery is the advanced wifi settings. I set it so that it never searches or keeps wifi on when sleeping. Also manually turn off wifi when I don't have coverage. I use alot of YouTube, internet and Netflix.

Hey guys!

My phone will charge battery only sometimes. The PC usb is not charging the battery (but it does see the usb), my ac is not charging also. I bought a new one. not charging. I tried with 3 different batteries - not charging.

It only charge sometimes when im using the galaxy s2 mini charger. But then it charge ex to 50% or 80% and it stops. I get the charging animation but the battery power drops normally like if i were using the phone.

I opened my 9000 and tried to see if the usb charger is burned or the soldering is bad. But everything is all right :/

By mistake, when i was "rebuilding my phone" i put the simcard backwards. And then even with the mini2 charger i was unable to charge more than 1%.

Do you know what can cause it? Its not the custom rom (helly bean) because i did not update it when it happened a month or so.

Hi. I bought a t-mobile Samsung galaxy S2 yesterday and the guy I bought it from has Jedi mind tricks rom on it. I downloaded the diablo 3 live wallpaper and every time I go to open it after downloading and installing, it won't open. So I thought it was the app and tried another live wallpaper and that didn't open. I tried 5 different live wallpapers and none of them work on my phone. So i'm assuming it's something with the Rom he put on my phone. regular wallpapers work, just not live wallpapers. I would really like to get this working, cause I love live wallpapers especially the Diablo 3 one. Can someone please help with this issue step by step, I am just learning about cell phones now since I got this, but I am a complete NOOB atm. also... is there a link someone can provide on learning how to use Jedi mind tricks? thanks a lot!

That's because its not included in the ROM by default. It can be found in the Goody Bag.

A good way to solve most ROM related issues is to:

1. Search in the ROM's discussion thread (like I did just now)

2. Ask in the ROM's discussion thread

3. PM the dev of the ROM once and wait for an answer.

Hey all, first time user here!

Alright, so I've searched high and low for this question but can't find a decent answer.

What I want to do is to enable dual panel with PA Hybrid. Is there a way to do it? I've tried to change my DPI and change to Phablet and Tablet but I can't find a way to enable it. I've seen a lot of people using it but I can't really do anything to get it. Compared to other phones, I don't have the option to enable it under General UI. I don't really know if it has something to do with my version (using the latest) but I haven't seen anything in the changelog that they have changed it or removed it.

Help would be really appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hopper8:
When you say "using the latest"... are you on the Milestone build? That's the last stable build. The dual panel for settings and PAC settings only came with nightlies after that build. They're 4.3 builds, and not officially stable yet (alpha build). In saying that, I've been using PAC 4.3 nightlies for a week or so now as a daily driver, with nothing to cause me to go back to 4.2.2.

Although, I'm not sure you can use dual-panel settings with hybrid (happy to be corrected, I don't use the hybrid settings a whole lot). I know that running the settings app as 240dpi, 360p and standard phone settings (vs phablet/tablet) should let you use the 2 panel settings on the latest nightlies.
