[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kieranluckman:
I'm wondering if anybody can help me with this!

I have a HTC Desire HD smartphone, I haven't had it long but I've noticed a significant drain in my battery life! I have tried a certain app on the Play Store to Calibrate my Battery but I don't think that's worked very well! I don't want to flash any custom rom's or anything like that I just want help with how to get a good battery life! My battery lasts about 8 hours with not much use, and I've tried battery saver's but they're not much good! I don't think I need to buy a new battery but if I need to then I will but if I can help it then I won't! I know this is off the topic but I have a HTC Buzz: Wildfire too and I rooted and flashed CyanogenMod 7 on it too and the battery life was crap on that but I don't need help with that phone mode it's just the HTC Desire HD I need help with, so yeah can anybody help me with this problem? It would be great if you could!:good: :highfive:

Yours Sincerely,

Kieran James Luckman

Read up on the Better Battery Stats app and figure out if anything is causing wakelocks.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omernaeem17:
Well, if you are on stock rom 2.3.5 then it could be a hardware problem but first try a new battery!!

install a app called "current widget" from playstore

and check how much mAh you are getting, If more than 800+ means charger is Good...

and secondly u can giv a try to custom kernels, there are many out there with a better battery life and battery saving governor like smartass v2 etc :)
[Sprint LG Optimus G] _dannyboy:
Alright guys, I recently purchased and otterbox commuter for my LGOG and honestly, its growing on me. Originally it looked kind of weird, but now that I look at it, I kind of like it. We've all seen an otter box before so no real surprises, its just black lol. The reason I got it was because originally, I was using the LG Bumper and everything was fine until one night, I dropped the phone at work and the case bent a little bit. The phone was still pristine, but the drop kind of put everything into perspective for me. I have insurance through best buy, but still...lol

As far as adding bulk, its not TOO bad, but you definitely notice the added weight (I like it) and its a little harder to use with one hand. I mean, what do you expect? Its an otter box. Its a very tight and secure fit all around and pretty easy to install perfectly. You know how some otterboxes look like the don't fit? Like...the silicone is all bent outta shape? Idk...I can't explain it.

At any rate, I picked mine up new for $23 from eBay and I recommend it to anyone who doesn't want to lose this amazing phone.

Also, I'm gonna spray paint mine because the black on black on black is just too basic for me. I'm thinking about going with a red but I'm not sure. Any recommendations?

[About XDA developers] not-enough-memory:
the lifedrive has 4gb of memory which is great, so why do we keep being fed the same old rubbish of 128mb????????

ok so i can go and buy a 2gb sd card for my xda 11i but that doesnt benefit o2 or the phone manufacturer...........

i would rather pay £50 more for more memory than buy extra cards!!!!

or am i missing something????

archos have 60 80gb systems!!!

im pee'd off with being fed this rubbish of 64mb and 128mb...... this is 2005 for gods sake!!!!

does anyone agree with me????
[About XDA developers] cruisin-thru:
Some processors only support a certain amount of memory and I see systems that will support only 256 megs as external memory. Also you have the problem with "marketing", to look for any logic there would be fruitless unless you apply it to profits. I have been using xda, xda 2, ipaqs etc for a long time. I use all my phones/pda's for navigation but have been very disappointed with memory constraints plus other problems. I have just bought a "dedicated" gps and mp3 player. Its a Mitac 269 and its based on win ce.net 4.2 core. It has an sd slot for added memory but has internal storage ram of 64 meg and an integrated 2.5 gig hard disk. This allows street mapping for whole of UK plus major roads of europe. 500 megs is available for the built in mp3 player also. The best thing is that it isnt as "dedicated" as it appears. I have found a patch that unlocks the system so it can be used as a normal pda and will also use activesync instead of the mitac sync software. This is all contained in a 200 gramm package with a beautiful color screen and numerous shortcut buttons. The lifedrive uses similar technology with its 4 gig hard drive so maybe you wont be waiting much longer for your wishes to come true on other ranges. By the way, because the mio 269 I bought had no accessories I got it for £100, normal price is approx £350.. :shock:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thanhnguyentai:
Hi everyone,

my phone had some errors so that I rooted it and installed rom. But maybe I installed an rom which is not supported to my phone.

During installation time, everything was fine, and when installation was end, I just chose reboot.

But now I cannot turn on it, cannot go to restore or download mode and cannot connect to my computer.

When I plug it to my computer, I get a warning for installing usb driver(QHSUSB_DLOAD) but it is not installed.

I searched so much by google and I got a solution(using jig), but I am not sure about it.

If there is anyone who can help me, please post it here.

Thank you.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Wh1t3Rose:
You flashed a ROM not made for your version of the S3. You need a JTag
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jmxc23:
Umm there is a way to to unbrick is phone WITHOUT jtag. I know because I used it.SD Card Debricking method. The thread creator took the time to use a method created for the Sprint variant of this phone got it to work on our phones. If done right it can take 15 minutes to 1 hour.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thanhnguyentai:
Thank for your help. I will try and will tell you result soon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jmxc23:
Instead of using the sprint debrick file use the Verizon debrick file located in the link I provided.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thanhnguyentai:
I have read the guide you provide and there is a requirement: a 16GB SD (preferably a Class 10). But I have a 8GB sd, class 4.

Can I use this sd or buy another one?

Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jmxc23:
No it has to have the same amount of storage as the internal storage so 16GB microSD cards are a must. The debug files contains the files needed to access both download and recovery mode. Luckily those class 10 sd cards are usually on sale.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctibor:
Isn't it possible to include a new CSC with European languages to the official JB ROM?

I recently flashed the 4.1 JB ROM to my Tab and using English it works well, but I'd like to use it with my native language (Hungarian - Magyar).

I know there is EROBOT ROM with a multilanguage version but it has a lot of modifications I would not need. I am OK with the official firmware, I just wonder how to put my language in it. I am even thinking of extracting only the necessary parts (mainly the system apps) from the Erobot multilanguage version and making a flashable zip from them. Would it be possible? If yes, how? I am curious and ready for some work with the tablet, but not being an expert I would need guidance...

My Tab is rooted, has TWRP recovery and mobile Odin.

Thanks in advance for any suggestion, idea.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctibor:
Thanks, I'll take a look at...
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctibor:
Yes, I know, and I would'nt mind a full reset; actually the CSC app has already been installed onto my Tab.

But the task is far more complicated than just change the CSC. I should change every app in 'System\App' folder to another version which contains the European languages in their 'resources.arsc' part...
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctibor:
Yes, he integrated the European languages (including Hungarian), I opened some apps and checked it.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] beerope:
Wouldnt it be awesome to permanantly set mobile bravia engine to the entire ui? Rather than just in videos? Is there hope for gamma controls on the XZU and would you want to have this feature?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Nuwidol:
Without built in controls these features need to be added in through custom kernels. It tends to be a lot of work to incorporate these features if its not provided at some level too.

Hopefully we'll see it someday (& soon at that) but I wouldn't get my hopes up :(
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] beerope:

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] beerope:

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] beerope:

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] jacktherapper00:
Then get some balls, and give a **** about what others think/say about any electronic device...

Impress them with tech-skills, and not with being as dumb as they are.

Which then leads you to the comfortable situation to enjoy the way more natural display of the XZU, instead of looking for something not better but just more "popular".
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] beerope:
Dont tell me what to do, I prefer a more punchier color tone than a neutral one, an untuned ips screen just makes the device feel low end and cheap. Much like a cheap acer tablet, an untuned screen of a nexus 10 looks like crap and the stock xperia z ultra screen looks muted, compare it with mobile bravia engine on and off, youll see the significance of color enhancement. With an amoled screen it feels vivid and pleasing to the eye, sunsets in movies feel warmer and scenes look much more dramatic. Its not about how close something looks like in real life, its about immersing yourself in a more vivid experience. Amoled and/or ips screen with color enhancement all day.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] unk_damnation:
Well I somehow understand the feeling of "better than real life" sentiment, as I'm not the type to be offended by the oversaturation on amoleds (but if it has color shift, then amoled can kiss my a**).. But not saying that I miss it either.

But overprocessing engines like xreality only works best in certain situation. I notice that xreality gives us somewhat "de-anti-aliased" look that make image sharper but sometimes it gives weird artifact, depending on the texture it's rendering - most of the times they look pretty to me, though. And the colors are tacky, yeahhh.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Nuwidol:
I don't understand the love of of hugely over saturated screens. Why doesn't every manufacturer strive for pure accuracy?

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] T-Keith:
I had to do a complete wipe from the computer and flashed clockwork mod recovery. Since it was likely an old version I had the double 0 partition problem which I fixed by manually moving the files. I tried to update the recovery to twrp, but it won't flash using goomanager. It downloads and says it's flashed but it's not there.

I also seem to have a weird problem where I have to push the power button to get it to boot past the Google screen. If I don't push power it gets stuck there forever.

Any ideas?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SlowCobra96:
Follow the sticky at the top that says flashing a factory ROM using fastboot/return to stock. Start from scratch, get it working, and then flash whatever you want.

Sent from my Nexus 7(2012) that has zero issues.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] T-Keith:
That's what I did, that's why I'm stuck on the old recovery.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] absinthesummer:
This might be an odd question, but have you tried just updating CWM first, and THEN flashing TWRP? Sometimes the flash won't go smoothly with an older version of one recovery to a newer version of a different recovery- not sure why, but that's just been my experience. I would update CWM first then try flashing TWRP.

Also, if goo is not working for you, you could try Rom Manager to update CWM and then flash TWRP. It can flash either. (If you really want to flash via the device).

Otherwise, (me personally) I'd just use adb fastboot to flash a new recovery.

Hope that helps ;)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] T-Keith:
Thanks I will try that.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] absinthesummer:
No problem. Let us know how it works out for you.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] T-Keith:
Tried flashing with fastboot, now it won't boot into recovery, just hangs at the Google logo.

Still needs a bump from the power button to get it to boot normally.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] absinthesummer:
Ahh, that sucks! How are you *attempting to* access recovery... via reboot menu, via adb, or via 3-button press? It shouldn't matter, but you could try all three methods to see if any way will give you recovery access. Then, if/when you manage to get in, you could reflash again straight from recovery. I'm going to do some digging to see if I can find a better solution. I KNOW I've read about the same issue before, I know there's a solution... I just have to find it again.

Worse comes to worse, you might have to reflash stock recovery then reflash custom recovery. Might be a corrupt recovery img, but I will check and try some things out and let you know what I find.

Edited to add:

Yes. there was a bug in the older bootloader that bypassed/refused access to recovery... so since you restored stock, you probably need to update your bootloader to at least to version 4.18 (via fastboot). THEN you should be able to access recovery. I can't add links, but I can give you a text link once I find just the IMG file instead of the full firmware. Honestly, I never do backups so I don't have the file on hand. However, I may do one backup at least so I can extract my boot img and give it to you.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] absinthesummer:
OK, so I found the info I was looking for.

From Elsewhere:

***Or whatever you name the boot img file!***

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/19608328/boot.img.zip --> This is from MY Nexus 7. It's Bootloader version 4.23, and works with JB 4.2.2- it does NOT have the recovery access bug.

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/19608328/recovery.img.zip --> This is a copy of MY CWM, which I just updated to 6.0.3.6 yesterday.

I'd flash the bootloader, then flash your recovery of choice. Not being able to access recovery is a bootloader issue, not a recovery issue. The fact that you restored/reverted an older full firmware put you on an older bootloader that would not allow users to access recovery.

Try the new(er) bootloader, it should work. My device is a 16gb grouper Nexus 7 running 4.2.2. Before that, it ran 4.1.2 without any issues, so it should work to resolve the problem you're having.

This is one of the strangest problems I have ever encountered, so be prepared to be stumped.

I have many android devices, as you can see in my sig. Lately, I have been having problems with pulling files off of all of my devices., Here's what happens.

Say I use mybackup pro. I create a backup of my apps and their data on 9-6-2013. Then I create one on 9-7-2013. If I plug in my device on 9-8-2013, and attempt to copy the 2 backups I made, not all of the files will transfer to my computer.

Guessing that the files are corrupt or something, I deleted them. I create a new backup on 9-8-2013. HOWEVER, when I plug the device back into my computer (doesn't matter which machine), Explorer still shows me the OLD files that I deleted off of the device! It appears that something is caching my device's filesystem but I cannot clear that cache or refresh the device's content list.

This happens with all of my computers and all. of my Android devices. The only similarity is that I am running Windows 7. That's it.

Can someone help me please diffuse this problem?

While I will agree that it's nice to see another phone with almost no bloat, and the Active Notifications feature is actually quite useful for those who have an AMOLED display, I don't really know that these extra features of the Moto X are worth paying more than twice the price of a Nexus 4 for. There is also the fact that the Nexus 4 is almost a year old, so to see another phone that rivals it in the reviewers' opinion isn't too surprising.

While I'm still in the "new phone" phase, I'm hoping my Nexus 4 continues to impress me as much as it does now.
