Agree [MENTION=5165977]cavaniii[/MENTION] Xperia P has the worst battery life but the good thing is that it is managable. Actually Xperia P has some really awesome hardware features such as HDMI output, Brightest screen (white magic), OTG support etc. but unfortunately the battery is not that powerful. Still I love Xperia P.

Answer to your Q1: Installing Custom ROMs may not significantly affect your battery life, it is the KERNEL that can actually affect your battery life. However Custom ROMs such as the one I have currently installed is light weight, smooth and Some battery optimization option in it. Infact i've noticed some improved life. Oh yes if you remove system apps then probably you may end up with FC errors in some other system apps, (happened with me once). I would recomend to try some custom ROMs, always choose light weight ROMs. Try this http://xdaforums.com/xperia-u/p-development/lt22i-lt22ixperia-z16-2-1-100-t2641646

Answer to your Q2: Your screen takes an averag of 60%, seems ok to me. Except in some scenarios such as where you are not a high-end gamer. Because the percentage of screen is the breakup of your whole battery which is 100%. so if most of the battery is consumed by any game then obviously your screen should be assigned a part of residual percentage, it should be less than 60%. well dont worry about it. The screen takes the most of the battery, try to keep it low as possible.

check if the battery drains during night. (WIFI should be off). IF yes then you have to find those battery suckers and greenify them. IF NO then your phone is old. ( I assume that you sleep during the night :P )
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] cavaniii:
agreed 100% I love Xperia P and I'm taking full advantage of it such as using the HDMI, OTG (flash drive, ps3 controller, mouse and keyboard)

unfortunately I can't flash a custom kernel because bootloader is locked but to be quite honest I'm happy running a clean fresh ics .75 rooted not that much bloatware (greenified them all now)

over night 0 or 1% falls but now that I think about it I'm always playing high-end games (real racing 3, modern combat 4, gta san andreas, nfs mw) I can't expect much battery then

anyways thanks for the quick reply & you just earned a 'thanks'
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] cavaniii:
Sorry to bother you again but a quick question; if you were to play a fairly heavy game how long would your phone go for? (I'm talking continuous from full charge to almost dead 1or2 percentage) I lasted 3.5 to 4hr <-- eye killer of test xD

And what's your screen-on timing on average (I could make my device run for 1week or 2 but it depends if I'm using it or not obviously)

My phone drains battery when I'm browsing and playing games, when it's idle or I'm just looking at images or whatever it barely goes down
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] waqar89:
You have a good battery backup MAN!

And please don't compare your battery backup with others. If you really want to campare then compare with your own results.

Ok for your info, If i play games continuosly then my phone would lasted 3 to 4 hours, but again it depends which game you play.

And same is the case with me, my phone drains batery when i am browsing and playing games when it's idle or I'm just looking at images or whatever it barely goes down.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] waqar89:
which ROM and kernel do you use?

Possibly some thirdparty apps may cause reboot.

The increased percentage of battery after reboot is not actual %, you might have noticed that the increased percentage drains faster.

The changed percentage after reboot is possibly due to some changes in the battery stats calculation (during approximation of remaining battery). It happens with me also. But as I said in the first post that my battery remains same overnight, but in this case when battery goes up after restart then my battery drains overnight to its actual level. So don't worry about it.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] bebiblu:
stock .100 kernel and rom

used greenify and battery doctor to make sure it's not apps related

reboot under intensive gpu use, such as games and youtubes

but random, at other times i can game all the way to 1%

full charge and thru 6 hours sleep, i'll be left with 50-60% battery
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] cavaniii:
It's totally normal but I personally would recommend using ICS .75 because for me it saves alot of juice! And as for battery doctor it's a piece of crap especially the task killer I have used it but it didn't make a difference

This is what I would do in your situation

1) downgrade to ICS

2) root it

3) use a Battery Calibration app from play store

4) download greenify

5) try not to bloat your system

Your not the only one with battery problems in XP and its normal and expected...for example I also have an;

Xperia X8 which you know is a crap device (3.2" display, 168mb ram, 600mhz, adreno 200) BATTERY 1200 mAh

Xperia P (4" display, 1gb ram, 1ghz dual core, Mali 400) BATTERY 1305 mAh

Which shows us Sony's stupidity, I'm gonna now stop worrying about battery and just use the phone as is when needed charge etc

Thanks for this!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] waqar89:
Haha. Well said, stop worrying about battery and use as is when needed charge

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _Kyros_:
Hey everyone, I was wondering if someone could help me out with a little problem I'm having. I purchased Poweramp Pro a while ago because of all its EQ features but recently discovered Noozxoide EIZO-rewire PRO and loved the way it sounds with Play Music, problem is Play doesn't compare to Poweramp but I can't get Noozxoide to work with it. I tried other EQs like Equalizer and they work fine, just not Noozxoide. I keep reading around different forums about how great they sound together, but no one is explaining how they got both to work. I've already turned on and off options that are supposed to make 3rd party EQs work, but nothing. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
first hide IMEI and SN from your OP. Refer to nkk71's guide linked in my signature to return stock. To s-off your device with rumrunner you'll need a rom in your phone. So you should try arhd. adb push it to /sdcard/ and flash from latest twrp recovery. then try again to s-off and follow the guide.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fanjo33:
Done,

I forgot to do it, thanks

Edit : i've already try to install arhd but i got an error message

>>>setting permissions

I'm going to try with your link

Edit 2 : i has read already this guide but it's said that you need to be s-off

i'm going to try, who knows

Edit 3 : i confirm that don't work because i'm not s-off

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
Yes, you'll need to have a functioning ROM on your phone for http://rumrunner.us/ or http://firewater-soff.com/ to work.

What recovery and version are you using to install which ROM? (please do not say latest!!! give me a version number, all of it, not just 2.6 or something)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fanjo33:
HI,

So i try with twrp 2.6.0.1, CWR 6.0.3.4 and 6.0.4.5

Soon to your post i test with twrp 2.6.3.3 for m7 and it work, i install succesfully ARHD 51 rom

Now i'm going to try to s-off again

Thanks a lot :good::good:

Edit : i try again and adb don't work and device isn't find.

I disable fastboot and check usb debugging why is don't working :crying:
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
how about some basic info,

* what OS are you using,

* what kind of USB ports

* and you went from latest "twrp 2.6.0.1" to latest "twrp 2.6.3.3" :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

* adb devices working?

* adb shell working -> gives you normal prompt ($) or su prompt (#)

* fastboot devices working?

* you are able to adb push but not "i try again and adb don't work and device isn't find" (where? in bootloader, recovery, or ROM)?

* no copy/paste of command prompt or terminal?

the less information you give, the less help you're gonna get :eek:

you've already posted a getvar all:

(bootloader) version-bootloader: 1.56.0000
(bootloader) version-main: 4.19.401.8
(bootloader) version-misc: PVT SHIP S-ON

Hello nkk71 :highfive:

I tried with seven 64bits on 2 pc, vista 32 bits and xp on my laptop (multiboot) and never my device is find by "adb devices" command

No i never say that twrp 2.6.0.1 was the last but intsalled via "HTC One All-In-One Toolkit by Hasoon2000's ;)

* adb devices and shell don't work in fastbook, but find recovery when in it an adb find device when OS (ARHD 51) is running.

- adb shell give me that in OS : root@m7:/ #

- fastboot devices : [Serial] fastboot

It was in recovery, it never worked in bootloader with error:adb device not found

[Asus Transformer TF701] IcePee:
Ello,

This is my first post! :D

I've just bought a Asus TF701t and I want to install CROMi-X. I've already done a Nandbackup using CWM booted from fastboot so I still have the stock recovery. However I hear that this tablet allows for a much lower level of backup using APX. Before I do any further changes to this tablet I would like to backup the boot loader.

Is this possible? All the tutorials are for older Transformers.

I'm currently on 10.26.1.18 bootloader with Stock rom.

Thanks...
[Asus Transformer TF701] IcePee:
Read the FAQ

Ooops, I just read: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2554744. Doh! Newbie mistake.

[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
It took a very long time to get nvflash working on Android 4.2.1 on the TF201, TF300 and TF700. As we have fewer devs working on the TF701 I would say you have zero chance of seeing anything insode the next 6 months.

As long as you follow the guides it is hard to brick. If unsure ask first ;) And NEVER wipe from the BOOTLOADER. EVER.
[Asus Transformer TF701] IcePee:
OK, going for it

Thanks for getting back to me this quickly.

OK, I'm going for it! I've already done a wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache partition. Let's see where we get to...
[Asus Transformer TF701] IcePee:
Result!

Just to let you know I've successfully installed the CROMi-X firmware. It went very smoothly once I could get it going. I kept having problems installing from the keyboard dock's SDCard reader. It kept failing the initial checksum process. I switched to a higher capacity MicroSD in the internal reader and it went on without a hitch.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Qualme1:
I installed the following Rom [ROM] CyanogenMod 11.0 | Android 4.4.2 KitKat [UNOFFICIAL] [Jan-15]+[NIGHTLIES]. When I first installed I could not sync gmail or my exchange account. Someone suggested turning off auto sync rebooting then manually syncing, and finally turning auto sync back on.

This worked for me until I rebooted my phone and now nothing will sync. Gmail, contacts, calendar, exchange, nothing. If you try to manually sync the logo doesnt even spin.

I have tried everything I could find online. Deleting the account and readding, clearing data and cache and readding. Nothing works.

Does anyone have any other ideas?

Thanks
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rignfool:
Did you do a full wipe before installing?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Qualme1:
Yes, I did a factory wipe from TWRP recovery before installing. I used the latest gapps from PA for android 4.4. Should I be using an older version? the rom date is 1-15-2014, there is a PA-gapps dated 1-11-2014.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rignfool:
Did you turn sync on in account settings?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Qualme1:
Yes, under data and checked off in the account settings.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rignfool:
Try BaNKS gapps then
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Qualme1:
thanks for the help.

I tried the older PA gapps and the BaNKS gapps and the same issue. Syncs the first time, then after a reboot it no longer syncs
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rignfool:
Well the only other thing I can suggest is disable syncing app data... Maybe you have some left over BS from a previous flash that is causing problems

Do you mean the backup and restore. I tried that too and no luck.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rignfool:
No... App data in the account sync section

Any progress on this? I have the same problem. Have tried many gapps and roms and I can't get gapps to sync.

I wonder if there is something else that can block he gapps syncing. Only way I can get mine to work is to restore back to a non-custom rom.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] projectisaac:
I recall having an issue with syncing months ago, but it has never popped up for me again. I am now curious if you can see your internal storage when you go to settings->storage.

One other thing to try is going to settings-apps-all and manually clearing the cache of calendar, calendar storage, and anything else you would want to sync.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] tompdillon:
I am pretty sure I had internal storage.

Also have tried most everything but will load a Rom again and double check.

Do you remember how you got yours going?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] tompdillon:
So I retried with latest nightly and internal storage is fine. Also cleaned all data I could and can not get the darn thing to sync any data.

This is the craziest thing. As soon as I restore back to the Verizon ROM all is good.

I wanted to let everyone know that these headphones, although they seem to support some sort of A2DP (Can talk to them from a laptop supporting A2DP), they will not talk to windows Mobile 5 with A2DP. I have the Cingular 8125 (aka HTC Wizard), with the A2DP additions loaded on it and the 2.17 firmware. I have my wizard talking A2DP to Motorola headphones, and to a Scosche A2DP car receiver. They both work great, and even though the wizard will see the creative headphones (I have 2 of them, so I know it's not 1 defective set), and will see the "Wireless Stereo", when I try and connect the wireless stereo, I don't get the Headphones with the note icon like I do with the other A2DP devices.

FYI for anyone else considering the Creative CB2530
[General Accessories] lmjabreu:
I can use them with my Trinity, but it was a little tricky.

The problem was with the Microsoft Bluetooth Stack, it tries to establish a secure connection when it is not required. Worked fine with my laptop(widcomm) and previous pocket pc(iPAQ H6365-widcomm) but the latter was unusable due to the lack of bandwidth.

I'm not sure if this is really the solution

but I believe you must add the CB2530 without entering a password first, the headphones will try to connect right after confirmation of the services we want to use(wireless stereo in this case),

"the device cb2530 is trying to connect... yes/no" - something like that

the pocket pc will request for a pin, enter 0000 and wait, the phones will disappear from the paired devices list, try again, this time insert the pin 0000 right after selecting the CB2530 from the found devices list and voilà, an A2DP connection will be established.

It's a little weird tough, the system sounds sound choppy, even with jointstereo off and increased bitpool(512 lol), PocketPlayer doesn't stream the audio through A2DP, and media player does it right and the sound quality is nice(only a few other skips but overall pretty nice and the original transmitter wasn't perfect either), but maybe because of the load of audio conversion on the CPU the whole UI gets sluggish, odd.(or maybe it's the bitpool value I used)

It works.
