Ok...I wish I would have seen this post before I adjusted the setting because now I have no ringer.

I went back and edited the setting to the correct #s and now I'm back up and running.

Let me see what I can do based on the info you wrote above. Thanks for the help. This is going to bless alot of people who are looking for this data. You are a pioneer Jam! Thanks

Just one question though...when you say music was too loud, were you talking about the music while you're on a call like lets say you call someone and you're on hold listening to hold music or are you referring to listening to music through the speaker phone's speaker?
[HTC Excalibur] tiguy99:
Jamwong you are the man! Thanks so much. I'm going to try a few of these myself right now and see how things turn out.
[HTC Excalibur] jamwong:
Just a word of warning to anyone doing this..

When I adjusted EAC_GAIN_EMBEDDED to 80 the whole phone did not seem to have any sounds at all. I changed to 79 and it works but once you hit 80 it'll be like it treats it as 00.

I don't really understand why 80 is a magical number that kills things.
[HTC Excalibur] snudel:
i just want the earpiece louder. just slightly. which one would it be now?

the loudspeaker on the back and all this doesnt matter to me.
[HTC Excalibur] tiguy99:
Jam, I'm thinking the 80 # is the HTC threshold that won't allow the system to break the speaker with. Its already loud with just a few bumps to the audio setting. This is a great find though. I even synched up my Jabra JX-10 ear piece to the phone and now it's much louder and clearer vs when I would use it with the motorola Q. I'm greatful for that as well. If you don't mind, I'm going to post a link to this thread over at Howardforums for the guys there who have been looking for an audio solution for a while now. (Giving you credit of course)

Follow this post here for that part. Personally I believe its the bolded parts below that make a difference.

Just be very careful as you adjust these settings. We don't take responsibility for anything that happens to your phone so modify at your own risk. Keep us posted with what you find. I'm thoroughly enjoying my Dash now. The sound was the only gripe that got me when I switched over from my Moto Q. With that phone, the call quality got me right away. I was amazed at how nice, clear and loud the internal speaker was stock vs when I first started making calls with the Dash at stock settings.

With these sound adjustments, I'm beginning to love the Dash more and more each day as it proves its just as good if not better than my old Moto Q.
[HTC Excalibur] jamwong:
I like the Dash but the stupid Joggr is a pain. If we could only adjust the in-call volume using the D pad.
[HTC Excalibur] tiguy99:
You know what...with the whole key mapping feature here it won't be long before we figure it out. I'm surprised no one's tried any of this and its been a year since the phone's been out.

I guess we're the brave souls who don't want to conform and are willing to affect change by any means necessary???? lol
[HTC Excalibur] rizoh66:
Is there a way to enable the joggr for scrolling only and not use it for the volume? Im tired of the volume always getting turned down when im on a call. but I like the scroller.
[HTC Excalibur] gospeed.racergo:
+1:D You would think a "Smart"phone would give you more options without editing the registry:rolleyes:
[HTC Excalibur] Clymmer:
Joggr: solutions abound

There's tons of threads about fixing the jogbar. Just google it. The SetJogBar app from here: http://mobile.surrealnetworks.com/DashApps.htm and that'll get you most of the way towards a fix.

There are easy registry entries to shut off the sound (that swishing sound drove me nuts) and a few other things to eliminate annoyances.

Back to the original topic...I made some of these suggested changes and it's made a huge difference. I've been attending a user group conference in Atlanta and even in this noisy environment (hundreds of people milling about and almost yelling in a conference center) and I can hear through my earpiece amazingly well. I used to have to plug my other ear to block out the ambient noise, but now it's so cranking loud, I don't have to do that.

Very cool!

C.
[HTC Excalibur] tiguy99:
Thanks to this thread many people won't have to worry about this problem on their Dash any longer Mr. C! We should make it a sticky. Its a requirement. I now love my Dash whereas I was reconsidering getting rid of it because it didn't compare to the Motorola Q's sound (stock that is) that I was used to. Thanks to Jamwong and this thread the Dash has jumped up a million notches in my book
[HTC Excalibur] Technology:
The Stereo Music Sounds So Good, So Smooth, Awesome!

Dude, thanks a million for this hack, the stereo music sound so dood, so smooth now on my Dash. I had no ideal the DASH SOUND SYSTEM could be tweaked to this level of sound quality, the sound quality is just awesome. Baby, let the music play on and on.............!
[HTC Excalibur] tiguy99:
No prob! I'm glad we were able to provide a great sound solution for a great mobile device! i'm loving my phone more and more every day. In fact, I'm typing this post from my Dash at the resturant while listening to music which sounds great by the way!
[HTC Excalibur] mofoliar:
after playing with codec and EAC-gain, i was wondering which 1 tweaked the ringtone volume... anyone have the default on the Codec and EAC, so i know where to go from there.. i guess i should wrote those down...
[HTC Excalibur] tiguy99:
Mofoliar, check Jamwong's post on page 1 about halfway down the page are the oem #s
[HTC Excalibur] lubs:
I have a problem relating to sound output that you guys may be familiar with, having figured out these volume regkeys.

With my current Bluetooth headset, my phone rings through the headset rather than the phone speaker. How can I make it ring normally? This wasn't a problem with my previous headset, but is with the current one. It's a pretty major annoyance. Any ideas? :confused:
[HTC Excalibur] tiguy99:
What kind do you have? Try calling your phone with the blue tooth turned off then with it on to see if the ear piece really is the culprit
[HTC Excalibur] A Duck!:
well, I think this will probably be one of my earliest adjustments, after getting more familiar with the phone and then WM6--but, just wanted to make sure, nobody has had any problems with this right?

I am just now learning how to do these registry mods and I am a bit nervous. My first concern is how it impacts my warranty.

and would a hard reset reset original registry settings? I really don't know anything at this point....alot to learn before I make the attempt at WM6 and this one.
[HTC Excalibur] tiguy99:
Duck, modding these settings can effect your warranty especially if damage is caused to your phone or it becomes inoperable due to these changes so be careful when you do any system change with the registry program.

Also, hard resetting back to OEM settings "resets" the phone back to its "first time out of the box" mode to answer your second question by the way
[HTC Excalibur] lubs:
It's a Plantronics Discovery 665. I've played around with it and discovered that if I restart the phone and then connect the bluetooth it rings aloud the first time I call it. Subsequent calls ring through the headset. When the bluetooth is disconnected, it always rings normally. I'm stumped. This was not an issue with the Jabra JX-10.
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Changing registry values "effects" your warranty and damages your device ? Where do you come up with this crap man ?!?

The WORST you can do is make your phone unbootable, or unstable to the point of being unusable. At that point you restore it to factory defaults and you're DONE.
[HTC Excalibur] tiguy99:
Yeah I'm sure if HTC or Tmobile found out you screwed up something in the registry or bricked your phone they'd have no problems replacing it under warranty. In fact since you know everything NRG, why don't you brick your phone, go down to your T mobile store and tell them you were hacking your registry, altered the factory settings, messed up and that's the reason you want a new phone and see how that goes.

I'm just stating the facts. There's a reason why people all over the web leave disclaimers whenever they post system registry changes....In fact if you read your manual, it says alterations to software code and hardware could potentially void your warranty so go troll somewhere else
[HTC Excalibur] tiguy99:
Lubs, I have the JX-10 and it doesn't have any issues either. I'm thinking it may be a compatibility issue between the handset and the bluetooth earpiece. I would love to see if other Dash owners who have the same bluetooth earpiece as you have to say about this issue...How do you like the Plantronics 665 btw?
[HTC Excalibur] sandtoes:
using Mp3 for ringstones

First Off id like to say that this is really great site, lol i've been lookin for a good forum for my htc and i found it using my wifi on my phone lol :) ,anywho is there a way you can use mp3s as ringtones?
[HTC Excalibur] gospeed.racergo:
I am. All I did was place them at the root of the storage card, if I put them in a folder it cant find them.
[HTC Excalibur] sandtoes:
lol wow that was easy kinda sucks tho. but atleast its easy to do
[HTC Excalibur] gospeed.racergo:
I like keeping things organized and this freaks me out..lol...but it seems to work:)
[HTC Excalibur] quiksand:
Ringtones go in the \Application Data\Sounds\ folder.
[HTC Excalibur] gospeed.racergo:
sorry, should have been more clear. I use the root of the memory card because I dont like my sounds clogging up system memory.
[HTC Excalibur] outphase:
You can also put them under /Storage Card/My Documents/ or /Storage Card/My Documents/My Ringtones

[Samsung Galaxy A71 Real Life Review] SquallDNA:
the device charges fast with the super fast charging enabled. like 1 and a half hours average. HOWEVER, several users including me are experiencing charging issue. from 0%, device turned on, charging stops at 90+%. these are based on reports i have read. i personally experienced charge halting at 60%. i charged it overnight. woke up and i'm at 45%. since the battery stopped charging and continued draining the device despite the plug being on. the charge only continues if your unplug the device, and turn the fast charging OFF and then ON again. then reconnecting the phone back to charge. it's not a major issue. but it's kinda annoying. specially when using a newly bought device.. so i rate this 3 stars.
[Samsung Galaxy A71 Real Life Review] jokeyx10:
Charges around 30-40% for 30 minutes when not used. And around 10% for 30 minutes when used for watching youtube videos. Saved me a lot of times when I was in a pinch.
[Samsung Galaxy A71 Real Life Review] DOVahFeyN:
I don't have any issues with charging and I went from 15% to 79% in about 45 minutes (more or less) or so. Pretty happy about it considering this is a 4500 mAh battery!

I know that screen on time varies by user and how you use your phone, but for my usage the SOT has been excellent. When I do a lot of social media (2-3 hours) and YouTube (minimum 3 hours) I can get 7-8 hours on this phone @ 50% brightness (I set my screen to manual brightness). I do a lot of gaming my SOT goes down to 5-6 hours depending on the game I play. I'm pretty happy with the performance and it's a very under rated phone.

[Samsung Galaxy A71 Real Life Review] guitarsmurf2501:
Phone lost 24% overnight. Culprit seems to be Facebook services, which in turn triggered Google services (for GPS location). I've disabled all the FB crap now and I'll see how it goes today...

Update 19/02 - I'm using Swipe Pro for Facebook and since then the battery seems to have settled. Getting really good battery life now with not too much standby drain.
[Samsung Galaxy A71 Real Life Review] h8Aramex:
The 730G is dreadful on my Xiaomi Mi Note 10 - which has an even bigger, ~5200mAh battery. It performs much worse than my OnePlus 7 Pro with 4000mAh. IMO the chipset (730/730G) is NOT power efficient.
[Samsung Galaxy A71 Real Life Review] nyanza:
Likely a device specific problem. Notebookcheck test power consumption in idle, sd 730/g phones are within the same range of comparable mid range SOCs. A71 in particular consumes pretty much the same as Pixel 3a for example (Snapdragon 670), more under load but it's quite a bit more powerful as well, consumes less than Galaxy A51 (Exynos 9611), way less than Huawei P30 lite (Kirin 710) and quite a bit less than Oneplus 7 pro as well for that matter. It uses the same modem as sd 710 and 712 so that's not a problem either.
[Samsung Galaxy A71 Real Life Review] DonAndress:
I have 2-4% standby battery drain. But I checked all apps for background battery usage, I don't use facebook app. The only background apps I use are email, sense flip clock and I use greenify on top of that.

I have about 15% battery drain in flight mode during the night. I feel this is a CATASTROPHY! What is causing this??? Is there a FREE app that can find what app is doing this? If I check in the settings, it says all apps has drained 0% during the night..

[Samsung Galaxy A71 Real Life Review] drchip42:
I have wifi off and Bluetooth for watch, No FB . I get 1 or 2% loss mainly messenger lite , and my games I don't shut down .. with wifi on an average day its about 40% loss . that with wifi always on , games being played, youtube etc ... Since taking of FB I have noticed a huge difference, as before I was loosing 10/20 % at night and 70% in the day ... now I charge once every 2 days, which is not bad ...
[Samsung Galaxy A71 Real Life Review] silent_Eagle:
if U use Facebook Messenger , just remove it and test your phone again

if its not gonna helpful , just check what app drain your battery in setting
[Samsung Galaxy A71 Real Life Review] arecad:
Same problem. Just got mine and lost 25% overnight. AOD is not even on. I disabled Facebook the instant I took it out of the box so it isn't that. Must be another app but not sure which. All the same apps I was using on my previous device and had no issues like this.
[Samsung Galaxy A71 Real Life Review] slugger09:
My battery life is horrible on my A71, I come home from work with 10%, on my P20 Pro which has a smaller battery is 65-70%. I have already used package disabler to disable the crap and its still happening. Going to be returning this phone.
[Samsung Galaxy A71 Real Life Review] Good-doctor:
Standby Drain on A71 Samsung

I have the phone for 1 week now and the battery I can say is performing very poor. Just got it to 100% then after 1 minute suddenly went to 99% and after 5 mins suddenly went to 98% just on standby mode. Can anyone please explain me why this is happening?

My device is always optimized (no background processes running). Every app (even the useful ones) I have put to sleep, which means I'm sacrificing on not getting the notifications when the internet is connected as those those apps are put to sleep but I did it just to put my battery on right track. Still no significant benefit.

Standby drain is the biggest issue I'm facing. Early 2% drops from 100% for no reason at all. At night time, I see at least 3% drop in 4 to 5 hours standby with wifi off and zero brightness and dark mode on and always-on display disabled, battery saving mode on and no app running in the background.

I'm having 1% battery drop every 10 mins for just reading comments on XDA developer or GSMArena with brightness to 0%, no extra app working in background, have put all the apps to sleep when not in use, no multimedia use, always-on display disabled, dark mode on, battery saving mode on. So, when I'm using Chrome, I'm only using Chrome. When I'm watching Youtube videos on app with 20% brightness and 60% volume, I'm having 1% drop every 7 to 8 mins. I see variability between each % drop. Like for example, sometimes it drops 1% at 4 mins interval and after that it will take 8 mins to drop a percent.

I have never been so confused in terms of battery life before. Someone from Samsung should at least come forward and explain to us what is going on.

From the reviews, the new updates doesn't have much to offer in terms of battery life. I haven't gotten the update yet.
[Samsung Galaxy A71 Real Life Review] slugger09:
Had the same issue and no matter what I did couldn’t fix it. I turned this off turned that off, lowered this, reduced that. In the end I gave up and returned it. Shouldn’t be that much of an effort but then it always seems to be with Samsung. Huawei for example it’s just ready to go and works flawlessly out of the box. For a phone that had 4500mah battery it performs nothing like it. I bought the new iPhone SE, it’s battery is tiny 1800mah or something and it lasts longer than the A71.
[Samsung Galaxy A71 Real Life Review] JGS777:
47% overnight, with no use. It's my second A71. The first, the battery seemed normal. But I did not observe this detail carefully. I changed it the first time due to the infamous discoloration defect of the screen on a gray background with low brightness. Now the second, in addition to the same discoloration defect of the screen, the battery does not last! I went to sleep, the battery at 47%. Wifi off. Mobile data off. GPS off. Bluetooth turned off. Vibration off. Always on Display off. NFC Off. Sim card removed. Only Whatsapp running in the background. All other apps have been configured to be suspended in the background. Approximately 8 hours later, without any use, the battery has zeroed. I have a Samsung Galaxy A7 2017, which has 3 years of use and a 3600MAh battery worn by hundreds of charge cycles, and yet its battery is WELL better than the Galaxy A71, which has 4500MAh and a few days of use. If a new cell phone discharges at this rate, imagine after about 2 years of use. You will need to recharge every hour. Turning the adaptive battery on or off for me made no difference. During normal use, it discharges quickly, but the problem is much more evident at night, when the device is not in use. It seems to drain as much energy in idle mode as in normal use.

The quality of Samsung's products is dropping every day. 3 years ago, you could buy an intermediary made of metal and glass. Protection IP68, OIS and Gorilla Glass 4. Today, the devices that cost almost the same as the high end, are all made of plastic. Without IP68. Gorilla Glass 3 (obsolete technology from 2013), without OIS, and batteries that although bigger, last less. Quality decreases and price increases. It is unfortunate.
[Samsung Galaxy A71 Real Life Review] DOVahFeyN:
I have the 730G 8GB ram variant on my A71 (This is the standard in the PH) and my phone lasts for 2 days with social media and youtube usage. OST is between 6-7 hours so no issues with the chip itself, the phone software is probably not optimized properly with the Mi Note 10.
[Samsung Galaxy A71 Real Life Review] h8Aramex:
So what's happening to the other people in this thread? Is it a case of just too many bad apples (bad/broken devices) or... ? :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy A71 Real Life Review] DOVahFeyN:
I think we need to put things into context first. None of them talked about what apps they had running, what settings they used, etc. Also, the other dude talked about the Huawei when that phone is known to aggressively kill apps very quickly in the background to save battery as a default. You can also do that with Sammy's but you need to activate it first.

As for my phone, it's set on its default out of the box-setting which is optimized if that at all matters.

---------- Post added at 01:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:36 PM ----------

I think we also need to look at which carriers are having issues. I have an open line international variant and I've had none of the issues in this thread.

---------- Post added at 01:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:39 PM ----------

If you can find an open line (not tied to any carrier) international variant, it doesn't have any issues.
[Samsung Galaxy A71 Real Life Review] Devilmonkey27:
Mine was a bit power hungry at first 6 months ago

Now that i shut off and tried to kill all processes but active ones my battery is AMAZING!

So to compare I read your post last night at around 11 ish to midnight topped off the phone to 94%, and it dropped to 93% just before i went to sleep

killed all the processes with built in battery device care and also greenify.

woke up today at 8:30am and the batter was at 90% and dropped to 89% after a min of use.

So 3-4% over eight or nine hours.... I"m pretty happy with that.

Hallo guys, and sorry for my bad english. I have a great problem with radio.

Many thanks!
