[Touch HD General] dazza9075:
the 1340 refers to the maximum amount of power available on one charge, in this case its the same as the touch pro, doesnt matter what type of battery it is, (although admitidly some batteries are designed for high current, some for low current high duration)

anyhow, the average current draw is specified by HTC, so yes software tweaks can helps this but its important to note that it wont be an average if you do, as features will be disabled or reduced in performance.

its also important to not that those stame tweaks that have helped the Pro would be the same tweaks used on teh HD since its essentially the same phone, but applying the tweaks to BOTH phones will still give you a significant difference against the HD, and that difference will be for the most part the increase in power consumption needed to power a 30% larger screen.

The only way the HD can be better than the Pro or equal at the very least is if it has a bigger battery
[Touch HD General] donbronzi:
Hmmm i'm not sure if you guys are missing the point. sure the display takes a good bit of power but its the processor thats the juicy bit. HTC have said that they have spent a fair amount of time tweaking the processor in the HD to make it more efficient. Sure its the same processor as the touch pro but different firmware software etc. Only time wil tell but its unlikely they're going to ruin a superb device by using underspec componants.
[Touch HD General] dazza9075:
if they have changed the CPU then you maybe right, there is nothing to have stopped them i suppose, but i would still imagin that the back light is the most significant power drawing function bar some wireless connections that is.
[Touch HD General] Raziel1:
you are right, but on the other hand we don't know what changes have been made on the software. Like Touchflow3d beeing much faster than before, even if its the same specs. You cand take a 900 battery and it cann run longer than a 1340 battery if you do it right with the software. Ofcourse, we can compare the HD to the Diamond or the touch pro, as they have got the same OS and the same Interface. But tweaks in this siystem can reduce the power consumption allot, and i am not talking about thos tweak we, as users can do. The easiest way to find out will be to compare the standby times for example. when the display is off. Or when tweaks to the chips are made which enhace the battery life when connected to UMTS or other things. (such tweaks happpend to many phones, and sometimes meant an increase of around 50-60 percent of battery life!!) Its true that a bigger screen normaly means hiigher power consumption, but most of the power drained comes from the backlight. And even here you can do much.

I hope the things reviewers and testers said so far were right. like the backlight surprisingly using just a glimps of power and the good battery life. they also stated that HTC made improvements to their chipset and thats one of the reasons why its faster and even runs longer with UMTS than with GSM

Could be that its not, but i hope for the best.

ps: on the other hand, i have got an Lg Viewty here. It is a phone, which is said to have a pretty bad battery life, lasting for less than two days with normal usage, and less with heavy one. Strangely i get a battery life of around a week on normal usage and 3 days with heavy use. (normal means: checking mails at least 2 -3 times a day with HSDPA, doing quick surfing on the net and writing around 5 sms a day and answering call and so on..)

Hi

I have an (external) Stereo Mic and sadly 98% of all Input Device are just Mono. I found the "Rode" who cost 80€ who is way to much for just an (generic) Audio Chipset since the "quality" one cost way down there....

So can someone recommend an Stereo Input Device with USB-C for Mobile Filming to record the Stereo Sound with my Android Phone?

Thank

[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] Lingshan:
Hi

I tried to update my poco x3 nfc from 12.0.4 android 10 to 12.5.4 android 11 using a recovery rom file and got the "can't verify update, can't flash this stable rom " error message so i updated the phone online to the next version that it was showing at the time which was 12.0.9 android 10, but even after update to the new version i still got the same error for the recovery rom and i tried a different build and got the same error as well and on top of that updater apps says there is no updates available.

I already tried the latest version of updater app which is 7.6.3 and tried different vpns and still getting the same error.

How can i solve this without the need to unlock bootloader?

Also for some reason system app updater doesn't work and can't download anything and i tried this on my friends phone, also same problem. Does anyone have this problem ?

Thanks in advance
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] Alrich:
Please search forum threads because this has already been answered countless times. The only solution is to take it to a service center and flash using EDL authorised account or you have to unlock bootloader yourself and flash latest firmware.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] burntbagle198:
So I've got this Lenovo M8 (TB-8705F) and the end goal is to get lineage OS running on it but no matter what I do I can't seem to get it to boot into TWRP. It's my understanding that this device does not have a separate recovery partition so I have to use fastboot to force it to boot from the recovery image temporarily, from there I could permanently change the recovery image or install lineage. Problem is every time I try to boot it with the "fastboot boot recovery.img" command I get "FAILED (Status read failed (too many links))" I've hit a brick wall and just don't know where to go from here, any help would be appreciated.

I've tried different versions of TWRP as well as the lineage recovery with no change in results.

Running Windows 10 and using command prompt.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dabral Abhishek:
Hey @burntbagle198,

I am also trapped in the same loop,

I'm trying to solve this problem by looking at different permutations of solutions.

So in your case, you want to flash lineage OS .. ,

As far as I know, lineage OS is not yet available for tab m8, well if you did find an ISO then SP flash tool might work here.

If you do happen to find some info on that, pls do consider sharing.

Why Xperia hasn't announced carriers in North America?

Blame Apple

This report explains why? Carriers subsidies for high end phones are eating the profits. Expect lin the future lower service rates but higher phone prices

:rolleyes:

And I guess the Blackberry Bold still isn't out for AT&T because they want to sell more iPhones, right?
[XPERIA X1 General] fhsieh:
AT&T can still release the X1 since its hardware keyboard puts it in a different class of high-end handset from the iPhone. A bigger reason for delaying the X1 is because of the impending launch of the Fuze (Touch Pro), which is almost identical to the X1.

No doubt the AT&T is still enjoying its honeymoon with Apple, so it's true the iPhone has driven away a good bit of competition. But I don't think it's quite as gloomy as the Reuters article depicts. It might be a little slow, but everyone is coming back to attack the newlyweds on all fronts:

- Software: Android cutting down virtually all OS development costs/overhead

- Hardware: Moto/LG/HTC/etc making cheaper handsets with more features than the iPhone

- Network: Sprint launching WiMAX to outperform AT&T 3G and possibly at competitive rates

Sadly, it could be a while before it has any noticable effect, at which point the X1 might become old/outdated.

X2/G2/HD2, anyone?

Black I Got To Agree With You On This One

Brother Black, you're off the hook, off the chain dude!{LOL} Black do you recall a PM from me concerning this same subject matter. I believe T-Mobile, HTC and Google got a better chance of coming up with that HTC Touch HD Android G2, than for AT&T to carry the Xperia X1a. The article link in post #1 has nothing to do with AT&T carrying the Xperia X1, but it does have something to do with dollars, cents, profits, loss, gains, stock quotes, and future market analysis of the mobile phone industry is all the article is discussing. AT&T will be selling the RIM BlackBerry Bold 9000 next week, Black you are 1000% correct dude.....!{LOL}:D
[XPERIA X1 General] Pinguino1:
This Reuter article indirectly bring the subject of branded/unbrande phones. All that situation with AT&T and others carriers would never happen if they stop that stupid greed and let anyone own their phone and plug it with whoever offers the best service.

If you can manage to get root rights with a one click root app for example,

you can flash TWRP directly with the TWRP app or with the terminal.

[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Ady1976:
Hi,

First of all I am coming from the OP 8 Pro which has a beautiful screen and whites are whites let me get that out of the way first of all.

The customisation Google allows users to do to OUR screens is ridiculous imo.

No RGB, No wide colour gamut and no white balance adjustment.

Is there anyway to get rid of the awful yellow/green on blacks on these screens without root?

Also is there any way to remove material you or at least allow Black/White in the accent colours? I mean come on Google WTAF were they thinking, I don't want any accent on my screen to be crappy coloured it looks washed out with any of the 4 colours.

Also the Normal/Boosted and Adaptive are all weak imo still nowhere near as nice looking as my OP 8 Pro in Wide colour gamut mode.

I have 1 week before I decide what I am doing with this but right now I look at my OP 8 Pro screen and then my Pixel 6 Pro screen and it looks like total puke.

Sorry have to be honest to die hard Google fans, Since Google started to calibrate warm screens since the Pixel 4 XL which I duly sent back also I haven't had a Pixel since then until now and they still are not listening to their customers it seems.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] vPro97:
Nope there isn't. Some people prefer overblown colors, others prefer a more muted - dare I say - natural looking screen.

I agree that the level of customisation is lacking and I understand your frustrations. But having had many different devices through the years, you'll usually adapt to the difference in color temperature and gamut over time and that'll become your new standard. It is much like sound from speakers - one initially prefers the sound one is accustomed to and over time either grows to love the new sound profile or keep despising it.

Position in Global Ranking #20

You did mention that you have problems with "whites are whites" with your Pixel and not with your OnePlus - maybe you have a defective screen. My P6 Pros display has no problems with whites, yellows or green. Everything fine here.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Ady1976:
I think the colours are probably just about ok at boosted or adaptive what is making them look even more is the materail you and the warm yellow screen calibration, It doesn't help with colours or whites on any screen even TV's.

Me personally like any TV or Monitor or any screen for that matter they should be configurable to any user, the way google sets their phones up is like a stick it or lump it attitude and it really is not winning me over, People would not keep a TV they were not happy with if the picture could not be adjusted and so goes the same for mobile phone screens and to be quite frank Google the last few years or so have gone worse in terms of screen customisation, Even dare I say it Apple (Cough cough) has white balance adjustments, Why for the love of god do Google not add more screen options, I think I may send it back if nothing can be done, If I could have at least selected black/white is accent colours that would have helped a little for the rest of the green puke on blacks but this screen is just not sharp to me, Even the font they use looks unclear compared to my OP 8 Pro, Weird as it sounds as I have never been a OP fan but they have nailed the screens lately and have a ton of customisation options to boot.

I may wait for the OP 10 Pro, Somehow I don't think I can live with a device that you use for hours each day and is the most important factor imo.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Ady1976:
HI,

It's my second P6 Pro I received yesterday and they both look exactly the same, They have been calibrated warm as Google has been doing for a few years now and not having enough configurable display options to allow the user to configure their devcie to their liking, I don't expect miracles but I expect a flagship phone to be adjustable to my needs and likes.

I prefer the cool white look and this is screen is not that, Doesn't look as bad in daylight but in duller darker rooms is looks awful to my eyes, Font is too bold, No black accent colour to get rid off the green puke on blacks because of material you and no white balance adjustment just sucks for a premium device imo.

I will see if I can take a picture both side by side so people can see how white my OP 8 Pro is but sometimes cameras take half assed pics of screens.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] blackhawk:
It's not your imagination. Color rendering on all variable rate displays has suffered. Between the variable refresh rate and adjustable brightness accurate color rendering is a casualty.

I haven't use any of the variable refresh rate displays because of this. There are complaints about all manufacturers/models and the P6 has gotten more than its share.

My color perception is in the top 1% of the population. Someone who is at 80% etc can't even see what I can in color shifts. As you ability to perceive color increases so will your expectations. Poor color rendering in a display is extremely annoying to me.

As far as fixed refresh rate displays go the Note 10+ is still near or at the top of the heap for color rendering. It surpasses all the variable refresh rate displays for color rendering.

However starting with the N20U, the S21U and the Fold 3 with variable rate displays the color rendering index dropped. These displays are extremely hard for the manufacturer to color calibrate even for Samsung who are on the bleeding edge of commercial AMOLED technology.

If the small decrease in color rendering is perceivable depends perhaps of the user but it's definitely measurable. It has dropped on all the variable rate displays currently available.

One reason I'm still happily using 2 yo technology...

[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Ady1976:
Hey funny you should say that because my Sony TV doesn't look that good at 120hz neither, Colours change from 60hz to 120hz.

But my OP 8 Pro is pure white and good colours, All I can think of they calibrated it for the highest resolution which to be honest is what Google should have done.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Ady1976:
Yep it's the reason I sent the 4XL back lol, I'd have thought that many would have complained in the meantime since the last 2 gens and Google would have done something about it, Maybe my eyes are sensitive to screen setup quality or colour or something but I don't rate this screen at all.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Batfink33:
Agree about VRR but my s21U @120 Hz display looks *Much* better than my P6P display. The colour is much more vibrant. The P6P display looks dull and yellow IMHO. I'm very underwhelmed by it
