You can tell these manufacturers do not use a cell phone.

These cases NEVER have a hole for the speaker. With the nexus speaker being so low I can only imagine how those cases will muffle the sound.

I always end up cutting a hole myself, but WHY don't they do that themselves? Would be very easy for them, than we can hear ringtones and music with no problem!
[Nexus One Accessories] djmcnz:
That **** is f*'in beautiful. Thanks for pointing it out!

They also have a Nexus pouch.
[Nexus One Accessories] isjr:
Yeah it is sweet but I gave it away because I use the chrome snap-on case from Case-mate and it would fit anymore now I have to use the pouch that came with the phone which I love anyways. When it comes to the Snap-ons I've bought almost all of them even the new one from Incipio and they are all pure crap except the one from Case-mate I give it a 9/10. Also I submitted a review for that case 5 stars but for some reason they didn't accept it.

There is the original HTC pouch for the Desire. This should work great with the Nexus.

[General Questions and Answers] Marx2:
Hello

I see there are many options to tune Today screen. First there are apps like HomeScreen++ which enhance Today.

And we have Today replacement.

So there are apps delivered with phones by big companies, like TouchFlo3D, Manila, Titanium, Glide etc.

We have some commercial progs: SPB Mobile Shell, Wisbar, Vito Today (or sth like this).

And we have many free apps:

Androkkid, FEWidgets, Infinity, PointUI and many others I don't remember.

All of them have their weaknesses - some have memory leaks, others are memory hog, some are slow, or doesn't have all features, hard to extend, or are simply ugly. But the biggest weakness (for free software) is lack of support.

I think it would be good to make an article comparing all of them.

It's pity that every software have it's own system of widgets incompatible with others. In old good days ;) Today items were standarized, and (while not the prittiest and finger friendly) all were working together, so life were easier.

Now we have 20+ programs - every have titanium clock, every has weather plugin/widget, what I want to say is that all of them has the same functionality, but at the end old good Today screen has more "widgets" than all of them together.

What I'm looking for is something light, easily configurable, finger friendly and not eating my battery.

I see there are many like me. But there is nothing to choose. Most free projects are abandoned, commercial projects are usually very heavy and not easily configurable. Any comment?
[General Questions and Answers] Marx2:
Thanx for moving, I wan't sure which forum to choose
[General Questions and Answers] ElCondor:
What about Titanium that comes standard with WM6.5?

Maybe flash a 6.5 ROM, titanium is very customizable and it's not eating much memory and it's simple. You can also add different 'panels', such as a communication manager, weather, etc.
[General Questions and Answers] Marx2:
I have Titanium. I've installed JMLToday and it slowed down my phone so much that it was useless.

There is not so much plugins for Titanium as you suggest. I see no alternative in Titanium to have all important information at once:

-unread mail, SMS

-unanswered calls

-clock/date

-nearest calendar appointments

Default Titanium configuration put those information on different widgets and i need to tap one by one to check them all.

Ps. Yes, Titanium is beatifull.
[General Questions and Answers] ZaxXx:
I use S2U2 for unread mail/sms, missed calls, time, date and appointments :) best solution for me, so now I have a lot of free space on today to use for more things - apps, weather, wireless monitor, google search and so on :)

Is there anything out there that will let me control S2p with my headphones?

Love having access on the lock screen, dont want to sacrifice the headphone controls tho, as im a cyclist....

Thanks in advance!

I'm running 0.82 and it has no feature in the settings. Only thing that is close is the shake to change song feature but is no use to me as i cycle off road most of the time (otherwise i would have it straped to my bike :D )

Thanks mate, I have also got this working.

I should of been a little more specific.. I was after full functionality,

Nothing worse than bombing it down the track only to have one of my B rate tunes kick in.. In itself can be enough to cause a accident :p

Now i know people will start going on about playlists n things but would rather be able to just skip to what i fancy.

Thanks again tho mate! ;)

Always appreciated! :D

Learned HD2 users and general clever bods. I love this forum and the stuff some of you clever people do, had my HD2 for a few months now and got it tweaked with all sorts from this site. The one complaint is always about the apps/app store/marketplace and I notice there are a few people working on a better solution than Windows own one and I cannot wait until this is up and running as anything would be better than that disaster.

I would really love if some can convert/create an Iphone app I was playing on a friends iphone the other day, its the Air Traffic Controller game http://www.iphonefootprint.com/2009...the-iphone-with-flight-control-from-firemint/

Any help would be great and I would happily "donate".

can someone solve this problem.

I have JoikuSpot app on nokia e71. it is like wifi router on hd2. it worked perfectly untili I tried it on hd2. my hd2 cant find it. my laptop does, other phones do too, but hd2 does not even see it. It sees other wifi networks but this JoikuSpot no.

sorry about my english and thanks
[HD2 General] rp-x1:
Go to:

Settings - Menu - All Settings - Connections - Wifi - Wireless Networks - and then select "All Available" under Networks to Access
[HD2 General] milkobgd:
yes, i have allready done that, and the phone sees thr point and it connect to joiku point but no internet. when i go to opera or weather update it says connection error but at the top of the screen there is icon of connected wifi.

thanks anyway.
[HD2 General] CasualStarlord:
This may sound stupid, but I want to lock the phone so I don't pump the keys in my pocket, doesn't matter which player I use (core, tcpmp, wmp, htc sense) whenever I lock the phone (press hangup so the screen goes black) the music stops cause the media player shuts down

is there anyway to make a program immune from being shut down by the lock function, because it's really annoying... sorry if this is answered somewhere else, I searched and couldn't find what I was looking for.

SOmething I've also noticed is that whilst it is locked I can still adjust the volume (energy rom mar11 2010 cookie monster)

and pressing the hang up key whilst its locked shuts off the music also...

I have a $20 sansa mp3 player that kicks the hd2's arse for music play back... which is really disappointing, I mean I know its not really a dedicated mp3 player,

but its kind of sad that my $1000 smart phone can't play a few mp3's without shuddering to a hault

The very same microsdhc 16gb class 2 card shifted from my hd2 to my sansa c250v2 running rockbox so its the exact same mp3 and wma files that play perfectly on the sansa that are buggering up on the hd2

I have disabled power management on my sd card as a suggestion from another thread as well.

[HD2 General] dameon12:
With normal setup this cant be. At least the player in sense tab plays continuosly even when u turn of the screen.

If you cannot find a solution i could know a workaround. Just use the Nitrogen Player. It has a special button for turning the screen off while the music keeps playing.

But i just tried it in my hd2. The music also keeps playing with my windows media player.

So it is a bit strange it stops in every player on your :eek:device

And to compare your low budget mp3 player with the hd2 is kinda weird.

The sound quality through the headset is great and full of bass AND fully customizable.

Maybe you tweaked your device way too much as there seems to be more than one prob in there (changing volume while locked, ...)
[HD2 General] CasualStarlord:
this looked very promising, installed, soft reset, 3 times, no luck, song still stops, although I did note that it stopped and started a few times and then just gave up, then when I went back into the player after unlocking, there was no sound still but the time for the song was still ticking along.

this happens on 2 other hd2's at my work, and my old hd2 before I returned it for other warranty issues, both with the stock telstra rom and with other cooked roms, exact same problem of the music disappearing when locked..

update S2U2 and S2P work AWESOME and dont wipe out the sound... its kinda uggo and I lose a lot of functionality of the old unlock slider, but now I have flawless music playback, so.... thats good... a shame I can't have both

of course.... just to make a liar out of me.... coreplayer now runs while the phone is locked....um so... something I did either the reg tweak or installing and then removing s2u2 or installing s2p has fixed this issue... coreplayer now plays, whilst the phone is locked with the regular htc sense lock screen after pressing hang up....

so YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY
[HD2 General] Aterlatus:
I hit the windows key and then the lock link at the bottom. Takes a minute for the screen to turn off that way, but better than leaving it on the whole time.

If you press the hangup button to lock it, the phone goes into standby and all apps are suspended.
[HD2 General] kilrah:
You really have a problem with your ROM, some program you use or whatever. Normally the Sense music player, WMP, S2P, PocketPlayer, Kinoma,... all continue to play when hitting the power key. Coreplayer and TCPCM don't, and that gets fixed by the cab I linked above.
[HD2 General] Meiyo:
I can do that with the FM radio , coreplayer and windows media player .

I just lock the phone , but the music keeps playing , even for more than 10 hours ( When I sleep , I keep the headsets on and the music on , and lock the phone put in the case and in the drawer and still can listen to music. )

Edit : Also the sense music works
[HD2 General] ephestione:
doesn't this also disable "cpu sleep" everytime youpress power button making the device drain a lot of battery even during standby? I may be wrong, but that's how I understand the registry setting in that cab
[HD2 General] Tunay:
What the ...!

I can lock my screen by the hang up button? And no, my music does not stop. On stock WWE -Rom. But, I had this issue on my Blackstone :rolleyes:
[HD2 General] kilrah:
You've read my threads enough to know it's the first thing I checked, and I'd have complained instead of saying thanks if I had seen an issue with that :p

From what I understand it will prevent standby as long as the WAV1 interface is in use (i.e sound is playing).
[HD2 General] Meiyo:
I always lock my device using the Hang Up button .. does this effect anything ?
[HD2 General] kilrah:
Nope, it's normal. But with Coreplayer if you do that without the hack above it stops playing music.
[HD2 General] ephestione:
d'oh, it could be useful whenever I want to lock on mortplayer, if I press power button it will also stop playback. Let's try that.

EDIT: So far so good, testing mA suction while playing on standby and while on "normal" standby.

EDIT2: So far NOT so good, locking with power button on mortplaying in playback, once stopped playback, and just now locked the whole phone on the lock screen. Uninstalling :p
[HD2 General] CasualStarlord:
yeah so that cab didn't help core player on my hd2 using the mar11 energy rom and 2.08 radio

but just playing musik with the s2p player, when you hit the hangup key it doesnt actually lock the phone traditionally, it kind of over rides the hangup keys function and just does a screen blank out controlled within s2p, which isn't too bad because the music keeps playing, but yeah, I definitely can't get coreplayer to stay playing with or without this cab installed.

Just a shame s2p doesnt have an equaliser or bass control or any advanced audio functions.
[HD2 General] ijoshv2:
way to go, moron, your little registry crack somehow made all the speakerphone sounds (ringtones, music, notifications) come out of my EARPIECE!

check your crap .cabs before you post them,, thinking you kno what you're doing.

and if this wasn't your creation, pass the massage on to the maker, sorry. =] but seriously guys, be smart. check your registry edits a few times over before telling other people to do it, as a result to someone's stupidity, i now have to reflash the rom, because i have no clue what registry that little POS .cab file edited.

Hei all of you

It seems that the legend has been released to some people, and i was wondering what you guys get out of the battery.

I am currently on a Diamond 2, with 1100 Mha battery, and currently get 1½ day out of this, and i want this to be an improvement. The legend, with 1300Mha, OLED screen and newer cpu, sounds like it will be a lot better, but some review mentions the battery life to be really bad.

I am using my phone for 20 text messages, psuh mail, no phone calls and only visit a few websites on 3G. No bluetooth, wifi or GPS. What can i expect of this?
[Legend General] Luinwethion:
i'm sorry if my English is not good enough,

but i've the HTC legend since Friday, and Saturday i did a simple test, i put the mobile phone to charge Friday night, Saturday about 12:00 pm i disconnected the charger and i've turned the wi-fi, gps,and bluetolth off, only the 3G network was on.

I had also ebuddy running on the background, after 4 hours i didn't touched the phone, and my battery was about the 25%

And the full charge time was almost 2 hours.... i went back to the shop where i bought the phone, they changed my battery and the did a hard reset.

The battery performance is now a little bit better, but it has not the same performance as the iphone 3gs.
[Legend General] salahag:
I think the first time you run your phone it will consume the most power. So it's not the right time to test. I suggest you fully charge and fully consume the battery 2-3 times and then put it for a test.
[Legend General] vegetaleb:
Full capacity of a battery shows up after 2 months.

You will pass from 1 day to 3 days
[Legend General] milbi:
So here is one short statistic after second charging.

14% of energy left in the battery after:

39 hours since last charging

2 hours of display on (35% of energy)

37 hours of phone connected to the cell (36% of energy)

13 minutes of calls (13% of energy)

Phone used for me "as normal" - cca. 10 SMS, 2 hours of mp3 and FM radio, one hour of net surfing, running sync with Gmail and Google Calendar.
[Legend General] beetleman:
Yes, it is period of 1-3 months to get full capacity of the battery, but in first few usage, you can fully charge and discharge battery.

I have a one day of full usage of the phone (wifi always on, twitter, e-mails, calls etc.)
[Legend General] koper1:
Getting better

It's getting slowly better with each charging, second week and I'm on two days. Everyone is using it in a different manner, but my battery improved for about a 70%.
[Legend General] Jarune:
got the legend now for 2 weeks and loving it.

Battery life is good, don't expect to go 2 days intensive use without recharge but no phone with these function have this.

I can easily go with one to two day with occasional wifi, gps use and keep 3g or sync on settled on 1 hour intervals while playing some games using apps etc

Blue tooth i haven;t tried but like any phone the power munchers are wifi, blue tooth gps and 3g.
[Legend General] jakontil:
wifi should save lots of power compared to network operator connection

i use wifi at office, and with extensive usage, i can get about 8 hours straight, that is pretty heavy, the screen barely got to sleep
[Legend General] jmkhenka:
I have tested the battery in plain sleep.

If the device has wifi off and mobile data off (and no sync, ofcourse) i guess it lasts for a week - 10 days. But then you cant use wifi or mobile data.

If you only let it be in stand-by (screen locked and off, no data or wifi or gps or bt) it last quite long, probably close to the stated 300-400 hours in the manual.

In real life that translates to 3-5% battery drain (tested by me for 24h, only sent 2 sms and talked on phone for 2 minutes) per day.

But in normal use, wifi will drain 5-10% battery per hour and 3g/gprs with autosync drains 2-5% per hour depending on net.

No device lasts for more then a day or two if you acctualy use the device.
[Legend General] Steven1145:
I have had my Legend for a week and a half now and the battery life is also getting better with each passing day. I can easily use it for a day and a half with quite a lot of WiFi browsing, and up to 30 or 40 minutes of call time. I'm really loving this phone!

Hi fellow Legenders,

i've had the phone for 4 days now. i am having issues with my battery. I have noted some points that i'll share & hopefully find a resolution for my dismal batt life. I have bluettoh on all the time, but it shows very little drain based on BT alone. Other than that, this phone ROCKS!

After full 8hr charge, the phone lasted approx. 13hrs 38mins before reaching critical level with the following findings:

On 08 April 2010

1.	Voice calls used 50% batt – 36mins 11s call time.

2.	Display on approx. 30% brightness used 21% batt – on for 1hr 10mins 15s

3.	Cell standby on 3G used 16% batt – on for 13hrs 38mins (no signal 1%)

4.	Phone idle used 8% - on for 12hrs 28mins

5.	Bluetooth used 5% - on for 13hrs 28mins

After normal charge till batt 100% (about 3hrs), the phone lasted 15hrs 12mins 41s before reaching critical level

On 9th April 2010

1.	Cell standby on 2G used 50% - on for 15hrs 12mins 41s (no signal 3%)

2.	Display on aprrox 30% brightness used 18% - on for 29mins 35s

3.	Phone idle used 15% batt – on for 14hrs 43mins 5s

4.	Voice calls used 10% batt – on for 4mins 14s

5.	Bluetooth used 7% - on for 15hrs 12mins 41s

Looking forward to better batt life as the days go by.

cheers,

After disable all auto-uptade and 3g its over 1 days.

My hd2 had 1230 mah battery and super big screen and 1ghz processor.It was using %10 with same usage.

I am happy to report that my phone batt life has improved tremendously since my last charge. I installed OS monitor & checked to see what might be hogging the batt, & discovered some program was keeping my CPU running inthe high 70's & above continuously. I killed that program, fully charged my phone till 100%, restarted the phone for good measure, & with BT on permanently, more than an hour of wifi usage, about half an hour of phone calls & about 30 smses, after 24hrs, i still had about 24% batt left.

So it has definitely improved by leaps. Hope that helps others who have similar problems.

Oh sorry i forgot. it was OpenWatch for BT watches. It has a problem currently with HTC Legend & SE MBW-150. It doesn't have the full functionality as yet for some reason. The reason it ran the CPU load up, was because i had turned off my watch by accident & set the program to search & connect to the watch. My folly really.
