- turn off 3G

phone screen > ##778 > "000000" > modem settings >

preferred mode- should be on auto as default, switch it to cdma only

menu > commit settings > (auto reboots)

poof 1x only mode!!!

(much slower data speed but much smaller data authentaction overhead - hence less power usage, good for low signal or good signal with fringe 3g coverage)

also be careful what you change in the settings, one of the modes will give you data only and no voice call(+sms) ability

- also "rev A." enable/disable has no reason to be off unless your network engineer so leave it on, turning it off will just limit you to evdo(3g) rev.0 vs allow both rev.A and rev.0

- dont clear your MRU, if you do you will need to hit a native verizon tower to get data to work

- preferred serving system - home/auto A/auto B

B is default and works best in roughly 90% areas, auto A looks at same preferred list but starts in reverse order before goign to none preferred towers, sometimes phones gets confused between two preferred towers and grabs one with lower signal or just switched to much, occasional it might help to tell the phone to start searching for ID's in reverse order, this is little over simplified and prl's contain signal frequencies as well which is more of what a/b switch will look to, but thats the way i like to explain it so tough cookie :P

also if your ambitious and your phone keeps jumping between good 3g signal and tower with poor coverage or data, you could grab the sID's of the tower with good connection and put phone in home only mode and alter the nam settings home sid to match that, also your allowed to enter more than one sid in the settings if you wanted to build a mini prl list of sorts :P

warning:-altering home sid will give roam indicator false info and roaming will still be network side regardless of what miss programed phone shows

also if you put prl files on root of sd card you can also update prl from a file
[Droid Incredible General] Lino.:
Prove the lower power usage.
[Droid Incredible General] Lino.:
Thats pretty good, but good luck with this one.

Coming from a G1 I was not expecting anything better on the battery for this phone, we get a phone like this because of it's features and everyone should know that features like this phone has are going to consume more power.

If battery is a persons problem and they will always complain about it, then they should not have a smartphone.

Also chargers are cheap.

I wander with the same amount of use, 2 identical phones one running 3G the other running slower, what would be the difference and how could this be done, the phone with 3G would be waiting on the other to load a webpage 90% of the time.

Sorry I left T-Mobile because of their lack of 3G service, I'll be dammed if I put my phone back to Edge speeds.
[Droid Incredible General] runkittyrun:
this definitely is not targeted for normal use

this is more for the person that cant make it threw 5 hours with the phone idle the whole time, if you want to start larger amount of data then switch it back and wait 40 seconds?? for reboot

2g will load web pages and email and all other data, except view vcast videos and thats blocked on network side, also voice chat programs like skype would take quality hit do to smaller bandwidth, if you used two phones in active data sessions the 3G would quickly become more efficient as session size and length increased, like you said it would finish loading larger websites and videos while 2g is still broadcasting an active session working on transferring the info, but if you set two phones with same apps on them in same place with one in 1x and other evdo and watched them in standby mode the 1x will have longer battery, now ideally if your going somewhere with low signal it is much easier to turn off all data threw normal menu and will give you even better battery but no emails updates or other data
[Droid Incredible General] lexluthor:
I live in a poor Verizon signal area. Every phone I have ever had gets easy better batt life when set to 1x only so thanks for this tip.

Any easy to automate this with a macro or widget somehow?
[Droid Incredible General] runkittyrun:
thanks, makes my post all worth while :)

would be a sweet widget if you could change the phone mode on the fly dont know enough about the android system to know if its possible, but maybe someone can look at the phone settings and make customized epst program and make widget just for this setting without the programing forcing a reboot, have seen some phone that can change nam programing without reboot but most phone do it automatically so be interesting to see if changed without a reset if it takes effect or not, hmm or even epst mod at commmit to bring up reboot yes/no instead force reboot on commit would work then we know widget should be possible
[Droid Incredible General] jbh00jh:
What it the point in having a top of the line media phone if you are going to cramp it's style by limiting it's functions. If you "need" this top of the line phone you should be able to pony up for an extra batt. The Incredible is a COMPUTER you talk on. Can your laptop last all day with heavy use unplugged ? ? NO.

I plug my phone in at work and in the car. I also keep an extra batt in my briefcase for out of the office emergencies. These are not flip phones that last all day. I have been using media phones since they came out and they have yet to make one that will last all day using all the features like you want to.

Why restrict what the phone can do , when all you need is an extra batt.
[Droid Incredible General] lexluthor:
I hear you on all of that and I fully understand what I have. I just came from a Touch Pro and, I'll tell you, battery was probably good for 14-16 hours if set to 1x and 10 hours on 3G. That a huge difference.

I'm on Wifi both at home and work and use Opera Mini, which works very well on 1x, plus I had a pretty quick way to go from 3G to 1x and back. It didn't limit me *that* much, but sure, there were plenty of times I needed to check something fast, wasn't near wifi and didn't want to use my macro to change to 3G and back. Yes, it's a bit of a pain.

Plus, I barely get a 3G signal in my house anyhow. It's 1x 75% of the time.

Now that I have my incredible, which does even so much more than the Touch Pro, yes, I'd like to keep it to 3G and I have chargers everywhere and an extra battery and might get an external battery charger too.

Still, I'd love to see an app or widget that can quickly set the phone to 1x mode and back.
[Droid Incredible General] jbh00jh:
Why would someone need a backpack to carry a 2oz, battery ?
[Droid Incredible General] Lino.:
The more I read on this tread the more I understand.

That was an option on my G1 to turn off 3G, I never did, I hardly had 3G with T-mobile.

Anyway you can turn off Mobile network on the fly, you can also put the phone in airplane mode, but both of these you will have to internet, also you could turn off Auto Sync, or turn the phone OFF for best battery life.
[Desire General] maxermaxer:
Hi I am a new Desire user. I setup Exchange server sync on my desire with no problem on email. However the calendar syncing doesn't work. It always say "time out ...". I can't sync the calendar at all. Anyone has this problem and a solution?
[Desire General] mr.vandalay:
mine syncs just fine.

i'm guessing that you didn't forget to check the calendar to be synced?

also try to set up a different exchange acc , like gmail and see if you have the same problem...just so you know if it's the phone of server error
[Desire General] maxermaxer:
Actually I did check it. The message is "Connection Socket Timeout" under "Sync calendar [X]".

If I can receive email that means I can connect to exchange server with no problem right? Then there should be no other special setting for calendar... strange...
[Desire General] maxermaxer:
So is this a bug or what? Do I have to wait for Android 2.2 ... ...? Or do I need to purchase touchdown??? *_*
[Desire General] raupe:
Hi Folks!

Just delete all pairings with all (even old or other [windows phone] devices) in windows mobile device center and/or outlook web access.

Wait until all pairings completed successfully on active devices and create a new sync partnership with the desire.

To get those sync problems gone that should be the most clean way.

Synchronisation at all works in general against Exchange 2007 - do you have all ms server updates applied?

Greetings from Berlin/Germany

Ralf
[Desire General] maxermaxer:
Hi Ralf, the problem is actually not the sync between Outlook calendar saved on PC and my Desire. It is the sync between Exchange server and my Desire. When you say delete all the pairing you mean the pairing between ActiveSync installed on PC and the mobile phone right? Correct me if I am wrong. :-)
[Desire General] NoNick2:
Yes, I have the same problem ("Connection Socket Timeout") with my Desire and Exchange 2003. Email and contacts work like a charm, but not the calendar. However, with Touchdown everything works fine.

*edit*

I followed the instructions in a post by mattrog (search for "Exchange 2010 Sync Calendar Problem (solution!)" and you'll find the post) and it worked.
[Desire General] maxermaxer:
Yes!! It works!! Thanks NoNick2!
[Desire General] raynerape:
I have errors from time to time but it is only a handful of connections that time out. Most work well.
[Desire General] 0nest0ne:
in my case i had thousands of calender items, i just deleted the old years completely (do i need my calender items from 2001?) - then the desire could sync without problems.

have phun
[Desire General] HeMan321:
Another fix

I have found another fix!

I tried backing up and deleting all calendar items from my Exchange 2007 calendar, I also tried deleting the ActiveSync relationships from within OWA. I then tried deleting the account on my phone (a HTC Desire running 2.2) and recreating it, but it kept failing to sync the calendar. I noticed that each time I tried, most (but not all) of the calendar items I had deleted from my calendar in Exchange came back, presumably from the phone! That made me realise that for some reason many of the Exchange calendar items had become local calendar items on the phone, hence they survived me deleting the Exchange account and they were getting synced back to Exchange each time I re-created the account on the phone.

So I then tried:

Settings > Applications > Manage applications > Calendar storage > Clear data

And set up the account again and all was OK :)

I don't know if deleting everything from the Exchange calendar or deleting and re-creating the account on the phone was required (but they definitely didn't fix it on their own) but I am sure clearing the local phone calendar was the crucial step in my case.
[HD2 General] pabloxprt:
Hello everyone,

I just got my Hd2 few days ago and there is olny two things pissing me off with that phone.

1st is the wifi, that is disconnecting shortly after the screen goes black(battery saving i suppose). I listen to the internet radio over wifi and it stops after screen goes black. Is there any way to keep it on all the time????? :confused:

Second thing is the divx support. I have a divx 0.93 program on it bot i doesnt have all the codecs in it. What is the best divx player out there?

Many thanks in advance folks
[HD2 General] DN41:
wifi during standby can be enabled with BSB Tweaks. its a modding tool with many features.

for playing vids i would say best is CorePlayer....

DN41
[HD2 General] pabloxprt:
thanks for replying :) i found many interesting options in bsb, includimg one responsible to keep wifi on in standby. i switch it on, phone asks for reboot, turns on ans that option is switched off again. Same story with startup animation, it never switches it off. ??????? is there reason why that may not work?
[HD2 General] conantroutman:
Its because that registry entry reverts to default whenever you reset the device.

With a reg editor go to HKLM - comm - bcmsddhd1 - parms

In that folder there should be an entry called htckeepwifionwhenunattended

change the value to 1 and your sorted.

Hope that helps.
[HD2 General] FRANQ_23_PL:
Or use this CAB - this is the same thing like conantroutman advice you, but packed to installer.
[HD2 General] conantroutman:
Thanks franq thats very handy, does the cab need to be used after a reset or does it keep the setting permanently?
[HD2 General] barty22:
Forget about that weird cab, god knows what it does.

BSBTweaks wifi during standby option indeed doesn't work.

Better to use WifiNoStandby, install once, and that's it. No need to do anything again.

For divx; CorePlayer is the best option out there.
[HD2 General] FRANQ_23_PL:
Dude hello!... This cab IT IS THE SAME like WiFiNoStandby. You think what a profit for me or anybody is posting suspicious stuff? Wake up dude and start think more like you talkin a bull ****s.

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] stroupified:
sweet, but since when did we have to pay to listen online?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] w1retap:
Yeah.. I'm not paying extra on top of my subscription. I used to have free online XM radio. Now they have a special music right's group tax, online listening fee, and I'm hearing more and more commercials. Sorry XM.. no.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] NCX Designs:
to clarify, if you already have the $2.99 internet premium access, you can use this app without being charged or having to sign up

free 7 day trial when you first use the app

and sirius is offering a free preview for 30 days on 50 of its channels for listening in the car
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] UgXvibe:
Damn, you beat me to it.. I was just gonna post this. :P

XM202 baby!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] moosc:
ok can some answer this if i do online 2.99$ listen to laptop then leave house boot up incredible or ipod touch do i have to pay 2.99$ for each on of these?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] NCX Designs:
No, the internet premium allows you to stream from where ever when ever you want.

I use SiriusXMStreamer on my PC to my 360 via TVersity thanks to the internet plan, CD quality audio

I had the iPhone app for my ipod touch before it died, now i have the Incredible and have the Sirius app on it.

no extra fees and i only pay $23 a quarter

I get a-la-carte thanks to the Starmate 5 receiver - $6.99 a month

then $2.99 for premium internet.

I pretty much save by going the quarterly plan

hope this helps

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] NCX Designs:
keep in mind if you use the official app on two different android devices, you can't be logged in at the same time.

this only works if you log in to an unofficial program like SiriusXMstreamer on PC and on an official app. The official app has log in measures in place that keep track of when your signed in.

so just a heads up on that

ok this is kicking my a** where do i sign in at? i log in on my incredible says my trial period expired. go to xm i get same message.. look at my account i see its on there.. any ideas what the hang up is? thanks
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] NCX Designs:
are you using the trial account? or the account you paid for?

Try loggin in at Sirius.com since XM is the provider of the online component now you should be able to log in

try to see if you can access your account atleast online, if you can't sounds like a log in issue
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] moosc:
no not the trial. already called xm and added to my account but they never said how to log in or where. tried the Sirius.com but the online player doesn't recognize my account log in. of subject remark its been a year why are the platforms divided cant they merge and get there act together. ok sorry for rant guess ill sirius in morning.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] NCX Designs:
if you haven't already, when you talked to Sirius XM, did they give you a log in? when you sign up your supplied with a login,

but you can create one if you already don't have one too

https://xmro-secure.xmradio.com/listenercare/profile/registerAccount/radioInput.xm

you need your XM radio ID so they can verify your account though

once thats done, you can register for your online login info

once thats done, you can log in to the Droid :)
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] moosc:
Already have a online account... but i dont have a online at sirius.com when i tried to register over there it didnt recognize my radio id.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] moosc:
Crazy cool just xm they forgot to update account so all is good thanks for all the help.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] NCX Designs:
Sure thing, sorry i didn't post this late, i was in the middle of a PC format and i'm getting everything re-installed.

glad you got it working, thats great to hear, sometimes account updates or additional features depending on how the system gets refreshed takes a few hours to a few days to get it working.

now on a side note, when i first used the Sirius XM app on the incredible, i noticed a weird bug. If you listen for about an hour or so the feed seems to either cut off or restart with a low quality sound then the CD quality would kick in a few seconds after. after which within a few mins it would play "catch up" to the live feed again. Has anyone noticed this on theres?

i don't know if its the incredible switching from a cache to a live feed when switching connections or not, one other thing i've noticed is, when the lock screen is on, wifi is not being used, 3G is used as default when you unlock the screen, it uses wifi again but then sirius app says "lost connection, retry" then it re-connects.

hopefully this bug will get fixed unless its just me:confused:

If you guys ordered any cases for the Evo would you mind telling us the website and providing any coupon codes for discounts?

By the way you can go to retailmenot dotcom and look for the store name (Example: Case-Mate). It will give you different codes you can use at checkout.

How do you know when you are running 2.1 v3 leak? I need information.
[Droid Eris General] jearl75:
Menu > Settings > About Phone > Software Info

Baseband Verision: 2.42.00.04.12

Software Number: 2.36.605.1

2.1 Leak v3
[Droid Eris General] thenestor:
That's if you're trying to differentiate between "leak v1" or "leak v2" versus "leak v3", but there's a little more to it than that if you're trying to differentiate between "leak v3" versus "root" versus the "OTA 2.1". If you're looking for that kind of clarification, you'll need to check the HBOOT version by powering off your phone and then powering on with the "send" button held down. If you're on a leak, it's HBOOT 1.49 S-ON. If you're rooted, it's HBOOT 1.49 S-OFF. If you're on the "2.1 OTA", it's either HBOOT 1.47 S-ON or HBOOT 1.46 S-ON.

I have WM Standard Rom 6.5.

For some reason I cannot play videos. I get an error from Windows Media saying "The source filter for this file could not be loaded."

Any ideas how exactly what the problem is and/or how to fix it?

Thanks!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Lennyz1988:
Probably because you don't have the right codecs. Use a program like coreplayer or similair.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Vesis:
It won't even play videos captured by the camera.

The housing for the tmobile tp2 is different from the tilt 2 but are the boards different?

Does anyone have a picture of both or at least of the tilt 2?

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ultraprimeomega:
thanks but as far as i know its the same as a tilt 2 but the tilt has a PTT button
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ultraprimeomega:
got my hands on a tmobile board, all i can say it looks the same as any tp2 board the only difference no PTT button but the points for the button are their.

The reason for this thread was to see if i cant get a tmobile board into a TP2 or tilt 2 housing. I got a tilt 2 but i want to use it a little longer while still keep warranty on it before i void it, i do have simple mobile a tmobile MVNO but no 3G on it because the tilt do not support AWS like the tmobile version.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ms0529:
sure, you can put the tmo board in your tilt 2, but it will not work on at&t 3G network, wrong radio frequencies. It will fit, I have done it twice with tmo board to tilt2
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] nsheaffer:
Where would one find the Tmobile board? I have a tilt 2 and I am using it on tmobile but because of radio I cant access tmobile 3G, would be awesome if I could.

What all is required for changing out the board?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ms0529:
need the board and then take it apart and install it. Sounds simple, but lot's of small screws and parts that can be broken or damaged. There are a couple of video's on youtube related to disassembly of TouchPro2, same as tilt 2 only no push to talk button. converting a Tilt 2 to TMO will leave a hole in the case where the PTT button was, you can simply use the button and tack it in with glue to cover the hole so it stays put.

do a google on touchpro 2 disassembly and order a board from either HTC parts, or Ebay and go for it. Then you can get TMO 3G.
