yeah im getting that to..or sometime i go make a call and it says the phones off..when i dont remember hitting the phone on/off button. not sure why the phone has that app..guess if you don't want to receive or make calls that day.

Just for giggles install the visual voicemail app, run it once, even if you do not have it setup on your account, and see if your 129's go away ...

Almost willing to bet they do ....

a TMO rep said if you have a TMO HD2 then it is flagged for VVM even if you do not have it setup ...

I have TMO HD2 with VVM activated and I still get the same 129 empty text at least once a day.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] godsp33d:
To start off, i have used google.. and searched many strings.

I have also poked around with the settings on my phone.

Ok my issue is when i try to txt any email address my G1 tells me that its converting the message to MMS.. the problem is that i use an unlocked G1 without a data plan, so i cant use MMS messaging.

-this is not the same problem where "the message is over 3 messages long" and it gets converted to MMS-

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ljesh:
Okay... on my previous phones (HTC with WM, Nokia with symbian...) you could have data connection active, but the phone would use it in X minutes/hours (just as often you setup everything to update, like mail).

With android, I have noticed that data connection is active all the time. It may not make transfer constantly, but the connection is active. Why is this so? Have you all noticed this too?

I have noticed that by turning mobile connection off, I can get my Desire battery to last x3 times longer then leaving it active (example: 20 hours with constant data connection on, 2-3 days with data connection disabled all the time).

Why doesn't the phone use the connection only when needed, and disconnect?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cez10:
get a program called juice defender that will activate the connection by a schedule i.e 1m of active connection every 5 minutes.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ljesh:
I had that program, no problem in that aspect. My question is: why is only android doing this? Why android must keep the connection active all the time in 1 hour, when it will really need that connection for a minute every hour?

I am not asking for a third-party solutions, I am talking about general android function :)

[HD2 General] justwonder:
Maybe you have visual voice enable in Tmobile account but not seting up in the phone yet.
[HD2 General] jason370:
hmm, can you please explain how vvm has any impact on text messaging? also what is it i need to do in order to fix this?

thanks,

jason
[HD2 General] watcher64:
Visual voice mail receives its updates via sms, if the app is installed it will intercept these and you will never see them ...

If you have VVM setup and no longer have the app on the phone due to a custom rom then you will see these messages ...

Easiest thing to do is grab the VVM cab and re-install it ...
[HD2 General] jason370:
thats certainly very interesting. thank you for that however, wouldnt i need to have gotten a voicemail in order for this situation to occur, if we follow your logic?

i have not hasd a voicemail in quite a few days now. iis this a recurring ping via sms or must it be triggered by an actual voicemail?

thanks a lot,

jason
[HD2 General] watcher64:
Yes I do believe it is sort of a "Keep Alive" sort of thing and it may also be a trigger to tell the VVM app to check , or for it to send any changes you have made to the settings ...
[HD2 General] jason370:
i set up vvm, still getting this annoying text. surely i am not the only person to ever get this and surely it must be something?

anyone?

[HD2 General] misterlim:
i get the same thing, almost on a daily basis! i've set up vvm but it still sends me these txt... and for some reason i also get previous txts from my gf with the sim icon next to it as well.

I get them every now and then. I have the stock ROM and did not set up VVM. I learned to ignore them. I don't even delete them anymore.

Yeah, Texas is a small state, so it shouldn't be too hard to find a cell phone :P

I'm in Austin, it's a fairly techno-oriented city and Motorola has or used to have some office/manufacturing here. Maybe I'll get lucky.

I really think the contest has not actually begun yet. My first reason for thinking this is that no official rules have been posted. I'm not a lawyer, but even for a novel contest like this, don't you need rules posted somehow? Secondly, not a single real clue has been given. Telling someone a cell phone is in a particular state or region is either not a real clue, whoever finds it will just be someone who randomly stumbles upon it.

So, I think they have just been laying the groundwork and building interest. It's kind of annoying being teased by the posts, but I can't look away.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] RedRamage:
So I've been playing around with my Touch Pro 2 that I just got a few weeks ago. Having lots of fun, except for one thing: I can't get my Bluetooth controls to work for advancing or repeating tracks or pausing play with ANY media player except for Windows Media Player. I've tried at least a half dozen other players and every time I try to change tracks or pause play nothing happens with the music player and my phone just returns to the "home" screen. :(

What's worse, when I trying to use it with Media Player it seems to lock up some of my hardware buttons and I can't use the start to back key until I reboot. Anyone else experience any issues like this? Did I just screw something up by playing around with too many other programs?

I'm on Verizon running Win 6.5.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] RedRamage:
Just an update... I just loaded Pocket Tunes from NormSoft. This program works with BT buttons right out of the box. This was the program I used to use on my old phone, but I didn't think they had a 480x800 skin. Just found one and I'm a happy camper.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Aaron McCarthy:
I just use the player built into sense and my controls work fine with my bluetooth car kit. I can advance, pause play etc etc
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MikeBrWade:
Is anyone else's headphones refusing to work? I will plug them in and for a split second I get some sound then nothing. If unplug them it works just fine. If I restart sometimes they will work again but then stop for no reason.

Seems to be in ANY app that makes sounds, I am running Bugless Beast v.3 and it did it in .4 as well. I have the full root (NAND etc)

I rooted and installed a custom rom within hours of getting the phone so I am not sure if it is something with my hardware or the ROMs I am loading. I haven't seen anyone complain so I am guessing it is just me =(
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nenn:
is it a safe bet youve tried these headphones in other players?

have you tried connecting them to any other sort of speaker system?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pathtologos:
I have had this problem. I also have Fresh, Bugless Beast, and EVOlution v8. Can't remember off the top of my head if I've tried the phones in each. Like you said though, if I re-boot, pull them out and plug them back in, or both, they start working again. Weird. The earphones work on my laptop. Hasn't been too much of an issue (doesn't happen all the time) so I've been ignoring it. Besides, the sound quality of the phones I have sucks!! I'm ordering new ones soon and I'm hoping that will resolve the issue. Haven't seen anyone else with this problem so I assumed it was the phones (they were SUPER cheap, like $10).
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MikeBrWade:
Yes they work other places and in other systems. They are very expensive headphones so I am certain it isn't the headphones issue.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djjenso0n:
headphone problem

had that also may be the music app you have on the phone or maybe too many music apps. i had mixzing media player, double twist and the standard music app. i took the mixzing player off and had no issues after that. don't know if this is the answer, but something to look at. hope this helps.

Use This

Use this program / widget available in the marketplace.

Headset Blocker.

It has something to do with how the jack seats. The widget nukes the mic function and fixes the problem so now all my headphones / car jacks work.

It blocks the headset / mic function so your normal jacks will work without issue. I have been using it since release day and no more problems. Who uses those wired mic/headsets anymore anyhow.......BLUEHAIRS thats who.

Hi guys, Did anyone tried Beautiful widgets on your tattoos.

It's realy beautifull :) But ...

I tried the latest version, but the weather displays only for Paris. When I try to reconfigure to use geolocation or force to use my town nothing happened. It stays at Paris.

When I try to configure on the first time when I put the home widget, nothing displayed in weather. Here is the attachment of the latest (I think) version. It works on Eclair

[HTC Aria General] modest_mandroid:
Can any of you dudes that have the phone comment on your experiences with battery life? I'd imagine it would be pretty decent because of the smaller display size and lower cpu frequency, but I've read some reviews that it's mediocre.

Anyone have it last longer than a day on a full charge?
[HTC Aria General] ko0ky:
the battery life is better than the backflip I can say that much, but I dont think it will make it 12 hours without being recharged. I actually dont use the voice services that much either.

I would like it even more if the battery at least lasted thru the day.

MY BIGGEST COMPLAINT... the speaker on this phone SUCKS!!!!!!!!! it's a shame, I really REALLY love this phone.
[HTC Aria General] modest_mandroid:
Man, not even 12 hours? I'd hate to see what the battery life on an Evo 4g is like. Is it just because of the 1200mAh battery or is this something inherent to Android?
[HTC Aria General] howl87:
6 hrs 57 mins talk time. frm real world testing.

i read a review on pcmag web page and the reviewer test the battery life and said it got 7 hours talk time. in real world testing. so its as good as smart phones get. better than a iphone or any other android phone thats out.
[HTC Aria General] OutsiderWV:
Batter Life is GOOD!

Ok....I am new to the android universe as the Aria is my first android phone. However in response to batter life it is really good. I have a friend who has the EVO can can only go about 5 - 6 hours before charging.

I turned the screen brightness on my Aria down to about 30% and I yesterday I went through an entire day of work (messing with the phone a lil) then went home and messed with it for a good amount of time (1 1/2 hrs). When i went to charge it that night it had 35% battery life left.

Today I left at 7:30 am and it is now 3:30 pm and the batter says it is full. Now this isn't a percentage app or anything but the batter on the phone says full. Granted i only have 2G where I live (Edge) and I am not using wifi or anything, plus i haven't messed around with the phone too much today, but that is pretty darn good if you ask me.
[HTC Aria General] waltah!:
Here's what I used mine for yesterday:

Off charger at 7a.m.

During day I estimate that I used:

20 min voice, 25 or so sms, several trips and comments on Engadget, a dozen or more FB app uses, downloaded 2 entire songs via 3G, 15 min of browsing. Multiple email accts, fb and twitter accts syncing throughout the day.

When I left work at 6p.m. I was at 47% according to battery app. After some app downloads and a little surfing, 25 min of voice calls later it was at 25% when I went to bed at Midnight.

It's better than my Pre Plus and better than the Backflip for sure. I'd say that if you're a heavy user you may want a car charger and/or an extra wall charger to be on the safe side. I'd say that for any modern Smartphone though. I'm very happy with it, myself.
[HTC Aria General] Shad0wguy:
My experience is near identical to this.

As for today it left the charger at 9AM, only 10 or so texts today, on standby the rest of the time and it still says 100%
[HTC Aria General] modest_mandroid:
Hmm.. I guess it's highly dependent on how you use your device and how often you have it sync with online services.
[HTC Aria General] ko0ky:
yeah, i find it hard to believe some of these numbers. I don't use my phone much for voice. I dont use wifi or bluetooth, i will trigger the gps, and maybe my screen is too bright, I do about 20-30 text messages and yes, some downloading. I get a pretty good signal where I live so I dont think my battery is being eaten up by the radio searching and trying to connect to towers. I'm serious, if I get 7 hours out of this thing I would be super pleased.

I used to this though, I have had many smartphones over the year.. i just need to purchase all new accessories to keep the device charged as much as possible. ( additional charger, car charger..)

The battery life is not as good as my tilt2..but blows the backflip (i owned for about 3 weeks) in the water.
[HTC Aria General] Clienterror:
I think the battery life is just as good or moderately better than most smart phones. Vs the 3Gs I think it's slightly better, Vs the backflip I had for a week, it's way better IMO.
[HTC Aria General] zeyoner:
Just placed an order. Hey as long as it's better than my G1. I'm happier than a pig in mud! G1 is the worst when it comes to battery life.
[HTC Aria General] cegna09:
Battery seems to be good. I charge my phone at work while it is on. I'm running pandora constantly at work as well. Yesturday i left work and was playing with the phone from around 6-11, using wifi, 3g, bluetooth, some gps, screen on the whole time, multiple apps open, downloaded a lot of stuff, syncing on for weather, gmail, contacts, news, facebook, and a whole bunch of other stuff. That brought the battery from 100% to 24%. I then killed all tasks that weren't needed, turned off all radios except phone and 3g, and let it sit overnight. It only dropped to 23% by 6:30am.

It seems to do really well with normal use. With heavy use the battry falls, just like any smartphone.
[HTC Aria General] glitterbug:
my battery lasted all day yesterday with what i would consider pretty heavy usage. i'm very pleased with the battery so far.
[HTC Aria General] Erinc2005:
I've has mine since SUnday- now wednesday and the battery is HORRID for me.

I pull it off the charger @ 6am, and now its 12 noon and i have 40% left. I don't get on Facebook much til after 4pm, Use iMobsters sporadically for short amts of time, MAY browse the web if a page is blocked @ work, but that's it. Dont talk on it here @ work.

I dont get it!! I changed my screen brightness???
[HTC Aria General] glitterbug:
are you using a bunch of widgets on your home screens?
[HTC Aria General] waltah!:
Mine came off of charger at about 7am and it's now at 72% at 9pm. I didn't use it much today as I was busy at work, but it's still checks my email, fb and twitter throughout the day. I do have the Friendstream widget up as well. Overall I'm good with the battery on mine.

My brightness is set right in the middle with auto brightness turned off.
[HTC Aria General] asiancuta:
battery life is pretty descent coming from an HTC Tilt 2. especially with 3g constantly on. i pretty much got similar battery life as the Tilt 2 (without 3g on..3g ate through the battery like a cop with a doughnut). i'd estimate you could probably last 18-20hrs if there was some way to turn 3g off...that includes wifi off, gps off, and auto backlight dimming off.

Advanced Task Killer also helps extend the battery life.

gotta say for how snappy it is, the clarity of the screen, and no lagging..this compact smartphone with it's smaller than typical smartphone battery packs some punch. :) VERY happy with the upgrade to Android :D
[HTC Aria General] modest_mandroid:
I wonder if there'll be an extended battery for this thing that doesn't require an enlarged back. I remember my Tilt had something upwards of like 1800mAh that was the same size as the stock battery.
[HTC Aria General] jbizz:
is it better to put a app link on the homescreen instead of a widget?

i only have a few that run on the homescreen other than the ones that were pre-installed there.
[HTC Aria General] littlerob904:
If you plan on using the phone for anything other than an occasional phone call, you will need to charge it at least once before the end of the day. I just got mine a few days ago, so I've been spending a lot of time toying with it, listening to pandora, downloading apps etc... It's almost 3pm and I'm at 30%. I had the gps on while I played 18 on Sunday, used it with freecaddie for a half decent rangefinder. It made it through the round, about 5 hours. I had to charge it when I got home, battery was at 15%. I think it's fairly typical for a smartphone, a spare micro-usb cable at the office and in the car are certainly going to be a necessity if you are a heavy user.
