wifi or 3g?

and is there a big difference in speed?

[Captivate General] GuestK00442:
Wi-fi is better for battery life, and its usually faster than 3G
[Captivate General] tysj:
I found, according to Juiceplotter, that my phone dies a tad bit quicker when I'm connected to wifi at home as opposed to 3g. Funky but true. Slopes of wifi usage decrease a lot quicker than the slopes for 3g usage.

I was losing 30% every night with my phone sitting with the screen off and wifi set to never sleep. Last night I disabled the wifi and lost 3% over 8 hours even though I was only getting 1 bar or signal and have autosync on for weather, facebook, email. I am going to try to leave wifi on tonight with it set to only stay on when plugged in and see how much it will drop.
[Captivate General] Bjd223:
I agree setting wifi to never sleep will kill your battery quicker than 3G overnight. I use Wifi when I am at work because it is faster, I am not 100% sold on the idea that it uses less battery than normal data. Especially if you do not normally use a lot of data.

I'm running CM6, with Wireless Tether 2.0.2 (only wireless tether app I found), and I've done some searching but found no answers to my issue.

Every time I tap on the app to start tethering, it says that it's starting to tether but then pops up saying it couldn't, to try again later. I've uninstalled and reinstalled, that still didn't work. I've tried clearing the SuperUser cache/data out and that still didn't do anything. I've also rebooted the phone but that didn't work.

USB Debugging is also enabled.

What could be wrong? Or, should I try finding a different version or app of Wireless Tether?

Hi there,

I'm the developer of the 'iMulator' application, which targets the Windows Mobile platform. In theory I could reach 100fps, but since most monitors / screens have a fixed refresh rate, it would be useless to actually run the application at 100fps. That is how I came to wonder wether the displays of Phones have a cirtain refresh rate.

My question; "What is the most common refresh rate of the display found on a (Windows Mobile) phone?"

1. Root with Unrevoked3

2. Perform a "nandroid" backup

3. Install Unrevoked Forever

4. Install all Sprint over the air updates for radio, etc <-- Can I do this???

5. Install ClockworkMod and use it to load a 2.2 rooted Rom
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SilverZero:
Yes, but don't mess with Unrevoked3, it's not a full root. Use Simple Root or just do it manually like a real man using the tutorials. :)

Rooting will wipe your data if you do it manually, but you can use Unrevoked to do a partial root and then do nandroid or Titanium/MyBackup, just know that you'll still need a full root after that.

Also, you'll just have to flash whatever radios you want using recovery, after you root. It's all done the same way, just flash the zip file. Just watch out when you do radios, they often go through 2-3 automatic reboots during the process. NEVER interrupt the flashing even if you think it's stuck, just wait a few minutes for it to get to your lock screen and be ready.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] .jond:
One thing that bothers me about flashing radios is it seems like it always breaks things from what I'm reading.

Thats why I was thinking about to use unrevoked forever(so I don't have to worry about losing root), and then use the real over the air updates from sprint to update my radios.

Seems safer and more reliable to do radios that way?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rafroehlich2:
Most people just mess up the process. Check the md5 sum and leave the phone alone until you get to the lock screen. Many pull the battery out thinking its going through a boot loop when it really isn't. This bricks it. It is relatively safe.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SilverZero:
Yeah, it's usually the user that screws up rather than the software. The OTA is doing the same thing, just initiating from the OS instead of recovery. It's no safer, the radios that you find on the boards are the same files as the OTAs anyway.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Noxious Ninja:
Unrevoked3 + Unrevoked Forever is definitely a full root. I basically did what the OP wrote, except I used the pre-rooted stock Froyo update.

OP, you may wish to look at this thread:

Gotcha. Thanks guys!

Is there a general rule of thumb with which radio to run?

I'm using the thread below which lists radios and wimax, and I at first assumed the newest is the best, but people complain 2.15.00.07.28 makes their calls choppy, and things like that. Is it safer to go 1 version back, or is there another way to make sure you're getting one that's 110% good to go?

Hi

I love my desire. The HTC calculator is nice with the finger friendly buttons with haptic feedback, and I love the fact it's respecting the operator priorities. But what's wrong with the calculator?

100 - 99,9 = 0,09999999999999999 :confused:

100 - 99,8 = 0,2

100 - 99,7 = 0,2999999999 :confused:

100 -99,6 = 0,4

100 - 99,5 = 0,5

100 - 99,4 = 0,599999999 :confused:

100 - 99,3 = 0,7

100 - 99,2= 0,7999999999 :confused:

100 - 99,1 = 0,9

is this a known issue?

Do you know another calculator where you can review all the line you typed and correct it if needed, that has big buttons, has parenthesis, and that give accurate results? I used to use HiCalc on WinMo, but I can't seem to find a good substitute on android.:(
[Desire General] rodhull:
Turn the phone to landscape and more functions are available like parentheses. Not sure about your other points!
[Desire General] stupsi99:

And I use RealCalc which seems to correct for it.

[Desire General] al89nut:
Why are you putting commas in not decimal points? 99.7 not 99,7
[Desire General] bedeabc:
^^^^ Other people in the world write things differently to us ;)
[Desire General] casca:
ok...this is new...lol

do you guys think a solution is possible? or should we all get another calculator?lol
[Desire General] foxmeister:
You need to get another calculator.

Seems that HTC's calculator is using floating point rather than fixed point or decimal floating point.

Regards,

Dave
[Desire General] ZigmaDK:
it is also a problem on the Vanilla calculator.

I'm using OpenDesire and it also has this problem.
[Desire General] al89nut:
they might, but if the calculator is configured to work with points not commas I'm not surprised it fails

Edit

Wrong! Is the same with points as commas. My bad
[Desire General] Benj555:
When we use the calculator we press the . button, as there is no comma.

FYI when in the UK you write 1,002.50 the rest of the world writes 1 000,50.

HTC answered me to find another calculator on the maket, cause the HTC calculator is a basic one. LMAO I know it won't solve complex equations, but 100 - 99.9 should be solved by any basic calculator, even by a 7 year old pupil...so I guess it should be solved by a calculator that displays basic trigonometry buttons, shouldn't it?
[Desire General] mitch1974:
It fails with points as well.

100-99.9=0.0999999999

So it's not a localisation thing, it's just a rubbish calculator.
[Desire General] zonkkk:
This happens to any substraction having the following pattern:

n-((n-1)+p), where p = {0.9, 0.7, 0.4, 0.2}

And it doesn't matter whether the Calculator uses '.' or ',' for digits.

Very strange...
[Desire General] foxmeister:
That depends on your definition of the rest of the world. ;)

The two most populous nations on the planet, namely China and India, use the point as the decimal separator, as does the US, Japan, and most of the ex-British empire.

For the most part, the "Decimal Comma" is in use in mainland Europe and most of South America.

Regards,

Dave
[Desire General] zonkkk:
The 'rest of the world' write: 1.000,50 (they use the '.' to group thousands - e.g. 154.234.345,243)
[Desire General] n-j-f:
Don't see why floating point should have anything to do with this. Floating point is relevant where there is a greater number of digits required to do the calculation than would normally be displayed. This is a simple subtraction of a number with one decimal place. This is just plain wrong!
[Desire General] foxmeister:
nparley is correct.

Whomever wrote the HTC calc app used binary floating point data types. The subtraction is being performed "correctly" within the limitations imposed by the use of that data type. 0.1 cannot be exactly represented by that data type, which is why this issue shows up.

Regards,

Dave
[Desire General] al89nut:
No, in the UK we would use . to indicate decimal and , to indicate thousands. Which I think is standard?
[Desire General] sutepm:
lol, they should be using BigDecimal rather float.

Just use RealCalc. Whenever I install a custom rom, the default calculator is one of the first things I remove from the image to save space since it's pretty crappy.
[Desire General] James McMinn:
You can't represent 0.1 exactly using floats (0.1 = 0.0625 + 0.03125 + 0.015625 + ... ), it gets rounded down very very slightly which is causing the error.

Gmail because of Push and because I like the way it displays the emails--I think it does better with downloads and embedded images than the stock app, plus I think it organizes my messages better too.

Hey,

Just the other day my phone started doing the strangest thing. The time is not accurate, or at least it isnt for long. It is fine when you boot the phone and it auto-updates time from the network, but after a few hours it is off. For example, its current 2:10p, but my phone said 2:23. I enable\disable airline mode, which causes it to resync with the network, and it corrects itself.

I just applied JAC's OCv3 kernel 2 days ago, but I didnt notice any issues until today. Anyone else having a similar issue? It is quite annoying when you cant rely on your cell phones clock lol

Hi there

I have been an Iphone 3gs user since they debuted and I have really enjoyed its simplicity and practical way that it just works. However, I have no signal etc and recently find myself getting back to my hacking roots.

Anyways what phone would be good as I have used a Dell Streak for the past week and I really enjoyed it but the use of the iphone interface just blows it out of the water. I did update the phone to 2.1 which was very cool.

So are they a collection of apps that would bridge my transition?
[General Topics] Phryyyk:
If you think the iOS experience is better than the standard Android, try the Galaxy S, it has a familiar iOS like set up, but with added Android goodness. If you want high-end performance, then the aforementioned Galaxy S, HTC Desire/EVO, iPhone 4 are you best contenders, the Galaxy and HTC devices have the advantage of being cheaper, if a little less bespoke. Signal wise, I can't say that my Desire is any better than my old iPhone 3G was, you've either damaged it (physically or caused some software glitch) or your network has been playing up. The good thing about Android is if you don't like it, you can change it to the nth degree. Most phones perform equally well at the most mundane tasks, it's only when you have a niche action that you can tell the differences; the iPhone 4 does have great battery life and a cracking screen quality, but you will find that doing multiple things on an Android device that little bit more intuitive and the 2.2 browser is phenomenally quick. As for Apps, the design of some the Android apps is lacking in the polish that the iPhone equivalents have, but that's because the spectrum of phones it may be used on is far greater. I have personally loved every second of my Desire, it makes far more sense than my iPhone did, I can do things quicker and it is a more functional phone, it just takes a little getting used to, the screen for instance is sometimes too sensitive, but it is far greater a Device than the 3G. I cannot comment on the iPhone 4 however having only spent about half an hour on one. It is simply a case of trying as many devices as you can. All devices have their problems and shortcomings and equally they have their advantages, you have to choose the one which fits you best.
[General Topics] 8525Smart:
As someone who actually went from the iPhone 3GS to the Samsung Captivate recently, let me just say this: Once Froyo comes out, your user experience would probably be better, but it

will not

result in a better experience than what you had on the iPhone. Just a different experience.

This goes the same for all smartphones, I think. If you're particularly used to one OS, then unless the OS you're moving to is superior in every single way, the transition is going to tough. In this regard, moving from iOS is particularly tough as it has the best app store, and easily one of the best user experience.

Hell, I know I'm not having an easy time transitioning to Android (Captivate is my first Android phone).

But if you just stick with it, I think things will eventually turn out well. As for the apps to make that transition easier, I think the Android Market has a 'replacement' app for most things you got with the iPhone, if not an Android version of the exact same app you used on the iPhone.
[General Topics] Mr.Obvious:
App wise, what are you looking for to "bridge the gap"??

Also when 2.2 does release for you, it's alot better then the 2.1 Android IMHO I just went from (2.1-update1--->2.2 FRG01B--->2.2 FRG22D and Google just keeps getting better.

You will never have the same experience on ANY Android device that you had on the iPhone, your talking about a "open source VS closed", two very different operating systems.. etc etc... But look through the Market and you just might find something to close that gap..

Good luck,

Cheers
