[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sutepm:
2d 18h and on 16% with mobile internet on, sync on etc. But my usage is fairly low, about 20 mins voice, 10 texts approx, 20 mins 3G web browsing and about 10 mins of gaming.

On heavy use, it will last at least 24hrs - not bad, though I use setcpu to adjust max clock speed to about 700mhz and I have not notice any difference in terms of slow down.

Also I am not using any task killers apps.

EDIT: Forgot to mention that I use Timeriffic to automatically turn on airplane mode at night every night and off in the morning.

That not happen on my phone, FORTUNALLY!!! If my phone is on 2g and have the internet connection active and some tries to call me, the internet connection will stopped and i can get the call..Maybe depends on the operator? (anyway my desire is unbranded with stock froyo 2.2)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxmeister:
Yes - I probably should've mentioned that this is carrier dependent, but most carriers don't seem to be implement it.

Hey guys,

I know that having auto orientation activated causes temporary freezes on android. Sometimes I don't want to miss the landscape orientation - so instead of having the orientation being checked by the proximity sensor (causing lags) - is there a chance to simply map a small programm to one of the hardware buttons (let's say longpress-back key flips orientation bei 90°)?

I wonder if one of you managed to do that with programs available at the marketplace. Or if one of you could give me a hint how to do that on my own.

Greetings

Same here

This has always been happening to me since new (running cupcake.) I was never sure if it was my router or the phone that was the problem tho. Now that I'm running eclair I can see how mine performs on the VPN protected uni wireless network. I was thinking upgrading the radio might help this??

Mine is a vodafone AU.

Same Issues

I have pretty much the same frustrating issue. I came from a G1 and I'm now on a MT3G 32B and i had wifi working before but than when i tried out this wireless tether app i can no longer connect to my wifi (on any build) does anyone have a fix or recommendation? I'm using the 2_22_23_02 radio
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] cupcakegobyebye:
I was running my phone today on the university wifi which has WPA and VPN and it ran flawlessly. I think the problem is with the router/access point and not the phone! I believe quite a few routers suffer this problem (intermittant performance.) Try checking for new router firmware or perhaps trying an old one to see if that works better.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] Marjinal:
I'm using Illıum's ewallet (one of the major factors of me using WM), and my Rom is Energy Cookie 28Aug. version. Trough day, I've been using ewallet lots of time for account numbers, personal pass codes, card numbers etc. . Untill today I never faced a self closedown with this application, but today after I open it, just whilst reading a text it shuts itself suddenly without any warning. It happened 3-4 times, I did restart the device but it couldn't help. What could be the reason? Due to Rom or any other thing like settings or other tweak programs? This program is very important for me, and for this very reason I need your help.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] DPvL:
same problem

I've installed the same ROM and also E-Wallet.

I have the same problem, after i deleted the empty wallet, i can use my own wallet. Somethimes it still closes itself, but not so often.

Is there a real posibility to solve this problem?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rmanaudio:
I just wanted to thank XDA and all the helpful people on here!

I've always had blackberry phones in the past (many including Storm) and was about to get the Torch, but said lets go to another platform.

I'm not a Apple fan so did some research on what the best Android phone currently. I bought myself a locked to Bell Galaxy S Vibrant.

Within 1 hour I had the phone unlocked and working on Rogers and had it rooted.

Have the phone fully customized to the way I like. Recalibrated the G-sensor and applied the lag and gps fix. Phone is hitting 2200 on Quadrant and I couldnt be happier!

I have also mastered the adb shell commands and removed apps I didnt want.

This phone is amazing and the people on here are just amazing.

This phone and this forum is light years ahead of BB and BB forums.

I'm now waiting for Froyo to drop officially.

The only things I dont like about this phone and its firmware:

1. Still have some lag (hope Froyo will fix)

2. No copy and paste feature like the BBs

Thanks again.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AlessandroIT:
Really?

Try to long-press the text box and you will have copy/paste options.

Regards.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rmanaudio:
I have tried that, but it does not work within a email. On the BB you could do copy&paste anywhere. No big deal.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rmanaudio:
Also here is my take on Blackberry/RIM:

I think they have given up on the consumer market and just focusing on the corperate world.

The 9800 Torch is years behind and RIM doesnt know how to keep up with Apple or Android.

They have very bad screens with low res. and they claim the reason for it is to save power and allow the phone to last longer. They are using old CPU/GPU's and the reason for it is to save power again. The OS and HW is maxed out on each device almost and it is to save power again so that the corp people dont have to pugin the phone during work.

BUT...after haveing a few BBs (curve, bold, storm) and now the Galaxy S, I can say that this phone will run circles around any BB and still give you enough juice to last the day. It might not last as long as a BB, but 90% of a BB and that is good enough. This tells me that RIM just cant keep up or engineer for the future, no wonder RIM stocks are hitting lows of the year.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dcoales:
I agree with manaudio. The galaxy s is the best phone I've ever had. The only slight niggle left is the lack of copy and paste in email. Seems like such a weird oversight is a modern phone. Hopefully samsung will provide a better email client soon.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] alovell83:
Use the internet browser, click the menu button > "more" > "select text"

I assume you'll be used to better functionality but it should do the job in a pinch, also the email client in the web is a bit better, though maybe leaving a larger system imprint/3g use. If you are currently using an app you might consider a permanent switch over, especially if it's just the convenience of 1-touch access replace the app with a bookmarked shortcut.

Hope that helps.

Hi there,

I am after a screenshot for the notification window. Could someone using an HTC Sence based ROM with the default theme take a picture of the bar fully expanded for me. I am trying to replicate the look on OpenDesire 4.0 atm and I can't remember what it looks like. hehe

TIA.

p.s. The screenshot I am requiring should look something like this... but ofc the HTC version. Many thanks.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] locsplitter:
Hiya,

I was poking around the forums a couple days ago and I stumbled across a hack that recalibrates the phone's battery STATUS, it doesn't do anything about helping battery life or anything.

Last night when I was about to go to sleep I had a battery life of 32%. I plugged in the phone, and immediately restarted it. When it booted up again, I kid you not, it had 63% battery life. I turned off the phone while plugged in to see the battery icon, the one that shows.the battery status while its charging with the phone off, and indeed it showed around 63,65%.

Anyone know where I could find this? I think its buried somewhere on the forums.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sfernandez:
THIS WILL HELP RECALIBRATE YOUR BATTERY SO YOU DON'T HAVE THAT ISSUE

1.Charge till full when powered on

2.power off

3.charge till full again

3.boot into recovery(adb reboot recovery or Power off the phone and then hold the volume up + Volume down + the power key. When it goes black the 2nd time release the power button and keep holding the volume buttons.)

3.wipe stats by going into Clockworkmod recovery -> advanced -> wipe battery stats.

4.boot and continue to use as normal
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SWINGR:
Heres 1 from another board:

""So, you are having trouble with your battery seemingly draining too quickly, especially after having flashed many ROMs/Kernels/etc...

It is possible that the problem (or part of the problem) is not necessarily the phone using too much power. If this is the case for you, you should see some results from doing the following:

1. Connect the phone to the charger with the phone powered on, and allow the phone to charge until it shows 100%

2. Disconnect the phone from the charger, and power it off.

3. Reconnect the phone to the charger with the phone powered off, and allow the phone to charge until the battery indicator shows 100% (you can use vol-up/vol-down to make the indicator come back up when the screen goes to sleep).

4. Disconnect the phone from the charger and power it on.

5. Once the phone is powered completely on, power it off again and reconnect it to the charger until the battery indicator shows 100%.

6. Disconnect the phone, power it on, and use it.

You should only need to use this sequence one time.

Hope this helps.-Joeybear23"""
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] PiratesCanDIAF:
This method we will use nandroid's recovery option in ClockworkMod

Requirements:

Rooted myTouch 3G 1.2 with USB Debugging

ClockworkMod Recovery Installed (can be install from ROM Manager)

Universal Androot apk saved to your AndroidSDK tools folder

(I will be doing this in adb)

Create the recovery folders

mkdir /sdcard/clockworkmod
mkdir /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup
mkdir /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/Stock

Mount the SD card so you can access it on your computer.

Now extract SAPPIMG_Sapphire_T-Mobile_US_2.10.531.4_release_signed.zip (from shipped-roms) [FYI: I had to use 7zip for this] into clockworkmod/backup/Stock.

Now we are down with that unmount it and return to adb.

Once your phone has remounted the SD card do:

cd /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/stock
md5sum * > nandroid.md5
cd ../../../
cat /system/bin/flash_image > flash_image

(If you do not have flash_image post here in this thread and I will pm you a link to it)

Reboot the phone and boot into recovery mode (hold home when powering on)

Once in there

**DO A FULL WIPE**

then restore the "Stock" backup from the restore menu,

It should get past boot and system then fail on /data THIS IS NORMAL

It is not safe to reboot your phone

Set up your phone and all that good stuff, then re-enable adb debugging.

in a command prompt cd to your androidsdk/tools folder and run

adb install UniversialAndroot.apk

and reroot your phone (bare with me)

once that is done do

adb shell
su

be sure to click allow on the Superuser Permission pop up that shows up on the phone

mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
cd /system/app
rm Superuser.apk
cd ..
cat /sdcard/flash_image > flash_image
chmod 0700 flash_image
./flash_image recovery /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/Stock/recovery.img
rm flash_image
mount -o ro,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
exit

unroot your phone via universal androot and uninstall it via the applications menu

reboot and done!

I have done this a couple times and every time it worked like a charm.

I've had the same problem. I have made the gold card a million times (worked rooting the phone) and now it tells me the older error. Thought it would be easier reverting back, guess that's not true.

Anyways, can I get the flash_image file?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Darklordzim:
getting past the "older version" error

what i did to get past the "older version" error, was this:

step1: re-use gold card and the 1.5 version sappimg.zip from unlockr.com

step2: reboot using the original sappimg for t-mobile (i wont link from the post but i found it on XDA aka use search)

this will reload EVERYTHING as stock MT3g1.2 including original splash, and recovery images.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] lbcoder:
The safer way is to NOT BOTHER.

The update schedule is to run from today through the 25th inclusive. That's 11 days. The average length of time that any particular user will have to wait is therefore 5.5 days. Chances are that the update will be posted by tonight or tomorrow (latest), and 10 minutes later, it will be fixed so that it doesn't rob you of root (keep your options open!).

So... you save about 5 days of waiting (average) and end up with your options wide open. OR, you can commit to the average and end up locked out, possibly forever.

Need eng spl

just got through doing the same thing tried goldcard method and still got main version older....then i got it right...flash eng spl i beleive it was 0010 then do the sappimg.zip it works and when you finish the update your 0013 spl is back...then used universal androot installed superuser then installed rom manager and made backup of stock then put my phone back the way it was hopefully when the update comes out and i do think it will be a long time before it does i can restore backup of stock unroot with universal androot and uninstall superuser. At least thats the plan. If you want to do this look for kennys posts in the sappimg thread his directions are what i used.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mistere372002:

I can tell you 100% completely that the JPD link from Samsung's FUS (Firmware Update Service) is in fact the JPC everyone has... mislabeled file or firms not revision bumped take your pick but from the information I have that link (which I posted yesterday) is JPC. So its all cool... y'all can relax :)

P.S. the only (easy) way to use those direct links is to feed the (specific) key to the FUScrypt.dll included with KIES and decrypt it... unless you happen to have the tool to do this then its not so handy anyway :)

[Galaxy S I9000 General] asgard:
Actually I have just come up with a very sneaky way to force/fool KIES into installing that firm without screwing with the registry or dropping to test mode... and without any need to decode the .enc, its really quite simple.

Its a bit "naughty"/sneaky... let me think on this for a few mins, its a bit LOL... I'm sure someone else has already done it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dan 6a:
wouldnt it be worth installing to find the build time though? Where are you determining the type was made? I mean inside the archive it may say JPC and that was the mistake... I am not sure why the kies would return JPD unless samsung have changed something.. It seems like it would be worth uploading the contents for people to at least install, at worst it is a JPC fw yeah?

Or if you can determine the build time without installing then I apologise, I am not a tech head :)
