I wouldn't mind having menu long press go to the dialer app so we can have a dedicated dialer button we can use when we have other apps open. Long pressing the menu button brings up the quick search bar which we already have a button for.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] junkdruggler:
long pressing the menu button brings up the keyboard ... not the search...
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] moonrock:
Long press of menu brings up search on the vibrant, try it. (i read another thread that this isn't the same on other devices)

I assume that given that Vlingo can take over the long press of the search and home replacements can take over the long press of home, an app could be written to take over the long press of home to change its action as well?

I'm not a programer so I wouldn't have a clue of how to write an app that replaces that home/recent apps pop up to allow your own choice of shortcuts ;)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] junkdruggler:
Oh yeah, I guess I was wrong... I have to many devices to keep track of the differences...
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] moonrock:
I *kind-of* got what I wanted via the app "App Launcher" (link: http://www.appbrain.com/app/net.talondesigns.quicklaunch - $1.99)

It looks identical to the popup that you get with a long press of the home button - you can select the shortcuts you want to be in it, BUT it is a long press of the search key instead. Functionally, it is what I want, but I'd prefer to take over the home button action rather than using the search button, as I had that one assigned to Vlingo. ;)

Hello to all,

I have seen that still some persons providing newest and best ROMs for Benq E72. Can anyone please resolve issues Fring compatibility with E72????? please please.. I know one of you can....

In my 1st experience initially GSM becomes off when Fring VOIP start. But know with Benq Unlock enable/disable tweak, this solve but another problem start. Fring to Fring VOIP perfect. Fring (SIP) I can not hear caller but my voice can hear by caller.

Strange this never happen with fresh installation and problem start after rebooting Fring.

Thanks

You've got the myTouch 3G 1.2 (with the 3.5mm jack) which means you can't use a different radio/SPL or else things break. Root with the above method and then flash CyanogenMod. Use this link to download your ROM and the Google Add-on package. You don't need to download anything else from the second post beside the 5.0.8-DS and ERE36 (Google Addon). Download those first, then follow the guide from the first link.

[Droid Incredible Accessories] LosAngeles:
Hello all, I just got a droid incredible and I'm super disappointed with the battery life, I had a moto droid and got this phone as a replacement, the battery drains sooooo quickly its pretty ridiculous, HTC could've easily popped in a 1500 mah battery for us. Well anyways, I was looking for a replacement battery for the inc.

Paying 50 dollars for a battery is unacceptable in my eyes, I just want to use the standard case but have a little extra boost.

I found these on ebay:

cgi.ebay.com/High-Quality-Battery-Sprint-HTC-Evo-4G-1800mAh-x2-/250660990012?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item3a5c8f2c3c#ht_3148wt_807

wondering if anyone has tried them out? you can buy one for 7 bucks so I think it's a good deal just to try them out for awhile and see if they perform well. I'll be ordering some soon and post my results.

Anyone else thinking about these batteries or already purchased one?
[Droid Incredible Accessories] mexicanigga:
Any cheap battery from china always dies super fast after a couple of weeks .....i know because I bought like 7 batteries from china and they all sucked. The ones for my incredible die in an hour of playing with it and my blackberry storm battery wouldn't even stay on the night I left it off the charger... ..don't but batteries from china......
[Droid Incredible Accessories] xtremebrdr:
just remember you get what you paid for. generally cheap batteries from overseas might last you a week maybe less. like the post before mine. id hafta agree 100% with him. those batteries are that cheap for a reason. get a quaility battery that works with the phone. their are many posts on here in reguards to what batteries work and what dont. take a look around.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] tdiman:
I second this - not for phones, but we bought some super cheap chinese batteries off amazon for our canon camera. THey lose their charge in less than a week of non-use. Basically useless for backup batteries.

Oh awesome thanks for the replies, maybe ill just get the seidio 1750 then or the HTC 1500. Thanks again

There is a seller on ebay selling a legit 1500 htc battery for 15$. I can't find the thread cuz I'm on my phone but if I search on here you should find it. There was a recent post with the link in another battery thread. I have one and I'm super happy with it

[Droid Incredible Accessories] Gornul:
I have one of those, and routinely get 4-5 hours of active use out of it. 18 up/5 awake just yesterday.

Also remember to charge the battery while the phone is OFF for maximum charge, if you plan to use it to full capacity.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] mihneagabriel:
Yeah I get about 24 up and 10 awake but I'm using an underclocked setcpu profile. And I normally leave 3g on, play games, tons of texts and always on the web.

Thanks for the eBay link.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] quepaso:
I have one of those 3000mah batterys from ebay, like 12 shipped. The rear case turns the incredible from a phone into a phone/hockey puck hybrid. Its awesome. I get amazing battery life. With mild usage, ive gone 52 hours on a single charge (bump charged). Yesterday, i spoke on the phone for ~2 hours, played mp3s on the phone connected to a sound system for ~4 hours, plus lots of text, LOTS of playing Angry Birds, uploading pictures to flickr and more, and when i got home i had 62% still. Love it.

Before 3 hours of good use and battery was toast on stock battery.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] gedster314:
Avoid the Seidio 1750 battery. Someone on Android Central did a discharge test of the HTC 1500 and the Seidio battery and the results came back almost identical. Seidio claims their battery gets better after a few charges but if both use the same chemistry then so will the HTC 1500. I'm not saying that the Seidio is a bad battery just saying its over priced. Just look for an OEM Touchpro2 1500mah battery.

FYI: I bought a Seidio battery before I read the thread. I'm not upset just next time I will do more research before being from them again.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] LosAngeles:
I bought the HTC OEM 1500. They're available on eBay and Amazon for $15 or less available in red and black =P so far its a lot better than the 1300. Good info in the forum
[Droid Incredible Accessories] rabbiporkchop:
I bought a Chinese 3500mah extended battery from a guy in Hong Kong on EBay for 10 bucks, and my phone lasts all day with moderate usage versus only lasting 4 or 5 hours with the stock battery.

I'm still going to get the seidio 3500 just because it comes with a nicer back.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] DeaconBoogie:
I think it's hit and miss with Chinese-made batteries...

For example, last year I bought four Chinese generic li-ion batteries for my Canon DSLR. When I moved, I misplaced two of the batteries. I found them about two months ago and they still had three out of three bars of charge (could be anywhere from 100%-67% charge, not sure). But that was not bad, I thought, for sitting idle, off the charger, for eight months.

I also picked up a generic 9-cell battery for my Dell XPS last year. $20. It still, a year later, can run the laptop for a good four hours or so. Solid battery.

But, I've seen evidence on this site and others about Chinese manufacturing of counterfeit batteries and memory cards and other devices that will give me reason to think twice in the future... The gent at http://batteryboss.org/ will open your eyes pretty quickly. There are even photos of batteries with their plastic casing, which states 1500mah, only having an 1100mah cell. Ridiculous.

I've searched through these forums/threads to try and find out how to improve battery life when using Android from SD card. Even when the screen is off for almost the whole time, my battery will only last about 6 hours. Contrast this with WM6.1 when my battery lasts 4 days.

I have turned off data. (I've also read in places to turn off "background" data, but I'm not sure how to do that? I've not seen an option to do that anywhere - I'm using Incubus froyo)

What is draining the battery, and how do I get it to last longer?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
you know if your going to post a thread complaining about something the least you could do is tell us anything about the set up your running

what nbh are you using?

what build are you using?

are you using a vogue, kaiser, or polaris?

also a forum search for this question would probably go a long way too
[Touch CDMA Android Development] joelshort:
I did not mean to sound like I was complaining...I'm just searching for solutions to this issue. As I stated previously, I have searched through the forums and have tried to do some of the things suggested to increase battery life, but it hasn't helped much.

I have a Vogue, running off SD card. I'm using the latest haret and Incubus Froyo (v. 16 I think).

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

My apologies, I am actually using SagaRom's RLS4 froyo ultralite, NOT incubus' build.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
try using a zimage not based on the 2.6.32 kernel its still considered very experimental and i know they were having issues with the console not actually sleeping.

running froyo with data on and heavy use i used to get about a day out of my phone using the old kernel give it a shot
[Touch CDMA Android Development] joelshort:
Thank you, I'll give it a try. I seemed to me that although the screen would go off, the battery life was acting like it never actually went to sleep, so what you say about 2.6.32 not sleeping makes sense to me.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] joelshort:
Thanks thoughtlesskyle, that was definitely the problem. I rolled back to a previous version, and the battery life is much better.

good luck
[Touch CDMA Android Development] joelshort:
I don't use my phone all that much, and I don't have data so that adds up to long battery life. When the phone was new I could go almost a week without charging!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] lordcalin:
I can agree to that, I never use my vogue... it's only use to me is so family can call me locally (moved and never changed the number on it), with WM6.1 and 6.5 I could go 4-5 days before it needed to be plugged in. When I first flashed donut I'd get 8 hours with data on, and could go 24 hours with it off, now with froyo it dosn't matter what's on or off 8-10 hours is it... tho I will say i'm out of date on kernel and image (using inc's v11, and kernel from july since that's the last one i've seen supporting 320x480)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] ckl_88:
Too bad you require the higher res because the latest nbh and rls15 has greatly improved battery life. I get at least what your getting in terms of battery time, however, I have google background data to sync my email, calendar and contacts and I use it during the day to check my RSS feeds, write some emails, make some phone calls, and play some board games.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] vellowax:
Do you use the latest nbh or the 26-7-10.nbh ?

Btw, anybody have already tried Incubus Super Froyo 10.5 and rls15, which one have a better battery life ?

I was using the latest one. (ie. voguimg-240x320-2.6.32-froyo-08-09-10_17.nbh and I'm currently using the 09-09 version too).

I've tried both 10.5 and 15 and I would say that both are very similar in terms of battery usage.

So I removed the htclockscreen.apk with titanium backup, but for some reason TB didn't backup the app its self, only the apps data... so I can't just restore it with TB. However I sent the file to my email so that I would have a back up copy in case something dumb happened like this. So my question is how do I reinstall the htclockscreen.apk back on to my phone?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Philosuffer:
Since you have the original apk still, you can use root explorer (on the phone itself) or adb.

With root explorer, just copy/cut the apk, navigate to /system/app/ make sure to press the Mount as R/W button and then paste the apk and reboot.

Using adb, do:

adb remount

adb push htclockscreen.apk /system/app

adb reboot
