[Desire Themes and Apps] _Dennis_:
I'm running RCMix v0.8 and settings, sound, vibration feedback (at the very bottom) turns off vibrate in dialer (phone from bottom bar on home screen)
[Desire Themes and Apps] z0mbi3:
I can post the unmodified dialer you could flash back with.

I'm not familiar with that form. Does it use the HTC dialer or the standard google dialer?
[Desire Themes and Apps] LBTaylor1984:
HTC Dialer.
[Desire Themes and Apps] z0mbi3:
Well I'm stumped then. As far as I know (other posts here confirming it) you can't disable it from settings within Leedroid and a google search returns the same for the stock rom.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IceBone:
A friend and I both have a desire, updated to the latest version of Android and running 5.09 radio. Neither of us use it extensively and I can get easily through the day on a charge, mostly having upwards of 30% battery charge left when I go to bed, while his can barely do 8 hours before needing a recharge.

He's already taken it to the store to have it looked at once and it came back performing the same.

I've been looking at his currentwidget log and the consumption seems fine to me, however the battery drain is much larger than I'd expect in return.

http://pastebin.com/0Crvm1xR

Anyone have any idea what's going on? Please help!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harish.awe:
Are you two using same ROMs..??
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IceBone:
I'm rooted, he's not, but I'm using basically the same thing. My battery usage hasn't changed, while upgrading from 2.1 to 2.2, his hasn't either. But his has been crap from the beginning.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ferrol:
Swap phones for a few days. Perhaps he's in an area where by reception is poor compared to you. The phone would use more power trying to get a better signal?

Sent using XDA App
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpSpin:
Does he play games all the time? Does he use GPS, Bluetooth, WLAN? And you?

how does it perform in airplane mode?

Install Android System Info and take a look at the task list, CPU load should hover around 10-20% after a few seconds. If it's higher find the task and report back.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IceBone:
He said if he just leaves it on the shelf with sync disabled, no calls and no notifications, it gets 12 hours tops. I get 48 like that.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xander_aa:
Does he use Live Wallpaper? I found out that if I use a plain picture instead of live wallpaper, the power drain is much lower.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IceBone:
Has anyone even looked at the currentwidget log?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] th3:
Yep, and you're losing battery very fast in what looks to be an idle phone. Every few minutes the power drain is shooting up for a period and then fluctuating to higher than it should be in idle (between 7-70mA drain in idle means the phone isn't idle). Many services and widgets that are known as power hungry seem to be running too. Due to the logging limitations, I can't see if they are the ones causing power fluctuations or otherwise.

I mean, have you done any one hour experimentation with cell on vs. cell off to see the battery loss differences?

What about cell off, display off for an hour vs. cell on, display on for an hour - what are the percentage drops in both cases for the device?

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IceBone:
Can't really test like that, since he lives 150kms away. I'll see if he can lend the phone to me for a few days and I'll run both in an as identical manner as I can.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] th3:
If people like andycted and bemymonkey have much spare time to reply, that would help you much since I consider them more expert in this area (they know far more than me).

Calibrate the battery?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Therev29:
Posted this on Android Forums, figured I'd post it here for anyone that needs it!

I've been seeing a lot of users new to emulators in general having no idea where to begin, and me, watching for updates, also saw a lot of unhappy users not able to get it set up. I love gaming and figured others new to the emulator / android scene could use a little help. So i created this guide. I have it on google docs. and also uploaded it to media-fire as a pdf.

I feel if more people understood how it works, and get it running, they would stop yelling and flaming the developer, all thats going to do is discourage him and make him stop supporting PSX4Droid!!

Constructive ideas are welcome!

Feel free to spread this around if needed, as long as credit is given.

Thanks alot. i am a total noob to this and appreciate this.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Therev29:
Not a prob man.

Let me know if you still have any questions when you're done
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] xaronax:
Hey

I highly recommend removing the link to the BIOS file from your document. This only leads to trouble/post locking/problems from Sony. They really are that anal about it.

Kudos for the excellent guide though.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Therev29:
Good Call, I've seen it in a few other guides, but if this guide gets around to the majority of the users, then i could see Sony flagging it.

I left it in the bios section but removed the direct download in the step by step.

If it becomes a problem I'll remove that too.

[Windows Phone 7 General] djcaston:
Hey Guys,

So I was trying to think, but I couldn't remember which carrier it was, but I'm almost positive that one of the Australian carriers uses the same 3g bands (HSDPA 850 and 1900) that AT&T uses, meaning you could import one of the phones heading toward that carrier in australia and use it on AT&T. I was thinking about doing this for WP7, but i completely forgot what carrier it is.

Does anyone know?
[Windows Phone 7 General] matthewf01:
Telstra.

I've used a Telstra-branded HD2 and Desire (Android) on AT&T in the US, no problem.

I'm hoping Telstra picks up the Desire HD and the HD7 as well...because AT&T's WP7 phones are kinda sorry (nothing > 3.8").
[Windows Phone 7 General] uhno:
It's Telstra. Only the 850 band is supported. I have an Australian 9193 HD2 and it works fine on At&t. I guess it depends if your area has 850 band nearby.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Goatmaster:
FYI their HD7 won't be out till next year.

http://www.istartedsomething.com/20101012/australian-pricing-options-for-windows-phone-7/
[Windows Phone 7 General] djcaston:
Are you guys sure? I was looking at the Mozart page on Telstra and it's doesn't say that the 850 hsdpa band is supported.

http://www.microsoft.com/windowsphone/en-au/buy/7/phones.aspx#detail=1573&filter=166
[Windows Phone 7 General] djcaston:
The Focus is 4". Idk if you were just talking about HTC or not
[Windows Phone 7 General] FSB:
http://exchange.telstra.com.au/2010/10/12/windows-phone-7-a-new-challenger-arrives/

This says it is 850 band here
[Windows Phone 7 General] djcaston:
Thanks! HTC & Microsoft must be using the global specs. So basically what this means is Mozart and HD7 for AT&T!! I'm pumped as hell now
[Windows Phone 7 General] FSB:
Will hopefully have a Telstra one in the next week or two, will confirm when I have it.
[Windows Phone 7 General] djcaston:
Which one are you getting? The Mozart? I'm stuck between the Surround directly from AT&T or waiting for the HD7 on Telstra. I just have no idea when it's actually going to come out...
[Windows Phone 7 General] chizzwhizz:
I'm having this same predicament also. Though I can afford it, getting an HD7 through telstra will be around $800 or more...whereas I could just get the surround for retail value since I am not extending my contract with ATT.
[Windows Phone 7 General] FSB:
I have my Mozart

WP7 is very different there is no way, that I can find, to look at the band it is using.

It is very fast and I'm liking it.
[Windows Phone 7 General] aethelbert:
It can only use the 850mhz band and 2100mhz. If you want NextG you'll need the 850mhz band (AT&T's). I can guarantee the Telstra HTC Mozart uses that.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Biggzz:
Any updates on HD7 on At&t? Perhaps an unbranded one or tmobile. Data and 3g?
[Windows Phone 7 General] mei_liberi_fatali:
Above is 100% true

850MHz & 2100MHz at minimum.

Optus uses 900MHz and 2100MHz

Unsure about the other carriers, but its likely 900/2100 also (i think Telstra is the odd one out here)
[Windows Phone 7 General] iusauser:
Sorry for revive the old thead; buy if someone is looking for a at&t-compatible device, (with UMTS850/1900), more than at&t "native" devices; please check:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdanko:
It seems to me that the memory layout on the Captivate isn't in line with other Android devices.

Looking at the specs of the Captivate on www.google.com/phone I am seeing:

RAM: 512 MB

Internal Storage: 16000 MB

Yet in looking at "SD card and phone storage" in settings I see.

Internal phone storage, Available space: 1.60 GB

Internal SD card: 13.03 GB

It seems to me that the 16000 MB is partitioned so here are my questions.

1) Where is the 512 MB and what is it for?

2) Why is it if I install some app that is supposed to show me external SD usage it always instead shows that 13 GB internal flash volume?

And in a broader sense...

3) What is the general memory model for Android? I see RAM, Internal, External. What are they all for?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] charging rhinos:
I'm not sure, but of that internal 16gb of storage space, is it merely partitioning a section of that away for the OS?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdanko:
That is my question. I don't understand the memory model.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] catire:
This might not be accurate since I don't own an android phone but i'm bored :p

System Ram, used by the OS and apps as volatile memory.

Because the 13gb volume is the "general" volume where you can personally store whatever you want, it functions just like an external Sd card would.

Ram - It is for the OS and apps, they need that as volatile storage to function, nothing is really stored there in the long term, the OS manages that so don't worry about it.

Internal memory - This used for many things, app install and to store files like music, pictures, etc. Internal memory is usually partitioned so that you only have a set amount (probalby that 1.60 you see ) for apps install and the rest if for whatever you want(the 13gb).

External memory - That is just an SD card you can use to expand your internal memory, right now (Android 2.1) it only works to add more space for files(music, photos, docs,) but with with froyo (android 2.2) you'll be able to move installed apps to this external (and the internal 13gb) drive.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dave the Knave:
Ok here's how it's laid out.

Yes, we have 512MB of RAM. However we as the end user will only see around 300MB of that, give or take 20MB. That's because some of it used by the OS and the GPU for different tasks.

That 16GB of internal storage you see, is partitioned off. We actually get around 13GB to use for ourselves. That 1.6GB you also see starts off as around 2GB (I would assume), and the rest used by the system for the OS, apps, cache, etc...

It's just like a hard drive on a computer in that respect. Sure you but a 1TB hard drive, but you actually only get to use around 850GB of it due to formatting and whatnot.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Afake:
My problem is that I cant install apps in the 13gb partition, I dont know why..

I tried with:

adb shell pm setInstallLocation 0 this is Auto mode but.. installs in 1.8 partition

..........................................1 this install on the 1.8 partition

..........................................2 this install on the sd card

..........................................3 doesent exist xD but i tried..

so does exist any way to install apps for default in the 13.3 internal SD card partition, or any way to errase the partition??..
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diablo009:
Try using "apps2sd" from market. It should be app2sd or apps2sd.

But I don't understand the need to do this, given that Captivate has one of the best memory amounts allocated for system.

Also note that, the apps on SD won't be available during the times when apps like "media scanner" are running.
[HD2 General] chadvavra:
I have the HD2 on Tmobile in the US and have been using it, unlocked, with the web2go, Tzones, $9.99 plan for about a year and before that had a Kaiser for 2 years doing the same.

This morning my browser started automatically redirecting to a page telling me my plan is not compatible with my phone and demanding that I upgrade my plan.....

So much for having 2 lines, 700 minutes, unlimited data for $72.00 a month.

Has this happened to anyone else?
[HD2 General] du1sbo:
Same here at about 0800 hours, central time, i got the same message on the screen about my plan is not compatible with the phone, it keeps re-directing to that web2go page. :-( :-( :-( I have HD2 Tmo-us.
[HD2 General] clauswl:
same here, cc told me that their servers killed the service for smart phones. they gave me a reduced internet package for $20 instead.:(
[HD2 General] chadvavra:
I'm going to wait a day or two and see if things come back, but if not, what did you have to ask for to get the $20 internet package?
[HD2 General] d0ug:
Free lunch is over! Likely nothing you can do about this either, since it is likely detecting based off the IMEI of the phone, not only is there no known way to change the IMEI on the HD2, to do so would be illegal.
[HD2 General] d0ug:
The current $20 internet package offer is for "loyal" TMO customers. I am not sure how far you have to be into your contract to be considered a "loyal" customer, you may even have to have completed your contract and be out of contract. You likely also have to have had on time payments for a certain period of time if not for the entire duration of your contract.

Your best bet would be to call in and ask a CSR about the customer loyalty internet package, and if they claim to know nothing about it then ask to speak to retentions
[HD2 General] chadvavra:
I fit all of the conditions.

Thanks for the tips.
[HD2 General] Meteo:
I thought it was just me. Well, no reason to stick around with tmobile anymore
[HD2 General] mknewman:
I've got the same problem.
[HD2 General] chadvavra:
I'm usually quick to scream bloody murder and leave a company but this is different. We were taking advantage of a loop-hole that Tmobile was kind enough to be slow to fix. Even at $20 a month it's still cheaper than anything on Verizon or AT&T and doesn't require a new contract, I assume and hope (can anyone confirm that?)

I'm sticking with TMobile for now. Besides, I don't want to buy a new phone.
[HD2 General] ZetaiZetsubou:
yup it's over...

yup it's over...

however, it doesn't seem to only be affecting branded "smart" tmous devices.....

supposedly iphones, and n1s have had their tzones cut...

*it shows my msisdn in the url upgrade page* so perhaps it is just line based....

I might as well switch because i get crappy reception with tmous at my school... however their 3g speeds seem to be the fastest....no iphone users bogging down the 3g network lol...

but still, 20 dollar for unlimited data doesn't sound too bad....

as for cdma networks.....questionable...
[HD2 General] d0ug:
And what is switching going to get you? a data plan that at least costs $10 more than what TMO provides? usage caps, tethering restrictions and overage charges for data? and an overloaded network in the case of ATT or in the case of Sprint/VZ a network that cant provide simultaneous voice/data?
[HD2 General] rr5678:
Go to AT&T and pay for a capped data plan.

Or go to Sprint/Verizon and pay for a new CDMA phone
[HD2 General] ashasaur:
Sorry to say it...but about time. You guys have been mooching off of this for years, and T-Mobile finally cut you off. Seriously, you guys really have no room to complain that you now have to pay...GASP...13 DOLLARS MORE A MONTH!!! Think about it, you have been screwing T-Mobile for years, so you have saved enough to pay that extra money. And to the dude talking about leaving T-Mo...uhm...lol que? Like the others have said, feel free to go to another carrier with data caps, more expensive unlimited plans or even non-existent unlimited plans. Listen people, 20USD a month for UNLIMITED 2G/3G/4G(ish) data+UNLIMITED un hinderded tethering=a really damn good deal.
[HD2 General] chadvavra:
I don't think that taking advantage of a known loop-hole should be considered "screwing" them. Think of it like taxes, it's your duty as a citizen of the US to take advantage of as many tax breaks as you can, legally. If you pay too much to the IRS, they aren't likely to tell you.

And I don't really think I, or the others adding value to the thread are complaining. I'm just trying to make sure I don't wind up paying for something I don't need.
[HD2 General] kidrythm:
your post is filled with win, and smothered in awesome sauce!

whiners need to gtfo, tmo was not meant for you anyway...

:)
[HD2 General] rr5678:
Exactly.

Waah, you lost the $9.99 plan. Fine, leave T-Mobile. Have fun paying for tethering and dealing with data caps..
[HD2 General] Paten:
You guys who changed plans already should call back and get switched back. I still have my $5.99 T-Zones plan working fine with no browser redirects. It was some kind of maintenance snafu and all is normal now.

I know this horse has been beaten dead for a long time. But I have a quick question. Before I install a non-stock ROM to my Captivate I want to know one thing first and foremost. Can the stock ROM be restored... WITHOUT USING WINDOWS? I do not and will not own a Windows computer and I imagine there HAS to be a way to manage all of these ROMs without Windows.

Can someone point me to a download of a stock Captivate ROM that is simply the ROM file and not something rolled into an Odin executable?

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Softik_one:
Hi all,

so, I have 2 questions.

1. If it is possible to add custom applications to bottom sliding bar?

If yes, tell me how ;)

2. i have installed energy rom and my bottom bar have only "action" and "menu" options...everyone who have installed energy rom have start menu there in icon etc...

how to do that please? :confused:

i will really appreciate any help, thanx a lot

check attached images to know what the hell i am tallking about :D

some specifications:

OS - 5.2.21914

Manila - 2.5.20183025.0

Rom - Energy ROM - 28.Aug.2010 WWE
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] degake:
Hi,

To answer your questions:

1. No, you can't add custom programs to the sliding bar, as this slider is used to slide between the tabs of HTC Sense (only way to add custom programs is to make a custom manila tab (like e.g. facebook tab)).

2. I think you flashed a WM6.5 ROM instead of a WM6.5.x version...

This is why you have no windows button in the bottom softkey bar (as with this Windows Mobile version the start button is still on top ;))

I hope this helps.

Grtz,

Degake
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] m0bmentality:
Energys numbers are confusing right now.. you want 216XXX which is the amped up version that used to be 23XXXX based on 6.5.5 .. 219XXX which seems like the higher number , so you think its the the big dog.. is really the one that used to be 21XXXX which is based on 6.5 build.

So .. to answer your question FIRST.. switch to a 6.5.5 build. (216xxx)

Then your slider question... im about 99% sure you can.. which is funny because no one i know has, but if you can its not just point and click its some registry edit type stuff and changing alot of icons.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] m0bmentality:
P.s. the dude who just told you you CANT have custom slider tabs.. is one of the dudes on her who actually could. lol . now THATS irony :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Softik_one:
so many thanks for your replies!

... bad flashed rom :D is there some way to keep every settings etc. and then load them to new energy rom from 6.5 to 6.5.X? or i think the better way will be to wait for wp7 upgrade... maybe the microsoft will change theyr decision...or wait for developers to do it?!

what do u think? i have finally set up everything and now "new rom?" when do u think the stable version of wp7 will come?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] degake:
Hmm, you're asking for an ETA for a stable wp7 ROM for Leo?? :eek:

We haven't got a 100% perfect/stable WM6.5.x ROM, so I think it will be a long time before we have that kind of ROM :) (and WP7 sucks :D)

Grtz,

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Softik_one:
