[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gothpunk4christ:
I think you just got lucky ;) *

I order to give good audio quality, the jacks need to be snug, better connection. I've seen many instances where I'd need to replace headphone jacks in computers because they wouldn't snap in firmly and not make good connections. If you held it at the right angle, music would play, but not without crackling and popping occasionally.

I have no clue if there are any apps. I imagine that would be more a limitation on the plug portion than the programs. The Aria did it, but I know there are particular types of headphones that have them built in that speicifically will/will not work with the phone. Just have to try.

*that's what I said. Just now. See, I said it. Earlier in the post. First line. See?

does MMs work? If yes im switching to this one
[Droid Eris Android Development] 5thAgent:
As long as this is going to be actively developed to make wifi and camera function, I'll flash this today. I waited over a month for proper camera on KaosFroyo way back at like v11. I'm willing to give this a shot with some reassurance that this project won't be orphaned immediately.
[Droid Eris Android Development] ThorSkaagi:
So are there any differences between this and Tazz's at the moment?
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
should be only the chineese but not for long:D thanx bro
[Droid Eris Android Development] tenzomonk:
yes, MMS works :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] tenzomonk:
just an FYI... if things go "well" ... there will be a functioning camera sometime tonight ;)

edit: oh, and i don't plan on going anywhere :) still have this phone for at least 9 months... ;)

So glad I just got on to xda!

[Q] What are your views on making a Tainted Froyo? I helped Hoban a bit with the original Tained rom, and I will do anything you ask to work on a 2.2 taint.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tenzomonk:
ha, that was the very first thing i thought of!!!

i'm currently testing a few things out... seems like there may be a few of us doing this port... so i'd like to make it stand out in some way :)

not sure if i'd prefer to Taint it... or RCMix it ;)
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
im mixing mine up to bro lol as soon as we can make these thing work correct ,, no need to have them all the same :D
[Droid Eris Android Development] tbaker077:
Anyway you can post some screen shots? Also do you think you can somehow add the Evil Eris color scheme and that orange theme(from your other to a port of this)? Thank you.

I want to be sure, MMS is working right?
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
if u have seen a 2.1 rom then u have already seen this, unless he themed it already haah
[Droid Eris Android Development] Stonent:
I flashed the Chinese one earlier and played w/ it for about 10 minutes and then flashed back to KaosFroyo. But I eagerly await the next few days where this just blows up with people working on it.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tbaker077:
I thought maybe some of the backgrounds and app icons maybe different.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
therre are some different apps but it looks the same
[Droid Eris Android Development] SikYou:
RCMix it! That would be bad a$$. I talked to tazz about getting wifi going and I was going to look at the camera as well, I'll see what comes up. What else isn't working?

ok so im always speeding through my laptop in my g2 and always loved the speed and horsepower it has but this morning officer t-mobile pulled me over and gave me a ticket (sms) telling me that i went over the speed limit of 5gb per month and that ive been throttled. well being worried, i tried going through laptop again and to tell you, as long as i have v8 (3g or hspa) i have no noticable speed governor. to further the investigation, i went to several webcam websites like chatroulette and such and still dont really feel throttled at all. just wanted to share that with you guys. :-)

[Desire HD General] Black1982:
Since the previous thread on battery life was merged with other threads on totally different topics, I've opened this thread as a place to share tips and experience regarding battery life. I've little time the coming 48 hours, but I will update this thread and make a collection of tips to improve battery life!

So I've taken some measurements to be able to give a more objective analysis!

I've used OSMonitor Goto menu/options/filter (dmesg) Tag filter [D:BATT] for battery readings The I= the battery drain in mAh.

I also used signal strenght info from settings/about phone/network. I used Extended Controls to keep my screen on during the test and control data etc.

I want to use these results as a reference to determine "normal battery drain" and to determine how different variables affect battery life. It would be best to test this on "out of the box setup' to eleminate influence from other aps. I didn't want to hard reset so I guess I've sinned against science. Another variable I've not eliminated is the amount of RAM being used, and this could be important. I'm not perfect

To compare results it would be best to perform test the same as I did. If anyone has a better idea for a test please say so! It would be perfect if some devoloper could make an app that does al these test automaticaly! It would be a great benchmarking tool!

Results so far:

*Standby

3 mAh (on G, data off)

*Screen Brightness

Screen brightness 0% : ~82 mAh (airplane mode on, everything turned off)

Screen brightness 100%: ~200 (idem)

To compare with brightness 0% my Old Touch pro uses 63 mAh with its tiny screen

(Airplane mode, Brightness 0%)

275 MB ram Free: 75-80 mAh

185 MB ram Free: 75-80 mAh

*Network and GPS

All with 0% brightness

G (GSM only): 82 mAh (data off, everything off) - 83db 15 ASU

3G (GSM/ WCDMA Auto): 85 (data Off, eveything off) -85db 13 ASU

Wifi Connected (Wireless G, Full Signal strength, router in the same room) : 150 (sync off, background data off, everything off)

GPS: 125 (GPS Test, airplane mode, everthing off)

*Gaming

Asphalt 5: 310 (airplane mode, everthing off)

Draw your own conclusions! To be continued!

Funny i was looking for the old thread! Jus to put a note on it 11 hours since unplugged. Hasnt past 50% battery life yet. Had wifi on all day with hourly sync. Using this morning for XDA forums viewing for about 1 hour. Some bluetooth and as it stands the battery thing shows this.

Display 60%

Android System 15%

Android OS 12%

Cell Standby 6%

Phone idle 5%

Wifi 2%

Note i dont have 3g turned on yet as my provider hasnt given me the internet add on yet.
[Desire HD General] Basil3:
Well it's now at the stage where I've had my phone for a week, so the battery has had a few good cycles and should have settled down.

I'm still looking for the elusive whole day without a top up charge, doing the things I used to do on my hero.

Things I'm currently trying: Syncing facebook and other non essential things (to me) once a day, 2g only, and running Juicedefender. I also have screen brightness set manually to a lowish level, and have stopped vibration feedback on the keyboard....

Will see what tomorrow brings.
[Desire HD General] Doktaphex:
I stopped vibration feedback after day one and have had no problems with battery since, I had completely forgotten about that though. I have a feeling you will be smiling tomorrow. If you think about it having to provide constant stabs of electricity to start a motor all the time must be a huge drain.
[Desire HD General] Basil3:
That's what I'm thinking. I would send 100+ Google talk messages a day. All that tapping and vibrating must eat the battery a bit.
[Desire HD General] Noxis:
I've disabled it for the on screen keyboard, is there any other place it needs to be disabled? Like for the Home keys at the bottom?
[Desire HD General] DarrenT:
oddly there is another vibrate option under sound settings, right at the bottom there is an option for Vibrate Feedback when pressing onscreen buttons.

I've been running the Energy ROM for awhile now on my TMO USA HD2. All of a sudden I am not getting the sound from my notifications when I receive a new email,text, or SMS. Any ideas
[HD2 General] Ryan79:
Get the simple question out first... did you check your notification settings?

(move the slider to settings, select Sound & Display, then select Notification Sounds)
[HD2 General] mbscuba:
Yes. I turned all notifications of and then back on. I've even changed the sounds. And also, rebooted a ton.
[HD2 General] someeh:
Try a reflash
[HD2 General] mbscuba:
I eventually just re-flashed.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrjeancw:
no, flash the clockwork recovery from rom manager then it should be able to be selected.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fmedina2:
I meant rom manager not clockwork. The area to flash am alternative recovery is in gray.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bizdady:
Reflash clockwork in Rom manager then that will ungrey Flash Alternative option.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Suunto:
Hello,

I really like the automatic brightness feature, but IMO it doesn't get nearly dim enough in dark situations. Is there a way to adjust the threshold/range of the auto brightnes levels to minimum? I search the registry for it with no results. It would be great to play with HD2 at night with no additional settings even if it won't bright to 100% in direct sun.

Thanks,

Suunto

I think G-Light from ageye is what you are looking for.

I used it when i was under windows mobile and it did exactly what i needed.

[Streak 5 General] kapakra:
Ok guys heres my situation.

Im on my third streak, the first one the earpiece stopped working, the second one had the stick slide to unlock, i got my third one today (o2 very kindly gave me a second battery and back cover!)

But im annoyed to see that this new one still has the sticky slide to unlock. I know there are some apps i can use to get round it, but it seems a bit odd for such a device to make it hard to answer calls!!

Anyone know why this happens, is it a hardware thing or is it the rom?

Or any advice what i can do, its on contrat from o2, anything i can do?

Thanks
[Streak 5 General] Fazziebear:
I'm just guessing but it seems to be a that the screen just becomes un responsive. I can use the side buttons but I can't get the touch screen to work. almost as though its been disabled.

this happens less with 2.2 and I use the menu unlock from knobs. it means that I hardly notice it these days.
[Streak 5 General] gilrad:
I have read many people have this problem as a result of keepingthe phone in their pants. Something about the screen being in a constant discharging state that messes with its accuracy.
[Streak 5 General] kapakra:
Yea I guess that makes sense, but where do Dell want us to keep it!

Any way to stop this happening?
[Streak 5 General] gilrad:
Well I use a holster for mine. Considering the reports of 'pants stress' cracking the lcd underneath the glass, I don't want to take any chances. Plus it makes a nice fashion statement :)
[Streak 5 General] ipguy:
i had the same problem with the sticky slide to unlock, i'm on the o2 2.1 release, i fixed it by rooting the device and editing the build.prop file. look for build.prop under system, search inside and find "debug.sf.hw=0" and change to "debug.sf.hw=1" ...no more sticky slide to unlock

if your on 1.6, you might want to try the same.
[Streak 5 General] jnaldaco:
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

I sometimes have the sticky slide to unlock problem, I'm on Stephen Hyde's 2.2 has anybody tried this, editing the build.prop file, for the 2.2
[Streak 5 General] royalmail:
hmm... seems i am not alone. I have encountered exactly the same problem. the top bar of screen become sticky after i keep the device in the back pocket.

i am going back to the O2 shop and try to get it fixed or exchanged...

the conclusion is ---never keep it in the back pocket!?
[Streak 5 General] futurama:
FWIW. i had the same problem. Took my screen protector off it hasn't happened since then although im still curious as to why i never had this problem with 1.6. Lets just hope its resolved in 2.2 then i can put another screen protector on
[Streak 5 General] royalmail:
my one is on 2.1. no protector on at all.

i just return it to the O2 shop. the guy told me they need to return it for repair.

i just wondering how will they repair it??? Hope i will get another brand new device from them at the end. Or get it fixed without charging me anything...

need to wait for maximum 10 days for a call from the shop...
[Streak 5 General] kapakra:
Mine was in for 'repair' I got it back one week after putting it in, it was a different phone.

But it's still just the same.

I'm going into o2 tomorrow to see what I can do, I'm going to try to change it for a different phone, maybe a hd7
[Streak 5 General] ipguy:
Just root your phone and follow the steps above to edit your build.prop

U can unroot the phone when your done if you choose
[Streak 5 General] royalmail:
what is the rational behind it? why have to make the change? why it work before without the change?

i will ask for model change as well if the problem can't be fixed by O2.
[Streak 5 General] ipguy:
1.6 has the option enabled.

2.1 and 2.2 don't

By enabling the option android will use the phones GPU for graphic nit its CPU
[Streak 5 General] lpcity34:
Well I don't agree with the pocket thing. When I was on 1.6 never had issue with it being in pocket. When went to 2.1 is when it all started. 2.1 was horrible with 2.2 being slightly better. As far as editing build prop mine is already set to 1 not 0 so that must not be the problem either. Has to be something in the code somewhere or 1.6 would have had same issue.
[Streak 5 General] kapakra:
I just thought id update this with what's going on now.

I went up to the o2 store in Glasgow and spoke with them, they told me to ring customer services so that they could escalate my problem, when i phoned they told me that the stare has to do it. So I handed my phone to the guy in the o2 shop.

The short of it is that the only way forward (unless i want my 4th streak!) was to put a complaint in and the store manager will 'look into it'

One interesting point is that two of the staff told me that its a known fault!! Dell have admitted there is problem, of course o2 blamed dells software until I said that I was using the o2 2.1 rom (the guy quickly changed the subject)

I will be paying them a visit on Monday again.
[Streak 5 General] royalmail:
Here is my update: after 3 days including weekend, I got my replacement back. it's a new one. Which make me believe DELL didn't spend anytime for repair. Seems they just replace it for me straightaway. I agree that 'it's known issue for DELL'

I got extra back cover and battery! :-)

the ROM version is 1.6 which disapoint me a little bit. offical 2.2 is coming anyway...I will hold my horse for the upgrade this time. just to rule out the rom issue.
[Streak 5 General] NoDoze:
Is this in reference to the debug.sf.hw...?

...Wouldn't you WANT the GPU for graphics, and NOT the CPU...?

Isn't that the purpose of the GPU...?

I'm on 2.2, enabled debug.sf.hw and the issue is resolved.

No sticky slider. No side affects. No performance change.

...untill I hear a valid reason...it stays ;)
[Streak 5 General] The Jack of Clubs:
the crap did that do? its fixed more than the issue with my sticky slide to unlock. i had an issue when a dialog would make that fadey background thing, the phone would slow down horrifically but this fixed that. im quite happy now, knowing not what that actually fixes.
[Streak 5 General] ipguy:
There seems to be more to the problem

After weeks of faultless operation, I started noticing a sticky slider again, also weird touch screen behaviour

After clearing all caches and restarting the phone, I'm all good again.

I think 2.1 was just hobbled together

Bring on 2.2
[Streak 5 General] ipguy:
Clearing the application cache fixes it every time.

Hi people. Haven't been here in ages though I used to visit this forum on a daily basis in the past.

Anyway, I came back for old times' sake and see that people are still using this phone. :) It's a rather old model.

It's a rather cool phone at that time, waited a long time and got it with my first paycheck. Turned out to be a rather horrible experience and now I am happily with iPhone and considering changing to WP7 because MS > Apple. ^^

Anyway, back to the thread title. Why are you guys still using this phone?

[XPERIA X1 General] 'Tron:
It's great - once you learn how to drive it.

Love the optical mouse & the slide out Keyboard.

I've found an app to suit my every purpose (TomTom, SPB News for RSS, & Pocket Player, & G-Alarm).

Currently using the Sony Ericsson Panel, which displays all the info I need; two analogue clocks, weather for two cities (only current temp and conditions - don't need a five day forecast on my home screen), calendar, messages etc.

I've tried a couple of different ROMs, but have gone back to basics with the 6.1.

^ which is why I like the look of the new Windows Phone 7. Good simple layout.

The home screen is really important to me - which an iPhone doesn't even have.

I will consider the WP7 if the tile screen can be customise to what I want… & if the handsets are any good.

because I am the boss of my SD cards and can put you want

because it is small and has a great battery

because some things are done with a custom rom that you can not even I win7

because the phone has a hardware button on phone off

simply because it has nothing on this planet

perhaps X2 but it does not have hard spl

Would like to have a new phone, but they are too expencive. Dont want to give a mobile phone lot of money anymore.
[XPERIA X1 General] sonus:
My reasons mirror Tom's exactly. I'm lazy. My X1 works, it has music, navigation, activesync, and office available to me, and I can't be bothered right now to make sure that whatever I upgrade to has alternatives for everything I use.

I'm not even using a custom ROM anymore. I just use the panels to change the face whenever I get bored or need a task specific homescreen (like On-the Road Panel when I'm driving or Skype Panel when I'm abroad).

My X1 is a lot faster and more stable than when I was running 6.5 on the phone. As for switching to another platform... in good time. I had an iPhone and gave it away... this was before decent navigation apps and multiasking were available on the iPhone.
[XPERIA X1 General] nurps:
There is no alternative isnt there? Win7 sucks. There are some other devices with the same CPU so not really a step up. There is just no 1ghz hardware keyboard Win Mobile device available. So why shouldnt people still use the X1?
