Be Patient

Perhaps Samsung & Sprint want to make sure that FroYo is an "Epic" experience.

Before I got my Epic, I tried a Captivate. The wireless client was broken and would not work on some networks. I also could not adjust to the virtual keyboard.

I was concerned when I got my epic, but the wireless client had been fixed. My coworkers with Captivates are still broken. I understand that FroYo was released with wireless issues that have affected corporate users. (See "support/forum/p/android/thread?tid=7f71ff06702e39e1" from google's site)

Maybe Sprint wants to learn from the mistakes of others and get it right on the first try.

Sorry for the strange link - new user here.

Question about restoring apps suing Titanium. Titanium needs the 'Applications --> Unknown Sources' box to be checked. But, on the stock ROM that option seems to have been taken away. Is there a way to enable it? And, how to restore apps using Titanium?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
you need sideloading+root enabled on your phone. ignore the unknown sources box, ATT took that away from us. if you enable sideloading and root you should be ok to restore.

Is it possible to make an update.zip to include all of the mods i want?

example:circle batt,stock lock-screen etc.

I'm tired of going into terminal and typing each mod then reboot then next mod over and over again.....this would be very helpful to not only me but alot of other people that do multiple mods....thanks in advance :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bretweb24:
Hey guys, this is a really simple question, but was not able to find a simple answer for this. :confused:

I'm running stock rooted and am thinking about trying a new ROM, the question is:

1) when I do a backup of current ROM through clockworkmod recovery, does this back up all my apps? or do I need to use mybackup pro or titanium to backup my apps as well as the clockwork backup?

2) if I decide that I do not like the new ROM, can I just go restore from clockworkmod and recover my old ROM (stock) or will I need to flash the RUU file to get back to stock?

Sorry for the noob type questions, just wanna make sure I am squared away to get into these custom ROMs
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bizdady:
1) Your apps are backuped, it creates an exact image of your phone at that point. If you do a full wipe then thats when Titanium backup comes in handy.

2) Restoring a nand backup as long is the stock rom backup you want will get you back up and running.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JTNiggle:
You will need Titanium backup or mybackup if ur gonna flash a new ROM. The nandroid will backup apps, but only useful when you restore back to that nandroid. To restore ur apps after flashing a new ROM, you will need titanium.

Hey... I think this thing makes phone calls too!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nemesix_:
Yesterday, I was forced to flash my I9000. After that, I lost 3G/HDSPA connectivity. I would really like that back.

I've looked countless times on the forums, but couldn't find any threads about this.

Is there a dutch CSC file with data on vodafone?

Maybe there is another way of regaining my connectivity?

Maybe there is some general wiki about my device and the flashing of it?

I have an idea for an android app that I plan on charging for in the marketplace. I'd rather not disclose the idea on the public forum though (1 dollar, profits split equally between dev and myself). All I can say as it doesn't seem like it would be much coding and that it's a utility program (not a game or anything like that).

If you are interested, post here with a brief summary of your credentials or previous work that I can check out or just shoot me a PM.

Appreciate it.~

Oh, and I hope this kind of thread isn't against the rules.

edit... found a dev. Thanks guys.
[EVO 4G General] godfirst:
I noticed that my battery from my first evo which was given to me back in May was slightly different then the ones being issued now with the evo's. They are still both red but different in markings, and I happened to place my old battery in my newer evo and am getting way battery life with the old battery in the new evo compared to the new evo with the battery it came with. Just like my first evo seemed to be built a lot better then the ones being pushed out now. Just an observation I've noticed, and since we all have been having battery issues with our phones but I think it has to do with the way the hardware is being developed and who they are getting their products from. It's as if the newer phones aren't built tough, but I've been using my new phone with old battery and well over 14hrs of up time, and over 2hrs of awake time with 41% left and that with heavy usage.:cool:

Also my old evo battery was 75% still charged without being used for at least a month and a half.
[EVO 4G General] smarcin:
What kind of battery life do you get if you use the new battery?
[EVO 4G General] topdawgn8:
I've been contemplating if this was the case for a while, but have never had time to really do any research on it; however, without any hard information this claim is completely subjective to a placebo effect. I also feel that the differences in the screens may attribute to a difference in power draw. We have different screens with very similar set ups and he constantly gets better life. Then again, our phones are a month apart from purchase so that could give validity to different batteries.

Do you have the model numbers or anything on your batteries that would point out a difference from a manufacturing standpoint?

Mine has the following on the back of the battery:

Model: RHOD160 (Shouldn't be different)

Made: In China

SN: not relevant

PN: 35H00123-25M (not sure what this number is...chime in if you do)

Also, I doubt the relevance, but I'm rated at 3.7VDC/1500MAh and 5.55Whr. That's just something a few may want to compare just in case.
[EVO 4G General] godfirst:
It varies on the rom and kernel, but it still seemed to be drained no matter what and especially with heavy usage. But my old battery is rolling I actually have more voice calls then cell standby and android system, I think htc uses different vendors for their products, I even took out and compared the batteries side by side and they are different.
[EVO 4G General] godfirst:
When my wife gets home I will post different pictures of the batteries side by side, even the watermark to see whether or not the phones battery has water damage is even different.
[EVO 4G General] godfirst:
Even the phones are slightly different when the back plates are removed.
[EVO 4G General] myn:
Yup.

My wife and I have different batteries in ours. Both purchased the same day:

More info over at ppcgeeks:

http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/htc-evo-4g/124917-different-batteries-newer-evos-better-battery-life.html
[EVO 4G General] godfirst:
And my purchases where months a part, one in may at google i/o and the other in september. And the battery consumption of both are different, I get way better battery life out of my old evo battery, I even thought that the battery would be dead after sitting for such a long time, but it had 75% juice left which is amazing to me. Thanks for the help Myn! I guess it just depends on which one you get and from which manufature supplied it lol. But for me the old one that was released with the first wave before released to sprint is a lot better then the newer ones.
[EVO 4G General] 4redstars:
In tests, the Super LCD in HTC phones actually drained battery faster than the AMOLED Screens.

Since HTC's production had to switch to Super LCD this may be the cause.
[EVO 4G General] zikronix:
Before people even ask:

Our evo's do not have an amoled screen. Never have....and never will.
[EVO 4G General] godfirst:
It could be but I'm using the newer htc evo,but with an 1st gen battery which was distributed in May of this year, so to recieve better battery consumption with the newer phone using the older battery then in my case it's not about the phone, but the battery.:cool: Also my older phone from May took to just about any customization, kernel, rom, theme, whatever, it would run smooth, OC to 1267 and 1280 no problems with some of the same kernels and roms I've tried on the newer phone, with no avail. So there's something behind the 3rd party or what have you on who htc decides to use to help produce these phones and batteries. Because if HTC was doing everything the same then you wouldn't see different quality, hardware. It's like if you go to mcdonalds where you live and then go to the mcdonalds in another part of the world you expect mcdonalds food to be using the same reciepes being they are a organization, that stands behind their product, and not using other organizations to make the double cheeseburger, or closer popeyes or kfc, they use the same reciepe no matter where you at. But in this industrie of technology you have one party making the cpu today and a different one making it tomorrow. :D
[EVO 4G General] Estimated Prophet:
No Evos use AMOLED or Super LCD. You're thinking of the Desire.
[EVO 4G General] frettfreak:
Pretty sure its just a regular old LCD as well... not SuperLCD too
[EVO 4G General] topdawgn8:
You're right. Having other firms manufacture certain parts in technological industries allow firms to stay flexible and switch to the newest technology at little cost.
[EVO 4G General] godfirst:
But doing this there can be two sides of everything, as for us and with htc, some are experiencing smoother phones then others and the number 1 issue battery life. If they would stay consistent and attempt to make everything equal instead of trying to make more money or move ahead people would be more satisfied. If i'm not mistakened, Apple tends to make everything themselves, don't hold me on that but I thought that was something that came up and why they compare apple to pc. Making all your parts well at least the ones that matter, helps consumers be happy and keep people pushing out money to support. Though your going to have your defects, but other then that you would expect a mac book to operate the same that you brought and then maybe your wife or someone else brought.
[EVO 4G General] CheesyNutz:
shouldn't this be in general
[EVO 4G General] godfirst:
IMO I think this would be a good post for this section being that every thread you read it's about people and their battery life and especially for those hoping from rom to rom as I do, and some even blame development of the rom for such results, which roms and kernels play a part but more or less it's about the hardware. But if everyone see's this as inappropriate then I'm pretty sure they would have it removed.:cool:
[EVO 4G General] godfirst:
Everything you have is the same as the one I have on my old battery except for the part number mine is 35H00123-22M, But my old battery is made slightly different then the newer one, as well as it could be something that htc places (red covering)on the batteries before they are sent out. But I will provide pictures of the two batteries later with the way they are different (looks/design).
[EVO 4G General] arielb27:
I have also noticed that battery are different.

I got 2 OEM batteries for my EVO and was shipped 2 for the HD2. These at first I said well they will not work. But they have been great. They last longer then the RED one that came with the 2nd phone I got.

about 3 weeks ago my wife got the Evo White. and I can tell you her battery does not last as long as the HD2 battery. And my original Red one last longer then her Red one.

And I will also say that it's not made the same. My does feel like it's a bit tighter all around.

But both work great and just plain love the Evo's.
[EVO 4G General] vWvSTATICvWv:
I don't know about batteries, but I rooted 3 EvO's for friends that were just purchased close to a month ago and I noticed the differences right away. The colors were washed out and not as vibrant as my 0002 w/Nova screen. And don't even get me started on the light bleeding...It was coming out the top of the capacitive buttons and even shining right through the HDMI & USB ports. :eek:

I kept my mouth shut cause they seemed happy with it, especially after I flashed a rom and theme :p
[EVO 4G General] Igotsanevo4g:
Uhm. Evos use tft lcd's...
[EVO 4G General] topdawgn8:
I just called Sprint. They are sending me a -22M
[EVO 4G General] godfirst:
Are you serious! How did you swing that one? What did they say? My old battery has went well over 20 hrs with at least 2.5 or more of voice calls and email, etc. with over 3hrs awake time and still going with my old battery.
[EVO 4G General] topdawgn8:
I just told them I understand there are different part numbers on batteries and mine had been getting poor battery life and if I could get a replacement with part number ending in -22M
[EVO 4G General] topdawgn8:
Got it in the mail today =). Don't have to return the old one either. The only concern is it's a -00M. Anyone have this part number?

[Optimus 7 General] warenbe:
hi,

first i'm really impressed of the quality of WP7. It's smooth, well designed...

on my LG, there are settings i can change before shooting something or recording with the camera.

for exemple, i have to set the camera to HD (720p)

but when i leave the application, then come back, all the settings were back to default...

is it a bug?
[Optimus 7 General] warenbe:
am i the only one having this bug or this phone? :)
[Optimus 7 General] martoto:
I don't think so. There are couple reports about this issue from various sources. It looks like a bug in OS rather than in particular device model. Unfortunately the only thing you can do about it, is just waiting for a hot fix from Microsoft.
[Optimus 7 General] wheresmybeaver:
Happens with my HD7 too. It would appear to be a bug.

There have been a few small small bugs like this noticed across all devices in the week since WP7 launched; I wonder if MS will release a quick update pack in the next few weeks to address these? It could be a handy test update for future bigger updates (ie Jan 2011).
[Optimus 7 General] warenbe:
i hope too...

but i think microsoft will stick to january 2011 :(
[Optimus 7 General] boogeyman:

[Optimus 7 General] sutt359:

[Optimus 7 General] gurucanto:
yes hopefully MS solves these issues. I wrote in to LG that the photo software did not retain its setting once we left the app. I was only told the reset was a software requirements. Not much else was said or explained.

So do hope the MS update would address this.

It is frustrating when ever you have to keep changing the settings. Would be nice if more features were made available.

What is one of the Best, most stable, and everything works on it ROM for the kaiser as of now/present now? (please make it windows mobile 6.5 and above)

Also, at least make it good, like looks and interface and what not, and add what is the best radio for it to.

The one I have right now the wifi wont work, and it has some small problems with it.(thats and speed is why i want a stable ROM)

And camera is good on it.

Also, how can i turn off my internet to my phone and put it where it connects to wifi every-time I connect to the internet (i guess put the wifi as the main internet connection, or how i can somehow turn of the internet connection from phone).

Thanks

Interested in same Thing

I am interested in the same thing as this post is asking and didn't wanna clutter forum up. I uploaded Gangsters 6.5 rom, after reading how well it was, and when it worked it was great. but I customize my phone to the max and had alot of my old cabs from 6.1 loaded, the slide to unlock, touchflo cube, Google app+maps+youtube, tom tom, games, and a few internet tv apps. The phone was constantly locking up, the touch flo would become nonresponsive(especially in landscape mode), and the Start/windows menu would become nonresponsive as well, then when I soft reset it would hard reboot the entire phone, forcing me to reinstall everything all over again. Well, about an hour ago, the s2u2 slide to unlock stopped working, the the cube stop working. I was forced to use them to get to programs because the touchflo was non responsive again. After the soft reset, the phone rebooted, and after i did the stylus config, it rebooted again and will not go past the smart mobility screen. I just need to know of a good basic 6.5 rom or better that can handle adding several apps/cabs to it. Thanks a bunch in advance.

Good enough, perhaps not "best"

I am running Ahmed's ahmedfikry_wm6.5_21667_Tilt_3D_UC_light_rom ROM onto which I have layered my eclectic selection of applications including third-party GPS software, an ebook reader, the CORE media player and some non-standard games. I run IPT, the iPhone Today plugin as a shell and love it.

I rarely read or reply to email / social networks on my phone but I do use it for lots of other stuff including reading ebooks, listening to MP3s, texting, looking stuff up in wikipedia,and taking photos.

Ahmed's ROM is stable enough that I reboot only once every 6 weeks and usually only when I install or uninstall some application. There is plenty of room for big-a$s apps to be installed and plenty of memory for them to hog up.

I tried three other ROMs and was sorely disappointed. I experimented with the new WP7 theme for IPT but went back to the iPhone classic because I prefer it to the "tiles" in WP7.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] stylez:
Best ROM is subjective and depends on the user and their needs, flashing a ROM and testing it is nothing compared to the time chefs take to cook, take some time flashing and find the best.

[Epic 4G General] AndrewZorn:
I'm always feeling like the one that got "the" broken product, so please help me confirm/deny that.

The earpiece speaker is really buzzy at louder volumes.

The "magnifying glass" button on the face doesn't seem to do anything. I'm having a really hard time getting any of the buttons to register, like the display unit I dismissed as defective (weird fingers?) but Search seems especially bad.

EDIT the Search button on the hardware keyboard works fine, so now I know it isn't a context thing, really makes me think it is bad now...
[Epic 4G General] bachamn:
Exchange, it's from a bad lot.

Return the device! I switched to Sprint last week and picked up my Epic 4g when Amazon had them on sale for $99. The first unit I received had the exact problems you mentioned; buzzy audio in the ear piece, poor response (if any at all) for touch buttons along the bottom (though in my case the 'Back' button was the main culprit).

I told an Amazon CSR about this, and they even sent me the replacement before I sent the defective one in so I wouldn't be without a phone for even a day. New unit works perfectly so far; it's apparently just the luck of the draw.
[Epic 4G General] AndrewZorn:
You've relieved all my worry. Calling now. No customization/applications/tweaks/etc for the next couple days...

[Epic 4G General] AndrewZorn:
Excellent battery life on this one... trying to kill it so I can do a full cycle, but it's going on 20hrs now (moderate usage + overnight) (so I'm actually TRYING to run it out now...). I assume this is the battery, which I'll swap over to the new one. But there isn't a big variation in power USAGE device-to-device, is there?
[Epic 4G General] AndrewZorn:
WOW! New one is so much better. I was hitting the "working" buttons 1-3 times to make them work, thought I was just bad at it... the new one is WAY better.

Though, I have noticed that Home and Search give a stronger vibration than the other two buttons. There is no way this would be a hardware issue, so I'm not worried, I just wonder if this is intentional or if I am losing my mind.
