[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] MrDroopy:
Well, LeTama has a good point there, thanks for pointing it out. Indeed power collapse can in theory extend the standby time of the HD2 from a good 1 day up to well over 1 week. Thing is however that power collapse only effectively works in situations where the cpu can indeed be cut-off. That means switch off all background data services that keep our beloved HD2 from doing a deep sleep, like push mail, location services, tweets,peeps etc. Still this can save the day when running short.

It is no magic potion that will prevent your battery from dying within hours after a heavy Angry Birds session ;-)

As for the fact that it only works on NAND I am puzzled too, I know that Cotulla got it working for NAND but theoretically it should also work on the sd versions, since only the ARM11 subsystem is cut-off.

To cut a long story short: people who want the advantages of multiple os on the sd and easy tweaking, are probably the kind to soak a battery well within a day anyway. People who use their phone primarily as a phone, with just an occasional grasp in the cookie and candy jar will gain significant by using a NAND version.

I say hail hail to the devs who make it possible to choose.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] orangekid:
you make a good point except that a lot of us work during the day/night and that's when power collapse will shine. I hate putting my phone to sleep for 5 hours while working and waking it up to find 20% battery has been drained, even on 245/245 powersave on SetCPU and other various tweaks.

This won't solve heavy usage, but having my phone not in use while at a party, overnight, working, or driving (trust me you can easily spend 2+ hours going somewhere in Houston with our jacked up traffic) is a big thing to have the battery handled.

For heavy usage I generally keep it underclocked at about 800 mhz and 95% of my apps run fine. If I am going to play final fantasy 8 or something, then I go back to 1ghz or OC it to play and get pretty good battery life. It's the power collapse that I really want.

The other great thing about NAND which is mentioned, is the boot-up time. Right now from off you have to boot up winmo THEN bootup Android which takes forever!

If I could just turn on my phone and be running Android in 45 seconds or less I'd be pretty damn happy.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] juengling:
I Would like to know your settings. How do you manage to get outstanding battery life.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] MartyLK:
The only thing I can think of for having such outstanding battery life is I leave WinMo fully active. That is, I leave the data and all other things on that would be on under normal use. Plus, there are only a few builds I've achieved such good battery life from...they are in my sig.

As for settings in Android, I don't do anything special. I don't use Live wallpaper and I most of the time leave animations off. I even stopped using JuiceDefender because I see better life and performance without it. I leave it installed, though, because I like the widget info.

I think one main thing is the type of card being used. I use 2 Sandisk 8GB class 4 cards and 1 PNY 4GB class 4 card. It has been my understanding class 4 rather than class 2 or class 6 is better for battery life and overall performance/battery life ratio.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] anush.isaac:
Better Battery Life...

If you are not a power user(meaning use data services on demand and not all the time) you can easily get more than a day's battery life easily if you turn off mobile data connection.. The mobile data connection has been my main culprit for battery drain, I always keep it switched off unless I am checking mails, facebook or Android Market.. With moderate use I was easily able to cross 24 hours with quite a bit of battery remaining, This might already be a known fact but just stating it again...

I was almost gonna pee while laughing lol :D "jailbreak on hd2" this one is a real classic :eek::D

Besides it is funny it is also kinda right that we jailbreak our HD2. We just use another name which is "HPSL". So it's just a matter of different terminology imao. I'm sure he prefers forbidden words like apple ios jailbreak just because he comes from an iphone device. So just a lil sympathy guys ;)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jankko:
Sorry if there is an obvious answer to this question, but will the kernel source code help in fixing the issues with PPP (the data drops)?

While HD camcorder would be very nice and all, the only thing that really prevents from properly using Android builds in HD2 are the data drops.

sorry if it sounds annoying but:

is it ever gonna be possible to have 720p recording?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] elgrego4:
Even if it was possible, AMR sound makes it pointless :(
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] deckoff:
Lets SUM it UP

So, after reading all posts, the new kernel means:

1. We will get fully working Desire HD Build( + Camera)

2. No HD video ...

3. We might even get a ROM to flash??!??!...

4. ...which might even lead to better battery life!!!

(although I think a wife/girlfriend living with you and NO FIDDLING with the phone is the best answer :p )

Any corrections and benefits wanted and welcome :)

#1 Is what the new kernal means.

sorry if this is a noobish question. are there any Android ROMs out now that are based off of this (the new Sense + working camera)? if so, is there a way that they're marked?

thanks.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Blairware:
What he said! Sense HD on HD2 + Camera = THE SECRET OF LIFE!

Actually thats a perfect question, noob or not, and one that I am sure a LOT of folks are asking. I have to date been unable to find any build that sporst the magical combination of "Sense HD" and a working camera (on any sort) for the HD2.

Once you try Sense HD, it's really painful to go back. Kind of like having Windows 7 Ultimate, and then going back to some basic version without any of the Media Center stuff....

I realize the camera fix must be a real toughie, but still, I am surprised one of the mega-geniuses on XDA have not resolved it. The only builds I even knew of with Sense HD for HD2 were the Froyostone HD (Discontinued) and the 2 Mdeejay builds (Desire HD and Desire Z) He seems to have dropped Desire Z for some reason (too similar to Desire HD, perhaps?)

Really, this is ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS THIS YEAR!

[Galaxy Tab General] ftgg99:
I have been considering a mostly black wallpaper in order to save power on my tab. After reading this post i want to look into the actual benefits of saving a small percentage of juice under my conditions (sometimes i just sit around flickincking between homescreens like an idiot)...

Theres a great chart at that post from ars technica:

Im gessing there is no benefit for the tabs display but what the hell?

Maybe its worth giving this a little test. What do you suggest? two 10 minute runs on 100% brightness, one pure black one pure white? maybe a gray as well?
[Galaxy Tab General] Khisha:
SGT as opposed to SGS is not equipped with any type of OLED screen but regular LCD. Therefore black would be very power consuming color.
[Galaxy Tab General] ftgg99:
So you would think - but judging by the chart the difference in power consumption is minuscule!
[Galaxy Tab General] Khisha:
My fault. LCD almost careless about this today. Perhaps I had plasma on my mind.
[Galaxy Tab General] ftgg99:
bump - still interesting :)
[Galaxy Tab General] foxmeister:
Only when compared to an OLED screen!

With a regular LCD, it won't make a blind bit of difference because it's the backlight which is draining the power and it's always on anyway when the screen is on, regardless of what is actually being displayed.

Regards,

Dave

EDIT - just realized this thread is 20 days old and so I shouldn't have bothered posting!
[Galaxy Tab General] ftgg99:
Bump - i for got how interesting that image in the first post is :)
[Galaxy Tab General] ftgg99:
Bump - may still be interesting for many people!
[Galaxy Tab General] beestee:
Interesting for many people that have an OLED screen...Galaxy Tab does not have OLED. This scientific american article (from 2007) claims that white saves more energy on most LCD displays.

It depends on the 'rest state' of the LCD that is in the Galaxy Tab which would be more efficient, white or black, and according to other tests that i have seen the savings would be negligible compared to the cost of backlight operation.

Want to save battery on your Tab?

1. Dim your display.

2. Turn off unnecessary comms, 3g/wifi/gps.

3. Turn off haptic feedback.

4. Use less apps that run in the background.

5. Use longer intervals for apps that auto-refresh.

The list goes on and on, and in the end only 2 or 3 things are really going to make a difference for each person. If you sit and stare at your background all the time, then making it white or black probably will save you battery because you will not be staring at it any more.

According to the original research illustrated in the header picture, there is little to no difference between light colors...

Hi all,

it takes a long time to develop an app and it takes even more to achieve that your app is known.

My app (so far) Voice Message has ads from admob to help me to get some money from the users.

I don't know if this is already said, but I think we can collaborate with Admob auto-ads. For example, I can put ads in Admob of another app as if it were mine and the other developer could do the same.

If you think this is a good idea to promote our apps, I will put ads in Admob to promote your apps, and you will do the same for mine.

We can put in Admob until 50% ads from auto-ads and collaborate among us.

What do you think?
[Android Software Development] yogle:
Hi pacosal,

I do really like your idea! You can develop the best apps but if nobody knows them them they're useless.

In the end that's bad for the users and the developers!

I do have two apps in the Market with one of those as a paid app. I would really like to have more advertisement, because personally I think it is the best one available. If we can find more developers who are willing to collaborate we could get a large user base and increase popularity and therefore sales.

I'm willing to put my free app (~60000 downloads and ~30000 active users) into the pot.

Who's next?! :)

// edit: wow that was my first post, really?! Almost one year after registering... :D
[Android Software Development] pacosal:
ok, perfect!

We can wait for more developers or we can start right now and when others developers want to join us, they have to write in this thread.

My app is Voice Message, you can put this kind of ads.

Try the free Voice Message App with url to: market://details?id=com.pacosal.voicemessage

What is your APP?

Tell me and I will promote yours.

Anyone more?
[Android Software Development] pacosal:
Anyone else?
[Android Software Development] yogle:
Hey,

sorry for the long delay.

Currently I don't have ads in my free app (called 'Stats') and I don't want to update it just to add ads into it. It will take some time for me to put a little work into it.

We should collect more developers to build some kind of community. What do you think about a small website?

[Android Software Development] pacosal:
It could be a good idea, but at first we need more developers interested in.

Are you referring to the gtalk service? If you are, it have something to do with gmail. I have tried removing gtalk and the gtalk service provider and it caused my gmail to stop working. What i ended up doing is just remove talk.apk. The app doesn't actually run until you click on it.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steveruv:

yeh, i believe its the actual gtalk service. ive been getting people messaging me when I never open up the app.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mmas0n:
The Talk service is responsible for the majority of the background communications for all Google apps and even some of the Market functions.

If you just want people to stop messaging you, go into Talk and change your status to Invisible or Busy. You could also try insulting their mother on a regular basis.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demize!:
you cant download apps from the market if that service isnt running, I advise not to f*&ck with it.

Just got hold of some Brasso Gadget Care and used it on the screen of my Desire HD, works really nice, have spent about ten minutes using the phone doing various tasks and the screen show hardly and sign of smudging.

It can be used on other gadgets like laptops and cameras and for just under six-quid it has got to be worth a go.

:D
[Desire HD Accessories] EliteIntegrity:
Ill second that. It is good stuff and leaves a really fresh, sort of hygienic smell behind as well.

Brilliant on the kids gadgets (psp, ds etc) as well.

Brasso say suitable for laptops and TVs. I think the cloth is a bit small for them. My 18inch laptop came up a treat and was quite fingerprint resistant for a while as well but the cloth was clearly inadequate - size wise for this and was a bit soggy and not suitable for buffing by the end of the operation.

Would be great and should be possible, RyanZa made an app to change kernel dierctly on the phone so it is possible.

About boot loader, we could use CW:

We choose the kernel

We boot the phone with the selected kernel.

And also an option to disable/enable automatic launch of CW.

The drivers for windows are inside the joy 845 :)

Simply plug the device using the usb cable, open windows explorer and run setup.exe

(if setup.exe is not visible and u see the contents of the device instead unplug and plug it again. Yes i know it's strange)

After that run again the adb devices command. It may display the device with a questionmark but it's no problem, you can start deploying and debugging :)
