[Epic 4G General] megabiteg:
I wonder what they plan to do then with the 4G button on our phones? lol...

Now is the time ITU desiced to say who is 4G and whos not?? And the funny part is that the technology they call 4G is not even available...
[Epic 4G General] boomerbubba:
The engineering purists have always said that Wimax and LTE are not properly called "4G." They get shouted down or ignored by the marketers who run the carriers. Much sexier to claim "4G" than to call it something more descriptive and precise.

It's all nomenclature. Too bad that words can't just mean something. What willl the marketers call the real 4G when it comes along in real-world networks?
[Epic 4G General] scriz:
I claim it be dubbed "faster than 3g but not quite yet 4g which won't come for another 4 years"..and i want that put on the back of my phone and replaced as the text of the 4g button..now!
[Epic 4G General] Xerloq:
The marketers will probably call it 5G :p
[Epic 4G General] DotMpeg:
Instead of confusing consumers with Clearwire/WIMAX, HSPA+, and LTE let the carriers call the tech 4G. Its better this way.

Sent from my "Wheres my 2.2 Epic 4G" using the XDA App
[Epic 4G General] gTen:
They will call it 4.5g+ or something lol....but real 4g is available(wimax 2)...Samsung demonstrated real 4g in a convention..said it requires minor updates to current boxes, backwards compatible with wimax 1 and outputs 330mbps of delicious speeds...

so lets go over the facts:

1) its a minor upgrade that doesnt even require change to the towers only an addon to the box as long as the box is made by samsung

2) Sprint happens to use samsung for their stuff

3) It is backwards compatible and would give increased speeds even to wimax 1 devices

So if you haven't figured out why sprint isn't making it happen yet..well neither have they >.>
[Epic 4G General] boomerbubba:
I can easily think of two reasons:

1) If it is made by Samsung, it might not work as Samsung claims. (Sorry to sound cynical. I own an Epic.)

2) Sprint/Clearwire are already running out of capital just to complete the buildout of the Wimax "4G" network.
[Epic 4G General] gTen:
Samsung is already powering providing the equipment and building out the network for sprint..whats an extra box gonna do >.>

I don't know about you but at 330mbps connection id be willing to cancel my internet altogether and get the clearwire broadband...
[Epic 4G General] scriz:
I'd be willing to cancel my home internet with just 5mbps. I got 7mbps on 4G yesterday while at Kings Island..and I about ..wait for it..JIZZED..IN MY PANTS! Sorry, had to.

:cool:
[Epic 4G General] gophergun:
It's always bugged me that they call it 4G (and even moreso that T-Mobile is calling HSPA+ 4G), but I also understand that the average consumer is much too stupid to understand what a megabit is, much less distinguish between three different and rather complex technologies - if you don't boil it down to a stamp that reads "IT'S FASTER" on it, they won't buy it.
[Epic 4G General] chino0131:
Im with you on this. I recently canceled my Fios at home since my 4G connection was faster on every speed test, both up and down, and 5 times more reliable. As long as I can tether my 4G to my computers, who needs home service!

[Captivate General] zeamany:
I found the captivate drain battery too fast, even at the lowest brightness the phone gives. So I am thinking about maybe we could further turn down the brightness of the screen, this might save a lot battery.

But how??
[Captivate General] RexEscape:
I noticed that from JF6 to JH7, the brightness went down one tick lower. When I had stock JF6 set to manual brightness, I used to not have a hard time reading the contents on the display while the phone is on my desk, set to the lowest setting. When I did the JH7 OTA update, I noticed that the lowest brightness setting (when set to manual) is even lower. It made it harder to read. Hope that answers your question on brightness settings. There is more on JH7 than just the brightness settings changes. :eek: Plus, there are other things you can do to save battery power than just adjusting the display brightness ;)
[Captivate General] baseballfanz:
When I go into Settings, About and battery use.

It show that the Display using about 60% of the power.:(
[Captivate General] RexEscape:
Everything is relative on that page. If all you do is turn on the screen and browse, the "Display" battery usage will be higher. If you're on the phone for an hour or so (which, by default, the display turns off) you'll see "Voice calls" number go up. Etc.
[Captivate General] stuff:
Basically it's saying, the time you've had your device unplugged, 60% of the battery usage has been due to the display. and 40% of it is among other things.
[Captivate General] yourtvlies:
There's an app on the market called Dimmer that will knock the brightness down a bit from the lowest setting. There's a small window that pops up that says "changing brightness from XX to 10" where XX = 30 on the lowest setting via the default brightness settings.

This makes me suspect that the brightness could go even lower, though I don't if it would impact the performance of the screen, given the Super AMOLED tech.

http://www.appbrain.com/app/dimmer-%28-night-mode-%29/com.geekyouup.android.dimmer
[Captivate General] Mac11700:
This is normal..All this means is your display is using the most and you don't have any background programs eating the battery.It should always show this as the highest from what I've been told.

In settings you can can either use the automatic brightness setting..or not... it is in Sound and Display..scroll down to display settings and you will see Brightness...Screen Time Out...and Power Saving Mode . Click on Power Saving mode....if you see the green check mark there..you are unchecking it..then open the Brightness tab..click on automatic brightness adjustment if checked and do the same thing ..and then ok. Your screen will darken.. You can then install the power bar on one of your screens by touching a unpopulated area large enough to accept the power bar strip. You will then be able to adjust the brightness by tapping on it..as well as being able to turn on and off wi-fi..blue-tooth..satellite..sync..and lastly brightness.

[Captivate General] zeamany:
This is good. It turns my screen from 30 to 10, and it does save battery.
[Captivate General] jwood55812:
Theres also an app called Screen Filter which does the same thing as you guys have been describing, except it has a slider you can use to set what you would like, I use it for reading in bed, and it works wonderfully.

[Touch HD General] junaid93:
I am running a HTC Touch HD with a 8gb microSD memory card, i was watching a movie on it when it suddenly froze. Done a soft reset and found that the storage card to be empty and all programs which were installed to the mem card are also gone. However Start > Settings > Memory > Storage Card, shows 7.2gb used 700free meaning that the data is still there but the phone will not read it for some reason. I have been doing some research and have found that a lot of people have had the same problem but have not as yet posted a solution :(

All threads i found on this topic are from 2008-earlier and i was wondering if anybody has found a fix for this yet or whether i'll have to format the storage card completely as the computer on which i made the back-up for the card was also formatted last week in which case ill have to download all the data and programs again. :confused:

Thanks in advance :o
[Touch HD General] trb999:
I have a similar issue, I had my Touch HD connected to the PC using the 'Disk Drive' option and accessing some files on the SD card whilst TomTom was running. I unplugged my device and TomTom complained about missing files then the app would not start again, I could not see the SD card after this on the device or my PC SD card slot so I restarted the PC and the phone.

I could then see the files on my SD card, and I could see the files on my device but it is now appearing as Storage Card 2, I had to reinstall my apps to this new location to get them working as I could not get the SD card to show as Storage Card, and there is already a Storage Card showing as well as Storage Card 2.

Weird!!!

[Droid X Android Development] gweedo767:
Sorry for not posting this sooner everyone. But if you want to check out the first DX/D2 Overclocker to hit the market here are a few screens:

One of the key features this one carries is you can have as many presets as you want and as an integrated stress test feature to see if your settings are happy or not. There are also some new safety features coming today and something big I can't speak about tomorrow or Wednesday.

If you have any comments or ideas, let me know. I always want to improve things!

Thanks.
[Droid X Android Development] Gimpeh:
I can vouch for this product. Very nice layout and the settings work as advertised. I can't wait to see what you have up your sleeve!
[Droid X Android Development] Sleuth255:

[Droid X Android Development] adammsu:
working for me so far, nice work. i was hoping i wouldnt have to go through the files like in the tutorials...

quadrant was like 1375 or so, now i hit 1485. not bad i think!
[Droid X Android Development] Venc:
How can I test the overclock? I see always this bar graph on the forum but don't know what it is.

I have a blur X and was wondering if I could make it quicker without loading a custom ROM

Thanks

Ohh in the market in the app description make it in bold that it is only for the DX and D2 I think people are using it on other phones and that is why you are getting negative reviews. I'm thinking on getting it this week
[Droid X Android Development] gweedo767:
That bar graph you are most often seeing is people running the benchmark "Qaudrant". Go download it from the Market, it is free.
[Droid X Android Development] gweedo767:
Real time CPU scaling and current speed are in 1.3.2 that just hit the Market. Enjoy.
[Droid X Android Development] AsaSpades:
I was wondering how the stress test works, everytime I use an OC setting and use the stress test and try to send a text it locks ups, no matter what speed im using. 1.45GHZ works but locks up after use without stress testing, and 1.40GHZ works fine until put under a lot of stress, but drains battery fast so ive been messing around wit the settings. Whats a great way to test my settings?
[Droid X Android Development] gweedo767:
The Stress Test litterally just goes to town on your poor phone. It calculates PI to 800 decimal places over and over and over again until you tell it to stop. I don't recommend trying to do anything else while it is going. Just let it run and see if it craps out. Then be sure to stop it ;)
[Droid X Android Development] AsaSpades:
Alright thanks, how long should I let it run?
[Droid X Android Development] debaucher:
How long you let it run is up to you.

I typically start it then set it on my desk while I cook dinner/take a shower/do chores etc..

When I am done I check it out and see if it crapped out or not.

Also, I have tried all 3 methods currently available for OC'ing our X's and (in my opinion) this is the best out of them.

Nice user interface, some good starting points for OC'ing and with the latest build you get current/max/min clocks and battery temp.

Now, he just needs to add current voltage so I know what speed and voltage my X is pulling at that time.

OH, and some kind of log would be tits as well.

(Just thinking out loud)

D.
[Droid X Android Development] adammsu:
I keep getting the "oc in 90 seconds" pop up randomly even though I turned it off and applied settings...seems to be on anyway .. Many reboots and still getting the message
[Droid X Android Development] debaucher:
Yep, I have noticed that as well.

I thought it might be memfree I was running, so I uninstalled it this morning and will see if that makes it go away.

If not, it is only a minor annoyance.

D.
[Droid X Android Development] adammsu:
i agree, only minor, IF IN FACT that it really has been overclocked the whole time., and isn't dropping up and down all day.
[Droid X Android Development] siphyn:
I also have been having the same issues but I thought it was just me.
[Droid X Android Development] imdave3587:
I think the problem here is the 1.45 ghz. To increase the Frequency that drastically, you also need to increase voltage. With a voltage setting too low you will lock your phone. The closer you get to a stable VSEL value the more you will be able to do before it locks up. That is why the stress test is so powerful a test to determine if the voltage is appropriate. When at 1.40 ghz your voltage must be close to stable if you can use under lite usage, but if you can only use it lightly, why OC so drastically?

Another App in the market, Droid x/2 Overclock, gives an advised list of frequencies and the VSEL value, and for 1.45 ghz, it advises 82 VSEL as the starting point. which is about 33% more power than it uses at stock frequency (62 VSEL). This is why you said you are tearing through your battery much quicker.

To alleviate the added draw, what I do, is run 2 settings, I leave it undervolted and clocked down to 750 mhz for every day use (barely notice a difference from stock performance) which increases my battery life to 35 hrs + and have a second setting for things like Emulators clocked up to 1.45 ghz running 78 VSEL very stable, never locks up. The added step is worthwhile to me since it both saves the added strain on the processor, Less Heat, and drastically Increases Battery Life.

If you insist on leaving it full blazing 1.45 ghz, get SetCPU (also in the market) and set profiles that can down control power, ie when my screen is off, the CPU is capped at 300 mhz. For the most part the Android OS already controls this pretty decent, but I like to be able to manually control it myself.
[Droid X Android Development] Daali:
I would really like to see the application stop the service after it does it sets the clock after 90seconds.

As it stands now, I force stop it every boot.

Hi All,

Im having some problems connecting from my Desire to a wireless access point with a hidden SSID and WPA2-PSK encryption. I can add the network but it always shows as "out of range", even when im sat right next to the router.

I have seen a few threads about this - it apparently works for some but not for others. Is there a way to fix it?

Im using the latest stock T-mobile (UK) software (froyo) and I'm pretty sure this used to work in Eclair.

Thanks

My question is: can i simply backup my sd card onto my HD, then use Rom Manager and partition my sd card with 512mb and 0 swap then restore back the files to the sd card?

Will my phone restore to its original state?

is it possible that even when apps are uninstalled it does not completely remove them from the internal memory/sd card. where it was installed?

coz since i got my desire.i've tried alot of apps before froyo and even after which install to internal memory as default?

so i was just thinking.if it does not remove completely all files ans stuff

mayb its a good idea to do a hard reset and reinstalled only the apps i have currently on my phone and use only again?

that should leave internal memory with mayb i hope 10mb more than current?
[Android Software Development] gambiting:
Hi there,

I am currently trying to develop a game for android in OpenGL ES....and I am testing it on my Nexus One. But I have run into some problems with performance.

I currently have a very basic scene - background made of 25 tiles(256x256 texture each), and then a number of textured cubes(128x128 texture for each side of a cube ). However,when I try to display approx. more than 10 cubes, the performance becomes so sluggish that I can't even rotate the scene smoothly. I can't imagine how can I add more objects(player,enemies, all that kind of stuff) when it runs so slowly with 35 objects in total. I mean - games like Raging Thunder 2 probably display hundreds of objects at once(plus they do lots of computations behind the scenes) and they run super-smooth on my nexus one. What am I doing wrong? Could somebody help me please????
[Android Software Development] jug6ernaut:
Are you rendering all 25 tiles at once? Try rendering your cubs without the the background
[Android Software Development] gambiting:
It is not really a fault of either cubes or background - if I try to disable background,but leave ~30 cubes, it's slow. But if I don't display any cubes,but 50 tiles for the background, it is also slow.

I must be doing something else wrong, I don't know -don't initialize opengl properly, have some antialiasing turned on, I seriously have no idea - I am asking if you know what may be a _typical_ reason for sluggish performance in opengl,as I am new to opengl es(used opengl earlier though) and I may have easily overlooked something.

That's how it looks like:

Do you think that there is seriously too much stuff on the screen?
[Android Software Development] jug6ernaut:
How many bit textures are you using?
[Android Software Development] gambiting:
Bit textures? I only use two textures:

Nothing else. The multi coloured cube in the middle is just a gradient cube.
