Skyfire FTW. Best browser hands down in my opinion. zooming and moving around through pages is much more fluent than Dolphin or Stock for that manner.. Mozilla is just garbage. Also skyfires quick access to the feature letting you choose between "desktop, android, or iphone" viewing modes makes browsing quicker and easier
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wickerstick:
my thoughts

I have tried skyfire, fennec, dolphin and dolphin HD, and opera. wanted to try xscope but im not paying for it no way! out of all of them i found the stock browser to work the best and opera came in second it was faster than all the other 3 party browsers and had nice easy to use tabs but after installing myn's i never re-downloaded it. happy with stock browser.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] method115:
I do like the opera browser but one thing that bothered me is I had problems downloading from sites that were setup like megaupload,fileserve,rapidshare. These sites would be very buggy and acted weird not letting me download the files I was trying to get (roms, and movies). Usually the counter you had to wait for would bug out or the link would never appear/work. So until that is fixed I've been sticking with Stock.

If I back up my calendar using TB, will the entry dates/details/information be saved after flashing and restoring the calendar app?

It'd be a huge pain to go back and put back in 37 calendar dates.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
Yes but if you are Rom flashing there could be some problems with restoring you calendar. It will let you do it but there can be fcs if you restore a 2. 1 back up on a 2. 2 Rom. I sync with Google so when I flash and log in to my Google account everything is there

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] aequitas3:
I was looking for sense roms for my mytouch 3g 1.2 and found one that required the radio to be updated to 6.35 ( i double and triple checked to make sure the steps and procedures were specifically for the mytouch with the 32a board ) but after I followed the directions, my phone became unresponsive. It stayed at the HTC Magic screen for about an hour before I turned my phone off and back on again to undo what I had done ( using previous experience from a screw-up I did several months back...basically using the goldcard method to re-root my phone as if it were "new" again ). My problem is, now it's more unresponsive than it was before. it pauses at system - unzipping every time i try to use hboot to load the sappimg.zip. right now my current stats are:

SAPPHIRE UNKNOWN 32A SHIP S-ON H

HBOOT-1.33.0009 (SAPP31000)

CPLD-13

RADIO-3.22.20.17

May 8 2009,21:02:32

and loads up a red vodafone bootscreen. i honestly think my problem was accidentally pressing the wrong link on Amon_RA's thread about perfected SPL, and i didn't realize it until it was too late... I cannot flash anything thru fastboot, hboot basically stops at system - unzipping when trying to run the sappimg.zip, and "fastboot boot recovery.img" loads the red vodafone screen, but doesn't flash boot the recovery so i can try and fix it with recovery...

all i need to know is if it's entirely bricked, or if i can still save it, and if so, a little nudge in the right direction would be much appreciated...i have been searching google, xda-developers, cyanogenmod, androidforums, etc. for the past 3 days and cannot, for the life of me, find out how to fix the issue...

EDIT: as always, when i ask for help, i end up fixing it somehow...

Quick question. I know pretty much which apps and functions tie into gps and google location services, I was wondering about the verizon location services. Does this have any effect on non verizon specific apps?
[Fascinate General] ksizzle9:
That is a good question whick I think I know the answer to. I would tend to think that it would but would also be surprised if it didn't. I don't really k.ow how to tell either. But.please post up if u find the answer.
[Fascinate General] ivorycruncher:
I'm pretty sure that the VZW location services is a fancy name for the assisted GPS feature, which uses cell towers to help track your location (every carrier has this). What confuses me is what the Google location services is for, and how it differs from aGPS.
[Fascinate General] adrynalyne:
Both are agps. Originally there was only Google agps on Android.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dpishta:
Did anyone notice that during the call, the screen isn't actually turned off, the backlight is still on, it just shows blank screen. You can see this if you are in a dark ambient because of the backlight bleed on the screen.

So, while you are talking, you will lose battery charge on call and on screen backlight. I don't think it is an economical way of spending battery juice.

So actually the screen is on the whole time during the call, you just can't see it because there is nothing showing on the screen...

Or is this just my device?

X10 2.1 nordic.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LahiruRD:
I noticed that, anyway during a call, it obviously drains the battery even though the screen switched off & the use of the Proximity sensor is to switch off the screen during a call to prevent the screen from touching than the economizing the battery :)

I noticed a big improvement of the battery with the 2.1 Update.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kill3rmus:
I've noticed it too, I think this would waste more battery? or is it the opposite?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dpishta:
Of course it uses more battery power. I can't rememeber if the same situation is in 1.6. Can anyone check?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kindred7:
It does use current, but i think its a minor amount. The reason why they leave it active but black for example, is that if you need to quickly access the dial pad you can do that, without waiting for a second or two for the screen to power on.

I recall back on 1.6 at times it felt like eternity that it would take to bring up the dial pad during calls. I'm not sure but check to see if the screen does in fact turn off completely after a certain duration, since that would be ok.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dpishta:
Nope, it doesn't turn off and I wouldn't say it's a minor amount of power, because the screen is one of the most power hungry components in our phones. So if you are in a call for say 30 mins just think how much battery that would suck out. And for me, for no good reason, when I'm on the phone I don't need the screen, that is why the proximity sensor exists, to turn the screen on and off :)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kindred7:
I understand, but you have to understand how the lcd works. Producing colours or tints cause the device to use more power. The brighter the colour the more power. Since white is the brightest tint or colour, whichever you prefer, black being the opposite would use the least amount of power for the screen being on. Unless this is a type of lcd matrix that uses most power with black I read about that before somewhere. But I highly doubt SE would do that. But considering its a concern of yours there might be an dialer app that negates this hmm.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NoirCavalier:
At the Sony Ericssons products Blog there was a video about the new features at 2.1

It tells also that you could press the Power-Button to turn off the light during calls.

I´ve not testet this yet, maybe of you could test this. ;-)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] outie:
It does not take a second or 2 for the screen to come back on. Just test it yourself by pressing the power button, it comes on within 1 second. On a side note, in the 1.6 days the screen would stay on completely and if you press the power button it hangs up. That was a terrible implementation.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kindred7:
Im on 2.1, cant check it anymore. It was rather sluggish for me on 1.6. The difference may be that I had pictures for all my contacts. I like it just fine.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dpishta:
Yes, you can turn the screen completely off by pressing power button, I've just tried. I don't understand why do I have to do it with my finger when I have proximity sensor that works just fine when it wakes up the screen from complete power off when I move it from my face. Seems like a bug to me.

LCD screen consumes the same amount of power no matter what image it is showing, black or white, so as far as I'm concerned showing black screen during a call does absolutely nothing for me, especially not for my battery. This is so trivial that I can't believe they missed it. Or maybe some SE engineer thought X10 has AMOLED screen so it doesn't consume power when it's displaying black... :)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chongbh:
Personally, I prefer the screen turn off compared to the screen lock in 1.6 as I had a hard time unlocking the screen lock when you need to use the dial pad when on the phone.

So when you are on the phone, the screen turns off and when you move your phone away from the ear, the screen turns on.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kindred7:
You are 100% correct, my mistake, lcds do use the same amount of power due to the backlight. I was just on the phone for 50 minutes and my battery went down by 5%, so i think its not bad at all. I was even on wcdma/gsm.

Drop SE an email to inquire on it maybe?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dpishta:
Well, maybe I'm exaggerating, but this kind of screen backlight beahaviour just isn't logical to me. You say you lost 5% on 50 min call? Hmm, that really seems low...

Where can I send inquiry to SE? :)

[myTouch 4G General] RealityDesign:
Stupid question, but I've never had a phone with HTC Sense on it. Right now I have a G2, which obviously runs the stock UI, and I really like how I have Launcher Pro set up.

With Launcher Pro installed on a MyTouch 4G, will it basically just use Launcher Pro instead of HTC Sense? That's what I'd like, but not sure how exactly sense works.
[myTouch 4G General] JWhipple:
Correct - you can install LauncherPro without any issues. You will , however, no longer be able to utilize the Sense widgets.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jkcpsal:
My speaker has distortion and I thought possibly it was blown but it's not every call. I uninstalled dsp manager to test but no change. Any ideas? Am I the only one?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1Brite1:
You probably don't. I have thought the same thing. But, it really depends on which rom/kernel you are using. Some of them have terrible noise coming from the speakers. Since I like good quality sounds, I just either try to wipe everything one more time for good measure and re-install. If that doesn't work, another rom will. Since you didn't put what you were running it is hard to say. Try another rom or go back to stock rooted rom and see then you will know if it is the rom or kernel you are using.
[Desire HD General] psych0t1c:
Has anyone ever done a teardown on the recent phones like Desire or Desire HD.

Would it be theoretically possible to carefully disassemble it and replace the low quality speaker with some equally sized component from radio shack or a similar electronic parts dealer or is the entire build much too restricted/crammed/impossible to dis- and reassemble?

I assume it would require soldering and I would leave that to a skilled technician, but generally speaking - is it a pipe dream or a possibility?

Comments (except for that it would void the warranty)...?
[Desire HD General] raze599:
Well i'm guessing that the speaker would already be jammed up in there. Considering that there is not much space around the screen and the phone is quite thin, I dont think it will be possible. If it was as you say you would have to be a skilled technician and know all about how much power goes to the speaker etc to be able to find out which one is the right one to buy.
[Desire HD Accessories] onesolo:
Hello guys,

I'm asking this cause I know there's users from the DHD that were HD2 users and probably some has a oficial HD2 pouch and is using it on the DHD or at least knows if it fits or not...

I prefer the HD2 pouch cause the DHD pouch has a sleeve to take out the DHD from the pouch and I think that with time the sleeve is going to be a bit loose from the pouch... don't you think??
[Desire HD Accessories] jamieeeee:
yeah it fits, i have both. it only sticks out a little bit in the end but thats not a problem for me because i can get it out easier that way.
[Desire HD Accessories] onesolo:
And esthetically, on the DHD pouch, do you like the fact that the sleeve tab even when the DHD is inside the pouch, gets a bit loose?!?
[Desire HD Accessories] jkoljo:
For me that was the major point why I got the HD2 pouch, and I am happy with my decision so far.
[Desire HD Accessories] SupremeBeaver:
hmm i read somewhere to not use the HD2 pouch because it fits too tight. But you guys think otherwise?
[Desire HD Accessories] jkoljo:
Mine is just ok after two days of intensive use, not too tight in my opinion.
[Desire HD Accessories] daniel81k:
I'm reading this thread, because i'm interested in cases for DHD, too. In the XDA-Wiki of DHD it is written that

If i'm right, the Supersonic (Evo 4G) has, like the HD2, not exactly the same hardware than the DHD and also the case has little other dimensions than DHDs.

So would there be a chance, that (3rd party) cases for the Supersonic will also fit good on DHD, like cases for HD2?

Essentially i'm looking for a good case (perhaps in white colour) for DHD. I think case-mate cases are very popular, but there are still no cases for DHD. Perhaps they're coming soon?!

Because of this, i'll have a look at the cases for HD2 and EVO http://www.case-mate.com/HTC-EVO-4G-Cases/HTC-EVO-4G-Cases.asp4G, but i'm not sure if they'll fit good (and e. g. have the spares for USB-connector etc. on thr right place!).

my milestone xt720 is 4 mths old.. my phone keeps on rebooting when the simcard n sdcard is inserted. It will restarts by itself after the M logo appears, and it will keep doing that until i removed the battery. I had reformatted the sdcard and use another simcard, but still the problem persist.

Can anyone help me with this problem... :(

[Android Apps and Games] panguin:
I mean, not to poop on your admittedly awesome idea, but how would you compress both screens onto my one screen? That's the main problem that I see.
[Android Apps and Games] Slacke:
Just use half the screen for each, asuming your holding your phone upright.

Would make it hard for people with physical keyboards though i guess not playing in landscape mode.
[Android Apps and Games] avatar_43:
and seeing as the bottom screen would be used as the touch screen where would that leave on screen controls?

i upgraded to jpa and added z4mod (ext2) + 341mb SO kernel

the phone never felt this fast, ever. tho my quadrant score is 1690 the interface is very fast, gallery opens/loads does everything really fast, call log,msgs,pretty much every thing i touch is blazing fast

im just glad i made the jump from eclair, currently very happy with the phones performance... reliable gps is next on the list and i'll be a happy guy for atleast 2011/12 if i dont get the urge to get the next big thing in line

I have OCLF and SuperOneClick root, no custom kernel.

Would putting another kernel on boost my score?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] bilboa1:
forget about quadrant scores and oclf. to be blunt its plain ignorance. native ext2 or ext4 or jfs if you will are the way to go. oclf will slow down overtime not the others. quadrant value 100% bogus. forget about it. the reason is over the dev forums in countless posts if youre curious. ext4 from hardcore gives me the best perf actually and it doesnt even drain the batt anymore.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] RambJoe:
I'm guessing OCLF doesn't actually install an EXT2 kernel then?

Should I flash Voodoo with Odin3 then?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] bilboa1:
no it doesn't, the stock kernel already supports ext2

oclf creates a ext2 partition on top of rfs instead of native ext2. it works and artificially boost quadrant scores (making scores irrelevant)

over time the underlaying rfs still lags the ext2 file system on top and you have to "reapply" lag fix to get the performance back

native does not need such tricks, it just works (and its faster overall also - just not on quadrant)
