To be honest, not sure if its the case for you but profiles was the cause of my battery life drain. I took off all profiles and only kept screen off. Even since I did that I get about 24 hours + of battery.

[G2/HTC Vision]
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] gbarayah:
I had a similar experience. The more profiles I had enabled, the faster my battery would drain.

I am using the same setup now and have great battery life. Even with heavy usage I can make it through the entire day without needing a charge.

Running On Demand 1209/245 and screen off 245/245.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] geckobear:
Haha this was an old thread. I'm now on CM7 nightlies and would say that in my experience I've had the best battery life running no profiles whatsoever in setcpu. I only overclock to 1017 and it's been pretty snappy still. My experience in going higher than this on CM7 has lead to issues with wake, temperature and battery drain. I personally Have no need for more than 1017.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] snudel:
agreed. this setcpu stuff did not help at my device. nor did it work reliant.

i am managing 1day with heavy use and a full weekend with moderate use without any "tuning".

that is enough for me.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] nehemiahfff:
I used setcpu for awhile, but I have been much happier using cpu tuner and "power control".

My battery life is increased by 12 to 24hrs. The key for me is really using power control to manage the screen brightness and under clocking rather than overclocking. The only time I found overclocking usedful was when playing fifa10.

Good luck

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jinson7:
Hello,

When I am at home a have a really low 3g signal strength meaning call quality is very poor or the call does not get through. I really need a toggle to switch to GSM only as this gets me full signal plus I don't need 3G at home as I am connected to my wireless broadband. I bought Tasker but no option available as of yet (I think it will only be for rooted phones when it does become available anyway).

I tried turning mobile data off but it still seems to have weak signal with network mode set to auto. I can do this manually but I would like it to be automated somehow. Any suggestions?

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anXy:
Hi,

i am from Germany, and i was wondering whether it's more expensive if i'm surfing with hsdpa, because the icon at the top of the home screen is always changing its letters...

If i have an internet flat, does it matter which kind of symbol is shown at the top?

Sometimes some apps cannot transfer data, especially when i'm going by train - is that normal?

I recently read about the fact that people are able to switch their data transfer mode between 2g, 3g, g manually by adjusting some settings.

Where do i find those settings in my galaxy gt?

with kind regards...

Is anyone else having problems with their touch screen?

It will occasionally become unresponsive, and other times will just start 'clicking' repeatedly in random spots.

I find myself having to turn the power off and on (via the button, not a hard power cycle) to fix the issue. Its starting to get annoying.

Anyone else?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] M3RK:
Yes, I am getting the same thing but I've found that if I just turn the screen off and then back on it fixes the problem. I don't need to reboot.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryoojin83:
You think this would warrant an exchange? or is it just how its going to be?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sirchuk:
I've put several hours on mine, but haven't experienced this issue. I don't know, if this happened to me more than once, I probably would exchange it.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gigadigit:
It was happening to me all the time. I had to get a screen protector and haven't happened since.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnopsec:
Very good "solution" to what should be an obvious problem. The Nook Color has a *capacitive* touch-screen. If you get "junk/gunk" on the screen, it's gonna cause you issues. I find this to be the case while holding my NC and playing Flight Director for a while. The issue: My hands become sweaty and as a result of the slight film of sweat/oil on the screen, the NC's ability to measure the capacitive changes on the screen (and react appropriately to them) is compromised.

Keep your screen clean and you won't have this issue.

Note: after you wipe the screen down (damp cloth, etc), you will need to click the power button and go the lock screen and then back into the NC before it works right directly after cleaning the screen. The dampness of the cleaning cloth throws up the calibration enough to cause very strange things. My experience with "correcting" this issue tells me that in some way, the NC is recalibrating itself when you go to the lock screen.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] M3RK:
johnopsec, this has been my experience as well. After cleaning the screen from finger-jam i don't get the phantom clicks. I also noticed that because I live in a very humid climate (Florida panhandle) there will be a thin moisture layer buildup sometimes and it really helps to wipe this off. I also have an incredible that does not have this problem but it has a screen protector which, I am guessing (and as gigadigit expressed), fixes the problem. Just make sure the screen is clean and dry before applying!
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psychoticsmiley:
screen response

Also,

If you are holding the side of the case by the screen this throws off the touchscreen, I was having the issue where it would be clicking and multiple letter inputs when typing.

Also when it is laying flat and you have the power cord plugged in you may get multi letter inputs.

The trick, hold it by the back not the sides.

and if you have it plugged in and need to type don't leave it laying flat.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PHiZ:

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scratchfury:
My Nook Color started acting up after paying levels 3-4 to 3-6 of Angry Birds. I'm not sure if Angry Birds caused the issue or not as I haven't gotten it to do it in another app. I'm running 1.4.2. Doing a lock and unlock fixes the problem until it returns.

I managed to get Phone Tester to run after it got into this state. I made a video of it using a crappy webcam. There's a stuck finger in the corner.

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clockcycle:
Touch Screen issues while unit is plugged in..

It seems I have read on some forums that some people have screen issues.

Personally I didn't experience this until I tried to use my NC while plugged into it's wall charger.. It seems to act as if it has a grounding issue, which is not the case when the unit is unplugged.

So when you are running your multitouch or touch tests, do it without the unit plugged in..

I have had the same problem with my touch screen. I have the nexus live wallpaper and whenever you touch the screen it sends off the animation. Well sometimes it just goes non stop and sometimes opens up the window where you can apply a widget. I guess the most practical solution would be a screen protector but if not ill restore it and send it off to B&N

There's a small little app in the market named "Nook Screen Recalibrate" this app is super simple and easy to use. I hope this helps :)

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.assid.android.nookrecalibrate&feature=search_result
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Awats:
Here is the issue I have...

Right is the N button side. Just a reference point for this.

Reboot the Nook (I use CM7).

Bring up the keyboard

Touch Q in the center - you get W.

Touch Q on the right - you get W

Touch Q on the left - might get Q but you usually get W.

Recalibrate using the Nook Screen Calibration (above).

Q now gives Q unless you press on the right side of the key. I also notice I still have to hit the back arrow more to the left or I bring up the keyboard.

I've learned to live with it, but the left side of the touchscreen is slightly off and you have to touch to the left side of any object on the last 1".
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boxcar8028:
yeah, for me it's the edge of the screen along the right side. it's less sensitive then the rest of the screen. I found that calibrating 2-3 times really works best.

There's also a fix in the nookwiki, but i can't get my adb to work on my laptop, I think its the drivers.

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Awats:
What is the left and right side? :p

I should have said that left is the side opposite the N button.

Having similar problem as described, after two years. Extended warranty expired ... two weeks ago (of course).

Tried cleaning screen, no help. Have not tried screen saver yet, but will.

In the meantime, I notice the comments about touching the sides, and I noted that as well.

Is it possible that this could be helped by opening it up and re-seating the case? Has anybody tried this?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Gushfevah:
My own fault all along.

Internet has worked on every build i've tried so far with no problems, and it seems that data disconnects are a thing of the past, but i've never been able to send or recieve MMS, except once when i first loaded a Loaded a build i sent and recieved an MMS from my Girlfriend.

Anyways, i was having trouble with youtube too, so i was looking on the web for a solution, and found that youtube needs more than 1 permission in Droidwall to be able to stream the video's.

Suddenly it clicked that to send MMS you need an internet connection, and my Droidwall was blocking it. Enabled "Messages" in Droidwall and bingo, send & recieve no problem.

I guess that the time i sent one before i hadn't put Droidwall on before i sent the message as i'd just loaded the build.

May not help anyone, but for those of you who use Droidwall, make sure that "Messages" is Enabled, i've been overlooking it for the past 3 months lol

Thanks to all the Dev's that have made Android on the HD2 possible, it just seems to get better every day.

Edit..

Ooops, this was meant to be in General Discussion, not Q&A, any chance a Mod could move it if they see this.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] xperiax10.awesome:
Hi All,

I am using following launchers currently:

1.Default

2. ADW

3. Home++

4. LauncherPro

5. NetLifeScreen

6. Windows7 Launcher

And I use Home Switcher to switch between these launchers, I can observe that my phone started lagging, is multiple launchers is the reason?

I am using task killer and cant see the other launcher running??

Also when I reduce the no. of screens to 3, there is no issues what soever!!!

Any suggestions...:confused:
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] irTim:
Having so many launchers would definitely make the phone run slower.

I suggest you stick to 1-2.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] kindred7:

[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] mrtim123:
apart from testing, i cannot think of any reasons to be running more than 2 launchers. this will be consuming resources for sure, especially if you are using switcher to flip between them (this leaves them ALL open, all the time!)

Pick 1 or 2 launchers and remove all the others. u will be surprised how much quicker it is!
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] xperiax10.awesome:
I removed all the launchers and tested with my default launcher, it seems AUTO SYNC is causing some lagging issues, when I turned if off all seems Ok.

With AUTO SYNC off, even 4 launchers are working fine, minor lagging issues in LauncherPro (while using Launcher Pro widgets).

My conclusion

: Turn Auto Sync Off + Use 3 Launchers at max :)

Does anyone know the dpi of the grab. Why do I hear its like 118? That's horrible, the galaxytabs doing is 196. Anyone know how to change the LCD density(dpi) PERMENANTLY even after reboot?
[G Tablet General] danielsjam:
Edit your /system/build.prop and add the following line. Change 160 to what your want.

ro.sf.lcd_density = 160

If you are using adb

adb pull /system/build.prop

edit and make the change to build.prop and save

adb remount to mount the partition in r/w

adb push build.prop ./system/build.prop

adb shell reboot
[G Tablet General] atomb:
I'm not sure about the first part of your question but I changed the density at boot by adding this to my build.prop under Additional Build properties:

ro.sf.lcd_density=120

Looks much better now and now I have even more screen real estate
[G Tablet General] cuzzinz:
This is very interesting. I am sure a few people would like to see pictures of this.

There is an app that I use called LCD density changer, it allows you to change it, with a soft reboot. I am now using it with the stock TNT 1.0.1 build. I know there are hatred of the TNT interface, but I love it when I am working at my desk.

I am new here so I cannot link it. I would be happy to send it to someone who can.
[G Tablet General] cuzzinz:
Would you care to take a picture of your g-tab with the density set to normal and then set to a higher number so we can see the difference?
[G Tablet General] atomb:
I'll post some shots, what is a good screen shot app?
[G Tablet General] cuzzinz:
Hmmm... that might be difficult to explain on the g-tab because i believe you need root and you need to use the one from the SDK.

you can just take pictures with your phone or digital camera and upload them... im sure that would be enough to see the difference.

[G Tablet General] lostpilot28:

Im Assuming Stock is 160 cuz thats what lcd Density for Root Tells me. I Wouldnt go smaller then 140. 140 is good but anything smaller is waaay too tiny.

You will need a program that allows you to mount directories as read and write. Otherwise it won't work. I am not sure of any free ones that are available.

Sorry to resuscitate and old thread, but Yesterday, my G-Tablet somehow trashed it's android.database.sqlite, so my planned upgrade to the Official CM7 was forced.

CM7 is great, but the Icons, the Menu Bar, and pretty much everything look too big -- and I'm an old guy that (sometimes) wears reading glasses. It looks like the Android Tablet for Pre-K.

I know I previously changed ro.sf.lcd_density, but -- old guy thing again -- I can't remember what I set it to.
