Think of the charging indicator as a "fast charging" indicator. B&N forgot to include a "slowly charging" indicator.

If you really don't believe that it actually does charge that way, unplug it and run the battery completely dead. Then plug it in to a USB port with a standard USB cable (NOT the B&N charger and cable) and wait. Come back in four hours and unplug it. Try to turn it on. If the battery is half way charged, it can charge from a USB port. If the battery is still dead, don't lose your B&N charger. You're gonna need it.

So, i got mine rooted last night. Couldn't have been easier. Customized it with some apps from the market as well. Still looking for a good reader that will allow highlighting and annotating pets that are sideloaded. I'd even pay for something like the full version of quickoffice. Anybody messed with that on the nc?

What did you do to get the Gingerbread keyboard to work. I have autonootered with the 12/25/2010 version, and when I select the Gingerbread keyboard, no keyboard shows up. Going back IME keyboard works fine. I'd like to get that working.
[Nook Color General] MattZTexasu:
What you guys are saying is that the nook won't "fast" charge with a regular usb cable even if you use the charger it came with. I don't why you guys couldn't just say that without bringing up usb ports. I know the usb port doesn't have enough juice, and i never said i was trying to use it.

And it still sucks that there is a special cable required to fast charge.

[Nook Color General] MattZTexasu:
I rooted it, and I was really enjoying it. I had it completely tricked out and going exactly the way I wanted.

Then I tried to open the shop to look for a book to buy, and bam "You nook is resetting due to authorization issues."

ARGH. I had used the shop after rooting, and I had assumed I was one of the ones that wouldn't have this issue. I guess not.
[Nook Color General] RoboRay:
Actually, no that's not at all what I said. What I said (as you quoted it) was simply that there is no charging indication when charging via USB, even though it is slowly charging. That's in response to the dozens (but it feels like hundreds) of people who keep complaining about and/or "confirming" over and over and over and over again that their NC "won't charge" with a regular USB cable simply because they don't see the indicator come on. That's all.

If you understand the USB current limits and how that impacts charging speeds, great. You're ahead of all them.

And yes, needing a proprietary charger+cable to fast charge does suck.

folks

i used my phone's built-in function under mobile settings and set it to Home only instead of automatic. However, now that I'm in another country, it just doesn't connect to any network for making phone calls or SMS

I simply want to turn off my data access so that I don't have apps updating, etc but i want to use my phone for SMS

Is there an app i can install to turn off data but keep my regular phone function?

Thank you

Anyone know how to edit the PRL on the intercept. I have my MSL, but have no clue how to get to the edit menu.
[Intercept General] lacien:
use cdmaworkshop, you'll see the tab to write prl, if i remember right the spot to enter your msl is on the right side of the screen. sorry it's been awhile since i used it and it don't have it currently installed. evidently the dialer code to write prl was disabled on newer handsets. here's what it will look like btw, note the spc user unlock..that's where you'll use your msl.
[Intercept General] qipengart:
Do you have the Sprint or Virgin Mobile version?
[Intercept General] Jeramir:
PRL on Virgin Mobile Intercept

i've been trying to go into diag mode for quite a few hours now, but i cannot seem to find any way to do it... i was able to root using ADB install z4root, nonetheless the computer doesn't seem to find the diag port, i only have the intercept as modem but cannot go into diag mode or use cdma workshop on it to program.
[Intercept General] scoukjr:
VM Samsung Intercept won't get into diag mode

I am having the same issue with my VM samsung intercept not going to diag mode. When I press ##8778# it does not do anything. I have anotehr VM intercept with Sprint ROM and it works fine there but the problem is that data does not work on that phone when on virgin mobile
[Intercept General] demonstrate:
Go into wireless networks and enable dialup mode, cdma workshop and/or QPST can now detect the phone if proper modem drivers are installed.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ccart:
I have a very strange bug since downloading and installing the latest OTA update. I'm just running a stock system if you need to know.

Basically after the update I went to messages and some old messages I have are shown as being received from the completely wrong person :S These messages were not originally received on my desire HD but I put them all on it when I got the phone. The original person who sent them is in my contact list and linked with their facebook account and all that. Before the update it was showing the messages as being sent from the correct person.

Is there any way to fix this...it's very frustrating as there are over 50 messages which it has done this for.

I cannot say if it's doing it with new messages as that person is away on holiday so I can't check but messages received on my DHD from them seem to be ok...it's only happened with the messages I transferred onto the phone.

Thanks
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ccart:
Also I've now tried backing up all those messages to my gmail account using the SMS Backup+ app. They appear on my gmail from the original sender, then I deleted them off my phone and restored them using the app but it goes back to being shown as the wrong person (it keeps linking it to the same wrong person). The only details I have of the wrong person are what has been sync'd from facebook. There is no connection between them and the original sender (and I've checked all the contact links).

Also I wanted to try deleting that wrong person and then restoring the messages but I cannot figure out how to delete them off the phone. They are only on the phone because of the facebook contact sync so when I try delete contact it gives me a list of my contacts which they are not on as they're only in the 'people' section. I guess deleting them of facebook would work but I don't want to do that if possible.

Sorry if this is getting confusing.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robE9:
well, tried to unlink facebook contacts with your contacts ?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ricocchet:
I have this problem as well, only happened after the latest update.

I think to rectify this a new update will be released from HTC as this bug was also present on the original Desire phone, and resolved with a update.

Very annoying I agree, lets hope its fixed soon.

Just out of interest which country are you in and which network are you on?

Im in UK and on T-Mobile.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ccart:
I'm in the UK on o2 but the phone was bought new unlocked.

I even went as far as deleting the person off facebook. The messages then appeared as they should from the original contact but I then re-added that person and as soon as they accepted it linked the messages back to them. Its so strange as these people have nothing to do with each other, their names aren't even similar.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ricocchet:
I rectified this problem by conducting a hard reset.

Probably not the news you want to hear, but it solved the problem for me.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ccart:
Well I thought about it but decided to contact HTC support first. They suggested that I backup all my contacts to my SD card then delete them all off the phone. I really didn't see how this would help since the person being linked to the messages wasn't a 'contact' he was just added to the People app by facebook.

Also another thing I noticed is that on facebook some people choose to put their phone numbers up which get put on the phone when you sync your facebook contacts with the phone. This particular person decided to be clever and instead of putting actual numbers they put things like 'Mobile: I'm not telling you' so the number was saved on the phone as 'I'm not telling you'. I decided to go in and edit these on the phone (cause you can't delete them) to just numbers i.e. '12345' so that none of his numbers were text.

Then in desperation I went and did what HTC recommended, deleting my contacts and restoring them and the problem was fixed!!!! :D

Unfortunately I can't confirm which of the 2 methods I tried actually work cause I did them without checking to see if they problem had been fixed in between.

So for anyone else with this problem. Check the person who the messages are being linked to, if they have text for their phone numbers, edit them to numbers (any numbers). If this doesn't work go to People>Menu>Import/Export>Export to SD card, then select all the contacts. Then in People go to Menu>Delete>Menu>Select all and confirm. Then restore the contacts by going to People>Menu>Import/Export>Import from SD card and that should do it!!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] nayk@in.com:
Hi,

I've a htc tilt phone with windows mobile 6.1 and ROM version 3.57.502.2.WWE.

I set backlight turn off after 10 seconds during battery power and after 1 minute for AC power. But unfortunately it is not turning off automatically, instead backlight dims to lowest brightness. Is there any option to auto off backlight when phone is idle. Thanks in advance.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Hakim Rahman:
to overcome the problem of backlights on the device, you should use the Hot Fix Baxklight :rolleyes:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] myc:
Hi tried it on my TyTN II but is still as originally described. I compared the backlit OFF with my other Asus P535 and is really off compared to just a slightly dimmed display on TyTN II.

ROM ver 1.82.77.0 WWE
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Hakim Rahman:
if so you just use this small utility to change backlight settings via registry :):)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] myc:
Hakim the tweak fro backlit is only for Keyboard.. I am looking at general backlit tweak
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Hakim Rahman:
just let you try the tweak registry

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Backlight\

- AcTimeout = 60

- AutoSensor = 1

- BatteryBacklight = 40

- BatteryTimeout = 15

- m_ACTimeout = 0

- m_BatteryTimeout = 0
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Hakim Rahman:
or you can use this :)

Thanks but it doesnt work on FRF83 Build. It work on finally on FRF22D the second FROYO update that droid 1 got in late august. Beside Early august First froyo update FRF01.
[Wildfire Android Development] cow_trix:
So I'm trying to root my Telstra Wildfire, following a guide at myrootedandroid.com

I've installed the driver, and I'm trying to run Unrevoked 3.2.1. One time the driver showed up in Device Manager as Android 1.0, and it was then I was able to install the new driver, which worked and showed up as the Android Bootloader Interface. However, now it will only come up as ADB.

When I run Unrevoked, it sits and waits for the device, and I think these two things are related.

Thanks in advance, and Merry Christmas!
[Wildfire Android Development] brilldoctor:
Have you installed froyo? If so that is your problem
[Wildfire Android Development] cow_trix:
I have not. 2.1, update 1.

I got Unrevoked to run now, but I have no idea if it worked. How do I tell if I've rooted it or not? I still can't uninstall stock programs.
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
Have you got a SuperUser Icon? Try installing apps like SetCPU. If they do install, its rooted.
[Wildfire Android Development] Rapt0rGT:
Does Unrevoked work on a telstra Wildfire? Im new here and inexperienced so was wondering if its different radio band (HSPA 850/2100) alters the phone's ability to be rooted with Unrevoked?

Does unrevoked change the radio drivers?
[Wildfire Android Development] cow_trix:
Yeah, I finally worked this out. I'm on Telstra, I rooted it and installed a custom ROM, and it works perfectly. No difficulties whatsoever, except now I don't have crappy Bigpond apps cluttering up my screen!

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] deadmansink:
All it is is more storage for apps/games; the bigger the data.img the more stuff you can have on your phone. Check my thread for a peek at an app that can change it all the way up to 2gb comfortably.
[G Tablet General] necromonger89:
How is it that I see alot of people benchmarking 2400+ on the benchmark? I have done the benchmark on the TnT Lite 2.4.0 and Vegan beta4 and both performed around 600-800. This is just from regular flash. Is it overclocking or killing all apps other than the benchmark test before proceeding with test? Does the livewalpaper matter?

Thanks!
[G Tablet General] rob_z11:
I get consistent 2300+, and what you are getting is the behavior of wakeup bug in which when tablet wakeup from the long sleep like overnight, it gets stuck on 500+ quadrant score with subpar performance.
[G Tablet General] rushless:
TnT results should be around:

1800 for 2.2

2400 for 2.4 though 3.1

I had 570 average scores using TnT 3.1 (out of sleep mode or also perhaps a combo of apps- not sure what consistently caused it) and rolled back to 3.0. Could not figure out why, but rolling back to 3.0 made things 2400 again and got me out of lag city.
[G Tablet General] usafle:
Just did mine on TnT Lite 3.1.1 and got a score of CRAP.. never mind.. it just Force Closed on me before I could remember what it was. LOL

Standby... time to re-do it.

Ok result is: 2542
[G Tablet General] jimcpl:
I can confirm for stock TNT 3053, about 1800+ consistently.

Jim
[G Tablet General] necromonger89:
I just killed all apps except for 4 essential apps. Got a lower score of 591. The tablet seems responsive to me. Even played some dungeon heros and I did not experience any lag.

I will have to benchmark the other two tablets and see how they do.

Edit: Redid the benchmark after a reboot and got 2356! which is a significant increase-value wise. My eyes and perception of time deceive me though as I do not notice a difference in usability from when I got the 500-600 scores recently to the 2356 after reboot. I will look into the calendar and autostart problems, see if those are what are keeping my scores down.
[G Tablet General] japhule:
Reboot, kill any running apps and you should get some high scores (2000+).
[G Tablet General] jimcpl:
Did 2 more tests, after pressing power button to wake Gtab, and got 1800+ for each test. Didn't do anything special like killing tasks. Again, this is with 3053 stock.

Jim
[G Tablet General] Neoprimal:
1800+ avgs seem to be the norm for stock on this device.

I don't know if the 2000+ scores are due to real performance gains or because of the partitioning and swap used in prepping the installation of those ROMs. Since Quadrant is synthetic it doesn't handle certain 'optimizations' added by code well and may misreport the scores. In reality 2000+ may really be 1800 or less, and 600 may also be running higher than reported.

Quadrant Advanced is better in that it gives you details. Much of the score we get on the G Tablet is from the powerful CPU and the abundant memory. TnT lite and VegaN may show 'boosts' to things like the I/O which is normally what is misrepresented as it's not weighted in the app. This is why many Galaxy S phones got 'fake' 2000+ scores due to the Lag Fix and in real testing they were performing at nominally higher than their 900 avging stock, but nowhere close to 2200 which is what most would avg. Testing a Vibrant with lag fix reporting 23xx in fact wasn't even working as fast/quick as a desire HD at 19xx.

I still haven't been able to get my device to slow down after sleep, so I guess that's something I'll have to do when I wake up later. Maybe a longer sleep time will aid me in achieving this. I have also tried everything to get the battery to drain faster, just in case there is some correlation...but I'm hovering at 84% and it's bedtime (according to my wife :rolleyes:).

If anyone else out there has Quadrant Advanced and is on stock and getting the slowdown - if you'd run it and give me some numbers I'd really appreciate it.

Numbers for stock 3899 + Google Apps are as follows:

Avg: 1917 in 3 runs. The avg isn't a calculation, it just means that's the score I got on the 3rd run. Under optimal conditions, the CPU should have maxed out by the 3rd run - but some people keep doing it and use the score that tapers off as max. It should get between 1830 and 1930 with stock.

CPU: 4916

Mem: 2730

IO: 1159

2D: 200

3D: 582

I expect the CPU number to be less than 1/2 during a 'slowdown'.

I expect the rest to be roughly the same.

If you're running a ROM like VegaN or TnT...I'm expecting everything to be the same except I/O which will be higher and maybe 2D/3D because of the newer Tegra drivers.

Update! Finally the pad slowed down just now. It's showing 35% on the battery meter. Not that there's any correlation but I've linked it - just because that's the only time I see the slowdown.

Total: 441

CPU: 918

Memory: 547

IO: 293

2D: 47

3D: 398

The slowing of the CPU has taken a toll on everything else. I thought the rest would look alright but that was stupid on my part. When you run a notebook in low power mode (ex: clock it at less than max), it affects performance across the board - so there was no reason that this should be different. Just wasn't thinking :/

Anyway, there we have it. Now to find a way to fix it permanently.

I'm going to set my wifi to turn off when my screen goes off to see if that helps as someone else noted somewhere.

I've formatted everything on my eris using ClockWorkMod Recovery v2.5.0.1. When i say everything i mean: /boot, /system, /data, /cache, and the sdcard. I did this because i kept getting stuck on the three skateboarding androids screen after trying to do the dual boot thing from ADX. Anyways, my question is whether or not i am still able to load a ROM and if someone could help with that.

Your help will be greatly appreciated

Thanks
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Conap:
I think it's a little extreme to format every thing on the phone but that being said have you tried putting a rom back on to the sd card and attempting to flash it? Does it give an error?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emnetashenafi:
I guess formatting everything was the answer because doing a wipe + dalvik wipe wasn't enough the other times. Its working now that I have KaosFroyo v39 on it. Thanks for your help.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hotstuff5964:
So today I finally took the leap and flashed my phone (I've had it since it launched). I flashed it with Axura 2.2 and everything went great. I was playing around with it for a few hours, then I got greedy and decided to add the Voodoo lag fix, and this is where things got messed up. Basically, it didn't take, i got a female robot voice telling me I didn't have enough space available. So after that the phone was still working as normal, but I lost all my info saved in the internal memory and the phone started acting weird and wasn't booting up properly. So I did some reading and came to the conclusion that i should go back to stock and start all over again.

That's where I'm stuck right now. I'm trying to use Odin to restore to stock, I downloaded all the necessary files, and entered them into the proper fields in Odin. But, when I connect the phone (In downloading mode) it doesn't say [com7] in Odin like it's supposed to, it says [com3] instead.

And that's where I'm stuck at. Any idea where I screwed up and how to unscrew it up? :) Thanks....

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hotstuff5964:
Odin won't do anything for me with [com3]

I actually got it go to [com4] earlier, Odin did it's job and completed. Once I rebooted the phone, it still wasn't right. It opened up to that screen where you use the volume buttons to move, then press power to enter, like if it was still rooted. I clicked on reboot and it started back up like normal. So I was getting ready to flash axura again, I downlaoded OCLF, titanium, and rom manager again. But when I clicked on the OCLF app, EVERYTHNG was unavailable. So I figured I would try and restore to stock again. And, now I'm stuck there again. I'm getting the [com3] thing again, the phone is in downloading mode of course, but now, i have some red letters on top of the screen that say, "keypressed, 164"

:\
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gtiryan:
I'll give you my two cents since I had to learn about ODIN the hard way earlier this week. It doesn't matter what com port it shows (mine showed com1 I think, but never 3 or 7). I know you said you were going back to stock, but does that mean your are going back to JFD, or something else? Do you have the 512 pit and the right tar file? Are you repartitioning or not? I certainly don't have all the answers, but it's still a little too fresh in my head to forget. Also once you get back to root, I would highly recommend Nero v3 (I don't run Voodoo. Haven't really understood the advantages/disadvantages, plus it seems like it could be over my head), it's a really great ROM and some of the new mods are starting to come out.....
