Seeing as we can all tether our phones as wireless broadband connections for our home networks, I'm curious how much those of us who tether use for data each month.

How much BW does everyone use and how much is too much?
[Fascinate General] jiggaman508:
I average around four gigs. I have broadband at home that's just general use and occasional tethering to my laptop while I'm out and about
[Fascinate General] lowtech80:
I use about 2 gigs on average.
[Fascinate General] iofthestorm:
I'm on the 150MB plan to save money so... yeah... it's actually not terrible though, with news readers like Pulse and dedicated forum apps like XDA I can read a lot of text on a commute and not use that much, and I've got wifi 99% of the time so for me a little hassle is worth saving $360 over two years. Although now I'm kind of wishing I got a 1 year contract so I could upgrade again next year when dual core LTE phones hit, but :-/
[Fascinate General] Domush:
Has Verizon ever warned anyone about data over-usage?
[Fascinate General] n0yd:
Between 4-5GB monthly. They've never said a thing about overuse and when I am on the road a lot I tend to use more, as much as 10GB.

Hey guys,

I just switch to Myn's Warm ROM from the Cyanogen-mod ROM. I love the Myn's ROM but one thing I miss that I used a lot from Cyanogen is the Red night vision render effect.

Is there an app out there on the market that can replicate this Red Night vision render effect (red "night mode")?? Or is in there an option in Myn's that I am looking over?

Thanks in advance for your help!

My phone is rooted the old hboot way but I figured I would go all the way with gfree but I'm having some problems. I've got adb working and everything but I think the kernels I have don't work with it. The only kernels I see around here are ones that are said to not work.

I too am stuck at a cyanogen (mod 7) screen. Using 'Rom manager' i attempted to go from cm 6.1.1 to the latest CM 4 but failed to wipe memory. Now i cannot even get into recovery or bootloader... nothing i try will get me out of the cyanogen start screen (blue skateboarding android dude with circling arrow). I've copied esprimg.zip to the sd card but still no luck. Is there anyway to enter the phone prior to the cyanogen start up screen and wipe the memory. If I could get to bootloader or recovery then I can fix this thing... HTC slide... anyone with an idea? Thank you
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sc4bbk:
Pull battery, and then hold Volume Down + Power doesn't get you into bootloader? If not try Back Button + Power, should get you to fastboot. From there you can get into the bootloader.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mickymingjh:
Thank you

finally after letting the phone sit for about 45 min in its hung mode i did as you suggested, removed batt, inserted and quickly held pwr and vol down. the phone went into bootloader. I was able to clear all mem and go into recovery. I loaded cm 6.1.1 from my backup and can now sleep tonight all while I kick myself for not clearing mem before attempting a ROM upgrade. Thank you for the quick assist. Best Rgs

BTW CM7 nightly is running smooth and fine here. I guess either you didn't wipe before flashing CM7 or you didn't update the radio to the latest one?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nocturnal310:
just tried it

that whole concept sony was working on - tapping and sliding up the finger to zoom into a pic is already enabled on this app

thumbnails load so much faster than mediascaped..and once cache is made..its fastt

thumbnails are also big..and scrolling is so smooth.

swiping to change pics is so much more responsive.

finally i can delete the mediascape from the home screen..and enjoy taking pics on my phone.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cebees:
I feel you must miss something....

have you tried those custom rom around?

actually our 2.1 came with stock gallery but sony just hid, which still far better than just pic.

search market for enable gallery, it's small tool to unhide it.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k1sr:
The stock gallery is good, although I think JP is a good bit better... You can do full res zoom, which is great to check if your pics came out good when you take them

Main problems with JP are:

1. Too frequent updates.

2. Full res zoom does not work any more... :(

However, given the frequency of updates, I'm sure they'll fix that soon enough...

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kitsVA:
How is frequent updates a problem?:confused: It's not like we have to re-enter settings after updates.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k1sr:
Nah, tried reboot and everything, but seems to be after a JP update...

I have to re-do all my ignored folders, so yeah, it's a pain...

Agreed, frequent updates shows a developer who cares, but too frequent shows a sloppy developer (IMO)...

Also uses up precious data.

nonetheless, JP still rocks.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diimaan:
once you ignored the folders, JP will keep it ignored!

you can just upgrade a newer version over the older ones...

it forgets only if you clear your cache or change the cache settings!

Thanks for using JP! :)

If you wanted to help in the development of JP you can join as a beta tester or follow this thread!
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stig109:
Nice app, but the map view is way off course! :-)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kounch:
I'm the developer of JP. Thanks for the good comments :)

The fact that settings such as authentication, passwords and excluded folders are lost after clearing the cache is actually a bug... Just fixed it now, and it will be in next release.

It is true that I make frequent updates to the app, but I believe I always add a little something in it to make it worse upgrading. I also try to fix bugs that are discovered... I strongly feel like the overall quality of JP has improved a lot overtime, in the way that I introduce less bugs when I release. This is due to the comments and feedback I receive on the beta channel !

Developing such an application is a real commitment for a single developer. Every feature that is added is hours of work, and hours of sleep time gone away :) Beta tester can verify I work on it a lot on week ends :)

I noticed that within 15 seconds my phone used nearly 2MB of data. I was watching data go up in 3G Watchdog. I didn't have any apps open (other than background apps such as Google Talk, Gmail, the basics).

So I downloaded Network Counter to see which app was using the data. It turns out that it's the Dialer, Android System, and Settings that use significantly more data. That doesn't make sense to me. Any idea why these apps (which I thought didn't use data) use so much more than apps such as Gmail or Google Talk?

Would depend on how often you have your phone synching with google and how many services you sync. I use 10-16 GB of data per month but still have the old unl plan.

Probably there are some apps on ur phone that are set to get updated automatically to newer versions.

Go to ur market app, and uncheck the "allow automatic update" from all of the google/android base apps. If u leave them checked, they would update when they detect a newer version.

u can get the list of all ur apps by clicking the 'my apps' link in market app. u would need to deselect it individually for all the apps.

Hey guys I was wondering which is the most stable version of android rom for both NAND and SD. I need to flash my friends US Tmobile HTC HD2 (carrier unlocked). The problem is that my friend is not into all this. So once i flash her phone she wont make any changes herself.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jasons1004:
my favorites after many trials and frustrations

im on tmobile US with radio 2.14.50 with jdms 1.6.2 NAND all the way

best nand = jdms 1.6.2

everything just works.

battery is great

lots of extra CM like tweaks

best sd = superRam 1.5 by darkstone

its really fast and everything worked for me

battery is ok but not the best sd i tried

just use stock WM rom bc its useless anyway. ha
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ravi.malhotra85@gmail.com:
hey thanks for the reply.

When you say battery is great can you compare your battery performance on win mo 6.5 with nand and sd. My friend barely gets through a day with win mo 6.5.

Also have you or anyone else tried MDJ's CyanogenMod 7 v. 2.4. I was assuming since it has had so many updates till now it would be one of the most stable nand roms available
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jasons1004:
i think battery is much better with nand than winmo mostly bc you can turn off conns easier.

originally with stock winmo batt was bad i needed to seek out charger all the time.

now with nand and jdms 1.6.2 battery lasts throughout the day no prob, with like 75-85 when i get home and that is all conns off xept phone. for like 12-15 hrs.

over night it only drains 4-6 percent everynight

i have tried just about every rom that has been released on this phone but im not ready for ginger only bc not all apps work with it. jdms is the BEST anyway...unless you dont like red batt icon...everything just works.....although the 1.7 upgrade didnt boot for me at all

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheGhost1233:
There are froyo AOSP roms so no sense and a working video recorder, you can also strip Sense roms from the stuff you don't want, just make sure it's not a critical part.

[Intercept General] bliind:
2.1 or 2.2? Lots of development has been done at sdx-developers...

You can achieve root by flashing a custom kernel (such as CrapKernel), or do it manually and keep the stock kernel.. Flashing a custom recovery/kernel is most likely your best option...

step by step root for 2.1: http://forum.sdx-developers.com/index.php/topic,6920.0.html

for 2.2, there is a one-click, but again you can also flash custom recovery/kernel (probably a better option if you want more than just root, but all the fun mods/themes we have over there)

One-click for 2.2: http://forum.sdx-developers.com/index.php/topic,9943.0.html
