This is funny.

I had my Xoom on a battery for 4 Days and like 17 hours without charging it. And it was only at 30%! Now, it only had minimal use, of course. I didn't play with it all that much until I received my screen protector. All data services were disabled. WiFi on. So, that's still amazing to have almost 5 days without a charge if you're not using it.

The battery life on the Xoom is excellent!

My Xoom matches my old iPad 1, about 10 hours of straight use (reading Kindle books with Wifi/3G on and push Exchange email) or days with mixed use and standby.
[Xoom General] touretts69:
I'm running on 1 day 16 hours and I'm still at 40%.
[Xoom General] frenzy757:
dont listen to that article...the battery life is (in use case scenario) as good as my iPad...

meaning, I don't have to worry about it on a daily basis like my iPad. I think the iPad may get one more hour of vid playback, but the difference between 9 and 10 hours is not huge really.

I went on a ski trip recently and did not bring my xoom...went from Friday morning and plugged it in Sunday at midnight and the Xoom still had 30% left. I did a lot of music playing, web browsing, some gaming, etc.

Standby is definitely longer than 10-12 hours without a doubt.

Hello,

new to posting here! To be honest I didnt read that first post as mine seems to last ok, but thats where I wanted some help. Since I got mine this Sunday, when I have it fully charged or not, my battery seems to go down about 10% or so during the night when I sleep. Thats about 8 hours I leave it unplugged. Is that to be considered normal? I am just coming off the ipad so 10% feels a little bit more then I'm used too.

I leave wifi on all the time, but no bluetooth, no location services or whatnot, I do leave on that background sync though, would that really drain me that much though during non usage time?

Again, not major but I would like my battery to last as long as possible =]

Thank you for your help in advance!

BTW, love this Xoom!
[Xoom General] StrifeSoldierVII:
I put up a good comment at that site. What a douche that guy is. I think that article should be taken down for retarded opinions/claims. I know they said everyone has a right to an opinion, but... this isn't an opinion it's a complete BS claim to try and make people look at the iPad. Hehe.. sorry to burst your bubble there guy, but... us Android users already know the truth about how awesome we are.

Hi,

[EDIT: Yes external SDcard is required for storage in CM7]

I successfully installed CM7/14 recently on internal flash, with Dalingrin's

1'st 3/8/11 OC kernel. It runs pretty well.

One issue I am unclear on and am having problems searching for the answer:

Is an external SDCard expected to be installed for storage?

Some of the applications I am trying to run, for example "ezPDF Reader", fail on

starting saying "Can't access SD Card" and "ROM manager" gives a similar

warning message.

So either:

1. I missed a step somehow in installation, related to remapping external

SDcard to internal memory (the /mnt/emmc partition I assume).

2. Some apps are just broken (perhaps related to compatibility mode?)

3. CM7 (Gingerbread) is assuming an external SDcard is always present?

Thanks in Advance,

Peter
[Nook Color General] will2live:
yes after having installed CM7 with the bootable sdcard you will in fact need/want a sdcard in the device while running CM7 so you have storage. That said I would NOT use the sdcard you have setup for installing/flashing ROMs. Otherwise it turns into a pain in the neck if something goes wrong and you need to reflash for some reason.

speaking for myself as I like to play around and flash different stuff all the time I have 4 different sdcards for use in my Nook. One 16Gb setup to boot and run Honeycomb right from the sdcard. I have another for storage ( 32Gb) when I'm running a ROM that is installed on the eMMC. The other 2 cards are bootable sdcards for installing and backing up. One is setup for ext4 like what is used on CM7, the other I have is also bootable but has CWR 3.0.0.5 for ROMS that DO NOT use ext4 and only use ex2/ext3.
[Nook Color General] noisufnoc:
So I downloaded the Nookie Froyo v0.6.8 8GB card image, extracted it, and dd'ed the image to my 8GB Sandisk Class-2 uSD. Everything worked as expected, I was able to mount the card after creating it, and my NC booted w/o issue. The ROM ran pretty well, but was a little slow at times. After doing some research here, I ordered a 8GB Transcend Class-6 uSD card with the expectation that the faster card would perform better. I followed the same procedure, dd'ed the image to the new card, however after that was complete I saw the following output in gparted

I am unable to mount any of the partitions, however the NC boots on the card. Performance seems similar to the Class-2 card, and I periodically have force closure problems with basic apps (Email, Walpapers, etc). Could this be related? Should I have done something different with the Class-6 card vs the Class-2? I've already tried wiping the card, formatting it all as one big FAT32, and then re-dd'ing the data with the same result as above.

Edit: For example, it just force closed Time and Date while I was trying to change the timezone.
[Nook Color General] noisufnoc:
Okay, after booting off of the card I am able to insert it into my machine and mount all the partitions just fine. Does the NC do something to the file systems?
[Nook Color General] noisufnoc:
Okay, everything was fine but now all apps are FC'ing when I try to launch them. I think there's a problem here. It seems like it all starts with a force close message from Google Services Framework (com.google.process.gapps), then all hell breaks loose.

Hello all.

I have problem.

We have Rom for our phone on nandroid leak of milestone.

So, one problem here - when listening fm radio when trying to change volume with Volume Up and Volume Down keys - android changes Ringer Volume.

There is no such thing as Radio Volume in programs like audio effects e.t.c.

Can someone explaine me - where is Audio channels keeping in android?

Like Ringer Volume, Alarm Volume, Multimedia Volume e.t.c. ?

my first rom was evervolv for droid incredible. i decided to go with magnolia rom.. it all worked up to getting to the lock screen after flashing it. the lock screen wouldnt read my touch.. and i switched back to evervolv. it worked after i did. then i decided to go with Warm Z TwoPointTwo... and it did it again.. i'm getting sick of the same ole same old and i need help.. anyone have suggestions to fix this mess so i can get the roms i want???
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smtom:
Are you saying when you flash a different ROM, the touchscreen is not working, and if so, are you running the kernel that comes with the ROM, or something other before first boot?

Are you fully wiping data/cache/dalvik prior to flashing the other ROMs?

Do you have ample space on your SD card?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KrisPeezy:
make sure you clear data/cache/dalvik and all that jazz.

you can also try flashing a new kernel in recovery, that might do something...
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatalicZ:
yeah i flashed a different rom to my phone and then it messes up.. the screen doesnt read my touch.. i restored my evervolv for it and it works fine again.. but i dont know how to flash a "kernel" that would work with the rom i want.. doesnt that come with a new custom rom?? and what is dalvik? i just press factory reset or whatever..
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donnyp1:
Dalvik is under the advanced tab in recovery. I do data, cache, dalvik before flashing a new row. I do cache, dalvik, battery(also under advanced) before flashing kernel. Dl krnel to root of sd card, flash in recovery like rom. I nvr use rom mgr for flashing anymore. Make sure u use sense kernel for sense rom, aosp kernel for aosp roms. Couple of good threads on kernels. Chads kernels work great for my phone, but its preference. Any problems just use the search function on xda, cant find answer then just ask. Good luck.

yes, i am one who likes to flash then flush
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sgtagem:
This sounds like the same issue you would get with a kernal that is not compatable with a rom. or a theme/mod ment for a different rom. I run evervolv myself and if I try anything else i need to clear/factory reset everything before i flash
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatalicZ:
i'm very grateful for your guys help. but.. i just ran into that same fix again. i flashed another kernel so i could run the rom i want and it still did it.. so i need to know the kernels that are compatible with roms.. specifically the one i want. (right now its Warm Z TwoPointTwo) but if there is a thread with this info i will try and find it. and also do i flash the kernel for the rom after i flash the rom or do i flash the rom then boot up then go to recovery and apply the kernel.. i'm sorry if i'm sounding too noobish.. i'm learning. very slowly lol
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smtom:
You are flashing Sense kernel with Sense ROM, yes? The kernel is flashed AFTER the ROM install.

[Galaxy Tab General] kenfly:
Not until the source for honeycomb is released.
[Galaxy Tab General] Bxsteez:
I personally agree with the OP. I think the section need to be split. I don't think the titles are always explicit and can be confusing. They are less confusing when you've been around for a while because the Tab forum has like no movement as was said earlier. I'm just not sure how they can split since some of the euro roms work on CDMA devices.
[Galaxy Tab General] IP IHI II IL:
I have to say that I too agree. Nothing is more frustrating for a CDMA SGT owner looking for goodies, than to have to scroll through countless GSM posts. Not all posts are clear, some say only (ROM) which works fine for any other topic, but as long as there are 2 versions of the product, there should be 2 versions of threads. Just my 2 cents...

Sent from my EVO using ESP.
[Galaxy Tab General] GRiM-UK:
I see no valid reason for this forum to be split, it would do more harm then good. What it infact needs is some sort of mandatory tagging scheme like the HD2 section has.

Devs need to tag their releases clearly and informatively to a set standard so users of their work have a clear and expected way of getting that info.

Example...

[10.MAR.11][ROM][GSM/CDMA] Release Name/Version [KERNEL]

This way you can clearly see the date and other needed info just by checking titles of topics.

You guys should visit the HD2 section and see how organised things are there, Yes there is waaaaay less dev work in the Tab section but better to start as you mean to go on.
[Galaxy Tab General] Dan Miller:
I agree with both Grim and the OP. :)

I think what is desired is an easier way to find what will work with your device.

I moved to the Verizon version of this device from an original Moto Droid. With phones it seemed easier. If I was in the MotoDroid area, I knew that everything worked... (yeah, right) at least it was supposed to.

Here, it is much harder.

So either a consistent method of tagging a file posting or splitting. Either way solves the real goal.

Just my 14 cents...
[Galaxy Tab General] GANJDROID:
I don't see what that has to do with this..

Burning think its clear enough with the titles tbh. They state if they're CDMA or GSM.

Hello everyone,

I'm a newbie here. Just flashed my phone for the very first time today after stalking this forum ever since i got my phone!

so today, i flashed from stock Eclair DXJG4 to Simply Galaxy 2.4 SweetHoney

after multiple tries, i finally got the phone to boot and the puple honeycomb animation appeared

soon after, i was at the brand new homescreen.

but i could not find the apps for Phone, Contacts and Messaging (that i know of. Im not sure if there are any other missing apps)

when i opened the app tray, i had 3 pages of apps, with the 3rd page only having 2 apps. so i only have 30 apps in total in my app tray...

Thinking that updating might help, i updated to 2.4.1, but nope..those apps are still missing?

what should i do?

should i download those apps 1 by 1 by extracting from the system file from the zipfile?

or should i just reflash it and hope those apps will appear the 2nd time around?

Ur help is much appreciated! Thanx in advance!:)

Ok, I seem to have missed out on the hype for this AWS firmware. I’m just curious. What’s the advantages? It’s not Gingerbread, correct?

Someone please help a noob out. :confused:
[Streak 5 General] TheManii:
341 is based on android 2.2.2, the difference from 2.2 -> 2.2.2 is security fixes.

341 is the ONLY 2.2.2 based version, all other 3xx versions are only 2.2

(333 is 2.2.1, but it's not important seeing as we have the 341 dump also)

Until dell releases newer versions, this is the only way we can run 2.2.2 (or unless dell gives us the driver source so we can get some serious firmware hacking done)

3g speed is determined by what model streak you have, it just so happens that 2 aws streaks happen to have newer/unreleased builds. They have different modem configurations.

It's in the works!!! There are many Rom developers working on this.
[EVO 4G General] kingdazy:
the only real problems with these is the 4g. so far, all of these are ports from other phones (like Warm-Z), and missing this feature because of lack of (access to) drivers, and unlikely to get it anytime soon. (correct me if I'm wrong?) as I actually get good 4g coverage, that's what keeps me from using these roms as DDs.

I guess the exception is the CM7 ROMs, but then there are GPS issues... and no Sense, obviously. ;)
[EVO 4G General] aimbdd:
wrong. the 4g from cm can be implemented into other roms, and has been already in several. Also gps issues are fixed by resetting the gps in a sense rom.

Its just up to the devs to add it. There are more important things to get working before 4g though ;)
[EVO 4G General] kingdazy:
I assume you are referring to some sense2 + GB ROM? the OP was asking specifically about that, and the only one I know of is the warmZ, that (as far as I know) has no 4g yet...? (admitidly I am not the flashaholic I once was, don't keep up on the nightlies like I used to)
