im having an issue with rotation. for some reason opera will only rotate from portrati to landscape sometimes.
i installed gyrator2 and on the black screen it also doesnt seem to pickup the difference between portrait and landscape.
i have calibrated and it says successful, i also know the sensors are working as i can play the ball sensor game fine.
any help appreciated.
Im having the same problem sometimes.
i have not installed Gyrator yet.
im not sure why the levels game works but gyrator doesnt seem to see the settings, is anyone else having this issue? im reluctant to get a replacement as the balance game shows it working fine.
Sometimes mine wont rotate but that is due to the phone being more flat than stood up when i rotate it.
Also i think that if the processor is doing something at the time, like booting up Opera, it doesnt pick up the change in rotation and stays in landscape.
Try it when Opera has fully loaded and make sure the phone is not flat and see if that helps.
that doesnt help, gyrator does not even register a change, it just says undeterminable or 'face up'. seems to register face down but not portrait or landscape.
I sometimes have to give my HD a gentle tap to remind it to switch
It's kinda cute really - turn it round, nothing happens, give it a little nudge to wake it up LOL
Yes, I do realise quite how sad that makes me sound... LOL

Oh, the oddness. My phone registers everything except face down!! Meaning, it won't mute when I place it face down (have the option activated in the registry). So strange. This probably goes a way in explaining why some people couldn't get the face down to work, but that doesn't help, what would help is to know how the heck different phones register different gyrometer activity.
Probably because of all the different calibration tools out there, because honestly, I hadn't tried the face down thing before installing and using stuff like GRemote, Gyrator, GController, etc.

A wise decision
I had the same. But it seems like the problem occures only when Opera is loading page. later on everything seems to be OK.
I haven't got any aditional software installed
Is there any way to keep track of the amount of data transferred through GPRS.
I currently subscripe to 200mb transfer per month, so I would like to keep track of this or it could become pretty expensive for me
If you google, you'll find a couple of commercial ones, but I found this for free a while ago. To be honest, I haven't a clue where I got it from, but it was definitely free.
Ave it!
Thats exactly what I had in mind!
Thanks alot!!

You're welcome
It's a good app - very basic, but does exactly what you need. If I remember correctly, it also ensures that it's always running, until you manually stop it, so if you reboot your phone when it's running, it starts when the phone boots up again.
This looks pretty cool.
Shame it's not got a nicer looking icon
Scary how much data browsing full web pages uses but this device is just sooooo good at it

Yeah it sure works perfectly.
Nice to be able to set the date when it's supposed to restore as well.
Actually I don't find it in the task manager, at least not as a program, so it's no risk that one closes it unintentionally, which is great. It's really super
+1
Thanks
it'S a trial version ... go to "about" and it ask you for a serial number.
It most certainly is.
Well, as long as it's not a trial that will expire it works just fine for me, I don't need any other functions.
I seem to be getting red crosses in the connections is that normal?
That happens when your connection isn't active. If you start surfin the cross will probably disappear
Seems to work so far. 25kb just for email (imap4 headers) and weather update But again the problem that the connection doesn't disconnect by itself after 60sec (seems to happen when I update the weather, otherwise it seems to disconnect fine)
Did you do the tweak so it disconnects?
Remember to disable all auto-update, including weather and TIME!
Then it works with the autodisconnect.

Yes, I installed the cab and every auto-update is off. when browsing with opera or watching youtube it disconnects, but when I update weather manually it doesn't disconnect. wired.

I am running DarchLegend 4.1, and my phone gets abnormally hot when it's just sitting in my pocket, receiving a text every couple hours. I would like to know why this is, if it's normal, and should I do anything about it? Thanks in advance

Sounds like a program is running in the background. I would get a task manager open and frequently check to see what app is staying open the most.

if its hot where your at with alot of sun and no air all phones would sweat in your pockets.
I could put a case on my phone n it would get hot regardless
I think its a 2.1 issue. I have it happen ocassioanly on damagecontrol. Going into *#*#4636#*#* and going into phone settings and hitting menu> change radio. Then change to CDMA auto prl.

Yea, so ive brought this up before and i see the power button still being the first mechanical button to break over time. Mainly because you have to press it constantly just to use the phone or wake the phone up to use.
So heres some ideas, correct me or critique them, and reply if theres already good alternatives/apps out there.
I know some of these ideas can drain the battery, but work with me on this...
- When an sms/mms is received i want the screen to auto turn on. Windows mobile did this from what i remember and it was a novelty.
- Be able to turn the screen on by swiping one or two of the lower capacitive buttons instead of pressing the power button.
- Have the screen dim to its lowest setting instead of fully turning off. (dunno how battery draining this can be) Windows mobile did this as well.
- Have an app monitor the motion sensor in the phone to where if you pick the phone up from a flat surface (horiz position) the screen auto turns on.. and maybe an extra option of having the screen turn on if theres a shake or jostle (of course you could adjust the sensitivity). But having this app running in the background all the time could be draining. I mean shiii.. the phone knows when youre in call and if your phone is up to your head so why cant we have that feature to turn on the screen instead of using the power button.
I would pay good money for someone to develop this. An all in one app that includes all those options. I'll do the graphic work if need be.
Most of that seems a little out there and un-doable, but I do know that Handcent has an option to turn on your phone when a sms/mms is received with a small box in the center of the screen for a quick reply. Hope that helps a little.
^^^ beat me to it.
if you use smspopup or handcent, they both have option for the screen to come on when you get a new text message.
they also popup a box to read the message and have the option to quick reply or go to the messaging app. you can turn this off tho and just have the screen wake up for any where from 10 seconds to like 5 minutes.

How so? Phone turns quiet when picked up im sure it can be set to turn on when picked up. SMS as someone mentioned, handcent does. Apparently "screebl" does the screen turn on, testing now.
you can use an app called no lock that will allow you to use the volume buttons to wake the phone, i don't think that you'll be able to wake by using that capacitive buttons - this would essentially mean that your phone would never sleep.
and I'm almost positive that you can set up a profile in tasker to take care of the dimming instead of turning off the screen. In fact, you could probably set up most, if not all of these through various tasker profiles.
Not to mention how much battery it would waste polling the accelerometer to see if it's been moved.

actually those are all things that seem pretty mainstream from an OS derived from the most robust OS out there [linux]. Yes, those can all be done on android. Unfortunately there is a lack of programmers ... Especially to something that probably wont appeal to the ones we do have...
Also some kernel modifications will be necessary...
Im sorry i cant do this for you... If i could I would... Just because our phones can... and a couple of those things should already be with us...
Someone help us!!
Coming from the iphone. I loved the look of the evo... but I now miss the home button for this exact reason. Lol
The swiping of the captive keys sounds great. I doubt its doable though..
EDIT: ok, screebl is cool. And eliminates the need to press the power to put it to sleep... but it doesn't wake it up when picked up, so it solves half the problem.
...in 1943, I killed a drifter.
interesting suggestions so far.
i'd rather keep the default stock sms app rather than delving into something 3rd party.
i'll try the handcent, but doubt i keep it long..
thanks everyone, lets keep brainstorming!!

How exactly did you uninstall? Titanium?.

screebl may be of help.
I received my honor 7 this week and im generally pleased with it.
The only issue thats starting to get annoying is the lag and stuttering while scrolling through any menu or app.
I've made sure its in performance mode. I assume the govenor is being to aggressive on the downclocking.
Anyone else having this problem

Stutter and lag can happen once in a while, which is there on even the best of phones. Besides that you might notice a small lag if you restart the phone and stock apps start for the first time. Or soon after installing a new rom might lag as well for a minute.
Did factory resetting fix this problem? I am having the same lag in scrolling, since I received the phone. Am thinking about factory resetting now.

Are you using the default theme? I have noticed that with some of the themes I have tried there is a problem with lag or stuttering between home screens. This is not the case with most themes, but some of them seem a bit badly put together as they can cause problems. The one I'm using at the moment (Lyle's Golden Age) is completely lag-free. I found the original theme so ugly that I removed it immediately and I can't remember if it had a problem.
This problem seems to be of a software nature and if you use Nova launcher there should be no problem.

I am not using the default theme. I tried Lyle's Golden Age to check, but still stuttering.
I use the Google Now Launcher, where it is really obvious.
When I swipe to the left to get to the now part, the device has to load the list. Takes like half a second.

Ok then, this is nothing I have seen at all! In your situation I would suspect a bad app and so I would firstly try to uninstall apps one at a time and if this didn't help, factory reset.
BTW, what is your firmware version and where did you buy it?

Bought it from Vmall, EU version.
Firmware version PLK-L01C432B121.
I might just do a factory reset.
Strange things are happening, and I think this lagging is happening since the first boot.
Your phone is 100% smooth?
Like if you open an app that has a scrolling list and immediately start to scroll, it doesn't lag and keep running a little bit when you stop?

I can only remember two apps from the top of my head that have had this behaviour, and that is the default web browser and Tapatalk. I use Chrome for web browsing and with it there are no problems at all. Tapatalk has improved over the latest versions, so if I just wait a second before starting to scroll there is no problem.
Other apps are super smooth right away. Name an app that you have problems with and I will test it.

I just downloaded doubletwist player, where if I add a podcast (W&W mainstage) it will lag hard if I scroll up and down fast the list of episodes.
The whole app overall is a little bit slow for some reason.
If you want to try that one, I would be very interested to know what you experience.

I tried it a bit and Went to the Games and Hobbies pod section and it seems completely smooth on my phone. The list and icons has to be fetched first, but apart from the online downloading time the list is smooth to scroll. There are hundreds of pods so you can't expect them to load instantly. When it says Reading... at the bottom it has to stop and this has nothing to do with the phone.

I have a hard time distinguishing between something just still loading in while scrolling or just lagging.
I took the same list you just said, and if I load like 200 things and then scroll trough that list it is smooth until is suddenly jumps a bit.
Then it is smooth again, and then again a little jump and skipping a few podcasts and stuff.
That doesn't happen for you?

No, if I let it load 200 podcasts and scroll fast through that list it runs comlpetely smooth and stops only if I put my finger on it. It rolls almost all the way down to the last entry if I swipe fast with my finger.

Do that and do NOT reinstall a backup of apps or settings, only contacts or so. As little as possible as some app or setting, in that order, probably is the cause of your problem.
Good luck!!

If you have sd-card mounted, first try to unmount and remove this, it might have problems that result in stutter.
I already did the factory reset several times and Updated the phone to B140 and continue with a lot of lag in apps and between screens.
I come from a Nexus5, I don't know if is my perception of smooth that is to high.
Anyone else feel the same?
I dont have problems either.
Was really smooth on B140, now with Android 6 even more.
