[Q] Voltage spikes - Droid X General

I never really bothered messing with battery apps and such, but since I planned on running them when I upgrade to the SGS3 I picked one up and noticed a trend. Every once in a while I get a voltage spike. Any idea's what would cause this?

It would almost seem like the battery is going bad. (which is a possibility) but i don't see big instantaneous drops in the percentage. How old is your battery?? If it is over a year old then it is time to replace it. But if you are going to replace the phone then i dont know if you really want to. Its only about 5 bucks to replace.

Thanks, yeah I'm replacing the phone. If its only $5 I may pick one up anyway as I plan on using the DX as a stand alone music player while I do outside work. I'd rather break the DX than my SGS3.

I use my Droid X while doing yard work quite often, there's not much you can do out there that will harm the device.
Extended batteries (BH6X) can be bought fairly cheaply online.

they are indeed fakes, but many of them have very nice features that Real brand names one doesn't offer
at Deal Xtreme you can also find a lot of those
the Android ones are specially good, as you can pretty much do anything you want with it and make you own ROMs
some other with locked in weird concoction of chinese OS might not be the greatest, but offer full features, and more than regular phones doesn't have
many which caught my eyes were among:
projector
tv
solar powered
crank powered
2 SIM
CDMA + GSM
waterproof
etc...
unfortunately all of them came with crappy OSes
however i really like the projector one, it's soooo cool
thank God , there is no
"HiPhone GaGaXy" or "HiPhone Galaxx" or anything else.
If they put in better displays they could be onto something lol
Read some of the questions. The answers are great.
Q. What resolution camera does it have?
A. It has a 0.3 mega pixel cam which gives ery clear pictures for you.
They can copy everything, it is so amusing and crazy. Such a crazy country.
Here are some pictures of the factory where these may have been made from....

Can you believe it? That is their solution. Sorry for such life.
Actually Foxconn makes the genuine Apple devices, not the fakes.

[Q] Who wants to trade their AT&T version for my T-Mobile Version?

Hi everyone. I've had a nexus one since Jan. when it came out, and I was still back with T-Mobile. Skip to June, the iPhone4 comes out, and I get drawn in by all the hype. I signed a 2-year contract (unfortunately), and now I'm stuck with AT&T.
Problem is, iOS is just really not for me. I really miss Android and my Nexus One. I miss it so much that I bought a microSIM adapter and I use my Nexus One instead of my iPhone4 even though I can only use the edge network.
So yeah, I'm basically looking for someone who is looking to switch over to T-Mobile (Their prices are great! I would if I could!) and also has a Nexus One that they would like to swap. My Nexus has signs of wear, but it still looks beautiful. Nothing is broken, it still works exactly as if it were new.
If nobody wants to do the trade, can someone at least tell me where I would be able to find someone who does?

I would but how can we do this I got shafted on my last trade

Oh God, I didn't think about how tough it would be to exchange phones online.
I'm not sure how well Norton Security "locks" the phone, but we could both use the app to lock the phones until we've received the other phone. It lets us GPS track it and everything, so if anyone tries anything funny, we would at least have an address.

Don't know if that's over dramatic, not enough safety for you, or what, but send me a private message if you're interested.
Does Norton stay on the phone after a wipe from recovery?

Not unless you move the app to /system/app

Any ideas?
Just now tried it, and was playing dark siders on it. Have you tried un installing and reinstalling? I'm sure you did, but just figured I'd ask just in case...

yup tried that several times, and also re downloaded from market... just doesn't seem to go past the screen in the screenshot
any idea?
Bump, would love to get this working....
Works fine for me too - must be an issue with your device.

Onlive may not be around much longer. At least not in its current form.

They were bought out and put in a protective bankruptcy status that is similar to receivership. Their investors and the receiver/protector have huge vested interest in keeping onlive around. But settop boxes might go the way of the dodo.
Works for me

So after locking and unlocking the boot loader again, and restarting from scratch onlive is working great

Overheating

So I know the phone gets hot but I was watching a flash video on Firefox and the audio got garbled. I closed Firefox immediately and took this screenshot.

Everything else about my N4 is excellent. Well, except battery life. That aside, is this a hardware issue? I hate doing RMAs but I'd hate for my phone to die even more and can't be without a phone.

How many hours do you get screen on?
You could try a kernel w/ undervolting available and see if that helps.
If your phone is rooted and have busy box installed then I'd recommend Bricked kernel. I used to have issue with heat too but after using bricked kernel I have never seen it goes up past 105. Its even rare to see it goes up to 100.
So this could be a kernel issue then? Hm. I'll think about it then. I wanted to keep the phone stock but maybe I'll try the kernel.

from my experience flash always makes the phone run hot. hell anything that uses the CPU at a high utilization for a long amount of time makes it hot, games like GTA Vice City for example

Anyone got their hands on this cradle? The proper model is WCD-800, but $140 a pop is not given away at all.

Thanks LG, this is WAY more useful than a good qi car charging dock. Next can we get an an official led-lit USB cable while we wait for actual accessories we might WANT to use?

$140 to charge your phone?!?! HELL **** NO!!!!!!. Amazing thing is, there are dumb enough people out there to buy it.
too expensive
I think this was aimed at someone who sits at a nice oak desk inside of a plush office all day (lawyer, corporate big wig). Overpriced? Yea more than a little bit when there's cheaper alternatives. Wanna see what dumb people buy? http://www.amazon.com/CTA-Digital-i...0340&sr=8-6&keywords=ipad+potty+training+seat
