I was at the Met game tonight and turned on the 4G on my Evo and to my suprise a STRONG 4G signal inside Citi Field was surfing the web at crazy 4G speeds, then I left and back to 3G.

I want to reach out to others here before I take my Moment back to Best Buy to exchange it for another Moment.
My signal strength fluctuates wildly just sitting in the same spot. With the Hero I got a constant 5 of 6 bars, but the Moment will vary between 0 and 5 of 6 bars. But it's more complicated than that.
It seems that whenever the EVDO data kicks in, it causes the signal strength to drop to 0 or 1 bar. Once the data is idle, the EVDO indicator turns grey and then changes from EV(^v) to EV(D). At that point the single strength will return to 3 or 4 bars.
At times, though not as consistently or often, the EVDO connection will fall back to 1xRTT and will switch between them every few minutes. This will occur even when the signal strength bars are in the 3 to 4 range.
So, the my questions are...
Does the signal strength apply to the data signal or just the voice signal?
Is there any legitimate reason for the signal strength to vary wildly like I've described, even when sitting in the same recliner where the Hero had a constant 5 bar connection and data service that never wavered?
Is anyone else having signal strength and/or data service issues?
Should I exchange the Moment for another Moment or will I likely experience the same issue?
I developed an "heavy" application (700 Mb !). With an "apk installer" application, i can install it on the Nexus One SD card (Froyo "installLocation" option). My application is heavy because of the videos it contains (located in /raw directory). The problem I have, is that it crashes when launched, with this error :

I dont't understand the reason of this error, because when i try the same thing with a lighter application (250 Mb) it runs perfectly. Has anyone of you ever had this kind of problem ? Do you know if there is a size limit for applications to work ?
So my Galaxy s3 all of a sudden started to have stutters, i have a custom rom Foxhound 2.3, and when i try any custom kernel it lags as hell. (Stock also gives stutters so its not kernel related i think)
For example perseus stutters my phone in app drawer and every time i open an application.
Syah 1.8.9. although its better, still have some stutters...
the only one that can have the phone more stable is the stock one. I dont really mind having the stock kernel its just that it makes the phone more stable but it still stutters when opening apps and in the app drawer.
Its weird because in applications i have no problems, and when im playing games is all good to.. even the more heavy intensive ones. Also my boot and shutdown animation stutter or jitters a little bit.. a thing that dint happened.
Also the benchmarks are good as always +/- 16000 on antutu, no changes... so i don't really understand whats happening...
Steps so far:
-Tested other custom roms including CM10.1 Nightly
-Tested various kernel.
-Flashed stock rom with odin
Every time with megawipe. always...
I was just wondering if the droid eris could run heavy applications like gamelofts nova etc. If so is it a lot slower than the moto droid? And feel free to torture the noob.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a listview with 200 items. I use a custom view for each row. There is a code that takes some time to calculate, and because of this the list hangs out on scrolling and loads in slow (2-3sec). I have subclassed SimpleCursorAdapter, and using Filterable and SectionIndexer. I have in mind to show initially the name of the record, and put in a thread the calculation, and will show up later when it's done. How do I push back some work, and later update the listview to include the calculated data? This should show up on fly without user interaction.

I will create a service to do something when some hot situation occurs.
By hot situation I mean:
the GPS/cell coordinates are in known zone;
known Bluetooth device detected;
known Wi-Fi network detected;
weather info has change;
considerable movement speed change detected: eg. from walking to travel by car.
As you see these tasks are heavy, and will be run frequently. 15 mins, but sometimes even more, when I have to detect the movement speed of the device.
The question I have, will this drain the battery heavily?
If so, what recommendations do you have to minimize battery drain with the above tasks?
Is it common that the default keyboard and input method is a bit slow and lags pretty heavy behind typing? It seems like the Eris can't keep up w my typing and it causes delays and issues when typing messages, etc. Not sure if its the hepatic feedback or the correcting, but its frustrating at times. Apart from that, I like the keyboard and the predictive text works well.

View 1 Replies View RelatedSo from what I can tell Media.insert Image is locked to heavy compression on all images. This includes when passing in the path to a photo in the filesystem. As a test I used a 3000x2000 pixel jpg which had been previously saved at maximum quality and was ~6MB. After passing the path to Media.insert Image, the resultant copy (still 3000x2000) is 623KB. I passed in another copy of the 3000x2000 image, this one compressed down to 393KB. After Media.insert Image, the image filesize is 492KB. I'm wondering if there's a way to specify the compression when images are saved by insert Image. I'm also wondering why this is recompressing jpgs, rather than simply copying them into DCIM. A side-effect of opening and re-compressing these images is that it imposes a rather low VM cap on what insert Image can handle. I'm getting out-of-memory errors when trying to pass the path of a 10 megapixel image.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am looking for a code-heavy way of controlling an android phone with scripts. For example, can you hook your android up to your PC and then control it virtually as if you were doing everything with your finger using scripts?
In my mind I imagine the code would look something like this (this is fake code):
1. var i = 30px;
2. Touch the screen at coordinates x, y;
3. Scroll to cords x, y minus i;
4. Touch the screen at cords x, y;
5. Swipe to cords x + 80, y;
6. Single click cords x, y;
7. if (cords x, y = rgb(0, 0-255,0) { //aka a shade of green
8. var count = count++ }
AT&T evidently has a new campaign to get iPhone users to reduce the amount of video streaming and other data intensive activities they engage in, and may start charging them based on data use.
Their network just can't handle current data levels, and AT&T can't get it updated fast enough to handle the data requirements.
Kind of blows up the ads they've had on TV showing how great their network coverage "really is."
Already been giving my iPhone buddy a hard time showing off my Droid to him, now I'm really going to have some fun at his expense.
I can get a few minutes of 4G signal at my home per day, but when it drops out and 3G takes over, the signal will flatline and boot me offline. My 3G speeds are usually around 56-150Kbps or less, and my 4G speeds are around 2.5 Mbps What would cause this ? According to WiMax location sites online, my nearest 4G tower is .52 mile away. I would think that if I actually get 4G signal, then 3G would be constant. Turning off 4G doesn't help either. Is there some setting that I could have turned off that would cause this ?

View 8 Replies View RelatedMy droid x signal pretty much always between -92dBm and -87dBm with 1-3 3g bars. My former droid eris would get -92dBm with 1 bar and also drain incredibly fast.
On the droid x, if I go into google maps, the circle of the cell tower appears and the place I live at is half way within the edge of the circle and the other half is outside of the circle. I always seem to be connected to this tower. Bad luck I guess that I'm on the outskirts of the circle.
Does anyone know how cell towers are distributed? Do they overlap sometimes?
I run pandora with the screen off for a half hour with the screen off and my battery is down to 70%. I have about 15% screen brightness and battery saving mode on.

I'm writing an android application that collects cell signal strengths. I am having trouble getting the "current" cell signal strength, but I don't have any problem getting the "neighboring" cell signal strengths. To get the current cell signal strength, I created a PhoneStateListener and implemented the onSignalStrengthChanged callback. It works, but not very well. It seems like the signal strength hardly ever changes, and resolution jumps to only a few numbers. I would accept the answer that the resolution of the signal strength hardware is coarse, but when I use the TelephonyManager's getNeighboringCellInfo() method, it works much better. The signal strength readings from neighboring cells change frequently, and they have much better resolution.So, how can I get the current cell signal strength in the same way that I am getting the neighboring cell strengths? It seems odd to me that the functionality of the neighboring cells is better than the current cell. Am I missing something here?I would also like to directly call a method from the telephony manager to get current cell strength, as opposed to a listener, if possible. If anyone knows how, please let me know.

Right now I have the stock browser, Dolphin HD, Skyfire, and xScope all installed and i'm trying to determine which one is really top of the field right now. I haven't gotten to play with Skyfire and xScope for an extended period of time so I was wondering the opinions of the users of this board which browsers they like the most and dislike the most, and most importantly, why. This is all with the 2.2 leak installed so Flash is a factor, and the stock browser does workna little better with Froyo installed. I know for certain that Dolphin isn't running so amazing now, Skyfire streaming flash videos doesn't let you skip to parts in the timeline, and xScope has the coolest icon.
