I kept postponing the OTA update until I could root and freeze it. I noticed before I rooted the phone that while the update was postponed, my battery life has been horrendous. Using better battery stats I see that SDM_partial_wakelock has been keeping the phone awake and never letting it go...

My gs3 decided to turn itself off last night. I just figured the battery died, though I had thought that there was plenty of life left in it. I got back, put it on the wall charger and a weird battery icon came up, and the phone still wouldn't boot. After all night on the charger, I can get...

Try this The app name from the store is betterbatterystats, no space. I'm not sure if this is the best app out there for what it does, but it is what teslacoil software had me download to check what the draw was. Link to the app development page: [APP] BetterBatteryStats adds battery history...

After 24 hours on the updated widget locker I think the problem is fixed. Using better battery stats, I can see that the network location service that was keeping my phone awake for hours is now back to normal.

According to widget locker support, the update to fix a similar problem on the photon might also fix the problem on the bionic.

Now that is very interesting

I had a response from widget locker to try some diagnostics. I got the app better battery stats, that monitors wake locks. What happens is with widget locker enabled, the two location services hold the phone awake for hours. If I turn off network location and google location, then the phone...

Re: Verizon is nonchalant about 4G service going down, since it d Verizon is in a great position. Every phone they sell now works on both 3g and 4g. If I were rolling out a new network, thats what I would want. So when 4g needs to go down for maintenance, testing, adding new towers, or...

I use logmein's app to control my computer at work, and thus all our servers including an exchange box. I also have a Modbus app to control instruments that communicate with that protocol over tcp/ip. Since most "machines" are controlled by plc's, and a lot of plc's use modbus, you could...

I think I have had maybe 1 out of 20 downloads on the stock browser complete successfully. Dolphin works most of the time. Some sites, like digitalblasphemy fail to download files with any browser.

There is another option, especially if you are a small business. You might want to look into an hosted exchange server. With out even talking about mobile use yet, hosted exchange is superior over using outlook and godaddy's email. Get all of the functionality of an exchange server for 5...

I love being my own IT guy, it makes phone integration much easier. Exchange active sync is a breeze to set up compared to BES for blackberry. I think any new exchange set ups will be all android since blackberry's software is expensive to run,and license. But existing set ups will stay...

Not that I can see. The extra charge was for BB and their rip off..... er I mean corporate data plan. When I transferred to the bionic, it kept that same plan, so I think they got 15 dollars extra a month out of me for unlimited data. Any change and I would have had to go to tiered data. If...

I was always curious, what does one do with a stolen phone that won't activate? By now, everyone knows that the carriers black list stolen phones, so why steal them? There must be a secondary market, or something else that makes them valuable still.
