LG GT540= -101 dBm 6 asu / -99 dBm 7 asu

Omnia 2= -81 dBm 16 asu

Both phones located at the same exact spot.

Omnia 2 -81 dbm 16 asu

¿What want this to say? :huh:

Omnia 2 -81dBm 16 asu

Same Signal strength...

HTC Desire Froyo, between 91 and 89dBm

Omnia II, 81dBm constantly

I am holding one phone in each hand.

the value can get higher than 81, but never lower than 81db.

Who have sleeping problem, please pay attention in this post:

Exactly! I did "2G only" set and my phone got sleep again, 4% last 9 hs. However on reboot the set is lost and I've to do it again. So the radio part seems to be the guilt of behavior this issue.

EDIT: OK! This is confirmed, in last two hours I left my phone in sleep just pressing hangup button, and the battery dont drain nothing, 0%. Simply setting "use only 2G network", I have not use GPRS, nor APN I have set.

OBS: Here in my city carrier dont have umts only edge, what too confirm theory of permanent 3G scan avoiding sleep.

I would like to know how set the system to dont lost 2g only configuration on reboot...

Some pages behind I said something like that.

So switching into "airplane mode" should reduce power drain?

Yes, and I do this when my battery is low. Turn on only when I need to make a call.

Yes it looks like that.

3g active = beeing out on the ocean, 20 Km from the nearest 3G emitter

Err, -97 dBm is lower than -81 dBm. But the finding may be correct, if it is never higher than -81 than the power output would be to high.

sorry, should have written negative value :huh:

sorry, i've searched the cpu libs on this thread but i've not found it.

Someone can link me? thanks and sorry for my english

I made this test - airplane mode for about 9 hours of standby. And power drain is almost the same: 100%->80%.

But I will try again tonight, we'll see.

Quick question,

Whenever the camera works in all it's glory would our device be capable of recording 720p according to the hardware that is in this device?

Just like the nexus one went from 480p recording to 720p just by an software update and it works great on that device, that's why I'm asking :huh:

hope it works soon but the screen resolution is also at qvga level hope android brings out the full Res n colors on the amoled screen

I made the original -81 dBm findings.

While this problem exists, use an app called 'Data on Demand' which switches off 3g while the phone is on standby. After 6 hours off charge, with 'light' use, my battery has dropped by only 20%.

The best its ever been.

Remember, everyone should vary, the farther away your phone is from the cell transmitter, the louder it will have to 'shout' which uses more power. This is why many people seeing a receive signal sterngth of -81dBm is suspicious.

(-97dBm is a WEAKER receive signal than -81dBm) dBm is a logarithmic power RATIO relative to one milliwatt. Every -3dBm difference is a factor of a half

At the phone dialpad type *#0011#. This will bring up a GSM service screen showing the levels from the RF transceiver chip.

The second line will show the receiver channel and the true reception strength. Wave the phone about and this will change.

There are other levels there such as Tx power which may be useful in diagnosing this issue.

You do not need to shout out that the search does not work, it doesnt help. if you want something to be fixed send a PM to the admins (i have already done it)

True, that's the same thing I would love to see too!

I think it will be up and running, they just need some time. In the meanwhile i'm also learning a bit about coding and such which is also great for further devolpment

Actually, the screen is at its full resolution (WVGA 800x480), but the graphic ressources used by the build are MDPI. They would need to make a fresh build from AOSP to get HDPI graphics.

One question about live wallpapers and angry birds. I downloaded 2 files (o2update.tar.gz and o2update1.tar.gz), rename them as o2b2update.tar.gz, run ubuntu, try to untar that files (one by one)....but getting this meesage in terminal: gzip stdin has more than one entry! Wtf is that? I have Android installed on my storage (with ubuntu - no sd card). That was for wallpapers. And about angry birds...which patch i need to install to get working well? Can I download that patch from market or from my PC and install it through ADB? :huh:
