Re: Android status as a daily phone
Another issues related to the battery is that, as far as I remember, for #1024 fixed phones deep sleep does not work since the option is disabled and can not be enabled through config files or others. That might be another reason for shorter battery time compared to SHR or qtmoko. But correct me if I am wrong.

Re: Android status as a daily phone
1 doesn't happen to me (yet) 2 didn't try 3 i agree. the problem there is that you can't kill the app when you finish using it, therefore when many programs are running, there's not enough memory. I've red that ES File Explorer is able to kill the applications, but i didn't try yet.

Re: Android status as a daily phone
By using Android as my daily phone on my FreeRunner I have noticed that there are just three problems that still need to be fixed: 1. Microphone volume: sometimes it is too low and people can't listen my voice. 2. Speakers: when I activate the speakers during a call the other person listen his voice back. 3. Sometimes it get frozen, especially when a lot of applications are running (not enought resources?) Emanuele On Sun, Apr 25, 2010 at 10:21 AM, urodelo wrote: > The volume is fine.

Re: Android status as a daily phone
The volume is fine. Although I usually don't get much calls, I think the voice it's quite clear too. About the battery, well I have the impression that mine doesn't last for a long time, maybe due to my behaviour, cause when at home I often stop the suspend and keep the phone under charge. It has happened that the phone got frozen after suspending a couple of times, but recently I didn't experiment it again. urodelo On Sun, 25 Apr 2010 03:10:38 +0200, Denis Galvão - Gmail wrote: > Thanks urodelo. > > What about the listen volume? > > And about hibernation?

Re: Android status as a daily phone
Thanks urodelo. What about the listen volume? And about hibernation? Is the energy saver working as it should? I mean the phone can sleep and wake without problems? Denis.

Re: Android status as a daily phone
I've it on my fr since some months. The version I use is 1.5. I can use it as daily phone. it's stable. I've just installed few applications, and except some occasional freeze, I'm not experimenting any special problem. However, I find there aren't many interesting applications available (for my taste), not like in shr. Moreover, its difficult to do every little change in the system. But if you just want to use it as mobile phone, i think it's ok. I didn't test gps and bluetooth yet, I assume they work. Wifi works very well, it automatically reconnects if i go out of range for some time. I've it on nand; booting it can sometimes be a challenge, if your finger isn't quick enough, especially if you have just opened your eyes after a deep sleep.
