Quit masturbating yourself. It might help you.
Although maybe it shouldn't be used more than a couple of times a week at most, 5 hour energy seems to work really well for me.
But be careful, contrary to the commercials, it can make you quite jittery. Once, I took an entire bottle (only 2 fluid ounces, which actually contains over 8000% of your daily B vitamin requirements) before a major exam, and was shaking the entire time.
My teacher thought I was having a nervous breakdown or problems with stress, and now seems to think I should get a stress buster and maybe a therapist too... but other than that it works great.
But like I said, be careful with it, I actually have a really stupid friend who had a heart attack from drinking too many energy drinks at the same time. So USE IT RESPONSIBLY!

Go and by yourself some Cranberry Juice.
That stuff makes you sleep... like KRZY!
If you take the caffine road, be careful of an overdose, my sister took some caffine pills that you can buy ower the counter here in sweden.

Making sport helps a lot. Don't know if you make some, if not just pick one up, that's healthy .
I noticed that when I don't make sport for some reasons, I'm getting less active and more quickly tired hehe.
1) Make sure there is nothing wrong with you - get your bloodwork checked out.
2) Make sure you sleep enough and regularly. Try going to bed and getting up at exactly the same time each day for a month, and make sure there are about 8 hours between those events (for some people the sweet spot is 7, for others 9). Do not deviate from these times. For some people this is completely unnecessary, others really need to do this. Especially if you have been sleeping irregularly for some time.
3) Make sure you eat right, i.e. getting the right vitamins you need. Having too little of some vitamins makes you tired. Having too much of other vitamins may kill you though Again, get yourself checked out - it is fairly common that your body may not 'handle' certain vitamins right, which again can make you dead tired. There are various ways to handle that, your doctor will know the best way for you if that is your problem. BUT, do NOT take general vitamin supplements. Most of the time taking those leads to having too many vitamins, which is just as bad as too little. You will get enough of most vitamins from whatever you eat, even if you don't eat healthy.
4) Stop drinking anything containing caffeine - period. Not drinking caffeine at all for weeks straight has pretty much the same effect as drinking caffeine daily The more caffeine you drink, the longer it takes for this to go normal again. Energy drinks, coffee, etc are all bad ideas if you want to be awake. Quit them altogether. (Remember caffeine is a drug!)
5) Stop drinking milk and similar dairy products. Milk is the primary dairy product that can cause what I'm about to explain, but it depends on yourself. Most people for example don't have this issue with yoghurt or cheese. About 1 in 10 people does not burn dairy products correctly - but a much smaller number actually knows this. The result is almost always getting tired. I personally know several people who suffer from this and not drinking milk, eating yoghurt etc solved most of their tiredness issues.
6) Don't drink any alcohol for a few weeks. Makes you tired if you drink more than your body can properly take care of (which isn't all that much).
7) Stop smoking. Also makes you tired.
8) Exercise! Helps a lot. And not just your body - do not forget your brain. Keep your mind occupied - throw away the TV (there's nothing worth watching on it anyway!)
9) Destress yourself. If you are having stress, do what it takes to get rid of it. Stress is a killer and wears you out if you have it for long periods of time.
Try doing all of the above for a month... I guarantee you will feel better. Once everything is settled again your body should be able to take some 'slacking' again for a while
Get a life, which obviously none of us have
thanks for those who gave the constructive advise
i guess its the lack of sports and sleep... i manage around 6-7 hours.. i think i am a 9hours person... work work.. with the great crisis now... WORK IS MORE IMPT sigh

I forgot to bring eye problems up. Do you wear contact lenses or did you notice that your view was somehow getting worse?
Both cases are pretty harsh for your brain, cause contact lenses are known to be tougher to wear than standard glasses (yes, that's also a question of habits and so on ), and if you have view problems (even small), then you brain tries hard to adapt but can't succeed it.
All of this make tired as hell, own experience speaking .

I used to spend a lot of time around my computer screen for work and leisure. I committed myself to less time on the computer and more time with paper work, friends, and family. Try not to use the computer as much I am full of energy now, well somewhat.

I was at work one day and my boss said I looked exhausted. I told him I wasn't sleeping that well. He suggested I spend less time around the computer at work then he unplugged my monitor. I then decided to take his advice within a week of using the computer 2-3hrs less a day, I was sleeping better and when I did not get the best sleep I had more energy.
So if time does not allow you to exercise, try stepping away from the computer when you are at home for a few hours less a day or even a week. See if that helps.
Yeah the problem nowaday for lots of people is that people use computer at work AND at home. That represents a large (huge) amount of the day (let's say one use the computer 6/8 hours at work + 3/5 hours at home, if not way more).
That way, yes, you get tired (why, I don't know, I'm no doc , but it certainly has to do with the light from the display, concentration and so on). At the same, you destroy your eyes, very modern sadely.
One thing I have heard and learned to do: never go to bed directly after switching off the tv or the cmputer, your head is then still too much working on what you saw or did before you get yourself in bed. Reading is friendlier.

Couple noobish questions.

I'm a recent emigre from the land of iphone and i'm loving all my newfound freedom. After surfing around the market, I have a couple quick questions I thought the xda crowd might have good answers to.
1.I saw an antivirus app. Is this just developer fear-mongering marketing or are there any android viruses floating around out there?
2.Along the same lines, I saw an application that would give a notification when the phone was fully charged to prevent overcharging. Is this an issue with Nexus One phones? I usually charge my phone overnight. Is that a bad idea?

+1 i never got a virus -_- nor did my phone overcharge
Ya...it kinda seemed like it.
I know how I can make some money... I'll invent an imaginary problem and create a fix for it... Step 3: Profit!
I have 'lookout' on my phone, the antivirus. I have no idea how effective it would be in the event of a real virus. But it is free, and doesn't put up ads. So i may as well use it. it has some other features.
My N1 was always on the charger whenever I got home. Haven't had a problem.
As for the anti-virus thing, I can see how it may become a problem on Android eventually, but I think the best prevention is to download/install reputable apps from the market.

Funny Story (: Well to me..

Okay well I was checking my phone during school and stuff and my friend, sitting next to me, looks over and was like "I have a better phone than you by 100 times" and I said "BS". He whipped out his phone...and what was it? A LG optimus from sprint (what a joke!). He was like "I can download games anytime! I can watch videos! I can make Real Madrid my background! I can download like a billion apps! I have 4g! My phone is better than yours!" Then I had to show him what kind of piece of crap phone he had. I told him "I can do all that to and my 3g is faster than yours." Then I proceeded to tell him "My phones bigger, faster, and is better in general. I can download more apps than you and handle all of the good games on my phone with no lag at all!" then I showed him my app drawer and he was like "HAH what a loser I can swipe left to right" I called him retarded and said "Dude, that's my app drawer you have the same thing..." He still was not convinced so I told him "Download quadrant from the market" We did that and guess who won? I DID! He stills not convinced....lol
Moral of the story. Don't talk to n00bs about phones!
I hear you buddy I get into arguments all the time with iPhone users about how much better and faster there phone is. Its actually pretty funny cause people think there stock rom phones or iPhones are better than our juiced up Vibrants. Not a chance!! These devs here make our phones amazing!! Like you said do a speed test or a quadrant test and there's your proof.

Ugh especially when you go to a phone place to help your friend buy a phone and the customer service doesn't have a clue about the phones and only goes on hearsay and tries to convince your friend to buy a piece of crap.
They seriously need to train their employees... especially those damn Cricket stores. Those guys think they know everything. One time they tried to argue with me and I mentioned overclocking and the guy, obviously, didn't know what the hell that meant and he said (trying to say the blackberry storm was a good phone) that "The software alone is overclocked" and I gave him a blank look of stupidity and he tried to go into specifics and I just stopped the conversation... even though he knew nothing, he was never going to give up.
My brother and I laughed when we left because my brother is sort of phone savvy because of me.
Damn you Cricket lol.
Oh man, you just reminded me of this story.
I went into the store to have my SIM replaced (I had a bad SIM), and I overheard a sales rep talking to someone about the GS4G.
This is what he said.
"Yeah, this phone is great. It runs Samsung's NEW Snapdragon CPU at 1.8GHz, with 512MB of RAM (thank ****ing god he got that right). It also runs Gingerbread, which is Samsung's newest version of Android."
And I'm not ****ing joking, this guy literally said all of this. I honestly wish I had recorded that, and my reaction.
I literally burst out laughing. I had to come up with "sorry, I though of something funny that happened at school today" to not make me call the employee stupid.
yeah my roommate has an iphone 4 only because its an iphone 4. Gets annoying, until he sees flash 10.2, my 32 gigs of internal storage and so on and so on.
They just dont give up omg I know it is SO ANNOYING

Hero compared to the 3vo

Wanted to know is anyone in hero withdrawal??? And hows everyone who has upgraded enjoying the 3vo??? Cons and pros compared to hero. I chose to start this thread because if any users are due for an upgrade can get a general idea of what to expect. Also just to have some general discussion on both phones. I loved my hero it was my first android phoe before it I never knew xda existed. It all started in a sprint store when I went in to complain about how slow it was becoming and I was regretting getting the phone and since I was still under 30 days I almost swapped it for a Samsung. Then a rep pulled me to the side because I had handed him my business card the prior visit and told me have I ever heard of apps2sd. I replied no and he told me to google it. Well I went home and did just that and that's when I discovered xda and its been a blast every since. I started at 1.5 when I rooted and I've never looked back. My hero will always have a spot on my history shelf. I never knew it was possible that a little phone could do so much. And how its a whole different world on xda I mean I blew my mind on how many members were on here and that they do it all for the love. Never have I ever regretted rooting my hero and I'm glad that that sprint rep told me about apps2sd. I even went to the exact store to thank him but he was no longer there. Whish I could have showed that man the end results I think he would've been floored lol. But now getting the 3vo Im quite fond of the screen size especially because I wear glasses and I can take them off now and still read the print fine. That was one of my biggest dislikes of the hero such small print. I'm very thankful for the developer of spareparts and the rom developers for including it in most of the roms I've used. Also I like the feel of 3vo with the rubberized back the hero has hit the floor on my occasions because it lacked that feature. I like the charger port being on the side of the phone big plus IMO because it makes it easier to surff and charge at the same time. With the hero I just chose to disable the rotation because I got frustrated with having the cord in between my fingers when I wanted to surf in landscape. Also I love the fact of the 3vo's buttons on the bottom are flush and has no clicking sound. I was always afraid of to much wear and tear on the hero's button would one day catch up to me. What I don't like is the big stupid as camera button on the side I seem to activate the camera a lot and I haven't figured out a way to disable it yet. Probably can't. I liked the heros option that if you wanted the camera you had to select the camera. I love the speed of the 3vo of course. My hero was fast as hell but can't compare to it. Well that's enough for me. Any one else???
Edit: Also if ya dont mind post what apps, launcher, and themes your still using from your hero that your using on the 3vo and how they perform and your overall setup.
#Root/Hack-Mod_Always*
I'm using most of my apps from the hero on the 3vo. However, I can't use the ex explorer. Randomly locks up. Sucks. The htc_ime works on.it too, but hugs the left screen.
Over all, the transition from the hero is frustrating a little since I can't root or anything. So there are plenty of apps that I cannot use.
Make the switch if you can. I'll post the app list during lunch chow.
I love the phone and the performance, the screen size is awsome, but the phone doesn't feel bulky like my wifes OG Evo. Contrary to Laie, I don't like the charge port on the left side of the phone. Maybe I'll get used to it, but for the last 16 months or so the Hero has sat on the charger on the right armrest of my recliner, now doing that leaves a cord hanging across my body and it just doesn't feel normal sitting on the left arm rest. Not a big fan of the camera button either. It's nice to use as a shutter button, but awkward during normal phone usage. I haven't changed much about the HTC setup yet, but I've been busy setting up the Hero for my son. What I'm not fond of, being back on a sense rom are....the 7 homescreens (I generally only use 1), the goofy 3 button sense dockbar, and the fact that the apps I've spent so much time changing out the icons for use on the Hero and resigning are installing ok, but showing up with the original unchanged icons (I haven't yet investigated why, but I'm guessing it has something to do with the difference between the MDPI and HDPI displays). So the bottom line is that I'm definately pleased with the upgrade and the power of the phone, but I find myself tiptoeing out of my son's bedroom with the Hero in hand to flash something or try something new.
I have an otter box case, so I don't notice the camera button. I don't like the usb port on the side, but they have the right angle plugs you can get so it runs along the side of the phone. My hero feels so small compared to this phone. Oh, and the speed of it is crazy. I keep trying to use the trackball to move my cursor, but am slowly remembering its there. I'm still hanging around this forum to help out if I can.

I was overjoyed when I heard a rumor that the Kingdom was the code name for Hero 2. Turns out its not. I miss the smaller screen of the Hero. The 3VO is a big bad boy tho. Using Sense, Go SMS, Miren browser, Robo Defense, AndroXplorer, dropbox, sugar sync, zumo drive, audio galaxy, glow hockey, mobo player, news rob, spare parts, Verizon Fios DVR manager, and Zedge. With the extra horsepower of the 3VO I started using Pocket Casts (podcasts), My Beach lwp, music beta, ghostTown (if you're a music fan, check it out), amazon app store and album art grabber.
I bought my 3vo today, upgraded from my overclocked hero running the latest cm7 nightly. I miss the bulk in hand of the hero. The 3vo is big but doesn't fall to hand quite the same. The camera button is awkward as well as the usb placement for me.
The performance can't even be compared. The 3vo is blazing fast. Network is fast. Everything just feels instant. It's really hard to describe the difference coming from the hero. I kind of miss the physical keys and the menu unlock and the trackball. I definitely have the itch to root and flash this thing already.
In all honesty, I bought the phone out of excitement for something new. I could care less about the 3d features but would get so frustrated at watching my gf's droid x do things my phone just couldn't do. That was enough to justify the purchase. Will I keep it? I'm still not sure. I'm kind of hoping we get a couple of new offerings during the 30 day trial (SgsII, kingdom, photon) but overall I'm pleased at the performance.
I think I'm going to purchase a case (something I never did with the Hero) just to add to feel in hand. I'm definitely going to miss the hero, and will keep it around, but it was just beyond dated.

The flashing urge is not quite as bad for me.....I do still have a pair of Nooks, an OG Evo, the Optimus, and the Hero in my care, but yeah.....the Hero's still my favorite even with the tiny little screen and the silver paint worn off of all the buttons and the menu button that doesn't actually press down anymore.

Turned mine off on Friday, Haven't turned it back on. I got burnt out on having to always set everything back up after flashing a new ROM, that I finally stuck with each ROM for months at a time. All I really want is custom kernels and free hotspot and usb tethering.
It's funny you are posting this in the Hero forums. What are you trying to do? Make them all jealous!
Changed my mind.....I'm taking mine back. Can't take the stupidity in those forums, it's even worse then the Nook forums. Some guy just posted a month old link to a post that says HTC will unlock the bootloader.....Geez we didn't know
I am not getting the 3vo until august but from what I saw at the sprint store when I tried it was: THEY MADE SENSE MORE BLOATED!!! D:
I personally think that I won't be getting it until I can root/flash it before I even get home from the sprint store. >.<
I have gotten so used to not using Sense that I genuinely hate it with a passion now, so much freaking bloatware.

Every HTC phone is going to have a lot of bloat. But even with all the bloat the phone is running smooth as can be. It doesn't slow it down at all. You could put ADW or LP on it and it will run 1000 times better than the Hero.

Yes google Amazon app store. Its great! They offer one free paid app a day. That is how I found pocket cast.
Ghosttown, very awesome. It takes videos from youtube and streams the audio to your phone, pretty good quality too. If you search by artist it will organize all the songs by albums, given if the video exists on youtube. Tried with the Hero and it was very choppy. Works great on 3G with the 3VO.
So happy with the phone. I have a wireless N router at home where my 4G signal is kinda weak and the phone is N compatible. 4G is strong at my work.

I understand that in it's current state it is a beta with only abut 8 hours of work in it. However, it's not very good. 2 of the 3 questions I asked it came back with "Fine, fine, I quit." and "I'm emailing you my resignation." after waiting for about 5 minutes each. The one question it responded to was, "How's the weather looking today?" to which it gave me the local weather for Baltimore... I live in Florida. GPS was enabled but it didn't even try to use it. It also took about 5 minutes for it to respond to that question as well.
Pretty fail at the moment.

The one question it responded to was, "How's the weather looking today?" to which it gave me the local weather for Baltimore... I live in Florida. GPS was enabled but it didn't even try to use it. It also took about 5 minutes for it to respond to that question as well.
Pretty fail at the moment.

its really good, for only 8 hours of work. Although it is kind of slow, but the answers seemed to work for me

Lol im in baltimore and i asked the weather and waited 5 minutes and got nothing. You must have got my answer.

I'm sure it would provide the weather even if you said "I don't want to know the weather today."
This app is so ****ing worthless its not even funny. I gave it a thourough testing and it was 0/20. Not one right answer, not even close. It knows what you said exactly though which is weird.

I think this whole concept is a stupid gimmicky worthless waste of time altogether, just designed to be a "Look what I can do!" advertisement.
I mean when you're on a bus or train, sitting in a restaurant, waiting at the barber/salon for a haircut, standing in line at the DMV or the Post Office or whatever, are you really going to start conversing with your phone like a weirdo and have everyone staring at you like you sprouted a second head?
It's not another person, it's not your best buddy (and if it is you have even more serious social problems than I do). It's a PHONE. Use your fingers to push the many buttons and poke the touch-screen. Jesus.
But, even if it's more-or-less useless, I guess I can see why it's important for Android to have the same big shingy bells and whistle that the iPhone does, for the sake of publicity and bragging rights.
im pretty sure the download i had said 'beta'. obviously its a ways behind Siri, but i think it has excellent potential. the voice recognition does well, but results are ridiculous. hell if it googled your voice command it would be able to tell you more. i would love an app that could tell me whatever i wanted to know while i was driving. i use the voice commands all the time. i text ALOT by voice. sometimes its more convenient when im doing somethin. if i could hit iris and tell it to move my 430 meeting to tomorrow, that would be the bees knees. i think u could sell it and make a pretty penny too. that being said, i think it would be hard for an android app to be that integrated into so many different devices. ONLY the 4S is capable of Siri (atm). Maybe if Googorola developed it, either or. Its absolutely possible and we do have some genuis people developing for android.
I am a bit suprised that this new app is being slated as the Siri Killer when Android has a few apps that both predate Siri and are more advanced.
Speaktoit is the one that I like myself but there are a few on the market.

I think siri is just a jimmick. A voice recognition app isn't a reason to buy a phone. If that's your main selling point, you've got nothing. Just my 2 cents

This is true, the problem is that iSheep are raving about it like, "lol i asked siri if she was gay my phone is better then some crap android"
I can honestly say, I thought it was cool at first as my girl has a 4S. But it's pretty useless honestly and google voice search does the same thing, better. You just can't ask Android a question, you have to say your search 9 times out of 10 which is fine...
