[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] il Duce:
Well, first the milestone and droid both have different processors than the hero, so maybe that's why he got SPB to work (I never actually saw anything about that launcher specifically). Second, his tweak is easy, script unneeded. You can change your vm heap to 48 by editing the build.prop, which is fine because the early GB builds were set that way. You then could add the line "ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=0" to the bottom of the build.prop, add a BLANK line under that, then disable the CM lock home in memory. You could also create or add the same lines to local.prop in /data.

EDIT: I just did all that, same result. Set SPB to default launcher, screen goes black for about a minute, then it reloads adw ex with a wallpaper made of clouds, no SPB... Still the paid market version may work with these edits, someone must try (not me) and report back. I will say a prayer to the phone gods for you.

Dude you have to do the Energy ROM from the Energy ROM thread just to see if it can hold up to it's name. HA HA HA :p But seriously I am curious.
[HD2 General] motoi_bogdan:
ok :D so, first rom is in.

I will also do a test on a stock rom to have a reference point.
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
That is a good idea to do a stock ROM too. This will give people some real good feed back on battery consumption of stock ROMs and custom ROMs. It will also put the devs work to the test so do speak. The stock ROM can give you something of a base line to start with and to compare to. I look forward to following this thread.
[HD2 General] motoi_bogdan:
here are the first results. I've edited the first post to include these..
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
Hey that is some awesome work man, please continue your work on this as it is very useful information. Also did you have to bridge the (+) positive battery pin and the center battery pin in the HD2 to turn on the HD2 to turn on with thew battery out, or did you just bridge the the (?) battery terminal and the center battery terminal on the battery to get the HD2 to turn on with out the battery in the phone. Also what is your opinion on the Velleman DVM1400 tester. I am a electrician and have been one for 15 years so I am very familiar with the Fluke 127.
[HD2 General] aznprodgy:
wow awesome work! thanks for doing all the testing. could you possibly do a test for a gingerbread ROM?
[HD2 General] reijkelhof:
While reading books on the phone for hours I used a dark background and white letters. I thought more black meant less energy used.

Are you saying I should use a white background and black letters instead to save battery?
[HD2 General] reijkelhof:
Understood

thank you again, facdemol, that will help me get another hour reading time this summer.

Thanks for your work, these are very useful informations.

If i can ask you something: please check that Currentwidget or Battery monitor widget shows correct values compare to the real values on the multimeter

[HD2 General] xlr8me:
Fantastic effort mate..

Can i request you test 1.66rom wwe from htc please with its radio 2.06.57 thnx :)
[HD2 General] motoi_bogdan:
ok, no problem with that, but where to get this rom? Any link (i never flashed any stock roms except the tmobile one on the first page). Also your rom must be compatible with 1024 leo (tmous).
[HD2 General] ei05035:
Actually, black pixels do save energy but only IF the display is AMOLED or similar. In these cases, AMOLED displays display truly black pixels, as the illumination is per pixel. This means that black pixels on screen aren't back-lighted , and thus, they save power (which is why Honeycomb uses a dark colour scheme ^^).

Technically, it matters not what colors your display on the HD2 shows. HOWEVER, if you find a colour scheme that allows you to use a dimmer backlight option, then it INDIRECTLY saves you power ^^.

Hope this helps you mate. Kudos
[HD2 General] motoi_bogdan:
As i've explained on the first page of this topic, as hd2 screen is a lcd type, black colors DO require more energy. A full black screen consumes about 10-15% more energy (taking into account the full display consumption LCM+Backlight) then a white one. Should the display had been AMOLED things would have been exactly opposite.

This is related to the LCM module, not the backlight itself. Keeping the crystals aligned in a specific light blocking mode or changing their state does require energy.

I oversimplified the light blocking or permissive crystal example on my first post about this. Actually these crystals will block or allow only a specific light wavelength - a primary color. So.. a green subpixel has a crystal that in it's natural state will allow only green wavelength to pass, reflecting blue or red, and when it's charged by an electric signal it will block all wavelengths. Also, these aren't just some sort of on/off switches, each subpixel is able to partially switch it's corresponding crystal. Thus you get different combination of colors, by mixing various proportion of each elementary color (let's say 50% red, 80% green and 20% blue). A pixel is perceived by the human eye as the average of these elementary colors.

When you have a "dead subpixel" (small green dot for example) that's a subpixel who's corresponding crystal can't switch on (for whatever reason) or it's commanding mosfet transistor is burned out. So, that subpixel is always displaying green.

When you display black, all 3 subpixels and corresponding crystals are turned fully on in order to block all light wavelength.
[HD2 General] ei05035:
I don't mean to be contradicting, but the whole "black consumes more power" thing is it really due to the HD2 having an LCD? Because when I search for LCD tests I find stuff like this:

Samsung LCD

standby: 10 watts, 0.17 amps

black screen: 200 watts, 2.55 amps

white screen: 199, 2.58 amps

red screen: 199 watts, 2.57 amps

blue screen: 198 watts, 2.57 amps

green screen: 198 watts, 2.96 amps

This is for an LCD tv it seems, but still...

So, does it really make that much of a difference mate?

Edit: Been reading a bit, and it does make sense that it consumes a bit more, but still, 10 to 15%?! Sounds wild. But in the end, I think i'll invert my dark color scheme for my HD2 ^^. Thanks mate!

Cheers!
[HD2 General] motoi_bogdan:
:) no no, modern tv sets use some nifty tricks to solve the power consumption issues and get that green eco friendly sticker.

As you see, on any modern tv the values are rather constant between displaying white or displaying black.

When displaying white, we're getting full backlight and no crystal opposition in reflecting that light from coming out. So we get max consumption for the backlight and almost 0 for the lcm module (tft matrix). 199-200W in your example.

When displaying black.. normally the backlight would still be fully on and the lcm module fully powered. We should se some 230W but.. as you found out.. we still have 200W again. Same amount of power being used. This is because of one trick manufacturers found out some time ago. When the matrix is fully polarized (tft module blocking the light and displaying black) a small sensor will detect this state and also lower the backlight level. By doing this, we have the impression that the tv is displaying a truer black, at least a more deeper black. Because of this, some smart marketing folks thought of increasing the stated contrast level of that screen. Big numbers always do good in marketing. So, in the end you see the same power consumption ratio because when displaying black, although the lcm consumes more power, the backlight is dimmed thus reducing it's power consumtion ratio. TV's do this (even ccfl backlight ones, all led's do this) pc monitors do this and even some laptop screens do this to save power and increase the apparent contrast.

However phones don't do this because of the small size of their screens. If it is acceptable for a tv displaying a movie to lower the backlight when in a dark scene or something 70-80% black'ish, it would be impractical for a phone that displays a dark theme on 80% of the screen to have the backlight lowered. If this happened, the 20% left (let's say notification bar, battery indicator etc) will also be darker, so it would affect readability. Instead, phones use a photo-transistor as ambient light sensor in order to adjust the whole screen brightness to surrounding light. If you use that, specifically in a pretty customizable environment like android where you can select the min/max values for the backlight to vary, you'll be fine.

I didn't test the difference between black or white on hd2, but from experience with other devices (older pda's) i estimated to be around 10-15%. This is given for the worst case scenario : no ambient light adjustment, pure black vs pure white at maximum backlight. In real life, however, the differences will be smaller.
[Android Apps and Games] aitorTheRed:
Hello to everyone.

this is my first application (and very simple indeed) and I wanted to share it with you :) I know there are plenty of similar (and far better) applications on xda and the market, but everything has a beginning, and this is mine :)

Application to use the screen as a flashlight, when you don't have a camera flash in dark situations. Originally designed for Geeksphone ZERO.

You can customize and change the background color, and you can easily switch between three different intensities: Low, medium and high.

A new functionality has been added. Two modes, button mode and switching.

Please, feel free to contact me if you have any problems or if you want more options to be added in the future.

Contact translate-torch@senselesssolutions.com to help translate Torch to your language.

-- Future Features

* If the phone has camera flash, use it, instead of the screen.

The permissions requested are for changing the intensity and for prevent the screen to fade and turn off.

v1.2.1 (15/12/2011)

You have attached the apk, or can download from the market:

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FooisM:
Is there any way to prevent turning off the screen while charging / on cradle?

I need it to see clock 24/7 while my device is charging.

Now if I connect device to the PC it goes standby (while on lock screen, when the time is displayed), even if "screen timeout" is set to never.

Thank you!

I too am looking for this solution. Back in WM 5 and 6 we were able to set independent brightness and sleep times while on battery or while plugged in. I am on day 3 with this WP7 phone and am getting frustrated by the "simplification" of so many aspects that I was able to modify in the past.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkp1977:
If it's just the clock you need to see, then you might wanna try Nightclock, which is available for free in the marketplace. It shows a nice clock and has an option for preventing the screen from turning off.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] argentocruz:
While your lock screen does not require a password (pass number really) an extra menu item is added to the settings/lock&wallpaper/screen timeout drop menu... "never"

But if you require a password to unlock the screen, this "never" option disappears...
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ebarron:
Unfortunately for me it is not just the clock.

While docked on my desk I like to keep it open on my SMS conversations to see if anything new has arrived.

While docked in my car on top of the dash, I like to keep it on maps to see if any traffic congestion might be ahead and listening to podcasts. Its rather distracting to keep watching for the screen to go dark and tap it every 5 minutes.
