I have terrible battery life as well.

First install of 1.0.0 i had bb.58 with the patch. i would drop 13% an hour

i went to bb. 54 and dropped ~15% an hour

next i went to bb .49 and update 1.0.1 and lost ~ 18% in the hour

i have 3g on with good signal and no wifi or BT or gps. i charge phone to 100% and then turn off screen and let set for an hour.

with 2.1 i only lost 4% and i took a 5min call in that hour. that was on bb .54 with stock SE generic

any insight on this would be fantastic as i love the rom but i can't even leave it on my desk at work without it getting low battery at the end of the day.

not sure if anyone else is seeing this happen but my dialer will be the app that takes the most battery. the 18% drop in an hour had the dialer use 72% of that. so my dialer used ~14% of my battery in an hour... wtf??
[XPERIA X10 General] prasad.adam:
It settles down later for me.

I am on Cobrato BB patch for .58 and using Trip's MIUI 1.0.0.

Battery was charged to 87%.

In first hour it came down to 73% (drop of 14%)

No settings change and next hour it comes down to 70% (drop of just 3%)

Do not know why but drop seems faster in 90s and high 80s and it stabiliizes later. Yesterday after 10 hours of normal usage my battery was at 58% (from 92%) so 34% drop in 10 hours. Roughly 3.5% per hour.
[XPERIA X10 General] fsss:
Maybe you should try "Force close foreground app" option from settings. Then you need to hold back button and browser will be exited.

I think you shouldn't compare battery consumption in particular hours. IMO it means nothing when in first hour it will be like 5% and next 20%. I think it is good idea to measure whole cycle (from 100% to 10%) and then compare these cycles.
[XPERIA X10 General] iridaki:
+1 on that.

The first 10-20% are gone really quickly, but it usually takes 20-24 hours from 100% to 1%, with moderate to heavy use for me!

Question: I have backed up all my data via xrecovery on stock ROM and different baseband. I´m on 1.0.3 and bb 52 (54 before). My question is will this data restore work on this rom? (i want messages, app datas and so on..)

(This guide is for 1.0.3 to 1.0.4)

just do the following :

1) Xrecovery - backup & restore - backup

2) factory reset and wipe everything

3) flash the new ROM

4) boot in the new rom and skip all the wizards

5) reboot

6) xrecovery - backup & restore - Advance restore - restore data
[XPERIA X10 General] bnmohler:
It was like that for days as far as the battery drain goes. And after a week of that i had goto 2.1 and stay for a bit to regroup. I am now back on 2.2 (Achotjan_2.2.1_v010) and i am looking at only ~2-3% an hour.. even just after getting it installed. Leading up to this i did many clean flashes of stock SE 2.1 roms and clearing out all stats and caches so maybe something in all that fixed it. back on .54 BB

It is still strange as when i went to 2.2 back in February the battery was not really an issues and then it became one ... but not now so hard to say ... could have been a rogue app that has since been corrected in an update.

I am happy to be back with 2.2 and getting excited about the dev around current 2.3 roms!

*Repost because I was an idiot and originally posted this in the dev section.*

I'm having a bit of trouble with CWM recovery and my rooted Nook Color. Quick background, I'm running CM7 RC4 on the eMMC with CWM v3.0.1.0 & OC'ed Kernel.

When I boot into CWM, I'm getting a few errors:

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/command
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log

When I attempt to do a backup, I'll get the following output & error:

SD Card space free: 13593MB
Backing up boot...
Backing up system...
Backing up data...
Can't mount /data!

Has anyone else run into this before? I'd like to be able to make backups prior to flashing an updated OC kernel.

Thanks in advance.
[Nook Color General] danger-rat:
How did you install CWM?
[Nook Color General] danger-rat:
You can't install from ROM Manager, because it doesn't install the recovery kernel correctly. If thats how you installed, that may be the problem, which you can correct by installing from the flashable zip in this thread...

Heres what I did to get MMS working correctly with Lexlite Gingeraid 3.6 and Apex GB Beta on Cricket (GINGERBREAD ROM)

$45 Plan:

​

MAKE A BACKUP BEFORE DOING ANY OF THIS:

Flash Apex GB

Download Autostart root from market

Download APN Backup & Restore from market

Backup current APN's and then Delete. Load the APN's attached and make sure to replace the X's with your 10-digit number.

Make sure you have adb installed and be sure to put autostart.sh, u2nl in your C:\android-sdk-windows\tools (may be a different directory for you) ( I had to upload them with .zip extension so you will need to rename it without .zip after downloading)

cd C:\android-sdk-windows\tools <enter>

adb shell <enter>

mkdir /data/opt/ <enter>

exit <enter>

adb remount <enter>

adb push c:\android\tools\u2nl /system/bin/u2nl <enter>

adb push c:\android\tools\autostart.sh /data/opt/autostart.sh <enter>

adb shell <enter>

chmod 0755 /system/bin/u2nl <enter>

chmod 0755 /data/opt/autostart.sh <enter>

exit <enter>

adb reboot <enter>

Edit the build.prop. I use android commander to pull the build.prop located in /system. Once you pull it change verizons mcc number from 310004 to cricket 310016. Also you can rename the ro.cdma.home.operator.alpha to Cricket..Theres 2 places where you have to change it. The easiest way is to use notepad++ and then search for (310004) and then edit the file. Once you have changed verizons mcc number you can delete it from /system and then drop the newly edited one in its place. Once this is done reboot you phone.

Make sure you give Autostart root superuser access.

You should have working MMS on Cricket's network.

Incredible on cricKet using XDA app
[Droid X General] bigshotrob22:
If your on the $55 plan you dont need the other stuff but I think replacing the telephony.db file should fix your MMS issues. Ill attach it here.

Delete the telephony.db file located in data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases

Drop the attached telephony.db in data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases (Be sure to rename the telephony.db file you downloaded back to telephony.db before dropping it back into data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases)

Once this is done Reboot your phone and you should have working MMS.

Yeah the touch screen freeking out while charging is a known issue. It happens on mine. Though, there are reports that it may be the charger it self. I remember a post a week or so back where someone said that they warranty returned their charger and then the screen issues were fixed. I wonder if b&n changed it's hardware. If it's a make-or-break issue for you, you may want to try that.

The same thing happened to me after Auton00tering it. I was too lazy to re-root so I just lived with it. After a week or so it started charging again on it's own.

Hey guys,

I have been trying various encoding presets with handbrake and still no success .

I tried players, vital player, xy player, rock player, qq player and no joy on any of them when set to hardware decode mode.

What happens is the player accepts harvested decode and starts to play the video. You can tell the difference immediately. its fast in sync and no framerate issues.

But after about 30 seconds the player just stops playing the movie and returns to the file browsing menu.

I can't tell if its the encoding or my hardware.

anyone else getting this? Any thoughts anyone?

Bam.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Judo Jeff:
I've had fantastic success with both Vegan and TNTLite (and stock actually) playing 720p video with both the Gallery player and Rock Player. You might want to check the encoding settings of the video you're trying to play. I've found that if it's too complex, your system will choke.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ~BAM~:
I've tried so many combinations of encode. Any settings suggestions?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xargon321:
You have to use base profile for hd main and high profile will choke it. i use handbrake and just set it for mp4 format(h.263) and set the bit rate at 4000 and it will play fine with no problems

Wow that's great! B frames help get the size down yeah? My setting results in bigger files. But I can't seem to get it to work with any b frames. Always works for 30 secs then crashes.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Judo Jeff:
It's mostly the CABAC that drives file size down...B-frames are present in baseline. But Tegra 2 can only do CABAC on 720p max 6Mbps, according to one spec I read somewhere. If you're doing 1080p, you have to turn CABAC off.

Run your encode through MediaInfo (it's free) and see what bitrate your video is in. I'm guessing there are parts that are peaking at higher than max. That's where the vbv max rate and buffer size strings come in.

Are you using Gallery or Rockplayer in hw accel mode? Those are the two that have worked for me. Try playing one after a fresh reboot.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ~BAM~:
Thanks Jeff!

I'll give it another try and see how we go. Did you put the entire string in the advanced tab or are you using it in a batch file format?

I'm just trying to figure out the parts to put in advanced tabe as well as the other video tab settings.

btw

just incase anyone is going to try smilies disabled in this post.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Judo Jeff:
That's my command line script... I think the only stuff you have to add to the box at the bottom of the advanced tab is the :profile=main...onwards.

everything after the -x is on the advanced tab if you're doing it in the program...so:

ref frames - 2

max b frames - 4

cabac - tick mark

everything else in that first column - default (or blank)

The middle column just tweaks quality but there's an efficiency tradeoff. You can leave everything default if you want, but I'm pretty picky...

Adaptive B-frames - Optimal (you can leave that default if you want)

Adaptive direct - default

Motion Estimation - uneven multi-hexagon

Subpixel - 9

me range - 16(default)

First slider stays where it is

Second slider (psychovisual) - I like to kick that up to 1.3

Everything else stays as default

And then add the profile...and you should be good to go. You can easily stay with a default and get a good encode, I run this batch overnight so I don't get upset that it takes longer to run and it encodes such that it looks good on a 60" plasma and on the G-tab. Keep in mind, on the video tab, you can play with how you encode (constant q (I like 19 but for 480p video, 20.5 is fine), or target size (which is handy for longer content to make sure it stays below 4GB).

And the batch code has the deinterlace filter activated...if your content is progressive, turn it off.

Wait...this is Samsung, God forbid they put out an up to date phone.

I know it hasn't been released yet. But I/O is here in what 4 days?

I theorize 3.1 because it will be a merge of the Tablet and Phone branches of Android, and I doubt they would down grade the version number of the tablets. so the number would have to be >=3.1
[Epic 4G General] rocket321:
Yeah the 4.3" screen may be a problem for those looking for an Epic 2. I think it would be absolutely huge. I personally am going for a non-kb device next. After all, the KB on the epic was pretty useless with all the skipped characters which forced me to become comfortable with swype.

I'd be all over the Evo 3D if it had an amoled display. Any phone w/o amoled will need to have very strong contrast levels with very low black's otherwise it will annoy the heck out of my to pay for a phone upgrade with a lesser quality screen.

I figure I'll be on the Epic until November 2012 since they removed the 1 year upgrade from my plan. At that point I may just keep it and flash over to Boost mobile for the uber cheap monthly rates.
