There are currently 190 MB free in my system partition, 219 MB in data and 11 GB in my sdcard, so I really want to use Links2SD on an ext partition in my SD, rather than anywhere else! ;)

But it's nice that there's progress!!

Your script requires

Reboot

adding at the end took me a while to make it work out,

or for others run script and reboot device enjoy
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] iridaki:
For me, reboot is not necessary.

LEDs are immediately disabled and I only reboot when I want to bring them back!

;)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Adolf1994:
reboot is not needed

only if sbin is read-only(stock kernel)

but as soon as I have some spare time, I'll make it better :)

[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Adolf1994:
A standalone version of the script in OP that automagically disables leds at startup

This doesn't need anything else from first post

, have fun

echo "\n\n# Darkness by Adolf1994\nDIR=$(cd /sys && find | grep brightness | cut -c 3- | cut -d : -f 1 | head -n 1)\nLED=/sys/$DIR\nLED1=$LED:rgb1:red/brightness\nLED2=$LED:rgb1:green/brightness\nLED3=$LED:rgb1:blue/brightness\nLED4=$LED:sled/brightness\necho 0 > $LED1\necho 0 > $LED2\necho 0 > $LED3\necho 0 > $LED4\nchmod 00444 $LED1\nchmod 00444 $LED2\nchmod 00444 $LED3\nchmod 00444 $LED4" >> /system/etc/hw_config.sh
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] CAYCE_VII:
I get this error when running the script:

I'm using Wolf's V6 ROM and DooMLoRD's V05 Kernel w/Boot Menu

Any Ideas?:confused:
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Adolf1994:
@CAYCE_VII, not a single one. At a first glance it looks like you didn't tick SU permission for script.

But if you did, it could be something with how the init script in ramdisk mounts partitions. Latter case requires DoomLord's opinion. And also please try out the one that disables at startup. It will append some lines to the end of /etc/hw_config.sh and those are required to be removed manually.

BTW, I'm still on 2.1, so any further modification will just be a shoot into the dark :p

EDIT: I slightly modified the first post to make it - hopefully - final.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] CAYCE_VII:
Is there a way to toggle them off AND on? I don't want them disabled ALL the time.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Adolf1994:
for now, just let me know if the startup one works. You can remove it later.

And your case is why I modified slightly my first post.

But before you do anything, tell me please, did you give superuser permission for my script? As the comment part of it says it needs that, too.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] CAYCE_VII:
yes it has SU permissions, I'm not THAT big of a noob :p. I even deleted it from SU and RE-Granted Root access...just so you know it DOES still turn off all the LEDs but it still gives an error for some reason. I can deal with the error if it turns the LEDS OFF, i just need a script to turn them back on now...PLEASE :D
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Adolf1994:
I see, but you know, it's better to prepare for the worst :p

Walk through the steps in the updated first post. If you challange any issues, just let me know.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] CAYCE_VII:
Okay so I was using an old version of the script. I was using this one.

DIR=$(cd /sys && find | grep brightness | cut -c 3- | cut -d : -f 1 | head -n 1)
LED=/sys/$DIR
LED1=$LED:rgb1:red/brightness
LED2=$LED:rgb1:green/brightness
LED3=$LED:rgb1:blue/brightness
LED4=$LED:sled/brightness
if [ -s /sbin/noled_tmp_reverse.prop ]; then
chmod 00644 $LED1
chmod 00644 $LED2
chmod 00644 $LED3
chmod 00644 $LED4
rm /sbin/noled_tmp_reverse.prop
else
echo 0 > $LED1
echo 0 > $LED2
echo 0 > $LED3
echo 0 > $LED4
chmod 00444 $LED1
chmod 00444 $LED2
chmod 00444 $LED3
chmod 00444 $LED4
echo 1 > /sbin/noled_tmp_reverse.prop
fi
exit

The one you have up now works fine. But how can I turn them back on without rebooting?
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Adolf1994:
Just run the script again and wait till the LEDs light up.

Ooops, another thing I should've added to first post:o
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] CAYCE_VII:
alright cool! I apparently used the one you first made a WHILE ago and never updated it. and i also forgot to add:

echo "\n\n\nrm /data/noled_tmp_reverse.prop" >> /system/etc/hw_config.sh

so that would be why they werent turning back on, it just takes like 10-15 seconds for them to kick back on.

Added the script to my folder of scripts! (YO DAWG, I HERD U LIEK SCRIPTS?)

i know there is 2 scripts in there and they are exactly the same but it seems more practical like this, UNLESS you have a way to have 1 script be on and 1 script be off...:D
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Adolf1994:
Wow, never heard about 'toggle' :D

Jk, it's your phone. Make it the way you like it :)

[Nexus S General] lambda30:
Ok, this may sound a little bit strange, but once, maybe twice a day, I see a long bar on the Awake status in the Battery Use screen, indicating that something is keeping the phone awake for some time, usually a couple of hours.

Straight example:

I charged my phone to 100% on 8 April, around 22:30.

It's 10 April, 14:35 now, so it's on for about 1d 16h.

It still has 26%, with screen brightness set at 10%.

The alarm was set to 9:00 on 10 April.

Usage statistics:

- Display 28% (2h 16m)

- Cell Standby 22% (1d 15h 44m)

- Android System 17% (51m keep awake)

- Phone Idle 9% (1d 13h 28m)

- Android OS 5%

- OS Monitor 5%

- Voice calls 4% (7m 24s)

- Google Services 3% (16m keep awake)

- Google Search 2%(12m keep awake)

- Launcher PRO 2%

On the battery graph, I clearly see the flat line part of the last night (10 April, 00:00 till 10 April, 9:00), where I was asleep, indicating that there was no awake state, and the battery wasn't drawn of power.

But, because I was to lazy to get up when the alarm rang at 9:00, I consecutively put it to snooze about 8-10 times. That meant from 9:00 till ~10:30. After the last time on snooze, I completely turned the alarm off. I got up at 13:30 (yea, I know, I was kinda of lazy today).

Well, the problem consists in the fact that, even after 10:30, when I shut the alarm down for good, it was still awake. The awake bar in the graph points from the first time I put it on snooze till when I got up. That means from 9:00 to 13:30.

I installed OS Monitor from the Market and analyzed the logs. Indeed, from 13:15 till 13:30, the wakeup wake lock was triggered about 15 times only for alarm. So, the process was still on, even after i turned it off. What gives ?

Is it normal to even stay awake after snooze ? Can't it just wake up right when the snooze time ends ? I can't believe that it really needs to stay on all the time. And what about AFTER I turned it off ? Why the hell does it need to stay awake then !?!?

It's so unbelievable, that I actually don't think it's something Google-related (Android code fail, I mean), maybe something to do with MY phone in particular, though that would be stupid as well, I know. So what the hell is going on here ?

PS: Oh, I almost forgot. It's not only the alarm. One night it started to stay in awake mode from ~01:00 midnight till 10:00 in the morning. Unfortunately, I didn't have OS Monitor installed then. But I can give you another 7 processes that bust the wake up, besides alarm. Those would be the following: mmc_delayed_work, gpio_input, modem_fmt, modem_ip_rx, KeyEvents, PowerManagerService, max8998-charger (WTF IS THIS !>!>!>>!>!?!>!>!!?!?!?!?)

PPS: About the battery, I think it's faulty, because I have barely used it in the last 1d 16h and it has 26% left. What do you think ?
[Nexus S General] Bamdroid:
Dont think its a faulty battery. I get 17-18hrs n I use the hell outta my phone (200-500 text/day, gtalk, twitter, reading news articles, a couple YouTube videos n maybe a phone call or 2...)
[Nexus S General] lambda30:
Yea, well... if I send 200-500 text/say + gtalk + etc. etc. those 1d 16h would drop to about 8-10h. Compare that to your 17-18h. It's not really good now, is it ?

What's your screen brightness and how long does your screen stay up ?
[Nexus S General] lambda30:
Well, I have an update for 1 process from the list of 7:

gpio_input, is a process that handles physical buttons. To be more precise, every time you press the power button to wake up the device, the process is being activated.

Furthermore, after I pressed 2 times Volume Up + 1 time Volume Down + Power button, with a total of 4 button presses, it would fire up 4 distinctive gpio_input processes. So, for every physical button pressed, another process would fire up.

So no need to worry about this one. Let's see the others. The alarm one is still present all over the freaking place !

PS: Forgot to mention something: the always-awake state has gone sometime during the day. I think it was right after I did a restart. Dunno why... it just ended. Pff.
[Nexus S General] RogerPodacter:
I think this is a bug because I see it on my nexus one too. Over night I'll see solid line for hours showing my phone woke up. But interestingly no battery drain happens, its just reported as being awake.
[Nexus S General] lambda30:
Exactly.

As for the battery, I've calculated my usage of 3G talk-time (10 mins of talk time on my phone representing 4% of battery), compared to the official stated talk-time (of 400 mins):

Oficial:

400mins = 100%

10 mins = x%

x = 2.5% from the total battery level (x represents how much % of battery level should 10mins of 3G talk eat juice, after Google standards)

Real stats:

10 min = 4% out of 95% battery level

Phone = 4/100*95= 3.4% from the TOTAL 100% battery

y mins = 100%

10 mins = 3.4%

y = 1000/3.4 = 294mins ~= 300mins REAL TALK TIME

So, after calculations, it seems that for MY phone, the 3G talk time is actually 300mins, not 400 as Google states. That's an argument for WHY I actually believe my battery sucks. Well, it doesn't TOTALLY suck, as some of your batteries here on the forum... but it is indeed below the standard. Isn't it ?
[Nexus S General] lambda30:
Yep, it happened again. No problems during the night, but in the morning, when the alarm started, the always awake state has begun. It now shows a long blue bar that spans for about 3-4 hours. What is peculiar is that the wake lock alarm is on during the hole day, even if the alarm is completely off.

LE: Surprisingly, after a restart, it would sleep normally. I can't think of any other possibility besides the alarm (I mean, if you put the alarm to snooze, it will keep your phone in permanent awake state onwards from that point.)
[Nexus S General] lambda30:
What is even more interesting, is that you don't need to restart the device to finally put it back to sleep, as I stated above. I've charged it to max and the always-awake state was gone. Interesting, isn't it ? Guess it's just a glitch... If, somehow, someone knows the answer to this, I would gladly listen to it. Until then, well... I guess I'll just forget about it and never bother again. Hope you guys don't have problems with this and/or something similar. Cheers !
[Nexus S General] seleko:
I have the same on Acer Liquid Metal.

Any remedy foud?

Tried to track down with aLog, but useless :(
[Nexus S General] lambda30:
I'm not quite sure... but I think maybe Maps is the cause. Again, I'm not sure at all, I'm just seeking a pattern every day I use it, and this far, Maps has been the best bet for this glitch. Can you confirm that ?

LE: Forgot. The remedy is, well... just go to Task Manager and stop the app.

Also, I have seen 3 instances of this process:

- com.google.android.apps.maps

- com.google.android.apps.maps:NetworkLocationService (I think this one is the problem)

- com.google.android.apps.maps:Friends (or something like this; and wondered what the hell it is for...)
[Nexus S General] anirudh.pullela:
For me the culprit is definitely maps. And that effect is doubled when I'm signed in to latitude. Just by signing out of latitude I can double my battery life and by disabling "wireless networks" in the location settings my battery life can be tripled! There is something really wrong with the maps app here.
[Nexus S General] lambda30:
Thanks a lot for the input, really appreciate it. Unfortunately, I don't use Latitude, so I can't confirm that part. Neither the wireless networks part, I haven't notice that before... but I'll see what I can come up with.

If you knew how to read correctly, Gorilla Glass only protects against COMPRESSIVE damage, that is, dropping a ball on it. Scratches are not compressive. Well OK, they sort of are. Scratches are pressing down while moving with a sharp object. But still, different physics.
[myTouch 4G General] mark manning:

yea thats weird.. it pretty much says every single HTC android phone ever made has gorilla glass..
[myTouch 4G General] camalus:
Just because it has gorilla glass does not mean you don't need a screen protector.

The glass does not prevent scratching. It only means more direct pressure is needed for the glass to crack.

It still will break. And it sure as hell will still scratch.
