Can anybody tell me why when I flash a rom the first use the battery does awesome the next time I'll lose 20% within a hour.. any rom then it's good the last 80%
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
I'm here :cool:. I have situational ones usually, not necessarily age-related ones, but I'm sure I can find something if need be :D.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cmonsterf50:
Likely its related to the phone sync and setup. You might try flashing a different kernel and see if it helps. Also wiping battery stats at time of install.

Tapatalk like cookies ... nmmm
[EVO 4G Android Development] ant76:
Can I wipe battery stats now and not mess anything up
[EVO 4G Android Development] Craigerade:
Yeah. I would charge to 100% then wipe battery stats from recovery.
[EVO 4G Android Development] infamousteeboy:
The way I do this to calibrating my battery is:

-Charge till green

-Unplug power down

-Plug in

-Charge till green

-Unplug power up

-Charge till green

-Boot to recovery

-Wipe Battery stats

-Reboot

-Charge till green

-Optional let the battery die

-Charge till green

I do this when I flash a new ROM everytime works pretty good iMO

Is there a way to get voicemail to text hacked like the hotspot app ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] phillysdon04:
Also is there a way to always make the sense 2.1 caller id screen pop up instead of the sense 3.0? I installed city caller id and it only works with the old caller id screen when I have the phone screen on and unlocked while retrieving a call then city caller id shows the city and state the call is coming from.

Just wanted to give you a little update. This ROM is amazing. Been using it almost since it came out. Haven't even had the itch to switch to another ROM. Very good job on this build!

I would like to hack Voicemail to take away the "Try Voicemail to Text" button in the voicemail app. It is always there and since the screen does not turn off when listening to voicemail I almost always hit that button when listening using the ear-piece. Makes the playback stop and I have to start over.

New question for what appears to be a quiet day today on this forum ;)

com.htc.weatheridlescreen has been stuck in memory three different times draining my battery (I'm using betterbatterystats and system panel to monitor this). Is the weatheridlescreen related to the lockscreen I selected in mikg2.5 (I use the Weather (current) lockscreen)?

Each time this happened my battery drained abnormally fast and the process kept the phone from sleeping.

Has anyone else experienced this? If so, and without recommending I disable that particular lockscreen (I'm fond of it), is this a known issue and is there a fix for it?

Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] buckhunter:
I run the blue weather lockscreen and my phone sleeps fine. Maybe Jade or Nick will have some ideas when they get on here.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
I've never used them, but I think that might be the nature of the beast with that lockscreen. Technically its always hitting the weather, right?
[EVO 4G Android Development] bluenadas:
I don't think it is constantly syncing, but rather follows the sync timing set in the accounts & sync settings.

If it is holding the phone from sleeping, might be something else at play here.

When did you flash last? Has this been an issue since the flash? Since any changes/mods/themes/etc?
[EVO 4G Android Development] buckhunter:
+1 I thing it does go by what you set it to in the sync account settings I have mine on 1hr.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Good points, but isn't it kind of a "live" wallpaper type thing? Maybe not, like I said I've never used it. Could be some kind of rogue app as well.
[EVO 4G Android Development] beepsilver:
Yes, but I would think that process would terminate rather than run steady. Thx to you and everyone else for the info; I'll keep monitoring.

*edit* I have weather set to sync every hour only.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Hmm..Yea not sure man and no problem, anytime.;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jason Black:
If you have it set to update everytime weather is opened, then it will obviously update everytime weather is opened...

Odd. What lock screen are you using? I'm using the clock with the Insomnia (?) ring, and it works very smooth. Though I do tend to turn the lock screen off during working hours. Just recently went back to More Freedom 0.8.5 because I was not getting good battery life with 0.9, but it's smooth with both...

[EVO 4G Android Development] coiledwire:
I believe KC gathered all of the volltage per frequency in the freedom kernel and was going to see if certain settings do improve battery life. I don't know if you'd see any difference between 125 and 245 from a battery life point of view.

Sent on the run.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kc_hubbard:
Yeah, well... That was a great idea, but between work, family, coaching etc I have yet to be able to try to formulate anything empirical. In theory, we should be able to use the time spent in each state multiplied by the amount of power each state uses on a particular kernel to find out battery draw. You could then substitute different voltages for different clock speeds to see if there is a big enough difference to warrant making the change.

Would like to try to do some controlled tests of this in the next couple of weeks or so, but no promises. I coach 2 football teams and have a son who plays high school ball that I go watch as well...not a whole lot of time left between that and work.

EDIT: The voltages are found in the acpuclock-scorpion****.c files at https://github.com/lithid/Htc-Sense-Freedom-Kernel/tree/master/arch/arm/mach-msm
[EVO 4G Android Development] buckhunter:
+1 before it got laggy I didnt see any difference between 128/245
[EVO 4G Android Development] JerryGNYC:
I'm not familiar with blue weather. I did use the regular(?) weather lock screen, don't recall any lag since I've been on More Freedom 0.8.5 or higher. :confused:
[EVO 4G Android Development] beepsilver:
Ah, I apologize; I forgot to respond to these questions.

On Friday I did a complete wipe and flashed 2.52 followed by Aggressive Freedom .9--prior to that I was using mik 2.52 and Chopsuey 9.2.7--same lockscreen and same issue with both configurations (I don't use any mods/themes...well, I tried coiledwire's depagination about 10 days ago but changed it back.

I suspect it may have been my sync configuration as you eluded, which I've changed, so I'm currently monitoring to see if I can duplicate the problem.

Thanks for your insight!
[EVO 4G Android Development] buckhunter:
Its pretty much the same setup as the regular weather but blue background

The phone was just slow for a few mins after I unlocked. When I changed back to 245 its all good now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] JerryGNYC:
Yeah, 128 was good for the battery but not good for the phone... :p:D
[EVO 4G Android Development] coiledwire:
I feel you KC, time is hard to come by. In theory, we should be able to extract the data for 1) battery drain, and 2) time in CPU state, and 3) vdd for CPU state. The 1st 2 would need to have the same system time-stamp to correlate them.

If someone can send this to me, I can grind out some good info in excel. The longer the data pull, the more robust the result will be. This is just an idea if someone wants to mine for this.

Anyone know if there's a way to remove all the sense 3.0 stuff? My fiance doesn't like it very much but loves MikG's speed and functionality. Basically she wants this rom but with the original sense 1.0/2.1 lockscreen and weather app animations.

Or could anyone recommend a rom that has the same perks as MikG but in a less sense 3.0 package? Thanks!

I don't think the boot animation is limiting the bootup speed. You could try to delete the animation file to see the effects. I'd make a backup first.

Which kernels work with this? Chops, freedom, golden monkey? Or do we use older sense kernels?

You must use a gingerbread sense kernel. That means Stock (comes with the ROM), Freedom, ChopSuey or Golden Monkey. I am using Freedom and it works well.

Great. Thanks!

The freedom agressive set at 245min/768max on InteractiveX is a popular setup. If aggressive gives you issues try the freedom more and so on until you find the one that works best in your phone.

Been running 128/998 I thought about decreasing it to 728 but i get a bit of lag when opening messaging. But on 128 for me there isn't really a slow or lagging issue and i run about 62% of my time on the 128. So i run the 998 because i get a tad bit better battery life at it sitting at 128.

Also Freedom more gave me some signal issues and random reboots but aggressive fixed it XD Weird.

Anyways Anyone come up with the fix for the messaging VIEW stuck on 2 thing? I didn't get anywhere with it nor was i able to find the cause.
[EVO 4G Android Development] expose11:
Anyone have any issue with the time zone changing. I had this happen twice since being on 2.51. I just went to time & date and unchecked and rechecked automatic to get it fixed. I am unclear as to what controls the time zone so I don't know where to trouble shoot. Do apps have control to change time zone?
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
They shouldn't. Although Im sure there might be a permission for it. Try flashing 2.52 and clearing your cache and dalvik. That may help.
[EVO 4G Android Development] quocamole:
do you have an airave? i had the issue and it turned out that the airave was providing the wrong time zone to the phone. also read that sprint cs are the only people who can change that.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bdwright77:
Hello everyone. I only have a rare few posts, but I've been following this thread and others for a long time. Taken note of the regulars and the do's and don'ts as best I can. :o

Anyway, I have an issue I'm hoping you guys can help me with. I'm running MikG 2.51 with stock kernel. Whenever listening to music (all MP3s) with either the stock app or PlayerPro, I get intermittent pauses or "skips" like a scratched CD.

Now, today, I pulled everything off of my 32GB card, formatted FAT32, backed up my ROM and all, then did a cache and davlik wipe, and started listening again. Same problems.

Any idea what's causing this? The same files are fine when played on the computer, and the pause/skip doesn't occur at the same time if you listen to the song again.

Thanks for the help!
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Well could be bunch of things...Have you flashed any other mods/themes/etc or are you running it stock? Do you have any screen saver/task killer apps/etc running in the background? Did you restore any settings/data with TB after you flashed rom? Are you running a2sd?

Best thing to do would be make a nand of what you have now and wipe everything except sdcard with amon ra and then reflash rom and try to play music completely stock and see if it skips.

That way you can be sure it's something in your setup and not the rom, necessarily.

[EVO 4G Android Development] bdwright77:
No other mods, but I did do app restores with Titanium. I'll give your suggestion a shot to see if a clean install will eliminate the problem. Thanks.

---------- Post added at 03:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:04 PM ----------

Good to know. I'll try and troubleshoot for a while and let you know if I isolate the issue.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xxRAMOTHxx:
Quick question are you getting the skips with screen off? Or does it skip all the time?
[EVO 4G Android Development] bdwright77:
Well, definitely with screen off, though I haven't tried keeping the screen on and listening. What would be the issue there you think?

I read somewhere with people speculating that it's a memory issue, but my phone doesn't really lag or otherwise suffer from any general memory problems.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
No problem, keep us posted.

Good point and question here.

Do you have any screen off profiles? For instance underclocking your cpu when the screen is off.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xxRAMOTHxx:
No more than likely this is it... You running one of the new kernels.. Like Freedom? If so get Setcpu and set your governor to performance for me and fire up some music and lock the screen.

Those new kernels lock the cpu at the lowest setting by default with the screen off and Pandora and playing music from the SD card suffers. Then when you are done listening to music just set it back to Interactive or whichever governor you like.

HTH
[EVO 4G Android Development] ultra74:
Do you have something like a SetCPU profile (or kernel hack) for screen off cpu throttle down to like 125MHZ? If you do, that could be it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bdwright77:
Quite honestly, I haven't installed any other scripts or mods to alter the voltages of the CPU. I attempted to flash AGGRESSIVE FREEDOM once, but it really jacked up my phone (no unlock ring would appear), so I completely wiped and have been running the stock kernel in MikG 2.51 ever since.

I'm not nearly educated enough about undervolting and the like to do any of those, but powersaver is on and there is the task killer that comes in the quick settings / notification bar of the ROM, as you all know.

I'll see if I avoid the skipping while leaving the screen on and report back. If any of this has given you guys some other ideas, let me know.

Again, thanks to you all for the time and help.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
I would say best course is to go back to completely stock and see if it does it, because I run both pandora and regular music with my screen off and no skips. Now pandora will skip/delay every so often, but that's because I'm in spotty 3g areas.

I'm not sure what you mean by powersaver? Is that an app you have running?
[EVO 4G Android Development] bdwright77:
Sorry, I was referring to the setting / feature in MikG which automatically disables certain features once your battery reaches 15% or less. I've experienced the skips with a full battery, so I doubt that's the issue, but felt it was worth mentioning.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
No problem. Just wasn't sure if it was an app. I don't usually ever get that low so I don't see it.

Well keep us posted.

[EVO 4G Android Development] sinnedone:

Hello guys and thanks for MiKG. Love it. I'm still running version 2.3 and was wondering if there was a major update coming soon? It seems like about that time. If not then I won't wait and update to 2.5x
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jason Black:
Okay on this one you need to be a little more careful. If you're running that v8 3g tweak then, dont install the 3g script that's there. If you want a boot animation, then dont install the no boot animation script. These go to the bottom of your build.prop which is located in the system folder. Use root explorer oe whatever you want to insert the values you want in there. The only line you probably wont need is the nobootanimation line so pay attention and remove it if you like boot animations.

Like i said, review the scripts for the build.prop and see the one you want. I know for sure some people like boot animations, i dont really care for them, hence i took it off with the script.

Mik....

Off-topic guys...apologize in advance.

Please consider developing a Sense 3.5 ROM. I've been watching developments out there and just saw where one 3.5 dev is having a meltdown, threatening to pull the thread from XDA, emotions running amok, and all.

I've come to regard your (and MikMik Team's) ROMS as high quality and the forums supporting them to be helpful, patient with newbs, and very professional. Please keep up the good work.

I'm not sure what mik is gonna do Maybe he will, maybe he won't. I don't know how to make flashable zips. It's pretty easy. Copy the entire content for the build.prop, then go to system/build.prop and post it in there. For the init.d, copy the whole thing you see here, then go to system/etc/init.d and post it there. You can use root explorer and make sure you change it from r/w to r/o.
