4g settings...

Hey I'm trying to go into my 4g setting via ##3282# but it doesn't do anything when I try. All I want to do is rescan 4g quicker when it loses connection. I never had a problem with the other roms I have installed. Any help would be great.

Thanks in advance.

would i be able to ask, what makes this rom much different than synergy? is there any major difference other than odex'ed and not?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Godzilla77:
How do I go back to the regular theme on this Rom? I changed to a different theme and am not really into it.

Thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] alammori:
Boot into Recovery, Wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache, then reinstall the ROM again, you will though keep all your data and setup.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vcumsk:
After going back and forth with MikG and Synergy for a few months, I still think MikG is a bit smoother and stable imo. I've had problems of lag and rare random reboots with Synergy, tried every kernel out there. The only good things about Synergy is the 24/7/365 support in their thread and the Warm theme.

You either need to upgrade your radios or downgrade EPST (which is easier). For EPST, flash this file (courtesy of mando41) and you should be good to go.

Please help!!!

Guys,

Thanks again for all your work and thanks to the community.

You guys recommended that I upgrade my Rom from the mik froyo.

Here is the deal. I did that but now my battery is now HORRIBLE.

I did the simple tweaks and limited animation, weather, gps, BT, auto light off, etc. but to no avail.

I am running the mikg v2.41....if you have any suggestions please let me know. And if you want to recommend another Rom better on battery so I could see the difference please PM me because that would probably be disrespectful.

Thanks in advance!
[EVO 4G Android Development] coiledwire:
Try recalibrating the battery; charge to 100%, wipe stats, run down to 0% until shuts off and you can't turn it on, then charge back to 100% before turning back on.

Check for wake lock; awake time = uptime. If so, look for a rouge app that is always using cpu time in the background.

Try running either freedom kernel or chop suey kernel, as they have better CPU management than the stock kernel.

I don't know what you ran with froyo, but if you used a sbc kernel you won't be used to the immediate 5-10% drop with non-sbc (stock) charging algorithms like we have with all sense gingerbread kernels right now. Its not abnormal, just harder to get used to.

There's nothing that makes this rom more harsh on the battery than other roms. What you're experiencing is possible when flashing any rom. Check the above items. This type of troubeshooting is a good skill to have in your back pocket if you flash roms, even infrequently as I suspect is the case here. Good luck.

What set up do you recommend for battery life, and stability

Thanks again
[EVO 4G Android Development] dcharleyultra:
Do you know that the latest version of this ROM is 2.5?

Swyped from my Evo 4G using Tapatalk
[EVO 4G Android Development] JerryGNYC:
Yes, Synergy is a ROM.

I've been using ChopSUEY v.9.1 for several days now, and my set up is smooth and stable.

Before that, I was using Lithid-CM's Less Freedom kernel, and it too, is good.

There are different variations of the Freedom kernel (under-volting levels are different), and which one will give you the best battery life and stablility is a matter of testing on > your < own phone. These devices are highly individualistic, just like people. :)

Top of the early morning to ya Selders and the rest of MikWorld.

I woke up morning wanting to start a viral rumor that Mik will be out of pocket for awhile because he is working on a MikRom for the HP Touchpad, wishful thinking I guess :rolleyes:
[EVO 4G Android Development] SlamTheDoor:
I upgraded to MikG from stock and had dreadful battery life at first (MikG 2.15, back in July). I was using the same apps I had always used with the same settings and the battery would drain to nothing within a few hours. I was sure it was the ROM's fault. But I kept working with it and it got better.

I followed all the advice I could find: I wiped battery stats. I bought a new battery. I got rid of Juice. I changed the sync schedule for all my apps. I used the 'BetteryBatteryStats' app and the 'System Panel' app to closely monitor which apps were using battery, using wakelocks, and kept track of the amount of usage every day for weeks. I uninstalled apps I didn't need.

And, after all that, now my battery life is pretty good. There wasn't any magic bullet that fixed it, but I think it was a combination of many things.

The point is...if you're having battery issues it's probably not the ROM and you can resolve but it might take a lot of work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] JerryGNYC:

If it's anything like my laptop, it's set to "sleep" after so long, and when it does, USB charging goes away. I cannot charge my phone overnight plugged into my laptop because of this. It stops charging.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Black-Dash:
No, I have never tried that! Also, I haven't flashed any kernels. Does that help?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Black-Dash:
I can charge my battery to 100% overnight and after about 15mins off of the charger, (no exaggeration)

It would have gone down to 90% with no usage at all. Thats what I call horrible! Maybe I will flash a kernel, but I have always been nervous to do so because I've read that if you don't update em correctly you could possibly brick your phone!
[EVO 4G Android Development] kc_hubbard:
You gotta read these forums more.

What you are seeing is part of stock HTC battery charging setup. Stock kernels charge the battery to somewhere between 90%-100% and report it as 100%. It does this so that you will not overcharge your battery. So, if you happen to take the phone off the charger when it's near 90%, it's going to look like it drops really fast, when in fact, it's really just dropping from 90%. Really...this has been discussed for over a year (ever since our EVO's were released).

I'm assuming you are coming from a ROM where you had an SBC kernel. SBC allows your phone to charge all the way to the 100% level. Then, when you take it off the battery, it's really at 100% and therefore takes longer for the it to drop to something lower than 90%. See this link for more explanation: http://androidforums.com/evo-4g-sup...our-battery-drops-10-15-first-20-minutes.html

Although we do have custom kernel's available to us (see lithid's Freedom, Barnacle's ChopSuey or Net's Golden Monkey)...none of them have SBC yet.

Please DO NOT attribute HTC's implementation of battery charging to poor battery life of this ROM. That is simply wrong. Battery life on this ROM is as good as or better than any Sense-based GB ROM out there.

EDIT: BTW, this battery drop happens on Stock ROMS as well.

EDIT2: Wow, can't type this morning...corrected a couple of typos.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kc_hubbard:
Custom kernels will absolutely help. I'm partial to lithid's Freedom but have heard good things about Chop Suey as well. The reason these help are many, but to give you a couple: kernels are under-volted, meaning they draw less voltage than stock; and 2) they have different governors available for use (InteractiveX for example has a built in screen off profile that limits the frequency to the lowest avail while your screen is off).

Flashing kernels isn't likely to brick your phone. Incorrect flashing of radio's is the biggest bricker of phones.

Nandroid and flash away.

2.5 ROM is great only one thing I noticed, when it comes to the volume for my messages or e-mails, it will always stay loud. The ringer volume is cool but the media sounds for those items will not decrease. Does that happen to some of you all?
[EVO 4G Android Development] bluenadas:
The reasons behind the drop are really a cause of lithium battery technology and HTC not wanting to ruin batteries.

Lithium batteries hate being at 100%. And charging past that is terribly detrimental to their life.

So HTC instead allows the phone to charge to 100% and then shuts off charging until the percentage drops to 90%. Then the charger comes back on and charges back to 100%...

The problem is that the phone reports 100% regardless. And the charge cycle can happen many times while plugged in. The excessive drop you see is caused by you pulling the phone off the charger when not at 100% charge. After a short bit the reported percentage will correct itself and show the actual charge value.

SBC kernels simply trickle charge the battery. I haven't done any testing in their effect on battery life yet but do plan to do so. But if improperly implemented they have the potential of causing lower battery life. Of course in todays cell phone market, the throw away phone doesn't need a battery that lasts any longer than the next release anyway.

Once I'm at the PC I'll expand a bit on the details....typing big posts from a phone simply sucks.

[EVO 4G Android Development] kc_hubbard:
How long ago did you flash ChopSuey? Have you checked for wakelocks? How many charge cycles have you let run? Need more info to be able to help.

I do not use SetCPU for anything except to set my freqs and governor. Profiles take overhead to manage and, IMHO anyway, likely are not worth the battery they use. If you use InteractiveX (or Smarta$$, tho it's not as good) you shouldn't need much in the way of profiles as these have a built-in screen off profile anyway.

What recovery are you using? What version, if using Amon RA 2.3 it should work just fine.

setCPU is useless with the stock kernel. Using froyo kernels may cause this because they are not designed for 2.3.3 As for VVM I restored my data from a Sprint CDMA rom and it works just fine.
