That really takes all the fun out of it...those douchebags! As soon as I get some extra cash I'm gonna donate to every freakin' dev who has ever helped me. I wouldn't waste my money on that.

Lol. +1
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
Good for you. You can handle it. I've been doing the computer thing since the Apple ][, and the phone world was a little overwhelming for me as well. It's just new, not necessarily more difficult.

I did more than my share of reading prior to rooting, and you know how many problems I had? A whole entire whopping ZERO. ;-)

We must've been in the same general school class, Apple II's at school here, too.

The 8" discs escape me, the 5.25" ones however, i'll never forget. :D
[HTC Inspire 4G] doktor buknasty:
I actually decided to check out their YouTube vids they made. Very shocked to see they charge so much for something so simple. One vid stated, "Our rooting process includes Eng-Off, which is a requirement for loading new roms." That made me laugh for a bit.
[HTC Inspire 4G] harlenm:
I have a friend that wants to root his phone, but doesn't have any idea how to do it. So I shipped him a spare phone and he's sending me his to root. It's costing me money to do it since I paid for the shipping.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
Send your friends newly rooted phone back to him COD in the amount of all shipping charges, plus a little shipping & handling fee... ;)
[HTC Inspire 4G] legend221:
Thanks to the hack kit I was able to root my phone. The bubby method just downgraded my Rom and hung there. The rest of the way I used the kit to finally do it. The S-Off disabling as well.

Don't pay some guys over priced fees, try and do it your self. You'll congratulate yourself afterwards and its FREE

[Nook Color General] austontatious:
I am running CM7.0.0 with Dalingrens OC at 1.18GHz. Nothing else crazy, although I did have it set up for dual boot, but not anymore.

My nook will boot up, make it through the CM7 boot screen, and then go to my home screen, but thats it. I can't select anything, the N button won't work, it won't go to sleep. After a while it reboots. This happened sometime last night when it was on the charger. If I boot into ClockWorkMod everything functions normally. I have tried reflashing CM7, but no dice. It flashed but didn't fix the problem. Any ideas before I do a full wipe/reset?

Also, if I do a full wipe, does that wipe emmc as well?

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Digistras:
Hi all,

I'm currently using GSPlayer v2.29 to play various audio files on my HTC Touch 2 (QVGA) and I'm quite satisfied with it but however, not totally happy about it as I feel that it could be better with some improvements which I'm gonna list out as follows:

1. Volume Control

Volume control should have the "+" and "-" buttons and in steps of "5" like what the Windows Media Player Mobile have to better micro-control the volume. The volume slider is just not smooth and precise enough for finger control. Although they have the "Volume up" and "Volume down" control, but u need to navigate to "Tool" then "Volume up" or "Volume down". It would be better if the "Volume up" and "Volume down" are easily accessible on the main screen.

2. Mute Audio

There should be a button to mute or unmute the audio by instantly finger touch the "Mute" button.

3. Equalizer

For adjustment of the equalizer, is better if there is a "Up" or "Down" button on each band. Each activitation of the "Up" or "Down" button should incease or decrease the band in steps of 0.5db.

I have pretty seen most of the Media and audio players for Windows Mobile posted on this forum and most of them are still lacking in terms of the above mentioned flaws for GSPlayer. So I would like to know:

1. Is there any good media player for Windows Mobile that have all the functionality as mentioned above?

2. Is there any media players for Windows Mobile that have similar or pretty much very close to the functionality required to the above mentioned?

Thanks in advance
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Digistras:
Hi all,

So does anyone knows a really good player that have all the above mentioned included?

114 views and no replies? C'mon....it can't be that bad right?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Digistras:
So is there or is there not a media player for Windows Mobile that have it?

Why is there still no reply?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] BOOTMGR:
If you are talking about audio player then switch to nitrogen or pocket music.For audio and video player Coreplayer is best option
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] pupakota:
skip above advice and go for mortplayer. FAR superior to wmp, and 95% of snd players, and very flexible(skinning, configuration).

it can use gsplayer plugins.

Hello,

I've been trying to download the generic firmware for X10a from the post listed in this forum the last couple of days but I never get past 50 to 60%.

This is my first post so I cannot put the link for Megaupload here, but you can see it in the post about debranding the X10.

I do not have the premium but I never had issues downloading before.

Does anyone else have an alternative link?

Thank you!

Update:

Oh well! Just minutes after posting Megaupload decided to let me download it... All weekend long trying to get it withot luck and first attempt on Monday morning works...

I guess I'll give up downloading during weekends unless I go premium.

Hi guys,

I noticed something when restoring a Nandroid Backup with CWM 2.5.1.3:

1. I have 870MB left on the internal memory

2. I make a Nandroid backup and flash something else

3. then I make a full wipe and restore the Nandroid Backup

4. I have 820MB left on the internal memory

Did anyone else noticed this problem??

Does anyone know if this problem is gone with CWM 3.0.0.6/3.0.2.5 ????

Thank you very much
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superstick1:
Hi lilil

The CWM 2.51.3 and 3.0.0.6 has nothing to do with "consuming" memory.

After you restore back the back-up, do you delete the back-up? Cause the back-up will obviously eat space.

Unless you delete that back-up, it will definitely takes up memories. You can check whether you have any back-ups left in ROM Manager itself.

Tap ROM Manager >> Manage and Restore Back-ups >> Hold the Back-up(if any) and tap delete

Cheers =)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilil:
But aren't the backups on the SD card ????
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frosty_ice:
Backups are indeed on the sdcard. Would kinda defeat the point otherwise.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] geoemm:
I am using the lol 1.4.2 and I would like to try the latest tweaks from franciscofranco.can I use all three files to flash the tweak or should I avoid using the libsqlite.so file.

also after flashing the lol 1.4.2 just like it is described in the lol threat, my quadrant score is only in the range of 500.and the internal memory is shown as 170+MB,in settings/SD card. so is there any problem with my rom installation and is the app2sd nor working.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] geoemm:
guys someone please help...

thanks in advance
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Momaro:
everything is working as it should for you. LOL doesn't have stagefright on by default, hence the "low" quadrant score. and a2sd is part of lol and it is working too.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] drmulla:
there is alot of ROM with high quadrant score

but i note most of them with high I/O score with mostely equal other scores

some of the ROM are very speed with low score and some of them very laggy with high score

so...what is the mean of I/O?? is it importent ??? , why laggy with high score

can some body explain to me please>>:)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] johnston9234:
quadrant scores arent as accurate as one may think. Its usually a good idea to base your idea of a rom off of real time usage rather than a quadrant score. However, you can get an fairly accurate depiction of how fast a rom is going to run if the quadrant scores are drastically different. Such as Droid eris vs an HTC evo quadrant score.

Does that clear it up?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] drmulla:
yes..

but what is the meaning of I/o ???
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] johnston9234:
I/O is just input/output

As simply as possible it is just the time it takes for the communication between an information processing system (such as a computer), and the outside world, possibly a human, or another information processing system.

In computer architecture, the combination of the CPU and main memory (i.e. memory that the CPU can read and write to directly, with individual instructions) is considered the brain of a computer, and from that point of view any transfer of information from or to that combination, for example to or from a disk drive, is considered I/O.

any better?
[Fascinate General] AuroEdge:
For my individual phone I discovered that EC01 plus Juice Defender has drastically improved battery life. I will say previously with SuperClean that Juice Defender had a much smaller effect.
[Fascinate General] deaffob:
That means you have something that's using a lot of data.
[Fascinate General] mstahl302:
Turn of Contact Sync

I've been using EB01 (not EC01) for about a month, and having horrible battery life.

Using the battery monitor (Settings->About phone->Battery use), I traced it to an internal process, sometimes called "Android Core Apps", also known as android.process.acore. I also used an app called "System", which showed that android.process.acrore was regularly pegging the CPU at 100%.

A little reading on the web suggested that it might be related to syncing of contacts. So I did a little experimentation and here's what I discovered:

- If I sync to ONE gmail account, it consumes battery pretty fast (about 5% an hour). If I turn off sync (but leave the contacts on the phone), it gets better, but not perfect.

- If I sync to TWO gmail accounts (for example, home and work), it consumes battery at a tremendous rate (about 10% an hour). If i turn off sync for both accounts, it DOESN'T GET BETTER. The CPU continues to spike and the battery life is miserable.

- To stop the drain, I had to BOTH turn off all contact sync AND erase the contact book. (Settings>Applications>Manage Applications->All [tab]->Contacts Storage->Clear Data). Then my battery life was PERFECT. Android.process.acore completely dropped off the battery use list. Of course, I have no contacts on the phone at this point, but my battery life is great. :)

My theory is that Samsung's custom andress book is really screwed up, especially around the "linking" feature. It just churns and churns, eating battery. It gets worse the more contact books you sync.

The next thing I plan to try (when I have time) is to export my gmail contacts to a file, and then import them into the local contact storage. I will try to de-dup them before hand. I'll let you know what I find out.

CORRECTION: I originally wrotet that this data applied to EC01. I am actually using EB01, not EC01. Message text above has been updated.
[Fascinate General] Kevin Gossett:
EC01 has only been available for a week or so... How have you been using it for a month?
[Fascinate General] mstahl302:
My bad. I'm using EB01, not EC01. I have no experience w/ EC01, so can't comment.
[Fascinate General] KitsuneKnight:
Like the facebook widget. Delete the crap that's wasting data instead of crippling it partly while letting it continue to be wasteful.

I found JuiceDefender only hurt my battery life, and caused quite a lot of syncing to break (and use Push for anything that supports it... that'll cause its battery use to quickly approach zero, while getting instant updates, instead of 30min-multihour delay!).
[Fascinate General] AuroEdge:
Under Network Usage in Spare Parts there are a couple big spenders. Android System is up there no surprise but something labeled as "0" is by and large the most battery life costly. When I tap on it, Spare Parts force closes. I do remember having something named "1013" do the same thing on SuperClean.
[Fascinate General] prehistorical:
Learned very belatedly that NoLED has been one of the big battery drainers for me, even on various versions of SC (NV). Also has been said in the past: sometimes things happen during a ROM flash that cannot be replicated when you reflash so this may explain why I kept restoring back to EB01 to have half a decent battery life until they started posting steps in Dev on clearing things out using ODIN Stock EB01 w/ Pit. Quite educational.
[Fascinate General] minho422:
Juice defender is a placebo...it doesn't actually increase the battery life. If it did, Google would've applied that in default.
[Fascinate General] luke949:
I have noticed that I don't receive pic texts while using juice defender because it turns off 3g. So I don't use it.
[Fascinate General] Mystique:
You probably never "adjusted" google talk, and set it to not sign in automatically..

And then there is that weird option at the bottom of the display settings.. disable that as well..

Also the news and weather application refreshes every so often, adjust that as well..

JuiceDefender helps with the phone in your pocket all day/no real signal issue..

If you turn your data radio off, the phone will still ring and your sms' will continue as normal both in and out.. see what the battery life is then..

Also (assuming that you are rooted) there is an excellent kernel, OTB 1.2 which would also allow you to under volt your phone..

But the above settings will help any fascinate if you have not already done so.
[Fascinate General] keith.mcintyre26:
You'll still get text/calls, but not email/mms/gtalk etc. Text and calls use 1xrtt data and mms/email/internet/etc. use mobile data. I use a manual "juice defender" which is turning off mobile data in my notification toggles.
[Fascinate General] AuroEdge:
Disabled google talk auto sign in. Also disabled that power saving mode in display setting. The display option uses battery?
[Fascinate General] CPCisHere:
That is a suggestion. Going to see if that helps my battery.
[Fascinate General] Relaxasaurus:
Juice Defender has drastically improved my battery life. Rolling with EB01 radio + Community Rom 1.1

Issue is since it completely shuts off data I don't get incoming Google Voice texts. :( A shame since I use GV as my primary number.. I really need a better solution. I would even be happy with a thicker Fascinate if the battery life was decent. :eek:

I'll try EC01 and see if that improves anything.
[Fascinate General] SOTK:
I've had horrible battery life ever since the first Froyo leak. I've tried different Rom's, tried turning off certain things like wifi and rotate, and I've tried different radios and different kernels. I've also done the whole battery reconditioning thing and it hasn't helped either. My apps haven't changed since 2.1 and I was getting upwards of 30 hours on one charge when I was running DJ05. So, I have been trying to achieve that level of battery performance since then but with no luck until now.

I just recently followed Adrynalyn's directions in how to get to ED01 quickly so I could try out the ED01 radio. After having the ED01 radio and then flashing to the latest Evil Fascination Rom, I am pleased to report that I am achieving the battery performance I had with DJ05. Oh, I forgot to mention that I'm running the latest OTB TW Kernel by Nemesis2all and I'm not undervolting. I'm running at 1000 mhz stock. :)
[Fascinate General] Relaxasaurus:
awesome! just what i wanted to hear. I'll be flashing this tonight
[Fascinate General] Relaxasaurus:
Went through the fairly long process of getting the ED01 radio on my phone. Unfortunately I see no difference.

After 7 hours of being unplugged and with very light use I'm at 45% battery, similar to every other Froyo build I've encountered.

I have Beautiful Widgets and set the refresh to every 3 hours, but I'll try disabling it just to see if there's a difference. After that I'll get into some undervolting, then maybe the Evil fascination ROM.

Is there a way to monitor network traffic?
[Fascinate General] ace5198:
i dunno how everyone is having bad battery life.. ive been at work for 9 hours.. texting all day, n pissing around with voltage control.. and i talked to a drs office for 36 mins.. and im at 75% my brigtness is set to max... and i have full 3g service.google location is on, gps n auto rotate on all day.... ive rebooted my phone twice.. personally.. ide reflash and start over..
[Fascinate General] SOTK:
It might not just be the radio that's resulted in me having great battery performance. It could be the combination of Rom and/or kernel plus the ED01 Radio. I'm not sure. All I know is that after I went to the Ed01 radio and flashed Evil Fascination (latest) Rom plus Nemesis2all kernel, I am achieving outstanding battery performance.

I am only syncing once daily with SNS Facebook and Twitter. I have Weatherbug and widget syncing about every 30 minutes. Tweetcaster is syncing about every 15 minutes. Tapatalk and Foursquare are syncing about every 15-30 minutes I think. That's about it for me. I don't have too many programs syncing.

I would try flashing Flashing the Rom and Kernel I mentioned and see what happens.
[Fascinate General] okubricko:
I will try all these suggestions since my battery life with the community rom isn't the best
[Fascinate General] artvandelay440:
Have you tried using Droid Wall to disable all mobile data except what you need? (mms, Google voice, etc.)
[Fascinate General] gkirby11:
The fact that JD is improving your battery life signifies that its not the ROM that is at fault nor the kernel.

There is an application hogging something. It would be interesting to see if people have one application in common causing it.
[Fascinate General] AuroEdge:
I have reverted to a virgin adryn ROM. I'm running as little possible and have only installed Juice Plotter. Not enough data yet but seems that battery has improved by a margin. Speculation towards previous bad life behavior (?):

1.) Contact Sync (TouchWiz Facebook & Exchange)

2.) BLN service (the polling, not the actual 'lights on')

3.) Launcher Pro (running in the background)
[Fascinate General] KitsuneKnight:
Just an FYI, I found that running Juice Plotter was the biggest battery hog on my system when I had it running (it regularly wakes up Android to log that data!).

If you merely have BLN enabled in the kernel (and none of the blinking options or anything else enabled), it should use very little power. If you have blinking or anything else, that will have an appreciable impact on battery life (the cost to wake up Android is worse than the cost to just leave the light on!).

Have you checked in the Battery Use page to see what Android thinks is the cause?
[Fascinate General] AuroEdge:
Spare Parts showed Android System. Quite descriptive. If something woke up the system a lot but ran for a very short amount of time, it would NOT be shown as a huge cost on Battery Use page correct?

As far as Juice Plotter goes I'm using it to guage my new performance. On standby I seem to dropping at a consistent 2%/hr. I will definitely need to go through a few cycles to be certain.
[Fascinate General] Relaxasaurus:
Update: I turned off Standalone GPS services and Google location services in Settings > Location & Security.

After 7 hours of the same type of use (no web browsing, no games, no maps, only browsing Google Reader and texting) I am seeing 70% battery life.

I work in a skyscraper surrounded by steel and cement and barely get a bar during work, so the radio is being powered up more than normal, just didn't know the location services would zap 25% more power during the same 7 hours of virtual non-use.

This is definitely the fault of some software that needs tweaking. Imo, Android shouldn't be using location services at all when no apps are calling for it, and definitely not during idle.

Thanks for the help all.
[Fascinate General] pleasebugmenot:
Just thought I'd mention wifi settings here. I'm on ED01 and the update immediately made my idle battery life HORRIFIC. I would regularly lose almost exactly 1% of battery life per hour before the update and then after it, it was always nearly 10%. I eventually tracked it down to wifi continually attempting to connect and found that the default wifi state was somehow set to always on. Change your wifi to automatically turn off when the screen is off in the advanced menu. After wracking my brain forever on this it has fixed the problem and now I have even better battery life than before the OTA update.
[Fascinate General] quarky42:
I had EC01 and had the absolute best battery life I had ever seen with the Fascinate.

I went to the CommunityROM v1.2 + OTBReloaded Kernel and have the worst battery life I have seen. The installed apps did not change. I have fewer widgets with CommunityROM v1.2.

In 45 Minutes, I lost 15% battery. On EC01, I would lose about 7% over 8-9 hours.

I'm going to reflash the ROM and Kernel and this time do a complete data wipe, wipe battery stats, and recalibrate.

It is just very odd that I can go from EC01 over to CommROM v1.2 and see such a huge increase in battery drain even though the installed apps didn't change at all.

I use Elixir Widget, and it seems to me that the phone spends a lot more time in higher speed cpu states than it did with EC01. My CPU Idle Time is 0 when before it would have been much higher. "Where's My Droid Power" doesn't really show any culrpit.

"Battery Use" says 95% display, 2% phone idle, 2% cell standby, 1% voice calls. At this time I have been unplugged for almost 3 hours. It has been in airplane mode for an hour and a half. I am at 75% battery.

Something doesn't jive here.
