[EVO 4G Android Development] Scudderb:
It is aka 'Fixing Permissions" however MUST be done in recovery...if there is an option to "fix permissions" in another app (e.g., the Clockwork Mod app launched from your phone) and you're NOT in recovery, it won't fix this problem. Amon Ra calls it "Fix uid mismatches"...

Perhaps by "heavy use" he means carrying around that 3500 mAh battery in his pocket for 3 days!! :D:D I see that thing around occasionally and it reminds me of the old VCRs in the 80s where, when you wanted to use the video camera, you had to carry around

THE VCR WITH IT

!! :D:D

BTW, I have a Galilio extended battery 2000 mAh but fits with no special battery case. Running MikG v2.56 with no special kernal. Before MikG with a rooted stock GB ROM I would get probably 14 hours under my "normal" use (won't say "heavy use" in front of you

crazy

GPS/sync/4G/3G/5G/news-weather-30 second update-24 hour guys!! ;);) ) if I was lucky. Now I consistently get 20-22 hours...occasionally more depending upon use and once I even got 34+!!!:

SO MUCH depends upon your location, load with the towers, building you are in, if you have an app misbehaving for a day....or if you've got your 2 lb phone with that 3500 mAh battery!!;):D:D

A friend has an EVO like I do and I wanted to see what his use was vs mine. I told him to shut off his phone, put a fresh battery in and start from "zero" and see what happens with the battery use.

I forgot to get back to him after a few days but reported to him that I had something like 21 hours up time and 9 awake time or whatever it was. He tells me he had like THREE DAYS up time and 20 HOURS awake time. So I ask, how the HELL is that possible and he tell me he charged the phone every night and looked at the battery stats after 3 days.

That'll do it!!

I'm pretty sure I can have FIVE DAYS OR MORE up time on my phone...anyone care to make a bet!!?? :D:D Actually, there is NO WAY I can do that....my battery charging port doesn't work!! :p:p

Yeah, big help...I'm

sure

he came to the forum because he doesn't know how to use Google. How about from now on EVERY question you have, go Google it??

I can understand if some schmuck comes to a thread "Steps to Root Your EVO" and posts "Hey, how do I root my EVO" but come on now...be cool....

If you want information on partitioning, I used this link...scroll down to the "Partioning and Moving Apps to the Card" section:

Regarding the speed of your card, I use an app called "SD Tools":

https://market.android.com/details?id=ales.veluscek.sdtools

Not sure how accurate the thing is but I think it is fairly reliable as to the speed of the card operating

in your phone

. Your card might be rated a certain speed but that rating is likely an upper limit...kinda like your internet service at home might be "up to 20 MBps" but you might only ever get 15 MBps. You can then use your speed result to translate that into a "Class" for your card.

Sorry, but I actually don't have a link to translating speed to Class (though I think, e.g., a "Class 4" has 4MB speeds, "Class 8", 8MB and so on) and I'm not sure on that...so you

will

actually have to Google that for yourself!! :D
