it works with most if not all but sshdroid! not a few!

IT DOES NOT MATTER! IT WIL REFUSE TO WORK AS LONG AS IT DID NOT GOT HIS ADS FROM THE SERVER TO SHOW!

it does not matter if you can distinct between connection failor or blocked packets!

and EXACTLY THIS IS what i told you know three times! THIS IS AS RELIABLE AS THE ADBLOCKER HOST mehtod because it can be easaly be brought to fail if an app refuses to work WHENEVER IT DOES NOT GET CONNECTED TO ITS ADD SERVER!

THAT'S what sshdroid does!

what you do not seem to understand is that YOU ARE IN THE WRONG THREAD! the adblocker app is NOT DEVELOPED or in any matter a ROM SPECIFIC THING!

if you wan'T to improve the addblocker go to the developers thread of that APP!

if you want iptables based blocking then go on. you already have iptables in the rom. but you will not be able to block sshdroids adds and still make it to work proper with iptables or anything else!

and as long as sshdroid seems to be the ONLY app which adds can't be blocked by adblocker i don't see a point of dicussing this further, ESPECIALLY AS THIS IS THE WRONG THREAD!

p.s. check out droidwall.

Anyone experiencing problems with the Opera Browser? Loading pages takes ages since some earlier build, but I don't know which one... Maxthon for example is working fine.

ROM Ver. 3.2.1 / Kernel 3.2.0 installed
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
no, you misunderstood me. i do not mean that you use the service that allows others to see where you are! i mean this:

settings -> location -> use wireless / gps

and also:

settings -> location -> telefonfinder

make sure all these three settings are off.

and also freez the htc navigation software locations, and all that apps with "laptua" or similar in their name. even though you didn't registered or used them, they seem to be quite active regarding discovering your actuall location.

@a user

You still don;t get it and you still shout on me.

1. Again - I've stopped talking about SSHDroid after first post. No need to spam this thread about it (and guess who's doing it)

2. Blocking ads topic IS RIGHT here or I'm imagining things about first post in this thread (containing adblocking as a feature of this mod).

3. You still cannot imagine that there CAN be apps that will CHECK hosts file and WONT check iptables coz its much harder.

4. You still do not read a footnote (my edit mark) which says its better problably in MANY ways. Hosts file is a last resort scissor blade when you are drowning.

And I do not want to discuss this with you further coz you are rude.

About PS. - yes, that's a kind of what I'm suggesting. A firewall wihich will PASS ads for few aps defined. But it's impossible to define rules for droidwall to habdle ads (or it's easier to do it by commandline iptables, and I'm talking about a tool for general usage, not for linux freaks)
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
NO it is NOT!

what first post mentions is that it has THIS PARTICULAR ADDBLOCKER, simply based on hosts onboard. that's all!

there was never any work done regarding addblocking for thsi rom besid adding THIS APP!

sure i can. and i never denied it. but still i never ehared of any. so why care for something that till now never was an issue!?!

i did. but i do not care because it is a solution to a up till now non-existent problem.

thanks!

This, I think, is what my phone is also doing (I posted a page back about it). I can see via current widget that mA spikes and consistent and large.

Turn your phone on to airplane mode for an hour or so and see what happens then. It helps to give Lee and others as much info as you can.
[Desire HD Android Development] tmh:
Can't do that right now, as I'm expecting a few calls, but I'll try that later on. Did your spikes go away by putting it into airplane mode? (Must have missed your post).
[Desire HD Android Development] krzych:
@a user

First post citated:

Simpy: this rom CANNOT be ad free if u use SSHDroid. That's a fact. (as many other roms too, but it is a place to discuss it since it was mentioned as a feature and I cannot use it).

And there is nothing about any app (so I was even more disapointed seeing that its an app, standard one from market which does it, not a rom feature).

So its bad in two ways.

And yes - not caring is the problem here, so why do you replied my post in the first place? Just ignore me.
[Desire HD Android Development] mathewr:
Yes, in Airplane mode all the spiking disappeared completely.

I checked connections in OS Monitor and saw Google Calendar and Google+ active, so tried disabling notifications from Google+, both in the app and in the accounts and sync options, plus clearing cache from calendar and calendar storage in applications. Will report back, but still seems weird if something like that is causing it, as it doesn't happen on wifi.
[Desire HD Android Development] Homerr:
check your email/sense syncing settings...
[Desire HD Android Development] mathewr:
Yep, I always turn all of sense off and set email to manual. That is not it unfortunately.
[Desire HD Android Development] tmh:
Just as expected, that didn't do a damn thing. Goddamnit, I hate this. Why oh why did I have to mess with something that was working just perfect?! :( I'll try deleting the APN and re-adding it now, but again, why should that all of a sudden be acting up, when I haven't edited it?

Edit: Yup, didn't change a thing. Could a full wipe help? Just can't be bothered if I'm stuck with the same crap afterwards...

Video missing date in metadata

Hi,

I've noticed that after flashing LeeDrOiD (v3.0.3), the video files that I record with the default camera are missing important metadata, like the "Encoded date".

Anyone know why this happened? Can I enable the "Encoded date" again?

i cared to explain you that sshdroid is known to be like it is and that there is nothing that can be done to solve this beside of buying it.

i also explained you that so far it is the only app that prevents you being addfree with the current method. hence your suggestion would be maybe a nice idea, but a not needed work!

though i gave you a similar possiblity with droidwall (although not very sophisticated).

i also tried to help you with your second issue.

what has droven me nuts is that you insisted claiming that i do not understand what you want, althuogh i already explained you three times that i do but it has no purpose cause the only app that cannot be made addfree with addblocker will not be addfree with your method.

at least until know i never heared of any other app where your suggested method would yield an solution for makeing it addfree while addblocker does not.

Killing 3G killed the 5 minute spikes, so far so good. But how the hell do I get rid of them on 3G then? :P

i think this one is for me more interesting than sensation and all the other ones:

http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/07/18/sprint-to-launch-htc-kingdom-as-htc-hero-4g/

what makes it so interesting for me is the portable mediaplayer thing, with hdmi connecting (i hope so :D ).
[Desire HD Android Development] tmh:
Yeah already tried that, also tried killing weather auto-update. But again, none of this causes drain on wifi, so why would it on 3G? That's what I don't get. It's like something is polling constantly, but only when I'm on 3G. To my knowledge, I have no apps set to only sync/update via 3G.

To sum it up, I've:

Killed 3G - that kills the spikes.

Switch to wifi - that kills the spikes.

Switch to 3G - spikes every 5 minutes, about 175 mA.

Deleted and re-added APN - no difference at all.

While on 3G, I've tried:

Disabling Google+ and uninstalling it.

Clearing all the calendar data/cache settings I could find.

Disabling weather auto-update.

I've done so, after checking network settings in OS Monitor and those were the ones that were constantly running. None of it helped.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
killing the autoupdate process will not work as it restarts usually itself.

just guessing but the reason for higher spikes on 3g could be beacuse 3g traffic actually consumes more (being slower or why ever). so maybe you have these spikes also in wlan, but beacuse it drains less battery and also do not last so long (wlan is faster) currentwidget misses them often and also shows them with lower values.

my last idea is to use droidwall and check by blocking apps and other stuff from accessing inet which one is causing this.

EDIT: with the help of droidwall i identified some rogue apps in the past ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] mathewr:
Thanks for the driodwall idea I will check it out. I am having exactly the same issues as tmh
[Desire HD Android Development] tmh:
While droidwall does seem like a logical step, I still can't see why it should be necessary, as I didn't install any apps the last few days. Also checked comments on updated apps and no reports of any causing excessive drain.

Only thing I did, was installing the Sense 3 pack, but even after restoring the stock backup and then flashing 3.2.1 on top of that, I still had those crazy spikes. It's so damn weird.
[Desire HD Android Development] mathewr:
I do not have Sense pack 3 installed.

I have a standard latest Leedriod with the correct recommended Radio and little to nothing else. All installed after a full wipe using the recommended script.

edit: just to add - all of the sense update stuff like weather and stocks are disabled and everything else is severely restricted, if not manual.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
you have better chances to understand what's going on if you narrowed down which app is actually causing the trouble.
[Desire HD Android Development] tmh:
You're right, I just can't see how not installing anything new, all of sudden causes insane drain? Before this crap started, I had the "normal" drain of about 1-1.5 hours per % in standby.

But yeah, I might look at it. Or I might just do a full wipe and find something else to do, 'cause this is seriously pissing me off.
[Desire HD Android Development] mathewr:
I don't want to be a buzz kill, but a full wipe didn't help me :)
[Desire HD Android Development] tmh:
At least you saved me some time there, thanks mate :) I wonder if something like a "chunky" data connection (problems connecting to my carrier/server trouble on their end/etc.) could cause something like this though. It kinda seems like it's something "on the outside" messing it up.
[Desire HD Android Development] mathewr:
Are you in Denmark, or Sweden? I am in the Nederlands on T-Mobile.

I am also having a battery drain issue since i installed v3.3.1.

To install i backed up and then formatted the sd-card. I don't use sense and therefore installed the ROM then installed no sense ++. i am using GO Launcher EX with the other GO apps.

Any ideas??

Help needed

I lost my contacts pictures, and i did this

" Type in terminal:

chmod 666 -R /data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/* "

now I get error : The process android.process.acore stopped unexpectedly.

What to do now?
[Desire HD Android Development] andreasy:
if you have your contacts stored elsewhere, like outlook, backup, delete them all from your phone by clearing contacts storage from titanium or from remove apps, and let them sync back.
[Desire HD Android Development] makbil:
I have the same spikes and I rarely even use wi-fi. I also remember them on 3.2.1 so probably related to GB. maybe in combination with Sense 3.

EDIT : Its a bug with Arabic patch, but i'll keep this post just in case some1 else asking about the problem :)

Greeting Lee

I have a BUG :o

Was running 3.0.3 and now installed 3.3.1 ( to get better Wi-Fi) i made it without doing any wipe , first boot was fine then i went to recoevery and installed Arabic Support v6.

In the next boot, the system keep restarting after a few seconds of displaying the OS background. in a loop

I also made full wipe, reinstalled 3.3.1 / first boot/ then later install arabic v6 and have same problem.

I'll test the rom without the Arabic support for a couple of hours and report.

Thanks for your hard work bro.

[Desire HD Android Development] winwintoto1234:
Lol, sorry for misunderstanding...:p

Ok, my battery drainage is when my data connection is constantly on.

So, if your suggestion actually works, which I doubt, the battery drain should persist even if data is off because they should be trying to do their job in background regardless of whether the data is on. Anyway, I'll give it a try...

My problem is, if I let my data on, the battery drains, 40-60mA with spikes at about 160-200 mA (screen off, no user activity). If I use juice defender to set the data on every 15 minutes, then the drainage would be 4-5 mA, of course with some "spikes" every now and then.

I only noticed this when I was thinking to make full use of viber, whatsapp etc by disabling JD.

Flashed cfs kernel 3.2.0. doesn't help. Guess I have to continue using JD for the time being.

Thanks for your advice, appreciate it.:)

edit: what is this "laptua" thing? I can't find any in titanium backup...
[Desire HD Android Development] Daz555:
Indeed he was. Great bit of work too. Running nicely on my wife's Desire - very early release but fairly solid already. :)
[Desire HD Android Development] Hunt3r.j2:
Laputa is an HTC application, also known as Locations.

Whatsapp doesn't have push, and so it will drain your battery heavily. I suggest using eBuddy or Trillian for instant messaging. Only IM apps with C2DM should be used without juice defender.

Any applications that have partial wakelocks will seriously hurt your battery life.

On a separate note, I've done a full wipe of my phone again, currently just running Sense 2.1 to see if Sense 3.0 causes battery drain issues.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
actually you are wrong. transfering data over 3g actually consumes far more than only attempting a connection. additionally if 3g is off any attempt to connect failes immediatly which does not consume much, afterwards it will wait some time and repeat at worst periodically to connect. but this is just a litle cpu work, without the big battery draining network load.

but many apps just detect a missing inet connection and just stop trying to connect.
[Desire HD Android Development] Tatou26:
Whatsapp does have push C2DM ;)

[Desire HD Android Development] LeeDroid:
Probably a power related feature, immense drain if you combine all of the required resources.. screen, flashlight, WiFi, data, CPU, RAM etc...would probably cause a freeze or reboot ;)

Ok if I flashed the full wipe to ext4 patch twice,will that cause any problem? And let's say that I'm coming from a different rom and I used that patch even though the dev never mentioned it.should I use full wipe 1.3 then or full wipe to ext4? or maybe just ext4 cache and dalvik cleaner? I want to make sure that I'll have a clean install.
[Desire HD Android Development] supRshine:
use lee's ext4 cleaner from 1st post.

Use the Full Wipe script on OP. That should do the job then run ext4 cache cleaner over it when the full wipe is done.

wifi trouble? which version rom are you running?
[Desire HD Android Development] Tiho:
Thanks. That helped
[Desire HD Android Development] Hunt3r.j2:
I'm on 3.3.1, w/ 3.2 BFS kernel. In CurrentWidget I get around <-10 mA power consumption without WiFi, and with WiFi on it seems to hover at 60-70 mA, which to me smacks of WiFi somehow making it so that the phone is unable to go into deep sleep.

My results were reached by having WiFi on, with "best performance" enabled and never sleeping.

Is "best performance" the cause?
[Desire HD Android Development] CyberTod:
Best performance on wi-fi drains a lot, so yes I guess your drain comes from there.

[Desire HD Android Development] torsrex:
Sensation or EVO 3D ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] andreasy:

btw, you shouldn't try to switch on the phone. you could try removing battery and drying well. there could be a small possibility that it could revive but anyway, now it's too late.
[Desire HD Android Development] mathewr:
I took it out straight as I realized (20 mins into a nice 30 degree clean cycle), and pulled it apart, then burred all the pieces in dry rice over night.

It's now 8 hours later and it will not turn on, and it seems "dry".

I think it is a paper weight now, but if anyone has any ideas I am open to suggestions :)
[Desire HD Android Development] EmptyArea:
If youve no insurance and you left the phone for a few days and its still unresponsive then...

Follow a video guide and do a full dismantle.

*** there's a warranty sticker in the battery compartment, you should be able to remove it undamaged with a heatgun ( a hairdryer could be better/worse) ***

Carefully dismantle the whole thing, every piece, and dry them all individually. Then rebuild.

If it's still broken then return under warranty if you've still got one. At the worst they say it's water damaged and you argue that shouldn't happen in your pocket on a rainy day...
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
i would wait for the htc kingdom!

[Desire HD Android Development] mossywell:
Samsung galaxy s2. It's a better phone than the desire HD. I only stick with the desire HD because the quality of the s2 ROMs is still leagues behind Lee's. (The s2 ROMs are a bit of deodexing and zip aligning and maybe some updated apps. They don't seem to have the attention to detail and pedantry that Lee has! And they aren't quite as approachable as here. Asking for advice over there is a bit like mad Murdoch asking BA Baracus for advice!)
