thanks bro.. heads up.. going to the sgs2 one way or another.. they r collecting donations for me right now to get me over there.. funds r tight cant afford another new device right now.. so thats my next move
[myTouch 4G General] invasion2:
NOOOOO!!!! I <3 your ROMs though!! Will you still develop for the MT4G?
[myTouch 4G General] Elloco305:
Awesome. I have been wanting that device for a minute now. So this is freaking great news.

For the last few months, my GPS hasn't been working. It just tells me that its searching for GPS for forever. I have downloaded GPS assistance a well as flashed the newest radio but its still the same. Anyone else getting the same issues?

I tried searching but it seams switching to the newest radio worked for others here. It hasn't worked for me :(
[myTouch 4G General] Elloco305:
My GPS is working great. Maybe the chip went bad. If GPS assistant can't help? Idk
[myTouch 4G General] pnut22r:
That's awesome tdj. I wish you the best when you make your move. And thank you for everything you've done.

The sgs2 is awesome. Just hard to imagine my phone without even the possibility of Sense. Not that I have to have it, just like it in reserve.

Good luck bro

It's gonna be a sad sad day when you make the move... definitely gonna try to get myself a sgs2 now!

Just revered back to stock radio. Still nothing. I hope your wrong but it doesn't look good for my phone. I guys its time to but a new one ..
[myTouch 4G General] Orical:
I just put my Christmas bonus in the SGS2 fund, well part of it anyways.

I had the chance to go that route about two months ago but I couldn't walk away from the phone I have, I'll have to put in the call to T-Mobile and get that upgrade after all.

On another note, I noticed since the latest update of Google Maps the Maps app has been restarting it's self when I've force closed it and had to clear data and shut off compatibility mode for it to stop which has contributed to some battery drain, IF others have noticed that it seems to be draining a bit more than usual that's the reason why. I caught it in battery stats.

Does anyone have this issue with the stock message app I came from a clean install from 1.12.9 and she is texting me from the same number I never had this issue ever
[myTouch 4G General] thederekjay:
Has been reported and has happened to me as well.. I have no explanation to why this is happening, this on threw me for a loop.. you can try deleting all the threads and see if it corrects itself.. but right niw iI don't have a fix
[myTouch 4G General] jigajay:
Ok thanks I never had this issue with previous versions of this rom. The weird thing is that It's only happening with that 1 person well so far I think it splits it up when I respond to the pop up message part.
[myTouch 4G General] deaconv:
I get teh same issue on various other roms i have used such as royalginger, and Absolution but dont know why...i only use darkside kernels so idk if it maybe could be something there or not but it also happens to only one contact i have too lol...usually if i send them a picture or they send me one it will make a new message....it's weird but small price to pay for awesome battery life and lightening fast roms in my book y aknow...about to swap to this rom will be my first miui rom so im kinda excited....
[myTouch 4G General] Orical:
Yup you have her on Facebook and as a contact, it will create two separate contacts for the same person because the contact names are different.

This happens when she's connected on her Google account and texting from her computer, because she's connected with both names it sends from both. I had this happen and tested it to see if it was true and it did it from a friends account.
[myTouch 4G General] jigajay:
The thing is I don't have the Facebook app on my phone and I'm not using the Facebook sync neither I did just notice I didn't have the number saved as mobile number maybe that can be it.
[myTouch 4G General] Orical:
If it's saved on Google it's going to send from both, G-Mail accounts hold accounts by number and name, if it was backed up at any time that way it will happen, It's something you can look at by logging in to your Gmail account and checking your contacts section, if both are there one as facebook and the other name as a standard contact it will send from both names.

You notice the names and pics are different but both are the same person (Number is the same.), it's synced through Google.

In facebook you can choose to allow friends to have your cell number, it creates the account by email name when listed, Google doesn't notice the number is the same. If she restricts that feature it will not happen again but that means no one will be able to have her cell. It's something that they over looked.

ALSO this might not be on your account, she may have both accounts linked and if she's logged in and sending from her computer it will send from both names. two different people from the same number as Google see's it.

Lol thanks for the advise
[myTouch 4G General] desikilla:
so I've been running this ROM for Weeks. And have installed it at least 3 times and I'm still having horrible battery life. I've done battery calibration many times.

My phone seems too die within 4 hours with very minimal use and within 2 hours with being on the phone for like 15 minutes, maybe 20 texts, and 10 min on the web. And the screen is off majority off the time.

When I flashed this ROM the last time, I didn't restore anything. I started out fresh and still the same issues.

Today really baffled me when my phone was at 77% and wifi on, I started playing a game. I was playing for no more than 10 min and it shut off. I started it back up and the battery was at 1% and then it shut back down. I plugged it into the charger and turned it back on, and the battery was showing 61%.

And what's worse is that when my phone is below 10% and I charge it, it takes like 8 hours get a full charge!

Can somebody please help me? :/
[myTouch 4G General] mark manning:
It takes a lil while work your battery to go back to normal after being calibrated. To be honest tho, it sounds like you may need a new battery.

Did you flash a new radio recently or anything like that?

[myTouch 4G General] desikilla:
No I didn't flash any radio. And I've waited days after calibrating and calibrated a few times. I was thinking it may be a battery issue too. I guess I just wanted more insight/opinions. It was just weird how it died and then started at 61% when I plugged in the charger.

[myTouch 4G General] thederekjay:
Do you experience this with other roms or just miui? How old is your battery?
[myTouch 4G General] sunlaw2:
When I get flash happy,and bounce from ROM to ROM,then my battery does the same.

I never wipe battery stats in recovery anymore,because that makes it wackier.

I suggest checking on installed apps.

I think your games are the culprits.

on miui with demonspeed you should see the best battery life.

When I stock with a tdj ROM,my battery charges mad quickly.

[myTouch 4G General] Orical:
I don't know if anyone caught what I said back a page or two but Maps has updated twice in the past two releases, since then I've noticed that Maps has been self starting after it's force closed this will drain battery like there's no tomorrow.

I have a feeling they changed how it allocates locations on the device for real time connections and searches, I tried to look for what they actually did change aside from the usual bug fixes but all I found was connection updates and location updates.

In any case the App has been restarting and staying on, so to prevent it from doing so go to Programs and force stop it and clear data. If it still comes back on shut off compatibility mode and that should do the trick but this will be changed when you restart the App manually so you'll have to go back in and do it again after your done using it.

The other thing you can do is not update and find an earlier version but then you'll miss out on the upgrades that are important.

This kid just loves to start trouble and who are you calling boy? I could be your father, you need to do some homework before trying to judge people.

Everyone is having the same problem, they might not know it's maps doing it. Ever since I stopped it my battery life has doubled. It's as simple as looking at what's running.

Thanks TDJ.
[myTouch 4G General] sunlaw2:
I doubt that stopping 1 process such as maps will double your battery life.lol.

I'm sure the default governor tdj has installed via kernel has something to do wit it.serioyslyPrimal gives decent tips, just stop being condascending.

This is the best port out on mytouch.

Give the credit for battery to the Dev,not to some simple task.
[myTouch 4G General] Elloco305:
Actually, I'm with orical on this one. 1 simple process / app can destroy battery life.

Yes demonspeed Kernel is awesome. I the best even. But with a rouge app it won't stand a chance.
[myTouch 4G General] sunlaw2:
1 app being maps?

Then why is my battery life still the same.plus this week I added a bunch of games,and weather apps.no task killing,or stop process going on.

Maps is not the problem.
[myTouch 4G General] Elloco305:
Let's just agree to disagree then. This way, this can't escalate any further
[myTouch 4G General] blklexluthor:
Just my 2 cents.... How many screens do you have running? How many widgets? Do you have data on all day? Are you using a different launcher? How often are your apps auto syncing? I never experienced that bad battery life on any ROM. Since I switched to miui I've been experiencing the best battery life...well ever! Lol I uninstalled go launcher (started using miui launcher....apple was definitely onto something), I installed autostarts (stopped a lot of unnecessary apps from auto starting), turned off auto and background sync (I just do it manually when needed), uninstalled apps I don't ever use, and now I get 14-18 hours of use. Before I was getting 7-9 hours. Btw, I'm still using my original battery.

Also, I'm using the stable version, thanks TDJ for an awesome ROM
[myTouch 4G General] mark manning:
Orical is kinda right, a rouge app can destroy the battery. However, do you think Google would let that happen with maps? Prob not, and if they did it would be fixed almost immediately. What orical didn't understand was after the phone supposedly died and was plugged into the charger it suddenly said 61%. No rouge app can do that.

[myTouch 4G General] jayb222:
I was having a hell of a time with battery on this build. I stopped maps the way he said and my battery got extremely better since. Just saying.
[myTouch 4G General] desikilla:
I appreciate it

Regardless, you were still getting 7-9 hours. I don't really have time to tweak my phone so I don't, and I never really have and never had this bad of battery life. I don't use any launcher but stock. I rarely use widgets (if any), it syncs like twice a day. And I know it can't be apps because when I did a clean install once, I didn't restore or download any apps and the phone still had terrible battery life. Again, the phone. I'm not blaming this rom in any way, because as I stated before, I've flashed other roms and had the same problem. I was just seeing what peoples opinions were.

But how do you determine if a rouge app is running?

Oh yeah, FYI, I did drop my phone in the shower about 2 months ago and it got soaked, but still worked (I had to let somebody in through the gate so they could install cable lol). This problem just started happening within the past month so I didn't know for sure if the shower affected the battery, but I'm going to assume it did.
[myTouch 4G General] Orical:
I did the same thing traveling, dropped the phone in some water but it was fine. To actually see what's running go to battery stats in system settings go to battery and hit battery use, you'll see a small graph at the top tap on the graph. Now you should have a scrollable page that shows each app and it's power consumption over a time period. Look through and look for apps that show more blue for that time period that your not using. Mail and synced apps will be scattered blue lines while others show either very little or full use.

Battery issues

So I've confirmed, on MY phone, the launcher, messaging, maps, and even market at times stays steady awake while my phone is sitting idle. The biggest ones are launcher and messaging. But maps is also a major issue. I looked through the battery stats thing as suggested. How do I stop this?!?!

Loving the Miui, I think i might have found a weird bug. I added the power management widget to one of the screens.

I am on miui 1st. Stable now

Edit..

lol well i went and just use the backup settings and wow let me tell you its so cool idk that about miui this is making me want to keep it setting up is not a hassle at all i love it.

wanted to ask about the -wipe flag it is in the new stable and its saying not parsing when flashing not sure why thats happening when i just flash the one from the new stable not sure why its not picking up

anyway loving the stable miui so cool thanks again
