I run touchdown and have it set to push... and rarely see it at more than 2-3% of battery usage. Personally, the more I see in regards to 2.3.3 and battery stats, usage, and charging... I'm becoming less and less confident that anything that's being reported is accurate. If you're not seeing increased battery drain, then I would rely less on what some chart tells you, and go more with what your real life experience is telling you.
[Captivate Android Development] SAHorowitz:
Joe. Thanks for the reply. Point taken. Just trying to squeeze that 6%/hr to more like 2% or 3%/hr. I am looking forward to spare parts working again (I know it is a spare parts issue) since that is a great indicator of stuff like this. I might write to the touchdown folks and I will pass along any info I get back.

Thanks.

I totally agree with you, was this response to my post just adding to the agreement or were you going after me with your response?
[Captivate Android Development] droncadin:
love the theme, i see the WP7 keyboard is there - however when i select it it just keeps reverting bak to the samsung one each time i go to type?
[Captivate Android Development] FredOak3:
Going to have to play around with this battery thing...charged all night, pulled it off dropped to 94% (which we know about)...read a couple emails, took wife to MD, waiting read a few more emails, got to work total elapsed time 4 1/2 hours, battery reads 51%.

I'm going to have to agree with JoeDV because nothing shows up as a hog when i look at CPU % in the Andriod System app, but something is sucking the life out of this.
[Captivate Android Development] gokartracer5:
The battery life with this ROM so far is pretty great for me. But I did notice a big drain this morning and the Android OS usage was up. Not sure if it's the Maps issue discussed before. Looking at a few other threads on battery drains leads me to the SNS Serivce. When it's in a restarting loop or I kill it I have battery drain. It seems to happen sometimes when I switch from Wifi to Packet Data or the reverse. IT may not be the problem at all but just an observation. After a reboot it was fine.
[Captivate Android Development] bames:
DISREGARD 4th time was a charm

odin keeps hanging at same point can anyone shed light on what i am doing wrong.

The line in bold is where it stops. Never gets past that point. I am currently on Supernova....with speedmod do i need to return to stock first?
[Captivate Android Development] 305Freak:
I have an unconventional method to correcting my battery issues.... This fixed my phone back in froyo and when I did it last night it is far better once again.. My method is this..

Let the battery drain down to 2% or shuts itself off (which folks don't like to do) then power it off.

Plug it into the wall(not PC).

After a few minutes turn phone back on with cable plugged in until fully charged( I just leave it over night).

In the morning all is well once again! No Need to clear stats, dada.

I know this goes against conventional methods but it works ON MY PHONE. Feel free to try t, it can't hurt.
[Captivate Android Development] sirknattar:
Most of those issues get resolved if you just return to JF6 stock. I had that too (even when I was stock) and i just pulled the battery and re-did it (obviously at your own risk).
[Captivate Android Development] zelendel:
Ok guys Well I guess it isnt plain enough so lets see if I can make it transparent for all. Only flash the 2.3.3 update from STOCK. Not Supernova, Fusion, Phoenix or FireFly. Stock. Stock stock. Ok think we got it now:D
[Captivate Android Development] stangman:
So that was Stock, right? :)
[Captivate Android Development] FredOak3:
Ahhh which stock? (JOKING!!!)
[Captivate Android Development] silvertag:
What abouth Broth ? Can i use this instead of Stock ? :P
[Captivate Android Development] bames:
EDIT: Worked like a charm the 2nd time round

last time no luck. Reflashed stock GB and going to try again.
[Captivate Android Development] FredOak3:
Rats, 8 hours and battery is down to 30%...going back to FireFly for the week-end as I'll be away from a charger for more than 12 hours and will see what the team has in store for Monday and come back.

And I get my flash fix for the day again ;)
[Captivate Android Development] RN_ReFlux:
I personally prefer broth to stock...

Sent from my super phone!
[Captivate Android Development] gangpe:
Hey Fred,

What Kernel are you using? I've been playing around with kernels for the past few days, borked the phone in the process a few times, lost a little bit of my soul all the while. I've come to the conclusion that I love Talon with ext4, but that's a love that's costly - battery life didn't last 12 hours much less the 24 I've come to expect. Before you put Mosaic on the shelf for the weekend, if you've got your phone converted to ext4, try switching to rfs and see if that helps. YMMV, but I've been back to 24 hours on a charge with heavy video use (commuting on the train will do that though ;-))
[Captivate Android Development] FredOak3:
I tried talon both with and without ext4 and didn't like it, went back to xcal on rfs, with the new 1.6 and it was better performance but like you said not the 24 hours I need.

So I got firefly running now, but I'll be back Monday, for more playtime and will be reading and keeping up all week-end
[Captivate Android Development] qwertyaas:
Quadrant... Reminds me of people running 3dmark and superpi all day instead of actually using that pc they just built.
[Captivate Android Development] krips2003:
Quite true. Not only that people will even say that encoded HD video in 180s with OC compared to non OC which used to take 192s.
[Captivate Android Development] Boobie Watcher:
i see a lot of people complaining about battery life, im running talon's kernal with ext4 and spb shell3d as my launcher and my battery lasts all day long with moderate use, listening to music and videos at work and a little web.....by the end of the night im usually on about 30% before i go to bed at like 2am
[Captivate Android Development] markdexter:
couldn't give 2 flying f**ks about quadrant scores, along as the ROM is smooth and good looking thats all that matters, why is everything about speed, its a phone after all, your not going to be launching a f**cking shuttle with it!! this is the best ROM available for our phones right now, easy.
[Captivate Android Development] meadhros:
Might I ask what your memory is running in spd and whether your running the flicker widget?

how bout them beastie boys!

[Captivate Android Development] markdexter:
Is there any theme that I can flash that will give me just the Stock Gingerbread look for Mosaic 2?? (the green icons in the task bar)
[Captivate Android Development] gangpe:
Wha?! I had to run from spd because it was killing my battery, and you've got it running all day? Something's not right with my phone. That or I need to consider uninstalling some apps... Who am I kidding; I'll deal with the battery being what it is and go back to hating on those with great battery life. Guess it could be worse; I could still be on 2.1 with the 12 hours of battery I was getting.....

This beggar IS a chooser!

I'm getting some random slowdowns and Messaging app closing when I try to open Messaging App. It doesn't force close or anything, just closes again. Might try another Gingerbread ROM or go back to FireFly like I wanted to yesterday.
[Captivate Android Development] meadhros:
Doesnt work. App will not work with our processor. Something to do with DRM and the hummingbird. Smarter person than me might be able to explain

edit: OK, works wonderfully now. I had given up on this just last month. Thanks

[Captivate Android Development] krips2003:
It's already working on MOSAIC II. The app is available in 'app and theme' section of Captivate.

Here are few screen shots. (The video screen shot came blank, but the video was playing without any issue).
[Captivate Android Development] meadhros:
OK. Having trouble seeing my typing as my foot is in my mouth. I've been trying Netflix off and on for a while now. Just deleted the apk just before going gingerbread. A couple of thanks going up.

And one click on dumbazz for me.
[Captivate Android Development] Mauijpm:
Worked for me and I watched a TV episode. Once it was done though, my screen went black and I had to do a battery pull and reboot my phone.
[Captivate Android Development] krips2003:
I don't think it's the netflix app. May be something related to Gingerbread. I have that screen going black when playing NFS Shift, and it'll just hung. Have to pull the battery.
[Captivate Android Development] Barbarian:
Netflix...yes! :cool:

Are you getting it on any other apps?
[Captivate Android Development] krips2003:
I already mentioned that I get that on Need for Speed Shift.:(
[Captivate Android Development] Mauijpm:
Sorry - Not trying to waste your time. I should have been more clear. I meant in addition to NFS. I am getting it on messaging at times, along with MOG and EBay.

Long delay on SMS notification tones

And I mean long.

This has happened on M1 & M2

I just replied to a msg I say pop up on the screen

and it was sent. I had almost put the phone back down when the phone got around to playing the tone telling me it had arrived

that means about 7-10 sec after the text shows up is when the sound plays

is this GB, Mosaic, or Me?

fyi

I use Handcent and have the stock messaging app frozen
[Captivate Android Development] gokartracer5:
+1 for Netflix. Works fine for me. The first time i started it up I got an error, but after that pretty sweet. :D

Can't get the new Google Music app to work though. :(
[Captivate Android Development] Mauijpm:
I am using Go SMS and am having the same issue. I frequently don't get the pop up on the screen in addition to the late notification noise. Not sure if it is GB or Mosaic.
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
ive had this issue on a couple roms over the months ... i had it on M1, tried, cleraing all handcent data, wiping caches, even reflashing it still happened. didnt happen to me with M2, at all, sorry i couldnt help just informing you that it isnt an isolated issue, it might just be an issue handcent has sometimes, since its happened to me on multible roms...although i didnt try another modem ... jk4 has always worked hmmm give that a shot?
[Captivate Android Development] meadhros:
It is a handcent thing. I get a delay sometimes with handcent. If I reply quick enough on the pop up I'll even receive a second copy of the message. Only happens about once a week. Done it on froyo and gb for me. On stock and early versions, back in the day, handcent used to send all my messages again if my phone rebooted. That was fun. My wife thought I had lost my mind.:eek:
[Captivate Android Development] duuhdave:
I have a quick question. Tried searching around but just wanted to clarify before starting the process. I'm currently running Continuum 5.4.1 so I have the GB bootloaders already. I also have removed my ext4 using the included app as posted in OP. I downloaded Mosaic II and placed on root of internal sd. I want to boot into recovery. Perform factory reset. Wipe cache and all that good stuff. And flash Mosaic right in CWM. Is my method correct? Thanks in advance.
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
you will have to odin flash an earlier version of talon kernel, continuum is jvh and has a and also a kernel with cwm3 those dont overwrite in cwm so you will have to use odin. after you do that though the phone will bootloop if you were to boot normally. so after kernel flash is complete take out the battery and enter recovery, and from there your steps are correct.

actually you could odin the kernel before or after you flash mosaic as long as its a jvb kernel when you try and boot it

sorry that sounds kinda complicated mosaic III will be jvh based so this is only a temporary issue
[Captivate Android Development] duuhdave:
Thank You for the quick reply! I hit the thanks button :)
[Captivate Android Development] torred:
with GO SMS when you go into the message it just kicks you right out sometimes

There are some gremlins here :)
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
sorry i edited re read please!! i forgot about continuum being jvh based
[Captivate Android Development] duuhdave:
EDIT: Whoops. Nevermind. I was able to go into download mode. Flash the kernel and I've booted up just fine. Thanks for the help
[Captivate Android Development] tuannguyen2992:
Trouble

something is going on. Can't wipe data, the button is completely in captivate. The search button is up , back button is down, home button is back, in the recovery mode, can't find the way to press enter, omg help help help:(:(:(:(:(:(:(
[Captivate Android Development] aalh:
I never had this happen till I went to GB

I never used stock GB as anything but a step on the way to Mosaic so I cant say it happened there

does anyone NOT use Handcent and experience the delay?
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
that happens to me somtimes and i have no idea why ... pull the battery reboot back into recovery you should be ok

Need to go back to Froyo

I need to go back to Stock AT&T Froyo. I may need to send wife's phone in. It keeps locking up and restarting. Running M2 Talon .1.4 kernel. I'm flashing t back to stock GB and starting over. If this doesn't work I'll need to go back to stock 2.2 before I send it in. Can I flash 2.2 thru odin?

how to convert FileSystem to ext4

Have been running phoenix unleased for a while with my filesystem converted to ext4. I install GB from scratch and now using Mosaic 2. How do I convert my filesystem to ext4?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] OpusxXx:
Im trying to copy and paste a recovery file in a zip file "3e_recovery_no_sig_check1" from another post which is supposed to allow unsigned zip files to be flashed in 2.2. I extracted the "Recovery File" from the zip and placed it in the Sdcard folder. I downloaded Astro in order to access the extracted Recovery File so I could replace the existing Recovery File located in the System/Bin location.

However, the cut and paste option in Astro is grayed out not allowing me to replace the recovery file. Is there a way to activate the cut and paste (rw)feature? All files in System/Bin are labeled -r-.

Previous Post: "I have noticed some of you are having issues after installing a new kernel or rom, when you boot into recovery you now have 3e, which does not allow unsigned zips to be flashed. With this version of 3e it has no-verification check, now allowing you to flash whatever you want.

This zip has

1) 3e recovery modified to disable signature checking

2) disables the forced wipe after installing any update.
[Epic 4G General] 1NfE5T:
So I was on a odin'ed eb13 and flashed ec05 through clockwork. Ever since my 3g speeds have been crap, honestly don't know if it was faster on eb13 but I top out at 500kbs using the speedtest app from the market. 4g speeds are fine but 3g is slow as all get out, would it be better to odin ec05 stock, then root, the flash frozen/twilight rom/kernel? But should I wait since I know gb is right around the corner? I mean I don't have a computer on me I flash at my friends house. Maybe ill just flash gb once its out. Just tired of slow 3g....
[Epic 4G General] xopher.hunter:
3g speeds for me usually stay around 500kbps from 4-10pm and during the day they can sometimez hit 1.2mbps it varies due to traffic and I have the ec05 modem too
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
I first Odin'd just the EC05 modem and my 3G was crap...worse than EB13. I Odin'd back to DI18 and let it OTA and now my 3G flies. Something doesn't sit right by just flashing the modem.
[Epic 4G General] fallsdownstairs:
good to know. i'll try that, as my 3g has been in the toilet since updating to ec05. i'd actually be happy with 500 during peak hours. mine is sometimes practically non-existent. i've scored 10, 7, and 6 kbps in the speedtest app. i'd rather it just flip me off and display 0 than give me a 6. it recently took 37 minutes to download a 3.57mb app from the market. ri -freaking-diculous!
[Epic 4G General] 1NfE5T:
I dunno though, I heard the ota wasn't all that. So I just flashed a ec05 modem through clockwork, I ended up downloading a pre rooted ec05 tar at work where I get 8mbs down on 4g! I also downloaded the leaky GB :-) so ima play with that for a day for then just flashed the ec05 and see wha happens.
[Epic 4G General] quick99si:
I have a similar problem but only for upload. Any reason why upload speed would be limited to 125-150kbps with both EB13 and EC05 modems?

Or better yet, is there a way to accept the ota update without going back/forth and wiping my data & settings?

Thats what I dont get what to do lol
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moozh1:
With the screen on, press and hold the power button down until the menu pops up that shows flight mode, data network mode, power off, etc pops up. Make sure data network mode is "activated." If not, touch that option and it will turn on data mode. Confirm that it is on by making sure your "3G" icon shows in your notification bar.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pizz0wn3d:
Alternatively, if you're not on a custom rom (can't see signatures on xda app), you can go to settings > wireless and network > mobile networks > and make sure "Use Packet Data" is checked.

[Xperia Arc General] wyterabitt:
I have flashed my three mobile to the latest .184 release, and just before doing this I used flashtools to make a backup. Somewhat stupidly I went ahead and flashed without checking if my backup actually works, I have checked since and it just tells me to unplug and turn on debugging etc (they are both on).

Has anybody got an original three firmware they can upload in case I need it - since doing this I have also noticed problems with wifi tethering so it might need sending back :(
[Xperia Arc General] wyterabitt:
If no one can help (if anyone can it would still be appreciated), can anyone tell me if it will cause me problems getting my phone repaired.

Although I originally flashed the .184 update uploaded here I have since run a SEUS reinstall so technically the firmware is 100% official SE generic firmware. Will this mean it will be fixed as all they will know is that it is their software on.

I had some worrying news when I asked in a carphone warehouse repair center today, the engineer (I have doubts they actually hire engineers) told me if he finds I have changed the software he is required to inform SE themselves the phone details and have the warranty voided. This was after actually telling him that I had changed it though, and he might have been thinking custom - I also didn't explain the SEUS update that means it is completely official.

Anyone any advice? I definitely have a hardware problem that needs fixing so I am desperate now.
[Xperia Arc General] d4rkwind:
from what I remember the only difference was the bootscreen and the three app and a couple of games I doubt you will have any major problems. I'm pretty sure the main thing they didn't like with debranded firmware was you could set it to just use the Orange network which cost them more money, but now they are 3G only...

With WIFI tethering try changing the name of the hotspot I couldn't get it to connect at all, changed the name and it worked fine.
[Xperia Arc General] wyterabitt:
Thanks for the suggestion, I just tried renaming but it has the same problem. I can connect for 2 minutes then it stops working and needs turning off and on. It is identicle no matter what I do; after using SEUS or restaring the phone. I am pretty sure it is a hardware problem now (it seems unlikely to be software otherwise more people would have this exact problem). I'm also having problem connecting to wifi while out that I didn't notice untill I started using it more.

Ill give it a couple of days to see if anyone gets hold of the three firmware just in case (I don't want to give them a reason to try and screw me around, I like the plan and unlimited internet but their CS is abysmal sometimes), I will just go for it and send it back if not.
[Xperia Arc General] d4rkwind:
How long have you had the phone? I got mine switched over about a week after I got it because the camera had a problem. I have actually in general had some great customer service from them over the last couple of years they even just refunded me £40 of internet data usage because they did not explain it to me properly (One plan didn't start for a month apparently :/).

Good luck though hopefully they will just swap it over if they have some in stock. Make sure you take everything you got back in order to get an exchange.
