You guys that are running task killers really need to read up on how froyo and later versions of android manage memory. You're just wasting time and resources by using task killers.

If you really want to stop apps from loading at boot, check out the free version of Gemini App Manager. It's a very powerful application config app that can also backup /restore apps & data.
[EVO 4G Android Development] taadow1030:
I repeat again, it is not a task killer. To your other point, I agree concerning Gemini though. It works great. I use both apps, but for different functions.

Edit: day two of Deck's ROM with the Savaged-Zen CFS SBC kernel. Totally on wifi, but now at 6 hours display on time. Web surfing. YouTube, etc. Stock battery.

Started getting some kinda drain on 1.3b. Even ventured into sense land for a day...did a clean install of 1.3d w all my own little mods and actually flashed the new tiamat 407 SBC. I can't believe I ever left! I unknowingly caused my drain with a rouge app.

I have my winner winner chicken dinner back! Battery life is rocking along. Rom is smooth. Very very happy once again. Aosp vs sense is such a debated arguement when its all android, what's the difference....but sense is a resource hog. I cannot get the battery life out of gingerbread sense that Aosp gives me. There is no comparison between the two. On sense my phone would never just idle at -25 mAh. Always something going on. W Aosp and sync on, always on mobile data, etc the phone just rests like it should. Very very happy again. And my affiliated networks :) oh how I missed that!
[EVO 4G Android Development] systemshock869:
Autokiller isn't a 'task killer' per se, it requires root privileges to actually tweak how fast android kills apps. It really helps with battery life as far as I can tell. Keeps apps like weather apps from running all day in the background. It has advanced tweaks as well, that change the way android handles the SD card, wifi, and lots more, basically with the goal of making the system quicker and more efficient. Don't ever call it a 'task killer.' =P

Edit: http://andrs.w3pla.net/autokiller/details

It's sister program, autorun manager, lets you disable apps from starting on bootup. It also allows you to look at all the systemwide recievers of every app installed and disable them individually. Very powerful program.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ropodope:
No one over here ever did say autokiller was a tsk mgr. we said we don't use or recommend task killers. holy cow man, did you buy stock in their company or something? Let it go.

Can someone explain what I just flashed?

I thought I was going to be flashing a rom like I have with many others, but when it was up and loaded all the old apps I had, the wallpaper, launcher, everything was still there.

Normally I wipe the cache, flash a rom, and everything is fresh. Whats this about?
[EVO 4G Android Development] evo_like:
:-)

First time trying deck's ROM--trying the 1.3d. I only flashed it last night, and haven't had a chance to test out as my daily for at least a few days, but I can already tell a little bit of difference in the battery life. I am using go launcher, and just set up everything the way I want to. Loving it so far :-) I am coming from sense ROMs, and I love the eye candy that sense provides, but man I am loving this ROM so far...thank you Deck!!!

I am also using the MIUI cam...saw somebody post the apk a few pages back. I like it better.

I just had a few quick q's...

Anybody recommend a kernel other than the stock one for better performance and better battery life?

Does hulu work on this ROM?

in general, what do some of you users recommend for better battery life?

TIA anybody, and everybody.
[EVO 4G Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
I'm running the Tiamat 4.0.7 SBC kernel that has been undervolted and modded with sysctl, and battery life is INSANE and getting much smoother performance than the CM kernel.

Did Google have your settings and apps backed up? It could have auto restored
[EVO 4G Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
Welcome to AOSP land; your wallpaper is saved and automatically applied, and all your apps are backed up and restored from the market upon install.

If you didn't want that, there is a checkbox during initialization that you need to uncheck so that the backup sync doesn't occur.
[EVO 4G Android Development] evo_like:
Awesome! Could you provide a link please? Also, is the kernel giving you any network issues, or sync issues or anything like that? (I ask because i read in the past people with undervolt had such issues...).

Another day with six hours display on time. Unlike yesterday, which was wifi only, today I was in a one bar signal area for a couple of hours and used my phone as a hot spot for around fifteen minutes. Battery life is improving even more as the ROM and kernel settles. I have never had battery like this before!

Edit: final tally: 6 hours & 40 mins display on time, including 22 min voice calls. Deck's ROM, Viperboy's undervolting, Savaged-Zen CFS kernel & Gemini App Manager makes a beautiful combination!

[EVO 4G Android Development] LordJezo:
Does anyone else have the issue of when you push the power button to turn the screen back on it doesn't automatically respond until you touch the screen?

If the screen has been off for a while and I push the power button it stays black and off. If I touch the screen after pushing the power button it lights up. I can even start the unlock swipe motion with the screen off and it will respond and unlock as the screen turns on.

Did what I try to explain make sense? Push power button, do nothing, screen doesnt turn on. Push power button, touch screen, screen comes on. If I turn it on and off a bunch after this first unlock it comes right on with the lock screen intact but if I come back a half hour later and push the power button it doesnt automatically light up.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jaquaslife:
haha ya man does the same thing for me, but no bigs just slide the screen and your DT will show back up. Im always coming back to thios rom. Cant seem to escape it! lol

I don't give a crApple what you think
[EVO 4G Android Development] stkiswr:
On my netgear I had to go to site on the bottom of my router and login. At the top under wireless settings I set it to 300mbps for 2.4ghz and 5ghz and it prompted me to set a password for wep maybe. Not sure. Not in front of it. There was an option to allow b,g and n but it was causing conflicts so I forced it to n only. My laptop can only grab g speeds but all my phones are grabbing n. If you are standing by your router and capped at 54mbps I have been told that's a tell tell sign you aren't on n. N is the only one that can go faster? Maybe someone can help clear that up. Mine were capped at 54 and immediately jumped to 70+ and my range increased.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jereemk:
What speeds are you paying for?
[EVO 4G Android Development] stkiswr:
Cox 12mb. They claim 15mb speed boost or some crap. I have seen speeds in the low 20s hardlined so I can't complain. Seems like on the phones her epic has hit 18mb dl and 9mb ul.

My Evo best has been 15mb dl and 7ish MB ul.
[EVO 4G Android Development] systemshock869:
Try raising min CPU speed, maybe different governor. Ondemand with min 254 worked for me..
[EVO 4G Android Development] mercado79:

I would say no. Change ur USB cable or PC port. I'd also try a proper wipe and install. I've yet to hear of this so im thinking your the only one.

I take it your sdcard works in phone? You could try to put it in an sdcard reader
[EVO 4G Android Development] Steven 1:
I actually had that occur to me a bunch of times. The screen would stay blank but the second you touched it , it would turn on and operate normally. I'm no expert but I'm assuming its a wake lock issue. Maybe a change of radios can help ?

Edit: forgot to refresh and noticed others talkin about this. Haha ignore my post unless it somewhat helps
[EVO 4G Android Development] jereemk:

but like you said i dont see why i should roam when im at home
[EVO 4G Android Development] linsalata28:
No I never keep it checked but I don't leave my state really let alone the country. LOL

Also I went back to my old radios and I can say that was definitely killing my battery .

If I was using the phone before I went back I was losing like 1% a minute I've been on here now for like 10 minutes and didn't drop not even 1% .

secondly so u reverted back to the old radios and everythings now great?

you think thats the issue im having? radios?

thanks 4 going out of ur way to help me out

[EVO 4G Android Development] linsalata28:
I'm not sure if you could get rid of it you could check it off I just didn't want to cause who knows if I would be roaming all the time and not notice it .

Yeah rolling back my radios fixed my problem you can try it and see what happens not all evos work the same but its worth a shot you can always just go right back if that wasn't your problem.
[EVO 4G Android Development] linsalata28:
I'm on the combo pack of 2.15.00.11.19 but before I had changed my pri to 1.77.003 but that was back when the gb ROMs first started to leak and my phone want sleeping so now I'm just trying out the whole combo pack and as it looks so far its sleeping just fine so I'll leave it like this for now.
