I have the same setup as you and just flashed from 1.8.1 to 1.8.5 (no wiping of any kind) and my power button works fine. I don't wipe anything when upgrading from ROM to ROM (as in from Gummy 1.7.5 to 1.8.1 to 1.8.5). I tested my power button several times. Not sure what is going on with yours. Make sure you are just doing an Install from ZIP with no wiping.

@Kejar31 - Nice addition of the Recovery and Download menus in the Phone options menu when hitting the power button. Much much easier to boot into those now. Haven't tried it yet though as I haven't needed to yet.

Update: I just installed a custom theme and my power button stopped working correctly. I flashed the 1.8.5 again to go back to the custom theme and now my power button is working correctly. Did you have a custom theme installed by chance, ten4copy?

Random Question:

what app does everyone use to recover all of your apps after wiping data? I'm referring to all the "free" apps i've downloaded. cuz it can take FOREVER to redownload all of those apps.

but is there any app out there that can make this transition easier?

thanks
[Verizon Droid Charge] chadness:
Titanium Backup is by far the most popular. That being said, having google sync your apps and redownload from the market for you is the best, though I have yet to figure out the secret of convincing it to do so when I want it to.
[Verizon Droid Charge] DJsRed:
I'll second Titanium Backup as a good backup solution. The paid version can run the backup as a batch operation, so you don't have to restore each app manually.

LOL, Google's sync seems to be hit or miss for me. After doing a factory reset for any reason (like installing a ROM), I usually put wifi on and let my phone sit for about 45 mins without using it so that it resyncs everything it can from Google. It usually works well for me. When it restore my apps, including the free ones, it will restore anywhere from 50% - 90% of them. Only once have I had it install all of my apps. Getting back the missing apps is where Titanium Backup comes in. Plus, it keeps track of your user data, like Angry Birds scores. ;)
[Verizon Droid Charge] reflekt2099:
thank you for the info! :)

i'll try titanium backup
[Verizon Droid Charge] Delicate Donut:
Lmfao! Angry birds! I do the same thing! buying the key for titanium is the best. Really useful app for every clean wipe you do. Root explorer is another one that is a must have.
[Verizon Droid Charge] stang68x:
Yeah, the Pro key for Titanium is definitely worth it. I suggest it for anyone looking to painfully restore apps + apps' data.

Off charged battery last night and cleared the stats this morning.. unplugged at 7am and it is now 3:50pm and bat is at 66% with light to medium usage. Bat stat wipe is the way to go :)
[Verizon Droid Charge] ten4copy:
I didn't have a custom theme on there but I did have the Lloyd droid battery mod, that could probably be why.
[Verizon Droid Charge] flybyturkey:
I had strange things happen when installing themes like my battery would stop charging at 99% so after I unplugged the phone, it would show 100% for a while. Not sure what was going on there. Flashed back to original and problem went away. I don't know... maybe its my ADD messing with me.:)
[Verizon Droid Charge] xboxusa:
When I plug my phone into the computer it doesn't work. It won't connect to the PC automatically.

How do I get the stock email app with the Verizon Gateway push option?
[Verizon Droid Charge] Delicate Donut:
Should help people with battery calibration!

1. Connect the phone to the charger with the phone powered on, and allow the phone to charge until it shows 100%

2. Disconnect the phone from the charger, and power it off.

3. Reconnect the phone to the charger with the phone powered off, and allow the phone to charge until the battery indicator shows 100% (you can use vol-up/vol-down to make the indicator come back up when the screen goes to sleep).

4. Disconnect the phone from the charger and power it on.

5. Once the phone is powered completely on, power it off again and reconnect it to the charger until the battery indicator shows 100%.

6. Delete the batterystats.bin file. You can either use CWM recovery to remove it, root explorer, or you can use ADB or a Terminal Emulator to run the following command:

•	Code:

•	su

•	rm /data/system/batterystats.bin

•	In order for a new batterystats.bin file to be created by the OS, you will need to boot up.

If you use CWM to delete the file, then once you start the phone back up it will recreate it.

If you delete it using ADB or a Terminal Emulator, you will need to reboot. To use root explorer( or other comparable app) go to data/system and delete the batterystats.bin file. You will then have to reboot so it can be recreated!

7. Unplug charger. Use the phone as normal until it shuts off, then plug it in and let it charge until full, turn it on and use as normal, you can now charge it whenever you like.

The new batterystats.bin file should now have enough information to accurately report how much battery life is remaining.

Hope this helps ;)
[Verizon Droid Charge] DJsRed:
I'm gonna try that method of wiping battery stats. Thanks!
[Verizon Droid Charge] DigitalOp:
OK, So I got my Charge, CWM flashing went well but when I go to install a kernel I dont have a "install from SD card" choice, I only have a install update.zip choice and when I choose that it briefly shows a loading bar and then it cuts to a screen with the "!" sign and a little droid icon next to it....

What am I doing wrong?...

EDIT 1: Only choices I have are:

"reboot system now"

"apply sdcard:update.zip"

"wipe data/factory reset"

"wipe cache partition"

"format internal sd-card"

EDIT 2: Nevermind I found out what happened. NooB Tip #45 : BOOT STRAIGHT INTO RECOVERY AFTER FLASHING WITH ODIN!!, OR ELSE YOU MUST FLASH AGAIN
[Verizon Droid Charge] Haloman800:
PLEASE mod the camera apk so I can take pictures with low battery life.. I can't even count the amount of awesome photos I've missed out on because of this crippling 'feature'.
[Verizon Droid Charge] deadwolfbones:
I had to turn on USB debugging to get my computer to recognize the phone.
[Verizon Droid Charge] MitchTank:
hey fellas, kejar I'm having major probs, got my new charge, let it update ee4 then used imnuts Odin bunldlethen upgraded to 1.8.5 and its reboot rabdomly, said Java script error once, can get you a logcat after four, I wiped everything to, and have not enabled vodoo or system lagfix, and I flashed the regular pbj as soon as it booted from Odin bundle, so I'm not sure what's up, may be corrupting my data on reboot, probly going to have to wipe again soon anyways, oh yeah, on the random reboot it only shows the boot animation,not the Samsung logo, hit me back if you can
[Verizon Droid Charge] MitchTank:
its almost like it reboot when I put any load on it, no matter how small, to include multiple touches on screen in a short period of time, like its overloading
[Verizon Droid Charge] Outsider2011:
There is now one thing I'm noticing now...the gallery is taking forever to load my pics and vids idk if this is a problem for anyone else but I literally have to close and reopen the gallery like 5-6 times...
[Verizon Droid Charge] Delicate Donut:
Gallery is working flawlessly here
[Verizon Droid Charge] ColonelSeitan:
I've had a lot of reboots like this. It's mainly when I'm playing a game, like Plants vs Zombies(and there's a pretty good load being put on the phone), and then the phone just turns off to reboot.
[Verizon Droid Charge] pdunn92074:
I had this happen to me. You need to install CWM again and make sure you dont reboot your phone before going into recovery. Install CWM again and follow the instructions and it should give you all the options. Its possible it might have hiccuped as well, but it worked for me on the second try. haha i just seen your last edit there. Oh well it all worked out.
[Verizon Droid Charge] DigitalOp:
Haha yup, Thanks for the reply, If I never figured it out, this would have helped me. Sooo I finished flashing last night, besides that slight bump everything went excellent!!! Im on Gummy 1.8.5 with imnuts PB&J Kernel and its awesome, Im bloat-free and super speedy.

I haven't seen anything crazy with my battery yet, I went to bed at 2:52 this morning with my battery at 48%, woke up today at 9:52 (huh thats strange lol) and now its at 36% 12% drop in 7 hours (3G on, everything else sleeping) is what im looking at, Is that pretty much normal? On a side note.... I see Lets Golf 2 is still installed on my phone, can I delete that without screwing stuff up?
[Verizon Droid Charge] Serinety:
So i have been having massive bad battery problems, but it seems I have resolved the issue following a few of the instructions found here (wipe battery stats, kill battery, charge back up.. etc)

So last night I let the phone die, then i plugged it in without powering it on to charge it to full.

when I turned it on, it took forever to boot, then it brought me to the setup screen again, however any time i did anything I got a force close.

now, everything I do force closes. the launcher will force close, the setup program force closes, everything. I had to do a battery pull to get out of the force close loop, but it still FCs every time i boot it up.

I am going to reflash again, but.. any idea what the hell happened? It was running great until I let the battery die. I dont know if that is related or not.. but it was the last thing that happened before this.

EDIT:

I wiped again, resintalled gummy. this time it finished setup, but now im getting "the process android.process.acore has stoped unexpectedly" every time i try and actually do anything on the phone. Wheni FC this, the phone works again for about 10 seconds, and then it locks up and this message pops up again.

phone was working FLAWLESSLY yesterday!

nothing other than xda is installed
[Verizon Droid Charge] zeuswsu:
I've had this happen to me a few times over the years. For whatever reason REDOWNLOADING the rom fixes the problem for me. Either it gets corrupted while downloading or moving over to my SD card or something. Just another thing to try....
[Verizon Droid Charge] Serinety:
cool, I will give that a try.

thanks :)

[Verizon Droid Charge] Syn Ack:
Mine reboots and mass storage does NOT work. I can't transfer files to or from the phone via the USB cable.
[Verizon Droid Charge] chadness:
Did you do the SD Card fix after loading whatever kernel you flashed?
[Verizon Droid Charge] Syn Ack:
No, I didn't :/

I went back to Altered Beast because whatever theme I flashed completely messed up Gummy. It's fine with every other rom/kernel but Gummy.

Also, whenever I pressed the power button it would just restart my phone. No menu or anything, just restarted it. I'll be back to Gummy when these get fixed, I know its not perfect.
[Verizon Droid Charge] chadness:
I think the power button problem is related to themeing as well, according to someone else with that problem. I've avoided putting any themes on since I upgraded to 1.85 to avoid this, but I'll probably stick with it until a good GB release.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Syn Ack:
I can't seem to get away from the TW4 theme with TW4 launcher. Its pure sexyness IMO.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Delicate Donut:
where did you get said launcher and is it working flawlessly without any bugs?
[Verizon Droid Charge] linkismyhero:
So my bootlogo has been choppy/glitchy ever since I installed the original release of GummyCHARGED. Would this have something to do with my Kernel, or is this just a byproduct of installing a custom ROM?
[Verizon Droid Charge] Delicate Donut:
Download boot animation changer lite it will fix that up for you! Just apply any of the animations and the choppiness will go away
[Verizon Droid Charge] criticalhit:
Touch Wiz bleh.
[Verizon Droid Charge] theReDkoolAiD:
Same here for all the above, when I do a wipe and a fresh install it works great and then reboot the FC loop starts all over again. I am going to try to download the rom again and do a fresh install. Is there any one who else has this problem and found a solution? Or and ideas to help?

Edit: Oh it is 1.8.5 that I am using

Edit 2: Just got done downloading the rom and doing a fresh install got the same end. I also tried the "fix permissions" with the same end
[Verizon Droid Charge] ckenda1:
I'm running CWM + PBJ + Voodoo + GummyCharged 1.8.5. (EE4)

I was curious if it was possible to take some of the stock .apks like SamsungWidget_WeatherClock.apk and install them?

When I take the .apks from the Stock EE4 zip and put them on my sdcard and try to install them, it starts to go through the process and just says "Application not installed."

Anyone know how to get these working, if at all?

Thanks!
[Verizon Droid Charge] Delicate Donut:
Try the stock deodexed ee4 rom
[Verizon Droid Charge] ckenda1:
I tried those as well from ee4_deodexed.zip. Pulled out the Samsung widget, put on SD Card, tried to install and same message.

Are there any other steps I need to follow but that?

Thanks
[Verizon Droid Charge] NotATreoFan:
Copy the APK to \system\app using Root Explorer, and set the permissions to match the other files in there.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Delicate Donut:
Yep a reboot might also be required as well
[Verizon Droid Charge] ckenda1:
Same message, "Application not installed." I even rebooted the phone after I placed it into /system/app and changed the perms to 644 (rw-r--r--) just like the others.

Any other ideas? Thanks guys!
[Verizon Droid Charge] Cruiserdude:
I just wanted to say I love GummyCharged, but I too had some issues with 1.8.5. Mainly the issue with the power button menu not coming up at all. I have Quickboot, so that's no issue, but it seemed to lock up and reboot from time to time. Could just have been from holding the power button when unlocking, but I just flashed back to 1.8.1 and everything is fine.

Still very happy with it, but I wanted you to know that I too have had issues. I have hw version i510.06, imnuts oc kernel, and EE4 basebands. Wiped before first 1.8.1 install last week. Let me know if there's any more info that would help you.
[Verizon Droid Charge] metalb00:
awesome rom, only issue was i had to go in with root explorer and completely delete the music.apk then reinstall it from the market for it to recognize my account
[Verizon Droid Charge] Delicate Donut:
Do you by chance have a theme or the puzzle lockscreen?
[Verizon Droid Charge] MitchTank:
everyone hated the puzzle lock screen, I loved it, it was different, not the same old sliders since thebegining, if anyone has it please post it would be greatly appriciated.
[Verizon Droid Charge] MitchTank:
one more thing seems like we all have issue with lock ups the power button and reboot, I dumped system rom and kernal in yellow cwm, wiped everything.... I mean everything and installed rom and kernal all over again, which worked out alot better,it has only locked up on me once since that.
[Verizon Droid Charge] asdecker:
Same issues for me with power button and rebooting. Everything good with straight 1.8.5 and tried to flash stock framework and suddenly power button problems. The nuke clock.zip however did not cause power button issues so I'll stick with this setup. DId the battery calibration procedures to hopefullty help with those issues. Everything else just fine.
[Verizon Droid Charge] hogowner:
Hi all....I have gummy 1.8.5, PBJ kernel (not OC) and I also have the nuke clock mod.....

When I go to my Wifi.....it does not connect...I am getting an ERROR message....

Is there a fix for this

Thanks!
[Verizon Droid Charge] Wardroid:
I like the rom alot, but I have 2 issues, first being my work email keeps notifying me of the same emails being new over and over, even after I check and mark them as read, this didnt happen before gummy. Also, when serch for contacts in the phone app, it is very difficult to get to a secondary phone for a contact...other than that I am happy.
[Verizon Droid Charge] linkismyhero:
Boot into recovery, do a factory wipe, and reflash 1.8.5. Sometimes it's as simple as reflashing your ROM.

If you want to make your app life a bit easier, download Titanium Backup and do a backup of your apps before wiping the phone.
[Verizon Droid Charge] hogowner:
First off....thanks for the response

I know I can do that....but really didn't want to reinstall everything...I have Titanium Backup......
[Verizon Droid Charge] davey11:
hogowner,

So you're saying that the nuke clock mod works on GC 1.8.5?

I have been holding off flashing that mod thinking it won't work on ee4. That file was made for ed2 and there was reports of it not working for ee4.

The clock in the status bar annoys me. If you can confirm its working, then I will flash pronto. :p
[Verizon Droid Charge] hogowner:
Confirmed. It works...I reinstalled 1.8.5 and then flashed the nuke clock again.....

EDIT::::The fresh install also fixed my wifi issues :)

Anyone able to get Lets Golf 2 from reinstalling everytime the phone reboots? There is nothing in my /preinstall folder. I don't know what else to try.
[Verizon Droid Charge] hogowner:
The funny thing is...I never did anything to get rid of that app....and it is not showing up at all.....maybe from the rooting method I used or the rom erased it....

I would try to uninstall or freeze it with titanium.....or if you can't, try to rename the file with root explorer..something like letsgolf.apk to letsgolf.apk.no..
[Verizon Droid Charge] davey11:
hogowner,

Thanks for the confirmation...flashed nuke clock and is all good.

Damn, I waited this long to find out this was working...coulda done this weeks ago and gotten rid of the clock.

Right on man thanks

Yes You will lose root. But I don't think it will take long to get it back.

Kejar - Thanks for the awesome looking rom.

I'm also waiting to see what can be done with EE4.
[Verizon Droid Charge] mylasthope:
How do you check what modem you're on and what the latest is? I could have sworn you could odin the modem (did this on my cousin's Sprint Epic 4g if I remember correctly).
[Verizon Droid Charge] kejar31:
I can confirm that both the radio and system file work on this phone independently of each other

SO in other words I can update the ROM to EE4 and you can install it even if you have not applied the update.. You will also be able to apply the radio update for improved coverage.. All while waiting for the Kernel team to get issues straitened out.. :)
[Verizon Droid Charge] avid.aria:
Yeah, I installed over altered beast...

Just make sure you do a full wipe!
[Verizon Droid Charge] kejar31:
I should have an EE4 ready ROM ready by tonight!
[Verizon Droid Charge] mylasthope:
Awesome. Do you recommend waiting until the update is pushed to our phones since some people are saying we need to do that in order to get the latest modem?
[Verizon Droid Charge] PorscheGuy:
I'm a little confused? Will your new EE4 Build include the new radio/modem or can/will it be able to be flashed separately without going back to stock and accepting the VZW update?
[Verizon Droid Charge] Stri26:
Do you think you could also post the TW Clock apk if that is possible?

Really liking the rom, the phone is feeling a lot better. Glad to see development picking up quickly for the charge. Thanks so much for all your work
[Verizon Droid Charge] papi92:
Your welcome
[Verizon Droid Charge] pestilent:
The blocking is accomplished via host file additions. You should be able to just remove them with root explorer.
[Verizon Droid Charge] MitchTank:
So root is lost. For how long, does our automatically restore? This rom has no kernal, does that mean I can flash straight to this rom from ed2 with jts voodoo kernal. Or am I completely wrong?
[Verizon Droid Charge] Echo5Kilo:
As of right now, I'm rooted, still on ED1. I used Root Explorer to edit the build.prop to get rid of the ED2 update notifications. If I stay rooted on ED1 (for the time being) even after this EE4 update comes out, am I going to have any problems with the radio and/or signal I've been reading about? I really want to flash this ROM, but I'm gonna hold off until CWM is running smoothly.
[Verizon Droid Charge] stang68x:
I'm gonna be honest, I'm a little confused. I'm currently running ED2 rooted with GummyCHARGED. How should I go about getting this newest Samsung update if I want to keep root and keep GummyCHARGED? Just wait until Kejar releases an update with EE4 baked in?

thanks!
[Verizon Droid Charge] kejar31:
I would not run that update!!!!!!

You can install the radio by its self via Odin

I will post a link in the OP
[Verizon Droid Charge] kejar31:
You should be able to flash the modem separately

Not really a "bug", but I noticed after I flashed 1.8.5 over 1.8, my Swype 3.0 beta I had installed, reverted back to 2.8, and it was in Chinese.

I have a REALLY stupid question.

In the beginning (sound familiar) I was able to use ODIN to flash 1.7.5, then upgrade to 1.8.1 then use the 1.8.5 zip on my phone.

For the life of me, I can't find how to get the 1.7.5 file or the 1.8.5 md5 file that has root and VooDoo.

I had to reset my phone due to the GB leak (which proved to be a nightmare) and I'm stuck back with full stock.

I'd greatly appreciate any help with links or how to get back to 1.8.5 on the Charge. It was great, but being an idiot, I deleted the files and can't find them on the board anymore.

Thanks in advance!!
