Using this rom, MIUI.us 1.6.17 lol Try running the bench 3 times or more, the first run is always slower
[Defy Android Development] walter79:
And could you tell me why?
[Defy Android Development] dieandromeda:
cus we already tried it long time ago.
[Defy Android Development] reinsen:
is there a way to keep MIUI launcher from adding icons to the homescreen or removing them without uninstalling the app or putting them in folders?
[Defy Android Development] digitalhater:
Thank you very much for this. I'll try to do this...but how do I revert back to the original ROM should I want to do this?

Thanks again!
[Defy Android Development] SimboXXX:
Am really loving this ROM. Been running it for about a day and found no bugs so far. Only thing is battery life is pretty brutal compared to Nordic Froyo. As far as i can see i've got it all set up the same as i did 2.2.2, but it dropped 20% over night compared to 1-2%. Background data is off etc. Any advice?

I'm having problems with the Market recognizing my apps. I deleted the market cache and the Google account is set up. Can't find anywhere i'm supposed to log into market??

Edit: My Apps now visible in market - don't know why, didn't do anything :)
[Defy Android Development] alakiha:
I have the same question :confused:
[Defy Android Development] keewanchoapsss:
You simply factory reset your phone, boot into bootloader then flash your countries official update to 2.2
[Defy Android Development] stefa_vr6:
Just instaled 1.6.24 over 1.6.17. It seems to be OK. Wiped only cache and dalvik cache
[Defy Android Development] fabianowerner:
same here, everything is as usual. by the way i cant see the new lockscreens.
[Defy Android Development] vjgrace:
no more 3g, just edge

hello all,

just flashed 1.6.24 and am only getting 2g (edge/gprs) frequencies, no more 3g...wondering if anyone else is experiencing the same thing and if there is a fix?

thanks for your time
[Defy Android Development] stunno:
You need to change your baseband
[Defy Android Development] reinsen:
if i flash the new version just over my current version, are my apps and settings going to be affected?

i dont want to setup everything again.
[Defy Android Development] multiplash:
No if you don't wipe data, they remain installed, and the data also stays.
[Defy Android Development] keewanchoapsss:
Just use Titanium Backup and back all your apps up jut incase, thats what I did. If your apps are on your SD card and after flash of new ROM it says they aint installed, just go to manage apps and move them to phone memory and then back to SD card.
[Defy Android Development] pcolley:
can anyone tell me how to make the keyboard vibrate when doing a text as i have it set to on but it doesnt work thats the only thing i cant do :-(
[Defy Android Development] aimsforu:
I too need a answer to this question!!!
[Defy Android Development] keewanchoapsss:
Thats a bug that appeared AFTER 1.6.10, it worked on that rom then stopped working on 1.6.17, dont know how to fix

Sense 3.0 looks awesome. But I still prefer vanilla android. All the Widgets and Facebook integration is cool but I don't use any of it. Can someone say why exactly they are ditching the g2x
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dachinaman:
Im ditching because of bad speaker quality, hosed GPS, bad HDMI output, constant reboots even after doing pauls fix
[T-Mobile LG G2x] *Omnipresent*:
Not me. I'm keeping my G2x. I got a good one with no issues except minimum light bleed. If i was to give up my G2x, it wouldn't be for the Sensation. I'm waiting to see what the Samsung Hercules or Dell Opus 1 have to offer.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
Nope. I'm sure Sensation is a good phone, but this G2X is amazing.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] RANDYRKELLY:
I love htc. And this phone was my first lg phone. And I was very disappointed in it.i change phones monthly. So I also like to test, review, learn, and help others on multiple devices.

Last day with my LG G2X. Sensation here I come.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] RANDYRKELLY:
There ditching the g2 not the g2x

Last day with my LG G2X. Sensation here I come.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] rllong1:
Wait your post says g2x not g2
[T-Mobile LG G2x] RANDYRKELLY:
The op says G2X. And i posted this in the G2X forums.

Last day with my LG G2X. Sensation here I come.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] darbear5610:
Sending in my G2x for.....another G2x! xD I'm getting a replacement in the mail soon.

Besides my defective touchscreen of death and shoddy GPS, the phone was pretty good. So I'm giving LG a second chance here. Even if this new one's GPS ain't perfect, as long as the screen works, I will consider the best Android phone I've owned yet. Besides, I ain't down with Sense and I don't have the patience to wait for HTC to unlock the bootloader on it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tackleberry:
Sense rom and a screen that is useless outdoors compared to the g2x. Have fun.

G2x with CM7 and faux .18 kernel. oc@1500 5091 quadrant.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mysterioustko:
After having had trialed the Sensation for about a week I have made my decision. I am going to get rid of my G2X. The Sensation is just so much more stable than the G2X. It's been about a week now, and I still have not had any problems (other than data latency which was easily fixed). The phone still has not crashed once, whereas in a week my G2X would have already have crashed several times. The Sensation is not quite as peppy as the G2X but for me that's a small tradeoff for a screen with absolutely no bleed, a phone that does not crash, and sense 3.0 is pretty impressive. Both phones are good phones but I think the Sensation's quality is definitely a step above that of the G2X.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] RANDYRKELLY:
Same here. it just works
[T-Mobile LG G2x] RANDYRKELLY:
my screen is great out doors. have u even used this phone outside?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] alodar1:
I received my G2x yesterday. Coming up on 24hrs. Spent 3 days with the Sensation and was a previous Nexus One user.

I will NOT be going back to the Sensation.

The G2x feels better, is faster and smoother.

From 5 years of using HTC phones, they are not immune to the problems people see with every other phone. They hang, freeze, reboot and bleed just like others. HTC is just as unresponsive to customers as LG or Samsung or Motorola is.

After owning many different phones...android and Windows Mobile alike, I've developed a theory. Put the phone of your choice in your hands. How does it work. If it works great...keep it. If not, lose it. We've seen from all the forums, that some people get lemons, some do not. The lemon owners are louder that those whose devices are fine.

But if you buy on spec....beware. Each phone you buy is subject to all the issues any phone may have.

I received mine yesterday. the manufacture date is 5/14. Maybe they corrected the problems that plagued earlier devices. Maybe not. Maybe I'm just lucky. Or maybe I'm just lying. But I've reviewed several phones in the past 3 weeks....read that as....had the phone in my hand and put it through the courses...alodar's courses. Some left the store for an overnight test. Only 3 did...the Droid x2, the Sensation and the G2x. Only the G2x remains.

Maybe I got a good one....if the sensation is for you....then I hope you get a good one.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bls2633:
same goes for me. I heard the Sensation is having a ton of issues also. The screen doesnt pick up the first tap alot, the wifi is messed up, and a few other things. I have came this far with the G2X so I am gonna stick it out to see whats to come at least till the Hercules, and the Dell get here.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] alodar1:
Would you seriously consider a Dell?? They are on a losing streak right now and with ****ty serious to boot. The Dell Venue Pro, the last 2 Streaks are riden with issues. The android Dell Venue just received a less than stellar review by cnet I believe.

Might want to let Dells ride for awhile..

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Viper Daimao:
So I just installed BAMF remix 1.7 on my newly rooted TB and it seemed slow with bad battery life. This seems to be atypical so I was wondering if anyone could help me out figuring out my problem.

I downloaded the rom and flashed it from rom manager, selecting to clear the cache and dalvic cache. The install went fine and I restored my user apps from titanium backup. While it was going through and installing all of these apps, super user force closed a couple of times. Then there were some applications that kept force closing like handcent, flexT9, and Swift keyboard X, but uninstalling and reinstalling them seemed to fix the problems. I then reset the battery statistics from cwm.

I set up the accounts and sync like I had before and in fact had less accounts syncing since I was only syncing facebook and not facebook and the htc sense facebook both. I didn't change the kernal but set the governor to power save after I started noticing the battery running out quick.

When I was on stock running adw or go launcher, I would get about 15 hours from a full charge on 4G. Today after a full charge I got about 6.5 hours on a full charge.

Should I have done a factory reset in there? Is there a different kernal I should try? Should I try to flash the rom again without using rom manager?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnkc1975:
You should definitely wipe all data before flashing any custom ROM. Many people have also had a lot of issues flashing with Rom Manager, including myself. DL the ROM from the developers page, place it on the root of your SD card (not in a folder), rename it to "update.zip" with a file manager, then use ROM Manager to boot into recovery. Wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache and dalvic then apply update from SD card. If you don't have a file manager on your phone, rename it on your PC then move to the card. You should be good after that.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g00s3y:
You need to wipe data when coming from a different rom.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrootz:
Have you tried use Imoseyon battery saver or extreme kernel? It does gives great battery life if you find sweet spot on your TB.

PS. You must wipe everything if you are coming from another ROM.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peyman_2002:
I have the same issue as OP. I have wiped dalvik/cache/data. I did factory reset and I am running the BAMF 1.7 remix with Adrenalyn's Kernel and the new radio that's provided in the rom. I've read that this rom and kernel are good with battery life but mine drains at a very fast rate 1% about 3 mins. I don't have any data sucking apps. GPS is always off and Im on 3G using AUTO(PRL).

Any suggestions?

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] htcthundr:
i had slow and no responsive with the screen it was pissing me off so i updated to gingerbread and it works like it should now. No 4 second lag and no anger
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XViCi0uSX:
you should def do a full wipe before installating a new rom. :)

Battery life on 1.7 sucked for me too until I did a battery calibration, which I'd recommend doing after flashing a new rom.

- charge to 100% (turn phone off, wait till light turns green)

- boot into recovery, wipe battery stats

- reboot phone, unplug, wait till battery totally drains before plugging in again

I also went into the bamf toolkit and set the min to 245 and max to 1.024 w governor 'smartass'.

Since I did that the batt life has been much better, good luck.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Viper Daimao:
thanks, I'm going to try redoing the install and this battery calibration. I'm actually trying to decide on whether to keep 1.7 remix or go stripped.

So I think my slowness was from putting the governor to power saver. It runs much better with smartass. I basically understand what the other governor settings do, but what does smartass do?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XViCi0uSX:
Basically, it sets the min and max as needed... like when its sleeping, it'll set the min at 245 mhz. At least that's what I understand lol

Here's some more info...

(Copy n paste, it won't let me post a link)

droidforums.net/forum/droid-incredible-tech-issues/109934-smart-governor-setcpu.html

Also, there's a free app on the market called battery calibration by NeMo.. it'll let u kno when its charged to 100% and then it'll wipe it batt stats for ya.

Hope this helps :)

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Viper Daimao:
question about kernals, I installed bamf stripped so I don't have sense anymore. Can I still install the Adrynalyne kernals in kernal manager labeled "Sense" or do I need to find stock versions?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Viper Daimao:
just tried this and after wiping the stats and charging fully I'm at 16% after 3h 40mins. Will see if it gets better on subsequent recharges
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Beastclaw:
Yes, even tho you used the stripped rom it still has sense elements.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Viper Daimao:
charged it to full last night, and with very light use it's at 27% after 4 and a half hours. I think I'd get to almost 6 hours if I let it run down.

That's some improvement but I think it may have more to do with not playing plants vs zombies any this time. The battery now gets fairly hot when playing PvZ when it didn't before.

I'm not sure what the problem is but I cannot live with only getting 4-6 hours of life out of a phone. I think I'm going to have to try a non-bamf rom.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ktech11:
I got around 14-16 hours on that ROM. What kernel/radio are u running? I also kept WiFi and Gps off when I wasn't using it. I also had min/max at 245/1.402.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Beastclaw:
Look at your Battery Stats. What does it say is using the majority of your battery?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Viper Daimao:
I'm running 4G and keep wifi and gps off too along with the brightness being around 20. when I was non-rooted I got about 14-16 also (counting 7 hours of idle at night) I have my settings set to the same as before I was rooted. I'm running whatever kernal/radio came with sripped bamf 1.7. I had applied the MR1 update OTA unrooted when it came out but otherwise haven't changed anything regarding kernal or radio.

it shows the display at about 40-50%, 20 for car home screen (I have it on and streaming music during my 25 minute right to work, seems high but it's not on any more than that and the drain is still pretty constant). For instance, I charged it up to about 29% and it drained to zero and shut down while I was at lunch over about an hour an a half.

Looking at my currant widget log. I started at 29% at 11:43 then dropped 1% of battery every 2-3 minutes or so (while idle in my pocket) then it hit 8% at 1:03pm and stayed there till 1:08 at which point it shut down.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rhelfand:
Just to add my $.02 ... I'm running BAMF 1.7. I don't mess with kernel settings or anything like that, just whatever comes with the non-remix 1.7 ROM.

Prior to last week, I was getting a good 15 hours on my stock battery (light - moderate usage), but something changed last week and I am getting pretty poor battery life now, like 6 - 8 hours.

I posted a reply over on a forum at Android Central but I haven't seen any definitive cause yet. Our theory is that an application update might be causing an issue. I was searching over here to see if anyone was having similar issues.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Viper Daimao:
I'm getting much better battery life now. Got about 24 hours on 4G the whole time. I think it might have been because I was signed on to trillian but I still need to test. It's odd because before rooting I got 14-15 hours of 4G and I'm pretty sure I was signed on trillian then too.

But u still have to pay a monthly service fee. This is an alternative used to come up on the man. Stick with the free app. (I wont lose any sleep.) It just doesn't do the same thing. Werd.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] anti-up:
I dont pay any monthly service fee, I pay for my plan which is 79.99+ tax. I get no service at my house so I'm always connected to wifi. Doesn't cost anything extra, doesn't use my monthly plan minutes. So what does this app do that is so special/different than the stock app. I wont be losing any sleep either. WORD.

You shouldn't download it on the phone and just install like any other apk? All we need now is an app or recovery file that can unlock a brand new ns4g and we have an easy and lazy way of getting the phone up to speed.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] joeykrim:
Good question. I did have the phrase, "download directly to the phone" in my OP but it wasn't very clear or prominent so I rephrased and change its position.

Thanks for the support! Hope this is working well for all!
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] joeykrim:
Updated app to support the Nexus S along with the Nexus S 4G

Also, added link to OP to download the Teamwin Recovery. Very easy to flash the custom recovery with this app!
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] raiderep:
Wow, just wow....team win is on fire!

edit: So I downed the teamwin recovery and flashed it with the app, works just fine. This is really good stuff guys, thanx for doing this!

Only thing I might add if I had the super powers you guys have is the option to use my own file explorer to find the img I want to flash. The one in the app works fine but I am just plain old hard to please I suppose...

anyways, I just have this to say: teamwin for the WIN! ;)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] fosdos4790:
Tried this out and when I go to boot into recovery it takes me to the android guy with bootloader, reboot, recovery, and power off on the left. At the top it says no recovery img and when I click recovery it takes me to the google screen, then immediately back to that screen. Obviously this means it didn't flash the recovery img. What went wrong?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] GuestK001:
Did you wipe cache or dalvik cache?

If you did, flash recovery again without a wipe.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] eatTHESEbullets:
This did not work for me. I installed your app, then flashed the recovery and when I go to reboot into recovery km stuck at Google screen.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] fosdos4790:
Never wiped the caches and that was the result
