It supports the official apps to SD.. the ext partition method came from g1 development because of lack of app space.. basically its not required with the g2x w/1.5 gigs of app storage and the official apps to SD method, but I'm pretty sure on the stock rom it will put your apps on the internal SD as opposed to your micro SD card (I hope this is understandable)

Hi .. I have a problem with my HTC Desire (GSM). Alpharev was installed to enable S-OFF. I messed something up and now my Desire boots into fastboot but there is only black screen. I can communicate with phone using fastboot command but screen is dead. It's not a problem with a screen but probably with bootloader etc. I've got goldcard.. How to reflash Desire from beginning ?

Please help :)

angusc - you saved my ass :)

I had to flash with original rom from my polish provider (fastboot in RUU mode). It ended with error 90 but screen started working so I moved rom (zip) to sdcard (PB99IMG.zip) and restore ended successfully.

It didn't resolved my primary issue - overheating. It looks like I have to send my Desire to warranty. At the beginning everything was fine but after few months it started to reboot randomly when phone was in use and now phone reboots every few minutes.. When phone is turned off there is no problem to boot properly but after few minutes it crashes again because is overheated and goes into reboot loop during boot process.

Hate to post anything about battery life, but I must. I would post this in the dev thread but not enough posts yet.

First off battery life was not that bad on froyo and understand GB has issues but this seems a bit extreme. I am running Full version of Gingetitis and other state battery life is great but not for me. I did full drain and battery wipe and calibration last night but seems even worse now . Phone has been on for 37 minutes and battery is down to 80%. brightness is turned all the way down, screen off in 1 minute, I have run speedtweak and set to battery saver, no gps, no blue tooth. I love gingeritis and the sense 3.0 so any assistance would be great.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MONKY_1:
Nope battery life is terrible on chingys GB rom. I was running it not good.

I'm using dasBAMF REMIX V6 amazing battery !:D
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onyx_64:
which kernel you are using?

i use the mr2 radio and 3.0.1 kernel. The batterylife is worse than froyo i agree, but it shouldnt be too bad to not last for a day.

Also, i think 4G drains a lot. My area switched form 3G to 4G and its gone worse.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aratheff:
I am running the default kernel, haven't flashed anything else. Unfortunately I do not live in an area with 4G so I just get 3g, I do run WiFi when at home.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] feinanusa:
I have the same issue.

I just tweak the speedtweak into option 5)

I went out taday. tb lost 10% battery per hr. Is this normal?:confused:
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nrfitchett4:
Did you turn off 3g in the settings?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aratheff:

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phoney6:
This is interesting because I'm on gingeritis with the included kernel and my battery life has been very good.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] feinanusa:
If everyone post their usage and battery drain condition. That will be more help us to realize our TB. Cause we might have different phone before, and we might compare TB with our privious phone. So I think this is the different replies on this thread.

ex. my previous phone is droid 2 global, and it has terrible battery drain as well.

Now I got TB for a couple days, and I feel TB get more battery drain problems. (of course, it is the first 4G LTE phone )

kernel: imoseyon 3.01

baseband: 1.39.00.0430

rom: Gingeritis v1.0

and I set speedtweak.sh as battsaver 5) and battery tip on rom's op.

that's I do to my phone now.

And I lost 10% battery life per hour (use 4G to surf on net)

Is my battery drain case terrible?

(I think only comparsion can help us to know where is the problem )
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MONKY_1:

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studiorat:
I had that rom!!! And I was losing 30 percent an hour with almost no usage on that Rom...face it the Tbolt for as bad ass as it is the battery sucks....many devs claim their battery is great but for the average user noob or not the battery is terrible HTC really should have thought about this a bit more before trying to have the latest greatest the extended battery on my blackberry gets almost 3 days on a full charge with moderate to heavy usage, this piece of android crap gets almost 3 hours on a full charge with little to no usage, seems senseless(no pun intended) to pay this kind of money for a device that is useless after an hour or 2 off the charger not all of us have cushy jobs where we can keep our phones at our desks on the charger!!

Try dream kernel. Using Gingeritis with it has given me superb battery life.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thunderbread:
I'm running 1.0 with kernel that comes with it with rapist and battery life was alright. Got extended battery this weekend. It takes away from the tbolts sleekness but man its worth it. Good 9 hours of web YouTube facebook phone and texting and its at 51% and still strong. Love it.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dondk:
I agree! I was running BAMF froyo remix with outstanding battery life. Made the switch to gingeritis and the battery life was so-so, tried the dream kernel and for a few days the battery life was as good as froyo. Then random reboots forced me back to stock kernel with gingeritis with normal on speedtweak and it is slightly better than before.

There should be a new dream kernel out soon, I plan to try that one when it drops, dream kernel was great when it worked.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] feinanusa:

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Envy Nixon:
I am running gingeritis and a full charge last me about 7 hours, on a good day. Mind you, I am over clocked to 1.4 and have a bad habit of checking my phone even when I haven't felt it vibrate or heard it ring. Because of this, I started to notice that when I would pull my phone out of my pocket, the screen would be on. I'm assuming that my constant movement at work is causing my volume button to be pressed, resulting in my display eating up 50% of my battery.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meblah741:
I've been running BAMF Remix Beta 6 for almost a week now. I just got the extended battery a few days. It's lasted anywhere from 12-16 hours on a full charge with 4G always on. Earlier today I had it on 3G only and lost 25% in about 4 hr and 40 min. I am using batterysaver in speedtweak.sh with the kernel that came with the ROM.

Read up on the radio technology bud. This phone and all LTE phones aren't true 4g YET. This happens after the 4g antenna is backwords compatible with 3g hence no need for 2 radios. This may be the first LTE phone, but the tech isn't there yet.

I recently rooted my phone and want to install a custom rom. I bought bandroidx's recovery app and hope to install his custom rom. unfortunately im a bit of a noob and don't know how to use the app properly. Can any one provide some more detailed instructions for this process than what is posted with bandroidx's release thread.

Thanks in advance.
[Bravo General] heydabop:
Download the ROM zip to your sdcard, then open the app and bootstrap recovery, then reboot into recovery and clear cache and dalvik cache (in advanced) and then choose to install zip from sdcard and select the rom zip you downloaded earlier. :O
[Bravo General] FanDroid09:
Thanks heydabop :)

Also if i needed to flash back to my old rom how should i back up my current stock froyo?
[Bravo General] heydabop:
I'd do a backup with titanium backup, and then also backup in recovery by going to backup and restore.
[Bravo General] kyngnothing:
You can also flash the "SBF" file using RSDLite, that takes you back to a 100% stock configuration.

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] enerp8:
Right now I'm a little bit confused. When I slide out the gamepad and the Xperia Play App appears, I've got access to all games developed to XP. In the top right corner there is a link to the Android Market where it lists the "Xperia Play Optimized" Apps.

Here's my question, why there are some games there are listed on the Android Market that do not appear in the XP App? For example Baseball Superstars 2011, just to mention the first I found in the list.

I understand why some games don't appear on Android Market (ex. Gameloft's), but the opposite I can't understand why.

This is confusing and doesn't make much sense. Not to mention the PS Pocket games, if this is a Playstation certified device, PS games should be the first to appear when the gamepad is open.

I end with a suggestion, why not reunite all games together when the slide is open, PS Pocket included.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Logseman:
And that is, not counting the PlayNow market. Sony should cut on the different markets' malarky.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] enerp8:
Yes, I forgot the Play Now market. For me it's just another useless app on my phone.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Nhialor:
I got rid of that play now piece of ****, yeah I dunno, it would have been better to have the slide out with XP games on one tab down the bottom and PS1 games on the other, and in order to buy more games, have a button in the top right (like now)! Then do away with the 2 other markets...!
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] icebear8:
I bought morden combat 2 on my old phone thur market and when I try to search for it in market its not there anymore only in xperia play market which there makin me buy again :( is there a way around that
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] zerojay:
To show up in the Xperia Play app directly, app developers need to submit their apps directly to Sony Ericsson. That's why not all apps in the Market show up.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] speedyink:
E-mail Gameloft?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Logseman:
I guess it's because the version you buy in the Xperia Play market is the Xperia Play optimized one, and the non-optimized versions will not appear anywhere.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] dsswoosh:
Apple and Android market the crap out of how many millions of apps they have.

Truth is, most of them are useless.

Probably 99.99% of them are total crud :)

[HTC Sensation] xnifex:
correct. youtube & pretty much any video display device is for landscape. if you film in portrait & upload it will try to resize it in to a landscape player.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Timmmmmm:
Hi, I managed to build a kernel from Samsung's sources, but it doesn't work (boot loop). It also seems to be much smaller than the official builds (4.6 MB vs 8 MB). Here's exactly what I did, I wonder if someone could tell me where I'm going wrong:

1. Download & extract the kernel sources from here : https://opensource.samsung.com/reception/reception_main.do?method=reception_search&searchValue=I9100

2. Download and install the old code sourcery GCC as recommended in Samsung's readme from here: http://www.codesourcery.com/sgpp/lite/arm/portal/release298

3. Move the code sourcery install to /opt/toolchains/arm-2009q3

4. Edit kernel/Makefile and change CROSS_COMPILE to

CROSS_COMPILE ?= /opt/toolchains/arm-2009q3/bin/arm-none-eabi-

(it was arm-linux-gnueabi- I think).

5. In kernel, make c1_rev02_defconfig && make

6. It worked, and I got a zImage. I flashed it using heimdall like this:

heimdall flash --kernel zImage

(That worked when I went back to stock so it is obviously correct, but using my kernel I get a reboot loop.)

Anyone have any idea what's so different with my build compared to Samsung's that results in it not working, and being so much smaller?
