I'm sorry, but this solution was not working.

It was down to 6ma for a while, but after some minutes it was back to draining my battery with up to 200ma in standby.

If your post had a like button, I would click it.
[HTC Sensation] jahmezis45:
What are you using to check your battery MA? I use battery monitor widget and it never shows less than 200ma and I know those numbers have to be off a bit...my battery went down 4% overnight but the widget showed 200ma the whole time! Anyone know a battery ma widget that actually works?
[HTC Sensation] NoModE:
Yes, that's the one I'm using.

But i'm not sure if it's working 100% or not.

Anyone else know?
[HTC Sensation] jahmezis45:
ok i emailed the developer for battery monitor widget and he sent me an updated apk. but i think it was a simple option that he added that has seemed to fix the problem. Now im getting regular readings like 2ma and so on. i would email the developer and tell him your having the same problem as jahmezis45 and see if he can help. Hope this helps!
[HTC Sensation] Spirit81:
i have same problem with battery monitor, it is allways over 200mA
[HTC Sensation] jahmezis45:
yea its reading the information from the device wrong. email the developer, email address is in his program on the android market
[HTC Sensation] eastjavaman:
I dont know why I bother having a smartphone, it spends so much time in the charger, I might as well call it landline
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
First thing, I stopped using all battery and current monitoring apps when I realized they were a part of the problem and not part of a solution. They are simply drawing power and keeping the phone awake and are not really accurate anyways. Only actual usage time matters. Can you use it throughout the whole day with "normal" (for you!) usage patterns?

If you have something draining your battery over time, it is likely to be an app keeping the phone awake so it doesn't go into deep sleep mode.

Connect the USB cable to the phone and PC and run this command:

adb shell dumpsys alarm > AlarmDump.txt

Then have a look at the file, towards the bottom you get Stats. In here is the breakdown of what's causing the device to wake up. (h/t catnap)

The screen may be the single biggest drawer of power, so I usually suggest disabling auto-brightness and setting the brightness to a level you can work with, for me around 25% works. I also edit my build.prop and change the supplicant timer from 120 to 900 to prevent WiFi from pinging my remembered networks as often, turn off open network notification, and run the mobile network on 3G instead of 4G since it uses less power.

Some other things to do include turning off pocket mode under the sounds settings (turns off proximity detector) and disable vibrate feedback.

Since the update to GB... my voice-to-text has not been working properly in the car. I first thought it might be background noise like the A/C or something but it appears to only happen when the car is moving.

Isn't this the whole point of voice-to-text? To keep you safe while driving so it doesn't require typing. Am I the only one with this problem? Is there any kind of workaround? I depend heavily on this feature. This is a big negative for me.
[EVO 4G General] smkcbs10:
Same issue here. Voice to text has been broken for me since the first GB update on a stock unrooted EVO.
[EVO 4G General] skullshank:
busted here too.

sucks.
[EVO 4G General] pknath19:

[EVO 4G General] AudioJerm:
Have y'all tried updating voice search from the market? I noticed there was a recent update for it mentioning bug fixes.
[EVO 4G General] cfendrick:
Tried updating everything. Full factory restore on Unrooted GB 2.3.3 both the first release and with the maintenance fix. Changed Voice Input and Output settings. Changed the Google account dashboard and personalization. Everything and even rolling back to 2.2 which doesn't work because of the new Hboot.

It is completely broken. You get going 20-25mph+ and the mic does not respond.

Hope that it is address in a future release update (not likely), but will have to root and roll back.

Can any one that is rooted and on the stock 2.3 or different rom confirm if voice search is working for them?
[EVO 4G General] JackStorm:
Yeah... I updated Voice Search and I will find out later if it works when I get in my car.
[EVO 4G General] JackStorm:
Well, I did the Voice Search update and still can't do voice to text in the car while it's moving. This is ridiculous! I love using HeyTell especially when driving and now it has become useless.
[EVO 4G General] kd0axs:
A guy at work asked me today if i knew anything about this problem. He has had this problem since the GB update and his EVO is stock and not rooted. I told him I would look into it. Looks like I found the answer.

[EVO 4G General] dpilcher:
I did; however, find out that the voice search does work in the texting mode once you've hit the car in front of you wondering why it wasn't working during the driving process. Once stopped, it is amazing!

EDIT: OK..couldn't resist, but reminds me of the little "Don't use this while your driving" disclaimer in the gps units turning them on.
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
I've had issues with it when not moving.

I'm not sure where this connection to driving comes into play?
[EVO 4G General] JackStorm:
The whole advantage of voice-to-text is so you don't text while driving. My phone sits in a dock in the car. If someone texts me, I can verbally respond without taking my hands off the wheel. You know... kinda like talking on the phone hands-free. That's why voice-to-text is so valuable to me.

Earlier tonight I discovered the problem is worse. I was outside taking a walk and decided to use voice-to-text and nothing. Would not recognize. But once I stopped walking and used it... it was fine. So it's not just limited to driving. They need to fix this problem!
[EVO 4G General] kd0axs:
I did some looking around on Google and this issue has been reported on multiple different sites. However, it seems that it's more related to background noise rather than being in a moving vehicle. If there is any amount of background noise, voice to text seems to not work properly. It seems that it works fine if you are in a completely silent environment.

Sent from my HTC EVO 4G with Tapatalk
[EVO 4G General] JackStorm:
Yeah... I read the same thing but my tests did not ring true. When I was stopped at a light, I put the AC on at full blast and the voice-to-text worked flawlessly. But as soon as I moved and even with the AC off... nothing. For me, there didn't seem to be any connection with background noise... only movement.
[EVO 4G General] AudioJerm:
My only other suggestion is to try an app called Vlingo for the mean time. The In Car mode is amazing. Just say "hey vlingo" and it starts listening to commands. It really is completely hands free. You never have to touch your phone to send texts and it even reads your message back to you to confirm before sending. I've never had problems with it although the in car mode is still in beta. Good luck!
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
I just spoke this entire post while driving 45 miles an hour down the road using Google voice search.
[EVO 4G General] sand1303:
I had same issue on stock Rom. I believe if u look at main settings, voice input and output, text to speach settings, and in there it should say something about downloading something. If it needs updating u can press it and market will open with what u need
[EVO 4G General] JackStorm:
So I tried going through the text-to-speech settings but no luck. The issue doesn't seem to be with text-to-speech but with voice-to-text. It's like the microphone stops picking up audio when in motion.

Nevertheless... got this today from HTC...

same for me too, Voice input to anything (navigation, search, ect) has been broken for me since the first GB update, however text input will work will work(go figure). As this is my work phone and I used voice navigation before, it is a problem. I have to use my personal (g2x running gb) phone to do navigation now, it works fine.
[EVO 4G General] MultiDev:
The newest maintenance OTA from Sprint claims to fix voice recognition problems.

You might want to give that a try.

[Q]

Hi,

I have nexus s GRJ22 Android 2.3.4 I904. I tried rooting it using clockwork and super user but after doing that when i reboot It stays in the google logo. I could find that i was not able to mount system in the clockwork recovery with means that its not having sufficient permissions .

1. Factory reset - not working

2. Tried fixing permissions - not working

3. tried remounting - not working

what i'm possible to do is get into fastboot mode and clockwork recovery mode and in the normal booting it stays at the google logo.

with this i can say i messed up something when i was rooting. and the phone is useless now.

The last option i know now is fastboot flashing of all the images (boot, system, recovery). How to flash everything finally and bring it back to the state which I got from the factory?

I'm looking for if any one has theses images so that I can fastboot flash it and bring it back in an operating condition.

I'm new to android development, android devices and a noob.

Please do ask If you guys need any more info.

I appreciate any answers and thanks for reading my question.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suksit:
First, make sure that ClockWorkMod recovery that you installed is the right version for your NS model (sorry but I don't know what the "I904" means)

After you flashed the correct recovery then I'd suggest you go to this thread and see if there is a full OTA package for your NS model. If there is one then you can download it, connect your phone to a PC, mount SD card from the recovery, copy the package over then flash it. That should bring your NS back to life.

If there is no OTA package for your model then you can search/ask for a stock nandroid backup of your phone model. It's most likely that someone has already posted it here in xda.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rakeshpatil1983:
Thanks for the reply.

its not I904 I'm sorry its I9020 which is the model number of the phone.

I tried the link that you had posted already but it stops at getprop function in the script when i do the update and says status 7 error and the update fails because the /system is not mounting.

Kindly suggest me to bring this phone back.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suksit:
Hmm, I still have the impression that you have the incorrect version of CWM. What is your service provider? As far as I remember, the I9020T and I9020A require a different version of CWM. And also what is the version of CWM installed?

If you've got the I9020T, try installing this one (from kouch's site)

But if you've got the I9020A, you should try the recovery from this guide (Part 3 - Recovery)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rakeshpatil1983:
Sorry for the delayed response ,

I have the Tmobile carrier and its I9020T. The version of CWR is 3.0.2.4 which is running. As i said before its not monting the /system.

any other options that I have. ?

Please suggest

Thanks for your time..
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rakeshpatil1983:
I got the nandroid for GRJ22 I9020T.

I'm unable to fastboot flash boot boot.img from this ROM.

also tried to do the same way for system.img it says Invalid Magic Code !

thankyou suksit I recovered the ROM link that u had posted. I pushed using the adb on to the sdcard and installed from the CWR. I had tried that initially but had not worked.. but now it worked perfectly..

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
your phone was never bricked. bricked means itll never ever work again. if your planning on using it later and using it now, then bricked is definitely not the right word to use ;-)

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] VIPNobie:
I'm planning to root my sister's Galaxy Ace but she wants to save every message, picture and contact she has on her phone. I searched it in google, but it seems that Kies only backs up the contacts and bookmarks. Can anyone help tell me what applications should I use to back up everything else?

In addition, can anyone point me to the most reliable guide in rooting Samsung Galaxy Ace?

Thanks! :D
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rkhigham:
I can see that nobody else has replied to your Q but wondered whether you had managed to find out from any other sources how to make a full back-up of the Ace as I want to do this myself too ???

As you say, Kies backs up almost nothing.

I can copy the micro-SD myself but I want to copy all the settings, etc. so that I can restore them to my replacement Ace (I want to take back to shop as it constantly freezes and switches off)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] VIPNobie:
I still haven't found any solution to our problem yet. :( I hope someone's gonna pass this thread who is knowledgeable enough to help us. :D
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] aveling007:
You can download GO SMS Pro from the Android Market to backup your texts, contacts are usually backed up automatically with your Google account. With GO SMS, you choose Menu>Settings>GO SMS Services>Backup and Restore.

Photos are on the SD card, shouldn't need to worry about them.

Once rooted, you can make a nandroid backup with ROM Manager.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jagroshan:
Hey you just wanna root your device........you can do this with super one click.

No back up is necessary as it will not remove any file or setting of your use.
[HTC Sensation] chippyuk:
Hi guys,

Received my Sensation a few days ago, purchased in the UK where I live. It seems to be an Asian version as the Language selection came up with English (Singapore). I have various options for Thai keyboard, Vietnamese IME etc....

No current issues with the phone and works fine with English (Singapore) language selected.

Question I have is will this effect any OTA updates and am I likely to come across issues or miss out on certain features etc... Being in the UK will the next OTA update be the full UK version or will I have to root the phone to get the official UK rom on it. Would there be any advantages to this....? Will I still receive updates here even though it is an Asian version. In essence what are the advantages/disadvantages if any as I can still return the phone for a refund and get hold of a UK/European version?

Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
Where did you get it from? You'll have to wait on updates for that version but other than that it should be OK
[HTC Sensation] chippyuk:
From purelygadgets. So would I be better off returning it and getting the official UK/EU version? Do updates normally come out the same time world wide and how do they differ across the regions?
[HTC Sensation] ancola66:
*OTA Update of the device based on CID >>> OTA update your version of HTC's Asia

*Because of this, that when we have Ship S-off (Super CID), you can not update via OTA anymore
[HTC Sensation] chippyuk:
Thanks, so hoping that there will be a OTA or manual S-off update I can then download and flash the UK rom? Do I have this right?
[HTC Sensation] ancola66:
All we are hoping and waiting for this:). Then we can do much more than ROM upgrade:)
[HTC Sensation] chippyuk:
Sorry for my ignorance, does this mean that the OTA update would be based on my carrier and so I would receive the UK update even though I have the Asian Rom on it now?
[HTC Sensation] ancola66:
CID its security code of the original version rom, it protection device for no other rom upgrade patches. So the original version of your device its Asia >>> only upgrades OTA Asia version even if you are in any country and any carrier
[HTC Sensation] lang_tu_syd:

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fldash:
Okay, well, I couldn't flash any of the new Sense Gingerbread releases that were pre-rooted. I'd always receive an error when it'd trash to flash boot.img. If I'd try to flash the boot.img using fastboot, I'd get this error:

FAILED (remote: image update error) ...

So, I thought I'd unroot, flash a stock RUU, then do the OTA. I thought it would fail because the boot partition has bad blocks and then, with my phone bricked from the update, I could get my phone replaced.

Unfortunately, that plan failed. All the OTAs completed fine and now I'm now 4.24.651.1 without root and anyway of getting root.

So, I guess my question is... does anyone know how these OTA updates work? Is the command it uses: write_firmware_image("PACKAGE:firmware.zip","zip"); some sort of RAW write that would ignore bad blocks?

It really stinks for me, but I suppose I can now sell my phone and get an E3D... But I don't know if I can sell it and keep my conscience sense my 4G doesn't work (lost wimax keys). So I'm thinking maybe I'll call Sprint and ask them to swap the numbers on our 2 EVOs and give my wife my stock one with bad wimax and sell hers... Will Sprint do that?

Won't Sprint give you $150.00 or something for your Evo when you trade for 3D? I'm sure Sprint can give the phone a new Wimax key when they refurbish it (or whetever it is they do with them).
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jharris0221:
Hey guys, need Some help here. I upgraded from Bamf 2.1 to Bamf 3.0 sense, and after restoring with Titanium I'm having two issues:

1, every time I restart, the phone forgets my Google account information and I have to log in

/sync again

2, the weather lockscreen now shows "no weather update available "

After several hours of searching, I found some info suggesting that it may be due to titanium restoring to the sd card. I reflashed, let Google sync, and then only restored all the green options and select althird party apps. The second time, I had changed default restore to preserve original file structure. Still no dice. I then restored "accounts" directly to internal storage. Still no dice.

This is getting very frustrating, I would love any guidance.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dak_181:
i would only re install backups for third party apps. even though your reinstalling system data with useful information, its all based from the sense 2.1 interface, and restoring it in sense 3.0 can lead to the kind of incompatibility issues your having.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jharris0221:
That makes sense (no pun intended). Thanks for the reply :-)
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keving75:
I had a lot of problems using Ti Backup when trying to switch over to a GB based ROM, and I later determined the backups were causing most if not all of them.

I would be very selective on what you backup and restore new again if your are switching between Fr and GB

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1Android:
Do you have your background data turned off? I had the same problem with my lock screen showing the weather update. It should show if you tap on the weather and manually update from the sense clock on a home screen. but if your background data is turned off it will only update every hour (thats the lowest amount of time it will allow you to update itself if data is turned off). I now just run the clock on my lock screen.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jharris0221:
No Background data was on. Pretty sure it was from restoring data through titanium. Reflashed and only restored third party, issue went away
