So I returned my my phone and got a new one. With my old one, after I tried reflashing to stock on odin witht he PIT file and everything, I just got an endless reboot loop. What could have caused that? And with my new one, all I have to do is load up ODIN and just flash this new package right? I'm going to take all the precautions I can. lol
[Verizon Droid Charge] bash_array:
Load humble 14 odin in pda section and flash... thats it.

I think i like 1.35 better :/
[Verizon Droid Charge] Stockmoose16:
I have 1.35 and the battery drain is significant. I lose about 14% per hour doing nothing with 4g activated. The lower the battery goes, the more it lags. The phone usually dies within 6 or 7 hours. How can I fix this problem?
[Verizon Droid Charge] criticalhit:
Are you in a bad 4g area? The better your signal the less power the radio uses.. and do a calibration right after a bump charge.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Stockmoose16:
I live in Los Angeles in a strong 4g area and already bump charged. The first hour of today it dropped 1%, but then it started dropping heavily. I noticed the 4G arrows are blinking quite often, even when I'm not using anything. The phone died by 2:30p after coming off the charger at 7:30a. I charged it back to 100%, and it's already down to 70% after 90 minutes, of which I made a 30 minute phone call and searched the internet for about 15 minutes. I can't explain why the phone begins to lag over time. Is there any app or setting I can use to see if the phone is constantly losing the 4G signal, an thus draining the battery?
[Verizon Droid Charge] belmore:
I'm still having calendar issues. Even with putting .bak on the AOSP calendars and taking it off the TW calendar. When i go to open the TW calendar it goes straight to force close.

calibrate your battery .... sorry to say that any rom will have significant drain with 4G... its going to be a fact of life until programs learn to use the radio correctly... this is the same thing that happened with 3g... there was about 2 solid years of people entranced with battery drain on 3g and finally the programmers caught up....

Everyone must understand that samsung and others have put a jet engine into a corvette... right now 4g lte has outpaced the hardware and programming... now battery technology and programming must catch up...
[Verizon Droid Charge] bash_array:
I finally addressed this in my upcoming fix.... hang tight... coming friday.
[Verizon Droid Charge] bash_array:
in 1.4 I messed around with some speed settings and that has had a negative impact on battery drain and phone responsiveness. The goodness of 1.35 battery savings and non laginess (if any) will be restored in the upcoming fix friday. :)
[Verizon Droid Charge] bash_array:
playing with some theme stuff... what do you think? I hand drew this in photoshop.....> Should I include this in Humble 1.42? Just a thought?

[Verizon Droid Charge] mintcookies:
hey danalo,

amazing ROM you've put together here. Thanks for fixing the in-app video streaming. Looking forward for this friday's release since there does seem to be a noticeable drain in battery life with 1.4.

Since this ROM's so focused on battery conservation, would it be possible to include darken/blacked out versions of the normal google apps (like gmail, voice, gtalk, market, etc.) Since this phone has an AMOLED screen, in theory, darken apps should save battery...

I found various blacked out/inverted google apps online and have replaced my Voice, Dropbox, gtalk, and google+ apps with them, but I cant seem to replace the new market app (vending apk) and still have it functional.
[Verizon Droid Charge] fz798:
AWESOME! Thanks so much!
[Verizon Droid Charge] fz798:
Got it! Thanks and thanked.

My CWR now indeed is blue, and indeed there's an Odin option after the blue banana. w00t.
[Verizon Droid Charge] will2live:
Suggestions for ya; using Honeycomb battery icon with colors or something like orange & black theme, yellow & black, or old school like the one done on the D1 for the drink Black & Tan. Black seems to be a good fit with the Charge IMO due to the AMOLED screen as it doesn't burn as much battery.
[Verizon Droid Charge] will2live:
I completely concur inverted black *.apks would look awesome threwout the ROM. As well as a black keyboard and transparent pulldown.
[Verizon Droid Charge] will2live:
Do you or anyone for that matter have a link handy to 1.35? I've got a bad enough battery problem due to the 4G signal and am trying to hold out til Friday and not mess with 1.4. Currently I reflashed version 1.3 I had. I tried another ROM out but no go atm as it turned into a FC nightmare out of nowhere after having it setup for 3days without issue. Anywhoo I'd like to try to get a little more current if possible but really no biggie
[Verizon Droid Charge] belmore:
Okay cool. Thanks!
[Verizon Droid Charge] mrpickem:

Is there a way that we can get Busy Box? I'm trying to use the Android ID changer to restore my original ID which requires Busy Box, but the Busy Box installer doesn't appear to work with this rom.
[Verizon Droid Charge] criticalhit:
Get titanium backup and use problems' button. It will download busybox for you
[Verizon Droid Charge] paul25rs:
Hmm. Titanium backup already says that I have it installed, but Busy Box Installer says I don't and the Android ID Changer also can't find it.
[Verizon Droid Charge] criticalhit:
Weird... idk then sorry mang
[Verizon Droid Charge] chiahead52:
I installed busybox just fine..not sure..maybe an uninstall and reinstall?
[Verizon Droid Charge] fz798:
OdinMaker also will direct you to install busybox
[Verizon Droid Charge] salto571:
Before I installed this rom I did a titanium backup of all apps and system data. I wiped data and cache and flashed in cwr and when I booted up, I let the market download all the apps on its own (I couldnt force titanium to download quicker) and then restored all missing apps and system data. Now the market straight force closes. I tried replacing the market by installing a market apk and flashing in cwr w/o wiping anything which didn't work. I know it was working before the restore so if i was to wipe again (which is probably the only way to get the market working again), is there something I should exclude from the titanium restore this time?
[Verizon Droid Charge] Cilraaz:
I hadn't had to use busybox since I loaded 1.4, so I hadn't noticed it was missing from this package. Strange, it had been in previous builds. Perhaps an oversight by Danalo that will be fixed in the next build?

salto571, restoring system data is most likely what is causing you problems. I would do a factory wipe and delete caches. Then, when you do your restore from Titanium Backup, make sure you're only restoring user apps and data.
[Verizon Droid Charge] chiahead52:
Im not 100% but I dont think a user app restore from Titanium would cause issues with the market. If you are trying to restore the system data then yes...dont ever backup/restore the system data only the User Apps
[Verizon Droid Charge] bash_array:
Glad you were detailed in your description of what you did because for sure your problem is that you restored system data which just deleted everything that you just installed with 1.4.....NEVER restore system data. Just restore your missing apps. The data associated with your apps will go along with it,.... NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER restore system data with titanium unless you are on the exact same rom....
[Verizon Droid Charge] bash_array:
good looking out!! yes an oversight indeed!!! Thank you Thank you !!!! :D
[Verizon Droid Charge] epionx111:
hmm... interesting,

my device hit about 35C (while in standbye or scren off) and battery dropped about 13% in 20 minutes.

any body else experience this?
[Verizon Droid Charge] fz798:
I've tried a couple clock widgets (want an alarm) and any that call the default alarm don't do anything when clicked.... did I inadvertently whack an APK that I needed, or is it just missing from Humble?

(I deleted the TW stuff and stock launcher, using LPP if that helps figure out what's wrong)

Edit: Found the answer... http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=14640704&postcount=5

Need the clock.zip posted in that thread.

Danalo, can you bake the clock back in for the next release please?
[Verizon Droid Charge] fz798:
Alarm works like a champ after applying the clock.zip!
[Verizon Droid Charge] SlickNashville:
Total Noob, first root and ROM completed

After reading for days, I finally got the nerve to Root my Samsung Charge last night using ODIN 1.3, loaded Altered Beast Rom.

It came with CWM (red text not yellow) and VooDoo. I can see the lagfix worked, scored over 1500 on Quadrant. I know how to disable it.

It is my understanding this Humble 1.4 is also a Voodoo lagfix kernel and i don't have to disable it to install this. Is this correct?

I also understand I can install Humble 1.4 using either ODIN or CWM.

What are the differences or advantages to either install and do either require the disabling of lagfix?

I also see a wipe/factory reset is preferred, but it looks as though some people successfully installed without this..will this casue a phone to brick? or is it just preferred to get a cleaner install?

Also, clearing the Delvin-Cache? Is this also required or does the factory reset data wipe eliminate the need for that......

I know I may have asked too many questions in one posting, but maybe yall won't be too hard on me.

Thanks for any assistance, my goal in trying this ROM is getting as stable as possible with no loss of funtion or features, from what I have read, this is the one to try....
[Verizon Droid Charge] criticalhit:
Okay... what I would do I go get imnuts latest voodoo kernel and flash it with cwr. That will give you the latest kernel and latest cwr. (Blue not yellow or red)

Then download the cwr ver of humble. Personally I would wait till the new humble comes out on friday. Or if you can wait till later I can get you 1.35. And cwr that after clearing cache files and factory reset. If you are coming from another rom you need to do a factory reset. DO NOT flash a diff rom without doing this. You DO NOT need to dissable lagfix if you are going to another lagfix kernel.
[Verizon Droid Charge] criticalhit:
And yes clear dalvik.
[Verizon Droid Charge] salto571:
Thanks for getting back to me so quick danalo. Just to confirm: under the restore section there is restore missing apps and all system data, restore all apps with data, and restore missing apps with data. I want to select the second one right? because that one isnt system data but should take care of the all the missing apps and data for those apps and all the data for the apps that the market will automatically download. sorry for being long winded but I said you liked detail :-P
[Verizon Droid Charge] chiahead52:
Restore missing Apps with data is my choice..
[Verizon Droid Charge] Tucknology:
I am humbled.

Hi Everyone, thanks for all your great posts. I flashed from stock EE4 to Humble 1.4 using Odin two days ago, and I haven't had any problems. Everything runs smooth except the already mentioned known issues.

Danalo, I'd like to ask very nicely for a change to the background of the pulldown menu. The diagonal lines make the text and buttons on certain notifications hard to read.

I have one question: I'd like to use Heimdall, but I'm not sure what to do with the CP_Modem and LTE_Modem files because Heimdall only has one spot for a modem file (see attached image). Any help much appreciated.

In the end, I used Odin3 v1.85 and it worked fine with the Humble 1.4 ODIN.
[Verizon Droid Charge] criticalhit:
Uh oh... having a weird battery issue.. no new apps or usage changes.. same place I was yesterday same signal strength. 10% or more loss per hour. Check battery stats seems normal ... wonder what's going on.
[Verizon Droid Charge] will2live:
I've had the same exact thing happen to me at times. Seems to happen on any ROM for that matter and I've yet to ever figure out why. The only conclusion I've come to is network issues. Iv'e noticed a few times where I have strong signal normally that all of a sudden on a given day it goes to crap. Like I've woken the screen up and it will be on 3G, few mins later it will go to 1X, then grab LTE again for a bit and switch back to 3G. That all said I really believe the biggest battery drain we are all seeing is mostly coming from network issues and has nothing to do with the ROMs or app we have installed. In all honesty it wouldn't surprise me. I remember when they started rolling 3G out battery life was terrible on most devices for a long time until the mfg & carriers got there network,devices, and software tweaked correctly.
[Verizon Droid Charge] paul25rs:
Is anyone using the extended battery with this rom?

The reason that I'm asking is because I'm having a weird issue to get the extended battery to charge to 100%. If I leave the phone plugged in overnight, the phone charges to 100%. Then if I unplug it and plug it back in immediately it stays at 99% for about an hour and then if I unplug it and plug it back in again, it goes to 99% for another half an hour. I have to do this every morning to fill the battery up. This is with a full battery calibration. I'm guessing that this is more of an issue with the extended battery and the phone more than anything else, but it is starting to get annoying to have to bump charge it every morning.

Should BT commands work in this ROM? I am using a Blueant headset that activates the phones built in voice commands. It did not appear to work correctly. I was not sure if this was a feature that was removed or if I had an install issue?
[Verizon Droid Charge] lattosimbaste:
Had the same issue last couple of versions and finally found VoiceDialer.apk.bak in /system/app and clipped the bak off, rebooted, and fired up the VoiceDialer application which magically appeared. After that I have bluetooth voice dialing. Hope it helps!
[Verizon Droid Charge] tkm20:
What do you guys use to calibrate the battery? BatteryCalibration app? Or just wipe the battery stats from cwr?
[Verizon Droid Charge] Stockmoose16:
still having battery problems

I'm on humble 1.35 and am still having battery problems, to the tune of 14%/hr draining with the screen off and the only background data being used is to receive approximately 10 emails/hr and stock market updates.

The drop is heavier on 4g, but my buddy, who has the same phone has 4g on all day and still has 31% battery left after 14 hrs unplugged. My phone died after about 9 hrs unplugged. He's on stock, i'm on humble rom.

What is going on that causes such a serious drain for me on 4g while he barely loses anything at all? Is there any app that detects if the network is jumping on and off 4g during the day?
[Verizon Droid Charge] criticalhit:
It may be lagfix... I disabled it about 5 hours ago and I am having awesome battery life again. I also have no lag at all.. lol.
[Verizon Droid Charge] paul25rs:
I think the bump charge and then wiping battery stats was ultimately what gave me the extra bump in battery life. Charge to 100%// Power off// Charge to 100%// Turn back on (repeat as often as it takes to get the battery to full immediately after you unplug and plug back in) and then to reboot to recovery and wiping battery stats and then allowing the battery to drain out completely before fully recharging the battery. If you do this correctly, you should notice a huge increase in battery life. The other thing that I noticed that killed battery life is going in and out of 4g/3g range. The battery runs super hot and drains like a mofo.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Stockmoose16:
I've already bump charged and recalibrated the battery several times. Tonight, I turned the phone on Wifi only to take 4g out of the equation and it still drained at about 8%/hr. Not terrible, but still not very good. As I said, my buddy has the stock rom installed and keeps it on 4g all day, and gets about 14 hours+ of use without recharging. With this ROM, I'd be lucky to get 11 hours, and that's if I stick to Wifi only and don't do any browsing or phone calls.
[Verizon Droid Charge] mpantig:
I'm still a newb at this stuff but the guides on recalibrating batteries never seemed to make total sense to me.

It's my impression that the battery data is preventing the battery from being fully charged, right? If so, then why would it be cleared only when the battery indicator incorrectly displays 100%? Wouldn't it make sense to clear it before it hits 100% just to make sure it does not prematurely stop the charging? Then after the battery is topped off with bump charging, reset the battery calibration again?
[Verizon Droid Charge] Ted A:
Ask your buddy how many dBm of signal strength he gets on his phone and compare it with yours. I suspect you're getting weaker signal, causing your phone to boost it up more than his.
[Verizon Droid Charge] will2live:
I use both myself. However I don't us BatteryCalibration until after I bump charge it at least once or twice. Then after doing it I'll boot directly into CWR and wipe stats again quick.
[Verizon Droid Charge] AndroidCraig:
I've got a couple of questions around this. I am on Humble 1.4, it sounds like you are saying that I can flash the new imnuts voodoo kernel over my existing system without having to disable lagfix. Correct?

Will the new version of Humble coming out Friday have the new voodoo kernel baked in? Should I wait till that drops before I reflash the imnuts kernel?
[Verizon Droid Charge] Kiwikicker:
Gmail?

I may have skipped over it, but is anyone else having the actual gmail app fc? I can only use the email app to check my email...maybe its just me.

I'm using humble 1.4 with no extra stuff or themes
[Verizon Droid Charge] criticalhit:
Disable lagfix. Im telling you. If you don't have bloatware you wont notice any lag. And you will get that extra 4 or 5 hrs of battery back.
[Verizon Droid Charge] criticalhit:
Yes YOU CAN flash a voodoo kernel over another without disabled lagfix. Just get the newest kernel now and flash with cwr. Then flash the new friday humble with cwr when it comes out.. why wait? Have a snickers.
[Verizon Droid Charge] PROFLYER:
What's considered bloatware? I'm thinking about disabling lagfix as my battery is at half by 11 if I unplug at 630.

Also, what are you guys using for visual voice mail? I stripped the .bak from the vm apps that are standard and have it back but I'm wondering if there's a better way.

Does someone want to post up a sticky or link me to a sticky for this phone/rom of what you use for txts/vm/browser/clock/weather etc.?? I like all of those features and really miss the weatherbug clock/weather that was stock.

Thanks gents!
[Verizon Droid Charge] criticalhit:
Anything touchwiz or samsung is bloatwear lol... get youmail from the market. Uses like no resources and its free.. just like vvm. And the stock greeting is cool says " sorry (callers name), (your name) is not avaliable" it checks vmail only after a call so its not syncing all day..

Humble 135, imnuts non oc kernel (710), stock msgr, beautiful widget weather, clockr evolution, youmail, dolphin mini.
[Verizon Droid Charge] :
Google Voice > Youmail.

There's a way to set it up on Verizon, reply if you need help
[Verizon Droid Charge] PROFLYER:
I do need help, I have google voice and I thought was synced but apparently not...
[Verizon Droid Charge] :
If you want to get it working on Verizon, go to voice.google.com, sign in , and the top right hit google voice settings, and set it up from there. it'll ask for your provider and number, then it will have you dial a number on your phone like X70BLAHBLAHBLAH, and it should work
[Verizon Droid Charge] PROFLYER:
Works great! Eat that verizon.
[Verizon Droid Charge] criticalhit:
Danalo, can you maybe include the camera mod app in the friday release? Its awesome to have a hardware camera button.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Stockmoose16:
I went to disable voodoo lagfix, and even though it is supposed to be enabled by default, it was already disabled. So lagfix doesn't appear to have an impact.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Stockmoose16:
We live together, so that part shouldn't make much of a difference. We do work at different places.

But even when I use wifi instead of 4G, I'm still draining much quicker than him. Shouldn't the dbm only come into play if I'm on the 3g or 4g network?
[Verizon Droid Charge] will2live:
If you are seeing that in CWR don't. It displays incorrectly whetehr it is enabled or disabled. To know for sure if it is active you need to either use Voodoo control to check, or go into terminal emulator on your device and type su first which will change the $ symbol to a # after that type Mount and press enter and see if it shows RFS or EXT4 on the 3 or 4th line. I forget which it is.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Stockmoose16:
I was using cwm. I downloaded voodoo control and Lagfix Debug is disabled, but it says ext4 lagfix is enabled. Do I want to disable this? And if so, what's the appropriate way to accomplish this?

[Verizon Droid Charge] thizzmaster:
how do you toggle the voodoo lagfix/system lagfix?
[Verizon Droid Charge] twistedlim:
U have to boot to recovery.
[Verizon Droid Charge] bash_array:
great idea... try it and lemme know
[Verizon Droid Charge] IncrediblyDroid:
Do we have to flash via odin? I already have root and cwm with the voodoo kernel. Is there a zip file to flah cwm? What are your future plans for this rom? Nice clean rom.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Serinety:
this will flash the new Clockwork recovery, and this is already rooted with lagfix enabled.

basicly.. after you flash this, it will reboot, convert file system then boot to CWM recovery

once in recovery just follow the OP. Wipe all , including battery stats then reboot

do the standard battery calibration and your set.
[Verizon Droid Charge] thizzmaster:
sorry im new to this comping from the epic there wasnt an option for a lagfix toggle in the recovery, is there one on this?
[Verizon Droid Charge] midwest9mm:
my opinion on this ROM and many others... leave all the crap that YOU think is awesome OFF. Some people don't want drop box, ubermusic, or LAUNCHER PRO. Why not just debloat it and leave it alone man? Cant we get a streamlined froyo without bloat of ANYKIND and a stock andoid looking UI is that too much to ask for? End rant.

Oh and the 1600 quadrant score is BS. More like 970 :mad:
[Verizon Droid Charge] Keighles:
Its not that hard to remove the apps you don't care for. Everyone has there own opinion on what is and is not bloatware. The OP did an excellent job on this rom, be greatful he was willing to put his personal time into working on it.

Oh and my quadrant score was 1659. Running voodoo.
