+1 to inspired ace and much better battery life than stock.
[HTC Inspire 4G] tweaked:
Last time I went battery for awhile; See attached.

Granted 9 hours of that I was asleep as was the phone but the rest was me playing games, reading, downloading apps, browsing listening to music using stereo bluetooth.

Rom is in the Sig.
[HTC Inspire 4G] elijahpr:
Gingerbeast does have awesome battery life. I reverted back to RCMix3D only cause I missed it, and I get about 10-18 hours out of my battery on that one.
[HTC Inspire 4G] crip:
+1 on the RCMix,, cant say its much longer,, but it is good for a 8 hr wrk day..
[HTC Inspire 4G] dschreiber69:
+1 for inspired ace rom - battery is great and so is the performance increase!
[HTC Inspire 4G] Oathdynasty:
That is word for word what I do...

And it is amazing. I highly recommend this.
[HTC Inspire 4G] nhshah7:
gingerbeast has been ridiculously awesome for me on battery life. with moderate to heavy use, i get 12-18 hours of use a day
[HTC Inspire 4G] stretch0r:
I have used HoneySense and LeeDroid, I have found that LeeDroid's kernel MUCH better than both HoneySense and the stock when it comes to battery life. In the end, it all depends on what you want, when you want alot of bells and whistles on all the time, your battery life will suffer, if you are more minimalist, you battery life will be much better
[HTC Inspire 4G] audiophan:
So far I've been one of those 'bells and whistles' people, and even on VU1.27 which I assume is pretty efficient I only get 8-9hrs. Surprising the biggest user has been voice calls, which will suck the battery dry in 2-3hrs if you have a couple long conversations.
[HTC Inspire 4G] g3ismeee:
I have noticed once the Dialer is used, it seems to keep eating battery if I don't restart. I'm not sure if this is the ROM or android in general though...
[HTC Inspire 4G] audiophan:
Glad I'm not the only one. Just assumed it was a radio issue.
[Acer Iconia A500] newtonfb:
I plug my controller in the usb slot and it just keeps blinking. How do i get it to play with emulators?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ardealul:
I want to root my sgs 2. Before doing that, i want to dump the currently stock rom so that i will be able to use odin to revert back afterwards if i need to.

How do i do that (no root/busybox/etc installed yet...pure stock)?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pulser_g2:
Tell us versions and country and carrier.

It will already be posted by Intratech in one of his threads
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leeyming:
hei, I need to know the answer too. :)

i have pure stock now..

XWKF1
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ardealul:
i found the dumps created by intratech and my version/carrier is there but i want to know how to dump it myself so that i am 100% sure that i revert to the exact rom/partitioning/etc
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lafrontera:
Up!

I have the same need.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geekaren:
Intratech *only* posts official firmware versions, so you should not encounter any problems if you download/save/re-flash the firmware he's uploaded (that matches your original firmware CSC, kernel, etc).

Also, you don't want to mess with the partition when you flash a firmware using Odin. The instructions Intratech has provided are detailed but easy enough to follow for a beginner.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] techjunkieza:
I would like to know this as well because Intratech was not able to find a version of my stock ROM yet.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] desean:
I would like to know how as well. Would like to "backup" the stock version before rooting with VR as I just got my SGS2 tonight :p

These are my phone's firmware:

PDA: I9100XWKF1

MODEM/PHONE: I9100DXKF1

CSC: I9100OLBKE5

I saw intratech's thread and there is the stock firmware for XWKF1 but the version for the MODEM and CSC are different from mine. Hope to create an exact backup before rooting.

Appreciate any advice. Thank you.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mbroeders:
You can find your firmware on Samfirmware.com. Anyway, this is your stock firmware. :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djyoshii:
So i take it no one knows how to make a dump of the stock ROM? As i would really like to know how to do this myself as well.

I had a look at Intratech's thread, and found a matching ROM of mine but i don't know which CSC version to get?

Mine says I9100YOGKE1, and there is no CSC there with YOG at all, even under different ROMS.

*confused*
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cosmic Blue:
you can use odin to make a dump of your rom, bottom right corner is the dump button.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Intratech:
It's there though and has been there for a while. It's even on it's own under XWKF1: http://www.multiupload.com/U95BI5QVDL

It's there now. :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] techjunkieza:
I used Nandroid from the CWM kernel to backup my ROM. The reason I used the plain CWM kernel is because it would not affect any of the files on my ROM (as it is not pre-rooted like the CF-root kernel so it won't add any symlinks or excutables) and after restoring the backup, I can just flash the original kernel again. By doing that it will be stock again. Oh, and I have a jig to reset the counter.

I think the best solution is trying some custom Roms, some greatly improve the battery life.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] lightswitch2159:
How far of a brick can NVflash fix? Soft, or a hard brick, such as a bad bootloader.

I believe hard bricking.

Is it contacting the tab through JTAG?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ezlxq73:
My Nook Color runs fine with CM7 7.0.3 stable and Dalingrin OC kernel 042411, but 802.1x EAP Wifi doesn't work. (Neither does AutoProxy, but that is another story.)

Changing to Dalingrin 040411 solves the 802.1x problem, but the CM7 boot animation disappears and my Nook is slow to boot. The comments in the main Dalingrin discussion thread suggest performance is best using 042411 with 7.0.3, yet Wifi 802.1x is broken.

So questions:-

* anyone else with the same problems, or is it just me (which would suggest I've made a simple mistake somewhere?)

* is 042411 the last pre CM 7.1 kernel? (which means the above problem will not be fixed against 7.0.3?)

* Quote: "2.6.29 releases are discontinued and no longer supported" which ones are these exactly? With the exception of /051311/update-Froyo1.2-dalingrin-2.6.32-emmc-051311.zip the kernels have _dates_ not build numbers?!?

* is my best bet to go to CM7.1 RC0 and the latest Dalingrin kernel? Has anyone else got 802.1x working with this or a similar combination?

Sorry for all the questions. I feel like I am assembling a jigsaw puzzle without the illustration on the box...

Thanks
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dohturdima:
Yeah, my wifi is broken with the latest nightly and kernel. Waiting for a response in the main daligrin thread
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ezlxq73:
I've solved the problems, although I still don't know all the answers to my questions.

I've switched to CM7 7.1.0 RC1 with Dalingrin OC 063011 and Wifi 802.1x is working fine. So far so good!
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pault949:
Yeah... I had the same issues and had to do exactly what you did... so far so good.
[HTC EVO 3D] upperkingjr:
I traded my yellow screen EVO for a new white one and after using it for a few days it looks like my new one is turning yellow. The only thing I can think of is its the sun and heat turning it yellow since I do put it on a dash mount where the sun shines on it...
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
If that is true I bet it's the parallax barrier...

...though I have my doubts.
[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
Direct sunlight will always **** a phone screen up if left in the heat :D just don't leave the face in direct heat :)
[HTC EVO 3D] mattfmartin:
Can you post a pic if this so called yellow screen

Sent from my 3rd Dimension of Evolution
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
there's a thread from lastnight with a video that illustrates it very clearly
[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
My screen is fine and sexy so far tho I never leave a phone in direct sunlight or u will have issues.
[HTC EVO 3D] DataDork:
LOL.. my phone was right out the box in the store that day and it was a night and day difference.. it may be a factor tho.. who knows.. but today my buddy just opened his and damn his was brighter than mine lol.. i swear i dont know whats going on..

just to effen weird.. i give up!
[HTC EVO 3D] fdavila17:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fjankie:
Use the search function and search for "battery drain", make sure you have a lot of time to read through all the treads that show up in the search result.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eeebbr:
also you can try go from stock rom

also you can try to switch rom but check about the warranty issues. some of the rom makes a big difference.

for example the infusion that is being updated every couple of days and is great!

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NZgeek:
There are known battery issues with the currently-available firmware, but nothing as bad as what you're describing. I manage to get 2 days on a charge, syncing several accounts over WiFi and using the phone to read email.

The first thing you should do is make sure you're running the latest firmware for your phone. Install Samsung Kies and plug your phone in, and if there's a newer firmware it should prompt you to upgrade.

If you're still having issues, there may be some bit of software that you're running that's using too much power. At a home screen hit your Menu button > Settings > About phone (bottom of list) > Battery usage. This will tell you what things are using your battery. You can tap on any of the listed items to get more information. If the item is an application you will have the option to Force stop it, which may help.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arz:
i have exactly the same issue. as soon as i turn on the screen i can watch the battery drain. yesterday i managed to lose 10% in about 10 minutes...everything off except wi-fi and the internet browser... i'm thinking about sending it back for warranty. i get about 7-8 hours on a charge.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eeebbr:
i think you should try isolating which app is the problematic one.

stop the internet,and put on power saving mode.

then go to battery usage and see which program is using your battery.

also, you need to go to running services and see which one you dont need and try to stop freeze or uninstall them.

it would probably help.

upgrade your firmware.

for example the indian firmware KE8 was horrible battery wise.make sure you update it(through kies or odin)
[HTC Inspire 4G] mcslamer:
Sorry if this question is already up but I didn't see any like this so I was just wondering if I update my inspire 4g to the update in htc wifi update would it take away my root?
[HTC Inspire 4G] XAviierG:
It will not update even if you try
[HTC Inspire 4G] mcslamer:
Thanks for the info but can you tell my why this is?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
Most likely because official updates look for files on the target device to be identical to the files they are trying to update. If they find a discrepancy, they won't proceed to update the file.
[HTC Inspire 4G] mcslamer:
Thanks!
[Verizon Droid Charge] distortedloop:
You've been nothing but a MOST VALUABE ASSET to the Charge community here on xda.

All this drama...sigh.

Thanks for all you've done for us, and hopefully will continue to do for us.
[Verizon Droid Charge] dragonstalker:
Imnuts. my first post on this Charge forum was offering help and you pretty much bashed me instead of clearing stating, Thanks for offering, but we already have that. And with everything i still support your work because i know what it takes to put out the work that you do. You can look at my profile and know that which i know you have. For the others that seem to have mixed feelings on the rest. Its all relative . Our work is our own and just want recognition. Should your recovery be included in his leak. YES. makes it easier for the user to flash. Should he have asked you. YES. Should he charge for a leak. HECK NO. Should he have shunned you off when you offered help.. Probably not.

As for the rest of the community. If you don't code. Please just take it for face value and get the release when it's put into the Dev forum. Don't pay for codes because you want it early. If you just want a leak because it's the newest thing and bragging rights. Download Linux install it on your computer and compile the code like we do. Its sad when there are threads like this because it hurts the forum. There is no , i repeat NO, productivity in arguing on the forum. There is an IRC chat for getting together and getting the roms stable and released to the public.

My thoughs and should just be taken as such.

Thank you to the Devs that have put out custom Roms., Imnuts thank you for your Recovery.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Kazba1626:
I agree with inuts especially since recently P3droid has shown that he doesn't have the ability to act like an adult (fascinate leak where he had his hissy fit). The guy is just looking more and more like a petty jerk in my opinion.
[Verizon Droid Charge] TheBadBen:
P3Droid seems to have taken his ball and gone home. Who cares. Let him play with himself...
[Verizon Droid Charge] bhfd64:
So I watched the Fascinate leak fiasco unfold firsthand as a Fassy owner...then come here to look for something debloated for my friend's Charge and see this. Everywhere I turn is some sort of jackassery on behalf of p3douche.
[Verizon Droid Charge] siphyn:
I'll vouch for imnuts being a good dev. I've pm'd him numerous times in the last with questions on kernels and odexing and he's always gotten back to me in a timely matter with good advice. As far as P3Droid goes, when I had a Droid X he seemed to treat the community well. I'm not sure what all happened with the fascinate community as I didnt get the details of what happened there. Anyway, thanks for your side of the story imnuts. Hopefully everyone can put all this drama behind and hopefully we will see more Charge leaks in the future.
[Verizon Droid Charge] >DARKMAN<:
Way to go Imnuts!

Keep up all the great things you do for the charge community, we need you.

Thanks for everything and for being the bigger man and explaining yourself.
[Verizon Droid Charge] yyhd:
Imnuts, sorry for all the crap going down in your life now. The last you need is internet forum drama.

You have been so awesome to our community, and your work is very much valued.

Please keep up the excellent work, and know that your real community does support you and understand that you do have a life outside of all this.

I am in no way connect to what has happened, let alone even knew about it. But nonetheless, I will send another small donation your way (when I get home) to show my appreciation for the devoplers!
[Verizon Droid Charge] trebores1:
Hey imnuts. Without your work there would be nothing to play around with on the charge. Thanks and please don't let this discourage you from continued development on the charge. 99.99% of us appreciate your work, don't let p3droid get you down.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Homestar1217:
I haven't messed with this phone too much, but it seems like every time I read about something new your name is mentioned imnuts. I know that when I get the nerve to change some things I can count on your work. It sucks that people don't really quite get the whole Open Source thing. Hope people start realizing what that's actually about and I hope you continue your awesome development on this phone as I'm stuck with it for 2 years now!
[HTC Sensation] brian85:
For the first week, I could do a fast swipe across my home screen to get it spinning. Worked 100% of the time. As of yesterday, it literally no longer recognizes these swipes. It won't move at all, or sometimes it will think I clicked on an app instead of swiping.

Same thing applies to the lock screen. I have to slowly bring up the ring to unlock. Extremely irritating.

What saddens me is this happened on my first phone as well after about a week (exchanged that phone because of dust). Looks like it wasn't just that phone. :(
[HTC Sensation] jlevy73:
Same thing happened to me. Seems like after a week things get funky. Probably just some crappy software coding because the Evo3d doesn't have that problem at all.
[HTC Sensation] brian85:
Hopefully that OTA coming out fixes the problem, or else I might return it for good and wait on another phone.
[HTC Sensation] idavid_:
I had it for 9 days. No problems with touchscreen. And check the "touchscreen not responsive" thread for possible solution

Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e
[HTC Sensation] CB620:
No issues yet. I only get the spinning effect here and there but I have to swipe fast.
[HTC Sensation] bikeandestroyx:
Mine was like this from the start and I couldn't unlock the screen 75% of the time. Yesterday for no reason my screen is normal and the lockscreen works every time.
[HTC Sensation] secano:
Same thing happened to me last week. Thought it was because I had installed a bunch of apps, but it wasn't that. What I did was I cleaned the phone with a cloth (inside & out) and VIOLA, it started swiping fast again.
[HTC Sensation] Paging Dr B:
Seems like a grounding issue, but we don't exactly know what's causing the problem. It works sometimes, doesn't work others.
[HTC Sensation] brian85:
This really sucks. Just the other day I could get it to spin with one swipe. It's impossible to do with any amount of swipes now.
[HTC Sensation] SensationalAdrian:
I have to double swipe to get it to work. I have to kill all the running processes in the quick settings first.
[HTC Sensation] crisisinthecity:
What's the point of the carousel super spin? Mine doesn't do it unless I hit it just right, but in my eyes its a total novelty.
[HTC Sensation] mikea3000:
How did you clean it inside? Outside i can understand, inside i'm a bit confused?
[HTC Sensation] samnada:
Agree, not just useless but a waste of time if you trigger it accidentally. Sense REALLY needs a "performance" setting that disables all the animation crap, like Windows has. That sliding home screen after unlocking is also really silly. I want snap, not spins and gradual fades. If they want to make everyone happy they need to maximize customization.
[HTC Sensation] secano:
Responsiveness
[HTC Sensation] PrisonerOfDoom:
I'm on my 2nd Sensation and after a week with the second one I am experiencing the unlock issue. I think I'm going to exchange for a SGS4G. Sucks because I absolutely love the phone otherwise.
[HTC Sensation] brian85:
I just use it as a way to make sure my screen is still responsive. I couldn't care less about anything else about it.
[HTC Sensation] nugzo:
Yes we all agree that the effect itself is not important. But it shows the responsiveness of the touchscreen. If you cant get it to spin, your phone feels like ass when you swipe things.Well hell not just swiping, anything touch related. I removed my sim card, battery and SD card to take it back and exchange it and all of a sudden it started working great. Has been flawless for the past few days, real happy! until today.. I left it on the roof of my car and it hit the road at about 55 and got ran over multiple times. I couldn't find it when i went back to try and save my sim for the trusty N1 but my Bluetooth earpiece came on when in the vicinity and i actually got a phone call when i was waiting to cross the road to pick up the carcass. Had to use the BT though unlocking on the screen would slice your fingers open. So now i'm back to a non responsive touchscreen! DAMMIT! :D I finished it off prying it open to get the sim, battery and SD card out. Asurion replacement to be here Friday.
[HTC Sensation] fiestaterp90:
I had the same problem after three weeks of the touch screen working perfectly. I followed the instructions in the touch screen issues thread and it fixed it!. I didn't even wait an hour like it said. Turn off your phone, take the battery out, put the back cover back on, hold the pet button for like 15 seconds then Open it up and put the battery back in and turn it on. Worked for me!
[HTC Sensation] kurtis.austin2:
That process didn't work at all for me. Left the battery out for just over an hour. All screen issues of being unresponsive are still there. No fast scrolling and lockscreen issue getting quite bad. Can't get carousel at all anymore. And it takes about 5 tries to unlock lockscreen.
[HTC Sensation] tenbeau:
I might try this but what is the Pet button?:confused:
[HTC Sensation] smashpunks:
This happened on 2 of mine. Really sucks when trying to play games.
[HTC Sensation] nugzo:
same here. The battery issue alone didnt work for me. I did a bunch of things and i dont know which one did it but it came back better, faster stronger. I removed Sim, removed my SD card and re-installed the 8gb, wiped everything down (contacts) removed case and ran naked and installed ruu from computer. It was perfect after that. The reason i mentioned the case is because some people say this problem is a grounding issue and not using a case may help. You may try all of this 100 times and it might not work, or it might work the first time. I know it sounds stupid, some steps sound real stupid, just trying to give all the details so we can figure this out.i :confused:
[HTC Sensation] kurtis.austin2:
I have the gel case from T-Mobile. But it is off when I'm at home and I still have the issue with no case on. I have done a factory rest and have removed the SIM and SD cards .. none of that has worked either. Just getting worse.
[HTC Sensation] brian85:
So I did a factory set and when the lock screen came up I tried to unlock it and same thing (not recognizing fast swipes). So I took off my case and did it again, and it recognized it instantly.

Hmm...
[HTC Sensation] brian85:
Well now today I can get the homescreens spinning with one finger swipe. Weird.
[HTC Sensation] kurtis.austin2:
Same here brian.. the carousel effect is working fine now. I don't get it.
[HTC Sensation] pas21:
I am having the same problem. Phone is not recognizing fast swipes, lock screen issues and general lagginess. I sometimes have to hit end call three times to end the call.

Just a few minutes ago however, I was able to get the screens to spin again. I did not make any changes to the phone.

Very weird...
[HTC Sensation] Tlnt60:
This might sound crazy... But it looks to be working

So I refuse to wipe my phone and reinstall everything, but I read somewhere that if you swipe out the factory charger with another one it might work. So I figured what the hell and swapped chargers with my girlfriend, she has a nexus 4g, and kinda crazy, but I haven't had touch screen issues since...

Just a thought, or action I guess :D
[HTC Sensation] brian85:
You know what....my phone didn't start acting up until I used the car charger for the first time. Hmm...
[HTC Sensation] aw1974:
Yep the car charger did my phone in too.
[HTC Sensation] a4ol:
Guys, I had the same problem until I switched over to Samsung car and wall chargers. no issuse since... I am positive this is related.
[HTC Sensation] graffixnyc:
I think he meant the power button.
