ok how can you tell if your phone is going in to deep sleep ?

[HTC EVO 3D] Neo3D:
did u download the app? it's pretty self explanatory.

how u test it is, you reset the timer, then turn the display off...wait a few minutes, turn it on and see if the cpu was in deep sleep.
[HTC EVO 3D] mprunty:
After using the program they are suggesting to see if your phone is deep sleeping, u recommend you getting "autostart " (if rooted) so you can disable those apps from running on their own. I use that app and I get roughly 20-24 hours of battery life before needing to recharge.

Hello,

I'm a newbie. I installed CPU spy - it appears that much of the time my phone is in a deep sleep. Now what?
[HTC EVO 3D] Rippley05:
This isn't always true. While I had excellent battery life on cm6.... Cm7 never got close to sense roms on my evo. It's really a ymmv thing...

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tratz:
I recently picked up a new galaxy tab 10.1 while on a trip to the US. (Can't seem to get it in Canada yet).

Anyway, I can't help but notice that the distance units are always in imperial, which I find annoying. Most of the suggestions I've found say to change the language settings, but this doesn't work. I set it to English (UK) and nothing changed. I even tried French and noticed that maps starting using a comma for the decimal point ( ie. 0,6 mi), but still wouldn't use km.

Any suggestions? Maybe I have to get a Google maps .apk originally intended for another country?

Thanks
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kyle005:
the maps app automatically uses the standard mesurement of the country you start your directions in.

Ex:

California to washington - miles

BC to Ontario - km

California to BC - miles

BC to California - km
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tratz:
Hmm, when I ask for directions this is the case; directions from my location to another place in Canada it's in km. BUT if I simply click on a place on the map, or pull up a listing, or get latitude info it still always shows 'x.x mi in y direction'.

I guess it's still in some sort of default imperial mode. I'd love to change that.

Hey guys, I was just curious to know if there is any way to root the DI2 with the OTA Gingerbread update.

If there isn't at the time, will there be a way in the future?

Thanks in advance,

Gingerbread breaks all if the known exploits for root. This is for all phones, not just the incredible 2. No software is perfect and I am sure an exploit will eventually be found, I suspect a downgrade to froyo method then root method will be found first.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sk0t:
If you're wanting to root, and you're OTA, you might try the RUU for Froyo that's floating around. I don't know if it will work with S-ON phones though, I've only tested it on mine which was S-OFF, and it didn't return it to S-ON.

could you link the RUU to froyo?

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] michaelbsheldon:
downgrade no go

I took the leaked GB maybe 10 days ago and really like it.

Am S-On.

Tried the Froyo downgrade zip, and it starts, runs a bit, and

stops, saying downgrade of software Not Possible. Then

only choice is reboot phone.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sk0t:
I was afraid of that. Gotta be a way around it, but I wouldn't have the foggiest idea where to begin.

[Xperia Play General] deadpixels:
Hello all, this is my first post as I've just discovered this site. Loving it so far!

I'm new to Android, as I sold my iPhone 4 for an Xperia Play (couldn't resist the controller) :D

Anyway, I'm trying to install a custom rom, I rooted the phone no problem but I keep encountering errors when trying to install the rom here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1128216

Where I get confused is in the tutorial:

I'm happy to admit I'm a complete noob with android, so could someone with more experience please go into more depth with the instructions?

For example:

When I unzip the 7z file there's no file called that there, just update.zip and boot.img.

Does this mean that a recovery mode is installed when the kernel is installed or would I need to install a recovery mode beforehand?

Any help is appreciated, I really want to install this custom rom!!

Thanks in advance! :D
[Xperia Play General] Nhialor:
Boot into fastboot, type fastboot flash boot boot.img then boot into recovery and install from sd the update.zip
[Xperia Play General] deadpixels:
Okay, I've tried that and I get the error:

assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "zeus"

getprop("ro.build.product") == "zeus"

etc...

E:Error in /sdcard/update.zip

(Status 7)

Installation aborted

Any ideas whats causing it?
[Xperia Play General] Nhialor:
when it checks device compatability it fails, a lot of us are having htat problem, don't worry, ver 14 should fix it
[Xperia Play General] deadpixels:
Awesome, glad to know it wasn't something I did. Any idea when v.14 might come out? I've literally only discovered the site so I have no concept how often it gets updated :D

Many thanks!

Edit: new problem, I'm trying to flash the old boot.img but keep getting this error:

(bootloader) S1 partID 0x00000003, block 0x00000280-0x0

FAILED (remote: Image won't fit, partition too small!)

The only reason I want to revert is because my wifi has stopped working, so if anyone knows how to fix that instead please let me know!

And no, im an idiot and didn't make a backup :(
[Xperia Play General] Logseman:
Use the 2.3.3 FTF with Flashtool, it will bring your phone back to the standard UK version.
[Xperia Play General] deadpixels:
Quick update, successfully flashed the generic firmware back and everything's working fine, however I'm having problems with the built-in games (Bruce Lee, Star Battalion etc)

I'm thinking it might have something to do with the modified boot.img I flashed, if so would anyone know where I could find a generic version I could flash?

If not, does anyone know what might be causing it?

Thanks again, and sorry for the noobish questions! :D

Something incorporated into themes these days is causing the media scan to erase photo files. Please consult with Mystery as it doesn't occur on stock SRF or Emotionless Beast Resurrected. Thanks!
[Epic 4G Themes] jkrough0728:
Which theme were you on when it happened?
[Epic 4G Themes] The Root:
Shake 'n Bake

Easy way to test is to use Shoot Me. It'll run a media scan and delete the pic you just took.
[Epic 4G Themes] jkrough0728:
I havent run into that before weird... has it happened on other themes as well or just that one?
[Epic 4G Themes] schnowdapowda:
Not on my themes. Maybe themes with gallerys other than the srf 1.2 one which is from the desire apparently.

cd's or tapes?
[Epic 4G Themes] Paul627g:
Gears of War and Halo themes seem to have no problems with this.
[Epic 4G Themes] ZiggSVO:
Was just getting ready to post :p. As you have seen with the multiple screenshots I have sent you of the halo dialer that our themes don't erase them :p

Edit: bonsai gallery doesn't erase

Yeah, no reports of this from Dark Horse either. Plenty of shoot me pics still there.

Sorry The Root. I should have told you... :D:D:D
[Epic 4G Themes] The Root:
I was just reporting what I was noticing and I tested a bunch of things. Nevermind, thought people wanted to know if something goes wrong... I understand what I was reading about this place now from someone.
[Epic 4G Themes] The Root:
Sorry, thought they cared if it worked on phones other than theirs.
[Epic 4G Themes] ZiggSVO:

[Epic 4G Themes] qbking77:
Have you tried formatting your sd and starting clean? Have you tried a different sd card?
[Epic 4G Themes] The Root:
Yes, yes, even Odined back to stock and reinstalled everything on a clean phone. I'm not an idiot. Haven't you also noticed threads about it popping up everywhere now. Other testers are finding the same things. We talk.
[Epic 4G Themes] handymanjames:
I've never encountered my files erasing on any theme, any build, ever. I like to test stuff for ****s and giggles. As for why yours is doing it I'm not sure but it could be any reason, I suggest odining back to stock and reformatting your sd card. Wipe the slate completely clean and see if you can reproduce the problem from there using the problem themes.

So far it looks like you're in the minority on this one man.
[Epic 4G Themes] readingkeeper:
I haven't noticed anything of the sort on my theme. Has it occurred on anything besides Shake N Bake?

[Epic 4G Themes] The Root:
I did this all, but nevermind. Everyone's theme is perfect. Don't worry.
[Epic 4G Themes] JohnCorleone:
Actually Shake and Bake was the theme I was on when all of my photos got wiped out too. I didn't think it was the theme but if I remember right I did post how the media scanner was reading the SD card as it does on a Gingerbread ROM (in two parts but one says system media then the second part SD media) or along those lines. Usually it just goes through the "scanning media" twice. That being said, Shake and Bake and Nebula are my favorite two themes of the new crop personally. I am running Nebula now
[Epic 4G Themes] ZiggSVO:
This kind of attitude is funny...no one said any theme is perfect...

But you can't just come out with a blanket statement saying "themes" are doing it...that tarnishes peoples views and not to mention other peoples hard work. No one in here is being anything but helpful and informative. Sorry if you feel otherwise. Now since its only happened on the shake n bake theme have you mentioned it in the orignal themes thread? Not the ported thread but the thread that it was ported from?
[Epic 4G Themes] Paul627g:
Have you been using app & data restores from MyBackup Root or Titanium? You would be surprised what a little corrupted file there can do to something in your ROM. I only say this because you say you Odin'd back to stock then rooted and flashed and it happend again. Was this on a fresh install with no restores and is it limited to just the Shake N Bake theme?

Trust me the community cares if there is a bug out there but as you can tell from most of the themers that have reported in on this they (we) haven't had any issues using Shoot Me or Screen Shot and erasing pics or else we wouldn't have screenshots...
[Epic 4G Themes] JohnCorleone:
I lost all saved wallpapers as well. It wasn't just my screenshots. It was pics in drawable,res folder, download folder, wallpapers folder. It was only pics though...none of my 400+ songs were lost..EDIT..oh and I never restore anything. When I install a ROM, every app gets installed fresh. I can't say if its random conflict or what because darkierawr's Nebula theme is perfect!
[Epic 4G Themes] The Root:
I don't take this stuff lightly and everyone's acting like this is the first time I've ever tried anything. I wouldn't try to slander anyone. I've tried a bunch of things and I know when something is working and when it isn't. When you buy a brand new accessory to make your phone better and out of nowhere ebery time you have media scanner run it kills every image file, you start trying things. I knew people would call bs, so I odined back to stock and rerooted and reinstalled SRF. I didn't restore any data files. I then tried Shoot Me. It worked fine. I flashed Shake n Bake as it's the theme I like on my phone. I tried to take a picture and then the image files never took and a bunch of others disappeared. I then restored SRF to stock and tried the process again. Pictures all stayed. I flashed Emotionless Beast Ressurected. Pictures all stayed. I had plans with my wife and didn't get to test others, yet, but John and I were talking and he's experienced this on a couple other themes as well. The problem only seems to happen on themes and doesn't seem to care what Rom or Kernel you're using. This never happened to me before I started using themes with 6 locks baked in and I remember Mystery talking to me about how the framework wasn't working right and he had to rebuild it.
[Epic 4G Themes] ZiggSVO:
I remembermystery stating that in the sfr 1.2 thread also but he never said what was broke on it. Not sayin your slandering anyone just pointing out the statement was general and we the themers are responding and letting you know that its not happening on ours or its not being reported. JC only stated it only happening on the shake n bake theme andn no one else is reporting on problems with the themers that have responded so far. And if you notice the post about odin and reformatting was posted a minute after u posted that u did it already. So likely hood is that he was typing it out as you were typing. You didn't state that you tried anything up until then. No one is stating your new at this but even the most experieced on here have brain farts occasionally and forget the simplest of solutions. So it bein an open forum your going to get suggestions for tring thins you have probably done a few times already. Like I stated before this seems isolated to the heinz shake n bake theme. I've read the other thread on this issue and they all have been running shake n bake. So again my suggestion would be to go to that threads op and read through to see if its a known issue and if not bring it up. And if its not an issue with the original thread then it might be the port.

On a side note you said JC said its happened on other themes. What other themes were they john?
[Epic 4G Themes] The Root:
Just frustrated because there have been multiple threads in General and Q&A about it, but no one seems to say anything except the people it's happening to. The threads are also getting a lot of reads, so I figured they were being ignored. I feel like everyone cries "user error" anytime anything happens now. I know it's frequent, but there are times things need to be looked into by the people who know how it's functioning from the inside. Also, understand that I've spent every night backing up all the new pictures I take because I don't want to lose them. It gets old.
[Epic 4G Themes] JohnCorleone:
They are themes that seem to have not come to light yet and appear that they won't so I am not going to name them because they aren't released for download. I am part of the ACS test team but I test EVERYTHING for the better of the community. This 6 lock mod is definately a finicky beast. Try running a ROM without 6 lock baked in. If you flash a 6 lock mod theme, you can't go back to a theme without it without starting all over..not by wiping everything but with Odin.
[Epic 4G Themes] ZiggSVO:
I understand about being frustrated...trust me. First thing to do though is to calm down:p

I would def post in the op for the original theme...has to be soething there
[Epic 4G Themes] JohnCorleone:
They have acknowledged the issue in the Shake and Bake thread and are looking into the issue now. I am pretty sure it has to do with how the SD card is being scanned. I noticed the difference when I first booted it. I thought "wait is this a Gingerbread theme?" because of the system media then SD media reading thing. Just boot your phone on Froyo, you just see scanning media 2x. It goes through the scanning SD completed twice. Then try a Gingerbread ROM. You will see how the scanning is broken down into two seperate catagories.
[Epic 4G Themes] The Root:
I also put it as a call to all themers as a specific bug that they may want to watch for and may not be able to replicate. I know I read an Android issue somewhere regarding this kind of bug. The logcat ended up talking about the phone not being able to verify the files as from the phone and thus erasing. It wasn't a brand specific bug. I'll try to dig up that source.
[Epic 4G Themes] JohnCorleone:
Thanks Root. The more info the better.
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
This doesn't happen in MattedReds...Then again, I don't have a Gallery.apk being replaced when users flash my theme. I'd assume it's related to the Mediaprovider.apk though, rather than Gallery...But my Mediaprovider is just a themed SRF one.
[Epic 4G Themes] The Root:
Yeah, I don't think it's causing the issue in the one I'm trying out this weekend, either. I'm going to start playing more with that this evening.
[Epic 4G Themes] shane6374:
As regards to the Froyo 6 lock mod. The changes and issues most of the themers are running into have more to do with the android.policy.jar than it does the framework-res.apk. qbking and I both verified this while we've been building the Meizu port. As far as the issue goes with shake n bake, he might have accidentally modded the (guessing) mediaprovider.apk from the wrong base package. I'm not sure since I didn't build it. As far as threads in the general section goes, you really have to dig though 10 crap threads to find one worth while thread. Unless a thread title catches my I, or it looks like it might look like a funny "SINNN" thread.

I'm sure Darkie is working hard to fix whatever the issue is with shake n bake. I'm sure that there is an issue somewhere with it. JC hit me up on gTalk when he noticed it after he flashed it. He has never mentioned an issue like that with any of my releases, and he has tested every single one for me.

@JC, If you are going back to a non 6 lock screen from a 6 lock screen, you need to change the android.policy.jar file and settings.apk. The problem is finding the right jar file. TSMParts.apk won't do anything by itself without the other files. You can leave it or remove it.

@ all themer's, I've been tempted to test the jar files to see what work best with different frameworks. If any other themer's feel this is worth while, contact me and we can work on it as a group so we are all on the same page. Also, it might not be a bad idea to create uniform theme templates for the different mods (if that's possible).
[Epic 4G Themes] JohnCorleone:
Sorry I couldn't just quote the last part of Shane's quote from XDA app but it would be GREAT if the themers get together to create uniform theme templates. What a good idea. It shows the strength of this community that the problem was really brought to light last night and solutions are already coming to fruition.
[Epic 4G Themes] JuiceTheKidd:
Hey it's not deleting pics...it's just putting them in a folder that isn't getting scanned. My shoot me app use to do the same thing. They get stored in a shoot me folder and on media scan they weren't being scanned.

Let's Get in the Weightroom...Toned Body, Sound Mind
[Epic 4G Themes] JohnCorleone:
Its not just Shoot Me pics, my personal pics I took, all of my wallpapers, the wallpaper packs that came with past ROMs are all gone
[Epic 4G Themes] The Root:
Shoot Me is just an easy way to force it to happen. It initiates a media scan.
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
Another thing is you may have a .nomedia file in your DCIM folder (where the pictures are stored) and can be causing them to not be scanned. Although I don't understand why it'd only happen to a select few themes.
[Epic 4G Themes] The Root:
Checked for that first. I'd take screen shots if only it wouldn't erase them, haha! It does erase them. I think you were onto something with the mediaprovider.apk guess. I wonder if they don't survive some verification process.

Sent from bat country!
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
You should try taking MediaProvider.apk out of the theme (or replacing it with SRF's 1.2) and see if the problem persists. It could be a CIQ Mediascanner that's causing the issues (especially if the theme is No-CIQ).
[Epic 4G Themes] The Root:
Smart man. If I just took it out, it would just use the current installed, right?

Thank you for getting the word out. I first reported this issue in the chat and then on here, but it took a while for it to actually gain traction. :-)

How soon will the Shake 'n Bake be fixed?
[Epic 4G Themes] The Root:
Overstew says if you just remove the mediaprovider.apk from it, it should be just fine, but I haven't tried yet.

Honeycomb Fusion needs some lockscreen lovin' on the Glass lockscreen but it's looking fine as far as progress goes, as well.
[HTC EVO 3D] Tilde88:
So i got my 16gigger in the mail. Popped it in... and "ADB install -s *.apk" through a .bat. so it installed ~600 things (took forever).

Sense crashes like every minute... I can get it to run after WAITING for ever.

I'm slowly uninstalling things I don't want. I did this a first time and same thing. I RUU'd after and cleared SD...

Second time same thing. I'm writing this thread for ideas on finding the culprit. LP+ runs smooth, but after the system is OOM,

it pretty much panics and shuts down the launcher. I even have the keep in memory on in LP+.

Shutting down the launcher causes the phone to precache again and gotta wait. I thought

the stock Task Manager was doing something for the OutOfMemory, so I froze that ***** haha... Didn't do squat but FC when

I click it lol. Still get the crappyness. Don't flame about having 1000000 apps or w/e it may be. We are here to get this resolved...

Because it should work fine. Been thinkin of running a logcat and maybe find something too lazy tho.

I'm also pretttty sure that the stock kernel is messing things up;

*Class 10 card (legit on USB adapter tests, and EVO 4G on custom rom/kernel).

*Benches on 3D ~5-10MB/s, it should ALWAYS sustain at LEAST 10MB/s.

*Will not write at 10/MBs (Phone USB to PC)

If the card is laggin the phone will lag due to the apps. I tried the dual mount apps like we

used to have to use on CM7 due to kernel issue. Still slow. Also tweaked the ATU size on SD...

So... Here are the things that I will try and give feedback. Then you guys can give ideas.

*Gonna run a logcat.

*Perhaps use an ext partition (not what i did :-p i know) but really? Necessary?

*I would like to change the OOM settings like zeppelinrox's script does (need S-OFF for it though)XDA Thread Link. It's called V6 Supercharger.. If anyone knows how we could alter this PLEASE help.
