I've been using Wallpaper, however it doesn't seem to matter which one is selected. The corresponding service runs pretty much constantly (i.e. Wallpaper for the Wallpaper lockscreen, Weather for the Weather lockscreen, etc).
[HTC EVO 3D] guyandhisdog:
I've disabled weather, weather wallpaper, and weather widget a long time ago. It does not affect weather lockscreen, and weather does not show up in better battery stats or system panel. Actually, I've never had weather or wallpaper show up as running anytime

Edit...

on another topic, Anyone take a video with led on? Any issues? I closed the video and led stayed on

edit2... probably from undervolting. just got a freeze/reboot also. no big deal. that's been the only thing i've seen from undervolting and it's only happened that 1 time
[HTC EVO 3D] Roll3r:
So you're saying that you're not getting Weather (com.htc.weatheridlescreen) listed in System Panel with the Weather lockscreen enabled?
[HTC EVO 3D] roninep:
i just looked at mine using SystemPanel. Wallpaper is listed as running service and cant be stopped - it just restarts. My usage is (2 days 3 hours since it started) - total cpu time (9m 12s) - average consumption (0.3%).

That doesnt sound like a lot to me. Is yours higher? Would shutting it down increase my battery life?
[HTC EVO 3D] zaner123:
That seems normal. Shutting it down won't help.

This is with very heavy use with a 100% charge.

ViperROM RC2T4 ¦ EVO3D@1.83Ghz ¦ 32GB PNY Class 10 mSDHC
[HTC EVO 3D] Roll3r:
Mine's at 3.5 minutes after 45 minutes running. Consumption is 6.9%.

Edit: OK, think I'm getting somewhere. The increase in CPU usage jumps considerably when the 3D is plugged in. When it's disconnected, it's pretty low. Started uninstalling apps one by one, decided to just wipe and start from scratch with just System Panel installed.

Edit #2: OK, out of ideas. Clean install, just System Panel installed. Seeing same behavior as before. Gonna download a different ROM and see if I get the same thing.
[HTC EVO 3D] guyandhisdog:
Well it has to run constantly if using the weather lockscreen. I'm not sure what we're talking about here, or where its going
[HTC EVO 3D] Siamesed:
Is anyone else having problem with their screen not waking up when someone calls you? It's driving me insane as I can't answer the phone! I've already raise the voltage by .75mv without any luck.

The problem is most prevalent when charging with screen off for at least 3 minutes.
[HTC EVO 3D] Roll3r:
This is the Wallpaper lockscreen, not just Weather. And this is probably going nowhere, but some of us are getting really bad battery life, and trying to figure out why.
[HTC EVO 3D] chillenandy321:
Has anyone made a mod that changes the right button? Internet,camera,messages etc. Thanks
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
Did you save the changes after you bumped the voltage?

I never incorporated that into the ROM but I know there is a way to do it.
[HTC EVO 3D] xavier86:
This is insane. I'm going to remove the clock widgets and see what's logged an hour from now and post it

[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
WTF program is that?
[HTC EVO 3D] abdeviation:
I was on RC2 before this and I'm sad to say that I had far better battery life on RC2 than I do currently. I was listening to lectures on bluetooth through my phone all day on RC2 and it would have juice left after 16 hours.

Now it's down to 19% after 8 hours of use and I've barely used the phone today :(

I also get random phone reboots. Sometimes it'll reboot properly, sometimes it'll go to the viperRom boot animation and just stay there forever.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
looks like system panel to me
[HTC EVO 3D] Roll3r:
What service is that monitoring?
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
Did you do a battery calibration? You NEED to do that.

No, I know that, I mean what program was eating up that much CPU resources?
[HTC EVO 3D] xavier86:
com.HTC.clock3dwidget:FBSRV

This next screenshot is "wallpaper" and the process name is com.HTC.idlescreen.shortcut

EDIT:

The weird thing is these are only active when the phone is locked/screen is off.

So which leads me to believe that the lockscreens are not idling when the screen is off which explains why peoples batteries are plummeting despite the downclocking when sleeping/screen off

AHHH!! My phone froze, rebooted, and now it's stuck in a cycle. It stays on the splash screen (doesn't get to boot animation) and turns off, vibrates, splash screen, repeat. Someone help meehhhh
[HTC EVO 3D] Roll3r:
Ok, that matches what I'm seeing with Wallpaper ( don't have clock widget on). Can you reboot, unplug, and see if the usage for those 2 processes drops?
[HTC EVO 3D] xavier86:
Need more info on what you were doing when it froze, rebooted and boot looped. What changes have you made in vipercontrol, vipermod, oc daemon??

My phone did this when I pushed the overclock in oc deamon beyond what the phone was capable of. Were you using any CPU apps like setcpu or CPU master. I was using CPU master when my phone did it. You dont need them with oc daemon.

Try clearing the cache and dalvik cache and see if boots. If not then the way I fixed it was formatting the dalvik cache, cache, data and system and reflashing RC2T4 and starting over.

Did you make any adjustments to the voltage and frequencies in oc daemon? If so try upping the voltage another 25-50 and then play with the overclocking. If it still does it then you need to adjust the overclock by stepping it up one at a time and see how high you can go before it becomes unstable. The one you entered that made it unstable make a mental note of it and set it to the frequency below it and there's your oc.

Every phone is different so your phone may not overclock like the other guys if that's your case?

Google Voice not showing option to use for international calls

I'm using Test 4 and in this version the option to use Google Voice for international calls is missing. How do I restore that or use something else to make cheap or free calls to say Canada?
[HTC EVO 3D] zaner123:
I reflashed the ROM, tried the weather lock screen and the wallpaper lock screen and wallpaper/weather (whichever I use) is still eating my battery

[HTC EVO 3D] flyboyjr:
It's happened to me twice since test 4 now... The first call after flashing test 4 and now again tonight. Phone rings and I can't do anything to answer it.
[HTC EVO 3D] xavier86:
Usage went down after a reboot. But it seems its still using some. I'm home now so I can tinker some more.

[HTC EVO 3D] mptherealmp:
I have the same issue and its been reported with other Roms. It happens when using custom kernels.

The thing is, the screen is still responsive even though its not lit. If you drag from the bottom center upward and left/right, you will answer/revoke the call as normal.

You can either use the stock kernel or take the chance that you will answer a call that you really don't want to.

Shots Fired
[HTC EVO 3D] sflg35:
so i thought my battery life problems were going to be over yesterday.

i went all day without having to charge the phone.

3 hours of talking and multiple hours of email, browsing, and texting.

it died when i got home so i proceeded to charge it until it was full.

i unplugged it at about 830 and went to bed at 945 with the battery showing 100% and the green light on.

thankfully i woke up 4 this morning for my flight before my alarm would go off at 5 because when i awoke, the phone was dead.

so between 10pm and 4am i lost 96% with it just sitting on the night stand.

attached are some screenshots from day use and then when i woke up this morning.

i would not call this a reliable ROM, just yet.
[HTC EVO 3D] duclet:
I don't know what happened but all of a sudden but phone is now starting to have a battery drain. The only thing I changed was lowering the voltage down 25 more than the normal which you would think would make it better. I have since reset it but still the same issue. I'm going to try re-calibrating but this is just weird.
[HTC EVO 3D] abdeviation:
I haven't done any OCing or anything like that. I was just browsing in Market and then boom
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
Try raising your UV by 25, then stabilize frequencies
[HTC EVO 3D] INebilim:
Frustrations...

I just want to point out that I had some of the most frustrating times using this ROM and I had never expected it. First the wakelock issue thats ok since everyone is in the same boat. I can no longer browse the market without kicking me out back home. google voice stopped forwarding voicemails completely and yesterday my texts are no longer synced with google voice website so people think im not responding even do i do so on my phone. I nandroided back CM7 from 2 weeks ago now everything works fine. its mind boggling how all of the sudden **** started going wrong. I am not blaming anyone but this cant seriously be a coincidence, i remove the same bloat i removed in T3 and things were fine. -100mV WAS stable but now i can even be on 1.2 GHz without getting random reboots that end with a freeze in the bootanimation, battery was amazing now its simply lackluster. i dont understand how things can just get dramatically bad in such a short time, my usage patterns have not changed at all. any input is appreciated. viper, I broke it :(

PS: i tried all "working versions of google voice .24, .32, .34 since .36 is messed up so i have no idea whats going on, clearly google services are NOT down.

thanks for listening
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
Sorry to hear about all of your inconveniences man. We're working to try to make things better
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
At this point, I'm starting to get very frustrated because some people are having a great experience and some aren't and I really can't explain what would be causing it. I have nothing but great battery life and no issues on T4. I will see what I can do :(
[HTC EVO 3D] INebilim:
I am currently trying to do a fresh install again for the third time. I am getting pissed off at google right now. I should not "need" a connection for everything to sync I have cell service. an iPhone 4S is looking very appealing right now
[HTC EVO 3D] sedracer:
Only issue that i'm having from the rom is super slow charging. The device literally takes 4-5 hours to charge. I have great battery life, getting 22+ hours the last two days on test4. I love the rom and it doesn't really bother me too much because it charges while i sleep but just letting the issue be known.
[HTC EVO 3D] guyandhisdog:
Looks like your wifi is on the whole time. Do you need it on while you're sleeping? That's a sure thing battery sukka. Also, can you not charge your phone while you go to bed?

You could also switch to airplane mode if you can't charge overnight. But from the looks of the battery graph, your phone was just a steady decline all day. No major spikes at night or anything, just heavy use with wifi on alot and no charging

just some thoughts....
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
I don't know what the issue is. But I did the "return to stock method" to return my phone to complete stock, and it doesn't super that the first two ruu/otas contained pris (I knew neither had the rcdata.img, but thought maybe it was contained in one of the other zips possibly)

Either way, everything was returned to stock EXCEPT my pri...lame
[HTC EVO 3D] INebilim:
there goes that theory out the window.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
Well it doesn't get rid of the need for the old pri. I've just got to find a way to pull it from the phone(s) that still have the older ones.
[HTC EVO 3D] sterlinron:
Just doing a quick fly by to post my experience with Test 4

Battery life fantastic

Still can't flash battery animation from Vin, if I do, it won't boot.

Phone rings, but screen doesn't come out of sleep. I can answer so the screen is active, it just doesn't display that someone is calling.

Phone screws up while charging overnight. When I wake up in the morning the phone screen is on at the Viper Rom boot animation, but the phone is unresponsive to any input. Have to pull the battery every morning.

Oh and if I go to helicopter view of home screens every screen is blank except the main home screen. They are there if I go to them, but no "thumbnail" view in helicopter view.

Been real busy, so haven't been able to really put it through it's paces these are the things I am noticing after general use.

Thanks guys.
[HTC EVO 3D] xavier86:
I got 15 hours off my battery today. But I noticed too I have a wake lock issue too. I'm going to keep ons sniffing around in system panel and try some other system tools and see if I can pin point the battery draw. Over night before I would drop maybe 5 or 10 percent. Last night it was 36. I'll see what I can dig up.

What ever was in T1 and T2 poeple seem to have gotten the best battery performance.

Off topic

[HTC EVO 3D] Anon9mouz:
Mine sat at 21% battery life last night on wifi and I was too lazy to go down stairs and grab the charger so I just left it on the nightstand and when I woke I was still at 21% with almost 22 hours in on one charge and probably could have kept going and up to that point last night was medium usage so I think I'm doing good most days and some days 9 - 12 hours so yeah idk its not really consistent but hey I can't complain

But off topic I have been thinking its time for a new phone the sgs2 or my evil enemy the iPhone 4s hmm
[HTC EVO 3D] sterlinron:
And here is one last plea to Viper.

Please give us at least the option for the 4G keyboard with cursor arrows, and give us the ability to delete multiple e-mail messages from the native mail app like we could on the 4G.

I love this phone, but having to delete e-mails one at a time is about enough to make me buy a 4G on ebay.
[HTC EVO 3D] Anon9mouz:
Ok remember that glitch in the notification bar on the top left corner well its doing it on test 4 too and here's to pics to show it. I'm just so confused as to what's doing it. When I pulled the notification bar down then it disappeared hmm. Much help thanks
[HTC EVO 3D] integra3g:
Just to add to the discussion... I am not having any problems at the moment. I have been looking for all the other issues described in this thread for Test 4 and am not seeing any problems. I flashed a battery indicator mod (from another post), 5 column app drawer (from Vin's post #4), black weather background (from Vin's post #4), the blue overscroll glow include in the ROM, and the eternity screen transitions from post http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=18187344&postcount=6883. I also setup all my voltages and such in vc like Viper did in post http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=18493818&postcount=7450.

My battery lasts about 15 hours with medium use. I am on wifi when I get home from work and waste most of my time on the phone playing games. I know it will go for at least 19 hours if I leave it sitting and it I did this on Test 3.

Thanks for all the hard work guys, keep it up!
[HTC EVO 3D] bigupurself7:
When I updated my PRI on my 4g this same stuff happened. I don't know why we keep updating it, I guess since there is no way around it. I'm guessing all the ROMS are having the same problem, so I would not recommend anyone jump ship since its all based on 2.3.4. I just really hope we get a fix soon, I guess going to stock wont even help

---------- Post added at 10:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:13 PM ----------

What are the exact steps you did in VC? I see you changed the max and min, but don't understand what you did with the voltage. You put it up 25 or down 25?
[HTC EVO 3D] bigupurself7:
Noop

did our switch to noop have anything to do with the battery life problems?
[HTC EVO 3D] xavier86:
The only way to know would be to switch back to the other... Could that be done with a flashible zip?

[HTC EVO 3D] abdeviation:
The RC4 release isn't very stable.

It has already once randomly frozen and gotten stuck in a boot loop. I had to reinstall the ROM to get the phone to work again.

The phone also randomly reboots itself and gets stuck on the Viper Rom boot animation and never gets out of it till you do a battery pull. 2.3.3 was rock solid
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
You can just change it in vC under daemon settings. But that shouldn't be the issue.

It's not stable for some people. For some it's great, for others it's not - that's why this is labeled a test and not stable. Sounds like you have a weak processor and can't handle the undervolt.

[HTC EVO 3D] El Ducky:
A masterpiece!

I had a couple issues but I bumped up the voltage and so far so good! Excellent battery life! I have to say Viper you're an artist and I appreciate all the work you put into your pieces! Don't listen to the cry babies that don't know how to use their phones correctly! :p
[HTC EVO 3D] PatrickHuey:
for anyone having wakelock issues, and using setcpu trying using the interactive governor. It helped me a lot in the past when I had a G2 when there were issues with VirtuousRom. It seemed to fix it. I honestly don't have any waking issues.

[HTC EVO 3D] chillenandy321:
Been on Test4 for 2 days now. Great work Team!! Keep up the good work!! :)
[HTC EVO 3D] duclet:
Did recalibration and the battery still sucks. No sure what the hell is going on because the first couple of days, it was great. I tried undervolting, changing the governor to powersaver for when the phone is idle, nothing is working. I installed system panel and it is showing that com.htc.weatheridlescreen is taking up nearly 50 percent of the CPU in the last 8 hours, which is simply ridiculous.
[HTC EVO 3D] reverepats:
Hey guys how's things going? Haven't been a round much in the past few days. So I haven't had any of the issues that most have been having. I actually recalibrated the day I flashed, and haven't looked back since. Keep up the good work guys...
[HTC EVO 3D] integra3g:
I think Viper was saying he bumped them up another 25 from an earlier post that he posted his voltages. If I remember correctly, it was to prevent the black call screen.

On another note, I was having the random reboots on Test 3 (which had stock voltages) that would get stuck at the boot animation requiring a battery pull. This would happen once a day, but have not seen it on Test 4 with the same behavior.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
In the earlier tests, we had the undervolt set at -75. Some people had instability issues with this out of the box, so we set the default (out of the box) at -50.
[HTC EVO 3D] Roll3r:
After trying out a few ROMs over the last couple of days, I've changed my mind about ViperROM. I'm getting, what I consider, pretty bad battery life with this phone in general, not just with this ROM. I think having just recently come from Evo 4G, which had excellent battery life, skewed my expectations of battery life on the 3D.

So, I'm back to ViperROM.
[HTC EVO 3D] cjdalessio:
For the folks getting lockscreen weather battery drain issues, try disabling weather sync entirely (settings > accounts & sync) to see if that helps any.
[HTC EVO 3D] luckyzac:
I find battery life to be much better than the OG Evo...
[HTC EVO 3D] duclet:
I think I may see the issue of my battery drain but I'm not sure how it is happening. It seems like every once in awhile when I turn on my phone, I see that 4G is turned on even though I have it turned off. Not sure how it is being turned on.
[HTC EVO 3D] kinextions:
I notice that once or twice a day the phone resets but gets stuck and I have to pull the battery and restart. I do think the battery is draining faster than the 1.2 version.

any suggestion? I dont notice any major changes going from 1.2 to this new version, should I downgrade????
[HTC EVO 3D] Roll3r:
Maybe my phone's just whacked. I also only ran AOSP on 4G, so maybe that's part of it. Sense is still a new thing to me ;)
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
I'll just put this here...this is after downgrading all firmware except pri...and a fresh install of the rom
[HTC EVO 3D] Roll3r:
Can you give me a link to the firmware you used? I just did a fresh install.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
In an attempt to downgrade my pri, I did the "return to 100% stock". Which downgraded my firmware except pri and returned me to stock software. Then I just reinstalled my recovery (latest version of tarp) then reflashed VIPERROM test4...took about 25 minutes

Only part I didn't follow was the "return to s-on"
[HTC EVO 3D] Roll3r:
Thanks. I'll give that a shot.

Edit: I assume this won't effect hboot, correct? I plan on using the one located at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1194053

Is that the correct one? I see a few.
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
This is interesting. I would like to see if doing this helps others. Thanks for testing this, Vin!
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
Yea, that'll work, just stop after step 6, or you won't be able to flash a recovery. I don't know if this will work for people with 1.5 hboot, so proceed with caution if you've got that hboot (used HTC unlock method)

I couldn't take the crap battery anymore
[HTC EVO 3D] Anon9mouz:
Ok well I bump it up 25 and I'm still getting black screen calls so if I bump it up another 25 then I won't be undervolted ne more right???? Well ne ways with that lil problem of mine I got this much battery life and on my re-calibration so yeah I should get even better next charge lol

Edit: Ok I feel like I dummy bc I tried to raise it 25 more and I guess settings didn't stick the first time bc I never save it hmm lol. So 1512 starts at 120000000 undervolt or what. but I'm thinking I was still stock so I'm hoping me doing it right this time should work
[HTC EVO 3D] Anon9mouz:
Hmm I hope this voltage thing works
