[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
Yea, I can't really explain it nor diagnose it, but my best guess, based on my evo 4g days would be the pri issue
[HTC EVO 3D] sofla2:
Yes, it fixed the problem. Everything was fine today. I put some heavy usage on the phone today. Battery life was excellent and no freakin FC's!
[HTC EVO 3D] M5Rahul:
Ok Market seems to be working better now... But... I completely charged my phone last night (96% iirc) but when I woke up ( 8 am ) the phone was off and battery was dead !!

The only two apps I have installed, other than stock, is the Amazon App for free apps and Pandora which wasn't running at all....

Also, my battery drains pretty fast ... I have decent RF ( -80 dbm ) plus don't really use the phone much during day
[HTC EVO 3D] bigupurself7:
There are a few people with the same problem, fortunately i'm not one of them. I think the problem may have something to do with the updated PRI. Are you on the newest ROM? I'm sure there will be a fix soon, these devs are the best
[HTC EVO 3D] hdad2:
Sipping the battery today. I let it run down to nothing yesterday. Think it helps once in a while.
[HTC EVO 3D] soundwavedj:
Does this ROM have dual core enabled by default? Or the sqlite mod?
[HTC EVO 3D] sflg35:
im going to flash the CRT removal, and see if that helps any since there was mention earlier that it might.

its not really a feature i care about either way, so i wont be bothered by it not being there. lol
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
I'm downloading the 1.11.651.2 ruu now. So I'll be testing how downgrading radio and pri will go. Hope I don't brick my phone
[HTC EVO 3D] Roll3r:
I get the same on wifi. If I'm on 3G battery life plummets.
[HTC EVO 3D] hdad2:
Actually wifi was on but not connected. The only data connection was 3g (and a poor signal at that). I just forgot to shut off wifi when I left the house. Might have even been better had I remembered.
[HTC EVO 3D] Roll3r:
Your screenshot shows a full-bar wifi connection and no cellular data connection.

Edit: now I see that wifi has been off for a while prior to the screenshot.
[HTC EVO 3D] Anon9mouz:
It defeats the whole purpose BC I want the off but not the on animation and it worked perfect in 1.3 like that just not now
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
The original (came shipped with) RUU file didn't contain a pri file (rcdata.img), i think the first one that we got from htc/sprint was the one that I believe is causing some of our problems.
[HTC EVO 3D] Anon9mouz:
Here's a whole day since like 9am I believe
[HTC EVO 3D] PatrickHuey:
Its difficult for me to post on battery life when I'm on campus in class because the reception is terrible but today without calibration with wifi on all day I got 14 with heavy use. I think things are great personally. Haha!

vin, how could I get a hold of just a plain black status bar?

Sprint Evo3D.
[HTC EVO 3D] Anon9mouz:
I vote that notion too battery has been great I'm at almost 16 hours with few hours on wifi and the rest of the day 3g
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
Every little bit helps, man. If you can lower voltages and be stable, do it. You should be able to, I set the voltages to be pretty conservative so that everyone wouldn't have a problem running the ROM out of the box.

Did you do a battery calibration?

No to either but you can flash the sqlite mod if you want. I wouldn't recommend forcing dual core though man.
[HTC EVO 3D] Anon9mouz:
I got 18 hours today most battery life I ever had so yeah thanks V&V for all ur great work lets hope it can stay around there 12+ hours
[HTC EVO 3D] INebilim:
100% wakelock on test 4 what do I do?
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
You can try a fresh reflash (I know, you probably literally just flashed). Usually I'd tell you to downgrade you're pri to correct wakelock issues, but unfortunately I've still had no luck finding the 1.15_003 pri.

I downloaded an Ruu.exe last night, but it was to late to begin ripping into it to check if it has an old version of the pri. I will be home in about 13 hours (working a 12 hour shift then gotta pick up my daughter) and I'll rip into finding a pri for us.

Another option you can try is to flash another kernel, but its not guaranteed to work. Just be sure its based on sense and Android 2.3.4. Sorry for the limited options atm
[HTC EVO 3D] wilderckw:
Viper i lowered my voltage by 25 and I'm real stable do u think it would be ok to go 25 more. And do I hit 25 or use 50. So I'm 50 total? Also does any other kernel work without breaking ****. I like the EVO remix kernel he just updated it to V7 and my phone likes his kernels. Thanks for the help. Hope there not dumb questions.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
You can always do a nandroid backup and then test the kernel or the lowering of voltages and if either cause problems, just restore to where you are now
[HTC EVO 3D] PatrickHuey:
I'm just kind of confused on what this "pri" deal is. Someone could shed some light? I mean I think the rom is running pretty damn great. Though I did just mention about 8 percent drop in 2 mintiest as my data was going all wonky. Don't know if that is rom related. My campus is like a damn steel box.

Sprint Evo3D.
[HTC EVO 3D] wilderckw:
Thanks I will do that.
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
Yeah sure, try going lower. Just make sure you save changes when you do it or it will reset back to default. You wanna use -25 to go -25. It's incremental, not one and done.
[HTC EVO 3D] PatrickHuey:
Gotta say 3G is kicking my battery's ass. Lolz.

Sprint Evo3D.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
Think if our phones as (windows based) computers and think of the different firmware files (radios, pri, Wimax, NV, etc) as drivers for the different hardware components of our phones.

Have you ever installed a windows or driver update and next thing you know, one of your pieces of hardware isn't working as well as it did pre update? The solution to that problem would be to roll back the driver update to its previous version.

Roughly the same goes with phones. Some (firmware) updates will improve one persons phone, while the same update makes things worse for the next user. This is due to differences is the hardware from phone to phone. While companies strive to make every mass produced item the same, its just theoretically impossible, and every phone is going to be mildly unique.

If the pri update is causing its specific piece of hardware to not function as optimal as it should, it will cause decreased battery and signal, because the phone has to use more resources to make things run correctly.
[HTC EVO 3D] vanjangles:
RC2T3 - medium usage
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
Sorry for the long winded explanation, but tried to make it as layman as possible, so anyone could relate, not just the tech savvy ;)
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
You'd probably yield even better battery with test4, make a nandroid and step up your game!
[HTC EVO 3D] PatrickHuey:
No no I understand thanks though. So you're saying with the PRI we could definitely experience some inprovement? I'm not saying my phone is bad at all though.

Sprint Evo3D.
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
Vin, did you check the earliest RUU for the rcdata.img file?

EDIT: Oh, xHausx said that he didn't see that in any of the RUUs, so we have to find someone on 2.3.3 that is S-OFF with the ENG HBOOT to pull that. I'm not sure what the PRI we are looking for is but I think you know, right Vin?

So if we have anyone still on RC1.x that hasn't done any updates in the bootloader for PRI, NV, etc please post in here and let us know!
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
I checked the very first one that was leaked from 911sniper, and I checked the ota that came like mid Aug 1.652.7 it whatever. the ota didn't have it, so I downloaded the fill 400 mb RUU for the ota, but its the .exe and I don't have my computer set up to extract the ROM.zip from the Ruu.exe atm.

The download was hosted on some crap site and took too long to download, so I ran out if time since I had to be up at 6.

I'm doubting it is there, since it want in the ota firmware zip, but I figured if at least look.

Btw, in the very first ruu, there was most of the img files, but no rcdata, but there was a dzdata.img...any idea if there's a relation?
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
The pri we need is the 1.15_003 pri...(the possible problem one for some people is 1.24_003)
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
Hey, maybe try to get ahold of spinningfrog. For stability purposes, he may of held out on flashing any updates
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
I have no idea, to be honest. You may want to ask xHausx casue you have some more questions than me.

OK, thanks, so we REALLY need one of our users still on RC1.x who didn't do the PRI updates and stuff to hit us up, please!
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
Which pri do you currently have? And no I can't say which pri or radios will work best for peoples phones. Its really a user to user thing.

@Derek, pm Haus for fairly detailed instructions on how to pull the pri, so when/if we find someone, we can get it asap
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
Attention! Anyone that hasn't flashed the firmware update, check your current pri version!

Menu - settings - about phone - software information - more....check your pri version

If you have pri version: 1.15_003 let me or viper know!
[HTC EVO 3D] roninep:
Hey

Sent a PM but not sure if it went.

Im running 1.3 still. PRI is 116_003 and PRL is 21079.

Let me know if that will help.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
Awesome! Just keep being you and don't flash any firmware updates! viper or myself will get in contact with you on how to pull your pri, if its even possible sometime later today

Also, what is your baseband version? I'm pretty sure the first evo.3ds.came with 1.15_003 pri versions, so that means that somewhere between haus's firmware update, and the launch of the phone, there was a pri update to 1.16_003...so it would have to be in one of the update ruus...

Roninep, did you ever take any HTC updates and when did you get your phone?
[HTC EVO 3D] zaner123:
My battery life has been extraordinarily bad with the newest build. It seems one of the main causes is the Wallpaper...? According to Systempanel "Wallpaper" has the highest CPU usage, and it seems to be causing my phone to stay awake.

Over the past 8 hours, it has used 2 h 5m 33s of CPU time - 26.2% of all CPU usage. Next highest is "system" with 6.5%.

I'm using the same wallpaper as always... but it doesn't make any difference if I use an HTC wallpaper or one from another source (Flikie Wallpapers HD).

I don't use Live wallpapers, only static.

Any ideas?

Thanks
[HTC EVO 3D] wilderckw:
What do u keep your display on? That is what kills my battery
[HTC EVO 3D] vanjangles:
I know, I was just trying to avoid having to set up everything twice since viper said redline was going to be released in the near future. Figure I would just wait, and yes I know that is lazy lol.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
@zaner123, I noticed my wallpaper usage was kind if high too, at least high for basically being a static image. Which launcher do you use (sense, adw, go launcher, etc)?
[HTC EVO 3D] vanjangles:
I have screen timeout on 30 secs and brightness set almost all the way to low. I only turn it on auto if I'm in the sun. But honestly, if your on your phone a ton display will always be the main drainer on your battery. With heavy usage which is about 50% - 60% display I get about 15-18 hours. Pretty common for everyone I guess, except for Vin.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
I use my phone alot...
[HTC EVO 3D] zaner123:
ADW launcher EX.
[HTC EVO 3D] mikeyxda:
It's actually a pretty good indicator of the speed you'll get in most of the other apps you run. Quadrant, like most apps, is a non multi-threaded app that uses only one core... meaning that it is a poor indication of the total power of your phone BUT a pretty darn good indication of the speed that <insert random app here> is going to see. Why? Because nearly all apps are written like Quadrant: they're not optimized for our particular phone.

Bottom line: if Quardrant is slow, 99% of the other apps you use are going to be just as slow. So while people always scream "Quadrant don't mean ****". That's BS. It's a great indication of the relative speed you'll get with any random app.

BTW: SmartBench is a little better because it at least has a multi-core test.

[HTC EVO 3D] Hippie459MN:
I am still on RC1.3 and have not flashed anything else. Just the rom. :) Let me know what to look for and I will see if I can find it. :D
[HTC EVO 3D] vanjangles:
That my friend is extreme heavy usage..I would probably be there but I just use my office computer to surf the web throughout the day at work. Don't really use the phone until I get home unless it's texting or playing games while on the crapper!
[HTC EVO 3D] Hippie459MN:
Just checked mine.

PRI Version on mine is 1.16_003

PRL Version is 21081

Im guessing mine came with that as I got my phone new, rooted with S-Off and flashed RC1.3 so never had any other roms or even had time to let stock firmare update. It wanted to though right away.

Let me know if I can be of any help. :D
[HTC EVO 3D] davec1234:
1.15_003 Got it. I'm not on any viper rom at the moment and have no idea how to pull what you need.

I'm S-Off.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
Ok ronin, dave, and hippie, viper or myself will get in touch or post here with instructions on how to pull that. I'll try to get instructions from xhausx

Thanks guys, for being slackers on updating ;)
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
But what it doesn't take into account is modifications made to the system that will aid in battery saving, that in real time don't affect the actual realtime speed of apps. So the battery saving mods make the quad seem miserable, when in realtime usage, the speed of the phone/device is not affected in an adverse way

Maybe try to not allow scrolling wallpaper? Just as a test.

Yea, when I'm at work, I'm an extreme power user
[HTC EVO 3D] aramova:
Just wanted to say I've had a perfectly stable phone with amazing battery life since the update Sunday...
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
What'd you do? Lose your phone? Looks like you had like 12 minutes of screen on time out if 27 hours based on the 3rd pic
[HTC EVO 3D] aramova:
lol, no, I actually did some texting, a couple of SIP calls, a few voice calls, sent 4 picture MMS and looked up some stuff on google.

this is honestly the first time since I've owned this phone that it's gone more then a day on a single charge, and I've not changed my usage patterns at all.

kudos to you guys!
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
Thanks man! Now it we could just get everyone else up to par with that battery life, wed be satisfied.Hopefully mine and vipers theory about downgrading the pri will fix everyone else's issues with battery life/signal
[HTC EVO 3D] aramova:
In case this helps, here is what I'm running...

While I'm at home, I'm lucky if I get 1 bar of signal.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
Yea, you're one of the examples of the newer firmware working great for your phone. Many of us seemingly aren't so lucky
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
Try another launcher and see if that fixes it.

I disagree with you. Quadrant tests for database reads and write, calculations, and video performance. Most of the apps that you use on a day to day basis don't do too much of that (with the exception of games for video performance) T4 has been very snappy for me even with a lower scoring Quadrant... I mean random number generator ;)

I'm on pri 1.24. Ummmm? Haha what does this mean for me?

[HTC EVO 3D] xavier86:
I got it figured out.

When I set the overclock beyond 1836000 in ocdeamon and used CPU master to set the phone to the highest overclock (for gaming) the phone locked up and went into a boot loop. So I guess my phone can't handle an overclock higher then 1836000. Or CPU master crashes my phone. Anyway I removed it and don't use it anymore. But I would like to have more control over my processor speed. Is there anything that works well with viperrom and oc daemon?
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
Are you having horrible battery life, at least compared to before you flashed the firmware update? If you can remember.

If your battery life became crap roughly around the time of flashing that firmware update/rc2 then you may want to test downgrading your pri once I get it figured out and ready
[HTC EVO 3D] Anon9mouz:
He can't be using the phone foreal not no one day. Lol
[HTC EVO 3D] Anon9mouz:
And I was being a slacker till I updated superuser and got fcs from hell so I said screw it and updated
[HTC EVO 3D] INebilim:
any progress made with the wakelock issue. I went from 99% to 24% in 5 hours...no idea why. the PRI is only a theory though...
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
Ah, ok, glad you figured it out. And all you need is oc daemon with viperControl script man. That should do everything you need it to do.
[HTC EVO 3D] sflg35:
has anyone tried reflashing the firmware update so see if maybe that helps?
[HTC EVO 3D] TrofeoSC:
I have what you are looking for! PRI 1.15_003, I am on RC1.3 with no updates or OTAs.

Let me know what file you need and also let me know how to extract it from the rom and I will be glad to be of service.

My battery life has been great, but then again, I am not on my phone that much.
[HTC EVO 3D] xavier86:
This is my wifes old phone that we found when we lost it. It's really helped me understand how one phone could differentiate from another of the same model. My old one that took a dive into the toilet was a real good phone. The.photos and videos were better, it was more stable and I had to do very little tweaking to make it run smooth and snappy with great battery life. This one is the opposite, its more sensitive oc daemon wise, camera isn't as good, its less responsive, eats a little more battery But it gets better service.

That system panel app that you had me try, I love it. It's so much better then the stock and others on the market. I'm buying it right now after using it for a couple of weeks. Great suggestion.

I did notice though compared to RC2T3 that this ROM does use a bit more battery. I can't really reference back to T1 and T2 but on my old phone I got the best battery life and performance from RC2T1.

If you still need the old pri 1.15.x let me know Im willing to boot up my old phone and see if it has it. You will just have to tell me how to get it off the phone and send it to you

Hey guys I don't know if this has come up already I got tired of skimming thru the first 40 pages and didn't see it... I seem to be having trouble reinstalling some apps. I figured maybe there was a problem with TiBackup so I went to the market and did it manually. I get a slew of errors saying "can't install not enough space on phone", when in the system settings I have 700+ mb left. Any suggestions?

Oh btw I did a clean install after a full wipe. Once to start and then again after I got the error.
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
Or go into Settings > Privacy (I think, phone is dead at the moment to verify) and it should have an option that says restore my settings, I believe.

LOL, I don't get much. I work my butt off to keep you guys happy! When I get 1 ROM done, I start working on the next update right away.

I bet you didn't clear cache. Go into recovery and clear cache and dalvik cache.
[HTC EVO 3D] Zoidpilot:
I'll try that... I found a way to work around it by manually installing each one in titanium back up, but if I try to install a new app from the market I get the no space error. 860+mb left on my phone... Will update in a few after I clear cache

I reworked the init.d script to fix a bug with virtuous_oc not starting and made some changes to the ondemand governor. File is in the 3rd post. You should see even better battery life with this without compromising smoothness.
