[Captivate Themes and Apps] iXNyNe:
For me the battery drain is directly related to being signed in to Google latitude. When I'm not signed in I have no battery drain.

That was true for older versions but I haven't tested 5.8 anyway. Ill try and see ifit makes a difference with this update.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] mpencexda:
I do not use latitude and I also do not have the battery drain issue.

anyone out there not using latitude and still see the battery drain..
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Spritely:
I don't use latitude and have zero battery drain from it also. Totally fixed for me.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] iXNyNe:
Reporting back, latitude is the cause of the drain.

When signed out of latitude I have no issues with maps causing drain, but when signed in to latitude maps causes very significant drain.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] arabcamel:
still battery drain

When i updated to 5.8, i noticed that the maps process was always running even after i stopped it. When i uninstalled, the process stopped showing up under running processes.

to me it seems like something is still causing it to remain open. I was not logged into latitude either.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] talleywhacker:
I too have noticed it running in the background but it doesn't seem to be causing much of a drain. Noticeably better since update

[T-Mobile LG G2x] millowster07:
Why is it since I got this g2x the stock and lg camera never used radio Geo loc... it only works with a solid GPS... my nexus1 worked flawless. Both eclair and Ginger. I'm confused and disappointed. The lg wont even do it unless you go through a bunch of swipes and taps and wont save it. The stock at least keeps geo tag selected and on my nexus stayed and tagged all photos with whichever was available gps or radio.

Anyone have any answers?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrPickleFicker:
Good Morning all,

I have a Telus Desire HD, now with Android Revolution 5.2.2. As long as I've had my phone rooted, I have never successfully been able to flash a kernel. I use the Kernel Update Utility v0.9, trying to flash the Telus Kernel. Everytime I run it, on reboot, my phone freezes on the White HTC splash screen.

Has anybody else run into this problem? What am I doing wrong? Thanks for any help you can provide :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rick639:
ok so i rooted my s2 , then i put the stock kernel back in .

is there a guide to show me what i have to do next ,because if i try putting my phone into download mode and try to back up the current rom or even try to install the miui rom .

all i get is a error saying failed to verify etc

can someone direct me to a guide showing me how to prep the s2 after rooting it so that i can change the rom on it .i have tried to find something showing me but cant seem to find a detailed guide

thanks in advance
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noobdeagle:
You do not use download mode and Odin for flashing roms your lucky you haven't bricked it.

To flash a rom you need clockwork recovery so you need to flash a kernel that has clockwork embedded the reboot to recovery backup wipe and flash new rom
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rockin_Zombie:
All the specific rom threads have detailed step-by-step instructions in their own threads. Which one are you trying to install?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kgoel13:
Ok maybe this is the right place to ask another newbie question. I rooted my phone with hellcats' kernel (KF1). So now can I install any ROM. The reason I ask is coz I want to flash Litening ROM XXKG3 (i currently have stock ROM 2.3.3) and am confused if I need to have kernel KG3 in order to do so. Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rick639:
thanks for the reply , the rom i fancy putting on is the miui rom
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
thanks for the reply , the rom i fancy putting on is the miui rom

Then go to that post read it all understand what you are doing .

Follow the instructions dont make it up .

Install instructions:

- Reboot to CWM

- if you are coming from other rom (full wipe): wipe /system, /cache, /data and Dalvik-cache

- upgrade: wipe /system

- install zip from SD-card, select MIUI-1.X.X-beta.zip

Note that it is a beta Rom at your own risk .

[EVO Shift 4G General] tokuzumi:
Something is coming soon....as in later today.

http://revolutionary.io/

Maybe this will be the root solution for the folks who are on 2.3.3.
[EVO Shift 4G General] notsointeresting:
Nice post man this better be good. I already have root but still be cool if they released it for the shift. But if it is a root solution it'll probably be evo 3D or EVO not the shift but fingers crossed right?
[EVO Shift 4G General] tokuzumi:
I'm fully rooted, but maybe this will mean we can get a lower level root, similar to the Evo 4G, where we can take system updates, and then just re-flash a recovery, and gain our root back.

I know Shinzul's twitter mentioned about the OG Evo, and the Shift being tested, so not sure if it will mean the tool will work right away, or if there will be more testing to be done for the Shift.
[EVO Shift 4G General] ekz13:
I hope so, need to nuke me some bloatware...
[EVO Shift 4G General] zeke803:
This is in no way a bookmark so I can come back to the same thread/link after I get home from work ;) Excited to see what is in store.
[EVO Shift 4G General] ColdPatch:
No support for Shift ...
[EVO Shift 4G General] tokuzumi:
Yet. It's in beta, as they are giving out beta keys, before they release a fully functional product for the masses. Shinzul did tweet the evo and the evo shift have been tested, so we won't be left out in the cold.
[EVO Shift 4G General] ColdPatch:
So you're saying there might be support for the shift in the finished product?
[EVO Shift 4G General] tokuzumi:
I don't see why not. Here is the tweet I mentioned, from Shinzul:

I think this more directly refers to the teamwin recovery that is being built, but you can't flash a recovery without being s-off (technically), so I'm going to go with the glass half-full philosophy. :)
[EVO Shift 4G General] ColdPatch:
Seems promising :D

Can't wait to see it finished.

Edit:

Revolutionary currently supports the following Android phones and HBOOT versions:

HTC Desire (bravo) 0.93.0001

Revolutionary will permanently unlock NAND write protection by default on the following phones:

HTC Sensation (pyramid)

HTC Evo 3D (shooter)

...

Maybe they will have it for the Shift :D
[EVO Shift 4G General] ranaroath:

Can anyone help? The original lg camera is gone/corrupt(?). when i select camera from gallery it just force close. Now the camera icon is missing from the app drawer. I can still use the camera (advance camera/retro camera etc) but i really want the original lg camera back. i checked the forum and read about missing .apk etc. i looked in the system/app folder i found these:

[HTC Sensation] Paticakeman:
I just noticed these on the casemate website. Looks similar to the tough case. Someone should buy one and let me know how it is lol.

Ok I'll say it.....

"But the holes are covered!" :D
[HTC Sensation] MxFadzil92:
i using tough case and which like you said holes are covered and there still isnt any issues... ?
[HTC Sensation] MxFadzil92:
i would say white but white easily caught dirt?...
[HTC Sensation] Constrabus:
Is this, like their tough case, two pieces that fit into each other?

On the web page, they make it seem like they have formed the two plastics of this case into one piece but I can't tell.
[HTC Sensation] Paticakeman:
I think its still two piece. I vote white!
[HTC Sensation] ujkadusko:
It is one piece made of two materials(hard rubberand plastic) and it does not have two layers,so it is very and I mean very difficult to put it on the phone and take it off.It id also easy to scratch because plastic is high gloss.i had it on Desire HD and swap it for Tough which offers much better protection.But I have to admit that Pop is looker:D
[HTC Sensation] leftovermagic:
just ordered a white one today
[HTC Sensation] Constrabus:
Couple questions about this case.

1: Is the inner layer on this like soft sillicone?

(I'm not liking the harder material that TPU is on my phone. I can tell its wearing on the front corners and making the matte finish to be shiny.)

2: The only hole that im worried about is the one above the camera and it seems to be covered. Is this hole actually anything to worry about?

(They are all just mounting points for antenna contacts, but the one above the camera is the only one that leads to a hole in the phone housing.)

3: Can anyone post pictures of this yet?
[HTC Sensation] picachux:
Looks pretty sweet, Someone post some pictures once you receive it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] butterbeam:
So can someone explain why? I am curious cause I have read somewhere there supposed to be diff. after update.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] flexnix:
That's odd. I always had the March 21st Baseband...I think.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] thanasisc4:
Looks like you updated either through the LG tool or OTA, and restored a froyo nandroid, no?

Flashing roms and restoring nandroids doesn't restore basebands as far as I know... we're still waiting on flashable zips.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] butterbeam:
Nop..I used lg update tool. Didn't like not having root access so I nvflash and restored back to froyo. The basebands remain the same for some reason.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] thanasisc4:
Errr... did you not read my post at all?? That's exactly what I said you did... you're post is almost identical to mine except for the unwarranted "nope" in front.

If you use the update tool or OTA and then flash or restore back to froyo, the baseband

DOES NOT

get restored.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jcbofkc:
You have to flash a new baseband to change the baseband. So far no one has posted the basebands to flash. The LG tool changed it and for now there is no going back.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] rancidm:
july 15 is the new baseband .. looks like u already had it..

whats your problem ?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] KingDavid63:
OMG Y'ALL NEED TO QUIT BEING FREAKING NOOBS AND READ B4 U POST! YOUR CLUTTERING UP THE FORUM WITH your garbage unnecessary post! A nandroid doesn't change baseband.. I'm all for helping people and noobs, but help urself some... If y'all are that incompetent you don't need to

Be messing with your phone in any way!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] eagle1967:
how about this.

The july 15th is the newest baseband that is included with the update.

if you do ota or the lg tool it will change the baseband .

custom roms do not change the baseband.

So if you installed from lg than went to any other rom you will still have the july 15th baseband.

if you install the GB update from xda either of the rooted ones from froyo without ever installing from lg or ota. you would have the newest build for the gingerbread update but your baseband would still be the original that came with the phone.

It is the practice that custom roms do not touch the baseband. not sure if anyone has ever included the baseband with a custom rom but i have not seen it.

hope this explains it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] butterbeam:
Errr... no I didn't! I'm not on here 24/7 like others going through every post.

[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tokuzumi:
Other than the obvious...:p

I know temp root is only persistent until you reboot the phone, and that permanent root remains after a reboot.

But what what is it about temp root that doesn't allow for it to be permanent? Is it because temp root doesn't allow for the system partition to be writeable? Once temp root is established, another exploit must be found, in order to make root permanent?

I've searched around on the web a little, and haven't found a sufficient answer, other than "Perm root is better because it's permanent.."
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stuke00:
HTC phones are NAND Protected. The system restores files when you reboot the phone so the root goes away.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tokuzumi:
Is nand unlocking the same as S-OFF? Or once the nand is unlocked, we have perm-root, but not necessarily S-OFF, so no flashing of custom roms? I'm just trying to get all of this straight in my head.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stuke00:
S-Off allows flashing of non-htc signed data to the phone. I believe for flashing recovery's and such.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] strapped365:
If im thinking right unlocking your nand and s-off is the same thing
