[Desire General] andQlimax:
I found this app https://market.android.com/details?id=eu.chainfire.nomoarpowah

Actually works only for some samsung devices, but the idea is good

Infact the app is able to switch on the phone when the alarms is going to be activated, even if the phone is completely turned off, in order to make it ring..The unique requirements is that the phone is under charging and is rooted of course

I think the same can be applied to our desire as well, because when the charger is connected, the kernel should be loaded, correct me if im wrong :)

So this mean that we (but not me :D) can modify the kernel in order to do a simple thing: it have to check the current time in order to reboot the phone when the time is going to be near to the time set by the stock alarm app (the alarm time is of course written somewhere on the /data partition)

Anyone can say if this can be done through some changes to the kernel?

I know that the solution is to leave the phone on or in airplane mode, but this could be a nice feature for our "old" desire, at least when its charging; but i think that everyone charge it on night and have the alarm set for the morning

Thanks in advance and sorry for my english
[Desire General] andQlimax:
Bump! No one have an idea if this can be done?? And no one like this idea? :confused:
[Desire General] Lothaen:
I thought this already worked.

I was sure my alarm went off on a plane before when the phone was off...
[Desire General] nickislauw:
lol, impossible
[Desire General] andQlimax:
Absolutely not...If ur phone is completely turned off, the phone will remain off forever (even if the alarm is set) untill u turn it on obviuosly ;)
[Desire General] mattmanwrx:
I think I remember my old Samsung dumb phone done that anyway.. if the phone was off the alarm would still sound... maybe it is a Samsung feature? Does the desire have a charging screen when the phone is off?

Edit: desire screen doesn't stay on, Samsung one does (my friends sgs does anyway). Only led on when charging desire...
[Desire General] iLHaNroID:
My SE-P1i (Symbian UIQ 3.0) was working in that way. This is an OS issue as well.
[Desire General] andQlimax:
That's correct, but the led color is controlled by the kernel..When chargin is amber, when full charge is green, this mean we can implemnt some logics on the kernel as well..For example we can implement in the kernel something like reboot (turn on) the phone when the alarm is going to ring (reading the setting from the phone file system)
[Desire General] mattmanwrx:
Seems logical and and theoretically would work... however, I know my phone takes a long time to boot... others more, others less, so how long would you be starting the phone before alarm? 15 minutes?
[Desire General] andQlimax:
Well, my phone is about standard for the boot time, is about 1 minute (even on stock sense, custom sense roms, aosp roms)..5 minutes before the alarm is enough..But I don't think this is a big problem, even 15 minutes before, just to be sure, it's ok..We just need someone that is able to do the necessary kernel changes (if this is possible; seems strange that no one never implemented this kind of logics when the phone is off under charging)
[Desire General] mattmanwrx:
Quoted from manu kernel thread...

So the actual idea is to make the phone ring.so you don't miss a call? Would the phone not need to be "on" constantly... and if so, why not just leave it on charge overnight? That's what I do?
[Desire General] andQlimax:
I mean make the alarm clock ring...
[Desire General] mattmanwrx:
:) I was gonna say just leave it on... but yea, boot the phone 5-10 mins (maybe users choice?) before the alarm sounds... I do like it... :)
[Desire General] germanhoss:
It´s interesting to think about this and see if it´s technically possible.

But I don´t get the motivation behind it :confused:

Why turn the phone completely off if it´s supposed to hang on the cable anyway? To save the 5-20 mA it uses when in airplane-mode?
[Desire General] andQlimax:
The motivation is exactly that, see if it is technically possible..I agree that is not a great advantage having that feature..
[Desire General] Nionor:
Would be nice I think, even nicer if it worked without having it charging. :)
[Desire General] mattmanwrx:
But the charging is what is keeping the kernel awake... otherwise you nay as have the phone on.. :rolleyes: :)
[Desire General] andQlimax:
That actually could work only if the hardware will support a sort of "wake up from power off" functionality (our desire hardware support it???)..Like pc and some nokia have..
[Desire General] mohan2k6:
Alarm and Calendar event reminders goes off after reboot or restart!

I have captivate that runs on Firefly froyo ROM. I have an alarm set in my phone that is supposed to sound every morning. But when I reboot my phone everytime for replacing the spare battery, the alarm is not re activated. In simple works, alarm scheduled to sound everyday does not reactivate itself after reboot. Have to open the alarm, disable it and again enable to reactivate it.

Any solution for this. Also any app that solves the problem? Same thing happens with calendar reminder events. After reboot, the calendar reminder events do not work. HAve to go to the calendar app for it to activate. Any alternate apps for the problem?
[Desire General] Alien2653:
I think it must be possible what did my previous phone Nokia 6220 classic had that my newer fella doesn't have it, and that phone could do it. Actually, it turned on a little sooner to ring exactly at the time you've wanted it.

But trust me it isn't that much good you know especially when you don't know there's such a feature. You've turned off your phone and you're sleeping you would kill anyone who dared to wake you up and suddenly a death metal music starts ringing 5:30 in the morning, you got the point :banghead:

:D

i would like to know this too, Ive noticed it since yesterday. My battery was perfectly fine before but yesterday i installed go launcher ex with a theme and ive noticed this *backup* is eating my battery now.

One Factory reset

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] awjunk:
Make sure your WiFi is not using any channels above 11. If so, the stock firmware is able to briefly scan and find the wireless but not connect.

I had/have the same issue and the only way to fix was to change my wireless to use a lower channel and not auto switch channels.

Turns out this was (I believe) a limit in 2.3.3. Though I've tested on 2.3.4 (Nexus S) and this has the same issue.

I posted a similar problem else where and one person responded saying that (the leaked ) stock 2.3.4 firmware in wireless -> advanced settings has an option to set Regulatory <something> that allows all channels to be used.

Hope this helps,

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erikos:
Why when recording video at Full HD the angle of view changes ?

The higher the video resolution the narrower the field of view becomes.

Of course the lens is prime so is it using only the center of the sensor ?

thanks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erikos:
zoom - wide

when recording video at 1080p the lens becomes zoom.

when recording video at low resolutions or just using the camera for photos it becomes wide lens.

have you noticed it ?

A thought I made was that because the lens is prime it crops from the center of the sensor for HD video. But what's the reason to do something like this? Easier CPU processing ?

any thoughts ?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NVIDEON:
And talking about the video ...

Is there a possibility (mod or app) to record video with the screen off ???
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erikos:
camera noise

I don't know about the screen but I am glad they silence the camera's shutter sound when the phone is at silent mode with the new official update.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prodygee:
There was someone that enabled a no-zoomed mode in the camera app. But that made you lose 720p recording, as he had to change the 720p mode into 1080p "wide" recording. Maybe someone knows what I'm talking about and has the apk for you.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erikos:
good idea

Why not recording full hd video at wide and zooming in (like the camera does) when ever you want ... maybe because this means that the phone has to capture video at 8 megapixel and then downgrade it at Full HD. So this must be more CPU demanding.

Probably the phone records video at 1920x1080 using the center of the sensor. Capturing only the center of the sensor does the zoom effect. I cant think another reason why loosing the wide angle.

The narrow field of view is useful in some cases (maybe outside) but recording inside rooms everything is very close...

I have a SlingBox classic (original lego-like silver thing) and it streams very nicely to my TF. In fact, whilst recently on holiday in Finland I was able to keep up with all the UK TV I was recording on my Virgin V+HD box via the Slingbox also, meaning no huuuge sessions watching 2 weeks of Corrie and Eastenders when I got home :D

Sling mobile app is pretty good, works nicely on HC (also have it on my Desire phone) and all-in-all a great setup, especially considering the 'Classic' is supposedly not supported by the App !

Which sense based rom yields the best battery life on the 3d? I'm thinking of WTSB.
[HTC EVO 3D] Riff76:
At this point, any rom is best. You need to underclock your phone while the screen is off. Free app CPU Manager in the market, has all the OC performance options from CM.
[HTC EVO 3D] DoctorComrade:
I would assume freeza's would be beastly because its a bare minimum ROM.
[HTC EVO 3D] phatmanxxl:
Any senseless ROM with set CPU underclocked while the screens off is probably your best bet. Use the stock kernel too.
[HTC EVO 3D] Moonmann:
What app did you use? I searched CPU Manager but didn't find anything.
[HTC EVO 3D] jayfonzerrelli:
This! I am currently using the "Senseless ROM" and love the battery life, and pretty much everything else about it. As for a Sense ROM, I've used 2, and I found "Viper ROM" to be the best out of those two. If you're into Sense, Viperboy's ROM is great.
[HTC EVO 3D] Flak:
I've been trying the various roms, and so far I consistently am getting the best mix of performance/battery life from Viper's rom.
[HTC EVO 3D] aznmode:
Viperrom is great on battery. Just dont flash any overclocking kernel and just let its built in Deamon script to control your cpu. You can use setcpu also but from what I'm reading daemon does a better job.

i've got the same problem... want to run the new leedroid rom, so i first want to flash the radio recommended (32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.08).

here's what i've done:

1. i used revolutionary to s-off my desire

2. i copied the radio.zip on my sd

3. i started in bootloader (volume- + power)

4. recovery

5. install zip from sd

6. selected the radio.zip

7. selected yes

then it tries to install the radio but then "installation aborted" with the following error (as shown in the screenshot attached):

"Amend scripting (update-script) is no longer supported.

Amend scripting was deprecated by Google in Android 1.5.

It was necessary to remove it when upgrading to the ClockworkMod 3.0 Gingerbread based recovery.

have i done anything wrong or is there something i've forgotten to do?

do i have to give the radio.zip a certain name?

i don't know what to do to flash the radio successfully.. :/

i have found the following in a thread in this forum but it's about htc sensation i think..

please, help me!
