My bad guys, I didn't realize Terminal Emulator was available on the Market... I'll report back once I have some more information

---------- Post added at 07:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:31 PM ----------

Ok Goose & CS,

I just downloaded & installed the latest version of Android Terminal Emulator. I issued the commands Goose suggested & rebooted. After a restart, my battery stats are as follows:

~11h 6 mins on battery

82% Cell Standby

7% Display

5% Wifi

4% Phone Idle

We'll see what the morning brings! It's now 7:56 PM PT.
[Droid Eris Android Development] MongooseHelix:
To confirm that they are disabled, you can list packages that are disabled with the command:

pm list packages -d
[Droid Eris Android Development] PillClinton:
Goose,

I am glad you posted that response. Not sure if it matters but I typed the commands in Terminal Emulator using the Swype keyboard. Please excuse my lack of Linux knowledge.

After the reboot, I entered Terminal Emulator. I got: $ export PATH=/data/local/bin:$PATH

The next line started with $ so I added the line you suggested: pm list packages -d

I hit enter, and all I got was $ Does this mean nothing was disabled?
[Droid Eris Android Development] MongooseHelix:
Hmm, I just tried to disable an app and it isn't actually being disabled for me either. I know I've tested it out this way before even though I typically use titanium backup to freeze apps. Let me go and figure this out and I'll get back to you. Sorry about that.

I hate to admit it but my problem was because I wasn't spelling the package name correctly lol. I think for you, it's that terminal emulator needs root access to disable those system packages. So before the disable commands, run the "su" command. Your prompt should now be # instead of $. Now you can disable those three packages. After the pm disable PKG_NAME command, it should output saying that the package was disabled. If the output is "Killed" something then it didn't work. Once disabled, it will be listed by pm list packages -d.
[Droid Eris Android Development] PillClinton:
Wow I made a stupid mistake & forgot the "su" last time before entering everything lol. I got through the first 2 lines this time around but got a ton of fc's & had to reboot. com.android.phone

crashed over & over.
[Droid Eris Android Development] PillClinton:
It seems like the com.android.providers.telephony line was responsible for the force closes
[Droid Eris Android Development] MongooseHelix:
I edited the su command into the previous post with the pm disable commands. It wasn't there before so we both we both forgot :).

Looks like this experiment isn't going to go anywhere...the idea was a shot in the dark anyways as it came from people using tablets where the phone functions aren't needed. I guess you can try disabling whatever doesn't cause constant FCs. After making whatever changes, I would boot into recovery, clear cache+dalvik, and fix_permissions(other -> fix apk uid mismatches in Amon_RA) to clean things up.
[Droid Eris Android Development] PillClinton:
I was able to successfully disable the phone & mms with no ill effects (so far). Telephony wouldn't play nice. I'll start fresh tomorrow & see what happens
[Droid Eris Android Development] PillClinton:
OK CS & Goose,

Here's where I'm at. Last night I wiped cache/Dalvik & ran the fix permissions option in AmonRA. Next, after a reboot I ran the pm list packages -d command in Terminal Emulator & confirmed that the MMS & Phone packages are disabled. I did have to leave the telephony comand active, or risk constant FC's.

Next, in script manager, I reactivated Zepp's v6 Supercharger (update 9 Betal 6.1) & CS' Wifi Only script & rebooted. It is now 11:22AM Pacific Time. I'm disconnecting at a full 100% charge now & will check in later.
[Droid Eris Android Development] PillClinton:
Ok guys, after ~22h 34 mins on battery, here's where I'm at:

81% Cell Standby

6% Display

5% Wifi

4% Phone Idle

2% Launcher Pro

2% BeWeather

I still have a 32% charge remaining.
[Droid Eris Android Development] MongooseHelix:
Doesn't sound any better than before. Thanks for trying it out though. It might take modifying the integration and startup of the radio in the init procedure and/or kernel since we can't disable the telephony provider without FCs. Has anyone used or know about the MP3Rom and what method was used to disable the radio?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Zuckstone:
Have you tried turning off the Radio in the *#*#INFO#*#* (*#*#4636#*#*) Menu?

Downside, you have to do it after each Reboot.
[Droid Eris Android Development] bmfesta2009:
What ROM are you using? I've been running this script on top of Ginger-Tazz v30.3, along with some minor customizations, and my Eris runs for over 100 hours on average. It's primary use is streaming Pandora, Checking E-mail/Calendar, and the weather.
[Droid Eris Android Development] PillClinton:
I am running Condemned CM7 v18.2 (or 18.3) on my Eris. I'll have to confirm later, it's at home.

---------- Post added at 11:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:23 AM ----------

No, I had not tried this as of yet. There is no way to make this setting stick after a reboot though?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Zuckstone:
Maybe there is. Tried looking at a logcat of the sequence, totally over my head.

I would think a 'Dev' should be able to reproduce that switch it in a script.
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
Can someone post a logcat of this? The info dial doesn't work on my dinc...

Sent using my 666th Inc from remote regions of hell
[Droid Eris Android Development] MongooseHelix:
The logcat points to the TestingSettings activity in the Settings app. That in turn leads to the testing_settings xml resource. In that, you find that the Phone info option uses the RadioInfo activity. This is where the button is that toggles the radio on and off. When pressed, the method setRadioPower(boolean power) from com.android.internal.telephony.Phone gets called. It seems to be very similar to starting airplane mode but I'm not positive about that.

I don't think you could make a script that accomplishes this on boot but it should be possible to make an app that sets the radio off by using a broadcast receiver to catch boot_completed. Then it could call phone.setRadioPower(false) and be done. I don't think I'll have the time to try making such an app right now but maybe CS or someone else might give it a go.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Zuckstone:
If it is similar to airplane mode toggle, Is it possible to toggle Radio as is done in one of the Sense Roms (xtraSense I think) on boot?
[Droid Eris Android Development] hallstevenson:
That key sequence is part of HTC's EPST (or ESPT) app and only available on Sense.
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
I know. That's why I was confused why it wasn't working on my inc. I'm running a stock based Rom with the apk it needs for that but it wasn't working. It's fixed now though lol.

[Droid Eris Android Development] Zuckstone:
using CS s2hell 18.3 and *#*#INFO#*#* menu works

app phoneinfo by sc@taiwan (free in market) also works.
[Droid Eris Android Development] danam:
This may be obvious to most of you, but I thought it worth mentioning for newbies like me that one of the great advantages of a wifi only device (or, as in my case, an activated Verizon phone that I am taking to Europe) is that on wifi only you can use Google Voice and GrooVe IP (simplest method) or sipdroid and more complicated methods to create free VOIP phone.

Awesome.

Now, when I go to Europe, I put my GSB Eris in Airplane mode, wifi on. If I am in a hotspot I can receive calls to my Google Voice number (forward to Google Chat and GrooVe IP answers). If I am not in a hotspot, I get my GV voicemail and missed call notifications the next time I am in range. Then I can use the GrooVe IP dialer to go through GV and call North America free. If I want to call elsewhere in Europe, GV will handle it for ten cents a minute...cheaper than worrying about a 'plan'.

Of course, if you are stateside with wifi in the house, you can just set up your old Eris this way as your new home phone and it will work 24/7.

Really awesome.
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
I've been running some different setups lately and using wifi only on the Eris for a couple of weeks now and found this:

Running my Eris in airplane mode and turning WiFi on gave me the same results of low to mid 80's% of Cell Standby as well as with using the script. The only difference was.... using the script WiFi remained on and connected after a reboot where using airplane mode, if I rebooted the phone I had to turn WiFi on again once booted.

My conclusion: The seemingly high cell standby percentage is normal. :p
[Droid Eris Android Development] code_311:
Genius! Been looking for this to use on an Eris "mp3 player" and a moto droid 1 "wifi voip phone".

Perfect!:D
[Droid Eris Android Development] joebob2000:
This may be a silly question, but has anyone had a problem with seeing a reasonably accurate time on the clock on their Eris after going the wifi-only route? If the radio is disabled on boot up then the phone can no longer sync time with the network, which is certainly the preferred method. Will the phone try to sync time using wifi and NTP if the radio is off? And if so, how often? I am getting my feet wet with this whole wifi-only phone idea (thanks for the great script and instructions, btw) and this was one of the things that stuck out as a possible issue.

Edit: It seems that the script takes about 30 seconds to kick in, in which time the phone is getting a time from the network so the reboot sync will happen without issue. Time will tell if there is enough clock drift to become a problem after its severed from the cell network.

Also, I too see really high Cell Standby usage, probably due to the phone having no idea what to think when it is "out of service" since the radio is off. The battery so far has run about 15 hours and is still at 80% so i think its a case of lousy "Statistics" which is not uncommon.

Lastly, this fix plus the latest GSB/Cyanogen rom is so so so SO cool. I set up a google voice account (giving me a local number and all the other great features), then got SIPdroid and an account with PBXes (automatically generated by SIPdroid, no less) and finally got a SIP capable DID (a provider/phone number that can deliver a call to SIPdroid via PBXes) and tied it all up and now have a Wifi-only smartphone that can make/take calls and TXT messages COMPLETELY FREE.

If anyone wants more info, I would be happy to share. This little droid Eris just won't quit!
[Droid Eris Android Development] Metal_Bob:
Most of that was gibberish but I am interested in wifi texting.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Izeltokatl:
If you just want texting, that's super easy.install Google voice.

Visit voice.Google.com to pick your new number first then install the android app. You'll want to post a new thread for more questions though to avoid a hijack. =)
[Droid Eris Android Development] code_311:
I noticed my Eris clock was a bit off, but I don't think its a problem with mine. I just unchecked the "sync time with network" anyways.

Has anyone noticed worse battery life running this script at boot? I think I have it set wrong. My battery was lasting 6 days, with script running at boot, it died in less than one day!
[Droid Eris Android Development] j3h:
So i just upgraded my phone and wanted to use this script on my eris and the download link wouldn't work for me. does anyone still have a copy they can upload?
[Droid Eris Android Development] misterman102:
HELP!

Hey everyone,

so I ran this script on my eris like 6 months ago. was working well.

my new phone broke so I needed to reactivate my eris.

I went right into recovery and did a full data/dalvik wipe and reflashed my ROM, and rebooted.

for some reason, even though I have deleted this script, my eris receives no signal.

it simply says 'no signal' all the time.

has anyone else had this problem with the setting sticking?

any help would be so greatly appreciated.

THANKS!
[Droid Eris Android Development] dusthead:
Start by deleting or moving the script out of the folder on your SDcard. Sounds like script manager was restored (either by the market or titanium backup) with all it's settings to run the script at boot. so if moving the script doesn't work then remove script manager and reboot. then if you still need script manager, reinstall it fresh from market. Good luck.

This script is exactly what I've been looking for to use my old HTC desire as a MP3 player.. Would I have any issues using this with such a phone?
[Droid Eris Android Development] hallstevenson:
I've been away from the Eris for a while now -- what's a good, lean ROM to use for MP3-player only duties ? I'm sure something non-Sense-based will be best.
[Droid Eris Android Development] klobkelosh:
I've been using the latest xtr sense and it works surprisingly well for mp3 and as a voip phone
[Droid Eris Android Development] Johnday29:
I have been searching every where and am hoping someone can help. I have the script up and running and it seems to work but the problem is after the scrip runs the signal bars go to an x for no service (this is good) however this only last for about 10 sec and then the signal bars come back on. So for some reason the script works but is not permanent and something else is reactivating the radio as soon as I shut it off. When i use the *#*#4636#*#* and manually shut off the radio it will stay off until the phone is rebooted. I need something to automatically shut it down so I can give the phone to my kids with no worries. Airplane mode is not really an option because several of the apps they like to use have problems running when in airplane mode.

Thanks

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baseballfanz:
It's a system app. Use ADB push it to system/app

but if you're using Prime 1.7 the Talk should already be there.

[HTC Sensation] Keithod:
Hello,

I have changed my CID to 11111111 (SuperCID) and when I check it via fastboot using:

fastboot getvar cid

it returns the eight 1 digits. But I downloaded the 2.3.4 update.zip and when I try to install it, it tells me that "assert failed :check cid(getprop("ro.cid")), "00000000", .............." Error in /sdcard/PG58IMG.zip (Status 7) Installation aborted.

I was S-OFF by Revolutionary, then I installed another RUU.

Anyone got any ideas on what's wrong?

Thanks,

Keith
[HTC Sensation] iftikar666:
I think that the problem is that the update package does not like the supercid value of 11111111, it is looking for valid CID values (this is detailled in the OTA 2.3.4 trend)
[HTC Sensation] Keithod:
You were right, thank you! Changed from 11111111 to HTC__001 and it worked! :)

when zipping a rom in 7zip can you set it to ultra,if not what is the best setting to use?

Thanks for the help
[Epic 4G General] duce102:
I don't think your suppose to compress it at all but I could be wrong
[Epic 4G General] styles420:
I was going to say the same thing as Deuce - in this situation, the zip file is just a container to hold it all together in one file
[Epic 4G General] mattallica76:
I don't think the zip itself can be compressed, but you can put the system package into a tar, then compress it into a LZMA file within the zip. Any kernel/modem update folders would still be in the root of the zip with the META-INF and tools as well. Obviously the updater script would have to be changed to unzip the system package during install.

Bonsai started using this method with 4.1.3. For comparison, the 4.1.3 ROM package is about 20 MB smaller than the 4.1.1 package.

Hey what would cause my java scores to drop using cf bench..I'm not sure what its measuring but it seems to have cut in half for no reason ..I think its at 1800 when it was like 4k before ..this isower than stock

Btw I'm on viper and helicopters #1 kernel ..with this same combo I was getting an overall score of 8k so I'm not sure what has happened ..and its not just the score I can feel it using the phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] phatmanxxl:
You got an app that is a cpu hog maybe, it could be a number of things. Reboot your phone and then clear out all your tasks using an app like Fast Reboot, then run a quadrant. Also an app like system monitor can show you what apps are eating up cpu and battery. Hope this helps.

I just noticed I got the same set up as you as far as kernel and ROM, its got to be an app in the background cause I get no lag whatsoever and im only over clocked at 1.5 with the screen on.

Edit again: maybe your over clocked too much, I read that pushing it too high can create lag also and be counter productive. With me 1.5/on demand seems to be the "sweet spot" for battery/performance.
[HTC EVO 3D] firmbiz94:
Thanks for the reply..let me explain exactly what happened.. I had the setup I told you for a few days and I was using setcpu to Oc..at that time I.was getting about 8 k cf bench score and the phone was fast besides the fact that setcpu was acting funny..then I set up the Oc daemon and set it to 1.8 just like I had it for setcpu. I really liked the daemon bc the phone was super fast..I then flashed an icon pack..at this point i was still getting high scores..I then tried flashing a theme and after that is.when my scores dropped significantly and i felt a little slowdown..so I.flashed back to just the ROM and kernel with no theme thinking that the theme was the issue. Unfortunately I'm getting the same low scores. The java score is very very low. I dont have many apps and i didn't even re install any apps besides the cf bench when I re benched it
[HTC EVO 3D] phatmanxxl:
Try viruses superwipe, that might help.
[HTC EVO 3D] firmbiz94:
Will do

..should you wipe when flashing another kernel
[HTC EVO 3D] phatmanxxl:
If its just the kernel just wipe the cache and dalvik cache.
[HTC EVO 3D] firmbiz94:
I did superwipe and my java score went up 1000 points..I'm at around

6500 ..right on par with the gs2..so its better but not as good as before..but I'm happy bc everything feels good..since your running same setup as me if u can do a cf bench and let me know what you score is appreciate it ..thanks for your help

Good read, I hope this dents any forward movements of the acquisition. I would like to stay with tmobile, they've been the most fair from any other companies.
