[HD Mini Android Development] codiak:
19 Mhz does not work for me. Phone gets unusable slow and dont come back :/

Beside that, underclocking do not have a big influence on the battery consumtion.

Undervolting would be more interesting.
[HD Mini Android Development] HTCxxxx:
Why Unusable??? Yhea, Undervolting can be an Interesting Thing, but i Think if the Volting is too low phone Freeze, and if is too high cpu can have an High temperature if you're stressing cpu and phone can freeze too. But i've noted, when i use a low "screen off" profile battery consumaption is high? why? is a problem of kernel? or is nomal?
[HD Mini Android Development] tzacapaca:
you are right,i also experienced that 19 Mhz makes phone lazy:)

i'm also agree about 2nd part..i read the same

you don't need to undervolt it too low,you just need to find the right voltage ;)

try last kernel from r0bin and you will not have high battery consumption anymore
[HD Mini Android Development] codiak:
Low Mhz does not lead automaticly to low consumtion.

If you phone has something todo (update something for example) it will get the job done faster with high Mhz and is going fastert to sleep after that.

With low Mhz it takes longer and so can have higher consumtion.

On my HD2 I dont use profiles (like screen off) and it has a very low consumtion on standby/sleep.
[HD Mini Android Development] schlund:
If you set a minimum speed when screen is off a11 is not able to go to suspend, maybe :)
[HD Mini Android Development] -r0bin-:
just a quick feedback on power consumption:

it never been so good with r167+drain fix without SetCPU

when I set profiles with low frequency (19 or 128Mhz) it keeps on consuming battery up to 100mA. when i switch SetCPU profiles off, i go to 9mA in suspend mode.

true story :D

there must be a way to setup SetCPU in a way it doesnt affect too much battery drain in suspend mode, but for the time being i just deactivated it.
[HD Mini Android Development] HTCxxxx:
yes i see some improvement, and im happy for it...
[HD Mini Android Development] HTCxxxx:
(I THINK):rolleyes:

Hi All,

I've understood why CPU doesn't run @ 19MHz or @ 128 MHz...

Go to /sys/acpucloclock and look acpuclk_tbl...In It there are write all frequencies CPU can Run:

245760,400000,480000,600000,768000,787200,806400,825600,844800,864000....

but no Under 245 MHz so if You use a Profile for Screen off From 19MHz to 254MHz, cpu Run everytime @ 245MHz...so there is an high consummation of energy :mad:

bye
[HD Mini Android Development] tzacapaca:
hi

as codiak said earlier lowering CPU(underclocking) doesn't have so much impact on battery life..he also explained you why..if you want i will explain you too

explanation:run CPU at low voltage,open an app or downloading an email,etc= CPU will take time to get to the level app needs,display will stay longer while it CPU will get done the job= worse battery life

Undervolting will have impact on battery life

explanation:run same CPU clock at lower Voltage= CPU will use less power=better battery life

hope it's clear enough for you now,and if anyone else thinks i'm wrong feel free to prove me i'm wrong:)

P.S. Anyway i asked devs and they will lower CPU to run @ less than 245 Mhz.

Enjoy:)

Hi Guys,

I tried to install the Asus MyWater Livewallpaper from:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1048959

Heres a video of it working on the Xoom:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wlRVPOEW1qo

The Signed version installs fine, but after selecting it for my homescreen, the background image loads up fine, but the icecubes/water are just white. At least the rotation detection works fine.

I have also tried some modified versions from:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1116105

but they also have the graphics glitches.

Could this be due to a driver issue? Has anyone else had any luck with these?

BTW, running Overcome Kratos 3.1.0, and tried on GoExplorer, ADW and Samsung home.

Thanks for any input!

Same here, stock Gingerbread with Chainfire kernel.

[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] donaldson:
So it kinda' works on gingerbread. It doesn't work on froyo at all.

I am pretty sure that the MyWater livewallpaper depends on new api and api changes that are only present in honeycomb.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] LordLugard:
Actually the reverse was the case for me. It used to work for me on Froyo 2.2 but not so well on GB 2.3.4.

I'm not into LWP's anymore. I find them a waste of system resources and battery life.

Remap Search Softkey To Camera .... is there one specifically available for the Evo?? It would be great to have a designated camera button :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bezeek:
Edit the file /system/usr/keylayout/supersonic-keypad.kl. The first 8 lines (without a # preceding them) define the action assigned to each key, and its behavior.

Just find the line that calls on the SEARCH action, change it to the CAMERA action, then reboot. (I gave it a quick try, and while the search button does launch the camera, it only does so on long-press.)

Some info about this can be found here.

Additionally, CM7 ROMs allow you to define custom actions for the search key, on tap and on long-press.

Apps make a great alternative to modifying files directly, especially considering it's easier to reinstall a few apps that make changes for you than it is to remember how to perform all your mods after an update or ROM change.

Android would unlock the real potential of this device and will continue to evolve where webos is dead.
[WebOS Software and Hacking General] justinredding:
I like my Iconia tab for the most part (except for the fact the keyboard is running slow and not showing up very quickly as I am typing this). I want to see how well the webos really backs up your apps. The rom manager that supposedly comes with it is suppose to let you change roms without having to wipe the tab. The main thing I want to check out is webos doctor. It is suppose to be able to bring back an unresponsive tab and restore it to the last save point some how. I have tried to find more info on this, but it has been a challenge trying to use an internet search for something with the same name as the mouse on a laptop.
[WebOS Software and Hacking General] TravisAntonio:
WebOS already has the potential, even more than Android, Android only owns all the APP that WebOS, I bet you never used a WebOS device.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spireite_uk:
I'm sure this is question that I SHOULD know the answer to, but I don't so I'm hoping someone can help me.

It's a question regarding streaming data usage. I'm a Spotify user and I just wondered how much data it will use streaming my music over a 3G/mobile data connection.

I have a 100mb limit with O2.... will it get nowhere near that, even with heavy use... or do I have to be really careful?

Is there a figure like '30 mins music = 30mb'?

Thanks in advance guys. Sorry if it's a bit of an idiotic question.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonny68:
Not 100% sure about Spotify but i played a few mixes (just a few mins of each mix) on Soundcloud and in about 15 mins it used up about 130MB:( thankfully my carrier Meteor have a special promotion on top up €20 and get 1GB of Internet free which was a relief or id have been charged a fortune as usually i only get 50MB for 69C a day and if you go over that you pay,im in England at present and use Giff Gaff so have unlimited data which is great, if i were you id keep a very close eye on your usuage if you only get 100MB (i assume that's daily and not monthly)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Steffe2:
It uses quite a bit actually, I got text messages from my operator a day or two after changing operator that I had used 90% of my cap (1GB), after foolishly syncing while at work (using 3G).

If you're talking about the four bottom icons with the app drawer icon at the far right then you can change it quite easily. Just open the app drawer, hit menu then edit. You can drag and move whatever you'd like to the bottom area. Home/Applications must stay though.

Hi, i have rooted my gs2 with the CF-Root method which also installed CWM app which i could see and launch from the app drawer....

However i have just flashed villainrom via Clockwork mod flash from zip method.

Since flashing villainrom, the CWM app that was installed by CF-root and in the app drawer has now dissapeared.

My question - is this normal? as now i cant use the app to launch CWM, but have to boot into CWM manually. I did do a nandroid backup and also a titanium backup, but as im a noob im not sure whats the best thing to do to get this CWM app back (if it's possible to get back).

Any help would be appreciated :) THX!

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dante of the Inferno:
I backed up all my apps in Titanium and CWM before migrating from EG22 to EH06. The new version works fine after restoring apps and data using Titanium. The problem is that now both of my RSS readers (D7 Reader and gReader) get stuck trying to sign into my Google Reader account. The odd part is that the widgets seem to update the unread count, but I can't actually read them because the apps themselves won't move past the sign-in loops. I've tried deleting the data for the apps, and I've event tried uninstalling and reinstalling the apps, but the issue still persists. Internet browser applications work perfectly, so I know that it's not my internet connection. My only conclusion is that something else in the phone software (something that controls app access to the internet or to Google accounts) has the problem. As such, I should be able to go through Titanium and freeze/wipe anything that could cause the problem and proceed from there. However, I don't know where to start isolating the culprit.

Any ideas?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AproSamurai:
After you completely uninstall both apps go into /data/data and see if there are any leftover files for the apps if so delete them. And then reboot and reinstall and let me know what happens. I had it happen to me sometimes filesystem changes such as that retain their problematic nature until rebooted a few times.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dante of the Inferno:
Same sign-in loops as of early this morning. I'll try Odin'ing back to stock EH06, and trying again from there.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dante of the Inferno:
I've gone all the way back to Odin the stock EH06. I then flashed maddoggin's CleanBlue mod, and used Titanium to only restore any apps that weren't already loaded onto the phone. This should have stopped any system files from being overwritten. From there, I tried to open the D7 Reader. Same sign-in loop. I uninstalled the program, looked for any lingering data files (there were none), restarted the phone, then reinstalled the app. Still the same sign-in loop.

Am I missing something here? I've tried everything I can think of to isolate the problem, but there has to be something lingering that I'm missing.

Any other thoughts?

EDIT: Google Reader (the source) logs in fine, as does Pulse (3rd party reader). That means that it HAS to be something deep in Data concerning D7 and gReader that I'm unaware of.

Hi there xda developers, I am here in need for a help from you ?

I need to brick down my GS2, but so it still has a warranty - how to do that ?

Please help - and big thq allready :)
[Galaxy S II General] Archer:

WTH does "brick down" mean?
[Galaxy S II General] JJEgan:
You are asking to brick your phone that is make it unworkable and of no use ????

Thereby return the phone to the seller .

jje
[Galaxy S II General] edugarsb:
Yes, I need to make it unworkable the way that I want it to be is that it wont turn on.

I can't just return the phone to the seller, because they won't take it back - reason is that it's allready activated on the network (registered), that's why they are only going to change the phone if it will have some kind of disatvantage.

So please give me some advice :)
[Galaxy S II General] EarlZ:
Disadvantage?

Just tell them that its not meeting your expectation/poor battery life/yellow tint on left side of the screen, it would be easier that way instead of bricking the device.
[Galaxy S II General] rbimdxe:
don't know if this should be discussed here as it could be classed as fraud..

intentionally damaging goods so as to claim a manufacturers warranty.. watch out..

obviously lots of people do it, but not sure they're silly enough to discuss it in a public forum - and request help.. hmm.
[Galaxy S II General] Psilocin:
This is probably the best method and least harmful method to go with. I would suggest going to a different store location than the one that you bought it from as the store personnel will not recognize you if you had already asked about returning the phone in the first location.
[Galaxy S II General] nobnut:
Whatever you do, you will need to reset the binary counter with a Jig or something else.
[Galaxy S II General] pulser_g2:
So you want advice on how to commit fraud?

Not a chance mate. Buy it somewhere better next time. Read the rules. Fraud (including warranty fraud) is illegal.
