[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mayazcherquoi:
Hey guys,

I need help. My battery life is absolutely shocking. And yes, I have adequately calibrated my battery (which IMO shouldn't make that much of a difference).

Please share your tips for maximizing battery here! :)

Basically, when I call someone, I lose like 10% in about 10 minutes. Not good. And I like to be on the phone for hours on end.

Please help, and thus also help others!

P.S: I am using Wolfbreaks 2.3.3 ROM.

P.P.S: I have tried:

CPU Profiles

Setting Max Clock Speed to 576MHz.

Governor is interactive.

2G only (never 3G) on a 900MHz network.

Manually killed some tasks which may consume battery (rarely though, makes no observable difference).

I never connect wireless, and (background) data is disabled.

Brightness always at an all-time low.

Added some build.prop modifications (setting the WiFi scan interval to 5 minutes [300 seconds], just in case I enable WiFi).

No Bravia Engine/xLoud enabled (not even included in the ROM).

Undervolt kernel module (my phone never crashes).

NOTE: Aeroplane mode is not an option unfortunately :( I need my phone on an connected 24/7.

Other things to note about my use:

I don't ever listen to music.

I never browse the internet whilst connected to 3G.

I rarely connect to my WAP.

I rarely use the camera.

I rarely watch videos.

I occasionally (sometimes) browse the Gallery ( <100 pictures ).

Cheers guys! :)

Even I have recently installed wolf's rom and I find that the battery is performing lesser than before... :(
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wizoxt:
Did your battery encounter overheating issue before? I'm not an expert therefore I'm just capable to give advice :) As for me battery draining quite fast too when on call but on other time its just fine :p
[Wildfire General] biteyou:
I am a wildfire user from HK, and recently I rooted and flashed CM7 nightly by the procedure form 3xeno:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1029318

Following is my case:

Since I have already OTA updated into 2.2.1 froyo, I downgraded the HBOOT and rooted with revolutionary method. Then I flashed CM7 with no problem occurred.

However I used the setcpu to overclock my device into 768MHz and i ticked the set on reboot by accident. I cannot reboot into CM7 loading screen so I flash the CM7 rom again and boot my device successfully. Then I also flashed the most updated kernel provided by 3xeno above. I haven't pay attention to the signal service since this point, no signal can be searched no matter what I did. I have already checked the APN setting and also doesn't work. The battery drain very fast (cell standby 82%) unless I turn on the airplane mode.

I reckon this is the problem of kernel/radio, and some developer said flashing radio is risky, so I flashed the RUU rom from Shipped ROM instead. I have tried both froyo and eclair RUU, even though some of the eclair disabled the touch input, but all the RUU cannot bring my signal back. Since the RUUs i flashed were with different radio version. I can still see the baseband version from setting=>about phone=> software information. The wifi can work with no problem.I didn't know what's wrong.

I have googled a lot and read a lot of threads in xda but still no idea. I decided to send it for repair. What should I pay attention to it before sending it for repair?

Maybe I forgot to mention something

In setting=>about phone=>Phone Identity

Model number : HTC Wildfire A3333

Phone number: Unknown

IMEI and Device serial number: same as the label under battery

IMEI SV: 01

In setting=>about phone=>Network

Operator name: Unknown

Signal strength: 0

Mobile network type: Unknown

Service state: Out of service

Roaming: Not roaming

I have tested my device with my friendsss' SIM cardsss, and the problem still persist.

ALL of the SIM cards, including mine, work well on the other phones.

Moreover, when I press down+power button, some sentences shown up:

SD cheking...

loading.. [PC49DIAG.zip]

no image!

loading.. [PC49DIAG.nbh]

no image or wrong image!

loading.. [[PC49img.zip]

no image!

loading.. [[PC49img.nbh]

no image!

after that it returned to the HBOOT menu and all become normal. They keep shown up no matter what RUU or CM7 rom I flashed. Is it a normal case or a sign of losing signal??

I have also installed the darktremor for app2sd before i flashed back the stock rom from RUU.

Sorry for my bad English.
[Wildfire General] ErwinP:
Since you have s-off'ed your device with revolutionary, you have a custom bootloader, and thus no waranty anymore.. So it can and will cost you.

I don't know what is wrong with your phone.. perhaps stupid, but have you already tripple-checked your APN settings?

[Wildfire General] biteyou:

[Wildfire General] showlyshah:
As far as i know apn has nothing to do with ur network unless you enable/ use gprs/3g internet connection.apn means access point name, and so it have nothing to do with the calls or network. I think ur problem is with radio, as u have a3333 u can try flashing a new radio, and some ruu does not contains radio,if it is a moded one,so there are chances that u have used one of them, go for it , try a new radio.

And in worst case it is a hardware problem,in which ovclck had done some thing wrong with ur processor or the radio module(hardware).in that case dont try to get ur motherboard replaced by htc,since u r out of warranty it will cost u a lot, so buy a new phn, nxt time go for wildfire s.:-)
[Wildfire General] ErwinP:
Learned something new here :)

I would try the same as what howlyshah suggests: reflash your radio, without the whole blabla of RUU's.

You can try first the latest radio (ending with 20.10). If that doesn't work, you can try the one ending with 19.25.

The process is indeed not without risk, but so is s-off'ing and rooting your phone, and you did that already :) Just make sure that you have enough battery, you don't interrupt the process and be very patient (for example, it could be that the first boot takes longer than usual).

You can find the radio's in the wildfire index.

This is really really really normal. It is simply your bootloader searching for an update file. For example, if you are S-OFF and you rename an zip-file that you want to flash to PC49img.zip, the bootloader will automatically ask you if you want to flash that file (so no need to go into recovery). If you are S-ON, that will only work if the zip-file is signed by htc, of course.

Good luck!
[Wildfire General] biteyou:
Really thanks both of you! Finally I downgraded the CWM into v2.5.0.7 to flash the radio. I have flashed the radios ending with 20.10 and 19.25 and the problem still exists. Maybe it is the hardware problem.

Thanks so much but I am a little bit confused by what you mentioned "out of warranty". Since I am still in the warranty period, is it still eligible if I flash the RUU froyo asia HK and flash the HBOOT 1.01.0002(S-on)? Or are you talking about the motherboard replacing service is out of warranty and they will charge me for the motherboard?

I am decided to buy a better phone now, I think it is a really good excuse:D:D:D Thank you guys!
[Wildfire General] showlyshah:
Ya you have broken the security that htc implimented to protect their custom android os,which they use in wildfire,by s-offing ur phone.you can how ever fool them by flashing an ruu,and the s-on the drevice. I think there is some way to s-on the device.search the forum, u will find it, else flash an old ruu, like 2.1 or lower, connect to pc suite, update ur phn,and maybe htc will again update ur phone, and s-on it(i never tried it, but i think it will work,as most companies do the same like se,nokia etc), then you can get ur warranty back, save a bucket of buckz
[Wildfire General] ErwinP:
The alpharev hboot has a version number 6.x The hboot from alpharev AND from htc are protected against downgrading: you can not install one with a version lower then 6 ATM. So flashing a RUU will NOT work.

Btw, we didn't broke the security, the phone is still S-ON. But the hboot thinks it's S-OFF.

However, I tought I've read somewhere here on the wildfire section a way to downgrade the alpharev hboot to a htc one. So you can take a look indeed.

Erwin

EDIT: I've just read this in an other toppic:
[Wildfire General] biteyou:
Thanks to all of you! All of your suggestions are useful and I finally got my wildfire S-on(fastboot: flash into Hboot1.01.0001, then flash RUU and become Hboot 1.01.0002) and sent to HTC for repairing. Finally they replaced the main board and it now works perfectly.

I am so scared my device will be broken again, so I want to seek a full guide here before I S-off, root and flash a new ROM again because of some bug of the stock ROM.

Q.1

Sometimes when I receive a call, I cannot unlock the lock screen, seems the touch screen is not working while ringing. Every time I encounter this problem, I have to reply the call after the the device stop ringing. It is really troublesome for me. Is flashing another ROM the only solution for solving this problem? any ROM suggestion for this problem??

Q.2

Before I sent the phone to repair, the Hboot 1.01.0002will check for update:

(SD cheking...

loading.. [PC49DIAG.zip]

no image!

etc..)However after HTC sent me back the repaired phone I found that the Hboot now do not search for the update anymore. In case I break the phone again by S-off, rooting andflashing a new rom, I need to S-on the phone again. But I am quite sure that If I S-on the phone again, the resulting Hboot will search for update and therefore different from the original Hboot after the phone repaired.

My question is: Is this device in the warranty in this case?

Q.3

I am also looking for a ROM supporting APP2SD/APP2EXT/Dalvik-Cache2SD/DATA2SD/DATA2EXT system (I am quite confused with the difference between them even after googled, can anyone tell me that?), any suggestion of the ROM supporting it?

I have used Darktremor before my phone broke for the app2sd but It is quite difficult to use since it involves inputing some command in the terminal emulator (and so scared to break the phone again by this). Actually it is very good, but I prefer some user-friendly apps that can perform the APP2SD/APP2EXT/Dalvik-Cache2SD/DATA2SD/DATA2EXT system.

I found some apps, for example, simple2ext(S2E) and link2SD but I dunno the pros and cons between them.

My question is, which system moving apps into sd card is most suitable for wildfire??

Thanks for your help!!
[Desire General] Deeco7:
Yesterday, I decided to flash a MIUI (beta) rom, but I am stuck on the 'shiny android boot loading screen'. Before flashing the ROM I had Wiped all user DATA/CACHE/DALVIK-CACHE/EXT and all other as well as formatting my SD card to the following:

Swap Size: 0MB
EXT 4: 1GB

No matter what I do, whether it's pulling out the battery and leaving it or wipe cache again it just gets stuck on the same old boot screen doing nothing.

Here are my phone specs:

S-OFF PVT1 Revolutionary
HBOOT-6.93.1002
RADIO-5.17.05.23

I know I dob't have USB Brick because it works fine and I can boot into Recovery and Bootloader/FastBoot. I don't understand why this has happened as I had flashed a MIUI ROM 2 months agao and everything went well, it could be that my H-BOOT is different or I have S-OFF.

Please help me resolve this issue.

Many Thanks.
[Desire General] davebugyi:
Latest version happened to do the same for me.

I just flashed it a couple of times. It works now.

The strangest thing was, that it was no bootloop or any error - it just sat there for infinity.
[Desire General] ste1164:
Does the Rom require a different hboot? Or might it need an ext 3 partition?
[Desire General] Deeco7:
Yes, that is what is happening here, but I flashed it several times and no go. The setup seems so quick to be installed...it only lasts 40 seconds and says it's complete.

I have no idea, surely not?
[Desire General] davebugyi:
I have alpharev sense HBOOT, but MIUI should work with all others (except for oxygen/oxygenr2)

I'd recommend to download the .zip again and check md5 sum - then flash again.
[Desire General] naf007:
Which version of MIUI is it that you flashed?

Mine has to have an EXT3 partition or it wont work ..
[Desire General] Deeco7:
EDIT:

/facepalm

I can't believe I expected the ROM to be installed just by flashing the 'Pack' which I didn't reliase is just an language pack. I thought the term 'Pack' meant everything including the ROM, lol.

ISSUE Ressolved. Thanks anyways guys.

Hi

After a long search it look like we can't have on external Sd card, NTFS or Ext4 files system.

The reason given for ext4 is " this file system is only for linux users" .. humm well and so 5 or 10% of users should ignore ?

but for NTFS i don't understand why we can't have choice to format external sd card with it ?

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blixem:
Hi all

I have an eee Pad 3G (TF101G) and a prepaid SIM. One option to top-up the SIM is by dialing a "special" number (#100*1*4#). This connects to a 3rd party that automatically bills my PayPal and debit my account. It is a similar operation as querying a device's IMEI.

The problem is: the TF101G does not have a dialer app. There is no way I can query the IMEI or top-up my prepaid with this technique.

Can anybody suggest a dialer app, or similar?

Note: I know how to get the IMEI, I'm just using it as an example. And I also don't care for other methods of toping up my prepaid.

Thanks!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sdsoundguy:
See if you can download dialer one from the market that might work, although not sure how you would dial out. You could try grove ip and google talk not sure if that would works that would would give you access to dialing out. Not sure though if you could fill the prepaid sim that way, it would be worth a try though.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frosty5689:
I don't think you can since the TF 3G will only have internet functions and no phone capabilities.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThickG:
I'm hoping someone can help explain to me the process for accessing a data network in India. I'm currently on a prepaid data plan with Airtel and while I get the H+ symbol, I still can't access the data network. I've searched and I guess I need to change/create an APN, however, I'm not sure how to go about this. I've called Airtel several times, but all they tell me is that the phone is too new and they don't know how to configure it.

So, essentially, what settings do I need to change to be able to access Airtel's 3g data network in India?

Hallo!

I have a mysterious Problem:

When i make a call than is the Display on and active - I can activate the speaker an so on.

IF i get a call the Display is aktive so long as i take the call. Then the Display gets dark and inaktive. So it´s inpossible to activate speaker or others. Pressing ANY! Key is not succesfull, intead the right - but THEN, the Call is over...

I tried the system, two other SimCards, Regitry-Hacks, flashing other Rom´s!

Nothing solve this Problem....

Mysterious: After flashing a new SystemRom, one or two times ist works, but than it´s like before.

ALL other functions are OK, so a hardware-Problem is unrealistic.

The HTC-support has also no idea (change the SimCard....).

It is NO other Software installed and i tried the original ROM´s from T-Mobile (win6.5) and some other Rom´s (like Duttys).

WHAT can I do?

[HTC EVO 3D] crunkdaddy11:
My evo 3d is rooted and is running viper rom with rc mix kernel. It wants me to do the system update but i am not sure how to go about this process. Do i just do the update, lose root, and then reroot using the new method? Do i have to unroot first? Do i just do a factory data reset? This is my first android phone so I am new to all of this considering i owned an iphone before. Any help would be appreciated.
[HTC EVO 3D] AyyRayy:
It's all good. You just need to wait a little. Basically the rom developers will take that system update and use it as a base. This takes time due to the fact that they need to ensure all of their features they have implemented still work. Also some developers wait to update until other kernel developers have a stable kernel that works with their rom. Long story short, just wait and flash your own updates.
[HTC EVO 3D] bpdamas:
Also, to add something, you don't actually have to wait if you have s-off. I didn't. I didn't even flash a rooted ROM. Basically, I flashed a stock recovery image, updated my phone just like normal, flashed teamwin recovery, installed su through teamwin recovery, and then rebooted my phone. I have root, s-off, and the most up to software/hboot/everything that came in the update. For more info check out these links.
