I would appreciate if anyone can advise any experience in freezing any of the below system apps. I managed to achieve a significantly longer battery life by freezing the above list of app without any noticeable impact on my SGT functionality. Now I would like to try freezing some more but want to build upon any existing experience instead of starting from scratch.

If you look carefully the frozen list in my first post includes some apps that are not to be touched as per the thread link provided by cheatman. Freezing apps does doesn’t seem to be identical experience for all of us and each should validate the impact of their own freezing. Might be simply I didn’t notice the impact since I do not use some of the features. Or maybe I did notice it but didn’t attribute it to the freezing.

Also I am again asking for your experience if you froze some of the apps that are on the don’t touch list in the thread provided by cheatman. I would like to know what issues if any you noticed. I may be willing to accept them or may not even notice them due to not using the functionality. All this is for the purpose of gaining battery life.

Besides freezing apps in order to gain battery life I also UV and UC. As a result of any of these measures my SGT reboots 1-2 per week. Don’t ask me to pinpoint the reason for the reboot. I would not be able to say but find it acceptable as a trade off to a significant battery life gain.

Original post updated 29.10.2011

The lists now hopefully combine all the reported experiences with freezing apps. Please advise if any mistakes or missing.
[Galaxy Tab General] cheatman:
Congrats on the list MutantWizard! My list was intended to be "n00b friendly" and although you can freeze many system apps indeed, they were reported by Android System as depending on them. I also tried to make a point in explaining what the apps do because sometimes not all of them make sense :-D

Anyway, I run a completely custom variant of freeze/uninstall that also includes systems apps as well, so great job on this thread as it brings everything up to date!

If you keep it updated with all Android versions that can be run on the Tab, that'll also be extremely nice!

Cheers and congrats!

[Galaxy Tab General] MutantWizard:
Thanks will try to include in the list system apps from all contributing users regardless of the ROM version. From my side I am a dedicated Overcome user and will contribute further findings on system apps found in this ROM.
[Galaxy Tab General] MutantWizard:
Original post updated 30.10.2011

Please advise if you notice any mistakes or missing apps.
[Galaxy Tab General] MutantWizard:
BetterBatteryStats reports the following as the biggest power consumers from system side. Please advise if any idea which apps are they so I can try to freeze or uninstall them and see what happens.

kswapd0

suspend

kondemand

dhd_dpc

mmcqd
[Galaxy Tab General] MutantWizard:
Original post list updated 04.11.2011, Added 3-4 to the can freeze and 1 to can't freeze.

Also added a couple items to the previous post, They appear to be relatively large battery users from the system side. If any of you have any idea what they are please help me identify them.
[Galaxy Tab General] alroger:
Those should not be played with and should not cause battery drain.

kswapd0 - memory swap, shouldnt even be used if you got a 512MB+ RAM device. maybe used if you got less RAM, and the solution is to get some stuff out of memory, uninstall, freeze or use autostarts to disable the apps autostart.

mmcqd - sdcard driver, if you are swapping memory all the time this will go up just like kswapd0 - that means intense read/write of memory card.

suspend - power management, probably.

kondemand - cpu governor auto-adjust for performance/power savings.

dhd_dpc - some driver related to modem/wifi?

I would:

-disable and enable wifi several times to check dhd_dpc.

-update ROM, those symptoms seem to be old from Froyo and Eclair.

-maybe check if you got the best modem.bin for your phone/carrier.

[Galaxy Tab General] sirsmedley:
Thanks for putting in the time so us noobs have a source for removing/freezing these bloatware apps. As soon as I have some time I'm doing this to my GT.
[Galaxy Tab General] MutantWizard:
You are welcome.

Im a noob as well and the list helps me also when I am refreezing after ROM upgrade. Just updated the list adding 3-4 apps I managed to freeze without any noticable issues.

In reality I really don't know where else to go I know that there is normally every time that you connect your phone it leads you straight into the Usb Storage now when I connect it. It just go straight into charging mode is there anything. Adb shell won't and I have to wipe it by tomorrow to send it our to Best buy! Help Please!
[Nexus S General] Rem3Dy:
Is it rooted? If not wipe from the bootloader?
[Nexus S General] matt2053:
I had this problem. Here is how I fixed it. I deleted all Android phone and USB storage drivers from my computer. Then I plugged in the phone to USB. Then I quickly removed the USB from the phone while the computer was looking for drivers. Then everything worked fine again.
[Nexus S General] gouthamsn:
If it's just for wiping why don't u do a format USB?
[Nexus S General] gouthamsn:
Oh I guess u wanna backup too... if u have wifi just connect via wifi and copy files... u can access ur comp from es file explorer on wifi
[Nexus S General] shogunn:
Wow I had this same problem about a week and a half ago. I never did find a solution. I tried multiple computers. I couldnt even unroot it because the computer did not detect it even in fastboot mode. I ended up sending it back to samsung to be repaired.
[Nexus S General] derekwilkinson:
What data are you trying to backup? I would go into recovery, wipe data/cache, reflash the ROM, then test it.

You can backup apps/settings with titanium backup before you wipe.

;)
[Nexus S General] Haizum74:
Hey buddy youre not alone, mine is doing the same. Get a USB device not recognised error. Not found a solution yet
[Nexus S General] anaglich:
I too am not able to achieve a data transfer. I am running cm7 nightlies with Matrix kernel. Thought it was my cable going bad - replaced it and still no luck.
[Nexus S General] SA-07:
I'm assuming ur on bfs

Bfs causes this. Go cfs
[Nexus S General] corythug:
I've tried it all to get my phone connected. It only works in bootloader.
[Nexus S General] vdub804:
I had this problem I fixed it by removing the battery plug usb to phone and computer then reinsert the battery then turn on the phone. I ran into this problem when I upgraded to 2.3.7
[Nexus S General] anaglich:
I am on CFS. Never even tried BFS.
[Nexus S General] jaestreetss:
Ihad that same problem the only fix for me was calling sprint then they sent me to a repair shop which COULDN'T fix it so they mailed one to the repair center & I got a new one
[Nexus S General] anaglich:
Fixed mine with some serious cleaning of the USB port. I also tried buying a new cable, downloading drivers, etc. in the end, it was just a bad connection.
[Nexus S General] corythug:
I've tried many cables, almost positive mine is a pure driver issue.
[Nexus S General] cheesiepoof:
I've tried absolutely everything in this thread. Lost USB connectivity completely on my phone. Doesn't matter what machine, what OS, or what cable, or what drivers are installed. I'm assuming it must be a hardware issue at this point. Doesn't even work in bootloader.

For those updating OTA to 2.3.6 via OTA and needing to re-root their phones, make sure you're not having this issue. Being stuck without root is a pain in the ass!
[Nexus S General] anaglich:
Clean your USB port on your nexus! Clean it well.
[Nexus S General] cheesiepoof:
Good advice actually. Scrubbing it with a dry toothbrush + using a a brand new 3 inch USB cable made the sucker finally connect.

Must have been a combination of bad cables and poor USB port hygiene :rolleyes:
[Nexus S General] anaglich:
Yep, had to take a knife, brush, and alcohol swabby to mine.
[Nexus S General] echodarko:
Its's Worked...

I did this and Nexus can mounted :)
[Nexus S General] PKking:
Hey,

I just spent all day working on this and it finally worked out. I'm not sure which step fixed it so I will just post all the steps I took today. I'm on Win7 64-bit. In no particular order I;

Made sure that it wasn't the cable or the USB port (I checked on a friends computer and then with his samsung phone, using my cable).

Deleted all the instances of the android driver (using USBDeview).

Uninstalled PDAnet

Cleaned out my phones mini/micro USB connector (it was actually suprising how much **** was in there)

Bent the connector up a bit using a knife

Re-installed both Google and Samsung phone drivers (Samsung I got from PDANet's site and Google with the SDK kit under "extras")(In retrospect I am reasonably certain I only needed Google's drivers but I'm including both just for completeness sake)

Once I had done all of those things, I tried restarting my computer with the device attached in order to re-install the drivers. Unfortunately windows gave me a notification that said "Usb Device not recognized". I figured this was progress though, as before it hadn't been recognizing the phone before. Unfortunately there wasn't anymore I could do from there. At this point I unplugged the device but I left the computer on.

After doing those things I did the last bit of trouble shooting that I could find on the internet and that was "pull the battery for at least 5 minutes" (in my case it was closer to 10 minutes). I put the battery back in the device and then plugged it into my computer and lo and behold I heard the "USB device connection" sound play twice, and then it popped up driver installation dialog and installed the drivers successfully. I'm not sure how it worked but I'm sure glad it did (from now on I'm keeping the stock android backup files on my phone so that I can flash it and lock the bootloader if **** like this happens again). If anyone can explain this better I'd be happy to know what fixed it, but for now I'm going to go make supper because I'm ****ing hungry.

Good luck!

Is it possible to port honeycomb to ipad2/ipad ?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WastedJoker:
This is the kind of question that makes Steve jobs ill!

I think it would be possible but there'd need to be custom hardware drivers written + jailbreaking/rooting the ipad2.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willioth:
lol... and probably.. brick ur ipad
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sageDieu:
It will likely happen eventually. You can install froyo and dual boot it on older model iPhones and iPod Touches.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theonew:
Not necessarily. Just like what sageDieu said, I've done it for my cousin on his iPhone 2g and it worked. So it may be possible eventually.

I plan on deving but am waiting for cm7 and some aosp kernels as I will build off of cm7 base

I might be wrong but without an unlocked bootloader how do you plan on running anything but the moto kernel?
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
I was wondering the same thing. If he has a way PLEASE share lol

that would be awesome if there was another way lol.

COME ON PUDDING!
[Motorola Droid X2] dragonzkiller:
As unfortunate as that may be (and it is really unfortunate) my CM7 work is going to be based on Moto's kernel because I have no choice in the matter atm. That being said, it only takes a few tweaks to make a new boot.img that can be flashed to the phone if and when we get an unlocked bootloader.
[Motorola Droid X2] mistawolfe:
Wouldn't it work using 2nd init, similar to the OG X?
[Motorola Droid X2] bswides412:
Just out of curiosity, For unlocked phones, is the cm7 ROM use the same kernel for all phones? Or is it tailor made for a specific phone?

Saw the D3 is now unlocked....I am so hoping there is a similar exploit on the bionic!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] ashclepdia:
Unlocked? You mean root available?

Not a bootloader unlock as I have seen. Am I wrong?

I have seen that it has been thought the root exploit should work on the bionic as ut is a vulnerability in moto phones that is being used.

In theory the same method should work. Let's cross our fingers

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] calif11:
Hi, getting a SGS2, have a few simple q's. Appreciate any feeback:

1. Looking at SGS2 I9100 labeled 'Made by Samsung' (no date, apparently made for EU) vs. another one labeled 'Korean product' (dated 7/2011, made for South America). Anyone aware of any hardware differences of such models?

2. Can I flash any firmware on I9100 regardless of what is installed originally?

3. How to know which languages a firmware supports (I understand CSC settings are not about languages)?

4. Does anyone have feedback of what currently is the most stable and efficient firmware version (stock or non-stock)?

Many thanks!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicregi:
1. Samsung has factories world wide. Therefore, it is hard to determine that. Only guys in Samsung can tell you that exactly.

2. Yes

3. Try it out? As far as I know, all are stock and default. Means what have in phone A should be in phone B.

4. Total self preference.

Soooo ....I tried to install the update from OTA and my phone is now stuck in a failed to boot mode /starting rsd services screen......anyone help me out real quick? This is my first MOTO since the star tac , ive been strictly htc since the mogul....im rooted other than that ive done nothing else to the phone.....
[Motorola Photon 4G] sub2k1:
If it is "Starting RSD Services" then your phone is not bricked. Assuming you can't make it boot any other way, you can load up RSD Lite on your pc, connect the phone via usb, and flash the latest SBF which will completely reload your OS. Granted you are going to need the correct drivers to do this.

Now, I'm wondering if you've done anything to this phone prior to applying the OTA update or was the phone completely stock? If it was stock and you did not unlock the bootloader then I'd just return it to Sprint and let them take responsibility for it. Otherwise you can do the repair yourself but only at your own risk...

I've posted the basics below but feel free to click here to go to the actual thread which explains this. I recommend you make sure your phone is charged before doing this.:

RSD Lite and 32 Bit Drivers (Install the 32bit drivers if you are running a 32bit Windows OS)

64 Bit Drivers (use these instead are running a 64 bit version of Windows.)

Latest SBF

1. DL and install RSDLite and Driver package from link above

2. Power down your phone

3. On your phone hold vol up and power till you see RSD at the top of the screen

4. Launch RSDLite from your program menu on your pc/laptop

5. Press the “. . .” button next to the box labeled “Filename”

6. Load up the SBF file you extracted from the MR download

7. Plug your device into your computer RSDLite should recognize your phone right away if you installed the drivers from this link i provided

8. Press the “Start” button

9. Be patient...takes a while...will reboot a couple times so grab a beverage of choice...use the restroom...take out the dogs...whatever...

10. may require activation again...mine did so be sure you have a means in which to do so...web...phone to call sprint for programming...OTA...

11. Enjoy and hit thanks!!!

Don't thank me, thank Yay 4 Juggs, I took this from his thread. If you have further issues you should post them there.
[Motorola Photon 4G] unsane:
yeahried to flash the newest update, but now all it says is failed to boot 2 at the top of the moto screen...... Idk what now...???
[Motorola Photon 4G] stu5797:
make sure you have insurance
[Motorola Photon 4G] unsane:
why would i need insurance? this phone is less than a month old, and the thing dumped on me while flashing Sprints OTA system update.....pretty sure it is thier fault.......lol......
[Motorola Photon 4G] sub2k1:
The sbf update failed? Pull the battery for a few minutes then put it back and press and hold volume down while holding the power button. Does it say fastboot?

Also, you are within your return period so they will probably take it back unless you unlocked the bootloader. I don't think they'll take it back if it says unlocked at the top when you boot it, if it doesnt say that it should be fine because Sprint is okay with rooting. I wouldn't tell them you attempted the SBF though, just that the OTA update borked your phone.
[Motorola Photon 4G] unsane:
ok I got it thanks everyone.......rsd failed to flash because my battery was lower than 50% .......i charged it and it flashed the first time with no problems......i dont understand why you have to re register your phone after the rsd flash though.....Motorola Android phones are wierd
[Motorola Photon 4G] sub2k1:
I'm glad to hear your phone survived. Yeah you definitely want to make sure your phone is charged whenever you do any sort of modifications to the system/bootloader/recovery partitions. As for the reactivation, its not bad once you learn your MSL number you can do it yourself without needing to call Sprint. I'm thankful your phone didn't brick. lol
[Motorola Photon 4G] mrichter1988:
My phone also was recovered after doing as outlined by Yayy . Don't go into RSD with a low battery or you WILL pay the consequences.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Nickdroid86:
I tried doing this and my battery died... Now I'm not sure where to go from here. I either charge it from the computer and ONLY the green led lights up and then like 10 minutes later the phone automatically comes on and says failed to boot 2, starting rsd, battery too low to flash. Or I can plug it into my wall and the phone automatically comes on and says the same thing immediately. Which way should I do this?
[Motorola Photon 4G] deedscreen:
You may want to look on ebay for a Motorola Photon 4G / Droid 3 Battery Charger for a few bucks/no shipping cost. Order the charger, rush shipping if you feel you need to, open the package, take the battery out of your phone, plug the battery in the wall with the charger, and wait until the light changes from red to blue/green and continue from there.
[Motorola Photon 4G] spleef:
no other ways to get it to charge? tried to relock and ended up with this problem didnt realize mt phone was so low and now all i get is the failure to boot 4 starting rsd battery too low..... sucks to be me just got this phone through ebay so would have to pay the fee to get new one from insurance if i cant fnd a way to charge this thing really dont want to have to buy another battery or charger old lady already mad i got such a picey phone and screwed with it and screwed it up...ha ha oh well
[Motorola Photon 4G] Jmaserang:
I cut the end off of a charger stripped the red&black wires placed red on pos blk on neg of battery and plug into wall for about 20 min the battery started getting warm but this worked for me
[Motorola Photon 4G] jokersax11:
In rsdlite uncheck the delete on exit box. It will save your battery
[Motorola Photon 4G] gr33nd3vil:
I thought if it was semi-bricked you could still charge it?
