Figures I forgot to upload it - fixed :)

I changed it so it only contains the vending.apk without MarketUpdater.apk, because it started pulling updates over and over on 209 and I though I'd smash it lol

jacklc000:

The Smartass governor was fine-tuned and will do far better job than Ondemand - in both performance and battery. If you really need extra battery and don't mind sacrificing some performance, some user reported great results with Scary governor. Ondemand will by its nature completely ruin smoothness of user experience by scaling down preemptively and can't hold a candle to Scary that has both better performance and battery life.

MIUI parts?

In the part where you are telling of the modifications you have made to the ROM you say you've added "MIUI parts"

What exactly did you add, just out of curiosity?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] nik3r:
MIUI Camera and Compass.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Nshih422:
New 227 is really fast but battery life isn't that great for me. I mean its much better than normal CM7 but I used to get about 24 to 36 hours on a full battery, now I have about 25% after 13 hours. When screen is off I lose about 1% for 5 hours, when I use the phone however its about 5% or more an hour. On a phone call I lose about 40% an hour. Its strange. Anyone else have any feedback on this? Maybe its my battery?

EDIT: I didn't mean isn't that great compared to anything else, just compared to what I used to get with this rom.

Note: I turned all haptic feedback settings to off. UV slightly, and matched speed settings to fit UV patterns. Max speed set to 940 mhz. Lowered all of the keyboard light settings, that were greater than 0, to 1 and button settings to 1 instead of their original values.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] trsanning:
I have had worse battery life since the upgrade as well but the majority of my drain has been cell standby so i have chalked it up to tmobile thus far
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] nik3r:
Well I too have noticed worse battery life than 209

Today:

27 minutes total on Navigon in car

24 minutes total active camera

about 6 hours of music playback

3 short calls and a few texts/emails

about 40 minutes of browsing

whole time on IMO

2:40h screen on, mostly wifi

------------------------

Total 12,5 hours off charger and I'm at 21% left, busy day is no excuse - 209 would still have 30% left :D

Since the changes from 209 should in theory increase battery life, I think it's either the new base or the new base-old kernel combination. Performance aside, anyone willing to do a quick test on Tiamat over tomorrow?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] trsanning:
I will test out the Tiamat kernel in your second post tomorrow but not sure I'm the best tester during the week because I have real spotty coverage at work and can easily be down to 50% after only 5-6 hours. I have to do most of my testing on the weekend. If there is anything else you want me to try out let me know.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] trsanning:
Now to build a new undervolting table for the frequencies in tiamap not in umaro.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] gkenga:
Let me know when your finished, I would love to take a look since I flashed Tiamat as well instead of Umaro
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] trsanning:
I couldn't get Tiamat to run stable even before building the new undervolt table. It was freezing up an and wouldn't ever go into deep sleep. It also appeared that the OC daemon was controlling my CPU even though i have setcpu installed and active. I just flashed back to Umaro. I may take a stab at Tiamat at a later time.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Palingenesis:
Best rom i've used. Hope it stays up to date. :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] gkenga:
How do you get SetCPU to control instead of OC Daemon?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Palingenesis:
Crackle isn't working. Is it this rom? I can hear the movies playing, but no picture. I have flash player. Not sure what the problem is.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] trsanning:
By definition of the OC controller if you have any other cpu handler installed (i.e. Setcpu) the OC should disable itself. I didn't see it doing that. I would suggest freezing it with titanium.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] trsanning:
I have never used crackle before but I downloaded to test and I received sound but no video as well. I then tried my U-verse app and it worked just fine. Have you tried crackle on stock CM?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] nik3r:
Is it possible you updated the flash player to v11? It has issues, some apps can't see it properly yet. I included latest flash 10 because 11 wouldn't get detected by current Opera version. If not, try the reverse, backup current Flash and try to update it to 11 if it resolves the issue.
[Dell Streak 7] brown14you:
I recently bought a Dell Streak 7 4G T-mobile on eBay, how do I get a SIM card for it? I have never used a SIM-based telephony service and have no idea how they work. (I have always been a Sprint customer).

Any help will be appreciated. Basically, I would like an affordable pay as you go service. No contract.
[Dell Streak 7] Smurphjw:
I'm not 100% but prepaid might not work for mobile broadband
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
Buy a prepaid tmo phone and take the card out of it, weither or not it will allow data is an entirely seperate thing.

You CANT make normal cell type calls with the s7, it doesnt have the hardware for it. You CAN use voip calls fine though
[Dell Streak 7] stevedebi:
They offer the same prices without contract, just go to store or call them. I'm on the $29/ month with no contract. This is for data only.

EDIT: The 4G model should have come with a SIM card. Did you check the slot?
[Dell Streak 7] F.T.P.:
Im use my phone as a hotspot and connect through wifi... Seems to be working fine so far.. Guess it depends on ur phone n service tho... Just sayin its what im doin atm..

just picked one of these myself..and liking it so far,how about u?

BTW I saw the prepaid sim cards for t-mo on sale at my local radioshack...it was $9.99
[Dell Streak 7] Babydollll:
They are 6.99$ on the t-mo website (SIM cards)
[Dell Streak 7] F.T.P.:
Dang radioshack, what a markup huh...
[Dell Streak 7] brown14you:
Thanks guys for all your responses. Please keep'em coming.

Thanks. I bought the tablet on eBay. The seller didn't leave the SIM Card with it. I have checked the slot. Your plan will not work for me. Although it is not on contract, I doubt if my monthly usage will justify paying $29. I would rather pay for just what I use and load up as I go.

I have a rooted HTC EVO 4G and I use it as a Wifi hotspot on rare occasions. I have already done that with this tablet and it works like a charm. Considering EVO's poor battery life when used as a Wifi hotspot, I would rather want an affordable SIM solution.

I saw lots of SIM Cards on eBay for 99cents. I just don't know which of them will work for me.
[Dell Streak 7] stevedebi:
So far as know T-Mobile does not offer prepaid plans by the minute; only by the data usage per month. Those pre paid cards are for voice phones.

EDIT: I mean they don't offer those by the minute plans for the S7.
[Dell Streak 7] stevedebi:
I recently went on vacation and used my S7 on the freeway to look up stuff while driving. That is not possible with WiFi, and it is this convenience that really makes it useful. I use it with WiFi at home. The T-Mobile plan come with unlimited hotspot connections, although I have not used that yet. My plan is limited in MB, so I don't use it as a hotspot.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ph03n!x:
If you have Google Voice - not the "call phone from gmail" version, the full fledged one with a phone number, you can send text messages over wifi.

It is right now only available in the US, but if you know how to find it, you can activate Google Voice from elsewhere too :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dublus:
UMA is alive and well on the HD2. I have the same situation you do at work with very bad signal but it doesn't matter. Voice and text is flawless.

A word of warning, though - we have 5 HD2's in our family that are configured exactly the same. Of the 5, 3 work without any problem at all with UMA calling and texting and the other two have this strange freezing problem. No idea why they are different because they shouldn't be.

Anyway, the thread with the app is here.

All credit goes to Tytung for his incredible work.

Also, if you're familiar with the original HotSpot @ Home calling, this does not support warm handoffs between cell tower and wifi signal and vice versa.

Hope this is what you were looking for.

I just recently installed MIUI 1.9.2 and I love it just like all the others.

I installed MIUI by following the guide below instead of the normal way i do it by wiping everything and re-installing all my apps and setting everything back up...pain in the rear.

http://forums.miui.us/showthread.php?9-GUIDE-Guide-to-flash-upgrade-MIUI-while-minimizing-USER-ERRORS-FC-s-reboots-etc&

I have found a couple of issues though.

One is that on the Market and in ROM Manager all the user review stars show up as only half filled (1-5). Even if it's 5 stars, all 5 stars are only half filled in.

It's not a big deal just more of an annoyance.

The other issue is in the SMS app. If i select more than one contact to send a text to it will display some Chinese characters after the names. If i select 2 contacts, it will display their names at the top like it should with a comma and the the number 2, but it will also have some random chinese characters.

Again not a big deal just annoying.

Any fixes for this?

Thanks!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] SoCalSpecialist:
i caught those too...but they're so minor who cares ya know.

in regards to the chinese char its been an on going issue since 8.26 i thought i was going crazy so i tried switching out the font....nope same **** diffrent font.
[General Questions and Answers] BenKranged:
Google has a history of censoring some searches. You can read about it here.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_Google#Censorship

They could easily make any search containing the term "apk" come up with zero results.

Yet they allow searching for paid apks this way.

Should they?
[General Questions and Answers] Rebellos:
Google shouldn't censor anything. First comes apk's, next torrents, and then sites which Google doesn't like.

It's the matter of people mentality if they pay for apps or not, not the matter of censoring something.

Yeah, it's also some kind of censorship.

It's based on complicated as hell algorithm connected with cookies system, even what you click on googleAds is influenting your search results order, but doesn't censor anything. Hopefully...

Google's just a search-engine. I don't want it to choose what I WANT to see and what I DON'T want to see. I think the same mindset applies to every other user. I doubt if this will help any user at all, except their own goal.

Now, what they should censor (or block) are the content farms spamming my Google search results. I'll be more than happy to let you choose that.

Hello everyone, first post here on XDA! About time... that damn search button answered all my questions over the past few months. I've done just about everything you can to this wonderful device, aside from developing. I've been trying to get into developing for android by self-teaching java via books. Sadly, it seems there is a long way to go...

Anyway, I recently moved to an area where reception outside my house is decent but once inside it's toast. For whatever reason I never tried an older radio. My thought was that the newest (2.15.50.14) would be the best (even though i read over and over to try them all!) and many devs recommended it for their rom. So I've come to terms with the fact that I LOVE coredroid v1.7 froyo and I will not have wifi calling on my device. I was bored and figured it was worth a shot to test out some radios. I went through all of the TMOUS radios found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=611787. Every radio I tested was the same if not worse... EXCEPT 2.14.50.02! The difference isn't dramatic but I'm now able to get one "bar" while downstairs in a split level house which wasn't possible before.

Sooo I remember searching and searching for someone who may have posted their location and which radio worked best for them in that location, hoping it would be near me. Then I started skimming threads just looking for american flags and hoping they had a state and radio listed. Maybe we can get a thread started where everyone can post their specific location and the best working radio for them in that location? Hopefully turning up more search results for someone looking for the radio they may have the best luck with. If not, that's cool... I tried! Thanks all.

BEST: 2.14.50.02

RUNNER UP: 2.15.50.14
[HD2 General] webvan:
That was a good idea, too bad it didn't generate more interest.

I'm not sure the location really matters though, the best radio should be the best everywhere?

Currently in Europe and was finding 2.15.50.14 weak (jo signal, dropped signal) so I switched to 2.12.50.02_2 on someone's suggestion, but it's not really better and I sometimes get hard freezes when it reconnects to the network...will try the 2.14.50.02 that seems to work well for you.

I am new to BeagleBoard and Android Development. Recently I had someone literally drop a Android Dev project into my lap. Sweet! He gave me a BeagleBoard and three main objectives. 1. Get android working on BeagleBoard. (completed) 2. VNC Server running without being "rooted" or needing ADB. 3. Ethernet over USB. (usbnet may work just fine) After extensive research I found no usable open source vnc server for Android. (I'm sure I may have missed something with Google or here on the XDA-dev forums. I'm thinking of porting a open sourced java based VNC Server over to Android and am needing suggestion and tips. My main questions is this, must a VNC server require root access to Android or is there a way around this. My client was pretty specific on this requirement. I am using TI-Android-Gingerbread-devkit on a BeagleBoard XM Rev B. the rom is on a 2gb sd card (would a 4gb be better as I may have to purchase that an invoice my client. Something I'd rather not do) So to reiterate, what would be the best way to get a VNC Server running on Gingerbread without the need for ADB or root accress? Thanks for all the great people here and thank you XDA Developers for having such a great site (also thanks for the HTC Inspire tuts that I'll need once I get my grubby hands on it after this project is over :))

My photon was on 5% about an hour ago... then it turned itself off. I plugged it in to the charger and a "white/faint yellow" LED comes on. Normally the photon doesn't have a charge LED so this certainly struck me as odd.

It has been sitting for almost an hour and still won't turn on.

I took the battery out and reconnected the charger and the white/faint yellow LED comes back on, even with the battery pulled out.

What is happening here? Has anyone seen this?

I've see green/orange/red LED flashes for diff things but never white.

- Put it back in so it's off

- Keep it plugged into the wall to charge it

Photon won't turn on anymore. White LED when plugged in

i have a refurbished replacement photon from best buy geek squad that i got last month. within a few days it was acting strange and randomly/often turning itself off. the battery was fully charged yet the unit would often times power down. this happened a lot the first few weeks. then last week the issue seemed to stop and it stayed on 24/7 as i charged it frequently. all was well until yesterday.

i dropped my phone from about 2 feet. the phone turned off and only the "m" boot up screen appeared after i powered on, then it went black. i had a fully charged battery in the unit when this happened. i plugged the charging cable into the phone and it kept booting up to this static "m" screen then turning off. the LED notification light went red and after numerous times powering on and off and resetting the battery (and sim card) i finally got a "5%" battery screen. a few seconds later it showed 100% battery then kept rebooting to the static "m" screen and shutting off again. then i started getting a "?" screen for the battery a few times and back to the 5% and it changed to 80%/100% very quickly and back to the blank screen. i left it plugged in overnight.

now the LED notification light turned white and the phone cannot be powered on. i tried another battery without any success so that shouldn't be the issue.

any ideas what to try next?
[Motorola Photon 4G] tommyb_:
same thing happened to me.
[Motorola Photon 4G] zeguym:
Try to fully charge your battery using portable battery charger.

When battery full charge, try to entering recovery mode. From off condition, press both power and volume down, press down until you find android recovery and press volume up button. After you see exclamation logos, press both volume up and down. Then select wipe data. Hope fully you can still entering recovery mode.

If you cannot enter recovery mode, try to enter RSD protocol.

step is, connect your photon to PC using cable data, press both volume up and power, wait until it show RSD Protocol, than flash it again.

How to flash using RSDLite is in development section, you can read there.

Hopefully its can work
