[Motorola Photon 4G] shabbypenguin:
Ok since there is no Q&A section and this is sorta development but not directly.

anyways on every phone ive had we have always explored and learned what each partition was.. been looking around for a bit and i cant seem to find anything. so i guess the question begs how do we know where the kernel is etc etc...

/dev/block/mmcblk0p10 = recovery.img

/dev/block/mmcblk0p11 = boot.img

/dev/block/mmcblk0p16 = data

second as this will be my first moto android phone, what format are they? answered: Boot.img

im hoping by me posting this myself and others can learn from this
[Motorola Photon 4G] 27s:
I would like to know this as well, as I came from modding mainly HTC phones.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Jason_Thames:
Shabby knows this now, but Moto's use boot.img. Also, look at this tutorial by Egdan as the Atrix is very similar to out MoPho's.

I just wanted to start a thread where people can post their working UV settings for faux's newest kernel. I'm at -25 for everything and -75 for 216MHz, but I know I can go lower. What do you guys have?
[Atrix 4G General] DeathKoil:
One thing to bare in mind was people list UV values in this thread is that not all phones are created equal. Just because someone can get down to certain settings doesn't mean your phone can as well.

Also, make sure you don't check off "set at boot" in the undervolting section of setCPU (or whatever app you are using) until you know that the settings are safe.

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] woot1524:
I know this will sound crazy, but when I edit the build.prop file with root explorer to change the LCD density, then after a hard reboot the nook reverts to default settings. As in, I change the LCD setting to ANYTHING, and after a hard reboot the nook ALWAYS boots to 161 LCD density.

Soft reboots will retain my build.prop edits.

My just flashed the most recent nightly, had the same problems on the previous nightly.

I tried copying the build.prop file to my SD-card, then editing it, then deleting the one in the system folder, then moving the new/edited build.prop file into the system folder. This did not work as well.

Frankly I'm stumped.

Anyone else have any ideas?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DizzyDen:
Make sure you mount /system/ r/w in root explorer... somtimes people forget and just mount / as r/w but that doesn't work.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] woot1524:
Thanks for the quick reply, but I am only mounting /system/ as r/w. The file IS being changed, the actual change to the LCD density setting is there and persists. The nook just ignores it and loads 161.

EDIT:

I just tried adb pulling build.prop, changing the LCD density in notepad++, and adb pushing it back to /system. It still hard reboots to LCD density 161 no matter what I change it to.

EDIT2:

Here's an even crazier thing. When I adb pull the build.prop and open it, the LCD density setting says what I changed it to, but it's like the nook is disregarding that setting and defaulting to 161.

EDIT3:

Here's a link to my build.prop file and a logcat if anyone smarter than I can find anything wrong. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/20309200/build.prop http://dl.dropbox.com/u/20309200/logcat.txt

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoffcorey:
You have to overcome the fact that cm7 used mtd partition mount points, and stock vibrant uses bml blocks. The cm7 Kernel doesn't see bml, but rather mtd. And so just "making a flashable script" just won't cut it, hence the reason for needing to odin back.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] INeFFeCTiVE:
Dammit, so why can you switch to mtd and not back to bml?... there is a file in the cm7 zip that switches it, called bml_to_mtd... so in theory there should be a way to go backwards... if i knew how to do that then there would be no need for this ... oh well... TO THE WEBS!!!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoffcorey:
It's all about the kernel.

There is a script that checks between bml and mtd, and flashes the kernel in prep for mtd conversion, then reboots and and sets up mtd.

And since you have mtd partitions, and you need odin/heimdall to flash a bml kernel and then you can flash a Samsung rom.

It's not the script, it's the kernel.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] INeFFeCTiVE:
So... I'm screwed ... or in essence I need the original kernel to setup bml. Well at least I'm learning something.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoffcorey:
Even if you had the original kernel, flashing it correctly is the problem.

I've been reading around about obtaining better battery life while the phone is idle. The #1 cause of higher battery drain is this thing called Fast Dormancy.

On the SGS2 you can turn off FD by dialing *#*#9900#*#* in the dialer. I tried that on the Atrix and nothing happens.

I just saw that too...I'm skeptical to freeze it, but what's the worst that can happen right?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zoso28:
It probably wouldnt kill your phone, but everything has risk so be careful.. have a nandroid ready. From what I've read though, it's a feature that helps save battery life so you might want to keep it.

The way it's described, it enables your phone to disconnect from the network quickly after a transmission, so not to waste battery life with unnecessary network time. But it also sounds like the app is written to help the network as well, so I'm sure there is a way it could be tweaked to help your phone's battery a little more, at the cost of the network's overall efficiency.

It's strange because FDCompleteTime doesn't really hurt me that much. It's always 4th or 5th on the batterystats list, and doesn't log much time at all. AlarmManager always tops my list, which is strange because I don't use an alarm on my phone.. It must serve another purpose.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranova:
yeah, I was out in a different area the past few hours and FD moved to second place while alarm manager took first.

At work, it seems like phone disconnects/loses signal for a second and instantly gets it back at random times. If thats the case while its sleeping, that may be why its #1 at work. I get perfectly fine reception at work, 3-4 bars no problem.

Alarm manager seems to be a universal culprit for phone wakes. FDCompleteTime may become 1st or 2nd depending where you are at and will only show off when youre not on wifi. If you are on wifi the entire day, FDCompleteTime will not show up at all on the partial wakes (or it shouldnt)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranova:
Thanks, Ill give both of these things a try in the next few days and monitor the FD in partial wakes and the functionality of the phone. It would be interesting if anyone with cyanogenmod Alpha can show us their top wake locks. I really think it may be a Motorola software bug.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shanghei:
Heres my partial wakelocks on the latest cherryblur. it was on 3g the entire time (no wifi connection). FD was #1, as expected
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranova:

Its only been 2.5 hours but "FDCompleteTime" does not show on the partial wake lists at all and the battery status screen shows very little phone wakes!

As for Alarm manager, its still there, but it seems its not waking the phone as much.

Ill see how the battery is by the end of the day
