[Motorola Photon 4G] abrcrmdl23:
Why would you use those programs I'm sure they kill battery life faster I have lots of sync'd accounts on my phone and keep it on high performance and I get 16+ hours of battery with phone games and more if I turn on my custom battery setting from the stock battery manager I have gotten almost 2 days of life. You need to reevaluate bro battery on this phone is sick I even have an extra battery and have never had to use it.
[Motorola Photon 4G] anoroc44:
I used my phone moderately with some email usage, calls and a few games and i got about 13 hours of battery life and had about 6% battery juice left to spare. How are you getting som much battery life? Did you do anything with the Sprint Bloatware? Did you uninstall some apps or freeze the. P

Thanks in advance....
[Motorola Photon 4G] CCallahan:
I use Y5 to auto enable/disable my WiFi connections. Keeps the phone on Wifi as much as possible and I don't have to mess with it.
[Motorola Photon 4G] MoPho:
Juice defender does that. Before I had wifi constantly on, gps, 4g and battery wasnt what id expect. I mean ive never had it die on me yet but close. No frills controls clock speed depending on how much I need. Since ive installed juice and no frills battery is way better.
[Motorola Photon 4G] lroy:
depends on what im doing. If i plan to be using my phone in and out of my pocket alot, ill have juice defender turned on.

if i know im going to be talking alot that day, texting and not much need for internet, then ill just leave my 3g widget off for mobile network.

other then that, the phone has great battery life.

I must say, on my evo i got super annal about having full charge and wanting to keep charging it all the time. I swear id get an uneasy feeling in my stomach if it went below 50%. when i first got this phone and had the 10% marks instead of the 1% marks, my brain about blew up and i didnt know what to do! lol

but now ive began to like the 10% marks bc im not as annal about wanting to plug my phone in bc now i dont see the amount it dropped in the last few minutes.

in all.. i guess this phone was made for me, or like the windows 7 people "my name is logan, and i invented the photon" :)
[Motorola Photon 4G] Chitowncraig:
I'm in the same boat as you. I've been using/trying juice defender and have it set on balanced. It says I save about 1.5% every day. I have to email accounts syncing, text about 50 a day and use about 10min of internet and I was down to 40% in 9hrs. This was with out make a phone call today. Juice defender doesn't seem to really help anything.
[Motorola Photon 4G] bigbassbrent:
I use an app called Brightness Profiles from the Market. Used it on my old HTC Hero as well. Its a precise, quick and easy way to manually control the screen brightness. Most of the time indoors I have brightness set to 0 or 10% which is plenty bright for me and saves a ton of battery.
[Motorola Photon 4G] lroy:
I was just noticing the brightness of the Photon's screen last night just before fallin asleep. My evo on 0% was DARK in a dark room, but at 100% in the sun you couldnt see. The photon seems to be in a different ballpark. 0% it still looks super bright and 100% is WOW a light in the sky.

when i look at when my battery is being drained the most, its def when that screen is on. i think a rom or theme with black/night colors will def help out because the bright colors of white are probably not any aid to the battery conservation.

yesterday i kept juice defender off all day. got 14 hours and 37 minutes till it hit the 30% mark and the icon changed colors. i had about 2 hours of web surfing, about 3 hours of total call time, and about 150 texts and almost a dozen MMS. (buddy just picked up a new chocolate lab puppy :D)

so im impressed. i def agree, looks like juice defender is not a good fit for the phone yet. the toggling radios on and off probably kills alot of power.
[Motorola Photon 4G] jwchen:
I have to agree, Juice Defender doesn't seem to be doing much. I get around 1.47-1.6 with JuiceDefender.

Other than that I run SetCPU with my profiles set up.
[Motorola Photon 4G] abrcrmdl23:
I some times when I am at work use a custom battery setting which pots screen at lowest and disables data during peak hours after 45 minutes of inactivity. It works great especially when I am at work and have some longer breaks between checking my phone. I also work and live right next to a sprint tower so I always have great coverage.
[Motorola Photon 4G] MoPho:
I still need to use juice defender ultimate for about a week to get a good history from it but right now im at almost 19hrs to full battery drain.
[Motorola Photon 4G] TheNexxuvas:
Juice Defender, 36-38 hours before switching to 2nd battery.

Set to sync all every 1 hour. Twitter, corporate mail, 2 gmails, corp calender, contacts, etc.

The main difference is I set the screen to off in Juice Defender under toggles, not to trigger the data on just because I pulled the phone out and turned the screen on, doesn't mean I want to get on the web. I can easily pull up local info w/o that. In the morning, and in the evening, wifi is on for 30 mins or less each time to download podcasts on doggcatcher.

Lots of texts, calls , 150+ emails delivered a day, plenty of app usage, plenty of google.com searches. Maybe 1-2 app updates a day. Audio and video usage around 3-4 hrs daily.

I can go to work at 7:20 in the morning, get off at 5-5:30, and my batt stats are 75% left. Am usually sitting at 60-65% left by that 12th hour.
[Motorola Photon 4G] thegameksk:
Can you let me know what your exact juice defender settings are? I have ultimate juice defender and am lucky to get 8 hrs per charge,
[Motorola Photon 4G] Zor Omega:
That's because you actually use your phone. These people who claim 30+ hrs of battery just have it sitting around most of the day not doing anything on it...very minimal use. For people who bought a smart phone to actually use the "smart" features of it, they will see anywhere between 8 -15, of good use. Keep in mind these phone are only rated for 7-8 hrs of continuous use, max. I say, use it how you want, don't cripple your phone with auto killers and apps that turn your data off, that's the whole point of your smart phone is to consume and transmit data. Use it how its meant to be used and enjoy it!

[Motorola Photon 4G] fg3121212:
If you have root I would say autokiller memory optimizer. Has some cool features.
[Motorola Photon 4G] fg3121212:
Well said. My advice is just find a cheep aftermarket battery and keep it handy just in case.
[Motorola Photon 4G] kennypow3rs:
Why buy juice defender when the photon has these features built in. Just go to battery mode and chose "Maximum battery saver". After 15 mins it will turn off all syncing activity. Also when you're not using your phone turn off syncing completely it really helps your phone last 10-15 hours easily. I'm a very heavy user so while I'm at work I just turn off sync! Plus I also received a replacement battery from Motorola because my original battery had problems. I couldn't get more than 8 hours with the first battery (maybe defective) so they sent new one.
[Motorola Photon 4G] lojak29:
I agree with the post on people claiming 20-30 hrs.. they flat out dont google and drool over theyre screen all day.. like most others do though.. that is why batt life is always always will be a huge issue!

Nothing ever really will help kernels.. roms ...juice def..undervolting.. it really

dont make the huge diff people expect..

Samsung has about the best batt life youll find on an android device.. with the exception of a few devices.. dual core affects alot more than a noticeable benifit!

Only real option to date is a EXTENDED BATTERY!
[Motorola Photon 4G] foxsdaddy67:
funny ive never had any problems with my photon. it lasts all day and then some.

my moment and shift were lucky to last through the work day
[Motorola Photon 4G] chenchen:
usually i'm connected to WiFi all the time, and with that I have gotten close to 24 hours of uptime. This is with decent usage: calling, texting, etc. I've found that when I start to use my data though, the battery drains exponentially faster. Data uses more battery than wifi does
[Motorola Photon 4G] DualSportDad:
I don't understand how everyone has such short battery life.... I never use wiring, have my battery set to performance and my battery never dies. Its always full. Lol.
[Motorola Photon 4G] kennypow3rs:
Those stats clearly show that you're not a heavy user. A heavy user will usually get no more than 6-8 hours off full charge. Your phone has idled 51% while my phone never isles more than 17%. 10 hours when you're not really using it is nothing to brag over.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Zor Omega:
Right, you're idle time is 51%! Anyone who uses their phone a decent amount will have about

70% or so of screen on time...this is definitely nothing to Bragg about.

[Motorola Photon 4G] lucidvtec:
Kernels made a HUGE difference for my battery life on my EVO

Stock photon battery compared to my modded EVO are bout the same

I can't wait for the fully functional unlocked bootloader so I can try jokers kernel
[Motorola Photon 4G] DualSportDad:
You guys seriously think that after 11 hours of being on, with data, sync etc on that I should still have 100% charge? Come on.....
[Motorola Photon 4G] KTT16:
That's a pretty good point. Can we possibly switch batteries?
[Motorola Photon 4G] kennypow3rs:
Sneaky bastard lol
[Motorola Photon 4G] thegameksk:
Ive found Juice defender has made a huge difference for me. My battery lasted 11 hours yesterday 3 and a half of which was display time. I still had 10 percent left when I put the phone on the charger. My epic would be lucky to last 2 hours of screen time.
[Motorola Photon 4G] dante501:
I use the App extended battery. It does wonders to the phone ;-)
[Motorola Photon 4G] Lokifish Marz:
Your battery is miss calibrated. When properly calibrated your phone should immediately drop to 99% when pulled of the charger. Before anybody says it's wrong I'll explain why. The very instant you remove a device from the charger you are using the battery and therefore cannot be at 100%. Granted you may be at 99.99999% but you are still not at 100% and the battery meter should reflect this.

Accurate battery level reporting can be achieved by using apps like battery monitor widget to calibrate the battery info.
[Motorola Photon 4G] kennypow3rs:
Bring on the sbc kernels!!!
[Samsung Mesmerize] chilangopwn:
I sort of bricked my phone per say and now it will not go past the samsung logo so it doesnt actually boot.

I went to voodoo red recovery to disable lagfix so I may flash stock with Odin. I checked and it said it would disable on next boot. Since the phone will not fully boot it will not disable lagfix. Help on how to disable otherwise, please.
[Samsung Mesmerize] phince1:
Well if you put a file called "diable-lagfix" in your voodoo folder it will disable it. But the question is, what did you do to get it to not boot?
[Samsung Mesmerize] mezster:
Phince1 is right, you need to create that file and put it there. Lagfix isn't disabled unless you hear the voice talking you through it. In order to fix what you have done you will need to flash a full stock build via Odin (files and directions are in the stickies). I had the same problem once and 2.1 was the only build that corrected it, but I would still try the 2.2 ee19 if I were you just to save possible time.
[Samsung Mesmerize] scarmon25:
If all else fails flash the full EE19 Build in Odin with repartition checked. That will fix it for sure.

MOD A ROM is now RoMod for android

Might continue on windows version at a later time

MOD A ROM WINDOWS APPLICATION

*********REMOVED**********

Sorry everyone for the inconvenience, I have decided to make this a Android App. As soon as I get something working I will post here.

This is a standalone windows application that allows you to "Mod A ROM". You will be able to add/remove apps, replace boot animation, and modify apn settings. This app will also let you remove the radio from a SBF update zip, mainly for phones that are not on the Verizon Network. This will alleviate the reprogramming needed after other SBF's. Will also sign the ROM, only 1 variable to the jave/jre/bin folder has to be set.

Requirements:

-.NET Framework 3.5

-Java

-1.42 MB space for program

Near Future Releases will include:

-modify Build Prop

-boot animation viewer

-edit/remove/add multiple apns

Let me know if anyone would like to see anything else

Feel free to email me if you have any problems or questions.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Mello^:

I'm sure they have posted them and their effectiveness in the General section.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] weztcoazt:
ok im trying to upgrade to the evo 3d...called sprint n told me that on the 20th of sep. i would get the full upgrade..so i would only have to pay $200 for the 3d. since the option of also trading in my evo for $125 or $150 idk i forgot..do i have to unroot my evo or jus leave it as is?? has anyone done this already??
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cesarcerros31:
Best bet is to unroot it

sent from my HTC evolution running a freshly baked gingerbread with the 4gs in it
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Evo4gLI:
Since you're trading it in, you might as well unroot it, even though there's some stores that won't care, there are still those that might. So why not save yourself any potential hassle and just unroot it before you trade it in? Not like you're going to have it anymore anyway.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] weztcoazt:
alright i was jus curious but ill unroot it when the time is near...thanks for the great advice for u both

nice alternative to the HP case. If I didn't already have the HP case, I'd get that one. Only other case I've seen that doesn't cover up the whole bezel...

nice find

In another forum people that received this have been saying these are actually iPad cases rebaranded as touchpad and do not fit well.
[TouchPad Accessories] Adonis K.:
Every touchpad case ,except the officials, is iPad rebranded case :/
[TouchPad Accessories] antoniolopez90:
its true...

I dont know if I can post links yet but its a review on the case on youtube.

=Dta8K2XvO2U

just in case:D
[TouchPad Accessories] elimherr:
I use an Acase which I find is designed really well specifically for touchpad here is a review of it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FbHGqujieaE
[TouchPad Accessories] thegunslinger1:
Two of the Incipio cases arrived in the mail for me today, one black and one tan. They are actually pretty decent for $14.99. I do like the canvas over the fake leather ones I picked up.
[TouchPad Accessories] Adonis K.:
Did you order the Kickstand version? and did it look like the one from the video review 2 posts above?
[TouchPad Accessories] chrischoi:
They redesigned the case. It's a revision. If you look at the iPad one and compare it to the Touchpad one... The iPad one is flat on the inside where the Touchpad has a cut out for the camera.
[TouchPad Accessories] chrischoi:
FBFAN2011 gives you 15%.

Case is $14.99 and the shipping is free.

$12.74. I just got mine today. I ordered it on the 31st and got it today. 3 days all the way from CA. I live in PA. Incipio service is amazing. They offered to exchange the tan one I ordered for the black one since they just got them in stock. I was so impressed with the service and product, I went ahead and ordered another one.
[TouchPad Accessories] dmarchant:
It doesn't look like the Incipio case has the cutout for the ambient light sensor though.

It the case is held with the camera at the top there should be a hole in the top-right corner for the sensor. Otherwise, auto-brightness won't work (which I guess a lot of folks won't mind as the case looks very nice).
[TouchPad Accessories] chrischoi:
I actually got away from auto brightness.
[TouchPad Accessories] mshilly:
I got the ACase that is reviewed in the video. It is a bit more expensive but apears to be well built. While the video touts the hooked tab that holds the case closed, it sticks out the bottom when the cover is just folded back under. Otherwise this case is designed for the TP, fits extremely well, and seems to be of high quality and sturdy.
[TouchPad Accessories] oldsmobuick:
Thanks for the info. Mine arrived a couple of days ago. Pretty good for $15, but the camera and home button cutouts are off by about a half an inch. It's not perfect but much nicer looking than the depressing stitched leather case Aaron's bundled the TP with.
[TouchPad Accessories] chrischoi:
Can you take pictures?
[TouchPad Accessories] shaxs:
Does anyone know if this case works with the Touchstone?

Does bluetooth or wifi hotspot work on this rom?
[HTC Inspire 4G] steevod79:
it says in the op that bluetooth and wifi are known issues
[HTC Inspire 4G] REDFOCZ:
Just to clarify though, is it the wifi hotspot that isn't work or wifi? I know on rcmix version of the rom wifi worked but not the hot spot
[HTC Inspire 4G] badhand386:
My data doesn't work at all on this ROM while running the newest ota radio/ril combo. Also Bluetooth sharing Fc popped up multiple times when I wasn't even using Bluetooth. Other than those issues, the ROM is off to a nice start. Sense 3.5 is a whole different experience. An experience I could definitely get into. I look forward to the upcoming releases.
[HTC Inspire 4G] badhand386:
WiFi doesn't work at all, no option to configure it during setup and in settings it just says "error". The ROM is not ready for daily use just yet, but I am sure the developer is already working on these known issues.
[HTC Inspire 4G] zFr3eak:
wifi is normaly working how it seems i broke something on the update. will be fixt on next update...
[HTC Inspire 4G] badhand386:
Sh** happens, either way you have a good foundation. I'm anxiously awaiting your upcoming releases.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Brau0303:
a question

will the wifi fix be released as a patch or as part of a full updated rom? (Wow, i really like this rom and Sense 3.5 is awesome)

cheers

BR
[HTC Inspire 4G] zFr3eak:
Version 1.3 is online. it is only a small update with wifi fix for inspire 4G and Desire HD. Desire S and Desire Z will follow tomorrow i think. :D

-Cheers
[HTC Inspire 4G] Zen-Dragon:
Im testing 1.3 out.

So far so good.

Every once and a while I get a network error, but so far so good.

Sense 3.5 is nice.
[HTC Inspire 4G] zFr3eak:
wifi is working ? :P
[HTC Inspire 4G] Zen-Dragon:
Mine is.

Have not had the error for a while now.

no bluetooth though
[HTC Inspire 4G] zFr3eak:
nice, bluetooth is next thing....
[HTC Inspire 4G] Brau0303:
Updated to 1.3 and my wif seems to be working so far. Thanks for the update.

Cheers

BR
[HTC Inspire 4G] zFr3eak:
sure thing :P
[HTC Inspire 4G] Zen-Dragon:
Played around a little longer.

FM radio kicks back to app screen once it hits 75% on booting up.

Wifi was working fine until I tried to mess with Hotspot. That wacked it all out. Had to reboot to get wifi back.

Also issues with the SD. First couple boots it found my music, now it couldn't find anything. Same with my images in the gallery. Reboots have not helped.

restored back to LeeDroid and everything is there...
[HTC Inspire 4G] cookw24:
Tested this last night (I think I actually downloaded it pretty close to immediately after posting). Glad to see that wifi is up. Definitely the most beautiful ROM I've tried (amongst CM7, Unity, MIUI, AOSP). Sense 3.5 is unbelievable, I love the quick launch widget. Once bluetooth starts working (a must for a commuter going through Chicago), this will more than likely be my daily driver. Admittedly, the boot animation is kind of annoying. I really like the stock HTC one compared to any custom ones I've seen

Otherwise, kudos!
[HTC Inspire 4G] badhand386:
So far so good. I'm going to give 1.3 a shot as my daily driver, I'll let you all know what I find. So far it's been good to me. Keep up the good work!

I do think it needs an audio fix though, I am noticing poor audio quality. Maybe next version will have that cooked in, last night wifi didn't work and a day later we have wifi again. High hopes.

Edit: do NOT use turbonium audio fix, it will disable audio altogether. Wait for Devs to cook a fix in at this point.
[HTC Inspire 4G] partsdudes:
Fix is pretty easy, just boot into recovery and mount your SD card. Sometimes (i dunnno why) it will unmount. Just mount reboot and your videos and pics will be there.

Version 1.4 is out. please this is the smallest update i ever gave out lol. only a wifi fix for desire z. so now all devices has a working wifi conneciton ;)
[HTC Inspire 4G] Brau0303:
So Nothing new in 1.4 for Inspire then. correct.

hey before i use this i have a question is there htc facebook integration? like in the accounts is there facebook for htc sense because ive tried 2 roms with 3.5 and there is only normal fb thanks in advance
[HTC Inspire 4G] badhand386:
There is Facebook for htc sense included, as well as what appears to be a new Facebook chat client through sense as well.
[HTC Inspire 4G] goldslugger:
thanks alot! defiantly flashing asap!
[HTC Inspire 4G] goldslugger:
i just flashed and the only facebook account is android...=(
[HTC Inspire 4G] bootsie99:
I am digging this big time, little laggybut all and all solid. No issues or fcs at all so far
[HTC Inspire 4G] badhand386:
It looks like the Android client but it's actually sense. Even when I post with it it says htc on my facebook page
[HTC Inspire 4G] badhand386:
I'm loving this rom, but it desperately needs an audio fix. Also, I'm getting relatively weak radio performance.

I'm loving how light on my resources this rom is.
