Eaglesblood 2.3.5 with faux 42 oc/uv best combo ever everything works
[T-Mobile LG G2x] wgrant:
How heavy is your usage and how long does the battery last?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] wgrant:
I'm going to give EB 2.2 a try seeing as it's new with faux's kernel and hopefully have a better time with it then last time.

Hope to post back with good results battery-wise.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Scoobyracing03:
I get about 12 hours with Eagleblood and the kernal it comes with. I use setCPU to lower the clock speed when the screen is off. I can use the phone at work for most of my 10 hour shift listening to music and browsing facebook or other apps that use data on my lunch and breaks along with texting a lot throughout my shift.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kharnage:
What's your setcpu settings with the oc/uv kernel?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tdizzle404:
which eb version and is it 2.3.3 or 2.3.5?

Thanks in Advance

I know this thread is about batt life, but what about games are there any rom / kernel combos that make games look and run better?

I'm using xboarders stock debloated and tweaked rom with stck kernel and I also get about 12 hours of light to moderate use in a day.

fauxs kernel causes my phone to black screen and shut off some times.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] x0xhellx0x:
im using EB 2.2 Faux 4.2 the one that dose no OC or UV and it took me 8 hours of super heavy usage trying to waist my battery for me to drain it hope this helps
[T-Mobile LG G2x] will748:
My solution is My custom overlay on cm7 nightly 158 with faux123's cm7 kernel STANDARD VOLTAGE with setcpu tuning it down to the second to lowest voltage when the screen goes off. My battery lasts about 35 hours!!!! I know this because I took an overnight trip.
[TouchPad General] UnderZone7:
I just reset my touchpad. (doctor + on device data wipe). My touchpad used to 14 gb before this now it shows 12gb. Any suggestions?
[TouchPad General] Solidus_n313:
did you install touchdroid android, or modify the partitions in any way?

also, check your installed apps/preware veifry app space usage
[TouchPad General] UnderZone7:
I tried that chroid ipk and thats it thats why I doctered my device because I wouldent let me use uberkernel anymore.
[TouchPad General] Solidus_n313:
curious...do you know how to use novaterm?
[TouchPad General] UnderZone7:
No idea man...
[TouchPad General] Solidus_n313:
blerg...the big problem i have with webOS doctor is that it doesnt restore the partition table...it doesnt even touch it...so im thinking that either something modified your partition, or you can try to reinstall 3.0.2 again...

if you knew how to use novaterm, we could check the partition tables to see if theyre valid, but if you dont have the sdk/pdk set up, its not worth it to do it if you dont know how to use it
[TouchPad General] UnderZone7:
Is there a toutorial I can follow that can help redo my partitons?
[TouchPad General] Solidus_n313:
i TOTALLY do not recommended doing that! As far as I know, that is the only surefire method to bricking your touchpad if you miss a single character on the command line.

Id say google it, but you might be better off taking the 2gb hit and wait for some partition guides to come available. Most of the advanced nova stuff is on webosinternals.com and the palm SDK site, so you cam start your research there.

Also ask some other 16gb users who can use nova to post the size/locations of their partitions, that way you have a reference point
[TouchPad General] UnderZone7:
Thanks man... ill try that do you think CM7 will rest the partitions.
[TouchPad General] Solidus_n313:
highly, unlikely, if anything you will end up with LESS spaace on your webOS partition because CM will need to reallocate partition space for its own use
[TouchPad General] Unrealwolf:
My Touchpad shows only 12,6 gb too, but it've been that way all along. Other strange thing was that i wasn't able to update from 3.0 to 3.0.2 by OTA, it just showed me "your device is up to date", had to use Doctor. Hope that all those things are just a software hickup, not a damn hardware malfunction.
[TouchPad General] Solidus_n313:
wow, that is strange... i hope it isnt a hardware defect either...unless webOS 3.x.x takes up 2gb o.O

heres how you can check (make sure you have palm SDK, novaterm and a calculator handy :P)

-connect TP via usb straight to your pc (no usb hubs!)

-on the TP, either hit cancel or do nothing, do not enter usb mode! you dont need dev mode either.

-load up novaterm

-hit connect

-type "df -h" (without the quotes)

-add up the size totals, and see whatcha got!

if possible, please post results, im curious to see if its hardware or software
[TouchPad General] miles16:
I have the same issue.. I will try it out once I get home later today
[TouchPad General] Unrealwolf:
I've got some problems with novaterm - it shows an error (which could be ignored) after every keypress, it doesn't scroll proper, ant it doesn't allow me to copy/paste. I've made a screensot of the beginning of that long output thing, here

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21304732/unt.png

BTW. i've found that it's quite common: here is the thread of a guy who has 12.6 gigs too http://forums.precentral.net/hp-touchpad/298469-where-my-16gb.html
[TouchPad General] lovleshgarg:
I also had 12.6 GB free space when I received my TP. But I was able to update it to 3.0.2 via OTA without any problems. Though, the free space was still 12.6 GB after the update.
[TouchPad General] theniel:
I have a 32gb only showing 23.5 gb available. It seems to lose 2gb each time I do webos doctor. Hopefully there's someway to reset its partitioning.
[TouchPad General] Kienz:
I'm only showing 12 Gb as well.

Here's what I show in Novaterm:
[TouchPad General] Trickman2:
I would hope that is not the case....can anyone verify this? Would make WebOS doctor a pretty crappy restore tool.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dumraden:
Hello, I have just preordered my Xperia active from a local salesperson, but from what i see in the development threads, its nothing like HTC phones when it comes to rooting.

In HTC phones all you had to do is, unlock the bootloader with an update.zip file, root it, and then you're free to do whatever you wanna do from CWM.

I really havent understood how the procedure goes in Xperia phones, nor is there a comprehensive guide towards rooting the phone.

So could someone explain in simple steps what i need to do to root the phone? Or even is it worth rooting it since its so new and the development is more or less... inexistant? The only real custom rom I see so far for the mini mini pro and active is the FXP one which is in beta stages AFAIK.

Also about unlocking the bootloader. Losing DRM and TrackID is what makes them know that you have unlocked it therefore you lose your warranty?

Please enlighten me :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] wwwong:
Comprehensive Xperia Rooting Guide:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1034087

For the active... there doesn't appear to be much, but if you have 'OCD' like me and like the absolute control... it's worth it. But to each his/her own preferences :)

Once you unlock, DRM is permanently gone, no more TrackID.

I'm not sure about warranty regulations but there is a way to re-lock the boot loader:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1134335

Hope this helps.

EDIT There's also a way to unlock the bootloader and not lose DRM

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1285285

But there's no current way to relock it if you use that route.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dumraden:
Thanks a lot for your detailed reply.

Although i still got questions regarding custom ROM's. I saw someone mentioning a insecure kernel, and using it before flashing a new ROM. Kernels in HTC devices are simply there for you to find out which one is best for your country and ROM. Is it the other way around here?

Yes i do want the best out of my device, but voiding warranty for something that isnt yet "ready".... It kinda puts me off.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] PoedelPCS:
hi dumraden,

The days with simply zip unlocking are gone either on HTC. The HTC Desire S of a friend of mine was locked. They call it S: on ..unlocked was S: off

I could not keep joking about who was so silly to convert his Desire S back to a Desire.. sorry for that :D

The step with the insecure kernel is to flash a stock rom where we know a method to use an exploit on it. Sony prevents unsigned firmware from beeing flashed to their devices (compare ps3 or PSP). Thus we need to make use of an exploit to get access to the device to make rooting possible. As root we are the master of desaster and can do what ever we want.

Warranty? Okay, there is a possibility to relock the bootloader in case you'll run in the case of needing warranty. Otherwise there are ways to make it that unsuable that even the support cannot wake it up thus find no real reason for the error.

This is not an FXP ROM, it is cyanogenmod ported by Team freeXperia and mainly released by FXP. It is almost ready. The smartkeyboard and camera did not work on my selfcompiled one on friday. FXP claimed camera would work. Could be my fault.. who cares. They'll get it fixed.. I think soon.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dumraden:
Yea i am a prior HTC user, have my Desire Z getting fixed as we talk ( i hope so at least :P ).

So basically the insecure kernel works as an exploit for us to install custom roms on the phones. Cool thanks for the heads up.

Wasnt FXP working with cyanogen to build a kernel from scratch in order for us not to have to go through the hassle of using a modded stock kernel for the Custom ROM's? As far as i can tell this is a breakthrough for Xperia phones since we will be able to have an AOSP base in order to build from there up. Right?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] nimbold:
I have the same rooting problem. I use superOnClick and gingerbreak but didn't work.

I'm new to android so that keep searching and reading xda..

Then I start using android sdk & fastboot and adb mode said in one of the topics, but fastboot didn't work even though bootloader is unlocked.

I'm confused, waiting for help :D

Flashed this ROM:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FidoCappy:
Hi All,

I've been searching threads but haven't found anything much on this. I have recently upgraded my captivate to the stock Rogers 2.3.3 firmware. I've been on it for two days and so far once each day I try to wake my phone up from sleep with the power button and nothing happens. Only way to wake is to pull battery and put back. Second time it happened I called my phone and it rang but screen was just black.

Has anyone come across this? Is it this stock rom or hardware issue? It's only happened since upgrading to 2.3.3. I was on stock 2.1, 2.2 and Serendipity 7 and never had this happen before.

Any help or feedback is appreciated.

Also, I re-flashed stock 2.3.3 again this morning and it happened again.

Did you try a Wipe Data/Factory Reset ??
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FidoCappy:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4-2ndtwin:

As a community, is there anything we can do to get HTC to expedite source release?

I went to the Android BBQ last week, waited in a 20min line, to ask their "dev" representatives about this. They literally told me no one can answer that question, when I asked who can answer me. Really, really sad.

I have been told Twitter is one way of getting their attention, but that seems like an exercise in futility.

Does anyone know how to properly harass them? Has anyone received any feedback form them of late?

I wish we could find the way to apply the right pressure to make this happen!

If you're willing to pony up $50 I'll draft up a letter in Word and send it to you. You can have your lawyer (hence the $50) print it out on his letterhead and mail it to them. If they decline you sue for your $50 and start a class action.

But the gist is that Android is released under the GPL, which states that the source code MUST be released no later than the binary. I'll look up chapter and verse, try to draft up something semi professional looking, and PM it to you.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Col.Kernel:
Sorry for the delay, I've been sick as a dog. Here is the relevant portion of the GPL;

My letter would probably read something like

Dear HTC <insert name of correct person>,

While other parts of the Android operating system are released under the Apache license the Android kernel, being Linux, is released under the Gnu General Public License version 2.

Your failure to release the source code with the binary puts you in violation of Section 3 which states;

3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:

a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,

b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange

You have done none of the above.

You have 14 days from the receipt of this letter to comply or <insert appropriate leagalese for "explain to a judge WTH you are taking up time in his courtroom" here>.

Respectfully,

<your name>

And all the associated formatting, etc, that goes into a formal legal letter.

Obviously this should be sent Certified Mail, return receipt requested.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Col.Kernel:
Good idea. However, since HTC doesn't deal with their customers directly (but rather through the carriers as a proxy), it might be better to apply pressure to T-Mobile through both the BBB and Visa/MC.

Of course the downside to that is that TMo has plausible deniability. I dunno, does HTC take Visa/MC? Might still work to go that route on them if they do.
