[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blessedswine:
i dont believe so, i run mine that way now, mostly a tablet but every once in a while ill disconnect it and run the batteries to 0 just to get a recharge.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yuhenyo:
Thanks! I was afraid 'cause I've heard rumors that if you leave phones charging overnight or if you always have laptops plugged in, the battery life would lessen eventually.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blessedswine:
with all battery powered electronics i allow them to discharge fully once a month.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skeeterpro:
There have been reports of some docks with horrible battery drain. Test yours with these instructions I got in a PM a few months ago from someone representing themselves as from Asus (many other XDA members got the same PM). I RMA'ed my dock after testing and it's been great since.

The following is a step-by-step guide on how to verify if your unit can support the new optional battery saving mode:

(1) Make sure your software is updated to 8.2.3.13 or later; and your mobile dock is updated to 0209. ([Setting]>[About Tablet]>[Build Number] & [Mobile Dock version])

(2) Dock the Pad into the keyboard dock.

(3) Go to [Settings] > [Screen] and select [MobileDock Battery saving mode]

(4) Press power button on the Transformer Pad to make the unit go to sleep.

(5) With the option checked, if your unit does NOT wake up with the tap of a keyboard, the new battery saving mode is enabled and working.

(6) With [MobileDock Battery saving mode] checked,iIf your unit still wakes up by a key press, you have the earlier design.

(7) If #6 is true and you also require the new feature, then please contact your local ASUS service center “
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spidey01:
I've not really experienced this, so much as in my personal opinion: my phones battery life has lessened considerably since I spent a few weeks of running it down to the at or near the single digits between charges. Can't say for sure though, since what also changed since then, I use it a hell of a lot more too. Now're days I will usually leave it charging if it will be sitting around a while.

My TF, the dock is often depleted or laid low without any real problems; can't say I've done the same to the tablets battery though.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yuhenyo:
owww.. another question is that would the dock ever lose power while connected to the table?t? ' cause mine still has 3% and it stopped charging the tablet.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] al2x:
In the case of Lithium Ion batteries (which most smart phones and tablets have nowadays, including both TF and dock), it is detrimental to let them discharge to 0% and then fully recharge. It is always best to charge whenever possible, and even leaving your TF plugged in overnight is not bad at all for the life of your battery.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yuhenyo:
wow! great! now all my worries are gone. I guess I'll charge away then. :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spidey01:
When I first got my TF, I was curious as to whether or not the dock would stop working once it had ran out of battery; testing it, I found the sae result. Dock sticks about 3% and the tablet continues to discharge. I assume the docking connector works both ways and allows powering the dock off the tablet.

I prefer to charge before then though, usually at like 35~19 %. When I undock, I usually leave the dock plugged in to top off, even if it was like 80%.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gmatharu12:
In all the 2.3.5 ROMs I have tried, the built in WiFi tethering fails to save any settings. If you change the SSID from AndroidAP to anything else, once you come back to the settings page it will revert back to AndroidAP always. Does anyone else have this issue with their latest ROM?

Cheers.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droidphile:
If your phone is rooted, you can use apps like Barnacle Wifi Tether.

Works perfect for me. It remembers all settings. App also displays downloaded/uploaded data volume real time.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gmatharu12:
Thank you for your response! I gave it a try but unfortunately it just doesn't want to share correctly. I tried a few WiFi tethering apps but they all seem to fail and it's not because I don't have root access, I think it is because they are not 2.3.5 compatible yet. By the way, do any of them support WPA as opposed to WEP?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droidphile:
afaik, barnacle supports only WEP encryption....

Don't know about other similar apps (like android wifi tether, easy tether, pdanet, etc)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] howipig:
gmatharu12,

It seems the bug is rather a Google one than Samsung. Many Nexus users have experienced the same when getting the 2.3.6 update. Then Google pushed out another update to fix it along with a bunch of others.

Back to our cases with 2.3.5, I also notice the DUN APN type once was shown up in 2.3.4 has gone. Not sure if it has a corelation or not.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Boo_Wii:
Yeah i have the same problem...be good when some one finds a fix...wish i could but i am no way near the level of the devs here :) (respect)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Azurstorm:
I confirm that the problem exists on 2.3.4 and 2.3.5, KI4 / KJ1 (stock and custom roms)...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Azurstorm:
And KJ2 has still this bug...

Does someone know where the config is stored? Perhaps I could try to manually change settings...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] howipig:
Folks,

This is strange because some reports in the Google support forum, it has been fixed OTA for the vanilla build for Nexus S.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Azurstorm:
I forgot perhaps to say that it is a Samsung Galaxy S2 :D
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] howipig:
Azurstorm,

Of course, we are posting here for our Samsung GALAXY S II GT-I9100. But my point is that Nexus S is a "close relative", and many things should be similar.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dikai_yang:
The issue is already resolved. Right after you flash a ROM, change the wifi tethering setting first BEFORE you enable wifi. If you enable WIFI first, then yes, the tethering setting cannot be saved. I've tried this several times and it certainly solved my problem.

If you change the wifi tethering setting first, THEN you enable wifi. After that the settings can be saved.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Azurstorm:
Thanks for your advice, I found only one combination possible:

1) Deactivate all wifi function.

2) Reboot

3) Change tethering settings

4) Activate wifi or tethering

But it's a little excessive to change one setting :o
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] howipig:
dikai_yang / Azurstorm,

*Update: Thank you! It seems the key to success is disable WiFi fisrt and reboot. It is kind of hassle but consider once it is set, most of us would not change it too often.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mavogler:
same problem here :s
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Actually, the sure fire way to fix this issue, is to correct the permissions on the /data/misc/wifi folder. (you must have root)

In a shell window or terminal emulator, type:

chmod 770 /data/misc/wifi

This should fix you right up. No reboot necessary.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LiFE1688:
Samsung screwed up with the Kernel in 2.3.5 firmware, you just need to use another Kernel, something like Speedmod or Siyah fixes it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Right, but if for some reason you don't want to flash a different kernel, you can just adjust the permissions of the /data/misc/wifi folder, provided you have root.

ctomgee / LiFE1688,

Thank you.
[Captivate Android Development] lidroid:
I rebuild status bar power button in samsung rom in my national day holiday, now it has twelve buttons now, include all samsung buttons, wifi, data connection, gps, flashlight, sound, auto rotation, bluetooth, auto brightness, sync, reboot and power down. Actually early time I coded some of those function in LidroidToolbox, but not included them in status bar. I actually rebuilt it with java, not just mod of samli. You can download the Java source code here, improve it and add more buttons. Latter if I have enough time I will provide an apk which can change order and visiblity of those buttons.

This code can adapt to samsung i9000/i9100/i897/t959/m110s etc. I will port this in my new rom. The flashflight will display a white and brightest activity when the camera without flashlight, for example i9000/i897/t959/m110s etc.

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cdzo72:
if you don't wanna root so you can troubleshoot it little by little, then you don't have much choice but to do a factory reset
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SHildebrandt:
Hey Kiki...... I had the same problem awhile back. I finally figured out it was caused by the Accuweather program trying to sync itself when I didn't have a network connection (wifi or cellular..... sometimes I would go out of cellular range). I decreased the sync frequency

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andypotts:
I am running an early 3.2 tiamat rom and i'm wanting to completely wipe all my things like music etc.

When I do a system reset there is no option to get rid of the data.

I have tried doing a wipe via CWM but this doesnt clear this data either.

Any ideas?
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okantomi:
Are the files you want to clear in your internal storage ("sdcard") or on your external micro sdcard? I think solarnz' version R4c CWM recovery was configured to avoid wiping data, and I know a wipe data/factory reset in CWM rcovery menu never touches the external sdcard.

You may be best off just manually deleteing your unwanted files, through a file manager app or via pc connection.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] digitalnerd:
Sorry to revive an old thread but are you sure that is the only way?

I have done experimentation with files and (not knowing what I was doing really) and now I have various/random files scattered throughout my Xoom.

I would rather start over with a fresh clean slate but every time I do I factory reset (from xoom settings, not clockwork) the files are still there. :confused:

Any suggestions??

Thanks,

Digital

BONUS QUESTION: Which version of Clockwork should I be running now? I'm currently on 3.1x something I think. 3.2.0.0 ?

EDIT: Well never mind, I guess I got it to work. Not sure what the exact process/steps are supposed to be but I did a factory reset within Xoom and clockwork (plus extras) without a SD card then I did it the same process again with SD card and then I finally did a reboot into recovery after factory reset in clockwork (i think that may have been the key?)
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okantomi:
Great! There is also a way to wipe from fastboot, but you would have to look up the exact commands. But it looks like you got your clean start.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zbee:
easiest way i found is bassicaly flash through fastboot stock kernel rom and recovery etc...then you can start allover again with a nice "virgin xoom thats needs a good root"
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] digitalnerd:
I guess I jumped the gun, still finding scraps of old files left behind. :(

It looks like I'll be trying the fastboot method. I had put the Xoom in a bad state a while back and had to learn some of those commands to revive it. I'll look into it, thanks for the tip!!

Would you mind writing up some quick steps and links to do that?

Once I get the correct ROM, it looks like I'll need to run the following commands.

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot flash userdata userdata.img

fastboot erase cache

I don't think I need to do a: fastboot oem lock

after all that since I plan on rooting again right away.

I'm really enjoying the custom rom over here and would like to apply that again: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1400958

Basically, I just want to have a Xoom the cleanest it can be from time to time with the least amount of hassle. I rarely backup/restore data so that is not an issue for me right now.

This time around I would like to do it the right way and not just be in the dark. I'm starting to see that XDA is awesome community. Never thought my problem would actually get some input. :cool:

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] llama-power:
before going through all that, just try an fastboot erase userdata, that should clear all your data in /data (and that includes /sdcard). If it doesn't, you could try fastboot oem unlock, that should most definately clear everything, no need to flash the stock rom or lock the device again.

Only if all that fails (with all that I'm talking about these two commands;)) I'd try to go with the steps you mentioned, they look quite okay to me.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] digitalnerd:
Thanks, llama-power. Works great! I also added the "fastboot erase cache" as well, not sure if it helps or hurts but just trying to ensure a clean wipe.

Here are my steps which might help somebody else out down the road:

How do you like it? Anything you miss about CM that sense 3.0 does not offer?

[EVO 4G General] mike.r.olson:
YMMV, I mean.
[EVO 4G General] alaman68:
yeah, any AOSP blows the battery life of any sense 2.0 and higher away. I played around with newtoroot's 3.5 version yesterday and liked it. The widgets are cool and I found it entertaining. Switched back to AOSP for battery though. I don't use widgets, my phone is pure utility only, nothing fancy no no widgets.
[EVO 4G General] boomerb5:
First Sense ROM I actually like

Have been on Team Blaze's Sense 3.5 based FEARMEde (the Hybrid version) on my EVO 4G for almost a week. It runs quickly and smoothly and has had most of the HTC crap stripped out of it. Technically it is in Beta, but I've had no troubles with it so far. And the battery has been pretty good using stock kernel...similar to what I was getting on AOSP ROMs using Savaged Zen kernels. I'm about to flash ChopSuey kernel to see if it improves battery life.

[EVO 4G General] xredgambit:
I did CM for a couple of days. I ws too used to sense. I like the sense time app, the clock widget, the calender. I used beautiful widgets when I switched to LP on my stock phone. Once I rooted and did sense 3.0 after cm, I stayed.
[EVO 4G General] lagvoid:
I made the opposite move. I was using Synergy for awhile and tried a few different sense 3.0 roms. So far, CM7 has far superior speed mostly from not being ram starved like the sense roms were.

go launcher + beautiful widgets is pretty close to what sense offered and is much more customizible as well.

I miss 2 things:

sense camera (miui closest thing to it)

4 application lock screen (haven't been able to add more than 1 app to lockscreen)

If you miss the camera, you can change the settings to 6mp wide and it is very similar
[Nook Color General] linyongzheng:
I searched the Nook Color forums and didn't find any posts about this.

I recently installed the nightly 209 and 210. In both cases I've been trying out the new ring-style lock screen that has been merged into the nightlies. I've found that when the nook color starts to boot up (from a completely off state), the OS is extremely unstable and will usually reboot itself. Has anyone else seen this issue?

FYI, I wiped my data, cache, etc and saw no improvement. When I switched back to the rotational lock the boot up issues seem to disappear.

[Droid Incredible General] RMarkwald:
I've always wondered this myself. Cool to see that you took the time to understand it, and post it, no matter how "small" or "pointless". Sometimes it's nice to know why something like this does what it does, and how to fix it.
[Droid Incredible General] NilsP:
I enjoyed your writeup. It put things in perspective for me. I had come to the conclusion that the % could not add up to more than 100%. However, if you put a 0,0 statement in front of each new show_progress for example

show_progress(0,0)

show_progress(10, 1)

would show as approximately 10%

Now is you want to show you are now at 50% you could use the following

show_progress(0,0)

show_progress(50, 1)

This would first reset the counter to 0 then jump to approximately 50%

However, after reading your writeup I came to another conclusion. Since the progress never depends on how much time actually elapsed and is based on a guess I calculated how long it actually takes to flash my ROM which turned out to be approximately 175 seconds.

So, I put one statement in the front of the script

show_progress(1.34,175)

and removed all others.

Now it shows the bar gradually grow to 100% as the install progresses and hits 100% pretty close to real time end. Actuality need to set the 175 to 2 or 3 seconds longer than your average install time.
[Droid Incredible General] byrong:
Thanks for the additional info, NilsP: that is very interesting about resetting the progress bar at each step (and therefore being able to have more granular control)

You read my mind re: putting one show_progress at the beginning of the script that is timed based on avg installation duration. After figuring this stuff out, I put that on my "to do" list: figure out how long my personal scripts take and try to time the progress bar accordingly.

The advantage of the one-line route is not only simplicity, but a smoother progress bar. The disadvantage is if someone is running a phone that (for whatever reason) has a far-from-average install time.

For those who decide to have lots of individual progress markers through their script, at least if the timing is off, the next progress command will bump the bar to the right place. Of course, the disadvantage here is that the progress bar will fill up at an uneven pace.

Since it's based on pre-defined time, It's not that great of a function, no matter how you slice it :(

I agree that adding a few seconds to the average install time is probably the best route. This way, users who have a slow phone still have "padding" built in at the end (they won't think their phone has frozen). Users who have fast phones will just see the progress bar steadily fill to a partial state, then all of a sudden get a message that the script is done.
