[HTC EVO 3D] playya:
I am no expert on Evo3D and actually I just came across one to play around but I rooted it as the instructions say and then used this method here to flash roms. I have had no issues at all as I have flashed the ICS, MIUI and 2 sense roms. You have to make sure the zip file has a boot.img in it and then follow directions. I am not going to say you guys don't know what you are doing but make sure you do exactly as the OP in the threads say to do. I have done this and I must say without #fail.

So just check the zip file make sure there is a boot.img in it and place it on the root of your sd card. Then use the app to flash the necessary files to your partition that will allow it to boot up. After that you go into recovery and flash your rom. I do not think you will have an issue after that.

If you do not do this first and you are on 1.50 it will hang at the boot screen

[HTC EVO 3D] xDragod:
This damn Hboot 1.50 is keeping me from rooting. I tried HTCdev and it wouldn't work, so I tried RUU and junk and was getting USB errors. Now I'm looking at the ROMs I'd like to try, and none have a separate kernel attached. I really don't want to deal with this crap.

I really hope an exploit comes along...
[HTC EVO 3D] nolimit78:
This whole process has been tested and proved to work. What problems are you having?
[HTC EVO 3D] xDragod:
I would run fastboot oem get_identifier_token and it would just say "waiting for device" and never get past that. I'm also just annoyed that I'd have to flash kernels separately.
[HTC EVO 3D] greeg32:
You don't have to if you flash ROMs through fastboot. I've been on 1.5 since August. Its not so bad and I've learned a lot about ADB.
[HTC EVO 3D] nolimit78:
See, now that's a good android XDA user. Using ADB isn't that scary and I usually prefer flashing while by a computer anyway. The "just in case" in me.
[HTC EVO 3D] megabiteg:
Are you using a VM to do the process?

If not do the following:

Once the phone reboots to fastboot recovery, on your computer check under the device manager if the driver for the phone doesn't have a exclamation mark. If it does, you just have to right click and select uninstall and after its done, just click the refresh button so the driver could be installed again, then you should see it work right away.

This happened to me while performing the operation under Window$ 7.
[HTC EVO 3D] xDragod:
No, not running a VM. I'll try that sometime, but I think I'm just going to stick with Stock for now. Fixed a lot of the stuff that was bothering me in the last few days, so I think I'll stick with stock until a stable ICS/CM9 build comes out with everything working. Sense on ICS looks pretty ugly compared to stock ICS to me, so I think that'll be enough for me to switch.
[HTC EVO 3D] slosvt:
Can you use terminal emulater and root explorer to write the boot.img file or do you have to use a PC?
[HTC EVO 3D] sandiegopaneraiguy:
Hello and thank you for the well written guide, and a big thanks to the developer!

I have successfully installed the program, flashed the kernel TWRP 2 recovery. When I attempt to flash the ROM it hangs at writing boot image. The process bar continues to wind, but there is not progress shown and I have let it sit for as much as 20 minutes before doing a battery pull.

Am I correct in thinking that it SHOULD flash the ROM as simply as the kernel and recovery image?

Thanks in advance!
[HTC EVO 3D] greeg32:
Yes, you are correct. It takes a little longer than other files; but it shouldn't take as long as it is for you. First guess is bad download. Try downloading the file again.
[HTC EVO 3D] sandiegopaneraiguy:
Thank you, DL'd the file again and it flashed pretty quickly!
[HTC EVO 3D] lonewolf5557:
ok...so I have 2 options after flashing kernal. Standard boot / Boot into recovery. I hit standard because I am supposed to load into fastboot not the TeamWin Recovery, correct? It did not boot into fastboot while holding vol. Down. I came back to full boot. Also I am flashing the Anthrax_ICS kernal..is that correct? Can you give me a little more detail after the flashing of the kernal please. Thank you.
[HTC EVO 3D] doeboy711:
Well can I use this to boot into recovery if I want to flash anything I want on the go? I want to flash a tweak, not a kernel or rom. Or should I reflash the kernel, then apply my tweaks? I am not sure how this app works.
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
There are a bunch of applications available which allow the user to reboot into recovery mode. You can also power down the device, holding vol down + pwr turn on and select recovery mode.

With Flash Image GUI, I wasn't seeking to duplicate any functionality currently available but to provide functionality nobody else had in an application. FIG works for flashing kernels and recovery images on the EVO 3D. Due to the HTC unlock write protection on flashing kernels from recovery mode, FIG will flash the kernel portion of the ROM from android mode, reboot to recovery and allow the user to flash the other half of the ROM from the custom recovery.

If you're installing custom mods/tweaks, it really depends on the type of mod/tweak. If it changes the kernel, should be able to use FIG. If it doesn't touch the kernel/kernel modules, should be able to apply from the custom recovery w/o any issues.

Hope that helps!
[HTC EVO 3D] doeboy711:
Ok, so I should be able to use the reboot into recovery option when I power off instead of connecting it to a pc and using the fastboot command? I have been using the fastboot commands for a while now when flashing stuff, but I am wanting to be able to flash stuff on the go. So I am trying to see what I can do.
[HTC EVO 3D] TrofeoSC:
So, can I flash a complete ROM like this one Mean ROM .9 under the portion for flashing roms? It is my understanding that this ROM uses the newest stock kernel.

If the ROM has a special kernel associated with it then I must use both options to flash the kernel first and the ROM second?

If I am going to install a theme, can I just boot to recovery and flash?

Can I use TWRP 2.0 for recovery?

Thank you very much
[HTC EVO 3D] loonatik78:
S-On has NOTHING to do with root at all. So yeah, if he's running Android as SU, he's as rooted as ya get. Which is how the app this thread supports does what it does. Cracking bootloader security is a VERY different issue. The reason it must be cracked in some form first is because if it's not, it will detect a modified kernel and you NEED a modified kernel to have anything more than per-session root access.

Please... PLEASE school yourself before schooling others. Mis-information and confusion doesn't help anyone.
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
Yes, you can use the reboot to recovery option in Flash Image GUI instead of having to use fastboot commands. Hope that helps make everything a little bit simpler!

A ROM can consist of two pieces:

1) system portion

2) kernel portion

Some ROMs contain both, some only contain the system portion. Flash Image GUI will flash the kernel portion of the ROM .zip and then prompt you to reboot into recovery mode where you can flash the same ROM .zip and load the system portion.

Due to HTC's official unlock method not unlocking write access to the kernel portion while in standard recovery mode, the above method can be done while "on the go" i.e. away from the computer.

Otherwise, the method from a computer to properly flash both portions of a ROM .zip file from the custom recovery is to fastboot the custom recovery, such as TWRP 2.0: fastboot boot c:\downloads\twrp-recovery-2.0.img.

Appreciate the support and best of luck!
[HTC EVO 3D] sailio:
I'm assuming this will work on firmware 2.17?
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
Yes. Hboot/bootloader hasn't changed from using the official HTC unlock method in firmware 2.17.

Most everything in firmware 2.17 is essentially the same as 2.08 in regards to unlocking/customizing the device.
[HTC EVO 3D] Nsandhu23:
So for CM9 by JoelZ, can I flash from recovery like normal? Or do I need to use my computer to fastboot?
[Wildfire General] Nhs666:
Hello together

Ive installed nightly 223 after one week of using jokerdroid, everything fine so far.

But when i using navigon, some of the instructions the arrows and other things, are now not displayed properly (the edges are not visible...displaysize seems to small). In the past after i installed a LDPI-Theme this error disappered, but with the latest nightly i seems that there is no change at all after installing a LDPI-Theme.

Has something changed with the lcd-density settings or the theme engine ?? Has anyone a idea?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] nd4spdbh:
I have see a couple of people talk about their screen off / on call script, wherin clocks are limited to a different (lower) max freq when in a screen off / voice call state.

I did some searching and really couldnt come up with anything, if anyone can point me in the right direction that would be awesome.

Thanks!

no one :(?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] toxicro:
Use System Tuner from market
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Ianis G. Vasilev:
SetCPU is an application that uses "Profiles" (Not the CM ones) so that each profile can be set to a different CPU governor and frequency. This way you can set a screen off or a high temperature profile to use a lower frequency. Fortunately, SmartassV2 has a very good frequency management so you really don't need SetCPU if you are using it.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] nd4spdbh:
i swear i have seen something like an init.d script that does what im asking... id much rather not have another app running in the background.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Ianis G. Vasilev:
1% battery drain in 4 hours... minimal screen off frequency... higher frequency only if requested by kernel. I bet your script does only the minimal screen off frequency.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] 4silvertooth:
You can do that in tasker app. Its paid app but you can grab a beta trial from their site.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] nd4spdbh:
ok... lets try and rephrase this question.

i DO NOT WANT AN APP THAT HAS TO ALWAYS RUN.

i want a scrip that will detect when the phone is in voice call state and limit the phone to a frequency of my choice.

why is it that miui has best battery with same kernels as other roms can this method of code implication be looked at i am not a devloper in any senze just curious
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] satishynd:
hello,

i have I5801 galaxy 3..

currently on kies Froyo firmware..

from since flashing to froyo ..

1) whenever i talk on phone (ie do voice call) battery drains out in even less then a hour when fully charged..

2) when kept for charging.. even if battery shows like 10% remaining .. within like a min or two.. battery indicator shows an 100% charged status.

and it drains out in like 10 mins if removed from charging

what i think is somehow froyo is assuming it's charged and is stopping the charging process.

i've rooted it, and tried calibration.. still no luck.. I've deleted batterystats.bin regularly, still a new file is created and no change in battery condition is seen

plz help.. too much frustrated

PS: i am not a pro.. so help plz
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mohanshbhr:
don't delete batterystats.bin do some full charge discharge then report.
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] satishynd:
tried that.. still no change

battery drained off in 30-40 mins..

:(

does ATK make battery drain? somewhere along on some phone someone said that draining battery to nil and charging back cycle makes battery life even shorter.. dunno what to do..
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vivekmishra:
Calibrate your battery after doing a full charge. And use as "normal" for few normal cycles, just like you usually did.
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vivekchamoli:
Hi

Try using light version of g3mod kernel instead of oc based.

You can flash your phone with my Rom and test after full battery charge. note some apps are battery drainer like tweetcaster etc due to continuous sync.

Try to stop those services and test your phone thereafter..it will show improvement. .and dont delete any battery calibration seetting once done after you flash thats all.

Do let me know if it not happens.

Cheers.

it's been almost one year from purchase ryt?? Its time for a new battery..

PS: I had d exact prob.. I replaced the battery , prob solved.
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] satishynd:
@vivekmishra: did that performed two drain/full charge cycles.. still same condition

i flashed g3mod-2.0-nonoc

still when i try to put it to charge..

say currently it shows like 40% charge.. but as soon as i put it on charging (via AC) .. it shoots up directly to 90-100 in two minutes.... this should be wrong, right?

darin rate is also bad

it showed 100% charged and a 3 min call .. made battery level goto 45% :(

yea it's been a year well exactly a year

but i dont think it's battery prob coz i tried battery of other I5801 same thing happens.. :((

:confused:
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] i_rnb:
Humm.. Strange..! U sure the other battery dsnt got any prob??

Ok try this .. convert all partition to rfs & flash any stock ROM with stock kernel.. Use Ur phone like that 2-3days.. See if any improvement.. :)
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] satishynd:
err STOCK kernel means official right?

also how to convert parition to rfs.. is this about partitioning SDcard? coz if it is i've tried using without any card insert .. still same

i was thinking about G3mod 2.0 Beta2 kernel .. heard it uses very less battery..

but i've got a question ( and i can't ask in development forum as per post limitation) that does the 2.0 Beta2 uses less battery than the official samsung jp6 kernel? or should i try flashing that?

(now i may look like stupid asking these question)
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] satishynd:
first of all, sorry for bumping this after a month..

actually G3 wasnt with me from then, now it's back and problem persists

what i notice is that

1) phone when put to charge, shoots up to 100% in 5-10 mins, even when off

2) and same with the drain, it goes to 1% in 5-10mins

i checked out with battery, and it is fine they(samsung service center) say,..

plz help, i am at question as to what is the reason for this sudden rise and fall of battery level. :(
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mathias1xxX:
if u got a costum rom use battery calibration from the market its free it fix the drains happend whit me to

samsung galaxy 3 GT-I5800 running indroid v6 @1.3 Ghz
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] satishynd:
nope... i had used it before but now i am currently on I5801DDJP6 updated from 2.1 eclair via kies

its stock,unrooted, no modifications..

i'd calibrate battery, but the fact that it shoots up t0 100% in 10 mins

and what i guess is when phone detects 100% battery, it pretty much stops charging after that, thus battery starves ..

can something be done so that it actually gets accurate reading on battery status ?
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] porwaldivyam:
Switch off your cell...let it full charge....

Then switch on the device and flash the cyanogen mod...

Its fast,stable and also increases the battery power...

had the exact same problem...did that and now works for almost two days...:)
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bscraze:
It may be possible that your battery may have gone bad and you need to replace it
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] satishynd:
cyanogenMod site doesnt show Galaxy 3 support...

btw u are saying ROM or kernel?? coz i like stock ROM of samsung as it's easy to use

@bscraze i contacted service center.. they say battery's good and doesn't need replacement... :(
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] satishynd:
hey i discharged until phone switched itself off couple of times

and charged it back to 100% while phone was off and then again when ON..

then, i increased brightness,turned on wifi,bluetooh,gps,etc and it dropped to 90% ..

as it is stock rom i think it was between 90-100% (coz with 1% mod)

but as soon as a call came, which was of 2:38 seconds, my phone battery dropped off to 3% :(

any guesses, why this is happening?
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bscraze:
Cm7 is being ported by marcel and still has a few minor bugs and isnt fully working i think thats wjy the cm site doesnt show it. I have about the same problem as you im waiting to get my batt replaced. If it works i suggest you get one too. I'll probably get it nxt wk and I'll report here if theres any difference
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] satishynd:
what i have been able to detect from last two days is,

that battery fall is severe only when on voice call,

i have been playing music,games without much battery drain

but a mere voice call with everything off (GPS,bluetooh,dataconntection) for not more than 10 mins, drains battery by 20-30%

any ideas about it's reason?? o_O
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] headers.chennai:
Check out which app uses more battery in battery - settings - usage. That particular process may use more battery than others.

I have a similar problem with my G3 - I'm running CM 6.2

While I checked the OS takes 76% of the battery. I found CM6.2 better in handling FC than 7.1..Or should i just go back to Cm 7.1??

Experts, please advice
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] satyamsit:
Hello everyone. its long since i posted here and thats bcoz of only one reason .. battery problem with my phone. i really was getting pissed off by the issue that i stopped posting here .. cursing my bad old phone.. my battery was lasting near abt 6-10 hrs lately .. finally i decided to..

1. flash eclair (stock) JG6 which came along at the time of my purchase and had reasonable to good batt back up. flashed that and i was like 18-24hrs of batt backup. Used it for almost one week. and as i was surfing thru our threads.. saw some really encouraging post abt Kyrillos 9.3 and its battery backup. so..

2. I flashed kyrillos 9.3 for last 3 days .. and did the calibration on my very first charging after flashing 9.3.. yesterday got almost 36 hrs of batt backup .. right now m on 84%.. unplugged @ 8pm yesterday .. it 10:15am right now in india. so its around 14 hrs .. which i feel is quite good considering my past exp with my battery ..

I dont know what actually has done the trick or its illusion to me . but after flashing eclair my phone performance has gone up smartly.

Using 9.3 NON-OC. with a2sd enabled.

i hope it can help ppl abt our all confusing battery issue .. if not .. at least it can throw some light ...

Press the thanks button if u find it helpful. Hve a gr8 day. :)
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gurjot95:
Can you tell your usage? i.e Data Mode, Wifi, Music playback etc.
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] satyamsit:
after the first recharge when i got around 36 hrs of backup .. 8-9 short vioce calls... 2 hrs of music.. 10-15 mins of wi-fi .. no game.. from yday onwards it was only 4 voice calls as of now .. nothing else.
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] satishynd:
what's the battery drop during voice call??

coz today i had been playing music for over 3 hours with ok backup but a 10min voice call, emptied it all together...

how much was your total time on voice call??
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] satyamsit:
Battery drop at the time of voice calls are normal it seems, at least compared to my earlier ROM performances, I should say its huge. right now I am left with 18%.. 27hr running. 7-8 very short phone calls, and one call lasted 26+ minutes. Which is unimaginable AFA my ealier ROM perfs are concerned. And yes. The most interesting thing which i did notice is the drain upto 50 level is normal but suddenly after 50 level it getting awesomely good. i went down to 31 level at 12o'clock in the morning today .. now its 9:30 and its @ 18. and its staying at 18 for last 3-4 phone calls. all in all .. i can say m satisfied.

Those who r planning to migrate to kyrillos 9.3 .. i wud request them to flash their regional stock ROM before migrating to anything else. Bcoz u never know what actually does the trick for you ... :):):) .. cheers..

is battery level and voltage level in the battery info menu under *#*#4636#*#* related??

i mean when my battery voltage level reaches 4196mV i get 100% charged

but i get battery full null dead at 3600mV ... is this correct ??

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] alexrodri0:
well i was going through user.hv on a stock mango tmobile rom

and i saw this

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\SearchProviders\SearchProvider1]
"Url"=mui_sz:"TMOUS_SearchProviderString.dll,#102"
"DisplayName"=mui_sz:"TMOUS_SearchProviderString.dll,#101"

my theory is that you could *possibly* add that line of reg settings to another roms user.hv, not from tmobile and *possibly* use google search as a default

so i pulled the dll from the windows folder, i uploaded it in case someone wants to try to implement on other roms,

would someone please try doing this, i would try this if i were home, any feedback if it worked would be appreciated

sorry if i kind of don't make sense im running on two hours of sleep and im at work

[EVO 4G General] glenwill:
I'm having an odd problem, and wanted to see if anyone has experienced it.

My Evo was replaced by Sprint when it started randomly rebooting multiple times a day. The problem I am having never happened on the old phone, although given the nature of it, it seems odd to be a hardware defect.

Basically, whenever you engage Car Mode, either by running the car dock app manually, or by dropping the phone into the dock, the menu button stops working on the dialer screen.

By dialer screen, I mean both the dialer and the in-call screen, which I believe are part of the same apk. If you hit the Evo's Menu button, it vibrates as usual, but the menu does not appear. If I pull it from the dock or exit car mode, it reonsumes working as usual. It does not affect the menu button on any other application.

I have tried re-flashing rooted stock, flashing MikG GB Sense, Swagged out Stock. I have repeatedly wiped everything before and after flashes. I test it each time without installing anything else, so it's not caused by apps I've installed, unless the wipe process has left something laying around that will not go away.

I have googled the web, as well as searching this site. I can't find anyone else who has reported this issue.

Has anyone seen this, or have any ideas on solving it?
[EVO 4G General] glenwill:
I'll add that I tried flashing a rooted stock, and then taking my SD card out, just to make sure there was nothing loading from the SD card. Same issue with the menu button.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Tengis:
My Vibrant running the latest MIUI rom is much faster then every single rom Ive tried on the Galaxy S 4g. I tried a couple other roms with my Vibrant to compare (like the Bionix rom) and they also seem faster then everything Ive compared too.

So far the interface isnt anywhere near as smooth with anything on the 4g. All in all... Im dissapointed. Is this an issue with the roms or something physical on the phone?

User error. I have both phones as well.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Tengis:
Considering they are exactly the same phone and the Vibrant has more internal storage (which is obviously faster then external storage on the S4G) I assume that is what the difference is.
