I've experienced similar issues with the stock battery once in a while as well as have others. Once you switch back from airplane mode does the battery meter read proper all the way down to the end? After charging the phone, try switching to airplane mode for a few seconds and see if it prevents the error from happening at all.
[Streak 5 Android Development] slaydog:
You guys would be heroes if you could figure out the extended battery thing. To my knowledge no one has yet, but no one has tried at the kernel level.
[Streak 5 Android Development] lordmorphous:
Just got a random reboot with the gcc443 kernel. I am going to revert back to the 0.62b kernel. I had the most stability with it.
[Streak 5 Android Development] borijess:
Been using the nak kernal no reboots. Haven't tried 443.

[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
lordmorphous, borijess: to sum up:

Kernel upgraded to .14 version.

Applied two patches.

I'm testing version built with gcc 4.4.3 with ondemand governor and have no issues so far for a almost two days.

While i'm almost sure that nothing of above could lead for less stability, there's always a chance of it. Let's wait for more reports.

--

I'd also would like to hear, if dejitter patch makes buttons behaviour better or worse.

I'm happy with it. Screen goes off fine, power menu appears normally and camera app starts fine.

--

If anyone has enough time for contacting Mugen, I think we could solve battery issue with help of their developers, and afaik no dev member of our team has such battery. I personally think that it makes Streak less streaky(?) :)
[Streak 5 Android Development] btvbtv:
I had reboot with 443 yesterday, have fallen back to 0.62

To be honest, my last super stable version was froyo based. DSC is great, but has some room for improvement
[Streak 5 Android Development] smnc:
AFAIK, Mugen makes two batteries for the Streak. One stock sized and one huge one.

I'm going to run with this one as I've found myself with some spare time this weekend :-)
[Streak 5 Android Development] dsteinberg:
i have sent a mail to mugen this morning, lets see what happens....
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
dsteinberg, thank you!

BTW, any possibility to extract correct flash player from you current ROM?

--

@Team: I think we should postpone the release a bit, let's wait for more feedback.

Now, if anyone would be able to catch a reboot log...

[Streak 5 Android Development] dsteinberg:
Hello, sorry for the late reply, i followed your steps and the flash version is 11.1.102.59. this is the current one avail. on the market. FYI when i nandroided backed up 0.51b it must have been when i already removed the "original" flash version from system/app (proof is i do not have any flash player version in system app but only in data app).
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
Oh. I think we should simply remove flashplayer from ROM completely :)

Thank you!

Dude_Virus, would you provide more info of your test evironment - kernel, etc.?

Strange position. You sell a battery, not correctly supported by device, they at least should license that from Dell somehow...
[Streak 5 Android Development] ilian:
I've flash the 14 kernel yesterday over the 0.62b. Every thing looked ok until I found my Streak in the wallet very hot and with drained battery. It was about 2 hours after I unplug it from the charger.
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
Aknowledged.

Actually, i once experienced the same with 354 FW.

Would you revert back to 0.62b.

Meanwhile the team will perform more extencive tests.
[Streak 5 Android Development] ilian:
OK

If you guys need more info I can try to simulate it again.
[Streak 5 Android Development] ltrifonov:
I found once mine at same situation, and explanation was clear for me:

It was openvpn tried continuously to connect, but without networks available.

I think your reason for overheat is similar - some user process looping.

I do not have any problems yet with 14 (codesourcery build), it is strange, but i never experienced vdd, wifi disconnect or any other problem :) mine just works fine.

Actually, since i am using DSC, from 055b version, i have exactly one reboot, when traveling and navigating with iGO.

EDIT: We are over 1000 posts :) and over 100 pages :)

And, just to celebrate -

.14 kernel (Experimental14)

Changes:

DJT patch moved two levels higher.

"Backcover present" detection removed. (vikrammohan, i do keep track on requests :) )

[Streak 5 Android Development] Dude_Virus:
Hey thanks for the reply and thanks for going out of the way in looking at the battery issue. Really appreciate that..

Regarding the WIFI I have noticed the signal strength reduce than the stock rom. I have changed the channels on my router but nothing to help. Stock froyo 2.2.2 354 and 360 .. i used to get upto 3 bars uptil the remotest corner of my home but its dropped to 2 and sometimes even lower.

Regarding USB to trasnfer fles to trasnfer 4 GB its showing as 1 hour + whereas it used to be quicker and to test this I booted into streakmod and from there tried to copy and yes its transfered 5.38 gigs in 32 min.

System usb port 2.0

OS : leopard 10.5.8

Kernel - 2.6.35.7-DSC Team0.2+ included in the 0.62b

I can say this that there is no issue with the port or the os as i am able to get good speeds like i used to get on the streak earlier on my bro's phone when connected.

MUGEN told me that they contacted DELL and dell didnt help..what mugen says tht its a setting which forces the device to not detect anything apart from the stock battery ie:- 1500 mah.. is that something which the kernel can restrict.??

The reason why I can say this aint a streak hardware problem is because this issue was not there on android 1.6 .This started froyo onwards.
[Streak 5 Android Development] greg9100:
I've noticed we do have some battery settings to play within the kernel config;

Yet I am not certain which would be compatible with a mugen battery-

I don't have a mugen battery to test;

Although, I would assume it is MSM compatible, of which we actually do not have enabled in the kernel, based upon this line of thinking

--

Regarding the 4.4.3 built kernel, I've had bizarre slowdowns during device wake-up, I can confirm in other kernels I have built, this 'seems to happen' with this toolchain based upon past builds

trying the sourcery build today!
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
Dude_Virus, the only thing I can assume on the count - undervoltage. Would you please switch to ondemand with range 245-1152 - we in this case will stay to stock voltage values.

Thank you!

--

Greg, just as supposed, swap is not needed in Android, writing from test kernel :) Let's find some mem access hacks, that could give us a boost :)

I suppose all mem access funcs already dword aligned, but it won't hurt to check.
[Streak 5 Android Development] borijess:
Is this the latest kernal?

Sent from the SuperStreak! ;-)
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
Yes. While i'm unsure on swap disable effect, backcover can be removed safely now.

--

More, I plan to add some logging on "legit" system reboots, so we could probably gain more info on that.

Hay all,

Regarding Rogers Tethering, I upgraded to .62 a coupe days ago.

Today I swapped my Rogers SIM back in to my Streak to try tackling the tethering issue only to discover there was nothing to tackle.

Tethering is working flawlessley.

n0p, you can scratch that off the to-do list.

I'm also digging in to the Mugen battery issue.
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:

[Streak 5 Android Development] Dude_Virus:
Hi this change of the frequencies are you suggesting this for the WIFI or for the USB..?? I have the proc frequencies setup as 1152 - 1152 performance..would that still cause an issue.. just clarrifying before I go ahead and change them to 245 - 1152 ondemand.

---------- Post added at 12:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:32 AM ----------

Greg i think what they mentioned was that there is a CAP which is set to recognise only the stock battery ie:- 1500 mah. once the battery meter shows 1% if at that point i turn off the phone and take the battery out and put it back in it shows the charge again somewhat around 70% so the initial rundown to 1% in actual uses only less than 30% battery.

Is there any such CAP in the kernel.

Dude_Virus, using performance is a bit overkill :), but thank you - at least transfer is not related to undervoltage. If adb command available for macos, would do a simple transfer of file using adb push and adb pull commands?

Fix Flash player on latest versions

Any version after DSC v0.53b, flash player never worked properly, freeze or asking for flash player plugins even tho flash player 11.xx installed. Flash player works on some site and not other, like TVcatchup will just ask for flash player installation where youtube will just play video without any problem. PLEASE fix, for now i am back to version DSC v0.53 (best version so far, any version later/newer than this is not as good).
[Streak 5 Android Development] dsteinberg:
Unfortunately I have to make same observation about flash player. Imho and after trying to downgrade to confirm my doubts I can say quite certainly it has nothing to do with flash version in itself. Problems with flash seem related to the latest framework from 0.6 onwards. But I have to admit that its quite difficult to pinpoint as I found certain sites to work and others to have problems.

Sent from my Dell Streak
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
You see, framework from 406 is there from 0.5b. What I did wrong - I put flashplayer in 0.6 ROM. My bad. But i'm sure that cleaning system from flashplayer and reinstalling should help.

Anyway, i'll investigate the isuue more.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Dude_Virus:
Ok i changed the proc values to 245 - 1152 ondemand and still no change on the wifi signals or the transfer.... I have checked the USB trasnfer on windows XP , windows 7 and mac osx .. however still the transfer rate also tried streakmod recovery with all those 3 OS and with streakmod trasnfer is better than with the phone booted in OS.

But it has not impacted my environment-

Greg, our tests with streakOwner shows that GCC 4.4.3 produces more battery-friendly code than Codesorcery. More testing to be done. And i still want normally working kernel with BFS :)

Flash issue: any help would be appreciated.

Diretta Sky Online shows "Round waiting cursor" - may it be Italy locked?

xhamster works.
[Streak 5 Android Development] greg9100:
I agree regarding the battery life being better on 4.4.3, it seems like toolchains matter to some degree;

for me, on the flash issue, a delete and re-install, solved the problem-

I intend to build a kernel with BFS later today, for testing purpose

dsteinberg, so the 0.6 gives you in Diretta Sky online "waiting cursor", but it's fine in 0.5? If so, that at least give a point to start checks.

Sorry, I have tried searching this thread but I am running Simple Steak and would like to install this ROM.

I understand I need to upgrade my baseband as I am running 315EU, but for the life of me I cant get my phone into Fastboot mode to use the Flash app, even though I rooted it last year (the PC was XP then if that helps).

When I plug the phone into my Windows 7 PC, nothing pops up. I have checked Device Manager, nothing there. I have installed Android SDK, Dells Sync UP and my PC still cannot see the phone.

As I have Clockwork on the phone, is there any way I can do this without putting the phone onto the USB as there is something on the PC I think blocking the recognition of the phone.
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
jazzdude555, it would be impossible to upgrade baseband without cable (as you need alternate recovery for it).

Do you use original dell cable?

You could also try to install teminal emulator on phone, do a

su

logcat

and see, if the phone detects anything.
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
dsteinberg, you are pure genius!

Reverting /etc/hosts to default makes Diretta Sky Online work!

Remove everything from your /etc/hosts and place there one line:

@Greg: currenly using proposed values from the article, and transition from low frequency seems to be much better, but at cost of (very little) reduced overall performance. Battery life should be a bit better, but too early to decide.

I have a new BFS test kernel-

config changes:

(1500) PMIC default output voltage - to my memory DJ Steve's original setting

For the possibility of supporting Mugen Batteries-

added built in driver support for:

<*> MSM battery

<*> Fake MSM battery

Here it is for test purpose as flashable zip: x

Great!

Had no time at Friday, but on Monday i'll send you and Lubo revised DJT (still not perfect, I cannot skip rpc events completely, just moved it at first handler) and backcover patch, for review and inclusion into Experimental14 branch.

Have you disabled swap in this build?

1500 is a bit too much (if it actually has effect, as freq table supplies it's own values), and tps driver is locked at 1600 max.
[Streak 5 Android Development] greg9100:

Battery: the only thing that comes to mind, is training android battery analyzer -
