[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 7_michel:
I made such test on HTC Desire and record the current drained with Battery Monitor Widget.

Screening a fully black photo drain about 100mA

Screnning a fully white photo and setting the screen lighting at 50% drain about 300mA

It is very important to put in mind that the sceen is one of the major battery drain source.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xtracrispy:
Cool... I will try this as well. I didn't know that there was a program that'd report the actual current draw of the phone :D

I imagine that the differential will be larger for organic LED devices, since we don't need to keep a backlight on.

Time to rethink the types on icons on my home screen!
[HTC Sensation] hanlence:
Is there an app that can end a call? i am using CM7, it will be very usefull if there is such an app that i can assign it to the long press of the search key
[HTC Sensation] sromer:
why not just use the end call button?
[HTC Sensation] SoFaKiNgStOkeD:
My thoughts exactly????
[HTC Sensation] KAwAtA:
I would think it'd be rather difficult to hold the search key when I could just press the huge red button
[HTC Sensation] s10shane:
isnt there an option on cm7 that u can make the power button end a call? i think it was under accessibility but not sure
[HTC Sensation] hanlence:
i brought up this point is because, sometime when i accidentally press the home key, or need to check other info during a call, then, it will just become convenient with an app like that
[HTC Sensation] hanlence:
can't find it, but it will be very nice if there was such an option
[HTC Sensation] geoffcorey:
To get back to your call,

1. drop down status bar,

2. click the phone icon,

3. ????????

4. Profit!!!!!!
[Motorola Photon 4G] deedscreen:
(This issue is RESOLVED, thanks for the help.)

Hello,

I had a few issues with my last Motorola Photon 4G, so I returned it, and got a new one.

Like an idiot, I rooted my phone, installed CWM and did a full restore.

I now have lost 4G Connectivity. How do I get 4G back? I know that this has something to do with the RSA Keys, if I didn't do a backup, how do I restore the RSA Keys?
[Motorola Photon 4G] xTMFxOffshore:
You didn't unlock the bootloader right? And you did a full restore from CWM? To what? What you had saved on your SD card from your other phone?
[Motorola Photon 4G] deedscreen:
Didn't unlock the bootloader, fresh out of the box, went home, rooted the new phone, restored a backup via CWM from my old phone. Dumb thing to do, now my 4G won't work. I forgot all about RSA keys and everything. So basically, I rewrote my RSA keys, and can't restore them since I didn't make a backup. Anyone know what I should do?
[Motorola Photon 4G] xTMFxOffshore:
Hmmmm.....try to pull your SD card and reformat your phone then do a factory restore and see if that takes you back to stock. Then try your 4G?
[Motorola Photon 4G] deedscreen:
I fixed it with a simple factory reset via the following method, (in case anyone ever runs into a similar problem),

"Power off the phone, press and hold volume down button, press power button

Screen will come up with "Fastboot", press Vol down key to cycle through choices until you get "Android Recovery", then press Vol up key

Wait for the "triangle ! / Android" screen then go on to step 4

Press both Vol up and Vol down key simultaneously. A menu will come up

Use the Vol Down key to select "wipe partition" by pressing the power button.

Once that is done continue to step 7.

Tap on Vol down key until "wipe data/factory reset" is highlighted, and tap Power key. Another Confirmation screen will come. Tap on Vol down key until coming to Yes and tap Power key

After userdata is cleared, the "reboot system now" option will be highlighted by Default. Tap Power key

Phone will reboot to initial setup screen."

I have 4G back, now I will root, install CWM, and restore /Data, or go by RSA keys, backup and restore.
[Motorola Photon 4G] xTMFxOffshore:
So more of less the route I was telling you to go. Glad you got it figured out. And that everything works for you now again. :]
[Motorola Photon 4G] deedscreen:
You are the best xTMFxOffshore, I notice that you have helped me a lot lately. When I need help, you have been here with the answers! You are the best!

(Sorry if I ever become too needy, and ask for your help by PM too much, please kindly let me know. I have been running into lots of issues lately, and you, Shabbypenguin, and Lokifish Marz, are, what I call... my "XDA Big Guns," so I call you guys in when I'm in deep oil.)
[Motorola Photon 4G] xTMFxOffshore:
I am just kinda bumbling my way through. Shabby and Loki are legit Devs. I just read a lot and learn from **** other people post and do. And things I screw up along the way. But no worries. This community SHOULD be about helping each other out.
[Bravo General] roadkizzle:
Alright, I have had my Bravo since January, rooted and flashed the BravoX RC2 rom along with a theme. During the summer, my wife was eligible for her upgrade, so we decided for me to upgrade to the Atrix on the condition that she was able to get the Bravo.

The phone has always had some freezing issues since updating to 2.2, but I think lately she has been getting very annoyed with this.

I would like to return the phone completely to stock, but due to the time since I last worked on it I'm a little unsure on how to go about it.

I wasn't expecting to get the upgrade when I did, and it was time sensitive so I didn't have time to remove my modifications to the Bravo before I gave it to her as I was planning, but a factory reset had removed all of BandroidX's apps, but left root access, the rom, and theme.

So, I know I will need to flash the 2.2 SBF to the phone in order to reset it completely to stock.

Because the phone currently is rom'ed and themed, do I need to first try to reset the phone using the BravoX bootstrap recovery?

Or does flashing the SBF completely overwrite everything that I've done with the phone erasing the rom, icon theming, and will it remove root access?
[Bravo General] FanDroid09:
If you flash the sbf your phone will be completely stock... fresh froyo. Root access and everything else will be gone.
[Bravo General] roadkizzle:
So, there won't be issues/conflicts with flashing the SBF all the way after having rom'ed and themed?
[Bravo General] FanDroid09:
No, flashing the sbf will erase your custom rom and theme for you.

Do you know how to properly flash the sbf with RSD Lite?
[Bravo General] roadkizzle:
Yes, I've done that a couple of times. Really just done it from stock, or close to stock though, and a little new to working within OS's so was wanting clarification how the sbf sets itself.
[Bravo General] Junkyardjames87:
I've been able to bring a few "bricks" back to life with there .sbf files. Love the things when flashing roms that have a bad bootloader or something else. Saved my skin several times. So ya flashing a .sbf is a total wipe and fresh install of whatever one you use. Just make sure you have a full battery at the start;)

[HTC Desire S] mackhenri:
Just want to know if anyone in India has got this update..
[HTC Desire S] psshashanka:
No OTA update yet..

Still have not got the update.. I think as of now only european countries are getting it... :(
[HTC Desire S] mackhenri:
Yes buddy....so all we can do is wait....
[HTC Desire S] zeekiz:
In regards to the OTA, if you had chosen to use some logic and had a browse of the desire s forum, you would have come to the conclusion that the OTA is I'm pretty sure isolated to certain handsets in Europe currently.

HTC as far as I am aware of has also not officially announced this update.

This should answer your question.

But if you so desperately need this update there is an RUU you could use to flash your phone without voiding your precious warranty. This would happen to be located in the HTC Desire S Development subforum.
[HTC Desire S] mackhenri:
I have been reading everything in this forum about the new sense update....I do know its not officially announced yet and even about the bugs as this update seems to be a beta testing........wanted to know if any Asian or Indian got it.........I would have tried many custom ROMs even within warranty but cannot as HTC has arranged a full body replacement for my phone.....and don't want to mess or screw up the phone before this.....yes I am new to Android but have done a lot of mods with many Nokia's.....
[HTC Desire S] zeekiz:
I really don't see much point in this thread then. Also it seems this is more or less a question as opposed to a general thread, in which, you should have used the Q&A forum.
[HTC Desire S] mackhenri:
Well didn't know where to ask this question as u are a senior in this forum and feel this thread is not required please tell me how do I remove it using DS as no option to remove and also tell me which RUU should I use for and Indian DS phone...
[HTC Desire S] liahos1994:
i sent a mail to HTC customers service asking the same..

Did you get the OTA update in Pakistan? Is your phone an Asian version?

What languages does it support?

Sent from my HTC Desire S
[HTC Desire S] pascallee:
The number .206 in the firmware version indicates the the phone is from UK O2 network. The asian version should have .707(Asia), .720(for india) or .832(Hong Kong), etc. in it's name.
[HTC Desire S] rakhan01:
@hamedunix

Yes, i got the update here.

Probably it's a uk version as i purchased it 'used' from the market. The languages list i've captured and attaching here.
[HTC Desire S] rakhan01:
@pascallee

Yeah probably. software info is attached.
[HTC Desire S] Electrostatic King:
No update

I guess there isint an official update out there yet....i personally tried contacting htc..and well i was on a online chat with their taiwan servers....although they first asked phone details. when i told them that, they could make out i was from india, so they said i should try to contact indian servers. I could still ask them about the official update, they did say it hasnt rolled out here yet...

I perosnally couldnt wait, so the only solution was rooting. Now i realise how powerful rooting is..so many customizable options....just love it.

Go ahead and give it a shot.
[HTC Desire S] rakhan01:
Doesn't it put your phone in the danger of fried chip or something?
[HTC Desire S] harshs23:
If you don't pull out the battery when the phone is on. You will not fry the chip.

If you do, you may fry it, does not matter if it's rooted or not.

Thanks buddies.....can I try the European RUU and will it work fine on my phone(Asian phone)...
[HTC Desire S] oed86:
In Thailand still no sense 3.0 update whatsoever. It's carrier-branded but it's not sim card-locked. (As a result of regulations here which forbids carriers from selling sim-locked phone.)

The most recent update was in early october. It increased android version from 2.3.1 (if I remember correctly) to 2.3.3. It also added 'dock mode' app and increased the size of stock (gingerbread) keyboard. I believe it also fixed some security issues of 'peep' twitter client too.

I'll wait till december or january. If sense 3.0 hasn't dropped by then, I'll consider RUU or custom roms. But right now I'm completely clueless as how to do that either.

[Verizon Droid Charge] spc_hicks09:
I'm trying to make a theme for myself and have everything looking pretty good. My only problem is that for the life of me, I can't get the Wifi or the Signal Icons to change. I went through the SystemUI and looked for the exact files I need to change, found them, changed them, flashed them, everything changed EXCEPT those icons lol. How in the world do I change these?

In the SystemUI, the icons that are for the stock GC GBE 2.0 are named vzw_stat_sys_signal_0 and so on. I've kept the names the same, kept the file format and siz the same, they still won't change. Neither will the statusbar, notification pulldown background or the statusbar header background.

Here's a list of all the icons that won't change:

Signal Icons

Wifi Icons

Statusbar Background

Statusbar Header Background

Notification Pulldown Background

Quicksettings Icon (Powermenu Mod)

If anyone can help with this, it would be greatly appreciated. After I made the icons I wanted, I swapped them out with the right ones but they will not change. Thanks guys!
[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
It's probably a shot in the dark, but have you cleared cache?
[Verizon Droid Charge] spc_hicks09:
I actually haven't lol, will check that out and report back with a yay or nay. Thanks! Can't believe I forgot to do that lol.

EDIT: Nope, didn't work. Thanks for the suggestion though!
[Verizon Droid Charge] XDAholic:
What program are you using to decompile make the changes and recompile the .apk's everything you want to change should be in systemUI.
[Verizon Droid Charge] spc_hicks09:
I'm using apkmanager but I haven't decompiled since I'm just replacing the images with ones I made. I'm not touching the XML files at all yet.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Endless2232:
Change them in framework-res.apk instead of systemui.apk. :)
[Verizon Droid Charge] XDAholic:
Won't work for gingerbread.....
[Verizon Droid Charge] XDAholic:
ok, so why use .apk manager? You could use 7zip to drag and drop images. if you are using any other program like ninjamorph, make sure USB debug is ON
[Verizon Droid Charge] spc_hicks09:
Using apkmanager to extract the .apks, rezip, then sign. I seriously don't understand what is causing them to not change. Every other icon changed perfectly except for those. No matter where I put them, they won't change.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Endless2232:
I don't have access to a computer right now but when I get the chance I'll see if I can get them to change.
[Verizon Droid Charge] spc_hicks09:
Thanks!
[Verizon Droid Charge] Endless2232:
Well i could change the wifi and signal icons just fine in SystemUI.apk. You may want to reset your apktool framework files and try again. =) What process are you taking?
[Verizon Droid Charge] spc_hicks09:
I have a folder on my desktop with the icon files I've made. Then this is the process I follow:

1. Take the framework-res and the systemUI from GummyCharged GBE 2.0 and put them in the "Place apk here for modding" folder.

2. Open the script and extract the apks

3. From there I just replace the images with mine

4. Zip the apks, it gives me the option for either:

--------1. System App (Retains Signature)

--------2. Can't remember this one.

5. Choose option 1 and wait for the apk to zip

6. Put the apks on my sdcard, using Root Explorer I move the files to /system/app and /system/framework

7. Turn phone off (instead of reboot), turn back on.

Battery icon changes, 3G 4G and 1x icons change. Just nothing else.

I've changed every single signal icon in these files and still can't get them to change. I noticed that someone (i think it might have been you) said to make sure I name the files like this:

vzw_stat_sys_signal_1_fully

Did that too and they still didn't change lol. I have no idea what's going wrong. This is the process I've followed 100 times, making my own little themes for my phone and it has always worked, until GummyCharged lol.
[Verizon Droid Charge] tezjet:
you should not be signing system files. make sure all you are doing is:

pulling apk, (in your case, SystemUI.apk, in the /system/app/ directory)

unzipping,

replacing .png and not .9.png unless you know how to edit those also,

rezipping,

adp push,

reboot and watch it work =P

I did mine the other day and all is well =P

---------- Post added at 01:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:02 PM ----------

the systemUI.apk has all the icons for the status bar, while the framework-res.apk has the background coloring etc. make sure u are editing the right stuff :)
[Verizon Droid Charge] spc_hicks09:
System files have to be signed though. I'm not signing them myself, apkmanager just retains the original signature.
[Verizon Droid Charge] cbrown245:
Systemui.apk does not need to be signed. I use root explorer and change the permissions place it in sys/app and reboot. Other system apps need to be signed not sysui and framework-res.

Spc get ahold of me on gtalk I can help with what I do know. And if I don't know I can get the info.
