Can you point me to a good way to do this? Do you find that OC affects your battery life??? Mine is terrible.
[Epic 4G General] ugothakd:
I think you mean RFS. And yes, some people worship ext4.

But really op? 110 apps?! I have 25...
[Epic 4G General] MДЯCЦSДИT:
Wipe data and flash SRF
[Epic 4G General] Milkman00:
I dread doing this. I use two paid backup programs (Titanium and MyBackup).

Neither of them seem to backup the actual data that the applications use. What do I mean by that? I am talking about the saved login information for an app, as well as preferences, etc. It is never as easy as it should be. :(
[Epic 4G General] mouseglider:
I would only do the kernel and not a rom yet, baby steps! Read the OP at least 3 times so you can understand.

Make sure you make a nandroid before you try this, just in case somethings goes wrong. When overclocking, don't mess with undervolting until everything is stable, then baby steps.

I run exactly whats in my signature. I have duplicated the same setup on my wife's phone with the exception that I keep hers clocked no higher than 1.3ghz. Where I float back and forth between 1.3ghz and 1.4ghz, because I am testing battery life. I get as good or better on battery life and a snappier phone on 1.3ghz and a little less battery at 1.4ghz, but that is only when I play a game at 1.4ghz. Under normal daily usage, I would still have to give the edge in battery life to 1.3ghz, but 1.4ghz sure is fast!
[Epic 4G General] Shinydude100:
I have the free version of Titanium Backup and my App Data restores perfectly.

I'm thinking same as one of the other posters, more than one instance of your apps are killing your ram, what I do is chop down on apps, and look at what apps are running under processes. Remember that out of those 110 apps you have installed, not every single one has optimized programming code, so in theory, half of those are making new bugs that your phone has to bitterly endure. For titanium backup I do batch restore apps+data. Maybe you're just not restoring right. There's so many options that I find it possible. Imo opinion, I don't reccommend OC if you want battery life and for your epic's overall life to end sooner. As for gingerbread news nothing new yet, but it'll come out when we least expect it, I'm sure.
[Epic 4G General] mouseglider:
I have MyBackup Pro and I don't even use that anymore, as I nandroid every 3 to 5 days or when I am going to do something drastic that could cause problems from the unknown. As an example my last unknown that was kind of glitchy was when I upgraded to Superuser went to 3.0

If you are rooted, just do a nandroid, if you have a crash, it will bring everything back just like it was when you made the nandroid.

Flash clean kernel for EC05

Sent from my SPH-D700
[Epic 4G General] || Acer ||:
Lol that would probably give him other problems.

Sent from my Galaxy Tab 10.1
[Epic 4G General] mouseglider:
And "that" is why I said to just flash a kernel first. I am almost sure he would go nuts, because he has to flash SRF 1.1 first then SFR 1.2, then a kernel and make sure he has been converted to ext4 from rfs, than probably have journaling on, and the list goes on.

Go kernel first! And if that works and is stable and your phone works perfect after a week of use, then you can go on to the next step!
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
That is awesome advice. That is what I did back in November. Genocide was the first thing I flashed after rooting to change my bootanimation.
[Epic 4G General] rocket321:
Its due to apps on sd card having a shortcut on a home screen or on a folder on a home screen. I don't think file system, kernel, or ROM will improve that very much. I would hate for you to go to all the work to find no improvement.

The cache and speed tweaks could help and a faster card could help. You might also give a new launcher a try. In the end, I decided to just keep apps on internal memory that I needed on home screen. Same as the 98% - 2% guy above.
[Verizon Droid Charge] spc_hicks09:
Can't believe that now the Thunderbolt AND the LG Revolution are going to have Gingerbread and we're still left in the dust. WTF Verizon!?!

http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/1...rbread-update-should-start-rolling-out-today/
[Verizon Droid Charge] jmorton10:
So flash a custom ROM, what's the problem??

~John
[Verizon Droid Charge] jkbucksot:
+1

With the amount of roms that are out, no need to get your panties in a bunch over what other oems are pushing out.

Keep supporting out devs with donations and they will continue to bring forth great roms and tweaks
[Verizon Droid Charge] landshark68:
Thunderbolt was released two months before the Charge, and I believe the Revolution was released around the same time as the Charge. So naturally the Thunderbolt update would be released before the Charge update. Actually the Thunderbolt already had one release that was pulled a day or two later because of problems. So based on the phone release timeline, this makes sense. We're basically next in line. We're not getting screwed or cheated. Yes, it's taken a long time, but that's big red for you.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Sleek69:
We shouldn't have to flash a custom rom to get gingerbread. We currently have the best phone on verizon's lineup (most people can agree the bionic is garbage) and its the last phone stuck on froyo. Unacceptable.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jkbucksot:
I know I know, had the bionic for 3 days before taking that **** back to vw. Best phone they offer.

Not trying to put out your frustrations but look at it this way. The way that technology is, Samsung (and all other OEM manufactures) are loosing money updating their current devices.

Technology is changing so fast that most companies have almost all their devs working on future devices. In the company I work for, the most senior devs work on future projects because they are trusted with their work. While the junior devs work on or updating last years crap.
[Verizon Droid Charge] spc_hicks09:
The problem is that we should have it already. The Thunderbolt came out before the Charge so naturally it would get updated before us. But the Revolution came out after the Charge and now its getting updated. Its just frustrating that our "flagship" device is getting skipped over (for right now).
[Verizon Droid Charge] Turb0wned:
Flashing a Rom is NOT a solution. I'm sorry but I hate when people say this. A phone as new as the charge should have official updates. This and having crappy phones or basicly the same.phone coming out 2 months later is what's killing Android.

[Verizon Droid Charge] rand4ll:
Don't get me wrong I want GB as well, but what functionality and features are all of you missing by not having GB? I am assuming we are only talking OTA here. Also LG will be quicker to release because they have a lot less phones to support...
[Verizon Droid Charge] spc_hicks09:
It's not about features, it's about simply getting the updates that we should be getting while phones like the Revolution and even way older phones are getting the GB update. For all we know, the OTA could be better than the ROMs (complete sarcasm here). Still, it's just frustrating to not be "officially" updated.
[Verizon Droid Charge] rand4ll:
So it's simply the version number it displays? Otherwise you would not really know since there is no features you are specifically needing or just wanting but lacking?
[Verizon Droid Charge] spc_hicks09:
Nevermind, you obviously have no idea what I'm saying.
[Verizon Droid Charge] vash1053:
Heh, the level of complacency among some Android users is staggering isn't it? Only on Android can you buy a "flagship" handset that not only ships with an outdated OS (froyo), but won't be eligible for an official update announced within ~six months of the device's release (ICS).

To anyone who thinks it isn't an issue: Google wouldn't be trying to fix it if it weren't a problem.
[Verizon Droid Charge] ijustdontcare:
And, Google is trying to fix it, but when any other new business management steps in to fix a problem. They focus all their resource's into preventative measures for future products. It take a major crisis for them to reach back to a product already behind the curve, and spend any real resources.

I am also disappointed that they are not paying attention to the first lte phone to keep debugging the new network. I think that big red's to blame, for their are many, with bad data problems.

I also think that we should have had another OTA update, but most app's functionality has been ported thru to 2.2 SO, I think an official udate to GB is going to be a long time coming.

ICS! That a long wait for a train ain't comin'!
[Verizon Droid Charge] BleedsOrangeandBlue:
since you're a flasher as well, you should be the one really clamoring for it so we get some source code action for our few remaining devs.
[Verizon Droid Charge] XDAholic:
if the galaxy nexus comes out before the charge gets a gingerbread release, I don't think devs are going to invest much effort into the charge and will be busy working on the nexus!
[Verizon Droid Charge] hiien:
why do we need an OTA GB? Because ICS.
[Verizon Droid Charge] rand4ll:
Oh I can't wait until it does drop. The kernels that will come available will blown away what we have now even though they are no slouch either. However I do not feel entitled to an upgrade either. Back when I had dumb phones I never EXPECTED more than what the phone came with. I do see that the ecosystem around smartphones is a different animal but also am a developer for a fortune 200 financial services company. Based on my experience in the IT industry and dealing with business partners and their reasoning behind funding this and not funding that, and seeing actual numbers I can totally see the justification behind updates for already released phones not being a priority, even if I don't like it, it's the reality of the situation.
[Verizon Droid Charge] projectD:
official GB probably comes in 2 months, it goes according to verizon's speed on releasing GB.

This is my experience of the Droid 2 not getting GB until August this year.
[Xoom Accessories] Trig0r:
Flattened my Xoom earlier, as I do everynow and again to full cycle the battery.

Came back to it a bit later and it had charged up to 40 odd %

Used it for a while then it suddenly said the battery was flat and switched off..

Anyone else had this, am I looking at a dead battery or should I just leave it swtiched off and on charge overnight?
[Xoom Accessories] rockhumper:
It shouldn't be, lithium ion batteries don't have as intense a memory problem as the old nicad batteries...maybe just wipe the batteries stats in clockwork for good measure and take it from there. Sorry I forgot to mention that this would assume you are rooted. All my Android devices have weird jumps like that, but not usually that extreme.
[Xoom Accessories] Trig0r:
cool, I'll clear the battery stats and see what it says in the morning.

[Xoom Accessories] Trig0r:
Good job I checked here before I went to sleep eh

:-)
[Xoom Accessories] SEALen:
Lithium batteries do not like to go all the way down to dead (so low the device won't even start). They wear alot if you do. There is no reason to cykle them after the first time charge as there is no memory effect on them.

I had a laptop battery partially charged installed in my laptop and did't use it for two weeks. The battery went compleatly dead and when I charged it I only got like 20% into it before it said full. I had to buy a new battery.

So don't leave your XOOM with 1% battery for a long time. If you are not gonna use it for a prolonged time charge it up to about 75% before leaving it.
[Xoom Accessories] Troute:
SEALen is correct, Lithium batteries should not be fully discharged it significantly shortens their lifespan, there is also no memory effect, the only battery type that ever did have one is NiCad.

The best way to keep a lithium battery healthy is to charge little and often, keep it topped up.
[Xoom Accessories] joshndroid:
+ 1 to your arguments however if he is doing a calibration, i let it get to 1% before charging it again, i dont let it die i watch battery widget pro and watch the mA.. This will not fix a battery but give better indication of its lifespan
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blueman101:
Hey guys, I love my Nexus One and have no plans to Axe it, but im curious if anyone has gone through Assurance with the Nexus One recently. Certainly they arent replacing it with a new Nexus One since they have not been manufactured in months. What is the current replacements for the Tmobile Nexus One through Assurance?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilkorn:
I'm sure if you called and gave them your account number they would be able to tell you what the replacement is, even if you had no plans to replace it at that time.
[Motorola Droid 3] vbhokiefan:
Just loaded TheMuffStuff's ICS theme for Liberty here and it worked fine for me although it is 'technically' for the Bionic.

The only issue I've noticed is a weird shadow under the status bar, but depending on your wallpaper, you won't necessarily notice it.
[Motorola Droid 3] kejar31:
Really any theme for the Bionic and the D3 version of Liberty should work with one another as the framework and apps are the same
[Motorola Droid 3] dco717:
Works good just need the pulldown power options to be bigger also the buttons select are dark ex. Advanced task killer the kill apps button is dark grey almost fades into background its an eye sore
[Motorola Droid 3] Androidsims:
Task killers became obsolete with Froyo....

As for the theme, awesome! Just what I've been looking for.

Task bar looks nice in synergy but the rest just looks ghetto to me.
[Motorola Droid 3] jayklx:
looks good, but use cm7 now :)
[Motorola Droid 3] Phibernaut:
Boot animation is insane but my home page looks the same other than the notifications. Is this supposed to change the look of the Liberty dock?
[Motorola Droid 3] tacosrdelicioso:
Haha..this is good...whenever I boot out of safe strap this is what's on my original /system lol good theme
[Motorola Droid 3] ChaoticWeaponry:
Open your phone (slide out keyboard) at the lockscreen. My lock buttons are backwards. :P
[Motorola Droid 3] kern417:
Where did you find the dock icons
[Motorola Droid 3] sbardy:
it doesn't seem like ICS :(
[Motorola Droid 3] kern417:
bump does anyone know where the OP got the glowing/outline launcher pro icons
[Motorola Droid 3] Yonnor:
Looks like the regular Launcher Pro Icons with a backglow.

Theres a paid app that you can get them from I believe (Link)

Or you can get them for free, just without a glow here (Link), you'll have to longpress, and save the icon. Then set the dock icon as "Custom" and choose the icon you want.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] lobfredd:
Hello, my u8800 just died..

i got a blue screen a couple of time and had to pull the battery.

now it is completely dead... ? how so?

it was running MIUI just fine and i just rebooted it and got a blue screen..
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] katu2006:
What happens if you press and hold Vol+,Vol- and Power?

Can you still get into Bootloader?

Bluescreen usually wipes the Bootloader, but you can fix that if you can still access it...

In case you lost all the data in Bootloader (pink screen), format the partition with FAT32, create a folder called "image" and copy the following files on there.

EMMCBOOT - http://www.mediafire.com/?lb6ifvgk72iru4a

AMSS.MBN - http://www.mediafire.com/?d6r45q6p5gew59v

Recovery.img - http://www.mediafire.com/?57njygc8oianjac

Boot.img - http://www.mediafire.com/?6d5i0714a7o9z97

If you can't access the Bootloader (pink screen), I'm afraid it's going back to warranty.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] AntonioLordelo:
same thing happened to mine, still trying to fix it. managed to flash CWM recovery like that but now factory reseting leads me no where, of course, and restoring a backup from the sd didn't work either, all i get is a bootloop.

i'm so very lost :( please help, tell me what you need to know to help me
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] katu2006:
DON'T factory reset or restore a backup! Once you've had a blue screen, you CAN'T restore or factory reset a Rom.

You should flash a custom Rom directly. Just copy the Oxygen.zip (http://sourceforge.net/projects/u8800oxygen/files/) in the root folder of the SD card and then wipe data, cache and dalvik cache.

Flash the new Rom by Selecting "install zip from SD" and select the Oxygen.zip archive, the installation process does everything else.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] lobfredd:
Thanks GOD!

It was completely dead, but when i wake up this morning i got it on with bluescreen again, hooked it up with my pc and copied the files u linked.

now it seems MIUI is booting fine again!

but how come it got wiped in the first place?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] katu2006:
Not sure to be honest...It's some sort of miscommunication between bootloader and Rom (kernel) and Huawei designed a fail-over mechanism that wipes the bootloader (screen becomes blue when this happens).

Anyway, glad to hear that you got it going again. :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] AntonioLordelo:
wow thanks katu2006 xD I just realised how stupid I was

you see this whole thing happened, I think, because I tried formatting a NTFS sd card I put in the phone. I wanted to put files bigger than 4GB in it...

so when I got the blue screen and then managed to boot into CWM recovery, all I had to do was flash a ROM, I knew that, but my internal sd card was wiped clean and I couldn't access it in my PC when I plugged the phone. then I just figured I should get another sd and put MIUI in it and then stick in the phone LOL it's working fine now, thanks a lot
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] katu2006:
:) Glad to hear that you problem was resolved as well.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] balderhell:
I have the same problem with my U8800. And I follow your direction and I can log in to the Miui rom, but it has the notification "Blank SD card or unsupported file system" and ask me to format the SD card. But when I format the SD card, it change into the blue screen again in the next reboot time. What should I do.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] katu2006:
OK, you should copy the SD Card contents to your computer, format it with FAT32, copy the folders back and then try to boot in Recovery and reinstall Miui again.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] turbo.exe:
I also had such a problem. And as in your situation, my solution was to copy those files into 'image' folder. Though, blue-screen-trouble is still actual and we have to blame only huawei-guys :)

Is your IMEI allright? after some of theese operations, I had mine nulled.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] balderhell:
Thanks for your advice; I have flash the new Miui rom, and I can format it normally. Now, my phone is ok.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] efray:
so i have the same problem i just did wat u say the phone give me the ideos screen then restarts also cant get into bbotloader

thnx

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Hauraki:
I beg to differ - for me when I had a blue screen yesterday - tried everything other than reflash. In the end I pushed a clockworkmod backup to the internal sd card via adb, did a restore and problem solved.

[HTC EVO 3D] sparhawk6:
After shattering my screen, I'm on my second EVO 3D sent by Asurion. Both reboot constantly. I can reproduce it on the second phone (which is remanufactured) - it happens after I turn the phone on to the lock screen, and let the phone sit there until it sleeps on its own. About 15 seconds after the screen goes dark, it reboots. Hardware version is 2.

So now asurion is sending me a third phone. Do they even test these phones that are sent back??? It seems they are sending me all the phones that wouldn't work because of constant reboots, without actually changing or "remanufacturing" anything!
[HTC EVO 3D] aimbdd:
Ahaha good luck. I have gone through 6-7 replacements before. Refurbs are horrible

Sent from my HTC Evo 3D.
[HTC EVO 3D] phatmanxxl:
Does this happen out of the box/with no apps?
[HTC EVO 3D] TaintedByte:
When I broke my screen (like an idiot, never happened to me EVER) Asurion sent me a replacement phone, it was brand new (was like a month after the release of the 3D, didn't have refurbs then) and it did exactly the same thing yours did, so they sent a new one.

The one they sent (that I currently have) is flawless, don't get any reboots by itself, screen is straight, no dust under the screen or light leakage BUT it has one dead pixel on the bottom left, I tried to get it replaced, they did sent a new one, but that one had more dead pixels so I stuck with the one they first replaced. Unfortunately, I don't think they do test them but in my experience they had no issues sending a replacement for the replacement. It's a pain but at least you'll get one that works... eventually.
[HTC EVO 3D] stevventimm:
I am still on the first 3D I got from sprint 3 days before it was released to the public release. No problems. Couldn't be happier.
[HTC EVO 3D] novanosis85:
1 dead pixel on mine, got it pre launch day but the dead pixel came 2 months later. I deal with it.
[HTC EVO 3D] sparhawk6:
Yes.
[HTC EVO 3D] mattykinsx:
Well, let em get to number 5 and then they will send you the check for the value of the phone and you get to go buy a brand new one. :p

It is amazing how crappy the quality of Asurion's replacements are.
[HTC EVO 3D] thedarknsin:
I've always used blacktie through bestbuy but even then they don't test the phone unless you ask them too, example I had them replace the OG evo for me for a shattered screen and when I got it back the mic was busted. Because I had no idea it was busted before I gave it to them, they didn't check it and I got back a worthless phone lol.
[HTC EVO 3D] taminrob:
If you get another bad phone, tell them you want a new one, not refurbished because of all the problems you have been having with them...I did that for my wife when she got her 3rd bad phone, and they sent the new one...maybe I just got lucky, but it wont hurt to ask.
[HTC EVO 3D] sparhawk6:
Except my first replacement WAS new, but it rebooted constantly.
[HTC EVO 3D] sparhawk6:
UPDATE: I'm on my third phone. This one froze 3 times in the first few hours, and I think it rebooted once, but hasn't frozen or rebooted since (in the subsequent ~20 hours). Crossing my fingers, especially since this is an HBOOT 1.3 :)
[HTC EVO 3D] dagnasty:
I just dropped my 3D in water and have TEP so I'm covered. What HBOOTs are Assurion replacements coming with?
