[GT540 Optimus General] H0w4rd:
I've have had similar problems with the battery on my GT540 with all cyanogenmods - 2.3.7, 4.0.4, 4.1.2. There were no such problems with original 2.1 ;) I think it is the price for the newer versions, I can live with that, I don't have to buy new phone ;)
[GT540 Optimus General] winkle_sharma:
Same here...battery draining very fast....tried near about 10-15 roms...bt almost same rslt :(
[GT540 Optimus General] LeoPosas:
It's normal after a couple of month of use, depends how many times you discharge your battery, remember...battery life it's very short on smarthphones.

lg gt 540 battery

Hi

I ve got LG GT OPTIMUS 540 android version- 2.1 and i have the same problem. If i dont use my phone batery can be dead in 5 hrs but if i use it 2-3hrs...my phone battery usage says android system eats 95%...is it norm or bad?
[Epic 4G General] metalblaster:
When im using odin, is it good for the phone to not check restart, and pull the battery instead then restart? This really is in refrence to rooting the EH11 system. It takes a few times to get odin to actually boot strait into CWM when i flash it over but if the phone reboots then CWM gets overridden. This is the only surefire way ive seen thus far to get it to work every time and before i recommend it to anyone, id like to know if there is a theoretical room for damage to the phone or filesystem by pulling the battery after odin completes.

I really like the Samsung keyboard that comes stock with this phone. I have large fingers and this is the only keyboard that seems to fit me perfectly and allow me to type without making mistakes. GummyCharged never includes the original samsung keyboard.

Does anyone know how to get the Samsung keyboard back?
[Verizon Droid Charge] blueis300:

Copy .zip to sdcard. Boot into cww and install keyboard.zip. Reboot and change keyboard. Worked for me.
[Verizon Droid Charge] PKizzo36:
You ROCK!! Thank you very much I haven't been able to find this anywhere!

You've been thanked!!
[Verizon Droid Charge] cujo6801:
thanks......
[Verizon Droid Charge] Droidianslip:
Anyone have a screen shot of that keyboard? I'm looking for the one that will give you another character with a long press
[Verizon Droid Charge] blueis300:
The samsung one is basic so its either a gingerbread keyboard or sywpe. Take a look at what the market has to offer.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Charger13:
hey guys downloaded that keyboard zip and followed the instructions worked grate
[Verizon Droid Charge] blueis300:
Glad it worked, there is the ICS keyboard out now people are using. Read it is a little bigger and is quicker(how its quicker dont know).
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PJcastaldo:
So i called Tmo today to replace my Vibrant because my headphone jack has been acting up lately and they offered me a Sidekick as an alternate. I asked for the SGS 4G instead but they wouldn't do that.. Funny since the SK is alot newer than the SGS 4G.. But i declined since it has much less internal storage and honestly kinda looks girly..

What do you think? Would you have taken the SK?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iynfynity:
You still have the Vibrant?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gun:
You can replace that part. It is $12 on eBay. It comes together with earpiece speaker. There is a video on YouTube how to do it.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PJcastaldo:
Yeah I still have it.

Thank you, but it is unnecessary since I have warranty.. :D

But would you guys have taken the SideKick over a replacement Vibrant. ??
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shortbus-Driver:
Hell no lol
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iynfynity:
Don't even think about it.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SamsungVibrant:
Sidekick over Vibrant? no way!

Good thing you didn't do it!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N8ter:
Absolutely not that's like going from a Captivate to an Aria, Imo.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PJcastaldo:
Ha so crazy enough I got my new Vibrant and the Camera is fudged up... Even totally stock I just get a Camera failed error..... So I called TMo and even though i have a warranty they wouldn't replace it unless I did the keys mini upgrade to 2.2... :mad:

Unfortunatley my internet was down today and i couldnt do it.. They refused to do the replacement unless i did this.. What kills me if this is really a big deal than why does it ship with 2.1 on it???:confused:

So after around 45 minutes going back and forth I spoke to a specialist who proceeded to tell me they couldn't break this rule. She did however lower my monthly bill and got me upgraded to a brand spanky new SGS 2 for 35 bones.. :D Granted I used one of my lines 2yr upgrade but she knocked over 200 off in instant rebate..

So my faith once again is restored in TMo.

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] sakindia123:
some suggestions:(after wip is removed!)

1)Replace kpm ramdisk with kpn

2)i forgot!

Also,while compiling zImage,there were quite a few errors...hopefully u will look into those
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] DooMLoRD:
u might actually want to add latest modules which are compiled...

and if u want to use older modules atleast correct the CONFIG_LOCALVERSION to match the vermagic string for modules else modules wont be loaded and device might fail to boot...

also such scripts are only useful if u have confirmed that there was no issue while compiling...

initially u should just compile to check if there are any issues...

>>>

cp $HOME/kernel_i9003/out/config_old $HOME/kernel_i9003/.config

<<<

thats not the "correct" way...

u should use:

make device_defconfig

another thing:

>>>

echo ' Compile kernel'

make

<<<

this is going to be so slow... use atleast -j4 on single core machine.... on my dual core i3 i use -j8

also we generally dont put such stuff in kernel source folder...

generally we keep:

kernel/

out/

toolchains/

another tip: use toolchains from CM repo, both 4.4.0 & 4.4.3 work ;)

P.S.: ur boot.img build script is copied from Skin's script... atleast keep the original "credits" intact ;)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] sakindia123:
CAN SOMEONE teach me how to un-cpio the zImage?i tried the script available @xda wiki but it doesnt work!!

plz help
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] DooMLoRD:
the zImage is compressed kernel... u cant get anything out of it...

u can however get ramdisk (initramfs) [which is (generally) cpio.gz file] out of boot.img

find unpack-bootimg.pl on xda
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vurrut:
DooMLoRD,Thank you for your help, I was going crazy because I could not start it. From what I've rewritten the script.

The first script is based on github of skin's.

I've been working on a new one.

I thought that by writing "WIP" will understand, and helps me..:) (sorry!)

In second version,I had already included the .config changes (moved to debconfig folder) and make -j6. (or -j8?, in CM version use that)

then, should not use the version 4.4.0 (toolchain-2009.q3 the web)?,dont work?

Aditional, I had thought about doing directly with ADB commands

adb shell ... bla bla

dd if=../normalboot.img of=/dev/block/bml7

problems with that?

thank you very much to ALL.

In monday update te github server.Sorry to my spanglish.

I just replaced my Captivate with an AT&T Galaxy S 2. I had a jig that I bought from mobiletechvideos.com for the captivate. Will that jig work on my Galaxy S 2? Also, will it work on Sprint's Galaxy S 2 Epic Touch 4g? Or are there design differences between the jigs so some won't work on all phones?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] qwertyaas:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] QuarkGluonSoup:
I emailed some people and it looks like there have been some changes. I have also seen many people post that they tried a Captivate jig on a GS2 and it often doesn't work. It looks like, if your jig is more than a couple months old, you should get a new one.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] silver91342:
I believe its the same resistance but the newer Galaxy line is more sensitive to the value, if its a higher quality parts then it should work fine. I think mobiletechvideos one's worked for some people but can't confirm as I don't really care about the triangle or flash counter (most people confirmed that AT&T and most retail stores won't/don't know how to check it, only Samsung does)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RockRatt:
I can confirm that the one I bought from MobileTechVideos for my captivate works flawless in my ATT SGS2.

Sent From My KickAss ATT SGS2 SPORTING CM7
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
Yup. The nominal value of the ID resistor hasn't changed - but it's clear the GS2 is more picky about tolerances.

So some Captivate jigs will work, some won't. Any GS2 jig should work on any Captivate though, since the only difference is the resistor value tolerances.

I'm currently using Silent Time Lite but it'll only let me allow specified contacts through. I'd like to know if there's another app out there that will allow those contacts and anyone who calls say two or three times in a row through. This way, say if my mom wanted to get a hold of me but her phone is dead, she can pass a filter that will allow a call through if say three attempted calls are made within 2 minutes, it'll flag it as important.

Don't take my word for it but I thiiink you could do it with Tasker.

For a few weeks there the leaks where coming one a week, sometimes two. Now nothing. Wonder if its the calm before the OTA storm.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Skyroket:
This is just another piece of evidence in my theory that someone somewhere has made it their job to sit there and **** with the hackers and modders all day long.

The thought has crossed my mind to just go back to 100% stock, but I'm just too addicted to having at least root.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] stevessvt:
If you ever installed any of the leaks, there is no going back to 100% stock.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] alodar1:
Generally, traffic like we've seen means one of a few potential things.

First, a specific phase in dev is complete. The testers provided, information/confirmation of results and they are moving on to next phase.

Second, they are now in a bake period, letting it sit ages days before processing for release.

Third, it's is ready but don't want to release with Razr. Normally multi releases are no big deal but they have a nice budget for advertising and are releasing in multiple formats. They may want to have some focus.

My guess is 2. 8 weeks post release is still early for an ota, so they have time. Reading up in the results of the ota seems to indicate a fair amount of success. Some last minute fine tuning may be in order. I doubt they want to stretch this to the week of thanksgiving...so its next week or december. Just my opinion
[Motorola Droid Bionic] GoBears:
I'm just glad they leaked what they did. Really helped me not smash my Bionic into little tiny pieces. I hope they are still working on it because there are still problems with it.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] papi92:
The leaks have stopped bc they have pushed out a final release candidate till the next update.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] alodar1:
I got crucified on another forum for suggesting multiple releases. They might burn you in effigy.

:confused:
[Motorola Droid Bionic] wanderfowl:
One other factor is that the devs working on it are likely playing their cards much closer to their chest, now that Motorola seems to be actively working to counter the efforts of developers. So, I suspect many things are going on with the devs, and likely releases are being found, but they're not being discussed.

Cant you get back to stock by running moto-rooter fastboot?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] r0ckstar323:
With a locked bootloader, No. You can restore the stock system but the radio and kernal cant be rolled back because the update only goes one way.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Hashcode:
I disagree. As I recall (I haven't done it with the latest file format from Motorola) you can reset the entire phone using the fastboot restore files no matter what version of kernel/BP you have.

You start by flashing the "cdt.bin" file first. This resets the signatures that are verified on all of the other partitions.

Then do the entire set of files which will completely reset all of your partitions on the phone + the BP code.

If it's not CDT.bin first, then it's 1 of the other partitions, then the CDT.bin, and then the whole set of files.

I didn't see a thread about this yet, but a Powerskin seems to be available for the Amaze. I know a lot of us wish the battery life could be better and here is a good way to solve that problem. I would rather have a trident electra case, but If this will do. The only thing I don't like about it is that the slot for the camera seems off.

Here is the link to the site.

http://power-skin.com/battery-cases/ap1513rubt/htc-amaze-powerskin.html

PowerSkin Review

I was lucky enough to get two of these for free for me & my wife. They were listed for $0.00 on T-Mobile.com and I just had to pay around $6 shipping. T-Mobile has changed the price since then but I think they are still worth looking at as a solution for the short battery life. They keep the phone going through the day and provide some protection as well. However, there are a few things I would like to point out:

1. The USB charging port is for charging only, it does not transmit data. You will have to remove you phone from the case to connect it to a PC.

2. The cut out on the case back lines up right next to the camera flash. It will make your photos and video washed out on one side from overexposure due to the flash reflecting off the case.

3. It is a little bulky, making the phone about twice as thick. The back is curved, it has a soft rubber feel and it fits in your hand nicely.

Overall, the PowerSkin is a good product; but considering the cost, I would expect the USB port to handle data transfer as well as an improved design that does not interfere with the camera flash.
[HTC Amaze 4G] alexp162002:
I both confirm and agree with your points. I actually had to remove the case to take decent flash pictures the other day, and it's annoying that the port does not transfer data, although for most things I just use a wifi file sharing program so no biggie...
[HTC Amaze 4G] fzsrv:
i picked up the Xpal Powerskin today at a T-Mo store today. Got 30% off by showing them a picture on my phone of a coupon found on TMoNews.com.

I like the case! It does add some weight and bulk to the phone but I'm ok with that since I have large hands. I feel more secure holding phone now.

The case has a soft silicone shell and easily slips over the phone. What is described as a tumour on the side is not that big. Yes it is a nuisance but not as bad as has been described.

The big downside, which has been already mentioned is the cutout for the camera. The edge is close to the flash so when you take a picture it affects the output of the flash. In the picture I've attached you can see the shadow it creates along the right side. Bad if you use the flash, no problem without the flash.

I will try to get more photos of the powerskin actually on the phone in the next day or so.

PEACE

Mark M
