[HD7 General] Foxnov1990:
Good evening,

This is not just another "QQ my battery is bad" topic but I have searched without proper succes for my question so here goes.

Yes my battery sucks ever since I updated it to Mango.

Now people are suggesting to do all kinds of things like turning off the auto email receiving option every time one comes in and turning off Wifi etc..

Tried this without succes.

Then I see people suggesting a Hard Reset of the device, so I decided to go for that option (used the one where you press up - down + power on)

BUT my question now is, what to do after to improve your battery (like people suggested) cause you're left with 2 options.

- Restoring a previous backup from Zune

- Updating and installing every single thing over again (and with that configuring as well)

If you guys have tried either of these or know which is the best option (and please not just answers like "option B looks more plausible, thats the best!") please do share!

Cause honestly, unplugging for school at 7AM and dead battery at 6PM, and having opened apps for like an hour max (+ 1h music/zune) is just silly (dont even have Wifi / auto email sync / apps in background (except HTC hub) on)

Thanks in advance!
[HD7 General] mezo9090:
well i had the same problem too, i full charged my phone and when i removed it to look at the estimated time remaining it was 4 hours ..

so what i did was :

- go to settings --> background tasks --> advanced

check if one of the running application you recently installed .. i started uninstalling one by one .. every time i uninstall one of them i turn screen of wait 10 sec and open it again and look at the estimated time i found 1-2 hours increase .. keep doing it till you find which application consumes a lot of battery ( i think its due to bad code or something )

i hope it helps :)
[HD7 General] Foxnov1990:
Well it helps a bit :) gonna have to try that out unless someone comes up with a better solution for the time being.

So basically what you're saying is that its better to reset and let it update / install apps again and see if that helps (seeing I had 2 options after my reset rly; took the restore for the moment)

Although what I didnt really get is why to open background tasks, cause there is nothing but HTC HUB on in there, the rest is either off or just not in there as it doesnt support those tasks I assume.

Anyway thanks for that, hope more people have advice like that!

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] switch81:
Hey all, I just picked up the refurb Nook Color from Ebay during black friday and laoded CM7 onto a SanDisk 32gb Class 4 card.

So for everything rocks! I've started loading photos/videos/music/apps on the device and it's handling everything very well. I also overclocked the maximum clock rate to 1.2 ghz using cyanogenmod's performance modifications.

I'm curious to see if there are any other easy to do performance mods available so I can get the most out of the device? I know it's a single core processor, so it's going to have its limitations - however most other tablets seem to run a bit smoother for things like swiping around different home screens, scrolling in the app launcher, etc.

Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks!

[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
This is the latest Sprint OTA Visual Voicemail that is flashable via recovery on AOSP roms for root users only. This will work if you do not want to use Google Voice or YouMail for your voicemails. I have tested it on CyanogenMod Nightly #255 and it works great for me.

There is one thing that you need to do after flashing the updated.zip, or if you already have another version of Visual Voicemail installed just install the lastest vnotes app from your sdcard using the file manager of your choice, (apparently does not work if you push vnotes to /system/app with adb or flashing it in a zip in recovery)

All of these apps are pulled from my own RUU rom that is modded for root users.

I will continue to update these as new updates arrive.

Enjoy!
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] kendotelie:
Sparkso, VVM has been updated to 5.2....heres the apk...i was sure i had updated my own post with this, but here it is, you can push it to your zip if you like

theres now an option to move vm to the sd card
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] kendotelie:
The only way that I could get it working was by using TB to restore the new v. from my sense nand. Maybe you can get it working thru the zip?
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
I just updated my VVM through my stock RUU rom last night but maybe it needs to be updated again. I pulled the latest vnotes and voicemail app unless I pulled the wrong VVM.apk if there was another one on data partition that I didn't notice. I restore and check it out though and report back.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
ok so I pulled vnotes.apk from the zip and posted it as a separate attachment and redid the .zip to flash the visual voicemail app. However if you already have a older version just install the newest vnotes.apk from the sdcard using a file manager.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] kendotelie:
yea, i recall having to take a mandatory update of the vvm after loading a stock 2.2, but i loaded SS a few days back and there was OTA for vvm for 5.2...glad theres a zip version installation now. thanks

[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
More than likely this not working on android 4 is because this is a system app. Once htc and sprint make a update for the evo or this phone we'll be able to use newer versions of the app that will work and be compatible on android 4.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] cowlag:
Sprint Voicemail update doesn't work...

I am using [ROM] Synergy [RLS1] [8/5/11] (NON-GODMODE)

can I flash this zip to get my Voicemail v5_2_0_24 working? or is there another zip for that? please let me know ASAP otherwise I hear the only other option is to revert back to my stock rom then update, backup with TB and restore to Synergy....
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] YoungCorruptionV2.0:
if you really need to know that bad. Make a backup first then flash and see if it works. If it doesn't, well you got a backup to go to
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
I don't run Synergy rom personaly...I just posted this thread for for aosp roms (not sense) because "most" sense roms already include visual voicemail...But your more then welcome to try it out and let us know.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] cowlag:
Hm... no luck so far I have tried everything .... the New VM works fine on Sprint lovers so i try backing up with TB and restoring using Synergy but still no luck... must be something with synergy I even tried the APK and ZIP on here and nothing... I have posted my findings on Synergy's forum maybe someone else will give it a shot, I've spent 2 days straight trying but oh well... I will stick to the older 5.1 version till someone knows how. Thanks.

Also thanks for the quick reply :)
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
First off I noticed your posting on the Evo 4G forums Synergy...This is the Evo Shift 4G which is a completely different phone. If you have a Evo Shift then post on the Synergy thread in this forum and not Evo 4G...If you don't have a Evo Shift you probably shouldn't be posting here lol.

Next time read before flashing. You clearly didn't follow the installation instructions for Hellraiser properly, and if you weren't using Hellraiser, then this is a lesson in why you don't flash ROMs for another device.

These are classic symptoms of what happens when flashing an I9100 ROM onto the I777 without any form of porting package.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] PatriotXT92:
+1. If you flash the hellraiser package found in the development section right after, most i9100 roms will work happily and not have the problems described.

Use temp root method, and then remove them.

They will come back after a reboot though.

anyone know where this is? Im new to samsung. Is our in system/media/bootanimation.zip? or do we have to flash a partition in Odin or something? I havent check as of yet, I guess I could unzip it to find out. Thanks guys, I imagine an ICS bootanimation would look fairly sweet on this thing.

samsung theme designeris for bada OS only.. shoot.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] kzoodroid:
From what little I've been able to find, mostly in the galaxy tab forum, the bootanimation.zip format isn't supported on stock ROMs. So not sure how we'd go about modding it. I found one set of instructions for doing it on samsung devices but it was in broken english so I don't trust it to try and I couldn't find all the referenced files.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] chrisrotolo:
ah No, there is no bootanimation in /systememedia is is samsungs .qmg files for startup and shutdown animation, as well as battery charging animations. These are like samsung specific software image formats .qmg if im not mistaken, but others have managed to edit them on other devices. I'll have a look.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] garyd9:
Some educated guesses:

/system/bin/samsungani is an executable that appears to be responsible for the animation.

That executable contains strings pointing to /system/media/bootsamsung.qmg and /system/media/bootsamsungloop.qmg.
