[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ericcarboni:
So everyday when I get to school I put my phone into airplane mode. No WiFi or data.

I've seen all the other battery threads so I ran Better Battery Stats to see what app/process was keeping it awake.

It says that Wifi has been running and keeping it awake the entire time. I didn't even have it turned on (as seen in first picture).

I've been watching this for a few days now, and it has been a consistent problem. Am I reading Better Battery Stats correctly?

EDIT: No custom ROM, not even rooted. All stock

Thanks

I've read somewhere that there is a bug that makes android system run crazy. You could fix this by:

-turning off your wifi

- wait for a bit

-turn on your wifi

-continue on

It's a simple fix but it works

One of my best friends have an HD7 as me and I was asking if it's possible to backup an app using TouchXperience and restore it into the other phone so he can have the level I have in my games, etc.. I can try it, but when I try to make a backup, TouchXperience can't make the backup.. If someone could attach some backup of Need for Speed Undercover, Angry Birds or MiniSquadron for example so I can restore in my phone like it was my backup and in that way we may be able to "hack" games..
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] GoodDayToDie:
Sooooo a few things you should know here.

1: Not sure whether or not it's technically against the XDA rules, but I'm not going to help you get your Xbox Live account banned (importing somebody else's game progress, and yes they can tell if you get an achievement you shouldn't have yet).

2: TouchXperience (at least the Mango version) can't read very much of the file system at all; it's a sandboxed app (doesn't even use ID_CAP_INTEROPSERVICES). While I technically have an app data backup tool that could be used to do what you suggest, concern over people misusing it exactly like you suggest is one of the reasons it's not published yet (the other being that currently it's quite hard to get it working since the driver it uses for filesystem access is crippled on most phones).
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] lauticol:
Well, the thing I try to do its allowed in XDA since its not warez or violating copyrights.

I should tell you Marketplace is not available in my country so I don't buy games just because I can't and the ones I have are cracked to work without achievements.. So no problems with my Xbox Live account..

2. That program you talk about its interesting because it can also help when you change ROM and dont want to lose all your apps and games data, just backup and restore after flash.. So it would be nice to have it as a good backup tool..

There are no instructions on YouTube YET on how to take apart the new Samsung Galaxy SII T989... Is anyone aware of a link showing how to do that? Or, if someone has done it already, can he/she post the pictures/movie on this forum?

Thank you in advance!

Hey there XDA,

Not sure if this is the best place to post this but here goes.

I am a long time lurker of the site and I registered a domain for later use. I have 20gb/month of bandwidth and I wont really be using it. Might as well "donate" it to the community. If anyone wanted me to host mirrors for their roms I would gladly do it. If you are Interested send me a PM and I will help you out :)

I need an app that support exchange email and can be used with GDX v22.

The one that can be downloaded on GDX thread makes me some problems while flashing.

it bricks phone an need to reflash kernel after that for some reason.

which FREE app supports activesync?

is there a way to use Roadsync that I payed with phone with custom ROMs?

Where can I find the app included in most of ROMs here, but maybe newer? and if possible in .apk format, not for recovery.

Any of three options would work for me

Thank you very much!
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Just download the Email.apk which was formerly included in older versions of GingerDX.

To "install" the file you have to options ...

1. Copy the file onto your SD card and move it into /system/app (use Root Explorer or Root Browser for this task) - don't forget to restore permissions!

User: R W x

Group: R x x

Other: R x x

(644 in its numerical value)

Open the Terminal, type 'su', confirm Superuser's request and then type 'chmod 644 /system/app/Email.apk

Reboot!

2. Enable USB-Debugging and make sure you have adb installed. Connect the phone by USB to your computer or via WiFi to your LAN.

Open a command prompt (Windows) or terminal (Linux) and type

- USB Connection:

adb connect

adb push C:\Users\<yourusername>\Downloads\Email.apk /system/app

adb kill-server

- WiFi Connection:

adb connect <ip address of your phone>

adb push C:\Users\<yourusername>\Downloads\Email.apk /system/app

adb kill-server

*Note: In Linux you type ~/Downloads/Email.apk instead of C:\Users\...

Reboot the phone!
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kulen:
Thank you for the answer!

I will try this another time. now, I found out another way that didn't cause brick.

couldn't wait for the answer :-)

I realised that I backed up all apps (system and user), including email.apk, with Titanium backup. So I restored email.apk in new ROM. and it's working.

Just couldn't restore data also, but that doesn't matter

And just wondering, cause I haven't got a clue about Linux, why do I have to set rights with root explorer, and not with adb ?

and what does kill-server do?
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Yea, that's also a way to resolve the problem by pulling the Email.apk back out of a Titanium Backup.

You can set the permissions by any way you like ...

- Through a File Manager (capable of getting super user rights granted).

- Through the terminal right there on your phone.

- Through adb shell and issuing the correct command.

- Though SSH command line access (in case you have QuickSSHd or SSHDroid installed)

You don't need to fix permissions when you adb push a file into /system/app as that was already taken care of.

"adb kill-server" means that the adb daemon on your computer will be shut-down again.

So I have been checking my battery usage over the last few weeks, and under Cell Standby tab my "time without signal" is always 100% . Im not sure if this is draing the battery or if its just a typo/bug, but should I be alarmed? Is there anyway I can fix it? I am on Rocket v18 right now with Abyss 3.1 kernel but this problem is spread across all custom roms I have run. Any help?

1. You are reviewing an already discontinued phone

2. Images on top are low quality

3. G2x uses IPS panel, not regular TFT-LCD
[T-Mobile LG G2x] loganmc10:
4. The text is

extremely

hard to read, you need

paragraphs

. It's one giant hunk of text, not many people will read through all that.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JPease:
I wasn't aware the phone was discontinued. I had heard this but was read somewhere else that it was not discontinued.

I agree the quality of the images are low. I'm trying to find better ones.

Thank you for your input.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JPease:
On the text being hard to read are you referring to the size color? And yes I agree about the needing paragraphs I was on a time limit so I'm currently working on it. Thank you for the constructive criticism. That's what I'm looking for
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
you might want to get the p999 images, if you are gonna advertise it as the g2x you have the p990 with the LG launcher.

I just skimmed through it so my feedback might not be the best... From what I read it doesn't seem to be all 100% accurate as I got the phone in April and have only had maybe 4 reboots total (not including serious overclocking) and those were with custom rom/kernels.

When the phone was stock I actually didn't have any reboots, but did have mediocre battery life: music, facebook, texting, XDA, 10 minutes of games, and about 20 minutes on the phone would get me 10 hours. Now that the phone is rooted and running custom roms that have fixed the issues, no bloat, and very modified kernels I get 18-20 hours and haven't had a reboot while on a rom that was dependable and not being built up.

Not all G2X's have the issues you have or tested or just read about. Some work very well, and overall I love my phone never been happier with a cell phone, as for LG not too happy with haha.

Hope you're blog goes well. Might want to get a HD camera, most blogs don't make it very far without a vlog entry these days.

[Galaxy S II General] Filiprino:
Hi,

I don't know if someone else found this problem. I made a video:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=RS9j4uiTDaE. It's also in FullHD.

And wrote a post in my blog in my native language, spanish: http://retreteinformatico.blogspot.com/2012/01/touchwiz-40-y-problemas-con-la.html

The video description is english. I'll also explain the problem here:

Simply put, TouchWiz does not save the icons in the place where I leave them. At first I organized all of them in two screens: one with folders and the other with most frequently used icons. After doing a power on-off cycle the icons are all scattered without alphabetical order in three screens instead of two. The folders maintain their ordering and screen. An icon (AllShare) is put between two folders and the other icons are divided in two screens, disordered, not alphabetical.

In the video you'll see first what I found after the icon position screwing. Then I get three or four apps out of their folder (Google Talk, Gmail, Maps, Market) and put them with the rest of the icons and the AllShare app is put with the rest, out of the screen with the folders. Then I power off the phone and turn it on again to find that GTalk, Maps, Market and AllShare are out of their place.

After that, I put the icons more or less where I want to put them (in two screens) and I do again a power cycle to show how did TouchWiz screw my icon organization.

I'm using Android 2.3.4 XWIK4 with baseband XXKI1.

[YOUTUBE]RS9j4uiTDaE[/YOUTUBE]​
[Galaxy S II General] Filiprino:
If someone is able to reproduce the problem just tell it. Maybe touchwizh has problems if you put in folders the Samsung apps (Hubs and more), I don't know, but it's a big problem.
[Galaxy S II General] Elythor:
Folder/Icon rearrangement is a known problem with TouchWiz since day 1 when SGS2 got released.

Best way to get around is to use AppSorter and sort your App Drawer everytime you create a folder.
[Galaxy S II General] :
Posting problems about 2.3.4 when everyone else is on 2.3.6 = VERY SERIOUS BUSINESS!

Update your phone and test it and give feedback!
[Galaxy S II General] Filiprino:
Hmmm, I didn't know. How comes that Samsung hasn't fixed this in 8 monts?

This is ludicrous.
[Galaxy S II General] ForTR:
Beta is bad
[Galaxy S II General] :
Love the name of your blog: informatic toilet (retrete informatico) ahahah :D

Anyway: They suck on fixing bugs.. if we users and devs cant fix'em we are screwed lol
[Galaxy S II General] Filiprino:
Also, why any reviewer spoted this problem? Add to this the Fujitsu camera module problem and you get the idea that QA on Samsung is really poor. Just remember the GPS problem on Samsung Galaxy S1.
[Galaxy S II General] :
I didn't say to update to ICS beta... just update to XWKK5 and he should be alright!

Anyway i tried to do the same he did in my SGS2 and it keeps icons in their folders..

Using checkrom revo v4 :D
[Galaxy S II General] Filiprino:
My icons are kept in their folders. The problem is the icons that are out of their folders. I'm using original Android, no beta nor custom ROMs.
[Galaxy S II General] :
i rooted my phone and installed checkrom revo v4 and don't have that problem! What is weird to me is that i always used folders and that issue never came to me :eek:
[Galaxy S II General] Filiprino:
I read your first post about upgrading to 2.3.6. Well, if I just use the default Samsung support, I'm stuck to 2.3.4, as my phone is Austrian version and Samsung didn't release nothing newer than 2.3.4 for those phones.

So Samsung sucks big as a company and client support.

Of course if I start to root the phone and installing custom ROMs the problem would disappear, but flashing your phone and breaking your warranty is not something the user should do for something that's supposed to work from the beginning. Different thing is if the user wants extra functionality, but this is not the case.

So, all in all, I'll wait until ICS gets released and after that if it doesn't convince me, I'll root and who know if I flash a custom ROM.
[Galaxy S II General] ProtoKun7:
I had that trouble before where one app ended up going to the next page and kept going back there. I think simply restoring the order, going to TwLauncher in the application list and then force stopping should make it remember the order you gave it once you go back.
[Galaxy S II General] Filiprino:
If I force stop TwLauncher the apps are again "out of control" :-/

I'll try to clear the cache although I'm reluctant because I'll need to recreate all folders again :(
[Galaxy S II General] Filiprino:
I have partially solved the problem by clearing the cache of TouchWiz launcher.

Now the SIM service app keeps going back to the same place out of its folder, but I refuse to clear again the cache and organize all my apps. Maybe it's because the SIM service app is something variable. If I kill touchwiz process that app appears inside it's folder (once the cache corruption is solved), but if I turn off the phone and turn on again, the SIM app appears out of the folder.

This is crap.
[Galaxy S II General] Filiprino:
Well, know what? I've installed some applications at one time, all from Samsung Apps, and after rebooting the phone all my folders are empty and the apps inside them are all spread across 6 screens instead the 2 screens I managed to sort. The apps and folders have lost the position I assigned to them.

Now I have a bunch of icons in random order and I don't want to organize again 6x8 = 48 icons plus the home screens which would turn to default state after clearing the cache of the touchwiz manager.

It's very annoying and unusable. I want to throw the phone through the window.

What I can't understand is how this bug has been happening since launch date and Samsung hasn't been able to solve it. My only hope is the ICS update and I don't have much confidence on it. Probably I'll have to flash a custom ROM and then try to get some Samsung software on it.

The free games offer is very good :(

PS: Well, maybe it has some explanation->Samsung's poor software development quality assurance. Camera's firmware also suffer from it.
[Galaxy S II General] zsidane:
With all due respect, and not aiming to sound rood to you, with that mentality (it should work fine out of the box and I don't care if somewhere else there's a newer version...) you shouldn't be posting on XDA because people we'll obviously tell you to upgrade to the latest version, whether it's from a different operator/country (legit) or simply a leak.

You can't expect people here to act like the only way to use the phone is by following what Samsung/your operator is dictating you. We all know and have long ago agreed that operators and manufacturers are lazy when it comes to QA, and that's why a place like XDA exists :)
[Galaxy S II General] Filiprino:
The camera firmware bug affects to all people, doesn't matter if you have stock Android or custom ROM. So we're all in the same bag. And this is Galaxy S II General forum, so I post this here because norms allow it.

Anyways, thanks for your reading.
[Galaxy S II General] adityav95:
Actually clearing the cache helped! Ever since I updated to 2.3.6 I have had this problem but after clearing the cache it has been resolved. But initially after the update the folders did remember for a couple of days after which the problem started for me. But for now clearing the cache worked well.
[Galaxy S II General] dragon135:
Hello, did u guys already tried Menu>Save in app drawer after modifying/rearranging apps/folder?

Sent from my GT-I9100
[Galaxy S II General] xethor:
Again, not to be rude, but, there is no point posting here if you are unwilling to change your firmware as it seems to be the only way to resolve your problem for the time being. I have never experienced this issue in the countless 2.3.6 and 4.0.3 ROMs I have tried. It does not even require root to update to a firmware from another country and you could restore easily without Samsung ever knowing.
[Galaxy S II General] Filiprino:
I don't know why should I upgrade to 2.3.6 if that does not solve my issue, as seen on other posts. The reason to posting here is to make my problem visible on the net, yes, I'm that self-centered.

And of course, I haven't experienced the problem after many installations. But 2 days ago I experienced it. I don't know if it has to do with installing a lot of apps at once, or the problem exists with installing apps from Samsung Apps instead of Android Market or if you install new apps and after that you put them into their respective folders then TouchWiz messes up. However, I know that it does not always occur after installing apps, although I think it happens when new installed apps are being put into a folder. The app I installed before this problem showed up again was Steam and I didn't put it in a folder. Then I installed Dead Space, Need For Speed, Modern Combat 2 and 3 from Samsung Apps and classified into folders and the problem showed up again.

WELLLL apparently thats not true. If you use thier search and just search "Galaxy Nexus Extended Battery" its the first item that shows up. It comes with the battery and the cover for a cool $25.

No idea as to why they hid it like that but if you are still looking to pick it up, thats a good deal

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tao_Man:
I am having a strange problem and wondering if anyone else has had this and any idea on a fix. When I plug my Atrix into the laptop dock once I remove it the next time I reboot the sim card will not be recognized until I reboot again, which means when I reboot I more or less have to reboot twice. Not a major problems as problems go but annoying as heck.

Any ideas or should I just forget about it and take the phone in?
[Vibrant General] meascom:
So, like many other folks here, I'm also trying to find ways to improve my battery life. Overnight, even if phone is fully charged, with 0 usage, the battery drains rapidly, to 20% by early morning. Android System seems to be the one using the most battery (51%). CPU Spy shows only 15% Deep Sleep time. Since I get emails at night, the softkey lights stay lit all night. I'm thinking that's what keeps the phone from going into deep sleep.

Question is - how do I turn off BLN? I understand many people here love the nitification lights, but I honestly don't care much for this feature.

Here's my setup:

Android Version: ICS Passion 10.6

Baseband: T959UVKB5

Kernel: 3.0.15-ICUP ICS-Streamline #1

Build #IML74K

Juice Defender Ultimate

Wifi connectivity at home and work.
[Vibrant General] Decepticaons:
settings-display- uncheck pulse notification light...and yes this will prevent your phone from going into deep sleep!
[Vibrant General] meascom:
Perfect

Thank you!!!
[Vibrant General] Exel:
That's not true.
[Vibrant General] Decepticaons:
It uses power, and when the phone goes into deep sleep the pulse uses enough energy to wake the CPU doesn't it?
[Vibrant General] Woody:
Bet it is the email that is preventing the deep sleep and the BLN is a cursory problem bc of that. ;)
[Vibrant General] sneakysnake16:
now could i do that with my setup? talon kernel on honeycream jw1 2.3.6. i hate the backlight and with it off i could probably get around 3-4 more hours of battery life :)
[Vibrant General] Woody:
Pretty sure backlighting isn't the culprit since it is probably to lightest battery drainer there is. It is what I'd causing the BLN to light up that is draining the battery.
[Vibrant General] sneakysnake16:
well yes but no. For example psx4droid. If you press on the screen the soft keys light up for no reason and stay lit which uses more battery... that's the only reason I want them disabled,that and I don't need to know when I get texts as I check at least every 20 minutes and each texts means a pulse.... not good.
