Hello

Okay so few days ago I rooted my Huawei Sonic U8650, installed Recovery ClockMod and ZaD!!RoM v1.5 ROM, everything is good, except the fact that Power Control thingy is gone from my Notification bar, however he appears in Widgets as "ToolBox Rewrite" widget. And I cannot use mobile networks anymore (which is very important for me) Is there any way to fix this? Sory, im noob at this.. :D
[General Questions and Answers] Menthex8:
Fixed my mobile network, left only that power control in notification bar..
[General Questions and Answers] Menthex8:
Bump..........?
[General Questions and Answers] Berengodo:
Were you able to recover the HDSPA service? Please share, I'm having the same issues here with IDEOS X3
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Stopa:
Hi.. Did Someone know if there will be a new update of 2.3 rom for u8800, or recent one B522 is the last one :/ ??
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] joao pestana:
The actual rom has several bugs... so in my opinion Huawei should release a new version with some bugs corrected, like Amtel Screen, missed calls, wi-fi reboot, etc

I think we must continue to demand that in facebook ( facebook.com/huaweidevice ) I'm very disapointed with Huawei...If we don't say anything i don't believe they will do something.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] PaulMilbank:
They say they are working on it and they seem to be ignoring the angry facebook messages now. No idea if/when it is going to happen.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ghott:
B522 is sucks. they have to create new one or fix it. I don't think that was the final one.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Ozgurce:
Actually if someone make a good text we can flood their facebook page eventually they need to answer.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] boss_y:
I think we will have to wait a little because Huawei devs are celebrating new year for quite a while. :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] jayGGjay:
Ok tx for the info,

Could you please specify wich version of wich kernel you have tried

and

for battery there is so many things that can made you battery level vary (signal strenght of WIFI/GSM .... for ex.) that the test you made "only" count for battery usage in intensive "static" computation (so no real life usage) but still nice to know.

And also if you had any OC/UV apply or at wich OC/UV settings for each reported by SetCpu or else
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] loryb84:
I tried the latest version of the kernel:

abyssnote: 3.5c

Speedmod: k1-3

cfroot: 5.0

Fm: v 2.0

I did battery tests in the same condition: airplane mode with no connections.

All the tests done without overclock and uv..just used the kernels as they are.

I'd like to do real life battery tests too like wifi browsing and gps tracking..i'll try soon..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] jayGGjay:
Ok tx for the specific infos.

Could you also specify wich governor your where using.

And maybe Update 1st post with all infos and version
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] VTEChump:
Interesting, I did two battery tests between CF-root and FM kernels, and found CF-root drained about 2% more per hour for my typical use. Lots of variables here though, just thought I would share.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] PurpleMelbourne:
This information is very helpful. It would be even better if you could repeat tests to compare governors. So clarrify which governors were used in those first tests. And also the other kernels tested also with the same governors where they are also present.

Awesome work :-)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] loryb84:
I'm slowly doing other tests when I have free time..

Now I'm testing gps tracking usage.

Using oruxmaps,screen always on at min. brightness,gps recording every second,phone on the desk.

I compared cf root kernel and speed kernel.

Results:

CFroot ---> 6% battery drain in 30 minutes of recording

SpeedKernel ---> 6% battery drain in 45 minutes of recording (at 30 minutes 4%)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] loryb84:
added web browsing test result
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] VTEChump:
Awesome thread, subscribed. SpeedMod Kernel looking like a winner for battery life.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] two_handed:
i really do appreciate your work! now i've got a reason to switch kernel again.

Thanks!

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] awesome-member:
How many runs of test or is it all tested once? (except quadrant)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] spirit.of.resistance:
grea work,thanks..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] loryb84:
4 times and taken the best result..

added results using abysskernel and new benchmarks: realPi (best result of 5 runs) and CF bench (best result of 3 runs)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] loryb84:
Added results for FM kernel.

I was also trying Opera browser..and I compared it with stock browser about battery life and using FM kernel.

Stock browser---> 10 % of battery in 31 minutes of browsing

Opera browser----> 7 % of battery in 30 minutes

It seems Opera browser is draining the battery less than stock browser..I'm curious to try Opera with speed kernel.

Then I'll take some tests changing cpu governor..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] EarlZ:
I found that FM kernel is draining my batter dramatically faster than CF-Root.. I dont have hard data to prove that but just purely based on my observation and blind testing
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] loryb84:
I've tried Fm kernel and noticed normal battery drain during tests..but I've not tried when the phone is in idle. Did you notice more battery drain when you're using the phone or when it is in idle?

Anyway I also tested boot time of different kernel..AbyssKernel and SpeedKernel are the fastest.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] OrangGeeGee:
So great that you're doing this, nice comparisons.

BTW, what CPU governors were you using with the kernels you mentioned? Maybe try a couple of different ones to see if it has an impact on the results.

Also, more like a general question: is battery level percentage consistent through different battery levels? Because I have noticed several times on different phones that the last 10 or so percent last longer. From-to what charging point do you do these tests?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] EarlZ:
Idle, heavy usage and movie viewing.. FM kernel gave me lesser battery. Or it must be my phone.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] loryb84:
thank you..

About the battery..I considered it,so all the tests always started from 95% of battery charge and tried to run long tests to have more accurate results.

And all the governors were setted up OnDemand.

I'll try the effects of changing governor

I also used jbodkernel cleaning scpript before flashing a new kernel.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] OrangGeeGee:
Okay, thanks for the info

To put this even a step further:

what would be the best way to measure the drain on idle using different kernels?

I guess airplane mode with all syncing off on a clean ROM (like Cassie's XtraLight) and then measuring battery drain. In the deep sleep state, does the kernel have any impact on the battery? Or is the winner the one that deep sleeps the most?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] loryb84:
I think your method would be ok but it's a long test if you want accurate results..I haven't done it yet but I think results would be similar for each kernel.

More deep sleep causes less cpu usage and of course less battery drain.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] kanwal.diku:
amazing info man... was very doubtful of the abyss kernel since started using it.. but now i am fine knowing that it really drains the same battery as i sgiven in your tests
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] orificium:
I'm running stock GT-N7000 (Made in China). UBKK2.

In Quadrant - I mostly get around 3300-3600. But I've seen as high as 4416.

Why is the FPS information clipped at the bottom of the screen in Quadrant?

In Antutu - I got a 6508 total score.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] SpecialStar:
Nice test dude ;)

I have just the 3.6 AbyssKernel and reach the most points in Quadrant and Antutu :)

There's just one question in my mind:

How do the AbyssKernel reach MORE points even if the SpeedKernel is mostly faster than AbyssKernel?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Nelthalin:
Good info here! Thanks for sharing :)

SpeedKernel is efficient but also the slower in most tests (compared to abyssnote)

I'm currently running 3.7 it runs well so far. But i was already wondering how it would do vs other kernels :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] sharkonland:
WOW. Extremely useful thread, cant believe i didnt find it earlier, would have saved me a lot of time and headache. Here's my take on the kernels based on my own observations :

CF-root: Very responsive and smooth, Very good battery life

FM 2.0: Very fast, almost very good battery life,

Abyss3.4-3.5: Super fast but not the smoothest. Good battery life

Speedmod: Fast and good battery life.

Overall for me after using all the good kernels out there, CF-root is the best. Exceptional battery life and super smooth. Also highly reliable. FM for me is #2 then speed and abyss.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] zax2003:
Hi guys. Im on Darky 3.1, with Speedmod K1-5. I have 3 days of battery life and still 10% of battery on moderate use.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] VTEChump:
What is your overall display time on?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] zax2003:
it was 3h 10min
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] rockky:
Itd be nice to have a spreadsheet, have as a sticky, and update data as new kernels are released.

NOW....for a governor spreadsheet!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] loryb84:
thank you..I really don't know the answer.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] loryb84:
thank you for appreciating the tests.

now I'm testing the new franco kernel.i've just added some results,all the other results soon.

And later when I'll have enough free time I'll take governor tests too
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] pjm77:
The answer is very simple. SpeedKernel is not faster than AbyssKernel.
[HTC Sensation] Luzifel:
Hi there,

i`ve got a problem with my HTC Sensation after trying to flash a new Radio to install ICS.

I have thought i´ve already been SuperCID, but this was false...

The recovery tried to flash the new radio, updated some parts of the software, but a failure occured and the updated failed because of the CID.

Since this update i cant boot into android.

There is the first Splashscreen, then a second the bootscreen, and then the splash screen...

I´ve already tried to restore my backup

Cleared Cache

Factory Reset

Dalvik cleared

etc

i´m very hopefull you guys could help me.
[HTC Sensation] CursedBat:
Alright, firstly Hellow :)

Ofcourse when I read your problem, I deem that the "radio" you were mentioning is actually "Firmware"

If so, you seem to be having a similar issue which was solved in this thread. Nevertheless. Here's a way to fix it.

What I am about to guide you through is downgrading your HBoot.

Firstly, download 1.17RUU - CHOOSE WHICH Service Provider, Location (CHOOSE THE RIGHT ONE)

http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1459767

1. Boot into recovery mode and connect your phone to your computer.

2. Select "mounts and storage"

3. Then select mount sd card.

4. Copy the PG58IMG.zip into the Root of your SD Card.

5. Reboot your phone into bootloader again.

Your phone should automatically prompt you to begin update. After the update,

Your Bootloader should be downgraded. Then Flash a simple - any Gingerbread based ROM, and follow my post on doing SuperCID

THEN,

1. Please follow step 4 from this Guide to obtain SuperCID, make sure that the SuperCID is 11111111! Mismatch of the SUPERCID causes the Error you were previously facing.

2. With the updated SuperCID, reinstall the latest ROM you wanted.

3. Boot & flash the suggested radio if you are using a ICS ROM.

Hope it helped!

:)
[HTC Sensation] Luzifel:
Hi,

thank you.

Alright the steps for writing the CID are enough. Now it works again. :-)

After writing my cid i could flash the radio and the ICS ROM.

It was a bit tricky to get adb to recognize my phone.

My phone seems to be turned of, but windows and adb said its on?

From this moment i was able to write the CID.

Thank you.
[HTC Sensation] CursedBat:
So I take it that the problem is solved and you are able to run your device normally? :)

I realised that I forget to include the link for the guide LOL.
[HTC Sensation] Luzifel:
Yes right, i have just flashed a new ROM, its booted and runs well.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] sbasil:
Is it just u8800's drivers that make its 2D performance 'sluggish' compared to Desire Z (they both have pretty much the same HW and both oc'd @ 1,5GHz (same Miui 2.1.20 2.3.5, same ondemand governor).

Just wondering 'cause you can see the difference IRL (Desire Z's browser has a lot smoother scrolling and the 2D seems snappier otherwise too).
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] yannn007:
Becuase ROM probably doesnt have the new GPU drivers ;) This one is with CM7 which has them http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=21616241&postcount=292

Nice. Which version of CM was that? Hopefully we'll get the updated driver to Miui soon. :-)

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amithiel:
Hey guys, i used to flash with odin, but those times are now gone. moved to linux for real, so i installed heimdall (and heimdall-frontend).

Honestly it seems that command line is easier to understand. My question is: how do i flash only the bootloader?

I need to use the jig, so i need the old bootloader. i already have the TAR.

to execute a normal rom installation, it seems these are the commands:

But how about flashing just the bootloader?

Also, i didn't install any samsung drivers...is that possible on ubuntu?

This is linuxmint, but anyway, is ubuntu based. thanks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amithiel:
Well, nevermind guys... i'm going to flash it on a friend's computer. However i would like to learn some more about heimdall. the videos i see on youtube, and on google, are from an early version. as the interface changed, i'm kinda lost now.

appreciate any tips. ty
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chingser:
If you just type "heimdall" in Terminal, then there will be a list of possible arguments you can use.

As far as i know you just have to type:

I never flashed only a bootloader, so i don't know if there will be any compatibility problems. But command should work.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adam1422:
Can you remove this on your own from any ROM? I am running Synergy and am wondering if there is anything I can do to remove? Any help would be much appreciated!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MДЯCЦSДИT:
synergy probably removed it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adam1422:
First off Carrier IQ and HTC loggers are NOT pulled from Synergy RLS1!

When I use the "Logging Checker by TrevE" it stated that everything was removed:

CIQ not found - removed with app

No usage logs found - removed with app

but it still finds loggers:

data/data/com.android.htcprofile

anr_history.txt

If I delete the directory and reboot it just creates a new directory and txt file. How do I get rid of this? Should I even be worried about this?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Diablo67:
One option for removing Carrier IQ on Android is to flash a custom ROM,with this option. Most will have removed Carrier IQ.

Another option is to get this app. It will tell you if Carrier IQ is on your device.

If it tells you that Carrier IQ is there, then the easiest way is to buy the premium version of the app from the Market. It costs $1, but the developer is legit (he’s actually the one who discovered Carrier IQ’s SMS keylogging).

I recommend searching for your specific device, as some phones haven’t been playing nicely with the removal app. If it doesn’t look good, then I'd recommend flashing a custom ROM instead.

That i'm not sure of,you would have to ask the developer or someone here.I'm sure someone will come along soon and help you.

I am running stock Verizon Galaxy Nexus. I use Automateit Pro to put the phone in Airplane mode and shut off Wifi at night.

I am looking to toggle Data Sync off as well. Is that even necessary? I'm thinking it is, because some nights I lose 20% battery in 6 hours. I am wondering if the phone is trying to refresh data even though there is no connection.

I have not found a Data Sync toggle widget. Does anybody know of one?

Guys, Do you agree that Google shouldn't let Samsung to be maker of the next nexus?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MarcoWPY:
I just think Samsung ****e...Especially it's marketing in Hong Kong. (It may differ in other parts of this planet)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] spencer88:
If Samsung would get the radios straightened out the phone would be almost perfect IMO.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] s.m.knipe:
I'm happy with their build quality (overall), but I do wish they would use a better GPS chip (my GPS is fine, but not to the level of accuracy/polling frequency that my HTC and Motorola phones have had) and tougher glass on the screen. Those are really my only two complaints...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Most of my phones have been GG. They have almost all scratched, despite me being careful.

As for GPS, folks are quick to forget problems HTC has had in the past with GPS. The Thunderbolt had garbage GPS for a long time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KidCuda:
Give it a battery like the Razr MAXX and I'd be a very happy camper. That and make it better to hold...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Geezer Squid:
No I do not agree. That said, I'm still going to buy it without regard to builder. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gabster21:
Samsung has proven that it can build phones with amazing hardware, take the SGS2 for example (top notch camera, GPU, screen), they only dumbed down the Nexus because they were following Google's specs. On my SGN radios work perfectly and battery life is amazing, build quality and design are great.. GPS locks almost instantly.

Samsung all the way for the next Nexus!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Evangelion01:
No, I don't agree. Samsung makes the best hardware in terms of specification and power. They even have better design than HTC, whose phones are all genuinely identical. Motorola makes very good hardware too, but their designs are hit and miss. The GPS on my Nexus has been fantastic, getting locks within literally five seconds.

When I had my Omnia HD, I always lamented the fact that I had the best piece of hardware on the market but with Samsung crippling the software support. The Samsung Nexus devices have fixed this.

Make the next Nexus a slab of 100% display with less than 0.5mm bezel (using that new earpiece technology so that there's no need for an earpiece speaker at the top) and I'll certainly be in line to buy the Nexus once again at the end of this year. Oh, and design the back of the device so it looks a bit more... premium. The Galaxy Nexus' back looks too cheap for my liking.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] opensourcefan:
Of all the devices I've had lately this has been the best one so far defect wise....knocking on wood. The latest HTC devices all had major issues, as did my first razr. I'm quite happy so far.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jerrygooch:
I'd like to see Google switch out manufacturers every year(I thought that was the original plan).. But in all honesty Samsung is a great company and if the next Nexus is manufactured by them then I will still be happy. Hell, I don't even have a Galaxy Nexus (stupid AT&T) I'd kill to get one.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AndyFox2011:
How about back to HTC since they have awesome phone designs?!

Or Motorola since Google owns it!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
LOL @ HTC and awesome phone designs in the same sentence.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AllGamer:
it doesn't work like you think

Each manufacturer have to submit a Bit (model design + cost & price to produce)

then Google chooses the one the like the most

whom ever wins the bit, gets to make the next Nexus phone

that means both Motorola and HTC lost the challenge of the last 2 incarnations of Nexus phones

it'll be interesting to see SonyEricsson, Acer, Asus, LG & Huawei run into the competition as well
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] big samm:
Google is buying Motorola, so who knows maybe Motorola will make the next Gnex

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ExMM:
I've never liked Samsung quality overall, I rather that HTC will handle the next Nexus phone, like it used to be for the Nexus One.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AllGamer:
they already own Motorola Mobile division, but Google said even them have to bit for the Nexus

Motorola Mobile will still run independently off Google
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JRK-Scope:
I'd like to see Sony make it actually. Awesome design, great build quality overall and they seem to have patched up their software issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hotleadsingerguy:
^This^

The *only* reason I'd say I wish Motorola designed it is the Radios. The CDMA version gets pretty lackluster radio performance. Standing right next to a RAZR and Rezound the other night I was fluctuating between 1 bar and no service and they both had 4 bars (all 3 on CDMA-only). Bars might not mean anything, but my signal strength, at least half the time, was completely dry. I had no data connection at all, while they both had fantastic connections.

That kind of crap is purely unacceptable for the "Flagship" phone from Google. How did this kind of thing ever make it past pre-production without someone noticing the problem and correcting it? Use a higher-quality radio.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sahakiap:
i dont agree at all. seems like the majority of posters on here just like to complain. my nexus has been great. i am on my original one. my radios dont drop, my screen is great, happy with the battery life and my gps is the fastest i have ever seen on a phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Killasmoke:
I don't agree I like super amoled screens & there hardware is great Google should of put the exynos CPU or TI omap 4470 not the 4460 they went with but whatever the phone is great & I don't have one just waiting on sprint I hope sprints version is a little better CPU 1.5 & throw in the TI omap 4470 with a better gpu
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EddyOS:
HTC still make the best looking phones, bar none! They feel weighty, well built, comfortable in the hand. The Nexus is the best Samsung have made to date but it still doesn't 'feel' expensive. Moto are a joke, horrid UI IMO...same with Sony

I'd like to see Google design something itself and then commission a company to build it. That's be far more interesting
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rubiconjp:
My GN functions perfectly... GPS locks fast, at least when compared to my old Captivate. However would like to see Moto and Sony next up on the plate!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sluflyer06:
I don't and have never had any complaints with my Nexus so I'm pretty happy with Samsung. I think the build quality is just fine as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lowandbehold:
So Motorola and Sony is a joke because of their UI, but what does the UI have to do with a Nexus? You should know that the name Nexus means no manufacturer UI....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonnyg1097:
I think that they have an excellent build quality but they just need to work harder on getting the updates out sooner.
