I found it interesting how it says " Camera 2 = undefined in Android platform, HTC specific value for stereoscopic camera mode (both rear facing cameras)". HTC should give us the source code for these values.
[LG Revolution] MIKEOD5785:
So....long time lurker here....I've tried every rom for the revo, every config setting, every tweak, every update, and so far for speed, battery life etc when running Blitz....the best I can come up with is this:

wipe data/ factory reset in CWM

fresh install:

Gingervolt 1.3

Blitz 2.1

Rom Toolbox Pro.

Toolbox CPU settings: max=1900 min=245 governor=SMOOTHASS

Thats it.

If I go and install scripts....other tweaks....different configurations...they ALL drain the battery faster than that simple setup.

I have the extended battery and I am getting a nice slow drain with decent usage. Blazing fast speed too.

Sometimes LESS IS MORE....and with this phone...after 50 wipes and re-flashes....In my opinion, you will get the best battery life from that config.

I will update this thread with drain % over time...right now I will charge the phone 100% and take it from there.
[LG Revolution] MIKEOD5785:
So...after charging the phone to100%....waited until 3:55pm..then rebooted while plugged in phone untouched until 4:00 pm. I then unplugged the phone and checked battery life exactly at 5:00 ....6:00....and7:00. With ZERO phone use.....the phone....screen off in 4g mode will use exactly 3% every hour on the hour. This is with the settings in the first post.
[LG Revolution] Mig1234:
Thank you very much. Really appreciate it. This works for me too. The Revo has now become very stable, fast, descent battery life. I did it by keeping stock, applying your changes and using Zeam Launcher. Not on Gingervolt.
[LG Revolution] markapowell:
I have been using the scripts for a week now, and I think I agree. I am sure it's my phone being argumentative. I am thinking of downgrading the supercharger back to the gingervolt, because I think that was the most optimal for my phone, and apparently Mike's too.

Thanks for your post.
[LG Revolution] MIKEOD5785:
next test was to fully charge the phone to 100% ...disable 4g....reboot....wait until 9:00pm andunplug. Again with zero phone usage I waited until 10:00pm. The phone only drained the battery 1%. It went from 100% to 99% in one hour in 3g mode with wifi disabled.

so the next test will be 3g mode with wifi enabled and no use.

after that I will try the phone with wifi enabled in 4g mode

i hope we can zero in on maximizing battery life once and for all.
[LG Revolution] MIKEOD5785:
so one thing i must say regardless of the standby tests.....is that i fully expect garbage battery life after overclocking this phone while i am actually using it. overclocking creates heat......and heat is wasted electricity. so its give and take....sure overclocking is great and the phone isblazin fast...but the battery pays the price.

so theres one thing that is a fact of this phone.....it is 100% impossible to overclock the revolution and get better battery life than what we had before overclocking. its never gonna happen. BUT what we can do is figure out the best way to maximize battery life when the screenis off....and hopefully this thread can start us in the right directiono
[LG Revolution] markapowell:
You should not see significant battery drain while using the phone. The idea of over clocking is so that multiple apps can run together without there being any jumping or lag. Your processor should not be running at 1900 when in the phone state. We all know 4g is a battery killer. I don't use 4g. This is a great thread you started.
[LG Revolution] Haro912:
I used my phone as a navigation last night. Plugged into my car charger on the 20 minutes or so ride I lost 2% lol. Oc to 1.9
[LG Revolution] markapowell:
Mine actually charges. I started nav the other day at 81 percent, and ended my drive on 83. I think I was in the car for 30 minutes, maybe 40.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] porfymartinez:
I was reading the instructions about installing the Google Wallet apk and it says if in US just install apk.

I purchased a unlocked GSM GN so basically I would have to root instead of just installing apk, correct? I'm on TMOUS and 4.0.2 also.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jd1001:
I had to use the market enabler outside the us and had to be rooted. I think you should be fine without root since you are in the US, did you try to install the apk?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] porfymartinez:
I'm not rooted and can't do a nandroid. Basically scared ****less of screwing up with no backup after reading this:

So, no, I haven't installed the apk yet.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
If you're in the US with the unlocked version, you should be able to just install the apk. I did it and got no errors or anything.

The only reason why you'd have to root or anything is if you're outside the US where Google Wallet isn't fully supported.

That troubleshooting is because people are regularly flashing ROMs over and over with Google Wallet on all of them, and they're not properly disabling/restoring each time they do so, so the secure element in the phone gets wacked out.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] porfymartinez:
So I have no intent of installing any rooms or rooting for that matter. I would be fine than, right?

Thanks for the clarification, by the way.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mwalt2:

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SJMarty:
I've searched in vain for an answer to this. I'm running the new Virtuous Affinity v2.05.0. I keep my contacts synced with T-Mobile rather than putting them in Gmail. I want to get my contacts synced back to the phone. When I go to add that account (Settings > Accounts & Sync > Add an Account), there is no T-Mobile account type option. Can someone tell me the name of the .APK I need to install to get the T-Mobile account type back? I have a copy of the rooted stock v2.3.4 ROM so I can get any of the included .APKs.

Thanks.

Asked this months ago as most custom roms have it removed...you can flash the rooted stock and let your contacts re sync, then use an app that backs up contacts and then restore them whenever you flash another rom...if you read the thread I linked, there its a way to pull the contacts out of the my tmobile website so you can import them into google. Once your contacts are in google, you won't have to worry about it as long as you own an android phone

If you watch this video, he explains some of the differences and things you can do regarding wifi tethering.

The built in native Sprint hotspot app is the best, and a lot of custom ROM's include the hack for that which allows you to use that app for free. The is also a mod for it for those with a stock/rooted phone I believe.

Unrooted LTE Galaxy Nexus here - thought I was deleting a picture from my gallery, turned out it was a folder. Lost a bunch of videos and pics I would love to get back. Tried a bunch of recovery programs, but they all need a mapped drive letter to work. Google+ backed up some of the pics/and videos but most are not there (also have no idea how to get them back into the phone...) Anyone have any suggestions? I would rather not root, and it this stage its probably too late any way. Thanks!

I dont know how easy data recovery is on flash memory.. For physical disks I have always used Ontrack EasyRecovery Pro. It isnt cheap, but it has restored stuff that I did full pass wipes on.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] grayzman:
Thanks for the response - there are a ton of recovery software out there, that will work great on the flash memory. Unfortunately, as I mentioned, they rely on the attached storage to be mapped as drive in Win 7, and the retarded MTA usb connection doesn't allow that for Galaxy Nexus...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sotoskawasaki:
You can use dd to create an image of the Galaxy Nexus Flash memory (just the sdcard folder), and use that image as input to a recovery program that supports it. There is a very good and powerful one for linux, its name is foremost. I know it might be difficult if you dont use linux but I sure recommend it.

Here is a tutorial on foremost on Ubuntu linux.

EDIT: I dont know if you have to be rooted to use the dd command to create an image.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] grayzman:
Interesting idea, thanks! There are Windows image creating software like Daemon Tools that seems to do same job. I wonder though if the image will carry over the deleted files if they are not seen by the Android OS...

Not a single response over at Rootz after 3-days, so maybe someone here can help...

I have seen this asked quite a few times but have yet to see a reasonable response, so add one more to the list of people wanting to know... How can I backup my email messages and account info prior to loading a new ROM and then restore that info once the new ROM is loaded? I have seen posts and apps designed to backup/restore SMS/MMS, but so far nothing specific regarding email.

I am using a Moto Droid X2 on GB 2.3.3, Rooted and would like to load the Eclipse 2.0.3 ROM which is based on GB 2.3.5. I know how to nandroid backup, I know how to mostly use TiBU (have the free version), but how can I backup my email? I have two POP accounts and one Corporate Exchange Account. The Exchange one I'm not concerned about because when I enter my credentials, it will sync and pull down whatever interval I specify. However, for the POP accounts, I d/l my email to my home PC and when Outlook does that it's set to delete it off the servers. On my phone I have some emails that are no longer on Comcast's and Juno's mail servers. I'd rather not have to re-email myself all of those older saved emails if there is a way to backup & restore them. it was sooooo easy to do that on Blackberry when installing a new Hybrid OS (ROM) but so far it seems to be an unobtainable task in the world of Android. Any suggestions are openly welcome! Thanks.

I'm running CM7 if that is relevant information.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drumist:
Just flash the original CM7 zip back on the phone (no need to wipe anything at all) and it should work OK again. But even before you do that, go ahead and make a backup through recovery so that you can undo any changes just in case.

doktorz rom for installing the Turkish language support
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
OK so you need a ported rom for Turkish.

you should download the rom you need ( it may have a bug where the first call has no audio, this is because its really for a different phone)

then get the gtg ultimate unbrick from the super thread in the development section.

then use Odin to flash the Rogers root kernel. the reboot may take over 5 minutes. if it gets stuck use the unbrick pachage to recover the phone, you will be on 2.2.1 if you do this so the root kernel will be different.

if it goes well and you don't need to unbrick then you will go into recovery ( hold the volume buttons and power till you see "Samsung" in white letters) once in recovery flash zip from sdcard, choose zip, find the rom.zip and flash it.

Do you have a video on the situation in which you bet?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] !!11oneone:
I've been a huge Android fan since I ditched iPhone for N1, and the Galaxy Nexus is by far the best phone I've ever owned.

But there's one niggle about Android that drives me nuts and I can't see any possible UI reason why they do it this way. I hoped ICS would fix it to be more consistent, but it hasn't. It's when an app opens a session of a different app within itself.

For example... take a photo.. hit the thumbnail. It doesn't take you to the Gallery, it takes you to a thumbnail within Camera. Fine, I can understand that as a quick preview.

But now, hit that you want to edit it in, for example, PicSay. Or Tweet it. It will open the editor or twitter app. Except it doesn't. It opens it within the Camera. Want to leave an image to the editor, then go back an take another photo? You can't.

More annoying: tweet or email a web page with a comment. The mail or twitter app is brought up inside the browser. Want to check something on the web page to put into the message? You can't. It's impossible to flick back to the browser and look it up, because the message composition app is 'in front' of it. You're not taken out of the browser to the app you wanted so can't switch between the browser and your message composition.

I can't work out why it's done like this, I find it incredibly annoying. And now with the ICS recent apps list, if you hit home halfway through doing something like this the thumbnail for Browser will actually show Gmail, and it's the Browser and not Gmail you need to flick back to.

Why?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Se7enLC:
Related annoyance. Because each application maintains that "history" (so you can hit back to get all the way out), many apps don't include their own "return to main app" button. You can just hit back, right? Not always.

Take Google Music, for example. Other music apps as well, probably.

Perfectly normal use case:

1). You open it up go to the song listing, pick an album or playlist or song or whatever and start playing.

2). Then you do other things. Email or something, whatever

3). You suddenly decide that want to hear a different song!

4). You go to the notifications tray and click the music icon there (since it's playing music, it's an ongoing app).

5). It opens up the music app to the currently playing song

Music app is open - it should be easy to play a new song, right? Nope. How do you pick a new song? If you had opened the app from a normal music icon, you could hit "back" to go back to the main page - since that progression is saved in the history from when you originally opeend it. But when you clicked it from the notification dropdown, there's no history. When you hit "back", it will just exit back to the Home screen, with the music still playing.

I can't count the number of times I've opened up the music app from the notifications dropdown, hit back, had it exit, and had to re-open music from the normal launcher icon.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] !!11oneone:
Conversely, Twicca (my favourite twitter app) maintains an incredibly detailed 'back' history.

So, hitting back can go Search results > other search results > direct messages > direct messages (because you refreshed) > replies > replies > replies > replies (because the last 4 times you used the app was to check replies) > home
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crachel:
What's funny is Samsung's Music app handles this situation perfectly! The back button has the expected behavior of taking you back to the album/song list from which you came.

Google does not fully understand UI/UX yet. Take the Market app for instance. Scroll down to your list of purchased but not installed apps and check out the last time say, WidgetLocker, was updated. Check its date, hit the back button and what should it do? It SHOULD take you to the spot in your app list you were at. What does it do? Takes you to the top of your "Installed" apps list. Leaving you to scroll all the way back down to your original position in the list.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sotoskawasaki:
Coming from an iPhone 4, I have to say that there are a lot of things that Android needs to fix/improve. UI/UX is one of them. Although ICS is a huge step to the right direction. Having said that, to avoid conflicts, I say that I absolutely love my rooted Galaxy Nexus!
