Another discontinued Virtuous ROM :(
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] geojoking:
It's such a pity. When Virtuous first released a ROM for the Flyer I thought our device was finally getting some attention and we were going to be blessed with something really good. But after a while I realized it was just an experiment. :(

And nothing from HTC, no wonder they are going down!...

This is where logic does not make any sense. HTC ought to covertly chip in to help with "side developments" on this platform such that they can release a real killer tablet they can be really proud of. It is known to the outside world that the XDA developers are the best around in terms of getting things done and improving on ROMs, proven over and over many times. HTC did not contribute much to Android and I am presently surprised that Sony did the MOST contribution according to Google. What gives ?. Sony is not even leading in any of their products as far as Android is concern, HTC did take some lead before and yet. We get this "no help, don't care" attitude ?. It is similar to many getting pissed off with Apple in their attitude in suing any company that threatens them commercially.

Note: It does not take any effort for HTC to inform their engineers that they can help inside XDA circles on a discrete basis and respect their confidentiality. Users really do not care, which company contributes what, but the overall product/solution is good enough for daily use. Improvements done in a stepwise way allowing users to fall-back whenever they chooses. I think the day when a NEW manufacturer of handset/tablets that really supports Open Source and XDA communities will make a great difference in the market. One that makes a handset with 2 microSD slots allowing us to do Recovery in many ways and boot whatever image we wanted.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] PVL_93_RU:
Too bad that it's not gonna happen
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] redpoint73:
Have to agree. The modding community is small in comparison to HTC's total customer base, and helping XDA simply would not help HTC's bottom line by much, if at all. What we do see is a lot of douchebags that come onto XDA because they bricked their phone out of their own negligence and stupidity, and ask about returning the phone under warranty and pretending it wasn't their fault.

Right or wrong, its pretty clear that HTC is seeing the modding community as something that hurts their profits, rather than helping. That's why they have increasingly locked down their devices, delay kernel source, etc. HTC isn't going to be spending any more time helping out the modding community, as HTC is clearly headed in the other direction.

But this is way off topic.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] yazyazoo:
I have been using this rom for the last few months and it has been great. However I am about to sell this tab and get the Nexus 7. What would be the best way to get back to stock form so I can resell the device? I got s-off thru revolutionary. I am on HC as I was running Leedroid HC then flashed to Virtuous.

Would I first get S-ON then flash to the generic HC rom with the method linked?

Hello Chris, any chance you'll try and port any of the new ROMs (JB/ICS) from higher resolution devices like HTC One X (S4 version)? It's such a shame Flyer got left by everyone, HTC first in that list.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] chrisch1974:
I made an internal port of Infinity to the Flyer but for this we (Flemmard and me) also had to make a 3.0 kernel for it. And this one makes still a lot of problems as it is not stable for an release. And the base itself is not the best too.

I'm still hoping that HTC is bringing a new tablet (Flyer 2) soon and then we can make a good rom for the Flyer too.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] teorouge:
Thanks, count me in for any beta testing need, if needed. ;)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] PVL_93_RU:
Wait, what? Like, if Flyer 2 (aka Flyer S) will have Jelly Bean with newer Sense for tablets - you will bring it to Flyer?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] chrisch1974:
It's at least the plan to try to port it. And as Infinity (VilleC2 base) hasn't worked so bad on the Flyer too I'll hope that we can bring a nice rom. But this is something we have to wait for the first ruu and then we will see what's possible.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] schalmers:
Thank you Chris, and you and the virtuous team are one of our last hopes to ever see a fully functional ICS or JB rom on the Flyer. It seems most of the developers have moved on to new toys. It is a shame as I think hardware wise it is still a very good tablet.

Thanks for continuing to look for new possibilities and of course it is understood there are no guarantees.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] lekhwani:
I love my flyer and would love see any os upgrade.

[HTC EVO 3D] Sover3igN:
Isn't that a little bit sad?

Since the support for this phone is realy crap.

I have the issue where the bat does not charge to 100%.

I have to remove the cable when it hits the green LED (99% full) and reconnect it again (LED turns red) to get to 100% finally.

When I contact HTC they tell me to send it for repair.

Buit this is obviously a software issue, not a hardfware issue.

An update would fix it easily.

My GF has same issue, and I swapped tyhe phone at the store in the first week because of this. New phjone exactly same problem.

Help?
[HTC EVO 3D] KikinSinz:
You need to see a number to know your

phone is charged 100% overnight?

[HTC EVO 3D] jclendineng:
Cool story
[HTC EVO 3D] tgruendler:
Normal behavior. And if this is the only issue you are having (not really an issue) you are doing pretty well. The phone has a built in overcharge protection (as all phones do) that will charge the phone to 100% or just under then let it discharge to 90-95% and then charge again to 100%. There are SBC kernels for other phones that will change this effect by charging to 100% and then trickle charge it to keep it at 100%, but none made for the EVO3D because it really doesn't seem like a huge deal. And if you are really sending phones back over 1%, you are one picky dude. :)
[HTC EVO 3D] wasnt:
I think your thread title is wrong. There are some great fully functional ROMs out there.

The battery will fluctuate from 95%-100% while on the charger. Think it's an HTC issue, or maybe Android. This isn't something to get all pissed off about IMO, maybe I am missing something though.
[HTC EVO 3D] long-d:
yep.. is 100% normal.

i'm running on a shawn3d 1.4 rom, with a akernel v10.07, have a battery life of over 2 days, with bluetooth and wifi on, medium use..

everything but I mean everything works..

so euhm... whats the problem again??? :confused:
[HTC EVO 3D] VirusZer0:
OP,

Why you butt hurt?

Just kidding. These issues are all normal for android phones. I have seen these issues on the Heroc, OG Evo, Samsung Epic and now Evo 3D.
[HTC EVO 3D] Sover3igN:
It is not that I am picky.

You must agree that it is quite anoying if you sleep for 8 hours while charging, and you then see a green LED, but then to see 99%.

When you for instance have the alarmclock ringning, you drain 2 or 3%.

It is not normal behaviour I think. PLus bat-life was 2 days in the first 2 weeks, now I barely last a day.

Any thoughts?

Edit...: 3 HTC phones before NO problem at all
[HTC EVO 3D] mnomaanw:
There is no such type of issue on my evo 3d. I've tried around 15 different ROMs and all were functioning as they should.

The issue you have posted is not an issue. If you see green LED and numbers below 100% then your phone went to 100% before but you havent noticed that. I advise you to keep your eyes on the battery icon when the LED is red and % are near 98-99. You will notice it goes to 100% and red LED turns green. Then the numbers will go down as your battery discharges.

It is an overcharge protection made by the manufacturer.
[HTC EVO 3D] wasnt:
What ROM are you on? Try a custom ROM for better battery life. I'm using ViperROM and plenty of people provide screen shots in that thread of their own findings (e.g. ridiculously long battery life).
[HTC EVO 3D] ncfastls1:
You want your battery percentage to stay at 100 when you charge it? Get rid of your 3d, get an evo 4g, put a froyo ROM on it and use a sbc kernel. Other than that, quit *****ing. Like others have said its a built in over charge protection from HTC. Some may argue if its actually needed because i used an sbc kernel on my old evo ever since it was available and never had a problem with my battery. But is like 3-4% really that big of a deal?

Saying that there are no fully functioning roms is a bit rude imo, there are tons. I use warm 2.3 and it has zero problems.

[HTC EVO 3D] ch1naski:
It's not a issue, it's supposed to be that way. It has a "maintain" function once it reaches 100, it will let itself drain back to 95, the charge back to 100, then back down, etc.. It's to maintain the battery correctly .

Dumbass with a smartphone.
[HTC EVO 3D] SoraX64:
It's not an issue you idiot. It's so your battery doesn't die for good after a short amount if time. They're not supposed to be fully charged like that. Educate yourself instead of looking like a fool.
[HTC EVO 3D] Night·Fire:
If a lithium battery were brought to 100% and the charger kept charging it to keep it at 100%, you would have far worse issues than a 5% fluctuation, you would likely have a house that has burned down. Lithium batteries are very picky about their voltage, too much and they go into a runaway exothermic condition and become fireballs, too little and they go into a runaway exothermic condition and become fireballs.

Check out youtube videos about damaged or overcharged lithium batteries.
[HTC EVO 3D] mijito6:
Honestly, this is a problem with all Android phones, I've gone from the EVO 4g to the E3D and I've had the same issue, though I wouldn't exactly call it a "problem"...

What I do when I wake is unplug my phone, check my email/social networks on it for a few minutes, let the battery drain a few % points, then plug it back up while I shower. It sounds weird, but unplugging and re-plugging really helps, as my battery then stays at 100/99% for at least an hour after I leave my house before beginning to drain.

I've noticed that if I don't do this, the battery drains a lot faster than it would if I had...

Hope this helps :)

[HTC EVO 3D] ColdH33t:
I agree with the OP and it is quite annoying that there's really no ROM that seems to suit my desires.

I've gone to tweaking Warm to my liking which is ultimately not what I wanted to do. In essence, it's really a waiting game for CM9 on the EVO 3d.

Some of you may argue that Android is meant to be tweaked. In a sense that's not true as Java decompilation was never a main point of the language. And even then Android doesn't technically run Java apps. Pretty much all the tweaking that goes on on XDA is thanks to Java being compiled to bytecode which can be more or less decompiled back to source.

It would seem to me that everyone's so caught up in this idea that Android is more customizeable and more open source than iPhone which is true, but that's not to say that Android is the better platform overall. Java is inherently more resource heavy than Objective C. Android suffers from severe fragmentation. Android also has a pretty lackluster app market.

Sure you can not believe me, whatever, nbd. But don't assume that people are seeing imaginary flaws in Android and ROMs on XDA.

Also, iOS is more complicated than Android. Android is basically Linux running a special Dalvik VM. iOS has some different init processes which differentiate it pretty strongly from Linux.

Also, by choosing Java, Android did alienate a lot of devs. C based programming is significantly more logical and significantly preferred in the Computer Science industry (Believe me or not. I'm an undergrad freshman CS student taking graduate courses if you need some sort of background check).

OP if I might suggest, the old Warm Rom works 100% provided you push the htcmusic.apk, and htcdock.apk (I think these are the names. Too lazy to check.) from SenselessROM and then grab the framework.jar that knightrider13 posted in the Warm thread. Granted you lose beats, but that's technically not in the original stock 100% lol

download that and extract it..the cmd can extract mtz files from the sd card..or you can place the theme to be modded in the 'orig_mtz' folder...then after unpacking it, go to lockscreen,advance..there you have the manifest xml file...edit it to suit the screen size and if you play around a bit you'll know how to use different unlockers and you can make battery percentage, missed calls,msgs etc appear...oh yeah and dont forget to resize the png files too!!have fun!! and you can get an idea by unpacking mtz files to read the manifest.xml and see how the theme is written!!

repack and you can push it to sdcard:):),...and yep thats a new theme right there:):)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dvandam:
This weekend I went on a trip and decided to try out using my Skyrocket as a GPS navigator using Google Navigation. I had my phone mounted and plugged in the whole time for about a 2 hour trip. The screen was on the whole time usually at high brightness (it would dim every once in a while.) When I removed my phone from the mount I noticed the power was down to the low 60's, which struck me as slightly odd since it was plugged into the charger the whole time. The next day I tried to use it as a GPS system again, but even as it was plugged in, this time I literally saw the battery gauge draining. When I turned off navigation and the screen the phone would finally start charging.

Is this a common thing or is there an issue with my phone or possibly my charger? Does doing all those things really drain the battery faster than it can charge it? One last note is that I was not in an LTE area during this, or at least not the whole time (I only noticed it was LTE at one time during the trip.) When I saw my battery draining in front of me I definitely was not in an LTE area.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] ExtraDas:
Might be your charger. I'm having no problems using it as my primary driving, hiking and general outdoor GPS unit. When on car charger, it's charging faster then it drains.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dvandam:
I believe my charger is an old Motorola car charger that came with my wife's old dumbphone. It's actually not even a Micro-USB charger, but rather a Mini-USB with an adapter.

This may be a dumb question, but the actual charging port shouldn't be the issue right? I'm assuming those are always the same standard.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jslanger:
Check the car charger amperage output. I have an old car charger to USB that only puts out 750mA and another thats puts out 1A. Anything less than 1A with the navigation running (which means the screen and GPS stay on, of course), and it'll still drain the battery (and even at 1A it may still drain).

I've been putting off getting a powerful enough car charger myself. You'll need one that puts out 1-2A I would think. Most of the common ones off the shelf are 1A or less, and I've heard that some chargers reported max output is not as good as reported.

When I was looking for a more powerful option, I saw that one on Amazon as well. My only hesitation at buying it was why it was so much cheaper than all comparable options at local stores, or even online...I've heard that the cheapie chargers may not actually output what they say...though for $4 plus shipping, I guess it's not much of a gamble. Let us know how it performs!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] styx66:
Its actually more than just the charger output that is a problem. If the center two pins on the USB connection aren't shorted, the phone will treat it as a USB connection to a computer, not an AC connection from the wall, and only draw a max 500mah. I had bought a 1amp and 2 amp charger for my car and would get the same results as the 500. I started to think it was my car limiting my output!

But I then found an article detailing this problem that I've since lost the link to, but the method worked. Pop open the charger and solder the 2 middle connectors together and all is good.

I don't know why the charger manufacturers don't know this... Or maybe this phone is doing something new? Maybe someone makes a USB-> micro USB with the center pair shorted in cable?

Just Google "Solder USB Car Charger" and you'll find plenty of tutorials about how to do that. Personally I'd rather just buy one that out of the box works.
