[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Antique_Angel:
Hello there!

I would like to ask you guys which 2.3 ROM has bestest battery life.

Now I'm using GingerXperia 25 with nAa, undervolt, CPU -19mHz - 600mHz, smartass v2. The ROM works like charm to me and it looses 1% at night and almost nothing wile I'm not using it. But when I start using it (going to see images, going to Settings, nothing special) it drain 1% of my battery every 3 minutes.

Can you give-me some advice on that?
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SweetPurple:
Delete EMAIL.APK and MAPS.APK =)

---------- Post added at 01:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:05 AM ----------

But i've tested this rom once, yes the battery time is very bad !

Try android prime HD, or Xperience =)

They're better than gingerxperia ;)
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevin coelho:
Go on settings, cyanogen options and change some settings that may improve performance but drain more battery (ex: extra brightness) ;) Remove apps u don't use with a root uninstaller app. Ex: email, gmail, facebook, youtube, maps etc ;)

I've got nothing installed yet. Gonna try PrimeHD 4.0 :)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Funnypie:
So I had recently rooted my phone and decided to install the one that I kept hearing about which was Cyanogenmod. I used the captivate files but I had a samsung I896 not I897 so I believe that it semibricked my phone. I restored it back to stock (I forgot to backup because I was over excited and stupid) using Odin3 oneclick loader. This was not a good idea because my phone went from Rogers with android 2.3.3 to AT&T with android 2.1. I rerooted and removed all the crapware and now I'm wondering how to get back to rogers or how to get a custom rom instead (because that's what I was trying to do in the first place).

P.S. I have already tried using google to research the problem and I had no luck so it would be a great help if someone here could share their knowledge
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
The i896 and 897 are completely identical except for the cosmetic branding.

The fact that cm7 is for the i897 makes no difference, something else went wrong.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Funnypie:
Can you give me some advice? Could you share your knowledge and tell me what might have gone wrong?

[General Questions and Answers] de0184:
Hi,

I have possibly a stupid question about the taskbar of WM6.5.

Recently I changed to a PDA (without phone) with Windows Mobile 6.5 classic.

I'm missing the "X" in the taskbar to quit or terminate applications. A friend owns

also a device (different as my unit) with WM6.5 , but he gets the X.

I'm a bit confused.

Some applications which basically work, but do not offer an Exit/QUIT/Cancel

/Back/etc. button, can not be terminated anymore. Just with the task manager

I'm able to quit these application or parts of it. It's very annoying and it

prevents to run these applications if they need a setup which than can never be left.

Does anybody know the reason why my device does not offer the "X", but

others do ? Can I change anything to get it ?

Thank you very much.

Regards

Robert

Lately, the dialer app has been using way too much battery for some reason. It says 68% as of now. I don't get what makes it use so much battery, especially since I use "GO contacts" as an alternative.

So I want to disable it all together. I tried freezing with Titanium Backup, but it doesn't seem like it's working. It just stays on the "Freezing..." message forever.

Any ideas?

Hi everyone

last week i install a custom rom that said he could installed whatsapp and it was true is installed and works because this rom looks like a phone, whatsapp

In the options> status appears phone number, network, signal strenght and stuff but obviously all listed as unknown.

how i can do the same, in a stock ROM

u cant.unless you know how to make a rom and than you will create a rom that will

but why do you want stock rom?its really slow
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Meticulus:
Ugh, It's the "deviceId" hack, I created that allows Whatsapp to run. It doesn't have anything to do with what you see in settings.

If you know how to use adb and can pull the framework.jar, framework-res.apk, twframework-res.apk from your device and post them, I will see if I can apply the hack to your stock. Also, please note if you have 5.0 and your stock android version ie 2.3.5... ;)

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Shep FC3:
I'm wondering the best/easiest way to execute a script that simply runs a few sql commands. I initially wrote a script using sl4a and python, but am having issues because of permissions. The database that I'm running the sql against is /datadata/com.android.providers.media/databases/external.db. I can run the commands successfully via adb sqlite3.

I've attempted to connect to the db both within that directory and using sudo to copy it to /sdcard/. The sqlite error I receive is that the file is corrupt or malformed. However I can pull the file locally and connect to it fine. Here's the gist of the script:

media_db = '/datadata/com.android.providers.media/databases/external.db'

if os.path.exists(media_db):
conn = sqlite3.connect(media_db)
cursor = conn.cursor()
cursor.execute('SELECT title, COUNT(rowid) AS dups FROM files WHERE is_music = 1 GROUP BY title HAVING (COUNT(title) > 1)')
print cursor.rowcount()

There's a bit more to it, but I can't even get past the connect. I've also tried doing this:

# This executes sudo properly
os.system('su -c "cp /datadata/com.android.providers.media/databases/external.db /sdcard/external.db"')

But then I get the malformed file error on the above execute statement. Any help or tips are greatly appreciated.

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Snow_fox:
Alright guys. I've done a bit of reading and I am just double checking I have this right *BEFORE* I dive in head first and screw something up. (I tend to be dyslexic so I make it a habit to read things then ask questions instead of bricking a device)

ATM I am on the official Honeycomb stock.

In order to get on a custom rom, I must first downgrade to GB, then upgrade to the rom I want?

I am only trying to make sure I have this right before I damage my device..

I also would like to know how brickable these flyers are.. I know the battery can't be removed which is how I've had to reboot my captivate several times when nothing else worked..
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] redpoint73:
You need to downgrade, then get S-Off and root using Revolutionary. Then you can flash any GB ROM. If you want to flash a HC ROM, you need to use globatron's method to upgrade to HC first, since the Hboot is different for HC. Then you can flash any HC ROM.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Snow_fox:
Well then.

I'll save this for when I have time and a stable rom is out..

Also, if you want to be able to type in Arabic, SwiftKey X supports it and a long list of other languages. I use it for typing things in German. Sadly you just missed the 49 cent sale that was going on.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] fduraibi:
until we get a real solution you can use Opera mini which i am using now and it displays arabic pages correctly. i think normal Opera will work too but i haven't tried it.

for the keyboard i am using miltiling keyboard, it is free and support arabic. it will allow you to type in arabic and there is an option to make it connect the letters for you but it may not display correctly for iphone users (which we don't care for anyway lol)

Here is a test using that keyboard:

ﺍﺧﺘﺒﺎﺭ ﺍﻟﻜﺘﺎﺑﺔ ﺑﺎﻟﻌﺮﺑﻲ ﻓﻲ ﺟﻬﺎﺯ ﻗﺎﻟﻜﺴﻲ ﻧﻮﺕ ﻏﻴﺮ ﻣﻌﺮﺏ

sent from my Galaxy Note (stock rom, and not rooted yet)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] fduraibi:
Ok, i got a solution. not very straight forward but it works. and you need "root"

There are two solutions:

1- The first thing you need to do is deodex your rom or get one that is already deodexed like TPC rom here

Then use the patching script made by madmack from here

This script should patch these files:

framework.jar

libandroid_runtime.so

libicuuc-arabic.so

libwebcore.so

which will fix Arabic for every thing, i used the latest patcher 0.907 which now works for the Galaxy Note.

anyway, you can copy these files over to your phone "fix the user owner and permission" or use the zip file that was also generated by the patching script and flash it using CWM recovery. I attached the file i generated using my stock and deodexed rom it should work for you as well if you have the same phone and same rom (Stock 2.3.6).

Reboot and clean the cache and dalvik cache.

Now browser, gmail, twitter, whatsapp, facebook...etc should show the arabic correctly.

2- Fixing the browser and gmail only: this is easier and doesn't need deodex (since it patches lib files only) but it still need root and will not fix twitter, whatsapp and the other applications.

This fix also uses madmack patch.

The fix is here

or you can go directly to the android market "Google Play" and install the patcher, it is very easy and will patch the file with a single click from your phone

Thanks to madmack and brightidea and anyone who made this possible.

This is for AT&T Galaxy Note only (i717) (2.3.6) the same process should work for other phones as well, but the attached files will only work with this phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Phatsnake:
Thanks for all the info man. Have you tested this method thoroughly? No bugs or errors here or there? I'm still considering whether I should get it now or wait till ICS then look for a solution after that lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] fduraibi:
My phone runs great since then, btw this patching method is not new and has been tested before on so many phones, i was using it with my old Nexus S, I also did a similar thing two days ago to arabize a Galaxy S II and that one works great too.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] fduraibi:
1- What ROM are you running now on your phone?

2- Is it deodex?

3- Have you installed a recovery tool other than the default? (like CWM, or TWRP)

* if you don't know what these means then i would recommend that you search for those terms and learn about them before you start doing stuff to your phone or you might end up with a bricked device.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] sam535:
1- I am not running any ROM except when I open ROM manager

I have this called Flash ClockworkMod Recovery above (reboot into recovery)

when I click on it, it shows list of phone types such as (commtiva Z71, Dell Streak, Geeksphone ONE, Samsung Epic4G, Samsung galaxy i9000, Samsung T-mobile Galaxy s2.........etc)

2- I have no clue what deodex is but I think not.

3- I honestly did not install any of these recovery.

The manufacturers always recommend to fully charge first, although I've rarely been able to keep my hands off the phone long enough. ;)

What actually does something for your battery life though, is fully charge, and then fully drain once a month or so.

This is NOT due to battery chemistry, but entirely due to the calibration of the battery software.

Older battery types needed this treatment to physically work better, li-ion revives this problem with this "anti catch fire and kill you"-chip ;)
