I'm using Mikrunny's latest and getting about 1.5 - 2 days with moderate use (a bit more usage than your wife - I browse a bit more, send loads of texts, and a bit of facebook plus some short calls).

I use the Autostart app to stop all unnecessary things running in the background, I think it helps battery life, also Battery Defender which turns off the data signal when the phone is asleep which I imagine would save a fair bit of battery.

I want to set up DarkTremor A2SD ...

Is there a way to resize my FAT partition non-destructively and add an ext3?

If not (which is probably the case) -- what is the best way to backup my FAT part on Mac? I was going to just create a DMG with Disk Utility, then restore the image after partitioning the SD card. Will this preserve my .android-secure and permissions and all that?

Thanks!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evol4g:
You are right indeed when adding ext 3 theres no way to avoid a wipe.. Unfortunately I'm not a mac user but to back up my sd all I did was create a new folder titled SD BACKUP to my pc and literally just dragged and dropped to ensure every file was there, then once I partitioned to ext 3 I just plugged right back in and enabled USB mount, dragged and dropped back to the SD for the final time and presto!

I installed TWRP on my kindle fire and tried to reset it to factory defaults assuming that it will remove everything but it did not. now when i power it on it boots into TWRP and thats probably the only thing that there is on my device because i wiped everything. Am i done with the device or is there still something i can do?

OK, I know this probably isn't the right place to ask this, but I was hoping some of you guys would know the answer to this.

Every time I try to search the forum on my Galaxy Tab by clicking on the "search this forum" button, and I click on the text input box, the keyboard pops up for a split second and then disappears again.

I have tried to use a different browser, but that still doesn't help.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] BroBot175:

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Lsdozer:
Man, I thought this might work. I hadn't tried browser for tab yet, but just tried it, and it still doesn't let me search. Keyboard just disappear.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] gokpog:
It's a common problem with the Android browser, even the ICS one. Just click on "advanced search" instead of typing in the text box and type your keywords there. You'll get the same results, it's just one click more.

[HTC Sensation] mox123:
im getting the htc one x on april 5th launch date as confirmed by my network,

i will miss the sensation as I've just gotten used to it and it is fantastic,

I think I will still hold on to it rather than sell it, keep it as an emergency phone in case the one x packs in or something,
[HTC Sensation] pieces of cake:
Goodbye says I.
[HTC Sensation] mox123:
im not gone yet lol, your already rushing me out the door!
[HTC Sensation] DANOFDANGER:
Im getting the one s myself, the one x is too large for my hand or anyones i could imagine. Its more of a media phone than a work/social phone and couldn't imagine trucking that thing around in my pocket lol. The one S is the same size as the sensation which i think is the biggest a phone should be without it compromising efficiency to the user.

Also the quad core IMO wouldn't be efficient as well with the technology not utilizing multi cores properly, we have just started getting our dual cores right.

xD.

Hello everybody

I have a question about blocking screen.

I don’t know when stated but after I restart my HTC Inspire the cellular automatically blocking this is OK but the screen turns on automatically every 10 minutes.

The screen turns off automatically but I don’t know why the cellular does that.

I have reviewed if I have some automatically process every 10 minutes but I have not found nothing

Do you have any idea?

[Samsung Infuse 4G] Punnyabrata:
Hello Everyone,

To start with I was using my Infuse 4G blissfully after unlocking it since August 2011 on Tata Docomo Network (India) until yesterday when I changed the sim card as I migrated to another service provider Vodafone India.

I'm running [ODIN][UCKD5] Odin - Stock (100% or Root+3e) - (Update 06/05/11)

The phone has gone crazy ever-since I changed the sim.

It logged me out of all the apps like google account, twitter, facebook which is fine coz I logged back in.

But the wifi, GPS & data (although apn is empty) wont turn off. The moment I turn it off the next very second they'd turn back on.

I inserted the old sim and backed up everything using Wondershare MobileGo.

Turned off the phone. Inserted the new sim.

Then I deleted all user data from 3e recovery mode and then rebooted the phone.

Setup everything but no go. Samething. Wifi wont turn off. Cant save APN settings and now a new problem cropped up - I cannot turn on USB debugging.

Infact it will turn on (green check comes on) but the moment I inset the usb cable it overrides the usb debugging mode and asks me for options.

Then I tried > settings > privacy > Factory Reset

Again. No go. Same problems. Now I'm going crazy.

I have been trying to get things working and it's 6.28am in the morning (I haven't slept all night) - I need some help. Please.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Punnyabrata:
Solved

Finally solved the problem.

Inserted the old sim and turned off Avast Anti Theft then inserted the new sim. Done

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mdaudioguy:
Yeah, I get that, and wasn't intending to do something that wasn't allowed...

So, allow me to take it in a new direction, please -

With plenty of AT&T i777's out there, why do people seem to get different results by seemingly doing the same thing? You say try it on my phone, and I'd hazard a guess that many have done what I did, yet I saw very few people with the same problems. What are the possible variances?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] justin860:
This is general not question and answer...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mdaudioguy:
Thanks... I'm still feeling my way around here... obviously. Guess I gotta figure out how the forums work before I can learn how to make my phone work better.

There's about 20 different things that can vary, not counting user's perspective.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] autonomous-inc:
For instance, whether you're in space, or underwater really determines which kernel or ROM works for you. Some people around here say the real place everything varies is on an isolated island with no food or water, just ice skates and a volleyball and your phone with whatever ROM + kernel combo you're using.

Wiilllssooonnn!!!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jdbeitz:
Lol

Many things differ. Im far too intoxicated to go in depth, but download a few roms yourself and inspect them. Compare them together and read their logs. You'll really learn a lot by researching in depth.

Different ROMS run differently on every phone. you've gotta find the one that just 'feels' right.

Hope that somewhat answered your question lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SoCaliTrojan:
I suppose there might be differences depending on what batch your phone was made in. If you look in certain threads, a majority of users might have no problems while a couple have major problems. One time, everyone was having issues with a certain patch, but I found it to run absolutely perfect on my phone.

It's like the battery threads where everyone compares their stock battery. Some people get better batteries than the average, and some get worse batteries.

I try ROMs until I find one that works well for me; I then stick with it until I get bored again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Jank4AU:
You will also find that some modem/radios work better in different parts of the country. Also, different kennels may be set up to handle different loads & tasks, meaning that the apps you like to run may play better with kernel "A", but with my setup I might get better performance with kernel "B". People use their phones in vastly different ways, hence, the different user experience.

Example, my wife and I both have this phone but with different ROMS. I put the same kernel on both phones though because i was getting great battery life with it. However, she's not getting near the screen-on time I am because she uses it much differently than i do...she's a chick...Facebook is the devil. Hope this helps some. Just have fun, that's part of the Android experience.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] BeenAndroidized:
DITTO! That's hit the nail on the head. All ROMs are different from each other. Even the ones that the same team make (persay) with 2 different versions of the ROM (based on my experience with other phone ROMs). What you will use will depends on which ROM you will select in the long run. For the best performance, battery life, etc... You'll have to decide what you wants out of the ROM then select the one that can handle the tasks that you do.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Miami_Son:
Just like a personal computer, you could take two identical PCs and depending on the user apps installed and the customizations made by the users they will not perform identically. They will still look the same, but one may not be configured the way the other user prefers it. As the PCs get more use they will change based on user input and configuration. These phones are much the same. A ROM is a very personal choice and while it may look the same on two phones, the way it works is highly dependant upon how the user sets it up, how the use interacts with it, and what apps the user installs. That's why there really is no best ROM, only the ROM that best suits you. Finding it, unfortunately, rquires some personal trial and error to see what works best. No one can tell you what will work best for you.
[HTC Wildfire S] ru_LapTop:
Hi,my wildfire s was updated from 1.66.401.1 directly to 2.13.401.3 and is now stuck in the white screen (without logo) and continues in a bootloop. Bootloader menu didn`t work. Computer, of course, doesnt see the phone:( I know it's because I don`t update hboot. But there is any opportunity to fix the phone?
[HTC Wildfire S] vbhtt:
What do you mean by 'bootloader menu didn't work'? Did you try to remove the battery and then use vol down + power ?
[HTC Wildfire S] ru_LapTop:
Yes, I try. No responce. Thats unusual bootloop, I dont even see the HTC logo, only blinking screen
[HTC Wildfire S] MrTaco505:
That's not a bootloop

Your phone is probably bricked
[HTC Wildfire S] vbhtt:
You don't normally get bricked when you update your firmware especially if you are s-on and with b/l locked

You should go to the htc shop and show them your phone. They should replace it or atleast repair it.
[HTC Wildfire S] ru_LapTop:
Phone is no longer under warranty:( There is no way to repair the phone at home? XTC Clip?
[HTC Wildfire S] intel007:
They should still honour the warranty if your not unlocked and an official update caused the problem.
[HTC Wildfire S] vbhtt:
I think he means the time period of the warranty is over.

Silly question but does the orange/green led come on when you connect it to the charger or computer?
[HTC Wildfire S] ru_LapTop:
Yes, I mean it.

Red led lights up for 10 seconds, after that phone tries to turn on, and starts blinking again.
[HTC Wildfire S] vbhtt:
Is HTC sync installed on your computer? If not, then install it. Because without the drivers, your computer won't recognise the phone.

Do you know how to use adb?
[HTC Wildfire S] mhrsolanki2020:
can you boot into fastboot??

(remove the batery re insert it again after 5 sec and then hold the volume down key and power button for mostly 5 sec)

if you can do so then download ny rom extract it and then use the adb commands..

for that you will need adb files

http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?b6mk4b8p1xm5nok

download this zip .. unzip on desktop/there are three files in it if the three files are in the folder named android then remove the three files from the folder and paste the three files on dektop..

the rom you downloaded .. extract it..

and copy boot.img and system.img to desktop

when in boot loader.. the fastboot option will be highlighted select it

to select press power button..

when done connect the phone to pc. (dont forget to install htc sync, cuz you wud need drivers for the pc so that it can detect your phone..)

and then go to start menu on task bar..

select Run option..

in run option write cmd and click on ok

from now press enter after every command

cd desktop
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img

now remove the cable from phone..

remove the battery and try rebooting the phone..
[HTC Wildfire S] ru_LapTop:
I`m not a novice:) I know how to use HTC Sync and ADB, but they dont see the phone, otherwise I wouldnt ask.

Today I will try to go to the service center without warranty,maybe they will be able to help
[HTC Wildfire S] mhrsolanki2020:
ask him if you can pay him and get that thing back to normal :D
[HTC Wildfire S] ru_LapTop:
I did so:) But they demanded too high price, and obviously they want to change all hardware completely. I hope they are smart enough not to do this. The story goes on:D
[HTC Wildfire S] mhrsolanki2020:
try visiting a private mobile repair shop..
[HTC Wildfire S] ru_LapTop:
If official service will not be able to repair it,that the only thing that I will.

But I still interesting how device can recover Hboot, maybe someone in my city has it.
[HTC Wildfire S] mhrsolanki2020:
i dont get you
[HTC Wildfire S] baluuu:
If its a softwer problem i dont see why would they demand such "high prices"(you never said how much exactly) if they have the right eqipment compleatly reviving a dead phone will cost you around 20-30 euro. If thats high for you i guess you are right. But if its a hardware problem i dont see how a dev forum would help you. I'm a noob so i wouldnt know ...
[HTC Wildfire S] ru_LapTop:
Service Center wanted to change all motherboard, and demanded $195(!!):mad:

I found information about the device, called RiffBox($100-$150),I will use it. And in the future I will never go to such foolish service centers:mad:
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nashdude:
Back on March 2nd, I took the plunge and flashed CM7 on my rooted NT. Barring a few bugs that I could live with, everything works great!

Since then, Alpha Final came out, and I've been curious as to the difference people noticed between the two. I've read how the battery life is a little unstable (haven't really noticed that with alpha 12), and a few other things.

So, pardon me if this topic has been done already, but what are the benefits of upgrading from a version that already works for me? Does the wifi work better? Is the battery life---though unstable---still better under Final than it is under 12?

Thanks in advance, and kudos to the devs for an excellent ROM :)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nba1341:
Newer versions of alphas are usually going to be better...

With that being said Alpha final is much better. No more having to restart tablet because wifi won't connect and most importantly hardware video decoding. Cm 7.2 based.

Its overall better in ever single way however battery life is the same for me as it was on alpha 12
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Mike_IronFist:
There's three main differences:

1. Hardware Video Acceleration - This is a HUGE one. In Alpha 12, HD videos wouldn't necessarily decode properly or quickly - they'd play jittery and pixel-y because of a lack of H/W Video decoding. The newest version fixes this for a lot of video formats. In my experience, it's been amazing, but as always, your mileage may vary.

2. Wi-Fi has actually been tweaked and improved, so it's a bit more stable.

3. Alpha Final is built from latest CM7 Sources - This is a big deal because it means that in theory it should be more stable and have a slightly more robust feature set. Most people won't notice a difference, but it still stands that the Final is using code that is far more up to date.

Battery life in my experience has been about the same, but I haven't had much time to test extensively since I'm busy with University coursework.

I highly recommend upgrading to the latest version though; without H/W video acceleration you'll notice a lot of annoyances and performance issues when playing videos.

Excellent! This is EXACTLY the info I was looking for. Thanks, guys :)
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hubertkilgore:
OKAY so, to make a long story short i tried to triple boot a ROM that's not android and when i was done installing it i couldn't mount my "sd card". I figured if i rebooted i might fix its self so after rebooting it said "sd card damaged, might have to format". I hit format and nothing happened so then i tried to factory reset in android. This is where things really go south, after the factory reset i tried to reboot and i ended up boot-looping. I figured ma-by i should run web OS doctor but none of them work, the finish the process and say your touch-pad is rebooting follow the instructions on the screen but it just keeps boot-looping . Help and thanks in advance!
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] siralsmooth:
Which version of WebOS Doctor did you try? I believe only 3.0 doctors the partition tables. Otherwise you would need to manually reset the partition tables via novacom. Which is the original way to install android before the novacom boot mem acmeinstaller way created by the CM Team.

I've tryes all of them except 3.0.2 and 3. 0. 0

All it does is show the HP logo then reboot over and over again
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] siralsmooth:
I think your only chance of getting things back to norm, somewhat, will involve the novacom and manually adjusting the partition tables. from there the doctor will hopefully do the rest.
