I rooted my phone because I wanted a faster phone WITH better battery life. Even with the stock kernel, my phone is faster by using a different ROM than stock (I use MeanRom for the record). Plus, the tweaks to the menus (ala Leedroid Tweaks) give you the little things that you did not know you even wanted but now wonder why they are not included in the first place.
[HTC EVO 3D] dkdude36:
woah, snappy much? glad u aren't rooting for ur own good. you would get chewed up by overprotective people protecting their favorite rom devs when you're like "i want u to remove that ****ing useless crt animation right now, and no i don't wanna learn how to remove 1 line from build.prop cuz **** you that's why"

The long story (because some of us can use google):

Why Root?

What Does Root Give Me?

1. Full control over your system

2. Ability to alter system files. You can replace many parts of the "Android Core" with this including:

- Themes

- Core apps (maps, calendar, clock etc)

- Recovery image

- Bootloader

- Toolbox (linux binary that lets you execute simple linux commands like "ls") can be replaced with Busybox (slightly better option)

- Boot images

- Add linux binaries

3. Run special apps that need more control over the system SuperUser (lets you approve or deny the use of root access to any program)

Task Manager For Root (Lets you kill apps that you otherwise could not kill)

Tether apps (like the one found at [android-wifi-tether.googlecode.com])

<there are more but I cannot think of any right now>

4. Backup your system You can make a folder on your sdcard and backup all of your .apk files to your sdcard (helps if an author decides to "upgrade" you to a version that requires you to pay to use the version you just had)

5. Relocate your (browser/maps/market) cache to your /sdcard

6. Relocate your installed applications to your /sdcard

7. Reboot your phone from the terminal app easily (su <enter> reboot <enter>)

[HTC EVO 3D] t4d73:
Ok so say I want to use MeanRom for example. Will I be able to use it by just using HTC's method of unlocking? And will i have root by doing just that? I an using the latest ota by the way. Thanks in advance for any advice.
[HTC EVO 3D] coal686:
Yes, you can use HTC's unlocking method. If you do use their method, I recommend you use 4ext as your recovery as the newest version (currently in testing) allows you to flash both the ROM and kernel in recovery. Otherwise you would have to downgrade your Hboot to 1.4. I did it, it's not too bad if you follow the directions to the letter and it does not put you into HTC's database of rooted felons :).

While you technically do not have root by unlocking, all the ROMs have the SU app built in which gives you root. So, unlocking gives you the ability to flash ROMs which gives you root.

I recommend you read:

Thanks for the info! Think I'll try the unlock method first and see where that gets me. Have to wait till tonight but I'm looking toward to trying.

The OP is a complete troll/noob/tard for those that don't already know, and are unknowingly posting legit info.
[HTC EVO 3D] t4d73:
Ok I have a question. Can I flash a ROM without partitioning SD or using a custom recovery and just unlocking with HTC unlock methods?
[HTC EVO 3D] joehunni:
You do need a recovery, but partioning is unnecessary.

[Motorola Droid Bionic] dylanear:
Any tips for tracking down the culprit? The battery and data manager in the settings just says "Android OS 61%". "Android System" is only 2% and that seems to include all the things I'd guess would use power. My battery life has been ok, not amazing, but I'd get through most days with minimal charging. Now it seems that if I get 4 or 6 hours from a charge I'm lucky.

Is there any way to get finer grained analysis on what exact process, daemon or service is using up my electrons?!

I can't recall what I've installed recently, but something must have changed.

Also I see "Phone Idle" and "Cell Standby", both used 4%. What's the difference, or is this the same thing listed twice?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dpiddy14:
My wife is having the same problem. Have you been able to track anything down? The OS shouldn't been draining the phone while its sitting in your pocket. We had the battery replaced once thinking that was the problem and after about a week its happening again.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Memp2Atl85:
This happened to me too guys. Battery was dying quick and the phone was running hot. Got watchdog lite free from the market and it ended up being a Android media process... Had to take battery out, take out SD card and Sim card...put em back in, reboot, and all was well...I think my Google music was trying to make songs available offline so I cleared google music data and everything has been fine since.

So I've searched and read about 15 articles (I also REALLY like this auto search in while making new thread deal). A lot of people have asked about this but almost all the links seem to broken since most of the articles are made in 2010 or prior. I didn't make a back up when I rooted and put a custom rom on my phone. I did it after the most recent update which unrevoked doesn't support, is there a rom out there with the stock install?

I really just want my 4g back, I'll probably reroot it but leave the regular sprint os on. If not does anyone know of a rom with 4g and the sprint voicemail? Feel free to flame me, just so long as I can get an answer :(.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deegan87:
Today I rooted my fiance's phone and put ICS on it. I made a nandroid of the stock ROM before I wiped it and put ICS on it. I didn't realize that most of her contacts were stored on the phone and were unsynced with her gmail.

Using Titanium Pro I can access her contact storage and restore it, but the AOKP handles contacts differently than stock, and won't restore the contacts. I also can't get the nandroid image to restore properly to try and export the contacts.

What should I do?

Update: I tried restoring the stock ROM and ran into a host of new problems that resulted in a bootloop so bad that it wouldn't get past the AT&T screen.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RootTheMachine:
I can't stress how impossibly simple it is when you just sync them with google. You don't even have to think about backing up/restoring them EVER. Instead of just restoring the stock nandroid, you must flash back to stock first because you need the kernels to match when restoring a stock rom.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b-eock:
You also need the partition layout to match what is mapped in the kernel and framework...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deegan87:
Trust me, I know. It's my FIANCE'S phone, not mine. It didn't even occur to me to backup the contacts, because it wouldn't ever occur to me to keep them stored internally and not on Google's servers.

I used Titanium's ability to pull contacts from a nandroid and restored data only. It got almost all the contacts back.

I'm not restoring everything back to stock, not worth the pitfalls and potential bricking.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b-eock:
There isn't one chance of bricking if you don't flash bootloaders...

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TASL:
Hey, I know this is well trodden territory and trust me I've read every post available on the subject, but I can not get *smooth* flash video on any website - namely ABC.com and HULU.com. I personally don't use those websites, but my GF does extensively. Here are the two scenarios I am trying to get working:

1. Task's 14 full w/pershoot's latest kernel (OC'ed 1.4ghz) - I have tried using the stock Browser and Dolphin HD, same results in both. I have modded the lib file from AND to WIN on the latest Flash update, but the video is choppy and the subtitles do not sync well. I have reduced the resolution to 240p and run the videos as full screen, but the playback is still choppy - thankfully the audio is at least synced.

- Is there a better way to set this up?

- Is there a script I can run to improve performance?

- Is there another browser that has better performance?

2. CM9 nightly (no mods) - In this scenario I am able to mod the lib file, but the websites cause the stock browser and Dolphin HD to lock up (won't load any other pages either). None of the modded apk's available work either. The websites will load, but when I click on a video or flash element the browser will hang.

- Same questions from above.

I'd like to skip the discussion over flash as a dead technology, and that flash wasn't really meant for mobile technology... Right now, Hulu and ABC use flash and right now Hulu and ABC do not provide android apps. I am not interested in paying for Hulu Plus just for the ability to access the basic features of the website.

If the answer is simply, scenario 1 is the best possible at this time - I can accept that. But hopefully someone will be able to provide some tips or instructions on improving the quality of flash on the 10.1 tablet (my thinking, if a p4 1ghz w/512ram can run hulu without a problem, why does my tablet not have enough horsepower?).

Thanks in advance. Please let me know if there is any further information I can provide (and if it is some kind of log, how I can get the information to provide).

I do agree with zefie over the poor portover to ARM devices which is why we suffer when Android was supposed to be the dominator over Apples no-flash policy.

I would suggest after you are done watching or whatever, you change the governor back to ondemand as performance keeps the CPU at 100% processing making it eat more juice. Video watching itself drains battery, and so will the governor.
