I see what the problem is. You don't have a T989.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Hizpanick:
I use Juice Defender and it does pretty much what you describe. When the screen is off, data is disabled, but phone calls/SMS come through the fine. Every 15 minutes or so it turns the data on, let's the sync accounts cync, then turns off data again. It also uses radio towers to roughly determine my location and turn wifi on/off depending on it thinks where I am. It's pretty good, I can go easily 18 hours with intermittent, heavy usage (netflix, pandora, Google+). If I am just letting it idle and use it to just browse web and send SMS, it goes easily over 24 hours.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] generalist:
There you go. :)

Thanks for posting your example. It helps prove that the approach is the most important thing. Some specifics are novel (toggling Google services connectivity, mainly), but the approach (having a strategy for toggling power-hungry features and services) is what counts, however it is done.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] lesnaej16:
sir what is t989 ???

much appreciated...thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] generalist:
Hello. It is the SGH-T989 phone model; the Samsung Galaxy S II for T-Mobile.

Many improvements to Android phones are done with software that is custom or customized for each phone model, per carrier. So much of what works for improving battery performance on an SGH-T989 may be possible for your phone model only using equivalent customized software. However, you will not find it in this SGH-T989 forum.

If there is not a forum for your phone model here at xda developers, try other Android forum websites. Also, see if you can do any of the feature toggling I mentioned at the start of this thread (mobile data and cell radio.)

Good luck!
[Android Themes] egyptshun:
Okay, I took a FREE apk of a skin, and shoved this theme in, all I had to do was paste it in data/app/ with root explorer. Here you go (Download at bottom). Any problems PM me and I'll remove it asap. After pasted, go to audio manager and select the acs theme. Looks good, I like it, and im extremely picky.

Couldnt find a free skin so I just MADE these btw. Not the apk or zip, just most of the png (That matter.)

EDIT: SORRY, YOU HAVE TO INSTALL ACS SKIN OFF THE MARKET FIRST AND THEN REPLACE IT WITH THE ONE PROVIDED :)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] wolfen69:
First of all, I would like to thank the devs for all their hard work and dedication. But I really would like some honest insight into this whole custom rom thing.

After reading just about every post on every thread in the development section, I have noticed that a lot of people have problems with the roms (some minor, some major) in one fashion or another. It seems that there is no rom that technically works 100% perfect. But this is not a complaint on my end.

What I want to know is, do all of you just love tinkering with your phone that much that you will reflash new roms every week, (or less) look for workarounds and fixes, and put up with glitches?

It was fun for me for about a week, but quickly got old. I was looking for that magical rom that would change my life, but never happened. Regardless of whether I was using custom or stock, I use my phone in exactly the same way all day. So I had to ask myself if the constant flashing and fixing was worth it just to find a perfect solution that doesn't exist to begin with.

I mean, don't people just want to use their phones instead of constantly trying new things? Or is it just a way of life now, and you don't care how much time you spend. Is flashing new roms and fixing things the purpose of having your phone? I thought it was to make phone calls and everything else we do day to day.

Maybe you could enlighten me as to why you are a flashoholic, and not a regular phone user.

And one other thing. If you are into tinkering so much, why not set aside a spare hard drive or partition on your computer and install some linux distros? The customization possibilties are literally endless with linux on the desktop, and can provide years of entertainment and challenges. It just seems odd that a bunch of pc users would use their (linux based) phones as a means to experiment, but not their desktop/laptop pc's. And yes, I realize some of you might use linux.

Sorry for the length, but just would like some insight into these questions.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] jebac21:
i do it for that fresh look and new ideas some people have with there roms that i wish was standard
[Samsung Infuse 4G] MaliciousIntent69:
Its for customization. Freedom. Choice. And feel. Nuff said.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] MaliciousIntent69:
And also, honestly it takes 30 seconds to flash a rom. Not really wasting mich time there.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Garen21:
Stock isn't too perfect either though...
[Samsung Infuse 4G] jason4962:
backup old rom . old data . old apps. wipe data. wipe cache . 30seconds to flash that rom . srtup phone restore all the apps . restore all the old data if you saved.

i flash a new rom almost every 3 days but it takes about an hour of time each time sometimes even 2 if you messed up ^_^
[Samsung Infuse 4G] tmease1:
This is the easiest way to explain this without going into a bunch of detail. Customizing my phone is one of my hobbies. It is kind of the same thing as to when you buy a house or a car and want to fix it up or change things on it. When you change things on it, it makes it yours and nobody has one exactly the same.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Zen Arcade:
Wolfen - We all have a choice to accept things as they are, or to expect things to be a certain way and be disillusioned when they are not, or to take direct action through our own works to effect change.

Most people who've been here a while are here because they like to tinker with their phones. Those who provide custom roms are not paid for their work. Some accept donations, but there is no requirement for anyone to pay up front. If you do not understand or appreciate what people do here you are free to choose another path.

I do hope you stick around though, or at least check in every once and a while. I think there are some good things coming. For example, entropy512 just released a kernel that allows HDMI to work. The Collective, bigfau, qkstr and others continue to release stock-based roms that focus on improving stability, performance, features, and customizability.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] zelendel:
Custom roms will never be 100% bug free. This is due to the nature of the beast. Only you can make the choice on if it is worth it. Custom roms are not for everyone. To be honest its not for most people. The ones that will use custom roms are those that enjoy troubleshooting and helping to find and fix bugs.

Now as per the nature of the site you will most likely get a ton of people that say it is very worth it. While they are not wrong, they are also not right. It is all up to you.

I got it from a guy while it was still on his cricket account and still running internet. I activated it today on the $55 plan and there is no data whatsoever, not even a freaking 3g symbol..

I opened up ##data# and all the settings had reverted to the stock sprint. I edited the settings with the ones I had found on numerous websites explaining the flash and still nothing...even did the Bettercut homescreen shortcut to edit Wap settings to cricket. Talk and text works great, but no data. Its on the android 2.3.3 with a 35613 prl. Its on the stock Rom and its not rooted. I live in Wichita Kansas if that helps. Can anybody tell me what's the deal???

Features

Touch

- click on an entry to select it

- double click on an entry do "execute" it

- the back key works as back

- dragging the menu will move it, if possible

- keys still work

Custom Colors

create a file named ".config" in the clockworkmod-folder on your internal sdcard (in android that would be /sdcard/clockworkmod/.config)

the syntax per line is:

TYPE=R,G,B,A

Valid types are:

MENU_TEXT_COLOR
NORMAL_TEXT_COLOR
HEADER_TEXT_COLOR

Example:

MENU_TEXT_COLOR=255,0,0,200
NORMAL_TEXT_COLOR=0,255,0,200
HEADER_TEXT_COLOR=0,0,255,200

That would display your header in blue, your menu in red and the log in green.

If you don't know how to use it, then you probably shouldn't, just saying :P

will flash in a moment
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] StaticMatt:
Nice 1st version. Little easier to swipe through long menus than using volume buttons. Tried it out for a few minutes and works just as described. Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Eric-1987:
Works good just used it!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] iakeco:
Its nice to see the swipe. Makes it a little easier not navigate.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] DConrad2010:
Can we get a screen shot?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] braway:
looks exactly like the other recovery, only that you can also swipe up and down to navigate, instead of using the volume or home/menu buttons...

like i wrote in the notes, i will try to rewrite the ui, to be more touch-friendly

Is it pretty much stable compared to the old CWM beta4 and with touch screen swipes?

-Once you go NOTE, you'd say 4 inches a Joke
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Eric-1987:
I thought it was beta 4 with touch support?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SKyRocKeting727:
That was my question.

-Once you go NOTE, you'd say 4 inches a Joke
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Donjuanal:
Just to be clear

Android is new to me, though I consider my self significantly technologically savvy. When the instructions say:

How to install/update

- cwm update zip only...

Does that mean I am to use the install update.zip method? or do I still flash as normal from the SD Card?

Appreciate all your hard work Braway!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] braway:
yes,

so basically you need to have cwm already installed,

put the zip on your sd, and flash it through cwm
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Phoneguy589:
Working great for me. Swipe up or down instead of using volume keys to change selection and power to select. Thanks for your time and work braway. ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Phoneguy589:
Same way you flash from your sd card on cwm.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Donjuanal:
Thanks

Thank you for clearing that up, I just wanted to be sure before I changed my CWM.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] RMXO:
Awesome work. I was wondering if you plan to make a big font version? It's helpful for guys who have a hard time reading the dinky font.

Thanks again & keep up the good work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] braway:
check if the stock rom also flashes the kernel and recovery,

that would explain the count of 2

doesn't have to say update.zip, the important part is that it is a zip

and yes, you should be able to restore the old backups, because it is exactly the same base, except for the touch navigation

capacitive touch buttons: haven't found a way with the current kernel, I might need to try a different kernel

font: i need to invest some more time into the font, right now I'm using the biggest font provided by cwm

row height: it could be made configurable, but it definitely is not high on my priority list (more like on the bottom of it, sorry) :P
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Rocket42:
Thanks Braway. Just flashed touch recovery....only thing i have done with it so far was dbl tap to reboot but all is well. ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mrscaligirl:
Thank you Braway, just flashed and it works great.. ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] wase4711:
can you flash this over twrp, to get CWM recovery back?

thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bigbiff:
You can flash this zip using TWRP to get CWM back.

Flashed this on my SGH-I717R....it's really nice to have a touch interface. Acheived root using this recovery (via su zip).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] :
Very nice. If I may? I can flash via ROM Manager and everything will be cool?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gunderbum:
stuck

cant get into cwm with button combo.ive tried about every combination no cigar.................help
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rsfinsrq:
Hold both volume up and volume down, then press and hold the power button until you feel the vibration, then let go of the power button while continuing to hold both volume buttons until recovery menu appears.

Edit: You can also install the apk from this thread and it will boot the phone into recovery for you.

braway you planning on updating this to 6.0.0 release?

wanting to try out the speed increase for backups is
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Teufel Hunden:
I think he sold the touch rights to rom manager. Rom manager now show support for the Note and if you DL that cwm it says that there's a recent touch version available but you have to purchase has it :- /

At least I saved this one back when he made it and that it's still on here. Still works perfectly

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] flappjaxxx:
The guy that wrote Rom Manager also wrote CWM. He has an official version of CWM touch that he has had for some time. braway's version is not the same.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Teufel Hunden:
Oh, just looked that way cause he hasn't up graded or been on here for a While now.

Didn't know there were two version other than regular and the twrp thing

I too would love to see this updated. Great work by a great developer.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bhundven:
Another thing you could do, is what I did.

Download cwm touch recovery from: http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager/

(first column is normal cwm, second is touch)

Copy the recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.4.3-quincyatt.img file to your sdcard.

adb shell as root.

dd if=/sdcard/recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.4.3-quincyatt.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p22

(this is the same from recovery or from android)

Reboot to recovery

Enjoy!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Web-head:
Is it possible to make the .img into a flashable zip through cwm or twrp? If not, anyway to do this through terminal emulator?

Never done anything through adb before, and haven't seen a really comprehensive walk through in my searches.

Thanks in advance.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] :
Honestly, you could probably just put the latest recovery img into the cwm zip in OP if you rename it to match what's in the zip.

Adb is pretty easy, just download the android developer tools and mess around.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Teufel Hunden:
Most people don't want to mess with a pc connection and/or screw something up

Personally half the time a pc connection doesn't even work for me

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Web-head:
Interesting idea about swapping the img in braway's zip. May give that a shot. Hopefully doesn't have disastrous consequences lol.

I will also try and figure out adb. Every time I see someone have a question on it, the answer is usually the same. It's easy. Maybe I never see it explained, because it is easy. Just wish I ever see more than that as an explanation though lol.

I'll give it a whirl, I guess.

Thanks for the suggestions.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] area4689:
theres an updated clockworkmod recovery. its version 6.0.0.5 ~ or something similar. is that the same as what you have here? any way you could update it to your thread? thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Hammerfest:
Holy piss!

I wonder if ill be able to start using CWM from the source now!

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr...mmit/a6491201c7ab106c982a951472b9b31713fb5543

I sure hope so! Make no mistake, I love the work others put into a custom CWM so we can have our REAL MicroSD cards instead of the FAKE Internal Memory, but as an update whore, I love flashing the latest and greatest, even something as simple, basic, and overall working as CWM!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Texantx:
Yes; I did with Terminal emulator & It works.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ptclik85:
You said you were able to get it to work by using terminal emulator. Did you include the dd part in the whole process or did you start with if=/? I haven't been able to get it to work for me
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bigbiff:
To flash recovery.img use the command

dd if=/path/to/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p22

Don't forget the extra 2 or you will overwrite bootloader.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] thekrush:
Thanks for the suggestion! Copying the recovery.img into the braway's ZIP file works fine...I tried it with the recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.4.3-quincyatt.img (renaming the file to recovery.img), and reflashing and I'm now on 5.8.4.3. :good:

There is no flashable .zip file for the latest version of cwm touch recovery, but you can make your own.

1- Take the .zip from the 1st page of this thread.

2- Then go to the ROM Manager website, scroll down to Samsung Galaxy Note, and download the cwm 5.8.4.3 touch recovery .img.

http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager/

3- Take the cwm 5.8.4.3 touch recovery .img and rename it to "recovery".

4- Drag it into the .zip from the first page of this thread and replace the original recovery image in the .zip with the cwm 5.8.4.3 touch recovery that you renamed "recovery".

5- Then flash the .zip with the new renamed recovery .img in cwm or twrp and you're done.
