Hard key backlight functionality is altered in the rom by the BLN mod, as detailed in this Rootzwiki post: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/20362-mod-bln-for-droid-charge/

Daily briefing was removed as bloat (along with a lot of other things).

You can disable BLN and add back in any bloat you want, as well as a do a lot of other things, using TweakTools. Look in the second post in the thread for details.
[Verizon Droid Charge] o0BlacknesS0o:
I'm trying out this core droid theme and it's not too bad. However, I was wondering if someone could take the radio signal and wifi signal icons from the black and blue theme and put them into a cwm file cuz I think they look much better

Droid Charge running Tweaked 2.0 w/ FP1-PBJ
[Verizon Droid Charge] ffd173:
Thank you!!

I disabled bln and I restored daily briefing. All is well now.

One other question, how is your battery life? Mine seems to drain quickly. No mods that would affect it.

Any suggestions are welcome.
[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
I'm getting pretty good battery life now that I have everything configured and I'm back to normal usage. OC'ed/UV'ed with Voltage Control on tonsit's kernel.

Are you entering deep sleep? That's the first thing to look at.
[Verizon Droid Charge] ffd173:
I don't know. I'm oc'd to 1200 , but not undervolted. I don't know what you mean by deep sleep.
[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
Deep sleep is an ultra-power saving CPU state that the kernel drops into when there is no work to do and nothing has a wakelock. Download CPU Spy from the Play Store. It should show the majority of your screen off time as Deep Sleep. If it doesn't, there is something preventing your phone from sleeping properly.
[Verizon Droid Charge] ffd173:
I'm getting 78% deep sleep

My battery life is still not great at all. Any reccomendations on voltages or overclocks to use?

Thanks again!!!
[Verizon Droid Charge] bvsbutthd101:
how long have you been running this ROM? It took my phone about a week to get really good battery life. But for that first week, man was the battery life terrible. Amazing now!!!

For my idle clock (400mhz, 200mhz, and 100mhz) I have it set to -75. Didn't change the the voltage for anything higher.
[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
I'm OC'ed to 1400 w/ smartassV2 governor. My voltage offsets from low to high are: -100/-100/-100/-75/-75/-50/-50/-25.

Undervolting and overclocking are very hardware dependent though...what works for some people will not work for others.
[Verizon Droid Charge] ffd173:
I've been using this rom for less than a week. With this kernel for a couple of days. I'll give it some time.

How do I reset the battery stats again?

Thanks!

[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
For my battery from right now, according to BBS, I've been off the charger for 1h 54m, awake for 1h, have had screen on for 5m, and Pandora running for 54m, and my battery is at 94%. So, you can use that as a gauge. When I'm not running Pandora, it drains a lot slower.

---------- Post added at 02:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:01 PM ----------

A couple more things to consider as well:

1) Mobile data uses a lot more power than Wifi. If you can stay on Wifi, your battery will last a lot longer.

2) Signal strength has a huge impact on battery. If you consistently have 1-2 bars, you'll be draining battery a lot faster than if you have 4-5 bars/
[Verizon Droid Charge] THEbigSWEEN:
Signal strength is a HUGE factor, because where I live and work I get 3G and low signal and battery will last about 8 hours, but if I'm downtown for the weekend, 4G and 5 bars, it can last up to 15-20 hours. I definitely have an extra battery considering most of my time is spent with low signal. Turning data off altogether when not using it helps a lot too.
[Verizon Droid Charge] JihadSquad:
Actually wifi uses way more power than mobile data while it is idle. While you are downloading something, efficiency is either 4g>wifi>3g or wifi>4g>3g (not exactly sure but the time to download is a big factor hence 4g might be ahead), but while you are idle and have decent service, 3g is definitely better on your battery.

Sorry if the above was confusing to read.
[Verizon Droid Charge] piizzadude:
Well I am outta here.

I had a few minor issues with the Charge, and they offered a Rezound as a replacement. i jumped at it.

The reason I posted in here is because I wanted to thank the regular contributors in here more than anyone. You guys (maybe girls, who knows) have made the Charge a GREAT experience over the last few months.

Special thanks to DW for making such a great ROM. I hope you will continue, "experimenting" with your ROMs.

If anyone is interested, I am going to be selling 2 generic 3600 EXT batteries with doors, 1 OEM battery with door, a case and a wall charger in the marketplace within the next few hours....

Thank you again and here is a upside for you all (besides me leaving) within a month of me dumping my Fascinate, they had an ICS ROM and CM7....

Scanning SD Card?

Anyone experience random times when the phone acts like it just rebooted and it scans the SD card? I get this a few times a week.....
[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
You just described a hotboot. Some others have had this. I get this on other TSM roms, but haven't on this one. What lockscreen are you using?
[Verizon Droid Charge] JihadSquad:
That's called a hotboot. See if you can get a logcat of when it happens and send it to dwitherell.

http://rootzwiki.com/topic/23470-if-you-think-providing-a-logcat-for-the-devs-is-too-hard-read-this/

Here are instructions if you need help.
[Verizon Droid Charge] bvsbutthd101:
Alright, I have my CPU governor set to smartassV2. Once in a while it switches to conservative. When it does this, I can tell it bogs my phone down. Anyone else experience this. This isn't limited to this ROM in perticular. Happened on the last one as well.
[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
It happens when you mount the phone to USB on a PC.
[Verizon Droid Charge] bvsbutthd101:
wow, thanks. Wonder why it does that.
[Verizon Droid Charge] JihadSquad:
Disregard
[Verizon Droid Charge] THEbigSWEEN:
I believe I read somewhere that it's something to do with PBJ. Not sure why though.
[Verizon Droid Charge] o0BlacknesS0o:
It might have to do with the phone not drawing as much juice when connected to pc compared to ac...i have a profile in setcpu specifically for charging with usb and it maintains smartass and the 800 mhz that I have it set

Droid Charge running Tweaked 2.0 w/ FP1-PBJ
[Verizon Droid Charge] dwitherell:
For those suffering from hotboots, there are two CWM Mods now available on tweaktools that may help. These both increase the dalvik heapsize (from 64mb to either 80 or 96) through a build.prop change. I would recommend starting with the 80 variant first, then try the 96 version if problems continue. I hope this helps!
[Verizon Droid Charge] Tazer2death:
dwitherell you are so damn reliable! I JUST switched back to eclipse last night to wait and see if a fix came about and here it is like 4 hours later. Thanks!
[Verizon Droid Charge] indyssee:
If it matters or not, I was one that had hotboots while on aosp lockscreen. After I switched to the circles lockscreen, I haven't had one since. This has been incredibly stable and the best, by far, ROM I've used during my several months with the Charge. Thanks, dwitherell.
[Verizon Droid Charge] JihadSquad:
Same here. Did you figure out anything from that logcat, dwitherell?
[Verizon Droid Charge] dwitherell:
Sort of, but I suspect I don't have enough pieces yet to see the bigger picture. That being said - my hunch is it deals with the lockscreen music widget. This makes sense with the AOSP-has-issues-and-Circles-doesn't reports as well, though I would expect you could broaden this to be lockscreens-with-the-widget-have-issues-and-those-without-it-don't. I haven't had the time, but I plan on trying out a music-widget-free variant to see if this is the case - but the hope is these (the two CWM Mods) will help out in the meantime.
[Verizon Droid Charge] JihadSquad:
When I tried Rotary I got 1 hotboot and switched back. I will try to get one later tonight if I remember.
[Verizon Droid Charge] AndroidCraig:
If it helps, I'm on Rotary lock screen and get hotboots also. I'll see about getting a logcat and sending it on.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jco23:
has anyone with the hotboots tried disabling the music widget on the lockscreen?

mine is enabled, and right now it controls the Google Music Play app. my only other music player is winamp.

I do recall having issues re-installing the Google Music app after switching to this ROM when restoring via TB (and when attempting to download via the Play market). I eventually got it to work after completely uninstalling the music app, rebooting the phone, and then re-installing the app again.

I have yet to experience a hotboot.
[Verizon Droid Charge] JihadSquad:
I use the AOSP music app instead (https://play.google.com/store/apps/...251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5qcnRzdHVkaW8ubXVzaWMiXQ..)
[Verizon Droid Charge] blahdc:
I am using the Honeycomb unlock screen.

I will try this out, thanks for the help!

It looks like the consesus is that the hotboot issue is related to the type of lockscreen. I am going to try keeping my honeycomb and install the Tweaktools mod and start running logcat. Will report back with findings....

On another note, I love tweaktools!!
[Verizon Droid Charge] bgorrell:
Had an odd occurance this morning. I kept hearing an occasional pop or click. Took a while to figure out, but the speaker was stuck "on". If I held the external speaker to my ear I heard a constant static and the pops. I hadn't used any audio apps since an earlier reboot.

I used go launcher to close all active apps and it went away. But, I didn't see anything running that should be using audio. Really strange.

Does anyone else have a faint static sound from the speaker? Just curious if I'm the only one.

I did save messages from OS Monitor. Will have to look at it later.
[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
I've gotten the occasional pop-click sounds after a reboot on rare occasion for a long time across several roms. I've never investigated further since a reboot has always fixed it.
[Verizon Droid Charge] PaulN64007:
I would recommend doing a total wipe and starting over and odin EP4D then take the update to FP1. After that odin cwm then flash Tweaked 2.0
[Verizon Droid Charge] Farabomb:
I agree, sucks having to rebuild everything but it's time for a change. I just slapped in 2.0 to get a taste and I'll go home and do it right tonight.

To both phones.
[Verizon Droid Charge] bvsbutthd101:
Where's the download for Stock EP4D? Or should I just restore my phone back to factory with this, let OTA update to FP1, Odin CWM then flash Tweaked 2.0? I want to do this right.
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
Yes, you can use that or this:

*** Stock EP4D (Factory rom/kernel/radio) flash with ODIN:

http://www.imnuts.org/odin-packages/ - ODIN

look for this " EP4 (Android 2.3) CI510_VZW_EP4_ALL_ONE-LTE-CP_REV03_user_CL706183_ship.tar.md5 "
[Verizon Droid Charge] piizzadude:
There you go

EDIT: nevermind, use the ODIN packages above....less steps
[Verizon Droid Charge] projekt8e:
lol, one of these days I will actually follow the instructions. The flash from 1.4 to 2.0 worked fine, but when I tried adding the kernel after that it just locked up at the samsung logo.

Taking the steps to get to FP1 OTA now like it says. ha
[Verizon Droid Charge] jco23:
lost wifi
[Verizon Droid Charge] dwitherell:
What kernel?
[Verizon Droid Charge] BlackHoleSlam:
you need the stock FP1 kernel to retain wifi if you use any other kernel on FP1 no wifis for you
[Verizon Droid Charge] pizzle11:
i upgraded and failed on first few attempt too. is there an fp1 kernel and an fp1H kernel?
[Verizon Droid Charge] PaulN64007:
Read the OP it's there
[Verizon Droid Charge] sasquatch080:
Wow Dwitherrell! I was simply hoping for the music toggle from lockscreen, but you added a bonus with the volume keys hack! Super thank you! Btw cwm rom only zip file works great. Awesome bootanimation, cus I'm running pbj! No need for wifi. Now off to OC with the pedal to the metal!
[Verizon Droid Charge] PaulN64007:
Glad you are enjoying my boot animation :)
[Verizon Droid Charge] jco23:
I used the "Tweaked v2 ROM only" link under CWM.... then I tried installing the "Stock FP1H kernel" via CWM (4.0.1.4). and now it's bricked (Samsung logo).

tried wiping everything, mounted system, etc... ODIN next I guess? anything I can do?

I need WiFi.

thanks
[Verizon Droid Charge] projekt8e:
For some reason, the cwm version is giving me a hell of a time. Keeps locking up at the samsung logo. I have followed all of the proper steps these last few attempts... even went back to ep4d stock, upgraded then flashed and still nothing.

trying the odin version now. maybe my cwm version was corrupt? Not sure how it would upgrade fine from tweak1.4 though.

Damnit, I'm going to get there eventually.

*EDIT* Odin worked for me.
[Verizon Droid Charge] bwheelies:
You are not bricked. Starting fresh works best from Odin.
[Verizon Droid Charge] bvsbutthd101:
Alright, whats going on. I just got done restoring my phone back factory. Let OTA update my phone. Went to install Recovery through odin, it passes. Went to boot into CWM but it just goes to stock recovery. Do I need to be rooted first? Meaning install Tweaked 2.0 using Odin?
[Verizon Droid Charge] piizzadude:
As said before, use the stock package in ODIN, do the OTA to EP1H then do Tweaked, you will save all kinds of headaches

---------- Post added at 05:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:47 PM ----------

Yes, the kernel will overwrite the CWM everytime. install tweaked, then CWM through ODIN and you will be fine
[Verizon Droid Charge] bvsbutthd101:
Opps, my bad. I extracted the the file i downloaded, forgot I didn't need to do that. Working now lol

So i just flashed 2.0 two days ago and for the most part all is well, the only issue ive come across is on occassion i get some lag exiting apps like browser, email, etc. It will exit the app to an empty home screen which stays blank for a few sec. til the widgets n shortcuts reappear. Its not a super huge deal, but if anyone else has the issue or a solution i wouldnt mind a fix. Thanks

This only happens to me on draw something and zenonia 4, and it happens on tweaked and eclipse.

[Verizon Droid Charge] bgorrell:
Seems I'm having the opposite problem. The speaker stays on after a reboot. I tried closing each running app individually and it stayed on. I then did "close all" from Go Launcher's running app list. It stayed on at first, but then went off when I backed out to the home screen. Something in the startup is causing it to get "stuck" on.

I checked messages in OS Monitor again and found references to "wm8994_samsung.c". I'm guessing these messages might have something to do with it:

Installed the HotbootFix80 but seems to have made it worst. I am getting hotboots almost everytime i turn my phone on. I have saved the log but not sure if it is safe to post the txt.....
[Verizon Droid Charge] Reilly1812:
Just an FYI, not sure if it helps, but this is exactly what I get. Could it be an FP1 kernel issue? I'm running stock rooted debloated FP1 rom/radios/kernel with ADW launcher. This never happened with EP4 with same setup.

Me thinks you are on an earlier variant of the tonsit-compiled kernel - a newer one has resolved this issue. Look where the last was found, flash it, and logcats should work again.

Ah nice, thanks.
[Verizon Droid Charge] xfearxphoenixx:
I was offered an iPhone 4S replacement and jumped ship as well. I must say though that Tweaked v2.0 was the best rom I ever used on the Charge and that while running it I never had not one hotboot. And that was with using various lockscreens and the music lockscreen controls. It took me the longest time to decide if I was gonna do the trade because the phone was running so good. Thank you dwitherell for making such a great rom. You outdid yourself with this rom. God bless. Also it looks like Charge users will not get ICS update through Verizon anytime soon.

[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
Just had my first hotboot that I didn't cause. I was running the circles lockscreen, so it was definitely not related to the music controls. I was, unfortunately, not in a position that I could get a logcat (was driving in Atlanta rush hour traffic).
[Verizon Droid Charge] BleedsOrangeandBlue:
love love love the stability and features of this ROM.

To add to the hotboot discussion, I've only gotten them on rotary, both with tweaked and other ROMs running TSM. Using the Rings lockscreen, I have zero issues.

Thank you so much for the ROM dwitherell.
[Verizon Droid Charge] dwitherell:
Hmm... Now that one makes little sense, as I pretty much left that lockscreen alone as it came stock with fp1h. I don't know what to make of that... So much for thinking a pattern was beginning to emerge. Anything notable running on the phone, or recent changes?
[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
I had Waze running with Pandora in the background...pretty much my normal commute configuration. I'm willing to chalk this one up to a random fluke.
[Verizon Droid Charge] dwitherell:
Well, an unsettling fluke nonetheless. Keep me posted if the fluke returns - hopefully it won't.
[Verizon Droid Charge] ffd173:
Hey guys. When running tweaked 2 and fp1h custom kernel, I can't get tweaktools to change my boot animation.

I switched to the blue plasma boot and it changed fine. Now I am trying to change to another through TT and it downloads and boots into CWM and everything seems to go just fine. But when it reboots I still have the plasma boot. It won't change. I am trying to go to stockdroid animation.

Any ideas??
[Verizon Droid Charge] jco23:
have you tried the "old fashion" way and just simply copy the zip file as "sanim.zip" to the system/media folder?
[Verizon Droid Charge] ffd173:
OK. So here is what I tried.

I copied the droid default zip file from the sd card/ tweaktools folder to the system/media folder. I then deleted the sanim.zip file there. I renamed the defaultdroid zip to sanim.zip.

I rebooted and I got the Samsung logo and then NO boot ani. Then my lock screen.

I then used term emulator and tweaktools to flash the tweaked tv boot animation. It did it's thing with CWM and rebooted and the tweaked boot came up. I think that the default droid zip is damaged or bad in tweaktools.

I'm not sure, but it seems that way.

Also, when I boot up, it goes to my lock screen and when I unlock, it takes a little while for me to be able to use the phone. It shows the main screen, but I can't go screen to screen or open any apps. It takes a few minutes sometimes. All I am able to do in that few minutes is long press home and get task manager. I can clear ram, but it doesn't help. Eventually, it works. Something must be hanging it up. But I have no idea what.

Any ideas on this one??? Thanks!!

---------- Post added at 11:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:00 AM ----------

One more thing.

How do I put audio with the boot or shutdown animation?

I would like to put something with the boot. Maybe later with the shutdown.

Thaks! :D
[Verizon Droid Charge] bwheelies:
Do the boot animations have enable/disable in tweak tools? Maybe disable one then enable the other?
[Verizon Droid Charge] PaulN64007:
Go into /system/media and delete sanim.zip. Then go into tweaktools and install the droid boot animation. I'll talk to tonsit about adding a line to the cwm zip that will delete the sanim.zip for people that flash it in the future. As for the boot animation sound that goes into /system/etc and name the file PowerOn.wav Shutdown sound goes in /system/media/audio/ui and is named shutdown.ogg
[Verizon Droid Charge] quarky42:
Did I see correctly that this ROM does not include a basic file manager / file browser?

Sure, you might say "just download one from the market"...and that would be great... if I had cell phone signal out here.

If I had a file manager built in, I could install all the APKs that I have / need so that when I return to an area that has service I'm already done mucking around with the phone.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jco23:
if you have "my files" or root explorer, you could have backed them up via TB...
[Verizon Droid Charge] sasquatch080:
You can google a file explorer apk from pc. Transfer to phone, then you'll have a file explorer no matter what rom you flash.
