I think that the app needs to be moved anyway because thats where it is located on transformer Prime. The fact that service starts is good, but it might not be all there is to it. It might be missing some configuration or some other app to take advantage of that service.

Think of getting audio drivers to run, but still not having speakers connected.
[HTC One X] casca:
I thought that too, but a friend made me realise that the OTA had been made for while for sure, so there would be no way in that 1.28 OTA to do a fix for sure.

When the next OTA comes, we will be sure of it.

WHAT THE **** DUDE!? DO YOU ACTUALLY KNOW OF YOU ARE SPEAKING OF?!

Paul O'Brien is not just another guy in a forum, you should google it first before making a ridiculous post.

Just for you to know:

If your one X is rooted you can thank Paul. It wasn't even out yet and it was already rooted by him.

If your one X has interim recovery you can thank Paul, he made it.

He's one of the guys that made Android+Android devices, the way they are today.

Show some respect.
[HTC One X] itchy67x:
There is no real prof that battery live get's better after moving d apk only opinions.

But im realy happy for anyone who thinks that the phone is now better with another sensless running system service :p.
[HTC One X] EddyOS:
Chances are it's poorly coded apps not optimised for Android 4/Tegra 3 yet that are the cause of the power drain issues. But people don't care about that...
[HTC One X] schriss:
Maybe, but nvidia guys said you don't have to code for that, all the 5th core magic is done on the chip.
[HTC One X] MartijnMM:
Did i miss a memo?
[HTC One X] 131313:
A little off topic :

Does any of you guys know how I can get around the charging issue with that temproot-file?

It bothers me more that I run out of juice when I am rooted and turn off my phone to charge quickly than battery-life itself 'cause it is always not enough!!!

Thanks for the hints.

Cheers

Edit: Paul is a cool guy only he forgets to mention (or I probably missed it?) on his website that you brick your phone once you use his file and turn it off while you charge.
[HTC One X] riemervdzee:
I think this post is quite related:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=25037004&postcount=138

Instead of bashing the skulls of eachother, how about some proof and .apk research?
[HTC One X] riemervdzee:
Don't get me wrong, I think the apk is quite a hoax and there is a good reason why it got removed.

The 10%-20% people were saying is probably just the placebo effect, or the fact that the battery gets better after each recharge.

What I tried to say is, all these talks in discussions like these don't suffice. "Shut up talking and show me the code" :)
[HTC One X] paulobrien:
The APK shouldn't be in the /system/bin - no question - but HTC says the functionality it provides is replicated elsewhere so it makes no difference if you move it into /system/app.

P
[HTC One X] EddyOS:
Cheers for chipping in, Paul. Hope all's good in Seattle!

Any updates coming soon? ;)
[HTC One X] plun:
Well this service IS active with an ASUS Transformer Prime

This is before and after this service is running

The Transformer then got three profiles for how to control "The Beast".....

Placebo ??

OT but fun....:D

[HTC One X] EddyOS:
But that app on the One X isn't meant to be there. As Paul said, there's services elsewhere doing the job already so the apk is pointless
[HTC One X] plun:
Well, I strongly believe that this process not is "pointless"......

But it might be so that it is connected with "profiles" as with the Transformer.

---------- Post added at 05:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:19 PM ----------

Well, this code is a big secret...;)
[HTC One X] lawrence750:
well if HTC have made their own service do the same thing, and auto change profiles when necessary even, then yes it would be pointless (on the one x, asus probably didn't add in their own code for this , whereas by the sounds of it htc have..). remember asus and htc are different companies ;)
[HTC One X] plun:
Ok.... for me this statement about this process is rather strange, both ASUS and HTC uses this nVidia-chip and nVidia-engineers/knowledge.
[HTC One X] riemervdzee:
No **** sherlock, it is a famous phrase ;) It means that having arguments is just pointless when it comes to programmed behaviour. It would be better if one either opens up the apk or benchmark it.

Your stats were quite interesting; but if HTC stated it is programmed somewhere else and even remove it from the newest builds, I guess that having the service running doesn't apply for the HTC One X.
[HTC One X] plun:
Well... I am just a happy user and not a developer.

This service IS active with an ASUS Transformer Prime (for unknown reasons) and terrible misplaced with an HOX.

Also look at my battery widget screenshot.... no crazy drains...
[HTC One X] gurkburk92:
You've moved the APK to the right folder?

You've stopped seeing those rollercoaster battery drops in the battery widget?

Oh the irony. People taking a "famous" guys word for something which he did not add any facts with.
[HTC One X] EddyOS:
That's on the ASUS - different device mate ;)

You believe what you want to, the rest of us know the facts
[HTC One X] treebill:
True but same chip lol after the "fix" isnt so much better but I get a steady battery drain rather then sudden drops.

If it does nothing it should still be in the right place doing nothing lol.
[HTC One X] EddyOS:
The point is it shouldn't have been in the ROM full stop - that's what I'm getting at...HTC have apparently already written their own implementation so the apk is redundant. Now, with it being in /system/bin, it may have caused issues with their version of it but moving it to /system/app probably just means the HTC version runs correctly
[HTC One X] plun:
How can you be so sure about that..... ??

I do NOT believe that HTC is capable to write something about an nVidia-chip. No Way !

ASUS is not..... unbelievable "****storms" within the Prime forum...:p
[HTC One X] EddyOS:
I'm not sure, hence the use of the word apparently. All I'm saying is Paul wouldn't say it's not needed if it was - he's not like that (not matter what 'some' people think)
[HTC One X] plun:
Well...maybe Paul is wrong ?? ;)

ASUS is a large company and "The Beast" has caused some major trouble for them..:rolleyes:
[HTC One X] plun:
Yep... he is great (Paul) but in this case I am not sure ! ;)
[HTC One X] joshnichols189:
Paul heard it from HTC.
[HTC One X] bobsie41:
You trust HTC??
[HTC One X] riemervdzee:
Well yeah. I actually recently bought a phone from them... ;)
[HTC One X] kruppin:
Exactly. Ofc HTC will lie in this case not to seem stupid enough to have misplace an apk.. (Or maybe he didn't talk to a dev, just a PR guy who didn't know what he was talking about) I can almost promise by next update the file will be in the right directory. If like some here said, that HTC made they're own version, then the APK wouldn't be there at all. and I doubt they would even do that, seeing how nvidia already made it.

I think however it's wierd nvida use a android service like this when they can just code the same function in the kernel instead. Much more reliable. But maybe this file doesn't actually to that much (so it needn't be that reliable), but it must do something either way. :p
[HTC One X] Albert Poon:
Within the apk, there are game profiles. It will be difficult to update when new games are out if the code is written within the kernel.
[HTC One X] Diamondback:
I told this mike already a few days ago. Even if the service is running, it doesn't do anything.

The code itself contains quite a few log calls, none of them are called at any time.

For the "why is the file in /system/bin?"... It may sound stupid but developers usually tend to not delete stuff they are testing but to move it.

It actually is pretty possible that the apk was moved to /bin to disable it temporarly while testing and then was forgotten there.

I am happy finally someone with a higher grade of reputation confirms my findings. :)
[HTC One X] EddyOS:
Thank you :) Pretty much what I've been trying to say all along
[HTC One X] gurkburk92:
How do you know ? Did he post another twitter message ?

cause his first twitter message didnt say anything relevant.

This is more and more leaning towards my side guys. Theres not been proven any facts that its a hoax. But there is on the other hand "Plun" in this forum, which has bettere battery life with the moved APK to the correct folder.
[HTC One X] EddyOS:
Paul has been in Seattle with HTC all week having discussions/feedback about the One series...

And Plun has been saying his ASUS has the service running (and posting screenshots about it)...nothing about the One X

So we now have a forum Mod/recognised dev on here AND Paul both saying it's not needed...you still don't believe them?
[HTC One X] hamdir:
well isn't this apk related to the three power options you get on the T Prime? economy, balanced and performance, those options allows you to control both heat and battery consumption

its puzzling why HTC didn't include such options especially with a power hungry beast like the T3! the same options we already have on the single core ultra cool snapdragon2 Sensation XL :mad:

I will gladly lock my One X to 1.3Ghz, better for heat and battery
[HTC One X] Niiceg:
Yeap, I want to have these options, too. My battery life is terible. HTC should work this out as fast as possible.
[HTC One X] Albert Poon:
To be honest, I dont find HOX' battery life horrible. I used Desire, Incredible S , Sensation and EVO 3D before and HOX' battery life is better than all of them, and I am still at 1.26 without apk moved. To be exact, I am still using stock ROM without unlock/root.
[HTC One X] nativestranger:
I think the consensus is battery life is fantastic if your phone is mostly idle. Only waking up the phone for calls or the occasional checking of email/ facebook. But its a little below average if you are a heavy user offering only between 2.5-3 hr of dislay time when running power hungry apps like games or browser on 3g.
[HTC One X] casca:
+1 to that... well in resume we have now moved the apk to start an aditional service that does not nothing besides adding battery consumption? is that it?

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Solar.Plexus:
It's worth a try to re-root. I don't believe I've ever seen that error before. You have the 16GB NT, correct?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] levioconnell12:
Yes i have a 16gb NT
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] myl0h:
I'm just throwing out a wild guess, but it looks like you don't have superuser on the device at all, which means it's prob a stock device and haven't rooted before. Am I correct on that? I did a double take, and noticed that you rooted the device before..did the nook update itself? Do you still have root access?

If you have an sd card, you can write the sd card to boot CWM (found here) and install CM7 from there, or else you have root the device to get CWM on it and then install cm7 that way
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] levioconnell12:
I do have super user and have rooted my NT
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] myl0h:
If you can get to your app manager, either through hidden settings app or es file explorer, try clearing data on superuser

This app is used to communicating with friends and anybody of that nature.With Mobile Network you can text a bunch of friends and family the same message at the same time.This is really helpful when you have planned an event and you are in a rush trying to get in touch with everyone and you don't want to continue to type the same message when you have typed it almost 100 times.This could get annoying and dangerous when you are driving.With this app just type the message and choose to send the message to then you are done.No dangerous accidents when driving or anything of that nature.

ICS Smooth Ice

But I'm having a lot of problems with it. I don't know if it's unique to that specific ROM or what. For example, using Phone is very shoddy at best; it takes forever to open and each button press has a lot of lag. Contacts typically crashes right away. For some reason, apps like Rdio that use lockscreen player controls don't show up on the lockscreen. Lots of apps like WidgetLocker force close from start. Just lots of little quirks all of the OS as well, responsiveness issues and freezing. I haven't done anything unusual to the ROM, just stock latest version of it.

I just want as close to a base ICS experience as possible (although maybe with CRT lock... I love that lol). Is there a more stable/faster/better ROM for ICS or am I going to have problems anywhere? I read around but I still have a hard time really grasping what I'm going to get where and I was hoping some more experienced people could maybe send me in the right direction.

Never seen a single one in the wild outside of employees at stores. About 2 months back I brought my GSM into a T-Mobile store and it was the first they had ever seen also.

I do spend most of my time on a college campus though, so it's mostly dominated with dumbphones, iPhones (TONS), and random high-end Androids (mostly SGSII).

"Really likes" her phone...but wants a new one.

Me:

Uh...have you thought about an iPhone (I know, ya'll are going to hate me on this one...but if someone doesn't disable bluetooth when not in use...has wifi on while not connected to a network...stock launcher...and a picture of her kid as her wallpaper...ya, she's not exactly tech-savvy).

Her:

Ya, I don't like iPhones. Droids are better.

Me:

Razr. Get the Razr.

Her:

What about that Galaxy Droid you keep going on and on about?

Me:

(Resisting the Android/Droid argument) Eh. Not really something you'd be into, I promise.

She didn't buy it.

Got the Nexus. And returned it a few days later for the Razr.

(Damn I'm good).

Other than that...no.

Not a single one.

Literally every single other person that I work around has an iPhone.

Not joking. Her...with her stock Razr. Me...with my Unlocked...Rom'd...Kernel'd...Tweaked-the-hell-out. And a bunch of iPhone owners who couldn't tell me anything hardware related about their phones if I asked. (Except maybe that it has a "retina" display...lol).

I have seen none. Verizon Northern VA here. I usually don't go around showing off my phone so I would not notice it unless it was in the same company and probably inside as well.

When I bought mine in Reston VA, I mentioned to the guy that I had been waiting for it since last October - he said that they had sold all that they had in stock in every previous shipment (I waited about 2 weeks) and said that it was popular.

I have seen at least 2 dozen Razors though. (something about buy one phone get one free on Verizon), the numerous droids, and 10 million iphones.

I frequent UVA's campus about once every 6 weeks and see almost exlusively iphones, although I would expect their IT degree seekers are probably leaning more toward android at this point.

I have had 3 different people ask if my Galaxy Nexus was the "new iphone."

I have also never seen a Galaxy Note either.
