[General Questions and Answers] bogarty:
I've been trying out many different Android SD Roms for some time now on my WinMo 6.5, but they often seem glitchy. I was thinking about flashing MAGLDR because I've heard that MAGLDR roms tend to run smoother. I was also thinking of getting rid of Windows Mobile all together & just flashing a MAGLDR Android rom as my only mobile OS as I think WinMo 6.5 totally sucks! Not sure if WinMo 7.5 is any good either.

QUESTION: Do you think I should flash MAGLDR & if I so, should I just run Android or install WinMo 7.5 & continue using Android SD roms?

More info: I have an HTC HD2 with radio 2.15.50.14 & HARDSPL 2.08 & I am currently using v8.5 of Boxmax's Runny HTC Sensation XL rom HERE.

ANY OPINIONS ON THIS? :)
[HTC One X] milomak:
I've noticed that while the phone connects to my car's bluetooth, the phonebook doesn't show up.

I can't remember whether this was the case before i ran a custom rom. i am guessing that i am asking the question now must mean it works on stock.

could people share their experiences of the phonebook and the rom they are running?

i am currently using leedroid v6.2.0
[HTC One X] BarryH_GEG:
I'm stock on 1.29 and haven't had any issues.
[HTC One X] Snah001:
I am on same ROM and have no issues.

My car is a VAG product and when connecting for the first time it first asks for a 4 digit code which the car supplies.

After putting in this code it will connect.

Then for a second time the phone gives a pop up with the question if you want to give access to the media files of the phone. After pressing OK it will sync the phonebook and call history.

Thats it and it works flawless.

Hope this helps

I have a question.

My phone (samsung galaxy s2 gt 9001) has a generic imei, it is completely diffrent than original number imei under battery.

Phone works fine and I can make calls.

I want to flash phone to android 4.0 but I do wonder if phone will return to original imei after flashing (and let me do only emergency calls - original imei is probably blacklisted) or phone will still keep generic imei and allow me to make all calls.

thank you for your help
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cilex-ger:
Did you make an /efs-Backup?

Did this happen after flashing something or...more information please!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themadba:
You should always back up your EFS folder, which stores your original IMEI. I hope you did, have a look here anyway: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1264021

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
You say your IMEI is probably blacklisted .

Stolen phone ???

A factory reset or flash of new firmware is always the first step to try EFS recovery so yes their is a chance of correct IMEI .

flash clean,stock firmware...an always backup efs folder tht is in good state...

Hi,

On my One-X battery meter is completely inaccurate. Sometimes it sits for hours on one value (e.g. 90%) and then suddenly drops (with no CPU/data activity whatsoever) to for example 80%. This results with very jerky battery use graph (attached mine). I am on 1.29.401.7 and done multiple full discharge/charge cycles, but it does not make any difference.

I have never seen such bad battery meter behavior on any other Andoid phone. Have you got similar problem?
[HTC One X] abc27:
I have the exact same problem actually.
[HTC One X] mickliq:
Same here. It's as if it doesn't update the battery meter when it's in sleep (fifth core running). I suspect it's because of the T3 architecture and power management. As soon as you wake it, after maybe a minute, it updates the battery status...
[HTC One X] Dudditz:
Mines does it. Can sit on a %age for an age then with little use it will plummet.
[HTC One X] Laurentius26:
@Op,

No I didn't notice such a problem on a unrooted One X and with no modifications running the latest OTA update 1.29.401.11.

Did you play with battery apps or did you modify something yourself which could cause this issue? Did you investigate what could cause it?

How long do you have your device, did you install apps? Can you provide more info about it maybe? Do you softreset your device?

Did the problem exist when you bought the device?

Thanks. :)
[HTC One X] aszu:
So it must be general problem then. It happens to me not only in sleep mode, but when browsing the web, etc.

I think these sudden percentage jumps and meter inaccuracy also contribute to all these battery life complains from various people. I was personally shocked when after a few minutes of web browsing battery dropped instantly from 30 to 20%. It looks like crappy battery, but in fact seems to be just dodgy meter...
[HTC One X] aszu:
I have got the phone for almost a week now and I am pretty sure this problem has been there from the very begining. I initially though this is because a couple of full charge / discharge cycles are required to calibrate the meter, but it did not make any difference. My phone is not unlocked, no mods or battery apps. I did not try soft reset though.

It looks to me that meter is somehow not updating during the sleep. When device wakes from sleep, after a couple of minutes value drops significantly. This problem is probably a reason for various false claims that One X does not consume a single percent of battery during the overnight sleep.
[HTC One X] -Vulture-:
Yeah, i have the same thing. Sometimes my battery drops about 2 or 3 percent at once, sometimes 10 percent...pretty annoying.
[HTC One X] Laurentius26:
Thanks for your reply.

I'm new to Android but I do have some Windows Mobile experience.

It's weird to me seeing people having such problems because I realy don't experience it.

My battery meter is constant, also after a night sleep.

Maybe it's because I use my device different as others I don't know, it's strange to see all these reports in XDA forum as the One X to my opinion is a very cool device.

Maybe you could try some battery percentage apps and see if it realy is that insufficient?
[HTC One X] ikeabuchi:
No problems with the battery monitor whatsoever (unrooted) 1.28.161.9
[HTC One X] aszu:
I used your excellent ROMs on my HD2 in dark WM6.5 ages :). I am glad to see you here with One X!

I installed Battery Meter Widget and (if the readings are correct), my One X consumes about 10-15mA during the sleep with Wifi and 3G on. I will keep an eye on the percentage.

Don't get me wrong - besides of erratic GPS and dodgy battery/power management problems, I really love this device.

I really wished that international One X version was based on S4 SoC (superb GPS with GLONASS and great power management as S4 is a 28nm chip). It is such a shame that dodgy Tegra 3 ruins this excellent device...
[HTC One X] DanRZ:
Hello, maybe this behaviour is only due to the voltage sampling/display ...

Someone here says the native battery app was only at 5% precision at display

and it looks like it updates in long time samples too ( 5 minutes ? ) ...

Knowing that Li-Ion goes from 3600 mV ( 0% ) to 4200 mV ( 100% ),

it means 600 mV of voltage variation from empty to full, with 1 mV precision.

So 1 millivolt is 0.2% of battery charge.

The display should be really more precise if all voltage precision was used.

:confused:
[HTC One X] f_padia:
looking at that screenshot you have posted the sudden drops appear to be perfectly aligned to the 'screen on' or 'awake' periods so the most likely (and obvious) cause is that using the phone causes most battery use. I have seen this with many phones, I think its normal. Being in standby doesnt use much power at all but lighting the massive 4.7" screen and running a quad core processor does, so when you use the phone it uses loads more juice... thats my analysis anyway
[HTC One X] aszu:
No, this is different. Drop in fact seem to be related to wake up from deep sleep, but the point is that this drop is massive and instant i.e. battery instantly drops from 30 to 20, bypassing all other percent states in between. Also, I am sure battery state does not update properly in deep sleep in many cases. At some point I left my phone for almost a day alone (wifi, 3g, Gmail and exchange sync, etc) and it did not lose a single percent, but as soon as started using it I observed instant 20% drop.
[HTC One X] d33f:
Same problem here even after hard reset
[HTC One X] santroph:
+1

And I have even worse problem, can anyone help me?

Take a look at my thread (not highjacking yours, just want some help too), my current widget never reads a real value AFAIK.

It stay with -850 for more than an hour at times...

And my battery life is dismal...
[HTC One X] samuelong87:
So this means that seeing no battery discharge throughout the night in sleep mode isn't due to excellent power saving feature of the companion core but is in fact poor battery meter?

And yes, my One X shows fast and huge discharge (3-5% at once) when I use after being in long sleep mode :(
[HTC One X] molio:
I think it too. Phone on sleep with data and sync on for 1 or 2 hours and % don't change. Use it for 2 min. and it suddently goes down by 5/10%

In my opinion the battery meter lacks of accuracy. This brings to inaccurate real time current calculations and wrong information about what's consuming power when we use it. That's bad!
[HTC One X] Nos0x:
I'm also seeing these big drops. For me it seems to happen between 100%-60% battery, battery level will drop anything from 5%-10% chunks at a time. After 60%, it does seem to be more stable and drop in 1-2% increments.

I've recalibrated the battery through CWM a couple of times but still get this issue.
[HTC One X] RogerPodacter:
It almost seems like there's a bug in the code that is causing the fuel gauge to not update.

I can tell you this, I modified other HTC phones battery driver. The nexus one driver for example updates volt, percent, temp, every 50 seconds while the screen is on. When off the sample poll changes to 10 minutes per update. This is real easy to see in the driver code, and you can filter dmesg log for "batt" and see the time stamps do in fact match this.

But the one x looks to be getting hung up on that part. Anyone know if kernel code has been released yet?
[HTC One X] treebill:
Look at this one you can see I had a almost vertical drop while the screen was off

http://img502.imageshack.us/img502/7100/screenshot2012051905480.png
[HTC One X] DanRZ:
Hello, in my opinion i think it's more like :

When you turn screen on, you unlock your telephone, maybe all other applications do something at this moment or even kernel applications and so the battery drops.

In my opinion, i feel that the transition between idle and working is too "hard".

It looks like the core goes from idle ( Tegra 3 Companion doing his job ) directly to the 4 other cores at full speed and instantly ...

The battery doesn't like that so much and for me it can explain that behaviour.

Maybe you should also look at the amps consumption graph ... ;)
[HTC One X] OzanSRC:
I faced with the same situation. I'm gonna get crazy with that huge battery drops. While on Deep sleep my battery drains %20 at 10 hours.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] skywalker311:
I've been on CM9 for about two months and I love it, but I've been hearing good things about AOKP. I used it when it first came out and like it. CM9 was just better at the time. I was just wondering in your opinion what the best kernel to use with it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Nick281051:
Aren't vs threads not allowed? Every phone is different so you just have to try them for yourself.

Also to add, they use the same kernel for the most part
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Virus1x:
NEAK if your willing to take time to configure

Siyah if you want OC

If you don't wanna configure or oc stock
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] skywalker311:
Thanks virus 1x for your 411. I've had n.e.a.k. kernel in my sd card for awhile and never used it. I'm going try it out now. Thanks again for the info.

P.S. this is not a vs thread. Lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] In3rDm0RetHeNu:
First of all to start I haven't needed to flash the kernel cleaning script just wiping the caches worked fine for me. I have tried all three and by far the best is NEAK I usually don't have problems with it. I have undervolted and set it to 200 - 1000 MHz. I'll post a screenshot of my voltage control in a little. Also when you flash NEAK I personally recommend that you take the init.d files out of AOKP and make sure they're in you system/etc/init.d/. I didn't keep the first boot though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Nick281051:
Comparison thread==vs thread. Everyone's device reacts differently to different kernels
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] votinh:
In your title you said "best kernel", by the nature of it, it is a comparison.

If there is "best", there must be a "second best" and there have to be a "least best" or "worst best" or .............. unless there is only ONE and if there is only one, then there is NO NEED to ask which is "best"
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Biporch:
Oh boy, we got a philosopher here.

And Nick, you need to calm those guts of you down. All I see you do in each single post you have commented is bash it on people that are just seeking help/ a simple answer.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MotoMudder77:
This. the only thing that matters.

Only way is to try them and see how they work for your device. But NEAK, and/or SIYAH have been known to cause issues with Brightness and other things.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Red5:
A comparison thread is a versus thread. Every phone reacts differently for kernels, just like it does for roms. We dont allow "what the best rom" threads either for this very purpose.

Also, as you can see by post #8, these kinds of threads dont last long because of crap like this.

I've included the newest Apex launcher that was released today. Make sure you don't have any updates to the launcher installed from the market if you want the themed version.

I also added in a percent battery that I custom made. You can see an example in the icon previews screenshot. The original non-percent battery can be found in post 3 if you fancy that.

Not sure what I'm doing wrong, but I flashed in rom manager and when it reboots, it says Android is updating.... Then a black screen. Have to remove battery and reflash the rom to get it to boot

I'm checking out HD Widgets...using the same option but my High and Low weather for the day has an Up and Down arrow. How did you get yours to display H and L?
[HTC Rezound] zhp pilot:
My guess would they changed it in the newer version. The one shown there was v2.3.3. I don't have it on my phone when I use sense roms but I saw there was an update right before I took that rom off.
[HTC Rezound] Sleek69:
Absolutely love the theme. This is the only way I can stand any desensed roms because our phones are red, yet the devs feel the need to make the roms blue...

In the next update can you fix the font color in icon folders on the home screen. It still appears blue instead of red or white.
[HTC Rezound] zhp pilot:
Sure thing. Has there been any updates to apex on the market since 2.2 was posted?

[HTC Rezound] zhp pilot:
I know what you mean. However, I wanted to keep the same feel as ics and there are different shades of blue used for halo images. So I tried to keep the same variance with the red.
[HTC Rezound] wildfirewolf:
Hi zhp_pilot,

I flashed this today and I have to say it looks absolutely stunning.

If you get a chance in a future update, I noticed that the stock News/Weather widgets highlight with blue when you tap them. I also noticed this with redditastic. I'm not sure if there is a generic hex value somewhere that gets used across widgets.

Thanks for the great work!
