Just curious.. What possible effect would that app have..

Not that its a bad idea.. I've already started searching the market for an app like that...

Tasker would be good app... Yes??

But in your case what are the probability that the screen will come on..

If its in ur pocket.. You'll first have to do really well to Press the Power button and even then it will only go to the lockscreen.. And some even if it unlocks only then some problem will occur..

Sad thing is it happens to me sometimes.. :(

Keep this thread alive.. There's gotta be some solution :p:p

Cheers
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tri0xinn:
For me it would most be when I'm running.. I like to look at my pace occasionally.. if screen times out I gotta hit power/unlock then be careful I don't touch the screen and pause my run or do something.. Also music and vids(netflix).. or if I hand my phone to someone to watch a video or picture I took or to look at something.. when handing it over they always tend to touch the screen and pause or scrub the video.. especially grandma! :)

What are the the major difference between 2.2 and 2.3, besides the kernel and other software stuff?

boot image, emmc, partition table, that kind of stuff.

Also why exactly do we need to downgrade via the official to switch the kernal? Does the official update make modifications to other stuff that CMW can't?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] fjsferreira:
Major difference is one Android version up. The looks of the UI are completely different, but under the hood you won't notice too much difference.

Regarding kernels, you only need to change stock 2.2 to 2.3.5 and vice versa when you install ROMs based on .32 and .35 kernels respectively. Ics also needs official 2.3.5 installed first too. There's no way to install a .35 kernel based ROM over a .32 ROM, you'll have no network service.

The underline reasons are too technically for me but that's how it works :-)

One last thing, if you plan to only use stock ROMs, keep the 2.2, the 2.3.5 betas are a pile of crap.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] typci:
Thanks, but what I'm trying to find out is the under the hood stuff. I can get 2.3.5 working, and I can usually get 2.2 working. However I can't get 2.2 custom roms to boot, they all get stuck at the boot logo, and I'm trying to figure out what the problem is. 2.3.5 custom roms work, and 2.2 stock roms work, but 2.2 custom roms don't work.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] fjsferreira:
Make sure you use correct cwm version. For .32 ROMs, you need cwm 5.0.2.6, for .35, you need 5.0.5.4. It has to do with changes in partition scheme between .3á and .35 ROMs, if I'm not mistaken.

Sent from my U8800
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] typci:
Thanks for the advice.

I was thinking along similar lines, but backwards. I had been using 5.0.2.6 and thought maybe I needed to switch to 5.0.5.4. Neither work. I've got a feeling it is partition scheme related. I just got done fixing my partitions after the "resize the internal sd" thing messed up at least my data and internal sd. Maybe I haven't fixed it completely.

I also found that installing .32 MIUI causes something to change in my data partition. Before installation, ubuntu sees my data partition (via pink screen) and can open it. After installation, ubuntu won't open the partition, saying I don't have permission, or something like that. After I double check it, I'll take the question over to the appropriate thread. Haven't checked other custom roms to see if they're doing the same thing. Maybe they all are and that is what is causing them to be stuck at boot.

Hi, i've installed NFS Shift on my WT19a with official ICS.

It's simple: game works, but the touchscreen is unresponsive.

What can i do?

EDIT:

DAFUQ! Now i just realized that if i put one finger everywhere on the screen (for example, a corner) and then use another finger for selecting buttons and options, the touch gives response! What can i do for repairing that?

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Svartehjerte:
I think it's not optimized; the game is from 2011 (?) for GB... i saw a video running NFS Shift fine in an Arc S with 4.0.3, so, why is not working good for me?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] ekakribo:
Havent tried nfs shift yet but I ve played modern combat 3, dead space, and max payne on ICS. And my conclusion is touchscreen cant be optimal.. Sometimes it wont work.. But work again after I restart the game.. And sometimes it work but mot with multitouch so its difficult to control the character..

The next new game released or some updates may overcome this trouble

Remapping both search and long-press search

Hi, i'm currently running an Ice Cream Jibwich (ICS ROM for DZ) and I was wondering if it is possible to re-map the search key to ICS Multi-tasking (The same menu I get when I long-press home) And then also changing the long-press search to the current search function. I've been messing around with the Key files atmel-touchscreen.kl, and doing what you've done (Replacing SEARCH with APP_SWITCH) brings up the GB-style multi-tasking, and I can't find the configuration for the long-press of the search key either. Any help here, or am I barking up the wrong tree?
[G2 and Desire Z General] Steven How:
It wont work on sense 3 rom right?
[G2 and Desire Z General] blk_jack:
It won't, no. CM9 was patched to bring up the ICS recent apps UI whenever APP_SWITCH is triggered, else it uses the old GB UI (like in other Roms, AOSP etc)

SDcard show up under battery, surprising since there is no sd card in a galaxy nexus..

Anybody know what's going wrong or how to stop the battery drain ??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] InvalidUsername:
I've had this exact same issue! It happened at the same time as my other issue of app sizes continuing to climb upwards and the phone getting laggier in this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1715363

I just resorted to a factory reset, which resolved the problem. Sorry I can't be of much help, as I still have no idea what the issue is, but it was definitely taking a noticeable toll on my battery life.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
I would be concerned of what you have installed on your device, that it is calling itself sdcard.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jnr21:
Nexus internal sdcard is mostly named just sdcard, but this is first time i see it in battery stats. Maybe it's some bad app? Maybe you should uninstall apps one by one and see if it's go away.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Nexus does not have an internal sdcard and symlinks cannot use battery so I would say its an app.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jnr21:
I mean that 16gb internal storage which is called sdcard in most apps. And i know that it can't be in battery stats, that's why i said it's an app.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gbenj:
Anyone come up with a solution here?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gbenj:
So I'm guessing the lack of responses in this thread (and this one http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1792361&highlight=sdcard+battery) means no one has any idea why SDcard usage would be so high?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ibrahimakz:
Maybe it is not the amount of power that sd card uses, it is amount of power that the phone uses to read the sd card. If you did lots of things that needs reading from sd card, battery show that kind of information. Some program with wrong commands may couse this :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gbenj:
Thats what I figured but there shouldnt be anything thats accessing it, especially overnight in sleep mode, the SDcard has more CPU usage time than any other app, by a landslide.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] -Psycho-:
Have you looked at your running apps? (Settings>Apps>Running)

Maybe you can find out what app may be running called "sdcard".

Sounds a bit fishy. While there is no physically removable SD card, the phones internal memory is partitioned so you have some space which is recognized as the 'sdcard'.

In any case I've never seen anything like that in my battery drain, and even if there was, it definitely shouldn't be draining those amounts while the phone is idle.. :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gbenj:
I've gone through them but can't seem to figure out whats going on...i've also run logcat but that hasnt turned up any useful info either.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] -Psycho-:
And when you press on sdcard under the battery usage, what screen shows up? Does it say it's an app? Could you provide a screen shot?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gt5oh:
This just started happening to my galaxy nexus -- no idea why?

GSAM Battery Monitor shows System (sdcard) running at 17% and its really affecting battery life, I can actually watch the number drain by the minute.

I am not looking to do a factory reset again and I am running Bugless Beast 4.1.1 rom and have been for about 2 months now and never had this problem, anyone have any idea what could cause this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jsminnis:
Just started happening to me today. I just installed lookout so I hope that is the problem. Just uninstalled it to see if that was the culprit.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wad3g:
I'm 100% certain Google Music is causing mine.

Mine always says sdcard and media are the processes running that are eating my battery.

I can reboot and fix the issue, temporarily, but as soon as I play Google Music it starts back. I'm going to clear data and cache (for Google Music only). Now that I think about it this has been happening since Google Music's last update ~1 month ago.

I'm running the latest Trinity kernel and RasBeanJelly, but this happened while on Bugless Beast as well, so it's not a kernel/ROM issue either.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShahinTehShiz:
Hi all,

I've just received my new Samsung Galaxy Note, and am blown away by it, coming from a Sony Ericsson Xperia Play. I was just wondering what features I gain/lose if I update to stock ICS? I have NO plans to apply a custom ROM, as the phone seems to do amazing without it, but would I lose any apps or abilities in Note's ICS compared to Note's GB?

Thanks!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tknguyencsu:
I suggest that you stay with your GB rom for awhile unless you need the new samsung apps that can only run with ICS rom. You can get some info on ICS, GB, Bricks, Flashing etc... from

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Akiainavas:
You will not lose any apps or abilities.

Be careful with ICS update. If you want it - never use factory reset after you update. But since official ICS is TouchWizzed and look/work almost exactly as GB, it's not worth it right now, better to wait till Samsung figures it out.

And for my personal opinion:

I really recommend rooting your GB Note and flashing CM9 via CWM, this way you'll make your Note even more amazing and make it work "iphone-smooth".
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Braxos:
If your GB version is one of the lc1 one of the best GB out there stay on it. A small lose without ics for now to many risks with the highest to destroy the motherboard of your phone so for now I would suggest stay with GB and stay tuned on xda forums for news when it will be safe to update to ics.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PoisonWolf:
If you want ICS, go through CM9 or any CM9-base.

For now, stay away from Samsung's official ICS roms. Not worth the hassle, fear, headaches, etc.

If you want to stick on GB, stick to LC1 GB with Speedmod's GB Kernel. THat's also pretty damn awesome.

Thanks!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
go to settings then about phone, then look at kernel information. It should state there which version you have.

I also have LC1 - Just downloading ICS now to flash in ODIN, Im a little unsure after reading this thread lol, I know the brickbug is very serious and im trying everything to avoid it.

the only downside is that LC1 is unrootable, So how do we root it if we want to keep it ?

Bought Mass Effect Infiltrator today as it was on sale. Wouldn't boot until I installed Chainfire 3D and disabled MapBuffer Emu I think it was.

Now after logging into Origin for first time, it crashes phone every time I try and reload the game.

My question: Whats the best SetCPU settings? I've been trying a number of max settings, and governors, and all have caused phone to reboot. If anyone knows a magic setting that would keep me from rebooting for hours and hours, it would make my night much easier.

Or are there other tricks I can try?
[Motorola Triumph] dsmryder:
It doesn't seem to be the phone's settings. Have you tried some other ROMs? I don't know if it was posted here or not, but CM7 reloaded had a change in the video driver and may prove diagnosticly beneficial. What ROM are you running? You may want to try a FroYo ROM. Maybe one with b_kernel?
