I have to force close maps often. Something turns it on randomly and I can't figure out what it is. It's not the gps because I've tested it after force closing it and it didn't turn maps back on. If I don't force close it after a reboot it will use up a lot of battery.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dee1984in:
Try updating the Settings

in Location > Location & Google search - Turn this off or don't select this, hope this will help. (apps will ask for permission if gps is needed)

this helped a bit for me.,
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Silellak:
Make sure Google Latitude isn't running. That can be a big battery killer.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] brianhill1980:
Ya, I noticed Google Maps keeps opening up in the background ALL THE TIME. I will force kill it, refresh running tasks, and it's there again. Chews up about 24MB. Thanks for the tip about location services, I'll try turning that off and see what happens.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Squeak22:
It seems to be primarly when it has updates. If you install the updates the battery drain will go away.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] phishie:
Pretty sure this isn't true. I had good problem without any pending updates.

I installed the autostarts app ($1.50) and disabled Google Maps from auto starting, that seemed to help a lot.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mpr90:
I get quite mixed performance - sometimes I get the maps app taking a lot of battery, sometimes not. See battery life images from my One X below, taken 10 days apart. On one I got 2 1/3 days life without maps running; on the other I got 12 hours with maps taking 38%. I haven't installed any new apps in that time, although I have applied market updates.

I've been trying to track this down using Carat and BetterBatteryStats, but no luck yet. @benraf, if you figure this out, please let us know.

Cheers.

Use rom toolbox to freeze it till you can figure it out.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ECEXCURSION:
Google maps is like a virus! That's why I always use mapquest. :rolleyes::rolleyes:

On a more serious note, I wouldnt mind figuring this out.

Do you have GPS turned on? When I went to Orlando, I had GPS on and Maps navigating for about 4-5 hours, and the most it used was 8% of my total battery. The screen should always be the biggest consumer of battery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ZPaul2Fresh8:
Well let me start off by saying that I "updated" CMW through ROM manager. Big mistake it was actually a downgrade after using CMW Touch. So I decided to change it back, but for some reason the version that I was directed to use from ROM Manager had problems seeing files and directories.

So...I couldn't get access to the zip to flash again.

With my OCD and having a ton of useless directories and files already on my phone :confused:I said screw it, mounted my USB and copied my files over to my PC and then FORMATTED the entire phone.

Then installed CMW Touch through Odin v1.85. Success...

But my phone is stuck at the boot logo. Is there a way to flash a custom ROM from this point via Odin?

I am NOT worried about the flash counter. I just want my phone fixed :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Clark Joseph Kent:
can you get into CWM?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ZPaul2Fresh8:
Yes, I can....

I thought I could mount usb storage there and drag over a ROM and then flash it, but my computer isn't detecting it when it's mounted, or I'm doing something wrong...?

Edit: I wanted to add the fact that my phone is showing up in my computer's device manager as Samsung Android ADB Interface...So is there some commands I can do through ADB to push a ROM onto my phone?

Thanks for your help Joe.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ZPaul2Fresh8:
Trying adb push 'ROM' /sdcard right now....

Well I got the ROM onto my card, but when I flash it I'm getting an error Status 7....

"assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "SGH-I717" ||, then it repeats and says quincyatt.... I'm thinking since this in the nightly build of CM9 that my device should be named quincyatt and it's not since I don't have CMW for this ROM???
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ZPaul2Fresh8:
No one?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rangercaptain:
I would use either strategy:

1. Get the Gingerbread Odin 1Click package. This will install driver, Odin, then format and flash GB rom.

2. Use Kies ICS upgrade site, go to tools, then do an emergency firmware installation.

Then flash CWM kernel for recovery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Froid:
If you can push twrp to you phone, then flash version 2.2.1.1. You will be able to install cm9 successfully through that recovery. If you don't want to do that, then push a different ROM to your phone and flash that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rangercaptain:
Excuse me for diverting the thread a little, but . . .

@froidroid:

I don't use that recovery -- what is the difference/advantage of it over CWM? TIA
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Froid:
I would say just a personal preference ultimately. The reason I suggested it for him was so he could flash cm9. Cm9 won't flash with his current recovery. I would definitely suggest giving it a try. The UI is amazing and there are a few more options that aren't available in cwm.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Froid:
Did I mention a nandroid takes less than 5 minutes? Best part imho
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rangercaptain:
Thats a gooood selling point.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kinghorsey:
At this point I'd say flash stock through Odin and start over...as long as you've copied over your important files...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Clark Joseph Kent:
:p:D:p

Trolling via Tapatalk 2, on my GNote...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ZPaul2Fresh8:
LoL Thanks guys, I got it.

What I was able to do was push the newest version of CWM onto my phone via ADB. But it was tricky because it came as a stand-alone file (recovery.img) so I did some searching to find an actual Update.zip for CWM and replaced the recovery.img in that zip with the new recovery.img ;)

Then pushed with ADB (adb push update.zip /sdcard) and updated :)

[Droid 2 Global General] sparkplugDev:
Hey guys I have been working on building a ROM based on the current OTA, pre-rooted and deodexed and a few other perks thrown in. At any rate, this is my first ROM and while I would be comfortable flashing a ROM for experimenting with to my Kindle or my Dinc because they have bootloaders that are worth something, the problem with the D2G is that if I get caught in a bootloop I don't know what to do because as far as I know there is no way to access CWM from outside of rebooting to it from a rooted ROM. Does anyone know what to do because I would like to get this development rolling but I would rather not run the risk of bricking my phone if I can help it. Thanks!
[Droid 2 Global General] sparkplugDev:
In other words, in the case that i get a bootloop how would I go about recovering my device? flash a stock update.zip through stock recovery?
[Droid 2 Global General] Gasai Yuno:
OTA updates can only be installed on top of stock firmware they are made for. If there are altered files in /system that are on the check list, it won't work.

[Desire HD General] MadMax:
Hey everyone, this is a petition to get HTC to give us Ice Cream Sandwich. As people have seen, HTC released this statement

Now as anyone on XDA we know this is not true. This is really getting alot of us mad, and I thought it is about time we do something as a community. Now, the HTC Desire was suppose to get Gingerbread, but ended up not being able to handle Gingerbread with Sense on top of it, so because of that and the efforts of the community, HTC released an RUU on the HTCDev.com website for a pure Ginerbread update. Now if HTC is not going to bring an update for our phone, they can at lest bring a ICS RUU then. It at lest gives us Devs offical libs and kernel.

Now please people, can you please sign this petition, we need to show HTC that we care about this phone, and we want this update.

http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/give-us-ics/

Just a note, if someone thinks i should change the way i worded it, send me a PM and we will make it happen

If you like this petition, hit the Newsworthy Thread? Button, also remember to hit the thanks

Also, this is just some of the other phones it will benefit, PM me if you know it will help more

MyTouch 4G

Desire Z/G2

Update #1

Now Part of this is true, as we did need to system link stuff for a ICS Sense 4 rom that I am developing, but the fact still remains, they can always release a pure version of Android for developers on HTCDev or the version that hey repartitions everything. They said they want to help developers with that site, well they they need to help us. I am going to be trying to contact HTC at the start of the week, and see if the corporate office will pick up, or call me back.

Update #2

Well I have managed to get in touch with HTC. I was talking to a member of the escalations team and he understood what this petition was all about, and kinda knew a little about rooting and everything, he had his rooted. So after talking to him, he said he would make a few phone calls and talk to some people higher up plus talk to his friend in corporate tech support (idk what he does, but something higher), well I have gotten another call from him saying that the higher up people are gathering information for all the sides, and then will we contacting me soon. He does not know a time frame right now, but we will be talking again soon.

With all the emails, calls and this, they got the point that they need to do something, and all of this is because of XDA community. We have had it on twitter, other threads and other devs from other phones helping. I can not believe the support. All we need to do now is get this on sites like Engadget, CNet, or other sites like that, that has hundreds of readers everyday

@shadowboss at least the company (Samsung) didn't mislead nor lie about an ICS update, wait they also didn't lie about what their devices cannot handle lol! On top of that issue with locked boot loaders?? Not providing drivers for chips or something as simple as GPU driver? Samsung care more than HTC. Remember the image on desire HD kernel on their source code website? Clearly its all done and working fine, they're just wanting the paper paper, clearly there's a reason for samsungs success

Signed, I was singing the praises of HTC customer service when my HD needed a new volume rocker and how quickly the got me pretty much a new chassis but this brings my opinion of them right down again.

I don't know if it's a money thing, "Let's force older phone users to upgrade to a brand new phone if they really want ICS", or it's just a shuffling of resources and the newer phones get the attention but it does cast a shadow over the company in my mind.

Anyone here an attorney? We need to sue them. They said it would be updated. We know it runs fine. They are lying now to force people to buy more product. For several months people relied on and have been waiting for this update. I for one am beyond disgusted at this behavior. They should have never promised what they weren't going to give us. HTC has really become a bunch of morons lately.

Everyone should do this on his language's sites, blogs, and forums, so that we will have the maximum number of signs when max will present it to htc corporate office! Let's go guys! It's our right to get at least kernel 3.0 sources! Keep sharing ;)
[Desire HD General] c5satellite2:
Now you cancelled ICS on Desire HD claiming poor performance? We already know that to be an untruth. We wait for months based on YOUR promise that it is getting ICS, and now you are pulling it. How about Thinderbolt? Same level of hardware, but it is getting it right? This has become an issue that is simply unacceptable on your part. You want to sell phones, but are alienating your existing customer base(a lot of people have Desire HD) and now they are pissed. Do you think they are going to buy another HTC phone now after you screwed us like this? We know it is a lie about performance. You really look stupid and whoever made this decision should be fired and is probably someone who is hurting the company in other ways too. Please forward this to the President/CEO of HTC, as they should be aware of issues that are going to hurt future sales. If this isn't rectified, I am no longer purchasing or recommending HTC product to my customers. You are really helping Samsung gain further market share with your decisions.

[Desire HD General] :
Signed.

Although I also think the wording could be changed. We're not really asking for ICS, we need the drivers and stuff like that. Now the greatest thing would be if they'd just release the source so we could compile it for whatever Android version we want, but that's most likely not gonna happen. So they could at least give us the binary blobs needed for the upgrade, we already have everything else.
