Battery

Hey, my first post. I installed revision 8 on monday. I used Jaggyrom the month before.

Really nice ROM, sometimes some programs run a little but slow, but that could be my SD Card (class 2). I have a class 10 but I kept my Data and a Backup of Jaggyrom on that one.

I have two questions:

1. If I wanna go back what do I have to do? Wipe everything and than restore the backup? Or just restore the backup from the 2nd SD Card?

and the 2. question:

2. I dont wanna go back, but my Battery drains so fast. With Jaggy (and stock ROM) I could use the phone three days, now I have to recharge every evening. In the night, without touching the phone I loose 20% in 6-7 hours. Did I do anything wrong maybe? Should I change anything?

Thanks for your help and the awesome work!!!! :good:

Edit: When I open the battery stats, it say´s that its 75% Android OS. So I think its not that the WLAN or something like that causes the problem.

Edit2: I use D2EXT+ from this Tut: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1919703
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Lennox Alexion:
Class 2 is a bit slow.. :-S

1. Wipe everything and then restore the nandroid backup.. :)

2.few people are still facing similar problem.. try installing the rom once again cleanly.. :)

Hope it helped.. :)

Wifi reception is bad in build #8... I can confirm that...

But also I think build#7 had an extraordinary reception.... better than all of the other phone I've tested lately...!

including One X, Sensation, Desire HD, Wildfire and Wildfire S... It could connect to my router while I was far

away... while other phones couldn't...

This build's reception is worse than the other phone...... (Build#8)

I have installed the build.prop tweak... But I can not confirm whether it helped or not until tomorrow....

But I think it hadn't any noticeable effect on my wifi reception... I will comeback and tell you later...
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] aaamerjee:
I have already applied that fix with no improvement whatsoever. As a matter of fact, ever since applying the fix, I have lost the ability to use Poweramp after flashing the XLoud and Bravia engine zip.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Ahmed.T1:
Thanks for the Reply. If I´ll stay with CM 9 I will use the class 10 card of course.

I installed CM9.1 Build#6(by derefas) now with INT2EXT+. Right now after 30 Minutes and some apps being installed I have lost 6% of battery. But 75% is now the Screen Backlight and Android OS is 6%. So, I´ll try this out for a while and will tell the results, if anybody else is facing battery issues with the newer builds. The WLAN connects better, I can say that so far. :o
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] hrkh83:
I screwed my phone badly and I had to reflash the rom!

This time ( without anything different ) my wifi signal is amazing! like build#8

Even without installing build.prop tweak!!!

Both time I wiped all the partitions... and began flashing!

battery

The OS is just wonderful. But the battery life is awful. just gives 3 days without wifi, bluetooth etc. my htc sense stock gives me 7 days with wifi and all.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] droidbot678:
wat?? u serious?? 7 Days???
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Anath_Akhan:
Hard to believe

Hello,

3 days on cm9 as you described is normal, but 7 days on stock sense is really hard to believe..maybe in standby with wifi on. With heavy or even normal use 7 days sound too nice.

solution is to use a micro sd adapter to transfer files between sd card and pc

If you have partitioned your card (class 4) then it's normal, you can try closing application running from sd-ext :)

While using CM9, latest version (build 4/10/2012), I did a full backup of my phone and I installed CM10. So far so good BUT when I tried to restore my phone, it didn't work. It didn't pass the boot process.

Why do you think this happened? (obviously I deleted everything before installing CM10. I don't believe this is an issue)

Power off menu bug!!

I flashed CM9 Build 7 on 07/10/12.After nearly one week (that was yesterday). I experienced a bug. That is - frequently the phone itself goes into the power off menu, even when I didn't press the power button and if I press back button it shuts down.And finally I tried removing the battery and rebooting again.Then it stopped.Will it occur again or tell me what to do?
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] veverone:
I can't get logcats.

At the point the boot process stops, my device is not listed if I do "adb devices". I can see it in device manager, but not in that list.

Has anybody used Tango video calling on this ROM? it gives error when call connects with someone, whether outgoing or incoming.

It's obvious. You can't make a video call, since our phone doesn't have a front facing camera.

i think i did a clean install.. i formatted sdcard, and flashed cmod and gapps and did wipe. is that clean install?

edit: one more question, when adding ext4 partition ( example 2gb in size), does that mean phone should have 2gb "internal" memory? and i also read that parition should be made with sdcard reader, not with sdcard in phone, does it have to be like that?

In clean install format boot,system,etc

[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Anath_Akhan:
Have you mounted system when flashing?

Hi,

Clean install: wipe chache, dalvik cache, system, sd-ext.

Mount system (maybe data too) before flashing, it should be the reason why your wifi is not working. Also let it settle for some minutes after the first start and reboot.

Or check if its not only the authentication issue. For me right after flashing wifi is giving authentication failed, but after restart ut is solved.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] hehexdlol:
can all that be done when booted in recovery? if not, where can i find all those options?

e: wifi working, after reseting a few times wifi icon just poped up and is fully functioning.

Back it up somewhere else.

Also, you need to mount /system as R/W. The option is right there in root explorer. Other file explorers will be different.

And copy build.prop in /system. Not default.prop.

That's the permissions given to the file. Long press on file after the copy and look for permissions. It translates into 644 permissions

Mainly a few stability issues fixed.. Also, the bluetooth handsfree kit bug seems to be fixed in the latest build.. And yes.. It would be safe to do a clean install.. You can backup your apps with titanium backup and restore them after the install.. But DO NOT restore app data.. Because that may create problems..

The bluetooth handsfree kit works great for me. Only some battery drain because it don't go to deep sleep state when bluetooth is on.

2. When instaling Build9 freshly - Struck at boot animation (after 2min play of animation).
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] :
1 you need gapps installed for play store

2 make sure you`ve fully wiped the phone before installing or at least factory reset in cwm, also 1st time installation does take longer
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Ashwa:
Thanks for the reply.

Full wipe means including Cache.

I installed the latest gapps. i followed this procedure : did wipe / factory reset in cwm, Flash rom, flash gapps.

GOT IT.

Upgrading - worked well.

Procedure followed :

1. Did wipe/ Factory reset, Flashed build1(NO.5), Flashed Gapps, Rebooted.

2. Again went to Recovery, flashed build9, Flashed Gapps.

Fresh installing Build9 not worked. (Struck at boot animation)
