Battery drain

try this method..its work for me..

-charge phone to 100% & let it continue charge for more 1 hour..

-unplug the charger,reboot into CWM recovery..

-go to advance,wipe battery stats & reboot..

press thanks if i helped..
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] :
as i said above....i`ve tried that method....to the letter......................wasnt any real battery drain in the 1st build (build no.5) and it got used alot at that point.....
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] bawita87:
remove or disable useless application..or kill it using task killer..
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] :
i have nothing extra installed apart from gapps to test, very clean and lean lol.....task managers kill battery more......i never use them.....android system runs better without.....
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] AIndoria:
^^ That. It seems ICS does drain a lot of battery. JuiceDefender. Never tried it. Looks like I'll have to now.

Okay question. Would it be wise to use Voice Search and the libs for Voice Search from CM7?

---------- Post added at 11:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:04 PM ----------

Fun tip: Go to your ABOUT PHONE in settings, tap a few times on Android version (where it says 4.0.4) and an android will appear.

Hold it. I mean, hold your finger on it and enjoy as it grows larger and a Nyan-Cat like screen appears XD
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] :
worth a shot yes with the lib, the app will prob fc, you could also try cm9 version of file from another gapps

Okay, I was able to make Google Now work in build 5 somehow (It did give me a few force closes, I don't exactly remember how I managed it) but has anyone got it working in the latest builds?

It always gives network errors.

[HTC Pico (Explorer)] AIndoria:
Did you flash it normally? or did you do anything else after that? It gives me FC because the Google Search app size (Velvet.apk) shows up as 0.0B in App info

Also, is anyone else getting "Error Signing in" problem when signing in into their google account the first time?
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] ROFLkopter:
Just flashed it normally in Yannou90's recovery and it worked.

And I also had the sign in error, even though I was signed in so I just ignored it.

[HTC Pico (Explorer)] nukeblitz:
Hmm, these build numbers are getting confusing again. I follow this thread closely. I usually log in at least once per day but ended up missing build 8 somehow. Had to backtrack quite a few pages t find it...

I propose that we refer to builds not displayed on the front page with the page number it is on.

For example, I'm currently downloading build 8 (page 249).

What do you guys think? Useful or just a waste of time?
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] ROFLkopter:
That's the latest build, it's just that the first page hadn't been updated yet.

Network Mode Selectio Option

Hello,

Where can I select NetworkMode ?

In Stock ROM we have an option to select Network mode as GSM / WCDMA or BOTH.

Can we have that option in this ROM too, as due to new Data plan I have to select WCDMA :(

Pls suggest.

[HTC Pico (Explorer)] nik007rock:
build 8 has some wifi prob i guess iam not getting speed also it shows authentication failed even in open network restart cannot solve this
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] nukeblitz:
I have to do this myself

Two ways to do it.

1. Go into settings>system>notification drawer>widget buttons and check toggle 2G/3G. Scroll down and change network modes to your liking. Then use the notification toggle when you want to switch. This is my preferred method

2. Dail the following in the dialer

*#*#4636#*#*

Which, for ease of memory is

*#*#INFO#*#*

In the new screen that pops up, select phone information and look for "set preferred network type"

EDIT: there is a third way, I just remembered.

You can modify build.prop. The property is ro.telephony.default_network. (I'm certain that's the right one, but do double check)

For this property,

0 is WCDMA preferred

1 is GSM only

2 is WCDMA only

3 is GSM auto

Am nit entirely sure what the difference between 0 and 3 is but I assume 0 will hold on to a WCDMA network harder...

ICS didn't remove this feature, it just hid it...

Chose "forget" on you phone and try to connect again, with the new password.

Try to reboot the phone too.

If that does not work, install the ROM again, don't forget to factory reset before flashing.

Ofcourse I consider Reboot is standard process after any update.

Still struggling with the same issue. If have to reflash, will try to do in weekends.

@ Developers,

Another Error I found is under Data Usage settings when Mobile Data is OFF.

Under Data Usage there is one button "View App Settings" when click on that, it shows error pop-up "Unfortunately, settings has stopped" which brings me to home screen again.

Ask me if needed screenshots.

Question

Hi guys, I was trolling qualcomm's site and found this, stupid question maybe but would installing this .zip download improve any game performance with the mobile? because games are smooth as silk but the adverts with the scrolling text that change every 10 seconds will cause it to lag every ten seconds while the advert's text changes. I wouldnt want to install this to bugger my phone in anyway since this is a daily driver for me :) Maybe you guys compile this driver with it and im being stupid but it was just a idea :)

Ahaha cheers again, Blewk

The speed reduced to 600 to 1000 kbps for me but lately it's 2 to 3 mbps (writing speed)

It may be because the phone is accessing some apps from sd card in background, try closing them once after connecting the phone through USB cable.

For partitioning you can simply partition using cwm recovery...

It partitions your sd card to ext3 and fat 32..

In the recovery go to advanced or advance partition something.. (don't remember the location exactly)

Then select partition sd card, select desired ext3 size, set swap size to 0 (read somewhere that keeping it 0 is better for longevity of the card).

Done!

Before doing this back up everything on the card! As it is going to format the card!

Hope it helped :-S
