[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moseso:
Perhaps someone here can help...

I am running tommytomatoe's Classic ROM v0.1.0 w/ the Supreme Cream Sandwich theme.

Yesterday evening, I wanted to turn on 4G to do a largish download. I used the quick settings and tapped the 4G box. The phone attempted to turn on 4G but just sat there saying, "Turning on 4G," without succeeding. (I have used 4G in this location before.) I went to the main settings window, and looked at 4G. Same thing: "Turning on 4G," endlessly -- and no way to get the phone to stop doing this. I hot-booted. I did a full reboot. Still "Turning on 4G" -- and a noticeable drain on the battery. In the end, the only way I found out of this "loop," was to restore a Nandroid.

I noticed one strange thing while trying to make one of the settings interfaces turn off 4G. A long-press on the 4G box in quick settings brought up the dialog, pictured here, instead of the settings window. Something tells me this is at the root of the phone not succeeding with turning on the 4G. Tapping the upper one got me to the main 4g settings window. Tapping the lower one got me a dialog that said something like "No 4G service available. Contact your carrier." Where is this weird duplication, and how do I get rid of it?

Thanks ------>

Did you use the RSA keychecker app to make sure your RSA keys are intact? If you lose those 4g is borked.

I know it might sound like alot of work mate,but i back up and wipe my complete sd card at least once a month and re-partition it with ext 4 and i will admit i dont have that sort of problem with my tele ever.Im always using 4G.Things and settings get cluttered after awhile and cache and delvik just dont do the trick anymore,so you need to do a full wipe,once in awhile mate.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moseso:
You're right... That sounds like a lot of work -- but I'm backing up and preparing to do that now -- and reflash the ROM if need be.

I was hoping someone would be able to show me where the scalpel could be applied to excise this wiggliness. Since that ain't happening, I'm sure the sledge hammer approach will get it. Thanks!
[Motorola Photon 4G] dragontology:
Is anybody getting better than 5 hours battery on a JB ROM?

I used to get no less than 9 hours, sometimes as many as 18 hours on ICS (Joker's CM9 and Th3Bill's Paranoid Android).

I like JB, but I'm going on a trip up north next week, and I'll probably be hours without a charger. Can't have my phone die on me in a strange area.

I'm almost certain I have to go back to ICS to accomplish this, but if not, let me know.

And can't whatever preserves battery in ICS be ported to JB? I can't believe Google Now and Project Butter make it use twice as much battery. Doesn't really seem worth it. What do you guys think? 5 hours tops... vs. 18 hours tops... 3 hours minimum.... vs. 9 hours minimum.
[Motorola Photon 4G] na7q:
battery life is decent on JB. regular off and on use i get around 24 hours average. constant use i get like 5-6.

turn off the data if you want it to last longer. or use airplane mode. better yet. go with CM7. i got up to 4 days of use with the data off. :cyclops:
[Motorola Photon 4G] Acvice:
ICS has better battery life all around. But as far as JB goes, CNA has the best battery life by a wide margin. Its about as good as ICS but comes up slightly shorter in most cases. I easily get 24 hours of uptime with moderate usage. About 12 with heavy usage.
[Motorola Photon 4G] XxCE0xX:
Define moderate usage. I got maybe 12 hours when I do nothing with it
[Motorola Photon 4G] Acvice:
There are a few things that come into play. For one, after calibrating the battery it still takes two or three charge cycles to start to notice a normalized amount of battery drain. Also, profiles profiles profiles! Powersave govnah with three or four profiles for in call, screen off, etc. Increases battery life by about 75% in most cases.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Sirrockalot:
I have a new TF700 and easily got the stock email client to sync up with my corporate Microsoft Exchange Active Sync server. Only problem is when I attempt to forward an email it always ends up bundling up the forwarded part of the email - including any attachments - into a *.eml attachment that apparently only MS Outlook understands. On a desktop with outlook you get this message with an attached message, click it, open it and there is the forwarded part of the email and the attachments. But if you forward to someone not with Outlook - i.e. Gmail, Yahoo, a blackberry, etc. it comes in as a nonmame.eml attachment and when you click to open it's just a bunch of text. All other email functions work properly. IT guys say it's a device/OS problem but I don't see anything to modify to make this work. Any suggestions?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Serpico.:
I just tried to duplicate this and was unable to. I forwarded an email from my Exchange account on my Infinity to my gmail account. The email showed perfectly in gmail.

Have you tried forwarding to different people to verify it isn't just one specific user account issue? I am assuming you are using the Email app supplied with the tablet that is from Google.
[HTC EVO 3D] redss55:
I leave my phone off every night. The only way I know of to unlock the phone while it's on is to quickly tap the power button to bring up that slide-to-unlock screen. But now that action turns on the phone when it's off, which I don't want. (I didnt think it used to do that?)

How can I tell if the phone is on without turning it on?
[HTC EVO 3D] plaidcounty:
Depending on the rom/kernel you use you can set other buttons to wake the phone. There's a volume key mod in most ROMs or leedroid tweaks and there's the sweep2wake tweak on certain kernels.
[HTC EVO 3D] flashallthetime:
I assume you are rooted? There's many option, roms with leedroid tweaks allow you to wake the phone up with volume buttons, camera button wake, sweep2 wake is kernel mod that allows you to slude your finger across the capacitive buttons to wake
[HTC EVO 3D] flashallthetime:
Just have someone text you every hour and you'll know that your phone is on
[HTC EVO 3D] scariola:
Plug it into a charger, or unplug it. 90% of roms turn the screen on when charging. If it only shows the orange light, then its off.

Simplest no hack way I could think of.
[HTC EVO 3D] ninjoe8:
Take out the battery when you turn your phone off at night.
[HTC EVO 3D] maek_it_happen:
Turn off fastboot in power settings
[HTC EVO 3D] Pauly_k:
The phone would still turn on though wouldn't it.

Strange question but I also hate when I go to check to see if the phone is on at work and it boots up, so I have to also wait before turning it back off. It can be a pain.

Some useful ideas in here though to check.

Everytime I reboot my phone, I get this error and only a battery pull with the SIM card pulled for 10+ mins fixes this problem.. Anyone with a solution on whats going on?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] THE SKATER DUDE:
I don't have this problem but what i would do is try to get a new sim card and see if that fixes it. If you are on a custom rom go back to stock and see if that fixes it. And if none of that works get a new phone(hopefully you are in the 14 day warranty so you will get a new phone instead of a refurbished one)

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themilstead:
I had tried flashing the SlimBeam ROM (coming from Helly Bean, which worked great), but got the perpetual AT&T logo of death. This seemed to be an issue with several other users, as pointed out in the SlimBean thread.

To resolve this, I flashed back to stock with a Heimdall One-Click utility. Stock now boots great and the phone is functional (albeit now running a very old version of Android). I was looking to root again to go back to Helly Bean. However, I can no longer enter recovery mode with either the 3-button method or ADB. When the phone is told to enter recovery, it just hangs at the AT&T logo, just like when it was trying to boot SlimBean.

I can restart the phone into the stock ROM and I can also successfully enter download mode. Recovery just isn't happening.

Any ideas on what I can try at this point? I'm on a Mac but have access to a PC if necessary.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmtheiss:
Have you tried flashing a stock rom with bootloaders? I hate suggesting that, but sometimes re-flashing the bootloaders makes a difference.

Just make sure you're careful to have a solid connection throughout the flash.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themilstead:
Ah, I don't remember if the Heimdall package came with a bootloader (I did this earlier today at the office, and I'm home now). When I was restoring earlier, Odin wouldn't recognize that my phone was connected in download mode...hence me using Heimdall. I'll give Odin another shot right now since I'm up and running with stock.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmtheiss:
There are Heimdall packages with bootloaders, if you need it.

Just remember that Heimdall will write its drivers to the port you installed it to - if you plug in your phone to that port and try to fire up Odin, Odin won't see it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themilstead:
I'm on a different computer than when I used Heimdall earlier, so Odin is now recognizing the phone.

New problem: The process won't get past "SetupConnection". I'm currently trying out "I897UCKJ3 Stock with BL".

Rah rah rah rah rah. :p

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themilstead:
Well, I'll be damned: The Epilogue

Got it!

It was simply a matter of me continuing to try other USB ports (my computer has 4). I tried one that previously didn't work, and it suddenly did. Not exactly sure what changed, but persistence paid off! I suppose power tolerance is potentially different for each port? (...in the same vein of it's better to plug into the back of the computer rather than a keyboard. I digress.)

Anyway, after Odin both recognized my phone and got past the "SetupConnection" step, I proceeded to install "KI2 w/ Bootloaders & Boog's KernO". This included ClockworkMod built-in, so I thought it'd be a good option. Sure enough, I was finally able to boot into recovery without any sort of trouble, then proceeded to install the new CM10 nightly. :D

Everything works. Thanks for the replies and help, everyone!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Sun_Cat:
This is probably a silly question, but I hope some more experienced Android experimenters can help ease my mind. I'm an Android noob, but I do know enough to follow instructions and I've successfully installed aorth's CWM Recovery and made a backup. (If I understand correctly, this is called a Nandroid backup and represents a complete backup of the system. Please correct me if I'm wrong.)

Now my Tab boots into CWM Recovery when I hold the volume-up key. It sees my backup when I select the "restore" option. All that looks as I would expect it to.

My question is: How safe is it to play around with flashing other firmwares, for example CyanogenMod 10? Will I always be able to get back to where I am now simply by booting into recovery and restoring? Or is it still possible for something to go so horribly wrong that that won't work? On a scale of 1 - 100, how high are the chances of being able to recover no matter what?

(BTW, I do have a copy of the backup on my PC, so if it got wiped from the Tab I would still be able to get it onto the external sd card.)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] pawdog:
I am not a developer by any means. But I love to tinker. My rules are. Read everything. I have never been unable to restore a backup if somthing seems to have gone wrong.

i just got my LG Optimus LTE LU6200. the phone is fast and has great features.

the problem i am having now is i noticed it has a very short battery life. it barely can get one day to stay alive from basic usage (no gaming and wifi turned off, as well as 3g/4g are disabled; only texting and browsing the menu).

it is running on ICS 4.0.4 and rooted.

here is its screenshot for its build number, droid version, software version, and kernel:

any fix?

[LG Nitro HD] drumist:
He means that the Optimus LTE has below average battery life, but even so, what you are describing is abnormal. Did you do a factory reset after you updated to ICS? (To perform a factory reset, turn the phone completely off, then hold the volume down and power buttons until you see a prompt asking if you want to perform a factory reset. Then release and follow the instructions. This clears all your installed apps and settings on the device.)
[LG Nitro HD] Chipmunk888:
yes, his line is confusing. guess he is suffering too from battery performance on his p930 :laugh:

already tried that, i even calibrated the battery using a batt calibration application, and cycled the recharging but still no improvement. maybe this problem is due to the engineer's ICS ROM not tweaked to give better battery life?

[LG Nitro HD] veryluckyguy:
check battery use under system settings. you'll see a list of all the processes that use up the battery. click on each one to see more info. if you see any in the list that keeps the system awake a lot, then you may have found the bug. i find that if the system gets awaken by these processes/apps, the battery tend to get drained really fast.
[LG Nitro HD] Chipmunk888:
Copy. Then what to do if found a bug? Any way to fix the very short battery life? Thank you
[LG Nitro HD] chuyennho184:
To save power, there are many way:

1. Shutdown apps run on background by system tuner pro.

2. Setting display to 20 - 30%.

3. Remove unneccesary apps from system apps.

4. Shutdown 3G, wifi, GPS when you don't need to use.
[LG Nitro HD] Chipmunk888:
Hi,

I tried the system tuner pro. Too techy and advanced for me. It turned the system more laggy and slow.. resinstalled the ROM ^^

I recently purchased an unlocked Android RAZR from Newegg, in hopes of saving money by not buying it from Verizon, and getting a cheaper non-contract plan from AT&T. I read that it came with Gingerbread 2.3.6 and you may upgrade the OS to Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.4. I made a failed attempt to Settings > About Phone > System Updates. Nothing happens when I do this, although I am connected to wi-fi, so I am guessing it has something to do with my System Version, or the fact I am currently not active on any network.

I did my research before registering an account to post this forum. I found a few guides on how to manually update the OS but, these guides had been specifically for the AsiaRetail and Verizon phones. I have a MERetail phone and to my understanding I may be out of luck, unless I can find a version for the MERetail, or somehow change my phone's System Version to AsiaRetail, so I may use that version to flash the ROM.

So.. What to do?..

System Version: 65.1.12.XT910.MERetail.en.06

Model Number: XT910

Android Version: 2.3.5

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] kehlan:
After searching hard for a solution, I have come to the conclusion that CM10 fried my tab's kernel memory.

What initially happened was just a random freeze while I was using the tablet, running the CM10 preview build. Keep in mind this was a couple weeks ago or so.

I hard reset the tablet, and it randomly boots into download mode. Okay... nothing weird. Reboot again.

Back into download mode. Inspection reveals the message "Reason: No Kernel" at the top of the command line.

I've been at work all day (thankfully a slow day) and I've tried just about everything from rebooting the tablet into recovery mode - which the device no longer has, either - to Odin, to ADB. A final google search directs me to this thread, where it appears the same thing happened to a non-rooted user and he had his mainboard replaced (assuming for free) due to hardware malfunction.

So I guess I'm just here looking for insight, perhaps closure. Is it really dead? If so, how can I make the best of this? Anything that I can salvage through a teardown? Perhaps a gadget I can build with it?

Any input at all is highly welcomed - even wanted. Please, give your thoughts on my loss of this tablet.
