[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] pmattie:
SUCCESS !!

Thanks a lot for all your suggestions.

Here is what worked:

- I opened device manager and uninstalled ALL USB devices (Yes ALL, not just Samsung, Android etc) and unfamiliar Storage devices.

- Then I rebooted once so that all other device drivers could be installed.

- Then I rebooted a second time and let it install any remaining drivers.

- Then I plugged in the phone and it installed the driver and now it started showing the correct device name

- Now, I ran the Heimdall 1-click and it opened offered to re-install drivers. I did this.

- After all this, I was able to get 1-Click GB rom installed and now back to VB.

(I think the key was "uninstall all USB devices" and "reboot TWICE")
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] gs_0523:
glad you got it to work. ive had my share of soft bricks with this device and it always takes something different to get it to run right. im starting to think that my computer is alive because of this reason because it just doesnt like to play nice sometimes. LOL

When I flash cm9 there are certain songs in my playlist that will not show up at all I have switched from internel to external sd but doesnt work Is there any fixes for this, the only problem i have with cm that I can not play all my songs.
[Milestone 2 General] lacolle:
I have updated my M2 with cm10.

it's working well, but I'm facing some reboot some time.

I have same problem when I used MIUI, so I don't know if it's due to CM10 / lower memory (around 50Mo when reboot appears) or due to bug in my phone.

anybody facing to anormaly reboot ?

Regards,
[Milestone 2 General] Caesarivs:
Do you undervolt?
[Milestone 2 General] lacolle:
No
[Milestone 2 General] JoseBerga:
Do you have this reboot problem on official GB or Froyo too?

Enviado desde el ñoba usando Tapatalk 2.2.8
[Milestone 2 General] lacolle:
maybe :)

In fact, 1 years ago, i switched from original rom to miui rom. it was work fine, but few month after some reboot appears, then more and more often.

I suspect an incompatible apps with miui, so i decided to switch to CM10 one month ago with tezet ch kernel. But reboot problem stay.

So I don't know if my problem is hardware or software.

do you have some similar problem ?
[Milestone 2 General] Megalith27:
Does it reboot on high demand or low demand?

And do you use v6 supercharger?
[Milestone 2 General] lacolle:
sometimes reboot just when i unlock mobile, sometimes when I start apps, or when I connect to dock station.

so always when demand appears (low or high).

Maybe I can try to freeze clock frequency

I don't know v6 supercharger
[Milestone 2 General] Megalith27:
Than not really sure what the problem is caused by.

Can you post your vsel values and cpu frequences, may be that will give us some idea
[Milestone 2 General] lacolle:
frequency is between 300 -> 1000

Where can i found vsel ?
[Milestone 2 General] Megalith27:
Install this app: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=31502042&postcount=856

Launch, scroll down to find Overclock toolbox...open it up and it should give you your clock and vsel values, if not click on "Current" and then report back
[Milestone 2 General] lacolle:
clk1 300 vsel 30

clk2 600 vsel 46

clk3 800 vsel 54

clk4 1000 vsel 58

thanks for your help
[Milestone 2 General] Megalith27:
I am afraid I don't know what causes you problems...your vsel values seem to be alright. I am sorry for not being much of a help....
[Milestone 2 General] lacolle:
trebuchet stop regulary, so maybe memory problem

when I start mobile, I have around 100Mo but after using few apps, I have only 50Mo free
[Milestone 2 General] Peter_Schneider:
I assume this is caused by the MIUI, which might have been ported from Defy rom (not especially developed for Milestone 2), I had similar problem when I flashed the rom ported from Defy.

I flashed official froyo before install CM9, because I want a clear base. I would suggest that before flash official froyo / GB kernel stock rom, know your current kernel version to avoid the "first screen stuck" problem. Downgrade or adjusted kernel before flashing official rom.

Hope my suggestin work. Good luck!

Peter
[Milestone 2 General] lacolle:
ok Peter, I will try it this weekend
[Milestone 2 General] SnowRaptor:
I'm also having freezing and rebooting, it is usually when I switch between apps, or open one.

Is there any tracing app I can use to log the data and see what's going on before the halt?

Thanks!
[Milestone 2 General] lacolle:
I need time to to some trial, but from latest OTA update (sunday), I have no more reboot. I'm waiting to check if one occurs
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zeeshanhassan:
I saw a swap.img, on my sd card, on the root directory. Is it the swapping that reduces sd card's life? I installed supercharger v6 and i am on jellaxy 08/09/2012 release. Please can someone tell me thx :D
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PsyGik:
In the CM settings, uncheck swap..swap reduces SD Card life, but if you've class 6 or higher, the damage is less.
[Galaxy S III General] AB_:
Nice!

I've been on Stock-rooted since I got the device. I'm definitely going to try this out.

I use my phone plenty, doubt I'd be able to get 5 days out of it, but we'll see.
[Galaxy S III General] eggman89:
Is it better than just freezing all the unwanted apps?
[Galaxy S III General] avdaga:
Cannot promise that, but you can compare the list of removed apps in ROMCleaner.txt
[Galaxy S III General] DorEzo:
Will it work with a LH1 (BTU)- stock rom? (Rooted, of course)

Thanks!
[Galaxy S III General] yellowbiz:
According to the images, the screen was off 99% of the time, am I missing something?
[Galaxy S III General] avdaga:
It should, make a backup and try for yourself. Do take into consideration that you might need the default ICS apps or simply use the ROMCleaner_user.txt, not the JB one.
[Galaxy S III General] avdaga:
The first image is supposed to show how it performs when idle, the second is after a day of usage. Primarily used it for some messaging and calls though, however the main point is that the battery is not drained when not using the phone. When I used a stock rom the battery was depleted for 50% after half a day without me even touching the device :-\

Of course if you use the phone normally the battery will be depleted in 3-4 days, like i mentioned in the intro.
[Galaxy S III General] delsus:
I know how to get years of battery life, charge your phone to 100%, take the battery out for at least 2 years, and it should have some life left in it, you must make sure you don't put the battery in for at least 2 years.
[Galaxy S III General] jody2k:
What are you guys whining about..if it can improve your battery life and remove the apps that you dont need, why not? You should be thankfull that people put their work in such things in their free time.
[Galaxy S III General] avdaga:
Please install any stock-based ROM and check the services that are running in the background - without you even know you had them. There is a lot of garbage coming in all stock-based roms, and I really do not understand the problem of removing stuff you do not use; Morever, I think this is something people should do in all apsects of life; that is removing sh*t you do not use.

I conclude your assertions are based on thin air, as you did not even take the time to test this approach. I have spent quite some time testing stuff out and posting my observations here - so please do not post if you have nothing constructive or reproducible to say.

Last thing: I do not replace ICS apps with JB, this stuff was tested on a JB rom - but you knew already because you read the full post :eek:
[Galaxy S III General] slaphead20:
so basically you debloat a stock deodexed Rom? Any other changes I'm missing?
[Galaxy S III General] avdaga:
Besides changing some samsung apps for CM10 ones, that is it indeed. Though the debloating is more thorough than proposed by others.
[Galaxy S III General] slaphead20:
Ok, thanks,, just wanted to know exactly what the script did, prefer my own debloating and tweaking, but good for newcomers.
[Galaxy S III General] Mikulec:
there are also people that are not normal and want to use their phones on trips or in situations when they have no charging opportunities :)
[Galaxy S III General] flypubec:
@OP: Your post is missleading. Removed bloatware has nothing to do with the battery life.

After intensive research I came to the conclusion that there are only 2 major issues for the battery drain on vanilla stock ROM (JB DLI8).

Those are:

1) Samsung push service : SOLUTION -> simply unstall it, bacause you don't need it anyway (e.g. via Titanium backup).

2) Wrong fast dormancy setting : SOLUTION -> use https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gokhanmoral.fastdormancytoggle.i9300&hl=sl from gokhanmoral to toggle it to the setting supported by your carier. BE careful not to toggly it exactly the oposite.

With these 2 mods on stock DLI8 I get less than 0.5% battery drain while idle over an hour.(Mail sync set to every 30 mins)
[Galaxy S III General] Iffay:
Does this work on the omega rom by any chance. i only need at least a full day worth or battery
[Galaxy S III General] avdaga:
It should work on any stock-based rom, also omega.
[Galaxy S III General] Crowds:
My thoughts...really.

I don't wanna sound rude, yet i had to agree with some when they say "buy a Nokia (old one of course:)" or just "disconnet for one or two years".

It's virtually impossible with the kind of gadgets we have these days any battery last more than 1 day.

I've made my own mods and roms from scratch in recent past for X10, so u may consider at least that i known what i'm talking about.

The only way, no mather witch brand you like or believe its the best, is by f#@king your screen. Period. That is the main reason why every phone just last 1 day with "normal" use.

If you've payed attention i've used "normal" expression witch means phone, mail, sync and didn't wrote "heavy use" that will include music, YouTube, videos, etc.

Like i said. I've made my own work in the past and still do some minor (?) changes and i must say this: i'm glad if my phone last one working day from 7AM till 23PM. Yes! Working day, that's why i dont't develop anything.

If you or anyone else state that your/his phone had better battery life than this i make two considerations:

1. You're (not you in particular) a liar, or;

2. You simply don't use your phone as you can.

If you dont consider that you belong at the first consideration than..."buy a Nokia..."

Another thought:

You just bought this (or similar) phone for a status matter or money it's something that's really cheap for you (another 2nd choice).

Like i said...just my 2 cents.

Cheers

[Galaxy S III General] manemzjum:
No way you have devised a way for your phone not to use battery while not using it

What's your next project you gonna design a wireless device that can change my tv station using infer red lasers

Oh wait both of these already exist

Charging your phone and putting it in airplane mode for 23 hrs your fooling no-one
[Galaxy S III General] avdaga:
In the screenshot you can see the mobile network signal - if it was airplaine mode, things would have been different, don't you think? I rest my case.
[Galaxy S III General] avdaga:
Thanks for the reply, I figured that the context was not entirely clear. I have modified the first post to clear this up.
[Galaxy S III General] barondebxl:
No it's not. You do not make any sense and stop acting like you're smart talking. Up to 5 days really? It's 2012 dude everyone has access to a wall plug. I don't think you realise how stupid this thread is. We buy these phone to use them not to look at them and say hi. Next time you wanna help, try to find a way for us to fill up our gas tank only once and be able to drive for 3 months, that will help. SMH....
[Galaxy S III General] xmirai:
Well... Just saying, my S3 was 100% 3 days ago. Today it's 21%... That's just DI5 JB Leak.
[Galaxy S III General] b-eock:
This statement is completly false, if you cant get over a day then you have a bad phone/battery or wakelock keeping it up.
[Galaxy S III General] muhammad.ali123:
I am totally on stock un rooted rom.

Without any modifications S3 can go upto 6 days as i have 20% left after 5 days and three hours.

It includes almost 2 hours of screen on time and more than 2 hours of talk time.
[Galaxy S III General] lukesky:
why waste all that time debloating a rom when u already have a nicely debloated rom at your disposal? Look for HyperGalaxy.... there are ICS and JB versions and both are equally good.

another thing is wanamlite is anything but lite.. even if you debloat it fully, it's not going to come anywhere near HyperGalaxy's standard..
[Galaxy S III General] avdaga:
That is quite amazing - what is your firmware version?

Could you please post some more details about your configuration; e.g. what background services you are using like google sync, whatsapp, etc..
[Galaxy S III General] veyka:
Thread cleaned.

If you wish to agree or disagree with the OP of a thread, you may do so, but keep your comments constructive and on topic, just posting "this is rubbish because I say so" isn't helpful.
[Galaxy S III General] Mithrandir007:
Is that with the standard battery or an extended one?

My battery life is good, but not that good.
[Galaxy S III General] muhammad.ali123:
I am using ICS 4.0.4.

My firmware is XXBLFB.

power saving mode is On

Use mobile data only to check mails or update weather and than off it.

no other sync is currently in use.

---------- Post added at 02:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:43 PM ----------

This one is with orignal stock battery. No extended battery used.
[Galaxy S III General] MagicOnline:
this explains everything :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S III General] Mithrandir007:
No push, no sync, and no mobile data except when you check mails and weather, I understand better why you get such a good battery life.. though that setup wouldn't work at all for me.

Power saving on probably also reduces your CPU performance (if you activated that).. I bought the S3 partly because of its performance.

Personally, my phone gets through the day easily, with at least 60% remaining when charging the phone before I go to bed (7AM to about midnight or 1AM).

That includes full sync + push (data on at all times), 2 email accounts, some browsing, phone calls, wifi always on (though only really active when I'm at home, since at work, 3G is used instead), power saving off, some gps navigation usage, ...

I prefer using the phone to its full potential and charging every night than limiting the phone to make it last several days, though I understand you might have different habits and don't need to use it the same way :)
[Galaxy S III General] JJEgan:
I prefer using the phone to its full potential and charging every night than limiting the phone to make it last several days, though I understand you might have different habits and don't need to use it the same way

And that's the key different users different habits different apps = different battery usage .

However cracking post from the OP from those that don't know how to debloat .

hi,

after my gsm problem

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1892837

... i decided to flash a new sbf, i had 198_6 before i did the pudding and rooting and all..

so now i have tried 198_7 .

and during the posses , the rsd lite wrote "please boot up the phone menualy" , then i pull and insert the battery (because the phone was on the m logo) and boot up.

the phone is now is a boot loop.

i can still access the rsd, but what to do? cause i tried the sbf again and same result

You probably missed one very important thing!

It's called - Wipe Data/Factory Reset
[Motorola Photon 4G] kikloo:
Hi,

Its a easy one.

Boot into Android Recovery Mode.

Press Vol Down + Power Button and then scroll to Android Recovery

Once you're in recovery mode you will see Android Logo.

At that point Press the Vol Down + Vol Up button togather.

You will get menu thing.

Do Wipe Data / Factory Reset.

Once its done. Reboot System and that should fix it.

Hope it helps.

Thanks.

[Motorola Photon 4G] kikloo:
Hi,

Just root your phone using the OCR file I have attached. Its pretty simple.

Just extract the files somewhere on your HDD in a folder. Then run root.bat file. Be sure that phone in is Debug Mode.

After you have rooted. Install app. like Root Explorer etc.

Once Root Explorer or similar app in installed goto /system/apps

Delete sprintconnmoplugin.apk and sprintconnmoplugin.obex

Thats it. Now restart your phone and you're done.

Thanks.
[Motorola Photon 4G] havlaz:
thanks mate.. i did it..

but i still getting any signal..

and yesterday everything was just fine.. i had cm7 and was happy..

maybe flashing cm7 will work it out? (i don't think so)

any ideas?
[Motorola Photon 4G] kikloo:
Did you download the proper stock SBF or some other ?? The stock always works for me no matter from which ROM i am coming back. I think most probably its related to the settings or the SBF you rsd'ed.

[Motorola Photon 4G] kikloo:
Hi,

Its correct. Are you sure that you deleted the 2 files I told you to delete ?

Also use Root Uninstaller app from market to remove sprint apps. maybe they are causing the conflict.

It looks for me like a radio problem. Have you ever flashed radio instead of the stock one?

יעני האם ניסית להתקין רדיו אחר במקום הרדיו שבא עם המכשיר.

Try the KKDI radio from the link you posted, it's not only for devices in the US.

Another thing you can try is to type *#*#4636#*#* on your phone app, and then go to "Phone Information", and under "Set preferred network type", make sure that the set type is "GSM Auto".

I am in the US (Hawaii) and i have been flashing CDMA phones and unlocking global ones for over a year now. I just unlocked my phone for Simple Mobile (GSM MVNO) and I was having the same problems, try the *#*#4636 thing, etc and hit Turn Off Radio and then Set Preferred Network Type to GSM Auto PRL. then turn radio back on. If that dont work, maybe its your rom man. I went through 5 different roms and finally found one that stuck. Is your Photon a U.S. Sprint one or is it an international version?
[Motorola Photon 4G] yairku:
There's no international version of the Photon.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] helimadness:
Hi All.

I found the perfect thread but as I am new here I cant post my question there.

I am trying to root an HTC Sensation ICS 4 Hboot 1.27.0000. Brought in China and doesnt have the android market. My god why is that blocked in China.....

I found the thread on how to do it problems are

1) when I try and unlock the bootloader with HTCdev.com It only has s710d (china telecom) as the closest option Mine in settings and under the battery says its a HTCZ710e Close but not sure if close enough

2) /When I tried to root it I got to the bit where it says change the name to CWM5827 and copy that to the data recoveries folder. Change the name where? In the Onex App you cant change the name. The command box in windows only says press any key to continue and closes as soon as you press a key. In the folder there is already CWM5827. In the Onex app it is called CWM 5.8.2.7 Touch Doomrecovery B1 (custom cwm) Interm (custom cwm) stock.

Not sure if this is the right one anyway?

Any advice appreciated.
