[EVO 4G General] BobWalker:
The placement of the wireless router is the main factor in determining the quality of your 802.11 signal. If the router is placed high up in a room close to the places where you will be connecting most often and the door to the room is left open as much as possible, you will get the best signal coverage. You should also scan the 2.4 GHz spectrum for other wireless signal that could interfere with your own. Wiffi Analyzer from the Play Store is useful to help identify possible sources of wireless interference on different 802.11 channels. Select the channel with the least interference from other 802.11 wireless routers in the area. All channels except channel 1, 6, & 11 are also subject to side channel inteference from adjacent channels. You also want to avoid landline cordless phones and baby monitors that use a 2.4 GHz wireless base station (900 MHz and 5 GHz models are fine).

As we do not have facility of SDCARD and have a limited space on the internal SDCARD it becomes difficult to try new roms because in case of any bootloops we do not have a backup on the phone and we need to start the whole painstaking process starting from the original FTF file.

You mean something like binary image of whole phone (like Norton Ghost is doing on Windows) right? Maybe it's possible by using CWM recovery and Nandroid backup...as I remember it creates appr. 5-6 files and it's similar to binary image of current phone status...Unfortunately for locked bootloaders (= no CWM recovery possible), there is no SW for creating backup/image of whole Android :(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Andrewasth:
There is cwm for locked bootloaders! Just search for it in android development section of your phone

You can try the CWM fo locked BL from atis112 , you can make backup/restore, or you can make a full firmware backup into cwm flashable "room.zip" (arround 300MB) using the same cwm.

That's right, BUT

I installed a ROM (I don't remember which was) that had no CWM and wouldn't be rooted because of some bug or bad development, and I had to do the nightmare flash stock ftf, reboot, flash b.1.0 kernel, reboot, root, reboot, install cwm, reboot, flash kernel, reboot, turn off, flash custom rom... :\

unrooted and relocked on stock JB

stock recovery.img flashed

i think i searched enough about this, so here what is happening:

from the bootloader i scroll down to recovery then the power, THEN instead of getting the green circle i get a red rectangle.

i know i have to press power + vol up to access the blue menu [default android recovery] but it is not working.

help, thanks
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Why did you relock the bootloader , and what stock recovery did you flash ?

i flashed a recovery.img file extracted from the jb ota zip file and actually i followed a tutorial to unroot [trying to learn things].
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Seems fine, I can't get you my stock recovery at the moment to test. I have to much traffic on it so my public links have been suspended for 3 days

And you can not enter the recovery at all. I would try to flash the stock recovery again. This time take the one from the stock backup collection thread in the general section. They are located in the OP !

As far as i know you cannot enter a stock recovery. Of you where unlocked, rooted and on a custom rom before and want to restore a previous backup or backup your current stock one, you are going to have to flash a custom recovery (cwm or twrp) and restore or backup from there. Hope this solves something for you!

No that's right flashing from a stock recovery is impossible but you should be able to enter it ! And if he can't something is wrong

Still learning a lot myself mrhoffs (you've been a big help yourself btw). Didnt know you could enter stock recovery, another thing copied to my brain, THANX!

Yeah we all learn stuff here, even myself ! But it is as he described in the OP, by pressing the buttons you should leave the warning sign and enter the stock recovery. The warning sign is just a warning that you are about to enter something you should not mess with ;)

[HTC Sensation] ruefrancis:
Hi all i recently bought a htc sensationand it was on a custom rom cm10 its rooted and all that good stuff but now theres just one problem! the phone takes forever to charge!or if i reboot it it will say charged. also when im out and about and listening to music or whatever the phone drains the battery so fast. all i want to know if its a problem with the phone itself or can i fix this myself

mostly i want to fix the battery draining so quickly.HELP PLEASE!
[HTC Sensation] anasmunir:
I think the issue is with your battery..

Your battery need to be replaced..

Beamed from my beloved HTC Sensation using xda premium :D
[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
First off, I agree with Anumunir. Replace the battery. It's a used phone. The slow charging is an indicator that the battery is old and worn out. Good batteries are cheap (Search for Anker on Amazon or eBay and that's what you want)

However, the issue with the phone jumping to 100% is adding to your problems. That's kind of normal....but it can be minimized. The problem this creates is that the phone thinks it's at 100% so it shuts off the power circuit to the battery so it stops charging. But it's not at 100%. It's at like 70%. So after you unplug, it quickly starts dropping to what the actual charge is. So it looks like it's draining fast.

Here's how you minimize this...

Frist, get the new battery..because why not?

Second, drain the battery until the phone shuts off. Restart it, plug it in, and let it charge all the way. Don't reboot. Don't mess with it. Just let it charge. When it gets to 100%, keep letting it charge more for another hour.

Third, use the phone until it drains all the way down and shuts off again. Play videos or a graphically intensve game if you need to in order to burn the battery down. Don't reboot it until you use up the battery.

Fourt, plug it in and recharge it all the way back up again. Now it should be smoothed out a bit so you don't get those big battery jumps on reboot.

Don't bother with 'battery calibration' apps or wiping battery stats that someone will repond to you thread with. They don't do anything. It's an urban myth.
[HTC Sensation] ruefrancis:
Well the original battery is the original so i got one of amazon and it still does that
[HTC Sensation] CuBeRt_77:
Still the same?

Ey mate, I have the same problem. My battery is fully charged after ten hours or more. I cant afford to buy a new one, so, what did you do with yours¿?

SWAP on internal

Extend your RAM with very quick internal SWAP

v0.5 alpha​

For the moment, the script is confirmed to work only on ROMs with the chinese x-part (or data2ext) by Atroy script only

(read at the end of this post for alternative).

The only ROM I am aware of using this script out of the box is the excellent MIUI XJ x-part.

However, I intend to develop a non-loop based version shortly. It should will be compatible with most ROMs, so stay tuned.

What and Why

I decided to make a script that places the swap file on internal memory. Many people place it on SD card, but to me it seems somewhat pointless, as it hardly offers sufficient performance.

However, placing it on the internal memory makes it a much more interesting concept, because it has much better random read/write performance than even the fastest SD cards.

Warning:

placing SWAP on internal memory will subject it to frequent read/write operations which in theory shortens lifespan of internal memory chip

which you cannot replace

. This is because flash memory has limited number of write/read cycles to it. So, consider yourself warned.

HOWEVER:

1 - although true, in reality I have been unable to find any case of this actually affecting anyone's phone. There is very limited amount of data documenting real-life effect of that process, but most likely your device will be long gone before the internal memory will show any signs of wear.

2 - the script recreates the swap file on each boot using different physical blocks of memory - this means not the same blocks are always used. More on this in 'Do it right' section.

Do It Right

1. 16-32 MB of swap should suffice. If you think you need more, you are probably wrong. NEVER use all available internal space. The larger the proportion difference between swap size and total free space on the internal data partition, the more breathing space your internal memory gets, as this allows the swap file to be moved around upon every reboot, which, in turn, will make it use the same blocks more rarely, and thus extending memory chip lifespan.

2. Get rid of bloat you don't use from the system partition, ie: ringtones, live wallpapers, useless system apps. Then create a custom

hboot with smaller system partition and larger data partition. You can do it using this (also attached to this post).

3. Play around with swappiness parameter. Still, the default set by the script should serve you well. But if you are paranoid, you can use it to further decrease how often system will write to swap.

Removal

Disable execution flag on the scipt in /system/etc/init.d and delete swap.img from internal data directory (on x-part scripts it is /mnt/asec/mtddata/ )

x-part Impacted script (80% chance of rendering your ROM unbootable)

I attached a data2ext script which should offer better performance and battery life than some other a2sd scripts.

You are free to try and flash it on your ROM, but there is a good chance it won't boot any more - this is a very alpha version and I am not working on it at the moment.

Do not post complaints about it here.

I only want to hear from you if it works!
[Desire Android Development] abaaaabbbb63:
So this allocates a part of your internal memory for random access? Nice.

I personally don't need more RAM, but this could be useful.
[Desire Android Development] Androidmarketuser:
This sounds really good to my ears :good:

I will keep an eye on it.

Edit:

A small question:

So is it possible to use this for any rom if you are using data2ext for it?

Or atm only for miui xj?
[Desire Android Development] impactor:
You have to use Atroy's data2ext, which is virtually impossible to obtain because it was developed as part of chinese MIUI rom and never released as a separate script.

However, I have been working on it and I am attaching an alpha version of my adaptation of this script to the first post

Let me know if it works, but there is a good chance your ROM will not boot any more.
[Desire Android Development] Androidmarketuser:
Thanks for your answer :)

I tried to install it on CM10 by vj but it didn't work. Here are my steps:

Wiped everything except sd

Installed rom, then data2ext script and finally the swap script.

I'm on a ext4 partition if it matters.

I think (not really sure) one script has created two folders: /data/ and /data-app/ on sdcard.

Or did I just install it the wrong way?

Edit: The problem was as you expected that it stucked at HTC bootlogo.
[Desire Android Development] impactor:
If you want to try x-part script, then do not flash swap script until you confirm the x-part rom works.

Try with some GB rom. Maybe you'll have more luck.
[Desire Android Development] Androidmarketuser:
I'll try it out that way on JB first (I am addicted to the new design, can't go back:crying:), if it doesn't work I will try it out with 2.3 anyway.

---------- Post added at 08:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:31 PM ----------

Ok on JB the data2ext script doesn't seem to work, I can't boot.

I will try it out later with a GB rom, propably EuroSkank
[Desire Android Development] Androidmarketuser:
Hmm still doesn't work.

Don't have swap on internal! The number of read/writes will just kill your nand by creating loads of bad blocks.

Just my 2 cents

Kind Regards

Dave
[Desire Android Development] impactor:
And pray tell, apart from hearsay, what else do you have to support the claim that it will occur within foreseeable lifetime of the device?

I'd love to learn.
[Desire Android Development] topgeardave:
After flashing ROMs on my Desire for nearly 2 years I'm starting to get bad blocks on my nand. Having a swap partition on internal would accelerate the process of getting more bad blocks. That's what I think anyway. Check your recovery.log for bad blocks next time you wipe your phone.

Kind Regards

Dave :)
[Desire Android Development] stratoll:
I tried this on Alex-V 1.8 and nothing happened

probably did something wrong

I'll try again later
[Desire Android Development] impactor:
Thanks for the heads-up. But I gave a clear warning about in the first post. After two years, my desire has 4 bad blocks, which amounts to less than 0.5mb of internal space (less than 0.1%). Everyone should make a concious decision about using internal swap.

It will degrade the memory chip, yes, but is the degradation significant enough to care? Everyone has to decide for himself.
