SO HI all!

I am running tasks rom! Just got it, and all! Fresh install. My issue is battery. Been running for 6 hours now, already down to 87 percent, with just 20 mins of screen time! Its just been sitting idle!!! Is this normal!? Am I doing something wrong? all help appreciated! thanks :D
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CamFlawless:
No issues there. There is no way for you to accurately gauge your battery life if you just got a ROM as more cycles are needed to make a valid assessment. Also, the numbers you provide seem perfectly reasonable. I would relax and enjoy the ROM ;)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] imcol:
so you get those NUmbers as well?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
1.) There is a dedicated Q & A thread for my ROM already. Why start a new thread?

2.) I already told you. You need to give it time to recalibrate itself. You're too impatient and need to let the phone do it's thing before making judgments about battery life dude.

3.) 1-3% per hour battery drain on idle for 6 hours? That's pretty good. What do you expect? It's a tiny computer that fits in your pocket. If you want something just for the battery life then get a flip phone.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SvetKrasivaya:
I'm a complete noob, and I probably should have done more research before doing this - Sorry for annoying post if this has occurred already, I couldn't find a post with a solution.

What I did:

Installed adb tools, unlocked bootloader, then rooted it. Then I tried installing cm10.1 following this guy's method(I don't have s-off) :

wwjoshdew - How To Install CyanogenMod 10.1 Android 4.2.1 Jelly Bean on the HTC Evo 4g LTE (Sorry, since I'm a noob, i can't post external links)

Everything seemed as if it was going according to plan but when I got to lock screen on first boot, I couldn't touch anything on the screen. Only volume control and power buttons on the outside functioned.

Also, I'm on twrp v2.4.1.0 and I flashed the rom using a app called flash gui on the phone. I made a backup as well, but after restore to backup, the phone just keeps restarting incessantly.

Can anyone help me, explaining in depth what I can do? I'm a complete noob, and I'm sorry if this post is annoying! I've seen that noob video.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] om4:
Flash gui is only for flashing the kernel, the rom still needs to be flashed separately. If you're running the latest firmware update then you can't use roms that require older binaries (basically all aosp). Either wait for the source to drop, flash an updated sense rom, or go to the mean bean thread and look for the instructions for downgrading the touch panel update.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SvetKrasivaya:
Do you know how I can just revert back to regular android. I mean I can not do anything except boot into bootloader and recovery, I can't reset or restore. cheers and thanks
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] om4:
No first hand experience and I haven't looked into the issue too much. Better to check the mean bean thread in android development forum
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mito8485:
Download and flash a 3.16 based sense rom and you should be fine. I ran into the same problem since i downloaded the lastest twrp. Also don't forget to wipe before installing.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SvetKrasivaya:
How do I flash, like through fastboot devices then fastboot flash boot... in cmd on my pc?

Also, how do i know if the rom is 3.16 based?

Cheers and thanks mate.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mito8485:
You can download the lastest meanbean v3.06 rom, or any rom that is 3.16 software based. Usually it says it right by the name of the rom on the header. Place the rom zip on your sd card. I usually put all my files in the downloads folder. Then boot into recovery and do a factory reset, then wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, and wipe system. Then go to install and flash the meanbean rom you have in your downloads folder. Then reboot. You should be good to go. Since your S-on try staying with roms that contain the s-on installer. Most 3.16 based roms have the S-ON installer but in the event that one does not you will have to flashboot the boot.img of the rom prior to flashing the rom through recovery. Note: You can only run roms that are based on the latest 3.16 software.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SvetKrasivaya:
How can I put the rom on the sdcard if I can't excess anything on the phone except for the bootloader...? I can't even access the recovery, because it has become relocked. pretty much all i can access is the bootloader and fastboot, nothing eles, I can't even restore to normal htc sense firmware.

Cheers and thanks

Take the card out and put it in your computer, dl it to the card and then put back on your phone.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SvetKrasivaya:
Thanks mate, I'll give that a try. I didn't think about taking the sd out jaja Do what exactly should i do once i put the rom on the sd?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mito8485:
Check out this thread. I believe you can flash the rom through fastboot. I have not done this though. So proceed with caution. Remember it has to be 3.16 based.

http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=Flashing_Guide_-_Android

ROM Flashing

Obtain a ROM of your choice, and note the location on your computer.

reboot your device into fastboot mode via one of the following options.

adb reboot bootloader (requires USB debugging to be turned on).

power off the device then back on with 'vol up' + power button.

Wipe your device.

fastboot -w

Update your ROM.

fastboot update </path/to/your/RomFile.zip>

Your phone will update and automatically reboot into the new ROM.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] tonyevo52:
Follow the steps that Milo put above and hopefully it works. Whenever I screwed mine up and wouldn't recover, I would run the 3.15ruu to put it back to stock.. However if you are on 3.16 I don't believe there is an ruu for it yet, I know captain throwback had something in works though, search for him and check his threads as a last ditch effort.. Best of luck.

Mito that is...

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] tonyevo52:
Awesome... Now did you get it back to stock or did the cm10.1 work for you finally, curious what you did. Still learning stuff myself.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SvetKrasivaya:
I'm actually on meanbean latest version.

I couldn't do anything else except this

What I did:

- Put the micro sd card in pc

- copied meanbean rom to sd

- put sd card back in phone

- put phone into fastboot

-on pc, I extracted the boot.img from meanbean rom and placed it into android-sdk folder,

- simultaneously pressed shift and right clicked in folder to open command prompt

- in command prompt, type fast boot devices

- then fastboot flash boot boot.img

- on phone, put phone into recovery(twrp) then I installed the rom.

then the phone booted as normal. I'm working to see if I can install the cm10.1 on meanbean, I'm gonna test it to see what happens. I hoped I was able to help.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] garfilo:
CM will not work with the latest touch panel update. See Captain Throwback's thread in Android Development to downgrade your touch panel software to run non-3.16 roms.

It doesn't have to necessarily be through Linux, but if you follow dirty Racun's method on how to s-off and flash 3.15, and the n re-root through Dev, then you should be able to flash cm 10.1 through recovery with no problems except the few bugs that cm10.1 comes with.

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] Magik_Breezy:
I'm not sure of the voltage of the I9305 but the more volts = faster charging but hotter and hotter means a shorter life for the battery but it should be fine, I would trade it for faster charging. For amps, I have no clue and please correct me if I'm wrong anybody.

I'm pretty sure that you are saying the opposite way. :)

You can use more Amp but not more voltage.

More Amp - charges quickly.

More voltage - could blow your device.

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] anybuddy:
AW: [Q] Charge with 5V/2A..?

In principle, the battery would load faster at higher charging current when the battery is capable of fast charging. If not, could reduce the battery life. I believe according to the charging control of Samsung, a current limiter is installed that can always draw only 1 amp. So it brings no benefit to using the charger of the tab. It may also be that the charging control of the current is limited so that is not loaded. The phone should not be harmed.

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] tissot:
The phone take what Amp it needs.. No more than its made for. 2A is only what the maximum out is for the charger.

You could make a charger with 50A, the phone still dont take more.

The volt is the value that need to be fixed though.

All phones charged via a usb needs 5V, no more, no less.(Usb =5V allways) Most batterys now days is something like 3.7V. Correct me if Im wrong.

Any way, you need a couple more volts in the charger than the battery to charge it.

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] fred_up:
I have had an HTC HD2 and used it's charger to charge my SGSII and now my SGSIII.

The time taken to charge with that is about the same as the SGSIII charger.

The charging circuits on the phone are smart enough to know that you are charging from a mains' adapter instead of an USB output from a computer and thus adapts the current draw from the system.

I previously did tests on the HD2 regardsing charging times and even with bigger supplies that the 1A one from HTC, it did not charge any quicker.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] tissot:
That charging circuit is made to cooperate with the battery and the rest of the phone.

So only difference you will notice is slower charge time if you are using a to weak charger that cant deliver the right amp.

As mentioned earlier you could use a 50A charger with out any faster charging time. Amps is allmoust of no interest if its not to weak.

Look at electricity as water. Amp is like how many liters of water a sertain pipe could deliver. Volts is more like how strong the flow is. To mouch pressure will destroy the flower. But with Amps you could pretend that the flower demands a certain amount of water and it will not suck more just becaus it could get more.

How are you incorporating them? You might need to fix permissions when you flash them or change the permissions in the updater script. What are you using as your stock rom?

Edit: Have you run a logcat? That could give you a starting point to start looking.

Edit #2: Double check when you recompile framework/apks. Sometimes when something just doesn't show or breaks like that it didn't compile correctly with your apk-tool.

Ok you can start laughing at me now. . All I did was take the changed files out of the zip file and put then in my rom zip file ...

Would the permissions not being right cause it to break it all together like that. . I think I remember the update script for the all apps mod set permissions. . I will start with that and see how it goes.
