[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Vince:
Il semble qu'en France on soit complètement arriéré en matière de PDA et Téléphonie mobile.

J'ai abandonné l'idée de trouver un XDA 64 Mo en français avec les dernières ROM depuis longtemps.

J'ai donc acheté un XDA en anglais en angleterre, qui marche parfaitement avec Itineris y compris en GPRS.

La langue n'est pas un problème car on peut ionstaller tout ce qu'on veut en français.

[Asus Transformer TF700] helfrez:
I don't want to jump to any conclusions, but it does kinda make sense. I am seeing what "appears" to be a pretty solid increase in battery life during browsing and bulk transfers. I was able to download 3.5gb of data over wifi at about 1MB/s (around 1hr of nonstop transfer, data for Horn and NOVA3) and only knock off 17% of the battery with only 2bars. I am currently at 3:35/5:47 screen-on for the day and still have 68% left. The nonstop pulling is worse than regular browsing, and at this pace getting to the 8hrs of browsing seems like an actual possibility. As I am running on Balance with CleanROM 3.4.4 at the moment, switching to powersave could probably eek out addition gains.

IF YOU BLOW SOMETHING UP DO NOT BLAME ME...ETC ETC ETC

If anyone wants to check this out, and see if it's just fluke, here is what I have tried.

..pre-post revision...I started out doing the changes manually via terminal, but found some resources on XDA and the play store to make it a bit easier, so I am linking that stuff instead. A user has a pretty good guide for the Thunderbolt that I retested with and it works fine.

Just follow the steps here Solved: WiFi TXpower app error issue with missing iwconfig file to get the iwconfig file, and the links for the WIFI TXpower app.

I used Root explorer, so renaming the iwconfig.txt, moving it to xbin, and changing perms was trivial. As for WIFI Txpower, I have been running on 4db(398 DBM) with no really noticeable problems. I imagine it may have a steeper dropoff based on distance, but the plastic strip on the TF700 really fixed the range issue.

..UPDATE: I have noticed that when you turn the device on after a wifi sleep event, it seems to come back up full blast. So my estimates may be off by quite a bit, as I didn't check it between downloads and browsing sessions. Tom make the settings stick, there may need to be some modifications to the init scripts. I just wanted to get this info into the hands of more people to poke at, and determine if this is something worth adding to Aroma for our TF700 roms.
[Asus Transformer TF700] helfrez:
Day one with lots of power switching back to lower levels. Balanced mode with stock _that at interactive + row. Auto brightness.
[Asus Transformer TF700] yew123:
Looks promising
[Asus Transformer TF700] MartyHulskemper:
Thanks for reporting this -- and thanks for trying. ;)

Which interface name does it report in your case -- I get a wlan0 interface name instead of the eth0 reported in the original thread. I just picked wlan0, as it stays there even if I pick "Auto". :)

EDIT: I used Root Explorer succesfully -- no trouble remounting /system as R/W, so the one fluke I found may reside in the original thread. ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] helfrez:
Yes, it should be wlan0 for the wireless. The biggest problem is that after the interface goes to sleep (screen timeout), it will come back up at full burn, and you have to turn it down again. It will need to be cook into the ifup scripts to make it survive.
[Asus Transformer TF700] snypa:
thanks for the tip! seems to be the real deal!

i had a test and notice only the 4 and 11 seem to line up with our tf700's ... is same for you?

stock @ 1496dBm

4@398dBm

11@1122dBm

others don't seem to change on mine?... and no button for getting back to stock(full power)...
[Asus Transformer TF700] helfrez:
Yes I think we really just need to call true power via dbm to be accurate. The wifi power app was a quick way for people to validate what I was experiencing. I want to do some more playing around over the weekend and maybe a mod for cleanrom to handle the sleep issue. I am seeing a pretty significant drop in power drain while browsing and doing anything with wifi. I am having to force usage patterns to drain the battery versus just firing up a browser or online game.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jupppo:
You can use the command line to change the parameters. Use "iwconfig wlan0 txpower 1"to get down to 100dbm. Which works great as lo g as you are near the router.

"iwconfig wlan0 txpower 15" brings you back to 1496dbm
[Asus Transformer TF700] jupppo:
I am running this now with lowest settings for almost 24h.

I am not seeing any improvements in battery life.
[Asus Transformer TF700] MartyHulskemper:
It currently resets on (at least wifi) sleep, so you shouldn't be seeing any improvement unless you kept your poor 700 awake all those 24 hours. ;)

The criterion is the "screen on" time, which may well be longer with the mod in place and active. Don't forget to activate it every time you wake up the 700.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jhannah01:
I'm not sure when it was incorporated, but I know the 'Wi-Fi optimization' option in the advanced Wi-Fi settings effectively does this dynamically. If I recall correctly, it showed up after the last stable release but I've certainly noticed a big difference in battery life since I keep my Wi-Fi on always.. and no need to iwconfig depending on how much traffic you're planning on pushing! Anyway, it would be under Settings -> Wi-Fi -> (Menu) -> Advanced -> Wi-Fi optimization and that seems to do the same sort of thing and takes into consideration some of the weird PM issues related to the hotspot AP code. Just my two cents though..
[Asus Transformer TF700] jupppo:
Yes thank you, but that was mentioned earlier already and I took it into consideration and switched back on every use.

I have 6h screen time with reduced tx settings as well as without.

Really no effect here. I also reduced to 100dbm.
[Asus Transformer TF700] helfrez:
The Wi-Fi optimization option is not available in stock roms. I think that this is essentially what the non-Asus roms are doing with their wifi. The problem is that none of the non-Asus roms have made it to the 100% functionality mark, compared to something like CleanROM. If the day arises that they do, I would drop the stock rom in a NY minute, but until then, they are not complete replacements for me.

That being said, will you conserve power via wifi when running a aosp rom with these adjustments, probably not, but the aosp roms have never given me the battery life of CleanROM to begin with so it balanced out. I am having no problems breaking 8hrs screen on time with a stock rom and wifi adjustments.
[Asus Transformer TF700] helfrez:
What rom are you using? If you are not on a stock rom like CleanROM, see my previous post.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jupppo:
Latest CleanROM version. iwconfig is working and new settings gets confirmed, but I have 0 power savings from it.
[Asus Transformer TF700] helfrez:
No disrespect intended, but I doubt it is zero. It may be minimal and contingent on usage, which is why the feature is available in aosp roms. I doubt this is the optimal way of using it. What I can say is with my usage patterns I was getting an average of about 5-6hrs absolute tops on balanced with stock _ that kernel and auto brightness, and now I can normally get over 7of heavy browsing consistently.

YMMV
[Asus Transformer TF700] jupppo:
Whether it is 0 or 1% doesn't really matter for me. What matters is that is practically has no impact. I tried on 2 transformers now (one with CROMI and one with stock).

So it would be interesting to see the difference and see why your prime has significant power savings and others not

Unless there is some movement I will throw iwconfig from my tablets.

Anyway, thanks for trying.
[Asus Transformer TF700] helfrez:
I'm not using a Prime this is the TF700 Infinity forums. And feel free to toss it from your tablet though every other none stock rom includes it for a reason. If you have nothing further to add other than "my smartassv2 cfq hundkernel undervolted overclocked device doesn't magically have 10hrs of screen on time", please dismiss yourself from this thread. All devices are not made equal, and maybe your particular device(s) are not effected by these changes.

What is a fact is that different people have different experiences with these devices, some perform better than others in different situations. What I can state is that I am able to consistently get over the previous 6hr average, with my specific device, by babysitting the txpower.

I posted this information FYI and YMMV, so can we just leave it at that. If it is irrelevant, and doesn't work for anyone, the thread will age off of the page by itself. Thanks

Welp, that escalated quickly. ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] stratowhammy:
Hi, I'm sure there is a thread, but I didn't find one using google or the forum search. I want to make sure that I don't screw the pooch with my phone, I rooted using Busybox and I have the superuser app now installed, but I didn't change the kernel at all. I was wondering if I can still load custom roms on the phone now that I have rooted it, even though the stock kernel is on my phone.

Also, it seems as though many of the posts I've found refer to using a windows machine, I'm using ubuntu, and I only have one other machine that runs something other than that, and its osx. If I wanted to flash the kernel, is there a good post somewhere that describes how to do this in linux, preferably a debian based linux?

I have a Galaxy S2, i777 (which I guess the entire board is dedicated to, so that should be obvious). I'm posting because I want to be super careful and not brick my phone. I'll make a nand backup before doing anything, but now that I've rooted, can I just install any custom rom that works with the i777, or am I limited to certain ones because I have the stock kernel. Does the galaxy phone custom rom (I think thats what its called) work with the stock kernel on the i777?

Thanks for any answers anyone has, and if I just get a post reference, that's fine, I just couldn't find it after hours of sifting.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Pirateghost:
First. Read the stickies.

Second. After reading the stickies you will find that you can't flash any ROM until you flash a kernel with cwm cooked in.

Third. After you have read the above you should know exactly what tools you can use to get there.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Phalanx7621:
To add to what Pirate said, or rather further elaborate , our phones have recovery in the kernel. So with ours you don't flash recovery separately. PM me if u have questions and I'll answer them there rather than in the thread. ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] stratowhammy:
Thank you! I will look for the stickies, and I may take you up on that PM.

Sorry for my bad english.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joooe:
Just put the zip file in the "sdcard" without unziping it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Xhexus:

As you probably now, gnex doesn't have a micro sd card slot. I just have "internal storage", i watched a tutorial and did exactly like that guy.

Search youtube for "How To Load a Custom ROM on the Samsung Galaxy Nexus" i'm not allowed to post url's
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Quinny899:
Adb works in recovery, if you used fastboot to unlock the bootloader of your device you should have adb:

adb push <rom_name.zip> /sdcard/

In a terminal/CMD on your computer with your device plugged in

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jsgraphicart:
When you select install zip from sdcard, do you get a list of all your folders on your SD card? Do you know how to navigate to the location of your .zip? If it doesnt show up, then your either in the wrong location or its not a .zip file. Thats really the only two things it could be.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Xhexus:
No

I don't have a list of all my folders. I'm pretty sure i'm not in the wrong location and yes,it is a zip file.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jsgraphicart:
Well something is wrong if you aren't getting a list of all your folders on your SD card. What exactly happens when you select "install from SD card"? Just a blank screen?

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dtweek:
Hi. I have just received my brand new nexus 10 32gb. I have a strange problem. When in portrait mode with the power button at top right I can not use home, back, menu buttons but I can swipe down the notifications from the top. When I invert this so still in portrait mode but with power button bottom left I can then use home etc, but can't swipe down notifications. In landscape it works both ways.

I have tried the obvious powered down and up, also did a factory reset to no avail.

I've just called Google who are going to send me some shipping labels to send it back and get replaced, but I was wondering if any of you clever chaps on the forum could recommend a quick fix so I don't have to send back.

Many thanks.

Follow the below approach to install the drivers on Windows 8:

1. Go to the right bottom corner of the desktop and wait for the side menu to appear. When it's there click on the gear icon with the title "Settings".

2. Now click on the entry "More PC Settings", then click on the entry "General".

4. Scroll down to "Restart now" (under "Advanced startup") and click it.

5. Wait a bit for a menu.

6. Now click "Troubleshoot", then "Advanced Options" and after that click "Windows Startup Settings".

7. Click on "Restart" and wait for the profit to happen.

When the computer restarts, select the option "Disable driver signature enforcement". After it finally booted into the operating system you can install the unsigned driver. After you've installed the driver reboot once again and you're done.

It did the same thing with my MT6577 (Wiko Cink PEAX), so I connected it with a battery and without holding VOL+. Then "MT65xx preloader" appeared in device manager then disappeared (once). It is normal that it disappears. When you start Flash_tool and when you click Download (or whatever you want to do) THEN you connect the phone (in off state), and the flash operation will succeed.

Already tried all those flash methods in different sequences (with battery, without battery) but my phone just connect\disconnect all the time - i can't even install the VCOM driver.
