[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djshotty:
Few things you can do to solve this...

Disable Google account sync - only sync when you add a new Contact or want to read your Gmail,

Keep Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and GPS disabled until you really need them,

Check to see if your kernel isn't overclocking your CPU - some kernels automatically 'clock' the chip from the moment the phone turns on,

Check your display settings re: kernel - some settings can run 'display enhancers' that make your graphics look great whilst chewing battery,

Disable Fast Dormancy for your modem - there's plenty of threads/posts about this,

Go into Settings->Apps and make sure there aren't a heap of apps running in background (Task Manager helps with this 'apps killing' too)

For battery life, I've heard NeatROMLite and SlimBean are good...

Hope that helps...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Namroid:
Hi, if you keep wifi, data network, blue tooth, gps ect, turn on, then the battery drains very quickly, either without using the mobile.

And if you keep mentioned above turned off and battery drains very quickly then it should be battery problem. Rom affects on battery when you changes the settings like cpu performance, and set min or max values ect. But usually rom not affacts.

You can use, juice defender and some other apps on play store to save battery life.

I'm using {rom} mysterious Pac i9100, and I'm quite happy with it.

Above is my personal experience, hope it will helps you.

Sorry for bad English.

Hi, install gemini app manager and disable autorun on almost all your application and obviously disable all automatic task you don't need on your phone.

Bye!

U can also try disabling Media Scanner by downloading "Disable Media Scanner" from playstore (requires root).

And pls avoid asking for 'best roms'. :)

[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dmitriusan:
Hi all.

Is it possible (on HD+) to replace the stock ROM with Verygreen's one on completely? I mean being able to remove SD card completely (not only after boot) and removing all (unnecessary now) B&N files to free space. So I get full speed of internal storage and a plenty of free space.

ATM I have a working Verygreen's SD setup and read some thereads about Hybrid setup, but it seems that Hybrid setup still saves almost all files (except swap and installed apps) on SD.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
Short answer, no.

The interior memory and bootloaders are pretty much locked down by B&N. No one has figured out how to do that yet.

[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sorrowuk:
I think we could use the internal memory for everything and just have the custom kernel on the sd card as this would allow the exploit to work. This kernel would then need to point to the internal memory instead of the sd card.

leapinlar , how did you modify /data to put it on the internal memory.

Do you think I could also move /system to internal memory using the same modification you did for /data and it would work ?
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
It is not the kernel you modify to point to internal memory, it is the ramdisk. And the kernel is not what bypasses security, it is the 2nd bootloader. And theoretically you could do the same with SD /system by housing it inside the stock /data like the SD /data is. But then you would need to modify the ROM zip to install to that internal /system housed in the stock /data and use a modified ROM ramdisk to recognize both /system and /data internally. But you would have to still boot initially from SD to be able to use the 2nd bootloader to bypass security.

But I'm still not convinced what benefit that gives you. Sure, you could then temporarily take the SD out, but you need it any time you boot. And it is not saving you internal space, it is taking more. If you try to mess with stock to free up space, it will reset and wipe everything.

[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dmitriusan:
Ok, thanks for replies.

At least, what folders on the internal flash may be safely deleted if I fon't like/don't use stock B&N ROM? Just to save space.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
Everything in /int-data except /media, which stores your media files, and if running the Hybrid, /cm_data which stores your Hybrid files, can safely be deleted. You can delete them with your root file manager when running CM10. But if you have not installed any apps on stock, you are only going to save a few hundred MB. If you do delete things, that means you have to set up and register stock again if you boot to stock.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3to4:
Hello,

I am not 100% sure if this is the right forum to ask for help for my problem.

I bought an EDEN TAB (ET701), which is a tablet sold in Japan,and it comes with ICS 4.0.3.

The system installed is just unusable. So, I need to customize a lot. I was able to root it, but there is no CWM recovery for this model, as there are not many users.

By doing a lot of searches, I found out the following web site, where ii looks like I can make a custom recovery.

http://builder.clockworkmod.com/

The problem is that I am rather a beginner in Android, and I don't really understand how I should proceed, and I have some questions.

If I am not mistaken, I need to take the following files from my tablet. What is the easiest way to to this?

1) Recovery image file

2) recovery.fstab

3) graphics.c

4) postrecoveryboot.sh

Could someone provide me with a comprehensive guide? I have some some modifications in the past using ADB or Terminal Emulator. So, if there is a guide, I would like to try. Thank you.
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] link68759:
I need people to confirm this for me. Reply and let me know if this worked for you, reporting your free space before, during, and after the install. Since free space does not update, you have to keep opening and closing the details page for free space in the storage settings.

I believe that putting a XAP (freely downloadable from the windows phone store website) onto your SD card and installing *from* the SD card is more efficient. This might help people install large games, especially if they have an issue with a large "Other" taking up space.

I have 264MB of free space left on my 820. If I try to go install Final Fantasy (92MB) it won't let me: it says I'm out of space. However, if I install it from the SD card, it just installs!

However, you still need enough space for the extracted XAP. I kept checking the free space as it was installing, and it went as low as 50MB before jumping back up to 120MB.

Going by that, it seems you need roughly 2.4x the size of the app in free space in order to install it. I'm fairly sure the XAP is *not* copied into local storage, which it would be if you were downloading from the store. This is because I could not install asphalt 7 from the store when I had OVER 3GB free, which is over 3x the size of the xap itself (maybe even 4x!). Of course, I don't know if my findings scale up and I'm not keen on uninstalling asphalt 7 only to find that I can't install it again.

[Micromax A110] rajenpurohit:
Updated as on May 04, 2013 sharing working solution

At the first of this post, I would like to give full CREDIT of this solution to 'Nishroy' on whose post I have developed this step-by-step guide. I have used the same on my A110 and sharing the steps that I have followed.

Prerequisites:

On Mobile : i) it must be rooted ii) it must have root file explorer installed (i used 'Total Commander' - you can download it from Play store).

On Computer (Desktop/Laptop) : A stable Hex Editor Application. I used 'HxD - Hexeditor Ver. 1.7.7.0' on my laptop running on Windows 8 64 Bit OS.

Step wise Guide

Step # 1 : Switch on WiFi adapter on your phone.

Step # 2 : Go to 'About Phone' from Settings and note your phone's Wi-Fi MAC Address mentioned there. It should lok like xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (xx = value of Mac Add.)

Step # 3 : Switch off WiFi adapter on your phone

Step # 5 : Launch 'Total Commander' application on your phone and navigate to File system root/data/nvram/APCFG/APRDEB and copy one file named 'WIFI' from there to the SD Card of your phone

Step # 6 : Copy this file i.e. WIFI from your SD card to Desktop on your laptop/desktop

Step # 7 : Launch 'HxD-Hexeditor' on your laptop/desktop and click on OPEN or Ctrl+O and select WIFI file (copied as per Step # 6) from desktop

Step # 8 : Refer to the first raw in the opened file and go to column no. 04

Step # 9 : Insert value of your actual MAC Address (as per Step # 2) in column 04 to 09 (Ensure that none of the value is ZERO) and SAVE this change

Step # 10 : Close Hexeditor and copy changed WIFI file from your desktop to the SD card of your phone. Delete older WIFI file from SD Card before copying this file.

Step # 11 : Once the file is copied to SD card, launch Total Commander application and move this file from SD card root to File system root/data/nvram/APCFG/APRDEB

Step # 12 : Reboot your phone

Voillaaaa! Your phone's WiFi NVRAM Error is gone now. Yes, you solved it.

Please share here in this thread if you find any difficulties or problems in following these steps.

MMX A110 IMEI Problem

DO NOT CHANGE ANY OTHER DATA EXCEPT MENTION BELOW, OR ANY UNHAPPY THING CAN HAPPEN LIKE DEAD PHONE ETC. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR IT.

Micromax A110 IMEI can be found on the box or under side after removing the cover and battery you can find a sticker attached to the phone which has both IMEI numbers.

1- Rooted MTK 6577/6575 Smartphone

2- Mobile Uncle Tools from Google play store.

3- Install it and goto Engineer Mode

4- Select Engineer mode[MTK]

5- Under Connectivity Tab go to CDS information

6- Select Radio Information

7- Select Phone1 (for the first imei)

8- at the top there is a command line which begins “AT+” just type there “AT +EGMR=1,7,”IMEI_1″ (instead of IMEI_1 put your first imei number)

9- hit send command

10- You will / may get a confirmation that "sent to mSend".

11-Now come back and select “Phone2″

12-at the top there is a command line which begins “AT+” just type there “AT +EGMR=1,10,”IMEI_2″ (instead of IMEI_2 put your second imei number)

13-Then just reboot the phone.

14-Dial ” *#06#” to Check Imei.

step 4: select modem image and ap image in the folder where you extract the ROM .

step 5: now select wifi Mac address in function

step 6: now select start it will ask you for wifi Mac . enter the Mac address without ":" and press enter.

step 7: now switch off your phone and connect it to PC it will take 5 to 10 seconds to complete the processing.

my wifi chip: MT6628 v1.9 (learned from engineering mode MTK) it has a MTK6589 cpu bytheway.

no mather what you did with the WIFI file you have to correct the permissions after copying them to their folder in nvram.

woking WIFI file permissions for me is:

Location: /data/nvram/APCFG/APRDEB
