hi dude,

if you have various system or user apps wakelocks , first do a monitoring it with your favorite battery monitor and analysis tool to details.

you can use traditional battery savers (i didn't recommend)

I do use greenify (paid app, but very good - the "engine" is different, doesn't kill or freeze, but hibernate system (need root) or users apps.

increase my battery and decrease unnecessary wakelocks ...

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] addisbad@gmail.com:
wakelocks

By looking at the task manager you can deduce that I have minimal number of applications running in the background and that all the bloatware has either been frozen removed of greenified.

and by looking at the battery graph you can conclude that I have wakelocks as the cpu doesn't go into deep sleep even when the screen is off

look in settings the sync settings ... maybe adjust the sync ...

localization apps related?

i did read for this and guys reported problems in volume buttom or others ... pressing or bump problems ... or (its hard to believe lol) leather cases that press buttons

Common tips - reference http://better.asksven.org/bbs-how-to/

"Following tips can help you reducing some causes of awake:

Turn your GPS off when not required to avoid apps using that expensive location source

When you are finished using an app close it with the "back" button. This will terminate it and avoid background management

Don't use any auto killer apps. If there are apps you don't want to be started or cached freeze them or configure their auto-start properly

Don't use and power saving tools like Juice Defender or Green Power: most apps do not behave properly when they can't use the data connection and will generate overhead by trying

If you don't need Wifi turn it off: in some cases Wifi is known to cause wakeups and an overhead in e.g. location services"

I recommend you try freeze these apps or greenify (my personal choice) ... or change the sync settings ... or uninstall apps

If this troubleshooting does not work ...

I do recommend install a latest firmware (your favorite ROM stock stock pre rooted or custom) ... wipe format etc ... etc ... etc

Do a backup user apps and data ... etc ...

I have one gmail account and sync is on for like 10 mins a day.

I do have a dropbox account but I haven't actually logged into the app using my phone.

I don't use a case or any other protection for my phone home and the volume buttons are seldom pressed.

gps is switched off almost all the time but the other two options in location setting are on.

I always use packet data.

I have also greenified all third party applications except whatsapp and all the stock apps that I don't use have been frozen.

I'm trying to get my ROM all smoothed out. It a catch 22 system. I can load the sony xperia walkman and get it functioning properly, or I can install gapps. If I do one I can't do the other for some reason. So, I went with the walkman. Now I'm trying to figure out how to turn the gapps zip into a good apk file to load with android tuner from my sd card. Is that even possible? I was able to manually install a few of the apk's from the zip file, but 90% wouldn't install. I assume because I haven't figured out how to install the supporting files. How can I get the play store functioning, even in a barebones state? There has to be a way... this is Android!!! Lol As I stand now, I have the play store icon, but it only loads for a fraction of a second. No message of any kind. It just doesn't work. Any suggestions would be nice. I'm on the Bleu Mynt ROM if that helps you any.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Diablo67:
You and that walkman app,hahahaha,your like me,"never give up",but anyway,open the zip file with the gapps inside and look at the folder structure,add the files to their respective folders on your rom,then you need to look at the updater script,which is in the META folder and see what needs to be symlinked and add the correct permissions for them to work correctly,you can also skip most of the bs,by just downloading what you need from the playstore,as far as gapps goes.Trial and error,you just have to keep playing with it until you get it right,it could be the rom,try a different rom also.

Can you tell me what language it is, and if 7-7ip or Notepad++ needs a plug-in to read/write or otherwise edit the script? What do I need to research here?

Thanks for that link. I can see I'm gonna have to do a lot more research before I embark on that journey. I need to get familiar with the terminology first. In the mean time, I found a pretty awesome ROM that loaded up everything I need with no problems, and it's very well put together. It's kinda plain, compared to the cool factor of the Blue Mynt theme, but it functions rather well. It's a good trade off. The ROM I have now is the Supersonic Unofficial CarbonROM by Wambo_Bombo. Have you seen this? My question is, do you have anything in the works coming down the pipe? I'd love to have something like this with your theme genius. Thank you for trying to help me sort things out with Bleu Mynt. I know you're a busy guy, and it was, and is appreciated. Let me know ASAP when you have a new release please.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Xperia_Fans:
Hey guys vote for the Xperia P Stock ROM with Gingerbread Ice Cream Sandwich Jelly Bean!!!

State the reason you vote for each version.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] XDA_Bruno:
Fine.

GB : I love the looks of it, but the UI isn't that smooth (Google starts polishing their UI from ICS)

ICS : Definitely more minimalist. And UI is extremely snappy and smooth. Apps run greatly on it and I love it.

JB : UI framerate is noticeably higher,but they actually bugs me sometimes. The UI is a bit messy for my taste, the launcher dock is very very ugly for my taste. And I love the icons on ICS much better,personally I like icons on the ICS firmware better. (Because I like cyan, blue,and purple)

I think we are talking about stock firmware here,but if I were to use stock firmware,I would stay on ICS.

If I really want to use JB,which I am currently using at the time of writing this, I would pick CM10,and customize the ui to my likings.

Now I'm using the XU,but I've used the ported stock JB,I'm not going to talk about the performance here,but the UI design is just a mess in my opinion.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Xperia_Fans:
For me

gingerbread:which is great performance then any other upgrade version(which is the most great version of SONY)

ice cream sandwich:great look and performance is not bad

jelly bean:nice looking and animation but got something lag there.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mccount:
JB!

For me it's definitely JB, cause it's the smoothest one !
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] aftergr:
At xperia mini, GB & CM7 was waaaaaaaaaaaaaay better, but with xperia p i cant say that i prefer GB

CM9 is the best rom for me but lacks camera performance, especialy if you have the camera mod on ICS/JB

Maybe only for that i will change back to stock based rom

I have maked the test with some games on my XP ( detail test CPU , GPU and battery consumption between stock GB vs stock JB ) . Each game i play about 30 minutes .

Asphalt 6:

GB : very good ( 30minutes consume 24% battery ) - JB : good (29%)

Asphalt 7:

GB : very good (32%)- JB : a bit lag (38%)

Deer hunter reload:

GB : very good (22%) - JB : good but slow (26%)

Spider man :

GB : very good (30%) - JB : very good (31%)

Nova 3:

GB : good (38%) - JB : some lags (43%)

....................

And i noticed if receive message while playing game . JB have more lags but no matter with GB .

CPU/GPU on GB is perfect because GB have more RAM than JB and bravia engine on GB work perfectly .

After one week make the test , i turn back to GB .
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] aftergr:
thats cause you confront stock jb

With CM9 for example i have 200mb less free than GB but the game performance is a little bit better

Stock based roms for example are much better than stock JB

Stock jb is not good at all at XP

I just got my HTC 8S yesterday and everything works fine except WiFi. It connects to my wifi router but when I try to open any website it says "We're having trouble displaying this page"... I try to open 192.168.0.1 and it opens normally. I try to connect to a second wifi router and the same thing happens. Just to be sure, I tried on a third wifi router as well and still the same. I cannot open any website or have internet in general. (3G works fine by the way).

I suspect something with the DNS but you can't change that to manual in WP8 as far as I know. Also, I tried to open a few websites by putting directly the IP instead of domain name and it doesn't work.

Any clue fellas?

EDIT: It must be related to my network. I went out of town for a couple of days and never had any problem testing on multiple WiFi connections. Plase Mods, delete thread. Thank you.

[HTC Droid DNA] jamiethemorris:
I'm just wondering what people's thoughts are on this... I really prefer soft keys like on the nexus devices to the capacitive buttons found on HTC devices. But if you enable soft keys it looks really weird with two sets of keys. I'm thinking of putting a strip of black vinyl over them or something... It would be hardly noticeable but it would feel weird. I'm also wondering if they could be covered in black vinyl from the back side, I'm not sure if they're colored white or just completely transparent. Thoughts or any other ideas?
[HTC Droid DNA] drumz0rz:
I love the capacitive touch soft keys on the DNA. They work much better than on my old Thunderbolt (the screen digitizer is used instead of a separate circuit). I really hate physical buttons, like that atrocious center Home button on the Samsung GS3/4/Note (Plus, why the hell is back on the right on the GS phones? Makes no sense). I also don't like on screen keys like what you're describing. They waste my valuable scree real estate, and I'd rather have buttons that don't move or change rather than some software overlay.
[HTC Droid DNA] _phoey:
It would be possible, and I think it could be practical in some ways. If you have smaller hands you could navigate the phone easier and it could be more responsive.

I agree with the OP. I believe the on screen keys like on the nexus phones or the new Motorola's are a lot more responsive. With a massive scr

You can use kernel tuner to turn off the lights I use pie controls instead
[HTC Droid DNA] jamiethemorris:
Yeah you can still see them though even without the lights. Right now I have both pie and the buttons enabled.
[HTC Droid DNA] amathophobia:
I have an app that someone linked that controls the capacitive keys to make them dim or turn them off. As far as making them disappear; I saw in a tear down that the keys themselves are transparent where as the rest of the digitizer is black. If you tore the phone down you could probably paint them black to be rid of them completely.

Any chance you could spell out exactly the steps required to root it? That'd be great. I'd love to root and get rid of some of the Vodafone crap if possible.

For what it's worth the phone is made by TCL - search for them on Wikipedia.

Also for what it's worth I managed to unlock mine for use on another non Vodafone network. I could only find one service that could unlock them at the moment. If you google you should find it. I can't post links as I am new here.

My initial impressions are also positive. Seems pretty stable, functional and responsive so far. Pity the screen isn't IPS but otherwise it compares very favourably with my Huawei G300 for example.

Basically your pulling your own boot and recovery (plus android.img but this a safety measure) images from your phone and making a modified version with root that you then push back to the phone, the original stock images are stored on your pc in case you would like tom restore your phone as well as the new rooted images just flash the imgs you'd like to use. Make sure Vcom drivers are installed before you connect your phone though, as when you plug your phone into the usb while it is switched off the phone will only connect up briefly and then disconnect again if there is no activity, which means that if you try and install the drivers using the connect your phone to the usb method the phone disconnects to quickly. You should only attempt this if you have some knowledge of this sort of rooting.
