[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithross39:
No problems fella......

Putting the rev2.4 in shouldn't hurt.... as I said, I *think* there is backwards compatibility....

If that doesn't help, try going back to stock JB again. But this time root and debloat it. That is what I am running at the moment, and this is what I get from a full charge.....

If that doesn't help.....have you thought of flashing a CM ROM?...the most recent one I tried was Markox89's linaro/sabermod CM11.....good on battery and pretty much bug free.....
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CitizenLee:
Cheers Keith, that's impressive stats! :)

Well the phone seems to have somehow fixed itself! Not only did the battery keep going all night, it allowed me to connect to the PC and transfer files, and also charged from the PC whilst the phone was powered on. Tested with the wallcharger and all seemed normal too. Maybe the batteries just needed the boost from the ext. charger to get them going since they were both completely drained?

I flashed Wanam JB but wasn't really keen on the super stock look and feel so then flashed NeatROM JB which is much better.

My friend actually decided he wants to keep his crappy old brick phone but at least now I can sell the S2 in good faith knowing that it works :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithross39:
I'd be tempted to keep it as a backup....I still have my first smartphone (galaxy W) safely stored away for just that purpose. :)

And from my point of view....I personally would be loathed to part with something that I'd invested time, effort and money into to bring back to life.....I know at the end of the day it's just a piece of tech and an asset, but for me, if I'd done what you've done....it'd be (I dunno) more personal than that......

My wife says I'm a phone geek....She's probably right :):D
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CitizenLee:
Haha, I know exactly what you're saying mate, but if I wasn't spending time messing about with this I'd probably be messing about with my N5 so it's no real loss in terms of time or effort. We have a fair selection of Android devices in the house already (see my sig) so I don't think my gf would allow to have another one anyway! :D

I've actually managed to sell it on eBay and will break even on the phone and parts so I'm happy not to be out of pocket and that it will be going to a new home :)

I am going to keep the spare Rev 2.4 board though, as I have a feeling the other S2 will soon suffer the same fate, and looks like the Note 2 is going to need it done in the not too distant future too as my gf noticed it sometimes doesn't charge or properly connect to the PC. At least it's an easy job! I still have nightmares about trying to disassemble the Desire HD! :eek:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithross39:
OK mate.....glad *some* of my advice was helpful and that you got the phone working again.....gives you a satisfied feeling don't it?......lol

My wife says I'm a phone geek....She's probably right :):D
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CitizenLee:
You were a HUGE help mate, I really do appreciate it ;)

Yup, always a great feeling bringing a phone back from the dead!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithross39:
I'm guessing that the Note 2 probably has the same rev version issue that the S2 has......

Edit.....it does.....

I've spotted 2 different rev numbers for these boards so far.....

My wife says I'm a phone geek....She's probably right :):D
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CitizenLee:
Yep, this time I will be opening it up first!

Even though I got it on release day I'm not going to make any assumptions :D
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithross39:
Ha ha....lol.....

Definitely wise not to.....:D:)

My wife says I'm a phone geek....She's probably right :):D
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] DiamondJohn:
I recently purchased a Motorola RAZR M 4G (LTE) here in australia from a local retailer. The details of which can be found at:

http://www.dicksmith.com.au/unlocked-smart-phones/motorola-razr-m-4g-unlocked-dsau-em5184

I have since unlocked the bootloader (I think it may of actually came pre-unlocked anyway), rooted and flashed Carbon KitKat ROM onto the phone.

In flashing Carbon I thought that for an XT905, I should of used the unified moto_msm8960 build. However, the install zip starts with an assert to check that the phone is correct for the ROM and thereby has a check (with others) for "scorpion_mini". But, my phone was returning "scorpion_mini_u". So, I editied the install zip to enable it to flash, and it all went smoothly and has been working fine. But, recently I looked at some logs generated by my phone, and it is showing up as msm8960dt; which if I am not mistaken in used by a MOTO X (among others).

So, it would appear that my Motorola RAZR M thinks it is not a scorpion_mini but a scorpion_mini_u, and it also thinks its a Moto X (msm8960dt ), but is "happy" to run a moto_msm8960 ROM, instead of an msm8960dt ROM.

I guess my questions are:

1. Has anyone else come across the above mix of identities? and understands whats going on?

2. Although the ROM appears to be running well, should I really only be flashing the "dt" ROMS onto my phone? either way, it does NOT match the available options in the assert statement for either ROMs.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] DiamondJohn:
I don't know if this helps anyone explain the above, but I found this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2528344

and when I checked the CPU Info
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] kabaldan:
I've pushed http://review.cyanogenmod.org/64451 for the scorpion_mini_u assert.

I'm not surprised it's confusing for you. The "dt" in "Machine: msm8960dt" you see in dmesg actually means "device tree".

In the case of moto_msm8960dt family (Moto X, Droid Ultra, Droid Maxx, Droid Mini), msm8960dt refers to SoC - MSM8960DT.

SoC used by moto_msm8960 family (Razr HD, Razr M, Atrix HD, Photon Q) is MSM8960.

Builds for your Razr M are moto_msm8960. moto_msm8960dt builds wouldn't boot on xt905 at all.

EDIT: yes, the thread you've found is about the same matter.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] DiamondJohn:
Thanks. When trying to find references to the scorpion_mini_u on the web, I also came across references to the "scorpion_mini_t"

https://github.com/mattlgroff/cwm/tree/master/motorola
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] DiamondJohn:
I just came across the following web site whuich details some of the mapping between the codes, which may help in fuirther improving the cross over of the unified build.

[Zooper Widget General] Mc837:
Hi everyone.

So I made this piece of code in Zooper, and as you can see it tells the time and how long until the next event.

It's [b][nm]#DP# #Dmm#[/nm][/b].
Your next event is
"#C0TITLE#"
in [b]$0<#C0sRd#?#C0sRd 'day'#$$1<#C0sRd#?s$ $0<#c0srh#?#C0srh 'hour'#$$1<#c0srh#?s$ $0<#c0srm#?#c0srm 'min'#$. [/b]

However, once the event has started it will count the time since it started if it isn't over yet. I know I could fix it with an if statement to show the next event if the first one is ongoing.

What is the correct way to do this? I really just need to know how to define "currently ongoing event" or something like that.

Thank you in advance!

Thanks for the Recovery. Updated the Recovery through mobile uncle tool. Was able to make a back up without md5. Generation. But could Not restore the backup inspite of disabling md5 verfication. Does anyone face such issue. Flashing a rom, wiping data, system etc works fine
[Micromax A116] m0han:
tried this. things look fine. :good:

review after brief testing

:

'auto-generate-name' and 'custom-name' backups both restored fine.

settings get saved & retained over reboots.

rom installs are also fine.

taking screenshots is a breeze, thanks to "adb-enabled in recovery".

check out my screenshots here.
[Micromax A116] tandevilz:
Can we turn off the vibrate on touch??

go to settings --> vibration duration and lower values to zero or whatever.

[Micromax A116] deepesh.tickoo:
are you guys sure that ALL the necessory device drivers are installed on your pc?

Win8 needs additional permissions to install drivers needed at boot level eg. adb.

*Disabe signature verification in win8 and reinstall all the drivers.

*Check in device manager if phone is even connected or not! it will show an exclamation mark under mmx a116 if drivers are needed to be installed.

report after trying these
[Micromax A116] m0han:
tried as advised by you both. no go!

i am able to carry out normal operations when the phone is booted up. also, take screenshots in recovery.

if more drivers are required to be installed, please provide appropriate links.
[Micromax A116] harisaduelite:

Guys its confirmed! Usb mounting doesn't work on win 8.

Right click on "Android ADB Interface" Update Driver Software & restart PC Now it working
[Micromax A116] m0han:
thanks, buddy. that worked. but, i'd like to add....

First, boot into recovery

. :D

Then, go to "Mount" and click on "Mount USB Storage"

. Next, go to Device Manager on PC, right-click on "Android Composite ADB Interface" and click on "Update Driver Software..", while remaining connected to the Internet ;)

The necessary drivers will get installed on the PC and, under "Universal Serial Bus controllers", a new entry "USB Composite Device" can be seen. Thereafter, both the SD-Cards on the phone will be visible/accessible in "My Computer" and/or any other File Manager of your choice. (Rebooting the PC is not found necessary.) :good:

I tried USB mounting and it showed me a missing driver for 'mtk6589' in device manager, I updated it using native Windows 8.1 driver updater and within a second both internel and externel storage mounted!

So there is no issue in recovery, its just about missing drivers!

BTW I'm using Win8.1 x64
[Micromax A116] suhas.holla:
Apsolutely agree with you

Updated recovery needs updated drivers especially adb ..

Install an app like wakelock detector, or better battery. They will tell you what's eating battery. You can then use an app like greenify to hibernate battery hog apps.

Does TB freeze worth to use in case of Greenify.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 440bro:
Freezing an app renders it useless until you defrost it. Greenify "hibernates" apps. This means it's put to sleep until you wake it by opening it.

Wow. I followed your instruction. Installed Greenify and it helped a little bit. I lost 1% per 5 minutes using Tapatalk to check the information. Is it normal ?

You can't measure battery changes in 5 minutes. You need to compare over hours/days if there is a change.
