Can't get back original theme

Hi, i tried changing to another theme but when i wasn't satisified, i wanted to change back to the original theme (the one with the planets etc) but i couldnt get it back like it was originally. i mean the top and bottom bar are different now, different colors. how can i get it back to the original theme?

Don't be quiet :)

tell me what what programs have you installed, or what changes have you made...anything that you can think of, it may help on solveing the problem with those who have one.

Battery meter doesnt work.

Hey m8's.

This debate about power usage is maybe a little off limits. As i've seen in my normal device use the power drain is excellent. However It seems that the bug resides in the battery status plugin itself (so dont blame de cooker !!)

While my device is plugged into the wall charger sometimes it shows +249mA or +220mA or +120mA (Even if its fully charged and the right led is glowing green !!) So this is a bug of the plugin itself.

Dont worry. You battery usage will be just fine. :)

Another tip. Use Application Bases Overclocking for your phone, camera, desktop and set them to 195 (or even less) you will save more mA. :)

Tip. I use magic button its a little program that closes not hide programs and can be used as a task manager, with very low memory usage about 56k and quite powerfull to close all task that may be consuming precious battery. Give it a try.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] papamopps:
FOr me the problem is that I have a beep on wizard when running 195Mhz. SO I overclock to 260Mhz. But when batterystatus is disabled on today screen there is no overclocking. So I have installed SPB mobile shell and using batterystatus as a tab.

The i have installed:

- today agenda (as tab in SPB)

- ilauncher - using ilauncher taskmanager to exit programs and to switch them

- sktools

- cool camera - still better than ms camera

- webcam plus

- tcpmp 0.81

- total commander - the one and only

And thats it.

After flashing installed everything, changed todaybackground and dialpad to black. Run SKtools for memory opt. just mentioned before. Using batterystatus 260 Mhz and no cpu scalar.

Did the powermanagment hack

and thats all I can remember.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] anichillus:
I didn't saw your post :) sorry

Man, I explained before...I don't know how to get back the original colours. i tried it but no luck.... It's been registry edited...i could try to make a cab to do that...wait a couple of minutes I will test and if it's working, I'll put it up.

I'm redoing your steps papamopps but yed didn't found the problem.

It's true, only the batterystatus drain sensor is messed up, so don't judge by that only. Let alone your pda and see how much your battery lasts

PS. It's strange that you hear a sound when not overclocking...I never heard of that before, mabe that's the reason why it works for you :)

Shell tool is in the sticky in the Wizard Upgrading forum. Pretty easy to find actually. Then the Wiki can also get you there. You just ahve to look.

And if you have a G3 (like I think you are saying) then why ShellTool? Just CID Unlock and save yourself a TON of hassles...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] anichillus:
I think I solved the drain problem :D

I will add a link to the modified HTC PowerManagement but I have to test it first, so be pacient

You will have to uninstall the one implemented with the rom, do a soft reset wait a minute, install this one and then do another soft reset. Mine works now.

It shows 30-33mA at 195MHz and 53mA at 273 MHz

:D

And yeah, you may have your Wizard CID locked mazterjay...

Well, in Xplore, there wasn't actually a drain problem (at least I got none), but the batterystatus just didn't show the true baterydrain mA

Im waiting for the cab.

Perhaps in the next release you might consider adding camera 3.3.

I will attach it if you want it:)

Best regards.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] anichillus:
You'll have to wait a little more for the cab, I get the feeling that this one does the opposite :) I mean has low readings for batterystatus and high batterydrain lol

To explain myself... for about 12 hours, i didn't charged the phone, I did played music and videos for about half an hour and untill an hour ago it still was at 100% (i had it pluged into usb the time to install a game Broken Sword "Shadow of the Templars") and for the last half an hour I'm playing this game at full sound and at 273 MHz ...and the battery is now 85%. Note that just before I installed the game I also did those PowerManagement changes and installed the modified one before starting to play. Actually, that's why I even started playing, to see the battery drain. I'll see how it acts when not playing.

About camera 3.3, attach it, I'll see what I can do for the nest release (fix)

Battery status issue

Ive noticed if i have my text size a certain way that if I have the CPU speed option set on Battery status, part of the "2" is cut off in the 260mhz in the today screen, think this happened in every WM6 rom I used, not sure though. I had to make the text size 1 tick smaller in order for it to show on the today screen without chopping part of the 2 off. Have a look at it, see attached. The attached is it showing right. I am thinking this version of battery status is a little flaky.

FYI at 260 MHZ, 24mA from standby.

Thanks a lot!:cool:

Yes...

I have install Tmobile....

But after this i have install much rom's...

IPL 2.26

SPL 2.26

GSM 2.19.11

And X-plore 1.0

Please Coment...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] anichillus:
Man, i really don't know what is wrong with it. OBEX is enabled in the rom, mabe there is just some incompatibility with the program you are using.

I didn't touched bluetooth settings in the registry ..I just don't know what could be the problem you're talking about. My bluetooth is working...dunno ..any others experiencing problems with bluetooth obex ?

As for RUCA ... you should always install your TMobile 2.26 official ROM before upgradeing to another cooked one.

ok so which rom to run.. this or nootoosmart's rom? ..im confused about the dialer pad and battery issue..

is the default dialer pad the wm6 one?

is there really a battery issue or are people just crazy?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] :
short question:

how to uninstall battery meter; i mean, it isn't using some kind of ..hm, driver to probe/send, so i can just remove it as today plugin, right? then, its influence on battery woes should stop?

i am asking, because i cant remove it with "remove programs"... so unloading only should make it stop completely, right?

i said that ROM is awesome, and it IS.

but need to figure out, what the hell is with that battery paranoia, we just see "things", or it IS the thing lol... with wm06, battery meter and so on.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Ruca:
ok

i will try

thanks...

best regards..
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] anichillus:
In Xplore 1.0 the default dialpad is the one showed in the main post.

For people who don't like it I also attached a default dialpad.cab (see Patches) wich is the wm6 default dialpad.

Only few people have reported having actual battery drain issues, almoust the rest of us, just have high readings from batterystatus - power drain wich are not accurate, basically it doesn't refresh at small value changes. Only when you have a massive modification, like pluging in the charger or starting an app that uses alot of power...the rest of time, it just stays idle showing last recorded drain.

You can uninstall Battery Status, I just did that...be sure that you don't have it as a tab under Mobile Shell and that is enabled on today screen.

You can also select or actually deselect the "Show battery drain" thing from Batterystatus ' options.

I noticed that the actual drain has nothing to do with the reading...I mean not the High drain reading from batterystatus causes the drain ...

Mabe there is something to do with the power management cab... I'm trying to figure it out now.

be pacient, even God didn't built the world in only 1 day :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] anichillus:
This is giving me the goosebumps :))

I uninstalled batstatus ext beta3 and installed the beta2 .. at boot, it showed 69% battery ...after few minutes ...it's 73% lool

Ok, so the drain vlues no changing isn't anymore a problem...but what I installed is devouring my battery, lol

I can see it draining.... hehe

Remember kids, DON'T DO THIS AT HOME ! :)

So I did best that I didn't share it. Looks like the battery eater is exactly the program intended to conserve it.

So I managed to reproduce the battery drain problem, this must mean I'm getting closer ;)

I'm running the PocketMusic Player v4.3.4 to stress the cpu in order to produse more battery drain.

I noticed that when idle ( display turned off copletly ) it goes to 240mA and when just idle with only the backlight off it uses 130mA ...this means ...I dunno what but I'll find out :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] g0dblissyou:
Battery Status!

When the phone goes idle and screen and power shuts down everything is suspense except the incoming calls, including battery status as I read from the author of batterstatus. So when your phone comes out of idle for sure it will show a low reading of mA. Oh also make sure you guys are reading mA units for the power sometimes I click on batterstatus on the today plugin by accident changing it to mW which is much higher example on a 286 Mhz overclock mine shows 64mA which I just came out of idle so I don't know if thats true, I know for sure it's not real time calculations. but if you click it again it will show 241mW which is much higher when you look at the number. Confused me at first cause I just took a glance at it, so I kept thinking my power is so high but actually I was looking at mW units and comparing to other people online that show me thier mW which is much lower number. Ha..stupid me. so make sure you look carefully then post your findings or problems.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] anichillus:
This is the relation battery voltage * reading in mA = reading in mW
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] :
almost offtopic, but...

that program(battery meter) is candidate to be kicked out of my pocket.

Example:

i am charging machine, and its 100%.

Then, i am using pocket for some time, and its 100% for long time, then, incrementally level drops..faster nad faster...

i am making soft reset. and percentage of power is other, than last reading before SR. higher or lower, than before..

more:

applying every possible tweak linked to power managenent etc. made power drain meter less, than before, but its still unrelated to power level drop.

more:

i have i.e. 147 mA, and after power off, wait 5 mins, and power on i can see i.e. 37-42 mA. SR and its 276 mA and keeps at that value for long time.

i do not know, if im under influence of these readings, but im gonna uninstall BM before i get mad. :)

funny, but overclockin' seems to have little influence on reading...or delay is too big,..or number is "too" averaged ..dunno...

maybe its just way that program works is making all these unrelated to ROM issues...

ok, back to autopsy :D

cheerz.

anichillus, try to get some rest :D
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] anichillus:
It acts normal for you man.

It perfect makes sense ... when you do a soft reset, it uses alot of battery, in idle the display is off at least, so it's normal to have about 30mA unless you use Wifi or something like that.

ah, and ... not just yet ;)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
I think a lot of people have a misconception about how BatteryStatus works... Understand that the power meter bar is not an exact indicator, but a guestimate. Its made up of the current power and the amount of use the phone is currently undergoing (as I understand it). So its common to see it "drain" when you are actively doing stuff. Then put the phone in standby for awhile and turn it on and it now shows more power than it had when you turned it off.

I think people are trying to use this as too much of an exact tool, and I don't know that it was meant to be that way. Now I do thing the mA and mW readings are supposed to be real, but the battery bar indicating the percentage remaining is not (again, as I understand it).
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] :
You are probably right...

well , i was using batmemtime on my wm03 pocket, so i CAN tell now, on wizard, that battery status is ...able to make me little dissapointed..lol :)

But bmt works FINE on wm06(i hope so..at last...), so im gonna use that one instead, and overclock manually with other method...

anyway, sorry for offtop.

its pure fun to have ...issues, or overgrown imagination :).

thx for reply.

btw, maybe next ver. of ROM could have battery status as separated cab?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] golfernutnflorida:
what are you using to overlock? I think batmemtime is a solid program and I wish cookers would slowly get away from using batterystatus.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] golfernutnflorida:
I have found startclean to sometimes hang on a soft reset, I have removed it and I am using clear temp. thanks for the suggestion though.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] epimazzo:
Let's forget the programs for a moment. Focus on the ROM itself without anything new put there, ok? Now, I just tried to transfer files over bluetooth and then realized that I couldn't! :(

From this point, I decided to use Btcrawler to see if all its settings was enable. Here I saw that only Obex is disable. So, whatever we call this thing, it was already happening in the first version.

As nobody else seems to be facing this weird and annoying thing, I'll dig little more trying to figure out what's going on. Maybe only me got this bad luck!:mad:

If anybody here knows something, give me a clue please!:rolleyes:

Thanks man!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] epimazzo:
I liked your point of view!:)

It seems that we really want to find a guilty guy! Batterystatus is a great tool. It sounds like everyone at a given moment start complaining about how batterystatus really works. I'm not an expert also but I know as a computer guy that softwares can behaviour in a different way sometimes.

I prefer this tool instead Omap itself. I also tried others like XCPUScalar which I found being so cool! But BStatus has done the job with nice features built in! And of course, FREE!:D

So, let's move on!:D

bootscreen mode

Hi Anichillus,

I am using "Smart1's" ROM on my g3 prophet. I am impressed with the comments on your x-plore rom and decided to flash it. It is flashing normally and after finishing, I can see the welcome screen with all the information, then after 2 seconds it is going back to the bootscreen(Color Bands). I tried several times, with the same result.

Thanks

Raju

IPL 1.00

SPL 2.13.0000

Smart1"s WM6

My phone is orginally Imate Jamin..But after installing Smart1"s ROM as per the instructions in the post"Solution to Smart1's ROM". Now whenever I soft reset or hard reset..the welcome screen shows QTECK. in the device information the name is WIZA200
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
Almost looks like you tried to brick your phone with those numbers. Have you flashed a G3 rom onto a G4 phone? (sorry I don't know much about the diff with Prophet phones).

Also (again in the Wizard world) you should NEVER try to run a WM6 ROM with IPL and / or SPL of 1.xx. It must be 2.xx or you will have issues. Again, maybe this is different for Prophets, but it should NOT be done on Wizards.

Good luck, but trying to run a Wizard rom on a Prophet I think is pretty risky...

Hehehe... I like your "Chocolate-Vanilla" term... Cuz you know.. we all love chocolate :p

Any commercial app would be useful... :D j/k... You seem to be on the right track... Good choice on the Beta3 but I wouldn't put in TodayAgenda. No offense to Ruca, I use it myself but it does slow down boot time. If you do have it, please have it disabled by default. The usual SMS/MMS and Contact backup progs would be nice for people to migrate from ROM to ROM since not all of us can afford progs like Sprite and SPB..

On a personal note, I'd love to see Voice Command as I've gotten tired of having to re-record voice tags every time I change roms. That is prolly the only thing stopping me from jumping aboard but that's just my 2 cents..
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] anichillus:
Ok ... so I'm back ....

...it's 12 hours since last boot ... here is an review

battery left 87 %

Almoust all time it was overclocked at 273MHz ...and I think I found out that turning on the BatteryStatus CPU Scaler, it actually consumes more battery than normal overclocking ...that's wierd

Free RAM at the moment 29MB free

I used for over an hour Pocket MusicPlayer v4.3.4 with the Xbass enabled, at max sound volume (when PocketMusicPlayer is on, with the Xbass on, you still have 26.5 - 27 free ram. Note that Xbass consumes alot of cpu and memory)

Gapless playback even at 195 MHz

What else ....

Ah ...yea

I was away, just like I said and I just got back, so I'll get down to work.

Notes.

-I deleted Voice Command.lnk from startup ... Thinking of replacing it with CiberonSmart Dial ...

-I'll put on hold for now SMS/MMS and Contact backup progs ... just for now

-You will have smartskey

-MT Software TodayAgenda will NOT be in the rom, sorry, hope you can understand...you can load it afterwards ...

For all apps that I don't include, sorry ...I would like to include also alot of things, but it's really hard, and then not all people will use them.

Just talking in general... when I was looking for a backup program, I recall seeing alotta threads asking... I understand your point about installing them separately since people may use different freeware (ie .csc vs .csv)... Again, the deal breaker for me is still prolly Voice Command... When you have to go re-customize 50-100 contacts each time, it gets to be a pain... I have cabs to install all the programs I want (which isn't much actually, only 4-5 progs)... Except VC 1.6... since it's not free.. :p

I know about synchronising but it doesn't backup custom profiles... once again.. I'm just lazy... Don't want to go through all my contacts and re-set all the custom ringtones.. Unless you know of a way of sorting the contacts into groups and assigning a different ringtone to each group w/o installing another program.
