I was wondering if anyone can confirm if the connect to 2g only is wokring, I check it but when I go back in it's not ticked ~ Update - not working

I tried Nand last night and kept getting connection problems due to the 2g/3g thing, I've heard there's an app on market place so going to try that

Seriously considering going Nand - does the system and data install to nand or just system on the kaiser ?, Win Mobile seems so lousy now!

Another quick question - can I remap the buttons in android, I'd like to try and get the press on the wheel to work as in Win Mobile - same as center dpad

Also how do you close an app in android, I've been running last.fm which is great but unless I logout it always stays running . . . sorry bit of a newb one that!

I'm on 3 uk and it shows as Orange ?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] blurryfingers:
Thanks for all the hard work in getting this to run. I've installed on my sprint touch using nand, and while I like the OS better, I'm thinking I might have to go back to wm.

Problems that I haven't been able to resolve:

- Battery life. Some days it is fine, but others it will start to run really hot and I can lose half of my battery in a few hours.

- Data usage: I checked my sprint data meter and somehow I've used 1.5gb in the last week. Normal usage should be around 80mb. I think this might have something to do with the battery life, if data is running constantly this could be making it physically hot.

While I have unlimited data, I can't rely on a phone that randomly loses all of its power in a few hours.

I would love to hear if anybody has found a fix for any of these problems, as I would love to stick with android.

Nice - is there any faq that is kaiser based ?

Experimenting With Overclocking

I just wanted to check in and give an update on the overclocking capabilities I mentioned the other day.

For the next release I'll be giving the option for bleeding edge users to run Warm Donut in an overclocked state.

I've been testing different configurations, from a 450 - 550mhz (default is 400mhz)

The sweet spot seems to be around 500mhz. Above 500mhz the phone occasionally won't come out of sleep mode which is no good :(.

As I tested the overclocking with the next release which has some performance boosts added, caching the home screen in memory full time and a few other Dalvik tweaks, I didn't really notice a performance jump OCing even up to 550mhz. Although the benchmark applications claimed better performance. Apps seemed to load just as fast and games seemed just as well too.

So with that said, the next release base rom won't be overclocked by default but I will provide an option within the rom for users if they wish too.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Alfatv:
I have the same issue.

On all the builds that show "G" connection, Sipdroid doesn't work, so I suspect this is a problem.

Any plans to fix or workaround?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] ThomasHW:
Download "ES Task Manager". It has an option to close all app's when the phone sleeps and also has a widget that closes all apps.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] noside12123:
Holy Crap! :eek: Is this going to work with Kaisers too ??? I would really like to try this! Great Job Myn Looking forward to you next release :D
[Touch CDMA Android Development] kan555:
I thought I was the only one with the hot battery and high data usage. I have to check my phone constantly like every hour because it randomly gets very hot. I go to task list and found nothing I can kill to try to cool it down. Not sure what's causing it. I already uninstalled half of the apps I have to narrow the problem down but still no luck. I'm thinking to just start fresh and not install any apps to see if the phone still gets hot. Sometimes I forget to check it and let go for 3 hours and it gets very very hot.

For the data, I never checked how much I used before with WinMo but I just notice this month I used almost 3 Gig of data. I can't believe I used that much. It must be have something to do with the problem above but I run out of things to try.

No one else has these issues? I love the ROM and want to keep it but constantly checking the phone all day long makes me wonder what keeps sneaking up on me.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] JM-PDA:
Hello Kan555,

I've also got a Sprint Vogue running Myn's build on an 8Gb SD card with no EXT2 partitions. Runs fast and has never been hot. Have lots of apps running a various times.

May want to start with a clean slate.

Good luck!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] inertone:
i have a vogue on verizon and my phone gets extremely hot as well

how much memory do you have taken up on your memory card?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] JM-PDA:
When I open the Task Killer app, it shows that I have 44M memory available.

As to the SD Card, I have all my music on there as well, so I still have about 3 Gb of free space there.

My SD card is 8Gb in capacity.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] inertone:
hmmm, mine usually varies between 40m-35m

and on my SD card i have about 1.5gb left

i thought it could have something to do with space available on the card..

either way, im going to try and start with a fresh SD card and see if that does anything

edit:im running it via the old method, straight from the SD card
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Carrick1973:
I just logged into Sprint and found that I've used 4,298,146 KB of data - YIKES. Luckily I have unlimited data, but for anyone that doesn't - be forewarned that something in this (not sure if it's just this build, or all android builds), is sucking data at a constant rate. I certainly love this build, and know the developers will jump on this to try to solve it if it's occuring for everyone. I'm running off of NAND and my battery gets hot too, and lasts for about 8 hours before it's conked.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] meknb:
I noticed android.update would sometimes start and download 57mb update maybe this is why it's sucking so much data?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] myn:
FYI from dzo:
[Touch CDMA Android Development] myn:
What tool are you using to determine this?

Do you have a network monitoring tool that binds to processes that download or?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] meknb:
I checked under settings>about phone>system updates and noticed the progress bar was moving.Then typed ifconfig in a terminal showed i was downloading data i just presumed it was update.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Nick N:
I just checked Sprint.com and I have used 100k so far. I have weather updates for Beautiful Widgets, gmail updates, and have downloaded apps and browse daily. I keep gps and bluetooth off when not in use, my battery life is pretty decent with this build. I flashed the 021410 nbh if that matters.

Anyone else reading this thread because they saw myn's name and thought he was adding the screaming donut build? :-)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tatnai:
we've had this problem before, the system is trying to download an OTA update. I think to fix it you have to modify the build.prop or some other file that has the build version so that it doesn't think it needs to update. otherwise it will keep trying to download over and over again, because it can never install it. there also may be a file that can be deleted to stop it from running the update, can't remember though.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] kan555:
Mine is also about 35-45 mb. My SD is 8 GB and has about 6 GB empty so no issues there. I'm also running on SD. I got about 15 apps installed. Will try clean install this weekend. I removed all widgets on the home screen. I used

TaskKiller app to kill and monitor. I also set Autokill when screen Off. Not sure if that works or not because when when I turn my screen back on, there're still some apps that were running before I turn screen off.

Seems this happens only on some phones. JM-PDA (reply#1062) is one of the lucky ones whose phone is cool all the time. Wonder what's different from ours. Can more people confirm if they have this problem or not? And what setting they have so we might be able to narrow the problem? Thanks.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] myn:
I installed 3G WatchDog which monitors bandwidth and so far in the last few hours I've only downloaded 500kb. I'll keep an eye on it over the course of today and keep it running overnight.

I also haven't experienced any of the Update downloads either although I would love to know what causes this though.

Hi all,

I always get an error message "faild to reach system.img on SD card"

any Ideas?

Thanks.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] smarcin:
Myn's Warm Donut won't load anymore!

I have been running the original Warm Donut for 3 weeks or more. I am running it from my SD card which is partitioned with Fat32, ext2, ext2. I've never had a problem. Just a little while ago, it locked up after a phone call. The person I was calling hung up before I ended the call. The screen locked up, showing I was still on the call. I have rebooted several times. I get the lock screen, showing (No service). The time on the screen is about 6 hours off, too, which seems odd. Pushing any button does nothing. The screen turns itself off and on. The time given is 6 hours earlier than it really is. The date is correct. When I boot into WM, I am able to make a call. My Vogue was on the charger when this happened. I have tried it on and off the charger, nothing seems to help. My microSD card is a 2gb Kingston, FWIW. Also, when booting, the little ball that circles the word "Android" locks up then eventually it goes to the lock screen with the wrong time and the words, "No service." Do you think there's any hope? I'm thinking somehow the SD card is corrupted, though I haven't taken it out of my Vogue in days or even weeks, maybe. I was ready to try the NoMoRootfs version, but I'd like to save my data.img...Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

anyone having battery life issues? i only get4-5 hours on a full overnight charge with no background data or gps usage..:confused:

It could be a problem of the card. I would take it for a format trip and would try the NoMoRootFS (which works really well, btw). Hope this helps...
[Touch CDMA Android Development] egzthunder1:
I can actually leave it on standby through the night and still wakes me up (Alarm, which happens to be faaaaaaaaaaaaaar more reliable that the WM stock one) every morning with well over 80% charge... (then again, I don't really trust the battery meter :D)

[Touch CDMA Android Development] mrkite38:
You may also want to try the newest nbh / kernel, dzo made a number of battery improvements.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] drewden123:
Does anybody know the right settings/files to modify. It's suckin up all my bandwidth and battery. This is partly the cause for my battery drain. I saw my data arrows lit up for a long time, go into the settings and see it downloading an update but no option to cancel it. What will happen if I apply this update, and will it fix the problem?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] acegolfer:
After struggling with the same problem for 3 hours, I found that this method can't be done on the 512mb SD.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] cp0020:
I too am having this problem. It didn't happen till I flashed it to my phone. But there is no way to cancel it or apply it. Restarting the phone won't help either. And once its done downloading it just tells you to download again.

Update - I installed 3G Watchdog per Myn's post and 31.95 megs for just this afternoon - no browsing, but I have the Facebook widget, Beautiful Weather, Gmail updates, CalWidget (should just use local data), and News and Weather. I wouldn't think that these would add up to 32 megs in 5 hours of non-usage, just background data transfer... I'll try the new nbh file and see if that helps. Not sure if DZO is working on other areas besides battery management or not.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] ThomasHW:
I doubt it's any of your apps. It's probably that update that was mentioned earlier in the thread.

I have about 2 MB's of data usage over the last week with all of those apps installed, as well as browsing.

anyone with this build having trouble with Beautiful Weather widget not showing any animations and google skymap not working (black screen) , any clues? BTW the new nbh seems to fix/help with the battery issue time will tell
[Touch CDMA Android Development] hexto:
Been using this build for a couple of weeks now and its still flawless. Battery could be better but I'm not convinced that its not because my battery is over two years old.

I'm seriously getting bored with it cause there is nothing to fuss with as usual. lol. I almost wish it would break....not really

Most dependable build I've tried yet and I've tried them all.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mrkite38:
tried the new (2/19) kernel/nbh?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] incubus26jc:
Did you flash the new nbh from 2-19? Dzo rewrote the battery driver and everyone so far is saying it has much battery life. i just flashed it so i havent had enough time to comment on it yet. But you are right, this build is incredible. Its what finally convinced me to get rid of WM all together. Only thing i cant do that i could on WM is recieve MMS. But that isnt this builds fault. Its across the board i believe. The pros outway the cons by far.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] ThomasHW:
Try the new .nbh (released today, the 19th) for the battery issues. Seems like a far more realistic battery level is being produced now.

Does this stop the 1.6 update from running and downloading? I think that's the problem why my phone is getting hot and running out of battery. It starts to download the update automatically every few days and burns up my battery.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] myn:
I confirmed that it's definitely attempting to download the update today. I got home after work and checked my network monitor and sure enough it said it had downloaded 57mb.

This will be fixed in the next release.

Myn,

Unfortunately, I am having the same battery problem (extremely hot, 4 hour battery limit and 36GB of data usage…so far). Please let us know a time frame when the fixed next release will be. I love your build. I will be so embrassed to go back to WM6.1., but for now I will. I can not afford to use a phone that is a hazard. Keep up the great work!
