Battery life {constant projector}

I tested the projector life while watching Sherlock Holmes. Its right at about two hours. I was using MP4 at a resolution of 480x272 30 fps and total bitrate of 450 kbps. It played flawlessly, and looked pretty decent. Infrared thermometer showed the device got up to about 52 degrees C at the hottest surface, which was the back of the projector that was sitting on my desk while watching. Battery started at 100% and I had to shut the projector off and charge the phone just as the credits came up. Looks like two hours is pushing it, considering I took the phone off the charger and immediately started the movie.

[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Routaran:
Hey guys,

I'm having trouble flashing a new OS on my X1i.

I had to RMA my phone at the start of january due to a display screen failure. Sony Ericsson, a month later, told me that they had not recieved my phone yet and wanted proof that i sent it. After some running around between them and canada post they finally said "our bad" fixed the phone and sent it back to me.

Finally after 2 months, i had my X1i. Alas, i sent them an english OS phone and they sent me back a German OS phone. I called them back and they said they would "escalate" the call and i should expect someone to call me back within 24 hours. Its been 4 days and i havent got a call back. I longer want to deal with them and have decided that voiding my warranty by changing the ROM is no longer a concern.

I downloaded the HardSPL from this thread and installed it

/showthread.php?t=431218

Apologies for not providing a direct link, but new users cant post links due to spam issues

Now my bootloader reads:

KOVS110

SPL-0.72.OliNex

MicroP1-787

MicroP2-707

Then i downloaded the English Rom from this thread

/showthread.php?t=475482

APP_SW_X1i_GENERIC_UK_CDF1215-1832_KOV_R2AA010

i renamed the file to

Kovsimg.nbh

Then i formatted my 4gb SD Card with FAT32

then copied the Kovsimg.nbh file to the root folder

then i turned my phone off, unplugged everything from it, inserted my SD Card into the phone and started up the boot loader

however i get an error message saying "no image found"

i tried the process again but with the filename in all lowercase. this did not work either

what am i doing wrong?

Can anyone point me to in the correct direction?

Is there another easier way to do this?

I would greatly appreciate any help.

Thanks,

Ravi

Re:

Hello all,

I did some more reading on the SD method and it turned out i was using the incorrect type of MicroSD card.

I was using a SDHC card before and it was not reading the card correctly. When i switched to my other MicroSD card it worked fine.

Thanks to everyone who was kind enough to spend time getting all of this information together in one place so i could avoid another support call :)

Cheers

Ravi
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] tompok82:
There's nothing wrong with using MicroSDHC to flash phones, it's just that some MicroSDHC chip can't be detected by the SPL program.

Although some old phones really can't flash using MicroSDHC, but Xperia doesn't have any problem with flashing using MicroSDHC.

Previously I was using Kingston 16GB MicroSDHC and the "no image found" problem occurs.

But when I switch to Team Group 16GB MicroSDHC, the "no image found" problem doesn't occur anymore.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] harveydent:
Yup, it's usually an incompatible or bad SD card that prevents an SD flash.

By the way, if you just want to flash a stock ROM, you don't need to hard-spl your phone. The stock SPL will work. But since you already have hard spl, have fun trying out the custom ROMs! It's the same procedure you did when you flashed the English ROM. Try them out and you won't regret it.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Routaran:
re:

@Tom: Yep, i have a kingston SD card too! it must be that kingson is one of the ones that doesnt work

There's almost a sense of information overload in the roms forum. I'm trying to read up on it and get a handle on all everything but i definately will try. Worse come to worse, and i break my phone, will i always be able to load up the bootloader and flash back to the stock ROM?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jackleung:
Isn't that I stated in the SD flash thread that kingston is known for problem. :)

I had different 16G SDHC and no issue so far for flashing.

Since you already break the cage and HardSPL, isn't that a good time to try cooked rom as well. ;p
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Routaran:
haha! that must have been where i got the idea of trying the other SD card and i just forgot i read it. Thanks for posting it.

I've got Touch 10 Extreme Blue downloaded. gonna throw that on over the weekend and see what its like.

But overall i'm glad i got my phone working again.

Oh and i finally got a call back from Sony Ericsson Escalations. The girl that spoke me to said that the place i got my phone from timtechs.com must have got a german phone and flashed it to english and then sold it to me and that act itsef would void the warranty. And then went on to say that i dont have a choice and i will have to simply use it(in german) or sell it to someone else.

So yeah, screw the warranty, its worthless anyway lol
[G1 Android Development] phreke:
If anyone has a dump of the G1 update that has been rolling out so I can create the radio update from that, PM me please.

Hi all,

Haven't seen anyone post an update.zip for this yet, but this is the radio img that comes with DMD64. I've used it on both 32B and G1 running latest Cyanogen.

This has been pulled from the official update DMD64 from Lucid REMs site. All I have done is pull the radio image from that.

Hope this helps.

This has been shown to work on several different versions of Dream/Magic 32B. However, please make sure you have an upgradeable radio version. ie. 2.22.19.26I

There have also been instances where the Market App will not connect data-wise. brentlacydotcom found the solution (completely I hope). Those with WebGuard might have to have it removed because it does not play nicely with the new radio. Go here for info about Webguard.

Okay - Updated to have two different files

This one is for G1 users:

http://www.mediafire.com/?zgnzmex2mrj

or

http://docs.google.com/leaf?id=0B5aFb1YS4m6FNGVhZTdlZDgtZGQ4Zi00OGRlLWFhYzktMzliZWZjMjI2MjNm&hl=en

MD5 Sum: faf0db41d28daf1cefefc7be0fceb55c

And this one should work for myTouch 1.0 users:

http://www.mediafire.com/?qwmzgko2gg2

or

http://docs.google.com/leaf?id=0B5aFb1YS4m6FZTQxMzY2NTMtNDJhYS00NjE4LWJlNjYtZmFmNjkzNmI1Mjk1&hl=en

MD5 Sum: 9c022efeef83df4c6b5c03a7c5812d03

Instructions:

1. Put either file onto the root directory of your sdcard. [/sdcard]

2. Boot your phone into recovery mode. [Either Cyanogen or Ra's recovery works]

3. Apply "any .zip" update and point it to the file.

4. When prompted, reboot your phone.

5. Patiently wait (the flea circus will do their job within your phone)

6. It should put you back into recovery, from there, reboot and you should be good.

Christopher Chavez over at Android and Me posted a great YouTube instructional video for all. Check it out here.

Just to clear things up. I don't advertise that this radio update will change your life, get you laid, or help you win the lottery. I have only posted this update because it is a new version of the radio. That's it. It came from a need (my wife was complaining of call quality issues) and I wanted to share it with the community. I would love to say this radio update will change your life...really I do. But to be honest, it is just a step up from the 26I firmware. I'm not even advertising that it's an improvement. I have seen results on mine and my wife's phones but that's it. Your experience can and will be different than mine. That is just the way hardware works. At the end of it all, if you are getting positive results from the update - awesome. If not - well, my apologies and hopefully when T-mo rolls out the actual official update, it might come with something different.

For those of you that want to go back, here is the direct link to the 26I version.

u dont wanna know cuz ull want some too. is there way to prove actually difference in performance.....with numbers...some hard evidence?
[G1 Android Development] TemporalShadows:
I've never heard anything about the trackball interfering with a flash...have you tried this radio yet?

Have you ever tried flashing the new radio with fastboot? Might have better luck with that.
[G1 Android Development] m0bstar:
works just fine, noticed a lot better reception and more 3G areas if thats even possible.
[G1 Android Development] speedysilwady:
im still on stock spl so i cant fastboot an update, and danger spl requires the 26i. Well someone long ago told me that the best method was to use the alt shortcuts to flash the radio...ill try this radio in a bit and hope for the best. i just wanted to make sure there was no danger iin flashing it when coming from a radio 2 versions behind lol.
[G1 Android Development] thenameismax:
I just read 18 pages to see if anyone has had a brick becuase of this new radio...

so I know I read this correctly..I dont have to wipe data/cache ect...

all I have to do I go into recovery and flash...thats it. No need to reflash roms or anything am I RIGHT?

I get really paranoid when it comes to flashing spl's and radios more than if I got a girl pregnant..LMFAO.

but I will take the plunge soon....pray for me.
[G1 Android Development] xqz:
my phone is stuck on rogers screen after radio =/

just applied radio on top of 3.22.20.17.. I'm using a HTC Magic 32B. any ideas?
[G1 Android Development] thenameismax:
hmmmmm...if you cant get back into recovery...your phone is in heaven.

but Im curioius to the fact if you have 3.22.20.17 why flash 2.22.23.02?
[G1 Android Development] jcarrz1:
uhh dude u just bricked your phone... u have an EBI1 which only has special radios... good job read b4 posting.
[G1 Android Development] digitallysick:
Works great on mytouch3 usa version. i have 1 extra att bar
[G1 Android Development] jcarrz1:
ATT?!?!

Flashing, then.
[G1 Android Development] HighRidas:
flashed No problems here....havent noticed much difference yet

id say its perfectly safe to flash judging by the responses
[G1 Android Development] bodyman:
damn I thought if i flashed this then my g1 would've turned into a nexus1 -- worked for me
[G1 Android Development] mejorguille:
Flashed it using FastTest 2.8, Death SPL, and coming from 26I Radio. I'm getting 50% stronger signal on 3G download and about 10% stronger signal on Edge upload. I did notice a faster boot time, and I will report back in a few days to say if battery use improoves any. OP, you made my day:D

Here's some screenies:
[G1 Android Development] thenameismax:
See when I flashed this I got 4G...lmao jk to any noob who reads that

Flashing this wasnt so scarey after all.

So far I have noticed...I went from having 2 to 3 bars of signal im at a constant 4

and I flashed the radio with only 18% battery and nowI have 43%? Weird...but I notcied that before when I was in recovery and phone rebooted it always had more power than what I started, mind you my phone is plugged into usb during this.
[G1 Android Development] bubonik:
Can you post MD5 sums in the first post?
[G1 Android Development] Azuske:
sick! i have full signal now and my 3g seems to be faster :) thanks

its a huge risk but so worth it
[G1 Android Development] AnGeL_WiT_SiNs:
so all we have to do is flash this ...or do we have to flash the spl afterwords and then the rom again?

Edit: nevermind Instructions are in the first post...sorry
[G1 Android Development] mejorguille:
Boot into recovery, flash the radio.zip, let it reboot, and you should be good.
[G1 Android Development] wschom:
I have a MT3G and I normally get 1 to 2 bars max at home. After this update I am getting 3 to 4 bars constantly. No issues with updating either. It went smooth as silk.
[G1 Android Development] rakjer:
This is great!

I went from 1, 3G bar, to 4 full bars at my home!!!!!!!

Thank you sooooooo much!!!!
[G1 Android Development] AnGeL_WiT_SiNs:
thanks!! im gonna give it a shot right now
[G1 Android Development] phreke:
Done. Thanks!
[G1 Android Development] asb123:
whats the benefits to this
[G1 Android Development] mejorguille:
Look one page back, I put screenies of faster network speeds. I also noticed faster reboot time, and i would guess improved battery life, but I can't test that last one yet.

EDIT:NVM asb, do not flash this, this is only for U.S. phones. If you flash, you will brick.
[G1 Android Development] phreke:
I would say it wouldn't benefit you at all. I don't think this would be compatible with your phone. Double check your phone and radio version. As it stands, this wouldn't work with EB1 as far as I know.
[G1 Android Development] asb123:
whaooooooo, hold on there,

You cant do that, you have EBI1, you now have EBI0, flash the 3.22.20.17 radio again, can you get inot fast boot (hold camera when booting)
[G1 Android Development] Azuske:
Mytouch users must flash this :) helps signal issues and improves 3g speeds

+5 for me

nice post
[G1 Android Development] xqz:
I cannot get into fastboot or recovery.. any help would be very much appreciated. i feel like its bricked for good though.. =(
[G1 Android Development] rakjer:
People need to read......

I read all 20 pages of this thread before I flashed and pretty much know what and what not to do....

Works like a charm if you follow the directions....
[G1 Android Development] asb123:
I forgot to update my sig but i am now running EBI0 with an EBI0 recovery, this means that I am NOT ebi1 anymore rather the old 2.X radio

Am I correct in saying that I could flash this.
[G1 Android Development] SG_Shadow:
Newb question, don't flame me please!

What is the big deal with having a new radio image? What is the radio image purpose within the android os? Thanks for positive feedback.
[G1 Android Development] mejorguille:
Well, to put it simply, the radio is the way that your phone connects to the cell tower. A newer, efficient radio will give you better signals then and older radio. I might be wrong though....
[G1 Android Development] thenameismax:
better signal....battery life
[G1 Android Development] phreke:
The radio image updates the radio in your phone, which is the way it communicates with a network, ie. GSM. Not necessarily a PART of the Android OS, but more a part of your phone's hardware.
[G1 Android Development] SG_Shadow:
Cool, thanks for the awesome feed back. With this said, does that mean the g1 now gets the uber speed of t-mobiles new 3g max service? The 7mbps speeds? If so, can I flash this radio and flash a custom rom on top of it? Who has tested this so far. I don't have $100 for the replacement if I brick my phone, LOL!
[G1 Android Development] javolin13:
just read through all 22 pages.. and still scared ****less
[G1 Android Development] skyundersea:
No, the speed doesn't change THAT much. It's a little bit, not much. And look through this thread, tons of people have already flashed it, including myself. Go for it.
[G1 Android Development] thenameismax:
dude i was scaredto lol...i read 18 pages. really it nothing. just flash it...you wont brick a phone unless u like that kid who flashed the it over the eb11 he had and bricked his
[G1 Android Development] Kutttt:
I did a test, went from 3 bars to 2 to 1 to a steady 5. Battery life improved, it's a fact. Reception greatly improved, it's like I got a brand new phone. Amazing. You would be crazy not to apply the new update. Just do it now!
[G1 Android Development] sunset73:
Nice update. Working 100% for me.
[G1 Android Development] phreke:
Well, technically, the G1 is already capable of using Tmo's new 7.2mbps network. You will only see results if you are in an area with the updated network. Keep in mind that 7.2 megaBITS per second is a lot different to 921.6 kiloBYTES which is what the conversion is and what you would see running a speedtest.
[G1 Android Development] JamieD81:
ive read a bunch on here and i just have one question.

i have rogers htc dream. its not the eb11 but eb10 i guess the way i rooted changed it?

i have the 26I radio and death spl

so im guessing im good to go on flashing this?

again not a n00b just clearing up my mind so dont flame.
[G1 Android Development] calvin_sy:
updated to this new radio. works fine. took the opp to wipe and upgrade to cyan's latest + amon's ra.

used titanium backup to backup app data and home screen data (so i dont have to bloody setup all my shortcuts on 5 screens)... lifesaver!
[G1 Android Development] SeEsAw12:
Try it, we'll see what happens.

I'm a n00b, I like to experiment :)
[G1 Android Development] xaueious:
OMG I knew it. I knew I should have posted here.

IF YOUR RADIO VERSION STARTS WITH 3.X, DO NOT JUST FLASH THIS RADIO OR YOU WILL HAVE YOURSELF A BRICK. NO THERE IS NO KNOWN WAY TO FIX THIS AT THE MOMENT. GET YOURSELF A NEW PHONE.

You can change to this radio, but you must have the proper recovery installed first.
[G1 Android Development] Kutttt:
Go adhead, brick your phone. Don't come back here crying to us. Go blame Canada!
[G1 Android Development] asb123:
yup;)

:o:o:o:o:o
[G1 Android Development] MattKilla:
I'm going to guess there's no changelog..
[G1 Android Development] JamieD81:
your just mad at our 14 GOLD MEDALS AND HOCKEY GOLD x2!

:P *that was a joke incase u get all mad*

im just making sure of things before i flash, im not on rogers radio as is. ive flashed 26I twice along with death spl.

my phone has nothing rogers on it other then saying rogers on the battery cover.
[G1 Android Development] Kutttt:
You nut. Youre just a noob trying to push people to brick their phones so you can laugh your noob ass off. You make it seem like it's your experiment when you have no part in it due to the fact it is NOT YOUR PHONE Good one. Enjoy!
[G1 Android Development] Kutttt:
Don't care about the gold... well except for the damn hockey gold... That really pissed me off to the point where I chucked my G1 out the window and had to buy a new one due to the fact USA lost to DAMN Canada, and thus my phone was shattered into a million different pieces, just like the million different tears us Americans shed when we lost to Canada in hockey. You got me there A&!@^%$.
[G1 Android Development] JamieD81:
proof canada owns usa at all things important ;)

olympics in vancouver= billions of dollars

flights for athletes=thousands of dollars

gold medal game tickets=5000$

seeing the american women and mens hockey teams cry=PRICELESS :D
[G1 Android Development] Brock Samson:
I read something on my androidguys widget that t-mobile is rolling a ota update for the g1 to improve call quality. Do you guys think this is just the radio that they are pushing in the update?
[G1 Android Development] xaueious:
EBI1 in case of the Dream/G1 has nothing to do with hardware. It depends on the radio image.

As long as your radio starts with 1.x or 2.x AND you have a working recovery installed, you can flash this recovery

As far as I know this radio should work with any 0.95 or 1.33 SPL.
[G1 Android Development] SG_Shadow:
I've flashed and live to tell the tell...

*tale*

Before:

761kbps/360kbps

834kbps/351kbps

849kbps/389kbps

After:

950kbps/360kbps

900kbps/357kbps

619kbps/366kbps

Those results were gathered using the speedtest.net app. The results are not that much different then before so I will look for improved start up times and better battery usage.
[G1 Android Development] SeEsAw12:
I was kidding. It was complete sarcasm, I actually didn't laugh at the other people who bricked their phone.. It's not funny at all. And i'm not only one who's allegedly pushing people to do something

What's up your ass?

As for the Canada gold medal comment...

Hockey is a sport you created.. and it's amazing how you're barely better than the American team.

Try playing Baseball, Football, Basketball.. and we'll see what happens.. Or hell even soccer.
[G1 Android Development] Scholesville:
Hi, will this radio update work on G1 users not in the US? I'm living in Australia. Saw the the OP post stating "Only for US users" but I have a rooted G1. Appreciate any advice before I try flashing this.
[G1 Android Development] benoitb85:
I have seen mostly USA/Canada based feedback here.

Is it safe to flash my french white HTC Dream by Orange with this ?

I have the Danger SPL and 26i radio.
[G1 Android Development] SeEsAw12:
As long as your radio starts with 1.x or 2.x AND you have a working recovery installed, you can flash this recovery

So check that.

But I mean "Only for US users" should be a good hint too
[G1 Android Development] JamieD81:
baseball. bluejays owned the league for many years.

football. ya we have the clown football league. ohwell.

basketball. canadian sport once again bastardized by americans :P so we let it go.

soccer. euro sport even americans suck ballsac at*thats why you pay euros millions to play for your teams*

hockey. we owned the americans, miller is the only reason you didnt lose in the regular round at the olympics, and the only reason the gold medal game was close.

enough offtopic. we won deal with it :P silver looks good on americans you won enough of them :P

and ill wait till cyanogen puts this radio in his roms since they always say *writing radio* anyways. no point in risking my phone till then.
[G1 Android Development] phreke:
I will be honest with you, I have not tried it on outside-of-the-US phones with the 26i Radio version. If you want to attempt it, by all means, but I do not condone an untested procedure.
