hello

I installed my Evolution based on the test2, Bart did a backup, then reinstalled and over and re-flashed my evolution with libhtc_ril.so of test1 and my problem is solved battery for two now.

Thank you again.

See you

Nice donate button on your signature....eat your potatoes and learn your manners, boy.

Goodnight, Sweet Prince.

[G1 Android Development] tehseano:
My apologies for not putting the "known" into a cute, cuddly teddy bear, wrapping it up into a box with a big pretty pink bow on top. Then handing it to you and wishing you the best of time in life.

Sorry, I'm telling you like it is. If you followed cyanogen, or just about any other important dev, or even did some searching, this problem was already address a while back, and had a solution (as per the one I just gave you). So, I continue to tell you, and the rest of the people who are indeed, idiots, that they are, in the hopes that one day they will rise up, stop scratching their heads, and realize they are in fact, and idiot.

Now I feel that if I do this enough, maybe the rest of the world will get their thumbs out of their asses and actually make some kind of the change in the world instead of constantly looking for invalid solutions, an asking questions that have already been answered. I put a donation button their for the people who get this, and are not idiots. So thanks for pointing out your own stupidity, you saved me a hell of a lot of work.

Now, can we continue to browse these forums, and not get our panties in a bunch because big, mean, tehseano told you like it is, and just continue to search and read, and learn a little more about Android every day? Well thats what I'm going to do, but you're more than welcome to sit back and comment on this, which I'll probably get a giggle or two out of, and let the rest of my members of #teamdouche and my followers get a kick out of it.
[G1 Android Development] lefeudedieu:

i'm sorry

[G1 Android Development] krwdre:
In my opinion, Booker-T is just sharing his experience on how he got his battery to operate normally. There's no reason you should be calling everyone above your first reply idiots. Personally, I tried the battery recalibration fix off the Cyanogen Wiki with both test1/test2 with no success. There's a 30 minute drive between my house and the University I attend and my battery has gone down from 97% (when I backed out of my garage) to 82% (when I parked on campus).

I'm not trying to complain about my battery issue because I will find a solution soon enough, but rather address your rudeness to the other members. I've read thorough the Cyanogen 5.0.7 thread on this forum and on several others and from what I've seen, there's numerous people that say recalibrating their battery did not solve the problem for them.

Now before you go on to make another post about how we're all idiots, I advise you take a step back and think about the context of the situation: you're calling us idiots because recalibrating the battery didn't work in our cases and Booker-T shared the way he fixed his.
[G1 Android Development] liquidrezin:
What worked for me was....

turning off the battery percentage display through spare parts. After I did that, my battery life pretty much went back to what it was pre 2.1 on my G1.

Sometimes there is no single solution to a problem. The last time I recalibrated my battery was when I first got this dinosaur of a phone last year.

You're all idiots by the way. j/k :)
[G1 Android Development] Paging Dr B:
Correct me if i'm wrong but I don't see how that is really accomplishing anything. Flash Test1, then gapps, then nandroid, then restore. I unplugged 7am this morning and am still @93% with light use.

Recalibrate your battery's people.
[G1 Android Development] lefeudedieu:
it just be true!

but why some and not others?

why before yesterday I had 30% of standby power and 70% last night ?

lol
[G1 Android Development] B6gSix:

sometimes the reclibration works sometimes it dosnt. seems to depend on the phone and a bit of luck. tried it on test 1 and worked for a day. the next day at work may battery died sompoint in my 8 hour shift. recalibrating didnt seem to help after that. went to test 2 and didnt help to much

[G1 Android Development] B6gSix:
ok it said :

/# mount -a

mount: mounting /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 on /system/sd failed: no such file or directory

/#

im guessing from the looks its probably the cloverdale black bar F'n things when i try to run the command. so lemme wipe and re install test 2 and try from console and see what happens.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] natim9:
Hi

Got an extended battery for my G1 a few days ago from ebay.

The problem is, the phone doesn't recognized it after I switched the battery. I had the same charging % as the previuos battery right after I changed it (even though I never charged it) and the max use time in Battery time lite is the same....

Any ideas ?

Thanks,

Nati
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shortdawg24:
bad phone ? my ext batterys work fine from ebay
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] natim9:
is there any way I can be sure ?

Maybe it a firmware thing ?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markt2:
I had similar issues when I first got an extended battery (Seidio 2600mA). After performing the steps below, I had no problems at all. I hope it works for you.

Try a COMPLETE drain and recharge cycle, a couple times.

Run the battery down until the phone shuts itself off, restart the phone and let it run until it shuts itself off again. Repeat until it will NOT boot anymore. This will take a surprisingly longer time than you think. Load up your music player, youtube via 3G, etc... kill that thing.

Once the batter is so dead that it can't even load the splash screen for a boot charge it up, but do not turn it on. Let it charge up to full for a few hours (usually four will do it) and turn it on. If it's not at 100% yet, let it charge for a while longer. When it's at 100% take it off the charger and run it down again like before. Run it until it is totally dead.

After a couple cycles like this, you shouldn't have any problem with your phone and battery giving accurate charge status results and operating as it should.

I've read, from a few sources, that between the internal monitoring on the battery works, and the way the G1 reads the battery state, that this complete drain and recharge cycling helps to establish baselines for "empty" and "full" and keep them synchronized. If your phone has never seen an extended battery and the battery was at partial charge when inserted, it may not have been able to accurately gauge the minimum and maximum extents and give faulty readings based on prior battery data.

That could be wrong, and I don't know for sure. But, a complete drain and recharge never hurts anyway, and in my case it actually seemed to solve the problem for me.

Good luck!

I don't think I can get the gold card to work...

I got an extra MSD from my boss, all he had was a SanDisk 2gb, and I tried the gold card method on both my work laptop and work desktop (both XP). I could not get the SDK to work (prolly the issue) on either, maybe I just don't know what I'm doing with that, so I got the CID vid Terminal Emulator on the MT3G. I follow the steps to flip it, made sure the first two were "00"s, and did the hex edit. I then loaded the file, and I still get "Older Version Is Newwer"... Same both times.

I guess it could be the card, dunno.

When I try to run the SDK, it gives an error that a file can't be reached. DL'ed it, placed it, nogo (both times). The drivers also won't install. I tried the UnLockr method, same.

So, basically, I can't use the SDK. I just got the CID from the emulator, hex-edited, and failed. Is my not being able to use the SDK the issue?

Anyone in Austin wanna help me with this? lol
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] javon27:
Shouldn't be necessary...

I'm also having errors with getting two different sd cards to work. My errors are Model ID incorrect. I do have the SDK installed on my computer, but I don't think it's necessary as long as you are getting the correct cid from your phone for the sd card. I'm pretty sure you copied the cid correctly, or else you wouldn't get past the copying of the goldcard image. I wish there was more information on creating these damn goldcards. Both of my goldcards never asked me to reformat after copying the goldcard image to their boot sectors, so why can't we get root????

I"m on a manhunt, so i'll share anything i find...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] knny1491:
to the first guy, what is your spl?

Sent from my HTC Magic using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] VisualOddity:
What is an SPL?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] knny1491:
It's in simple terms the "security" of the phone. If you have a perfected SPL it's near impossible to root. If you turn your phone off then hold the back button and power at the same time a white screen with androids on skateboards will pop up and your phones information will pop up at the top. It will say something like hboot 1.33.0007 or the million others out there.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ekie84:
i have the perfect spl right? 1.76.0007

i cant backup recovery image,its said backup FAILED : cannot run command

do i have to do the gold card??:confused:
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] knny1491:
I'm not sure exactly abotu that SPL because I think ti is 32a specific and I am only knowledgable on 32b phones.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] VisualOddity:
the Perfect 1.33.007 :(
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] knny1491:
Then follow the link in my sig, I successfully rooted my sisters phone with that SPL.
[Nexus One General] tonnic:
sorry if this is somewhere else, can't search with app.

my phone has been unplugged and used off and on for an hour now and I am at 84%. I've read people say they use their phones for 12 hours without a problem. I have tried 2 different batteries and its the same. by 5pm if I haven't plugged it in, it's dead.
[Nexus One General] christiankk:
oh good lord. it all depends on your usage pattern.

if you fill your car with gas - how long time car you drive it?

no-one can answer that question. :confused:
[Nexus One General] ap3604:
ROFL that is an awesome analogy :D
[Nexus One General] RogerPodacter:
i used to only make it 6 hours on one battery. but then yesterday we found a new setting which i can now go 12.5 hours yesterday without even trying hard. go to *#*#4636#*#* and change to GSM Auto (PRL), this more than doubled my battery life. and you do not lose 3G, the phone will still use 3G just like normal. try it out.
[Nexus One General] ap3604:
Thanks for the info Roger. Why does it more than double the battery life in your opinion?
[Nexus One General] tonnic:
I don't think I use it out of the norm. I check my phone when it notifies me of messages, come on this xda app and sometimes browse the web.... it's not like I'm streaming music, playing games or anything else a lot.
[Nexus One General] D200P13:
i too have found my phone dead in the morning when before going to bed was at 65% full. im still wondering the best settings for home and travel before switching to gsm auto prl because i dont want to drop totally dead when going outside 3g tmobile.

i also found my wifi is always on even if sleep. after i figure out this network deal ill do something with the wifi only being on when the phone is screen on and in my home. that will prob save me tons of battery.
[Nexus One General] Jack_R1:
I run wifi constantly on, the overnight drop is around 10-15%.
[Nexus One General] diversificationied:
It should last 14 hours if you use 100 Ma of power per hour from a 100 percent charge to 0 percent charge.
[Nexus One General] Eclair~:
I didn't know it was possible, but with IntersectRavens kernel (or whatever his name is lol) I can actually lose 1 percent of battery life in one hour (or close to an hour).

Though without turning my mobile internet off with Juice Defender's APN widget, this wouldn't be much possible. I found this very surprising, I thought people were making false claims about this.

Edit:

Lol I must have exaggerated quite a bit. I was just astonished.. I don't really know how to explain my battery life I guess.. Its a day, and most of the night. Half of the next day might work as well if I didn't charge it through the night.

(from next page)
[Nexus One General] rori~:
1% in 1 hour..so your battery life "could" be 4 days :)

I should edit that post, shouldn't I.. four days would be impressive.
[Nexus One General] lostsoul3471:
I'm gonna plug an app for this. It's not exactly the best thing out there in terms of an app killer (which from what I understand is a no-no anyway) but there are some nice little features that will really help narrow down some power use issues.

Do a search for SystemPanel and turn on Monitoring. It'll track when you have the phone on a charger, relative battery drain as well as device usage and cpu utilization all in separate histograms over time. History is saved (most likely in a log file) and can display from the last 2 hours to the last week. Without having to dive too deep into system settings you can track this info with just a few button presses.

I found out that using GSM Auto (PRL) and dropping the auto brightness and live wallpaper really did save a bunch as well and I was able to track the difference with the app. I also found out that playing too much Jewels will eat my battery like it was a cake at a weight watchers center. :D
[Nexus One General] RogerPodacter:
i dont think anybody knows why or how that works. i'm still confused as to why it would even make a difference, but it DOES seem to help from my testing so far. today i am at 8 hours since unplugged, and still have 57% battery left, which is much better than i used to get. that's on pace for at least a 16-20 hour day which i would be happy if i could make it thru a day like that without having to charge.
[Nexus One General] rori~:
Aren't there any explanations from Google about those settings ??

Hey Everyone,

I have a Tmo HD2 with Kumar's ROM on there and its great. I especially like the WiFi Router so i can connect my iPad or laptop from anywhere. But since i'm doing it at work, I don't want the wifi SSID being broadcast. I know it's not really hidden and anyone who really wanted to, could go out and find it. But at least this is a small hindrance in their way. so as the title says, i want to hide the SSID in that app. Is that possible? I don't see the option, but maybe i'm just missing it. :confused: Thanks for your help in advance.l

Hello,

I too had the MMS problems of not being able to send MMS at all, kept getting "Generic network error",

But fixed it rather simply, in the APN section on the desire, i simple deleted the USERNAME, left it blank, immediatly my MMS messages started sending and are AOK now.....

BUT: only worked when WiFi was off ......

Hopefully this will help everyone else out too..

I know their is another thread describing these problems, but i thought this is Virgin specific fix not t-mobile and hopefully this is the fix, but hay it may work for you tmobile guys idk.

I was listening to some music with the included HTC headset when I received a call. I started to hear the ringtone mixed with the Mp3 I was listening to. I pressed the answer button on the cable several times but I couldnt start the conversation. The ringtone was going on and on and feels like the phone froze somehow. It took me while to get the Desire back to senses and call the person back!

Anyone had this prob with the HTC headset?
[Droid Incredible General] mrmomoman:
I guess we have to be rooted to put in the HTC MAIL APP that came with the desire in our incredible?

I hate that fact that it only gives you one option which is the single email view instead of the other options that is offered in the HTC Desire and Legend and soon EVO 4 by Sprint.

I hate it when carriers mess with basics. Why offer just one option of format for HTC MAIL if you are going to offer it at all. Just provide the entire Application without modifications!

Okay off soap box.

Hi all. I have an HTC HD2 in the UK on Orange which gives me billions of free minutes - great for me to use for my business calls. At least it would be if it wasn't for the pain of having to read every number from Outlook or my browser and punch it into my phone by hand.

Is there a bit of software out there that will allow me to dial through my usb or BlueTooth connected phone from my Win7(32) PC? Perhaps from the clipboard or a context menu. If it uses my PC mic/speakers as a hands-free that's also a bonus, but not essential.

All my searches on the subject return info on VOIP etc, which I'm not looking for

Can someone point me in the right direction?

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bully666:
I cant remmember exactly what happend, but I will give me best shot at explaning things.

My X1 will not boot up correctly anymore, it got stuck on the main screen when windows mobile starts to load. I can access panels from which I can start the programs that are in quick lunch menu, but I cant open a normal menu from start on the up of the screen.

I think the WiFi is messing things up, because I cannot deactive it from the panels, but I can enable/disable phone and speaker. I also cannot enable/disable bluetooth which I believe its connected to WiFi. If I remmember correctly I do believe I had some problems with wifi and I had to remove the battery a few days ago, because wifi somehow freezed up my whole X1, but I am not sure what exactly i was doing.

Nothing helps, removing battery, soft reseting it, it always gets stuck with the main screen loading.

I would REALLY REALLY not want to hard reset it and installing things from the start. Is there any way to reset wifi setting or going into some "safe mode" like with normal windows, or anything else I can try?

I was using original ROM, the latest one, no addons.

[Hero CDMA Accessories] Kcarpenter:
If you guys would give me a good algorithim to test read/write speeds I can work on it later tonight. It will probably take a few days a best.

But My idea is write a 2 meg file to the SD card, time it. Read the same file from the card, time it. Do a little math...present some numbers...

Now there are a lot of issues that could come into play with that method. Maybe repeat it 3 or 4 times just to see an average, but still its not the best that it could be.
