Battery Drain Issues.

Looking at this Forum, these guys seem to have come up with a couple of solutions to this problem.

One guy saying that, if you are using this ROM, and charge you phone using usb cable (through computer) you have to reboot into recovery and clear battery stats, then unplug your usb then reboot your phone, and its all good.

Another guy said to flash an older Kernel 2.6.34.7, and that fixes the problem.

Here is the site http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/9044-61rc1-battery-drain/

Has anyone tried these, if it works I may myself reinstall this ROM, until i see a definate fix Im not gonna waste my time.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] vercetti:
hey,

i read that thread at cyanogen-forum too some days ago but i saw that froyorider does not run the 2.6.35.xx kernel anyway, so the "charging via usb and then restarting the phone to get normal battery life" does not apply. last time i checked, froyorider runs the 2.6.34.xx kernel and that one does not have these issues. if it had the 2.6.35.xx kernel, then yes, this would apply.

i switched to CM6 nightly build again, after i couldn't get rid of the battery drain in froyorider. i installed nightly 233 with a colored theme and pershoot's kernel 2.6.34.7. running fine so far. stock camera also works fine.

i'll see what battery life is like. but so far it's ok. no real drain.

greetz,

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] wuhuan:
So you switched to radio 3.22?

I wish there could be a 6.35 radio port
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] vercetti:
yes, back to old radio. not a big problem for me.

sure, battery life usually is better on new radio but not in this case.

plus, camera works too.

it's always hard to find a rom that fits all your needs i think. usually there's always something that isn't the way you want it. for me at least...

so it's a compromise, weighing off pros/cons. i used to be sense-fanboy (still am i guess), but so far no real/fast/stable 2.2 sense rom, only CM6 and offcial 2.2 (without CM6 features). after using cursorsense for almost a year i've been switching roms every couple days/weeks and still haven't found "the one" that i want to stick with...

i'd settle for the official 2.2 release if it had some nice CM features integrated, like changing the status bar to black for example. but so far there hasn't been development in that direction i think.

we'll see what comes along! :-)

greetz,

Tried this rom, but I had battery drain with it :s

I didn't used my phone and I had to recharge after 6 hours :s

wth :/
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Brillntred06:
Absolutely loving the ROM! First cyanogen based ROM and first froyo. Keep up the great work giant rider.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Nabukodonosor:
After installing the rom, I have no network at all. Then I've installed the google apps update, and the network came up. Then, after half an hour, no network again! Also, after reset, i have network for couple minutes, and then it's gone. I've just put the newest radio, and flashed the rom, but no changes. Is there a fix for this?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Nabukodonosor:
After some playing with the rom, i've come to conclusion that as soon as display turns off, the network is gone.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] albert1691:

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Did you try the link called MIRRORS?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kapernando:
I've been using FroyoRIder for a while now, but the latest release, 2.1 is not that great. The few problems I've had so far are:

- No network - I get "Error searching for network" when I try to search for one.

- Facebook sync doesn't work.

- Sometimes pressing power or Menu doesn't turn on the screen, just the button backlight.

- Call quality is pretty poor and intermittent. Sometimes it works fine, sometimes I'll get a call and won't hear anything.

There's just a lot of little things and some big things that don't work anymore, so I had to revert to 2.0
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Facebook sync works fine for me. The latter problem that I quoted is quite annoying though, especially if you are just quickly trying to check the clock. Cellphone standby seems to drain the battery a lot, not sure why. Better on 2g I think (makes sense).

Edit: Well I'm using only 2g now and cellphone standby is 70%, haven't used the phone much either. It says 9% without signal which doesn't sound too good to me :/
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Jacobb:
Hi,

I just rooted my Magic and installed Froyorider 2.0.

I might be missing something (XDA newbee), but when I enter numbers in the dialer, it doesn't suggest contact names or earlier dialed numbers from the call log.

How do I enable that - if possible?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Nabukodonosor:
I have the network problem with version 2.0 too.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tuzz:
This is not an issue. Every non-sense rom does not have dialer contact search.

The correct way to search your contact to call is to press the search button and start to digit his name.

If you wanna a dialer that search in your contact try to search in the market :-)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jimqdu:
I flashed this ROM. It worked well...

I want to flash agaign. But I can't download agaign...

gps fix?

hey all,

thanks for this rom.

works and feels great.., except for the gps.

i havent been able to make it work with either this nor the previous rom version.

using eu_gps fix since the beginning but no luck so far.

tried all the gps test-tools-apps-whatever from the market, but none of them show any gps action...

any ideas?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] chaosmobc:
i have been facing random restart. any idea? using the recommended radio
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Mr.H-DK:
I have 2.0 installed and I have some gps issues to. Sometimes it works, but not sure when. I remember when I installed eu_gps it worked just after that, but after a day or two is was gone again. Reflashing eu_gps is not working. Is thinking about flashing asien_gps and then eu_gps just to see if it works.

Anyone else with same issues and maybe a real fix?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] zszhang2009:
Use the 6.35.16.19 Radio maybe help, I had ever experience the same problem with 6.35.10.18 Radio.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] enek:
This is a feature of Sense UI. It is not available in non-sense UI. You'll have to download a different ROM.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kenwo1:
You can download the DialerOne app that can do the search-as-you-type functionality. Just set it as the default dialer app and you're good to go :)

How to choose kernel

hi guys.

sry if this was asked or posted before, I've already searched for an answer but didn't find anything.

I've read that the are two types of kernels in this ROM based on cpu Clocking range.

A: 245/652 MHz

B: 122-729 MHz

As you already guessed I'm new to all of this so here it goes:

I've download and flash the Rom in the first post of the thread (FroyoRider_FeeyoCM61_6.35_34_v2.1.zip) and it's working great (except camera, browser and google gogles IPv6 problem). Here's my info:

Htc Magic

63.18.55.06jH_6.35.08.29

2.6.34.2-Cronos feeyo@Cronos#1

CyanogenMod-6.1.0-RC0-DS

So here it goes, when I use setcpu to overclock the maximum threshhold is 556MGHz. Why is that? Why cant I reach 729 Mghz if Im using the 2.6.34.2 kernel? The second thing is that I saw in cm website that there newer versions of cm6. Im takling about RC1,RC2,RC3,RC1-DS. If I install RC1-DS (which is the latest) will it fix the overclocking and (gogles) IPv6 problems?

Thank you in advance. Sorry if Im double posting.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yguns76:
I have tried both radio and I just recently had problems with .19 after using if for one day I lost wifi with 6.35.16.19. I only switched to .19 to see if battery life was better. I had no issues with 6.35.10.18 and currently using it.

My 2 cents.

Love this rom!!!

Thanks for the great work! Blazing fast compared to Smoki! Only problem is the battery drain ... made 2 <5 min phone calls .. battery is at 43% after 10hrs.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sevag00:
how can i flash the gapps zip file using adb? I've copied and renamed it in my sd card as update.zip.

EDIT: How come there is no Market app?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kapernando:
Does anyone else have problems with their Google Maps and latitude?

It seems that after updating Google Maps to 4.7.0 my location does not update through 3G. I have to turn on the GPS or WiFi to get my location to update. Weirdly enough, after I turn the GPS or WiFi off, my location goes back to where it was. My Google home page also doesn't show my location (under the search field) and sometimes say "Location unavailable."

network problem

Hello to all!

Good work with the rom.

Did anyone have problems with network. When my magic goes to locksscreen it loses network and after unlocking I can't connect to operater. I must reboot. Then after reboot when the screen goes off again the network is lost again.

Anyone knows a solution?

Thanks in advance.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] alex_canada:
If you're talking about Wifi as the network that gets disconnected when you lock screen that is easy...there's an advanced wifi sleep setup if you press Menu key while under Wifi selection menu and instruct it to stay on all the time.

If you're talking 3G than I don't know, I have used the ROM you are using the very same version and haven't had that problem at all.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tuzz:
Any hope to have a new release soon?

GPS Problem Solved!

Hi, I've had problems with the GPS since I've used this ROM on radio 6.35.10.18 I could never get better than a rough cell phone tower based location.

Version 2 and 2.1 didn't work, even after flashing the gps fixes mentioned in the first post.

I have now upgraded the radio to 6.35.16.19 and it now works perfectly! (so far)

In order to achieve this I installed the Android SDK (on ubuntu) installed fastboot and flashed the updated radio .img file in fastboot

Thanks for a great rom! easily the best 2.2 I've used

Now I just wonder how to use the camera for bar code reading / google goggles...I can use ToyCam for general use but this doesn't seem to work with other apps. Any ideas?

Cheers

So now when htc release source for .32 kernel (32b), can we use it to compile kernel for 32a who work with NR ?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] rps13:
HTC did not make the .32 kernel for the 32B, Google did so the source code is already available but porting to NR isn't easy because there are a lot of changes to make (drivers etc.)

seems as development for this rom has stopped? any news or updates giant rider?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Brillntred06:
Does anyone know why Apps2SD would suddenly stop functioning? I tried reformatting my SD card, re-partitioning the SD (even upgrading to ext 3) and I wiped everything and reloaded the ROM. I was reading through some posts saying that FROYO has native apps2sd but when I try to move my apps it just says there's not enough room even when i have a 4gb card with plenty of free memory.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
I've been busy so I have not been able to give it much time. Plus if you look at the CM commits there has not been any major fixes or updates from them to the base that I can see. At some point I am sure I will update but I am not sure when. Sorry.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
No, problem. We all get busy. I just want froyo with the 6.35 radio that doesnt drain my bat life (latest build of this does, dont know why) and a camera :P
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Life Engineer:
Hey all!

I've flashed this ROM and it's working perfectly!

However, i wish to upgrade to latest launcher pro plus but i can't! Installation fails!

I know that these apps are introduced in the rom itself and they can't be uninstalled! Am i right?!

I just want to know where to find them, and how to delete them or upgrade them!?

Especially launcher pro!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] alex_canada:
I think you can install those apps packaged with the ROM using Titanium Backup app.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Life Engineer:
I tried this; uninstalled it and then installed it but also installation failed!

One more thing! I'm getting 66mA in currentwidget after unlocking (on rest) with everything OFF!!!

Even after a reboot i'm still getting 66mA!!! Heavy battery drain!!!

Anybody experiencing that too!?!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
I hear ya.

Unfortunately fixing those bugs is beyond my ability and so I have to rely on other more capable devs and they are supporting a lot of devices (ours seems to be a lower priority).
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Mr.H-DK:
I updated mine some time ago. Try going into recovery and install it from there with adb.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Understandble. I'm want to get into ROM devlopement. But I'm most deffs far from being able to fix any of these issues (or any for that manner)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Have you started playing with a rom kitchen like the one posted at the bottom of my first link?

That would be a good place to start IMHO.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] capychimp:
yes the kitchen is the best start, i agree with giant on that
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Yea, I went to go and start but the download link is down (last time I checked) on the kitchen thread
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
It's just hard to find. I think this should work...

Or this direct link

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] rand0m-:
for anyone who has had trouble updating to Launcher Pro Plus... just use adb shell to uninstall the current version, then manually install the newer one... worked fine for me on this rom.

PS: this rom is incredible even on this bunk old-ass phone.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] b4u2r1:
great rom...except for battery life.

I have been monitoring battery comsumption over the past week using currentwidget. I found com.amazom.mp3 was constantly running in the background and using a lot of power. I would kill the app thinking all would be good only to find moments later that it was back up and running. I tried to uninstall it but couldn't. eventualy i found this http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/2951-battery-drain-and-uninstalling-stock-system-apps/

and got rid of it.

now my current draw is

idle is 65mA

idle with wifi 73mA

idle with screen on 159mA

My battery life is ok now and i can make it a whole day without the phone dying.

cheers
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
I used Titanium back up to uninstall stuff like that, I also turn off my orientation sensor (hate typing sideways) and ajust my brightness depending on where I'm using my phone. Found it helps my bat life a lot more.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Hieber:
I take it there aren't any more updates for this rom? :(
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Maxxy13:
The CM6.1 stable has just been released. Can this ROM please just be updated to this level?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
There are issues with the kernel for the 32a Magic/Sapphire when using the new 6.35 radio.

The kernels we have are not compatible (as currently compiled) with the latest CM6.1 releases (as currently compiled).

Carz's latest kernel won't work with the libandroid_servers.so in the latest CM6.1 - or at least I can't get it to work. So an update is not currently possible (not with my skills anyway). When progress is made I will definitely update this rom.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] capychimp:
looks like with this, and the froyosense its close to be the end of porting to magic (new radio)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Maxxy13:
Thank you for the update. At least we know now where we stand.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Maxxy13:
It very well might be. Especially now with Gingerbread coming out on the next day or so and our phones becoming more and more obsolete.

Your Froyosense however seems to have good potential. Any further plans on it?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
It's kind of sad / lame actually IMHO, but I guess you can't fault devs for moving to new hardware.

My wife just got an Acer Liquid E through Rogers (I would have preferred the HTC Desire Z, but Rogers is not offering the top Android phones these days).

Acer comes with pretty much a stock AOSP rom. It took less than 2 hours of work for me to root the phone, install a few apps like AutoKiller and Spareparts, tweak a few things here and there, and already it runs way better than the roms I have tried on my Magic. And I haven't even bothered with testing an OC kernel or installing SetCPU. All of the features work fine. The phone cost $20 CAD with a 3 year plan. (Rogers still sells the Magic for $80 with a 3 year plan :eek:)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] capychimp:
well from what i heard giant desireZ is thick and keyboard seems to be loose on it, but yeah your pretty stuck in canada on phone's
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] DannyBiker:
Oh if only those plans existed in my small Belgium. No such thing here.

You want a HTC Desire HD ? Well get those $600 ready.:rolleyes:
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
One of the other Canadian carriers, Bell, offers the HTC Desire Z. I went in and played with it a bit. It was slick and fast, but yeah the keyboard has a bit of a loose feel to it. My wife's Acer Liquid E is pretty nice - not the top model out there but it exceeds all her needs :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
I sure wouldn't want to spend $600 on a phone. We end up paying the same (and maybe even more) on a 3 yr plan, but it's much nicer for me not to have to lay out the big bucks when getting a new phone.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] capychimp:
i paid 1000DKK for the hd, and do not regret it at all, man its a nice phone

Where is this kernel ?

Thanks !
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Donkey3000:
Strange issue. My battery for the most part is fine. If i put it to airplane mode at night, quite often it will die within an hour or two eating up the remaining 50% that's left. If I leave it with the radios on, It will drain slower and generally be about 20% by the end of the night. Anybody else have issues with airplane mode draining the battery? I put it in this mode to save battery, not have it drain! FYI: I have very few apps installed on the phone and ones I have been using for a long long time without issue.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Rad through the details in the second post on the first page of this thread.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
I think there must be an issue with airplane mode in CM. Maybe a half dozen people have identified it before.

I just kill most of my apps and then leave my phone for the night and my battery is fine in the morning.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Donkey3000:
Thanks, I thought I might be crazy but now know I'm not the only one! I normally go airplane mode and plug it in, but sometimes I forget the plug part and find myself with a drained battery in the morning.

Great ROM if I've never said so before. Was using 0.6.something of this rom for months until I finally upgraded with a full wipe a few weeks back.

Cheers!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] raindrop2012:
Hi , I read several times, but still don't understand very much

Hi, I am so sorry, I still can not understand, I have flashed this rom:

Download the ROM:

FroyoRider_FeeyoCM61_6.35_34_v2.1.zip

MD5sum 4dc42d405b01a00ac795338531539210

mirrors

it seems that it is a .34 kernal, which means I can have 652MHZ cpu, right ?

but actually I only get 576MHZ.

so if I want to use 652MHZ oc, then what kernal should I flash ?

Thanks very much for your patience.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
The quickest thing to do would be to flash v1.1, FroyoRider_Switch_6.35_34_v1.1.zip. That will allow you to OC with SetCPU. Otherwise you'll have to mess around with flashing kernels over roms and I can't remember which are compatible with v2.1.

Alternatively you could try flashing carz's latest kernel over v2.1. Actually I think that should work fine. Check this thread out:

do somebody think that would be possible to put the dialer of the roger release (the one with t9 search) and a perfect working camera on this rom?? (my camera works only for two photo, and after i must restart to use it again.. :( )

with these things this rom would be perfect!!

Do themes work on this?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Mr.H-DK:
I am using Camera Magic and if I take a picture and exit the application, starting it up again, then I don't have any problems. A bit of a workaround, but it works.

I still hope that we will get a fully functional camera before the ROM dies out. I am NOT getting a phone yet. This ROM gave my phone a life to live!
