how can i see what app kept the phone awake in spare parts?

i can see the running time. amd some cpu usage related stats. but witch stat tells me what kept the system from sleeping?

Also i think there is something seriusley wrong with GPS. I tested in the car this morning.get 3-4 satelite fix then all satelites drop then about 3-4 sec later i get a fix with a few satelites again.... i usually have a constant fix with 9-12 satelites outside. I tested with "GPS status" app and its clear there is a problem.

Anyway. Im running the new OU Radio. Im going to do some testing with the JU radio later today.

EDIT. and yeah it allso dropped completley after some time.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jankhner:
just wanted to let you know i haven't had any problems with this rom waking up even with 691/160... I had the problem before with other ROMs but not with this one :)

i'm using RC1...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gensplejs:
Same here. 691/160 running perfectley.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lukesky:
then I'm out of ideas to help you.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
I will try to fix the GPS again in RC3. I don't know what is causing the issue at the moment. Anyway, I think at the moment you should use A-GPS insead of GPS, it does not let you down.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lukesky:
I too had the same problems with the faster one. But I could install without an ext partition though.

My Hero also sometimes didn't want to wake up when the freq was at 245Mhz, but changing it to 249Mhz solved the problem. I'm using SetCPU with a custom list of frequencies taken from another ROM.

The charging LED is a known problem, but a minor one.

That's the same thing I was wondering, why using official ROM was fine but using a 3rd party ROM forced me to up the sleep frequency by 4 Mhz..

Just a feeling, but is a more aggresive taskkiller active?

Maybe also Killing GPS?.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
No, at the moment the internal task killer is not touched. And even if it was, it could not kill gps.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lukesky:
I thought the GPS problem was fixed with the newest radio?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gensplejs:
I also still get two setup choices when flashing rc2 :-)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
Yes, I know that. Just follow the related instructions in the first post :P
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gensplejs:
Currently im testing using an app called gps status.

Its good in the way that you can see the number of sattelites it has connection to and it shows when you last had a fix. its clear that the gps constantley looses connection and after some time finally freezes. Problems are the same in JU and OU radio :-(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gensplejs:
I know i know. Just making you remember so you can fix it for the final. Should be a minor detail :-)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] noobhero:
dun worry.

reboot solves everything..

just a little annoying at times. lol
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] appel_:
I've now changed so that screen off freq is 245-480. This seems to work. Setting min lower or max to 245 causes issues with waking up.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
If you set it to 245-480 it won't stay too much time at 245... anyway it shouldn't affect battery life so much.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lukesky:
you should try setting both min and max to 249mhz. it worked for me. but u'd need to have a txt file with this special 249mhz frequency in your sd card though.

if you're using setcpu 1.5.4, then you can try using this txt file with all the uncommon frequencies inside.

*use this at your own risk, so make sure you know what you're doing!*

Just flashed & got all my apps back on. It's awesome, thanks mate! I'm very happy! It's a massive improvement over the stock Android 1.5 I had. Cheers!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
It is not kernel related though... let me see what I can do.

How is the overall performance/stability?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bullbutch:
Well, my contacts don't get any pictures...:S

And what about picasa? It's gone?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
I haven't seen it yet probably because I don't use it but yes, Picasa sync is gone.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bullbutch:
Ok. I will have to live without picasa sync then.

Still after about one hour I can't see my contact pictures.

Anyhow, I really appreciate your work. I will donate as soon as I get my paycheck! :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Summered:
It's really fast! And about stability: I haven't used it long enough to tell :P

EDIT: Well yeah, sometimes it doesn't wake up from sleep and I have to press the sleep button again, and then menu to make it work. I had the same problem earlier, it was because of a too low sleep-clock.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
FB sync worked good for me. I will try to see what's causing it.

Thanks mate!

PS: @all Please report your battery life, and issues related to waking-up(if when you get a call and the phone sleeps there is a delay) and 3D performance, stability and overall impressions.

Fabulous rom - USB Tethering not working

Thank you for this fabulous rom. Very fast and stable!

USB tethering doesn't seem to work. The option 'Internet tethering' is enabled in Settings but no connection is made. Other roms with this option do work. Can you take a look at this?

For me USB tethering is important because the Wireless tether applications use a lot of battery.

I queried the "Auto Brightness" on EzHero with a few people and they confirm, after testing that it is in fact working.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] L0cke:
Hmmm strange. I am seeing excellent battery life. Overnight (9hrs), just with standard data, and background sync I lose about 5%.

I use "Auto Memory Manager", and "SetCPU". I do only have the CPU at a Max of 518 though. And when the screen is off, Min & Max both set to 245.

I'm not using the new Radio though.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] appel_:
Thanks. Seems to work just fine. If it actually underclocks the cpu now I can't tell.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jnk1348:
new ROM has nothing to do with your poor battery life... I use it and my battery lasts at very least 48hrs with a single charge. How old is you battery, and did you take care of it (not charging all the time, etc.)?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jankhner:
People who have good battery life, do you use LauncherPro or the original home application? I found out that using LauncherPro my battery went from 70% to 60% in an hour but after i disabled LauncherPro it went from 60% to 57% in an hour.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
This thing should not even eat battery anymore(jokin'). I've tweaked the OC-part and now it will hardly use go to 691MHz. It will go there only when necessary. Moreover, I've given the CPU a little bit more voltage while at 160MHz, so we won't have any more problems when waking up.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] naholyr:
I will test your ROM as I'm very disappointed by VillainRom, far slower and more battery-greedy than my good old BeHero + .29 kernel ;)

My main concern is about battery life, and you seem to have done quite a good work with that ! When you say 0% in 6 hours, you mean with all data on, always-on data, facebook sync, and a twitter widget + some rss feeds ? :P
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Summered:
I lost about 4 % in 6 hours with regular usage; i.e., messaging, checking some internet, 3g data on all the time, and syncs (no FB/twitter).
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
I easily got 24 hours with RC2, but I installed it at about 54% battery.

EDIT: this was with Wifi on, Data, and auto-sync with 2 hours for FB and Twitter.

Just flashed 3.3 RC3 without a wipe, and it booted up in like 30 sec, nice!

So far haven't seen any wake up issues, but I'm charging so it might not underclock that much anyway.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
The battery should last for about 2 days without any doubts, but this deppends on how much you talk and use GPS.

@gensplejs

Sorry, I didn't realised that some APN are not there anymore. I will try to merge the two APN lists for the next release.

@iiro

It drops frequency, this thing isn't related to the device's charging state.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
Ok, then it should be better on my device. :D I got the occasional blueish lined screen, and two times I got orange-green distorted colors and upside-down images on 3.3 RC2. RC3 seems to wake up better and faster.

EDIT: Forgot to mention, I don't have any OC tools installed.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gensplejs:
Not a real problem for me. But some users seem to be fuzzing a lot about apn's. So i just thought you should know.

Maybe i don't care cuz 3's apn is so simple. apn: data.tre.dk :-) thats it. Just leave all other settings empty :-)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] heyodee:
Modules in too?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
The only thing you can do with the OC tool at the moment is to raise the minimum sleep frequency. Otherwise it's pretty useless, because I've optimized the frequency table to jump faster.

@heyodee

Yep, in there.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sandmen:
Thank's for your work, now i want to try this rom. :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] BorderlineVX:
Hello again,

1. Standby - didn't have much of a problem already with RC2. Maybe 1 out of 25 times it hung (screen backlight on but no display). In RC3 I can provoke that behaviour by locking/unlocking the Hero quickly. Again maybe 1 out of 25 times. Doesn't bother me a bit.

2. GPS - worked yesterday, but never tried a longer period. I will try that tomorrow.

3. BT audio - is functional again but it looks like audio transmission takes a bad hit from CPU throttling - just my guess. If I keep on moving my finger on the screen (thus creating CPU activity) it plays fine, if I let go it begins to stutter badly after a few seconds. Do I assume correctly you implemented some dynamic CPU throttling? Looks like BT audio has a pretty low priority in the scheduler.

4. Regular Audio - I played some music through the internal speaker and the screen went to standby. I woke it up and pulled the lock screen slider for muting audio to no avail. It said "Muted" but the music merrily went on :) Is this supposed to be like this?

5. Snappier - don't beat me but my Hero felt snappier with RC2. While scrolling or selecting contents on the screen the device would sometimes begin to stutter in the middle of it which leads to undesired results like selecting while I wanted to scroll or missing buttons because scrolling locks for some microseconds. No nitpicking here but this confuses me. Maybe related to CPU throttling as well?

In terms of battery life - I am sure this will be awesome. RC2 already was. With very moderate use I consumed just 9% battery in 20 hours.

Regards,

BorderlineVX
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
3. I will try to get BT's priority up, thanks for reporting that, it is very important

4. I think that switch only turns off the sounds like ringer, notification and such.

5. Reboot it for a couple of time and it will feel faster, for sure.

Cheers.
