[XPERIA X2 General] Xareth:
What happens when you try to help and warn in CAPITALS that you have not tested it.

Thank you all for your replies to my post above.

First of all, really sorry to have disappeared but I have entered a new job and have been busy as heck to reach a stable setup.

Even though the testing of the reg keys failed, I am happy that it at least has gotten us closer to finding a solution since we found out they did not work :D

What next? Well, what else! Gotta try to find other ways. This time I can test since I have my X2 and am using it regularly.

@lo: don't give up, don't assume it's the end! I am now checking if it has to do with the SD card access (delayed reading).

@michaelthemage: I know you are frustrated and want a working answer at once, but:

1. this is a community forum not a support centre so don't assume I or anyone else is making up any crappy settings. We're just trying to find the right answers.

2. and yes, I can make mistakes just like you or anyone else. For example you did not read my first line saying I did not test the settings since I did not have a device to test with! Demanding much?

3. I don't think we can limit things to X2 only registry settings because first of all, it's not out there in the open to know which settings are only for X2! I removed the obvious HTC reg keys and went on from there. I think that is the next best thing to finding an answer, instead of hitting a dead end. I ask you to also try to find an answer or at least post something more constructive.

4. Sony previously worked with HTC (HTC was making the components for previous Sony devices) and therefore it is logical there may be some HTC keys which are applicable. I will tell you right now many fixes that work for HTC work for the X2! Have you ever wondered why? Of course I may be wrong too but I'm trying to find out if I am!

5. Let's go on to hardware. Many smartphone manufacturers are only integrators. Even HTC buys its parts from another company in China. So don't tell me it does not have similar hardware to HTC until you have opened both companys' phones and confirmed (which I have btw, the opening not the confirming). It's like saying LG Laptops do not have LCD screens like Samsung Laptops when Samsung manufactures the LCDs for LG.
[XPERIA X2 General] michaelthemage:
Get a life!

Dude, I don't have the time nor inclination to answer this crap in several paragraphs. Still these reg settings are crap and somebody posting this crap is responsible if any noob applies them and screws up their phones. That is the crap! That's it! ;)

Heard it from a friend who heard it from a friend, etc...

Supposedly Wisconsin has a 4G network already, and it is just a licensing issue?

Any truth to this?
[EVO 4G General] ernicoats:
it would be nice if madison would get 4g. we already have a city wide Wifi network. I could see madison getting the google internet deal and not having 4G in place.
[EVO 4G General] nacase:
I'm not aware of any existing 4G network here.

Madison did (or still does?) have a WiMAX network, courtesy of TDS. However, this was "fixed" WiMAX for home broadband access and not the "mobile" variant.

I don't see this service advertised anymore either.
[EVO 4G General] MordyT:
So there might be something to it?

I didn't know Madison had anything of 4g...
[EVO 4G General] plmiller0905:
That would be nice if we got 4G in Wisconsin. I live in Janesville and ATT just started their 3G service out here like 2-3 months ago.
[EVO 4G General] storino03:
I heard 4G is coming to Milwaukee by the end of the year, from a guy at RS. Who knows really. I don't mind as Chicago is just right there.

[EVO 4G General] bigfire8:
Any new info on this? I'm tired of paying a ten dollar 'premium data' fee and not getting the service. It's understandable if not every city can be turned on right away, but to not even know a target date makes me consider dumping sprint for T-mo.
[EVO 4G General] thetakara:
You bought the phone knowing what coverage areas they have planned out by the end of the year.

Beyond that, nothing else is known. Sprint will announce it when they are ready, if they do.

http://shop.sprint.com/en/stores/popups/4G_coverage_popup.shtml

That shows you their 4G currently. Wisconsin is not on it.
[EVO 4G General] muppetman462:
I was talking a sprint representative at the sprint store in Madison, and he said that Milwaukee was suppose to get 4-g either the end of 2010 or the beginning of 2011, and Madison would be a few months behind that. Hard to know for sure though....
[EVO 4G General] thetakara:
I just love rumors and hearsay. I just wait until things are said officially.
[EVO 4G General] m4rk0358:
Correct me if I'm wrong but aren't we still getting a pretty darn good value, with or without 4G, when comparing to other carriers and what they offer?
[EVO 4G General] Blitzpwnage:
I hope they get it in milwaukee I live by the city and go to school in whitewater.....so madison getting it would be nice although I probably couldn't pick up the signal...i heard they would be getting it...milwaukee that is...by the end of 2010

Thanks for replying with absolutely no help at all. It's this type of service and dismissive correspondence that put Sprint on the bottom of the pile two years ago and only having the cheapest plans has brought this company back from possible bankruptcy. It's exactly what has me leaning to Verizon when my contract ends.

[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] kirilliz:
hi,

somebody know how i can enable the percentage display in the battery icon in status bar? i had it already activated once but now i cant find the option nowhere in the settings after flashing a new rom.. i thought it was in spare parts but it isn´t there anymore Oo

another thing is that sometimes when i acitvate the screen after sleep i get this weird color error like a negativ image with really strange looking colors.. than i have to put it back to sleepe and wake again and everything is normal again. i had this with lots of different roms so i think maybe it is a faulty display.. any ideas?
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] Foka002:
You can get battery percentage by downloading Battery indicator from the market.

I got the same problems with my screen only when OC speed is below 245MHZ. Make sure you have got min 384MHZ in sleep mode.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] kirilliz:
oh ok..

i downloaded the battery indicator but last time i had the percentage showing ion the regular battery symbol in the notification bar. now there are 2 battery icons :/ ..
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] mljjlm:
i'm able to do this in cyanogens roms.. but havent tried on sense-roms, actually..

in cyanogen-roms it's located in spare parts
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] kirilliz:
ok i found it in spare parts after all.. the thing is, spare parts is in the new rom i have (i think its ezhero) in the settings menu. but u can also download spare parts form the market which i did. and in the market version are a few options missing it seems.. well, thanks guys..
[General Questions and Answers] imakul8:
I installed CleanEx black bare version to my HD2. I usually use Task29, but did'nt since I was only testing. I then ran Task29 before installing Energy Rom Titanium. Now when, my HD2 boots up, it initially shows CleanEx boot screen and then Energy boot screen. I ran Task29 again and installed Energy Rom again, but the problem remains. I thought Task29 was supposed to clean all. How can I make my HD2 pure again? Please help, my phone is confused and so am I.:confused:

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lazyjohnnyK:
Hello great xdadevelopers, first I wanna say I love this site, absolutely, its perfect and helpful and interesting. But thats off topic, so lets start about my problem.

It's about two days ago I got to rooting my G1, downgrading and then installing the rom "[NewMethod][MOD][PATCH]CM5.0.7/8 AnySPL (NoneDanger)" (the one because it was anySPL and that was reasonable for me because I have HardSPL)

Everything is totally smoooooth, really great I love it, its fast, battery is ok and everything works just fine, except the audio. It started the day one after installing the ROM (Yes I did wipe and installed + gapps, etc.) my volume on the speaker was a little bit lower (but the in the software the volume was on max) but I could hear it, so I was hoping for the audio hack because I wanted my great loud g1 speaker back up, so I did the v3r2. Today morning I went to bus and wanted to put my headphones on .. I started the music, and nothing.. I swear nothing.. the phone recognizes the headphones but I can't hear anything! and when I unplugged them I tried to hear it from the speaker.. I really concentrated and I could hear the song but very very low volume, barely hearable. I am really confused and Im requesting and begging someone to help me out with this, I use my phone 50% for music and I need the sound! HELP!

UPDATE: Im still playing with the phone and now i realized... the sound doesnt come from the back speaker but from the front one ! HUH

FINAL UPDATE: Okay, I have just totally wiped the phone (battery, cache, 2nd cache, etc.) and installed the same ROM from scratch + gapps.. booted into phone, everything else fine, just the audio isnt good.. still coming from REAR SPEAKER!!! HELP

Thanks in advance,

xda fan.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slayor721:
all i can suggest is switchin to a different ROM. there r plenty that dont need the DangerSPL.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lazyjohnnyK:
Fine, I was afraid i bricked my phone after some time, because i was trying everything, but I rerolled back to STOCK.. so now Im without Root and all that stuff, but my speaker works and everything is ok..

Could you list me some ROM's that support HardSPL? Thank you in advance!

Hi all,

Please how to simply root Nexus One?

This tutorial is to hard "

[Tutorial] Root FRF85B/FRF83/FRF72 (T-Mo/AT&T) Without Unlocking (100% Confirmed) "

No superboot.zip available for FRF85B?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Simply root = unlock bootloader. The second tutorial.

superboot.zip has nothing to do with the way of rooting. Rooting needs to bypass device protection to flash a non-certified update. So you either use exploits, or use the built-in protection override (fastboot oem unlock).
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rusty!:
Depends on the status of your bootloader really.

If you want to keep it locked then that tutorial is your only hope.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zizouth:
I have unlocked bootloader but no superuser.apk and no Root privilege

About second Tutorial, we need linux....
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
If you have unlocked bootloader, what's the problem flashing pre-rooted FRF85B?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=714184
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zizouth:
I have already flashing my Nexus with Unrooted version because i had signature problem with pre-rooted version.

Now to re-install pre-rooted FRF85 version i need Custom Recovery but I need root to install custom recovery...

No way to have superboot.bat to simply rooted my FRF85?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
To install custom recovery you only need to flash it via fastboot, since your bootloader is unlocked.

You can also use ROOT_FRF83 file from the "difficult" thread, if I'm not mistaken.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zizouth:
Thank's for your reply.

I will install custom Recovery to flash with pre-rooted version.

I need wipe:( before flashing with pre-rooted version?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
No wipe needed.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zizouth:
About Custom recovery :

Pre-Requirements :

- unlocked bootloader : How to unlock the bootloader.

- root access : Modaco's superboot.

I have install recovery-RA-nexus-v1.7.0.1.img without rooting my nexus and now I have exclamation mark with a little Android...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
What about ROOT_FRF83.ZIP - did you try?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zizouth:
ROOT_FRF83.zip is for locked bootloader... mine is unlocked.

As i see i need linux and to make this command to root my stock FRF85B..

:(
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
ROOT_FRF83 is for ANY bootloader. It doesn't care about bootloader.

Download it to your SD card, rename to update.zip and apply. It might not work - in this case, you have nothing to do but to follow the other guide, or wait until someone makes FRF85B superboot for stock ROM and recovery.

The part you've quoted is way past the actual root. Read the thread again, the root ends much earlier.

You need to do steps 1-15, and you need no Linux.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
I checked again in Paul's thread, STOCK to CM.

There is NO requirement for root to flash custom recovery through fastboot. Otherwise fastboot wouldn't help any in rooting - think yourself, you need root to flash recovery, and you need recovery to flash root?

Here's a quote from there:

- If you get a Triangle with a ! in the middle alongside an Android for 5+ minutes, you MAY have to remove battery and re-flash recovery (I had to do this once.) (Make absolutely sure that nothing is happening on your phone, as removing the battery when it's doing something can cause a brick.)

So you can try this one and flash AmonRa's recovery again. If it doesn't work, and it turns out that you need Modaco's superboot (which doesn't exist for your version) - then you're back to the second guide.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zizouth:
I have always triangle with a ! after removing batterie, AmonRa's recovery won't appear...

I will wait superboot from paul.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zizouth:
Resolved :) :) :)

Step by Step how to get root from FRF85B stock (with unlocked bootloader) :

- Download AmonRa Custom Recovery and put it where google SDK, Tool folder, is installed.

- Download update-nexusone-FRF85-root-sig.zip and rename it update.zip and put it on the root of your SDCARD

1) Switch off the nexus

2) Hold the Trackball and Power button

3) fastboot devices (to make sure that fastboot "sees" your phone)

4) fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-nexus-v1.7.0.1.img

5) Don't reboot nexus! just chose "bootloader" from menu, after nexus reboot automaticly, chose recovery

6) AmonRa recovery appear!

7) Apply update.zip

You have root access!

[EVO 4G General] ejittles:
I've got two HTC Evo's. One lasts for 24+ hours on a single charge, the other lasts 3-4 hours tops. They are both have been running Fresh 0.3 until yesterday. I upgraded one to 0.5 and the other will remain at 0.3 until today. The one still running 0.3 has terrible battery life. I've been running system panel on both and saw that Android.process.acore has kept the CPU ramped up for hours on end, the battery is always 40C+ and when I checked on it this morning it had been streaming 200kbps of data nonstop through the night. There are no market apps installed on this phone except for Advanced Task Killer, GScript Lite, and System Panel. There are no apps installed from untrusted sources.

Anyone know what Android.process.acore does exactly, and why it would be streaming data all night long? System and System Processes also have much higher CPU utilization on this phone as well. I've tried reinstalling Fresh, rebooting the phone, killing absolutely every task ATK will let me, etc and nothing seems to stop the flow of current. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

This happened with the stock software as well. One phone always lasted longer than the other. However, I'll let you know if Fresh 0.5 changes anything.

Thanks everyone.
[EVO 4G General] baiatul:
I upgraded 2 days ago. My phone was always stock. Yesterday I took lots of video, like 15 mins or more, and battery, and GPS, and Google sky. A friend of mine invited me to his boat and we were on the river for almost an hour. The battery was still on the green side. I definitely noticed some battery improvement after the software upgrade. When I watched the video on the computer I learned the hard way that there are not vertical HDTVs. :)

[EVO 4G General] scriptx:
ejittles I think what you're seeing is a sync-loop, likely with facebook or exchange. This was supposedly one of the things addressed in the recent OTA update.

Try removing and re-adding any accounts you're synced with, disabling background data, etc.
[EVO 4G General] ejittles:
Brilliant Scriptx, I'll bet that is exactly what it is. I'm guessing its the exchange server. I will give that a try when I get access to that phone tonight. Will keep you posted. Thanks a ton. :D
[EVO 4G General] Bloodsville:
HELLO

im with Him i also use shortcuts to turn on and off the internet (mobile) and i also use airplane mode when i don't what any one to call me my battery lasted MORE than 19hr and 31 min and i was using it downloding app, giving files, i saw some videos well you know the thing that you do when you brag about your phone. i am in the ARMY, so alot of people were looking at my iphonekiller (EVO) and wile some friends with evo battery already gone.... mine lasted 19:31 y lasted 24 before some sleep XD ( i have no ATK not needed for battery life)
[EVO 4G General] flipzmode:
Do you have a lot of contacts? On my Evo I have my personal gmail which only has a few hundred. On my Hero I have my developer account linked up which has thousands. During sync it isn't uncommon to see:

SyncManager(): canceling and rescheduling sync because it ran too long.

It will do this over and over and over again non-stop until it finally goes through. Secondly as was already mentioned is something like Facebook/Twitter/Friendstream. I personally only have twitter setup (and I use the official Twitter app for that) but again while testing on the Hero I found that the way Friendstream (and possibly facebook overall, and peep too but I'm not sure) gets updates is it checks the current status on EVERY SINGLE contact of yours. This of course is a huge battery drain.

The reason that I make the comparison with the Hero by the way is the software is basically identical. They are definitely forked off the same branch at HTC. So any problems on the Hero are likely the same on the Evo. The reason I don't have answers for you from the Evo side is because I use it as my personal phone and I don't have much on it. :)

You may also want to see this post: http://geekfor.me/faq/you-shouldnt-be-using-a-task-killer-with-android/

There is a chance that your phone keeps killing off background processes while they are trying to do stuff, so then they turn around and run again, then get killed again, and again. Automated task killers are the devil. :-P The only way I recommend using a task killer is the same way you would use task manager or top in linux. Just to kill off the random zombie process that may be causing you issues.
[EVO 4G General] ejittles:
Flipz,

First of all thanks for the great work on Fresh Evo. Secondly, I only use ATK at startup to kill any processes that are set to start on boot that I don't care about. It's not set to autokill or to start automatically. I kill ATK when I kill everything else.

I think it has to be friendstream because I only have a handful of facebook contacts and the other phone has over 300 facebook contacts to deal with. Thanks for pointing me in this direction. I'll have facebook turned off on that phone and see if that makes the difference.

That particular phone is only set to receive email via exchange while mine syncs all of my work stuff via exchange so I don't think that is the problem. That just makes me suspect friendstream even more.

*EDIT* Also, I hope that ATK sends a sigterm to these processes and not a sigkill? Or is that not an option w/ the VM? I'm not too familiar with the internals on android atm. Haven't had time to play with anything due to work. :(
[EVO 4G General] flipzmode:
Do yourself a favor and go grab Autostarts (autostarts not autostart) from the market instead. It will be the best $0.85 you've ever spent on an app. It lets you control every single onEvent trigger in Android, preventing the applications from starting in the first place.
[EVO 4G General] ejittles:
haha did you do that conversion for me from EUR to $ or is there a way to set a currency in the market app? Downloading it now. Thank you sir! The Evo has a great community here on XDA and I look forward to contributing when things settle down at work in the next few months.
[EVO 4G General] flipzmode:
I'm just smart. :-P haha j/p. When you actually click on buy in the app it will show you the USD price. That's where I grabbed it from. I did buy it for my Hero over 6 months ago just so I could deconstruct it though and I knew it was under $1. lol
[EVO 4G General] ejittles:
Fresh 0.5.3 and the disabling of friendstream has the second phone performing great. Battery lasts 24+ hours now. I suspect it was friendstream. Thanks for the help.
[EVO 4G General] _MetalHead_:
