[EVO 4G Android Development] MSmith1:
I'm getting flashbacks. Anyone around here remember when I was The King of complaining about CM6 battery life and everyone was telling me that I was doing something wrong? Now it's the other way around. Crazy.

You really have to find out what is chewing your battery app by app. I have had so many apps chew my battery without even a trace of them running including Skype, Pure Calender widget, GTasks, etc. Also, it could be bluetooth which seems to be problematic. Or, it could be GPS constantly searching, etc. etc. There are a lot of things.

And for everyone saying, this doesn't happen on a Sense rom, CM6 is not a Sense rom so there is really no comparing them. It is apples and oranges. And, I don't mean this in any offensive way but, if you aren't getting what you want out of CM6 and you are getting better results with a Sense rom, use a Sense rom. It really doesn't make sense (ha) to use something that doesn't work for you no matter how sexy CM6 may sound. CM6 is really not a flash and go rom, you have to nurture it and I understand that a lot of people don't have the time to do that, so really, use a sense rom, or even, use a senseless rom based on sense. Again, I'm not trying to be a **** here. CM6 frustrated the hell out of me a while back and I went back to a senseless sense rom until I felt that I could come back and work it out.

LOL ..back when 8 hours was a lot ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] posguy99:
I don't see the problem. All that says is that for 93% of the last 10 minutes and 13 seconds, the Dialer was consuming battery (really means that it was an active application consuming CPU cycles). Ten minutes is nothing. Now, if you were looking at 93% of the last six hours or something, I'd think you had a partial-wake problem.

Saying the Dialer is consuming 93% of the battery is nonsensical, unless you're going to claim that in the 10 minutes and 13 seconds since you unplugged the phone, the battery charge has gone down 93%.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MSmith1:

Ford Sync issue

Is anyone having any strange issues using Cyanogen with Ford Sync?

Calls work great, but whenever I try to use Sync Services for traffic or directions (anything where it needs to determine the vehicle's location), it just makes some strange noises and ends the call without downloading directions or giving me traffic information.

Has anyone else experienced this?
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
haha yea man!.. crazy nights ;)

speaking of battery life, i did a test, pulled 16 hours with moderate (2 hrs screen on) with stock cm6-final. with snap 7.5-925, 12 hours with heavy usage (~3 hrs screen on). crazy how far we've come :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] thebryanexperience:
So, I've been using cm6 on my evo since the first nightly and now that I flashed rc1 my kickstand wont work. I tried to wipe everything. Really flashed but it just wont work. I can see it on the back but it wont open. Can some one help me with this problem?

This is an amazing rom. Battery is much improved over the last few nightlys. Thanks and can't wait for 4g

You really didn't think I was serious about the kickstand right?

I've read that you shouldn't rely on the actual bars BC on a sense ROM, the bars are just eye-candy I guess you should say.
[EVO 4G Android Development] silverwolf897:
Quick ?

First off, great job on the Rom. It runs awesomly.

My one question is:

Does anyone know where the "sms_outgoing_check_max_count" db record got moved to (in froyo vs eclair) or what replaced it?

Or is there even a limit imposed on the # of outbound sms in froyo?

thanks

What about a speed test? Does it know I'm running froyo without sense? Lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] xeren:
Is anyone getting anything like I am in the attached image? Battery usage is showing that my display makes up 73% of total.

I know I haven't had my screen on that much.

Could this be related to the bad battery life, or just a separate, coincidental software error?
[EVO 4G Android Development] unknown_owner:
I know the answer to the bars issue: After the Apple adjusted the way barcodes are seen on the iphone, HTC decided to make the same change in Froyo, so your bars are more accurately displayed with Froyo. :)

Anyway, is there an app that can show the signal db? Maybe people can compare the signal when they flash eclair and then in froyo.

Is anyone else missing the wireless icon when they turn on wifi?
[EVO 4G Android Development] pastert33:
ahhh well can't speak about a speed test.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MagnusRagnarok:
ive been following and i didnt see anyone notice this. i was looking at signal strength in my cyanogenmod settings readout, since my battery life is not the greatest, but in the actual settings its good. heres what i see

cyanogenmod status bar readout = -99

settings/about phone/status = -51

anyone else notice this issue. i have the newest radio and wimax also. im wondering which is right, thats all. thanks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jayv1717:
that may be true but since..i can't get past 500kb down..i think their is something wrong cause my speed sucks
[EVO 4G Android Development] craigbailey1986:
Yes I think its called signal and it shows Evdo and cdma signal
[EVO 4G Android Development] vbyt:
You can find your sleep time, go to spare parts, battery history, other usage/since last unplugged.

"Running"(click on it)=time not sleeping. subtract your "running time" from your time since unplugged and you got your sleep time.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vbyt:
So if Running % isn't 100%, then it is sleeping.
[EVO 4G Android Development] unknown_owner:
Just did a full wipe and will flash again to see if the bars come out any diff't. Before, I just flashed the RC1 over the nightly.

[EVO 4G Android Development] craigbailey1986:
No disrespect but you must be an idiot... obviously you must not know that if you have bad signal it will cause significant battery drainage. He was getting over 8 hours of battery with being in a building wit virtually no reception. Most 2.1 ROMs average about the same unless under clocked.

Though your stance is this ROM has bad battery maybe you should do some research and then speak on it. I am at 52% at 10:12:38 since last unplugged with moderate usage, texts, on xda over 3hours, web, and calls
[EVO 4G Android Development] mrfuzzie23:
those complaining about 1 bar of signal in this rom and 3-4 bars in other roms just remember....in this rom the signal is shown in 4 bars total where as other roms show with 6 bars total...so ur 1 bar in froyo could be equivalent to more than 1 bar in other roms cuz those roms use 6 bars and this one only uses 4...
[EVO 4G Android Development] splink7007:
I second this.

Edit: my upload seems the same but dl is half of what I used to get. Ul is twice as high as dl. That should never be the case.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jayv1717:
good point but it doesnt explain the turtle speeds i'am getting
[EVO 4G Android Development] MSmith1:
As crazy as this may sound, I got over 24 hours since unplugged and 6 hours screen on time with the STOCK battery. You know how? Wall charger. Makes a huge difference. If there is one thing that I have learned about the Evo, as I said before and I'll say it again, it can't charge a battery properly. You won't believe the battery life that you can get by charging the battery properly.

Cycling two batteries in and out of a wall charger is the single greatest suggestion that I can make to anyone that has an Evo. It will change your perspective on the meaning of life and things of that nature.
[EVO 4G Android Development] khaag27:
So I have wiped everything and reflashed. I wiped my battery stats as well. What should I have my setcpu at? I am on the stock kernal as well if that helps.

You know me, I refuse to gimp my phone in any way, shape, or form. That is without JD, any SetCPU profiles, or any data gimping. Full use of the phone two gmail accounts, twitter, youtube use, talk on 24-7, etc. Full smartphone the way the Evo was meant to be used.

[EVO 4G Android Development] MSmith1:
Kill your battery in the phone. Charge to 100 in the charger. Cycle your batteries in and out doing the same thing. By the second/third charge on the battery you should be achieving heavyweight status life. Trust.

Well I was having issues with my Evo as far as battery time and all, most I got out moderate use was 15hrs Live wallpaper, live wallpaper Heavy use I can pull around 10hrs. Now for me I dont spend all day on a phone, I have other thing to do in life. But I reinstall CM6 and stuck with my fixed wallpaper I was say moderate to Heavy this time because I was agruing on twitter and Faceboot for hours with cousins and what not I did use GPS and 4G for a short time to get me to the Post office because I was lost in this new area of town. Surfed the internet and love watching Youtube or flash videos I got it down about 8%. Sorry pic is small, but it says 1day 2hrs.. I did not get that sort of time on the stock Rom In my opinion. I did not even Charge the Phone when I went to bed with 25% battery left. 6hrs later I wake up and it has exacly 25% left. IM happy lol

1 day 2 hours 26 hours in all

[EVO 4G Android Development] martyzidek:
So today had nothing but problems today with phone. Txts were not sending, reboots, and worse reception. I tried to update the Winmax which couldn't find which one I had so did what's been told is the newest. Also did the radio which my numbers didn't match so I updated. I did data and delvich wipe. Reported and got stuck on the screen of death till hooked up to computer and reported fine. All good right now but I'm back on the rooted froyo.

So you can't send a txt if over 160 which since the stock sms doesn't have a count I go over and stays on sending. Can't send another txt till about 5 min it says it can't send. Is there a way to get the 2.2 froyo sms onto cm6? If not this is a killer for me and will try other roms.

weirdest thing, I was talking on my BT and then I had a reset, but it wasn't a full reset. It just went to the circle CM6 screen then back up. After that, I reconnected and after about 10 seconds, it reset again and wouldn't get past the Evo screen. That a long with not being able to figure out the battery problems as of yet, I tried to nand backup, but it said something like I needed to push it through ADB. So, I just flashed BS for now, since I couldn't get back to my CM6. Ahhh!!!! I love CM6 so much, but oh well for now anyway.

I went into my SD card with Astro and noticed A LOT of stuff was missing, but all the important things were still there. 90% of my apps are installed on my SD card, and those are all there.

So, my experience: I was on non-rooted stock OTA since I got the EVO on launch day. Never really had a problem with it until the Froyo update that messed up streaming audio quality. It frustrated me enough that as soon as a root method for 2.2 came out I did it and flashed CM6. It fixed the sound problem (since it used latest code), and felt nice and fast. Today I flashed Fresh 3.2 so I could check out the new unreleased OTA/HTC kernel, and it actually feels a bit slow! I don't know if it's a combination of actually being slower or being capped at 30 FPS or what, but it feels laggier compared to CM6. Is this just my imagination or is this what most people experience? If there's in fact a real speed difference, it's really disappointing that the manufacturers can't put that out themselves, but it's great that ROMs like CM6 exist. Now I have to test battery life and choose between that + Sense theme (which I do like) or speedier UI and 50+ FPS with CM6.
