You might try running without juice defender, some people have had battery life without it. Do you have setcpu running? If yes, then maybe try running without that. I've read that the most recent version of facebook was causing too much partial wake time, so maybe you could roll back to an earlier version. For me, Tango and Touchdown were pretty big battery hogs, too.
[EVO 4G Android Development] TURDxSANDWICH:
Has anyone used the stock kernal with Myn's battery fix? I was getting great battery life using that kernal with a different ROM.

I'm trying to see if I can live without 4G thinking that eventually a CM ROM will be the fastest way to gingerbread on an EVO. But I am also having some battery issues, so its making me wonder if its worth it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Shane112358:
I was using JuiceDefender before and it worked well. Was getting about 1.8x. Now I'm at 1.1x for some reason. I have SetCPU running but it's not overclocking.

I checked partial wake time and "Email" is #1 taking up almost double of Android System. Could this be the culprit?
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
uhm YEA!.. what are you doing with email? have an exchange account synced or anything?
[EVO 4G Android Development] oddlou:
It's possible that jd works better with some kernals than others. Try going without it for a while.

Even if you're not overclocking, setcpu may use more battery than the test kernal, depending on your setup. I'd try running without it and/or tweaking the governor to see if that helps.

How often are you syncing your mail? Sometimes scheduled pulls are less battery efficient than using the push functionality. I have two accounts (exchange and gmail) both pulling, and I find that's better for me than scheduled pulls.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Shane112358:
Yeah, exchange, same account I was using on Stock. Went in and it was set as a refresh interval of Automatic (push). Push email is supposed to be best for battery but I tried setting it to 15 minutes and I'll see what happens....

on the DIALER ONE app

how, when im looking at my contacts/call log etc, do i get the symbol to text someone without having to go into the contact itself?

i cant figure it out for the life of me and before i went stock to update then back to cm6.1 rc1......i cant find the setting :confused:

its very annoying to want to send out a text and having to go into the contact then clicking the message icon
[EVO 4G Android Development] DraginMagik:
... have you tried doing a 'long press' on the contacts name from the call log or favorites screen? it won't give you a symbol, but it does give the option to SMS them (plus a couple other options)
[EVO 4G Android Development] fmedina2:
I am having a problem with toast's .35 kernel. After about 4 hours, for some reason it gets a bit laggy, especially with the scrolling. It also cant go past 33 fps on the fps2d app and it is very noticeable when scrolling through the home screens. Has anyone else encountered this? A reboot gets rid of it but thats sort of a pain in the ass, especially since it just comes back. Normally I get 52 fps.

Anyone know where I can get the stock kernel until the new kernels come out?
[EVO 4G Android Development] paranoid android85:
the stock kernel comes with the cm6.1 rom. just dont flash the toast .35 kernel. people have been liking zendroid kernel...doesnt work with me though
[EVO 4G Android Development] DraginMagik:
zendroid put out a new version today. .4 w/ a CFS and BFS option
[EVO 4G Android Development] paranoid android85:
cool. have you tried it yet?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Shinzul:
Just re-flash CM6.1 (don't wipe) and you'll be on the stock kernel.
[EVO 4G Android Development] DraginMagik:
... yup. loaded it up a few hours ago. so far i like the zendroid kernel.
[EVO 4G Android Development] fmedina2:
Yeah but I will lose things like my splash screen, boot animation, sprint banner changes, keyboard theme, etc... It would be a pain to have to do that all again.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Bizdady:
Do you have a nandroid backup of the rom before you flashed the new kernel so you can just flash back?
[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
Splashes are not flashed with roms. They need to be done through fastboot. So at least that one you wont lose.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xhazyx:
There's some splashes that are flashable thru recovery....

AOSP Supersonic
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
can you elaborate? apart from fastboot, i know only of flashing them via s-off bootloader.
[EVO 4G Android Development] HiTekRawkus:
I'm wondering of anyone else is experiencing this...I can't go into the bootloader by holding volume up and power, only through the restart menu. When I try using the power button the phone just vibrated 3 times and I had to pull the barry to turn it on. Nightlies 153 and 158
[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
If you mean through a PC36 yeah, but thats done through hboot, not recovery.

gapps download issue

well I've been having issues for awhile now where the default link for gapps isn't working which is making it hard to install via rom manager. so I did it manually but I have to say the location of the gapps download isn't very obvious. So I was thinking it might be good to add a link to the gapps download in the op. Also it would be great if the link could be fixed so I don't have to do this every time I install a newer nightly. Thanks in advance and I'm sorry if this has been covered already.

and for anyone having trouble finding gapps http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Latest_Version#Google_Apps

sync

im running 6.1 rc1...anyone having troubles with the calendar syncing? i am using google calendars with the contact birthdays calendar but when i update a birthday it shows up on my computer but it sits there on my phone with the sync icon about 90% of the time and doesnt do anything. any ideas?
[EVO 4G Android Development] k4p741nkrunch:
Very simple, you have to hold volume DOWN and the power button. I'm not sure of the intention of the three vibrations when you hold UP instead, but I know you have to pull the battery after doing it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] loveact:
i'm using nightlies build 159 and the battery draining really really fast

so i flashed zen's 0.4 bfs kernel. it was great,but when i reboot the device,it's got stuck at evo's white screen.

so i went back again to 159 nightlies stock kernel again.

is there any recommendation of kernel with great battery life? and where can i get it?

much appreciated :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] jgalan14:
Check on settings/accounts to make sure calendar is syncing ... sometimes that happened to me in the past
[EVO 4G Android Development] skyheli:
The vibrations from holding UP button started for me after using S-OFF from Unrevoked. Its supposed to be some kind of Qualcomm diagnostics.

[EVO 4G Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
In the actual calendar app, is the "Contact's birthdays and events" calendar synced and visible? It differs from the regular google calendar. If not, certain widgets have the option to hide all-day events in their settings; make sure that is not checked either.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Askym:
yes its visible...but it looks like it only synced once (when i imported my contacts) ive tried a few tests to see if it did anything after importing. everything looks like its there but when i change a birthday on google there is no change on the calendar but it synced with the contacts and the birthday listed on the contact changed. i try to add birthdays but they dont show up on the calendar. if i add the birthday on the regular calendar it shows up....i dont get it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] noob_2010:
Oh my sweetlord, where is the Android Market app at?(coming from Sprint lovers rom) I notice the Froyo interface instead of HTC sense's. I'm trying to install apps and nothing is working with file manager which came with it......I need the market app.............

Did you flash the Gapps .zip after flashing the rom?
[EVO 4G Android Development] noob_2010:
No. Install on my SDCARD then go into recovery and install from sdcard and click it?

The only cusstom rom I ever installed was the sprint lovers rom. so I'm kinda dummy with this

Update: and where is the gapp.zip file at??? It should be a rom download link and the extras to download link all in one, I had to go to another link to download the cm6.1 rom...
[EVO 4G Android Development] icm714:
no you flash in the recovery menu

so reboot in to recovery and find zip on sd card

flash it and should boot up fine ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] noob_2010:
Gotcha. That link provided shows like 15 GAPP.zip file, looks like they are just old versions so I went with the October 24 version so I'll see what this does after flashing

Best kernel until new snap is out?

Hi guys,

Lots of opinions regarding this but just thought I'd ask for a fresh read. Until new snap is ready, what is best kernel to use with this? I am running nightly 160 and it seems pretty fast with just the stock kernel. Tried netarchy beta but was artifacting like mad.
[EVO 4G Android Development] atapia984:
AOSP Kernels only. Netarchy was designed for Sense ROMs. I am using the latest Zen.
[EVO 4G Android Development] wase4711:
stock kernel works the best, has the fastest quadrant scores, and, until snap is released, there is NO reason to use a different kernel than the stock one, IMO//
[EVO 4G Android Development] swaze:
That might be your case, but definately not mine. Running toast's .35 kernel, all my benchmarks are higher than stock and battery is definately better. Im getting 30+ hours each charge with medium usage.
[EVO 4G Android Development] imneo1:
did you try to clear the apo data or wipe cache ?

Sent from my N1 - Cyanogen 6.0.0
[EVO 4G Android Development] halorin:
Seconded. Yup.
[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
*technically* nets newer universals should work on aosp. I've tried a few of them, some without problems, some with tearing. They use any kernel so they extract and compile the kernel with your current ramdisk when flashing.
[EVO 4G Android Development] HiTekRawkus:
Ha, wow I feel like a dumbass. Thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] JasonK75:
I second this. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] thedarksavant:
With all the varying opinions it seems you can either just pick one and go with it or try the stock, toast's or ZenDroid and see which one works for you. If you don't want to mess around with trying kernels then stick with stock which seems to be working fine for a lot of people.

I'm having good luck so far with ZenDroid .4
[EVO 4G Android Development] noob_2010:
Ok this thing is giving me a headache. I can't get rootexplorer to work or esfile manager, or Supermanager(used this a lot while on Sprint lover's rom)

Like am I misssing something here since you no longer use HTC sense on this rom? I think it's a bad rootexplorer.apk file. Can someone give me a link to a good Rooting apk file with R/w unlocked so I can move apps to the SD card,etc

Note: I installed esfile explorer using the built in file manager. Then I open esfile explorer installed Rootexplorer on my SDcard then went to the app to run it and it says " the application root$%@(Process com.speedsoftware.rootexplorer) has stopped unexpectaly. Please try again.

So after that I went to esfile explorer and tried moving Rootexplorer.apk to the phone, so I copy and move but when i move it says "copy failed" R/W? for esfile explorer? where?

Update: I looked in options and checked 2 boxes. So then it lets me move the Root_exploxer.apk file to my phone. So then when I go to install it it says"application not installed" :(

Update2: well I have 2 rootexplorers on my sdcard(think one older and the other may be old too) so I select the other rootexplorer.apk on my sdcard and move to my phone, then install, it says installing this will replace my other version so I said ok....Then I click on Run and it gave me that Sorry rootexplorer has stopped unexpectedly message again.......

Edit: DOH! Kids "helping me"...dad what does that button do...
[EVO 4G Android Development] ISSMER:
Have you tried clearing cache in the app...and rebooting
[EVO 4G Android Development] noob_2010:
clear cache? in esfile explorer? well I just did that. The problem is getting Rootexplorer to work, I can't run it therefor I can't clear it's cache. but if you meant ESfile explorer than yes I just did it now but the problem isn't with esfile exploxer it's with rootexploxer.

Note: I never used either of these 2. I always ran Supermanager a version from 3 months ago. But even when using supermananager from the marketplace(free) it never show any of my files I have on my phone or sdcard.. urgggggggggg!
[EVO 4G Android Development] noob_2010:

[EVO 4G Android Development] ISSMER:
Assuming you have superuser installed...you might try titanium backup
[EVO 4G Android Development] Shack01:
Finally got to it... Unfortunately, the carrier I'm leased to has problems keeping track of it's empty trailers... :rolleyes:

Before I wiped, I started by uninstalling all external apps so that I'd have as clean an install as possible. Then I wiped data, cache, and dalvik and then powered down. (Don't know if the power down did anything useful, but it only cost a couple minutes.) I repeated this 4 times. Then I installed JUST CM6.1 RC and configured it. SUCCESS - at least so far! I travelled about 4.5 hours today, from Indianapolis, to just east of Lansing and it didn't reboot once! :) Now I'm going to slowly add apps back in and see what happens. Maybe it was something in the background conflicting with Navigator that was causing the reboots... Oh well, I guess I'll find out!
[EVO 4G Android Development] noob_2010:
ES file explorer works. It's just those 2 rootexploxer files are crappy I guess. I tried other APK files and they installed on my phone using ES file explorer to move them. so Thanks

Turning off the 3d app drawer worked great. Thanks!

Contact Manager won't sort by Last Names :(

Running the 160 nightly. Have noticed that ever since 6.1, Contact Manager won't sort by last name or list last name first.

Any ideas on the problem?

Also, when I try to adjust sound it settings, it crashes out.

Last problem - YouTube won't update from market.
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
last problem can be resolved by removing the youtube apk using root explorer or titanium backup & then after a reboot, go to the market like you normally would & install it.

& what do you mean by adjust sound in settings? explain in detail please.

& i just switched my contact settings to last name first & it immediately changed on both sort & view options...

you may need to explain the process you took to get where you are now, b/c these issues appear to be isolated to your environment.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
Re: Sound - If I go to Menu/Settings/Sound I get the following error message: "The application settings (process com.android.settings) has stopped unexpectedly..." Cannot make changes to sound settings.

[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
if you want any help, please provide the information i've requested.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
Hmm, not sure what else you want from me.

Am running CM Nightly 160 w/ Toastch .35 kernel. No other tweaks. The rest is as I mentioned.
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
ok, do sound settings crash without the toast .35 kernel? thats a pretty big piece of the puzzle you've left out until this point. what about contact settings? do they work without that kernel cuz they are working fine for me on stock kernel.

also the question i asked was HOW did you get to this point you're at now? did you just start on 160 from a completely different rom? i'm not going to pry for any more information, so please explain in detail how you got here if you are still having these issues running the stock kernel.

not trying to be short with you here(well sorta) but you do realize this kernel is in its very early stages & is not 100% compatible with this rom?

did you get youtube updated?

[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
which type of account do you click on after this? settings>accounts & sync>add account>

did you just flash this rom?
[EVO 4G Android Development] wojosama:
@mitchellvii - usually when you have a unique problem like this, it is usually isolated to your environment as drdrew said and therefore we need to know things like:

When you flashed the rom did you do a full wipe (data, cache and dalvik)?

Are you you using the stock kernel, and if not, what kernel are you using and did this occur on the stock kernel?

Did the problems you are having exist the entire time you've had the ROM flashed?

If not, when did they start?

This kind of information makes it easier to determine what has caused these issues.

Now then, did you happen to use titanium backup to restore settings and contacts and stuff? I believe i remember someone doing so and having the same problem with sound. You need to go into manage all applications and wipe data/cache on settings. Try the same with the contacts (i think there's 3 apps, wipe them all just in case), then resync them from google manually.

Side note: drdrew, thank you for defending me the other day, I honestly wasn't being rude to the guy that didn't want to accept snap was his problem.
