[EVO 4G Android Development] :
I was running Netarchy's Kernel with the most recent version of Fresh with sluggish results and needing to plug in my phone right when I got home from work. I switched yesterday afternoon to the newest Baked Kernel #5 (Battery) and can say without a shadow of a doubt that I have much better battery life. I'm getting ready to hit the sack and I have over 35% left on my battery and I have used my phone the same amount as I have in the past. Plus the sluggishness that I felt on Netarchy's Kernel is no longer there. For me, it's a no brainer, Fresh ROM + Baked #5 = EVO VICTORY! I'm extremely happy today.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Biofall:
Did you ignore everything below that line you quoted??

And it doesn't matter if you buy it or not, it's a well known fact... Ask any dev, ROM chef, or kernel guy. Froyo ROMs just aren't battery optimized. Sorry to burst your bubble, but the big fixes are what I just posted
[EVO 4G Android Development] wfrandy:
I switched to baked #5 too, but my experience has been different. It is noticeably smoother running than Netarchy's 4.1.8 kernel that I had been running for the previous few days, but my battery life is significantly less on the baked #5 (battery) kernel. I think I will be going back to the Netarchy 4.0.2 kernel tomorrow. So far, it has been the smoothest running, with the best battery life for me.

I have a quick question maybe one of u guys can help me out with. I hate the HTC browser. Is their someway to replace it? I've tried ripping it from /system/app with a stock Rom via adb but it doesn't seem to work when pushed to the phone.....any suggestions?
[EVO 4G Android Development] thecodemonk:
You should just be able to install a different browser from the market...it should set itself as the default browser. You don't have to remove the old browser to do that (like you don't have to remove internet explorer to use firefox or chrome)

I installed this the day 3.1.0.1 was released and I was losing 10%/hr, unacceptable. I went back to Fresh 1.0.1 and played around with this on the side for a few weeks. I think I've finally got my battery to an acceptable level, I was getting 15-18hrs of moderate use out of 2.1 and I'm getting 10-12 out of this. The battery life with this rom is definitely worse than any of the 2.1 roms I've used.

Wipe everything and then flash 3.0.0.4. Then the radio, and then wimax.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cctaylor410:
I have not had one issue. Market works, all apps show and everything syncs. I have Amon recovery and do all three wipes twice just to be safe. Although the user interface hasnt changed from 2.1 to 2.2, it is alot smoother and plays videos from online sites that it didnt before (at least for me) for example Vimeo now works. Also there are a few more settings available to tweek it seems. Installing fresh 3.1 at the moment!!! :D

Gmail not working after Fresh Evo 3.0.04 update?

I just finished flashing the Fresh Evo 3.0.0.4 Rom and the Radio.

All seems fine with the exception of Gmail. When ever I run gmail, it doesn't even open up, it flashes the screen and nothing.

However, when I was running Fresh Evo 1.0.0 I was running K-9 email, after the Fresh Evo update 3.0.0.4, k-9 email still works but no gmail account is available nor does it sync my contacts, I can't even get gmail to run.

Any ideas, tips?

I did do a data wipe and a Dalvik wipe during the upgrade process...
[EVO 4G Android Development] plmiller0905:
I use both Juice defender and SetCpu. I have juice Defender setup around my work schedule. If I', working I feel that I don't need for all that data when I can't use any of it anyway. The phone does check my email etc. once every 15 minutes.

I'm also using Baked Kernel #5

My setup is below:

Gmail not syncing

UPDATE: "It was the lug nut....fixed it." The lug nut in this case being force stopping gmail and reloading it. Should have thought of that first!

Hey guys,

I've been using Fresh 3.1.0.2 as my primary rom since it came out. I was playing around with some other Roms yesterday and did a full wipe when I went back to Fresh. Now my gmail won't sync. On the receiving side it works fine, but if I delete an email on the phone it doesn't delete anywhere else and often times the inbox will still show as having an unread email when I've already deleted it.

I did not touch ANYTHING with the gmail settings, or sync settings. Anyone have any idea what's up? I googled and saw some people having issues with additional accounts after the Froyo update, but I'm just talking about my main account.

Thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] vide infra:
Did anyone do the pandora fix? does it mess with the video camera like on baked snack?
[EVO 4G Android Development] leeoniya:
This, and this alone solved everything. Not a custom kernel. Not sync/update frequency settings. Not Juicedefender. Not screen brightness / timeouts.

Before yesterday, I always had GPS/4G/Bluetooth OFF when not in use to conserve battery. I used wifi at work only because i noticed when i had a very weak signal being on WiFi + CDMA-only improved my batt life. I was using SetCPU, tried every kernel, tweaks, task killers. All of them made minimal differences.

2 nights ago i discovered HTC had a widget to disable 3G radio/mobile network. So i added it to my screen and killed it while charging my phone at night. Woke up 8:30am yesterday morning and unplugged phone and it rapidly dropped from 100% to 96% in about 10 mins, as usual - which is fine. The only radio i had on was Wifi.

I did not use the phone much during work, as usual. Typically i would have 40% left after 9 hours at work w/wifi.

It has now been 28 hours since i unplugged it and i'm still at 40%....all because i disabled my 3G radio.

So it was NOT an app because i still had full data connection at work through wifi all day. had an app been draining the battery, it would have drained it just the same through Wifi as 3G.

Tweaking apps does help, but it is minimal. 3G radio was huge, it made all the difference.

here's what i'm running:

----------------------

Fresh Evo 3.1.0.2

Kernel: KiNgxKernel #6/BFS...etc

PRI: 1.40_003

Radio: 2.15.00.07.28

WiMax ver: 26023_r01

Network Type: CDMA Only

Screen: Fixed brightness (50%)

SetCPU: 245/998 (conservative) profiles OFF

"Enable always-on mobile data": OFF

All other data roaming settings are ON

Disabled gTalk auto-sign-in. (maybe will re-enable now that i found what the real problem was)

Addons: Smooth Sense icons, Vanilla Lock

All radios are off most of the time. I have wifi on whenever i can connect to it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SilentSummer:
If you disable your data/3g then you get no syncs or anything. Whats the point of having a phone then?

BTW I get great battery life with leaving data/wifi on 24/7.
[EVO 4G Android Development] leeoniya:
please qualify "great" as everything is relative - i'm currently at 39% after 30 hours, 20 of which have been wifi-connected.

far from everyone needs to have everything live all the time. if i'm expecting something urgent, then yes, i will enable it. otherwise i prefer having 50+ hours standby on my phone instead of the ability to "first" every email/blogpost/tweet i'm subscribed to - it's just not necessary for me.

email i can sync manually when i feel like it. it's not a big deal to press 2 buttons for GPS/internet/maps/yelp/email. i'm at a computer most of the workweek. mobile data takes 1 second to enable, literally - not like wifi.

in fact..if there is something i can script in android. i can auto-enable my 3g once every hour for 2 minutes to sync everything. win-win.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SilentSummer:
Great is that I can still have 50% left after 12 hours of usage with moderate use.

I don't "tweet/blog" etc to begin with. I do need to receive however my work email as well as my personal email.

Why someone would need 50+ hours of battery life on a day to day bases is beyond me unless you are out of town/camping, etc. It's great that you can, but a bit pointless unless you don't have a plugin where you sleep every night.

I can also use Tasker to disable data and have it turn on every 15 minutes if I wanted to (or whatever interval).

Personally it doesn't make much sense to me when people get excellent smart phones and then dumb it down to a dumb phone just to get crazy amount of battery life. If you can make it through one day with a charge your good to go.
[EVO 4G Android Development] leeoniya:
i agree that 50+ is overkill. but there are times when i dont want to be bothered with finding/carrying around a charger if i have to spend a night at a friend's after going out the night before and having taken a train into the city. for me 24 hours is not always enough, though usually it is. 36hrs tends to be the sweet spot. i hate frantically disabling features because my batt is about to die after a full day of just standby and i realize i have something unaccounted for after it's too late.

if the screen is on, it makes sense to have 3G. if it is off, there is no point for cpu above 245mhz or any radios enabled unless you're streaming internet content or have it plugged in.

there's always a happy medium between the extremes. having 3g on during idle is near pointless unless you're expecting urgent email...and for anything SO urgent, the person will just text/call you anyways which needs no 3g.

the most i have ever gotten out of it in the past with 3g/cdma only was 32 hours when it had stock 2.1 w/unrevoked + setpu.

i'm not sure if the new PRI or new radios caused this new batt drain. but i have ruled out apps and Froyo, switching off 3g would have never fixed the issue like it has if those were the cause.
[EVO 4G Android Development] T Mac:
6 hours 54 minutes uptime and 2 hours 29 awake time. Half a dozen emails, five minute 24 second phone call, gmail sync, facebook every 4 hours, twitter every 2 hours, screen on bright with time on 16 minutes. I would consider this light usage. Mobile network is on, gps, bluetooth, wifi are all off, cdma/roaming networks on auto. I am averaging 3.4% drop per hour right now. This morning after my phone call and before I had touched my phone again, I checked and was at 2.8%drop per hour. I am running Kings #6 kernel with factory settings. I also removed setcpu totally as I feel that the kernel does the work and I don't overclock anyways. At the latter average I should get around 29.35 hours of usage out of this charge. I don't expect this to happen since after work hours my phone usage increases exponentially. But if I can pull my phone off the charger at 7:30am and put it on the charger at 11:00pm with some life left, then I'm for the most part happy. I would like to get more out of it just in case I have a heavy usage day (which can happen easily with this phone as I'm trying to get my extra $10/month worth LOL). Oh, Im also using the fancy widget clock/weather which syncs every 3 hours.
[EVO 4G Android Development] leeoniya:
3.5/hr is the upper limit of what i would consider good. my target is <=3/hr overall. with 3g off, the drain is <= 1%/hr. the wifi radio drain (when connected) is negligible from my experience, and slightly noticeable when not connected/scanning.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tlxxxsracer:
So far whats the best kernal to be running with 3.1.0.2? Im running netarchy 4.0.3. How are the new netarchies? And what ones would you guys recommend using instead?
[EVO 4G Android Development] T Mac:
I'm running Kings BFS#6 and it is great so far. Netarchy still has HAVS listed as in beta testing so I figured since Kings has been using this with good luck so far I would stick with his kernels for now. All is well.
[EVO 4G Android Development] freeza:
Does King's kernel support Apps2SD?
[EVO 4G Android Development] T Mac:
I don't use apps2sd....much. I mean, I have app 2 SD (the app) installed on my phone, and I have moved some apps from the phone to the SD this way, but I don't know crap about it other than that. So...I suppose it does support it. It doesn't seem like much of a benefit to me. It usually causes problems. Ecspecially with pandora and a couple of other apps. When the phone restarts it seems to cause my widgets to have problems loading an such. I moved them back to the phone.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Biofall:
I have 135 apps, so I use apps2sd.

Just noticed bit of trouble with Bluetooth, when I get my headset connected and I listen to music etc and I get a call the music will just cut off but there will be no ringtone at all. I'm able to answer the call with the BT buttons but I can not hear anything and the other party can't hear me at all.

When I drop the call music will resume back no problem.

I saw BT issues mentioned in various kernel threads so i tried few versions from King and Natarchy with same results.

Any ideas?
[EVO 4G Android Development] d0m1n0:
I have a small issue with BT, but not as much like that. I sync my BT to my car's handsfree system and it pairs just fine. Next time I go into my car, it won't pair unless the BT was on before I start up the car. If I turn BT on after the car is started, I have to start the pairing procedure all over again, which I can't do unless the car is in park, so that's a PITA if I'm on the highway and want to make a call on BT. - using stock kernel with fresh 3.1.0.2

Quick question for you folks, right now I'm using the stock Kernel that came with Fresh. If I load another kernel (ie Baked #5) and want to go back to stock, will a nand restore bring it back to the normal kernel (granted I did a nand restore w/ stock fresh working)

Thanks

ive had the radios patched since they came out... so... i dunno if that changes anything
[EVO 4G Android Development] v1pe:
if you already have the latest radio's from geekfor.me and you are still getting a bootloop, I would suggest re-flashing the rom.

make sure you wipe data/cache/dalvik as well.
[EVO 4G Android Development] v1pe:
also, it can't hurt to flash the radio's again just in case, since you can't get into your settings and double check that you have the latest...

edit: howeer im on the fresh evo screen now, this should take a lil while first boot right?

correct, the first boot takes some time, and I'm pretty sure that there is one reboot on the first boot also, so don't fret if you see it reboot once

Shortcut/Widget issue

I tried this question in the Q&A forum but got nothing so I figured I would give it a shot here.

I have Fresh 3.1.0.2 running and kernel #5. Works great except for one problem. I get multiple widget/shortcuts on top of each other. For example, I have power control on the main home screen. If I long press on the widget to trash it, I see another one right under the first. Sometimes I have to do this 6 times to get down to only one running.

Any idea why this is happening? It can cause some thing to not work right so I would like to find a resolution if I can.

Thanks,

Steve
