[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] OrionBG:
I'm using mattc Leo + Froyo w/Sense 1.5 that haves the 384MB RAM patch and it is not power hungry at all! I've been using it for 22 hours of which the device was awake 2:40 mins and I still have 42% Battery! The programs I use for for power/memory management are Set CPU and Task Manager (this is the name of the program! In Market the little green robot with a red "X")
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] lemonspeakers:
Using mattc's froyo 1.5. How do I even start up setCPU without having the application crash unexpectedly? It does this as soon as i press "ENABLE"
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] victorbd:
bro, if u dont use setcpu,as your are saying like 384mb ram enabled mattc1.5 or darkstone both is not power hungry batteryminder will show you a good 12 hrs left of standby.but it doesnot changes instantly.. after using setcpu and general profile to max 768000 it will show 22hrs after som time....if u r getting 22hrs its because setcpu... without that our SET got a very little lifespan maybe :P
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] victorbd:
hav not got this problem... y dont give darkstones a try...??
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] OrionBG:
I haven't limit the CPU to 768MHz! On the contrary! I've configured SetCPU to higher the frequency even on 50% load!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] victorbd:
i saw windows gives more battery life than android... far more better.. dont know why :S
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] makomek:
You know why? cause it's still in development and these builds are Beta.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] spimonkey34:
Did you upgrade from 1.4? That can cause some app issues. It is best to remove setCPU and reinstall it (you won't have to pay for it again).
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] fi3ry_icy:
i titanium restored setcpu and i got the same problem..

uninstall and reinstall it from apk file instead of titanium restore solved the problem..

in ur pic attachments, all the settings are at 50 priority..

how does this "priority" work in android compared to windows os? im not sure how it works in setcpu since the priority is allocated to settings and not process threads unlike in windows OS..
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] SiL3nTKiLL:
thats good batt life man!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dlotters:
I've also set my max cpu setting to 768 (except when plugged in to usb/power) and it's made a huge difference to the battery drain with no real noticeable lag.

Mattc 1.5 here - also used it on 1.3a and 1.4.

SetCPU is amazing, glad I bought the paid version instead of downloading the freebie as the author definitely deserves it imo :D
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] moontashir:
Did eveything u said bro. But still get barely 7 hours. Intact clicked it down to 384hz max. Still poor life. Dunno. Love my phone but the battery life is really killing the experience.

OK, that's what I get on my device:

twice push mail, Gmail via Exchange and Hotmail, some surfin' the net, one call, battery dropped 10% per hour...

thats not bad compared to the 8 i used to get
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] victorbd:
use radio 2.14.xxx instead of 2.15.xxx for better battery... :D
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] SkywalkerPD:

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Thunderer64:
SetCPU not working for me, I have changed the max settings to 768 and set-up the profiles as per the screenshots, but it is still running up to 998Mhz :confused::confused::confused::confused:

EDIT:

OK - I have now done a RTFM and it would seem that Perflock is activated. Have tried to deactivate Perflock and it says "Perflock appears to be disabled" - but it is still acting as if Perflock is activated. Has anyone else come across this issuew ith this ROM/Kernal?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] CrazyTurk42:
thnx for the guide! I just made the freq to 768000 and no profiles. Advanced task killer is configured like yours.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] CrazyTurk42:
Ok i woke up and here are my results.

Well it stays longer then last time. Big test is how it will surivive today :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Reno_79:
I use my phone pretty heavily: I send approximately 150-200 emails every day, lots of 3G/wifi use, about 2hours of music/day, at least 2 hours of calls/day as well, about an hour of gaming a day, and I only get to about 60% battery by the time I go to bed. I don't use SetCPU or ATK or any other task-killer. Haven't had to for a long time.

The most important part of getting your battery to last longer is calibrating it properly when you install a new build. There's a very good thread on it on here that tells you exactly how you should do it, and you should easily get two days life out of your phones with it.

The open screen design kinda defeats the purpose. Yes, these tend to be big and ugly, but you can hit it like a baseball.

they are okay for all protection, except shocks like drop to a concrete floor or something, the screen will still break

[Android Apps and Games] obones:
Hello,

I'm currently evaluating Setting Profiles and I would like to do this:

When in the car dock, turn on GPS and Mobile data, lock orientation to landscape, force speaker for calls and disable screen timeout.

So far I have created a profile with this selected :

SpeakerPhone on

Orientation off

GPS on

Screen timeout 0

and a rule for "when in car dock"

I can live with the fact that i locks orientation instead of forcing it to landscape.

But I can't seem to find a way to turn on mobile data. I can turn wifi on, but that's not what I want, I want to turn on mobile data.

Is this at all possible?

Regards

Olivier

I was searching all over the place for this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THANKS!!!!!!

Is it possible to include another zip that does the bottom bar only? I want to mix this with the minimalist theme by ultralinx.

Not working on the official Froyo sense 1.0c by adamG btw. HTC Widgets go haywire.
[Desire Themes and Apps] DomFel:
Awesome theme! What if I'd like to include Desire's Super Circle Battery mod?!? Would it break Sense??
[Desire Themes and Apps] UltraLinx:
This has already been ported over,

[Desire Themes and Apps] SiL3nTKiLL:

[Desire Themes and Apps] dancedreamfly:
Rambo87: Will upload bottom bar zip in a while. BTW, it won't work on ROMs based on the leaked HK CSL ROMs (Official FroYo HTC Sense by AdamG being one of them).

DomFel: You could apply the circle battery mod, but you'd lose the notification bar you see here.

UltraLinx: I see you've ported it, I even helped you make the flashable zip, but I wanted the patched Rosie instead of using Launcher Pro. I believe your port makes use of Launcher Pro.

SiL3nTKiLL: Thank you very much.
[Desire Themes and Apps] DomFel:
Thanks a lot!

BTW, simply awesome!
[Desire Themes and Apps] dancedreamfly:

[Desire Themes and Apps] Rambo87:
My thanks once again to you and Ultralinx's great work.
[Desire Themes and Apps] UltraLinx:
Oh ok. Well with mine you can use any launcher, not just launcher pro. Should have asked me to add the patched Rosie.
[Desire Themes and Apps] dancedreamfly:
I get that. I just tried to keep this port as close as possible to the one from the Evo. My notification bar is different from yours, too. If people want to mix and match elements from your themes and mine, I don't have a problem with that. I'm not trying to compete with you or anything. I just decided to port this theme for myself. Then I decided to post it 'cause I thought other people might like it. My theme might also be a more viable option for those using 2.09 Sense-based ROMs, because a lot of people have updated from AdamG's Official FroYo HTC Sense ROM (myself included). Just saying.
[Desire Themes and Apps] UltraLinx:
Oh ok good idea.

I'll put a link up in my original thread to this thread.

People then can mix and match and stuff. Because I'm sure there's people out there who will want the patched Rosie launcher.

;)
[Desire Themes and Apps] kien:
Great looking theme but how do you change the shortcut icons? the icon apk just installs an app showing all the icons? How do you actually use the icons using folderorganiser? and is it possible to change the mail icon but still have the unread count bubble?

Sorry for all the questions :o

EDIT: I flashed the theme file, not just the bottom bar or icons.
[Desire Themes and Apps] dancedreamfly:
Install the Simplism Icons app. Yes, it only shows a bunch of icons.

You go to FolderOrganizer, click on the apps tab, select an app, press the arrow down and click icon. Pick Icon Packs and the icons should appear. Select one.

On your home screen, long press anywhere, add a shortcut to a FolderOrganizer item. Pick the app with the modified icon.

FolderOrganizer and BetterCut don't support the unread count bubble. I might look into integrating the icon with the app itself in res/drawable, and I'll upload a zip here for the relevant apps like Mail, GMail and Messages.
[Desire Themes and Apps] kien:
Excellent, cheers. Integrating with the SMS/Gmail/Mail apps woud be great. If not, maybe Gmail Unread Count can be used with custom icons.

[Desire Themes and Apps] mklass:
I like the status bar on this theme as you guys were sayin im mixing and matchin with the minimalistic theme that UltraLinx has made. I prefer the icons on this status bar as there more clean and dont have the black square underlay that the Minimalistic theme has.

I think that this theme/status bar would look even better with a darker notification pull down or possible a translucent black back ground?

Perhaps you could have a darker pull down and also keep the light one. That way people can decide which they like best.

Just a thought....
[Desire Themes and Apps] r47z:

Thanks alot for this great piece of work!

I just have one issue with the theme.

Flashed it over MCR r8, and besides the telephone icon at the bottom centre of the screen I still have the "Phone" text.

Any ideas how to fix it?
[Desire Themes and Apps] LuffyPSP:
if i flash the Simplism Theme 2.0, i will get all the modded stuff right? and if i want to flash the icon only also can right?
[Desire Themes and Apps] Danifamous:
Having a few issues with R8 MCR, LauncherPro, and A2SD+ after installing this.

It sorta wipes my /data/apps, or "hides" it after reboot.

I've removed the sense homescreens, so i have sense, but the android default homescreen, as i use LP.

After applying theme, Everything works brilliantly, sexy and all, but after reboot, i cant use LP, see my apps, or install with A2SD.

Just get a low space error, and the android default homescreen. My apps are still in /settings/applications etc in the menus, but not in appdrawer.

Any ideas?
[Desire Themes and Apps] dancedreamfly:
You sure you're using A2SD+ and not the FroYo A2SD implementation? I'm pretty sure my theme doesn't modify anything with regards to your apps as it only modifies stuff in the /system/app and /system/framework partitions. Your apps would be on the /data partition and A2SD+ apps on /system/sdcard/app. My mod doesn't touch those partitions.

The FroYo A2SD implementation will make you lose LauncherPro and widgets upon reboot.

The string to remove the word 'Phone' is in Rosie.apk, are you sure you've included it?
[Desire Themes and Apps] dancedreamfly:
You can just install the SimplismIcons.apk, and use BetterCut or FolderOrganizer to use them.
[Desire Themes and Apps] Danifamous:
Yes, I know all of the Froyo/A2SD+. It just brought up a few bugs, making my SDcard Read-only too, so I've formatted all my SDcard, and reinstalled MCR r8 with A2SD, which I'm 100% sure works, as I've used it before several times and downloaded several large 20mb games etc.

Doing a complete wipe now with RomManger, and hope I can try install apps with the theme installed beforehand. :)

I've not actually did alot of themeing, but have used minimalistic theme, very similar to this, but not sense styled.

That one works 100%, but looks too...outdated.... like windows 95

And the apps aren't even accessible. I can see them taking up space, but cant run any, and the phone thinks they are uninstalled but the files are still there

EDIT: It seems to be a problem with the rom, seeing as a wipe, clean install and then theming results in bootloops :(
[Desire Themes and Apps] LuffyPSP:
thanks man! great work btw!
[Desire Themes and Apps] LuffyPSP:
btw is it possible to change the notification icons too? like the 3G watchdog icon at the top, etc...

Thanks!
[Desire Themes and Apps] blinde:
Is it possible to use only incoming call slider without Espresso itself?
[Desire Themes and Apps] dancedreamfly:
Luffy PSP: Unfortunately it'd be hard to change notification icons for Market apps, as these are overwritten each time you update the app so it'd be pretty useless. 2.0 already comes with the espresso lock screen.

blinde: I'll try to whip up a zip for you, do you mean you want just the espresso call slider with the regular Sense lockscreen?

From this point forward, I can't guarantee that the themes will be 100% working, as I've jumped ship to CyanogenMod for the time being. I'll try my best though, and if you guys have any more requests for this theme feel free to post them here.
[Desire Themes and Apps] LuffyPSP:
I see i see. Hehe i didnt get the expresso lockbar when flahsing the 2.0...still on the stock android lockscreen. but then i flashed a new ROM, and it worked brilliantly!

[Desire Themes and Apps] gamedok:
Will this work on Leedroid?
