[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plmiller0905:
So anyone know how to get rid of all these multiple contact listing for the same person when in the stock text messaging App?

I logged into my gmail account online and deleted all the multiple entries there. When I open up the "People/Contacts" app it shows all my contacts correctly, listing each one, one time only.

However, when I go to text message someone, I have like several contact entries for the same person with the same info.

So anyone know how to get rid of this it would be helpful. I don't know if this helps but I'm running the EVio Rom as well.

Thanks

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] happyfree:
Some games (like Syberia 2) are dedicated to VGA devices. When running on HD2, there is a part of the screen not used.

Is it possible to have a black screen before launching this game in order to get rid of unpleasant background screen?

Thanks in advance for your help
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] videov:
I am new to Mobile os. I have a HTC HD2 and I hate Windows I run Ubuntu on my desktop. I wanted to have android on my phone I went to a uk site and downloaded froyo with sense. Installed it. It ran. Everything worked. GPS. Weather. Put all my info in. Everything was Rosey. Then I touched the flag button, and everything froze. I tried to hard reset. When I touched CLRCAD It said improper cert. or parts missing. It will not let me run anything but windows. I have reformated the sd several times and used several different builds nothing works but windows. Is this something new or does this always happens to duffies like me?
[EVO 4G General] potna:
I'm referring to the fact that the battery drains rapidly in the first few minutes, and might drain more rapidly than it should the rest of the day.

heres a post i made on another thread, but created a new topic also because i feel i really want to start a discussion about 2 different things:

1 my perceived odd battery charge cycle.

2 how many of us have this issue?

3 if not all of us have this issue then maybe there's hope i can swap this out for a different phone with out this issue.

here is my original post:

i do have something unique to add to this discussion but first:

well i can say that i did try this "top off" thing and it does seem to work, but as soon as i discharge the battery though use and recharge that night i was right back in the same boat of having a battery that drops very rapidly in the first 10 minutes or so and then continues to drop faster than it should the rest of the day. so imo, this top it off method only works at that moment, ie, not a long term fix.

also, i charged my evo battery in my touch pro2 and the charge didn't drop rapidly in the first few minutes. Also it seemed to last all day much better then it previously. i was able to play around all day with the phone and the battey drain was surprisingly good.

ok, the interesting thing i observed and i can replicate is:

when using the battery graph app i can watch battery level percentages versus time on a chart. in this chart i observed a charge cycle pattern that has me concerned.

while charging the percentage line on the graph was gradually increasing at a semi steady rate from 0% till 90%, then changed its charge rate at 90%

here is how it broke down.

0% 114am

90% 309am steady increase all the way to 90%

100% 315am very rapid charge at this stage (probably not good)

basically it had a steady charge rate of .78% per minute until it hit 90%.

then the remaining 10% rate was: 2.5% per minute.

this last 10% of the charge cycle charges 3.2 times faster rate then the previous 90%. i don't know much about charging but this may be a hint to something that's causing this issue.

also, just how many of us have this issue? all of us, whether we know it or not?

some of use? will there be a fix? is this covered by a warranty or software fix, or so we need to "top it off" every charge?

i'm still within my 30 days and i dont want to swap this out for another if they all have this issue.
[EVO 4G General] martyzidek:
I think its the way evo charges the battery.. As I posted about my findinga that when charged in my tp2 I dont see this fast drop anymore. The drop I saw was a 1/8 of the battery icon within 15 min not using.. So more than 10% drainage.. Also its nice the tp2 battery is the same.. So I always have a charged battery so I just switch out batts.. Most of use have this prob unless rooted and tweeked with setcpu..

Edit: only charge batteries from tp2 not from evo anymore..

sent from my Evo
[EVO 4G General] wfrandy:
I have read that this is the way the Evo is supposed to work. The battery charges to 100%, then it quits charging and runs off of the battery until it reaches approximately 90% charge, Then starts charging again. This is supposed to be better for the battery. So, if you take it off of the charger when it is about ready to start charging again, it can drop 10% in the first 5 minutes.

Franky, it appears to work this way with my phone, but I have not had the rapid battery drain issues that some have. My battery regularly makes it through the day fine with moderate to heavy use.

Another thing I have noticed is that not messing with it helps a lot. After I upgrade my rom it seems to take about three days for the battery to get back to its normal cycle. for the first day it drains faster than normal, but last longer each day thereafter.
[EVO 4G General] potna:
i have done the same thing with using the touch pro 2 to charge my evo battery. kinda rediculas dont ya think?

that sure makes for an expensive charger, i would much rather sell my touch pro 2 to offset some of the cost for early termination what not.

i talked to customer support and of course their response was the canned response of "your evo is power hungery thats all...yada yada"

do you think that all evo's have this issue and no one else is noticing?
[EVO 4G General] cddmh:
What I find funny is you buy a heavy use device that is designed for using. Everything you do on this device uses battery. I went from the touch pro 2 to this device and I am happier with the EVO than I was with the tp2. You might be surprise how much battery life you would get if you turn off all the radios except for the phone portion and only us this as a phone.

After the touch, mogul, touch pro, and tp2, I am permanently an HTC customer.

Sorry, just my opinion. I may be wrong.

Sent from my Sprint EVO 4g with the XDA app!
[EVO 4G General] mjz147:
The bad thing is not all of us have an extra touch pro 2 lying around to charge our evo.

When I leave my phone on the charger and not use it at all and it drains 10% in 6 minutes that's rediculous. even though my phone has technically been in standby mode and using the battery for the top 10% their hasn't been one time where I took my phone off the charger and it didnt drop in 5 minutes.
[EVO 4G General] Hrshycro:
Mine is random. Some days I get great battery life, and others I get 5 hours. I'm going having two spare batteries and a wall charger will fix this.
[EVO 4G General] potna:
Maybe I gave too much info and perhaps I drowned my main point

The charging algorithm changes The speed in which it charges the battery at the last 10% of the charge.

This is probably the problem.

My tilt 2 does not do this. Therefore I get a proper charge and the charge lasts as it should.

Look at my findings above.

All my contacts, messages, applications are gone. Is there a way to get them back? i've got my contacts back from samsung kies.. but what about messages? and applications?

help!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Kil:
If you've made a backup before the flash, yes. Something tells me you didn't..
[Galaxy S I9000 General] _JKay_:
Root and TitaniumBackup is the way to fly (at least on Galaxy S).
[Galaxy S I9000 General] immyh:
so what about those that dont have root
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sensi_:
you just use MyBackup from the market :)

i use ASTRO to backup my apps, and then MyBackup saves all your settings, msgs, calls, call logs, contacts everything you can think of
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ngkkv:
Ah... Was i even warned..... Zzz oh well. Say hello to clean slate phone
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Intratech:
Well they usually hide the warnings and instructions in things call threads.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ngkkv:
so there is no way of inserting my saved sms from my

PC samsung kies to my phone, right?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] immyh:
well Kies does allow you to backup your sms but not your apps which is crazy so anything you have used on the phone is deleted all your settings the whole works.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ngkkv:
so... can i port my sms from kies back to my phone?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ngkkv:
Bump
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Tyxerakias:
No. Kies is useless, don't expect it to do meaningful things like that. If you could convert the sms .sme format to .xml, then maybe we could do something..but I don't think it can be done. Sorry.

im running an evo rom on my hd2 that i downloaded from this forum it works great exept my incoming picture messages are reduced in size. for instance if the original pic size is 50kb it comes through as 15kb on my phone. i have gone through all the settings but no luck any input would be great. thanks

Just wanna say great work. Works perfectly on Fresh 3.1.0.1. But was wondering if your could change the green sync icon to white. IMHO I think it would look a lot better.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] gudda1:
I agree ... a white sync icon would be legit.

Also, I'm new to android so bare with me.. but I just flashed a zip file that replaced the battery icon with a numeric icon..

Will I need to do anything, like remove a file, before flashing this new .zip file over, or will it just overwrite the old one?

thanks!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] robpet2:
Are we flashing the zip or unzipping it to get the apk
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Sporkman:
Look inside the zip see how its set up if there is 2 folders then it should be flashable

If u see the. Apks then unzip it

from the apple store loling

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] maxomus:
You gots to flash it...
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] bacdoliljo:
Any way to just use the icon we want? I only want the battery icon.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] barnacles10:
You can unzip and throw your images in where you don't want them.

I also have a version WITHOUT percentages which use the stock icons, some animated, with white sync, gps, upload download being the animated ones.

I'm also working on a blue battery I saw someone mention that. Check out my sig link if you're interested.

Bump for a great mod! HTC was slacking on this one, and I can't believe they didn't do this stock.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] JG-1:
As in put put the zip in your SD card, boot into recovery and install the zip?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] leeh41:
Thanks for porting this. Taking requests?

Could do change the battery color on the Manup Smooth Sense to match the green on the theme? and/or make it smooth, rather than the battery lines |||||||

I really like the battery on the Sense Smooth sense, but dont like the taskbar that fades from light to dark.

Thanks! Keep up the great work.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fsiddique:
I verified that you must flash your mod after flashing his services.jar mod. Flashing the gps mod after flashing smooth sense will go back to stock icons.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] faster3200:
I tried a green version first but it looked awful. I will probably start winding down support for this mod since I am working on a few things for an upcoming rom and theme.

That means the update.zip you flashed (Manup's) contains a framework-res.apk file that replaces mine. If you just flash a service.jar mod my mod won't get wiped away. Thanks for informing me and others.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] kamiller42:
Is there a way to keep all of the smooth mods except the battery? I want to restore the default battery indicator.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] faster3200:
Not unless you make a special version.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] daktah:
what are the chances of black taskbar / 50% transparent black taskbar / white taskbar / 50% white taskbar / 100% transparent taskbar choices?

or making a version that goes with mrpuffins theme here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=710162
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] faster3200:
The first request I don't want to do because it means I have to maintain 4 extra versions and it kind of just clutters things up and I am busy atm. That and looking at my downloads, the dl count drops off significantly when comparing the normal version with the requested variations so I don't know if it is worth the extra work. Also, I have never tried it, but I heard that transparent statusbars won't work because the bg doesn't go all the way to the top. It stops at the statusbar and behind it is just black. I will happily help you do it though if you want directions. It should be easy if you know what you want.

The second request I won't do (now) either because it is a massive task to make a version for a different theme. If you want to do it I will guide you but it is quite a challenge.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] mdmitchell13:
Any ETA on when you will be available to upload a version for a stock rooted?

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] lazyboy0172:
Are there any plans to include a transparent notification tray in smooth mods in the future? using adb and modifying services.jar and framework-res as explained in THIS THREAD to try to get the effect myself only brought my phone to its demise and I had to nandroid restore (the phone booted but force closed EVERY htc process there was. I tried this in different orders as well- smooth first, then clear notification, or clear notification then smooth. I can do one or the other just fine, but having both always resulted in having to hard reset. Is there a particular reason why they don't play nice together? Can I fix this myself? and finally if I cannot fix it myself are there any plans to release smooth mods that can play nice with this?

Thanks
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] bugzy:
Which download would I need to use to install the Battery Percentage on a OMJ v3.4 ROM?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] faster3200:
I haven't tested this mod on the newest OTA versions yet so it may or may not work. I will have a new version based on the newest OTA in the near future.

The standard version will be released first and possibly be the only one released based on the newest OTA. The other versions just aren't getting enough dls for me to support, plus the amount of variations seems to be confusing people.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] bmtdan:
i can confirm that it does not just lots of fc on basically every application on my phone it was terrible lol
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] leeh41:
Works fine for me. I'm on the new OTA 3.29 and using 1.02 flashed to my phone.

Not sure if it makes a difference, but I'm on Fresh ROM.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] nukedukem:
I love these mods! I would like to include them in another theme that has a heavily modified framework.apk. Can anyone tell me what xml files are changed to enable these smoothsense mods? Maybe I could compare xml's to find out how to add this mod to another theme I'm using.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] dianneeraser:
Flashed the battery percent mod only on myns rom...stock deodexed and works great! Mad props!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] faster3200:
The newest OTA doesn't change the framework-res.apk file (what this mod uses) based on my investigation so the mod should work. That said the framework-res.apk that this mod is based on is rather old so some people may encounter problems. The age shouldn't effect anything other than compatibility.

Like I said, there is a new version coming out soon. It would have been out today but my adb drivers decided to disappear and it took me far too long to notice and fix the issue so I didn't get a chance to test out the new version. Hopefully I will have something out tomorrow.

In drawable/

stat_sys_battery

stat_sys_battery_charge

stat_sys_download

stat_sys_gps_acquiring_anim

stat_sys_upload

zzz_stat_sys_battery_1

stat_notify_sync_anim0 (gets added)

Lots of images in drawable-hdpi and of course don't forget to make sure everything gets added to public.xml

The hardest part of the mod is figuring what and how everything gets edited so you should be well on your way in that regard. The most time consuming thing is the hundreds of extra images you now have to edit.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] nukedukem:
Thank you so much for this!! I have a question though, I have merged all the xml info into the theme I'm using and changed the png's in drawable-hdpi, but I have no idea how to add things to public.xml. I can't even find it! Google doesn't bring up much either. How do I do this?

Edit: ok I decoded with apktool and found public.xml. I've never done any themeing to this degree before. Anything I should watch out for if I'm just merging xml's?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] faster3200:
Merging the public.xml files won't work. You will need to manually add the entries and make sure that each new one has a unique ID. Also make sure you delete stat_notify_sync_anim0.png in drawable-hdpi since I reused that name for the xml file in drawable so as not to have to create a new entry.

hi there

i flashed this after a clean wipe and install od dc3.5

bootloop central

could someone lend me a hand?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] liquidrezin:
I had the same bootloop issue except that I'm using baked snack 1.8, based off of the 3.29 ota... I'm eagerly waiting for an update for this mod :)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] faster3200:
Can someone let me know if these files work for them. The battery only one should work, but I am not sure about the other. They are updated but I don't have time to test them on all the roms like I normally would. Once people start confirming they work the OP will be updated.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] liquidrezin:
I'll test out the full and let you know.. here's what happened to me before using the previous version. When I went from BS 1.75 to 1.8 without a wipe, I was able to apply the previous version over my 1.8 update. I had to wipe because going to 1.8 from 1.75 caused some battery issues.

When I fully wiped and reapplied 1.8 then smooth sense, that's when I got the boot loop.... I'll check back in with any info... Since I have my phone backed up, I'll apply the update 1.0.3 version on top right now and back it up. Then I'll wipe and see if I get that same boot loop coming from a fully wiped update.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] liquidrezin:
Baked Snack 1.8 Full Wipe + 1.0.3, I still get a boot loop.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] thenags:
So do you need to flash these over an existing theme or can I flash it over my stock install of CM6 final?

I hate the white status bar
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] faster3200:
For the CM6 version you can just flash it over stock CM6.

Thanks. I'll do some testing today.

EDIT: So I tested and 1.0.3 is working on the newest Fresh. When you wiped and applied how did you do it? You need to flash the Rom and have it setup before you apply this mod. You can't flash the rom and the mod in the same go.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] thenags:
Sweet. Flashing now
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] thenags:
Hmm.. Some things aren't displaying properly for me.. Is there a way to revert back to stock?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] daniel06gt:
Flashing the Manup Smooth sense for CM6 works great, but if I flash the SmoothSense on CM6 it bootloops.... Any ideas??
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] faster3200:
Did you follow the directions?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] daniel06gt:
Yeah I went to CM6 setting all back to default. No matter what REVolution works perfectly, SmoothSense keeps bootlooping.... I might just be missing something.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] thenags:
There weren't much for instructions on CM6 final. I only saw some notes for RC2.

And my CM settings were stock.. I hadn't changed anything

My background is solid black instead of gradiant and my battery indicator is black and white

I also tried importing the colors from XML like it said for RC2 and that didn't change anything
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] liquidrezin:
Ah ok, I did a wipe then flash over without setting up first... which would explain why 1.0.2 worked before I did a wipe previously. Thanks for the heads up.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] faster3200:
Alright thanks, I'll investigate it when i have time.

Sorry, RC2 notes will be the same as the final version. It sounds like it is actually working for you though. The CM6 version is a Smooth-Mod of Manup's REVOlution theme, not of stock sense.

Yeah, I have had lots of issues getting it to work when included in a rom. I managed to get it working for the last OTA but not the current one. It seems for some reason all the stuff that happens during the initial setup don't like my modded versions. Once everything is done there are no issues.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Askym:
yes i was just going to come back and let you know it was for bluetooth lol i make most my calls with bluetooth....but the other day i didnt and wow i had the right icon lol. any update on this?
