[General Questions and Answers] n0vemberrain86:
ok so I rooted my droid incredible using unrevoked3. worked fine. installed rom manager, backed up my rom (rooted stock). installed sky raider 2.5, I noticed my gps wasnt working. I read online that I had to update the radio. I installed the pb31img to get back to stock worked no problem. I went to install the update.zip to get the new radio seemed to work fine then froze up on the htc incredible screen. I waited for a while then pulled the battery. (I'm stupid I know!) now at boot it is stuck on the white htc incridible screen. I can get into hboot/fastboot. I cannot use ADB. it says error device not found. The RUU starts to work and then says wrong rom. I downloaded the leaked 2.2 rom and tryed to install it with fastboot as update.zip. It says error signature not found where expected, something like that. I tried to use fastboot flash to flash the images from my backup but it says ethier remote: not allowed or remote: signature verify fail. I know there has to be a way to fix this I've just tried everything I can find and need some help thanks!

Some oddities I notice with Gmail and the new AT&T ROM for me.

The first is that in order to disable the automatic download of messages, I now have to pretty much click through all the account setup screens for the Gmail account. With the stock ROM, it was only a couple/few clicks to undo that setting. Just a little annoying.

The second is that two or three times now, removing the automatic downloading of messages didn't seem to 'take'. I'd uncheck that box and click "Done", and a bit later, my phone will alert me to new messages, and when I check the account settings, that box is checked again.

Weird.

Also, lately I've noticed that when I go into the Wireless Manager, Microsoft Direct Push is briefly on, but 'grayed out', and it turns to off as the menu finishes loading.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Deleted member 2594178:
Am not using the leaked ROM so I can't comment on the Gmail stuff. As for the MS Direct Push, I believe you have to be using Exchange.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Cthulhu111:
I don't use Exchange, and just find it weird that MS Direct Push seems to be "sneaking" on and switches off as the Wireless Manager pops up.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Deleted member 2594178:
Since you do not use Exchange, direct push should be off.

I'm using the vanilla sms program. can I remove the stock hero dialer and use the vanilla one? when I go into my epst settings and have to enter my msl, I get a blak dialer of sorts.

edit: can we use somethign from an eris or similar device?

edit2: i downloaded the 'nexus-like' dialer from this post. havent pushed it yet, pretty sure its for gsm
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unCoRrUpTeD:
what rom are you running. CM6 is all AOSP so the stock android dialer is in there. I attached both phone and contacts. Just adb push xxxxx.apk /system/app or adb install xxxxx.apk
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tailsthecat3:
im using nfinites .6odex version with a darch oc kernel. i pushed the vanilla messages app and it worked alright. will this work the same way and do i need to delete the originals in the phone via adb prior to pushing? long sentence. thank you thank you
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tailsthecat3:
well I tried pushing those over after I deleted phone.apk. couldn't find anything called contacts.apk to delete. I pushed them both and neither seemed to work. in fact phone.apk did not work. seemed like it couldn't find service...
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vandelay007:

Are these apk's the ones that come with CM6 RC1 already ?

[Touch2 General] theori1:
Is there anyway to use volume buttons for change the song when the phone locked.

I think the old SE walkman phone users get the situation.

By the way: English is my second language, so it's not very good. If i made a mistake please tell me. :)
[Touch2 General] theori1:
Anyone?...
[Touch2 General] rajan17_88:
any reg edit? i did a quick search found nothin....
[Touch2 General] theori1:
Can you open a threat in software development?
[Touch2 General] Stabata:
this would be great but i doubt a reg edit would do it. probably have to be software but ive never heard of any....

hope you find something though as it would be great not to have to unlock the phone just just skip a track

[XPERIA X10 General] chiqamia0122:
I bought my Xperia X10 last August 18 '10. I didn't have the initial charge that is 4 hours because X10 charging have automatic stop when the battery is full.

I charged it in the morning and it run for 24 hours just SMS and phone calls.

Then I try to install Advance Task killer and Helix Launcher. Task killer really makes my battery WORST! Instead of 24 hours life it became almost 12 hours only.. Helix is most probably not working. (I think.)

I uninstalled Advanced Task killer and no difference..

I would like to install Battery Life saver application but I don't know what Launcher fits best. I tried Helix but I think I doesn;t work better for my X10.

I envy other users that there phone last for 2-3 days. I want my phone just like that..

Any suggestions what launcher or application? and where can I download it for free?

Thank you so much XDA DEVELOPERS! :)
[XPERIA X10 General] zhoustanley:
wat firmware version are u on ? i found that it took 15-20 full charges for the battery to really break in...as well dont use task killers, they arent necessary. I used juicedefender for a bit, but didnt really see a difference. another helpful thing you should try is to restart your phone after charging

another app you could try is setcpu, however that requires root
[XPERIA X10 General] Mobzter:
Try adw launcher
[XPERIA X10 General] junkk29:
My suggestion is root the phone, use ADW launcher and uninstall any task killer apps like ATK or JD. My X10 lasts 2 days with moderate usage, that includes games and music too. It'll last three if I only use it for texting and calling. Hope this helps :)
[XPERIA X10 General] ddewbofh:
Agreed, ditch the "powersaving" apps, they kill standby time. Also check how synchronisation is set up, constantly waking up to update facebook, twitter, mail et cetera will kill your battery.
[XPERIA X10 General] suzed:
Can only agree with the other posts, and just to re-affirm that you need to cycle the battery a good few times to get the best from it and three days is still early days. ADW is a great launcher, you don't need to be rooted if that's out of your comfort zone.
[XPERIA X10 General] Tjotte:
My way is NOT using any task killers or battery savers, leave all that to android! Do 3 full charge/decharge cycles and one every ones in a while. And ofc 2-3h of youtube will drain your battery.
[XPERIA X10 General] Cebees:
quite interesting point about task killing app.

I heard in both side while app-killing save a batt and drain a batt.

May be people are in difference behavior. and their using s/w is also difference.

Any specific thread for this?

My first (few) days for x10 is like you, twice or triple charge a day, I even bought spare batt. I decided to root and upgrade to the lastest firmware, clean all startup app, clean all scheduled sync and turn on juicedefender with new home-app. that was big improve from 7-10HR to 20-25HR with moderate use.

You should give a try
[XPERIA X10 General] ddewbofh:
Retracted: I misread the post mentioning JuiceDefender as being about ATK. My bad. :)
[XPERIA X10 General] Lord Takyon:
I currently only use juice defender, seems to do the trick. Task killers made no difference to me.

Research how android works and you will see task killers are pointless. Just stop things doing automatic updating instead.

Swyped from my rooted X10i using Tapatalk.
[XPERIA X10 General] chiqamia0122:
Firmware version 1.6.. I uninstall already Task killer and Helix Launcher, both no help. It makes my battery worst. How many days you used your phone after full charge?
[XPERIA X10 General] chiqamia0122:
I can't find free download.. Did it helps a lot?
[XPERIA X10 General] chiqamia0122:
How can I root the phone? where can I download ADW Launcher for free? Whew I hope my X10 will be better like yours :(
[XPERIA X10 General] zhoustanley:
i get about 20 hours of fairly heavy usage before charge however i am on build number R2BA020, running helix launcher and setcpu (screen off @ 524mhz scaling on demand)

my approx usage a day:

50 texts

10 emails

hour on phone calls

wifi usually connected

gps off

update interval usually the longest duration

30-45mins of web browsing
[XPERIA X10 General] chiqamia0122:
@ ddewbofh : Where can I find it? Sorry for the stupid question. I'm starting to learn for now. :)

@ suzed : I already downloaded ADW Launcher, does it really have automatic task manager? If I use it, it will affect my battery or not? :)

@ Tjotte : I want battery saver because I can't bring my charger always. I already had 3 cycles of full charge/decharge, still no change.

@ Cebees : How will i root and upgrade the firmware? Can I do it all by myself? Do I have to reformat my X10?

Thanks for the replies! :) It really helps me a lot. I'm still observing how ADW Launcher works for me. Hope for your comments and suggestions again :) (sorry for the poor english)
[XPERIA X10 General] chiqamia0122:
I want to clarify something. Is ADW Launcher a battery saver or just for themes? My friends says it's not a battery saver. I want to know, I'm confused. :(
[XPERIA X10 General] ddewbofh:
It's a great launcher with themes, it's not specifically designed to save battery. :)
[XPERIA X10 General] chiqamia0122:
Is it okay for my X10 to Full charge/decharge while using ADW Launcer?
[XPERIA X10 General] ddewbofh:
Yeah, it's no problem. ADW is a normal app, it works the same way as the standard launcher.
[XPERIA X10 General] chiqamia0122:
but it's also used for battery saving right or no help and just for themes?
[XPERIA X10 General] peo306:
my advice:

try to find brightness level control and set it to (0-25%)

turn off GPS, Bluetooth ,Wifi, Apn when you don't use it

better software to do that extender controls but it's not free

Hi tehre, i'm having problems to get the phone into the download mode, i'm hoding the vol down key along with the power button, but the only thing i get is the phone showing Samsug vibrant and restarting over and over again.

Am i doing something wrong? I just downloaded an app from the market called wuick boot, i tried selecting the bootlader option, but same thing, the phone just reboots, and i get back to the phone menu.

Any help will be more than apprecciated.

Thanks in advance!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dex1701:
Is your phone rooted? I had the same issue and resorted to just doing it by using a terminal command on my rooted phone.

If you have a terminal app, just do this:

>su
#reboot download
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matiasg85:
I will try that when i get back home, thing is, i'd like to have a way to go into download mode from the phoine it self, just in case if it bticks i can safely get it back to work.

Thanks.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dex1701:
Just so happens I nearly bricked mine last night. Couldn't even get into recovery mode or see the charging icon when I plugged it in. Here's what I did (after much trial and error):

1. Removed SD and SIM card

2. Removed battery

3. plugged the phone into USB

4. held down vol-up and vol-down

5. popped the battery back in while holding vol buttons

...and that got be from looking like I was dead in the water to download mode and a stock ROM flash.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matiasg85:
Thanks a lot man! Will try that and report back!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matiasg85:
It worked!!! Thanks man!

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FSY2K:
Work for New Vibrant?

Hey guys, I have a new Vibrant, Im guessing its the new batch of Vibrant because I can't use the volume up+down +power to go into recovery or download mode. I just wonder if this also works for my version of Vibrant because I did a lag fix and it bricked me... Therefore if this works, I would be so happy that I will cry. =( I'll try it anyways, but if anyone have a similar device to mine, please let me know I would love to get some info on it. =( I just needs it to be in Download Mode to flash it with ODIN back to stock. =)

By the way, would you mind telling me what stock rom you use? and software to flash it? Thanks a lot! I appreciate all of your help! Im really desperate to get my phone back to work... its been showing up vibrant screen make a start up sound and go blank... so scary...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pepperbreath:
Did you remove the sim? Is the phone plugged into a pc via the usb cord? From my experience, the vibrant will only go into download mode if it's plugged to a pc.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mr2t32:
I think I also got the new batch of vibrant. Maybe we should get a list of release date and serial of the phone. Maybe we might be able to figure out which phone can or can not use the vol down + power. Mine is 8/13/2010 rs 170-0412
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FSY2K:
I will try that as soon as I get the phone back. My cousin has it now and he's trying to look for methods to help me fix it too. =( So i will go get the phone soon and try your methods of removing everything. I just wanted to ask you guys to see if you guys had that recovery mode function (volume up _ volume down +power) disabled by T-Mobile. Because if all of you guys have the new batch of Vibrant then most likely mine will have a chance too. =) But thanks for the reply and the tip I will definitely follow all of your instruction and update further about this case. Hopefully it would work with your methods for the new vibrant batch. No one here seem to post much threads about the new batch.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FSY2K:
Yeah I definitely got the new batch since I cant use that recovery mode function like everyone else here does. I also got mine in August, 8/28/10. I dont have the box and phone to see the serial right now since it was taken to my cousin house to try and figure out a way to get it into download mode. =( But from the looks of it, anything from August is disabled... wonder hows the July one. My brother has a Vibrant from late July, which is July 23, 2010 and his recovery mode isn't disable at all. =( :eek:
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] renocivik:
I had the same problem last night... thought I bricked... my phone was stuck at the vibrant screen.. and my phone is the newer model.... but I still figured out a way to get it to let me send an ADB command.. I posted a guide in the android dev section... let me know if that helps...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FSY2K:
What is the subject of that post? Is there a way you can link us to that post? Thanks! =) That would totally help if you can adb it back!

Nevermind I found it, thanks a bunch i will try that method too....
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithrich1990:
To get in recovery mode i have to hold the power button and the up vol until the vibrant screen comes on and goes out, then you SLIDE and hold both vols when the vibrant screen comes up (for the second time) you SLIDE to the vol down and let go of the power button. I did 5 times in a row to make sure this works. Hope this will help somone

I have another story. I bricked my Vibrant trying to go back to stock using Odin it hung on a step. The brick to where the (Cell Phone ! Computer) comes up. After 30 minutes of panic trying to get my phone to go into download mode. I opened Kies mini, unplugged my USB connector plugged it into a new USB slot then hooked up my Vibrant and re installed the drivers. It found it. But I still couldn't do anything. So then I closed Odin reopened it unplugged and then re plugged my Vibrant back in. It found it on a COM port so then I tried a restore from there and it let me do it. Wow! I am amazed at how hard it is to permanently brick this phone.

If you want to switch carriers that's one thing. But on GSM carriers there really is no worthy upgrade till the G2, but even then... A stock 4" phone is needed, the Galaxy S is is more of a side-grade IMO.

The dev level upgrades are one thing that would make me keep this phone for at least mid way through the next year. I like the fact that Google will upgrade this phones' software for a while at least and we don't have to wait for hacked roms or carrier OTA's.
