[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChristopherBurg:
Honestly I wouldn't worry about doing any battery calibration. Battery calibration reminds me of breaking in a barrel on a new rifle. If you talk to 20 different people you will receive 20 different methods of doing the task. Generally if there isn't a single known method with proven results you can attribute the method to the placebo effect.

One thing I always wonder about these battery calibration methods is how the tests were performed. A lot of the time people will claim improved battery life but there is often another explanation for the increase in battery life, they rebooted the phone. If there was a process running amok it could very well have lowered their battery life and rebooting the phone simply killed the process thus improving battery life.

Personally I've never done anything special to calibrate the battery on any device I've owned and I've not have battery life problems. In fact when comparing the battery life of my devices vs. my friends who spent a lot of time calibrating we end up having almost identical time in which we can run on battery.

Just my two cents.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ElAguila:
I don't really think it improves the battery so much as it makes it give you a proper reading. Mine can say the battery is down to 30% but it charges really fast. So I think it is an issue of reading the battery level properly.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evo4gfan:
doesn't charging like this deteriorate battery life? you keep pushing and pushing more volts into your battery. I think its better to do a full charge/discharge cycle a few times a week.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ElAguila:
You only do it like this once and not every time. Also I have heard that with the lithium ion batteries you don't want to drain them completely or they may not charge up.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skydeaner:
Not with lithium ion. IN fact with li-ion/li-poly batteries, discharging them completely can kill them instantly.

Exactly. It is all about being able to read the battery at 100 percent when it is actually at 100% that way the meter goes down properly percentage wise and you don't lose 20 percent in the first 10 minutes after you unplug the damn phone lol. But the said method does in fact fix this problem. You should after doing the method listed on my website, or mentioned in the email from htc, see less of a drop after removing the charger.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evo4gfan:
thanks for clarifying.

Hello

I wanted to backup so i ran the backup with ROM Manager and it froze when it was backing up .android secure. I had to pull out the battery so I don't think it was completed has this happened to anyone?
[Nexus One General] christiankk:
Yeah, it happens to everyone not posting in the right forum.:rolleyes:
[Nexus One General] ryanolson7:
You kidding me? If this isn't the place for it then where would he post it? Certainly not in the development section.

Sometimes backups get corrupt man, that sucks.. you'll probably just have to start anew

As fun as it is to "act-a-mod", you both need to stop.

ANYWAYS, OP: If at first you don't succeed, try try again. If it fails again, try flashing a different recovery.
[Nexus One General] Clarkster:
Yeah, just try backing up again. It has happened to me before. Stuck backing up at .android_secure. So I just tried to backup again, then it worked.
[Nexus One General] sstang2006:
if you all want a recovery on which you can trust, then switch to Amon_Ra's recovery (RA-nexus-v1.7.0.1)
[Nexus One General] RogerPodacter:
i keep having a similar problem. my backups can be created just fine. but when i try to restore them they ALWAYS hang at a certain file, such as event_1626573434.txt or whatever it may happen to be. sometimes i can go to advanced nand and restore each portion individually, which sometimes works. so the backup itself works. i really dont know what the problem could be. using clockwork recovery.

That's not entirely true, that's pure opinion.

I happen to have the same issue. Is pulling the battery the only way to get out of it?
[Nexus One General] njiwani:
Yes
[Nexus One General] sstang2006:
yeap, my opinion may turn out to be a fact.
[Nexus One General] Clarkster:
Nope. I'm not sure what I pressed, but I think trackball + power button. And then the phone restarted. Didn't need to pull the battery.

Hi,

I've been searching and searching, but I could not find a nice looking icon for "brightness control".

Anyone has one? :)

Thanks for sharing.
[Desire Themes and Apps] Software Guru:
I use Quick Settings to change things on my rooted Desire, seems to do the job and the icon seems to be okay for me
[Desire Themes and Apps] bob dylan:
I use the icon set frois from the market and a amora. Google amora icons to see what they look like.
[Desire Themes and Apps] theatomicfart:
I use brightness level from curvefish. It's simple but effective, clean looking too. Just search the market for it.
[Desire General] mayurh:
hi everyone

i was wondering if this can be done?

since the desire has an accelerometer and bluetooth

im sure there is a possibility of using our desires as a wii remote?
[Desire General] HighSnobility:
No idea @_@
[Desire General] ZigmaDK:
I guess you would need the wii to recognize the Desire as a bluetooth wiimote, because I don't think the Wii will just want to work with a random bluetooth device.

But why?

A Wiimote with Motionplus has longer batterylife and a better shape.

Plus I would rather risk throwing my wiimote than my Desire. It's quite a lot cheaper.

I was using Hulu with the flash player hack, and it was working beautifully. I have been running the nightlies for a while, and I can't tell what changed. But now when I try to use hulu, the audio is so slow the voices sound possessed!

I found some users in the Incredible forum ran into the same issues when an audio fix for froyo was applied to their rom. But one user posted solving both problems.

Has anyone else run into this? If so have you found a fix?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deviouskater:
Yeah I too have this problem

Go to Google type hulu hack xda developers then look for June 17th fix. Works great on my evolution no audio problems.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bradleyw801:
That's actually where I got the hack in the first place. I un-installed it and installed it again today, and I am still getting the same result. I even flashed back to a previous nightly build, the only one I had a nand backup for, and same problem.

I did find this in the incredible forum,

just add this extension to the URL at the top showthread.php?p=7712210, and check out comment #73

His solution seemed a little over my head, but would something like this work for us?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crakerjaks:

Disabled dsp still a no go..it's weird the ads sound fine once it gets to the actual video it messes up ..thanks for trying. Any other ideas?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bradleyw801:
I have tried everything. There is an updated "fixed-flash" in the forum where I found it the first time. I uninstalled my old one, re-booted, and then installed the new one. Couldn't get it to work.

I tried using the hulu.apk, which is really just the Hulu bookmark widget from hulu.com. I tried running it through Dolphin HD, I tried it through the stock browser, and I got the demon voices almost every time. There were few occasions where commercials would come in fine, and one time the actual clip played with normal audio, but 90% of the time, I am getting slow audio.

It seems like in the droid incredible forums, they are discussing this more. I found this from a dinc forum.

This is how I understand it. Google changed something to the audio streams for Froyo. Apparently catering to a newer technology called stagefright I believe. But, this made Pandora, Slacker, and other audio only streams sound like an old record player. So, Google released a fix. Adrynalyne posted that fix early. But it seems that this "fix" only fixes the streaming audio for those music apps and sites. But it caused a delay in the flash audio from sites like Hulu. In regards to this, there was a droid incredible forum talking about a ROM called SkyRaider. I wonder if Cyanogen used the same fix.

"SkyRaider incorporates adrynalyne's audio fix, which was released by google, which as previously mentioned fixed the AAC streams. The side effect was that Hulu and other sites were getting "devil voice" audio. So basically you could either have one or the other, not both.

Prior to the audio fix was an alternate fix where you changed a variable in the build.prop. This fixed both aac (ie. Pandora) and did not distort the sound in Hulu. The only thing affected was a slightly lower quadrant score. No decrease in performance, just a lower score. Personally, I'm still using the build.prop because I don't care about quadrant scores and my phone works properly in all aspects. Again this fix is rather old school now so maybe a better alternative has been cooked up but it's what I've been using for quite a while with no issues. "

Does anyone with more experience than me know what that means? Can this be applied to the Evo?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bradleyw801:
There don't seem to be too many people interested in this post. But for those that are. I did try editing the build.prop file using a root explorer. It didn't work. I will post if I find anything that does.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cushockey66:
Yea I've been trying to fix this for 2 weeks now..I even applied skyraders fix to see if would work crashed my phone..I keep posting and also no buddy seems like there interested in it..i would love tofix this problem cause now it's become a obsession..I've tried and have gotten nowhere..ill give 10 bucks to anyone that can fix this for me!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] illogic6:
http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=7880766&postcount=6

After researching this for a while, I've found the only way to do this is to disable Stagefright. Hopefully this won't be a permanent thing. Follow the instructions in the above link. Pandora and Hulu seem to BOTH be functioning properly on the newest Cyanogen nightly after applying this fix.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcoyle:
The Cause of this issue?

I thought I post what results in Hulu sound running slow for me. Hulu works great when I first flash MIKSHIFT v1.0 for the HTC EVO Shift.

When I start having the slow sound on Hulu is right after I do a wipe of the user data (System Reset). It does not matter if you do the system reset from within "Settings/SD & phone storage/Factory data reset" or if you run this from within clockworkmod recovery.

After the reset and installing the huku fix apx the issue with the sound appears.

So it seems that doing the reset is causing something to be changed that causes this issue.

Please let me know if anyone has found a solution for this.

So I just found the fancy widget apk which imitates htc.s sense UI and..

It Looks awesome on my x10, but the widget doesnt display any weather information ¿

Do I need to install something to access this feature?

Thanks in advance.

I had it before.. its pretty random.. it used to be on n off for me!!

Aparently its been pulled from the market following a complaint by HTC?? Just tried to find it and couldn't so had a google.

http://www.androidzoom.com/android_applications/news_and_weather/fancy-widget_gztv.html

I just got Beautiful Widget yesterday and its lovely. Yes I had to pay 1.78 Euros for it but well worth it. Might be an alternative if you can't get yours working.
[XPERIA X10 General] killerskincanoe:
You may need to go to the fancy widget config screen and uncheck the location box at the top and then 'set location'

Will no longer be greyed out. Set ur location and it should work. Did for me neway . . . .
[XPERIA X10 General] pngface:
Can someone post a video of beautiful widget running on their x10? I want to buy it based on what everyone is saying but I don't know much about how it actually looks ;)
[XPERIA X10 General] suzed:
To be fair its a bit pointless showing you any pics of it cos its soooo skin-able that it would take 100's of shots to show you.

Its 4 colums wide and two deep, you have large clock display, day, date temperature and picture of the weather. The clock can be either in its own box with background or a see thru one so it sits over your wall paper nicely (which is what I have got!) The clock font and colour is hugely changeable, you just download more skins to your phone - free once you've made the initial purchase. The weather pictures probably have a dozen different settings. The text colour for the day date bit is entirely your choice.

It is 'beautiful' and for under £2 its pretty darn cheap for what you get.
[XPERIA X10 General] pngface:
Thanks for the great description

But with the imminent update to 2.1, is there any point in getting it now? We can just use the weather live wallpaper :)
[XPERIA X10 General] suzed:
Imminent :eek: do you know something we dont? Lol. Hadn't thought about that, but I'm kind of bad at waiting for stuff when I decide I want it. Typical impatient woman!

Well by imminent I meant coming anytime before the world ends in 2012

I think I will wait it out. Thanks though

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brutuz1000and1:
I've noticed that my G1 (Running CM6) tends to run out of RAM fairly often, I was thinking maybe having swap space might help me a bit with this, however I only have a Class 2 SDHC Card (16GB), would I see any performance increment or should I just wait until I can afford a much faster one? (eg. The Kingston Class 10 one)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndDiSa:
I would suggest to use no swap at all ... if RAM is too low, try to enable compcache it will help you probably a bit. I noticed a massive performance drop when enabling swap on CM6.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mejorguille:
Swap and CM5/6 don't get along. The memory killer in the kernel thinks that swap is actually free RAM and keeps more things open, stopping tasks from being killed at all. If you want to use swap, I recommend you use a donut/cupcake/hero rom that uses a different kernel so that things don't get down to a screeching halt. And anyways, the fastest speed I have ever seen my phone write something from my computer to the phone via USB is 2.7mb/s, compared with 6-12mb/s I get from an sdcard reader. That means that even when your phone is writing at top speed, it is just barely far from the 2mb/s write speed guaranteed by a class 2. You will definately see better performance with swap on a class 4, but anything higher won't benefit your phone much at all, unless you regularly transfer large amounts of files to your memery card via a card reader.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brutuz1000and1:
Compcache didn't improve performance at all, for me at least.

What if I have a task killer app? Because running out of RAM is just as bad as having too much running...I don't have many apps as I only keep what I actually use as well.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ezterry:
I have to ask, what are you seeing as the symptom of "running out of ram" the system will always use all ram so it will always have nearly none free.

By this I of course mean what is taking forever from you the end users perspective.. from there we can tweek in the right direction or work on making the phone prioritize what is needed to be useful.

Many times people put tons of swap only to find the the problem application is still removed from ram/swap due to configuration and the system is even slower with swap.

Also before enabling swap try the settings -> adw -> system -> system persistent is enabled. (Or equivalent on other launchers)

If you really want to try swap, it wont be fast but in very little amounts
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brutuz1000and1:
Well, if I have MSN Talk open, the home screen tends to fall out of memory (Yeah, I have System persistent enabled) and Messaging is extremely slow (To the point where a letter appears a good second after I press the key), it's that kind of thing when I run certain programs, it makes it hard to have stuff like JuiceDefender running because I always run out of RAM even just running the Speedtest app then.

Hello everyone,

I'm not "dev" trying to create a ROM for cookée EKEN M001, my experience in practice on G1 (Dream) is at its peak: cool: Here is my first EKEN Relax , it is a Donut 1.6 which has increased from 127MB 65Mo after I changed, it gains speed and fluidity from the system much lighter and a significant improvement of tactile.

Installation:

You did not need to be root to flash roms on your M001, always have the EKEN connected to power during flash.

1. Download new firmware

2. Unzip and place the script folder in the root of the SD card

3. Place SD card in M001 and boot up (making sure mains power is connected)

4. Let the M0001 go through its motions to upgrade the firmware which takes about 5 minutes

5. When done take out the SD card and reboot the M0001. You will get the launcher options screen where a default can be chosen or like me you can leave the default tick box unticked and try out all the different options for a few times till you find one that you prefer.

6. Delete the script folder on the SD card either on your laptop or using the file browser on the M0001.

(Thank to mhorst)

It very fast and stable.
