[EVO 4G General] erikivy:
I'm no expert but it sounds like a rogue app to me. If my phone were doing that i would wipe it and start from scratch.

Just my thoughts.......
[EVO 4G General] sombdy:
Try updating to one of the rooted 2.2 Froyo ROMs. Be sure to do a full wipe (data, cahe, dalvik-cache) before installing a new ROM, unless otherwise instructed. You're running an old software version of Eclair (current Froyo is 3.26.651.6). I've received considerably better battery life since the update to Froyo, especially with a custom ROM and custom kernel. I personally run both SetCPU and Juice Defender with no problems or any overheating issues.

Mostly it sounds like you have something locking your CPU usage at 100% which would explain the heat and battery drain. I suspect you may be having software conflicts using the old OS version. Do a Nandroid backup before flashing a different ROM so that you can rollback to your exact setup you currently have if you do not like the results of the updated ROMs.

And by all means, DO NOT flash an unrooted stock Froyo ROM (or take any OTA update). There still is no method to root that.
[EVO 4G General] Wallabe:
Yeah I have been debating the whole wipe the phone and start with the 2.2 OTA and wait till they root that. This is driving me mad, cause it's seems it knows when I need it the most. When I'm at the house it last and stay up like a champ, when I leave it starts acting up.

Which leaves me with the question how do you save the apps on your phone?
[EVO 4G General] bharris25:
Appbrain is a good way to manage apps. Any paid apps should still show up in your downloads section of the market after a hare reset. I have no battery problems with the ota 2.2 patiently waiting root. Don't know if I'll root when they do figure it out because its pretty stable with decent battery life for me.
[EVO 4G General] Wallabe:
So today is Day Two since I changed the ROM. I have notice alot has changed, some things are new, and some things are working that never work before. It's like having a new phone all over again. LOL

I also use the instructions in the thread about battery life

Edit: I can't link it due to new user access. But its in the General fourm.

15 hours and I haven't plugged it up yet to recharge it yet I still have 60% left on the battery. I made 8 phones calls that lasted 2 mins and more, plus ran the music app and more.

I want to thank you guys for your help
[EVO 4G General] SayWhat10:
Do you getting more then24 hours on a stock battery?

Do you keep 3g on and always connected checked?

You have to be a real light user
[EVO 4G General] Wallabe:
No sir.... by no means I'm I a light user. As I stated I use my phone pretty heavy and that was only day two that I done that.

Yes....I now get more then 24 hours out of the stock battery.

At 7am I unplug and jet out to work. I use my phone as a MP3 player for the car. 30 minute drive to and from. When at work I play games and make random phone calls for 9 hours of the day. SN: I'm doing my job also :) When I leave work I go to my gf's house which has no signal out there. I use to have to put it on Airplane Mode to save the battery. Now I just leave as is without changing it.

Total time using the phone in 24 hours: 14 hours

Times I charged my phone in 24 hours: 0

Battery Percent in 24 hours after 14 hours of use: 45%

Longest hours since unplugged: 2d 2h 4m 10s with a 50% life left.

Yes I keep my 3G on. I turn my GPS off and Background Data, Set the weather app or widget to update every 6 hours (Why would you need to know the weather every hour on the hour, Just press update when you open the weather app) along with other things I don't need running while I'm at work or even not using them.

This is with the OMJ Froyo 2.2 Rom update. The phone is still running smooth and as it should (in my opinion)

One minor but major problem to some I wish they would fix.

Multi-touch though out the whole phone. The Droid X, Incredible, and Nexus 1 has it.

Why can't we have it. I would be so happy if we can get that.

anyone? very distracting to have the bright letters while navigating
[Galaxy S I9000 General] heythatsmygoat:
On my I9000 I don't know how to browse webpages offline. I'm using the Dolphin Browser HD. I want my phone to prompt me and ask my permission to connect to 3g.

How do I do this?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mike.sw:
well, it's not built in, so you'll need an app for that but unfortunately I'm not familiar with such. So you can use some widget to turn on/off APN. search in the market, there are dozens of such widgets.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TeamSancheZz:
I use the data-on-demand app, it's free and works just like it should (for the galaxy s) at least.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] jestercing:
just wanted to know if anyone can make a Assassins Creed bootanimation i think that would be sweet

Thanks:)
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] es0tericcha0s:
I'll try to throw something together tomorrow morning. Just downloaded a couple of vids from Youtube to get a start on it.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] jestercing:
Awesome cant wait
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] orkillakilla:
Ill download if you make it. Assassins creed is my favorite game! Can't wait for brotherhood to come out. Already have it preordered
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] es0tericcha0s:
Getting closer here... Ended up ditching the vids I downloaded last night for part of the trailer from the upcoming Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood. Had to go through 4000+ pics to get it down to just under 300. Just need to do the desc.txt file and test it...

Also thinking of trying to add some audio too it. I haven't made any boot animations for awhile and haven't tried the audio part in awhile. I'll probably just do one with sound and one without so you can have a choice.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] jestercing:
Sounds great
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] es0tericcha0s:
Alright, so here we go: http://www.multiupload.com/61BJ6XXR2J . The audio is going to have to wait because I'm heading out to watch Inception with my girlfriend. Let me know what you think though. The timing and frame rate was pretty decent the one time I tried it, but if it needs adjusted, let me know. It isn't too hard to fix. Enjoy.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] jestercing:
dude that was pretty awesome if u want to go the the assassins creed website they have a loading screen on the website that is pretty cool maybe u can try that one too
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] orkillakilla:
How big should the file be? I downloaded it and it was 50kb and when I replaced the old one with this the boot animation just said android.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] es0tericcha0s:
Might want to download again with a different browser or upload site. Should be 2.96 or 7 MB. Can't remember off the top of my head.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] orkillakilla:
Got it working. Nice work my friend.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] es0tericcha0s:
Cool. Glad you got it worked out. The speed and length of the animation okay?
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] orkillakilla:
Yeah actually it seems to be the perfect length. Only hung at the assassins creed screen at the end for a few seconds before everything was loaded.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] es0tericcha0s:
Yea, that's how it works for me too, and was lucky because that was my goal (instead of a long looping section) and got it on the first try with just an educated guess for the FPS. I also looked into the other animation that jestercing suggested, and if it is the one I was thinking of - the interactive video - then I won't be able to use that. It needs to be a video I can download ala youtube, metacafe, google vids, etc. that I can work with. If that isn't the one you were thinking of, then please provide a link. I'm too high and feeling too lazy to play with the audio part today. Doubt anyone is real dissappointed in that. If there is significant interest then I will try to add something appropriate. Requiem for a Dream seems to be popular in youtube videos.

in amon i flash from zip i get

Install from sdcard...

Finding update package...

Opening update package...

Verifying update package...

E: No signature (294 files)

E: Verification failed

Installation aborted

what did i do wrong and how can i sign files? ive tried and tried to read up on it and everything ive read ive tried and cant even using the easy app that jcase? made
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] es0tericcha0s:
You need to make sure that the zip file is in your /system/media folder (or data/local, depending on the rom) whether via adb or root explorer.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] Funnyface19:
I tried but still couldn't but my phhone is due for a data wipe so I'll give it a try I love assassins creed preordered brotherhood and got a poster signed by all the devs!!!!!
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] jestercing:
if ur in the terminal commands:

su

cp sdcard/bootanimation.zip /data/local

reboot

thats how i did it just make sure the bootanimation.zip is in the root of the sdcard.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] synaptyc:
I took the liberty of making an animated GIF of this bootanimation.

The original has much better resolution, is a faster frame rate, and doesn't loop.

It freezes on the last frame (the second pic) until Android finishes booting.

This one will be nice with a sound file added and converted to the bootscreen style.

~Enjoy!~

[Epic 4G General] aim1126:

[Epic 4G General] entropism:
Sprint gives one employee per store a free device, called the Advocate program.
[Epic 4G General] NeonMonster:
10 days isn't too bad!

Other than the fact my Nexus will be turned off on the 24th and I'll be phoneless for about a week. :P

Reserved one through sprint, and one at RadioShack. :)
[Epic 4G General] a454nova:

Some would be pissed, like those who planned enough time to save out of their paychecks. I'm covered, they could release it in 5 minutes and I'd be there. However, I have the 31st off of work, and want to make a day out of it.
[Epic 4G General] agonzalez1010:
I'm shacked up with the Shack for mines. Was also told by the store manager he's opening up at 6am.. Woo hoo...
[Epic 4G General] NeonMonster:
OMG jealous!

I asked my radioshack when they are gonna open and said it "depends on when they get shipment." But i KNOW they will have the shipment by thursday night.

There was only one other reservation at my RS for the epic, but I'm still gonna be waiting out in front of my radioshack to open. :P
[Epic 4G General] sling:
My pre-order shack should get them in Friday evening.

Only 8 days now!

Grrrrrrr

:)
[Epic 4G General] Dman10:
I can't wait, I'm just not sure if I'll be able to fork over the cash on the 31st
[Epic 4G General] hydralisk:
7 days. Requested that day off work. I wish I had a time travel device right about now...
[Epic 4G General] radar5:
wish demand was higher to make for a Best Buy early opening. Gonna have to wait until after work to get it :-/
[Epic 4G General] NeonMonster:
Having to wait through the day is gonna be horrible! :|

I might end up being late to my first class if they don't open early but it will be WORTH it, so I can have the phone to play with all day! :P

7 days has NEVER seemed so long.
[Epic 4G General] BeerChameleon:
i wish i could of got it off. ill get off at 5 to go get it early ususally i get of 530 to 630. Good thing i dont have class that night :)

[G1 Apps and Games] sevuth:
Seems every ROM/gapps I've flashed lately has a problem saving my settings in between reboots.

The spare parts in the market doesn't have the settings I need, unfortunately.

Is there a working version I can pull from somewhere?

Currently running v7 from bens site, I believe.
[G1 Apps and Games] purplxhaze420:
go into your setting menu. go to the bottom. there should be a spareparts in there with the setting you need.
[Desire Android Development] shinobi_uk:
I've decided to release two of the ROMs I use frequently. These are pretty much the stock ROMs made by the respective owners; Adam G & Cyanogen, however i've removed some stuff that I never use.

I've added the apps+cache2sd to Cyan's ROM because it doesn't have it native yet, and I've also reintegrated Google Apps back in to save two flashes.

I symlink /etc/hosts to /sdcard/etc/hosts because AdFree can't update the file in it's default location due to rw limits on /system.

I've also added some apps that I always installed anyway, but i've put them on /data/apps so they can be easily removed if you want to.

There are two branches with essentially the same mods:

C = CyanogenMod

O = Open Desire

Current base ROMS

C - CyanogenMod 6 RC2 & DT A2SD+ v2.7.5rc2 + Google Apps re-integrated

O - Open Desire 3.4.2

Common features:

- ADW Launcher 1.1.1 as stock launcher

- Black status bar with custom full colour icons

- Icons patched in MMS, Market, GMail to work with black status bar

- "hosts" file symlinked to /sdcard/etc/hosts to allow AdFree updating

- Magic Smoke & Visualisation Live wallpapers removed.

- Amazon MP3 removed

- ProTips removed

- QuickOffice removed

- Facebook & Twitter moved to /data/app - allows easy removal

Addtional Apps - all installed to /data/app

- AdFree

- Facebook

- Twitter

- RomManager

- SetCPU 2.0.2

- Titanium Backup

- Quick Settings

TO-DO

- Optimize PNG's

- Build in interface colour change without having to import from sdcard

- Build in ADW settings

- Boot animation

- More sexy visual changes

- Make status bar battery percent less jumpy

- Fix SetCPU FC on O branch

[Desire Android Development] ShaneMacMillan:
I like the idea behind it, will give it a try. Its pretty much exactly what I did after I put Cyanogen RC2 cept I didn't bother with the App2SD.
[Desire Android Development] @ngel:
Sounds interesting mate, I gave a look to CyanogenMod' ROM some weeks ago and I loved it, but I can't live without A2SD+.

Thank you. :)
[Desire Android Development] schiznik:
Hmmm.. I've been waiting for old school a2sd in cyanogen.

Will give it a try (besides, you'll probably get me fired if I dont :p)

EDIT:

The cyanogen one worked nicely, abeit a tad slower in quadrant than OD 3.4.2

Not sure if adfree is working, as I'm seeing ads in things that I dont get ads in in OD

nandroided back to my modded OD, although I did flash your font over afterwards ;)
[Desire Android Development] ShaneMacMillan:
Install went fine with no issues. Quite impressed with it. Good job.
[Desire Android Development] shinobi_uk:
LOL stop reading XDA and close tickets ;-)
[Desire Android Development] jchoong:
I just flashed the cyanogen based version. Very, very nice; working well for me. But seems heavy on battery. Thanks a lot.
[Desire Android Development] shinobi_uk:
Strange, i had it running ALL night playing MP3's and its only dropped to 60%.

Also there shouldn't be any difference between this and the original ROM as i've not tweaked them power usage wise.
[Desire Android Development] shinobi_uk:
Did you add /sdcard/etc/hosts? It's present on mine when I flash, i might have to add one to the ROM to make the symlink work. Did it write one to your card?

The font rocks doesn't it :-)
[Desire Android Development] jchoong:
I just noticed that the battery indicator does not drop gradually; it drops in steps of 20%. After a full charge, it stayed on 100% for quite a while, and then it dropped straight to 80%. This led me believe the Rom was eating up the battery.
[Desire Android Development] shinobi_uk:
Ah yeah I noticed that too, I'm going to update the battery graphics today and hopefully fix that. I'll put a patch as well as a full build for both as I'm updating some of the built-in apps too.
[Desire Android Development] istreen:
I am waiting your rom based last "OpenDesire v3.5.0", but I prefer a Mod for only update AOSP.

Wait & see
[Desire Android Development] schiznik:
I'm not sure if it did create a hosts file or not, guess I'm just used to dnlgee's hosts file that's in od :p

I've picked your rom apart, and made a zip that'll add the bits I want from it to flash over od (just the font and a few command line utils that are in cyanogen but not od). Let me know if anyone wants it uploading somewhere
[Desire Android Development] shinobi_uk:
You can wang it on my dedi if you like and link it here, i'll sort out access for you.

I'm going to do 3.5.1 tonight, if I can get the sodding framework-res.apk to recompile after i change it, grrrrrr.
[Desire Android Development] schiznik:
Here y'are, its "signed" but my first attempt at signing failed, so needs the verification turning off in clockworkmod..

(and its OD 3.5.2 now....)
[Desire Android Development] shinobi_uk:
Yeah u built a rom based on 3.5.2 last night and so far loving it. Have u compiled framework-res.apk and if so what did u use?
[Desire Android Development] schiznik:
Lol, didn't do anything of the sort, just copied stuff from /system into a new zip. It doesn't (I hope) touch the framework at all.
