I let the thing drain until it turned off, then turned it back on and drain some more then charged it while it was off when I first got it.. should I get a new battery because right now I can barely last 8 hours with set cpu and all the stuff.. Ive done many calibration things but no change..

I think it's unlikely you ruined your battery but it couldn't hurt to swap it out at a Sprint store, I'm sure they would do that for you
[EVO 4G General] Crossrocker:
Is it free?
[EVO 4G General] nebenezer:
If you have insurance, yes
[EVO 4G General] Crossrocker:
Ill just buy one. Thx
[EVO 4G General] SharkUW:
Getting the battery to too low of a voltage can damage it, yes. It's unlikely you actually managed that though.

Hi.

I looking for the best 6.5 and 6.5.3 build (fast with good mem-mgnt (gwes)).

I tested 21908 but it's not good (it's mixed, imo).

Thank's in advance for any opinion or reply.
[Windows Mobile] DJGonzo:
I use 23563 and everyone says my ROM is fast.

Wild Child (who basically helps me out in everything) says 6.5.5 is no good. I guess it comes down to preference and EXT stability.
[Windows Mobile] v-b-n:
IMO ... there is nothing like a "best" build of 6.5 and 6.5.x

I use the latest that comes out ... although I feel the newest 6.5.x are almost at par with the 6.5 in terms of performance and memory mgmt, battery, etc.

PS : At present I am using 24623, 23129 (6.5.x) and 21914/5 (6.5)

Hi there, desperate dutchman here!

I´ve been searching like crazy to get my problem solved. Uptill now everything was working fine!

Getting this error with every build I've tried (Mattc 1.5(b), Xcelsior, Darkstone, shubCRAFT)

Right after booting up, I get the notification that the SIM-card has changed. When clicking on the notification I get this message:

I keep getting this error message: sorry the application com.android.settings stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.

I get the same message when I go to Settings -> Wireless & networks -> Mobile networks -> Access Point Names

I can't get 3g working this way.

Thing's I've done:

Task 29 and reflash ChuckyDroid (most recent ROM)

Format SD card (using Windows Vista: fat32, allocation size: default, not quick)

RADIO: 2.10.50.26

HSPL: 2.08

I only have a folder called "Android" on the SD-card.

PLease help me out. I've been reading like every single topic on this forum and still no answer :'(

thanks in advance

Ok this is weird. I just replace ChuckyDroidROM with Energy barebone:

http://hotfile.com/dl/60712595/1d3e34f/Energy.Leo.21911.Barebones_WM_Build.For.Android.7z.html

Rebooted, started Android, got the same error when clicking on the notification about having changed my SIM-card. Same message when I want to select an APN.

BUT, when I check "Mobile network" it doesn't fail anymore! Well, it goes on and off, and on and off, and then it stayed on (for 5 mins now...)

Still, need someone who can explain this to me/us

Try Radio 2.12.50.02_2. What class is your microSD?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dusdus:
Class is 6, 8 gb, have tried a lot of build with them, also with my current radio (2.10.50.26) and different kernels. Never had any trouble.

Maybe I should try another kernel? I'm looking for a way to start analysing this error: is it kernel related, or module related, hardware, rom, radio?

Installing Energy's bareboneROM suggests it has something to do with the rom. But birkoff didn't make any great changes to his rom (the version before the on of 16th august worked fine), only another Droid-loader.

'G' works great. '3G' goes on and off all the time. 'H' too..

So I went to 'networks' (Netwerken) --> 'Mobile networks' (Mobiele netwerken) --> 'Netwerk mode?' (Netwerkmodus) and turnt it to 'only GSM' (Alleen GSM).

So now I got only GPRS and no 3G/H. But got a steady connection.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] cezuk:
I have no idea why, but using a program like "APN Backup" (free on marketplace) to delete all the APN records seems to fix the error. Only thing is you need to make sure you have the correct APN settings to re-enter for your provider, otherwise you'll lose your data connection. I can't for the life of me remember where I found the APN details I needed though... I'm sure it was on XDA.

If you do use APN backup, remember to back them all up before you delete them - so if it all goes wrong you can restore it back to how it was.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jigners:
a bit of a niggle but not a problem, unless someone can relate this to the current problems facing us atm. like screen freezes, delay in waking up etc.:p
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] _tangent:
Well, it's more than just a niggle for me, because the proposed fix breaks sound, and after a restart it always goes back to FCing on the APN settings page and data calls not working. So I can either have sound or data, but not both :P

But i take your point, it's hardly widespread, and there are non-sense builds (like shubcraft, which i'm using atm and is awesome) which don't exhibit the problem. Wonder if it is a sim card issue though. Are the other people who've experienced the bug UK T-mo users like me?

I have same issues, with most of the froyo sense roms.With basic rom without senese i dont have this error.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] _tangent:
Update: Unfortunately not even this worked for me! First tried the backup->delete->restart->restore->restart but the settings page still FCd.

Then i installed root explorer and replaced the telephony db with the file you provided in that thread, then restarted the phone, but still no luck.

Seems determined not to work. Back to shubcraft i go :D

EDIT: OK, looks like i spoke too soon! The phone still FCd if i followed the notification about sim card having changed, and it still FCd if i tried the htc setup wizard, but if i navigate directly to the APN menu under settings, hey presto, i have three valid entries :D I doubled checked, and both data and sound work. Just restarting the phone to see whether the "sim card changed" notification comes back and the problem re-emerges...

EDIT2: Annoying "Sim card changed" notifcation came back, and sure enough FCd if i clicked on it, but data calls still work and the APN settings page is still fine. Just have to put up with the notification every-time i rr. Many thanks for the help Rogerek!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] kruithofm:
Hi,

I have the same problem as all of you, I'm beginning to think that the problem lies by the provider updating your provider network settings or the sim itself witch breaks the telephony.db.

When I use Vodafone NL I get the error, When I use KPN NL it does not!

The problem is I don't know how to make Android block the updates to telephony.db and create a good one by hand.

remembe... it is a hunch

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] birkoffsjunk:
^^^ This does fix the issue, just don't use APN Backup to restore as all you'll be doing is restoring the corruption back into 'telephony.db'.

Here is what I did:

Use APN Backup to Backup current settings - a just in case measure

Replace 'telephony.db', I used Root Explorer

Restart your phone, and boot back into Android

Open APN Settings page

Now Reset to Defaults

It's just called 'nandroid' in the root of your sd (fat patition), and contains several sub folders. If it's not there, it ain't there. If you partitioned after making a backup all files on your sd will be gone because they were formatted during the process.

[Droid Incredible General] KGBxxx:
Got a question to which I haven't been able to find the answer to. I'm switching from an 8gb to 16 gb sd card on a rooted dinc with s-off, 2.5 radio and stock 2.1 rom. Do I need to root again or will the phone read the card and everything is the same?

Also, had anyone tried a 32 gb card.

Thanks
[Droid Incredible General] rdmerck:
32GB card is definitely great, I love mine!

As far as swapping, if you have done the unrevoked3 method of rooting then you are fine. The original root method left busybox on the sdcard, in which case it just needed to be swapped over. But now, you're golden.
[Droid Incredible General] htc_woe_is_me:
Where is busybox located on the sd card?
[Droid Incredible General] rdmerck:
If you rooted by using the race condition (where you had to use a loop batch and pop in/out your memory card) then busy box will be on /sdcard. If you used unrevoked3 then it is internally on your phone.

Either way if you are rooted, I'd recommend the busy box installer app from the market. It keeps it up to date for you :-)
[Droid Incredible General] KGBxxx:
Nice. Thanks guys. Might go pick up a 32gb instead of a 16gb.
[Droid Incredible General] tchebb:
I believe that the original root's update.zip copied busybox from the SD card to the filesystem.

It's just /sdcard, not /system/sdcard

[General Topics] sj_martin:
I've heard so many different answers over the years about charging, draining, cycling etc.

For the most part I guess it comes down to ni vs li.

For this discussion i'd like to keep it purely in regards to lithium batteries.

- Do batteries have a limited life cycle?

e.g. X number of charges.

- Is it ok to do half charges if we don't have time to fully charge to 100%?

- Is it ok to keep your battery plugged in at all times as you are using it?

e.g. When i'm at work all day I leave my phone out on the desk and use it as a clock/notification screen. When I'm at home I do the same. The only time I take it off the charger is if I am not at work or at home. So the battery could be connected for a good 20 hours at a time while constantly being used.

- Is it best to use the phone until the battery is completely depleted and shuts off automatically?

- What types of patterns degrade the life of the battery quicker?

- How can we prolong the life out of our batteries in terms of charging?

e.g. use ac over usb.

- Is it ok to use chargers that have a lower voltage rating than the native charger?

- What risks do you run from using cheap no name chargers?
[General Topics] sj_martin:

[General Topics] Mithent:
http://www.batteryuniversity.com/parttwo-34.htm

So, in response to your questions:

Yes, they have a limited life span - they will degrade after a certain number of charge/discharge cycles, and they also degrade over time even if not used.

As there is no memory effect, I don't anticipate there being a problem from half charges.

Barring the unlikely possibility of the AC adapter malfunctioning, there is no harm in leaving the phone plugged in.

It is best to top up the charge whenever possible. It has a negative effect on battery life to run down lithium ion batteries to run them down to flat, although it's worth doing occasionally to calibrate digital battery gauges.

Frequent full discharge cycles, excessive heat and high battery load reduce battery life.

I'm not certain if USB is better or worse than the AC adapter, but as USB only puts out 500mA and AC adapters may be capable of more, USB may be slightly gentler on the battery but take longer to charge?

I wouldn't recommend using different voltage chargers, but I don't know about this specifically. USB and most AC adapters for phones provide 5V. Certainly don't use one that puts out a higher voltage. A lower voltage may not be able to charge the battery properly.

I don't know about cheap adapters. If they provide reliable output that matches what your device requires then there should be no problem; if they don't, then that could cause issues.

[Captivate Accessories] pantyryder69:
I got a small scratch/paint chip on the black plastic near the usb port does anyone have any ideas on how I can fix this? I was thinking of using black nail polish.

Any other ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks!
[Captivate Accessories] skylarscar:
Couple questions: is it on the rim of the charging port? I got one from removing my charge cable at an angle and it twisted and gouged the plastic on the way out, which leads me to my next question, is it deep? Like is it superficial or is it more like missing the gloss finish and possibly some plastic?

A usful product to have for glossy finishes is Displex, it works amazing on this phone. I am incredibly anal about high gloss finishes and blemishes showing up on them, even if i can only see them in direct sunlight. If you use this product with a cotton swab and gently but firmly rub in a circular pattern the scratches will go away very quickly, if you do it too much or too forcefully you may cause a bit of a clouding effect you can notice in strong light, so just do it for about 30 seconds and wipe it clean with a micro fiber cloth and do a little more, you should need a pea sided drop altogether, this will last for quite a while, just make sure you squeese the tube up and down to kind of mix it if it's been sitting a while. If the blemish is more of a gouge and not a fine scratch then this wont work as well, what it does is polishes the edges of the scratch down and fills in the bottom of the scratch with what's being polished smooth, so it works wonders for small problems, with larger issues you'll end up with a smooth ripple in the plastic as it will wear the hard edges down but obviously won't rebuild what's missing. I was reluctant to use it on my captivate cause it didn't do squat to my htc pure, but it performed remarkably on my captivate, just be methodical about how you use it and when you're done and your scratch is gone to your satisfaction be sure to put a little(and I mean little) on your micro fiber cloth or incredibly soft rag and buff over the area back and forth in one direction, for me that helped eliminate any cloudy effect and polish it back to a brand new phone shine. Just go into Google shopping and search for Displex, it's very inexpensive.
