Don't use Android?

I remember on my RAPH Android used to get very, VERY hot. Especially so if I turned on radios like wlan & GPS.

At any rate, this project is still very experimental. Lots of kinks to be ironed out - the devs have done a great job thus far, but they're down to the nitty gritty basically - bug squashing/discovery & optimization!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] AndroHQUist:
hmm

The way linux and other unix like os:es work is that the os usually buffers writes and perodically writes out the buffers to disk. If you run the command "sync" buffers will be written to disk. You might need to sudo..

Off course this can be changed like everything else in these OS'es.

I Sure hope you can do a full ROM out of this!

I Just installed the SuperFroyo a couple of days ago to give it a go (i had XDAndroid) and i'm literally blown away from the speed! was so not expecting it to behave that fast! :eek:

However i found a few bugs, my device is the AT&T Fuze (unlocked and all):

- Earphones not working, only the Speaker is working

- Camera (i had to say it, i know it's been reported)

- Playing Movies would not work, even when installing players from Market

- Installing Angry Birds worked, however, it would crash on starting up

- Battery reporting is wrong, i had it at 100% and when it reported 10% left, i booted and in WM it says there's still 50% battery left and it kept working.

+ Boots in less then a minute! now if only the WM could do it!

+ GPS - works, tested with Google Maps and FourSquare

+ Bluetooth works - had no problems so far

+ WiFi works - connected to my home and to work's internet

The phone didn't heat up at all, unless using WiFi which heats up WM as well. The only two things that really bug me is the Earphone, since i use my phone mostly for hearing music. And secondly, i miss my HTC Sense from the Energy ROM, it makes life so much easier then that default UI on the Android, but that wouldn't be considered a bug :rolleyes:

Anyway, awaiting your final release, keep up this amazing work!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] :
Try updating kernel from http://glemsom.users.anapnea.net/android2/

It should fix battery issue at the least.

Just wondering how you guys manage to get WiFi up on this. I would always get an error message when trying to start WiFi in android. Do I need to activate it in WM first? Tried it and worked under WM but still not Android. I think I might of messed something up when I opened my Fuze to fix my speakers which was blown out.. all in all great port tho. Would love to see more updates.

Im looking for something similar to dropbox but automatically syncs my phone with the files I upload to a site or place in a folder on my PC.

Anyone seen something like this?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shrivel:
I'm assuming you have Windows PC. I use a little free tool from Microsoft called "SyncToy." It will basically keep any two folders/drives synched. I use it to sync in the opposite direction that you are wanting (backup the phone's SD card to my PC) but it will do it in either direction (or both) if you want.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidmonkey:
I should have been clearer. Im looking for something that does this over the cellphone network (Edge/3G). Drop a file into a folder or upload it to a website, the phone syncs it automatically, similar to syncing email, etc.

As for USB to phone syncing, I use SyncBack.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Unrenowned:
Sadly, awesome drop only works one way for transfers. And it has trouble with large (10+) files.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidmonkey:
Awesome Drop is awesome but its manual in a sense that you have to enter a random key code to transfer the files. I used this for the first time the other day, very impressive. Its great for sending files to a friend with Android.

Maybe I should create my own app :)

Idea:

1. Drop some files in a folder on your desktop computer OR upload some to the cloud.

2. Phone checks that folder or the cloud for any new files. New files are synced automatically. Deleted files are removed from the phone.

3. If data connection is lost, file is resumed whenever the data connection is restored.

[Legend Android Development] Quanny2000:
If you are running a rooted stock rom, and you update via the ota, you'll lose root, and depending if they updated the bootloader with a fix to prevent rooting, rooting may be lost forever...
[Legend Android Development] danishh:
for me

1. I moved to rogers, so i wouldnt get OTA update anyways.

2. If i wanted the OTA update, the rom will leak somewhere here, rooted.

there is no real incentive for me not to root. Once HTC releases their Froyo rom, it will be available somewhere on xda, so if i wanted it i could get it.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andybones:
As for running the 2.2 RUU over stock Incredible, this will kill your ability to root, unless you run unrevoked forever before doing the RUU. you need to root using unrevoked3 to root, and then unrevoked forever to get s-off, two different things.

if you root, id still suggest s-off anyway, as you can revise it now. but once rooted, you can use a ROM based off the RUU, or run the RUU, but if you do the RUU without s-off your root will be gone,(from my understanding)

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bielinsk:
I have been getting terrible battery life since I mistakenly reset the battery statistics in recovery.

I have recalibrated my battery, but I am only getting like 8 hours.

What can I use to see what is using the battery? I think there is something in spare parts, but I am not sure what to look at there.

Any apps or methods would help me determine what is chewing it up is much appreciated.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xeren:
It could just be that your phone is incorrectly reporting how much battery life you have since you reset them, and a couple days of usage will just allow it to gather more data and get more accurate.

But if there is an errant app draining your battery, a combination of spare parts and an app called SystemPanel should allow you to narrow it down to what's causing problems.

Plug your phone in for a minute, then unplug it, let the phone sit with the screen off for 25 minutes or so, then go to spare parts->Battery History, then choose other usage and since last unplugged. The running % should be close to the screen on %. If the running % is way higher than screen on, that means something is running while your screen is off.

I paid for the full version of systempanel for the system monitoring feature, but i think you can use the free version to just check which apps are running. Things like google voice should say running, but just about everything else should say background. If you have an app that you downloaded, but haven't been using in a while saying service, there's a good chance that's what's causing your phone to run the batteries out. Garbage apps like Grooveshark (which I still use because I can't live without grooveshark) will run even after you could have sworn you closed out of them.

The paid version of systempanel makes things easier because you can set it to monitor, then come back and look at what apps have been using cpu cycles even when the phone isn't being used. The system processes are always going to use cpu cycles, but apps like Swype will (or did at one point) keep the phone from properly sleeping, and you can tell by all the cpu they're using even when the screen is off.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bielinsk:
Ah, that is a good point. 2 apps that I did change were I installed Tiger Text (neat app but rather sure that drains the juice) and I put on a different version of swype.

Thanks for the tips, I will run with that.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bielinsk:
More reading I am doing I think the mistake I made, is that I reset my battery statistics when my battery was only half full.

I put in a full battery, reset statistics, and will let it drain, that should calibrate the phone correctly.

Thanks for the tips though, I will keep those in mind.

Hi

I recently got HD2 (US) with tmobile after upgarde. My question is, "Is there any way to hide phone's identity on their website". Like for testing I checked website, it shows i am using HD2 -- then I took out the sim card and inserted in my old phone samsung katalyst...Next day i checked website it automatically changed information in my profile that I am now using samsung katalyst.

I want to know if is there any way to change some settings in phone or use some application, so when I put simcard back in HD2....It doesn't show on tmobile website, that I am using HD2. (by the way I got unlock code from t-mobile website - officially and have unlocked my HD2..if it helps to solve the question.)

[Captivate General] iceman4357:
One thing that really pisses me off is the dialer with an incomming call, while you are already on the phone with someone else. Its a pain in the ass to actually answer the call. Intead of it answering when you swipe, you have to go through 3 steps:

-Swipe

-pick end call or hold call

-swipe again to answer.

Does anyone else find this annoying? Every other phone I have ever had lets you answer the call immediately, which places the other call on hold.

I tried to search what this "answering Mode" is, and it doesnt look like its what I am after.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomertwo:
Ok so that this is up front so that everyone understands.. I do not care about root and have no plans to root this phone for a while. (This is my primary phone and I need it working and not bricked)< I have personal reasons for not wanting root at this time so please don't ask.

Now my question is the following:

If I extract the rom.zip file from RUU that was leaked yesterday will I be able to just rename the file to PB31IMG.zip and place it in the root of my SD card. Then boot into hboot and apply the update?

From the threads I have found so far on how to do this state that the phone will do a quick reboot while applying this update. This is caused by the updating of hboot from what I have see. Then I'm suppose to just tell it again to apply the update. < Is Applying the update the second time safe?

Will this work to flash my phone to the new version of the android, hboot, radio and so forth? I just want to apply the update instead of waiting days or weeks for verizon to finally push it to my phone via OTA.

I'm currently with the following settings.

S-On

Hboot .77

Stock Android 2.1 update-1(not rooted)

radio 100

Additional Information.

I've tried just using the RUU but due to driver conflicts it keeps giving me the USB error. The most I've ever gotten was the phone into the bootloader then the RUU loses connection. Tried this on 3 machines now and it still fails. And yes I've installed HTC Sync only on 2 of those 3 machines and it still fails..
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g00s3y:
To be honest, I would say just wait for the OTA, Verizon themselves have confirmed it has been/will be released today 8/27. Then there will be no worrying, since you don't want root this would be the best way.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andybones:
I'm sorry this has nothing to do with what you're asking, I've read, and don't know sorry man, but I do have a quick question for you. I see you have never rooted, or maybe or have, I thought maybe you hadn't for some reason, but anyway, I see you HBOOT it .77, how long have you had your phone since?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomertwo:
Yes I had rooted the phone recently for about 2 weeks then it got messed up but thanks to an unrevoked member I was able to recover the phone. It wasn't bricked or anything but some how the NAM was messed up which prevented me from using *228 to update roaming or my ability to activate the phone after a factory reset. I do remember it having hboot .79 before rooting though.

Update: I verified that the hboot in the stock restore img file I used had only hboot 77 in it and not 79. This means I downgraded to 77 without knowing it at first. (From the threads I have read it is stated that .77 and .79 are interchangeable so I don't think I need to worry about it when the ota comes I hope..)

I've had it for about 3 months now so I'm out of the return policy and I do like the phone and have no intention of returning it.

After trying root out for those 2 weeks I found that for me I didn't really gain anything that seemed worth it for my personal needs.

Also I like to tinker with stuff but since I'm in a 2 year contract I rather not take the risk of bricking it and having to pay for the next 2 years for service I can't even use due to my own fault of breaking the device.

Right now I'm just wondering if it is safe to apply the file that can be found in the ruu without root and without breaking the device since it has the same build number and radio number as the update that verizon has stated on the update page.

.77

I am on my third incredible, and all 3 shipped to me with v.77. Last one shipped was 8/9 (wow, maybe this one is a keeper).
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andybones:
were these all brand new phones, refurbs..?

To my understanding of this whole .77, .79 HBOOT is that these two are interchangeable and doesn't matter which one you have. I was just curious because at first I used the RUU that gave me software 1.22.605.0 and the latest is 1.22.605.2 and I never got an OTA update for the latest 2.1. but I think this is normal since the servers are doing the new thing.

and from what I think, if you had .77, and got the OTA for the latest 2.1 that came out a while ago, it kept the .77, but if you did the latest 2.1 through the RUU on ur computer instead of OTA it updated the HBOOT to .79 as well.

This is how it was with the Droid Eris with the leaks and stuff which blocked you out of root.
