Guys, it really doesn't matter about your WM/Android combo! The single most important tool for achieving better battery life is Exceller's Auto boot app! Set it to autoboot and 3secs and do a soft reset and let Exceller's auto boot app boot into Android for you! Problem solved! 3mA in airplane, 5-9mA in standby with wifi, gps, sync enabled! Been preaching this so long and seems no one listens!:rolleyes: Have tried this with EVERY build and same results. Although, stock froyo builds are slightly better on battery than sense builds; obviously.

Try to use radio 2.12.50 and above should help. There are some WinMo Tom built for android out there, any should work here is the key: make sure you reboot three times after terms fresh install, on the third time start android AS SOON AS YOU CAN in WinMo, don't let the winno fully boot up. If you don't want to do fresh install, try to change the radio and win rom, boot android as soon as you can and see if it help.

Battery life sucks with Android. That's reality. It'll suck more or less depending on the user and I'm guessing that's due to programs loaded, usage, stage of the moon, technical things like that. But in my readings it's been a constant complaint so I'd suggest either getting use to it and being patient until it's corrected or going back to WM. The chef's are working on it and I'm sure will get that answered in the near future but there's so many options and setups I doubt I'm going to get much better than I'm getting and, frankly, I like Android enough I'll put up with that til something gets fixed.

Thats just my 2c. Or whatever the Euro equivilent is.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] pretzdothack:
@reocej: Using that, and dependent on how many times I have to reboot it I still only get 7mA-10mA standby. Not using it I still get the same. In fact, when using that I experience more BSOD than normal. Don't get me wrong, 7mA is much better than the 60mA I was getting. I'm much happier. I just don't know if it can be attributed to EBL.

@ktran1588: I installed 2.12 as soon as I noticed the stock WinMo ROM I flashed re-flashed my radio. It seems to have helped.

@rogerperk: I wouldn't say that's true at all. Battery life sucks if you don't have the right combo or the right things controlling it in my opinion. Because using the MMS 3.2 Froyostone fix+ Energy ROM or even the Cookie ROM I got crap battery life. Since I switched to the setup Chiasoft is using (2.10ROM and 2.12 radio) I get pretty good battery life. I have to charge it maybe once a day for two-three hours. And that's with moderate usage.

====================================

I'm noticing a new problem however, and I wonder if it's happened to Chiasoft. I'm getting serious touch screen freezes since last night. Anytime before that the set up was working AMAZINGLY. Low battery use, rare DC's. Perfect. Best build I've used so far.

Now? It's almost unusable sometimes. This morning it was happening in Android so I switched to WinMo and surprisingly enough it happened in there too. So I read touch freezes are Radio problems mostly. Is this true? Should I switch to a new radio? I'm confused as to why it would just randomly start happening though.

Edit: I noticed that it almost always freezes when I hold down the end home button to turn off the phone or data or silence it. I can't actually use the touch screen again until I hit the button again to put it to sleep. I wonder if it's hardware related because it was happening in WinMo that way as well.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] :
Downloading the fixed froyo 3.2 now. If it works, thanks a lot!

Also, is the mario live wallpaper built in to the build? If so, how do I get rid of it? I know it's not a hassle to have it, I just don't want it.

Thanks again for the time you took to fix this build.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] :
So I downloaded and tried the moomoo froyo 3.2 fix and it seemed to fix the initial problems. Thanks for these!

Yet I don't understand. Why did you add things to it that others could've easily added themselves (mario live wall and xda app) and the start-up sound? Now the users that don't want them can't remove them. :confused:

Not to be picky or seem rude. But how do I remove those things? I like the rom normal, not with clutter I don't want/need. :(

EDIT: Holy crap at all the other added stuff. The bubble game, battery indicator, htc ime test, speed test.

I want this rom, but I don't want all that stuff.

Guess my only bet is to build my own?

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] :
Thanks but adb never lets me remount. It errors on me everytime.

I tried to fix darkstones 3.2 mms problem with what you posted on the first link. But that didn't seem to work.

Is there anyway you can help me a bit more just fixing his? Sorry to seem like a pain. But his runs fine, just the mms size is locked @ 300k.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] :
Ok. So I went over the 1st post a few times. I edited all the files in the MNS folder and copied them over with file explorer. I edited the other file too for NexusOne. Yet I still can't select "1024" for msg size. It still only has the option in mms msg for - 100,200,300. This is on froyo 3.2 from darkstone.

<item name="MMS_Msg_Size1">300K</item>

<item name="MMS_Msg_Size2">600K</item>

<item name="MMS_Msg_Size3">1024K</item>

<item name="MMS_Msg_Size_Choose">300</item>

Am I doing this wrong or what? :(
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] pretzdothack:
Okay, so now the entire adroid system is acting up mostly related to the touchscreen. Like I use the calculator and it appears that i'm holding a button down. Or I try to make a call and it's not responding. It appears that when I hit end call button repeatedly it allows me to unlock the phone. But when holding down the end call button to get to the Power Off screen nothing in that menu is responsive.

It seems... software related, but I'm not sure. Any info would be helpful. I'm going to reformat my card and reinstall droid and see what happens.

So, called t-mobile. They're sending me a new replacer phone. Oh well. We'll see how that one goes.

I see... You must have used your old data.img . Do a fresh install and most of your problem will be resolved. This happened to me before.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] :
So just delete my data image and reboot?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] pretzdothack:
All that will do is recreate the data img as if you first booted up with the bad picture quality limitations.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] :
Idk what to do then. :(
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] :
So I've ran the froyo 3.2 on 1 HD2 and your froyo moomoo 3.2 on a 2nd hd2. I've compared your files in customize with mine. Made my txt # same as yours and only left default in there. I've changed everything you stated in the 1st post.

Seems something isn't right.

No matter what I do, I can't get the 1024 option like with your build.

Is there anybody here that know what to do and that is willing to help me out? I tried to delete the img data. But that didn't work.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ktran1588:
I don't quite understand why do you try to fix the build from Darkstone. The MooMoo build is really much the same, you can just use it. To delete the apps that you don't want, like mario wallpaper, super bubble... Try downloading Root Explorer from the market, then go to "system/apps". Everthing apps should be in there just delete or add the one that you want.

Hope this help. Chiasoft already said that he changed more than just the things in the first post so I don't think you can do it yourself.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] :
I have root explorer and have tried the moomoo release. I don't want any of that stuff in there. Even his boot up wallpaper is different from stock. I don't like his start-up sound either.

I see what he changed and actually just figured it out 10 minutes ago and now have the 1024 option. He did change more than what he stated in the 1st post. But comparing files, I figured it out.

I just like stuff stock and normal. :)

And thanks to the OP for his initial post. Just wish it was a bit more thorough. :p

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] :
I've had several pm's the last few days from users asking me how to do this now that I've figured it out. When I was trying to figure it out, nobody wanted to help me. But now that I've figured it out, people want me to help them? :(

I see the OP has logged on several times since I started asking for help, I even sent him a pm asking him for help. Yet he never attempted to help. Why is that? Are people so selfish that they want to keep stuff all to themselves? Seems so.

Why doesn't the OP just say exactly how he did it so he can help all the people pm'ing me? Seems like a cool thing to do imo. :)

I mean, why make people use his patched builds?

I believe this site is here to help people out. The HD2 android community is here to make android better on the HD2. Am I right?

BTW: I'm not disrespecting the OP in any way. I think he's very smart for figuring this out.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mastajest:
I think the only step missing is that in the default.xml, you have to also change the mms user agent as well, not just the mms sizes. I, like you, had to do the file compare to figure it out. Moreover, the build.prop has some settings not mentioned in the OP. These are the ones that allow visual voicemail and myaccount to work.

On the plus side, I think you learn more that way. Even though this fix is not too difficult to apply, you have to have some basic troubleshooting, and critical thinking skills.

Personally, I think these forums are packed with too many people who are either too lazy or too used to things being done for them. They don't want to spend any time reading, and searching so they can learn. If they didn't see the answer on the first page they'll just post a new comment or create a whole new thread to ask the same question that has been asked over and over again.

After a while it gets tiring to see the same questions being asked repeatedly. So, most people stop answering them. Same way you and I figured it out, so can everyone else.

In summary, people need to learn how to use the SEARCH button.

i haven't used DroidExplorer, but if you can see the file then open it with notepad or wordpad, com.android.mms.customizationBySIM.xml is a text file.

this mod will only fix the outgoing MMS size, since the "rom" is based on a Desire rom, the phone is identified as a Desire (which TMOUS does not recognize, that is why the incoming MMS are approximately 2K). there are a few builds that are modified specifically for TMOUS and MMS works correctly.

I've been reading your thread because i'm having trouble with MMS. I'm using the following build:

[Build]Android 2.2 Build FRG33 [ mccm v1.5]and new build[mccm SE 1.0](16.9.2010) -

Combination between: My Android 2.2 FRG33 Mccm V1 + FroyoStone Sense - V2[URL]

When I receive an MMS, it comes in around 2KB or 4KB. I can't for the life of me figure out why this is happening. I've change the APN settings, etc.

I noticed you had a fix: FroyoStone_Sense_V2_MooMoo_MMS_FIX.rar - However, this would replace everything that i've put on my storage card. Trust me when I tell you this, this build is pretty sweet! I've haven't had any problems, no freezing, battery life excellent. Just MMS.

I'm hoping you can help me out. Perhaps it's as simple as replacing a few files.

I appreciate any assistance you can give me.

Dang It!

Chiasoft,

I have tried everything and then some to modify an existing build (Mdeejay Froyo Sense v. 2.1a) using Droid Explorer, but it just doesn't work!

I made all the necessary changes in both the /system/customize/MNS and the /system/etc/ directory, but the incoming MMS are still the compressed 2-3kb images.

One thing I discovered though is that when I edited the "mm_property.conf" file, it changed from "executable" to just "file" in the type column of Droid Explorer. I tried to change it to executable several times by either saving it to my desktop to make the edits and by right click the file in Droid Explorer, but nothing worked. In fact it may be a compatibility issue between Droid Explorer and Win 7 (or that Droid Explorer is still in beta and glitchy as hell), but I couldn't even save any edits when I right clicked the file.

SO, in other words can you please edit the Mdeejay Froyo Sense v. 2.1a build to correct the MMS issue?

Again, I take no credit for the ROM itself. I only modified and applied the MMS FIX as specified and Localized it for en_US (so all of us TMOUS people get the US news/weather/stocks/time setting/temp setting; instead of the UK news and such.)

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dung8604:
Maybe the chiasoft has other things going on in his life right now. And I would like to point out you are disrespecting him by implying he's selfish by not answering you back.

He shared what he thought was sufficient knowledge to get you through. Without him, we would ALL still be stuck with tiny mms. Now you see mastajest putting up patches for mdj stuff as well as cmy posting themed roms with working mms, essentially carrying on from the knowledge chia left us.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] :
You can take whatever I said as you see fit. In my mind, I never disrespected him. And anybody logging in and being in this thread since it's start, chia could've came forward a long time ago to finish telling how he did his fix. Instead, he chose to patch roms and distribute them as he wanted. Leaving people to scramble and waste time trying to fix the roms they wanted patched. :rolleyes:

Honestly, I don't like it when people figure stuff out and leave others hanging with little info and only half of the info they need to do this themselves. He didn't have to share what he did, but why only share parts of it? Kinda like a "look what I did, you can't do it. But I can fix roms for you if I want to". :(

True: We wouldn't have this fix without him. But why should we have to beg for him to show us the final touch to do it ourselves?

And I'll leave it at that.

I spent 2 days trying to figure out the rest. He could've saved me 2 days of time with typing a 5 minute post to help me out. :(
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dung8604:
Agree to disagree then. Either way, it may benefit you to create a new thread in which you explain all the steps you had to take in order to mod these roms yourself, while giving chia his due credit. It would stop people from bombarding your inbox and would be a great benefit to the xda community
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] :
K.

And tbh, it wouldn't benefit ME. It would benefit YOU and others. But not me.

As I've already benefitted. And no need to tell me who to credit. I can manage thoughts and normal brain functions on my own. I know about crediting and what not. Thanks.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] slimster:
wow...."it wouldn't benefit ME"?! really biz??.....i thought the point of this site was to help others, not "ME". agreed, info could've been shared and time could've been saved but for whatever reason he chose not to.....does that mean you have to follow the same pattern while chastising him for doing what you yourself are now doing? I believe it was actually his "little help" that got you on the right path to figure it out yourself, so some would argue that he actually DID, in fact, help you by getting you started.....what have you contributed to helping others figure it out? i was reading how he was, in your opinion, flaunting the fact that he had figured it out but after reading your posts it sounds like you are doing the same.

it is a shame that these discussions are even going on; information is to be shared and distributed freely (barring copyright yadda yadda) not with held because "he did it first, so it's ok for me to do the same". lets get back to the reason this site was created and take the higher road.

can't we all get along? :p
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] :
Cool. We can all get along. Seems everybodys knocking me though. Oh well. And if I took the the" help" he gave me and made it work. Then so can others just like I did. There you go. Good luck. ;)

And that's why I said that in my recent post. I wasn't saying it like I was out to benefit. I was saying that because dung was acting like I would benefit.

P.S. I was actually planning on making a thread to help all of you out. But seeing the responses of people against me. I think that's a negative on the whole thread thing.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] slimster:
i think "everyone" is knocking you because you are coming right out and saying you know how to fix a problem and blaming the fact that you didn't get all the help you needed as the reason why you are refusing to help others in your previous situation. if someone was to steal your wallet would that give you the right to steal someone elses and then use the platform of "well someone stole mine" to justify your actions. what was the old adage?...."do unto others". if you figured it out then good for you, but to stand on a soapbox and parade the fact that you know something others want to know makes you not only as bad but some would argue worse. you realize how unhelpful it was to you to not get any help but still feel you have validity to not help others. if everyone figured things out on their own and refused to share there would be no XDA.

bottom line is that your knowledge is yours to do what you want with and i give you a lot of credit for figuring it out on your own but i don't respect your decision to not give back to others when you know they need help no matter what your reason.

so you're gonna "take your ball and go home"? wow.....
