[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hazard99:
what rom are you running? I am using shubcraft 1.5 and mine charges to 99% And I can get a full day out of my battery with pretty decent use.

Are you using setcpu cause that could have a major impact also do you have wifi,gps or bt on. I know gps has been known to cause some major drain while in sleep mode.

There is also a thread where people are trying to find solutions to the high amount of drain in the development forum.

We use current widget to create a log and monitor Our drain. You should be seeing less than 10ma while sleep I usually see between 3-7ma while sleep

Funny how when you are watching your battery it drains faster. When you are watching the clock time goes slower.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] faisalee:
You can look at this thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=770903

It was very helpful for me to identify how much current is being used while in sleep mode and active.

Download "current widget" from market and monitor your current supply for 30 minutes during your phone's screen is off.

Yeah with the screen off you cant see any thing :p but thankfully the log will be written for the current widget every min.

If your current comes out to be bellow 10ma during this time then you are doing good and should last you one day of usage else you need to pinpoint what is drinking all the juice even while your phone sleeps :)

Read the thread ALL OF IT, it will help you understand better.

Cheers.

alright thanks for all the help guys, the battery drain actually worked although i felt strange doing it, but still my android life isn't so great, i would love for it to work completely though because the only wquivalent option on my carrier is the Captivate (Galaxy S) and that thing is ugly compared to the HD2
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] rshunev:
such problem

I have such problem with battery drain under WM, after i run and quit android, but i found a solution, just pull out your battery few times next just recharge it and it will be OK :).
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iveco420:
Has anyone had or is anyone having problems with Co-Pilot, I did an upgrade to the latest version and now it makes up its own routes, for example I don't even have to get to a motorway Junction anymore as my Co-Pilot tells me its ok to turn Right across the motorway, through a field or two and arrive at my destination quicker, whoo whoo, only problem is the Armco barrier in the centre reservation, the odd fence and driving through a field can get my car dirty. I phoned ALK and they gave me a Fix, sadly that still isn't working,:eek:

I have always had a few niggely problems and am disappointed with the customer service, when I upgraded to version 8 there were lots of things promised on the web site, such as POI's, Themes, 3D Buildings and lots more, the reality is they are not available so I feel its a bit of a con to advertise something that is blatantly not true. :mad:
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] NyxxSin:
Alright heres the deal, I'm using a usb connect with the app PdaNet to use the internet on my laptop. Now it says in their FAQ that I can use my Xbox on the same network by just enabling Internet Sharing on Windows over the PdaNet connection to share it with my game console. I did that, but when I went to start a game it kicked me off Live. But Live works fine when I'm in the dash. So I figured I try rooting my phone so that I could use the ad-hoc network that I have set up already between my comp and xbox. Only problem is that PdaNet says. "However if you want to connect your computer to your phone using (ad-hoc) WiFi, then this will require hacking the Android system for root access. For that reason we do not enable this feature in the Android version of PdaNet." So I need to find a way around this. Any ideas?

How much hdd disk space is required?

Last time I tried with a 8 GB disk image on virtual box and run out of space while syncing repo!
[Nexus One Android Development] jlevy73:
A lot is required. I haven't built it in a while but I suspect it close to 8GB.
[Nexus One Android Development] mikroN1:
Thanks for this man. Last time I tried this with Virtual Box I could never get my phone detected in ADB. Going to give this a whirl today.
[Nexus One Android Development] clustered:
thanks dude for the tutorial! luv it!
[Nexus One Android Development] lhurtado:
Hi, just a couple corrections:

To set PATH, you wrote gedit .basrc, should be gedit .bashrc

To set repo, you wrote mkdir -p ~/bin/repo, should be mkdir -p ~/bin

btw, thanks for this tutorial!
[Nexus One Android Development] houmles:
My cyan-froyo source have 6.1GB now without any modification.

[Nexus One Android Development] samir5421:
thanks, editing now :D
[Nexus One Android Development] samir5421:
first, make sure that your phone is connected, and if you are using a virtual machine, mounted with the program and make sure that you restarted your computer. If that doesn't fix it, then your problem is with the rules. Try reading the other two links I wrote to read.
[Nexus One Android Development] predator290:
awesome guide

thanks alot for the guide. big help. although the line "make -j`grep 'processor' /proc/cpuinfo | wc -l` CYANOGEN_WITH_GOOGLE=true otapackage" # Not working right now. It says that on the cyanogen wiki. also how do you go about adding your own stuff to the builds you make?
[Nexus One Android Development] mikroN1:
Phone is connected and shows up under USB Devices in VirtualBox. Also the two links you supplied for the ADB section both don't work. I tried changing my idVendor but still can't get it to detect my phone.

If nobody has heard there is a hack for ps3 which allows you to run homebrew and install and run games to/from the internal HDD and external USB.

There was some company selling some device for a ripoff $150 and now since they started that the source code got out and others have duplicated this to run on different USB developer boards and now on a cellphone, the N900 and also I heard someone got it working on a Palm Pre..

Anyone wanna give it a shot to see if it works?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] rice247:
There was a post somewhere on psx-scene that someone was working on a Android port and I think a psp port.

Would be pretty sick if it does get ported to Android and if we can use our phones to store backups.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] pimpindexter:
The port to Android will just allow u to run and install the backup app. From there on u can back up and play your games off the ps3 hard drive.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] nfcrockett:

[Captivate General] toawkanavngthded:
im debating between the two tools to use when i get my captivate on thursday... i know compared with the two, there is some that has features than the other.... what would u recommend and what did u use?
[Captivate General] Smallsmx3:
Sre. It has OC and a better tether option. Even better would be to use the new hybrid Rom with unhelpfuls kernel. No need to lagfix
[Captivate General] toawkanavngthded:
thanks! i was kinda leaning toward sre! is it really easy to install? i mean ive read the directions and all and looks and sounds easy... i have mac would that make it an issue? it says to use titanium backup before... sorry for the noob question but where can i get the titanium backup?

edit: so i need to root first then do the sre?
[Captivate General] Rhiannon224:
Once you get your Captivate get Ryan's One Click lag fix and use it only to root your phone. Then you will have Super user permissions, next step would be Titanium Backup available on the market which you need root to get. Next step get ROM Manager donated version off the market and use Clockwork mod recovery through ROM manager to always perform backups before flashing new ROMs or Kernals. Yes, SRE is easy to install. The only trouble you will run into is Odin one click is for windows systems not Mac so you will probably need to have acccess to a windows based pc if you ever eff your phone and need to flash back to stock.
[Captivate General] Rhiannon224:
edit: so i need to root first then do the sre?

You should root first so that you have ROM manager and Titanium to back up before flashing SRE. One Click lag fix on the market will do this for you, but only use it for rooting not the lagfix. Tatuyama's ext4 lagfix is better imo.

Unhelpful's Kernal is included in SRE, fyi.

The new hybrid ROM still has some bugs and SRE is as good, imo.
[Captivate General] toawkanavngthded:
thank you for ur response! it was very helpful! what if i use parallels and run win 7 and use SRE? if not then i guess i have to use UTB??
[Captivate General] Dani897:
Nope, just an update.zip check the developers section. Super easy and no more odin needed unless you need to revert to stock first
[Captivate General] novajustin:
i'm running the non overclock version of sre and the tatayuma ext4 lag fix. so far has been very stable. i'm very happy with the combo.
[Captivate General] toawkanavngthded:
so odin is basically a "factory restore?" and can odin be used only on windows based computers? so once i get my captivate i can go straight into SRE?
[Captivate General] novajustin:
odin is a program that will apply factory firmwares to your phone. so whether you want to restore to stock or try some of the newer leaked firmwares available, odin is the tool to use. and as far as i know it is for pc only.
[Captivate General] toawkanavngthded:
thank you for clarifying. so it is only windows based? parallel's might not work? well i hope when i do run SRE, i will be good! im not really into modifying the phone heavily. just wanna run SRE cuz it sounds very promising and helps make the device run smoother.
[Captivate General] novajustin:
i am currently using the non OC version of sre along with the tatayuma ext4 lagfix and i am very happy with it. everything has been very stable thus far.
[Captivate General] toawkanavngthded:
can u provide me to the right place for the tatayuma ext lag fix? so why aren't u using the OC version of sre? so u applyed the tatayuma then sre and ur good?

edit: nvm i found the tatayuma... just dont know what to use!!! theres quite a few to choose from!!! how did u all manage to choose the right one???
[Captivate General] novajustin:
the tatayuma works very well with sre. the order i went in was flashed to stock rom->flashed sre->installed lagfix. i didnt want to go with the oc version because i think the phone is fast enough as it is and really what is another 200mhz going to do to this phone? as for the lagfix, i went with the ext4 as it has been proven to be more stable than the ext2. for me i am more concerned with reliability over power/speed. overclocking means more heat and more power being sucked out of the battery and we all know this battery is quick to die.

You cant delete the lockscreen in AOSP ROMs the way you can in a Sense ROM. Its not an .apk, its built directly into the framework.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J.L.C.:
In doing some ROM shuffling, I noticed that some have the Captain's Log notification (I use it for one email account), some ROMs don't have it.

So, I want to pull it from one of the ROMs that has it included - but I can't find it anywhere!

I've searched through /system, /system/media, /system/media/notifications, etc.

It doesn't appear to be in any of those directories, but it shows up in the list of notifications.

Does Android store these anywhere else??
