[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rigman:
Twice now while booting up an error message had been displayed on my screen saying "unable to start processing system. Force close or wait?". The phone appears to be locked.

First time, the phone was powered off and had been charging all night. All I did was turn on the phone and the error message appeared half way thru boot. I had to pull the battery and it booted fine the next time.

2nd time I was in clockworkmod and had done a nandroid backup and was just rebooting. That time I just tried holding down volume and power and it rebooted without having to pull the battery.

Anyone know if this is a hardware, rom, kernel, or radio issue?

The same exact thing happened to me last night. Everything was fine after battery pull...i posted a question about this in the q&a forum.. is it possible there's too much voltage on boot up after charging all night with the phone off?

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mac11700:
You know..with me being new at anything dealing with a Android phone,can sometimes be a real PITA...:D

I had a problem with starting Launcher Pro. I did everything I could to use it but no matter what I did I couldn't access it. I was pretty sure I had to change the defaults to do this,but everything was grayed out so I couldn't. I PM'd the Impaler747 who has helped me and others like me out several times ( Thanks Bro ) and he confirmed the defaults had to be cleared..and suggested the normal approach to doing so,which was

so I knew I was on the right track..but still couldn't clear the defaults..I knew I had it loaded..hell I even downloaded it to my PC then copied it to my SD..but I just couldn't change the defaults in ADWLauncher nor could I access the LP settings..

So..I headed to the LP forum and started researching

as I should have first before bugging folks with NooB questions :o

..and low in behold a few others had similar issues..The problem was the given answer "Use Home Switcher" which will allow you to clear the defaults and go back to being able to switch between ADWLauncher and LauncherPro doesn't work with Froyo 2.2...So..figuring I had to find something else to work with CyanogenMod-6 V6.0.0-RC1 which is 2.2, I headed to the Apps market and listed right below HomeSwitcher was the answer to my needs..ClearDefaultHome..this little free app does 1 thing and 1 thing only and that is to allow you to clear the defaults and switch..No more problem

So..I guess many of the old timers here are probably thinking.."what a dumbass" ..and that's ok..cause I'm still on the bottom of the learning curve,like a whole bunch of folks about these..but I just thought I would pass this on just in-case some other newbie like myself was having similar issues..

So..to all the Newbies like myself..when things go wrong..Don't Panic..most all of the answers are available..just think it through..and go look for folks having similar problems..and what they did to fix them..Most of the time..along with a dash of common sense will get you through..;)

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unCoRrUpTeD:
Go back into manage applications and depending on what launchers you have you need to find the one you are currently using; sense, launcher, adw and then clear default. Or you can do a search on xda for home selector and download and install on your phone. Once done open the app and choose which launcher you want.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mac11700:
That's the way it is supposed to work..but it would not allow me to clear the defaults..That's why I was having a problem...and went looking for a solution to fix it...It's all fixed now as I said before..but Thanks anyway for your suggestion..

Mac
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unCoRrUpTeD:
HaHa!!!

See what happens when I don't read the entire post. I was using the app you mentioned, but think I found another one that is like Home Selector which lets you choose your default launcher. Does cleardefaulthome do that or just clear the default launcher until you press the home key?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mac11700:
It clears all th defaults so you can choose either one..That's all it does..It makes fixing a simple mistake..well just as simple..;)

Mac
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AxillaXVII:
The most effective way to change your default launcher is to physically uninstall ADWLauncher and push the Launcherpro.apk into your /system/app/ directory via adb. Firerat posted a very clean and effective method of doing this on the Cyanogenmod forum boards. If someone happens to have a link please post it. Remember as always nandroid first before screwing around with your system files.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mac11700:
While this may truly be a effective way of doing this,it isn't for the majority of folks like myself that have never or rarely ever use any type of command line prompt in a terminal window.

While I do understand the need to learn how to do this when working with these phones,especially while changing things around on them,for some of us finding a easier solution without a steep learning curve is really the fastest way of effecting the changes we need. Hence..the reason of my post to give a easy solution to those needing one.

Here is a posted review I found today of what I used to fix my problem..

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] user7618:
I think I see what the issue was. You were trying to use launcher pro, right? If I read that right, you were. Clearing the defaults in the app you were trying to use would do no good, even if you could. You needed to clear the defaults in ADW, not launcher pro. Then mash home to get the dialog box.

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mac11700:
I couldn't clear the defaults from either unfortunately.In ADW the clear default button was grayed out...and even though I had LP loaded..I couldn't open the program..even when I completely un-installed it from the phone and re down loaded it and re-installed it. That what was freaking me out :eek: I pulled the battery..re-booted several times...and was just about ready to start from scratch.. Luckily it didn't get that far and found the right app to fix the problem..;)

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rosco2036:
Im new to the scene, got my Desire about a week ago and have been trying to find a rom to stick with, having tried about 5 so far (mixture of sense and non sense). I'd prefer a non sense rom like OD or CM but i have a major issue which there may be a fix for but i cant seem to find any help on it.

I've found that only the sense roms allow me to dial a number directly from the body of an email. i.e when i press a number is launches the dialer with the number entered but with non sense roms e.g. OD or CM nothing happens when i press the numbers.

My first question is

Is there something that can be done to allow this to happen in the non sense roms,? i.e a mod, app, hack.

Or is anyone able to tell me which component of the sense rom allows this to happen? is it the sense ui itself? the htc dialer, etc.

any help would be greatly appreciated.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Febag92:
Well, that is basically it.

I used CM RC1, RC2 and RC3, and on all of those I could change back to the stock Launcher just by copying it to the system/app folder and rebooting after.

But now I can't.

I really miss the nice stock app drawer of the Nexus One, does any one knows how to use it on IDW? Or at least how to change back to the Stock Launcher on CM6 Stable.

Oh, I also tried to copy to the System/app folder and delete the IDWlauncher. Well, that just made my phone stuck on the bootanimation.

Thank you all in advance.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ICO187:
2 days after i installed the GPS software & a few Apps etc.

my JPEG & 3GP stop working on my HTC Desire phone.

i just spent 3 days (long days & nights) trying to nutter/work out why my JPEG & 3GP stop working on my HTC Desire phone.

i was looking at my pics & the pic screen frozen had to pull the battery to turn off & back on.

after half a day passes i went into the JPEG tile screen & it was black tiles/squares (filmstrip & slide show screens all ok) but i tap on the squares/tiles the pic would show up BUT not pinch expand with my fingers HMmmm

so i replaced my pics & some show & some come up as no image

install pics working so check my video's can not play

uninstall video's re install. some show some not. getting pissed off swearing at the pc as W7 does the usual "not responding" as i'm trying to do things.

wife ducks for the kitchen i'm ready to put my fist through the screen with lots of aussie language :mad::mad:

unplug USB cable check again 1/2 1/2 working :(

start again delete all pics & video's & uninstall all i put on Apps , GPS etc

so again i individually install each JPEG (30 pic's) which involved connecting USB & disconnecting USB with each one.

almost all on 1 not working delete it & put that one back on. all good

now 3GP (10 video's)

same install the video's individually - USB plug up , unplug , plug up & on & on & on (& play each one after unplugging to see if it works) almost done about 2 to go.

i'll just check the pics none working again almost throw the phone across the lounge. :mad::mad:

WTF is going on :confused:

well it must be the GPS or Apps etc i put on that same day i'm thinking or a virus HMmmm

do a virus scan all good

this all happened after i installed below

the GPS software on my phone HTC Desire 32GB Micro SD & my wife's HTC Hero 8GB Micro SD.

also on mine i installed

BUUF icon pack , home theme's , clock , skins , keyboard etc

more JPEG pics

screen always on App

i'm thinking why my phone & not my wife's ? must be the Apps & BUUF software.

NOT the GPS software i'm thinking as my wife's has it & her's is ok.

so i removed all above what i recently installed except the GPS.

GPS working (no pics or video's installed or above apps etc)

well this explains what caused it: http://androidforums.com/android-lou...b-microsd.html

tonight i installed my 8GB SD

installed all my pics & video's copy past all in one hit like should be able to do.

jason supplied me with a new GPS Activation key for this SD & everything is working

SO FAR :rolleyes:

might try a 16GB Micro SD see what happens :p

i like a KINGSTON 32GB Micro SD but at $90Aud & maybe stuff it :o

Sorry all if this has been touched on but I'm at work right now and the search on the app isn't the same as the full sites. Anyway, I first ran into this issue on listybs nomsensikal 4.6 and now I'm kaosfroyo v32 and when I open gps and type on the address, it begins to load but freezes on the screen where it loads the route but isn't actually navigating..It just keeps searching for gps...after about thirty minutes if finally starts telling me how to get where I am going...i think my issue may stem from TransparentKaos as I used this on both roms and hadn't had issues before flashing it, if anyone has got two cents to throw my way it would be appreciated.

edit- it's definitely not transkaos, which is a relief cause i love the theme but i'm still not sure why this is happening to me, i've done a full wipe and reinstalled the rom but still not picking up the gps signal consistently, randomly it will work right away but mostly waiting for at least 20 minutes before it finds it...not sure whats up

Easiest on the battery? I love sky raider and that's what I'm using. I've restarted my phone fully charged 4 hours ago and now I'm down to 15% battery life. I'm very disturbed by this. I made a few phone calls, surfed the market, searched the web for phone listings, used my tapatalk, and took a few photos, but goleee!! 15% after 4 hours?! Sheesh! I tried recalibrating my battery updating the kernel, (runing kingx2). I'm seeing on youtube and here on the forums about people boasting about their improved battery life but I just can't seem to keep up. As I'm typing I've bumped down to 12%. This is ridiculous. Any suggestions?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ksidirt:
Uhmm. Well, the ROM has almost no affect on battery life. Battery is mostly used by Radio and kernels.

You need to give us more information.

Are you Over Clocking/Under Clocking?

What Radio do you have installed?

Are you using an Auto-killer?

Have you ever tried to bump charge your phone?

Did you clear your battery stats after a full charge, then reboot?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angryspoon:
I think its kind a funny you even have to bump charge in the first place. I still am amazed that my Droid 1 gets 20 hours+ of battery life and my Droid Incredible is lucky to get 6 hours.

I am on UD 8.0 right now trying it out as Skyraider destroyed my battery.

Do you have to bump charge every time or just once?

Does reseting your battery stats fix anything?

What ROM + Kernal would you recommend for good battery life?

I am on radio 2.15 no auto killer.

I do clear battery stats after full charge then reboot.

I do power down the phone to get that additional charge it makes a slight difference.

I have the slightest idea what bump charging is. School me brother.

Is that the BFS #2? If so, I'm at a bit of a loss, but it's worth mentioning that overclocking is pretty harsh on the battery. I underclock.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] R1lover:
From my experience the rom does have an effect on battery.... there are many things in the rom and how it's setup that do in fact effect the battery usage.

With that said, stay away from cut, copy and paste roms like UD.... pure trash.

I'm getting about 10-16 hours from my inc with minimal usage. Running froyo 2.2 latest leak with the latest radio.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrazyJek:
That is your problem right there. Aggressive auto killer? Jesus every time you do anything with your phone, whether it be starting a new app, sycning your gmail, or even turning your phone off, your CPU is going full blast overclocked killing every possible app and service. This will drain your battery. I bet it is the main cause. I bet that your task killer is killing an app or service, the app is restarting itself, and it kills it again... therefore draining all your battery.

But then again... if this didnt happen before, then i dont know. I still think task killers should be used very minimally only when your phone is running really sluggish and you know you have several apps running that you do not need.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] colonel187:
The Rom has minimal effect on battery same goes for autokiller. Apps kill you battery, change governor in setcpu to conservative. Create a profile for screen off CPU min/max 245. Check your sync settings I bet something is syncing often or stuck in a continuous sync.

Android system

Since I've been letting it sit, cell standby has taken over along with phone idle. Prior to that, my phone was running pretty hot. I deleted batterystats from root explorer a few hours ago so I'm letting it drain again. Plus now I'm using my eris battery which has ran alot of cycles of drain & recharge. I'll bump down my task killer tho.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rmaccamr:
As has been said, the absolute best way to make it through the day is set a profile for 245 when your screen is off. I underclock using hydrakernel 1 at 652 full time. I never need to use the maximum 1152 for anything practical.

The other suggestion is going with the seidio 3500mah battery. Sure you'll have a heavier bulkier phone, but people have gone upwards of 5-7 days on a charge. And also people state that it feels better in their hands. There is also a 1750mah battery that won't require an extension, and an official HTC battery at 2150 (but also requires an extension).

I honestly think HTC and Verizon screwed the pooch on the battery issue. I'm sure they were thinking extra sales on extra batteries, but at the cost of customer satisfaction.

I have a similar set up. King3 @1113 and skyraider3 I get about 10 hours of heavy use. I turned every sync down to once a day except weather @ 3 hours. The conservative governor and screen off profile with max/min 245 governor powersave. Will make a huge difference.
