Want it to work but...

Restarted my attempt to get android to work smoothly on my Pola100.

Used L1q1d's manual to create my own .nbh, androidinstall, install seq starting from a clean rom.

In fact, if charger is close at hand, all is quite well and working (beats WINMO), but:

if by any chance, the device has to be shut down (like in a plane), when I restart, all kinds of processes go berserk. and then my only option is to reinstall the system, which means reinstalling all additional apps, configuring my accounts etc.

The past few days i've had to do this every day, next to that my phone's battery is empty in less than 10 hrs (not calling freq.,no BT,no WIFI, no GPS and no market apps added)

I'm using RLS15 and the latest 2.6.25 files (10-31-10).

Any suggestions?

I'm excited to get a screen protector on my epic because...I already dropped it. I'm going to put on a Phantom skinz screen protector, which according to the instructions involves water and baby shampoo. I don't have any baby shampoo at the moment -- was hoping to use the skinomi application solution. Is there anything significant about either one? Is it just to ensure a tight seal and easy application (acting as a lubricant)? If so I guess there wouldn't be a problem to just use the Skinomi stuff...

I am cheap, lazy, don't feel like going to the nearest store to get baby shampoo, and get really excited when new products come in the mail. =P

TIA
[Epic 4G Accessories] lordcyrus:
You can use anything really. Invisible Shield, Skinomi, water and baby shampoo, water and dish soap, whatever. It just acts as a lubricant to keep it from sticking to you or the phone until it's set right.

So yes, you're fine with the skinomi stuff.
[Epic 4G Accessories] NeonMonster:
The Skinomi fluid is basically water. Adding a bit of soap helps with making it easier to move the skins around on the device.
[Epic 4G Accessories] jacjyd:
thanks for the responses! overly paranoid about stuff...
[Epic 4G Accessories] chococrazy:
Yah it doesn't matter what you do some poeple even use drops of soap.

The one thing you want to watch out for is bubbles, as they ruin the application.

Baby oil works as well.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yhperalt:
So, I wanted to finally root my nexus one, it's not as easy as I thought. I successfully unlocked the bootloader, then I tried to root it with superboot, I did all the process once in the computer but when I double clicked "install-superboot-windows" a little window pooped up for just a second and then dissapeared, it did not give me any feedback saying the phone was rooted or anything, I assumed it was, but then I rebooted the phone, downloaded a terminal app and it would force closed, then I tried to turn on the wifi and it did not let me, it said "error". So I tried the superboot process a couple of times more (which I don't know if It might be the cause of my problems), after that I turned on my nexus and now It does not even connect to the mobile network, it says no service, and also, it is rebooting by itself every few minutes. Is there any way to fix this, can I go back to the way it was to try to root it again? Is there another way to root it besides superboot?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
If you unlocked the bootloader - why do you mess with superboot? Just fastboot flash the recovery you want (suggest Amon_Ra), and from there flash the custom ROM you want (suggest Enomther's).

Look in Nexus Wiki for tutorials.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yhperalt:
I thought it would be easier with superboot, but now that I have done it with superboot ( I assume it worked because there is an icon called "superuser Permissions" on my launcher though I can't open it) and it seems to have messed up my phone, Can I now flash the recovery to bring things back to normal, or what should I do? Like I said the phone can't connect to the mobile network and wifi is not working
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Nexus One Wiki

As I said, look there for the tutorials. READ. A lot. And then you'll know how to really use the potential of this phone and all the custom ROMs for it.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] productofusa:
There is no way around what Jack_R1 says, if you hope to unlock any of the potential of your device do this. If you don't enjoy, or at least tolerate wading through pages, and pages, and more pages of sometimes indecipherable technobabble, save yourself lots of headaches and stick with stock/vanilla.

but i have a problem it says Paritioning aborted !

and i try to install radio but it says Installation Aborted !

:confused::confused:
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SolemnWishing:
Your options, try one or all of them.

1) Reflash the recovery image.

2) Format your memory card (completely FAT32) first on your computer

3) Physically partition the card with a knife and carve in "FAT32", "Ext4", etc, accordingly.

4) Try a new memory card / verify current one is working

5) Partition it on your computer instead

so i restored several apps with titanium backup, however they are not alphabetized in my apps list under GRID view. under LIST view however, they are? is it possible to get them arraigned alphabetized under GRID? thanks
[Fascinate General] scottishwarrior:
That is one of the known bugs that is posted on boy genius. They are shown in order of install date and time instead of alphabetically.
[Fascinate General] patchnauty:
maybe. menu list. then go to menu grid??

[Fascinate General] CamdogXIII:
you can reset the sorting of TouchWiz by clearing the cache and loading another launcher (such as adw or launcher pro) and reloading TouchWiz Launcher back up.

(you might just have to clear the cache, but I know it DOES work if you do both.
[Fascinate General] Val3r10:
TWlauncher config isn't in cache, but the whole grid settings are stored in a sqlite db:

/dbdata/databases/com.sec.android.app.twlauncher/launcher.db

... including the different pages and the 16 app icons in a numbered position per page.

You can edit/backup it. Or moving apps among pages...

Hi, I'm new to XDA...

I have a t-mobile HTC HD2 that keeps resetting itself during calls. I don't have any other programs running, not using wi-fi etc..just making a call. I have ROM version 2.13.531.1, and radio version 2.10.50.26. i call t-mobile customer support and they are sending me a new battery, but I'm not so sure this will fix the problem. Would a different ROM be a fix...maybe possibly running android instead??? Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
[HD2 General] crisisinthecity:
If it's rebooting randomly take out your battery and check for bent pins on the phone side. There are 5 pins. Do you remove your battery often?
[HD2 General] gijim0905:
No I don't remove the battery very often and all of the pins are straight.
[HD2 General] crisisinthecity:
Did you get your new battery yet from T mobile?
[HD2 General] gijim0905:
Not yet...should be here this week.
[HD2 General] DECIM8:
My phone would do this very rarely though my wife's phone did it on a more regular basis. After flashing to a custom ROM this behavior went away. I opted for the Energy GTX ROM though there are many good options out there.

If you don't want to go the custom ROM route or before you go that route you might try a different radio. It may be trying to change to/from GSM/edge/3G in the middle of a call causing the call to drop. I have had good luck with the 2.10 that you are using though you might try the 2.12 that is available. Many have reported better results with that one. Just a thought.
[HD2 General] HTC Ninja:
My phone just started doing it now. It resetting while it was charging via usb to PC. The sensor to turn off the screen (black screen) was out of whack and stayed off even when my face was away from the phone. It turned out during my call!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] viruscrazy:
Hi,

First of all, I want to thanks all people that helped me testing the battery driver last time.

I'm starting a new thread for those tests as I seen many "users" of xdandroid were using my zImage as if it was an official one and claims having troubles with them.

As it's some still at devel level, I prefet to have a separate thread, this will avoid any confusion between official releases and development release.

As you may know, the first images I've released didn't not contains the modules, thus, wifi was not working. Also, I did broke the rodhium boot because of the battery temperature reporting false temperature for this model.

For those who wants to help me by testing this driver, the important thing is to clearly describe the problem you have (I.E : don't tell that the battery level is wrong only, tell me how you do know that, by comparison to winmo or else...). Second important thing is to make a "dmesg log" :

How-to make a dmesg log :

1/ Go to the "Dev tools" menu and launch the "Terminal Emulator"

2/ type "cd sdcard" (without the quote)

3/ type "dmesg >dmesg.log" (without the quotes)

4/ Send/Post me the dmesg file that will be made on the root of the SD card (either you can get it using android - don't work on my diamond - or you can get the file by rebooting the phone under winmo.

You can also do this using adb if you know how it works.

Shell script method :

1/ Make a txt file with "dmesg > /sdcard/dmesg.txt" on the root of your sdcard name it dumpdmesg.sh

2/ Under xdandroid, browse to the sdcard folder and execute the dumpdmesg.sh file

P.S : yu may have to make the dumpdmesg.sh executable using the followinf method : under a terminal (see above), type "cd sdcard" and then type "chmod +x dumpdmesg.sh".

If you need some special help or want to contact me, just send me a pm.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] viruscrazy:
Here is a new set of zImages INCLUDING modules (hope it will work this time !). It have been build with the most recent kernel changes (Friday 10th September). The packages include the zImage+module in the folder zImage. Modified source files are available in the folder src.

1/ Only battery driver changes :

http://www.mediafire.com/?02qlq504pihhnnp

2/ Battery driver + Diamond panel on/off "improvement" (some people reports the screen does not powers up with this zImage. If you are experiencing same problem, please restore a working zImage (from your previous version or the last official build) and send me a dmesg log after having power on/off the screen at least 3 times. Thanks)

[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] zeta1988:
How to use?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] hamagc:
another way to get the dmesg log that was advised to me some time ago was to make a txt file with "dmesg > /sdcard/dmesg.txt" inside of it and name it dumpdmesg.sh. when in android (using a file manager) execute the dmesg.sh file and it will create a dmesg log for you on the root of your sdcard. may be easier than typing it in terminal.

here is my log: http://pastebin.com/dPeEwFYr

winmo showed 80% when i booted android, android showed 77. this is on a siedio 1500mah battery. hopefully it will help with something. let me know if you need more info from me.

Thanks for the script thing, I will put it in my first post.

Thanks also for your log. Will have a look at it.

still have wifi error

I used both fixes: battery driver and Battery driver + Diamond panel on/off "improvement" and with both of them I have Wifi error.

I attached dmesg for the first fix - battery driver

My device is DIAM100 with standard 900 mah battery

i can confirm this too. wifi still shows error.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] m4f1050:
Is the patch for Diamond only (reason to have "Diamond" on the name?)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] gm112:
I found it easier to just dump the file by doing this:

1. Open "cmd", type in "adb shell".

2. Type in "cd sdcard", then type "dmesg > dmesg.log"

3. Type "exit", then type "adb pull /sdcard/dmesg.log C:\Users\UserNameHere\Desktop\dmesg.log".

:P Also, check this post for my dmesg log. It's a whole day of me using my phone including charging and not, etc, etc..

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=8097023&postcount=2281 <<

The only issues I've found so far are...

Sometimes the screen does not come back on. (Known issue, been about for a long time)

Touchpad seems to stop working randomly. I have to hit the up arrow on the "trackball" to re-enable the capacitive touchpad.

When plugging the phone into charge, it immediately reads 100% battery.

The good part is that my phone doesn't heat up to dangerous temperatures as it used to! It's a little warm, but definitely a huge improvement over the older revisions. I'm running the kernel with the Diamond patch, and I'm using an HTC Fuze with 3G Data turned on, Facebook, Handscent, Pandora, and GMail all running. I made a few phone calls in the process, too. The phone held together through all of that :P.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] lupohirp:
im'going to test it on my diam100!:-)

edit: the battery seems to work better but wifi doesn't work and when i set the screen off the led start to blink like diamond is charging....this mean a battery consumption...!but this is the good way bro!!!!

edit2: android shows me 55% winMo 58%!!!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] imrock:
hey viruscrazy, are you working to get better battery life also?? I used your kernel update, kept the phone on standby (95% batt) throughout the night and saw low batt in the morning:(:(

But i got the correct battery %age and the panel worked well too:):)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] djdafreund:
I just grabbed this tonight, and will DEFINITELY help to give feedback, it's one of 2 reason's I don't already use it daily (other being camera, i use alot), i know we got the fakecharge option, but it doesn't help to use and just have it go dead from actually being dead cause of no way to monitor it. This will be great to tweak it in time to be close to accurate as WM is. And get the patches officially added!!!

I am a little confused though, i over wrote my zimage, but the module's file was only like 400-500KB, versus the daily one i grab (when ever a new one is thrown up to DL.) is like 5MB in size. (current one i got is named "modules-2.6.27.46-01163-ge008466.tar.gz" and has 61 files, but on the site i got it from, it says "Kernels are built without debugging, for increase of speed." which i take it to mean a lot more compiled files are included to help speed.) I get them from http://balsat.hopto.org/.

I am still learning, but each time a new module file comes out, you DO delete the old one and use the new one right? Versus just ADDING the new one in your android directory (adding more and more doing this.)

I want to test, but don't want to mess up things that might make testing worse for you doing this'

EDIT- Ok, i havent's had time YET to follow the log instructions for info, BUT for now I ran it (didn't look at the battery level unfortunately, and will properly test more, but JUST wanted to give quick feedback since i already noticed a MMAASSIIVVEE difference in the metering of battery ALREADY.),

USUALLY ALWAYS after about 20-30 minutes (at most) it shows about 10-15% left. With new patches here provided on my CDMA Touch Pro, i was ACTIVELY was downloading and installing new games and utilities from the marketplace for over 3 HOURS, and it was showing battery power level pretty well, it showed 18% battery power left, i then rebooted into WM and battery power showed 34%, which isn't right, HOWEVER is WAY closer to showing proper battery levels compared to normal Android 2.2 builds by themselves. I will offer active helping support (using the shown proper proceedures.) in giving feedback with the rest of the helper here to help get us to the point where the battery level % is as closest to accurate as WM is. That is the 2nd only reason i don't use Android as my PRIMARY OS (forgetting about WM completely), Battery accurate level meter (TONS closer with current patches linked here), and CAMERA (as i use it a lot for normal images and family photo's and nephew
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] viruscrazy:
Hi there.

Fisrt of all, sorry for the wifi problem, I will have a closer look to the building process as it seems there is a problem with it. I don't use wifi myself so I don't test it but I will do for the next releases.

@m4f1050 : The diamond patch is for all phones but changes only affect the diamond phone. I made a different archive because maybe the panel stuff is not working correctly on all diamonds and people still want to test the battery stuff.

@gm112 : Thanks for the tip. I didn't put the adb method because on my diamond, the adb is not working all time. sometimes it will work (even using the Mass Storage profile under windows) and sometimes it won't work (even using the actyvesync profile)... Anywya, it's an easier way for people that have usb working on their phone.

@imrock : I'm not currently working on battery life but during my tests, I've seen a big difference between sleep mode using winmo (around 50mA drained over the usb cable) and android (arout 130mA drained over the usb cable). I've not yet measured the current drained from battery as I will have to make a small isolation between battery and contact.

@djdafreund : My modules are having problems because wifi won't work. When you download a new zImage, you should get the module that is provided with and you can delete the old one.

Thanks all for tests. I will at first try to figure out why I can't get the modules to compile properly.

Small questions : Do someone experienced problem letting the phone on charger all night ? I had a problem with one of my charger that will show charging but after a night, the battery is not fully charged, like if the charger stopped during the night. The other one charger works without any problem and the battery is fully charged. Maybe a problem with my charger but I want to be sure the problem is not coming from the android 2.2 (I just updated to 2.2 this week end, never had this problem before).
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] viruscrazy:
Hi,

I found the magic script that generates the modules correctly. I've updated the second post links to the new builded images + modules. Modules are not the smalles one without debug but I will make them withut debug for the next time.

Now, it's time for me to work on the rhodium temperature.

Please, continue testing,*especially for diamonds users that have problems with their screen.

Thanks
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] gm112:
Good job on the work, man! :P ..Question. Do you need a Fuze? I have one with a broken touchscreen, lol.

EDIT: After charging the phone a bit, it seems the battery level drops 1% every 8 seconds.

EDIT #2: It seems to get back in-sync with what Windows Mobile reports after dropping down to the accurate amount O_o. After rebooting, the reported battery life was lower tahn what it actually was, and added up till it was fairly close to the actual value. It may jump around a few percentiles off, but it's much more accurate than ever before, it seems. My panel doesn't seem to "freeze" up like it did before, too. Waking up from sleep seems a bit more responsive, but that could be related to other things. I'd like to report that my HTC Fuze(RAPH110) does not get very much hot when it's charging and discharging ;P. I'll post a dmesg log in a few hours.

EDIT #3: Figured I'd mirror your kernel images!
