Take a look at the right sub-forum. There you will find help.

And please try to make proper Thread-Titles. "pleaseeeee heelpppppppp" does not tell anyone that you have a "problem with your Galaxy S after flashing a rom" (This would be a good title). Much people ignore those "****"-posts because they don't provide any information about the problem.

All of these are stable and I've even used my boot profile with the performance governor (meaning the CPU is pegged at 1.19gHz) for benchmarking and extended usage (As when I was purposely draining my battery when doing the aforementioned battery cache wipe trick) with no stability issues whatsoever (I'm talkin last.fm scrobbling, music playing, wifi hotspotting, sync, resync, sync again, GPS & BT both on, full brightness and flashlight every few minutes on full brightness lol) will edit in the morning, looking forward to seeing other people's setups!

SetCPU D'INC

Hey guys, I am running the CyanogenMod 6.1.0 Stable ROM, [KERNEL][AOSP] 2.6.32.26-invisiblek #18, and the official froyo radio 2.15.00.07.28, I copied the SetCPU profiles that were in the picture in the post above and I was wondering if that is needed or is this kernel and rom already OC'ed?
[Epic 4G General] toddman:
I love my Epic. Just switched from Verizon and have found I roam a lot on verizon. Which is fine, but when I'm home it's half a bar or sometimes no bars at all but still sprint. Time without a signal right now is 97%. This is draining my battery and causing me to drop calls. Is there a setting to prefer use of strongest tower regardless if it's roaming? If I roam to Verizon it's Full bars.

Thanks,
[Epic 4G General] Aridon:
See if you can get an airwave.
[Epic 4G General] rawsoup:
why would you switch to verizon when it has no 4g?
[Epic 4G General] toddman:
@rawsoup. So 4G does exsist?? ;) Not available here. I was curious if there was an app to use strongest tower regardless if it's roaming. Wherever I go it's always half a bar with sprint. So calls will connect but then they drop. I guess I'll just get an airwave for my house, work and the grocery store.
[Epic 4G General] rawsoup:
hmmm. thats funny what area (not specific address, i'm not a stalker) do you live in?
[Epic 4G General] th3j3ster:
I have to agree with OP on this...the ability to flop over to roaming would be awesome. It's amazing..this same post has shown up for a ton of different phones throughout the years and the first response is always "why?".

I live in Queens in a basement apartment, 15 minutes from Manhattan. If I go outside my building, I get 2-4 bars service. Depending on where I leave my phone in my house, I get 0-1 bars, 1 if I'm really, really lucky and have been a good boy all year.

Currently, without paying stupid amounts of money for an airave (I don't even make that many phone calls, just need to be available for work), I have to turn the phone radio off, load up sipdroid to use with my gizmo5 account, and rely on google voice completely. I don't get texts, but since I have GV I get those texts and that suffices for now...but it's a lot of work to simply be able to be reached.

Verizon has 5 bars in my apartment. I shouldn't have to pay sprint whatever ridiculous amount they're asking for the airave hardware and the service when sprint already has roaming deals with verizon, and I pay for these roaming contracts in my monthly plan. I should be able to switch over to roam in my house for the off chance that I do get a phone call, and so that my battery isn't drained completely by two hours of trying to aquire sprint's signal.

The Palm Pre had a roam only hack, and it was beautifly done. Can someone get the ball rolling for an android app? I know there have been three billion posts in relation to this feature on android...but it would be really, really helpful.
[Epic 4G General] Aridon:
I agree but airwaves hve been mostly free for people calling in needing help with ****ty service inside. Especially if you can be nice but still be fcirm with pleading your case.

Now sometmes new accounts need to wait 90 days for new free hardware to establish payment history and if you don't pay your bill or in general are a pain in the balls don't expect them to help you.

However many people get them without the monthly fee and free hardware.
[Epic 4G General] bblanski:
Looks like roam control from the market will work on Samsung phones nextweek
[Epic 4G General] toddman:
Sweet, just what I'm looking for. Thanks!

I guess if I root my phone, sprint won't let me return it with their 30day worry free program. I guess I'll just have to just trust it works. (unless there's a unroot option) :)
[Epic 4G General] njfoses:
Where did you see that update at?
[Epic 4G General] thephawx:
Wait wait. I'm lost. Roaming on VZ network is free on Sprint?
[Epic 4G General] MrGreg:
This loser stole my app from the market and is trying to sell it. No one wants you here. Plus, quit spreading bad information, it doesn't work for *all* android phones...take the Droid X for example.
[Epic 4G General] A_Flying_Fox:
Wow. You people need to stop wondering why and just answer the question. Clearly OP doesnt have any type of good signal.

I live in the bronx in a basement apartment and i get 2 bars if im lucky. But its always switching between sprint and verizon killing my battery, lagging my phone and dropping my calls. F the airwave. I had force roaming with CM6 on my hero and would use it when im home and get full bars with no interuption and then switch to sprint when i step outside my door where i get full bars.

But anyways, nah i dont think the epic has force roaming yet...when someone ports CM6 over it should have it.

You can go into settings/wireless & networks/ mobile connection and set it to home only and it should be able to hold onto that 1 sprint bar you have and it wouldnt constantly switch to vzw and back, killing your phone.

It sucks. I remember i would hope i started roaming before i got the option for force roamong lol
[Epic 4G General] A_Flying_Fox:
And yeah roaming is free and unlimited on verizon. But apparently theres a data cap of 300mb on 3g and unlimited 4g roaming (which is bs cuz sprint is the only one using WiMax) with the 4g phones....but im not entirely sure...
[Epic 4G General] MrGreg:
Just so people know, there is an app in the market called "Roam Control" that allows you to force roaming on your Epic. Disclaimer: I am the developer.

Otherwise, with HTC phones, you can run CM6 which has the roaming option built in.

The joker above (fazooley) pirated my app and is trying to sell it to people for $1. I think you're better off ignoring him.
[Epic 4G General] churro7:
yes it does but requires root dang
[Epic 4G General] MrGreg:
Yeah, sorry man. Not into the rooting thing?
[Epic 4G General] churro7:
well of course i am but i want to root froyo instead
[Epic 4G General] toddman:
Thanks guys for your help. I figured out the Forcing Roam issue by just switching back to Verizon. Problem Solved ;)

How does the "Automatic" mode work? (Your Market description could stand a few more details... :))
[Epic 4G General] shortyboy:


automatic-looks for both sprint or verizon signal aka normal mode

home-looks for sprint only

roam-looks for verizon only

this program has greatly increased my battery life at work and i well worth the money.
[Epic 4G General] quik99:
somewhat related question. In the past Verizon and sprint would activate each others phones. Can I get a droid x and put in on sprint or epic on verizon etc?
[Epic 4G General] Kcarpenter:
When did those ever happen? If you got it to happen, someone broke the rules. No, you'll have to put a droid x on the network on your own.
[Epic 4G General] fczeuner:
Thank You Mr. Greg! :D I just installed your Roam Control App on my DK17 Epic. I'm doing some training for work in Oklahoma, and had between 0 and 1 bars on Sprint with roaming mixed in too. My battery life was half what it was at home and I was constantly worried about missed calls. After installing your apps I could not be happier (5 bars). Thanks again well worth every penny.

P.S. -Don't be afraid to root your phone. You own it. Live a little!

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] redpoint73:
Are you talking about changing the theme to another one already installed on the phone? If so, you go to Start>Settings>Home>Appearance. I don't have a TMob branded TP2, so I don't know what themes are pre-installed.

Or are you talking about installing a brand new (custom) theme? There are a few on this forum intended especially for the TP2, if you page through it. Make sure they are compatible with the version of Sense/Manila that you have. They typically install as a .cab file.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=656551

There are also some custom themes in the non-device specific Windows Mobile forum. But you have to be more careful about compatibility with your device, screen resolution (TP2 is WVGA), as well as version of Sense also.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bemymonkey:
Hi everyone!

I'm using OpenDesire 4.0.4, and while it's more or less the perfect ROM for me, I'm getting a little annoyed at the WiFi. As the ROM is based on CyanogenMod, it has the same WiFi behaviour: When the screen turns off, the WiFi enters power saving mode, regardless of the apps that are active at the time, or the amount of traffic over WiFi at the time.

The problem here is that any application that's using WiFi pretty much just stops as soon as you turn the screen off.

1. Sipdroid during a call: Massive packet loss as soon as the screen turns off. You may hear a garble or two, but nothing intelligible.

2. SwiFTP and other FTP servers: Connecting to the FTP server and navigating to folders takes ages when the phone is in standby. Transferring files is more or less impossible (times out)... Everything's fine when the screen's on. If you transfer a big file and turn off the screen during the transfer, you basically pause the transer - turn the screen back on and the transfer goes back to full speed :rolleyes:

3. Market: If you turn off the screen while a lot of apps are going to download, like after pressing "Update all" for a few apps, more often than not they'll just fail in the background.

Now, I could beg and ask the ROM developers (Kali for CyanogenMod on Desire, or AdamG for OpenDesire) to just change this behaviour, but it seems that most people are happy with the situation, as it causes the WiFi to use very little battery on standby... so I'm asking if anyone knows how I could change this myself. Is it even possible to do this at runtime without baking it into the ROM directly?

Or am I SOL until (or rather unless) AdamG or Kali takes pity on me? :p

I'd love to hear some input - hell, maybe I'm just doing it wrong ;)... Thanks in advance!

PS: Yes, my WiFi Sleep Policy is set to Never, and the Desire DOES stay connected when the screen is off. Just in a very low power mode...

-edit- Should have searched, sorry: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=752856

-edit2- Looks like there really isn't a fix for this... Anyone found a way to completely disable PSP on the Desire/Nexus WiFi?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] th3:
I'm on the same ROM as yourself. What value is your "screen-off lock screen delay" set to?

In my observations, the transfer in the state you mention still persists albeit at a very slow rate and the WiFi chip is certainly placed in the LOW power state, although on.

I'm unaware of any workaround but what I use myself when transferring bulk 1-7GB files through WiFi from my PC/Laptop, which is to change the value of the screen lock delay at screen off under Settings>OpenDesire>User Interface>(last option) to a high figure, like 10-30m, depending on how long I'm expecting the transfer to take. It's a trade-off but you'll still save over 95% of the power since your screen is off but the WiFi/SD/CPU remain working as when the screen is on. Maybe you've tried this already?

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bemymonkey:
That's not a bad idea... brb testing ;).

-edit- Didn't work :(

As soon as the screen times out, my transfer speed drops to nearly 0 - even with the lock delay set to 30m... :'(
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] th3:
OK, that's confusing. I'll be back by tonight or morning... I have much testing to do on this since for sub-20mins, my connection runs plus 200Kbps according to the PowerTutor log in such a state. Usually it would drop to 0.3-8Kbps when the screen switched off.

-----------------------------------

- Sent via my HTC Desire -
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bemymonkey:
Mine drops to practically 0. So low that due to overhead, FTP transfers pretty much stop completely... :(
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] th3:
I've seen that the linked kernel module provides a temporary workaround for you guys now. During the course of my testing your concern I basically found my WiFi module isn't ever turning off nor switching any connections off - it's always awake and can always transfer some data. Even in the LOW state it is connected at 24Mbps. Whatever I did I couldn't change this behavior on 4.0.4. Time for another wipe...

OD has many user preferred options baked in working fine alongside the conventional options so it'd probably be best suited for a toggle of this feature to be implemented for you guys (if at all possible). Not sure if that WiFi module power state behaviour is write-able and changeable on-the-fly before a reboot, should be, as it's only changing a hardware state.

-----------------------------------

- Sent via my HTC Desire -
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bemymonkey:
The new Wifi module is working perfectly here. No more performance problems, and my power consumption has actually gone DOWN. Probably because I have a bunch of connected apps running in the background and PSP is very inefficient for that.

Also, the delays in Chrome To Phone and Appbrain web installs are gone... :)

I'm loving this fix...

Steps on how to get your Rom's Framework-res.apk and what to do of the zip file

There are 4 main ways to get it:

1.From the zip file of your ROM

Download the ROM you are using.

Decompress/unzip it using 7zip/winzip .

Open System/Framework/ in the unziped folder

Take the framework-res.apk in system/framework/ folder.

Place it anywhere you want (on the desktop for example).

2.From your phone

Download a file manager (Astro or ES File Explorer or other...) in the Market.

Go to /system/framework/ folder in your phone.

Copy the framework-res.apk in your SDCard.

Place it anywhere you want (on the desktop for example).

3. Use file from the kitchen

You can select file of your ROM/Theme from drop-down list in file upload section.

We have corrected files for most popular roms/themes.

4. Alternatively you can also use ThemePro to extract it from your Rom.

Before starting editing your framework-res.apk you should make an other copy of it if you want to restore your original framework.

Copy it and rename it as framework-res_ORIGINAL.apk for example.

What to do of the UOT-......... ZIP File that you made from the kitchen

Reboot into recovery.

choose "install zip from sdcard"

choose "choose zip from sdcard"

locate your file UOT-... .zip in SD

confirm "YES - install UOT ... .zip"

wait for script to finish

reboot phone
