i use titanium to remove any straggler apps from system when playing with roms. I use a script to make them pretty bare bones first but there is often a stragler depending on the rom that i can remove. works great. but as others have said you can also use estrong, root explorer, and adb to do this as well.

Hey guys,

would it be possible to change the 4 bar signal from the stock notification bar with a 5 bar version?

Also I would like to get an animated syncing icon in the notification bar. I didn't find an XML file in the framework-res.apk to change this.

Are these two Mods possible somehow?

Please help!

Since yesterday, after plug off from loading, my HD2 (German t-mobile ROM 1.77, Radio 2.07) doesn't switch of screen. In the past week, I haven't changed anything or installed any apps.

By pressing 'off' key, screen becomes black and will be revoked with screen lock after few seconds. When screen light gets low after predfined time, it will come back will full light after few seconds.

I've tried hard reset, installed stock ROM from t-mobile (include radio ROM) - nothing changed.

Does anyone can help?

I've seen this issue periodically here on the boards. From what I've read from the users who experience this issue, it is likely to be hardware related. One way to test this is to turn off the screen when the device is plugged in (charging)? If the screen will stay off when plugged in then I have some bad news.

The only solution I have seen is to send the device in to HTC for repair. Sorry. :(

I believe it has something to do with the micro usb being defective.

Hopefully someone will correct me if I'm wrong.

Hey xda-dev's,

I'm listening to Music with my Legend very much, and i recognized that Audioplayback is sometimes stopping, is running without even when the screen is locked. Sometimes I have to push power button to get sound back. I don't think that this is a ROM or Music Player issue because I was getting this problem with an unrooted Phone and some other ROM.

Can somebody help me ?

Thanks

I as trying to remove the touchwiz launcher. i downloaded the stock home launcher i got from the vibrant development section. what i did was cut and paste the launcher.apk in system/app/ folder of my phone. im and very new to this but i was smart enough to make a nandroid. but my results were the screen saying application not installed. i was using the SUFBS explorer. Please help if anyone can.

Thanks
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d_bot:
you should have something like Launcher.apk for the new launcher, and TouchWiz30Launcher.apk for touch wiz launcher...I think.

with adb

su
adb push Launcher.apk /system/app/

hit home on your phone and it should ask you what you want to use.

if you want to remove TW and keep a backup, in adb do:

adb pull /system/app/TouchWiz30Launcher.apk

if you dont care about keeping a backup of TW around, in adb do:

adb shell

rm -r /system/app/TouchWiz30Launcher.apk

If you dont have adb setup you can use something like RootExplorer, and what you want to do is take the new Launcher.apk and put it in the /system/app (I would hit home just to test if it asks you what you want to use go back to RootExplorer and) then delete TouchWiz30Launcher.apk"
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reekxda:
gonna try and do it thru the root explorer. i was scared to delete the touchwiz.apk but since im making a nandroid things should be ok. i dont have adb set up. i think i have it installed on my pc but i cant type any commands in because it says something about installing packages which i thought i already did. oh well, gonna let the results be known.

[EVO 4G General] neodorian:
My Evo is a little over 3 months old and I don't consider it outdated at all. Just because something isn't the absolute latest model doesn't make it stop working. The Hero is like a year old and even that is only considering the Sprint version. It had the same hardware class as some of the much older HTC phones like the Magic, etc. and was not much better than the G1 spec-wise.

When the Hero came out it was already dated really. That's why I didn't buy one. When I got my yearly upgrade I swapped my Pre for an Evo since it was a big enough jump to justify $200. Honestly I like having a sizeable jump in performance every year or so because it means I can use my yearly upgrade for something worthwhile. I don't bother using it if the only thing available is a minor improvement.

This works only on european, unbranded I9000 phones.

The range has been estimated, but so far there has been zero misses.

It might vary a bit in both directions.

Phones which have the old bootloader (i.e shipping fimware release <I9000XXJM1) will have IMEI: 351751043xxxxxx or lower.

Phones with the old bootloader will have those precious "3-button combos" enabled.

Phones with IMEI: 351751046xxxxxx or higher will have a new bootloader and therefore the "3-button combos" disabled.

The range between these two...

Unknown.

we tried that before using the IMEI to Identify the "bad" phones but unfortunately it doesn't work

because in the same batch i was able to find side by side one that worked and one that did not work

same date, same batch the IMEI were just a +2 increment from the phone that worked, yet it did not work no matter what.

so even in the very same production of the assembly, you will find both working and non working mixed together.

Hi all,

I am puzzled by my problem. I am using Virtuous 2.7 + King's BFS kernel #4.

My phone battery will drop quickly from 100% to 92% right after unplugged from the power cord. By quickly, I meant I did not use the phone, killed all tasks, and battery will drop to 92% literally in minutes.

Bump charging, wiping battery stats, wiping dalvik cache, killing all tasks are not helping at all. I don't have SetCPU, but someone in the forum mentioned they have SetCPU, and it is not helping either.

Is anyone having this problem? Does anyone have any idea on how to solve this?

I have the same issue using SkyRaider 3.1. Battery is 100% then after 5-10 minutes drops down to low 90s. It bothered me at first but after several days of moderate to heavy use and still having almost 50% battery left at the end of the day, I just figured it was some kind of bug when reading the battery level at the beginning.

That is bump charging. Something htc is unable or unwilling to fix.

Do you bump charge every single time you charge right now? It's pain in the butt if I have to bump charge everyday.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s197:
Yup every day. 4 or 5 times is way overkill though. Just charge phone until green, turn off (don't need to unplug), wait until it turns green then do the plug/unplug one more time.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KB Smoka:
Went to stock (official OTA), rooted, custom recovery, bump charged, reset stats and cache and I'm good now.

I charged it to "full" while it was powered on. Once the light turned green I turned the phone off, charged again until the light turned green. Took about 25 minutes. Powered up in recovery wiped battery and cache and now I'm good. The key is after doing all this you have to let the phone completely die.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vantagejuan:
If you're wiping your battery stats after a bump charge, you will have this problem every time you don't bump charge.

If you wipe your battery stats after it goes green without a bump charge, you won't have this problem.

This is because the software thinks the bump charged battery levels equal 100% charge. A bump charge adds approximately 10 percent of charge.

Formatting your phone or any software changes won't actually do anything other than wipe your battery stats while your phone is not at bump charge levels.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chillmeow:
I'll try this instead! I don't want to bump charge everyday! It's too troublesome.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] larsrya8:
The reason this happens is because the battery gets charged fully to 100%, and then is allowed to slowly drain back to 90% (or so) before it's charged back to 100% again. This is how Lithium batteries are charged.

Try this: charge the battery to 100%, and immediately disconnect it after it's full. Notice how the battery doesn't drop to the low 90's immediately.

The reason "bump charging" appears to work is because there is no drain on the battery, since the phone is off. It goes to 100% and stops.

There's nothing we can do code-wise to fix this; it's just how the battery technology works. Keeping it fully charged at 100% while on would damage the charging capacity of our phones.

Btw.. wrong forum.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cu-n-az:
Solutions in search of a problem

Let me preface this by saying that I’m not an electrical engineer, or any sort of expert on phone hardware, but I think a couple issues are being confused. I’ve seen many posts about this battery “problem” here and elsewhere and an important point is being missed. People are confusing what the battery is actually doing with what the phone SAYS the battery is doing. They are NOT the same thing. The battery is a physical device and it will do what it’s going to do.

Battery life is a function of battery quality, initial state of charge, and demand. If you want the battery to last longer, look at ways of reducing demand. What applications are in use? How long is the screen on? What brightness level? Overclocking and undervolting settings? All these will affect ACTUAL battery life.

At lot of the “solutions” discussed have nothing to do with conserving energy use, but have everything to do with messing with how the phone REPORTS the state of charge. A good example is the issue of the initial drop reported by many users during the first few minutes after unplugging the charger. I see this on my own phone. If the phone is “taught” that 100% charge is when it is totally crammed with juice and plugged in as well, it’s not surprising that there is a good bit of voltage drop (+/- 10%?) right after unplugging. Does this mean there is a problem? NO! It’s just the battery doing what batteries do. A lot of the suggestions about wiping battery stats and such have nothing to do with saving energy. They are ways of fiddling with how the phone REPORTS its condition under various circumstances.

My advice: if you are happy with how your battery lasts, over the course of a day or so, then learn to relax, crack open a cold brew, and revel in just what a great phone the Incredible is. If your battery isn’t lasting as long as you need it to, then look at ways to save power or get a larger capacity battery. Tweaking the battery meter function is simply a feel-good exercise and won’t get you any actual improved performance. END OF RANT.
