[Vibrant General] lqaddict:
Charged to 100% before I went to sleep last night, woke up to 90%, so let's say I started fresh.

I spent most of my day outside with my dog, listening to Music Player and Pandora, checked XDA a few times, snapped a dozen or so pics of the sunset, talked to my friend overseas via Google Voice for 30 minutes or so, a few MMS and SMS, uploaded a few pics to Facebook, checked Gmail a few times - I am left with 48% (18 hrs since unplugged). Battery usage only shows voice calls, cell standby, phone idle and display.

I am on Bionix Fusion 1.1 running JI2 modem, and JAC OC/UV kernel currently not over clocked, my GPS is always on, WCDMA/EDGE auto, display brightness set to 10%.

For what I use the phone that is an adequate battery life for me.

When I was calibrating the new ROM for my battery I was running the phone at 100% brightness whenever I used the display, with Google Maps indoors (no lock, it was constantly searching for satellites), WiFi on, no BT, and Pandora was streaming constantly (during my subway commute I switched to a regular MP3 player)- it took me close to 10 hours to drain the sucker empty.
[Vibrant General] sparkyj62:
I do not understand how some of you are getting the battery life!!?? I would consider my self a moderate user. I can barely get 8 hours out of my phone. Lately it has been a lot worse for no apparent reason.

For example, I unplugged my phone this morning at 0630 (from a full over night charge) it is now 0800, aside from making a 3 minute call, reading a few emails, and receiving a couple texts. I have dropped from 100% to 68%!!!! That is nuts,

The one thing i have noticed is that it seems to constantly transfer data over 3G (the arrows go on and off every 5 seconds or so. this occurs regardless if im on 3g or GSM only) when i check task killers the only thing running is launcherpro and task manager. ANy suggestions?

I am rooted, stock everything, no custom roms etc.

Update:

It was completely dead after 4.5 hours of minimal use, I have Tried the GSM only..it may give me an extra half hour, I dont understand this... How can people get the usage/battery life they are stating, and im getting half that basically on standby? Will a factory reset work?(i really dont want to go through the trouble to do a factory reset if it isnt going to help.

thanks in advance for your help
[Vibrant General] SamsungVibrant:
My battery life definitely improved with JK6. Wonder how JL4 will be.
[Vibrant General] runal:
I had a lot of battery problems with JI6. During sleep, inactive, I used to lose %4.5 per hour with JI6. Now I have Nero 3 with Super IO Kernel, I lose %0.5 per hour when inactive.
[Vibrant General] lolcopter:
i'm on nero beta 2 still. i use titanium to freeze all DRM services, visual voicemail (i use google voice), and media hub. i usually get 24-30 hours with normal use, sometimes more. can make it a full day with heavy use, easily. i usually charge the phone via usb because i tether a lot, and because of that the phone gets topped off fairly frequently.

granted, most of this was accumulated over last night, but i'm at 90% battery right now with the phone off the charger for 12h 26m.

edit: this is also with sync and 3g always on. use wifi when at work. brightness usually left on auto
[Vibrant General] aamir123:
Hey everybody, Im new to the android scene, just got my vibrant less than a month ago. Before that I had an Iphone 3g. So far I like the phone but the battery life is horrible. When I surf the internet on wifi or 3g I noticed that I use like 3-5% in a matter of 5 mins. Is this normal? I consider myself to be a light-moderate user and have been getting and average of 12 hours or so on my vibrant. Also if it makes any difference when my phone is idle or being used my temperature runs around the high 80's low 90's but when being charged it drops to the low 80's or high 70's. What is going on? How can I get more 20 hours on my phone? With the iphone I used to get an easy 15 hours and still have like 40-50% remaining.
[HD2 General] Camusa:
Hey there,

When I had to do my last hard reset the only proggy I could not find was the original version of the game "SET."

I thought I got it in these forums, but regardless I cannot find it anywhere.

Help?
[HD2 General] Snarksneeze:
I googled "Windows Mobile Game SET" and got this result:

http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-igrecway-set-game.html

You should bookmark "freewarepocketpc.net" and "freewareppc.com", both are awesome resources for Windows Mobile Apps :D
[HD2 General] Camusa:
I use the site all the time!

I appreciate the link, but unfortunately this is an updated version. I had the original, low res, quirky, buggy, very hard, I love it version... :D

I swear I found it on XDA...maybe it was pocketnow. DAMN.
[Touch HD General] samizzlah:
Hey, I downloaded [XDANDROID][2.2][AOSP][17.09.10]FRX01 to my Blackstone and installed it as usual to SD Card with latest rootfs and kernel and its very slow compared to earlier versions.

I have tried both with and without the overclock command and there is no change in speed. What can this depend on? :confused:
[Touch HD General] afr33s:
Why start a new thread and not ask in the appropriate build thread? You will probably get your answer there!

[Touch HD General] Tesla84:
too slow

Hello. (just a pre-read FYI, I have that problem but no answer yet)

I have the same problem on my htc p3700(Diamond 100).

I've searched everywhere, no answer.

I've also done the same, and updated the appropriate files. Even using the overclock method and hardware 3D, which of course didn't help the incredible LAG that I'm having with XDANDROID 2.2 AOSP 25.10.10 FRX02.

I've also installed the latest Launcher Pro and it feels a bit faster navigating the menu's, but overall slow compared to (XDA) Cleir 2.1, which blew my mind how fast it loaded the Gallery and how smooth and responsive it was, this one won't allow access to storage card via Gallery, although that's been addressed with formating the sd card(internal storage in Diamond) which is a pain in the azz and not worth doing since this version isn't final yet.

Someone help!?
[Touch HD General] samizzlah:
I use builds by Neopeek now, much faster, try SuperFroyo or FRG83 builds by Neopeek, very fast!! :D
[Touch HD General] congo:
why did you try FRX01 instead of FRX02?

i was try Froyo2.2, but after a week it will always hang.

then i want to try FRX02, even the first day is hang.

i want to to Neopeek one's,

but it need to format my SD,

and i have tried but can successed.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pistol_panic:
Hoping for some help here... new to post but been a reader for awhile.

I had been running Virtuous 2.7 with the custom kernal for a couple of days when my location somehow switched to showing me in Portland. I'm in Phoenix. I have tried re-wiping all data/cache/davlik and also tried loading up Skyraider 3.0, as well as un-rooting and going back to stock and am having the same results. Also have the 2.15 radio. GPS, HTC clock widget, all showing Portland. Any ideas?

Is there a RUU file for the nexus?

How can i get it to work - please reply in simple mode and with links instructions

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwazynit:
I apologize if this has been answered but I have been searching and have not been able to find a response.

Is it possible for me to install the stock froyo build on my htc evo? Presumably, I would be able to but would flash the evo radio's vs the N1.

Please let me know. Thanks in advance for the help!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EyeslikeOlives:
CM6 would be AOSP Android Froyo. Not sure if its the exact same thing as what the N1 has but it is stock Android.

Follow the guides in the Development section to root and NAND unlock your phone, then on the step where you flash a ROM use CM6 (which is also in the development section) and there you go. Make sure to flash the appropriate radios and a third party kernal if you want.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iTz Tater:
Go to the Evo 4G Android Development sub section and loom up CyanogenMod, it's stock FroYo with some goodies, just please read the install instructions before trying anything.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwazynit:
Appreciate the help. Not sure what you mean by AOSP? Also, instead of the CM roms (which are very good, I have used them on the N1), is there any way to get the official google or stock froyo build running on the evo?

I apologize if I misunderstood your suggestion.

Thanks
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Award Tour:
AOSP = Android Open Source Project.

CM basically takes the Android source adds hardware support for the devices they develop for and compile it. So it's not as easy as getting stock/AOSP Froyo and running it.

Would this have the Android market and official Google apps?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] housry23:
No. It doesn't come with them, but the good news is there is a separate download called gapps.zip to flash that will give you official google apps and market.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glensta:
If I do a Nandroid backup, does it backup the kernel, lag fix, & rom? In other words, if I switch to a different rom, kernel, & lag-fix, and then want to nandroid back to where I was before, will the nandroid reinstall the old kernel, rom, & lag-fix?

I tried listening to a game this sunday and did not get an audio stream. Anyone else?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] neodorian:
Just a heads-up...there are also a few sites that regularly run feeds of all the NFL games. Since they use Flash video, guess what phone plays them perfectly :D I got to watch the Ravens (lose) on the way home from the shore this past Sunday. It was nice.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] rujelus22:
Which sites do you use?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] neodorian:
Well, while I don't claim to be innocent of watching unlicensed streams every now and then, I'm not gonna go posting them here ;) Seriously I found one good site after a single Google search and it has had all of the games so far. Basically just links to different people streaming their capture card input on any one of the popular live streaming sites. It's silly that they make it so hard to watch games when it's obviously no replacement for a real HD channel but then again charging out the ass is the hallmark of professional sports so I guess I shouldn't be surprised. Gotta sell those overpriced Sunday Ticket packages somehow...
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] tonyh703:
ya i know, i just miss havin the NFL app and thought people would appreciate having it. A lot of the apps out there are just basically links to web pages, having the app is just a convenience
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] tonyh703:
I just got the app yesterday (Monday) so I havent had a chance to watch the games. NFL Network streams flawlessly though

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] neodorian:
Very true and I'm fine with that but I don't always feel like doing all kinds of hacks to get a Verizon app authorized on my phone when I could just bookmark a page. To each his own I guess.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] knives of ice:
this works for menial tasks like seeing scores, but streaming crashes my phone running baked snack after awhile. trying to watch redzone on sunday after awhile the program crashes and the only way to get things back to normal is to pull the battery.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Scnd2no1:
I've been trying to run it in 4G but it doesn't log in at all. But as far as running in 3G I can watch view and do anything without any issues. Kinda sucks but I love having the app again.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] tonyh703:
gotcha, I do that with most stuff, actually like the LIVE TV app just streams to "one of those web pages", so in that sense the app is pretty much useless, just bookmark the pages. I just miss that NFL app on my Sprint phone!!!!!!!!!!!

Awesome, I was bummed when Sprint launched that piece of crap update to their NFL app; looked like a kids toy. I just got my Evo purring and this app was on my wish list. Thanks for posting!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Rippley05:
I actually like the new sprint football app... they really can't do much more than what they have done with it since they lost the rights to the nfl games.

I also love the NFL app... I just know it is temporary and will have to be redone all the time =| I did actually watch my skinz beat the boys on my phone from start to finish without any issues other than hitting deadspots for a signal..was great!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] thisguyinoc:
This app works great. Occasionally cuts out here and there, but not bad for the price! ;)

I was bummed to see that Sprint lost the sponsorship to Verizon, glad this works.

So is there any charges or other terms not mentioned as far as paying for this app monthly or is it completely free?

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xlittle_lambx:
I'll preface this thread by saying that I've look all over to help me remedy my problem, but I have not found anything that has resolved my issue. I've tried all the combinations of the the manual buttons to bootloader mode and download mode, and it will not work as my firmware is not the current Bell hardware burron fix (I have the old JH2 firmware, w/o the updated SPL)

What prompted this is that I was trying to reinstall the default android clock app that I deleted on accident. I had downloaded some default apps that were pulled from the Samsung Epic 4G (can't post URLs properly due to my user limitations, thread here: xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=773142) thinking that the apks in there are the same. I tried installing but that failed. That should have been a red flag, but I wanted to have the clock app back. So what I did next is what I regret. I copied and pasted the AlarmClock.apk and AlarmClock.odex to the systems\app folder using Root Explorer. It wasn't until I rebooted my phone that this problem occurred.

I know that my phone isn't completely bricked as I can still see the battery icon when I plug it in to charge...and the phone does load the start up screen, but it won't get past that and will black out and the capacitive LED buttons (menu and back) will stay lit.

I've been diligent in backing up my information on my home computer (I'm at work now), so data loss is no problem for me. What I would really want is to fix this. My last resort is to return tot the store and get an exchange, which I really don't want to do.

Help is greatly appreciated.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lgkahn:
you cannot install/copy (which have .odex file) apps from other firmware versions becuase the .odex is encrypted for a particular version.. if you pasted to system/app and it is a critical app from wrong version you will hang/freeze phone.. try to get into download mode and reflash the firmware..

Do you have access to the phone over adb?

Adb reboot download?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xlittle_lambx:
I've read about the ADB Reboot Recovery, but it mentions that my phone has to be on USB debugging mode to work, which I believe is not on =/

Is there a link where I can download to try anyways? I've searched fro it, but I'm not sure if what i searched is the right thing.

I cannot get the download mode to work as the combinations I've been using do not even register...the phone just keeps looping the Samsung Galaxy i9000M screen when I hold the buttons...like it's in perpetual reboot mode. Like I stated earlier, the hardware buttons do not seem to work. I have the old JH2 firmware that was updated from Keis that does not have the hardware button fix.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lgkahn:
this should work if you take battery out hold down all three buttons and when you first see logo release power button for 1 sec. then repress.

also try it with and without usb plugged in.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aery:
For adb u need the android software development kit (sdk). Its available at developers.android.com. Simply run sdksetup and choose sdk tools.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xlittle_lambx:
I gave adb (great tool btw) a try, got it to run in command prompt, but I get an error saying device not found. Unfortunately, I did not have USB debugging mode on prior to my phone's screen blacking out on me. I should mention that I have a Bell Mobility Galaxy S I9000M, and hardware button attempts for any mode (volume up and/or down + home + power on, in a multitude of combinations, e.g. USB connected/disconnected) , be it recovery or download, have been futile as that method is not in the firmware I have one my phone. I'll have to use my last resort and get an exchange for the phone at the store I got it from. With any luck, hopefully someone who works there will have the magic touch and revive my phone. *crosses fingers*

Thanks for all the helpful suggestions. I'll keep them in mind to not let this happen again. Thank goodness for my constant backups instilled in me during my Windows Mobile days.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aarondroid:
When the phone is ON firmly press volume up + home + power. It will reboot. Keep holding them! Wait a half a second after the gti9000 logo appears then let go of the power button. Keep holding volume up and home! This should boot you into recovery. Try it a few times. I found it is all in the timing of letting go of the power button.

Hope this helps!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aarondroid:
Also, I had an i9000 in your state and even after I had it previously working with Android SDK and the Samsung USB driver (essential in Windows but not included the SDK) but after I messed up the ROM (trying to lagfix it) it stopped responding to adb commands on either OSX or Windows. Boot recovery from the aforementioned hotkey combination seemed to be the only way to fix it. But I am a n00b. I'm only passing on what I experienced.

Cheers,

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrDee:
One of my friends has just given me his i9000 in the same state to see if I can fix it, he has been quoted $300NZ to repair!

He says he did it trying to flash a rom after successful root.

I get the galaxy splash screen but no matter how i hold and release the aforementioned keys I just dont get anything all.

ADB returns no device found and not seen by ODIN.

Tried many battery pulls, reboot + three keys and releasing/releasing-reapplying power button at various times during the splash screen. And with/without USB connected.

Pretty sure the device did have USB debugging enabled before this.

I am watching this thread closely, if I fix it I get a box of beer!

[THEME] ★★Apple 'ipad' WVGA Windows Mobile 6.5.x theme★★ by Jeffrey2000

UPDATED at 19-9-2010 22:45:

Coming up next.... a theme inspired by Apple's ipad theme... here's a picture in advance how it's gonna be...

Remember this is NOT a HTC sense theme, I just happen to have this installed already and like it together with my windows mobile theme!!!

If you want it like this you can better install NRG's 6.5.3/Dinik (in my case omnia 2/i8000) rom and apply my theme after, you can have this views via Cookie's home editor / edit home layout and drag&drop the interface as how you want it to be.

DON't FORGET TO PUT THIS THEME AS DEFAULT or nothing will change :p

Drop a few lines if you like it (or not) :P

+ this theme includes an Apple styled on/off switch!! :)

UPDATED at 20/09/2010 00:19:

And

here

's the cab file for now...

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

UPDATED at 21-9-2010 23:16:

Upped the same theme but now with blue buttons, theme can be d/l

here

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

UPDATED at 02-10-2010 21:00:

Made some adjustments to the theme like the buttons and some other things:

v1.1 includes:

- new improved buttons

- new improved scrollbar

- new improved selection bar

- new improved messagebox title

- new improved shelf/icon dock

version 1.1 can be downloaded here

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

Just uploaded v1.2, changes:

-fixed the button color + shadow

-fixed the softkeybar messagebox (toast)

-fixed the shelf/dock (softkeybar)

-fixed the radio buttons

So just to be clear, please read this clear!:

This is NOT a Sense, Manila, Titanium or CHT theme which I made that's all Dinik's work. I've made the Windows Mobile theme... like the scrollbar, softkey buttons, pushbuttons, taskbar, softkeybar, checkboxes, radiobuttons, comboboxes, selections etc. all within Windows and ofcourse the portrait/landscape background so you don't need anything else in fact.
