Cool post dude. Thanks for taking the time. The whole HTC thing makes sense now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] NeedlePhreak:
How is the install gonna be for rls5? Because I can't installed rls4 for the life of me. Its some sort of verification error. I tryed wiping everything. I'm running cyan0gen mod 6.1.2

But haven't I haven't been able to change my rom at all.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mlin:
Thanks frankpreyes. This is very useful information indeed. I guess for me the cost to replace the battery more frequently is worth the added life on a day-to-day basis. Besides, who uses a cell phone for 5 years anyway? Especially around here... :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Karl:

[EVO 4G Android Development] tuscolavol:
See... that's what I'm talking about. I, for one, have enjoyed this thread more than any other I've ever participated in. I'm sure, for some, that staying on topic strictly about the rom is preferable, but for me, I get so much info/knowledge from this thread. I've always wondered the facts about the battery. If you look around there dozens of opinions about what is best for battery life. But in this awesome thread, I get an expert's advice. I can take it or leave it. Same for kernels, radios, customizations... and more. Add to that the spirit of helpfulness and you can't beat it. Doesn't hurt that we also have the best, by a mile, rom as icing on the cake.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jessekin32:
Anyone mind telling the secret to good battery life with this rom? I'm running setcpu for screen off (124ish MHz) along with battery percentages, temp and charging. Is there a specific kernel that gives the best battery life?
[EVO 4G Android Development] slugbug2010:
Thanks Frank!

I thought I had read that discharging LP batteries was bunk, but now this confirms it (plus the link ziggy posted). Also that charging the battery right out of the box before using - doesn't hold any weight. I had also read that while LP batteries do not have a memeory, they do have an "age".

While I don't mind using the sbc tweak (as another said - who is gonna have this same battery in a year anyway?), I jsut haven't had as much luck with it as I have with other kernels ASIDE from the 5-10% add to the top.

I don't agree with another poster that says htc kernels uck. htc17 is good. Really good.

Speaking of.....Frank - weren't you going to post more results on that :D?

HOT FLASH...HOT FLASH...HOT FLASH... ;)

Someone said earlier that AR lets you restore individual components of your backup (as Clockwork does), and this is true, BUT...

Only if you back each up individually!!! This is insane...you know how long that'd take?

At least in CWM, you do one back-up, then choose which component you wanna restore under Advanced Restore.

I know by now you all think I'm a CWM fanboy, and I guess I am because of this one feature alone...

Go ahead...take your shots...I can take it!!!

:rolleyes:
[EVO 4G Android Development] slugbug2010:
Check my sig for some kernel advice, but in summary - no one kernel is going to be the best for everyone. You will get the best battery life out of managing your battery - there are LOTS of battery saving tips out there that do not requirre turning off syncing, mobile data, etc.

I am a big fan of htc17 because it works *fine* (if not great) and gets better over time. No lag, no screen tear, stable, reliable, predictable.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xlGmanlx:
ecstatic fanboyism aside :D, how often do you really need to backup your wimax? do it one time, burn to cd/store on hard/etc and be done with it.

[EVO 4G Android Development] lazerus06:
Instead of a Myn-ion

I want to be a Myn - anite .

Out of curiosity, what does Myn do for a living? Reason I ask is that he and a lot of the other ROM developers on XDA are super talented in implementing design choices in the UI. They should be working for the handset makers(i.e. HTC, Samsung, LG, etc..) because the work they do blows away what comes stock with most of these phones.
[EVO 4G Android Development] frankpreyes:
As soon as my work stops interfering with my hobby, I'll post the results of today's PRI change tomorrow.

I usually like to give each change at least two days, so I can see if any trends occur.

The first day's heavy use with HTC 17 was 28.1% better than HTC 15. The second days results are 38.9% better. Slopes are -9.3 for day 1 and -7.9 for day 2 (Yesterday) VS a slope of -12.94 for HTC 15. These negative numbers are change in battery % per hour.:D

I just noticed, I gotta change my signature now!
[EVO 4G Android Development] weezymagic:
So as far as I know, I do not have the latest radios. I'm loving else 4 . That being said I do Med to heavy use and wish the battery lasted longer like most people. Even with setcpu I have to charge twice daily. I'm hoping r5 is better with this. Also, I hear you need certain radios for a kernel so I hope municipal does a nice little tutorial or FAQ concerning this for the less than elite of us.

Thank you again municipal and everyone for the hard work and AWESOME rom

Where could I could i find these tips? :) Or could you tell me a few of the big ones yourself? and thank you for that link about the kernel.
[EVO 4G Android Development] powered195:
So i see for rls5 you don't need to update your radios, but what is the advantage if everything is working fine?

Sent from this sh!t called the EVO?
[EVO 4G Android Development] xlGmanlx:
radios have the potential for better connection thus better battery life, however whatever works best for you is what you should use
[EVO 4G Android Development] HDRules:
Awesome information frank - thanks! But this makes me rethink the whole battery recalibration process. On a new kernel I always wipe the battery stats, put in a fully charged battery, and then run it down until the phone turns off by itself.

Am I harming the battery by doing this? Maybe it would be better to wipe the battery stats but not run the battery all the way down? Any thoughts?
[EVO 4G Android Development] MadDogMaddux:
Not cool dude. Now I have to clean my shorts....

:p
[EVO 4G Android Development] slugbug2010:
There are battery tips linked from post #3 on this thread.

For ME, the big ones are (these are things I ALWAYS double check after I flash a rom or reformat) - sign out of Talk if you do not use, uncheck Always On Mobile Data, double check your Sync settings - only sync what you need (I have gmail sync, but FB only syncs once per day because it auto refreshes when I open it anyway). Check your running services and make sure nothing is running in the background that shouldn't ( I have a lot that runs, but I know what they all are). Use wifi whenever possible. I use Y5 app and have locations set up so that it auto detects and auto shuts off when I enter and leave the wifi area.

Biggest battery drain is weak signal. If you aren't getting a good signal your battery will be toast. IMO - that is why a lot of people have bad battery drain at work/during the day - they are in a building and the signal sucks. I sit near a window and get both 3 and 4g signals just fine.

OK folks, Get ready. Tonights the night...

Myn has already popped his head on the channel #htc-evo.

I have already done my Nandroid, I also have done My Backup Pro. I have flashed the new Aman_ra 2.2.

I am sitting at the edge of my seat.... Lurking on the channel....

Remember tonight on Freenode.net #htc-evo gets it first....

[EVO 4G Android Development] Stajdanley:
Really interesting stuff. Thank you for sharing--concerns like that are why I haven't tried those kernels out yet... I got a Seidio 3500 instead-Throw it on the charger every three days and I'm good to go ;) Thanks, Dude!

On another topic, I flashed CWM through ROM Manager today, then immediately flashed RA2.1.1 through ROM Manager. Verified RA updated and was working. Messed around on the phone for an hour or so, not flashing anything, then booted into recovery, but *gasp* there was no recovery anymore. Repeated the first steps and it's back... very strange. Just thought I'd throw it out there... seemed odd.
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
just upgraded to ra 2.2.1, making a nandroid right now, will be backing up apps in a sec. highly looking forward to rls5.
[EVO 4G Android Development] slugbug2010:
I have made 2 androids - 1 each from each recovery method. I have backed everything up on My Backup Pro, Titanium and I have synced with App Brain. I moved stuff off my sd card and onto the pc that I don't want for tonight. I did a clean wipe of all data only a few days ok so I won't be doing that tonight. I've deleted unused apps and frozen others.

I have plans this evening but I imagine I'll be up wellllll past a decent hour to flash the new release.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Cypriot00:
Same thing happened to me. The only solution is flashing the Amon RA's Recovery from a zip file and not trust ROM Manager.

Just to kill some time and distract us all...that's the punchline to my all-time favorite joke:

At a sex symposium for men the speaker asks "How many of you have sex every day?"

A bunch of hands go up, mostly the young guys.

"How many of you have sex at least once a week?"

More hands go up.

"How many of you have sex at least a few times a month?"

Less hands.

"How many of you have sex every 6 months or so?"

Fewer hands.

"How many of you have sex only once a year?"

A guy in the back starts jumping up and down screaming, ME! ME! ME!

"Sir, you have sex once a year and you're this excited?"

(wait for it, if you don't see it coming...)

"TONIGHT'S THE NIGHT!!!!!"

See...for a few minutes you forgot about Release 5 Final...;)

(Yeah, not me either...)
[EVO 4G Android Development] frankpreyes:
Yes, but it is all relative. You can purchase an Evo battery for $10.00 nowadays. However this is a relatively small portion of the total cost of operation. It is worse to stay constantly at 100% battery charging, than to run your battery dead, once in a while. Both diminish battery life. Remember the 1 and 5 years I quoted are for aerospace quality LP batteries. Commercial batteries will not fare as well, but they also do not cost several thousand dollars.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MadDogMaddux:
Yeah, I figured it was something I did in NM, but I did so little...That's what is weird to me. Question: should I allow it to zipallign? I said know for the framework_res, and that's when it started giving me crap.

All I had tried to do at that point was change the color of the lockbar and then the notifier bar. *shrug* I'll get everything settled and NANDed and then have a go again.
[EVO 4G Android Development] checkawrz:
I hate asking questions that have probably been answered before a million times, but what do you do when you 'move stuff off my SD card'?

Are you referring to all the mods/kernels you had on there? And does that mean you're gonna wipe EVERYTHING before flashing RLS5 tonight? Does flashing everything mean SD card included?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Stajdanley:
Yeah, it was really strange. I usually either do a flashable zip or push the image file from ADB. I tried pushing the file for 2.2 this morning and I kept getting 'error reading sd card' or something along those lines, and pressed for time before work just took the easy RM route... all is well now on 2.1.1 through RM, but it was just kind of unusual...

However, I'm totally bummed that I'll be working during the release. I have to wait until midnight... humbug.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Persnlmgr:
After I finished, I said YES to everything, including ZipAlign, so that may very well be where you went wrong.

You got til tonight to play with it, though, so have at it...;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] cirehawk:
Okay slug (and anyone else who cares to chime in), I'm gonna cheat a little bit here. I haven't been on much the last week or so, but I know there were a lot of recovery issues. Since people are commenting that they are upgrading their recovery versions, am I to assume things have shaken out a bit? Give me the cliff's note version of the situation now. :) Ny the way, I'm on the original amon_ra 1.8 version and my mtd block size (or erase size) is 20K.

I have a 32gb sd card so I don't worry about having a bunch of stuff on there I don't want or need any more, but do try to clean it up when I can so I'm not having to wade through it when I flash stuff. Yes - like mods and kernels. So when I "'move stuff off my SD card" I drag it to a folder on my laptop. If I know I've already backed the Evo up to the laptop, then I might go through Astro and delete zip files I don't want or need right now.

No I don't plan on wiping data (i.e. everthing) to flash rls 5 unless Myn suggests we do so. However I am aware if I start to have any problems that will be the one of the first ways I trouble shoot it. I wiped data a few days ago so I'm starting with a pretty clean slate. And with all of the backups I have, if I NEED to wipe data, I am prepared.

I think it is best - in general - to wipe data/factory reset when installing a rom update, but it's not always necessary. It used to take me forever to get things back running, but now (thanks to others suggestions here) I have it down to about 30 minutes and then a little longer to re-customize my home screens.
[EVO 4G Android Development] 1975jamie:
everyone on here complains about battery life but ever since the 3.70 has come out my battery life has been the balls. I new go though a whole day of heavy email and texting and still have about 40% by the end of the day. Like right now i am at 64% and the phone has been on 9 hours with or 50 emails and about 25 text. I have search the web download stuff and chat on google all day.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
Some people are moving the items from their SD card to their PCs or MacBooks because they want to reformat the card. It is not a requirement. As for flashing the rom, if you've tested the beta, you do not have to do a data reset, however, it would be very wise if you at least wipe the cache & dalvik cache. Personally, I wipe my device completely before flashing a new rom. It is a cleaner install, nothing to get crossed with the previous install and I feel better doing it that way.
