Hey guys I woke up this morning to find out that my phone is turned off. I tryed to turn it on but it simply didn't react. Then I pluged it on the charger, the led turned on and only then I managed to turn it on. When it turned on the battery was on 0%!!! When I went to sleep it was around 50-60%. I never had battery issues on RC7, on the contrary it was great. I know that one user already wrote about this but I simply couldn't find his post in this "over crowded" topic. Is this a known issue or what?
[Desire Android Development] cpt.bert:
RC 7 not so smooth

I feel that stock rom was smoother than this RC 7, i formatted the sd card, non of that partitioning stuff but just wipe all data and did all the wipes of factory reset and dalvik cache.

What should i do to make it more speedy?
[Desire Android Development] suiller:
nothing... you tried almost everything :rolleyes:

Navigon Select can be used on Gingerbread:

[Desire Android Development] cpt.bert:
Well that sucks...
[Desire Android Development] CrazyCypher:
I had stock rom for a long time. Then something went wrong and I had to format my phone. I wanted something as close as stock rom as it could be, so I used Leedroid (back then 2.2 version)

It was blazingly fast, better than stock rom. I used that almost whole time till gingerbread came out. Then I installed Oxygen, and I must say, its the fastest, cleanest ROM i've ever used, smooth as silk, in leedroid there was some chopping sometimes while scrolling, but here never, except of course browser. With iNexus theme, the icons are colored, everything with more color, gives gingerbread more life in it (not battery life lol) ;) And Im very happy with it, never got a reboot, freeze or bootloop. Of course I power it off and then back on now and then. Im very happy with it, and also it will be improved when google release nexus one update
[Desire Android Development] htcmartin:
THX..

BUT I have question, many people written, then kernel. 35 is better, becouse copy on SDcard si faster..

?????????
[Desire Android Development] DownMyWay:
Try using root uninstaller from the market.
[Desire Android Development] cullenswood:
Hi,

Will Oxygen ever have an FM Radio that does not need to activate Bluetooth in order to run. I use my FM Radio a lot, but find that with Bluetooth activated aswell it causes a major drain on battery life.

I know on Sense ROMS it does not turn on Bluetooth when using FM Radio.

This is a deal breaker for me with this ROM and really like everything else in it so far.
[Desire Android Development] mastersjef:
That is the only issue with 2.6.37.

Send from my GB ;-)
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
Are you really sure that it's not activated in Sense ROMs? FM Radio and Bluetooth share the same chip. So BT has to be activated to use FM Radio. But Sense ROMs could be that "intelligent" to hide that from the user...
[Desire Android Development] cullenswood:
I would not claim to know enough to be 100% sure it is not used in Sense ROMS. If Sense is hiding its use it is doing a good job about it as it does not show up anywhere and does not seem to be constantly scanning for devices.
[Desire Android Development] fr0sty:
This is the first rom i installed, looks nice and fast.

The only problems so far:

- When i answer a call, people dont hear the first seconds. I have to wait a little before i start talking

- Sometimes i have to press the power button 3 or 4 times, before the screen will turn on.

But I can live with these problems, i like a rom like this, nice and clean :)

Just click the dedicated 'Search' key on the bottom right of your handset and start typing the contacts name. Same thing, different method.

Edit: Oops. Same answer already provided :-b

Hi,

I have a notification for sms that I don't know how to remove:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/13533723/snap20110131_132653.png

1st notification is from my message app, and I can activate or desactivate it (works with handcent or stock sms app)

2nd one is from ????

when I read the message, 2nd notification doesn't dissapear

When I click on it, it goes to the stock sms app, and notification dissapears, even if I haven't read the message

I tried to uncheck every possibilities in the stock sms app, but this notification is still here

anyone knows where is it from?

thanks!
[Desire Android Development] logicalextreme:
Sure you made a hardlink and not a symlink? It bounces out on me because they're on different partitions. I've tried with a symlink for now and it looks to be okay. I'm just hoping that nothing goes amiss in recovery, because /data usually isn't mounted by default in recovery and I know recovery likes to stick logs in /cache.

Edit: /cache is still being remounted from yaffs2 on boot. I'm assuming you had to edit init.rc and recovery.rc?
[Desire Android Development] CrazyCypher:
Did you restore your messages? If yes, I get this message also until I open every thread in messaging app, then its gone ;)
[Desire Android Development] cailloup:
hum ... actually I receive the notification each time I receive a message!

I didn't restore my messages, I tried to delete every thread, but notification still comes when I receive a new message :(
[Desire Android Development] sotix:
Have you disabled the notification in the standard message app?

I got double up when I put in handscent app.

And the RC7 rom is little faster than rc6.

Or it is what I feel right now.

Great release! :)
[Desire Android Development] MisterMonitor:
why Long press volume button - next song " doesnt work ?
[Desire Android Development] Indomitable:
I have the same problems I'm hopping that these issues will disappear after N1 OTA
[Desire Android Development] dgrouch:
Screen should be off.
[Desire Android Development] Originalas:
Installed Redux because of camera.. but it seems now, that this clean, fast concept totally didn't work with Oxygen. Redux is a lot smaller, faster, with hacked camera and even noticebly better battery efficiency.

Did you ever see 310MB free on oxygen, or 3 days work time? I guess not. I guess OTA kinda sux then..? Ant still hacked ROMS are 'cleaner', faster, better. :p
[Desire Android Development] scienty:
Awesome bro. Feeling like hitting my head to the wall, I never noticed the search button on my mobile even after using it for 6 months. :-)
[Desire Android Development] logicalextreme:
Okay, what gives? How did you achieve this, and are you absolutely sure that the link persisted into a ROM boot?

I would imagine the simplest way would be to change the mount line in init.rc to mount-bind or symlink /cache to /data/cache, but there's no editing init.rc permanently without taking apart and recompiling the ramdisk. A secondary script could be added to run at the same time as a2sd kicks in to trash /cache and recreate it, but might that not be a little late in the game? Would /cache already be in use by then?

I don't like to say it, but...pics or it didn't happen!
[Desire Android Development] mle86:
I have the same problem, but only since I upgraded from RC6 to RC7.

I'm using radio 5.09.05.30_2.

It's not a big deal though, I think I'll wait unitl N1 OTA before testing different radios and stuff.
[Desire Android Development] MisterMonitor:
I now . Screen is off, but it still doesnt work
[Desire Android Development] Caspian3011:
It is practicaly impossible to get an answer here recently. I guess that my problem, which I wrote in the quote above, is caused by a boot loop which drained the battery during the night. Does anyone have any other ideas? If this was the case than this was my first boot loop on RC7.
[Desire Android Development] bunnybash:
I lost the type clock widget, can anyone point me in the right direction to get it again?

If someone could check the name of it for me that would be great!
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
It's hard to tell anything without any logs, wittnesses, information about apps you are using, network coverage, etc.
[Desire Android Development] logicalextreme:
I'm also hearing more and more about this being a problem in the AOSP for 2.3 itself. I haven't looked into it yet (shame on me) but have heard that it has happened with the Nexus S on occasion too. I've never had a bootloop but I have crashes coming out of my ears. I'm trying the cache-increase idea mentioned above.

OJ too slow

hi guys

i wonder if somebody found a way to fix this...

when i want to use the OJ to move the cursor in a text that i am editing, it only moves with one symbol each time i touch the OJ, no matter how i slide my finger over it.. it is always one symbol... its kind of annoying, because if the text is long, it will be kind of stupid, when you have to slide like crazy over the OJ, just to reach the other side... well there is of course the "new" function, to use the touch screen, but i and i suppose many of you are used to handle scrolling with the OJ... so .. has anybody figured it out?
[Desire Android Development] SimonVT:
It is practically impossible to give an answer when all the information you get is "my battery drained fast".

Adding contacts to phone

Is there a way for adding a new contact to the phone, it now forces me to choose a mailaccount. With 'sense' i could just choose to add a new contact to the phone.
[Desire Android Development] Yorzua:
Obviously you cannot compare Oxygen ( AOSP ) rom with Sense roms _ if it can help you, i had sense running and i can perfectly tell you the +/- points.

To keep it short, Oxygen and Gingerbread are much improved on the contacts.

Indeed you need to setup a Gmail account at the beginning, it is all the "sense" of Google to manage Android by a simple mail account ( backups ).

Try to save a contact on your Sim card in Sense with a picture .... you just cant.

Try it now on Oxygen ;)
[Desire Android Development] MightySashiman:
am i the only one having ridiculously low usb transfer rates ? (espcially computer->device ~700kb/s...)

My card is a kingston 16gb class10, freshly reformated (default alloc unit size in windows), works perfectly at full speed when accessed through a card reader, but freaking snailspeed when accessed through my device... :/

using RC7 by the way, no A2SD extra ext3/4 partition rubbish nor I/O script thing (device NAND uses alpharev's Oxygen partition layout)
[Desire Android Development] SimonVT:
Search/check the issue tracker.
[Desire Android Development] riogezz:
I had this problema after reflashing RC7 one more time.

A full wipe solved the problem in my case.. maybe give it a try.

Bye
[Desire Android Development] MightySashiman:
ok thx, found it. How do you deal with this issue ? do you just wait forever for file to transfer, or did you get a way past (i duno, maybe installing some different kernel ?...)

thx in advance !

cheers
[Desire Android Development] Caspian3011:
If you asked me to post some information I would have done it. I'm using the same radio and apps from the day RC7 came out. I am positive that this would happen earlier if the problem was in some application. I never had any kind of instability or battery drain from the first day. This was the first case of anything like it and an extreme one if I may add. This kind of battery draining can seriously "harm" it...
[Desire Android Development] psygbert:
redux is smaller? it cannot even fit yet on oxygen hboot. your guess is wrong. i see oxygen with 3+ days uptime.

hijacking thread isn't good. you're just trolling :-p
[Desire Android Development] CrazyCypher:
I heard that Google will firs fix nexus s restarts etc and then port gingerbread on nexus one, so it will be a lot of delay for nexus one OTA
[Desire Android Development] Yannn:
for psygbert

I'm laugthing !!!

and now i'm explaining :

compare quadrant results of redux and oxygen froyo ...

oups ... oxygen wins againt redux ... and I've test each other ... battery is a lot better on oxygen froyo than redux !
[Desire Android Development] Urool:
So i am trying to apply ext3/4 ... but through Clockwordmod Recovery it doesn't seem to work, because there is no option to "partionate SD"... any solutions?
[Desire Android Development] MisterMonitor:
Is "Long press volume key - next song" working for you ? Screen is off, but it still doesnt work.
[Desire Android Development] CrazyCypher:
rom manager
[Desire Android Development] donatinho:
,,Most part of battery goes for display and i hardly think any rom will ever makes a difference on it. Furthermore to really compare stats you should reproduce perfectly the same usage,which is very hard to do without a test laboratory. Quite often there's a good reason when battery discharges too quickly, like low umts or wifi signal, lots of apps synching and so on.
[Desire Android Development] SimonVT:
Works fine here.
[Desire Android Development] CrazyCypher:
working for me, winamp
[Desire Android Development] cailloup:
Hi,

[RC7]

When I receive a text message, I have an extra notification that I don't know who to disable

It looks like that:

and the notifications in the sms app is disabled

Someone knows how to remove that?

I tried to delete every messages, but it changed nothing

thanks
[Desire Android Development] MisterMonitor:
Why it doesnt work for me ? Maybe there's an option i Settings ? I tried in mixzing,poweramp, winamp. I really need this function :/
[Desire Android Development] reNppa:
why camera flash dont work?

tried auto and on @ settings.

And tried FxCamera app, dont work.

OG 0.2.1

SOFF N1Table

wiped all
[Desire Android Development] vybztymz:
I come in peace :D....to suggest that it may be worth trying out Tasker (if you haven't already) http://tasker.wikidot.com/profile-index. It enables you to set up profiles which can help in prolonging battery life.

;)
[Desire Android Development] BumAround:
Wow, easy, everybody.... :)

Really interested if @ngel can report back & share with us how batt life goes AFTER some tweaks. I suspect it's just a matter of tinkering around the settings.

For a ROM of this quality, I wouldn't mind the tweaking its settings a bit. Sorry, tried DeFrost and it's not suitable for my application.
[Desire Android Development] drew2d1:
6hr40min sleep last night. Battery unplugged at 100% woke to it being 88%.

Supervillain would barely move overnight. I'm fine with that though. This is slicker and is updated.

Any word on any fix to my camera shots deleting themselves when plugged into my computer?

[Desire Android Development] anoraknophobia:
Running these ROM since a few days and i am very happy with it.

Only thing i am unsure atm is the S-OFF part.

I did the Stock S-Off already. (Got the bootscreen with the joker :) )

Now i am unsure what happens when i flash the special Bravo N1Table.

Can i just do it like the instruction tells me or do i have to do something special ?
[Desire Android Development] avanray:
My browser also freeze nw cannot be use anymore
[Desire Android Development] x2srj:
I must need glasses, thanks :-)
[Desire Android Development] StillDRE:
The problem was fixed by setting the vibrator to run always unless in silent mode :)
[Desire Android Development] Serpente80:
Did you see any difference after the S-OFF ?
[Desire Android Development] AzureusPT:
S-OFF or not doesnt give you much difference, I suppose monstereo flashed N1Table S-OFF and that gives you several enhancements versus the normal S-OFF on this ROM due to the partition layout.
[Desire Android Development] ccy1985125:
it will update the partition table which lets you have more internal storage

Remember to verify the check sum before flashing the hboot img.

Flashing HBOOT will flash a critical part of your phone, if that gets corrupted, your phone WILL be bricked.

just follow the instructions http://alpharev.nl/
[Desire Android Development] ccy1985125:
can remove the apps that inside /system/app directly with root explore
[Desire Android Development] AzureusPT:
True! I forgot to mention that, but you could also achieve the same mastering a little adb... xD
[Desire Android Development] anoraknophobia:
Thx for the answer.

Which is the best way to check the md5 sum of my current hboot ?
[Desire Android Development] ThePanama:
I have the same setup as you and performed a clean install today of 0.2.1 and the camera flash is working fine.
[Desire Android Development] ThePanama:
download a checksum utility and run it against the file you downloaded and then check that against the checksum on the Alpharev site, if they are the same you are good to go, but only if they are EXACTLY the same!
[Desire Android Development] eruben:
I have huge battery drain. Cant uae even one day. There's two options: either ROM itself or Go Launcher. Does anyone have such kind of problem?
[Desire Android Development] psygbert:
what are you laughing at? did i say redux is better? i'm just replying to Originalas. please double check my post first before laughing and explaining blindly :-p
[Desire Android Development] :
It's nothing to do with the cache size.

As you correctly said, it's a bug in AOSP.
[Desire Android Development] :
Well, it isn't the ROM and it isn't Go launcher.

So it must be something else you have installed.
[Desire Android Development] :
Try the .35 kernel in my signature.
[Desire Android Development] eruben:
I used PowerTutor to check. After 8 hours at night i lost 16% (wifi and 3g off). 60% of it was used by Go Launcher.
[Desire Android Development] fx3000se:
I have encountered the following issue a few times now:

Booting RC7 3G/data and wifi work perfectly side by side. Leaving the phone for a few ours an then going out of wifi reach, no 3G/data connectivity. I can't reactivate 3G, at least not with QuickSettings. Have/had to reboot in order to get 3G connectivity back...

Anybody else?

Guys please help me to fix a "Long press volume key - next song" , because now its not working. It worked for me only on earlier version of oxygen, but now its not working, why?
[Desire Android Development] :
Well, it's clearly not a Go Launcher bug otherwise it would be doing that on my phone too.

I lose 8-10% in 8 hours with wifi and 3g on and sync on auto, which I consider to be more than acceptable.

It'll be your configuration.

Just how i imported my contacts into my oxygen rom now, i had an option for importing to the phone.

are the sound settings working for you in Oxygen settings? if I try to change attenuation in these settings it don' save.. is working for you?
[Desire Android Development] SimonVT:
And you of course took the time to check the issue tracker before posting here?
[Desire Android Development] pesho00:
After more than a month with Oxygen without any problem today had first boot loop ;)

Good that someone posts 3 keys restart procedure (Volume down, track pad + Power)
[Desire Android Development] davedes:
I've been on oxygen rom for over a month. I love the rom but the boot loops in RC7 are driving me nuts. Decided to try redux RC3.... all is running smooth, no boot loop yet, rom is lightning fast and camera works & battery is outstanding.... battery dropped 6% with 2 hours of solid use with 3G connected.
[Desire Android Development] :
Reboots are an AOSP bug, as the Nexus S suffers chronically from them. Google is testing a fix and will be releasing an OTA soon.

But you would have known that if you had read the issue in the issue tracker.

And btw, save your praise for Redux for that thread please, it's not relevant here.
[Desire Android Development] reddev0:
It world with stock music player, other apps would probably need the developer of the app to add support.
[Desire Android Development] davedes:
Where is the issue tracker dude?
[Desire Android Development] :
Oh man, someone else who won't read the first 2 posts by the developer of the ROM before posting in his thread.

It's in the second post.................:rolleyes:
[Desire Android Development] I RICHY I:
Is this the only rom which doesn't have a working camcorder? I've tried a few and this is the only one which doesn't work. Any ideas when this'll be fixed?
[Desire Android Development] I RICHY I:
Also, quiet hours doesn't work.
[Desire Android Development] :
Probably about the same time you learn to read the first post of the thread before posting.
