Hello,

my battery drains very fast. Also when I use my phone normal. Do you have any ideas to improve the battery life?
[Desire Android Development] FordT:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enhanced_Data_Rates_for_GSM_Evolution

I also saw it labelled 2.75G ;)
[Desire Android Development] J_B204:
Drop the brightness to as low as you can get away with.

Make sure none of your apps are syncing too often.

Install set CPU and set governor to interactive rather than on demand.

Check your battery monitor to see if any apps are using your battery too much.

Set wifi policy to never sleep and use wifi instead of 3g whenever you can.

What sort of battery life are you getting? Anything more than 1 day will moderate to heavy use is considered very good.

Hope this helps.

[Desire Android Development] Chillkroete_:
Maybe you wait until your battery is empty (0,0%) and then you charge it over night. This helped for me. My battery is know on 16% (in normal use) and i charged it in the night of friday to saturday.

Greetings
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
And I assume you switch to airplane mode over night and that you have disabled all data connections most of the time, am I right? :rolleyes:
[Desire Android Development] Chillkroete_:
No Airplane Mode ^^ and I use maybe 15 minutes per day my Internet Connection, to check Emails - Hmm then I called some thing like a hour and wrote about 30 sms :D - that the reason i write "in a normal use ;D

Did anyone get a reboot cycle suddenly? I got it twice since I started using the ROM (about 1 and half weeks ago).
[Desire Android Development] xaps:
No, nobody ever did. You must be doing something wrong. You should buy a Nexus S and see if that helps.
[Desire Android Development] mattharris26:
If you read back a few pages or tried using the search option you would find that this is a common AOSP problem and not ROM related.

http://code.google.com/p/oxygen-rom/issues/detail?id=507

Some people think manually rebooting phone once a day helps prevent this. Can't comment myself since I haven't experienced it at all...touch wood! :D
[Desire Android Development] focallength:
You lucky b*****d! I had a bootloop on charge the other night, just happened to be under my pillow. MAN my phone was hot in the morning! I had to leave it unplugged to cool down for a while before starting up again!

Tip: Don't ever put a phone under a pillow, for any reason.
[Desire Android Development] mattharris26:
Yeah it does sound like I've been quite lucky to not get one.

Got to ask though...why did you have your phone under your pillow?!
[Desire Android Development] focallength:
It sounds weird I know, but I have a routine of charging overnight. It usually makes it to the bedside table, but not on this one occasion.

Don't judge me for one mistake, as the politician's might say!
[Desire Android Development] focallength:
BTW Anyone who would rather their HTC Desire was not locked to a carrier (frequently abroad/selling on etc) can now unlock for free using this

I haven't used Oxygen in a while, just installed the new test build. Is the mount USB storage screen supposed to pop up automatically when you plug in the USB cable? I don't remember it doing it before
[Desire Android Development] itshotinhere:
Yes. There are probably 1000 posts discussing this already. Personally I have never experienced the random boot loop issues and have used RC7 since the day it was released. But...I do switch my phone off every night while it's charging. This seems to be a known workaround.
[Desire Android Development] itshotinhere:
WTF?! And exactly what percentage does your display say it has gobbled up with this kind of usage? I recently travelled to Sydney with the family overnight and just managed almost 2 days without a charge with light use (a dozen texts, 30 minutes wifi, 15 minutes of calls, 2 hours Bluetooth and very little 'screen on') and I was super impressed. You're talking +72 hours with your mentioned usage?
[Desire Android Development] Nodders:
AOSP Gingerbread or in general? Seriously doubt it if the latter.

I'm running rc 7 now and moving the dalvik cache to my sd card worked great with that script someone posted for me.

Now when I want to download something from market it always shows me an error saying that it had to close the android.process.media . That notification shows up several times pet minute.What exactly does that been? The download does not start and doesn't show up in the notification bar.thank you his for always being so helpful
[Desire Android Development] Richy Freeway:
I know what you mean, I think it only works if you double tap the page, not pinch.
[Desire Android Development] maxiv:
And I have two more questions:

All my text messages are gone now (coming from leedroid 2.3 d), can I somehow restore them? And is there a way to adjust the sensitivity settings of the brightness sensor of my screen?
[Desire Android Development] 10lexik:
For the text messages, i use "sms backup & restore" a free app from the market and it fully works !
[Desire Android Development] TheGhost1233:
Pinch to zoom, then double tap.
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
1. If you haven't made a backup of your text messaged before you wiped everything (with "SMS Backup & Restore" for example) then you won't have any chance to get them back.

2. Settings -> Display -> Automatic backlight
[Desire Android Development] mastersjef:
In the Oxygen settings u can activate the 2g/3g switch and viola also set the screen brightness to 40 or 60% Wifi advanced to always on........ good luck with that.

When im on the phone, i am not notified that someone else is calling me. There is no beep or anything to in form me of call waiting. Did i turn this setting off or something?

Ive searched the thread and the bug traker but no one has stated this issue.
[Desire Android Development] mastersjef:
Settings --> Phone/Call settings --> Add. settings --> call waiting
[Desire Android Development] zoltrix:
Thanks! Why the hell is this not enabled as defalt! lol
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
Maybe because most people don't like this feature?
[Desire Android Development] :
Because it's nothing to do with the ROM, it's enabled by your operator. That setting just sends a code to the operator to turn it on, if supported.

Once again, some bright spark insinuating that the ROM is at fault when it is actually your operator that doesn't enable it by default.
[Desire Android Development] zoltrix:
I'm not saying its the rom, im just saying with android in general.

EDIT: Yes i now know it's not Android, but it's the operator.

I've used other roms where it wasnt enabled either. calm down bro
[Desire Android Development] netomx:
Nevermind, I found the 2.2 Java APK. I will upload it in a sec to a new thread. Cheers
[Desire Android Development] :
Why would Android interfere with your operator settings by default? If your operator doesn't have it enabled by default, you have to turn it on yourself. That is the same on ANY mobile phone, whether it be a smartphone or dumbphone.

So I don't see where you are getting this notion that it's Android at fault here.

Btw, don't call me bro.

hi i have strange problem with the latest test build.. i can't install anything from market (2.2.11) cleared cache and restarted but still same. cleared cache and dalvik from recovery but it didn't helped.. any suggestion before i go back to rc7 ?:)

Try deleting the "android" folder on your SD-card then reboot and then try installing from market again.

I don't know if it's only Oxygen problem, but I don't find anything about it in web.

When I use Google Sky Map and I close this application after use orientation sensor starts to work in only two axes. When I open Sky Map or other application problem still exist. Only solution is to reset device. I have this problem in newest test edition and in other RCseries. Reset, and reinstallation of Oxygen doesn’t change it.

It's problem of Sky Map or Oxygen?

Boot loop

This might help AdamG or others who are more familiar with debugging.

I was looking through the forum and was happy that my phone has just had a reboot issue only once in last 20 days. When I was about to express my view in this forum using xda application, suddenly my phone re-booted(oxygen logo).(right now in that state)

I agree this has to be fixed by google but still might grab some interest among the devs as I always wanted to capture the logs

symptoms

1. Phone was in a regular use.

2. browsed 2/3 google sites

3. opened clock/alarm application and settings 3 to 4 times as I was not able to find the way to change alarm tone in this rom. (does anyone know?)

4. wanted to ask how alarm tone change in this forum using xda app

5. was going through posts scrolling the xda app screen

6. got the oxygen boot screen suddenly

7. booted my pc to post this and observed the logs, (plenty of them)

8. at some point of time my phone started showing the unlock screen and went back to oxygen boot logo (means a boot loop)

9. below quoted logs are from the time the phone showed unlock screen and till i get repeated logs.

My phone is still in boot loop state. let me know if you need further info.

I could not wait too long in the boot loop as my phone started heating up extremely, below the battery. I pulled the battery and re-booted.

When I captured the log again to compare, but not of much difference except two line below (top line same, bottom line extra in the proper re-boot)
[Desire Android Development] rascarlo:
I guess something is wrong:-) I never posted about the modded camera app. Only my custom wallpapers! Then all the credits should go to the right brain...

Weird, In my case, I never got a reboot on this rom...finally it's not weird :cool:
[Desire Android Development] Thorm:
Thank you so much for this ROM. For me, 98% of everything (if not more) runs great 'out of the box'. No reboots/bootloops.

I have one error though. Every time I manually reboot, my widgets have errors and need to be refreshed. Also, the phone "forgets" my default home/Launcher (I use Launcher Pro), and I need to use Home Switcher manually to get back.. each time.

Anyone else have this?

A bit of a hassle, but no biggie.
[Desire Android Development] bbbbqq:
semi weird problem for me. I'm usually using wifi, but sometimes I need to use 3g. for some reason though, even when i turn off wifi, 3g won't turn on. I have to restart to get it to work.

Make sure that you haven't moved your widgets and launcher to the sdcard. Ext partition is OK but not fat (via the "move to sdcard" button)

[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
It's a known issue. But you don't have to restart your phone. You can do one of the following:

- Switch to airplane mode and turn it off again.

- change network mode after you turned off wifi (2G to 3G for example)

Thanks a million to Lucid theme reviewed by Ninjazin here, works like a charm without kind of bug !!!!

Only thing it surprised me :: Device doesnt turn on with Power button :confused:

You need to press Home button to power on the phone

Power button only turn off the device

Thanks guys :)))))))
[Desire Android Development] xmsxms:
Even with the Oxygen updater set to *not* notify of new updates and never check etc, it still seems to run and use data. Is it possible to kill this app off completely? Why is it connecting and transferring data in the background when this is meant to be turned off? What is it transferring? It seems like a pretty dubious application given that it still runs and connects and there is no way to turn it off.
[Desire Android Development] [deXter]:
"Freeze" it from Titanium Backup.
[Desire Android Development] xmsxms:
This really shouldn't be necessary. Is this a known problem? I'd like to remove the app completely rather than "freeze" it. I have no idea what a "freeze" does and how it is implemented, so do not know if that's something I want to do.

edit: I managed to uninstall it vai titanium backup.
[Desire Android Development] [deXter]:
Freezing is a safer option as it simply prevents the app from running; intact it has the same effect as uninstalling the app except that freezing is a safer option as you can simply revert it if you change your mind.

It's removed in the next version btw. Replaced with a better implementation.

Nope. Not one. But then, my phone is rebooted automatically at 3am every morning after titanium backs everything up.
[Desire Android Development] hib1000:

[Desire Android Development] xziaz:
Dumb of you to not answer =) Or wait.. sorry for being a n00b, but everybody has been there before. God..
[Desire Android Development] SimonVT:
Alright then, I'll answer.

From the first post:

"Reasons for waiting for the OTA? Well I would rather not hack up the framework just to get video recording working, if we pull the libraries properly and the way it is supposed to be done then no hacks are needed to support video recording, I know this won't be to everybodies liking and I appologise for that but I want to try and keep Oxygen as clean as possible. The OTA proprietary files would also fix a couple of other issues."

From the issue tracker:

http://code.google.com/p/oxygen-rom/issues/detail?id=339

also mentions video recording.

From the FAQ, which is linked in second post:

"Video recording FC's - Cannot be fixed until the Nexus 1 update comes out!."

And finally, searching for "video recording" gives a lot of hints as well.
