Guys, a TIP for overnight Battery drain.

I did some testing spread over a few nights: using these settings:

RADIO = 'Cingular' Radio (I found hits gives me best GPS fix and mobile signal)

SetCPU = 1075 MHz MAX - On demand with a 'screen off' profile = 422/245

TEST 1 - WIFI on - 100% down to 87% (13% loss)

TEST 2 - HSDPA on - 100% down to 82/85% (avg 16%)

TEST 3 - HSDPA on - 100% down to 6% (LOL..I put this down to a 'bad app' or something. so ignore this. I restored my backup and it fixed the issue.

TEST 4 - HSDPA on - 100% down to 76% (24% loss)

TEST 5 - GSM on (NO HSDPA) - 100% down to 96% (4% loss)

Test number 5 was the ONE! so I tried it again and the results where the same. about 0.5% battery loss per hour. I realised that because my mobile data reception is 'weak' at home that the phone keeps trying to get the 3G/H signal all through the night. But with GSM or 'G' only, the signal is constant and the phone just idles @ 0.5% per hour.

So for anyone having problems with battery drain overnight have a look at your signal and then see what works best for you.

ARHD/BUZZ already do an excellent job of conserving battery without affecting performance SO signal is most likely going to be your culprit!

I will be switching to 'G' before bed each night. :D

Sorry for the long post, but I thought some people will find it usefull.
[Desire HD Android Development] CitizenLee:
Funnily enough I use the same radio and SetCPU settings as you and also set to G before bed... and get pretty much the same results as you too! Absolutely no battery complaints here :D
[Desire HD Android Development] Tantin:
Well 3G & WiFi suck a lot of battery, that's for sure. Though I have the feeling WiFi consumed less power with 2.0.9.

Anyway, I wanted to suggest Juice Defender to save battery - not only over night.

I used it 1.5 years ago with my Milestone and it was quite buggy so I forgot about it. But: Someone in Lee's Thread is using it and so I installed it yesterday and it seems to work flawlessly.

I think it should save almost as much battery. I have no overnight numbers now, since I had WiFi enabled overnight and only the pro version switches off WiFi, but I'd say you should give it a try. Especially if 3G coverage is poor in your apartment.

[Desire HD Android Development] 5hamz:
LOL. yes...I'm one happy DHD user now!

Your experience helps to confirm this 'weak signal' battery drain issue.

Setting the network to 'G' in an area with weak signal will help conserve your Battery!

:D
[Desire HD Android Development] CitizenLee:
With the Cingular radio I actually get good signal at home but it switches between 3G and H a lot, which I don't need when I'm sleeping :D
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
I changed the sizes of the themes screens in second post + add one more theme. I hope pictures are not so big :rolleyes: Now every screens from 1st and 2nd post are very similar size and should fit even small resolution screens :)
[Desire HD Android Development] chrisjasper:
TBH unless you move around a lot in your work, its probably not really necessary to enable 3G all the time anyway.

Most of the time I connect the phone to the wifi at work or at home when I need data and I already have the UK maps cached for the Location app so I dont need to download data for that.

2G is a lot more stable as well, and T-Mobile sucks as a network anyway
[Desire HD Android Development] nikolas18:
I cant get a GPS fix. My DHD acquires some satellites and then looses them? I am on 2.0.11 and last time I used my GPS was on 2.0.9. Any ideas?
[Desire HD Android Development] futur1sm:
It's strange because the Cingular radio seems to work great with little battery drain on 3G but it hates 2G on my network (O2). I guess it might have something to do with Cingular not using the 900MHz band over in USA (think they use 850MHz or something like that) which might explain it (I think T-Mobile, Orange etc. use 1800MHz bands). I've had to put the recommended radio back on (M2_SF) as at home it drops a 2G connection all the time on the Cingular which is no use at night. Oh well, hopefully now that Ericcson have won a contract to upgrade O2's masts in the North their 3G Coverage will improve. :)
[Desire HD Android Development] vahid123456:
where can I off HSPDA?
[Desire HD Android Development] chrisjasper:
Sounds violent.

if you mean turn off HSDPA, you can only really change it down to 2G by going into Settings/Wireless and Networks/Mobile Networks and change Network Mode to GSM only.

Or there is an app on the market called Network that gives you some more options.
[Desire HD Android Development] 5hamz:
>menu

>settings

>wireless & networks

>Mobile networks

>Network Mode

options are:

'WCDMA only' for 3G/H network only (h = HSDPA)

'GSM only' for 2G network only

'GSM/WCDMA auto' = as it says...Auto. switches between them according to signal/network availability.

:D

EDIT - damn..too slow. :)
[Desire HD Android Development] cmaguss:
Hello mike1986, I would like to know when is scheduled the launch of your new version 2.0.12 and the changes will bring. I love the work you do and why not say that your rom is the best I've tested to date
[Desire HD Android Development] futur1sm:
mike has already said at some point this week it may be ready. When it's ready, it's ready - enjoy 2.0.10/11 in the meantime :D
[Desire HD Android Development] Goodold:
+1 for this - although you might be better off asking in the Kernel thread as the HTC vocpcm driver needs to be added to the kernel - and it's aparently not stable at the moment anyway - but agreed that it would be a useful addition if possible.

Cheers.
[Desire HD Android Development] quarintus:
The problem is that everyday this question is asked 3 times. If it would be asked 2 times a week, it would be no problem to me, because it isn't a bad question. But if he knows something about a release, he almost always tells.

Because people are asking it so much, now it's a necessary evil to ask of the readers to fully stop ask these questions again.

Mike did say he expected the ROM to be released somewhere this week (you could have known that). So that means at that time they were still busy.

I get the "want to know!" urge, but if you were Mike, constantly getting these questions it would be irritating. I have noticed that Mike therfore mostly ignores these questions now. So don't bother :).

He does give us updates evertime he knows a new Rom from him is comming.

He also has to wait for Apache's new kernel to go live. He has the privileges to use his kernel before Apache really releases it. I also think Apache get's too little credit for his work, because one of the things that make this rom so great are his Kernels.
[Desire HD Android Development] satfly:
Are you using a case/skin around your DHD? This can seriously decrease GPS-reception. Try it again naked (your phone, that is ;)).

Other tips:

- Download Fasterfix from the Market and use it to set your location close to where you actually live. This will really speedup the time for your GPS-fix. Default setting is for North America. BTW, you need Root-access to succesfully save the new settings.

- Download 'GPS Status & Toolbox' from the Market. Go into the Tools-sections and download the AGPS-data (Assisted GPS). This will really speedup the time for your GPS-fix and will last for a few days.
[Desire HD Android Development] lampz:
at last i was able to flash your ROM! :D

thank you MIKE

your ROM is good! :D

i hope it would be better if you can add

some tweaks on improving the battery life! and

HOW TO CHARGE and manage it..

i got lost of this i thought ill have a better batterylife :|
[Desire HD Android Development] sphuyal:
tun.ko module...

guys i m still on the vpn thing....is tun.ko file included in the kernel?
[Desire HD Android Development] nikolas18:
I am not using any case or skin. I updated the radio to the new recommended. Hope it helps. I am indoor now and I cannot check the results. I'll try what you propose and get back. Thank you for your time.
[Desire HD Android Development] Dr.FANTASTIK-US:
what 'rom' is the performance winner ? ? ?

Hy Mike !!

My is veteran_fan for Revolution Rom's ,, all releases reflect fantastik work.

But ! >yesterday installed the Core Droid 2.4 ,, pure curious ...

here is the result ::D:eek::eek::eek: 3779 in quadrant !!!

(waiting the 2.0.12 ,, please add something to kernel for make usable 2way recording, ..)...........
[Desire HD Android Development] dexta211:
Hi all,

I'm using this Rom at the moment and its great, so thanks.

I'm torn between Sense and Launcher Pro for it though... I love the look of sense, the pure calendar F/B integration and a lot of the widgets. But i much prefer the more customisable nature of LP, the App drawer and the ability to use Non sense based scrolling widgets, ie Scrollable news etc.

So i tried to create a Sense look in LP, using the slate skin. Fancy widget does a good job at the clock (until i can figure how to skin my own Sense Slate clock in beautiful widgets), but i'm having real trouble with the dock. I have a PNG image of it, and have set it up - but the gradient banding is horrid! I've added noise etc but its still too nasty looking to use!

So, (after all that!!) my question to you knowledgeable people - can i extract the actual Sense Slate Dock from the phone?

Thanks in advance, and sorry about the essay!
[Desire HD Android Development] CitizenLee:
Weird, just had my 1st ever random reboot. Can't say what caused it as I haven't used my phone in a few hours. Just went to check emails and noticed it was at the screen asking me for my SIM password when it 1st starts up.
[Desire HD Android Development] ixinho:
hello, im using launcherpro, if i install no-sense script is there anyway i keep my launcherpro installed ?
[Desire HD Android Development] Tantin:
Well that's kammas kernel. What's really counting though is real life performance rather than benchmark results. And that's where apaches or lees kernel are better in my opinion.

-edit-

especially lees 2.0.3 kernel :eek:
[Desire HD Android Development] Tantin:
dunno exactly what you mean, but: Just hit backup launcherpro in preferences and you can restore it if the no-sense script is killing it.

What's doubtful btw. ;)

ah ps: widgets aren't restored though, you have to delete and put them back on the homescreen after restoring
[Desire HD Android Development] he_stheone64:
Reminds me to countless penis enlargement spam mails :p
[Desire HD Android Development] quarintus:
I just wanted to propose that (newest Radio). That works most of the time :) I think you are going to post and tell us it works again :)

Also I one time had a problem that was fixed by enabling and disabling GPS. (restart didn't fix it). But I guess you already tried that :).
[Desire HD Android Development] Dr.FANTASTIK-US:
ooo yes ,,, hahahahaa :D,, i'm want to remark the outstanding performance improvements what is possibile after more effort to polish the Rom's !!

great work, tunning man's.
[Desire HD Android Development] Kyrillos:
guys I have the following issue,

I connect to a wifi (protected) and it stays connected for few minutes (can't say exactly for how long), later on... it doesn't work (the sign that I am connected is there however if I go to the settings of wifi it says it authenticates the connection). I have to disconnect and connect again in order to have it working.

Can this be solved somehow? Or at least can you give me a clue what the problem is?
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
This score is due only to kammas kernel which is using bfs instead of cfs. Bfs gives to high score while cfs gives you real ui performance.
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
Incoming 1.2.4 kernel has all tweaks from lee's kernel + extra stuff and it's really amazing :D
[Desire HD Android Development] kuklux:
wow amazing hope tomorrow .12 is out :p
[Desire HD Android Development] agheh:
Thanks for the tips man.... removing the skin/case really boost the GPS signal.... mine from only 5 fix sat came up to 11 fix sat... nice..... :)
[Desire HD Android Development] Tomerc:
with cfs i got 2835 in second run
[Desire HD Android Development] f9cator:

[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
I have a strange problem with my phone. Sometimes it just hangs without any warning. One time it happend when I was adjusting CPU frequency in setcpu. I thought it was just a bug in setcpu app but now it have happend several times. One time during a call, the call didn't disconnect so I could still talk but I where unable to end the call or even turn off my phone.

Is this happening because my phone (cpu) is incompatible with the tweaks kernel?
[Desire HD Android Development] Learnincurve:
Does anyone have a HTCsense account working with mikes later roms?

It's probably nothing to do with the rom, but my account stopped working from about 2.0.x

I can't log into an existing account and creating a new one seems to go ok, but the phone won't sync.

With HTC's track record, it's most likely their website that's broken, but just asking?
[Desire HD Android Development] Madridi4ever:
Can someone be kind enough to answer this please :)

I have this same power consumption issue. I have my mobile data turned off. So whenever I'm home and wifi is on and screen off, usage is 4-8mA, but when I go to work (no wireless and mobile data turned off), power consumption is around 75mA.

Restarting the phone fixes it. But obviously restarting the phone everytime I leave home is not a practical solution. So why does this happen?
[Desire HD Android Development] lilil:
I think that the problem has nothing to do with the Rom but it is a problem by HTC. Mike also recommended to delete those account because it sucks the battery.

correct me if I am wrong
[Desire HD Android Development] Saluco:
i had the same issue but the problem was with the wireles router not with the phone. at me problem was solve by resetting the router, encription type WEP and mode on B/g, not b/g/n
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
There is nothing wrong with using different kernel with my roms. I will add kernels section today :)

Bro are u sure ur rom is ext4 supported?? Because when i do partition ext4 on my memory card.. all the apps when i installed its not going into my ext4 partition... and my save location i set it to internal. Pls help thx....
[Desire HD Android Development] coolacrille:
Android 2.2 doesn't support EXT4. You don't need EXT4 until 2.3 is released...
[Desire HD Android Development] sckw:
So... does it support ext2?? Or it doesnt support any ext partition??
[Desire HD Android Development] descenpet:
this rom doesn't include a2sd script so apps you install will just go to phone memory not sd-ext partition.
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:

You can have a life and flash roms compulsively......
[Desire HD Android Development] Donny1987:
I created a few photos today but after restarting my phone I no longer see the pictures on my SD card, any idea how to get them back? :/
[Desire HD Android Development] chrisjasper:
Take the card out of the phone and check for the photos on a pc, the gallery might not be looking at the right folder?
[Desire HD Android Development] Tombias:
There are several applications for this kind of problems if you can't find them with the card in your PC....google

After you have them back defrag your SD or format it else you might have the same problems in future.
[Desire HD Android Development] CitizenLee:
Give this a try before you do anything else as you don't even need to take the cover off ;)

Menu Settings > SD & Phone Storage > Unmount SD Card

Then press Mount SD again.

Works for me when gallery wont pic up new pics.
[Desire HD Android Development] lilil:
You can also try the App SDrescan from the Market.
[Desire HD Android Development] Donny1987:
I checked the SD on my pc and the photos are just gone :(

I will backup my files and format the SD, hopefully it will not happen anymore :(
[Desire HD Android Development] chrisjasper:
Did you check the phones internal memory for the photos?

not that I'm aware of, the weird part is that I saw the photos in the gallery after I took them. After I restarted they were gone :s

Do you know where it stores the local files? I will check with Root Explorer then. Thanks

Original HTC 1.72 ROM

Hi guys -- sorry if this was asked earlier in the thread, I did a search and couldn't find anything, but still..

Anyway - HTC pulled the 1.72 ROM OTA a month ago due to bugs and issues, and haven't yet posted any new one. I sent my phone back for repair as the vibration functionality stopped working and when it was returned to me it was with 1.32. ( I don't know if the vibration issue was caused by 1.72 and I had it before).

My question is basically - if this ROM is based on the original 1.72 ROM, could it suffer from the bugs and issues that caused HTC to pull it back?

Sorry for the long post, wanted to be clear.

Thanks!
[Desire HD Android Development] Hellas4:
!!!!wow....i knew about the wifi fix but never got a problem with wifi!!so i didnt thought that DLNA is a part of it!!! Thanks for replies guys!!
[Desire HD Android Development] Patrics83:
Read the first post please. Yes it's on the 1.72 build HTC bugs included. :D
