I use obsidian 4.2 with a stock kernel and I loose about 1-2% per hour overnight. you might want to flash a newer rom or ODIN to stock and then reflash the rom you have. Hope this helps.

EDIT: also have you reconditioned your battery yet?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iynfynity:
that also happens to me when using fusion roms. yeah it's a really good rom but it sucks the battery life when in sleep mode. try uaing other roms.

Yesterday, I found SuperPower (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=807989) app which auto optimizes the phone to save battery.

It is really help, the battery just lost ~ 15% last night.

Not bad, so I will stick to Fusion 1.2 & SuperPower some days.

Thank you.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SteveCheeseman:
I have a rooted i896 running Cognition v2.3b6. Now by default, when I used the sms app, the time listed for text messages that i receive are 5 hours in the past (at 945pm i received an sms, but the time listed under the text was 445). Because when I my text messages that are sent with the proper time, so in the text message thread my text messages are always first and my recipients texts appear always before in the thread.

I what I didnt was I changed my time zone to account for the 5 hour gap.

So after I did this, most of the text message appear in order except for messages that are sent/received in the same minute. For texts send during the same minute, my sent always appear after even if it is sent before.

I read on these forums that this is a problem with time stamping of the text from the carrier or something, but there was not explanation on how to fix this.

Is anyone else having this problem and found out a way to fix it?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tietherope:
You can download an app called "Sms Time Fix" and put it to adjust by 5 hours. You can also download "Handcent" or another 3rd party messaging app and the time will be correct.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JGGW:
I had a very similar problem. After i got my phone unbricked and loaded the latest version of cognition onto the phone the timestanps were five hours off. I am now using handcent and have no probles whatsoever with the timestamps.

Don't forget to go into tibu and "freeze" your original sms program that came stock with the phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] geesamsungs:
Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask, or if it's been asked before [if it has I haven't found it!], but I was wondering if there was a way I could add either more columns or more rows to my applications screen? Is there an app that can do this for me?

Thanks in advance.

-Gee
[Galaxy S I9000 General] PAGOT:
Try http://www.appbrain.com/app/launcherpro/com.fede.launcher
[Galaxy S I9000 General] geesamsungs:
I installed it and the program doesn't actually come up in my Applications, am I doing something wrong? I got it from the Market.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] PAGOT:
Install home switcher too then. Run that program and then choose to run launcherpro. Its a different home. Meaning you will have to configure everything on your home screen from new on. But just try it :). Your old home will be still there and with the home switcher you can choose wha tyou want to run. Oh and to configure it press in the home menu button and then preferences and play with it a little.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sdjensen:
Launcherpro will not appear in the applications list. Use the Home button and hold it until you get a pop-up menu where you can select between sence and lanucherpro.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] geesamsungs:
Thanks for the swift reply - before I actually read them I was fiddling about and figured out what I need to have done, thank you both. However I was looking for something with a more stock look per-se, with the option to actually being able to add more columns and rows into the Application Drawer, not the live Home screen.

Not sure if I'm making any sense? Sorry, I'm fairly new at all this!

-Gee.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] PAGOT:
Yes you can have 5 columns in the app drawer with this , and what stock look are you referring to?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] geesamsungs:
The terminology I'm using might be wrong so I'm sorry about this.

What I'm trying to achieve is to have more icons down on the dock [in that applications view and the live home screen], and to add another column so there's not 4 but 5...

Thanks for the fast reply!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] PAGOT:
Hehe that I understood and you can do it with launcher pro :) 5 columns in app drawer and it can have even an 3D effect .

I mean the stock look , you mean the touchwiz look or vanilla look? :)

Is there any possibility to organize apps into folders in the menu and not only on the homescrees? Having 300+ apps can really be a pain in the ass when searching for a particular one, not to mention it would be great to have apps organized by type, e.g., games, system, social.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] PAGOT:
Dunno what adw launcher does , but there are apps on the market who can help you with organizing. I never did cuz it never made any sense to me. Too much work and I wont use it anyway. Boss was very proud of his organization of the apps and it took him always longer to find the app he needed in the folders....

can someone tell me how to remove the HTC car panel?? I just find it very annoying because it disrupt my GPS application (i.e. Copilot and Syqic). Every few minutes while running the GPS, the car panel screen will pop up and replaced my navigation screen. This is stupid! Think there is a bug in there. I try to find it in /system/app (try to delete it manually) but just cant find the file. Do anyone know where it is hidden??

I recently has a phone stolen, it was a xperia x10, i had lookout mobile security as well as wavesecure, both programs were unable to track my phone. Not to mention Rogers didnt want to help with anything, they just wanted me to buy a phone.

I came here to see if the "pros" know if what i want is possible or not.

What im looking to do is..

1) have a special shut down sequence to shut down the phone.

2)disable the power button to shut down the phone, but to put it in a hibernation mode, or just some mode that if it falls into the wrong hands and they power it down, they think its actually off.

3)be able to turn features on or off via txt msg or some other means.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tnt533:
Even though you own a captivate this is not the right place to post this question. What you are looking for is a piece of software specific to the platform, not the phone.

I would Google. Maybe try googling for "Android phone remote disable theft". I saw quite a few hits that may be of use to you when I did that search.

Keep in mind most products will simple allow you to disable or remotely wipe the phone in case of theft but don't go much further than that.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] volsey:
I've had this problem a couple times now, and specifically three or four times in the past six hours.

With the stock Messenger App, auto delete set to occur after threads have reached 200, again this is all the stock settings. I'll get the standard notification sound that a new message has been received. But instead I get a notification that says something along the lines of:

'Incoming message blocked, message limit reached'.

After this occurred the first time tonight I deleted all my longer threads (all of which were still under 200 messages). This is what I did the first time months ago when it first occurred, and haven't had issues since. Anyway the problem persisted this time, and I ended up having to delete all my messages and threads, not to mention I didn't receive upwards of 4 messages tonight, which really could end up screwing things up for me.

It appears that either there's an overall limit for maximum messages regardless of thread length, which is being reached, or maybe a maximum amount of threads. Either way it sucks.

I would have thought this to be a pretty common problem, but wasn't able to find anything.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Look at your free space in /data partition (free space for apps). Did you notice "low on space" notification? You probably had less than 20MB left, and under this condition incoming SMS are blocked.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gatorbait:
I just purchased Launcher Pro and am having a lot of fun customizing my phone. I thought I would never want to give up stock Sense, but I am really liking a lot of the versatility and widgets that Launcher Pro offers now.

Anyway, I have a couple of transparent apks of the Google News and Weather genie widget. I tried to installing them with a ES File Manager (the app was signed), but I was unable to. I'm guessing this is because the Genie App is considered a system app now?

What are my options and what do I need to do? Do I need to root to remove the stock genie widget first? If so, how would I do that? I'd prefer to not have a different rom if possible, and would just like to get rid of the current genie app and install the transparent one.

Thanks for the help, guys. This transparent widget is literally the last piece to my new and improved homescreen. :D

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gatorbait:
I did read through that entire thread (assuming we are talking about the same one) before I posted, but I was hoping for a slightly more detailed breakdown on the best way to do this since I am pretty lost when it comes to rooting/adb pushing and all that.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gatorbait:
Well, I just learned I won't be able to do this for the time being anyway since I have the newest OTA and it apparently doesn't play nice with unRevoked.

Anyway, here is what I was going to do:

1. Root with unRevoked.

2. Move/Remove stock Genie Widget app with adb commands.

3. Run signed transparent Genie Widget apk with file explorer app.

Does this sound like it will work?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpwardSpiral:
You will definitely need root to do this.

1)The first step is to root your phone

2)Make sure the GenieWidget apk you are using is NOT SIGNED. System apps aren't signed.

3)You don't need to remove the old one, the new GenieWidget.apk will overwrite it when you adb push it. The commands you should use are:

adb remount (this remounts system as writable)

adb push GenieWidget.apk /system/app

4)reboot your phone

I just did this exact thing earlier today (i.e. install clear GenieWidget, I've been rooted for awhile). Let me know if you run into any issues.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] birdfoot:
Don't mind me hijacking the thread for a quick question. :P

I'm using HTC Desire (unrooted) and I had Genie.apk installed quite some time ago. Thing is, I just found out recently that after installation, it's become a system app which is refusing to uninstall.

So my question is: if I wanted to get a transparent/semi-transparent version via installation of a modded Genie.apk, is rooting the only way to achieve it?

Thanks!
[Touch HD General] tsalta:
Hello i decide to post here because i dont know right now do is a ROM related problem or no and on the same time here will see it more peoples and hope someon to know what is this.

Yesterday something strange heppand with my Blackstone, without to do anything i just decide to see the time and when i turn on the device was totaly Freeze not reacting on any touch, im using the ROM from my signature from Mounth without any problem. So i was thinking that maybe its from the ROM what i did is Soft Reset few times But this does not help.. the device fully load But the screen is not responsive also the hardware buttons do not vibrate?!!? when i press them they do not react ot anything.

After i saw that the SR not helping i do a Hard Reset and when the device whole load the ROM and preparing for 1st time use i was not able to Calibrate the screen.. the strange thing is that the display react on touch because when im taping in the corners the crozz move and when i do all the steps just start from the begining all the time and i cannot pass this step.

After i saw that this do not help me alot i decide to Flash so i put Manualy the device in Bootloader mode and via PC methoud i flash a Brand new ROM, when the ROM fully load and im going again to the Align Screen i have again the same problem the procedure start over and over and i cannot do anything.

1st i was thinking that something heppand with my Display but i didn`t do anything with the device i mean drop it or damage it somehow.. this heppand like the device is at the table at home and few minutes Befor i speak on that Phone. On the same time Im sure the display react on touch even wrong... because when im pressing the X on the calibration screen is move and befor to do Hard Reset when i was with the ROM from my signature.. and restart few times.. when the phone Load a POP UP of notification appear and the strange things was that i was able to scroll it up and down with fingers so for this reason i was thinking is a Problem ROM and need to HR or FLasdh diferent ROM. The notification Pop Up that appear when you click the Taskbar somewhere you know that you cannot slide it because its static.. so how this heppand i dont know.

PLEASE IF YOU HAVE ANY IDEA what i need to do let me know this heppand for 1st time and i never hear for soooo weird Blackstone.

THank you in advance

P.S Today im 22 November im going to Repair Service here because my device still have One Mounth Warranty left so maybe im lucky or no will see that leter.. i post this because to let you know that its not necassery to drop or damage your device the Display (Digitizer) to Stop working.. in my sutuation the device was static on the table i never drop it and use it 20 minutes befor the display to die i make a call so im using this device from 23 Mounths and i think that just the Display Die itself.. and to be more corect the display still work and show everything but the digitizer DIE so have that on mind :)
[Touch HD General] tsalta:
I do now Task29 and re flash again the same problem its like the display reacting on touch but not corect... i think its something serious and i will need new Digitazer or Display or Both?!

Also Reverting Back to stock SPL and ROM do not help..

I think im for Repair Service

Thank you
[Touch HD General] farukb:
i still don't understand how the f*** does this fin into ROM development

but anyway it also happened to me,first the digitizer went a bit crazy,then it went completely crazy and than i replaced it with a new one

i did it by myself...it can easily be done if you have any hand skills and can hold a screwdriver

but be really careful with placing the new digitizer over the screen because any irregularity may cause dust to later get in between the two

digitizer is less than 20usd i believe...

lcd+digitizer are 60+ if i remember correctly

if you decide yourself for lcd+digitizer first check if those are already sealed to each other,because if not,you will have the same situation as if you ordered the digitizer only...but with 40+ usd wasted in vain

also be extra extra extra careful while removing old digitizer from the lcd

cheers
[Touch HD General] stathis95194:
If you are stack in the align screen, try first to create a summy file named "welcome.not" and put it in the root of your storage card. This will allow you to go through ROM setup without align. Then check to see if the screen is responding and if not then you most probably need to do what farukb said above.
[Touch HD General] geoponer:
In my case, the SD card was corrupted and in the next 3-4 days the touch screen is not responding either... I should note that in my case, I followed the advice by Stathis and created a "welcome.not" dummy file in the root of the phone's memory, so it skipped the screen alignment procedure. Unfortunately the screen is responding so I will have to take it to the service center in order to have it checked, in case it is still under warranty (I have bought it 2nd hand).

Otherwise, I will have to order a new screen and try to install it myself. Wish me luck!
[Touch HD General] exseed:
Same here, i have some kind of smudge, like oil spill, on the screen. i thought of buying just the digitizer but as i disassembled it, found the digitizer and the display are a set, so don't bother buying just one of the parts.

Hi.. not sure if this has been posted here previously but I have replaced the standard x10 mini music player with musicmod v1.6

Do a Google search "musicmod v1.6" the first link should be the application to download.

You need to copy the application ( apk ) into system/app ... backup or rename any existing files if they have the same name as the apk just in case this does not work for you...

You will then need to reboot your phone to see the app in your app drawer.

I have this working on x10 mini 2.1 and use the music app widget to select tracks...
