Thanks for the reply.

About the messaging question, in the oem D2 software u can press the menu key and there is a add reciepient option which scrolls through ur contacts and u can select a bunch at one time. Right after I posted I actually went back in and saw I could just touch the reciepient box and type their names. Which is fine since the ability is still there I just should have been more specific.

And the FRM question was just a curiosity about having that feature without having to add something to the install queue.

I do have a new question however, has anyone run into the photo frame widget not working? By the way im using 2.5.7 black with gingerbread theme with transistions. I get to the point where I pick a picture however it never shows up on my home screen.,
[Droid 2 Android Development] dldunckel:
Can you give more details? What does "after recent update" mean? Does that mean you went from 2.4.3 to 2.5.6 or 2.5.6 to 2.5.7? Give us specifics so we can help. Are you using any themes? Are you certain you completely and accurately followed the instructions for installing the ROM/themes?

Secured Storage FC

Okay, so I have 2.5.7 with ThirdEye Black Theme, and I am experiencing the issue of force closing when it comes to the secured storage/install certificates process. My college campus uses EAP authentication over wifi, which has no problem installing the cert files and key to connect via stock/non-root.

Anyone experience the same issue? I would assume it's an issue with the ROM since using secured storage isn't that common amongst all users. =/

Still having issues with the ##PROGRAM hotfix... I tried downloading it from the forums (page 124?) and then install manually through bootstrap recovery... no luck.

Also, any answers for my questions about the slider/launcher design from page 124?
[Droid 2 Android Development] mingaldrichgan:
I, too, have experienced reboots while the phone is on a USB connection. This usually happens when I try to change the USB mode. I have a Droid R2-D2 running Fission 2.5.7 Black Edition with the ThirdEye theme. I don't imagine it's relevant, but I'm running Launcher Pro Plus.

Is this a documented issue with Fission 2.5.7?
[Droid 2 Android Development] mistermr:
This has been a known problem in a lot of ROMs for the Droid 2. I usually try to avoid plugging my phone into the computer unless I need to transfer a large file or SBF. I use dropbox and wireless abd for everything else.

Hey guys, been having a funny issue lately. I'm using 2.5.7 with third eye theme and every now and then, something eats up most of my memory and my phone gets really hot. It rebooted once. The past week I've manueally rebooted when I noticed my phone getting hot and the available memory low and it fixes it. Anyone else ran into this problem? Oh, and I use ES task manager to kill my apps and that doesn't work when my memory gets low.

What is the best way to kill a task from within fission?

Personally I would like to uninstall carhome -but that option is not available in app manager. I don't use any docks but it keeps loading(i'm assuming the magnets on my case start it?)

By the way, how do I get Google maps to quit restarting itself?

Sent from my DROID2
[Droid 2 Android Development] mistermr:
To kill an app, just go to Settings->Applications->Manage Applications and search for the one you want to kill, select it, and hit force stop. You can uninstall or freeze car home with Titanium Backup. Not sure about google maps. Maybe try reinstalling it?
[Droid 2 Android Development] Heafust:
I will look into Titanium backup.

I know about force stopping an app, I guess I really want to know what's the best way to keep it from ever starting, including at boot, unless I open it specifically. I've searched the market, not sure about those boot/startup auditors, was hoping for a Fission specific solution. Or other highly recommended method.

EDIT: Just tried TB. Was able to uninstall carhome. But now Titanium Backup loads at every boot- I don't need the scheduled backup, therefore I only want the app to run when I call it. Which brings me back to? ??

Sent from my DROID2
[Droid 2 Android Development] Sighte:
I'm sure you can disable the scheduled backup... I thought it wasn't even enabled by default.
[Droid 2 Android Development] Heafust:
I mean the app itself. If i don't have backups scheduled, I don't need it running in the background. And I was able to force close apps under the stock ROM

I thought this was a Fission thread. I installed Fission so I could get rid of crap, and then I'm told to install more apps that just bloat the background up again! ... I keep getting generic answers that i already know. Maybe I'll look into flashing Liberty ROM, I bet that Liberty toolbox and those devs have something that will take care of my needs. Just hate too though, Fission 2.5.7 running so smooth....besides, I'm a donating user of FRM.(HonD2)

Sorry about my temper, but does nobody read my actual question?

Or is everybody so savvy?

All I really want to know is shouldn't a custom ROM come with better than stock app management?

Otherwise I may as well go back to stock, use titanium backup to remove bloat, then uninstall tb? But I love Fission otherwise.

Sent from my DROID2
[Droid 2 Android Development] mrkite38:
Fission's goal is a very vanilla system, as close to aosp as possible, with the ability to add in certain themes/apps/features if you so desire. As such, you get aosp app management. Isn't it typically taboo for devs to cook in apps available from market? Are you saying that ang should write one just because his rom is custom? Why reinvent the wheel? This way, everyone gets to choose which tried-and-true, market available app they want.

Now, if your REAL request is "ang, could we make some things like carhome optional?", I'd call that a reasonable request.

[Droid 2 Android Development] juliend:
WTF are you talking about? You want the rom to wipe your rear for you when you take a dump or something?

Try another rom if you want. They all handle apps pretty much the same way. I don't think anyone understands what the heck you want. Perhaps you just need to spend some time learning to use your device, and not expect a dev to think of every single thing you would personally want. The rom is made to please as many people as possible with a generic setup. You still have to customize if you want something different than the rest of us. And I personally don't mind wiping my own rear. So that particular function, while perhaps important to you, means nothing to me.

[Droid 2 Android Development] UrbanBounca:
So, what are you waiting for? Go try Liberty. I tried it and came back to Fission within a day.

You're complaining about having to download an app to kill another app. Whoop-tee-do. I wish that was all I had to worry about in life.

For the record, Fission is the cleanest D2 ROM you'll find. I've tried them all. ;)
[Droid 2 Android Development] mikeeg02:
I don't think what he is asking is out of line if I understand what he is asking. I thought of it before, just never said anything. I've been pretty happy with the fission series. I think what he is asking is this. Is there a way to keep apps from running in the background, when not being used. Only when started.

Some apps seem to be opened in the background, for no apparent reason, and don't end up being used. But when you FC them, they come back within a couple seconds, or a minute. For example. 'Voice dialer' 'My uploads' 'media storage' 'drm manager' maybe I do not understand their root function, and what they actually do. But if you close them (and a few others obviously), look at available memory its up, and phone runs smoother. Turn off the screen after closing them, turn it back on, typically they are running again. Like I said, maybe they have a function I don't understand.

I don't use titanium backup, but if you freeze an app, can you still start it manually? Or do you have to unfreeze it?

Some of it I think is how the apps are written. For example: the stock browser. Only way you can close it, is to FC it. It doesn't close on exit.

Hopefully this helps explain a little better what I think he's trying to say. Maybe its also something we can't do anything about. Also, not necessarily trying to defend the dude, but I think he may be a little misunderstood.

[Droid 2 Android Development] Redneck Trash:
Apps generally don't run in the background. There are exceptions. For example, the music player playing while the music app is in the background or the browser finishing the loading of a page. The os will keep apps in memory so they can be used again without having to restart all the processes again. Not having to constantly restart processes lowers cpu usage which improves battery life. It's also why task killers shouldn't be used because they do a brutal kill that terminates the processes. Keeping apps in memory also allows you to return to the app in the state you left it in. Meaning you return to the point in the app you left it. The Android os is designed to run with RAM memory nearly full. If the os needs to free up memory it'll shut down whatever app had been in memory unused the longest. If you feel the need to free memory, which is unnecessary, use the force kill in app management. That's how it was designed.

Overclocking Help

Hey guys, just wondering about overclocking. From what I have read overclocking it will increase my phone speed and increase battery life. Is that correct? Are there any other advantages or disadvantages to overclocking?

There are a couple different options in FRM, any suggestions on choosing one or figuring out which one would be best for me? Thanks for any info you can provide me.
[Droid 2 Android Development] Spitemare:
Overclocking generally decreases battery life. By making the processor run faster you're also making it require more battery power. You can overclock and undervolt (reducing the amount of battery power provided to the processor) but you'll most likely see more problems. Generally it's a good idea to increase the voltage when you increase the clock cycles.

You can underclock your processor as well. By running slower your processor will require less battery power letting you undervolt with more success. It should be obvious that underclocking does come at the cost of performance; the phone will probably be less snappy overall depending on what you set it to.

The overclocking options in FRM give you some pretty safe settings. Each step in processor speeds also increases the voltage so bad things are less likely to happen. Note, however, you can't underclock or undervolt with these settings. If you use the overclock.sh script from the terminal you can fine tune your overclock settings. That's what I use to undervolt my phone.

It's tough to give a concrete what you should run, though. Each processor is different so one might be able to tolerate 1300 Mhz at 62v with no issues while another might be unable to remain stable at all at 1300 Mhz no matter what the voltage. Personally, my phone doesn't handle overclocking too well. I'm not a big fan of underclocking either since it made things too sluggish for my liking. My phone does, however, handle the stock speed of 1000 Mhz with a very low voltage just fine. Just try different combinations until you find something you can live with.
[Droid 2 Android Development] neversummer515:
Thanks for the info. So if I start using the overclocking options in FRM and decide that my phone was better off with the stock speed and voltage, how do I revert back to stock? Also, what are the stock settings?
[Droid 2 Android Development] CT53:
I love TeamDefuse and all that y'all do. Keep up the good work guys.
[Droid 2 Android Development] Quacker:
Stock settings should be 1000Mhz@56v, but I don't think there's an option for stock settings in FRM. I personally change overclock settings to and from stock with the JRummy app on the Market. It costs a buck, but it's really a fantastic, easy-to-use app with lots of extra features.
[Droid 2 Android Development] bladearronwey:
I second this, the jrummy d2 overclock app is a must have for overclocking. I've had a lot of success underclocking/undervolting, my current setup is

225MHz, 20V

425MHz, 27V

625MHz, 35V

825MHz, 44V

When I'm in good service area's, 12 hours off the charger with light to moderate usage only eats up about 30% of my battery (calls, data, text, etc)

Ive had the random reboot issue if i'm running OC over 1.2 ghz. Both via scripts and jrummy's oc app. If i'm on 1.2 ondemand runs beautifully. if i switch to performance or any higher clock setting, it will run awesome for 10 minutes at most then reboot.

The only other time i've had reboot/bootloop, issue is when i install something that I shouldn't and cause a problem.

I've run most of the roms out for the d2 and this has been by far the most stable and consistent. Liberty lasted for 2 days before the problems overtook the functionality of the rom. Lots of reboots, wifi connection issues, 3g connection issues to name a few. SBF'd and tried again with liberty and not much better.

Fission's only real consistent issues that i've experienced are some instability with mixzing and occasionally LWP's will start eating memory like candy.

UD for my OG droid will definately compete with fission, however that is comaring apples to oranges. Once UD is released with a stable version, I will definitely try it, however I am very happy with fission.

The biggest thing I see is that alot of users who do have complaints do not tend to wipe when they install a new version etc.
