Battery Dies at 30-40%

Hey guys, i have an issue, not sure if it's this build but it occurs when i am in android.

I have 2 batteries and both die at the same point (30-40%)

I searched and found out i can:

>turn off the phone

>fully charge it

> let it drain

> Boot both OS check if % is the same...

This is not my issue, my batt still dies at 30-40%

Weird thing is that today, it died... then i plugged it in... booted up > unplugged the phone and i got it down to around 28%...

Not sure what it is, i've read about replacing a kernel but i can't find the kernel on the forum... If anyone can point me in the right direction i'd appreciate it!

**Battery drainage is not my issue it's the accuracy of battery meters

** I've tried multiple battery meter apps with the stock included...

Thanks in advance!

Help?

[I tried searching but the search function is not working]

I've got some problems:

USB Tether doesn't work. It doesn't register on my laptop running Vista, and there's no sign of a network connection.

Wifi Tether has "Error" under it and I'm unable to turn it on. I do know that it used to work perfectly, but it doesn't anymore.

Vista always asks me for ADB drivers whenever I connect via USB.

I get the Robot Voice once and a while and have to reboot.

I'm using 176-247mA and I don't know how to lower it. I'm not using GPS, only data. "Use wireless networks" is not checked. Screen is set to dimmest level.

Every time I swype the green unlock bar, the screen rotates clockwise 90 degrees to landscape.

Any suggestions?

Incomming call no sound (occasionally)

Hi Guys,

I'm using this build now since half december, it is super, never had any problems.

Since a few days it occasionally occurs when I receive a call my hardware buttons are starting to blink.

I can answer the call but I do not hear anything (the other side does also not hear me). Then I hang up, turn off the screen and then I can call the person back and everthing is normal!

Any ideas / suggestions??
[HD2 Android SD Development] jcsy:
im actually using the same card

hmm i can remove batt and power off without issues but I do remember it corrupting previously due to this

so dont do it?

and never let battery drain completely

Kernal

Guys can someone please post a list of working Kernals

which work with SuperRam 1.5

, ?

I'm currently using 8.5.3 (Hastarins)

[HD2 Android SD Development] benadler:
No Problem, with this Release 1.5

It's very fast an stable since Januar 2011

Don't change anything.

Very good.
[HD2 Android SD Development] corradolvr:
Can someone help me figure out how to apply the patch and also how to go about deleting and placing a new data.img?
[HD2 Android SD Development] yeatsluo:
I second this question.

SuperRAM 1.5 is the best choice to rely on, and hope there's some news about the maintenance support.
[HD2 Android SD Development] fflakes:
My build basically just died after weeks without major problems. :mad:

I keep getting

"The process android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly"

and also for keyboard and all programs when booting up.

Nobody seems to have any solution for this? I installed the patch on initial install too.

It's too bad, cuz this seems like the most stable builds out there. Anyone found a stable SD rom? Otherwise I may have to switch over to NAND if this is gonna happen again in the future.
[HD2 Android SD Development] zarathustrax:
Personally, I find JDMS and HD2One to be very stable and fast SD builds. JDMS is an AOSP Ultimate Droid build, and HD2One is a CM6.1 build. I get great battery life on both (3-6ma on standby, sometimes as low as 2ma).

Darkstones Superram is a great build and super fast, but I've always found it seems to mess up after a while and requires a lot of maintenance to keep it running good. JDMS and HD2One run about as fast as Superram, and seem more stable. They take a little longer to boot up since they aren't RAM builds (HD2One can be used as a RAM build though, but I never tried it like that), but it's usually not a big deal having a longer boot time... how often do you actually reboot your phone?
[HD2 Android SD Development] g0t0:
Im using stock HD2 with my Super Ram 1.5 and I haven't had any issues. Ive used this build since it came out. I also added a 1gb data.img instead of the 256mb and everything works AWESOME!:D:D

As far as I'm concerned, the only time I would leave this build is if DarkStone made another one. Tried about 6 different builds and they all pale to this one in overall usage.
[HD2 Android SD Development] g0t0:
2nd that!!:D
[HD2 Android SD Development] fflakes:
I actually reboot quite alot since I use two batteries and I swap them after I use them, so one of the reason this was attractive to me is because of the boot-time. I used Shubcraft CM6 before and that was decent, but I supposed I can check out HD2One and see.
[HD2 Android SD Development] benadler:
Yes, everyone must look that the system runs.

But I can only say that Darkstones Build is the only that runs stable (in Moment)

For my HD2 it is the best and fastest Android Build what we have.

It runs for 60 Days, like 1-Day.

Sorry for my English.

Download Advanced Config, think it's on v3 - should be able to find it on here somewhere.

The option you need is something like "Disable security verification for unsigned apps."
[HD2 Android SD Development] DGhost:
first off...omg AMAZING BUILD!!! the only problem i'm having is that it keeps saying my SD is unmounted. even when i try to manually mount it through settings, it won't do it. any help?
[HD2 Android SD Development] dkl_uk:
Format it in Windows, 64k blocks if you're going to hit it with a lot of I/O.

If it's readable in Windows don't forget to backup any data on it.

File system should be FAT32.

If this doesn't work then respond with the make and class of your card. It might not be compatible with this ROM.

Looking forward to your update sir. Please post your observations. esp battery drain at idle and average mA during heavy usage. And how do you change kernels?

Results of testing

Hi guys

loaded v1.5 on HD2 with new radio 2.15.50.14 but with old stock ROM 1.72.901.1.

The good points:

1. load up is really fast even first time (compared to other's builds it is a dream)

2. no robot voice

3. it works (what I tried)

The bad parts:

1. Keyboard has emoticon on "enter" button so cannot go to next line (or at least I haven't figure it out how) and don't need emoticons anyway

2. Cannot sync with HTC sync (which works on other's builds)

3. Mostly missing HTC Calendar

4. It is impossible to transfer contacts by SIM (too many and I would lose details) so if HTC sync doesn't work I am stuck.

If some of the problems have been answered on the thread I apologize but I got sore eyes from reading too much and I lost patience for too much searching.

Bye

[HD2 Android SD Development] DGhost:
still didn't work. It would suck if I have to find another one. The SD is Samsung HC, class 2 (16GB).

Radio: 2.15.50.14

[HD2 Android SD Development] dkl_uk:
Does Windows read the card? If so there's no reason your phone shouldn't either. I can only recommend sticking a brand new Android folder on the card with a brand new data.img and see if the first boot fixes things, if it doesn't then just return to your old Android folder and wait for someone else to come up with a possible fix.
[HD2 Android SD Development] DGhost:
It works perfectly fine in Windows. i'll try a new folder. maybe i did something wrong on the first boot. i was hoping i wouldn't have to find a new one. i just came off of mattc leo 1.8 (not updated since Spetember) so Darkstone was a godsend. I'll try out your advice when i get a chance.
[HD2 Android SD Development] dkl_uk:
I've only ever experienced this with NAND ROMs where i'm utilising the ext4 partition on my card, so taking it out would mess the whole thing up (from experience, don't do it...).

I'd go with the unmodified Android folder and see what happens. I never had this problem and since your card is readable your phone shouldn't have a problem either. If you've formatted it correctly (FAT32 with either 32 or 64k blocks) then you're fine.

A long shot, but have you included your own APK's in the /data folder? If so, are any of them system utilities? Just FYI in case you don't have a clue what i'm talking about, that's the folder where the applications to install on first boot are held. It's also the one you're supposed to get rid of before your next boot.
[HD2 Android SD Development] DGhost:
that has to be what i did wrong. I think i just started using the phone, and then realized it said remove the folder and reboot later. I'll keep you posted. Thanks in advance for the help!

Kernal Updates

I am aware of that, this is the best SD Build in my opinion too, but There are several Kernal Updates released in various Build for NAND.

I'd be interested to know a list of more Upto Date Kernals which work with this build other than the one Supplied by DS ... especially since various patches have been applied to the new kernals since December ... which this kernal does not have,

for example, the 60 mha drain issue is completely resolved, also the LED notification issue is also fixed, so need for LED me Know ...

regards.
[HD2 Android SD Development] mosio:
I second that. Sometimes I get 60mAh drain issue.

I`m also using SD MCCM HD v 4.0 build based on gauner1986`s kernel and I get battery consumption around 2-4 mAh without 60mAh.

Maybe someone could point me to download for gauner1986`s kernel ? Will it work ?
[HD2 Android SD Development] jcsy:
has anybody tried Hastarin 8.6 for this build?
[HD2 Android SD Development] kain144000:
I'm definitely interested, aswell. @ DarkStone1337 Any suggestions? Or, do u plan to update SuperRam FroYo, or even possibly release a SuperRam Gingerbread? Also, perhaps with an included MAGLDR supported initrd.gz 'Cause, YOUR SD ROM's r by far the best imo, too.

The Camera does not work with 8.6 Hastarins kernal with New Camera Libs/Drivers ...

if I am not mistaken, only Kernals with Oldcam work on this Rom ...

[HD2 Android SD Development] EngineerMind:
I also agree this is the best build for people who will switch often between Winmo and Android. It was a toss up between this SuperRAM 1.5 Froyo and DS's SuperRAM SENSE 0.1 - but since I will be switching back and forth (which is the reason to have andriod on the SD card in the first place right? ;)), then I need android to boot up quick so its not a chore to boot into it. And the boot up speed of this Foryo 1.5 blows away the superam sense .1 version and it just runs so much smoother - and saves power as a bonus because the cpu get operations done like 4 times faster in the 1.5 version then in the .1 sense version. So using this 1.5 version is such a pleasure because it boots up in 30 seconds and has no lags or stutters like the sense often does when using it.

I did however like the "HTC Sense Live wallpaper", and the circular battery meter in the top bar, and some of the built-in apps like the Sense dialer which were better looking and had more functionality then in this stock Froyo version.

But, after a lot of research, I was able to install the HTC sense live wallpaper AND the circular bettery meter from the sense build into this froyo build, and I found apps in the marketplace that sort of "upgrade" the built in apps of Froyo to be more functional (Like Dialer1).

So, now I have the best of both worlds - speed and features.

Do not boot...

Hi.

I think this is a noob question.

It is my first time doing anything related to loading a new room into my HD2, although it was bought in Panamá, it is the Asian version. I tried all sorts of Android roms, but they all got stuck in the loading information (the black screen with white texts).

Do I need to load any other type of room before, I mean, use not the original wm6.5 room, but some other one?

I used HSPL 3 to 'hack' it. No problem with that install.

Am I missing something?

Thank you for the help!
[HD2 Android SD Development] dkl_uk:
I would recommend using Task29 and starting the whole process again. Also a battery pull can sometimes be useful, just leave it out of the phone for a minute and try again.

Search for Task29. You will need to reinstall MAGLDR and preferably Clockwork Recovery.
[HD2 Android SD Development] zenbrain:
Thanks for the information!

I'll do some search on this after some other tries.

Reading the forum I found here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=881958 that you can't have x.xx.51.xx radio when trying to flash Android. Well, mine is Leo_RADIO_2.07.51.22_2

[HD2 Android SD Development] dkl_uk:
Ah, yes, i'd assumed you'd done the radio bit.

I have radio 2.15.50.xx and it's brilliant.

Since you're wiping your phone anyway, why don't you download the latest WM ROM from the HTC site, it comes included in that. Are you using a TMOUS model, I don't actually know if what I just wrote is correct for you guys in the US.

Also your radio is WAY below recommended, you need at least 2.10 I believe. That's why you can't boot.

Cant see certain text and button images with black framework

Hey Brainmaster,

Love the new black 3d status bar look - I even swapped out the 0-100% battery images with a multi-color circle version from elsewhere on this website.

I have noticed one problem though - Text and some graphic lines in various apps are being displayed in white, but the background of where they are is also white, so it washes out.

For example, when you play a video using the built-in froyo player, it displays three graphic buttons on the bottom of the screen: Reverse (left button), Pause (midde button), and Forward (right button). The buttons are on the "white side", but the color of the graphic lines that make up the arrows ( for << and >>) and the two stroke lines (") for pause are also white in color, making them hard to see against the white color of the button background. Without your frame work, the color of these graphic lines are dark/black, so they are a good contrast to the white buttons and can be easily seen.

Another example is the "Clear" button on the "Notification" screen (the screen that drops down from the status bar) - when one or more notifications are listed in the notification list, there is a "Clear" button displayed in the top right hand corner of the screen (used to clear the list of notifications). But since the text of the word "Clear" is set to white in your framework, you can make out the word "clear" because the color of the button is also white. Again, going back to the default frame work changes the text color to black on this button, so its easy to see the word "clear".

See below screen shot - look at the button in the top righthand corner - cant easily see the word "Clear" in it with your framework:(

I am guessing that there is a theme value somewhere in your framework for the color to display "Button Text foreground" or "Button Hilight Color" and this is set to a light/white value.

Any chance you could set the value of this setting back to black like it is in the original framework?
[HD2 Android SD Development] jcsy:
I would say the default kernel that comes with SUPERAM1.5 is probably better at battery life at my observations but had 1 issue, which was that it drops DATA on HSDPA completely many times and the only way 2 fix it was to set airplane mode and retry :D

I didnt light this

Swapping to Hastarin 8.5.3 old cam( read that 8.6 doesnt work) made HSDPA consistent

the difference?

14 hours vs 8 hours (totally running on EDGE) and doing what I do normally, consistently

i am having the same issues at the moment and I would swap back to old default framework..

however the clear button has been slightly annoying and im ok with it as long as it doesnt **** me up

Finally got it to dual boot with WP7. This is really fast! Tried MIUI & MDJ Froyo and this blazes in comparison. With the fast WP7 it's really hard to beat. I'm interested in knowing how the stability is after weeks of usage. Does it hold up?
[HD2 Android SD Development] brainmaster:
Sorry, not using the SD Builds anymore. I've jumped on the CM7 NAND Build by Charnsingh.

In order to get that working I need the framework-res.apk from SuperRAM Sense build. If someone can get me that file, I can look into it.

I already asked for that in the SuperRAM Sense Thread, but no one want to help.

If you can install the SuperRAM Sense and pull that file out for me and upload it here, I can probably fix this.
[HD2 Android SD Development] EngineerMind:
Since your "Default Framework.zip" file (of the three files your posted) will fix this issue (to bring back the black text and image lines), do you still need the framework-res.apk from the SuperRAM sense build? Can't you just compare the files in your "black 3D framework.zip" to your "default framework.zip" and see which XML entry is effecting the white/black text and image lines?
[HD2 Android SD Development] T-Pad:
Thank You for the post. I've tried that method but the touchscreen & mobile network just won't work. That's why I want to know if there is anything I should do to make this build works with magldr SD loader. Thank You. :confused:
[HD2 Android SD Development] brainmaster:
No, because the xml files from the Default Framework don't contain the color values, they just use the default values. All of the color values need to be added manually from the scratch, or to take over the ones from the SenseRAM Build since the SenseRAM Build is ported from the Desire as my Framework is.

any tips on how I can get this done?

as the NAN Bible thread shows the Kernel is made for the NAND rom ...

I extracted the contents of the Update from this thread, and copied the files to the relevant folder and booted into SuperRam 1.5. But the LED Notification just stays on when ever I recieve a Message, missed call, instead of flashing like it did with LED me Know ...

What are the benefits of switching to this kernel? I already get approx. 6 mA battery in standby. Does it improve standby bluetooth? right now, that's my biggest drain. It's usually hovering around 60 mA during standby with bluetooth enabled.

What I'd really like to see is Darkstone drop by and share an update to the whole ROM. This is by far the best around, he did a great job with it from the start!
