I purchased the official Seidio 3500 mah batteries for my evo and the wifes evo. After a full charge, her battery under normal usage all day and night is at 57%. My phone after a full charge and barely any use whatsoever was at 13% after an hour..... We are both running Azrael x3.0 rom with the newest htc kernel #15... any suggestions?? Maybe my new battery is faulty?? I would expect this from ****ty ebay batteries, but not something official!! Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vandelay007:
Try eliminating a variable by swapping batteries with your wife....then use your old one again.....if both work well then you have your answer......

Swap batteries ... if hers only lasts a short time in your phone then issue is with the phone. Then you can start troubleshooting.

Edit: Ha I was a few second to slow!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] extreme27:
Ok I will give that a try.... I noticed in the battery left widget when I go to usage, the very first one says "running" 84%, and I click on it, basically it is stating that the phone isn't sleeping when I lock the phone..... could this mean that the everything is staying on when it should be sleeping?

Thank you for tips!!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vandelay007:
Haha ....but at least we agree on the best way to test this!

EDIT: I guess that was too obvious! We must have all hit return at the same time!!!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vandelay007:
Yeah....its possible....but if so, you would most likely have noticed this issue with your standard battery as well....

Ok after being on the charger for all night, I unplugged it, and really haven't done anything and I dropped to 90 % within 8 minutes.... I haven't had a chance to try my wifes battery yet, but im thinking this one is definitely faulty...

Why would android system be at 63%???
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vandelay007:
Dropping the first 10% quickly is not a certain indication that its the battery....your battery charges to 100% and then, begins to be used up to 10% before it charges again.....so you could have been lower than you thought you were originally ...thus making it appear that you dropped 10% in minutes.....if the remainder of the battery does this then I still recommend you try swapping with your wife to eliminate or confirm

Ok well I just wanted to say thank you guys for your advice, but I think I figured it out.... I think that some things within the phone were not getting along. I flashed the SBC-Net-4.2.2-more-havs kernel #11. I fully charged the phone, including bump charge, and I left it on for about an hour or so longer, and I have been unplugged for 1:44, and my awake time is 45 min. I am still reading 100%!!! So I think I am good to go....

Thanks again guys
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] kb9nvh:
After a few months of flaky usb charging from now three different chargers I finally called ATT to do a warranty return on my tilt2 before the thing becomes unchargeable. To my surprise ATT told me that the USB port was NOT coverered under warranty. After escalating through about 3 managers they would not, no way, cover my phone. They did, however after getting to the third level, offer to move me 13 months into the future and give sell me a new phone as if I was not under contract. Overall, this seemed like a pretty good compromise to me. I'm getting a new samsung captivate for 99 bucks.

So, just so you know, USB ports that you have to continually plug and unplug day in and day out and get worn out after a year will NOT be covered under ATT warranty. I did a search and dont see anyone else with this issue so maybe I just did to much charging on my phone over the last year.

Anyone have trouble getting the handcent security lock to work on the Nexus S? Works fine on the N1, but setting the security on the S does not do anything.
[Nexus S Accessories] gietl:
Upgraded from a G1 and found that the Nexus S fit perfectly into the sleeve case that came with the G1. The wife was jealous so I found a place selling through Amazon that has them for about $5. I ordered 2 since mine is pretty worn.

Just some added protection, maybe overkill. It is all plastic I figure this can only help. I'm not a big fan of most of the over the phone cases.
[Nexus S Accessories] coleburns:
got the amazon link?

cheers
[Nexus S Accessories] gietl:
Sure, I didn't know if we could link outside of this site.

http://www.amazon.com/T-Mobile-HTC-...EQJ2/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1293042901&sr=8-7

If the link gets removed just search for: HTC G1 case
[Nexus S Accessories] willverduzco:
I'm considering getting this, but before I order, I was wondering if it would be possible for you to please post a few pics of the device inside of the G1 pouch.

Thanks in advance!
[Nexus S Accessories] rashad1:
Weird, I thought the G1 sleeve was specifically designed and engineered, by the great folks at HTC, to only work with the G1?
[Nexus S Accessories] petep86:
The G1 one is to big, I tried it. But if u hold it in ur hand, the phone can slide out.. I use my nexus one pouch. Its a tight squeeze, but is just perfect, for now.
[Nexus S Accessories] gietl:
My G1 can slide out of the G1 pouch as well. The G1 is definitely thicker, but their overall length is pretty close. I'm sure there is some risk of it coming out easier than the G1.

It works for me, but YMMV.
[Nexus S Accessories] pksen88:
Im temporarily using the g1 pouch on my nexus s and it works great.
[Nexus S Accessories] bogdi1988:
the Nexus One pouch works pretty well also. I am using that temporarily until i get my phone skin next week.

My links are broken because xda says as a "new user" I am not permitted to post outside links in my messages. That apparently includes images.
[Nexus S Accessories] gietl:
We got the new G1 cases yesterday and they are an even tighter fit because they have not been stretched out by a bulky G1.

The way I look at it, they were $5 each shipped. That's it...$5. Most of you just spent $530 on a phone but are worried about spending $5 on a sleeve. :D

It's not the end all be all, but it does the job well and like I think I mentioned before, I hate those protective cases attached to the unit.
[Nexus S Accessories] petep86:
I paid 580 bucks, so I'm sure I can afford the right sleeve n skin for my new phone. Not from my 3 year old phone...

I gave my N-1 to my wife and she has a case so I took the pouch. Great for just sliding in my pocket.

Hey guys, hope i'm posting this in the right place. I am in need of some serious help here! I rooted my wifes Evo via unrevoked and was running myn's RLS4 with no issues. Than i decided to update/flash the radio/wimax combo zip provided by virus on this forum. I did a Nandroid backup before this btw. Well the phone got stuck in the screen with the white box/arrow and android beside it. After a while i did a battery pull. After that the phone would not start up so i tried to flash the nandroid backup i made but it just kept getting stuck on the white screen that says HTC Evo 4G. I had an older nandroid backup of the stock/rooted sprint rom it came with. It let me flash that just fine for some reason but not the newest backup! Well after this the phone was running like CRAP! lagging, random reboots, physically heating up etc. I was directed to Chris Sprint Lovers 3.70 rom by another member. I did the all in one that the phone scans for automatically in bootloader. Worked like a charm and fixed everything BUT............now i cant flash any roms at all. It goes through all the steps when flashing but it gets stuck on the HTC Evo 4G screen everytime! I still have S-off and SU permissions and all root only apps are working fine. I was told to re-root it but that didnt work either. It gets stuck on the part where unrevoked says waiting for root! Can anyone PLEASE PLEASE help me? It would be much appreciated!

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ICEReaction:
I think its because the new radio/pri is not really compatible with older HTC kernels or ROMs that are not based off of build 3.70. You might need to flash the older radio and pri before you can flash other ROMs.

Sup guys. I no doubt get great battery life. Check out my screenshots below. 13 hours with 67% remaining. Thats pretty good. But if you look at my awake and up time youll see ive only have 8 hours awake, with 48 hours of up time. What this means ( for those that dont know ) is my phone hasnt bern rebooted for 48 hours (up time), in those 48 hours, my screen has been on ( ive been doing something on the phone) for 8 hours (awake time). Now on this charge im showing you. I probably only have about 2-3 of those awake hours . As you can see I.bareley used the phone. 40% on call standby u know. Im running netarchy 4.2.1 CFS HAVS More Aggresive Smartass. Which is an awesome kernel. Phone is faster than ever and battery does not drain much while sitting in my pocket. Now what I want is a kernel that will give me 6-7 hours of awake time in one charge period with around fifty percent battery left. Am I dreaming ?? Oh yeah and phone doesnt have to be superfast, just be workable ( basically not frustrating). Any suggestions??

That's about my average. I don't think realistically we can get better than that. I use my phone a good bit. I'm a photojournalist so I'm using the camera/calls/email quite a bit during a normal day. If you make it through a normal day, you are fine. Why fix something that's not broken? Actually, while typing this I realized you said you had 60% left. That's actually a lot better than me. Discribe your usage for me. I can only get about 4 hours of awake time with about 15-16 up before the phone is dead. You however would get about 6 or 7. Jealous.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r.storm85:
Your rite on with my average. I said I had about 2 hours of awake time in one charge with 13 hours since tooken of the charger with 60% left. So yeah in 4 hours of awake I would probably be almost dead too.

ok I have a couple of questions. I am currently running Cyanogenmod 6.1 which is the best rom lol...sorry had to say it. I know I can force roam to Verizon using the built in tool. My first question, why is it when i roam on Verizon I will only receive phone calls when I have data disabled??? data on Verizon is 1x which is used for voice/text. When i have the data option enabled....it puts the caller right to voicemail. Questions number 2.....Is there anyway to use a toggle to switch between EV-DO and 1X... thanks in advance.

[Nook Color Android Development] cicada:
Do not try to Format SD card from Settings -> SD & Phone storage!

- there is currently a bug that causes the system to format the /boot partition instead of /sdcard when this option is used, leaving your NC unbootable. Format your SD card in your PC or another device if you need to! - fixed in 0.6.8!

FIRST BOOT TIPS -

On first boot, Launcher and SoftKeys will fight for control of the home intent - that is, when you boot the first time, your NC will ask you to pick your home activity.

*CHOOSE LAUNCHER* at first (DO NOT select 'always use this action'), and let the system boot and stabilize (3-4 minutes).

Hit Home (the N button). You'll be asked to choose your activity again, this time choose SoftKeys.

Try using one of the SU-required buttons (back or menu), and after a few moments SuperUser will prompt you to accept the action.

SoftKeys 3.06+ now prompt for SU permission at startup, just accept the superuser prompt when it pops, you'll still want to let the system stabilize for a minute or two.

If SoftKeys fails to ask for SU permissions, "Unable to execute as root":

Go to Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications -> 'All'

Select SoftKeys from the list

'Force close' Softkeys if it's running, then 'Clear defaults'

Hit the N button, choose SoftKeys when prompted to choose your home action, accept the SU prompt when it pops.

Workarounds for some known bugs/issues:

(default in 0.5.8+) Improved Refresh-rate (no flicker! thanks [mbm]!): this should set the refresh rate to 68hz, the supposed default for the Nook Color's LCD panel -

adb shell echo 68000,1024/70/200/40,600/10/11/10 > /sys/devices/omapdss/display0/timings

Browser: force closes when opening a website that tries to use location services, due to the missing GPS. Try browsing to a url by typing in the google search box, and if you can get into the browser menu changing your homepage away from google will stop it from FC'ing on open.

Lockscreen wrong size: Simply reboot to correct this.

Touchscreen is slow/unresponsive:

Turn your screen off and then back on.

Disable Haptic Feedback in Settings -> Sounds.

Also, see this page for a possible calibration fix: http://nookdevs.com/Recalibrate_the_NookColor_touch_screen

(fixed in 0.5.6 w/included SoftKeys 3.00) No buttons! Try: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=860153

(fixed in 0.5.6) SoftKeys - in 0.5.1 softkeys' buttons do not work due to a permissions issue. To fix, do:

adb shell mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk1p2 /system
adb shell chmod 0755 /system/bin/input

Please post issues/workarounds/bugs in this thread, I'll try to keep this list updated.
[Nook Color Android Development] fattire:
To answer from the other thread...

Timeframe-- well, this isn't me doing this. But I think the devs just want to take the edges off, so be patient... I'm just the messenger on the news that it's been done. This is other people's accomplishment.

In fact, froyo was done weeks ago, though not entirely from open-source/freely distributed components like this (as far as I know).

To answer some questions--

BT not working, FM not working, accellerometer not working. Softkeys should work... dont' see why not anyway. It's stock froyo. No gapps, no Superuser.apk, no nothing over and above AOSP. Overclocking not in but should be possible... video playback hasn't been tried (it's early still!).... battery life who knows I haven't even had a chance to let it run down... I posted because the news was "out" anyway. I also can't compare to stock because I've never run stock, believe it or not. But it's based on the same kernel 2.6.29. It boots off a SD partitioned for system, data, cache, and sdcard. Only thing (I think) it touches on the internal storage is resetting that boot counter, otherwise you'd only get 7 boots at a time. Doesn't need much space. 2GB should be enough. That's what phones have anyway. Guess it depends what you want to do with it. Performance is decent, not steller compared to my g2 at least. Will benefit from OC.

It defiantly isn't for the faint of heart but it seems to work well enough as a good base to start on. Pretty snappy to boot.

I would like to emphasize that this is VERY rough around the edges and if you aren't planning on hacking with the kernel, or code, or attempting to make your own rom then this is NOT for you.

Does this include a working JIT or is that one of the things in progress?

That seems to be one of the more compelling things from froyo (at least for a device with more internal storage than a nexus one). I would expect (well, hope anyway) that the froyo JIT would have a noticeable impact on the speed...

I am not a developer.

I am not likely to become one at this stage of the game...

I am, however, either brave or stupid because I am downloading the image and will see if it will boot on my NC.

I do this because:

A) I want to SEE froyo running on my NC, and

2) If I have any problems, feedback might help the devs

I love seeing all the progress that has been made on these things. :)
