I got my 16gb Class 10 Patriot off of frys.com for $40, it was a little cheaper on newegg, but they didn't have it in stock. It doesn't get any better if you come into the city, I looked around here for a day or two and didn't find anything close to what I could get online, it just sucked waiting a couple days for it to be shipped...

chogardjr's blue theme

Hey guys, just flashed chogardjr's blue theme signed 12811 but it did not set my wallpaper to the dragon. I have looked everywhere I can think of to look to find it on the phone and set it as the wallpaper without luck. Should this have been an automatic setting after it completed the flash?

Catching on to enough to be dangerous but not enough to know what I did wrong.

Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] chogardjr:
Yes I am going to do small changes to mostly the taskbar. I've got a new battery icon I really like but I want to speed up the charge animation. It's like 1002 lines of changes in XML code. But I'll never leave the blue, that's my color, seen my avatar? My graphic design.

[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
Well, the possibility is that his theme is calling for animations that the folder you dragged in there doesn't have and it's causing it to crash.

Anyway, instead of deleting his folder, have you considered just opening the /anim/ folder and dragging the animations over as a group and just "copy and replacing" the ones with the same names?

Well my huge database and website development project is done. Kind of depressing in a way.
[EVO 4G Android Development] live2ride96:
Yeah, all our kids are growing up. *sniff, sniff*

Anyway, to answer a few questions here, first of all, from everything I've read, the 800 MHz snapdragon used in the shift is actually quicker than our 1 GHz AND better on battery since its the next gen processor.

Second, I do believe mikfroyo would have to be ported to the shift which would detract from our mik-time. We don't want that. Lol.

[EVO 4G Android Development] WhiteiceDMSTech:
I was wondering if you all can help me in trying to figure out what seems to be draining my battery today.

I switched from Sense to LauncherPro a day or two ago (been using LP Plus for a few months, HTC Hero and EVO) I kind of changed my layout around and I recently added Simi Clock.

Today it has gone from a full charge from when I took it off the charge about 5 hours ago and its down to 47% already. It hasn't been like this, except today.

I don't know how to go about checking/monitoring what is draining the battery so I can attempt to correct it.

How should I go about doing this?

One other question, with the new MikFroyo soon to be released, did I hear that it has 5 icons in the launch doc like Launcher Pro does? The main reason I use LP Plus is because of the 5 item dock on the bottom plus the scrollable dock so it gives me 15 items in total. Wasn't sure if this was something similar that will be in 4.5 or not.

Thank you,

Whiteice
[EVO 4G Android Development] live2ride96:
I did drag and drop with 7zip. I'm assuming it auto-replaced files with the same name, since the file list didn't seem to grow. I'm not getting any crashing, just that only a small portion of the animations end up as the "bounce" ones. Everything operates ok though.

+1 on Battery Monitor Widget
[EVO 4G Android Development] live2ride96:
It can be quite difficult to pinpoint what is draining your battery (trust me-it took me a while to figure out I just had a defective epic.) For monitoring my battery level in a graph, I absolutely prefer juiceplotter to see IF I'm actually getting excessive drain. If it recently started happening, you probably have a rogue app running away. Did you just flash a new kernel? If so, sometimes it can take a few cycles for them to settle in. Try deleting your most recently installed apps one at a time until you find the culprit. Or sometimes a simple reboot can fix battery drain issues.

Sent from my MikFroyo'd, custom Chogardjr'd Evo, plain and simple.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jkcpsal:
I haven't heard that before but I do agree it would be awesome. As far a battery drain check battery info in spare parts to see if any apps are holding a wakelock or otherwise behaving badly

[EVO 4G Android Development] DrBump471:
So what you are saying is, when my wife is sleeping I need to take this stuff???

While I typically don't take peoples information from Best Buy or Sprint Stores, everyone we talked to about the Shift, dogged the crap out of it. Claiming the Evo and Epic where so much better than the Shift. Stats this and stats that. Kind of sad. Sorry for the miss information. Will edit it out.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
No, I apologize. You did nothing wrong. It is a mixture of my being generally grumpy today (yes, that happens) and being tired of hearing about poor battery life.

There is nothing in this rom that will make your battery life worse - if anything, the optimizations will make it better. If your battery life is worse than usual, it is likely the kernel you are running or some app that is blowing you up.

People forget that an EVO is supposed to only last 6 hours of normal use on one charge. It has always had terrible battery life. The new phones coming out will have much better life with improved electronics and shrunken dye sizes.

If you get through an entire workday on a single charge count yourself lucky.
[EVO 4G Android Development] WhiteiceDMSTech:
The reason why I asked is because I have been using the rom for a few weeks and I know it works fine. But over the last few days something has changed on my phone that I noticed over a few hours that I lost half my battery already.

I asked in this thread because of the amount of help and expertise I have received since converting to this rom and trust the help from people in this thread.

I want to get to the bottom of what changed on my phone so I can correct it, but I am not an expert at this stuff.

:)

Whiteice
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
I guess my point is that the rom isn't your problem. You are better off researching threads where they discuss battery life in detail. Very few people using MikFroyo have battery issues, so we don't tend to be as knowledgeable regarding solutions.

I own 3 1500 mah batteries and a wallcharger. When I go out, I carry the extra batteries in a little leather zippered wallet. When my phone runs low, I just switch out the battery if I don't have access to ac power.

[EVO 4G Android Development] live2ride96:
Same here. After a little looking, I found legitimate OEM batteries for $15 each on eBay. I don't worry about battery too much when I get 12-18 hours of moderate use and an extra battery. Sorry. Not my strong point.

Sent from my MikFroyo'd, custom Chogardjr'd Evo, plain and simple.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
Well, there can be many reasons for that:

1) Your ISP may just be putting out a slow signal for some reason (working on lines, etc.) - Test it on your pc.

2) Your router needs rebooting - unplug your modem and router for a minute then plug in modem first and once it refreshed, plug in router. Then turn off your phone WIFi, reboot and turn it back on again.

3) Make sure that whatever tool you are using to test Wifi has the nearest possible location chosen. One time my Wifi was testing very slow until I realized I was testing a signal from somewhere in Helsinki.
[EVO 4G Android Development] doorpz:
I don't think I could handle putting that in my pocket, it's already big enough with just a case on the normal one. I always tell people who ask about my phone that there is no real reason anybody should carry around a phone this big other than it's easy to read ebooks on. My brother got the LG optimus S and to me that is a pretty ideal android phone as far as size, battery life and software goes (has froyo stock even though the epic still hasn't been updated).
[EVO 4G Android Development] shogun26:
Not for me. I never carry it in my pocket anyway. I just love the huge screen.
[EVO 4G Android Development] 1BadHEMI:
Well thats because its a LG and NOT a Samsung... :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] live2ride96:
There's more to a phone than speed though. I HATED that they put the keyboard on the epic. Form factor was way too thick for my taste. That's why I got rid of it for the evo. Its just that a lot of people see 800 MHz processor and assume it's inferior. Strictly speaking about the CPU/gpu, that's not the case at all. The shift is a really nice phone if you like the form factor.

Is that the only change you made when the horrible battery life began? Lot's of things can affect battery life.

How long have you let it run? It's hard to tell if kernels are going to be good/bad/indifferent w/out letting them go thru a couple or 3 charge cycles.

Having said as much, look in my signature for the kernel I'm using. If you go thru a few charge cycles and it's still bad, try the one I'm using. It's been working great for me.
[EVO 4G Android Development] 3volution:
Yeah,I have had it about a week now so time to try something else I guess & see if I get any difference.

Thanks bro,I'll try it out.

Someone else asked what PRI,I have 1.90 but never had bat issues until I flashed this particular kernel.
[EVO 4G Android Development] raybudd:
You can try the one in my setup, but basically it's trial n error. I went thru several kernels before I foiund the one that works for me. Just make sure to give it a couple of days/battery charge cycles to give it a chance to level off.
