I'm sure the market has an app for that ;-)

Edit: I use batteryminder Free to clear the battery stats that your talking about. It has an option in there and alot of cool features
[EVO 4G Android Development] schmooo:
isnt there an option for that in recovery
[EVO 4G Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
Unfortunately awake time cannot be checked as it is in Sense roms, only time since boot. You can get more information about battery consumption in Spare Parts (in terms of what is using a greater % of your battery), and I recommend investigating the Partial Wake Usage; this usually is the culprit of battery drain.

In regards to wiping battery stats, the option is in recovery (I use Amon RA 2.2.1). If you do wipe battery stats, keep this calibration protocol in mind:

1) Charge to 100% (with phone OFF, wait for green LED)

2) Boot to recovery, wipe stats, and reboot.

3) Once booted, unplug charger and discharge with normal usage until phone turns itself off. Do not use like crazy, but do not conserve like crazy either, the point is to calibrate the battery to how you would normally use the phone.

4) Once completely discharged, recharge until full and use/charge as normal. The first 10 cycles will continue calibration (although no need to fully discharge before charging after the first cycle), so your cycles should get longer over time.

This process is useful when experiencing excessive battery drain, and is essential when coming from a Sense rom (as the battery is calibrated for completely different usage). Hopefully this helps out, but if you have other questions let me know.
[EVO 4G Android Development] davenukem:
What I mean is that the about phone battery pane is not going back to zero minutes when I plug in my phone. Do I need to wipe my battery stats every time?
[EVO 4G Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
Hmm ... no, that is odd. I can't say I've encountered that problem before, nor heard anything along those lines. Is it interfering with operations somehow?
[EVO 4G Android Development] davenukem:
Not really but at the same time... I can't investigate wake lock issues.

Anybody want to investigate if maybe there's is also doing the same thing mine is?
[EVO 4G Android Development] OgremustCrush:

Have you turned off compatibility mode in spare parts? Turning it off makes a lot of apps that don't scale fill the screen. Still doesn't guarantee they will scale perfectly, but in my experience it works well enough most of the time.

Posted by my rooted EVO 4G
[EVO 4G Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
Actually, using that to discover wakelock issues isn't the most efficient method. In spare parts you can glean a wealth of Battery History information, the most beneficial for wakelock problems (most of the time, of course) being Partial Wake Usage. This gives you the % each application uses of partial wake time / time since unplugging, and you can check if those are resetting if you check it while charging (it won't provide statistics). If those stats aren't working, just do a reboot. You need to give yourself an hour after unplugging to see how the system is affected anyway, this just adds a couple extra minutes. :)

Has anyone tried JuiceDefender with this? My battery life is for **** (I've tried various ROMs and kernels, did battery wipes, cache/dalvik cache wipes, even reset everything last night, all to no avail) and my roommate is recommending it, but it says in the market that it doesn't have "full" GB support yet.

Curious as to whether it has ANY GB support or if it'll just not work right now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] thedudejdog:
i tried it a couple weeks ago and it wouldn't got through the setup. it was the beta version from the market i don't remember the version number. so at that time it had no GB/EVO support
[EVO 4G Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
I used JuiceDefender when on Eclair, but even when I upgraded to Froyo I experienced big problems. Tell your roommate about SuperPower; it offers the same features as JuiceDefender, but is a much cleaner and simpler interface, meaning it doesn't use as much of system resources. Also, its radio on/off controller is MUCH faster than JD. I swear by the thing, it routinely gave me 35+ hours per charge. Plus ... its free in the market :). Check my signature for a link to it on AppBrain.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sup3rmark:
Sweet, does it work with GB? Your sig says the "perfect Evo" runs CM 6.1.2 so I don't want to assume you're running CM7 :P
[EVO 4G Android Development] dkelle4:
Looks like there was a ton of camera updates yesterday, looking forward to the 1/11 build!
[EVO 4G Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
Haha touche, sir. I have tried Lithid's CM7-RC0 and I LOVE it; it is so fast and responsive, but the GPS is spotty and I use Navigation like people use pants, so I always end up reverting to CM 6.1.2. That said, while on CM7 I used SuperPower and experienced no problems, it still ran as it did on Froyo. I should mention that (like anything else) you should mess with the settings before running it. There are a TON of different customizable features, some that are really helpful for things other than battery life (like forcing 3G while tethering or running certain applications), and some default features that you may want to turn off (like the battery low threshold at 30% - I set it at 10).

But good luck!

The consensus is that this is a problem for some but not for everyone, depending on geography. It doesn't work for me and hasn't since CM6 nightlies first started.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ace586:
Known issue with all AOSP roms. Root cause is something in the differences between GSM and CDMA and they way they handle SMS delivery (i.e. GSM doesn't complain about 160+ char texts, CDMA does) and the fact that AOSP is geared toward GSM phones. Handcent has an option to split long texts.

I agree, it would be nice to have the option built into the stock messaging app, but it seems like it's a low priority. Just the same, seems like it could be solved relatively gracefully with a basic if (SmsMessage.length > 160) {} [or whatever the hell the relevant class/object/attribute/variable/whatever is] statement. If I ever get around to actually jumping into Android development, I might try to figure it out.

I'm really bad at setting aside time for side projects though. Eclipse is sitting there with everything set up just collecting dust.

Can anyone confirm that you can bring up the power prompt with the phone locked? Is this a regression? If I recall correctly, you previously couldn't do anything without unlocking the phone besides music controls.

[EVO 4G Android Development] lithid-cm:
Cool, but there haven't been any real changes for it to be "updated". I think that there was a FM radio update and libstagefright. But thanks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] yubby:
FM radio would be nice.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ms79723:
Last question!

With these updates, would I be able to flash the new build right over the other? Or would I have to wipe and then flash? Or is this one of those things where I could flash the new build over the other, but it would be best if I didnt?
[EVO 4G Android Development] lithid-cm:
I have been able to just fine. Some haven't make a nandroid. Then flash without wiping. If it works awesome if not you have an nandoid to recovery to backup some things.

Alright so I want to try and compile CM7 myself, but before I do I have some quick questions that are probably pretty basic (or not, who knows). I am on a 64bit mac running snow leopard, I know that the instuctions in the OP are for linux, so do I have to do ./ prior to putting in the commands? And being on a mac, can I still follow the instructions to a T or would some of the commands be different? And do I need anything else besides SDK? Sorry if these are lame questions, Im trying to learn and figured tackling this would be a good place to start! :)

Oh and typically how long does it take to compile?

2.10 ... brand new.
[EVO 4G Android Development] rstuckmaier:
Ah, at first I kept thinking that this wasn't a big deal (after all widget locker lets you access the notification bar or power off the phone without unlocking).

Ok, actually, I was thinking this was a huge issue because someone could get into recovery without knowing your password... but they could also pull the battery and vol-down power on, so my point is moot.
[EVO 4G Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
Yes, but the likelihood of a 5-year-old playing with your phone and accidentally rebooting in recovery and wiping everything is higher than the battery pull, vol-down power on. Granted, both of those scenarios are HIGHLY unlikely, but I've seen crazy things from kids.

[EVO 4G Android Development] jakweeze:
I had looked at going to 2.10, but I haven't found (after searching) what if any the benifits of updating past any of the 0.7x series of hboot were, also I had heard that when updating to 2.xx it would break root and you are required to reroot, can you confirm this for yourself and let me know what if any the benifits / changes are?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Askym:
anyone know the link to a channel log?
[EVO 4G Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
From what I can see, absolutely zero. Only reason I had it is because I just got a replacement Evo that was on the 3.70 ota, my previous was .97. HBoot 2.10 DID break root, but the new Unrevoked 3.31 handles it beautifully.

But there is no benefit whatsoever to upgrading HBoot, I'm pretty sure they only do it on OTAs to slow down the rooting process.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jakweeze:
That's kind of the drift that I had got! Glad to see that I'm on the correct page and didn't bother updating that when I updated everything else instead :)

ok. this is prolly a stoopid linux question but here goes...

i set up a script to sync, compile and move and it works nicely.

ONLY

if i am in the folder where the script resides. its sitting at home/me/android/system/cm7bms.sh

if i am in /system i can type cm7bms and away it goes.

if i am at /home (for example) i get...the following, which is

~ $ ./android/system/cm7bms.sh

Make clean

make: *** No rule to make target `clean'. Stop.

make: *** No rule to make target `installclean'. Stop.

Syncing

error: command 'sync' requires repo to be installed first.

Use "repo init" to install it here.

Copying the make file​

i get the same response if i "sh android/system/cm7bms.sh " or "./android/system/cm7bms.sh "

here are the first few lines of the code

echo "Make clean";
make clean

everyone is having this same problem!(well maybe not all folks on CM7RCO) and i am just about feed up with it! for the most part this (non) official build is pretty damn stable,, but we have been having these GPS issues since the beginning and im like, why is this not being fixed? GPS is very important to me!(And as i have read to many others as well!) i have used this as a daily but im now say F#$% all kanged copies! i needs me something stable! never thought that i would feel this way,, but im going back to a sense rom until the real deal deal comes out,, i mean if they can ever get it done! And i don't think that this has anything to do with Lithid,, as far as i can gather he is just using the work that cmsrc is finishing/committing and compiling them for us non coding/compiling folk,, and i am saying thank you to Lithid right now,, again

EDIT! i was very upset when responding! i was on my way to a drywall job today and was made late due to faulty GPS, so i vented! this whole hit and miss with the gps is ridiculous! it worked all day the day before and i really didn't need it,, and when i do, it failed terribly, sorry
[EVO 4G Android Development] Leoisright:
If its worth anything I seemed to have most problems with installing the repo tool. Check lithids first post and go from there.

Each time I got an error compiling I needed to start over even when stupid typos.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Leoisright:
Relax a little. Its still a work in progress. If you need GPS that bad for something then just flash a different ROM. It takes what 5 minutes most to flash a froyo rom to use GPS. Then flash back. Its in its alpha stage still so deal with it and have fun with even having gb on ur phone.

Not trying to be a jerk but really? You don't think they want everything to be working 100%. They are trying and we are the lab rats if you will. It will be fixed sooner than later ya know.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Crsdr37:
Wow no offense but thats why its called alpha and beta there are known issues. If you think you can fix GPS faster you do it. CM does this for free yes every dev asks for donations because It takes a lot of time to build. But the GPS is the most complex besides 4g and HDMI. So please we do not need this here.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Rippley05:
Well, these "kanged" builds weren't intended for everyone to use.. so no, they prolly don't care too much about GPS not working for people when they haven't even released their cm7 nightlies yet.

They'll get it, they always do.. in the meantime.. there are plenty of fully functional roms to use.... and unlike these builds, those roms are intended to be used by everyone.

I went back to cm6.1 until cm 7 is stable; everyone please quit complaining about problems with free software and STOP INSTALLING IT if it doesnt work right for you..
[EVO 4G Android Development] jyarborough:
read my edit! and i do and have donated,, just for the simple fact that i dont know how to do what they do! i have said my "im sorries" in the edited post! and i have seem much worst in this xda community than my little fit! i have been running cm since 6.0 they are the best!:D
[EVO 4G Android Development] Rippley05:
Exactly, they thinking that whining is gonna somehow speed the process? Please point out where there is an official cm7 build intended for release to the public by the people who actually made it?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Leoisright:
I think the point has been made. Ur right its one thing to point out bugs to help the devs do their magic but another to rant and rave. That's why I have GPS in my truck. Honestly I'm just super happy my video works now I can take vids of my son playing to share with family.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Leoisright:
So. How bout the weather.... lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] Rippley05:
I see the edit. I guess it's just a hard lesson learned then~

Honestly tho, if there is a few threads with these builds and every single one of them are reporting funky GPS, why in the world would you rely on something like that for work?

Get you a good nand of a working ROM and just use this GB as a novelty for now.. it will be good once it's actually released.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jyarborough:
Once again for all those who i may have offended,, i am trully sorry! i know that these builds are not intended for daily use! and trust i do love even having a taste of GB on my sexy evo! so once again i am sorry for my vent! i will continue to do cm as they are the cream of the crop!
