guys hello,

i am new at the android "scene"

andd i need some help. a lot of people report that oxygen v2 rc5 is a lot

faster-smoother than htc sense. now from what i read it's based on gingerbread

right? and if so if i flash my DHD will i be able to root? and if yes could you provide

a noob's guide to flash my DHD?

thanx in advance.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blinkydamo:
Oxygen, isn't that for the standard desire? CM6.1.3 is fast and android stock. Isn't gingerbread yet though.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sivallakos:
don't ask me i am the noob here!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blinkydamo:
Did you find it in the development section for the DHD??

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sivallakos:
ok so do you have any other rom to suggest.

i am looking for one that isn't lacking any features,

is stable and has a smoother scrolling look on like an

iphone.

ps: no i don't want an iphone i just want my brother

who has one to stop using the only advantage of his phone

over mine to annoy me.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blinkydamo:
Just backup your existing Rom and start flashing Rom's. LeeDroid is popular, I run CM6.1.3 which I think is very good. Have a play and see what you like. Enjoy.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sivallakos:
one last thing --> how do you flash a new rom???????
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blinkydamo:
Read the sticky threads on the developers thread. You really need to understand what your doing before going any further.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sivallakos:
ok thanx, will do.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sivallakos:
ok so i got everything figured out. it's not as difficult as i thought

but there's a small problem. i install clockworkmod recovery from rom manager

but when i get into recovery i see the phone with the triangle. then i press

volume+ and power and the menu appears but it only has the 4 basics

no nandroid. what do i do?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.m0x:
Sounds like you don't have s-off. If you don't have s-off your recovery will be restored to the factory version when you reboot.

Go to the development section and grab the "one click radio s-off" tool. It will take care of the problem for you.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sivallakos:
ok gonna try that thanx.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] irteza_h:
read and do this first

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=841076

then choose any rom from the development section .. place the downloaded file on your sd card .. reboot into recovery choose install zip from sd card .. navigate to your downloaded file and install

I would recommend Android Revolution HD or Leedroid if you are looking for something very stable ..
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sivallakos:
ok guys thanx for your help but idecided not

to flash because i did some tricks and now my phone running fine.

1)uninstalled task manager (i am on froyo and you know the rest. haha)

2)uninstalled setcpu (i read somewhere that it may cause problems when running even if not profiles or any sort of overclock are active. that was the case with me, although i will miss the 245mhz screen-off profile.)

3)reduced my widgets and pages from 9 to 3 and 6 to 2 respectively

4)changed some options in launcher pro

these resulted in no more fc's and a lot smoother scrolling in menu, sms, homescreens etc.

despite the fact that when i scroll slowly between homescreens it's a bit laggy.

overall great.

thx again guys. if nothing else, i learnt a lot.

***Thanks also to Joeykrim for helping me verify a few things on how this works - and for testing it out***

A lot of people have removed the due to not knowing what it did, and concern over the "big brother" possibility. Here is EXACTLY what the app is for, and how we in the dev community can utilize it. I have included the file for you to reinstall as needed. Installing it into /system/app will autoload it for you.

It's purpose is to provide logging of various aspects of the device when you're having issues, and help you identify exactly where those issues are occurring. This includes:

dumpstate (bug report)

dumpsys

Device logs

Radio logs

Events log

Kernel log

To use it:

Dial *#*#HTCLOG#*#* (*#*#482564#*#*)

You're presented with 3 options (Collect Log Files, Snapshot Report, System Loggers)

- Collect Log Files gives you options to move the log files to the SD card

- Snapshot Report let's you run "dumpstate" and "dumpsys"

- System Loggers gives you some options

- Device Logger

- Radio Logger

- Events Logger

- Kernel Logger

Enable the logs you want, then enable "Auto Start Logging"

- you need to do this in order to have the logs start

-

Hit the "Back" key twice to return to the home screen

Reboot and then wait for the issue to reproduce

When the issue does occur make note of what time the issue occured

Copy the logs off of your SD card and and find the time the issue occured and begin to analyze what was happening

When you're done, don't forget to go back into the HTC Logging and disable logging

Reboot to clear the HTC Logging auto start

I installed and pushed the dialer code on cm7 rc0 and it ran. I wonder if this would help the devs with accessing the radio thru a dialer code and app in AOSP, like htc uses? Its the app itself that responds to dialer codes.

Well I tried it on a HTC MyTouch 3G 1.2(Magic) running Cyanogenmod 6.1(2.2.1) and could not get it to work. When I entered the last star in the sequence, the screen went black and then back to the dialer. Any ideals?

Ok it just automatically rebooted, removing apk.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jerdog:
Yeah this is in EVO 4G for a reason. On new versions of HTC phones they will probably have this - but right now it's only the EVO that does.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] bioan:
You only have to pull out the framework-res.apk from /system/framework/framework-res.apk.

After pulling it out, go to circle.glx.nl and then cook your theme.

After that put the zip into SD card, boot in recovery and apply it.

[Droid X General] paxderomano:
Hope someone can help me with this problem. So my phone was rooted a while ago (I don't remember the method I used) and I installed the OTA update from early December no problem but lost root in the process.

Since then my phones been having a pain in the ass rebooting issue everyday. It'll constantly reboot for no reason. I had read somewhere that rerooting the phone will solve this.

So I downloaded Z4 and was able to install it. But every time I try to root my phone using Z4 the program will run for a while and then freeze my phone entirely forcing me to remove the battery to reboot it.

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? I already tried making sure the phone was in debugging mode as I had read some peoples posts saying it didn't work for them otherwise. Any help would be appreciated, all these random reboots are driving me crazy.

[Desire General] ballandbiscuit:
Hi,

I am currently running CM6 on my desire which I am happy with. I want to run non sense ROMS only. Oxygen looks interesting as does DeFrost. What are the differences between these and CM? The biggest issue I have with CM6 is that the notifcation LED only flashes orange and isn't customisable. Ideally I would like different colours for different types of alert, at the bare miniumum one colour for email and a different one for SMS and missed calls.

I have not partitioned my SD card in any special manner and have not done the S-OFF thing. I am think these are things I might need to look at as the phone keeps complaining about low storage space even with everything I can move being moved to SD card. Any thoughts on this?

Thanks for your advice

[Captivate Themes and Apps] whiteguypl:
Looks nice. I love cog but hate its default boot.

Edit: One thing I think would make it look just a tad nicer would be if the attention logo you use matched the first att boot image. Even without that matching it still looks nice.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] AtariBorn:
Originally, that was the idea. Was harder than I thought to recreate it. Just to get everything lined up perfect would take forever, considering the initial flash screen was my only frame of reference. Unless I could find that image floating around somewhere, I would have to reboot the phone just to eyeball the image I was trying to duplicate.

[Nook Color General] robheb:
I rooted my color nook and it just didn't seem to be working correctly so I did extensive reading here on how to unroot it. I did a hard reset and all seems well through the B&N registration process but then the Android character comes on the screen with "Welcome to logicPD Zoom2" at the bottom of the screen and it makes me go through a google registration process BUT the software thinks the Nook is a phone and so of course can't connect to complete the registration.

I can cancel out of that but the "extras" screen still shows the "Market" App, Superuser app, etc. whih o course means that it is still rooted.

I have tried cancelling out of the google registration process and activiating a wireless connection (which works fine) and then signing in through gmail and I get a screen that says "Your phone needs to communicate with Google servers to set up your account. This may take up to five minutes." This is then followed by a screen that says "Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server. This could be a temporay problem or your phne may not be provisioned for datat services. If it continues, call Customer Care."

So it is not unrooting and it still thinks it is a phone. I have ttried the "8 times" powering up and can't get past the fifth time without it just continuing through the boot process.

Thanks for reading this far. I would appreciate any guidance.

Robert
[Nook Color General] lopezpm:
I would keep trying the 8 times reboot process, then after that has completed you have to erase it and de-register it.

You can also try the 2nd method of 8 times reboot through adb,

Set the Boot counter to 8 by typing

If you have installed adb to your desktop, and if your computer is in a state where adb is working, you can go to the directory where you have adb.exe installed and type the following three commands:

adb shell

echo -n -e "\x08\x00\x00\x00" > /rom/devconf/BootCnt

reboot

Part two: ReImage the /data part. This is called Factory Reset

After re-imaging /system in step one, you need to perform a SECOND process to clear /data.

Method 1: Hardware Key Combination

With the NOOKcolor powered off hold down the n button (home) and Power Button until the NOOKcolor powers on.

You will be prompted with a Factory Reset dialog.

Press POWER key to Exit

Press HOME key to continue

Press n button (home).

You will be prompted to confirm.

Press POWER key to Exit

Press HOME key to continue

Press n button (home).

A Clearing Data dialog will show. NOOKcolor will reboot automatically once complete.

Method 2: "Erase & Deregister Device"

Go to Settings

Select "Device Info" under the top "Device Settings" section

Select "Erase & Deregister Device"

Select the "Erase & Deregister Device" button

You will be prompted with the following confirmation dialog

Are you sure you want to reset your Nook?

Doing so will return your Nook to factory settings, erase local content and deregister this device.

Cancel Reset Nook

Select the "Reset Nook" button

A Deregistration message will appear and NOOKcolor will reboot.

Upon reset a Clearing data message will appear

Clearing data...

A reset is being performed.

This may take a few minutes.

NOOKcolor will reboot again once complete.

[Nook Color General] Musicman247:
As stated above, you can't just do one or the other, you have to do both the 8 resets and then the factory reset.
[Nook Color General] robheb:
This worked!!!

I was able to get through the "eight times" method using the power button (which is a good thing and the adb option is likely beyond my abilities). It seems that the power button needs to be held down for at least ten seconds after the scrren goes dark each time.

I then used "Method 2" of data clearing and I am back to out of the box condition.

You guys are rock stars. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Variation of this problem - troubleshooting suggestions?

Can someone suggest a way out of THIS problem?

NC will not boot if SD card is inserted. (Tried 2 different cards with clockwork).

NC boots to LogicPd Zoom2 welcome screen if started without SD card - but icons are unresponsive.

Tried 3 button reset and then restarting 8 times from LogicPd Zoom 2 screen - no luck.

Tried the same from the ANDROID welcome screen just before Logic PD Zoom screen - no luck.

Loaded SDB on my computer but can't get it to recognize the NC; no device is detected. (Tried changing up drivers with no effect).

Tried letting the NC power run down to zero. Won't start in this state and when I recharge, it puts me back into Logic PD screen.

The only progress I've made is that if I let the NC run down to 15% battery power, I get a low battery icon. Clicking that icon will take me to the android settings menu.

Any ideas on what's wrong and how to correct given the limited control I have?

My Droid 2 global's battery life is not good,nearly 1 day for each full charge(i used room fission 2.4.3)Is there any way to improve the battery life:confused:
[Droid 2 Global General] botnryan:
If you're getting a whole day out of one charge that's outstanding battery life.

Sent from my Droid 2 Global running Fission Rom
[Droid 2 Global General] duyvuong:
Too sad to hear that:( exacly i used about 20 hours.How about you?i heard that if use CDMA the battery life will better?
[Droid 2 Global General] adridge:
I've heard something of the like, but nothing conclusively. I've heard that underclocking the cpu can help (if you want to root your phone). So can using a rom like Fission, which doesn't have the stock Blur that, although somewhat nice, is a big drain on batteries. This would naturally be a pretty big change though. You can also get the extended battery for <$50 which I heard helps a bunch.
[Droid 2 Global General] duyvuong:
Yep,underclocking the cpu and use room Fission make the battery maintain more longer(i'm using gsm not cdma).In my country (VietNam) someone sells Droid's battery for only 10$,i'm thinking to get one
[Droid 2 Global General] eaglewwit:
Just got my D2G, I put it on CDMA only and the battery still sucks. It went from 80% to 40% overnight and it was set for night time battery save mode.
[Droid 2 Global General] ben7337:
Wow that's strange, I left my phone overnight not charging because it hit 100% before I went to bed, and 10 hrs later it was still at 90%, sitting idle my phone uses nearly no power. However I never used the battery save mode and I only just recently put it in only CDMA mode just to see if that makes life any better.
[Droid 2 Global General] zse45tgb:
I've found that the biggest drain on the battery is having mobile data switched on in an area where the phone can't keep a clear lock on 3G and is constantly switching between 1x and 3G.

After switching to Fission, underclocking, keeping gps and wifi off unless I'm using them, turning the brightness down to 10% except when outside in the sun, and managing apps that sync background data, I can use the phone pretty heavily and get a full day (15-18 hours) out of my battery. Considering I put it in the media dock for use as my alarm clock every night, that amount of battery life is perfectly fine.

BTW, I use SetCPU for underclocking. I set the max speed to 1GHz with On Demand scaling. I also have profiles to scale down the speed to 600MHz when the battery gets low or when the screen is off (which helps with the background data stuff). At 600MHz it's still faster than my original Droid, thanks to the doubling of memory in the D2G.
[Droid 2 Global General] eaglewwit:
So far Today after 5 hours of moderate use I went from 100 At 50 on the battery. Is this normal?

Update:

Phone on for 7 hours and the battery is down to 30%, something must be wrong, right?
[Droid 2 Global General] zse45tgb:
Check what's been using the battery. That might help pinpoint what's going on.
[Droid 2 Global General] leobg:
I wouldn't call it very unusual TBH
[Droid 2 Global General] sangamc:
900 am to 900pm and battery down to 30% with moderate usage. I hope there is someway to improve this. My iphone during the same time period with about the same usage and at least an hour playing bejewled only droped to 70%
[Droid 2 Global General] ckfalls:
zse45tgb,

Does SetCPU only require root and SU?? BTW I used SetCPU on my Eris and it was a lifesaver.

Haven't gone the Fission route just yet but loved ROMs on my Eris, such a battery saver. Really hope the dev's can make it happen.
[Droid 2 Global General] saggar:
Don't mean to sound like a twit here, but I used to have a huge problem with the battery life... when I was dicking around with it for hours at a time. Try only using it when you need to. Don't sit on facebook/maps/using it for pointless things for extended periods of time. I have found that just using it moderately has had the most dramatic impact on battery life. I can maintain complete functionality of my phone when I need it, and still have at least 50% battery by midnight. If you are using it that heavily, then maybe you should carry a charger around with you? Hope this helps.
[Droid 2 Global General] botnryan:
Idk how you guys get such terrible batt life. i have mine OVERclocked to 1.35 ghz. i also have profiles to lower that as the batt goes down. I have everything that updates set to update every 30 mins, which is quite frequent. i dont mess with screen brightness, i let it auto adjust. I play games on occasion (SNESoid), facebook frequently, alot of texting and my battery lasts 18-20 hours every day, consistently. When you first got the phone you let it charge for 8 hours right away right? if not...theres your problem, and your battery will probably self destruct in a few months...give or take a few months lol.
[Droid 2 Global General] blakzer0:
Use The Following Settings to Help Maxmize Your Battery Life

I've been using the following settings on the Fission 2.4.3 Rom and I've noticed my battery life has increased at least 6-8 hours longer. I was considering returning my D2G before, but now it is definitely manageable.

Installing the SIM Card HotFix using the Fission Rom Manager

Adjusting my mobile networks to "CDMA / EvDo auto" in "Settings" -> "Wireless Networks" -> "Mobile Networks" -> "Network Mode"

Underclocking my CPU to 1Ghz using SetCpu

If you really want to save some more power combine these settings with Juice Defender. I've noticed a bit of lag here and there while using it, but that's the trade off for longer battery life.

I can confirm zse45tgb post about losing a lot of battery in an areas with poor 3g reception. When I'm at work my battery will drop much faster then when I'm at home where my 3g reception is great.

Props to AngDroid and the rest of Team Defuse.

Hope this helps someone else out there begin to enjoy their D2G.
