So ... After 50 hours without Gallery3D.apk, Froyo says that my battery is at 50% ! :) I confess I didn't phone a lot ... but it's incomparable with the original battery life.

I haven't noticed any trouble in using my phone during this time.

Also, each time I use an App and exit it (GPS Test or GPS Status for example) I take care to kill the process with ATK. Perhaps this can explain an even better battery life, but Gallery is the main responsible.

Conclusion : If you prefer battery life than wallpapers and cute stuff :

su

mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/st16 /system

cd /system/app

mv Gallery3D.apk Gallery3D.back

mv Gallery3D.odex Gallery3Dodex.back

reboot

and enjoy your SG3 for more time ! :D

Just use Astro or other App to view your pics.

Note : Doing this your last wallpaper will stay and you will not be able to put a personal wallpaper.

Note2: You can try to use the modded Gallery provided by SGS ToolBox but I didn't test it. That's enough for me ! :)

Topic closed !
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] drh123:
Which apk should be installed? SGS Tool from market? (some menu points not working). How can I change my gallery to modded?

thanks
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] thesteganos:
The app Sgs tools was removed from market. You can find it here on xda forum. The last version is on page 37 (i guess). Download, install, go stock apps option and modded galery. Installed here without problems. Good luck!

many thanks!
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] divinesahil:
but did u noticed the graphics were broken i had this issue in froyo jf1 so removed the gallery only
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] thesteganos:
No problem here. Using JPF and cant tell the difference (except for galery icon). Currently using my girlfriend photo as wallpaper...

Did you try Jpf + last sgs tools?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] divinesahil:
Yeah. But gallery not that big issue
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] aeonstorm:
can i use the camera hack in the sgs tools for the galaxy 3??
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] drajax:
ive completely deleted the GALLERY app from the system thru titanium and use QUICKPIC which is way better and fast in loadin + can use preferred pics for wallpapers and yeah the battery is noticeably better than earlier or in any roms. get about one to one and half day with moderate-extensive use, sync and data is always on and occasional usage of GPS too!!! :cool::D
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] chris1486:
My galaxy 3 came with an eclair rom, flashed to froyo JPF. I had a huge battery drain issue on eclair rom but it seems to be fine once I have flashed to froyo, only strange issue is that once the phone is completely charged it drops from 100 to 90% in a matter of 5-6 minutes.......
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] stubborn_d0nkey:
This is normal, and designed. While charging, the phone isn't constantly kept at 100%(like it used to be), the actual percentage varies (charging stops a bit, then when the battery hits a certain level it starts again). This is due to the fact that keeping the battery at 100% for longer periods of times shortens the battery life.

If you sometimes want it to really be 100%, or you just dont mind the shortened battery life google battery bumping (or something like) for more information.

@clarrkov, the phone doesn't work like that (stock). It doesn't at all register 99% it just skips from 100% to 90% (or 90% to 80%) via triggers depending on the battery voltage. I might be mistaken, but I highly doubt it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swatspyder:
http://batteryuniversity.com/index.php/learn/article/charging_lithium_ion_batteries

This means that the batteries are most likely FAULTY or have DEGRADED OVER TIME from using TRICKLE CHARGING on a LITHIUM-ION battery. (See quote below)

Quote below is from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=906144
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] craigbailey1986:
From the quote and thread I came to the conclusion that trickle charging could not damage the battery due to the chips that automatically shut it off. Unless the chip itself is damaged.

That's indeed what the author of the second part was intending to inform everyone.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xHausx:
and the blind lead the blind... why do people listen to those who don't know what they are talking about instead of the experts?

Because that's what you want to hear.

Let me help you see it...

"A continuous trickle charge above 4.05V/cell would causes plating of metallic lithium that could lead to instabilities and compromise safety."

"Overcharge detection voltage is 3.55V..4.4V with 25mV accuracy."

Is 4.05V higher than 4.4V?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CCallahan:
This should hold true however using the batteries internal protection to keep all safe is not a good way to charge. This should be done by the charger and/or software. Battery protection is last resort.

Also, since yet another thread on this has been started, I have to pose another question. Is SBC actually trickle charging the battery or doing a float charge?

From everything I have read on trickle charge the voltage would exceed 4.2v and possibly hit 4.3v for a time. Float charging should take it to 4.2v and then charge at very small rate to keep the battery full. The plating in the battery and damage to the cells, from what I have read, are the result of exceeding 4.3v. With the SBC this doesn't seem to happen and temps stay in range. Ranges are never exceeded, at least not on mine and the other reports I have seen.

Originally I thought the SBC method of charging would damage the battery and switched to a different kernel. But the more I read, the more I am still undecided. We really need a qualified expert to examine this method and make a determination cause this stuff can get complicated.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barnacles10:
Yes it would be, but monitoring battery charts that I have seen I have not ever once seen anyone voltage read that high after 100%. I'm no expert on battery engineering, but sharing what I have come across. Wouldn't we see a lot more toasted batteries if they were hitting 4.4 volts, over protection.

That said, I have been using SBC since it was released. I charge my phone every night for anywhere from 6-9 hours, constant.

My battery has not exploded, there is no fire, my panties are still hanging on my hips, and I've experienced no battery loss.

Like I said though, I'm no expert just sharing the facts I do have.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deathsled:
Charge via USB or AC charger over night?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barnacles10:
AC - <~ (10 char)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NewZJ:
I've been running SBC since he was still testing it and had rough versions, even then he kept it under 4230mV, the highest I've had mine is 4228mV, ive continually charged it for 5 days straight to test long term (AC) with no ill effects, the worst ive had is an episode where the phone wouldn't turn on for a few hours and no charge light when plugged in, I admit it was my fault that caused it because I hadn't cycled the plug after it was plugged in when I rebooted

I still have the same battery, it still lasts just a long, I still use SBC kernels, I feel they are safe, I will report if my battery fails so until then carry a backup if your unsure about using them and enjoy the extra charge
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xHausx:
Over voltage is not the problem since all li-ion batteries have protection from that. It's over saturation that they are saying will damage it.

When it starts running out of lithium to ionize it will begin chemically changing the battery and electro-plating the anode. If it happens too much that anode plating can cause an internal short.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barnacles10:
Battery protection is not full proof on the batteries end though. Just a last resort. The other thread about this has a lot of good info from engineers coming out
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adamantypants:

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] porcupineadvocate:
1: get SuperOneClick from its original thread if you don't already have it. Latest version is 1.5.5, but most versions seem to work fine.

2: Delete the "rageagainstthecage" file (no filename extension).

3: get psneuter.zip from the Xperia X8 Android Development forum thread.

4: Unzip it. Rename "psneuter" to "rageagainstthecage" (no filename extension), and move it to your SuperOneClick folder, to replace the rageagainstthecage file you deleted in step 2.

5: run SuperOneClick. Mine rooted without looping.

6: reboot your phone. Test your shiny new root!

Remember to put your phone in debugging mode, etc. Someone in the X8 thread claims that X10 Mini can be rooted via this method; I don't have a Mini so I don't know for sure. But I've got a Mini Pro and it just worked.

Update:

The file you need in Step 3 is "psneuter", not "psneuter.c". psneuter.c is the source file for psneuter. You can ignore it.

donetus says that if you have problems with Titanium Backup (even after step 6!), uninstall it, reboot, and reinstall Titanium. This appears to have worked for several users.

Amey006 says that s/he had to install drivers from the Sony Ericsson PC Companion for SuperOneClick to move past "waiting for device". I had PC Companion already installed when I did mine, so I don't know whether the process works without PC Companion... if you don't have PC Companion, you can get it here.

Update 03-2011:

The latest version of SuperOneClick now includes psneuter; you no longer need to follow the steps above. Just use SuperOneClick!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] amey2606:
Mine doesnt root. :( I followed all the steps.

Can u please give a detailed procedure.

Thanks. :)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Victor18:
Hi, I just registered to give my thanks.

Now I test it and confirm if it works, but of course thank you very much

Thanks :)

----------------------------------------------------

EXCELLENT! It worked without problems tested in mini Xperia (E10i - E10A)

Thank you very much!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] porcupineadvocate:
What happens when you try :)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] amey2606:
SuperOneClick gets stuck at waiting for device.

I tried the usb debugging enable disable also.....

Still no success. :(

I have an U20i india.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] porcupineadvocate:
Does your phone say that it is connected? Try another USB port?

ADB will say "waiting for device" because SuperOneClick tells it to wait until a device is connected; if it says "waiting for device", ADB isn't seeing your phone at all.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] amey2606:
Yes my phone says it is connected.

The usb debugging and usb flash symbol come up on my status bar.

After the message waiting for device the applicaton (SOC) stops responding.

I changed my usb port too.

Helpppppppppppp....................
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] amey2606:
Which file did u take ????? psneuter or psneuter.c ?????/

Can u please guide me ???

Help. Thanks. :)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] porcupineadvocate:
psneuter, not psneuter.c

I have done almost everything. Restarted my phone and pc but still stuck at waiting for device.

Installed java too and also edited system environment variables.

Still no root. :( :( :(

had root -> SE update last week -> no root

Hi all,

I had rooted my x10 mini pro with the z4root tool before. Last week ran a SE update that unrooted my device and also installed back all the crapware.

The z4 root tool doesn't work no more.. it stays on the 'busy rooting' notice forever.

Then I tried the here mentioned method with SuperOneClick with with replaced pseudo file etc..

The program say it has rooted and the superuser app appears in the drawer. However Titanium and Root explorer apps do not have SU accress..

What can I try? I used superoneclick v. 1.5

cheers

Worked like a charm for my x10 mini. Followed all the steps described above. I also had at first the ''No root access for Titanium Backup'' issue, but with donetus advice everything works as it should be !!!!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] farsight73:
Ok. I'd performed the root procedure from this thread in the first page and worked as it is. Now I'm having superuser installed through the superoneclick process.

1) How to check if my phone really had rooted or otherwise?

2) Now I'm thinking of using app2sd to install app direct to sd. Any proven working method I can follow.

3) Having the superuser icon in the phone. How can I procced with uninstall phone default apps?

4) Thank you for being passion with me here. I'm trying to learn and wanted to take one at a time to make sure everything going smooth.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Rejh:
Works! Thnx!

I was a little worried about updating rooted 2.1 to latest firmware (*.0.24) but after some googling i found the procedure quite simple:

Download SEUS (Sony Ericsson Update Service), follow the steps until at some point it asks if you want to 'update' or 'restore factory something'. Choose 'restore'. Let it update (takes a while). When asked to disconnect and turn on phone, do so.

Follow setup guide (setup time, date, google accounts, etc).

Check firmware version (settings > about phone) it should say ...0.24

Then start following the steps as mentioned in the first post.

Worked like a charm, no looping (SuperOneClick), instant root whoo!

Now let's get the tweaking begin (again...)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] donetus:
there should be a Superuser icon on your phone. you can install either Titanium Backup or Root Explorer and when you open either of those apps, a window will pop-up asking if you want to allow or deny for that program.

you can use either this method (via ext2 partition) or this method (via ext3 partition)

uninstall using Titanium Backup
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] farsight73:
Thanks donetus...

I'd read thru them and got mix feeling about them all. It's 50/50 sucessfull rate and many of them end up phone restarting/looping after the app2sd installation.

It's not proven 100% working even on fresh flashing follow with the step of installing app2sd. I'm not sure if these all has to do with PC condition or the phone itself... or the man who trying to run this scrips.. I will continue to read and checking around.

Many thanks for the inputs...

First let me say that I am VERY new to this, so sorry if I sound like an idiot...

I have downloaded the SuperOneClick and the psneuter (renamed it, and copied in into the SuperOneClick directory).

First of all I have two small "boxes" on the right side when I start the SOC, and it wants me to choose "exploit". I have to click either psneuter or rageagainstthecage...??? I asume I have to pick psneuter there?

And will it work on the mini pro with firmware 2.1 upd. 1 (build 2.1.1.A.0.6).

I am really afraid of doing something wrong here, and screw up the phone.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] porcupineadvocate:
When I wrote the OP, SOC did not include psneuter :) that's why you had to copy it in manually.

Now that it does, and it asks you to pick the exploit, you don't need to copy it. It won't make a difference anyway. Just pick psneuter.

Hope it works!
