[Continuum Android Development] spursrchamps2007:
so odd question in this day of one rooting, but were there every instructions on how to manually root this with adb, I want to root my fiances continuum and personally have never been a fan of one click rooting. My G1 i did it, i dont even remember how we didnt even have clockwork back then. My droid i used the sdk and motorola program, and the tbolt i opted to do it manually. I just like to see whats going on i guess.
[Continuum Android Development] DroidXcon:
i did a really extensive thread on this

http://forum.androidcentral.com/con...416-guide-all-about-rooting-faqs-how-tos.html
[Continuum Android Development] spursrchamps2007:
thanks man appreciate it, I did a google search but all i ever found was the one click methods, and i really havent played around with the fiances continuum at all. I always had a hard enough time keeping up with the og droid threads, and now Tbolt is on my mind but thanks for the info.

A couple of things did you ever unbrick your phone lol

and have there been continuum updates since the ones you mentioned, once again not having it in my possession just making sure.
[Continuum Android Development] DroidXcon:
Nope still phoneless, its hardbricked, the only way to recovery is to flash the booloader directly to the chip which i dont have the equipment to do :(

And i havnt heard anything on the development of the roms but they should be around soon with them
[Continuum Android Development] bubby323:
I am still around, and I have been working on content for the Continuum, just wait, patience is the key to everything here, and please stop bashing the people that are developers around here giving there spare time to the community. There is no reason to pass judgment on how fast someone is working if you aren't the one trying to balance school, friends, and development. /end rant
[Continuum Android Development] imnuts:
Not to say you aren't busy, but I'm working full time, getting ready to move, and working on things for 3 phones, and still getting more done than anyone has really seen from you (unless empty promises count). People wouldn't be so bitter if you would just come out and admit that you took on a project that involved more than you could handle. Instead, you keep coming back here and posting things like this with "I'll have something soon" and it's been the same story for the past 6-7 months.
[Continuum Android Development] nitsuj17:
agreed :cool:

dont take on something that you are not able to see to completion (or at least will attempt to)

your (bubby323) vague promises far out way anything you have every done for this phone

this forum is littered with "placeholder" threads...which is frowned upon at best...full "im going to do this and that"...afaik you've actually developed little or nothing for this phone despite what you may think you have done...and you crippled the continuum community at the knees from the beginning

I got a problem, every time I try downloading a file from the link, all of them are interrupted.... Why?
[Continuum Android Development] insanemonkey:
Can you maybe upload some more resources, other more secure places.
[Continuum Android Development] trailblazer101:
Lol, there are other methods of rooting, other than this one... Go find them in the Development forum... you didn't know, because you haven't been around the whole time, but this guy is gone and not going to help you xP

Sent from my Continuum :)
[Continuum Android Development] insanemonkey:
The thing is I have a galaxy s rooted with simplehoney, the problem is im trying to root my boyfriends phone and z4root didnt work, and I have tried one click root but I cant even get this to work..
[Continuum Android Development] imnuts:
Are you trying to root DL17?
[Continuum Android Development] spleef:
followed the first post exactly and rooted my friends new continuum in about 7 minutes. had no problems worked the first time.... great work much appreciated
[Continuum Android Development] Grimis:
Does this still work to root the Continuum?
[Continuum Android Development] travis2387:
I actually used imnuts tweaked build of the leaked stock rom. Rooting the continuum is very simple.its finding additional things to add to the phone that is maddening.:rolleyes:

Will this also install clockwork mod recovery so I can flash roms?

No. You still need to flash the recovery kernel and have update.zip on your sd card. Both can be found here

I had to install the 'Samsung_Mobile_USB_driver.exe' off the phone's initial USB drive-mapping. Without that the run.bat reported "Phone not connected." I had also tried running the batch file as admin but that didn't help. (I also used a generic micro-USB cord, not the original Samsung cord.)

It says it worked but now what's a good quick test of root/not-root? Maybe I'll try using the free version of Titanium to uninstall one of the Verizon apps.

UPDATE: Confirmed, after installing TB it successfully requested root.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mariuszsz18:
Hello.

I'm trying to write a program in J2ME on WM 6.5 (concrete HTC Leo) to locate the position using internal GPS receiver. The problem is that WM does not support JSR 179 Java package corresponding to the location API. Do you know maybe some way to attach the package to the environment WM (JBlend Java emulator). If not, is there some other way to communicate with the built-in GPS in J2ME?

It may be a simpler way to write a program in C #. Unfortunately, I haven't experience in C #. What library to use to get to the GPS?

Below is a basic code that I use to read longitude and latitude from a GPS receiver. It works for sure with the Nokia 5230, but probably also with other devices based on Symbian, as this is included in the package JSR 179.

import javax.microedition.lcdui.*;
import javax.microedition.midlet.*;
import javax.microedition.location.*;

public class GPS_Speedometer extends MIDlet implements CommandListener {
private Form mMainForm;
private StringItem message;

public GPS_Speedometer() {
message = new StringItem("","");
Retriever ret = new Retriever(this);
ret.start();
mMainForm = new Form("GPS Speedometer");
mMainForm.append(new StringItem(null, "GPS Speedometer!\n"));
mMainForm.append(message);
mMainForm.addCommand(new Command("Exit", Command.EXIT, 0));
mMainForm.setCommandListener(this);
}

public void startApp() {
Display.getDisplay(this).setCurrent(mMainForm);
}

public void pauseApp() {}

public void destroyApp(boolean unconditional) {}

public void commandAction(Command c, Displayable s) {
notifyDestroyed();
}

public void displayString(String string) {
message.setText(string);
}
class Retriever extends Thread {
private GPS_Speedometer midlet;
public Retriever(GPS_Speedometer midlet) {
this.midlet = midlet;
}
public void run() {
try
{
while (true){
checkLocation();
Thread.sleep(5000);
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
ex.printStackTrace();
midlet.displayString(ex.toString());
}
}

public void checkLocation() throws Exception {
String string;
Location location;
LocationProvider location_provider;
Coordinates c;
Criteria cr = new Criteria();
cr.setHorizontalAccuracy(500);
location_provider = LocationProvider.getInstance(cr);
location = location_provider.getLocation(60);
c = location.getQualifiedCoordinates();
if(c != null ) {
double lat = c.getLatitude();
double lon = c.getLongitude();
double alt = c.getAltitude();
string = "\nLatitude: " + lat + "\nLongitude: " + lon + "\nAltitude: " + alt;
} else {
string ="Localization API failed.";
}
midlet.displayString(string);

[Desire HD General] liljom:
I decided to test - on my DHD with Current widget - how much electricity does different hardware parts and softwares use.

I test the battery usage with different brightness settings, wifi and mobile internet download, call, call over bluetooth, music, games, etc. I do it with stock battery, and with LeeDroid 1.4.1 (what is 1.72 based and uses stock kernel) Most tests made in flight mode to make as accurate as possible.

Now, the battery is 1230 mAh what is 1230 mA x 60 minutes = 73800 mAmin. It means if the phone uses 123 mA, than it would last 10 hours (123 mA x 10 h = 1230 mAh). And if the screen uses at least 73 mA, than ( 1230 mAh / 73 mA = 16,85 h ) it won't last more than 16,85 hours with screen on. And it means that only the screen is on on the lowest brightness. So don't expect more than 16,85 hours if you continously browse, play, chat, etc.

Screen:

In flight mode.

I took the lowest number, because the screen uses what it needs, and sometimes some process starts.

brightness---->usage

0%...............73 mA

15%.............76 mA

30%.............92 mA

45%.............107 mA

60%.............125 mA

75%.............149 mA

90%.............172 mA

100%...........191 mA

If nothing else uses much electricity, you can expect 10-15 h screen on, on average brightness.

Music:

In flight mode, screen off.

Normal text - speaker; bold text - headphones; normal text - active speakers

volume------>usage--------->usage---------->usage

0.................49 mA.............52 mA.............50,5 mA

5.................50 mA.............54 mA.............51,5 mA

10...............55 mA.............57 mA.............52,5 mA

15(max)........75 mA.............62 mA...............55 mA

It's enough for about 24 h music with volume on around 10 (in flight mode, screen off).

-Real life test:

Today morning I used my phone for listening music only. It playd music for 6,5 hours and it used 30% battery.

It is 4,6% per hour.

There was no flight mode or other special settings. Of course wifi, bluetooth, etc. were turned off.

It means, that it used 56,8 mA, what is quite good, and a full charge lasts for 21,5 hours with this usage.

Download:

Screen continously on lowest brightness, what uses 73 mA

wifi..............220 mA - 70 mA

3G...............300 mA - 70 mA

GPRS............100 mA - 70 mA

It took 30 sec to download over wifi and 3G, and it downloaded 10% in 6-8 min.

So I recommend wifi. Don't forget it at home!

Navigation:

Maps and 3G and GPRS

It used 350 mA with both settings.

I will test the Locations tomorrow and see if there's a big difference.

Games:

Low brightness.

Need for Speed - Shift ....................... 315 mA

[Desire HD General] ghostofcain:
Either you can't be arsed reading around to get optimum battery usage out of your DHD (wifi off when not in use, battery calibration etc) or you have a hardware fault! My battery easily lasts 15-18 hours of heavy usebetween charges (currently at 78% after 11 hours unplugged albeit with moderate use)
[Desire HD General] gamesmachine:
I'd relay like to know how you have achieved that kind of usage with heavy usage, I can get my DHD to last the day, but its always giving me 15% or worse warnings by 11pm after being unplugged at 9am. I don't use it excessively, bit of browsing, screen on auto, bit of music. The battery life has gotten way better since I got the phone. Does calibration name that much difference, I run the phone basically right the way down every day as it is.

Just be nice to use it as much as id like to (aka not use it and worry about it dying) and still last the day.
[Desire HD General] iopy:
After doing the battery reset, I finaly got through the hole day with heavy use, without worying that my battery runs out. If you havent done it yet, do it! Tried diffrent methods, but the one that worked was the one that HTC recomended. Charge with phone on for 8 houres, unplugg charger, shut down, charge for one houre, unplug, turn on, wait two minutes, shut down and charge for one houre. Remember to disable the fastboot befor shutting down phone.
[Desire HD General] liljom:
Don't tell me!

I finish my morning job at noon (I start 5:30) and it's around 20% left.

I'm thinking of buying an 5000 mAh external battery. Than I would not worry about using as much as I want : )
[Desire HD General] ruchern:
Music seems to be using quite low of power.
[Desire HD General] ghostofcain:
There are numerous posts in these forums where people have doubled their battery life by calibration, I won't claim any such results as I fiddle that much that I can't really pinpoint one factor, so yes it can I believe what is happening is that as the battery improves with charge cycles the dhd is assuming it's capacity remains the same so with calibration you are resetting the max charge level

Can you list down the items under "Android System Process"? I am using my phone roughly the same way you mentioned on your other post but I'm at 8-hours with 80% left. Maybe you have an app doing the damage.
[Desire HD General] tkolev:
Does anyone know if there is an impact when using CWM recovery on the battery calibration procedure? I mean the part when you have to charge the phone while it's off because plugging in the charger puts the phone in recovery mode (and it's not 'off' anymore).

It's the stock HTC group 2.2.1 Rom with no modifications.

How do I list the processes? I'll have a look see, cheers.

Ok I have just found using System app that something is utilizing 100% of the CPU permanently, problem OS I have no idea what yet, but I guess that would be the issue...
[Desire HD General] gamesmachine:
Just restarted the phone, to see if it kills whatever it is hogging the CPU, its at 100% and so fully clocked as well, so if someone can tell me of an app that might tell me detailed.application CPU usage or will help me locate the problem it would be very helpful as I don't want to install a version that doesn't help. The system app I have installed let's you see some detailed information about CPU utilization and it says 24% system and the rest bar a tiny amount is 'user' but its not a application I can see.

Hope that helps, sorry for multiple posts.

Well its been unplugged since 9:45 and its now quarter past 8 and battery is at 52% so a vast improvement, not super heavy use. Bit of browsing etc but not bad. Will keep an eye on it, no idea how some people get over a days heavy use...

Thanks for the help.
[Desire HD General] liljom:
I think nohow

unless they changed the screen to some low power stuff

they can't even get 16 hours, because it can go 16,5 hours on the lowest brightness - what's not enough in daylight - and if they don't use mobile net, gps, and all the apps use very little processor

next time I will test what happens if I play NFS Shift :D

few days ago I tested how heavy can I use it:

download over wifi, music in the background on highest volume from the speaker, highest brightness and NFS Shift

it used around 500 mA, so it would last 2,5 hours this way :D

but it was the heaviest use I could find out
[Desire HD General] gamesmachine:
Yeah playing CPU intensive games and having the screen brightness up kills battery life, my gf was playing spaghetti marshmellows and took no longer than 30mins to go from 40% battery to 10th, although the phone was suffering with the CPU issue it had, but yeah your full on test just shows what I'd call seriously heavy use!! =]

They think there is room for two and agree not to directly compete with one another I'd say
[Nexus S General] onthecouchagain:
What's insane is, Google and Android have gain so much momentum, so much so that I think they could easily overthrow Apple. Yes, we can talk about how Android as an operating system has surpassed iOS in some ways, but to the average user and consumer, to the cultural impact, the word "iPhone" remains king and commands respect. Again, I'm no fan of Apple's philosophy, but there is no denying their success, and more specifically, there's no denying what they get right with their hardware (the touchscreen? Unmatched) and to a lesser extent, what they get right with their software.

Google can change this, not overnight, but they can. It's sad because it doesn't seem like they want to.
[Nexus S General] :
You're missing the idea behind the Nexus line. It's about having a device that's independent of anyone else (in this case the carriers).

The device is meant for people like CM and crew for then to be able to innovate. Think of it as a 20% device.

Google has all the money in the world to create a competing device to the iPhone, do they want to? Absolutely not. The two Nexus devices are an entry point for innovation and an attempt to change the landscape of the current retail paradigm.

I've said it before, the "Pure Android Experience" is barebones, but it's sorta meant to be. It's an invitation to contribution by others.
[Nexus S General] robstunner:
Wow. Very lengthy read. Its just a phone man (IMHO) . It seems as if you are in a constant struggled to justify your purchase of the nexus s. To me the Nexus is already better than the iPhone. Its a personal choice and that's really all that matters is what's good for you. Hardware might be an issue along with some software bugs but even the almighty apple has their own (the alarm clock thing and infamous antennagate).

The nexus, or really any phone you can think of is better than the iPhone. You just need to choose to and enjoy it.
[Nexus S General] onthecouchagain:
Guys, thanks for responding in kind, and without immature heat.

You guys all bring up great points, and I get Google's intention. In many ways, it's fantastic that they are so developer friendly. So perhaps a different "pure Google" line, one that may be more catered to the average or end user? Would that be possible? I think so.

Why not create a line that could capture Apple's "average" user? Why settle for "20%"? And if they are meant to be innovators and to set the example and to shift the market paradigm, have they achieved this? It feels to me if anything, Apple's been making the "shifts." What Google has let loose has been criticized highly by everyone here (developer skins, hardware cutbacks ala the Vibrant line).

There just seems to be so much potential that is untapped - willfully untapped - for Google and Android. While it's admirable they are so privy to appease developers, there's no doubt they aren't worried about the iPhone and Verizon; there's no question that'll slowdown or even stop the growing Android market share. Is it time to change their business philosophy with Android, and if not, at least tweak it?
