We have 2.2, it doesn't matter if it's OTA or tethered. It's already been said on T-Mo's site they are developing an OSX version of Mini Kies. As for the Linux users (I used to run it exclusively), you're hacktastic enough to be able to use a VM to run the Windows version.

The people here, the ones who root and mod, will know what to do to upgrade. The non-tech people will either learn, have someone do it for them, or just wait till the OTA that is coming in a few weeks.

Me, I'm gonna wait for the devs to cook up a rom using the source code,that's prerooted. I personally have a headache and don't have the patience to update through kies and then search for ways to root. I'm a ***** like that. :'(

[Vibrant General] synaesthetic:
1. I've been happy since I flashed Axura 2.2.6.

2. That is exactly what I'm waiting for. I could care less about stock official Froyo. I want the source code in the hands of sombionix, supercurio, justanothercrowd and the rest of the devs so we can see some OC/UV kernels for Froyo! (sorry eugene fans, but his stuff always blows up my phone :D )
[Vibrant General] MicBeast:
I agree

I agree with flashing a ROM over stock

I would like to thank all the developers over here at XDA!

Because of XDA Developers I have a running device

Without this forum I wouldn't know how to flash my phone,

seriously!

without this forum I wouldn't have a great ROM (Nero 5 "H" Flying Animations)

with the best, most stable additions, (SBG 2.4, Transparent Facebook)

Well I've read the results of the recent "OTA lol :D update"

and I don't like kies personally, so I decided to pass

I just flashed the KA7 modem, and I'm good

Nero 5 Voodoo "H" with Flying Animations SBG 2.4

SBG 2.4 - Black on Black Market - Iron Man Boot

I like the look of Axura but I love the Gingerbread look of Nero

Kies Mini Update

So I just finished with it and managed to snag the tar.md5 file before kies deleted it. It looked like an Odin dump so I tried flashing it via Odin 1.7 and it seems to work. No complaints so far.
[Vibrant General] nacron:
Htc never communicated with the mytouch3g customers about firmware updates. It sat at 1.6 before the 2.2 update longer than the vibrant sat at 2.1. I will still purchase samsung if the hardware is good and the firmware stable and it's rootable.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tinpanalley:
I'm so confused.

Just got the mytouch 4g. Charged it, as it said in the book, until it was fully charged. Used it all day until it was drained and then recharged it this evening. Just looked at it now. In 5 hours since unplugging, it's down to 56%. 56!

So weird. And I barely use any apps. I made a conscious effort to keep it as clean as possible.

Help!
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] STHNS:
Hmmm alot of data is missing from your end but this is what I suggest as basic. Make your blacklight dim so it does not use alot of energy as this is the highest cause of battery drainage during actual awake time. Then disable any unwanted useless services from boot trust me there are lot and also disable them if they restarts. You can also use SetCPU taking you have OC based kernel then make profile to scale your mCPU based on max/avg/idle.

Best advice for you is don't charge the battery, get it low as 1% then do full charge and check your actual usage cycle the uptime/awake time later. Which rom are you using? OCing? if you don't need it just underclock it no need to OC just for the hell of it.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brianphanz0r:

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] STHNS:

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brianphanz0r:
when i leave my 4G/3G/Edge idle, it burns my batteries like mad

unless he has the screen on all day, i dont see how 5 hours would burn 50% of his batteries. even without killing all his task
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] STHNS:
No I was asking you to clarify as you mean to say completely disable data when you are idle? well you can do that if you have nothing that requires access but most folks have email and other elements that does require it. But yes it would improve it but that depends on him and how/what he has setup.

Whats your uptime/awake time with full bat cycle?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdviper:
JuiceDefender does that, it disables the mobile data connection when the screen is off, but you can let some apps bypass that have it on every 15minutes or so to have it sync.

I've been playing around with it, and it does improve battery life, but it's not for me though, cause it does take a good 3-8 seconds until you get the "H" or your data connection back.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] STHNS:
LOL I was curious and searched "Juice" my 8.1gb paid app archive of market that I just cURLed few days ago and came across UltimateJuice LOL so I guess ill run it. I have so many stuff... only if I could install it and test it but its not possible as its close to 11k apps.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] option94:
Theres so much that can effect the batteries on these phones. Weak signal, apps running in the background, coutless things.

These are "super phones". I keepo a data cable in my pocket, and a car charger in the car at all times. My phone basically lives on the charger. Its easier that way. I know, not the answer you were looking for, but if you want your phone to do everything it was capable of then thats something you may have to deal with. You could turn all sync off and make sure nothing is ever doing anything in the background, but then whats the point in haing such an amazing phone?

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tinpanalley:
Thanks, I didn't think one existed. I just wish these cooks would put up some screenshots sometimes.

Quick unrelated question... is there any way I can JUST root for access to the phone and then delete the things I don't want with Titanium by myself. I really DO like the phone the way it is and I just wanna lose some of the network connected crap like the T-Mo faves, etc.

Thanks
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XfooYen:
Yes. You can just root and use the stock rom if you like. Use Titanium to freeze unwanted apps rather than uninstalling them. That way, if something starts behaving strangely, you can unfreeze apps to troubleshoot. Uninstalling system apps is permanent and Titanium doesn't backup system apks, only data. I haven't used it, but I believe Iced glacier is what you're looking for. The unthemed version is basically stock mt4g without bloat with some performance tweaks.

Swyped on my rooted MyTouch4G
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tinpanalley:
Thanks! You know, the thing is that with rooting, from my WinMo days when it was a really risky process, I developed this fear of rom flashing just because of the risk of screwing up. I know Android is much easier to flash with a ROM but it still freaks me out a bit and if it's not COMPLETELY necessary, as it was on the 3g slide I just had, I try not to do it. But I'll check out the unthemed Ice Glacier. I just wish I could see some screen shots or get an explained list of what mods are done to the stock rom on it.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoffott:
The other thing you can do , if you like the stock ROM but just want to get rid of the bloatware, is to temp root using Visionary+, then use terminal, and disable the apps you don't want. I forgot where i saw it, but that's what I did and it works great. Also, if you ever want it back, it's not erased, just go back and enable it by typing "enable" instead of "disable" in the instructions below.

In Terminal Emulator (with root):

$"su" <enter>

#"pm list packages" <enter>

#"pm disable exact.NameOFApp.IncludingCase.SensitivityAnd.Periods" <enter>

#

You're done; it should be removed from your app drawer and everything. It will still show up in the package list, so if you want to enable it again, just pick it out of the list and follow the same directions replacing "disable" with "enable."
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tinpanalley:
I don't get the concept of "temp rooting" vs real or full rooting. Does that mean it unroots if you reboot? What's the temp part?

That's it. Temp root goes away on reboot.

Seems that it might be safer and more efficient to just root, fully. Anyone know the best way to do that on a 4g?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilchip85:

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tinpanalley:
Are any of those performance tweaks dangerous, do you know? There's not really much info on that thread. I've heard overclocking and stuff can cause problems.

Also, still looking for "THE" way to perm root and to unroot back before I start, but I'll probably use Ice Glacier Unthemed.

My battery was poor for the first week or so. After that it was actually quite good. I've had a few days where the battery would drain 50% or so with the screen off in just a few hours. I found that it was usually an app keeping the processor awake or the bluetooth trying to maintain a connection with my work computer. I tend to keep bluetooth off now. I have push exchange setup running everyday and about 50 apps installed. I keep track of my battery status through the settings, but otherwise I don't intervene. Keep an eye on the settings to see what is draining your battery. Then decide whether action is required.

if u ever get rooted, make sure u load your 1st rom when your batts fully charged and before you load it wipe the battery stats, that will be an option under advanced in clockwork recovery if u get that far, then deplete the battery completely before recharging than after that you will see a legitimate battery stat

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] frifox:
I get ~500 new tracks per month and I heavily rely on Windows Media Player's 5-star rating system to keep track of the ones I liked/disliked. I'm looking for an app that has the ability to read AND add/edit the rating, aka ID3's "RATING WMP" tag, of mp3's that I will manually load onto sdcard. I've tried many different music apps but none fit the requirements... any suggestions?

Thanks! ;)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] frifox:
I guess nobody knows and I'll have to figure this out myself... as always :D
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] frifox:
ok, made some progress... found a way to seamlessly "sync" music libraries:

set up samba (windows) share on pc

used Mount Manager to mount that share on Evo as /sdcard/share/audio

reload media, all mp3s now show up in HTC Music as if they were physically on sdcard

ps: if i'm not on WiFi, just VPN into my home linux box and everything shows up as "local" :P

now all that's left is to find something that would write the ratings back into mp3s... i found this iSyncr app that does it but there are some quirks that needs to be worked out before its usable. will report back once that is done :D
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] frifox:
wifi sync was a hassle and iSyncr froze my phone for 5 mins each time i remounted sdcard, and also wifi sync is much slower than traditional usb sync anyways so here's what i worked out instead:

set Songbird to monitor my "New songs" for mp3's

set Songbird to auto-sync music as soon sdcard is mounted to pc

unmount/eject and use PlayerPro to listed & rate music

once done, in PlayerPro, export song stats to xml (Settings > Media library >Export music stats > Songbird)

use Songbird's "RatingFile" addon to import ratings from that xml

since in Songbird i set 'songbird.metadata.ratings.enableWriting" to "true", it writes the new ratings to mp3's ID3 tag "RATING" field

use Mp3Tag macro to batch-move RATING field value to RATING WMP

viola... my new ratings now show up in WMP :D

long and tedious process but so far that's the only one where i managed to successfully sync new ratings back to WMP :cool:

PS: doubleTwist can do two-way ratings syncing WAAAAY easier with their AirSync addong but i haven't found a way to move the new ratings from doubleTwist to WMP... any ideas?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] SolusCado:
Did you ever come up with a clean solution to this problem? I have so much new incoming music all the time that it is a real pain to have to sit in front of my primary PC rating music all the time; it would be so nice if I could sync it to my phone or tablet, rate music as I drive, and then sync the ratings back to my computer...
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] frifox:
get PlayerPro... that dev implemented the ability to read/write ratings to actual mp3 files. both WMP and MediaMonkey id3 rating system. then, to make sure the ratings are same on both your phone and your computer, install microsoft's SyncToy and set up a two-way folder sync.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] SolusCado:
Thanks; I actually came across PlayerPro in the same search that returned your thread. :) The only problem I see is that I use WMP's autoplaylists to only sync 4 or 5 star rated items to my device. If I am using SyncToy to synchronize folders, that makes the whole dynamic rating thing kind of useless, doesn't it?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] frifox:
hmm, in my case i didn't have a need for dynamic playlists and PlayerPro fit the bill perfectly, so yeah, i'm not sure how you'd deal with syncing back the ratings from cell to pc... i manage my library using files and folders so i guess i lucked out here :D
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] SolusCado:
:) I guess so. I have WMP setup to auto sort music into a folder structure that maps to Artist > Album > [Track Number] [Song Title], and then I only synchronize the songs I've rated 4 stars or higher. That way when it syncs to my car (using my phone as a storage drive), I can browse the file system by Artist, Album, etc., and I only have the songs I like synced up.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] jextyc:
Great

Sick bro, love it.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] octavia:
Thanks for asking the question, I was looking for the same thing. Maybe I can help you out too. I don't know about the sync tool you use but MediaMonkey can sync songs based on dynamic playlists too. So you can create a playlist based on ratings (or more) and MM will sync it automatically. However you have to have the paid version but IMO it's worth the price.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] SolusCado:
Does MediaMonkey add anything I don't already get with WMP?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] frifox:
many things... with folder-sync being one of them :)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Peran:
EDIT: Tl;DR

PlayerPro can modify and read the Windows Media Player star rating.

I've verified that tracks with less than 4 stars are removed from my device. However, I expected to see more removals. I'll continue to update here

I had an issue with PlayerPro, the 'stars' (rating) disappeared from the top of the screen. I solved this by tapping the track picture in the center of the screen. The star rating on top of the screen reappears after that.

---

Awesome threat.. Just got a Nokia 9, first Android phone

Same issue.

I manage my music with auto playlist and star rating since I had a HTC Wizard and Windows XP, I think :P

Anyway, PlayerPro seem the way to go.

The problem I now have is that I can't seem to change the star rating anymore, in PlayerPro.

This: https://www.aplayerpro.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=3305

.. seem to be hopeful but alas. I'll continue the quest on a later day and update here.
