[Epic 4G General] rubbersouljmk:
I am new to the epic, only have had about 2 weeks, and I bought an extended battery 3300 MAh, and was trying to watch a video on my epic last night. It was all good and fine until my battery life went to 15%..from that point the video player closed and every time I just hit the movie I was trying to play, it would say low battery and wouldn'e even try to open a player. I tried rebooting to see if that worked and it did not. I still had like 4-5hours after that screen came up until my battery actually died. So what can I do to stop this from happening. I still have the original rom (froyo 2.1), and am still looking for the froyo version I want from xda. PLEASE HELP ME...THIS IS VERY FRUSTRATING!!!! THANKS FOR ANY BIT OF INFO YOU CAN SEND MY WAY!!!!! :confused:
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
As far as I know no one has found a way to stop this nonsense from happening. Not sure if developers have even tried though.

Its not just video either. Camera and music also have these limitations.
[Epic 4G General] running_the_dream:
I thought the phone automatically shuts off too once you get down to 10%. It's of course a built feature designed to keep the battery from getting completely drained. That can severely shorten the lifespan of lithium ion batteries.you probably don't want to deactivate that feature
[Epic 4G General] A_Flying_Fox:
I definitely wanna activate that feature. Its annoying if I'm watching a movie and it cuts off cuz its at 15 percent. 15 percent takes a long time to use. The hero first had this limitation when it came out but its since been removed.

I want the power to run my battery down to 0 how ever I want
[Epic 4G General] blackdragon79:
My phone don't have that problem. That's weird for y'all to be having that problem
[Epic 4G General] Unknown Zone:
I can recall someone had a patch/kernel that disable the 15% cutoff limit....just need to search for the thread.
[Epic 4G General] Toast95135:
If you use an aftermarket video player or camera it won't do that. I use MvideoPlayer and Vignette.
[Epic 4G General] Arion02:
I think the baked snack rom/kernel disables it... Could be wrong. I thought I read it in the description a while back when I flashed it.
[Epic 4G General] snowmanwithahat:
Isn't BakedSnack only 2.1 though? DI18?
[Epic 4G General] Tortel1210:
There are no cutom kernels for froyo, because there is no source
[Epic 4G General] Arion02:
Yeah you guys are right about 2.2 and no kernels... I failed to read what was in parentheses in the op. I just read "stock rom". Anyway, I went back and read baked snack features and it only removes the limitation of not being able to take pics or video below a certain battery percentage. Hope you find a work around for this limitation!

Running Froyo 2.2.

So basically for the last 2 months, facebook contact sync has had the same annoying error.

"

Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly.

"

But the sync picture with the red/white exclamation mark is

only

by the Contacts. Maybe once every 100 syncs work.

I've tried removing the account and then re-adding it (and still get the same problem). I do have the Official Facebook app installed, along with using LauncherPro.

Any ideas? Also, when I sync Google, it works.

Thanks!

Tony.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mi04se1:
I get the same error, but for some reason, all my contacts get added to the contact app.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iRide113:
Are you running Froyo (with a root)?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FrozenComa:
I had a rom a few months ago that would not sync my Facebook contacts at all. Did it have this syncing problem when you first put your Froyo rom on or did it start later?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iRide113:
It happened after. I think it had to happen after, because I had to do a hard reset to install Froyo, and it was syncing well for a few months (or weeks).
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FrozenComa:
It could be one of many problems then. Do you have any other problems besides facebook sync? Market or anything else?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iRide113:
I don't think so. Just that and my GPS is slightly off
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FrozenComa:
Are you running official Rogers 2.2 or a rom?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iRide113:
I'm using the one released on here, considering I'm in the US and it hasn't officially been released yet
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FrozenComa:
I'd suggest a different rom then.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geokilla:
I can get Facebook contacts loaded into the Contacts on the Captivate, but then I have to join them one by one and the pictures get compressed.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iRide113:
Which ROM would you suggest then?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fresh448:
Can someone tell me how to install them on my vibrant. I don't know where to put the file. It's rooted with Bio v1.2
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xriderx66:
what do you mean?

What kind of .zip?

is it flashable?

If not, extract it on PC or androidzip on phone, and use the wallpapers?

im not sure what kind of .zip your talking about.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fresh448:
The honeycomb wallpapers were in the forums about a week ago. I have the file on my phone but I don't know how to install. I tried doing it from recovery but it gets stuck on the installation screen.,
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thegreatcity:
Don't do that. Just open the zip on your computer and see if you can pull the images out.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmcghee1973:
What he said^^^ I just make a folder on my internal sd called backgrounds and put my wallpapers in them.. I think if you long press on a zip file on your sd it will also extract it to a folder called extracted on your phone.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] id_will:
Just unzip and set the image as wallpaper.

What is the best combination for a Rom and kernel for quadrant? Right now im using bionix v + dead horse (Eugenes kernel) and i only get around 1500
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treyvaporizer:
Quadrant doesnt matter at all. I am on bionix v and its a perfect daily driver. Its fast and has excellent battery life. THE ONLY THING QUADRANT IS GOOD FOR IS COMPARING NUMBERS. And besides 1500 is pretty good.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] duboi97:
Well I just wanna show off to people who have hd2 that they will never be as good as native android phones and 1500 is average 1700 is max for me :P
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treyvaporizer:
Well if you really want some high scores, then odin back to stock (backup your stuff with titanium first and put it on your desktop so you can return it later) then find ryanza's one click lag fix. It converts your file system to ext2 and does something to boost your score to around 2300. The i/o part of the test goes by instantly. And for more added score i guess you could overclock it. But i wouldnt recommend it. 2300 is high enough LOL :P

EDIT: if you don't want stock then find a rom that is compatible with ext2 system file conversion.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shovelhead83:
Delete the app. Let them play with your phone for a minute.

[Nook Color General] cwcmind:
What happened to the honeybunches thread? What was the reason it was deleted??
[Nook Color General] Decad3nce:
OP requested that his thread be deleted.
[Nook Color General] cwcmind:
Huh okay, thanks.
[Nook Color General] 66cat389:
Was a reason given? Is he working on a newer version? I donated money and although I understand that a donation is giving someone money without precondition, an explanation would be the polite thing to do.
[Nook Color General] khaytsus:
You donated money to someone for a small tweak on the Honeycomb SDK port that deeper-blue had created... Your loss.
[Nook Color General] 66cat389:
Not really, I appreciated his work. And since I cannot contribute to the community with expertise, I choose to do so with money since I am generally a fan of the work put out by others on this board. Trust me, if blue had a donate link I would be one of the first to kick in some cash. But he hasn't and despite being a "minor tweak" the build was still quite good.
[Nook Color General] MДЯCЦSДИT:
I DENIED ALL DONATIONS... NO MONEY WAS TAKEN. I didnt want any legal issues with google. I saw in deepers q&a about the market.
[Nook Color General] MДЯCЦSДИT:
Just a personal thing... Can you please remove my name from your post? Thanks.
[Nook Color General] MДЯCЦSДИT:
sorry guys
[Nook Color General] RileyGrant:
All is good Marcusant! Your work was/is very much appreciated and I look forward to seeing what you do with this in the future. Maybe an EMMC build in coordination with DB? hehe
[Nook Color General] 66cat389:
Not a problem, I apologize if I stepped on your privacy.
[Nook Color General] mazook98:
He deleted his post because it was becoming quite apparent that he was blatantly copying someone else's work. Taking a "picture" (diskimage) of a working version of someone else's work with a couple of apks added to it does not make it "your custom rom". He had no business giving advice on technicalities of Honeycomb that he had no understanding of, and it's no wonder that Blue wouldn't give this kid the time of day and "work together" on future builds...I'm really surprised no one called him on it earlier than now...
[Nook Color General] TyRonathon:
I do believe the reason for the OP deleting was merely the fact that you aren't meant to include GApps (Market, Gmail, Maps etc..) inside ROMS or devices that aren't licensed by Google. That's why you don't see cheap Android tablets with the Android Market on - Google hasn't licensed them too. Same applies to ROMS.
[Nook Color General] RileyGrant:
Actually Marcusant wasn't just adding "a few apks." He tweaked DB's release to make an image that would fit a 2gb card for those that didn't have access to bigger cards.
[Nook Color General] mazook98:
Yep--makes it even shadier-- Here is his math, in base form:

(Deep Blue's build) + (Google's Gapps) + (LauncherPro) = ("MY CUSTOM ROM" WOOT?)

It was wrong on every level.
[Nook Color General] mazook98:
Zeroing out space and using a partition tool still leaves you with someone elses exact work underneath. Not an excuse. Fine (IMO) to post as a image of DB's build, but NOT as 'my custom rom'. Anyone else agree?
[Nook Color General] Novarider:
Do you think that Google would sue the guy over a rom on his nook color he was using for personal use? I don't. I could see it if he was selling the rom or selling nooks he rooted and put the market on. If Google were going to sue it probably would have started a long time ago with all of the devices that have been rooted and the market was put on. Or it would have started when the nc was first rooted and the market was put on it.

Why would they sue? As long as people are using it like they should then google is just MAKING MORE MONEY by us having the market on another device to buy apps with.

Marcusant did google ask you to take your thread down?
[Nook Color General] MДЯCЦSДИT:
Just to clarify, deeper-blue was fine with my work...
[Nook Color General] naplesbill:
By your assessment, Deep Blue is just copying someone else's work too (i.e. Google). I thought the point of this forum is for people to find ways of making our devices work better, or making it easier to make our devices work better?

The only real issue, that I can see here, is that he included the Market. He also made several tweaks (tweaks Deep Blue did not make), including raising the DPI and making it fit on a 2GB card.

This is not supposed to be a site about egos or who's copying who. He gave credit to Deep Blue and this is all that is necessary. He never claimed to have created the whole thing himself.
[Nook Color General] mazook98:
Really???? Maybe you should rethink that statement. There is no record whatsoever of deeperblue ever responding to one of your posts, or questions needing help from him on Xda. Having to communicate with someone that is 'fine with your work' by posting "DEEPER BLUE PLEEEASE READ" messages in their thread should be all the evidence you need. You might want to actually talk to him before making these claims.

Sent from my PC36100
[Nook Color General] Decad3nce:
Thread Closed. Next person who "flames" gets a nice vacation.

The OP requested that his thread be closed because it contained gapps and he feared that some action might be taken by google.

If deeper-blue felt that the OP was kanging, then he should've reported it so. Since the thread doesn't exist anymore, there's no point in arguing over it.

How can I put hot restart into the cm7 reboot menu? All of my sense roms have it but cm7 doesn't..... Any help?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sminker:
I just downloaded the Hot Reboot program from the market.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cuppeerr:
Yeah I could do that, its just much easier to have it in the reboot menu
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrWicked1:
Or use reboot widget from the market it will do it, just put the widget on your home screen.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cuppeerr:
That's a full reboot, I just want a hot reboot, theres nothing that's free.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrWicked1:
Your right I forgot I paid for it has hot boot in it
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cuppeerr:
Yeahhh haha I just want hot reboot in my reboot menu like my sense roms
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sminker:
I use that Hot Reboot App for all my roms even the ones that already have it in the reboot menu. Its faster to access and has 4 different reboot options when you open it up.

Just put a link to the app on your homescreen.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cuppeerr:
is it free?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neoelectrex:
Wow, I know I do not post here a lot but the app is $.72 man... come on....

Most of these devs don't even ask for anything, and those of them that do, should get it if it is a decent product. Is paying $.72 REALLY that hard to do considering the amount of time the dev put into the app to make peoples lives just that much easier?

Sorry for the rant.

Edit: And Just now I'm realizing this post is graveyard material, go me.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FroyoShark:
Yeah I know this is a bit late, but I found a free app that allows you to hot reboot. It's called ROM Toolbox.

anyone know any better way to delete my partitions and recreate them to be the same as stock setup?

now i flashed a nookie froyo rom over everything. it boots fine. but im trying to install an overclock kernel and the instructions say that im supposed to replace uImage with that in /boot but my rom does not have a /boot partition.

can anyone help me out?

[EVO Shift 4G General] herbthehammer:
I know they are two different things that one relies on the other to work. I understand that rom devs are usually different people than those working on the recovery program.
[EVO Shift 4G General] koolkid09:
You gotta start somewhere...
[EVO Shift 4G General] Compusmurf:
2.5.x.x recovery in the root thread works enough that you can flash roms with no issues.
[EVO Shift 4G General] herbthehammer:
I don't know if there's a new version of recovery yet. What I meant by flakiness was the issue that some were having, including me, that the phone would always boot into recovery if it was off and you were trying to charge it.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Compusmurf:
That's a known issue with ALL clockwork recoveries and there probably will NEVER be a fix.
[EVO Shift 4G General] herbthehammer:
This may be the case but since the evo and epic used cwm recovery, the shift is the first phone I've experienced this snafu with. Maybe I was just lucky in the past. And yeah, I'm impatient for it to be fixed. I gotta chill out.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Compusmurf:
Why are you charging with the phone powered off anyway?
[EVO Shift 4G General] RyteSyde:
because bump charging makes unicorn for reals :D
[EVO Shift 4G General] cloverdale:
It charges about 10 times quicker.
[EVO Shift 4G General] herbthehammer:
Definitely
[EVO Shift 4G General] adamr240:
So is this recovery causing all the issues that are happening after root? Like the heating up/lag/low quadrant scores?

I'd like to root just to be able to remove things and use wireless tether, but honestly the phone works fine for me right now.
[EVO Shift 4G General] veidt_industries:
Recovery

You don't actually need to flash the CWM 3.0 recovery. I too like to charge my phone while it's turned off, and after reading about that bug, I just set up my phone to fastboot boot the CWM from preludedrew. What that does is it loads the new custom recovery, but without over-writing the original. From there you can follow the directions to install the custom ROM.

I'm running Evervolv, and so far it seems to be pretty great. Of course you don't get 4G and the camera is buggy still, but you can take pictures and the wifi actually goes faster now.
[EVO Shift 4G General] 144saint:
Then what's the best rom and recovery out for the shift?
[EVO Shift 4G General] alew182:
Quick question guys, since were on the topic of recovery idk if this is the correct "recovery" or not, I came from the evo so its not much different for me but when I did a nandroid backup for my evo I would select backup/restore and select backup google proprietary system files or something like that, I don't get that option with my shift, I just get backup, is that the same?
[EVO Shift 4G General] oxeneers:
This is not the case with my EVO 4G. I can charge the phone when it's off without the recovery booting up. This is the case with CWM 3.0/2.6.X.X
[EVO Shift 4G General] 144saint:
Where can I download the recovery for the shift?

I've tried every android browser out there and safari on the ipad, and none are as fast, feature packed or polished as Xscope 6

click here to try it http://x-labs.net/?page_id=18
[Adam Themes and Apps] joshua.lyon:
XScope is pretty awesome. Dolphin (HD / Mini) are up there with it too though. I had some troubles with certain Flash sites and didn't like the way XScope let you zoom out as far as you wanted. I prefer the browser to stop zooming out at a certain point.

I also really liked how Dolphin HD had the side-bar features which work really well on a tablet. You can just drag the page to the right and the bookmark bar will show up letting you quickly jump to a new page. More than anything, I'm really looking forward to Honeycomb's new browser... it sounds like it should have most of the great features I'm looking for in a browser and it looks good (XScope and Dolphin don't really blend in well visually).
[Adam Themes and Apps] number01pup:
This is what I was wondering. Whether any current browser looks like it belongs on a device that size.

There's one thing in xscope you should try that second to none. Text copying. Just long press the menu key will in xscope and tap select text. I wish android did this natively.

Hello,

I was taking a nandroid backup through Clockworkmod recovery and after its completion I plugged in the usb cable.

My pc could recognise the device was plugged but I couldn't browse the sd card as usual.

So I rebooted the phone and booted it with vol down+power. Tried there to connect the usb so as to copy the nandroid backup but still nothing, so I selected Fastboot and then reboot.

Now the phone keeps on rebooting before showing the "quietly brilliant" logo.. :S

What is wrong?

[Fascinate General] soba49:
http://www.dlna.org/industry/why_dlna/key_components/media_format/

Try packing compatible audio in the MP4 with your encoder. Try MP3 or AAC first (inside the MP4, obviously not as separate files). If nothing else works there is always stereo PCM. You may have to experiment with bitrate and frequency, but you should be fine with default settings.
