[HTC Inspire 4G] laxwillsch:
This is something I am very interested in also. I am assuming the wifi tethering that ATT is talking about it the MobileAP that is already present on damn near every 2.2 rom. I heard that they are going to have a setting that will let ATT control whether your INSPIRE 4g will be able to use this feature. I am on the unlimited plan now with my craptivate and was just thinking about buying it off contract and dropping my sim in. does anyone think that this might be an issue?

My only worry is that ATT tries to screw you in almost every way possible if they think they can make more money off you. Technically we shouldn't have to pay for tethering IMHO we are already paying for the data why should it matter how or on what device we use it on??
[HTC Inspire 4G] footbal9584:
I agree, although it seems like once they get it rooted we will be able to put our own tethering app on it and avoid having to pay for a ridiculous plan. I used WMWiFi Router on my incite and HTC's tethering on the windows mobile HD2 and now the WiFi Hotspot app on Android on the HD2 all on ATT with an unlimited data plan without tethering.

i am having the same problem with my nexus s, it's the first device that does that...why ? can someone explain ? thanks
[Android Apps and Games] garyelmes:
I've seen this problem discussed here before, and apparently fixed in current versions, but:

The "set on boot" setting on SetCPU shows no sign of working for me.

What I want is for profiles to be automatically enabled on boot - which I assume is part of what "set on boot" is supposed to do. True?

But when I reboot, the "set on boot" settings on both "main" and "advanced" have been unset, and my profiles are not enabled.

I've tried reinstalling both SetCPU and Superuser, and clearing the data for both apps. Still the same problem.

I'm not using the SetCPU widget.

Phone is SGS GT-I9000

Firmware is 2.2.1 I9000XXJPY with Voodoo 5.3

Kernel is 2.6.32.9 curio #1877

SetCPU is 2.1.0

Superuser is v2.3.6.1

su is v2.3.1-ef

Any suggestions?

Thanks.
[Captivate General] Miami_Son:
I bought my Captivate on 12/13. For the first 3 weeks I had it I had almost no problems with it (other than the usual GPS issues). About 3 weeks ago I rooted (1-click Root), installed the 1-click decripple, SGS Tools, Titanium Backup and OCLF and removed some of the bloatware, but stayed with the stock ROM. Got some noticeable improvement as far as Quadrant benchmarks, but about a week after I did all that the phone started freaking out. I had my first of 2 unexplained shutdowns. Simple things, like receiving calls, would lock the phone up. Then I started having force closes when I tried to use a speed dial. The past week the battery has been doing strange things like losing 60% charge over 4-5 hours without using the phone for anything. It will somehow go back to normal and work fine for 4-5 days. Today, the force closes and lockups started anew. Again, an incoming call locked the device. I didn't even know it for 3 hours when I turned it on and the clock was over 3 hours behind and the screen wouldn't take any input beyond unlocking. Reboot and later I tried to speed dial and back into force close loop. Reboot...still does it. Tried to bring up my contacts and get a black screen, eventually leading to getting kicked back to the Home screen. Obviously, the contacts issue is related to the speed dial issue, which is probably related to the incoming call issue since they all are tied together. But what could be the problem? I am so frustrated I'm ready to hurl this thing at a wall. I uninstalled OCLF and am considering an Odin flash to stock. Seems like the phone is really flaky when it has a full of >90% charge. Any clues?
[Captivate General] mcord11758:
I would start with olcf. The lag fix it used its not recommended and may be causing data corruption
[Captivate General] cavsoldier19d:
I have said it plenty of times before, and I will continue to preach....I recommend flashing back to stock and master clear to troubleshoot. That will give you assurance that you will start on a fresh clean slate, as far as bugs/data corruption/bad configurations. Obviously you will want to back up all of your data first. After you flash back and master clear, don't do anything else to it other than installing regular apps from the market to see how it runs. If it continues to act up, then you know you have hardware issues. If it fixes it, then you know you had something going on with your config or data corruption.
[Captivate General] kdwolf85:
Whats your build number? If it is one of the 1007 builds then you may be able to get a warranty exchange for the reboots.
[Captivate General] TommyZee:
Getting noticeable improvement as far as Quadrant benchmarks go doesn't always = better :confused:
[Captivate General] Miami_Son:
Here's the really odd thing, pulling the battery and rebooting seems to clear the issue for a few days. A plain reboot won't. I alternate between 2 batteries, both OEM. I've never cleared the battery stats. Could it be an issue with one or both batteries? It always seems to happen shortly after taking the phone off the charger.
[Captivate General] cavsoldier19d:
If you haven't already, you can try recalibrating your battery. But the route I would take is flashing back to stock using odin one click. It doesn't take very long and it will rule out alot of things
[Captivate General] d054:

before you throw it aganist the wall let me know i will pick it up and give you another phone to throw
[Captivate General] Mac11700:
Yup...I agree...and I would start with a 100% clean slate..and not use any data from any previous time..Flash a good kernel..a good modem..apply the gps fix of your choice..and enjoy..Trying to use parts of a stock rom..is self defeating...wither or not you get uber high benchmarks or not...You may want to stay with some type of stock build..but you IMHO your better off going with a I9000 rom/kernel/modem...Anything that is even close to stock AT&T is junk as far as I know.

[Captivate General] Miami_Son:
As soon as I have a few hours to spend redoing all my data, apps and info, I think that's what I'll do. I already downloaded the 1-click Odin OEM ROM. After flashing Odin do I have to redo the JH7 OTA update?
[Captivate General] Pirateghost:
you dont need a few hours. just titanium backup....and about 20 minutes for the whole thing.
[Captivate General] Miami_Son:
What if there's something wrong with an app I installed that is causing the problem? Wouldn't reinstalling my apps with TB just bring that problem back?
[Captivate General] cavsoldier19d:
It really doesn't even take a few hours to back up and restore. I have an 8gb external sd card full of music, photos and videos and over 200 apps stored internally and it takes me 10-15 mins if that using titanium backup pro for apps . You don't have to restore jh7 but it might be a good idea to do so if that's what your phone had out of the box.
[Captivate General] cavsoldier19d:
Typically restoring normal apps you get from the market will not cause you grief. But what can cause you grief is backing up and restoring mods, system data, configuration data etc. The goal is to create a totally unhacked unmodded totally stock experience to isolate and possibly identify what could be causing problems
[Captivate General] Pirateghost:
and OCLF.... dont forget that OCLF causes PAIN!
[Captivate General] Miami_Son:
I need my phone tomorrow for work, so I'll settle for just uninstalling OCLF for now. Maybe Friday or Saturday I can sit down and "go back." I don't remember if the phone had JH7 or if I updated it OTA when I first got it, but that's what it has been running almost since day 1. Is there an Odin for JH7?
[Captivate General] cavsoldier19d:
No there isn't but heres a thread on how to install it...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=790080&page=20

You will need to download jh7_ota.zip.

Basically, after you flash back to stock, you have to install clockworkmod recovery, place the zip file on your internal memory, boot into clockworkmod recovery and choose to install the zip file. I actually did this the other day to see if it actually works, because my phone came with jh7 out of the box.
[Captivate General] cavsoldier19d:
PS...if you kept the box your phone came with, it will show near the barcodes if your phone came with JH7 or JF6
[Captivate General] Miami_Son:
Box says JF6, so I must have upgraded it. Don't remember doing it, though. What's wrong with just using the Odin for JF6 and letting the phone do the OTA for JH7?

[G2 and Desire Z General] Mnemoch:
Probably at least once a day I will pickup my phone and it is off...any way to diagnose what is killing it? Running stock Sense with 1.72 update (rooted however). No overclocking but SetCpu is running but think it happened before when I wasn't using. Thanks for any help.
[G2 and Desire Z General] hexapus:
Is it just off, or is it the "sleep of death", where you have to pull the battery to bring it back? I had the latter problem, and it was solved by installing one of the pershoot kernels from ROM Manager, oddly enough. Someone replied to a similar question from me with a "Try using pershoot, works well for me", and I was going to write it off as a rather unhelpful response, since he didn't elaborate at all...but wouldn't ya know it. Installed it for the hell of it, and cleared up the issues immediately. Didn't chance anything else (overclocking, settings, etc...). Worth a shot!
[G2 and Desire Z General] Mnemoch:
Its actually 'off'. Hitting the power button restarts it just fine, but it takes a long time to boot as if I HAD pulled the battery (not the fast boot you get when you tell it to turn off and then turn it back on).

I saw the threads on sleep of death but my symptoms didn't seem to fit.

I have noticed though that I would get pictures missing from my album and a reboot or a dismount and remount of my sd card would get them to turn back up. So I have bought a new card and so far so good on that front, and also no more shutdowns...so thinking maybe it was the memory card...which makes sense as it wasn't happening to anyone else!

Is there a program that logs what processes where running? I was thinking that I would see what tried to run before it shut off - but hopefully not necessary now!

Thanks for the reply...
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamal717:
Hey so i heard that thoose 2634.7 roms are really good on the battery thing is idk how i can use that with any rom considering they all require 2805 now can i get some assistance? or just a kernel good with battery:D:D
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jianC:
2708 you mean? If you run gingerbread, included kernel is just fine.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamal717:
nope i dont mean 2708 i mean a .7 kernel people were saying how it greatly increases the battery life i got the download of it but its unsupported on everyrom i tried because i flash the rom then that and itll hang on the g1 screen i need to find a way to get it to work
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pl4sMa:
I believe the .7 kernel you meant is the 2.6.34.7. There's nothing wrong with calling it as the .7 kernel.

However, to clarify; The battery life issue is due to a known bug in the 2.6.35 onwards kernel version when charging via a USB instead of AC power charger.

So, now the key is finding a 2.6.34.7 kernel, that will match your needs. And that depends on your radio. If you're using the new extra 14MB radio thingy (regardless 2708 or the newer 2825) then you will need a 2.6.34.7 that is ported for compatibility with the radio.

Ofc you can always flash a random 2.6.34.7 and see whether it goes along well with your radio. If not, just re-flash your old kernel.

My suggestion, look at the following thread;

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=831139

The kernel provided is a 2708 compatible kernel with a 2.6.34.7 version release. Follow the instruction carefully though. There's always a risk of bricking ur device.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamal717:
are you talking about this ezBiffTestKernel20101106-2708_S.zip if so i have tried that and the battery life is bad and if its just due to the usb thing even if i charge it to 100 % unplug and reboot the phone i still only get an hour or 2 of moderate use on my phone and i mean all i do is use google voice to text like every 10 mins i have location off display all the way down auto sync off etc i have the default battery also
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pl4sMa:
So how old is this battery of yours?

Have U checked to confirm if there's anything running in background consistently.

It might not be a kernel related.

*****SOLVED******

By recommendation of another member, I cleared data from 'contacts Storage' and 'People' and now its working perfectly!

I just flashed the newest Sprint Lovers ROM, and my contacts wont sync. I get the "Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly" message. This has been for the last 5 hours. Maybe sync really is down? My email syncs fine, all my data works (market updates, internet) and have tried on WiFi also. I have also updated my profile succesfully.

Is it down for anyone else or any ideas?

edit: I have also tried unchecking the sync box in the accounts and sync menu, rebooting, and re-checking the box. No worky.

edit2: Well now it synced with no error, however, it shows last sync time as 1230pm today (6 1/2 hours ago when I flashed) and contacts didnt load. This is very bizzare.

Does anyone have a fix or work around for this other than getting new batteries? LOL

I fell for the same batteries from China on Ebay. The battery when installed on my phone would not charge in the phone. I could charge the battery in the standalone wall charger that came with the pair of batteries from Ebay (China). I eventually put on my puppy dog eyes and went to my US Cellular retail store and asked the sales rep that I know if they could do a battery swap for me. They were happy to swap my china battery out for a Samsung genuine one. Great customer support!

adb shell

su

stop

mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system

busybox cp /sdcard/done_app/* /system/app/

busybox cp /sdcard/done_frame/* /system/framework/

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amcolian:
Unfortunately it cannot because your device will shutdown on changing the files and it won't be able to boot. The reason why the above commands work is that they freeze your phone in current state while the files are copied and deleted.

However as some adb commands do not run on android 2.2, you need busybox.
