[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ppirate:
With .6, my battery is draining very fast. For example at night, I go into airplane mode and in 7 hours the battery goes from 100% to 65%. This used to be from 100% to 95% in 7 hours.

Needless to say that the phone now don't holds a day on normal usage, even when I don't use 3G. Before the update the phone used to last 3 days on a full charge!

What is up with the phone? I've checked active services and all, but could not find something unusable.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] gunsluts:
Odd, I thought mine had actually got better under .6.

I would loose approx 1% of battery per hour overnight, same after .6, although I doin't use airplane mode.

I unplugged my mini off charge around 9pm Wednesday, it's been used for calls, browsing, music playback and a few photos, as of now, 8am on Friday, the battery is at 50%

Admitedly it had a extra few minute on charge inbetween while I pulled a few photos off via usb, but no more than 5 minutes at the most.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] tpratka:
Well, i don`t know if it is because of .6 update or launcher pro home screen, but my battery drains also very fast. It loses almost 35% overnight (3g, wifi off and phone in silent mode).
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] gunsluts:
I don't use LP myself, Zeam all the way for me, but other than that, set up sounds similar, 3g/wifi off and in silent(not airplane) mode.

In the hour or so since my last post, the phone has been in my pocket on the way to work and it's only this second dropped to 49%
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nozerogravity:
Simply get some system info app, I recommend Advanced Task Manager, tho not for killing processes at start, but for showing winch ones runs in background (all apps tab). Why? Some processes, like Gmail Disc Space, or other (3) google apps can be killed with no consequences, and not only that, but Quick Search Window / Download Manager / Checking Service / Preferences etc. When You start some system app, like Market, they get back running. So You can easily save battery at night, or wherever You want.

For more advanced users I recommend getting autostarts app, and turn off processes that are loading when phone is in standby, or screen is turned off - most of them are totally useless... No kidding. Quick tip: ppirate said that he switch the airplane mode on for the night, but thats only one thing. The clue is to switch off any updates on widgets, or apps (autostarts). Sometimes they trying to update even if theres no connection, and that consumes battery.

Last recommendation - turn back to .24, or .504. I really don't understand why people updated...

I run my mini @ 600-600mhz all the time, deleted all non essential apps, switch off autostarts for 3rd party apps, and some system apps, and I'm doing stuff that I mentioned above - battery is in excelent shape, and stands for two days of intensive use, or four days standby + calls/sms.

And some screenshots:
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] tpratka:
Can you explain, wich system apps are safe to kill at startup?

I downloaded advanced task manager, and in idle it shows only three apps running:

go weather, juice defender (IMO doesn`t do anything, what it supposed to do), battery solo widget. All my updates are done manually.

I guess that apps that are safe for me to kill at start are: Google talk, since i`m not using it, SE Sync, timescape (might as well uninstall it, don`t use also).

And apps that i`m not sure of are: download manager, diagnostics tools and update service.

Finally, how can i downgrade to .24. Does it mean that i have wipe my phone and install custom rom or generic SE .24 rom?

For info, my phone is rooted and JIT enabled.

EDIT: So far I took my phone from wall charger approx 9am and for now (6pm) i have made few phone calls, wifi for about 1 hour and played abduction:) for like 15 min and my battery shows 57%, so i think by tomorrow morning my battery is dead:S
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] F3niX:
Even my phone lasts a day max... After initial 2.1 update it was 2-3 days... After that 1 day max.. With 3g,Wifi,Data off... I think its due to low signal strength in area....
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] tpratka:
Exactly, before update my phone reached even 4 days if not used often, but since the update, max is 1,5 days if i leave it on the table and don`t use it:)

EDIT: I think i finally solved my battery issue. I downloaded Watchdog Lite from the market to see wich widget or app takes a lot of resources at the background. For my surprise, my weather app (GO weather) took about 25% of cpu resources when running in background. Uninstalled it, installed another weather app and by now i fully charged my phone and since then (about three hours ago) it has gone from 100% to 98%. Before it was about 15% of loss.

So my suggestion is to download Watchdog and see if you have some programs that for some reasons take a lot of resources with the new update.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ppirate:
I really could not find the problem? Last weekend I took the trouble of doing a complete reinstall. Lo and behold! Still on the same charge after three days!

What is the default snooze interval time for alarm?

How to change the snooze interval time?
[XPERIA X2 General] jithsc:
Hi,

The default snooze interval is 5 minutes, ie it will be repeated at the interval of 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 15 minutes then the next snooze is set it to 1 day..

But I think, there is no option for customizing the snooze interval..

[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] creator2456:
When I pushed the files to CM7 I completely forgot about checking permissions when it didn't work.

I do however prefer the newest Swype from the beta program since it has speech recognition. Your information should help me porting my Blackout Swype themes over to the MT4G with creating a proper flashable zip that will work with any ROM, and for that I thank you.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] Marine6680:
No problem, I was thinking of creating a flashable zip for my cousin, he doesn't like to mess around with this stuff... but he lives on the computer, go figure. I just need the signing app, actually its not needed with the new recoveries that allow unsigned zips to be flashed, but it would be nice.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] Jacezo:
I cant get the swype from iced glacier onto cm7. I follow all the steps perfectly and can select the swype keyboard but when I try to type nothing happens except a flashing blue border around the keyboard. Its pretty annoying.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] Marine6680:
Thats odd, I used this to get it on to CM7 and it works fine. Where did you source the files from? Permissions are rw-r-r?
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] daewond3r:
Thanks so much for this! I don't use the voice feature and I always hit it on accident, so I've been missing the stock version. I also didn't care for the blue all that much.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] A23E:
I am new to this. Could I use this technic for the others stock apps (calendar, clock/weather widgets...)? Thanks!
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] TrueBlue_Drew:
No, the apps you are speaking of are HTC apps. They are integrated into the HTC Sense framework.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] Marine6680:
Moving default apps between ROMs that have custom UIs, like sense, can be problematic. Many default apps have been setup to work with the custom UI and framework only.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] Jacezo:
I took the files from an iced glacier rom and fixed the permissions. I'm on cm7 rc1 with the dumguq smartass kernel.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] Marine6680:
All I can think to do is try again. It may be the kernel as well.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] bobbymokie:

[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] Marine6680:

[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] atifsh:
hav'nt tried your way, but what i did was got those 2 files form new mytouch 2.3.4 (swype 3.7) and copied it to panache stock custom then cooked and flashed, but now it says wrong licence.....
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] Marine6680:
Probably has a device check, and the ROM you are using is giving the wrong device.

I believe the panache is the Canadian version, so it may be that the licence is regional as well.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] valve timing:
License issues for me.on virtuous unity 1.29 and fauxkernel
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] eliasadrian:
Same, I wonder if it's something to do with our build.prop?
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] valve timing:
Sadness i want swype guess ill go.back to beta
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] eliasadrian:
I figured it out for us (those of us on Virtuous Unity)!!! Haha, I'm so stoked. K, so I changed my build.prop of ro.product.brand to =tmobile, I think it's originally htc_wwe or something (This was after extracting my system backup for stock froyo and comparing the differences). Then uninstalled swype, rebooted, and then followed the terminal steps listed in the OP. Good luck.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] Teo032:
I can confirm that this works
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] beezie916:
Does the build.prop change seem to affect anything else?
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] Teo032:
Haven't seen any changes. Will update if I see any problems. You can always use the backup file if anything goes wrong
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] valve timing:
Doesn't work for me
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] blahblah1227:
+1 worked for me too
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] Teo032:
Did you make sure to remove any previous installed swype before and then reboot?

I reboot every time I make a change so.

Uninstall swype reboot.

Change build.prop. Power off, pull battery then turn back on (read somewhere that it settles in better than a normal reboot)

Push swype and lib file and change each permissions using either methods then reboot. works 100% for vu 1.29.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] JDMDC2:
Worked perfect on my royal ginger rom.sticky please
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] valve timing:
I'll give it another shot
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] Marine6680:
Sounds like the Swype version being used is licences to T-mobile devices. I would bet that the market app will switch to having the "t-mobile" button instead of the "my apps" on the main screen. Though you may have to update or reinstall the market app to affect the change.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] valve timing:
This still isnt working im trying to.us a swype.apk from the tmobile update gingerbread rom. Still getting the license issue
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] Marine6680:
What ROM are you using?
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] valve timing:
Vu 1.29 faux kernel i tried swype from 2.3.4.from tmous please post your swype.apk and lib.swype.co
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] Teo032:
How are you pushing the files?

Remember if you're using adb to push, you would have to type out the entire libswypecore.3.7.85.27287.so

because of xda rules i can't post the files, it can be pulled from the leak roms (there might posted files for it in those threads too)
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] valve timing:
Okay well im using root explorer

i have the right files it seems . Idk whats wrong . Also those terminal commands arent working for me. Lol im not noob i can read and follow steps something is just hokey
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] beezie916:
It would help to know what command is not working and what it says....I did this with ADB and no problem...

use root explorer to edit build.prop...uninstall and then push the new swype files....

ADB is a bit easier i think....
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] valve timing:
Sycc does nothing reboot command says not permitted
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] Marine6680:
Sounds like the commands are not built into the ROM. Seems odd definitely.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] Teo032:
sync usually appears to do nothing but it actually does i think.. thats what i read, if it really did nothing it would say some invalid command thing lol.

BUT anyways

You don't really need to run the terminal emulators commands. I never do it and it works fine.

Hmm... using root explorer should simply be copy and paste so you should have the right files... These are from the latest leak right the 3.7 versions.. the same one that can be found in this rom http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1178288&page=6 (check the bottom of the page thats when I started to figure out how to install it myself)

and you fixed the permissions.. for both files... i can't think of anything else that might be wrong besides

1. the swype and libswypecore files don't match or incomplete files

2. permissions aren't set correctly

3. beta swype may still be installed? (might need to manually remove files via root explorer)

4. build.prop wasn't correctly changed from "htc_wwe" to "tmobile" (i think it's case sensitive)

Now swype is installed but limited soo it should narrow down to the libswypecore or the build.prop file.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] valve timing:
Here is my build.prop not everything but the part i thought would matter let me know if,anything looks wrong
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] Teo032:
I can't exactly see it but i think it shows you have "Tmobile" change it to "tmobile"

lower case t
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] Marine6680:
Yeah, these things are case sensitive.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] valve timing:
Yay I fixed it

[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] BRKotucs:
I just installed swype 3.7 on Virtuous Unity 1.29.0 and I can confirm that it works.

this is what I did to make it work.

1. Download this rom http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1169712 and extract it .

2. Open extracted folder and navigate to System / app / and copy the Swype_3.7.apk to the root of your sdcard.

3. Open extracted folder and navigate to System / lib / and copy the libSwypeCore.3.7.85.27287.so to the root of your sdcard.

4. Open Root Explorer / System / Build.prop and edit "ro.product.brand=htc_wwe" to "ro.product.brand=tmobile" (Dont forget to Mount R/W to do this). Reboot.

5. Open Root Explorer / sdcard / and copy both files (Swype_3.7.apk and libSwypeCore.3.7.85.27287.so) to System Folder. "Don't put them into the app/ lib folder yet" and also Dont forget to Mount R/W to do this).

6. Long Press your Swype_3.7.apk / Select Permissions / Changes to rw-r--r--

7. Long Press your libSwypeCore.3.7.85.27287.so / Select Permissions / Changes to rw-r--r--

8.Move file ( Swype_3.7.apk )to /system/app

9.Move file ( libSwypeCore.3.7.85.27287.so ) to System / lib

10. Reboot

Enjoy!!!
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] Teo032:
yeah this was already discussed about for the last 3 pages. And your instructions are a bit wrong. You want to push the lib file to the lib folder, not app. And from my experience you should change the permissions within the designated folder (mainly lib) because I experimented around and changed it in systems folder before moving them into their designated folder and it gave me license problem, but I just change the permissions again and it worked.

But thanks anyways for the detail report, you should edit it a bit.

Btw you should state in #4 where htc_wwe is located like ro.build etc brand something

Hello, I'm new to the android rooting scene and I can't figure out how to get the swype files. I downgraded to the froyo version in order to root my my touch 4g using the PD15IMG.zip file I found on different sites. I unzip that and see the system.img file, but I can't get it open to get anything out of it for the life of me. I've tried 7zip, winrar, daemon tools and poweriso and none of them will let me get the files inside. I also downloaded the gingerbread version of the same file and I have the same problem. So, how do I get the swype files? any help would be much appreciated as I love the custom roms, but really like swype.

Old thread... but glad it helped.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] DutchArjo:
hi,

although i do not have a htc but a samsung, the tutorial should also apply for any phone with swype in stock, right?

i downloaded the beste available stock rom from sammobile.com. I extracted the needed files (swype.apk and the libswypecore file). Also i've checked the build.prop file from this stock rom and compared it to the build.prop from my custom rom. both ro.product.brand lines are identical.

Next, I have done everything as mentioned. After reboot, swype is shown in my available keyboards. when i select it, nothing happens and my phone automatically switches back to android keyboard.

When i look in swype settings, the field where you normally can select the desired language is grey and i'm not able to select anything. I thought i needed a separate dictionary file but i found that these should be inside the .apk file.

I've checked it and all the language files are there. So, what could be the reason swype isn't working?

edit: now, when I select swype as input methode i get this message: "the swype package you installed is configured for another device and will operate with limited functionality."

could it be that swype checks another line in build.prop to see if the device is correct?

as i pointed out: i used a s5830 stock rom because I have a s5830.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] Marine6680:
Its possible... Its been a couple years since I wrote this, so things may have changed since then on how swipe works.

You might try checking the build.prop and changing the one in the ROM to the one from the stock ROM you downloaded. Make a backup of the build.prop in your device currently, and change it for the one from the stock ROM. Be careful with this, as if there are any changes in the build.prop done by the Dev that are important for functionality, so you may loose that function. Or you could check the file line by line, and change anything that looks like it could affect Swype... Remember to make a backup copy of the build.prop before doing this.

Remember to get Swype from the stock factory ROM for the device you are using, or if you are using a custom ROM, you need to get Swype from the source the ROM builder used. For example, I have a Galaxy S4 for Verizon, and Verizon makes Samsung remove some features from the OS for phones sold on Verizon, things like Blocking Mode are unavailable in a stock S4 on Verizon... So the ROM makers have been using the International version of the S4 software in their custom ROMs to varying degrees. So I may need to use a version of Swype from the International stock to get it to work. (though most ROMs available to me already have Swype... also, I do not use it, so I have not had need to install it on my phone)

If you are using a custom ROM, you may ask the Dev if they can add Swype in the ROM on the next update... or if the device never had Swype, and the Dev is unwilling, you may need to jump through hoops and figure out a modified version of the instructions in this thread, like the ones I wrote above.

In simple terms how do you flash to a european firmware, please either a clear step by step for n00bs or a video for n00bs lol. Please and thanks. Althought after researching a little if you installed the european firmware long enough to get the phone functionality to work couldnt you use google voice to port your number. I know youd have two numbers for a little bit, but if you went with the TMobile unlimited data plan for 50 a month and GV uses data you could restore the stock modern.bin file for 3g and just use GV for texting and phone calls? :confused:
