[LG Optimus 2x] Robokill:
Recieved my P990 yesterday. But I cannot seem to find the right application to remove to ditch the music bar and power settings from the notification panel.

Already removed the music application etc. (trough titanium backup with root)

Does anyone know what the application is called that shows this. Or is it in the rom and can't it be removed. (which mean I have to put the music app back to make it work and ditch winamp)
[LG Optimus 2x] pollie99:
Open the musicapp and open the settings, there you van disable the player in the notification bar.
[LG Optimus 2x] lovigui:
That only works if you didn't remove of freezed the music app. Unfreeze, deselect the option, the musicbar is gone. Freeze or remove the app, the musicbar is there again. I've tried it many times...
[LG Optimus 2x] djmcnz:
Music bar is managed by the framework.

It is on by default at boot but can be turned off by the Music app. If you remove the Music app it never gets told to "turn off".

Actually, in the framework it appears really easy to totally remove this functionality but will require a patch that I've not worked on yet, and it may require to remove the actual Music app to prevent force closes.

I might have a play with that this weekend.
[LG Optimus 2x] drrogern:
Anything on the second question of topic?

The powersettings
[LG Optimus 2x] djmcnz:
There's no option to turn them off as far as I can tell but I think I can also remove that permanently... I'll look at that too.
[LG Optimus 2x] djmcnz:
Okay, so don't try and do this.

I just bricked my phone. :eek::mad:

I'll need to wait for a mod/update or return it. Back to my Nexus One for the weekend it seems.
[LG Optimus 2x] fen_nyc:
Oh man, really sorry to hear that. :( Short story, what happened? Was there progress & then...?
[LG Optimus 2x] djmcnz:
No problems, have a Nexus One to go back to which is sweet.

Don't (try to) replace framework-res.apk, that's what I learned... :)
[LG Optimus 2x] maedox:
How the hell do you brick a phone by replacing an apk? A brick is what the word suggests; A brick, paperweight etc. Surely you could replace the apk with ADB?
[LG Optimus 2x] djmcnz:
It's a paperweight.

I need a nv flash to replace the system.img.

The framework fails to load and a reset command is issued by the system as soon as it boots. I have adb access for less than 3 seconds before the phone restarts and can not issue a stop command before the reset command.

It's not that uncommon really.
[LG Optimus 2x] maedox:
Can't you issue the adb command and it will wait for the device to boot fully and then stop before the reset? Unless you probably already tried it. Best of luck man!
[LG Optimus 2x] wapz:
I want to know the exact same. Looked around in secret menu but there was no fix for it. Anybody else have any idea? The music app is annoying since it always seems to start up and sit in memory for no reason :(
[LG Optimus 2x] djmcnz:
Read the thread dude... :rolleyes:
[LG Optimus 2x] johnoscott:
Hey djmcnz, were you able to get a solution to this ?
[LG Optimus 2x] djmcnz:
Err, solution to what?

currently running a class 2, and i do notice alot of lag when copy and saving stuff so wanna upgrade, thinking of getting this

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Kingmax-mic...1AIC/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1299847078&sr=8-3

yea yea, i know if t "kingmax" so it will either be crap or amazing (more likely crap)

but my question is, is it worth getting a class 10, would the htc support it, and would it be able to make use of it?

thanks in advance
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] satanduck:
I have a "generic" 32GB class 10 OEM by a local company here in Malaysia, and I must say it is noticeably quicker than my previous class 4 16GB card when used in the phone (a2sd). Transferring files using the laptop on the other hand is wayyyy faster...

Whether its worth the money over a class 6 equivalent i can't say.

Regarding "Kingmax", I have a usb flash disk of theirs and its blazing fast :) Lets hope they are consistent.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kalavere:
I use a decent Samsung 8Gb class six and I get a 10-11Mbps transfer rate, which is more than enough for me. I got the card for something like £12. My old class four used to peak at about ~6Mbs if I remember rightly.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rayiskon:
I have a class 10 kingmax and it's working great,i'm running data2sd on it and no issues at all. But i recall i heard some ppl had some lag issues with class 10 cards (not kingmax in particular).As for kingmax specifically it's guaranteed u'll get 10 Mb/s write speed.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raster77:
Mine is a kingstone 16GB class 10 and it rocks !
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aidfarh:
I have a Kingmax 16GB Class 10 and I get above 10MB/s for both writing and reading when testing using SD Card Speed Test. However, the rom and kernel on your HTC does make a difference, I think, on whether your Desire can fully utilise the Class 10. I don't think it would be worth it to use a Class 10 over a Class 6 if you're using a stock rom, but if you're using a rom with data2ext or data2sd, that uses the SD card extensively, then it'd probably make a difference.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aruzuriel:
Hi, I currently have a rooted Captivate and I'm running stock firmware on my phone. I have several questions if some could help me out that would be great.

Is it is possible to get the official Froyo update if your phone is rooted?

Also if it isn't possible, if I do a factory reset will it unroot my phone?

My friend was the who rooted my phone for me and I don't recall what he used to root it. So IF I can't get the update while rooted and doing a factory reset doesn't remove the root, how can I unroot my phone and do I need to know the specific way my friend rooted it?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] viny2cool:
I dont think, root with do anything against upgrading your phone using Keis mini....formatting or deleting any chache wont unroot your phone...

but to be on safer side

Use this to unroot...just put ur phone on debugging by going to settings>>applications>>development>>uSB debugging on

click on the link here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=739304

download the software as per ur computer (Mac or Windows) Extract it...an plug the phone with computer...and just click unroot...it will do the rest...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
i tested with one of my captivates when 2.2 was released.

i rooted and unlocked the phone

then i updated to 2.2 through kies

no problems at all
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] viny2cool:
how do u unlock stock 2.2
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jervill:
Custom Recovery Removal?

Will unrooting also remove the custom Clockwork Recovery? If not, does anyone know how to remove it? Thanks!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iwontletme:
What do you mean by unlock 2.2? Like a custom Rom?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iwontletme:
When you unroot you should not have the option to go into cwr, seeing how you need root permissions to do so.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
not sure. i havent received a stock 2.2 in my inventory yet. i will try and get one

no. Clockworkrecovery is simply an update.zip on your sdcard and does NOT require root at all, just reboot to recovery and reinstall packages....that will boot you into clockwork

unlock as in have the ability to use any SIM card from other carriers in your phone

wrong. see response above
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] viny2cool:
so u mean i can flash Clockworkrecovery.zip on stock unrooted phone...and i can get clock work recovery to flash custom roms?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
absolutely. clockwork recovery is done without being in the OS....so it does NOT require root access

when you install rom manager on a samsung galaxy s phone, and click on the flash clockwork mod, it puts the update.zip file on the sdcard. once you reboot to regular recovery (3 button), just click reinstall packages, it will reboot back into stock recovery. click reinstall packages again and it will kick you right into clockwork recovery.....has nothing to do with root
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] viny2cool:
that makes sense....so i learned something new again...will do that in my next replacement cappy....
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] notthere:
but if that is the case then why does my phone always boot into clockwork recovery, even after deleting update.zip? i did flashed it exactly as you said - that option in rom manager and then two times from the stock recovery. but now i can't seem to get rid of it any more.

though i have read that it is included in some kernels? and i did flash serendipity, could that be the reason that i can't get into stock recovery?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
thats exactly why...its included with the custom kernel you are running....
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] notthere:
and here i thought recovery was part of the bootloader and something that does not (usually) get replaced. if you could explain how these things are separated (i have my theories but i'd love to know how it actually works ;) ) that would be great, otherwise i'm simply relieved that i am still able to have my phone repaired on warranty if i ever have to :)

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Kailkti:
You can try again, or maybe the kernel is incompatible with your build. or the kernel zip you downloaded is incomplete/corrupt so you need to redownload and try again. You can try search to see if the kernel has install.bat method and try that method instead if CWM fails.
[HD2 General] mxm175:
Have a hd2 with android 2.2 and when I shut it down and plug it in to charge overnite the orange light comes on and it charges. When I unplug it in the morning it wont come on and the light will not go out. I have to remove the battery and start over. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong.
[HD2 General] PoisonWolf:
It sounds like one of the quirks with MAGDLR. You can probably read up on the thread of MAGDLR to find out more. I've had to do this as well.

Just leave it charging while it's turned on, it won't harm your battery.

But if you're turning it off so you won't be disturbed in the morning, then turn on airplane mode or silent mode. :)

[HTC Inspire 4G] jamespaulritter:
thanks for the info. Its a shame that it isn't a simple setting option like it was on the captivate.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Androidude:
If you're rooted, you can flash a new font via Recovery. First, you have to downgrade to Clockwork 2.5.1.3 to flash since the latest Clockwork won't flash fonts. Then just upgrade to the latest after you flash.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yggdrasilly:
I first noticed this when using AR-HD, but I had it upon installing CM7-RC2 as well, so I assume it's not ROM- or Sense-specific.

ANYWAY, what I'm wondering about it this:

[see attachment]

The icon labels are just text. I updated to CM7 today and had the same icon labels, but now... They seem to have reverted to how they were in previous versions, and have a dark grey background behind the text. I've looked through all the various options I could find, and didn't see anything relevant. I'm not sure what I did [other than simply reboot the phone, I'm not sure what else] to cause this, but... yeah. It sounds like a really simple problem, and it's purely esthetic, but I like the transparent labels. I've tried using the default ADWLauncher, as well as LauncherPro, and that doesn't seem to make a difference either.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=984337&page=6

then i wonder can we get some information to know where the problem come from?=> we can fix the battery drain issue on all GB build. Hope it help out devs. cheer :D

Sorry for my bad english
[HD2 Android NAND Development] KrewsialNL:
What drain?

Are there really so many problems with drainage on CM7/GB builds?

2d, 3h, 25m on battery with 60% left.

The first CM7 build i used is the one in my sig. I'm amazed by the lack of problems with this build :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] karendar:
The only drain that's still ongoing is bluetooth on standby drain AFAIK. This DSP issue is not related to the HD2, thus I don't think it's valid to implement. With bluetooth turned off and heavy usage, I get roughly 2 days out of my device also... I really don't think the drain is a big issue. Honestly, the biggest issues is (And it's not much): Robot voice once in a while, some Wifi issues (EAP mostly), Wakeup lag and BT drain on standby.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] songokussm:
the drain is related to the toolchain used to compile our kernals and roms?). I however can do easily 3 days with out charging on android, using the same setup as KrewsialNL
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ZetaiZetsubou:
Actually

Actually, i get pretty horrible battery life across all builds...

it could be that I have a v1 TMOUS hd2 though... something is weird with it. I always get random energy spikes (even with sync off)

can't get more than 14-18 hours...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] WorldWide60:
My battery drainage is fine using the Typhoon rom. I think some people are expecting a little too much out of their batteries.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] pr0x2:
It's only 1230mah if it was 1500mah it would have been way better.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Crin:
How on EARTH are you getting that long out of your battery?

Are you using the phone at all?

I've used loads of different builds and never come even close to half that battery life, in fact no more than about 20hours MAX with light usage.

I am using Juice Defender to disable my WiFi and Data when the phone is not in use too.

Any tips?:eek:
[HD2 Android NAND Development] jdlorinser:
I have run all the latest GB builds and I also get this weird spike (around 70mA to 100mA) usually when I leave the phone overnight (not charging) and this drains my battery down to almost empty by morning. This is with bluetooth off and wifi on. No apps installed on the phone.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] robrob777:
mmmm That CM7 build has great battery life but yours is beyond reality... are you sure you haven't connect the phone in those 2 days?

Mine says "4D 10h 1m 50s on battery" and has more than 50% left but it has 3 green spikes (in battery use, I connected 3 times but didnt charge to 100%)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Life Engineer:
Well I was going to say exactly EXACTLY the same thing! Except that i didn't like Juice Defender :rolleyes:

Is battery THAT GOOD?!?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ZetaiZetsubou:
Battery

well yes, it's certainly feasible...

it's just that MY hd2 specifically gets random spikes in energy usage.... I'm not sure why, been trying to resolve it for a while.

I don't really get those spikes in WM, only when I go someplace that doesn't have signal... it will spike up initially and then settle down (dutty's rom)

However, with these android roms.... i get random spikes of increased current around 100-200ma while the phone is in sleep. Bluetooth off, sync off, wifi off etc.

also, when the phone is in use... it is not uncommon to have current of 400+ consumption... hitting 500+ when web browsing...

I never got this high in windows mobile...generally around 400 when streaming youtube in wm. I'm wondering if it is an android thing...

edit:

in a perfect world, our battery consumption should stay around 4ma constantly... Which we know that isn't always the case because we have data syncing and signal strength changing...but to give you an idea....

if we have a 1230mah battery... dividing that by the current draw (4ma) gives us a standby time of ~307.5h....

that's ~12.8 days :eek:

however, with my current usage... say, i'm getting about 14 hours out of my battery... that's like if i constantly had a current draw of ~68ma...

Taking a look of my usage charts.... if we say the phone is only in use for 6 hours, and the rest is in standby for 10h at 4ma...

the 6 hours would have a power consumption of ~300ma the whole time....

which i think is kinda excessive....

meh. i don't know.

perhaps i'll upload my usage charts later... lately on this new rom, i've been getting only 8 hours of battery :/

but it could be because i've been playing around with it too much :D
[HD2 Android NAND Development] tageeboy:
I am on a TMO US HD2 first generation and I am doing good if I can get 6 hrs of battery with the stock battery and normal usage. No wifi, 3/4g, no GPS, and auto screen dim. If I am using the net or something like angry birds I am down to 2-3 hrs max. I have tried underclocking and still not getting a full 8 hrs of life. Would love to find a solid rom that lasts 12 hrs or more. Ordered an extended battery so maybe that will help a bit.

Define what's good and what bad with the standard battery? I have been getting on average about 10-15 hours and that's with doing alot of texting, web surfing, mp3 player and xda lol, and crunchyroll (streaming shows) usually over 3g but sometimes over 4g.

Thanks for the tip. I have a second HD2 that I test builds on and I was actually in the process of installing the ROM you mentioned last night :) I am excited that this may be the rom to drop on my daily driver :) I have noticed that non GB roms (2.2) seem to have much stronger WIFI signal strength so I am hopeful this GB version will have solid WIFI signal too.

[HD2 Android NAND Development] g30rg10u:
battery drain on SD builds may vary from SD card used.

I can confirm that from my experience, i was not able to use the phone on the second day (total up time 1d + 12h TOP) when i was on SD builds

BUT.. while on NAND (no A2SD no Data2SD)

I can confirm that i can now use the phone for 2d + some hours, depending on use.

All battery info apps told me that battery life is Good (not excellent, not very good).
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Revhead:
Made the switch. Battery life as good if not better than with WM and SD build. I feel the biggest improvement came when I installed setCPU.

I have been trying for an hour now and there is no way to get my Vega to boot to recovery. I can only see the screen turning on but nothing happens. I have tried sooo many times for it to boot to recovery but no luck.

Happened after I flashed modaco r9 over because I had battery drain while in suspend mode.
[Vega General] Bennji:
It can't be bricked, you need to get it into flash mode and install the stock ROM (plug it in, hold the back button for two seconds then press the power button without taking your finger off the back button).

Flash the stock ROM then install MCR again (whenever this has happened to me before I install Clockwork Mod after stock then you can restore to a backup you've made previously without having to install anything else)
[Vega General] Bennji:
If you are struggling to get into flash mode the following works: take out the power cable and press back, plug the power cable in while you are still holding the back button before you try to get into flash mode.

Seriously, it sounds bizarre but it's worked for me in the past.

You can first try to reboot your DHD and see if that helps. Else the ultimate option is to try formatting sdcard. You can always backup your data and place them as they are...

reboot doesnt work, so it seems that i need to format the sd card and put the files back there.

or should i first try to delete the Location files? btw: where can i find them?

so there's no problem when formatting it and putting files back on it again? no problems with apps or so?
