I have wiped everything did everything you are supposed to do and im running 180MA that isn't right for a mod which nearly all are saying 3-5 is normal and 13 is high, the rom is PNK Killer Llama V2 my radio is 26.04.02.13 M2 not M2 SF, what am i doing wrong :/
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Locster126:
Is that 180ma with screen off?.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -shadeless-:
3-5 is normal when the screen is off.

i bet you are measuring with screen turned on ;)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samuel2706:
Well i waited for an hour then checked again checking at half an hour and it was at 72 so i though oh thats good. then i checked at an hour bang 142 :|
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samuel2706:
I reckon it's an app because it's now at 5MA with everything turned off apart from network. im in a 2g only area btw but it's usual to get full bar signal so it's odd ;)

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tojema:
I had the same problem with the ROM Cyanogen CM7. :(

Consumption of the battery far too high.

You should know that the HTC rom with sense use a proprietary driver and less greedy.

For other's rom's, hacking in the kernel.

I going on a rom with sense, Leedroid 2.3.4, I' have never eaten my battery so little.

For Rom's nosense, I wait that problems are solved ;)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samuel2706:

Not really mate, check out my battery thread i created from personal experience, if not then try reflashing the rom NANDROID first! also full wipe before you do flash, most battery problems and problems are caused by people not full wiping :)

where can i get this nandroid rom? isn't nandroid just for backup?

edit: i do allways full wipe..

even on leedroid 2.2.2 i have about 180-350 mA :( maybe my phone is the problem?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samuel2706:
nah i mean nandroid backup, post me your current widget log, ill have a look.

Also do this: goto phone/dialer then dial in *#*#4636#*#* then check the battery history from here you should get to a menu which allows you to view certain usage, look at all the usage and tell me what is first second and third on all of them, these are possibly your problems, also which kernel you using? his latest 2.2.8? leedroid has a fantastic battery life usually so this is unusual, i doubt it's your phone ;)

i also forgot to add in, delete your HTC SENSE account, it's useless and eats cpu for breakfast, which means drain on battery is higher, and when i say eats it i mean 100% usage sometimes, this could be your problem, it was mine :L

also what radio are you using?

Task managers are useless they eat battery froyo/gingerbread has built in managers which close apps not being used or something like that
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] allajunaki:
Froyo's Task manager dont really kill apps unless necessary. I believe Gingerbread will have a more aggressive memory manager.

During day to day use, my phone memory goes from 384MB free to ~100MB free (as I load and close multiple apps).

Only annoyance is browser, who will remain in the last opened page. So I set the homepage as "about:blank", and I simply go to Homepage before coming out browser. That way I can be sure that no JavaScript / Flash BS runs in background (It shouldn't anyway. But I do it for "peace of mind" factor :cool: )

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajm_:
I just purchased a new vibrant 4g which is currently on its way. My question is will I be able to root it with the same process as the 3g vibrant and will I be able to use Masters/Team Whiskey roms on them can anyone please explain. I never post on xda so hopefully this is where this type of question belongs.....
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oka1:
No they are different enough they will not just flash, but converting Say a trigger or other Rom to the 4g will be totally doable, just depends on whether the devs actually get that phone. My guess not many will.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajm_:
thanks for the response that really sucks I know I could have done the modification for the ffc on my own I really needed the 4g tethering so that was the only reason I gave up my vibrant. Looks at the specs the phones are pretty much exactly the same I see most devs taking the vibrant 4g and porting them over to the vibrant 3g I was hope I was going to be able to use some of the roms which sucks. I may just keep the vibrant 3g and not sell it not... thats dissappointing news thanks for the info

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bl4ckpheniX:
Your one to talk....
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bl4ckpheniX:
Now to give you an answer: I have both phones. The 4g will have custom ROM's infact there are already 3 of them made by team whiskey. The problem is not having CWM working on our 4g phones yet. However, someone over at TW will be looking into getting this going this weekend. Once that is finished we will be capable of running custom ROM's

One good thing that bruce lee doesn't understand is that all these new PORTS the vibrant have been getting will require less modifying to work on the 4G.. Much smoother.

Bruce Lee sorry to kinda kick ya there, but how about not being a **** when your asking some noobish questions in your thread yourself. Everyone learns by asking questions.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bruce lee roy:
Omg! just joshing. Although it is funny how all these people sooo anxious to hop on the latest and greatest where so sure 4g was going to be the natural progression of development. And despite many saying a ride on 4g wagon was illogical since theres no real advantage, an unlucky few still jumped.

Hey look, stop lying to these people; exclusive development for the 4g will likely never pick up. Even on tw own forum, was a guy advised to return the 4g because of its grim future. Every two years your carrier gives you the option to "upgrade" to a better phone not "side-step" to an equally comparable phone.

And just to be clear, I'm not trying to poke fun at the questioner. The above post is correct to state that no question is dumb are irrelevant and I live by this philosophy, as my previous post prove, and I am not ashamed of that. This was just a knee jerk reaction to some who i consider delusional in thinking 4g is so much more superior. Just thinking out loud :p

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oka1:
Lovemysgs is correct, there are a couple- 3, And without CWM flashing them is not as easy as most are used to, So, depending on your understanding of how to mod the phone and how to use some of the other tools like adb SDK and Odin, I usually tell the less skilled or the less familiar to wait until the beta becomes a normal release.

Also, when they do mod these roms it WILL be much easier like lovemysgs said. The only real problem is alot of devs will have moved on to other phones since this is not really a new phone just an upgrade to the Vibrant. So I would guess there will be less support.

Good question BTW
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drewdude007:
The roms wont work but u can still change a few things on it. The Linda sounds posted in the theme section works. You just have to move the files with root explorer. Also the transition animations done through metaphorph work. And you can change the touchwiz launcher with sgs tools. And you can change the shutdown but not the bootup animations.
[Atrix 4G General] gdanko:
I froze a bunch of apps using Titanium Backup. They're not showing up in the defrost batch list. Even after factory resetting my phone they're not in the apps list but I still seem them in /system/app

For example:

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 79497 Feb 5 01:21 SoundRecorder.apk

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 27496 Feb 5 01:21 SoundRecorder.odex

But SoundRecorder doesn't show up in my app list. If I try to "run" it from something like Super Manager I am told it's not installed.

Any way to fix this?
[HD2 General] pixel_eater:
I've searched the forums and have not been able to anything that addresses this issue.

I'm running an Android Nand ROM, this is my second Nand. Ran SD versions previously. This issue began with the first Nand and continues with the second.

When the phone boots the lockscreen will function exactly once. If the screen is allowed to go to sleep or put to sleep with the end button, the lockscreen is frozen and requires a battery pull to function again (again, exactly once). Hard buttons continue to work. Hitting the send key will get me into the dialer, and from there the home key will get me to the home screen, but at that point the home screen is frozen.

I don't think it's a battery or mainboard issue, but I could be wrong. Tried to run Task 29 with no luck. Can't connect to PC to flash a windows ROM (thought that formatting SD card might help). Removed the SD card, which did not change anything.

Any help with this issue would be most appreciated

Edit. I discovered that if I use the hard send key it will wake the lockscreen which will then function delivering me to the home screen which also functions properly. Problem appear to be associated with the hard end key only.

Edit 3/19/2011: This is a hardware issue:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=893037&highlight=lockscreen+freeze

I've determined that any hard key other than the end key will wake the lockscreen which will then function properly. It appears that the end key is either worn out or has something going on under the button such as dirt build up or bent connections. Will attempt to disassemble and correct. Will report back after.
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
Ok here is my sugestions and advice. First try a master/hard reset of your Andriod ROM. To do this cut your HD2 off then press and bold down the power button until the main menu of MAGLDR comes up. Then use the volume up and down buttons to scroll through the options until you see recovery and select it. This will preform a reset of your ROM.

If that does not fix your problem you can try flashing a different Andriod ROM.

If you still have the problem you can preform a task 29 by turning the phone off and putting your phone into bootloader. To do this turn the phone off and hold the volume down button down and tap the power button but continue to hold down the volume down button until you see the muticolor bootloader screen come up. Plug your phone into a computer via USB cable and wait for the Serial in the white bar at the bottom of the phone screen to change to USB. Then run the task 29. By the way unless you flash a Window Mobile ROM via SD card this is the best way to flash a Windows Mobile ROM, HSPL, MAGLDR, or run task 29.

Once you ha e run a task 29 (or not it is your decission) you can either reflash MAGLDR and flash a Andriod ROM again (Not sure if you will have to reflash MAGLDR or not after you run task 29 so check and see if you still have it by powering off and holding the power button down.) Or you can flash a Windows Mobile ROM by the above steps to put it in bootloader and flashing. Or you can use ASDa card to flash a Windows Mobile ROM. If you use this method and flash a official ROM it will revert your SPL back to stock and you will lose MAGLDR, if you flash a official ROM via USB you will lose MAGLDR but not nessaraly HSPL, you will just have to go into bootloader to check that. Anyway use a 4GB or smaller SD card and make sure it is formated with Fat 32 and then download a Windows Mobile ROM. If the ROM shows up as a .exe when you extract it from the zip file then rename the .exe to .zip and right click the file if it is not a .exe then just right click it. When you right click the file it will pop up a box with options select view or explore wich ever one you see and look for the file with .nbh at the end and rename it to leoimg.nbh. then copy the file to the SD card and insert the SD card in your pbone. put your phone into bootloader but keep the volume down button held down until you see searching on your phone screen and then release the volume down button and the ROM will flash.

Hope this helps.
[HD2 General] pixel_eater:
Thanks!

Thanks T-Macgnolia. I will try this sequence tonight. I did discover a workaround (see my edit of original post). It appears the problem is solely associated with the hard end key. Still not sure if its a hardware or software issue. But should have a better idea after I try your suggestions.
[HD2 General] xhuix:
I have the same problem with the hard end key for about 2 weeks. Now it's not working with all hard keys.

( This is something you cannot find by searching, because "text" means a message sent from a phone and "note" or "notepad" just gets "sticky yellow note" software for "taking notes", so : )

Is there a text editing App for Android ?

Something equivalent to Notepad or Wordpad on Windows, i.e. can open an existing text file, change something, and save it back ?

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] zuben el genubi:
I've been reading here at XDA, I can find the instructions - no problem.

However, in the WIKI there are a few things I don't understand.

The problem also is that all the posts assume you know what's going on and they start in the middle of a thread.

Then there's advice to use Odin, not to use Odin, use this, don't use this.

Some say unmount the SD card, some make no mention of SD card.

Then there's different backups. I've seen Titanium mentioned.

There's advice to get the latest drivers from Samsung - The phone isn't even in the dropdown list of phones, and the letters for the model don't match.

There's the custom ROM advice. Since there aren't many for this phone as yet - and all you want to do is remove crap, what do you look for?

I have to get rid of that stupid Doubletwist and airsync before I toss the phone!

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] orionshock:
It is rather confusing isn't it...

In a simple answer....

Find the SuperOneClick zip file in one of those threads in the Dev forum & root the phone.Then go get TitaniumBackup ( Pro Recommended ) & you can remove the bloatware. I'd recommend the Pro Version so you can freez the apps you don't delete.

That's what i did on my SGS4G ( and i am not a experianced modder myself )

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] zuben el genubi:
Which one? PSneuter?

Also some confusion about the Samsung driver. I also have a Galaxy 3. I downloaded Kies and the driver. I downloaded the new driver (did not install it)and stuck it in a folder named Samsung on the Desktop. Kies is in the Samsung folder in programs and I assume that the original driver is in there, too. The driver is listed in Add/Remove programs.

I can either delete Kies or rename that file to something else, and stop Kies from running. So there's 2 drivers, and I suspect they are the same.

Since I can't send a download from the Market on the PC to the phone, I have to download from Market on the phone. I can't install Titanium unless I root, but can I get to Titanium from the phone if I do root?

Thanks

I have no experience with rooting with XP but I assume it would be essentially the same steps.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] nwpro3:
It’s not that difficult to root the SGS 4G Phone. The first thing you need to do is make sure your phone is communicating with your computer. Install the Samsung USB drivers.(make sure you have the right drivers for your O.S. either 32bit or 64bit) In your phone go into Settings/Applications/Development and make sure you check “USB debugging”. Connect your Tethering cable to your phone. On your home screen you should see “USB Connected” popup on top of your screen. You should be able to press USB connected button from the drop-down menu on the home screen and see the external SD card on the computer now. If that works then Turn off USB storage. (leave “USB debugging” checked) Open NOD32 application from your system tray. Go to Settings and select “Temporarily disable antivirus,” put your password in if prompted. Then Download SuperOneClickv1.7-ShortFuse, expand the file and go to SuperOneClickv1.7-ShortFuse Directory. Run the SuperOneClick App. When it opens don’t change anything and just click “Root” and let it run. It should say rooted when done. Then go to the Market on your phone and get Titanium Backup and install it. It will ask for SuperUser permission and accept that on your phone. If that fails press “Problems” button, Then “Get Busybox”. Install the new Busybox. You may have to close and reopen Titanium Backup again. I would say to download and install ClockworkMod after rooting and before getting Titanium Backup, Except ClockworkMod currently does not work for the SGS 4G Yet. So, skip that step for now. You should be able to backup your phone after this.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Chamgea:
This is good information, but what about for Mac users? I was previously able to root my Samsung Vibrant just by installing the update.zip file via CWM. Should Mac users wait for this course or can we make it happen now?

Also, what's the benefit of rooting right now? Just to remove bloatware? There's no custom roms yet, right?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
Look at the Unix instructions about associating the USB ID with the Mac. I haven't tried it, but I suspect that is the missing step.

Update: Nope -- According to Google, http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/device.html#setting-up

Setup your system to detect your device.

* If you're developing on Windows, you need to install a USB driver for adb. If you're using an Android Developer Phone (ADP), Nexus One, or Nexus S, see the Google Windows USB Driver. Otherwise, you can find a link to the appropriate OEM driver in the OEM USB Drivers document.

* If you're developing on Mac OS X, it just works. Skip this step.

* If you're developing on Ubuntu Linux, you need to add a rules file... ​

I've read about s-off in order to flash this rom, but if I now I have a custom, so I think that I already have securuty Off, no?

I need to update HBOOT for CM7? And last, I've done a HardReset, enter CWM, and intall CM7 and when rebooted, it showed cm7 splash, but here for 15 minutes...and no change, what I've made incorrectly?

Thanks you all!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meaple:
To change to CM7 RC2 you don't need to change hboot. It isn't necessary to do it. No you don't have S-Off unless you ran AlphaRev's utility which you prob didn't. When you flash the rom, make sure you dofull wipe, data/factory reset, cache and dalvik cache then reflash it. Should be ok then.
