I'll mess with it some and poke around the internet, and report back if I figure it out. Thanks

Also if you hit the menu key in ROM Manager there is an option to "Clear Download Cache" that sometimes fixes poo poo. You'll have to re-download your ROM if you got it through ROM Manager.

That happened with me and it was fixed by reflashing ClockworkMod Anyway I flashed CM6.1 over 6 and it's fine. The only thing that annoys me is that the LED notification light stays constant when I get a notification instead of blinking. Small thing, I guess, but I'd rather it blinks. Is this a bug or a feature?

I've been using CM6.0 RC1 for my CDMA Hero for a while now, its been alright. Updated to the 6.1 RC1 and holy poo poo. My batter drains so fast, my phone gets so drat hot at times (I've caught it at 45+*C). I have no idea what was changed but its made it hell of a lot worse. I am going to redownload and flash it again. This was all with the default kernel. I am confused on what the best kernel and settings to use to get the best battery and performance. I know I should use setCPU, colin's batter tweak but I am generally lost on it.

Use either SetCPU or Collin's battery tweak, not both. I wouldn't run without SetCPU personally. For the main profile I use 245 min, 710 max, set to ondemand. I have a Screen Off profile enabled with 245 min/max, also ondemand.

245 min/max can cause trouble waking up your phone from sleep for calls, so a higher max is suggested.

You can use collins tweak to specify a speed by running batt-cfg in adb shell. It has 2 defaults, the 691 and 768. If you want to get randy, you can tell it what you want to run at. I put it at 768 while on ac/usb charge, then 710 for unplugged use. like utonium mentioned, your max clock speed is device dependent, but a lot are successful at the full 768. Check the 2nd post of that link to Deca's kernel. It's got the tweaking magic settings at the bottom.

Anyone know how to flash a modem through stock recovery? When I try to it just says installation failed. I'm trying to flash a JI6 modem on my Vibrant through stock as opposed to clockwork to see if I can correct an sms send failure issue (message sending center option is not set so it fails).

Maybe I'm doing this wrong. I rooted my HTC Legend specifically to block ads. When I try to run AdFree all I get is a black screen and then it goes back to the menu. I still see ads on site (SA for example). Also, it may be coincidence but I am now having major issues with downloading items from the Market. When I click install, I have to attempt this at least 3 or 4 times as it keeps saying Download unsuccessful. This is when I'm on a WiFi network at home which is functioning perfectly. Without AdFree running, there is almost no reason for me to be rooted so I'm thinking I should just go back to stock software.

No. 6 posted:Maybe I'm doing this wrong. I rooted my HTC Legend specifically to block ads. When I try to run AdFree all I get is a black screen and then it goes back to the menu. I still see ads on site (SA for example). Do you have an app called Superuser? I'm not familiar with the Legend but some root methods require you to install it manually, and it sounds like AdFree might be trying to make a superuser request and can't. The Market thing is unrelated to rooting, a lot of people are having that problem. Go to Menu>Settings>Applications>Manage Applications>All>Market and try clearing Market data and/or uninstalling Market updates (the latter worked for me). Also unless you flashed a custom ROM you are still on stock software. Rooting just gives some apps permissions that by default are blocked.

One thing that has really been bugging me ever since I switched to CM6 is the battery usage reading. On any sense rom, my battery usage would always have the phone idle and phone signal being top two then display would always be third. Since switching to CM6, it is the other way around. Today I barely touched my phone. 8 Hours it has been off the charger. Battery is at 63%. Battery usage says Display is at 35%, Cell Standby is 27% and Phone Idle is 25%. Clicking on display will say that the screen has been on for 7.5 minutes. Meaning I have had the display on for 7.5 minutes in the past 8 hours. How on earth does 7.5 minutes of display time account for 35% of the battery drain? I have the brightness set for auto.

I've rooted my phone and kept it stock - I just wanted the ability to run Titanium Backup now. Verizon is pushing out an update for the Droid 2 that's supposed to fix a few things, I haven't gotten it yet on my phone. When I get it, is it safe to apply, or should I unroot first? I know there was someone mentioning how running his phone the way I am (unrooted, stock firmware) and applying the 2.2 update made it difficult to use a custom ROM later, I just don't want to brick my phone just because I want a more responsive proximity sensor and better battery life.

Sense and AOSP include different things under the display heading and its normal for display to be way at the top of the list. That said yours does sound extreme, but I think you should do a few cycles to see it settles down before worrying.

I've been using CM6 for like 3 months now, it is totally normal for me to have my display always at the top in any situation. Even if the display is on for 30 minutes for an entire day, it'll be at the top. Since upgrading to CM6.1 RC1 C Hero, my battery life seems to have gotten a lot worse, phone heats up hell of a lot more. I have had the same high display usage on 6.0 and 6.1.

My usage looks like:  That is with the display on for only 12.5 minutes out of 14 hours (40% brightness, Magic so no light sensor) There is definitely something up with your phone if its heating up and giving you crappy battery life though, for me the later builds of CM6 have improved things immensely.

I'm trying to root my new Virgin Mobile Samsung Intercept (prepaid  ), but I can't get it to stick. I did it via theunlockr.com's universal method (using adb and rage) and got Superuser installed, but wound up replacing it with the Superuser from the market and the su binary it wanted. This worked until I rebooted my phone. I re-ran rage and got root again, but it didn't stick around. I think it stopped working after I uninstalled Barnacle. SuperOneClick says I'm rooted and the last time I tried universal androot it said it couldn't do anything. Am I doing something wrong?

I just rooted my Droid for the first time last week (actually exactly a week ago, the 26th) and i'm considering either CyanogenMod or Bugless Beast. I'm using ROManager... and i'm kinda confused on which CyanogenMod to get. CM 6.1 RC1/RC2/RC3? Or should I just get CM 6.0? I know I probably won't use the nightly builds, as I want stability. Plus i'm lazy.

I didn't know flashing CM would "uninstall" all my apps and reverty all my settings so I restored a Nandroid backup from yesterday. Are there any ROMs that basically leave all apps/settings/etc untouched and just affect the functionality/speed/look/etc of the OS? Or maybe I just need to quit being lazy.

I'm pretty sure ROM Manager asks you whether you want to wipe, and also do a backup, before you flash. It doesn't just do it without prompting you. Can I ask where you saw CM6.1 RC2/RC3? I can only see RC1 on the Desire subforum.

It'd be under the Droid forum, as he's taking about a droid which is up to RC3. Different phones have different bugs and different RCs to fix them.

Despite rooting a few weeks ago, and restoring all my apps with Titanium Backup, I didn't notice until a couple days ago that NONE of my restored apps are in my Marketplace list, and therefore aren't getting updated. The only apps in the "Downloaded" area of my Marketplace are ones I downloaded after I rooted. Is this normal or did Titanium gently caress up? Is there a way to get all my apps back in that list (other than actually re-downloading them, which I don't want to do because it will be time consuming, and will it wipe the data?)

I had to do that after I kept getting the same error last week.

Now Titanium doesn't show up in the list for Superuser at all. Also tried to "reload applications" and just got the "you need root" error again. I DLed BusyBox, rebooted, still nothin'. Edit: More weirdness...so I clicked on BusyBox Installer, not realizing that it wasn't really "installed" just by downloading it. I clicked to install it, and it failed. The main screen says "Your phone is rooted." When I try to install it says "The application failed, either because your device is not nand unlocked or we were unable to remount. Please use logcat at this time, blah blah blah." So...the gently caress? Do I need to separately "NAND unlock" my phone? Rooting doesn't do that? Epic 4G, BTW. Oh, it in my logcat after failing, there are several entries for "E/su (3009)" There are also the same thing but for 3012, 3013, 3014. If I click on them, the expanded entry says "Getting exe path failed with 13: Permission denied." DrBouvenstein fucked around with this message at 00:18 on Nov 4, 2010 |

This isn't the "Display Unread Count" thing on the notification icon in the status bar, but a thing on the app itself.
