[Q] battery stuck & Camera does not work froyo - Touch Cruise Android Development

I installed incubus's froyo RLS15. It ran smoothly and most of it (Wi-fi and Bluetooth, making Calls) seems to work fine. But the battery meter and the Camera doesn't work at all.
The camera application gives a Green screen and the Batter meter won't charge (even after keeping it plugged in for hours it just stays at 15 % and android gives me warnings, it still runs though)
Is there any way I can get these to work properly once again.

Same Problems here
I have the same Problems here. No Camera, only green screen, and battery runs out very quick. took a lot of hour to load. Sometimes when i reach the 15% battery limit the system shutdown. After loading and reboot the system give a lot of error messages, like google.api.acore have to be closed or google.api.bluetooth or google.api.mms or something like that. System is not usable anymore and need to be reinstalled by pressing the DPAD during the startup.
I like Froyo RLS 15 on my old Polaris. I flashed the NAND, overlocked to 525 MHz and if the system is running (during one battery load) it make everything very good and fast except the camera function mentioned above.
(In this time my WM-Phone have to stay at home)
What could the problems be about the battery?
Regards the Honkman

About Camera, my experience is according to Radio & Kernel. Please try to flash you Radio, and use 2.6.25, I think its better than 2.6.32

Thanks for the hint with the radio. I will try it and maybe change the kernel.

Where can I get a radio
I just hard-spl and flashed the rom with the steps from "[UP 12/08/2010]simple steps to flash andriod on NAND"
They didn't mention anything about a radio there.... where can I get the radio and how do you install it?

Battery Drain in HTC touch pro after flashing with Energy ROM

HI Friends,
Can anyone suggest what needs to be done as my HTC touch pro is unable to give atleast 1 day battery backup after flashing with Energy ROM.
Can listen to music nor brwose internet for long time.literally gives me half day batter backup.But before it used to give atleast 2 days.
Solution plZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.
Suggest a good ROM with good battery backup along with Energy kind of GUI.
What happend to you is that the rillphone version embended in the latest Energy ROM is not working proply with the radio ROM u have installed.
The solution is to install the appropiate rillphone for your radio ROM.

Reading goes a long way. But maybe I'm being a bit too presumptuous.
Did you by any chance actually take the time to read this section under post #6?:
BATTERY SAVING TIPS
The first few days
• There is nothing special about this ROM to make it use more power than other ROMs except that it is tweaked for performance over battery life. After things have settled down, you should get a couple of days usage out of a charge.
• Immediately after flashing, you will probably observe very poor battery performance. This is due to the charging circuit having to reset itself.
• The battery meter will not settle down and give accurate readings for a few battery cycles. Give it a few days.
• For the first few battery charging cycles, try to charge to 100% with phone off and then allow battery to drain down quite a bit before recharging. This is so the meter will calculate drain well.
Recommendations
• Make sure you followed all of the flashing instructions to the letter. Especially the part about the hard reset.
• Backlight is set to high. You might want to change that.
• 3G is on by default. Recommendation is to turn it off when you are not surfing the internet.
• Don't drain your batery all the way down until it dies. Not good for these types of batteries.
• The GPS sucks the battery dry. If you want to keep track of yourself, consider something like GPSToday that only wakes up the GPS once in a while.
• Maybe you don't really need aGPS enabled. Disable and check GPS lock times and battery drain.
• Applications that run from the storage card consume more power so install oft-used or background-type applications to main memory.
Troubleshooting
• If your radio does not match your rilphone.dll you can get crazy bad battery drainage. Use the recommended radio or spend some time working out a good combination for your phone/carrier/location/usage.
• Check to see that some application is not still running in the background. Check, do not assume. USe the full Task Manager application.
• Check to see if the screen is still on when you expect it to be off. Soft reset can fix that issue.
• Some radios work better with some carriers and locations. Asking everyone to tell you what radio to use may not give you the best answer. Be specific about your situation.
• More stuff you should see HERE
If you have tried all the above and still can't get over a day with moderate use, you may actually have a bad battery. Try getting a new one that is made by another manufacturer.
Friends,
My phone is unlocked
Please suggest if i can change the radio to latest one like this(BlackStone_Radio_1.17.25.09).the ROM that is there 1.13.25.24 is from april 2009.

Yes, my friend.
I have the same problem.
Flashed it 2 times with 2 different versions of Energy for the last 2 months ago, but it's still the same. I have the feeling this happened after Energy got the "multiple home screen interface".
can it be draining out the bat??

unless you bought olipro's cid unlocker, what you basically did is "unlocking" your hardspl, which is NOT what you're talking about
you basically can't flash radios of other devices in your touch pro, unless, ofcourse, you buy olipro's cid unlocker. But that doesn't really prevents the risk of bricking your phone.
Battery saving tips fine tweaked.
Use advanced config located in the tools folder of the latest energyrom...set all power management options to enabled, in the performance section file system filter should be set to 4096, system canche size to auto, file system cache enabled. Try to install programs that are used frequently to the internal memory storage rather than storage card. don't use 3g if you are not surfing. Backlight should be set to auto. After you flash any rom make sure you cycle your battery 3-5 full charge cycles before you deem it having poor battery draining.
As for radio to be safe from battery drain use same radio and rilphone.
I personally use which yields great performance and good battery
rilphone 1.14.25.35
raido 1.17.25.09
I live in chicago USA
Oh yeah...stay with energy

I have flashed My pro with Radio V.1.14.25.35 with the same rilphone.Will also try the advance config and test it for a while.
The battery problem is related to the 2.0 cookie which is still in Beta. There is a patch released which used to help a little bit, but in the last 21683 build it doesn't do much.
If you want your battery to last as before, install the ROM version without 2.0Cookie. There you will get a stable CHT v.1.8.5 and the battery will perform again as it should.

Don't waste your time fiddling with the caches. Any improvements observed are just placebos. The cache settings all have to be made in the boot.rgu of the rom prior to cooking the device. Also, cachesize (which is the tweak that advanced config tries to set) is an obsolete registry key that does nothing in WM5 and later. You can only successfully change the cache sizes post cooking and flashing with WM2003 devices.
Actually it is just the energy rom, I went from tael to energy and my battery life went to less then a day on standby. Went back to tael and the issue was gone. No it's not the radio because I always install .35 radio&ril after all new rom flashes (as well as the fact I use task29). If it was the charging circuit I'd have similar battery life with tael after I flashed it back from energy. But as it sits I can go quite sometime on standby (week?) with tael right after a flash. I can understand having less battery life but less than 24 hours on standby is certainly the rom itself. That's without 3G on since for whatever reason I can't get 3G on any phone that's not an iPhone.
Rom versions I used:
Energy.RAPHAEL.21916.Sense2.5.Cookie.2.0.GTX.Nov.03
TAEL Sept17
TAEL rom is good..along with it i would prefer any other stable rom with good gui and battery backup...

[Q] Low battery policy

Hi!
I installed samdroid kitchen mod, and I noticed, that the phone turns off, when battery level turns yellow (i'm not sure about percentage, but I think it's more than 5%), however, with stock 2.1-update1, battery could drop down to empty-red-crossed (about 2%?), and phone would still be turned on, and it still had about 15minutes of listening to music life.
With samdroid, phone turns off safely, when with stock it dies. I know it is safer the samdroid way, but I would really like to use my phone for few extra minutes...
Is there any way to change these values, when does phone display "low battery warning" and when does it turn off?
You should download a battery widget. The values given by the icon on top aren't accurate.
I use samdroidmod, but don't experience the same problems..
You can try flashing another kernel with a different battery driver, like qbanin's kernel.
Download coolS from market it will slow down CPU to half speed if not need performance and resumes it if needed, it lifes up your battery.
if not intall from recovery LK2.10.beta1, then convert your file systems from rfs to (EXT2 for system and cache then EXT4 for Data), reboot and apply samdroid turbo you'll have a circular battery with 1% and boost up performance.
test it, it's great.

AOSP ROMs Battery drain (staying awake?)

Hello,
I've been flashing a bunch of AOSP roms and with all of them, i tend to get terrible battery life while idling. I've narrowed it down to my phone not sleeping while the screen is off. In the battery chart menu awake seems to be almost the same as the battery up time and the bar graph is almost a full solid blue. while i was searching i came across a post in cm forums blaming this on something to do with the gps and that disabling it and rebooting would fix it but this does not seem to work for me. Does anyone else have this and has anyone found a way to fix it?
I've also discovered a post whereby someone was running advanced task killer on an sgs2 to fix the same issue i'm having but i would rather not rely on a task killer if i don't need to. Any info, ideas, help, links etc are greatly appreciated!!
Your friendly neighbourhood Spiderman.
So, to narrow things down, I started off fresh
- Flashed stock 1.11 hboot from Telus RUU
- relocked then RUU
- unlocked, flashed TWRP 2.4.4
- Wiped SD, Cache, Dalvik, System, Factory Reset
- Flashed PA 2.54/Gapps (my fave ROM)
- Installed few apps. Friendcaster, Tunein Radio and Swiftkey
- Left it at 60% over night not charging
Low and behold, Awake time and screen on time were almost on par. However, I used it on the bus to listen to some tune in radio, browse the web etc and it seems as though one of the apps or maybe multiple are keeping the phone awake more than it has to be and it started draining again. not as bad as before, mind you. Most likely due to there being less apps. So at this point if I want to continue using AOSP ROMS it seems as though I will need to set up a task killer so nothing keeps my phone awake.
Tonight I will set it up and see what happens with my awake/screen on bars. I am fairly certain they will sync up afterwards. I tried to avoid a Task Killer but it seems as though I cannot! I will post my findings after for anyone else in this same boat though it seems very few are!
Get a program like better battery stats or Gsam battery monitor to tell you what your wake locks are

Phone goes down when camera is in use (not camera flash)

Hi Guys
Recently I had a problem where my Nexus 5 used to die when using more demanding apps (for example: games).
When I was starting a game, phone was going off and when I was restarting it, it was usually showing that my battery is quite low (battery level on 5-10%).
I have ordered new battery, replaced it by myself and it was super fine for 3 weeks. Now phone still works, but each time I will start camera and try to take photo, the phone will go down (off). I can start it again, usually around 5-10% of battery will be drained because of the booting process, but even if I will try to take another photo - it will go down again. I was hoping to find some logs which (maybe) will show me what's going on?
Where can I look for it or what could be the reason of the issues?
I am using stock ROM from google (currently the newest is 6.0.1 MMB29S) with xposed and gravity and TWRP installed.
Thank you in advance for any help which may come

Oneplus one acting weird

Hi!
Recently, my oneplus one has been misbehaving or acting weird. I'm running the latest CM13 (has been like this for the past 5 builds or so) and the latest boeffla kernel (also tried a couple of versions) here are the things it does:
Randomly freezes and turns off and won't automatically reboot (sometimes takes about 30 minutes before I can even hard reboot it sometimes the red LED is on and lots of unreadable partitions show up on my pc when plugging it in) and it will also enter some super battery drain mode where it can kill it's entire battery in less than an hour
the WI-FI randomly dies and won't reconnect until rebooted
Top part of the touch screen not really workig? Like the adress bars in browsers don't work but when I try to interact with the notification shade in that area it works fine...
Battery drain: not really an issue, just started happening today with nova launcher sucking the battery dry
And overall it's really slow...
I'm not sure if it's boeffla kernel or CM13 or the phone is just dead...
I tried to reflash a dozen times so not sure
Can anyone help me with this?
Same here but i have everything stock... Except Root and bootloader unlocked
Flash stock rom, make no changes don't even restore Google data just set it up as a clean device, and see if it's still misbehaving. If it is its hardware.
