Rom Manager issue

So I rooted today.
I installed Rom Manager and was going to flash the segmented battery mod onto my stock rom.
I run Rom Manager...boot into recovery...it gives me the usual options...i choose to install from zip on sd...and then it goes to black screen and just sits.
I pull the battery and try it again...now this time trying to clear cache...same thing...black screen and just sits.
Does anyone know what's happening with it? And what should I do?

[Q] Render effect app/widget like on cyanogen?

Hey guys,
I just switch to Myn's Warm ROM from the Cyanogen-mod ROM. I love the Myn's ROM but one thing I miss that I used a lot from Cyanogen is the Red night vision render effect.
Is there an app out there on the market that can replicate this Red Night vision render effect (red "night mode")?? Or is in there an option in Myn's that I am looking over?
Thanks in advance for your help!
DT

Question-why did u use the rendering effect...did it really save that much battery

It was really helpful during low light situations, like at the movies for example.

I tried several different ways to get it to run on a non-CM ROM, but the app Fc's immediately when you try to adjust. Here's the thread for it and to get the apk: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=745248#7503402

And as a deputy who works nights having that in red mode goes nicely with my red interior light for nights to try and not blow out your eyes once they are adjusted to night time. Wish that was an option. I also tried to install and instant fc.... oh well....

x10 2.1 default battery optimiser

there is a small default app which works to save battery..i used it and found it really effective,it summarizes all battery eating stuff in one place.
if you have default 2.1 just go to application "support" and then click on tools and there you will find this battery optimiser
worked good for me,quick way to save juice

In the app drawer there is an app called Support. Once you run it there is a tab called tools. That's where it's at. The icon is a gear with a question mark on it.

Deleted that app, too.
I read somewhere you can set it in settings also. Like display timeout, brightness.... It isn't really needed.

yeah it is nothing NEW,all it do is ,it summaraizes all the battery eating stuff at one place,so it becomes really easy for everybody to do everything from there rather than going to millions of settings to do the same,i still have 85% after 12 hours with moderate usage.
.58 baseband
2.1 official
jit v2 and crap apps freezed

I am about to travel abroad, so I won't be able to use mobile internet at all and I really need the extra battery life, as I'm probably going to be wandering around all day!
So today, for testing purposes, I fiddled with the settings from this app, and in the last 12 hours I only lost 20%! That's quite awesome!
It's nice to have those settings gathered together!
Thanks for the find!

hmm, is there any way to get this app back on the phone?

one way for sure, PC Companion and Repair!
And second one would be... gimme moment.... made a Backup of ALL Apps. should finde it here somewhere... *searching*
Nope sorry, just made a Backup from all installed Apps and not Pre installed
P.S Here some Pictures of Battery Optimizer. Just found him out of curiosity 2 weeks ago ^^
Already had only 2 left when i found it ^^

I haven't this either and i just did a re-flash so all the apps are back and no "support" app at all :/

Ok, I found it in the thread of 'all 2.1 system apps'.
Here it is for whoever else wanted it.

Out of interest I tried to install on FreeX10 beta 4, but to no avail. What settings are you able to control? Is it like wifi/2+3G data/blue tooth on/off policies?
It's strange that this is so hard to find in 2.1 because 2.2 is the same way. There are many advanced settings hidden in the power control widget that have increased my battery life with 2.2 far beyond what I got with 2.1 optimized. Not to mention, I haven't come close to going over on my data plan for the first time, and no need to use APNdroid anymore. You would never know they were there if you didn't look for them. I wonder if this "hiding" is an attempt to run up our data plans and encourage battery sales?
@Batman_112, Good to see you made it out of the batcave. Lots been happening while you were away. Welcome back! ( ^o^) lol

I know why it doesnt work on freex10 because its 2.2froyo and the app 2.1 eclair

Very good.
I knew that, but like I said, out of curiosity I tried anyway. Thanks though.
Can you answer my question, since I wasn't able to check it out? What type of additional settings are there? Are they like the ones I described from 2.2?

Hellllll with tv screen off animation and setcpu!!

Screen off animation help and setcpu with cm7!
My tv screen off animation worked for probably 1 hour before I downloaded apps... idk why it's gone but I would love to get it back without widgetlocker.
Also I have read people getting 15 + hours of battery life using setcpu I just want to know what I should set it to and if I should use screen off addition. Thanks

I have min set to 264 for pandora to work and max at 748. You may need to play with max since every hero can run 691, but not all can go higher.

hmmm, i had same problem with the tv screen off animation. i don't use setcpu i am using kifno's tweak. he has two, one for more battery life and one for more performance. reason i mention it is that when i flashed his tweak, suddenly my screen animation came back and has stayed.

Yeah ill try his tweak. I'm gonna go with battery rather than performance. Will I lose all my apps? It says I have to wipe I'm pretty sure

No you will not loose any apps. Mp= More performance and Bl=more battery life. Don't flash both. Just read the thread carefully, choose one and flash from recovery.
Yea it's Me Again With The
Modified Hero

I just flashes battery life. I'm going to wait til completely dead but I see absolutely nothing different so far... is it just like signal strength and little boosts like that? And battery of course. Should there be another application? Something in my settings? It just seems too easy

You should really take the time to read the whole thread or as much as you can to understand how you are modifying your phone setup. The risk/benefits will/should be posted by the OP. Also user experiences and feedback will be posted there as well.
With that being said.
The BL mod will take time to setup you will not see an immediate extension in battery life untill you have properly calibrated your battery. However you should experience a boost in 3g dl/ul
speeds. This will be minimal compared to the Mp mod but should be better than stock.
The Mp tweak results should take effect immediately hence the name of the mod.
Basically you can't have both. Its either one or the other. I run the Mp tweak and it might help with your animations. This is my understanding of the mod. To gain a better perspective hop over to the thread and read or Pm the dev. He's on break now but I think he's answering Pm's. He's quick to respond and is a cool dev.
Well Good luck. If you want to try a mod and have read upon it and need any help let me know if I can I will.

Alright thanks. I'll tell ya how my battery life is. Still looking to get that tv animation back so if you find out let me know

try them both, their both wonderful. i stuck with MIUI for over a month.

I tried both of them and I think they both have their advantages and disadvantages. Right now I went back to 2.2 because NOVA dont work on 2.3. If any of you can play NOVA on cm7 or miui please let me know. MIUI has the lockscreen and pop up messages. As Cm7 has optimization tweaks and Stock aosp feel. I really want to go back but still trying to decide if I should wait.

Hey Alan, I noticed on your CM7 review the voodoo control app has Voodoo Color options. Do you know if this only appears in gingerbread builds maybe?
I have tried to find color options in the Voodoo Control app in 2.2 roms, but all there is, is Voodoo Sound options.
Thanks!

i got bricked, hay what a sad day.

i like MIUI.. i've never tried CM7 and dont know if i will.
i had miui for almost a week until earlier this morning when was playing music using the music widget, it would skip songs or not even finish a whole song then on to the next song.. weird, i didnt like that, it's probably because i was browsing through pictures at the same time on miui gallery ( buggy,makes my phone FC, sluggish) that made the songs skip?. so i went back to 2.2
i like the rom. it's very nice! very customizable and easy on the eyes.. ill get back to it when it becomes stable even if gps is still broken...

Damn! How many apps do you have on your phone Alanrocks? That's nuts! I just counted mine, I have 16 downloaded. But I dont play games on my phone and Im OCD about having too much stuff and any bloat so I keep my apps to a minimum.

Some people dont like charging their phone at night or are too lazy to do so.
To avoid further complications charge it!

I HAVE WIFI TURNED ON ALL THE TIME SINCE I DONT HAVE MOBILE INTERNET AND IM OCD TO 1.3GHZ AND IT LASTS ME ALL DAY SO DONT COMPLAIN.
