Hello, people!
I'm having a seriou problem... My Defy's battery is having a drops diring changing and discharging...
When it is charging, the battery makes a up from 50% to 60%, and when it is didcharging, my battery have drops from 60% to 50%...
I have applied many kinds of "fix", but it isn't working on my Defy...

I found this file, and I confirmed that it was with wrong user and group. I changed to system, but I was not having any battery drops since I am on CM 7.2 stable.

Hello friend...
What did you do?
Where is this file?
I don't understand...
I have to download a fix, and download an old cc_data ?
After this, need I to delete the battd at pds/public ?
What I really want to do? I'm very confused...
:silly: :silly: :silly:
-----------------------------------------------EDIT-----------------------------------------
I moved the folder battd (from pds/public) to the system folder (after, I rebooted my mobile),
Now I'll waiting for what will occur with the stats...

Hello, friends!

You are doing it wrong.
What you need to do is already in the article, but here are steps:
1. To find out which version you have, check the size of the /data/battd/cc_data file.
cc_data = 16 bytes - old battd,
cc_data = 24 bytes - new battd.
2. If you have the new battd file whose size is 24 bytes, and the owner and group of that file (look in properties. Use ES File Explorer) is mot_accy then change it to system using ES File Explorer or terminal using the following command:
Code:
chown -R system:system /data/battd
3. Reboot and charge your battery to 100%.
Now you should not get battery drops unless your battery is really dying like mine!
I got a new battery from a local dealer. Its not original, but does the job.

Still confused

(Sorry for my terrible english )
I think that the battery doesn't have the same charge capacity...
(This Defy has 2 or 3 years, and the battery is still the original )
And is it....

All this can be easily done from inside ES File explorer. Please use that, as there is really no need to use the terminal.
Of course you will need to have root options enabled in ES File explorer settings.
Just press Menu and in the grey area that opens, scroll down and enable Root Explorer.

Ok, my ES explorer shows Group: System for the folder battd (data/battd)...
Is it the correct? or no?
The other option under the Group is system too...

Extended Battery on MDJ Clean 2.4 Kernel 8.4eb

I'm using a 2400mah extended battery I got on eBay with MDJ Clean Sense 2.4v with 8.4eb kernel.
My battery will display 24% battery and when I remove and replace the battery it will show something like 74%.
I think I've seen this question asked before but I can't find it.
Does anyone know if there's a fix?
Thanks!

From what you're saying, I think you might be looking at the sdcard directory using either your computer or a standard file explorer (i.e. ES File Explorer or Astro File Manager). You need to use the app ROOT EXPLORER and browse the system files while running Android. This will allow to see every system file/folder. You can either support the development of the app by buying it from the market, or google "root explorer mobilism" and download the apk from that forum. Once you get that app installed and running. You'll be able to find your batterystats.bin file in the directory I posted. /root/data/system/....and FYI, when I say "/root/" it's not an actual folder that you'll see when you open Root Explorer, it just means the very base of the directory. So when you open up Root Explorer, just look for a "data" folder, and then a "system" folder inside that. I hope this is thorough enough.

/data/local/tsprsp?

Does anyone know what this file is? It's found in the /data/local folder. Mine is 1.15GB and I want to know if its safe to delete.
Also if someone could see if they also have this file and if it's a similar size.

Its safe to delete providing you reboot right afterwards. Its size is zero, I'm guessing the 1.15 gig you see Is from trying to pull the file via adb?.

Yes, I had to reboot otherwise the device remained in a totally unstable state (lots of Force-Close because of missing free space on /data)
Using Root Explorer, /data/local/tsprsp was actually a very large file, not zero-sized.
Is this related to /system/bin/immvibed ??
This binary hogged my CPU usage for a while.
EDIT: this seems to be the haptic feedback (vibration) daemon.

Are you rooted? If not, you cannot do it, because you need root access to do changes in /system directory. If, you can do it with e.g. one of the following apps:
Root explorer (paid)
Super Manager (free)
File Expert (free)
After starting, you need to mount (switch) r/w. Additionally, in both free apps, you need to enable root option in their settings before. Now can you can overwrite.
Yessss !! it works (yes, I'm rooted)
Thank you, MatDrOiD ! I used File Expert. Just 2 questions:
in file expert, when i go into options - mount - and choose "read and write" should I be already positioned browsing the "system" folder ??
I've done this way, but I suspect that "mount read and write" is a global option referring to system folders and can be enabled just when entering File expert ?

Only System files have to be Mounted as Read/Write to Edit them, other than that they can't be Modified!

I don't like to say it, but pressing thanks-button would be awesome!
You can also mount r/w while in root folder, does not matter. After closing file expert, you always have to enable root explorer function and mounting r/w again, when you start file expert the next time. At least i cannot find an option to enable it permantly. Which is understandable for me, because superuser rights can damage your phone (so this enable action works metaphorically as a little warning, imho).
Hi, I have a rooted an android tablet (Chuwi Hi12) and find the lowest brightness way too bright. Now I found the settings of brightness and want to lower the settings but the system won't save the file with the new settings. What am I doing wrong? Please help. Many thanks.

[Solved] Phone doesn't start!!!

i'm using the latest oxygen rom and today in flashed the latest franco kernel without any problems. after that I copied the juwe ram optimisation script to the specified folder but I unfortunately deleted the file 99complete from the init.d folder and when I tried to reboot the phone hangs at bootup start. I assume my deleting the file 99complete caused the problem - am I right? I have the file backed up (on the sd card in my phone and on my pc) - is there a way to copy the file back to the init.d folder if this is indeed preventig my phone to start? otherwise I would probably need to reflash the rom, right?
please reply as soon as possible!!! thanks!

How To Change Bootanimations And Boot Sounds !

HOW TO CHANGE BOOTANIMATIONS AND BOOTSOUNDS !!
*The size 7 looks funky eh? *
Ok, so this thread is a tutorial on how to change the bootanimations and bootsounds on our beloved LG - Optimus One/P500..(You had already guessed that, had'nt you? ) .. Basically I will start from scratch so this thread can be easily understood and appreciated () by everyone including newbies to Android ('n00bs' is racist, isn't it ?) ..So here goes...
PRIMARY REQUIREMENTS
1) First and foremost 'BRAINS' .. Please read and re-read the thread carefully before asking any stupid questions.
2) A Rooted Phone. Use any one click application such as z4root or gingerbreak to root your phone. There are many tutorials on the net for that matter.
3) A file manager (Installed on your phone) with the ability to R/W (Read/Write) .. Such as Root Explorer (Highly Reccomended) ,File Expert..etc..
4) ALWAYS MAKE A BACKUP BEFORE TRYING ANY OF THESE METHODS.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
BOOTANIMATIONS
1) Download any bootanimations online (or create one using the link below) and make sure they are of '.zip' format. Please see the links below this section.
2) DO NOT extract the file. Simply rename the file to 'bootanimation.zip' (without the quotes).
eg: if your file name is xxxxx.zip ,change it to bootanimation.zip
3) Connect your Phone to the computer ,turn on usb mass storage and copy paste the file onto your sdcard. You can place it anywhere, but just remember to keep track of it. Turn of usb mass storage and disconnect.
4) Go to Root Explorer and move your file to data/local (put it in the 'local' folder) or system/media. The location of the bootanimation varies with ROMs . Wherever you see the old bootanimation.zip file, put it in that folder. If a file with the same name already exists, replace it with the new file and move the old file onto your sdcard. (Thats your old bootanimation)
5) Reboot
STFU and enjoy your new bootanimation !
NOTES :
If the file you downloaded from the net is already named 'bootanimation.zip' you do not need to re - rename it. (That was obvious, wasn't it ?).
Also you could also rename the file using root explorer and not neccesarily using the PC. Its really upto you.
If you want to download some bootanimations go HERE
P.S. My personal favourite is Transformer Bootanimation by aspee.
You can create your own bootanimations using this tool.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
BOOTSOUNDS
1) Ok, for this process you need a sound file, preferably a '.wav' file, but any will do ... You could download them from the net (Google ) or you could just choose any file from your PC, its really up to you.
2) Now you need to convert the sound file to a '.mp3' format..A fast and easy way to do this is by going out here and following the instructions on screen. You could also use any other audio converters but everyone has their own preference.
3) Change the name of the converted file to 'PowerOn.mp3' ('P' and 'O' capitalized)
eg: change the name from xxxxxxx.mp3 to PowerOn.mp3
4) Connect your Phone to the computer ,turn on usb mass storage and copy paste the file onto your sdcard. You can place it anywhere, but just remember to keep track of it. Turn of usb mass storage and disconnect.
5) Go to Root Explorer and move your file to system/sounds/lgeSounds (put it in the 'lgeSounds' folder). If a file with the same name already exists, replace it with the new file and move the old file onto your sdcard. (Thats your old bootsound)
6) Reboot
Your smiling, ain't you ? Enjoy the new bootsound.
FOR CYANOGENMOD USERS
1. Download this shell script here bootsnd.sh
2. Place it on the root of your SD card & then open Terminal & type the following
su
cd /sdcard
sh bootsnd.sh
3. Now by using a file manager program with R/W (Read/Write) go to the /system/bin in your phone & make sure the file has transfered over! It should say BOOTSOUND & have permissions set to rwxrwxrwx! for this I use Root Explorer or you can use File Manager once you have selected R/W
4. Before transferring your sound file over rename it on your pc, android_audio and make sure it is a .mp3 file. Transfer the sound file from your pc to the root of your SDcard. Now move your sound file you want to play when the phone boots to /system/media of your phone & rename it android_audio you will have to be in R/W mode! Typically fifteen seconds is plenty long and just perfect, however anything over 30 seconds will get cut off.
5. Reboot & enjoy your new BOOTSOUND B)

Thank him for this.
Shell script download -> Clcik Here
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES :
1) Yes. These animations do work on custom roms. You do not need to do anything else as stated elsewhere by other articles.
2) Always make a backup before doing new things.
3) If you still have a problem then you see that reply box below..Well yeah, fire away !
4) Utilize the THANKS button. That was made for a reason
THANKS AND CHEERS !!

Umm well..if you do have the 'lge sounds' folder then it will definitely work.
And yeah you dont neccesarily need to use your PC everytime..As long as your sound file is 'PowerOn.mp3' You're good to go !
Sometimes, instead of converting the file to mp3 format you could just rename your file to 'PowerOn.mp3' but I personally have experienced that only renaming the file doesn't work always i.e it works sometimes and sometimes doesnt..But converting AND renaming it is a sureshot method
Please tell me whether it works for your optimus V..

I followed the tutorial and I couldn't make the boot sound to work. I followed everything by the book. I don't know what to do.

The method works for sure..I tried it on Mik'o Void which IS a CM ROM..
Make sure u convert the file to an mp3 format and also rename it to android_audio.mp3. Before using the terminal emulator to use the script, go to root explorer and click on mount r/w and you are good to go.
This is the reference :

To start go to
/system/etc/unit.local.rc
and open it in the text editor. Delete everything from
###Bootsound - Safe to Delete: Start###
to
###Bootsound - Safe to Delete: Stop###
Delete any instances of it.
Next go to /system/bin/ and delete the file bootsound.
Now go to /system/build.prop and open it in the text editor. Scroll all the way to the bottom and delete any instance of
ro.config.play.bootsound=1.
Now delete build.pro this is an error in the bootsound script. If you don't have this file don't worry about it.
Now open the bootsnd.sh file you downloaded and scroll to the bottom. Find the line that reads
echo ' ' >> /system/build.pro
and add a p at the end so it reads
echo ' ' >> /system/build.prop
and then save and exit.
Now open terminal emulator and type in:
su
cd /sdcard
sh bootsnd.sh
Now go to /system/bin/ and verify that the file bootsound was created and make sure it has full permissions.
If all is well place android_audio.mp3 in /system/media/ if it isn't there already. Reboot and enjoy your bootsound!

Gotta say, this worked like a charm! Now I have to decide which one I like best. The Transformers one would be awesome if it had a corresponding sound file simliar to the movie sound of heavy metal joining into its shape!
Thanks again for the share as well as the awesome tutorial!

Well, the bootanimation is actually a series of PNG images which are displayed in quick succession. The fps actually depends majorly on the number of images.
If u wanna create ur own BAnim there are many threads on XDA for that matter.
