[Q] GimmeABreak for Desire HD ROM

Hi
I installed this ROM and there is an issue with the battery as the percentage keeps going down even when plugged into AC power(not usb).
Is there anything I can do about this?
Thank you.
Dilla

Sounds like a bad battery to me.
Which ROM were you on before?
Could you provide some more in please? Thanks

Hi and Thnx Guy,
I actually rooted my Desire HD for the first time using HTC_QuickRoot_1.1.13 after unlocking bootloader via HTC site. Then I flashed CWR via flashboot using cmd on PC.
After that I just placed the GimmeABreak ROM on SD card and flashed via CWR. Oh and it was stuck in HTC screen after this and after much reading figured out that I had to flash the boot.img via PC.
This is pretty much all I did. ROM works perfectly fine. Except I saw that the battery charges pretty slow. But I read that it takes 2 or 3 charge cycles to get optimum levels. BTW I saw an app that deletes battery stats files and recalibrate it. You think it would help?
Cheers mate.

maybe you can try wipe battery stats under CWM recovery..but i don't know if there are in CWM menu..
or maybe you might also try installing another rom..
hopefully can help..

Hi Jeamy,
Ya I just did that. I will wait and see. As I am a newbie here, I was wondering how can I harness the best battery life out of my phone. Because that's one reason of rooting and using custom ROMs in my opinion. I'm very happy with the first ever ROM (GimmeABreak) I'm using and how can I go about tweaking the phone to get the best battery life?
Thanks

There's a multitude of ways you can increase your battery life
First off, buy an extended battery, they're around £20. It helps a lot!
Underclocking helps a lot, especially when the screen is off. l usually set my phone to run at 300 MHz when the screen is off and also force it to use the conservative governor. When using the phone I usually set it to 700 MHz so it wont drain.
Undervolting is good

IMO..
if you one still want used that GimmeABreak rom but want good battery life..just do what GuyInTheCorner say..
but if you want rom with already tweaked for battery life..maybe you can try SVHD rom..but this ICS not JB rom, good battery life and stable too..

Thnx for that Jeamy. I will try SVHD as you recommend. So I believe via Rom manager if I choose backup and then flashing SVHD is correct? by backing up a rom does it mean it backs up apps, messages, contacts etc?
Thnx

i suggest better don't used rom manager to do that all...if you want to backup first..just do NAND backup (this will backup all inside your rom) from your recovery then wipe data/factory reset (except sd card), and then continue flashing new rom from recovery too..
hopefully can help..

Great. So by NAND backup you mean using "Nandroid Manager - Thomas Otero (H3R3T1C)" app I guess?

No....what i mean with the Nandroid backup is backup Nandroid image through the Recovery that you used..like CWM, 4Ext recovery, or TWRP recovery..there's a backup option in the recovery menu it self to do backup all your android system and data that you used..
hopefully you can understand what i mean..

Wi-Fi / Data working ROM

Hi,
I've tried several ROMS past few days and all of them had either the wi-fi or data not working.
Can someone please recomend a ROM that has these two working normally? I see no point of having a mobile without internet.
Please advise which one to try.
Thanks

You can try shpongle or CM10. Flash proper kernel and you're good to go.

I've tried shpongle as well, and I booted the .img file that was in the zip but the phone was stuck on boot logo.
Which Kernel should I flash for shpongle and can you link me to these two working ROM's?

I see you are totally noob and don't want to search, just wait for help from another. Search a bit won't make you get tired, will it?
Anyway, for Shpongle, you can use HELLBOY 4.2 version or Ironman. For ROM link, you can find it by yourself.

Well I'm sorry but that's not the case. I've read like 50 threads at least during the past few days and searched allover the place.
I've installed few ROM's but none of them was good ( wifi/date not working) I really installed Shpongle but either I'm booting the wrong image ( cause it stuck on boot) or I'm doing something totally wrong.
That is why I asked for some help and not that I'm lazy.

Have you set up your APN?
For overclocking, first go to Settings > About and tap build number 7 times then open Settings > Performance

[Q] green vertical lines on camera view [ViperX]

Hello,
Using ViperX Rom and lyapota kernel. (this issue was also present before I flashed lyapota kernel)
Since the flash at times the camera would work fine but then when I would run it, it would display green vertical lines and taking a picture would show the same
, the front camera works fine always. And if I switch to video recording the camera app would just quit, on CameraFX same happens at times and switching to recording would give an Error could not connect to cam.
At times when I hit up camera it would display an old display like the last time I took a picture of and it would be moving forward and back (one odd frame)
Attaching screenshot for better idea.
I did flash the Rom over and again but following the correct method and everything else works fine
The search brought some fixes of green coloured images.. But that doesn't apply in my case.
great Rom otherwise.
Thanks.
P.s. I did search

This is quite a common problem. Either the camera is broken or the mainboard is.

But this issue wasn't there with the stock ROM before I had it flashed with viperX ...and if camera/mainboard is broken shouldn't it always not work why would it work at times ..
Let see what others have to say ..

partial fixed
I have found a way to know how to use it .. i dont know why thing worked but it seems to work now ..
1. I have used UV -10
2. Dont use the Stock Camera App
3. if the camera is running and the screen times out it will again get stuck so dont let that happen
4. when i open the camera i keep it vertical ..
all of this pretty much makes no sense .but I am able to use the Camera without the Glitch and old stucked Image issue

[Q] Best CM7 ROM for our HTC Wildfire S

Hi all,
quite tricky question..I know..but can someone post the best and most stable / fastest CM7 ROM please? I am really angry about KK ROMs now because the perfomance is simply bad for daily usage / searching on internet / ...
And a little "off topic": CM9 would be with performance worst than CM7..am I right? and also there are a lot of bugs in CM9 based ROMs..am I right? CM7 is probably only one ROM which is "bug free"..am I right?
Thx all who will help me to get the best of our "old machine"

Yeah, +1 here... I'm guessing the answer will be "go back to stock". However if that is so (CM7 not stable enough or some crucial part buggy), I would also like to ask if there is a debloated version of stock sense rom? Or a list of things that we can kill after rooting our phone?
Using search didn't really help alot... All that I can find are modified stock roms - cramming even more unnecessary stuff instead of removing junk...
Anyone?

I hope that answer "go back to stock" wouldn't be an answer..I hope that there will be good ROMs for us who are looking for maximal performance - and maximal performance is also possible with tweaks
