[Q] 1% Battery Steps - Motorola Droid and Milestone General

I'm on what seems to be a never ending quest to get 1% battery steps on my Moto Droid 1.
I've been going through a lot of steps and tried a lot of changes to achieve this, however none of them have worked. I think I know why, but I'm not sure. I need the following file to test my theory.
"/sys/class/power_supply/battery/charge_counter" from the Moto Milestone
If anyone could post with a .zip containing this or a link to where I can download this would be awesome.
After I get the file and test it, I'll post with all of the theories I've tried and the outcome of the testing.
If anyone is curious, I'm running CyanogenMod 7.1.0 RC1

I can only visit the "/sys/class/power_supply/battery", but the explorer said it is not a file?

Thats really odd, I've got no problems going through the folders down to where capacity is. Charge_counter should be in the same folder (/sys/class/power_supply/battery/).
What file explorer are you using? ES File Explorer seems to do the job quite nicely for me. It even has a something in settings that will allow you to make /system files writable

Flash 10.1 working (Folio apk)

Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9172522&postcount=2058
Many thanks to supagforce, for this find!!
I personally tested this on TnT Lite 1.02, with no issues in the default browser (other than high memory use, but I guess that's to be expected).
11/29/10 EDIT: Newer Flash version out, GLES optimized. See this post for details: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9476506&postcount=26
Doesn't work on cm6

Good point. For cm6.1 beta2, just alter the build.prop as follows:
ro.product.cpu.abi=armeabi-v7a
ro.product.cpu.abi2=armeabi
and reboot.
This was not my fix, and I take no credit for it - it was in the big thread. I believe that the forthcoming beta 3 is going to have this change built-in.

yup that was it. TY !
I can confirm it works on CM6 with the above added to the build.prop. I've done it myself.
Wants to join the party
I have been trying to days now to get this one last piece working. I have copied the flash apk to everywhere I can think of but still can't get it to install. I have tried using ADB (INSTALL_FAILED_INVALID_APK), Droid Explorer (crashes while trying to install), made sure SYSTEM was R/W, and still I am stumped.
Any ideas what else I can try? I am running CM v6.1b2.

Can this be hacked to include the mod in the hulu enabled flash apk? Can they be diffed?

Please thank supag for me. I am not a programmer, I purchased this item so I could show my patients video and anatomy intructional pics. There is no way I would have been able to use it with out the combined team effort from all you folks.
P.S. The only change I made to the system was loading Launcher Pro.
Thanks again

I am having the same problem trying to install on full vanilla. In fact, my device will not even download the rar...it fails. I had to copy it from another device....so dumb question, i assume i just need to rename the file to apk, not unrar it?
Flash 10.1 fix
I used a RAR extractor on my windows machine then side loaded the APK into SD on system. I then used ES file explorer to find the file On the internal SD and when I opened it it gave me the option to install. Install went off without a hitch.
I have stock system with no ROM changes and I loaded launcher pro which I use instead onf TapNTap. I have now viewed many Utube video's as well as movie trailers with no problems.
Hope that helps

My apologies for not explaining more fully. I actually have the build.prop edit in place. I tried copying the flash apk to /system as well as /system/app. My problem is that I can't get it to install. Either I get an error, the program attempting the install crashes, or nothing happens.
By the way, you mention a beta 3 of CM. Any idea where I can find it? I did a quick 'net search but came up with nothing specific for the gtablet. Guess I need to plow through the megathread again.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Edit: Could it be I need to fix flash prior to installing CM? I had to do that with the wifi hack before it would work. Guess I need to get another backup going just in case.
Edit (again): Never mind about Beta 3. I see in the megathread that it is in the works.
For the APK error, not sure about vanilla (never tried it). TnT Lite is 90% vanilla so I figured it should work on full stock.
I usually install with "adb install", which is how I tested it. I assumed a sideload would also work. I haven't put it in /system yet although I probably will do that when I build out TnT Lite 2.00 - that's coming next week btw, as soon as VS sends out their new firmware update and I can get my hands on it.

Yeah, the ADB install just gave me an invalid APK error so I gave up there.
I may try flashing back to stock(ish) and installing from there.

i'm willing to even use CM if it'll mean running flash player, but so far this rom has been the most stable.

I am having the same problem as iksnae. I changed the Rom to TNT Lite 2.0.2 prior to loading the 10.1 Flash Player. I get Youtube videos and even Angry Birds but I can't get flash video from CNN or Hulu? Should I flash back to stock and then add flash. If so can someone point me to that thread? Every other hack has worked perfectly.

My GTab was configured like yours. I unintalled Flash 10.1 and loaded the vanilla "out-of-the-box" Rom version. This version also had the clockwork menu so when you Flash don't panic if you see this pop up, just follow the instructions for loading the update.zip file from the /sdcard (I think it was option 2). I then side loaded Flash 10.1.apk from the PC to /sdcard and using ES File Explorer to access /sdcard, I doubled clicked on the Flash 10.1.abk to install.
Then I reinstalled TnT_Lite 2.0, flashed and then TnT_Lite 2.02 & Flashed this update.
ESPN3 works great. Also get Flash_TV from the Android Market and you now have IPTV. I am anxious to get the docking module so I can stream HDMI 1080P to my 46" LCD. No more cable, no more monthly cable bills (I do get internet 28MB/sec service).
Still looking for an optimized Nvidia Tegra 2 video media player that will take advantage of the processors embedded video encoder functions. I expect this will play HDMI 1080P movies quite nicely. Rock Player is rumored to be working on a dual core Cortex 9 version. Right now it plays using the software control option and is slow and clunky.
I believe that Flash 10.1 is optimized for the Nvidia Tegra 2 processor and it is quite nice. The streaming videos play smoothly. Not sure how they will play in HD when using the docking module and the HGMI connection to the large screen.
Best of luck. It's easy once you figured out how to do the original Flash load(s).

[MOD] Display A Custom PLMN (with no SPN)

I was really getting tired of my carrier name showing up twice on the lockscreen and taking up extra real estate on my notification drop-down so I figured out how to disable the SPN from showing and how to customize the PLMN to say whatever I want.
KEY FILES TO EDIT
/data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/optable.db
/system/etc/apns-conf.xml
/system/etc/spn-conf.xml
In the apns-conf.xml make sure your provider is listed with a numeric value.
Here's an example: numeric="311370" mcc="311" mnc="370"
* As you can see the numeric is the MCC plus the MNC.
In the spn-conf.xml make sure your provider is listed with an spnOverride.
Here's an example: <spnOverride numeric="311370" spn_display_rule="SPN_RULE_SHOW_PLMN" spn_override_only_on="310,311"/>
The optable.db needs to be edited with SQLite Database Browser to add your numeric and the text to display.
Here are a few pre-configured downloads:

Flash these files AFTER you have flashed a ROM and booted up at least once! I tested all four files on TUD 3.0.0 Beta, CM7 A3, and various CM7 Crackflasher builds.
*Screenshots are from CM7 Crackflasher build #54 with the Jungle Waterfall livewallpaper
Very cool mod. I will try this out when I have the time!
thank you
Love this, it worked great on Bionix with 1.3 kernel. For some reason running the same rom with the new 1.4b kernel it no longer works and yes I tried reflashing and wiping a few times. Any ideas?
Hey could you make me one and either PM me or post it up?
I'm on CM7 on a Nexus S, and I don't see a '/system/etc/spn-conf.xml' file. It doesn't seem to exist on mine. I'm on the latest nightly (#8) and have updated everything. Am I missing something?
How exactly did you get these files? I'm having all sorts of trouble with this. First off, the optable.db file is zero K, even when I extract it through ASTRO or Root Explorer with R/W permissions. Secondly, as I mentioned in the last post, the 3rd file is missing from the stated directory.
I'm really confused, as it seems that none of these instructions add up for a Nexus S. I'd like my T-Mobile message to instead display "Nexus S: Pure Android, Pure Google"
Did not work on Modaco R9, CM7 or The Cracker builds...

spns-conf.xml does not exist on the Nexus S originally, but if you place it in /system/etc/ the OS knows to use it.

Use the optable.db from my zip and just edit it as you see fit.

You might be on to something, it worked for about 3 seconds then went right back to T-Mobile.
Still doesn't work. Mounted /system and /data. Does it only work for certain carriers? I'm using a&t
Is there a way to apply this to ALL carriers, rather than selecting one manually.

There's a good lilliputing article that I'm sure you found with dead links. Use that, but Google for the exact file names; they're probably on goo.im.
Or Google the md5sum like here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1838804.
here these are links from my own box account. they will never be dead. ever.

all you really need to do initially is flash the moboot bootloader and the cwm-recovery to the touchpad. then everything else like roms and other zip installers you can just move them to the touchpad from your computer or whatever then flash them through CWM recovery. simple as that.
but if you want to just do it all at once then here is the link for the latest cm9-nightly
http://download.cyanogenmod.com/get/jenkins/9588/cm-9-20121007-NIGHTLY-tenderloin.zip
REMEMBER!!!! if you're going to install everything at once using acmeinstaller you MUST change the name of the cm-9-20121007-NIGHTLY-tenderloin.zip or it wont install with acmeinstaller. just add update- to the front of he name like this update-cm-9-20121007-NIGHTLY-tenderloin.zip
then here is the link for the correct gapps .zip file http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip
same thing with the gapps zip you need to add update- to the name like this
update-gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip
now when you have update-gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip
update-cm-9-20121007-NIGHTLY-tenderloin.zip
update-cwm_tenderloin-1012.zip
and moboot_0.3.5.zip (only moboot doesnt need to have update- in the name) all inside the cminstall folder of the touchpad. then youre ready to get to work with the acmeinstaller.
enjoy!!

MotoEmail.apk Security Exchange

I am not an expert in modifying code or developing apps, but I followed some steps and edited the MotoEmail.apk file to bypass the security requirements for an email account. I am using it now on a rooted Bionic running the official ICS OTA 6.7.246 with no problems.
Modifying the code is not too difficult, but I could not find a premodified .apk file for the Bionic that was up to date. If this post is worthless because there is already an .apk out there that I could not find then no worries, just thought I would put this file out there since I could not find it.
Again, use at your own risk because I am not an expert by any means. It works for me with no issues.
Using ADB, I pushed the .apk to my sd card, then moved it to my system/app directory, then changed the security permissions after it was in my system/app directory. For instructions on how to do the above, I used http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=872128
The MotoEmail.apk file can be downloaded from: http://www36.zippyshare.com/v/70902260/file.html

Only thing I can suggest would be removing your accounts and try going through all the steps again. Someone else might be able to help further than I can because I do not know much, but I have been running this with no problems since i posted the link. If reloading it does not work then it could be some enhanced security coming from the exchange you are using. I am bypassing my school email security. I don't think this should affect anything at all, but its the only thing off the top of my head I can think of. If clearing everything and reloading the apk works please give a reply post.
does this support S/MIME? I downloaded a third party app to get my work email but the stock email app is so much better looking! I haven't rooted my bionic or really played with it since i switched from my X2 (which i messed with a little too much). If your apk does what i need it to do, this would push me to start playing with this phone more.

I am not sure if it covers that because I am not sure what exact security my school uses. You can try it and see if it works and if it doesn't just replace the apk file with the old one. It shouldn't take you that long if you are familiar with the basics of screwing with your phone.

FYI and for those like me working in the corporate world... your email app works flawlessly decrypting S/MIME! Thank you... I can now delete that ugly email app i had to download and be happy with my phone!
Any chance you could post the steps you followed to modify the APK? I am trying to find a modified version for a Moto Razr Maxx running JellyBean and not having any luck so I thought I could try moding it myself.
Thanks,

question and battery comparison

There are two parts to this post. First, i am trying to downgrade Skype again. When I lost my SD card, I lost the skype zip I was using. I have downloaded an apk file which is for a proper version, I think. In order to install it on my phone, should i zip it and then copy the zip over in recovery?
Also, because of my recent meltdown, I was able to do a real back to back comparison between the jb rom I had on the phone before and the rooted stock i have on it now. A;; of the jb roms, including slimbean, rebelrom and stock all use battery at the same rate. Frankly, I was surprised after what I had read from everyone, but it looks like I just need to anticipate charging up the exhibit once a day. For my level of use, that's just the way this phone works. if I want longer battery life, I'll have to get a bigger battery.

If the Skype file is an apk, shouldn't you be able to install it as an apk?
I'm not much of a worrier when it comes to battery life. When I know I'm not going to be around a computer or an outlet for awhile I just take it easy on my phone. All the ROM's I have tried seem to do well in battery life though. I'm running TripFX's & Cam's CE beta ROM thats in the general forum right now. I'll post a screen shot of the battery life tomorrow from using it at mild use.

Is the extension at the end ".apk" ? Or is it a zip file? if its an apk just find it in your file manager and install it from there. if its a zip file, I suggest using Es File Manager so you can open it and install it in the file manager.

It is an .apk file. My file manager is ES File Manager, but what do you mean, install it from there? I can transfer it from the computer to the sd card and then use the FM to put it wherever I need, but how do I get the phone to know it's there?

This is what I usally do.
Once you move it to the SD card you should be able to unplug your phone from the usb and then fine the apk in Es File Manager.When you find it just press on it and youll be brought to a instillation process.
Thats what i usally do.

I will look for that. I tried moving it, but that didn't work. Hopefully, installing it will work better.

It worked great. I had no clue that ES File Manager also did installation. That's a nice thing to know. I'm learning more and more....

Yeah, Es is awesome. Im still learning a lot as well.
Glad I could help
Ill keep you posted on the battery life on this ROM if you needed another comparison.

Thanks, but no need, really. With the nearly 10 different roms I have used, none has gotten appreciably better life out of the battery. Or worse, really. As long as i only have to charge once a day, or while I'm sitting at the computer, I'm good. I just posted that comparison because lots of folks here spend a lot of time mentioning battery life.
