First things first... Long time reader, (well, since november) but a first time poster ... Ive learned an unbelievable amount from this site, and am currently running Fresh ROM 1.1, and LOVING it
However, i have a few questions... I figured it would be easier to condense it into one thread, unless i need to make more...
1. Im loving the new blueish theme. However, even with older versions, and the stock rom, i cant ever tell how much battery life i actually have.. I was wondering if it were possible to have a text indication as opposed to an icon? I remember reading somewhere that the OS only supports 20% (i think) increments... but even so, it would be easier to figure out how much battery i have. Im guessing its some type of image(s) that just update according to the reported battery percentage, but i have no clue.. If thats so, could the images be replaced with images containing text? I figured if this was possible, it could be applied thru a ROM update.zip (as done from recovery).
2. I don't know if this is a Fresh ROM "bug" or not, but i was on the phone the other day, and when i pulled it away from my face to turn the screen on, then disconnect the call, i had to drag down on the screen like it was locked. Now, this was a three way call, and my first ever on this phone. So thats why I am unsure if its even a bug... Perhaps its meant to be? I just found it odd.
3. MMS over WiFi problem... This was brought up in another thread that never received a reply... I doubt this is a Fresh ROM problem, as i had the problem on stock rom as well: when WiFi is enabled, I am unable to send OR receive any MMS messages. The message will show up in the chat log, BUT, when i press "download," the EVDO icon pops up in the status bar for a split second, then disappears and the picture does not download. As soon as i turn off WiFi and press download, it downloads it with no problem. Anyone know what is causing this? and is there a workaround? Or do i just have to turn off wifi for MMS? I thought the system would be smart enough to turn on & use EVDO when needed.
Thanks

Look into the Tsowen(sp?) battery icon for that. It was the default in 1.0, but if you're interested in accurate battery percentages, the HTC Battery Widget from the market place gives info on voltages, heat, battery type, and level down to 1%.
thanks for that.. i didnt think to look in the market. not exactly what i was looking for but itll do lol.
also you may want to try Power Manager from the market, it has a very accurate percentage readout along with the ability to limit certain things from running at lower battery life, such as dimming the screen automatically and also turning off wifi and gps and whatnot. it has saved me on trips to Philly a ton of times!
1.1 fresh copy paste from gmail no longer works
I usually during work have to touch my email screen when i have the gmail application up and it normally grabs the address thats on the screen in the body of the email......with the new fresh 1.1 it doesnt anymore. Is there a fix for this???
thanks
yeah the apps work. i was just hoping there was some way to replace the icon in the notification bar with text.
Last night I was rudely awakened by what I thought was a text message but from what I can tell, the "battery charged" message now makes a sound notification?! Someone please tell me I am crazy and I was half asleep. Or you can tell me how to stop it
Also, when you first start after the update, you get an option to send Google your location info at random. I want to change that setting and I can't find for the life of me where it is. Anyone know?
Hi,
I'm getting this notification randomly about some sort of battery saving program and when I tap it, it opens up a web page. I don't know what has caused it to occur. It started when I installed imilka's cm9 but I did a fresh install and so I was installing lots of software back on yo my phone at the time so it could be anything.
I get the notification about 3 times per day and its starting to annoy me because it is clearly malware that I have not asked for. Goodness knows what other problems it might be causing.
Here's a screenshot. Hopefully someone can enlighten me... just let me know if there's any other info I can provide. Might not be able to respond until later tonight as I'm about to go to work.
Thanks for the help.
Try Air Push Detector and Addons Detector application from the play store.
I think I've found a cause for battery drain on my and possibly other devices. It seems every few moments an icon flashes by very quickly. I began noticing this a month or so and upon closer inspection when I can actually get a good look at it, it looks like a grayed version of the Sense 5 Stocks app icon . It's strange because I don't use the app at all. Any idea what this actually is/could be or potentially a way to stop it. Or is nobody else experiencing this and I'm just crazy or unlucky?
Any help appreciated and I will answer any questions you need to help resolve this.
Thanks,
Hi, sometimes when i use my phone a wild black screen appears with absolutely no reason, it's like a blank adv with a cross in the corner, i managed to take a screenshot when it came 2 mins ago:

If anyone knows the problem behind this it would be very appreciative.
Thanks for reading.
Edit: I'm also experiencing an abnormal massive battery drain like shown in this screenshot, this is getting really strange i need serious help!

Could be malware or another app hogging resources with a continuous background process kept alive with the blank screen and/or notification.
For record, I usually avoid installing apps from shady devs even from the PlayStore.
