better way: turn your phone off, charge it for one day. now next part is critical to keep it at 100% fully charged...*don't* turn it on

best way: buy the zagg sparq and an extra battery or two!

ultimate way: use somebody else's phone for all your fun and never worry about battery life again!

Yup, that works too because it does almost the same as an external charger - it is only charging the battery, not the phone to keep it running plus the battery, but as I said, buying a charger is really the way to go, because you can use your phone immediately simply by swapping batteries - you don't have to NOT use your phone.

Thanks Root. I went to the Market and it said there was an update for Launcher Pro which I thought I would start with and it seems to have fixed it.

For those that think I care about the battery charing I dont. I was just bringing it up becuase someone else did. I have a charger at work and an extra two batteries at home. So you do not need to comment on if I care about the battery anymore

Also are there any cool things I can do with the rom besides the tethering.

Did you flash the journal on zip immediately after the ROM?

Ok I have a weird problem. My volume is all the way up, but when I try to go through the ring tones it always freezes up and will not play any tones. My phone will not ring either. Is there something I did to make this happen?

I've done this numerous times. Still at some point it starts to FC upon reboot. I've set high memory settings and disabled FC's in the Launcher Pro settings as suggested in this thread to no avail.

Any other suggestions?

Go launcher. It looks just like launcher pro, but allows resizing of widgets without paying a fee for plays version.

Seriously guys - quit wasting your time "bump charging" - simply get yourself a cheap ebay battery charger - it even comes with a cheap battery and shipping and everything to your door for $8.00 - it will charge either battery to a full 100%! Granted the cheap battery will only last half, maybe 3/4 the time of your stock battery, but you simply need a charger - it will fully charge your battery without this time wasting "bump charging", and when you put a fully charged battery from that charger in your phone, it WILL register 100% and will stay at 100% for 10min or longer under light use depending and maybe longer depending on which battery of course.

Isn't a one time fee of $8 worth all the time you save from "bump charging" I do this on my phone and my wife's phone since the days of the PalmOS Treos.

Put it simply when you try to get 100% charge from plugging your phone in, you have to realize that the circuit in the battery talks to the circuit in your phone preventing your 100% from happening with any consistancy, and when you do get 100% it won't even stay at 100% for very long. Sheez!

If your gonna buy an external charger ur better off jst buyin a Extended Battery....bought mine off of Amazon and I haven't worried about battery life since! Honestly though if I didn have it I would still rather bump charge than waste my money on a ext charger (my personal opinion). Oh and everytime I've ever bump charger my phone stayed at 100% longer than 10mins....with light use of course.

I used an extended battery from eBay (china), and it stopped holding a charge last week. I went back to my regular battery, and I can say that I really missed having a much thinner phone.

That said, anyone found an extended battery that isn't larger in size?

I guess each to their own - I like the lightness and thiness of the stock battery since I carry it in my pocket which is also why I don't use a case - but in fairness I use to use a thicker extended battery and it actually made my phone more comfortable to hold (old Samsung i330).

I simply like to pop a new battery every morning and simply rotate my batteries. One battery a day (about 12 hours on a cheap battery and about 20 hours on an OEM battery). This is with GPS on all the time, wifi on all the time with no special tricks or software to save battery - all my radios are turned on and ready to go at any time.

I also said it would hold 100% for at least 10min as a minimum - I have had it stay at 100% for an hour, granted it was not used

Edit: Also how many minutes does it take you to bump charge and re-bump charge to get your battery to 100% compared to simply swapping batteries - when you are rushing out of the house and want a 100% charge, I'll take a battery swap any day of 10 seconds or less - and yes I have tried bump charging on my phones and use to bump charge on RC cars, so I know all the little tricks

mynewepic10 · Aug 22, 2011

For some reason today I was geting a bunch of force closes. Message, swype, android system, etc. So I reflashed the rom because maybe it was something I installed. Was working great for 3-4 days. So we shall see.

Yup, two stock batteries and an external charger works perfect for me!

You had corrupted data. Probably because of an incorrect shutoff, like pulling the battery. You can avoid this by turning on journaling, look for the file on the first page. You'll lose a little performance so it's a preference call.

What type of performance loss and what exactly does it do?

Thanks.

By performance its basically overall speed. When journaling is on, your phone caches data in between "commands" (opening/closing apps) so getting corrupted data is pretty hard to get with this, but since the phone is caching data in between actions, you will see just a tiny bit of speed loss. Its barely noticeable, I personally never have any corruptions so I keep journaling off, but others get a lot of corruptions for some reason, so journaling is the best way to solve that problem

so it's been a really long time since any new action on a Syndicate Rom. Since this one has been my favorite, along with Quantum which also stopped development long ago, but I'm sort of itching to try something new... what is a more recent ROM people are digging these days? I liked this one and quantum because they were nice and streamlined focusing on performance not style. What's out there that you guys like?

I am guessing if you had issues like mine installing journal after the fact will not really do anything for you?

Also if you this does happen and you do not have journaling turned on there is nothing that can be done?
