in Android, it only breathes during power collapse, not charging. Newer kernels (last month and a half, probably) should say in Android whether they are charging or not. Sometimes the phone will be in a high drain state (getting hot and never cooling down -- not sure why), and then it's hard for the charger to keep up with the drain. Sometimes that's not the case and it charges fine.

and how can i do that

Learn how to use git. figure out when the kernel tree broke for raph500 (mid-september, I believe). Fix those changes in the current kernel. It's... not a small job.

You could try the kernel that's posted on htc-android (link is in the first post) and see if that'll boot, to confirm that that's the problem.

Mind giving a little more detailed tutorial on backing up apps? It's a hassle to redownload them all each time I update.

**makkonen** · #**1716** (**permalink**) 03-24-2010, 04:44 AM

Sure. Open the Terminal Emulator. (if you don't have one, download from the Market -- Android Terminal Emulator, I think it's called. But I'm pretty sure I put it in the latest all-in-one package.)

Make a directory for APKs in your sdcard:

Code:

mkdir /sdcard/APKs

Switch to the root account:

Code:

su

Switch to the ash shell (to enable tab-completion):

Code:

sh

Change to your /data/app directory:

Code:

cd /data/app

Find the names of the packages you want to backup:

Code:

ls

This will give you a list of all the packages you have installed. The ones you've downloaded from the market will (generally) be of the form com.author.appname.apk. The apps from the AndroidApps directory will also show up here. Disregard them.
For each app you want to backup, copy it to the directory in the sdcard:

Code:

cp com.author.appname.apk /sdcard/APKs/

You should be able to just type the beginning of the file name and hit tab to finish it. (i.e. com.auth<tab>)
You can also do this via ADB if you have it installed and working (and that way you don't have to type on the phone keyboard at all).
You can also do it by mounting data.img on any system that can read an ext2 image.

Thanks Makk. I'm probably not going to use it, but another priceless tut from you that will get lost in the hundreds of pages this thread has become :P

LuckyLui · #**1718** (**permalink**) 03-24-2010, 10:41 AM

wireless_tether_1_70-pre1_htc_ECLAIR.apk

com.camurphy.toggledata.apk

memoryup_pro.apk

Put up a couple files i found around.. Maybe it will help someone down the road

When done downloading put it in the androidapps folder.. from their it should boot up when in the system! Good luck everyone

i use the task killer that's included about every 5 minutes. i read the first post, and it said "battery response reports, but not accurate..." so i guess thats the issue. also, i installed dualboot on startup but it says my android is missing, but my folder is there. is there a way i can get the program to recognize android files are there?
