OK, I've seen the videos of the Thunderbolt with fast boot, booting up in like 10 seconds. I have fast boot enabled but it still takes over a minute to boot. Any thoughts on what I can do to fix this?
I don't know if this was coincidence but I noticed that on mine after I checked fast boot it was still slow to boot. Tried it a second time and it loaded in about 12 sec. The first time might have been getting it setup in cache or something, don't quote me on that though.
Same. Fast boot seemed like a normal reboot to me.

I've tried everything, removed all apps and rebooted several times - still slow booting. I wiped the device and then rebooted several times and still all slow boot. I've posted this on various forums and so far I've seen a few people that fast boot is not working. As of yet no one has came across a fix that I've seen.
Ate you using a custom launcher?

This might sound dumb but just checking.
Fast boot only works when you power down using power off form the power menu.
If you choose reboot it does not do anything with fastboot.
Are you choosing reboot or shutdown then pressing the power button?

I'm holding in the power button and choosing "Power off/Shut phone down" option.
Just to make sure I'm not just over looking the obvious. All I should have to do is
1. Go into Settings -> Power and check Fast Boot
2. Hold in power button and choose shut down
a. Phone turns off
3. Hold power button in to "fast boot"
Is that correct? Or is their a hidden step? lol I'm starting to get paranoid that I'm just blatantly overlooking a setting.

That sounds write. When you boot back up and go into setting is the fast boot option still checked?
Yes it's still checked. If it were just my phone I would say it's defective, but the fact that my friend got his same time I got mine and it's doing the same thing really makes me want to think I'm just missing something.
Does it show you the very first htc screen?
The one that just says htc NOT the one that says htc quietly brilliant.

It does show the "HTC" screen. Here is a video of it booting up that I took earlier today, in case it helps. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4kDOgM0g1vo
Thanks for the video its helpful.
On my that screen does not show when i use fast boot.
And when i use fast boot i dont need to hold the power button that long.
So for some reason your phone it not doing the fast boot.
Can you check the difference in time it takes to turn off with the option on and off?
I believe it turns off faster when fast boot is on.
But i am really out of ideas. very odd.
Another dumb question. Is the fast boot option also checked under settings>applications?
With option unchecked:
Turn off time: 15.8 seconds
Boot time: 59.4 seconds to lock screen
With option checked:
Turn off time: 24.1 seconds
Boot time: 58.8 seconds to lock screen
I had my friend check his wife's phone and fast boot is doing the same on it. I'm really inclined to say I'm missing something, but I just don't see it. I'm not new to android, I've had an android device since the Moto Droid and have rooted them, restored them, backed them up, put custom roms on them, etc... I'm really starting to feel stupid though

It is checked in both places.
yupp mines doing it too, i have it checked in and it loads as if its not clicked, which is fine since fastboot is only putting the only in hibernation mode and not really restarting it, just another way to make it look as if it has a fast boot, which it doesnt

Hey everybody
I just expose my problem
1-the Folio 100 i bought is a new brand (received yesterday)
2-I turn on my Folio 100, just in beginning they is no light on the 4 buttons,
i wait android to boot and in the homescreen i try to use the 4 buttons, nothing happens, no light
3- i decide to install the Foliomod without wipe (because the home button like the 3 another button don't have any light, i try to press the buttons many time, still nothing)
4- I install foliomod successfully without wipe everything work better but still the problem of the 4 buttons (no light and don't work)
5- I install different recovery.img but impossible to use it, it's simple, when i press the power button, don't have any light on the 4 buttons, look like the 4 buttons are desactivate on boot mode or anything else
I was wondering if anyone have the same problem ?...
I battle with that, i try to do a reset mode with the button near the battery, get off the battery (power button hold like do a clear CMOS) still nothing
I'm tired to send the Folio back
I really want to fix it, they is no way to fix this problem ?
Thanks !
one thing i find pretty annoying is the fact that to press the buttons you have to make contact with your whole finger.
I dont mean to make presure, I mean to make contact with a large portion of skin than just taping the button.
I got my folio one week ago and I am still getting used to it.
Maybe you already tried to tap the buttons in several ways but... this is the only thing I can think of right now.
By the way... the default behavior es to have the lights off and to turn them on for a second when you tap the buttons.
I hope this helps...
Thanks but if you check what i said, i can't use the buttons.
Usually the home button you can use it on recovery mode but i can't do anything, it's like the 4 buttons don't exist, like desactived.

If the home button don't work on recovery mode, i don't think folio widget can help, foliomod 1.4/1.3 has already a folio widget and changing the value of the sensitivity didn't change anything
I think the problem is more on the boot of the folio, didn't activate the 4 buttons

When we press the power button have a small boot sequence, it's probably this boot sequence make many problem.
I try to erase the boot and change it on fastboot mode but it always fail.

bootloader is closed source.. probably needs re-designed, and we havent seen any updates of it, since their update.zip probably cannot write a new one..
i think they forgot to add support for updating it..
just like the full wipe with power button, probably also a mistake..
That what i was thinking

Hi, I bought a crashed folio just to see inside it's guts and found that those bastard buttons are a board on its own.
I'm going to reverse engineer those signal and replace them with push buttons.
All these OEMs should learn that touch technology is only for the screen and nothing else!

i think Google figured this out for us since they invented touch buttons somehow..
Unbelievable!
The chip on the capsense board is a PIC16F722 from MicroChip!!!
PIC16F722 <--- difficult to program and too much problem on it, they use this on clone phone in China.
I sent back my Folio, i don't know if i get a new one or wait for the XOOM or iPad 2 (but don't make any sens without USB/Thunderbolt, SD card etc)
how do I keep the TP from turning on while on the touchstone? I don't want a clock or pictures, I just want it dark in my room at night. I can turn off the power when I first set it on the dock but when its fully charged on pops the screen again. How can I disable this?
Thanks
install preware if you dont have it already, go to patches and look for charge only option. there's several to choose from. pick one you like and use.
I'm pretty sure if you hit the power button after exhibition mode starts it will turn the screen off for good. But what I did was install the minimum brightness patch so now when its in exhibition mode it is much darker and much less bothersome when trying to sleep. To install the patch you'll need preware installed.

Do you happen to know the name? I found one called Quick System Tasks and it locked up my tab. I looked through all the prepare apps and only found that one.

Are you using the Preware app on your Touchpad?
Preware -> Available Packages -> Patch -> Search -> Enter "Charge"
The search is started by tapping the magnifying glass in the top button, which brings up the keyboard. Type in "charge" (without the quotes).

Or when it receives any notifications for that matter. I've resorted to just keeping the cover on the HP case closed so it covers the screen when I leave it on the touchstone overnight.

If you're talking about the temp of the device, I'm not really sure. I installed the minimum brightness patch the second day I got it because it was way too bright to have as a bedside clock. I also have a case on it, but it doesn't feel warm when I take it off the stone. Also, the lowest brightness with the patch can only be set in the screen and lock app. You cannot set it from the drop down on the home screen.

uhhh im sure he is asleep by the time it fully charges.
i have a solution
1) put the charger and the touchpad into a box
2) tape the box up
3) put my address on the box
4) take it to the post office and send it to me
that should fix your problem

Hi everybody,
I really love the capacity to shutdown or reboot from an app, without playing with the upper button of the TFP.
As the application Quick Boot does shut down very brutally (really quick) the prime (shutdown or reboot option), do you think it can break something if daily used ?
I've personally been using a quick shutdown widget for at least a month and haven't seen any negative effects. I will say, however, that I make sure that I'm not in the middle of anything when I do it.
I've been using quickboot on my evo for over a year no prob no matter when I use it use it for recovery and bootloader and all
Hi everybody,
Thanks for your answers, i'll stay safe like soulctcher said, be sure nothing is working on background while quick rebooting/shutdown.
Hi all,
When I charge my HP TP running CM9 nightly, a clock screen is displayed automatically. I note that after my screen time out period of five minutes, the screen does power off, however when I wake up in the morning the screen is on displaying the clock screen - I guess email or some other notifications turn the screen back on.
Basically, can I change the behaviour so that when I put the TP onto the Touchstone, nothing special happens and this clock isn't displayed? I have an app that switches the screen off when the case is closed, and essentially this charging behaviour is interfering with this. I don't want the TP clock blazing away lighting the screen up all night.
Thanks,
Andy
Wow some refuse to do any work on their own....
If you want to shut the screen down all you have to do is hit the power button and the screen shuts down
As far as the Desk Clock app... You simply go into app manager and clear the defaults for it

I'm puzzled by your sarcasm - no, I can't figure this out by myself as I can't identify the configurable part of android that triggers this clock front end. I had Googled it but I can't find a suitable answer there either. Whilst I can shut the screen off with the power button, as per my original post when I wake up in the morning the screen has come back on.
Cheers!

Then you have something installed waking your TP that we have no way of troubleshooting without some type of log.... when you shut the screen down there is no reason for Android to turn it back on unless YOU have EXPLICITLY given an app YOU installed permission to do so. As far as the clock... when you set the TP on the Touchstone one of two things happens... a dialog box comes up with the apps that can by default be activated when placed on Touchstone OR YOU HAVE designated a default app to do this....
Now if YOU can't remember which app YOU ALLOWED to run then you have one of two choices.... go through all the apps in app manager clearing all defaults OR wipe all data and start from scratch and pay attention to what you press this time

Thank you for your reply, but unfortunately you are wrong.
I only have the clock app installed that triggers when the device docks - no other apps respond to this event, therefore when I dock the device I don't get presented with the option/choice, it just displays the clock as there is no alternative. I've found the best solution to be to install 'Screen Off ' from the market. This has an option to act on the dock event, and now when I put the device on the dock I get given the choice as to whether to show the clock or to power off the screen. This works pretty much perfectly, and without the clock showing the screen stays off, instead of coming back on randomly after I shut it off - therefore, I don't think that the clock was coming back on before due to notifications from apps/emails, but be cause the clock app itself was triggering - possibly when the device reaches full charge or something and temporarily disconnects from the dock or something, I don't know. In summary, you need more than one app installed that is coded to respond to the dock event, otherwise when you dock the device android just defaults to the dock event and powers the screen back on periodically. I have never explicitly enabled this behaviour, and without installing another app it seemingly cannot be changed or disabled.
I thank you for taking the time to reply to my post, but I think you should learn something from this thread - just because a problem may seem to be user error doesn't necessarily mean that it is - your post is completely wrong which is fine as I appreciate that you are just trying to help, but by getting all aggressive over it you've just ended up looking a little stupid. The forums should be all about helping people, not ridiculing them - hopefully this post will serve to help anyone out with a similar predicament.
Cheers.
Ignore cdzo72 - he's one of the most sarcastic members of this forum. He seems to have a hate on for anyone who has an issue with anything, and can't solve it for themselves. You get used to him, and ignoring him.
I'm glad you found your solution.

The clock app doesn't trigger itself. Mine charges all night and never turns back on. That said, it is almost impossible to move the pad while it's on the TS without charge disconnecting and reconnecting. And that will trigger the clock app. So, if you have the TS on an unstable surface that allows ir to be inadvertently "jiggled", that could cause the clock to turn back on.

Hey Man,
I don't know if it affects other devices to be honest. On my phone the clock app is configurable, but on my Cyanogenmod9 HP TP tablet it isn't something that you can change the behaviour of (if you tap the stock 'Clock' app it just locks the screen and displays a clock, you cant set any options like on my SGSII). I don't know if this is a feature of tablet OS'es in general, or just the CM iteration of Ice Cream Sandwich.
Either way, the 'Screen Off' app references working with a number of docks (blurb specifically references Sony ones) so I'd give it a shot and hopefully it will work for you.
I had that problem too, it was very annoying. I installed dock no op from the market and it finally stopped waking me up. That seems like the only option since cm9 doesn't let you set the dock behavior.
