Do Your Downloads Continue With Screen Off on 3g or Wifi? - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

Mine does not. Running new 4.1 4.04. Every time I download some thing and the screen turns off I either have my download pause or download failed not completed. Is there a way to fix this??

What custom ROM are you using? Mine does the same (running MeanROM 2.7). Some ROMs are coded to purposely shut off pretty much everything except regular phone/text communication when the screen is off to save optimal battery. Personally I haven't looked into it enough to figure out how to change it though... :-\

That option has already been selected. Does not work on Wifi or 3g.

I use juice defender ultimate and I haven't noticed them stop if I customize an app to be able to run with screen off.
If I'm downloading a torrent I plug it in the wall and select never turn off in display settings. Just turn brightness down to like 5%.
I noticed it was an issue on the og EVO for me. Idk about anyone else, kinda just fixed it without asking about it.

When I was running a Sense Rom, even with those settings above, downloads would stop. I think it has to do with how many other apps you have running. As soon as Sense decides it needs some RAM to run a different app, it will kill the app currently downloading regardless of whether the DL is finished or not. At least that seemed to be my experience, and yes turning off the screen would also kill my dl's sometimes. I would recommend going to CM10 or another AOSP ROM. I have found that the latest CM10 builds Kushdeck is putting out are pretty much solid. I have been using it for a daily driver for about a month now, and I don't miss Sense at all.

I miss being able to near instantly load netflix, crackle, crunchyroll or youtube as soon as I get home, so much easier then plugging the laptop in. I guess I could always buy a atv or roku or upgrade to a smart tv. Not a good move for someone in between jobs lol

Doing a few last things before I let this out into the wild. Until then I'm making the first post pretty.
Version 0.1 released!
Good to see some more chefs appearing after most of the old ones went over to nand. So, what distinguishes your build, specifically from Copenhagen's?

Data is working 95% flawlessly on PPP.
APN properly set for T-Mo
DNS info properly set for T-Mo and it's apps
used different firmware in a couple instances
NO ROBO VOICE CRAP
A few other small things, fully up to 1/24 CM7 is another point.
Overall this works better for me than copen's original did.
Why is the file extension .exe?
Uh, why is this an EXE?
Nevermind .exe, its just a 7-zip auto-extractor.

Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App

i want to now how you install and boot from magldr im not really getting it
downloading now.. cant wait to try this bad boy
downloaded. starting up now. will post with any errors.
This is one of the fastest Android systems I've used. It scores 1670 on Quadrant. Ive had tested others which score higher (into the 2k range), but this one just seems sooo much quicker. Only thing I've found that I don't like is that some apps dont fill the screen(the slidelock screen, pandora, speed test). I am not used to such a small dpi and having a case on the phone makes it hard to drag down the notification bar, but that may be from my sausage fingers. Also, I cant seem to be able to pin an app shortcut onto the desktop with a long press. Doesnt seem to be an option for it like other roms I've tried. But so far I am liking it, but it will take some time to get used to.
Edit: I figured out how to drop an app on the desktop. Silly me. Longpress on the app from the menu and simply drop it onto the homescreen. So much easier!!!!!!!!!!
Will give it a spin
Alright glad to see some gb hitting the threads especially on sd --I am running cope's now will give this one a try downloading now its late will work on it tomorrow Thanks for the work
I have installed on my EU HD2 but how to make mobile data working?
Tnx for the build!
Just been playing around a bit on the latest. Incorporated copenhagens fix for su....but I'm gonna give things another go around seeing about getting it perfect....kinda a workaround at the moment.
T-Mobile US users will likely be the only ones capable of using my builds as stated before. Data is working flawlessly in this build.
Tomorrows update will include at least the such fix, Facebook added back in, possible progress towards kineto , and who knows what else.....

[Q] Please help with battery issue

I'm running ICS Passion with Kiss kernel 2.2 right now. My battery has always been iffy however, so i don't think it's the ROM.
I'd appreciate any help though:
This was last night. battery was fully charged at around 3 am.
I killed all apps.
by 11 am with very little use, it was down to 10%

When i look at the Top Apps, nothing looks like it's using too much CPU, so i'm not sure what's going on. Can anyone explain?
Why would i lose so much battery, when it looks like the phone was sleeping?
What am i missing here?
Thank you!
Have u tried a app call CPUSPY?
Its in the play store (android market)
That app let's u see if your phones really in deep sleep...
Hi krackerjac,
Thanks for the advice. I installed CPU Spy this morning....
1000 MHz 7% 0.35.45
200MHz 89% 6.51.47
no deep sleep, even though i didn't use the phone mch all day.
System Panel shows a 100% drop in 8 hours.
Any advice?
Thanks in advance!
It should be on deep sleep most of the time. What background apps are you running?
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA
That's what I can't figure out. I think google sync is always on, From the Top Apps screen of System Panel, it seems that system and system processes are the highest consumers, but I'm not sure how else to tell?
Download Watchdog and see what apps are using your CPU. Also, turn off auto sync, as they might be keeping the phone awake by constantly trying to fetch new emails, contacts, etc.
Sent from my amazing G2x running Bionix Reloaded v1.4
I have Watchdog. it says Android System 5.4%, System UI 1.6%, Google Services Framework 1.0%. Everything else is below 1%
With auto-sync, is there a way to control this automatically. For example, i don't need autosync to operate between 1 and 7am, but want it to turn on again at 7am, and need it on the whole day so i can get my emails.

I don't think so, you can change the frequency of the fetching(updating) however. Or put the power control widget on your home screen and turn it on when you need to, and off when you don't.

Try the Icy Glitch Kernel and see if that helps with battery life.
Also, try the AOKP rom, its more or less the same thing as Passion, but works a lot better than Passion did, at least for me.
Ended up downloading an app called Better Battery Stats. Found that my GPS location provider was running down the battery. This was because the Beautiful Widgets was set to geolocation, and so gps was pretty much running all the time.
Much better battery life now.
Thanks for all your help!

Wifi and car dock

Couple of quick questions. Is there a way to make my phone stop searching for wifi. I turn it off then look at my phone and it tells me there is open wifi. I never use wifi so I have no need for this. Also is there a fix for the car dock not charging while using gps

Anyone have a fix for these

You on ICS or GB? Go to settings>wifi>hit menu capacitive button>advanced>check never auto turn on Wifi. That should take care of it. On the same menu at the top there's the option to notify you if there is wifi when launching apps. You can uncheck it too.
If you're talking about the iBolt car dock sold through Verizon, Google for their (iBolt's) web site, and leave a message explaining the problem, including your address. They'll exchange for a new dock which charges properly.

Does that only work in ICS??
I would like to eliminate WiFi turning on by itself myself as a I NEVER use it, but I don't seem to have those settings in GB.
I occasionally swap to an earlier version of the kernel I'm running as I know it breaks WiFi, but there has to be an easier way to do it than that...............

I was thinking that those settings were in GB as well. I can't remember for sure because I've been on ICS for a good bit. I know the advanced menu is there. Just not sure what all was on it.

Yea I'm looking at that exact same screen in GB, except that one line isn't there.
It goes right from best Wi-Fi performance to Wi-FI proxy, that additional line your SS shows isn't there in GB.
Is there something in the Sleep Policy, or perhaps the main Wi-Fi screen (not Advanced). I remember having that option somewhere.
Might it be in the Power settings?
Open up the regular Dock program, go into the settings and disable the automatically turn on wifi setting. Even though it's only in there, it also turns it on when you use the car dock.

Drop-Down Settings

Coming from my OG Evo and Deck's ROM, I'm really missing the drop-down settings toggles on this phone. It's funny, too: I swore I'd never go back to Sense after I finally got rid of it for AOSP back in the Vaelpak days, but things are so smooth and flawless with the LTE that I actually have no desire to switch to anything else at the moment (I've only had the phone for a week, though).
Except for the toggles! I'm constantly finding myself flipping down the notification menu looking for a sound profile switcher or a 5-way brightness control or a WiFi toggle or even quick access to airplane mode. I know there are widgets available to partially cover this, but those aren't accessible from within other apps.
End communication.

Dont worry this will all come in due time. I think viper rom has some toggles already.
Well now it's just one more step... You just gotta press settings. I'm sure in due time a developer will create a rom with these settings.

Well GPS is technically two steps now. Click settings then location. Wish they left that with wifi, bluetooth, etc.
Not to worried about it. I'm sure it will be on a ton of ROMs.

Google Now

Is our Phone Armv6 or Armv7
pretty sure Armv7
http://www.mediafire.com/?hsos53699wq2ttm
that's the google now I flashed. It's not perfect but it was the best one I could find.
You're probably looking at this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1747224
That's where I got it from.
I wish I could get a fully functional version. It's almost perfect, but it's not the updated version, and if you try to exit with the ''back'' button it wont work, only if you hit ''home''
but all the commands and voice functionality work.
Does anybody else have 2 options for Google voice typing under the input method selection screen after installing Google Now? I'm not sure if I did something incorrectly during install or if it should be expected.

You'll get two options and they are both functional. If you click them you can test them both.
You can also freeze one or the other of you have titanium backup or something similar.

I've been working around it without a problem, I just didn't know if it was an error on my part
how many of you are running this? if you are running it do you have cards working?
i've had it and like it (the search part works, i can't add cards)... although it appears a bunch of functions don't work. it appears the easiest solution is for us to wait for JB to come out?
Google now with cards is working nicely on the cm10 preview in the development section. It wasn't working the same way when I was on viper with this version
Sent from my Incredible 4G LTE using Tapatalk 2
Use the app for a while. I felt like I didn't have any cards pop up for a while. Give it a chance to collect data and you'll notice a difference. I've been using it for several months now and it gives me traffic to work smh home, recent places I've shown interest in, train arrival times for the subway and railroad stations I'm near, weather conditions as well as heads up notifications letting me know when I need to leave my current location to make a calendar appointment on time. It really is awesome, but you'll have to give it a bit of time.
This version also has a lot of glitches, like you can't hit "back" out of the app or it will freeze until you do a refresh.
The developers only went so far as to develop for ICS, and then stopped so not everything functions correctly. Just install Cyanogen now that we have it, it works great!
just today it popped up a card for driving directions home and traffic! kinda cool... had the locations wrong so i corrected them. i'll see how it starts behaving - nice to see it's starting to figure some stuff out. it does give me cards for calendar events...
i keep watching the cyanogen thread... i've never run that rom before. i may try it for fun some time although i'm really happy with the viper rom.
I love the cm10 rom. Been running it since the day it was previewed. Google now works great on it. After it learns your behaviors the cards come up all the time for me. It even gives me driving eta to home and work in the notification bar when I start my trips without even opening the search app.
