[MattyP]

Well kids, I am out of gas. My brain is shutting down. I haven't seen my bed in 5 days and it's calling out my name. :blink:

Catch y'all tomorrow!

Since stepping up to 215, I'm getting android.process.media has stopped. I'm going to clear the cache and see what happens... it may be time for yet a few more FDR's...

 

[94lt1]

Cleared the cache.. let's see what happens..... I'm almost thinking it has something to do with the play store... cause it was happening the most when I was backing out of the play store..

OK, well let's see how this next training goes. I might suggest you boot to recovery and clear the cache first. Maybe even go to advanced and clear DALVIK.

I have no advanced menu in recovery.

Oh boy, lets see itzjusme, give me a few minutes to see if I can find it. I was thinking it was in the menu where it has clear cache.

Ok, I did the same thing... looked in recovery. It is not there.

You can find it in titanium backup. Menu button, clean up the Dalvik cache.

Got the answer....

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dalvik_(software)

Dalvik is the process virtual machine (VM) in Google's Android operating system. It is the software that runs the apps on Android devices. Dalvik is thus an integral part of Android, which is typically used on mobile devices such as mobile phones and tablet computers. Programs are commonly written in Java and compiled to bytecode. They are then converted from Java Virtual Machine-compatible .class files to Dalvik-compatible .dex (Dalvik Executable) files before installation on a device. The compact Dalvik Executable format is designed to be suitable for systems that are constrained in terms of memory and processor speed.
Dalvik is open-source software. It was originally written by Dan Bornstein, who named it after the fishing village of Dalvík in Eyjafjörður, Iceland, where some of his ancestors lived.[SUP][1][/SUP][SUP][2][/SUP]

Very nice! That's what Rescue Squad is ALL about!

And sorry for leaving this one hanging, but now I'm sure you understand why wiping DALVIK can be a true savoir. Those compressed instruction sets can get a bit buggered up at times, and since they are written by the OS, clearing them lets the OS re-write them and you're sure to start fresh again.

This is why I just wait for the OTA's. My life has enough CHAOS in in right now, although I understand the Man from UNCLE and the Rescue Squad live for this. :biggrin:

Thanks for all you do, guys. You pave the way for us little peeps. View attachment 53772

So i take it you must be rooted to clear the dalvik?

 

[joshxdroid]

Since updating to .215 my touch screen responds strangely at times. Especially notable when typing. This happens when three phone is charging. I remember someone else mentioning this. So Is there a fix? Or do i have to wait for the next update?

Alright, well i cleared my cache at 10%(not dalvik because i lost my root) rebooted, shutdown and started round one of meter training. I'll come back after round 2 and another drain to post my results. If this time around don't work I'll root, clear dalvik cache and cache partition and try again.

Thank you. EXCELLENT instructions to follow.
I am now at 215 and will train my battery and get back to everyone.
Quick question, Why does it take SO SO LONG to recharge the DROID MAXX ?
I am hoping 215 will help with recharge times and lasting battery power since ICS update.

In plain Engrish, the Razr Maxx's battery is much larger than other smartphone batteries. Think of it along the lines of filling up a 20 gallon gas tank as opposed to filling up a 10 gallon gas tank. I don't remember the specs on the battery off the top of my head, but I'm sure FoxKat can weigh in on the subject
