2% battery drain in 12 hours over night... :eek:

At last I get the same battery drain as with "2.2.1 / Doc / Speedmod" using standard Samsung software... :D

All I need now is CF-Root to be able to use my apps... :cool:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Jekkaman:
I'm disappointed.....without installing any software it feels slower than my stock 2.2 ...what a shame.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] xmfpdlemalnz@hotmail.com:
You sure you flashed it right?

maybe you didn't do the one with bootloaders.

Mine is snappy az
[Galaxy S I9000 General] melorib:
Mine feels the same, I didnt wipe anything, all my apps and data stayed...

Actually the screen looks sharper, like with speedmod tweaks... :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] spacesheep:
Can you please tell us how you installed it without wipe?

Did you install over stock rom?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] scorpeeon:
well, 2 people already reported they had battery drain with this rom so id doesn't seems like it's fixed :(

melorib: that's nice but one night doesn't really mean anything. i had perfect battery life with JVK for more than a week lasting 3-4 days and then suddenly it drained overnight from 60% to full empty within 6 hours by android os so it couldn't even wake me up. and after that the bug occurred over and over again, draining my battery within a few hours from absolutely nothing. this bug is absolutely random, that's the worse part of it. i may see how good the battery is for weeks and suddenly it will drain so fast you won't even realise what happened.i loved those roms but this bug freaked me out so much that i had to go back to froyo. and it seems like after more than 2 months, samsung did nothing to fix that. such a shame.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] evaldas394:
are the (show all the browsing letters in contacts group list (right hand side of the screen)) bug is fixed ?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Dilbert83:
For me that was fixed in 2.2.1
[Galaxy S I9000 General] melorib:
Never happened to me, battery drain changes when I change something...

Dont you think it is something you changed rather than the software... :confused:

I just ODIN the first version posted in this thread, like I did with JVB... :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] marzello:
The battery drains is still there at least on my phone. It happened about an hour after flash (flashed with Kies this time and did the Factory reset as well as the dalvik cache wipe). The Android Os was on 25% and battery was coming down very fast. Reboot made it calm again. Of course it may be because returning the phone back to it's state as it was before flashing. That means putting the settings as they were, installing all sw back etc.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] scorpeeon:
i want to think that but i just don't think so.. i haven't really changed anything in the system, i used factory kernel, etc.. all i did was installing some apps. (or restored backed up apps with titanium, only user apps, no system apps). if a user app would have done this, it wouldn't be the android os draning the battery but the app itself..
[Galaxy S I9000 General] melorib:
Some apps are battery killers, like google maps...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] scorpeeon:
if an app would kill the battery, it wouldn't be android os sucking the battery.. and it definitely wouldn't be the suspend process eating the battery, and it seems like that's the cause of this whole thing, read about it here.

it looks like the problem is with some drivers of samsung so sometimes the suspend process gets stuck eating up the battery. but samsung doesn't seem trying to fix this problem.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] melorib:
It wont say it is the app, but it is the app that causes the OS to try to access wifi or other, and so causes drain...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Tatsuya79:
The battery drain is triggered by apps as well: just install Bonsai Blast game from the market, close it, phone will go into stand by and you will get an "Androis OS" drain (which is in reality "linux suspend process" if you install a process monitoring tool like watchdog to see the details).
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Stile35:
I installed PDA version of JVH (one file version without repartition) and my phone is not really snappy. It is same as before. Is it really difference if you flash it with one file, 3 files or FW with bootloader?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] scorpeeon:
yepp, that's true. it's usually apps that trigger it. but that doesn't mean it's the app's fault. the same apps don't trigger anything like this on froyo or other roms ever. an app, any app app shouldn't trigger suspend process to get stuck. the error is definitely in the rom, and is probably in a driver as explained in my previous link.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] yken:

[Galaxy S I9000 General] nic007rvs:
kies is very slow now
[Galaxy S I9000 General] robogo1982:
Nope, does not have Croatian (it's not for our region).

Here are some first hand informations about the firmware.

- it's unbelievably choppy sometimes. 2.1 was better in some aspects (yes, I did do a factory reset and wiped cache)

- new icons look... well, ok.

- wi-fi performance is woeful, on 2.2.1 i had 2 bars in my garage, with this I lose reception halfway there.

EDIT: I stand corrected, better reception in the open, some 5-10 metres more :)

- gps lock exqisitely good

- the whole experience is a bit weird, sometimes it just flies, other times the on-screen animations lag, heavily, typing too.

Will post more info with time.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] cba1986:
1) In what situations the phone gets choppy?

I did a factory reset the i flash the deodexed version and the supercurio kernel and this thing flies.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hotsync100:
I Installed supercurio Hacked Lagfix/Ext4 and It seems to be ok.

With Fugu + stock I got a boot loop.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] robogo1982:
I am on stock kernel and stock ROM. Lags when, e.g. I receive an e-mail while typing and listening to TuneIn. Stops for 1-2 secs and goes on. Extremely annoying.

EDIT: is it just me or does the screen look a bit nicer, too?

EDIT 2: I also might just flash a new kernel + lagfix just to see what my baby can really do.

EDIT 3: Supercurio's kernel flashed 2 minutes ago, went from 970 to 1660 on Quadrant, noticeably faster :D

battery drain

I have not tried any ginger firmware yet becuase of the reports of the androidos/suspend bug which drains battery. Can anybody confirm that this has been fixed or is still there. I read a couple of posts from people saying they had drain, so more input would be welcomed. thanks.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mossy1963:
You will see plenty of posts about battery drain....but it's impossible to say how representative they are and what proportion of users experience problems as people having problems are FAR more likely to say so than those that don't

I can only speak for myself having flashed 3 different GB versions, JV1, JVK and now JVH.

For ME I have absolutely no problems, routinely 2 days battery life and up to 3 with low use, leading me to think most problems are down to how people are using their devices and what apps they are running, and NOT a GB problem.

I could be wrong before anyone fancies flaming me....but that is MY experience and not a recycled opinion based on an unscientific number of other posts.

Give it a try....you can always flash back
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Chief_Death:

[Galaxy S I9000 General] ceriko:
So you're saying this bug doesn't exist because you haven't had it so far?

Unfortunately it does exist and people experiencing it don't like people like you saying it's only because they don't know how to use their phone.

Samsung GB = Android OS battery drain bug (so far). But it's random!

(damn, I hit [thanks] trying to click [reply] :eek:)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mossy1963:
No I didn't say that...please read it again.

I said I haven't experienced these problems and its difficult to measure how extensive the problem is without any scientific evidence.

Some people are having problems...some are not and so far no one has established whether its due to:

1. gingerbread

2. apps or widgets

3. configuration or faulty flashing

As lots of people are commenting on (its early days I know) no obvious battery drain problems with JVH I suggested the poster tries flashing it for himself and see how it goes for him. ok?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ceriko:
It IS a GB problem ;)

Edit: Someone posted this earlier, it explains it all.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] melorib:
If it was a GB problem everybody would have it, most dont, so it is NOT a GB problem...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mossy1963:
Can people try to be a bit more tolerant of other people's opinions. People have reported battery drain problems running some versions of GB. However plenty of people are reporting no problems or improved battery life.

Saying "so-n-so says - therefore its a fact" isn't helpful.

We all need to be a bit more open minded before apportioning blame.....thats all I'm saying

I got froyo 2.2.1 installed with Kies a few months ago

I got the XEN version.

1. How to upgrade to this 2.3.3 NEE version?

2. I got Odin downloader on my desktop, which files do I need to assign? PDA,Phone etc.

3.And is it also possible updating with the spoof method?

4. Am I able to update my SGS officially through Kies when 2.3.3 XEN version is released?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] atif.ilyas:
But I tested alarm multiple times. I set the clock and allowed to ring untill it end automatically and when it alarm 2nd time then i put it on snooze and 3rd time it ring then I put it off. I used it many times with many options but it is working fine. Yes it was little bit problem for me some times with JVK. But JVB and JVH have no issue of alarm for me. But in fact, JVH is the best ROM of ginger bread. I used all the previous version like JV1, JVK, JVB. But JVH rocks really well. I use three files to flash.

I am really satisfied with JVH performance not only due to its excellent response time but also better efficiency and good working of GPS.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] atif.ilyas:
Always use three files when upgrading ROM. For example, you have to upgrade from 2.2.1 to 2.3.3 so it is recommended that use three files. Select file having names PDA from PDA and similarly Phone for phone and CSC for CSC. If you are using using 4th file 512.pit then reparation should be unchecked. Else select pit file 512.pit also. If you find single file then always select it as PDA and partition should be unchecked.

I think you will get 2.3.3, but when I don't know. I did it through Kies but previously I installed JVB using three file a week ago. Yesterday, kies offers me to upgrade, So I upgrade it to JVH :)

Is there any need to clear battery stats after upgrading to JVH from JVK? If so, anybody have the best procedure to do this? I know how to do it though CWM, but more so what steps.

Could you please confirm if you got this update intimation and the update itself through KIES?

I have played around extensively with my X10 mini that I had had for about a year till yesterday and am a NOOB as far as galaxy s(it is in fact a GT I9000)goes and have not even rooted my new device since I want to keep it clean at least for a while till I learn the ropes.

Quick review, 24 hours on...

Battery consumption is phenomenal. Amazing. Lost 2% overnight and that was with screen off (of course) and data on.

Absolutely ZERO force closes.

Using stock kernel it was slightly laggy so fired on supercurio's kernel and its amazing - stock rom giving me 1700+ quadrant (don't worry, not using it as a performance guide!) when it gave me 800-900 on stock kernel.

Snappy as hell and also feels slightly more sharp (screen that is).

One downpoint and if its hardware related scratch this comment : only 5 point MT. Gutted ( not! Lets be honest how often do we touch the screen more than twice at a time?)

All in all very happy with the rom! not deodexed or anything just rooted and new kernel. Put the gingerbread keyboard on cause the samsung one sucks and its better than the previous darkys 2.2 by a mile. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Davith:
As far as I remember, it's always been 5 points multitouch.

However I think the device does support 10 points MT because there used to be a mod here somewhere that could activate it. It was a long time ago though.
