question regarding AngryGPS, can anyone help?

Hi all,

I flashed Overcome ROM v2.0.1 HERMES rom 3 days ago, verything works fine on my P1000.

While I found the battery consumption is quick fast. When I check the battery usage, got message like this:

Angrygps: 93%

Android system: 5%

Device Idle: 2%

Does anyone know why Angrygps cost so much battery?

I did tried GPS function after flash the rom, but not for long time. This batter usage does shock me.

I tried to google this problem, did not find similar questions.

Thanks

------

can any P1000 user with HEMES ROM to do a quick test as follow:

charge to 100% battery

open any software wich use GPS, I use ANDROZIC..., for at least 30 minutes

Close the app

using your P1000 as usual

check battery usage sta in ---settings---applications---battery use, to check how much costed by AngryGPS

I think this may be a popular problem

Good catch mate. You are in fact correct. I had rebooted to flash a theme. Lol as the screen shot shows was 2am... B-)

I really recommend trial and error with anything to do with CPU... UV, governor ect. Don't just simply copy what someone else is using as the chances are that even if they work you may be able to squeeze a little more out of you silicon. Also keep in mind that environment can play a massive part in battery life. Temperature, humidity, airpressure, surrounding static, microwaves and so on and so on. One may not be a big difference but a combination can add up. Worst case for example running @ 35c will drain quicker than 28c. If you live under massive powerlines or a crashed UFO is under your house its all going to play a part.

Try the new setcpu and bin UV controller but it does come to the point at some stage of being alot of time/effort for a little gain and I have always thought 9 hours of wifi surfing, vids ect is really solid for the tab, its got a massive screen afterall.. I remember when the n95 where getting 6hrs standby for some people...

Also use auto brightness... its a good little juice saver and is very responsive to changes.

Regarding UV: I have -100mV at higher speeds (>=1000) and -125mV at lower speeds (800<=) with ondemand governor, and it's rock stable.

But the problem is: it doesn't help, 6 hours of usage and a few hours of standby kills it.

You can do yourself a service by googling "How to ask a question." Not trying to be mean; you have not given a clue as to what is wrong.

Please describe the steps you took, and the outcome (and if applicable, tell how that differs from expectation). "It doesn't work" just doesn't get it. If you go to a mechanic because your car is broken down, do you simply say, "the car's broken," and hope s/he'll find and fix the problem?

Followed the instructions and made it til the step 6) but the Tab does NOT reboot.??

http://overcome.mimzo.com/?page_id=64

6) <<Once you’ve seen the green “PASS!” notification like the one in the screen above, where there’s no failed notification, which means it’s successful! Now if you look at the Tab, it’s still at the Download mode screen. NOW: REMOVE THE USB CABLE. You’ll have to force it to power down, by holding the power button until it shuts down. Once it’s powered down, turn in on again. Your Tab should reboot itself now.>>

Although I got the <PASS> screen the tablet fails to reboot; tried to do a manual reset and reboot but only get the initial "galaxy tab" and "samsung" screen; nothing happens after that; its stuck on this boot screen...!!

BTW, this is on a NA BELL Tablet; which has Froyo 2.2;

ANY suggestions greatly appreciated!

Go into cmw and disable all voodoo. Let it convert. Then straight back into cmw and re enable voodoo. Let it convert and you will be off and running.

It won't boot in the middle but I can almost guarantee that will fix it. Takes about 20 mins each conversion

EDIT: assumption being you followed thepittbulls guide to the letter right?? I just read the bit about coming from froyo so you have done the bootloaders tight?

Try the voodoo thing 99.99% sure that will fix it. Won't make it any worse at any rate...

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jeebspawnshop:
Dude, it's IMPOSSIBLE that it's not working.

You must;

1 - Put Tab in "Download Mode" (volume-down + power button) - wait for Android guy digging stuff to show up

2 - Then plug it in to your computer with Odin ALREADY running

3 - Check "Repartition" box (do NOT leave this empty)

4 - Make sure to indicate correct PIT file for the firmware

5 - Put a stock firmware file(s) in the correct places in Odin

6 - FLASH!

IT. WILL. WORK.

Once again, thanks for your time and patience; your suggestion and tips helped me tremendously..:)

EDIT: phone now works, and i am on 2.3.3 as well..!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] rangercaptain:
Flash the bootloader. The froyo bootloader was signed/locked, so that is why we used to remove them. GB bootloaders are unsigned/unlocked, so they don't stop upgrades.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jeebspawnshop:
SuperOneClick root method should work, if you haven't already rooted it some other way.

Either way... Mazel Tov!

i am absolutely extatic about what you did for my tab. before, on the stock froyo i was getting max 6 hours of battery life. today after 17 hours the tab is on 10% battery level meaning maybe another 2 hours.

EDIT: you should have root if your on Hermes? Also cmw is important I would read up on how to get to it and what it does but holding up on the volume while boot will get you in on its goodness.

The .pit file erases your internal sd card, so if you used the default titanium install, the back up folder was in your internal (internel - nobleskill?) sd card.

When you set up titanium next time, change the back up folder to the external sd card, or send your back up to the drop box for safe keeping.

Battery Problems with Under-clocking

I think I have found a problem that may be of use to some people with battery life.

I have been using HERMES since the start (great ROM), and have been using Voltage Control for both over-volting and under/over-clocking. When I first loaded HERMES my battery use was miserly to say the least :p (very happy). However, I tend to experiment with settings, and eventually found my battery life to be very short, eg about 8hrs very light to zero use would lose around 70% :eek:

In trying to find what I did, I looked at my current settings which had a very stable under-volting, but in an effort to extract the most, I had also under-clocked to 800MHz. When I did some monitoring of this I found that the tab was staying on 800MHz all the time. :mad: Last night I changed the volting back to 1000MHz after wiping all of the boot settings (still using Voltage Control), and found that after a work day of virtually no use I still had 70% battery when IO got home (only lost 30%). :rolleyes: On checking the CPU usage I have found that it now spent the bulk of the day on 100MHz rather than the previous 800MHz.

I'm sorry that I have not yet had the time to determine whether the fault is with HERMES or the new Voltage Control, but if you are having high battery use and are on 800MHz under-clock (and from the posts I know some of you are) then you might want to move off the 800MHz cap :confused: until Alterbridge 86 produces his next masterpiece. :D

I'd love to hear if this assists anyone else

Jacko
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] luigi_sa:
jey Jack,

what you using to monitor CPU usage? want to check it out as well...

Does it let you monitor exact apps that are draining the battery?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] njackson:
Luigi - I stumbled on this problem while I was trying to find something to monitor battery usage. I found System Monitor in the Market, but only tried the Lite version to start. When I checked the summary screen I found that CPU just stayed on 800. I then started No-frills CPU (also free on Market) and looked at the Stats menu option. This showed varied cpu usage for all usage but only 800 for the last 5 seconds. Although I refreshed the stats several times, it always only showed 800 in the last 5 seconds column.

Hope this helps ;)

I set to 800M and voltage -150MA, works quite well.

just installed the no-frill cpu and check the summary of last 5 seconds, around 45％ at 100M, less than 20％ at 800M.

so, your problem at 800M may not be a popular issue.

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jrinco11:
I just tried re-flashing it, and data doesn't even work right after I flash the "stock-safe" pit/tar/bin (the first step in the restock process). Does that perhaps point to a specific cause for data not working?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] thepittbull:
Sorry.... was away. Well, the BGJP4 is the provider-based ROM released by Samsung for a spanish telco if I'm not mistaken (Moviestar or something like that... can't recall it off the top of my head right now.) Seems to be smoother than the original Italian JQ1 release.

Anyway, with regards to overclocking/undervolting, it does seem that Gingerbread's a bit more sensitive to these changes and heavy overclocking/undervolting is not properly tolerated, or at least by Samsung's implementation.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Alvin Lai:
