Try calibrating your battery. Going into recovery and wiping battery stats. I think you charge your battery to 100 percent, then wipe battery stats (not sure on the exact order though).

Also try turning off autosync if not needed.

try 2g instead of 3g when 3g not needed

keep wifi off unless needed

Tinker with wifi so it doesn't constantly "search" for open networks.

no live wallpaper

darker backgrounds/wallpapers use less energy to light up the OLEDS

Try underclocking too 800mhz??

Last resort, the new 1800mAH Samsung Epic Touch 4G battery on Sprint seems to fit our phone!

I don't know just throwing out ideas.
[Vibrant Android Development] techbeck:
Yea, planned on charging it back to 100 percent tonight and wiping battery status and then doing some mores testing. Phone is at 30 percent now so wont have time to recalibrate tonight. If I cannot improve battery, then I will go back to my Froyo build.

If I have to underclock my phone, then I am going back to my Froyo build. Autosync is only on for GMAIL. I dont autosync anything else. I dont like constatly toggling from 2g to 3g either. I only turn on WiFi when I need it and I dont use live wallpapers. I have the same wallpaper that I did on my Froyo build and never had a problem.

Does that new batter fit in the Vibrant without a new cover? Have you tried it and noticed a big difference in battery life?

thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] SamsungVibrant:
According to people in that thread, the Sprint Epic Touch 4G 1800mah battery is a perfect fit into our phone. I personally haven't purchased it yet.

May I make another comment about under-clocking.

I'm not a developer, but just speaking from what I know.

The Hummingbird CPU does not take full advantage of Froyo's dalvik optimizations. Remember when Froyo came out, dalvik optimizations were suppose to increase CPU performance dramatically (this was one of Googles main selling points about Froyo). However, most of the phones that gained this CPU boost were Snapdragon based.

However, that all changed with GB, and suddenly the CPU performance on Hummingbird skyrocketed. I guess GB was designed to run on Hummingbird Nexus S phones after all :)

To see this visually, you need QUADRANT ADVANCED, NOT the free edition.

Quadrant advanced breaks down your quadrant score and shows you how the score is compiled. If you use quadrant advanced you will see that on a GB rom, your CPU score is DRAMATICALLY INCREASED from any froyo rom. Even if you underclock to 800mhz your CPU score is still higher than on any Froyo rom. Meaning even at 800mhz your cpu tasks are actually still faster on GB.

So you may be asking yourself, how come some Froyo roms get INSANE quadrant scores? Well again, if you use Quadrant Advanced, you would see those insane scores are actually due to I/O and not the cpu section. Voodoo lagfix resolved the I/O file system handicap, thus higher scores were achieved.

However, the CPU section of the score was still incredibly low.

I say stay on GB, even underclocked your CPU tasks will run faster.

I'm not a dev, that's just my personal opinion. Download quadrant advanced, and see for yourself! Don't be fooled by the Quadrant Free edition score, it tells you nothing.

What do you get for battery life and what kernel/rom you running?
[Vibrant Android Development] SamsungVibrant:
I'm a bad person to ask about battery life because I just plug in anytime I have the opportunity including in my car. I never pay attention in great detail to battery.

One thing I can say. Since I first got my phone with 2.1 on it...through 2.2 roms...and now GB...the battery life for me has always been practically identical. If I go to sleep with 100 percent charge, I wake up to a dead phone. Then again I leave every possible data syn on, so is 3G.

However, if I turn data sync off and switch to 2G...there have been days that my battery is literately still full by the end of the day, maybe down to 69 percent only. That is with super minimal use.

I'm no longer on MiUi. I'm running the stable release of CM-7 and whatever kernel that comes with. I am underclocked to 800mhz, and my battery life is acceptable to me. Ill try to focus more on it and let you know in a few days.
[Vibrant Android Development] techbeck:
Well, I am going to do the recalibration in hte morning and see where it goes from there since right now, I can tell the difference between Froyo and GB on battery life.

thanks

EDIT: Doesnt look like CM7 is doing much better with battery life. Must be a GB thing. Worst case, I will recalibrate in the morning and then if I still have to much drain, I will go back to my Froyo build.
[Vibrant Android Development] jrongi1:
Miui battery life. Check setting system battery use. If android os is high(over 10%) you may need a simple reboot. If that doesn't help finding the apps that are not loading right. Also see if your getting into deep sleep (cpu spy) with the screen off and not charging.

Doesn't support korean :/ I was expecting lot more from 2.3.5
[Vibrant Android Development] techbeck:
Thanks, but I went back to my froyo. dont have time to mess with it and wiping battery stats didnt help any. I just need my battery to last.

I did check to see what the system battery was using and nothing out of the ordinary. All looked fine. Didnt check the deep sleep since I dont have time ATM and need my phone.

Hopefully someone can figure out what is causing the battery drain. Not expecting froyo like battery life, but something close would be nice.
[Vibrant Android Development] nickmcminn60:
Battery has been pretty good for most. Face Book App = Drainer

Battery Monitor in settings = Battery Drainer

Some people should just run 2.2 :-)
[Vibrant Android Development] techbeck:
Used Facebook a few times but only in it a couple minutes each time at the most. And Battery Monitor is off as well. Only time I turned it on was when I was seeing what apps were using what percentage of the battery. I read/searched this thread and believe I found most of the tips/tricks to improve battery life. Couple I havnt tried and I will once I have more time to fool around with it.

What I did to test battery life was Play Angry birds (10 minutes), send 70 text messsages, viewed a few news sites, watched a couple 3min videos, ran quadrant a few times, and a few other minor things like checking gmail and FB a couple times. In an hour, phone drained like 20 percent and 5 of that was when the phone was idle for about 20min or so. Froyo the battery would of drained only 10 percent in an hour and I would and can be doing much more with the phone.

I do need to load cpuspy when I have time to see if my phone is going to a deep sleep but again, that will be another day as I dont have the time ATM.

thanks

EDIT: And dont get me wrong, I love this ROM and its fast and smooth as hell. If I can get the battery issue resolved, then I will be using it from then on.
[Vibrant Android Development] nickmcminn60:
Listen, It is hard to give you any battery life when your testing battery in the manner you stated, the screen alone being on for 20 minutes straight is a killer, not to mention running your CPU and GPU wide open for that 20 min. I can only focus on standby time, as every user uses the device different. If you run every app on your phone and put it thru extensive benchmarking no battery will last. There are less and less battery post's each week. you just cant run your phone like that on a 2.1 rom and expect it to last.
[Vibrant Android Development] techbeck:
Ok, I said my phone was idle, no on for 20min. I meant the screen was locked and the display was black. Like when you press the power button and put it to sleep. Maybe bad wording on my part but again, my phone was not on for 20 minutes with the screen on. It was in standby/sleep mode. I put my phone to sleep mode whenever I dont use my phone.

And the testing I was doing is what I normally do with my phone so its a good test for me and much better battery life on my 2.2 Froyo build. I figured that I would do the same things with the Froyo/GB builds that I normally do with my phone to compare the battery life.
[Vibrant Android Development] nickmcminn60:
Thoses are samsung codes but miui has a few, let me see if I can dig them up

2. Type *#*#4636#*#* on phone dial pad, select phone information, then scroll down to selection box, change set preferred network type to WCDMA only. Switch phone to airplane mode, then switch airplane off. (WARNING! THIS MAY CAUSE PROBLEMS WITH DATA CONNECTION! - REPEAT STEP - BUT INSTEAD REVERT BACK TO GSM/CDMA auto (PRL) IF YOU ENCOUNTER PROBLEMS)
[Vibrant Android Development] jrongi1:
As nick said gb roms for Vibrant are bata. We are getting great standby life but if you are heavy user you are not going to see battery life like froyo. One other thing is this rom likes a day and a few reboots to settle in. If you flash and go the battery suffers.

Battery Life (:

Hey nick dropping by to show some love! I love this rom because it's so customizable! This is my battery life of my OWN regular day use of my phone. Just wondering if I upgrade to the current version available if you think I'll get better battery than 15h.

Currently on MIUI Revamped SS-5 Special Edition

Modem KA7

Kernel Stock MIUI Kernel

Thanks again I very much appreciate your work on the Vibrant. :cool:
[Vibrant Android Development] apicia:
I would like a louder speaker volume. I use my speaker for most of my voice calls and also navigation when in the car mount. Maybe a secret code to get into volumes? Didn't one of the Lithiums increase the volume (to where people actually turned down the volume)? That would be icing on the cake.
[Vibrant Android Development] nickmcminn60:
Yes SS-12.0 has best battery (for most) If you use the kernel that I integraded into it (NEO V17 r16)
[Vibrant Android Development] M5devil:
I second and third that!
[Vibrant Android Development] viralbug:
I'm on Revamped SS 12 and getting really great battery life! :D

A very smooth rom and the Neo kernel is really sweet.

There's one annoying issue I have though. Although the LG keyboard is lovely, it seems there is no key for apostrophe('). It has the reversed apostrophe and reversed quotation mark.

While typing an SMS, a single reverse apostrophe takes up many characters and making even a small text go upto 3 messages. The alternative is to use the word suggestion given by the LG keyboard which has the apostrophe required in the word, but I prefer typing out all my words.

Also, I know this isn't a problem with Revamped, but with MIUI itself, but there's no way I can select which group of contacts I want to be visible in contacts list. I wish MIUI can include that in their next updates.

Anybody know how to get my music work... i have all my mp3 in the music folder in the external SD card... couldn't find where u can choose the music folder... help thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] apicia:
Download a music player app from the market...
[Vibrant Android Development] davidisflash:
I like poweramp as it has the nice equalizer. I have also purchased Voodoo Control Plus in the past.

With the MIUI roms like these (mainly the SS), can you guys recommend your best combinations of settings for Voodoo Control, DSP Manager, and your music player, for in-car use? It seems anytime I want heavy base, the sounds blend with the vocals...looking for the crispest sound on MIUI. Should I ditch both Voodoo Control and DSPManager?

Still can not get my music from the external SD card into the music library

But if i go to file play a single file the song is work.... any help get this folder to my library play list thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] noah1017:
WAIIIIT!!

before going and getting any additional apps for music players

FIRST

In MIUI music app hit Menu/refresh then give it about 5-10 minutes (mine may be longer since I have a 32g sd card and 1400 songs, 2 movies, 8 show episodes and some music videos)

MUST BE DONE PRETTY MUCH EACH BOOT

If that wont work for whatever reason then if you NEED another music player download Ubermusic. it has the best controls and rotation with everything. metro skin makes it look nice and neat as its already very windows phone 7ish in its ui.

Then in Ubermusic hit Menu/settings/ click scan SD card.

Again give it some time, hit the home button and play with something else for a few minutes and

voila

your music should be visible now in both players whenever you do a rescan of either.

i always make a "refresh" and load all musics from external sd card

To switch to neo kernel, its only flash on recovery mode?

Does wipe if I flash this from last version?
[Vibrant Android Development] nickmcminn60:
NO Wipe Method for those with balls

You can try to just wipe dalvik and cache partition and FORMAT system, flash and fix permissions. IF not then full wipe. I always recommend a full wipe to cover my a$$. If you already have any of the apps in the list in the OP that YOU have downloaded, just uninstall them before attempting and..........Make a Nandroid! Before trying (unless you already have one) If you try to uninstall an app and it says it cant because it is a system app, don't sweat it, it will get overwritten.

[Vibrant Android Development] davidisflash:
Just migrated to SS-13. So far so good.

SS-12, when compared to Lithium V3.1, didn't give me any notable sound improvement though battery was improved (I looked at the signature of one of the recent posters in regards to using monitoring tools for battery, excellent guide! It's definitely always the case for me that "system processes" use the most CPU time, usually around 2.x%, when the device "should" be sleeping)

I haven't really gotten an answer though regarding Voodoo Control Plus / DSP Manager and MIUI SS. Since the kernel Nick provides already has Voodoo support, does that mean I shouldn't even install the paid Voodoo Control Plus app? I tried ditching it and using DSP Manager instead, but not getting the clarity I want when hearing music in the car. Just using a radioshack stereo cable, car has some nice Bose speakers. I think on SS-9 or something with glitch (can't remember which one, sorry), sound quality seemed to be awesome "out of the box" but haven't seen it that good yet.

Any advice would be great. I also tried a few other music players, nothing so far is as good as Poweramp's equalizer for me (Poweramp sounds better than stock music but still would like better).

...next silly question!

Next sill... wait, that's actually a reasonable question. There's no one-button way to sort apps when they're on the home screen, but MIUI Launcher is designed with the intention of you putting those apps into various folders from which you can then sort them by various methods including alphabetical, by use, etc.

That's more like it! Next silly question!

Of course we can, because we all own the same car with the same acoustics as you do, and thus we... oh wait.

Please do the following.

1) Read the original post

2) Re-read the original post

3) Confirm you can read and understand English

4) Re-read the original post again

5) Log onto Amazon.com and order some razors.

6) Wait by the door for the razors to arrive.

7) When said razors arrive, take them into the bathroom.

8) Fill the tub with warm water so as not to leave a mess for the cleaning lady.

Next silly question!

Dude, you want us to help you figure out what settings sound best in YOUR car. Sorry, but my patience is wearing thin these days when so many questions can be answered by reading basic information. I'll give you a hint: Read up on the Voodoo Control App. It's on the Market.

Next silly question!
[Vibrant Android Development] Venal_System:
Yes yes and yes. To everyone wanting to either sort apps or have an app drawer.........Long press a blank spot on any screen you see. Little list of things to add to home screen. Pick folder, drag to screen, release. Now click on it. Left hand corner there is an piece of paper w/pen looking icon.....click it. Name the folder App Drawer, underwear drawer, sock drawer. (Seems like 2.2 conditioned peeps to enjoy said drawer.) Now place all apps you desire inyour drawer. You now select the way you want previously mentioned drawer(folder) organized!

Your choice, alphabetically, by frequently used, maybe by size. I don't use the third one so I maybe wrong on that one. Congratulations you now have an app drawer on Miui. Or atleast some organization to your apps. I use diff. folders named the appropriate thing according to contents. Then organize how I want depending on what I want. Welcome to Miui and folders, where unlike most app drawers that offer limited configurations.
