not true, you dont have to be signed into Google talk, so long as your Google account is synced with the phone and have the correct account selected in market (Menu>Accounts) then it should work fine, if not Wipe the Market Cache in Application settings

That's crazy! I have never gotten my screen-on time over 4 hours.... Wtf :-D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ayk33:
why do u guys complain about battery life? Should it be 4 days like our first mobile phones :) Mine is great for a great technology like samsung galaxy s2. It's been 9 hours until i plugged out and it's 93% now. so great for that screen and processor???
[Galaxy S II Android Development] betadan:
DG i gotta hand it to you, you make a sweet ROM. I have been on the same charge for the last 2 Days, 14 hours and i still have 31% battery left, i am using 1.31 and was using 1.20 when i started. Also thanks for the tip on juice defender.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] lilfellabob:
Yeah, I would like to know what set-up you have there... Like stock rom? any battery saving apps or things you have done to your phone or do when using it (besides what you have mentioned obviously). That is crazy good life..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kbiz90:
Because battery life matters. Personally, I want to understand the major variables that contribute to battery drain and control them so I maximize battery life given my normal usage. I'm not looking for variables that increase battery life by one percent. I'm looking for variables that you can set-and-forget which significantly increase battery life. What custom ROM you choose and what version you choose are two significant variables.

Oh dear, still running 1.30, flashed the latest Ninphetamine-2.0.2 last night,took off SepCPU from my phone as a test and charged the phone to 100%, turned the phone on at 8.46 this morning,medium Internet use including some Wi-Fi and 15 mins gaming,2 calls and 2 texts and im currently at 36% after 6h 44m which is terrible IMO, Android OS is at 18%, ill report back when the battery drains but it's looking likely it'll drain before midnight tonight.

It'll be time to go back to 1.15 for me........

1.31 battery time is better IMO. Using setcpu to set it to 500 mgh when screen is of.

I miss the battery mode and transitions from 1.15 . The transitions make everything look faster! Anyone knows how to get them back?

Battery drain

Running 1.31 with Juice defender.. custom modding to my taste. Have Wifi on 14-15 hours per day , both in the office and at home. Phone reception in the office is horrendous (thank you AT&T for that) so phone needs quite some juice to connect to a tower. All that made my expectation of full day's charge pretty low.

I have a car cradle/charger si I start my day at the office door with 100%, and I charge another 30 minutes on the way home. From 7:30AM till about midnight, under the said conditions I don't need to charge. I end the day with 10% battery or so. I have 2 hours screen on, two pushed email accounts, stocks, weather, 30 text messeges , occasional 5 minutes calls..

Over all since 2.3.4 showed up in XDA - I do not see any major difference between cognition 1.15 to 1.31 they are all fair.

Would I like to get a 2 days worth of battery? Sure, but this is a non realistic request. The battery is so thin and light, I am amazed we even get a full day worth.. So for the noobs/whiners - if you have not been on 2.3.3 OS - you have no clue how bad it can be... I had 6-9 hours before, now 14-15. I don't expect is to be 48 hours, unless phone is in stand-by , untouched, unused.. wait.. why do I need to haveb a $700 device if it is only in stand by ? :)

WHAT DO YOU DO MEN>>>>& HOW DO YOU DO IT!:)

I can't figure it out how it is so different from one user to another & on the same rom?:confused:

My Battery is perfect on IDEL time(night) , and dropping histericly one day use :6% / hour

on 1.07 it was 1.5% on day time& work

did you setup your battery on a special way ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] chris2busy:
short answer : you can't , on free version..you have to get the paid one to do so...

And in all honesty, if you get good idle drain, don't bother paying,it will not change much..Android battery problems have always been due to screen consumption (most other phones do, but others like iphone 4 can get as much as a whooping 10+ hours screen on time).

[Galaxy S II Android Development] jonny68:
OK reporting back with battery life again with version 1.30 and the latest Ninphetamine-2.0.2 Kernel and im astounded and extremely disappointed with the battery life, i froze SetCPU as an experiment to see if it made any difference it certainly does look as it it has made some differnece, previously i was underclocked, min 200 - max 800 -Governor - One Demand set on boot.

I turned my phone on at 08.46am this morning, throughout the day medium Internet usage with Wi-Fi on for about 15/20 mins and watching some news online for about 5 mins, about 15 mins playing gameloft games, about 5 calls and 3 texts,about 1 hour of music,that is basically my complete usage in a nutshell and you can see my battery life:confused:each time it's gone down from version 1.15 so there can be no doubt in my mind having tested every version up to 1.30 that battery life for me has gotten worse, in version 1.15 i had the best, i didn't properly test 1.13 but by all accounts judging by comments of various different people battery life was good in that version.

So to conclude i am going to go back to version 1.15 for now, i may try out another ROM or two but i really like this ROM and DG has done a great deal but unfortunately battery life has not gotten better.

screenshots below..:confused:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] spradling:
Just updated from 1.15 to 1.31, seems great! Feels snappier! I'll report on battery later.

CRT animation fixed - Great! I notice the difference, much nicer now.

Removed overscroll glow - Excellent, I much prefer the bounce.

KG3 and Ninphetamine-2.0.2 - Excellent, probably why it feels snappier.

Just one question, does anybody have CircleBattery Mod for 1.31? The latest I downloaded is: Circle_Batt_Cognition.1.15, can I still flash that one? TIA

and thanks again DG for an excellent ROM!!! :D

[Galaxy S II Android Development] peterperfect:
Just flashed 1.31 and just looks smooth and fast. I really like bounce! Lets battery test. Im using jd ultimate customized for push, autokiller memory optimized profile and setcpu for underclocking while screens is off. Maybe some undervolting soon :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tbong777:
If you need data always on push notifications Juice defender will still help but not as much as it turns off data. But can be customized for push

. Mine is set to to turn on data for 30 secs every 15 minutes There is nothing I need to respond to immediately re: data that a phone call would not better for if someone really needs to get an immediate response. You can set it to update for 30 seconds every 5 minutes and save a lot of juice. You can set the schedule to anything you want. such as 30 secs on every 5 minutes. You can set peak times and off times. Its pretty detailed. (Juice Ultimate) I don't know how much the free app allows. You can set WiFi advanced settings such as scanning.

That said I do not use Juice Defender daily as I don't need more than 10 hours of battery life except when I expect heavy use like on a flight and I still carry extra batteries, For daily use 10-14 hours of up time is more than enough. I have yet to run out before I charge it every night usually with 20-30% left.

Juice defender on "balanced" settings gives me 9.5 hours with 70% left. Its pretty good in that respect. When I don;t use JD, my social apps are set to update every two hours if I don't manually update them and use one Gmail push address and do not sync another except manually.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] 0355:
Ok,

done some tests on Cog_S2 1.15, Screen off in 30 secs, Weather Widget, ADW Ex, Google Search, Gmail, Dropbox (always on):

Light to moderate usage (many texts, no calls, very little web surfing and a couple of shots with camera, some navigation with Sygic and compass, and so on...).

Moderate usage (over 100 texts, Lot of Skype IMs, WiFi, 3 tracks on Sygic, a full Box of levels in Cut The Rope, and so on...)

This is WEIRD!!! You can clearly see that battery ramped UP in at least two periods (in particular this night while sleeping) and I didn't charged it, just leaved on the living room table...

Maybe a wrong data collection from battery monitoring software? I just don't understand...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] thegr8anand:

Hi, I have to say an dubious about some of these battery life claims, didnt use my phone at all for 16 hours overnight with screen off and I lost 50% battery. I have set cpu installed which sets my clock at 800 when the screen is off, disabled fast dorm and installed juice defender. I didnt stop data but I have updates all turned off including location, news etc.

Any ideas whay is going on here?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ebliss:
Your phone is awake for about 2/3 of the 15hours even when the screen is off. Search for betterbatterystats, download it and use it to identify what app is responsible.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] quakermaas:
SetCPU doesn't set your CPU to 800 with screen off, you would have to set that, but I have no idea why you would want to do that.

I am not surprised you lost 50%

If you didn't set SetCPU up that way, then you have a problem.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] quakermaas:
Galaxy S II has a panorama mode in the camera app, what am I missing ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] da.trute:
eh?, isnt that exactly what setCPU does?, you create a profile which drops your CPU to a specified speed in a particular instance, i.e when I turn my screen off, my cpu drops from 1.2 to 800.....?

Bug on VPN connection?

anyone else having problems establishing a VPN connection? On wifi it works fine, but on gprs when I try to connect my phone reboots immediately.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] da.trute:
indeed it does, it works pretty well to. SETTINGS: SHOOTING MODE
[Galaxy S II Android Development] quakermaas:
No. Your phone will do that by its self and you are stopping the phone from going into deep sleep mode.

Normally the phone will go to 200 with screen off, and then go into deep sleep mode automatically , you are preventing this from happening, by setting a profile with CPU at 800 with screen off.

The only thing I use SetCPU for, is undervolt and sometimes I would lock it to 1600 for benchmarks.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Timpppa:
Clear cache.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] da.trute:
i see, I'll take you word for that even though I was told otherwise, I might as well remove set cpu then as I never overclock.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ebliss:
install an app called cpu spy and see if your device goes into deep sleep.

Edit: I set the setCPU profile to 800mhz min and max on screen off and turned off the screen. After 10 mins, I used cpu spy to check. Well, the device was in deep sleep and not locked in the 800mhz. So, you can go ahead and test it yourself.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] da.trute:
I am convinced I have a bug here though, just turned data off and put my phone in plane mode, "cell standby" standby is user 27%, Android is only using 7% itself.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] ebliss:
have you tried going to Menu -> Settings -> Location and Security and disable both options?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] quakermaas:
As with all overclocking/undervolting , you do so at your own risk.

But it should be safe to under-volt at all default(200-1200) clocks, I think the worst that can happen is freeze/reboot.

Also all CPUs will have different stability margins, they are not all made equal.

These are not my final setting, but showing good results (less heat) and stable.

I don't apply the setting at boot automatically(boots with default voltages), in case they are not 100% stable.
