Though I really love CM and been using it on my late Desire, my battery life was... not so good. I couldn't trace down the wakelocks to a specific bad coded app, so my conclusion was that I should change rom. Also it really got way too hot in 3d, so I had to give a chance to another ASOP ROM, tried Oxygen and this really solved some things out.

Not perfect, but at least I get a good battery life improvment.

Will be back to nightlies in a while of course, as things will get better.

Thanks CM team for your efforts!

Got to Settings>About>Battery usage>klick on the diagram at the top.

Then you get a bigger diagram with bars in the bottom half. There you can see active and screen on. The phone should not be active when the screen is off. So in an ideal case the two bars should be identical. But it is normal when the phone wakes up for a few secs if some app is syncing in background etc.

I've asked a similar question before on the SGS1 thread and also on this thread, I really never got a solid answer on whats the real benefit, with the SGS1 performance wise was either same or worse in most cases.

Each custom ROM has some sort of forte, we just need to give a release version a try for a few days to see any benefits ( if there are any ) I dont mean this to be a hostile comment.

benefits is you can always use a newest android version.

Hi there, installed CM yesterday, first time android user! Everything is SO good and smooth it makes me shiver :)) One question though - I can't find a way to set menu and back keys' lights to stay off forever. i could swear there was such an option on stock and I think this is android thing, not samsung. Any ideas? ^^
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codeworkx:
cm7 on sgs1 has a much improved performace compared to stock roms.

also cm7 on sgs2 seems to be much more performant than stock roms.

CM7 is free of bloatware, aospish, has a lot of cool features, you can easily modify nearly everything you need and want without having to modify files on your phone, it gets new features and updates as fast as possible, has a great community and so on...

it's a rom for pro users, not for everyone.

normal users are using windows, pros are using linux. ;-)

What's the chances of getting rid of the '3G <-> H' dropout issue and hacking the modem firmware to connect to the fastest available speed and stay on it until it's either turned off or loses the signal? You know, like every other phone I have owned does. This connection timeout is the number one issue with this phone and renders the non-wifi browsing experience to be worse than my 20 month old HD2. It really winds me up and CM7 fixing this at some point would be superb. I would gladly take any battery hit it entails.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ungrateful Basta:
Googled a little bit. Seems like the thing I'm looking for is called soft keys backlight timeout and I read somewhere that samsung was kinda responsible for that or someone could have written an app. My conclusion is that this stuff is dependant on CM team. Am I right?

2) DSP manager FCs when i choose the bass boost option. But once i open it again i can see the checkbox checked.

3)No BLN Support, Bluetooth audio and FM radio.( Known items)
