Brightness set at its minimum
[Galaxy S II General] Bonestack:
Okay. I'll get about 5&1/2h-6h screen on time with internet browsing (wifi), is it good? Can post screenshots if wanted...

Should I make a test with full brightness and screen on but no usage? Got litening 6.0 with speedmod t27. Wouldn't mind contributing.
[Galaxy S II General] m2smoe:
I think that sounds about average. I don't think no internet usage will change things all that much. Feel free to contribute if you like!
[Galaxy S II General] Bonestack:
Okay thanks. I could compare my future roms & kernels with about the same usage (speedmod t27 is already covered anyway) and post the results. Don't wanna hurt my screen with white background tests ;(
[Galaxy S II General] m2smoe:
Reporting in, now with screen ON time at 3h15mins, 70% battery left. Looks like about 10% an hour and steady.
[Galaxy S II General] m444266:
thanks for the corrections and info guys.. just to make it simple, I just flashed the kernel and ran the test without tweaking anything else.. sorry for the misunderstanding..

I'll still stick to my assumption that if you undervolt (if possible) then it would entail that you'll get more time.
[Galaxy S II General] m444266:
@Bone you wan't to try screen off with Stability test running on background instead? :)

ANYWHOOO.. how would i know if a kernel is UV'ed or not?
[Galaxy S II General] Lenunited:
Hey man what theme you using, sorry i know its off topic.. also great tips for undervolting/uc .
[Galaxy S II General] m2smoe:
That's a theme called GalaxyBlue available in LeoMar's Revolution ROM Kitchen App.

Reporting in: 4h10mins, 64% battery left. Going to EASILY pass 6h.
[Galaxy S II General] freaked:
Sorry for asking. Wich is your rom and kernel?
[Galaxy S II General] Lenunited:
In his signature.

Also do you use screen filter?
[Galaxy S II General] m2smoe:
Yes my ROM/kernel are in my signature.

What do you mean, screen filter?

Reporting in with screenshots this time: 5h screen ON time, 58% battery. :)
[Galaxy S II General] ronni.rasmussen:
@m2smoe That's impressive! What modem are you using?

Think i might give LeoMar75 a shot :)
[Galaxy S II General] m444266:
Excel file uploaded

Great! nice battLife. Thanks m2smoe for sharing.. after that test, mind if you do it again with a different kernel with same voltage setting if possible. That would be awesome!:D

ANYWHOOO.. I uploaded a simple Excel file that would help estimate the time of battery. you can set your current battLevel, input the battLevel you want to estimate and will give you how long and what time it will reach that level. you need input tho from any battery monitoring app you have for the current estimates. I used Battery Monitor Widget app's calculated average. Anyway you can just look at it and you'll most likely get what it does.
[Galaxy S II General] kungvn:
You set display brightness minimum and set screen always on? And you do not do anything with your phone at all, right?

I can see your battery usages : Android os :2%

: Internet 2%

: not call, nothing.

That is not amazing battery.

A number of people have told you: never seen anyone use 6 hours+ because they ACTUALLY use. ( video, capture, call, Internet..v...vv)

Correct me if I'm wrong.

sr my bad english :D
[Galaxy S II General] m2smoe:
That's wrong. I have WIFI always on, Gmail and various weather widgets synching every half hour, and I've been browsing the web, posting on forums here and there. I've also downloaded and installed a couple of apps. I haven't played games, placed calls, listened to music or watched videos, however. It is pretty much average use for me. I'm also pretty sure that the battery level would be higher if I had made calls, as the screen turns off during calls, and that's what sucks the most juice.

So yeah, its not ALOT of use, but still enough to be considered average (WIFI has not been turned off for the whole time the phone has been on). As for what people have told me, it's that 6 hours of SCREEN ON is impossible. I just proved it wasn't. Obviously, if you're playing a video game for hours, I don't know how long the battery will last, nor is it what I'm trying to find out. The whole point of this test is to see if, with my average use and display always on, the battery can last more than 6 hours. It can.

No sorry I won't do another test with another Kernel. The differences between each kernel in terms of battery life is not that big anyway, if UV/OC settings are the same for each.

Reporting in: 5h51mins screen ON, 50% battery left. I will easily break 6h, and probably, easily break 10 hours with the screen ON the whole time.

I'm going to bed however, so I will turn screen always on off while I'm sleeping, and will continue the test tomorrow from the time I wake up, as I should only lose about 5-10% battery during the night and should still have plenty enough left to break 10 hours screen time on :)

edit: I am using Modem XXKH3.
[Galaxy S II General] kungvn:
IMPORTAN : MAX BRIGHTNESS SCREEN. :D WIFI ON

Criskelo v14. Jeffrey 3.0.

[Galaxy S II General] m2smoe:
That's nice, but it's charging, and it doesn't show screen ON time.

Reporting in last time before bed: 6h 45m screen ON, 42% battery left.

6+ hours screen ON, no recharging, as promised.
[Galaxy S II General] jangomango:
What rom and kernal is that bro?
[Galaxy S II General] TechSilver13:
I am seeing my battery life right now. I am running SensatioN 1.5 and RAGEmod Kernal v1 T27 KH3 Modem. I am using the same set up as the original poster. I am OC'd to 1.4GHz @ 1050mV. We shall see in a couple hours how good my battery life is.
[Galaxy S II General] m444266:
nice looking graph btw. pretty linear ~ constant usage..

if not a kernel change, how about another ROM with the same settings? or modem? or something else.. background? anything that you think will greatly affect the battLife if changed. because we can't really compare your results with any of ours(for now). but I do agree it's possible to go beyond 10 hrs with average usage and screen on always. still have a lot of things that can affect the battery like what's on screen, generally dark or light themes. Thank you still!
[Galaxy S II General] m444266:
Lulz Kernel Build 14 results out

Done with Lulz Kernel Build 14.. you may see results in 1st post.

Next: Ninphetamine 2.0.2
[Galaxy S II General] sonrobby:
What is the better ROM for bettery life? Can u recomend me plz.
[Galaxy S II General] TechSilver13:
there is no sure fire way to know which is the best unless we had a single person test them all under the same conditions which would take forever considering different ROMs, kernels, and modem are in the equation. I can personally recommend SensatioN and Lite'ning ROM (there are many posts saying which has the best battery life, I didnt have a problem with 6.1 as long as you do a complete wipe of your phone). So either of those two are amazing. I've heard wonderful things about Cognition as well but I havent tried it YET.
[Galaxy S II General] goldbergx:
Ah people would always claim that you use some kind of super charger ;)
[Galaxy S II General] kungvn:
Batista, LeoMar, Criskelo are ngang nhau. :D:D:D
[Galaxy S II General] rinoa19:
Rom: LR 5.0

Modem: KG6

Kernel: Speedmod t27

...pretty good...battery life 's better after several cycle charge...
[Galaxy S II General] pileot:
you CAN, however, test various kernels under the same ROM and see which provides the best results, which will tell you the best kernel for battery life. Then you can test each Rom under that kernel and check results. Many people are testing modems on their own and theres no way i know of to properly test them (as there are too many variables, interference, signal strength, weather) however as the list of modems grows there will be a general consensus as to which is best.

If there are some kernels / roms that are intended to work together you can test those against the best combo above.

And i 100% agree each test should be done under the same phone and same conditions, even the same battery and same (slow) charge. Having multiple people test

In other news:

DAY 2! The testing continues.

Thanks pileot

really appreciate your contribution! Keep it up man!

Can you benchmark the RAGEmod T27 kernel? I'm very interested in the results of this one...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1229128&highlight=RAGEmod
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
Thanks. That's what I was talking about. I am impressed by your stats.

Now I am gonna do the same test with my stock setting first. But before that I've some questions, I'd like to have answers,

1- You tested for continuous 6 hours, the screen was on, but it is not possible for me to keep doing something for 6 hours, so if I just let it for 6 hours for testing is there any chance that the screen will be damaged?

2- I can see in your siggy that you are Undervolted your CPU. But did you also Underclock it? I mean when you ran those tests at what speed were you? 1200 MHz or less?

And also provide the other settings you are using in SetCPU, Governers and clock rates etc..

I'll wait for the reply, to start my testing ;)

Regards.
[Galaxy S II General] Pfeffernuss:
Here you go ;)
[Galaxy S II General] TimmehPS3:
Holy ****. Which ROM with which kernel (undervolted? settings plz.) are you running?

Deel het met ons, voor volk en vaderland! :P
[Galaxy S II General] iwang:
I tried t27 yesterday, quite good, now trying t26 for comparison. On stock rom.
[Galaxy S II General] kungvn:
RAGEmod-v2-T27 is good kernel:D
[Galaxy S II General] Lenunited:
Dude what settings and rom/kernel you using.

Thats awsome results.
[Galaxy S II General] m2smoe:
I dont think ROMs or modems will greatly affect the battery life, honestly, unless you use special features like BLN (I dont). What makes the whole difference is undervolting and setting profiles in setCPU, and making sure that the apps you run in the background do not use much CPU. Background might be worth testing, I'm pretty sure a pure white background will not help battery life.

Well, the realistic ones will know I don't lol. Anyway I'm not the only one breaking 6+h in this topic ;)

1- If your brightness is at the minimum, I don't think so. My phone never got hot during those 6-7 hours.

2- I have setCPU main profile set to: On Demand, 200Mhz-1400Mhz. To be fair, while testing, I'm pretty sure the CPU was between 200 and 800Mhz, very rarely higher (I didn't actually check).

My setCPU settings are in my signature, clockrates + voltages, and I have only one custom profile: Sleep, Conservative, 200-500Mhz.

Reporting in: after a night's sleep, I have 30% battery left, 7h screen ON time, 14h30mins total time on. I'm going to stop the test here for now, I might do another more serious one to try to beat 10 hours screen ON time in the future.
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
Alright. I have started the test already. Just over 2 hours now. Mostly playing Youtube videos.

So you didn't underclock your CPU below 1200 MHz, right?

Regards.
[Galaxy S II General] m2smoe:
No, in fact I overclocked to 1400Mhz.
[Galaxy S II General] Bonestack:
Yes I can :) First I'll do a test with my settings, then disable juicedefender and then uv with setcpu.

If those apps extend batterylife by much I'll keep them running and switch modem or kernel.

Will post results here :)

Oh and what stability test should I use? I haven't got setcpu installed right now for the test so I'd like to use another one.
[Galaxy S II General] abhi021:
I got done with cycle of charging - discharging - charging after getting back from Lt.6.1 - 4.2 - back to Lt6.1 but with nin.2.0.2. Testing the Lt.6.1 with ninphetamine 2.0.2 Compared to Lt.4.2, 6.1 feels a lot smoother so back on it.

Display is on with the toggle, wifi on, running 1.2Ghz with 1175mv, juice defender (free).

Had a call in between the test for 1 min as forgot to put the proximity sensor off.

However result wise consumed 8% of the the battery in 1st hour with brightness set to max.

Below are some images. Will wait for the battery to go down to 50% and post the results. I feel ninphetamine 2.0.2 still does much better job compared to higher version.

As I am typing battery is down to 88% with 1h 32min on display.
[Galaxy S II General] Lenunited:
m2smoe : What tweaks did you install from Leo's rom kitchen?
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
What do you mean by 'display is on with toggle'?

Getting confused on what should I run for testing!

Just over 3 hours and counting......
[Galaxy S II General] m2smoe:
Tweaks installed are:

Adv Block Patch v1

Decrease HomeButton Lag

Browser - UserAgent Dialog

Potatoman Silent Camera

FuguTweaks Mod

New Camera Mod
[Galaxy S II General] abhi021:
You could download "no screen off" app from the market. that could help in keep the screen on. You could also use the Flashlight app where you have option to use screen as a torch with complete white display and keeps the screen on. However cpu usage could be slight higher with this app.
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
Thanks, I already downloaded Screen on widget and its doing the purpose. But I actually asked what should I do in the meantime? I heard keeping a same screen could damage/burn the display, so I continuously have to do something to change the screen, which is boring. Anyway, not long to go...
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
Uff, this PITA test is done.

View attachment 701138View attachment 701140View attachment 701141

So basically with Stock KF3 firmware and CF root one will get max 6 hours 30 mins of Screen On time. This is nowhere near 9 h 30 mins, so I will definitely change kernel and do some voltage tweaks with SetCPU. But the thing is which kernel should I use, latest Ninphetamine or else?

Hello everyone,

Is there any way (a registry hack, I guess) to disable vibrate when dialling numbers using the phone keypad? I have not been able to find it anywhere yet. Those short vibrations are -- in my opinion -- useless and only drain the battery...

Any help would be much appreciated.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nvx2004:
Dear Hakim,

I am afraid that the mentioned registry hack, i.e.:

is of no use to me, because the string "VibrationEnabled" has already been present and held the value of zero. I believe this disables vibration related to the usual keyboard, not the phone keypad I am concerned with. :(

Anyway, thank you for your response.

Have a nice day,

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TD2IN:
I think there is no hardware keyboard in any variant of Diamond2. Are you sure it has one?

If you are looking for onscreen keypad vibration: Go to settings tab - personalize - Vibration: and you have check box to de-select.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nvx2004:
Dear TD2IN,

You are right, there is no HW keyboard in Diamond2. However, there are several software keyboards, e.g. the usual QWERTY one (a "full" keyboard) or the phone keypad (similar to keypads on older cell phones with letters "a", "b" and "c" on 2, letters "d", "e" and "f" on 3, etc.). Disabling vibration upon pressing a key on the QWERTY software keyboard is easy and can be done (as you wrote) in Settings -> Personal -> Input -> ...

However, I am concerned with disabling vibration for the phone keypad (used primarily for entering phone numbers in the phone application) which cannot be done at the same place as disabling vibration for the QWERTY keyboard.

Have a great day. :)

[Desire Android Development] JeckyllHavok:
Hi there,

today i would like to introduce the new CygateUmbrella Rom Series.

Main Reason for the rom was the fact that i love sense 3 but since Baadnewz discontinued the nightly development there were no real alternatives and the pure sense 3 roms like Pyramid are to slow for me.

UPDATED Version based on InsertCoin 1.1.2 Stable

Changes to InsertCoin:

Added Sense 3.0 / removed conflicting Sense 2 apks

Andrev OC overclocking(wake min: 245000 / max: 1113600 ondemand | sleep min: 245000 sleep max: 576000 conservative)

Theming

new boot animation + sound

(more to come in an update in the next days)

cm7 hboot for now stock will come tomorrow

My setup (very fast and speedy experience:

Ext 4 Recovery

CM7r2 hboot

16gb class 6 micro sd with 1024 mb ext 4 / 348mb ext 4 rest fat 32

I haven't tried to go straight vom v 0.1 to 0.2 so i recommend a full whipe

Here it is:

cygate.org/HTCDesire/CygateUmbrellav2.zip

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Due to that is the first try in Rom Cooking since Donut days on HTC TytN II ive taken Insert Coin stable 1.1.1 from baadnewz as base.

Here's what i changed in the rom:

-Added black themed gmail

-Added JUWE11 RAM optimization Script

-Added andrev_oc (wake min: 245000 / max: 1113600 ondemand | sleep min: 245000 sleep max: 545000 conservative)

-removed Rosie and added back sense 3.0 Rosie

-a little Resident Evil Themeing (more to come)

-updated GMaps

-added Sony panorama Cam

-and mor i forgot

-added new market, black version

-added GooglePlus

Installation:

You need CM7 hboot and 1 ext 4 partition (i use 1024mb) / Or stock hboot and one ext 4 partition

If you come from InsertCoin 1.1.1 stable no wipe SHOULD be needed, all others do a complete wipe and install as usual

Known Bugs:

none - you tell me

Screenshoots:

Planed for next Version:

More theming, complete own base

(if someone is good in themeing and wants a cool looking SciFi like rom please contact me)

Download:

http://cygate.org/HTCDesire/CygateUmbrellav1stock.zip

bootanimation (the one included isn't working damn WinRar)

http://cygate.org/HTCDesire/bootanimation.zip

Just adb push to /data/local (it's a cool one, hehehe...)

Thanks:

baadnewz, seo, snq, diamondback2010, Juwe11, Sybregunne, coolexe, robocik, and sorry if i forget someone.
