Hi,

Same phone and ROM, same problem.

Keep us updated!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] miro666:
Hmm, I have heard Galaxian kernel is battery sucker too...

Regards
[Galaxy S I9000 General] $omator:
in short words - bull**** :)

i have not touched (freezed/deleted) any app

yet still i have not noticed a drain, any kind of drain

let him determine what app is causing the 100% cpu usage first

prior to advising him to freeze or delete anything - that is wise you have to agree

also localization service would not provide such high cu usage

think please
[Galaxy S I9000 General] karmoss:
Hi,

It might be facebook 1.7.1. There are several complaining comments that "upload manager" process is running in the background and prevents phone from going into deep sleep mode.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] $omator:
i got data connection active all the time with all apps syncing (gmail, twitter, facebook)

and phone got no problem sleepin =)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] got-petrol:
i think you should go out and do some thing better with your life then watching what a battery uses
[Galaxy S I9000 General] $omator:
i think its a waste of space to quote WHALE post :)

and well if he got battery drained overnight it is important to determine why

it should not happend
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Geryatrix:
Just a quick question, where is the phone when you are in the car? I have noticed that if I keep my phone in my trouser pocket while driving, I loose signal frequently, shown on Bluetooth unit, and over a 3hour journey I can loose 30% battery, but if I put the phone in my shirt pocket I do not loose signal and my battery loss is about 20%.

My theory is that the phone signal finds it easier to penetrate the glass windows of the car rather that the metalwork.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] tinsukE:
Similarly to Geryatrix, when I leave my phone beside my bed (=~~, best place for alarm), my battery drains because the phone stays with a very low network signal and keeps searching for better antennas, I guess. But then at "Battery Usage" I could see that "Cell Standby" was eating my bat, not the "Android System".
[Galaxy S I9000 General] $omator:
battery drains from wifi staying connected in idle state - thats a bug in my opinion from samsung - it should not use such ammount of energy

data connection in idle is almost unnoticable in battery use
[Galaxy S I9000 General] karmoss:
When I had facebook 1.7.1 installed, "Android System" was consuming 20% battery.

After I uninstalled facebook 1.7.1 and the problem is gone, "Android System is back

to normal, about 4%.

I think you should learn not to quote an entire long message for the sake of making 1 stupid remark :D

Start post will be updated in a few minutes with some new information.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] $omator:
seems like one of apps you use is trying to connect somewhere

have you made bugreport - i think you will find the culprit there
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Kurre:
Have you tried disabling fast dormancy? Maybe these wakelocks are caused by incompatible 3g cell.

Use *#*#9900#*#* to find option to disable it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] wingg:
No comment...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] $omator:
and what is your problem to start oftop whining?

use report button if you do not like my post or tone of it

and freezing/deleting apps is not and never will be an issue solver

system works perfect with none of stock apps touched

using memory killers and altering system with such freeze options

is on the other hand source of 9 on 10 problems
[Galaxy S I9000 General] pwhooftman:
Hi,

I have opposite experience. Keeping Wifi enabled causes almost no battery drain for me, keeping 3G enabled does big time. My Galaxy Tab 10.1 Wifi version is set to never let the wifi connection sleep, and still battery drains no more than 1% or 2% a day is the tablet is not used.

I tested today with Wifi disabled. Still the Enter Dormancy messages appear each 5 seconds, altough the CPU hit is less. The Fast Dormacy messages seem purely cell-tower related, and wifi-unrelated. The Dormancy messages start as soon as i start moving, and stop when i'm home. I will update the startpost agan tonight.

---------- Post added at 06:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:52 PM ----------

Hi,

I entered this Sysdump menu, the button read ""Enable Fast Dormancy" so i guess that means it was disabled all along. I enabled fast dormancy and will continue to test.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] $omator:
i was poking the fast dormaacy drain back in jva or earlier and that was not the source of drain issues

and galaxy tab is not sgs :) there is some other wifi module there that driver is well ported for gb i guess

i remember nexus one and/or nexuss getting same issue (wifi drain) on gb

that was fixed by some update

enter dormacy aind causing the drain anyways
[Galaxy S I9000 General] $omator:
mate what apps are you using? any live wallpaper, widgets...

wifi scan interval will not cause drain and reducing the frequency will not help much

when youre in the menu it will scan every 5 seconds but when not it will use the value from build.prop ...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Khiraji:
Not meaning to threadjack too badly, but battery life on my Droid 2 just went to poo shortly after updating the Facebook app. Googling doesn't seem to turn up anything conclusive. If you're having this problem, or at least relaying the message that other people out there are, then I'm likely not crazy and there is in fact a bug in 1.7.1.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Brotuck:
I did have simulair drains when i was working in another city.

This drain happened when i enabled gprs / 3G and pushmail.

When i left the city all was back to normal.

So i am guessing the reception there was weird or terrible or both there.

I did not debug this, because it was evident the problems was location based in my case.

Sometimes when i drive to to customers i experience the same thing happening.

Maybe our phones do not like travelling ? :D
[Galaxy S I9000 General] The_Double:
There's your problem.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rocky23:
yup same here,i get a drop in bad signal zone..even some apps use alot of cpu...some even run in sleep mode...so i think every android uses some power.....may b in future some phones may come up wiv better batt life...iam a frequent flasher an iam getting used to this drain prblm:rolleyes:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] $omator:
hmmm never spoted such behaviour during moving betwen cities

maybe polish netwoks are configured by pros :DD
[Galaxy S I9000 General] pwhooftman:
I'm afraid not, i have seen the exact same behaviour with Bluetooth off...

Post #22 updated with this mornings findings
[Galaxy S I9000 General] kikan:
i don't agree with you ....

have same problem and i'm very happy that somebody else is helping us to solve this problem....

when i'm at home my battery can survive tree days , when i'm out it last one day and half...

something happens that battery last even less....

So thank you brotuc, for very good work....

thank you

kikan
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ali_khalid5518:
I think when u leaving ur home or in free time when not using the phone disable background data....coz this uses the cpu too much....just try hope it work.

Go to setting> account and sync > background data > unchk it
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Rassal:
Well guys... i have a motorola milestone running CyanogenMod 7, and i also noticed since i installed facebook 1.7.1 that my battery would drain...

I saw this by going into the battery usage to see that there was facebook on top with 30%, THEN my screen at 25%.

Ever since i removed facebook 1.7.1, i am back at normal battery usage... i re-installed facebook and the drain restarted...

So i can confirm somehow, this is not phone/rom related, it seems to narrow down to facebook 1.7.1 upgrade... running without facebook now... until they acknowledge that thay have a battery drain in their application... it obvious.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] pwhooftman:
Back again, no solution but a drastic one

Hi all,

I've been busy last week, but still continued to try various stuff.

Long Story Short: i haven't found a real cause, so i have taken a more drastic step, i installed the latest nightly CyanogenMod 7 . So far, no CPU jump when moving.

Longer story:

Over the past weeks, i have seen Bluetooth as the cause. Once connected to my carkit, cpu rose to +30% and stayed there. But i have seen numerous times also where it just peaked for a few minutes (syncing the telephone book) and then dropped back to a few%. On the same route..... And i have seen teh same thing with Bluetooth disabled.

Over the past weeks, i have seen LocationServices as the cause. Once enabled and driving, cpu rose to +30% and stayed there. But i have seen numerous times also where it didn't peak, or not as much.

Over the past weeks, i have seen disabling 3G helping tremendously, and the next day it did not...

I have seen Semaphore kernel and Galaxian kernel showing this problem, and the next day not....

I have disabled the Samsung sync services. I have disabled automatisch synchronization., I have tried everything. Turning the phone off does help :-)

The only thing that seems somewhat related is that memory usage seems to rise after a few days without rebooting (more and more Dalvik cleaning messages in the log), which seems to aggrevate the CPU rises when moving.

Sick of it all, i flashed CyanogenMod7 to get rid of any Samsung crap. So far all is well, no cpu spikes during moving. I will keep you posted if thing change.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waynetx383:
I am trying to export my contacts that are stored in the phones memory to a VCF file so that I can import them into a new phone. When I go to the import/export menu in Contacts the only Option it gives me is Send to Namecard. This will create a VCF file but it only contains part of my contact list and not the full list. Did they do away with the options to import and export to SD? Does anyone know of a way to get it to grab all of the contacts?

Thanks for any help you can provide!
[HTC Sensation] pr3cision:
I usually use titanium back up when I have to wipe but i was wondering if there is a way, am I missing something....I don't wanna have to go and add all my acounts again, because that seems to be the only thing that does not restore...suggestions?
[Galaxy 3 General] Blackyx007:
Hello Co galaxy3'ers :p

When I bought a G3, I was far from satisfied with the GPS performance. After upgrading to Froyo, this dissatisfaction was quickly away.

Now I'v flashed a custom ROM many times , and some of these custom ROMs, GPS performance was poor or even completely absent in some ROMs I was satisfied with the GPS performance.

I have to say that I only tested without mobile data disabled because I have a mobile dataplan on my parents subscription (calls and sms are free but mobile data is very expensive but i don't use mobile data because there is always an open hotspot in my area :p )

Now I want to know wich ROM you have flashed and how you find the GPS performance (how many satellites the phone can find and the number of fixed satellites and how fast you get a fix :) )

If you know your previous ROM it would be nice if you also told me :p

So maybe i can make a list of roms with good gps performance :p

Thanks in advance :D

---------- Post added at 10:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:25 PM ----------

Reserved for a list of roms and GPS performance :D
[Galaxy 3 General] mikelete:
Have you tried this? http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=14206731&postcount=4618
[Galaxy 3 General] Blackyx007:
I'v tried almost every setting in the GPSetup2 on the custom roms with a bad GPS performance as well every app like Octy's GPSbooster, fasterfix or gpsessentials :p

I want to know which custom rom has a good gps performance and what the previous rom was (sometimes its better to flash a new custom rom over a specific Stock/custom rom)
[Galaxy 3 General] urb4n:
On the Kyrillos' Rom 7.0, with the fix provided, the test went on fast and smoothly. When it came to use the gps deeper in the city centre, well.. It took about 10 minutes to fix make it work. But it's rather phone than rom issue. I've play around GPSsetup2 for a while as well, and it didn't help much. As far as I tried the Kyrillos' rom and that fix worked the best for me, but still far from what I might expected
[Galaxy 3 General] Blackyx007:
Thanks for your reply :)

Largely the poor GPS performance is hardware-related, but I noticed that the GPS performance vary by custom ROM (I tested always on the same place en with a clear sky :p ).

Do you remember what rom you used before you flashed kyrillos 7.0 ?
[Galaxy 3 General] urb4n:
Well, I'm not really sure, but as far as I remember it was Kyrillos' 6.0 :) To be exact, after 6.0 (with that one the gps performance was really poor btw) I flashed to stock JPS (in which I couldn't make it work at all, then again my sat-nav had some problems too, so I'm not really sure if it was rom's fault), then to Kyrillos' 7.0.. Oh, and then there was Indroid, the present version, and gps worked quite good, but not better than 7.0. And still, I like the Kyrillos' rom better :)

I'm not sure if that's the best rom for gps usage, but i works the best for me. I was thinking of experimenting with the older version of roms, but I decided I'm happy with what I currently have ;)
[Galaxy 3 General] Blackyx007:
Thanks such an answer I was looking for :D

Myself i experimented to with many different roms and once (i don't know but it was a stock rom :p) i get a fix in less than 3 seconds in my room on a cloudy day and after that I'm searching for the rom and combination of previous rom with the best gps perfomance :)
[Galaxy 3 General] urb4n:
Glad I helped :) To sum up- stock JPS flashed to Kyrillos' 7.0 worked the best for me ;)
[Galaxy 3 General] mikelete:
So, here's my answer. I'm using GreenMods POX 1.5 and after doing that fasterfix and GPSetup2 thing that I linked, I can't say that I'm having a great GPS performance, but it simply works. My main GPS use is for RunKeeper app, and I usually get a fix in about 1-2 minutes, and then it just works well. The same goes for Google Navigation (I tried once).

Before that, I was using 2.1 stock ROM (for Spain, I don't know exactly which stock ROM was) and after installing GPSbooster I usually had a fix in less than a minute. So, better performance than without GPSbooster.

To sum up: 2.1 stock ROM better performance with GPSbooster, and better performance than GreenMods POX 1.5 with fasterfix and GPSeup2. Never tried any 2.2 stock ROM ;)

p.s.: GPSbooster didn't work so well with GrennMods than with 2.1 stock ROM, and that's why I tried fasterfix.
[Galaxy 3 General] Blackyx007:
When i discovered the world of flashing and rooting i never flashed a stock 2.1 or 2.2 rom again (only for roms that require a stock rom where you have to flash a certain rom over :D

But the GPS works on certain stock roms much better than on a custom rom but who wants a stock rom with nothing else than slowliness and boring looks :D and its so bad that some stock roms with a good gps performance have after customization a much less gps performance
[Galaxy S II Accessories] maddler:
Just received it yesterday (got it from Expansys) and as of now I'm pretty satisfied with it!

Consider that I was still unable to fully charge/discharge it so I expect to get even better results in the next few days.

As of now, I disconnected from AC power this morning at around 9.00 and after about 12hrs I still have ~50% whereas I used to get ~20% or less using standard battery.

Increase in thicknes didn't proved to be a big issue by the way.

My suggestion is to get it!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] d3sm0nd:
Also ordered from expansys and waiting to get mine in the next couple of days. :D
[Galaxy S II Accessories] GuestK00450:
Does it still fit into regular cases?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] maddler:
No, it comes with a replacement back cover. It slightly incrase thickness as I said, about 1mm. It basically clears the step on the back. But increased phone life justifies it, IMHO.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] jzmtl:
Sounds like what they should've done out of the box, this race for thinnest phone is pretty stupid.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Jun Hong:
nah. to me the normal battery is good enough.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] bryant_16:
How is this extended battery compared to the 3500 extended battery?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] sunseaker:
I assume this is the 2000mAh battery that you are talking about? Do you have any photos with the battery attached? I assume the camera is recessed much further in with the new cover or does the cover taper towards the camera?

Ok guys, I need to get a bit personal before we get to the link.

Everything I do for Android is done in my own personal free time for fun. You are not doing me any favours by using this Rom. I am not obligated to customize the Rom to what you want, modify it to fit your needs better, resolve bugs you encounter or owe you an update. I am aware of most bugs still in this Rom and I am actively working on fixing them. When I get fixes I will update at that time. However, you are free to take my Rom or parts of it at free will and modify to your hearts content with out my permission. That simple. You don't like something about my Rom, then change it on your own. If I can find the time to do the research and mod,change what I want, so can you.​

Nah this is gonna remain strictly between me and Team Mik Ie. newtoroot.

that makes "sense" haha im ready! so i see it says beats by dre is that just cause the phone supports it or is there something in the rom that will give us that option..?

Hell Yeah! I'm in. Loving 3.5 so far on Bliss but can't wait to get this flashed.

Love the Inc2 3G icon, nice touch. Teeter is back too lol.

Will this one have the quick launch drawers widget?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] RamAir02:
Why is this Sense 3.5 so different looking than the Bliss Sense 3.5? Sorry for being ignorant. This seems to have the more traditionally styled Rosie, while Bliss just has two circular buttons for PHONE and APP DRAWER...

Regardless, I can't wait for this! Y'all are truly amazing, considering none of these feature sets were intended for our devices. Kick ass!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ithrewitontheground:
The Bliss is a phone designed for women, so they put a skin on that is designed to appeal to women.

I can't imagine anything smoother than the Desire HD rom, but I'm game.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] nikon_rh50:
Perfect! Finally a rom with beats by Dre audio. I have yet to find another rom that has the same sound enhancement quality as CM7. MIUI used to have it but later was removed. CM7 has that nice deep boom on bass boost like a sub. Sense roms sounds like a muddy thud. Hopefully beats will be as good or better. Finally bring justice to my headphones.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] watt9493:
I'm not sure what beats will do on our phones. Can stang or newt explain?

[Droid Incredible Android Development] GRZLA:
The beats by dre stuff will not work on our phones. We do not have the correct hardware. Beats by dre is more than an audio driver.

Beyond my 1 issue now.. I definitely need to save that boot animation for future down the line..... nice.. simple.. clean....

Also where is the shutdown animation stored? I love it when it just goes black unlike other roms....

Id prolly not install it if those are importanr.

It's working for me ,but when using it can't connect to the network, tried turning airplane mode on and then off and still wouldn't connect regular reboot works fine so nothin major

I've notice now that GPS keeps switching itself back on and being used! Not just on but being used.....

Even after I keep switching it off.. anyone else seeing this?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] teentech:
This is a great ROM, but is there any way to get a white notification pulldown instead of the black? With the black, some notifications are impossible to read without highlighting.

it wont break root. maybe I can install rom and try for wifi but id rather just have logs. maybe it is a problem with the rom. what file did you flash?
