Google "2.3.6 battery drain or UCKK6 battery drain" and it'll show you a different forum's listing of the issue. (Yes, Entropy's actually addressed this issue over there as well.)

It has to do with WiFi...also some mention of IPv6 multicast stream...it's over my head. But I do know that I had much better battery life with the 2.3.4 version of unNamed ROM because the UCKH7 kernel didn't have this issue. Just cause you don't have apps set to auto-sync doesn't mean anything since I don't allow most of my apps to notify me incessantly (e.g.: Twitter or Wordfeud).

I'm living with it at the moment (as I'm too lazy to revert back) and hoping that gtg comes back with an update (either 2.3.7 or ICS -- ICS preferred, of course) to help alleviate this problem.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jm1280:
I fought and fought with battery life using this ROM. I was getting maybe 8 hours hardly using the device. I even tried stock, CM7, Entrophy but still had terrible battery life. Called ATT to have them send me a new battery, same issue. I got this phone on launch day here in the US and had heard some of the handsets were defective. Long story short after 4 months of trying everything I just had ATT replace it under warranty. Since I got the replacement phone my battery life is almost 2 days on a single charge with this ROM. At the moment I am at 46% and the phone has been on battery for 1d 2h 36m 21s. Thats just amazing. Screen hasn't been on that much but still. I am in no way spending time killing off processes all damn day like I was in the past, Wifi, GPS and sync are on all the time. Best I have gotten was 1d 18h with the screen being on for 4 hours and I still had 10% left. This is the best phone on the market by far.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] trell959:
Still a great rom
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Nizda1:
When they gave you your replacement, out of curiosity, what stock firmware did it come with,? Uckh7 or Uckk6 and from there are you back on unnnamed 2.2.1 working great?

This rom seems complete to me, if you want something that is similar and still getting updates you can try ShoStock.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mickey4mice:
So, does this mean gtg's gone for good from this thread? No ICS updates for UnNamed?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] :
If so, then Ill get PirateGhost to come over and make some roms.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] LiLChris06:
ICS isn't going to happen till Samsung drops some code, its been said a dozen times. :p

Last time he posted here : "24th December 2011, 10:58 AM"

So its safe to assume he is done for now.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] BigWopHH:
So, development on this ROM has stopped?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] LiLChris06:
For the time being yes unless GTG pops in and says different but he hasn't posted in a month here and is developing for other phones.

ShoStock said he is almost done with his rom as well in his Rom thread.

There is only so much you can do with a rom that is revolved around being as close to stock as possible. ;)

If you want something different try some roms from the i9100 (Hellraiser)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] shoman94:
Doesn't mean I'm gonna stop improving stuff. Might just be longer in between updates. IMO i pumped out quite a bit of stuff in a short period. I have more I want to do but it will depend if I have the smarts to get it done. After all I am pretty green at this.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Alucardis666:
I'd love to see a to do list as well. :-) I'm sure if the ideas are good then other devs wouldn't mind assisting in anything that maybe beyond your abilities *Though I doubt much is...*

Question...I'm noticing that I cannot adjust the in-call volume while the screen is off. Any tweak available for that? Sorry if its been brought up already.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
Main thing I'd advise is to consider rebasing on an I9100 base.

Negative: I still haven't figured out how to change the STOP_APP_SWITCHES protectionlevel in AndroidManifest.xml of framework-res.apk without breaking EVERYTHING. (signature issues when you touch this XML...)

Positive: There is still no fix that I know of for BTHID being broken. Note that this is also broken in XWKK5 base. XXKI3 is rock solid.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] shoman94:
That's known.... A drawback to have the volume song skip mod.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] hurley81388:
Many of us have requested a flashable mod to remove this feature but so far no dev has helped us out. If I had more time I would figure it out on my own but right now is a terrible time.

This issue drove me so nuts I reverted back to stock rooted 1.3.4 with DD 1/2 experimental
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] wgarrido:
I am thinking I am going flash back as well or find another ROM. I need the older base for HID and the volume thing is annoying.

When you flashed back did you wipe?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] NJGSII:
Do roms with the XXKI3 base suffer from the aos bug?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] hurley81388:
I did but I always do a full wipe when switching roms just to be safe but you may not have to bc they're both based on stock. I believe in the stickied thread about returning to stock they recommend a full wipe but I can't remember

So I read somewhere in this thread of people using Juice Defender to help with battery life. I just wanted to give a +1 to that. I've been using it for the past few days and my battery life went from having to charge it every night to going 13 1/2 hours and only draining down to 78%. That's with heavy texting, but otherwise moderate use.

On a related note, could someone tell me what app that is that shows your battery usage as a graph? I'm just using the stock one and while it's useful for figuring out what's using your juice, it's easier to see dips and at what time drains occur with a graph.

*EDIT* Sorry, drained to 78%, not 72%. So that's even better! 13 and a 1/2 hours and it only used up 22% of the battery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
It might be the same battery graph your referring to. When your looking at what ate what for percent, click on the graph and it goes to a larger more accurate graph.

Ok Im still pretty much a noob with this stuff. But I'm trying to learn.

I plan on going from stock 2.3.4 to UnNamed 1.3.2 tonight.

A few questions. Bear with me please.

So when I install UN 1.3.2, is it going to overwrite whatever kernel I have installed at that time with the phone that is packaged with 1.3.2?

Also if so, are there any bad effects on putting Entropy's latest Kernel on after I put 1.3.2 on my phone? Are there any conflicts?

Sorry for the basic questions, I'm still trying to get a handle on the kernels, ROMs, and modem files and what should be updated and what shouldn't.

Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Simba501:
I'm assuming you know the steps to go from stock to UnNamed.

When you load UnNamed, it will overwrite the kernel that's installed. From there, you can load whatever version of whatever kernel you want.

Has anyone experienced problem with wifi?

At first, it would connect and work just fine.

I was on a site reading some articles for a few min.

Then when I went to a different site, the progress bar indicated it has loaded for a bit and stuck there.

I went to Settings>Network Settings to check and wifi was still connected.

So I disconnected, reconnected, and it worked again.

Then it happened again a few min later.

I flashed 2.2.1 straight from stock, and only added Smooth Scroll mod by Peaster111.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] chocodough:
Another Noob question.

I just put on 1.3.2. (Yay my first ROM)

Is it a good idea to put on Entropy's latest DD Kernel, being as the one that is in 1.3.2 is from last year.

I wasn't sure if there were any conflicts with using the latest Kernel and 1.3.2, and if it was advisable to update it.

Yup, I found that 1.3.2 gave me way better battery life than 2.2.1 with the KH7 modem (for my area, all areas appear to be different) and with Entropy's 1/2/12 DD kernel.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Nizda1:
Same to report here as well. Reverted to Unnamed 1.3.2 Uckh7 firmware using Entropy's dd 1/2/12. I'm on day 4 now, battery gain has been huge and everything has been running very well. Another thing I notice is even though i restored my apps etc.. RAM mgmt seems to be more functional because I am steadily averaging an extra 100megs of free RAM on the UCKH7 firmware than on any previous UCKK6 base.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] nyamoV2:

Battery Life & 2.2.1

Battery life with Unnamed 2.2.1 has for me been about the same as with Rooted and BloatFree Stock 2.3.4. I say this while knocking on wood. :-)

I tagged some pics of my battery stats but so far the longest has been about 90hrs. That's with having Data on the entire time, using both Wifi and bluetooth connected to car and other phones, loads and loads of messages, calls, and surfing the net.

So to anyone who is effy about this Rom b/c of battery concerns you should give it a try!

Thanks once again to gtg!!!

by the looks of it for him...not very long. I've gotten at work in an ER some of my best battery life. Most of the time the phone sits in my pocket and I occasionally load up my drug software to check some things and that's about it.

Last night only dropped to 78% after 10 hours of usage (or 22% in that time). He's getting better than that off me and I even turned sync off during that time. I think that's excellent battery life because drawn out there's about 2 full days of off charge time. Something doesn't add up IMO. Kudos to him for the 80 hours or so of battery life but I think for most that's gonna be a tough sell.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Nosferatu.:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Nosferatu.:
Triple post...my last one no worries.

Since we're all talking about battery I do have a question as to why I get this issue...and this happened since day 1 (before even rooting). If I opt to reboot my phone after using it for a good amount of time it seems to drop like a rock (see picture below). Then it has a hard time calibrating it back to what it should be. I've done some of the battery calibrating comments on XDA here before to no avail.

Here's the photo below to show you what I mean...this was after a day of pretty heavy usage.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] DJLittleMike:

Never worked in the first place, stock ROM is missing the upper layers of NFC support. The kernel driver is there, the low-level libs are there, but the following are missing:

1) Entries in the Settings app (can be worked around with the widget from NFC Tag Launcher)

2) A few low-level permissions XMLs (these can be kanged from the Nexus S)

3) All of the upper-level framework items required for NFC - so no notifications of tag presence, and any apps that are NFC-aware don't receive any notifications from the lower layers of the NFC stack that anything happened.

I'm going to eventually order an NFC development kit with some sample tags for further work on this, but expect NFC to be a while away for ANY ROM unless AT&T releases official support.

Stats are already there. They get reset when the device is fully charged, or you can also set it for stats "since unplugged".

So after experiencing drain, look for oddness in BBS.

FYI, if you happen to be using it, Skype is evil - it seems to use the exact same network protocol as the desktop version, which is COMPLETELY unsuitable to mobile devices - Skype has been proven to cause lots of battery drain that gets blamed on Android OS (because most of the battery is spent waking up from suspend to handle Skype packets, not actually in Skype handling the packet.)
