Calk has said when he has time he will be integrating it into this rom. just download one of the flashlight apps like tesla or mini flashlight, they have nice little widgets if all you want is the flashlight.

Even quicker is setting a shortcut on your lockscreen with something like Widget Locker. That's what I do and it's literally two steps (power button, shortcut) to turn it on.

I generally get around 500kbps to 1Mbps with Hotspot. Maybe some kind of cap in there. Did you try the native Hotspot with the cord? Speeds are often better..at least they were on first Epic
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] schwab002:
This could be caused by two things in my experience: Either not using your phone much at all so the screen never has the time to drain the largest chunk of power from your battery OR it may be the wake lock suspend_0 bug. Get betterbatterystats can help figure out what's causing but in the end, the only thing to do if it's the bug is to reboot your phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] coiledwire:
Par for the course with stock kernels. If you dig deeper, it boils down to an event and suspend processes. There's debate if it really causes battery drain or not. There is a thread on xda that goes pretty in depth regarding this, if you want additional info.

Only rogue's desperado and gunslinger kernels have reduced this percentage for me. Not sure if its fixed or just hidden, but this isn't an issue I'm concerned with.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EeZeEpEe:
I'm guessing it's capped to 3G speeds. If anything, I feel like I get quicker loading with 4G turned off. I've never tried with a cord. Are you talking about going to Settings, Wireless and network, Tethering? It's still free like the 4G hotspot right?

Sorry. Still getting used to the different keyboard and spellcheck on my Galaxy coming from my EVO... I installed this one Yesterday (Day before now) and the two weather live wallpapers are gone.

Not to mention, I've been having the battery issues like a few others have mentioned as well. Came off the slightly older Stock Rooted DeOdexed EL26, which I could an entire day without a charge.

Figure I'll nandroid back to my old config in the meanwhile, but was wondering if taking out those wallpapers was done intentionally?

guys sorry if its been discussed in the past... but is it possible to get more battery drain if you flash the -100 script?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] meatwadathf:
Actually your battery life should increase the lower the undervolting. So theoretically you should have the best battery life with the -100 script.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] m_reyna_16:
thanks, the reason why im asking is because yesterday i got a whole day and like 3 hrs with the regular settings and all i did was flash the rom clean and not add anything, no facebook, no email, no nothing... and today i flashed the -100 script and downloaded the LiveProfile app, which is like the bbm but for android, iphone and blackberry devices, and my battery life was not that good today... any thoughts?

Thats exactly how i feel! The new 2.8.1 seems to be draining my battery alot faster than it usuall was on the 2.7's and such. Im kinda bumped 2.8.1 is the official OTA update. I used to only have 10mAh through 14mAh usage pet hour with the screen off. Now when my phone sleeps it uses 50mAh through 90mAh. I have the same apps and widgets installed. Nothing has changed but the rom and i have atleast 30% degrease in over all battery life. It just eats battery when its screens off. Used to be it would loose 2-4% if i was asleep for the night for 10hours. Now it drops 15-25% in 10 hours when i sleep. I still get batter life than other phonea but i know it could be alot better. May go back to 2.7 but idk

I set my scale in Tegrak down from 1.2ghz to 800mhz to save myself some battery. Does this completely over ride the built in battery saving script? And in the event i want to run the script again, how do I do so?

**I noticed Tegrak raised it back up to 1000mhz, according to the script. Used SETCPU and the 800mhz sticks now. So, how would I revert back to using the script? Uninstalling setcpu and a reboot?

I've had some serious issues with 2.8+ with this ROM. The first time I flashed 2.8, I had everything force close (absolutely everything, launcher, phone,etc.., phone was unusable due to incessant force close boxes). I rolled back to 2.6. (very stable)

I was having issues with GPS locking in 2.6, so I tried 2.8.1. Worked wonderfully for a week or so but just last night the phone randomly booted into recovery mode and would not boot the rom whatsoever. It would hang at the yellow triangle splash screen. Again, restored 2.6. Anyone else having these issues?

I haven't messed around too much with the voltage files. I'm going to give it a shot today with the stock voltage.

You can go to system/etc/init.d folder and adjust the scaling so they are all 800 instead of 1200/1000/800

2.7 has been the golden build for me. The early release one with Chris's kernel is giving me monster benchmarks 4400-4800 no overclock. Minimal Black and ICS themes perform flawless for me.

You need to install Vlingo or voicedialer.apk. Sorry, driving, or would otherwise post links. Think Vlingo is in a removed apk folder if you unzip the rom. If you use Google's voice dialer it needs to be installed as a system app.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] m_reyna_16:
is there a way to figure out what undervolted setting is best for me?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:
Trial and error. Every phone is different. I would say start with -50 then move up to -75 next day then -100 to see which gives you best battery
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] coiledwire:
Go aggressive and try the lowest one. If you get increased battery drain, lagginess, reboots, and other negative effects, back off and go 1 Undervolt less. Repeat until you find one that works best for your phone. Seems -50 is safe for most phones, but it's entirely possible your phone hates that too and only stock voltages will do. Trial and error my friend.

I would love to see a thorough breakdown about apps and undervolting.

You can use Titanium Backup to delete unwanted system apps. The method I use is to use the root explorer option within ES File Explorer and mount the system as writable, and delete unwanted apps from the system>app folder.

Rename it. Example:

Just a heads up for anyone using this ROM with Rogue v1.4.0 Gunslinger, leave it on governor conservative. I tried lazy and it had much more drain over night. Well for me at least. :)

Lazy - 3.7% per hour

Yeah especially because the location services broke for a lot of us with the el29.. Had to revert back to an old file to get it to work. I'm hoping more for extended toggles but have no problem waiting until calk puts it in.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Is there a log for changing script permissions and which can safely be deleted? Probably the OP and I missed it but I would need to make some adjustments because the 1000 and 800 may be hurting as much as helping.

Couldn't you just change the battery profile from "1" to "0" to disable it?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nibrwr:
I just removed 'execute' rights from the files that I didn't want to run on boot. Using ES File Explorer - make sure you have root access and mount '/system' as R/W in settings - long press on the file you want to edit, then select 'Properties' at the bottom of the list. Select 'Change' next to permissions, and uncheck the 'execute' boxes. Select 'OK' and reboot when complete.

Or you can change the name of the file extension. That seems to be simpler.

Prior to installing this ROM, I was getting LOS, sometimes once a day, twice a day, or not at all. The 3G indicator would be visible, but I wouldn't get a signal. A Reboot would get the signal back.

After installing this ROM, I have not gotten a LOS, except for what the pic shows, the circle with the line through it.

This has only happened twice, and both times, it was when I didn't use the phone for a couple of hours, I woke it up, and I saw the circle with the line through it.

Is this a battery saver that is built into the ROM, or would this be considered a LOS?

LOS. The battery saver is a script that UVs and UCs cpu depending on battery level. It won't have an indicator.
