I'm trying to find a screen protector that doesn't show fingerprints. Right now I just have a cheap-brand film on my screen, but my oily skin makes it almost impossible to see the screen after a short while.

I see that the Moshi anti-glare/anti-fingerprint mentioned earlier SAYS that it takes care of this, but does anyone know first hand if this or any other protector work well for this? The glare reduction isn't nearly as important to me as just not being so easy to smudge

Just went back to stock 2.3.3. I was on AOSP 4.0.3 but after jumping off of RC1, I was never able to get it working just right again. Thinking about just going and getting a Galaxy Nexus from Bell, if they'll sell it to me.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrManiacNF:
I flashed ICS 4.0.3 RC2.11 tonight... all is good so far.. but for the last few months I've been on stable CM7.1.. to nightly 181...it was awsome with the latest glitch kernel.

Battery life on CM7.1 blew stock outta the water once I had everyone configured right. I would easly get 2 days with fair usage and I get bad reception in college building.

This ICS has quite the contender to stand up too... especially since CM7.1 is only a reboot away.

If glitch kernel didn't exist for ICS, I wouldn't be using it.

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrManiacNF:
battery tips.... hmmm....

The biggest thing was glitch kernel, and undervolting a little. I use autostarts to make set permissions on apps and make sure they only run when I want em too run.

Pretty quiet round here these days. Long weekend, anyone got any big, flashing plans? I've been on WeUI for the last week or so and have nothing but huge praise for it. After initially flashing it I ended up back on ICSSGS for a day then immediately back to WeUI.

If'n you got some time and you're looking for something new, give it a shot. On the other hand, if anyone's got something that one of us hasn't tried yet...(Buck?) how's about letting everyone know what you have going on!

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] finneginsfast:
Seems like the only issue I had with it was a laggy launcher (Apex) which turns out to be the fault of the launcher itself. I had intitially attributed it to the rom since that was the first time I'd noticed the problem. Same issue with Apex in ISCSGS and I've since noticed in the Apex thread alot of other folks have the same issue across the board.

I'm also keeping an eye out for the new version of ISCSGS as well, I'm sure I'll check it out but I'm hooked for the moment.

Battery life Screenshots using different governors and schedulers

Above you have screenshots of my battery life using Siyah kernel 2.6.3 and Thunderbolt Scripts 2.3.2

As you can see for me it is pretty amazing and the results are brilliant. Now on Siyah 2.6.4 and Thunderbolt scripts 2.3.3.

Also using Voltage Control and undervolting and using scheduler SIO and governor Lulzactive for now. Testing the new kernel and same governor with updated scripts to see how battery goes. I shall post different screenshots for different governors in due course.

My battery life before...stock with speedmod

NOW...... check rom and speedmod

tried everything NO solution yet........:mad:

you may say i have more apps running now but... generally the battery life is really poor now..you see i have the ANDROID OS virus
[Galaxy S II General] Neo3000:
install BBS and find out what keeps your phone awake and causes the battery drain and then try and unistall it.
[Galaxy S II General] awesome-member:
Tried and failed. No luck.... Can't find the culprit. Keeping wifi on did drain more battery but it was not the only culprit.
[Galaxy S II General] Neo3000:
Can not help you then buddy. The only thing i would suggest is try and make wifi to go off when screen is off. You can set that up when you go into settings - wifi and network and then wifi settings press menu button click on advanced and there you will find sleep policy and try switching it to when screen is off for wifi to sleep come out and reboot
[Galaxy S II General] awesome-member:
Believe me I've tried everything I've tested every ROM and kernel combo and I even purchased juice defender ULTIMATE (all radio off when screen is off) but couldn't get rid of the Android bug. Hope ics built will fix it. I have learnt to live with poorer battery life. :(

Have you tried latest Siyah kernel and checkrom. No AOS bug and battery is nifty
[Galaxy S II General] awesome-member:
I am on the latest check rom and on speedmod kernel. But I'll give syriah kernel a go.
[Galaxy S II General] Neo3000:
Give Siyah a go and use Voltage Control to control the cpu clock and try and undervolt a bit. Use Lulzactive governor and see how you go. Also try SIO scheduler...Let me know how you get on:)

[Galaxy S II General] mynamesteve:
You do realize that generally this will use more battery than staying constantly connected to wifi.

3G uses more battery than wifi.

If you think about it, the cell tower is pretty far away compared to your router. :)
[Galaxy S II General] systemcrasher:
Adding to this, poor phone reception will also drain more battery.
[Galaxy S II General] Neo3000:
Looks good buddy. But what would happen if you had the 500Mhz to 200 instead? Would you not have got a bit extra out of the battery?

Steve. Why would it eat more battery? I mean screen is off but having wifi on will keep your phone awake. A thing that is not really needed and would eat more battery.
[Galaxy S II General] mynamesteve:
Having wifi on will not keep your phone awake

Because if you have a constant connection to your router that is 5 foot away your using less battery than it constantly polling to the data tower which is prob a few miles away.

If your out and about turn wifi off as the constant searching will decrease battery.

There is a fair bit of info on the web about this, i'm afraid i haven't the time to find it out now, have a search tho.

there one example

[Galaxy S II General] Neo3000:
nice one fella thanks for the link...i always thought it was the other way round. and yeah i know i always switch it off when i am out as like you say it will eat up battery by constantly scanning to find a connection. so best to use 3g when i am outdoors
[Galaxy S II General] Neo3000:
exactly so maybe sometimes instead of having 3g best turn it to 2G or Edge to save up bit battery...:)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 309041291a:
Hi there. I'm pretty new to the forum, and I have a question regarding the stock ICS music app and the lock screen controls you get while music is playing.

I like the music controls, BUT... What bugs me is that half of my screen turns black and I like to display my wallpaper or at least *full screen* album artwork. Surely I can't be the only one who finds a half black screen visually unpleasant and "incomplete".

So my question to you guys; is there a way that I (or some ROM modder out there .... perhaps in the future of CM9) can change that. I would like to know if it's possible to keep the controls on my lock screen transparent over my phones wallpaper (making sure that the wallpaper covers my entire phone screen)? Or is it possible to have the album artwork full screen, rather than half of the screen album artwork and the other half black?

Not to confuse anyone but I'd also like to keep the notification bar visible. When I say full screen I mean one that covers the entire lock screen but still displays the notification bar (like the home screens).

Thanks in advance, any knowledge or help with where to start looking would be appreciated. Even an edit of the actual app that can be flashed would be nice :P. Thanks again!
