About "Deep sleep and battery" issues...

Actually guys, yes, we're tired of read the same thing post over post...i know that westcrip see the feedback but, even if he are planning release some fix (i don't think so) this "deep sleep" issue

is cover by the disclaimer

, which disclaimer? The one that you read yet, because you read the FAQ yet right? Ok, thanks then. As you know RR, from the v3.0 it's a nightly (or even lower...) so,

if you have a really bad behavior, like the no deep sleep, the best solution it's go back to v3.0.1, v3.0 or v2.6.1

i have mirrors for all that versions on the Mirrors Index but, please stop of post the same thing about battery and deep sleep.

One user suggest add one section of "Known Issues" on the OP but, since the ROM it's based on Previews it's useless because any issue can appear and maybe not for all (i appreciate the suggestion even if i'm not the OP and i'm not developer RR). Until the moment the best that it's possible to do it's the read the Known lacking stuff and issues with RR JB 3.0

Thanks for read and continue enjoy the ROM.

"sorry to bother" ... The idea of ​​comment that the computer does not enter deep sllep is to see if it is a common problem, thereby return to the previous version or who is or if anyone happened to him, looking for the problem of generating the soft my team. Thanks for the "collaboration"
[Galaxy S II Android Development] GaboWinter:
I didn't post the information above targeting to one particulary user, of course

the feedback it's appreciated

but, honestly, since the morning i've been reading the same so, i think it's the moment

(after 12 hours)

of see that it's a common issue and it isn't necessary post it again.

hi - how can i change my default launcher? i choose apex and i tick always now i do not know how to change this. :) Noob question
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ifentanez:
Settings> apps> apex > clear default
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pauch_19@yahoo.com:
your on apex as default launcher? try going to apex setting/ advance settings/ from there i think you can disable it as you default.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] GaboWinter:
If you already have another installed go to Settings - Aplications - All - Find and select Apex - Inside clic on Delete default settings. If you don't have another launcher, install one, press home button and you can choose again.

I reflashed to 2.6 and it was working in the beginning. But now after.some updates and using ntfsd for.mounting my external 64GB card I cannot see anymore the.internal card. What is the problem?.any help?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] alexkno:
cheers,

has anybody found a solution for the 'suspend_backoff' wakelock?

It keeps on 3.0.2 my phone alive all the time.

Was searching the FAQ and the thread and I saw some people facing it but no solution.

Tried freezing chrome, switching off browser sync, deactivating latitude but no success.

I am using CM10 kernel and exactly same set up and apps as on 3.0.1 where I didn't face that issue.

EDIT: after applying the things above and a reboot now I get deep sleep...not sure whether the reboot helped or the things above

Had the same issue. As per BadassBatt it seems that RomControl triggers that wakelook. I just disable it using Gemini and the wakelock is gone. Hope it helps.

VERY BAD battery... The phone sucked all the battery in one night...

Anyone would think Gabo posted just two pages ago asking for people to stop *****ing about the battery issues .. of course i'm paraphrasing :)

Apex Settings -> Advanced Settings -> Set default launcher

You need to have another launcher installed so you'll get the choosing screen.

For sure it is as i only did this and wakelock disappeared. BadassBAtt showed 20% battery drained by RomControl.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] alexkno:
Ok, great, so I'll just try to unfreeze chrome and reenable browser sync. In case deep sleep stays juming in, maybe it can be added to version FAQ to stop the questions and *****ing about battery :)

Hello. I have a little problem with this rom. It`s been 2 days since the phone does not use Deep Sleep. And it stays even when locked doing nothing at 500Mhz. And another problem when i switch to loud speaker during a call the person from the other line cant hear me anymore. Everything else works fine. But i dont like that the battery is going down so fast for nothing.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] killa_byte:
i installed the v2.6.1 [Ice Cream Sandwich edition] last week and had some problems if someone can help;

1. i have apps installed but missing from the app menu (so if i go into the play store and look at my apps, i can see that the apps are installed but when i look in the app menu its missing...) i have around 7/8 apps missing from my apps menu but are installed on the phone according to google play store

2. the touchscreen is not very responsive...when i'm browsing and want to zoom in and i double tap, it doesn't do anything and when i try again it would click a link...then i need to hit the back button and pinch to zoom in. also when trying to unlock my phone its sometimes does not allow me to move the slider icon to the unlock pad, it seems like there is something blocking it...i have to switch my screen off, wait a few seconds and try again and then it works... its very frustrating!

3. battery life was okay but yesterday it dropped drastically, it was on around 75% around 12pm and by 2pm it went to 35% and in this time i only made 1 call (5mins long) and surfed the internet for around 30 mins...

4. youtube, dolphin hd browser and many other apps have frozen and then a message '[app name] is unresponsive, do you wish to [wait], [close], [report]

i really like this rom but these issues are really annoying, could anyone help me?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] crushdance:
Seems like you didn't install it correctly. Try a full wipe if coming from another rom.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] apollopayne:
People just read! Every day I check this thread and read up to the last ten pages depending on what I last read. This gives me all info I need of the rom. When there is an update I always first read the F. A. Q as standard. There is some lazy eyes here that can't be bothered to read!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] killa_byte:
i followed the guide thats on page 1, and yes i did a full wipe cause i came from the CheckROM HD ROM, which was very good but was gingerbread...i wanted to use ICS and was told this was the best ROM for ICS
[Galaxy S II Android Development] westcrip:
i told it also on the first page there is the solution
[Galaxy S II Android Development] hazwheel:
Well, I pretty much agree, but I sometimes get the black screen when making/in a call. not always though.

Lots of lag I experienced with the contacts. Also Google Maps FC's all the time. Uninstalled for now. Waiting for a more stable version.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] westcrip:

[Galaxy S II Android Development] kenkiller:
Can't expect perfection from a leaked rom, but I can honestly say, from the half dozen ICS roms I've tested, this is the best bunch out of them.

No major game breakers, 160 DPI works with the built in kernel, move to sd works. It's not as smooth and speedy as Gingerbread roms, but it's the first ICS rom that I didn't feel the immediate regret upon flashing.

Thumbs up!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] hulmeman2:
It's very precise what you have to do, select an animated wallpaper, if you already have one running, change to another one, then immediately boot into cwm and fix permissions.

You can then change wallpaper at will, wallpaper will always be on lockscreen.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] naxos:
i try all ics roms i thing your is the best...thank you for your hard work...i thing its more good with small icons but the rom its almost perfect :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] hazwheel:
I'm no longer getting any FCs, I wasn't getting many with 8.5. I suppose all that's left really is another release with the SystemUI.apk already changed for those that can't do it themselves. Although I do want small icons but also the activity arrows on the wifi and signal bars :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kenkiller:
Not sure what version of Maps was in v9, but I replaced it with ownhere v6.20 of Maps with worldwide navigation, so far so good.

Only for those unlucky ones who don't have Maps Navigation in their country. :(
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mikeyb123:
your the only one mate. you couldnt have followed instruction right when flashing.

maps work great no lag in contacts what so ever

so i dont know what you was doing.

west has worked hard on this rom and as you can see from previous threads the roms super.

best ics you will find right now
[Galaxy S II Android Development] yjchang:
Thanks for your Hardworking ICS.

Til now this version is more stable then other ICS.

Some bug feedback :

1. Open toplight getting black screen and hang

2. A lot software Force Close.

3. Battery life drains quite fast.

for some reason my Mobile signal bars sometimes appear with a Green square instead of the bars ? (Will try get a screenie)

also, anyway to have Default AOSP ICS Statusbar icons for Messages/email/calls/GPS etc (whites ones look out of place) ?

VERY minor things, rom is awesome !

I'm on latest RR ROM from day 1, works great.

Strange thing hapend last night, battery drainend overnight from 98% to 0% in only 6 hours, never happend before, on what ever ROM.

Just running apps I always use no strange apps running, settings are as usual.

Normaly battery drain overnight is just 2-5%

????

I'm thinking this is an siyah issue, because siyah giving me trouble on all latest builds, had to install siyah because aroma won't install the other kernel, when I check the other kernel in aroma it's giving an error and then installes siyha
[Galaxy S II Android Development] killa_byte:
if you refer back to comment #62152 on page 6216, you can see i was advised by 'GaboWinte' to follow the General FAQ which i did, so dont assume i just tried installing the ROM without reading anything! i am one of a handful of people who did research before installing :p
[Galaxy S II Android Development] apollopayne:
I was saying it for people in general wasn't a dig at you.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] killa_byte:
oh right cool, no offense taken! :highfive:

---------- Post added at 09:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:19 AM ----------

could someone confirm if this sounds right after i installed the ROM...

once i got past the setup wizard, and signed into the Google Play Store, all the apps starting installing themselves...i didn't run titanium backup... also everything on my SD card and everything like files etc on my internal memory were still there! ...doesnt a full swipe remove all this? :S
[Galaxy S II Android Development] alexkno:
hmmm, at a first glance i'd advise to reinstall again with full wipe and especially after installation to untick reboot and fixing permissions + wiping cache + dalvik.

1) For the missing apps: how did you install them? Titanium? Maybe they are not compatible or something went wrong. maybe for those apps unisntalling via playstore and reinstalling (also from play store) may help.

2) screen responsiveness may be a kernel issue. Had this with siyah but I am very happy with CM kernel on speed/responsiveness

3) did you check BBS log? Could be an app was running wild, but I guess a indication is needed. Additionally it could alos be related to kernel. with siyah I had several times an unresponsive screen and then during the time the battery was sucked extremely. Didn't face it ever with cm9 kernel on 2.6

4)refers me back to answer to first point. I guess reinstalling with full wipe may help. This could also be driven by a mod installed (if any). After clean installation (as mentioned above) I'd wait for some minutes after first boot (to let mediascanner run etc), then install (user Apps only!) via Titanium without data. Then after a reboot restoring the data only of (again only user) apps for which data is needed. This helped me up to now to solve issues I faced in case they appeared. BTW: I understand you're coming from gingerbread? In this case it may also help format internal and external sd card (of course after backing them up to PC) and only to restore files and flders needed, as android+apps create many files and folders on the cards which with another OS may create problems

EDIT: maybe the misings apps from 1) are on stored on sdcard? I guess there issues with apps2sd? maybe move them to phone can help to get them
[Galaxy S II Android Development] crushdance:
1. Check if those apps are not frozen. In this case those are not showing up in the drawer.

2. System Settings -> Galaxy S II Settings -> Screen -> Touch Sensitivity. Play with it.

3. You need at least 3 full batt cycles so it can calibrate when changing kernels. If you already did them try a manual batt calibration. Check Google for it

4. Can be related to ram overloading. Use SystemPanel app to check your memory loading. Not quite sure on this.

Hope it helps.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] alexkno:
a if they installed themselves then it's the backup functionality of play store (settings/backup + restore).

The data existing on the sd card are not impacted by a wipe, only the /data + /system partitions (+cache, sdext...)

Can I flash this rom directly over my rooted 2.3.3..or I have to first instal a ics based tom and proceed..please help me out guys..thanks in advance..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] killa_byte:
thanks, i will do this tonight once i get back from work... hopefully it will resolve everything... also where can i find the cm9 kernel?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] alexkno:
during installation (aroma installer) choose 'custom', then you can uncheck the standard kernel (I guess it was siyah) and check CM9 kernel.

I can really say that 2.6.1 + CM9 kernel was running perfectly for me. But of course every phone is different, so good luck and have fun!

PLEASE MAKE A HABBIT OF READING AND SEARCHING A BIT BEFORE POSTING!

[Galaxy S II Android Development] alexkno:
honestly I like all the setting you can make, but I faced heating up my phone and also those unresponsiveness with high battery drop on siyah, hence I tried CM9 which for me and my usage gave better battery + responsivenes...unfortunatly there is nearly no customisation to be done :(

Maybe I'll give siyah 4 another try those days, heard good comments, but just need to finish some battery cycles now on cm10 kernel to get an idea
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jaher:
I know some kernels are made for different purposes I've heard that siyah was made for performance can someone confirm this
[Galaxy S II Android Development] killa_byte:
search for kernels
[Galaxy S II Android Development] SilencerOfLambs:
Yeah siyah gives better performance than most.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] alexkno:
in fact siyah is alround kernel. You can choose different profiles (battery friendly, performance etc).

But main reason is

1) customizing - nearly everything can be set to your needs

2) dual boot: let's you use aonther ROM
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jaher:
So that means siyah is a performance ROM

Out of cm10 And dream kernel are any of theses a battery conserving kernel because I value battery over performance
[Galaxy S II Android Development] xG-Tank:
Can someone help me with my battery problem which dump file do I post?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] SilencerOfLambs:
Depends on user.

No more questions on this as this is not the thread for other kernels. Kernel usage and performance as well as battery depends and varies from user to user so please please refrain from asking further questions related to it.

I use Solar panels.

But since you cannot do that, i suggest you to get some solar panels and learn some hardware hacking and use them. :)
