That's with 3G on? If so yeah for some reason its kinda heavy on its use. Ill look into the matter but honestly.. just wait for Version 4.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Xistance:
Sorry, but no. That is with 3g off and wifi on. But if I remember correctly 3G is supposed to eat less battery than wifi? Well whatever. Great job with this rom, I really do like it :)
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Sh0rty007:
Uhm no wifi eat less than 3g..

Nice rom. Fast and smooth.

just not a fan of this type of lockscreen.

wifi it`s one of the battery eaters along with proccessor and display ;) 3g eats less :D

Great rom but theres one bug : email does not work

Edit : after the second reboot works email
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] rayiskon:
i tried to do an RTL patch using madmack's scripts , but i keep getting errors through the process,and after the issues i had earlier with downloading the rom i'm starting to suspect that my hard disk is getting corrupted (bad sectors). Nways, if any of the guys that use RTL with this rom pass by this post, would appreciate if u contact me or just post an attachment of ur working patch.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] geo_xar:
Great job Dutch.ly!!! Fast , smooth , very beautifull! I like so much the font! Your lockscreen is my favorite and so fast! The only thing i noticed is that scrolling in main menu sometimes is far from smooth and some other times the smoothest scrolling i have ever seen! Why this happens?

Thank's again , keep working hard , we like your job!
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] omarmakki:
I made this one and it worked for me... :)
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Dutch.ly:
Thanks a lot, am glad you like it! The sometimes slow scrolling can be caused by the governor or when your phone comes out of sleep (same thing generally) If thats not the case ill look in to the issue! Have fun!
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] rayiskon:
Thanks mate it worked great ;)

Concerning the rom in general, after a whole day use i found 2 lil bugs, but none of them are of any importance to me. the first is the stuttering of the icons (market) when moving from first to last page or vice versa (someone already mentioned it earlier) , i solved it with a nonscrollable wallpaper. the second is that u can't set a lockscreen wallpaper (whatever u chose it'll just show the regular wallpaper on lockscreen), presonally i don't use this option, but just came across it. All in all, RAM handling is ok, battery life is improved comparing to stock, scripts and tweaks are implemented well, maybe a lil color would make the power menu more alive. i'd say the rom is 99% perfect (that 1% goes to the lil wake/unlock lag sometimes, and probably a lil better battery handling, but that's Samsung to blame), anyways i'll be sticking to this one for sure, as far as i'm concerned Dutch.ly u can stop updating it and take a break for a month or two :cool:
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Dutch.ly:
It makes me happy to hear a story like this, thanks! I did my best to deliver a fully working Rom, am glad it worked out so well! I'll surely take all your points in thought for further updates! And about the break thing you're kind of right, but I won't fully stop, I just take it all a bit slower to fix all the issues and think about new great additions! I wish you the best luck with my Rom!
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] prescott66:
Really good ROM.i like it...only one thing that i dont like is changing color of signal strength and mobile connection indicators between green and gray color.strange... Anyway thanks and keep up good work!
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] geo_xar:
I think signal color changes from gray to green when you have active wifi or 3G connection and when close it gray is back. Personally , i like it.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Dutch.ly:
Correct, when ur signal is active, wifi, 3G or normal data (sms) it changes to green, if not gray.

Found this out lately, not really sure if its all correct.. atleast most of the time.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] pascal1990:
widget

how do i get the google search widget back?ive searched the internet but didnt found anything.:confused:
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] oudbrood:
When its green, its means you have connection with the google server.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Dutch.ly:
Right, that too!
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] rayiskon:
download google search from market :rolleyes:

Edit:

i remembered 2 lil init.d scripts we used to use back in the htc days, i haven't tried them yet,but i will later today, if they have any effect u might implement them in a next build Dutch.ly ;)

the first one is a defrag script (extract the script from the init.d folder in the zip) , i'll try it later to see if it has any effect on our device, obviously we don't have low internal memory issues as the htc desire, but i'm wondering if it would boost up the performance a lil bit (app and files opening etc..)

the second lil script is an "anti spyware" that blocks usagestats from being "distributed" by apps (it sets permissions that those files can only be read by owner)

(u can test if it works with TrevE's app , which is compatible with most devices, it was even reviewed by SassiBob on xdatv ). this lil "anti spyware" script goes like this:

#!/system/bin/sh

# Crypt0night Tweaks
# Date: 05-10-2011

echo "2. cleaning up spyware stuff"
busybox rm -f /data/system/userbehavior.db
busybox chmod 400 /data/system/usagestats/
busybox chmod 400 /data/system/appusagestats/
echo "2. Done"

My battery drains a little fast :(

Off the charger at 9, now i only have 30% left.

Didn't use it that much cause i'm working til 5:30 pm.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Dutch.ly:
Ill take a look into that, thanks Ray! Dont know if its that much of an improvement overall but i can always test it out.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Dutch.ly:
I am working on a new version which has less drain.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] carlese:
my battery drains fast too, compared to UCM.. same use, same schedulers, tweaks and I/O, but 20% less battery.. maybe it's the colored status bar, i don't know..
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] oudbrood:
Have you found something which causes the drain?

Will it be a fixed or must we wait for the big 4.0 release?
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] rayiskon:
guys what drain are u talking about exactly ? in standby or when u're actually using the phone ?

i lost 7% in 9hrs over the night (still better than stock), and during use it's handling the battery well. i used on demand as wake and smartassv2 as sleep governors. i'm testing now without using a screen off governor with set cpu, so it's only the on demand, i have a feeling it's draining even less in standby.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Dutch.ly:
Its double sided u know. I did most i could to fix draining in this version but still its draining? Whats the cause and can it even be fixed? Its a lot of effort to find something that causes this.. if there even is a cause.. So maybe u are right and there is no drain.

Nonetheless i got some more fixes and tweaks on the battery and scrolling so stay tuned :)
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Xistance:
This is about a 24 hour usage on ondemand/sio.

I changed to smartassv2 just now to see if the drain is less.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] oudbrood:
I found this not bad.....almost 1 day and still 43% left
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] rayiskon:
actually it was on 37-38% when he started charging. mine ended with 23% after 24hr , but i've used my phone a lot, wifi always ON, definitely better than stock.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Sh0rty007:
Well, i had only 30% left after 8 hours so....

and i used a screen off profile for my cpu.

used smartassv2.

just used twitter (plume) a few times.. maybe my screen was on for like 2 hours total.

3G on, wifi and anything else off.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Xistance:
Yeah, it was 36% if I remember correctly. This isn't bad at all but on another rom I got down to this same percentage in 2 days with a bit more usage like the photo i attached.

I will keep on using it though cause that is the only problem I found and even that is not anything major as it is still better than the stock.

Great job Dutch making this awesome Rom :) You can take a break if you want now :D
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] oudbrood:
Woww 2 days.

I never had that
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] oudbrood:
Mmmm stay tuned?

Are you making a fix or a whole new rom?
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] joaquinalberto:
Thanks for your work. I really like it, and for me the battery drain is not being an issue at all. After to install Go launcher and use it during a day and a half, still 26%.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Dutch.ly:
I appreciate all the nice comments on my work, great to have such a nice community!

I am already experimenting with some new tweaks.. not sure if i implement them all.

Functions:

Coming | GPS improvements for faster locks and way better accuracy;

Coming | More free ram trough assets;

Coming | Dalvik cache will start out with only 8mb ram and max till 32mb saving lots of internal storage;

Unsure/Untested | Faster UI trough dithering, might cause artifacts in widgets;

Unsure/Untested | Keeping the launcher into ram for a more stable/smooth UI.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Sh0rty007:
Your rom os really really fastttt. Just the battery draining is an issue for me and gmail doesn't automatically sync uour mail so i have to open gmail and refresh it myself...

Verstuurd van mijn GT-I9001 met Tapatalk
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] oudbrood:
Have you set automatic in settings-accounts/sync
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Dutch.ly:
Should i make an automatic battery calibration script, i could write and implement that..?
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Klarostorix:
I think keeping launcher in RAM is not that important because many people use custom launchers...

One question: I don't use TouchWiz and want to remove it. Is it OK to remove just the apk from system/App or is this still connected to other files?

My battery usage is quite good as well (using SmartassV2 and min.frequency of 122(?) MHz) Though using this lowest frequency there are no lags after/during unlock - great :thumbup:

Worked two days in an area where is very bad connection, so I am very happy with your ROM.

Can't post photo... the xda-App makes me crazy :banghead:
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Dutch.ly:
Yeah u can remove touchwizlauncher from System/App without any problems, just be sure u got another launcher installed already!
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] oudbrood:
It's for me no problem to do it myself. Keep the rom clean as possible :-)
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] rayiskon:
i don't think there's a need to globalize it, people who are having battery issues can use battery caliberation from the market. there's no need to delete the batterystats bin file each time :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] newtonial:
Don't bother. Baterry calibration scripts/apps does nothing - it's only a wipe of battery consumption apps list.

Best tip for battery drain check in ANY rom (IMHO):

After installing new rom, drain your battery to 0% (phone should turn off itself) plug your device and let battery load to 100% (don't unplug phone until battery have 100%). Then check how is battery draining in normal use. I dont know why, but after that, battery draining is somehow optimized (tested on various ROM'S at i9001 and i9100 - always battery drained faster after fresh install of ROM, without this trick). It might be a placebo effect, but for me - IT'S WORKING.

Anyway. I'm testing your ROM from yesterday and i'ts really smooth and fast, GOOD WORK and keep working. Everything work's fine at now.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Dutch.ly:
The process u just named would be the script i named! The only extra part is the automatic deleting of the batterystats, could be something useful so everyone is calibrated..

Am looking into Dalvik cache to /cache, automatic adblock in hosts files, a more enhanced zipaligning method and lots of system tweaks, improved by me, collected and combinated trough XDA (not thunderbolt or adrenaline).
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] rayiskon:
partially because system is creating dalvik for all the stuff u're using and opening for the first time, so on fresh install battery is always drained faster.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] newtonial:
Sorry, I didn't know what you're mean by "battery calibration" exactly :)
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Dutch.ly:
Dont worry i didn't say which parts or what the script contained so u are right though about the calibration of the battery. The only thing added would be the wipe of batterystats for the system to know how to display the correct battery % and warnings.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Dutch.ly:
Proud to announce that coding and working went like a breeze. Added lots of new tweaks and optimized tons of code! This will all be implemented in Version 4.0!

Edit 1: Damn Version 4.0 is smooth, works awesomely fast. Am glad i can already use it mu ha ha... evil laugh!

Edit 2: Antutu gives a 3900 score with Feacore kernel and my own tweaks (nothing else), kinda great!
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] haribo318:
will Version 4 look different then the stock look ?

and i have still a lite lag when i unlock my phone and didn't have used it a time and scroll between the screens
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] carlese:
dutchy you should use the KQ7 rom as the base for V4.. ;)
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] oudbrood:
Mmmmm I have also a battery drain.

Lost 25% in 2hours
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Aronka:
I got a 3873 score in Antutu with KQ7, without tweaks, just deodexed and with new GPU drivers! When I installed Feamod Phoenix Kernel then I lost about 100 points :> But at least it's smoother now..

Btw, with your rom I got restriction on Need for Speed Hot Pursuit....

it told me, that my phone is not eligible to play that game!
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] despotovski01:
Maybe the dpi property in the build.prop file is other than 240. Set it to 240 and try again. :)
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] rayiskon:
i did another lil monitoring of the battery consumption. In awake state, the phone is handling it well and battery consumption is improved compared to stock. in standby, it is consuming 2% every 3 hours, so for a 9 hrs sleep time u'd lose around 6-7% , and i think that this field is the one we should concentrate on tweaking, messing with the awake state will lead to smoothness/performance changes. If we could only find a way to decrease battery consumption in standby to let's say 3% for 8-9 hrs of sleep.

These observations were done on my phone with radio ON throughout the night (including wifi ON all the time), other people might get different numbers.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] marcelloh:
no drain - no gain :-)

I have:

- setcpu bringing it down to 122 Mhz when display = off

- tasker syncing with Internet 1 minute each half hour in the morning

- tasker syncing with Internet 1 minute each quarter of an half hour in the afternoon

Syncing with internet : if wifi available, use that, else use UMTS or whatever

This bring my phone sometimes up to 3 days without any charge.

And it's about the same with this rom now.

So I'm satisfied.

(except: I changed the startup & shutdown sounds to the silent variants.)

Program is BatteryDrain.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Dutch.ly:
Small update on the development.

The base version will be 2.3.6 KQ7.

Google Play newest version integrated.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] shahbaz5588:
o.3%/h seems standard... thats what i get... the result doesnt vary between stock or custom roms for standby battery drain as far as i noticed... and i love the BatteryDrain app, using it for a while now...

So far the battery is doing great on this rom for me, havent encountered any other problem then what i mentioned before (homescreen loop graphical issue)... and its running smooth as butter... looking forward to the future changes... thanks :)
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Sh0rty007:
Just waiting for V4 :)
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] :
ive got an idea could you implement in version 4 something like a wifi fix if there is something like that because wifi disconnects all the time at the stock and with your rom

thanks
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] prescott66:
i never had a problem with wifi
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] geo_xar:
Me too!!! :)
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] rayiskon:
well if u don't have maps u don't need latitude and places, Navigation won't work anyways if u're outside US.

isn't it easier to do all the modifications on ur phone , then do a nand backup and turn that backup into a flashable zip ? that way u would've tested everything, instead of modifying stuff blindly on ur pc then flashing :)

nways, i don't want to hijack ur thread, whatever works for u is cool :cool:
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Dutch.ly:
Whoa u are wrong about that, navigation works perfectly in Holland.

And i prefer editing blindly call me a fool but i find it a lot easier to work with.

And no u are not hijacking but helping and i appreciate that.

Ill just keep maps with the included stuff, might come in handy some day. Screenshots coming soon too to show available apps etc, nothing special yet.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] rayiskon:
i didn't know Google Navigation worked outside US, that's great news, but still there are many unsupported countries so rom cookers should really consider the brut version :)

i'm glad if i helped, keep up the great work mate :)
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] RavoxX:
The face-unlock won't work, this is clear. The camera would be nice, I noticed that you can't push the camera.apk via adb. Don't know exactly why, noticed it when changing the app-drawer-icon. You have to flash it everytime via CWM but I didn't tried it yet with the new i9000-camera.apk. If you want to port the rotation you have to take /system/lib/libsurfaceflinger.so and libsurfaceflinger_client.so
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Dutch.ly:
The base rom is close to being finished, this means:

Applications removed

Stability tested

Battery test

All passed on what i expect from a phone! Screenshots and pre-alpha soon.

Dont expect a fully fledged awesome spectacular new rom its just very simple and basic (for now) with only new gpu drivers and removed apps, oh yeah and a new nice looking wallpaper!
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] dr.wtf:
somewhere i read you got the rom to use 90mb ram. if this is true i will install it immediately...
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Dutch.ly:
I can still finish building on that one, this aint the same. A lot of options and services where deleted on that speed build this is fully stable so i continued to work on this.. i'd figure about 150-170 mb ram in normal use mode.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] :
cool! keep it up
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Dutch.ly:
Small update on the work am doing at this moment!

Tweaking the build.prop file to increase speed, stability and most of all battery time!

***Hardware rendering (GPU)***

Allows the phone to sleep better

Saves power when phone is in sleep mode

Allows your wifi to scan less frequently, saving more battery

Helps Scrolling Response

Increases overall touch response
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] broodplank1337:
nice, and ofc the name of the rom ;)
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] BackDaws:
Navigation works perfect in UK thanks :0)

i use Maps, Navigation and Latitude all the time so please leave it in unless i can just download maps from Market and have it all working.

features id like to put to you are, Turn over the phone to ignore an incoming phone call, quiet ring on pick up of incoming phone call and flip to speaker when in a phone call ( putting phone down on front activates speaker while in a phone call picking up deactivates speaker ) all 3 of those come on the HTC phones :)

i dont think we need to overclock our phones as ive never had any problems with lag but undervolting would be nice to improve battery perfromance.

for now dont use Adrenaline Shot V13 as theres a bug in it that kills gaming performance.

Thanks :)
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] rayiskon:
Off topic: i'm really surprised that some European countries (including mine) are still not supported. oh well, guess Google is playing hard to get :D

---------- Post added at 08:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:15 PM ----------

just keep in mind that some of those tweaks don't work on our device. screen density for a start. keep it up, this is looking nice ;)
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Dutch.ly:
Yeah i read a article about that, thanks for the heads up tho.

As for now these tweaks are applied for more stability, speed, battery and usability.

Hardware rendering (GPU)

Decrease dialing delay

Improved scrolling responsiveness

Improved overall touch responsiveness

Battery saving by reducing wifi scan interval and sleep mode

Fixed some application issues

Disabled blackscreen issue after a call
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Dutch.ly:
I wont remove anything more then i did now, check the frontpage to see what is removed and what remained intact, this is more or less the final list.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] i9001:
would be awesome if u can fix the wifi dropouts in your rom
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] broodplank1337:
That's the thing that probably is causing the problem, also have it in my rom but it seems to be a sucky tweak
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] dr.wtf:
for me it helps to set a static ip to prevent wifi dropouts. though i've read that this doesn't always help.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] cobra83hp:
I cant see the link to download?
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] dr.wtf:
seems like you can't read either... try reading the first post, especially the faq which i know is HUGE

edit: i'd like to see the extended status bar in the rom
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] BackDaws:
To fix the wifi issues just go into your routers settings and change the dhcp lease time from forever to any other settings like 2 days or 2 weeks.:p

---------- Post added at 07:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:19 PM ----------

No it happens for me on a stock rom :( unless like i said you change lease time from forever to 2 days or 2 weeks.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] broodplank1337:
I had the same ;)
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] rayiskon:
let's just get one thing straight, measuring battery consumption while ur wifi is off all the time is not realistic. it's called a smartphone, and it's supposed to be smart and connected to the internet all the time, if not wifi (while u're at home) then mobile data. well we can then trun radio off throughout the night and we'll have 1% of battery consumption over 8 hrs. but that's just not realistic if u really use ur smartphone as a smartphone.
