Just flashed this, noticing an immediate difference. Hoping everything stays smooth...very impressive so far.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JayDaKissEP:
I'm back and forth between this and Franco Kernel but this kernel is definately better for battery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ballbusta:
Is hotplux the best governor for battery?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] past_pluto:
Interactivex got me almost 7 hours of pandora on 3g. Screen was on for less than 2 hours. Zero GPS or navigation. Underclocked to 920 as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] masully84:
Not sure which one specifically, I use interactiveX simply because my phone runs the smoothest with it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EniGmA1987:
I leave this one on InteractiveX as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rusty815:
Any idea on when we would see this? is the GPU speed adjustable?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shimmishim:
3.1 appears to be the best for battery life from what I can tell. I tried franco but it drained the crap out of my battery.

I was also using 2.8 for a while and it was draining the crap out of my battery as well (losing 5-6% an hour doing nothing). With 3.1 I'm only losing about 3% an hour.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] raphenucleus:
leanKernel v3.2.0 is out!

It's running really smoothly for me so far and I haven't noticed any issues, but I've only been running it for a couple hours.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kmso:
3.2.1 exp1

running very nice
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Fabipro:
How much do you untervolt?

Any recommended values?

Thx

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fropirate:
I get great battery life with this kernel running LiquidSmooth. At first I tried the franco kernel, but I was getting really bad battery drain.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] otis_bartleh:
I had flashed the 2.8.0 version, and running AOKP b31, I am extremely happy. Overclocked to 1.35 on interactivex, 3G and 4G almost the whole time. Got over a day and just over 3 hours screen time before throwing on the charger at 5%. I also had about 1 1/2 hours of music playing, some streaming, some not, mostly screen off. Also a bunch of web browsing, took and uploaded to dropbox a few HD videos, some calls, texts, calendar work, other random daily tasks... For brightness, I use auto-brightness, but I also reduced all the levels except for when I am outside. I dropped all the screen brightness levels significantly. Before flashing this kernel, my battery life off wi-fi was just not that good... Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tacosrdelicioso:
@otis What size is your battery??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] otis_bartleh:
Sorry, forgot to put that, stock battery, what 1800mA?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tacosrdelicioso:
You're kidding.....1850 though btw
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] otis_bartleh:
Sserious shi*, that's why I'm so impressed... I've only hit 3+ hours a few times, and all other times I had wi-fi running much more...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SubliminalME:
I've been reading that OC'ing the GPU can be seriously detrimental to battery life.

Does Leankernal at stock settings OC the GPU?

Can't even figure out where to find out what mine is set at.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blulite:
crontab?

It looks to be loaded in /etc/init.d, but it does not seem to be working. Is anyone using cron?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gsxraddict:
Open terminal type su enter then type checkt towards the bottom it should show what it is at. Gpu is stock by default I believe.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ddemlong:
How is 3.5 comparing to Franco's M3?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skater95:
What is everyone getting for battery life? I'm on gummy 1.2.0 with lean 3.5.0.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ddemlong:
I just upgrade to IMO's 3.6 Kernel he released last night. I'll see how she does and report back.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shadowstewie:
What's the lowest voltage settings you guys have that's stable for 3.6.0????
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Amphibliam:
I flashed this earlier today. Are these stats good or bad? (2150 MAH batt)

70%

4.5 hrs off charger

10 min voice calls

20 min music streaming over WiFi

42 min screen on time

about 120 mb of 4G data used

Not sure if this is considered good for this phone or not.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] T4rd:
Did 3.6.0 break the proximity sensor for anyone?

I just noticed today that my phone doesn't turn off the screen while I'm in a phone call. So I loaded up "Elixer" (free in Play store) and it's showing the same reading regardless of how far I put my hand in front of the sensor. I've used this app before to test the proximity sensor just playing around, so I know it worked before.

I'm going to flash an older or different kernel to test it out in a min.

Edit: Weird, flashed Franco's M3 and it fixed it, but then I flashed LK 3.6.0 back and it worked again. I tried rebooting before I changed kernels and it didn't fix it before. Oh well, at least it's working now. Hopefully it doesn't randomly break again in the middle of the day.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bobb_o:
Can anyone help me figure out why my battery is draining so fast? I'm using Apex with this kernel.

Here's screen shots of my phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] otis_bartleh:
Taking a shot here, but I'm thinking it's that your reception sucks and your phone is constantly trying to get / keep a signal... That's why there is so much more awake time, and searching for a signal is one of the biggest battery suckers...

Maybe throw it airplane mode, or turn off data and see if you have the same drain with the same use?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bobb_o:
I could do that but it would be pointless because what's the use of a smartphone with no data? (This is at work where we don't have a personal/public wifi network)

I guess that could prove if it's the signal that's causing this issue though.

Edit: After a few minutes I can already tell there's a difference. I guess I'm just stuck in a bad area and it'll make my battery suffer.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] otis_bartleh:
I hear ya, no data on a smartphone does leave it handicapped... But at least you were able to maybe narrow it down...

I read a thread somewhere, can't remember where, but someone was having severe signal issues at home and someone suggested talking to a Verizon rep about a network extender... I haven't read anything about them (or even heard about them before) since I'm lucky enough to have good to decent coverage everywhere but the shooting range, where I don't really care much anyway, I just throw it in airplane mode when I get there unless I need it...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ashclepdia:
Get the app called bad ass battery monitor from play store

Open it and go to the app sucker section.

Then view the "time held awake" and "number of times waking device"

Phone app, will probably be top on list.

But check under that to see if you have any other apps that are waking device.

Usually it's an app that you have installed that is waking and holding awake due to syncing,(facebook is one of the big offenders here) this app will help you EASILY find what it is that's draining your battery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bobb_o:
I'll try it but I think it's the signal. I've been on WiFi at home all day and I'm at 10+ hours with 27% left.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] grinch247:
What I am getting with latest build:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shadowstewie:
I can tell you right now. By switching to 3G only and using Juice Defender, I'm saving so much more battery than I could have imagined realistically. Juice Defender doesnt work well switching from 2G to 4G but switching to 2G to 3G is flawless. It takes less than 7 seconds to switch instead of around 3-4 minutes if its on 4G I'm on the official 4.0.4 radios, AOKP Milestone 5, with 3.8.0 LeanKernal. I use 1200 max with 350 min on interactiveX so it shuts down cpu1 on screen shut off with 350 the max for screen off. I also set the sync on Juice Defender set for every 2 hours.

Best I've ever gotten was 2 days with a small 5-10 minute charge in the beginning when I plugged into my car for music.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tacosrdelicioso:
Nice 3800 mah battery
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] grinch247:
This is NOT a 3800 battery...however I did just order 2 X 2200 mah batteries from amazon...will post results with those afer I get them.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daimler1727:
Good day to all!

I recently noticed issues with the displaying of fonts in some areas on my Galaxy S II. As you can see, only selected areas are affected. :confused:

I really don't have any idea on what caused it. I already tried upgrading my kernel but still didn't work.

I'd appreciate so much and I'll be in debt to anyone who can help or assist me in getting rid of this.

Thank you in advanced.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bijan588:
I cracked the front glass

Touch still works fine

Where can I get a new front panel?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fosser2:
You can't. The only way you will have it fixed is to pay the fee through viewsonic. Sorry.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] collindv:
Technically not true, I broke my LCD and replaced it with one I bought on Amazon for about $75. If it is only the LCD it can be done but it's definitely not for the faint of heart. If you are determined to do it yourself send me a pm and I will dig up the link where I got mine.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fosser2:
No kidding? if you fixed the glass and stuff you should definitely make a write-up and post it. I think people would really appreciate it.

[Epic 4G Apps] Dratini:
I hope I'm not bumping this thread too much, but the one from xboxfanj doesn't work on other roms, or at least it didn't for me on CleanGB. I think thats how it is on non MIUI roms.

I use LBE privacy to disable the other one's SMS and internet usage, as well as DroidWall just for safe measure.

[Droid 2 Global Android Development] sd_shadow:
this rom has been running really good for me for about 3 weeks

edit:

Fix to keyboard not lighting up

Settings/display/advanced mode

Turn on custom

Edit other levels...

Change zeroes in keyboard to 225 or, What I did, use same numbers as screen

0 is off, 225 is brightest

The alt lock button doesn't work, just press alt twice, to lock alt

Recovery options:

After ROM is installed, when phone is rebooting the blue led flashes once, press volume down, will boot in to miui recovery

when lockscreen is on press and hold home button turns on torch,

it's a little glitchy, but it works you may have to hold home for a bit the first time

just have to tap it on and off

with miui all the apps are on the home screen, not in app drawer

if you don't like this just install Go Launcher EX, or Launcher Pro

there's a slight update/ change to this Rom

MIUI 4 D2G DC Edition

changes are small for the most part

you can add a shortcut or a button action to change the camera button

there has been a negative review to this version

I was able to change the homescreen wallpaper, but not the lockscreen wallpaper

I'm seeing significantly worse battery life with this update. Now I'm going by feel rather than fact. But I know it's not as good. I'm running stock and rooted. I may consider going back if this persists. Thoughts??

Could have something to do with the Verizon Location Agent that apparently the OTA had in it, it's on this page, look it up.
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
yep, mines crap after the OTA. really annoying me.
[HTC Rezound] Hag77:
Haven't spent enough time with it yet to notice. Perhaps price paid for boosted signal strength?

Yeah I saw that from jayoch's post as a matter of fact. I froze that app and still... I burned through 2 standard batteries today and I'm 25% into my extended! All three are 3.7s. Phone seems to run a lil hotter than it did. hmmm...

I ran the OTA and afterward flashed my previous kernel, and reflashed my previous custom rom (RezRom 1.5) and I've been unplugged since 5:00 AM this morning.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] chanb0:
I bought Mini pro 2 weeks ago. After trying to flash all the kernel, custom rom in Development box. In my opinion :

1) Kernel:

- All KRSH, Boof, Rage ... are fine. Who care CPU overclock should flash KRSH but I don't know why KRSH without wifi module and anoying to add wlan module after flash.

- Boof: is fine with .62 FW, CWM still version 4 but enough for everyone who just need root and CWM.

btw, all kernel to use volume back but boof use power button to enter CWM.

- Kernel build in CM7: work fine, but why don't use the unique Kernel for all CM version ?

2) Custom Rom

Still now, I can not say there is a good custom rom for me.

- Hybrom v11: boot loop right away at the first time install. with all kernel, I tried.

- CM9: many errors, people already noticed.

- CM7.x: simple, fast but without google app (market, maps, email...) I tried all the market apk but can not work, stop when add account then exit.

it's seem like CM want everybody to forget android is not from Google.

Finally

All I need is simple rom with basic funtion, long beterry life. So I choose original stock and Titanium backup to uninstall stock app. Mini pro become faster and smooth.

SE give mini pro little batterry but many many game, syn, SE app combine in system. wft.

In future I intend to buy Xperia Ion or Xperia S, if stock rom like this, Im sure to optimize again.

How about you?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] bokrug:
Hi, regarding cm7 rom, i tried 7.1.0.2 and it bootlooped (as noticed elsewhere, in development section i think), but 7.1.0.1 worked fine incl. gapps. Some problems with keyboard (no lights) and soft buttons (too bright backlight), but sorted out using some config tweaking.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] chanb0:
Hi, for gapps incl I try this way:

extract CM 7.2..zip file, add Google app into system/app/ then zip again. I found that Android Market (veding.apk) need google service framework, patner, sync.. apk to run normal.

As u mentioned 7.1.0.2 boot loop, I met too.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] bokrug:
Acording to wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Sony_Ericsson_Xperia_Mini_Pro:_Full_Update_Guide , you should install gapps (download zip from cyanogenmod dl page) using ClockWork Recovery, right after installing ROM. Worked just fine.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] outrage_uk:
I know its an old phone now, but my friend gave me this one to update, and it took a while for me to figure it out (used to my Evo 3D)... so ive put this together to help anyone wishing to S-OFF and can't work it out...

*** This is for

GSM ONLY

. Don't try it if your not sure or you'll brick your phone ***

This is what I did to get S-OFF...

Download Modaco's SPL HBoot 1.76.2007 and move it to your SD Card.

Download Clockworkmod Recovery 2.5.0.7, rename it to " recovery.img " and move it to your SD Card.

Download UniversalAndroot and move it to your SD Card.

Download ES File Explorer from the market (or any other file explorer).

Download Android Terminal Emulator from the market.

Enable installing from SD Card.. (Settings -> Applications -> tick Unknown Sources)

Open ES File Explorer and install Universal Androot.

Run it and press Root :-) ...

It should say.. "Woot ! Your device is rooted !" ... close the program.

Open Android Terminal Emulator, and type " su " . Press enter.

Allow SuperUser access.

Type " flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img " and press enter.

It should just show a $ sign on a new line.

Power off your phone, remove and replace your battery and press and hold the Home button while pressing Power.

Your phone will load into Clockworkmod Recovery.

Select " install zip from sdcard ", then " choose zip from sdcard ". Select " update-hero-hboot-1.76.2007-signed.zip ". Press Back, Back and " reboot system now ".

Leave the phone to update HBoot. Do not interrupt it. (It restarts a few times)

Once done, the phone will restart and load as normal. Check the HBoot version by going into HBoot again (turn off, hold Volume - and Power) and it will hopefully show S-OFF, Hboot 1.76.2007. Job done.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Tenpin:
Great guide, very simplistic and understandable. Thanks for this!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Habarug:
Yeah, it was nice, now I just need a reason to get S-OFF :P
[Hero, G2 Touch General] nadliw:
Greeting...

Since i have Rooted my Hero and Flashing ROM, I never knew we can/must do S-OFF.

I'm a bit curious...is it necessary S-OFF for Hero? Any advantages?

From my little understanding it just to make control of our Hero's partition.

Correct me if I'm wrong.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] outrage_uk:
S-On (Security-On) - is HTC's final resort for locking certain parts of the phone.

With S-On, the NAND section of your phone is locked and will fail to install software (and sometimes gain root access) depending on which ROM and phone your using. On some phones (not sure about Hero) you have to install a separate boot image with fastboot to let you install a custom, non HTC ROM, as it isn't from a signed HTC source.

With S-Off (Security-Off), you have full write access to all partitions on your phone, can gain permanent root, and all ROMs / boot / radios / recoverys should install successfully.

It doesn't appear that most Hero users need S-Off to allow you to install custom ROMs, but as I wanted to update the radio version, I chose to. :)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] aleksandar.1:
my hero has a hboot with s-on, and i can update radio images. If u want, i can upload the hboot i have..
[Hero, G2 Touch General] outrage_uk:
I have given the Hero back to my friend now after updating... :)

Things have changed between the Hero and Evo 3D, but when I use something, I want to have full control on what I can do, not to be forced into not been able to do or access certain things.

Although, I can understand why HTC implemented Hboot Security, careless use with S-Off (flashing wrong images or disconnecting too early) - and you will brick your phone. :cool:
[Hero, G2 Touch General] sydikm:
thanks this guide works perfect for my htc hero
[Hero, G2 Touch General] AntonioTrindade:
I think I'm lucky, then...

I have a GSM HTC Hero bought back in 2009 and just recently heard this S-OFF issue.

Only recently I checked and my boot loader is in S-ON state.

However, I never had a problem installing whatever I wanted on it.

In fact, the phone was rooted a few days after buying it and it remains rooted as of now! I even had to re-install the official HTC 1.6 firmware because I installed a non-compatible recovery ROM...

I wonder if any of this has to do with the fact that I purchased it without a SIM lock...
[Hero, G2 Touch General] javy1986:
Working great! Even if you are on 2.1 use the 1.5/1.6 option in androot. otherwise rooting will not work. (even though it says "Woot blabla")

Hi im getting flash_image not found in the emulator am stuck please help.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] chlorinekid:
can i just ask what might be a noob question about this whole process...

once this phone is rooted and has s-off will this open it up to putting any network sim card in it? i do have an old htc hero but it's currently locked to t mobile uk as it's an old contract phone.

thanks in advance..
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Nuustik:
S-OFF allows you to execute certain commands and gain access to the NAND partition of the phone.

In order to unlock your phone, you must buy an unlock code somewhere (I've heard them being about 5€, correct me if I'm wrong).
[Hero, G2 Touch General] chlorinekid:
Thanks for the explanation. Appreciated.

To be honest I'm a bit surprised that there's not a way to remove the sim lock through another method. Having played around with unlocking my sensation and flashing cyanogenmod it just seems like there's nothing you can't do with these phones these days..!

Thanks again..
