battery and browser and lag

Hey bricks etc all

Been using the new rc4.2 release today... for the most part its very nice,not sure about why such poor battery life? I fully charged before flashing followed exact procedures (came from froyo Zen 2.2 - amazing battery life) etc. I'm attaching a screen of battery usage from a full 100%:charge on a 1800mah battery,quite a bit more than the stock 1500mah. I haven't really used my phone much today, the CPU is running stock speed, I even have it undervolted at -25 for all frequencies.

Is there a better kernel for battery? I don't care about overclocking, although its been a bit laggy.

Also noticing weird browser activity like no thread search button in XDA and when typing in fields the cursor jumps around randomly? Like if I press to amend text in this message it will not set the cursor where I need it, and I have to go searching through the message then manually drag it to where I need it.

As I've typed this message and did a couple of things over the last 15 minutes, I've lost nearly 10%!!!!! Its literally like watching a sink of water emptying before my eyes when i use the phone and just voracious even when its off! Do I need to wipe battery stats or will improve over time?

[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
Let the battery calibrate through a couple of cycles, all you have is software that doesn't know how much charge the battery really has, give it a day or two to learn, and you will see better results.

Jumping cursor, I haven't seen that one yet, and I type a while lot with my phone. That's an odd one, anyone have any advice?

@Globespy

not sure about your battery drain. Has to be a bad flash. I am.at 16 hours of use with 37% left. Also you said you had lag . I am using smartass gov at 1000/ 200 with no lag and no uv. Since you followed op instructions it has to be a bad flash imo.

2G Toggle?

I have been following this thread closely, and I haven't seen this addressed in the OP or throughout the posts...

I just noticed this today as this was the first time attempting: I have the 2G toggle in my pull-down notification bar. I noticed that when I click it, it is highlighted, but it doesn't actually change the setting to 2G only. If I long press it, it will open the Mobile Network Settings, but it will not place a checkmark in the Use only 2G networks field (and vice versa). Is that the point of this toggle? Just to be able to open the menu to check 2G only on and off, or is it actually supposed to adjust this for me?
[Vibrant Android Development] Dougfresh:
Are you on icy zen 1.2 or icssgs 4.2? Your post says 4.2. Icssgs is laggy since they moved to deodex rom..
[Vibrant Android Development] shdw03:
Been using Pandora. I'll try remove dsp to see if that works. Even on Google music same thing.

On bt phone, sound through the speaker sounds distorted and needed to mute/unmute for caller to hear me. Said I was cutting out
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
I didn't even notice that, he did say 4.2

Globespy are you on ICSSGS 4.2 or ICZen rc 1.2?

You're right, it doesn't do anything. I'll have to add that tot he OP and hit up Romanbb, see if we can fix that for us.
[Vibrant Android Development] Dougfresh:
So can we all confirm that the swagger toggle is just a joke..
[Vibrant Android Development] shreddintyres:
as of right now, yes it is, tho it is notated on the AOKP site that it will eventually have a purpose, what who knows, knowing roman itll prlly send unicorns prancing around your screen. but for now its just a lil rom humor.
[Vibrant Android Development] Globespy:
ICZen rc 1.2 - sorry my bad on the numbering system, been looking at too many ROMs!

Clean install, with only a couple of basic apps, that I know are not battery eaters or system dominators.

---------- Post added at 09:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:42 PM ----------

I'm using conservative gov. Maybe that's why it's a little slow especially on first use after its been in the pocket for a while?

I'll try a few days to let the battery adjust....It's charging now and I will wipe battery stats in recovery before I boot on full charge. I doubt it's a bad flash, but just my hunch after being a flash addict and have experienced much more weird stuff in the past that would likely be a bad flash, such as not doing a full wipe etc.

I'll try to take a little video of the browser jumping cursor issue..... It's very strange indeed! Never seen anything like it.

I'll report back in a few days.

I had a bad feeling about that thread(red/green/blue one). I think you're the second person that has bootlooped on those. I bootlooped on a unproven mod yesterday and reflashed the rom and gapps and then AB with zero fc.Reflashed rom after and tried Cobalt and zero fcs.

Next I'm gonna try "dubbs" one maybe tomorrow
[Vibrant Android Development] Alex9090:
framework structure seems to be the same so I don't know. May be I should flash gapps after the theme coz gallery, talk etc are the first one to force close.

Sorry guys on the bt streaming. Tried the wife's sgs4g pure stock and still f'd up. Must be a hardware issue. On a side note, was using nstools and phone was highly unstable using liveoc. Trying kiss 2.2 now but may switch back to devil
[Vibrant Android Development] ferhanmm:
@brick'd

It appears as though the speaker phone issue is a mic sensitivity thing, is there anyway to reduce mic sensitivity while on speakerphone? Passion seems to have the same issue as well
[Vibrant Android Development] Dougfresh:
Ideal.liveOC shouldn't surpass 110-112%. I usually set mine from 105-110 and bump it up to12xx or very low 1300's.Afterwards it gets unstable and locks

Btw kiss to me gets even more unstable, but results vary from phone to phone

I just flashed ICSZen rc1.2...and yup out of fresh flashing, GPS only works once. I left the GPS Test running then it went to sleep. Wake it up, it does work lock into any satellite thereafter. When I reboot, it works fine again. Anyone knows why this is so? How to fix it? I did flash it exactly as shown in OP.

My GPS lock time was around 30 sec and within 20ft accuracy based on GPS Test but accuracy of 30m on GPS maps...strange

My vibrant hardware: 10.9. The GPS works consistently under Froyo for me too.

[Vibrant Android Development] mikka06:
It is a glitch kernel issue...flash another kernel(like kiss kernel) and you can do the nandroid
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
You need to install the flash player from the market

[Vibrant Android Development] mr_psycho:
If you are on the Glitched kernel, then this will just hang. As everyone else suggested, install a different kernel for the nandroid.

If, however, you are on the Devil kernel, give it a few minutes. There's a bit of lag at one (or two) places when backing up /data. I believe it has something to do with the /datadata setup we have. It will eventually resume the backup and should complete just fine.

[Vibrant Android Development] Globespy:
just a quick update on my third charge cycle (also wiped battery stats).

2 hour screen capture from system panel showing voracious battery use...most of the time the phone sitting off with as many power saving features enabled as possible. again no overclocking... but undervolted!

and this is a 1800mah battery.

back to froyo.....shame as this from is gorgeous.

http://db.tt/YayVN7bm

UPDATE!!!

I decided to try again, formatted sd card and basically cleaned everything possible left over from previous installs.

Reflashed, but this time installed the new latest icy glitch kernel, and have to say my battery issues have dramatically improved. I am leaning towards the kernel being the thing that made the difference. Whilst its not froyo zen good battery, it's perfectly liveable. Used lightly and I'm about 50% after 6 hours. And hoping that gets better with continued use and settling in after 5+ charging cycles.

And unlike others, no nandroid backup issues with glitch!

Can't wait for the next update, especially after google fix the niggling issues like the dysfunctional GPS intermittent working /not working stuff.

Thanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] ejamin73:
Yep. I'm on the glitch kernel. Is the ICS KISS V2.2 the one you're talking?

I tried the CM9 one from post #2, and that one also crashed on camera effects.

No. But some others are using the Passion Kiss kernels. I was referring to either the TeamICSSGS kernel or the Devil kernel.

Most of the reboot issues I've seen were related to over-clocking. This is the first I've heard of rebooting to recovery. Which kernel are you using?

Devil 14.2 (included in Rom) Haven't touched performance options, and haven't used any type of 3rd party overclocking app. The issue has really got me confused; never rebooted to recovery before this string of events. I did clean wipe per the instructions in the OP. Other then this rebooting, I'm very very pleased with this setup.

Should i reflash the kernel individually? Is there some kind cleaning script available? Maybe I have some kind of conflict. No clue.

Hey guys, I upgraded from 1.1 to 1.2. On 1.1 my battery was running forever. Now it is not. I did the proper udate steps. Not setting changes. I see now that my phone is not going into deep sleep. I have searched this forum like crazy for a fix that I know is out there. But after 13 days straight of work, I am going blind trying to find it. Can I get a little help here without being slammed as some kind of lazy noob? Oh I do know how to get rid of the nav bar in case someone has not figured it out in the last 200 questions about it.

This is a rather minor thing, but it may help to clear up some confusion down the line. In the second post for the OP there is a link to DougFresh's post with the DSPManager APK and BeatsAudio flashable. However, this version of DSPManager does not support the Voodoo Sound implementation. I would recommend instead linking to MrPsycho's post shortly thereafter for the DSPMamager that supports Voodoo Sound tweaks.

Cheers.

Okay bricked. Some other feedback. Outside of the issues mentioned. I was getting the extreme batt drain as well and it seemed to have picked up last night. Flashed glitch kernel to see if that changed anything but it didn't.

I did restore a nandroid and it updated a number of notifications that I didn't get with zen. Such as youmail messages and emails through the email apk.

All incoming calls would ring twice then go mute.

On some calls, screen would freeze but I'm guessing that this is kernel related as glitch didn't have this problem. Both were running 200-1000 smartv2.

Cosmetically everything is looking well. The toggles are a bit bulky with the off/on tabs.

I actually had a ton of weirdness late last night, settings were reverting after reboots, accounts kept dropping off, and I had enough, so I started rebuilding.

Beta 2 is uploading now, new base, changed a bunch of apps and framework files, and its smoother so far, snappier if you guys can believe it.

I hear you about the toggles, thats the AOKP level of things, but if you change them to icon instead of text in Rom Control, it looks better IMO.

So Beta2 will be up soon. I'm not feeling so hot so I'm going to post it, then hit the sack for a little while. Happy Friday everyone!
[Vibrant Android Development] mr_psycho:
Good idea. I encountered some of these things, too. The inverted apps started getting hard to read, so I flashed Gapps v20120215 over it, and that smoothed out a lot for me. Some of Gapps v20120215 are v4.0.4 based (Gmail, for example).

Maybe it's time to pick up the new Gapps and start theming these? Gmail alone went from build 23xxxx to 255454.

Hope you feel better, man.
