You could try: turning sync off, disabling system apps such as Talk and email exchange, using a low brightness instead of auto, setting sleep @ 15 seconds, wifi and data off when screen is off, disabling bugmailer, using smartassv2 governor instead of ondemand @ 1ghz, undervolting by -25mV with each step except for 100mhz (leave it at 925mV, depends on your device), and turning Google location off.

I have all that enabled and my battery life can withstand a ****ing Ice age.
[Vibrant Android Development] Dougfresh:
i could agree a bit with kracker. aopk and codename are great roms but tend to suck volts.It's been mentioned already, in the past. Will I change roms because of this?Hell no...lol If you haven't bought a $12 (or less)backup battery on amazon or eBay, what are you waiting for!
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
Maybe? I told neo how to fix it right after he posted yesterday, I think its in page2 of his thread? He has the info if he wants to implement it.

That's another example of how our GPS's are different. I am getting locks after deep sleep, and I have always thought my own GPS to be absolute trash, and now it just works with the updated Platypus kernel.

Yeah both roms are Kangs of AOKP. I can't speak for neo's source, but mine is the AOKP crespo build. I didn't rebrand mine, want to make it clear its Romanbb's work, but that's about the difference. I think the talk is because mine came out a day or two before neo's, but I know he's working from his own source, or the mounting would be working. :D Not pickin, just sayin.

Actually no, even with deep sleep enabled. On previous kernel's, I had to keep deep sleep off, my screen would always hang.

Maybe the kernel isn't cooperating?

EDIT - Battery life is nowhere near Froyo standards, but you've got to let it calibrate. I've seen it go to 80% in an hour and a half, but that same day, I stayed in the 30's for over three hours. The battery won't read accurately for at least a couple of deep cycles.
[Vibrant Android Development] krackerjac:
I'm talking bout it just sitting there in sleep nothing on. No wifi sync data no apps its naked (testing) beta 1 prefect beta 2 battery drain and I know how to flash. Maybe my phone allergic???

Notification LEDs

I saw in another part of the thread where some were turning this off with NSTools or something else. I have my phone put away sometimes for a few hours where I can't use it and if I get notifications it sucks the battery. Tried playing with setting the timer to like 30secs, and then unchecking the NSTools Service for notification checkbox under Settings but not sure that's the right combo. as it doesn't seem to change anything...the LEDs stay on.
[Vibrant Android Development] krackerjac:
Kool I'll try 2-3days to calibrate battery...
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
I'm trying to do the same thing, but I haven't been on a single flash for more than a day here lately. :D
[Vibrant Android Development] jr67:
I have the same issue with the touch key backlights. No matter what NSTools setting I tried it didn't make a difference. Also occasionally when I turn my phone on the backlights would come on and stay on. The only way to turn it off is to reset the backlight timeout setting in the Galaxy S Setting app. It only happens when I have NSTools installed.
[Vibrant Android Development] eric7:
Have you tried Ram Manager?? I been using it since RC1.2 and never had any random reboot since then.
[Vibrant Android Development] ddanc1984:
Set your minimum RAM limit in ROM Control/Performance to a higher value. The default is like 40 or something. I run mine at 75 or 80. Also another thing that seemed to help is to set Scrolling cache to Force Disable. I've had a couple of random reboots but it's been a hung app I think.
[Vibrant Android Development] Woody:
Thanks fellas. Will see what I can do.
[Vibrant Android Development] ddanc1984:
For battery:

Have you calibrated your battery? Have you run through at least two charging cycles?

For lag:

What CPU tweaks are you using? LiveOC? Governor?

Have you set your minimum RAM setting in ROM Control/Performance?

Try setting Scroll Cache to Force Disable.

How many and what apps are you running when you say you have lag?
[Vibrant Android Development] Annex1:
I use Battery Calibration.apk everyday once it reaches 100%

Phone has been flawless.
[Vibrant Android Development] Woody:
Annex, can I pick your brain on something? The lock screen icons, you can change them but every type of file that I try to put in there get rejected. I have tried jpeg, pngs, 9pngs and nothing works. Ideas, thoughts?
[Vibrant Android Development] Annex1:
Not sure, I never changed them, I just left those alone... But I'm gonna try it right now and see what happens and I'll let you know. I don't know they are regular pngs though so far
[Vibrant Android Development] jgoe:
edit: i had installed "thepsynshift" theme and found it to be the problem.

thanks guys for your reply

Maybe go into Titanium and try the wipe data option for Google Play Store...

@Woodrube

I just changed the image of 1 of the locksceens and it works(chnage the color). Not sure why yours rejects it.

Just captured before lockscreen closed :)
[Vibrant Android Development] Woody:
Not sure why either. I am using QuickPic and not the gallery if that makes a difference.

Here is how I am doing it. Maybe missing something. Go into Rom Control and go to lockscreen options. Scroll down to the 2 there. I have phone and sms. Touch far right icon and it pulls up dialog box with Root Explorer and QuickPic. I can click on either and go to my gallery/file and pick the icon I want to put in replace. Hit it and it says, "file note set, Icon not changed".
[Vibrant Android Development] Annex1:
Oh, I'm an ass. lol

I thought you were themeing it. I changed mine through the APK.I didn't try the rom control... let me check it through that and I'll let you know in a sec

Edit:

NOPE didn't work for me

Anybody else on 1.4 with build 34 kernel get hot? I just noticed this today and yesterday. I was talking on the phone yesterday for about 5 min and it got super hot! While on the web right now its getting pretty hot too. I was on 1.3 with slim kernel before and it wasn't like that. Great from btw
[Vibrant Android Development] Annex1:
Mine has got hot yet... Are you browsing web without wifi?
[Vibrant Android Development] Woody:
That's cool. Would be handy for that to work. Wonder what the problem is. I can just re-theme the apk, I was just looking for something on the fly so to say. Thanks for checking it for me though.
[Vibrant Android Development] Dougfresh:
There's two touch points, on the left is to choose app or activity and on right is to change icons for the particular app/activity
[Vibrant Android Development] Woody:
Doug, can you change yours. Just curoius if it is my Icons files or if it is ROM (Control) specific. Annex can't change his icons either within ROM Control.
[Vibrant Android Development] Annex1:
Awesome. I Apex udated and now I have to re-theme it... YES! :rolleyes:
[Vibrant Android Development] mryounghc:
No I'm using wifi. I have the ripple effect lock screen if that makes a diff. I did have the sphynshif before but I got rid of it because it slowed me down
[Vibrant Android Development] Annex1:
Hmm, not sure what is causing it. But I'll look around and see if I find anything
[Vibrant Android Development] Dougfresh:
Nope ! Doesn't change as of yet..Also if you're on the two point aosp lockscreen,you could only change the activity for the left (right is always unlock) :)
[Vibrant Android Development] icarianecho:
Where'd you see the update Annex?

Most recent update I can find is 3/19 (1.0.3beta)

Edit: 10/4, thx#
[Vibrant Android Development] Annex1:
On the market. I just reverted it.

I think thats the one I updated to... I normally don't update my apps cuz I'm always themeing them, so when I update them, they go back to normal
[Vibrant Android Development] lapdog101:
the only time i noticed heat was when i had gps and blutooth while doing other things. Turni g off gps did the trick

For those of us that have been around long enough, this comment was simply funny. I doubt he was trying to be hurtful. I don't think X could help himself.

It's the new ages old debate as to whether it works. Just like "tastes great" vs "less filling". :confused:

It's also like Big Foot, the Fountain of Youth, and the Tooth Fairy. Some say they've seen it. :eek:

I'm currently running Euphoria RC2.1 and I am in desperate need to try out some Royale with Cheese but I read somewhere here that you need to flash the kernal first or something like that cause it won't install correctly...is that true...I want to be able to just do the usual wipe wipe flash and reboot to get my taste of this delicious ROM...
[Vibrant Android Development] Mostdef:
I have never heard about flashing kernel first. Just flash the 1.4 rom no need to flash kernel first. I recommend follow instructions in OP.
[Vibrant Android Development] dougc405:
Yes, you must flash the sub zero kernel first. Otherwise, the ROM won't recognize the device and will fail to install. Device is "vibrant" on Euphoria, not "SGH-T959".

Flash the kernel, reboot into Recovery, and install the ROM.
[Vibrant Android Development] Mostdef:
Who said that it must be flash sub zero first? I have not seen andybody having problem flashing rom
[Vibrant Android Development] lancec50:
I did going from 1.3 to 1.4. I had Slim Kernel 2.8 running with 1.3 and every time I tried to install it would abort. Then I installed Subzero kernel and it installed without a problem. It should install fine if you have Glitch kernels.

Ice Creamed Vibrant
[Vibrant Android Development] roly17:
Me too. It put me into a bootloop with the slim kernel, luckily I had glitch on my sd so I just flashed that first while still in recovery.
[Vibrant Android Development] mikesdot:
so is it an easy flash of the kernal???cause I never tried to flash a kernal before...just reboot into recovery do the usual wipe wipe flash kernal first and then flash the ROM and then I should be OK???
[Vibrant Android Development] lapdog101:
also there is a kernel cleaning script(flashable) in the op. I would d'load that, as well as a subzero kernel flash the cleaning script and then flash the kernel
[Vibrant Android Development] mikesdot:
yes I did see that...that was going to be my next question...thanks a lot
[Vibrant Android Development] shreddintyres:
just remember that after running the cleaning script you MUST flash a kernel next do not reboot after flashing the cleaning script or you will run into some very unfortunate problem, leaving Odin or heimdall as your only option.

- cheers
[Vibrant Android Development] mikesdot:
oh man I'm scared...sorry I'm relatively noob to this flashing thing...so please just bare with me...so I just reboot into recovery...wipe wipe wipe...flash the cleaning script...flash MP's subzero kernal...(which I can't find...can someone please point me where I can find it)...flash ICZen rc1.4...reboot...settle...reboot and enjoy???

thanks in advance...y'all always been very helpful here...
[Vibrant Android Development] roly17:
Download everything you need to internal sd (kernel cleaning script-mp's kernel-iczenwich)

Reboot into recovery

run cleaning script

flash mp kernel (look in his signature on an earlier post)

follow Brick'd install instructions for zenwich

Bingo, you should be good to go after that.

here is a link to MP kernel http://goo.gl/HqvM9
[Vibrant Android Development] Woody:
I was just getting ready to post that he is on his phone doing this mobile-style so he can't see signature. Good looking out Richcar

Edit::Mikesdot RC1.4 comes with MP's #33 kernel, so just download that one first for your initial kernel flash and then once you get fully booted up in RC1.4 you will have the same kernel.
[Vibrant Android Development] mikesdot:
thanks to all...here goes nothing...hopefully my next post will be from ICZen's Royale with Cheese
[Vibrant Android Development] lancec50:
I'm confused about flashing just a kernel. Saw some posts that said to run cleaning script flash kernel then flash ICZen. If you flash ICZen it comes with a kernel. Subzero #33. If I flash just a kernel I use cleaning script then flash kernel then reboot. If you are not running ICZen then those instructions aren't the same as the OP.

Ice Creamed Vibrant
[Vibrant Android Development] Woody:
If you are already on Zen then just flash away. If you are coming from Slim or Euphoria, then it might get wonky b/c of the Kiss/Slim kernels not working well with Zen. Yes RC1.4 does come with #33 but Mikesdot was coming from Euphoria, so he probably has one of the Kiss kernels native on his phone. Then there's Glitch...

FWIW, I have never used the kernel cleaning script (I think MP might already have it built in but don't quote me on that) and have flashed several of MP's kernels while I have been on Zen.
[Vibrant Android Development] dougc405:
Here is the original warning for users coming from Euphoria or Passion.
[Vibrant Android Development] lancec50:
My bad I missed him coming from Euphoria. I had to flash Subzero to flash 1.4. Slim kernel didn't play nice with going from 1.3 to 1.4. I use the cleaning script just for piece of mind. I think Glitch has a built in cleaning script.

Ice Creamed Vibrant
[Vibrant Android Development] mikesdot:
wats up everyone...thanks for the help...I'm now running the latest and greatest ICS ROM out there ICZen rc.1.4 and I'm loving it...thanks to everyone who helped me come from Euphoria to get me running this smooth as butter ROM...

For the next build, I wonder how Br1cK'd will top Royale with Cheese? Maybe ... ICZen rc1.5 - The Shizzle Dizzle? :cool:
[Vibrant Android Development] Mostdef:
I found a app for "Facebook contacts sync" only to add account & sync in the setting. Work great. I dont use "Facebook for android" app cause of huge battery drain But this app dont drain as long you disable the sync. This app work great on ICS for those who want your facebook friend to add on your contacts list.

Im thinking Royale Cheese With No Pickles 1.5 or $5 Dollar Shake 1.5
[Vibrant Android Development] Annex1:
$5 shake sounds funny. I like it
[Vibrant Android Development] mr_psycho:
So the technical reason for flashing specific kernels before IC Zen is that some of the properties in the CWM recovery's default.prop file are not recognized by the updater-script's assert check.

IC Zen checks for "vibrant", "vibrantmtd", or "SGH-T959" in one of two locations, "ro.product.device" or "ro.build.product".

So far, what I have verified is that with Slim and Passion kernels, those have default.prop files populated with things like "galaxysmtd" or "GT-I9000". However, at least with the latest Euphoria kernel (v6.5.1), these have been changed to the normal Vibrant equivalents.

Therefore, with Euphoria + kernel v6.5.1, you should be able to flash IC Zen without problems. Glitch kernels are also okay.

I have not used that kernel cleaning script either, and Woodie is right. I do have some kernel cleanup included with my installation script already. Enough that it shouldn't cause problems if you don't run a more thorough kernel cleaning script.

Subzero Build 34

Anyone else on subzero build 34 having heat issue?? GPS/BT/Wifi is off. After having the screen on for 3 to 5 min the upper part of the screen gets really hot, so last night I flashed back to build 18 and heat is gone.
[Vibrant Android Development] Mostdef:
Im on build #34. I have not feel any heat even my Wifi/Gps/BT is on. If your is overclock. I suggest turn down a little.
[Vibrant Android Development] mr_psycho:
No. You still need the regular Facebook app for the sync to work. I think in previous Android versions, there was Samsung Touchwiz support for Facebook in a widget, so that's why you could add the Facebook account to sync without actually having the Facebook app installed.

I used to use "Friends Sync" for a bit with Facebook, but I'm not using it anymore.

With IC Zen RC1.4, I still have Facebook sync working. Maybe Roman has that integrated into AOKP already. Mine doesn't seem to be draining the battery.

MP
[Vibrant Android Development] eric7:
Nope, I had never over clocked my phone, stock all the time.
[Vibrant Android Development] mr_psycho:
Once in a while I notice some heat, too. Not sure if it's a process that is going wonky or what. I think flashing back to previous builds mask the issue, because the reboots during the flash process are starting up all the processes with a clean slate.

I'm still trying to determine what it is that causes the heat, but not sure if I will ever truly figure it out.

MP
[Vibrant Android Development] eric7:
I noticed that build 18 is better for battery too, will try 26 & 33 in next few days.
[Vibrant Android Development] Mostdef:
MP dont you think you should go back to #18 with V/C build. Everybody love the V/C input
[Vibrant Android Development] Woody:
I was getting killer battery life on # 26, but then RC1.4 came out and now I am on my 3rd cycle through #33 and am hovering around 24hrs with a good amount of use (bordering on heavier than normal).

1200/200 (no UV) sio/Conservative and Juice Defender+

You know I loved VC for sound and the color looks great but that Green Ghost just pisses me off b/c I have this awesome phone running ICS and everytime I lock the screen I get a flawed flash. I know I can find the sweet spot to get rid of it, but I'm not wanting to spend all that time on it. CM color works just as good (although I can't figure out how to save the settings after reboot).
[Vibrant Android Development] Mostdef:
The voodoo color give me a great color on camera/video. It give me a sharper and colorful picture and video too
[Vibrant Android Development] kevho00:
Ok so lets get this down.

How are all of you guys getting like 24 hrs of battery on stock battery?

what are your OC/UC settings?

I would like to know also! I get around 6-7 hours heavy usage, no oc...
[Vibrant Android Development] Woody:
Won't stick for some reason. When I reboot, they all end up getting pushed to the far right. I've tried a few different times and nothing seems to stick. Oh well, I'll keep trying to see if it is something that I am doing wrong.

Go to my battery guide in the Q& A section and in the 3rd post is how JD+ works. Using that and correlation with my screen off when I an listening to music or a baseball game, it saves a ton on the display side of things, as well as data.

I have a screenie that I was going to post last night with 26+hrs of use but for some reason it won't upload on the app. I'll have to put it on with my PC when I get home later on. If you use JD+ correctly, you will get a ton more battery life.

My OC/gov settings are a few posts up.

[Vibrant Android Development] mr_psycho:
Probably because I didn't have some stuff integrated, yet. Or GPS was broke. lol

Man. I don't even remember what I had in the kernel back then.

Not sure why you can't save settings. Whatever I had setup in AriesParts was saving for me. Have you tried setting the CM color tuning options in ROM Control?

Yeah. I mean whatever works for you. Whether it's Voodoo or CM. Just go with it. The kernel will ship with both.

http://www.androidauthority.com/trend-micro-longevity-app-review-65402/
[Vibrant Android Development] Woody:
Probably operator error. Wonder is wipe cache with something like Cache Cleaner NG would effect that? Hmm, I will see if I can exclude that from the list of apps and see if that works.

Rom Control works but will reset at boot too. Might just go back to VC and try to find that sweet spot. Just a PITA.
