woooa, lagfree eats your battery like a cannibal. when the screen is on, the cpu seems to always stay at the highest speed. i haven't found anything better than the default ondemand and noop setting for most uses. i like anticipatory scheduler but it has bugs, and so does my other liking, the bfq. google must have had the same reasons as me for choosing ondemand anthough not noop.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] estuardo4:
Do you recommend IncrediControl for managing the governor and I/O scheduler too? Or do I keep using NoFrillsCPU?

It seems that IncrediControl is made by the same team as the ones that make SetXperia. And Setxperia was not working well for me.

Anyway, thank you.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] hootnath:
BTW i just reinstalled doomkernel cuz of the two-way call recording n am trying to move my apps to the sd card, but it keeps on rebooting on every try. there is something seriously messed up with its i/o mods. i have it on the standard noop.

---------- Post added at 08:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:59 PM ----------

also, is there a way to use the system partition's empty space for cache or swap? maybe via a loop file? i have 215mb space free in mine (using jj's rom). it'd be nice to get it to use. or have some customMTD thing so the thing can be repartitioned giving more space to the data partition.

+1 me on this, people.

ok, i hadn't even finished changing the voltage yet and it rebooted again. wth. apparantly there is something up with the touchscreen mods or the android-system/os (framework) the touchscreen stops responding n then the system reboots. with doomkernel i have been unable to run the device for more than 2 minutes at a dpi other than 240. i also happen to have low-storage, i dunno if thats whats causing the retarts (maybe doomkernel+beta rom doesnt like my low-storage)

update: it seemed to be rebooting constantly only when the blue onscreen buttons were installed. i've used both jj's framework n ka's

update: ok, thats not true, it just crashed again within 2 mins of my last update.

update: ok, after a whole night of losing two full charges to constant recharging, no more call-recording for me ... just uninstalled the doomkernel v4 . replaced by doomlord's advanced stock kernel (cuz of the init.d support)

update: god damn it, even my stock kernel is rebooting now on its own. ****e. time to try a different dpi

update: its confirmed, it was the dpi. running doomkernel v4 for over an hour now at 240dpi without any problems
[Xperia Arc Android Development] vulkanxxv:
Sorry, I've forgot scheduler settings: bfq!

Battery life: about two days (strong usage: wifi constantly active/bluetooth also/conspicuous phone calls/out of wifi coverage - 3G)

---------- Post added at 10:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:57 PM ----------

I will try your suggestion!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] estuardo4:
Thank you for sharing your findings with lagfree.

Between lagfree that eats battery like crazy when the screen is on, and the wifi drivers that use the battery when the screen is off, my Arc is only lasting 3 or 4 hours on. Now I know why.

Thank both of you
[Xperia Arc Android Development] hellocng:
I think there is a need for everyone to see this thread, instead of just evaluating by observations. This will make some sense to the observed behaviors and we can maybe hypothesize about what part of the kernel might be not functioning well and how we can address some issues like crashes, slow performance and poor battery life.

If anyone thinks this is too much to quote, I can edit this post and remove it and people can directly go to the thread linked above to see the information themselves. I just thought this would be more convenient.

Now for the practical applications given this information, we can visit the battery stats in the system app to find out what is sucking all the battery. I believe for us, the screen is the control and all other processes are the variables as we all have the same screen but the processes will be handled differently because of IO schedulers and governors.

For example, slow media playback could be because you're using CFQ and it does not prioritize media. Or you're using SmartassV2 so you have better battery life because your phone spends majority of the time with screen off and there is a set ideal freq when your phone sleeps. If we look further at what is waking our devices, we can choose a better governor and/or profile to suit your usage/needs.

One of the main concern for me is battery drain during sleep so in SetCPU, I have a profile to limit the freq of the CPU and have a suitable governor. As I find out more about how I use my device, I will be choosing a more appropriate governor for my performance/battery needs.

Currently, I'm on ICELite, 134 to 1017 Mhz, InteractiveX, deadline. No problems. Android OS under 27% battery use. Screen is 53%. At first glance it might seem like my screen is using a lot of energy but that cant be since we all use the same screen, it is just that my Android OS is using a lot less in comparison, which is good.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] hootnath:
whats the temperature where you are? resistance n current flow also depends on the temperature, i am going to still try these settings now that i've found out why my android was crashing n have doomkernel back on.

update: ok, i tried your settings and it crashed. what governor are you using?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] pollob666:
Boot Manager in ICS Beta kernel

Hey DooM,

I was wondering, if it was possible to include your BootManager and Touch recovery in this kernel...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] hootnath:
and

ZRAM and cleancache mods also, please
[Xperia Arc Android Development] DooMLoRD:
the ICS branch requires some work to properly recognize touch events... we are working on it...

both are already integrated
[Xperia Arc Android Development] johnbarleycorn:
I have not checked the temperatures, but not hot to touch.

The only governor stable (in my arc s) is Ondemand it's crashing a lot less than others, while smartassV2 is the most unstable of all.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] spida_singh:
What programs are you guys using to set your i/o, CPU and governor?

I used to use Setxperia, but had issues setting certain governors, i moved to CPU control light, and was able to successfully set CPU governor to smartassV2.

But CPU control light doesn't let me under volt, even though the kernel allows it, just need a good app which lets me set i/o schedule, cpu voltage at boot.

Currently on SmartassV2 at 1.4 GHZ using noop, no UV, and everything is perfect.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] funiewski:
I use Systune, working without problems,uv,oc,io

how does one activate the zram, manage its settings or use it? in my cyanogenmod for my g1 there were compcache n swap settings.

When you say you're facing some wifi and BT issues - does that mean the wifi will never "sleep" ?

I'm using your modules v4 and your v4 kernel. But it seems the wifi is always on, even when the phone is "sleeping"

Love doom's work from x10 to arc. But miss the Sony logo on boot. Can anyone pm a kernel modified with original logo. Seen the unpack tools. But has anyone already done it? 2ghz version.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] cined:
I'm after some help please. I want to install a custom ICS ROM. I've just unlocked my bootloader and now I want to flash this kernal.

Do I need to install some stock ICS Firmware before I flash this kernal? Because I can't seem to find stock ICS firmware for the arc s.

Thanks
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Crocodile1973:
No. Just use fastboot to flash this kernel, then go into recovery and flash your Rom. If you already have one best backup then wipe before flashing.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ascariz:
how to disable auto mount as media storage in this kernel? the deep sleep not so good. 30% load at minimum cpu. advance stock ics kernel has better load than this, 3-7% at minimum.

I flashed doomkernel V04 for ICS with modules for wifi...I was going to flash FXP115 CM 9.0 so flashed the kernel included in zip file.but the screen was black after turning on the phone,nothing happened,so I flashed doomkernel again & everything is ok.what is the point?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] DooMLoRD:
CM and stock kernels are different... u should not mix the two...

since sony released their kernel sources for xperia s will we get a .35 kernel for the arc s ?

and what are the new features in the kernel and the the 3.0 kernel??

[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yash_p90:
For Wildfire you can try out RemPuzzle. Froyo 2.2.1. It is a sense-based ROM. It has a good battery life and is extremely smooth.

Or you can also try out a latest nightly from the Nightly Builds Thread. GB 2.3.7. CM7 has never been smooth for me on my Wildfire but it also has a good battery life. You can try it.

And no stable MIUI for Wildfire.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nishantsikri@gmail.com:
cm7 or miui
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] depende70:
Of course, for taste ......

After trying many roms, for me that does not give problems is the original of Cianogen Froyo.Las have always given me problems of synchronization of Bt

Greetings.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Slymobi:
For me the "best" is not available to comment on as each user has his/her own preferences. I have found that making my own version of mixed components has left me needing nothing in the Rom I've got now. Hybrid/aosp/sense all rolled into one lol. Love it.

P.s with the added pleasure of skygo when desired.

I want to know if i can do a Restore of my previous Rom by just reboot into recovery and restore the backup but since i have Hboot 1.5 can i just do that or i have to go to my Computer and Fastboot and then restore it

I have Hboot 1.5 and CWM Running Miui i want to go back to sense
[HTC EVO 3D] Will32:
I think youll need to fastboot to recovery, but try it without doing that, so we'll all know, take one for the team. Worst case is it wont boot and you'll have to fastboot to recovery.
[HTC EVO 3D] thos25:
If there is a different kernel involved, no. if not, then you'll be ok.
[HTC EVO 3D] yankee minaj:
Well yea its a miui kernel so nop i wont take one for the team this time...

Thanx guys :)
[HTC EVO 3D] gilbydakid:
yes you can even with a different kernel. just restore and flash a stock kernel with flash gui.

i've done it a few times now.

Should be simple enough- install either the wifi.zip fix for your kernel or rom.If he says you dont need it(in his rom thread),then try the kernel wifi fix,as I needed that to get wifi working when I was running DKv06.

Download/stick it in sdcard and flash it via xrecovery.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] POQbum:
So I noticed there is far more development going on in another forum (droidrazr) than in XDA. I'm wondering why so many developers and users are there now instead of at XDA. Did XDA piss off the developers or what?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Semseddin:
Eventhough i don't visit DroidRazr as much as i do here, i feel like it is more of an home forum for Razr owners. They need to put more efforts to attract GSM Razr owners.

An humble suggestion.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] torikorocks:
Droid RAZR forum has more CDMA development and xda seems more GSM oriented

Sent from my DROID RAZR
[Motorola Droid RAZR] [TSON]:
We're not allowed to discuss the sites in a way that will encourage users to stop using XDA on here.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Brynn217:
I don't know where the problem lies.... I am sure it has something to due with rules and who produces what... maybe a certain amount of pride as well...

But in any case, the official memo from XDA is that there are far more GSA users on XDA so CDMA has not been pushed as much, thus the CDMA developers seems to have left the site for the most part....

I really don't have an answer, or an opinion... these are just whispers that may not even be true....
[Motorola Droid RAZR] R3dbeaver:
uuuh... droirzr.com has fewer threads and fewer posts in both CDMA and GSM forums.

i think theres more here in XDA.

am i missing something or just looking at the wrong site?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ectodroid:
If you are looking for CDMA roms and general motorola razr news, the "other" site is good.

For GSM users XDA is the place to be.

(imo)

Tho I think they are trying to make it bit more balanced :) we'll see.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] POQbum:
droidrazr categorized CDMA and GSM phones separately. I have a CDMA phone.. so I was pretty surprised to see 2-3 times more ROMs, themes, tweaks and all that good stuff there. I wonder why no one reposts any of it here.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] karnovaran:
Verizon is the largest carrier in the US, runs a CDMA network, and was very late to the smartphone party. With all of these factors, few subscribers to the largest US network made it over to XDA before this place got so popular. Thus development for the original Droid began on other sites and the separation of Motorola's "Droid" variants has continued to this day with new sites popping up every time a new Verizon "Droid" pops up.

I started with Android on a GSM network (T-mobile) and have preferred to stay here, but the fact is for Verizon development you're going to need to venture away from XDA.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] POQbum:
ah ok. I had (actually still have) the HTC droid incredible on verizon and XDA is by far the best place to go and the place with all the developers and community. I guess every phone is a bit different in terms of developers and community.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] seanmcd72:
There are a lot of phones out there these days... So if the bootloader isn't unlocked it's not going to get a lot of love here. I think it's such a great phone though, that eventually it will get the attention it deserves.

That being said, while there are a few decent roms available - many of them are lousy alpha ICS roms that aren't anywhere close to being ready for prime time. People are too excited to have ICS to realize the rom is not worth running 24/7. One of the dev's in particular likes to claim that "everything works" but the camera on his ICS rom, and it's not anywhere NEAR being true.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] [TSON]:
Let's just say XDA's RAZR section is completely hands-off as far as giveaways & staff participation (minus mods, they do a good job) while DroidRZR is really hands-on & all of the giveaways/contests/stuff have really won CDMA devs over, which in turn attracts lots of RAZR owners. So yeah.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Fallen Spartan:
I don't think XDA has anything against GSA or CDMA users. We encourage developers of all sorts here. It just so happens we have more GSA users on XDA.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] karnovaran:
Yeah I had an Incredible too. It's a slightly different case. HTCs have always been the most popular brand here and the Incredible benefited from being so similar to the Nexus One.
[HTC Desire S] Deleted member 2496007:
As long as you do not change the name of the backup folder you should be ok copying it over and moving it back if you need it.

Recommend using a cable to copy it instead of wifi. Any slight change or corruption will change the md5 sum and the backup will fall to restore.
[HTC Desire S] yandexx:
Yes you won't have any problems, just store it on your PC.

In fact I leave all my backups just in case something goes wrong.
[HTC Desire S] Tapur007:
I agree with the others, you can keep the Backup on the PC. :)

However, I do not find the need of it even after Reverting back to Stock (with the methods in the threads). Since, on using the RUU , the phone is just like a factory fresh phone ! U need to set everything up again (& since u r Unrooted & S-ON , u can't Restore the stock Backup as well).

{Contacts / Calendar can be synced via Google Contacts / Calendar &

SMS's can be backed up / Restored via the Inbuilt Backup & Restore of many 3rd Party Messaging Apps (e.g. Go SMS Pro) } :D

Awesome work. Can't wait to try it out:D
[LG Optimus 3D] ThiaiZ:
It is simple amazing, this I can promise. :D
[LG Optimus 3D] Evil Slayer:
sounds good :D...as always :)

so you plan on making a rom with prada...and another with spectrum?

and which one is faster(launcher and all)?
[LG Optimus 3D] ThiaiZ:
Prada is way faster, cause it is already optimized to a screen as big as ours with same resolution while spectrum has all its .apks optimized to 3 different resolutions so they are very very big. Gonna stick with Prada for now, cause what I really wanted was the new LGHome2 to work and I got it to. :D . No lags on scrolling anymore.:D . A big problem is that those devices are running Android 2.3.7.
[LG Optimus 3D] Evil Slayer:
oh right i forgot prada res the same as ours :D

well...if that's the case...then there's absolutely no need for the spuctrum rom

and about the 2.3.7....isn't pulling the required files of launcher to our phone not related to the the version(.5 vs .7)....and if its related...were exactly the problem you are facing?

i can only image prada's launcher on your v2.5 rom+the 20e software instead of the 21a...which reported have no lag in 1080p(according to abo mara7)and RTL

it would be an amazing rom :D
