Battery drains the same compared to v1

100% lasts 20 hours standby

- no OC

- ondemand until 30% smartass until 15% (20hours total = CM9 3.0.0 life)

- uncheck kernal sampling

- uncheck surface dithering

- disabled zRam

- uncheck purging of asset

smartassv2 is not an ideal governor for battery saving
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] amnher:
Try InteractiveX
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] zhuhang:
i think its not governor's case, cause changing governor not improving battery life.

And i had no games and apps, ONLY TBackup and Rootexplorer thats all.

Anyway, i tried interactiveX before in v1, same result. :(
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] amnher:
I haven't tried v1 but as per my test of 3.0.1 battery life seems the same as GB rom. 1 day usage for normal and heavy. Did you do the Wipe battery routine

- After flashing ROM charge it when it reaches low battery level like 15%

- Wait for it to reach 100% then reboot to CWM(Without removing charger)

- Wipe battery stats and restart

- It will reach about 93% and wait for to reach 100% then restart again but do not go to CWM.

- It will reach around 97-98% then wait for it to reach 100% and remove the charger then restart the phone again.

- use it normally without performing any charging(I.e. connecting via USB)

- Then charge it normally and your done.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] zhuhang:
everytime charge do the routine?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] thanhhungtn1:
I still got battery drain problem, but somehow the battery's better than 3.0.0

And anyone try to install facebook app? This app gonna make your rom becomes lag.

Maybe a bug or something?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] amnher:
no just for first time calibrating of new rom or if you experience drain on roms that doesn't drain. You can also use Die-Hard Battery Calibrator

Hi guys, just installed this for the second day, got into the following problems, don;t know whether it bugs or just me:-

1) can't use the headphone as antenna for the FM radio; it takes forever to load!

2) SMS and handcent always FC

3) Link2SD insisted that the second partition which was formatted in Ex2, can only linked when Ex4 is selected.

4) internal memory is always full, have to "link" dalvic-cache in link2SD to increase the internal ram on each rebooting! But I already selected link the dalvic cache and lib.files on most of my app.

Any helps and inputs are welcomed.

Try apex launcher, better than nova and trebuchet. As browser try Opera. To get more free ram install Titanium backup and remove unneeded apps.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Vicky26:
As the guy above said, use Apex Launcher. Don't have many widgets on screen, use Opera Mini as a browser, use Ram Manager and/or Advanced Task Killer, don't install Facebook app (it slows the whole system down), remove stuff you don't need.

I removed DSP Manager, the sound is good as it is, I didn't need it, and it's ok.

WHY ?!

@nAa: ur rom is stable and really is a piece of work. just one innocent question i hope u answer: why is the ported version of AOKP seems far faster and smoother than ur CM port, especially in browsing, in spite of being non-stable at all and depending on ur own ics kernel ?! is it something about GPU acceleration ?! RAM optimization ?! please, enlighten me !
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Vicky26:
I can only say... use different browser :o I know, it may sound naive, but Opera Mini browses much faster than rom's browser.

But for me this rom is the smoothest ever, especially in menus scrolling and such.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] sidewalk_:

Limit the time that you are snapping the panorama picture.

The device does not have much RAM to spare for a big panorama frame. Usually until half of the panorama progress bar can be handled though.

Odexing an ICS rom requires more space in /system than the device has (unless you start stripping down apps). This is why MiniCM9 isn't odexed.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] lozzyl:
This is the most stable ICS rom till now for me!! JOB WELL DONE nAa !!!

Just a couple of things I had to do to get it to run smoothly

1.Replace Trebuchet laucher with APEX launcher.(trebuchet is laggy for me)

2.Got it supercharged using V6-Supercharger(which actually did most of the trick)

With 256mb for swap and OC-ed to 825 Mhz I can even play 3d games like

(AS-5 ,gangster west coast,temple run) smoothly.

But as ICS is RAM hungry so loading the apps do take a bit time.. and also rebooting the phone...

but for now I am more than satisfied!! :D

After 2days of testing, i wish to report some bugs here.

1. Launcher is always restart/refresh. But i guess it is nothing about the rom, probably our phone is too low memory to use ICS. Any idea to fix this problem, without change the launcher? Or does supercharger help?

2. Default browser is laggy, at least compare with GB. Still maybe is the phone low spec problem. But there is a problem i guess is nothing related to phone, the keyboard wouldn't pop out for certain page. Maybe is the browser problem.

3. I shared my wifi to friend. After we have finished, i turned off the tethering, but it was still consuming my battery like the tether is running. The phone was hot and I have to restart my phone.

4. Another battery drain. I charged my phone until 100% before i sleep(12:30am). When i woke up(7:30am), the phone was left with 2%. The phone was idle, i have no idea why did it consume all my battery. I checked battery stats, it was the Facebook app, consumed 80%, but there were no data/wifi on. I have no idea why Facebook consumed my battery and i never faced this problem before.

5. Last one, when the battery is under 15%, there is a warning pop out. But the problem is, when i restart the phone, the network lock pop out together with the low battery warning. It made the phone totally untouchable. The thing i can only do is charge my phone, then the battery warning will gone, i only can dismiss the network lock.

Thank you.

What is KSM - Kernel Samepage Merging?

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kernel SamePage Merging (KSM) (also: Kernel Shared Memory, Memory Merging) lets system share identical memory pages amongst different processes or virtualized guests. This is done by scanning through the memory finding duplicate pages. The duplicate pair is then merged into a single page, and mapped into both original locations. The page is also marked as "copy-on-write", so the kernel will automatically separate them again should one process modify its data.[1]

KSM was originally intended to run more virtual machines on one host by sharing memory between processes as well as virtual machines. Upon implementation, it was also found to be useful for non-virtualized environments where memory is at a premium [2][3]. An experimental implementation of KSM by Red Hat found that 52 virtual instances of Windows XP with 1GB of memory, could run on a host computer that had only 16GB of RAM [4].

KSM first appeared in the version 2.6.32 Linux operating system kernel [2]. To be effective, the operating system kernel must find similar memory pages held by different processes. As well it needs to decide whether the pages are going to update infrequently enough that SamePage Merging would be an efficient use of processor resources [3]. When first proposed, there were concerns that this feature could be exploit as a security vulnerability (this concern has since been addressed). Another concern is that although memory usage is reduced, CPU usage is increased, thus negating potential increases in performance [1].

The solutions is to change the launcher.Go on the market and download apex launcher.Its the same ics launcher but more fast and with more settings

I did not interfere with this kind of problem...for me the browser is extremely fast. try full wipe to your phone or change the browser

Try full wipe

Try full wipe and cache and batterry wipe
