Just learnt that 2-way call recording is working perfect with this kernel..

Am using Auto Call recorder currently and its recording great....

Thanks once again for the great kernel man!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Original Android Development] ayush29k:
Just a problem with you man....works fine for me.

This is a great kernel, the best battery life on CM i have seen since the first CM released by Grif_07. Awesome work Dragonn!!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Original Android Development] tranquill1800:

What should I flash first - firekernel or Adrenaline Engine or maybe order doesn't matter. I am using CM7.2 official on my SGA and going to flash both firekernel and AE, just wondering which should go first :confused:

Thanks for your great work, Dragon
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Original Android Development] edzamber:
First firekernel.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Original Android Development] DarkNate34:
A possible fix for the battery issue

Make sure the battery is a 100% charged while it is switched off.

1. Wipe the Cache Partition and then the Dalvik Cache

2. Flash The Kernel

3. Wipe battery stats

4. Try using different CPU Governors like lagfree
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Original Android Development] tranquill1800:
And how do u feel this will help?

The battery life is just great...its just that the battery % update is not accurate. Even for the stock, it gives a staggered accurate update...
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Original Android Development] DarkNate34:
Some people have a problem with the battery life. The battery reading is working perfectly for me battery lasted for exactly 23 hours and 3 minutes on my phone with these steps.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Original Android Development] tranquill1800:
wiping battery stats does not improve battery life..and in my opinion, smartass2 is the best..what do u say?

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Original Android Development] chanito88:
That's right.

Wipping battery stats does not improve battery life at all. It just gives u more accurate reading of the battery stats. U need to wipe them whenever u flash a new rom.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Original Android Development] DarkNate34:
The wiping is for accurate battery reading not life.

just one (big) bug: when I try to connect to wi fi it reboots, but after that it.s ok. I read the last 10 pages of the thread but I couldn't find a solution. Is it just me or it is a known bug?

great work man! thanks!

Any idea what might be causing this steep drop in battery level?

Quick Question.

Amongst all those versions in the OP.

Which one is best for Battery Life for OC-UN
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Original Android Development] noobdroid_90:
I get similar battery life in most of the versions

but i think i got maximum from 4.06
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Original Android Development] andrevs_ro:
Since no one answered to my question, i.ve tried the previous version and it has no problem with wifi.

I do not find any change in battery life between the latest version and the previous version

EDIT: i use bfq scheduler, i prefer it to sio, which is default

Hard to say if it's better or worse than previous versions as this is my first firekernel. Non-OC is working great on my CM7 official, I am very glad that finally I decided to flash it. Now waiting for new battery drivers :)

Thank you Dragonn for your work, it is great that sth is going on in the Ace community.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Original Android Development] tranquill1800:
the last 15% battery lasted a lot for me unlike the previous version...strange that dragon said that he has not touched upon the battery!

Need help here...............

When u say 1d12hr, be my guide...

For me, the battery never lasts for more than 10-14 hours, moderate use (no gaming), with 2G always activated in the day time...

I tried to do a analysis today and felt that a application called IM+ pro is not letting the phone sleep (if I do understand it correctly).

I am attaching the relevant screen shots...please do guide whether the fault is with the application or am I missing anything?

Thanks...
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Original Android Development] edzamber:
Yep. So i am using firekernel from 23/06 non oc official with Apocalypse final

I use "Es task manager" to kill apps to free ram and bypass a lot of system apps and user apps in autostart. For more, i use "autorun manager pro" to disable some autostarts like "map" or "google play". I turn off wifi, 3g and 2g when i don't use it. I use first wifi about 4h by day and 3g only when i have no wifi around, since 10 or 15 mn by day. Maybe 20 mn calling, and 10 sms. I don't play games and use "Tapatalk" and mail maybe 30 mn by day.

Last thing : i clean cache with "App cache cleaner" and i have 150mo free ram when i killing apps with "es task manager" widget.

Edit :

no synchro in real time with google accompt and no auto update with google play for apps !!!

Edit 2 :

My gouvernor is smartass v2, cpu max : 768 cpu min : 245 and in cyanogen performance setup, cache diftering always disable.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Original Android Development] edzamber:
Yes. Go sms pro and IM+ are staying in background. In Go sms, untip "keep go sms in cache" . For IM+ i don't know because i don't use it but try to desable autostart for these twice with Es task manager and Autorun manager pro and i think it will give you better battery life. Its use a lot of ram, then a lot of battery. Less apps in background=better battery life !
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Original Android Development] dragonnn:
You are complete wrong - only apps witch block deep sleep are using you battery live. Application such GO SMS Pro don't use battery when you don't use it - they are only in background to lunch faster when you need it, I never used a task killer on Android.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Original Android Development] tranquill1800:
Thanks for your feed back.

In my opinion, ES task manager autorun will consume lot of battery because it will wake up your device each time for auto killing. In case, ES task manager is not auto scheduled and is manually done as a home screen widget, the problem is that ES task manager keeps on refreshing the RAM status for the widget. I use Memory Booster Lite where I manually free the RAM once or twice a day only.

I also Autostarts to determine the autorun of applications.

Dispite all this, my battery didnt use to last long. Let me check with switching to push mode in IM+ Pro and see if I can improve upon.

Thanks.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Original Android Development] edzamber:
Thanks for your reply.

So why if i don't use es task manager and Autorun manager pro, my battery life is about 20 hours and when i use it, its about 1,5 days with same use with phone (wifi for 4h, calling for 20mn, 10 sms, no games and only 10mn with data) ?

For the guys who normally have touch problems in OC kernels,I wanna say that the latest release has the touch problem.

Users who never face this problem in OC kernels need not worry as it is a hardware problem.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Original Android Development] dragonnn:
Because you never use you phone exactly like anther day, trust me, I never used task killer (but maybe you have an app that really drains battery, but then you should find it and remove or replace it) and sometimes I get 2 days battery live, and sometimes I drain my battery in 10 hours.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Original Android Development] edzamber:
Ok i will try to find what's apps wrongs, delete tasks managers and give you a feedback

Battery life on CM7.2 official with the latest firekernel non-OC is just amazing. After 30 hours of use (very moderate, no 3G, little data, almost 70% of time in deep sleep) I still have 67% of battery. SmartassV2, underclocked 122-540, no Set CPU, no Adrenaline Engine, no other scripts = no lagging and great battery life (actually, no gaming too) :) I recommend these settings for no-gamers.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Original Android Development] tranquill1800:
1. Great...I always felt that underclocking never helps. A task which can be undertaken during a short time would take more time with underclocking if I understand it right. Thus, didnt use to underclock. However, I now understand that though the task gets over fast, restoring to a lower value takes some time and thus, it on an overall basis takes more battery. Do suggest if my understand is not correct.

2. Stop using my signature (Sent from my fax machine) :laugh: Just kidding :cowboy:
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Original Android Development] tonyboy3:
Deep sleep isnt working for me on LeWa :(
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Original Android Development] dragonnn:
Run you app and check if you phone goes in deep sleep (CPU Spy).

Should be working, check if you use any app that locks deep sleep.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Original Android Development] Bonu:
1. Try for yourself. For me it works, not sure whether it's because of the reasons you just mentioned or maybe it's just that Samsung factory-overclocked the CPU in the Ace and it just likes to work on slower RPM. For me max. 540 means great battery life and no lagging still, so I am using it. For that I need CM and firekernel as I suppose that 612 on stock rom (no 540 there) would mean terrible lagging already :) At 480 max it starts lagging in my setup too but it's still not that bad for a non-gamer.

2. Sorry, I didn't want to annoy anyone by using the original "sent from my iPhone" signature, so I changed it into the first one that I saw lately and came to my mind. I can stop using it if it's copyrighted © , no problem but it's really good :cowboy:
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Original Android Development] tranquill1800:
Dude...with all the copyright war going on between Apple and Google and especially Apple having got the multitouch patent (Patent Number 7,966,578) under the crapped American patent system and now Motolola (Google obviously) suing Apple for location reminders, email notifications, video playback, etc, I think I can probably get this patented too :)

If Adam and eve were alive today. They would have sued Apple to use the name apple.

Soon Ford will be suing all the car companies for using 4 wheels on there cars

Unbelivable world buddy...

But yes, ofcourse, u can use "sent from my Fax machine" in your signature...

OC official

Though Dragon said that he has'nt touch upon the battery, my battery lasts for more than 35 hours now, which barely used to last 12 hours earlier!!!

The screen shots shows 48% of remaining battery after approx 17 hours with 1.5+ hours of voice calls, not to mention that I was always connected on 2G data for the entire 17 hours.

Moreover, the battery after 12% upto reaching 1% lasts awesome...almost 8-9 hours!

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Original Android Development] Jar3112:
Hi Dragonn, your kernel is very good, I am using it since the first version! Coming to questions, here's mine:

I have a problem with Wi-Fi, could it be kernel related? On MY router (I tried on my gf 's and everything 's fine) whenever I connect the signal on status bar appears and lights up correctly, but no real connection is active, i tried with every app, but nothing can connect in this situation.

In order to have a working connection i have to reboot the device with Wi-Fi on... bad thing is that if I want to use data connection after this I have to reboot it again, because otherwise there's no way to turn it on.

I've always had some problem with my phone on my router, but since I didn't use much Wi-Fi at home it wasn't so bad. Anyway, I think it never was like that (if I remember well).

Some time ago just restarting the router would have done the job.

Thank you for your help!

In the 19.08 update, for me, the battery drain problem was completly resolved! In fact, my battery lasted very good from 12% drop to 1%, which gave a much needed standby.

WIth the 19.08 update, trust me, the batter lasted the best, compared to all other versions (35+ hours with medium-high usage...man that was awesome).

Since you have changed the battery driver now, do you see any changes to the battery standby time?

Hmm what about BLN control? It seemed to work on non-official CM, but now that I move to the official CM, BLN control just says that my phone doesn't support it. I thought that feature was depending on the kernel? It's a great kernel anyway and I'm still gonna use it, great job :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Original Android Development] Bonu:
BLN works with Firekernel and the official CM7.2 on Ace with no problem! You must do two things to make it work. First flash GPS and Sensors patch from here:

then install BLN control app from here:
