[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] anactoraaron:
Just an update... I have never had any more reboots since the one yesterday. I also am not having any flickering issues as I had before. I decided to allow voltage su rights again and no issues at all. I don't know exactly what the issues were, but they seem to be gone entirely.

Just one question. Every time I open voltage control the min & max frequencies are both at 1512 even though I set the min at 192. Is that just a bug with voltage?

This is a very good rom and it's fast and stable. I have had my phone on with wifi & wifi calling enabled all day with minor usage (a few phone calls, txts, checking email, xda, etc) and still have 81% battery life. At this rate the battery life may be a week for me and my usage. That's incredible! Great work Erik!
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] 2vivid:
Mine doesn't do that
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] anactoraaron:
What's so odd is that the current value shows 192 even though the min slider is at 1512. I have set it again at 192 and upon opening it again it still shows 1512. No big deal as it obviously is not at 1512 min.

I decided to just save the settings as boot setting and it's fine. I'm going to see if it only does this when not saving as boot setting.

Edit: Yeah voltage isn't perfect when not saving settings as boot. I rebooted after clearing boot settings and min slider was at 192 but current value never went below 384. Like I said no big deal. It's not like it doesn't work. The min slider isn't accurate when not saving settings.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] 2vivid:
I was about to suggest this LOL. Its what I had to do
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Beastmode:
Yea voltage control is being a bit douchy lol I'll see if I can just integrated into tfq tweaks without voltage control like how lockscreens and everything else works on tfq

----------------------------------------------

If helped don't be afraid to hit the thanks button ;) it doesn't bite lol
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] anactoraaron:
I'm not nit picking bro build 8 is awesome! I can live with one inaccurate slider :p
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] bigbade:
sorry didnt see an answer last time but DSPmanager keeps crashing and now i get a force close notice even though i havent opened since yesterday and everytime i try to go to gallery it says not enough memory try deleting somethings? when i do my backup it says no ext sd but i have an 8gb in and its how i installed roms so not sure?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] flyers00:
I'm getting the same error but calls dial out and phone recieves them
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Beastmode:
this error is happening in wifi calling only correct?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] flyers00:
correct only in Wi-Fi. I can pull a log later. I think one was posted earlier. Fyi you hit a homerun with the battery tweaks :). I didn't say anything because of all the stuff I was doing, thought it was me obly
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] xArcane1x:
Now running and this from is pretty damn amazing

Only problem I have is when I charge to 100% as soon as I unplug the battery drops to 97% right away

Sent using my awesomeness
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Beastmode:
Try clearing battery stats with a calibrator even though those apps don't increase batt life they will fix that 100-97% issue

You are such a nice dev <3

[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Angelus47:
Thank you for building this (blind no less). My wife loves it, no issues other than wifi calling which she rarely uses. And whatever you did to tweak the battery, rocks as you can see
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Beastmode:
Very awesome I love battery life so I was mad my build 2 was crappy lol

Also, I'm trying to bid on a blaze 4g to dev more but ebay is going for over 250 and I only got half lol I'm looking even for broken screen ones are expensive lol.

[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Biohazard0289:
We might have to get a small bounty going, we don't have tons of users but we really REALLY like you. :p

Or you could take my route, call tmobile and have them give you an early upgrade and then apply a handset credit. Luckily the blaze falls under the mark they have to credit. Just make sure you are talking to retentions.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Beastmode:
Lol thanks :P, I'm trying on my end but the phone is relatively new so people don't like getting low balled lol

Edit: yea i don't wanna re up with tmobile for the blaze (no offense) I'm waiting for the Official Galaxy Note from tmobile and right now i have the s2 :D if i do get the phone i'll be porting s2 roms for sure lol
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Biohazard0289:
I got lucky,I was able to confuse the rep and they forgot to send me to the automated system to accept a contract. Called back an had it reversed because it was technically invalid. I used to work for AT&T, getting what you want it easy.

@Bio

Nice lol get me a blaze haha

@everyone I've gotten at least 20 mess on "how to backup efs to comp" so just wanna say its mt recommendation bbecause efs is super important.

To do this grab a rootexplorer

copy the efs folder on the / folder and paste it in.ur sdcard then transfer iit to ur desktop. See easy! Lol remember to copy n not move the efs :P

So guys I don't mind getting PM's as I know it comes with releasing roms...

BUT if you have questions post em here so everyone can

see and I always check this and will answer...it's a community...let's help each other out :P
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Biohazard0289:
Well that didn't go as planned. While doing a warranty claim for my blaze (camera led isn't working), they sent me an amaze. Mixed feelings about this one.

I guess you're going to need another tester. I might be able to help though it may take me some time to test things
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Beastmode:
Lol nah it's me I'm a perfectionist :)

Plus I've been wanting to assemble my tfq tweaks like rom control on aokp and eventually make a rom from aosp to be as good as aokp/cm

It's in the works but it's still small compare to them ;)

[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] chrisxbell714:
Has anyone realized horrible battery life with build 8?

I left my phone unplugged overnight and yea it sucks lol
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] flyers00:
I'm not sure what would causing the battery drain. I'm running build 8 and left my phone on overnight, battery was at 90%. I also had wifi and all account syncs on. Have you set the min /Max values in voltage control from the tfq tweaks? If not set 192 min and leave Max where its at. Save the settings for applying at boot. Hope this helps
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Chitown021:
I'm going to give this a try. My battery life hasn't been horrible but it seems like it's been slightly worse than stock. I hadn't fiddled with any of the voltage control setting yet.

Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S Blaze.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] chrisxbell714:
Yea i did set them to 384-1512 like how it is stock, and on intellidemand with cfq. I thouht setting the min to low would cause it to use more power on wake?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] anactoraaron:
Are you on default governor/cpu speed? Intellidemand is your friend :) I have mine set probably like most everyone does min:192 Max:1512 intellidemand gov. I have wifi on with wifi calling enabled and background data/sync on and all day yesterday (13 hours) I ended the day with 79% (moderate usage). About 20% per day is something I am more than happy about.

Initially the settings of gov/cpu speed did drain faster than normal for me but I quickly got voltage control to fix that:D
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] flyers00:
Try setting voltage control to 192 min/1512 Max. Also use sio (scheduler) with intellidemand (governor) . This seems to be working well

---------- Post added at 11:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:18 AM ----------

I just posted the settings I'm using for build 8. I'm at 85% battery with wifi, sync on and running tunein radio all morning. Hope it helps
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] chrisxbell714:
Yea ill give that a try its just odd because i used the same settings for build 7, and also on the battery stats screen you can see my phone was "awake" most of the time but the screen wasnt on? I dont have many apps running.

EDIT

Changing the min max and scheduler didnt help so i reflashed build 8 and everything is good now.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] itsLYNDZ:
Have you ever had problems with your phone not waking up? Ive tried this in the past and missed my alarm numerous times... Where can I get Intellidemand? How can you fix the battery drain with voltage control?

Also, does this build have the long press back button to kill apps? Still trying to make Maps, Facebook and Words with Friends stop running in the background and from restarting. And I just dont understand tasker to do it thru that.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] anactoraaron:
Make sure you aren't restoring apps + data when restoring apps. I don't have any problems with the phone not waking up. Intellidemand is built in to the rom in Voltage Control. You have to start the Voltage Control app first before using it in TFQ tweaks. Make sure you also set those settings as boot settings in voltage.

Having apps running in the background doesn't effect battery life at all (It's not running! It is cached in RAM. RAM will have the same power draw if 50 apps are cached or if it's 5 apps). Display is always #1, usually followed by cell standby, android os, and phone idle. Having apps running in the background isn't the end of the world. Usually killing needed systems apps drains battery as the os needs them and restarts them which uses cpu cycles. There's no real reason to fuss over any running app unless you installed something you didn't want :p Task managers often kill apps which are needed and kill battery life - I don't use them. I used to... but I have realized that they aren't needed... and being OCD about it will decrease battery life (ironic isn't it?)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] itsLYNDZ:
I know Maps, facebook and Words with Friends really suck battery life when running in the background, so im not sure what to do about them. I know betterbatterystats shows them as a huge battery drain..Whats TFQ tweaks? Not sure how to do any of that, but i do want the great battery life you have
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] anactoraaron:
TFQ tweaks are in DarkKnight rom (thread where you posted lol). Go to settings and scroll down to tfq tweaks.

FB and Words with friends can be put in check by removing them lol :p . Seriously I have FB installed and background data enabled and it doesn't use that much battery. I don't do the words with friends or wordfeud anymore. It got old.

I don't have any issues with maps using battery so I don't know how to help you there. Turning off gps, bt, and wifi, etc will also help battery life.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] itsLYNDZ:
Im on build7 but dont see TFG tweaks under settings
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Animosity:
Its on build 8 lol
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] itsLYNDZ:
Oh alright, havent flashed it yet, as other people are reporting issues. Ill probably flash it this weekend. Could you PM me with how to set everything up for the tweaks? I did download Voltage Control.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] anactoraaron:
I had a few issues the first day, but for whatever reason everything has worked itself out and has been rock solid the past 2 days. Give build 8 a try!
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Animosity:
Just got about 20 something hours after reflashing with a format system. Now the rom is perfect
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] itsLYNDZ:
How did you format system? Just in mounts and storage? and then wipe cache and such? I think this is what screwed my phone up the first time I flashed build7. something was out of order or I didnt understand how to format system/what it does... I just want awesome battery life :/
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] chrisxbell714:
When installing most roms heres what you should normally do

1.Go into recovery (obviously)

2.Wipe Data/Factory Reset

3.Wipe cache partiton

4. Wipe dalvikcache under advanced settings

5.install the rom from sd card

6. When android first loads up which will be the lockscreen unlock it then dont touch anything at all let the phone sit for 5 minutes.

Make sure you open SuperSu to enable root, i had to atleast.

Then restore your backups and such if you had any.

Hope this helps.

If your upgrading to a new build just wipe cache partiton then wipe dalvik cache then install from sdcard. Let phone sit for 5 mins.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Beastmode:
Dark knight wipes the system partition for u and also defends you against the joker :P

Why is the font so big sometimes and how do I change it? I have to turn the phone sideways to read it/make it return to normal size.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] anactoraaron:
This is posted a few pages back. All you have to do is go into tfq tweaks in settings and change the font size to small.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] woodzx67:
Go into the tfq tweaks and change the font to small then back to normal size. Fixed the big font for me
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] itsLYNDZ:
Im also finding that scheduler in voltage control wont stay at sio. keeps going back to the regular one. For the stock Samsung lockscreen I cant have a photo for the lockscreen now?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] waitforit...:
So for those with poor battery life, I have been trying to track down why this happens... it appears that data over 4g has issues. I am not sure why, but this clearly shows that something is dramatically different when using the radio. It could be an app I am using but I though I would share what I know so far.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] itsLYNDZ:
Nor getting such great battery life... sio in scheduler won't stick either
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Animosity:
Format system before wiping. That worked for me
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] itsLYNDZ:
Erik said it didnt need to be formatted when coming from build7. I dont really understand what formatting system does. Does it wipe everything?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] razielpr:
Erik i have a problem in build8 when i try using foxfi for tethering a massage popsup saying your tether mobile hotspot have been activated click link to t-mobile to choose a tether plan. But before i flashed build8 i was using foxfi without problems. Oh and i freezed tethermanager. What's wrong eny help??
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Wolliebugger:
So far so good. Only cleared Dav cache. Looked inside the mounts, they was all set to mount, so I left them alone to see what would happen. Loaded the DK8. It rebooted on its own. Let it sit till lock screen came. Then explored. I only let it sit while animation played for about 5 min. Truthfully that is what I interpreted the "let sit for 5 min" to mean. Took a few min to find the font size setting...

{{ IF could be done, my eyes would like a font size about half way between that LRG normal and the small. }}

... I do not have decent WiFi access, so have to run data 24/7, battery life is averages 17 hours.

Oh yes, guess it due to my lack of wiping, but all my apps where still active upon first entry into DK8. Come to think of it. I did not have need to do that "fix permissions" either. I did have to with the DK7f.

Have used both USB and WiFi tethering to rearrange my music files. Phone calls and text messages work fine. Getting (too much) email. INet good to go, use Dolphin Browser. And use GO Keyboard.

I have NOT loaded any external tweaks so far. Not seeing any need to do so. Android Assist says between 43 sec to 1 min 20 sec to load on reboots.

{{ I have opportunity to trade my 8G SD card for a 32G. Dude claims his phone (NOT SGH-T769) don't see but 8G of the 32... Can our phones use all 32G, or will I have same problem? }}

All I can say to anyone that has NOT tried this Great ROM...

...JUST GET OFF YOUR DUFF, DOWNLOAD IT AND INSTALL IT, YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!!!

Erikmm

, Thank you!!! :good: :good:

One very happy Wolliebugger. :laugh:
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] shaikmonster:
Ok... should I use this or the CM7 rom ?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] flyers00:
I would say use build 8 because the cam on the cm7 rom doesn't work. Everything else on cm7 works and build 8 is stable. Good luck :D
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
No problem using 32 GB here.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dispozable:
Build 8 is running great for me so far! I just installed before I went to work so I'll try and test it some more today, but so far it definitely feels smoother, especially the launcher.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] itsLYNDZ:
3 hours and battery was down to 65% Here is my BBS. Not really happy. And sio under schedules in voltage control wont stick even if I do boot set. Not sure what the problem is there.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] 2vivid:
Did you flash over build 7 ?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] chrisxbell714:
Thats very weird...i juat left my phone on over night after reflashing and wowww is all i have to say i left my phone fully charged but unplugged last night and i watched a couple youtube vids lol

%100

Use voltage control from your apps not from tfq tweaks and itll stick until reboot
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] razielpr:
Eny help here can't use foxfi to tether because i get a popup message saying that my mobile hotspot have been activated and T-Mobile required additional payment to use this future. But i was using it before i flashed build 8.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] chrisxbell714:
Use barnacle wifi tether works for me and doesnt activate tmobiles hotspot
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] itsLYNDZ:
Yes I did. Sio did stick this time. But why am i getting such awful battery life? i just checked the web a few times while using it last night and then I checked it and it was at about 65%
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] chrisxbell714:
Did you leave the web browser open the whole time or did you actually exit the browser because if its left open in the background it will kill your battery life
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] itsLYNDZ:
No I actually exited when I was done and it wasnt running in the background
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] chrisxbell714:
I dont know maybe its a defective battery then?

Step by step what do you do when installing the rom, apps you install ect maybe something your doing is messing witht the battery i can help the best i can.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] 2vivid:
Hey Erik thought I'd share this since the status bar actually turned out decent LOL.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Animosity:
So 16gb and 32gb SD cards work on our blaze right? I'm planning on upgrading my memory from my 4gb
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] chrisxbell714:
Im running a 16gb sandisk and it works perfectly.

Go to dealextreme google it there cheap cheap there.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] 2vivid:
Try doing a fresh install my sisters blaze had pretty bad battery life when I flashed over another build. Wipe data (factory reset) wipe cache wipe dalvik cache reflash fix permissions reboot. Battery life improved for her after this.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Beastmode:
Can you test a theory out for me lyndz? Idk how much you use data but try turning off data(4g/3g) and see if the drain is still really bad? I'm thinking maybe you're in a bad 4g reception area and your internet switches between 3g and 4g a lot and that might be causing drain...at first I thought it was battery but I believe you said you got a new one.

Try that and let me know. :)

So far batt life has been great with build 8. No issues or complaints
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] itsLYNDZ:
I thought that too, but I just bought a brand new battery. I just did the wipe cache and flash rom, or whatever the instructions erik gave. Didnt do anything in mounts or format system because I dont understand how those work and messing with them has given me issues the first time I tried to flash
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] 2vivid:
Did you do the wipe data factory reset? The third one down?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] chrisxbell714:
You dont need to change anything in mounts anymore just wipe data wipe cache and wipe dalkiv and install
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] razielpr:
Don't work gives error cannot connect to mobile hotspot Don't know what's the problem.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] chrisxbell714:
Maybe you root uninstalled somehing you shouldnt have? Try reflashing dark kniht but without wipeing data just wipe cache partiton and dalvik cache under advanced.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] itsLYNDZ:
yeah I did that too
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] 2vivid:
Hmm idk then. Try what Erik said lol
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] razielpr:
I restored my backup and foxfi worked perfect then reflashed dk8 and the same error :you're mobile hotspot has been activated click link to chose a T-Mobile theter plan. Don't know why it happens and my backup is a T-Mobile stock rom and foxfi works and with dk8 it dosnt.

After a full day of nerding out on my phone I have yet to see any real issues. BT, WiFi, WiFi tethering, calls, texts, are working great so far. Battery life looks great as well. I like the transparency of the lockscreens, though I did notice one bug with them... When you set a gesture to load the flashlight, it doesn't execute on the lockscreen. This was easily bypassed by having the gesture start an app, then turn the settings on in the app so the flashlight turns on when the app does. No biggie. Great work on the lockscreens btw, much appreciated!

My battery life was phenomenal yesterday, but terrible today. Then I realized my voltage control settings were at 1512 min and 1512 Max. The settings I choose never seem to stick. Anyone know how to fix this?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] forgetaboutit:
It seems my battery is draining really fast too
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Beastmode:
Seems voltage control isn't sticking thru settings which is why I left it as an app as well open the app and make ur changes there.

As for batt life it's really how you use the phone the screen on times are important. So are the bbs like I mentioned earlier it might be that ur in a poor signal area and your getting drain from that. I told lindz. To try to disable data for a few hrs and see if her drain is gone but never got a response on here
