Been Getting Bad Battery Life and Lag

I have been getting bad battery life and lag with the latest rom that was released on 3/25

I may have to do a complete wipe as I just wiped davlik

My text messages are being delayed and sometimes don't go out

and I can unplug the phone from a full charge and within 2mins my battery is drain from 100% charge to 96%.

I look at my battery stats and I don't see a particular app sucking the battery.

There's no such thing (lag and bad battery life) with Diamond kernel. No really, there isn't. Then again, all devices vary.

I use root tools for my custom name and it sticks full time for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] intrloper:
I looked up root tools and see it is an app, not sure if that is the solution for me. Wanted to be able to make the change myself.

I edited the eri.xml file under windows seven.

Then used Root Explorer to copy the file from SD partition to the data folder. (Or using CWM to flash the change)

Verified the file change by opening it under text editor in Root Explorer and the name change shows there.

Again the change does show for a few seconds but then reverts back to default. I am not sure what else could be done but open to any help.

Please.

Would be very thankful for any help anyone can give still.

Anybody else get random force closing of Google play service? It happens (obviously) mostly when updating apps or when on the play store. Also I just updated antutu benchmark and ran a benchmark to see where I was at and got what I believe to be a kernel panic. My phone stuck on displaying the ak diamond edition screen and I had to do a battery pull. Strange. =)

Same issue here. I also edited the eri located in framework-res.apk and still Verizon Wireless trumps my custom. Also, when I was on a road trip, I had my custom the whole time, so Verizon kicks in when I'm in my home area. I've also tried root tools and nothing sticks.

<-----like this only with nav on right and notifications on left? I'm left handed (in most life tasks) but hold and generally use only my right hand with my phone. it's a bit tricky reaching across the screen pressing soft keys, especially the back button which in tablet mode is quite small.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] svtfmook:
is NFC working on this? with beam?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simonbarsinistr:
Latest gapps from Google? If so, then I don't think so. The gapps for this rom have been modified for use with the hybrid engine. Using non PA gapps will cause certain features not to work, or worse, force close.

As for beam, I have no info, I never have used NFC for anything.

Any possibility of an option to rotate the PIE text around the circle? I've been trying out PIE with Gravity=Right to avoid the keyboard interference (and a couple other small annoyances) I was experiencing with Gravity=Bottom. I think if I could rotate the orbiting PIE text (time, status, etc) to the right it would make it much more readable when using Gravity=Right.

What would be the logic behind this occurrence : i open play music, play a track, go into the stock eq, have to turn it off then back on to implement the adjustment, then when i back out of the app the eq is disabled. Bug? Allowance for third party eq? Its frustrating......

I was just going to say that I tested it with another Kernel. Trinity was the issue, not the recovery. I can adjust setting just fine with Franco. Bummer though, trinity is my favorite to run...

I got it working. It was superuser. The Rom didn't ask for superuser permission when I tried to switch to tablet mode. When I re flashed the Rom in boot manager, it ask me for superuser permission when I clicked the tablet mode. Now it working. Make sure it ask for superuser permission.

I ran into one "issue" if you can call it that. I'm using the screen lock 'pattern' to unlock the phone, and when the phone is in portrait mode, everything looks fine. When it's not, the "Emergency call" text + icon is cut off, and you can barely see the top of the phone icon at the very bottom of the screen.

Been playing around with this since last night, but still cannot figure out how to get the tablet-style nav/status bar on the bottom while still being in hybrid mode (so everything else about the home screens is phone style). Aside from that I think I have the hang of this.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simonbarsinistr:
Just to stop the avalanche that's happening, again, jaybob is a busy guy who is nice enough to bring AOSPA over to toro. DON'T START COMPLAINING ABOUT LACK OF CHANGELOGS OR ACTIVITY!

Fairct has good info on changes in his thread that also apply to these builds when they are similar dates, he keeps a running commentary on changes on github. So you can look there, or look at the commits yourself. But if you won't flash without a changelog, then don't flash. Please don't complain to our devs about what you think they need to be doing. They don't need to do any of this!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] intrloper:
To clarify I am/was not attacking anyone. However as someone that doesn't use social media nor wants to search outside links for change info I don't see it a huge request to keep the change log up to date. Considering post two on page one has:

displayed at the top; adding in any changes once a month seems like very little work.

Slightly more important with multiple custom roms around if a user tends to jump around based on certain key features then it helps to know if a feature you have been longing for is now live in the rom you wish to use. On the other hand if a feature is removed it is nice to know why.

As far as them not needing to do "any of this", I am grateful there are devs out there that work to bring nice new features to the platform and hope the devs can understand why a easily viewed change log is so helpful for users to track what is happening with the roms we enjoy so much. If however this is truly an issue where users need to keep quiet and be thankful then you are also correct in saying we or I can move to a rom that has a slightly more understanding dev team that wants to convey info easily.

Try playing with your governor and scheduler. That fixed up my sods for the most part.

Lurking on my AOSPA/AK device.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] claytonjn:
PGM is an app that allows you to turn on/off your screen by "swiping" across the screen instead of using the power button. Some people had issues with it causing SODs during phone calls, which is why I asked.

Choosing a governor that doesn't hotplug a core while the the device isn't sleeping is also a good idea because the GNex processor tends to have problems with hotplugging. Also, raising the minimum clock speed may help if you've previously lowered it.

FWIW, I use Tiny Kernel. I've been using it for months with absolutely no issues. For me it's yielded the best battery/performance balance.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ABN85:
Thanks for the input. I've never used hotplug. I usually stick with interactive, conservative or ondemand. Leave my minimum at 350mhz though. I'll give Tiny Kernel a try if I can find it. PA is my favorite ROM, just can't deal with the black screen. Seems to only happen during a phone call.
