Does anyone here who is experiencing xda app battery drain have a rooted device with an ad blocker? I have never had this issue with the xda app and the only thing that has changed other than the phone is not being rooted /ad free. My guess is ads are somehow causing this problem.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] sfernandez:
Have you tried changing the Settings / Notifications/Receive Notification/How often to check

I put never(or Uncheck Receive Notification) and That helps out allot

************************************************

IF THE LINES ARE NOT ALREADY IN BUILD.PROP, JUST ADD THEM TO THE END OF THE FILE

************************************************

So i found these in the net.

I have applied them in latest Fuzz's build and it is very smooth!!

Here are just a couple of tweaks to smoothen one's UI experience in Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. (Remember these changes won't apply without a reboot and you will need a rooted device).

Improve UI frame rate and touch response:

windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec=240

Disable kernel error logging:

ro.kernel.android.checkjni=0
ro.kernel.checkjni=0

Get rid of CPU rendering:

1. Navigate to /system/lib/egl/

2. Open the file named "egl.cfg"

3. Delete the first line. It should say "0 0 android" or something similar

4. Go back into the egl folder and delete libGLES_android.so

What this does is remove the entire soft-rendering pathway from the OS.

Enable tile rendering:

Tile rendering is a more efficient form of GPU composition, and boosts performance since each frame is split into tiles.

debug.enabletr=true

Improve Scrolling FPS:

ro.max.fling_velocity=6000

Signal Tweaks:

ro.ril.hsxpa=2
ro.ril.gprsclass=10
ro.ril.hep=1
ro.ril.enable.dtm=1
ro.ril.hsdpa.category=10
ro.ril.enable.a53=1
ro.ril.enable.3g.prefix=1
ro.ril.htcmaskw1.bitmask=4294967295
ro.ril.htcmaskw1=14449
ro.ril.hsupa.category=5

Network Speed tweaks:

net.tcp.buffersize.default=4096,87380,256960,4096, 16384,256960
net.tcp.buffersize.wifi=4096,87380,256960,4096,163 84,256960

net.tcp.buffersize.edge=4096,87380,256960,4096,163 84,256960

Disable bootanimation for faster boot:

debug.sf.nobootanimation=1

[Defy General] hsrars-d:
you should use root file browser, e.g Root Explorer, and press mount as r/w on the top right corner.

then long press on build.prop file and select open in text editor

then add the lines to build.prop file, save and reboot

Not working

Tried adding to end of prop file but no effect. Should i leave a space after the last entry i.e.

**********(last entry)

winowdsmgr_****

or

**********(last entry)

windowsmgr_****

obviously what a typed above is a quick example not what I typed into build prop.

Thanks.

Tile rendering makes all my launchers crash even Trebuchet. The only option then left is to restore.
[Defy General] hsrars-d:
I added it with no space, above the line that reads #end of build.prop

like this :

some_line

added_line

And you may not feel any difference, latest build is just fine without these tweaks, just added them before HWA builds came out

Chances we will get Jelly Bean on the Eee Pad Transformer?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mrevankyle:
very high
[Eee Pad Transformer General] what25:
I'm hoping there's a good chance for JB. As a TF101 owner, they basically have a good record updating our OS's, so I'm guessing we might get it in 3-6 months. (yes i said 6).
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mrevankyle:
Well we also have aosp roms like CM and AOPK and the release cycle on that (alpha's anyways) is only about 2-3 months
[Eee Pad Transformer General] coolface:
I read somewhere that ASUS only guaranteed an update for 18 months from first say of TF101.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mrevankyle:
launched end of may / beginning of april last year so we still have some time
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Thing O Doom:
Yeah till at least Christmas I hope :D But if Cm9 (Or cm10???) gets it so will we.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] farsight73:
Base on the TF101 spec.. it more than capable of handling JellyBean. And Asus know this too.. unless they play this marketing over bussiness game on us and indirectly forcing Asus loyalties to buy their new range of upcoming devices with JellyBean ready. Will wait and see what in Asus future pipeline in store for us by 3rd quarter in the calander year.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] CrazyPeter:
TF101 is still a current model, it's still for sale by Asus, and therefore will be part of their 18month support agreement (which only starts when the product is discontinued).

With this, and the fact that Asus have been working with Google on the Nexus7 and will have had access to the Jellybean source for quite a few months, and the fact that ICS still isn't 100% stable on the TF101, i think it's pretty much a given that it will happen.

Not that I care, as mines a BO50 and totally unlocked to flash what I want, so can go CM10 if I want, but it would be nice if Asus supported it.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] deerkiller11:
JB isn't going to be released from Google until thanksgiving (from what I've read) so if we get it at all it wont be until after the first of the year. remember Asus now has the slider, the Prime and now the tf301. i am sure they will have others by then as well. those devices will get updated first just because they are newer and it will be at least 2 month per device for each update to make sure they have a stable release. so don't hold your breath, IMHO.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Deleted member 4151041:
The only reason I hope/think we will get it because asus is a great company. I just wish they made a phone other than padfone (regular smartphone) and I would buy that soooo fast.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dragon_76:
ICS has VERY poor install rate. Even since the source code release most new devices released have still used Gingerbread. Honeycomb and ICS were both rushed. I think most devices will end up skipping ICS and move straight to Jellybean.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jadesse:
6 months? Hell, I hope to have a tablet running Win8 by then.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] CrazyPeter:
That's what the Android hating Apple sites would have you think. Wait until you see the Google pie-chart next time around.

I know all the 2011 Xperias are now ICS, the 2012 Xperia S, with the others hot on their heels, wast swathes of HTC phones from 2011/2012, along with Moto, Samsung Note/Tabs, The Transformer range.

There isn't a whole lot from the last 18 months that's not got it yet, or not due it in the coming weeks.

---------- Post added at 04:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:53 PM ----------

Really? You do know they don't run Windows apps right?

Nobody that's got a techbrain and equiped with the facts wants a Windows 8 tablet.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Reapman:
Watching the live stream now - source for JB is going to be mid July, so I don't think it will be TOO long before someone gives us JB - either Asus or CM or someone..
[Eee Pad Transformer General] captmiddy:
Yes I watched as well, SDK available today, Source Mid July, PDK available today (we don't qualify most likely unless someone wants to get into the hardware business). Available on current nexus devices by mid-July, and the Xoom I think I heard. I am really hopefully that our first gen Transformers get this because it will likely be the last update my tablet sees before it is upgraded some time next year. (2 year cycle on tablets and phones, phone already done this year now I just have to wait patiently till next year for a new tablet ;-) )

The Google Now and the new notification features is what really has me interested.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] lukesjeans:
are we loosing the tablet ui? or is it because its 7 inches? it would be kinda awkward on the 10inch screen
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mrevankyle:
Ya i agree a lot of the phones sill on 2.3 and such are because people are to tech illiterate to press the check update now button or simlpy run odin/kies. It does not mean that the update is not available. And add that to the massive ammounts of sh*** chinese kirfs you get the poor looking pie chart
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jadesse:
I can't do anything productive with Android like use MS Office. NONE of the Android office suites do what I need them to do. So Microsoft is going to put Win8 on a tablet but you are not going to be able to use office. I don't think so.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] a.mcdear:
The AOSP branches will probably see JellyBean versions coming out relatively soon after source code is released. As far as official JellyBean support from Asus... I'd say don't get your hopes up, and for sure don't count on it..

The Xoom is a so-called "AOSP flagship device", so it has direct software support from Google.

Don't hold your breath over it.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] leohongkong:
With Asus in collaboration with Google for Nexus 7, It is definite that Asus is the first OEM manufacturer to have the latest source code of Jelly Bean 4.1. Let's assume that Asus will proceed quicker for the OTA update.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Magnesus:
It has also very similar specs to Transformer so if Xoom gets it - getting in on Transformer should be easy to developers knowing their way around.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] leohongkong:
and you are referring to the aftermarket ROM?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] kookooktchoo:
Don't forget the TF201 and the Infinity ( soon)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Magnesus:

[Eee Pad Transformer General] st0nedpenguin:
Given the (still) atrocious state of the Asus ICS release for the TF101, I think I'll rely on XDA ROM chefs to get Jellybean on my tablet.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] josteink:
seconding this.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] xMini:
Officially... Jelly Bean 4.1 might be the last upgrade for the TF101!

But developers might port future upgrades...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
EXTREMELY low. Asus hasn't even managed to provide a stable ICS build just a couple of weeks before Jelly Bean is due to start shipping.

Anybody who thinks the company that couldn't get ICS running properly is going to provide them with JB is delusional.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] sidneyk:
Stock ICS runs pretty good on my wife's TF101. There are a few snags here and there, but overall it does pretty good. Personally, I prefer Revolver ROM and an OC kernel on mine. Asus is just like other companies, they are trying to support more and more devices with as much of the same code base as possible, they don't have the time or resources to invest too much time and effort on just one product. I think they do better than a lot of companies, but they still have to compete. If Jelly Bean comes our way I'll still be waiting for a dev to fix it up for me first, but if it comes stock then I'll get to try it first on my wife's tab.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
Great companies don't leave their customers hanging for 14+ weeks on a known unstable (and in many users' opinions, completely unusable) operating system, without providing any way to roll back that doesn't invalidate your warranty.

Asus has done.

Ergo Asus is not a great company.

---------- Post added at 10:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:01 PM ----------

For many, many of us, stock ICS regularly, randomly reboots both while the device is in use and while it's asleep, and it progressively gets more and more unstable until (like my own tablet) many basic, extremely popular apps simply force-close the moment you open them.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] just lou:
Chances are very good we'll get it. The TF101 hasn't reached end of life status, and they were fairly quick to push out ICS. Worse case scenario, developers will have JB Roms out in no time.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] sidneyk:
Ever heard of a company called Samsung? Their original Tegra 2 Galaxy Tab 10.1 still doesn't have an ICS update from Samsung from what I understand from a friend that owns one. Asus has provided at least 3 or 4 ICS updates so far. Yes, sometimes a company may leave you "hanging" for awhile because they're not able to reproduce a problem in order to solve it and some users don't provide enough info for them to solve their problem if they even bring it to the company's attention. There are still some custom ROMs (most of them) having RRs and SODs, too, depending on the kernel in use.

I've owned a few Asus products and have been happy with them all.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
I would much rather no update at all, than a fundamentally flawed and near-unusable update being forced on users, and after basically a third of the entire product warranty, STILL no way provided to roll back without invalidating your warranty.

Do you own the TF101? If not, you are frankly not qualified to comment.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] skull leader:
I own the TF101 and am very happy with it. I'm not sure what everyone is talking about with random reboots and force closes. I am using airplane app to make sure my battery life isn't being used when the power is off, but other than that, this tablet is what I expected since the original iPad came out. There are apps that could mess things up, but so far, the ones I use the most are working fine.

I have no reason or desire to purchase the Prime or Infinity. The original TF is still worth its hardware.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] naplesbill:
Seriously? There are two versions coming. One is ARM based and the other is an i5(x86). Guess what kind of apps will run on the i5? Yes, legacy Windows apps.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] naplesbill:
Don't worry. Office will be built-in on both versions of Microsoft's tablet.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Arjoma:
Nope, that Layout on the Nexus 7 is will not be seen on the 10 inch tables like the Transformers fortunately. If you launch a 1280x800 device in the emulator you can see that the tablet UI remains as it should be.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] gavin-phelan:
.ive got jb for my nexus its awsome
[Eee Pad Transformer General] prewed:
Chances very high, our tf101 only 1 year old
[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
No app should be able to cause a random reboot of the entire operating system. Nor for that matter does any app cause it on my HTC One X, which runs essentially the same apps and some extras, versus what is on my One X.

By your own admission, you have to run an app to prevent battery drain, something else you shouldn't have to do.

This firmware is a mess.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Nonek:
Well, I have to say, I use my Transformer every day for hours at a time. It's my GPS in my car, it's my SMS machine (Open Garden Tethering and Tablet Talk for SMS which I love), so much so that I'm wearing the keys down on the keyboard. I am running stock with Goevers (sp?) 22.6 Kernel and although I have OCCASIONALLY gotten an SOD when I have my 32gig SD card inserted, they are very few and far between.

Even without being rooted and with a custom Kernel, I have found that the latest firmware from ASUS was very stable on my machine.

The fact that not everyone is getting an SOD when the SD card is inserted would unfortunately point to either an APP that I have installed or a hardware difference in my Transformer. Asus has come out with different hardware versions of the TF101 so it is likely that they are fixing things as they go.

I would suggest that some people that are getting RR's and SOD's out the Wazoo (yes.. a technical term) may have a hardware issue that is certainly harder for any OS to deal with.

NOT saying that ICS and ASus's implimentation of it are perfect, but I would say that they have been coming out with updates on a pretty regular basis which have made my TF101 the thing that I use more than any of the other 4 computers that are feeding the power company at the moment.

My $1c
[Eee Pad Transformer General] just lou:
To those wanting JB, just be aware you're going to be giving up Flash. From Adobe today:

Beginning August 15th we will use the configuration settings in the Google Play Store to limit continued access to Flash Player updates to only those devices that have Flash Player already installed. Devices that do not have Flash Player already installed are increasingly likely to be incompatible with Flash Player and will no longer be able to install it from the Google Play Store after August 15th.

The easiest way to ensure ongoing access to Flash Player on Android 4.0 or earlier devices is to use certified devices and ensure that the Flash Player is either pre-installed by the manufacturer or installed from Google Play Store before August 15th. If a device is upgraded from Android 4.0 to Android 4.1, the current version of Flash Player may exhibit unpredictable behavior, as it is not certified for use with Android 4.1. Future updates to Flash Player will not work. We recommend uninstalling Flash Player on devices which have been upgraded to Android 4.1.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] sidneyk:
Well, you kind of made my point. With some mfrs. (Samsung, HTC, others) for a particular device you may get just that - no update, forcing you to get another device if you want a particular update. Asus could well have just left us with whatever they shipped it with and called it good enough, not offering any updates at all and not supporting any further updates. Many companies operate that way. PC makers only support the version of Windows shipped with the PC, unless they have made an upgrade available.

If you read my signature then you would see that I own a TF101, running custom ROM, custom kernel. I have 500 apps installed and I use my device daily. It has pretty much replaced a laptop and even my desktop for most of my daily needs. My wife has a stock TF101, so I get to see how that performs as well, and believe me, she will definitely let me know when something isn't working as expected. Like I said, she has had some issues with stock, i.e. Angry Birds Space locking up, but so have some on custom ROMs, kernels. It runs fine for me so far. She has an occasional RR here and there. But, she as a pretty mainstream type of non-technical user, is pretty happy with it, also using it pretty much daily.

So, I think I can CONFIDENTLY say that I am qualified to speak on this. If you just want everything to just work, get an iPad.

---------- Post added at 11:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:25 AM ----------

Have you used Windows based PCs much? It wasn't too long ago that just about any application stood a chance of bringing the whole system down, especially games. I haven't had many issues with it recently, but I haven't been playing as many games either. Bad code is bad code wherever it is ran and if it tries to do something not allowed may bring things down, unless other measures are in place to prevent it (later updates, new OS version, etc.). At times, something as mainstream as Windows was quite a mess and closed completely so only the mfr. could fix it.
