I was using my phone to read/update this forum using XDA app and reading news using Pulse apps during about 1.5 hours commuting. I also listening to podcasts or lectures for about 3-4 hours, which I downloaded using Wifi. Several chattings using gtalk, and several phone calls, on 3G/HSDPA network.

I still have 10%, and seem to be able to get 20 hours of battery life. It was like the GB 2.3.6 with default 'mot_hotplug' CPU governor. Battery life would be much better if I use 2G/GSM network only all the time :)

Not bad, I may use this setup for a while... before trying other CPU governors. :)

Note: I like minimalist settings. No live wallpaper, very few widgets. Brightness is at 'Auto'.

Thank you
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Killer Turtle:
I noticed that while monitoring the CPU and running Antutu, that the cpufreq hardly ever stayed at 1.2ghz. it dropped to 300M or 600M for most of the test.

I did get a score increase of 703 going from 5606 before switching to hotplug, to 6309 after.

Updates: 2012-07-12

Another day with hotplug CPU governor. This time, I changed the governor's sampling_rate

$ adb shell 'su -c "cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/hotplug/sampling_rate"'
100000

100000 is a default sampling rate, ie, how quick 'sensitive' the kernel to react and change the CPU frequency.

On my laptop, which runs on conservative CPU governor, the sampling rate is 25000.

I changed the sampling rate to 25000 to my RAZR, and,...I felt a bit jerky, if I scroll the screen SLOWLY, comparted to the original 100000. Next, I tried 50000, and it reduced the jerkiness, at the same time, keep the CPU frequency at the lowest for most for the time. I also changed down_threshold value, to mimic the conservative CPU governor from 35 (default) to 20. Not as smooth as the defualt 100000 sampling rate, but, still usable. Yeah, it is a small sacrifice if you want to conserve energy. :)

Now, here are all commands that I am using right now.

adb shell 'su -c "
echo hotplug > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor;
echo hotplug > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_governor;
echo 20 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/hotplug/down_threshold;
echo 50000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/hotplug/sampling_rate
"'

I hope these screenshots can speak itself :)

My activities whit the RAZR were...

1) Listening to 2 podcasts ...total about 2 hours (Google Listen)

2) Listening 1 lecture . 1.5 hours (Google Play Music)

3) Browse/read news from 8 sites in Pulse :

4) Sevaral gtalks

5) Several short phone calls.

6) Reading this forum using XDA App :)

Quite good battery life fo a low usage.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] dafi87:
Sorry, but why did you lower the down_threshold? This means your CPU stays longer in higher frequencies because the utilization has to drop under 20% to scale down.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bahathir:
Thank you for your feedback.

You are right. I just copied the value (20) from my laptop which is running on conservative CPU governor.You can always try with other value, while monitoring the cores' frequency. I did few experiments with value of 50. and do some 'real world' usage, such as... playing Angry Birds SPACE. :)

Based on my observation, not much differences between value of 20 and 50. but, it seem that value 20 able to keep lower speed more gracefully. Most probably this related to the sampling_rate. The cpu frequency changes are done in microseconds.. :)

Need some more tests for this matter. :)

Thank you.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] daxisalive:
So this means that hotplug is as efficient as interactive plus saves battery?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bahathir:
Based on ny daily usage, hotplug gives me a small improvement in performances and battery life. YMMV.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Nabeel Kiani:
Well I unlocked my bootloader no problem, then i tried to flash a recovery to which i get the messages okay. After that I tried to boot into recovery via cmd with the command adb reboot recovery which worked and my device turned off, turned back on and for a split second had some red text under the HTC logo and immediatly started back up. I then tried to go to bootloader which I did via cmd and adb reboot Bootloader, and now above unlocked it says tempered. Please help me out with what I should do. Also there is no recovery option available. I was trying to flash TWRP.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] danny39:
The red text just tells you you're on an unlocked bootloader. And the tampered stamp stays there for all eternity after you've unlocked the bootloader.

Anyway you have nothing to worry about. It's just what happens when you unlock the bootloader.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Nabeel Kiani:
Thank you sir just got into recovery I was really worried! :)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] 18th.abn:
You CAN get rid of the tampered flag by relocking the bootloader and running a ruu. But your bootloader will say relocked in bright red still so it wouldnt matter. Just sayin'..:-)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Nabeel Kiani:
Yea no point of that :)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] sixty_oz:
No one knows of a way to get rid of the "re-lock" and have it just say locked?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mikelebz:
Maybe I'm wrong, but I was under the impression that if you re-lock and run RUU, it changes back to original "Locked" state...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] rohan32:
I'm pretty sure it stays as "Relocked" even with an RUU

You can only change that with S-OFF

Hi guys, installed the CM9 ROM yesterday, everything seemed to go well. I have installed the google apps, installed all my other apps from the store, wifi working well. However simply can't get any mobile reception.

I have tried searching everywhere trying to find out which modem to install. I have already tried about 4 or 5 from the list, just to see if it works, but nothing is working so far.

I am really hoping that someone has some info on this.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Long time lurker of XDA and finally decided to join. This forum has been a great source of information and helped me finally jump to a ROM on my original Captivate. Just wish I did it earlier instead of suffering with the stock GB fiasco I lived with before buying my Galaxy Nexus.

So thanks to all the devs and members here who make XDA a great place to learn. I hope to contribute to this forum soon.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shootertwist14:
good day, just wondering if there are other roms that give an option to use the nav keys? i'm planning to disable the capacitive buttons on my s3 and use the nav ones instead... so far i've read that the unofficial AOKP port can do this but i'm having second thoughts as the rom is having camera issues for some.

is there any other rom or launcher that can do this? thanks in advance for helping out a newbie. tried reading all of last night but the lack of search on threads (maybe not yet allowed on my account) makes it tough to do so

[LG Nitro HD] Jarvarro:
Not sure if this is the right forum but, I got an LG LTE P930 from Bell Canada just over a month ago. The call quality is horrible, when turning the volume up past halfway (not speaker), it sounds like the speaker is blown, or something is rattling.

Its got the stock OS I haven't done anything to it, never dropped or anything. The place I got it from said they would have to send it away, could take 8 weeks.

I was wondering if anyone has this problem too, if it's an issue with this type of phone I might as well keep it, if it's my phone in particular I'll have to send it away.
[LG Nitro HD] drumist:
No, that's not normal. I'd suggest that you contact LG directly instead of going through the retailer where you bought the device. I can't imagine it would take such a long time to get it fixed or replaced.
[LG Nitro HD] dillonr:
yea, when i sent it out through bell they said 5-7 days (it took 7 days), it shouldn't take weeks...if you would have brought it in within the 30 days you could have gotten a replacement phone, because it would have been classified "DOA"

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] greek goddess:
Hi, I've searched around the forum, but i don't see any solutions. Am trying to run the unroot ruu, but I keep getting error code "171", telling me basically, that it can't find my phone, that it is not plugged in, i think. I really need to take it in for warranty repair, cause I am having serious issues with the proximity sensor.

Any idea guys?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] detcup4evr:
Do u have the drivers installed, debug on, charge only mode enabled? It has been a while since I did the ruu, so some of those steps may be over kill
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] greek goddess:
All of the above are done. i rooted fine from this computer, the message tells it's a usb connection error.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Docarut:
I would try downloading the drivers again. Download htc sync which will download drivers also. Then go into control panel>uninstall programs and then uninstall htc sync. Drivers will remain. Then plug phone in again and see if computer sees phone.

http://www.htc.com/www/software/htc-sync-manager/

Doc
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Philosuffer:
When I was doing this I had to install the drivers twice. When the RUU attempts to reboot into the bootloader, if you have device manager open, you can see that it drops out and no longer recognizes your phone and you'll see a device with a yellow exclamation point next to it.

So, next time you try when it reboots into the bootloader load the drivers quickly (same way you have before). If you're fast enough it'll continue the RUU process. If you're not fast enough, oh well, the RUU should just work when you try it again.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] greek goddess:
ok, so when i rooted, i couldn't get the root to run on my desktop (almost bricked it I thought) cause it kept saying "too many devices" and it would get stuck. then got this crazy idea to do it from my laptop and voila! it worked flawlessly first time. Then when I started having issues with the proximity sensor and going back for warranty I had to unroot, right?

Only this time, no matter what I could not get the ruu to run on my laptop. So again, this crazy idea says go to the desktop and voila! it worked! I think that is too friggin " weird!

So I am good now, thanks!

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lonely_Boz:
Hello,

i hope you can help me.

I'm using MildWild 4.3 based on Oxygen 2.3.2 with Thalamus kernel.

When my desire is on stand-by modus, it consumes 1 % per 45-55 minutes. Because of that i'm very glad.

But when i use my desire, p.e when iuse play store without anything downloading it consumes 1 % per 2-4 minutes.

My question is: is that normal? Or must i change any settings or an another kernel etc???
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lonely_Boz:
Can nobody help me?

I don't know why you don't reply? This is my second thread, and the first thread I've not recieved any answers either.

Well, it is 18 hours past after unplugging my phone and I have 71 %. But I'm used my phone 15 minutes after unplugging.

Is there all right?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddiehk6:
it seems maybe a little high. screen should be the biggest consumer of battery once you start using your phone.

however i don't know your screen brightness and age of battery.

in standby seems ok, you can use something like 'betterbatterystats' to double check no app is keeping it in partial wakelock.

inbuilt kernel, or stock thalamus kernel (in my sig) should be fine. personally i use inbuilt cpu settings ondemand 245 - 998MHz, no other apps needed, and i think battery use is fine.

for what it's worth, here's another response to another battery use query...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dariush_jab:
Yes ,Its normal

hi

in the android phone its normal battery usage , but for better test u can change CPU governor to smartassv2.

don't forget battery Consumption mostly depend on kind of Battery and thats Amper
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lonely_Boz:
thanks for the answers,

I'm using thalamus kernel, 2.6.35.14_r-stable.

Screen brightness is automatic and i've bought my battery 1-1,5 years ago, original desire battery.

I also have Better Bacttery Stats, by partial wakelocks i have since unplugged:

Activity Manager-Launch with 2m 6s and 318 counts.

Alarm Manager with 1m 7s and 1244 counts.

wifi with 10s and 501 counts

sleep broadcoast with 8s and 460 counts

and other programs.

Since unplugged: 10 h

deep spleep: 8h 7m

Awake: 1h 54m

Screen on: 1h 43m

KWL: 8m 20s

PWL: 6m 9s

İs there all right, and I don't know which programs are these.

and under cpu governor I don't have smartassv2, i have powersave, ondemand, performance. Min CPU frequency 245 MHz, max CPU frequency 998 MHz, and what is smartassv2?

And can you please explain in a bit simple English?

My English isn't good.:(
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peikojose:

How i said, it drains by using my desire. On standby, its all right.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddiehk6:
looks fine, you can see that there is no app keeping the phone awake for very long...max 2m 6s.

smartassV2 is another CPU governor. whether it is better than ondemand will require you to measure the drain for similar activities, though personally i don't think it's worth it.

screen is still meant to consume the most battery as long as you are using the phone, regardless of govenor. no change of rom/kernel/touch screen phone will change this fact.

i can suggest turning off auto brightness and using a lower manual one. have a widget to toggle between low and high when you need to (many in google play).
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lonely_Boz:

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MidnightDevil:
Well... I've seen things with the same rom, same kernel and different results... mainly due apps keeping the phone awake, but in your scenario is not that bad. I loose 3% overnight with CM 5 MW's version which is awesome, but once i start using my phone.. let me see. I've lost 10% with about 20 minutes of browsing and 20 minutes of gaming... I'm using ManU kernel which is pretty good with battery life, but not compatible with oxygen version of MildWild.

Do a Nandroid backup and try CM version, just to check the differences if you're up to it.

Also, flash ManU kernel afterwards :-)

Let us know if you need help, you have a drain but not awfully bad. However 1% every couple of minutes seems a bit too much .
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lonely_Boz:
Well, i don't think that there is a ROM problem. Many people using this ROM have good results than me.
