Device is THUNDRBOLT

Hello all I hope your having a great day.

I am trying to assist a friend in getting data to STICK on an LTE DInc. Running page plus on what looks to me like stock firmware with ONLY updated APN'S. I have no issue flashing if necc but wanted to make sure that I'm not missing something.

The prob lies exclusively in getting DATA to stick. Page begins with 3g SIG then DROPS.

I appreciate your time as well as the tremendous source of info on this slick device.

Does this toolkit still work for rooting and unlocking an Incredible 4G? I just got the phone and I want to unlock and root it, but there are very few instructions floating around on the net. Since this hasn't been updated in awhile, I just want to make sure this is still a viable option.

Thanks....

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nyancatland:
Hi everyone :)

So I recently got a S2, upgraded it from stock Gingerbread to stock ICS via Kies, then flashed CM9. CM9 was great, but I quickly noticed worse battery drain than that of GB. I sorted out all wakelocks, now facebook is the top one in better battery stats list and it's only 10mins in a day so I don't think that's a problem. When charging, vbus_present shows up and keeps the phone from sleeping, but that's a normal thing when the phone is plugged, right? CPUspy shows the phone is in deep sleep the majority of time I don't use it, so I assume I have no wakelock problem.

But even then, the battery still seems a bit bad. When in deep sleep with wifi and mobile data off, it would lose around 1.5% per hour; and with moderate/high use (internet with wifi or gaming), I'd be lucky to have it last 3 hours. Charging to 100% from zero takes about 3 hours.

I also tried recalibrating the battery through BC, but haven't noticed too much of a difference.

Recently I found a guide on disabling fast dormancy via the build.prop file. Still waiting for results though.

So, my questions

1, My battery usage seems normal, doesn't it? 1.5% per deep sleep hour is acceptable I guess, but 3 hours of usage seems a bit short. Too short.

2, What effects does fast dormancy have?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CompuTechnoPro™:
1) Totally unacceptable. Mine lasts at least 7-8 hours with high use..

Does your phone heat up while the heavy use ???

What brightness level do you use for the display ???

How many apps do you have that can gain internet access ???

2) By default, the Samsung Galaxy S II has Fast Dormancy support enabled. One of the goals of Fast Dormancy is to increase the battery life of a device, by limiting the amount of signaling between the phone and the cell network. But, when Fast Dormancy it is not enabled in the network and is enabled on the phone it ironically works the other way around, and actually drains more battery than before.

Luckily, Fast Dormancy can be disabled on the phone. For the Galaxy S II, do the following:

Dial *#9900#

Press “Disable Fast Dormancy“

Press “Exit“.

Easy as that!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nyancatland:
Thanks for the suggestion :) I have brightness manual and at around 20%. Wifi is disabled when not used, and mobile data is always turned off unless I need it, so basically apps only get internet access when I want them to. I have also disabled sync for both google and facebook, but fb still pushes notifications to me while it's connected. Is that a major battery drain, and if yes, how to disable it?

Anyways, facebook, instagram, youtube are the only apps than can access the internet. No messengers or anything that may keep a wakelock.

My phone doesn't heat up during normal use, maybe a bit when I do some gaming (Max Payne?)

Also, *#9900# doesn't do anything on my phone. It doesn't bring up a menu or anything like that.

Install BetterBatteryStats (search for it on here/Google Play), might help you nail what's causing the drain.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nyancatland:
Yes I did, as said in my original post. After a night the highest wakelock are just around 10 minutes, and that one was facebook. Uninstalling it however had no effect.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Thinking logically, there's got to be something else in those stats (partial wakelocks in particular) that's causing that drain. There's no way having fast dormancy enabled/disabled is either going to cause/fix the drain you've mentioned getting '3 hours of usage'; (I can get 5 & a bit hours screen on with CM9 & variable usage/mostly 'moderate' use) given everything else you say you've tried.

Post BBS logs here if you want someone to have a look.

Edit to add - Also post a screenshot of the 2nd screen in settings/battery, the one that has history 'details' at the top, with the 'mobile network signal' bar underneath the main battery graph.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nyancatland:
Here you go: pastebin.com/1UwicChJ

I just registered half a day ago and don't have enough posts yet to paste links, so sorry :D the phone was only on battery for nearly 2 hours with some light browsing and facebook, but I hope it works.

Anyway, I looked through my running processes, and dsp manager is the only non-OS process running, besides facebook. I got CM9 so it came by default. Could dspmanager be the culprit?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicholas1520:
It's a new phone he's got there and I doubt it could be anything battery related itself.

I'm using CM9 nightlies and I get around 9 hours moderate use. It has been said though that a lot of these CM9 builds have battery drain and heat issues.

I use Juicedefender to help with the battery life which seems to work.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nyancatland:
About 1/3 of this time was on wifi browsing. The drop is much more drastic if I play games.

Delivered using Nyan Cat's rainbow powers.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
A couple of observations. There's nothing that stands right out in the BBS log. The other one is, looking at that graph you've lost ~15% over a bit under 2 hrs. The screen has been on most of the time the phone has been awake (confirmed by the BBS log) if you look at the respective bars. You've also been using WiFi for most of the time the screen has been on/phone has been awake.

Roughly speaking, going by the screenshot, you'd get ~5hrs+/- screen on time if you kept using the phone in the same way you had during that just under 2 hrs, and this is pretty much normal. I haven't had drain issues for ages, so I double checked my details on the 2nd screen of settings/battery to make sure CM9 is reporting these details accurately (screenshot attached). Certainly in my case, this screenshot reflects what my phone had been doing for the just under 5 hrs it had been off charge/since last reboot; that is, >90% of the time in idle/deep sleep. So it probably isn't CM9 reporting these details inaccurately in your case either.

The BBS log & screenshot don't illustrate the problem you talked about in your OP. Now, if I had to take a stab in the dark at what's causing problems when you do have them (and FWIW, I do believe you're having the problems you mentioned in your OP at times), in the absence of any other info, maybe your WiFi router is constantly sending the phone packets (what's been referred to as a 'dirty router' on here before) when you're connected to WiFi & not actually using it. This scenario has been known to cause relatively high levels of drain.

So to be honest with you, based on that screenshot & the BBS log, I'm not really seeing a problem.

Now, if you want to post the same again when you actually have a problem with drain similar to what you described in your OP, happy to have a look at them. But for that ~2hrs covered by the BBS log & screenshot you posted, that's pretty much normal.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nyancatland:
Okay, much appreciated :) so I guess I'll take it from your reply that 5 hours with wifi browsing isn't too bad. Seems okay, but I still find it a bit strange that (in my case) wifi browsing uses just as much battery as games do. I always thought it was a light activity!

Or maybe it wasn't the battery that had a problem, but that I set my expectations a bit too high. I came to this S2 from a BlackBerry 9700, whose battery would last half a week with very frequent use. But anyway, I just got this phone for a week, so I consider myself a pretty heavy user. Probably when I get familiar with it, I won't feel the need to play with it every five minutes and battery will last a bit longer then! xD
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Nah. Anything with screen on is far from 'light activity'. Screen consumes far & away the most juice. In saying that, I've seen some people on here say they can get 8-9 hrs screen on with 2000mAh battery. How they do it I have absolutely no idea.

But if yeah, 5 hrs with the screen on most of the time whether browsing or playing games (games in particular are very CPU/GPU intensive & thus use a lot of zzzzs; unless they're really basic games like chess or similar), or anything else isn't too bad. Can you do better ? Obviously, if people say they can get 8-9 hrs. But it's not a matter of doing A, B & C and you'll magically end up with massive screen on times. Every phone is setup & used differently, and getting the absolute max out of every charge takes a lot of trial & error and experimenting with settings/setup.

There are tons of threads about the subject on here if you feel like going down that path. For me, I'm happy with the battery life I get these days because you can really obsess over it & spend a lot of time stressing over it/trying to maximise it for often very little gain. I'd rather simply use my phone a lot during the day & charge it at night.

Yeah Crackberries are like Japanese cars, they can run on fumes pretty much ;-) Having a dual core processor, a decent GPU & a huge screen kinda changes things.

There is one thing you can do fairly easily tho. And that's to make sure the phone spends as much time as possible in deep sleep when you're not using it. That will ensure that you have enough juice to get you by when you do want to use it. Simple ways to help achieve that is to turn off data/WiFi completely when you're not using it (tho many people don't like to do this for different reasons; which is perfectly OK if you're happy to live with the resultant drain), and make sure you've got no apps that are doing things they shouldn't be doing (like syncing, for example) while the phone should be sleeping. Again, there are lots of threads about same if you ever feel like a bit of light reading ;-)

So yeah, if you do find you experience drain that's not normal/outside the usual pattern you have, definitely post details & people can have a look for you. And as you said, you'll get to know what really is normal with regard to drain & so on is as you use the phone more (I tended to use it constantly for that first couple of weeks as well).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nyancatland:
Already took such measures. Wakelocks killed my battery over my first night with the phone, and I woke up after 7 hours to find a ~50% battery completely empty. Now things are alright, I clear CPUSpy stats before I sleep and wake up to around 95% of deep sleep time. Overnight drain varies between 5 and 10%.

And yes, yes you are right. Maybe I should stop going nuts. I'm checking BBS and CPUSpy every hour, reading every XDA thread on battery, and calculating my battery drainage every morning I wake up :laugh::laugh::laugh:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Re: dirty/'noisy' WiFi networks, have a look at this post as an example of what I was talking about above.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nyancatland:
Umm...so I just woke up, and noticed a wakelock in the kernel category. It was PowerManagerService, and it occupied around half an hour. Overnight, aftet I've slept 10 hours (got a day off :D), my battery came from 24% down to 13%. That's a rate of roughly 1% per hour. Is that normal? And also, what is that PowetManagerService wakelock?

[General Questions and Answers] tjubrock:
Does anyone know if there a way to make a fast charge widget by using taker were you can turn fast charge on and off and have the icon(widget) change when you turn on and off the widget?
[General Questions and Answers] rmiles7721:
Probably is you use Secure Settings. I believe there's a toggle that will enable Fast charge. Just create a task to enable it and then create a widget to turn it on.

Edit - It worked fine. You'll need to download Secure Settings (and the helper) and make sure to enable fast charge in the settings, then go into Tasker, create a new task, plugin, secure settings. Save it, create a widget and select Tasker, then Task, choose the one you just created.
[General Questions and Answers] buffal0b1ll:
This works great, but is there a way I can make Tasker echo back the status that I've switched to/from in a notification? or change icon between on and off? I can toggle with the widget, but if I forget the state I'm in I have to to terminal to find out.

Thanks
[General Questions and Answers] fawkes21:
You could have it set a variable that you create to 1 when on and 0 when off (basically toggling between the two). Then just set up to check the variable and create an Alert pop-up telling you it is On or Off . . .
[General Questions and Answers] SilverSurfR:
Was looking to do the same thing. Here's what I came up with, xml in zip attached.

You'll need Secure Settings installed.

What the task does.

1. Reads /sys/kernel/fast_charge/force_fast_charge and stores value in variable %FASTC (0 = off, 1 = on)

2. Toggles Fast Charge using the Secure Settings plugin

3. The next set of commands flash a message and change the widget icon depending on the status of %FASTC

Setup a widget that uses the task, and you should be all set. Keep in mine changing the name of the Task/Widget will require editing the "change widget icon" commands.

Edit: Looks like I made a boo-boo. The read statement happens too fast and would still get the old value of force_fast_charge before Secure Settings changes it.

I moved the statements around and edited the IF statements for switching icons and flashing messages. attachment updated.

Hey guys please help. I barely use my phone and the battery still drains very quickly. If I charge it up to 100% before I go to sleep and then unplug it, by morning it is at 50%. The only sync option I have on is Gmail mail. I have 4G and wifi on but I really doubt those are killing my battery. In the time it took me to type this message I lost 2%. I can't live like this! Suggestions?

Ps for the first 2 or 3 days that I had my phone the battery life was fine. No issues.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Frostacious:
Turn off 4g and WiFi for starters. Don't need 4g since lte is not out yet. And if your house has no WiFi makes no sense to have it on searching for something that is not there. Also hold home bottom and close apps and clear ram.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] AndroidLonghorn:
I've been having the same issue on my att galaxy s3. I think there is a bug possibly when the phone is having issues maintaining a data connection. I always know when I am going to have an issue b/c the phone will stay warm even when I'm not using the phone. The only solution I have found is to turn off mobile data. Restarting the phone every day seems to help as well. There are a few other threads from people having the same issue. I'm guessing it's the data connection connecting and disconnecting over and over again. Cell standby will usually show up as taking up the most battery life.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] TeeRoPrice:
I have At&t in San Francisco. We have very fast LTE here. I shouldn't have to turn it off. That's why I bought the phone. :o

Unfortunately the lte does drain your battery. So does the keyboard vibrating with every click. Get a app that with shut down background apps when your screen is off and temporally disable data. Works for me since I usually have at least 10 to 12 apps running that I forget to turn off.

If you're using widgets that auto sync like fb, weather etc. By default they're set to sync every hour. The first day I got my phone I got 4 hours screen time and about 17 hours total on the battery, but I didn't have any widgets running. after I started running fb and weather it went to 1 hour screen time and about 9 hours total on the battery. Google+ was the main juice guzzler.
