This thread has quite a few battery mod examples. I think the top one is similar or exactly like the circle battery mod I used:

I would like to second the request by Klubhead about Google Services being so high.

I've noticed it under Better Battery Stats > Network as the highest user of background data.

Is this normal? Is the usage higher under 4.2 or has it always been this way and I never noticed it?

I have removed Google Currents since I don't use it and saw a post earlier that it was a big battery drain.

Thanks everyone! Love this ROM Mmuzzy!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Wartickler:
I'm a .NET developer by trade but this is perfectly understandable.

I just realized that my previous message was almost disrespectful in its tone. I apologize. Your work with this ROM has been a godsend. Having the search button back is priceless to me. Being able to long press for voice command is a precious shortcut that I missed from my OG. Thank you.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmuzzy:
Currents is a big battery drain and lag issue if automatic sync is on. With it toggled off it's much better.

Eek. That sig. lol

Tiny kernel 2.2.0 is working well for me on the 12/8 build.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmuzzy:
I also strongly recommend Tiny's kernel. I've had the best luck with it to the point where I don't bother with any others... except stock because I have a bad habit of forgetting to flash everything.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RW-1:
I've found the included stock kernel to be fine as well...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gorillabiscuit:
i'm getting between 15 and 25 hour battery life on stock. My suggestion would be to download CPU Spy or Trickster MOD and track whether you're getting deep sleep. My guess is that you're not. As suggested Currents is a drain, but it might be another app not quite ready for 4.2 causing your lack of DS and therefore your battery drain. Please report back as to your DS percentage, as I'd like to hear that your battery is doing better.

Hmm, I need some tethering help.

I can't seem to tether correctly. Before running Muzzy, I was able to connect to my tether network just fine. But now, any device I connect to it will do just that. Connect, but nothing more. It will be connect to the tether network, but has no internet access.

Any ideas?

edit-

A simple reboot solved my issue...

*slaps self*
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gorillabiscuit:
Are you recently converted to mmuzzy's ROM? Did you use the super wipe? Sometimes dirty flashing causes tether issues (among others)... My tether works perfectly.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JkdJedi:
+1! Tiny kernel most stable of them all. Franco burns battery quick, derkernel and Zen give me morning SOD. Tiny just works, period. (Stock is cool too) but I needs my -24 contrast 200, 200, 200 color scheme. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gorillabiscuit:
No battery issues here boss... FTR, stock kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Flomaster:
EDIT: I did a reboot followed by opening gos status and downloading stuff and it locked instantly

How or where can I find the stock kernel in the Roms zip file. I flashed tiny kernel and now I can't get a GPS to lock.

I've gotten a GPS lock on tinykernel on multiple ROMs on every version of the kernel. Kernel has NOTHING to do with a GPS lock. Oh, I see your edit but I still want to reiterate.

This may be a better place to report this issue:

Just flash the ROM again, that or open the zip file w/ 7zip from your PC and click n drag the boot.img to your desktop. Then fastboot that image to your phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Flomaster:
It's working now. I'm not sure why it wouldn't lock, but I let it sit trying for over 5 minutes.

Maybe it was the cloud cover from the storm we had.

Thanks

I have had that issue as well. Screen goes off and never comes back.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SparkyXI:
Worst fears...

So my phone did some odd things in the middle of the night a few days back - boot looping while saying the battery was dead (was charging). I pulled the battery, and all seemed well...

Then it happened. Driving with it plugged in... started to smell burning plastic... then it shut down. Oi. Had a look, and both the micro usb connector and jack were blackened on the right side.

The phone powers up, and seems to work just fine at this point, however, a charging cable doesn't even fit in the phone anymore because of the charred silicon.

I have an order in for a new USB port / ribbon cable. Luckily I replaced the same part for a co-worker a week ago (go figure). In the meantime, back to the Droid Charge...

I'll report back. F**k.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JkdJedi:
This is the infamous SOD ...Sleep Of Death. It has shown up on Trinity and Zen kernel for me. Never on stock or Tiny.

---------- Post added at 07:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:36 PM ----------

That's crazy, I heard about this happening. So charging the phone without the battery in place is a No No. :thumbdown:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] klobkelosh:
I'm like 90% sure this is an app our setting thing, not kernel or ROM. What apps are you running? I've narrowed it down to the weather channel app, Adobe flash, csipsimple. The other thing out might be is animations settings. Do you have them all turned off? For me with these apps uninstalled and animation on, no screen of death.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SparkyXI:
No, the battery was in place. Charging per normal. Had to be something with the USB port. Either way, it's fried now, and hopefully replacing the port fixes the issue...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] donnyp1:
I have none of those apps and have gotten sod with trinity kernel. I've heard it may be location based apps. I've wondered if it has something to dovwith the "colors" for trinity. I love trinity kernels, but love 4.2 more, so I'm sticking with tiny.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HarshReality:
Curious but I can't find development options in settings...

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] szimmerm:
I've had it happen on stock. Anybody know if Franco's kernel experiences the SOD as well?

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Not to add to confusion but I had heard that it was having smart reflex controls being on in Trickster. Something about throttling power consumption down too far to power the screen; hence it freezing off like that. Since I had installed lean kernel on Codename Android and turning all smart reflex controls off I hadn't had the problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tpinkfloyd:
I have TWC app but it did it even when it wasn't on it. I have gotten it with a fresh flash. I have heard the auto brightness is the issue haven't tested it yet. I have strictly the ROM with a boot animation no special Kernel or anything so I doubt it is trinity causing the issue
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jwa0042:
I guess my phone just really likes leankernel. I was getting moderately poor battery life on stock kernel, switched to tiny kernel and it got worse. 90% to 0 in about 7 hours, mostly idling, screen brightness all the way down during use and on WiFi 98% of the time.

Switched to leankernel and all is well again. 7 hours has only taken it down by about 25%, same conditions. Just my experience.

So glad that's fixed, this ROM is super smooth and stable.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
What are your settings in lean kernel?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Teh_Higgins:
Removed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jwa0042:
All default, nothing changed yet. On 4.1 I ran Jakebites optimal settings in leantweaks. Haven't messed with it yet on 4.2.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tiny4579:
Sounds like an app issue. The common misconception is that the kernel can make a huge difference in battery life. Well it doesn't unless there is something wrong with it. I don't think there's anything wrong with my kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] veloslave:
Wow... my bad, sorry for the late reply.

Yes, it is working well and I am using HDR+
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zerocool79346:
Agreed. Especially since yours is the first kernel to pull me off Trinity since I starting using customs on my GNex, just like it was with the Inc and Chads kernel. Keep up the kickass work tiny.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Thanks for the suggestion guys. I'll probably tried that out. Should I do a wipe on my phone, flash the kernel first, then re flash the ROM? Or can I flash the kernel over the ROM without a wipe
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] klobkelosh:
Flash over without a wipe.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cloverz7:
Has anyone had issues with delayed text messages etc? Would this be a rom issue or a radio issue? I'm on the 4.1.1 radio's and flashed this rom Thanksgiving day, if that helps with anything that's been changed?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Should just be able to flash. If you're feeling weird, you could wipe cache/dalvik, but there's not pressing NEED to with a kernel, at least according to my understanding. It's never failed me. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HarshReality:
That is some damn funny ****. Thanks :)

Low Volume

has anyone experienced low in-call volume with the latest build?? I installed it today and my call volume was very low even at max volume.

thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RW-1:
Tiny, I would agree as well, even if I am only running the stock one.

What people forget is you don't get the following you have amassed with shoddy work ! (an understatement, but it gets the point across...) :)

I may yet try yours, or go back on Franco's, but tot ell the truth, I'm not tweaking my installed kernel's yet, it would just be installed.

Should I still try it out? (I'm on wifi most of the time, and so far Stock actually get's me through my day....) Just askin ... don't want to burden the thread, if you have time, PM me ...

Hey, thanks!

Hmm. It's a theory but check that your volume didn't get set lower after I changed the scale. Make sure it's actually set as loud as you think it is now that the upper value is 30 instead of 7... unless you flashed the script to restore stock values.

EDIT: Although you did say you have it at max.

I'm on the November 30th ROM and am currently in st johns usvi. Since my connection is bad down here it was draining my battery like crazy. I put it in airplane mode in hopes to save the battery. But it literally dies overnight even with nothing on. Is airplane mode not working correctly?

So I'm looking for a 36 or so DPI navbar mod with a battery mod that works on the newest build. Is there one out there. I cant find any that use the traditional 3 button layout.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JkdJedi:
I had to flash kagagameguys mod to fix this, it helped somewhat, but the last build 11/29 was noticeably louder. :eek:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] techspecs:
Same issue for me with low call volume on your latest release. However, it didn't seem low while I was using my corded headset. New headset though so I have no baseline.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ijeenyus:
Dirty or clean flash? I flash clean and never got that. Try clearing cache or reinstalling chrome.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Here's a 36DPI navbar, you'll have to flash both files. The first patches the navbar size to 36, then the second patches the softkeys for compatibility and adds the battery mod (they're still the stock softkeys but corrected so that the "back" button isn't larger than the other buttons).

Navbar 36 DPI

Softkeys Patch/Battery Mod

Double check to see if the phone is deep-sleeping with CPU Spy/Trickster Mod if you already have that installed for kernel tweaks. That sounds more like a rogue app than anything, as my airplane mode works just fine. If the phone IS deep-sleeping, try rebooting into safe mode (long press "power off" option from reboot menu) and see if the battery drain is still astronomical. I'm still on the 11/30 build and often leave my phone unplugged overnight with only 10-20% battery loss.

I can't reproduce this issue either. Try seeing if there's an updated version of chrome available in the market - or if you have already updated the latest version in the market, go into app settings and "uninstall updates" for chrome. See if there's any change after that.

It reminds me of any Bugless Beast thread. There's little to no issues to worry about/fix so there's not a whole lot to talk about after the same couple of questions have been asked/answered a few hundred times.

I love seeing my username butchered all over the place, it's pretty hysterical (I had no idea it was so hard to remember!) If it helps you can just call me Game Guy or just KMA - those are my initials :laugh:

I don't talk on the phone much but I did have a call earlier today and didn't notice a difference in the volume level. It shouldn't relate to the volume steps mod at all - strange that flashing my mod would cause any difference. I know some kernels include an option for volume level boosting - is it possible that it is kernel related?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mcp770:
Mmuzzy

Love this rom and I've tried them all so when I say this one is best I say it with first hand experience. Thanks for sharing this with us.

However, lol. I would love to see quick reply SMS added. I really think Google missed the boat leaving that one out as replies from the drop down is probably my favorite and most used mod. Food for thought for baking that one in. Thanks again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmuzzy:
Maybe putting the voice call value to 30 didn't agree with it.

EDIT: I didn't see kmagameguy's post but I have to agree with his points. I can put the values back to more moderate values for testing but I can't understand why changing the steps would affect the level.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] b.huss2:
Is there an existing mod to disable the alarm notification in the status bar?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ajj915:
That was fast. Thanks kmagameguy
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] techspecs:
Yeah, didn't really make sense to me either but I had the volume cranked all the way up (confirmed visually) and it sounded like it was halfway. Can't say 100% there is no way it could be the kernel as I'm on tiny but I'm always on tiny. Also, music volume and bluetooth are normal so it doesn't seem across the board.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmuzzy:
I'll back off the values on voice calls and see if that makes a difference.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Me too! I've tried CM a bunch of times on my OG DROID and incredible 2, both times it didn't really run very well. This ROM has never given me a single issue, except for ones I've made for myself by mistake.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Completely clean super wipe flash. Fixed permission and reinstalled chrome and seems to be fixed.

Mmuzzy - I just decompiled and ran a diff on my 11/30 framework.jar and the brand new 12/8 framework.jar fresh from your ROM update. There's absolutely no difference in any of the java code EXCEPT in the way you disabled the scroll cache (AbsListView.java/smali) - so unless there was a change in a different file somewhere, I see absolutely no reason why the in-call volume would be lower than what it was previously, nor do I think changing back to the stock steps or a smaller increment would make any difference. Is it possible it's anecdotal?

If you've always been on tiny's kernel then I can't imagine that would be the issue either. Very, very bizarre circumstances considering you're not the only one with the issue.

Late response, just saw this question. Defaults (if memory serves) should be:

Min - 350 MHz

Max - 1200 MHz

Screen Off Maximum - 700 MHz
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmuzzy:
Absolutely. I didn't see how it would have mattered after I went back to check the values. What you just checked makes me feel better since I was just making an edjamacated guess on the spot I needed to change them. ;)

Thanks for checking that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
I know this is the wrong place to ask but I wasn't getting responses else where. I was wondering, Is it safe for the battery to leave the Nexus 7 on the charger for the first time over night? Will it damage the battery at all if I do? I don't want to over charge it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] georgeascott:
I spent the weekend building 4.2.1 from source a few times, but was unable to get the camera, GPS and Google Talk to work.. I'd used this ROM on an earlier build and had a few issues, all of which seem to have been resolved now. It was fun, if time consuming, to build my own, but it is no substitute for something that actually works. Great job to all those involved and many many thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmuzzy:
It'll be fine. The tablet won't charge beyond full.

Thanks The binaries from Google aren't quiet complete but you can grab them from an OTA or another ROM. Location services needs to be configured to work properly and is probably what's causing Google Now and GPS to be funky.

This is what Craig Gomez gave us to fix location services:

Edit /device/samsung/toro/overlay/frameworks/base/core/res/res/values/config.xml

To enabled Google Network Location Services add these lines

Code:

<string-array name="config_locationProviderPackageNames" translatable="false">

<!-- The standard AOSP fused location provider -->

<item>com.android.location.fused</item>

<!-- The Google Network Location Services location provider -->

Hi everyone, after hours searching, I am unable to find a long press vol to skip track mod compatible with this ROM. I found one on another thread that works with 4.2 but it borked my slide to unlock lock screen. I slide it but does not unlock. Any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pypen:
Great rom.

There is only one thing missing, that I cannot find... A brightness mod!

kmagameguy (or muzzy), would it be possible to add a mod, that changes the brightness steps (just like with the volume).

The biggest problem that I have with stock is that the darkest setting is 8 (I believe). Would it be possible to set the darkest to 1?

Its just so painful early in the morning to look at the screen...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Are you referring to auto brightness or the manual brightness slider?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Howie Dub:
Use Simple Audio Manager. You only need one click from the homescreen widget to control your volume settings.

I agree. Many times I go outside and don't think to turn my brightness up and have a hard time trying to find the brightness slider. How would it affect the stability and smoothness of the ROM if the mod where you slide your finger across the notification bar to adjust brightness was added? Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
I don't know that it's much of a stability issue so much as a desire to keep it as stock-ish as possible on Muzzy's part. Just from what I've seen here, I could be wrong tho. If that mod is somewhere else for 4.2, you might be able to flash it independently.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ncvikingx97:
Would you say this rom has a certain amount of time to" bake" before it is good to go? It was smooth last night, but is less smooth now, how long will it take for this rom to for sure be nice and sunk on my phone? Odd question. Thank you for the rom by the way, very nice
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmuzzy:
It shouldn't really. Make sure things like Currents isn't background sync'ing and turn it off if it is. Things like this are a source of lag.

Hey so i just installed this on my GNEX ....and im noticing significantly slower data speeds (worse reception). Think i just need to try a different kernal? and if so, does anyone suggest one? Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] techspecs:
There are no radios with this rom so you're seeing something incidental. It's a known thing that reception appears lower by way of the bars but it's just a software tweak to how the bars are determined.
