[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] damanrico:
My dad's galaxy s2 seems to drain pretty fast. When hardly using the phone (screen time of less than 20 minutes) the phone dies after being idle for a maximum of 13 hours.

When using GSam Battery Monitor to see what is draining the battery, everything seems normal expect for 'Kernel'. 'Kernel' uses 40% up to 85% of battery out of everything running on the phone. When the phone has been on for 10+ hours 'Kernel' is using more than 2 hour cpu time.

When looking at BetterBatteryStats nothing strange shows.

When looking at Cpu Spy the phone deep sleeps a lot (60-80%) and 200 Mhz being the most used frequency after deep sleep (15-35%).

Pretty much everything seems to be fine, no apps draining the phone as far as I can see. No sync stuff draining the phone.

The only thing I noticed is that 'android system' is using the accelerometer and gyroscope for quite some time (it seems the accelerometer is always in use, the gyroscope can be in use for 30min-2 hours depending on how long the phone has been on).

For me it's not clear why 'Kernel' is using that much bettery. Looking at my HTC One X for example it almost never uses more than 9% battery (out of 100% which includes everything, radio, apps, wifi, etc). On my HTC One X 'Kernel' also almost never uses more than 25min cpu time even when the phone has been on for 13+ hours. It sounds to me that the kernel shouldn't drain the battery that much, especially when the phone is deep sleeping a lot.

I'm running CM9 RC2 (been using the CM9 nightlies before RC2, same issues). Tried other roms like NeatLite and NeatFull. Tried stock kernels from those roms, and tried other kernels as well. Same issue.

Any help is very appreciated. Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evaworld:
ok it isn't normal that the phone die after 13hours while sleeping, however the only app that will tell you every thing about the battery drain issue will be better battery status , try it and provide us with log, you will see about each app, and know if there is any app missbehaving, but if every works as expected , i think it will be abattery issue, change it and try,

btw: with cm9 you can't use stock kernels, use aosp/aokp kerenls, stock kernels only with samsung based roms
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] damanrico:
I meant stock kernel as in the stock cm9 kernel.

I do think GSam Battery Monitor is a decent app for a global overview of what has been using the battery. When it says the kernel has been using the battery (by using a lot of cpu time), I do believe that's true. Especially since other phones in my household that aren't draining show the kernel is hardly using cpu time.

Here's a log file from BBS. Nothing strange to me, but maybe I'm looking at it wrong. See the attachment for the BBS log.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Disgustipated:
Bump, same issue. Accelerometer is also on for multiple hours. Battery drains too fast, noghing is amiss in BBS or Gsam.

Can't wait for JB :D:good::good:
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
I am doubtful that how much smoothly JB will run on our phone without kernel 3.x. Because JB has 60 fps which makes it faster & snappier but without kernel 3.x its not possible.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] zerocool420:
H/W acc should work

i think it will work without kernel 3.x, same as working in galaxy s i9000 with CM10. H/W acc also working in galaxy s i9000, i hope same will work for our phone galaxy sl i9003.

as many samsung and sony phones are working with ICS and JB on kernel 2.6.xx.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
buddy sony developers have backported nearly everything from kernel 3.x to kernel 2.6.xx. And galaxy i9000 has stable kernel 3.x thats why it has smooth h/w acceleration.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] TheDarkLord1997:
I believe instead of being pessimistic we should be optimistic....

Anyway Im desperately waiting for CM10..!!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] bobby_loveing:
project butter is the main feature,but we might be missing it till we get kernel 3.x:fingers-crossed:
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] coolpix90:
i think he is just realistic...we need 3.x for jelly bean ( just like for ics ) =)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] zerocool420:
if sony can,then why we can't

if sony devices can run ICS and JB on kernel 2.6.xx, then why can't our phone????
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] bobby_loveing:
the devices working great with 2.6.x.x ,they dont need hardware codecs and so much **** to run smooth ics.. probably our chipset needs kernel 3.x to run ics smoothly. :(
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Skander1998:
Vishal is too negative lately :)

The kernel just makes it "easier", it doesn't make it "possible" or "not possible".
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] FeelLikeASir:
The only differences in Jelly Bean from ICS are:

1) A modified CPU Governor that responds with touch input

2) Triple Buffering

3) Improved Vsync

Most of these mods are at kernel level but isn't that hard to port to ICS, or even GB 2.3.6. Look at the Galaxy W forum, they had managed to backport Triple Buffering and VSync to one of their Gingerbread 2.3.6 Roms back in March. Check it here.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
I am not sounding negative buddy :) We all have to understand that comparing our phone with other phones having complete different platform would be really a big mistake. Most of the sony phones have qualcomm chips which dont need kernel 3.x to smoothly run ICS. Without kernel 3.x they can backport most of the features to kernel 2.6.x which helps them to run ICS. But in our case omap 3630 has screwed everything. It needs specifically kernel 3.x to run ICS. Dhiru has already tried backporting but he also gave up because he came to know its screwing whole kernel stability.

So if we have to blame then we should not blame to samsung only but to omap 3630 TI platform also.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] bscraze:
No vishal ever since you got that title of yours, you've been more negative sad to say. I hope you can stop being so pessimistic and look on the bright side buddy, from what I can infer you absolute need video recording, so just wait patiently, till then being negative is of no help.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] loneagl:
+1 .vishal no offense but i have seen many of your posts n u do tend to look on the negative side of things.cheer up dude our phone is not as bad as u imagine.the only problem is a dearth of devs as our phone is not so well known

As regards to video recording, it partially works on cm9 alpha 10 n dhiru has assured it will get it working soon.n Cm10 is due for release!!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] FeelLikeASir:
All's not lost

I wouldn't agree with that...Qualcomm is proprietary, they don't have open source drivers, but they do release their source code because there is a big audience. OMAP is actually an easier platform to work with, we have so much information to work with, such as omappedia.org or omapzoom.org. If you look at Bam's github, you'll see that some of the mods he uses are from the omapzoom mailing lists. Its not that our platform is harder to work with, its just that we don't have lots of developers working on this phone since it was only released in a few countries. If anything, Qualcomm, Nvidia and Exynos are harder platforms to develop on since they are closed source, that is why codeworkx is working more on I9100G than I9100 (OMAP vs Exynos). Cheer up, as there are other phones on XDA with a stable CM on our 3630/PowerVR 530 SoC using kernels from Gingerbread or as far back as Froyo like the Motorola Defy with an Official Cyanogenmod. This hints that a stable CM is possible on our device.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
Sorry guys. If I look like -ve personality. I really never want to become pessimistic. Actually other phone's development makes me really annoy. Till today (nearly after 1.5 yrs from release of our phone) everytime we have suffered alot. Incomplete cm7, miui, cm9, no voodoo, no dual boot, unstable low freq 120 mhz, 200 mhz & many other things etc all indicates that we are not getting a single complete aosp rom having good stability & good kernel features. I am not at all blaming developers here. I am frustrated because this phone is so complecated for implementation of kernel & other mods. You ask aditya, doomlord etc kernel developers. They have also mentioned same thing that if u do a single change & booooo....kernel wont boot at all. Codeworkx also tried alot to get kernel 3.x booting with UART but no success. As compare to our phone other phones are much easier to mod at kernel level. My point is that from development point of view our phone is a mess. Samsung + TI OMAP chip is really a worst combination. Keeping positive hopes is one thing but relying on positive hopes for a long time when world around us changing very fast with latest mods & updates is a different thing. And most imp thing that if any of us still get a chance to replace our phone with similar price phone having very good development like stable aosp roms with good kernels then I am damn sure that 70% of us will happily replace their phone. Also if ur frnd asked u that if he has 18000 Rs in hand & want to buy a good phone for daily use & development wise also then u will definitely not suggest this phone. Our phone has really good specifications but TI platform & samsung has screwed this like hell.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] luiseteyo:
Do u know what does "Legacy & Low Activity Devices" mean? We are the ass of android 4.X
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] loneagl:
What u all say is correct, but according to me satisfaction varies at individual level .take my eg-

These are the problem in current cm9-

1.Wi-Fi tethering- i live in hostel in rural area-no Wi-Fi no problem

2.video recording- hardly ever use

3.No YouTube hd playback- where i live i have 2g n lucky if the mobile xda site opens.YouTube not even in my reach.

So basically i can live with cm9 alpha ten for the rest of my phone days.i am happy with my cm9 as it is now.

All other things like dual boot n voodoo sound are personal preferences n i for one don't care about it.

I think we should b satisfied by what our devs give instead of moaning:)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] samisax:
Fellas,

You're all nagging that vishal up there is stating some facts while you all are perceiving these facts as some sort of moaning. Vishal isn't moaning, he's telling you all what the facts are.

If the bugs in some ROM don't affect you, it doesn't mean they don't exist and affect other people. All our ICS ROMs so far have major bugs. These issues aren't simple and tolerable. You wouldn't buy a phone with ICS in the state that we have. The devs are on the right track and with the right mentality. Any ROM, to be considered stable and viable should be at least as good as stock in terms of stability and functionality.

Video recording doesn't work. That is a FACT. That is a problem. That's not to say that it will always be a problem, but we all need to accept the fact that there are some obstacles that a handful of devs are working on brilliantly. Hillbeast is doing slow but sure progress on the new kernel, which will allow the other devs of this forum, such as dhiru, alfrix, and I don't know who else (sorry if I forgot anyone of the devs) to work on porting ICS and/or JB to the i9003. In the meantime, these same devs have given us all a great version of ICS with a few bugs that don't get in the way of most user, but they DO exist and DO affect some people who choose not to use this ROM daily.

I love the fact that Android has the option to do WIFI tethering, but I have done the most to live without it for the past couple of months since I love ICS's interface and I really like using Chrome.

Now, please stop criticizing people for stating the TRUE AND OBVIOUS FACTS. Without people like vishal pointing out what we need, we'll be stuck with alpha 10 forever. Personally, I'm not satisfied with staying at this stage. I cannot sell my phone with CM9 on it. It just doesn't work perfectly yet. The devs have too much skill and talent to give up now.

Finally, let's stick to the thread's topic: CyanogenMod10

Cheers.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
I am totally agree with u. But if we think in this way then question will arise why we need such high specification phone if we its features are not useful to us...??? Development has to be done in such a way that it should be useful to all of us & not as per induvidual preference. Voodoo sound, dual boot kernel are just example that I have given to u compare with other phones. If u observe carefully then u will observe that samsung has rarely used opam 3630 chip.

I am not saying that development is not at all possible for our phone. I am just saying that development is very slow & complicated for our phone as compare to other famous phones which results in loosing interest in our phone.

---------- Post added at 12:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:35 AM ----------

Ya exactly this what I wanted to tell u all people. I am with this forum since i9003 even doesnt have a saperate forum. That time we were under i9000. But later we come under Legacy & Low Activity Devices which shows that development is very slow. I really appreciate developers who are really working hard on resolving bugs related to CM9. And I will appreciate in future also if they before proceeding to cm10 sort out major bugs related cm9 like video recording. And I am really glad because instead of waiting for kernel 3.x dhiru has started to work on most annoying bug i.e. video recording. We have very few developers. So if we just run behind new version of CM roms leaving behind same bugs in all roms then in our whole lifetime we will not get a stable aosp rom. I really want to congratulate to dhiru bacause he has decided to first solve bugs related to cm9 & then & only then proceed to cm10. Many people just revert back to stock rom only because its great battery life & all features working on it.

We should not be satisfy at all with current development. Because once it happens then we will get stuck there & we will not proceed to get more stabilty by removing more & more bugs. Getting satisfy means that it indirectly indicates that we have accepted development limitation which should not be happen. Instead of this we should frankly accept the facts so that working on bugs become more useful & helpful to us.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] santoshsadani009:
Ok guys, enough of these talks on whether we should be optimistic or pessimistic. Everyone is right because everyone has different opinion. But instead of calling anyone right or wrong, shouldn't we just celebrate that our device is getting CM10?

Personally I am happy by seeing this -

EVERY. SINGLE. PHONE. that saw CM10 port also saw many major breaks like camera, sound, wifi, etc. Don't know if the bugs are fixed as of now. But for our device, its an amazing feat that only one problem emerged in partition space (not a biggie i think, knowing how dhiru works and how talented he is).

Cheers.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] iAmBalvinder:
Kudos to dhiru( and of course other devs ) :)

System space will surely be solved by removing some software(not bloatware) and giving those software or mods as separate flashable zips.

I'm sure the system 337 mb will be optimised considering the best usage for everybody.

I'm sure this would already be in the mind of devs, or if any other way has to be taken to achieve the cm10 success.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Skander1998:
"Facts", no they're not facts.

"Major bugs", well video recording is getting fixed ATM, (currently half working), and video playback is almost perfect too, in what kernel are we? 2.6.X

So really, it's not going to be stuck at alpha 10.

When video recording get's fixed, we will only have *some* stability issues to fix (probably in beta) and WIFI/Hardware acceleration.

But do we NEED kernel 3.x? no.

Is dhiru waiting for kernel 3.x? yes.

Why? because it makes things much easier and less painful.

Back to vishal now, i am not trying to be offensive to anyone or anything but progress is being made, so moaning every 5 minutes isn't helping.

And, like sam said, let's get back to CM10 discussion instead of fighting..
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] nitinvaid:
Good to see that sl will get cm10

JB is great rom I am using it on my s2 its really fast in its 1st experimental build
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] ganeshbiyer:
1. Vishal You, me and many of us on the I9003 forums are not developers. But we do our bit indirectly. We are totally at the discretion of the Developers and they in turn on the handset and their expertise.

2. We should take a look around the XDA forums and see how long it took to get every thing working on a similar device.

3. We ask for all too much, when we very well know that the Developers have their personal agendas too and most of them are working on multiple devices. Patience is what we must have, or else sell this device and find a device that has a complete AOSP working, buy it. (I am going to ... very soon, will still have I9003, though). On the hindsight Defy seems to a better device than I9003 with similar specs.

4. Have you seen any developer who has left I9003 forum, ever return back.

5. Development is never a easy job, and just by giving an handset to a developer does not give us the right to hassle him/her. (Not intended for you).

But again, we must all remain positive, refrain from making unnecessary comments and remarks on the dev posts.

I have seen guys do it, just to be seen, to increase the post counts. I don't think it is right. I never do that, and I have seen on XDA in many other forums, the decorum being maintained. If one cannot help development, at least he should not hinder it either. :fingers-crossed:
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] iAmBalvinder:
If it pleases all, can we refrain our discussion over cm10(agreed omap ti devices are difficult to handle/develop, if you want a discussion, we can have a new thread in general section over it).

Coming back.

As dhiru said, the space in /system is low, so porting is getting difficult.

Fyi, it would be surely possible soon. For galaxy s i9000, there's a slim bean(jb) functional Rom by krarvind just 54-56mb. It takes up less space in /system too.

http://www.slimroms.com

(Noob alert: don't flash this Rom, it's not for gt-i9003)

Hope to see something similar soon.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] chung1213:
Man, i9000 have Samsung kernel sources and is more well known international, that's why they have stable 3.x kernel that fast. But I'm sure Hillbeast and Dhiru will succeed in building the 3.x kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
If our device will get kernel 3.x kernel then I will be the person who will be most happiest person on the earth. May be my disappointment is because I love my phone alot. When other samsung devices gets me more stable ICS with help of kernel 3.x then it makes me really jealous. I know we cant blame anyone because there is no one's fault here. If we would have got lots of developers then we would achieved really faster development. But we have to accept the situation & we have to work hard on getting things to be done.

My moanings are only because like all u guys I want my galaxy SL should most of the good mods, roms to be working on it. Sorry guys if I look offensive. Sorry for that :)
