I'm...I'll try the deadline scheduler! ;)

What about testing the undervolt? How did you do that so to be sure that that was good without any system crash?

Did you used some benchmarking of what?

So stock governor and stock scheduler right? No undervolt or whatever right?

Heh..would like to know that too...:)

unable to find location. is this a problem with the rom??? any fix on this gps issue????
[Galaxy S III Android Development] PIRATA!:
Great! Downloading now...;)

But do I have only to install/flash over without any wipe cache/dalvik cache??

Uhm...what is the navigator app (first and second screenshot) and the gps app you show in the third screenshot of your post up here?

What are they?? Really interesting....

Ps: did you had to uncheck the "Use wireless networks" checkbox for using the gps?

Mine works, but I have only tried with that checkbox unchecked...

Like the topic says, I have a question about the accessories colors from the s3.

Are the accessories more designed fore the blue or for the white s3?

I want to buy a s3 but I don't know which color would be better for the accessories so I hope you guys can help me!

Written in bad english with my HTC Desire S
[Galaxy S III Accessories] kms108:
To match the colours, it's really upto you how you think of it. I actually have the blue and i find it quite hard to find a perfect match with most lite colours cases, with blue it mostly grey, black, silver, brown, blue and similar dark colours, whiles the white S3 can match with many lite and dark colours.

I'll be getting a white S3 soon, so i'll have two.

already have about 9 cases, mostly dark and transparent colours.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] il buono:
As the person above stated, a white S3 will basically go with anything while certain colors look good for the blue. Don't let that be a deciding factor though since there are a lot of good looking cases that match the blue s3. I roll with a blue s3 cause it looks good.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] htcsnap93:
What I do notice is that 99% of all accesoires are displayed with the white version. I have the blue one and sometimes it is hard to think if it matches the case. Nonetheless the blue color is very nice.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] kms108:
yeh, all adverts, photo's and reviews all use the white unit.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] txkorm:
Simple, as stated above, white goes with everything, blue doesn't. I've had blue phones in the past and won't do it again. Regardless, the blue is still a good looking phone.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Atlas7:
Is it dangerous if my TF201 is all the time on CHARGER???

And it is dangerous for my battery life?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pileot:
I cant suggest it. Although Lithium Ion batteries dont suffer the "memory effect" that alkalines did they HATE not being used. If you have your prime powered up all the time it will lose its capacity to hold a charge faster than normal.

Best practice is if you are going to be plugged in most of the time unplug it once every couple weeks and just let it cycle to the point where it shuts off then plug it in again and let it fully charge.

Do some research on battery types and care, people dont realize that different batteries want to be treated in different ways. Its unfortunate that there is not much education for the general public about how to care for your device once you get it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tshoulihane:
There is a non-trivial risk of a fault causing a fire - not worth worrying about, but it is another reason to not leave charging 24/7.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DLS711:
Ok... So first I did search the forum for this problem.. I didn't find anything. So here goes..

My Japanese Galaxy S2 WiMax ( AU ) is stock and crashes at least 5-10 times a day. I don't use AU's internet service, I have a pocket WiFi.

I have uninstalled all of my 3rd party apps except Go Launcher. At one time I had it rooted (No custom ROM), but I thought that might be the problem so I did a new install at the AU shop. Still no luck... crash crash crash... what a pain in the butt.

I'm sure it is a Bloat Ware problem from AU.

Can anyone recommend a ROM that will work with this phone?

Or!

Can anyone tell me how to fix this problem so I can root my phone again?

Any help or advice would be appreciated
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DLS711:
Found the problem

The problem is that the phone has two stock launchers installed.

Installing go launcher is what made it crash so often.

This is another reason for rooting your phone...:p

I was going to delete this thread but I'm going to leave it just in case it helps someone else.

Hello :)

I have downoaded "DooMLoRD_v4_ROOT-zergRush-busybox-su" from

1. Installed adb drivers

2. Enabled usb debugging

3. Enabled installing applications from unknown sources

4. Increased screen timeout

5. Plugged in the phone to my pc with an usb cable.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dSayonarab:
Try tethering with Bluetooth instead of through WiFi? Not a fix, but it's a simple workaround.

I stopped using my Xperia S as a WiFi hotspot and just tether with Bluetooth. It's quicker (for me), I'm not broadcasting an SSID, and I don't have to worry about Chrome's preloading sucking up all my data because it's set to WiFi Only.

On my Xperia S it's Settings > Wireless & Networks > More... > Tethering & portable hotspot.

Pair the two devices, enable Bluetooth tethering under "Tethering & portable hotspot", then connect from the Nexus 7 to the Note. You'll know you've done it right if the network in the Notifications on the Nexus 7 says "Bluetooth Tethered".

How To

How to report a bug

Reporting this or that is not working does not help. This is a development thread and I expect a minimum set of information:

- What version are you using

- What behavior did you expect

- What behavior did you get

- How to reproduce the problem

- a Log

You can report bugs in this thread or on github (see post #1 for links)

How to request a feature

Simply post what you would like to have. If others (and I) like the idea it will be implemented (as long as possible)

FAQ

Q: Why would I need an app to control my Wifi state?

A: If you are happy with your settings and your battery life you don't need it

Q: How can I find out if Wifi is draining my battery?

A: Use Better Battery Stats

Q: But Wifi consumes less power than 3G, Why would I want to turn Wifi off?

A: Theoretically true but... Many apps behave differently when Wifi is on, like e.g. Dropbox or Google+ upload features. Besides that the famous wlan_rx kernel wakelocks show that incoming traffic can wake up your phone, causing a lot of overhead. And finally the Wifi sleep policy is not optimal for everyone (if working at all)

Q: Will this app stay free?

A: yes, free with ads but fully featured. There will be a donate version to support me but that version will only remove the ads

Q: Will this app be available on Google Play?

Yes, once out of beta. To be efficient a beta must be limited to a small user group. Besides, psoting feedback in the rating on Google Play is a) lame and b) does not help the devs

Q: Is there a help?

A: No, this app should be self explaining so if you find something unclear please report it as a bug, I'll take care of it.

Q: Why does BWOF disable after a reboot?

A: Certain devices / Android versions seem to have a different handling of turning Wifi off when rebooting, making BWOF believe that Wifi was turned off by user. I have no way of finding out what devices are affected and how to fix this. A workaround is to not enable "Disable when user turns Wifi off".

Hi Chamonix,

Thank you for another useful creation. :thumbup:

Please can you advise what would happen if wifi is off but mobile data (use packet data) is enabled and an app woke up the device requiring network access? I guess what I am hinting at: will it be possible for this app to disable mobile data as well?

:o
[Android Apps and Games] Edwrib:
Awesome.

What you think a option to have WiFi_lock with the WiFi on? Many ppl have issues to transfer files via WiFi and speed go down if display turn off, with this added in you app we can control WiFi all in same place.

Ty.
[Android Apps and Games] chamonix:
Possible yes but this will never happen!

A) because this app manages wifi and

B) this would cause more drain than anything else as the app would cause partial wakelocks and maybe even wakeups

Hi Chamonix,

How should "Keep WiFi on during sleep" under advanced WiFi settings be set for this app?

[Android Apps and Games] Zer0w:
This should be on Play Store :victory:
[Android Apps and Games] chamonix:
It doesn't matter what the wifi sleep policy is. What you could check:

- is the service running

- one of the prefs 'screen on' or 'unlock' should be set

- does the event Log on the main screen of the app say something?

- if possible attach a logcat

I will for my side check if there are conditions where the service would not start

[Android Apps and Games] chamonix:
I have an Idea on how to detect partial Wakelocks held by apps as an alternative to bandwidth detection. This should give better results for streaming apps as those tend to buffer and so the bandwidth usage is not constant, preventing the current bandwidth detection to work properly (eg last.fm stops downloading once a song was buffered). It's a bit tricky to code but you can expect something experimental in 0.8 for that.
[Android Apps and Games] patsmike:
If you are able to do this, this app will be absolutely perfect. Sorry I keep saying this, I'm just too excited!
[Android Apps and Games] twe90kid:
Why not do a whitelist for the apps that stay connected if running int he background?
[Android Apps and Games] chamonix:
Because "running" is not a state on Android and because I don't want WifiOnOff to stop turning off wifi if last.fm is e.g. paused. Besides I don't like the idea of the user editing too much, the app should have the "intelligence" to do stuff for him

Testing Wakelocks detection. It will require root
[Android Apps and Games] yhrn:
Hi and apologies for bumping my previous post but the assumptions that I made there are the basis for me believing that the SSID whitelist feature not working properly.

What I did was to configure BWON as shown in the screenshots below (the SSID whitelist only contains my home network SSID) and reboot the phone.

After reboot I confirmed that wifi was connected to my home network, turned off the screen and waited for a bit more than 30 seconds (the turn off timeout configured in BWON) and turned on the screen again. The behaviour I expected was that wifi should still be on but it was not. Instead it was turned on by BWON shortly afterwards. Here is a logcat taken after this was observed https://www.dropbox.com/s/zconveu4j3dgyyv/logcat_20120908-1401.txt.

Sorry if I got this all wrong.

Hey chamonix

I was wondering if you noticed that when wifi switches off while phone is sleeping, and after waking the device up and reconnecting to wifi the wifi strength indicator gets buggy and doesn't show the strength while using CM9?

Edit: seems like a cm9 theme issue :)

Stock cm9 theme doesn't have any issue
[Android Apps and Games] chamonix:
Indeed the wakelock detection finds a wakelock to be present every 30 seconds:

I noticed the log messages were eroneous but the behavior is "as designed". The wakelock may be:

In the log I see a lot of "STATUSBAR-BatteryController" suggesting that indeed your phone is not sleeping between the alarms.

I will do some more testing and will fix the number of times the wakelock detection happens (and maybe the interval).

I'd also like to hear from other users who have tested wakelocks
