[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
Thanks man... but there are deeper issues going on... for some reason I can't get the boot.img to flash properly...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Manumission:
I had a devil of a time flashing the boot.img, too, though I suppose our situations are rather different (I'm on a Mac, using Heimdall command-line). I did finally get it flashed last night, though - I had to downgrade to version 1.3.1 and mess around with various USB ports to get it going.

Anyway, I'm using the boot.img and the bcm4329.ko module according to eollie's/erikmm's instructions, along with Erik's port of SlimROM. So far so good - 6 hours, at 62%, with 1h 22m of screen time, Wifi continually on and, because I'm in a basement today, erratic phone signal. I'll update if there is a reason to later.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
Do thomas a good solid and check out his kernel thread in the dev section here.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1820172

I just unzipped the kernel from the gummy zip. He has specific instructions on how to properly get it installed and let you benefit from all the tweaks.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Manumission:
Yeah, I saw that. Don't have time for that right now, but may get around to it later tonight. Already thanked him several times, though!
[General Questions and Answers] Joe momma:
Is there a way to avoid paying that god awful data plan when using a android smart phone? I recently bought a HTC Inspire 4G to use as a second phone but AT&T wants to double charge me on data. I already have data on my first phone I don't want it on my second phone. What can I do?
[General Questions and Answers] gagdude:
Unfortunately, AT&T forces a data plan onto any smartphone. They just want money.

T-Mobile does not force a data plan if you swap in an activated SIM, so that is a choice if you're willing to give up the better service.

[8 OCT 2012] [RoM] X POWER [XXDLIB] 4.0.0 -XL BATTERY & "UNPRECEDENTED" SMOOTH

Finally X Power is here, the ROM is all about battery and smoothness, not hottest mods, beta releases etc.​

This ROM is stock like, no theaming. just small mods. I'll always try to get out the best battery life with phone running smooth as silk.

I'll will not be first to release new roms as battery optimize & smoothness takes a bit of time. ​

PS. PICTURE IS THEMED. ROM HAS STOCK LOOK WITH BLUE ICONS IN STATUSBAR

I JUST MUST SAY -"I HAVE NOT SEEN ANY ROM AS SMOOTH AS THIS YET :laugh: :fingers-crossed:

try it and see, and as battery life is super to, this is my daily driver. ​

[Galaxy S III Android Development] box4m:
Kinda impossible to download it, the url doesnt work :/
[Galaxy S III Android Development] L1qu1d:
Yeah Same, I'm going to move to the Revolution because I really need to change the current rom I'm using. Foxhound 1.4.3. Great Performance, but KILLS my battery, on a 10H standby I was left with 5% battery.

Will probably move back to foxhound if they sort the battery life issue, although I do understand it's a performance rom.:)

I was really looking forward to trying this X power. Hopefully some1 can compare this and HD revolution and give us feedback comparison!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] smaberg:
Mine works perfect. If some one could download and upload to a mirror I'll be grateful.

Great to see you back on the scene smaberg, I might just have to theme your rom exclusively like I did back in the sgs2 days.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andlar123:
Does this kernel work well with MTP on Mac, and do I flash the full boot.img or flash a zimage of the kernel? The reason why I ask is if I flash boot.img will I lose any tweaks on the ramdisk.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] jothi2lingam:
init.d rom is own by rom , for ramdisk..kernel is the winner...because ramdisk is belong to kernel...so just flash it and see what happen to rom ramdisk tweak (Send by Harunjo) MTP should works in mac because Harunjo already fix the issues in past few releases
[Galaxy S III Android Development] smaberg:
What do you guys and girls want mostly?

A service pack that increases the battery life even more?

Or

A new release based on the leaked JB?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Sandrioni:
I'd go for battery life. Wait until JB is final.

Battery life is what makes your rom special!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] noris08:
I too would go for better battery and wait for a final jb release.

Cheers
[Galaxy S III Android Development] jothi2lingam:
Battery life & service pack let it be in aroma installer..There will easy to users to install their fav app and if can means add customize theme (LG,Motomoto,Jellybean & etc)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andlar123:
Hi, is the new kernel that you're using with the ROM working well with MTP on Mac? This feature is very officially important for me. With Siyah it was always a problem. So just for this I had to go back to Wanamlite. Otherwise I loved your ROM for the smoothness and battery. Please confirm.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] :
increases the battery life
[Galaxy S III Android Development] eMiL112:
I prefer battery life until JB is officially issued. I tried the leaked JB version and felt a bit laggy
[Galaxy S III Android Development] smaberg:
From now and forward I'll be using GalaXsih kernel exclusive... So please flash latest to make sure battery life is top notch
[Galaxy S III Android Development] jothi2lingam:

[Galaxy S III Android Development] smaberg:
well, yes but only if phone is an IPHONE :laugh:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] smaberg:
been running and testing SP3 and for notice, i WILL REMOVE DSP manager.

SO SP3 will have

Louder earpiece volume when in call (if you want, you can always use vol. down otherwise)

louder headset

louder headphones

louder AUX when connected to stereo :eek:

even better battery life :cowboy:

by optimizing the codes for battery life, phone will also be snappier :D

newest kernel GalaXsih

MODEM will be LG8 or JB's LH4, need help to descide :confused: LH4 a little more battery drain, better signal (at least here)

some more optimization of jar files smali code

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

to earlier poster, i will not make an aroma installer yet, as to many options will conflict with the optimization for batterylife

so to get best battery life i must do the apple thing "force you all to mine contempt" :laugh:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] jothi2lingam:
Thanks for your afford smaberg...Anyway I think LG8 will better because most users will looking for battery life...When you will upload SP3 dude;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andlar123:
If you remove DSP manager won't beats audio be also removed with it. Instead why don't you push the volume mod tweak. I've installed this and the volume levels are good. I'm also not sure if bravia is working although the script is in build.prop. I've also switched to Chainfire CWM instead of touch. You can consider using this recovery in SP3.

---------- Post added at 05:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:45 PM ----------

Also my experience with LG8 is excellent and LH4 is still experimental?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andreheitor:

[Galaxy S III Android Development] sstanton86:

[Galaxy S III Android Development] noris08:

Battery life for me, I am running 4.1.1 leaked ROM, its a little buggy but is my daily driver. Look forward to the official release and then to mod with your battery friendly version of JB :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] smaberg:
NO SP3.

Did a rerelease instead with all SP built in and also SP3.

also cleaned up code and system, much smoother and more battery friendly now.

That's awesome. I can't wait anymore :D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andreheitor:

Here is attached remove sms log...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] smaberg:
For those who can't wait...

http://smaberg.eu/2.5.0.zip

PS. Awesome beats won't work for those upgrading from earlier versions of X Power, as I removed the app.

I will provide a cwm script when official that cleans the awesome beats.

Modem is LH1.

Kernel is GalaXsih

Recovery is clock work touch 6.0.12

Also on demand by many, included HyperX camera mod 1.45 again.

Yep, already. Before and even after flashing. Do you have such problem with your device using version 2.5? Is there any incompabilities with Go SMS :confused:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] holydire:
well this much more hassle to be searching for the toggle (if its not one of the first 5) . why not add an option to keep the slider, keep in mind that it was added because of the removed top notification bar slide option.

id really like to have it back if possible.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] maximoz:
Haven't downloaded 2.5.0 yet. But this happened once before with my default sms when my csc was unknown.

You need to type *#272*IMEI# and see if any csc is selected.

If yes, then hopefully someone can help further on this ...

If it's unknown then you will need to select one BUT this will wipe the phone including the internal SD card so please backup first.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] eMiL112:
The problem seems gone now. I just disabled the notification of the stock SMS then tried to send another sms to my phone and It's ok now.

Anyhow thank you very much for your help, maximoz :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] smaberg:
Hmm. Did you even open the app quick setting? Don't think you did...

Third choice WIDGET BUTTON ORDER.

I use this as its easier and more convenient to use.

Also in WIDGETS BUTTONS choice at the bottom, you can choose how the brightness button should react to presses

As I said in my posts, I made this Rom the way I LIKE IT, to bad for you off you don't.

I can't follow every wish, then we would not have a single X Power build.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] holydire:
i am well aware of this option, no need to hold me for an idiot.

i just thought that "keeping more to stock" doesn't involve removing perhaps the most helpful change made by samsung itself

Hey guys

Just a couple of quick questions

1. For best battery life do I just flash ROM and use or use the GlalaxSih kernel?

2. Do I need to install the service packs for 2.5?

3. I live on the farm...and I need solid battery life as many times I'm too far out and power points are not available. I was using Criselkos Rom and was quite impressed..This Rom caught my attention due to XL battery. Anyone coming from Criselko or Wannam let me know how battery life is compared to those?

4. Circle or percentage battery...where can I find? I would like to see percentage please

Thank you

4.You can enable percentage in setting display.

Last NOOB question...will changing my launcher effect my phone and battery life in any way?

I like the smoothness of the stock launcher , but cant scroll my wallpapers etc..

If the answer is yes, what launcher do you guys recommend

Thanks
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andreheitor:
Hi... i did this procedure:

1) installed version 2.0.0

2) installed sp1

3) installed sp2 (and full wipe)

4) installed OTA fix

5) installed version 2.5.0.

Now, OTA Updater is saying has the SP2 update.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] smaberg:
siyah will drain more.

i had/have great coop with gokhanmoral, but in this ROM when battery is nr:1 then i had to go with GalaXsih kernel.

smoothness won't be affected.

FOR THE OTA, can you check the last 3 lines in build.prop in /system/

as i don't got the problem.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] smaberg:
please only do step 5.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Pard0ned:
All any launcher will do is replace touchwizz. Battery life will not be affected.

I would personally recommend Apex launcher. Great themes, you can personalise it to your heart's content.

Too bad you didn't left the stock camera, nor let to download the stock app separately.

I'm very happy with v 2.0 and won't update it.

Thanks for your great work.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] samaxen:
@Smaberg I have noticed few bugs in your init.d Script. You are using Sqlite optimization script but there is no "sqlite3" binary in /system/xbin folder so the script doesn't executes.

You are using Harunjo's Kernel. In his latest version i.e. 3.9, any init.d scripts will not load unless they start with filename "11XXX".

Also getting battery drain. Considering the phone was idle for about 10-11hours( charged 100%, took out battery, replaced, charged again till 100%, flashed V2.5, and went to sleep without placing phone back on charge)

However I will give it 1 or2 charge cycles and let you know the outcome of it
