any ideas ?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] kizashi3:
is there any other way ?

please anyone ?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Gilbot:
Make sure ro.sf.lcd_density is changed to 213 in your build.prop

ro.sf.lcd_density=213​

Also add these lines to the end of your build.prop:

launcher.force_enable_rotation=true

qemu.hw.mainkeys=0​

Reboot. This works on the 7.7 :)
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] kizashi3:
sorry but is there a way to edit the build.prop probably ??

i'm using the ROM toolbox and i couldn't find "ro.sf.lcd_density " nor " launcher.force_enable_rotation" or "qemu.hw.mainkeys"

:(
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Gilbot:
Use Root Explorer and long press build.prop in the /system folder then choose 'open with' and select text editor (Make sure not to make a typo or you won't get past boot screen ;P ).

You'll have to add the lines at the end as they probably aren't in your build prop

Then use the overflow menu in the upper right and choose a save option. Reboot.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] kizashi3:
thank you .. you're awesome :good:

Not sure. You're using the exact layout as the nexus 7. You can probably change the DPI to a different supported number. Test it out, but backup stuff in case I guess :)

or maybe this web can help u to figure which dpi is suitable for ur tab :)

http://developer.android.com/guide/practices/screens_support.html
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] de3pkeeper:
Um...

The Galaxy Tab 8.9 3G P7300 has a default pixel density of ~170 ppi (pixels per inch).

Also, this AOSP Jelly Bean release has the Nexus 7 UI enabled by default and it degrades homescreen performance with choppiness and reduced widget space. The pull-down notification bar is also behaving improperly by not centering in landscape mode.

The more you increase the ppi setting, the larger UI elements will appear on the screen, and the lower you set the LCD density, the smaller ellements will be.

Two reasons one the usual not following the instructions and two many need to wipe the phone first clean stock rom then custom rom .

Note the ones that say they are following instructions often post back 40 posts later saying i forgot to do xxxx so double check the install instructions .

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] itsartjt:
I noticed an odd behavior with the EVO 4g LTE, when connected to wireless and on roaming or no 3g signal, it acts like there is no connection to things like Play store, etc. Things like Dropbox tend to work, ICS Browser, Facebook and other apps will time out and say no connection.

Almost as if the phone wants both connections to be "connected" , I have the old original EVO 4G, ( my pld phone that has no service, only wireless) it seems to work fine, only the LTE one is wonky when there is little or no #g connectivity even when connected to wireless.

Any thoughts?

[General Questions and Answers] GeekDrop:
So as I sit by my phone I notice that it often turns on the screen (dimmed) for a second or two, then shuts itself back off again (usually). Sometimes it'll wake itself up and stay dimmed until I manually press the power button to turn the screen off again. I'm assuming it's some app checking for data updates, especially since I have background data enabled, but I'm wondering what the best way of pinpointing which app(s) is/are the perp that is actually waking the screen?

If at all possible try on another PC.

It just sounds like a driver/port issue.

I've removed all my note drivers before and just used the adb drivers which work fine in download mode.

I've also run into issues (more recently) where unplugging the phone with Odin running and then plugging it back in worked but each system is going to have its own nuances.

So you are saying all these battery savers are making things worse?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] LoopDoGG79:
Here's mine with AOKP ICS Eugene CPU sleeper and TDJ kernel

Truth is battery life varies hugely, with usage and app setups.

Sent from the pink Unicorn from the Darkside. :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Vlad_z:
I am trying to show that with the given battery budget it's up to user how to spend it.

Knowing how stuff works (at least in general ) allow to plan actions.

Speaking about CPU sleeper - it loops in background (already not good), it's trying to put CPU1 offline regardless what kernel scheduler think about it meaning next moment kernel would wake up CPU1 back if needed, so in next 2 sec sleeper script would try to put it off again and so on and so on....

Do you really need those intensive background processes running? Like Google++ etc. - if answer is Yes then CPU script is counterproductive, it's fighting against your wishes, spending even more energy... if answer is No then you better make sure your phone is clean of such rough apps, so it would go to deep sleep on it's own...

Deep sleep is not exactly up to Samsung specs on this phone - 0.5% per hour - meaning 200 hours in standby with excellent signal and with 2200mA Anker battery... only in airplane mode T989 got 3/4mA. So, could sleeper scrip help in this situation? Ask the author. Because when I ask him he just congratulated myself and that's it.

Band aids are always less effective then the cure of the root problem. Band aids could/would produce side effects (like something stopped working).

If you don't need dual CPU power - get yourself a single core phone... or lower CPUs frequency. According to my tests decreasing CPU frequency by 15% will save you 25%.

If you don't want to flip airplane mode by yourself then get apps which will do it for you but there might be some other gotchas...

Just try to get to the bottom of the problem and avoid the idiocracy "when the plants crave for... you know what".
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Vlad_z:
Looks fine. 20% in 12 hours with light usage. Test idle overnight with and without CPU sleeper to see if this is placebo effect.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Vlad_z:
I just did some tests on endurance. 4 days with 1 hour of talk and 1 hour of screen time and still have 28% to go. Or previously I did 7:40 of screen time with 40% battery still to go...

Someone asked what is my settings, well here we go:

1. I don't use automatic sync anywhere. When I need something I just hit manual sync.

2. Most of the time I use fixed brightness about 20%. (sometimes I set more when I need it)

3. Observe system behavior periodically, especially when installing new app, using OS monitor or just simple terminal (top 10 command). Are there any processes running without any reason? If so, deal with them...

4. My "Screen On" CPU frequency range is limited to 1.3GHz. (usually I don't play games on a phone, I've got a tablet for it). This will cap max current and will save around 120mA.

5. "Screen Off" CPU is limited to 0.9GHz - for same reason, no need to use 1.5GHz CPU for background tasks.

6. If there is spotty 4G - better switch it Off. Sure this will delay reports on you going from your phone to Google servers but I don't care about it.

7. Use WiFi instead of 4G - it costs at least two times less for you battery.

8. Switch WiFi Off when non needed. Idle WiFi will not consume much more mAmps but will set internal connection status = DISCONNECTED which will prevent different processes wakening up and transmitting.

9. Overnight, I prefer use airplane mode... two reasons: I don't like to wake up due to some "wrong number" calls. Second, deep sleep mode is still consuming around 11mA and airplane mode is just 3mA. So, instead of 4% of charge per 8 hours my phone uses just 1%.

(FYI: Eugene told in other post that his best overnight idling was about 10%)

10.Last but not least by using dark background and reading white fonts on black screen can save another 50-70mA. Very handy if you like read a lot. That's how I've got 7:40 hours of screen time with 40% still left in battery.

When you look at your time and compare what you were running/doing - keep in mind that there will be about 80% of battery capacity available. (Fuel Gauge chip will show 0% when there is still 3.45V) Manufacturers rate batteries discharging them down to 3.3V.

If you want to post your results, please include at least screen time along with type of usage and other basic settings. Otherwise such posts would be useless in terms of objective comparison different ROMs and settings.

i got my telus refubrished phone few days ago, i am getting around 12 hours on factory settings, i didnt change them. i use the phone for calling emails and news.

is that normal, if not, could it be the battery
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Vlad_z:
Well, to say if your battery needs to be replaced you either have to test it on capacity tester or indirectly in your phone with some static (and well known load). Read the first post, choose benchmark/load, run it and then calculate your battery capacity approximation.

If your calculated capacity much less then 80% of rated one then probably you want to replace battery.

You may try to reset Fuel Gauge chip by removing full charged battery for several minutes from phone and try those tests again.

You can check for calibration errors by comparing voltage and what % Android reports.

100% - you should see 4.2 - 4.1V

50% - you should see 3.8-3.7V

1% - you should see around 3.45V

To answer on your other question "if this normal?" - one would need more information. Or you can analyze your usage pattern yourself based on metrics I provided at first post.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] monkeybuttons:
I went on a one week campout a few weeks ago. Put phone in airplane mode and unplugged around noon Monday, didn't plug it in again until around noon Saturday. Airplane mode the whole time, but I was also using Eugene's CPU Sleeper app and AOKP milestone 6 (July 15th release). Used phone for camera throughout the week, some very light reading and more than a few hours of gps on a long hike. Didn't think to take a screenshot though, so I can't back my claim. My battery was flirting with 0% by the time I plugged it in though, but that's still ~5 days. If I didn't use gps I could have easily gone much longer. Gps was the biggest battery killer.

Airplane mode is the best battery saver there is, but I like to be able to receive phone calls so I just let AOKP turn data off after about 10 minutes of screen off. Saves a lot of battery right there.
