[Nexus S Android Development] paino85:
i have a big problem with battery drain on 3.0 and 3.1. Until 2.9 rom battery life was great, but in 3.1 a battery cycle is about 13-15h, with only 1-1.5 hour of display on.

I did a very clean install (wipe data, wipe cache, format system, format cache, format sdcard, format data, format boot, wipe davlik cache), i installed all in one packet for gapps, and then just 4 apps (whatsapp, nova launcher+prime, swiftkey3).

I came back on 2.9, i hope it will be fix, because slim rom is an awesome rom! byeee
[Nexus S Android Development] tchaari:
In your case, I think disabling Google Now will make your battery last more. Whatsapp can also eat battery if it is always connected...

When I set wifi sleep policy to "never", I also gain a considerable amount of battery when the phone is in sleep state.
[Nexus S Android Development] paino85:
google now was disabled and whatsapp never gave a problem... if whatsapp is the problem there is a problem between WA and 3.1, because with 2.9 no drain

[Nexus S Android Development] xis123:
I have upgraded from 2.6 to all the revisions since then but still have found myself going back to 2.6 due to the amazing battery life, with 3.0 I only got 1d 15h and around 2h 20m screentime, whereas 2.6 I got almost 3 days and 3h 20m screentime on a single full charge.

Heading back to 2.6 with marmite 7.2 non-CM to see if this still holds true.
[Nexus S Android Development] DJBhardwaj:
Try shifting your governor to conservative :good:

Yeah, maybe you should post it in the kernel thread :)
[Nexus S Android Development] tweeny80:
I've come to understand it's not cool to ask developers ETAs of their ROM; Slim website confirms JB 4.2 is under construction.

I am not interested, nor want to know, the ETA of such a thing. I ask that all fellow Slimmers join me in NOT wanting to know said ETA.

@Tchaari please don't give ANY information pertaining to the Slim 4.2 timeline, we are very patient and would hate our anticipation to be disrupted by factual data. If however the pressure is getting to you and you need a confidant, my PM channel is there if you need it :)

Thanks for your support

I can't restore my apps... I came from PARANOID ANDROID ROM, I had this one before. I flashed 3.1 and since I backup up everything in TitaniumBackup the first thing I do is restore apps and system data. When after this, I restart, the phone always bootloops... Why? Can't I restore my apps and data? Could anyone give me some lights on this? Its annoying me
[Nexus S Android Development] metalmoot:
May be because there is a lot of differences between paranoid and slimbean, two tweaked roms which are absolutely different

[Nexus S Android Development] punpanonicus:
I know that, of course, but there's no way to restore at least the apps? and wi-fi passwords and such basic data? I've tried restoring only the ones that are green in the titaniumbackup menu, but with no success... thanks for the answer btw

Anyone having trouble using GPS with sygic? Google navigation works fine, with sygic,I can't even get a lock.
[Nexus S Android Development] deltatux:
I just noticed that the kernel that was bundled with Slim Bean doesn't come with zRAM functionality. Is there a reason why this is missing from the kernel?

The toggle is there in the ROM tweaker for enabling zRAM, but the kernel doesn't actually support it since the device block doesn't exist:

cat /sys/block/zram0/disksize
/system/bin/sh: cat: /sys/block/zram0/disksize: No such file or directory

If it was properly supported by the kernel, when I enable zRAM, the block device should be there but it isn't. When I do a directory listing of /sys/block, there's no zram block devices...

Cheers,

deltatux

I am using 3.1 upgraded from 3.0 clean wipe with the stock kernal.

Make sure your Sygic is updated, there were a bunch of updates about a month ago.

I feel a little noob. I used slim rom 3.0 then changed to something else, but now I'm trying 3.1. And I can't seem to find the lockscreen settings, such as calendar, weather and the lockscreen ring shortcuts. It doesn't appear to be in ASS > Interface > Lock screen

[Nexus S Android Development] :
For me, jellybean > ics > gb

I'm sure that the Nexus S can handle 4.2 just fine, as it handled 4.1.2 perfectly well. It's just going to be a little more work for the ROM devs.

There's always optimisations happening in the code, as well as new features adding bloat. But for the most part you can turn the bloat off, which is how I personally prefer things.

Google has abandoned Gmail's Exchange Active sync. This is not the email app. What that means is that people can't use Active sync on Windows with Gmail. So, unless you set your Gmail account in the Email app, it has nothing to do with it.
