13 hrs off charger, 2hrs 9min screen on, 60% battery left. And I had wifi on the entire time. I love this rom
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] haloeight:
So Media Scanner service wasn't showing at all for the past few hours, but I recalled reading something earlier where someone said the issue reappeared on boot. Rebooted and found it was back.

It seems as though it does run pretty heavily at boot (more so than prior ROMs, taking 6m:16s out of 13m up time) but then is not running continuously like it was before. Time seems to be holding steady at 6:16, whereas yesterday I found it going continuously for hours. So the earlier measures do seem to have reigned that in but post boot activity seems higher than prior ROMs.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] T.J. Bender:
I don't think the XDA app shows signatures. There's a link in my signature when you get back to a PC, or you can jump into the General section and it should be a couple pages in.

I'm with you on post-boot activity being higher than ICS ROMs, but I'm beginning to wonder if the MediaScanner wakelock is an "all or nothing" deal. I haven't seen it once, and I did several test reboots last night to try and spark it (or any other problems). I don't think Majick's been hit with one yet. I'm wondering if it's potentially traced back to a bad install. Good MD5, just a bad install for whatever reason. After my calibration run is done, I'll try a bunch of different ways (plugging into/out of a PC correctly and incorrectly, large media file transfers from PC to phone and vice versa, swapping external SD cards out, even trying different classes of external SDs) and see if I can't find a repeatable way to set it off.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] stoopendis:
Haloeight, it seems a lot has been written about this problem (see above posts) but because not all are affected by it, the devs seem reticent to tackle it. I don't know if they even acknowledge it as a problem. At this point I'm just going to shrug my shoulders and apply a bandage.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] T.J. Bender:
Confucius says: if one dozen users have problem, ROM does not work. If one user has problem, user does not work. I don't see anyone in this thread brushing it off (though I haven't read the master AOKP threads, just this one and R4IN's), and I'm hoping to track down the source of the problem. It sounds like some users are speculating that Autoplay on PCs is causing it, so that's where I'll be starting tomorrow when my calibration run goes.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] haloeight:
Checked MD5s on both installs and copied using a utility that checks on copy - no issues there. I was also wondering if something borked during the install which is why I tried sk8r's recovery this time.

Good news is that the MediaScanner wakelock has held steady at 6m:16, percentage time since boot diving down in BBS. So it does seem like for whatever reason it is especially uppity after boot.

Interesting point about PC connections being a possible cause. Haven't connected since flash, going to try now.

I know majick is very interested / appreciative of whatever details we can give him, devs need help in diagnosing problems as they can't test for all permutations on their own. In his thread r3ins sounded like he was a bit baffled by this too. So I'm trying to provide whatever findings I come across.

The only other thing that is bugging me about this ROM is the general difference in smoothness in UI - MW R2 supercharged was faultlessly fast, it may be that something else is going on in the background that is causing a less smooth experience. So I'm going to see if I can figure out the battery issue and smoothness, since that's what the ROM goes for I think there will be effort around it.

You asked earlier about what I did so the devs can consider

1. Searched for all .nomedia files using ES File Explorer & SD Maid as well as connecting to PC and searching - the different methods seem to find different things. Deleted any found. Also deleted any .db files under data/data/com.android.providers.media/databases

2. Deleted any orphaned directories with SD Maid or obvious ones from uninstalled apps in case they left something causing a problem.

3. Settings -> Apps -> All -> Delete data for the following

Download Manager

Downloads

DRM Protected Content Storage

Media Storage

Gallery

Google Services Framework

Any other media related apps - I don't have a music app installed

4. Froze in TiBu: not all related to media but I had unfrozen everything for testing earlier

5. Rebooted to recovery, wiped cache & Dalvik in Sk8r's recovery

6. Rebooted, let sit for 20 minutes while Media Scanner rescan givie the above actions cause it to do so. Charged to 100 and found that Media Scanner wasn't going nuts anymore, but after reboot found that initially it is still more active in JB it seems than ICS roms.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] haloeight:
Simple plug in / out doesn't seem to cause Media Scanner to activate - No impact on Media Scanner activity. Media under Battery steady at 6m16s, no partial wakelock entry in BBS.

Copy 135mb file to phone internal storage, disconnect - no impact

Copy same file back to PC, disconnect - no impact

Copy 135mb file to external SD, disconnect - no impact

Copy back to PC, disconnect - no impact

So it seems as though whatever I did earlier at least got rid of the ongoing activity while the boot up activity is still there / higher than ICS.

Phone still seems to be connecting as a media device, which as majick pointed out is a nice thing since you don't have to mount/unmount. However I'm noticing it bypasses the third party copy handler I prefer (Teracopy) and makes use of the Windows mechanism, unlike when the storage was mounted previously.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] softballjunkee13:
After a full night of charge 2 n a half hrs in no visible wakelocks detected by BBS. Maybe after flashing ppl should try charging to full in the "settling" process. Just a thought
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] softballjunkee13:
Seems normal now
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] T.J. Bender:
Definitely is. 9% in 4 hours really isn't that bad, especially on JB and especially if you've used your phone for any length of time. I've read elsewhere that EntriesRefresh_wakelock is related to GNow, so if you're the experimental type, try disabling it (after creating a nandroid, of course, in case things go south) and see if it falls off. Having separate AlarmManager entries in this ROM (and, assumingly, in AOKP JB in general) is not uncommon, and doesn't seem to be a bad thing. BTW, I know we talked about this via PM; this is more for anyone else having the issue to see my suspected fix--I haven't bothered to set GNow up yet, and I haven't seen that particular wakelock at all.

Side note: exactly one day on battery, 54%, 1h11m screen-on time (yeah, Illnevertell, I know...). The usual one-day phantom drain hasn't really started yet. I fell from 57% to 53% pretty quickly, but it's leveled out at 53. The phantom drain on any other ROM would go from 60-ish% to 35-ish% in a matter of 4 hours, idle. I'm looking back at some past results, Majick, and this is pretty damn close to battery drain on Wizz or even Sky (which was the battery life champion for me until Wizz R2 showed up). Not exactly the same, but not the 2/3rds I was expecting. I've got a custom ref in place and will check it in an hour or so to see if the phantom drain has started, or if any wakelocks have kicked in.

---------- Post added at 08:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:51 AM ----------

Depending upon screen-on time (which it looks like there's a lot of), yeah, I'd say that's really normal. Don't mess with GNow lol!

One of the things I did with Orthus that I'm going to start doing every time I flash a new ROM is let the thing to drain to 0% after install, then leave the phone on while charging all the way back to 100% so it has time to settle while plugged in. Once it's been at 100% for at least an hour (although this is the one time where I'll plug my phone in overnight and leave it, so it's probably at 100% for 4 hours or so), reboot it, set the calibration point with the BatteryCalibration app, then unplug and use as normal to 0%. Should give things more than enough time to settle in, like it seems to have for me on Orthus.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] artbybart:
So far so good

Thanks mindmajick for your hard work!! Coming from SkyICS (another great rom), I was ready to try xperiance but then Orthus One came along, so I chose that instead. I've been using Othus for a day and has been working great. OMG, 261mb available on system ROM, and that is after google restored my backed up apps!! Simply amazing!

I ran Quadrant Standard and got a score of 1864 Antutu Benchmark came back with 5633. I'm assuming those figures are a bit low cuz of the governor setting.

1. Is there a download available for a digital circle battery (like the one in post [# 29)?

2. Is there a way to add button in the toggle menu for the flash light?

Thanks again for your efforts.

When I connected the phone for the first time to my PC, Windows just installed the drivers and what not. I then got a pop up saying SGH-I727.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] stoopendis:
Yes Ok. For some reason this old pc at work can't find the drivers. My biggest concern is...with ICS when you plugged in to the usb port a screen popped up asking if you want to connect via USB. Also in settings/dev options I cannot enable "usb debugging notify".
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] artbybart:
In Settings --> Developer Options, you need to have "Android Debugging" checked, which will open up the rest of the options underneath it, then you'll be able to check "USB debugging notify".

2 questions.

It is not showing the LTE thing when my data is turned on. Only shows 4G. Is that just how it is and i still have LTE or what's going on? When i first flashed it, it brought me all the way down to 3G which i never have at my house. I'm always on 4G LTE.

How can I get the messaging icon to show notifications when i have unread texts? It's one of the must haves for me, i couldn't find anything in customization.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] haloeight:
Hrm. I just ran a Quadrant Standard benchmark and came in at 2407, was getting in the 3300 range before.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] T.J. Bender:
On AOSP/AOKP builds, the notification bar shows 4G when you're on LTE, and H+ when you're on HSPA+. If it shows 4G, you're on LTE.

There's an option within settings to show notification count. No idea in the slightest where it is, and I'm not inclined to look right now (more interested in the BBS dump tbqh), but it's in there.

---------- Post added at 12:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:26 PM ----------

Ah, crap. You must've rebooted right before dumping this. Once you reboot, it resets all of your stats, and any trace of the problem goes away with them.

Seems like things are more or less back to normal for you, though, so I wouldn't worry about it too much. If the wakelock reappears or you start noticing weird, heavy battery drain, go ahead and dump again, then send that on over to me and I'll check it out.

Coming from another Majick ROM this one is good considering JB not ready for prime time. Launchers are subjective but I've not seen a manufacturer launcher I liked even a little so Apex installed and much better. Only issues so far are no BT stereo and no audio on SIP calls. SIP account registers and goes through the motions but no audio in either direction, it worked this morning on ICS. Tried a 3rd part SIP app just to be sure and also no audio.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Jrockttu:
I really hate asking stupid questions, but my cursory searches don't find the answer to this: How do I disable BLN altogether? Previously, I had been using BLN Control and just setting it to disable, but i don't know if that works or if there's a way to do it without BLN Control.

I'd rather not have BLN because it just keeps my phone awake and wastes battery, imo.

BTW, just flashed this rom at lunch, so far so good.

Yeah, CM9 based is doing what I need especially VoIP. Struck me as odd that a 3rd party VoIP also didn't pass audio which tells me it is a codec issue since the apps have worked since the oldest android ROMs. I can't expect perfection from CM10 so back to one of your other ROMs for me. If I can remember which backup to restore, custom names aren't as useful without the dates.. oops.

I was getting the notification in the msg icon, but then it went away! No biggie to me cuz I just have to pull the top menu to get my msg's. Plus I added a themed msg

. Which I think looks cool:p

Concerning the BLN I did download it from the market and enabled it. You also have to set it up in setting, display, pulse notification light check that box! Got the notification lights to flash when msg received!:D But when I disabled the BLN it stopped. :(

Just reporting the BLN issue w/the lights.

Same problem for me as multiple others. I can get could call audio over BT in my car, but no bueno for music playback. Haven't tried another audio playback device however. Definitly not a deal breaker. This runs as smooth as MW and has about equal battery life. If I could figure out the supercharger thing I woud be even better.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] haloeight:
Today - idle burn dropping to 1% - 0.9%. Very nice. Was saying to TJ earlier it would be great if a ROM ever got to the 0.3% idle burn my Nexus 7 does with stock JB (of course that doesn't have a radio working away in the background). Biggest kernel wakelock is coming in at 0.9%, no Media Scanner activity.

I know in this post majick mentions the supercharger is unnecessary / removed, but I found that the UI was noticeably faster / smoother after using it on MW R2. Would there be any advantage to putting it back in or are the changes committed at the ROM level?
