Holy cow with these screen on times! Just yesterday, I managed to reach 3 hours of screen on time for the first time ever and felt it was an accomplishment. And now I see 6 hours, 8, and even 9 hours. All I can say is: How is that possible??

Rather than posting impressive stats, it would be more interesting and helpful if those with the insane screen on times could post what kernel and build they used exactly, what exact settings they used in extweaks (if extweaks was used), what modem and what other tweaks or settings they had and also describe as accurately as possible what they did with their phone and for how long. All of this together with total standby time and screenshots and the type of battery would be of immense help to everybody else!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Bl@ck:
8hr and 9hr screen time, are you guys even using that phone? i mean, just use it normally on 3G, listen to some music, read feeds and open links, post stuff on your favorite social network, etc. and the battery life shrinks to 2hrs and half at most.

Also, i don't understand but seems that some process randomly takes 100% of the CPU for some minutes making the phone really hot and draining the battery.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Neil15:
That RILJ report.. Is it normal? My media scanner seems fine because I didnt see it although I didnt disable it.. Im on latest mali + siyah..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Neil15:
I think I will get atleast 5hr screen time.. Stock battery..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] switchgott:
@iamnotkurtcobain

You have a big akku?

Kernel?

Settings?

Can believe 9 hourse one every time :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] carlocarrera:
and im only on vsync_sysfs (newest build)+ Siyah (vsync).

so nothing special, no special setting, no tewaks...nothing

and yes im using my phone (in my test setup i was NEVER in airplane mode for exp)

no games and stuff, but only because it is a screen test.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Neil15:

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Ruzzah:
I managed to only get around 3ish hours

This was with CM10 and Siyah

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Farmfield:
I don't want to point fingers, but putting up screenshots of your excellent battery life without disclosing you're using a 2.000 Mah battery is pretty bad form. Imo.

But isn't it kinda weird that a 30% bigger battery gives 2x the battery life? And I'm not saying it isn't, I know it does, but I seriously find it strange that it makes that big of a difference...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] iamnotkurtcobain:
Yes I'm using it. Like I said, whole day sms, few calls, whole day tapatalk, browsing and email sync. And always 3G/Wifi enabled. Screen brightness 25%. I killed all possible wakelocks, unneccessary apps and I use inverted apps!!

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Neil15:
+1, That's why I include those screenshots.. ;) Im kind of envious about their battery life.. But I know its not a big thing for me because I use my phone not just on texting surfing networking.. But most of the time phone calls..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] carlocarrera:
i told everyone from the beginning that im using the 2000mah battery, so what ?

its just that cm10 (and mcm build`s) are so good, that u can get up to 8h battery life :)

i do not get my 8h on stock 4.0.4 thats for sure...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Neil15:
I have a noob question: Whats this inverted apps? You kill wakelocks from? Partial wakelocks report? Thanks

EDIT: did a research and found out that inverted apps uses black background. ;) How did you get that IMNKC..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] drsoran2:
how do these stats fare? I'm using cm10 nightly and siyah + standard battery (tweaked for better battery life while performance is not affected).

Is it really true that the 2000mAh battery give almost double the screen time?!

Could it be, that all these long screen on times are only possible because the standby time is rather short? I mean, for example: 5h screen time over 10 hours standby time versus let's say 3 hours screen time over 20+ hours standby?

which is bettery in terms of battery life with screen on + standby and in terms of performance? Official nightly or mcm's build? I was on mcm's build before but there I could barely get 2 hours, now with nightlies I had 3 hours with same usage scenario.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Farmfield:
Anyone other than me getting absolute crap benchmarks with today's jb_mali build + Siyah? Seems Antutu can't benchmark the sdcard thus excludes that from the benchmark giving me 5.300-5.500 points, 1.000 points less than 10.13 jb_mali + Siyah (where it also benchmarked the SD)... Same with Quadrant. I get 2.600 points where I usually get 3.100-3.300 points...

And I actually don't think the device is slower, it's just that (by some reason) the benchmarks are not allowed access to the sdcard. And yeah, I tried the different paths to the sdcard in Antutu settings - no matter what it doesn't benchmark it...

Writing this I suddenly figure it might be a permissions issue, I'll reboot & fix permissions and see if it makes a difference...

Addendum; Also, regarding battery life... My Galaxy Nexus been here, unused on standby for 3 days now, and still have 74% battery left, hehe... CM10 + Franco kernel. That is just insane, imo...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] carlocarrera:
same here...

but the last two builds are the same.

benchmarks going crazy since 4.1.2...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sidrocks89:
I like these build very much.. But right from the first build I'm facing the same problem everytime. Whenever I connect the charge and use my mobile, the touch screen responsiveness become weird. This never happened on any other rom. Hope you'll fix it in next few builds. :o

Anybody else experienced the below scenario?

After flashing a new build, the phone will boot up and then be non-responsive for few seconds or so and then it will reboot itself.

But after the self reboot, I dont get any reboots and works without any reboots thereafter :confused:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Farmfield:
Eh, I get 4+ hours screentime over 14-16h standby with the last weeks builds using the std 1650 Mah battery so that seems very low - but if you play a ton of games, that's another matter...

Naeh, 13/10 build + Siyah was awesome, 6500+ points with default values, no tweaks what so ever...

And why do I care about this BS, hehe? Now I hate myself, buying into this ridiculousness that is benchmarking... :D

Yes, happened to me too, with todays build. Weirdness.

What do you reckon is a good display time for the default 1650mah battery with siyah and this rom?

I average around 2ish to 3 until battery is dead, lucky I bought myself another 1650 mah battery, I just chuck it in if I do a lot of gaming on the phone while bored, just in case I need it for the night if I'm going out :)

Has anyone checked out the thread link I posted before, it seems to improve the battery life on the screen without changing any performance, from what I've seen, it's a little bit more stable in a way, I got slightly more stable FPS in quadrant benchmark.

On the official CM10 Thread there are problems with sudden reboots and Kernel panics on the latest builds. I don`t read it here on this thread. So are mcm811`s builds not affected by those bugs?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Ruzzah:
I have had a few crashes with the latest, I'm not sure what a kernel panic is, but the most common crash I get is that, the device instantly reboots and the speaker makes a popping noise. Other one's are the device just stops responding, display doesn't turn off, nothing updates, but sometimes buttons when touched light up, however nothing change, then I have to do a full restart (hold power and wait till it starts again)

And the last tip of today before I go to bed is. ..

If you want to use touchwizux and to solve the problem about the crashing of touchwiz itself when touchwizux counts missed calls and mmses, try the touchwizux made for galaxy nexus and n7.

Touchwizux for GN and N7 has a limit of infinitious scrolling of pages on appdrawer and widgetpage - like trebuchet and holo - but no any problems are there.

There is a circle battery mod added to CM10 source like 2 days back so 10.13 build and later should have that... But the nicer looking one is a theme thing, yeah...

7.1 doesn't work with jb_mali, right? But 7.2 does. Or..?

And yeah, 10.13 + Dorimanx was probably the best combo I tried so far, not that I re-flashed it over todays jb_mali + Siyah, that works ok too, especially with the ';' removed from that script, hehe...
