I have read that, but I guess Im a bit confused as to how this is going to help the battery drain issue... I have even tried setcpu with profiles 192/192 when the screen shuts off and when the screen is on I have under volted to 1350... battery still goes down to 80s in less than 2 hours with no use at all or barely anything..mainly the screen has been off. - can you please tell me what am I missing?

Did you wipe data and system also? It couldn't hurt. From here on out please ask/continue this discussion in Q&A section here.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] :
I think there's something wrong with my phone... now when I try to wipe cache or factory reset in CWM, the phone just stays stuck in "wiping cache" and it won't do anything else...I've tried a different SD card and it does the same thing...I've also flashed the stock rom unrooted, then flashed rooted kernel and everything goes well except I can't wipe anything or it would get stuck... Im thinking the internal memory got messed up...any ideas?

Try reflashing CWM?

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T769
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] :
Tried that... still the same..actually I am unable to download anything from google play... it gives me an error...no matter which rom I use... I was only able to get a different CWM using 4shared... but still nothing...it just started doing this...running out of options...even if I try to do a reset.wipe in settings..the phone just stays on "performing factory reset", but it won't do anything else.

Ok... i found a CWM that allowed me to do a factory reset and wipe cache as well... So I started from scratch and reflashed this ROM, but I am having my original problem with the camera.. if forecloses right after I open it.. I can see the app open and closes right away...why isn't the camera working for me?... it has never worked for me with this ROM... at some point the camera opened but then it stopped opening all together and that's why I wanted to reflash the rom... I have wiped everything...even my butt!!!.. Im getting frustrated with this!!!

-----

Update...

I noticed that when I click on the camera a quick message saying "media scanner running..." but there is no icon at the top letting me know the sd card was being scanned...so I had to manually stop it in settings/running apps and now I can open the camera...I know that once the phone reboots the media scan runs for a bit..but not for more than 10 minutes...and it was running in the background hidden... this needs to be fixed...thanks.

OK..thanks for the info.. I was able to install the stock kernel..I can't find a cpu controller included on this rom... maybe is hidden?..or do I have to install something like setcpu or is there one recommended for this ROM.,.. I didn't see anything on the OP about that.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
There is no CPU controlling app included in the rom - lots of good ones out there, and you can manually adjust things through the scorched init.d as well.

As far as the camera is concerned - you are the only person that has reported such an issue, and have ignored my requests for verifying what file it is you were flashing (a moot point now I will admit) or a LOGCAT of the error. I cannot recreate this issue on my end, making it hard to fix. I have a feeling something beyond the rom is going on that is causing this issue for you (bad sdcard maybe?). Maybe try going back to stock 4.0.4 and see if it happens there? Regardless - I am powerless without information... information only you possess. I'm really sorry to hear you are having such issues, but I can only do so much. I hope to get a logcat from you soon.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] :
Sorry about not providing the log you requested...my phone was out of commission for a bit trying to get it back to life.. you are correct.. i think I have a bad SD card and that's why the phone was taking so long to complete the scan...nothing wrong with the ROM.. I actually like it a lot...once I flashed the stock kernel it seems to be working good now... Now it's just a matter of battery life for me.. trying to see what are the best settings for it... My son's battery lasts a very long time..for example.. he can be watching youtube videos and is constantly on Facebook and after 5 hrs of continuous use his battery is over 50% .. mine with the screen off in my pocket is at 30% after only 4 hrs... It could be the battery going bad.. I just wanted to make sure I had the best settings before I buy a new battery!. but I really thank you all that gave me pointers and suggestions and I am really grateful for your patience... Great Rom and I think I will be keeping this one for a very long while :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] johnb380:
My wife used to kill her battery that quick too and it was because she had to many social apps and email apps and widgets all auto syncing their data constantly u have to put the sync to manual or every 4hrs for most or all things if data is running all the time then ur battery is going to drain like that look at ur settings and such and change them ill bet that will help a lot plus cpu intense apps will kill a battery in like 1 or 2 hrs I have games that I'll only play while charging because of that... You have to think about it like that and also if u have ur screen on ull only get about 4 hrs screen on if ur lucky

My son has auto sync gmail and contacts and he's always on FB and watching youtube videos and his battery lasts about 3 times more than mine...my phone can be with the screen off for 4 hours and the battery would be around 30s.. his in 7 hours would be in the high 60s after watching videos and listening to music.

[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] :
Hey guys..

has anybody had any problems updating to tweaktools 2.2?... I did and now the phone boots up and then the screen goes black.

Edit..

So I guess tweaktools 2.2 update does not like the new kernel.. I can boot the phone only if I go back to the stock kernel.

Gave it another go and reflashed the new kernel and it worked the phone booted fine this time..guess it was just a fluke.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Thanks for the update... curious as to why it would do that, but glad it is now working :)

I have to agree.. this rom is by far the best I have come across - very clean & smooth and it looks AWESOME.

How can I be notified of updates for this rom? (not that it needs anything, but just in case there's an update).. I don't want to flash Rom Manager as I don't trust it 100%.

Well.. I guess I spoke too soon.. hahaha...

After the phone has been asleep (screen off) for a while.. when I wake it up.. the icons at the bottom of the screen where the phone, contacts, text and app drawer icon is...they start flashing fast on a loop and and the phone is inoperable.. have to take the battery out in order to use the phone..anyone else experienced this... It's happened a few times already.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] anactoraaron:
Are you using the default launcher/kernel? I have yet to have any issue with tweaked 2.2 and have been using it exclusively the past 2 weeks. Also I don't know if you are aware but I believe there's a 'soft reset' you can do by holding down vol - and power for 5 seconds. No need to pull the battery all the time.

If this issue you have occurs a lot you can try to wipe cache. If it persists, wipe davlik and cache. If you still have the issue wipe data/cache (factory reset), but that will erase all of your stuff, so when I get to that point I usually backup everything and reflash if I have a persistent issue.

BTW which recovery are you using? I know some versions of CWM and TWRP may not mix well with some roms and can cause issues. Usually a new recovery is ok, but sometimes it can cause problems. Also how did you flash this? Through CWM or ROM manager? You have posted some other issues so it may be helpful to know this.

Also not trying to be rude, but without a logcat this really belongs in the Q&A section here - this is a dirty, dirty, dev thread :cyclops::cyclops::crying:
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] johnb380:
Sounds to me like u may have changed the kernel to a setting that it doesn't agree with like maybe to fast of a clock speed or a governor that ur chip doesn't like for some reason with a few different kernels if I put my phone ondemandx it starts rebooting

[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Lol always seems to happen that way right? Without a logcat I can't really be sure, but I agree with the thought that some kernel tinkering may be to blame for the described issue. This assumes of course you've tinkered - regardless, you could maybe try flashing the stock kernel (available on tweaktools) and see if that makes a difference - keep me posted.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] :
hey.. actually.. I keep losing data connectivity.. it says 4g and I have a pretty good signal but I have no internet... I have noticed that if I reboot then I get data back. Here is a logcat.. hope it helps..

Forgot to mention.. the battery goes from 100% plugged in and as soon as I disconnect it goes down to 98%.

By the way.. I am using the stock kernel..
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
Interesting... I can see where it was connected and then became CONNECTED_OUT - which I am assuming is some sort of you-are-connected-but-can't-do-anything state given how the flags seem to be assigned in IPService.apk... Has anyone else had an issue like this? Due to some home internet issues my wife has been exclusively TMobile data-bound the last week and hasn't had a (noticeable) hiccup - is it possible it's a local tower situation? I know there are some markets getting various forms of attention thrown at them (rumors include beginnings of LTE, refarming, etc.) - I had a scenario that occurred while on VZW a while back that echos similar to this (lose data, so reboot/toggle airplane/replace sim to "fix"). Otherwise, my present skillset isn't seeing much in the way of issues popping out at me given the logcat (and thanks for the logcat btw!). I wish I could be of more help on this one.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] :
Any idea on the drop of battery charge from 100% to 98% as soon as I unplug it? - could be the battery going bad?

and do you recommend any wifi app that disconnects and reconnects to my wifi at home automatically...I have tried Y5 and smartWifi, but they don't work..they turn off the wifi when I'm not in range but they do not reconnect again...Im thinking those apps are not compatible with Android 4.0.4?... AND ,. am I right thinking that an app like that would drain battery since it's constantly looking for an wifi connection?... it's kinda confusing because they are supposed to help save battery.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
It could be the battery, but my wife's phone has always done that and I haven't seen any downward trends in her typical battery life over the several months she's had the phone. I know little on the topic, but in my experience such things aren't horribly uncommon. It may have something to do with safety precautions involving the battery - preventing over-charging and the like. Really I'm just shooting from the hip on this though - best to leave those with more knowledge on how lithium ion battery stuffs work to answer such things.

I've never looked into an app to disconnect/reconnect to wifi automatically. My wife leaves wifi on and only connects at home/family homes/etc - once she gets in range she connects. It may involve a hit to the battery to do such things, but you can force the scan to occur less often through a build.prop edit if you were really concerned. One disclaimer on this - this has been how she has always done it, so I have no pre-wifi-always-on battery life to compare against. That being said, from what I've read across phones such a practice has a negligible effect on battery life.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] :
Thank you so much for the info... Nevertheless, I really like the ROM - enjoy your day!
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] ggonsalv:
Use Auto Wifi On/Off from Google Play. Auto Wifi On/Off. It toggles Wifi on.

if no connection shuts down and then retries at specified intervals.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] :
yeah. I've tired that one already.. it does shut off wifi when not in range, but does not turn it on when I am in range.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] LiveFaster:
That is normal with battery. The phone doesn't let the phone completely charge as it helps extend battery longetivety. If that's even a word lol. Not battery life on a daily use, bit the actual life of the battery lol. And for your WiFi. Have you used tasker? Or llama, the free alternative. You can set it up so it recognizes the cell towers near your home, once it detects them it turns WiFi on, vice versa

My WiFi just connects and disconnects automatically when in range wonder why u guys need apps for that.?

Off topic kinda I'll tell u another cool app for automating things on ur Blaze its called AutomateIt ( free) its pretty awesome you can set it to turn ur brightness up when u select a certain game or any app or turn on ur Music app when headphones r plugged in and I even think it has WiFi stuff too but it has endless possibilities in it

He wants the actual WiFi to turn off. If you leave your WiFi on and leave a connection it won't turn WiFi off. It stays on, continuously searching for connections, eating your battery haha

Sent from my SGH-T769
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] ggonsalv:
You can set interval at which to retry. I have it at 5 minutes. So if I am near the wifi, the wifi will automatically turn on and connect within five minutes. There is no battery drain to determine location, but it keeps turning on/off the wifi till it connects. Drains less battery than having wifi on constantly.

Hope this helps

Ya I understand that but If u leave it on u can see all the DohDoh birds that leave their WiFi unsecured and of course always use MickeyDs WiFi to download stuff on the go since there's one about every 1000 yards... There's actually a stretch by the mall (by my house of course in good olé Ohio) where I can drive about a mile or more going from one stores WiFi signal to the next its awesome how it's almost at every store now.... I'll predict that in 5 yrs u won't even need cell service anymore as long as u live in a city and of course have a phone or app that allows u to do ur calling and such over WiFi Lol

I have been using Sentry to manage when WiFi is on or off for about a year and really like it. I had not heard of the other WiFi apps that were mentioned before. I think it is so cool how big the app store has gotten that you can find out about new apps that others have been using for a long while. It always amazes me.

Going to flash this ROM on my wife's phone tonight, she is tired of the memory issue that she has been having and I told her I could fix it with a root and a ROM.

lost EQ while listening to music

Got a logcat for you. I lost dsp eq sound enhancement the other day driving out of town. Happened after about 30-40 mins after I left. Sorry logcat is so long - I actually had to cut quite a bit to post it to pastebin lol. I noticed there's quite a bit going on with the audio policy manager, is that normal?

What caught my eye when glancing through the log was this- 01-27 13:31:00.391 W/AudioHardwareMSM8660(163): Attempt to close invalid output stream. Perhaps this is when the issue occured? Wish I could have been a bit more thorough but I was driving lol. Let me know if you need any testing :)

UPDATE 2/4: I just wanted to post that this happens regardless of EQ, as I installed the acid audio mod and the same thing happened. If you want a logcat for that I can get it just let me know.

EDIT AGAIN 2/4: It always happens about 30 minutes in when constantly listening to music. Hope that helps.

I noticed the UVLH5 Deodexed System Apps were available for separate download/install...

Are they included when installing the full version of Blaze Tweaked ICS 2.2 or should I install them separate before/after(?) installing Blaze Tweaked ICS 2.2?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dwitherell:
No, not completely. The full version install zip is debloated, meaning I removed system apps normally there. The first zip you mentioned is not actually flashable, but a copy of every original deodexed system app. I put it there if folks wanted to put back some of the stuff I removed.

Also in Tweaktools I am trying to install the Samsung widget weather clock and it won't download. If I select the option to install it loops and closes (crashes) tweaktools. Maybe the file just isn't there? Just wanted to let you know :)
