Once my tax refund comes back I may head in another direction too. This phone is OK but I do get tired of the sluggishness and fighting what seems to be a losing battle to get speed AND stability. I've said it before but bears repeating: if not for XDA & devs here I would have junked this phone long ago.

Awake for 12 hours straight?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Bloodflame:
You must have some obtrusive background processes running...
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] afwolfpacked:
Get better battery stats and see what is not letting it sleep. I will wager it is Google. Between Google now/search and Google updates while you sleep as well as sync it can keep a cell from sleep.

Btw if using PMR. There is a kernel tweak that says disable normalized sleepers for better battery. Don't check those boxes because it won't let the cell enter into sleep and keep it active all the time with background processes. I tried it and in 2 hours it stayed awake and drained 40% battery with no use by me.

How are your guy's battery life with this rom? I have tried cm9 and cm10 and while the extra features are really nice, the battery life is horrible compared to my peach Sunrise ROM (see the attached screen shot for my current sunrise battery life). How long does your battery usually last?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] wrusry:
Battery Life

Here is my experience. Both my wife and I have used peach Sunrise, CM10 and Slimbean. Peach sunrise battery life is quite good. The battery life on CM10 and Slimbean is also good if we are on wifi. If we are away from wifi, the battery life is not great on CM10 and slimbean without some modifications.

The best solution for that for me was the app "AutoSync Free". This turns off sync when the phone isn't connected to wifi. I manually sync if I am away from the house. I have also used this in conjunction with "Smart wifi toggler" which turns off the wifi when I am away from the house. I am not sure how much of an effect this one has. I will be testing it on my wife's phone next week. (I work from home while she works away from wifi). This particular solution (autosync free) is especially good for my wife since she does not have a data plan. Even disabling data in the ROM doesn't help save the battery. Only stopping the sync helped.

Battery saving apps are an option, but I am not a big fan of them. "easy battery saver" was the latest one I tried and it could be decent.

I much prefer CM10 and Slimbean to Peach sunrise. Peach couldn't handle the gps apps in a very stable manner. Plus the standard email app works with my corporate Exchange server much better in Slimbean than it does in Peach sunrise.

Good luck. I hope this helps.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] BrandonCormier:
Thanks! I flashed Slimbean and am using an app called DS Battery Saver and the battery life has been pretty good so far.

Sent from my Samsung Exhibit 4G (Slimbean)
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] mmkaho:
gapps issue maybe

I did a romwipe i came from Peach sunrise to give this rom a try I flashed the rom zip tried 3 different times either gapps i flashed gives me errors 1. Problem with syncing. 2. Server information error within the play store 3. I flashed one addon package and didnt have the phone. Is there something im missing or is it a gapps issue
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] BrandonCormier:
What gapps are you using? I used the ones from cyanogenmod and everything works fine. What I do is install the ROM, reboot and get the settings the way I like it and then reboot into clockwork and install gapps. Maybe your download is corrupt, try redownloading it again.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] mmkaho:
i used the ones on the slimbean site but ill try the cm ones i download the jb 2012 ones right? And whats the battery life like im on peach sunrise i have a issue with it lasting only about 5 hours before i gotta charhe
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] BrandonCormier:
Yeah use these: http://goo.im/devs/Formula84/gapps-jb-20121012-4.1.2-JZO54K/gapps-jb-20121012-JZO54K-Formula84.zip

The battery is a little better than cm10 but not much. I use DS Battery Saver to put my phone to deep sleep and disable wifi whenever I lock it. That saves my battery tremendously. I can probably get 2 days out of it with moderate use. Without the app I can probably get 6-8 hours. I am still debating if it is worth it to have jellybean over battery life and so far am leaning that way. There are just so many nice features. If you have time I would flash CM10 and then use Titanium Backup to backup Apollo music player, then restore it once Slimbean is on. Its the best music player.

I'm sorry to hear that your going to stop updating Pac-man as it's my fav rom:crying: but it's completely understandable since you have been burning the candle at both ends for sometime now camcory in developing our exhibit 2 and a great big thank you camcory. :good:

Could I just ask camcory where are you with CM10.1 IE: 4.2.1 as i'm keen to see how the exhibit goes with this version and offer my services for testing camcory if needed.

Just like to say again camcory thanks for all of your hard work brother.

how do i get my data to work?? do i have to configure it or something? HELP
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] camcory:
I never had an issue with data but I remember reading about users who use sim pin lock experience issues and the workaround was to enable airplane mode then disable it?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] mmkaho:
I just jumped here :( but I've been screwin around with source of all ROMs I use might give it a try with this one and see what I can come up with but yea u do have a few too many ROMs to worry about

my phone got very very hot? is there any reason? im new trying roms
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] mmkaho:
How much stuff are you doing at a given time and are you overcharging it?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] sodiuum:
i was installing apps and its charging
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] mmkaho:
See if its still hot after an hour is so after u unplug from charger and finish installing apps
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] afwolfpacked:
Depending on how long left on charger while doing what you were doing and how long the installs took it will and could have built excessive heat. I monitor mine with rom toolbox to warn me when over 105 as at 110 damage can incurre to CPU but battery will degrade at those temps.

wow everyone. lots of hype around this slimebean rom. im eager to try but need some hand holding. Im coming off of wildchilds xquizit which ive been using for a while now, and now have found out it has security issues?! I havent done much rom swapping.

to get the most out of slime, i should flash a custom kernal? if anyone cares to PM me I can try to save spamming the forum.

thanks all!:good:
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] det0xx:
Download ROM, download Google apps also known as gapps from original post. Place them on the external SD card. Make sure you are using an updated recovery for our phone so process is smoother. I recommend using team win recovery aka twrp. Back up any data you might want to save. Now in recovery make a nandroid, factory reset 2x , ROM wipe 2x and to avoid play store DPI problem wipe internal SD 2x. Then flash ROM and gapps. Let it boot. Enjoy!
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] teerout:
alright i can follow those instructions! :laugh:

not finding the gapps for download from OP, link takes me to themes.

[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] meekrawb:
If you do this you don't have to change the DPI to 240? How did you figure this out??
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] det0xx:
I've flashed this ROM so many times. The first time I had issue with play store so I did what they told me and failed so I experimented. I'm guessing the play store read cache from my internal SD and interfered with the changed DPI play store
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] meekrawb:
Oh okay. I fixed my play store issues by changing the build.prop DPI to 240 in the ROM zip. Good to know there is another way.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] det0xx:
Yeah. It requires patience and some thinking. I'm think of making ROM installation video for all the ROMs on our phone so that people can watch since they get lazy to read
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] camcory:
Ok I know I said I was stopping this but I decided to whip up an updated version with 3.0 kernel hopefully all goes well it will be out later
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] det0xx:
I guess I'll make my video once its up! Good luck!

[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] rollinghills:
Does this rom not have exchange email? I didn't see it under "add account." Looks like it can only add Gmail accounts? Thanks.

Also can I delete the rom and gapp zip files off of the SD card after flashing?

[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] TheTofu:
And to think just yesterday I went back to CM10. Oh well, at least I now have a good baseline nandroid if Slimbean goes wrong.

Anyone try this with DBK 3.0?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] teerout:
Cool deal . Flashed up and running. Talk about leaps and bounds, hardly the same device I've been using the last few months. Many many thanks. Donations are in order!
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Tim1928:
Dbk works well with this new version
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] det0xx:
Am I the only one that experience severe lag after flashing over an older build? And I don't have a lot of apps? Plus I clear my ram. No complaints because I just did a clean install to solve it
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] camcory:
I probably should have full wipe is needed due to major changes.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] camcory:
I should have noted full wipe is needed due to major changes sorry
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] meekrawb:
I installed twice with full wipes and got the lag. Then I tried the old version and it works fine. I guess the new version doesn't like my phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] det0xx:
Its fine man. Thanks for the long anticipated update to this rom! .
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] camcory:
This is my battery life so far 75% in about 23 hours moderate use.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] wrusry:
Thanks so much for the updated ROM and change of mind about dropping this ROM. I was very happy with the previous build. I will try this new build this weekend.

Your battery life looks good. It looks similar to my experience with the December build: battery life was very good when on wifi. Not as good when off wifi. I used "Autosync Free" app to turn off sync when not on wifi. That helped greatly. I will try with and without that after I flash the new ROM.

Peace to you.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] darkynk:
Does the LED work from the status bar?

Confused about slimbean update

I'm a dummy and I'm confused about talk about an update. I've been using slimbean for a couple months, and my phone shows that I'm using Slim - 3.1.0-20121203-2012-unofficial, Kernal Version 2.6.35.14-cyanogenmod. Am I current, or is there a new release/update?

When I go to the first post on this thread from Camcory, it doesn't look like the links to to anything new. What am I missing? Sorry for being a dummy. I've really been loving this ROM and looking forward to the upgrade if it's out there. Please advise. Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] tazmaniondvl:
The changes ate the kernel, from 2.6 to 3.0
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] motorapido:
How to flash the new update?

Ah, gotcha. Questions:

1. What does this new kernel achieve?

2. The new kernel isn't overclocked, is it? A big requirement of mine is great battery life, and I also don't want to risk burning out the phone.

3. I assume I make a nandroid, put the new ROM and kernel on my external sd card, wipe ROM, wipe Cache, wipe Dalvik, wipe cache/Dalvik, wipe data/factory reset, boot into CWM and flash the zip?

4. I have the gapps on my external SD card that I flashed when I first installed Slimbean, months ago. Do I use those same gapps, or must I get new gapps?

Thanks for tolerating my dumb questions. And thanks to camcory for Slimbean and for this update.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] det0xx:
Include project butter. No its not over clocked. Yes always make a nandroid., before you o all that make sure you are using an updated recovery. LSO I would recommend wiping everything twice. Factory reset 2x , wipe cache/ dalvik cache 2x wipe ROM 2x and proceed.

---------- Post added at 09:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:09 AM ----------

Try wiping everything 2x on twrp recovery. Including internal SD. Back up everything first
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] motorapido:
What do you mean by updated recovery? I am using the same Clockwork Mod Recovery that I installed when I installed the first version of Slimbean. Is there an update I need to make to Clockwork Mod Recovery? Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] lunerceli:

[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] motorapido:
wifi tether fix?

Is there an easy fix to make the wifi tether work? That's a feature that I really need badly, so I won't be installing the new Slimbean until the wifi tether works. What's the news? Thanks again.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] det0xx:
I know I use twrp two but he stated he had cwmb;)
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] camcory:
Ill see if I can decompile framework-res and add it without having to to build again.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] meekrawb:
I seem to have gotten rid of the lag with slim gapps but play store was constantly closing while installing apps. Weird stuff.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] lunerceli:
Also on another note. If you like using 3rd party camera apps, then look for the camerhal file that I had posted on here and flash it in recovery. That will make almost all 3rd party camera apps work. At least you would be able to deposit checks using the new kernel. :):thumbup::D

Has anyone been getting reboots after turning on airplane mode?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] gomangoman:
I can confirm airplane mode also causing reboots with the 2/17 release of cm10 using db 3.0 kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] meekrawb:
No reboots but turning it on locks up my phone. Not a big deal for me since I leave it on permanently.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Neoxal:
Well, it locks up and then reboots. Do you operate on Wi-Fi only?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] meekrawb:

Happens for me with CM10. When kit reboots, it's still in Airplane Mode and I'm able to switch it back off without incident.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Neoxal:
Same. Well I guess it's a CM10 issue then.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Allen3697:
I flashed the latest build last night after a full wipe and I notice there's a lot less available RAM. I haven't installed any new programs. Before I had around 125mb available and now I have 25mb. It's really laggy pulling down the notification bar and swiping away programs. Any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] det0xx:
do another full wipe, 2x factory reset, 2x rom wipe, 2x internal sd, before back up the things you way want to keep from your internal sd top an extenal sd. trust after youll end up with 80-95 mb free
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Allen3697:
Also, the GPS is ALWAYS on with this build, always trying to lock on, but with the last build it only needed to search for it a few times but it's always searching with this build. Any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] ArtfulDodger:
Just an observation but you guys that are going to use JB ROMs should not expect and will not get perfection. Every single JB ROM here has some issue or another, not a reflection of Cam or any dev but of the limitations on this phone. If you use any of the CM10 based ROMs then you should be willing to accept any lag, battery drain or other imperfections without complaint. If you want everything to work without fail, then use GB which is what was intended for this device. That or upgrade your phone.

It's fine if you prefer the latest OS for this device but all these comments about lag, GPS or this, that & the other not working start with the first posts of these ROMs and end with the last. You'd think after several months of the same problems reality would sink in. A 3.0 kernel was supposed to be the "holy grale" for this device, then one was finally made and still people aren't happy. What happened to "buttery smooth once we get it"? Buttery smooth means 1 or 2GB of memory and dual core CPU, not kernels.

I had to rage a little because all week long EVERY single JB ROM thread has the same old complaints. It's one thing if the issue is a new one not mentioned before, but when a horse is dead it's dead. Am I wrong on this? If so, tell me how.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] smartguy044:
Jb runs fine on this phone. Some problems are user error and can be easily solved. IMO there is a lot less lag on jb then there is on gb. But don't complain about GPS or camera etc because its not a matter of it being the phone its just how running a source base ROM works. If you look at the 989 they didn't get 4.2 till months after me and cam was using it and its a lot better phone. So yes this phone sucks but give it time and jb will get better. If it isnt coming soon enough for you by all means make it yourself or donate to one of the devs working on it to let you know that there work is appreciated
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] meekrawb:
Yeah, I've never had any of the problems with JB that Artful talks about. Slim Bean 3.0 kernel just didn't like the official gapps on my phone. That is the only problem with lag I have ever had.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] ArtfulDodger:
I agree 100% on the donation thing, but have to respectfully disagree about the lag in JB vs. GB. Only my personal experience to go by but GB never crashes, lags or random reboots on me. Every JB I've used has done that at some point. As I've touched on before, it comes down to not enough RAM. This is not a complaint by all means because as I said, if you make the choice to use any ROM really, you accept any faults that come with it. That or switch to something else. Lately it's getting to where you hear the same old stuff or even worse people flat out ask for updates and improvements like somebody did over in the Linaro thread yesterday. You're right, those people should get to building!

Edit: I should have said none of the custom GB ROMs have had those problems, stock flat sucks.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] skyrmion:
Just an observation but jb runs frakking great on this phone. Some users report problems in these threads and others are thankful the devs continue their efforts. My phone has never been faster thanks to cam, tim, and smart guy!:)

If you have issues search afwolfpacked posts, the guy knows what he is talking about. Use greenify app when having battery drain problems. Rogue apps are much more likely to be your problem unless EVERYONE has the same symptoms. Just chill, research your issue before posting, let the devs do their thing. Slimbean, Tim's dbk3 kernel oc'ed to 1.7, 256k swap partition, running latest crossbreeder mod with NO other tweaks, and no issues:)
