Re: [Team Kernelizers] {how to} JB and TPR roms

Simple test. Take away undervolt and test. Still happened take away the underclock. If still after that it very simply could be rom related. Many issues with new and old android versions and playback including bluetooth. What android version are you on, what rom are you on, and if on aosp what Gapps package? Try the above and let us know these details if you can. Between all of it the fault should be revealed.

You can either go to a more battery oriented tuning or change values on the tuning you are on now. For me if on 4.1.1/4.1.2 try increasing up threshold hotplug and up threshold for more power savings as well as raise the both down thresholds. I use 99/95/94/85 up thesh hotplug/up thresh/down thresh hot plug/down thresh. Maybe try inching closer to these from where you are at. There is no right answer but if you try a few changes you should get an idea what helps battery and also what makes it less responsive.

Like Castle Bravo mentions in the two OP there are a handful if users presets covering all sorts of handling preferences. Names are listed next to it unless i was the poster of the tuning.

A thought: In the OP, put the current most recommended starting points for someone looking for battery life, balanced, and performance. It could help those who are trying to figure out which settings to try out and may avoid us all asking for the same thing over and over.

Re: [Team Kernelizers] {how to} JB and TPR roms

Good idea. Since this is a democracy lol we will need input of what settings seem for users on them already fit which categories best. I can't just label a bunch battery saving on assumption so this can happen as users report back. So anyone reading this feel free to add some input. Until a setting has been confirmed to be oriented a certain way by a few users we will leave as is and add the labels as users collaborate on the reporting. This way only real world observations will be used as suggestions insuring a user is on the likely best set up for them. Great suggestion, thank you. Feel free to start reporting anytime from here on guys. If we get some labels up, no need to keep reporting on settings already reported enough to keep thread from being larger than necessary.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mw86:
One thing i can emphasize enough is the likely hood if your phone has even a few pics or music/video files media storage will often scan all of it to make a database. Normally phone would get hot and if it happens you can let it finish i recommend while phone is unplugged to save your phone from 10-50f higher cpu temps while running rugged and charging. Once it finishes its less likely to start back up but any subtle change to media files it kicks back in again, periodically it just starts up again anyway and guaranteed at every boot it runs all over again too. Can run for 10secs to 30min. I found having more files on external sd vs internal lowers that services use but not by much.

So far been very good on battery for me but i noticed we will always be plagued by screen on time some days i can have 30min screen on and not drop a percent others i drop 5% for 30min. I try to keep brightness only where necessary but it still happens from time to time. Haha we need AMOLED power savings mod :p

Heck anyway to mod media storage scanners behavior? There are two common files seperate but associated with the service. Android.process something to process yhe media files and another related to digital rights management. I wish there was a way to turn some of it off without hurting operations. Having the service fully off means you can't access media of any type. On Nova 3 i launched it then turned off service and came back to a black screen but renable and game resumes fine. So maybe we can bypass DRM, it would atleast be half the battle?

I found that not checking the "lock in frequency" in ktweaker was a good thing. With it checked, I always got the pop up saying my i/o was not the same when opened, so un checking it was best since rom toolbox already sees what my settings are and I don't have any other apps that can modify it, there is no need to lock them in, now everything stays the way I set it, even after a reboot. It just keeps getting better :)

Ridin the Mystic jellybean unicorn on my Ktweaked SG3
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] galaxys3man30:
Lock the frequency is mainly for benchmark thats about it some benchmark apps will drop what you have set to stock
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Xalky:
It would be nice if the service only turned on when you went into gallery. I know the reason it has to scan everything is to have it ready when you need it. But if you think about it most of the media is only needed when i want to look at it. Am i wrong?

On my my old epic we would freeze DRM services with no ill effects. It was a real battery hog on that phone. First figuring out what media scanner needs to run, then maybe adding a toggle to enable or disable it. Someone just came out with a 21 toggle mod in the themes section. Maybe that could be one of the toggles. Check it out http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2033061

Navigation issues

Any recommendations for settings to improve performance during Navigation? I find battery usage to be awesome with ktoonservative but performance during navigation (Google Navigation or Navigon) is often choppy (but perfectly smooth using intellidemand, so I'm pretty sure it's governor-related).

Re: [Team Kernelizers] {how to} JB and TPR roms

There is still buggy handling on 4.2.1 on Ktoonservative and Ktoonsez implemented a tunable to try to help the issue. Enable yoyo cpu load option by setting a 1 in Ktoonservative tunables. Also try setting cpu down block cyles to 20 maybe 40. If issue persists i would use intellidemand till handling on cpu load calculation is fixed in 4.2.1 itself(or 4.2.2 comes out and Ktoonsez makes a kernel for it). Ktoonsez before the temp fix recommended intellidemand since it isnt effected by the load issue. Should save plenty of power if the tunables dont help. Let us know how it goes.

Like a user above i have gone to no app for battery like JD and am now using just the toggles for the hardware and sync etc. So far saves more juice than JD but i must manually enable things for myself which is acceptable. Many willalways have use of JD especially if heavy user of various syncing and many different apps and backround data.

Back when I was on the epic, I installed an app called watchdog lite when I found myself in your situation. It's basically a task manager that instead of killing apps all willy nilly, alerts you when they're taking up too much cpu, thus draining your battery. Maybe it'll help.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dman918:
Do many of you use a battery manager as well, such as JuiceDefender? I am just not getting nearly the kind of battery life you all are.

Currently:

15% Android system (19m 19s cpu total, stay awake 34m 58s)

13% Android OS (17m 9s)

11% Voice Calls (14m 21s)
