I knew someone will pounce on me for this :) but no offense. Let me give different perspective, specially people who deal in percentages they will appreciate it better. When we are talking about 0.5-0.6 to 1%/h it is almost 100% degradation in battery performance that sounds scary right? Also someone said 4 days of standby time, wouldn't have you liked if it were 8 days of standby, huge 4 extra days.

So I'm not complaining, it is fabulous ROM and hats off to tonyp and pengus77 for that but you know it is a human nature that once you get to a certain level you like to sustain that unless the price is too high. So I was just wondering if there is any low hanging fruit which we can pluck to get to that 0.5%/h (with data/wifi/bt/gps off only pure cell phone) drain. Regarding bb or ril affecting battery, you never know, it is a code at the end of the day and you already know what a badly written code can do. So no harm in knowing just what caused this 80-100% degradation unless again it is lot of effort to dig out :).

Ok, that marginly worst drain that you elaborate is in error tolerance and I presume any dev could care less about it cos its so minor. Even so you could waste your time in batter battery stats performing deep analasyis what app or whatever is draining that tiny amount of battery per houre :D

Account sync problems

Sorry if this is off-topic ...

I'm on B08 kk109 using gapps lite. I've always had sync error for chrome (actually, bookmarks were downloaded at first connection I think, but subsequent syncs failed) and got the following message:

Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly.

But since yesterday I also got failed syncs of gmail, and, after removing and adding back the account also with contatcs (only a handful of them being downloaded to the phone) but not with gmail.

Could this be due to the use of dynamic fsync? Any suggestion to restore a working sync?

Thanks a lot for any hint,

Sorry for OT

I dont think this is software related. I had this with my other O2x aswell, but when I opened it and cleaned the powerbutton it disappeared. Now I'm experiencing the same thing with my second O2x, but since I destrpoyed the first one by opening it I don't want to do the same to this. But maybe try with compressed air or something similiar, that can remove the dirt.

Edit: What I mean is that the button seems to register two presses instead of one, but I'm not sure. Maybe it is software related:/

Memory tip

I'd like to recommend the Greenify app.

I just noticed it on the xda portal, it's really excellent for our low memory device. :fingers-crossed:

I unfroze Facebook and applied Greenify for it, perfect.

Additionally I added Google Maps and the Amazon Appstore to the list, which finally keeps their background app services shut down.

The author warns that Google Maps might get awoken by Google Now.

I have removed Google Now ages ago (deleted it from /system), as it's pretty ressource hungry and the functionality isn't worth it - at least for me.
[LG Optimus 2x] Ximo F. Verde:
Thanx for the tip tonyp much appreciated. Talking about tips, im sure many users like me where very interested to see your own personal setup in all 3 apps used for fine tuning here: Kowalski manager, performance control and trickstermod http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=38412377&postcount=1430 . Even though its understandable that due to hw variations not all phone would react the same, for some it might function in the same (beneficiary) way it did for you. Therefore, id like to ask, if its not a hassle, to continue providing us w ur own 'defaults' in case those change and/or any other tips (like the one above) that you consider helpful.

Greenify is indeed very effecient for a device such as ours. Wouldn't be a bad idea to include the app in the next build since we have more than enough space available already ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
Of course I'll keep you posted with information and tips about my personal usage :)

You now do have my PA config (tonyp 2013 profile) and advanced performance configurations.

As I've already been asked a couple times I want to make a post with all the apps I'm using, but as I don't want to just make a stupid list of apps this needs a little more time.

One more personal tip for free, please try not to write your whole sentence into a single line :p

Oh and yeah, good news:

I've requested a dedicated "developer discussion" section for the 2x and we'll get it in about 2 weeks. :)

See here for more information: http://www.xda-developers.com/announcements/new-on-xda-developer-discussion-for-the-note-ii/

It will be a spam-free section where only development-related posts are allowed, no chitchat or useless posts.

This will certainly help to improve discussions about development - "dev only" threads have been hijacked in the past by loads of users, which made it quite hard to collaborate via xda.

Been using greenify for a few weeks now. Can confirm the maps problem . But overall its pretty awesome app.

Also Facebook is so hungry I replaced it with atrium works a lot better and uses less ram.

Other useful apps are gsam battery monitor you can see which apps are using your battery.

This ROM does look awesome, and since the broken kernel kind of broke my system partition, I'm going to wipe my phone and install this at the weekend. :)

First though, is it safe to remove apks I don't need from the flashable zip? For what I do, I don't need pdroid or all the custom lockscreens so I just want to save some space and ram.

Buy an actual alarm clock for like £2/€2/$2? Would that not make more sense than changing roms or even relying on your phone to wake you anyway? :D
[LG Optimus 2x] LarsPT:
That's strange... I haven't had any trouble with stock alarm clock and PA8/kowalski combo... And I've even UV'ed all "normal" frequencies by 25mV's... Did you perform a clean install of PA8?
[LG Optimus 2x] x_justin:
TonyP, great rom! Just have to try some ParanoidAndroid skills, because it seems nice.

When dynamic F-sync is enabled in trickster, unlocking the phone becomes quiet hard, it takes forever when the screen lights up. So for those who have this issue, just disable it (or install pengus exp 110 kernel and even don't touch trickster).

Would it be possible to integrate optional Fast Dormancy? In DMX 1.4, I discovered that it reduced the 3G power usage in deep sleep dramatically. Since Pengus introduced power management of the modem, the in-use baterry usage has decreased a lot! It also improved the standby usage of 3g, but I think Fast Dormancy is kind-off deep sleep for 3g, so it's even consuming less battery then just a lowered dBm when leaving the phone idle.

I know not all operators support FD, but a lot do.
[LG Optimus 2x] Custom40:
Yup. This "alarm bug" has been around for quiet some time now. Been on earlier PA builds too.. Happens 50% of the time - thats what annoying about it, you never know when you'll be screwed over ;)

A test:

- Set alarm to go off in 10 mins.

- Waited like 15 mins - No sound.

- Hit the power button to wake the phone - Alarm hit with the "Snooze or Cancel" screen, but 5 mins delay only because I woke the phone up manually.

Will see how the Xtreme Alarm app acts when I get home :)
[LG Optimus 2x] BS86:
if you add facebook messenger/whatsapp/Viber/SMS in Greenify, you won't get notifications for messages ;)

if an app added in greenify continues running, go to greenify, tab the app and then tab the pause-button on top, that should stop the app.

Silent and Vibration mode problem

I have an unusual problem, when I put the phone on Silent profile, it shows the icon on the status bar but it doesn't do what it should... when I receive a call in silent mode, the phone rings! :eek: and when I use the Vibration profile again the phone rings the same way only this time along with vibrating... (quite embarrassing if you are sitting in a big quiet library room like I was at the time :D:silly: )

PA 2.6-08-tonyp

[LG Optimus 2x] sobaquete:
Nope! As far as I understand, Greenify avoids other apps to work in te background. So, if you hibernate a messaging app, you'll stop receiving messages and notifications from it until you personally open it and bring it to foreground.

The purpose of Greenify is to prevent apps that you don't use too much to keep awaking your phone without your awareness (e.g. GMaps awakes to provide location info to other apps). So, don't hibernate messaging apps that you rely on, don't hibernate widgets (or they will stop updating), but DO hibernate those apps that you want to be awake only when you manually launch them.

EDIT: BS86 was faster than me ;)

Loss of old android id

Hi,

I went ahead last night and flashed pa_bld8 + kk_exp110 (after formatting/wiping). Everything went smoothly until I downloaded TB in order to start restoring my apps. At that point it told me that my Android Id had changed and I'd have to purchase the pro version to be able to restore it. I'm not ready to buy the pro version so I did some googling and found that it's not uncommon (although when I came from stock LG GB to CM10 I had no such problems). Because of the Android Id change it was no longer able to Sync with the right play store account. Anyway, to cut a long story short I reverted back to my last backup (which restored the Android Id) whilst I did some more research.

Seems there are a number of threads/tools which "may" fix my problem but I thought I'd see if anyone here could help - maybe it's a common problem, with an easy solution - if so (and it's not too much trouble) could someone explain how best to preserve/restore my Id during the upgrade to PA_Bld8?

Thanks in advance.

[LG Optimus 2x] aritchie:
Hmmm, maybe I'm being a bit dim. It was late and when I went to the play store I was expecting to see all the apps I had downloaded (including the ones I had paid for) but I guess I should have restored them with TB first - doh!

Thanks. :o

[update] Re-flashed PA_Bld8+kk_exp110. Was a little more patient this time with the result that all my apps were re-installed from the play store (obviously didn't wait long enough for this to start happening the first time). Anyway, all up and running - very smooth, very pleased so far. Big thanks to Tonyp, Pengus77 & everyone else putting in the hours.

Aside from latest problem with no deep sleep over night, I have frequent slowdowns when doing some multitasking. For example, yesterday while browsing on Opera and chatting on Viber, switching from those two apps always made phone do redraws and reloading of both apps. I've only Viber that is constantly running, and my ram is often hitting below 5mb and phone becomes really laggy and unresponsive and UI is twitchy. Launcher is reloaded as well if I hit home button at that slowdown event.

Jabooka , greenify your phone, use tonys performance values and flash memory tweaks including less launcher redraws. Watch which apps are loaded in long term and kill them, freez them, greenify them. Also try to use less memory intensive apps, alternatives to most popular ones :D
[LG Optimus 2x] stonebear:
That happened to me too, I use Better Battery Stats so I was able to see it was the gps which kept the phone awake and that I had forgotten to completely quit "GPS status" app, so that is what caused it.

So, I have lately installed the LG UI 3.0 as a try and I ended up removing Xperia Launcher completely.

It seems to be working better, so far, I haven't seen the icons load up one by one on the homescreen which I did plenty of times on the Xperia Launcher.

This is the launcher only, if you want the weather widgets etc. search for it yourself.

Installation:

Download the file from the link listed below

Push the .apk file to system/app (it is possible to have two launchers in the same time, so its up to you if you remove Xperia Launcher or not)

Set permession to rw~r~r

Reboot

Enter PA Settings & set DPI of the launcher to 240 if not set already.

Enjoy.

Maybe this could be helpful to some people:

I switched to this rom from Pengus CM10 rom without wiping data and only wiping system/cache, as it was written in the PA that it should be ok.

In general, everything worked fine, but the rom was much slower and more laggy than my previous one.

Yesterday I formatted data as well and restored all my apps with TB, and since then everything is much smoother and faster!

So if there's anyone there who came from another rom without wiping data and experiences lag/slowness, I recommend trying to wipe data as well.

And Thanks Tonyp and Pengus for the amazing rom and kernel!
