Re: [ROM][OFFICIAL][CyanogenMod 10.1 Preview2 Hercules][TeamChopsticks]

I have had the same exact problem at sporting events on a few different ROMs that had stable battery life before said game. My view is that any data sent and or received in a crowded area takes longer because of the slower download speed as about 20k other people who are on the same network are using the bandwidth as well. Longer time downloading or uploading means more battery wasted.

Does anyone agree or disagree? This is just a hypothesis...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] CHBAD:
I dunno....first game I have been to in years. But I do know that I am not getting battery life like I was on the Darkside ICS rom of old days. Just wondering if there are things I can do.

Re: [ROM][OFFICIAL][CyanogenMod 10.1 Preview2 Hercules][TeamChopsticks]

My phone refuses to deep sleep when pulled off of a charger. A vbus_present wakelock keeps it awake. That could be happening to you too. It's an issue that has persisted through multiple installs of CM 10 and now 10.1, though it is supposedly related to the charger. (I don't blame the rom, which is more my point.) I've just gotten in the habit of rebooting my phone if I'm going to be up and around for a bit.

I keep telling myself that I'm going to research this further, but I've been lazy about it.

Curious, are 4.3 elements in the 27th nightly?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mycars12:
none that i have noticed so far, but all i know is that 4.3 still has some things that need to get sorted out
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] car vs driver:
No, 4.3 is an entirely different branch/build than 10.1 (4.2.2) and will have it's own nightlies once we manage to get it working.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] TU Homer:
Thanks. I've been on 10.1.2, and it has been really nice. But I went ahead and upgraded to the latest nightly. My backup is there in case the nightly loses some of that stability that CM10.1 is providing now.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Gen00:
Waiting for the new camera app flashing after the weekend when supposly it'll be added to the nightly.. It looks really nice can't wait to try it.. 1st phase of Nemesis project..

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] t3dpott3r:
I tend to use multiple apps while in navigation mode. If you would like to test these are the steps to emulate the crash.

>Run navigation > place call > once call is over try returning to navigation through pull down menu.

It crashed 1 out of 5 times for me on multiple roms permissions fixed on clean flashes.

Hope that helps.

PS. Add jedi master 16 to that list

Just had this happen to me. But in my case I was still getting voice directions but couldn't get back to the map. In my case I received the call while in navigation mode.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] t3dpott3r:
Yes, I typically get the voice guidance as well. Its the getting back in that causes the crash.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] JesusWazBlack:
Nope that's a 4.3 feature and the 4.3 night lies havnt started rolling yet so no.

Nope

Um nope sorry. Nowhere Anywhere does it say that it is a 4.3 feature. This is about all I could find about it from the AndroidPolice expose which is why I was asking.

fyi there are no nightlies for 4.3

Can someone tell me which file I have to edit so core1 stays on instead of going offline. I noticed when I turn it on with kernel tuner, my phone is much smoother.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Relsig:
Turn off mp-decision. If kernel tuner doesn't have the option then use trickster mod.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] H3adru5H:
The problem is that I don't want to use a CPU tweaking app (loading on boot us annoying to me) I want to edit the actual file so I don't have to touch it again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] car vs driver:
Crack open:

/system/etc/init.qcom.post_boot.sh

And add the following lines:

chown root.system /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
chmod 444 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online

There should be a spot in that file that says something like this:

case "$target" in
"msm8660")

Just put those lines in that block of code.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Crewchief521:
i have the 2.0.67419 firmware after going to stock and re-rooting. Think this will fix the bluetooth issue with 4.2.2? When i clean flash a new ROM bluetooth will turn on but after about 30 minutes it will turn off and not turn back on again. The slider will move to the on position but then go right back to off. Just trying to figure out why it does this and if this will help.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] FCORivers:
Im having this issue too, but i was sooo waiting for tw4.1.2 that i updated as soon as it was available, months ago. I don't think is got something to do with that, if you flashed the file and newest radio thru Odin. I believe its more of a linaro tool chain used. Almost all of 4.7 linaro works for me as for 4.8 linaro builds are hit or miss with the Bluetooth issue.

Cl3kener wrote about wiping SD cards as it might clean data that could be affecting BT, but in my case did not make a difference. Still is a hit or miss with 4.8 linaro.

That's my experience. I AM NOT TRYING TO FLAME NOR COMPLAINT. In fact, there are so much ROMs out here that there should be anything to the likes of everyone, if that makes sense, lol.

Edit: don't know what I'm talking about.

I agree. Our 4.2 roms are all very stable. It's a good time to own a hercules.

I'm not saying it's important to ME. I'm just saying I've been able to go close to 48 hours with only an hour of screen time. Yes, background tasks, usage patterns, and running apps all play a role, but IMO the screen on our phones is what drains that battery the most.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] krazierokz:
if you want to see something even crazier than that i can screenshot a pic of my mytouch 4g and you will be like no way LOL, and highly agree the screen is one hungry battery muncher indeed +1 [MENTION=3068692]me_is_rushin[/MENTION] good to own a hercules
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] car vs driver:
Yep. Display uses the most power and is a good indicator of how good your battery life really is. But, all of the other factors matter too. In general if you're getting 3-4 hours of screen time, that's pretty good on this device.

My Note 8 in comparison can get me about 7 hours of screen time :p

Anyone having RR with the latest nightly?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] -DarkKnight-:
Do you have the latest firmware?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NonexistentParan0ia:
Same here. Currently on the latest CM10.1 nightly and Focal installs successfully and launches but camera view is blank. If you try to take a picture, 'Unfortunately, Focal has stopped' pops up and crashes. I'm guessing this is yet another issue with Samsung's issue with providing clear documentation for this device's camera drivers a while back. (Every AOSP-based ROM (usually CM or ROMs based off of CM) I've used has had a problem when switching from panorama mode to camera where a grey screen pops up and crashes after 3 seconds. Even ROMs just based off AOSP code has the same CM bug.)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mycars12:
You have to open app, lock screen, wake and unlock and then will take the pic in focal

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] wrusry:
New to T989

I am running CM10 on my Galaxy Exhibit and I do like the ROM. In that case, CM10 is way more advanced than the stock rom (gingerbread).

I just bought a T989 for my daughter and the stock is running 4.1.2. I hope this question isn't too far off topic. I tried looking elsewhere and couldn't find the right information. My questions are:

1) Other than the 4.2.2 vs 4.2.1 differences, what main advantages does CM10.1 offer on the T989 over stock? Faster speed? Better stability? Less bloatware (for sure). More configurability (I would guess).

2) What disadvantages? Is wifi calling an option and is it working? Anything else? Battery life?

My daughter is switching over from an old iphone 3gs. She's skeptical about Android. I'd like to put Android's best foot forward and I don't think stock is the answer.

We just got the phone and we saw something in instagram where some of the camera options above and below the screen disappeared. Don't know if it is an instagram issue or a stock camera issue.

If this is covered elsewhere, please direct me there.

Thanks in advance. If you feel this is too far off topic, please PM me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] JesusWazBlack:
If the phones for your daughter I suggest keeping everything stock.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mycars12:
lmao

a little cyanogenmod wouldnt hurt as long as she doesnt mess with some of the developer settings, but it depends

some builds of cyanogenmod do tend to have some bugs so its all personal preference but stock is the other option
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] wrusry:
Uh, thanks. That's a big cryptic for me, though. She's a high school senior who will likely major in engineering. Her iphone 3GS was jailbroken (she did it herself with my supervision) so she's quite capable.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] JesusWazBlack:
Oh ma bad. I thought you speaking of a normal text infused teenager
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tsuda:
Why not show her and let her decide?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] wrusry:
I appreciate everyone's inputs. However, I primarily want to have the group's input comparing the speed, stability, battery life (at the least) of CM10.1 to stock to know if it is worth the effort. She doesn't desire super configurability, so she's not itching to put a different ROM on. But if there are measurable performance improvements, she/I would do it.

So, bottom line: are there improvements in these areas in CM10.1 compared to stock?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tsuda:
I think the difference is mainly in the look and feel, touchwiz vs AOSP. Also cm10.1 is Android 4.2 and l like the lock screen enhancement. Otherwise stock 4.1 is very smooth and fast, esp. If you debloat it.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Zarin1480:
What part of that makes you question? The increased data use? If we assume that no data use occurs during "sleep" periods, there is going to be the wake-up data. As soon as the phone wakes up, it will check email, poll google for sync, etc. yes? If WiFi was off, it takes time to reconnect to the WiFi, thus using the data while WiFi is connected.

At least that is how I interpreted it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] new ion?:
I can't stand stock/Touchwiz since going to AOSP ROMs. Everything just seems comical on TW. AOSP has everything in its place, and from one engineering student to another, that's a nice thing.

I replaced my battery as my stock one kind of sucks... But I get roughly 3 hours screen on time in a day.

There is an issue of using the auto flash mode with the camera, as sometimes it will reboot the phone.

Other than that, and a sometimes Bluetooth issue, I haven't had any issues to complain of. No real slowdowns, no issues.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Koragg618:
I think CM10.1 is a good upgrade from stock because it has a light feel. TW is slow in some areas because of the number of stuff installed. Also CM10.1 doesn't have intense customization options so its easy use.

I say you should upgrade to CM10.1. Just make sure you flash a stable version :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] TU Homer:
I was on 10.1.2 stable, and everything seemed to work nicely. I went ahead and started to flash the nightlies this week. Currently on Aug 1 nightly. Seems solid, except for one characteristic that is causing some issues. When my alarm goes off (using the clock that comes with CM), I cannot shut off my alarm. Also, if I'm active in an app and a call comes in, I cannot switch over to my phone app to answer the call. It has to stop ringing, and then I can return the call.

Anyone else having this issue? I'm on the latest firmware. Should I try to wipe everything, since it's been a couple weeks since I've performed a full wipe. Or maybe just go back to 10.1.2 stable?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] me_is_rushin:
IMO there is no benefit to the nightlies. No major features have been added since 10.1.2 and nothing important will probably be added until 4.3 nightlies come online. As you can see from my signature I believe for 99% of people stable builds are better than the latest.

BUT, if you're set on the nightlies I would definitely wipe assuming you have a nandroid of 10.1.2
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] car vs driver:
CM10.1 is officially in maintenance mode, meaning no new features will be added to it. Only bug fixes.
