Had some issues with this function too, either it stopped before the job was done, but didn't prompt an error message so I realized it while trying to flash the ROM, or it failed directly in the beginning with the progress bar just jumping around like crazy.

Also it FCs quite often these days.

All of this using SlimSaberKat ROM, clean flash.

when you reboot, take of your charger, and plug it again after your rom is started. i have the same issue, i thing it is bootloader side, and not kernel side. my friend's S4 have the same issue on a stock Kitkat rom, only rooted with cf-autoroot and flashed TWRP via odin.

charging is working well with the stuck logo, you can just not start the device.

the actual question should be what youre doing with it. watching movies? if so, this is realistic, although i only get about 5 hours of screen time.

i also have the idea that touch boost can be a huge battery drainer for some people. when i'm browsing i always have a finger on the screen. with kt and touch boost on i get a permanently boosted cpu even when this is unnecessary.

also you're lucky if your provider has enough towers. mine is the third best (=second worst) out of four in my country... which is bad...

Can't you just give as some hints then? Achieving +70% of other people's screen on time while pulverizing benchmark scores with the same setup seems a bit implausible without disclosing how you do it. Even more as the people to compare with know one or two tricks by themselves. Your results seem to stretch the laws of physics a bit for my liking. No offense :)

I guess I'll make a tutorial how to achieve awesome battery life while having great performance. I oc'd cpu to 2 ghz and gpu to 545 mhz.

Give me some time guys.

But to begin here are a few things to have better battery life:

-a good rom (cm11)

-a good kernel (ktoonsez)

-disable nfc

-disable automatic display brightness (adjust to the situation you are in)

-try different modems! (network reception has such an GREAT impact on battery life)

-disable ALL cell broadcasts (I don't know if it matters but I don't need it..)

-disable app syncs that you DON'T need (they drain so much battery, I sync gmail, keep and calender)

-freeze and/or deactivate unneeded apps (important for battery life)

-use greenify(!!!) (very important)

-ART seems better for the battery

This things should give you better battery life.

I'll add more things...

ART gives me better battery life and smoother scrolling / app switching.

If I compare the things I do to save battery, it's, if anything, more than you do (I use roughly the same ROMs as you, always the same Kernel, but with a more battery saving profile, I do the things you named + everything in black, 2G while at work and so on), and I can top your SOT only with my 5200 MAh battery. How can that be :confused::eek:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] VictorLallemand:
Yes please, like kernel tweaks (+script ?), which apps greenyfied + frozen/desactivated apps, and the rest of your knowledge :D
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] iamnotkurtcobain:

I can try what screen on time I'd get with a black theme and black background and cpu and gpu default values and uv but I'm ok with this ;)

But one thing should be clear. If you would play games all time such screen on time is impossible.

Gesendet von meinem GT-I9505 mit Tapatalk
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] munichsfinest:
Small addition I have to make: My screen on times are just more or less educated guesses as I never have an (even nearly) empty battery. So my sot is just a projection based on let's say 1,x hours screen on on battery. Under normal operations, that projection points to a sot of roundabout 6 hours.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] dr.wtf:
already did everything except of using cm11 and art. i'm on ge at the moment

disabled, broadcasts and 50+ packages with titanium, also nfc

probably tried all modems... i'm on the latest now too... though never noticed a difference

froze everything that has to do with sync

i even freeze google services when not needed

of course greenify is used too...

Stop these posts already... You have proved your point, your phone is wonderful, well done..

You keep posting pix isn't achieving anything... You don't even tell use exactly what you use and how much time you spend on each app.. So the pix becomes void without anything to back it up. I don't know if you are trying to show off or your just bored. You keep on about your "android knowledge" and how wonderful your "optimisations" to the ROM are yet you haven't shared them once.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] dclarkg:
I don't mean to be a prick but I just don't believe you, I have tried the same things you have and while some of them indeed help battery life you are getting twice SOT than the rest of us mortals, 5 hours is amazing but believable, 6 hours is insane but with UC + UV + almost no brightness + no sync + no gps + dark themes etc. Getting 7+ hours with your configuration is just out of the math.

I'm not saying is impossible I'm saying that under your configuration it is, and if indeed is true then you have to understand that the reasons to think that you are lying are pretty strong. Nothing personal of course, just my opinion. [emoji4]

7+ hours is not a matter of a little tweak here and a little change there, and he does not have to post a profile here, then some optimizations there and so on. If he really is telling the truth then he should start a NEW topic with ALL the magical things he does on the OP and help us godless mortals.

The numbers he gets are just out of any reasonable logic and he must provide every single tweak that he uses to: 1- back up his claims 2-help and share with the community
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] John_wba:
all he's doing is showing off (he's had 5 pages to give instructions).... Giving us bits n pieces of info but nothing substantial.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ktoonsez:
Definetely can't fix that app, look at the last_kmsg yourself and you will see a million of these plus dump info of what the app was doing:

msm_iommu: Unexpected IOMMU page fault

If you are gonna try ktoonservativeq again, set touch_boost_cpu_all_cores = 0. Auto_hotplug is ignored while using ktoonservative, it is just a min controller for hotplugging when you select a governor that can not hotplug itself.

Oh, one last thing, nobody should really be posting a last_kmsg if you are UVing and/or OCing. If you have issues with reboots, remove that part from the equation first, and if it still persists, then submit the logs :D :good: :highfive:

On the whole "low scores with antutu" and maybe other benches, the default throttle temp of this kernel is really low. According to this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2287094

"By the way the default throttling files on the s600 SGS4 will not start to throttle before 85c and it doesn't drop the GPU either, this should give a good idea how held back the s600 is on the HTC One"

Went ahead and changed throttle to 85c, throttle down till 80c, and presto, awesome scores. UV all over by 50mv, max clock 1998Mhz.

And, awesome kernel in general!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Abu-khulzat:
On the stock kernel, when I open Android Tuner, I see that throtling is set at 70 C. So how trustworthy is that statement that SGS4 will not start to throttle before 85C? And how safe is it to let CPU go all the way to 85 C?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] kfallz:
Read around at the top of the post, lots of links and stuff there, among others that the shutdown temp is 120c, for example. Of course, higher temp means shorter life time in the long run, but 85c isn't especially hot concerning chips in general.

Probably more aimed at "OMG MY DEVICE IS HOT" than actual damage to the chip itself. Might have been changed to get less of that @ throttle temp, from what he found
