To me, eco mode on takes the a2 too lagging on scrolling app list and settings menu... All the ui was lag...

Even swype becomes much faster with eco mode off...

With eco on, cpu0 keeps on 100% all the time...

With eco off, cpu0 continues with 100% all the time, but cpu1 keeps around 40 and 70% while typing with swype or scrolling app or menus or webpages...

So, I think a2 has not a strong enough CPU to work well only with one single core...

Then, having the cpu1 off with screen on, to me, does not worth...

So next tests will be always with eco mode off...

[MENTION=4287139]dtrail1[/MENTION],

My lastest test setup was:

interactive stock

Eco mode off

Intelli-plug on

Power saving 2 and 0

BF on

SR on

Battery drain was 4.8 to 5.5% per hour (depending when the battery dropped the previous 10%)... So, 2.27 are still the winner hehehe

Additionally, both cores are always keeping in 1Ghz when they are not in deep sleep... only the load are changing... it seams that we still have some scaling issue...

I'm checking the load and Hz history from both cores with the program "Usemon (Cpu Usage Monitor)".

I tested also changing the Power saving from 2 to 0.

When PS was in "2", I got the CPU0 constantly with 100% of load and CPU1 with 10 to 30%. (but both were in 1Ghz).

When PS was in "0", CPU1 got more load than CPU0, but none of then got 100% of load constantly. (but also both were in 1Ghz).

I cannot see any battery drain effect changing the Power Saving setup (2 or 0) in my tests with above setup...

Now I'll try ktoon again with eco mode off and intelli ON... after that, I'll try a batch of tests with intelli off...

BTW, I don't know if the network issue is a moden driver issue.... it seems that the network is OFF during deep sleep. As soon as my A2 wakes up from Deep Sleep, it turns the network on again (it takes 30 sec to find my gsm provider signal).

So I guess that deep sleep could be turning off gsm radio...

Does it make sense?
[Motorola Atrix 2] dtrail1:
It's not about strength. It can do it, but it will eat more battery. A dual core processor is meant to work with both cores and optimized for balanced power consumption. Also turning secondary cores constantly on and off will need more power. That's why I usually use hotplugging only for suspend. But my generic hotplug implementation doesn't handle big tasks requesting the CPU. This can lead to Dead locks in some very less cases. I guess it would be the best option to use Intelli-Plug - but a modified one which keeps both cores running as long as the screen is on. So it can handle also big tasks even when the device is sleeping and enable the second core if needed.

[Motorola Atrix 2] dtrail1:
For intelli-plug hotplugging is now only allowed when the device goes into sleep. But you can toggle this by changing the value of the following entry whether to 1 (on) or 0 (off):

Oh man! Performance is soooo much better than the 27/2 build...but still have to stay with 27/2 because of network issues. :crying::crying:
[Motorola Atrix 2] Ayush Jain:
Network issues here too :/
[Motorola Atrix 2] ninguemrj:
I'm already trying the 3.25 build and I still getting network issues when the A2 goes to deep sleep...

Dtrail, if you have already built the 3.25 with a different modem driver... it seems that it was not enough to solve the network problem...

The first battery drop (100% to 90%) BBS marked 8.4%/h... what would lead it to a high drain yet... But as the first 10% usually runs out quicker, I'll wait more 20% drops to have a real measure.

I'm using:

Intelli on

Ktoon

BF on

SR on

Eco off

Yesterday, with the same kernel configuration, the build 3.24 was draining 3.8~4,5%/h with "GSM on" 100% of the time, "wifi on" and "screen on" around 30min. I think I can consider that 3.24 build had a good battery drain mark, but 2.27 was better hehehehe.

EDIT: Could the attached logs help to figure out about the network issue? I took them with SYSLog app when the network becomes available after the A2 wakes up from a deep sleep...

I'm using a clean and updated CM11 build.
[Motorola Atrix 2] ninguemrj:
Following today's test, same setup than last message, I it the results below:

From 90 to 80%, 3.2% / h of battery drain, what would be great! But....

From 90 to 15%, 8.4% / h....

Checking the images in the links below, it is possible to see that from 90 to 80 the a2 was left 86.4% in deep sleep.

From 90 to 15%, the deep sleep time rises to 88.7%... BTW the drain was larger...

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bz4s6pGazPVUaXVvNW5VbWhyWDg/edit?usp=docslist_api

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bz4s6pGazPVUekdYX1FYVmJUTWM/edit?usp=docslist_api

It seems that it took more time to drop from the 90 to 80%..., leaving some advantage to this range of battery level during battery tests than to the other levels... Maybe the 10% drop is not too accurate and each 10% differs from the others hehehe...

What ever... The over all battery drain for 3.25 build was 8.4%.... Now I will test the overall battery drain from 2.27 build again in order to check if its good drain marks are in all battery level or just in 90 to 80% range too...

I'll send results tomorrow.

Additionally, 3.25 still have network issues...
[Motorola Atrix 2] dtrail1:
90 to 15 in 8 hours? You should repeat the test. It seems that something went wrong, maybe an app or some wake lock. Such problems often can be fixed by rebooting. Also check wake locks with better battery stats.

disable cclock and gps and then try this might help. gps and cclock drains battery in 4.3 and 4.4 based roms and so its better to disable them when not in use.
[Motorola Atrix 2] ninguemrj:
No GPS, neither cclock...

Now I'm using the same cm11 ROM with 2.27 build. Up to now I'm getting 100% to 70% in 8hs...

From 100% to 80% I got 2.4%/h!!!

Nothing was changed, but the kernel build ...

Even the trickster settings are the same, except the intelli once it is not available in 2.27...

I'll wait more time before sending a new 2.27 shot.

The problem to keep trying the 3.25 build is the network issue... Yesterday I lost 2 important working calls during the build test...
[Motorola Atrix 2] shubham1120:
EDIT- The 27/2 is giving me an OTA where in change log, it's mentioned that the modem dirvers

Thanks for the info! Maybe the drain issues in 25/3 is due to network? I mean it drains more battery inorder to find network? But I must say that the 25/3 is much better in performance than 27/2. It's like a different kernel altogether!!

Waiting eagerly for the modem fix :fingers-crossed:

EDIT- The 27/2 is giving me an OTA where in change log, it's mentioned that the modem drivers for edison rolled back to 3.0.8.

The upd name is 3.1.1. Shall I download it?

[Motorola Atrix 2] ninguemrj:
Dtrail,

I wanna share the results of using 2.27 build for a whole day.

From 100% to 90% I got 1.9%.

From 100% to 80%, 3.4%.

From 100% to 50%, 3.9%

From 100% to 15%, 7.4%!!

From 100% to 10%, 7.7%!!!

It was similar to 3.25 build... The firsts 20% (100% to 80%) the drain is OK, with a little advantage to 2.27... The small drain difference in 3.25 could be explained by its performance difference...

However, not keeping the battery charged (above 50%), both builds (2.27 and 3.25) had a very high drain in from 50% to 10%...

I still think that it is not the kernel that consume more power as the battery is getting depleted... I guess that even with the 10% fix, the correct battery backup available is not accurate... It seems that the range 100% to 50% represents 80% of the real battery capacity. And the range 50%to 10% the other 20%... This would explain how fast it runs out and why it push the battery drain above 7% in average for a whole day.

The important is that I though that 2.27 build was much less drainer than 3.25... Actually a whole day test did show it is not a total true info...

I'll take the 3.27 to try it now. I hope that the network issue had gone :)

EDIT: I forgot to add a link to the shots. Now I included some wakelocks shots... As well CPU state shot... It seems to have some scale issues yet... Well, just 1ghz and deep sleep were used...

[Motorola Atrix 2] shubham1120:
I'm facing the same issue..the network is fine when screen is on, then as soon as phone is awaken deep sleep, we loose our network! Looks like this issue is more frequent in international atrix2 users. We don't always loose network when phone is awaken from deep sleep though.. But it's very frequent.. It comes back after a while..

Now is it safe to say that the issue isn't due to new 3.4 modem drivers? Because even after reverting to 3.0.8 drivers, network issue persists.

Also, tried on both 2g and 3g network

Would u require a dmesg log? Because I haven't installed it currently

The new OTA includes that fix I didn't have enough time to upload it to other mirrors. Will do tonight

Tapped from my RAZR BLADE
[Motorola Atrix 2] dtrail1:
The new OTA is online.

Some of you might know this problem: when using stock rom the device tells you about hdmi cable is plugged and forces landscape mode until you turn the detection off in display settings.

Something is wrong with the pins, maybe they need to be cleaned or whatever.

If you got the same issue, you will see the kernel log sometimes is full of edid reading failures because it still thinks you plugged an hdmi cable.

This is annoying and eats battery because it always put sound and video through that hdmi port.

To avoid this annoying bug I included a sysfs toggle which you can use to turn on/off hdmi on the fly, and also a new init script (in aroma) which disables hdmi by default (you can turn it back on everytime by /sys/kernel/hdmi/hdmi_active).

Also some more new stuff has been implemented to make the kernel working more power efficient. Waiting for your feedback.

I didn't have enough time to upload the build to the other mirrors. Will do later.

[Motorola Atrix 2] shubham1120:
This update is sooo great!! I've been using it for like..3-4 hours and not a single network issue!! The device feels very snappier compared to other builds. Idle battery life seems to be slightly worse than stock 3.0.8. But I think it would be wrong to comment on battery life without a complete re-charge cycle. So would report later.

I'm using following settings

1) Ktoonservative/vr

2) min-200, max-1000, min-screen on- 300, max screen off-500

3) inteli-plug- on

4) SR on for all three

5) Disabled nmi-watchdog in aroma, unticked bf, xposed, stock cam and 10 steps and HDMI was at default

Does disabling nmi-watchdog significantly impact battery life?
