So i again git the battery drain last night .

I have noticed theres a little bit of blinking on the screen before the battery drain or freeze.

And i managed to take screenshots of wakelocks and battery stats just before the drain/freeze .

And after that freeze the phone didnt powered on and then i tried the full discharge method by removing the battery and pressing thr power button .

And again plugged the charger back and waited for it to charge a bit.

When it become 9% i powered on the device and it automatically turned to 35%.

I am totally frustated due to this . my battery wont even last 5 hrs :/ .

Please help .
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sidd23:
How do you manage to get such good battery life :o

And i have searched alot about the battery drain and tried several methods all of which resulted in failure :( .

Is there anything you can help me with ?

Thanks:)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] JavaScout:
Mate, you didn't get me... I say, most of the time, the reason for high drain is one of the apps that is NOT included in the rom. In my case it is Inbox by Google. The screenshot is an example of ugly drain case.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kai1313:
it did happen with me, blinking then freezing at 25% then i need to plug off the battery that make the battery completely depleted to 0%

try to charged your phone till 100%, then reset your gauge chip, usually it make your battery drop to 90+%, then charged again till 100%

after use this method, my phone can survive till the low battery notification pop up to remind me which is never happen before(cause when 25% my phone blinking and freezing)

about the drains, except the blinking and freeze, it depend on the user activity with the phone

fyi, now im using dorimanx kernel(has stweaks that easier to do reset gauge chip)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sidd23:
Later i did the full guage reset with that zip file i found on this thread .

But no luck with that one . And i am not able to find the latest dorimanx kernel . can u provide me with the link of it ?

Thanks :D

hello my problem to the Face Unlock is not working in this version there is some way to do it?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] stylemessiah:

I have already discussed the issue of a battery drain while using Gustavo kernel with this rom where the idle frequency only stays at 500mhz. Does anyone else have this issue?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Ahmad Ryashi:
I can't play some games in this rom like NFS most wanted & Modern Combat 4

please i need to HelP GuyS
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Twiq:
can you be more specific? you can't play because? is it crashing? is it giving black screen? is it causing sudden restart?

fetching logcat could help fusionjack to know the problem

i played NFS most wanted on older slimsaber kitkat builds and it's playable, dont know with the latest build tho
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Ahmad Ryashi:
When i open the game,it's be normally,but when I press Play everything Be Dark Dark (NFS & MOC4)

In another words:Yes it's give dark screen when i press play

THis problem in all kitkat roms

[Galaxy S II Android Development] RevanSM:
The questions is...

... You paid for those games in google play or downloaded from somewhere?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Ahmad Ryashi:
I Downloaded from somewhere

Note:They work in jellybean Roms

Just curious... anyone had any strange reboots or stalls recently?

Also... anyone have the APK name for the wakelock app that is talked about in this thread? Dunno' which one to choose from play store...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] gsainath4u:
For the wakelock app, I use BetterBatteryStats and most of the people here recommend it.

Here is the link for the thread from where you can download it.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Ahmad Ryashi:
Please any one give the solution
[Galaxy S II Android Development] gsainath4u:
We cannot help you without any proper logs or more information regarding the issue.

I would suggest you to take the backup of the game data using an app like "Helium", and then do a clean flash of this ROM.

After the ROM is installed, install the game again. Do not play it now itself.

Restore the game data using Helium and then play it.

Let us know how it goes.

This is one suggestion I can think of; assuming it is an issue with the KK ROM.

Mind you, this might not be perfect solution, but a starting point.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Ahmad Ryashi:
I did this suggest from 6 days ago

and doesn't work :crying:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] marzametal:
I've installed BetterBatteryStats (v1.16), then installed the addon BBS_xdaedition (v1.1)... weird since the zip file said 2.00RC5...

Trying to see what's causing the stalls... happens when I try to access the screen (I use a PIN and have set screen lock to immediately from the default 5 seconds)... and the reboots (sometimes happens when an alarm is called via Dashclock widget and other times pure friggin' random)... just gotta figure out how to logcat so when it happens again I can post.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] gsainath4u:
I have installed the BBS_xdaedition 2.00 B2.It shows correctly on my side. Haven't updated it to the latest RC5 yet.

Also, I think they are the same apps. Either you install from PlayStore or from the above thread.

Please collect the logs from "Settings -> SlimCenter -> Bugreport". Attach the zip file that is generated in "/sdcard/Slim".

---------- Post added at 03:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:31 PM ----------

How did you install these apps? Is it by downloading the data/obb folder also?

Where is this located? Is it internal memory or external sd card?

KitKat has SDCard bug which might prevent reading data from the sdcard.

Please provide more information if you want help.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Ahmad Ryashi:
Thanks to you

I downloaded these apps by downlading APK + OBB Files

located in Android\Date (For NFS most wanted)

located in android\obb (For Modern Combat 4)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] gsainath4u:
Hmm. I guess these files might be corrupted. Hence the game is not playing.

Can you give a try with a different device running 4.4; maybe your friends, etc.

Or the last option is to download these files again and make sure they are proper (md5 check).
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Ahmad Ryashi:
YES,,My friends try this games in their kitkat roms and doesn't work

they works in jellybean roms

I don't Think it's be corrupted beacuse i move game files to anotyher phones (jellybean) and it's work
[Galaxy S II Android Development] gsainath4u:
Sorry dude, I am at a loss on how to help you.

It seems like the game starts fine. But it tries to read the additional game data from the obb file, it is failing.

One last suggestion. Dont move the existing game data from another phone. Put the fresh downloaded data and try to run.

I am guessing that the data might be modified by the earlier ROM/version (like jellybean, etc) and when you put that data in this ROM, it is not able to play.

If you want to try this, I suggest you to take the backup using helium, just the game data; dont backup the apk in helium.

uninstall the game and then put the files (after a fresh download) in Android/data or Android/obb. Restore the game data and then play.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fusionjack:
if this 'downloaded' version never works on any kitkat roms then it is somehow not compatible in kitkat. try to use the play store version. uninstall it first and remove all obb stuff.

browser

Hi there,

I'd like to know if there's still video playback issue in the browser with SlimSaber KK?

I'm using now the SlimSaber 4.3.1. but it crashes randomly and freezes also, and lots of slower then KK.

Now, I'd coming back to KK but the only thing what bothers me the video playback problem.

So, is it solved now?

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Android Development] m1trand1r:
Well...Stock SS"R" browser has that issue and then some other browsers have it as well....Certain sites simply chrash browser.....but I never had issues on SSK....I don't know about video playback as KK doesn't support flash....but other formats that are supported by browser should work imo....:)

My phone mic is not working. Sometimes after reboot it will start working, but after sometime it again stops working again.

I'm on 21/12/14 version of the ROM. In previous versions i didn't have this problem.

Is it hardware related or software related?

It also came to notice that sometimes when i'm on call, when screen switches off (due to proximity sensor) the mic stops working. But when i keep phone little away and the screen is on, the mic starts working again.

Strange problem. Can anyone help?

Have you tried the fuel gauge reset thing?

I used to notice huge battery drops on reboot. Once it had dropped from 50% to 13% on reboot and within seconds dropped to 0 and switched off. After connecting to charge the device, noticed that the charging animation was showing a battery of ~47%.

After doing fgr periodically (every 2-3 weeks, total 3 times till now), I dont see huge drops.

Might not be related to sdcard installation as such. More of a reboot issue.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] JavaScout:
[MENTION=4833818]gsainath4u[/MENTION] , I'm performing gauge reset after each rom-flash. I guess it's not related.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] gsainath4u:
hmm. if you are already doing the fgr, then I guess this must be some other issue.

Im afraid, Im not able to think of any other solution.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] m1trand1r:
It's not necessary to reset fuel gauge chip on every rom flash mate....this way you'll never calibrate battery properly....I did reset it when battery level sudden dropped from 80% down to 30%....and after that I charged it to max....and unplugged charger....and issue disappeared for a while....:)

Possibly handy tip for anyone who finds themselves in TWRP (default recovery for Slim) and wanting to flash a kernel etc via an OTG USB key (like i did early this morning when my ext sdcard partition (which holds my zips) corrupted itself as i was clean flashing Slim and i had no data cable to adb or transfer the file to internal memory)

Luckily i managed to fix the partition issues with my external card with TWRP, and then....

TWRP in Slim doesnt allow you (CWM does) to flash anything via OTG USB (where my backup zips are), it wont even mount the drive in file manager

But you can mount it manually, by going to the advanced menu, then terminal (from memory you have to hit Select - doesnt matter what path is displayed), then:

mount -t vfat /dev/block/sg0 /usbdisk (obviously the key was in fat32 format)

This still wont let you use the usbdisk via Install Zip menu entry, but you can use the File Manager to copy files from the OTG USB key (/usbdisk) to another location (internal or external storage) and then install from there.

Im now back on Slim + DorimanX after my playtime with Gustavo_s's kernel.

[MENTION=1670821]cybernetus[/MENTION]: newest kernel working as stable as can be, all usual uv etc tweaks enabled.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] JavaScout:
[MENTION=962829]stylemessiah[/MENTION] , just curious : did you have a problem with zip signature verification, back on gustavo_s? I mean during the flashing process? I think gustavo_s twrp has some defect, but noone confirms that, except for me. Sorry for OT.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] stylemessiah:
No experience like that with Gustavo_s' recovery at all, sorry, i used the CWM version...i have never liked TWRP over CWM - CWM was the first recovery i ever used, and just prefer it

The TWRP reocvery i reference above was in SlimSabers TWRP

Upgrade problem

I flashed my 1202 to 1221 and replaced the old gapps I had with Slim_mini_gapps.4.4.4.build.8.x-385.

Should I flash another gapps? If yes, where can I find it?

There really isnt a need to flash new gapps when you update the ROM, any google apps will just update from the Play Store....

[MENTION=1228651]fusionjack[/MENTION] I'm approaching to flash your rom, I've just a simple question : which is the default compiler, Dalvik or ART?

If the first, you suggest me to flash the zip enabler for ART at the end of the process of flashing, before the first boot?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Cirra92:
Dalvik is default compiler in all KK roms. Just flash and boot right away :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] stylemessiah:
As [MENTION=5070317]Cirra92[/MENTION] says, Dalvik is the default. If you want to use ART, then you can change to ART via Developer Options, find Runtime and change Dalvik to ART, and reboot.

Note: be aware if you plan to use any Xposed modules, they wont work on ART, only Dalvik

Personally i still use Dalvik. Not only because i use Xposed modules, but because there always seemed to be one or two apps that hated ART last time i played with it.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MatteoB92:
I knew that Dalvik is still the default compiler for 4.4 based Roms and ART only for 5.0+, as I know that Xposed is still incompatible (fortunately I don't use it) : I asked only because I had found this zip of the last year to flash forma enabling/disabling the desired and I wanted to know if this kind of mod was included or not.

However thanks for your annswers, I'll flash everything regarding ROM and GApps and changing compiler only after the first boot using the more comfortable line into Developer Options, and so increase speed and smoothness :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Cirra92:
Well in my case, just FYI dalvik is noticeably smoother and faster than ART, from the very first KK build up to this one. I haven't figured out why, even after quite a few clean flashes, but my guess is maybe because of old cpu set, according to Dorimanx kernel Cpu set 2 if I remember. Anyway try it out, might be the same case, might not :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MatteoB92:
I consider your opinion :)

The point is that I must root, update modem, full wipe, install this Rom and Gapps, flash Gustavo's kernel for overclock, test frequencies and setup apps of I9100 my girlfriend's within tomorrow morning, so I hoped to have clear ideas directly from the beginning to reach maximum performances..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Cirra92:
If you are familiar enough with all of that, you can do it in specified time :) Put all needed files in internal, root via Odin, reboot to recovery, flash KK recovery, and after that you know what to do :) As a general advice, dalvik IMHO would do the job quite fine, and even Gustavo's kernel without OC is more than fast. If you leave stock partition sizes, better stay with dalvik, otherwise phone will quickly ran out of space.

Sorry for OT everyone :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] m1trand1r:
Root via ODIN? Since when ?

I must be lost...as I always used philz kernel to root...and/or dorimanx via ODIN<---the only way I know to root via ODIN as dorimanx have made .tar balls for ODIN....other than that...ODIN is useless imo...except for rescuing bricked device :)
