1. Just set 2g only - I'll try tomorrow for the whole day

2. Only on data traffic, Bluetooth, WiFi , GPS, etc when need. - I use Juice Defender to keep data off when not needed. I have a Tasker profile to turn off Bluetooth when battery level is below 33%

3. Don't use auto sync. - I don't for most apps, but I keep it on for whatsapp and a few other. Nevertheless, Juice Defender kicks in to keep data off for an hour.

4. Set brightness around 30%. - Mine is around 25% and automatic, I guess.

5. Don't use live wallpaper. - I don't

6. Use dark static wallpaper. - I do

7. Airplane mode on sleeping time night. - I charge my phone at night :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MegaSharkXDA:
Here's something that is strange as well...

. Standard Android battery menu tells me that my phone is awake most of the time (see 1st screenshot...)

. ... but WakeLock detector tells me that my phone is awake only 11% of the time (see 2nd screenshot)

So, which one is to believe?

If it is Wakelock detector, I wouldn't have a massive gain in battery life anyway. Am I correct?

This would corroborate the fact that my battery time is not lousy at the moment - I still have 59% with ~12h of usage - but it just isn't great.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mr.AnakinSkywalker:
The first one is accurate.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MegaSharkXDA:
So what's the point of using wakelock detector?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mr.AnakinSkywalker:
My advice, and this is just my advice. Don't use it.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] arebydde:
Battery drain fast on firmware .211 so i use .204

How is it compared to FXP233 with the kernel 3.4?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MegaSharkXDA:
SO how would I check wakelocks?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mr.AnakinSkywalker:
Since you asked, I recommend this one : BetterBatteryStats
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MegaSharkXDA:
LOL... used that before. Check first post:

"On the battery menu, when I click on Android System, I get:

CPU total: 4m21s

Keep awake: 5h48m36s

The keep awake time seems huge!

So, I've installed BetterBatteryStats in order to find the main battery suckers included in "Android System". But BetterBatteryStats tells me that the phone is in deep sleep most of the time."
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mr.AnakinSkywalker:
Ok, just checked the first post. I guess you should use this : http://www.dubattery.com/
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MegaSharkXDA:
I'll take a look at that dubattery app when I have finished my tests (just so I use exactly the same app for the sake of comparison...)

So yesterday I was on 2G for the whole day. Of course battery life has improved, just as expected... but all those wakelocks persisted. So what is this telling us? That these wake locks are NOT caused by Fast Dormancy (which applies to 3G only) and therefore are being caused by something else.

Here are the screenshots for yesterday. I had bluetooth on the whole time, so once again I'm not complaining on battery life really (assuming linear usage I would have been able to easily squeeze 2-3 days of usage on 2G with bluetooth on!). I just want to figure out what these wakelocks are really.

Today I'm trying with 3G and no bluetooth to see what happens.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MegaSharkXDA:
Here are the screenshots for yesterday's test (3G and no bluetooth). There are still a lot of wakelocks.

So, what have we learnt so far about these com.sonyericsscon.android.wakelock wakelocks?

. They are not caused by 3G

. They are not caused by bluetooth

. They not caused by Wi-Fi (i kept Wi-Fi off)

So... it must be an app running... but which one?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] nzkiwiman:
Hi all

Have owned a X5 (U8000) since April 2011. In December 2011 I was introduced to rooting and custom ROMs via a friend

He rooted the phone and installed MIUI 1.11.25 - which has worked well, with two issues Green Lines in standard YouTube Playback and not being able to WiFi Hot Spot.

Today after many months of procrastination I purchased ROM Manager 5.5.2.8 and installed MIUI 2.12.20.

The two problems I have still remain sadly and I have introduced a third - the 'bold' headers in ROM Manager are missing and I can only see the words below.

Wondering if anyone knows a fix for above issues - have read all the threads I can find and see nothing mentioning these issues (the WiFi Hot Spot was fixed in the release just after MIUI 1.11.25).

The next question - I want to try CM10.1 which requires the official 2.3.5 kernel (?) - I am having trouble locating a mirror that still works.

Thanks all

[Other Tools & General Discussion] cyberguru:
Hi all,

I am trying to write an app that requires the Android permission WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS which I know is only granted to system apps so I want to have my app push a second apk to /system/app and install after a reboot (via "su" so I understand device will need to be rooted). I can get the apk into /system/app and install fine. Then I use my first app to send messages to the helper that can use

Settings.Secure.putInt()

because the helper is a system app, which is how I imagine the excellent app Secure Settings does it.

The problem I have is that when the helper tries to call

Settings.Secure.putInt()

it crashes and I see logs saying the permission WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS is not being given to my app (the helper).

Is it correct that only apk's signed with the system keys can have this permission? If I manage to sign my apk with these keys, will it work on any device from any manufacturer?

I'd love to know how Secure Settings does it and I've asked the devs, but I understand they wont want to give too much away.

Thanks

Hi,

I recently had a problem with my XDA2s. I though I'd post what happened here so people could a) Perhaps explain to me what the hell happened, b) know what to do if they have a similar problem.

I took my O2 XDA2s out of my pocket and it wouldn't turn on. My immediate reaction was to hard reset it. This also had no effect. I even tried entering boot loader mode out of sheer desperation. It appeared it was D E A D.

I tried putting it on charge and it still would not turn on. Fearing I was in for a trip to my local O2 shop and the usual "umm....ahh....thats strange....replacement time will be 3-4 working years" etc. I started to compose an Email to O2 support. I had left the device on charge.

Low and behold after 5 minutes the device pinged at me. i looked over to see and it had come back on. It had hard reset. It seems something had caused both batterys to *Completely* Discharge. It took 5 mins of charging just to get enough power to come on (is my best guess).

Has anyone had this problem? Can anyone explain why? It's charging now very very slowly. Hopefully when its charged it will be ok.

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] mikeycrawford:
Had the same thing on my XDA2. Thought the thing was knackered but it cam back to life after a few minutes on charge. I've noticed that my XDA2 will not switch off by itself when set to do so ("Turn off device if not used for" and I have it on 2 minutes). The thing just doesn't switch off :(

The setting to lower the backlight works fine, as does the Alarm in the morning so I think the timer is working.

Any clues anyone?
[Android Apps and Games] GoodAppsTeam:
ABOUT

Mobile application LockScreen One Touch for all is unique in combining the functions of protection the access (Security) and fast access to the integrated applications, calls (QuickLink). Typically, applications having function QuickLink and Security, provide their separate use - first choice of integrated application, and then type the password, or vice versa. While our software allows you to combine these functions into one.

With just one touch of the unlocking screen, LockScreen will allow you to unlock your phone and enable you too:

•	Open any app on your phone;

•	Call any one of your 6 favourite numbers;

•	Dial the last number;

•	View your contacts list;

•	View your recent calls log.

FEATURES

Standard features:

•	Adding any installed application icons on the LockScreen;

•	Protection from removal / disabling malicious programs;

•	Placement of any widget with a maximum size of 4x2 tile on the screen;

•	The status bar is modified by our designer;

•	Integrated wallpaper from the collection;

•	Customise backgrounds of drop icons.

When you activate premium options you get additional features such as:

•	Flashlight;

•	Install additional themes to unlocking screen;

•	Disable the ads.

Video

[YOUTUBE]N5Bd5NZq-c4[/YOUTUBE]

IMPORTANT

Security: The password can be very simple from 2 icons to as many as you would like. After your password was entered your finger goes to a program icon, desktop icon or a phone function icon to start it. This movement makes your password appear differently every time you use different function and therefore indistinguishable for an outside viewer.

Speed: Access to any application or window is quicker than using the standard unlock procedure.

Time: You save 100 minutes or more every month on unlocking your phone with this app (assuming economy of 5+ seconds comparing to each time you enter 4 digits password, open your phone, go to favourites and call one of the favourite numbers).

Convenience: This app makes it easy to enter your password and use your phone. Entering the password will now be an enjoyable experience!

Hello,

THX. Nice soft.

I am using this with HTC Sense. (HTC one X)

I als use a VPN so i have to unlock with a pattern, pin or password.

The first times i unlock the screen with this soft it bypasses the pattern screen.

After a while it only passes the lockscreen and i have to unlock with the additional pattern.

What could be wrong ?

Restarting my phone solves it, again for a while.

[Android Apps and Games] ziou1908:
just great :good: thank you :good:
[Android Apps and Games] GoodAppsTeam:
Thanks for your good comment

To provide a high level of security original status bar was disabled. The original status bar allows you to go into the notifications center where you can get into the phone and bypass the protection.

Also in LockScreen you can swipe on the status bar to enable a flashlight, if you buy a premium option.
[Android Apps and Games] GoodAppsTeam:
Can you configure a VPN soft to save the password for the network and disable the password on lock screen to enter the phone?

If you can do it, then you will enter a password to access the phone only once in program LockScreen.

What program do you use for VPN?
[Android Apps and Games] GodzZz:
mhm, yeah the security point is a good point ;)

The main reason I want the "original" is for adjusting the brightness. Maybe this would be a better solution than starting the flashlight? Or add the possibility to change this in the settings.

I had it once, that the flashlight startet glowing in my pocket for at least 30 minutes. (But not with your app)
[Android Apps and Games] GoodAppsTeam:
From which app icon you release your finger so this app is run.

In one action:

1. Enter the password (don’t release of your finger)

2. Pass a finger over a screen to the app icon you want to run (don’t release of your finger)

3. Release your finger - the program will start

If you want to get into the phone's menu - stage 3 Release your finger on the icon with the keyhole.

and one more thing, it's when i try to wake the phone by clicking the homa button sometimes it shows that screen "secured by Lockscreen" and it stays there till the timeout of the lockscreen ends.

so here is my idea : maybe you can add the option to consider (set) the locker as default launcher so this will not happen anymore (thing that most lockers do)

that's just an idea :)

I love the idea. The concept. The functionality itself. This is an app I'd love to stick to forever and pay for the premium version.

But... the current version (1.13) isn't too high quality.

The app doesn't follow Holo designing rules, which makes it stand out from the rest of my mobile phone

It's also laggy and not too fast (OK, it's still early in the development I guess)

The app replaces your default notification bar with one of its one

It doesn't feel like being a part of the operating system given the speed and overall look; compare it to Nova Launcher for instance

It's 50/50: the app either remembers your password or not, there's nothing certain in this area; it might stop working just out of the blue

Adding a new password doesn't always work: you can swipe your way through the lines and the app takes only, for instance, 65 % of your trace, making your password something it wasn't meant to be

The menu doesn't follow rules of any possible logic

The app adds a notification icon to your notification bar and notification drawer... for what reason? How can I get it off? --can be disabled from the app settings of the OS; this should be implemented into the app itself

Until these flaws are fixed, I won't be using it.

I'm running an AOSP based ROM on my HTC One.

:silly:
