[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] terpin32:
Im on skynote 9.3 and this is the best rom out there hands down im using the Perseus-alpha36.3 kernel and the super high performance settings for stweaks and the battery life is insane I get the best steady signal and best 4g speeds I tell everyone to try this rom ive tried other roms and once you try another you'll see how good this rom is so that's my 2 cents I recommend giving this rom a try my friend

I know there are hundreds of these threads but i was unable to find the information that I'm looking for. But my guess is there is no real answer to my question. But i've been wrong before. Please bear with me

Here goes.

I want to know how to maximize the battery when USING the phone. I dont care about wakelocks or sleep time etc.

I am interested in getting to max out the usage time.

For example when I stream radio and surf the net and text. My phone lasts 2 hours with max birghtness. That seems really short.

- I've done all that I know to minimize power consumption with turning off sync, settings, etc.

- I have tasker starting and stopping data during screen on/off.

- I have the phone UV and under clocked.

- I Limit my phone to 3G only, with no LTE

- Also signal is not a problem since I can stream and surf without an issue. With areas with poor reception. I don’t even use the phone really

-*I also have all the chats turned on include facebook, whats app, etc. Once again, phone is awake. and I'm concerned with its ON screen usage battery time.

- I even have the second CPU setting on conservative. (when set on ondemand it drains even faster)

But during usage, its terribly short! What can I do to prolong the life?

The battery was always like this and I dont believe its defective. With regular use, checking phone (once or twice every hour) can easily last a day. But during multitasking usage I notice the drain to be 49-59% per hour according to battery spy.

I know I can uninstall battery spy/BBS to conserve battery. But I'm looking for what some are reporting (4-5 hours of on screen usage time).

Looking for some guru-like advice :) Thansk in advanced

Personally, I get the best battery life out of the stock kernel of whatever particular ROM I'm running. I stick with tw based ROMs, and I greenify almost everything! I consistently get between 5 and 6 hours of "screen on" time with the stock battery.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aybarrap1:
You never said what ROM and kernel combo you're using. I know that I get 3 to 4 hours of screen time depending on the apps used and the connections utilized (wifi, signal strength, LTE or H+, etc). 2 hours definitely sounds low though. I'm using stock debloated ROM right now and stock kernel. I have not modified voltage or clocking in any way (yet).

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mikoal:
I didnt really notice any improvements on the KT747 vs stock kernel.

I greenify everything except for the messaging apps. But then again, when my screen is on, i want ot be using those apps.

Its in my sig

Stock 4.1.1 JB

3G good signal.

Using tune in radio while texting on go sms and surfing using chrome with 7 tabs open
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DMF1977:
You're doing heavy multitasking!! It's going to eat the battery, sorry, but no one's going to post a magic "cure" to increase battery life! Buy an extended battery... Problem solved.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mikoal:
Websurf and radio or text and radio is just 2 tasks occuring.

Well I can say that running on Wifi, I can get regular battery life about 4-5 hours of use and over 20 hours of idle time.

The radio seems to be the main culprit, so the question is..... what can be done about that?

I'm asking because

- I flashed diff modems and seems to yield same results

- other S3 from my friends seems to last longer with multitasking

- signal....strong or weak seems to produce same drain.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] splxtreme:
Battery?

I've had the same problem. I couldn't get the same battery life as others I know. I always turn my GPS off if I didn't need to use it. Google now seemed to kill my battery so I stopped using it. But, the one thing I did notice is that the battery stats can be a little deceiving. If I left my phone off the charger and didn't use it for 10 hours and then started to play a game, it would look like I was getting good battery life as I would have about 60% battery left. Now if I played the game right after unplugging my phone, and then after the same 10 hours I'd be around 40%. Hopefully that makes sense.

One thing that I did do to overcome this was get an extended battery. It does add a little bulk, but now I can use my phone like I want and not have to worry about my phone dying on me at night. I can even forget to plug it in and still have battery the next day. For me I got the hyperion 4200 battery. The Zero Lemon seemed just to big for my tastes.

The other thing is also the ROM. At times I have found the same ROM but a different version exhibited different results. All ROM's offer something different so it is a give and take situation.

I hope this helped.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mikoal:
Yea my gps only turns on when my map turns on via tasker. I also dont have google now on.

Ya i understand what you mean on the percentages.

Ive seen people wiht great battery life, i wanted to try to acheive that without an extended bat. I was wondering if there was somehting that was obvious, or some radio battery drain fix. (I even tried only 3G, and still drains)

Thanks
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] splxtreme:
It's a little hard to compare, but right now I'm on a 4.3 ROM and the battery life has been exceptional. Otherwise the next one that has been closest for me in terms of battery life has been Dandroid. Also, it's hard to judge a ROM after a day.

I guess I should have asked if you have tried or have any interest in a custom ROM.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mikoal:
I tried customs like AOKP, PA, CM etc before. I dindt notice a gain in bat life.

I do enjoy's stocks stability so I would like to find a solution with my stock phone. But doesnt see like theres one....
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] splxtreme:
I've had a hard time getting really good battery life from the stock ROM. At best using greenify, I could prolong it a bit. If you are interested in a stock ROM with some tweaks, I always suggest S3Rx, or Dandroid if you want a slimmed down version without the bloat.

You can always try the power save mode as that does seem to help some, but you may experience some lag.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mikoal:
Ive frozen most of the bloat, greenified everything, plus I unclocked and under volted it, so any lag I would feel from power safe wont affect me since i believe power save throttles to 1350 ish .
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ardalan1991:
hi guys,

first, i know that the title is typical but i searched the the forum for my problem and i couldnt find any help so please hear me out!

i've been using xperia sola for over 5 months now and also been using the Ultimate V11 JB ROM, everything was ok till 2 days ago. at first it started with hanging and then restarting itself but now it still hangs at anywhere possible but it doesnt restart itself and none of the keys work so i cant hard reset it too!

i flashed it to stock rom, didnt work. tried the new NovaThor JB ROM and still nothing. the problem still exist.

now it wont turn on completely. tried with the another charger thing but i get a red light for 1 sec and then nothing.

plz help, its somewhat urgent!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ben Ling:
Now try to charge it full

If can't try to reflash the Stock ICS ROM
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] bibhu059:
only once the red light is blinking or it is continuously turning on when you are connecting the charger..if it is turning on then charge your mobile

for 3-4 hour..if that is not the case then try flashmode and fastboot mod..and when you are pressing power button are you getting any vibration??

if there above things dont work then your device may have hard bricked for which you have to take your device to service center...good luck
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ardalan1991:
the red blinking light apears everytime i connect the charger, but for 1 sec. but now when i connect it to wall charger no red light but when i connect it to pc usb the red light apears and now it stays and doesnt go away. does this mean it is charging?!

how can i fix it with flashmode or fastboot?!

i dont think it is bricked because it was working fine 2 days ago and suddenly it started restarting!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] bibhu059:
then try to enter into flash mod by pressing the vloume down button and simultaneously connect the usb to the pc...if it is working then flash the stock ftf...if by connecting the cable to the phone through pc led is showing constantly then keep it remain like that for 3-4 hours..it might get charged.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ardalan1991:
i tried the volume down thing but it didnt work, couldnt flash my phone.

i connect it to pc and the red light appears but it disappears after 10 minutes and i have to disconnect and then connect it again to get the red light!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] skyfast:
its on the OS, could happen any time. Probably bootloop.

install flashtool

download ICS stock room

click the lightning on the flashtool and locate where you have put the ICS stock room.tft

hold down volume before connecting the cable to the phone.

then wait till the stockrom flash correctly.

-waiting feedback :D
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ardalan1991:
tnx but the problem is computer doesnt recognize the phone!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] skyfast:
install first the driver, its in the flashtool :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ardalan1991:
it's not bcuz of the drivers. the phone doesnt even boot to be recognized!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] skyfast:
its easy to recognize it, hold turn-off button and volume-up until 3 vibrations = force turn-off

if already turn-off

then hold volume-down before inserting the cable.

--feedback :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ardalan1991:
none of those buttons work! i hold the power off and the volume-up button but nothing happens!

the only thing thats working in my phone is the red LED light when i connect it to charger! although it disappears after 10-15 minutes and i have to disconnect and reconnect it again!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] skyfast:
im sorry but your talking about the computer doesnt recognize your device lately, how will it recognize if it is connected to the charger and not on the PC :P
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Wind07:
DUDEEEEEEE CALM DOWN AND LISTEN. THE FIRST SIGN OF AN XDA NOOB IS TO PANICK WHEN HIS/HER PHONE IS BRICKED.

Listen to the advice of [MENTION=5406237]skyfast[/MENTION] as what he said is completely correct. Try his suggestions and update us. Flash Mode will work regardless of what state. Hold volume down then connect the cable to enter flash mode.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ardalan1991:
WHAT!?! it's like you're talking chinese to me right now!

either i connect it to wall charger or pc the only thing i get is a red stable light which disappears after 10-15 min. and computer doesnt recognize the phone when i connect it to PC!

plz read my answers too! i said it before that i tried all the combo buttons and they dont work! my phone doesnt respond to any of them. i tired the PowerOff + Volume Up, the PowerOff + Volume Down, i tired connecting it to pc with both Volume Up and Volume down but none of them work!

i know that my sola is bricked and all i need to know is the correct and step by step way to fix it. plz!

PAC users are probably having this problem when installing a fresh ROM. Unfortunately Android Keyboard (Aosp) has Stopped working.

But not anymore, I have came up with the solution to this problem.

I will not be going through how to flash the Rom or something basics like that. This tutorial is just for solving the above mentioned problem. Let's go through all the steps

1. Reboot in your recovery mode. Clockwordmod or something that you have installed.

2.Wipe data/factory reset, cache partition and dalvik cache.

3. Flash the PAC Rom.

4. Flash the Google apps if only you need to.

5. Now flash the Android keyboard 4.2, you can download it from d-h.st/36D

After flashing reboot to your PAC ROM, and now you have to disable Android Keyboard (Aosp) so that you can use new flashed Android keyboard 4.2 .

Goto Settings > Apps > All > Android Keyboard > clear the cache and tab Stop & Disable

If you need you can go to Settings > Language and Input >and set Android keyboard 4.2 as default.

But I think if you disable Android Keyboard (Aosp) the system will automatically use new keyboard.

Hello, all.

I am trying to build CM 10.2 from source from my Ubuntu machine installed on my mac book air. I am using the guidelines provided here: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Build_for_jfltevzw but unfortunately, on each of my builds the camera is broken. The camcorder works fine but the camera causes a Gallery FC. I have tried numerous fixes included restarting from scratch, but unfortunately my camera still FCs. I am wondering if someone who has successfully extracted these files can share their vendor folder with me with the necessary extracted files? Thanks in advance.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] keith.mcintyre26:
At first a while ago. It was something dumb in jfcommon that I missed and tbh I don't remember what it was. Hook it up to logcat and see what event is causing the issue.

Good to know I'm not the only one, means there is a solution. I'm building now, I'll grab a logcat and post the results in a few.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mlin:
Logcat

I'm attaching a logcat. There is an instance at line 991 where the camera died. Not sure if this is where to look and not sure how to interpret a lot of it.

Can someone take a look at this and see if there is anything glaring that sticks out as causing my camera to crash on my builds of CM 10.2? I have looked through it and while I'm trying to get a handle on what's causing the issue I just can't figured it out with my limited knowledge.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] basschica:
Is there a way to disable the charging indicator light? It is BLINDING in the dark. The green is a lot worse than the orange too. I know you can change when the light is enabled for notifications like mail/calendar/etc, but I can't find a setting for the charging.

I've got a status bar and a battery widget to see if it's charging. I don't need an LED that blinds me.

=|
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] mzrdisi:
I don't know what to tell you, but if that light blinds you, you must have the night vision of a cat. I can't imagine driving down the road at night with your eyes. On that note, good luck to you.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] basschica:
Haha I had an EVO I think it was at one point that was the same way. I have great night vision...and I don't eat *that* many carrots, so I'm not sure. I'm not usually overly sensitive, but I swear that little pin sized light is ridiculous bright.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] IceDragon59:
You're correct, that light is extremely bright, especially as green. I put my phone on the charger last night, and it finished charging while I was laying in bed but not asleep, and when the green came on, it was like night turned into day. The ceiling lit up like a flashlight was aimed at it. When I get a notification and don't feel/hear the vibrate/noise, the light is quite capable of letting me know I get one.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] basschica:
I just submitted a "support" e-mail to HTC and I'm sure they'll say that you can't disable it because people need to know if their phone/charger aren't working. Yeah, that's what the notification bar and widgets are for if you want them. I had to root an EVO to disable the light on that one too, which is entirely lame. I mentioned that the e911 GPS indicator is both unnessary and annoying as well. This is the kind of stuff that drives me to root a phone (not that I can unlock it at the moment because I didnt' get my phone before they locked down the htc dev site), but once there's a root option for me and if I can configure these...I'll do it for that sole purpose.

Ugh.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] basschica:
Ok, so their response from support was to use "Light Manager" which doesn't work (at least non-rooted) as far as I can tell.

Response from them:

I totally understand where you are coming from on this, as I know how important is to have a phone that fully meets your needs.

In this case, you can use a 3rd party application, which will disable this feature from your device. You can check them at google play store.

https://play.google.com/store/search?q=light manager

I recommend you verify other user’s comments and rating, that way you choose the best option for your requirement. Please keep in mind that HTC does not support or warranty 3rd party hardware or software and its usage is at your discretion.

I apologize for any inconveniences you may have experience, our main goal is to provide you with the greatest devices and an spectacular HTC experience. I will address your suggestions to the proper department; I can not assure you it will be implemented however we take them to account and appreciate the time you took to contact us.

I've just purchased a P6 and am very happy with it. Was a little apprehensive as some reviews flagged performance and battery issues. However so far for most tasks it seems as good as the Galaxy S3 which I use to own.

Anyway I has anyone noticed higher clock frequencies seem to be under utilised? Some games such as Rip Tide 2 slow down at times. But when using CPU Spy it shows very little activity above 1GHz. I'm sure frame rate would improve if higher clock frequencies were used. I'm running B111 firmware.

I've noticed the same :o Even with "Normal" Power saving mode the phone uses mostly 1ghz frequency. This is quite annoying...
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] JackHanAnLG:
This is more then likely because it has a heat threshold, as soon as it gets to a certain temperature, it will lower the clock speed of both the CPU and GPU
