Regarding issues with wakelock I tried several things and one more apart from described above is to:

1. Go to settings

2. Data usage

3. Find google services and press on them

4. Scroll down and mark restrict background data usage.

Worked like charm for me. Simple and effective.

Other option is to play with disable services app or startup manager app and untick few boxes there, again in services as mentioned few posts ago.

I did both and so far had 40% battery drop within 5h, moderate usage, pretty damn good :)

Other option is Wakelock app is good option to and someone mentioned deep sleep battery saver app.

I just installed a new build (based on source from 20140704) on my Ray/Urushi, and found camera is not working after installing ("camera stopped"). Fix: open gallery first, then camera works again.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] beavermml:
it may be a placebo ( atleast for me ) but disabling the ZRAM ( via init.d script ) really makes the phone fly more..

thx Mike for another great release :)

About battery and Wi-Fi

Hi guys!

I need your opinion... Yesterday I did a clean install of the latest nightly... It is the first ION version I try out... But this is not the point...

I read a lot about deep sleep issues and I waited for this relsease which was supposed to fix them... and in fact it seems okay, it seems to sleep properly... now, it happens that I almost never used Wi-Fi since I am on CM11 (some months ago I was still on stock based ICS), but just mobile data...

The problem is: I do get the 1% per hour battery drain reported by other users when the phone is idle, but only if I choose Wi-Fi to be disabled during sleep... otherwise the battery drain goes dramatically up, not as much as when it is awake, but not very far from that... Then I wonder: is that any way normal that Wi-Fi by itself causes the battery to go down so fast?

Thanks

Hi there,

I found a bug (latest nightly for coconut).

Sometimes, if u want to take a photo, the picture can't be saved - user see just a freezed picture and i also hear sound of moving camera (repeat after couple of seconds).

After reboot - everything is ok.

Here is a logcat. (I think, it starts on 7655 line).

Please, check this :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Tomi_Ohl:
Yes, it happened for me too on mango, but after unticking noice suspression, everything's fine.

I'm using 06.20. build and I used soft reboot in xposed several times and I didn't have any FC's. So, probably you won't have it on 07.03. build neither.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] RaXelliX:
Question to 20140703 users:

Does hot reboot still cause Media Storage stopped working error?

I would really love to use hot reboot after xposed module update and not do a full reboot.

---------- Post added at 08:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:59 PM ----------

Ok sounds good. Has anyone used ART instead of Dalvik on a daily basis?

Last time i switched it on it reverted to dalvik after reboot.

That was on 20140121 build. Currently im on 20140512 and pondering wherter to upgrade or wait for next build.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Mardon:
If you use xposed you cabt use art!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] pteek:
I use art as a daily driver with mounts2sd. Everything works perfectly.

I have a 2.7 GB second ext3 partition. Every thing except app data is moved to external SD.

I don't use exposed framework.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] puiatmp:
Same problem

I have the same problem on my camera... When push camera button the screen freeze and camera stops.... Dont work for me open galley first...

Regards.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] datumdatzgr:
in Release changes it is written that:

"Wifi drops wont be fixed unless some miracle happens"

So disappointing... With Latest nightly, this rom is the best in terms of performance, battery among all gb, ics, jb roms.

EDIT: It may be a very very very noob question but i wonder if wifi drop issue can be related to undervolted wifi in 3.4 kernel?

Drops occur mainly if the wifi is forced to work at max rate(when pressed install in play store or when started loading page in browser) according to my observations. So again maybe very noob of me but couldn't we resolve this issue by limiting wifi load(or rate)?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] samuelms:

How do I change the font to normal in trebuchet? It is condensed by default and I don't like it.

It was used to be in the trebuchet settings but those are not available since CM11 M7. I am on 20140703. Dirty flash from 20140611.

Android L developer preview has been released. Very smooth Ui. We are waiting for that build. Thanks in advance. :cool::cool:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Headhunter.242:
Ok, I understand that I'm not the only one who has this problem.

But this is another lost feature of our phone!

I've have never had problems with it since I bought my phone and I suppose this feature was working until the last release of CM11 I installed: 20140604.

I jumped directly to this one 20140703 and everything seems to be working fine except it!

And i says that I've no strange batterydrain, no wifi drops, no fc, etc...

Just to let you know I'm using the baseband 85.

So I would like to know what Mike knows about this problem!

Disabling it is not a fix, is only a workaround, until somebody says this is another not working feature in the new kernel/version.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] AndStuff:
About Gapps and our rom

Im thinking about losing Gapps all together.

I tried some flashable zips i found, but none seems of get rid of everything. Some did nothing at all, best i found left the Play store inside.

Do we have to do something special to completely remove Gapps? I would hate to do a complete fresh install just to remove Gapps:rolleyes:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] amishxda:
First uninstall whatever Google apps are in /data partition and also "clear data" of all Gapps

For some option will be "Uninstall" and for some option will be "Uninstall updates"

Then go remove file /system/addon.d/70-gapps.sh

Now, reflash just CM ROM without flashing GApps

Do NOT clean data. (do this only if you want fresh install)

But remember to clean cache and dalvik cache

seriously?

As you said Its a developer preview!!!! :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes: It gives issues on Nexus 5..what are you expecting for our devices?? :eek::eek:

Let mike work patiently on getting a fully working build of KK with the ION kernel...:fingers-crossed:

Android L is not the priority here..and our devices probably wont get it..

I don't mean to be rude to you, but its irritating to see people asking for Android L when [MENTION=3839575]mikeioannina[/MENTION] is working his ass off to get KK working on our old devices..i can only imagine how irritated he feels..

I don't know how long you've been using an 2011 device, but let me tell you..we had quite a lot of devs..everyone abandoned this series of devices...its mike alone who does it all..and thanks to his sources..and some other devs like [MENTION=4862164]Langes[/MENTION], [MENTION=5036857]vishal_android freak[/MENTION] , we have different STABLE KK based ROMs..

I apologize to the mods for going OT, and also to you, because i think i was rude...but i needed to make a point here..:):angel:

Yes, we probably won't get it...unless we get a working INT2EXT script..:)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] T3sla:
Sorry for the off topic comment but i can't understand some things...how can people ask for something that is free?If they give it to you just say thanks, if not be satisfied with what you have.They all should be happy running kitkat on a phone that started with gingerbread.Also the point is not to run the latest android version but one as possible stable.Don't put pressure on devs, they are not here to serve you.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Rrreutel:
After some more testing, "open Gallery first" doesn't work reliably for me either to fix camera. Apart from that, when it works, it only works to enable preview, after taking a photo, camera seems to get stuck, preview freezes (yet the picture still rotates when rotating the camera). No photo is saved. Will try to product some logs and report an issue if it's not already in the bugtracker.

Just tried ART and u see the Awesome effect on RAM after switched to ART

And the result is without Greenify OR Manually FC apps it by default.

U can see FB is also running with 50 mb memory and still 180 mb memory free..

I think its the major difference I personally experienced after the stable 4.4.4 this build.

Thanks mike and other devs who working hard for this unusual work :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Mardon:
50MB on ART? Only 35MB on Dalvik!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] SurajH:
Ya Its take more ram per app when using but it will go in cache memory after 5-10 min and takes only 5-10mb for notifications of msg only:cyclops:

Mine coconut smoother than ever now on ART:D

without any Greenify like apps ;) And in case u noticed lag or dont want to run apps behind simply use Long Back to kill option in Developer mode.

I Think its time to switched to ART now:cowboy:

Have Fun:D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] deccan451:
Yeah that's great anyhow we need to give ART one choice because next version is totally art dependent ... If user experience is good we can dream about next version on 2011 devices if not just stick to dalvik kk it was way stable.. ?

Art in l is different from experimental art in KitKat.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] pepitoff:

Any one have this problem too?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] deccan451:
On my hallon no such noises .. I think other person using landphone or Skype voice call credits something like that.. On hallon I'm having problems with hangout video chart force closes and Skype having frame cuts ?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mikeioannina:
Keep in mind that android development doesn't happen only on AOSP but also internally in google. So, we can't know what the next version will bring.

ART is experimental in kitkat and will remain as experimental. Don't waste your time

I did a fresh install, ie flash boot.img, format system, data and cache, reset factory, flash the zip file than banks gapps 4.4.4 minimal

dmesg shows a lot of consecutive wakelocks caused by rpcrotuer_smd_xprt (followed by) mmc1_detect, after 20 consecutive wakelocks, suspend_backoff is called

I switched back to 20140611 build, and the problem is gone.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] johnny.tifosi:
Lots of people are writing about bad battery life. I also had the suspend_backoff wakelock maybe 2 or 3 times, but it stopped after reboot. In general, when idle during night (only GSM enabled) the phone has 99,5% deep sleep time and 0,5%/h drain. That's excellent and similar to stock ROMs.

Don't uninstall Greenify, just disable auto hibernation (and hibernate apps manually- I prefer the one click hibernation widget). And you can allways uninstall google now (I use an old gsearch version from ics wich does not have battery drain and does not run in background;))

Whatever was causing suspend_backoff wakelock in my phone is gone. I don't why or how. I tried disabling all the google play services, BT services and even sms push service one by one to see if I could find what was causing the wakelock but no matter what I did it would reappear after a reboot. Tried messing with performance settings, it didn't help also. And now, for the last 24 hours, that wakelock is gone. I tried charging, rebooting, enabling/disabling all the services again just to see if it would appear again but it hasn't. I've even set my governor to ondemand and ticked apply at boot but the wakelock is not appearing. I'll report back if anything changes.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Kong2000:
I wouldn't call it zero progress. BT wakelock is still there, but BT works better than ever before. It (re)connects faster and more reliable with my Kenwood car radio. Thanks for that!

READ THIS, WHO HAVE BATTERY DRAIN!

1. Turn off your Xperia phone

4. Press power button and boot into system

5. Be happy now, your deepsleep will work AGAIN!

Guys, please read THIS post, and try to do this, it fix 100% deepsleep problem (till reboot)

If you have a battery drain after phone reboot, repeat the steps and that will solve your problems.
