[Galaxy S II Android Development] Chairmansaab:
Yes my battery is old, It is about 3 year old. It seems like it is 1100 to 1200Mah now instead of 1650Mah because it takes around 100 minutes to charge instead of 150-170minutes. (Going by 1650mah/650current) I also charge my phone when powered-off so it's getting maximum current and efficiency.

But again if my battery is actually let's say 1100mah it should last more than 2.5hours of screen on time. But it last only 100 minutes, which means it discharging at same rate it charges! Discharge rate - 600ma(estimate) versus charging rate 650ma.You get this type of discharge rate while gaming not casual stuff!

Screen brightness- Lowest possible

Wifi-on

Airplane mode - on

Sync - off

GPS-off

Almost everything is off which otherwise will use battery, Display is just using more than normal on KITKAT! 70-75% versus 30-40% on gingerbread, get my point ?

Now on Gingerbread it's discharging at around 260-300mah which translates to 4 hours of screen-on time. Which is exactly what i'm getting.

So real question is why my battery is discharging faster than normal when i'm doing nothing ? My conclusion is Display is sucking more battery than it should!

omni version

uploading v6.4...

no need mate. included in v6.4

ok i'll try it

can you share the link of that game?

yes omni version. no one random reboot here using neat kernel :confused:

have you tried another genuine samsung battery? or another kitkat rom?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] edvinb:
Hey man just buy this battery (or lots of them). I bought 2 + wall charger, suits me well. It's genuine (that looks to be true). http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/400726590753

Ok waiting for new ROM to be uploaded, and will try Apolo omni kernel (my GF also complains to be about battery life :D with 6.0)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Chairmansaab:
No sir, i haven't tried any other samsung battery cause i don't have spare available, my current one is genuine supplied with handset.

I've tried numerous kitkat roms including resscursion(?) remix, omnirom, slimsaber, cyanogen nightly, neatrom 4.4.3 and now neatrom 4.4.4.

Problem presists on all kitkat roms i've tried. But not on jellybean,ICS and GB. I've also flashed apollo and gustavo kernals but same thing.

Screen on time i get with certain android versions- CPU hovers around 200mhz-800mhz most of time (WiFi on always)( i do not game)

GB - 230-250 minutes

ICS - 180-200 minutes

JB - 170 - 200 minutes

Kitkat - 100 minutes.

Phone stays cool all the time so overheating can be discounted. I guess it has to do with Display itself because screen is buttery smooth on kitkat roms hence twice the power usuage (i might be wrong).

I'm losing 1%percent every minute on kitkat roms when screen is on! i lose just 4% over 8 hours/night with cell radio on. So it's definitely the damn Display!! I'm 100% sure!

I've just flashed it and first issue appeared - where is calendar app + widget?? This is my business phone and calendar with meetings is one of the most important app I need ;)

Hi Sale,

are you sure that OMNI version should be used? It says in OP (of Apolo) that CM has to be used when Root is included in ROM, as you have it. Omni should only be used if SuperSU is needed for Root seperately.

I just tried Omni version and Root access is gone.....with CM version it worked.

Contacts: add TRDS resources for menu expander icons

Dialer : Don't hold on to views used in listviews

what do they mean?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sertahn:
You may right.

My S2 is some 3 years old. A month ago I bought a new (samsung made original) 1650 battery. It is new as well as fresh, because printed product date on the battery is Feb.2014.

I've tried many Kitkat versions so far, just like you. I compared Neat Rom's Samsung Based one (which I am currently using) with the Neat Rom AOSP Kitkat version.

First, I 100% charged battery at 12:00 midnight. From midnight till morning 7:00 AM battery descended to 98% with Neat Samsung Based (4.1.2); but it is 93% with Neat AOSP Kitkat. All settings are same. Only GSM open, others closed during this test (wifi, bt, gps, 2g/3g)

I think that this situation is about Kitkat's nature itself. There is something eats battery that I don't know.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Troubadour666:
Thanksssssssss :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Chairmansaab:
I think TDRS mean The real dark slim feature added in the rom. So maybe TRDS icons ?

I guess it won't highlight list in listviews (i'm not sure about this)

So i'm not alone! Kitkat definitely is resource hogging horse. How much battery life are you getting now with new 1650mah ? Especially the Screen-on time?

[MENTION=4792542]pilotn[/MENTION] so what it takes to optimize new drivers that are not from samsung ? Do we need source of previous drivers first as reference to make these "new AOSP based drivers" optimized ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pilotn:
The problem is not KK versus older version, but stock based versus aosp based.

Drivers are source closed on stock, and aosp one are not optimized as stock one.

For some stupid reasons, i'm unable to switch from SuperSu to superuser.

I installed cybt dorimanx v10.43 113 kernal and it installed SuperSu. Now it seems like i'm strucked with SuperSu because i can't get "CLEAN UP" to work as it should.

Whenever i click "switch Superuser app" it says reboot is required and SuperSu will exist automatically. But after rebooting, SuperSu just don't want to leave his SuperChair ?

It also says " update Superuser binary, but i don't get any option in Setings>advanced settings>Superuser to do the same. I really want to use Superuser(CWM) instead of SuperSU(chainfire) but i can't.

I didn't attempt to uninstall SuperSu cause i'll lose root.

stock kernel, no games

edit:found changelog, though i never experienced settings fc, so i wont upgrade..btw another concern, installed subway surfers, n it isnt as smooth sa it used to be on neatrom4.1.2..is it coz of lack of drivers available? i am afraid to install asphalt 8 coz if subway is lagging, asphalt wont even load i think

Use this, and enable HD from advanced options.

It's app's fault though, they removed HD option for us, the highest quality we can watch is 360p.

Luckily, you can use 3rd party apps, and enable HD again.

I fully believe that it is OK on most systems. media scanner bug always was just present on some devices.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] RedSnake9:
Hi, I just installed 6.4.1, coming from other KitKat ROMs and so far, so good. I have just a couple of issues (more like personal preferences): instead of showing a big download speed in the status bar, would it be possible to get the upload speed as well, putting them over each other with smaller fonts? I had this on my past ROM and I can't live without it, now. And something I've never seen done is basically the same thing but with the date next to the clock, that'd be smart. Last problem is the recent screen or whatever it is called, the thing that comes up when you long press the home button that lets you close apps: it needs a better look and a close all button.

As I said, it's just usage problems, but it'd be great to see them resolved.

Anyways, great ROM for now, gotta go back to installing stuff and logging into accounts... ;)

I have trouble with this ROM having a lot of hangs where the phone is unresponsive and gets real hot. Especially at random times when using the browser.

I really like KitKat. I went from Stock rom to Paranoid Android to BAM rom to plain CM, but these were not really nice for my phone; important features not working and FC's.

A selected number of people advised me not to use CyanogenMod-based roms because they don't play too nice on SGS2 i9100, and others advised me to use NeatRom because it allegedly plays especially nice on this phone.

But I guess my milage is not the same as theirs.

Any advise on getting a good working rom? I prefer not to go back to 4.1/Stock.

really weird mate. do you have any mods/kernel installed? how did you install neat? full wipe?

Make sure you FullWipe your ROM before use this ROM , Especially if you from 4.1.2 rom

1 awesome!
