If you want a weather widget, try this one https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.devexpert.weather&hl=en

It has home-screen widgets only.I use it , it only use 3% battery in 3.5 Days and there is no clock freeze - it looks and works like a dream. :)

[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] jri14:
Tried the latest build (20140910) after full wipe and experienced the same issue: I set the max freq to 800/400MHz; turn the cpu frequency display on and make a phone call. At some point during the call the the freq reaches 1000MHz and the performance tab (after refreshing it) displays that the defined maximal frequency has been reset to 1000.

Obviously scaling_max_freq has been modified every time accordingly, first to 800/400 (when I set it under the performance tab) then to 1000 (the latter without my intervention!).

I may ask for some help at this point: Would you please let me know if there is any tool that allows me to monitor which process is modifying scaling_max_freq in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ ?

(Also: It could as well happen that the fact that the CPU power saving feature does not work on my phone is related to this issue. Can you please confirm that the CPU power saving mode works on Omni - so that this is something related to my particular phone?)

Thanks!!
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] golden-guy:
According to your last post you are still on 20140822, so you might want to consider updating to the latest release then, mate ;)
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] golden-guy:
Have you checked if both the file and its timestamp have indeed been updated? Since I am not able to reproduce this issue on my device, I'd assume it is likely related to your setup. Sounds like some performance app is interfering here, since no stock (that is, which is part of the ROM) tool does that afaik - apart from Omni performance tool.

Have you fixed unplayable youtube?
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] iwogu:
YouTube App

May you can install the latest youtube App and test it by yourselve? Keep us informed if it works ;)

Otherwise you have to try the solution which was already explained here in the Thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=55324445&postcount=1632
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] jri14:
Ah! That's interesting: when the CPU max freq is automatically reset the timestamp of scaling_max_freq is NOT updated but its contents do get updated (from "800000" to "1000000"). In contrast, when I set it myself at the performance tab, both contents and timestamp get updated.

One more detail, in case it helps: if I set the permissions of scaling_max_freq to 444 (read-only, including system), it still gets automatically updated (contents only), but, as expected, I cannot manually set the CPU max freq it anymore under the performance tab.

I hope that gives you a hint of what might be going on! (Btw, the baseband is I8190XXANA2, but that should not make the difference, should it?)

Thanks Golden!

Hey guys :) Yesterday my phone charging somehow got broken and my phone is rebooting whenever I put it to charge, after reboot saying it is charging when it is not, even if I remove the cable it still shows as charging.

As this makes this impossible for me to use my phone in the normal way I thought about it and decided to buy the Galaxy S4 Mini.

I appreciate a lot all the wonderful work you (golden-guy and all others) are doing for this device, and I just wanted to leave a big THANK YOU too all the amazing developers making this device so awesome.

So this is goodbye for me guys :) again, thank you for everything!

[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] golden-guy:
[MENTION=4658366]joelalmeidaptg[/MENTION], I guess you did try re-flashing just in case?

[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] jri14:
Getting closer: maximal and minimal CPU frequency are reset to 1000/200 after waking up from suspended mode while another application is running in the background (Phone, Apollo music, TuneIn radio... ). The timestamps of scaling_max_freq and scaling_min_freq are NOT updated. (And, as expected it does not depend on the baseband.)

I hope it helps! Any thought? (or anything I can do to help?)
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] albertusac:
Try using Andi's kernel.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] jri14:
Getting even closer: CPU freq settings are reset to maximal (1000/200) when it goes into suspend mode (screen off) and an application prevents it from going into deep sleep - hence no power saving anymore. I had thought it was when the phone woke up, but I've done the test checking the time the CPU stays at each frequency... - it required a bit of time to be sure!.

I wonder whether it is choosing the wrong governor settings (or wrong governor altogether) when the screen is off?
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] albertusac:
Unfortunately I get clock freeze today, FYI I'm using Andi's kernel.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] golden-guy:
Make sure you are on the latest release (20140910) and also switch both auto-time and auto-timezone back on.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] golden-guy:
Have you also tried with interactive governor?
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] albertusac:
I've done it all.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] jri14:
Yes, I've tried Interactive and all other governors available by the kernel (including Powersave): it does not depend on the governor (I had also thought at the beginning it would, but it doesn't). Everything works fine, though, if there is no application that prevents the phone from deep-sleeping.

I've noticed it takes some seconds to reset the max/min CPU freq settings after the screen has been turned off. If I resume very quickly (in the first 3-4 seconds), these settings are not modified.

I've tried with the 20140910 build with built-in kernel and also the previous one with built-in kernel and [MENTION=5384881]Fred6681[/MENTION]'s kernel (20140823).

Please let me know if I can do any other test to help diagnose it.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] golden-guy:
What exactly has happened for you mate? :confused:

Unless the status bar clock and / or the clock widget on the home screen freezes permanently there's no issue.

What could happen, is that the clock on the lock screen sometimes visibly updates just when the screen has turned on. But this is completely ok, and due to Android's internal memory management which caused the lock screen widget to be suspended.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] jstath1972:
Try this please: If you got a memory cleaner app have to uninstall it (trust me you don't need it), reboot and everything is going to be ok.

It works for me. :good:

Is NITZ enabled in your network? Would be good to know that.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Balino:
Where can I check it?

I did a little research on google and it seems that in Italy it is not implemented by our operators
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] jstath1972:
NITZ is supported by Wind in Italy: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NITZ
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] golden-guy:
Easy way to check:

1. Untick auto time

2. Change the time some hours back

3. Reboot with wifi and data switched off

4. Once rebooted (with wifi / data still switched off), enable Automatic time and - voilà: if it re-sets, you're set ;)

In my next update (most likely next weekend) I will amend this sync patch for NITZ-enabled networks.
[Galaxy S III Mini Original Android Development] Balino:
I can confirm Wind-Italy support nitz, it re-setted my time when I re-enabled autotime with data/wifi disabled.

CPU setting to wrong frequencies

Finally nailed down: I've checked the kernel log (adb and dmesg) after suspending and resuming while playing music. I've found that the DVFS is setting the wrong min and max freqs in certain cases (see below the summarised output). I don't know if this has any easy solution, but it explains why battery consumption is so high during audio playing. Plus, judging by the heat the phone sometimes radiates with no apparent reason I suspect audio playing is not the only occasion when the DVFS fails.

Governor: interactive; min/max freqs: 200/800

1. No music playing: correct freq settings during suspension and after resuming

1.1 dmesg output after manually suspend:

DVFS Governor Policy set to - interactive

new min and max freqs are 800000 - 800000

DVFS Governor Policy set to - interactive

new min and max freqs are 200000 - 800000

(the two entries above are found almost consecutive in the log)

1.2 dmesg output after resume:

DVFS Governor Policy set to - interactive

new min and max freqs are 200000 - 800000

2. Music playing: incorrect freq resetting during suspension and after resuming

2.1 dmesg output after manually suspend:

DVFS Governor Policy set to - interactive

new min and max freqs are 400000 - 1000000 (Why would this be if min/max freqs are set to 200/800!?)

2.2 dmesg output after resume:

DVFS Governor Policy set to - interactive

new min and max freqs are 200000 - 1000000

CPU setting to wrong freqs while playing audio

Right, in my quest to find the culprit of excessive battery use and heating I run tests on all possible roms and kernels I had at hand and found out that the resetting to maximal CPU frequency is not an Omni thing, but rather a general bug related to all recent kernels. Hence, I've moved it to a more kenel-y thread. Please check post http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=55693187&postcount=133

New 4.4.4 build 20140927 is up!

Guys, a new Omni 4.4.4 build is up. It is built on the latest Omni code base plus the following features/fixes:

- Clock sync patch is now amended to also work in NITZ-enabled networks. (Please give your feedback on that)

- Applied YT fix by [MENTION=4400604]Meticulus[/MENTION] (Thanks! :good:), so latest YT releases are working again

- Disabled usecase governor (Again, thanks [MENTION=4400604]Meticulus[/MENTION] :)) due to issues with down-scaled cpu max_freq being dismissed

Have to say, I also like the new dynamic (color-changing) status bar, it's a new Omni feature. :D

Enjoy! :good:

Due to something foolish I've done, I've lost all AOSP source code and I need to re-sync them. It's a disaster for my 1M bandwidth:crying:

Besides, I have no idea of how to modify BoardConfig.mk because it's for CM , kernel will not be successful compiled if I don't do something on it. (This is my progress before this disaster)

I'm running since last Friday the OMNI (Clean Install, Update on 27th with latest release). Since this time the ROM is running without switching off. I do not have all the time data connection available as I have bad connection at home, so I switch between Wifi and Mobile data and during night I switch off the data Connection to save battery.

bug in CPU power-saving mode?

[MENTION=5473651]golden-guy[/MENTION]

Trying to beat [MENTION=5972779]herries[/MENTION] battery saving record, I've realised that the CPU power-saving feature does not work on my phone (does it work on yours?)

Obviously the CPU power-saving feature must modify scaling_max_freq and I've noticed that if the permissions of scaling_max_freq are set to 666 (rather than the default 664), then the CPU power-saver process is able to set the frequency to the right value when it is activated (but, unfortunately, not back when it is deactivated, so it is doing something else).

Could it be that the CPU power-saving process does not have the right permission to write system-owned files - or possibly other permission conflict? May I please ask you to give it a thought?

Thanks!!
