battery drain

is there any solution to the ridiculous battery drain? I love this ROM but the battery drain is outlandish. With my phone docked in my car and on the charger, my phone was actually draining the battery while using the waze app or google maps for navigation and running a music app. Android Systems is definitely the culprit but I don't know how to fix it. Is it the ScreenRecorder or the C-RoM Stats draining the battery? Is it possible to stop those from running?
[Verizon LG G2] jrgilbert79:
I tried the Rom and I liked it however, the battery drain was terribad and upon attempting to flash Dr's AOSP kernel it bootlooped and it would not boot even after I restored the backup. I also couldnt get Malladus 2.0.2 to boot from a backup or dirty flashing over the restored bootloop backup. I had to do a full wipe (everything but internal storage) to fix it back which is a pain to redo all the launcher setup and program downloads. I had some programs backed up with TiBU but yet again some things dont work well with app data and its just as fast to download it if you can get back the saved cache.

I probably will try Mahdi next but I just cant get over the lack of functionality in the AOSP ROM vs. Stock though it is nice to get back nearly of GB of storage with AOSP.

^^

ROM worked great before it was recently updated to 24a....just give the Dev a lil time to work out the issue.
[Verizon LG G2] Deliberate:
im thinking im just gonna go back to 12b
[Verizon LG G2] Deliberate:
mahdi runs great! i tried using dr87's source on github to get this rom to be better but it wouldnt boot. 24a is driving me crazy!!!!! no joke!
[Verizon LG G2] Deliberate:
op updated to v6.5! i swear it doesnt seem to drain like before. watching the cpu on kernel tweaker it use to be high all the time. i dont see that now. so... high hopes for this! please though! would love some feedback! :) preferably good! :fingers-crossed:
[Verizon LG G2] ThatKidDrew:
Big thanks! Downloading and flashing now, can't wait to give feedback :beer:
[Verizon LG G2] JJT211:
Ill flash it later this evening. What was the problem?
[Verizon LG G2] kenbrownstone:
Flashing now

Horrible battery drain!
[Verizon LG G2] dbroadus2007:
I have had a few lockups, but no roaming issue. So far the KK rom is very good. I've tried quite a few and others had constant SODs and lockups, and the roaming issue was bad...this one seems to have potential. I'm going to stick with it for today and tomorrow and see what happens!

You have no roaming issues? I might give this a load

Gave this one another try with PA mini Gapps and the Docs V7 kernel.

No roaming issues or SODs so far, very impressed:thumbup:

Thanks for bringing this great ROM to our epic phone. :p:p:D

Yeah outside of the lockup in the first hour and reboot a couple of hours later, she has been running smooth as glass for me today. Will try with another kernel tomorrow just for the fun of it.

You wouldn't have a link to the gapps would you? I downloaded one but keep getting a fail when i try to flash.

Great ROM haven't had a single issue yet I installed yesterday morning. I switch ROMs like crazy but I like this one so much that I'm going to sit on this one a bit :)
[Verizon LG G2] steelersmb:
I am about to flash this now. Did you flash a different kernel?

Thanks.
[Verizon LG G2] bar_buryin:
No I never touch any kernels since I'm too scared to do so :D I just did factory reset/wipe dalvik cache, cache, data installed ROM and kk gapps. I let it install and then I rebooted twice after install was completed.
[Verizon LG G2] Jimi Mack:
I have flashed the Dr87 kernel last night and as of now no issues with it. I ran the stock kernel all through yesterday and was impressed with the battery life of it as well.

I can say after running dozens of different variations of 4.4 roms I finally found one that seems to work for me.
[Verizon LG G2] ANTLAY:
Semi dumb question.. I noticed there is a toggle under the a battery sub menu for power saver and its on by default. Should I leave it that way or tick it to off? Thanks
[Verizon LG G2] steelersmb:
Anybody else have a problem with the proximity sensor during a call? I have noticed that it doesn't turn the phone on all the time when moving it away from your ear.
[Verizon LG G2] Dick Ripple:
Most KK roms have this issue. Give it a few seconds and it will usually come on after you pull the phone away. If that doesn't work pushing the power button will.
[Verizon LG G2] Ellobo24:
Hey i just flashed this Rom on my phone..but i was womdering..can you give like the best setting for the kernel? I know each device works different but i hope can help me..also in the lockscreen..how can i dissappear the camera icon that is onthe bottom right?..Again, thanks for this rom;)
[Verizon LG G2] C.Hatfield:
Deliberate - Day 3 on C-ROM, I have had a couple lock-ups but overall, my favorite G2 KK ROM > EVERY-THING I like from Paranoid Android, Nameless, AOSB, MoKee are ALL in C-ROM - I was trying to remember the random couple of bugs I have found > one of them is the WP Blur function it always f/c's .... none of them are anything big to me and DEFINITELY not deal breakers for moving me away from running this as my DD with Furnace Kernel 1.80.

This ROM kicks so much ass - I look forward to regular updates and further stability with KK builds in general - MANY THANKS !!
[Verizon LG G2] JJT211:
Lol...i know that!

I guess i meant ask what was the fix?

Battery problem is FIXED, but home button gone? Double Tap 2 Wake gone?
[Verizon LG G2] ThatKidDrew:
To fix double tap just go into settings disable it and re-enable it and that fixed it for me
[Verizon LG G2] HueyT:
Cool. That worked. Thanks given. Appreciated it. How about home button? Mine doesn't work. Does yours?

---------- Post added at 01:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:54 PM ----------

Can't get lock screen to come on after waking phone.

---------- Post added at 01:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:02 PM ----------

Double Tap 2 Wake problem and fix recurs after rebooting so you have to do this fix after every reboot.
[Verizon LG G2] Deliberate:
Yup. After every reboot u have to re-enable double tap. Home button? What's wrong with it. Just pressed mine and it does what it always foes? And lock screen comes on when I wake phone...?
[Verizon LG G2] HueyT:
I'll try to clean install to see that fix a lot of these small issues. Great job on fixing the kernel battery problem though. Phone drains 28 mAH and cool. Battery is draining normally like stock and not quickly like before. Charging normally also. Hopefully, this will help your other 2 AOSP roms with battery problems also.
[Verizon LG G2] ThatKidDrew:
The home button image was replaced with a different icon, but worked. I use PIE. Try disabling and re-enabling navigation
[Verizon LG G2] HueyT:
Yep, clean install fixed everything except for Double Tap 2 Wake needs to be reset after every reboot. (I tried to dirty flash over CM11-24A, Jackpot Clavin's and it worked except for small issues like above--sorry for false alarm).

[Verizon LG G2] HueyT:
Install stock 24A rom (like XDABBEB 1.1.1, Malladus 2.0.2, Cloudy's 3 stock roms 2.x, Steel Droid 1.x, Micromod's 2 stock roms, etc.) and make sure GPS and rotation works (to reset sensors correctly). Then wipe cleanly (data, system, cache, dalvik-cache) and then flash this ROM along with G-apps and/or ViperAudio mod (to boost volume). Then it should work fine.

Fast charge is engaged !!!!

Woo Hoo !!!

Charging at 700-1200 mAH on PC USB port on stock kernel of C-Rom 6.5.

Impressive !!!!.

(Even fast charge of Dorimanx 4,6 stock kernel only allowed 700 mAH on LG charger (1.8 AH rating) and 500 mAH on PC USB charging).
[Verizon LG G2] ThatKidDrew:
What kernel are you using for this ROM?
[Verizon LG G2] HueyT:
Stock. There is no current custom standalone kernel for 24A, non-Mahdi, AOSP roms (only stock kernels like Simple, Dorimanx, Furnace for stock based roms). Mahdi AOSP ROM has Furnace AOSP kernel that'll work.

Our dev DELIBERATELY put in fast charge on his stock kernel for this rom as we kept complaining how slow this rom charges. :D

v6.5 Feedback- Fixes, New problems, and persistent problems - thanks for the update and the amazing work done, hope all this information helps somehow!

How I installed update

Flashed 6.5 over 6.4, then PA mini gapps from 05/10, then wiped cache and dalvik, then booted into ROM.

Fixes

-battery drain fixed, Battery life isn't amazing but no draining :)

-charging fixed

-along with the two above, the phone doesn't heat up

-more I think I'm forgetting at the moment

New Problems

-theme engine broken, I tried multiple themes, same issues reoccurring (recents won't show properly and WiFi signal in recents?, status bar problems), refer to pictures

-home button image changed to something weird, refer to pictures

-double tap not working, must disable and re-enable every boot

-possibly more

Persistent Bugs

-Performance settings still don't stick

-data goes on an off for a couple seconds when switching of LTE and turning on WiFi from the toggles

-possibly more km forgetting at the moment

-can't send or receive MMS
[Verizon LG G2] Compromise:
Same boat here. No more drain but MMS still can't be sent (this happened in the previous versions).
[Verizon LG G2] ThatKidDrew:
Battery comparison ( I play clash of clans, go on YouTube, read articles on the Internet, go on Twitter, listen to music with Viper audio, and talk on the phone)
[Verizon LG G2] HueyT:
Try clean wipe and install. My home icon is normal but I don't use PIE but Nova launcher. Performance governors and frequency will stick if you use No Frills CPU app. MMS sent fine for me when sending photo and for group messaging (using standard SMS app). I came from CloudyFa's CloudyFlex 2.2 (custom stock rom) with Dorimanx 4.6 and then wiped clean (data, system, cache, dalvik-cache) and flashed C-rom 6.5 (dirty flashed caused some problems as mentioned earlier), minimal G-apps, and ViperAudio in TWRP 2.7.0.0. My phone is VS98024A.

You do have to reset Double Tap 2 Wake with every reboot though.

Netflix, Pandora, Google Music all work fine.

Try Hangout to send MMS as it should work more reliably for MMS.

Don't forget to setup APN in Hangouts: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2053705
[Verizon LG G2] Deliberate:
yes. u have to reset double tap after every reboot... I think I narrowed it down to a display-caf issue? Anyone have any ideas how I fix this?
[Verizon LG G2] ThatKidDrew:
Thanks for the clean install idea, fixed some of my problems and made this ROM even better than it already is :thumbup:

What it fixed :)

-theme engine issues

-Performance settings now stick

-wonky home button issues
[Verizon LG G2] Compromise:
Did a clean wipe and everything is working great. Battery seems to be way better now, only lost 1% over 3 hours of light use.. thanks.
[Verizon LG G2] jason1332:
Great work on this ROM, daily driver material for sure.
[Verizon LG G2] HeXaLox:
Not trying to be a troll or anything but I think I have bad battery life literally...so here goes: 100 at 12am, woke up at 6 and its at 62% so about 10% each hour, I put it back in charging and it only increased 1% after 5mins...I came from malladus and I was expecting better battery life than stock but seems like that's not the case :/
[Verizon LG G2] jason1332:
Yeah, that is bad. Full wipe? No TiBu restores? What process is eating the battery? Do you have gsam or wakelock detector installed?
[Verizon LG G2] HueyT:
Some stock ROMs are very good battery life already like XDABBEB's or if you use custom kernels like Simple, Furnace, or Dorimanx on stock.

We never said this ROM's battery life is great but there was a problem in previous build when the battery would drain literally 1% every 10 minutes so your battery would only last 3-4 hours daily. This and subsequent builds have resolved this battery drain problem.

This ROM's battery life is average at best, but it's cool cause it's fast, smooth, lots of customizations, unique look/function, and AOSP.

Until custom kernels are avail for KK AOSP--currently none avail (except Mahdi will support Furnace AOSP), battery life will be just average.

Kernel Issues

For some reason any time I flash a kernel (aosp ones of course, like paek) it just gives me a bootloop. Any particular reason why?? And double tap to wake doesn't always work. Other wise, great ROM... Just wish I could fix those two issues.
[Verizon LG G2] Esteway.619:
That's because there are no custom kernel support for official kitkat. That's why you are bootlooping
[Verizon LG G2] JRJ442:
And Paek isn't true 4.4 source based. It was released even before they got a true 4.4 kernel booting on AOSP, way before the OTA, So stay away from that one.
[Verizon LG G2] silvertero:
Thank you for your response, that makes sense now... I just find it weird that they don't mesh. Are there any other kernels that will work with the OTA based ROM/kernel?
[Verizon LG G2] JRJ442:
When PAEK was released they were basically JB kernels made to work with Kit Kat. So even though it's for 4.4.2, it's still based on 4.2. That's one of the main reasons there were so many issues. To answer your other question...No. The only custom kernel we have now is Furnace. And that's built with Mahdi's ramdisk. So it won't work with this ROM currently
[Verizon LG G2] Compromise:
Anyone else getting random times when the screen will not turn on, but will turn on after a few tries. When this happens, the wallpaper I have set gets reset and goes to a random one with patterns on it. Strange..

pie buttons

in c-tool, when to pie, enabled pie controls, clicked on buttons, made some changes. The changes show in this control panel, even after I reboot phone, but do not change the phone's default 3 buttons.

What am I missing?

Just discovered buttons settings in the navigation bar menu, was able to make desired change. Pie controls control something else I see, to be discovered...

I am no longer able to go into recovery by pressing the volume down and power key twice. I need to go into recovery to re install some software.

How can I do this?

Problem solved: press power button on back twice to see button to boot into recovery
[Verizon LG G2] HueyT:
It's more likely related to disabling lockscreen. This can make your face hanging your phone up accidentally. The proximity sensor sometimes is sluggish and did not turn off the touch screen in time. Enabling the lockscreen (does not need security if you don't want to) should prevent this accidental hanging up syndrome.

Bluetooth and double tap to wake issues otherwise great experience

I am having problems with the double tap to wake getting reset after reboot even when the box is checked it doesn't work. Also having problems with the Bluetooth not connecting to my car phone automatically and when it does (after doing it manually) it does not connect automatically next time I turn on the car. Other than that the ROM is very smooth and responsive. I am back to stock rooted for now but if I find the way to fix those issues I re-install and use as daily driver.

[Verizon LG G2] Lesser Version:
Is there a particular reason why custom kernel development on KK has been non-existent? I thought I saw in another thread a post to the kernel source that was briefly up, but then taken down. Just curious. Is there anything special coming from a 24A stock rom that needs to be done prior to flashing this aosp rom? Thanks!

Nope....flash away!
[Verizon LG G2] Robshr:
Love this ROM just one big I found is of you power off and then power on our just do a reboot knock to wake doesn't work unless you go into settings and uncheck it then recheck it then it works again

And one other problem is that I can't seem to get any other aosp kernels to flash they all get stuck on the lg boot screen and I've tried them all I saw in a previous post someone got dr87's kernel to work but I've tried everything I can think of I even wiped system/data/dalvic/cache and nothing still just hangs on lg boot screen any suggestions would be greatly appreciated thanks
