Having battery issues

I came from cm11 official to this ROM. Did a clean install, but I'm facing some battery drain problems when the phone is idle. Even in airplane mode with wifi, gps, location, Sync all off, battery level drops anywhere between 3-7℅ overnight. This never used to happen in any of my previous ROM's. I've tried every September and October build, with and without gapps, with matr1x kernel and jolla with the same result. I love this ROM, Its magnificent but this problem is really frustrating me. Any help would be appreciated. :(
[Sprint LG Optimus G] SpaceMonkeyK9:
Proximity sensor is not working in the latest build. Flashed 14.1 from OP and it fixed it. Is it the same for everyone ??
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MikeEx:
October 27 build up

usual nightly stuff, check the change log in op from 19th to today.

new camera drivers still not integrated, use kernel in OP.

[Sprint LG Optimus G] akahroba:
WOW! That will be awesome! Please provide the kernel separately too.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MikeEx:
Test 1: flash at your own risk.

Sprint/International test only.

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=20799

I had to back out the wifi port for now

The camera is broken in this build. I'll make a fix later, I'm pressed for time ATM.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Whiplashh:
Don't be worried man. We are just happy to have these Gee Cm builds as it is. The least we can do is wait for anything. Thanks again for the ROM MikeEx. :)
[Sprint LG Optimus G] KevTheGuy:
What can Geeb users do if they want to use your future builds but don't want to have the stock camera drivers? o:

I don't like official cm11 because of Gproj, your builds are better :thumbup:
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MikeEx:
I plan on making the old camera kernels come packed with the old drivers.

Or to just make a flashable zip like the revert Wi-Fi one.

But only if I can get this working automatically.

I think everyone else is manually copying the drivers over every build.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] xyyx:
Stock cam drivers in kernel has some bug. Can you test it?

In full screen app, for example CoolReader if you recieved message with cm's headsup, screen blinks with black stripes. This bug not appears on charger or if i revert cam's commit.

And this bug not have two kernel: jolla and xboxfanj (branch: xb) based on new msm kernel. But this kernels has random reboots.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MikeEx:

[Sprint LG Optimus G] Galileo:
Awesome! Was hoping to see something new today, one question tho, what's the difference between the normal kernel and the c version?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] gu5t3r:
normal -> camera drivers from gee (led focus working in dark, lower pic quality during daylight)

c -> camera drivers from stock kk (no flash on focus in dark, better pic quality during daylight)
[Sprint LG Optimus G] gu5t3r:
Do I need to flash august2014 adreno drivers after rom or they are built-in?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MikeEx:
I read some were having trouble with them. So I opt not to include them.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jera27:
hey guys so i am new to the thread. I came over from the official cm11 , i know the color scheme changes but i wanted to know what specific kernel to use so i could have more vivid colors in the 11/8 build. any help would be greatly appreciated and also if there is anything else i need to know while running this roms such as broken features or battery drains or anything i should worry about ?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MikeEx:
The latest kernel versions of Matr1x (since v14.1) have the colors set to LG's profile by default.

Jolla kernel also has LG's color profile.

The only major difference is the lack of the sharpening filter. I think we are better off without it.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Unreal_Shogo:
Do you include smartmax and hotplug to turn left off any core? :)
[Sprint LG Optimus G] SpaceMonkeyK9:
Battery drain in airplane mode

Hey [MENTION=1380002]MikeEx[/MENTION] i tried every build from june to the latest November 8 build. When in airplane mode, my battery keeps draining when the phone is idle. Under usage, battery life is solid. But when the phone is idle, charge keeps dropping 1% every hour. This happens even after switching to airplane mode with wifi,gps,sync all turned off. Any help ??

---------- Post added at 11:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:04 AM ----------

Jolla kernel has smartmax and intelliplug. Flash that and you're good to go. :)
[Sprint LG Optimus G] prowlingfox:
Sometimes I have to press the power button three times to get the screen to come on.

11-8

matrix 14.2c
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Unreal_Shogo:
I know, but with matrix some apps don't force close
[Sprint LG Optimus G] SpaceMonkeyK9:
I'm using jolla mate. No issues whatsoever. Nothing force closes.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Unreal_Shogo:
Install asphalt 8 on vanir and you'll see what I mean :(
[Sprint LG Optimus G] akahroba:
Does the latest vanir have jolla kernel included by default?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Unreal_Shogo:
I don't think so. I'm in commotio and use the ak variant
[Sprint LG Optimus G] akahroba:
So you flashed jolla on vanir?

Look, jolla has max cpu clock set on 1300. If you have lag or something you can increase the max clock up to 1800. Use an app like trickstermod.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Unreal_Shogo:
No, I installed matr1x from this thread. Is excellent in my point of view, I put 2 cores @ 1ghz and goes really smooth and battery life, very impressive
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MikeEx:
Sorry for another delay. I have been lacking time to do this lately.

When I get back tomorrow night. I'm going to build a CM11 and a CM12.

And see about why Matr1x brightness is so high.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Whiplashh:
Wait. CM12?!

WHAT?

:D:D:D:D:D:D:D
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Kevinjoa:
It is already out..
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Whiplashh:
Where at?

Edit: Found it. Thank you Kevin :D
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Kevinjoa:
Would be nice if other devs are working on fixes also with me, and or try them self and share.

Current bugs:

-Longer press home button doesn't activate recent by default

-4g toggle doesn't show on settings

-no in call audio

-Selinux (fixed on github and newer unpublished builds -> folder named donotflash because not every build tested)

-some blobs (necessary for mhl are not implanted)

Thanks.

My repos are on: https://github.com/lollipop-og
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MikeEx:
November 19 build is UP

Usual nightly stuff from 11-08 to today.

It looks like CM11 work is dying out. I'll keep updating the ROM for relevant changes.

Time to pull in CM12 :D

Good deal. I'll share anything I find out.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Shelnutt2:
Just FYI I pushed the official changes to github for cm-12.0. Its fully functional from the device perspective, as far as I can tell. Wifi needs multicasting disabled and the gerrit patch is still pending.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MikeEx:
Very nice. I just pulled in the 27gigs of cm12 last night and haven't done anything else yet.

Thank you very much for your work.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Matty77:
I know this is slightly off-topic, but I've tried searching to no avail.

I just signed up to Ting (from Sprint obviously), and I can seem to put in the codes to get my phone activated on Ting's systems.

Would I have to LGNPST back to stock, and then re-root it from scratch?

Anyone have any experience with that? Thanks
[Sprint LG Optimus G] dopy25:
If you mean the dialer codes, then you should be able to just flash the ZVC stock rom and use them in there. Or you can use CDMA workshop I think. But seriously, ZVC stock is the easiest.

If you mean APNs, then just find the APN settings on the phone (ROM) you are using. If you can't find them, use the app "Change APN" in the play store.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Matty77:
Was hoping to go to Ting w/o going back to stock. BUT it's been a solid 6 mos of beta ROMs, so it's just a good idea to wipe I guess...

Did the whole, ZVC, PRL, GPS-lock thing & will flash again soon
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MikeEx:
So... Roaming just suddenly started working. Ouch.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] dwielunski:
What network is that?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MikeEx:
I would have to say verizon but I don't think CDMA can go that fast.

And just after that, roaming never popped up again. I was stuck with 1x or nothing between towns. :eek:
[Sprint LG Optimus G] dwielunski:
With those speeds it has to be LTE. Is there a rural carrier near you testing out LTE on band 25 (1900, PCS)?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] SpaceMonkeyK9:
Battery drain when idle

My phone keeps on draining charge when the phone is idle. I experience this issue with every gee based Roms. Only gproj based roms hold their juice when idleing. This issue is persistent with every kernel that I've tried and even in flight mode with everything off. Any ideas why this is happening ? I love to try all these aosp or gee based roms. But this issue just makes the phone unusable.:confused:
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Matty77:
Sorry, haven't experienced that. I've experienced quite the opposite...I know our phones are finicky, but have you did the whole wipe dalvik/cache (or wipe preparing for new ROM)?

I can use my phone regularly, even some small GPS directions, and still have 1/3 battery (or more) @ bedtime.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] SpaceMonkeyK9:
Yes i tried everything. I even went into mounts and storage and formatted all partitions. Still the same battery drain when the phone is idle. Can u tell me what ROM where you on before you tried this build ??
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Matty77:
If you go back a couple posts, you can catch me saying I JUST wiped my phone as I moved to Ting and I had to go back to stock (with LGNPST) to activate it.

I then did a GPS lock, PRL update & did a full ROM wipe installing both this ROM (dated 11/19) and full PA GAPPS.

Maybe you've installed something after flashing that's killing you? What is the Battery status saying that is eating all your energies?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] SpaceMonkeyK9:
The battery drain exists with every gee based build I've tried so far. And I've tried everything i know but the battery just keeps on draining when the phone is idle. Battery stats show phone idle as the highest consumer when i switch on the screen. But after a few seconds battery level keeps falling (say 1℅ for every hour the phone stayed idle) and screen goes to the top of the list. I don't get this problem when I'm using a gproj/CAF based build. That is what is most frustrating.:confused:
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Whiplashh:
Did you regular unlock the phone or mako unlock?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] SpaceMonkeyK9:
I mako unlocked it.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Matty77:
Hey Mike,

Are you taking a break for the holidays, or should we be looking for another thread for a newer version?

Thanks again for your (and everyone's) hard work.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MikeEx:
I can actually pump a new build tonight and put it out tomorrow. I've just been a bit busy with personal matters. nothing dire, but very tiring.

The Lollipop-OG crew are handling CM12 though.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] israphil622:
How's your experience with [MENTION=5095490]Kevinjoa[/MENTION] cm12? The main reason I have yet to flash it is that there seemed to be some incompatibility with ls970 in those builds, which is confusing being its in the sprint thread.

We're all risking it, I know, but if there weren't a couple of knowledgeable sprint users over there assuring posts are device specific I may be carrying a brick by now.

Saying all that to ask if you plan on building LP sometime down the road?

Spoken like an O.G. using TapaRap.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MikeEx:
December 12 build is UP!

just about a whole months worth of CM11 changes

development is fully shifted to CM12 by now

For me it seems to work ok...

There might be some problems I consider minor...

You may or may not have to change the network type to "LTE/CDMA (auto PRL)" every reboot.

If sensors don't work after booting up, re-flash the ROM a couple times or clear cache/dalvik/ART.

That said, It's very smooth compared to anything that came before.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Matty77:
Thanks for the update Mike.

It fixed an annoying bug with the camera when Google Camera updated last, it would freeze anytime the flash was used.

All better!
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Whiplashh:
Flashing now! Thank you for this!
[Sprint LG Optimus G] akahroba:
Sorry, I can't see the cm12 download link
[Sprint LG Optimus G] dopy25:
There isn't one in this thread. [MENTION=1380002]MikeEx[/MENTION] is stating that he updated CM11 and included the last months worth of fixes and there is most likely no more CM11 development.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] HdMsTrTeCh:
My stock messaging app is not showing a send after I type. What am I doing wrong? Hangouts looks like it's working. Using newest cm11 12-12 O_o
[Sprint LG Optimus G] dopy25:
That must be an upstream CM issue because the same happened to me with yesterday's update to PACman. I'm not sure what the issue is but try replacing the messenger apk with an older version.

This kind of sucks because I'm not sure if there are any more cm 11 updates. That might just be that they aren't implementing new features but should make some updates. I'll post back about the new update. Might be fixed already but [MENTION=1380002]MikeEx[/MENTION] would need to make another build when it's fixed.

Coincidentally quick reply works but the send within the app doesn't.

EDIT: it is the app, must have been compiled with something missing. Replace the MMS.apk in system/priv app with the one here if you don't have an older backup.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MikeEx:
I'll make a new build tonight. If it doesn't fix it, I'll re-release it with the apk you provided and I'll keep watching the repo for a solution.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MikeEx:
New builds is up. Let me know.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] HdMsTrTeCh:
Thanks for update but looks like messaging app still has issue. No big deal switched apk out with another older ROM and all is good so far.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bgkone:
Hi, will there be updating matr1x kernel for android L?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MikeEx:
I'm not really sure if it's necessary.

The kernel [MENTION=5095490]Kevinjoa[/MENTION] is working with petty much has everything you could want.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Matty77:
So which is the forum thread for CM12 w/ a gee base for us?

looks like there's a few going on & I'm not sure which...thanks
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MikeEx:
I use http://xdaforums.com/optimus-g-intl/orig-development/rom-cyanogenmod-12-t2980060
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Matty77:
never flashed an international ROM before, any drawbacks?

Issues getting it on the Sprint (Ting for me) network?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MikeEx:
You may have to manually input the ting apn, but that should be it.

Just be sure to flash clean.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MikeEx:
January 25th build is up!

You read that right, you're not seeing things.

It's been a while, but enough changes to CM were made since last release.

(98% of all changes from last release are for other devices)
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Matty77:
VERY COOL, THANKS!

Still been holding off on Lollipop, doesn't seem ready for prime time.

I updated to this Jan 25th build w/o a problem...thanks again!
[Sprint LG Optimus G] franky_z:
Hi,

I tried this rom for the first time, came from faust and his cm11 geehrc temasek.

Now I have a problem: when I open any camera app I get the error:

"can't connect to camera"

I'm on solid gee kernel kk stock camera 1.5 Any ideas?

UPDATE: installed jolla kernel and problem is gone. Hmm, I thought solid works on this rom too...?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] dopy25:
Nope. Solid is for gproj sources. This ROM was built with GEE sources, slightly different, enough to make a difference in what kernel you can and should use.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] akahroba:
Solid has gee versions too [emoji14]

http://loller79.altervista.org/
[Sprint LG Optimus G] dopy25:
Oh snap! Where have I been...

[MENTION=4101306]franky_z[/MENTION] I guess just make sure you use the correct version. I know solid used to be gproj only, so I am sure loller still makes it too. Just make sure to flash the gee version of solid.

Thanks [MENTION=5722562]akahroba[/MENTION]
[Sprint LG Optimus G] akahroba:
I don't think his problem is gee/gproj consideration.

The fact is that you can't flash a kernel with mako camera on kernel with stock camera. You'll see the error stated.

Since this ROM uses stock camera, he can't use a kernel with mako camera. Jolla works because it uses stock camera. So, simply using solid gee kk stock camera version should fix the issue.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] dopy25:
Good point. If it were sources issue, the rom shouldn't even boot. Mind linking him to the stock camera solid kernel?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] franky_z:
I used this kernel:

Solid_Kernel_V1.5GEE-KK_STOCK-CAMERA.zip

And with this one the camera did not start. But it should work with this rom I guess...

Thats why I thought it might be a problem with this rom. But Jolla-Kernel works, so it is not. I will make a full wipe and try again...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MikeEx:
Actually, I never integrated the stock camera. The ROM with the built in kernel is all mako.

Solid may have the stock camera kernel, but doesn't include the drivers to replace the old mako drivers.

Try flashing solid after flashing matr1x or jolla.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] akahroba:
Well, my theory turned to a bull**** then :D never mind. There must be something wrong with solid kernel.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] franky_z:
Thank you, it works!
[Sprint LG Optimus G] franky_z:
*deleted*
[Sprint LG Optimus G] SignumPL:
If anybody will encounter the problem with message "Android is upgrading Optimizing apps x of x" showing up every bootup, check if you have installed proper version of gapps. Link in the first post is dead, so I flashed some another package.. As turned out - wrong version. Here is the link to the right one: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95832962473395379
[Sprint LG Optimus G] xboxfanj:
Found the issue. Next build will work.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MitoTakatori:
Oh. Thanks.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MikeEx:
I've been flashing the new adreno drivers from xboxfanj's file page with every nightly, so this one got by me.

It looks like they are now in the vendor repo.

Thanks Jake. :highfive:
[Sprint LG Optimus G] xboxfanj:
Looks like that's what broke it oddly enough. I need to look into it, but for now, I reverted.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MikeEx:
That's too odd. thanks for looking into it

Pulling the build.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] xboxfanj:
Reverted it at Vanir, so next build will work.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MikeEx:
Sorry guys, getting build errors today. I'll see what I can do tonight
[Sprint LG Optimus G] prowlingfox:
Anybody having problems with camera? When I try to open the camera app, even on a fresh boot, I just get "Unfortunately, camera has stopped." But third party apps like FV-5 and Snapchat work fine.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] PartimusPrime:
What gapps you using? I'm on the 4/7 build using [MENTION=2915683]BaNkS[/MENTION] minimal and all is well :D
[Sprint LG Optimus G] prowlingfox:
I've had the issue on 3 different ROM's with 3 different gapps. Just tried Vanir with 03/22 Banks gapps minimal and same problem. Can't get the camera app to open. On the first time trying to open Camera FV-5, it FC'd, but the second time it worked. Tried with both glitch4 and stock kernel on Vanir.

Tried CM11 Official LS970, the 3/8 or 3/9 build, can't remember which, with Banks 3/15

Tried CM11 Unofficial Gee 3/7 with latest PA Gapps

EDIT: Just tried the 3/7 CM Remix GEE (just because I already had it on my SD) without flashing any gapps and the camera works. Going to flash some other ROM's and see if I can narrow it down to a GAPPS issue.

EDIT2: Literally as I was typing that last edit, with the camera app open on CM Remix, it FC'd and now it won't open again. Well, actually, now it says "Cannot connect to camera." when I try to open it.

EDIT3: More good news. Flashed CM11 LS970 without any gapps, opened camera, immediately got yellow demigod crash screen.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MikeEx:
Have you tried plain stock firmware?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] prowlingfox:
Yeah, I'm on Stocktimus now and the camera is working beautifully. I just posted about this in the smorgasbord thread as well.

Four different ROMs, one of them from over a month ago, with 3 or 4 different gapps packages, both Banks and PA, from different dates, same result.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] prowlingfox:
Well, shoot my kitten and call me Sally. Formatting /data fixed it. I wasted so much time today trying to figure this out...switching ROMS and GAPPS packages, LGNPST'ing, going absolutely nuts...And that explains why Stock was working fine, since 4.1.2 uses a separate higher directory on the /sdcard for user data than 4.2+ does...ISUDGHIOSUDHF i'm going to go cry a pool of tears and then swim in it okay
[Sprint LG Optimus G] PartimusPrime:
Good work Sally... Glad you found a fix :D
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MikeEx:
darnit I stayed up a little extra to figure this out but I'm out of time for tonight.

I ran a fresh build that was stopped early by a selinux error. I copied these changes which allowed the build to complete.

While testing the new build, I took a picture with the camera which caused the phone to lock up and reboot. I noticed this commit said something similar needs to be done for the camera.

Edit: After further testing (had more time today). all appears good. It was just a fluke that I didn't have time to test further.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MikeEx:
Making last nights build public. see above edit.

Looks like changes to the new theme engine are causing xposed problems.

Very nice, ART is working for me as well with built in matr1x kernel.

I haven't done any clean flashing since I started this ROM.

Anything new in 4/18? Any showstoppers for anyone?

was gonna wipe & start from scratch again this weekend since I really won't have time to do much else...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] dwielunski:
I have had on a couple of occasions Bluetooth fc and won't work again till I reboot. Don't know if it's CM related, gee-build specific, or something to do with the adreno drivers zip I've been flashing. Anyone else seeing this?

Edit: also Google camera doesn't work, that's what I was wondering if it could be driver related
[Sprint LG Optimus G] MikeEx:
Not sure about the Bluetooth. I rarely use it.

Google Camera works for me. What issue is it giving you?
