[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] mrwicked:
I was having major battery drain with maybe 3hrs of SOT. Verizon was gonna make me pay the deductible to get a replacement. Instead, I called google and we did all the trouble shooting steps and they determined it was bad. They acknowledged the battery drain and said it was being looked into and they would send me a new phone. New phone is great, when I take off charger it drops to 98% almost immediately and the first hour of SOT it will drop to 80%, but most days I can get 6-7hrs SOT with heavy usage. So not complaining :)

How's your mobile battery now?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Jay01:
guys, following on from the above thread, try and make that change, see if it helps anyone with battery life, I have just disabled it on my phone, will give it few days

Hello guys

I'm looking to change my OnePlus 6t for a pixel 3xl.

I'm already tried the Pixel 3 but I returned it because battery life was very bad.

Is the pixel 3 XL does have a better battery life than the pixel 3 ? And compare to the OnePlus ?

Some reviews are report different conclusions about battery life and drain and I prefer have a real opinion from users ?

how did you change doze settings?

is it possible to disable the motion sensor when dozing (so it never wakes when off)?

if so how
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] namura:
Apps like naptime allows you to disable the motion sensor when dozing, although it tends to cause to screen to flash to max brightness then back down again when you turn on the screen. I didn't like that behaviour.

Basically instead of turning the motion sensor off, I just change the doze settings depending on my usage scenario. If I detect that I am going to be moving around, hence tripping the motion sensor and kicking the device out of deep doze, I just prolong the time before the device goes into a deep doze. On the other hand if I know the device will be stationary for a long time, then I will make that period really short..like 2 minutes and the device goes into a deep doze.

The settings can be changed via an ADB shell, but I got lazy doing that all the time and wrote a small app that allows me to switch between the modes.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Jay01:
Is root required?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] namura:
Yup for the app to work, root is required.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Maahi Kong:
Seems like this worked for me.

settings -> system -> Advanced -> Developer Options -> System Tracing. Uncheck the Trace Debuggable Applications. Enjoy about 15% better battery life.

Make sure to have a before and after record of your battery usage, with same set of apps, and same pattern of usage over couple of charges (like 3-4 days), to see how this affects your battery life. So, don't just rush to make the change, measure it. Your numbers may vary compared to mine.

Please someone test this multiple times and let me know if this worked. :)

Not sure what it does. Anyone knows about this let me know. didn't notice any changes in daily usage with this turned off. Seems like helped Battery life improve.

Hey I would say my battery getting better day by day... Seems like Google's AI magic needs time... It is getting me just below 8 hrs screen-on time. It's doing wonders where as SOT's on my old phones Note 9 and Mate 20 pro are around 8.5 to 9.5 hrs. On them I saw this SOT from day one. But on Pixel be patient for a week to 10 days. Let it go through multiple charge cycles drain it completely before you charge again.

I got my phone around 10 days back. 1st day my SOT was horrible at 3.5 hrs.

Later it clocked to 5-6 hrs... After that it seemed giving me 7.5 hrs consistently.

I was looking at blogs toggling Adaptive battery on and off. Later I kept calm and believed in Google and turned it on. And still my SOT is 7.5 hrs minimum. My maximum was 7 hrs 55 minutes I guess. I wil attach screenshots a well.

So just be patient even with a smaller battery it is giving great SOT and battery life. Now I have all the defaults turned on. Even Always-on Display is always on.

KEEP CALM AND BELIEVE IN GOOGLE!!!!

LET AI DO IT'S MAGIC.

I would say for the almost flawless, no bloatware stock android(far better than the custom ones on Samsung and Huawei which I loved before) and the best Camera on a phone. I am happy to be patient and wait for the AI to work.

Google Phones is not all about Hardware and big numbers. Pure AI magic.

The battery on the xl is not great and I have AOD off. The pixel 2 xl had better battery than the 3 xl. I would not recommend this phone if battery is a concern.

DCD if you dont like what im doing just tell me to delete this post and i will.

All credit goes to DCD one of the best kitchen and Rom maker's out there.

If it wasn't for him our 6800's would be almost useless.

This is for the people who are using the titan kitchen. I took DCD's latest build and repackaged it for the PPCKitchen.org Titan Kitchen located

here http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=23206

Place it in your BuildOS/Kitchens directory and then extract "Titan_DCD_3.01_Selections.txt" and place it in the BuildOS/Projects directory.

Now you can create your own custom DCD rom using the new kitchen and DCD's latest build.

I've been using this for about 20 hrs and the rom is very stable.

Thanks again DCD u Da MAN!!!!!!!!

Make Sure to remove---> _fixed <---from the end of the file before u place it in the kitchens folder.

Errors in PPCkitchen

King - Thanks for putting this together

Unfortunately, I'm getting an error message (a bunch).

I downloaded the main file and did the updater.

When I go into BuildOS and select DCD 3.0.4 5054 or 5060, I am bombarded with error messages "Internal Error - Option.xml GUID not found (PROGRAM - xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx) where the "Program" is the name of the program and the x's are registry keys.

After I click ok 100 times to get through to the Kitchen, it allows me to select programs and build the OS, but once I install it, nothing actually gets installed on the phone.

Do you know what is causing this? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Cycomachead:
Thanks will try. The BuildOS in the regular kitchen is crashing so I can now cook a kitchen.

Also will my OEMs made for the 3.0.1 rom work if I put them in the build os directory. I didn't use the OEMizer w/ BuildOS. It appears to be the same just w/ a different save directory.

[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] aph:
I guess the obvious question is, what's the difference between the two kitchens?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gguruusa:
DCD's kitchen is built around his ROM. The PPCkitchen kitchen isn't designed for any specific ROM or device.

Advantages of DCD's kitchen:

It's what DCD is using, so you know it builds his ROM like he intended it.

Advantages of PPCkitchen's kitchen:

Easy to install.

Prettier front end.

More error checking.

More OEMs to pick from.

Self updating.

Device dependency/exclusions supported

Carrier dependency/exclusions supported

OEM dependency/exclusions supported

Easy to move same configuration from one kitchen to the next.

Effortless switching between ROM configurations and kitchens

Splash/animation support
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] azclown:
I honestly don't think you give DCD enough credit for his work.... Here are some more Advantages....

Easy to use

Builds a basic ROM with only 2 clicks of the mouse.

Can be used behind firewalls.

No IP logging when you use it. (I had been told this was logged with your login name)

In all fairness both systems work very well, while the PPC kitchen has a more elegant streamlined interface, I do believe the end result is the same, a working ROM the way "I" want it. :D

error

hey guy anybody else getting an error unable to make file

when it goes to unpack the ppcgeeksoem rar
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gguruusa:
Could be because DCD has only a little to do with what we're talking about (which I gave him credit for). That's Bepe's buildos you're looking at, and essentially what we're comparing is Bepe's buildos w/ DCD integrated against PPCKitchen's buildos w/ DCD integrated.

You can't seriously suggest that Bepe's buildos is easier to use - the interface is practically identical! Both are about the same difficulty to use in their most basic, unaltered configurations, and both can build a basic rom w/ 2 clicks. Installing, configuring, starting, and maintaining is a lot different however...the nod hands down goes to ppckitchen there. Once you get past a basic configuration, PPCkitchen's buildos is unchallenged.

The proxy/firewall thing is fixed (general release this weekend) and it doesn't log IPs (never has).

Bepe's buildos get's the nod for no internet connection required, and the previous version (I don't know about v2) get's the nod for Linux compatible. Bepe's buildos also get's the nod for being more interfaceable to other projects and having more projects using it, but none of that is related to the original question (except maybe linux compatibility). [EDIT: v2 isn't native linux compatible, so no nod there.]

All of this is not too suprising, as PPCkitchen's buildos is, at it's core, an evolution of Bepe's Buildos.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] c@rL0$:
I give credit to all sources DCD's kitchen / PPC Geeks kitchen and more.

They both offer the tools to make a ROM to your likings, some better then other, but the fact of the matter is that it gets the job done.

What PPC Geeks version is doing is making a bit more user friendly ( in my opinion ), but I still used DCD's kitchens because I really don't add any extra OEM's to my ROM's unless it is a specifically Themed ROM and then again I can get it done with both kitchens with ease.

I guess users will just have to test them both out themselves to see if they prefer one or the other.

What would be great is if we can have a Modifier / virtual simulator / kitchen where we can find ways to modify our ROM's / PPC's to their best potential ( such as drivers, RAM Management that works / compatibility with different OS and maybe interface change support ).

A virtual simulator to test out all of our modifications by simulating our respective device just as if we were to cook the ROM ( this could save tons of time rather then just flashing all the time or preventing an accidental bricking of your phone)

And a Universal kitchen for practically any Device ( well TITAN at least for our use ) that works on XP, Vista, MAC, and even Linux.

Im sure with all the developers on this forum and on ppcgeeks we would be able to get this done some time in the future.

Just an Idea....
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gguruusa:
PPCkitchen buildos is actually the closest you can come currently for easily swapping components around, and there's a universal kitchen here on xda that supports many devices (way more devices than PPCkitchen does).

Don't hold your breath on the hardware emulator :)
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gguruusa:
You'll have to elaborate a little better. If I had to guess, however, I'd say that you might have an older version of winrar installed. As a workaround, you can manually extract and modify the selections to use the extracted dir instead of the .rar.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gguruusa:
It exists in no2chem, if DCD doesn't have it. I think it's in the listview for DCD kitchens, not the toolbar, however.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] c@rL0$:
Yup I have tried the PPCkitchen and it's features are cool, but I would be cool to able to exchange OS features / software from other phones. Maybe a Android phone in the future, the Xperia panel and more. (if possible , which i think it's highly possible)

I have seen the Universal kitchen but it sucks that a lot of kitchens out there are limited to cooking only in XP compatible computers. XP is chill and all but it would be great to help out others that don't have Windows XP.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gguruusa:
Are you out of drive space? It's takes a good 300-400+ MB free to build a rom.

The only other problem you could potentially have is a truncated ppcgeeks_oem.rar (not sure what error that spits out). Upload your selections.txt, and someone can test it for you on their system (that'll tell you if it's local to your environment or not)
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] lllboredlll:
SPB Touch Calculator is included in the DCD base. Just simply don't select it. You will end up with it installed in the end though. At some point I may try to extract DCD 3.0.4 to work seemlessly with PPCKITCHEN but for now I'm just making a list of issues I see everywhere so I can attemp to incorperate it all into one build without constant revisions.

There is a good chance that is what your error is. I had the same exact error and was at the same time checkin out this thread when I realised me and you both had selected the same calc choice. Just for the hell of it I de-selected and it tried again. All went well.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] viper8u2:

Sorry, brain damage. This is caused by the kitchen you are using not being properly configured and kitchen files being over written by later OEM packages.

For me it is as well very important. Looking forward Huawei Mate 20 rooting. I will buy this phone only if there is root. Otherwise, Samsung Note 9
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] cd993:
I've preordered it and it'll arrive this Friday and I'll claim the free watch and wireless charger too. I'm gonna enjoy the device for as long as I can, but in all honesty if I miss root too much then I'll sell it all and switch (from my current pixel 2 xl) to either the 6T or Pixel 3 xl. I'm very curious of the 6T, I know it will have amazing rom development which is a big thing for me normally, but also the camera may not be as good (though the Google cam port may solve that!). And the Pixel 3 xl doesn't seem like much of an upgrade from the 2 XL, so hell I may even end up just getting the 2 XL back again lol

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Reuben_skelz92:
I'm the same but I don't like to step backwards so wouldn't go for the pixel 2 XL again. The OnePlus 6t will be decent but the not as good screen and camera always hold me back. And the 3 XL which although is a great phone I hate the notch and 4gb ram and a few other things are disappointing. It will hard be after having the mate 20 pro which has so many things to go back to something with less lol. But yeah emui isnt my favourite but if we can at least root and debloat it I'm happy. Same with my Samsung tablet (not really a Sammy fan) I can at least have root and disable all the bloat
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] cd993:
Very good points.

Plus if we can root and possible twrp, then maybe if/when xposed comes to Pie then I'd settle for now custom roms :p
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Reuben_skelz92:
Yeah exactly. Although I will always flash a rom I'm not as fussed as I use to be, ROMs are great but think stock is very good these days on my most phones . Shame I will never get to see DU PIE on the pixel 2:(. But at least root is a must, don't use xposed haha. Just order the same film screen protectors as you and a spigen style case from eBay, want to be prepared. The glass protectors might be useless and don't want to be without one
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] cd993:
I'll miss some things though, like adding extra buttons to the navbar and extra functionality (I have an additional power button there that turns the screen off with a tap, shows the power menu on long press and double tap takes a screenshot) plus I love having long press back button to kill apps, but perhaps with a gesture app I can replace such things :)
