Hate to repost ... is there no timer for a PIN lock?

Coukda sworn I could before ... ? Like screen off for 1 minute before PIN lock? So far I can only disable initial lock screen for however long. Not the time before PIN lock is enabled. If it can't be done I'm sorry for reposting but for the life of me I can't get it despite, for some reason, believing I used to br able to do this.

Also, the Sprint Lovers rom is pretty damn close to stock, and will update your radio/wimax/pri in one flash.
[EVO 4G Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
Go to Settings => CM Settings => User Interface => Screen timeout display

You can adjust the time from when screen turns itself off to when lock is initiated. The option below it will let you adjust the same thing for when the screen is manually turned off by power button.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mmegalodon:
It's through something like this I remember doing last time ... I'm looking for a time on the PIN lock ... this seems to work for the initial "slide lock" and when you hit power button it just boots right to screen you are on.

I guess, to be special specific, I'm looking to only have to p,ut the PIN in after screen has been off for 1 or 5 minutes. I have two Evo's and unless before I was only doing it / also only able to do it on a sense ROM but I thought CM6 allowed this? Thought I did it before in this ROM ... if not cool, but if I'm just missing it ... LOL

I'm telling you peeps... if you are getting an insane drain and installed any nightlies starting from the 26th or so... do a complete wipe and flash the release candidate. I'm pretty sure your problems will be gone. Something is causing the phone to stay awake in those nightlies.

i got that too. i use my evo as my music player for locally stored music. with the screen off, it just seems as if i lose more battery than i should? it's not a big complaint, just something i noticed.

Cool beans. My first install of this ROM hung at the boot screen. I had to connect to my PC to get into recovery and try again. Worked great the second time! :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] henderjr:
Here's a screen shot of my battery life starting yesterday around 4-4:30 till this morning when I put a new battery in around 8. I had 10% left at that point.

During that time I listened to audio books, Pandora, played some games, installed the two nightlies (I wiped everything for RC1 but not since), texted, surfed, played with linpack/quadrant, etc. I'm running JuiceDefender to help manage battery life by having it turn off data connections during some idle times. I also have SetCPU OC'ing to the max with ondemand other than when battery gets below 20% then I have it max at 600mHz max. Screen off is 128-499.

No complaints here for having a super large screen, high-end phone. Getting two batteries and a charger from eBay for $11.50 was nice too. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290444598681&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT
[EVO 4G Android Development] jrmithdobbs:
Really? I played through 3 full new albums I'd purchased this weekend (all ripped as 160kbit vbr aac) and lost maybe 10-20% battery over the course of the ~2-2.5 hours. I was also intermittently using the phone for reading news and such during that time. (probably a combined 30 minutes)

I also read through a full 100 page ebook off and on (about 2-2.5 hours, once again, of screen on time) and dropped maybe 10% the entire time.

I definitely see noticeable battery drain when using data and the screen at the same time, though, and the radio isn't registering the extra battery use that I know it's causing. (Not surprising given what cyanogen has said about using the N1 power settings for reporting.)

Went rooted stock 1.47->wipe->0721->0722->0723->wipe->0724->0725->rc1. Wiped cache and dalvik between each except where explicitly stated I wiped.

I'm about to do a full wipe and reinstall rc1 just because I meant to and haven't had a chance.
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
i do use mixzing as my player though. maybe that has something to do with it? using that app's lockscreen may cause the issue...

Battery Life on 6.0.0-RC1

So I am a complete noobie but noticed something with respect to battery life and would like someone much more experienced to respond.

I do not use the messages (SMS) feature at all but have noticed in Advanced Task Manager that it is all ways running (yellow). If I try to kill the task, it will not kill. I seems to remember the early HTC Hero 1.6 build they had an issue where the SMS service would never let the phone sleep and therefore drain the battery. They released a patch that fixed this.

I know, different phone, different os, different everything but why does the SMS service run all the time and won't kill?
[EVO 4G Android Development] MSmith1:
So glad that I am not the only one with that problem. I thought that there was something very wrong.

If you lost 20% of battery over 2-2.5 hours of doing what you said above, that is not a good thing.

I think some of our frames of reference are skewed when talking about battery life. Some of us are coming from 2.1 roms that were tweaked for battery life and we were spoiled by it and are comparing all other roms to those roms. This isn't necessarily a bad thing because if we were happy with the battery life on those roms, we would expect that from something we would add to our new daily driver. I am admittedly spoiled by Baked Snacks and even TJ's NonSense rom, which doesn't have the battery life of Snacks, but is still very very usable.

Others though, may have not had the pleasure of trying any of those 2.1 roms and are coming from stock and any increase in battery life is a welcomed increase that would prompt the person to say that they get great battery life.

For a frame of reference, on Baked Snacks 9.6 I was averaging over 24 hrs of unplugged time with nearly 5+ hours of screen on time. The screen on time consisted of 90% web surfing over 3G. When the screen was off, the phone was syncing, background data was on, etc. etc. No SetCPU, no nothing.

So considering that, tell me now that you get good battery life.

Again, I am in now way ****ting on this rom. CM6 is an AMAZING achievement and a ridiculous rom. Truly truly amazing when you consider how this rom is built. I am truly awed by the rom. I am just trying my best to add some scope to the battery life situation so that we can help Cyan find the root of the problem to make this rom even better.
[EVO 4G Android Development] knives of ice:
have you tried a different battery? the battery could be bad perhaps. those results shouldn't be happening thats for certain
[EVO 4G Android Development] HondaCop:
Oh Lord... Cyan has stated ad-nauseum that the battery profile is screwed up because it's from another phone. Until Cyan doesn't get his hands on EVO-specific information on how to compute and display power consumption, the display will NOT be correct. For all we know, when our phones say we have 10% left, in reality, we probably have more or even less. So to keep harping on the battery issue is unreal.

Once Cyan updates this information and CYAN himself states that the battery consumption display is working as it should, then we can start discussing whether this ROM is a battery hog or not.

Let's give it a rest and move on to other issues which might help Cyan troubleshoot and fix.

This is like having a bad thermostat in your house and you keep putting freon into the system just because the thermostat reads 85F, yet it's nice and cool inside.
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
yea, i mean, i'm actually expecting that it's a wrong battery reading since, with using the music player, i still get good battery life comparable to my old dc 3.2.3 setup.

lol yep. i am patiently waiting for cyan's power profile update.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MSmith1:
Got you. I never used dc 3.2.3 because I didn't like the battery life. LMAO.

[EVO 4G Android Development] MSmith1:
That's not bad at all. I probably didn't give DC a long enough look. I am sure it is a great rom. Treve and Damage are very committed to their roms. I am kind of disappointed that Hero disappeared though. Seems like all of his roms including Snacks are dead.

Needing some input from fellow cm6ers...

Currently on 6.1 themed with dark froyo. Having some issues with sending out mass texts and occasionally single texts. Done the usual wipes with no avail. Not my first CM rom. Been actually flashing nightlies before this and noticed it at about 190-191. Also get the occasional drop of 3g then right back into it about 1-2 minutes later without even moving.

Have a suspicion it might be the kernel, but I'm not exactly sure when that came into play.

CM6.1 is in two words pure awesomeness! Way faster than anything sense based. Plus tons of really cool features.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xhazyx:
I would say it is smoother and faster ... this is a ROM written from the AOSP source, it has a lot of features u wouldn't find in any other ROM, lock-screen gestures, wimax led implementation, native Wi-Fi tethering, etc... there's a lot of optimizations implemented by the CM team that really make this ROM so snappy, because they write the code themselves from source. Also it is very customizable, almost anything u can think of can be modified to ur liking from within the ROM, without having to flash anything. Read the thread, and head over to forum.cyanogenmod.com to get more info as well
