[Epic 4G Android Development] omair2005:
This didnt really do anything. Unplugged from my charger at 1:50pm, its been exactly 2 hours and its at 77%. Mostly my phone was in my pocket, and I did very light browsing over 3g (maybe 10 minutes).

I'm on Latest Epic Experience with Mixup Kernel. And I don't have OC widget or Setcpu.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sewhuy:
Try running the same setup with phoenix 1.43 kernel. Still super snappy and way better battery then mix up.

I'm also using external charger, 30+hrs with screen on for 6hrs
[Epic 4G Android Development] muyoso:
Is it really that much better? If so, what causes it to be better on battery life? I am getting great battery life using the mixup kernel because I have juicedefender and setcpu working hard to conserve battery life. Would Phoenix make a difference?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Mutiny32:
Just a FYI, Lithium-Ion batteries don't hold a memory like NiCad batteries did. It is also NOT good to drain them all the way down.

Do I have to wipe anything?
[Epic 4G Android Development] bigdbag:
My god. I was highly skeptical of this but I tried a quick version of the instructions.

I did the following:

1. Charge to 100% while phone = ON

2. Once at 100%, unplug charger and turn phone OFF

3. Plug in charger for 5 minutes while phone = OFF

4. Unplug charger and turn phone ON

5. Leave phone ON for 5 minutes

6. Plug in charger for 5 minutes while phone = OFF

and the results... are miraculous. I'm running Phoenix Kernel v.1.43 and stock rom w/ drm removed.

I'm pretty sure Wi-Fi use helped you out quite a bit also.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bigdbag:
Compared to what I was getting before on wifi it's a huge difference still. I'll be out and about today so I shall see if it holds true again on mostly 3g.
[Epic 4G Android Development] LSanna1488:

[Epic 4G Android Development] omair2005:
thanks for the suggestion. I"m trying it out today and will report back. One change I made is to install SetCPU. My settings are, 1200/200 conservative.

[Epic 4G Android Development] zenvita:
Best advice ever. 50% increase! Thank you!
[Epic 4G Android Development] muyoso:
Do you do this on a daily basis or just once in a while? I ask because charging the phone for 10 hours everyday would of course lead to better battery life because half of the day its charging.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sacwoo:
Going to try this tomorrow, for those that have done this....

Is this a one time thing or every time I flash a new ROM/Kernel?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Zei:
I do this everytime I flash a new kernel, namely Phoenix's kernel. Im constantly on WiFi and for my phone to last almost 8-10 hours using the net, texting, twitter and download new apps like crazy using 3G should last a least a whole 24

New Kernel
[Epic 4G Android Development] blkr00t:
I tried this all the way through. After that, I flashed the Phoenix 1.49 kernel and calibrated it. My battery went a full 26 hours and was still at 50% when I accidentally plugged it in, wiping out the stats. My wife and I have the same phone and I thought I was plugging up her phone.

I have to say, that following this regimen of training the battery then calibrating it was highly successful for me. What I noticed is that with the Epic Experience and 1.49, full charge is around 97 percent. When I started using my phone sometime early day before yesterday, It was at 95 percent. After 26 hours I had only dropped down from 96% to 50%...I WISH that I hadn't accidentally plugged the phone in so that I could have gotten a screen shot. I was trying to get up above 30 hours unplugged before taking a screenshot. If this holds on this current charge as well as it did yesterday, I'll take a screenshot of the usage.

EDIT:

I forgot to mention that I also removed the DRM apk's: drmprovider.apk, drmUa.apk and sisodrmprovider.apk using Sdx App Remover. This process is listed somewhere here in the forum.
[Epic 4G Android Development] KL4V1CL3:
I've done all the steps and I'm still not getting the abattery life I would like. I drained my battery down from max (bump charged it) in 5 hours yesterday on purpose then did the full charge (bumped it up to max). Today changed all the settings from super battery drain to more conservative settings and only got 6 hours. Drm was killed, airplane fix, setcpu on conservative, juice defender, screen time of a little over an hour. The best battery I've ever gotten was 17 hours with the older mixup kernels on a stock rom.

I'm using EE and the latest phoenix kernel along with shabbypenguin's battery tweak. I just wiped all caches and everything and reinstalled.

Only thing I've been able to find that could be the problem is a the sleep service is consistently using 70%+ cpu according to watchdog, but I think the phone is still sleeping because spare parts tim running is pretty low.

Does anybody have any ideas?
[Epic 4G Android Development] JettMartinez:
When you flash a new kernel, do you the calibration method with the battery stats wipe that's mentioned in the Phoenix thread? Would your steps here fit in before or after the stats wipe?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Shaundizzle:
how often do you recommend doing this?

once a week? just wondering before i try it
[Epic 4G Android Development] nicholishen:
Same question here. It seems like when and how (wiping the stats) has become superstition somewhat like the old nintendo cartridges. Please advise on when to apply the wipe stats in CWM.

look and there is no Black Nexus One as u can see there is only one color available and its grey-brown something

it looks more like x10 but ...dunno what is it but i think definetley its not nexus
[XPERIA X10 General] qwer23:
To me, it looks like a nexus one, and it actually seems to be kind of grey-brown also.

Besides, since this picture isn't from SE, why should anyone test Gingerbread on a X10? Just think of the uncracked bootloader. I don't think SE is throwing around dev-devices with opened bootloaders to everyone out there...

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Liopo:
Thanks to vnamee and helroz for detailled instructions for the Samsung Vibrant Firmware JI6, Just did this on my GT-I9000T and it works great.

Here are the steps to perform the unlock:

You will need root and busybox and something to edit the root, such as Root Explorer or ADB, I used Super Manager, You will need Java on your PC as well.

1) Copy the EFS folder with Root Explorer or ADB to back up

2) In /efs, delete:

nv_data.bin.md5

.nv_data.bak (you may not have this)

.nv_data.bak.md5 (you may not have this)

nv_data.JPC (you may not have this)

nv_data.JPC.md5 (you may not have this)

.nv2.bak (you may not have this)

.nv2.bak.md5 (you may not have this)

3) Reboot your phone and navigate to /efs to see if nv_data.bin.md5 is created. If it is, you are good to go. If you go there right after the phone boots, it may not have been created yet.

4) Put your phone in USB debug mode and connect via USB to computer.

5) Run step 2.bat (this will extract nv_data.bin to your computer)

6) Run reparation_nv_data.jar (I guess you just enter any 8 digit number in the boxes that will be your unlock code. I had entered '00000000'.

7) Run Step 4.bat (this will upload the files to your phone. Make sure the phone is on and when you run it, make sure to keep pressing 'allow' so the program has root access to push the files to your root).

8) After this is done, you can answer 'n' if there were no errors and it should reboot your phone. Phone should be unlocked.

;)

After a lot of reading a bit of fiddling around, I unlocked the I9000T I got from Claro Guatemala. I'll add all the nasty details including links later, but here is the quick and dirty ...

1) Rooted using update.zip from recovery mode.

2) Ran Galaxy S Unlock from Market/Play. I believe that modifies nvbin.

3) Flashed the 3 button Fix to get rid of the funky bootloaders Claro provided.

4) Swapped SIM cards. No Network Lock screen appeared. Success!

I downloaded the leaked froyo firmware to my captivate hoping it would solve a lot of the issues of lag but it still lags a lot like it's a phone from 2006. I downloaded the Ryan ZA one click lag fix and it still lags. I wanted to put voodoo on it but I have froyo and I don't think it will allow me to do it...what the heck is the problem and why is there so much hacking I have to do to get it to run smooth. The HTC Aria runs blazingly fast and quick from what I read and this Super Phone Galaxy S runs slower than a Hero? If anybody has an answer I'd like to know or if someone can offer some suggestions on how to improve this. It's pretty annoying.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] designgears:
Its called RFS... call up samsung and complain to them about it...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kaik541:
so many problems with this

a) wrong section, Q&A or general please

b) notice that word "leaked" in what you said? it means this isn't OFFICIAL, which means it likely ISN'T the final release, so it's bound to have at least some bugs.

c) ryanza lagfix is placebo and awful and doesn't work at all (on top of that, ext2 is a bad choice)

d) if you understood how/where the lag was coming from, you'd know why voodoo is "necessary" on 2.1

e) the aria is built EXTREMELY different from the captivate, it's like comparing the iphone to the nokia n8... yes they're both android, but they're built different which leads to complications

f) voodoo is not yet available for 2.2 because we don't have source code for 2.2 (again, if you knew how voodoo worked, you'd know why it wasn't instant)... we can hack it in with initramfs, and there are people working on it... but it isn't top priority

g) and shockingly a SMALLER piece of hardware with a SMALLER resolution made by a company known for making quality android phones runs smoother? shocker. honestly.

h) if you actually had any other real world interactions with other android phones, you'd know the lag is occasional but not unusual (hell I've seen just as bad or worse on the droid x before)

i) I suggest you read, read, read, search, read, read, and think before you make posts like the above (why on earth you thought this belongs in development is beyond me)

/rant
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajendra82:
There are two kinds of lag. I/O lag is caused by the delays in accessing data stored on your phone in some partition. This is largely due to the use of RFS by Samsung, and the voodoo lag fix gets rid of most of that. Unfortunately there is no voodoo on Captivate leaked Froyo yet, as the source code has not yet been released by Samsung. The OCLF type fixes will help some by masking this lag when the amount of data being written and read is small. When a large amount of data is involved, these fixes will lag, as they still sit on top of RFS.

There is a second kind of lag due to memory shortage. This will hit you after the phone has been on for a while. This is similar to the paging seen on Windows, where the data has to be fetched from the hard disk. This type of lag is best fixed by installing a memory management application. The one I use is called Autokiller. Despite its name, it is not a task killer. What it does is make sure that a certain amount of RAM is always free. I use the strict profile, and my phone can go days without having to be rebooted.
