I've been having ok battery life on AIO 0.1 (around 15-20 hrs) and I've used most of the usual changes in tweaKr,

governor: ondemand

oc'd: 1.1

smartcpu installed

low memory killer: conservative

I/O: noop

SDcard read ahead: 3072

VM config: NewGuys

voltage tuning: took everything down by 50

It seems like my battery life is low compared to others. I was wondering if anyone had any other suggestions or tips like turning off compache, etc.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] misfit61871:
Try getting your voltages as low as you can instead of taking them down by 50, the lower you can get each one and have your phone run good really helps bat life

Hey all, long time cm7 fanboy here, running latest mexdroidmod :) i like it so far, very fast! Just wondering if there is a stable undervolt table anywhere? Thnx guys, rom looks sick so far, think ill stick with this til some decent ICS roms hit!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ArmedandDangerous:
Every phone is different. Start dropping volts by 50 until it's no longer stable.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] TheNewGuy:
Glad to see you here! I have seen you in the cm7 nightly thread for a while..you are very active there. I hope you enjoy meXdroidMod just as much!

As you know each phone is a little different. So you will need to use tweakr to find the values that work well with your phone. You can apply the voltage to test it with out making a startup script.. so if it freezes or crashes the voltage should be back to stock when you reboot. Then when you are happy with the levels, you can use tweakr to make a startup script that will set those levels very early in the bootup procedure. Happy hunting! :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ptesmoke:
Thanks guys for the input. Hehe yes i frequent quite a few threads here, love keeping up. Ok ill do some voltage testing, was just curious if someone had a slightly undervolted stable table to start off with. Thnx again ill be back!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kingston73:
I don't know if this is a Mex thing, a cm7 thing, or my phone specifically but my GPS takes a long time to lock a and only locks when I use navigation. Using maps, endomoto or even GPS tools it won't lock or even show the GPS symbol.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] misfit61871:
Have you updated your radio recently? If so try matching the ril's and doing an efs wipe, that usually resolves the GPS lock problems.

You can flash radios there is a thread about it in the Dev forum. If you are still using the stock radio then you might want to look into flashing the newest radio.

Ok i have no idea what rils are in this rom, but i am seeing 9dbm better signal in my same test spot. All i changed was from cm7 to this, with a full wipe including efs. Im on latest radio, and i only flashed the gps ril from .04.03 radio to fix my gps. Not complaining! Just observing i have better sig strength on this compared to cm7.

Undervolted today, have 20% more battery than normal at this time. First day on this rom tho so ill see how it evens out.

Thanx guys for a great rom, i like it because it still has the cm tweaks that ive grown to need. So glad this device has such awesome roms! Wish i could say the same for mmy wifes liquid metal!

Rename it to PC10IMG.zip and move it to root of sd card than shut off phone. Press power and volume down to get hboot screen than follow directions >volume up to update radio.

Remember to rename the PC10IMG.zip to something else when done in order to avoid booting into hboot later.

I would like to know others opinions about matching rils for the radio. Some say it helps and some say there is no need or that they are not compatible to our roms.

I am currently not using them but really cannot tell a difference from when I did use them.

Yay or nay...what say you?

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ptesmoke:
In my experiences i have noticed signal improvements on cm7 with ril matching. Have not tried it on this rom because my signal is stronger than ever stock! Eventually i may try matching, but from what i was using im seeing improved battery life as well as signal strength just with the stock install of this rom. :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] misfit61871:
I have noticed improvement after marching the ril's and I have also noticed that some people say it does make a diff and some say it doesn't.

All I know for sure is that for the couple days before I matched, my signals were poor in areas where I used to get good signals and when I matched the signals were much better, so I say yay.

And this had been the case every time I flash a radio, and I also match them manually.

Well since you guys offered your help earlier here it goes.

I was adding icons to my rom on the HD2 . I just used WinRar to move icons to tmy Redux AOSP system apks from some theme manager themes apps. Everything seems to be working fine. I just wanted to know of there is anything else I should transfer with the icons? I just don't know where to post a question like this since I didn't use apk manager just used WinRar, it took forever but I got it done lol

I wanted to add my own touch to the icons or try to make some but I don't have any editing software. since cash is tight do you guys have any free software options I could use at least to resize pictures and convert pictures to png format. Also what apk our software did you guys use to make the video of your rom?

If one of you guys could point me in the right direction I would really appreciate it and thanks for taking your time to read this

oh yea I opened a thread for the themed rom I put together. Check it out and let me know what you think but take it easy on me and remember I didn't create any files, I just put it together

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] TheNewGuy:
I am not sure about the app to take a video. Mj usually handels that...

As for the icons... there is nothing else you need to do other then drop the properly named icons into the drawable-hdpi folder in the respective .apk... told you it wasn't complicated...just takes time! Lol

And as for free editing software... that's easy... it is called "GIMP". Also, "blender" and "inkscape" they are all free open source image editing software that can compete with photoshop or adobe...

Hope this helps, and

let us know how things are going.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mexicandroid:
Are these programs for windows? And where can I get them from?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mjybarr:
Checked out your thread. Nice work! Programs to edit pngs...I use gimp and I have also used paint.net. Both are pretty nice programs. And they are free. The app I use to make the videos is called screen cast, which is on the market.

Thanks misfit, I just read through that thread and it doesn't seem too difficult, but I'm going to test reception in some areas first before I do it. My biggest question is how do I reverse things if changing the rils makes things worse?

EDIT: I just used SPeedtest to check my home reception and got 3959 kbps, with 3 bars of 4g. The best I ever used to get here was 1 bar and maybe 1500 kbps at best, so apparently the new radio alone worked pretty well.

Its not hard. But the statusbar and pulldown background are in the SystemUI.apk. Inside the drawable-hdpi you will see a .png named shade_bg.png open it with gimp and select the transparency and increase it to what you want. Or just use gimp to select the background and delete it...this will make a blank .png of the right size and then just drop it in the .apk.......

However, we made some cool new suff in the SystemUI.apk this time, so if you wait till the release you *might* change your mind about what you want to do with your theme.. :)

But that's how it is done. Lmk if you have more questions.

Well when tweakr is install it makes a folder on your sd card and inside that folder us a reset zip, so you reboot into recovery select install from sd card and navigate to the tweakr folder and execute the zip. That will give you a clean slate in tweakr.

I think the next release will probably fix that bug, it's happened to me like 5 or 6 times.

I don't know if it works universally, but flashing the newest radio helped me a lot. I was having gps issues and poor reception and flashing the .19(?) radio fixed both. I didn't match RILS, just flashed the radio.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ArmedandDangerous:
One quick question, when installing new radios, is it recommended to EFS wipe first? And if I just do an EFS wipe, will it return to the stock ROM radios?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kingston73:
I'm still learning this stuff myself so take this with a grain of salt, but I flashed the new radio first and then used the EFS wipe tool afterwards. Everything worked fine for me. From what I understand, the EFS wipe basically resets your GPS information, it has nothing to do with the radio. Each step is independent and you could do either step without the other, but when you flash a new radio it's recommended you wipe your efs.

I believe the GPS is tied to the radios, like how WiFi and GSM/CDMA are also radios. I could be wrong though :D

Right, I didn't mean to say the gps performance wasnt due to the radio, i just meant you can flash a radio independent to wiping the efs.
