Snap shot doesn't mean jack without Screen on-time.

With RoyalGinger and the 2.4.6 kernel bundled with it I did 36 hours with 8% remaining. But my Screen on-time was only 2hrs. I can make my phone last for close to 48hrs if I turned it on and tossed it in a dresser drawer. So what were your results for screen on-time?

EDIT:: I noticed you were using wi-fi calling and phone calls is on your list. Thats actually pretty decent battery life with that all on. But still interested in what your screen time was.

Another Great Kernel

Installed latest kernel after install of CM7 v7 stable and its running great, seems a bit faster than the last with RC4 :D. Thanks Faux123 for your hard work and your overwhelming support to everyone.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] fsrick:
I am using CM7 rc4. it seems my wifi does not go to sleep anymore after i flash the latest bfs lv kernel. I am using the smartass setting.

my wifi sleep is enable. how can i check if my wifi goes to sleep when the screen is off?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jaychym:
First way that comes to mind is check the router to see if your phone is still connected? The wifi sleep time isn't instantly when you turn off your screen its some time after IDK the exact time.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Lakeshow423:
Faux did you change anything on the latest kernel? My range and dload have dropped. I am using the latest BFS LV version. The past kernels have gotten to "sense" status on wifi dload and range but it seems to drop on the latest version. Thanks!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] faux123:
Nope. The wifi driver is exactly the same as cm7 built-in kernel.

[myTouch 4G Android Development] fsrick:
but it is a school wifi, i do not have access to the router and i do not have a router handy.

i wait over an hour and wake up my phone, the wifi indicator is there still. i can see it pops back up and reconnect before. maybe now it wakes up so fast i cannot even tell:p

[myTouch 4G Android Development] jigajay:
Fixed my jumping issue when recording a video on cm 7.0.0 stable release now just wish my swipe down gesture would work to open/close notification's I really got used to that.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] thederekjay:
I love UD :D its is def one of the best. Stable and fast, everything works w/o issue...
[myTouch 4G Android Development] ziggy34:
There last nightly (#39) fixed the swipe gesture.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] gaww:
Off topic, but does "everything" include WiFi Calling, Hotspots, Bluetooth, GPS, Email (not Gmail0, and testing? Also (on topic), How does it work with this kernel?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] macheteZen:
Can confirm Wifi Calling, Bluetooth, GPS, Genius Button all work flawlessly, GPS sync in 10 sec. Also just fyi, the annoying call delay when answering a call on CM is gone, and the battery drain is almost nothing compared to what I would experience on CM7. Make a nandroid and take ud for a spin I think you will be impressed. And as always thank you to faux for his amazing kernel work and dedication to Android Development in general! :D

EDIT:Forgot to mention that it is kernel #109 (2.4.8 BFS) I am using.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] TmobileDash12:

A lot of custom roms kang cm... it wasnt about using cm source, it was about noy giving credit to cm... to each is own. I really don't want to thread Jack faux anymore... so that's all I really will say
[myTouch 4G Android Development] UntamedDeviance:
And that is on CM7 stable and moderate to heavy usage.... looking for a new house so I have been using data/wifi often and making plenty of calls
[myTouch 4G Android Development] :
Faux I get this weird lag on bfs lv kernel I have launcher pro, widgets locker, plume, facebook running. And set cpu running seem to randomly lag. Here a logcat.

http://db.tt/9H5wnwP
[myTouch 4G Android Development] faux123:
BFS have some compatibility issues... I will look into it, but it will be low priority...
[myTouch 4G Android Development] :
Thanks
[myTouch 4G Android Development] gaww:
FYI - I get slightly better measured speeds (quadrant - but same on linpack) with CFS lv and no issues. You might want to give that one a try.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] faux123:
Quick Announcement:

BFS version 3.6.3 is coming soon ;) ... ALL of my kernels were using BFS version 3.3.0 Hopefully newer BFS will resolve most of App compatibility issues :D
[myTouch 4G Android Development] XxKOLOHExX:
AWESOME SAUCE!!! LOL can't wait till it comes out :-)
[myTouch 4G Android Development] faux123:
Kernel Version 2.5.0 is OUT with brand new BFS version 3.6.3... Read OP for Complete details
[myTouch 4G Android Development] TeeJay3800:
Just wanted to bring up that the person in this thread says their phone experienced serious issues after flashing an older version of this kernel (#107). I don't personally have any proof that this kernel caused the problem, but it sounds that way based on the description. Just an FYI.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] everest.deth:
Highly doubt flashing the kernel had anything to do with it. worst thing on an ideal scenario would be that the ROM fails to load and/or the recovery gets borked. Fastboot should still be an option and that is more than enough to bring it back to life.

He must have missed something else on his description.

Edit: BTW faux, awesome job on the new kernel :) thanks

blah
[myTouch 4G Android Development] TeeJay3800:
I agree totally, although it doesn't sound like he has the engineering SPL, so fastboot isn't an option.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] everest.deth:
He should call T-Mo and say that all of the sudden the device just wont power on :)

blah
[myTouch 4G Android Development] lanternslight456:
Hey Faux, reading the OP and wanted to mention, Royal Ginger 1.5 and later are based on the newer CM (can't remember the nightly number but post RC 3. It is now safe for RG to use the kernels. I figured the OP could use an update.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] irrelephant:
damn you faux, as soon as i go back to stock you update gingerbread kernels and stock, now i have to flash back to see what better things you bring to the table.... that is after i flash you sense kernel, hehe!!! keep up the good work bro!!!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] keyboardr:
And you wonder why device manufacturers are being "evil" by locking and signing their bootloaders. I'm not saying they should, but we should do our part to not force them to. If your phone fails due to a hardware issue, by all means get it fixed under warranty. If your phone fails because you bricked it, you knew the risks going in and it's not the manufacturer's fault.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] staulkor:
Just wanted to say all the BFS LV versions are extremely unstable on my phone when the CFS LV versions worked fine (as of a few versions ago, havent tried the latest CFS).
[myTouch 4G Android Development] faux123:
Bfs sux man... I wrote this so faux can wipe his phone spend time reinstall all his apps just to prove how sucky ass his bfs kernel was. Gawd, I hate faux's bfs kernel so unstable as hell, he sux by releasing an unstable kernel to piss off people. I wish he just quit making kernels because he is such a suck ass dev ...:(
[myTouch 4G Android Development] :
BFS sounds great in theory but it's just not quite refined enough yet, I'm sure google kept CFS since that switching to BFS provided no discernible benefit in blind testing. Which isn't surprising; from what I understand of BFS, on the workload typical of a smartphone, it probably won't be noticeably different. Faux your a good dev just consider the mytouch 4g as a practice phone. Till the sensation 4g =d if you really to hear people complain add sbc.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] irrelephant:
faux, you know your kernels are the best of the best!!! i think we have another hater that didnt listen/read/follow instructions!!!

on another note, watch the video in my sig, it will give you a laugh:D
[myTouch 4G Android Development] everest.deth:
Come on man, don't take it hard when one person seems to have issues with one of your kernels, The majority of us are really happy to have them. I am running the BFS, and yes, my battery life is not the best, but i get 8 - 10 hours of extreme performance at ~1840 and all the apps i use run as i expect them to. Scrolling through panes and app catalogs is as smooth as it can be, and mario kart 64 actually runs with a minor to no lag thanks to this. I know you will see posts from people who had some inconveniences but that is because the majority of the guys who use it and don't have problems don't post as much :)

Thanks for your hard work Faux :cool:
[myTouch 4G Android Development] :
Faux did you give up on adding havs to the kernel. I don't see it sorry if I missed it somewhere. I really think you should add sbc to those that know what their doing.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] daprince047:
I personally wouldn't waste my time posting this I just wouldn't use it and keep shut or give positive feedback on the kernel that works for you
[myTouch 4G Android Development] itzsmokey:
Niiice

Hmmm with the updated kernel and latest CM ROM my phone is running the most stable since I first took it out the box....great work
[myTouch 4G Android Development] faux123:
Havs is not needed on our chip. It was designed for older chip like nexus one. Qualcomm is extremely secretive with their chip documentation almost impossible to program...
[myTouch 4G Android Development] :
He said nothing negative faux says that all the time. I actually think he copies and paste it. Without feedback he can't know what's wrong. Though everyone should post a logcat with problems. This makes people not want to post comments. To help developers out not everyone has the knowledge and even developers can miss things that the average user can find.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] faux123:
That might be true when Google first evaluated bfs a while back. Remember, bfs was first out in 2009, bfs has since undergone quite a few revisions. I believe bfs is becoming more mature and it is getting better since 2009, IMHO I believe it has potential to become the default desktop scheduler.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] faux123:
I agree with this. Posts with issues are welcome of course. Posts like the ones I highlighted does nothing useful at all except wasting what little time I have...
[myTouch 4G Android Development] lanternslight456:
Personally, I use the heck out of my phone and even using the BFS with it set to 1.1-1.5 with MinMax gov I have no problems. I've run emulators and everything, no problems. Linpac and Quadrant even get Great scores. (Irrelevant I know, but some people gripe about it)

I see no compatibility problems at all honestly.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] :
Yeah there is it's plume when you go into the settings menu will either freeze or force close and launcer pro takes some effect as well with alot of widgets on the home screen it will lag at randomly most all the other apps will be ok. I noticed adw ex doesn't seem to be affected by this.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] lanternslight456:
I'm not 100% on what you're saying glitches becasue I use Launcher Pro Plus and other than the force close at boot I get no problems. I play in the settings all the time and have no freezes. I use lots of widgets, screen on off animations, I don't use a live wallpaper, but that's mostly to conserve battery life. I have had zero of these 'compatibility issues" I've never used adw ex, though I've used the free one.

Weird
[myTouch 4G Android Development] kaufmanj67:
Hey faux quick? Know your busy I have been porting themes like a mad man since sense 2.1 got ported and have hit a snag I'm on royalpep with cwm 3.0.0.6 and can't get sdext to save my life read thru OPs nothing about what is supported is it a kernel or rom thing there is a rom fix over in leedroid thread that I can port for apps2sd but wanted to ask first really want to show off my work but don't want to have to re-write my update zips for such a small issue of sdext not mounted error
[myTouch 4G Android Development] LOONEyRR:
What's with everyone havin issues? Are u guys wiping the caches before u install these kernals? I havent had 1 fc yet.everything works great.I'm running RG with csf lv 2.5.0, with1.5max 576min on smartass and every thing is quick,smooth and legit.battery is the only thing that isn't the greatest but I'm on my phone alll the time so I don't expect it to be amazing. I also use "auto memory manager"i like to think that seems to work. I have it on aggressive. and I know none cares about quadrant but this is what I have. Just incase anyone wants to take a gander :p thanks bro for these great kernals!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] lanternslight456:
Hey Faux, 2 things

#1. Running the newest CFS on my phone, it's badass, great work, thanks!

#2. Saw that Rom Manager now supports Kernels via Kernel Manager. Have you heard of this? Will you be adding your work there? I do everything manually but it would be REALLY COOL to see there!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] dragone5:
I haven't seen any issues running latest cfs and royal ginger 1.5. Thanks faux!!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] ckisgen:
faux - i flashed your latest BFS kernel and it made my penis shrink by 2" !!

i've tried wiping the caches and rebooting but it hasn't grown back

please fix this immediately or update your OP to caution others about this issue
[myTouch 4G Android Development] :
Bfs faux makes MIUI fly its scary thanks for your hard work.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] kaufmanj67:
Found a script that fixs the ext3/ext4 problem by swapping it over will post it when get a ok if any body cares
[myTouch 4G Android Development] faux123:
I somehow completed overlooked your first post a page back... So are you ok now? Let me know if you need help from me...
[myTouch 4G Android Development] kaufmanj67:
Yeah seems to be working any chance there will be a kernel for 2.3 sense roms that will support ext4 or should I start asking for a new cwm recovery since the one we got will only format ext4????
[myTouch 4G Android Development] faux123:
I can supply a kernel that's compatible with GingerSense, but the kernel is CM7 based which in itself a hacked Froyo Kernel... HTC has not released the true GB kernel for Glacier and I don't have enough free time and a spare phone to hack the desire S kernel to work with Glacier :(

Here's the kernel for Ginger Sense, you also need to download my 2.5.0 zip to get the wifi modules to go along with this... rename it to boot.img and adb push your phone...

The File ==> GingerSense kernel <==
[myTouch 4G Android Development] kaufmanj67:
Thanks nice to have another option going to test this script a few more times then ill post it over in royalpep would be nice to just have a recovery that would let you format your ext however you want too lol

K back to work LOL so was just checking out koush's get hub and there is a any kernel script and since I can't even post correct way LOL thought would ask the kernel god how does this work and can I use it like theme porter?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] kaufmanj67:

[myTouch 4G Android Development] faux123:
Yeah it should... Let me know if you run into issues
[myTouch 4G Android Development] ralphsancho:
thank you!

Flashed the Interactive- Low Voltage with cm 7 build #41 clear cache and dalvik cache and clear the battery stats after having charged the phone to 100%...

and this is so awesome it didn't just make it speedier it took 2.5 hours to go down to 99% on wifi + regular texting. I wouldn't consider it heavy use but I did use it regularly and have never seen it last so long.

Of course the next 2% went by in one hour with the same amount of usage and so far each 1% is going about every fifteen minutes on the same usage.

Which would mean 25 hours of battery life if it keeps steady the rest of the way.

This might mean nothing to you but the main point is that this kernel works wonderfully and has made my battery last about twice as long already while keeping my phone cooler on heavy use times.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] theinitial21:
did you flash CFS or BFS?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] theinitial21:
BFS, nvm i didnt read it. thanks for the info tho
[myTouch 4G Android Development] clamder:
Unfortunately, that's the way the battery looks when it drains. The 1st 1% takes a long time to drain. Afterwards, it drains REALLY quickly. You should check your graph at the end of the day to see exactly how long your battery lasts.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] theinitial21:
What one would u recommend using?

[myTouch 4G Android Development] paczek:
#123
[myTouch 4G Android Development] faux123:
Version 2.5.1 is OUT!!!!

Added Zinx's latest fix for Glacier's Video Frame Buffer. This should fix video playback hard lockup if screen is suddenly turn off either via power button or power savings.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] everest.deth:
Hey faux, im running royal mint atm (sense based), now that you released the new 2.5.1, can i download the ginger sense kernel quoted and just push the wifi modules from the new 2.5.1? Or should i push the .ko from 2.5.1?

Thanks for the support

[myTouch 4G Android Development] RnRexpress3423:
I read the whole post and while I haven't flashed a kernel in a few weeks, it says to use the latest tweaks, we have to have 2.4.8. Where do I find this file so I can have the latest and greatest kernal?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] radamo:
Does this also address the issue of the screen not turning back on when it goes into "sleep" mode without video being used? I kept getting my phone unable to turn the screen back on.

Thanks,

RA
[myTouch 4G Android Development] darinmc:
Read the second post in the thread. Any older relevant kernels are there.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] paczek:
I have to say this is the best kernel yet. Running #127 and battery life is way better than cm7's. It shows better signal and speed too, tho not sure if that is the kernel or not. Keep up the awesome work faux
[myTouch 4G Android Development] ralphsancho:
a day later...

Yea what I meant was that usually that first 1% goes by in one hour while this time it lasted 2.5 hours.. anyways heres the end of the day and my update in battery life.

26 hours and im still at 10%.. so i give it 30 hours not bad at all usually only last 20 on the same usage..

the fast decline was a session of 3D online gaming + media playing

One thing though, I never ever use wifi-calling, its disabled and somehow its responsible for 6% of the drainage... I'm think im going to be removing it..

attached the graph and percentages + 2 of my home screens for funsies
[myTouch 4G Android Development] kaufmanj67:
That go for lee's version too? You rock man
[myTouch 4G Android Development] faux123:

[myTouch 4G Android Development] RnRexpress3423:
Thanks man. Totally slipped my mind that revisions and everything were under the first post. I just wanted to flash my kernel.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] everest.deth:
Hey, can anybody post the 2.1.5 Version? , I tried flashing the 2.5.1 on Royal Mint and just like the OP says, I SHOULD HAVE stayed with 2.1.5 xD

I tried pushing the modules from /system/lib/modules but even after that my wifi wont power on so i want to go back :P Any body? on the OP it shows deprecated :(

Thanks!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] :
abd shell (or terminal) and type this

chmod 777 /system/lib/modules/bcm4329.ko after you push it.

[myTouch 4G Android Development] everest.deth:
What permissions do the 777 bring to the table?

I had actually extracted the boot.img from the ROM and flashed it via fastboot, worked like a charm.

Thanks for the reply though :)

[myTouch 4G Android Development] darinmc:
Since there are two different versions of the kernel, please be clear in which kernel you are using and provide detailed information regarding rom build, situation, etc. Otherwise it's just a comment board.
