My GPS is always left on. The GPS is not running unless and app requires it. From my experience, I just let it use the GPS because it lasts only a few seconds. It becomes a problem when it happens every 30 mins or so.

I stopped using it and have moved on to ADW EX. I would jump back to SPB the moment someone figures out a way to disable the GPS feature for good. Like I said earlier, if you deny it access to your location, it will cause massive wakelocks because it keeps trying but the phone keeps rejecting it.

Thanks bro.

Hmm, maybe I should wait for the TSF Shell 3D Pro instead unless someone has an idea how to solve SPB Shell GPS issue

Hi guys, i'm back again, with lots of questions. Hope you guys won't mind so much.

1. Major problem: BATTERY WON'T LAST LONG! (Yes I've followed Samsung's instructions to drain the battery first before charging for 8 hours long). Listening to music thru earphones for 2 hours only used 3% of battery, but other's, wow.

My usage for today:
user posted image

Any ideas? (i DID: Turn off WiFi all day, turn down the brightness, i DID NOT turn on data as i don't have a data plan)

2. You know those background running apps? I got a appkiller and with that app, i found out that all the apps are popping up secretly. And after i killed them, they kept on started to run secretly (even the samsung app killer doesn't show them).

THESE APPS (SOME OF THEM I DIDN'T EVEN LAUNCHED THEM) KEPT ON RUNNING IN BACKGROUND
user posted image

Hey, any ideas how to stop them?

3. z4root won't work? i tried both temporary and permanent root but nothing happened?

4. Do I need an SD card for this phone?

5. This phones hanged twice, i mean, REALLY HANG.

6. GPS software for this device? (e.g. PAPAGO)?

7. Where to get cheap and nice accessories for this phone? (Speaker dock, portable battery, etc.)

8. Will you spend RM88 for a silicone case and RM188 for a flip pouch for this phone?

Awaiting for your reply. (it's rather long, sry about that, try to remove the images in my quote) THANKS IN ADVANCE!

What kernel your using? Abyss? Any UV and whats your freq range?
Also i dun see a need for setting additional sleep governor. If your device is functioning well it should be in deep sleep most of the time so it make no difference what governor or freq your using when in sleep.

yeah, Abyss..

currently using conservative with min 200000 and max 1200000

previously was on savagedZen with same voltage freqs

first of all, get rid of samsung bloatware, second it seems to me certain software is causing wakelock. thrid stop using any task killer. fourth SD is not a must unless u got not enough space. GPS can try sygic. can try lowyat plaza for accessories. and no never in my life i will ever ever EVER buy a casing that cost more than rm20, and i dont use flip pouch. hope this helps biggrin.gif

What was your problem again ah? Phone cannot wakeup? Its usually cos by too much UV or too low CPU speed used. Like i said dun use sleep profile, it is more troublesome and dun save you anything noticeable.

Most of the power drain is from the screen. Can you post a SS of your graph (press the mini graph at the top) and your display info.

1) Exit apps properly
2) Some services/app need to run and will continue to do so even after you kill it. So stop killing them.
3) Most of the time these apps do not add to your batt drain unless its a rogue app causing wakelock. All they do is consume your ram which you have plenty
4) If you dun like an app showing up just uninstall it.
