Hmm checkrom still serving me well, gonna hold up on ICS for abit until later on laugh.gif

Apart from some nifty features here and there, I think it's alot of aesthetics that's the big buzz, not a big deal to me. Ah if only checkrom V5 with jkay is out sad.gif

I don't see why there are so many people still on CheckROM and even more trying to use it. Criskelo's ROM is equal or better in every aspect and can even do more stuff. The wifi issue I had was only present in CheckROM which is supposed to be a very developed ROM while the wifi worked in CM9 which is considered pre-alpha.

Plus, CheckROM is KK5 while Criskelo is already KL1. All the themes and mods that I spent hours downloading and like 8 reboots to recovery to apply in the correct sequence are already implemented into Criskelo's ROM by default.

Haha good question. Just lazy to change I guess? Hmm I'll go have a look at it.

Oh btw what wifi issue?

Edit : Dono if I'm looking at the right thing, but it's an ICS themed rom by default?

I could not connect to my college wifi which used 802.11-EAP. I even tried replacing all the wifi system files in CheckROM with the one's which I had taken from Criskelo. Nothing worked.

Plus, Criskelo comes with this app that allows you to decide what app starts when you double-tap the home button.

Yeah, it is ICS themed by default, but you can always flash other themes if it is compatible with the jkay version. I flashed the ICS theme in my siggy and it works perfectly.

Hmm ok, will explore it a little.

Ah that's a known problem for checkrom? Gotta give it a go one of these days blink.gif

for me battery life more important, eventhou im using 2000Mah battery, i only can get 15 hours maximum with omega ROM, so after getting good feedback from others in here using checkROM, i decide to to try CheckROM, but if u say criskelo's ROM better, then im glad to try it later smile.gif
*
Hmm our setup looks pretty much the same (including the 2kmah and Siyah)

Was wondering, what kinda batt life do you get these days? In terms of total and if possible screen on time

after u got cf root install, go flash checkROM smile.gif via CWM

guys, any version of Siyah Kernel is recommended
i know got changelog but im always skeptical about the latest kernel.... biggrin.gif

i wanna try thunderbolt too...so should i use thunderbolt first or use flash kernel first or the whole thing have to re done for thunderbolt after flashing a new rom?
*
Whichever way should be fine. Since you're gonna flash a kernal, do that first, then thunderbolt (follow instructions)

After u flash a kernal or whatever in the future, follow pikachu's xda thread (think 2nd post, or further down in first post) which tells you to go to particular folders to see if certain files there, or run something in terminal emulator, do determine if tb is there

I'm on the latest version. I thought my screen is big that's why sucks lots of battery but the problem is this is AMOLED, should be saving more energy isn;t it and I din't scale up my brightness. Everyday fully charge, the next day I wake up sure left 30%..... everyday is charging phone man. Damn I wanna go Samsung there diao them haha
*
Doesn't sound normal if you lose 30% while sleeping. Even on stock and G version and everything, shouldn't drop that much if you manage properly.

You probably want to diagnose what exactly is causing the drop first, rather than going over to Samsung. As a start, fully charge, leave it, when drop 30% report back what your battery usage menu says, and proly download betterbatterystats from xda forum to see what's using so much juice

thanks! u saved me sometime as i was gonna do Thunderbolt first....

Truth be told, flashing kernal and thunderbolt are nice quick procedures, unlike say, flashing new rom from wipe and restoring ur shizo from titanium and what nots rclxub.gif

So just be careful and follow instructions properly, and all should go well in just a few mins biggrin.gif

Hmm did you use maps and facebook alot?

As the rest have said, download the app and post it back. From drop down menus, select "partial wakelocks" / "since charged", and post screenshots here. Just the one (or two) screenshot showing the top juice suckers will do

Well if you have syncs and location services such as latitude running in the background, think it's normal to get wakes in the background with screen off.

I use BLN, think that contributes to kernal wakelocks laugh.gif
But I do schedule it to disable past midnight
