Getting very good battery life from Speedmod. No wifi wakelocks and nearly 3 hours of display time with 30 huors without charging.

Using which rom?

Stock XWLP8

Hmm maybe I should try speedmod hmm.gif

Performance wise? Speed/smoothness
Eh really? Always felt aosp roms are heavier, slower than stock tongue.gif
*
Performance wise it's good. Same like Siyah at least.

QUOTE(antt00 @ Apr 25 2012, 03:36 PM)
Speedmod is only for samsung rom. Dun go flashing on AOKP.  tongue.gif No lar smoothness is always aosp win. The best place i notice is the folders on my Nova launcher. AOSP/KP very smooth scrolling, samsung rom there are lags.

Pikachu is always on stock rom. Question is which one.  tongue.gif
*
Yeah, Samsung ROMs only. Wah, you know my preference. :S

The wifi wakelocks is a big problem sad.gif

Seems like Siyah enables NetBIOS requests on the phone that makes the phone never go to sleep.

Please get your facts right as iPhone can do the 1st and 2nd with no problem.

Maybe he was using last outdated iOS? I know that iOS 1 and 2 didn't have this feature. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Check BetterBatteryStats to see what's the wakelocks that are causing the drain.

Already check. No other app was causing the drain. Only kernel values were there.
Wifi was on during that time though but with Siyah I only lost 2% in 4 hours while idle with wifi on :hmm
*
Paste your BBS log? Sometimes kernel flashing can produce unstable battery readings. Need a few hours to let it settle.

Nope. At least with my app protector pro it won't work. Just crash and I can't get into my protected app.

Which app protector? Let me try.

Ask pikachu make a script for you to run with script manager on startup.

Prefer good old superuser. Some app got problem with super su.

Yeah, I can make a script that can do this smile.gif

And yes, SuperSU is buggy, nearly impossible to update the binary in some kernels.

How much sms/call do you use? tongue.gif

I use about 100+ sms a month but nowadays I try to cut down by using whatsapp tongue.gif

Calls around 50 minutes/month. So they're roughly:

SMS: (50X 0.05) + (50X0.15) = RM2.50+RM7.50=RM10

Calls: (25X 0.12) + (25X0.20) = RM3+RM5=RM8

So I spend around less than RM20 on call/sms only biggrin.gif

-----------------------------------------------------

What about yours?
*
I use Umobile with free 30 SMS and 100minutes of calls. Every month I use 50+SMSes with lots of whatsapp/google talk. Almost 100mins of calls. Hence my bill is around 30ish with RM28 being the mobile internet for 500MB.

anyone in here have test this app, Provision Optimizer Premium Need opinion after you had enable Virtual Memory (Swap), of course it consume my internal memory space for memory swap but i got to admit, it's friggin' fast... at my side already tune 4096.. just awesome... just wondering how fast if the phone already built in RAM for more than 1GB
*
Employing swap in a 1GB RAM phone is not useful actually. Swap is mostly used for phones that have low RAM in the first place.

Respect your opinion, pikachu... That is my intention for posting it. To be frank i can feel slightly difference before and after install this app... You can even try it..
*
The init.d scripts are based on ThunderBolt! (or something along those lines). I'm not sure since I didn't buy the app. If you look at your /etc/init.d and tell me the scripts, I can probably determine where they come from.

Already replied smile.gif

Lots of sloppy job in the init.d script. Not sure where to begin >.<

Probably copied from a lot of sources and slapped together.

I would think that you will get better results with ThunderBolt! as I see some parts of the script come from it (hence I guess that's where your performance is attributed from).

Ah yea TB, last piece in the puzzle I need lol

Been meaning to use it actually. Erm, wanted to ask:

- Is it compatible with aosp? (currently on hydrogenics)
- Think I tried last time, but when I used the restore file, I got bootloops. Don't think I redownloaded from your thread since the last time I used it, any chance something has changed for ICS?
- Init.d tweaks come before services like NSTools right? Was kinda lazy to amend script everytime I wanted something changed tongue.gif
*
Yes, it's compatible. Only the main CWM zip, not the addons. The restore file for AOSP isn't there unless you provide these files:
/system/bin/app_process
/system/bin/system_server
/system/lib/libsqlite.so
/system/lib/libsqlite_jni.so

Yes, init.d should come before NSTools.

pikachu, when you say main cwm, it also includes the extra steps like using script manager to run the sql, zipalign and mountings in boltscripts, those steps are okay for ics, right?
*
Yes. All those are compatible (though refer to the 2nd post of my main thread for descriptions of each one). Only use the one you want to, not all.

QUOTE(ellimist @ May 5 2012, 03:58 PM)
Ah cool, thanks alot pika. Will provide you with the files later tonight, can help me build a restore file just in case? smile.gif

Will flash your main CWM zip tonight biggrin.gif Really missed how awesome it made my phone back on CR6 biggrin.gif
*
Yeah, just provide the link to the restore files.

restore files

Many thanks pika smile.gif

Oh, wanted to ask as well, in my init.d, seem to have stuff that came with the ROM, including:

00check
01zipalign
02sysctl
03firstboot
05freemem
06removecache
07fixperms
09cron
10sdboost
98tweaks (this one seems to say remount,noatime,barrier=0,nobh. for system, data and cache, which I thought was something similar to yours.

Wondering if these stuff would create conflicts, maybe I should delete some of em?
*
Upload the files. I'll check them smile.gif
