Modified files and battety brain - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Do you guys think a modified framework-res could cause a bettery drain?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium

I doubt it, It depends on what you mean by modified ? If it is simple icon / colour changes then no, If it is something that increases the amount of power needed (like modifying auto brightness values or whatever is hidden inside the framework) then yes.
The best way for identifying battery drain is better battery stats, It gives you in-depth info of wakelocks, times, amount of power used, name of app etc etc. Its a really useful app !

Ot wasnt anything major. Just the lock scrren text 'swipe to unlock'

yeah and check loggs for errors, if the modification is not big free and triggering a recurring error it could cause drain.
also a modified framework, could have malware, who knows

Maybe because sometimes I run multiple tasks and next thing you notice is my usage is clocked up to 799/800 and lag is visible!

Either you are drunk or your keyboard has been cheating on you
+1 on the lighter ROM OR
At OP: there is an app called system tuner, where you could decide which applications should start, using that you could have a restricted start up and "might" be able to reduce memory usage.

[Q] No Battery option in Settings?

So it has just occured to me that my O4X has no "Battery" option in the settings menu. How do I see my battery usage then?

It's hidden inside "Power management" (or similar, don't know how it's called).

Thx guys. Found it. Didn't realize it would be there as the options for power saving are not as appealing as Samsung Galaxy S3 and Note 2 (no lowering cpu speed).
Do you happen to know any effective way to save O4X battery without compromising much of the performance? LG Gearbox and CPU Master by antutu don't seem to have any positive effects. ROM Toolbox Pro seems like another joke in this situation too.

That seems to be a good solution.. but with only 530 mAh extra battery, I dont think it'll make much difference. I just don't understand why o4x battery drains so fast..
Also, I noticed some people saying they have better battery life after updating firmware to v10H. Mine is v10e, and I believe v10h is newer and may give better battery life, but does it actually affect?

It actually does quite well I have that battery and it gives me around 18 hours where I got with the normal one around 11 12 hours if even. So there is a difference or buy one with a bigger back what I also have. I am on v10f.

[Q] [solved] CM10.1 lockscreen problem

Hey guys, I got a weird problem since a few hours...

Now i cant change it back, to slide lock... Anyone who had something similar or someone else, who can tell me, how i can resolve this? Thanks in advance

I did it with ADB if my memory serves me right. You may be able to do it through the terminal emulator as well.

Xperia T never sleeps always awake while screen off

Hello All
My Sony Xperia T on 4.1.2 JB UK, always shows Android system as most battery drain and the phone never sleeps when screen is off
I have disabled lots of bloatware apps.
Location off, WiFi off, 3 g off..everything is off..
I use greenify to hibernate app but still phone never sleeps?
Any idea?
Thanks
See screenshots
Repair the phone via pcc. BTW: why are you still using 4.1? Update your phone to 4.3 and report back

Hello if you looked at screenshots, its from betterbatterystats...
Give the phone to sony and let them repair your power button. Then flash a stock 4.3 ftf and report back

I'm sorry, I couldn't see the screenshots before. You'll need a better BBS log, it would be much more reliable if you would post a log from overnight. Those one hour logs can't always give a clear enough picture. Make sure you don't use your phone, so we have a completely idle log.
Check the BBS thread for AlarmManager, that should already give you quote some pointers to work with.

The whole point of doing a thread here is so i don't have to send phone to sony to repair
Even i know i could have the phone repaired! Don't wanna spend money on repair
Phone works fine just the battery issue as mentioned above
Don't want 4.3 due to all the bugs mentioned here

Well, without a better log, we can't help you. 'Android System' contains just too much functions. It shouldn't be a problem to just get an idle log off 4hrs or more, to help solve your problem, right?

In the above quoted thread someone said the majority of the alarm manager wakelooks being Google Talk and Facebook. I concur and think these are among the first things to kick from the phone. Do you also have NFC on? Widgets on your screen?
Actually it sounds as if you did already a lot. I am not sure if I would further bother with this ROM,whatever it is.

Some disabled apps still "work" in the background. NFC for example. Or GTalk.
Investigation of these sort of wake-locks can be tedious. Unless you see it as an interesting task Did you consider simply re flashing it?
