Is this battery drainage healthy?

At that pace you look like you will get 20+ hours of moderate usage. I'd say that's pretty darn good, wouldn't you?

I suppose so. Usage was pretty light - it was just in my pocket most of the day. But, if that would last the day for me, then all is well.

are you on GB or ICS?
If you're on ICS, is it stock or custom ROMS? Could you tell me which one is it? And did you delete all the bloatware using Titanium Backup?
Thanks

I'm running a non-rooted version of the stock ICS ROM for the UK. I haven't used Titanium Backup to delete bloatware, but rather just disabled apps such as the Social Hub, built in file manager (I use Astro), calculator and weather widgets. There's a list of save to disable apps on here somwhere. By disabling them, they're removed from your app menu and never run in the background again. I've also got power saving mode on.

ICS?? amazing.. i need to flash stock ICS soon then. Because whichever ICS roms/stock ones i used, they gave me half the battery life than what I used to obtain using gingerbread.
Thanks for your reply bud

You're welcome. That battery life isn't the best either, as according to CPU spy my phone doesn't even deep sleep.

some questions

im using aokp build 40 and i have some question looking for an answer ... and beleive me i searched everywhere and didnt find an answer
1- how to use betterbatterystats ? cause i downloaded it from here xda version and open it and it give me this when i choose any option
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B4lItoDxQiKdWmRsZmh6aEVNeEE/edit
no refernance set yet !!!
2- i want any one to try downloading these app " bey2ollak " cause it didnt work for me .. it opens the start screen and suddenly off to app drawer !! so i want to know what is the problem
3- in data usage there is an option for restrict background data for any app when using mobile data ... does it really work ? cause i restrict alot of apps and when i open it using mobile data it works and not restricted at all !! is there any app that make what i meant ? actually i want an app that block all app to reach to mobile data and select which app i want to reach to it
4- in navigation bar section in rom control there are two options " width and height " didnt work for me
5- recently i figured out alot of options that i didnt know it be4 .. but there are some options still i didnt know " wifi sleep power mode - voltage control - fast charge ( does it really works ?) - zipalign apks - read ahead value - fix permissions - enable sysctl - force gpu rendering -
6 - recently these error message appears alot " system process not responding kill the process ;ok - wait "
7- how to replace any system app with one i downloaded ? ex: if i want to delete the stock camera and replace it with camera fx to be the default camera app and poweramp to be the default system music app
8- is there any risk if if i played with max cpu speed and gpu clock speed and touchscreen clock speed ? if not so by ur experience what is the ideal values to set ?
and thanks in advance

Maybe nobody know the answer.
And by the way, your google docs doesn't allow access.
Anyway, BetterBatteryStats, just run it, charge your tab to full, and let BBS run for say 1hr
then open it and look at the kernel wakelocks "since unplugged" and also partial wakelocks.
You can paste the picture here and I can try with my limited knowledge to help.
BTW, why do you want to run BBS? you have battery consumption issue?
And for your other questions, I don't know the answers.

Answers, I think I know'em
You can force GPU rendering for playing games smoothly......!!!!
For improving games performance.....
Max CPU: 1200Mhz
Min CPU: 100Mhz
Set Governor to Lagfree.....
and see that games performance changes......
Also for the apps(Why do you want them to be default?????) Everytime you get an option to choose something:
For example: If u have have multiple launchers.......When you press the home button, a dialog box appears which wants You to choose one from them.....There you can set that launcher to default.....Hence everytime you press home button you will get the selected launcher without any dialog box popping up
You can do that for music players and other stuff where you have multiple apps to do the same thing....

Try under locking your device to reduce battery usage. To play HD games, use chain fire 3d to change pixel shaders.

[Q] Samsung Galaxy Ace remove lag

Hello!
My Ace has a problem. Maybe is not only may Ace, but the thing is, sometimes it turns to be verry slow...I mean, realy slow. This, most of the times, happens after he is in standby mode for a long time.
So, my question is: What is the best rom for resolving this problem, keapping everything working properly?
Thanks

I had a custom lockscreen that was very slow. If its when you unlock/bring out of standby then it might be the same thing. Use a small (filesize small) lockscreen and see if that helps. If its large and uses 3d etc then yes, it is slow.

another possible explanation is that some people install battery management profiles eg: cpu tuner.
in this case people somtimes apply an overly restrictive cpu profile on the "screen off" profile so it uses only a small amount of battery. While this does indeed save battery, it also causes there to be a larger delay than normal when unlocking the device from deep sleep.
Pete

Try increasing CPU mhz.You can also try tweaking minfree values. one easy way to that is to use ROM toolbox pro Or use RAM manager from the market to give your ace more RAM

[Q] [AOKP 4.1] Experiencing very bad battery life

After a full charge, without even touching it, it drains the battery quite fast! Also I've been on a full Charge and not even an hour of screen time and already 65%. And I've only been using Talk and the xda premium app.
My current rom is aokp_galaxysmtd_jb_build-4
I would most appreciate it if any of you would suggest different kernels or roms or something that could help me with this situation.

Get the BetterBattery Stats app from the market. It gives a much more detailed view on what is eating your battery. I had a similar problem and helped me out with finding a bad app running in the background.

Thank you very much, I'm going to try it and let you know.
EDIT: I used the app, and it doesn't seem like any apps are running in the background other then the default apps such as calander, google search,clock, etc...
Likely it's just my faulty rom (AOKP). I will consider changing it. Thanks for the help btw!

I am running DarkyROM with a semaphore kernel. Really fast and great battery life.

Make sure to also check CPU states in the BetterBatteryStats app. When not doing anything your phone should go into deep sleep. If it doesnt, you can check the Kernel Wakelock en Partial Wakelocks in that app to see what is keeping your phone awake.
PS: I'm using X-Bean 3.0 rom with Semaphore kernel 2.6.1 and very happy with it.

-Help- Lag After Jelly Bean Update.

Hi Everyone,I am new to the forum(But following it from many days)
As the title suggests, after I updated the firmware through Official LG PC Suite, i am experiencing massive lags.
Used RAM is always at approx 700 Mb. Opening more than 1 tab in Chrome phone lag badly. There are launcher redraws and much more.
Tried a factory reset but it made no difference.

Usually wiping cache, valpik and resetting to factory settings before flashing solves the problem, and most of the time its an app, usually a battery saver app with permissions to modify CPU speeds that causes this.
Also please stop capitalizing each and every word in you sentence. It's not a title!

Thanks for your quick reply. I do not have any battery saver app. I did not factory reset the device before updating.

You should carry out a factory reset AFTER the upgrade. Wiping cache and dalvik (not valpik) cache is done from a custom recovery, which I preusme you have not installed on your phone?

Also users who are not experiencing any lag,do tell how much RAM Is in used and free.

No....still lags

Yes, I was using the UK version and didn't see any problems, but didn't try to change the CPU speeds.
Now running CM, so can't confirm for you.

Used RAM Is Always at approx 700 Mb.Opening More Than 1 tab in Chrome Lags the Whole Phone.If I Press The Home Button,Then All icons And Widgets Disappear And Slowly Build Up Again.Tap On Apps Button And It Takes 3 Second To Open The List.Phone Lags In Almost All Areas.
As Suggested By Some Other Members,I Tried To Factory Reset Phone But It Did Not Help.Someone Please Give A Solution,
Btw,Before Updating To Jelly Bean,I Was Not Rooted.Nor I am Now Rooted.Please Give A Easy Solution As I Don't Know Much About Flashing,etc.

I suggest you go back to ics like i did. jellybean is full of crap and ram usage is always high for no reason.
If not. then root the phone and freeze some apps, disable others and uninstall the ones you don't use. to keep your launcher from redrawing then force it into memory with ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1 paste this at the end of your build.prop in system folder.

So,this is the only way to get rid of lag? Would V20b solve it? I do not want to rollback to ics because i am new to these things and do not know how to do it perfectly.

the only way you can follow instructions incorrectly is if you brick the phone... and i found a lot of issues with jb mainly performance.

Lagg is resolved with a factory reset. Dont restore your files and apps just install them again after factory reset! Not all files and apss from ICS have same settings and functionality on JB so that can lead to lagg..
RAM is here to be used,if RAM isnt used then your phone isnt performing his full potential! If RAM isnt used that means that apps in the phone are not working,so when you open them you will get lagg because they have to start up every time..Some apps drain battery so you can grenify them but apps have to run for your phone to be fully exploited!

You should install through LGFlash Tool for the cleanest install, after that root and install your apps again. It's a pain in the ass but, the best way... About ram, if it's being used, the phone performance is better but that might reflects in the battery life. I use to close all processes after use the phone and my battery life is very good, the delay to access the apps 1st time after being stopped is about half of a second, soo... I can live with that.

Seems to me that as long as you have all the default services running, you hit less than some limit of ram, or a period of inactivity, and the OS preemtively starts garbage-collecting programs in mem - among others, the launcher/homescreen app. Makes sense, more or less, to do that. Because it'll free up priority for apps that don't actually receive input (such as the launcher screen).
But on the other hand, homescreens can contain lots of apps, and could take more than 5 seconds to load, so not such a brilliant idea to destroy the cache. Meanwhile, services you never use tend to poll the system on their own, and suddenly they're treated with more attention than the programs you're actually using..
Seems the running programs being replaced by fifty useless services is less of a problem the more free ram you have, though.

And that's why a lot of "garbage" was un-installed on my device (other users made the same).
