[Q] Questions about ICS (B4 at now)

General questions about ICS working on our Streaks.
My first: i cant go to the fly mode whithout a crash rebooting. How we can solve it?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Quick review:
1. Fly mode brings into crash -> Dont worry! Simply restart and dont power off this mode, it saves your battery a little
2. No 2g/3g radios -> We are sorry
3. I dont need useless SMS/MMS stuff -> You can uninstall it, but dont uninstall the phone.apk and telephony.apk
4. I have flickering screen at low brightness value -> [Only one way is to change it to a different level] UPDATE: use ScreenDim
5. Floating charge of battery -> ?
6. Games dont work! -> tegra2 drivers not exists

Don't do it.

Yeah, all works fine! , better than HC ... more battery life 300%, free ram, CM9 !! ... iu can install DSP manager ...
Dont work:
... only cam, video cam, phone app, 3g and 4g,no sim detect,fly mode crash, dock station ramdoly crash.

No radios besides wifi/bluetooth work.
And voice calls are still in deep discussion if its possible.

If you restart after (crashed) turning on fly mode, you should stay in it. And you can save some battery power (~7 - 10%, GO power master said, because some telephone modules and mobile internet works in background, inspite of the fact that you dont have sim card). So you can use wifi and bluetooth too (in fly mode).
Also, my Streak charged in one hour and 30 minutes from absolute zero to 100%. Is it normal? Why it is so fast?
Discharging is rather long - about 32.5 hours!
One more question: can i uninstall some system apps such as sms/mms, calls and other useless?

Go ahead and uninstall the SMS/MMS stuff, but for now don't uninstall the phone.apk and telephony.apk, I've actually had worse device performance and more crashes because of it.

New question! How can i get rid from flickering screen at 20-40 brightness value? AnTuTu CPU Master cant use GPU control because it doesnt supported for our device at now. Can we change a kernel to more tweakable maybe?

Because we do not have a 2.6.39 kernel nor a 3.0.x kernel from Dell, we have done the best we can in tweaking the 2.6.36 kernel to work with ICS.
How about not having it at the brightness level? Change it to a different level.

Not long ago i installed BatteryMix program and discover, that my battery have floating charge - sometimes when i power off the screen (cpu frequency and battery temperature is falling), the charge is raising for 2 - 3%! Is it safe?

Guys, i cant play games on B4 at all! I installed many popular games, but they dont run. Even TrialX2, that i played on stock and HS 3.2, doesnt work! I tried Chainfire, but it doesnt help. What is the reason?

Games dont work because of tegra2 drivers, that this rom doesnt have. I returned to HC for this time

I am pretty sure that posting questions that had already been asked fell under this... but then again n00bs never use the search bar

Nocturnal_50, this thread is a public talk with Giveen for me, mostly. I think its a good way to posting my questions in one thread. So, give me the links or describe the answer, if you can. Nobody needs your useless comments about nothing

Look over this, people continually ask about it, giveen has told me he will no longer be creating ROMs for the Streak 7 and that DJ_steve is the only hope for ICS_b5 unless someone new steps into the game.

Ok, maybe. So where is some faq about it? We always should read 32 pages of text?

if you are taking the TLDR approach then try from about page 26 onward

There is one thread for all versions, not only for b4, maybe - i dont know, which problem exactly described for b4 (maybe for b2 or b1 or b0.0001). Second reason - this thread is very dirty (its my opinion). Helps him dell or not, have they problems in code or not have, do they need money or bear - i dont care (as usual user). I dont want to read all of this! We need different threads for dev and for users with their questions and faq - it is normal practice for many device branches on xda. But we havent normal thread for rom, normal faq, normal question thread - and you say that i should read all garbaged (for me in this situation) text.

Rooted Xperia SP 12.1.A.1.205. What next?

Hi,
Let me apologise first for posting this message but I really need help from this forum. I rooted my Xperia SP 12.1.A.1.205 using Towelroot & then installed SuperSU & gained complete root access.
I'm completely clueless regarding all this. I want to know what should I do next? I want to improve my phone's battery life and work on other features. How do I do it? This is the first time I rooted my phone. I have zero knowledge regarding this.
Please help me in improving my battery's life and let me know what should be my next step. Would be highly grateful if someone guides me.
Thanks!

You will have a glorious day experiencing new stuff if you search through Google. But no worries I will give you some head start suggestions.
I recommend Xposed Framework to be installed on your phone. Learn about it here. With it you can now modify your ROM to be as best as possible as per to your need. Some module recommendations, you can use GravityBox to modify some nice visual appearances on your ROM. You might also use GEM Xperia Xposed to advancedly modify your Xperia home screen. You will also find YourTube interesting as it allows you to change how the YouTube app behaves.
Battery saving is a lot better with Xposed installed. By using Greenify you can hibernate RAM hogging plus battery killing app. Also with Amplify you can drastically reduce battery draining caused by Google services.
Last but not least, you may also experience the bigger picture, by installing recovery and flash a new ROM on your phone (but this is a practise that requires accuracy when doing it). Think about KitKat, you can have it on your phone by selecting one of many wonderful ROMs built by wonderful Xperia SP developers.
I hope you can get some pictures with this post.
ROM = Firmware = Operating System
Flash = Push files into the higher level file system

Hi!
Thanks a lot for taking out time and replying to my query. So you're saying that I should first install Xposed Framework? I don't want any fancy looking theme or design for my SP. I just want a simple layout. My only concern is to improve my battery's life. Nothing else
So should I only install Xposed Framework and then install Amplify? Will this much do?
Thanks a lot once again!

Hi again,
I installed Xpose Framework successfully and Amplify. I even bought Amplify pro version. I don't think my battery life has improved. I guess the battery is discharging faster than it used to. Can you please guide me in helping this problem? Without WiFi, I love 1% charge in 5 minutes that too in flight mode. If I go through the menu for some time, I lose battery.
I successfully rooted, installed Xpose and Amplify. Please help me!
Thanks!

Installing it only without customising won't help! Take your time to learn the app. Additionally, Amplify doesnt drain more battery on my device. Perhaps something else is? Amplify does not do anything if you haven't modify anything, plus, even if it runs, it uses the system process, which extremely cut-down battery sucking that normally happen with solo processes.

Hey,
Thanks a lot for replying! How do I know which services/alarm to stop in Amplify?

I read few queries in some forums regarding the battery problem and most of the people suggested to upgrade the kernel or something of that sort. Can you please let me know if I should tune my kernel to improve my battery's life and if yes, how should I go about it?
Thanks!

You don't "stop" them but you "limit" them. The two terms are very different. I am using a different ROM so I cannot suggest a common things for my ROM, but these are standard among devices as they are included with play services:
Wakelocks
NlpWakeLock
SyncLoopWakeLock
NlpCollectorWakeLock
Alarms
com.google.android.gms.nlp.ALARM_WAKEUP_LOCATOR
com.google.android.gms.nlp.ALARM_WAKEUP_ACTIVITY_DETECTION
Services
This feature is new, and there's currently no known safe services to be limited with Amplify

Sorry since you're using stock ROM, kernel modifications are way too limited.

Hello again,
Thank you so much once again for replying. Ok, I get it.
So if I change my stock ROM to some other ROM, will I be able to modify the kernel then? Can you tell me if I should change my ROM..if yes, then can you suggest me how I do it?
You're awesome! God bless you

Ok, this is really annoying. My battery is creating problem for me. I fully charged my phone, and it's been almost 5 hours and I have lost 5% charge that too in flight mode with almost all the services turned off. The display was turned on for 10 minutes only. That's it. Can you please help me in solving this problem?
I have read almost everywhere where people keep their phones in flight mode and they don't even lose 1% after 8-10 hours.
What should I do?
Thanks a lot!

Thanks However, this is not an easy process. You should know too that risk of your phone being damaged is quite moderate when performing these tasks. I can't tell you if you should, as it should be completely based on your requirements only. Decide for yourself and try the ROMs for yourself. I may guide you, but this will give you plenty of new questions. And since you are new to android, there are many things that are unknown to you. But these things are well documented / answered if you use the search feature of the forum and Google. Only ask for something that is unique enough.

Sorry, I can't help about this bug in stock ROM. Another person faces this problem as well but unfortunately there are no fix. Alternatively, you can save your battery by changing network mode to GSM only.

Hi,
Thank you so much for replying. I am willing to take the risk. Can you tell me how I should begin upgrading my ROM? I will use the forum in case I face any problem. I just need some one to guide me.
My cell stays in flight mode and I don't even use it. I lose 1% every hour even if my phone enters into deep sleep with only 1% awake time. What is wrong?

I might take my phone to the Sony service centre for a check up. Can you please tell me how do I unroot my phone? I used Towelroot to root my phone and then installed Xposed Framework. How do I make it go back to the original state?
Thanks!

To uninstall Xposed, open the Xposed Installer, select "Framework" and then hit the "Uninstall" button. What root application did you installed? Is it SuperSU? If so, you can easily unroot it by searching through its settings.. I am sorry I can't pinpoint to the exact location.

Battery Drain...
The battery drain your getting is probably due to alarm service/google play services/android os. I have the same issue, stock .205 clean and rooted, whenever the alarm is on I get horrible battery drain what makes it worse is that the android os uses excess mobile data which causes the battery drain. I think the alarm has something to do with google play services. There is no problem when the alarm is off, but I need it so cannot turn it off.
It is a very annoying issue that I haven't been able to fix, these running services prevent the device from going into deep sleep hence the battery drain, I typically lose between 23%-30% over night at a rate of ~3% per hour. :crying:
This probably doesn't help your situation but at least your not the only one.

Thanks a lot for replying. Thank you Shin; but my Xperia SP enters into deep sleep mode 99%.

I'm extremely irritated now! I changed my phone and got a new one but still there is battery drain. I rooted it, installed Xposed Framework, installed Greenify (Donation), disabled almost all the useless services yet I lose almost 2% charge every hour that too in flight mode without even touching my phone!
What is wrong with Xperia SP? Can anyone please help me in solving this problem? Please?

Bro, there is nothing wrong with the phone, as I said above it is to do with the software, from my experience the stock based eXistenZ ROM does not have battery drain but still has **** RAM, you might want to give it a try.

Hi,
Thanks for replying! Can you please tell me how do I install it? I have no idea how to do it. What about the RAM problem? Will it slow down my phone?
Thanks!

Here is the thread. Installing is easy, use the locked bootloader version, instructions are provided. In the instructions it says you should be on the 4.1.2 firmware but being on the latest 4.3 firmware is ok. To put it simply all you need to do is download the ROM, root your device (towel root), install superuser (apk), install cwm recovery via windows, flash ROM. If you need more help get back to me.
As for the RAM, it is still a problem even on eXistenZ, I believe it affects all stock ROM/kernel variants. From my experience the device still runs smoothly it is just that there is less free RAM available so the home launcher commonly closes when heavy apps/several apps are opened but it then reopens when returned to.
Here are some links...

[Q] Horror: Battery Drain on EXYNOS N9 - any insights?

Hi there!
I know that this is not the first thread regarding the EXYNOS battery drain issue, but as a matter of fact, I didn´t find any hints on how to tackle it on all the forums out there. I constantly get something between 2 to 4 hours of SOT with my Note 9 and I guess I am right to say that this is far beyond strange. My 3 years old Oneplus 3T still achieves something around 6 hours - with the very same bevavior and a way smaller battery.
I´m a standard user without any special usage behavior - mainly messaging, mail checks, some notes here and there and some spotify. Dual Sim active, WiFi active, AOS active, good wifi & data connection.
Here are some repeated measurements (samsung, gsam):
EDIT: Exchanged Screenshots, see below
This cannot be normal - and as I´m obviously not alone with this issue, I´m super grateful for every meaningful discussion on the why and how to tackle. I don´t think that any behavior recommendations would be helpful here ("disable wifi if not needed", "reduce screen brightness to a minimum" etc). I don´t want to mess around with greenify via root or xposed module etc either. This is a 1000€ device and it performs much worse than my old OnePlus.
What do you guys think? is there anything i´ve missed? Are there any hints on how to hunt down some main suckers? Did anyone with an exynos device and the same issue get out of this mess?

How old is your Note 9 ? Have you updated to ONE UI recently ? And none of your links work! i tried a few. They go to some upload page! No images are being displayed, and i cant work out what to click as it's in some foreign language!!

His links in a post within the real life review forums works.
If I was OP, I'd start from scratch. I'd also be checking standby drain V SOT. Put device in airplane mode and check overnight how much battery consumption has occured. Then same with airplane mode off. Within gsam app, also check what apps are using what the most via the pull down menu, pic attached.
Also try putting to sleep all apps that dont require your notifications all the time.

Strange with your SoT.. I tried a few things that helped me really. Just look into your Devoptions and navigate to ''Backgroundprocesses'' & ''Backgroundchecking for Apps'' Read this in antoher Thread here..so if you deactivate things like Bixby or similar..my SoT push up to nearly 7 Hrs and my overall runtime of the device is between 2 or 3 Days, depend on Usage. Bevore i get only 2-3 Hrs SoT and overall runtime about 1.5 Days. So maybve it will help you with this 2 settings in Devoptions.
If you cant find it, i can attach Screenshots, wich 2 Options i mean. But my Systemlanguage is German, just saying. But if you want, i upload a Screenshot. Want to say that the impact for Sot and overall runtime was amazing. You can feel it just after deacitivating a few things, if you look on your Batterybar. Other Option is to clear Cache via Recovery. But this helps not everytime and if you done a factoryreset so far, i dont think this will help.
*Edit* Oh forget to say, you can also put your Always On on activate by taping on screen. So this save me a few % Battery aswell !
Hope this will help you :good:

Heyhey Treasarion! Thx for your reply, very much appreciated! Hey, feel free to add your Screenshots, because - as a matter of fact - my Screenshots are in German as well .
I know about the impact of the AOD (but anyway, thx for the hint!), but based on my experience, that's just approx 1 % per hour (at max!), so this "macht die Suppe nicht fett". There must be another issue....
Hey would be cool to see your recommendations!

Okay i give you a Screenshot wich 2 Options i mean, and 2 Screenshots wich things i personaly deactivated and are safe to deactivate. So you dont must research by yourself :highfive:
'Edit' Oh hope you can see something on my last 2 Screens..maybe they are too large ?! And for your usage case i recommend you to look exactly what you need and what not. Want to say maybe you can deactivate more then in my personal setup or less, depend on your usagecase. But i can say, that everything work perfect for me with this list of apps i deactivated for backgroundcheck or put in standbymode.

Hey! Thx for providing me with your suggestions - just updated my setup accordingly - will keep you posted!

Hi OP.
Any update on the battery performance?

Hey there,
sadly not - honestly, I'm a bit frustrated at the moment and i dont really know what to do.
What you can see in the screenshot is my exceptional use of Whatsapp yesterday evening, but still: no matter what I do, I can literally watch the battery go down.
Screenie:

Btw: here's one of a lot of issue reportings within the samsung members space. You can read yourself through those 10 pages, all of them are reporting the same issues.

What u didnt answered :
Do you use Android 9 Pie ? Or Oreo ?
Did it came with Pie ? Or did it came with Oreo and Updated later per OTA to Pie ?
Liebe Grüße

Hey @amorosa,
It came with Oreo and was updated to PIE as soon as the update came in. Running in PIE now!

So you had the Problems with Oreo too ?

Actually - i dont know bought the Note 9 used, as always and it already came with pie (to me!). I bought it in January, the original receipt is dated on September 18.

Maybe a downgrade to oreo via Odin is recommended to see if that helps
I mean : You tryed anything else i think

Uuhh what the...did you know that spotifiy is using the accelerator like - all the time? Just stumbled upon this in BBS and a minute of research has shown that this is a know issue since years.
Will deinstall Spotify just for a day and see if it helps. Is just had a day with Bluetooth of - no effect.
EDIT: added 2 more Screenshots. One shows a service calles com.google. android.gms, which I guess is related to play Services. Numbers of alarms and corresponding wakeups are quite high as well...

Apps killing overnight

Hello, does anyone of you guys have an issue with apps killing overnight?
Now I have zenfone 6 and they told me on their forum that this jus just android 10 thing and it is normal that my phone kills my apps night by night leaving me with 3 app alive usually no matter what I turn on and off in battery saving and ram options oO.
So I figure out that pixel subforum will be the best place to ask about it. Thank you for any response .

Those Chinese phones with those Chinese ROMs have aggressive app management. Even turning off battery optimization and things like that don't seem to really help. I've had my share of Chinese phones and this was beyond frustrating.

And now do you have pixel or some other phone on android 10 and can you confirm that your apps stay alive after a night?

I have a P4 and have no problems with such behavior. Perhaps this zenfone comes with an agressive Kernel, or you can check in Developer Options to ensure Background Process Limit is set to Standard Limit and not specified to something like at most 3 processes.

Have the Pixel 4 XL. Everything seems fine. Apps stay in the background. Haven't really tested if apps stay open over night. My issue was apps getting closed off within minutes of the phone going to sleep. Some apps even required to re login.
Hope I'm answering w what you are asking?

I have a P4 and have no problems with such behavior. Perhaps this zenfone comes with an agressive Kernel, or you can check in Developer Options to ensure Background Process Limit is set to Standard Limit and not specified to something like at most 3 processes.

Woke up...phone is dead

Guys,
I have Tencent version with WW fingerprint. Had it since end of September. It will not charge (no lights) and not turn on with any combination of power and volume etc. I have tried both ports in a PC and nothing.
If anyone can help, great, but I'm not optimistic. Anyone know if there was an update last night. I did have Asus Launcher 1.04 by HomerSP installed (https://forum.xda-developers.com/rog-phone-2/themes/app-asusupdater-ww-updates-tencent-t4022547) and was just wondering if somehow it did update but I suspect something went pop in the night. It was charging at the time.
I'm in the UK so I doubt Asus will honour a warranty.
Thanks guys for taking the time to read.
EDIT: Guys Phone just came on. Held down power and plugged it in to my PC. Sorry for the time you wasted reading this....

Glad u fix it, i think it's software issue, before i had a few bugs like fps drops in games, screenrotation after unlocking screen etc... For me that default rom is really crap, so looking forwrd for Android10 and custom roms. Btw i can recommend to flash kernel from here https://forum.xda-developers.com/ro...rnel-kirisakura-1-0-0-asus-rog-phone-t4028237 - since then i didn't have serious issue

Thanks for the suggestion. I do like custom ROMs but I need to retain my banking apps. Using magisk modules didn't help with my old doggee S60 phone... They still spotted the root.
If anyone can confirm it works with starling, vanquis and EE I'd give it a go

Did You change magisk manager's app name? Did the trick for me (hide etc ofc enabled)

Yes, I tried that on S60 made no difference. It's coming to the point where I may risk it. I miss twrp and I want to have LTE and WiFi calling. I'm sick of waiting for Asus to official activate them. I'm really happy with the phone overall.
