[Q] XXJVK - SGS Gingerbread 2.3.3 - Battery History

Hi for all....
I installed new XXJVK rom for SGS today.
After install Spare Parts to access "Battery History", when set option, application hang and forced to close...
I tried:
- run testing appl, with *#*#4636#*#* and no option;
- Spare Parts dont work
- Settings -> About Phone and search for... and nothing;
Anybody find battery history on Gingerbread? When i run emulated GB from Android SDK (API 10) there is no option to run this feature (a very usefull feature).
If this feature no longer exist, what application show this on previous versions?
I think this is a portable feature... if there is no option to access for this, i will work from these... of corse, if possible.
Any suggestions or ideas?

During this week i work to find "Battery History" on gb source and... SURPRISE!! This feature was removed! No more exists.
Has been replaced with new (and very useless) version.
I working to recreate a userfull version for gb.
I have a functional core, and its working fine. in next week i will work in visual style.
First off all i implement basic funcionalities, and increment over the time.

I dont have it too . But you do know that in
settings >>> about phone >>> battery use is now a little more information with a graph use right? Not sure that was in the previous versions too (if yes I didnt notice it)

You had that in JV1 as well

I meant froyo as I said previous versions....

Yes... i see that graph option (Settings -> About Phone -> Battery Use and press time graph), but show less informations, eg "Partial Wake Up".
The informations showed in this older menu is big usefull...
If google removed these statistics, would be a major setback.

so, how's your batt drain? is it good, bad or same like before?

Apparently the battery is drained more moderately.
With Foyo, in testing only (without heavy use), battery go from 100% to 0% in 6d16h. Obviously, with a lot of improvements...
The problem is without these great feature ("Battery History") i can't apply any improvements, because i don't have any meters for partial usage and others.
Now i working to create a little utility to show this menu in a application. So, i need download gb first, analyse and create...

Galaxy Note 8 pop up ads

Beginning this morning I started receiving full screen pop up ads every 60 seconds. Its been continuous for the last 6 hours. They pop up regardless of any ap I may be using at the time. A few ad examples are attached. My Note 8 is Model SM-950U1, version 4.4.78

Factory reset

I was having similar issue some days back. Please go to settings>Apps and check if there is any application installed at the end of list with no name. Uninstall that one and see if that fixes your problem.

An app u recently installed.. Or visited.. It happened to me.. I l
Cleaned uo history in browser and went through apps

Solved
In my case it was a Call Recorder that I downloaded yesterday. I didn't like it so I uninstalled it about an hour later. However, it seems to have left one program behind, called Phone Services. I uninstalled it today and at the beginning of the uninstall, I got an error message that warned phone services was needed by call recorder. All was well after I uninstalled phone services. Thanks for all the inputs. I appreciate them.

Good you could find the culprit

I have helped people with this before and had a few of these on my note. First, diagnostics.
1. Hold down your power button to bring up your power menu.
2. Hold down on the Power Off icon and it will prompt you to restart your phone in safe mode. Do so and see if the problem goes away.
3-A. If it persists, then you may need to go to your samsung internet browser and clear out all website data.
3-B if the problem stops. Then its a 3rd party app and I would need more information to help you track it down. PM me with your results or questions.

Hello Shadow Assassin, Please see my post #5 describing what I found. I sure do thank you for the steps you outlined above and will file them away. Good stuff.

All cores are at 100% every few minutes

Anyone knows how to see which app is using the most CPU time? I want to throw my new redmi note 9 at the wall already. Hardly any apps installed and every few minutes it freezes and becomes unresponsive.
I got one app and it showed this during freezes

Did you install a new app before that started?

No, Even during initial setup it was like this

Do you have root right now ?
Basically the miui doesn't kill the app when you close/ leave it.Download something like avast cleaner in the Playstore and close/force the apps listed.Hate to say it but don't expect wonderful things from this phone.Mtk cpu and the biggest problem the miui interface atm.

Can I leave it unrooted?
I checked battery stats and it says 75% is taken by screen time. Is there any app that works without rooting and can show the tasks occupying CPU time?

Mmm let me see what ROM are you on global,EU, and what version.
This phone especially some roms are famous for a heavy load off bloatware,ads,tracking, collection off data.mix that with a very in my opinion really bad miui software.
Because you're screen takes the most battery drain most likely we could rule out a third party app.leaves us with system apps.
I had the same as you're phone out off the box freezes.
I debloat my phone installed a alternative launcher with addquard.its not a rocket but it's most off the time ok only use it as back up.
Basically I can't think off a very easy way to get detailed information right now.Even you have root system dump log .even then you have a load off info.system tracing is available but takes time to learn and understand.

I'm on global rom, 12.0.6.
I thought chrome was the problem and disabled it but I still have these 100% cpu spikes every few minutes.

Global ROM is not the cleanest ROM out there.i am not at home right now so I can't check on my other phone if we can get some information out of a non rooted phone.
I would like to point out this page.
Saki EU tool Szaki used it on global 12.03
You don't need root just read the page and run.chrome is no light weight but a mi browser with adds and tracking is no joy either.

Well because I did use this phone only for work.Testing,sharing I only do in emulators.So dropped in the phone with my son to kill it basically what we found out.its not the CPU it is android 10 what request around 2gb of ram ideally.So we got 1gb left normal it should kill processing apps if it runs out of memory.
Now the mi shell miui is holding on 2,2 GB if you play games like asphalt 8,9 zombie hunter,armor god,af arena it is killing itself.
Disable miui or/and give the miui a order to automatically close apps he really don't like that.
So the CPU runs at 100% because off the shortage in memory so in theory we only have 2gb of ram.A android 10 runs idle already around 1,6 gb.So it's no wonder why it lags big
time on a lot.
The fix create a swap file on you're android device.ram expended root ,swapper root,link2sd with gapps root.there is a APK available what create a swap file on you're sd card ,take a good card do.no root.
A video to give you idea how it can run with an without a 3 GB swap file.Even with a 1gb swap file you should walk out the woods

1 to 8 minutes testing 4 games
8 to 11 minutes FPS test .
Last part starting without v memory stuck at boot screen.

Question Has anyone installed BetterBatteryStats? Help please!

Anyone able to please install Better Battery Stats, give it permissions, and let me know if you have 19f00000.decon_0 in your kernel wakelocks? Would be much appreciated before I reset my phone / launch it out of the window
Can't find any info on what 19f00000.decon_0 is
The app is free on XDA but I bought it for £2.99 or something from Play Store, seemed fair and the guy himself said the XDA ones aren't necessarily up to date
Couple of links that were useful to me:

It is frustrating me why mine isn't going into deep sleep and I can't figure out why.
Me, did not use smart switch:
Average screen off drain: 1.9%/hour
Deep sleep: Seems to vary between 50-70% roughly
Friend, did use smart switch:
Average screen off drain: 0.9%/hour
Deep sleep: Seems to be much higher around 90%
I found an app on XDA which is meant to give insight into what is keeping phone awake, Better Battery Stats (need to give some permissions using ADB) - in the "partial wakelocks" section there is nothing high, mainly 0% values, 3% for whatsapp web. In "kernel wakelocks" there are some high values like 60% but they are things like PowerManagerService.Display and PowerManager.SuspendLockout at 60% and 19f00000.decon_0 at 60% also

Don't know the answer but I would suggest looking at battery historian as well - you export a bug report and it breaks everything down for you really well

Try disabling all power management. It's been known to cause conflicts.
Close all app windows before power down.
Goggle Transport and cloud apps are known trouble makers...

Sorry bit of a noob - where would I disable power management?
Google Cloud apps like Google Photos?
What do you mean about closing app windows before powering down?

Well... you need to pay attention to what you toggle on or off. Only fast charging should be enabled and power mode.
Developer options>standby apps, all buckets should show as active otherwise power management is running.
Goggle almost everything... Gmail is all I use and it's set to manual sync. Disable all auto sync and all feedback, Google, Samsung and carrier.
Close all open user apps.

Cheers! I will take a look at those options Thank you!

Any news for 19f00000.decon_0 ?
Nobody talk about this

Question What does the Galaxy App Booster in Good Guardians really do behind the scenes?

Has anyone been able to figure this out?
What does this app do to "boost" performance?

Use a lot of cpu cycles, heat up the phone... that's about it.
Useful for burn in when you first get the phone, you know help get the cpu heatsink properly seated
My stock 10+ OS load is over a year old, still fast and stable without using that app.
SD Maid, using the old Device Care cleaner (firewall blocked) and clearing the system cache occasionally is all I do.

It seems that it may be compiling the app for your target device.

This might shed some light...TL;DR of TL;DR: not much if you're patient, the OS would do the same things in a few days.
“Magic Trick” of Galaxy App Booster
I happened to try an app called Galaxy App Booster that is a part of Galaxy Labs released by Samsung. It claims that it can optimize all apps on device and boost the overall performance by 5% to 15%…

Interesting. Perhaps mine was already optimized although I ran it the first or second day after reloading.
On my 10+/Pie I didn't notice any difference the couple times after I ran it.
It's usefulness seems limited to being a hand warmer in the winter.
I have also noticed that turning on any power management tends to create issues and not help battery life. Problem apps are best addressed directly. About all I do otherwise is close apps when done with them.
In the end Android Pie on this device manages its self very well (after heavy reconfiguration).
My current OS load has seen heavy usage but doesn't show it... I'm impressed to the point where a reload seems like it be a waste of time even after over a year.

Snake oil?

It actually runs the shell command in the picture below to compile the apps in speed-profile mode.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

}
You can also manually compile the apps you need via adb:
adb shell cmd package compile -m <MODE> -f <PACKAGE>
In fact, I think that using the speed mode will have better performance than the speed-profile mode, but it will take up more storage space.
More about the compile mode, see:

I guess it should be similar to the Clear dalvik-cache option in the previous version of recovery, which will "undo" the optimization of all apps so that the apps can be re-optimized after reboot, just like a FOTA did.
