I'm going to go back to .5 and try to find the camera and put it back in. I'm getting horrible battery and FC on the social network thing

I could watch my battery drain on .6 and everything FC'ed. Think I am sticking with Atrix as that has performed much better.

i just installed navs final version of the scripts to .5 and removed some things and added .6's camera and ran quadrant and got 2200 which is better than normal and 3600 on smart bench. also im not draining 13% battery per hour like .6 was
Edits need to be made with scripts. Flash navens fix on eclipse 6.
There is a fix for accounts problems(should fix social widget) ....very soon

oh well i just spent the last 15 or so minutes merging navens and road runner scripts into one and fixing the cpu freqs and making it so that what ever you pick in v6 sticks

its not that its that all 3 of those scripts do alot of the same thing. i gave priority to supercharger since it lets you edit the stuff then merged the rest. i fixed the min cpu freq and a few other things and took out the reniceing script since i dont think things should be reniced that low. also i dont know about this deepsleep script and battery life. wouldnt this while 1 loop keep it from sleeping? either way when i work it out i can make a zip of them

Ha ha...here I am giving suggestions and u said some things I couldn't understand HA.
I have no clue what renice does...I don't have that script tho...if I had it I would have research it first...I only have navens scripts...and I know how to edit them ...and also remove if I ever run v6 again(which I will)
Wish I had an explanation on remixes....renices
reniceing is when you take the current nice value and change it. pretty much the lower the nice value the higher priority it is for time slicing. -20 is the "highest" and i think its way too high. i havent fooled around with phones but if you did something like that on a computer, all hell would mostlikely break loose. also ive notices the deep sleep throttles the 2nd core pretty hard.
All I can say about battery is I got best after I stopped gmail from.sync unless I made it sync. Also only sync priority inbox.
And changed those values in cpufreq....I got 11hrs of heavy usage...not serious heavy usage but heavy...every hour I was on internet at LEAST. Played couple games...checked gmail...(I did kill data and wiring on screen off tho) texts and calls every few hours...on wifi 75% of time.
That was before stopping gmail from constant sync....tomorrow should be better
i just posted in the road runner thread since its where this belongs. check it out if you want my minor updates

Hey I rooted my TBolt and I wanted to keep my batt life boosted as much as possible.
Currently I have setcpu ondemand and a profile to get the cpu at 256mhz when the screen is off.
What else can I do.
Thanks
As far as I know SetCPU isn't going to do anything for you.

yeah It works just fine for that profile.
Download and buy Titanium Backup Pro and use the app to freeze all the bloatware you don't want running. Stuff like Peep, Blockbuster, Bitbop, CityID, etc. I haven't rooted this one yet, but my old Dinc and DPro showed significant battery life gains when I froze these bloat apps that just seem to always be running. Backup Assistant is another culprit if you aren't using it.
I actually renamed the files using Root Explorer and moved to SD and backed up on my pc, so Titanium wasn't having to intervene all the time to keep them frozen.
I would suggest running Das BAMF Rom v 1.1. Since installing it I've noticed a nice increase in battery performance as well as a snappier phone.

Install a ROM that doesn't have all that bloat on it.
I renamed all of the bloatware apps to .bak and rebooted.
i'VE BEEN RUNNING CM7 for a month (about)
I update to the latest version and right now im on the KANGED version thats not OFFICIAL release but it is made by the dev.
Anyways...
Every day i wake up in the morning, from 100% my battery goes to about 90- 85% from using it then i go to school, phone in my pocket for about 7-8 hours.
It usually goes to 70% or 75% when i check soon as school is over.... but today.. it was at 32%!!?
My battery has been draining FAST this past week. IDK what's causing it, but i think its a app, but watchdog lite doesn't show anything at all.
Any tips at all guys?
- PLEASE DO NOT REPLY TELLING ME TO PUT IT ON AIRPLANE MODE WHILE IN MY POCKET- I GET TEXTS FROM MY BROTHER/MOM TELLING ME IF I HAVE TO WALK OR IF THEIR GOING TO PICK ME UP AND OTHER IMPORTANT INFO LIKE THAT-
Please help me out here.
I love CM7, and it's NEVER been this bad, but if it is because of CM7 then i have no choice but to go back to 2.2.1
EXTRA INFO:
I don't have a data plan so... my phone can't communicate with other servers and crap.
I keep wifi off, bluetooth off GPS off.
Maybe i'll have auto brightness on but thats it.
Check what profile are you using on setcpu? Also you might wanna check the signal while in you school.

I maybe check the time once in the while, but besides that its always idle.
I just slept for a hour. I lost 10% in that hour. WTF is this lol
try recalibrating the batter by using either root explorer or the terminal to delete /data/system/battstats.bin as sometimes CWM on cm7 for galaxy s doesn't delete it.
i have the same issues and tried everything..i dnt even have data plan to use internet and i keep my 2g on and my battery still drains like pipes in the sewers

try not using the battery claibrator app, and removing it from your phone and manually deleting the batterystats.bin file from /data/system and see if that helps your phone at all.
I also suggest getting CPUSpy from the market, and track what states your phone is in and for how long it is in certain states. if it's not going into the sleep state, then something is keeping the cpu active (possibly a governor setting).

That aint normal my friend, you should jump into another modem, regardless of what you're on. Maybe that helps and by all means, what kernel are you on?
I'm on the stock kernel... Should I visage and can you link me to more cm7 modems or atleast a good one that works good?

The stock one should be battery efficient but I honestly haven't really tried it out. Give r12 or r25 a shot from here. They've been great in every aspect to me. Just make sure you're not on kang 7.1 when flashing, it doesn't support that.
As for modems I'd suggest either KB5 or KB1. If you're on either one switch to the other, may help.
don't run phone on "performance" -- it's silly to run the cpu at top speed when the phone is just sitting doing nothing. Run it at "on demand" or "conservative" especially if it is OCed. Also set screen timeout at a minute or less. If you got the phone used, it's possible the battery is old. If you reboot it a lot and install roms and stuff you'll run the battery down fast.
Well..
Yesterday I did a cleaning of apps i never use and some i installed recently.
I guess that did the trick? I have no more problems came back from school and my battery's at 76%
@Abu, thanks for the tips. i don't want to get a different kernel and modem.. im on kanged 7.1 lol.

Fearing it was that i uninstalled SetCPU.
Should i re-get it and make it OnDemand?

don't use setcpu if you don't have to. the built int scaler for the kernel is actually much better than letting setcpu run in the background polling the cpu and system for changes.
if you're running a custom kernel, get voltage control, and with it you can UV, OC, under clock, and change scheduler.
And in Settings -> CM Settings -> Performance -> CPU Settings, you can control min frequency, max frequency, and governors.

Hey whats up guy?
all this Temp-Root and ADB, and bat.file's, and what not is relatively new to me...seeing that ive never needed to use it previously, im kinda paying the ultimate price for it now LOL...So, yesterday i used "Wisefire's" Temp-Root method and it worked perfectly...but now im looking to use the OC bat.file that was included in the zip.....ive tried other method of Temp-Root and changed my uder variables and what not and my PC became a huge mess.....but with alot of help from the guys in that thread we got things worked out and i was able to run the bat.file just fine....now i seem to be getting the same error in the CMD and im not sure where to go from there to resolve the issue.....i keep getting a "NO SCRIPT OR DIRECTORY" error......ill attach a SS of the CMD and what it keeps giving me....if anyone can help me resolve this or maybe even stir my to a differ method of using SETCPU to OC my device, i'd be grateful for that.....thanks guys......i really appreciate it
I was having that exact same problem..i couldnt fig it out for nothing..i still dont know how i got it to work...i just tried extracting the overclock bat in the unzipped easy frevo file and when it asked to replace i said no and it send me back to the easy frevo file folder and i did process and it work..same thing worked with my wifes..so wierd..i dont know if ur using windows but u could try it..lol
EDIT ....I have heard problems with OC in yesterdays easy frevo..there is and updated one with frevo, OC, and bloat from today that one is one that worked for me

Ok lemmi take a shop at this.
1. Make sure you have the right .KO file! There is one for non-ota and phones that have takes the ota (over the air update)
This is the command I used and got it to work.
adb push 8x60_oc.ko /data/local/tmp/
adb shell insmod /data/local/tmp/8x60_oc.ko scpll_l_val=33 vdd_uv=1375000
Make sure to change the .ko name to the one you have. You can simply edit the .bat and use these lines.
Good luck hope it helps!

It's very device and "needs" specific. Everyone is different. If you're looking for the best battery life go as low as you can tolerate. If you're looking for speed crank it as high as you can without the phone locking up or getting sluggish, and play around with conservative/on demand governors. Avoid performance governor.

Performance governor just clocks your cpu @ the max wether needed or not and yeah the phones are all different. Well made, but still made by people and machines. So there's still some variance. I'm a phone geek by hobby but manufacturing specialist by trade lol. Anyways, glad to help.

No prob man. Glad you got it worked out. Also if you plan on experimenting with the overclock and underclock make a mental note to be by a pc/laptop. I say this because if you go to high your phone could freeze and lock up requiring a battery pull this applys with the underclock as well. If it does freeze up and you have to do a battery pull it will mean reboot and you will loose root and have to do your choice of rerooting and reoverclocking. Also I'd recommend reading the overckock thread to look at some members experience with overckocking and underclocking to get a general idea of were to start. Well hope this helps.

I had an earlier bat file that worked for rooting but the overclock wouldn't.
I took the working bat file and edited it. I then copied the first line (where it had cd) to the other bat file.
Worked great.

Idea for App:
Basically what I am looking for the app to do is incrementally raise the min and max settings for the CPU, change CPU governor to performance, and run stress test for 30 seconds to 1 minute. It would then repeat until all speeds are verified as good or the phone freezes or reboots. If either occurs then the app would tell the user the last speed that was stable. See here for what I posted in the Vipermod thread for more info of what I am talking about.
Is this possible? Has it already been made and I just can't find it?

stop being a cheapo and buy SetCPU... it has all that plus more. >.>
onl difference is you gotta step up... just do a native test per step... just because your phone can hit the frequency and survive doesnt mean that the CPU can have a load off with that step and then poof... . but yea... buy SetCPU, no more thread response.

I was hoping you would at least do what you said and not reply to this thread anymore since you offer nothing. But since you can't I will explain. If you still don't understand then please follow your own advice.
I am requesting an app. Whether I can or cannot do the same thing with SetCPU is irrelevant. Not just me but a bunch of people are using the flashable overclock daemon for whatever the reason may be. I know I can manually change the settings to find out. I do not want to and I expect it is the same for others. Just as I use Battery Calibrator to remove the batterystats.bin file because it is easier to push a button and have it do the work, I want a program that will do what I am asking by just pushing a button rather than having to go through the terminal or install SetCPU.

yea i know what you mean... sorry, i really was being a bit of an ass now that i reread it. what you want is something to go to next step, benchmark, go to next step benchmark, and continue to do so until the phone cant handle it.
the problem is, [now this im not 100% but its an assumption], that the daemon is specifying a max value. So I can come up with two scenarios.
1.Though it isn't INSMOD (like the LoadableKernelModule) , it is defaulted on boot through init.d script. The only way to reload those scripts, would be to reboot. Perhaps a hot boot may work. So you would need the app to rewrite wake_max_freq, then reboot... then somehow test it (just a cpu load test app). the script would then need to change the default value to a higher one from a list [the one it just stepped up to], and then tell it if AndroidBoot=Fail to revert to last step (which it probably wont be able to do since the phone would lock on boot since you can default a frequency that is too high). Seems like alot of time to me...
2.I took too long to type this and forgot #2
i know it will eventually be done through a real OC'ing script ... but seriously... whats so bad about testing your device?i can test every step (starting at 192) in less than two minutes. Idk i may just be being a hardass since I find that a user should always test his labors. a computer can only say or show so much, your eyes and intuition cannot be processed.
Ok. Didn't realize it requires a reboot. From what it looked like to me it just read the 6 text files and ran it in real time. If it does require a reboot then I can see the problem you are talking about with having it boot loop every time it starts up after the bad setting is ran. Going to have to look some more into how the init.d is set up. Looks like I may just need to learn some shell scripting.

im just assuming not 100% so dont get your hopes down
Just flashed my first ROM a few days ago. It was the Eclipse 0.2.2. Things seem to be running well but I was wondering if there are more performance tweeks (intermediate) that I could do. I still seem to get home screen redraws. I see where some people are seeing as much as 200 mb's of free ram after the flash. I run in the 90's most of the time reaching 140 to 160 right after a reboot. To be honest that is pretty close to what I had been running since the Gingerbread update. Anyone have any performance tweeks I can make keeping in mind my relative inexperience?
Great forum and thanks for all the informative tips!!!!
Just to start out, you may want to sbf and wipe all caches and try reinstalling because I think eclipse is fast as hell. If you feel you got a clean install you can go to android dev subforum and read the init.d hack thread. I didn't notice much of a difference but I am in the minority. Most people feel the init.d hack really speeds things up

I still seem to get home screen redraws. I see where some people are seeing as much as 200 mb's of free ram after the flash. I run in the 90's most of the time reaching 140 to 160 right after a reboot. To be honest that is pretty close to what I had been running since the Gingerbread update. Anyone have any performance tweeks I can make keeping in mind my relative inexperience?
Great forum and thanks for all the informative tips!!!!

Bulletproof your launcher - that will help. Are you running any of the social network accounts? Kill 'em if so and check your RAM then. Here is a link for the bulletproof:

I change the "1" to a "0" - 1 is 'Hard to Kill' and 0 is 'Bulletproof'
Running the init.d hack with Auto Killer Memory Optimizer set to extreme had me running around 180mb free at boot and hover around 150mb for the most part. Haven't tested these long enough to see if that 150 drops further. W/out AKMO I would drop as far down as 80mb free.
Thx for that link, Mistawolfe, gonna check out bulletproofin.

I thought the init.d hack was for Froyo only? Maybe I'm looking at the wrong thread.
Look for the post authored by Navenedrob. There is/was another but I think that one is dead. Someone correct me if I'm wrong..
I would link it but I don't believe I can with the non-donated XDA app.

Thanks I will try that tomorrow and post my results!!!
Wow! mistawolf that bulletproof trick really worked!!!!! Thanks for the tip.....not much luck on the free ram....what do you think of running that init.d hack with Auto Killer Memory Optimizer set to extreme as suggested by XOdos?
I removed AKMO this morning after the battery dropped 20% during my morning use: xda checks, fb updates, any email and/or txt received overnight, and market updates. Not the typical battery drop for my extended battery; a very significant drop for that matter.
I wasn't so much suggesting you try that set up as much as I was stating the combo seemed to give me more available RAM. As I've learned, every phone seems to behave differently to various settings, ROMS, kernels and hacks. I try out various combos n go from there.

Check your running services. I bet you have a couple apps just eating stuff up. I have to kill TweetCaster on occasion after viewing or else it will run in the background and gobble up RAM. I don't have any scripts or anything on 2.2 and I go anywhere from 105 to 165 free.
Also, when I used MKMO, I had it set to aggressive, or slightly aggressive, not sure the exact name.

ok I realized last night that even with the Eclipse ROM there was a lot of bloatware that still needed to be frozen. So after reviewing the suggested items throughout this forum I used Bloat Freezer to remove at least a dozen items. After a reboot I went to 187M of free Ram.....yes!!!! Happy to say I woke up with free RAM sitting at 138!!!!! I am loving my Droid X2 and this forum! Special thanks again to mistawolf who suggested bulletproofing the launcher and looking at my social systems. Didn't realize that even though I was not signed into any social accounts they were still running in the background. Now I am mean and clean!!! Thanks all!!
