[Q] best ROM for best Batterylife+ other tips&tricks to do it more battery friendly?
Hi!
I was wondering if someone can recommend the most battery friendly ROM out there for the moment for Xperia S?
I wonder since I have had both GB and ICS from Sony and I don't feel that they are that good as the Xperia Play was or are that smooth as users write that it is, it jsut feels like it's a hype about all that :/
And for the moment I got KA's latest ROM+kernel and it isn't good enough battery wise, and I'm now wondering, if someone can give me tips about the most battery friendly ROM out there for Xperia S or if Custom-ROM users can report their batterylife and with which ROM and Kernel+ if you use some other tweaks.
and more than ROM+kernel, feel free to give me other tips and tricks about saving batterylife.
For the moment I have turned the light down as much as I can, don't have any live wallpaper, turned ouf Data+everything else and it's still eating battery and the device battery life is the worst in my whole phone history, even my Nokia 3310 was doing better than this :/
Thanks in advance for answers.
Best regards RazerBlader and excuse me for my bad Enlgish, I tried my best.
decreasing CPU speed and LCD brightness !!!
hey bro...how are you...first i want to tell you that i had the same problem...upgrading to android 4 was terrible cuz i had just 300 mb ram free...on gingerbread i had 400-500mb free...
2) the performance of gb is much better than ics...so after trying some kernels...different roms...i just hold my way from changing roms e.t.c.
i decided to flash the ( KA10 speed rom+ics kernel) ..first you have to unlock your bootloader and root your device..
here comes the interesting part....download CPU tuner...free of charge!!!!
and set the min. frequence of your cpu to 192MHz and max 1GHz.......1GHz is totally enough...decrease the profiles you youse....like the screen off ...set it to just 192MHz single core!!!!
BTW all settings are with just one core running.
after testing these setting i got this result:
2 days 19 hours 52 min 34 sec with Battery...still 30%::::
Display was 1 hour and 23 min on with a brightness of 25% ...totally enough...at night when chatting on whats app...brightness 0% and everything is clear.
music player 2 hours
calling 37 min.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
so with stock ICS without changing anything..and without a cpu tuner:
13 hours 18 min 3 s with battery
i got
display 25 % just 39 min on
music 20 min
and calling 17 min
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
in few words...if you don't use your phone much ...these setting are very helpful for you....or you can decrease it a bit more...
and if you need speed you can boost it up with a click.
with 192 MHz singlecore...you get perfect sound with music player screen off and its fluent and smooth playing...
IN fact:
less speed---more battery life--not so smooth --but ok
more speed ----less battery life---soo smooth like baby oil..hehe...and Nitro .
_________________________________________________________________________________________
use the speed of xperia s on demand....i mean just when you need it.
i hope i helped you out

Oh, tanks a bunch, it really helped me a lot since I didn't even thought about this, and I will use CPU tuner without eving consider not to and it was the best advice i have eard in a real long time, and i can leave with the none-smoothness and I bet it will perform even better with that app on JB when CM10 is more stable so I definitely gonna go with your advice and thanks once again, I really appreciate it a real lot!
And you really did helped me out since i bet this is all it needs since the hardware is very battery hungry and don't that battery friendly at all as you wrote
Only time I bet that we gonna use it is when we can hook the phone up as a computer with the Linux-project that is going on, other than that, I don't feel that I have the need of this power more than in games when playing, and when it comes to get the better resolution and smoothness through HDMI to the TV, especially with the XBMC-app running
Thanks once again a bunch!
another advice
hey bro again...
sorry for the double post...but i have no permission to change my own post...anyway..
I just wanted to give you another hint for even more battery life..
a few minutes ago...i read the new Speed Kernel v3.1
it has VOLTAGE CONTROL....you can control the voltage "the energy that your battery "eats","uses" control.
doom kernel also has this feature in his own kernel..but believe me you will have just failure and errors with doom lords kernel.
i respect his work..but i just want to help you ..from my own experience.
so speed kernel has a flash able and also a fastboot file...but a advice you to use the flash method.
dont forget.....use it at your own risk.

Thanks once again and thanks for sharing your experience, I guess I will flash it tomorrow since it's one hour past midnight here and I guess that the CPU tuner has voltage control or I will have to search around some for an app that can help me
And I guess that no one is sorry for that double post of yours since it's really helping me out

Try editing build.prop (if you're rooted), there are lots of tweaks that can help you improve your battery life.

Hi I bought a galaxy s2 off eBay which had cyanogen mod on there as it was a gift I flash a stock rom. Just wanted to know if someone before had used set cpu or similar to change cpu speed should the cpu be set to default by flashing stock as her phone gets quite warm and battery is crap. As I owned an s2 they seem worse than usual
Thanks for looking

every single custom rom fan has this prob, i'm having this issue too and what i do is just flash back to stock rom + siyah kernel (kernel changing is up to u), turn off auto sync, uninstall unused app and tried to use battery wisely
I have been holding on and skipping devices that were/are really appealing to me(LG Pro, Oppo, Sony Xperia Z, etc) for the Note 3.
I was going to order the Xperia Z Ultra but thankfully I convinced my self otherwise. I'm not playing many games now days nor using it heavily.
Mostly for above average media consumption, light gaming, browsing.
Also as I said I was waiting for the Note 3 since the day Note 2 was announced I decided to skip a generation.
And thankfully I decided to skip the Note 3 for the Mega. I really wanna go even bigger this time. I don't mind the mid-range performance.
And since my original Note with Asylum 4.3 now feels so incredible(it felt good with custom JB 4.1.2 too), I can only imagine the Mega will blow my mind.
I got the Note 1 at launch and I paid for it quite dearly for it back then.
And today I got my Samsung MEGA(i9200). HOLY MOTHER OF GOD! I'm really in love with this device. The size, the screen, its sound quality are just... amazing!
I can't even remotely begin to explain how I feel about it. This IS really the device that ever wanted. This device in my hand(s) feels like home...
I'm using it for a couple hours now and I can tell you I wouldn't even think about trading it for a Note 3(for free yes as I could sell the Note3 and buy another Mega )
This is really my preferred size of a phone. But I can go down to 6" too if the N4 is released next year and its 5,9-6,0". The best device so far I ever owned.
I also stated that I can go up to 6" when I got my Note in previous post of mine. So I was kinda always wanted a phone this big,
Watched a few trailers, videos clip, youtube videos, listen to many songs. I can say the experience was amazing. I haven't played any games yet tho.
This phone is big. You cannot really how humongous it's unless you light up the screen. The you can understand how huge it is. But it doesn't feel THAT bigger than my Note tbh.
I think that sums things up for me. I haven't felt this excited for a phone since 21 months ago when I got my original Note. Really, really happy owner here.
P.S: I can test/check/confirm anything you guys might want. Like bugs(like dim bug), codes, camera firmware, glitches etc etc. Just let me know. :good:
Edit: I have FM Radio btw and its fully working.
Congrats! Could you run a movie on both Note and Mega and tell us what you think. I am particularly interested in comparing the brightness, and the blacks. And colors. If you could play a high bit rate action movie 720p and compare them smoothness that would be great too. Thanks!

I always compared my previous phones(when its possible to compare them anyway) to my new ones. I always test them with 1080p trailers of excellent quality.
I will do a side by side test with both devices playing various videos(big buck bunny, Sintel, Tekken Blood Vengeance, Hobbit, Avatar, Timescapes etc etc).
But I must be honest, I consider my self a true fan of the AMOLED screens and I love them and I swear by them, so I check the display differences extensively.
I always compare them side by side in:
benchmarks( doing a reboot first and then clearing RAM and closing every possible running up)
screen quality by playing same video with MX at the exact same settings on both devices and also by displaying both the same photo/image.
Camera quality by taking the exact same picture outdoors in qood sunlight conditions and tonight I will test the low light camera quality and view them on my pc.
And obviously the side by side size comparisons. lol.
And maybe a few more...

I know what you mean great for media and web consumption
When you root make sure you flash audio mod to give you more sound headroom. It makes a diff

You will de-virginize(is that even a word) my Mega as you did with my Note...
Update on the battery life:
Its been 7 hours since the first fully charge and 32% remaining. 5 hours screen on time so far with 4h:44m WIFI on time.
Usage was(estimated unless said otherwise):
Around 30-40 Youtube videos(in HD).
Played 10-12 1080p videos I put from the PC for around maybe 20-25 minutes all total time of play time with the MX Player.
Run Antutu 4.0.1(19907) once.
Run 3DMark twice(5474).
Browsed the web with Chrome Beta for around 12 minutes as it say in the stats even tho I feel it was longer than that.
Took around 15 photos some with around 5 being with flash
Also spent a couple of minutes totally just looking at the screen. That thing is huge!

Agreed! Love it!
Update: Rooted today(from here) and updated with XXUAMH1(SILENTLIGHT Rom found here).
This AMH1 release feels and IS faster. I can swear the apps at least feels that open up faster.
In general the phone feels noticeably smoother.
Also my score in 3DMark went from 5147 to 5506. Antutu from 19500 to 20500.
And no, it felt faster all day long. I just run the synthetic test like 15min ago. So I didn't had that in mind to cause a placebo effect or anything.
Congrats koniakki on getting the mega and you are going to enjoy it, i ran Antutu on a stock rom yet, and phone is only rooted at this time and i got a score of 20662..imagine when some custom roms come out for this phone it could have a better score yet..enjoy your new phone.

Thanks for the reply starmaster and welcome to the Mega community too! My best on the Antutu 4.0.1 was around 20500! So well done! :good:
Quadrant was about 7250-7300 my best. Can't remember exactly but was about there. Bring the custom roms/kernels. Our Snappy has a lot of headroom for improvements!
Also starmaster, what I like also is when I compare that score along with the Note 2 or Xperia Z in the Rankings!
Forsure and the scores are very close to those two phones and the mega beats both of those two other phones in the 3D Graphics gaming category i see..now bring on the custom roms. :good:
Edit: I just ran Quadrant on my mega 6.3 and got a score of 8570.

Either your CPU is a racehorse or something is off!! lol!
You got 5000 points more in the CPU score and 2000 points in the I/O score! Did you apply any kind of tweaks? I'm very interested.
No.. i have no tweaks in the phone at all, it is just rooted and that is all, maybe my model i527m is a little different in ways and in the info is says 1.7 GHz cpu and it is a Qualcomm snapdragon and the Adreno 305, maybe i got lucky and got a really good phone..but everything is stock except the rooting part.
Below is a pic of my device info.
And i just re-ran Quadrant again and got even a higher score of 8664..not sure why i am getting these good scores but i like it.

Weird. ...because everything ive been reading about the ATT i527....
There is NO root available yet..
How did you manage to root it???
Can you post a link to the instructions for rooting the i527? ??...

Ahhhhh I see now. ..its the "m" version. ...

No problem on that..and i hope they get a solution for your i527 mega so that you can root it as that is kinda a bummer that they locked the bootloader on that model for the AT&T version..sooner the better. :good:

Hmm. I re-run the benchmark with all the available Governors/Schedulers combination allowed via CPU Master and I cannot pass 7300 points.
Anyone else with a i9200 Mega can run Quadrant please and post their best score please?
If other members with i9200 get the same as me, maybe we can find why starmaster10 scores are so high and find a way to get that performance too! :good:

i am getting about 7200 but i don't know why he getting high score i have searched on wikipedia but i didn't find anything his device use the same cpu and gpu and same speed 1.7 and same ram maybe he can upload screenshot from cpu z app so we know more information about your device
or maybe your kernel has tweaks to boost performence or something like that
Here is a pic of my kernel version and baseband version etc, i will see if i can get more info on my device with that app or some others also. :good:
Here are some pics below from CPU Z of the SOC and System page.

no changes the same processor i think its kernel feature or maybe your rom has better performence
I did another run with Quadrant and my score went up again to 8772...I am kinda puzzled on the scores that I am getting.
Not sure if this will make a difference for you guys/gals, do you have any anti-virus program installed as i have not installed a anti-virus program yet...and i most likely will not as i do not go to any of the dodgy sites.

Don't get us wrong starmaster10, we are really happy for you that you get that performance. I hope that yo can even get 9000! :good:
We are just trying to figure out how to get that too and see if a kernel/rom or simply the I527M version of the Mega is just faster or better optimized!
The differences are in the CPU and I/O which are 5000 and 2000 points faster respectively. I hope someone more knowledgeable can enlighten us, since it will benefit us all to make our devices even faster!
P.S: Starmaster10, if not much trouble, can you please post some scores from the latest Antutu from the Play Store? Thanks!
I am running CM12.1 + M5 Kernel UNDERVOLTED
2.3ghz voltage is 0.900v
I am using EX Kernel manager to show my cpu temp in status bar and I am running StabilityTest v2.7 to stress it .
After 5 minutes of continous stress , the cpu temp is 84 celsius degrees , is this normal ? It's possible to be a sensor reading bug in EX Kernel manager ?
after 15 minutes of stress the temp is 91 ? c'mon is this true ? the phone should be untouchable at that temp but is pretty fine lol . Could be temperature sensor bug ? I hope so
Its weird,i remember my cpu hiting 83-85c and shutting down automatically when i used stability test..but.. i had 4 cores overclocked to 2.7ghz on about 1100v so its a bit of imposibility to have 91c on 900mv.. try kernel adiutor mayby?And Believe me it would be hot as hell as i couldn't handle mine during the tests and cpu was 'only' 85

yes , sound weird , it even goes to 93 degree but still running lol
and yes , the case is not that incredible hot
what rom and kernel you use ? I am using CM12.1 and M5 kernel , maybe that's why sensor reading is bugged , also if I use Cpu Temp app I get 9c lower temps :-/
just asking , how did you kill 2 z2 ?
Currently im on existenz 7.0 + androplus kernel v72,but i was also playing with overclocking etc on cm12.1 and m5 kernel v10.2 some time ago. On both i never got higher than 80-85 degrees without shutdown..And its really hard to get that 80 degree on 2265mhz even after about 10 mins of stability test for me. Only get that high temperatures on voltages above 950-1000mv and long tests.Look at my kernel adiutor settings in attachment. It must be a bug with EX kernel. Probably the cpu temp shows right one.
Ah and i killed 2 because i wanted to switch their motherboards.My carrier permamently locks bl and i wanted an unlockable one.It was a stupid thing to do..but it was a long time ago when i didnt knew many things yet

Oh , good to hear that .
And about your 2 dead z2 , sorry for asking too many questions but I am curious when it comes to this stuff because I also disassembled many phones and my Z2 to do some camera improvement . How exactly you killed the motherboard ? some short circuit or physical damage like scratch or crack ?
When i started the phone after replacing the old board with new unlockable one from the other z2 and doing a fresh ftf install it started to boot..and died..permamently.Pc companion,flashtool,even service didnt revive it (they tried testpoint etc.).I tried to put back my old Locked Mb instead and same thing happened.So i sold my main z2 as a non booting and the second one which already had a cracked digitizer (the one from which i took the unlockable mb from) i sold in parts.Not sure why i was so stubborn but i got third one which i use now and it was unlockable since the beginning..

maybe you screwed up some battery pins on that flex and fried some part , no idea , very weird
anyway , good thing to know , not to mess with removing motherboard ... I love the SoC from my phone because it runs stable 2.3ghz with 900mv and this seems to be very rare .
Thanks for the help and also for telling me the story of your 2 phones
Hi all!
I recently purchased this phone and I'm really disapointed with the performance. Here are the main points:
Antutu scores are like 900k (sometimes less), and I've seen a lot of people scoring over 1kk.
Genshin impact runs REALLY bad, never hitting 60 fps and often going under 30 (before throttling). Results are a lot worse than a snapdragon 870...
The phone overheats randomly
I did a hard reset and installed everything fresh, without copying from other device or anything. Any idea of what can be going on?
Thank you!
Gotten Monday device? 8 gen 1s from Samsung are bad enough for Qualcomm to swap to TSMC now. I would give it back if possible.
Afaik, even after factory resetting your device, if the problem still persists, doesn't that mean there's some problem with the hardware. As the above member said, you should try refunding it.
Same here. 894254 with GT mode ON on global version. Does anyone know what to do to get better results?

What you've done is discover the same issues found by a majority of reviewers which I hope Realme will fix in the software. The phone has a very large passive cooling heatsink, but during long gaming sessions, (or similar) the phone will get a little warm. As far as antutu scores I'm running a benchmark right now. I'll post it as soon as possible.
Here is the screenshot of my device.
I got this phone for $1050 and so far it's great I don't have any issues as you said but there is the heating problem and it'll get resolved in the next update I guess!

Wow that is a lot of cash.
That's definitely overpaid. Got it for 500$.

I got it from the Official site so the price is high!
I ended up returning it and getting and iPhone 13 instead. I loved the phone but can't rely con Realme fixing everything. Thank you all for the replies!

Just so you know Apple devices also have bugs and Apple is slow to fix them unless they involve security issues.

All phones have issues and they'll get resolved in the updates so you don't have to worry. The Oneplus is the only phone which is worse with major problems! Realme is a good phone.
This is my Score, is it bad? My Battery don't last a day. Antutu Score: 924473. Why is it so much worst than your score? :/

In the last update Realme may have lowered performance in order to reduce the heat issue some people are complaining about. That is still a fine score. I will make another antutu benchmark and post it here later.
I ran another antutu benchmark. I made sure all processes on the phone were closed except antutu. The score is over 1 million. Build is RMX3301_11_A.14
According to Antutu my score was the number 1 ranking
Here is another screenshot showing my score ranking in the android app.
Okay I resetet my Smartphone now and got another Rank xD. But I have to say my phone was Cold for the Benchmark!
That is an outstanding benchmark.
