computer usage....

when I go to my taskmanager...(right above in the corner)
My lowest usage is 39 %.
Is this normal? or is this high?
I installed dotfred's taskmanager to see what is running @ the background...
the only thing I see when I go to the tab cpu usage is: idle process 85 %
what is this?
And offcourse my taskmanager 15 % but that's something I do understand..

That figure next to the CPU pic in HTC's Quick Menu is the amount of memory being used. 39% is very good! You still have 61% left to abuse.
Your system is ALWAYS doing something -- even when it's doing NOTHING.
Consider the "NOTHING" process as the "Idle Process".
That "Idle Process" means your system is waiting to be used or to be issued commands. Do something on your unit and the Idle Process will go down and give up cycles to something else that needs it.
In theory, if your Idle Process is 100%, it means that nothing is being done on your PPC and that it's raring to go (a good thing).
If your idle process is low, it means that your PPC is busy handing out CPU cycles to the various applications demanding them (in your case, the task manager itself).
I hope this helps!

ahhhh I get it!
THNX for the very clear explanation!

Yeah, I usually hover around the 40% mark...you're good.

You are very welcome, Pensador.

Me too normally 39 to 41 without any programs running apart from Active Sync

allrighty! thnx guys 4 all your replies!

CPU usage is at 47%

I'm not sure if this is normal, so I thought I would ask some of the pros here at xda. When I soft reset my Fuze it generally starts out at about 37%. active sync kicks on, which by the way I've been trying to find how to keep this from coming on automatically, but no luck. This puts it at about 40%. Once I use something like sky fire, and I'm at 53%. This wouldn't bother me ,but it's at 50% after I've closed the program, and it stays there, draining my battery. is this normal? any suggestions, if it's not?
Oh ya, I forgot to mention.
Running NATF's v2.3 ROM
Stock Radio
don't know if this matter but, Fuzeberry v3.0 w/ L.S. carbon dialer skin, and Icontact contacts.

Yes when I had Touchflo enabled my memory usage was exactly as yours.
You can prevent activesync from opening up at startup by going to Settings>Personal>Phone>Timezone>uncheck Automatic change timezone and clock

nah that fix doesnt work
trust me ive tried about 6 different things nothing stops it

*posted message in the wrong board >.<

I looked right at my fuze when i read your post. I'm at 47% with mail and Windows Live messenger open. I wouldnt be that worried about your memory usage.

Im usually Hovering at 45% to 50% with nothing running and with TouchFlo Enabled... I figure this is normal but i wish i could lower it

cool. I just wasn't sure if that was normal or not. figured I'd get some user's feedback. thanks all. As far as the active sync I guess I'll give that a shot. but i guess it only uses like 1% of the CPU any way so whatever.

I believe you are referring to Memory Usage and not CPU usage. If you CPU is constantly at 47% then you should be concerned. If its just your memory I wouldn't worry too much. When I soft reset Im at 30% usage with TF3D and that creeps up to 40%. I can usually keep it at about 40% using MemMaid and Task Managers.
Keep in mind every menu you open cache's the icons and wastes memory. So if you go into the settings menu and then open you programs folder along with subfolders. Everytime you do this the icons have to load into memory and will stay there. Also some programs don't close completely and stay running as a process. I would recommend getting a task manager that can kill processes. FDCSoft Task Manager is free and works perfect.

yeah after a reset with tf3d im usually at 36 or so
after running stuff then using memaid to clean im back at 40

i have a 32 mb pagepool, and with no tf3d im at 36% 118/184 then with tf3d im at 40-43% depending on apps, and i never go above 48% when im playing a game with tf3d on

So TouchFlo takes up decent space but not crazy space

considering the amount of ram the raphael has the amount of ram TF3D takes up is very insignificant. As for CPU usage.....once its already fully loaded into ram it shouldn't use very much if any cpu at all.

S2U2 for TD2 ?

Anyone has it ?

I installed version 2,04 and works fine

i tried downloading the first one , but is so small and the thing is out of shape ..

D2 is WVGA.... enuff said.

What he said.
S2U2 works fine here and I enjoy this iphone style.

plus it drains your battery in 12 hours... great locking piece of software but clearly not optimized. Running in background all the time, draining the battery like crazy.

I have it cooked into my own ROM (WM6.1, 21051), and over the past 18 hours, power has dropped from full to 75%, with a scattering of use for games and calls.

a hell of a battery drainer....reduced it to 50% in around 10 hrs. with minimum usage..

No way man to drain your battery.
I use it and I have at least 24h stand by 2h of use, 30-45min speak, push mail, also a 1h IMAP account, also weather to 1h update. A lot of alarms, tasks...
And after 24h still have 20%

Your battery drainage, is most likely your 3G or HSDPA connection (that's eating power for sure). S2U2 does not eat that much power.

I have the feeling it uses up lots of power as well. Went from 100 to 0 in a day with minor usage. Will uninstall it and find another one...this sucks

??
Dont work with tom codon WM6.5 rom. It freeze when there's incoming call. Anybody using tom's rom can confirm it?

Misconfiguration drains battery .
Using S2U2 all the time.
My current stats:
- standby time: 39 hours
- talk time: 5 minutes
- device usage: 1 hour 30 minutes
Battery: 71%

ya dude it was my 3G conn. that was the culprit....
installed s2u2 again and using it since 2 days without any major drain of battery.
thnx a lot bro for d information.

earlier was with nokia,SE,sam. etc.

S2U2 weather updates
Hi,
Does anybody know how to configure S2U2 on TD2 with Touch Sense to update the weather status on the lock screen? In settings I used TF3D variant but seems it is not in sync with weather tab.

Here is part of A_C faq conserning power drain :
Q. S2U2 consumes a lot of power?!
A. Make sure there is no music player application running in the background.
A. Use digital clock without showing the second.
A. Don't use GIF wallpapers.
A. Don't use a folder of wallpapers.
A. Turn off "Show Appointment".
A. Turn off "Show Weather".
A. Turn off "Full-screen Battery on top of wallpaper".
A. Turn off "Don't Suspend Power".
A. Turn on "Don't use Keyboard Hook".
A. Turn on "Ignore screen orientation".
A. If any "auto-rotation" application is installed, add "S2U2" to it's exception list.
A. Disconnect the data connection.
A. Update to v2.14 or later.

Great battery life!!!

After doing every possible combinations of ROMs and kernels and everything else under the son I have found the recipe for longer battery life and awesome performance all you need is the Deep Sleep Battery saver Greenify app and Go Power Master Hibernate all your apps then go to Go Power Master and make Greenify and Deep Sleep battery saver whitlisted apps schedule it the way you want Deep sleep battery saver that is as too what apps to sync so often or whatever and example I am used to running my phone dead four or five times a day I charged my phone once in two days when I used this combination so forget all those setting your processor to all these different speeds and profiles just use this and you will see the difference BIG difference unless your over clocked to 1.5 GHz or something even charging the phone and talking on it your battery barely drops this is one hell of a combination took a looooot of time to figure this or but works like a charm

If you have Deep Sleep problems, that Deep Sleep Battery really helps, but just turn it off (or freeze it) after waking your phone, since it still runs on background while you're using your phones, and consume some RAM, which we don't wanna...
Go Power Master, hmm... That "Optimization" thing just means "Clear Memory" (Background Memory). So if you have Task Managers who have that function, you can ditch GPM with your own Task Manager, less Apps installed
Greenify. The best so far. Cancels-out stupid background apps that persists (much better with the new version, GSF bye-bye! ). I only stay at my unstable 4.0 ROM for this baby (and also Xposed). If Greenify can be incorp'ed with GB firmwares, that would br awesome, which is not possible...
Additional tips:
• Lessen RAM usage (meaning close other running apps, foreground or background), to lessen CPU pressure.
• "Top-Off" your charging time. Do an extra 15-20 minute charge after 100% charging. If "fills up" the mV capacity , for the best full-battery experience
• If your phone can, Underclock/volt. Even less than a hundred mHz. It save some 15-30minute more juice on your phone. Just Overclock if needed, same as Setting the CPU clock to default.
• There are Rooted phones specializes on battery saving by:
*On Multi-Cores: Stop a core(s) to run. Really helps keep the CPU pressure off.
*Kernel Governors: Smartassv2, Hotplug, blah blah blah.. Search it...
• Limit / Lessen the usage of phone while charging. I don't know why, but I think its to, uhmm... prevent the battery pressure from charging-discharging, i guess!?
• Others are pretty basic. Backlights, GPS, Data, WiFi, Bluetooth... Yeah, no need to explain..

The CPU Load is always high? anyone can hel me?

Hello , I've received my xz for ten days , but the CPU load is always high even when the phone is idle. Just like the screenshot, there is obviously no app currently running in background , but the CPU load can reach 38% and all 4 cores are on. Back to the days with my z3, the snapdragon 801 often only have 1 or 2 cores working in idle state, so anyone can tell me what causes this problem?
Btw, when I switch on the stamina mode , the phone will become very laggy, I think it's also related to the CPU load problem.
I appreciate your help , thank you.

You need to check the battery and see what apps are displaying there as to taking up your usage..
If you cannot figure it out you may need to perform a factory reset and monitor as you install each of your apps.
the stamina mode will make the phone laggy as it also decreases the performance of the CPU

thank you?i used the top command in terminal , but no app was consuming a lot of CPU , that's strange
