Undervolting Newb - Samsung Infuse 4G

Hey guys I know it's probably been discussed before but I really need to find the correct info. I'm looking to save battery life to the fullest. I even went and bought the 3500mah battery and it seems to improve a lot. Now I just flashed the infusion kernel and want to learn about under clocking. Any help?

Just throwing this out there, but your best bet would be to check in the general section. People are going to end up jumping on you for posting in the wrong section.

Yeah but would this pertain to roms and kernels which is development. Thank you for you concern though. Also I'm noticing that when I lock my phone or while its charging and locked and I touch the backlit buttons on the bottom of the screen they turn on. Um why? Haha

BLN, and honestly the best way to learn about UV'ing is by trail and error. Each phone can handles uv'ing differently. Some can take a lot, while others cant. If you want to learn some more in depth look through the kernels thread and somewhere in there is a guide to everything pertaining to overclocking.

Ah. Ok I gotcha. Is there a way to turn that off Usps when I touch it it doesn't come on. I likethe notification idea though. Also how exactly does unvolting work. I don't mind playing around but how do I use it. Lol

Also, if you are asking a question, even pertaining to roms, it goes in general. He was being nice about it, but this really doesn't belong here.

Ah so only posts no questions? Mods could you move it if it doesn't belong here please.

I would suggest reading through the Infusion thread. I know it's long, but here's the basics:
If using SetCPU (I know a lot of people say you should only use Voltage Control, but no one has been able to specifically point to why, leading me to believe that it's just a bunch of placebo effect crud, since the kernel does all the work and the sysfs interface used by both is the same.
In general: Start with small UV values and then work your way down. Values that work for some people fail for others. For example, some people manage to undervolt by 100 mV at 100-400 MHz, I get SoDs if I undervolt by more than 50 at 100/200 and 75 at 400.
The general rule for the dev forum is: If you have a question that is not answered in the thread for a kernel/ROM and is specific to that ROM, you can post it in that ROM's thread. MAKE SURE you read/search the thread to see if your question has not already been answered! Never post a new thread unless you are specifically raising a development-related topic. (Bug reports and feature requests is NOT development. Exception that I would personally accept is that if you see a bugfix commit in github against a kernel for another Samsung device, or possibly a non-Samsung device that has a bugfix against hardware we have, such as the BCM4330 wifi chipset's crappy power management, and the bug affects our devices, I'd be interested in knowing about the commit so I can investigate applying it.)

If you're on TW ICS, go with imoseyon's lean kernel. That's the only one that's worked consistently for me. The others either don't actually seem to bring any noticeable improvements over stock, or they are far too unstable and/or buggy. Making TW based kernels is tricky, the source is incomplete, minor tweaks that improve AOSP roms don't always have the same results, and major tweaks tend to break stuff. So far, I've found imoseyon's kernel to be the best balance for TW roms, rock solid reliable, and you can undervolt it heavily while still clocking to 1.9ghz. Limited governor selection, but either interactivex or ondemand with a screen-off profile is about as good as you're gonna get anyway.
please read the rules before posting, development is for roms,kernels an mods. not for asking questions bout them,thats what Q&A is for.

I am using it with his rom and it is INCREDIBLE to say the least, but your phone better be able to handle it as some people will get reboots going that high.... Just try in small increments and you will be fine... Good luck!

[Q] Battery life survey

Hey guys,
I'm trying to figure out what people are getting for idle battery drain. It seems the best i've ever been able to achieve is around 3.5% an hour, and never consistently. I've seen some people report idle battery drain close to 1%. So i'm wondering what people are seeing for their idle drain, and asking for as much info as possible about their setup, including rom, kernel, governor, uv/oc, any specific apps frozen or auto-starts removed, google apps or alternatives (such as k9 vs gmail)?
Thanks guys!

There is a difference between help with battery life and a survey. This is also not specific to wakelocks. Please don't assume that people don't search or do research. I have done quite a lot of research, and searching, including reading almost the entire bbs thread (about 900 of the 1000 or so pages). I am asking for what experience other people are having. Also, if you look at my question, it is not about battery life in general, but specific to idle drain percents. You can have phenomenal idle drain percentages, but horrible battery life.
That's the thing this is pointless each phone is different use those threads to maximize your personal performance we already have enough threads on how to boost performance we don't need a survey to see how everyone is doing again its pointless

That may be your opinion, which you are entitled to. I however disagree. I think this is a different topic than "improve my battery life". Yes every phone is different, but that does not invalidate the question. If you do not want to contribute to this thread in a positive manner, please don't clutter it. If people truly feel it is useless, they do not have to post.

OK so knowing exactly what you are looking for in this thread I can tell you you won't find it there are far too many variables. Your looking for an average amongst everyone which is insane. For you to find even an inkling of an idea you need every single point of data I'm talking ROM, kernel, every single installed app, every setting, BBS stats looking for wake locks, what every app does in standby, its far too much data to compute to give you any accurate idea it's a fruitless idea the only thing you can do is go to each ROM thread and look at what people are saying about it.

See that's just it. An average means the good, the bad, the great, the ugly, and the ok. It includes the heavy users and the light users. The people who use data hungry apps, and the people who don't. If enough people contribute, regardless of what apps they are using, you can get an idea. It is not an insane idea.

Instead you continue to attempt to put me down instead of both respecting my wishes to take this offline, and respecting my request to keep the thread relevant. You claim that you are trying to prevent the forum from being flooded with junk postings, yet this is exactly what you are doing instead of helping.

On cm 10 I get about 4 to 6 percent loss a hour. With no notifications. If I get an email and the blink light notification goes off for a while it gets worse. Most of the time it's in my pocket never notice the blink light if I miss the notification. I've recently used set cpu to lower the clock speed to 192. Might help

It was destined to fail from the start. This thread is garbage. All it does is waste space and clutter the place up. We already have battery threads. At least 3 of them that are chalked full of screen shots, set ups, and comparisons.

I just tested mine. With data and wifi off and a few phone calls I woke up to 19 hours 21 minutes on battery and 87% battery remaining. I did use wifi for a few minutes.
I don't have data on my phone yet. Can't justify the price considering how much I would use it.

Looking For Talented Devs to Help With a Rom

Hi I'm kinda new into the development side of android coding, but I know about flashing and the other goodies. I would like to create a team to help me and our android community a revolutionary ROM for our device and then release to other developers to port to other devices. I know that I'm probably going to get ridiculed for posting this hear but I have a few cool ideas that I would like to share that I think would make the Android experience on our phone way cooler.
Here are some of the features that I want to add into the ROM that I want help developing that don't exist and that may already exist:
Add widgets and apps into the pull down menu bar and implement that to when the device is locked. Its kinda like the same idea as in 4.2 but I think can be made more better and efficient.
Various build.prop tweaks for better performance.
Removing the bloatware apps from the ROM for more system space and better battery life.
Automatically drop 4g into 3g after a certain amount of time when phone is not being heavily used for better battery life.
Add a widget to switch between 4g and 3g into the notification bar.
Implement the auto arrangement of apps and widgets on the home screen into ICS like jelly bean has if we build off a stock ICS base.
Implement the 4.2 camera app
Implement the 4.2 gallery app
Implement the 4.2 keyboard app
Implement the 4.2 Gmail app
Implement Google Now
Implement a fully working Google wallet app
Add options to switch betwewn a scrolling/non scrolling wallpaper.
Add options to switch between a 5x5/5x4/4x4 launcher.
Add an option when listening to music to go into airplane mode to save battery life.
Add various audio tweaks for enhanced audio.
Increase the auto sync delay over network connection for better battery life.
Implement a CPU/GPU app to overclock for better performance and underclock for better battery life.
Add better and customizable auto brightness settings.
Allow for custom boot images.
Add 4 way Reboot menu.
Add a brightness slider.
Implement an unlocked bootloader.
Implement holding the back button to kill an app.
Possibly implement the Sony Bravia Engine.
Implement nexus 4 notification sounds.
And possibly implement multiview for apps.
I know that some of these things already exists and I think some of the things that don't exist in our current ROMs can be created with some creative coding.
I think that if this project gets up and running we could build this off of a stock VZW JB ROM or we could build this off of a stock ICS ROM .
Let me know what you guys think about this maybe insane idea level of modification to a ROM and hopefully we can get something started.

iSheep... iSheep... Meowww that's Apple
Dear OP,
Perhaps my response will be more enlightening that some of the others.
First things first. It is understandable to ask for help developing a rom. We all had to start somewhere. We all made mistakes and we all had breakthroughs and anyone who denies this is lying.
Second. Just as we started out from nothing and grown into the devs we are, we had to start by learning on our own. Might I suggest getting a zip of a stock rom and messing with it. Add this, Remove that. Mess up, and restart. Then once you have that, perhaps look at compiling source based roms such as Cyanogenmod. Not only will this get you more comfortable with coding, but rather get you used to spending hours infront of a monitor.
Third, Move from CM to aosp. I know it sounds counter intuitive, but with aosp, you are force to be more creative. Learn how to cherry pick and how to run diffs and such.
Fourth, start something. Anything to show you are making an effort rather than asking for others to code it and hope you get the credit.
This by no means is meant to discourage you, but you will go further and enjoy your creation more if YOU physically stick your hands in the code and mess with it.
Have a great day
atc3030
Considering you never dev'd before maybe try taking baby steps instead of listing every feature under the sun that you want in a Rom plus feature that don't really exist yet.
That does not sound like someone wanting to learn how to dev but more like finding someone to make a Rom for them. We all have the talent to list every feature under the sun we would like to see. That does not qualify someone for dev training. lol
This needs to be deleted

To be fair, had this been posted in general (the correct section) he would have gotten much more help. However people come here looking for ROMs and lately are seeing all these question or incorrect posts.
I hope he does develop something, the more devs the better!
I also think lt would be best if he had something to show before asking for help because basically he is requesting some one build a ROM for him right now.

I think you're missing the point. He asked for help on a ROM he was thinking about making and posted it in the wrong section on top of that. The biggest problem is posting on the wrong forum though By all means release a ROM and purple will appreciate it.
However, release something then ask for help on some features you want to add and other devs will probably help.

Ok here's where I, usually the quiet guy, am going to get flamed I'm sure. I do understand site rules, and the need for organization. BUT, that said, why does everyone have to be totally anal about it all the time here? The "General" and "Q&A" sections here are TOO General. Everything root-related, not root-related,app-related, plan-related,..etc..etc...etc..etc....(you get my point) ALL gets thrown into the same section. This REALLY degrades from questions or statements getting the attention they NEED half the time. Who wants to sift through 5 pages before they find a question they can answer? Not most people. And to put it frankly, the general attitude around here really bites.
In the OP's defense, the Development section(again another generalized,cluttered section), is EXACTLY where I would want to post a question such as this. It just makes SENSE for it to be here. Would I? No. Why? Because I will get a cyber-smack in the nose for doing it, and breaking the iron-clad-follow-the-rules-or-else rule. In fact, I have posted threads in the Q&A and general sections for various devices here at XDA, and guess what? Only one of said threads got me any answers, and NONE got the attention of the people that needed to see them.
Time to rethink our attitudes, guys. The sense of "community" here is lacking..big time. Take some time to venture into other android websites, and search out XDA on them. You'll see TONS of gripes, and TONS of users that will not come here because of the "Snobiness".. to mention only one of the things that is said.
It's a terrible shame to see such a HUGE resource as this site is be filled with the attitude it is, and have such a bad name externally
Flame me, and you just prove my point.
Mods, if I have violated too many rules, please send me a PM, but also please provide me with a name I can contact high-up so I can also talk to them. My apologies, but I'm just fed up with it, but at the same time this is THE place to be for most of my android needs.
Just food for thought.. carry on people and enjoy your day/night.
@Atari... don't want to quote your long post but the development section is the easiest one to figure out especially if you read the guidelines. If you didn't develop something it doesn't go here. How much simpler can it be?
A question about development is not development. Imagine if it was. The actual ROM downloads would end up being on the 2nd and 3rd pages and lost in people just posting questions.

Point taken. At least there could be a development Q&A though. His question would most likely have fallen to page 2 or three of the current Q&A section in no time, as many of the questions do.

Flat out fastest rom out there?

I know this is kind of vague and broad, but I wanted to get your opinions on what the fastest roms are that are out there for the Verizon version of the Galaxy SIII.
I just got mine in the mail today and will be ready to root and get goin in a couple hours after the battery charges. I am coming from the Thunderbolt, may it rest in peace, and MY GOD the lag drove me crazy, so I want the quickest LEAST laggy rom for the SIII !
You've been here since 2011, you should know the difference between Q&A and Development.
this isn't development, shouldn't go here
as far as your question goes, i feel aerovans 4.2.1 is plenty fast enough....others you can tweak and screw with all you want if you have a kernel that supports OC'ing your device......only way to tell what is the fastest in your opinion is to flash each one and test it out...simple as that

Uh oh.. a wrong section violation. OP, hope you have a good lawyer..that's a crime punishable by death around here.
To answer the question though, people's mileage varies with ROMs. Its all in what you load with them(apps, etc.). The fastest are the AOSP ones, if you don't mind losing the bells and whistles, and putting up with the inherent bugs. Other than that, the more stripped the Touchwiz rom is, the faster it generally should be. Look around, see what one has the minimum of what you want, and give it a shot. Unlock your bootloader. Try an overclock kernel. See how it goes
lol, unless its a thread about a ROM you created, it shouldn't go in development or original development threads
if its a specific question relating to a certain ROM, ask it in that ROMs forum but beware to be flamed for not using the search function
if its a question about a theme or app and theres not a thread started in the themes & apps forum, then a question could possibly be asked in there if its relating to that only
all other questions and inquiries should be posted in the Q&A forum.......at least thats the logic i use when posting on the forums lol

Look the problem is if questions are posted in development then it will start to be hard keeping up with development because it will be cluttered by questions. That is why there are seperate sections.
As for them not being answered... Have you looked lately? There are many senior members who spend there time just cruising there to answer questions. Droid style, con, sdy(can't remember the rest now) to name a few. I personally spend most my time in q and a helping out with the little knowledge I have.
To the OP it depends what you mean by fast. If you mean benchmarks then stick with with tw, I prefer beans with lean kernel WAY overclocked. If real world I say AOSP based, they're light and lag free. My personnel favorite is Eclipse

To the OP it depends what you mean by fast. If you mean benchmarks then stick with with tw, I prefer beans with lean kernel WAY overclocked. If real world I say AOSP based, they're light and lag free. My personnel favorite is Eclipse

What are you talking about? Did you read what I wrote I even answered the OP question. I simply pointed out the reason it does matter what forum. As a matter of fact I never even mentioned this was in the wrong spot.

I've always had really good luck with AOSP ROMS in the past on other devices as far as speed goes. Since getting my gs3 I've only tried a couple of TWIZ Roms so far and I'm really pleased with MLJBM with Lean Kernel. Its super fast and buttery smooth and battery is decent as well. With that said I've noticed in the past with previous devices that some Roms respond better on one device and not so much on another. Youre probably best off taking the advice that was mentioned earlier and try a few different ones out for yourself til you find what youre looking for

Proper trolls troll people who don't follow rules. Seems now have double trolls who troll the trolls who are trying to get their troll on trolling this guy who thinks his question is new development. It's a troll eat troll world

Look the problem is if questions are posted in development then it will start to be hard keeping up with development because it will be cluttered by questions. That is why there are seperate sections.

All i was getting at was instead of bashing the person for posting here just help em out and let the moderators deal with moving this to the proper area thats why there are moderators. We are supposed to be a "helpful" community.

Best combination for battery life?

Hello guys
which combination of rom and kernel scores the best battery life?
It's simple:
Kernel: Usage differs
Rom: Questions Belong in Q&A based on 4.4
Sorry if my answer may be 'cocky' but we've got a special section on XDA for questions and answers.

Use the search feature in xda, there are many tips for battery improvement.
On other hand, i get 5 hours 30mins SOT on wifi and 4 hours SOT on 4G with stock rom and with medium usage.
No matter what you do, flashing diff rom/kernel won't get you any proper battery improvement. Just stick with stock rom and wait for Android L for a better battery performance and usage.
Yes stick with stock..
Battery is nothing to do with ROM and kernel combination. It is to do with ROM and kernel settings.

Read the first 4 posts in the battery thread in my signature.
And as pointed out above....roms/kernels make a very minor, if any difference to battery life.
Setup, usage and signal strength are the main factors. ?

I have a notepad for XDA posts and link copy pastes. I'll just add the standard statement for this to it. Lol
Someone asked me to stop repeating this recently, I said no....I won't stop trying to help the misinformed. ?

Its totally based on your use. There's no magic combination that works for everyone!

If there was anything that was "best for battery life", wouldn't someone have been able to prove it by now?
I guess it doesn't help with so many claiming their new ROM/kernel has greatly increased their battery time. Subjective opinions with out proper testing shouldn't be taken as fact though.

think about how many people using any kernel/rom claim that its the best for battery. then again, there are just as many people that claim that the certain kernel/rom give them the same battery life. in reality though, its all about you. how you use your device, how you set it up, which apps you use, etc. but there is one variable that you have no control over, thats the quality of your phone/data connection. and that will determine what is the best battery possibility is for you. if your phone/data signal isnt good quality, then your battery life will always suffer, no matter what.
9 times out of 10....it's the flashing the new Rom and or kernel that clears out an undiagnosed battery issue they had and magically their battery life seems awesome on the new Rom or kernel. ?

Yep. Maybe someone(hint hint) should start an "All-in-one Best thread". Since the reversal of XDA policy I would much rather see all this nonsense contained to one singular thread than reposted in different forms every six hours. I would do it but I'm lazy and wouldn't be able to give that thread the attention it deserves. Just some food for thought.

It's been suggested to do that, like the N7 2012 has had for awhile....but the individual threads are still allowed and preferable to one dedicated thread.
That was told to me. Reason is the "best" questions usually come with something else. Not just "best Rom"....usually best for this or that....or comparing this to that.
I like the one thread idea....but it what it is and those resisting it are best to let it go and ignore the threads if that's their choice.
That was also said by moderators.
Just letting everyone know. ?

Thanks KJ.
I just PM'd one of our mods about the issue. He said he'd go over it with the Mod committee. I also asked for it to be started by a mod and stickied. We'll see what happens. Either way it's the same stuff repeated over and over. Copy and paste. lol

I asked for some rules. Eg "what ROM has this feature set" = yes, ambiguous best threads = no.
However we probably shouldn't hijack these threads to discuss it.
Everyone with suggestions pm a helpful mod such as @El Daddy and maybe we'll get a compromise, but for now let's just answer the threads with the usual answers

Anyone asking questions like this should stick to stock rom and kernel.
If you can't be bothered to actually use some roms and kernels and tell us what you think how can you evaluate an answer?
Also, obviously you are getting into a touchy area and rejecting anything rom/kernel devs can have to say about it. You want them to come here and battle it out for you?
There is no such thing as best, and many of the custom roms and kernels make a good combo. Look at the rom and kernel threads and decide which gives you the options you want.
