[Q] ICS: CM9 Beta 7 vs Virtuous Quattro? - General Questions and Answers

I'd like to start by saying this is my first post. I have used XDA since I got my HTC Vision and am a huge fan of this website, I would like to start with a comparison of CM9 Beta 6 with beta 7 kernel and Virtuous Quattro RC3
I am coming the Virtuous G-Lite v1.0.7 rom and absolutely love the speed and battery, but I think its time to upgrade to Ice Cream Sandwich.
After I test these two today I will let you know what I think of the two. Looking forward to your responses and why.
Here's what I will mainly be looking for
Overall speed
Battery life
Keyboard backlight
Fast switching b/w apps especially Messaging & Browser
Fast web browser
Working GPS
Toggles (Wifi, BT, Torch, GPS, Data & Brightness)
Customization / Options
Cyanogen Mod 9.0.0 RC0 Beta 6 w/ Beta 7 kernel (for working wifi)

Seemed pretty zippy, didnt install all my apps. Quadrant score of 2251 at max CPU frequency. opening up phone was a tad slow.
Cant get an accurate rating on the battery life but 4% went by when testing everything in about 15 min.
keyboard backlight works! does NOT need to be set to auto in order to work.
Messaging opens swiftly, browser opening and home page load was sub-par
GPS works perfectly
Like the toggles above the date, saves room. easy set up
Nice homescreen options, themes, profiles, lock screen shortcuts, dev options/performace, also like how the "turn on USB storage" screen pops up as soon as you connect your USB
Dislikes
Not too much to complain about seems like a good daily ROM. Everything seems to work fine. Unfortunately due to time and impatience I cant get a good grip on how decent the battery life was. If you know this please let me know! I have only read about it having bad battery life..

Seemed faster than CM9. Scored a 2195 on Quadrant, 3489 for CPU.
Battery life isnt as good as G-lite so far, seems better than CM9. Have read someone got 30% bettet than gingerbread?
keyboard backlight only works if "auto brightness" is selected
no lag between apps it seems, once again, I have not backed up all my apps that I normally have..
Slight lag because of an auto google sign in
GPS works but is kind of laggy at initial opening, 2nd restart works perfect.
Toggles are great, many customizable options, has switches but also the classic press to turn on. I also liked the birghtess slider toggle vs 24% 50% 75% Auto. etc..
VERY customizable, cool tweaks with battery and clock in status bar, many options with lock screen pretty neat stuff! Also has the auto turn on usb storage, must be an ICS thing?
Overall seemed like a great ROM, better than CM9 in my opinion, came with the latest gapps so that was nice I didnt have to flash that. Also boots up very fast!
Max CPU can be set to 1920 MHz instead of 1843 MHz, I would never run it everyday at this speed, but again just a nice little tweak. Really like the Quattro Control.
Dislikes
Not much for dislikes besides all the initial lags with first time using of apps. I wish I did not have to have Auto Brightness on for the keypad to work, at night or in movies.. etc I would miss being able to have brightness all the way low AND have my keypad backlight. With Quattro, it only works with it on Auto (which in dark rooms is set to about 25%)

While both these two ICS seem to be a major improvement from Gingerbread, I am not sure if any ROM will beat the battery life of G-Lite v1.0.7! I could go for 2 hours before I went under 90%, with ICS it seems to drain pretty quick. If G-lite had the same type of toggles Quattro did, I would definitely be keeping G-lite. Anyways these were my opinions of CM9 and Quattro in comparison to GB. Let me know what you think!

I am using CM9 Nightly (13.05) and like it. But there is one problem with GPS drivers, most of navigation apps didnt work. F.e.:
- Sygic (not working)
- Navigon (not working)

More replies would be great here. I'm rooting a friend's Desire Z and am trying to choose between them. I have CM9 on my Galaxy S2, and initially planned to put that on the Desire Z, but from inspecting both ROMs, Virtuous seems to have the edge.

Camera Working or not?
Hi, is the camera working on ANY of these ROMs?
Tried Virtuous Quattro RC3 last week and I had to go back to CM7.2_RC3.. The camera does'nt work well, images get corrupted and there is no autofocus.
Also, the occasional graphics glitch when accessing Google Play.
I upgraded from CM7.2 RC1 to RC3 by just wiping the Dalvik Cache, would I be able to do the same with CM9 Beta?
Thanks!

Does anyone get an error installing ics of cw9 (iteration) in cwm with an error that states something like this but for i9001.

[Q] battery stuck & Camera does not work froyo

I installed incubus's froyo RLS15. It ran smoothly and most of it (Wi-fi and Bluetooth, making Calls) seems to work fine. But the battery meter and the Camera doesn't work at all.
The camera application gives a Green screen and the Batter meter won't charge (even after keeping it plugged in for hours it just stays at 15 % and android gives me warnings, it still runs though)
Is there any way I can get these to work properly once again.
Same Problems here
I have the same Problems here. No Camera, only green screen, and battery runs out very quick. took a lot of hour to load. Sometimes when i reach the 15% battery limit the system shutdown. After loading and reboot the system give a lot of error messages, like google.api.acore have to be closed or google.api.bluetooth or google.api.mms or something like that. System is not usable anymore and need to be reinstalled by pressing the DPAD during the startup.
I like Froyo RLS 15 on my old Polaris. I flashed the NAND, overlocked to 525 MHz and if the system is running (during one battery load) it make everything very good and fast except the camera function mentioned above.
(In this time my WM-Phone have to stay at home)
What could the problems be about the battery?
Regards the Honkman
About Camera, my experience is according to Radio & Kernel. Please try to flash you Radio, and use 2.6.25, I think its better than 2.6.32
Thanks for the hint with the radio. I will try it and maybe change the kernel.
Where can I get a radio
I just hard-spl and flashed the rom with the steps from "[UP 12/08/2010]simple steps to flash andriod on NAND"
They didn't mention anything about a radio there.... where can I get the radio and how do you install it?

Battery Problem [CM7]

Hi everybody!
So I am using CyanogenMod 7 Beta5.1 And I'm having huge battery problems...
It's draining abnormally fast (30% lost during night).
It started to happen when I got problems with my Defy and flashed 3.4.3-11
And now updated to 3.4.2-117.
Before these problems it usually drains only 3% during night!!
Also everytime I boot my phone, when it's completely booted I hear the camera sound (when you open camera app,it makes a physical sound).. It never happened before...
I overclocked my phone to 1100Mhz but I don't think it really affects the battery (when screen off it's set to 500Mhz)
Please help me!....
I was having that problem and I turned fast boot off and it solved the problem for me. The phone doesn't really shut down all the way if fast boot is on.

um... a new thread? really?
by the way, i have this problem too since beta 1.. i don't know why..
but i still like it because CM7 is so fast without OC.
i try to compare froyo and CM7, with same apps and same apps settings,
CM7 lost the battery faster than froyo, even when in flight mode.
the strange one is, even the memory usage is so low on CM7 (no motoblur crap),
but why battery still drains so fast..
in battery usage statistics,
on CM7, it shows that "Display" is the one who responsible drinking so much juice (60% and the other is just 3-10%).
on froyo, is not the "Display" which responsible drinking most of the juice, it is "Cell Standby".
i thought gingerbread should have good battery management, and the battery should last much longer than froyo.
i'm sure it is a bug on CM7 for Defy.
but whatever, at least we have a Gingerbread on Defy from a great dev like Quarx.
while motorola working so slow on releasing froyo with its motoblur crap.
Hi guys,
I'm having this issue too, and i note since a few days ago. I don't know why, but my Defy is sucking his battery too fast. Could it be a bug ?
it's a little bit difficult to follow the bugs and the solutions in a huge thread like the other one. so i think that this that could be a mayor problem for all of us should be treated in a differente thread.
I use Motocharge since 1 day to follow how it discharge during the day.
I say it in the other thread, the phone loose a lot of battery when i don't touch it. sometimes it loose like 5% in 15mins and i don't touch it. maybe it doesnt sleep well, i don't know..
I hope that Quarx can solve this, because in the other betas of him i don't have the problem. only in the 5.1.
battery draining
I think It´s a bug, because I used before BETA 5.0 and without any battery life was almost 3 days in normal use, bur now with BETA 5.1 only two days or less.
By the way I´d proved with 3 or 4 diferent roms, but the same result.
But I´m sure Quarx will deleted this bug in the next version
same problem for me,but b3 and b4 is ok

apart from low battery life.....i noticed substantial increase in battery temp..normally its 32-34 deg cel.....but wid CM7 it raises to 42-45 deg cel.....waiting for a solution so that i can come back to CM7...
I use Toggle 2G/3G to switch to 2G when phone goes to sleep. I set wifi to never sleep and use it as much as possible over 3G. I also set brightness levels long time on 16 so that in the shadow I always use just a little energy. This way I almost get double battery live.
+ it's better for battery to charge every night, empty or not, and let it go lower just occasionally.

yes, this issue is really annoying, 30% battery drain overnight.
something is definitely running unreasonably... hope find it.
I think it depends upon what "type" of defy u have. My battery that only used to last for 12-14 hours in eclair now went for 2 days last 2 charges.
Also depends upon how many widgets and apps u running... hard with mobile phones to judge battery as so many independent variables.

OK Guys, this is an old thread, but I think it should be deleted or at least people should read this before registering this thread in their mind:
The battery drain 'issues' were almost always due to two things:
1- For the beta 6 version or older of CM7- there was a bug with the auto-brightness which was heavily stressing the cpu and making the system lag badly - hence: the battery drain. To fix this: you have to stay on auto-brigthness. So just make sure that the auto-brightness box is checked and ON. Additional info: some users also complained about the 4 action buttons (menu, home, back and search) not lighting up ---> fix: un-check auto-brightness and re-select it: done!
2- Users did not set their Network baseband properly. Fix: use the Defy Baseband Switcher application and select the newtwork that applies to you. If you don't do this, your phone might have signal reception (phone and sms) but it will use more power to communicate and get a proper lock to your phone service provider.
I don't know what is the exact build # that brought the Defy Baseband Switcher (as far as I can remember, CM7 beta 4.1 had it) but all the 'newest' CM7 will have it anyway.
And if you want to further decrease your battery consumption, you can still do it like this:
- use the bootloader cpu settings: OC'ing and governernor type to change the cpu speed. [From CM7 default 1000MHz to the Defy's stock 800MHz] and change the governor type from "interactice" default to "on demand" [OK: I'm not sure about governor change will improve or not but that is the Froyo's default I believe].
- install SetVsel to underclock --> by lowering cpu Vsel upon the 3 cpu frequencies. Do some reading; you might need to uncheck its "[email protected]" option AND also have Milestone Overclock installed for it to work properly.
- USE a recent nightly (post May 29th: there was a possible problem with custom recovery backup restoring prior to that) and you will be able to set your screen display brightness as low as you want [fix the bug described in point 1- above].
- use DroidWall and/or the CM7 built-in applications' permissions control to block some apps' access to internet and networks. BE WARNED though: changing permissions CAN make an application stop working or create problems - don't submit bug reports if you do that.
- Avoid high usage of apps that drain battery quickly (TuneIn radio is power-thirsty one that comes to my mind...) and apps that have to create catalogs and thumbnails (ex: Photoshop, Titanium Backup, Gallery, ...)
- If possible: use 2G network only, disable data synch, auto updates of apps and social networks.
- set your WiFi sleep policy to "Never" [while in Wi-Fi settings, press menu button/ Advanced] and avoid frequent Wi-Fi ON/OFF switching.
- Lower your display brightness and switch that screen off at any chance you got!
There are many other ways I'm sure, but those are the main ones anyway...
I've seen high temps yesterday on my Defy, but I later realized that I forgot to re-set my Baseband after a CM7 nightly install... It 'could' also happen when a (background) service goes "beserk" and overload the cpu: absolutely not necessarily related to CM7 --> faulty apps and bugs happen... Just stop and clear the cache of that app and/or reboot your phone and problem should be gone.
CM7 is now really stable; a VERY FEW little hickups remaining still (like with the camera, but negligeable), but the large amount of new user controls that it brings clearly overcomes the 1 or 2 minor bugs left --> IMO, just having control over each and every applications' permissions justifies forgetting about using Eclair and Froyo. Problems in CM7 are being actively sorted out and new user controls and other useful options are added in almost daily manner through the nightly builds.
I'm categoric: on CM7, I now have more control over where my battery juice goes that I've ever had on Froyo....
So please stop alarming people with high battery usage drainage on CM7 and give it a try by following the right proper steps; I'm sure that you won't regret it.

Display instead of cell standby showing up first in battery consumption means that Froyo (or CM7) uses less battery. The display just stayed the same of course, unless it's tuned brighter, the percentage increased because it's a relative measurement.

Skyrocket Review on SKY-JB rom

Hi All,
I can't post on Sean's thread since I am a new guy...
Well - I have flashed custom rom from Sean's - seanzscreams :good: (SKy JB 1/10/12) and it's great - thank you for the great work,
Few issues I did found :
When using a car charger the phone gets really really hot...
The BT bug (cyanogen's 10 known) and I tested 4.4 fix which seems to work for me - although after 4.4 fix - my in call audio was routed to the speaker...??? Maybe there is something in the thread there - I should check...
I use an application which is called Peak stocks to follow on stocks - and it does not show the graph for some reason... (it was working fine on stock rom and on sky ICS)
also - I am missing the Stock voice SW from Samsung (which is actually Vlingo based,,,) it was working great rather than the voice commander used currently which is not recognizing my English very well...
The home screen shortcut edit does nםt work after you save - I tried adding a direct dial shortcut and it wasn't showing...
The phone responsiveness is quite good, personally I set the touch sensivity to 100%.
Missing also is the contact join function from various accounts like Skype, Google, whatsapp etc...
Overall for a development ROM it is very solid and good
Thanks for a great work on Skyrocket Jelly Bean
When pressing the Back button from the dialer - it will not go back to the main screen.
Had I was able to post my finding there I would have...

The graph that was not showing is now visible on peak stocks - to fix that I had to disable the "Force 2D apps to use GPU" under developer tab.
it now works
it might indicate something with the GPU processing on CM10?
Updates after 24 hours
Well,
It has been almost 24 hrs of use,
I put the phone on silent using "quiet mode".
Left it alone at 93% battery,
After 5 hours of non use - the battery was at 37%, wifi was on. screen was off.
Will keep on posting.

After making a clean install on SKY-JB 5.0 base and its update -
Battery life has improved - I got 16 hrs and 6% left, while playing temple-run syncing emails, and using the screen (35%)
1080p playback is still having color issues
There is an issue with the sensors - sometimes they hang (temple run...)
I'll try the new update...
Phone almost burnt...

Hi Guys,
Yesterday I had a strange thing on the phone -
I plugged it into the usb cable I've been using to connect it to both Charger and PC, after a few min I started smelling something is burning...
I touched the phone and it was so hot - discennected the charger immidiately, then noticed the cable was melted, also small damage to the usb surrounding on the phone
I had to clean the contactors and replace the USB cable - now it seems o.k - Watch out...
Changed Kernel???

Hi,
an update on battery life -
Charged the phone using USB (from PC) to 100%.
Left it alone using Ondemand CPU governer for the night.
No Calls, Wifi was left on, Sync on.
I got ~18.5 hrs until it went down to 7%.
See screenshot:
Amazing job - considering the use of Temple run game

[Q] Which Kernel should I use to reduce battery drain? [CM 10.1]

Hey everyone!
I flashed CM 10.1 yesterday (cm_p500-userdebug-cm-10.1 from jenkins. androidarmv6.org/job/android/ and I'm amazed how smooth and perfect it is working (A huge 'Thank you!!' to the developer )
The problem is that my battery drain is awful. It took less than 8 hours today to completely discharge, though I hardly touched it.
I used Battery Calibration and also installed "WakeLock Detektor" to see where the problem is, and it stated that my phone isn't asleep 99% of the time though the display is turned off most of the time :crying:
The main reason is a kernel-related thing named "suspend_backoff" that keeps it awake.
I wanted to install a different kernel, but I got no clue which one... I actually planned on installing the recent DorimanX-Kernel, but then recognized that this is only available for the Galaxy SII
Can anyone recommend a Kernel that keeps my system running smooth but the battery drain at a minimum? I basically need my phone for Messaging (SMS, WhatsApp, E-Mail), Calendar and once in a while as navigation system. So no need for spectacular game performances or so.
Are there other Ways to improve my battery life on that phone (I've read all the general tips for improving battery life)? Maybe some OC things I can change manually?
I'm grateful for any help. Thanks!

I found SweetnSour's version 11 kernel quite good with cm10.1.
However, the ROM needs some help to get good battery life:
Install 2xBatterysaver. It will turn off data and WIFI when the screen is off (turn them on periodically to allow syncing). There are various apps like this one.
Control WIFI. Use Y5 battery saver or Whiz WIFI manager. Y5 is tiny and effective but crashes on cm10.2. Both check for favorite hotspots, leave WIFI on and turn it off when leaving the hotspot.
Thanks for your quick response!
Just tried to flash Sweetnsour's Kernel, but it won't work. I flashed this one --> versionFINAL-CFS.zip
Is that the correct one or rather one of those? -->" version11-CFS-TWRP.zip" or "version11-CFS.zip"
Edit: What actually are CFS respectively TWRP? Searched the forums but couldn't find an answer
[solved] or rather [solvished]
After days of trial and error, cutting and re-enabling all connections from WiFi to 3G and hibernating, un- and re-installing basically all of my apps and trying loads of other roms I didn't love as much as this in the least, I found the source for my phone being awake basically 100% of the time.
The changelog of the mod stated that there's still this WiFi-issue that keeps the phone awake.
Well, though I've tried before, It now works: switching off the WiFi connection finally gets my phone to sleep.
I think I'll just be running on my mobile data for the followin days or weeks until this bug has been fixed.
Btw: A little hint for the developer (I'm posting here, since I'm a noob and can't post in the developers forum): When switching the WiFi options to turn out WiFi whenever screen goes dark, it won't connect afterwards. I always needed to reboot my phone when I wanted WiFi to work again. (This bug also caused my mobile data not to work. It apparently thought WiFi was running, though it couldn't connect.)

i was using it last year
Nice reveiws
I havent used all of them but did use AOSIP,AICP,Mokee,Xiaomi.eu rom,crdroid.
*AOSIP is good but it was giving me heavy battery drain and heating.
*AICP rocks! but unfortunately the thread has been discontinued. also, the root works but you have to go to magisk settings and enable is manually from there. other than that, great battery and performence.
*crdroid- It is what i am using now, performence is smooth but it laggs when watching vedios on chrome. testing battery life.
*Xiaomi.eu had a great battery life but it felt too laggy after using AICP. also it had heating issues and it was on android L.
*Mokee 5.0 was great in terms of battery and performence. But 6.0 build had battery drain and the sensors are not working. but it offers butter smotth performence!
please post your opinions
