CM + G2x still SOD ! - T-Mobile LG G2x

Hi,
I just want to know if he SOD (sleep of death) when charging the phone will ever be fixed with CM roms?
I experience it since a very long time....
Or if this cant be fixed, is there any good workaround and why does the phone SOD?

I have my phone set to max clock at 500 something while charging, stops that.
Also check which apps you have. Some apps cause sod for me (usually widgets).

Check "stay awake while charging" under application-development settings.
It keeps the screen on, also eliminates all sod's

Yup all that does is leave my screen on when I get a text and wake me up with the laser beam of light.

That's why there's this nifty little thing on the phone that let's you change the screen brightness, lol. I just tap the setting on my homescreen until it goes to minimum brightness. Then when I wake up, tap it once and it's back to medium where I usually have it. Although, it takes more than my phone lighting up to wake me up, lol.

Thanks for your inputs guys.
2 things to ask.
Anyone tried a charger with less Milliampere on it. our current is 1.0A. I heard that one with less may fix this.
Also, to the guy setting 500 Mhz when idle, does this reduce battery life or you set this only when charging?

I do it only when charging. I used to do it while the screen was off but it caused occasional SOD.
I'll check my charger. I think it's 5 volts and 750mA.

+1 to setting it to stay awake when charging. After finding out about that, ive never had a SOD so far, and that was a year ago. Not sure why the screen would turn on though when getting a text. Never had that happen to me with people texting or calling me; I always just turn off the screen and it stays off. Guess it might be the kernel?

Put it upside down. It won't get scratched unless you deliberately try to sandpaper the screen :laugh:

I had this problem with stock CM kernel, no SOD with Morfic kernel....never

if you go to the dev menu and disable sleep while charging (check the stay awake box) it fixes the problem.

Could've sworn I said that last page :good:

Yep stay awake do work.
I tried modifying the CPU clock to +- 500 Mhz , but the phone still SOD.
I really think the problem is when the GPU enter idle state when charging.
Are there any tool to monitor GPU clock and changing it?

Is this SOD problem you are talking about part of CM7.2 or CM9? Which CM are you running and who's ROM? I am running Domination ICS w/ CM9 and have no SOD while charging.

Do you know what your time since charged was? (I wish it would display total time since charged there...) The "since charged" definition seems weird and hasn't reset on my phone in ages... I've tended to use "since last unplugged".
Pandora appears to be your #1 wakelocker. eBay mobile seems to be pretty bad too.
NetworkLocation wakelocking can be eliminated by unchecking all of the location features in Settings except for when you want network location/GPS.

I assume you were listening to Pandora during that time, in which case, that wakelock is normal. Playing music from your device will also hold a wakelock when the screen is off. If you weren't listening to Pandora at all, then something is wrong.
Whoa. Why the heck is eBay holding that wakelock . Check your notification settings and if it's still holding it, clear its data and try again. Otherwise, I'd uninstall it. I always use the browser to access eBay anyway.

No. In the device settings, turn GPS off until you need it and leave network location checked/enabled. Go into Fancy Widget under weather settings and UNcheck/disable GPS location (GPS is unnecessary for weather updates), verify that network location is checked. Then, I would recommend changing your refresh settings (to update less frequently). I'd bet you have it set to update more frequently than an hour. I also use Fancy Widget and mine is set to 3 hours. This should take care of your network location wakelock (unless another app is also updating with network location).
BTW if Wifi is on but not connected, in Froyo it seems to scan way too often regardless of build.prop setting. Netloc should wakelock less if wifi is off.

I installed BetterBatteryStats because I was curious as to why my phone always seemed to drain so quickly. I am rooted and running infused 1.5.3. I have very few widgets, one that actually accesses anything, and don't do much but surf the net or the forums in the morning. I would unplug it at 6:30 and go to work. By about 8 or so I would already be at 90% or less. That was me hardly using it. Well I hope I got my answer. Apparently Beautiful Widgets was KILLING me on the wakelocks! I wish I took a picture of it before I uninstalled it but jesus it was bad! Thanks for the good info I'm gonna keep an eye on it and see how it does.
Oh funny thing is, I was not even running Beautiful Widgets! I use Fancy Widget instead lol.

No, slow charge is a few other things. ALL android phones wakelock when charging.
The phone shouldn't count CPU/screen/etc usage against charge current at all but it does. It seems to do it less so on GB. Still does it, but the spikes seem lower even if I crank stability test. Gonna be a while before I can test a navigation run.
Seems like on GB, difference between screen off and running stability test with screen on is about 200 mA. Haven't tested in that much detail on froyo. Another way of putting that - putting the screen on and cranking CPU will reduce charge rate by at least 1/3 of the 600 mA charge limit.

Death of sleep ?

I'm on CM7 official. I'm having problem that if I turn off the screen when running some apps like alkido reader, after 10 min I cannot turn the phone on any more. No response whatever. Usually a battery pull will be ok, but I don't want pull my battery all day. If I exit to the home screen its ok.
Anybody knows what's the problem? How can I solve it? Thanks for any help.

First it's called the Sleep Of Death or SOD.
Also, did you change any system settings? (Overclocked, messed with voltage settings, etc.)
No, it's stock CM 7.1. I also tried reflash it without wiping the data. It doesn't help.

Oh comon.. but isn't that cool! When I was first trying to hack my phone I landed on some variation of samsunginfuse.com and that was one of the tips that I picked up there. Really glad that I did. Our phone seems to be one of the only ones that it actually worked on. But I know what you're saying. You want it the way it should be. I got it. I personally just hate auto brightness. And it pisses me off the way that browser completely has it's own settings. Yes, I know that you can download a separate broswer just pisses me off.. ranting woops.. I do that a lot when I can type quickly on the computer.
If you want it auto, flash something else...

It doesn't dim much, about like it would if I had auto brightness enabled. Overclocked to 1.6 probably doesn't help. My battery temp is only at 98.6 after a good 30 min on Tapatalk. Never really timed how long before it dims.
On another note, I can't believe the difference in speed from Froyo to this Rom. Using Zeus 5.2 with ICS theme. Used UOT kitchen to change my battery indicator.

[Q] EaglesBlood GingerBread ROM - Shutting Down During Night Charge

.
Hi
.
Anyone knows about this? Fix? Change ROM? What to do? Phone is shutting down during night time charge. I was late for work twice already
This is covered several times in the EB thread. I believe you have to go to development and tell the phone to stay awake when the screen is off.
I'm on CM7 and I had that problem so at night I just turn on my set cpu profile for screen off to be like 500 or so mhz max and it doesn't happen to me much anymore. Worth a shot.

It's under development settings, where you would set it to use debugging.
Can't really check right now, on a CM9 ROM.
From the home screen:
Settings ->
Applications ->
Development
check "Stay awake". You can still turn the screen off manually with the power button.

[Q] What is eating up my battery?

Ok so yesterday and today my battery has been atrocious. 5 hours on IDLE and it went from 100 to 55%. What the hell? Under battery usage it says android OS ~23%, clock ~18% and android system ~22% as the top 3.
Get the app betterbatterystats and see what was keeping your phone awake. It was most likely a deep sleep issue. I would also suggest cpu spy. Goodluck

as ckck says, this app will help you narrow down the problem as to which app it is. Its a paid app but a free dev version is available here on xda. CPUSpy as he also mentioned is an app to check whether or not your phone is going into deep sleep. If it's not, an app is definately keeping it awake, which is your problem.
If you're running the ICS leak go to Settings->Sound and uncheck "Touch sounds" and "Screen lock sound". I did this and it tripled my battery life.
