Take it on a date!
Check and see what processes are running and check your clock speed.

Phone Stress Apps

And NO I don't mean for our stress but an app that makes the phone work at 100% load. Almost like PRIME95 that us PC nerds use.
There isn't one yet I know of.

Is this normal??

When I unlock my phone and swipe to the next screen it is unresponsive and have to take several swipes sometimes before the phone wakes up and goes to the next screen.

Are you rooted?

Doesn't sound very 'normal' to me.
What was the last change you made?
To answer your question......no...

This is not normal. A few questions for you though:
1. Did you root your phone or mod it in any other way?
2. Are you using an alternative launcher?
3. If a third-party app is causing this, it may be hard to diagnose. Could you go into Settings > About phone > Battery use and list the apps and usage numbers? This could provide some leads.
Had this problem with a non-standard background-picture and 3d wallpaper.
(not rooted/unlocked 2.3.4)
I opened thread abou tuning touchscreen, if you still on 2.3.3 u can use modified netarchy kernel fixing this issue.

This kernel works great with cm7.02.
Not working with 2.3.4

Thank you guys!
OK so I notice that this happens sometimes when I use heavy wallpapers. So switched to lower size wallpapers and is doing the trick.
My phone is not rooted. I want to root it and customize it so bad but I'm afraid to brick my phone.

You guys are great!!! Thanks again!! Would love to have cm7 on my phone.... Hey anyone from NYC want to meet up and hook up my phone lol!!

how many accounts to do you have sync'd to the phone? gmail, facebook, sense (etc)
and do you have the networks and locations all checked, for navigation etc.
I Didnt have the VZW location checked just standalone and Google I took standalone off and checked VZW is that right or should I have all 3??
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA Premium App
You can use whatever you want. I leave google location services enabled and then I enable standalone gps whenever I need it (ie. Navigation, maps, etc.)
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
Ok so I can turn the vzw one off to?
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA Premium App
you can turn them all off, just back on if you need navigation.
Oooo ok thanks!

pretty sure that shouldnt be draining the battery like that. check the accounts that are set to sync on your phone (gmail, facebook) and see the interval that each is set to refresh.
It was set to 1hr I switched it to 4 maybe that should help

And my weather was set at 15mins switched it to 2 he's
sent from Thunderbolt using XDA Premium App
so all you have syncing is gmail and weather?
I had to turn everything off, message stopped.

Xperia Slim not what I was expecting

Ok I have flashed nearly every gs4g Rom but this Rom really really impressed me. I thought it would look good but be clunky and slow but on the contrary it was sleek fast and beautiful. Thanks developer you have really made me consider sticking to this Rom and not Rom hop every other day. I just wanted to give the developer some more notice. Thanks again!!!!

Yes im really digging it too. Coupled with Seeder app and android tuner it runs pretty sweet. Can't wait for GPS to be smoothed out.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
Thanks for letting me know about that seeder app just bought it the reviews sounded all positive. I'm definitely going to follow this Rom as it gets better the only thing I might switch too is cm 10.1 by beast once he gets the Wi-Fi working. Thanks again for letting me know about seeder!!

Just an FYI the GPS is automatically turned on but I don't think it is working right now.
I had some battery drain issues and the culprit was GPSlocation Provider according to Better Battery. Only way to correct it is to turn it off and reboot to stop it from causing a wakelock.
Only issue I have now is RILJ wakelock and PowerManagement Service.
The RILJ seems to be a JB thing.
Anyone else having small problems like this.

i was told power manage was wifi
K well at least that explains that part of the mystery
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
Power manager is code for check partial wakelocks and see which app is sucking down battery. Wow wakelock and wlan are wifi. Whenever I was on jb the maps app kept acting up and trying to turn on gps even when I wasn't running it, I used greenify to put it to sleep when I wasn't using it and that seemed to work.
Heh, thanks dude n I have a lil secret fo u all: this rom using the newest n unreleased kernel of Erik...pssst (@ Erik: sorry bro) n amw, social life app of sony xperia Z ported so if u want, search on XDA

App that helps battery?

Are there any apps out there that LEGITIMATELY help save/prolong battery life? I have memory booster running but that just helps my phone run smoother by killing cached app processes. Anything you guys can recommend?
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
This phone requires it's own nuclear power plant lol.
Seriously though, don't use memory boosters. They kill battery.
My setup is, CPU Tuner with timeriffic to set display brightness. With Maz's latest kernel I can get by... mind you I live in a very bad signal area (2 bars if I am lucky).
I set cpu to 216 when screen off with performance governor. Also I turn off data and Wi-Fi when screen turns off.

I have mazs latest beta kernel as well. Don't really see a difference in battery life from his previous oc kernel. Ill try CPU tuner though

Sure, but be careful with it. I once it accidentally to low enough power to where I could not get out of screen off (kept going back to screen off). Also using one cpu does not work.

Does CPU tuner even work with a kernel that not over clockable?

Would, but only two cpu states will be accessible... fairly useless.
Edit: you need voltage states for intermediate voltages, then it should work. But I have never seen a non OC kernel with granular voltage definition.

Antutu battery saver is genius. on the pulldown notification it gives battery % (+battery added)
so like 100%((+30)
also clean master (which is a memory booster) doesn't run in background so it doesn't deplete battery as much as some others
Sent from my LG-P999
i installed android booster, but also procured a brand new stock battery, and i actually am enjoying about 50-60% increase in battery life... although it still is not a lot (as far as i'm concerned!) after draining it, recharging to 100%, and then calibrating, i went 7 hrs 47 mins from 100% to 50% with normal use - calling, texting, some video, some gaming. not to bad considering my old battery would only last about 3 hours or less with the same kind of usage!!!

Check out DS Battery saver. I use it on my N7, catch is, to save battery it turns off all wireless signals. It also forces the device into deep sleep as well.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
well i wouldn't want ALL wireless signals to be disrupted. How would i receive phone calls lol
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
Yea, if you get the paid version you can create custom profiles. It's a nice app for a tablet, but only so nice for a phone.

I have used it. Phone works (would be pointless otherwise as we already have the airplane mode).

I just started using "Auto3G" to turn off data and periodically cycle it on to check for emails, etc. I'm getting over 48 hours with mild use.

I'm using Trinity ELP file "ELP-G2x-06022012.zip", which has worked best for me as my G2X doesn't work that well with faux-based kernels. I'm also running dual boot with Maz's awesome JB rom with hardware acceleration - this is where I install games and experimental apps.
