[APP][SHARE] Seeder Entropy Generator : Provides Significant Lag Reduction - Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps

Hi everyone
Seeder is an app that aims to reduce lag by 90% on Android.
It uses different method of generating random numbers which improves IO scheduling and in turn reduces lag. I have tried it on my G3 and it does help while loading apps like Google Maps and browsing.
This only works on 2.2+. I have tested it on CM7.2.

Google Play Link - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lcis.seeder
It's a paid app on the Play store but the dev has uploaded it to xda for free. The paid app is for donation.
I am JUST sharing this app and telling you guys that this works on our G3. Not affiliated with anyone.

You should mention that it also drains the battery and it's not perfectly working yet so it's a work in progress. Many people have said that all it does it keep the CPU speeds higher and wake the CPU every second or something so the phone doesn't go into deep sleep. This is why the battery dies quicker and when I was using it I also noticed the battery drain.

Indeed.
I did give it a shot, noticed a slight difference (perhaps a placebo) but it sure did reduce my battery life by 70%.

It's proved by Google devs themselves that this IS a placebo effect.
Here's their input -
The only users of /dev/random are libcrypto (used for cryptographic operations like SSL connections, ssh key generation, and so on), wpa_supplicant/hostapd (to generate WEP/WPA keys while in AP mode), and the libraries that generate random partition IDs when you do an ext2/3/4 format. None of those 3 users are in the path of app execution, so feeding random from urandom does nothing except make random… well… less random
So, this is pretty useless. Yeah.

70% Battery Usage by Google Maps!

Any idea what's up with this? Surely this isn't meant to happen. I don't even use google maps, don't think I've even opened it ever.

EDIT: Saw that there was an update pending. Installing, will report what happens.
Mine is almost always 90% display, even though I have all of the power saving options set on my Mesmerize... My battery lasts maybe 8-9 hours, but usually more like 6-7. It's terrible. Any ideas?
Its a known bug, install autostart from market and desible the autostart option for google maps. Try this and you will get a lot more battery.

sorry to revive and thread. I installed autostart, but not sure exactly how to disable the google maps or other apps. Any clue or pointers?
TIA.
Try using titanium backup (free) and freeze google maps or , if you don't use it, delete it using the same.

Whoa. Do you have the touchscreen bug fix kernel applied? Because without that CPU usage on touching the screen is way too high and that would cause a lot more battery usage. 90% is still too much though.
And yeah, I updated to the latest version and it doesn't seem to be doing any weird stuff now. I'll keep a watch over the course of the day.
this is a bug that is stated somewhere in the thread.. either Cyanmod7 or Gingerbread. both have these problems.

Seems like it, also, how can I tell if these apps are on in the background or only draining during usage?
I guess that if you're connected to a network it will constantly be checking for the adds.
Use better battery stats, it will tell you everything you need to know for each app that uses battery.
AdFree? yes, it sure does.
Your posted image, my daily experience along with Biporch's thought, surely it does.
The question is that should we get rid of AdFree or keep it or any other alternative tool that not causing battery drain.
I use adfree to manually update the hosts file occasionally, but leave everything else off in settings.
Try Adaway. Its a nice alternative to adfree
No drain

CollegeProfesor what program is that you are using to track battery usage. Seems very nice.
I do have better battery stats but it isnt as easy to view.

That is BetterBatteryStats. He is looking at the Process view, which can be obtained by clicking on the dropdown menu at the very top and choosing Process. If you are asking about the overall look of the app, seems like he has some ICS-esque theme going on there.
This is just the battery stats viewer that comes with the miui from

You folks could also just place the host file yourself. No ad blocking application required. Though my favorite is adaway. Essentially init.doh adblocking is adaway with 1 more list merged thanks to adaway's awesome features.
Yea, I like adaway because it's open source.
Well, 2, 3 seniors suggest adaway then adaway, here I come
Give it a try.
Thanks all

I am sharing this app because not to gain thanks i want people benefit from this
I also tried One Power Guard after seeing it mentioned on a recent XDA TV episode. For me it seems to slow things down, which was probably a problem with the way I have things set up (I wonder if this was caused by a combination of One Power Guard and my use of Link2SD?). I installed it and the slow-down went away.
This should be posted in the Themes/Apps board. This app looks pretty good, the overlay on the home screen is awesome. Do you use it in conjunction with the built in power saver or do you just use this app?

LG OPTIMUS G E970 Android OS battery drain

Hi, i have some problems with this process, in battery use from settings, the android OS has a BIG BATTERY DRAIN, this works since the phone is unplugged, and my phone haven`t deep sleep, i lose 2-3% percent per hour in better battery stats the phone is awake ALL TIME and CPU SPY show me the lowest frequency is 384mhz and deep sleep doesn`t exist HELP ME PLEASE
Have you tried turning off all non-important services and sync , and see if that helps ??
Also there are some after market applications available on play-store that prevents such wake ups , by killing them. I couldn't recall them properly but I think they are named as Deep Sleep battery saver or something similar.
You can also use android tuner , to see what are the causes behind that.(Task manager has extensive features to look and control them.)
i havent active services (auto sync off,facebook notifications off, messenger off, gps off, google location off, etc), so i dont know what happen ill try to post some screen of my battery uses, this may help, thanks man! and sorry for my english
try some app like android tuner , it'll tell you which specific process is keeping it alive . It'l give more detailed insights into the running tasks.

Can't say about it just by looking at these charts . You'' have to use some third party tool that provides monitoring of system processes . It'll give some info.

[Q] Prevent Google Play Services wakelock

I've tried some methods like:
App Ops (root) - Disabled location and wakelock
Wakelock Terminator - Prevent wake lock (with filters: NIpCollectorWakeLock NIpWakeLock CheckinService NetworkLocationLocator)
The battery usage is still high (higher than the screen usage), and the awake time on battery history occurs a lot (see image).
Has anyone fixed this? Or has anyone just generally improved battery life through something similar?
Kernal: 2.2 bonuzzz

Thanks

I'll also give it a go. Trying with an app that simulates init.d executions also, so if it works, I may be able to automate it on boot.
Thanks for the heads up. Will report back in a day or so

Not sure it worked. I still don't have great battery life. Something is wrong, and my phone is constantly awake.

So, at the end of the day. I tried many different approaches to solve this issue such as:
preventing wakelock
using applications like greenify to reduce usage
removing google services permissions
preventing syncing
None of these seemed to help a lot (and some even made battery lift worse!).
So, I've removed all of my battery saving apps etc, and have just resorted to disabling location (when I don't need it).
That seems to have done the trick and my phone is no longer waking up nearly as much as it was before.
I know its not the best fix, and its just a band-aid, but its better than terrible battery life.
Hopefully someone has a better fix soon.
Thanks
Tried "Amplify"?
You could also try an Xposed Module called "Amplify" to limit your wakelocks. Look here "[Mod][Xposed] Amplify - Battery Extender - Control alarms, services, and wakelocks" for detailed information.
You will need root and Xposed Framework.
