Dear Dev ( @Info4Geek, @Gava97 and @Garcia98), I have many problem with the last build (W27):
- The system.UI go in loop crash also the reboot the problem persist :crying:
- Occasionally the screen not wake up from standy-by (I think that happens when the battery level drops under 20%), after more attemps to wake the phone...I have found that if I connect to USB the phone return to work normally.
This is the joke of ROM of the last two day when the screen not wake up:
- View attachment 2964671
- View attachment 2964672 (in this moment the touch work bad....too low reactive)
- View attachment 2964684
- View attachment 2964674
Thanks for your time and work!!!! :highfive:

The same happens to me.
However, which governor and i/o is suggested to use to reduce the battery drain?

Hi, for me the best governor to reduce battery drain are SmartAssV2 (regular scalining) and the LionEarth (Now I use it - It's similar to Interactive but It scale to low frequency too fast).
For the I/O.... I use ROW (It's more linear to control write and read); more people suggested the SIOPLUS (an evolution of the original SIO) but It's not avaliable in this CM11 kernel (If you would test it, you can try the Garcia98 kernel...know as "Bravekernel")

Using Album/Camera reboots the phone
Hey there ,
Using The Album App makes the phone reboot [Weekly 27] , Any Solutions ?

It's good but the system lost the reactivity....I have try more governor and the LionHeart (with ROW) it's the best compromised between battery life and reactivity.
With the conservative governor (and if you set max frequency to 800Mhz) you can increase the normal battery life up to 4/6h. (if you use the phone a lot it is the best governor because the display drain battery in short time)
From my experience...the SmartAssV2 it's very good but create lags of reactivity in certain case because the frequency don't scale to high frequency more fast (it's evident when load callUI in inbound call).

Same problem here, but the problem is not occasional, just when battery goes under 20%, and i have to charge the phone.
Wallpaper also gets removed.
First install, fully wiped.
Thanks.
EDIT: How to manage CPU Governor \ Scheduler?

GPS not working
Guys thanks for developing this Cynogenmod11 .. stupid xperia wont even think about lower end phones like Xperia U
GPS is not working please look into it, I have attached some screen shots of logcat and gps test app ...
P.S sometimes gps work fine ( I get all the signal and lock in few seconds.. when I get that (to check hardware faults) I restart the device and it wont even get a signal )

google music
there is the possibility that it also solves the problem of google music?

Lockscreen
Is it possible to reset the lockscreen apps to default (with telefon, contacts,sms etc) ???

Thank you very much I have tested cm11 weekly 27 and stable 4 and I find them really smooth although it reboots sometimes in general I consider it as an official rom!!

Weekly 28 is working well, no more battery under 20% problems.
By the way, sometimes the back button is failing, someone with the same problem?
And again, is there a menu to change CPU Governor \ Scheduler? Battery gets down fast, and i have to put "energy save" every restart.

wifi direct?
How do you enable or run the wifi direct? Because of the wifi in the settings where it should be there.

[weekly 28]cLock crashed and call
Hi guys., I've updated to weekly 28 and it's great but I've got some issues :
-cLock crashed everytime I try to modify an alarm; it doesn't allow me to turn off or delete any alarms.
-Everytime I try to call someone I've got a black screen and I can't hear anything.
Should I try a clean install?
Thanks anyway

For the problem of the calls you have to help a developer (I not be a dev). If you need the alarms and the alarm not used cLock, but try to use the stock clock app.

How can I help the devs? Should I provide a log? ^^
About alarms I installed a new app, "Timely", and disabled cLock app

hi all,
my first android app ever ....
but maybe it helps you undervolting.
it has 3 textboxes for Vsel and an apply button
update:
now it has 6 textboxes 3xVsel 3xMhz
update2:
now it includes and load overclock.ko (you can uninstall milestone overclock)
update3:
autoapply at boot works now! but use with care!!!
update4:
-set values @ boot
-set to lowest mhz if screen off ...
update5:
-bugfix
update6:
-added the option to run stabilitytest (it ask to install if it's not installed) while scaling_max_freq is fixed to i.e. vsel1,vsel2 or vsel3
update7:
when i set my defy to 300mhz while screen is off then when a phonecall is incoming the defy is so slow that it takes ages for the screen to go on....
sometime it takes 2-3 ring befor i can answer the call
so setvsel set it to maximum speed on phoneringing befor the screen is on!!
if you have installed v6 you have to uninstall it first (its because it was a debugversion the new one is signed)
get it un market ! QR is attached
market://details?id=com.SetVsel.Inteks.org
big thx the milestone-overclock project that make this all possible !!!!!
http://code.google.com/p/milestone-overclock/
have fun
inteks
Thanks but can it's possible to include frequency ?
Like if i would like to have 1Ghz or 1.2Ghz 800Mhz on standard mode, 250Mhz when not use like this post :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10195181&postcount=50
Its a good idea if battery charge level is include like Set CPU .
Thanks

Great work
Sent from my MB525 using XDA App
updated.
it includes overclock.ko modul so you could uninstall milestoneoverclock. BUT till now no apply @ boot , sorry ......
Be patient
let me get this straight.pressing apply,leaving the numbers as is and tick the boot option, will make my phone underclock and save my battery? cos thats what i just did now.and i dont need to fiddle with setcpu or milestone...? i hope im right.thanks!
ok i saw the boot info just now. but apart from that i need to start this after boot,im all set?

yepp
but its beta (i should note that in the first post...) so setcpu or adb is usefull to check the result
danke schön!
Good work!
The app does work on my defy to overlock & change vsels once I press "apply".
But it seems doesn't auto apply after rebooting.
(I have checked the "Apply @ Boot" box...)
After I reboot and manually launch SetVsel.apk, the frequency & vsels value in the 6 boxes are exactly the same with what I set previously.
However, the "Apply @ Boot" was not checked, and the values below shows those settings are not applied.
Is it only me? Or should I also use some other apps in conjuction with SetVsel?
Thanks for any helps.
---------------------------------
Edit: Sorry, I didn't notice inteks said "till now no apply @ boot"...
I think the apply on boot checkbox is just a place holder (does nothing for the time being)
updated....
have fun
Thanks inteks
Can u help us in example values?
also include in first post which are stable.
Can you make some presets in app so we can select?
for example performance, battery save, etc?
my values are ->
300/30
700/46
1100/58
but every cpu is diffrent.....
tnx for the answer.
I cant get lower than 300mhz.
I set 250 but SystemPanel app shows me 300mhz as the minimum value.
my values are:
300/28
600/38
900/46
No issues with these values so far. Cant get lower then 300 as well Setcpu shows that it runs at 600 insteadt of 250.

When rebooted, can the program autorun hidden? Actually show a black screen 1 or 2 seconds.
Thanks
nice app, thank you

I'm pretty sure lower is possible, but you need to change another file to display this - it's described at the overclock module site I think.
I can do 300/26 but only at 250MHz vsel 22 is stable.
Other values are:
600/32 and 800/44 or 1000/56.

[Q] setcpu flykernel what´s the best configuration

hello everybody.
i would like to know what´s the best configuration for the hero to have a better battery perfomance with flykernel.
example:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Thanks
1200mhz? Is that a hero?
Its not hero , the resolution is to high.
what the.... flykernel runs on other systems? cool - I guess it makes sense that he builds it for other systems but I just never thought about that happening.
I think the screen is just a screen. Kernel from one device won't run on another.

oh, so he grabbed a setcpu screenshot for example's sake?
ok, original poster, are you using a hero? LoL
I'm pretty sure of this
The screenshot is from another device / kernel, he was just using it as an example.
As for best configuration, there isn't one I am afraid. It is dependant on so many differing factors:-
- what apps update in the background and how often?
- how often you use the screen?
- what brightness do you have your screen on?
- how good is your signal?
- how many widgets do you have running?
- how well written the apps you use are (sky news for instance used to be a massive battery drain)
- how efficient your battery is (old batteries drain quicker)
that it is impossible to say. I personally don't use any profiles at all, I run at 19MHz min / 748MHz max and use the smartass governor, but I am so often around my charger (at home or at work) that I don't know what the battery life is like. It lasts more than 24 hours and linpack over 5.2 MFLOPS, which is enough for me.
yea - most common sense way to improve battery life is this:
reduce screen brightness manually as much as you can live with
slow down top speed of cpu as much as you can live with. in most roms I can live with something in the 450 mHz range or whatever that kernel provides as a lowish top end speed.
smartass is good for battery life - nice low bottom speed, very quick to speed up if necessary. but if you can live with some occasional slowdowns on unlock (the only side effect I get from the following setup) just use a low conservative-governor speed with screen off profile and higher but still low as you can live with speed with screen on using the ondemand governor.
oh, and turn off wifi when not using it, turn off bluetooth when not using it, make sure no apps request gps when not using it or turn it off too if you're paranoid (but gps only runs when an app asks it to run), and if you really want great battery life when screen is off then t urn off background updates except when you really want to update your data.
The image is only example
...and if you really want great battery life when screen is off then t urn off background updates except when you really want to update your data...

Can you do that automatically ?

there are apps you can install that do that automatically for you, but of course then you have another service running in the background all the time managing this stuff. I would imagine it's worth a try, but I personally need background updates enabled so my wife can ping me whenever she wants.
Let me just say this.
Look in the FlyKernel topic. He has a darn huge part there on what the best speed is.
And to make it lazy for ya.
172/614 smartass, and totally no profiles.
But it is more what you like.
If you want to go like I want to have a P4 and go to the 2.2 Ghz and try to run XP on it. Have fun
But in short, First read out a whole post of a kernel before making a new topic. next time post it inside the topic of the kernel. Less clutter on the board.
EDIT: I personally dont use setCPU because its another app running for something you can just configure with flykernel package itself. Same for all kernels. Just have to find out how . And now its time to go to bed, that was something I was planning to do 4.5 hours ago
12a is a great kernel..
I find 19/576 (interactive when screen on, conservative when off) works perfectly on froydvillain 1.7.2, but I'm using the included app cpu speed, not setcpu.
I don't have any problems with lag during games or anything else, so why overclock more if not needed? I have gone up to 730 though I didn't find performance was that much better, so I leave it at 576 unless otherwise needed.

hi, could I use S2E with data2ext in this rom?
Excuse me guys, what does it mean this rom is an update? should I flash cm7.1 first and the this rom with wipe cache?
Forgot to wipe cache after flashing
touch screen not responding on first boot
removed battery restarted, everything working perfectly
rom is indeed extremely smooth!
the default adw launcher handles the live wallpaper like a static wallpaper
So far so good. I noticed some FC's when trying to make some custom shortcuts with ADW. But since I had already paid for it, I just un-installed and re-installed and it's working fine.
I also noticed most of the notifications and ringtones were stripped out. No big deal for me since I usually remove all ringtones, notifications and alarms via ADB since I keep them on my SD card.
There weren't very many wallpapers either. There were placeholders for them when choosing, but only a couple showed up. But again, I usually keep a folder on my SD card with my wallpapers.
I'm also intrigued. What CPU tweaks have you made? Did you increase the CPU scaling frequency?
Been running this all day.no problems thus far
Sent from my Nexus One
INCREDIBLE WORK! IT REALLY IS THANK YOU!
however a few questions to decide if i keep this or go back to CM7.1RC1.
1. I see there are a few new governors I am not familiar with. "SavagedZen" and "InteractiveX". Could we please get an explanation of these and how the perform in comparison to the original Interactive governor. Which one has the BEST battery life with great performance?
2. I am really dissappointed to be left with that one annoying ringtone. How can I get them back? (this may seem silly but its actually quite important to me)
once again thank you very much and I would love to get these questions answered.
I wound up having to go back to a MIUI nandroid. I installed swype, rebooted, and then I lost the home screen, lol. All i had was a black screen after unlocking. I'm not sure what happened.
Anyone else noticing a wakeup lag?
Really happy with this - great work.
Only thing for me is that my bluetooth audio becomes a bit choppy when the screen is off - any ideas anyone on that?
EDIT: oh and swype installed without issue on mine
I'm intrigued by this:
System UI rendering hardware accelation
What exactly is this? Does the system now use hardware acceleration from the GPU?

[Hint/Tip]Best way to save battery

Disclaimer; This does not damage your phone at all or fry/mess up your cpu. On the contrary, it helps it by not running at full capacity all the time resulting in less stress and increased battery.​
All credits goes to SuperAce609. I only share with you because this helps a lot. Original Thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1447938
This method works universally for any Android phone you're using. But you'll need ROOT for Set CPU.
IMPORTANT: The newer versions of SetCPU might prevent your phone from entering deep sleep. Download version 2.24 from the following link which is the one with no problems and completely works 100%.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505419
The Ace sucks in battery life. We all know that. And on 3G? Don't even mention it. But here's a fix, ever tried Under clocking instead of Over clocking?
Someone brought it up on a thread a couple of days ago and I have to spread the word, that works wonders. Got my Ace running on 245 min and 806 max and a different Screen Off profile. And now from the morning till 6PM in the afternoon, its just 61% AND recorded a 7 minute video/took pictures.
Battery was the only issue I had with my Ace. But now that its fixed, I love it
When screen is on:
MAX 806
MIN 245
Ondemand governor (This governor bumps up to max when needed but spends most time on the min freq. Best battery saver.)
When screen is off:
MAX 320
MIN 122
This way, you have a beast quick phone when you're using it, and the best battery saver when you're not!
This is what CPU spy should look like when you're done:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
NOTE: Turn off Autosync from the settings. It's only used to sync your gmail and contacts and such. You can manually sync when you add a new contact and since I don't use gmail, I refresh manually whenever I do. 3G is the worst battery killer so this will help a lot.
SetCPU: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505419
Specific instructions for those that can't get it to work!:
On SetCPU:
Click Add profile
Where it says Profile, select it and tap "Screen Off"
Set the frequencies you want in use while screen is off (If you want just one frecuency, put both sliders on the same number)
Set priority (in case you have other profiles, otherwise don't bother)
Select governor (Won't really matter since cpu is gonna be running at 1 frecuency)
Tap save
Go back to Profiles tab at the top, then tap Enable at the top left to make the profiles work.
For a list of most governors detailed; check out this thread! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1242323
To check if its all working, install CPU spy from the market:

Battery Calibration
1. Turn your phone off
2. Leave charging over night
3. Turn it on
4. Leave it charging for half an hour
5. Download this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nema.batterycalibration&feature=search_result
6. Open it and press calibrate battery
7. Discharge your phone down to 0% during the day
8. Charge back up to 100% NON-STOP.
This is to make sure you're using your battery at 100%. Only do this after you flash a new rom.
The worst battery killer is 3G itself. No matter how much you try to optimize battery and underclock, if you have 3G on, you're gonna have a bad time. MAKE SURE Autosync is disabled.
Thanks to QNBT for the AutoSync off and new profile settings hint!

After Testing around with the unofficial build I can whole-heartedly say... good work devs!
We have a working build of CM 11 Running on a VS985
Everything seems to be working, although the dpi / resolution bug that makes the device run/look more like a tablet than a phone (See photos)
Need Proof??

DPI can easily be changed via app or build.prop edit. Default for this build is 480. Try 540.
The screen doesn't come on after making a call or simply pulling the phone away from my face. Is anyone else experiencing this?
Hows the battrry life any noticeble difference?
OK so I have an app that wont hide the navigation bar in full screen so how do I disable it for that app? I can't find it in settings

I'm getting a significant amount of battery drain for "Phone idle". Not too bad (~6%), but definitely more than stock.
front camera issue
When ever using the front camera it has a permanent purple glow on the top and bottom. Never had issue on stock rom.
Only occurs in low light, must be how it processes in low light
Is it just me or is the auto brightness really low
twrp changed to cwm
so last night i flashed cyanogenmod 11 for my vs985 with twrp and i rebooted into recovery this morning and noticed that it switched to cwm.
is this normal?
is there a way to switch back to twrp?
thanks
@Berzerker7: Having a issue with my Phone app. While placing a call the screen goes black and the dial pad keys stop functioning (can't touch any keys). When I input a pair or headphones the screen comes back on but, still the screens touch isn't functional until the call ends. Any and all help would be appreciated! Thanks! I have a LogCat if you don't mind I can send it via PM..
Hangouts issue
Hey!
So, video chat on Hangouts doesn't work 100%. Video works fine both ways, and I can hear the other person, but my mic doesn't seem to work/other person can't hear me.
Hope this gets fixed soon!
Oh! And whenever an app asked for root, I'm unable to hit the Approve button.
Please help! Lost root!
I've lost root with CM11 installed and I have absolutely no idea how. I installed the Superuser app by Cyanogen from the play store, and when I open it it says "The Superuser binary (su) must be updated.": I click recovery install and i get an error.
Only thing I've noticed is my back button doesn't work consistently. Seems pretty solid so far
Running since yesterday morning. Have had one kernel crash a few random screen freezes and force close. And yes the proximity censor makes phone calls go black until person on call hangs up about 2-3 seconds later screen becomes available again.
Only issues so far still loving this rom.

Phew! Thought I had a special case!
Yea, that's my only issue from what I've use so far that's discouraging.. Other than that Roms great to me!
Have you tried calling your Voicemail and plugging a headset into the phone to see if the screens touch was functional?

Set all animation scales to 0.3x under developer options. This will fix the proximity bug when in a call.

Didn't work for me but, maybe it'll work for you?!?
I was just looking through the cm code review. It looks like a bunch of commits have been abandoned for our device. Does anyone think well actually see cm 13 nightlies in the future? The fact that they abandoned bump worries me.
I expect they are really concentrating on the shiney new Lollipop. Hope that goes well.
So for now I installed Xposed and (Disable Proximity Sensor) module for now and its better than before.. Just have to deal with screen being contently on now while on a call.. But, Touch Screen works also while making a call..
