hey guys
Yesterday I switched from the HTC Stock rom to the nightly cyanogenmod 7, latest version as of today.
Now my question:
i have the feeling that the phone is a bit slow compared to the htc stock rom (of course I have activated USB Debugging). Now my question is if it is recommended to flash another kernel.
I experience the performance loss for example on the homescreen and in the app drawer, it just doesnt feel that smooth any more... which is strange because the cyanogen mod uses the adwlauncher and I had the same launcher on the stock rom, running very smoothly.
Now is it just my immagination or am I not the only one experiencing that "problem".
I appreciate any comments
greetings from switzerland
I'm on build 12 now and find it very fast and stable. I am using adw launcher without any lag. Did you do a complete wipe before the upgrade?
As for the kernel, these are currently no kernels that work for cm7, how ever the stock kernel is very good and will overclock to 1.5ghz if you want it to.

yes I did a full wipe of the data and the cache..
It's just strange because everything was running so smooth with the stock rom and adwlauncher or launcher Pro. I even flashed the stable versoin of cm... same thing there...

No I'm not using any of this stuff... I tried to sort out everything that may cause the performance drop but with no results..
What linpack and quadrant scores are you getting after a reboot? You should really run each one 3 times and take an average, this will let you know how slow it is (not a 100% test but it'll help)
Also might be worth having a look at "Power Tutor", it'll be able to tell you which programs are using the cpu the most, might find one that is hogging it for some reason.

How exactely do I get those scores?
//EDIT: Ok results: about 40 - 41 Mflops, Time ~2s, Norm Res 5.68, Precision 2.22etc
Have you tried downloading spare parts off the market and setting screen animations to fast, might be them that make it look like its running slower. Be Dr this I an running out off ideas, your score on Linpack is about right for a stock kernel, yet could try running setCPU and have the CPU running a little faster, I have mine running at 1.2ghz for day to day stuff.

If you are using apache14's kernel and use smartass that is your problem.If it's stock CM kernel I don't know...Try setting the governor to performance in setcpu and re-run the benchmarks.Telling us your kernel and CPU clock would help!

I have the stock kernel (as far as I know.. at least I didnt flash a new one... I just flashed the cyanogen mod) as far as the CPU goes: I dont use setcpu... how's the battery performance when u run it on 1.2 ghz?

I can usually get to the end of the day and still have about 30% left, but I an a heavy user and running the WiFi all evening, do a good 3-4 hours of browsing each day as well as other stuff.
This is not a problem for me as I charge every night. You should give it a go, if its no good return it to normal.

And you do experience a performance boost when overclocking it to 1,2 ghz?
Yes mate, I have a few profiles setup, when charging I have it set to 1.5ghz on performance, normal running is 1.2ghz on interactive and screen off set to 245mhz powersave. The phone is very fast, wakes up well and isn't doing to bad with the battery. The battery life will get better as the development of the Rom continues.

I just flashed the latest nightly build of 15 and it is just as fast as stock rom. Did not notice any slowness.
Hey everyone ,from when I rooted my device my battery is draining very quick.before I rooted I used to charge it once a day.

What ROM are you using now?
Are you using a Live Wallpaper?
Also mention something you've done after which the battery drained faster... (something done after rooting)...
I don't know and im not using a live wallpaper.but when I rooted the first app I installed was set CPU and its on highest frequency,also when u finished rooting I remember that I entered cmw and flashed an update.zip which came by itself.could you please give me a battery saving ram?

I think its definitely setCPU. When i installed it my cpu freqquencies would change every second between min and max frequency(no matter what governor i used). The result:excessive battery drain
I think its because stock kernel doesnt support overclocking(or even underclocking)...May be the devs could explain it
After i did a factory reset, battery is ok now for me. No battery drain when kept idle for a night:good:
P.S. Also before reset my HW decoding(in video playback) wasn't working(now its ok)....any1 experienced this too?
The problem isn't setcpu the problem is that he set it to 2ghz

I think it is the setCPU too, try to use no-frills, it is a tad better in my opinion, but stock kernel doesn't like non-stock settings that is for sure.
I upgraded to rc2.1 cz they told me that the battery drain will decrease, but its still the same

how often do you use your phone and what operations do you do with it... are you always on full brightness? is your gps always on? are you always on wifi or bluetooth? some things to consider that may take chunks of battery life..
Always on wifi

you need to reset the battery by the sounds of it, empty your battery tonight, run some games or put youtube on or something....there used to be an app on the market that would run gps\wifi\brightness all max etc and empty your battery for you....not sure if it's still there.....but when you do root you can clear battery stats which will make your life easier....but yea empty it, charge it while it's off and HOPFULLY everything will be fine for you also as a sidenote, i charge my phone with wifi on and internet radio playing in the night and charges to 100% fine
When should I clear the battery stats?
Sent from my HTC One V using xda premium
it's known to reset the "capacity" of battery, but personally i don't believe it.
Use program BetterBatteryStats and see what's keeping your mobile phone awake, and also install CPU Spy to see on what frequency is your phone mainly working.

Not true, those programs are used only for troubleshooting, and are mostly deleted afterwards.
They helped me countless of times, so why wouldn't he give a shot?

head to This thread....it may help u...
so i did a calibration.
Let it uncharge until it turned off - then boot recovery and wiped battery stats. Then reload and charged it full , but my battery is still going down by 30% by night (wifi off and nothing done)
But i figured out, that my mobile-standby used about 28% when the screen just used 44%. This is since i flashed the new ruu and updated the radio. Maby the radio is ****?!
No one have the same problem? I cant charge my battery the day before, because its now at 55% after a night. That cant be normal. So how could i bricket my battery?

All bugs which you find in cm 10 would be there in miui also along with a few more bugs.
Now, the battery issue has been resolved i think.
use cm9 for now as it is almost complete....miui is a battery strainer, cause it needs resources to function properly, i was using cm10 but i needed the camera si i am using cm9 rc3

Whenever this happens to me I just start from scratch. Back up any of the stuff I really want to keep (pictures, and themes usually) and then do a factory reset/full wipe, battery stats and cache etc. I then reinstall the rom, or install a different one.
This has always fixed it for me, infact it has fixed most problems for me. Overheating and lag as well as battery drain!
i did many times...is this happaning bacause of custom kernel??should i install stock kernel??

Try the program better battery stats from the playstore and find out what is draining your phone.
Maybe some bad app

Task manager is what you need. I know it was discussed many times and classified as redundant, but I had same issue like you. Fully charged battery was dropping faster than petrol from my bmw 540i. Within 4 hours down to 54%. Now, installed Clean Master from play store,and using built in task killer and can tell you its a HUGE improvement. With this app now battery show 82% in same period with same settings. Try it out and you'll see...

Hi guys,
I've had a less than impressive battery life after I had Cyanagenmod installed on my hox. I know it's the norm for the screen to be the highest consider of the battery. However as you see in the screenshot it's the OS. Is there something I should do?
I can lose half my battery life consumed in an hour of moderate use.
Help would be appreciated, thanks

Well in general aosp Roms use more juice than sense roms.. have you tried those? Before you do that though, have you checked what drains your battery with an app? You can also use greenify to hibernate apps running in the background
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
Thanks for your reply. I'll try greenify, what app do you recommend to check which apps use more juice?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
Well I'm not sure if I can give any recommendation, but I use Gsam battery monitor (Something along those lines..)
There are alot of apps on the play store that do the same so just get one that suits your needs
I would advise against any app that says to improve battery life.
They scan for apps then shut them down, if that process didn't finished their task the os starts them up again only to be closed.
They do more harm than good.
I would suggest using a custom kernel and underclock/undervolt.
Lower screen auto brightness amounts.

Yes undervolting is also a good idea
