Flashed the ROM from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1492461 which uses a 3.0 kernel. It runs smooth on my device. However, if I use my phone to listen to music, my battery drains very fast (about 40%/h) although I'm not doing anything else with the device. It also gets quite warm as if it had a high CPU load. However, the CPU load is low as you'd expect. The CPU clock is also OK, most of the time it runs at 245Mhz.
I then downloaded the very same RO with a 2.6 kernel. This time, battery was good when listening to music (1%/15m) and the device stays at a normal temperature so I assume there is a problem with the 3.0 kernel. Did anybody else also encounter this? What can I do to help debugging this problem?
Personally I'd suggest to move over to a similar but better/more stable ROM. Two that come to mind are mimicry and elitemod ICS, both are great and have far less bugs than the ROM you are using. But to each there own... I'd suggest contacting the developer, either within the thread or via pm and ask him why he implemented the 3.0 kernel when it is just far to buggy to use as a daily driver? I'm not hating on him just seems as it was put in his ROM and well... not supported much thereafter.

The 3.0 kernel isn't as stable as 2.6. If the battery drain issue is that bad then I would suggest moving onto a rom that still uses 2.6. Or if you feel lucky, go test out Andromadus JB which also has the 3.0 kernel. It might be better there. Considering you're testing this with a music app, why not try another application? Try changing the overclock settings. The unofficial CM9.1 and Andromadus are mostly in testing right now. You'd have to be willing to deal with these problems if you use those roms, and report the bugs to the authors.
I would suggest using Mimicry. It may not have all the new bells and whistles like 3.0 kernel, but at least it's stable.
For the record, the 2.6 kernel that Mimicry uses has a *ton* of 3.0 kernel patches merged into it.

Thanks for the replies! Forgot to mention that I first also blamed the audio player (Apollo) and changed to the app I used with the stock ROM but the battery drain was just as bad. So: sorry Apollo
My intention was to help the author of the ROM to track down that issue. But since I'm new to these forums I wasn't allow to reply to the original thread so I wanted to ask first if this is a known general issue of the 3.0 kernel. I'll PM the author and point him to the thread. If anybody knows a good thread on debugging battery drain issues or knows how to do this, please feel free to post links here, I'll also search further.

I have the same problem. 40%/h drainage, with either poweramp or apollo. I use CM9.1-vision-3.0-V4
Any news on this?

i think 3.x.43 is high battery drain,but 3.x.40 is better than 3.x.43

I sent the developer a PM offering help on this but didn't get a reply. I then reverted back to the 2.6 kernel which works just fine in terms of battery usage.
Still in CM9.1.0 Final

Hi,
I find battery usage a bit high on CM 7(RC1 and nighly).
Batter Montor widget or CurrentWidget shows values from 6-12 mAh.
With same radio i have 3-5 mA when using default HTC Sense ROM.
I did full wipe factory reset, dalvik, cache etc..
I need some tips how to diagnose the problem and eventually file a bug report.
I am using lates radio 32.54.00.32U_5.14.05.17, but the problem is the same with older one 32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27
I don't think the problem is with the radio itself, because it will be problematic with all ROMs (?)
You do realise that you can post in the CM7 thread. You also realise that RC and nightly builds arn't stable releases?

ofc i know that . I also know that if it is a bug, someone will have to report it. That's the goal of RC after all . May be you should read the whole post after all.
I seem to be having a similar experience with oxygen rom so would be interested in investigating what is causing this. Tried looking at all the usual stuff in QSI to weed out programs that may be causing this problem but nothing jumps out at me. Plus, i'm having the problem with completely clean rom without any apps installed.

same here. battery just runs dry very fast! (after playing a song on youtube, battery goes down for about 6%)
Try a different kernel. I recommend ManU kernel (the CFS-HAVS-AXI-version).
Same comments in spanish forum:
http://www.htcmania.com/showthread.php?t=303281&page=21#402
This guy is recommending aEVViollet (..35) kernell.
I'm thinking about changing into Oxygen.
Best regards
It is getting better, isn't it?
I searched the forum, but so far I haven't found anything conclusive.
My question is, which is the best kernel in terms of OC possibility and battery saving?
I like the Kernel from the DK froyo RoM but the fact that I cannot overclock past 528 MhZ bothers me.
Note: I am currently on the Nightly CM7 Kernel which seems to drain the battery rather quickly and for some reason does not see my wifi hotstop -_-
Any suggestions?
Im on CM7 nightly to (#152).
Battery is a BIG problem! Also When charge gets to 80% the green charge light goes on?
I think it kernel related!
I also want to overclock to 710 Mhz at the minimum!
Indeed the cm7 kernel has some big problems. So far i've found out that with it you cannot connect to wifi hotspots, cannot detect wifi hotspots, it drains the battery too fast, and usb debugging doesn't work...
Nevertheless, I have replaced it with the one in my sig, but am still opened for suggestions for a better kernel.
The default kernel from DK Custom Froyo v 4.5.1 was good, but it didn't allow OC.
Thats interesting guys, I've been looking for a ROM for my wildfire, but my main concern is BATTERY LIFE.
I thought CM7 was supposed to increase battery performance? Should I be looking somewhere else? I'm just after something a little more responsive, stable, and an increase in battery.

Results vary widely. I am getting impressive battery results with CM7 (~3 days, with moderate usage), and I am very happy with it. However, on an initial install of CM7, battery life is terrible, but, after 1-2 discharge charge cycles, it somehow automatically fixes (calibrates) itself.
ah, thats great news, I was hoping for longer battery life
CM7 does seem to be the most popular ROM and has the most development. I'm sure I can live without Sense, but it is tempting to try some of the tweaked Sense ROMs to keep things looking familiar. Any recommendations on that?

JokerDroid is the current favorite , seeing its popularity. But the only one I have extensively tested is WildPuzzle 2.2.1, and, I liked it a lot. So, you might want to consider that as well. (With a new kernel, not the included one)

No, it already includes the nFinity kernel.
Really appreciate all your help 3xeno!
So I'm now running JokerDroid, which has the nFinity 2.6.32 kernel. Would there be any benefit to dropping the nFinity 2.6.35 into it?
Also, with regards to overclocking, is there any way to control the overclocking that is built into the JokerDroid ROM?
I'm thinking of minimising the overclock, to try and get the best battery life.

I don't think so. Besides, I think 2.6.35 is Gingerbread only.
You can use an app called SetCPU to change the OC values, and add new profiles as well. The dev has uploaded it on XDA in a thread somewhere (Just search for it, you should find it without any issues)
ah, great. Yes I found the SetCPU app, but I wasn't sure if using that would conflict with the settings built into JokerDroid.
Guess I'll leave it set as it is for the moment, then mess with the settings in SetCPU if I feel I need to squeeze more out of it.
Thanks again!
cm7 works great! Have gone 3 days without a charge
Is there any Kernel with OC and WiFi working that doesn't cause copyBit errors?
I'm currently on nfinity-mc4 and it just messes up logcat completely.
So should I install nFinity 2.6.32 or this one with its useless filesystems? The upstream arco repository is gone and I'm not going to compile one from kernel.org for my primary phone
And can I use ClockworkMod 2.5.0.7 to install? My phone has S-ON and stock 2.2.1 rom (rooted, of course).
Just barely installed this ROM yesterday, and everything's great so far.
The only issue I'm having is that I also flashed the trickle charge kernel on top of the ROM, and now when I open my camera, all I see is a white screen. It will still technically take the picture, but I'm not able to see what I'm taking or focusing on. Not sure if it's a bug in the ROM itself, or specific to the kernel I flashed.
Any advice would be much appreciated. I've searched through Google and these forums, and have yet to find a solution that addresses my problem.
Thanks in advance!

Greetings, let me briefly explain my ROM related adventures.
I was sick and tired of the stock rom, it was slow and ugly.
I installed a Paranoid Android rom I found but it got stuck in a loop at boot and I was recomended to try another one that wasn't outdated.
I was recomended a PAC rom. It worked just fine, but it consumed a lot of RAM. Never having too much ram to spare the phone was extremely slow when accessing the store and other "heavy" actions.
Recently I installed the bionic cow rom I saw from the samsung galaxy w rom page but it reboots the phone spontaneously, I found in the thread of the rom that it has been discontinued and I should look for another one.
In sum, I need recomendations for a rom that is both light and good looking, any recomendations?
thanks.

about installing the kernel, just read the 1st page of each kernel thread :good:
Feedback
Hey,
I installed CM9 with the kernel like was suggested here. I decided to post some feedback and news about the rom.
So far it's been neat. I'm getting the performance and battery saving like I did when I had the stock rom, but I have the look and feel of the ICS.
here's a screenshot of the battery saving, it lasted the whole weekend... weekend partly spent discovering the wonder of Pudding Monsters, I've gotten more addicted to that game (in that weekend) more than I'm proud to admit.
In spite of that, the battery last for a good 2 days before crashing. This without any battery saving app or greater care.
(I haven't spent as much time online as I used to, that might've also helped a bit)
There is only one annoyance... two actually:
. (as expected) in the camera, the zoom doesn't work. (I was told cameras don't work that well in custom ROM's, as longs as it takes pictures as is I'm happy enough)
. There doesn't seem to be a usb support. Before, when I plugged the phone to the computer there was a popup allowing me to open some usb mode and allowing file transfer between external and internal sd cards. Now it simply turns on usb debugging.
While this works fine on Windows, the OSX doesn't recognize the device. Thus I cannot plug the android to my mac anymore.
Any ideas for the second part?
PS: Just noticed that my tablet also can't be seen on my mac. This means it's not a ROM problem. After searching the usb options I noticed the Samsung has a "mass storage" option which I think may solve my problems. But the same does not go for my tablet.
My tablet is a Sony S unrooted with stock ROM. It only allows usb connection through MTP or PTP modes, neither works with OSX for some reason.
as far as i tested, you can use liquidsmooth or the newest build pacman for sgw :good:
Hello,
I've got recently this phone and I kind of like it. The only reason was the qwerty keyboard.
The biggest problem I have with this phone is the sound. Every messenger app (skype, yahoo, viber etc) has the same problem. The receiving sound is slow and ununderstandable.
The current ROM installed CM 10.1 Kernel 3.1.10 android 4.2.2
I am a newbie in installing ROMs, but if I could I'd go straight to android 2.3.5
CM 10.1 is very laggy, with lots of problems (missing calls, GPS connectivity, maps, performance etc).
Anyone had this problem and solved it?
Thank you
P.s. I searched in the forum about this issue, but didn't have much luck.
Whos CM 10.1 are you using? Also CM 10.1 is no longer being updated,I suggest you use CM 10.2 by Bubor or a 4.3+ ROM
If you need more help please post back
The sound issue is with voice recording, any action with VoIP, dictaphone, voice dialing etc. will make sound playback distorted for some time. This issue exist in any ROM after stock ICS, so if this is very important for you, you'd better stay with stock. Here's the link: Stock UCLJ3.
If you wish a newer ROM, such as CM 10.1.3 or CM 11, there is workaround with VoIP sound called Tinyalsa stack, but it broke GSM call receiving sound. You can look here.
Also, I should say that CM 10.1.3 and CM 11 I linked have almost no issues beside this VoIP. GPS working great, no missing calls, no reboots, great performance and no battery draining. But I recommend to try and find what will suit you best.

Hello,
Yes I use skype calling a lot, I need this feature working. So you are suggesting me to install the android 4 stock version from samsung, but from what I red, there is an issue with the qwerty keyboard light. If this is true, it confirms my first idea to go with android 2.3.5
Thank you for your replies!
Samsung fixed the keyboard issue and a lot of other stuff in their 2nd release of stock ice. If you see those types of complaints, they are from the first revision.
I'm running stock and the only two issues I have is general UI laggieness (which is expected since its stock with bloat and not really optimized, also running on an older phone with no project butter). Along with messaging notifications failing to make any noise at random. I'll get a new text message and the screen will light up, but doesn't viberate or make a sound at random. Incoming calls still ring just fine though.
Other than those two issues (lag really isn't an issue for me), stock works just fine for me.

Yes, I recommend to install stock 4.0.4, it's the best way I know to have working GSM and Skype calling at the same time without needing to switch alsas stacks. j.asir here using new CM with tinyalsa fix and terminal shortcut - that's a bit inconvenient, but at this time there's no better way to go if you wish to have newest android and skype calls.
I newer tried 2.3.5 ROM on this phone, so I can't comment anything about it. If you try vanilla 2.3.5, please write about the results!

Hi @Makshow, have you considered using a 2.3.5 ROM? I have considered the possibility of doing so as I've heard that our device running GB has no issues at all... or so I've heard, but I honestly haven't had the time to test it. I was considering the possibility of using Inception (Back in black), but the download links are not available. If my Glide would work smooth and with no issues with GB I'd be glad to use it. If you decide to go for a GB ROM could you please provide me with some feedback? I would really appreciate it if you do so. I am not so cool with using ICS as stock is very battery & RAM consuming. And I was not so convinced using Litekernel or literom. Literom is really cool, but it has some issues and glitches that I found very disturbing. If you do go for GB please provide me with some feedback :highfive: Regards
I got this phone with new ROM already installed, so I won't try flashing 2.3.5 GB Android, I have no experience with this at all. Sorry. And I doubt that there weren't any issue with GB, one can search older posts in these forums and see that there were many bugs and bloat and troubles.
As for working download link for INC3PTION 2.3.5 ROM, there is one from Androide3 here. You can try it.

Hello @Androide3, thank you for your response. How long have you been using it? Have you had any issues? Is your battery life good? How about RAM usage?
BTW is there a specific method to install this ROM? I ask since I have never used GB. My phone came with ICS already
Thanks for details given in this thread.
Where can I find the stock android 4.0.4 second version?
An other quick question (I know this is an off topic question), is the samsunng galaxy s i9000 battery the same with the i927 batter?
Thank you

Hi, I hope this is what you're looking for: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1994902
I read in some other post, do not remember where lol, but I saw at least 3 different persons that were using the i9000 battery for the Glide, which has 1800mAh capacity I believe :good:

This custom rom Sh*t is very annoying. I can't get rid of this crappy cyanogenmod rom
Wasted almost a day reading pointless posts all over the internet and still nothing clear on how to go back to official samsung stock android.
I'm going to get this phone to the service!
We have a fix now

Listen may i know it got really annoying with the sound.. but we have a fix now...
its a third party app which you can use.. its very easy to use and one time setup only
just get any kitkat rom..
its stable and only stops working if the app gets killed but otherwise i have tested it extesively
try it out and i would suggest omnirom to you if u prefer simplicity.

Finally I did it!
Finally I did it!
Ok, it was very easy and I feel kind of stupid :laugh: but as for the first time I'm still proud.
The major problem I couldn't install the stock rom was because of twrp. I had a old version, 2.4 I believe.
I managed to over install cwm v 6.whatever which was compatible with i927 and re-tried to install the stock rom and IT WORKED!
The stock rom is great! the phone is much much much quicker than with cm10.2. All features work! skype calls, voice recording, map, camera rotation, etc. Will see if I will lose any missed call.
The problem, I'm facing now is the sd card and internal memory which were inverted during cm10.2, but I am sorting things out.
I'm a bit disappointed that I lost all the installed apps with cm10.2. and I can not re-install them again. I have only the option to update it which won't work. Any idea?
