[Q] Omega vs ARHD in fixing Media drain? - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I know many of you get a bit psychotic at even the mere mention of a comparison between roms (which is utterly silly because not just in roms, but with almost everything in life its very subjective, yet people still manage to have polls and rankings for everything). Anyway rant over.
Unlike some of you I am not a flashaholic and I really really really hate flashing roms. I am however forced to because I have the Media drain problem. I love stock, love touchwiz, so I am trying to chose between ARHD and Omega. I will not install both and see for myself because I have better things to do. I just want to know does one of them solve the media drain problem better than the other? Or do both solve it equally (or do both not solve it)?
Thanks

Mike1986 and Indie has better things to do as well but managed to give their work for free.
You won't know what's the best for your phone if I just answered one ROM is better than the other.

I can't imagine how I could have possibly scripted my initial question more clearly to avoid this useless reply. If you don't think one is better than the other at fixing the Media drain problem, then just say that. If you think its a crime against god and all of humanity to compare roms, then kindly don't answer at all.

Exaggeration. Troll. Actually, it's more of an application uninstall process first rather than ROM problems.

[Q] FASTEST Sense 3.0 ROM

Hey everyone,
I haven't seen any topics in this forum discussing this.
Which Sense 3.0 ROM is the most stable/FAST? I have tried Aurora which was fast to start with, but then became slow? I can't seem to find a bug-free (more or less) Sense 3.0 ROM which is smooth and stable.
If anyone can help me, I would appreciate it!

overVolting

Why would you want to OverVolt?
it might be a bit rhetorical but...
why are you asking that question then?
because if the reason is good, then i may want to overvolt. i dont have the knowledge currently to understand . so this might be rhetorical, but " why are you a Mod and an asshole to someone seeking knowledge?"
simply because your question was not properly formed, instead it was stating the obvious
it'd have made more sense asking "when should you overvolt?" or "what do you gain by overvolting?"
you ask the proper question you'll get the proper answer, you ask crappy question you'll get crappy answer, as simple as that
O.k. ill play. I know you know the answer too so please don't disappeared now that I'm being g compliant with your request.
What would I gain by overvolting? I'm currently running Faux 007 kernel. I understand that undervolting should theoretically increase battery life, although I have been unable to see any difference in my tests. Would overvolting improve anything? Couldn't I harm something by overvolting? Any knowledge about this subject would be most helpful. Thank you

Completely unnecessary dude. You knew what he was asking. That attitude is exactly whats wrong with this forum. To answer your question OP, overvolting is mostly used for when trying to overclock to a high level. At least thats the way it was explained in a kernel thread in the vibrant forum.
Thanks Bro.....I don't know too much and read this forum daily trying to learn. Then a mod makes me feel Like a douche . But again thanks for your answer

no i don't, not until he clarified what he was really after
that's why i did said it was rhetorical
as the original question pretty much stated the obvious Why would you want to OverVolt? as in Overvolting, that's a big no no, it's common sense, under normal circumstances or default of any electronic devices, that will cause harm.
however if you do ignore the fact of such action will eventually kill the device, but you still opt to go for it, then the only logical reason is to gain more power, which is usually associated with OverClocking, some OC steps can not be archived without adding more power, that's where the extra push of the voltage comes into play

so in a sense OverVolting is only required under specific circumstances which are directly disproportional to the health of your device, but will grand you crazy speed & power in exchange for a shortened life span
His question was pretty clear. Ive read your responses on other posts, and your an intelligent person. Not sure why you wanted to respond in the manner in which you did. Just own up that you were being a jerk and lets all move on.
I'm thankful for the information either way. The thing that shocks me the most is that guy is a mod!!! That's a joke.

Best rom for htc one x

What is The Best and Stable ROM for HTC One X?
Currently i am using Revolution HD...
Post your Opinions and suggestions.
Godbless
In my opinion there is not much difference right now. Most roms if not all are stable with no problems.
I have tried LeeDrOiD, CoreDroid, Villain rom and InsertCoin until now and all of them seem about the same to me in terms of speed and stability
We need custom kernel
ARHD is probably one of the best and most popular.
IMO, they're all around the same and pretty similar besides the fact that some are senseless.
I think we'll really see bigger differences when kernel sources come out and kernel devs start working their magic. Then the combination of kernel and ROM will be big and some may be much more battery efficient than others.
I'm intrigued at the new ROM touch x-treme which is coming out soon I believe, he's uploading.......and hes aiming at battery life. IMO, most important thing since Tegra 3 with all it's cores should already be able to handle UI and everything with ease and the focus on battery life is a biggie to me.
Anything above 5 hours screen usage time would be great, as the phone should barely drain with the companion core during standby.
threads like these usually get closed. you're supposed to read the features/changelogs and look at the pics for the theme. i want ICS blue, so i'm trying the 2 i see with that first.
yah iknow, i want the opinion and testimonies of others.
uhm lets say it like this "air is everywhere but we still need a fan to feel it better".
Read and Analyze first before saying anything.

I am aware that this thread can/may be removed but I think it's a very useful thread...
Cause although I highly appreciate each and every developer, as users, we shall have the chance to openly discuss our experiences ask for other users opinions. Cause reading only changelogs, and looking at the themes don't mean anything especially for someone like me, who is a newbie in Android... =)
And where else can we compare the ROMs, if not here?! Under their own threads? No i think that will be inappropriate...
Now, to the point...
I have my One X for 1 week and already tried first LeeDrOiD (de-sensed) and currently Android Revolution HD (w/sense)... But I could not decide on which one to use...
Both of them still drains lots of battery... I was sick of my iPhone4 because after 2 years of usage It needed to recharge by afternoon if I used it intensely during the day, but now I absolutley need to re-charge every 6 hours if I use it
A solution should be found to this, so I got very interested in your reply cause I was not aware of this ROM... my bad, was looking at only Leedroid & ARHD because of their popularity..
As of now, I can see that the rom is out there, although at the beginning of the topic it says uploading...
Did you have the chance to give it a try? I will appreciate if you can share your experience cause I got tired of changing my ROM and make all necessary installations & logins again and again...
(BTW, which you guys prefer... Sense or de-Sense?)

I use InsertCoin, which is smooth, fast and rock solid. It used to be a great ROM on the original Desire, which posed some problems to really test developers. InsertCoin met the test.
However, given the superb hardware on the One X, I would expect most of the present ROMs to be much the same... excellent.
Battery life is the holy grail, but as the screen is the main drain I can't imagine what can be done other than tinker with the brightness.

Battery life!

just an example. 5 minutes in google docs. That will help me and other users. Is that really hard to make and attach to big main thread?
Stock is always best. I personally think the extra features in custom roms are worth the slightly less battery life.

Wow... Unless something is lost in translation, it sounds like you really aren't interested in what XDA-Developers is all about. While there are numerous knowledgeable folks here who will happily help others and answer questions, it's not a place to drop in and have people serve up just what you want to know on demand. If the answer to your question were truly a "cut and dried" affair, then you'd likely see some information in the Wiki listing "the best ROM / kernel combination for battery life", and all of the conversations and ROM / kernel experiments and tweaks relating to that topic would be moot. But that's simply not the case. "Best" will differ across users and configurations, depending on usage patterns, installed apps, strength of 3G / 4G / Wi-Fi signals throughout the user's day, etc. Whether or not you, personally, care about the feature sets that custom ROMs offer, most of the folks here do, in fact, care -- and that's why many of us are here. That's why the developers put in countless hours researching, developing, testing and tweaking their ROMs, kernels and utilities.
Finding "the best" will be a different search for each user, based on unique circumstances and interests. That's why it's so great that there are, in fact, so many choices here. But making the best use of the site requires that you be willing to read the discussions, do some searching, and then perhaps ask questions in various discussion threads that will help you find out what you hope to learn. If you're not willing to do that, and if you dismiss 90% of the development effort here as being pointless, I'd suggest that you probably won't find what you're looking for here.
Battery life is what it is on the Galaxy Nexus. I havent really seen THAT big of a difference with all the ROM/Kernel combos I have tried. Its the phone itself. If you have that big of a problem with it, I suggest getting an extended battery or a new phone.
You're right. You should take your questions to those forums. If you think any policies are going to change just because you complain about them you are clearly not the type of member XDA is intended for.
Jesus dude stay stock and quit wasting everyone's time with useless threads.

Nobody tells you that you must try every ROM.
What's the difference of all the ROMs for Nexus:
- Another "ROM developer"
- Different features
- Different look
- Different experience
- Etc..
If you like to complain about the things then put even your thread to Q&A section!! -_-
I am using my modified STOCK Android ROM and battery life is great so stop complaining and use Android phone with stock Android OS or go to use iPhone with the same firmware which almost everyone iPhone user uses..
And also Battery life doesn't just depend of "Kernel", also many other things affects to battery life.
that was a difficult read. so i didn't
My suggestion go with a ROM that is pretty much stock AOSP, and not AOKP in your case. Stick with a ROM like KALO's that is just basically the AOSP Stock ROM with almost no mods, if you worried about battery life.
I mean we could tell you but we'd have to kill you and that's against the XDA rules.

First of all "castom" isn't even a word. It's CUSTOM. Second, it's not really a good idea for noobs to take it upon themselves to blast people like you just did. This is a DEVELOPMENT forum. Just because YOU think a ROM is useless doesn't make it so. And seriously, if a MOD thinks a thread needs to be closed, it's closed. Period. Again, just because YOU think it shouldn't be doesn't make it so. Finally, don't expect to be spoon fed here. It's not tolerated well, and "Tell me the best ROM" threads generally aren't either if I remember correctly. The best way to learn is to read read read. There is a wealth of info here. Most people figure out the best ROM for them by reading and testing.
Chill out and start educating yourself on what this forum is all about.

Wow he really went on a rant there. This place is full of great information. I say go buy a flip phone or be ready for some trial and error. Every phone is different, even if it is the same model every phone is different. What works for me may not work for you and vice versa. If you can spend a lot of time customizing then you can spend some time figuring out how to get better battery life.
3 to 4 hrs screen time for a phone that's got more CPU and ram than my first computer......not bad

Am I the only one disappointed with ATT KK update?

Im just venting at this point. But am I the only person disappointed with the ATT KK upgrade? Like most I waited a long time for the upgrade. I saw several intriguing ROMs but the bugs were enough to make me wait. I love this phone and I thought the upgrade would keep me married to it a little longer but that may not be the case. I havent noticed any thing better in KK. Most of the features I want are in the ROMs with the issues. It doesnt seem to play nice with some of my apps, the battery life is horrible, it lags and has even frozen up on me more in the last few days than the entire time before.
Hats off to all the people here. I have the utmost respect for the developers and the community as a whole. Im just venting and really feeling underwhelmed by the update.
There seems to be a lot of bugs with this update. Luckily i have none , in fact battery life is better in my case. It last me around 10 hrs but i watch like 4 hrs of video plus the games my son plays on it. It also hasnt froze on me once. Sorry to hear you having problems bro hopefully with this update development for this phone will pick up.

How did you install the update? Was it OTA or through a TOT file or restore method by esimon. I had horrible battery life but someone here told me to install it through the TOT method and I took my medicine and installed through the TOT method and the phone has played incredibly nice. I am losing less than 1% battery life on standby mode.
I see no need for this thread .....if you aren't happy with it then you should post in the bug thread.......we already have like 5 threads lol...

It wasnt about the bugs. My first sentence said I was venting. It was more about my disappointment or feeling let down with the upgrade.
Since it was my opinion I opted not to place it in a section that focused on more technical issues. It was more or less a rhetorical question, because I know the probability of me being the only disappointed person are slim.
Sorry for thinking the forum was to discuss things. I also appreciate you telling me that this thread was not needed.
So based on your opinion it can be closed.

Someone actually did a wonderful job in creating a flashable zip so I went that route. I was thinking I may have to do it the harder way but I will live with the bugs for now. Hopefully someone can make a fully functional ROM with other features based on the official upgrade from AT&T. If I had the know how I would do it.
I love it. Like the new look of apps and my home screen, battery life got better, tap to pay, and lock screen music controls. Only thing I can think of is they could've added more camera features and made it better.

It wasnt about the bugs. My first sentence said I was venting. It was more about my disappointment or feeling let down with the upgrade.
Since it was my opinion I opted not to place it in a section that focused on more technical issues. It was more or less a rhetorical question, because I know the probability of me being the only disappointed person are slim.
Sorry for thinking the forum was to discuss things. I also appreciate you telling me that this thread was not needed.
So based on your opinion it can be closed.

The TOT or kdz route with complete new wipe is highly recommended. There are so many system changes to KitKAt that a ckean flash is best.
My experience....

Im just venting at this point. But am I the only person disappointed with the ATT KK upgrade? Like most I waited a long time for the upgrade. I saw several intriguing ROMs but the bugs were enough to make me wait. I love this phone and I thought the upgrade would keep me married to it a little longer but that may not be the case. I havent noticed any thing better in KK. Most of the features I want are in the ROMs with the issues. It doesnt seem to play nice with some of my apps, the battery life is horrible, it lags and has even frozen up on me more in the last few days than the entire time before.
Hats off to all the people here. I have the utmost respect for the developers and the community as a whole. Im just venting and really feeling underwhelmed by the update.

If your having issues you might want to do a clean install with tot sounds like something didnt flash right for you. I have had unbelievable battery life every app i have works, and has not frozen once.
Back up everything with Titanium. Then go flash the TOT. Then root it. It works. The cwm flash might be easy, but the TOT method puts everything where it needs to be. And clears everything that shouldn't be there. No QQ til u TOT! Lol

This is just a thought, find a kitkat rom you are mostly happy with, CyanogenMod or one of the others. Personally, I find CM to work as well as stock and in many ways like it much more.
Also, 4.4.3, or whatever comes after 4.4.2, is just around the corner. There is more of a chance that 4.4.3 reaches us through Aosp ROMs than a update to LG/AT&Ts stock ROM. Who knows, maybe they will push 4.4.3 and what comes after too...
