Hi guys,
sorry for posting here but don't have enough posts to post in the right forum.
I have HTC One X Tegra 3 with Android Revolution HD 8.1 turned and installed the experimental performence mods in the aroma installer.
For the 2nd time in the last 2 weeks I went to sleep with almost full battery and woke up with no battery at all.
Today I looked at the battery usage and found it to be very wierd (see attached screenshotes).
The Android System is draining the battery for 5 hours then suddenly an instant drop to 0%.
Do you know why this happens and if I lose the experimental stuff will it solve it? It happened to me once with a previous version of this rom as well.
Thanks
hello and thanks to anyone reading this.
Ok so I've searched what feels like a million places and finally am comming here as a last resort. I will try to be detailed in everything i have tried up to this point so sorry if this gets a little long. I hope this clears up problems on this phone for anyone else with similar issues.
So the problem is that i am experiencing major lag on this phone. Let me specify. Mostly during games, which some are unplayable. Now that being said, I have not tried many games but here are some specific ones that have had some problems:
Nova 3 (which I am unsure of compatibility due to mixed reviews), The lag makes the game unplayable, online and offline
Modern Combat 4 (lag isnt too bad but still makes the game hard to play and not fun),
Shadowgun Deadzone had a wierd blur effect which made it unplayable --- fix : I had tried chainfire which fixed it but also disabling hardware overlays fixed this issue --- this is just some background info maybe it helps maybe it doesnt.
I have even noticed some lag on vector, a non graphicaly intense 2d game.
Some lag occurs even on the home screen as well (mostly when the device is first turned on and the home pages have not been loaded into ram yet, but this still shouldn't happen).
I know this phone has a weaker graphics chip and processor than the international version, but with the adreno 225 and the snapdragon s4, this device should be able to play these games and not lag on the home screen.
specifics: power saving mode is not turned on, I have tried to disable hardware overlays and force gpu but neither did any good (execpt shadowgun listed above). I have tried rooting and installing chainfire, this didnt fix the lag. I am on stock android 4.1.1 right now (rooted).
This phone is nearly new, about 2 months old.
So I guess my next step would be to overclock? does anyone think this would help? My point was that this phone stock should not have these problems and maybe I just got a bum phone.
Ok so thats the main problem, another, I have recently experienced battery drain. With all radios off, the phone not used (in my pocket, turned off) I am experiencing about 8-10 % drain per hour. - I dont know if this is normal but if any suggestions please let me know. While in use (browsing internet) I get about 40 -50 % drain per hour.
Thanks again to anyone for reading or providing help. Any suggestions are appriciated.
After I used my S3 for a few months, maybe 3 or 4, I also began to experience great lag and choppy performance. I was disliking the bad battery and the general slowness of the ROM so I flashed another ROM. I would suggest you flash an AOSP ROM such as the M snapshot of CM10.1 and see if that runs any smoother. I noticed a huge battery life increase and a much better performance. If you still have lag issues after an AOSP ROM, you most likely have a problem not related to the ROM. If you find an increase in performance with the AOSP ROM, but you prefer Touchwiz, look for a different custom ROM that is Touchwiz based. These ROMs will likely have a smoother performance and a better battery life than stock ROMs. Also, about your battery drain issue go to Settings > battery and see what is using a lot of the percentage.

Alright thanks for the help everyone. The solution is that Gameloft did not optimize this game for this phone. So change the buil.prop, and the game runs like butter. For anyone wondering, the solution is to edit build.prop and change the:
ro.product.model=Galaxy Nexus --- delete watever you have and type in "Galaxy Nexus"
ro.product.brand=google --- be sure this is lower case.
Thanks again. I hope someone finds this useful
(as for battery life, I dont know whats wrong)

Where is the build.prop located? And what else might might be effected by changing it?

Click to collapse
The build.prop is located at /system/build.prop
The only things that would might be affected (for this specific build.prop change) are other apps that read your device name / type, such as the play store
The play store would be affected in that it would show more apps possibly, and apps compatible with the nexus
I think it crosschecks your device name against other stuff too though, so dont quote me on that

beta 4 generally works fine but I have 2 issues:
-I constantly get a message that a number which I was calling is back accessible (normally I get only one, but that might be my provider's fault).
-I have an impression that battery drain is significantly higher than in beta 3, both with DSB disabled and enabled.
Am I the only one?
All in all, it might be just my imagination but I'm sure about is that this ROM is absolutely great.
Thanks, SuperHanss! (and, of course, PA team)

Also, SuperHanss, is there a chance that you will keep supporting Odin on Android L? I would be so happy if you would.
Sorry for the OT and thanks in advance!

I've never come across the first issue so it could well be provider related.
There are many varying factors when it comes to battery life. This might provide more information on what's causing it:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.uzumapps.wakelockdetector&hl=en_GB
Android L is a maybe. There's no way of knowing if/how well it will run until the source is released. I don't see why not though, the Z and ZL aren't exactly ageing devices.

Performance
Hi Guys and SuperHanss,
may sound like a dumb question but I'm pondering on buying a Samung Galaxy S4 or S5 because I really like their performance and "snappiness" (apps open right away when you click them).
At the moment I own a Sony Xperia ZL and generally I'm relatively content with it but it lacks the "snappiness" of the smartphones mentioned above. It needs noticeable 1-3 secs to open apps after clicking them.
It just feels as if the performance of the ZL is not good enough, but based on the specs I would say it's a good device.
So is the performance of the ParanoidAndroid Rom for the ZL better?
I just want to know before flashing, because otherwise I will sell my phone und buy a Samsung one.
Can anyone (maybe even someone with a Samsung S4 or S5) share his/her experiences with me?
With the ParanoidAndroid Rom installed on my Xperia ZL will it have a performance (and stability) similar or near to the Samsung S4 or S5?
I appreciate all answers
Cant use mobile data 3g
my device can use 3g in sometimes it can use 5-10secs then it off 5-10secs and on again , how to fix this tell me pls:'(
Cant use mobile data, too
After the last Paranoid OTA Update:
I also got the problem with mobile data.
From time to time it's there for 1 second or 2, then it just goes away.
I already tried setting the APN and Provider, but it didn't work at all...
Please help!
ZR
plz make this for Xperia Zr..........
still has support?
do we get updates? or nightlies? been trying this for 3 days no updates or nightlies in my updater
Can you do anything about battery drain when signal is poor? It is always higher, but on stock it was bearable and on PA it's sometimes like 20-30% per hour, even when I'm not doing anything.
Also (not fully PA related), refering to your post in Yuga thread I assume Lollipop AOSP build will be skipped and you will release only PA build (hopefully for ZL too!)?
Thanks
P.S. @marc2777
There are no nightlies for PA, releases are usually weekly but they're not assured. Latest update for legacy devices was a few weeks ago, because whole team is working on Lollipop
battery life, high temperature.
Someone is having problems with battery life using Paranoid Android 4.6 beta5 on Xperia ZL ??
I did a fresh install of the latest version and am having problems with battery and temperature, the phone gets very hot even when I'm doing basic things like web browsing and using whatsapp.
I searched the PA topic for a similar case but not found anything, anyone have any idea what it might be?
when I talk of bad battery life, say something around 8 hours with 2 hours screen on with the auto brightness, 3G (lte off), GPS off, and regular use (email, whatsapp, web browsing, facebook)
Battery drain and mobile data issue
As I mentioned before I don't get any stable signal on mobile data.
From my experience this might connected to the battery drain issue. As I disabled mobile data and used WIFI instead (because let's be honest -- unstable mobile data is the worst thing ever), my battery drain was decreased by magnitudes.
Furthermore my ZL didn't get hot anymore.
We are talking about charging my smartphone twice a day before and charging it every two days after.

Guys, I am using m11 snapshot version and I sense that the battery is draining very fast and the tab is heating up too . For example , I played 30min of hay day and lost 35 % of my battery and it was very hot while I played . Playing on my xperia ultra z for 1 hour and 30 minutes, lost only 27 % of my battery and it does not heat up like the tab . Anyone have these problems , is this normal? Some kernel to recommend I use , I'm using the stock cm11 kernel .
Best regards.

Try the latest nightly. I have made big changes to the interactive governor that reduce the power utilization.

Hi,
I've encounterd some issues when copying files from my PC (Windows 7) to the SD card inserted in the tab, both cnnected by the USB data cable.
The copy sometimes stops with an error message : the device is no more connected. In fact, it is still, and the tab begins to be slow. The only way back is to disconnect and reboot the tab.
As I had formatted the SD with the stock ROM, I re-formated it with CM : the issue is still present.
NB : the usb cable data is almost new (from September 14) and the SD card never bugged before (with stock ROM I mean).
Thanks
Since Nightly of 21 I get a Camera Crash. The following messages will be displayed, otherwise only "Can not connect to camera". The Annex also provides the log.

I have it as a system app. After I clear cache and wipe data and uninstall all updates and aplly you recommended version it crashes......But thank you anyway. It seems to me that youtube app can not be a system app, it can not be updated, you have to install it in clean way from the begining...

There have been a lot of camera changes lately. Can you ("you" being those reporting camera problems) remind me next weekend if it is still a problem? Nothing has changed in the device related to the camera and, given that I don't have a lot of time this week, I would like to make sure that those changes have stabilized before I try to see if we have a device specific problem that is somehow being triggered as a result of those change (aka, nothing has changed in our device so either the upstream changes are broken or they triggered a problem that was latent in our device support).

There was no way, as last night it still heats up a lot and the battery dies very fast , which does not happen in the damn stock rom.
I also get camera crashes on the October 26th and October 27th nightly. However, I was able to get an application called HD camera ultra to function with the back camera on the 27th build. So, at least third party camera apps can access the camera hardware as of 20141127. I also note accelerated battery consumption versus stock rom. I've dropped my maximum CPU speed to 1700 and forced minimum to 250. Hopefully I can squeeze a little more juice out of the battery. Overall, I still think this is a much better ROM than stock.

What battery life are you getting under what usage?
What was your min CPU spped before forcing it to 250?

Hi, Chris,
I was at 400/1900. I never timed the runtime. It just seemed to need to go on the charger about twice as fast as stock. So, maybe 5 or 6 hours of occasional use in the day, versus 10-11 on stock. General e-mail, static webpage reading, Flipboard and Play News reading, etc. No video or YouTubing.
I did do a Hangouts videochat, yesterday. Front facing camera, audio and microphone worked fine. I tried to switch to rear and it crashed. So, that's cool. I use front camera more than back. I typically take photos with my phone, not the tablet.
What's the optimal scheduler? Interactive?
Thanks for your work on this ROM. Even though the SM-T520 has blazing hardware, I was a little envious of my GF with my old Galaxy Tab 10.1, since it ran CM11 just fine. Now I have the best of both worlds.

Hello crpalmer,
the error is still present. The current nightly of 28 does not change this. A complete Fullwipe and new reinstall did not help. Also, third-party apps can find no connection to the camera.
Greetings and thanks for your great work!

I don't think the rom is your problem.
I was on the last couple of RR builds and my phone didin't even switch off at 10 %
Now I am again on blisppop and this one is at 18% at the moment and all works.
Both are stable as a daily driver.
They are not flawless but usable without to much problems that interfere with daily routine

If it's switching off at 50% I think it could be battery related as nobody is reporting this problem.
The torch is indeed a bug but a minor one but like I said they are not flawless but usable without to much problems that interfere with daily routine.
I think battery life is all the same on RR and blisppop
I get around according GSam 33h 46m battery life and screen on 2h 48m on blisspop measured for a week
update . . . .
plz tell me what is the best rom right now In terms of battery charge now im using blisspop but Battery charge decreases quickly so if im install " monster kernel " it will be better ? or tell me name of another rom ?
