I still did not try imilka's CM9 (internet problem) so take my words with a grain of salt but how is your battery when you do not use wifi?

From my personal experience, I got an amazing battery life when I was at home having wifi on and connected all the time, but when out and about with mobile data the battery got hit more than it's supposed to be, the difference was more than an hour and a half in screen on time (seeing most of my screen on time is online here or browser)

Seems like still we need better radios for optimum performance

True words man! Exactly my opinion! But what shall the devs do?
They use what they can get. Probably it´s the new radio, that eats too much battery. Possibly an older radio would be better if it was working with LP5 kernel ect. Just a thought. Which "KNOWN" radio could we use instead?
LC1/2 modem from the GB releases? Can we use/try these?

Matius i know that wifi is a battery saver but wifi is always on even after leaving the house and using data.Its obvious we need better radios.In my device i have better battery with cm9 and very bad with stunner 4.3

Yes you can try any modem you want (Gingerbread or ICS) but for me I got best reception and data speeds with LP5 so am keeping it till we have better ones

I also leave wifi always on even when not connected but still mobile data is very battery hog!

But if that your experience with CM9 the I might go ahead and flash it

cheers mate

In my experience it´s all voodoo! I ALWAYS look at the numbers, not the bars and all the "wonder radios" from the i9000 releases were CLEARLY voodoo stuff.
Often enough new radios just brought more power consumption but no better reception.

So I kindly ask you...did you check the numbers by app like this one?
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImRlLmFuZHJvaWQudGVsbmV0Il0.
In my eyes that is the ONLY way to get clearance if a radio really has a better reception.

========================================================================================================================

b.t.w.: what I´m seeing now is much better....3h48min 93% battery
That is the "region" I was at with stunner...maybe even better...we´ll see.

@afilopou: read that stunner seems to have massive battery drain if usb debugging is enabled....I always disable it. only enabled when I use titanium backup!
Maybe that killed your battery too ?!

I did not use that app, but I have my signal written in text instead of bars (see attached pic) so I think that can be taken as a measurement also

Did you select internal GPS as your GPS source? I was having the same problem, the GPS would see 20+ Satellites but wouldn't lock to any of them.

erikwervo said:
I saw the pic attached. Weird that is exactly my setting. And not only detect my position in an instant but also navigation running super smooth.

Have you try to uninstall the maps? (Using root explorer or something like that)
And go to this thread google maps ownhere and follow the instruction given. Hope it help.

Tried both your methods and still nothing. I think ill have to wipe my device and start over..

DJ-Tumor · Apr 10, 2012

I accept that

Finally both do the same

I´m just asking because so many (stupid) people jumping for fun when they see all bars without knowing that its only 3G and other radio would have only 1 bar but "H"

btw....try that app! it free and brings nice widgets for data and wifi! I like it!

is there CRT Animation in this rom, I don't see it but its CM9 and if its based of GS2 which I also own, it has CRT animation.

@matius44

Dare I flash this on CM9, mate?

Excellent ROM and excellent work imilka, CM9 team, S2 team, AOSP team and all contributors!

Very fast and complete for a daily ROM - the battery usage is around 1% when in StandBy, with average use (3G on, 2hrs screen-on time, 40 mins of calls, 1 hour of WiFi, 10 sms) - 2.5% per hour! That's similar to GB with Franco's kernel #10! (I wonder what Franco will do with the ICS kernel when the sources are out)

Some questions:

1. Any idea how to remove the annoying (for me at least) red underling of new words when typing an sms? (my lingo is not english and I would prefer not to use this feature)

2. Any idea how to make the SMS message window larger? (when typing text in portrait mode - in landscape it's OK but the text pointer seems to not show up correctly)

3. Location based on mobile cell info seems to work erratically for me - e.g. the weather widget doesen't detect my location most of the time.

BTW, the alarm tone is TERRIBLE, would wake the dead if they used it..

1. change it in settings >>> language & input >>> uncheck spelling correction

2. use faster fix see if it helps or use LP1 modem

3. i thought alarm is to wake the dead ???? sleep=1/2 dead !!!

I think that the sound n volume levels are much better than Stunner..with my Sennheiserz on I definitely think the quality n volume level is better..

N btw in Advanced I changed my "screen mode" to "Dynamic"..the colors improved..but after that I changed the "Scenario" to "Gallery"..n it takes the color reproduction to next level..the colors r awesome now

Your battery life will be slightly less spectacular with that setup, I'm afraid.

Oh..if that happens then I will change it back to "UI"..but its a nice little tweak that I thought everybody should know in case..

Hello. Thanks for nice ROM.
Guys, in Quadrant in System Info I have noticed that it detects only one CPU core. I do not remember for sure how it was on other ROMs but to me it looks like something is wrong. Do you have some info on this? I know, the phone is fast and responsive and quadrant score is OK at around 3900.

A man without a Quadrant score is like a fish without a bicycle.
