Has anyone checked this out? Can it be incorporated into our current ROMs?

If you are overclocked does it mess with those values?

You just flash the zip right? Any wipes needed?

nitsuj17 · May 1, 2012

will it work? yes (results may vary)...but the claims in the thread are ridiculous

no it wont increase your batt life "ten fold"

/me shakes his head at moronic claims by "devs" (liberal use of the word)

Jizzylax · May 1, 2012

I think I will pass.

kevdliu · May 1, 2012

i dont think wipes are needed in this case. the tweaks do increase battery life but of course not by 10th fold. without the tweaks by the end of the day i would have around 50% left and with the tweaks yesterday i had 76% left. Usage may vary but only slightly. (i dont use my phone almost at all during the day)

Correct, it will not increase it "tenfold" but the OP in the original thread was making a point.

I installed the .zip (Thanks kevdliu!) last night before charging/going to bed.

So far I have 7h 0m 3s on my battery (will update with screen shot) and here are the breakdowns. Battery life is at 61% (battery % mod)
Display - 61% (set between 1/3 & 2/3 all day) 1h 10m 53s
Mediaserver - 9% 24m 8s
Pandora - 9% 3h 21m 41s keep awake; 25m 26s CPU total
WIFI - 9% 7h 0m 3s
Cell Standby - 7% 7h 0m 3s
Phone Idle - 5h 49m 9s

For me this seems like an increase in battery life so far, but I guess I'll find out at the end of the day.

I will update later at bedtime with better results/compare to before the .zip

Couldn't agree more. He makes he sound a lot better than even possible.

A more detailed description of what this does would be nice

What exactly does this do? And is there any way to tell if it is working?
Also a way to undo it if one decides it doesn't work for them would be a good thing to make available.

There's a description in the dudes op in og inc dev section here of what everything does. If you decide there's no improvements of any sort you can delete the script it puts in etc/init.d and reboot to remove it.

Now does this effect a nand back up?

It shouldn't, since the file is put in system/etc, and system files are included in nandroid backups.

Yes. If you do a nand before flashing (which you should anyway) you can simply go back to the nand if needed.
