And you use the kernel that comes with the ROM? You don't install Dori, Gustavo or anything like that?

Well, you can check the running apps (Settings -> Apps -> Scroll until you see "Running"), or check who uses the battery after, e.g., 15 minutes. Possibly you'll see who causes this.
IF you provide a logcat (you can send me in a private message), it may be helpful, who knows.

New build is available here: https://www.mediafire.com/?h73hx36xqdombmj
(Sorry, not yet in OTA, I hope next time. Scott said he will create a new folder in his OTA site for i9100, then my builds will be available through OTA.)

I think this time there might be some new stuff in Settings, but I didn't understand what.

The download stop on 175 MB? What is the problem?

Edit
Download now finish, smile... All fine

Anyone here likes the original (white background) boot animation?
If not, I can automatically include the inverted boot animation (black background) in the next builds, so the ROM will already contain it.

black background please :laugh:
I have some problem with torch, mate. When i turn on torch via quick setting, i can't turn it of, it auto turn on again, if i want it off, i must press power button :rolleyes: and the issue that my device freeze when open folder contain apk file using root explorer still there :rolleyes:
Edit: switch to gustavo kernel, it seem ok now :)

So, whats new in this build?

I don't know, really. The changelog is large, but I am not familiar with most of the things mentioned inside it, and a large part of it is reverts of previous commits. In short, I think it's mainly small bug fixes here and there. Possibly some new small options inside the settings, no real new features as far as I understand. Feel free to check Scott's activity in github, there you will get all the info that I have...

Hey beanstalk users. I have a question. Is there any way to get more battery life? I explain... I dont care about consuming battery when i use the phone but im looking for solution to achive a good deep sleep you know what i mean. When i dont use phone i want to maximalize effectivity of deep sleep. Im using only viber from tasks which are running in background. But on other rom i have better battery life. On beanstalk i have about 1%/h but on ohter rom i have 0,5%/h. I checked services and i think there are preety the same as for example on pound rom. Maybe is that because of a lot of features on beanstalk? Maybe someone has a good way to tune a deep sleep on this rom?

I get nearly 2%/h when not using the phone, and I thought this was great. It very much depends on your settings. I'm sure there are a number of services that run in the background and poll various servers for stuff, periodically - such as gmail, sms, whatsapp, weather forecasts, media services, cell reception and so on.
Some of these are configurable, so you can tell them how often to check their stuff, while others are not. I don't know how to detect which apps / processes consume battery, when we're dealing with such low usage. Which ROM gives you 0.5%/h? Did you check various kernels with Beanstalk? Possibly the other ROM you used has another kernel.

I wasn't even familiar with this feature... Which version has this problem? Are you using the most recent one (April 3)? Can you specify one version in which it worked?

I used pound rom latest realese but there was implement less features. I dont use any kinda apps such as whatsup or facebook or other that can couse wakelocks. I love beanstalk and i think that rom is the best rom for our s2 but always has issue with battery(for me). I tried various kernels and dori was the best wiyh omm set to agresive on deep sleep. But on pound rom i cant belived that my battery life was amazing and still because went back to pound gor testing. And deep sleep on stock kernel or other delicious. But i said earlier beanstal have more stuuf under the hood and i think thats the price. But if someone like a lot costumizable stuff then beanstal is for you i was very satisfied with this rom only thing with battery drain even deep sleep. But i defenetly come back for couple of days because scott add masive tons of commits so maybe will be only better in next releases!:) go beanstalk!

I'm not on beanstalk anymore, but when I was I thought the battery life was excellent. But I used to have 2g on pretty much all the time when on wifi, which a tasker profile did or just remember to do it yourself. And had wifi/data/cellular 'airplane' mode on from bed time to when I woke up. Again, I used tasker to turn it all back on automatically but it takes like 10 seconds to just do it yourself once you're awake.
Plus greenify and exposed boot/startup manager to stop pointless things auto starting or running.
Hope these tips, if you've not tried them, help. :)

Beanstalk definitely has features that may cause more battery drain, but they're all configurable. I think you should be able to configure it to minimal battery usage, and then, if you use the same kernel as Pound ROM, you should get similar battery drain. But I don't have much experience with other KK ROMs so it's only an assumption.

When I was on ICS Rootbox, it loses 2% OVERNIGHT. But it's kind of unfair to compare the two. KK has way more features than ICS.

    Hi Guys,
    A few things:

    1. No new build yet since the dev has not done any update to the tree since the first build, so we'll all cross our fingers, he's probably on holiday. I will build a new nightly AS SOON as he update the tree.

    2. I too had problems with the gps, the solution, turn off location completly, turn it on and authorize network location pop-up, make sure the GPS zone is set to your country and finally there is an app called 'gps status' that I used that fixed my GPS issue, locks in less then 15 seconds!

    3. The wakelocks are not caused by the kernel or hardware code but by the mainframe, scott will fix it at some point i'm sure :)

    4. just reminding everyone again that I can not help with issues not relating to hardware, if the code is broken, only the dev can fix it, I only build it and integrate our hardware into the mainframe code.

    5. I'm working on more roms, such as AICP and AOKP, as well as revolt, right now most are extremly unstable or stable but don't have the cool features ported from older versions, once they do, expect it here (assuming the devs give me the OK of course)

    Happy new year to everyone!
    15
    new build is up, this time i didn't touch any of the apps.

    remember to do wipe cache/dalvik/system then flash rom then mini or micro gapps then kernel if you use another one
    15
    new Nightly up soon.
    also working on bringing more roms to our device (more info soon ;)
    14
    New nightly up in a couple of hours...
