I've been using this ROM for a few days now, and my battery is draining like never before. I barely use the phone and my brightness is at lowest, but my battery does not seem to last longer than 8 hours.
Is there something to do about this. Because it's very annoying. Didn't had this with the stock gingerbread, there my battery lasted at least 12 to 15 hours..
If i look in Settings -> battery, there the most of the battery is taken by 'Stand-By' modus.
I tried to use "Advanced Task Killer", with no success of improved battery life.

Does someone have a fix? This is a great ROM but because of the battery issue i'm thinking to switch back to Gingerbread..

Thanks in advance!

BTW: first time i've installed a custom ROM, so all noob advice is welcome

Use Battery Calibration from Playstore. After flashing a new rom, the battery is quite often wrong calibrated.

Battery Calibration Won't help, it's like Portal's cake. I tried that a couple of times before it was debunked and the truth is it never helped my devices in any way. What he needs to do is check for any app or services draining the battery. Wifi always on (and not connected) bluetooth or GPS? A backup app or sync service like twitter's or facebook's (facebook app is a battery hog by the way =P). On the other hand, task killers are not recommended either. Whatever service needed to be run will be shut down by the task killer and restarted by the app needing it over and over again, so the drain will indeed be worst.

Turn off Google backup if you don't need it.
It is a well known battery and data drainer especially when ROM is installed for the first time.

I was wondering if the color branding on youtube videos could be fixed if other (newer or older) libs could be used (maybe from the ZTE Blade) because Gangster47 says :

Quote

"Old"(for froyo?) has an unknown padding between color components parts of returning buffer. I have fixed that for most videos, but some strange resolutions are still gets broken colors with green line on top. I think you can use "old" libs from ZTE Blade on any device, because "new" libs work on ZTE Blade too.

. Or has this something to do with divisibility of the resolutions by 4 or 16,  giving a decimal outcome? (hence this "strange resolutions" he's talking about). I really want this to be fixed as this is the only remaining issue of this ROM.

Happy new year, guys and thank you C3C0 for the New Year's present (OctaJelly), might try this if it becomes stable like this PA rom =D.

I already tried those libs in the past but I found them worse than the original once. Playback was laggy.

Tomorrow I go to my real work after some break and will be too busy the whole January to finish one of my projects.

If anybody feels like doing some investigation on this issue, feel free. Links to complete sources are available in the first post.

This does perform well in games? not good games, just some Classic games, it's faster than the gingerbread? waiting for a answer, i want speed and good looking.

Gingerbread tends to be better for gaming.

Hi there! I just want to know, which setting (phone or tablet mode) is the best way to run, if I want to save my battery... (which mode consum more battery...)

Also i want to know, if the senzor for calling (I think its proximity) works correct, cause some other roms just doesnt turn of my display during calling.

And the last question is, if there is no graphic fractures (or transition defects), for example when rotating the phone in some apps... because I had the JB (dont know which) and when I was navigating by my Sigic navigation and when I turned the phone, there was just huge crash in transition effect and app. felt down.

TY for answering!! And thanks for that great work C3CO!!!

This ROM is no longer being supported nor developed. I recommend migrating to ParanoidJelly that I am maintaining these days.

I've seen the button in the upper right corner of Trebuchet (the stock launcher) in tablet mode does this. No idea what it's called.

[C3C0]

RocketLauncher.
It's a part of Trebuchet.

if you've seen it on a friends phone, why not ask your friend for it?

His friend probably just has Paranoid Android on his phone. That's where he saw it.

I think it has something to do with tablet mode. Not entirely sure.

I'd dump the apk from PA ICS to check, but I'm too lazy.
