Correct me if i'm wrong, but i have some questions(as we all know vsync limits the fps to a certain value)..... seeing as enabling vsyinc would require even more cpu usage(and our cpu isn't quite the best),, wouldn't it be better to shut it off?(just curious and i'm looking forward to some convincing arguments)
P.S.: excuse the typos and s***...i' drunk

V-sync has never been off. V-sync has always been used in Android for ages, it is not new to Jelly Bean.

The change in Jelly Bean simply starts rendering the next frame based on the v-sync timing. The Android hardware composer communicates with the kernel to receive the v-sync event.

About the 3g battery drain. This morning while waiting the bus I was browsing the internet using 3g and I got something like 15% drop in 10 minutes. Then when the bus came I kept the data on and still browsing while moving. The drain was only like 2% in 20 minutes. I guess it's something that depends on the signal strength.
If I'm not using data batery lasts almost 3 days with moderate wifi usage (several hours per day) and calls over 2 hours per day.

I have seen loads of posts on here about the ROM eating the battery when using 3G, so I have just tried a highly unscientific experiment.

I fully charged the battery today to 100%, within seconds it was down to 92%, I understand about the safety setting etc, so initial drop to be expected, the WIFI has been off all the time, the mobile signal around here is very flakey at the best of times (just on a side note, is anyone else experiencing a real drop in signal on Orange or T Mobile since they launched EE? I know ours has gone useless now)

The battery only dropped around 10% over 8 1/2 hours, minimal use, I then ran Tune In Radio over the 3G signal for around 10 minutes, and the battery dropped 14%, not scientific but it does seem a heavy drain in a short period, maybe the calculations to work out the % are wrong? I have no idea.

I enclose the pictures, just to confirm the time and %

I should say that I find the ROM faultless in use, no reboots, crashes etc

I'd say that pretty much corresponds with my findings....(except I'm on Giffgaff - O2 mnvo).
Locking the phone to 3G doesn't seem to make any difference either, so I don't think is the 2G-3G switching issue going on.
Rom is fantastic,Only thing is either its mis-reporting battery stats, or 3G is eating up batterylife like theirs no tomorrow, If you need any other info, just ask and i'll gladly pass it on.

I have only one issue with the rom...the in-call volume behaves strange!One call i'm about to go deaf,the next calli barely can hear the person on the other side so i increase the volume but i can't decrease it once it's increased-so again i am getting deaf..finally,the last call is the most interesting!It starts with the lowest volume and in five seconds it's pumped up to the max! Can this be related to dsp manager?

It was working in ~12-15fps even on GB roms not to mention ICS roms. It was unusable really (at least for me). 30fps (29) now. Good luck cocking that into stock+

Exactly my point, zemljače!

One more thing, when I install and run AnTuTu Benchmark, it runs only till it comes to testing 3D and then stops testing. What could be the reason?

You're overclocking to high that's the only reason AnTuTu would stop on 3d testing.

I Stand corrected as after writing the above I tried AnTuTu and mine quit during 3d testing. Sorry.

Cannot find how to 'safe-eject' the device before unplugging the data cable. There's no 'USB mode', am I right?

what's that theme? have a link? thanks～

[darthmaul88]

I've seen that on infusion tillaz has recomended to disable the fast_dormancy for reducing the battery drain on 3g.
Also an explanation here http://forum.xda-dev...=1111581&page=2 .
Can we disable fast_dormancy on CM9?

Its a paid theme. Touchwiz 5 from the market.

Nobody any ideas on my tapatalk battery usage?

Interesting. And everything stayed the same in terms of system speed?

How about other people?

i get a bit of slow down and lag if i have a lot of things open but nothink clearing my app history dont sort out,other than that i can not find one problem with this rom so happy i can now use my flash player,thats why i got this phone for

[SterLu]

So far, so good... It may not be as fast as a 500$ phone but it runs relatively smooth, first rom that's comparable to gb, speed-vise. The only problem I have is the battery life, on the first charge the battery was low-ish in 24 hours, i charged it again and it looks like it's gonna last longer. Though only now i realised that its related to mobile data. So should we try disabling that fast dormancy thing?

hey, can i flash google now from Tillaz (i know i can do it but will it work)?
has anyone done this?

[tracasan]

A lot of apps are incompatible with my phone... even gmail. Will this be fixed in future builds?
