Dolphin HD upgrade = massive battery drain

I've always had good battery performance up until about three days ago when it started dropping by 50% overnight in standby. After much faffing about and experimenting with monitoring programs that seem to show no problems, I remembered reading on here a while ago that someone had a problem with Dolphin HD. I've had Dolphin installed for ages with no problem, but did upgrade it just before the battery issue started, so I've uninstalled it and hey presto! battery life back to normal.
No idea why the upgrade should cause this but thought I'd post my findings in case anyone else has a similar issue.

Your at 50% of what i did; now reinstall it and it should be ok.

I might do that eventually checkbox but I don't really use it since Opera Mobile came out.

EC05 - Your Thoughts

We don't have a thread yet discussing things that we like/don't like about the update to EC05. I am quite certain that Sprint ID will be a hot topic here, but we don't need to limit it to that.
What do you like and what don't you like? What has been fixed and what has not been fixed?
Personally, I am enjoying the Sprint ID because of some additional ringtones and wallpapers. The launcher works much like the stock Android launcher with the exception of the iD button replacing the browser button. I always activate the internet from an icon in a home screen anyways.
I have also noticed that the GPS seems to be very strong and accurate!!
In call volume seems to be louder (to me) as well.

I would probably enjoy Sprint ID if I could get any apps to show up in the app drawer for me. It's empty forcing me to stick with Touchwiz.

It seems to be much more stable. Gps works great. I've had no 3g data issues. No FCs, minus the xda app. I had to remove one bloatware file to get my adfree hosts file updated due to the /system partition having no memory left. The browser still has checkerboarding, but that's a minor thing for me, and the keyboard still does its thing. Otherwise a really good running stock ROM for me.
I did put launcher pro back on though. I've gotten too used to it.

Hardware keyboard sucks even more than it did before, which is impressive.
There's no longer a separate silent and vibrate ringer setting.
Those two are basically a killer. I guess I'll keep DI18 forever. :\

Orientation is slow as molasses. The terminal emulator yamaha_sensorcalibutil hack doesn't help at all. Will play with for a few days and probably go back to DI18 if i can't find a fix for orientation issue.

It is amazing that they could make the keyboard worse isn't it? As for the silent option, that's been gone since the first froyo beta. Not sure why they got rid of it.. it was a nice feature. :-/

Ok I have only been using it for about 10 minutes but I immediately tested the few things that I knew existed on EB13 for me.
1. Camera sports mode fixed
2. Video recording in low light fixed
3. Compass being screwed up fixed
4. 3g speeds faster for me
5. overall speed seems faster
6. Physical keyboard isn't missing keys for me DISCLAIMER: I am not a speed typer. I have only used the keyboard a few times since owning the Epic. However on EB13, and before, I could produce the letter skips pretty easily. Especially on double leTTers. I tested by typing 100 words as fast as I could and I did not have a single letter miss. But I did have a few spelling errors
Only two problems that I know of which I don't really care that much about
1. Browser checkerboarding
2. Playing audio from flash content over the web to bluetooth headphones stutters badly. Flash audio out of the speakers work fine. Had this problem on EB13 also.
If I run into anything else I will let you know.

My orientation and compass are flawless. I will keep an eye on it though to make sure I don't find a problem because I have only used it for about 20 minutes now.

So far, everything is running very smoothly and appears to be more responsive than my stock DI18. The only issue I have seen thus far is I disabled my Wi-Fi to look at the SprintID packs (you can only view these when using the data connection) and when I went to re-enable the Wi-Fi, I received an error. This corrected itself after I turned off my data (holding the power button and selecting the new data option) and then back on.
EDIT: Tried the BlueTooth, which worked great;However, when I turned it off and went to watch a YouTube video, the sound was only coming through the phones speaker and not the main speaker. It only started working again after a reboot. I believe I saw this in a thread a while back. Anyone else experiencing this yet?

Everything but the TWS bug has been fixed. Browser still checkerboards but not as bad.
3G and Gps have been vastly improved as well.
Overall its a very good update. Even Sprint ID is a pleasant surprise.

Sprint Id is a pleasant surprise to me too. I like the ESPN id with its wallpaper, ringtones and icons.

For those using sprint id, do you notice any performance or battery problems from using it? That is the main reason I am avoiding it. Wanted to wait until more data came in to see what peoples opinions were. If people could throw up some screen shots showing some differences that would be nice.

Nice Job
the orientation is amazing
seems as snappy as a custom ROM for me
but i did remove all sprints crap.
Any-who im waiting on a RC cm7 to be my daily ROM
until the nexus s 4g is released then i may jump on-that since its pure Google.
or its ported to the epic.
but overall Sammy did pretty good this time around.

Actually, its still there. You just have to change it in the settings every time you want to change from vibrate to silent.

Seems generally good. No lag, most of the bugs fixed, only the TWS bug remains (which seems to be in the AOSP Android code, not created by Samsung). It's too early to tell but it seems that battery life may be average at best. I've been on Stock EB13 with Genocide 0.4a kernel (which is an OC/UV kernel) and I got used to 24+ hours battery life, I don't think I'll see that with full stock EC05.

The battery life has gotten significantly worst with EC05. The drain when the screen is off is significantly more. There is a lot of lag, even with calibrating upside down, with the screen orientation. I have the same set up as I did with stock EB and the camera fix and the battery life was a lot better. I may go back to that.

The good for me:
1- 3g speeds the best yet, had 1.3Mb down and 700k up while driving.
2- Everything seems much smoother and faster. I wiped my stock sd card before flashing ec05 and my sd tools results are better.
3- GPS and orientation speeds are flawless. (removed Sprint bloat)
4- Modem in general seems fixed. My wifi doesn't drop out every 10 minutes like it did on eb13, and I can stream radio on tunein radio again without it buffering every minute or so.
5- Sprint ID. It's more options and stuff for us to choose from. Some may hate that, but at least it's actually useful bloat from Sprint that I didn't remove.
Still haven't found an issue after several hours of use.

I would give it a little time to judge the battery life on the update. I am pretty sure your usage has changed a bit due to the update brining something new and all the re-setup you probably had to do. In regards to lag - I have zero issues with that, it seems nice and fast to me - install spare parts from market and put animations to fast to get it even smoother. My GPS locked instantly inside my house which never happened before on any ROM (stock or custom). Screen rotation speed can be fixed by doing the yamaha calibration trick (need to root for that though) - I had to do this with every ROM including EB13 Samsung flash. I understand that to each his own, but I am definitely liking this update. They did a good job and now that I resolved my exchange server issue, I am really liking it. Good job Sprint/Sammy!

I still have the BT issue as the EB13,I have a Jabra A2DP headset,it doesn't see my headset after i turn it on,I had to turn off & on bt on the phone again for it to see my bt headset,I had this exact problem on EB13 but not DI18,sometimes no matter what i did,it just not seeing my bt headset anymore,had to delete and re-pair it again,very frustrating,beside this,i have no issues w/EC05.

ICS Bugs. Gallery refresh and mkv/avi videos

not the kinda thing i want to write up first thing in the morning but i want to see if i'm alone here or if these are release wide bugs in which case hopefully asus will fix them.
for some perspective, i have a galaxy nexus and that does not have any of these issues.
Gallery: i downloaded a few files off of the internet and then never showed up in the browser, even after forcing a refresh and erasing the data they did not show up. After rebooting they showed up, but on first boot nothing would work.
MKVs/AVIs. diceplayer
So 720p MKVs are even worse than before. they lag so bad that it makes honeycomb look good. 720p avi file plays perfectly.
standard def avi files in diceplayer and moboplayer are being sped up just slightly. kinda like looking at a 120hz tv. was not like this in honeycomb.
And on my Galaxy Nexus these files play perfectly in diceplayer and moboplayer, so i doubt it's an ICS issue, but an asus issue.
------
curious to see if anyone else has these issues. honestly very upset with the video issues. i was hoping that ICS would finally allow me to play my hd videos, and now my HD and SD videos are screwed up. almost like asus is forcing me to buy the prime if i want to watch videos, which i refuse to do

Two bugs I've seen so far:
-Battery meter taps out at 99%... It will not say 100. The lockscreen says Charged, but check in Battery and it says 99%, also in the notification area in the lower right.
-Two hours later, the Sync Browser in the Accounts and Sync is still thinking...

I have the same on my Moto Defy with ICS. It only reaches 100% when charger connected but will drop to 99% if removed. I guess, "It's not bug, it's a feature". You can try Battery Calibration if it never reaches 100%.

battery charge
My nexus S never charges over 96%. Then I found its a "feature". It is meant to prolong battery lifespan.

Stock internet explorer turns off by it self.

Please read up on LiPo batteries. It is working as intended. LiPo's are not meant to be ever fully charged.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium-ion_polymer_battery

People having problems with things shutting down, done a factory reset?
I know it's a huge pain, but the lag/stopping of programs I was having appears (so far) to have been solved by a wipe, and re-install of all my apps.

Ok, as a remote control hobbyist who uses lipos all the time, this is just not true. There is no reason why at a certain voltage (4.2 per lipo cell) that the TF should read 100%, this is not normal behavior..but 1% is a negligible drop in battery performance, but could only get worse.
My major bug I discovered- Do NOT use ANY LCD density apps, it will severely mess up you keyboard scaling while not affecting anything else, so I used another one and my launcher is FC'ing will not even boot into it. Time to factory restore..
Factory restore worked, did not even lose root access, but in the process discovered two things, one cool, the other not so much.
1: Asus task manager widget!!
2: tapping VERY quickly seems to be registered as a long press..try it on a widget, just tap it very fast, see if it lags up and then highlights as if it is ready to be dragged, the next tap on the screen will be seen as a drop. Apparently there are touch screen issues even within the official build..CONFIRMED.

I can't seem to duplicate this error.

Regarding the widgets, I'm not so sure that it's a bug. Now I hate to harp that drum but it's very consistent in the way it acts, and I've only found that behaviour with widgets specifically. In fact, the whole tablet runs like a bloody dream after the update, with touch reaction being one of the improved things. Regarding trouble with video in dice, I'm lucky to not have the same fate. Then again I've always been on stock.
Holy ****, I'm actually blown away. Swiftkey feels so much better now too, and there's absolutely no typing lag in chrome, which was the first thing I downloaded. Wow
EDIT:
But Chrome will never support Flash. Weh.

I as well am blown away.. Never going back to HC lol! ICS is just so smooth, and even with a couple quirks, better than HC
The quirks I see could possibly be with not having rebooted since install, so grain of salt with these please:
Slight lag when opening some programs that are not in memory
slight type lag if other things are going on (picky, I know)
bit of an install lag

Its damned good, but why oh why does the bloody GMail widget *STILL* not update/refresh properly?? i.e. what *should* happen is that new emails arrive, and the widget refreshes highlighting the new email in bold and showing an unread count..
Nope.. no dice.. seems to suffer from exactly the same behavior as the old Honeycomb widget, i.e. it updates some of the time at best (a force close on "Launcher" will cause it to refresh just as before).. In the grand scheme of things, this is small potatoes but it would've been nice if it just *worked*
In other news, the stock browser seems great and typing lag is definitely a thing of the past on forum sites like XDA

as far as email widget, do you have push notifications on for gmail?

panorama mode doesn't work with the new camera app, it just shows a black screen. Has anyone else experienced this ?
I also got a random reboot, which is new for me,, as HC never did that.

Another thing I've noticed: When I do a shutdown, I have to plug in power to get it to come bakc on. No amoutn of holding or pressing the power button will work without power applied.. Doesnt bode well for me, as it happened also on spark rom when I had it. Seem that i'm the only one with this issue :/

No sound of any kind system, media or otherwise. Silent mode is not on. Really weird. Had no problem with the tablet playing/making sounds prior to the ICS update.

Anybody dock since ics? Im not seeing my battery info for the dock in notifications, just that it is docked.
Some of the buttons(namely the settings button) dont work or dont work the same. Maybe there is suppose to be a firmware update? Is there away for it to force a check for an update of the docks firmware?

Yep, all enabled. As I said above, it works *sometimes* and always after you force close Launcher, but we shouldn't have to do that..
Had a look around, and irritatingly some people get the same problem and some don't so there's no conclusive answer

G+ keeps closing

I did not notice any sort of issue with dice and 720p mkv files. Should I be looking for something specific ? (These profiles are baseline as high causes artifacts under hc).

[Q] how many browser crashes do you get a day?

Howdy folks,
I've been running custom roms since I first got my iconia. Though I went thru a brief period of over clocking I am now running a stock-based rom.
Browser crashes every once in a while have almost become a fact of life but I am curious, are they also for you? How often do you experience one?
I am currently on FLEXREAPER RF1. In 3 hours I've crashed opera twice (once with flash) and the stock browser ounce.
In a typical day, perhaps 2-3x on stock browser is the norm for me.
I look forward to finding out if my iconia is messed up or if this is normal. Thanks for your input!

Define "crash". Getting Force Close errors? General Protection Fault? Or just the browser closes without warning?
I might get browser close a couple of times a day. No big deal. I get it on my pc also.

Browser crash ALOT for me usually becoming unresponsive while playing or using flash content.
Opera, stock, dolphin all the same.
chrome not so much but then again it doesnt play flash so i dont use so much.
Really annoys me alot to be honest not sure if its a ICS issue or not.
As for other crashes no not really just browser for me
Cheers

I used to have the browser close pretty frequently on me in gingerbread (stock os/stock browser). I have not noticed any since ics (also all stock)

Stock browser usually quits to homescreen suddenly. Sometimes it remember the site it was on sometimes not.
Opera crashed on particular site by exiting to home. It also froze up while playing episode on daily show website.
So far (haven't had it long) opera seems stable but a page here and there mess it up. Plus that flash issue. Will stick with it awhile longer to see if it does better on stability. What I mean is it's not random like stock.
Evelbug, how long do you use the tablet and how long have you been on stock? Been thinking of switching over to see if more stable.
Thanks!

Have only had RF1 on tab since yesterday but experienced quite a few browser crashes at least with stock browser, hangs for a second then just closes. No FC or other message.
XDA Premium app has been doing the same thing so not sure what's up with that.

I'm on flexreaver (12.5, I think), and haven't had trouble with the stock browser crashing. I get the occassional screen flicker and have to reset my wifi once in a while, but the browser seems well behaved.

quick update, in case anyone's browser shopping,
opera mobile all day today and no closes or crashes. a few sites it doesn't do well on, but I guess that's what the stock one will be for...

I have had it in the beginning (browser just closing) when I just install a rom but after a few days it is gone.

ICS in Note
After upgrading to ICS via kies,
Battery seems to drain very fast.
Camera hangs up sometimes and other camera related apps like Instagram also but maybe the pic quality is little better.
It seems to crash when some other apps runs too.
Not sure if it was there before but I can pause music and video if I show my palm on the screen.
The screen rotates faster than in GB with a pause at the beginning though.
News fonts are good.
Window animations are good but still dont' know how to stop it since it might be draining battery fast.
Can use Chrome now and it's fast.

I cannot use Mass Storage Mode. I recieve a "Ui stopped to work" error.

I am facing,
1. High android OS usage. Sometime its higher than Brightness, and most of the time its highest usage of batt after brightness. (I read somewhere, it said its calculation errors, but I think its not, cause my battery no longer last that long.)
2. Camera will sometimes fail to operate. I really dunno what is wrong with that.
3. Phone just cant go into deep slp. Its being kept awake by some apps (Which I cant narrow it) Using BetterBatteryStats, I found out its I2_HSIC. (Whats this I2_HSIC ??)
I am using a 5400mAh mugen batt. previously on GB, my usage can last me 24hrs, now it can only last 16hrs or less. I installed lesser apps, and lesser widgets. Disable account sync and google backup. Settings more or less kept the same.

I can get the screen back by just waiting it out. Usually takes about 2 minutes. I sure do wish I knew what was happening, though, so I could confirm no damage was being done.

As far as #2 goes, go to your battery stats and see if "media" is listed. If so, force close it and try again. Seems to work for me. I'm not sure if it is just me or not because I have been playing with settings lately, but the media scanner tends to run wild it seems (also seems to lend to battery drain).
I am just disappointed that they left out some of the nice features of ics like the updated gallery and camera. Seems kind of lazy to me and no wonder things arent working well if they are mix and matching gingerbread and ics rather than going all in and starting development from there. I would definitely go back to using one of the non tw ics roms if it weren't for the sod issues I was having...

4. Contacts and phone apps show up in 5s or more to load: need to switch to those ugly dialers, no choice at all
5. No widgets menu in app drawer as in nexus ICS
6. Launchers freezing: tried both nova and apex: many a times the screen went blank for a few seconds after hitting home (didn't crash though)
