? So, on my unrooted TouchWiz, I was easily getting scores of 5000-5100 in Quad, now I'm getting scores of 3800. I mean my phones fast and all but sometimes I don't feel I'm getting the most out of it with those scores...I get 7000 in AnTuTu. (Running AOKP Build 4)

? Also, where is the clear RAM on this build??
? I don't have SetCPU on this build yet.
? I'm losing ALOT of battery and have NO idea why either..
Any input would be GREAT.

Lean Kernel might not bump your scores up significantly, it isn't meant to be a performance kernel. Your scores are low because most people your see posting high scores on QS have an overclocked CPU running a performance governor which basically keeps the CPU running at full blast at all times. I wouldn't put too much stock in those scores since they aren't a real representation of what average use will be. Stick with what you like and performs best for you.

This.

Also, benchmarks are one of the more useless measurements imo. Fun? Absolutely. Meaningful? Not really, to an extent.

Yes. There isn't much that you need to change in order to get better battery life. Lean Kernels default governor is Interactive and its a modified one that is made for battery life without sacrificing performance. I would overclock the CPU or anything, I see no need too but you can change the scheduler to deadline, thats the only major tweak I did.

There's no way this is normal with 3hrs of display on. Brightness all the way down..no apps running...I went ahead and bought a OEM Battery and waiting for it to be delivered..battery may be not functioning properly.

The battery would have been covered under warranty and you could have got it replaced for free just sayin

I'm running AOKP 4 and everything seems to be going fine. Ever considered under clicking for better battery life?

It could be the battery or the phone. Download an app called CPU Spy to make sure that your phone is going to sleep when it should. If it isn't going to sleep then it is highly possible something is keeping it awake. Since you have a new battery on the way I would recommend that you still download this app since its free and you can make sure that ROM is functioning properly. If it is the battery/phone you are covered under warranty and should be able to get a replacement from Samsung.

That could be normal depending on your usage. If you are a heavy user then I would say that's pretty good. This is what I would do to help you batter life out... Download SetCPU, set min to 384 max 1512, interactive governor and deadline scheduler. Then go over to the profiles tab and create a new profile by clicking the plus. Select screen off, and set the max to something around 584mhz and min 381, keeping governor and scheduler the same and make the priority 99. Make sure to enable profiles on the bottom when you are done.

Doing this will ensure that your phone wont but running at full blast when your screen is off.

I don't know if this could be an issue with where you are, but are you signal bars always grey like that? If yes then that would be why your battery life is horrible. If you phone is constantly trying to acquire a data signal or you are in an area with bad signal reception your battery is going to die quicker than anything else.

Those grey bars?? Then yes and no.

The second photo was from yesterday, 3hr 35min display & Auto & 1hr voice call. WiFi the whole usage time...I think I'm just over estimating how good the battery really should be. :eek:
