Re: JD's ROM with Custom Pagepools + Controlled Battery Testing Results
 

does anybody have the HTC ping test? if u run it for 30 min on each page pool u can find out the true battery life all it does is a constant ping for 30 min doesnt this sound like a better test? see how well the radio works? if i had this program id run it for u guys but i dont......i know juggalo_x has it

Re: JD's ROM with Custom Pagepools + Controlled Battery Testing Results
 

Sounds pretty good. That is alot of usage. Does your memory still say 203mb or is it a lower number?

Re: JD's ROM with Custom Pagepools + Controlled Battery Testing Results
 

Just to give everyone a head's up...I had an amazing battery life yesterday since I flashed it with JD's Rom & 24MB Static PP. I took it off the charger 7:30am and used it normally for work. I got home last night at 7:30pm and it had 36% left. This includes long phone conversations, using bluetooth for about 30mins, and checking e-mails.

The last time I had JD's with 48MB Dynamic PP, it drained my battery till it turned off in less than 4 hours with minimum phone conversations and no bluetooth use.

I'm not the smartest guy in the world, but maybe there's a difference with Static and Dynamic Pagepool battery consumption!

Anyhow, thanks for everyone's hard researches!

Re: JD's ROM with Custom Pagepools + Controlled Battery Testing Results
 

How do you have a 48MB dynamic PP? Wouldn't it just be dynamic, not 48MB?

Re: JD's ROM with Custom Pagepools + Controlled Battery Testing Results
 

My memory says 143.27...48 MB Dynamic PP

I am thinking of trying out the 24 MB Dynamic PP tomorrow then try the static

I should mention that this test was also done with "beam" activated...ie..accept all incoming beams

Re: JD's ROM with Custom Pagepools + Controlled Battery Testing Results
 

I'm currently running JD 5.0 with 48MB Dynamic PP. I've had no issues with the battery. I unplug it at 8AM and use it all day including 15-20 txt messages...the occasional picture mail 30-60 minutes of talk time, data for activesync manually, and the occasional web browsing through opera...and at 11pm still at 25%

Re: JD's ROM with Custom Pagepools + Controlled Battery Testing Results
 

I believe deviant.ones results were accurate. As for everyone else testing the battery usage, please remember that your results are worthless unless you can monitor the radio power consumption separately and then subtract that out. This is due in part because the phone will consume more power to get a better signal. So unless you're camped out under a cell tower providing you with perfect signal, then chances are good your battery test results are tainted... otherwise you will have to turn the radio off to make the test, unless you ideally have multiple phones (exactly set up the same) side by side testing simultaneously,
Raging idiot

Re: JD's ROM with Custom Pagepools + Controlled Battery Testing Results
 

Are you going to post the new files or JD's latest rom D1? I was using the last one just fine, but I'd like the updated rom.

Re: JD's ROM with Custom Pagepools + Controlled Battery Testing Results
 

I second that please! I like to see the latest ROM, with 48PP!

What's the difference of 48PP Dynamic and 48PP Static? Doesn't the 48MB size defeat the purpose of being "dynamic?"

give it a try
 

i would encourage you to go ahead a download the hex editor and follow the instructions in the other pagepool thread.

i had never used an editor before and it took like 5 min to figure it out. you change 2 numbers and you are done.

Re: JD's ROM with Custom Pagepools + Controlled Battery Testing Results
 

Will do it in a bit, got rear ended today and my TP flew from my lap out my window. Still works but screen is scratched up somthing aweful.

Re: JD's ROM with Custom Pagepools + Controlled Battery Testing Results
 

OUCH...that sux

Add the your phone to your insurance claim and they should replace it (if you have full coverage)

Re: JDTP5.1 and JDTPL1 with Custom Pagepools + Controlled Battery Testing Results
 

have full coverage butthe deductable is more than the damage. driver that hit me paid me what it would cost to replace hatch and bumper and deductable for sprint insurance. was just dumb luck and my leg might have jerked in anticipation helping pop it up

Re: JDTP5.1 and JDTPL1 with Custom Pagepools + Controlled Battery Testing Results
 

Can someone please take a moment and explain what raising the page pool does? Also, what's the difference between dynamic and static page pools? Will I see a difference if I raise the page pool?

Re: JDTP5.1 and JDTPL1 with Custom Pagepools + Controlled Battery Testing Results
 

Hello? Anyone?

Re: JDTP5.1 and JDTPL1 with Custom Pagepools + Controlled Battery Testing Results
 

i think page pool is kinda like the way virtual memory works on the pc (in this case storage memory instead of hard drive) therefore the more the merrier right? some complain about battery life on the 48 mb i have a 24 and im happy might consider a 36 next time i flash. and the difference between dynamic and static is.....dynamic is OS controlled where as static is strictly that amount assigned. i can definitely say i notice a difference in speed with increased page pool

Re: JDTP5.1 and JDTPL1 with Custom Pagepools + Controlled Battery Testing Results
 

I am currently using the JDTP5.1 Dynamic 48mb PP and its been perfect thus far. Very snappy when doing my normal functions, going into inbox, opening Opera, replying to SMS, etc. So far I have had no issues to report and the battery life has been steady. By this time in the day (4:30pm) I would be missing 1 bar from the battery meter. Right now I have a full meter showing. Its great.....

Thank you!!

Re: JDTP5.1 and JDTPL1 with Custom Pagepools + Controlled Battery Testing Results
 

So if you dont have a storage card in the pro, raising the pagepool wont make a difference right?

Re: JDTP5.1 and JDTPL1 with Custom Pagepools + Controlled Battery Testing Results
 

no. It will make a difference.

Re: JDTP5.1 and JDTPL1 with Custom Pagepools + Controlled Battery Testing Results
 

Okay now I'm confused, and I don't mean to hijack this thread. Based on the other persons comment, page pool is like the pagefile.sys file in windows. Instead, it uses the internal storage card for virtual memory as opposed to the physical memory in the phone. If that were the case, there would not be any memory issues with lets say the mogul which only has 64mb. Am I right?

Re: JDTP5.1 and JDTPL1 with Custom Pagepools + Controlled Battery Testing Results
 

Its not using the memory from your storage card, it is taking it from the available ram.

Re: JDTP5.1 and JDTPL1 with Custom Pagepools + Controlled Battery Testing Results
 

Now I understand. Thanks.

Re: JDTP5.1 and JDTPL1 with Custom Pagepools + Controlled Battery Testing Results
 

Your welcome.

Re: JDTP5.1 and JDTPL1 with Custom Pagepools + Controlled Battery Testing Results
 

could you please upload a 36mb dynamic pp of JD new 6.1 rom? Thanks! I tried learning how to hex change it myself, but i do not understand what numbers i need to put in to make it a 36mb dynamic page pool.

NM, i think i figured it out, i would change those two strings to start with 09 15 i believe.

Re: JDTP5.1 and JDTPL1 with Custom Pagepools + Controlled Battery Testing Results
 

This thread kills me...

exactly, assuming nothing goes into a low power mode (which it won't on these devices), none have "startup" costs, and none have "stopping" costs.

well, that's because voltage is clamped. Current will vary (and, of course, die density will play a big role in that). But again, we aren't talking about adding/subtracting chips when pagepool is changed.

and finally....the pagepool is nothing like the pagefile on a regular operating system. A pagefile on a regular os is used to create virtual memory, by mapping through a slower and cheaper medium. By contrast, the pagepool is little more than a cache of static code portions. The nice thing is, even with a giant pagepool, you'll still have more ram available on a touch pro than many WM devices possess. I expect we'll see a lot of new software that needs that extra memory, however, and your giant pagepool will have to go.

Re: JDTP5.1 and JDTPL1 with Custom Pagepools + Controlled Battery Testing Results
 

Good stuff ggurusa. I noticed the same crappy battery life when I used a higher page pool. I guess I'll just use a 48 mb Page pool then if it makes no difference. Even with such a high page pool, Tf3d is still slow...

Re: JDTP5.1 and JDTPL1 with Custom Pagepools + Controlled Battery Testing Results
 

Anyone have any thoughts on this? Hasn't been a post in a few days. Does dynamic give any more performance over static? What is everyone's favorite value? I see 36 and 48 mention more it seems?

Re: JDTP5.1 and JDTPL1 with Custom Pagepools + Controlled Battery Testing Results
 

can anyone change the pagepool on jd's7.1 (not 2.0/3.0) to different sizes to try? i would like 24 or 32, not sure which is better.

Re: JDTP5.1 and JDTPL1 with Custom Pagepools + Controlled Battery Testing Results
 

I set it to 32 when I used 7.1. All Custom ROM's I've used on my TP, I've set to 32MB.

Re: JDTP5.1 and JDTPL1 with Custom Pagepools + Controlled Battery Testing Results
 

could you possible upload it somewhere for me? or mayber give better instructions than what i have found on here for doing it myself so i can learn instead of having to ask? i know its alot to ask but if you could help it would be awesome.
