Root Cyanogen Tazz 1.0

[lukesdiesel]

Well out of all 2.2 ROMS I have tried Cyanogen Tazz 1.0 seems to be the best. Its very quick and holds a good battery charge. I was using Cyanogen Tazz V8 but it was killing my battery.


I think I have finally found a 2.2 ROM I will stick with for a while.

That sounds good.

Well, it looks like it's time for me to test another Froyo ROM.

 

[lukesdiesel]

This ROM is super fast. Now Ive only been testing it for about 1 day but I have yet to have any issues. Here is my SetCpu Settings

Main 710/528
Temp 245/245
Charging 710/710
Screen Off 480/480

Just remember that this ROM using Launcher Pro. I know some people don't care much for LP..


Luke

 

[Frisco]

Well, you can put whatever launcher you want in there.

But LP has been my favorite for quite a while; I even purchased the "Pro Plus" code.

 

[lukesdiesel]

This is my 2nd LP ROM. I'm starting to Dig it.

Once you use CT1.0 let me know what ya think about it.

Hey Luke,
Just flashed this ROM and am currently setting it up. I was wondering if you've been using it w/the JIT-compiler or not? I've heard from some people whose opinions I value that it doesn't make a difference on the Eris because our phone's processor is out of date compared to the ones JIT was meant for. And that it also can sometimes seems sluggish if it is enabled, but I'm wondering why it would be included in the ROMs if there weren't some potential benefit to it. Anyway, I'll let you know what I think of it once I've had some time to mess around. Thanks for the heads up!

 

[lukesdiesel]

I left JIT disabled.

Awesome! Yeah, so far the only issues I've had are with the camera... I took a picture, deleted it, and then it got stuck trying to get back to the camera, froze up and I had to pull the battery. Also, I've been trying out the Google Voice Actions, and there's been a little funkiness going on there. It's fine at first, but there's a way to tell it to do something (send a text/email, etc.) and then hit the microphone button again to add more-- and it seems to force close every time. These are pretty small things but the only ones I've noticed so far. Of course, it could just be my phone too. Other than that, so far so good.

i couldn't get any voice search or dial to work. fc everytime.

also bettercut won't work - cannot create any custom icons. not wild about the themed font.

i do love the speed of everything. it is faster than the other froyo roms.

How are you finding out what your battery life it? I downloaded the HTC battery widget but when I go to add it, it isn't listed.... What are you looking at? Battery life is important to me.....

Thanks.... After 4 hours, I am now at 51%....Hmmm, not good. I just flashed this ROM, and I guess that I will just have to test it a little while longer after setting the SetCPU profiles you have listed.

 

[lukesdiesel]

I know everyones Eris acts different to different ROMs. I used Cyanogen Tazz V8 and got very little time out of my battery. This is the first 2.2 ROM I have used that my battery actually lasted longer than 8hrs.

Usage is the biggest factor, Luke. If your device is basically just sitting there with the screen off most of the time, you'll get tremendous battery life as compared to those of us who receive and make ten to 30 calls per day, send out and receive a lot of text messages and several emails, browse the internet and play Meteor.

Not to mention those who actually use their telephone to play radio ("Pandora") and/or music half the day (but they're all kids of 60s hippies ).

Luke, just a thought and not intending to step on toes or anything. But I question the way you have your charging profile set. MY thinking is that charging tends to warm a battery anyway, so the charging profile should have a lower down-side setting. I set mine at 710 and 248, that way it CAN slow down if it doesn't have anything better to do.
But, you have a temp setting that's very low, depending upon how you have your percentages set it could override the charging setting, and my point becomes moot.

Oh ya usage will tell the tale. Going without a signal is probably one of the biggest battery killers.

I would say my total usage yesterday was as follows:

Calls 2hrs 14 mins 03s
Texts between 80-100
Checked and sent around 15-20 emails.
I have my Email set to check every hr and weather updates every hr.


Now I know everyone is different but the above is probably my average daily use for my phone. This ROM seems to last the longest out of all the ROMs I have tried.

Your right I probably could turn it down while charging. I usually don't have an issue with the temp while charging unless im using wireless tether.

That much usage with the battery life you're reporting is excellent.

 

[lukesdiesel]

Let just see if it keeps up or if it was a fluke.

that is some insane battery life if your doing all of that. are you using the stock battery? or the 3500mah?

Actually I am using the battery that came with my 2nd replacment phone. Its not even a HTC battery but its a 1300 batt.

Ya thats it.... it friggin rocks. Ive had my phone unpluged for 15 mins, sent 2 texts and the battery is still @ 100%.

ive been unplugged after a full charge for a little more than 2 hours now, have sent/received about 20 txts and i downloaded 2 apps from the market, im at 97%. im using kaosfroyo tho.

if battery life is what youre looking for, kaosfroyo is THE BEST rom! hands down. thats not a knock on tazz either, he has done great work on his rom, i just didnt see the battery life i wanted.
