Terrible battery life on the iPod 5G.
soap:
There is no open ARM memory optimization patch, the work in January got committed quite quickly.
The kernel+audio thread on COP patch does not appear to considerably extend runtimes, but no proper, full-drain, test has been performed yet to the best of my knowledge.
Llorean:
Except the full-drain test by me the day we decided KoC6 was working, which showed that enabling the coprocessor decreased runtime by about 2%, but that by moving the audio thread to it increased runtime by about 5%. Not a significant change, but enough to be measurable.
reid:
someone said that the battery option in the settings is for estimating battery life? But the lowest I have is 1300. I thought the battery was like 450. Oh and now when I plug my ipod 60g 5gen into a wall charger it gives me the apple sign , then boots up, shows me usb, then shuts down and this cycle repeats. Is that normal? I assume not right?
Llorean:
Please try using the most recent build.
reid:
I just installed it 3 days ago has it been updated since then?
