[ROM] Eclipse JB for Droid 4

Longevity

no oc so far

I understand there is no overclock available, but what I'm most interested in is making the battery last as long as possible. I'm a heavy user, from surfing the web to multiple social networking accounts and plentious texting. I have a few questions:

1.) I installed the speedscript, but I am interested in the script listed here: | MOD | May 15, 2013 | 4cyl Turbo v0.5.4_r1 w/ 250 shot NOS | Entropy | zRAM Swap - xda-developers . If I uninstalled the speedscript (how would I do that?), is your ROM compatible with this script?

2.) What are the other things I should do to get max battery? I am in San Antonio, with plenty of 4G and wifi at home. I do use the 4G LTE On/Off app to switch to 3G a good armount. I keep the screen on minimum brightness most of the time, and the screen is set to sleep after a minute of inactivity. GPS is normally off or just enabled via Google services. Bluetooth is off, and I uninstalled a lot of apps I didn't use (went from like 130 to 68). What other things must I do to make my phone last 24 hrs (I'm aiming low, don't want to get greedy and aim for like 3 days or something outlandish lol). Thank you for your time. Please you other forum users, leave your nuggets of wisdom as well! :biggrin:

you could try underclocking; that helped me when we were back on ICS.

I tried that on my nexus 7, and thought that performance was actually worse; I'd love to know if anyone has tried it on a droid 4 running eclipse.

use a logcat to figure out whats running in the background and eliminate it. this means remove framework and do build.prop edits to lengthening scan intervals. you can also try juice defender.

I run the hot plug governor normally, and the Nos Entropy tweak works well on the CM 10.1 5/14 Nightly that I'm also running. I haven't tried it on this ROM b/c I'm not sure it's safe. (Myfishbear?)

EDIT: Went ahead and applied the script, it works AMAZINGLY WELL!!

I am a seasoned ROM user, when it comes to the basics of using the terminal to enable scripts, using custom recoveries to flash and restore (and backup) ROMs, but that's about it unfortunately :/ I will try Juice Defender if it will help.
 
I've tried my lapdock for the first time since I've updated to 1.0.6 and the jellybean mouse pointer is back. Any way of fixing this?

I've seen this mentioned but not a fix - every time I connect/ disconnect to the PC, my custom ringtone and notification sounds get changed to what I assume are defaults. Does this have something to do with the phone mounting the SD Card to the PC? How do I stop this? It started with JB, ICS it didn't happen.
 
OK, sorry if the questions are a little noobish but I don't want to mess this up and I'm a little unclear.

I'm running Eclipse 1.5.2 ICS and safestrap 2.11 and want to upgrade it. My questions are: is there any reason I would need to first go to a stock JB rom rather than upgrade directly and run the Kexec patch? Do I need to upgrade to safestrap 3.11 or will 2.11 work?

If you update to 3.11, you will need to start over with a fresh install of Eclipse. Safestrap 2 and 3 use different formats so you cannot restore from 2 in 3.

I'm fine with a fresh install but if I can use 2.11 I'd rather use that.
