[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] exitpr0gram:
So if i download that ROM that i linked to (Not the meanROM, the supposed stock ROM) and flashed it ... i still cannot accept any OTA updates?

I guess i just need an explanation as to why i can't receive OTAs on any ROM other than the official out of the box stock ROM. Is it the unlocked boot loader? Is is because it is rooted? Which ROMs will allow me to receive OTAs ?

If that is what's happening i would most definitely like to revert to stock as we have the new 4G LTE OTA update from Sprint coming soon here in, probably today, and i wont be around for my friend to flash his ROMs forever. It's starting to look like doing him a favor was a mistake. I should have only rooted it.

Any links, guides, or info about how to return his phone to stock as if right out of the box would be much appreciated. I made backups but i think he deleted them ...

Any help is much appreciated. Thank you.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Rxpert:
You never want to accept an OTA. Ever. If you do you can no longer gain s-off and it will severely hinder what you can flash from recovery.

Just flash any of the Roms and radios based on the newest update and you are done.

Once more for clarity...;)

NEVER ACCEPT AN OTA.

Teach your friend how to flash roms. Easy as pie
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] exitpr0gram:
Thank you for that explanation. Why else would the developers add firmware updates separately on their pages? I should have known.

My buddy did say that he accepted an OTA even tho i told him not to... he said it snuck up on him and wouldn't have known if he hadn't needed to use his phone at THAT moment.

Could this be why i cannot find the backup i created previously? Just wondering ... I can obviously flash and root etc but the "Devil is in to detail" and i don't have all the details yet.

Thanks again.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kornface13:
I could be way wrong here, but I don't believe you can accept the OTA with a custom recovery installed. I tried doing the OTA and it simply rebooted into TWRP. I tried installing it from there and it kept failing. So I think you do have to re-lock, RUU, then update, then reroot. That's the path I took.

Or do what everyone else is suggesting and flash what the devs made.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Twinning92:
Hey guys,

In a bit of a pickle at the moment. I grabbed an S1 off a friend to try and teach myself about rooting and flashing custom ROMs and such using Odin. With the final intent getting it to run ICS. Not a very hard challenge, but evidently it is for me.

I'll explain what I did, and if you can help without investing too much of your time I would be very grateful.

When I got it, it was running 2.3.3, all the tutorials I read told me to update it to 2.3.6 before doing anything more. I managed to root the phone easy enough, no issues there. But when I tried to put 2.3.6 on via Mobile Odin, (which I used to flash my S2 to ICS, long story) it had seemed to freeze on 'flashing flash kernel' for a good 15 or so minutes.

Being the daft monkey that I am, I exited the program...by removing the battery (don't judge me please). When I went to turn it on, it wouldn't load past the "Samsung Galaxy S" screen.

It goes into Download mode fine, and I've tried to flash an abundance of different Gingerbread ROMs onto the phone and Odin has just been getting stuck on the "setup connection" every time I've tried to flash.

I have tried using different USB ports which is readily suggested by most people and seems to work, using my laptop instead, different cords as well. No luck. Nothing happens when I press volume UP + home + lock like it used to, so I can't even factory reset or anything =\

I did find somewhere that suggested adding a PIT file to Odin and selecting repartition but every one yells at each other when 'repartition' gets mentioned, lol.

I hope this is in the right place, please bare with me if I used any wrong terminologies, I am relatively new to this.

Has anyone got some suggestions that may help me with my problem? =\

Thank you!

Taylor

One thing problem that many of us have with ROMS for our device is the constant force closes. As I was searching through the Asus transformer Pad Infinity forums, I came across a Memory management mod, which tweaks the heck out of the memory management, which in turn gives better multitasking, no force closes (I have only tried in on paranoid) and a bit better battery life since apps are not constantly hugging the ram. (I have now tried it on HO!NO!’s port of The Unicorn Rom (Sorry I forget the name) and I have noticed the speed difference.

** FOLLOW ALL ON SCREEN INSTRUCTIONS. PAY ATTENTION AS IT REQUIRES DIFFERENT INPUTS FROM YOU. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE AN ACTIVE INTERNET CONNECTION.

***THANKS TO zeppelinrox FOR BRINGING THIS TO THE ANDROID COMMUNITY AND THANKS TO EVERYONE THAT HAS HELPED HIM OUT AND KEEP ON THANKING FOR THE CONSTANT WORK ON IT.

Now when i looked at it, i was super lost because so much information got me confused. Therefore, I will make it a little easier for you guys. This works on any android phone that is rooted (I am not sure if it works on stock rom) and works on GB and ICS.

Here are all the files. I will tell you the sequencing.

+ Make sure you only have one launcher installed. It optimizes that launcher with the memory for maximum speed and stability

*Go to the Play Store and download SManager, which installs script files. If you cannot download it from Play Store, then side load it.

*Download the "SuperCharger_Starter_Kit_RC9.zip" (no its not flash able. you have to extract it)

*Once it is downloaded, and extracted, given if you are in a computer, put the extracted folder onto your SD card. (If you are doing it on a phone, download the file from the link and extract it with your program of reference. I use Root Explorer)

*Then download “V6_SuperCharger_for_Android-Update9_RC10.sh.pdf” –This is not an actual PDF file. Do not open it with your PDF software as it will not work.

Put that file in the root of your SD card.

Go to SManager and look for the SuperCharger Starter Kit File. Once located, tap on StartMeUp.sh. A window should pop up and at the top it says Run. Before you hit the run button, make sure that SU Skull turns green. (Achieve green skull by tapping the skull)

Follow on screen instructions. It will show everything that it’s doing in text format. When it is done, you will notice.

Now go back and search for “V6_SuperCharger_for_Android-Update9_RC10.sh.pdf” using SManagaer and again, make sure the skull is green before running the script.

YOU DON’T HAVE TO HIT THE THANKS BUTTON UNDER ME IF YOU DON’T WANT TO BUT DEFINITELY DO IT FOR zeppelinrox!

IF you still don’t get my instructions, there are videos on YouTube

Good find. About to try this out.

Anyone?

anyone tried it yet? I really wanna do this ... but its a quite lengthy process I would love to do it once some confirmed its working! :D
[LG Nitro HD] osmosizzz:
Go to the original thread. Many have done it. For our device we'll I will say that when an app wants to force close the script kicks in and you'll notice the app stay black for about 2 seconds and it opens. Haven't had any force closes except for maps. It does something weird. It says it fierce closes but it doesn't actually close

Installed it a few hours ago and it's running like a dream. I've got a few questions though... So I am running trebuchet on aopk milestone 6, from what I could understand from reading the script (which honestly is not much :-) ) is that for me to get the launcher tweaks I may need to do some additional steps? I may have just read it wrong, also should I run ''su'' ''sclean'' in the terminal every couple of days? Thanks and sorry... I'm not too savy with all of this so bear with me. Great find though!
[LG Nitro HD] osmosizzz:
I dont think you have to but do it to be safe. truthfully, I remember seeing those comands but there was so much going on i dont remeber them. i have run the scrip on twi different roms and it definitely manages memory correctly but im not too sure. ill have to find out more
[LG Nitro HD] stephensonbrady:
Thanks, I appreciate it. Still seems to be running great.
[LG Nitro HD] smartyenrique:
Thanks man! I am on it - I will provide my feedback soon :cowboy:
[LG Nitro HD] rani9990:
Wait, I'm getting a permission denied in smanager when running the supercharger u9rc10 file. I allowed smanager su and made sure the green skull was there. Any ideas?

Oh yeah, and I'm runnin cm10, but that shouldnt affect anything bcuz this is supposed to work on jb.

And also, the script runs if I don't put it as root, but gives me all the errors like not running as root. If I try runnin as root , it shows up with permission denied before even running the script!

I'm not sure but if you look at the original thread where everything is, they say to follow post number 2 for ics and jb.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 1Android:
I am LOVING my battery life!!! I keep seeing people gating on the longevity but im not seeing it. Im not rooted yet and im still getting 18+ hours on an everyday basis.

Also seeing people talk about how their phone doesnt stay on 100%. My TB had that issue but my S3 will stay on 100% for an hour after being unplugged if i dont touch it. I havent found one thing to complain about with this device yet.

All notifications turned off except handcent sms. When im at home in the morning or evening i keep screen at 1% and 25% during the day. 45% if outside.

I have 4g turned off and 3g forced with "phone info" app. The only thing i cant figure out with this phone is turning off/on background data. After turning it back on after turning it off, my email errors out even though data is certainly on. So for now i just leave background data on. Im sure battery life would be even more impressive if i was able to figure this little bug out.

You loving or hating your battery life?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TheBiles:
Mine is pretty ridiculous compared to the Nexus. I'm easily getting over 2.5 hours screen time, and yesterday I was at 61% after 12 hours and an hour of screen time.

Edit: Currently at 90% after 5 hours off the charger today. Not much screen time, though.

I'm not very impressed with battery life...yet. I think I've got some sort of issue going on. My "Android System" entry is very high. Sometimes higher than screen. Anyone have any ideas as to what my problem is? Another note is that my phone is always warm to the touch, even with screen off, and nothing (intentionally) happening in the background.

My Verizon S3 is horrible. Even after a full wipe (x3) and custom clean rom and frozen apps that run as services.. Just sitting on my desk, it's bad.. 6 hours into the day and i'm down to 60%. Awesome phone, Samsung!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sage3:
I'm very impressed with my battery life. It is such a leap from my Inc. Yesterday I got 15 1/2 hours with 5 hours screen time! It was a really good day. Usually get around 12+ with around 4 screen time. Mine also stays on 100% for a little bit after charging. I have yet to root, and haven't really changed to many settings to help with battery life. So I'm pretty sure it can do even better!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fzammetti:
My battery life has been nothing short of amazing (my wife too, who got her SGS3 the same day as me). I haven't rooted, so just disabled a few apps and did some minor tuning of settings... the best example I can give is this past Saturday...

We drove 600 miles on a round-trip through three different states, a mixture of back roads, typical suburban areas and through two major cities, so in other words a good mix of connectivity, some roaming for sure included... I used the phone a fair bit throughout the day because we went to a family gathering, so there were quite a few pictures being taken with it and people playing with the "new hotness" of course... I played games for a bit on the ride (err, when my wife was driving at the time!), checked mail, Twitter and Facebook probably once or twice an hour on average (I know, I have no life), a little web surfing to look stuff up, played with S Voice for a few minutes, streamed some Pandora for a while and used GPS for a few minutes here and there. The WHOLE DAY I had wi-fi, GPS, mobile data, NFC and background sync turned on (only things turned off were bluetooth and LTE).

Phone came off the charger at 8am with 100% charge... By 9pm that night I JUST hit 50%! And by the time I finally went to bed at around 2am it was at right around 25% (because I read for an hour or so with it before falling asleep).

That, to me, is pretty freakin' phenomenal! The only time I ever saw comparable battery life was my Epic with the big, fat extended battery. And, again, this is 100% stock with minimal tuning and I'm not sacrificing any feature that I care anything about (I don't have all the motion gestures or face unlock or stay turned on for example because I can live without those just fine). I DO ensure that the apps I have installed are all completely well-behaved and I turn all off but a very small handful of push notifications, that's the sort of "tuning" I'm talking about.

So yeah, count me as completely ecstatic about my SGS3 battery life for sure :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] blackguy101:
Im NOT rooted or anything and running everything stock and every single day I have managed to get at the very least 4 hours of screen on time. I have brightness on 50% with wifi on and no airplane mode. Battery is amazing on this phone and I could not be loving it anymore.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] e_droid:
That's odd. No notifications running in the background or anything? I've been getting awesome battery life on mine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Elite49:
So it seems from this thread, non-rooted users are getting better battery over rooted?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dLo GSR:
my gf's verizon (100% stock) gs3 is ridiculous... 14 hours with 53% left and 2.5 hours of screen time. compared to my AT&T GS3 which is at the same level after 6 hours and 2 hours of screen.

a lot of it may also have to do with what networks you're on; i.e. my gf was on wifi all day whereas i was at work in/out of LTE/HSPA+.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidstyle:
in this thread it seems that way but read thru the other 100 threads about this same topic and you will the battery life increases after rooting and debloating. Im seeing anywhere from 21-27hrs battery life with around 4hrs screen on. Brightness 50% avg., wifi,data, and gps all on...no air plane mode!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fzammetti:
I wonder if it might be helpful to list off the apps we all have disabled (or removed entirely for rooted users)? Might be an interesting comparison point. Here's mine:

AllShare Controller

AllShare Play

ChatON

Dropbox (interestingly, I have two of them listed and disabled- everyone else?)

Email (replace with K9)

Exchange services

Flipboard (I prefer the plain old Google Reader app, believe it or not!)

Game Hub

Gmail (I use the web version)

Google Play Books

Google Play Movies

Google Play Music

* (the above three seem to get re-enabled after a reboot BTW so I always disable them again)

Google+

Kies Air

Media Hub

Messaging (replaced with Go SMS)

Music Hub

My files (replaced with ES File Explorer)

New Daemon(EUR)

Polaris Viewer 4.0 (replaced with Documents To Go)

S Planner widget

S Suggest

Samsung account

Samsung Apps

Samsung Push Service

SNS

Sprint Zone

Stock Dameon(EUR)

Tags

Talk

Wallet (another one that gets enabled again after a reboot)

Weather

Weather Daemon

Weather Main

Windy Weather

Yahoo! Finance

Yahoo! News

* (weather apps replaced with Beautiful Widgets and WeatherBug)

One other thing I just thought of: I'm using Go Launcher. Just in case TouchWiz is a power hog somehow :)

came from the thunderbolt also...

getting AMAZING battery life. (im not rooted, everything stock, didn't disable any apps.)

i got about 8 hours from the tbolt.

getting about 14 hours from s3. but the thing is... im getting the 14 hours using my phone freely! with my tbolt i was always concerned about using it up and was careful way too much. if i used the tbolt the way im using the s3, id probably get more like 5-6 hours.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Diversion:
Nothing running in the background - even using lowest brightness and power savings mode turned on.

Even when I was 100% stock, the battery was pretty terrible so I doubt there's an issue with the rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] simollie:
I'm pretty happy with mine. By the end of day yesterday it's 40% after 14 hours with just a little under 3 hours screen time. I'm on WiFi the first half of the day and on 4G the rest. Didn't seem to be much different if the 4G signal is decent. At work it seems drain a little faster without the screen on, I think due to the poor 4G signal here.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SightSeeker:
Yep I am loving this phone. It is getting double the battery life of my rezound which had the 2700 battery. I'm only losing 1% an hour on standby overnight. I don't have that feeling of - oh I want to play with my phone but I better not if I want to be able to use it in an emergency later.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Gimp_Ninja:
I'm also coming from a Thunderbolt, but I had the OEM extended battery (2750mAh), so for me the Galaxy S III is a little more constraining. The Thunderbolt with extended battery would last through a day (~16 hours) with moderate-heavy use.

The Galaxy S III will also last ~16 hours, but the use has to be closer to light-moderate (~3 hours screen on). I've got power saving mode on, I'm not using WiFi at all, and I'm running it completely stock and unrooted (but with some bloat disabled).

Overall, I'd say the battery life is decent. I am, however, looking forward to an OEM extended battery.
