So in the last 30 minutes I have 8 minute 28s worth of wakelock from bam_dmux_wakelock under kernel wakelock, is that excessive? Not sure how to read this

also, i have 4 minutes of screen on but 14 minutes awake?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BlueCross:
What is he best way to return to the stock kernel? Simply reflash the zip file?

And then re theme? ! Noooooooooo.

OKAY WE GET IT YOUR BATTERY SUCKS!! No offense but you complain about your battery this, your battery that about every 5th post... why don't you just move on already, maybe go get yourself an iphone so you can't even flash all these cool ROMs and complain.

And to answer your question so this isn't just a post of ranting, I don't even see bam_dmux_wakelock as one of the items waking my phone... Odin back to stock and start fresh!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DroidHam:
You need to chill the **** out, someone told me to try better battery stats so im posting my results. I want to resolve the issues im facing, isnt that what this is for?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
I'm just reading your one post but sometimes I get frustrated with such battery issues, that I just say screw it an reflash. I know that doesn't solve your issue but if you back up apps an data, it can be a quick fix.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ULEWZ:
As much as I wanted to love this JB rom, I am forced to revert back to 2.1 where I got fantastic battery life. Not great with this rom. Down to 83% in one hour by just checking the news with the brightness slider 1/4 from the left (very low). Is this the correct place to ask about reverting using TIBU and will TIBU revert the radio and such required for this rom?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jcurley:
People having bad battery life, did you flash the new radio/modem?

This could be your issue. I flashed the newest radio and I kept getting stuck in 3g, which can kill your battery. I went back to the first jb radio release. It works better for me.

Also, check your cpu spy and see if it is going into deep sleep.

There are steps you must take to figure out battery issues. Please try those steps. Then list the steps you took. Just saying "battery life is not good" cannot help anyone and no one can help you.

There has to be something you are running or doing, no one else is and that is why you have this issue that no one else does. Are you stuck in 3g, do you have wifi on with no wifi available, is your gps on, are you updating your weather or email every 10 seconds. Are you texting or emailing a lot?

I have magic jack sucking my battery dry, but I use it for work, gives me voip on wifi and cell. But it kills my battery, fast.

Don't know why someone wastes a post to yell about someone trying to figure out battery drain. Anyway, I also see the bam_dmux_wakelock. I found this that attempts to understand that wakelock.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1811365

And for me on stock kernel I am getting about 2% battery drain per hour overnight with wifi on. It does go "awake" throughout the night I assume for emails. But 2% isn't bad for stock. I tried the ktoonz kernel and it was fine but that kernel isn't straight from the TW JB source, is it?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Character Zero:
Anyway, we already have settings toggles in the pulldown (actually better since you don't have to pull down a separate shade, IMO). And multi-user support is meh for me. I am the only one that uses the phone anyway. I want to see some TW stuff get ported to the S3 like Multi-Window. Android just seems to be polishing up JB which is pretty nice as 4.1 anyway.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TeeX2.0:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] g-funkster:
Folks, I'm stuck on 3G almost 90% of the time with this rom. Can anyone assist? I had 4G for a few hours earlier today, but now it's back to 3G. This wasn't the case prior on my ICS Beans v1.

I flashed Cleanrom 4.5, the VRBLJ1 RPM and Radio then factory reset. I switched to the HE radio earlier today, got that's when I got the 4G back, but now it's 3G again for the last few hours. Reboots/Airplane mode not helping.

I'm in the NYC area if that matters, very good 4G coverage generally.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jbdan:
Have you called vzw to see if there are issues in your area?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tedescop:
I've been running CR4.5 for a few days now flawlessly. Today I have media server usage through the roof. I haven't made any changes but its now awake for 5hrs 32min, anyone know what would cause this?

EDIT: Could a faulty SD card cause this?

Thanks in advance
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bobloblaw1:
It could. Was the card unmounted or removed?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jbdan:
Sure could. So could just a single corrupt file/pic from what I've read. Why don't you try backing up the sdcard to your pc, formatting it (FAT32), and see what that does for ya

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NotATreoFan:
I spent nearly all of Saturday night in 3G down in South Jersey. Verizon must have been having LTE issues because my friend's Razr Maxx was also stuck in 3G.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rruready:
Booo. I had to go back to 4.0 for now. I use gps constantly for work and for some reason my phone was getting really confused about which direction I was heading in while on CR 4.5. My navigation arrow would just turn around sporadically or turn onto random streets while I was driving strait. Any one else having gps issues?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] y2jasper:
well that was kind of freaky. i was just using the google now a bit, and then i locked my phone. when i unlocked it again (swipe screen), the screen started going crazy. it kept distorting and then repeating the same image across the whole screen bu then it would go back to normal, and thne mess up again even after the unlock screen..i dont describe it very well but basically it looked bad. i restarted the phone and now its fine, tried to recreate the issue but wasnt able to, so hopefully it was some random glitch

Has anyone with this issue tried reprovisioning the internal SD card? Whenever I come from CM10 to stock tw, I have to dial *2767*3885# to get 4G back, otherwise I either roam or get stuck with 3G, as a warning it wipes the SD card if anyone wants to give it a shot. I would but I just flashed CM10 for my AOSP fix :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dukins:
Arrrrrrrgh probably not what you want to hear, but I too had GPS issues. I had to completely return to stock, re-root, then add clean rom back and magically it started working again. This completely wipes your internal data, pics, whatever you have saved there so be warned. :crying:

Reflow text

Does this reflow the text in the browser after pinch zoom? Or at least can I double-tap after zooming in to get text reflow? This is the biggest dealbreaker item for me on any rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bobloblaw1:
Did you try Browser>settings>advanced >auto fit pages?

There are also some settings to control text size and zoom under accessibility.

Otherwise I'm pretty sure chrome does this as do other browsers.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tedescop:
Well it took Almost 2hrs for a full format on my pc (32gb card), and another 15 min to move everything back to the external sd card on the phone and all seems to be much better.

I guess it needed a clean slate. :D

This is a very nice ROM. Have been running it for a couple days. Battery life I am still running tests on, as I have been abnormally running it the past couple of days getting everything settled back like I had it before.

I did notice that there is a battery sucker under the list called Media. It has the downloads app logo, and from what I know relates to that. But why does it use so much battery? It is one of the main 3 users Media, Screen, and Android System.

Can someone tell me what this media is and how to make it use less battery?

Helpful as usual.

Using Gsam battery monitor, I have 39.7% from screen, 54.5% from apps (19.7 from Dolphin browser and 15.8% from lookout). I am running the latest modem and rpm for JB. Wifi on, but this never made a difference in the past. wakelock is at only 1.1%. I was running jetpack for Dolphin and have just uninstalled it. Thank you for your helpful post. I may try the early JB radio as suggested before I revert to 2.1.

This still cracks me up Linky
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Character Zero:
Anyone with wifi issues? Seems my S3 doesn't like my 5GHz network. Keeps disconnecting but will reconnect just fine. Disconnects when screen is off and I have the setting to not disconnect on screen off. But it works with my 2.4GHz just fine it looks like. No big deal, they are coming from the same router and the speed is good, just wondering if anyone has had issues with disconnects on 5GHz networks.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Scott:
I do what I can :highfive:

There is a download link in the OP. You just cant see it from TapaTalk. Thats why I hate tapatalk so much. If you browse on a PC or your web browser on phone you will see it. Its the big "DOWNLOAD!" icon. I just dont do direct downloads. It redirects you to the download page on my site. Tapatalk = fail with images.

Oh and as far as the flicker? Any other comments on that from anyone?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Scott:
Anyone coming from 1.3 to 2.0 I really would like you to chime in on a few things if you have a moment so I knwo which direction to go with 2.1.....

1. Is having the Google apps page worthwhile? Or would you prefer to leave it like 1.3 and force YouTube, Play Store and Gmail in?

2. What about smoothness / speed vs 1.3?

3. Flicker, the flicker I never saw, do you see it? If so is it with live wallpapers? And are you Running CRT down?

Please help me make the ROM better by answering those questions if you updated from 1.3.

Thanks!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] davidnc:
Just to update not to kick a dead horse ,lol . Just an update on what I found out . I did restore my backupand tapatalk worked again.

I do dig your Rom tho so back on it I just wanted to make sure it was not something I did when flashing your Rom ,which was from a clean install.

Seeing others reporting now I know more of the tapatalk issue.Thanks again for your Rom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] skiddingus:
I skipped from 1.0 to 2.0 but I have never seen the flicker on either. I am not using the CRT down but I wanted to. I skipped it after hearing rumors of a possible flicker. I personally don't see anything wrong with forcing Gmail, Play Store, Etc. How many people don't use these and those few can just freeze or remove with TiBu. 2.0 seems smooth to me using Nova but so was 1.0.

Hey Scott, just noticed something. I flashed imo's new kernel v0.3 that was posted today. I was setting up my phone from flashing this awesome rom earlier and was using SetCpu and saw that it had minimum speed 1026. Was that set by you in the Rom or did flashing the kernel do it? I have never had it set that high as a min.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Scott:
I have not made any changes to the throttle, goveners, or scaling on this ROM. Its all stock. I havent b egun to tune it yet.

So maybe check with kernel Dev. But I have heard a lot of great things about the kernel. I might try it out otnight.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Austin808:
This is a bug in SetCpu. The cpu is not running that fast. Rom toolbox fixed this issue recently. Also in Romtoolbox I still saw the higher speed in the slider, but the min speed was lower. When I went in the second time the slider was correct.

I think I figured out my battery issue. I have all of the check boxes under Location Services checked. I saw TONS of wake locks for Maps. I I disabled them all and battery's been much better. Is there a particular location setting I can use without killing battery?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Character Zero:
I usually only have Google Location services (the bottom one) because Google Now requires at least that one checked for some reason. And it seems my battery is pretty good, around 2% an hour idle. Although that was when i was having my 5GHz wireless network issues (I think it was dropping it during screen off possibly going to LTE) , I am going to see how good it is when I have only my 2.4GHz network connected.

Almost none of the Android browsers do a native pinch-n-zoom text auto-reflow since the Apple lawsuits (Chrome definitely doesn't). About the only thing available in the Android ecosystem is the double-tap to zoom in, double-tap to zoom out. But, you can only get the zoom at one level, and text auto-reflow doesn't happen.

Samsung provided a half-way implementation with their "Reading Mode", which doesn't work on all web pages.

However ...

Hi, appye - I have a solution for you that is ROM independent: Try the latest (12.1) Opera Mobile browser. It does text auto-reflow better than any other Android browser I have tried - past or present. And, it always will have the functionality, unless Apple goes after them (and wins).

You're welcome!:good:

Now, if only I could figure out how to get Flash working with Opera, I'll be golden ...
