Browsed the internet, played games, setup my first bluetooth device, setup locations for my weather widget/clock and then cranked the brightness up to 100% and set the dim time to 10 min (which is max) and played around with the settings for a while, then ultimately just left the device alone for about an hour, messing with it every 10 min or so with the screen on max brightness to drain the battery so I could do another cycle. This is my first cycle with this rom.

Not quite, but I probably would have got better battery life like that.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] theboss23:
I actually had a really bad experience with battery life which ended up being a bad battery but in the process of finding that out I also learned a lot of things you can do to save battery. I plan to make a thread covering everything when I have the time but for now I'll give you a couple of tips that helped me a lot.

- Settings

I turned off motion, I have power saving on but I unticked the cpu limitation, I have brightness set to auto, and I have auto sync turned off.

- Lower CPU

I noticed that the rom is smooth whether it's at 1.5 or 1.2 so I keep it at 1.2 max and 594 min.

- CPU Sleeper

CPU Sleeper disables 1 of the CPU cores when your screen is off saving battery life.

- CPU Profiles

I use SetCPU for profiles and stuff like that, my main battery savers are the Power Saver profile which sets the max to 1 Ghz ,min to 384 Ghz, and govenor to powersave when battery goes below 40%. The second one is the Screen Off profile which sets the max to 594 and min to 384. Not sure if it works with CPU Sleeper making the 1 core that is enabled set to chosen frequencies but I would like to think that it does.

- Tasker

I use tasker to manage my data, wifi, gps, etc. so that it's only on when I need it on which saves me the trouble of changing the settings and saves me battery life.

Those are the main things that I did that gave me a noticeable increase in battery life but there are many more things as well.

I played bad piggies for like 10 min, and it ended up taking up 3%, you have to scroll to see it but it's on the list.

I myself actually had a lot of bad experiences with Ktoonz's kernel fc'ing and heat/battery issues so I run the stock kernel included with the rom which IMO is fast enough and better on battery.

You guys having trouble with ktoonz. I first use system tuner to change min/max initially to get ktoonz working. Then I use titanium backup to freeze system tuner. Seams to me like it helps a lot. I dont get any fc's after that and I keep my phone maxed at 2.1. Hope it helps some of you. And the others as was said a few posts back. Ktoonz just doesn't work for some people.

This is one issue I couldn't get rid of completely but it did get way better when I switched modems and flashed the rom over itself a couple of times. Were you using WiFi calling when it happened cause I'm pretty sure that's the only time I encountered that issue. The other quick fix was to hit the home button then pull down the notification bar and hit the end button then the call button then the end button again

Not bad, I'm using the new GNote2 Port and battery life is pretty good, although android system is raping my battery even with HW Overlay disabled.

Quick question. Does anyone know if there is a way to disable the brightness/color overlay on the lockscreen. When I have a black wallpaper set it shows up gray on the lockscreen. It does this with any picture i use. It is not the phones brightness, it has something to do with the lockscreen it's self. I'm going to decompile the apk and see what I can find, but if someone has a suggestion that would be great.

do full discharge cycles actually improve battery life?

From my experience it doesn't always improve it but it does help and usually will improve it when switching to a new rom.

It helps the ROM to settle in and get a feel for the actual battery life. So it should only improve as you cycle.

I can't seem to play any online games I enter the game and bam connection error. I could play online games on my s3 on stock like 15min ago. The browser and everything works, play store and all.

Just can't get any game to work tried nova 3, modern combat 3, asphalt 7, etc. Please fix this. Used like $40 on online type games.

and could you also add a option of over clocking phone to like 1690, like in v3
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] tgamble160:
Only thing I can think of for games is try checking or u checking disable hw overlays. Cause they should work I play nova 3 no problem. And there is an overclock option. Its ktoonz kernel. It is posted in the op. Not as stable as stock though. And truth be told this rom does not NEED overclocked. It will handle gaming no problem with the stock kernel.

I think everyone that has problems with their phone really needs to start being a little more proactive about figuring out their issues. Every issue that you have is not because of the ROM. There are a lot of other things to take into account.

This may just be me, but I wanted to see if anyone else is having issues with it, I'm on v4 at the moment and my wifi calling works great sometimes, but other times it'll randomly disconnect, then I get a reg error, and then it'll take forever to reconnect back for wifi calling.

If it's just me, then that's perfectly fine (I've been dirty flashing) but if it's not just me and those who have been doing clean installs are having issue, just wondering if there is a solution.

Some questions that appeared to be unanswered.

1. Does this ROM support use of ALLSHARE Cast Hub ? I purchased it so only want to use with compatible ROMS.

2. Are LED Notification lights remapped correctly ? Seems every app from lightflow to Handcent has issues with Galaxy S3 as every version is mapped differently.

Would love to know if this is resolved in the ROM.

Re: problems with wifi calling, I wonder if it's related to this:

If you search for 'Galaxy S3 wifi dropout' there are a rather alarming number of posts spanning from launch through now. From my reading on the topic yesterday, it doesn't seem to be fixed by any particular version of Android or modem (perhaps in a new kernel though?) and it might be a known issue that Samsung has acknowledged to some customers. There's some reports that going into the service menu via the dialer and turning off wifi sleep helps, but the setting is reset upon reboot... There are also reports that it might be a hardware problem...

Anyway, just food for thought. Maybe someone here has more info on this?

Thanks, I'll have to do some research and see if I can find any more information on it. I actually had been turning off wifi sleep but lately I haven't. That definitely could be the issue.

Also, I was wondering, if this IS the cause of it, DJ (or anyone else) can you write a script or something for on boot to turn wifi sleep off? It's not a big deal, but if it can be done automatically at boot, then it'd be great.

And for anyone that needs to know how to do this:

Open up Dialer

Type this in: *#0011#
