This is looking a lot better. 1.4%/h, 95% deep sleep and 20min screen on (those cost an easy 3-5% of the 14% you lost).

Still there should me more to squeeze out on a airplane mode overnight, I just did the same (I forgot to connect the charger),

but with everything on

(WiFi is kept connected through BetterWiFiOnOff, so it was active all the time) and I lost about the same (14% between midnight and 10am, from 29%-15%), but with all on, including a full Titanium backup at 4am and a reminder this moring before I got up, both turning the screen on.

Yes , in fact, it's a low resolution.

We are fully OT and we know that mods are looking for OTs and are patiently and constantly cleaning this thread.

But let's try to be a little useful.

I can see that many people ask for the OP wallpaper and it's hard to find (because you don't know what to search for :) ), so

here is the wallpaper in the best resolution:

Hopefully after Samsung officially releases their 4.2 Touchwiz update, Netfix will make their app work.

I flashed the newest version of PA and i noticed something. Whenever I recive a SMS and i open the notification bar, the Reply/Read buttons don't show up. Also those settings are missing from the stock app's settings. Also, strip unicode is missing. Is it a feature of 4.2.2 or something that will be repaired ?

Unlock phone with right pin

Hello,

I am new to this ROM and I like it already as all seems to work really fine.

But (there always is a but :angel:) is there a way to unlock the phone immediately after you typed the right pin number.

I mean, now I have to type the number and click on the "enter" key to unlock the phone, but on (for example) "SlimBean ROM" there is a setting that after you typed the right pin, it unlocks without the need to click on the "enter" key.

Sorry if this is already addressed, I searched but could not find anything about it here.

Time zone from network

Hi guys and thanks for the awesome ROM and thanks to all the contributors to this thread - It's saved me a lot of experimenting to get PA working *almost* how I want.

And that 'almost' is this - Is anyone else experiencing their clock always defaulting to GMT, even though it's set to get the time zone from the network? If I get the date and time from the network and manually set the time zone it's working ok, but if I select the option for Automatic Time Zone it always switches to GMT. I'm on the Telstra network in Australia and should be in the GMT+10 time zone at the moment. If it's not a problem with the ROM, is there any logging I can look at to see what's coming from the network?

PS: I'm aware I can manually set the time zone, but I regularly travel to different time zones and it's extremely convenient to have the phone auto adjust as soon as I land.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dantheman122:

Unstable since 3.15

Hey there,

my workmate and I have the same problem with the newest update. We both have S3s and both 3.15 and both came from 3.10.

Apex is our selected launcher, since it fits our needs the best way....

We both have the same issue, especially when the device is going to deep sleep it seems.

If you try to wake up the phone it just stays black. You have to reboot the device with a long power button press. Sometimes you have to do this like 2 or 3 times, to get the phone to reboot.

Sometimes (more seldom) it freezes while being on the homescreen.

We tried to clear the cache and dalvik cache, as well as fix permissions... but it didn´t help at all....

Any ideas?

Freezing Consistently...

hey... so i was on 3.10, and my phone kept freezing, seemingly random. i had to keep taking the battery out to reset the phone (or long long press the power button). there was no real rhyme or reason to when it would freeze, but it was doing it every 10 minutes or so.

i flashed 3.15 (booting into CWM was easy, no problems) and the appropriate gapps. however it has not stopped the freezing... could this be a hardware issue? i havent been using a custom kernal and the freezing basically started yesterday and whilst it got better for a while with 3.15 it seems to be getting worse again. i tried to grab a logcat but it seemed like it stopped recording a while before the freeze happened... although im in no way an expert, so i can post it if the devs want to see. i have done a complete wipe, redownloaded the rom/gapps etc. what im asking is basically does this sound like a hardware dying issue or could it be rom related? im downloading oficial sammy firmware to flash and see if this stops the freezing... any help is appreciated!!

Hello,

First of all I would like to say this ROM is amazing. Never flashed a better rom.

The only problem I am having is battery drain. Has anyone else been having this problem? I am on 3.15. Kernel is stock cm which comes with it and baseband is xxella. I barely get a 6 hour battery life with less than 2 hour screen time. Sync and auto brightness is in while gps is off. I installed the rom 2 days ago so I'm guessing that's enough time for it to 'settle in'. Usually the biggest battery drainers (even more than screen time) is android os. Can someone please help me?

Flash temasek kernel, it is great for battery really, best 3g and wifi standby usage by far out there. Good performance too and tweakable via stweaks app.

Flash a more recent modem, like XXEMC2.

Modem + RIL collection can be found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2076857

Files are CWM/TWRP flashable. MC2 has been working great for me, battery/reception and Bluetooth wise that is. You can try it to flash other ones and try them for a few days to see the one that works best with your particular region/carrier.

Every modem should work world wide, as long as you flash a I9300 modem. Last time you flashed you probably flashed modem only, not modem+RIL like I linked above. You always need to have a matching RIL to the modem, otherwise you will run into issues.

I also suggest that you use the "Greenify" app, you can find it on the PlayStore. This app will make apps not in use sleep as to not waste battery/cpu cycles. Really great app.

For those not knowing what RIL is:

battery drain by "android os"

I really love this great rom but my battery life took a major hit...

At the battery usage the android os section drains the battery the most.

At bbs i can see the kernel locks are the cause

The top 3 kernel locks are:

Powermanagerservice 18%

MultiPdp 11%

"secril_fd-interface" 11%

I'M lost here, I've installed it 2 days ago and with low usage my battery drains in 10 hours as opposed to omega rom 30 hours.

The phone is in deep sleep for only 40% of the time (should be around 80%)

Any suggestions?

Well, this thread says, that those modems are Sammy 4.1 only. How can they work under aosp 4.2.2? :confused:

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ISilva_PT:
Yes, they work. You do not have any "4.2.2 modems" from sammy, sammy has yet to release any firmware based on 4.2.2, so no modem could be 4.2.2. But they are compatible and work just fine, they are what you are using at this very moment in PA.... :) Your current modem is from a <4.1 sammy firmware, PA firmwares do not contain any modem they just use whatever you had previusly (from sammy firmware).

You can choose the app's you want to greenify. Just don't greenify anything that you would want to be running all the time (app's that push stuff), if you do, greenify will make the apps sleep, so no notifications will be pushed of course since the app will be sleeping, example apps like the Facebook app, big battery hog.... allways pushing/syncing etc and running up cpu cycles! greenify will make it sleep when you are not actively using it.

Anyway everything is reversible you can greenify and un-greenify any given app at any given moment, no worries.

Have you installed BetterBatteryStats (BBS)? Without it you cannot know what is the reason for the drain! http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1179809

Install BBS, do a full charge and use your device as usual. You should also let the device sit without use for a couple of hours (unplugged) to see if it is entering deep sleep or or, and BBS will be able to track any partial wake locks what should not happen, and those will be the reason for the drain.

Do not use the GetRIL app. The modems in the thread I gave you already have the proper RIL in the package!!!! The GetRIL app is no good because it depends on being updated, something that does not happen frequently so it either cannot find a proper RIL or recommends the wrong one.....

Or you could flash temasek's kernel. Always puts the phone to deep sleep when screen is off. I get 17-18 hours battery life with 3-4 hours of screen time. Brightness is a tad less than half with auto sync on and gps off. Beautiful kernel never used anything better.
