How are ppl getting good battery life with TW roms?

I'm literally getting half of what I had with cm10...

I flashed this tw rom because I could not live with broken bluetooth audio...

God I miss my gnex... With stock Android...

I also have another issue.... Whenever the phone asks whether to use a certain application to open something.... There's once and phone..... I choose phone which I suppose it means always..? But it keeps asking the next time.... Any ideas?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aznwings:
I flashed the ktoonsez kernel and am on the ktoonservative governor with touch booster being 540Mhz and 594Mhz using this TW ROM. I also underclocked my phone to min processor speed being 94 MHz and max at 1512 MHz. Currently my phone has been up for 8 hours and 49 minutes with 79% battery life left (This is with little to moderate use). However, this is a HUGE improvement over the original 12 hour battery life with the original DG kernel that comes with this ROM.

However, I don't know if it is because of my low processor speeds or anything, but I completely lost signal. Could be a service problem in my area (AT&T). Will do cold reboot and add reply!

EDIT: Cold reboot fixed the signal... Anyone know a specific reason why I completely lost signal? I would like to keep my settings as they are because of the huge power savings.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] felchi80:
I tried those similar settings as you and the device kept getting warm with light usage.... So battery life wasn't great either. I'm now on this roms stock kernel and does not get as warm... Though battery still not anywhere as good as CM10.

I ordered the N4 today.... So hopefully get it within 4 weeks and I'll sell the s3 to cover the costs..... Back with stock Android!!!

Has anyone tried the dock feature. I just picked up an android ihome dock and it doesn't recognize it as being docked or output the audio
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aznwings:
The device has an AMOLED display and those do get warm often (mine also gets warm after light usage, but I still have pretty good battery life). Also, I forgot to mention that I disabled auto-sync with my Samsung account as it has a MAJOR drain on battery (battery life quadrupled). Just because the screen is getting warm doesn't mean that battery life is bad.

If you really want to test the battery life, you're going to have to test for a longer period of time and look at the HARD values. If ktoonservative kernel is not working for you, try SmartassV2. SmartassV2 used to offer the best battery life back when I had a HTC Desire. You can probably use the same settings I used and just change the governor to SmartassV2. Try using my governor again and recording the starting battery percentage and wait around an hour before you decide that my settings do not give you good enough battery life.

Also, you can download Battery Stats Pro and check your battery stats to see which apps are draining the most. Currently mine is Android system. 9 hours 32 minutes and still 71% battery life remaining.

There is no way that I can get good battery life and you cannot (assuming your whole device is not defective).

ROM was working great for me, now it is slowly beginning to deteriorate.

My phone will sometimes boot loop mostly after unplugging from the charger other times just randomly.

WiFi just acts crazy. Lately it has been disabling networks and telling me I'm not in range even when standing next to AP. A full restart or sometimes turning wifi on and off helps..

It would also become warm even when not in use.

my car stopped connecting to bluetooth music audio and just the phone so I have to enable that manually now.

My screen becomes unresponsive. Doesn't fully wake but LED turning on and off with the lock button while plugged in indicates that the device isn't fully frozen. :(

May try to reflash..

I had all of those problems u need to try miui rom its so much better than this crap .this rom is good for only like 4 days at the most than you'll notice problems and when i say problems i mean it. My screen flickered everytime i use it couldnt even bear to use it i almost through it out the window untill i found miui also notice this rom hasnt been updated in a while cause he knows its crap and he abandoned it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] louvass:
I beg to differ, I been running this ROM For 4 weeks without issues. Thanks for the hard work Drew.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ragz:
Have had none of the issues you post, and am glad your happy with miui, but as to your personal comments on this rom and dev you really need to pull your head out of your arse and show some respect for those that give and dont just take!

I wished the stock Web browser had Text Reflow for when I zoom in & out of a page........ Might have to go back to Dolphin...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] shoestar:
I just come from MIUI and while it is a great looking ROM, I have yet to find a stable port of it for our phone. They released a whole port that wouldn't even boot correctly as it kept force closing the Android system constantly. If you don't like this ROM, keep your negative comments to yourself. If you can do a better job, then have at it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kangi26:
I've been running this ROM for 2 weeks straight, and have not had a single issue with it, so I'd be more inclined to say it's user error, not a issue with the ROM development

If this ROM doesnt work for you go back to stock and don't complain. If you think you can do better then go for it! There is NO need to come in here and throw that crap around.

Take a look at one of the sound control apps in the market. (Cant think of any right now), that give you the option to increase gain. I use Power Amp for music, and it has it in the EQ. I'll try that tonight and see if it helps
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] likonvampire:
PowerAmp is what i use too , but have not tried it with this ROM . I reflashed task and ktoonsez , maybe should have tested.

Some sound control apps that i can think off are : volume+ or awesomebeats

Hello, would this ROM work for Rogers phones as well?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] vanisleguy1976:
Though your opinion is as important as anyone else's here at XDA, I'd appreciate it if you would refrain from flinging crap at the dev!

He's already stated (more than once) that he

has not abandoned us!

He has other projects besides the i747. He has a life outside XDA. He was traveling, and away from his computer. There are a multitude of reasons we haven't seen an update recently.

I, like many others, enjoy this ROM for its functionality, and use it as a daily. If you don't like it, you're free to explore the vast number of options available here. But please, don't make it personal. Don't insult devs. I've been around long enough to know that when you knock a dev around enough, you risk losing community contributors.

Let's keep it friendly!

Thanks Drew :)

This ROM wasn't users fault lol I only had Facebook and craigslist app installed and also tapatalk and it crash on its own .sometimes the music sounds like crap I would have to reboot for the bass to come back on and I can barely hear the ringtone when its in my pocket at full blast.when a call comes in I have to wait on til the screen stops flickering you will experience my problems I had this ROM for a month .
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ragz:
And you are free to use or not use any rom you please, try and use a little class when you are trashing someones hard work, like the saying do unto others, but I am guessing this will fall on deaf ears.

I am eagerly awaiting your rom to see if it meets expectations.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] tnosz:
That would be great if you can port 1.3 over to us.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] shoestar:
Like I said, you can technically just flash the T-Mobile port with the Ktz kernel and everything is okay.

I'm trying to build one that is already flashed with his kernel and the build.prop file is modified to show everything correctly.

I'm a little new to this, so I will try to have it uploaded by tomorrow. Thanks.

So, calling Drew's work "crap" is not bashing on him?

Also, I think that version 1.2 is already pretty stable. It is currently my daily driver and sure, I thought it wasn't stable at first, but it was fine after applying the Quick Fix as suggested on the front page. I did a little more tweaking and I feel like this ROM is just as good as any CM, AOKP, AOSP, or MIUI ROM (performance & battery life).

Only problem I have is with this Popup Browser...

But thanks Drew for the hard work. Can't wait for 1.3 to come.

Try booting into Recovery

Then clearing both Caches

Then Fix Permissions

Then reboot.....

Or DL the JB Cam App... Flash it then do the above then Reboot....

Or you can also DL the 4.2 JB Cam with the new 360 Panaramic feature... Just click the link

Let me know if there are any errors installing. I was going to include the multi view apks, but it still doesn't function properly. I'll see if I can somehow make it work. Thanks.

Edit: I'm working on multi-view, so I will see what I can do.

Edit: Got multi-view to come on, but fcs. This was as far as Drew had got with multi-view. I will try to figure out what it causing it to force close. Going to be a long day, but I'm addicted to working on this. Lol.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] paleman27:
Remember this ROM is AT&T Galaxy Note II ported. If you have AT&T this is your best bet. The 1.3 you guys are downloading is a T-Mobile port. If you want that just go with Milestone 7.

Don't get jammed on a version that is not of this particular ROM. On the other hand, if it works for you...well, great then.

This ROM has been good so far. A couple of app fc's every other day, but it's highly functional. I travelled with it and it has worked fine. However, I think it still has some ways to go.

Going to stick with it for a bit, but because the lack of fixes and updates, I'm growing a little impatient by the day. Can't wait until the release of the jb kernel source for AT&T's 747, then this forum is going to get flooded with awesome SGS3 ROM s. In the meantime this will have to do.
