[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Arthur Hucksake:
Since the JB update I have been trying to narrow down the culprit in battery drain that has cropped up. Going through better battery stats there was never a definitive clue as to the cause.

Tonight my phone has been off charge 3 hours and its drained 10% in battery sat on a shelf doing nothing, simply because WIFI was enabled.

One of the stand out features of this device was decent battery life up against comparable handsets, now that's been taken away from a shocking firmware update i'm considering jumping ship.

Has anyone else found any means of fixing this yet? Or just a case of waiting for Samsung?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] testadeferro:
Theres some threads talking about this.

I don´t feel that.I´ m on LJ5 build and sincethe LJ builds I´m very happy with battery drain, even sometimes I get 5 hours screen on with wifi on.

Maybe you update your phone from ICS and don´t wyped your data or made a fresh install. Try to do so and you should be happy again.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wmc90:
It's probably due to a dirty WiFi network that's smashing a bunch of multicast packets. Pretty much all the custom kernels available now have a patch to ignore multicast when screen off; otherwise you'll just have to wait for Samsung to realise they did something silly (read: never)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Arthur Hucksake:
That makes sense. Always the same with Samsung, takes them an age to get a new software update out and when they finally do it always comes at a cost.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XenomorphXx121:
My battery drain is less after settings in advanced to always on and changing the location settings and turning off notifications in some apps and also in play store.

Also in maps automatically update your location might be a battery drain.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeadSOL:
I've got a lot of battery drain with wifi on, too. Last night, my battery dropped from 29% to 0% (in 5-6 hours) with wifi on. I woke up to find that my battery had been depleted. UGH!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] testadeferro:
Must check what is draining your battery. I don t experience that... so far and from many android devices I ve the s3 is by far the battery frindly I have.

I i ve s2 and xperia neo dayly use and I'm happy. I use also some dirty wifi networks and don't have problems at all.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skivnit:
it's a known issue on latest JB rlses. Whats funny is that :

-The leaks did not have the wifi battery drain

- The wifi drains more Battery battery than 3G. I can have 3G on all the time the phone last up to 1d10hrs with 2hrs screen time
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] testadeferro:
I'm on the leaked version. But on lj5 I didn't experience that so far.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mannyAk47:
Iv had my galaxy s3 for 5 months now and i dont know if its just the Jellybean update but the battery drain when having wifi on is really bad im lucky to get 1 days usage with the phone , i got my google nexus4 yesterday and iv used wifi and data for most of the day and im now in day 2 my battery is at 44% and both batteries are same 2100mah

think im gonna sell my GS3 as the google nexus4 is so much better with battery , but before i do i will reflash stock jellybean on GS3 without root and run them both side by side to compare results , but so far GS3 battery is real bad for drain if i install juice defender on Nexus4 im sure i would get between 2-3 days usage with moderate usage

i will run my tests on both phones side by side with and without juice defender and try to show :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IntenseTorture:
I have had the same issue. Though the battery drain is not drastic, it certainly is more compared to ics. If you require better battery life then go back to ics and flash Aosp/Aokp roms
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skivnit:

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marc.knuckle:
hey guys.

initially when i tried to install 4.1.2 it kept giving errors so i found (on xda i believe) a modded zip that didnt do the google checks and it installed.

however, now that i try to install 4.2, firstly with the official update that it offered automatically and when that failed with a zip, all i get is the android on his back and a red exclamation. i believe that means i dont have the CWM installed anymore that i am sure i needed when i flashed 4.1.2 (i definitely didnt use my PC to do that update)

do i have to install CWM again? can it be done without ADB as i havent used it very much at all and not for a long time.

thanks
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marc.knuckle:
anyone?

the reason the question is different to some others and warrants a seperate thread is that the bootloader is already unlocked and the device is rooted yet i dont have CWM to flash the manual way.

whether auto update or manual it brings up the android with red exclamation mark.

This is a Repost from the general thread. I posted it there originally to get a little help from the community with my first attempt at making a nexus s firmware but it seems it would be more appropriate to move the thread here.

I've managed to take the GIT of android 4.2 and get it to compile with the crespo device tree from the 4.1.2 GIT repo with some minor modifications.

I currently have a GT9020A (fido canada network) and I'm currently running android 4.2 on it with my custom kernel.

Overall Changleog:

New Source tree added. Not my latest on the crespo source but it includes the crespo4g and also I linked my kernel image in the device tree

For those who don't check the website source is here: http://iamthedarkone.com/?page_id=179

Using the new apps package here makes a massive difference in how smooth the play store runs etc

ROMS SECTION

-Bluetooth is functioning

-Battery Drain issues Resolved

No current Stock Samsung kernel is available for this rom because I haven't had a chance to test bluetooth etc with the latest release

-I found an issue in my GPU code in the custom kernel. This patch increased performance significantly

Raducux. I think that should be easy to active, maybe something at build.prop? Google maybe wants this, remember that Google have put magnets sensor at the Nexus 7 for the hability to turn on screen with the open cover? And they never released some official acessorie like this to Nexus 7 because Apple has pattented this. Google doesn't allow multiple user at smartphone because Nokia has a patent for that, only on smartphones, not tablet.

That's probably the classic gps flaw that's been around since ICS. you can get around that by downloading a program like faster fix to correct it

Or you can do it manually:

1. Create a gps.conf file containing these:

NTP_SERVER=ca.pool.ntp.org <----- change this to the closest server to you

XTRA_SERVER_1=http://xtra1.gpsonextra.net/xtra.bin

XTRA_SERVER_2=http://xtra2.gpsonextra.net/xtra.bin

XTRA_SERVER_3=http://xtra3.gpsonextra.net/xtra.bin

SUPL_HOST=supl.google.com

SUPL_PORT=7276

2. Copy gps.conf in to your sdcard

3. With adb shell, run these commands:

su

remount rw

cat /sdcard/gps.conf > /system/etc/gps.conf

reboot
