After few battery cycles, I still have to keep my opinion of worse battery life sadly.

Just looking right now under battery settings, there seem to be many more "Google" things "Android OS (as it was before) Google Services, Android System, Tablet Idle, and Maps and Media server also seem to be taking up more battery.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bagpack:
Hello there, this is how one of my SGS3 looks like atm:

What happened is this:

1. Unboxed my SGS3

2. Rooted it

3. Installed CWM (Didnt create a backup with it because atm i didnt have another sd card to do it)

4. Installed Tsunami JB

5. Gave it to my wife

During that night the battery was getting depleeted and my wife got an "update available" message she clicked yes and forgot about it (battery -20%)

The next morning the phone was on factory mode and i didnt know how to take it out of it so i took it to a service center (non official [ there is none in my country])

6. The guy at the service center flahsed the stock rom again and the screen ended up like in the picture.

note: after the update, the phone lost the imei and the SN, I had no backup so "the guy" used "the box" to reinsert those

note 2: imei and SN are correct now.

note 3: "the guy" gave the phone back to me because he didnt know where to go from there.

WHAT SHOULD I DO TO GET MY PHONE TO NORMAL AGAIN?

Goto about phone then see the build number of your rom... Then go to the kernel list that I've mentioned you, and look for the kernel package which one match with your build number...

For example my build number is gingerbread.DDLC3 see the screen shot View attachment 1486277

Then I should flash DDLC3 kernel..

You're using PAC rom right? If yes then please try to flash the forvivo's kernel for jb version 14-11-2012. When i flash it, it changed the way my mounting system. Before flashing it, it just like what you posted. But after flash, it says that my sdcard is not mounted although it is mounted and there is a folder called sdcard0 and sdcard1 but when i looked into the vold.fstab there is nothing to be called sdcard0 and sdcard1. :confused:

Sorry for not replying earlier, i had school.

Note: i supercharged this rom and disabled cpu rendering. It runs smooth so you don't need this kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] reddvilzz:
Strange it is working for me. The stock kernel is drains battery very fast. In hard gaming my phone only can last 2 hours with stock kernel. With costum kernel it can last up to 3 / 4 hours playing sometimes 5 hours. Probably because the costum governors and schedulers. That's why i like using this kernel.

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] 7amada100:
From what i know, when i tried extracting cm10 to find if there are any difference between the vold.fstab(s). I found that in cm10, the internal sd is called sdcard0 and the external _sd is called sdcard1, which is different than the one in the PAC rom. I guess that could be the cause of the problem. Or maybe i'm completely wrong. Who knows :p

And btw i didn't came up with this i found it a long time ago and kept using it, then when i saw many people want swapping, so i thought i should share it with them.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] reddvilzz:
Yup confirmed that. PAC ROM vold.fstab contains external_SD and sdcard but in original cm10 it contains sdcard0 and sdcard1

I already tried to replace the vold.fstab in PAC ROM with the original cm10. Ended up in the ass wiping boot loop. So I go to cwm clear cache and the reboot again stuck in the android upgrading. What :eek::confused:

Maybe I should wait for the new release from camcory :beer:

Heloo Dear ,

Can u explain what this do exactly ? & how to use it ?

am using swapper 2 in my galaxy

What different ?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] iBlueee:
Thanks for your work as this is useful and easy to use!

IIRC, swapper is for more ram? This just makes your external sd card become your internal sd card and vice versa
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] 7amada100:
What:

As said above...This will swap the mount points you internal and external of which results in making the phone think that your internal sdcard "IS" your external one.

Why:

Our phone has a very limited internal storage and if you're like me, you need like 16+gb

So you buy a memory card and swap your sdcards to trick your phone and use it as your internal memory

How:

Follow the instructions in the first page
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] gdonanthony:
does swapping is one time process ? like root ? coz im flashing many ROMs i dont want to do many things after flashing ...

is it okay to swap using class10 32gig ext_sdcard ?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] K&Q:
Yes its a one time thing. But TAKE NOTE, u wil hav to re-swap if u reflash your ROM. And also everytime you install a new ROM hav to re-swap.

I think 32GB is ok.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] gdonanthony:
so its not one time thing .. i always reflash ROM coz im customizing the apps i nid and delete that i dont
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] 7amada100:
If you say that root is a one time thing, then this is too.

Every time you flash a Rom the root is removed, you don't notice it cuz the Rom has root built in and replaces the removed one.

You could just replace the vold.fstab from the Rom you have with the one here and the sdcards will be swapped every time you flash ;)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] gdonanthony:
+1 to this answer .. thanks

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] 7amada100:

For the love of android i will answer your question simply and completely. You have a built in sdcard, you also have an external sdcard which is the micro sdcard that you physically insert in the slot peovided. Swapping means making your external sdcard act as your internal sdcard, and vice versa. Will it make your rom unstable, no.

Swap is like pagefile in windows. Apps remains in the memory when you switch to another app. This is to facilitate multitasking. Meaning you can switch from one app to another while keeping the state they are in so that you wont have to exit and restart the app everytime. When you have more apps occupying the memory at the same time and its getting full, the system will move some of the memory pages to the swap. This way multitasking continues limited only to the size of your swap.

Do we need it in our phone? The answer is it depends on how much multitasking do you need. Personally, ive tried using swap for several months. But decided i don't really need it.

Someone talking about swapping sdcard, and other talking about swap ram. :D just funny

Why swapping scard?

Most of Sammy device included internal sdcard.

Some app is only detect those internal sdcard as external sdcard. In case you take photo using those app and want to saved to your sdcard. Swapping might help. Also it's will allow you to install large app data(some games have obb more than a giga). It's just swapping mount point. On windows it's just like changing drive letter.

Ram swap mean you make virtual memory like pagefile on windows. On Unix environment it's called swap. And this is not purpose of this thread I thought. ;)

[Sprint LG Optimus G] AdriVelazquez:
Hi All, Windows Only!

Since this hasn't been posted. Here's the steps to Root your device.

1. Install the LG driver. You're on your own with this one. Get it from LG Drivers

2. Download and unRar the attached file to your desktop.

3. On your phone, make sure USB debugging and allow unknown sources is checked.

4. Plug the phone into your computer, and make sure that Windows see the device's adb connection correctly.

5. Open the folder you extracted in step 2, and right click on the RootOptimusG.bat file. Choose Run as Administrator (If you're having trouble, don't run as admin)

6. You'll see this firs type the letter y, then enter.

7. When you see "Press any key to continue..." press any key.

8. You'll see it say "Restore my data" Look at your phone, tap the button that says " Restore my data".

The phone will reboot twice, be rooted, and ready for fun. To exit the DOS routine just press another key.

Here's the .bat script. Thanks to fiddy619 for translating.
