So I kinda fixed it. Am getting a replacement with rushed delivery. Heres how..http://androidforums.com/sprint-cricket-galaxy-s3-all-things-root/863456-bad-battery.html#post6676575 haha. Thats a good read. Anyways thanks for the tips. I made sure to never take the 4.3 update so I have no worries of knox. One thing.. does anyone know of a modem flashable for the l710? I am still on md4.. lol

I use to be involved heavily in the Verizon S3 forum for this until I upgraded to an LG G2. I recently got the G3; and since it has an unlocked bootloader, I recently flashed a new kernel to it. I came here to look up some of the old info that we use to share to get some basic ideas to start tweaking the kernel settings and had no clue the newer Samsung phones do not have an unlocked bootloader. That is terribly sad. All in all, this group has been my best experience still to date. I'll never forget when we all went zero lemon to increase our daily use to weekly measurements on battery life. That was nuts. Lol.

DriveDroid Support

I'm looking for a d2spr TW 4.4 kernel which supports DriveDroid's CD-Rom patch.

Has this feature been implemented yet? Thank you!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
It might help to provide a link because I have no idea what you're talking about. There's only one custom kernel for TW 4.4 and that is ktoonsez's KT747 kernel, it's in Original Development. There are no TouchWiz kernel devs left, so I wouldn't expect any updates.

My ROMs: Wicked X & Wicked S5 Xperience
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fullydeveloped:
Thanks for the quick reply. This is XDA's DriveDroid thread, an app which allows a bootable partition to be created from free space, to be read by a PC - a great replacement for thumb drives!

The patch code is located at this github page, the link is from the bottom of the original post.

I realize the TW kernel is outdated, and that the AOSP BMS Kernel includes the patch, but this is simply the circumstance - perhaps the patch can be easily added to KT747?

At times I also noticed things were a little choppy with his last governor settings. Under developer settings, disable HW overlays and check force GPU rendering, this puts more load on the GPU. If this doesn't make things smooth, try his build prop tweaks posted a couple pages back. After a reboot you will need to go back and check disable HW overlays, there is no fix to make HW overlays stick when rebooting, has to be done manually after each reboot.

My phone is smooth after those tweaks. Great battery life, do you have an extended battery?

Cool yeah governor one i think ill nickname 75 95 is performance oriented as core two stays active until idle but keeps total mhz low. Second governor 65 99 keeps low mhz too but doesn't drop mhz too fast to keep load steady and finish a task at a faster mhz to return to idle faster rather than forcing lower mhz early. This one cuts core two out more often and anytime load drops sudden, if its gradual you just see a small mhz drop or raise. This one being more battery oriented than 75 95 as that one is more performance oriented.

Given both can give lag when coming from idle 96mhz if anyone like the governor tunables but they seem laggy when you first touch phone but not once you start using it its because it needed to get to the target range of mhz. Guys want to circumvent that use a higher minimum mhz or set touch boost. I found if i was to use touch boost 384 first one and 486 mhz second one worked good. I dont use it since by the next press or action on my phone its on the target frequencies already.

Feel free to let us know what did well for you. If you fond them good over time maybe Galaxyman will add them to the original post. My second newer settings were a result of wanting lower mhz in medium loads more so than my first settings. I see lower than my first one when playing like Nova 3 and stuff, when its not loading the level playing along mhz seems to balance out well. Thats the reason though that the second set will be more laggy than the first setup.

Guys if you want something between my first and second just set hotplug down higher on my first setup tunables. Maybe 35-45!?

High five guys! Good! We are all contributing great stuff and keep it coming.

Crazymook i tested on toutube videos and found no probs. I would like to test whats going on. Did you play direct from a video file? What movie app are you using to play it. No rush but if i can ise same thing I might be able to see it happen too.

I can confirm this is happening too. When using the stock video player after 5sec it will freeze. if you touch it will resume play. audio seems to stay on while video freezes. in browser video play seems to shudder too not freeze but skip.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mw86:
Okay should be simple to figure which one is issue likely we need one if the above tweaks to be excluded on Touchwiz. I am on AOSP build the one in my signature PAC. Its android 4.1.2 and Touchwiz is 4.1.1. Can you too post you build info? Rom,kernel?

Here is mine.

First you've determined not using the hwoverlay option that doesn't happen. I used that quickpic app and my stock player and no issues from a video file i just recorded from my camera. I also tried varying the screen timeout options but none of them cause that effect the screen stays on. So if your not using anything fancy both of you unlikely a third party app is the cause. So if my thoughts are correct and the difference is you both are on touchwiz lets try this. Leave the hwoverlay on but change back for you two on touchwiz one if the build props. Pic shown below set it back to this value. Let us know if this resolves the issue as the hwoverlay option when its working does helps make even more use of the built in gpu and relieve strain on cpu.

Hopefully this is the one causing the weird behavior. If it is Galaxyman will need to add the section i posted up top with a note about touchwiz on the one build prop and or in any case ill make a note on my post above too. If this doesn't solve this whomever leave the hwoverlay option unchecked and maybe one of you can continue debugging it with us till solved. This is me still thinking you guys are on Touchwiz. Thanks for reporting the issue and the fix you figured out Crazymook.

Edit:

**********

Make sure to reboot to see if the debug.mdpcomp.maxlayer to 3 default helps fix the issue seen

This is what I have frozen. I've deleted a lot, next time sac updates his Rom I'll clean install, freeze every thing post those shots, will include things I've simply uninstalled

I run Swype, so I yank out all other keyboards. Samsung's keyboard drains battery even when not in use, and when you only use one keyboard is unneeded. I've yet to use any Samsung services so I yank Samsung account and a lot of things that end with test can be gotten rid of.

As far as that seeder program goes I had to download v5 and flash that in recovery to get it to work. Terminal didn't see it running otherwise. So I've got v5 going right now, had the apk also but that didn't seem to be doing anything either

Let us know how it goes. The terminal install of v6 went fine for me. Extract as the folder is and not by the zips file name. Place install directly on internal sd card like one would do to flash CWM from terminal. The command to install must be over the one line... On mobile it looks like two. If install directory dissappears it should have worked. So far pretty smooth with seeder. Seems the suggestions in the thread to change the two systctrl settings helps keep the entropy value at max.

After following the thread. My battery life cut in half. 8 hours or less. I followed everything perfectly. I do get the CPU Govenor does not match current error when I start KTweaker. Did I miss something there?

It says to use Rom Toolbox. Then it says note, the easier way is a file explorer. If I just did it in File Explorer do I have to worry about Rom Toolbox at all?

Thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] GTOJim:
I don't use File Explorer so I can't offer advice with it. mw86 came up with an I/O tweak that has helped with making the settings stick. The popups happen because mw86's tweaks are so far off of default settings. The I/O tweaks for some users, myself included did the trick, didn't need to use rom toolbox to help make the settings stick.

See post #310 for I/O tweaks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] awillis111:
Just wanted to thank mw86, castle_bravo, galaxys3man30, and GTOJim for all the tips
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] castle_bravo:
Reboot your phone, Go in to Rom tool box before anything and make sure the governor settings match the settings in ktweaker, if not, make em. I had a problem I didn't notice for a while and that was min max was different and that was because Rom toolbox had it set to stock and set at boot. When you say use file explorer you mean for renaming files right? Then yes, if you have no need for Rom toolbox then get rid of it, it likes to conflict with ktweaker, I use es explorer even though some people say it messes with permissions I've never seen it happen. And after all these tweaks you have worse battery life? Do a full charge run it down to like 10% then post your wake locks and main battery stats, let's see if we can get you 1 day plus.

You guys are awesome. Made the changes and tweaks yesterday and my battery life and performance was instantly amazing.

Thanks mw86 and everyone else who has provided tips and hours of dedication to this phone to make it as awesome as it is.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] chrischoi:
Got it! I saw a handful of pages back, someone had stated my issue.

When the phone is off. Not completely off but sleep, it's fine. Seems to sip of battery.

As soon as I turn it on, do anything... whether it's check time or send text it seems to drain rapidly. Anything simple.

Someone had posted and I did not see a resolution. Is that normal?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] GTOJim:
What have you done do far, changed voltage settings, renamed the files listed in the OP? More information might help.

Ok just read back a few pages, you stated you did everything perfectly but battery drain is worse. Have your renamed the files listed in the OP. Also if you could try an app called rescan media root, it can stop media scanner from running eating up battery if you have a lot of video or music on your device.

Using the tweaks in the OP should make battery life better, not worse
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] chrischoi:
Renamed 5 files. The ones in the first post and smd and smdexe or something along those lines.

Undervolted

Ktoonsnative Gov

I/O Tweaks

Fixed permissions.

I/O = bfq

The other tweaks which you had directed me to around post #310. Made me change them off the original OP tweak values.

Randomly the does not match error message went away. Don't think I've change anything since them. Even after fixed perm and multiple resets it still remained.

Should I have something set for Screen Off Profile or leave at set scaling max?

Any recommended settings for Touch Booster 1 and 2?

I just charged back up to 100%. I'll get a BBS dump and screens. Seems like my options in BSS are different than what was originally there. Also different from screen shots from before.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] galaxys3man30:
Yes set off screen prfile to the governor you use and set scaling to 96mhz and turn off touch boost I touchy phone to much n I dont need the extra boost it just drain the battery n done right with everything esle so far
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] chrischoi:
So the auto match or selected governor settings have to be manually set. I see.

Basically don't rely on same as options.

I assume Bluetooth profile which I never use doesn't have to be set or set to 384?

Would you guys recommend Fast Charge?

I also read about the battery dying and not being able to charge. I think it was mentioned to be kernel related.

I let mine go to 0% and let it charge over night. The charging led did not turn on. Next morning it was still dead.

I put the battery into another phone for a couple seconds, took it out. Put it back in my phone and it worked. The battery was 100%.

It was crazy. Lol. Was this confirmed to be the kernel?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] galaxys3man30:
Yes assume it would work if set to same profile but I just set mine to the governor im using its just MO thats I think ktoonzs talked it in his thread about that settings I say look there for a more bettet answer n Bluetooth dont worry about it n fast charge thats only for car chargers n usb chargers really you to turn It on before you plug in ur car charger and when u want to charge with ur usb cord on ur computer it wont let you transfer files so if want to transfer files u have to turn off fast charge when doing so
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] GTOJim:
Regarding your battery issue it seems to be kernel related, so don't run it down to 0
