My S3 battery has been draining pretty fast since i installed an aokp rom called AOKP Android 4.2.1 ROM for AT&T Galaxy S3 SGH-I747

Is it normal for this rom? & also, does anyone know a aokp jellybean rom that has awesome battery life?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DarthDerron:
Battery life is usually user dependent. I had good battery Task's AOKP (if that's what you're talking about). Perhaps downloading BetterBatteryStats could help you find out what's draining so badly
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] bryancheung:
There is nothing major killing the battery. Do you recommend any roms that have good battery life for the i747 device?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DarthDerron:
Well, I suggest trying out different kernels, as that usually works out better for me than the one's packaged in the rom. So far LiquidSmooth Beta 2 has been the best for me. Also had good results with Task's AOKP and Illusion AOSP. However, YMMV.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] runehasa:
I prefer the AeonFlux JB rom
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] laserlight959:
Yes, that rom is a beast with excellent battery life and a stock-feel.

I know stats a generally user dependent.. however, people claim to get 3-4 hours screen on time... I can't ever get this and I feel like I run a lean phone... I maybe get 2.5 if I'm lucky... unless maybe if I stare at a black screen for 4 hours I might get 4 ;) any ideas on how people can get 4 hours with normal usage(again I know that is user dependant) or is this something where.. yeah anyone can get 4 hours.. try air plane mode and stock apps only.. no 'light' or 'heavy' games...
[HTC One X] rfgamaral:
I find it strange that I'm the only one with such preference but I'm picky that way... :p

I honestly hate the Holo blue in AOSP Android and as such I hate the fact that HTC swapped that nice green they had on ICS with the horrible baby blue on JB. Am I really the only one that prefers the green theme? It just fits Sense much better IMO and it's one of the reasons I've gone with HTC since I first bought my Hero...

Anyway, I'm here just making sure that someone didn't do stock green theme before getting my hands dirty... If there's one already, PLEASE let me know. I would really love to no waste my time creating something that's already out there. I couldn't find one, but I'm trying to make sure I didn't miss some thread...

By the way, assuming there really isn't one... How would you like such theme to be available? Do you hate the baby blue like myself and would enjoy such stock green theme?
[HTC One X] captaineos:
oh my god I thought I was me and my OCD! I hate the blue too! I've literally lost sleep over the blue. Especially when i see the lovely green in the phone app (for example) I wish I had the choice!

WILL PAY FOR ICS Green on JB:fingers-crossed:
[HTC One X] athulele:
Use Matte or Concrete skin...they have green.

For CM there are lot of green themes on the Play Store...

Hope I helped. :)

I searched the forums before creating this thread but found no suitable answers so I am creating this thread.

In terminal emulator I did the following

$su
#cat /proc/mtd
dev: size erasesize name
mtd0: 00100000 00020000 "misc"
mtd1: 00a00000 00020000 "recovery"
mtd2: 00500000 00020000 "boot"
mtd3: 0aa00000 00020000 "system"
mtd4: 00a00000 00020000 "cache"
mtd5: 0e0e0000 00020000 "userdata"
#

which equates to a flash.cfg file of

misc ya 1M
recovery rrecov|ro|nospr 10M recovery_leo.img
boot yboot|ro 5M
system ya 170M
cache ya 10M
userdata ya|asize|hr allsize

This means "userdata" is 224.5MB.

I am currently using aMAGLDR 1.13, TWRP 2.3.3.0 rev 6 and HyperDroid 6.1.0 on NAND and some NativeSD builds. I have a 32Gb class 6 SanDisk Ultra card iwth 30GB FAT32 and 2GB Ext4 partitions.

How do I determine, via TWRP, which partitions for which ROM need backing up? I could not find a post with a suitable explanation. I also backed up my NAND and I am sure it backed up the sd-ext partition which was huge. I believe that sd-ext contains the NativeSD ROMs.

So has my NAND backup effectively backed up NAND-system and NAND-data and sd-ext (for my Apps2SD stuff within HyperDroid) which is correct but also backed up in sd-ext the NativeSD ROMs as well? If so would this mean that if I restored my NAND backup that I would be effectively restoring ALL my NativeSD ROMs to the point when I took the NAND backup? If so this is dangerous. This is why I am trying to find an explanation of each type of ROM where its information "system, data, etc" are stored.

What I really want is for each ROM to be backed up in its own backup that can then be restored without affecting any of the other ROMs. If all NAND and NativeSD ROMs share a part of sd-ext then how does each one back up only its relevant bits?

Thanks

Darren .)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] kokotas:
Typically for a NAND Rom Backup someone would select:

boot

system

data

.android_secure

*sd-ext

*Optional - In case your NAND Rom uses any apps2sd method/script.

Correct. The sd-ext backup file contains your NativeSD Roms too.

Correct again.

The way TWRP works now, it's not possible to do what you want in a simple way.

What is possible is to use TWRP's built-in NativeSD Manager and backup each NativeSD Rom separately.

Then delete each NativeSD Rom using the NativeSD Manager.

Then backup your NAND Rom as I wrote above.

Then restore each NativeSD Rom's backup with NativeSD Manager.

Anyway, you just gave me an idea..

Regards!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] DarrenNewsgroup:
Thanks for the answers. I did the right thing and put this in the Q&A thread and waited. Why does waiting always seem to take forever (not a dig at you)?

Now I know that my understanding was correct can I make some suggestions?

I appreciate that this would only apply to new build of ROMs however, could ROMs create a file that described which partitions they use to store information on? In this way TWRP could know which things to backup. This should solve the DataOnExt issues that people are having on the Dev thread and also solve my problem. If we got a standard approach it would be possible for a user (only one per ROM configuration) to create the necessary file. Note, as each ROM now comes with different options (Native SD, Apps2SD, DataOnExt, NAND) these would all require different descriptions within the same file.

I am not sure of the exact working of this idea but the aim is to allow the recovery to back up each ROOM separately and only back up what is necessary.

@kokotas - hopefully YOU get the point of what I am saying even if I can't properly describe it in the correct terms.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xterminater07:
Is it just me or is the volume button configured backward on the nexus 10? If you hold the nexus 10 vertically, the top button turns down the volume and the bottom button turns up the volume? If you hold the nexus horizontal like it should be hold, it kinda make sense the right button increases the volume and the left button decreases the volume. I just found it odd because the iPad is the opposite.

Is this normal on the nexus 10?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MykalDre:
Yes its normal. Nexus 10 is made to be used mainly in landscape therefore the buttons are set up for landscape.

I guess if you are using an app that auto rotates clockwise then it would feel backwards but I usually rotate mine anti clockwise when I'm browsing in portrait anyway so I never actually noticed this.

To be fair though i often find that if I am picking up and putting down my nexus 10 I might go over an hour without realising its upside down so observation is not a strength. :D
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demusss:
It does depend on which way up you hold the nexus in portrait mode.

If the power button is at bottem left then the volume buttons are correct.

Maybe what should be happening is that the volume controls change over as you rotate the nexus. Therefore when the power button is top right the volume button nearest the power button would be volume up.

Would be awesome if the rocker switched when you went from landscape to portrait. So it is intuitive either way.

[LG Optimus G (International)] SkriblZz:
So I've got the E970 (AT&T's model) and it apparently does not light staying cooled down.

When doing modest gaming, and even surfing the web I get this lovely message:

"Unable to brighten more due to high temperature. Try again later."

That seems rather depressing. Considering the phone is great. The screen, that is wonderful and I like being able to have my screen maxed while charging or whenever. If the screen is pretty, I want to exploit that, after all. :P

One thing I've noticed, This thing is constantly sucking a gig of RAM, even when idle.

Anywho, has anyone else experienced the heat issue? This is the second phone I've received with the same issues. I'm trying all methods possible to keep it and fix this issue rather than just taking this one back again and getting a One X+

Seriously, any advice or direction would be pretty awesome.
[LG Optimus G (International)] gabby131:
IMHO, Heat should be normal for quad-core mobile devices. My Tegra 3 tablet, although all plastic, heats up when using. My LGOG does heat up in heavy use. The reason of the screen brightness threshold is to reduce the increase in temp. If you're rooted, you can also notice the clockspeed of the CPU cores are also decreased to 1.18gHz when it reach a certain temperature (about 40-50 degrees).

On another note, this should be posted in the Q&A Section :)
[LG Optimus G (International)] FadliOutcast:

[LG Optimus G (International)] latrotoxin1986:
My phone gives me this message on a regular basis, even under relatively light use. I'm glad that there are features implemented to protect the CPU and other hardware from overheating, but good grief, this gets rather annoying - rather quickly. I haven't paid too much attention to my OS and software to notice if I'm also burning a gig of RAM at all times, but that wouldn't be terribly surprising. I'm running a lot of background stuff, ADW Launcher EX, system monitors that I never check, custom lock screen, so on and so forth...

I will say that I didn't have a single heat warning until I rooted and unlocked the phone however. Perhaps it's completely unrelated as Gabby is saying the CPU will throttle on it's own in rooted devices, but just something I noticed. :confused:
[LG Optimus G (International)] SkriblZz:
Yeah, the phone can't even be used while charging without it overheating. I would love to just be able to stop it from dimming the screen. Quite honestly, is the screen being dimmed even helping with the heat that much? If I could just take that error away and not have to worry about the heat, I'd be fine, honestly.

Started with 'Foxhound cannot mount recovery command..' etc. Which made me decide to flash my 16gb pit file, and since then all attempts to flash back to stock stall at 'Nand write start'.
