What is considered a decent battery drain %/hr?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] talkingmonkeys:
Depends who tells you, me I don't let it drain at all. But thats thanks to my ktweaker settings. Screenoff to 486 mhz and noop scheduler. That and greenify keep mine to no drain. On bad days I wake up to maybe 2% gone after 6 hours.

Guess it works different for everyone but I don't use very many apps.

Like regular day usage if I'm at work and don't use my phone for a couple hours its still at the same percent.

Yes
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
No drain at all? IMPRESSIVE!

I will give Ktweaker and Ktoonz kernel a try.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] talkingmonkeys:
Yea I'm just as amazed. Once the kernel settles it is awesome. Haven't tried dkp but I've heard good things too. Why fix what isn't broken though when kt747 runs this good. Sometimes it drains more but that seems to be when I dont have play services greenified. (I convert that to a user app also so I can do that) think thats the big secret
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
Does Greenifying play services limit you in any way?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] talkingmonkeys:
It just stops gcm notifications that I've noticed. Anything you need it for it will come back and stay forever hence why I think it causes my drain. It's my most greenified thats for sure haha
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] NinetyNineNights:
You can also buy the donation package of greenify and as long as you have xposed framework installed you can use an experimental feature to still get gcm notification and greenify system apps if Google play services is a system app! :)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
I just flashed KToonz kernel and now my phone randomly reboots with the default settings. Did you also experience this behavior? Would you mind PMing me your KTweaker settings? I am overwhelmed by all of these settings and I have no clue about what any of them mean! :eek:

EDIT: Now my phone is freezing which it has never done on the stock kernel. I know each phone tolerates each kernel differently. I'm going to try dkp now and if I get freezing and random reboots, back to the stock kernel I go! I need stability over potential battery savings.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
Thank you! I was getting battery drain of 3-5%/hr. on idle with the stock kernel which I thought was decent. However, when [MENTION=5266065]talkingmonkeys[/MENTION] mentioned he was getting ZERO drain on idle, that got me curious to see if I could get closer to that. I imagine that would cause my battery to last a lot longer. I'm in the process of tuning DKP by following the video tutorial in that thread. We'll see what happens... :fingers-crossed:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] talkingmonkeys:
Sorry. I would try these. Just that should show an improvement. Some of the schedulers cause issues like that for me. Like bfq always reboots

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
No but the AROMA script did.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] NinetyNineNights:
You can also look through the ktweaker store in extras and try out some different settings! I'm currently running the "moonlight" setting and it works great
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
Do either of you undervolt? The dkp thread recommended -50mv per frequency. This is all new to me. :silly:

How can you tell if you chose a good scheduler and how do you compare schedulers against one another?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xCAVEMANx:
I was wondering if anyone else has had a problem with the camera stopping recording because the screen times out? I have tried going back to aroma and changing to the regular screen timeout instead of the CRT... but the CRT animation remains. I have the stock camera. I really don't want to do a full wipe again as everything is set up the way I like and everything else in this ROM is stellar... Absolutely top notch.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
No problems with camera (Note 3). You can flash loserskater's CRT fix to remove or change that animation on the fly without rebooting.

Extra Settings > CRT Effect

I was undervolted -125 across the cpu and -25 on the gpu (wouldn't recommend to everyone but it worked for me great) Now I sit at -100 across the cpu. Everything works great for me but it may work badly for some. -50 should be no issues.

Look through the dkp thread and I'm sure he explains somewhere what his governors and schedulers do. Think thats where they're explained for ktoonsez rom is in the thread for it too. Or he links to it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xCAVEMANx:
No CRT effect under extra settings.

Going to try the CRT fix... Missed that in the thread... Would be awesome if posts related to certain "issues" (problems not with the ROM per se but with certain configurations) were all in the front of the thread like a sub op. Thanks guys for the quick reply. How do you like the Note 3 camera vs the stock? I could care less about the hard button configuration... What other features made you go with that over stock?

---------- Post added at 10:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:20 PM ----------

Thanks for the heads up in the CRT fix... Hope that makes its way into the next version. However it did nothing to solve the screen timing out during video recording. I am using the stock camera and have always used it and have never had this problem until right now with this ROM. Try to record video at the interval you have set for the screen to timeout it will and will shut down the video recording as well. Previously the stock camera would override the time out function... It appears that this ability is not functioning, at least in my case...or is not functioning at all. If you all could test your video recording, and let it record past your screen timeout interval that would be great. I am just trying to pinpoint where the problem is. Also, what is the difference between the cameras? Anything besides the volume up and down functionality? Thanks in advance.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] loserskater:
The keyboard issue is a known issue with all 4.1 version of android. It's a way the system handles keyboards at boot. Purchased keyboards are stored in another location than standard (free) apks and when the system requests a keyboard that location where paid apps are stored may or may not have been loaded into the system yet. Apparently it's fixed in 4.2 but as of now there's really nothing we can do about that.

Light flow is known to cause issues on our device. Also, reboots are hard to pin down because you can't get any of the info that would have caused it (like a logcat) so unless it's something you can reproduce regularly there's really nothing we can do.

I know that this post doesn't solve your issue, but it just so happens that those are two issues we can't do anything about. Sorry!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] imonandroid:
It doesn't solve my issues, no, but it definitely explains them! Swype beta stayed put, while the new one I purchased through play store keeps changing.

I know I mentioned it before, but I'm not sure if it got overlooked, but is there any way to link Rington and Notification volumes? I seem to remember loserrom having this functionality?

And finally, is there anyway to remove the audio boost put in place? Its a little obnoxious....
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Duyo:
try light manager. working great here
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] enewman17:
Like Loser said it the new Playstore version of Swype and Swiftkey are now installed as an encrypted asec format. in the data/app.asec This is why it is not loaded during boot. The phone or system can not make changes to these encrypted files. Nothing we can do. The beta is still installed as an app in the data/app so it's loaded during boot.

The linked volumes we lost in the official JB update.

Remove Volume Boost, BTW it was an option in the AROMA you must have accidentally selected it.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cdjaney:
I had the same problem. I may be wrong but, I think I fixed it on my end.

It stays selected as my default now. :thumbup:

I know each camera has a few different features but I use them all the same. I just picked the Note 3 camera in AROMA because I hadn't used it before. It looks just like the stock camera to me and I have no issues recording past the screen time out setting. It's working well.

Just a quick look at no drain for me on kt747. I'd show where its at now but its really nothing special because I listened to music off tunein at work with the screen off for 4 hours. Anyway still have 50% left with that and an hour screen on.

I always got pretty good battery life off stock kernels also but it doesn't compare when you find the settings that fit your phone and use in kt or dkp.

Also I had turned wifi off but sometimes if I leave it on still no drain. I love ktoonsez kernel and erin and jasons rom. On a good day I can get over 5 hours screen on time easily. My phone never dies before my day is over :silly:

Today I flashed this ROM to my S3 i747.

I found that the USB tethering works fine, but Wifi tethering does not work (other PC/phone/ipad could go to this Wifi hot spots, but could go no where. it seems that they could not go to internet after Wifi tethering).

I also tested bluetooth tethering, no luck at all.

Are these known issues? or only I got these issues? Sorry i could not go through all 3000+ threads.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
Bluetooth tethering is confirmed BROKEN.

Wifi tethering works well. I'm using it right now to respond to your message. However, it does take a few minutes to establish full internet connectivity. My connection showed "limited access" for a few minutes until internet connectivity was achieved. Just be patient with this one.

Not sure mine would work so great for everyone especially since I'm undervolted -100mv across the cpu. I've been trying to tweak them to get my battery charging properly but not sure if its just the cable going bad. Pretty sure its my cable and not anything to do with this but I could understand how it would make it charge slower.

I have the stock battery. I would suggest trying ktoonsez settings. They never failed me. cfq is also a pretty good scheduler. I've been using that lately instead of row.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
I truly hope you are not one of those people who disables everything that makes the phone useful to extend battery life eg. Data, Bluetooth, GPS, WiFi, Email, Phone Radio, 5% Screen Brightness, etc. :silly:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] talkingmonkeys:
Most of that stuff or leaving it on doesn't make the phone any more useful for me. I turn off Data, Bluetooth, Wifi when not in use. GPS, Sync and email have no use to me. I don't ever have anything worth looking at in my email so I check it the old fashion way in a browser haha. Never turn my radio off even when I sleep (screen timeout settings in ktoonsez kernel seems to keep the drain from that low enough and if a call or message comes in I don't miss it). As for brightness I just use the touchwiz autobrightness. I tried lux but it seems to just give me worse battery life trying to work harder to make the screen darker.

Everybody uses their devices differently and I mostly use it to listen to music, browse the internet, watch videos off youtube netflix etc, but most of all for calls and messages. Sorry I didn't mention that but I did tell you I greenify one of the most important apps (gmscore google play services).

I also debloat A LOT that I don't use and greenify things to stop notifications like on facebook (because its not that important to me if people don't text or call me) :silly:

Should of mentioned I do go a little nuts on it but regardless you guys should get an improvement. I've been trying to convince myself of using more features also but I just don't need it in my life.

Maybe even turning off networks, sync, gps while you sleep would help those of you getting crazy drain?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] talkingmonkeys:
I blame the LG Nitro HD for putting me into battery saving. Even using it how I do I wouldn't trade this phone for anything (well maybe an s4 or moto x).

I like being in a position where I use it for way less than most do. Means I have room to grow into it instead of getting tired of it and wanting to buy a new one for more. ;) Plus finding new little things I actually like to use like voice search was for me is always fun. I avoided that like the plague for at least 6 months...

I would of been perfectly happy with a lesser device but to pass up a GS3 for $100 I'd of been crazy. I don't regret it at all because I've learned so much about android thanks to using it and these forums. I'm one of those that will probably stick with the same device until it breaks too. :cowboy:
