That was the same thing that happened to me my first week of purchase. I'm on my second week and the battery life is way better. Install the app snapdragon battery guru and it will help save battery alot
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] the67ace:
hmm ill def try that app. do u by any chance live in and area with ample lte if u do do u notice any difference between 4g and 4g lte on ur battery. cus mines is usually on lte but it always randomly is swithcing to normal 4g and sometimes edge and i cant help but feel like thats whats causing the drain. i just came back from the gym (was on 4g) and i was listining to music on max and using voice to control it and litreally i lost no battery started with 40% ended with 40%. or im loosing my mind hah

My last charge got me 5.5 days with 2.5 hrs screen time. Wifi on 24/7, and my VoIP app. I'm a light user of course, but I can also get 6-7 hours screen time easily if I want. I simply don't use my phone that much. Search my posts in the Wicked thread for screen shots. Others have done very well also.

Wicked ROM v.1 w/Faux 4m_r3 kernel.

Look into BetterBatteryStats to learn about your battery, and what's eating it. Do LOTS of research. I did.

Oh and, don't use battery managers. They only hurt. If you only get 6-8 hours of battery something is seriously wrong, unless that's screen time, which I doubt. That would however be great.

Funny though. If others get 24+ hours idle, but you only get 6-8 hours, I don't get the comparison....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] androidsoccer:
I'm mostly at home because I'm on summer break, I'm only in 9th grade. I keep data off with a toggle I installed and wifi and power saver are always on. I don't see much difference on battery with lte and normal 4g. Just install the app and I ensure you that your battery life will be better.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] the67ace:
thanks i will try betterbatterystats and i have been scouring these and other forums. i did actually see ur stuff on wicked. with the idle thing i just meant that its misleading at least to me when people say they get 24+hrs of battery life in response to ppl having issues with battery life. because those 24 hours or more arnt of actual use, ur screen on time is probably 3-4 hours. obviously if ur not using a phone it should last a long time. when i get 6-8 hours i meant while actually using it not letting it do nothing forever. id constantly be on my s2 and idk if it had a screen on time chart but im sure mines would have consistently been upwards of 6hours

yea i got the snap dragon one it is in learning mode atm, i read great reviews on the play store so i am excited

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 191147:
Hello mates,i'm having an issue with my device,and i was told to ask here for help,first things first,I'm sorry if i'm breaking any rules,because this is a massive site/forum organization and I think i'm posting in the right place/section.

Okay,here's my issue,recently i've purchased a Samsung Galaxy S3 from some dude,and recently,i've decided to update it to 4.1.2 as i believe it is the official Samsung update. However,the previous owner seem to have done something to it and it says that it can't be updated because the status of the device is now modified. I've looked it up on youtube,and successfully "unrooted" it. After that i've restored the phone to it's factory settings,removing all my pictures,music and all data in general. However my device's condition remains Modified and unable to update. I was just wondering,how do i do that,without risking to break the device. Again,i don't care about the data on the device(none left) and I only want the official stuff from Samsung that is supposed to be safe. I apreciate any info on this matter and ask you to use simple words as i'm not a pro when it comes to phone software/os. Ty
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doddzy:
i have nearly the same problem

okay ive had my samsung galaxy s3 4g for about 4 months now and its a i9305 model, i came aross this rooting stuff on youtube and i thought i might give it ago seeming it looked cool so i tried to root my device, i did the root but it didnt work right cause i went too use a rooted app and my device wasnting rooted but it was modified and now i have no network or carrier it doesnt read my sim card...

i really need help if anyone has the answer please reply to my post! :(
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
The modified status is removed using an app "Triangle Away" BEFORE unrooting. Did the video mention that?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 191147:
No,just "SuperSU" for unrooting. Is your "Triangle Away" Safe?

Edit: After fully understanding your comment,what am i suppose to do now? Root it again,then use Triangle then unroot it? If it is of any meaning,I also have this "CWM" Icon that stayed after factory reset,and i've had it since i bought the phone,it looks like a settings button,but doesn't really fit in the other icons,full name is CWM Manager and i believe i was able to open it,but now says. "CWM Manager needs SuperUser access to function ! If you have SU Installed ,make sure CWM Manager is not blocked, then reboot and try again", i have SuperUserSU but when i try to open it is says "There is no SU binary installed and SuperSU cannot install it. This is a problem" Both of these apps worked before the unroot so i'm thinking it's connected somehow. Note:Don't need these 2 apps to work.just want android update :D
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scarface1991:
Well to get a fully Stock phone you can Root it, use Triangle Away like rootSU suggested to get the official Status back (also check Download mode), then Just flash a Stock Samsung Firmware via Odin. This will unroot your device since you are flashing the Stock Kernel with the Firmware. Afterwards you should have a unrooted Stock device with an official Status. Odin will also automatically Wipe your device`s Apps + Data.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 191147:
Okay mate,i was afraid i was gonna destroy my device,but i overcame that fear,and watched a tutorial on youtube on how to root your device,it had 96% positive feedback (based on likes) and i felt confident. But when i entered the odin mode on my device,shortly after the begining a problem occured. Do you know that orange box that is suppose to appear in Odin on your desktop? The one that says COM5 or something? Well,I didn't get that,it was just an empty white box like the other 4-5 boxes next to it. Apreciate answers :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scarface1991:
Well that could be a indication that you either don`t have the USB Drivers installed or that USB Debugging isn`t turned on on your device.

Do you have the latest version of Kies installed?

Turn on USB Debugging on your device if it`s turned off and try again.
[LG Optimus 2x] adaptech:
After i changed the digitizer and display the bootanimation doesn't show anymore.

I have to wait until startup has finished and press the power button a couple of times. Then it seems to work as it should.

Also if I boot into recovery it shows as it should.

Is the motherboard damaged, maybe the cheap display or is it maybe softwarerelated? I have tried several ROMs and the same thing always happen.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tele27:
hi,

I was about to root my s3 using the toolkit, i've been reading guides and stuff. I'm not new to rooting but do it just in case so that i don't take any wrong steps.

I've come across many threads where people have lost their imei after flashing roms. most of those threads were on us based carrier s3.

so just wanted to ask if international s3 - uk version is also prone to deleting its imei.. haha because i think i will avoid rooting if it is.

Battery life for me has been an issue since the start. I'm a heavy user so maybe rooting and installing another kernel, undervolting etc would give me few hours etc.

thanks :laugh:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Yes, just make sure you take an EFS backup. Losing IMEI is the least of the GT-i9300's problems ;)

Philz recovery does EFS backups. I recommend you use this recovery http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2002953

The wear levelling eMMC catastrophic failure bug in 0xf1 eMMC firmware, or SDS if you will.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SnowPluralism:
I knew you were going to say that ;)

And i agree

And it get me angry as hell since i have it ...

And sometimes i feel like ... "gonna try cm10.1" and then i remember that my phone can die at any time and i have to be on stock ... even they say they patched the bootloader and kernel with update 7 to fix the issue ... i dont feel safe even so ...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Glebun:
you're just as safe on stock as on CM. If there's any fix in the stock kernel - it's included in all custom kernels too
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SnowPluralism:
Yes but service center will see the red triangle since i have the new bootloader if he stucks on bootloop
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Glebun:
wait, wait, let me get this straight - you're a recognized contributor on xda but you're running a fully stock non-rooted phone without a custom recovery? really?

all the evidence points to the fact that the fix is in the kernel, not the bootloader, so you can downgrade the bootloader with a simple cwm flash
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SnowPluralism:
Helll no xDDDD !!!

Syah kernel rooted with syah modded cwm xD

And now everything about that :) i just prefer to play safe until its prooven that sds is "fixed"
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Glebun:
phew :)

but you just said you're on Siyah. But you don't use CM because of SDS? either I misunderstood you or this makes no sense
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SnowPluralism:
No theres no misunderstooding ... i think its better ... if he has to die. To die in stock but that is just for know the phone is new and im 21 and it came out of my pocket so i take really good care of it ... in some time ... cm and perhaps ill make him a rom :b
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Glebun:
well FYI, there's no point in that. as long as you're using Siyah, CM or Stock don't have any effect on SDS. like, at all
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
He's right - no point.

There is a fix in the bootloader too, but this only affects your use of download mode. If you have a fixed kernel and recovery, you should be fine.

I keep an ALF6 bootloader installed to keep warranty in any OTHER situation so I have 0 flash counter (and I just avoid writing NAND from download mode).

if I get SDS, either I get FULL SDS (phone completely dead) or I get HALF SDS, when status shows as custom, even if unrooted. Having CM is no more a lose than stock.

I already had my Mobo replaced last November though. Still go 0xf1

Trying this on my AT&T Galaxy S3 believe it or not, as I just did the changeover mod found in another thread to enable HSPA+ on these phones. It uses a T Mobile ROM, so I tried this one to get up to 4.1.1 and lo and behold, it seems to work fine. So far so good, thanks. Do you know if wifi calling should be working in this rom?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] aamir123:
Wifi calling is working but you have to have T-mobile service I believe. Not sure if having a Att phone makes a difference but wifi calling on my t999 is working.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mrnv45:
downloading now.. i ws on liquidsmooth 4.2.2 but man that rom is trash.. i was thinkin maybe 4.2.2 roms so i was gonna go back to stock. and i seen this one is stock..

anything known to NOT be working? also does this have Motion?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] aamir123:
This rom has no know bugs and has all motions, trust me I like the motions reason I bought the S3 instead of N4. Only difference between this and stock is added features and improved sound. Speed and battery have improved but I will be looking to improve that soon as well.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mrnv45:
nice. and is this this 4.1.2? or 4.2?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] aamir123:
4.1.1, thats the latest tmobile all the 4.1.2 roms are ports from different carriers.

Do you have a tmobile galaxy s3? Idk how you recieved a 4.1.2 update without being on sprint or verizon.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mrnv45:
yup tmobile.. alot of people got it around april actually..

4.1.2 was released whenever i bought mine. i had alot of trouble rooting on my MAC cause they didnt have a 4.1.2 update for ODIN that worked. so i had to go to a Windows computer
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] gypsy214:
Huh I wonder I havent heard about this. Can you tell me your firmware name?

Just checked SamMobile and they dont have a 4.1.2 firmware for the tmobile S3! Witch means that there is not a 666root yet. Please make a screenshot of your firmware

I updated to a later base so I didn't get a chance to put it in again, I have an update coming up later today with it back in. Also it is recommended that you do a clean install when updating to 2.0 if you didn't then do it when you install 2.1
