The life on 4.1.2 is terrible over all not sure why best bet would be routing flashing a custom rom or you could try playing with kernels but those are tricky business. I feel 4.1.1 Roms get the best battery though I'm on 4.2 and not very good battery life on that either
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] wardoc22:
I flashed a number of 4.1.2 roms and found out that for some reason the cpu stays at the max clock constantly. No clue why.. Maybe that's the issue? :confused:

Doesn't matter to me at the end since I got a lemon
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] IXChicharitoXI:
Yeah I'm not really liking it much. I would do better on 4.1.1

These are my results on Stockorama v2. Stock Kernel.

I don't think it's that bad but I wish it was better.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] klin1344:
That's actually quite good compared to what I get with the latest CM 10.1 nightly.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
That's terrible on both accounts lol. I usually get 18 hours with that battery time. I remove all the bloat I mean all of it. I have maybe 20 apps total in my app drawer, I disable all the sync besides contacts, gmail, and calender. But still have drain. On stock kernel it was bad and deep sleep was hardly achieved with no apps running in the back ground. I'm gonna Odin root66 md5, tomorrow and see if it helps. Other then that I'm going back to 4.1.1. I'll report back tomorrow or Friday with results.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] xenon2000:
Well, I don't plan on rooting or using a custom rom any time soon. But I am hoping to find out what I can tweak to get my battery life back to what it was. I am guessing I don't have the option to go back to 4.1.2 using Kies. And I hear that 4.2 has poor battery life as well, so now I don't have that to look forward too either.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Hellstyrant:
I'm on Stockorama V1 and still had 50% battery when I went to bed this morning (I work nights). The first day after I flashed it the battery was pretty bad, mostly due to wake locks from the Media Server, but that was an easy fix with an app from the Market. I would actually say my battery life is a little bit better now than it was on 4.1.1.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
I don't know if Sammy ever solved it, but iwith past updates the media scanner would hang up and drain batteries quick. Some had their phones heat up.

Another culprit can be that when going to a different android version, it may handle some data differently, causing hang ups when it runs into something they didn't plan for.

In either of these cases, its best to do a full wipe (backup first) and then reinstall your apps. Don't restore them from backup as that's just like not wiping in the first place.

Then wherever possible, import your data through the app itself. Not many do this but some do. Contacts is one.

I know it can be a pain, but it can help a lot. Plus you wind up cleaning out stuff you don't use or need anymore.

I always wipe data when updating , unless its to the same android version (4.1.1 to 4.1.1). Going to 4.1.2 shouldn't be to big a deal, but you never know.

Another thing to try:

If you verify media server/scanner is a oroblem, copy all your music, pics, vids, etc to your computer and wioe it from the phone. Then reboot and wait a few min to see if its acting ok. Then copy your files back, wait a few min and reboot again. Hopefully it'll calm down after this.

Hope that's more helpful than confusing!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] daxecutioner24:
You wonder why carriers take so long to release an update because usually people would start complaining. It's not 4.1 so don't expect the same thing, usually when there's an update things are the never the same. It was the same thing the jump from ics to jelly bean, when creating voltages for batteries I don't think companies anticipate all the extra stuff a update can bring this is still kinda of an ics phone.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dpshptl:
My battery life went up so much. I'm on stock but rooted. I usually drain my battery before the day is over. Now I'm going over a full day.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jrosetto:
I was able to get 32 hours on average with CM 10.1 and KTunez kernel. I recently switched to the Stock latest TW and I'm seeing 22-24 hours with the KTunez kernel. I am rooted and removed all the bloatware.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Purple Ferret:
I'm running stock rooted for now. I hardly have even noticed any battery drain on my phone. Stock Battery, nothing really battery-heavy, no customer kernels. However I dont really see the use of this Sidebar thing. Its like

HAY GUIZ LETS PUT THE UBUNTU UNITY BAR ON ANDROID HUEHUEHUEHUE SO CLEVER!

But in all seriousness, I seem to be running just fine. So I cant really vouch for Multiwindow being the culprit. I may run some tests though.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] xenon2000:
I don't remember what it was before. But usually by the time I went to bed, it was in the 40's and sometimes the 30's if it was a heavy day for me. Now it drops into the teens.

I see that as of today, the phone has been discharging for just under 4 hours and is already at 88%. And I haven't even used the phone in any way today before checking it right now. Shows "Google Services" as 41% of the battery use. But that only shows CPU total at 33 seconds. Next item is "Device Idle" at 15%. So I don't understand why it's down to 87% in 4 hours of basically doing nothing.

Though I don't think that info alone means anything to me right now as I don't recall what that info was like on 4.1.1, only that my battery % by bedtime is significantly lower than when on 4.1.1

I was just curious how many other Tmobile people experienced the same thing when going from 4.1.1 to 4.1.2. All stock that is.

I don't have time to deal with wiping the phone clean and starting over. But I may try that someday. My phone never gets hot and I never see the CPU getting much use at any given time.

I do wonder about facebook though. I think it also did an update of it's own around the same time I did the 4.1.2 update. I will check into that.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] aamir123:
I have found battery life to be about the same, at first it wasn't that great but now I was able to get over 2 days with minimal use 4g on all day. With normal I use I still get better battery life that 4.1.1
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] xenon2000:
I am confused. So it wasn't good and then it just became good over time? Or have you made some setting changes?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] aamir123:
Well when I first updated it was stock and battery life didn't seem very good but I've since flashed a custom rom and all is well. Also I think stock rom got better battery with use, maybe had to settle in? But within 3 days of using 4.1.2 my battery was back to normal again.

Hi everyone,

I have been having issues lately with the cm10.1 nightlies in which I can be doing anything, or even doing nothing, and my phone randomly crashes and will not work again until the battery is pulled. This prompted me to pull a logcat. The one attached is from when I looked over on my desk and saw it had the issue again. I suspect it rebooted around the time below, based on how long it takes me to remove the cover and turn it back on.

Any ideas? I have no microsd inserted and 7gb free space.

Thanks for any help!

I'm no expert on that matter, but maybe you want to address that trouble to the CM - Nightlies thread in the developer forum. I know that there's a lot of people having RR or SOD on nightlies, and some have found a solution on that thread, like the latest pointed by Mikeyman, being to update the Firmware of your phone...

Hello,

If somebody will help me, I'll be a lucky man :D

My case:

I'm trying to port Android 4.1 to 4.0

Now I have bootable ROM with workable display, touchscreen, gsm.

How to solve issues with wifi, cameras and so on, I know.

But I have one problem which I can not solve...

I have some physical buttons which not work (for example programs like KeycodeChecker dont show any signs when button pressed). I don't ask you how to assign functions for buttons (please, do not try to tell me about keylayout folder).

My question:

Where in android system happens key code number assignment for phisical buttons? For example, if I press button vol+, KeycodeChecker shows me key code number 212, but, if I press button vol-, KeycodeChecker shows nothing...

PS: sorry for my English...

All users need to be reminded that odds are bad for you if you flash international version material on US phones. This is typically the standard, and all users take chances if they desire to try something that destroys a 600+dollar piece if equipment.

If you do it - don't cry, and be adult enough to not defraud the carrier or your insurance company if you do, in fact, turn your phone into a fancy paperweight.

You have been warned

I have had Samsung devices in the past, and you can always reset the flash counter or get rid of the triangle. However, with HTC once you unlock the bootloader you can only 're-lock' it.

Thanks.

Yeah I guess not many people have noticed because they maybe not use or something. But that is something I really used a lot on my HTC One X and now that I have a slightly better camera on the Galaxy S4 I can't use it. There must be a way a developer can make a camera mod that enables that.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] HoustonsBirdman:
OK, so a week ago I switch from the GSII to GSIII.. GSII has a bunch of support!! Figured since the SIII has been out a while that the S3 would be close to the same level... thought wrong... here's why.. I love multiwindow, I love S voice, Smart stay etc... well what "ROM" do I choose that supports these functions??? Some consider these options "bloat", but without them what seperates the GSII from GSIII?? THIS is not a rant, just a real question.. I want to keep these items and still have customization like I did on AOKP roms... where do I turn???

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] klin1344:
There are a bunch of ROMs that have multiwindow and a bunch of customization options. Try to read the ROM threads more clearly and you will see which ROMs have which features.

I was just using Axis yesterday, and I recommend it to you. It has a nice theme, multi window, and a plethora of tweaks. You can change almost any part of the ROM to suit your liking. I know the screenshots in the thread don't reveal much, but it has the most customization options in any TouchWiz ROM I've used to date...I'll even say that it's close to the number of options AOKP has. :good:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Da Kine:
The S3 just got the 4.1.2 update with the multi-window, you really can't expect devs to add custom features that quickly. Take a look in the android development thread, keep an eye out for anything Jovy23 releases.

Other than that, you have to flash what's available, there are 4.1.2 ports that have the multiwindow feature as well as the other features you mention. You can find this stuff in the android development section.

[LG Optimus G Pro] onetongwa:
Does anyone know how to enable the FM radio inside the G Pro (assuming ATT kept it inside). I know from past smart phones that FM radio ability can lay dormant inside the handset until software enables it. This was the case with a windows phone recently. I do know that the international model had the FM radio. I need to know if ATT removed the FM chip or disabled it with software. I hope some one has root ability to offer some type of FM radio on this device (or using the Bluetooth radio as FM). Thanks for any help!!!!

[LG Optimus G Pro] Paradolia:
Any way to retrieve the necessary programming?
[LG Optimus G Pro] mikereidis:
If the FM antenna pin is grounded, as it is in most "Western world" phones now, nothing short of an extremely expensive and/or "heroic act" will fix it.

Do you know, or can you afford to hire, someone with access to thousands of dollars worth of micro-soldering and multi-layer PCB reworking equipment. And the skills to use them ?

In 4 1/2 years devoted almost exclusively to FM radio on Android, I have only ever heard of 1 successful case: A Chinese Android tablet that had an easily accessible antenna jumper. He used my app but we could never enable audio, which can be another huge hurdle.

Vast majority of devices use a PCB ground trace, that can be thick and very difficult to break. Then you'd attach a wire to a 75 cm or more long antenna/headset cable. Never mind the few coils or caps etc that need to be installed too.

TL;DR: Forget about it and get a new phone with stock FM, or a BT/FM headset like Sony MW-1.
