Sounds like a rogue app running in the background. Did you do a full wipe clean install? If not that would be first step. That is not a common issue with beanstalk so I would suggest wipe and reinstall.

If you use titanium backup, don't reinstall the apps or data from it. Depending on what ROM you just came from, something you previously used may not be playing nicely.

Beanstalk is known for amazing battery life

Everything Makailey said is absolutely correct except there's one thing that I'd add to it.. It also depends on how long ago you flashed the rom. What you're describing sounds exactly like the results that I get during the first day or so after I flash the rom or a new kernel. However it only looks that way until the rom and especially the kernel get snuggled into place, and after that the results are completely different. I don't know how long ago you flashed it though so I'm not saying this is definitely the case with yours, but I figured I'd at least throw it out there in case it might help. :D

You might want to check out the Devil kernel thread (maybe a few pages before the newest post) because I think that issue may have been fixed, but I could be wrong because I'm not sure if mhl is completely handled by the kernel or not. I remember someone telling the op that he figured out the mhl problem by either adding a script in init.d or by modifying the build.prop (either way it looked relatively simple and straightforward) and I was actually going to try it out but I never got around to it. The last I checked nobody ever posted any results so it may or may not be a solution, but I figured I'd mention it because if it's a deal breaker for ya then may be worth a shot. If I ever get around to trying it out I'll post the results, but I wouldn't hold your breath waiting on me so you might want to try it for yourself lol. :D

OK I think it is probably my apps. Google plus is using a ton of battery and storage for some reason. So can I still use my titanium backup and just not restore my data??

I think this backup was from 4.3 maybe... It's done it on all three of my backups that I have. One touchwiz bkup and the other 4.2 illusion and beanstalk

4.3 doesn't play well with 4.2 from what I have read. I would do a clean install and not use titanium period. See if that fixes your problem for a day or two, then if needed slowly add a few from titanium. I personally never use titanium because always had nothing but issues when switching between 4.2 and TW with it. And now with 4.3 in the game, its going to cause you issues.

The fun of flashing is the excitement of a clean install and an excuse to set your phone up again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] jeep447:
I'm not sure if I'm missing something but the latest update (I believe that's what he's talking about) isn't 4.3. Like you said though I don't use titanium backup anymore either (it's been a few years actually) because I prefer Rom Toolbox Pro myself. The only thing I'd disagree with though is that it shouldn't hurt just restoring the apps themselves because from my experience the issues almost always come from the data itself. Some updates with roms change source which makes previous data not play well with the new rom, but restoring just the apps is the same as downloading them from Play. :D

Jeep447 he said he came from a 4.3 ROM and that is what his titanium back up is from. I am pretty sure the two don't mix at all
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] BigBake88:
Why would that matter? Isn't app data the same?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] makailey:
Not real sure. From what I've read compatability issues seem to exist between 4.2 and 4.3. Just seems the information out there is don't mix anything from the two together. I would love to have the answer of why, but way over my skill set...lol

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] jeep447:
Oh ok my bad man, I guess I need to work on my reading skills lol. Even with that being said, I'd say the same thing should still apply though. Data is usually where the issues come from when switching roms, not the .apk itself. I still have apps (and data) backed up from eclair and froyo that I still can restore without issues as long as I don't include the data, and I'm sure there are probably some exceptions but for the most part you shouldn't have any issues restoring just the apps themselves. I could be wrong, but I've never heard of an app that will only work with 4.3 and no other versions?

---------- Post added at 05:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:04 PM ----------

App data is practically never the same depending on what source the rom it was saved on came from. It changes all of the time even between updates to the same rom that's on the same version (4.2.2 to 4.2.2), so even if the data you saved worked fine on the last version of Beanstalk, it might cause issues on the latest update. The app itself though should technically switch from any rom or any version to any other rom on any other version, because it's just the installable app itself with no saved user data.

Edit: Although, Makailey could definitely still be correct because it also depends on how the 4.3 file system is structured compared to 4.2.2. I'm not that familiar with titanium backup so I'm not sure how it would handle the difference, but I know Rom Toolbox compensates for the difference by searching for the .apk directory before installing the backed up apps. I have no idea whether titanium backup does that or not (you'd figure it would but ya never know), so depending on how it works it's always possible it could cause problems even just restoring the apps themselves. I'd still say that restoring just the apps shouldn't be a problem, but anything is always possible so you never know! :D

Here's a new one. For me at least. Tried to install beanstalk ultimate, booted up ok, however the signing in was in German, switched to English, stayed in German, so went to recovery. Wiped dalvik and cache, failed, Twrp asked for a password, never has before, hit back wiped again, failed. Finally after about 6 attempts I was able to wipe and restore to Nan. Tried to go back to my beanstalk that was my backup. System ui Fc continually. Finally wiped the whole damn thing and went to my slim bean. That was a bad ride. Whew

First, I apologize for an off-topic post but...

I see a lot of people say they don't use TB. However, is there an alternative that is more reliable (for restoring user apps and data) or is the alternative to reload everything? I've owned TB Pro for a couple of years but typically re-install any apps that don't have much configuration or data. I do restore some user apps AND data if there is a lot I don't want to lose. When the android version is different (4.1.x and 4.2.x) I tend to be even more cautious. I also own ROM Toolbox Pro (mentioned in another post) but I would think TB (being dedicated to backups) would be more reliable.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] BigBake88:
Give Helium a go. Nice user interface, simple to use, and fast. :thumbup: :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] RichMD:
Personally, I have never seen TB cause a problem when I restore user apps and data between different ROMs on the same android version. I "believe" (mostly a guess) that "how" app data is stored can and does change between android versions but NOT for different ROMs on the same version. That is why TB and other backup programs can work across different ROMs. Hopefully, someone could clarify it they know for sure.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] jeep447:
It depends on what the rom is built on as to whether or not restored data is going to work with it or not. Restored data is never guaranteed to work between any rom change, whether it's just an upgrade for the same rom you were on, or a completely different Android version. Restoring the apps by themselves should work regardless of the rom, and if it doesn't for some reason it's pretty easy to correct considering you could just install the apk yourself or just download it from Play, because that's basically the same thing as restoring just the apps only. The backed up data itself doesn't change when restoring on roms from the same Android version, the cm source for that rom could've changed causing that data to not work, even though they're on the same Android version.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] angieri918:
Yea you may be correct. I was running probam and pacman 4.3s and went back to 4.2 and did TB and got the high CPU.. Also tho, what made go back from the 4.3s was my CPU was doing the same thing. I didn't think anything of it being from TB but come to think of it, I probably did a 4.2 TB on those 4.3 ROMs.. I did the clean install and no titanium this time and my CPU is still kinda hanging around 50% with only trickster mod opened here's an SS. Think I should just give it some time to settle in and it might just fix itself?? Thanks for everyone's input! It's greatly appreciated over here!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] jeep447:
In my opinion, yes I would definitely say just let it settle in for a couple days because I get nearly identical results the first day or so after I flash a rom or kernel. I've said it before but as a rule of thumb I usually don't pay attention to the processors or battery life for at least 2 days, because the readings won't be accurate until everything settles anyway. After that if it does settle down, I would actually pick and choose a few things that I really wanted my data back from and try restoring them (I'd also do a nand backup first though), and if it doesn't spike or go haywire after that then you're set! Also just to clarify, I don't think that titanium backup was the problem necessarily, I think the problem may have been from the restored data (actually I'm pretty sure it was considering you restored data from a completely different Android version). You could've used any backup app and you'd still probably have the same issues after restoring the data from a different version of Android. Makailey mentioned he heard that even restoring just the apps from a 4.3 backup to a 4.2.2 rom could cause problems, so that's why I said titanium could cause that issue because I've always been able to restore just the apps no matter what rom or version I was on, but I've also never tried restoring apps (or data but I wouldn't anyway because it's a totally different version) from 4.3 to 4.2.2 so I can't say anything for sure. Anyway I'd say it should settle down after a day or so because mine always does, and hopefully it works out for ya either way cuz this rom is unbelievable! :D

Sorry man I didn't see your post until just now. I honestly don't think I could live without Rom Toolbox Pro lol, but it's all just a matter of preference. As far as reliability goes I've never had an issue with Rom Toolbox, and I use a ton of the features it has like scheduled backups, backup specific or all apps to Dropbox, font changer, boot animation changer, root explorer, text editor, scripter, and build prop editor just to name a few :D Plus it'll backup your call logs, bluetooth pairings, wifi settings, sms, mms, playlists, dictionary, accounts, widgets, and so on, but again I'm sure there's other apps that do close to the same. It's just my favorite so I highly recommend it and then some :D

Even if you did make a mistake (and again I'm not saying that you did) it doesn't mean you're an idiot because we all do it from time to time!

Just wanted to say that I decided last night that I was a bit fed up with some of the sluggishness and graphical glitches I had been seeing and decided that since I had dirty flashed probably the last 4 beanstalk updates as well as switching kernels multiple times, it was time for a clean install.

Everything is looking good so far, a little bit of sluggishness, but otherwise, super smooth so far and back on neak kernel for now.

I did have an issue this morning with bluetooth in my car not actually making calls, but I will test more later and see if thats actually broken or not since it was the first sync I had done with my car since the install.

I have been so impressed with the battery life on the most recent release with neak, I'm not touching that extended brick again. Ran the screen for 1.5 hours yesterday with no power saving techniques (besides greenify) and went to bed at 80%. Don't think I could go back to touchwiz after using this :)

Yea I must have done something wrong cause the rom ran for a few hours fine, then I started noticing some of my apps weren't getting the superuser prompt. I decide to reboot thinking I needed to clear some cobwebs because of the fresh flash. Got stuck after the Samsung logo. Had to restore my nand of the tw rom. Maybe I could have cleared caches but I was worried about draining my battery with thw reboots. This is what I did.

1 ) Factory reset

2 ) wipe cache

3 ) wipe dalvik cache

4 ) wipe system

5 ) wipe internal sd [been a while since I did this, figured now would be good to narrow down all problems

6 ) install rom

7 ) install gapps

8 ) install latest devil kernel

9 ) wipe both caches again

10 ) fix permissions

11 ) boot into rom and download tb from market

12 ) restore ONLY APPS

As I was setting up greenify and Green power both apps reported no root access but tb received the root access. Then after a reboot it borked. Sorry for the long post but I wanted to be very detailed so someone can help me. Im at a lost.
