Do you have wifi on? If so, this could be the fix for it http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/56125/ (i'm still waiting for it to be merged)

At least it fixed the high drain for me.

Another common weird high battery drain is when you make a call. After it the device will start eating much more battery, but not so much as you describe so I don't think this is the cause of your problems. Anyway, this goes back to normal after a restart.

Many people just discard complaints about battery problems. Indeed many of the complaints are user fault, but not all. I remember the first times I complaint about the high-drain-after-call problem, even codeworx said "there is not battery problem". Some time after that a lot of people noticed the pattern and started complaining about the same thing.

Have you tried BetterBatteryStats?

Hi,

I'm on cm-11-20131218-Nightly and have some issues with BT audio paring.

The audio is stuttering...

any fix for that issue?

plus my GPS is keep on loosing signal - any one reported on GPS status?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] MmegaMac:
Look at the CyanogenMod wiki.

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Froschface:
Thank you for your reply. You are restoring my faith in the CM community. :good:

After the disappointment yesterday I have already moved away from CM and back to OMNI. The screenshots I attached to this post show my normal battery consumption during idle time with OMNI. Yes, 1-2% per hour is still a lot and it surely could be tweaked to a much better battery life. But keep in mind that this is running with the same GApps and the same settings, except that the location services were turned ON (!). In comparison: yesterday - with CM - I lost about 15-20% in a single hour on idle with the same apps and the same settings (and location turned off).

(Edit: The reason why I'm posting this is to show that it simply cannot be the usage pattern and my settings which are causing such an enormous battery drain alone.)

The possible fix you posted could indeed point out the reason for my battery drain. The WLAN I'm using is really quite crowded, if this prevented a deep sleep then I am not surprised about the higher drain.

Furthermore I am aware about this after-call bug. But the excessive battery consumption from yesterday did not follow an incoming or outgoing call.

The next time I am trying CM I will install BetterBatteryStats in order to obtain more information in case I should experience battery problems again. But for now I am happy with OMNI ROM.

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] 5ta1da:
Everytime I turn on Location via toggle (because there is no GPS switch), dialog with Google Location Services agreement shows up.

Is this normal behavior?

(I know people are saying that there is no need to switch it off a on, but influence to battery life is obvious).

And also I need to say, that I really dont like phone app from 4.4 :(
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] mikesoccer25:
Finally good battery...im on 22.12 nightly and i followed these steps:

Fresh rom install

Flashed 4.4.2 standard gapps by Banks

Flashed 4.4.2 core gapps by Banks

Location turned off

Running ART

Now i have a decent battery life...about the same i had with stock samsung 4.3
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] cink40:
And why did you flashed standard + core gaaps? Everything what is in core is also in standard (and some more...).
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] mikesoccer25:
Somebody here said it did flash them both so i said i should try maybe im doing something wrong and thats why im having the battery drain and the very high android os battery consumtion

---------- Post added at 03:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:25 PM ----------

So i dont know if its the fresh install or the 22.12 nightly but now i have decent battery life
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] vonuzu:
I thought that art wasn't working with cm?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] cink40:
And why would you think that? On art for several weeks..
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] vonuzu:
Well i tried to switch from dalvik to art on the 20th nightly but there was warning that cm doesn't support art.. So.. I left it like that, on dalvik runtime.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] cink40:
Where did you see this warning? Maybe you saw that for xposed framework ( which does not work on art..)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] cink40:
;) i forgot that one...as i said using art for several weeks and no problems at all

which Google app to install

i am about to upgrade from CM10 to CM11 (the most recent nightly build). not sure which google app i should install. people talks about several here and i am not clear as to why there are several versions of the GAPP files out there.

would someone be kind enough to provide links where i can download these GAPP zip files, thanks.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] vonuzu:
Go with PAgapps, use google search for link.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] sfaguy:
i see two version of 4.4 one is full (20131126) and one is stock (20131215). what is the different?

Apollo & other media players:

Is nobody else getting no sound from Apollo & other media players ?

I see this problem on nightlies Dec 21, 22 and 23.

Dec 20 and earlier do not have this problem. I've flashed/booted back and forth a few times to verify.

It coincides with a problem/change to chmod which prevents it from changing permissions on /dev/snd/pcm* etc., even after running SU and getting root.

??

Thanks and Merry Christmas... :)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] MmegaMac:
Try to do a full wipe. Merry Christmas.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] mikereidis:
Ah, the sins of dirty flashing... I was getting away with this too long on too many phones and ROMs...

Worked like a charm, thank you very much ! :)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] sfaguy:
hmm...i tried installing CM-11 20131223 and it failed with status 7. i did it twice and it failed each time. should i be using CM-11 20131222 instead??

then i tried CM-11 20131112 and it failed also.

i followed the instructions (1) wipe data/factory reset, (2) wipe cache partition (3) wipe Dalvik cache each time i install CM-11. now i had to restore back to CM-10

any idea why it failed on me??
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] vonuzu:
Read the op, you need the latest cwm or twrp recovery.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] sfaguy:
hmm...i am using ROM manager v5.5.2.8, i upgraded it to v5.5.3.4. when i launch it, it says current recovery: clockworkmod 6.0.4.3

do i not have the latest cwm??

i am in the process of doing CM-11 again, now it says my cwm recovery v6.0.4.3... i hope this is the current one.

update - it installed CM-11 and PAgapps successfully. now i need to test the CM-11

thanks!!
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] vonuzu:
No problem.. That's why we're here.

The cwm recovery was the problem for the error 7..
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] sfaguy:
i have been testing CM-11. so far, the camera app fails and i get 'can't connect to the camera'. how do i fix this?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] mikereidis:
Darn it, this fixed Apollo, but didn't fix my app*, maybe because it uses the Android Audiotrack API.

*I think I saw it work once, but can't reproduce a good result now on Dec 21-23.

Maybe some SE-Linux stuff that's been messing with chmod too ?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] vonuzu:
Restart solves this problem, but for me after few pics it freezes again.. :( so i need to reboot again.. In time it will be solved.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] mikesoccer25:
Use banks 14.12.2013 ...google for it...they are the best...standard pack its fine

i hope it will get fixed soon
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] BeEmEroff:
i had the same issue, i did this, in the original ROM, open the zip, then deleted camera and galery apk, then save zip and flashed. flash then the new camera, the one with photoshpere from google. then installed gaps and all thing i want, then rebbot, and now i have one camera that works ok without freezes and without chashes, and the gallery :) problem solved :)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] cink40:
And if you just flash Google camera from banks or his standard gapps which also replace cm camera?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Mickyman:
Camera works fine for me. Latest nightly, and latest pa-gapps mini. When is the camera suppose to crash?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] BeEmEroff:
this way you will have 2 cameras, with different icon's, and two gallery's

one of the cameras will continue having probs.

this was wy i deleted it from the rom and then installed the new one. the new one you don't need to flash it, its an APK file ;)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] cink40:
Nope, flashing banks gapps or his camera zip replace cm camera...i have just one camera - one with photosphere...
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] orgert:
with bank gapps standart , it was crashing if i took to many pic rapidly,

i wiped every thing , cuz i noticed that after flashing bank gapps , camera app changed the effect icon wasnt there any more, so the second time i just flashed core gapps , now camera is ok, but only issue is that touch to focus is not working any more, or this is not a bug ?

thanx for your replies guys
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Razyre:
What's everyone's experience with battery life so far?

Just come from the SuperNexus 4.3 from August (the direct rip from Nexus 4) and as I can tell so far, battery is far worse. Using almost no connectivity, even WiFi off, percentage is draining around 1 per minute, perhaps even more with the screen on.

Any recommendations or links to ways I can optimise? I'm sorry I haven't scoured the entire internet I'm not particularly high on time atm due to Christmas - I needed a ROM with a working camera.

I'm using the latest nightly and that's what I'm getting the awful battery life on. Can anyone recommend a nightly that has good battery life? Not really too bothered which one, this is just rather annoying.

Using:

ROM: CM11-20131224-NIGHTLY-i9300

Kernel: 3.0.64-CM-gb166325 build 02@cyanogenmod #1

Perhaps a different kernel may help my battery life?

------------

As for the camera, it was crashing constantly with flash as it always had on CM for me before, took me about 10-15 minutes of searching and found this:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2505973

Install the CM11 .apk in recovery and as far as I can tell it alleviates all issues with the camera. You don't get the new app but who cares, it's not much better anyway.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] cink40:

I had no issues installing CM11 with Phillz recovery, so either there is a problem with the zip you downloaded or you don't have the latest. Phillz is based on CWM so make sure the base recovery is 6.0.4.3 or greater.

I'm only using stock kernel wiith the CM11 nightlies, because that way it's more stable and my fixes will only work on stock kernel(tested).

Xposed for KitKat no ART

After installing Xposed, the runtime gets reset from ART to Dalvik. Can you stop it please?

You can be glad that I implemented this, otherwise you would be in a bootloop know. Xposed isn't compatible with ART (yet). It's a completely different architecture with pretty much no documentation. I hope that I can rewrite Xposed for the ART runtime, but don't expect it in the near future. It requires understanding the concept, the code structure and many details to know how it works. Afterwards, I have to think about ways to hijack it and this needs to be implemented, tested and improved again and again. So please don't ask when it will be available - you will surely know when it is ready.

I didn't checked the runtime after installing :eek: darn!
