My phone spends more time in "screen off" state at 384mhz than it does in "deep sleep" overnight. I checked BetterBatteryStats and noticed that msm_otg is on 40% of the time. could this be the culprit or does the phone not normally go into deep sleep?
this is also the one on top of the stats on my phone. what does this msm_otg do anyway?

See here...its just that it lies in the kernel layer of our phones.

Did you ever figure this out? I'm running stock JellyBean on my Sprint Galaxy S III and it just started happening seemingly out of nowhere.
I found this post in the BetterBatteryStats thread.
Which ROM and kernel are you running?

I've never used a custom ROM or kernel. It's stock everything.
From settings-> about:
Android version: 4.1.1
Baseband version: L710VPBLJ7
Kernel version: 3.0.31-329968 [email protected] #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue Oct 16 22:37:51 KST 2012
Build number: JRO03L.L710VPBLJ7
Hardware version: L710.14
If it's truly being caused by OTG host support your SGS3 has that built-in, but it is only available with custom kernels on the Evo 3D. The description of the driver seems to indicate that it may be more generically related to USB operations.

Thanks for the help. It seems too coincidental that this just happened at the same time that I upgraded from ICS to JB and most other people don't have battery issues since upgrading. Been trying to figure out other things, but to no avail. I wish there was a way to disable OTG host support to see if that is indeed causing it.
Sorry for being a noob (new to the world of android)
I've followed and re-read (at least 3x) the guide to flash the kernel, watched the video (twice) and "flashed" the kernel the through these processes more than 10 times.
I've tried both the v2 and v3 versions of the easy kernel flasher and have tried to flash the kernel after a full wipe.
I still cannot seem to have the kernel flashed.
I've done many searches, so I hope its okay for me to ask what I may be doing wrong. On the forums, i see that the latest kernel from xboarder should say (on the 2nd line) "[email protected]" or something but this is still what my kernel says:
Kernel version:
2.6.35.13-g52e85af
[email protected] #1
SMP PREEMPT Wed Oct 26 21:56:13 CST 2011
I also have 1 more question: what does CRT on and CRT off mean?

CRT on and off gives it a look like an old analog television set going on and off. When you flash a new kernel, you should flash it twice and restart your phone a twice after flashing it. That seems to fix it for most people.
flash this using cwm and you should be good to go.

however, my kernel still looks the same:

Like I said, flash twice, restart twice. Glad you're good to go.
I too am having issues with getting a kernel flashed - Using Xboarder's Beastmod 2.2 kernel, but it still shows up from [email protected]
My procedure for doing it was:
reboot into bootloader, choose fastboot, fastboot flash boot boot.img, reboot bootloader, fastboot flash boot boot.img, then reboot twice. (Never booting into the android system)
Still stuck with the stock HTC kernel.
Just to clarify: I've got beastmod working right now apparently too, so I don't know exactly what's going on. I'm assuming that the kernel is necessary for it to work, but apparently I'm still on stock HTC kernel.
- I've done the HTCDev bootloader unlock. I've installed latest CWM too. Looking for guidance on wtf is happening. (Also, if it matters - WIND Amaze, HBoot 1.90.0008, S-ON.)

xboarder's kernel is going to say "htc stuff." They all will unless you're using one of Faux's kernels which in that case will say "Paul" intead of "HTC."

Thanks for the info. I was worried for a second that it didn't take and I had screwed something up. I guess the only thing left is for someone to release pure aosp for this device, but I'm patient enough.

No Kernel Links Work!
I can't seem to download any of the kernels from the www.multiuploads.com link? Can someone help me here?
Also, if I'm trying to install the QuikSense v2.1 Rom, can I use either the kernel 2.1.0 (by Xboarder) or the faux123 one? My main goal is to be able to wifi hotspot without Tmobile's interference.
Many thanks in advance.
I flashed the following awhile back:

Now that the official ICS is being released, is there any difference from the version I flashed?
Thanks

...what?
Official leak is still a leak. It comes from a source inside Samsung, it includes official AT&T software and tweaks, the ROM just hasn't been released to general public and may undergo further changes before being released.
The versions posted by Task have been edited by him, to include root and deodexing, as well as a stock kernel with CWM Recovery added (links were pulled recently due to some users reporting hard bricks).

There is no official ICS for I777. There is for I9100, which can be run on I777 with a custom kernel and a few small tweaks (see Hellraiser).
So the difference between leaked and official is that leaked exists.

I said it was official "leak"
Never said it was official release. Could be one day but in no way official release
But I'm going to say with no bearing that official ics will come in november.
Officially the non official release of official firmware was released by a official source of DG. Unofficially released from Samsung.

Nevemind. Even task called it "official". Although technically, I would never call a leak "official".

Unlocked Galaxy S II in the United States receiving Ice Cream Sandwich
Unlocked Galaxy S II in the United States receiving Ice Cream Sandwich
by Quentyn Kennemer on April 20th, 2012 at 9:56 am
While a high majority of Galaxy S II variants in the United States have yet to receive Ice Cream Sandwich, users of the unlocked GSM version will be happy to know that they”re among the first owners in the country to be graced with the sweet upgrade. http://phandroid.com/2012/04/20/unl...e-united-states-receiving-ice-cream-sandwich/
I wonder how this will affect those that are running the variants of the "Official" leak? Will we have to do anything special to our phones before doing the real official OTA ICS?
That's for people who bought I9100 units in the USA.
NOTHING to do with AT&T I777 units.

I bought a phone from craigslist a few weeks ago, and it came rooted with the ICS leak from Motorola.
Now that the official OTA ICS from Motorola is being released today, how do I get to this? I honestly don't care about root at this time. I just want to be on the official one.
Unless there is absolutely NO different AT ALL, then I will stay. Thanks for the help!

Download the utility and use option 2 to upgrade to ICS build. 211 which is the same as the OTA. That's your only option. Follow the instructions carefully.

Another reason I love this site, for the support. Thanks guys, will update after I do this.
I got a HTC one M8, which was rooted and has a custom ROM with the following specs
Android Version: 4.4.4
Baseband Version: 1.12.21331931.LA21G_20.28A.4145.00L
Kernel Version: [email protected] #11 Sun Jun 29 11:47:06 PDT 2014
Build Number SkyDragon GPE V3.0.1
Questions are:
1. Is this a stable version of Skydragon ROM?
2. At times the camera app crashes. is this a known issue? Do i need to update this ROM to a newer version? (Is there a newer version available?)
3. Launching the OTA updater app gives me a "Error Fetching update info: Invalid ROM (SkyDragonGpe-3.0.1) and device(htc_m8) combo. Is this a known issue as well?
I am not able to find the details regarding the build elsewhere. The phone was rooted, (I was unaware of this when i bought the phone). Any insights would be appreciated.

Didn't mean to thank the post. If you don't like how the rom is performing then try another. That's the beauty of being rooted. If you want to keep a Google play edition rom, try sinless. There are several versions depending on what you want. Or you could flash a RUU and return to stock unrooted.

Do you mean you can't find the ROM thread? If so, here it is: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2706391
You can search the thread to see if there is any mention of camera issues (I did a quick look, and didn't see anything jump out at me). Or just flash another ROM as previously suggested, to see if that fixes the camera issue.

I would complain to the seller, even if you are okay with it being modded, rooted, etc. I would also mention the camera issue, in the event you can't fix it in software and its a hardware issue (in which you should seek to get a refund, exchange, etc.).
The seller not informing you the phone is modded,rooted, etc. is at a minimum a breach of common sense; at most its deceptive.
Also, this thread should have been posted in Q&A, so I've notified the mods to move it.
