Hi guys,
I have couple of questions about Resurrection v9.4 ROM but according to my limited access I can't post them on it's dev page.
First of all I should thank Westcrip for his fantasitc job ! even if its not 100% perfect but its good enough to stop you using other ROMs !
1. Battery Life : I had a better battery life on v9.3 but after updating to latest version the battery drains so quickly, I tried to decharge/recharge and even reset my batery stats but these didn't help either.
2. This is defo not a big problem but I can't install couple of apps like 'London Underground' which is defo compatible with ICS, it gives me error, sometimes complains about installing on SD and sometimes just fails without any specific reason.
3. There are some FC closes but I couldn't replicate all of them, but one of them happens everytime which is not important at all but maybe its better to mention for later bug fixing, everytime that I try to select infinite scroll from Nova Launcher its crashes and couple of times, even I had to remove battery to restart the phone but when OS comes up there is no problem with a functionlity and it works smooth and without any prob, it ONLY happens when you tick the box.
I am still playing with it and can't decide to stay with 9.4 or downgrade to 9.3.
Again I should thank Westcrip and whoever helps him to develope this remarkable ROM.
You're using a ROM based on a leaked, buggy, unofficial Samsung ROM and are having problems? No wai! It's good of you to list that detailed bug report though, maybe mail it off to Samsung for analysis? The battery part especially is very thorough.
I am not complaining about buggy custom ROM ! I know what is custom ROM and what should I expect from that ! I raised those issues based on last two versions comparison.

Nor on this page rules say question = Q&A

Battery stats does nothing for battery life .
Sone roms/kernels drain more battery stick with the one you get good battery life from upgrade does not always mean better .
2. This is defo not a big problem but I can't install couple of apps like 'London Underground' which is defo compatible with ICS, it gives me error, sometimes complains about installing on SD and sometimes just fails without any specific reason.
Its the rom
3.

Remarkable and you would not be posting problems .
One of the problems with leaked buggy beta test rom ICS is that problems are varied and seemingly random as witnessed by thousands of posts .

Fair enough maybe I should have post it on Q&A (Thanks for moving it to the right) but about the rest of your comments sorry its just your idea !
Maybe there are random and different problems but when you use one device with exactly same baselines and get new errors it means new changes made those new problems. There are over 750 pages of comments and questions under the resurrection ROM and developers actually use them to fix the bugs if you dont raise the problem just because its just based on a leaked / buggy / ... ROM then how on earth they can find the issues, if you dont want or can't help no one forced you to do so, there will be someone with answers.
You were right if you I would say hey this ROM is buggy or why this doesn't work ! This new build just released two days ago and I am trying to compare v9.3 and v9.4

Hi all,
First post, so please be kind
I currently have RR 3.1.2 and SuperNexus build5 installed on dual boot on my GT-I9300. Although both are good ROMs, neither fullfill my requirement of a couple of days of battery life. My original ICS Samsung ROM would last this long. It wasnt until JB update that I started playing with new installations due to my bat life being almost 1/2'ed! What I'm now thinking is possibly to keep RR ROM or go back to Samsung JB ROM on main boot, and on 2nd boot install a very lightweight ROM that will be good at preserving bat life. I need this for days away using GPS mapping/tracking software together with photos. Energy HD sounds good, but hasnt been updated for sometime and is ICS 4.0.4. Before I go and install that, are there any more upto date similar ROMs around? Of course, I could always go back to Samsung stock ROM on 2nd boot, but am aware, its got a lot of bloatware installed.
Thanks for your advice!
Dave

Thanks for the reply JJEgan, very useful link to all the ROMs. So it looks like SuperNexus ROM should be long lasting, being AOSP, oh!
Am I going to have to try all 23 other AOSP ROMs and work it out myself :laugh: Think I'll start at CM10. This might take sometime!

You should also search for "better battery stats" apk around here, and check what is the cause of your power consumption - the ROM almost never is, usually it is a group of apps that keep the device from getting into deep sleep. GPS locators and other anti-theft programs are on that list, also programs that try to update often over network. MyProfiles was also creating a large problem on my CrisKelo-based configuration. On certain hardware configurations with permanent data connection there might be other problems with fast dormancy on network and other stuff.
Hello People,
As you can see im new to this community, i hope i won´t bother you so much.
I got an S3 myselft and unlocked it right away before even using it. Did use Samsung S3 Toolkit , which i think its a great tool and this forum is a huge palace full of incredible geniuses so i´m really grateful for what is has done for me already.
As i stated in the title i´ve been getting serious problems after rooting my phone , everything working fine. or i think it is. But the UI in general became slow as hell , it crawls on the floor , pressing the menu butom to go back takes from 5 to 8 seconds to respond onto something , no matter what , oppening applications is not that slow but switching pages or screens is LAGGY as hell. I tried full wipe , cache wipe , before and after flashing.
Actually using this rom I9300UBEMA1_I9300UVOELL1_ARO its the Non branded version of my Local Firmwar (Argentina) , the kernel i use if the one that comes with Samsung S3 toolkit 7.0.0 the 4.1.2 unrooted version for JZ054K.ELLA ( file name :boot-insecure-ella-GTI9300 )
The original Firm and kernel the phone had was the 4.0.4 "Personal" Branded BLG6 Kernel.
I know this phone is already known as a battery killer , but i didn´t spected to be that kind of slow to crawl device. I´ve already tried multiple task killer apps like AutoKill or ES task manager , Better battery stats to check battery drain but still cannot find a reason. Tried Juice Defender Ultimate on Extreme settings. And did nothing to my battery life.
Then Looking for some Customized roms i found out 2 that took my attention :
One of them is Omega and the other is Android Revolution HD, which one of these are going to have a possitive effect on performance gain + battery economy without overkilling phone capabilities ? . Is that the answer? or are there any real app / patch that could really resolve this issue.
Well people im sorry if this question sounds quite stupid or bothers some people but i already researched more than 200+ hours and i couldn´t find the exact point where i should be heading to solve this.
I would start with a fairly,near to stock Rom, I won't suggest any, just go to development and read up on the Roms, but also try a custom kernel.
Don't use task killers, they are counter productive if not used right.
I would also suggest going through what you have enabled, the smart features can heavily affect battery, also poor signal, and it might well be you need to check your modem (baseband) and see if there are other more suitable ones.
Keep reading and searching and you will develop a good understanding of various ways to make this phone fly, just don't rush things.
And, backup, backup, backup! Enjoy
Better Battery Stats and Greenify from the market may help .

He's right, try flashing a more popular widely used stock firmware like the XXELLA rom or the recently released ones. Also do post screenshots of BetterBatteryStats.. Kernel wakelocks are major reasons why battery drains. Often IM+Social Media apps use network data in the background and are culprits behind wakelocks.
I for one can confirm the Facebook native app as being a major contributor to the problem.
You should also check if "Fast Dormancy" is supported by your carrier or not? FD is by default enabled on the S3, disabling can save substantial amount of battery life. You can do so by downloading "Fast Dormancy Toggle App" from PlayStore.
As for custom roms, it really depends on user experience. I have used Omega rom and it easily lasted a day and half for me with good usage.
Currently I'm running CyanogenMod 10.1 and it lasts me 2 days
post betterbatterystats screen
Try custom roms
I've been a long time fan of Cyanogemod and being able to get rid of touchwiz has always been a must . However, lately every cm10.1 nightly I try has terrible battery life . Having factory reset and flashed multiple AOSP ROM's I am yet to find one that doesn't have it's battery consumed by Android OS.
I have seen that many others are also having problems with battery life , however some people are reporting results much better than mine.
Has anyone found a 4.2 AOSP rom that can last a day and that they would say is usable as a daily driver ?
I use the latest stable version of rootbox Rom with the latest siyah kernel. The battery life of the rom with the stock cm kernel wasn't that good in itself but the siyah kernel seems to have made a pretty big difference. If you like cm you can still use this kernel. It has options to further save battery life with undervolting but haven't tried that yet.

asking that is against the rules, try them yourself
Hey guys. I have been using this site for a while and have just made a new account. I look forward to some helpful chaps
PHONE: GALAXY ACE GT-S5830
I have installed 4 different types of Cyanogenmod (CM 10.1 Pro, etc.) and have found a problem. Even after battery calibration (thank google play ) i have always received severe battery drain. Eg. I would leave my phone on charge overnight. In the morning I would wake up and I could basically watch it go down like a timer. About 2 minutes after unplugging the phone it would have gone down to 81%, even without using the phone!
I know this isn't the ROM's fault since it has happened on numerous ROM's, as I said.
Also, after it reaches about 20% it sometimes slows down the drainage.
I don't get this problem on the stock ROM. I really want to use the stock ROM and UI (TW) cause its got many features, but wanna keep Jellybean cause of BBM for Android coming out soon. If there is any type of ROM which looks just like the original Stock ROM for SGA but with JB installed, could someone please point me in the right direction for it?
Many Regards & looking forward to a ahppy community, HelloMrBrandon. :highfive:
Update: BTW I know I shouldn't post Q&A here. But I couldn't find the right spot for them. Sooooorrryyyyy!
PING!
at first: this is not a "whats the best rom" thread.
i have 2 very focused questions:
What are the idle times with those different roms?
Are there some Main feature differences?
Aktually im running cm11 m5 snapshot with smartassv2 Governor. its smooth but the battery life is kinda poor.
Im looking for a rom with long battery life. And i dont care about google now, talking to my phone(ok google) nor i need the special features from the standart samsung rom.
Would be realy helpfull if u can review to my questions. Greetings!
pls apologize my bad english.
1 each phone is different depending on what's installed and running.
2 read there threads or flash each ROM and find out that way. You forgot about aokp?

2. thx for informing abaout aokp!
1. im asking for someone who did a test with the same phone and all roms. i dont ask for different situations, i sked fpr idle time and features!
Probably there is somebody out there who testet it and can present his results

There are no definitive results, I have used both and I keep coming back to Omni due to the fact that on SlimKat music stutters like crazy when the screen is locked. Also, Omni updates are small enough to update often without having to download a complete update, to many users this a huge deal due to data limitations in certain countries. As for usage, idle time etc, like stated before, that depends entirely on what is installed on your device. Install a bunch of apps that need to constantly receive data updates and you will have battery drain and very little deep sleep. Where features are concerned, you kinda learn to live with limitations due to missing features on a specific rom. If you really want, you can most likely find an app that will bring a missing feature to a rom. I see a lot of people throwing their toys out the cot because one of the other does not have a specific feature implimented, yet the developers have done so with good reason, usually either performance or battery life.
With all said, there are many roms out there, Omni and SlimKat aren't the only players. It's difficult to compare roms nowadays because you are never quite sure if your kernel tweaking or custom kernel with it's hundreds of tweaks is the reason for a device not going into deep sleep either.
Give them all a try and decide for yourself, nandroid backups and apps like Titanium Backup makes it so easy.

Thx for your long, interessting and helping text!
im missing only 1 thing. if someone flashes all roms, doesnt install any apps. Only new rom and full wipe before, restart and tracks the time the phone has battery. Dont u think this is a possibility to compare the roms battery usage? i think there is no one who does this, but i probably will try this and put down a little table here. so people like me are able to see the rom with the best battery efficiency. so if they decide this rom has not enough performance, they can switch to "battery efficiency Number 2" and so on.

Sure you can do what you stated but bear in mind how will you compare the battery life across roms..
There should be some standardized test... Like looping video playback or some other method which does not change based on you usage habits..
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk
Pa is another you're missing from you're list of developed roms. What you could do is test video playback, calls incoming/outgoing,one game of choice "high end battery draining game" and compere them all. As for the kernel tuning.. Read about what really happens and you will fine not a lot does happen with UV/uc .

You can compare but you have to use that phone for more days not like just one and you have to full charge and then discharge 2 or 3 times till the phone make the correct battery stats. So i think you can test but better with daily use or get an app that drains battey faster well i think this may work
