Normal battery usage? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I've just bought the Galaxy S3 and as expected, I play with it a lot as it's a new toy. I was just wondering if the battery usuage is as expected from this phone? I know in a few weeks the battery will last longer as I wont play with as much as I am now. Here are some screenshots:

For stock rom, your battery usage looks good and normal. Don't worry about the cell standby usage. It just reporting wrong figure.

Yeah, it's normal. Sometimes in weekends I'm playing on it a lot and looks pretty similar with your results.
However, I have it for over 2 months already, so after 2 months, a normal day will look like this:

Sorry, can't post links yet

Looks pretty normal to me too...

Might be a battery or kernel problem. Have you tried any recent kernel to see if it performs better?
No I've been using same kernel for a few Weeks without problem...just happened in last couple of days!

[Q] tegra_spi.1 is partying hard all night, every night

For some reason, every night when my MB860 is plugged into the charger, the tegra_spi.1 system process goes nuts with CPU usage. With a name like "tegra" I assume it has something to do with the GPU, but a quick google and forum search gave me no answers other than a few people with a Photon having a similar problem, but no one seems to know why. I have no live wallpaper, or any other apps/widgets running that I can think would be using the GPU. Very strange that it only goes nuts when I'm not using the phone.
It isn't terribly important, because it only seems to happen when the phone is charging, so I'm not worried about battery drain. But I am worried about wear and tear; my experience with PCs is that the more you use a component, the shorter its lifespan will be.
Here's a couple screenshots from System Panel:

Anyone know what might be causing this? I am running the latest October build of mmontuori's MROM on an Atrix MB860.

Samsung Galaxy S II Plus CM12.1 Awful Battery Life

Hey everybody.
I've been using S2 Plus for two years on stock rooted rom, never liked any other look of custom rom because it didn't looked like Samsung. So, after those two years battery started dying and i replaced it with original from Samsung store and phone lasted great with 2+ days of regular texts, calls, music fb and so on. So i wanted to se this Lollipop everyone was talking about and i liked it, a lot, but the problem was battery life on that rom. I couldn't go thru one day without having to charge it twice. Here are photos of battery stats.

Man I wish I could get that. I usually get between 3 and 4. But I notice that if you use the phone for longer periods, it's better than using it sporadically
Stock? What wireless provider? How much on Wifi?
The more continously you use your phone the higher will be the sot
I have experimented this
I got 8 hour sot and I used my phone continously i would say phone idle was only 1 or maybe 2 hour and on my daily usage i get around 5 to 6 hours
Cheers ?

[Q] What is the mdnsd process and why I'd it using so much battery?

Hello,
There's this process I noticed in my battery usage settings and it uses so much battery and I have no idea what it does. I took this into notice after I felt that my phone, an Amazon Fire Phone, was warmer than usual. So I checked my battery usage, and I see this service, mdnsd, using 50% of the battery. Now, I checked the internet and XDA about this issue, and it says that Firefox is causing this issue. Problem is that I do not have Firefox installed. Now, what I want is what does it do? Why is it using so much battery? And can I disable it, since I have a rooted phone running CyanogenMod 11.
Thank you in advance,
mechasnyper
