"Android System" battery usage - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, please help.
I don't understand why in Setting -> Battery "Android System" is on 35%, I tried factory reset, disable all sync and notifications. Guess what, nothing helps.
Thank you!

Depends what you did to your phone, you didn't say how far from stock it is so no can help.

I answered this question a few weeks ago.
I remember having this issue a few months back, go into your settings and go to battery. Is "Android OS" or "Android System" at the top or very close? If it is then the reason was (in my case) the device couldn't go into deep sleep mode which should happen when you lock your device, this means that instead of nearly shutting down and only having the data connection on (maybe wifi aswell), the device was running the same as before you hit the power button, the only difference is that the screen is off. There are different reasons for this happening but for my device it was a kernel issue, this means that these steps may not work for you, because like i said, this issue is different every time.
All i had to do to fix this issue was flash a new kernel, i chose the googy max kernel 1.7.9 for CWM, which is a continued development of the siyah kernel, after the developer abandoned it. forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2270158
You just have to flash it the same way you did Cyanogenmod, go into CWM (or another custom recovery) and flash it to the device.

I still have a problem and I don't understand why...
I can't use phone because it's draining battery to much.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2323847 I used this steps and didn't help, only I didn't understand what mean Flash ICS bootloader, but my counter is on zero.
I use XEH XXEMG4 4.1.2 software, can I try XXEMG4 software but from other country maybe?

If you don't have the option on the righthand-bottom side (Ruisonderdrukking=Noise Reduction) after you press the menu button during call then your Rom doesn't support it I Guess. I am on stock rom 2.3.6 (I9100XXKH3).

What bramandroid said. That said - what ROM are you on? Stock? (which I doubt, because a stock ROM would have this option) If not, you will probably have to find a phone.apk compatible with your ROM that has this option.
First thing we need to know is exactly what ROM you are currently running.
EDIT: Look at what user toxicdust posted just today (1/12/2012). It DOES involve popping open the phone, which can be a daunting task, but it offers a permanent solution without mucking with firmwares, apk's, or any custom ROMs. I intend to try this out this weekend, as I currently have a software solution (custom phone.apk with NR turned off by default), which works fine, but I would like the phone to work with NR enabled, as it is one of the reasons I bought the phone in the first place.

Galaxy S2 Screen touch problems

Hi everyone!
I have a small problem with my Galaxy S2 (I9100-europe).
The problem is that when I try and press on certain parts of the screen, it doesnt work o.0 BUT if I move my finger really quickly it will complet the test hmm (pict bellow).
Someone told me something like "you need to use a diferent charger", but I dont think thats the problem... what do you think?
Here are some tests:

}
Cheers and thanks!
P.S. I just updated to ICS (oficial) and still the same.
if thats happening while ur on charger, than yes change the charger.
if you are on custom ROM wipe and flash stock using odin not custom.
better to complete wipe including system partition.
Hi, thanks for the reply. This happens when charching and on the go too (not charching). I have stock ICS official.
Its very strange :/
Just wipe your cache/factory reset/erase all data/and then fully charge phone while off before first boot, last but not least wipe your battery stats in your cwm recovery,then boot, voila problem gone, and stop using diffrent charger's, use only samsung official charger

Thanks for the reply. I dont have CWM recovery (my phone is not rooted and I dont plan do root it). I will try and let him drain the batery, then I will wipe everything and recharg while off...
Oh yes, I allmost forgot... Example, when I am on google Play, there is a zone that is untouchble... (exmaple, the "acept and download" button) hmmm... seems like a Hardware problem lets just see after that test then
YES ITS A HARDWARE PROBLEM, YOU HAVE NON WORKING TOUCH LINES, YOU NEED TO REPLACE YOUR TOUCH SCREEN, HERE THE GUIDE, I KNOW YOU'LL NEVER DO IT, BUT IT'S THE THOUGHT THAT COUNTS, PRESS THANKS BUTTON

Camera - Black screen or fuzzy white lines?

I have a problem. Camera wont work. Most of the time its a black screen and other times it kinda works but i get the image below, and it takes pics like that but you cant view them. I removed apps that I have installed since I noticed this and nothing. Any ideas on this? I looked everywhere for about 2 weeks now. Not sure what to do....?
If a factory reset from the settings menu is recommended... what exactly happens to the custom ROM and kernel? Do they need to be reinstalled or...?
Running Shostock 2.5.6 And AJ 1.25s

Replacing the camera module doesnt work. Does the same thing. Any ideas? I doubt it since I have gotten ZERO replies. Was hoping at least ONE person on here has had this problem... guess not. Thanks anyway everyone!
I wonder if it's the kennel you're using. AJK 1.25s is pretty old, and while it is the Samsung version I can't remember if it's for the ICS version you're running; maybe AJ can pop in and reeducate me.
Anyway, a quick test would be to nandroid and flash the rom again without changing the kernel, then see if that solves your problem.
One other thing, don't factory reset from the settings menu, always do these things from the custom recovery.

I just flashed Shostock 3.0.2 the other day without flashing a kernel before I changed the camera module... same result. Thanks for the tip on factory reset.

Stuck on "Factory Mode" - Workaround

Hello guys:
I am experiencing an Issue with my Galaxy S5 (T-mobile version). Everytime I turn on my device, it switches to "Factory Mode" and it turns off my wi-fi connection. (I am attaching a screenshot). Then, when I try to turn on my wi-fi the phone go to reboot.

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I've already read some solutions using "root", and the root file explorer but I've not gotten any success (due to all tutorials are for other phones). Also I couldn't find any case for Galaxy S5. :crying:
Currently, as a workaround, I've installed CM11 and I didn't got the "Factory mode" message. Then I used "Omega Rom" and my phone works nice.
Well, I know you are the experts here and I would like to know if this problem could be related with the "Kernel"?. I got this conclusion because Omega Rom and CM11 have a different kernel name than Stock version.
I will appreciate all your comments to solve my doubts.
Thank you guys,:good:

I don't even know what Factory Mode is but if you're on Omega (a very good rom by the way) at this point you can probably flash the latest factory rom with Odin and it should function correctly. If not, then I'd have TMO replace the phone. There are several threads in this section (XDA T-Mobile S5 Forums) that explain how to flash the latest firmware.
Good Luck!
If I've helped please push the "Thanks" button.
In fact, that was the first thing I did and I 've not gotten success. I will wait for the Stock rom version with Android 5.0 and try again. Thank you

This is currently looping in logcat. Any way to fix except of full reset and a reflas

Suddenly phone got 5-10 fps out of nowhere and not changing back.
Decided to get logcat and see if something interesting came up (this is maybe 40 min after when phone started to be a little more "normal")
It started ok with some warning but soon went to application error and then access denied to files?!
I did not use Instagram(the app crashing) for over 12 hours before.
Now the last picture is running over and over again (same things coming up, like it was looped)
So am I forced to reset and flash from start? Should I be worried about anything?
Thanks in advance!
Edit: it changed to some really worth and (to me) worrying things so a full reset is mandatory when I get home...

It seems your software has been corrupted somehow. Yes, reflashing your stock firmware should fix this.
