Hi
Last night i installed the [ROM][AOSP][JB][4.1.1][STABLE] SuperNexus - I9300 - BUILD 1 on my Galaxy S3 device and i noticed my battery is draining out like crazy. Cell Standby and Screen are using more than 40% each.
When i was using Ice Cream Sandwich i had the same problem but after installing the battery fix it all worked so tried the fix on JB and nothing.
Is there any other fix or solution for this?
Thanks.
No fix for this until cm sorts it. Live with it or go back to ics I'm afraid mate

That is not repeat not a battery fix if you read the post it fixes a misreported figure only .
battery drain is user start with Better Battery Stats and look for wakelocks .
Battery requires five days use from flashing a new rom .

Screen will always use 40%+ unless you aren't using your phone.

Running the same build myself and experienced an 18% drop last night on standby with Wi-Fi on over 7 hours, i have flashed the latest Siyah kernel update today and ive every confidence this will increase battery life as when i checked the kernel wakelocks this morning the wakelocks were big, the CM kernel i believe is the main culprit in this instance.
Also take into consideration any apps / widgets you have which update and any sTuff you rarely or never use freeze in Titanium backup and also go into advanced in Wi-Fi and set to never or only when plugged in and this will make a difference.
And finally don't use Juice Defender or any other battery saving apps as they use up more battery than they save!

I installed syiah kernel s3-v1.5beta5 over CWM yesterday and still no change, Cell Standby is now using 70% while screen dropped to 7%. I will
now try to disable all automatic updates.
After installing [ROM][AOSP] [4.1.1] Liquid JellyBean Beta 1.1 battery works pretty good without even installing kernel 1.5beta4.
Cell standby dropped to 37% and Screen to 27%
I must say this ROM works faster and adds a few cool options for personalization.

- I recommend you to go to stock or modified ICS , simply functioning Roms and stable .
- JB you can flash it just for fun , still under construction and testing , can't litterly judge it .
You may want to try different modems. Cell standby is mostly not influenced by the ROM but your reception and the flashed modem.

My operator is Movistar from Spain and i am currently outside of the country. I flashed my S3 to JB after leaving the country and now i have no reception, can this be the reason why Cell Standby is always around 70%?

I am using this Rom as well and i must say it`s very good. Have a lot setup possibilities, and runs very smooth. For me i`ts the best JB Rom, better than SuperNexus. Just have the one issue - camera!
Hey friends I am currently running the OMEGA v28 4.1.1 JB ROM on my international GS3 i9300 and it is also rooted of course and I don't think I'm being paranoid but my battery life has took a massive drop since rooting my device. I am not overclocking mu CPU and I have tried out some rooted apps like battery saver for example and I actually think it made it worse. I have all the usual setting disabled to allow for optimal battery life like brightness right down, auto sync off, wi-fi off when the phone is locked I also only use the wi-fi manually if and when I need it and all that good stuff like smart stay and vibration off. I am wondering if anyone knows of something I'm not trying???
Had it charged to 100% this morning at 9PM and by 1PM I'm down to 79% already and I haven't made any calls and only used it to check my email and facebook for around 10 mins!!! is this normal for everyone else???
:crying::crying::crying:
Cheers
Gary
Sound normal for Sammy JB rom.
Some said Facebook is also causing the battery drains.

Did you reset your battery stats? Charge to 100%, reset battery stats from CWM or delete batterystats.bin -file, let the battery run out.
You might want to use currentwidget to log your battery usage.
I noticed big battery drop between 4.0.4 and 4.1.1 used to get 24 hours one charge 4 hours screen time. Now I get only about 12 hours.
Might just be me :/

I'm using also omega rom v28, have it installed recently. I cannot say how good is the battery with this rom, but so far I have like 56% in 20h, with 2h screen, sopcast 30min, voice cals 37mins....etc (also using wifi manually when needed)
Try out different roms and find out what works for you.
You can also use an app like BetterBatteryStats to check what's draining your battery. Its just to check whats use power.
Don't use batterysaving apps most of the time they are making it worse
I'm running Omega ROM V27.2 and yes it's normal to have a difference about battery life between ICS & JB.
To improve my battery life I installed the phenomenal extreme kernel, and now I'm totally happy with it. You should take a look to its topic in the GS3 Android Development forum. The dev developed 3 versions of his kernel to fit to most of the phone.
Also as others told you, you should get BBS app to point out the wakelocks & define which app is your problem.
Personally, I'm at 45% charged, and already used it during 21h 10m including more than 2 hours screen on. My auto-sync is always on and my WiFi only when I enable it. I'm using a live wallpaper and a lot Twitter.
When I do nothing I can reach more than 2 days.

Hallo,
I have the OMEGA v28 4.1.1 JB ROM flashed on Thuersday and i´m testing the ROM at a long time.
I use the Phenomenal4.0Medium Kernel and i must say the BatteryLife is very good. I`m working over 15 ours with him and i have 58 % on it.
My WIFI is every time on and Autosync when i use my calender and planners. For me a good app handdling battery life is "GREENPower" in Market Place.
But it´s my idea.

As he recommends ...identifying and reducing your wakelocks should be your primary concern. Been reading loads from developers that the insecure jb kernels themselves should already provide good battery management.

Hey guys, if you are going to use custom ROM's you should be prepared for bad battery. The developers are adding so many different features and hacking certain apps to make them work in their ROM's without a lot of investigation into what the reprecussions to battery are. I used to always use custom ROM's but haven't installed one in about 6 months and haven't any problems with battery life. I have the latest JB on my 9300 and battery life is very good. I use GSAM to watch apps that want to go rouge and start sucking battery life. Media Player Service is a big offender as is Facebook. Also stock widgets that get placed by these JB ROM's are always pinging for new data and kill battery quickly. Get rid of them! If you have a stock ROM and are getting bad battery, 99% of the time it will be bad apps, your job is to determine which ones they are and apps like betterbatterystats and GSAM work great to help diagnose the issue.
can anybody else confirm the above post? because i am not sure about the custom roms.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
I will soon have an S3 so I cannot speak specifically about this device / ROM(s).
What I know from using a lot of Android devices and testing original ROMs vs. custom ROMs:
- original ROMs have too much garbage built-in apps and are slower
- original ROMs have everything working
- custom ROMs are much cleaner and faster
- custom ROMs have (too) much problems, something always not working 100%
- custom ROMs usually have stability & battery issues
My personal advice:
- install latest ORIGINAL ROM.
- root it
- install the free app "App Backup & Restore" from Google Play
- search unuseful apps from Samsung (& others) and block the autorun of these apps (note: do not block basic android or samsung apps, as phone, contacts, etc)
I use this method for 1.5 years and this way my Android is clean (you can save over 100-150Mb RAM), FAST and much better battery. Try it.
In the end, if original ROMs have too many original apps, custom ROMs have to many tweeks that in the end, for my taste, the original ROMs + App Backup & Restore win hands down.

I have always had custom roms on all my android devices but at the moment I am running stock ics in my s3.
I don't think the S3 needs it.
To be honest I find a lot of the stock based roms full of changes I don't really need, ARHD was a great Rom but recently has started to lag really badly for me (and some other users) so I went back to stock just to see and so far I can't complain. Smooth, fast and the battery is as good if not better than the custom roms.
If the camera didn't suck so bad on AOSP I would be there in a instant

In the past few months my battery life has been terrible. I can't seem to figure out why.
I've bough 3 new original Samsung batteries but that didn't help either.
I've just flashed to the new Cyanogen rom but the drain still continues.
I get around 5.5 hours of battery when idle.
Any suggestions as to what I should do?
If I won't be able to solve it I'll probably have to buy a new handset which I really want to avoid doing.
Thanks in advance

Hey everyone
I got little problem here
So here is the situation it had happen 3 times this weak to me
When am using my phone (RR3 or facebook...) it freeze or lagged sometime,
That is natural to happen sometime
But in those 10 days when it lag it freeze for 30 sec/ 1 min
Then it restarts, but when it’s restarted the battery is gone, from 72% to 5% in, how is that possible ???? (pic 1)
And if I don’t put it in charge immediately it will just turn off after minutes!
_Still when I put it in charge and after like 20 min in charge I noticed that had already reached 80% just like if it had not started charging from 5% but from 60% !!! (pic 2)
_And sometime without any freeze or lag, it just turn off after showing that the battery is low 20%
So what is that?? A system / Hardware / or battery life problem??
I have this phone GS2 from 3 year now, and I’m using it like a geek
You could have a bad battery. When it drops to 5%, pull the battery before it fully boots. Wait 10 seconds, and put it back in, and then turn back on. Should help with the battery level indicator

Yes that's what I was just thinking about, considering that the life of the battery is normal if everything works fine. Well now I'm thinking that all what i need is to update from 4.0.2 to 4.2.2
So is there anyone like a best version of Android

Buddy, you haven't seen the real part of Android yet. Considering your battery issue, remove the battery and simply touch it in the middle. If the battery is swollen or bloated, then you need a new battery (3 years of usage make your battery weaker and subject to faster draining due to deformation of the cells inside the battery). In no doubt, Samsung's Touchwiz is THE main cause of lagging and drain, so here are my suggestions on ROMs that can fix your problem:
1- For 2.3 GB ROMs, go for CyanogenMod 7.2.0 with siyah kernel 2.6 (google the kernel name to find it or ask me for a link just in case)
2- For 4.0 ICS ROMs, go for CyanogenMod 9 stable on get.cm and go for Siyah 5.0.1 stable for more hardware customizing.
3- For 4.1 JB ROMs. well, you can grab CyanogenMod 10 or SlimBean 4.1 old release for the I9100 but I recommend skipping this version of Android (it's too boring)
4- For 4.2 JB ROMs, try Cyanogenmod 10.1.3 stable. if you love Touchwiz and want a stock experience, try Revolution Rom UX build 2 which is too close to an official 4.2 stock update. When it comes to me, SuperNexus 2.0 is the best 4.2.2 ROM I ever used. Flash Dorimanx 9.43 stable to get more out of your device just in case buddy.
5- For 4.3 JB ROMs, go for CyanogenMod 10.2, or SlimBean 4.3 build 2.2 stable (too awesome), or PAC-MAN ROM, or Carbon, Cyanfox...
6- For 4.4 KK ROMs, try out Cyanogenmod 11.0 nightlies or sanpshots, or go for OmniRom 4.4, or Cyanfox 4.4, or SlimKat, BeanStalk...
It's your choice, and I would recommend installing Dorimanx Kernel above the ROM you choose in order to configure your CPU clock speed and processor governers according to your kind of usage. Good luck :good:

Always happy to help fellow users
Well, the thing is CyanogenMod is no no doubt the best, but as for the 11.0 version, no full stable ROM is out there (at least not the tag), but sure-thing it is stable and getting better through every nightly. To get the daily nightlies which are somewhat experimental and buggy, visit get.cm/?device=i9100 and everything is there.
The nearest or at least more stable version of CyanogenMod 11 is the snapshot release (labeled "M") and it's there too. In case your Internet speed ain't too fast, download it through this torrent file I did (It's CyanogenMod 11 M4): http://burnbit.com/download/280529/cm_11_20140308_SNAPSHOT_M4_i9100_zip
Happy flashing :fingers-crossed:

ho to all i've bought an used s2 that has a problem with the battery. it drains very fast, even with al services disabled. i've bought a brand new samsung battery and also a non original battery with more mha, but the phone discharges always very fast. i'v try to recalibrate the battery with no results...i've last cyanogen rom on it
try change ROM or kernel
Wich rom and kernel do you suggest me
My suggestion:
1. check your battery stats and google fixes to apps that drain ur battery
2. install greenify
3. install custom roms, my suggestion: slimsaber + dorimanx
Whats dorimanx

Hi, I have got very same problem! I spent like last two years with trying different ROMs. I tried CM, Omega, NeatROM,... but never found one ROM which will not drain battery so quickly...
My girlfriend has got Alcatel OT6010 which has got similar specs as S2 and her phone lasts for 4 days! if she is not on internet all the time. Mine with new extended battery, lasts maximum 2 days max. I am really dissapointed about that
Therefore I would like to ask someone whether he/she can recommend some stable (not alpha or beta) ROM with Android 4.1 or above. Different Kernel is also welcome.
I am looking forward for any help on this!

Since you've tested many roms already, the problem could be caused by old circuitry on the phone. My phone last for 2 days max without using it too, although choosing the right kernel for you could slightly increase battery life (e.g dorimanx or apolo). In terms of stability, cyanogenmod is never perfect, don't use slimsaber, neat rom was quite stable for me, paranoid android was ok, never tried cyan fox, PAC rom isn't going to be updated for a while and is nightlies only, carbon rom is nightlies only. So yeah, just go with neat rom or paranoid android (stable)or cm11 (and wait for next snapshot).
Can i use paranoid with dorimanx?
I haven't had any problems so far with slim saber.
Have you tried the app 'Greenify' yet? It can hibernate apps that drain battery in background.
Another suggestion: Tasker app
Create profiles that for example turn on / off mobile data.
2 days battery life, that's epic for the s2..I get 1 day max at the mo ...and never had much more on any ROM/kernal
phantomEVO said:

Yeah you can. You just need to check what version of dorimanx you install.
There is one for ics/jelly bean and one for kitkat.
And depending on what version of s2 you have you need to check what rom you install. Not sure if dorimanx is available for i9100g
By the way in terms of battery drainage I faced the same problem.
For me it had several causes:
1. My mobile connection wasn't very good and therefore my phone got hot while searching good signal - I flashed a new modem to improve connection... If this won't help a new provider is needed I guess
2. Too many apps running in the background - as already said in a post above greenify will help there a lot as it prevents app from starting without you wanting it
3. Also I installed a new kernel - I'm using dorimanx too. It's battery profile can help a lot
4. Pure performances x (Zeno edition) my phone got a lot faster after flashing this. Also it drains less battery when being idle.
Hope this can help you.
