That's quite impressive, to be honest. With a stock battery, as well?

AOKP - and what kernel, governor, etc?
Thanks

@mixtapes08 - hahahaha wow, amazing .. did you turn of data or put it in airplane mode ? i dint do it and i got till here, please give details

Im guessing no time/ very little time browsing because its a heavy battery user and it would show up as a part of your batter drainers.

Yea, im sure I can put on a black background and leave my screen on and pull 6+hrs of "screen time". I'm going to play Devils advocate here and say this number wasn't achieved with typical phone usage, with data on etc.

Considering screen is then followed by no other applications that are actually using it, it's possible. Either way, that's actually pretty impressive.

guys, this is no gimmick, i had 2g on and wifi too for about 2-3 hours, no browsing but i was using whatsapp and side by side i was theming the phone using gallery and the other apps required to make a unique homescreen, im not stupid to sit with my phone idle on for 6 hours :/
if you see in the general section, ive crossed 6 hours before with nmv rom so its not something im faking up

[Q] Battery drain.

I take the bus everyday for 45min going and coming from work.
I have 4g most of the time and about 7-10min I'm locked onto 2g/edge
Now question is how much would my battery drain from the ups and downs of signal?
And BTW I use Google music sometimes. And ALL the time I'm either here looking thru XDA or using the browser.
GPS And locations are off as well.
Thanks!

That question can't be answered, it all depends on too much.
45 minutes with screen on in a bad signal area and on 4g? 15% or so? Impossible to guess.

Yea it was to hard for me to figure out. Thought I might ask here. Well I just got off the bus and my phones at 65% after 1hr screen on.

You're in a bad signal area, 4g, music. That could be right actually..
Stock kernel? If so try something else. Trinity, Franco.

Try gsm auto prl instead of wcdma preferred.

I just flashed images yesterday hoping for better battery after using efrants guide.
I will try a different kernel each day
I'm coming from a gs3, trinity worked well. Will have to try that tomorrow on my ride home.
Also Just got this phone on Friday.
Still need a lot of testing to do.

Is this decent battery life?

Hi all,
I'm considering buying a new OEM battery for my 2.5 year old mt4g. I am rooted and running a custom rom, MyTouch UX 3.0 at the moment, but I usually use the CodeFireX AOSP Jelly Bean rom. Here is a screenshot of my current battery usage:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So around 6-7 hours with wifi turned off and the phone in my pocket at school. Its okay-ish for a 2 year old battery, but should I go on amazon and buy myself an OEM battery for $7? Also, does anybody know a kernel for CodeFire X that gives good battery life? Feedback please...

What's your SOT?
Should post a screen shot of that too considering it's taking 75% of your battery. So I'm thinking about 2 1/2 hours?

Not quite sure what you mean, but I can tell you that since I posted that (13 minutes) I now have 50% battery. I'm on airplane mode, so cell standby is off.

It SEEMS a little low, but I've seen worse. If you're looking for a new battery check out Anker.

battery is dead. i've got a new one!

OK guys, I got the battery from the above post. Just one last problem. Since the battery is extended, my meter says the battery is full when its really only around 90%. This can be fixed by charging while the phone is off. Since I am rooted, I tried to clear the battery stats in cwm, but the problems still there

Post your expectations from next update to our GT -I9300

Hi guys!!
I wanna know whole of your expectations from the next update for our S3. As tomorrow is Monday, also the expected big day like said by @Faryaab, there might be an update rolling out with either a version change or some techincal feature introduction as seen in screenshots relating to light effect on lock screen....post your anticipations and fingers crossed !!!
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium

1) will be not rolled out and will be a leak, at 99.9%
2) also settings are the same as s4

3) who know? i expect same launcehr/widgets and most of camera features.. better ram managment if possible and better calibrated colors..

i want all the feature that the S4 has, plus some UI change !!

I'll be happy with the new camera features.
Doesnt like the new settings but doesnt really care if they include a better ram management cuz right now is reaaally bad.

I would like see new keyboard with " @" and ".com". Also something easier to move cursor between words/letters, custom gallery folders, customized message themes, many, many things which probably i will never see and using apps make phone slow and laggy

s health! mom please!!

Better ram management is enough

People will be disappointed because they have expectations that aren't in tune with the actual 4.2 update, so expect a lot of complaining

1.Want it to be SOLID STABLE
2.Want better battery life.
3.Would like lack of lags on the dialer, faster contact list.
That is what I expect from Samsung
Thanks

That's a condition of WiFi Calling for T-Mobile with WiFi as the "preferred" method of connectivity. No need for concern there.

Maybe WiFi calling is draining your battery life. Its still hard to see where you are at % wise. Where was the battery at with 1.4 hours of screen time?

That seems pretty good.. 2 hours of screen time down on 20%.. that means you would possibly get 10 hours of screen time before it dies...
