[Q] 3g sleep mode script or mod? - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone i am currently running sacs sense 3.0 rom which to me is the most stable with v6 supercharge script
Ive changed my kernal to chopsuey 9.1 with the bfs,uv,.. etc
Im gettin decent battery life but i know it can do better
Now ive had other roms where 3g disapears when phone is in standby and when you turn screen back on 3g comes back. I would love to have that on my phone
Does anyone know how to get it or put it?
I think that would make my battery life be even better
Also anyone know why my display would be at 50% using battery when i check whats using my battery if
My brightness is at 18%

The 3g on and off when you turn off the screen is a app Its called juice defender

You can also uncheck always-on mobile network under the wireless networks settings under mobile network.

Thanks for the replies
I will try juice defender...
I will also try to uncheck that setting
But is their a dofferent way to make the 3g not be in use when in standby
Or is it coocked in roms when they make them..

You should try a couple different kernels. The right kernel can make all the difference.

Can rooting help your battery life?

I just rooted my phone and installed CM10a couple days ago. I love jelly bean and having my phone debloated.
My question is.... are there any roms or settings on the roms that can help me get get better battery life? The battery life on my gs3 is good but not great... I selected the powersave feature on the CPU governor, turned down my brightness, turned off gps and bluetooth. I have been thinking about installing juice defender but I have had it previously and got tired of turning it off when I streamed pandora.
I am a pretty heavy user... about 1-3 hours of screen time per charge. I have seen some pretty rediculous stats out there and would like to be able to achieve a full 24 hours. :fingers-crossed:
I had my gs2 rooted and it seemed to get better battery life than the gs3 (rooted vs rooted). There was no comparison when it came to stock vs. stock.
Any tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Could you please elaborate how I should go about switching to that setup from kernal version 3.0.42 and the nightly CM10?
I have also had problems figuring out how to properly backup with nandroid or titanium. I can never get the backups to load
I am ready to try pretty much anything to try and get some premium battery life and performance.
I really appreciate your help and input. THANKS! :good:
Basically ya download the up to date versions of the aokp ROM and the KT kernel for aosp jb. Then ya open to recovery and first go to backup/restore and make your nandroid. You can decide whether or not you want it on internal SD or external. Once that's done ya wipe your system & caches like ya did for cm10. Then flash the ROM. After the ROM then flash gapps & fix permissions and reboot. Let the ROM settle and then boot to recovery, clear cache again and flash kernel then reboot. My instructions are a broad guideline though. I'd make sure to fully read both the aokp & kernel OP'S to get a warm and fuzzy on what your doing

seems like you are new at this so let me add a new thing, the S3 has amazing battery currently 9 hours up time and 1.5h screen on time and still 50% left and that is very light usage. Usually I listen to music play games watch movies and after 12 hours i still have about 10% left.
For starters cycle the battery a few time. Charge 100% and let it die 0% not charging in between, take out the battery and put it back in. Let it charge to 100% and and do this a another 2 times during a week. This will will use all the cells in the battery and should give you a boost. I have herd following above but charging while off may help, but cant confirm.
The next thing to do is remove bloatware or app you will never use, some of these apps will just load up in memory and use up your battery. Most apps can be disabled in Settings > Application Manager > All. Things like Allshare Play can be disabled, some apps like video hub may have gotten an update that needs to be removed before it can be disabled, this is the same as freezing in Titanium Backup. BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU DISABLE BECAUSE THERE MAYBE NEGATIVE EFFECTS.
This is what I have done and my battery has been amazing and never use power saving mode, actually i took it a step further and downloaded system tuner and disabled non essential apps like Vplayer from even booting at start-up.
Flashing different kernals and ROM can greatly improve battery life but you loose OTA and forced to wipe which i got tried of doing so i stick with stock. Waiting for CM10 to go stable then i will switch. The S3 stock is still snappy and never lags and for me battery life is very good.
thank you both very much. I just installed the AOKP rom and I will try the power cycles next time my battery dies. One question on the AOKP... I cannot figure out how to change or add lockscreen icons. and yes I have looked at the lockscreen option on ROM control. I can post screenshots if you dont believe me lol

We believe you because those lock screen options haven't been implimented in the ROM yet. If its a must have for you I'm pretty sure ktoonzes aosp jellybean kernel will work with CM10.

One other question. My network constantly switches from 4g to HSPA to 3g. When my phone was stock it would stay on 4g (lte) 99.9 %.. is this normal? I would prefer it to stay on 4g. I also think it might hurt battery life since its constantly switching even though lte is a battery hog.

What rom are you on? I'd love mine to switch to 3g the majority of the time, LTE is such a hog, there's no way that switching it down is going to use more battery than staying on LTE full-time.

[Q] Best Jelly bean Rom For battery Life

I'm wondering what ROM people have found to be best for battery life? I'm hoping to find something close to the stock Jelly Bean. I currently get about 6-8 hours on a charge and really need my phone to last me at least 12 hours. I'm not doing anything major just some email and texts maybe a short phone call.
Any advice would be appreciated.
You should be getting closer to 13 hrs
The stock rom is fine
Its your settings causing this
Keep wifi gps off #1
Brightness down
Turn sync off in settings
Manually push for your data
Use power saving mode
Set screen timeout to 15 or 30 seconds
Iff rooted govern the cpu down some
With rom tool box app
Not to many others have bad battery life
Good luck

My answer: switch to aosp. Though make sure you're not syncing unneeded crap, and brightness also affects battery life.
Are you connected to a 4G LTE network alot? I am running GOODNESS JB and I can usually get about 2 days worth if I'm not on 4G. If I am constantly connected to 4G I maybe able to get 6 hours of battery life.

My Gps was already off, I will try some of the other things you suggested, I don't see sync in the settings. I will also turn of the wifi when I'm not using it.
Its been awhile since I looked but the festure to turn sync on and off through account /settings is now crammed deep into ics and jb somewhere
It used to be right under settings accounts and sync when USING GB
Its all trial and error
Adjust adjust adjust , main thing is keep off or down on BRIGHTNESS AND GPS AND WIFI AND SYNC

[Q] ICS Battery Drain

I am experiencing tons of wakeups by com.android.phone regardless of 3G or LTE which drains my battery 6%+ per hour. However, if I have wifi, the drain drops to minimal. I turned off Fast Dormancy already, Any suggestion or fix?

Which stock ICS are you running? Do you have wind kernel installed? Download and run better battery stats to see what wake locks you have. In regards to Fast Dormancy disabling it will either give you better or worse battery life. What is it? Its a tech used by the phone company to save battery power by putting the phone's radio in a low power state yet never relinquishing the data connection, so when you wake up your phone it doesn't have to spend the 3-5 sec reestablishing the data connection. The phone's software works hand in hand with this, however if your phone co in your area doesn't support it the phone's software will never let it sleep, therefore disabling fast dormancy will improve battery life. However if you have it disabled and your area supports it your data connection will never be released and therefore your phone's radio will never be shut off using battery. On top of that this is only a function of an HSPA/3G coverage area. With 2g (edge) or LTE its meaningless. Two more suggestions:
1. Power off the phone and remove the battery for 30 sec - 1 min. Then reassemble and power back on. For some reason this will fix the deep sleep suspend wake lock.
2. If you are rooted and have cwm installed, boot your phone into recovery. Create a backup. Reformat the system and data partitions. Reinstall your ROM, then go to restore/backup and select advanced restore. Select data then the backup just done. After complete reboot.
Good luck.

Unfortunately No. Battery still drains 7%+ per hour on mobile network. On wifi, it's 1%. I have turn on Fast Dormancy just for the sake of it. Maybe need to move to CM 10.1. However, I play games on the phone sometimes and enjoy the snappy response of ICS.
I've been having problems with battery drain, from 6-7% an hour to more than 15% with the latest CM RC.
Changed over to Pac Rom, seems to be a lot better for battery power so far but a bit laggy.

A couple more things to try:
Wind kernel 3.6
Disable syncing.
Make sure you are not using LG supplied weather app widget bad power hog.
If disabling Sync works but you still need to get things like email notifications try using DS battery saver from the play store.

I will try Wind 3.6 and had tried Juice Defender and DS Battery Saver, but with 4G, the phone cannot go into deep sleep. It keeps searching for network, hence the wakelocks. I doubt Wind 3.6 can resolve the issue. Anyway I can use a different com.android.phone?

Try this:
Settings
Wireless & Network: Select MORE
Select MOBILE NETWORK
Select NETWORK MODE
Select GSM/WCDMA Auto
This will turn LTE off and should fix you issue, in most instances HSPA+ (4G on AT&T) download speeds are just as fast as LTE without the power issues.

In the past I had issues with the whatsapp creating wake locks. Now this goes back to last year but I stopped using that app because of those issues. Try freezing it and reboot. Also when is the last time you calibrated your battery? Just in case you don't know: charge to 100%, while still plugged in reboot into recovery and wipe battery stats, then reboot your phone and unplug. Keep your phone off the charger till the battery goes dead and the phone powers down on its own. Then charge to 100% with the phone off. Also I think I asked this before which version of v20 are you running?

[Q] HELP cell standby huge battery drain[tried each n everything prb still persists]

hey guys...
i have tried everything to stop the battery drain
switched to many different roms
under-clocked processor to 768mhz
set a black wallpaper
brightness set to minimal
did battery calibration
switched of all background processes and made sure no location seeking programs works.
used CPU spy, the cell does go to deep sleep
tried juice defender and deep sleep battery saver
but nothing seemed to work
phone locked on full charge drains 40 to 50% in night without using.
then after a few days later i restored everything and opened airplane mode and I went to sleep, in the morning the battery didn't went low a single percent. battery health is good as works really well on airplane mode.
i have low signal issues but i get text msgs and calls with no problems at all, and my explorer and s3 seems to perform well
my all type pf connectivity is off example: location access WiFi Bluetooth etc only gsm is working, i manually selected the network and set it to gsm only rather them auto from *#*#4636#*#*.
what shall i do??
i searched and tried many things from the internet.
i really want those calls i cant always be on airplane mode, the problem is 200% of the antenna draining juice to get more signals. please help.
is there any way to stop the battery drain or restricting the antenna to consume less juice?
PS:using cm10.1 by nightly version:19 Aug 13.
anyone??
one thing more i installed better battery stats it says
no or unknown signal
no data connection
and it is running continuously like since i installed betterbatterystats.
where can i get this bug?? or disable this service??
please give a detailed explanation.
There are a few good apps to try I use
battery mix (I think this is one of the best) and wakelock detector both from my the market.

Battery drain
I´m having same problems with my DHD, currently im using 4.2.2 Samsation (was it named like that but anyways 4.2.2). Without using phone it still drains 40% in few hours.. I got replacement battery from eBay and thought that would help but didnt help at all. I´ve tried different roms but would like to have newest roms without battery draining so much, so could someone share how to get it better?
And about changing radio, was there a possibility that you may brick ur device if installing wrong radio?
Thanks already!

yup there was nothing, no wakelocks etc i even underclocked my processor to 768mhz... the thing is the signal reception cause when i turn the cell in airplane mode and leave it over night the battery doesnt goes down a single percent. it acts solid.
i get around 18 asu signals at my place i check it from *#*#4636#*#*
but the thing is i was using an HTC explorer before switching to desire hd and with the gsm mode(no airplane mode) the battry stayed solid like the desire hd one with airplane mode(didnt dropped a single percent) at the same house same place.
dont know what going on.
