1. No not at all just a visual fix.
2. Yes that is fine.
3. Only if you think it looks wrong or really high mine was over 20% most of the time til I flashed this now I'm at 2%
It does not extend your battery life, flashing it is just a cosmetic fix.
Your battery will last the same amount with or without it.
If you are in CM10, I think it is fixed already.
Thanks..

Hi All I just got the Galaxy Note 2 like a month ago and I've been loving it the only thing that I've been question mean if the battery life right now I'm getting like 4 hours of screen time and that's basically what I use to get with my Galaxy Nexus.
I just wonder if this is normal because I hear people a lot saying that they get several days of battery in for me I just feel like I have to charge it every day I also been monitoring the apps that I have and the background usage of them and nothing seems to be draining it.
I'm using android HD 6.0 with Perseus kernel
posting a screenshot right now..

On really heavy use, that is pretty normal. But for normal use or moderate ones, certainly not. Based on your screenshots, you have a lot of wakelocks, these are the number 1 culprits for unexpected battery drain, go get better battery stats and use the phone exactly as how you used it when you took those screenshots, then after a day or two, checkout better battery stats and find which app was actually causing those wakelocks.

JB has been known to have very bad battery life. If your not rooted, it's hard to help you from here. Maybe try some of the battery saver apps?
Juice defender but its outdated

Go to settings , backup and reset, turn off collect Diagnostics. Also keep wifi and gps off when not in use.

Turned off diagnostics how does that affect battery life? And that usage was on 4g just got home and turned on WiFi. GPS is always off. Anything else?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2
Turning GPS and WIFI off makes no difference. Those draw no power unless they're in use. WIFI only passively looks for a signal when it's on (every 30 seconds and gps is only active if an app uses it. Juice Defender will cause your battery to drain faster too.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
My battery life takes a dive when leaving GPS on all the time I don't know if it has something to do with jelly bean or not? It also keeps the phone awake, thus definitely using more battery.

So many devs would like to have a talk with you...
T-Mobile Galaxy S 3, stock and rooted.
Actually the 4G radio uses more battery than wifi. Wifi can turn itself off after inactivity, having apps syncing all the time if you have it on will drain battery immensely. Mainly because it's suppose to be sleeping yet it still running and working and those apps will have a great time doing that. also depends how long you had phone, I have read batteries tend to drain faster after about 5 to 6 months of use.

Ever since Jelly Bean (cm or tw) battery life just isn't what it was on ics I was pulling 20 hour runs with 4 hours of screen time with ics, now I can barely get 9-10 hours with 2 hours of screen time.. It's almost like I'm afraid to use my phone because it'll die.. Very frustrating ik. Hopefully Google addresses this issue in android 4.3 (presumably key lime pie)
Until then, turn off Google Now, and maybe try to pinpoint some random app possibly causing wake locks and not letting the phone sleep properly (with the use of this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1179809 )
Also, I highly recommend checking out this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1969741
Good luck
I use google now for weather info and sports scores. Ive disabled pretty much all bloatware and only my email syncs nothing else.

I know you said you don't plan to root, but if you're looking for some real results you may have to..I'm talking about flashing a new rom/kernel. If you do decide to go this way, I recommend a debloated and slimmed down tw rom with lean kernel.
Something like this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2024174
Heres an update worse if anything.

Dude rooting the device is the only way to go. If you plan on using it the rest if the stock then you're gonna have to deal with it. Sorry
Possibly a defective battery. You sure its a s3 and not a note 1? Lol

Its a possibility I would definatly try before your out of your return period even on stock your battery life should be at least 4hrs on time with 12-14 hrs standby I've had 2 sg3's one international and one u.s. and both had triple almost better than that buddy

My T-Mobile note 2 battery is draining extremely fast its NOT rooted. So I don't understand why isn't draining so fast someone please help. And if anyone is having this same problem how did you fix it without getting a replacement device.

See if anything in the Better Battery Stats thread will help you.

That will at least allow you to see what's doing it.
I will thanks

Check the battery stats for "gpsd". Mine started draining after updating to 4.1.2. It appears (for me at least) that the Samsung "find-your-phone-if someone-steels-it" was behaving badly.
If this is the case for you. Switch the service/function of and notify Samsung.
How many hours do you get when your battery is draining fast?
My stock phone started to drain fast as well. Within 6 hours unplugged I see myself having only 60 percent remaining with barely an hour screen on time. I tried to narrow it down to a rogue app but it seems the OTA was more plausable and easier to blame lol
Now back to using Jedi again.

It's called DIVE and does more than just recover lost phones, it is a management suite, not that I've spent a lot of time on it so far.

Are you sure Dive and the remote control functions are supported on our phone?
My phone isn't rooted. And Im new too this so I'm a little bit lost on what to do. Before that T-Mobile update I would get 24hrs+ but I'm lucky enough too get 8hrs and that's without heavy use

That's not it ever since this multiwindow update battery life has diminished. I can't figure it out. Like right now all I did is a little bit of fb twitter Tapatalk gps music and thats it and its at 38% unplugged since 6 hrs and on screen time is 2 hrs.

I turned off the multi window under settings cause I rarely use it and ive been unplugged for 9 hrs and have 56% left I also am syncing manually. Hopefully this will help

Yea multi view does seem to contribute to see extra drain. But as I see it my phone lasts all day no matter what I do to it. I've never EVER had to say...dang where's my charger. Not with this phone. It's perfect for me . I use it HEAVILY
I trade commodities so I'm constantly on the Internet and syncing prices all day long. I don't use wifi. Ever

My battery was already bad, this app pretty much did nothing to help me out... but I left it running, mostly as a placebo effect lol
I feel as though if u can toggle on/off wifi and mobile data this app will do nothing for you.

I've been using it for a week and haven't really noticed that much of a difference over stock. Pretty much all it does is stop things from syncing all the time.
I use Juice Defender and I do notice a big difference
Don't notice a difference either. It's been almost a week.
