Anyone else notice a worsened battery after the update? And is there anyway to get dolby back while watching videos?

Question 1, No. Question 2, No.
Have you rooted and unlocked?

Do you have Google Now active? I bet that is where the drain is coming from. Im seeing the same thing.

No I haven't rooted yet and I don't plan on unlocking and yes I have it active I don't want to turn it off though guess I'll have to suffer the consequence

Rooting and unlocking is huge if you want battery improvements. Removing apps such as google+ will help with battery drain and the ROMs we have out now also have scripts and other battery enhancements.

My battery seems to have gone down to. I might do a factory reset to try and fix it. That helped before. Also. If you look at my attached pic, your notice "peaks" in the graph. No I am not plugging into anything and yet I gain a percent here and there during the day. Anyone get this?
Also, with that pic, I don't have the bars under it showing screen on, awake times, WiFi on, charging or signal. How can I get these back? They are very useful pieces of info.
Sorry didn't mean to take over a thread. This seemed like a logical thread to post with.

Noticed the same thing. Kind of weird. Wonder if it's adjusting to try to give a more accurate prediction of battery level?

Can I just uninstall Google+ once I'm rooted?

Once you're rooted AND unlocked. You can't uninstall system apps until unlocked or you'll get a security error.

I have seen those peaks. The other day I restarted and the percentage in my notification bar changed by 3% immediately after the reboot. That said, I easily got 12 hours over the weekend on a single charge with decent usage.

Still looking in to a workaround. No promises.

Battery life for me seems fine. Only thing for me is that after the update I've been getting bad service. Can't download anything from play store unless on WiFi. Says I have 3g but downloads are stuck at 0%

Take a look at these battery stats: all of a sudden, my battery life is crap!

So, I've been using CleanGB 1.1.2 for a few weeks, and I tried flashing a cm7 rom. Didn't like how much issues I was having, so I restored my old CleanGB rom. Ever since, my battery life is pathetic. I have an extended battery, usually charge it from 40% to 100% while I sleep. Now, its always charging because it dies so fast.
Take a look at the links, anyone have any answers? Thank you!

Try wiping battery stats....
If you don't know how the process works you can look at Qbking77's video on it- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JbYVv4nCveM
Percentages don't tell us anything. What is your display on time? What is listed in running services? How much deep sleep is your phone getting? These are all that matter, not the battery screenies.
If you have 30 minutes screen on time with high intensity and are syncing something in a poor signal area that percentage is typical. If your phone is just sitting there and it drops that much an hour later then there is an errant app not closing.
Wiping battery stats does nothing... id recommend follow kenny's advice here, we can't really help you if you don't help us help you =].

How can I prevent apps from opening in the background? Like, games for some reason are in my backgrounded apps. I never opened that game, so why is it starting?
Any advice on making sure these apps don't start unless I make it start myself?

Problem is clear, all stats are fine except android system and display,no way is display that low it should be at least 60% the higher the better as it uses the most battery out of the lost batt, android system is way to high and I don't think there is a way to check what exactly it is, I would say flash a new rom.I had abnormally high cell standby and the other cell think I forgot the name haha, flashed a new rom (reaper 2.2.2) and I've had normal stats with display using the most.

They preload part of their code so that they open quicker when you want them. You can either use Autostarts to stop them or get paid version of Titanium Backup and freeze them until you want to use them or uninstall them.

That is just a misreport. It groups everything the phone does (basically being on except deep sleep) into Android System. The important stat is Display time.

ICS Problems

This has been pretty much been the most frustrating update process of my 4 Android devices that I have owned.
Hoping some of the sharp people here can help me out.
Buttons Not Working - About every third or fourth time I wake my phone my physical buttons do not work. I have to put the phone to sleep and re-wake (sometimes multiple times) to get my phone's buttons to work.
Excessive Battery Drain - Yikes!!! I have uninstalled all my apps, and it is still occurring. Any other ideas to figure out what might be causing this?
Constant 3G data movement - When wi-fi is off, my phone is constantly pushing 3g data up and down....non-stop!
Excessive Phone Heat - My phone is running like a furnace.
Now, I think the last three are probably connected in some way.

I am glad I am not the only ones with these problems.
It has to be a ICS function that is causing the excessive battery drain.
I currently have no non stock apps installed.
I have noticed that the battery ran from 100% to 25% but battery drain had no slowed considerably....maybe faulty logic in how they are calculating percentages?
The one I would really like to solve is the buttons not working, as there will be lots of battery related threads as more and more people upgrade.

The malfunctioning buttons have been happening to some of us on every ROM, whether it's Gingerbread or ICS. It happens to mine on stock GB or stock I'VE.
Just so you know, you can tap the volume Roche to wake up the buttons. You don't have to cycle the screen. Tap the volume button, wait second or so and you will see the capacitive buttons blink once... That means they've reset. Sometimes you have to do it twice.

I tried this yesterday when I was getting terrible battery life. I went from fully charged to dead in 3 hours flat.
I ended up doing a factory reset with sfhub's one-click and am slowly testing and restoring apps to see what's acting as a vampire.

Not everyone's issue is going to be caused by the same thing. What may work for you may not always work for everyone else. It may be an app or ICS in general causing the issue.

What's your screen on time.
Looked kinda like liteflow might be causing problems?
Cell Standby i think is the one that is coded wrong and is lying, ignore that one.
If you press Android System in settings, battery it will show you the top components being used
Also in dev options look for and check Show CPU Usage. It will show whats using the cpu in the top right of your screen. Watch for what stays in the top few spots in the list.
There may have been something that didnt like the update. Try first uninstalling apps and if that helps reinstall them clean, no data restore. If you continue to have problems backup all data and factory reset. Start clean.
If all else fails use odin to flash the full LH2 fw.
LH2 should be a fairly stable build. Most have no issues and many get outstanding battery life. Im willing to bet its either an app or the way you updated or both.

That's really not THAT bad for a screen on time. I saw your screenshots in the OP, and you were down to 80% in only two hours of being on the battery, but you had the screen on for almost an hour of those two hours; 20%/hr for the first few hours is pretty normal. It's not stellar, but I wouldn't say it's an epic drain that being said, I'm sure you could squeeze some more juice out of it, and prob is just an app causing more drain than usual.
Also when doing a screenshot, it helps to hit the power button first, then the volume, so you don't get the volume pop up every time.

JB has been known to use more battery than ICS(At least with the port releases) I've seen upwards of 65%
If you're rooted use betterbatterystats and see exactly what is draining it. A known source of major drain (for me 10% an hour) was an unknown service in /system/bin called gsiff_daemon. It has something to do with gps, but that's besides the point. On every rom I flash, I go in and rename it to gsiff_daemon.bak this will make it so it won't run. I have done this the entire time I've had a gs3 and never once have run into an issue from disabling this service, but I have saved my battery by doing it

Phone charging issues

Hello, I have a weird issue going on with my s3. My phone discharges like crazy when my data is on, and by that I mean it even discharged when connected to a charger. Also the phone only charges when connected to usb, and does not charge when connected to wall charger, even tho it shows the phone is charging but the battery percentage stays static. I have tried changing batteries, chargers everything. I also changed roms, formatted the whole thing, reinstalled and still the issue remains. Is there anything I can do? Please help.

Seems like you have something running in the background when you data is enabled. Perhaps a app using GPS and data.
I'd download BBS (BetterBatteryStats) to narrow down the issue. Also, when you go under settings->battery, anything suspiciously high?
I have looked at battery usage abs android system is always usually high. Here is the screenshot.

Download BBS (you can find it on xda). Charge your battery to full and post the results once your battery is down to like 50-60%.
Android system can be a lot of things, seems you have awful signal though. That could be it, have you tried flashing another modem?
Actually I'm not on my hometown, this the signal is bad...otherwise usually u have good signal. Anyway I'll install bbs and get back with more data. Thanks for replies.

Here are the better battery stats screenshots, a process called "AudioOut_2" is keeping the phone awake. I don't know what this process is or what it does. Can anybody help me to get rid of this issue? Thank you.

Do you have touch keys (tone) on? If so, turn that off.
Anything that makes your phone make sound from the rear speaker triggers AudioOut_2.
Ok I will try disabling touch sounds...but I have always had touch sounds on abd never had any issue, I dnt know what changed suddenly.
Thank you tho.
