best battery saving rom? - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

Hello, I'm from Viet Nam
I'm using stock rom
I just had the Galaxy s3 t mobile, but it's so out of battery quickly and very hot, I'm worried that my phone will Perishable because it is too hot.
Length of battery use it so bad, I have to charge it 4 times in one day, it was awful.
please show me the best battery saving rom . Thx.

It depends. You really need to try them out for yourself. Same for kernels, some will be excellent and others might not. Remember that all phones are different. However, you *should* get better battery out of ROMs based on official firmwares (aka Touchwiz).

As no one uses your phone like you do, only you can decide. Make a backup in recovery and flash a couple to decide.

Questions like this r more or less preference..
Unless u want atleast 20 different answers I suggest simply finding 1 that works best 4 u as quite simply every1 has different needs for the device and even though hardware wise their almost identical, no 2 ppl use the phone alike. Simply download a few and test, if u find one, just flash a kernel that works best for you, for batterylife look for the list of safe to rwmove apps and remove some.. by disabling the ones u don't need it stops em from runnin n usin ur battery. U can save alot like that
Different roms work better on different phones, even though we're all running the same model. I don't know why that is, but it is. The smoothest rom for my phone by far is Paradox Paradise II, but the battery life is just okay. The best battery life I've had by a huge margin was running Mohk's old rom with synergy kernel. I used to get almost 2 days with moderate use, at at least 1 full day with heavy use. As far as stability, they are all very stable if you install them correctly. I've had minor issues here and there, but they are usually fixed pretty quickly.
Hey all i just got my gs2 a few days ago and i just rooted it well my question would be i like music great sound ect.. what would you recommend..
I'd say, start stock. Then root and then load up kernel that you like. Mess around with overclocking and undervolting.
Once your comfortable with it then load up titanium and start removing bloat, at this point you will have a good idea of what ROM is good simply by installing the ROM and looking at the processes.

All kernels work with stock rom as long as it is 4.0.3/4.0.4
Try them out yourself and see.
Well I'm just out for opinions and which ones are best the try the best and so on.

I use Franco kernel, give it a go and see what you think.
I've got a 3800 battery and it works pretty well. Phone doesn't look as good but battery life is much better
Well I don't want to get a 3800 battery I want to stay with the stock battery. And so a Franco kernel is one choice anyone use that and get good battery or if not what do you use to get great battery.

Its not even a problem, that's why no one is replying.
These threads always appear.
Try them out for yourself its not difficult, that's what everyone else has to do.
Batteries and Kernels are like women, some men like some not others, sometimes they outright hate each other.
You also have to consider your phone. The fab process for our SOC is still pretty new, I see a lot of variances between the same device (IE MY CPU runs happily at 1800 Mhz (OC Kernel), other people cannot get past 1200 Mhz and some can get 2000 Mhz,)
What this all means is that what is going to work well on YOUR phone might not work on mine.
I do however use Franco's Kernel, best performance/battery I have found.
Personally for me, Trinity's TUV alpha1 n Ogdobber's 3.1.x kernels got me the best battery life...
Thanks for the information guys.

[Q]TouchWiz Themes, Mods, Tweaks, Add-ons, etc...

Have a dumb question in which I am sure a lot of threads have been created about it but I cant seem to find one thread that at least displays what works on our T-Mobile variant SGS3.
What I want to know is what themes work, add-ons, tweaks, etc.
Themes: There are a lot to choose from with the "OMG 19 Themes" aroma install but there are a lot more themes that are located in the other SGS3 variant forums. I've managed to get one of the International version "Glass Theme" to work with a few adjustments. Basically it would be nice to see if there was a thread on here to show what themes work and what does not.
Add-ons:Multi-Window, Ink Effect (Multiple Colors), Pop-up Broweser, Volume Rocker Skip track, Back-To-Kill, Multi-Dpi TouchWiz apps, TouchWiz launcher features, etc...
A lot of these add-ons can be found in some of the TWRoms available but wouldnt it be nice to have a thread that gives us the freedom to have these be installed on any TWRoms?
Dumb thread I am sure but I am bored at work so....
Personally I like aosp roms such as cyanogemmod 10.1 over the touchwiz stuff, i just can't stand using the default stock sg3 rom, it's just annoying in a lot of ways. if you were to switch over to aosp i would give you suggestions on tweaks etc, i get blazing fast speeds of data at 8mb/s i get like amazing battery life, my battery usually lasts 2 days no charge before reaching 14% so I don't think touchwiz has all those features but hey I could give you one kernel that i recomend for you that also works on touchwiz, It's the kt747 kernel.
Here is link for that amazing powerful and battery saving kernel. forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1871946
make sure you download either touchwiz version or aosp kernel version because flashing aosp kt747 kernel on touchwiz rom will put u in a bootloop.
good luck

If you have any other AOSP (particularly cm10.1) tweaks mods or addons you would suggest I would love to hear what you are using....

Rawdaddy,
One good app i can suggest you find on the play store is the air push detector because that app will save you from malware bastards who make bad software that pushes spam notifications to your phone that drain your battery. air Push detector is like your antivirus or firewall or the malwarebytes of the phone world. it will knwo all malicious apps after it scans them.
i also use the room toolbox lite which allows you to get tweaks mods etc and even edit buildprops but i'd be careful when editing build props or using roomtoolbox make sure you backup your current rom so if u mess up any settings then you can always go back. One of the most important things I can suggest when it comes to watching downloaded movies on your big gs3 screen phone is to use BS PLAYER, u can get it from the android app store.
I've tested every movie player out there and the only one that is perfect and can run every video well without errors is the bsplayer, if u notice mobo player u might not hear sound but see video and mxplayer vice fersa yet bsplayer can play all hd 720p movies very well. I'm an online movie downloader from scene sites.
another suggestion i recomend is to stay away from MIUI roms and also Jovy's roms such as his xperia, it usually takes Jovy about 5 release updates to get things right, i've tried his roms and data doesn't work right and after im done talking to a person the proximity sensor gets screen stuck on black.
MIUI is just complete junk, i'm a crack flasher flashaholic and I know definately that stuff need serious work for people to even consider seriously, they want to imitate the ios look but the whole things is unstable and battery life sucks.
Use Liquidsmooth Rom if you want super stabiltity.
I'm enjoying the cm10.1 and facebook is working on it just fine.
I also dont' recomend installing themes on any cm10 build, battery life will die.
For battery tips I would recomend you clear battery stats before flashing a new rom and drain your battery all the way, let it fully die then plug it in without unpluging at all until it finishes charging and you should notice great improvement.
Also don't keep battery plugged in yor charger overnight after it's fully charged because i heard that puts excess electricity in your battery and phone causing issues and your battery life won't be prolonged.
Well to be honest ive pretty much tried every rom that there is available for us to use. Ive even tried AT&T roms. From stock ics touchwiz to jb touchwiz. Ive tried most if not all aosp roms aokp roms cm roms paranoid roms pacman roms and I'm still not able to stick with one rom.
Most if not all Aosp based roms suffer from screen flickering and the wake up black screen of death. Some roms have features I like while the others have better visual settings.
I recently just went back to TW roms. Thata why I want to know what I can do to improve my experience with these roms.

Umm. There is some questionable advice in this post. Clearing battery stats? Not sure the poster understands what that does based on his other misinformation. You can leave the phone on the charger overnight without any issues. The phone recognizes the full charge and allows it to run down a bit before charging again. In the morning when you pull it off the charger it may appear to discharge fast but that is because it was not a full charge. That is not an issue. Running the battery dry is also bad info. It can damage the cells in the battery. Don't trust me. Do a little research and see if you come to a different conclusion.

Ps. Bad mouthing devs is not a good idea Osman.
Ugh I am fed up with 4.2 at the moment (Data Speeds hang sometimes). Going to try another TW Rom. AeonFluxxV5 seems legit. Any one with any themes they would like to share???

Battery Life - AOSP vs STOCK

Hi everyone,
I come from the original i9000 Galaxy S where I loved CM, but have upgraded to the S3.
Unlike the i9000, I actually do enjoy Touchwiz on the S3 so am willing to stick with it, but wouldn't mind trying CM10.1 or AOKP 4.2 just for a change. I am aware of their bugs (ie. bluetooth), but my main concern is BATTERY LIFE.
Presently, I'm on stock (rooted) and while I enjoy stock, the battery life has been crap for me since the JB upgrade. Because of this, I am looking to switch to either a custom TW rom or something AOSP.
From your experience, is battery life better or worse for you with Custom TW roms or with AOSP? If you answer Custom TW, can you please let me know which roms you prefer?
Thanks

No one can answer this because each device is different, each person uses their device differently and each device reacts differently to different settings. I'd say just try them out.

In my experience i've gotten better battery life on Touchwiz. Noticeably better using the phone in the same way.
So far my battery has been better than stock rom.
On the same setup i have better battery on aosp roms(using task aokp)

My battery is much better on AOKP than it was on TouchWhiz, however, my wife's battery is better than mine and she's on stock TW JB. Never can tell.
I currently am using WickedV6 and the battery life is fantastic. After a normal day, I normally have roughly 50-60% battery life when going to bed. Have not attempted any AOSP Rom on the S3. On my Captivate, the AOSP Roms ate the battery. Barely got through a 12 hour day without having to recharge.
I get about 5 hrs of screen time on AOKP before my phone dies.

Out of curiosity, are you guys all on wifi all day? I find my battery life to be ok when I'm on wifi, but unfortunately that is not an option for me at work so I am on HSPA+ all day.
Right now with new AOKP build, I am at 20% battery and my work day isnt even over yet....screen on time is only 40 minutes. I have Google Now and location services turned off, but can still barely make it through a work day with minimal screen time.
When I was on stock ICS, I remember going to be with 50% battery and 2 hrs screen time using HSPA+ all day.

[Q] Battery life non sammy roms

It really comes down to your apps, Id say i get better battery life on TW roms like you, but i may see 5% more life not twice. I would download an app like better battery stats, or even just check the base battery stats, see whats using all that battery.
My CM roms use a lot of energy on the "android OS" If you are seeing something else using all your energy, You may need to uninstall that app. It may be conflicting with that rom, but not with TW.
