i'm rooted but using stock

try this : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fa9qggQJ990

my s3 battery seem to dry out within a day eventhough i started with 100%. i don play game at all, only use whatsapp and sometime fb/instagram. any club about this?

within a day is how many hours? if 22h, 24h, that is normal, you before this using what type of phone?

16 hrs about there. before this i was using blackberry so wasnt familiar with android phones.

I took a screenshot to confirm this works. Tested with Wanamlite version 2.2 rom, and Siyah version 1.5RC1 kernel.

16hours with 2g data or 3G data?


only works with stock dialer.

guys my phone is stock and not rooted,,play around with the camera firmware..i did update the firmware..and so now it becomes GDFF03..but then i play around with the option and pressed CAM to phone FW dump(rear)..may i know if i did something wrong or bad back there?thanks in advance

how do i see whether im using 2g or 3g. cos its not written on the top right of my screen

opps, should be E or H on top right?

it says H

2g consumes less power than 3g, but has lower performance. and the exact opposite for 3g.

go to settings > mobile network > Access Point Names

I believe you can toggle 2g/3g there

Or better yet use this

I am new to rooting. SHould I update to the latest stock firmware or should I root wanamlite 2.2?

OTA update?

i recommend you to do more reading before doing so.

root is root, vanamlite is custom rom.

both are different thing.

for all intents and purposes, stock firmware just works and is good...

HOWEVER thirdparty roms such as the very popular wanamlite, uses the stock rom and modify it as little as possible. They add features, bug fixes/tweaks, and best of all REMOVE BLOATWARE which suck up power and are crapware besides.

If that isn't enough reason to use wanamlite i don't know what else to say

If you do decide to flash, google the youtube guides which show you exactly what to do step by step. Actually on wanamlite xda forum thread there is a video showing how to install. So carefully watch those before you simply do without doing the necessary info gathering first.

PS: you need to root your phone first, before you can install thirdparty roms. so google how to unroot first.

Thanks for the info. But I guess when u root, u r actually replacing the current stock ROM with a custom ROM (Wanamlite in this case). So I can either choose to upgrade to the latest BLH1 stock firmware or flash Wanamlite? Please correct me if I'm wrong

thank you!
