welcome to the family! biggrin.gif

Personally, I have used antivirus before but i find that it is useless for me as it comsumes a bit of battery.
Although i don't think it's necessary, it's no harm to get antivirus anyhow if you're very paranoid.
If you choose not to use antivirus like me, just make sure you know what you're installing on your phone and you'll be fine biggrin.gif

Hey guys, I just had a very strange problem with my S3 today.

For some reason, the battery was going down really really fast even though I wasn't even using it.
I checked the apps that were running, but there was nothing that was running.
Even in the battery stats, nothing seemed out of the ordinary.

I left for school at 6am and left my phone in my room fully charged at 100%.

Then around 2.30pm i came home and my phone was left with 28%.

I checked the battery stats at this point but nothing seemed weird.

I rebooted the phone but the battery was still draining at a rate of 1% every 4 minutes.

I'm very sure that I did not leave mobile data, bluetooth, NFC, or wifi on while i was away.

I'm also very sure that i did not leave any apps running in the background.

After getting worried, I decided to turn the phone off and reinsert the battery. This seemed to solve the problem.

This has never happened to me before.

I was just wondering if anyone had experienced this before or has any idea what went wrong rclxub.gif

good tips.

use betterbatterystats to find out whats happening. It's free to download on XDA (XDA members edition)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1179809

charge your phone to 99, then unplug it from the usb. then don't touch your phone. just leave it be for 4-8 hours.

Then come back turn on phone and immediately check the betterbatterystats and see what it shows since unplugged in terms of

- wakelocks
- partial wake locks
- cpu state (how long was the deep sleep duration ? and was there lots of cpu usage going on or not ?)

definitely some app is hogging cz it resolved after restart. means sth is hogging. just need to find out which 1
u need to ask in the specific thread in xda.. nobody can help u here cz we are not the dev nor the user.
wrong place bro..

Restart didn't solve the problem. I had to reinsert the battery to fix the problem.
I just thought posting here to see if anyone knew would be alright since most of you are experienced android users tongue.gif

Will try betterbatterystats. thanks! smile.gif

Guys.. i encountered a problem with my s3 just now. It was charging normally when all of a sudden it kept on disconnecting from the charger n reconnect back. This happened a lot! I tried turning it off n charge it but it switches on by itself immediately after i turn it off. Any ideas?

in my experience, this only happens if i'm using 3rd party cable

Whatsapp is down (finally!) because they're busy shitting themselves fixing their mess over the revelation (AFTER SOME TIME!) that people are stealing other people's chats and passwords and stuff because of the total lack of security.

we're talking about just installing an app that can monitor other people's whatsapp activities, that simple! doh.gif

I was thinking of selling off my white one and buying a red one.. but then again all of my casings probably won't match with the red phone doh.gif
