Android services eating up my battery/ gyroscope - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

A problem gsiff daemon, which was solved by simple reboot, lead me to developer options/cpu usage, screen where I found the gyroscope doing this (attached images). is it normal. my battery is getting killed.
Edit : my wife is up now so I can checked her phone. gyro seems to me doing the same thing. she said her bat is not great either
My nexus 7 has those numbers on top but barely even change colors
Edit: the process, even though it's listed as a cpu process, doesn't show up on the battery monitor widget.

I'm having the exact same issue all of a sudden. I'm new to the phone (android phones actually), did you figure out the issue?

same problem on my sprint galaxy s 3

Same here I am on ATT. Using system panel I was able to pick it out. It appears it turned it's self on when I plugged it in and continued to run for quite some time.
Here in my input to the problem

First thing I did was stop the process. Then I used a root explorer (I use Solid Explorer, I highly recommend it) and got down into it until I found gsiff_daemon. I can't remember where, exactly it was located, and since I'm on CM10 now, the problem is taken care of anyway, but I digress. Once I found it, and had previously stopped it, I just deleted it. That was that. It never popped up again, and my battery life improved drastically.

IN RELATION TO GSIFF_DAEMON
do any of you guys have the "increase volume in pocket" setting on in phone-->settings?
also do any of you have motion settings enabled and/or autorotation on?
Seems it has to do with the gyro issue
also are you guys rooted or non-rooted?

Crapppp
Jellybean didn’t solve it. Gsiff_daemon just popped up for me. Just renamed it AGAIN.
Hopefully it won't pop up again

(Mod) Enable/Disable shutter sound option in camera (how to)

I used and found this mod in the Sprints Galaxy S3 forum. I did not see this posted here so I wanted to share this. I take no credit for this. This was done by Freeza and by s3.Zeke.
What you have to do is use an app like root explorer and change the following lines in /system/csc/feature.xml
Edit the following:
<CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>false</CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>
Change the "false" to true. Save the changes and exit.
Reboot your phone and now you can toggle if you want shutter sound in options.
Remember you have to reboot your phone or it will not show up.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda premium
An easier way, for me was:
Open Root Explorer
Navigate to System>media>audio>ui
Mount R/W
Scroll down to 'Shutter.ogg'
Rename to 'Shutter.ogg.bak'
Profit!
I've done this on both stock and Beans B14. I haven't tried it on AOSP, so the file structure may be different, but the idea is the same. (The file was called 'Camera_shutter.ogg' on the Thunderbolt.)

While this idea turns the sound off, you have to go through all the steps to change it every time. The OP's way allows you to toggle it on and off inside the camera's options. So you wouldn't need to go through all the steps every time you want to turn it on or off.

I installed the 'HE' ROM, and made the changes above.
The settings menu is not showing the sound toggle, although the device was rebooted and the 'true' value is confirmed.
Was working on G7 previously.
I'll retry.

That's crazy. So Verizon actually removed that option with the update? I can't even think of anyway that would benefit them. I can confirm the T-Mobile version still has it on the latest update. Bizarre.

Its not a matter of benefit its a matter of perverts taking pictures and video with no one knowing. Its actually illegal in some states to disable the sound due to these retards that cant get their own woman and have to take pictures and video home to their computers to wack it too.

Thanks for this, works great on MA2! Just a note, make sure you properly set permissions of the saved feature.xml file. ES typically created a backup of the original file, and doesn't properly set permissions on the new edit, and this mid won't work until you correct that.

[Q] BeanStalk Q&A

These aren't development questions, so I wanted to keep these out of the development thread. Anyhow, I just installed BeanStalk, and I just have a couple questions, and probably more later, and probably other people will, too, so here's a nice thread for everyone to ask their BeanStalk questions.
Anyhow, question 1: I installed the themed MMS and Contacts package on initial install, but I'm not really diggin' it. I'd like to just go back to stock. So, is it just as easy as flashing the beanstock.zip in CWM just as I installed the beanthemed.zip, or is there more prep involved now that something is already in place? Does anything need to be uninstalled first? Or can I just power down, re-flash the new zip, and be good to go?
Question 2: I like the lock screen widgets, however, I'm not a fan of the camera widget on the lock screen. The problem is, it seems to be quite permanent. Does anyone know how to remove the camera lock screen widget?
Thanks much.
Hi guys. Might be just my phone, but I flashed the 4/10 build and my cpu was pegged at 98-100% and never dropped. Battery stats showed media the culprit. I tried disabling it with Android tweaks, but that didn't work. OS Monitor showed "system" at upper 90's. This was draining my battery faster than I could charge it and it was hot of course. Had to revert to 4/1 build. Is anyone else seeing this? If not, maybe I'll try again. Thanks!

I agree it doesn't sound like the same problem he or some others were having,but it is known that there is a problem with that build. May be showing different due to installed apps or any number of reasons.

Constantly Reboots!
Hey Guys!
I am having a constantly reboots on my XT925 nearly every 20 hrs.
I have read that user need to have a logcat in order to have a look at the background process and it is hard to catch as logcat cleared on every reboot so i used catlog application to see my logcat
Whole Logcat : XT925.ZIP
Some Exception Logcat attached as a screenshot but i recommend you check zip file.
Please guys i want as assist from developers in order to determine the cause of this reboot, Please Please Help Me
Hey guys am not a developer and i know nothing about it as i bricked my phone using font installer and after long long search i came up with custom ROMs and all these stuff
Device : XT925
ROM : Beanstalk 8
Android : 4.3
Recovery : OUDHS
Bootloader : Unlocked
I'm having battery problems. I get it charged fully, but it doesn't last no more than 2-3 hours. Also when I restart it suddenly shows a battery life of 12 %, and even then, the 12% goes up to 16% all without a charger... Then goes back down again for which i have to recharge or the phone dies. I tweaked around with the battery settings on android tweaker pro, and it's not helping.

Configure and test the second screen - NO ROOT REQUIRED

First you'll need to install QuickShortcutMaker or other similar apps to enable making custom shortcuts. Then search "signboardtest", run it you'll see a page as shown in attached screenshot.
Here you can perform bunch of testings on the second screen, including posting various kinds of notifications (warning: do not test ProgressBar as notification type ?)
What's more important is you can modify the notification size and how long it sticks. Those are what I've found so far, hopefully we can dig something useful here and find a way to modify it the ways we want.
Great find ! Thanks for sharing!

Did you happen to install anything else? I've searched for this (as I'm having an issue with my 2nd screen at the moment) and I don't have signboardtest as an option, even searched for signboardtest with Root Explorer.
Just looked in T-Mobile version. However I do not see it listed.
Sent from my LG-H901 using Tapatalk
Confirmed I found signboardtest as well using quick shortcut maker. On a Verizon v10
You can change all of that, but it doesn't actually stick.. Tried all them last week. Change the notification to 7 secs and then exit out, then test a real notification(not from sign test app) and count the seconds it stays on second screen, it will still be 3 secs..

So you're telling me that the notification stays legible for a full 7 secs? I just did it again and still goes off after 3. It may say 7 secs, but it's not actually staying on for that long, screen on or off.
Is there a way to push Tasker variables to the second screen?
Awesome!
This is Fantastic. Worked for me! VS 990.
Don't know how many times I went to click on a Text notification and right as i clicked it the notification disappeared and I opened one of my 'Quick Apps' ... sent a text to myself to verify that the notification displayed for 6 seconds...
WINNING!
Thank you!
... Also you can find this shortcut with the 'AnyCut' app.
Tried it with the stock messaging app and it did stay on longer, but haven't found any other notifications that stay on for the full duration.

I ported it from the hong kong version. It is it's own apk with odex and libs. It doesn't come on the Tmo version. It wasn't working for me before, but after a reboot the notification time stays to whatever I set it in now. I thought I was going to have to mod the app for it to work, but it is fine now.

Did you apply a theme or something? Try going into settings and applications then default applications and make sure under "Home screen" it says TouchWiz home or whatever launcher you're using after that go to themes and make sure the theme you want is set. Have you used the debloater app?

I'm having the same issue. Never disabled anything except Verizon apps and amazing stuff. I even went so far as to uninstall all my themes and apply stock and reboot still showing elements of a couple different themes. I never reset before or after update so I'm thinking that might do it, but I've been avoiding it cuz I don't kmow how much I can backup and restore. Things such as SMS and WiFi passwords.

I never reset before or after update so I'm thinking that might do it, but I've been avoiding it cuz I don't kmow how much I can backup and restore. Things such as SMS and WiFi passwords.

If it's still not working and you're planning to do a restore you can create a backup within the phone itself by going into settings and tap backup and reset and set an account to backup to and then wait for a little bit so it can send the backup to your account after that just press and hold the volume up button and power button at the same time until the phone shuts down and it should give you the option to factory reset.
I just did it the other day and it remembered all my apps and passwords for the WiFi.

You may have to factory reset. How to go about that is above.

Any app data at all? What about SMS/MMS?

Unfortunately the SMS messages were gone but not my contacts so it wasn't to big a deal to just start new messages.. There is apps that can backup and restore those... Another thing was my pictures were gone but I had sent everything I wanted to keep to my laptop. After the restore i put them back.
Slightly unrelated but has anyone else been getting random "Sim not detected" errors?

That was happening to me all week last week forcing me to reboot the phone I even took the sim card out and made sure there was no dirt or anything on it but even that didn't help so I had Verizon put a new one in and it hasn't done it again yet.
At this point I kinda wish I could swap it out for a nexus 6 or something.

Is there some way we can "catch" this update to see what could possibly be used for helping us root?! I have it downloaded to the phone but I have a feeling it's in a hidden folder..

How's your phone been running since the update? Is the speed still good? What about the battery though? How's that doing?

Hi, does anyone know an app or hack for this?
Picture attached is of an S7.
Cheers.
Nevermind, it seems MIUI doesn't include Daydream which is required like many others do.
Maybe it can be added? I have root & Xposed but no idea yet on how to achieve it.
Let me Google that...

Tried this app which works but the capacitive keys stay lit up, even with the work around plug in installed

Thanks!! I'll try that out

Hey mate, I installed this & the plug in, gave it overdraw permissions as requested but when I go into settings the app tries to show a preview but all I get is a black screen, I've tried upping the opacity & other settings but to no avail? Does it show on yours?

Yea it worked, trying to think if there was something else i enabled...did you enable anything in accessibility options?

Have you still got it installed? If so is it listed under Accessibility/Services? Mine isn't.
Might try a re-install..

Uninstalled it, I'll try it again later and see. It definitely worked as I changed some options for the clock layout and seen they changed on screen.

Here's another one, had it saved in my play store wish list. it mentions the work around for Xiaomi devices.

Without AMOLED screen this function is without any sense...

Yep thankyou champ, works perfectly.
Obviously AMOLED is not a requirement for this to work.
Exactly what I was looking for.
Hello, sorry for delay, I have installed a app which name is Awake!! from Pablo Criado in playstore, but battery is spent right away. Luck for you!
