Really high Android OS % - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

I am running clean rom 2.1 and have had great battery life until a couple days ago. I checked gsam and noticed I had a very high android OS%. In the clean rom thread someone had mentioned that gsiff.daemon could be a culprit. I have a long list of under the android OS and don't know if this is normal or not.
It was also mentioned that renaming the gsiff.daemon can help cure it. Would you do that under root manager? Does it matter what you rename it?
Any help would be appreciated

I am experiencing the same problem. I am stock rooted and unlocked. What is the best way to determine what the rogue application is that is causing the problem. Also, I to know the best way to fix it.

I had the same issue with gsiff.daemon running stock rooted, unlocked. There are several way to determine if gsiff is the culprit, turn on 'Show CPU usage' under Developed options, and third party apps that monitor CPU usage. I like System Tuner from the Play store. Basically, gsiff runs amok and chews up available CPU after a 'hot reboot'. A standard reboot put gsiff in its place. I used Root Explorer to change the file name to xxx.xxx.bak. No more gsiff issues and I haven't noticed any changes in the phone functionality. It's been a couple weeks since I've changed the file name. There is much more discussion on this thread.

WTF is "0" in my battery history

I've had this on other android devices before but never this bad. Under network usage, the top item is consistently "0". Clicking on it results in FC. I just went to CM7. I dont think the issue came back until I reinstalled all of my apps. I used a network monitor when I was stock rooted and never saw anything unusual. Anyone have any ideas? I have a feeling it is killing my battery.

Bump. I have the same issue. If I click on the item labeled 0, it force closes.

Can you give me a list of all of your apps? Maybe we have a culprit in common.
Bump.......

I have the same. I believe it is all non system apps lumped together as I don't have any of them listed like I did on my n1. I think the system isn't representative of individual app use for data or battery. The battery history normally lists apps associated with a specific uid if you press each. My theory is something in the framework isn't registering apps independently but grouping them together creating false readouts.
[EDIT] I do see individual apps on network use so I want to strike my theory. Now I'm just back to puzzled.

Sorry, been too busy to check back in on XDA for a few days. I could post a list of apps, but my original observation was during the couple of days after I did all the factory wiping / calibrating to fix my battery life. I didn't have any non-stock apps installed at the time.
The 0 is still there, and still force closes. I was hoping some more people might have insight on this, but it doesn't seem to have caught on.

Please provide more info along with screenshots of your battery stats from the Settings menu. For example, (a)how many hours does your battery last, (b)how many hours of screen time do you get, (c)are you in a fringe area for 4G...etc. You could also install the app "Better Battery Stats" from the Play store to identify which app/service has gone rogue.
Better Battery Stats
Edit: I didn't see your screenshot when I first checked this post.
Addl info
Last 4 or 5 hours light use less then half from when i bought it
same media/sd card battery drain
Same for me. It is happening on both Synergy and Beans ROM. I had been running d2hacker's CM10 but I needed something more stable as my daily driver. I used both if these ROMs when I first got my phone and didn't have this problem. I'll try taking my phone back down to stock via Odin and see if that does anything. If there is a solution out there I would really appreciate any assistance.

Multiple App Install in Google Play Store...

I just stumbled upon a nifty little feature that I don't remember seeing mentioned anywhere before. At first, I thought it was an Android "L" developer preview feature, but low & behold, I just tried it on my HTC One & sure enough it is live there as well.
At any rate, I am curious when Google implemented this feature? I don't know if it was in one of the many GMS/Play Store updates, or if it has been there all this time & I just missed it somehow.
Give it a try, if you haven't. Just go into apps, select the "all apps" tab & long press any app that is not installed already. It will put the device into multiple selection mode, where you can select & install multiple applications much easier than selecting individual apps & pressing install for each one. Sure, it's not as easy as using TB or another backup utility, but for those of us that are bumping between KK & Android "L", where most system & data restore apps don't work yet due to context changes, it definitely saves a little time.
I am interested to know if you can do this on any JB or ICS device too. Try it out & let me know.

I think it was implemented some updates ago, not many but. 2-3 back I think.
It doesn't matters what OS version you have, Play Store and Services go on their own way so I think anyone can get it.
Greetings!
I've discovred this when i changed my nexus mid-may.

Maybe get rid of Chrome unless you particularly like it. I found that Chrome was a memory killer on my 2nd Gen when I tried it. I don't really like it anyway so it's usually the first thing I dump after I get a phone.

Will it be enough just disabling it? Im not rooted yet.
Yes that should work, make sure you force stop it also.

What is Network operator Theme pack?

As the title says, what is Network operator Theme pack? Ive already googled it and there is nothing close to it.
I was looking through my phones app list with system apps showing and I saw an app with that name, Network operator Theme pack and I dont recall seeing it before. It goes without saying, but I didnt install that app. The package name is "com.android.networksettings.overlay.ct".
There is also an app called Permission controller Them pack and its package name is "com.google.android.overlay.modules.permissioncontroller".
While they may mean nothing at all and be completely harmless, the "overlay" part raised a little red flag for me. Ive also been having severe battery drainage issues, but I dont know if that is related or not. Severe as in losing 1% of the charge every 3-8 minutes when using the phone and about 4%-5% every 45-60 minutes when the screen is off.
I looked at the list of processes running in 3C All in One Toolbox (paid version) and the only thing that was a problem was the mediaextractor kernel process which I killed each time it was a problem as it was eating up in excess of %150+ of the phones cpu. I was also rooted up until a few weeks ago when I updated magisk (through magisk manager) & edxposed, then after the phone restarted I was no longer rooted and unable to re-root without wiping all my data (which, needless to say I did not do as I am not in the mood to start over from scratch right now.
So yeah, if anyone could tell me what the strange app package is and maybe help me figure out my battery drainage problem, Id greatly appreciate it.
My phone is a OnePlus 7 Pro running android 10.
Stay healthy everyone!
P.s. I attached a screenshot of the app info window from both of the strange apps mentioned above.
