Need some help with identifying what's causing this. - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

This started today and I haven't downloaded any new apps plus I'm using better battery stats but I don't seem to understand what the data means any one out there that can help me out here I'd be most appreciative I need to get the battery down to normal.

Looks like something is keeping your Wi-Fi on it at least that's what I can see. Is something syncing in the background?
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app

Try modifying the Wi-Fi sleep policy in the advanced settings in Wi-Fi, change it to shut Wi-Fi off when device goes to sleep. If that doesn't fix it try a different home launcher, I noticed touch wiz launcher is heavy on the battery

I don't think it's touchwiz. I use touchwiz and I get 30+ hours battery life with 5-7 hours screen on time all the time.
You may have like a rogue app constantly connecting to WiFi or GPS or something.

Stays Bar Swipebto bright

On the versions of android prior to ICS, I was able to swipe the status bar to dim or brighten the screen. This worked on stock rom or one made from a developer. It worked on my Captivate my Vibrant and my skyrocket. I installed Seans's SKYICS on my skyrocket and no longer have the feature. Is this something Samsung dropped in ICS or something I should ask the developer about? This was a really convenient feature for me.

In the latest ics leaks status bar slide brightness is disabled.
Didn't know this was built in thanks.

GB MIUI for SGS4G

Hey everyone, I was just wondering if this phone had a Gingerbread MIUI ROM, rather than 4.0 (like HebMIUI). I really dig the older MIUI and just wanted to know if that sort of thing was available for our model.
Thanks!

Ya its called miui revenge. Just goto the dev section and scroll down its pretty far down but its there.

Thanks! Looks s if it was abandoned back in June and had horrible battery life. I wonder if there was any more development for it afterwards...

Hopefully, we'll slay this SoD issue on CM9 Aries and all sorts of awesome ports will start coming in.

The bml version got pretty good battery life. It was the newest release if that rom that got bad battery life.

There was another miui for gb besides revenge i believe.

Thanks! Did it have any issues, though? The last time I tried flashing MIUI on this phone ( forever ago), there was a problem with silent ringer and notification tones.

The newest MTD builds of miui do not have those issues. Battery life is pretty good also.

Quick question.

What is the best app to tell what apps are using up battery?
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda appdevelopers app
I use settings> battery and it shows me what's using my juice.

Dim screen.

Buddy of mine just bought a gently used skyrocket and the screen is much dimmer than the one he got when the phone first came out.
Is this a common issue? Custom kernels address this issue? Thanks!

Not a common issue i know that on Mohans EmbryoICS rom it has a tweaked screen for battery performance but it shouldnt be super dim if it is i would return to stock using Vincoms Stickie and see if the screen changes

Bad is relative. If you break it down into good or bad then yeah quite a lot of things are bad. But if you add 'meh' as a category then most things fall into that

Late post
Sorry bout the lateness and obviousness but it is a big battery drain and data waste. Installed than deleted right away. Seems like something that would be better off on a phone for Sprint or T-Mobile
