I am also forcing it to 3g... LTE is bad here in Hongkong, I lose network even I am just walking around in office...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Vendetta-NY:
Here's my usage today. Morning drain doing video and news and Spotify during the commute, then a clean even descent as it sat on my desk. My signal handoff profile looks like this:

Wake up in 4G

Enter LTE half way through the commute

Lose LTE about 15 minutes later in the tunnel [edit: lose all service]

Regain LTE 15 minutes later when I resurface

View attachment 1205250
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dtp7:
This problem is NOT RELATED to only losing LTE. The problem in this thread is when you have a COMPLETE LOSS OF SERVICE, i.e. zero bars, cannot make calls, send texts, or connect to the internet for some period of time. After losing service completely (NOT just switching to HSPA+, that has nothing to do with the problem reported here) SEVERE heat and battery drain are experienced upon reconnecting to LTE.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Vendetta-NY:
Okay, let me clarify... When I say I lose LTE, I mean I'm losing all service for those 15 minutes. In a train, under the East River... Yeah.

When I resurface, LTE and everything else reconnects, and the drain looks like what I posted.

So, like I suggested earlier, this is not an "all phones" issue.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dtp7:
Ah OK, gotcha. In that case I may be calling HTC/at&t for a replacement... my battery in general seems to lag a bit behind what other people on here are seeing, maybe I (and the others having the problem) just have a detective device!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] EliWay:
My battery life has been amazing, best battery life I ever had with a phone. And I remember someone mentioning exchanging multiple times and having the same problem... I highly doubt it's just our phones. This has been the first sort of confirmation that this may not affect all phones... But... Not that I doubt him, but looking at his history he has more than a few posts mentioning poor battery life... I'm not exactly convinced.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] WuTofu:
Here's an example of the battery drain that happens after losing service. You can see that after losing service and regaining LTE the battery drains constantly even while asleep, a similar amount as it was when ivwas using it in the subway.

When I started using it again the battery just tanks. It drops 2-3 percent every minute. After a restart the battery is just fine. You can see the difference between the battery drain between similar screen times.

Hey Guys I am currently running JRN84D MoDaCo custom Rom on my nexus how ever today I noticed an icon in the notification bar for System Update to 4.1 it says its downloaded and verified and ready to be installed.

What should I do?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ardianow:
i think u have to go back to stock image(rom) than update if u recive, this is update so is not going to wipe ur device
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Do not accept the update when you're on a custom ROM.

It will not work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] snahrck:
I'm in the same situation,

My nexus is running JRN84D, with the CWM recovery, and rooted. The radio is I9250XXLF1. The OTA message keeps coming. I don't want to wipe to get on 4.1.1. What should I do?

1 - Flash the stock bootloader? where can i find it?

2 - Unroot? how?

3 - Flash another radio? which?

And try to apply the OTA or should I directly flash a 4.1.1 rom from CWM and just accept the wipe, in that case which rom do you recommend?

[Samsung Infuse 4G] Puppy93:
I rooted my friends Infuse, followed one of the guides that had me flash one of the suggested roms/kernels. Everything worked perfectly until the phone randomly shut off. We couldn't get the phone to turn back on unless we pulled the battery.

Any ideas on how to fix this? Cause she's getting mad at me!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] mg2195:
Go back to stock with heimdal or Odin...check out the iset page that is stickied in the dev section

My diagnoses-I think you had a kernel panic...although I'm no professional so I could be 100% wrong
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Puppy93:
I'll have to do it when she gets back from work. I thought the one I used was stock but with bloatware removed and a few other tweaks, idk I could be wrong. I do misread a lot lol...
[Samsung Infuse 4G] mg2195:
Sounds like your using a stock based Rom...its likely that it could be one of the tweaks...do you know which Rom you flashed?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] turboxer:
I know I know... There are a lot of things I am good with... android...is new for me.

I have a galaxy note and I dont know the first thing about .apk files or rooting, etc.... I dont mind the way it works now... BUT

I want S Voice. (duh)

as you can see from my sig... Its be A WHILE since I have hacked/modded phones. Then I went to the iPhone for a few models and now I am back...

I downloaded "apkinstaller" and "appinstaller" but niether will load the apk I got off of xda.

I loaded the .apk to my external sd and made enables the ability to load apps that arent from the android market.

Do I need to delete something? Or what... I really need someone to give me a "step by step, you're an idiot" way of getting this done. I really dont want to root my phone if I dont have to.

Thanks to anyone who helps!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] jbeef86:
you shouldnt need to root to install apk's as long as you have checked off ability to install apps that arent from market. I have been doing that from my dropbox since my phone was stock everything. Maybe the apk is broken. Try downloading it again. Maybe even try downloading another apk just to test if it installs properly.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] turboxer:
I will try that now.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] LordManhattan:
- Download APK

- Open a File Manager (ES File Explorer or something)

- Tap the APK

Done.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] jbeef86:
actually I dont think that S Voice is an apk. From what I read quickly is that it needs to be flashed via CWM. Which is a bit more complicated than installing an apk.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] turboxer:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] turboxer:
Yessir
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] jbeef86:
I dont really have the time to read up on all of it but from what I have you may need to be rooted and remove voice talk first. I think a few of the custom ROMS also have S Voice installed on them already. This is a trickier apk than usual. Would be great if someone with more experience on S Voice would jump in and show you the steps. Sorry I couldnt be of more help.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] turboxer:
Hopefully someone will.... I appreciate your help though.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] Amdathlonuk:
not sure if this needs to be pushed to system/app rather than installed?

if it won't install I'm sure you'll need to be rooted.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] turboxer:
say what? (told you I am a newb)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] jodeltje:
it is, in this state (unrooted), impossible to get it working.

You need to have root-acces (which you stated you don't have), because you have to replace the usual voice talk with the S-voice application.

You can of course root your phone, read up, and install the mod.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] LordManhattan:
OMG you're such a NOOB! Kidding, just kidding. Well no actually, but that's just how it is :p

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrJESUSatWork:
I got my gs3 yesterday, and it came with about 50% battery. I charged it overnight, and am using it now...do I need to run it down to 0% then charge all the way back up to 100? Some say I do, but I thought li-ion batteries didn't require that. Also, should I run a battery calibration?

Thanks.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshnichols189:
No, you do not need to do anything to the battery. Charge it and use it normally.

Also, battery callibration does nothing that your phone does not already do on its own.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Davanzze:
RE:

No you shouldnt let it go all the way down to 0%. Lithium batteries are designed to be permanently charged. if you discharge it completely you can damage your battery and/or the capacity goes down. So the best thing to do is charge it and when it is full just take it of the charger and dont leave it plugged in :good:

Hope this answers your question
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrJESUSatWork:
But if I DO flash a rom... I'm supposed to calibrate.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nodstuff:
No. Never.

Calibrating has about as much use as an ashtray on a motorbike.

[Nexus 7 General] Jayrod1980:
Most of us who pre-ordered are a little peeved to say the least with how pre-orders were handled. After reading threads about quality issues, etc., with those able to buy from B&M last week, I'd like to know what people's impressions are of the device who ordered from the Play Store.

Edited thread title for clarity...

Did Google hold back to fix last minute issues? Were these a different batch than the retailer-reserved units? We can only speculate.

Most of us will receive the device tomorrow it seems. I personally will not be able to open mine until I return home from business on Friday, but there will be thousands waiting for that UPS guy to show up!

The purpose of this thread, fellow Play Store buyers, is to post your impressions, especially on issues like the left side screen clip, ghosting, flickering, yellow spots, battery life, etc. I'll be adding mine on Friday. Hopefully the vast majority of us have defect free devices. If yours is perfect, post that as well.
[Nexus 7 General] cam1john:
What happened? I ordered mine on the 13th, which I guess wouldn't be preorder since it came out that day. lol
[Nexus 7 General] androidarmin:
I haven't even received a shipping notification yet... No way anything is happening anytime soon, it seems.

Really ticks me off, I have to admit!

Why would I ever want to buy from Google Play again, if other (brick & mortar) stores have already sold out a few days ago?

Besides, it makes me realize how much more professional Apple handles these roll-outs. And I thought only Verizon stinks (see Galaxy Nexus roll-out).

-- BIG BUMMER!!!
[Nexus 7 General] Jayrod1980:
What do you mean what happened? The thread is for impressions from those that pre-ordered or bought the device from the Play Store and HAVE the device. This is not a thread about shipping.
[Nexus 7 General] Japanezedann:
Well, I can honestly say I'm happy with my device. It seems perfect to me, no defects as far as I can see. It may have taken some time to get here, but I'm very happy with the quality.
[Nexus 7 General] Jayrod1980:
Did you order yours from the Play store? If so, please post a little more about it :)
[Nexus 7 General] jaju123:
Most defective units appear to be from GameStop. Mime from ebuyer and others from ebuyer appear to be fine.
[Nexus 7 General] cam1john:
Ya, but from your post, you DON'T HAVE the device.

Be more specific next time. Seems your whining about how your order was processed and being pessimistic about the condition you'll get the device in. Even you say you won't be able to open it for a week.
[Nexus 7 General] NeoMagus:
Got a C6 from Gamestop this Saturday with no issues at all. More happy with the quality of the N7 out of the box than my previous Asus 201 tab
[Nexus 7 General] Jayrod1980:
Way to go on reading skills there. Simply read the post and it is clear. My device will be at my house tomorrow, as it will be for thousands of others that ordered from the play store. Whether I'm there or not I open it until 3 days later is irrelevant. I would have created or posted to a thread like this regardless.

QC is a legitimate question to ask for a brand new device and there are some mysteries about this launch that make it doubly valid to find this out.
[Nexus 7 General] zinfinion:
C6?
[Nexus 7 General] marcellus7:
I think most people who pre-ordered from the Play store wont have their N7s until at earliest tomorrow. I think thats why some people earlier are confused, lol

[Nexus 7 General] zinfinion:
Gotcha. This should help to see if there's any pattern to QC problems. At this point I'm guessing it's just random though since they are probably all C6's.
[Nexus 7 General] WarbyParker:
I'm very disappointed by the Play store.

1. Stores were able to sell their stock earlier than Google.

2. The $25 credit sounded like an exclusive, which is why I pre-ordered, but looks like every N7 has the credit regardless of purchase location.

3. Shipping cost, why am I paying $19.99 if I can order the same device somewhere else with free shipping and still get the credit.

Thinking of cancelling my order tomorrow and waiting to buy in-store or from another online retailer.
[Nexus 7 General] Jayrod1980:
Cmon man... don't post this stuff here. It's not a ***** fest about the pre order. Most of us are upset... there's lots of threads about it. This is for people who have received play store orders to post their reviews or impressions, nothing more. I am curious to see if C6 is prefix for the per orders though!
[Nexus 7 General] twobikes:
Shipping box size and how well packed

No I have not received mine yet, but I am asking from those that do to included a description of packaging for all of us (from NZ and AUS) ordering from Google Play USA to determine cost of freight forwarding and/or whether to get them to re pack or not.

Air freight internationally is often charged by volumetric weight this is determined by size not actual weight. We know the Nexus 7 UPS states shipping weight is 1.6 or 1.7lbs.

Can anyone give the size of the shipping box? I estimate from youtube video to be 10 x 7 x 5 inches, can anyone confirm? If so this is a volumetric weight of 3lbs.

Also can someone comment on how well it is packed?
[Nexus 7 General] jaraul:
I pre-ordered 2 units from play store as soon as the page was live, I was able to buy a n7 from a B&M store yesterday and I have no word on the status of my deliveries yet from google. I'll post again once I receive the shipment of 2 to let you know if there are any discernable differences.
