[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skinzy98:
So I rooted my cousins toro and put the xylon nightly on it. He said now that he's getting some pretty bad battery life. As he is not a flasher or a rooter he needs an extremely stable,fast, and battery saving ROM. As you can tell from my SIG I do not have this awesome phone so therefore my knowledge is limited. Any advice is appreciated
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sarkar1990:
I would suggest atom with ak kernel

The phone will fly!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skinzy98:
But is it good on battery life? as the phone is over a year old
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sarkar1990:
I used it on my maguro and the battery life was as good as stock.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] guitmz:
fancy kernel is the one that is providing me the best battery life. at night, when im sleeping, i can get 0% sometimes of drain with wifi, gps and sync turned off (i have quite a few apps running on background)

im on CM now but i have tried atom and it looks good! purity also :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skinzy98:
Thanks I may just try that

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kujorulez:
I've been using custom roms for some time now; generally when I install new roms, I do the following:

1. Nandroid backup

2. wipe data/factory reset

3. wipe cache

4. wipe dalvik (although i get an error that the SD ext partition not found)

5. flash rom

The installation instructions for Slim Bean suggests that I do "Full wipe, and manual format /system".

My question is twofold: (1) what is "manual format /system" and (2) is there anything in addition to the above that I should do to fully clean out the phone? I have not formatted the SD card, but I guess I can and just leave the data from there on my PC.

Any help is appreciated - thank you!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _hito_:
1) In CWM, Mount and Storage-> format System, format Cache, format data..:highfive:

2) If you want to fully clean out your phone than do all formats including wipes, format sdcard, do not mess with other things.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kujorulez:
Thank you - if I do that first step ("In CWM, Mount and Storage-> format System, format Cache, format data"), do I need to back up my SD card first?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _hito_:
No, in that case you don't need to backup your SD card.:highfive:
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vidaljs:
Just make sure u back up the SD card on computer so u have it. Plus be careful because there have been issue with phone not communicating with PC after SD card formating since ur also deleting those files too. So only do if really necessary.

But

I would NOT format the SD card unless ur having issues.

Just do factory reset, wipe cache and dalvik more than once. There is also a zip file called "format all" that will do all three at once with a simple click. You can find it on XDA

Good luck

All,

Just bought a N7102 today. As I started using the S Pen/S Note, a tutorial page pops up and tried to teach me how to use the Productivity Tool. But as I started a new note, I actually do no see the Productivity Tool.

Is there something wrong with my unit?

The ZeroLemon extended battery is coming in May for the S4! I contacted them and Joey said that the battery will be released mid-May.

Their website is http://www.zerolemon.com/.

Who's planning on getting one?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] RaptorMD:
That battery will certainly last you all day and night but man what a brick it will be in your pocket. I could see getting one of these if you are traveling a lot or will be away from a charger for an extended period. Worth checking out when it launches and I get my 32GB GS4 on AT&T.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] tft:
i rather walk with this on my head.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] fade2green514:
2600mah will be enough for me
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] ChaseBroyles:
The stock one will be plenty for me as a daily too. I used the one I have for my S III on a trip to NYC. Being in the city all day with no charger and using GPS to get around it was really useful. I had around 50% left after a whole day of use. I'll be getting one. :)
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] silkshocker:
i do hope they come out with a 10,000mAh battery.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Inline:
I used the 7000mah battery on my S3 and it was absolutely necessary for me. It really isn't as bulky as you think and actually adds a nice weight to the phone plus it looks a lot more natural then other extended battery's and is a lot more convenient then carrying a spare battery.

For the average user, yeah probably pointless, but coming from the S3 to my S4 without it, the battery feels pathetic. It's draining so ridiculously fast compared to my S3, but that's a given with all the kernel tweaking and the battery I had on my S3. I got wifi, gps, data, browsing, gaming, etc going hardcore all day!

I will continue to take the squeezing of 7000 lemons daily challenge. :thumbup::cool::cool:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sof006:
I have installed Facebook 3.1, the latest version. It makes my CPU hit 55 to 60 degrees (Celsius) which is NOT good as my cpu begins to throttle. I can verify this in franco.kernel updater and by running quadrant also the top of my phone is getting really hot.

As soon as I uninstall Facebook my temperature drops to 30 degrees and only goes up to about 45 when doing something like going on Twitter... Why is Facebook doing this when I use it the most on a daily basis..

Also I notice that my phone stays warm-ish even when I am not using the app (facebook isn't keeping the device awake however). I am so confused as to why Facebook is doing this.

P.S I have also tried a later version of facebook and it does the same thing. Please someone clarify that it isn't my phone going wacko and its the app and also its fixable? I do like to go on Facebook when i'm out the house as I keep in contact with people on it :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jsgraphicart:
I dont see how Facebook can cause this. I dont use Facebook myself. But maybe try using the web version instead until you find a solution.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sof006:
I could try but I am so used to getting push notifications to my phone i'd end up forgetting and go the entire day without checking which is bad as I have important things that I need to keep an eye on on facebook.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lbenkw03:
friendcaster for facebook seems to be a great substitution for the original facebook app

smooth...more function... multi-user...better UI...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sof006:
I tried it and didn't like it, also everytime someone tagged me in something it wouldn't show up or even notify me.

Also in reply to lesp4ul I tried what you said but my phone still gets hot. Facebook seems to be constantly requesting access to the CPU. I notice that when facebook is installed Franco Kernel updater tells me that the frequency jumps from 384MHz to 700 all the way to 12xxMHz and does this over and over again with no stops, this makes the temperature jump around all over the place and it is hogging the performance of my phone.

After uninstalling it sits at 384MHz and only moves very rarely (unless i'm touching the screen etc). Again obviously the temperature stays at around 30 degrees. My guess is that the app is just not what it used to be in terms of coding structure.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blankit:
Then delete the app..... website is better

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sof006:
Well I don't. And I don't want to have an inbox spammed full of notifications thanks.

Anyway I feel I have found a version of Facebook that is working correctly. Facebook 2.0 doesn't make my phone hot or drain lots of battery for that matter.

Hi Guys,

I just bought a T-Mobile compatible Straight Talk sim for my Atrix 4G with CM10 and I am having some problem getting data to work.

Now first off I used to have AT&T prepaid and could get data from there, but I decided to try Straight Talk since the $45 unlimited plan sounded nice. When I ordered the sim last week though, the only one they had available was the T-Mobile compatible sim. But I have a sim unlocked phone, so the customer support guy I was talking to said this would be ok.

Got the sim, installed it, phone and sms works, but no data. I've tried every APN I could find for both the AT&T and T-Mobile sims and none of them works for me.

I was wondering if you guys have some thoughts on what I might have missed, or maybe have some updated APNs that currently works today.

Thanks

[Motorola Droid Bionic] Sqwaller:
So now that Jelly Bean for Bionic is out and there is a root method that works, what should be kept and discarded as far as apps go such as, ROM Manager, superuser, superuser#, SuperSU, and VoodooOTA Root Keeper, Bootstrap, safestrap.

Obviously I do not know, and many may not also know, which of these apps is essential and which is outdated. Is there a forum that I missed, if so I apologize. I can guess that Voodoo should be kept because Motorola may, as unlikely as it may seem, might update Bionic with a fix or other small software update.

Is there anyone making ROMS that work with Jelly Bean 4.1.2, ? I have been out of the searching for some months and now not knowing where to look for the best answer to these questions.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Eric214:
Well the Liquid Smooth 2.2.1 and the CM10.1 are built on Kexec so they will work on the JB OTA kernel, I'm running both on the OTA rooted .22 build. I'm reading that some odd functionality seems to be happening but they are already being ironed out in the nightly builds. Anything not on a Kexec build i would assume will not work on your JB OTA kernel.

Just keep reading the posts and help out with the nightlies (load new ones and report any bugs or that its all good) b/c that helps them fix the bugs faster and faster to a new stable ROM.

As far as whats what to keep, I'm keeping Titanium Backup, OTA root keeper, Superuser (obviously) I'm on Safestrap v3.11 to flash ROMs

As for ROMs... the JB 4.2.2 ROMs.. Liquid Smooth, CM10.1 and any other JB ROMs i would think would be ported over. Just keep an eye out. People are all giddy over the Bionic again so im sure it will be strong for awhile longer.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] TechnoHippie:
Well I know what's next for my Bionic. After I've jumped up an down on it a bunch of times I plan to toss it in my driveway and drive over it...then backup and do it again a few times.

For me it's been a complete disaster and still have never got my lapdock to work right.

Middle of June my contract is up and I'm going for the Galaxy Note II. Depending upon what kind of deal I can get out of VZW I might switch carriers too.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Eric214:
June!? I might be the harbinger of bad news but the Bionic was released in September of 2011 so that means if you got the Bionic at launch, you cant upgrade till September. They used to let you update at the 20 month mark instead of going to the full 24 months. Well 2 weeks ago Verizon announced that they will no longer be letting people upgrade early. Hence you have to go the full 24 months now.

Eric
[Motorola Droid Bionic] projektorboy:
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but the fact that a ROM is based off KEXEC means that those ROM's don't care what base kernel you're running, whether you're on the ICS or JB OTA. Those ROMs bring in their own kernel that's booted with KEXEC. Safestrap handles the KEXEC process, and Safestrap works properly on the JB OTA so there's nothing to really worry about.

Also I'm not even sure how you'd ever use ROM Manager on the Bionic. Especially if you have Safestrap installed.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] jodaschmo:
Hey, I just updated and established root with ubuntu method. Now I want to install Liquid (I hate the feel of stock Bionic) but when I reboot, and hit menu for safestrap, it just boots into android...

[Motorola Droid Bionic] RockyC33:
MyVerizon still says I can upgrade at discount on 6/6/13. I probably won't right away because I want to wait for the Motorola/Google X phone.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Eric214:
Yeah i know and mine still says May 14th but good luck for me getting to update then. My guess is they haven't updated their systems yet. Likely they have instructions to disreguard that and go the full 2 year from start of contract.

If you can update early still then AWSOME! 1 other thing is maybe they are grandfathering in people who are close? like over 16 or 18 months into the contract so they are only 2-4 months from the early update. IDK I just know that 2 weeks or so ago VZ said they are done with allowing ppl to update at 20 months and that you must now go to the full 24 months or just new contracts will get the full 24 months till upgrade? :confused:
