[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] henrykkim:
I've been playing with GT-I9505 for few days, and I feel like my Galaxy S4 has serious battery drain issue.

Its idle time is okay. I always turn on GPS to be able to use any location services like GPS tagging on photos or Google Now. I use auto brightness to reduce any battery drain.

The problem happens when I use internet. Whenever I use any internet services like Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Chrome, etc, the battery goes down about 5% while holding and using internet for 5 to 15 minutes. I just felt this is wrong.

Another weird part is Google Maps. I never used Maps app today, but it sucks about 30% of battery. I assume it's because of Google Now's location services, but I still don't understand how Google Maps and Google Now is connected when I used GPS only few times during a day.

Anyone experiencing similar drain issue? Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi y'all

I've tried unlocking my SX56/XDA from ATT and all went well using the XDAUnlocker tools and roms etc...., but.....

while 'flashing' the rom my pc crashed and rebooted. now my sx56 is stuck in the 'upgrading; will only take 5 minutes' screen. I've tried a hard reset and that don't work. I can't even get the phone connected with activesynch

Can anybody help me please??

Thx; a newbie
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Mobie:
Update

Just sat here and browsed the forum for any possible help regarding my problem; there is a solution I'm going to try out.

Flash the rom (build w/ lumpistefan rom kitchen) via bootloader with SD card; now all I need is to buy a SD/MMC cardwriter and I'm on my way.......

Will let you guys know what happens because I've found more peeps with the same prolem.

Oh a quick note: I've bootloader 5.22 and it does recognize a new rom when inserting a SD card with rom; it will ask you to format or download....... Well here goes nothing :)

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] cruisin-thru:
As long as you can get to bootloader it should be fine for sd flashing.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Mobie:
All worked fine :)

Ok all worked fine; i'll include a step by step (found here ain the forum and will give credits to it) later. i'm kinda in a hurry....... When i upgrade from pc02 to wm03 will i loose all data? if i backup and try to reload data it will not except it?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Mobie:
Please thank these people

I fixed my sx56 with help from these guys after searching and searching

please thank these guys for the solution because all credits go to them.

I tried to follow a guide by Phistachio on how to fix an unflashable or bricked galaxy note 2.

The problem is when I try to flash it says fail nand write fail.

I tried to do what the guid said but the Odin and phone will not work itself out. the phone is connect and recognized by Odin.

But sometimes it will get stuck when i hit start(stuck and not frozen) or sometimes it will get stuck at Get PIT for mapping.. and never proceed.

first time I flashed the rom (followed instructions), was getting FC's during initial setup. i'm going to try a clean install again.
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
Did you format the partitions as described in the instructions? I was having that same issue until I formatted the partitions.
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
Maybe try flashing twice just to be sure
[Galaxy S II General] 4runner10:
BTW thanks a ton for doing this man. looking forward to seeing the stock jb

---------- Post added at 01:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:52 AM ----------

yeah, i always used to flash the rom twice but didn't bother this time. might want to mod the instructions! that did the trick, i also wiped the dalvik after the rom and modem were flashed. no idea if that would make a diff tho!

seems pretty smooth during setup!
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
Wicked I'll add that right now. Thanks for the feedback ;)
[Galaxy S II General] 4runner10:
Hmm. Kept getting fc when trying to open settings. I'm back to dadoes for the time being. Thanks again for your work on this man!
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
I think it might have to do with the new partition and it's weird symlinks. I'll look into moving these files back into the /system/app folder. Hopefully that will help fix the fc's

I have the otterbox commuter, it's always on. Tonight I took it off to clean it and found this. Is anyone else getting this, I was thinking maybe a random heat spike. I honestly don't recall any blunt force throuought the day. I have NO idea how this could have happened
[One (M7) General] arzin:
Thats pretty nasty

Bottom line: do not use cases for beautiful HTC one
[One (M7) General] HRodMusic:
ouch man, that super strange.
[One (M7) General] jdh10475:
You would think a dent that severe would have some mark on the case.
[One (M7) General] Hunt3r.j2:
The metal is pretty strong. Definitely had to be some pretty significant force to cause that.
[One (M7) General] philask:
I think you had a visit from the dent fairy, she seems to be busy these days, visited a few people around here.

Ouch! Looks like lots of pressure was applied...possibly during a fit of rage....

Have you pi$$3d off anyone at work recently after showing off your phone? Or have u been regularly using your phone in bed with your partner present?

Currently interchangeably using HTC One, BBZ10 and Note 2
[One (M7) General] clninja:
Your lucky it didnt hit your camera lens like a dozen other people on here.... lol @ all this talk of damage and nobody did it themselves... heat caused all of them... heat caused the aluminum to warp.

Dude engines are made out of aluminum.. I doubt your phone got hotter than a car engine and warped.
[One (M7) General] vegetaleb:
Looks like you hit it with a hammer :eek:
[One (M7) General] InobleI:
Haven't been pissed or pissed anyone off. Just had it in my pocket all day, no marks on the case. Heat was just an idea because nothing else made sense

[One (M7) General] Riyal:
Wow I really can't believe this. Even the video where the guy shot the HTC One with a rifle split it in half but didn't even dent.

Seriously I know metals expand in heat but up to that point? Never and I am good with physics and chemistry I know that an aluminum 1 meter width at max could only expand by 2mm if heated [MENTION=228037]100[/MENTION] degrees celsius but this?

[One (M7) General] nullkill:
Get over it!!! Really yeah I'm sure this guy is a Samsung employee sent here and paid to RUIN HTC!!! HAHAHA Really how stupid do you think Samsung is??? You act as if they were some small time stupid company which they are not.

Do some research before u talk

http://m.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-22166606

Here is the quote from samsung

" Samsung, based in South Korea, said the "unfortunate incident" had gone against the company's "fundamental principles".
[One (M7) General] Turb0wned:
Someone is a little mad. Calm down buddy. Samsung did get caught doing just this already. Also, a dent like that on this phone doesn't just magically appear when you take off a case.
[One (M7) General] c900712:
Samsung fanboys are already worse than apple at this point.
[One (M7) General] nullkill:
Not mad at all. Just can't believe how paranoid people in the HTC forums are. Fact 1 this took place almost a month ago now (that's when the story broke the act was committed prior). Fact 2 this happened in Taiwan. Don't think this forum is based in Taiwan but I could be wrong. Fact 3 No company would ever in a million years get caught for that stunt twice much less start pulling it in the USA. Fact 4 All this Samsung paranoia has made people a little dense.

So yea I'm aware that over a month ago in another country that samsung did engage in some unlawful activities and was caught. One of us is engaging our brain and using logic the others are not. I will let you figure out which is which.

Really one fanboy is worse than another. I think all fanboys are equally stupid as they don't look at facts or logic.
[One (M7) General] c900712:
So people in taiwan cant access world wide websites. Nice one ur really smart
[One (M7) General] BarryH_GEG:
Thank God that happened last year. Now, everything and anything that happens to HTC or their devices can be blamed on Samsung. I think it was people HTC hired to apply as bloggers for the Samsung viral campaign that did what they did (slam HTC) solely to discredit Samsung in the media. In other words, HTC "set Samsung up" so people like you would think the way they now do.

P.S. – I don’t really believe that but it’s just as bizarre as people blaming Samsung for HTC’s problems that are occurring a year after the blogging incident happened.
[One (M7) General] nullkill:
Sorry you guys are right!

EVERY DEFECT THIS PHONE HAS AND ALL DAMAGE MUST BE DONE BY SAMSUNG EMPLOYEES AS THIS IS THE BEST PHONE EVER AND ANYONE WHO SAYS OTHERWISE IS STUPID OR A SAMSUNG EMPLOYEE!

Wow thanks for waking me up to the fanboy mentality. It's so much better here. Everyone else expect people who love this phone are wrong stupid and just plain idiots. How could I have missed this! It's so clear of course people are being paid by Samsung to put a single dent on their phone and then post in a forum about it! They are so smart and by having a single person do it on a single forum (the dents unless you have a link to another forum about the ONE denting on it's own) so then no one suspects it was Samsung. They knew if they had like 20 people or more doing it across multiple forums then we would catch on!

Do you people see how stupid you sound??????

I'm done with this thread I prefer to spend my time in the company of people with working brain cells not delusional paranoid ones!
[One (M7) General] c900712:
So do you honestly believe that the damage done to ops phone just happend and htc is to blame? I have the one and rhe back is way to solid for it for that to happen on a bump and that was with a case on.
[One (M7) General] nullkill:
Nope don't believe that either. I know a normal ONE would not dent in the back like that through a otterbox unless I hit it with a ball pin hammer really good. Even then I wouldn't guarantee a dent. This I do know as I have used a couple different ONE's.

The problem is there are many things I don't know. Like if the OPs One was defective. Could it have had some issue that helped cause this and then when he had it in the case it got bumped through his pocket? Sure it could have. While I don't believe it's very common it's still in the realm of possibility. When we have 1 million or some number of X product out there I can believe some really weird things happen. It's possible this isn't the OPs fault. I think it's more possible that it is but I can't make that determination through a forum on the internet. The one thing I find highly improbable would be the OP is a Samsung agent. I would believe he is just plain lying first or that he is really telling the truth and was unfortunate enough to get that one special unit. I really have no evidence to support either claim as he is the first person with this happening. After 6 months (yeah I know it sucks but information and facts are gather over time) we will have a much better idea. We will know if others have this problem. But in the end we really can not be sure unless we have a widespread issue which I think it's safe to say we do not.
[One (M7) General] altimax98:
Does the phone have enough space inside to accommodate that size dent without damaging the internals? Weird
[One (M7) General] sideofbacon:
you from Detroit or Chicago? looks like your phone took a bullet for you.
[One (M7) General] randombirt:
looks like you've leant up against something or bumped into somethin with it in your pocket to me.
[One (M7) General] schrickm5:
Or you bumped in to Yuri Geller.
[One (M7) General] stirkac:
Another "weird" accident huh. I wonder how camera lens and "gaps" came out undamaged. Don't buy One people, it has self destruction devices placed all over internal components and set to implode at random time. Probably HTC packaged bits of dark matter inside to piss off the owners. These accidents have nothing to do with taking care of your device. It's made this way. You have been warned!
[One (M7) General] InobleI:
I went to the gym after work, maybe a heavy barbell through the case could make that sort of dent. No I'm not a Damn Samsung employee just wanted to know if this was a problem that other people were having or some nuclear force hit it when I didn't notice
[One (M7) General] InobleI:
Will do when I get home tonight
[One (M7) General] ZircularLogic:
I have the same case and I'm amazed that could happen without doing serious damage to the Otterbox along the way. That's obviously what happened, but...wow. (And yes, I just checked...no dents under mine.)
[One (M7) General] TheLlamaGod:
Hello internet
[One (M7) General] jcracken:
I have a similar dent on my phone. It was in my pocket, I was sitting down, and it slipped out of my pocket onto hard tile. I wasn't using a case. I've never seen fanboys so circlejerk-y since I stopped using an iPhone. Every phone has flaws. Even the phone you love so much you want to make love to it. Live with it.
[One (M7) General] Gurps777:
after seeing that dent, i puked a little bit.
[One (M7) General] agustaf4:
Yep that is a Gremlin all right. He must have gotten in through the window at night, taken the case off, and banged your phone against the edge of your desk, then placed the case back on it. I caught one of those ****s the other night trying to take my case off also in the nick of time and used my vacuum to suck the water out of its fur/ Little ****s.
[One (M7) General] ChrisM0678:
More than likely the OP sat on it. I don't say that to be funny it just fits the look of the dent perfect. Under direct pressure I can see the aluminum buckleing before the screen gives way or shatters
[One (M7) General] coupetastic-droid:
The OP already mentioned that after work he headed to the gym I might have hit it with a bar bell. The scenerio fits.
[One (M7) General] xchasa:
If that was heat related you'd have a hole in your pocket. And your thigh.
[One (M7) General] backfromthestorm:
Had my phone knocked out my hand the other day, with a case on, it bounced a little bit. So I thought (after a glance) thats cool, no damage, anyway I take the case of yesterday and theres a long 3 - 4 inch dent running verticaly along the back, its only slightly visable, but it seems it doesnt take too much force to bend the metal, and being alloy, it wont spring back.

These types of damage will be rather common after a few months.

So, there you go then. And in other news...
[One (M7) General] clninja:
Warranty exchange through your carrier.... it doesnt have water damage or a broken screen.... highly highly doubt they would charge you
[One (M7) General] shawman:
I blame the case! my friend has one on his GS3 and the damn thing is so tight it takes him 5 minutes to pry it off.
[One (M7) General] z34370z:
That's probably it. Dumbbell press or incline benchpress with dumbbells will do it when you drop the weights back onto your legs before you get up to re rack the weight.
[One (M7) General] Chieh:
Take a look at "HTC One Hammer & Knife Scratch Test" on Youtube. HTC One is hard to be damaged by some small accidents.

But a barbell .. guess it's enough to cause a dent like that.
[One (M7) General] Dharkan:
Don't be a doomsayer, I don't think this will be common at all.
[One (M7) General] backfromthestorm:
It's not pessimistic, it's realistic.

And as the material can only bend one direction, statistically inevitable.
[One (M7) General] Dharkan:
I get the statistical way of looking at it but you need to hit it very hard to some surface, step on it, drop something heavy on it. These are extreme situations, I really don't believe it could happen on an everyday user.
[One (M7) General] backfromthestorm:
That's half my point, I'm just an everyday user, with a case. Mr barbell man who wrote the thread is too I should think (although as opposed to what? Every other day user?).

I don't mind, that's the price for a nice looking phone I suppose. Every material has it's merits, and it's downfalls. (literally).
[One (M7) General] BarryH_GEG:
I'm surprised that people are surprised by this. Aluminum's a soft metal. The One's also a unibody design which previous aluminum devices haven't been (they are constructed from multiple components). If you drop a One depending on how hard the impact is and the angle it hits at the unibody will bend because there's nothing for the energy of the impact to be dissipated over. And a case will protect it from scuffing and surface damage but, unless it’s heavy duty multi-layer case, won’t help with the energy of the impact.

This was from Android Central's drop test...
[One (M7) General] stevessvt:
You know, this phone could spawn a whole new industry. The Cell Phone Dent Puller.

...but I don't even use my cable remote anymore. It is so damn convenient being able to browse movies and shows on my phone and just tap on what I want to watch. HTC really nailed this function, it works flawlessly for me. The IR blaster is insanely strong, I don't even need to point the phone even remotely at my TV or cable box. It also makes playing with my phone while watching TV perfectly justifiable. Brilliant!
