[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] C0BRA01:
Mine just suddenly started doing this. I have been using AOKP Milestone 1, and then updating to the nightlies. But the power drain is huge. Even on the charger, it was charging for 6-8 hours, and is only up to 53%?? I have CPU Spy, and Better Battery Stats, and I can't see anything causing the massive power drain. It ran fine a week ago. Maybe it started with AOKP Nightly 05-21-2013. Going to try flashing back to the one prior to that one.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vsajewel:
Is drain unique to Wi-Fi 3G Models?

I'm pretty new to android, but I started having this problem too after 4.2.2. It's randomly worse, and other than the usual workarounds you already mentioned, the one thing I noticed that's weird is looking at battery usage stats, the 2nd highest user (after screen) is sdcard app (which displays with an icon showing it's part of the android os, and usage varies between 13-14%). A Google tech tried to convince me that's the AT&T Sim card, but it's not, it started after the update to 4.2.2. Nexus 7 doesn't even have sd card capability...does anyone know what's going on? It seems to me this drain issue should be hugely affecting Nexus 7 users, and I can't find much about it. I'm not rooted and don't really want to 'cause I just wanted a simple little tablet to carry around with me, since the iPad mini isn't great yet.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Accessories] biblefreak:
I have tried several cases without much luck so far. My Moko arrived yesterday and so for I am really liking it. I have not had any interference from the wake/ sleep magnet like I did on an IVSO case with Bluetooth keyboard, and unlike the Blurex case that was too small this one fits perfect. I will link to all 3 of the cases I tried so everybody can see. The Moko case is definitely a keeper with my one concern being the magnet. Given all the concern with the magnet causing damage to the digitizer I am thinking of either extracting the magnet or ordering the STM Cape. On the other hand, even the factory case has a wake / sleep magnet and the N8 was clearly built to support that function.

1. Moko folio ( Great case, guess there is a reason why it has 4+ stars on Amazon!)

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00B4BEA82/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

2. Blurex folio ( I ordered the Blurex as that is what I have for a Nexus 7 and it has been great. Unfortunately the one I received for the N8 was too small in every dimension.)

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CFORF4S/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

3. IVSO folio (this one caused the s-pen to write appx 1/4" away from where you were actually trying to write along the middle of the left edge of the screen)

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Accessories] biblefreak:
Of all the cases I have tried I keep coming back to this one. I removed the magnet as I am not interested in finding out if it causes long teem damage. With the magnet removed I think this is the ideal case.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Accessories] cirus1138:
I can't seem to find the magnet on this case. How did you remove it?

E: found it, it's under the hand strap just a little above the center of the case.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Accessories] biblefreak:
Yup! If you run your fingernail across it a few times it will give you the outline of the round magnet. Take a razor blade and follow the outline and it comes right out!

Samsung Galaxy S4 Dev Edition hitting Verizon and AT&T

http://www.android.net/forum/androi...-galaxy-s4-dev-edition-hitting-verizon-t.html

So if you are on ATT or Verizon, and want to flash ROM's and kernels on the S4, without waiting for a hack to fix the lock bootloader, that can be easily patched away down the road, looks like we gotta pay full price for a phone, that is unlocked ? :rolleyes:

This next bit of news will come as a huge surprise to Verizon Wireless customers. Samsung has announced that it will be releasing their Galaxy S4 Developer Edition smartphone on both Verizon Wireless and AT&T. Yes you read that right. Verizon Wireless is actually going to allow a bootloader unlocked Samsung Galaxy S4 on their network. Keep in mind though that these phone will not come subsidized, so customers will be paying full retail for the handset. The handset will be available with 16GB of onboard memory and in one color (Black Mist.) There is no official word on release dates or how these handsets will be offered, but that info should be hitting the web sometime soon.

Anyone going to pull the trigger when this handset is released?

Okay, hope this will help some people who like me upgraded to the WAXX 1.72 Rom recently, and now want to upgrade to the 'official' 1.72 1.81 Rom from O2.

Initially, the downloaded package from O2 refused to upgrade stating it had errors, which I believe were "country code" errors.

However, I downloaded the modified Himalaya Upgrade file posted by The Hobbit http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=12512 and then placed the XDA II in bootloader mode by pressing the power key, navi-key and reset button.

Place the unit (which should now read Serial) into the cradle. The screen should now say USB. Make sure that the modified Himalaya Upgrade file is in the same directory as the official 1.72 1.81 files, and double click it.

The upgrade process should now be OK !

(Well it is for mine, as I'm in the midst of upgrading whilst I write this) :D

Have fun !

Thank You!!

I tried another method posted in the forum that "worked" (I know, its at my own risk yadda yadda yadda) and got a hosed XDA.

I was stuck on the bootloader for an hour while I tried to get the update to run without country code errors.

I was in the midst of trynig to edit the .nbf files to match the country codes installed on it when I found this post, followed it and wahoo! its updating now.

I used the official o2 files I downloaded myself so I know this should be a clean rom.

The reason I did this was that with the previous one It kept freezing when I delete files. no idea why. I had to reset it, then when i deleted a file again, wham it froze. I did a hard reset, and it didnt seem to lock up after that, so I carried on for a month or so then it started again. This didnt link in with any new software i can remember installing.

Im hoping that problem goes away with the new o2 rom. Fingers crossed :p

Hey there,

I just flashed a new sentinel ROM version 4.6 and the ROM itself is brilliant, except for some reason the email doesn't work as when i click on it it says "microsoft exchange has stopped working." Also once i install the google apps package there are some apps such as maps that aren't installed.

Is there anyway to resolve these issues like an alternative google apps package maybe? I downloaded the latest package so it should be up to date.

Thanks
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scarface1991:
I can't really comment on the Microsoft exchange issue since I never used it but what you can always try is to clear all Email data and cache. Go into Settings - Apps and then look for the Email App that you are using. Then delete data and cache and then try again.

You can install Maps from the Google Play Store, so it shouldn't be a big deal that it`s missing.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] blackoakx22:
Hello, as the title states I have found a way to bypass the password with the pin, pattern, and password option on the lockscreen without doing a factory data reset. I have not tried face unlock, I will try it soon. I would first like to thank Kosborn for his p2p-adb which bothe helped and gave me the idea. His p2p-adb can be located here.​

I will also be adding this feature to Kosborn's p2p-adb soon as well.

Now to get down to it.

What you will need:

Phone with eithier 'USB Debugging" enabled or a Custom Recovery

ADB

A file editor (I use Notepad++)

Basic adb skills

*If you already have "USB Debugging enabled please skip to Step 5*​

Step 1)

If the phone does not have USB Debugging enabled you need to flash a custom recovery to the phone. I will not post a step to step guide to on how to flash a custom recovery, just google it.

Step 2)

When you have the custom recovery flashed to the phone boot into recovery mode and mount /system. In CWM it can be found under "Mounts and Storage"

Step 3)

When /system is mounted pull build.prop and open it with the file editor I mentioned above.

adb pull /system/build.prop

You will have to add one line into the build.prop file for adb to be enabled when you reboot the phone

Add the line below to the build.prop file.

persist.service.adb.enable=1

Save build.prop file.

Now we have to push the file back to the phone so

adb push build.prop /system/build.prop
adb shell chmod 0644 /system/build.prop

Step 4)

Reboot phone

Run command below and you should see you device attached, If not make sure you have the correct drivers installed.

adb devices

Step 5)

Using adb type the following commands

adb shell mv /data/system/gesture.key /data/system/gesture.key.bak
adb shell mv /data/system/password.key /data/system/password.key.bak

Step 6)

Reboot phone

You should now be able to unlock your phone without having any password. And more importantly with having all of your data on the phone still.

If you found this helpful please hit the thanks button.

That will work as well the reason why I used adb shell mv /data/system/gesture.key is to keep the file there when i was testing just incase but it could be removed as well.
