Maybe your phone wasn't fully ready for 4.2.2. Also, the best alternative for PAC rom was, obviously, PAC kernel, if you still want to use lupus kernel and 4.2.2, try FXP's official CM 10.1

Whats the max safe temp for our OEM battery? 55c?
[myTouch 4G General] camelmaster:
I don't know why your battery would go to 55c but if you go over 30c , your battery will just drain and die really fast.
[myTouch 4G General] N_otori0us_:
Not always. Some roms have a average temperature of over 30, and it's normal. Also, your battery can heat up a lot, if you've overclocked it, or your using headphones.
[myTouch 4G General] thevindicated:
I agree. I am constantly running around 28-33 without heavy use. It was about the same on stock and with every ROM I have tried.
[myTouch 4G General] N_otori0us_:
I'm a little late Lol. But I found out the max heat our battery could take is 60c

It said it on the back :p
[myTouch 4G General] icyknight:
I would say max safe around 45°C or 113°F. Anything beyond that you are asking for it to explode. Anywhere near that temp the battery depletes faster and is less efficient. According to back of the battery it says "do not expose to temperatures above 60°C(140°F)."

No-Wipe Factory Image for Verizon Galaxy S4

(Restore from any soft-brick without wiping data)

​

Description

: This is a guide (based similar to my previous guide for the Verizon Galaxy S III) that will help you flash a 99.9% stock factory image for the Verizon Galaxy S4 overwriting every partition on the device back to stock. The ONLY major change I have made is for your convenience I have modified the factory image to

keep all your data/apps/settings and internal storage partition intact

. This method should help you restore from any soft-brick that you may encounter

without

having to wipe your data.

Minor Warning

: Please note that if you had any special mods that you had to manually flash before or move on the system partition (like Google Wallet, AOSP 4.2 apps like camera and gallery, etc...) they will be lost as you are overwriting your system partition to factory stock. Please make sure to do the needful with your mods before following this guide (for example resetting the Google Wallet app).

Step 1 -

Preparation

Step 2 -

Flashing Factory Image

Step 3 -

Restoring Root

(Optional)

Step 4 -

Restoring Custom Recovery

(VRUAMDK Build only!)

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] android-incredible:
after the step 3 do i have to do this

Step 4 - Restoring VRUAMDK Stock Kernel

Quote:

Boot phone into ODIN mode (See here for how-to)

Flash the VRUAMDK Stock Kernel using ODIN v3.07 ***in PDA section only*** (See here for guide on flashing)

Boot back to Android and verifying everything is still working and kernel has flashed successfully

After your phone boots back to Android, you should now be fully rooted and on the fully original stock firmware as the device came

May want to check with the dev who posted the AT&T firmware to make one. This is Verizon only!

Steps 3 and 4 in this thread are optional only if you're trying to restore root and custom recovery again and you had it before or just want it for the first time. If you don't know, may want to read up on it in the thread. Probably don't need it for now.

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Skillz:
I phoned O2 up the other day and asked them to enable WAP/GPRS on my phone which they did and asked them for all the settings to connect to websites and such, which they did and it all worked great apart from 2 programs what i wanted to use on my xda2 wont connect :cry:

First i tried MSN and that didnt work so i did a search on google and found out that a patch was needed from microsoft. I downloaded, installed and it still didnt work. Then i tried Pocket IRC (not made by microsoft so i thought it mite work) but it didnt, so i thought i would come on here and pester you lot :D and see if you knew if this was a common problem or if its something that i'v done...

thanks in advance,

Skillz
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Ryanmt:
thats because the above programs use ports, you only get port 80 off o2.. for the internet. Theres no way to make it work
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Skillz:
well whats the point in having the program there if we can use it :(

isnt there a hack of some sort that will allow me to use more ports than 80? :roll:
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Guest:
You can use MSN, PIRC etc with the XDA II, but it wont work over the WAP network. You have to use the MobileWeb APN, which should already be configured by the O2 Active system as the Internet Connection (as opposed to WAP, which is designated the "work" connection), but you need to make sure that the APN is enabled on your SIM card- another call to customer services!

You could also try Agile Messenger or even ChatToGo which supports all the messaging systems, but has a small subscription charge.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shilent:
Anyone having this problem? http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=52034

What happens is, the phone will not go into deep sleep after taking it off a wireless charger. This does not happen all the time, for me, I'd say about 25% of the time. A reboot always fixes this.

I been struggling with this for the last two months. I've searched and tried all the suggestions. Wiping and not installing any apps (except for CPU Spy and BetterBatteryStats) did not work.

Right now, I'm not going to use my wireless chargers for a week, and see what happens. So far for the past two days without wireless charging, my phone has been going into deep sleep like normal.

Any thoughts or workarounds? I have a wireless charger at home and work, and plan on having one in my car.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scream4cheese:

I use ambrane PowerBank... 8000mAh...

Works flawlessly and has a conversion rate of 90%... Can charge my HOX fully up tp 3-4 times... :)
[HTC One X] muid02:
okay. but what is conversion rate? i am planning to buy from ww.ebay.co.uk any recommendations?

so the thing is.. more the mAh the faster the one x will charge. right?
[HTC One X] vin4yak:
Suppose you have a 1800 mah powerbank and charge your phone which has 0mah with it... Your phone won't get charged to 1800mah because the whole 1800mah from the powerbank doesn't get transferred to your HOX... that's called conversion rate...

Nope, more mah = the number of times you will be able to charge your HOX will be more... For faster charge via USB power banks, enable fastcharge in kernel settings and then charge via powerbanks.. it will charge at 1a...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Benyben6:
Hello there,

I'm on a Telus Samsung Galaxy S3 (at&t) SGH-I747). My problem is that Every time I try a rom, I've noticed that the videos I've taken no longer have a thumbnail (pictures work). New videos taken with that rom will be shown fine.

I've been googling around, and found suggestions to delete cache in the Gallery and media storage apps, followed by a reboot. I've even renamed one of the files, followed by the cache clear and reboot, to no avail. Whenever I do this, I can see the galery is actually being rebuilt because at first no medias are shown, then they appear and I can see thumbnails refreshing for the pictures.. Just not the videos....

Is it possible that the videos taken by the Samsung stock Android rom are different in some way? I would REALLY like to be able to see those thumbnails. Any answer would be appreciated.

I'm currently running CarbonRom 1.6 with JB.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Benyben6:
I forgot to mention something... When I take a video using the camera app from the Carbonrom, then rebuild the galery thumbnails through a cache flush of gallery and media storage, those new vids DO get a thumbnail...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] oldblue910:
Hi everyone,

I maintain a firmware archive for all Nexus and "Google Experience" devices from the OG Droid up through present day. Now that I'm a GS4 owner, I've decided to start archiving Galaxy S4 firmware for US variants on my site as well. As I'm not as familiar with Samsung naming conventions and terminology as I am with Google ROMs, I was hoping some of you Samsung software junkies out there could take a look at my pages to make sure I'm using all my terminology correctly.

Here is a sample Nexus firmware page: http://www.randomphantasmagoria.com/firmware/nexus-7.

Here is my new Galaxy S4 page: http://www.randomphantasmagoria.com/firmware/galaxy-s4.

Make sure to click through to the detail pages.

My rule for the firmware archives are that I do not deal with unofficial stuff whatsoever. I don't do leaked ROMs or anything of the like. I only archive whatever was officially released to the general public, both shipping on new devices and OTA updates. The idea is to be able to follow the strict official release chain from launch to end-of-life. Also, all firmware is indexed on the site by the official firmware name in build.prop.

As you can see, right now I only have a page up for the AT&T I337 variant (the one I own). Right now, I'm displaying the Android version, build, PDA, CSC, links to the ODIN packages and links to the OTA updates if available. Are there any other pieces of info you think I should show on those detail pages? Also, I'm showing the OTA updates as "<new> from <old>" which is how Google names its OTA files. I know that Samsung sometimes does "<old> to <new>" (especially in the yakju(xx) OTA files for the Galaxy Nexus). Which one do you guys think I should go with?

Any feedback you guys could provide would be greatly appreciated. Once I've settled on a final layout, I'll create pages for Sprint, Verizon, T-Mobile, and US Cellular. I'll also add pages for Cricket and C Spire when those devices actually launch. Why am I only doing US devices? Because there are a lot of international device variants and each one of them can have a ton of different firmware variants depending on the country in which it was purchased. It's way too much for one man to manage. Managing 7 US variants will be enough work as it is. haha

So anyway, click around and please provide feedback.

Thank you!

[Nexus 4 General] kwerdenker:
Through the day, you often have different usage patterns that have different demands on your phone. Sometimes you want the most battery saving, others you just want raw power. Custom kernel allow you to configure things like the used frequencies to adapt to these changing demands. But doing this on the fly, switching between different configurations can be quite a hassle. Having a widget toggle right on your homescreen to do this would make it that much easier right? With Tasker and a bit of elbow grease you can have just that, as you’ll learn in this tutorial.

Since this is my first tutorial and english isn’t my native tongue, I would appreciate any help in improving it. So if you find errors or you think something could be worded differently to make it more understandable, please post your comments! This is done for you guys so you should be able to work with it :)

This tutorial is split into four steps:

Setup Variables

Setup Settings Tasks

Setup Mode Tasks

Setup Widget

Reference

Note: While this process works for any custom kernel that exposes the correct stubs, this tutorial is based around faux’s because that’s the one I’m currently using. If you want to make it work with your kernel, go to its thread and search/ask (in that order!) for the appropriate path. If you’ve gathered everything, please come back and post your findings so everyone can profit from them :).

Note 2: To use the widget you create here, you need to be rooted!

Note 3: This is not meant to replace any of the kernel configuration apps on the play store. Certain features like governor, snake charmer, mpdecision, etc. are not (yet) supported by the widget and should be set with one of those.

Version History:

1.0 - Initial Release [29.05.2013]
[Nexus 4 General] kwerdenker:
1. Setup Variables

First we want to create some variables in Tasker. These will later be used to hold the values we want to set.

To do this, go to the Vars tab in Tasker. Now press the '+' icon and give the variable a name. In theory you can choose anything you want but it helps if you use a naming scheme that incorporates the name of the setting this variable is intended for. This could lead to conflicts with some internal variables of Tasker though, so I just put a single character in front of the name (i.e. ‘C’). Also the complete name has to be in UPPERCASE because Tasker likes its variables that way ;). As a value, just enter a zero for now.

For this widget, we will need variables for the minimum and maximum CPU frequencies, the GPU freqency and eco mode. We will also need a variable to store the widget state itself. I named mine simply STATE. If you have created all these variables following the guidlines above, you should end up with something likes this:

Variables after setup (ignore the other variables for now)​

In the next step we will create the tasks that will enable us to use the variables to change the settings.
[Nexus 4 General] kwerdenker:
2. Setup Setting Tasks

Now that we have our variables ready, we need some tasks to actually use them. I will do this in detail for one tasks and then give you the necessary informations for the other ones. They all follow the same pattern so it should be quite easy to do the rest yourself :) .

Go into the Tasks tab and click on the ‘+’ icon in the lower right corner. When asked for the name, you can again choose anything you’d like. I again prefer to give them something meaningful, so I use a template like “Set [name of setting]”. Setting the GPU frequency for instance would be named “Set Gpufreq”. After you put in your desired name, hit the checkmark and you should be taking to the task setup screen.

Task setup screen​

Now hit the little ‘+’ again and you’ll be presented with the different categories of actions Tasker can perform. To control the kernel settings we will need to execute shell commands. To do this first select Script and then Run Shell.

Selecting a shell command action​

You should now be presented with the following view:

Shell action setup screen​

Now we need to enter the command that we want to execute. These will follow this template most of the time:

echo [Tasker variable] > /path/to/kernel/specific/setting/stub

The last part is where the specific setting is controlled in the kernel you are using. The overall process is the same for any kernel though. You just have to find the correct path and the correct input for a setting. The threads of your prefered kernel are often a good start for this.

Since we named our task “Set Gpufreq” let us do exactly that. The path to the GPU frequency control on faux’s kernel can be found here

/sys/devices/platform/kgsl-3d0.0/kgsl/kgsl-3d0/max_gpuclk

Our corresponding variable would be something like %CGPUFREQ. (Tip: if you hit the little labels icon just right of the Command or other input boxes, Tasker will give you a list of system and user defined variables. Tapping on somehting in that lists will insert it into the corresonding box. This is neat if you can’t remeber all your variables or just want to make sure you don’t spell something wrong.) Looking at the command template, this gives us the following line:

echo %CGPUFREQ > /sys/devices/platform/kgsl-3d0.0/kgsl/kgsl-3d0/max_gpuclk

This is what we need to enter in the “Command” part of the shell action setup. Next, make sure the “Use Root” checkbox is set.

Use Root checkbox​

After you entered the command and set the “Use Root” checkbox we are done and you should see something like this:

Shell action for GPU frequency done​

If so, you can go back to the Tasks tab and start adding the next one. You’ll have to repeat this process for any kernel setting you want to controll from tasker. The stubs for all settings I use can be found in the reference section.

After all the wanted tasks have been setup, it’s time to put them to good use.
