[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] andross77:
This is funny that you would post this because I just had the opposite experience. I am on an unlimited Verizon data plan + pay for the unlimited mobile hotspot so it's our primary internet and we use it all the time. 2 days ago when we got home from work we had about 2 hours to kill before going to a pot luck so i wanted to surf the interwebz (specifically to watch the Youtube video about the Other Guys movie where Will Ferrell talks about Tuna's attacking a lion....). It worked slowly at first and then totally died.

So i called up 611 and wanted to report bad towers because we've been having a lot of storms lately and the lady said there were none and that i should go into the settings you just showed and see if it was on global. It was and she had me change it to the LTE option and BAM! it was fixed. Instantly.

I had already tried power cycling my phone and it did nothing so i think this fixed it. I know she was reading off a script on her screen but she said when the phone is on global mode it tries to reach too far to reach GSM towers as well as LTE and can mess up the data connection.

I have no idea if it's true but it makes sense to leave it on the LTE option since i am not currently traveling.

Just wanted to add my 2cp...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] CCoR87:
I would leave it the way it is. As soon as VZW updates their 4G to use the AWS spectrum we should all see better signal strength and what not.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hotleadsingerguy:
The reason for this is because you were probably connected to a tower that was not part of Verizon's own network. Turning off Global means your phone only accepts connections to Verizon's towers, which probably connected you with a faster tower.

Ya...except that won't even *begin* to happen until around the end of the year (October, if I'm not mistaken?), and only in select markets. It won't be in even a majority of LTE markets for another few years. AWS isn't even in its infancy yet.

Gabriel, what is that icon on the left of the wifi icon?

Thank you!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] niv3d:
That is the GPS icon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Kakamarsson:
But my GPS is off and the icon is still there...

How can i turn that icon off?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mexiken:
Boy, so much wrong information in this thread that my head is starting to hurt.

Let me clarify this for everyone, before everyone starts going, "zOMG Global Mode is the best!!11"

The "Global Mode" has been around for Samsung since the S1. Simply put, it's a way to turn off the INTERNATIONAL radios when you're not traveling. The phone turns off the global ready band radios and only uses LTE/CDMA when you're on your home network when you select the non-global mode. That is it. Nothing more, nothing less. It's not a magical tool to get better signal. It does NOTHING for your signal here in the US, much the same way clearing battery stats does NOTHING for your battery life.

I always keep it off because the firmware eventually scans the global (GSM) bands and well, however small or minute that might be, it eats battery.

Unless you're in South America, or Europe, you don't need the global mode on.

If you ever see the phone asking you about Global mode, is because your phone was out of service for a set amount of time. After that timer has elapsed, the settings apk will ask you if you want to turn the Global feature on (it's trying to be smart and thinking you're out of the country since you have no domestic CDMA/LTE signal) It happens to me all the time in my car port.

Hope this helps.

Its the e911 icon and it cant be turned off. you can however flash a mod if you are rooted with a recovery.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] 318sugarhill:
not sure why you pay to enable the mobile hotspot. If you are still on unlimited then get foxfi. It works on the S4 with no root required. It can be a hotspot for you without paying verizon anything additional.

wouldn't that drain the battery faster?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HazyJMac:
How goes it international gang. Hoping one of you guys may be able to help me out. Forgive me if this has been covered, but have searched more than a bit for some info regarding this subject.

Im a US variant user myself, but have a good buddy on the I9300. Here's my question. He does quite a bit of travelling and is often in need of wifi calling capabilities. Groove IP works great..... as long as he's running a touch wiz rom. Every AOSP based rom we've looked into, and that number easily falls in the double digits, spanning all variants of JB, comes with an unbearable echo for the called party. The echo is generally louder than his voice is and for general conversation is unusable. Just wondered if anyone has had success with groove or some other google voice based app and AOSP.

Thanks in advance and any info would be much appreciated!

Oh, it does seem to work with a headset, but apparently just ain't his cup o tea. No problems at all on the US variants...

hi guys

i have the htc one for aweek ,i have battery drop when i dont tuch the phone

i can lose for 5 % for hour what can i do

i download wakelock, betterbatterystats

tell me how to use and what photo to upload

ty so much
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArmedandDangerous:
Charge your phone to 100%, then wait for the issue to happen. When it does, open Better Battery Stats and take a screenshot of Kernel Wakelocks and Partial Wakelocks.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roy1210:
here more some photo like you want i think the problem in the audioout_4

tnx for all the help bro
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArmedandDangerous:
Audio_out4 is the speakers. It seems you're getting lots of notifications? To test it, try setting it on silent or vibrate only. This wakelock should disappear. I've had this on my HoX before, but it didn't eat as much battery as yours is doing though. Let me know if it still drains in silent/vibrate.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roy1210:
after viewing the photo you sure thats what drop my battery?

and iwill try the silent mode but if it his what can i do to fix it with ring

tnx

more help guys
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roy1210:
like you can see the silent mode didnt help me

i did Factory reset and now its look better with the progrmas 99% of the time the phone get sleep

but i steel loose like 2-3 % for hour

does the use with those program drain the battery more?

i will upload you more photos in afew hours to see the new stats

tnx

i upload the photos
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArmedandDangerous:
I don't seem to see anything that's wrong with your wakelocks ): I'm a bit interested in the No Data Connection, and No or Unknown Signal. Did your phone spend a lot of time in low reception areas?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roy1210:
no i alwys have full singal

the wakelock look fine now but did you see the battery its stell not well
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unremarked:
If you're trying to achieve ZERO PERCENT battery loss when the phone is idle, you're going to be sorely disappointed. As you've noted, even when you're not actively using the phone, the battery is still discharging. He'll, even if you were to POWER OFF the phone completely, the battery would still discharge. It's physics and unfortunately I'm not educated enough to explain exactly why. 2-3% battery loss per hour is really good and probably the best your going to get.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roy1210:
tnx for your answer

but my frind have the same phone and in idle of 8 hours he lost 2-3 %

why my phone use more?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unremarked:
I saw that answer coming and, no offense, I think your friend is full of it. Short of leaving the phone powered down or in airplane mode, I can't imagine how he's pulling that off. Never in my phone loving history dating back to the good old G1 have I achieved that. I've seen it done on my iPhone before, but not Android. If he's really pulling that off, get him on here ASAP and have him share his secrets! :)D

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArmedandDangerous:
Only way to achieve that is probably on the HoX with undervolting. That companion core really sucks very little power.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roy1210:
what you mean by that i lost you bro
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unremarked:
The HTC One X is a Tegra3 phone. It's a quad core processor with what's called a fifth "companion core." it's an ultra low power, slower processor used when the device is idle or not doing something super taxing. Our phone is a Snapdragon 600 and doesn't have that feature.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roy1210:
ty for the answer i undrstand it , but stell how much your s4 take battery in idle?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unremarked:
Not sure, I recently switched to this device from my HTC One. I'm also running a custom ROM with a custom Kernel with custom settings for screen off/undervolting. I'll charge it up and let it sit idle tonight and see what happens. Let's keep in mind, though, that this is a completely different device(and setup) and you shouldn't compare.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] godutch:
My hox would drain 2-3% overnight, my One does 5%/hour but even if the HOX was good my GF's One S(orignal s4 variant) has much much better battery life, I would expect the One to be even better than the One. Snapdragons are very very energy efficient socs, they don't need "hacks" like a companion core to achieve good standby times
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roy1210:
ok let me know :)

did you test like i did with betterbattery and wakelock/?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] godutch:
yes it's a kernel wakelock I haven't been able to find the cause of that wakelock. You don't have that wakelock and it's your thread but you shouldn't let people tell you to accept 2-3% drain/hour it should be less
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unremarked:
So let me get this straight... you want to compare devices not running the same software, not running with the same settings, not running the same processors... or processors made by at least the same manufacturer... and you refuse to accept that the numbers are different? I think I see where the fault is and I don't think it's with the device. Nvidia Tegra 3 =/= Snapdragon S4 Plus =/= Snapdragon 600. Sure, while we're at it why don't I compare a Honda Fit vs a Ford Escort vs a Volkswagen Golf and wonder why they have different gas mileages? Or better yet, why oranges taste different than apples or lemons?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] godutch:
Your analogy is rather poor but to compare with cars, the One has the largest tank of them all to start with and should have an engine which should be an evolution of the very efficient s4
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unremarked:
I don't want to get bogged down in analogies(although your argument is flawed on tank size =/= efficiency, perhaps the designers considered the larger tank and thus did not think efficiency should be such a concern or perhaps the tank size was increase because efficiency WAS a concern), but I thought my point was pretty clear. I added the second analogy in case it wasn't. You're simply not comparing the same things. You're operating under an assumption that the S600 should be more efficient than the S4+, which may or may not be the case. While the processor itself, in theory, may in fact be more efficient at power management in a laboratory setting, there may be a great deal of different in reality. We're not even considering the effect that other components of the phone, such as the radio chipset or graphics chip, may play on the device. Or the battery itself, since the chemistry may be different(can't confirm this), though I'll steer away from this argument since I'm not a chemist/physicist.

I will provide the OP with my Galaxy S4 numbers to compare, but again, I argue that this is not valid information to consider due to the substantial hardware and software differences between these two phones. I would argue that the only proper way to compare devices is if the OP were to get two HTC Ones, leave them in default settings and not touch the phones in any way, shape, or form(other than to charge both to 100%, of course). After 24hrs, then compare the battery loss.

EDIT: For instance, I could sit here and say that my HTC One lost 1% in 7hrs 26min 47seconds. But that would be because it hasn't been set up with any information to sync, power saver mode on, and it is not connected to any network whatsoever(including WiFi). Would you consider this to be relevant real world information upon which to base an assumption about the battery life of this device? I would hope you say no.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] syaoran68:
unremarked as a very good point. from what it looks like your running continuous data with gmail running in the background and whatsapp. granted whatsapp is quite power efficient even when its on it still periodically pushes a small bit of data to the phone to ensure theres still an active reciever, and gmail tends to get pretty wonky, i use the stock email app and it supposed to help with battery life. though at this point i'm losing around 3% an hour ish. do you have the battery saver option on? that'll help a bit since it'll throttle back the core's and lower your brightness. it'll also sleep your connections after around 15min IIRC. that should help shed a few wakelocks.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aooga:
My solution to this problem was to flash the bulletproof kernel. It gave me about a 2% drop per hour. I didn't touch it for 9 1/2 hours and it only went down to 89-90%. Sadly the kernel isn't updated for the 4.2.2 roms.a

EDIT: And i use greenify on EVERYTHING. I still get gmail notifications though. I'm not even sure what that app does :)

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArmedandDangerous:
Then it definitely seems like a software issue. I guess the only way to eliminate what is causing it is to do a full wipe (also select the Erase storage option). Back up your stuff first of course. Wipe then install apps 1 at a time. When you see it happening, remove the last app you installed. Continue until the battery drain stops happening then you'll find what was causing it :)

13minutes wakelock is still alright. From what I can see from Google, the msm_hsic_host wakelock has something to do with the 3G radio. It seems to be waking up (as usual) to check for nearby towers, but it's taking a long time to go back to sleep. Seems to also be caused by a kernel issue. Could you check what the kernel version is for your phone?

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArmedandDangerous:
It seems to be a kernel issue somehow, or maybe a faulty chip inside your phone that is causing the wakelocks. Since you've reset the phone and the issue is still present, I would say it isn't apps that is causing it.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Xperia_Fans:
CM stand for Cyanogenmod is like the Brand new google rom without any customization inside and you will get better performance and the stock feel of android inside CM and CM doesn't support Cybershot...however Enigma is a stock based ROM which customization the Stock ROM with adding some feature tweaks and etc to it.

PS : Yes CM 9 is stable enough for daily use and have a great performance :D
