Is there a way to downgrade google play services? Mines updated to 5.0 and I have major battery drain. I can't go to the app and uninstall the update.

[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
That's weird, when I go to manage apps and choose Google play services there is an option to uninstall the updates.
[HTC Droid DNA] d08speed3:
What version services do you have?

So I usually use the app Disable Services to stop a lot of Google Play Services from running in the background draining battery. Has worked perfectly fine. I must of got the Google Play Services new 5.0 OTA today. The whole day my battery was being chewed up. Better battery stats said "SystemUpdateServices" was the culprit. I looked in the app Disable Services and it was off. So....after doing some googling ppl were having similar problems and I found a solution from another post. By using the app "Autorun Manager" it gives you more entries to disable within Google Play Services. I did so and so far "SystemUpdateServices" has not shown up in better battery stats. So if your having this same problem here is the solution.

I just noticed the battery drain too, I woke up and my battery is at 9% when its usually at 75%. Google play services using a ton of battery.

I'm going to uninstall it via titanium and then install the apk. That solved the battery problems whenever play services caused problems. I also clear cache for play store and framework.
[HTC Droid DNA] d08speed3:
If not try the method I posted. If you roll back you might still get the newest version pushed no matter what I think.

Google play services went down from 32% battery usage to 2% after doing what I mentioned. If it didn't work I would've tried do8speed3 method.

Hey Pio, ran CM for about a week and only today i got a roaming indicator on again, so its not just your rom, but it was worse on carbon which sucks because carbon rocks

any reccomendations?

Also hope you dont mind if i just post this here real quick, wont take any more posts i promise

I NEED BETA TESTERS

APPLY VIA MY P.M.(i only need 2 or 3 people)
[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
Only suggestions I can offer are try a sense ROM and see if it occurs again, or run the RUU and see if it occurs again, I remember having random issues with the radio that only the RUU corrected. Pain in the ass to do but it usually corrects issues other ways don't.

I don't mind people asking for favors in my threads, but why are you asking for testers in my thread? More curious as I have no idea what you're asking for them for in my thread lol I imagine if it had something to do with my ROM then it makes sense, otherwise I'm not so sure :p
[HTC Droid DNA] d08speed3:
Weird how your able to uninstall updates. Mine is grayed out. My ladies phone (LG Optimus G) got the Google Play Services OTA update just today and I couldn't uninstall the update. She's on the latest CM11. Maybe its a Gapps thing. Oh well lol. Carbon is still running strong.

[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
I got the update too but it hasn't been killing my battery any on the G2, DNA I haven't looked at much today, been busy. G2 is on a Validus build currently, testing the trees for that team.

Does the DNA have Validus too? I could probably bring that in official, though it appears my loaner DNA will be going bye bye in a couple of weeks.
[HTC Droid DNA] zawata:
damn, i actually did RUU to fix that but it didnt work...maybe i just have really bad signal(i usually do)

well i posted it here because you have a well visited thread with lots of the people who have been loyal too the DNA

lol im sorry, i got really excited about what needs testing but i wont spill the beans(at least not here) because im not so sure if it works 100%

plus i dont know why i posted it because i changed my signature right after i posted it to the same thing(less intrusive)

i dont want to thread-jack so ill just drop the subject(and bring it back up in a few days(but not in this thread))

anyway thanks :good:
[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
Well since you're advertising in my thread at least you could let me in on the goods! Just PM it, got my curiosity wagging now :D

Hey Pio, I tried testing the validus in the droid DNA folder. it installed but could not boot past the HTC screen.
[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
And that why its not posted anywhere :p

I'm going to start putting test builds in their own folders so people don't keep grabbing at files thinking they're for general use.

Just a friendly warning though, don't flash random files from the internet, you never know what it might do or what bugs might be there and could cause damage in some way, like blasting partitions or stepping on ants or drop kicking baby sloths or something else nuclear.

[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
Steps on, blasts, drop kicks, and destroy things. Sounds like Godzilla. I want some!
[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
It'll be nice once I get it going, haven't had a chance to find what went wrong with the build that's up there now, it runs awesome on the G2 though, excellent battery life.
[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
Well, OT, but I spent my 4th with family and friends, I can't wait think of a better way to celebrate a holiday. The Dos Equis doesn't hurt, either.

[HTC Droid DNA] seeingwhite:
This a great Rom. Very fast and slick. I have encountered one major problem, though. Every time I start the camera app it force-closes within 3 seconds and basically freezes the phone. I have to hold down to power button to force a hard reset. Anyone else experience this?
[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
Don't get that here, just ran it fine in the stock camera app, does it happen with other camera apps?

Tapatalked from my DNA
[HTC Droid DNA] thenaut:
If you use PA gapps it replaces stock camera with the Google camera. Which one are you using? I haven't experienced the issue .
[HTC Droid DNA] seeingwhite:
Yeah, other camera apps work. It only does it with the Google camera.

Yeah, I used the PA gapps package. What is the stock camera? I thought the google camera was stock?
[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
Its stock on Nexus devices now, but our stock is still the old aosp camera, before they made the new google camera.

PA full replaces it I think, the modular ones don't replace it or the messages app iirc.

HEY Pio carbon is great so far, any updates in the future. I have no request just asking. Thanks

Oh yeah, some are trolling around here I'm sure.

You can yank it from the ROM zip, if not I'll see about putting it up there.

Well if you weren't going to do a 2J swap then I suppose that's acceptable :D

Question that's OT for you, what's the speed3 push boost wise stock? I saw its a 2.3 banging out like 260 that's gotta be like 25-30 psi right?
[HTC Droid DNA] d08speed3:
16.5psi stock and yea around 250-60 depending on the dyno. Past 23psi the stock turbo just blows hot air. I'm fully bolted and tuned on e85 making 360/420 on 22.5psi. Fun lil car for a 2.3 banger lol

HTC DNA

LG Optimus G
[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
Does that on a 4 banger and 16.5 stock? Damn I really wish it had been an option, went with a 6MT skyactiv hatch for the fuel economy, its 40ish mpg offsets the Supra's 13 lmao. The stock turbo was the same, much past 20-22 was just hot air. The GReddy TD06-SH 20G on it now is spring for 14 psi, kept the piping smaller at 2.5" and a small tanked intercooler to keep pressure drop down, slams air in there at full speed and keeps up with T04 turbos at 20+psi with less strain on my car. Not as impressive to look at I suppose, but drives how I wanted it to :p

To bad its been in the garage for a few years, I miss her.
[HTC Droid DNA] d08speed3:
Yup 4 banger! Its a very underrated car. What Year Mazda did u get? I really dig the inside of these cars. Hey at least you have a Supra :rolleyes:

HTC DNA

LG Optimus G
[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
Its a 2013, impressive car to drive considering what its meant for, after driving my old AE86 this feels similar, I mean its not RWD, but its feel is similar, even a touch of oversteer blasting it into turns where I fully expect to understeer into a pole it steps out just enough to keep my nose where I want it. Mazda sure can make a little car fun. I do miss my FC Turbo II RX7 too, love those rotories.
[HTC Droid DNA] d08speed3:
Supra!, AE86!, FC RX7! Dude you are my fav developer haha!

HTC DNA

LG Optimus G
[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
Lol yeah those were the days. Supra was first and the one I kept though, that car helped me through a dark time in my life so she's earned a place in my garage even if I can't afford to drive her.

Side note, those who are interested and don't have me on G+, I announced a couple days ago a build for Validus. Its on my site under Validus if you're interested. If you're younger the boot animation may freak you out, so be warned if the movie "It" bothers you, don't look. I got it building for them but I don't expect to be maintaining it, I'm doing their G2 variants (6 lol) and the DNA is getting sold pretty soon. Its my last little treat for you guys, official Validus. Once release is finished rolling out there will be a thread for it. If you like Carbon, its worth your time to try out, trust me.
[HTC Droid DNA] d08speed3:
The ROM feels and looks identical to Carbon Besides the branding. Anything different under the hood? This ROM uses Archie's Optimizations as well?

HTC DNA

LG Optimus G
[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
No it doesn't, its just naturally as fast as Carbon with all that work done and without the bugs caused by it, not sure what they're doing to grease it up under there but its working. Only been away of the ROM for a couple of weeks and been helping them out with the G2 for a few days so I'm still getting acquainted.
[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
I can't wait to try it out, but the Validus folder is empty.
[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
The actual Validus folder has a dlx folder in it, its not in the DNA folder. I decided to do it that way since I'm supporting so many builds of Validus by itself that it made sense (to me, which may make zero sense to most) to give it a folder with devices inside instead of a billion devices with a Validus folder in each.
[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
Wow, what a speedy ROM. Dare I say it feels snappier than Carbon even though I didn't flash a custom kernel. I would like to see where you go with this.

---------- Post added at 07:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:31 PM ----------

I just checked your G+ and there's some stupid **** going on there. Im glad those videos were taken down because my blood would've boiled. You shouldn't even waste your time responding.
[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
Aw he took them down? It was great stuff in there, he called me a beta, hippy, inserted a male genital into my last name which you may have seen in the thread, he ran out of stuff after a minute then just kind of repeats it, throws my son into it since a 4 year old is a fair target I guess, yells, screams, stutters, may have cried a little, hard to tell behind his sunglasses, then just repeats the same 7 insults over and over again in the comments thread.

That's what I get for my time on XDA, I get messages like that quite often, not sure why, and other devs talk down to me and treat me like garbage, that's why I stay in my own little world now. Well not videos, that's the first I know of, but I get PMs or emails and whatever like that. I've learned to laugh it off, if I hadn't I would have stayed burned out and left long ago.

If you read through the entire thing, if you can, you'll see members from PAC, ground zero roms (validus) and infamous hopping in lol.

At a minimum its a fun read that kept me amused for a few days as there's a couple videos and their threads prior to his making mine, that's where it started for me. I said he acts like my 4 year old throwing a tantrum and he responds with that video. The great part? I know some of the devs he hangs with, and even Mods from this very forum that are friends with him and condone his behavior.

As for Validus, I'm excited to see where it goes as well, 6.0 is off to a fantastic start already! Once its finished rolling out there's going to be a thread for it.

Does Validus have those changes merged that stop Play Services from constantly running?

It might, the build I was on was a little older and I started catching an hour less screen time, the newer builds may have it.

Oops, to clarify what I said also applies to Validus ROM which I've been running today.

The Validus ROM is pretty perfect and smooth. I got rid of the creepy boot animation tho lol. Android L boot screen FTW :D

HTC DNA

LG Optimus G
[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
I agree, bit I haven't changed the boot animation yet. With a boot animation like that I expected some demented tweaks like kill mode that detects living beings around you and how best to dispatch them, or tormented mode that shows you how to slowly torture someone (use the volume controls for 5, 10, 15, etc minute death rate). Or android beam to kill someone slowly via RF waves, and the FDA has said it may kill cancer too, so you can be cured and die in a short span of time.
[HTC Droid DNA] d08speed3:
So I am a big ART user. I've been following the Nexus 5 dalvik/bionic lib thread for a while now. Someone posted the G3 Bionic libs. Since these will make a difference on ART.... I flashed them. The phone seems much smoother IMO. In benchmarking (Quadrant) I scored 400+ more. In Quadrant w/o the G3 bionic libs I scored 7408 and with I scored 7884. If your on ART and want to try them here...this was done on the Validus ROM and should work on Carbon

Next up:

I'm about to go to bed, any guesses as to dreams I'll have? I won't look until tomorrow so I don't get some inception stuff going on.
[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
Pio, I've been trying to figure out why crpalmers kernel scripts were not executing. I remember there were some similar problems noted in jammiethemorris' kernel thread and Santod mentioned some ROMs don't have init.d enabled in the ramdisk by default. I placed a test script in the init.d folder so it will create a log if it runs, and it didn't.

I noticed this on the latest Carbon and Validus. Can you check it out,:)
[HTC Droid DNA] d08speed3:
Yes its weird. I have to run:

sh /etc/init.d/99crpalmer

In order for the color mod to stick for me on every boot and any other scripts. LS it works fine.

HTC DNA

LG Optimus G
[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
Me too. The problem is that you don't get the benefits of crpalmers mdprecision and undervolting, I believe these have to run at boot.

I did some more tests and init.d is not enabled. LS does, especially since that ROM has a few init.d tweaks.
[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
Odd, the ROM part supperts it already, I'll add it to the device side too I guess.
[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
Thanks Pio. And how was last night? Were you dreaming about a dream in a dream and dreaming that you were so tired you wanted to dream but you couldn't because you didn't know you were already dreaming about a dream in a dream and were dreaming about being so tired you wanted to dream and then you fell asleep and started dreaming?
[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
Yup.
[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
I started taking Chantix to quit smoking and that stuff gives extremely vivid dreams. I can remember what I dreamt, now I'm going to focus on trying to control my dreams. I was able to do that a few years back. One thing I remember was trying to grab a balloon that got away from us and was going higher and higher. I reminded myself that I was dreaming so I flew like superman and grabbed it and brought it back to my boy.
[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
Grats on quitting, its been almost 2 years for me. Went those ecigs for a bit but that wasn't helping much, went with the gum and was nicotine and aid free after about 6 months. Its my 5th time quitting, once I made it 7 months but yeah, stressful times. Still in those times, but worrying about scrounging for money every few days wasn't exactly great for us.

Hope you kick it good :beer:
[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
Thanks Ian. Since April I was smoking two packs a day, now its less that one pack. Still a lot but also better. I don't crave it much but I have a habit of doing it. It feels like a waste when I take one puff then realize I didn't need it and then through the cig away.

And I hope you can keep it up too, you're doing better than me because you don't need a prescription med to assist you.
[HTC Droid DNA] d08speed3:
Using the app "universal init.d" and turning it on allows all scripts to work once SU Grants the app permission upon boot.

HTC DNA

LG Optimus G
[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
We need the scripts to run prior to that. I remember crplamer saying something about the kernel settings need to applied early in the boot process because there's some HTC thing that locks the kernel after that.
[HTC Droid DNA] crpalmer:
It's actually the other way around... I added a lock because most ROMs reset governor settings after the boot is complete.

It should be fine to run my scripts late.
[HTC Droid DNA] d08speed3:
