[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hamiksu:
I got betterbatterystats on... but for the life of me, I can't tell what it trying to say.. LOL

I will try and get CPU spy, hopefully it is free..

I think I'm going to need help with this battery drain as well...

so if anyone knows how to troubleshoot for the cause of the drain, just let me know

and I will try and provide whatever data you need to check up on..

Peace..
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joetang97:
Better Battery Stats.

1. Leave the tablet alone for a few hours (like when you're asleep in bed :D).

2. Run Better Battery Stats, and click on Other -> Partial Wakelocks and you should see a lost of apps and functions which are keeping your Nexus from sleeping properly.

The above and CPU Spy should tell you if you have any rogue apps or services keeping your Nexus 7 from sleeping.

Go to the Better Battery Stats thread for more info and maybe post a dump to get further help.

Another useful app is Greenify, though you need root to runit properly. Install the app, use Nexus 7 as normal for around a day or so. Run the app and press the + icon at the top of the screen. It should show you a list of apps that might prevent your Nexus 7 from going to sleep mode. Press whatever apps you want to "hibernate", then click on the tick icon.

Again, good luck in trying to solve your drain problem!!:highfive:
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hamiksu:
Alrite, will give it a try
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hamiksu:
well, not good..

cant figure out why the batt drains so badly in idle mode..

I am thinking of flashing it back to original and unroot and lock it back up

so I can maybe turn it in for warranty with the complain that the battery dont last for crap?

you think the battery draining like that can be used as the reason for wanting to have it sent for warranty?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joetang97:
Is the N7 going into deep sleep mode? If it isn't then there might be an app that's keeping it from deep sleep.

You could always try a different kernel and see it if helps. Franco just released one for 4.3 (r70), I just flashed it and it seems to be better than the stock one. Give it a go and see.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hamiksu:
I have no idea how you are suppose to see your device is in deep sleep..

:(

got a link to that franco ROM you mention?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joetang97:
If you've got CPU Spy installed, run the app and you should see the clock speeds and time spent at that speed your N7 has been on.

There should be a state called "Deep Sleep". That's the preferred state your N7 should be on when not in use. If it's not in Deep Sleep, then some app or process is keeping it from Deep Sleep.

Here's the thread for all N7 3G info you'll need. Look in the Kernel section for Franco's kernal thread. I was using his r70 kernel for a few days but my N7 wouldn't go to deep sleep sometimes, so I have switched to M-Kernek by Metallice and it seems to have solved the problem.

Good luck!!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hamiksu:
okie, will take a look here and see

thanks
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hamiksu:
okie, took a look at the metallice thing..

its a kernel (not sure what that means), But I am assuming in it not android itself but something like an Add on to the android itself?

noob question coming up, how do I get this metallice thing going on my nexus? LOL...

sorry sorry.. really new to all this.. LOL

more noob questions.. err, do I have to have franco on my nexus to get this kernel going?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joetang97:
Heh, Surprised you know how to use ADB and Fastboot but not this one. It's quite simple anyways.

Download the zip file from this thread.

Connect your N7 to your PC and copy the file to your N7 root folder.

Boot into recovery, depending on which recovery program you are using they both should have an option to "install update" or just "install".

Search for the zip and confirm the install. Wipe cache/dalvik and reboot.

Once successful booted back, you should see that your Kernel Version should change to 3.1.10-MKernel-a57-.......... via About Tablet tab.

Give it a shot and see how it goes.

P.S. If you decide to give Franco's Kernel a shot, it's just a case of going to bootloader and type in "fastboot flash boot name-of-boot.img"
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hamiksu:
Ahh... sorry, was outstation and doing work so my brain kind of "deleted" what i previously did using ADB and stuff..

I call it the old man syndrome.. LOL..

I think my recovery is back to stock recovery.. lemme see whether he can do zip installations or something.. brb
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hamiksu:
Anyway, just for you to look at ..

this is the screenshot of CPU spy
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hamiksu:
ok, flash twrp recovery back in, flash the metallice kernel in..

everything looks good..

now for the batt test (shudders)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hamiksu:
No good...

Drain still there..

estimate of 6% gone in one hour in idle mode..

I think I've read somewhere someone mentioning that the franco kernel removed the batt drain problem..

hmm...

[LG Optimus G Pro] Btwice:

[LG Optimus G Pro] mbruster:
Hmm, still haven't sold my E970. Son is rocking his older Nexus with latest Android and Halo.
[LG Optimus G Pro] esimon311:
Even without custom roms I think I would keep my OG Pro for a daily driver,its just a solid phone... But the flash-a-Hollic in me is climbing the walls waiting for, CM 10.1, stock de-bloated, carbon, paranoid android, ECT..... I get all tingly just thinking about it....:rolleyes:

When the f*ck did we get ice cream??
[LG Optimus G Pro] conan1600:
Problem is not many devs have this phone at all. Unfortunately on similar less than popular phones it has taken nearly a year to have a few ROMs that are worthy of being a daily driver. Happens a lot when you deviate from mainstream. I'm only interested in mods and overclocked kernals or maybe if it were really great, stock based ROMs myself. CM 10.1 is good but with any device it takes forever to have a RC, most never do. Plus the loss of the lg ir remote app would eat at me and I love love the pop up texts.
[LG Optimus G Pro] adizzle23:

[LG Optimus G Pro] buff31:
Yea, just used Freegee and made my first backup. Weird, it took 35 minutes and showed as two separate backups... But, I have been checking XDA constantly awaiting any Rom development. Board does seem awfully quiet though... Anxiously waiting...
[LG Optimus G Pro] misterpostman:
About every fifteen minutes lol I'm hoping for at least a fancy stock Rom. I wish I had the tools to take up development.
[LG Optimus G Pro] BassfacePD:
Agreed:( The LG software isn't AWFUL, but I wanna go back to Cyanogenmod so badly! I wish I knew how to develop ROMs...
[LG Optimus G Pro] surge27:
Guys...plz be patient. CM is in the works but there are still kinks to be worked out before it'll be released. The same guys working on it are the same that dev`d for the E970. So we are in good hands. Besides....the stock Optimus UI should be plenty good to hold us down for now.
[LG Optimus G Pro] BassfacePD:
Wait so it's official that there are people working on it? That's all I care about, I was worried everyone was kinda looking at each other expecting someone else to start working on it! As long as it's in the works, I'm fine waiting as long as it takes!
[LG Optimus G Pro] Polarfuchs:
Maybe the European release end of July brings some more customers (some of it being developers?)

I'm checking for Roms, too. Once in a while.

[Windows RT General] tboy2000:
Ok I have a backup of 8.0 on a usb flash drive before I upgraded to 8.1 which I loved. I am very tech savvy and have flashed lots of roms, comfortable with Reg edits and hacks. I think I went too far now...

I remember a boot speed boost tweak I read on the internet which I thought I would try on my vivo tab. I ran msconfig and went to the boot menu. I checked No GUI boot and then went to advanced options and selected in number of processors - 4 (as it's a tegra quad core) and maximum memory as 2gig, I applied, got a warning message about bitlocker which was fine as I have recovery key and rebooted.

However.... upon starting I get Preparing Automatic Repair message, then Diagnosing PC message, then Your PC did not start correctly. So I click on Advanced options and have tried every option possibly listed. I used the Windows 8 recovery image in my usb drive to refresh, repair, reset, and nothing works. Says install media and I do and says not correct media. Unless it is expecting 8.1 backup which I don't have. I thought anyone could revert to 8.0 anyway.

So matter what I try I cannot get it to start. If only I could undo those boot changes. Maybe via command prompt?

Any help greatly appreciated.

:(
[Windows RT General] mamaich:
Yes. Boot to command prompt mode, then extract the WinRT 8.0 WIM file from USB over the drive C:\ with the "dism /apply-image /imagefile:e:\...\your_recovery.wim /index:1 /applydir:c:\"

I'd recommend to format c: before doing this. Obviously you'll lose all your data.

You may also need to edit boot options with bcdedit.
[Windows RT General] Myriachan:
If you have the 8.0 recovery image, you'll need to actually boot from the USB stick directly. I think that this is due to the invalidation of 8.0 signatures that happened in 8.1. I only know how you do this with Surface RT: with the USB stick connected and the Surface off, hold volume down, then press and hold the power button until you see the Surface logo. It'll then take noticeably longer to boot, since it's reading off USB instead of the built-in SSD.

I don't know how different this procedure would be on an Asus Vivo Tab.
[Windows RT General] tboy2000:
Ok I solved it by downloading a different recovery image to the one I had. Managed to install and boot by volume down button. Strange because my recovery image worked before. All running fine ?

However I then ran into another problem. All of a sudden after a reset I got an error saying "unable to reset your pc. A required hard drive partition is missing". What the heck I did nothing. Also when I tried to use bitlocker recovery key it said the hard drive is locked. Unlock the drive and try again.

So after some hours of research, I booted to command prompt and typed:

bcdboot

and then...

bcdboot c:\windows

and it said boot files copied successfully. I rebooted with fingers crossed and it WORKED!!!

?
[Windows RT General] mamaich:
This may be due to you've reformatted your USB stick to NTFS, then copied there your recovery image, since UEFI can boot only from FAT32 disks.

Glad to see the joys of Windows troubleshooting isn't lost on their tablets.

I'm really considering moving from Android based tablets to Windows 8 tablets once the platform matures a little bit. They run so smoothly (tried a few out at my local Staples). The OS is basically built for touchscreen anyway.

[General Topics] sauprankul:
This phone will never ever ever ever come to carriers.

A) the phone will never exist.

B) even if it will, they will start a new campaign and change the price to a more realistic $850. Can carriers subsidize this to $200? They won't like it much...

C) the phone is the phone equivalent of a Bugatti Veyron. You won't see these just lying around in a store. They are limited production and must be built on a per order basis. Carriers on the other hand, stockpile phones, something canonical can't allow with the little support they have.

D) The margins are extremely small. Ubuntu style. Seriously, look at the specs, then the price. You can't expect a company that has such small margins to really take off and compete with multi billion dollar companies.

This phone is only for hardcore Ubuntu enthusiasts who absolutely must have the best, and can afford it. Since you're American, if you buy this phone, you'll end up paying for it twice during the course of 2 years. More if you keep it longer.

Don't worry. Since Ubuntu is open source, it's only a matter of time before Ubuntu Touch is finalized and flagships start shipping with dual boot capability.
[General Topics] Mix3d:
I backed it, but am sadly anticipating the crowd fund to fail.

If you look at the descriptions, pretty much every hardware aspect is still up in the air, even the cpu architecture. And given how poorly they handled the developer preview release, burst their hype bubble, and only barely have a dd-ready build after all this time, I don't think it would release on time even if it did fund successfully.

Motorola was way ahead of its time starting with the Atrix and its webtop mode, is a shame that they axed it and Google never built in that support after buying Motorola. The whole screen becomes a touchpad when in webtop mode on a tv was really cool. (Granted, the web dock laptop WAS like $500 for a crappy screen and keyboard dock, but still, it worked!)

I REALLY want to see the whole desktop convergence thing happen, but the MHL vs OTG stuff still needs to be worked out and standardized, so one port can simultaneously output hdmi, be a usb host, and still charge the device, before it will be ubiquitous. One dock to rule them all! (Either that or standardize the two-port hdmi & usb side by side with specified orientation and spacing)

In the meantime, newegg has a deal today on a Samsung 11 pin mhl dock sometime today. (Good for s3/4 and notes)

Since the new version of Nexus 7 is coming out next week, should I buy the screen replacement (front assembly) now since this might as low as the prices go or should I wait longer and see if prices will go any lower?

Im afraid that since there will be a new version most wont carry the older version so prices will go up instead of down.

Any thoughts are appreciated.

Hi,

After losing all the data on my phone I decided to use an old backup made from TWRP.

Now I sucessfully restored my backup to my phone and see that all the icons are in place.

But to my dismay it didn't restore the "USB storage" only the "System storage"

Shouldn't it backup *everything* on my phone?

In the USB storage I have my game/apps data and save game files.
