Nobody can really answer this for you at all, we all use our phone differently. I don't run TW, but I will try to give you some pointers to try and save some battery.

Turn off Location Services

Use Auto-Brightness or set it very low yourself

Set 'Min Cpu' to 192 Mhz if the Kernel supports it

Experiment with different Schedulars, and Governors

Remove Facebook (Resource hog), and use Friendcaster

Don't worry with UV, it has a negligible effect and is more pain than gain, sometimes making battery life worse

Limit the amount of apps that constantly check for notifications (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, some games, etc)

Apps that do look for notifications, change their settings to periodic polling, and not push notifications.

Install Better Battery Stats to monitor things like Deep Sleep, and Wakelocks to make sure things are operating properly

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jakesm20:
Hello I recently smashed the screen on my Xperia z. Is there anyway to unlock the phone without using the screen at all? Please can someone help me ive been digging for hours. All i need is to unlock the phone so i can access the data on it via my PC.

The data does not show in windows or via any sony pc apps while the phone is locked.

I read a thread that was to do with the same problem but it was with a NEXUS 7, The post is very old.

Is it possible to do it with an xperia z? I will be so grateful if anyone can help

Ive downloaded SDK already in preparation.

Thank you.

Nope nothing of any real value just heavily distorted colours. cannot touch anything on screen
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrKrFfXx:
OK, so after a while trying to access user partition via adb shell, pull, adb file explorers, etc. With no luck, I found that if:

You turn of your phone, hard power it off in your case since you can't confirm the on screen dialog (volume up + volume up until it vibrates three times).

Now that the device is turned off, plug both ends of the usb cable to the pc and phone, it should beep whatever, and then the charging animation should come up.

Turn on the device and let it boot without unplugging the USB.

When the device gets to the sim unlock screen, the PC should recognize the internal memory and you can access to it, since it probably hasn't load the pattern unlock stuff.

Give it a try. I've just done it several times and can access my data partition entirely.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jakesm20:
Thankyou so much for your help, I wish I could say it worked but it hasn't. I did exactly what you said and my computer starts to recognise the phone but stalls on loading up data. it stops access to ''MY COMPUTER'' until the phone is removed at which point a dialog window pops up saying ''sony xperia z connected'' but of course now its been disconnected i cannot access anything regardless of the dialog window telling me my phone is connected

any other ideas? I really appreciate you putting in the time to help me
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jakesm20:
Just got it to work!!!! Thank you so much for your help. After I realised that the problem for loading extensions may be coming from my PC I ran AVG tuneup which fixes all hidden errors and it worked Instantly.

I recommend AVG tuneup to everyone, especially if you play a lot of games or install a lot of programs. Whenever Ive noticed sluggish performance on my PC i've ran a full scan and it has always fixed any issues.

Thank you so much again for the great help, very impressed with this community and its great attitude toward helping others.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrKrFfXx:
So it was a drivers issue of some sort. Did my method worked in the end? I found it randomly. I call it a security issue though, this time came in handy.

Glad you could fix your problem.

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] rcbear:
OK.. Folks... after all the hard time i am facing with my unit. And all the love and care i spend on my BA. I came to the conclusion that the problem with the "No Sound" issues is link to the bluetooth.

What happened to the "No Sound" issue is that when making/receiving a call, the unit will try to connect to the BlueTooth Handfree profile (even if the Bluetooth is turn off!!!!). So, when this happens, the speaker and mic is disable because the unit "thinks" is connected to the Bluetooth Handfree profile.

Some user suggested that when the "no sound" issues occur, you can either soft reest or you can turn on/off your bluetooth and that will cure the problem for a while units it happens again.

What i did, i disable the entire bluetooth so that it will not load up on startup. Once i did that, the problem never did came back.

Procedures:

On root "Windows/StartUp" remove the file "Run_BTTrayCE" (same it somewhere else) then reset your unit.

Once the unit is reset, the bluetooth will not load on startup, that means the bluetooth is disable.

if you want your bluetooth to run again. you can either place the "Run_BTTrayCE" back on "Windows/StartUp" or to run the "BTTrayCE" in the Windows dir.

I hope some experts here can take this advice and see if they have any clue with what's going on..

BTW: Upgrading Radio Rom, or Bluetooth stack will not do anything so pls. don't waste your time on it.

I hope i have helped someone out there who is piss with this problem.

Hey there!

I like your solution but I personally think it might be a bit overkill! I used to use the Bluetooth all the time on my XDAII but on my XDAIIs I only use it for my bluetooth GPS. I am going to try deleting the profile for my Bluetooth headset and see if that makes any difference (seen as I don't use it because the sound quality is terrible).

I'll post back with results!

Still dont work even take away the file!

Hi, I do it as you say

just cut and past the file into my Storage Card

and i do a soft reset

"No sound no voice " problem still exist

Should i just delete the file entirely instead of just cut and paste it some where?

I am afraid that i will loose this file forever therefore i save it on my storage card

i dont know if this going to be a problem?

Please help this problem make me sick for almost 5 days already
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] TheLastOne:
Umm, creamcream, there is no reason to worry. In the worst case scenario where you lose the file, you can just re-flash your rom, or ask another forum member to send you the file. I would gladly do so.

creamcream: Is your bluetooth disabled? And, if so, you are still experiencing the no-sound problem? Because if you are, then you have discredited this theory.

Hi, i solve the problem at this time

I just want to knwo how u update 1.40 rom?

is it stable?

Official?

I am worry that if that is not official it will be very dangerous for my Xda IIS

by the way is it fit for all model

such as

is it simple to do so?

can i have the link where to download thankyou "thelastone"
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] TheLastOne:
If you are planning on upgrading your rom to the current highest version, 1.40.00, then I recommend you check out wiki for instructions:

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel

If you do it properly, it is perfectly safe.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] rcbear:
Re: Still dont work even take away the file!

Hi Creamcream

I just want to know when you move "Run_BTTrayCE" to your SD Card and follow by a soft reset. When you unit boots up, do you see the BT icon on the bottom right hand corner? If the icon is still there, that mean you haven't successfully disable your Bluetooth from startup.

Also, the other way to try it is try running your bluetooth manager. if your bluetooth is turn off, it will give you a errors message saying your Bluetooth fail to turn on.. somthing like that.

Pls let me know your result....

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] stachoo:
You don't need to disable BT completely,

it will be enought to disable Hands-Free service

in BT Settings/Services/Hands-Free/

uncheck: Enable service

and in Advanced menu

uncheck "Telephone calls" for sure

GUYS

what about this problem :

The bluetooth turns off when you power off the screen ??
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] kennethm:
My findings so far:

If I keep Bletooth on all the time "nosound" never happens. At least not for about a week and did no softresets. However after some time something brakes regarding bletooth serial. The GPS thinks it´s online but nothing gets through. Closing and opening the serial port cures it momentarily. (This was with handfree services enabled). This never happend when I toogled Bluetooth on/off regulary.

Tried the trick to disable handsfree service yesterday but without unchecking "use handsfree for telephone calls". With Bluetooth turned off tonight the nosound reappeared, so just disable the main handfree service is not enough.

Have now also unchecked "use handsfree for telephone calls" and will report back if nosound occurs again.

(To the guy whos Bluetooth turns off: You probably have an old sw version where our nosound problem had not been introduced yet. 1.12.00 or soo...)
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] kennethm:
Disabled BT handfree and unchecked "Telephone calls" yesterday but unfortunately the nosound bug hit anyway tonight.

The idea to disable the handsfree service was a nice one but no, it did not prevent the nosound bug to strike!

Back to my own solution that sofar has prevented the nosound bug: Keep Blutooth on all the time.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] faaz:
i have tested all this but the only thing that wrked was...

right guys I have been reading and trying but the only thing thats worked for ME was radio rom upgrade seriously. I have an SPV m2000, i have tried all ROM updates, and at the moment I am on is...

by the way I upgraded to radio version 1.12 but this never solved it so i went back to 1.10 which works,

ROM version: 1.40.00 WWE

ROM date: 03/10/05

radio version: 1.10.00

protocol version:1337.391

ExtROM version:1.31.124

I dont know but i managed to only install what I wanted of this (orange rubbish ext rom)

NOW FOR THE DOWNSIDE MY UNIT USED TO BE SOFT RESETTED EVERYDAY, but now i only reset very very LESS times, its definetly better than before I can vouch for that. BUT WE NEED SOMETHING SOLID.

I have no sound from speaker (only on incoming call - it rings)

But in all other cases it keeps silence.

Flashing new ROM doesn't helps too.

It didn't helps for me.

Nor Bluetooth disabling, nor Flashing.

You say that you solve that issue.

What to do?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] gadd3000:
I have the galaxy note 2 for sprint rooted with synergy rom and perseus kernel. I am able to use data just fine but can not make or receive voice calls. Sprint has been able to temporarily fix the problem. I also did a backup and reset that fixed it temporarily. I have read that other users with rooted phones are having similar issues and even people without rooted phones are having problems with sprint's network. I can't tell if my issue is because my phone is rooted or because the galaxy note 2 on sprint is having issues. Should I just restore it to stock firmware?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] lovekeiiy:
I've had that issue as well. I was on a stock rooted ROM at the time. I restored the phone to stock, and still had the issue. I think my issue was Google Voice. I like it for voice mail. I didn't do the whole Sprint-Google Voice integration. Sprint had to remove Google Voice to fix it. It's lame. If you have Google Voice, it may be worth exploring.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sceme29:
Not sure what is causing this or how to fix it but i am experiencing the same thing on my whomp rom with the latest perseus kernel. This had happened to my last note 2 about 3 weeks ago so i had it replaced by a service center. It was working fine until last night. I was in a call and all of a sudden it lost signal, came back and when i tried calling, the call went through but i cannot hear anything, not on the headset, speaker or bluetooth.So im still not able to make or receive calls and dont know what to do lol.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] gadd3000:
called ffonsu

I erased my data 3 times, unrooted my phone and restored to factory. After I return from vacation I'll use Google voice and see if that's the problem. If not then I'll add the synergy rom. If it still works then I'll add perseus kernel. We could have all gotten bad downloads, but I'll investigate.

I restored my phone to stock rom, re-rooted it and am now running mack's all star 5.0 with no problems. The problem may have been with the kernel because I did not reinstall perseus.

I then decided to do a reinstall of supernexus, after that i lost all cell network connectivity. So i tried a cyanogen mod, again i got no 3g and the screen glitch.

So finally im on rootbox I have cell network connectivity back, but i still have this graphical issue, and im not sure if its driver related or hardware or what. i just have a feeling that its the locking screen glitching.

All.that has to be done is read Anandtech review. It has been fixed and a dramatic improvement over previous model. He has several benchmarks and test figures to back it up.

---------- Post added at 08:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:12 AM ----------

Yes, it will help. Various reports from original nexus7 owners said improvement was drastic. Anantech broke it down as to how the new feature in 4.3 works to achieve this. Its something called Ftrim, I believe. It cleans up and prevents device memory.from being bogged down after its loaded with apps and stuff. So users who updated to 4.3 on OG nexus7 are already seeing improvements. I will be updating both of my nexus7's soon to 4.3.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Nbsss:
"Fstrim" ;)

I was using it for the last couple of months on my OG N7 and it helped a lot. The app was called 'lagfix', it manually ran the fstrim utility that was present in android 4.2, but not yet implemented until 4.3 :)

Any videos that I've seen so far show the new N7 demonstrating noticeable lag. In fact the responsiveness seems on par with that of the 2012 model. Worse, in some videos, when compared to my current 2012 with CM and M-kernel.

Anyway, I'll be waiting for at least a month to see how things settle down (can't rely on just a few videos). As it stands now, for my needs and uses, the V2 doesn't seem worth it based on what I've seen...
