Anybody know of a source for a replacement LCD for an SX-66? Mine got cracked somehow a few hours ago...
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] narzuhl:
http://www.pocketpctechs.com

Did mine and a great job at that. Fast and freindly service. (not so quick on the Emails though) Called them and got everything sorted out.

I had some speaker problems after they did mine and they fixed it without any complaints. I had a friend send his unit in there as well and his came back flawless.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] bobby3306:
Hello, so I've been I've been searching around and haven't come up with a definitive answer. I've had the s4 for a couple months now and have been using an excessive amount of data, when I haven't been doing anything out of the norm. With my s2 I had a5 gb plan and only got throttled once in awhile, but with the s4 my data has jumped tremendously. I've used almost 16 gb this month and 21 gb last month.

Android os is to blame for 6gb this month and 12 gb last month, all clocked in as back ground usage. Why? Wth is this phone doing to use so much data. . I have unlimited no throttling plan, but if I was still on 5 gb I'd be screwed. I just would like to know how I can stop this.

Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:
Its called tethering.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:
Dude, nothing on your phone, other than maybe a torrent client, can use 21 gigs of data without your consent. And since its saying "Android system" is responsible for the data usage, its you tethering. Period. You asked, so i answered.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] bobby3306:
What part of saying I don't tether other than hotspot which I'm limited to 500mb from Tmobile do you not understand? Also said I haven't increased use from my what ive done on the gs2 and actually there are several posts online of others experiencing this as well but no solution. I did ask but you surely haven't answered.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] nicotheandroidguy:
LTE could be the answer it uses much more data to get data back to you faster.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Towle:
Your attitude isn't going to get anybody to help you. People are offering you advice, no need to be rude.

As far as your data, it can be many things. I would start by keeping track of each app's data usage over a few day span.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] XxKINGxX2580:
What towle is saying is right. We do this to try to help people. We don't get paid for this. We do this voluntarily, and if you have a bad attitude nobody will want to help you.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] XxKINGxX2580:
Well try calling T-Mobile. They can tell you exactly the reason why your phone is using so much data.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] bobby3306:
Thanks for reply, I have been connected to Ite alot lately, but would that show as android OS usage thou? and its background data
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Adam0524:
Do you happen to have/use Google Music/All access? Its been known to eat thru data and hit your cap in the matter of just a few days.

edit- BTW if you got to settings/data usage it'll tell you what apps are using the most data;
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] XxKINGxX2580:
And another thing. Read the forum rules. No cursing. And be nice. This isn't our problem. It's yours.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Peñaran561:
I have been having the same problem too. That is why I have been on Wi-Fi this month. I also do not tether or use Google music. I have talked to T-Mobile reps and I get the same response,"have you been using any Google applications or tethering." Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] bobby3306:
nope I don't stream music, no video, I only email, surf the Web, fb, eBay, I do have to upload Alot pix for work, but no more than I've done b4 the gs4.

And I know about data usage, the most is getting clocked in under Android os
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] bobby3306:
Actually Alot of people have this problem, while searching b4 coming here I've read serval baffled users. Some not lucky enough to have unlimited data and getting poundedwith $800 phone bills for overages.

Like I saidI'm not here to argue, but don't tell me how im using my phone. If you can't handle being told your suggestion isn't the cause than you need not reply.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] bobby3306:
yes, this is Def a real issue, tethering is Def not the cause for one thing it shows as it's own data consumption for hot spot Tmobile Gave me the same and kept telling me you must be doing this and that. Would say nope sure haven't. There final conclusion was well we don't know. But on the gs2 I never exceeded 6gb, if I still had the same plan id been throttled the second week
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] nicotheandroidguy:
Yeah it looks like a software bug that shows Android system using alot of data so that could be play music all Access, tethering, or a bug.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] BrooklynNY:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] bobby3306:
I'll give it a shot and see if it helps any thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] bobby3306:
I've gone thru and froze all those apps in hopes of diagnosing that being the cause, ive froze 1 at a time and Monitored the use trying to determine if one was causing it. There all froze and have been for week and Android os still used 1.4gb in a week
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] nicotheandroidguy:
I've got no clue what else it would be sorry.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] bobby3306:
Thanks anyway, I guess certain devices have a bug making them background data hungry. I feel for the people I read that have been hit with severe charges for data overages with there carriers.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:
Hotspot is tethering.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] kabloomz:
What he said...

There have been reports before too that the Tmo hotspot App does not report correct usage.

There are so many variables to this question that one can only speculate.

1) What apps are you using. How big are the files/pictures that you are sending? You do know the S4 may take better resolution photos and could be bigger files than before.

2) Stock firmware? Anyone else using your Hotspot? Not trying to argue with you but it doesn't really sound right about having a unlimited non throttled plan but yet Hotspot is limited. I guess so they won't abuse the unlimited?

3) Do you use google voice/talk? Skype? Video calling?

4) Freezing apps alone won't help as there are plenty of android services that use data. Now using 21 GB for apps and services alone is quite excessive. You may have an app that is constantly syncing and resyncing (like tons of spam email accounts etc...) It's a better idea to monitor/audit how much data you use

try this app

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobidia.android.mdm

I don't use it personally but it may help you find the answer.

Cheers :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] jslim38:
Good morning here's what I discovered on my s4 .last billing cycle has ended for me and I have found out that when you use alot of data it doesn't matter if your downloading or uploading for some strange reason they do see that as tethering even though your not I know because I've done it when you download alot and you we all know that tmobile 4g data plan isn't truly unlimited on once that is used then you start using the allotment in your tethering plan.even though your not tethering at all and this will happen even if you have the 500 and the 2.5 and the 4.5 tethering plan all you have to do is use alot of data so my suggestion is if have any apps installed delete them and monitor for a day and if you see no data has been used then problem solved because I know all the apps that run in the background and they eat up data vary fast .
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] bobby3306:
Yes I know this, it has its own data tracker, and I CAN'T GO OVER 500MB A MONTH BEFORE IT GETS SHUT OFF, TETHERING IS NOT THE CAUSE OF ANDROID OS USING 6GB
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] bobby3306:
1) What apps are you using. How big are the files/pictures that you are sending? You do know the S4 may take better resolution photos and could be bigger files than before.

I've lowered my resolution to only 6mp to allow emails to send.

2) Stock firmware? Anyone else using your Hotspot? Not trying to argue with you but it doesn't really sound right about having a unlimited non throttled plan but yet Hotspot is limited. I guess so they won't abuse the unlimited?

I'm stock rooted and yes the Tmobile unlimited plan comes with 500mb of tethering included past that you have buy more. And no I only use it sparingly for my tablet on the go.

3) Do you use google voice/talk? Skype? Video calling?

Nope never use these

4) Freezing apps alone won't help as there are plenty of android services that use data. Now using 21 GB for apps and services alone is quite excessive. You may have an app that is constantly syncing and resyncing (like tons of spam email accounts etc...) It's a better idea to monitor/audit how much data you use

The most excessive one is Android os. And all the apps that I use we on my gs2 no problem. Bloat has been removed or froze.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] bobby3306:
we all know that tmobile 4g data plan isn't truly unlimited on once that is used then you start using the allotment in your tethering plan.even though your not tethering at all and this will happen even if you have the 500 and the 2.5 and the 4.5 tethering plan all you have to do is use alot of data

No they have an actual unlimited plan now. .. no caps no throttling I can use 5000gb if I want to. .. just wanted to know y Android os was using so much in the background.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] kabloomz:
That is weird.

As I am currently in AU right now I can't really test it out. Would hate to put my tmo sim in and turn on data roaming I will be raped for sure on international data lol.

What I do know is that if the issue is the same with every phone (m919 tmobiles) then I would have already been royally screwed since AU plan I am on now only has about 1GB data monthly and I have to top off (recharge) if I needed more data. This is currently NOT the case with me and I am on stock rooted as well.

Off topic : I didn't know there is "truly" an unlimited plan with Tmo atm. What are you paying monthly? Something I might be keen to switch. My current grandfathered plan is $80 unlimited for 2. Data throttled after 5GB and everything moves on EDGE.

If that plan is unlimited OP you should try custom or tether hack so you won't have to worry about using Tmo Hotspot.

Keep us posted if u figure out where the cookie monster is... :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] bobby3306:
Yea when I upgraded to s4 they changed my plan around, unlimited talk text and web. B4 on the my Tmobile site it had unlimited Internet up to 5gb high speed. Now it says unlimited up to 9,765 gb high speed, I asked y it said that instead of just unlimited, Rep told me not to worry if I managed to use that much data in a month then they would change it lol.

I pay $175 for 2 lines with insurance.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Yepiz92:
I used 21GB of data last month too!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] bobby3306:
Android os eating up good bit of that?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] faiyo:
You'll never figure this out without using some tools. The simplest way is to log into your wifi router and use some of it's features and logs to get an idea of what the unwanted network traffic is. If it's all google stuff then research it and figure out more.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] rscottjr1987:
My Usage

I just want to commant on my usage, and seeing as how you have unlimited as I do I thouhgt this would be nice to share. My bill restarted 10 days ago and I have used a whooping 89GB of data I use on advage a month about 300 or so GB it that is mostly from downloading roms and watching alot of netflix and tethering
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] bobby3306:
Yea true unlimited is Def nice, 300 gb dam lol never been close to that. I just feel bad for those with other carriers getting smacked with 700-1400 phone bills for overages.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] AB33:
It could be all of your pictures and videos backing up to Google Plus causing the data drain. When my wife went from an Amaze to the GS3 and I didn't check back up over Wifi only she used like 9 GB in a week and every picture and video still wasn't uploaded.
[Google Chromecast] gsu_golfer:
I'm not seeing my Chromecast through my other devices with this new router. I eventually gave up and just plugged the old router in and gave the Chromecast it's own wireless network and we'll just use our phones on that one for now.

This setup does seem to have stopped the problem of the network being crippled by the CC, at least.
[Google Chromecast] magimog:
I had to upgrade the firmware and set IP on a DMZ address to get it to connect. Tried it on another N150 in another network and didn't have to do that process. Kind of baffled.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mahendru1992:
I have a pretty bad battery drainage problem. Multidp and 12_hsic wakelocks are prevalent. The most noticeable is the Phone app waking up the most.

Steps I've taken to combat the High battery drainage

Disabled Fast Dormancy

Greenified Facebook, Playstore, PlayBooks and Keep

All but contacts and chrome are checked under the autosync settings

Even tried apps like Juice Defender, but the battery drainage increased to a whole new level; deleted the app

Installed a custom kernel. Undervolted by -50mv

ROM: CrDroid

Kernel: Temasek Kernel

P.S Tried the BetterBatteryStats thread, but no one did help me there. :/ Hope I solve my problem here. Attached the idle dump.

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4954775:
The Problem is The ROM , not the Phone.

Android 4.3 isn't optimized for S3 yet .

That causes Battery Drain Problems.

My Recommendation is that you search another 4.3 ROM or Downgrade to 4.2.2 or lower.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Striatum_bdr:
Previous post is wrong.

Your two first kernel wakelocks mean network use. Search for background sync apps, check Wi-Fi advanced settings and disable Google constant search.

Greenify all apps, except the vital ones for your usage. With paid app and xposed framework you can even freeze push message ones.

All this can be found in a couple of minutes with Google.

Some can achieve .2 %/hour in deep sleep with 4.3.

The Rom is not the culprit.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chaitanyapatel8880:
You wont get good battery life on

IDLE

on AOKP, AOSP or CM ROMs. No matter what you do. battery life is ok while the phone is awake but when it is in deepsleep still it consumes the battery on AOKP, AOSP or CM ROMs.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mahendru1992:
Yes i know AOSP,AOPK & CM don't have as good an idle drain as the touchwiz ROMs, but in my case we do know the reason. So it has to some other reason
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mahendru1992:
Already had Google constant search disabled. And 4.3 is not xposed framework compatible. So can't use that.

And I have disabled background syncing except for chrome and contacts. It's the phone app waking up that's probably the culprit
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Striatum_bdr:
I use xposed framework... It's compatible.

2.1.4 apk framework works well. Some people need to use SuperSu instead of super user, you can put it with a file explorer in system/app, then reboot and run, there is even a cwm zip somewhere to flash the framework directly.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MoonBlade:
i dont get it.. your battery drainage is just 1.1% / hour
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mahendru1992:
Yes I know it's just 1.1% but you gotta see that this is just an idle drain. When I start using the phone on day to day basis, it doesn't even last the whole evening let alone the whole day. I'm down to 20% by mid afternoon when i unplug my phone at 8 A.M. .

Whereas when I was on stock, as the people above have said, my battery drain was around .4% and the phone used to last around a day and a half with moderate usage. Yes I know that I can never have that good a battery, but atleast I should be able to eliminate most of the wakelocks with this ROM. But the typical methods like disabling FD, greenifying apps etc etc don't seem to work.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sliddjur:

Hi

I got this Extra Battery Kit 1.900mAh EB-K5000BEWEGWW for my I9192 S4 mini Duo which unfortunately has the sticker S4mini LTE.

The original battery in my s4 Mini is B500AE, the one in the kit is B500BE . Can I still use it? is it the right battery? or I should return it to the seller?

Cheers
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Accessories] Whosat:
The battery kit is meant for the LTE model but the battery should work fine with your phone anyway. The only difference should be the addition of the NFC antenna in the battery (thus the need for a fourth pin, which the battery kit's charger doesn't use)
