[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krzysiekx:
Hi.

So my Awesome man [MENTION=5051515]tetakpatak[/MENTION] helped me to fix my phone yesterday. Although it seemed hard it was quite easy. Too easy. That's where my question goes. I installed Froyo "stock" rom after my phone was "broken" and after that got a new kernel and installed CM.

Can I do this every time? I mean when I want to change Kernel or Rom I could just wipe phone, Install Froyo by Odin and later go with any ROM that there is in ROM section?

Or it doesn't work that way? Or I need to install older versions of roms and update them?

Lets say I want to install ParanoidAndroid or Darky instead of my CM now - I just wipe all data and cache and install.zip thru CWM?

What about Kernel?

Thanks in advance, have a nice day.

Chris
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tetakpatak:
Great it works now, mate :)

In general, yes, after anything with custom ROMs goes wrong it is best one can do to reflash it with a stock ROM. It can actually be any stock ROM, I just adviced to do it with Froyo as I've checked short ago that all download links are still "alive".... and.... in my opinion Froyo is somehow really good ground to be updated to the CM.

So it would be wise to save all the files and software you used, as they worked well for your phone :)

No problem flashing and trying other ROMs. Always read well the opening post of the threads and pay attention what is important to do. Always save your data externally (and backup your IMEI/efs with terminal emulator app) and wipe all before changing ROM. If anything goes wrong by overwriting your custom ROM, flash stock ROM again and upgrade from there :)

My last words.... to all users of an amazing, old, good SGS GT-i9000: please consider to make a little donation to the developer pawitp. That amazing developer keeps this phone still alive. Nearly all kernels and ROMs you find on the forum wouldn't exist if pawitp wasn't there. He now works on stabilizing the CM10.2 / Android 4.3 for our beloved i9000 somewhere in Thailand, and he doesn't even own this phone!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MikeyRomero:
Kernels

Do you need to wipe data in order to install a new kernel? I've never tried it before and would rather not mess it up.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
No need, just flash the kernel using mobile odin from phone or odin3 as PDA in PC

What is the best point to charge at for battery longetivity?? I don't know anything about batteries.. would be good top know
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Muikkuman:
Interesting question. I charge it when it say "connect you charger"
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] savini72:
i agree. i charge it when it tells me it needs to be charged
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Beaverman20:
The battery in a nexus 7 flo is a Lithium ion battery (as one would expect). This particular kind of battery lasts longer if you top it off all the time (Meaning you should charge it whenever you can). A table and explanation can be read here: http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/how_to_prolong_lithium_based_batteries
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] catlog:
What the first reply said. I charge when it's time to do so.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] asp2010:
I did some reading on battery university some time ago and concluded the best way to save battery health is to keep it as much as possible between 40 and 80%, as well as try to not leave it full or completely discharge.

I've been using this method on my phone for more than a year and the battery hasn't noticeably lost capacity.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] NovaSlim:
I charge it whenever possible, Battery nowadays trickle charge so always plugged in does not damage battery longevity. Install Gsam battery monitor and you will see even during charging the battery doesn't get much hotter than 30C and Lithium batteries is fine at temps below 45C.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Muikkuman:
Yes I've heard this before.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] tweaked:
Its on a charger when I am not using it. Unless I am on the road.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] PJ Clifford:
+1 for me. When I pick it up to use it, I like it a 100% charge. I don't always know when I first disconnect it, if I am going to use it for 5 minutes or 5 hours. If I waited until it called for a charge and picked it up with, say, 25% power, I would be screwed if I wanted to use it for a long period of time. I wish they came with swappable batteries like a phone, so I could get a couple of spares, keep them optimally charged and then switch when the one in the N7 got low. Alas.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] pheonix991:
I charge mine while I sleep. Haven't ran it dead yet.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Kookas:
Best solution is a portable power pack, it just adds some extra bulk. Someone will eventually release a battery pack case to take advantage of the wireless charging.

Is it still the case that the earlier you recharge, the longer your battery will survive? I haven't run my Nexus 7 into the red so far, which is pretty easy to avoid when it lasts for longer on one charge than I could ever imagine using it non-stop.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] techToys7:
There was an article on Gizmodo that recommends not to let it go below about 40%. I would post a link, but XDA's not letting me. :(
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] spackmanbr:
This. You guys that are allowing it to reach the point where it tells you to change are causing premature wear on your batteries, especially if you allow it to reach the point of turning itself off. Nothing is going to immediately fail, you're just going to start wearing out your battery faster. We'll all eventually reach that point of reduced capacity or inability to accept a charge.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] pheonix991:
I'd be leary of gawker information. They really aren't the best place to get accurate advice.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Hnk1:
I just fully charge it and then let it to go till 3-12 before charging it again.

Not trying to charge alot and trying to keep the cycle from 0-100 again and again
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] RojasTKD:
I try charge my devices before they hit 50%. Doing so will about double the longevity of you batteries. Of course their are times when this is not possible, but with a car charger and several QI wireless chargers it not a problem most of the time.

---------- Post added at 04:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:02 PM ----------

That is the worst way to do it with modern Li-ion batteries.

---------- Post added at 04:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:03 PM ----------

Exactly!
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Kookas:
Do you only let it charge to 80%, or do you let it charge to 100%?
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] asp2010:
Only up until 80%. If you have to charge close to 100%, at least try not to leave it in that state for long, since that's what damages the battery. Also, try not to discharge below 10%.

Of course, these are all just guidelines. You battery will degrade anyway, it's just a matter of time. There will be minimal impact if you do a full charge-discharge cycle from time to time, but the less often you do it, the better for your battery :good:
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] PJ Clifford:
That's a possibility. Do you have any recommendations?
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] khaytsus:
Charge early and often, keep it cool, and don't discharge heavily and it'll last for years.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] YourBoinLoins:
If I'm sitting in my chair next to my charger I just plug it in regardless of the percent. When I play real racing 3 or riptide go I unplug it and when I'm done I plug it back in. Just so if I have to go somewhere were I won't be able to charge I have a full battery
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Muhaimen Ayyub:
Here,s your answer.

I bought Android for the first time in my life in form of Nexus 7. I am very happy for what I choose lol going off topic.

I spent my 4 to 5 hours studying about Li ion batteries the conclusion I got that charge your battery when its 40%-35% when you completely discharge a Li ion battery it reduces its battery life only you have to mange that I myself get used to it and also don't over charge it not more than 85% that's it.

Its only from my knowledge if you study other than that please do share with us also if I share anything wrong please correct me and sorry for my grammatical mistakes.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Kookas:
Last one I bought was a PowerGen, but that was for a phone about a year ago. Haven't had a use for one more recently.

The 85% thing doesn't seem worth it, though. I don't want a worn battery, but manually reducing how long I can get on a single charge seems just as bad.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] PhilipL:
Hi

Lithium batteries have a finite number of charge/discharge cycles, they are also perishable, so even if not used their capacity diminishes with age.

We don't know what the number of full charge/discharge cycles are with the Asus Nexus 7 2013, or I've not seen it published, these can vary depending on how hard the manufacturer decides to push the battery chemistry.

Lithium batteries get more charge cycles the further from each extreme they are kept, so charging to 80% and only discharging to 30% could more than double the number of charge/discharge cycles, but then that means charging it twice as much anyway, so using up a lot of those cycles just keeping it within those upper and lower limits.

The charging circuits in these modern devices do a very good job at protecting the battery even when charging from 0-100%, and the chances are most of us will replace the Nexus 7 with another model long before we see any degradation in battery capacity.

Basically, just do what you like with it, charge it whenever it is convenient, over the long term life of the device what ever you do will make little overall difference to the life span of the battery. Even if you don't use it at all, after a couple of years it has lost 20% of its capacity anyway.

The main killer of lithium batteries is temperature. This is why laptop batteries never do well when a laptop is used mainly on mains power, it has much less to do with overcharging (lithium batteries can't be over charge, if they did you'd know about it), but everything to do with the battery being constantly warmed by the operating laptop.

Regards

Phil
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] khaytsus:
So close yet so wrong. Read the battery University to understand "charge cycles"
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] RojasTKD:
Correct, 50 charges from 60% to 100% is not equal to 50 charges from 20% to 100%.

Basically the charge cycles has less to do with how many time you put it on the charger and more to do with the depth of the discharge. Also the deeper the discharge the harder it is on the battery.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] daraldf:
I have a Qi charger on my nightstand and the N7 sits on it from about 11 PM to 7 AM every night regardless of the battery level. I really haven't let it get below 50% much.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Matrix_19:
QFTT

Everything you do to preserve the battery is mostly useless if you change your tab in the next 2 years... It is useful only if you plan to keep it for a very long time.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] RojasTKD:
Well it's not like I'm going to throw away my device in two year just because I got a new one. It could become a dedicated living room, restroom, kitchen tablet. Or I could give it to family or a friend.

I'm not going to obsess over it, but will try to keep my device and battery in good order.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Kookas:
In which case you probably want it on charge all the time anyway, so that it's always available, the screen can be kept on for convenience, and you don't have to keep removing it from whatever it's attached to to stick it on the plug for 3 hours.
[HTC One X+] alizawi:
So, what exactly is this new video highlight feature we got with sense 5, and how does it work? I'm running stock all the way, and I see a highlight folder in my gallery. However, all the folders have the same option to run a slide show, but that's it... I'm sure that's not the "cool" video highlight feature that I've read about everywhere. Am I missing something here?
[HTC One X+] alizawi:
so I guess I'm not the only one who doesn't fully get this thing then? strange that there's no help topic about it..
[HTC One X+] fred_be9300:
I'm guessing that's what it is... In fact I'd like a way to hide / delete / prevent the video highlights for some events where they make no sense, like when I photograph the whiteboard at the end of a meeting....

Still looking for a way to do that

Ps: I would speculate it looks better on a real One, as then the video highlights can be based on Zoe videos, instead of being based on still photos (and perhaps regular videos)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tattoo_Paul:

Have been following this guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1863547 But I can't ask questions on the thread, cause I'm new on XDA. Need a volunteer to walk me through correcting errors (love bacon except when I see it as an error).

The guide is good but it isn't for the Note 10.1, so it is difficult translating it to the n8013.

Anybody wanna help? I will give credit to any and all who help.

[#Intro]

Oh, and now there's these Lollipops I'm handing out. They are free as always, and they are very very delicious.

[#Why]

[#Info]

I need people testing and finding bugs if anything is going to be fixed. I might not have the Bluetooth devices you have, I might not use the camera as much as you, I might not use 4G LTE (or mobile data in general really) as much as you; you get the idea. :)

Known Issues

- Camera can be a little touchy, but it generally works.

Lollipop Changelogs can be found in the post below!

(KitKat) BETA INFO:

Beta builds are using updated GPU drivers (and an updated kernel to go with them) courtesy of [MENTION=2633638]Ziyan[/MENTION], as well as being up to date with the latest stuff from OmniROM. NOTE: YOU CANNOT FLASH A DIFFERENT KERNEL WITH THESE BUILDS.

Currently broken with the new GPU drivers:

- Hardware Video Decoding FIXED 2014/10/06

- Hardware Video Encoding(?) FIXED 2014/10/08

- Camera (PARTIALLY) FIXED 2014/10/08

- The stock camera app (as well as Google Camera) has this weird quirk of crashing when pressing the shutter button to take a picture, however many different camera apps on the Play Store (in particular Camera ZOOM FX) work flawlessly. Video recording is generally OK, however I've been getting some reports of the audio and video being a little out of sync, so your mileage may vary...

See the Changelog post below for..... well..... changelogs.

[#GApps]

Known Issues​

- The screenrecord command does not work directly, however it does work via the Power menu.

- There can be a slight (noticeable, but not huge) delay when pressing the Recents or Home button.

Screens?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MWisBest:
I plan on finishing up the thread when I wake up. I've pretty much pulled an all-nighter and need to get some rest, especially after the night I had at work (I was literally doing the jobs of 2 other people and nearly quit!). It really doesn't look any different than just a stock CM 10.2 build, I don't think I've really changed anything with the interface (yet, anyway).

So, expect screens in maybe 10 hours or so. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Multisupermono:
Flashing this now! It looks pretty awesome! :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MWisBest:
Thanks! I appreciate your interest in my ROM. :)

I'm going to be doing a fresh build right now and then I'll get up some screenshots. Should be a couple hours or so.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nitsua98:
Looks cool, I'm must wondering if the MMS/no phone # bug is fixed yet.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MWisBest:
I'm not quite sure what you mean by that. MMS has worked fine for me and so have phone calls. Was this pertaining to my ROM or another one?

EDIT: By the way, build is taking a little longer than I thought it would, not quite sure where it's at yet. I'll give an update on the progress in the next hour or so. Also, I have to wait 2 minutes to make and/or edit a post, it says I need a "reasonable post count" before that timer goes down; I also had wanted to post this on the DevDB as when I posted the topic it told me I should, however I couldn't find where to do that. I presume I have to be a "Recognized Developer" or something before it'll let me. If anybody knows the post count I need to remove the 2 minute timer and/or how to be a Recognized Developer, please let me know! :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nitsua98:
CyanogrnMod has had a bug recently where your phone number says 'unknown' and something is messed with the prl. I guess in your build it's already merged. Could you check to see if you're phone number is down in About Phone>Status? Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MWisBest:
Last night I did have to reboot my phone as it was stuck on "Searching For Service" for some odd reason and it said I was "Out of Service" in About Phone, but my phone number was still there and still is. I'm guessing I either already merged in the fix or maybe I just merged in the bug, I'll have to check! Thanks for the heads up.

EDIT: It looks like it's related to the most recent 3 commits merged here: http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/q/s...nogenMod/android_frameworks_opt_telephony,n,z

I do a repo sync before I do a build, so it looks like I pulled those in before I did the build last night. Should be good to go!

EDIT2: Today's build should be finishing up shortly. Most future builds should be faster than this one, once in a while (once per week maybe?) I like to start with a fresh build rather than just an incremental one. Incremental builds just rebuild what's needed based on what code has changed, however it isn't perfect; a fresh build ends up rebuilding everything from scratch. Once the build finishes I'll give it a quick test and then upload it along with some screenshots.
