Guys, seriously, disable history location and history report on google settings. also disable find remotely and restore original setting on google settings aswell

(if you want to search and wipe youre stolen phone, use Wheres my droid for example)

You can shurely expect a lot more juice after that. Will prove it later with pics tomorow.

Hi for the last few weeks my phone has only been charging to 92% after been on charge all night I have tryed different ROMs and kernels but still the same even tryed different chargers and a new battery but still no further forwards please help me
[LG Optimus 4X HD] teyma:
I have the same "problem". Stuck at 92%. I recommend you to read this thread.

You can calibrate battery (reset battery stats) using app such as Battery Calibration. (Your device has to be rooted i guess.) You can also delete battery stats in cwm/advanced/wipe battery stats. It's recommended to calibrate it when installing a new rom.

It might help if you plug it in when battery drops <15% (don't let it drop below 5%) and keep charging it until is full (you can add 15 minutes).

I hope that makes your battery stats become more accurate.

[LG Optimus 4X HD] turnerdavid60:
Wonder if the 3845#*880# doesn't work withCyanogenMod ROMs
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Flying_Bear:
it doesnt. it's actually an app by lg that gets triggered by this command.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] m4nd4rin:
I got 4X HD a few days ago and i too had a really bad battery life with stock rom and kernel.

So i rooted the phone and installed Vanir rom and the battery life increased hugely and the rom feels very snappy.

Before this i had SGS2, it was good but this one is way better :)
[LG Optimus 4X HD] sagpatel:
Using parandroid but no signigicant battery improvement, will check vanir later
[LG Optimus 4X HD] s4wk:
I feel that this phone has not a really good hardware for the network. Both mobile and WiFi devices are affected by some troubles. In particular, WiFi has a bad driver implementation which causes many wakelocks and battery drain on populated networks.

And mobile device does not take much signal, compared with my old devices. This causes battery drain as well. Specially when using data mobile.

If we sum the quad core CPU and big screen, the battery life goes down pretty fast.

The only way to"avoid" these problems is to install a good custom kernel and hope to have a nice reception on mobile for whole day ;)
[LG Optimus 4X HD] dimi89:
Switch to 2G when using WiFi and you will improove your battery life since wifi is less draining battery.Best rom for me is LiquidSmooth rom.If you dont mind 4.2 Android you should try it.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] s4wk:
I'm using 2G only and Wifi disables when phone is in deep sleep. I'm actually using the ROM+kernel shown in the signature.

Battery is way better after upgrading the iodak kernel to the testing version v8.5.

Hi my phone still wont charge past 92% after been on charge all night tryed different chargers and factory reset phone back to jelly bean but no change running out of options even bought a new battery help needed.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] dimi89:
Maybe just software "glitch" or maybe something serious.Factory reset in 90% help but sometimes only full wipe and new flash will help.So try it and report.

P.S.Does it say Battery full or charged ?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] turnerdavid60:

Hi ive done full wipe and totally retored phone using lg flash tool to how it was when bought. It says its charging still at 92% but if i unplug it then plug it back in it sometimes goes up to 100% but dont no why its not getting there when on charge all night allways use to iv even got greenify on so everything should be hybernated in the night cheers.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] konichwa:
So I've fine some searching and it seems nearly impossible to make these later androids Mount as a external hard drive like we used to.

Is there any easy to make it pure plug and play or do I need a third part apps to make it happen? If so--- I guess, what is the easiest way to make it happen (seems kind of lame imo).

Any help would be great. Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] konichwa:
Well-- let me answer my own question through a weblink i just found on stock exchange. haha but, what's so good about MTP/Media Transfer Protocol?

Anyhow, this is what I got:

Go to Settings→About Phone/Tablet.

Go to “Build Number” at the end of the Scroll list.

Tap on “Build Number” repeatedly (7 times). On your third tap you should see message indicating that you only have 4 more taps to go to ‘become a developer’. Keep tapping until you are a developer. (a toast message will tell you so)

Now Developer Option will be included in setting list of yours now. Go to “Develop Options” to check USB debugging > OK. Done.

In combination with this, I had to download Android File Transfer--- But it's okay with the combined tabs of the internal and external SD card:

http://www.android.com/filetransfer/

Yep, so thats the story.. At least now if other people come over with there android's, I can connect them to my computer no problem. Still though am interested to know about this MTP stuff.. [would be good for knowledge within this thread]

Cheers

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] oscarthegrouch:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mohammadag.samsungusbmassstorageenabler

This works if you have root. It only works on the micro SD card though. Airdroid https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sand.airdroid works over Wi-Fi for both storage places but it's slower than USB. Better than nothing I suppose. I don't store anything on the internal ram. I move everything over to the card.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] konichwa:
Haha, nope :P

Glad to know in still helping out around here beyond myself in the process. Hah. It's good to be home.

Yes to you up top, the airdroid method works as well... But i prefer to be directly plugged in with USB.. It could be a helpful tool in the future though.. Thanks!

I guess there is no way around the software part though. The idea behind this thread and question is whether or not this droid can be plug and play wherever I go vs. Needing software to run it. Perhaps airdroid is where it's at.

Hey, hope everyone is having a good long weekend. I have a Bell S4 that refuses to boot any 4.3 ROM. I have tried at least 6.

I had an old TWRP 2.5 flashable zip file and flashed it from Philz, pulled battery, rebooted to TWRP again, flashed 10.2 nightly and Gapps and it worked.

If you are still having the same problem, let me know and I'll upload the file for you for the TWRP flashable zip.

Thanks & good luck!
[HTC Droid DNA] dog13000:
Hello, feeling like a total noob here, I was just going to start up with rooting my DNA to run Cyanogen but I can't get it to boot into recovery mode. I've done it a million times on android phones, but the standard power button and volume down button combo doesn't do anything and the phone just boots normally... does anybody know what I am doing wrong?

I obviously already tried the volume up button and power button as well...

Thank you in advance.
[HTC Droid DNA] _phoey:
You need to hold both volume buttons and power to boot into hboot. from there, use the volume keys to navigate to the "recovery" option, and use power to select it. Then it will boot into ClockworkMod or TWRP, whichever you have installed.
[HTC Droid DNA] RLGL:
Make sure fastboot is disabled, (settings menu )
[HTC Droid DNA] ChristianJay:
Actually it is volume down and power into Hboot. Both volume buttons and power gets you into safe mode.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NihangSingh:
Hi Everyone

Im panicking at the moment that my phone might be bricked.

Ive been running Resurrection Remix 4.0.6 for a while now and today the new 4.0.7 was releasted. So I downloaded it and the GAPPS onto my external card like usual. I flashed the ROM fine but then realized that I hadn't printscreended the way id configured my 5 screen with all my apps. I couldn't remember how I did it so I decided to restore my nandroid backup, printscreen my screens, and then put the new ROM back on again and then configure my screens to the way I like it. But after restoring my nandroid backup, TWRP said that there was no OS installed. I then tried to restore again but it failed instantly. TWRP then said the phone doesnt seem to be rooted. do you want to install Supersu to root it? I clicked yes and then the phone turned off. I turned the phone back on and a screen came up saying do you want to install a custom ROM? I clicked yes

and now its on this black screen with a green android man on it with a caption underneath saying 'downloading'. It says in small red print at the top that it is in 'odin mode'?

But I have no idea what its downloading and from where? As surely if theres no OS then I havent put my wifi password in or anything.

Its taking ages so I dont even know for sure if its doing anything. Im pretty certain its stuck. But if I do a battery pull my phone will be bricked.

Can anyone please help me solve this issue? I would be extremely grateful.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] retrorom:
You are in "download mode" which is used for flashing with ODIN. Turn off the phone and restart it by holding power button, middle button and volume up. then try reflashing your rom in recovery.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NihangSingh:
Thanks a bunch. That was a huge scare! Im now reflashing my ROM in recovery and it seems to be going well.

Much appreciated! :D
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] retrorom:
You are welcome, hope it goes well :)

Just a FYI: rebooting with the combination of power button, middle button and volume down goes into "download mode" where you can use the program called "odin" to flash your phone. Just so you know... google ODIN for more info if you are interested. It's usually used to properly flash a newer version of android, say when you want to upgrade from Ice cream Sandwich to Jelly Bean... etc

If it helped, just hit the thanks button :)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NihangSingh:
Yes, I have used ODIN previously on my phone. I should have known the difference between getting into download mode and recovery mode, stupid mistake. Thanks for clearing it up for me. Ive now flashed the new ROM I was trying to put on in the first place and everything is working great. Yep, Ill click the thanks button :)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK0079:
And now delete this thread ! The thread title is extremely stupid.

It was your lack of knowledge which almost ruined your phone, not TWRP.

I can't believe that you even managed to flash anything onto your phone. Do you even know what TWRP is ? No need to answer...

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] afremont:
Hello all,

I've been tinkering with building a complete ROM image as well as compiling the kernel. So far I've gotten thru the build process and compiling with only minimal pain. I have a question about the commit numbers and repo source trees.

I used repo to pull down the JSS15Q stuff (android-4.3_r2.2), but thru ignorance I used the commit number of JSS15J. It seemed to build everything ok and it runs, but I'm worried that I really need to repo an earlier version in order to actually build the J version correctly. As you can see by the attached image link, my kernel shows the commit number for JSS15J hanging off the version number, but the build number shows JSS15Q.

Is this OK?

Should I repo the JSS15J stuff (android-4.3_r2.1) and do it all over again to actually build the right stuff?

What are the consequences of what I have done?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Chady:
Maybe I am helping? :)

Hi Afremont

I have a comment and help request.

Maybe this link " http_://www.turnkeylinux.org/blog/git-fix-commits " will help? Since I am new to this line of experimenting as well, the comments expressed, in the link, may not actually help any :confused:

As mentioned above, I am somewhat new to manipulating android kernel and ROM. I have recompiled the kernel on my Nexus 10 and had the system boot (so... I am a noob but not an absolute noob) I am trying to recompile the 2013 Nexus 7 kernel with the goal of enabling ARM performance counters. The Kernel compile goes off without a hitch, but the system will not boot with the new kernel I created. I am using the same method to compile/flash the kernel that I used when working with the Nexus 10 - however, the N7 system just sits at the Google boot screen.

I have a post that includes my very detailed method of conducting this task:

http_://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2425110

* Also I have tried adding the --base address and that caused a boot loop at the Google boot screen.

Would you mind taking a quick look at the post and see what I am doing different that you?

Out of the box my 2013 Nexus 7 is using

Android version: 4.3

Kernel version: 3.4.0-g6537a16androidbuild@vpbs1.mtv.corp.google.com #1

Build number: JSS15Q

Thanks

Chad
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] afremont:
I followed this example:

http_://source.android.com/source/index.html

I'm a noob at this too, but I did manage to get it running with a kernel I compiled.

Before hand, don't forget to setup your PATH and source build/envsetup.sh. Then run lunch and pick number 6 (flo with debugging). If you only have four choices, then you probably forgot to do the source command first.

The key differences (not that mine is right, or that it even makes any difference) are that I have the msm directory under flo-kernel

{dont forget to export the ARCH, SUBARCH and CROSS_COMPILE variables first before compiling the kernel}

make (compile kernel)

(after the compile, while sitting in msm) copy the zImage file like this:

cp arch/arm/boot/zImage ../out/target/product/flo/kernel

cd ..

make (finish rest of build ROM images and make system.img, boot.img and recovery.img automatically)

Then in the end I went to the directory "out/target/product/flo/" and then did this:

adb reboot bootloader

fastboot -w (this clears and reinits userdata and cache, you don't always have to do this)

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash userdata userdata.img

fastboot flash cache cache.img

fastboot reboot

I don't flash the bootloader.

I rushed through this in a big hurry, be sure to examine the site I posted a link to for all the details.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] afremont:
Anyone? Just like to know if building the kernel this way is the same as if I'd built using the JSS15J (android-4.3_r2.1) repo image without using a commit number. I used repo to download the latest (JSS15Q android-4.3_r2.2) but used the commit number from JSS15J to do the git checkout. I'm thinking I have the JSS15J kernel, but everything else is JSS15Q. Is that correct? :confused:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpyderTracks:
You can flash any rom you like, but might be better to stick with one for your region.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nokiamodeln91:
You will need to do data wipe. Do it while you have Cwm recovery. And then boot into download mode and flash the stock rom. This may save you a factory reset after flashing.
