[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bhavpreet:
the funny thing is i dont have data, since i get wifi wherever i am. i also think its a radio problem though, my gsm signal never seems to be full, and people constantly tell me on the phone that they cant hear me. so what im doing (right now) is flashing a ge rom, specifically sinless rom, then im going to flash the new ge radio, 4A.18, and see how that plays out, prolly going to flash a 4.3 kernel aswell so i can uc to 162mhz or whatever the value is.

i seriously believe its the radio+lack of kernel on 4.3 sense roms that are causing this problem for me. so once this is all done ill test it for the rest of the day and see how it goes. thanks so much for your help
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BenPope:
If you don't use any apps, of course system uses the most.

You need to check for wakelocks. If you have unexpected battery drain, it's likely that the phone is not sleeping properly, i.e., being kept awake. Betterbatterystats, gsam, wakelock detector etc.

What was the change in signal attenuation, or are you just saying the the display bars are different?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bhavpreet:
i use apps, just nothing new compared to when i was on 4.2.2.

and no wakelocks according to gsam, i lost 20% overnight (7 hours)

i dont get what it is. i upgraded the radio to 4.19 now, but for the signal issues, it included lower bars, bad audio in calls, and random loss of wifi.

i removed basically every app, besides some essentials like facebook, whatsapp, and a few others.

i tried switching to an ge rom, but i just cant stay on it for too long, vanilla android is so plain compared to sense.

so the last thing i can think of, is a rom known for its battery life. not asking for a comparison, just your opinion in which rom gives the best battery on 4.3. any suggestions?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] metal571:
Charge your phone up all the way, put it in airplane mode, and unplug it for an hour then don't touch it. Then post your battery percentage. If it isn't still 100 or 99 then you have a more severe problem that actually relates to the battery itself.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bhavpreet:
good idea, testing it now, will report back in an hour.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bhavpreet:
been an hour and 5 minutes, still 100%.

so im guessing it has something to do with the radio?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] metal571:
Show us a graph of your signal strength from GSAM, and show us a screenshot with how many bars you have. At least you know now that the battery is definitely not shot. It is probably mobile data related...hmm did you ever try letting the phone sit with mobile data disabled as well? It should drain almost as minimally as airplane mode.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bhavpreet:
funny thing is, i dont have data..long story.

i just use wifi as its always available basically everywhere i am.

and thanks for all your help so far, helped me eliminate one possible problem
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] metal571:
So wait, your signal is really good but your phone drains like crazy, and while you're on WiFi? Okay, what wifi router are you using and is it G or N and is it dual band?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bhavpreet:
its absurd i know..its already down to 93% with 9 minutes screen on..

and its a dual band router, im normally connected to the 2.4ghz band, and its with wireless ac, which the one supports. Which is weird cause i thought ac improved battery life..

edit: im an idiot, wireless ac only works on 5ghz bands, but that still doesnt explain the drain on wireless n..as my previous router was also wireless n
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] metal571:
Have you tried 5 ghz N by forcing the router or your phone to operate only at N speed? I use a TP-Link dual band N router and I remember seeing s drain of about 4 percent overnight for 8 hours of full idle with full sync.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bhavpreet:
I have tried with both 2.4ghz n and 5.2ghz ac, same problem persists

View attachment 2242515

Awake is 3x screen on, I don't think that's normal, somethings keeping the phone awake much longer
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bhavpreet:
so ive done a bunch of other tests, and i can confirm its wifi thats causing this massive drain, not wakelocks, not roms, or anything else.

when the phone is left with wifi on, but not being connected to any network, battery drain is minimal overnight.

its the same on both 2.4ghz and 5ghz bands, so it this a router problem? if so, do you know any tips that could fix it?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iElvis:
Do you have "Best wifi performance" checked? That seems to eat battery.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bhavpreet:
i have no option for best wifi performance, just "wifi optimization". i found the problem, it has something to do with my new router and its bad compatibility with android devices. the phone seems to be awake 2x the screen on time and the main culprit is "wlan_rx_wake" wakelock

[Moto X Q&A] thead73:
im on my second htc one. reception is horrible, it wont stay on 4g, and barely has any signal on 3g. internet doesnt work most times i need it. are the moto phones better at receiving signal. im thinking of a moto x or a maxx. my time is almost up to exchange phone;)
[Moto X Q&A] _MetalHead_:
I had the One, and while I didn't have any issues with reception per se, I can tell you that the Moto X is hands down the most bulletproof phone I've owned in the reception department.
[Moto X Q&A] plasticmoz:
There's no real contest between HTC & Motorola radios (I have both) -- Motorola wins every time.
[Moto X Q&A] bugsy:
Agreed, I have both and the X beats it easily.
[Moto X Q&A] eallan:
My Moto X loses LTE a lot more than my GPe One.
[Moto X Q&A] adsam3927:
I have had every Android phone to date and can safely say this Moto X and other Motorola phones have always had the best reception / RF quality
[Moto X Q&A] thead73:
thanks guys, i made the switch from htc one to moto maxx. and this phone is great. it has not left 4g since i got it 2 days ago. simply awesome and the huge battery is a bonus
[Moto X Q&A] SubliminalME:
Verizon one is terrible.. I have a network extender and it had a heck of a time changing between the terrible signal in my area and the extender. X is great... Best signal I've had yet.
[Moto X Q&A] scorpion667:
My Moto X is the only phone that gets LTE where I work. Better reception then S3, N4. But best reception I've ever had was on my s2 I9100 (non LTE). That's the only phone that ever got signal on the subway in Toronto. I've had full phone conversations on the subway.
[Moto X Q&A] tiguy99:
I had the One X & Atrix HD @ the same time. My Atrix HD always got the best reception whereas the One X struggle to pull the signal. I imagine its the same if not better with the Moto X.
[Moto X Q&A] lmacmil:
We were out of town recently. My wife's Moto X had a signal strength of 23 ASUs. My HTC One X was 5 and I had only 4G whereas she had LTE.
[Moto X Q&A] tnp9008:
I had a Nexus 4 before getting my Moto X(XT1053) and the reception is noticeably better and the internet is more reliable when it's on LTE vs HSPA+. I'm on AT&T's GoPhone plan with my unlocked Moto X., and I live in an area with marginal coverage for most carriers. Anyway my Moto X and my Mom's Moto G LTE get great signal most of the time; I can't comment on the HTC One as I don't know of anyone who has one.

I find SwiftKey being better than the default keyboard, you might want to try that out :) it has a nice spellchecker, it suggest you words by analyzing all of your SMS (and e-mail if you want to)
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigManz:
Hello All,

I tried the to root my new Galaxy Tab 3 and ended up stuck at the download screen. Odin (crashed) didn't like the file posted...

Anyways loaded the original from the site but now I'm missing my 5Ghz band and on an unsupported version of the OS

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2421594&page=6

I wanted to post on that forum but I couldn't :( Anyways I'm back on some other OS for another country by the looks of things and would love a copy of the Canadian firmware to load. Any help is much appreciated...
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] confyzone:
I was stuck at the download screen as well, I just let the battery drain, tablet rebooted fine. try to find the Software via sammobile
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigManz:
Looks like my reply didn't go thru. There isn't a Canadian version of the firmware out there.... its alright I was having other issues with the tablet so it had to be replaced. (home button was getting stuck)... did a quick exchange...

Happy to hear letting the battery drained worked though... just wondering were you able to find a working root image? I wish there was just a patch.. I really need to modify the resolv.conf on this stupid tablet
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] confyzone:
We do have root :)
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigManz:
Well it looks like someone has a fix :) I've been dying to modify the resolv.conf and a few other files so that this tablet can access my intranet at home. (Have my own domain and several Linux servers) Anyways... I'd like to remain with the same kernel if possible and apply this hack/fix. I found the file but no instructions on how to install it. Just wondering if there is a how to? Sorry new to the Android world...

The kernel modules included in the restored image didn't support my wifi hardware, hence the reason why I was missing the 5Ghz band. I'd just like it rooted for now... I can always recompile later :)

Thanks in advance!

p.s. shame I can't reply to the main thread..
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigManz:
I did find these instructions online. I'm assuming recovery mode is power and the volume up button.. Does this method work on our tablets?

<snip>

1. copy to root of sdcard

2. reboot into recovery

3. scroll to your second option--"wipe data:factory reset" and press the back key (no data will be wiped but the update will be installed and you will be rooted)

4. reboot device and install superuser or equivalent

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] manisa236:
I had a desire with S-OFF, CM7r2 hboot and custom JB ROM working fine for months. Suddenly it doesnt boot anymore.

When powered on, it starts with a vibrate as usual and after few seconds vibrates 6-7 times (that's new!) and stucks there with boot logo.

I can boot into hboot and fastboot but no recovery. When boot into recovery the above symptoms happen. 6-7 vibrates and nothing.

Flushed different recoveries via fastboot but the same symptoms stay. Even flashed Stock Hboot and used RUU utility to load a stock WWE rom successully. But at the end of the RUU it still didnt boot (stuck after same 6-7 vibrations). Tried even keeping the phone in freezer for overheating with no success.

Any ideas? Why would it die suddenly like that? Motherboard problems?

Thanks.

As far as photos go from this phone, they're very nice, but sadly, the purple hue is still highly visible in both shots (especially in the area of your cats ears)

Sadly, it's one of the biggest problems this camera has. The problem is more evident in scenes with a lot of white objects or backgrounds.

[Moto X General] linuxgator:
A trick that you can try to prevent some of the redness or out of balance colors (not the purple hue) is to cover the light sensor on the front off the phone with your finger and then find something white to aim at and rebalance the shot before taking the picture. The sensor is to the left of the earpiece. It seems to help a lot when taking pictures in rooms lit by yellower CFLs.
[Moto X General] purakushi:
Regarding all of the complaints of the Moto X's camera, are (some or all of) these things fixable by software/firmware updates or is it in the hardware? Anyone know? Details would be nice. Thanks.
[Moto X General] eallan:
I think this is a pretty bad attitude. There are decent cameras in phones that cost just as much or less. There's no reason to make excuses, the camera can be bad, but don't write it off like it's not important or they couldn't include a decent sensor.

I'm about to sell on my nexus S and was playing around with cm 10.1. It was good but lacked the cool features of slimbean, especially the option for softkeys. Decided to flash it and now I really, really like the rom.

Now before I sell it on, which I am now delaying a bit thanks to the wicked features of the ROM (!), what kernels do you recommend for decent performance and best battery life whilst using slim bean build 8? I have read good things bout marmite kernel so far but I suppose there are kernels out there with better battery life. Thanks.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dark'em:
Marmite the non-CM version case Slim bean is based on AOSP not CM (Slim vas based on CM with jellyBean 4.1), Devil kernel is CM based so it will work only with Slim based on JB 4.1, if you want Slim 4.2.2 oe 4.3 then Marmite

Get into software upgrade mode. Turn the phone off. Plug the phone into your computer, and hold volume up and down (might be another combination like volume up and home. Keep trying.)

If the bootloader is unlocked, it should say Bootloader unlocked on the top left of the screen. If not, it will say nothing.

No, that does not work (well on some roms, with the proper u-boot it will). The best way to check is putting phone in s/w upgrade mode. If it's unlocked (and on a V20F, V20H or a unlockable jellybean U-boot) it will say Unlocked Bootloader.

Hey,

I need some help, I want to unlock my AT&T HTC One. I already have the unlock code with me.

But Right now I am on a custom ROM, GPE 4.3. I was inquisitive of two things:

1. If I can unlock my phone from the network while being on Custom ROM?

2. Can I unlock it using an international SIM, which is not working since the roaming is disabled.

To add to the first point, if I can how do I do it? And If I cannot think, I know the method to come to stock. But then again, after I come back to stock, how do I unlock the boot loader again and root the device?

I simply just flashed ViperOne rom and tried the unlock it and it worked. I think you can only unlock with a sense rom but I am no developer so I wouldn't know for sure.

All you have to do is put the other SIM card with the sense rom and the option to unlock with an unlock code should come up and work.
