Get the Samsung, better device over all.

The only reason getting the D3 is if you're already addicted to a hardware keyboard.
[Motorola Droid 3] every1nosme:
Personally I find the d3 vastly superior to the s2 hardware wise but if you want full support on the software side and you aren't stuck on the physical qwerty like many of us are then you will probably be happier with the s2. For me I'd like jb support or ics on my d3 but since I can live with gb and really need the keyboard I will stick with my d3 till its dead in the water.
[Motorola Droid 3] MrObvious:
The S2 can go to JB and has faster radios if you buy the T-Mobile version.
[Motorola Droid 3] FrankieDedo:
Just go with the Droid 4 or Photon Q, or wait, because it looks like that some "Droid5-ish" phone pictures has leaked from motorola... just look for those on the internet! ;)
[Motorola Droid 3] QuesarVII:
Droid 3 are really cheap

One nice benefit of the d3 is how cheap they are - I just got one for $50 shipped on Ebay.
[Motorola Droid 3] deviousmrtaco:
I really liked my Droid 3 great piece of hardware, but plagued by terrible software from motorola and it really should have had a gig of ram in it. I still mess around with mine and I really miss the keyboard now that I have my s4 I still recommend it if you need a keyboard phone with good build quality

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Inrego:
Today, my phone suddenly started showing the S View screen whenever I try to use the phone. I do not use an S View cover, and I am unable to use the phone when it does this.

I'm assuming the sensor it uses for the S View cover is broken? Once in a while after trying a lot, I am able to get the lock screen and use the phone for a little while until it thinks there's an S View cover again. I'm thinking if I could just disable this feature it would be all good.

My phone is rooted, and I do have an app to freeze stock apps if that is necessary. Any help to resolve this problem is appreciated!

P.S. I do have an S View cover that I am not using. I tried to use it to see if it would help the problem without any results.

I actually just uninstalled Xposed and the problem went away.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MohammadAG:
Heh, Xposed by itself can't create such an issue. The sensor is handled by the kernel which can't me modified by Xposed. Could be a coincidence though.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MohammadAG:
You should, I've had them and a bunch of other modules and I've never had any issues. Besides, my music controls module is the only one that taps into S-View.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Inrego:
It started happening again, so I've installed your module. Does it require any setup except for just enabling it in xposed?

EDIT: After a reboot, only about the top 20% of the screen responds to touch input :/ How do I disable the mod without being able to use the screen? An adb command?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Inrego:
I updated the phone with Kies. That removed the root access so that xposed didn't work anymore. Then I could wait until the screen would work again to make backup of what I needed and then I installed CyanogenMod.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] POLO_i780:
Has anyone found a better way to disable the S View Cover or disable the Magnet sensor altogether?

I sent my GS4 in when it started doing this, they replaced the main board but the issue is back again less than a week after repair -_-
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Inrego:
Sorry, didn't find anything. I've ended being quite happy with Cyanogenmod on my device.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] POLO_i780:
Oh okay, dam. :(

Thanks for the quick response though mate :) think I'll send the phone back.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] POLO_i780:
Updated to 4.3 a while ago and today decided to Root and try this again, this time it has worked and worked well, I even brought a magnet close to my S4 and it did not react at all with the S View screen, thank you so much. I was beginning to lose my mind with it always flashing the S View display while typing.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Inrego:
Just updated my device to kitkat, and boom: S-view screen again. I've seen dozens of people on these forums with the same problem, but still no solution :/ I must be possible to just either disable the sensor or disable the software that handles it..
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pehpe:
I don't know why, but on every reboot of my device, the Samsung device won't start into the S-View mode.

Today i've got my Spigen Armor View case and tested it. Works pretty well! But to get the S-View mode back, i've to put my phone out of the cover and back again.

Maybe some of my mods is blocking this S-View-Crap.

[LG Optimus 4X HD] forgottnxd:
Hello all :)

i´ve got my 4x Hd since one month now, everything is okay but the battery live is terrible. In some reviews i read that the phone should get 6 hours of screen on time and a lot of users here say that they reach 2 days with this phone but the maximum i reached with my phone was 20 hours with 2 hours screen on time. And no, i dont play ANY games on my 4x and the screen is nearly on minimum brightness. I have tried EVERY Rom in this forum (rom folder contains 80gig, lol) but it is very hard to manage for me that the battery lasts a day. Better Battery stats says that Baseband wakelock and wifi wakelock drains the battery at most (even on v10h and v20a,I thought that these wakelocks are custom Rom related...?). Also ive tried a lot of battery saving tweaks like greenify for facebook, trickster mod to reduce voltages and underclock to 1ghz, but nothing helps much. I ordered a second battery too (polarcell) and it gives a light improvement, but coming over an day ist quite impossible...

I would be gratefull if someone can suggest me a good setup (Rom + Kernel + Apps) or some tipps to save battery...

Sorry for my "bad" english....:0
[LG Optimus 4X HD] SimonTS:
Search, read, don't ask questions that have been asked before...
[LG Optimus 4X HD] postacik:
According to what he has written, he seems to have searched and practiced a lot.

Please just ignore the question if you do not want to answer.

It is nearly impossible to filter good knowledge from a thread which has been started months ago so sometimes it is good to make a new start and share the most useful.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Flying_Bear:
6 hours is overkill of onscreen time. 2 hours is what you should get with heavy use, 3 hours with moderate, 4h and up with video watching.

install custom rom and kernel, keep wifi and data off while phone is idle and you'll get miniscule discharge while the phone is not in use. if you need to sync messages or mails, use dsbattery saver, and let it turn on wifi/data once per hour for 2 minutes and force sync.

keeping data and wifi off will conserve a lot of battery.

baseband_xmm is weird wakelock. try werewolf kernel, as it seems he completely fixed it from overeating the battery. as for wifi lock, it seems that it's rom-related, and that stock has best stats with wifi on, but a bypass of that issue, is ofc, to use wifi only when you need it.

as for underclocking & changing governors, i didnt find that they increased battery life much (for me). only advice is to experiment, and from personal experience see what's the best you can pull off. (f.e., carbon 4.2.2 i could pump 4+ hours of onscreen time with medium use, but i've tested other (better) roms, with more functions, that i simply dont want to go back to it :D)
[LG Optimus 4X HD] SimonTS:
If that is true then the OP should have been able to formulate his own opinion as to which ROM and Kernel works best for him. The simple fact is that if he's only had the phone a month and has tried every ROM then he has only run each one for about one day - that is not enough time to form any kind of opinion on how a ROM actually performs. By far the best thing is to choose 3 or 4 ROMs that have the features you want and try each one for a week, take copies of the Bettery Battery stats and review after doing those tests.

Don't tell me what I can and can't do. This forum is a complete mess because we constantly get the same questions asked over and over again.

Threads started months ago? Really? Try putting the word 'battery' into the forum search engine and see just how many hits there are - even one started 3 days ago. This thread is no different to a 'Best ROM' thread - you will get 10 people replying and 11 different opinions as to what is best.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] postacik:
I completely agree about the mess you describe but the mess will not stop by saying "search, read etc.". It's human nature, we're lazy.

Let those who want to answer, answer. Dumb and repetetive questions will be ignored anyway.

I'm sorry if I was being unpolite by my words, but that's definitely not what I intended so please let's not create more mess.

---------- Post added at 02:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:59 PM ----------

If everybody could understand this fact, there would be less questions on the forum.

No custom ROM or kernel can create miracles when the power consumption of the screen is the unchanging variable in the equation and you have to turn the screen on to use the phone.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] forgottnxd:
Lol, believe me, i know how to use xda and google and thsi is not my first time i´m on xda

Thank you, actually i´m using a modded stock rom (p880-eur-20b-f1.zip) and because of wifi and data issues i moved to the werewolve kernel v8 because it promised to get rid of the wakelocks but everything stays the same...Disabling wifi is annoying but possible for me, but disabling data is no option because i need whatsapp....and i dont understand how a lot of people here say they have a good battery life without disabling anything... :l Carbon Rom had alot of other bugs for me (needed 10 seconds to show the lockscreen), 4.3 version was even worse for me :l

The baseband, wifi and most of time nfc wakelock won´t go away, even if i use a rom 5 days, so where is your problem?!

Edit:

Battery had 31%, then i listened to music (turned wifi and mobile data off) and the battery was dead after 35 minutes, this can´t be normal, can it?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] GalaxyVolvoZ:
Wtf ??? When you listening to music phone runs 51mhz. I can listening about 2 days music. I think you have very many wakelocks :o I listen to music after 1h 2% was drained.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Flying_Bear:
yeah, that's not normal. even with gaming it should last more than 30 minutes. my best advice is to dig deeper into the issue, see what's really wasting the battery. not many tips i can give, since my worst drainers were wakelocks, not apps using abnormal amount of battery while phone is active :(

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] hartunnoo:
how to make storage big space? although installed in SD memory, storage memory always low.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] Xilicon:
This could be a result of the number of programs you have running in the background. Check your Running Programs and see if you have lots of unnecessary programs using up your memory.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] hartunnoo:
Still happened

the problem is when ever I installed program, I never installed to phone memory. I only installed into my SD Card.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] mcwarre:
Re: Still happened

It doesn't matter where you are installing them; if you have them running in the background they still need memory
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] Xilicon:
Just check your running programs. On a desktop PC when you minimize a program they go into your taskbar, but in Pocket PC they just hide themselves in the background. Its a common misconception that the "x" in the upper right hand corner of the screen closes the program; all it does it minimizes it. Or atleast most of them, some programs a actually very well designed and actually "close". At any case, use the "running programs" utility that came standard with your Magician to see how many programs you have running - it's actually quite amazing what you'll find.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] obarnes:
I have a similar problem but mine starts at 20mb free after soft reset but after each sync (disconnect and reconnect) it drops by about 6mb until it reaches 7 or 8mb and stays there until I soft reset again?

I am not aware of any invoked programs that eat up memory when I sync and I have very little data in my sync files folder?

Suggestions welcome (except hard reset!!).

Thanks,

OB.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] hartunnoo:
obarnes, That true. why after soft reset it used more memory. supposed to be free more memory. :)
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] Xilicon:
Activesync eats up memory everytime you hook it up. That memory does not get freed up. Approx 3MB gets blocked away for every sync you do - so if you start of with 20 and you sync up 3 or 4 times then you're memory will slowly start to dissapear. This is a common occurence, the only thing I could suggest is to soft-reset 2-3 times a day. Additionally there are programs that can eliminate tiny chunks of memory being used up by duplicate processes that occur when you soft-reset your machine, they don't really effect your device; but every byte helps. The program is by Scarybear and it's called notifyclear (or something like that). I've recently did a maintenance on my device and managed to clear up almost 10MB just by moving unnecessary files and clearing up the registry and redundant junk from the machine. Hope this helps.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] ujj75:
Obarnes,

The "memory leak" could be due to a program you have installed also. I used to face the problem because of Battery Pack Pro v.2 and havent faced a "memory leak" since I uninstalled it.

Can you look at this i think it has something to do with the nav bar mods of all 4.2.2!

36dpi and below = with flicker bug

-XZ unlocked bootloader
