G2 has serious problems wither with software or Hardware... that battery drain is horrible... using Greenify to hibernate apps.. disabling location, gps, email , widgets, whats the point of Android features.. i am so dissapointed.. i got to live with this thing for years and made a mistake paying the full price..
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiguy99:
Two different batteries. The international version you have has the smaller battery. The US version had the larger battery
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rfarrah:
There is either something seriously wrong with your phone, or you've installed some kind of app or game that is sucking it dry. FWIW, I have nothing disabled, on it constantly, auto-checking for email every 10 minutes, tests all day long, etc (but no games or streaming music at the moment), and could easily get two days on a full charge. I'm on the VZW version, in case that makes a difference to anybody.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiguy99:
Sounds like you may have a defective phone. Return it if you can. If it's too late, I'd backup contacts, factory reset & report back with the results.

Had a problem a week ago with a bad app (with spyware) i downloaded, which caused all types of wake locks and miss use of system resources etc.

Went from 0 battery drain over night to 9-10%!

End up factory resetting and the problem is long gone and the battery usage is back to normal
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fisher421:
i did a factory reset 3 times. with the same results. untill i remove the carrier IQ i get constant gps wakelock draining the battery. i rooted it and remove the carrier iq. Then App start draining the battery.. facebook wakelocks, chrome drain like crazy, imdb eats it up google services eat the battery, tried gsam, BBS,wakelock detector none of them could show whats eating the battery. deep sleep drain was like 6% an hour.. sometime AudioOut_3 AudioOut_2 draining battery..

my old Htc one xl was much better with gps turned on , wifi location o, maps reporting location on and even push gamil and exchange mail. never had deep sleep drain.

those who say they dont have a problem lie.. (with ATT version) cause i am sure they all shutdown google services ,maps locations or greenify them.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] webwude:
From my point of view this is only the case for the South Korea version, not for the European one, I guess...?

GPS Auto Turning On - Solution

I found that GPS automatically turns back on if you turn it completely off. However, if you leave "wifi and network" option on, and just disable GPS, then battery works much better. I could never find a solution to GPS automatically turning on when I turned off "access to my location". That used to drain my battery but now it's doing much better. Although I still see random performance with almost identical daily use. It's sometimes at 80% by the end of the day, and other times at 30% with nearly identical usage patterns. Hopefully the GPS suggestion helps some. Try Leaving "access to my location" on, and manually disable "gps satellites", leaving "wi-fi and mobile network location" on. That helped me a lot.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antawnm26:
this have been covered...CIQ and how to disabe as well....Also, as a consensus the average up time on this phone is way ahead of the iphone(any of them).....lets get some screen shots of these horrible battery life that is being discussed...
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cashmoves:
can you point me to where the above issue with GPS and location settings has been covered? ive had my verizon G2 for a few days. battery was been great. took me over a day to kill the battery for the first time (to auto shutoff). just this morning though, i decided to fully optimize it for battery usage. i turned OFF mobile data, gps, location access, google location settings, sync, 30% screen brightness, etc. and now my battery usage is WORSE. android system and home were still taking up battery (according to GSAM battery app).

edit* also, i am not rooted.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rfarrah:
Why don't you just put it back the way it was? :D
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cashmoves:
haha, well i have! but by reading this thread ive since become aware of all the wakelock issues... i downloaded the GSAM battery app and noticed that with that stuff on Android System and Google Services were causes TONS of wakelocks... so I think that I thought the battery was great just bc i came from a 2.5 year old Motorola RAZR. Im worried now that im suffering from the wakelock issues that are being reported. I'm not rooted, and im not sure how to solve the problem.

with wifi on, sync off, location access off, gps off, google access location off, and screen off and no use, my phone was kept awake for 13.51 minutes of a 14.0 minute reference cycle from the GSAM battery app...7 wake locks and 4 times waking the device. NlpWakeLock for 13.51!!!!

---------- Post added at 04:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:06 PM ----------

ugh, with screen off, wifi off, data off, sync off, gps off, google access location off, and location access off, pretty much everything off, my phone was held awake the ENTIRE 15 minutes i let it sit on my desk... WTF. i CANNOT get rid NlpWakeLock...
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vween:
AT&T has a carrier IQ wake lock.

Go into System->Apps->Running. Find Android System. Go in there and stop iq service. Next, stop the actual Android System process.

After that, your battery life should improve.

Also, you will have to do this again after a reboot.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EniGmA1987:
I liked the name of this thread, so Ill just leave this here:

it was actually on wifi or LTE most of the time, just happened to be in a 3G spot when I took that pic. Idle drain is pretty awesome on this phone so the only way you are getting huge drain when idle is if you have a wakelock.

edit: hey that is petty cool. 13, 12, 11.

so, wrong how to accomplish it.YOu need root and you need to delete it its about 7 files....If not they will continue to run in your method
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cashmoves:
well, for anyone following along, i think it was the wifi at my office that was causing all the wakelocks. on my wifi at home and on LTE, the wake lock problem is gone... android system and google services have both fallen WAY OFF on the list of apps consuming battery in gsam battery app. i have sync on, google location services on but not reporting history or anything, and i have location services off for other apps. before with that setup, if i was on my office wifi i was still having the wakelock problem...

Does there exist a toolkit to root a Tmobile S4 with UVUAMDL? I saw a posting with a multi-step process that seems to offer too many ways for me to mess it up. I was hoping that someone had created a toolkit which would make it a bit more foolproof.

If the flash finished, pull the battery, and boot your phone pressing volume up + home button + power button, it should boot into recovery and automatically flash root for you.

I used the version of Odin that was in the CF-Root file. Perhaps I need to install the drivers.
[General Questions and Answers] Feldercarb.Frac:
Hello all,

I am looking for a way to run my android as a wireless router (not as an access point or a tether).

I am putting together a distributed app with components running on multiple devices. It works fine when I have the Wi-Fi enabled on my android and I have a wi-fi router to connect to, but I need to run this where I won't necessarily have the wi-fi router available.

Basically, I want to run a private network using my android as both my core app, and as a wifi-router/dhcp server, without allowing devices that connect to my android to have access to the internet through my device.

I've seen many apps and threads that all cover how to use the built-in access point, or how to configure the device as a hotspot, but these all discuss tethering and how to get past the limits (or snooping) of your provider and not how to set up a private network.

Is there a way, or an existing app that will allow me to set up a private network as I describe? If not, is there something I can do within my server code to enable the Access Point and disable Tethering at the same time?

Thanks in Advance

F.F.

Hey check out this video, this guy does a benchmark right on the video and we see his results. They are significantly higher than other benchmarks floating around on the net regarding the z1... Here is the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-IJ14NV22R8

and here is the link to a phone arena bench mark.. you can see the benchmarks at the bottom of that page. http://www.phonearena.com/news/Firs...-AnTuTu-and-Vellamo-benchmark-results_id47177

The video benchmarks clock in at 34k while phone arena's results are at 17k.. by far the lowest of the bunch that sport the new s800. There are quite a few other websites claiming the z1 performs poorly compared to its s800 brethren. Benchmarks do not make or break a phone, i'm just curious about the discrepancies. Does anyone here happen to have a unit on hand yet? Please post benchmarks here if you have the phone.

For those that want to tether but don't want to pay your carrier for it...

Root is required.

1) Download your favorite SQL editor. I use SQLite Editor.

2) Open and grant root access.

3) Scroll down and find Settings Storage

4) Choose settings.db (duh)

5) Go down to line 65 and change the value for entitlement check from 1 to 0.

6) Reboot.

7) Profit.

Historically this has stuck through updates as the databases don't change when you update.

Thank you jcase for root!
[Droid Ultra General] CrazyRussianXDA:
I wonder if the changes to settings will survive reboot because system is not writeable atm
[Droid Ultra General] @work:
in what folder does settings storage live? I cant seem to find it.

It does persist through reboot. The change actually won't work until after reboot.

No need to buy SQLite Editor

For those who don't want to pay for the SQLite Editor app, you can still gain wifi tethering/hotspot with this free alternative.

1. Download the free apps aShell and aSQLiteManager from Play Store.

2. Launch aShell, check the "Root" box, then hit "File Explorer" button.

3. Browse to /data/data/com.motorola.android.providers.settings/databases, and open up settings.db with aSQLiteManager.

4. Now choose the "settings" table, hit "Data" button.

5. "PgDn" until you see "65. entitlement_check" and change that value from 1 to 0.

You're done! Restart and wifi tethering/hotspot will work now.

Your 4G is likely weak and with the Wifi getting hammered it's unable to maintain the connection. Pretty common in low signal areas.

You're sure you're boring into "recovery" WP off? Getting the silent boot and all?

Could try holo reboot from play store super easy way to manage your booting
[Droid Ultra General] Kickbut101:
Safestrap app and PwnMyMoto app are asking if I want to boot into WP bypass mode before, and when I hit the button to reboot upon loading up the app again it changes the app to claim I'm in WP bypass mode. And "silent boot" as in no boot animation sound? yes, that is correct, I actually can't remember the last time my phone made that sound.

Also, I do have xblast on my phone and it enabled the advanced power menu so I have all the different reboot mode options.
[Droid Ultra General] Caseyk621:
Hmm... not sure... Was just going through the easiest stuff....

My phone ALWAYS boots with boot animation sound when WP is on...and ALWAYS boots silently with no boot animation sound when WP is off.
