[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dawheat:
Not necessarily. Unlike LCD, there is no increased power requirement when increasing screen resolution (all things being equal) on AMOLED screens. The slightly larger screen will use more power, though Pentile does use less power than RGB so it might be a draw.

The S800 SOC under full load will likely draw more power, though it will finish most tasks faster and has a ton of other power saving features built in.

IMO under normal to light use, the N3 will have a moderate increase in battery life over the N2. However under heavy and constant draw (running a 3D intensive game the entire time), I do think it'll die faster, though it'll perform substantially better the entire time.

[G2 Accessories] greentaloy:
G2 is of an impact creation on design yet if the G2 support the wireless charging, should we input a coil inside or could also have a charging case like it does as Galaxy S4 ?
[G2 Accessories] JTNiggle:
WHAT?

Okay, so I'm not exactly sure what your asking. Are you thinking about a case with wireless charging built it, or a replacement back with wireless charging like the GS4? A few years ago, there were a few companies making cases with wireless charging for a few popular phones, but since the rise of the Qi standard, they have basically disappeared. Since the G2's back is not so easily removable, I doubt there will be a replacement version with wireless charging built in for the non-Verizon versions.

The Verizon version has wireless charging built in, so maybe you are wondering if it will work through a case? I have the HTC DNA currently, with an Otterbox Commuter case the wireless charging works just fine. So, I would imagine that the G2 should have the same result.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] HKSpeed:
I recently got a N4 and immediately looked for a UAG or Speck Candyshell case for it. Unfortunately for me neither case is available for the N4. I was close to getting a Diztronic TPU case, then I saw someone with the Body Glove Nova case. I really like 1-piece hybrid (tpu + hard plastic) style cases like the Candyshell and UAG, so I was super excited when I discovered this case. These cases protect the edges of the phone with TPU and hard plastic (all 4 edges on the Candyshell, 2 sides edges on the UAG). It's not as good looking as the Candyshell and UAG, but it meets my needs just fine. Its available in: white/grey, white/pink, and black/grey. I got a refurbished one (looks brand new, but no packaging) from Amazon for $1.99 + $4.49 shipping. T-Mobile sells it for $35.

I had a Belkin 1-piece hybrid on my old S3 (in addition to a Candyshell)

[Nexus 4 Accessories] HKSpeed:
each phone has pros and cons. I'll stick with the G4 mainly because of the screen (larger and higher resolution/pixel density). I'm going to give the N4 to my wife to replace her S3.

[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigfdaddy2:
I personally hate the black and white charging animation we have when phone is off... So here is the charging animations from the g2 in all their glorious color :)...

https://docs.google.com/folder/d/0B1DGsUzId7AHU2h6WkkxNVVqVm8/edit
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Morningstar:
Maybe I'm missing something obvious here, but how would we go about changing our charging animation to this one? For one, the G2's animation is made up of far more .png's than ours, and the naming scheme is different.

I've spent several hours trying to change it before with no luck. On our device the .png files that make up the screen-off charging animation are in /res/images/charger. I've tried simply replacing them with my own images and setting permissions, and that doesn't work. The modified files persist in the folder, but the animation itself never changes. I've even decompiled boot.img, inserted modified .png's, recompiled, and reflashed, and still no luck. Our phone is pulling the images from somewhere that, at least to me, remains unaccessible. My guess is the bootloader...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Jishnu Sur™:
Friend.. decompile settings.apk> res>drawable xxdpi. You will find the required.. If i had this phone, i really would have done wonders..:P
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Morningstar:
Care to elaborate? I'm looking at my decompiled Settings.apk right now, and res/drawable/xhdpi only contains 7 icons for the settings menu (blacklist, privacy guard .png's). Where inside Settings.apk would there be anything relating to the screen-off charging animation, and why? Settings.apk's are included with ROMs & vary greatly. The charging animation is built into the phone itself, not the ROM.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Jishnu Sur™:
Just search for this folder..

drawable-xxhdpi
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigfdaddy2:
On stock ROM I replaced the system/vendor/charging animation folder
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Morningstar:
I have no problem locating that folder, but I dont see how anything in that folder (or anywhere else within Settings.apk) relates to the charging animation? Here are the contents of Settings.apk>res>drawable-xhdpi (with the Linaro CM10.2 ROM; contents will vary by ROM) :
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Jishnu Sur™:
Mate, which ROM again?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Morningstar:
That's interesting. When you did that, it actually changed the black & white charging animation? I haven't been on stock in a long time, but on CM10.2 all I have in system/vendor are 3 folders: /etc, /firmware, & /lib, & none of them contain anything related to the charging animation.

The only places I've been able to locate the .png files that make up the charging animation are in /res/images/charger & the same path in the extracted ramdisk. I've tried changing those, & the changes persist in that modified .png's can be seen with a file explorer, but the animation always remains the same black & white.

Here's a screenshot of what I'm talking about. I just made 2 of the icons red as an easy way to tell if the animation changed. I can reboot over & over and the modified red icons don't get overwritten, but if I turn the phone off & plug it in, the charging animation still shows the original black & white icons, not the red ones... Hope that makes sense lol.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Jishnu Sur™:
I see! Mate, I dont have this Device. I was just helping coz i thought i know where these png's are. Give me sometime, I'll let you know :)

I'm from India and Its 1:00 AM here.. SO i better sleep hehe :D

GN & I'l PM you soon..
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigfdaddy2:
I am also trying to find out where they r in cm I am gonna go ask spleef ...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Morningstar:
Please correct me if I'm wrong, but since 2 of the 'frames' of the animation in my example are red in the file system, but the original, white corresponding 'frames' are what shows when the animation 'plays', wouldn't that mean that the system is calling those frames from some other location?

I'm no dev or programmer by any means, & I'm not trying to argue with anybody; just trying to learn. :)

I'm still of the impression that the animation (in my case, at least) is being called from within /dev/block/mmcblk0p3.

Edit: By the way, thanks to both of you!
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigfdaddy2:
Yea I replaced the file and it still does the bw animations .... guess it not that simple as I thought lol...guess I gotta go digging here goes nothing lol....
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigfdaddy2:
Nm already stated
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigfdaddy2:
Would it be in system ui since the charging animation is there ?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Morningstar:
Negative. I just went through all the image files in SystemUI.apk>res just to double check, & those are just for one of the status bar charging animations.

They're not going to be part of any apk, and they're not going to be in any folder that the ROM creates. Reason being, you can wipe/format everything, and the system still calls the same animation from somewhere, even with no ROM installed.

I still think they're going to be part of either /dev/block/mmcblk0p3 or /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 (sbl2 & aboot). I've extracted both down to zip, img, tz, and bin files & tried every possible way I can think of to unpack them, but no luck. If you dump aboot to binary & poke through it with a hex editor, there are a few garbled strings containing the file names (battery_1, battery_2, etc), which further leads me to believe they're packed into the bootloader or somewhere similarly inaccessible.

Unpacking/extracting/decompiling (whatever you call it lol) the bootloader would be nice regardless, because then we could change the LG splash & the black fastboot splash (Google splash & picture of the Android if you've flashed the TeenyBin). Hell, even if we could modify the TeenyBin file. I've spent a lot of trying trying various things & researching it though, & if it's possible (which I still haven't found definitive proof it is), it's beyond my capabilities.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigfdaddy2:
This is what I found for the optimus 3d so I'm guessing Prob same for us ....

In the RAMdisk

into the Boot.img

descompile boot.img ,

and open the directory : boot.img-ramdisk/res/images/charger

battery_0.png

battery_1.png

battery_2.png

battery_3.png

battery_4.png

etc...

I'm not able to decompile ATM .... I'm doing everything from phone ....
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Morningstar:
Unfortunately, no. I've already decompiled the boot.img, changed the charging .png's in the ram disk, recompiled, and flashed 2 or 3 times. Any changes made will persist in the file system, but the animation, when 'playing', doesn't reflect those changes. The same as if you were to modify the .png's directly on the device (same folder, ie. [device]/res/images/charger).

I haven't tried it yet, but I'm fairly certain we could just delete that folder all together without issue, since it's clearly pulling those images from somewhere else.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigfdaddy2:
Do u know what this file is named charger ? I deleted that res folder and once rebooted it was back ...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Morningstar:
From experimenting, I believe that it dumps the ramdisk to the root of the device every time it reboots. You can delete any local file, & if it's a file mirrored in the ramdisk it always reappears after a reboot. If you delete it from the ramdisk (which requires decompiling the boot image), it stays gone.

As for that 'charger' file, I don't have nearly enough programming knowledge to know exactly what it is/does, but it's definitely connected to the animation. I wish I knew better what I was looking at lol.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Morningstar:
Also, just to satisfy my curiosity, I tried removing just the /res folder, then just the charger file from the ramdisk, and if either one is missing the phone doesn't boot. It doesn't even show the initial Google splash, just a black screen. So apparently the .png's in /res/images/charger are important, even though the animation doesn't draw from them...

And since I can't seem to add more than one image per post from the XDA app, here's another look at part of the charger file...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigfdaddy2:
Well damns u gotten further then me lol... I'm gonna have to jump on the ol desktop and start seeing what I can get into ... Maybe we figure it out some time lol...

I've asked a couple people about it and hope I will hear back soon ... I remember back on the s2/s3 u could change anything ya want just like with the old hd2 but know a days they lock these things up like their gold ...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigfdaddy2:
Well we got some help know neighborhoodhacker is gonna look in the build tree... He is the one doing cm10.2 linaro ... Also iamtrence is trying to help to know ... So between all us we should figure something out ...

Heck I even pulled the old laptop out n gonna give it go know to ....
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Morningstar:
I hope between us we can figure it out. Really, changing a little animation that I hardly ever see anyway is rather trivial; it's all about the challenge for me. It's not often I can't eventually find a solution to things like this, but when it happens it bugs the living hell out of me lol.

That being said, I still just have this feeling that It's going to end up with eine something we can't change. I'd love to be proven wrong though. In any case, I've learned quite a bit just from casually poking around with this, and isn't knowledge gained a better reward than a custom battery animation?

:thumbup:
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigfdaddy2:
Yea that's what got me I hate not figuring it out ... It what driving me to go ahead and find answers and figure it out..whether it can be changed or not IDC really but it killing me not being able to find out where ....
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bigfdaddy2:

As always, I may well be wrong, but I don't believe any images are actually stored there. My understanding is that that location is one of a few virtual frame buffers, rather than the actual data set being rendered (charging images in this case).

Hi

I have the international e975 version.

It has a very good charging animation (power off charging anim ofcourse) and not the minecraft-white one..

Some time ago i switched to 4.4 and 4.3 for a day (it was enough..) and then i flashed the stock again with kdz.

Since then the charging animation is the awful white one and not the original.

I searched and found the png files from the original anim in /vendor/etc/chargerimages

The white one that is default now is in the /res/images/charger

I am replacing the files in the folder, but when i reboot the crappy white anim is still there. Booting up, cheking the directory and the new files that im putting there (the original anim) are gone and the png's from the white one created again..

Anyone found the solution to this?

Hi Everyone,

Long lost member here, lol. Experimented lots with my Galaxy S4G, and now odin is my best friend.

Anyhow onto my issue with my S3 which is on Telus, not that makes a difference in this case.

Everything is stock, other than imbeded root. Rooted since the day i bought it lol.

So up until a few days ago, my phone worked just fine. However recently noticed that in the morning after it says "fully charged" 100% with a green light on, I unplugged it and after a few min it drops to 62% and drains normaly from there.

So what I did is next day charged it till a 100%, unplugged it, (at midnight or 1ish) than dropped to 62% and plugged it back in, charged to a 100 again and this time it stayed ON normaly after that.

Now I always have to charge it twice every night.

Is there a way to reset the battery memory??

I've tried the battery pull, resetting multiple times, shutting down........

When a tinkered with custom roms on my S1 I always wiped "dalvic cache" I believe for this reason.

Is there anything I can do?

Or has anyone else had this problem?
