Wow. I would feel the same way if I had those problems with the S4. Are these Verizon S4's that ya'll are getting all the lag and stuttering on? I've ran all the roms on mine and settled on Hyperdrive with a stock kernel. The ONLY issue I've had with the S4 is the dang 64gb SD card. My phone eats 64gb SD cards and renders them useless. But haven'r had any problems like ya'll are describing.

The stutter is inherent in touchwiz software. But S4 owners not eager to discuss it

i bought my note 8 n5100 model but i noticed that the battery lasts only 5 hours screen on in stock rom and i have wifi always on and using greenify i just browsing web using wifi and some times watching video and listen to music other times i have 40 % screen brightness and always turned on airplane mode and when i play games such as asphalt or modern combat the battery drain 10% in 5 minutes and the cpu temp reach 71 c is this normal ??

My device is new and I've tried breaking in the battery. Rooted it and froze any potential battery killing apps. Use it on low screen brightness. Getting 5-6 hours screen time. I have to believe that its normal, but I can't say 100% for sure.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] Royaltiger:
I believe the Note 8 with LTE tends to drain battery faster because of radio feature. I have a Verizon Galaxy 7.7 that also drains battery faster than the non-LTE version.

My Galaxy Note 8 (non-LTE) gives about 9 hours with wifi on and 40% brightness. However the tablet is non-rooted (if that matters).

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] messi2050:

Yes, data over a cell network uses more power than over WiFi.

---------- Post added at 03:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:22 PM ----------

There is no such thing as "breaking in the battery" for this type of battery. Li ion batteries do not need to be conditioned like the old NiCad type batteries.

All I would recommend on a new device, is to calibrate the battery meter on the phone itself: charge to full, leave it on the charger to ensure any top-off charge is achieved (maybe 30 min or more after "full" is indicated). Than drain to 10 or 20%. This sets the "high" and "low" flags for the battery meter, so the

meter

is more accurate. But it doesn't change your actual battery life (just like fiddling with a car's gas gauge doesn't mean there is magically more gas in the tank).

After calibrating the meter, the best thing for battery life on a Li ion battery, is frequent short charges, as opposed to full discharge cycles.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] ddelborr:
Same Issue

Same problem here. I have 9 month old Note 8.0 wifi only. Battery life has always been atrocious. Drains 1% every 1-2 minutes of basic use By basic use, I mean internet browsing, 20% screen brightness, no other apps open, all major tasks killed. This is absolutely pathetic for a $400 tablet. If I play any sort of game, such as Candy Crush, we're talking 1% every minute. I've never gotten through an entire movie.

I finally got so fed up that I sent it in to Samsung for service. I haven't gotten it back yet, but I received an email back saying the repair was a "software upgrade." I find that hard to believe. I will post again with the results after I get the device back. My satisfaction with the Note 8 is a 1 out of 10. I wish I would have gotten an Ipad mini or Google Nexus.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] HankChill:
I find it unusual that some of you guys have abysmal battery life. On my Note 8 I get amazing battery life, with average to heavy usage I don't have to charge it for a couple days.

I also only got it a couple weeks ago; maybe Samsung changed something inside the Note 8 since the release earlier this year?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] gooberdude:
I have a Note 8.0 WIFI that was made as an early release US model.

Like any Phone... Apps, GPS, WIFI, SD card, and Screen brightness all are factors in power drain.

I try to stay away from apps that have ads built in. Even small tickler or banner ads can cause battery drain and privacy issues.

Even though you may not see the GPS indicator being active, apps will poll GPS time to time.

In testing some apps, I found that most banking apps are too taxing on my device. Believe it or not Paypal, and Chase are real buggers to your privacy and consume more than what their apps are worth.

Bone stock with no SD card, the device consumed a lot of battery power between the first few power cycles.

I figured there must be a lot of services running in background to optimize and finish configuration of the OS.

Once that settled charging and running on battery smoothed out.

I am able to get 10% drain per hour on normal operation. WIFI always enabled, SD card installed, and lots n lots of apps installed as well.

Just surfing with power saving enabled, LEDs on, Eye watch activated, SD card installed, GPS enabled, and brightness on auto at +3, I can get about 5% battery drain every 40 to 45 minutes.

As for videos using internal speakers, I get 10% drain every 25 minutes... As the display brightness increases and speakers are at 3 with full Viper optimization.

To me being the slimmest and lightest 8 inch device, it gets pretty good battery time. One thing to note, if you feel the left side getting warm... it means you consuming power and to expect the battery to be consumed much faster.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] gooberdude:
Woah! That is way too many things to adjust... Get greenify app, and startup manager app... and be done with it. I get 8% an hour and 12% an hour with miracast movies to my tv. Having sync on... to go and do sync settings manually is a time consumer... just turn off sync at the quick buttons. Make sure blue tooth and Sat are off. Brightness is manual setup to be be bright enough to give good detail and whites on movies. I leave it alone so it is never an issue on adjusting for most lighting conditions.

I added a simple tool to give wifi data speeds... so I can see how often high rates of data are downloaded. Most of the time small packets of data are always being sent for network discovery and authorization, along with apps like email and what not.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] Samavb:
Hello , you can try for more screen on time

Glad to know your battery life improved and you can try for even better screen on time and also in terms of days. I have put up some screen shots for your reference in the attachment. Please check.

I forgot few tips there

Converting Google play services,

Google Bookmark Sync,

Google Contact Sync,

Google Calendar sync

Google Chrome

to user app (they are system apps)

but not to worry, you can convert them to user apps.

what you can do is

1) Uninstall Google play services and Google chrome that came installed with the firmware

2) Install Google play services and Google chrome from aptoide.apk app , convert it to user app (in case if it is showing in system app)

How to convert Google play services to to user app?

If you have ROM toolbox pro latest version 5.9.5 or 6.0.3 you can open app manager in that , then just do a single click you will have bunch of options, swipe your screen to right then you will see more options where you can see below there will be option , convert to user app

3) Xposed frame work (latest version)

4) download and install call recording mod (if you need, its worth)

5) download and install greenify and check the option in xposed frame work (activate it)

6) Install Android firewall

once you convert all of those system apps to user apps, freeze them.

Google play services - dont freeze. freeze the rest ..

Max battery life achieved on my Note in terms of days was 15 days but i lost the screenshot , my second highest was 11days and odd..

Note:- I don't use power saving, flight mode , no battery doctor , no wake lock detector.. I use ONLY greenify with Xposed framework and I freeze the battery sapping apps.

Before turning off the screen, I make sure I have closed all apps from recent apps and then clear some ram from task manager just to ensure there are no wakelocks.

So far it worked out wonders and my battery life is excellent and very happy with my Note 8.0 after 11 months of usage.

Battery drain is 1% or may be 2% in 10 hours standby .. and that helps in prolonging battery longevity over 4 days , 7 days , 10days or even 15 days.. If you have battery drain overnight then your Note will come for 1 or 2 days but by curbing the battery drain over night you can get it running for 4 to 7 days easily with excellent screen on time.

I am currently on firmware X-Note 5.1 4.2.2 and use my Note for watching Videos, Songs, games, reading Flipboard, Google play stand, S-Note, PDF reader , editor ,

I got screen on time of 11hrs 12min in 4days 20h..., previous highest screen on time was 11hr 6m, and before that 9hrs 26min (stock firmware)

XDA developers is great forum, after going through lot of posts by developers these are the tips that worked wonders. converting system apps to user app was something I found out from other developers in XDA , i was hesitant at first but when I did it eventually I was extremely satisfied and you can see the results.

I hope you can get ever better results..

Hello to everyone! I want to represent our first Android game! I hope you will like it :)

Title: I Hate Candy

Genre: 2D platformer / Action

Developers: Ducat, Hypnotriod

Technology: Adobe AIR

Platform: iOS, Android, PC

Description: The platform 2D shooter.

The ship is in distress with scientists on a strange planet, consisting of sweets.

The locals are happy to show newcomers and friendliness, throwing those sweets.

You receive a distress signal from the scientists and goes on a rescue mission.

Since sweets shield the signals from the beacons of the victims, their exact location can not be found - so the mission entrusted to you to come down to the planet to get the unlucky scientists.

And this operation would be a walk in the park on a sunny day, if it were not for one thing!

Representatives of the race of the hero can not stand sweet ...

Hey,

I tried your game, first I love the sarcastic humour that is basically present everywhere game/video and especially in the what;s new section ;) (you might want to change the "by Google" to a "to Google" in the first sentence of the what's new)

The game is really awesome and the level of details for the main character are really perfect, and the music is perfect for the genre of the game

I only encountered two small bugs:

1 - In the controller when on have your finger down on the right controller if you want to move left you are forced to remove your finger from the right controller first. If you swipe your finger to the left controler it keeps moving to the right. ( I don't know how it is handled in Adobe Air, but you can work it with flags and actionMove in other frameworks, or bing the buttons to the background if feasible somehow)

2 - The ads in the main menu are showing half of the banner ( attached, from a gnex 4.3 device )

You got a 5 * on GP, awesome work : )

Hope it helps.
[Android Apps and Games] Hypnotriod:
Thanks for reply! I really appreciate your support :)

I am not sure about changing behavior of controller, because you can not keep your finger on the screen on the same place, during the game. And your hero can suddenly turn to wrong way, or something. Maybe I just don't like "analog-like" touch screen controllers :)

Hello!

I've got a new provider (WinSim - O2) since a week and my mobile internet connection don't work (3G as well as EDGE and GPRS). I spotted out the problem, the APN settings are wrong. Now my provider tells me the correct APN settings, but I can't figure out how to set them in CM 10.1, because the designation in CM 10.1 ist very different to the designation of the provider's settings.

In CM 10.1 the settings are called:

Name

APN

Proxy

Port

Nutzername

Passwort

Server

MMSC

MMS-Proxy

MMS-Port

MCC

MNC

Authentifizierungstyp

APN-Typ

APN- Protokoll

Träger

My provider's Settings are:

APN:	internet.victorvox

IP-Adresse:	82.113.100.38

Startseite:	wap.o2active.de

Benutzername:	-

Passwort:	-

Übertragungsart:	GPRS

Verbindungsmodus:	permanent

Verbindungssicherheit:	aus

Authentisierungstyp:	normal

Login-Modus:	automatisch

Port (Proxy-Port; Gateway-Port) :	9201 (WAP 1.1) - 9203 (WAP 1.x) - 8080 (WAP 2.0)

So what setting is which in Cyanogenmod? Is the IP adress the one of the Proxy-Server, Server or MMSC?

I tested different possibilities, but can't get my mobile connection work.

So can you help me?

Hello,

Recently i got my Xperia Sp, all very nice device, does it job. Some flaws, but its ok for the price.

Today i was testing different securtiy phone options for lockscreen etc. I ended up with faceunlock, with extra pattern + another question. Works pretty nice, but pretty useless.

Here comes the problem:

When the screen locked and i hold the camera button to open camera, everything goes tilt. Camera app opens with an overlay telling me 'Face unlock has stopped working' with an 'ok' button under it. BUT i cant press 'ok' button, neither can i use faceunlock (because its still stopped?), my pattern, use my 'secret question' and press emergency call.

The only thing that worked was rebooting the phone. Does anyone have the same issue? Or willing to try it to see im not the only one.
