[Verizon HTC One (M7)] andybones:
I may be S-OFF but it came with a price-tag, 8 days of stress. Monetary value was also worth it, but being ignored for 2 days while other phones that got there 1-2 days after mine did with no response, not a great process for ME personally, please don't attack me again ppl this is MY experience and opinion.

But,

trust me bro if I knew how I'd do it.. I always do..

I have and never will mess with the audio ESP on this phone.

I could turn it too high because I have no idea what I'm doing and blow all your speakers.

I don't ever claim to be Mr. Amazing DEV either, in-fact according to XDA I am only a Recognized Contributor.

but I digress. I have limited skill. I am not one that can write original code.

I am decent with smali, but again cannot write original code, most devs can't either, in-fact prob 99%.

Does this mean I am worthless as a Developer, IMHO, no, as it's proved on the SG3/SG4.

Basically, my skill range only goes so far, I really do wish I could fix everything you guys ask for, but the reality is, I just am not that talented to accomplish the task, and I',m never embarrassed to admit it. I have an *idea* of where I would start coming from the S4 and call recording, but that entire MOD confused me, so like I said I don't want to change a value and boom there goes ur speakers lol

my notifications come in VERY loud compared to my s3/s4.. I have it set to less than half, FWIW
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] mjs31:
I think someone would need to use custom rom or custom hacks to do this. Definitely would have to be rooted to fix this. Something like the Viper rom with the extra tweaks it has might accomplish this. I know...this is not avail yet.

It is just a built in protection I bet. It thinks you have headphones on and some of the notifications can be pretty loud.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] red rage:
i guess that could be part of it, for ear protection . probably not to many people running a set of speakers all day for music .

And andy i meant no disrespect at all . sorry your phone got passed up and you were without it so long . i can flash a rom and maybe a little more .thats the limit of my romming abilities . i have no clue how much you know ,but im sure its more than me . so all i can do is ask . loving the rom cant wait for the next update . thanks again
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] andybones:
no need to apologize!

but thank you all the same!
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] nrfitchett4:
wow, in how many different threads are you going to go off topic and bring this up? You don't want to be bashed for it, stop posting about it.

Where'd your thread go about buying a java card? You make stuff disappear better than houdini.

To the OP, I have noticed this as well. I'm guessing this will definitely require root at least. Maybe devs can incorporate a fix into ROMs.

Those in the know swear an exploit is coming, and that should help things. Personally, I'm sending my phone to colorado. The guy has been 100% perfect on getting the phones s-offed and returned. I think the longest total time has been 10 days.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] red rage:

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] euklid:
I just got this case a few days ago, and I love it!! I'm wondering how you clean the black part though, I notice that you put it in any non super clean surface and it the black back gets smudged. See picture below, I've tried cleaning it with a micro cloth but it doesn't help much, i'm afraid to use any liquid, any suggestions?? Also I noticed that after a couple of days, the area around the camera and led flash is raised, not touching the back cover of phone, i didn't notice this until today, not sure if it was my fault putting it on or if this happened to anyone else? I bought it through amazon, and got a genuine code..
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] ficeball:
Yeah, its really the drawback from Neo Hybrid (the camera part). you can clean it with dishwashing liquid..
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] singjai:
It's really easy to clean. Just take the case off, remove the plastic frame, and put a couple drops of dishwasher soap on it and a little bit of water. Rub the foam all over the case with your hands and rinse it off. Dry it as much as possible. The case will literally look brand new and will show those shiny sparkles on the black part again.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] euklid:
Thanks guys will try to clean it tonight..so the raised part around camera is normal?? I thought maybe I got a deffective one, doesnt bother me much I just wanted to make sure it wasnt just mine.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] dikime:
The phone itself is raised there, and they didn't cut it properly. It's not a huge problem but you can always cut it a little bit on the inside (and risk ruining the case in the process :D ).
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] GreenXSniper:
I know this is an older thread, but did you have any luck cleaning the case op? I tried dish soap but it didnt work. I'm about to try using that industrial orange hand cleaner stuff because it is abrasive but that might realla damage the case... This smudge on the back of my case is killing me!
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] scottjowitt:
I used an alcohol pad to clean mine and afterwards i had two black fingerprints on the alcohol pad showing how much dirt came up......looks brand new
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rangercaptain:
Sorry guy, but on step one there is a very high probability of someone bricking their phone.

Why? Because it has happened about 100 times over the past two years from people using that site/method. If you flash the wrong kernel you kill your precious.

You should edit your step to say in the strongest terms triple check your operating system and get the correct kernel.

And step one is unnecessary because all roms here are already rooted.

1. Flash TWRP using pc and Odin.

2. Download new rom.

3. Boot into recovery.

4. Wipe cache, system, data.

5. Flash rom. Boot and wait 10 minutes.

6. Check settings for networks.

7. Optional modem flash.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] studacris:
Only wipe that's needed is a factory reset within recovery. That wipes /cache too. The dalvik cache resides on the data partition and is thusly wiped as well.

The Rom will have a format /system line within the updater script.

And within titanium backup don't backup or restore system settings (anything in the list that's red.)

And as said rooting first isn't needed unless you've been using stock for awhile and have apps you'd like to backup first... the easiest way to root is simply flash the latest twrp with Odin.. boot into recovery... then when you go to reboot the system it'll see that you're not rooted and ask if you'd like to do so.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] grafton24:
Thanks for the feedback. Like I hope I stressed, this is the method that worked for me.

I guess I have the terms mixed up in 1. I'm saying to install ClockworkMod (or TWRP) and root your phone. I want to root it here because I want Titanium installed before I change ROMS so I can go back to exactly how everything was before modding if I want. Does that make sense?

Also, can you tell me what's specifically wrong with the site I link in Step 1? I was on ICS at the time I think. Does it brick if you do it on JB?

I'll change the step to say to go here instead - http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/96

Is that better?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] grafton24:
Also, can you explain your cache wipe suggestions. I've seen the official instructions say to Reset, then Wipe Cache, then Wipe Dalvik. I know the last 2 are included in the first, but why are we explicitly asked to do them again? Why do you think we don't?

My thinking behind adding it here is that it does no harm and if some devs think that not doing it will cause problems then why not include it to be extra safe.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] studacris:
If you wanted it back to the way it was before modding anything then you could flash a custom recovery and do a nandroid backup before rooting at all.

Titanium backup needs root. If you want your app data after flashing a rom then that's when it's needed.

As far as extra wiping... putting your arms over your head spinning in a circle while chanting a manta does no harm either and is just as effective.

When you flash as often as I do... you wanna streamline the process. Extra anything is just that... Extra... and is just a waste of time
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Agoattamer:
His first step is correct. No one that I know has bricked their phone using those directions because that link does not install any kernels. And it never did. It works for all versions of android. Even after all this time there is so much misinformation given.

Studacris's help is as good as gold though. He has put me in my place in the past. ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] grafton24:
Thanks Everyone.

hello everyone. im using att htc one that is rooted using viperone 2.6.0. the rom is great!!. im using t-mobile us but my problem is that i only get edge data. is it possible to get 4g ?? another stupid question. is it possible to load t-mobile software on it??. i really want to be able to get 4g on my phone. please help guys. i thank you all in advance.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FanDroid09:
You don't need to run tmo "software" on it. All GSM ones basically can run the same roms/software as far as custom roms go.

Have you checked your apn in settings? My guess is the current T-Mobile lte apn isn't selected or added.

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] KindleUser:
I have root, but I think it has to do with me uninstalling lookout, how do I get it back because I tried to install it, make it a system app again, but it still won't do the OTA update, help anyone? Thanks.

EDIT: I love you LG, you always have a solution for everything. I used the LG Mobile Support Tool to upgrade my firmware and it worked! Thanks LG for making such well made applications, much better than Samsung -_-
[G2 General] finkalink:
So I finally got around to messing with my phone, and decided to see what it could really do for battery life! I'll try and be specific as possible about all of the tweaks that I've performed, but feel free to ask any questions as well.

To start out, my phone is rooted and is the Verizon version. Throughout the 50 hours, I was a little more conservative with usage than usual, but not overly so. I also used Titanium Backup to freeze and uninstall system app and VZW bloatware. In addition, I used a utility called 2x Battery that automatically turns off my 4G data when I turn my screen off, but enables it every 15 mins to pull down notifications. I also utilized wifi at home and kept the brightness fairly low (which I didn't find to be an issue because the screen visibility on this monster is great IMO). Another thing that I did was uncheck the 'Wi-Fi & Mobile Network Location in the Location Access Menu.

First of all, here is some proof! 50 Hours, 14 Minutes - With 6% battery left

The following are screenshots from the battery menu of the things that are taking the most battery. In order of how much battery they used, here they are:

Android System (33% battery usage)

Screenshot 1

Screenshot 2

Cell Standby (15%)

Screen (12%)

Android OS (10)

Ok, so that is what the top usage on my phone, and I'd like to list out the settings I changed in Titanium Backup. I guess I'll give the generic warning that I'm not responsible for you messing with your phone, and you should make sure you know what you are doing so that you don't brick or ruin your device. That being said, I have seen very little or no negative effects of the items that are listed.

So I would love to get some feedback as to how people think that we can continue to extend battery life on this already awesome flagship device! A few questions that I have:

Android System is using the most battery. What else can I safely disable to optimize this? Are there any that you see that I froze or removed that I shouldn't have?

Are there any other hacks that people think would be beneficial to try out?

What do you guys feel about disabling location services and/or auto-rotate?

Thanks for reading, good luck maxxing out your own battery!
[G2 General] Constrabus:
Constrabus like! I've only seen up to 44 hours on my N4. Once on cm, you can pretty much guarantee at least almost 3 days with these settings.
[G2 General] imstill@g:
Great sharing, I starred it for future reference, thanks
[G2 General] Beaumac:
Thank you for posting the list of apps frozen and uninstalled. That said I love slide aside and wifi storage. How do you not use those? :laugh:
[G2 General] finkalink:
To me I just don't see the reasoning behind Slide Aside. If I hold the home button it shows the passive running apps, and I just switch from there. But I haven't looked into it too much, what else do you like about it?

Also, how about the wireless storage, is that just an auto upload to your desktop? I use Dropbox to auto-backup my pics and videos, and music is backed up to Play Music. Most additional stuff like calendar or task list app are Auto backed to their own servers or Google's.

I'd love to hear more about the benefits of these apps, I'm always open to changing things up!
[G2 General] Gasaraki-:
Good job!
[G2 General] cmbtswmr:
Nicely done.

For those that think you need root to accomplish great battery, I am on track to pass 33 hrs without root. Screen @ 40%
[G2 General] burningembers:
I've found the best way to increase my battery life is to turn of wifi & mobile network location, but that basically renders a variety of apps, including Google Now, useless. :(
[G2 General] superhtchd2:
I believe it. I been averaging 18hrs every day with mine but that is being used a good bit throughout that entire 18hrs. I usually keep my screen at 25% unless I'm outside and its really sunny. WiFi and all is off and I have quite a few uninstalled apps thru titanium.
[G2 General] craigbailey1986:
Just wanted to post this awesome battery life my phone has gotten after 4 charge cycles. This is better than my droid max I recently purchased. Anyone who says this phone has horrible battery life is either a liar or has a defective phone.

This is with 90% 4glte and brightness set to auto 75% baseline. Not turning anything off. I work a lot so screen time isn't that much but who really uses their phone for 6-8 hours a day? That a quarter of your life spent on a phone each day. Any ways great phone not much to complain about yet
[G2 General] o0adam0o:
Can someone explain freezing an app? Why wouldn't you uninstall it?
[G2 General] triskropf97:
You can't uninstall system app's..
[G2 General] teeg07:
You can, actually. If you use Titanium Backup, you can uninstall anything you want. You freeze apps in case uninstalling them breaks something, or it may be something you want to use in the future. A lot of the time, people will freeze an app and run it like that a few days. No issues? Uninstall the mofo.
[G2 General] triskropf97:
Lol yes sorry I didn't clarify thanks for that.. I meant without rooting and without TiBu u can't
[G2 General] drkow19:
I root uninstalled a lot of apps. Most were listed in the OP here. But I ran into 1 tiny little problem, that is causing me to factory reset and redo everything... I don't know what app it was that I uninstalled that causes this, but every time I would plug in a headphone jack or usb cable, it would show the animation at the bottom, but "pop and plug" (or "plug and pop", I forget) would force close. No other side-effects were noticed. Anyone have a clue what app uninstalled would cause this so nobody else makes the same mistake? I unfortunately did several apps simultaneously and did not notice the issue until much later.
[G2 General] Hendrickson:
Plug in pop is just an app that launches short cuts of apps that would use headphones. If you dont want it or the F/C just use titanium to uninstall plug and pop
[G2 General] geoff5093:
Mainly because a lot of the times we freeze apps we think we don't need, and by freezing them if you find out later having that app frozen caused issues, you can simply defrost it rather than trying to locate and reinstall it.
[G2 General] DeaconBoogie:
I've not disabled as many apps as you, but I make heavy use of Greenify to hibernate apps I don't want running in the background.

I've been off-battery for seven hours. I spent about two hours streaming Jim Rome earlier in the day (I can only take about two hours of Romey) and playing with the browser for a bit over lunch. I am at 89% with an ETA of 39 hours until the battery dies.

Very, very impressed with this phone's power management.
[G2 General] nk7600:
I want someone to try and just leave the fone on standby without using it, possibly leaving it in Airplane mode lol ;)
[G2 General] bigsnack:
What rom are you on? As for sync everything is off, as in sync is turned off, at least 90% of the time as I manually sync once every 3 hours and then make sure sync is fully off.

Edit: Update Android System today has gone down to 39%, so maybe the rom is finally settling down?
[G2 General] krispy1:
I'm using a d803 model. Just using it normally. Stock everything. Using nova launcher. I am in Toronto on bell so signal is always pretty good. brightness has been 40% sometimes 50-60 out doors. In the summer I probably will get less battery since I will have to jack up screen brightness more.

But overall the g2s battery has been very impressive.
[G2 General] tbaker077:
So 5-7 hours of screen time is normal? Cause that is what me and my friend are getting. But, most reviews are saying they are getting 8 hours of screen time at 65% brightness, while I am only at 50%. How are they doing that via the stock rom?

On a side note, I noticed from some of the pictures posted here the back cover is technically removable. So, is there anyway to upgrade to say at 3300-3500mah(they seem like they could fit the stock cover) battery? It be nice to get that little extra battery life. Thanks
[G2 General] khaytsus:
Please don't make **** up, AOSP ROMs in general are fine. I've gotten 60+ hours on battery, screen on time I haven't looked at much since I tend to use the tablet for extended things like reading gaming etc.
[G2 General] bigkevbosky:
I'm not making **** up, I'm giving my opinion based on flashing multiple AOSP roms and not getting nearly the same battery life as stock or Flex based roms.

Everyone can make their own decision, but it just seems that stock based roms give better signal and battery. Doesn't mean AOSP isn't good for some folks.
[G2 General] triskropf97:
I only believe the aosp battery screenshots.. Its so easy to hide charging on the stock battery graph..
[G2 General] trikotret:
Dude stop cheating by charging your phone and then unplugging it. What you gain about lying. Do you work for LG???

[G2 General] barondebxl:
I'm not sure gotta double check the thread
[G2 General] vPro97:
30% android system usage is perfectly normal. I can still manage to get 5 hrs of screen on time and 50 hours of standby. If you want to improve that, turn of knock on.
[G2 General] fULL_:
Wow, just WOW! The LG G2 is such a BEAST! Played Deer Hunter for 2h, had a screen time of 4h 30m and 30hours Battery life (still didnt go down to 0, had +2h 30min expected time left). Best ****ing phone i've ever had!
[G2 General] zathus:
Yeah, it's a little ridiculous. I'm moving in a week and I pretty much spent all day on Craigslist stuff like that looking for furniture and what not. Didn't realize I use the phone so much lol not going to list all my settings is this is not real world situation. Its like 80 percent browser
[G2 General] bigsnack:
I think I need to stop looking at this thread, because I am getting worried that something is wrong with my device, cause I am so far only getting around 4-5.5 hours of screen time, while I am seeing others getting like 8-10 hours(which is about double of what I am getting). :-\
[G2 General] greyhd:
Also depends how you use it.
[G2 General] bigsnack:
True, Im usually just browsing the web, but yeah. Maybe once I get a different kernel to work I may get like 30-60 minute improvement in battery life.

On a semi-related note, what is LG Intelligent Agent? I think that maybe taking some battery away from me.
