[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] customromfan:
You don't need to unlock your bootloader, because it is not posible yet for the P6, as far as I know.

And CWM is something you just need if you want to install custom roms.
[LG Optimus Black] hemo-ali:
Welcome guys

Does anyone know what's the best kernel for increasing battery life time

thnx all
[LG Optimus Black] SloAngel:
you can increase battery life in every kernel. Under clock your cpu or change the governor. There are few apps for this, best for me is set cpu
[LG Optimus Black] hemo-ali:
I'm using mackay kernel and my governor is ondemandX

But under clocking will make the phone too slow (which I cannot get used to)

but in some roms like v30B ICS and I remember cm7 and Zeus

the whole night(wifi off / mobile data off / GPS off / Bluetooth off) just connected to network and it may consumes only 2%-3%

So is there any thing to do with Macaky rom/kernel

thnx
[LG Optimus Black] hemo-ali:
from 85% to 18% in just 6 Hours wifi on but not connected and screen off and everything else was off

I think this is huge now I will try BBS:)
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
Set wifi to off, when screen is off, also I really recommend Greenify, this saves a lot of juice, if you freeze the right apps ;)
[LG Optimus Black] noranyan:
I also strongly recommend Greenify.

I have purchased the paid version and have most of the apps (including system ones) greenified. Battery life significantly improved and no problem with receiving messages etc.

I use "Better wifi on/off" as well, to automatically turn wifi off when my home network is not connected.

I would also advise switching automatic sync off. That's the culprit of battery drain for my OB.

Hope these helps. :)
[LG Optimus Black] combatuser:
Hi, all CM 10/CM10.1 roms seems to be more battery draining.

I have updated my Lenovo Tablet to [ROM][JB 4.2.2][CM10.1] for Lenovo Ideapad K1 3G+Wifi however when I pair my bluetooth mouse, I am not getting anything to come up. The tablet says its paired but I get no pointer. Any ideas?

Thank you Jerry. Glad to know it wasn't just me.

I know some of you were contacted by Giftiz and I was asked by other developers who saw the icon in my game about Giftiz too. If you never heard about it, it's an Android game discovery service where people are motivated to download your app to complete a mission and win real gifts. Sometimes this service is for free.

Here is my experience with giftiz, incl. graphs from play store:

Part one

Part two - after one month

Part two coming soon, after my "featuring" ends.
[General Marketing & SEO] koto09:
I never heard about this service. Thank you for sharing your experience. I will give it a try.
[General Marketing & SEO] ob1cat:
Thanks for sharing.

I have also integrated Giftiz in my Anroid game (Rock Ninja) and will get featured on October the 7th. I'll let you know how it goes.
[General Marketing & SEO] pep_dj:
How it went? Did you get more downloads?
[General Marketing & SEO] ob1cat:
I got 1700 downloads the first 3 days, it went down pretty fast after that once the active users did the mission. I estimate a total of 2.5k to 3k downloads coming from Giftiz but don't have the exact number yet.
[General Marketing & SEO] kulisgames:
Here's the second part of my article, Giftiz after one month:

http://android.kul.is/2013/10/giftiz-review-part-ii-month-after.html
[General Marketing & SEO] maskah:
Thank you for your feedback. Giftiz has contacted me too.

I will tell you here how it's happened.

Sorry for my broken English
[General Marketing & SEO] rden.april:
For any who has tried this service and saw a spike in installs, how well was user retention? Also, how was working with them? Good, bad?
[General Marketing & SEO] kulisgames:
Read the second part of my article. By basically you are looking into a couple of thousands new users in 2-5 days who will very likely uninstall your game immediately after they finish the mission. Some of them will stay. Few hundreds. Depends on the quality of the game.
[General Marketing & SEO] kulisgames:
Well, how did it go? Share your game as well, don't be shy :)
[General Marketing & SEO] maskah:
Hey,

My game is https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jessyleite.planetmushroom

Giftiz have gave me arround 3K downloads in few days. But there is a delay between sdk integration and apparition in Giftiz, ~ 20 days. My aim was to use Giftiz to increase my position in the top new free but with that delay, it was too late :(

Then, i think Giftiz's users decrease us rate, before, i had 4.5 with 50 reviews ~1000 downloads and now it's 3.65 with 110 reviews ~ 5000 downloads.

Sorry for my English.

Good continuation!
[General Marketing & SEO] kulisgames:
It is true and I also mentioned it in the article that the Giftiz players are very unhappy if your game prevents them to fulfill the mission. They are much less forgiving and they will rate your game with low marks without much hesitation.
[General Marketing & SEO] vincespeed:
Thank you guys about your infos, I'm integrating this service right now...;) let's hope for good!
[General Marketing & SEO] kidgames:
Thanks for great sharing. Good to know about Giftiz advantage and disadvantage.
[General Marketing & SEO] -=Urbanus=-:
What about pricing? How much you had pay for 5k downloads?

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sickzz:
Hello,

my Nexus 7 wasn't turned on since 3 weeks. Yesterday, I tried to boot it but it just shows the Google logo. The same with the Recovery. So I tried to install with N-Cry a Recovery, it shows that the installation was successfull, but it won't change everything. The same with the factory ROM, I tried it to install it via ADB, it shows that the installation was successfull, but it doesn't boot and still stucks in the Google-Screen. Know? What can I do? Is it a hardware problem? That would be terrible, because the gueranty ended august 2013.

Greetz!

Edit: If I try to Shut it down via fastboot, it shows Unrecoverable Bootloader Error.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carbonbased573:
I am having an identical issue. I have experienced and resolved the battery issues before. This is not that. I've tried factory resets, toolkit stock flashes, toolkit OS updates, adb wipes and flashes. Everything always says successfully completed but it only boots to Google logo and occasionally freezes on the nexus logo.

Does anyone have more info on the N7's acutal boot process? I assume the Google logo is the POST. Is the Nexus logo provided by the bootloader, the kernel or after the OS starts running?

Is there a way to install a new bootloader?

Is there a win7 or Debian program program that will show in more detail every single line and process during the boot process?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sickzz:
Yea, there is a way, I've allready done it, but it doesn't boot anyway. With the Baseband Version sorry, but it's my fault, there cannot be a Baseband Version on my Grouper.

Have you tried flashing back to stock with fastboot?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akerocks:
yes, i have tried that but it still won't pass fastboot. i don't know what's happening. i even tried disconnecting the power/volume buttton cable and tried rebooting again to check if it was the one causing the problem but still it did the same thing.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rebel1699:
So, you downloaded the factory image from google and flashed via fastboot from the pc?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akerocks:
yes, using wug's toolkit
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rebel1699:
No, not wugs. Forget toolkits. First, go here and download the factory image.

https://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/nakasig-kot49h-factory-83d93b5f.tgz

Unzip into same folder on pc where you have fastboot binary.

Next, boot to fastboot. Plug N7 to the pc. Open pc directory where fastboot is. Open a command window. (Click on an empty section of the folder so no files are highlighted, hold shift key on keyboard and right click with mouse. Choose "open command window here" from the dropdown)

Type these commands.

fastboot erase boot

fastboot erase cache

fastboot erase recovery

fastboot erase system

fastboot erase userdata

fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-grouper-4.23.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

sleep 10

fastboot -w update image-nakasi-kot49h.zip
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akerocks:
hi, thank you for the reply. i followed your steps but this is what i got...
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rebel1699:
The commands must correspond to the version you downloaded. Jkr16s....4.23...etc. Could you post a screenshot of the folder you have those files in? Ill see what the deal is

You unzipped the tar.gz, correct?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rebel1699:
Here is the issue. When you downloaded the tar.gz file that the image-nakasi-kot49h.zip was in, ot also contains the bootloader and some files called .flash-all, .flash....etc. All thoes files need to be in this folder. The image cant be flashed without the bootloader being sucessfully flashed, and the -w command is not recognized withoit the .flash-all.... files. Unzip all the tar.gz contents into the folder and do it again. It will be fine.

After copy xap file to SD card, you have to restart the phone and wait few second (may be 1 or 2 minutes). Next you run to the market store and tap SD card, when opened you can install copied app from the list.

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] th3cr0w:
There is no such thing as "best rom". It is all personal. Try them and see which one suits YOU best. In case of any troubles just flash back to stock as already mentioned (or get cocore cwm/twrp and create memory snapshot before any kind of modification - so you can revert your phone to that working state). Think windows restoration point that actually works.

2)i think cm 10.1(my current daily usage ROM. pac is very good, but the latest cm build is not merged into it yet, so some older bugs are still there.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] retsen:
I have an odd issue that has more to do with the physical feel of the glass rather than the smoothness of the UI. My screen seems to be missing the oleophobic (sp?) coating or something that makes it so that my fingers don't glide on the screen like my GS3 for example. Others have noticed this while playing with my phone without me mentioning it as well.

I'm a freak about my screens and keep a microfiber cloth with me at all times (ok maybe two or three) and haven't felt a screen like this since using my old storm 2.

Anyone else experience this or does this sound like a defective screen? I paid full price for this thing and don't want to settle for something that is not the norm.

[Galaxy Note 3 General] neoKushan:
Interesting blog post, but I think you misunderstand how Android works when it comes to RAM. It's not that the device is "RAM hungry", it's that it never releases RAM unless it needs to. That's why after running a few apps, nearly all of the available RAM is used. But this is ok, this just means that when you swap back to those apps, they're instantly available. When you open another app, the oldest app in memory is silently killed to free up the necessary RAM.

Now don't get me wrong, I'm sure the system is using up more than an average amount to account for the multitasking stuff alone, but saying that after a few apps have been used it's using 2.3GB of memory is a bit misleading. It may as well use that RAM, or what's the point in having it?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] koniakki:
This is something most android users fail to grasp. :good:

Understandably of course since most of us use windows or other platforms, with less memory sometimes means better performance. But memory in general is there to be USED not the opposite. ;)
[Galaxy Note 3 General] cool_dhamz:
Yup i agree. But the amount of Ram used on my One and Note 2 was much less. Im sure there are some background processes goin on other than the open apps.

Ill post a screenshot of open apps vs ram as soon as i get to my office wifi..

[Galaxy Note 3 General] staticx57:
The only negative of ram used is power drawn else ram used is good. I remember when people were complaining that vista used ram all the while the machine ran smoother over all as programs were loaded into ram instead of much slower HDD.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] stanley08:
I have some questions. :)

1. Whats is Actual Internal storage size? 18GB? :crying:

2. Tried disabling bloat from all all application in Application manager? How much RAM can u free up?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] jutley:
Just for the record its 23.43gb free
[Galaxy Note 3 General] stanley08:
Dat sounds better. At least...
[Galaxy Note 3 General] cool_dhamz:
1) - 32GB internal with 6GB allotted to system. Currently have 24.58GB available on mine.

2) - Disabled a few. 1.6GB ram on boot.

If i do not even use the device or open any apps, after about 30 mins the ram goes up to 2.0 or 2.1GB unnecessarily..
[Galaxy Note 3 General] stanley08:
Thanks for this mate. I guess 24.58GB is decent enough (coming from an S4 with only 8.90GB), though i'm guessing you have the SM-9005 snapdragon as someone said his has 23GB+ earlier.

And when root methods come, or custom ROMs, RAM usage will change. :D
