[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dullahan263:
So i have had my S4 for about 2 weeks now. It is so much better than my old HTC in every possible way. The battery for normal usage is also very good. I can play games for 5-6 hours or web browsing for 8-9 hours. I have no complaint there. Just the idle battery life is bugging me. It always seems to be too much for such a big battery.

Last night, i charged to 100% and went to bed. I turned off everything ( 4G,wifi, sync, NFC, etc ) and put it in both flight mode and power saving mode. After 8 hours it went down to 92%. It is definitely not super. I would expect a drop of 1-2% in such an extreme power saving mode. If i let it idle like a normal person would, the battery would go down to 85% or something overnight. My old HTC idles better than this even with much crappier battery which normally dies after max 2 hours of web browsing.

And I'm on Stock Samsung. So please give me some information on how to troubleshoot this problem? Maybe custom roms can help because my HTC is on custom roms. Or the Samsung's loads of bloatwares are the culprits?

Any tips/tricks/experience is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

or if u have a rooted device you could try greenify and freeze bloatware by using systemcleanup i noticed a better battery life in my phone after doing so

1+ greenify it good app.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crauze:
I agree with the others, use Greenify to hibernate apps and either install custom ROM or use a file explorer such as Root Explorer to delete bloatware APK files in system/app

Hi All,

I have used CF-Auto-Root when I first got my phone about 3 months ago and rooted successfully and it changed my device status from Official to custom and therefore I was never able to check for OTA or install them.

I have also tried CF's Triangle Away at that time but it never set the status back to Official until last night when I installed the latest TA version 3.05 and this had worked it's magic and my phone status is now back to Official and I found an available OTA and downloaded it but I have not installed it yet. Why? Because I am almost sure I will lose root after installing the OTA update and I am not sure if I am able to re-root it again as I have heard and read that Samsung is trying to lock things down to make it harder for us to play around with our phones.

I My current build number is JDQ39.I9505XXUAMDE so if I am not mistaken, that means I am on firmware XXUAMDE.

The phone does not tell me any info after it completed the OTA download about this upfate apart "Stability Improvement"

My questions are:

1. How can I tell if this new firmware is not going to lock things down?

2. Would I be able to easily re-root after completing the firmware update?

I just plugged in my phone to my computer and Samsung Kies is telling me this:

Current firmware version : PDA:MDE / PHONE:MD8 / CSC:MD8 (VAU)

Latest firmware version : PDA:MG4 / PHONE:MG1 / CSC:MG1 (VAU)

and asking me if I want to upgrade.

Can someone help me answer my questions and clear this for me?

Sorry for all these questions but I am just a little worried this update will be a bad move and I don't want to regret it.

Thanking you in advance for putting up with me and my apologies if some of these questions are repeated or dumb.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bakterio:
AFAIK, MG4/MG1 is not sooo new, and it's still not afected by the 'knox' bootloader thing.

I upgraded to MGA (AMN) some 3 weeks ago, using KIES, temporarylly lost root, but flashet CF Auto Root again, and .... voila! good to go again.

.... oh yes, I had to install supersu again from play store (somehow it was rooted, but the application was not there).

Hope that can help you!

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Saturn007:
Thanks Bak for the info.

I was doing some more googling and I came across these 2 pages:

http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/articles/4...ial-android422-xxuamde-jellybean-firmware.htm

http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/articles/4...roid422-xxuamdn-jellybean-official-update.htm

There is something wrong here as my phone is I9505 and it came with the amde unlike what is suggesting that official firmware for I9505 is amdn.

I got my phone from Voda Australia hence the VAU.

If I am reading this correctly:

Current firmware version : PDA:MDE / PHONE:MD8 / CSC:MD8 (VAU)

Latest firmware version : PDA:MG4 / PHONE:MG1 / CSC:MG1 (VAU)

Then after the OTA update then I should be on XXUAMG4 ? I really don't get this whole PDA / PHONE / CSC variables.

I am just tempted to install it and thinking if anything goes wrong or not to my liking then I can use the link I provided above to flash my phone with the official xxaumdn and this does not have the "knox" bootloader thing?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jarold143:
good decision mate! dont flash to the latest MH8 firmware cuz it locks out your fone.

sadly i've flashed mine without reading around. little did in know, MH8 includes knox with locked my phone.

right now i'm having root problems. tried using CF 1.60 the latest one.. which they said can bypass the knoxx thing. we'll i'm still having problems getting root access.. IDK why.

just wait and see. a dev might come up with some work around this KNOX bootloader thing
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bakterio:
Just checked with www.samfirmware.com

If you select the 'check your firmware', you'll see that the last version for i9505 and Australia VAU (vodaphone) is PDA:MG4 / PHONE:MG1 / CSC:MG1

So your carrier (vodaphone) hasn't released the MHx version yet (versions MHx hsve the knox thing)

PDA / PHONE / CSC are different pieces of the software/firmware, and may have different releases (you can even play with different ones, for instance, a diferent PHONE to be able to sim unlock, etc....)

If I was you, I'd let KIES do the update (it's the safest, together with the OTA), and re-root it.

Good luck

Bak
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Saturn007:
Thanks Bak. I upgraded over the weekend and re-rooted it and all is back to normal now.

I even got Triangleaway to reset counter and back to official status.

After flashing the V22 you need to reinput all the toolbox setting or as you found out if won't work Langer Hans has mentioned it in the rom thread (over 5,000 pages)

Reflash the rom ensure you choose to install the xposed mod then after you boot go in to the tool box and reset what's needed ok?

Yep, I get a short double tone (like call wating but shorter and two of them) every time I get a text and Im on a call. Heard in the earpiece or over bluetooth, not from the phones speaker. Never had this before I upgraded to the One from the One X. Cant figure it out without turning off all notifications.

So ive flashed alot of TW roms. But I really want to go to aosp 4.3. What is good n stable along these lines? What kernels does AOSP have? Is it worth going from 4.1.2 to 4.3 or should I stick to AOSP 4.2 roms. All advice is welcome
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] miketoasty:
The latest CM is probably the most stable AOSP kernel out there right now. I would just use the stock CM kernel though as I get some weird issues with the other kernels out there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] .shawn.:
Cm 10.1 or 10.2?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bfitz26:
10.2 is 4.3 10.1 is 4.2

There is no BEST and yet they are all the BEST. Members are expected to research and read through the Development threads. The only thing you will get here is a list of all the ROM's & Kernels because every member has found what is best for them.

The strangest thing:

I have an HTC One, and 2 Butterfly S phones. After weeks of working without problem, suddenly all 3 phones cannot send via an iCloud account (and different accounts too). They all get an error saying that the email settings are incorrect. But this was after weeks of problem-free use. It was one of the reasons I bought 2 more HTC phones as I liked the Mail app.

The settings are fine - and now I can send just fine if I use Kaiten. But for some reason the stock Mail app stopped working in all my HTC phones.

It's the weirdest thing.

Hey guys, after searching on xda without finding a answer I've got a question about SuperSU version 1.65.

Under the actual TWRP I am not able to install the SuperSU-zip, it says "unable to read zip". I downloaded it three times from the chainfire-thread to prevent a failure in the file.

Does anyone else have this problem and has probably a solution?

[HTC One X+] nerroSS:
The higher mA the faster the battery is charged.However this is not recommended due to the battery life will be affected as well.

In addition :

Your phone would get hotter, and this may damage your mainboard.

Long term usage will affect battery life span :).

EDIT: If you have one of those chargers , try charging with it. If your phone gets hot, unplug it as it can damage your device.

Normally, the device (phone) regulates the current while you charge the battery. 5V/1A only says that the charger

There is no bootloader unlock. Loki was implemented onto this device to bypass the bootloader or a need to unlock the bootloader.

Hello all,

due to a recent security incidence at my house, I have decided to install some cameras. I read online about using old android phones and I think it's a very good idea, so I bought 5 old android phones with led lights and what I would like to do is the following:

The cameras would start recording/taking photos when motion or sound is detected, and send me a notification. As well, if it's dark, I would like the led light to turn on before it records/takes photos otherwise it would be useless.

I was wondering if anyone knows of any app that would have both the motion and sound detection and the recording feature enabling the flash only when it's needed?

Thanks!:cowboy:

Check if you map has the correct name!

if you got an original version of Tomtom then you can install your map (From the setup) to you pc and then copy the correct map to your memorycard (SD or CF) and the it will recognise the map.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] BeyondtheTech:
Try forcing the selection of a map by adding a file called CurrentMap.dat and putting it in the following folder on your device:

The file should contain the following line:

or whatever the exact path of your map folder is. Don't forget the ending backslash.

I've looked around for at least 3hrs for that without getting answers so please if this has been discussed thoroughly in another thread point me to it.

I have made several nandroid backups using cwm and so far I had no problems backing up and restoring. Now I need a specific file from a backup I have on my pc. I have the complete sdcard on the pc with the /clockworkmod/backup and /blobs folders and the other files. On the new version of my phone the backups are on /mnt/shell/emulated/clockworkmod/backup/

I tried to to copy the backup folder (2013-01-...) From my pc to the new back up location and restoring. Obviously that didnt work that's when I realized they were .dup files. So I tried to paste the blobs folder as well and restore but same thing ... Error while restoring.

Now since the backup was done using a different path than this one would that cause the problem? Is there a specific procedure to accomplish what I'm trying to do? Are there other files other than the backup and blobs folders implicated in this type of backup?

Any help is appreciated
