[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stefen Jerrard:
Guys I need your help to solve my battery drain issue!

My device fully charged and it drains 2-3% per minutes, sometimes it drains about 4% per minutes.. I still don't know the problem although I've used greenify,and lowering my cpu limiting ram usage through kernel tuner :'(

Sometimes I've not fully charged my phone about 45% , when I rebooting my device it goes to 99%(WTF? LOL) Already flashed different roms but still same..

I've already do factory reset and wipe battery stats but problem still same.. I appreciate your helps and solutions for my problem.. Any advice and experience?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AJM-hackers:
How old is your phone? Try doing a factory reset or using SD maid to clear out garbage apps and other stuff or buy a new battery.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stefen Jerrard:
Almost 1 year since i purchased the phone from htc store... But I've already done that you mentioned about... Thanks for reply i think its rom bug or kernel..

Any other suggestions?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Helbelinc:
The problem can lie anywhere..

some more information would be useful: What ROM are you using? What Apps do you have installed (roughly)?

I'd recommend you to install BetterBatteryStats (free for xda users, browse the forum) to see whether your phone goes to deep sleep at all.

Current Cyanogen-versions have the problem that the phone won't go to sleep when WiFi is on.

Hi

I have recently flashed 4.1.2 Stock UK non brand and battery Life is horrendous, can you please share any tips? These are my details:

Like today, phone on at about 07.00am, now is 10.29 and im down at 35% which is ridiculous with Screen on 1h 29m > 74% as the biggest hog...

recently tried to disable auto brightness, removed bloatware and few other things...is it the modem sucking too much or what??

4.1.2

Baseband : I9100XXKH3

Kernel : 3.0.31-Siyah-s2-v6.0b4+ gm@ubuntu #57 SMP PREEMPT Wed Dec 26 06:52:48 PST 2012

Build Number : ZJ054K.I9100XWLSW

I checked the battery and is 2 years old. When i had ICS 4.0.4 before, i could do a decent one day, not just a few hours, with same things going on, wifi, skype, sync etc, although sometimes battery jumped to like 10% for no reason, yesterday i recently calibrated with the 100% - remove batt - back in method..

thanks

Gab
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Helbelinc:
As I said:

Install BetterBatteryStats, charge your battery and then let BBS gather information for a couple of hours.

Then you can see whether your problems might be wakelocks or (what I suppose) something prevents your phone from deepsleep completely.

I have battery stats plus.... is that the app? Theres a menu wake usage.. is it that one?

Thanks

And after rooting it,have you done something else that could affect battery life?
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Th3Duck:
No problem :).

The screen uses most of the battery that is why it is important to know the screen on time.

How long did you use the phone, how long was the screen on? Just press the screen bar, button thingie in your battery screen (your picture) then you will see how long your screen has been on.

Good luck

Is there an app that has generic music controls for the SW2? I'd like to be able to control Pocket Casts and Google Play Music from the watch..

The default sony app is garbage. It does pick up google music, but there's no track info, no artist, nothing. Just a play button that doesn't even play the song.

Like, when I had a pebble, there was music boss...Anything similar?

Strange however as T-mobile is very slow with its communication and there are true wizzards on this forum. I woul have expected someone to

crack this baby. But maby it is really too hard to do. Ill keep waiting though

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] vtcats:
I've read about people having Wi-Fi issues in all 4 carrier's Forums on the Note 3 (as well as International), Mostly to do with message saying your connection is unstable and then switches to 4G,etc; or if after unchecking auto network switch, simply having their wifi connection slow to a crawl.

MY QUESTION is, how many people out there with Note 3's, that are using Wi-Fi are NOT getting any messages or have noticed any issue's? I might add, have also used your phone with a public wifi network that is maybe not as strong as your home network.

I'm trying to decide if I should switch to another NOTE 3 in my 14 day return period......

Thanks

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cantelumber:
I'm on my 2nd galaxy note 3, both have error in notification panel "your Internet connection is unstable". Sprint has confirmed this as a known issue, though reps in store are unaware /or playing dumb. Last week I was told by a Samsung rep this is a known issue and they're working on a fix and I should call back Monday. I gave them a few xtra days and when I called back on Friday, a different rep denied this being a known issue. This is quite frustrating as my 14 day satisfaction guarantee expires and my only choice now is to return it, (probably) or send it to samsung for evaluation and repair. I can't chance sending it to them cause of they can't fix this problem, I'll be stuck with a crippled phone for two years. Shame on sprint and Samsung. Dayum.

re: recommendation

I would recommend Wicked v7 Custom rom, it has all the bells and whistles which make a rom and the phone so great.

It's fast, smooth, lag free and everything a custom rom should be. Give it a try, you will not be disappointed........

They frown I comparing ROMs and staying debates over which is better - and just asking what people like is a little silly. What do you WANT? A stock Touch Wiz experience with all the Samsung and T-Mobile bells and whistles? Stock android? Simple and uncomplicated? Super-configurable? Highly optimized for performance, or battery life, or storage space?

I'd love to see a thread with links to the appropriate ROM thread and a Twitter-sized expansion if what's unique and noteworthy about the ROM (probably written by the dev), so there's a simple place to start comparing.

Best ROM threads are very subjective, dependent on many different criteria.

I have a strange feeling that this Best ROM thread will go the way of all the other Best ROM theads.......Locked ;)

What I have done is looked through the past 50 pages in the Q&A Forum, and have linked to all the Best ROM threads which have been Locked, listed from the newest to oldest. Although the number of Locked

Best ROM threads will continue to grow.

There are so many, that ironically these Locked threads have become their own source of ROM information, although ROM versions are constantly updated and new ROMs are emerging all the time.

So as is always said, it is suggested to go into individual ROM threads, read about what features they have, their feedback, ask any questions you may have, etc., and try them out to see which ROM suits your taste and works best for you:cool:

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] rushless:
A standard point of ding in the reviews is the price, yet as example the 32GB version is the same price as the 32GB iPad and the 2014 has a micro sd slot and no proprietary connection. Build seems good and the display is at a minimum, as good as my iPad 4.

Seems the app ecosystem of the iPad gets treated as part of the package, so the price is given more slack than Android. JMO.

Simply put, you do not normally see Apple getting dinged on price in reviews. Seems a bias there. I agree it seems $50 too high for each model (ditto for iPads too), but would not ding it in a review for that.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] SomeGuyDude:
There's a bias in tech reviews that things have to "catch up" to the iPhone or iPad. Any possible knocks on it will get brought out and highlighted.

I agree with your points, and that's ignoring the stylus that no other tablets have that turn it into a damn powerful art device. Of course I'd like it if it were a little cheaper but hey.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] ChrisNee1988:
Theres probably an implicit bias that androids should be cheaper than iphones
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] kkretch:
Why is iPad so much

Samsung is $50 more when you compare base models but here is a list of what you get that Apple does not have.........

1 - A 16:9 screen not an out dated 4:3 design

2 - Wacom digitizer with S-Pen

3 - Dual screen or more and true multi-tasking.

4 - Micro SD storage up to 64GB

Maybe what should be said about the iPad is why is it only $50 less than a Samsung Galaxy Note10.1 when it's feature are more in line with the $399 nexus 10. or the $394 Kindle Fire HDX 8.9.

.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] rushless:
LOL. I still in my brain make them equal and null the $50. Yep, they are not the same price, hence the ding (the Apple/Nexus centric reviewers do not see value in the sd slot). Most tablet users probably would not use the pen function much, based on current install base without the function. Most just see the premium price and not the extra stuff they may not use.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Ettepetje:
I love my 128GB iPad 4 Wifi to bits, for browsing and its high quality App standard. But, having seen (and in some cases owned) a great deal of poor Android tablets this new Note 10.1 I would value at least as high as the iPad. Many Apps are still poor, browsing is less fun, but having seen the drawing capabilities, its light weight and compact size (given the large screen), its superb movie playing capability (from sd !!!) and zero lag in everyday use easily makes up for it. The people I have shown it to (and handled it for a bit) were all highly impressed. It cost me 599 euro, which I consider a steal for what it offers.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] SomeGuyDude:
I think you nailed it here. People are overlooking the extra stuff and then complaining about the price. Yeah, it's true that most users don't care about the pen or the SD slot, but then that just means this isn't a product for them, not that it's overpriced.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] rushless:
I have the iPad 4 128gb as well, plus an Excite 7.7 32gb, TF300 (gave to wife) and Nook HD+ 32gb. I find I use my Nook HD+ more than the others due to form factor and the sweet display with Android. I was thinking of selling the Excite and HD+ and get the 2014, but will wait until the lag issues are resolved. I have lag issues with the HD+, but works great for everything except a very few resource heavy 3D games. Plus it costs $470 less than the 2014. Unless the lag mostly goes, I see no reason to change right now.

Right now, I use the HD+ and the iPad 4 and the Excite 7.7 is collecting dust. Toshiba IMO sucks for support, so will not get another product from them. Out of principle.

Added:

Perhaps the layered function of the S-Pen causes gpu bottleneck issue due to the display. Any way to turn off the S-pen function to mitigate lag (assuming that is the issue)?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] ChrisNee1988:
You can turn it off but that isn't the issue, it's Software optimization. it doesn't lag for me at all
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Ettepetje:
I truly have -zero- lag, so I am a bit amazed at how much coverage the issue gets. I am pretty sure there are no hardware differences to cause it, but besides maybe some extra/different provider dependent bloatware I suspect most of these people are just doing other stuff on it. Drawing on the 2014 Note 10.1 is working great, no S-pen problems there, the original launcher seemed fine but I exchanged it quickly to Apex. The internet browsers work a bit clunky compared to the iPad, for which I blame these browsers themselves (not the Note 10.1), I never use these "S note" features really so maybe the lag is somewhere there (??). The standard videoplayer is fine, but is short on audio format (=dts) support, so I'm using MX Player together with its downloadable NeoN-driver which is wonderful. In Settings I put the Screen mode on "Movie mode", got rid of all kinds of crap like Reading Mode, auto-brightness, etc. and enjoy awesome Live Wallpapers like awe-inspiring Ocean HD (with shark pack), Paperland, Paris winter, Star in the Sky and various others. Besides the overal Android App quality (and lack of 128GB, or more, micro-sd) I couldn't be happier with what I expect from it.

I would try it at a store and see for yourself.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] madsquabbles:

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] rushless:
Will test one at Best Buy.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Diogenes5:
I think the pen is the biggest issue. I listened to the android police broadcast and the guy who reviewed it was really harsh and at the same time was saying that if you need a pen, this is the best device available. If you are used to the ipad's usage flow and don't use the pen, the advantages are harder to discern. Android has a big learning curve and most of Samsung's native apps have a lot of bloat. The best note-taking app is Lecture Notes and is a very dense program with a big learning curve. If you don't know how to check XDA's thread on the app and ask the developer questions; it can be a very difficult program to pick up.

Part of the appeal of tablets is that they are pickup and use devices and the Note is not quite that type of device.

The aspect ratio is actually 16:10. A 4:3 is actually not as much of a draw back at this size. For productivity uses, a shape that more closely mimics the dimensions of paper is superior.

I agree with all the rest of your points though. I still think $550 is too much though because of the weaker app market for android tablets and the poorer-quality materials used. The Note 10.1 is still made of cheap plastic and the Ipad is brushed aluminum and sturdy gorilla glass.

The ipad costs more because it was first to market and has brand name loyalty. It's also more stable and easier to use than most android tablets too. While the advantages of the iphone have diminished greatly over time due to the fact that android phones do a LOT of things better (especially with the larger-sized screens and the widgets); these advantages haven't translated as much on the tablet side of things. The GPU, CPU on the ipad has been faster for the most part and the battery life stellar whereas 10" android tablets have been really hit or miss. The 3 best 10" tablets were the transformer infinity, note 10.1, and Nexus 10 and all had their own issues last year (the note with its already dated display).

The Note 10.1 2014 I think is the first 10" tablet to take the fight to the ipad on even or better terms. Of course, the poor reviews and price aren't helping. They really should've left the base model at $499. I'm sure the bill of materials of the Note 10.1 2014 must be the same as last year (around $200). The SOC is used by their Note 3 and S4 international variants. I don't know how much it costs for a good 2560x1600 screen with a wacom digitizer of the same resolution. Probably a lot more since last year they didn't bother to go higher than 720p. Also the 10" tablet market is shrinking due to the nexus 7. Maybe they want to milk early adopters as much as possible because they don't know if they'll get any return.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] SomeGuyDude:
I really hope 10" tabs don't fall by the wayside. I cannot stand 7" tabs. If you have a 4-5" phone and a 14-15" laptop, why wouldn't you want a 10" tab? A 7" tab is what I'd recommend to someone with a dumbphone. It's just too close to a phone size that having one would basically just be using my S3 with a bigger screen. At least on a full-size tab the user flow is different and you can ACTUALLY take advantage of the extra screen size.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Itchiee:
This. Its been accepted that Apple products will always be pricey and why their users feel like they have their own society.
