Battery bug really p#sses me off, and it usually happens when I am in a hurry and need a fast small charge to end a day of hard phone use

I haven't really gotten the battery bug lately after .67 update. I don't reboot my phone that often though.

And I'm still experiencing screen flickering... We also need a better camera If u haven't noticed.
[Xperia Z General] roaringhere:
So far, that so called battery bug, I haven't experience it as I don't restart my phone unless I absolutely needs to...

I tried to restart it several times before to see if it is there on mine but I never saw it happening...

As for the camera, I haven't had any problem with the camera. I've taken several shots and it never disappoint me...

It's a phone camera, if I want a better image quality, I use my full frame Canon EOS 6D. It's all about expectation...

Battery life, I will let the picture speaks for itself, see attached...

Something that should be fixed is the amount of kernel wakelocks.. MSM_HSIC_HOST and RILJ KWL is real pain in the ass..
[Xperia Z General] roaringhere:
What is kernel wakelock? It about the phone not waking up or something else?
[Xperia Z General] chefnoob:
I recently got the battery bug. My phone crashed then when it rebooted, the battery % gained 21%. Problem is, my phone now drops from 28% to 3% instantly. It disappeared for a while but comes back once in a while.

Wow, 5 days battery life! Thats nice.

And only 8% screen consumption too. Is that from normal use or did you just forgot your phone at home?
[Xperia Z General] roaringhere:
Normal usage pattern! Calls, SMS, Facebook, Messenger, Viber, and Whatsapp mostly.

Only on WiFi, no Mobile data...

My Samsung with the same apps setup, barely last 20 hours on the same usage pattern...
[Xperia Z General] Hellscythe:
the opposite. the phone not going into a deepsleep state which causes huge battery drain
[Xperia Z General] roaringhere:
Ah! Ok! Thanks! That haven't happen to me yet!

Knock on wood! Must be from apps which prevents

the phone from going on deep sleep mode...
[Xperia Z General] dirtyjeff:
Sorry but comparing the camera on the XZ is poor when compared to other high end handsets so it has a poor camera for a smartphone. Especially in lowish light.

It doesn't bother me as well as like you I much prefer my SLR

Not true you just need to stop using superior auto in low light conditions.
[Xperia Z General] Kirkymole:
4.3 doesn't seem that much of an upgrade to be honest. I haven't got a battery bug or any screen flickers, my camera opens instantly in most cases and the only bug I can think of is the LED in Stamina mode. But I've found a way around that.
[Xperia Z General] Ereckson:
So you're basically content with what you have, but others aren't. Btw this topic is open for discussion on the upcoming update and what needs to be fixed, not for nay sayers. Just my opinion. I expect better from Sony and that's why I opened this topic.
[Xperia Z General] Kirkymole:
To which bug?

I wonder if Sony really wants to suprise us by updating the phone straight to 4.4 :D
[Xperia Z General] iDroid8:
Any word on 4.4 as well? KitKat is optimised to run on phones with as low as 512mb RAM, so does this mean lots of 2011/12 phones will be receiving that as well? Is it even possible to update straight to latest version? Xperia Z should be getting it being a an earlier flagship for the year, right? What has Sony's stance been for 2012?
[Xperia Z General] Radixtrator:
Biggest Problem of updating old Devices to newer OS Version is that Most CPU manufacturers will not provide the necessary drivers for newer OS'. But being amongst the Sony Flagships i think its no doubt the XZ will get 4.4. Even Sony cant ditch their flagship after only 2 updates
[Xperia Z General] coolrevi:
Looking at the android updates and previous experience with Sony, I don't think Sony will update older devices, however, custom Rom might be available as android after ics doesn't seem to change in many terms, those look a lot similar except for some kernel tweaks ans updates. So it won't be hard to get sources

And obviously kitkat for 2013 phones can surely be expected

[Xperia Z General] akoepke:
It does get a lot harder to keep reusing the binaries though. My wife has got the Xperia Acro S which isn't that old but Sony are most likely not going to be providing any updates past Android 4.1 for it. It doesn't help that Qualcomm has dropped support of their Snapdragon S3 CPU and will not release the updated kernel for Android 4.2.2. The binaries they have from Android 4.0.4 and 4.1 don't work 100% in 4.2 so most custom ROMs have some pretty major bugs and are quite unstable.

While there may not appear to be much different on the surface, there are significant differences in Android between each version and without support from the manufacturer or updated binaries it gets really tricky to release something which is even remotely stable.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] wedmiston:
Just got root and want to rid myself of bloatware, however, lots or random comments about how best to accomplish this. For many it seems to come down to gaining access to more space (favoring delete) vs ability to restore should there be an issue later (favoring freeze). Not sure where disable comes in between them.

Thoughts? Benefits of one over the other?

Lastly, if I install Hyperdrive does all the above become moot if it disappears?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] wedmiston:
Nothing?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Surge1223:
If you have the knowledge and ability to fix your phone if things go sour then delete. If not, freeze.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Eric214:
^^ This
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Crawshayi:
The space you gain is pretty minimal actually, but if you are the type of person who has tons of apps then perhaps that little bit will matter. I have all my bloat frozen and still have plenty of space left on internal memory, but then again I'm not the type of person with hundreds of apps. I'm pretty sure if you just Odin the stock image back to your phone all the bloat will be back, so it's not really the end of the line deleting it. It's really just up to you as to what's more convenient.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] wedmiston:
Good points Craw...I have maybe 60-70 apps and I'm not a big collector beyond that...too much and I can't even remember what they all do. I think I'll freeze for now per your suggestion. I have Titanium backup Pro - is that the best tool for it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bobarry:
I have over 400 apps, plenty of room left. Bloat ware is too small to be called bloat. Call them 'unused' ware. (Some of my 400 are probably in that group) :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Crawshayi:
Yeah I've been using Titanium backup for years with no problems. It's the best. Here is a list I found of bloatware that's safe to freeze, so this should help start you off: http://forums.androidcentral.com/verizon-samsung-galaxy-s4/287988-verizon-bloatware.html
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] wedmiston:
of course if i go with a custom ROM bloatware won't be ann issue, right?

is it correct that right now, the only recovery i can have with ME7 is safestrap? I tried CWM or Teamwin and got stuck on a "downloading - do not turn off traget" message, so I installed Safestrap over it and it appears to have gone fine

is it also true that I cannot install CM 10.1.X with safestrap, requiring me to go with something like Hyperdrive?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] azraell33:
Their is a list of compatible roms around here someplace. Hyperdrive is one of them. I have been using Hyperdrive version 9.1 with safestrap and its been running flawless for me. I did get a low disk space warning once but clearing cache fixed it and Its not been back since

---------- Post added at 10:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:06 PM ----------

Greenify is another option if you don't want to freeze apps. Greenify can put the app in hibernation so its not running in the background, but unlike titanium you can still use the app. Just another option.

Delete apps that ur never going to use(system apps) freeze apps that ur going to use very rarely but u need it. Or just tweak ur build.prop for background processes
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ARCANAAA:
Hi

So I'm trying to create a task which laucnhes an app on all the days of the week except friday.

I've been trying this with multiple options but none seem to work. This is what i think what should work but doesnt work for some reason.

So i made a task this way.

If %DAYW !~ Friday

Launch app

End If

Is there something wrong with this if so please tell me.

I think the problem is something with the format of the variable %DAYW, because when i just want to verify if the condition is met by doing this:

%DAYW ~ Friday i get a red bar on the right side. But i got no clue why it gets red because today is a friday...

Please help me out ;(
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darkened_Sky:
your variable does not know if it is friday or not ;)

and I do not really know why you want to make it so complicated

just make a new profile - select day - choose under days "week day" (not month day) and select the week days you want. then give this profile a task (in your case launch an app).

If you really want to make it with variables you need a profile which launches a task which changes your variable on friday into "friday" (and after friday into somehting else for example with an end task) so that your task is launched, but that would not really make sense :D
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ARCANAAA:
Well because im using it with nfc task launcher which only let me launch the tasks and not the prifles with the tasks... but if its true what u say then i dont get why the variable %dayw exists.. because it doesnt react on anthing unless i do what you just discribed..

Unable to change ringtone, the option crashes

Please advice..
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dark_Eyes_:
Well, if something is corrupted, you should try booting in recovery, and then wipe system data boot cache and dalvik cache and start from the ground up. If it's still there try again with a different rom. If it's still there... It's not a software issue...

GT-S7560M

First smartphone, new to this, wanted to root for some reason. Tried to root, maybe a month ago. I thought it failed, since I didn't get root access, but I find out now apparently the thing still worked because under kernel version it says

3.0.8-1195209

se.infra@SEP-93 #1

Tue Jan 29 19:19:47 KST 2013

Whatever that means.

So now, a month later, I started having 2 peoples with the phone:

1. Turning on wifi. It starts scanning, but it can't find anything at all, and continues scanning.

2. The Sleep of Death. When it goes to sleep, I hear 2 clicks, then it can't unsleep. I either have to hard reset it or take the battery out.

I tried to use Kies to revert it, but it doesnt fix anything, and is still the same version.

I tried using Odin with a "Stock Rom" downloaded from http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=2356681. Eventually, I ger a "Complete(write) operation failed". Which I then have to hard shut down, and emergency recover using Kies.

tl;dr Phone cant wifi or sleep, not sure what to try next.

Thanks for any help!

EDIT: got the odin to work by getting a newer version of odin. But changing to a stock rom didnt change the kernel version apparently. so I still have the 2 key problems.
