Development thread was closed for a little time to clean up some annoying posts with battery drain bugz. Guys it's all about your settings, kernel, apps etc. My device working about 3 days, I'm using only calls, sms, mobile internet, and little gaming. So stop posting about "ohmygod my battery died in 2 hours".

1. Flash ROM with full wipe

2. Flash Kernel (I am recommend Stock Kernel) You can use Titanium Kiss or Charm Kiss

3. Flash ZIP (Supercharger Kill). (in DEVDB Downloads, it shows about 7000 downloads of ROM, and 250 Downloads of this ZIP)

4. Give your device some time to adapt ROM

5. Test without installed apps

And then post your results about battery life.
[HTC One V] GuestK0049:
[MENTION=4812035]tonyskyfall[/MENTION], your ROM is the best. I love it. It's working really smooth and I don't have any battery drain issue. Not installed the battery drain zip and my battery lasts 2 days. Thumbs up for your amazing work. :D:)
[HTC One V] pqul:
Hye, a silly question maybe :o, but can someone give me link to the thread where i can download stock kernel?
[HTC One V] sathishd:
Great rom

Best rom for one v. I have been using this rom and there is no lag and i love the animations. I didn't have any battery drain issues and battery lasts more than 2 days under normal use. Thanks for this great rom :good:
[HTC One V] ohn42:
You can use the boot.img in the zip-file of the ROM
[HTC One V] berk3741:
It can be faster maybe. But i am waiting for 4.4. Can Tonyskyfall make a 4.4 rom for us?:D
[HTC One V] GuestK0049:
I used to change my skin from ignorance to breathless by "rockstar" for the sake of transparency. In Ignorance v4, widgets and app folders get transparent but not the dock. how to make the dock transparent. I don't wanna loose the amazing sense of this rom.
[HTC One V] tonyryan:
You want transparent dock in breathless or ignorance skin? Send me file, i'll make it :p
[HTC One V] red de0392:
Y M i geeting so heavy audio out 3 wakelock...

I ve turned off all the sounds in settings...:confused:
[HTC One V] Cr3sc3nt:
This is a Charm kernel issue. Also you get horrible sound quality through premium head/earphones. But on titanium and stock sound quality is okay.

[HTC One V] red de0392:
But I'm on stock right now...

Is there any way to fix it?

Losing battery unnecessarily
[HTC One V] GuestK0049:
wow Tony! This is what i'm asking. If you can make ignorance transparent then I won't need any other skin for transparency. It will be a dream come true :) :D

P.S. which file you need ? skin file of ignorance ?

My battery life for today....
[HTC One V] GuestK0049:
[MENTION=5173195]red de0392[/MENTION]

My battery stats of today. Used the phone pretty much with WiFi and text and calls.

Using titanium kiss kernel with ignorance v4.
[HTC One V] GocaS6:
Nice1.

Can i get a direct link for Titanium kernel?

Also i noticed that there's no Supercharger kill in Downloads? Does that means it's no longer necessary?

I'm tryin to flash by the book :o
[HTC One V] red de0392:
That's awesome mahn...

I don't know what's wrong with my battery...

Is it cuz of charger ? I use htc's wall adapter but samsung's cable wire...

Never overcharged my battery...battery status is good....but still it discharges way to quickly

Do you use htc's cable ?
[HTC One V] GuestK0049:
You can download latest titanium kiss kernel by searching in the forum. Plus I have not flashed supercharger kill. I like my one V supercharged. Multi tasking. :)

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andrew_j:
Hi guys. I have browsed the forum but haven't noticed any post complaining about screen problems (beside one about yellowish screen temperature).

I was bloody excited hearing my package was delivered only to get hugely disappointed by 3 hot pixels on its screen. Two blue and one bright red almost in the centre of the screen.

Does anybody else found this problem? Or it's just me being unlucky?

Do you have any experience with google regarding to replacements? Is it stress less process or I will have to be prepared for lots of stress?

If you had device replaced was the new unit fault free?

Sorry but I am former Samsung customer (8 Galaxy note8 replaced due to dead pixels) I almost gave up hope for dead/hot pixels free displays :(
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Higadeb:
I've got 7 dead pixels on my Nexus 5. Going to phone them in a little, I'll keep you updated.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andrew_j:
Be patient. I have spent almost 15 min listening to classic music on hold. They have asked for evidences -so I have sent them photos and still waiting for their decision.

Will keep you posted.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crooke356:
I was on the phone less than 10 minutes. Exchange an email with a couple pics attached, showing the defect on my device. Then, 30 minutes later, had another reply with all the information needed to receive a replacement. And keep the current device until the replacement arrives. For me, great service. Defect is like a leak under the front camera. Where it should be all black, there is a little hole that leaks light from the display. Odd.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lownita:
I have no dead pixels but yellowish screen temp on low brightness. But this will settle with time, it is the glue that needs to dry out. It was the same with my n4.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stefan0x53:
One dead pixel

I have one dead pixel, almost in the center of the screen. However, at this resolution it's hard to notice, I think I'll keep it, I don't want to wait for an replacement.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andrew_j:
Shoot why it takes them sooooo long in my case? Still nothing. I have received e-mail from them. Replied with some photos and still no reply it's been already 4 hours :( and you had it all sorted well below 1 hour mark :(
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Higadeb:
Just got off the phone with Google. I got a "high call volume" warning but was only on hold for 7 minutes. My guy was very helpful and said they'll send out a replacement which *should* be with my by the end of the week. I keep my current Nexus 5 until then & send it back in packaging the new one comes in. Just waiting on a confirmation email now that this is what's happening.

Edit: Email received & replacement ordered. Fairly painless process so far! (touch wood)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vertron:
I have one tiny green stuck pixel just under the status bar. It's only visible on dark backgrounds with high brightness so it doesn't bother me.

On previous experiences all replacement handsets I've had have always been worse. If it doesn't bother me I'm not going to risk getting one with a fault that does bother me.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dudeist Priest:
9 dead/hot pixels here, mostly in the corners of the screen. Called Google and was told to restore my device (I was on it at the time). They told me they'd email me the instructions and for me to call them back. I had already restored from Bootloader and I don't think my guy understood the difference between software issues and hardware.

Anyhow, new one is on the way, hopefully this one doesn't have any issues because I really like the phone.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrBelter:
Its not faulty, Google are only changing them out of goodwill, all companies have dead/stuck pixel polices and the higher the resolution the more dead/stuck pixels are allowable before the panel is deemed faulty.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andrew_j:
I tend to disagree with you. Yes companies have their policies regarding to dead pixels and how they will treat the claims but do not forget about customers rights. For me dead or faulty pixel on the screen is not acceptable and if I feel unhappy I can (within 15 days) return purchased device. Of course if will do it this would be lose/lose situation as I will not have new shiny phone nor google my money. Thus they are happy to replace it (as long as it is as new and they will be able to put new stickers on it and sell it again - maybe next customer will not be as picky as me). So it is not really about "good will" as Google is not a non-profit organisation it's well calculated. On the other hand I would not expect such "good will" to replace the device after 15 days tho. But who knows maybe I am wrong :)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stefan0x53:
I took it back to the store and I have just received a replacement, it's perfect. Nice improvements on the OS also.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jj14:
You received a replacement from a Sprint store?? Or from the play store (if so, that is quick!!)

and what improvements on the OS? (same OS version, isn't it?) :confused:
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stefan0x53:
I have brought it from a local store here in Romania.

I'm referring to the 4.4 OS improvements.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jj14:
Sweet! The phone isn't available locally here in the US (yet), hence the confusion :)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1EyedMonky:
I have got one hot pixel.

I called and they are charging me again then crediting it after the replacement arrives.

Waited 2 hours for the email I didn't get

and had to call in to start the entire process over again,

Still not too bad though not a lot of wait time on the phone.

Varies on who you're speaking with
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] renton82:
Same situation here, i have 1 blu pixel i call and after the operator told me i have to wait an email for start the rma process, wait for 6 hours but email still not arrived, tomorrow i must call again!!!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jparity:
Just got my nexus 5 from the UPS guy, and I Immediately noticed a cluster (2-3) of dead pixels at the lower left corner. Then I came across this forum and ran the app that checks for dead pixels, and found one more dead pixel on the upper left region of the screen. I am amazed at how you guys notice single dead pixels. I can never see mine during normal usage, but the cluster on the lower left is definitely noticeable if I purposely look for it.

Still considering if I should request for a replacement. How did you guys convince the tech support that you are indeed seeing dead pixels? Never noticed any dead pixels with my Nexus 4. Maybe my N4 also has dead pixels that I just never noticed.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] james11417:
I have no clusters, but one dead pixel in top left and one in bottom left corners. They are barely noticeable until you squint like two inches from the screen. Anyone know if there's a time limit for reporting dead pixels? I want to RMA eventually but not with the long backorder.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andrew_j:
As I said before us would expect it to be 15 days counting from receiving the package.

Still did any of you received the replacement or got it shipped? Mine is still pending :(
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eastpac:
Options

My phone has one stuck pixel that is blue in top half of the screen. Just trying to get opinions to see if it is worth returning, The options are to:

1.Suck it up, deal with it and keep the phone, it is barely noticeable unless you actively look really closely.

2. Get a refund, buyers remorse period of 15 days

3. Ask for replacement phone, puts a hold on the credit card for amount of the phone until new one is received. (Can do this within 1 year)

The risk is that the new replacement phone turns out to have other problems. I might wait a month or two before I ask for a replacement if LG/Google made changes to the phone/later ones are more reliable stable.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dnlsmy:
I have the exact same issue, down to the location and color of the pixel! I also have some weird warping on the bottom of the display as well. The glass seems dented.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ...mARiO³:
I have a dead blue pixel on the left-center of the screen too.

I also think I will wait about two months to ask a replacement, maybe LG will release a rev.11 like they did with Nexus 4.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Il.Socio:
Unfortunately, that app doesn't support yet the full screen...

So it can't be used to detect dead-pixels which are located at the bottom of the screen.

I suggest you using this one, instead, which supports full-screen and can be used to detect dead-pixels and fix stuck-pixels:

search Perfect Pixel Checker on Google Play, because the board doesn't let me post links yet.

Just received the replacement yesterday: same blu pixel on black screen. Just ask for refound, and all 2 phone are delivered to ups for coming back to Google. It's unaceptable.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andrew_j:
I understand your frustration. I had replaced 8 Samsung note 8 (5purchased and 3 checked in the shops before purchase) all returned due to dead pixels. I though I will continue having this "luck" with Nexus. But (touch the wood and do all other anti bad charm spells) my replacement seems to be fine. (Saying this I shall never ever look too close at the screen again :) ).

If I were you I would go for third replacement (third time lucky they say) it's really nice device (if the screen is flawless). I lost my temper only at 8th device (note8) when shop refuses any further replacements.

Good luck mate.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jackpf:
I've got two stuck white pixels which i can't seem to get rid of. They're not really that noticeable but I paid a lot of money for this device so I'm going to RMA until I get one without dead pixels. It's only fair really.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vertron:
Mine has a faint yellow tint at the bottom cm of the display. Invisible mostly as the software buttons normally covers that part of the screen.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rogem_kk:
So, mine developed a couple of faint green stuck pixels. I honestly am not going to do anything about it as it is not an issue for me and at this price point I can't expect top notch display panels.

I'll live with it, ha ha.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LoRd_LyKoS:
Mine appeared several stuck green pixels (you can only see them in bright black screen) on the top left...I think they are tuck pixels than dead (I can not understant why I can only see them in black screen).

I think it can be solving using some apps...is it true?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] birdie:
Let me chime in.

Here's my problem - 10-11 completely dead pixels in a row.

My previous topic got zero attention but I'm getting used to the fact that xda-developers is a very awkward forum.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andrew_j:
Hi ApTeM

I don't think that XDA is an awkward forum as you said. But I assume its your personal opinion.

But what exactly did you expect from people? In post above you did not put any questions?

You have dead pixels. Too bad some of us had them too. And as described we got replacements from Google. We wrote about our experiences with the replacement process to which you may refer to gain some picture.

From the link you have sent I saw that somebody on the other forum gave you the same advice. Contact Google for replacement. It is a hardware fault.

So what else do you expect from us?

Rest Regards

Confused colleague from awkward forum.

Awkward because there are thousands of topics with no replies. My original post asked if it was really a defect, and no one replied as no one could definitely say yes or no. "Should I RMA it?" seemed to escape your attention.

Sometimes quite profound questions have very shallow answers but topics quickly leave everyone's attention by moving onto latter pages.

Thank you for your reply.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bblzd:
None of the apps claim to fix dead pixels. Pixels stuck with certain colors can fix themselves over time or even develop more problems. Maybe flashing colors on it can expedite that process but its not likely. I imagine most ppl who think they worked for them simply misidentified a piece if dust.

I read each post of this thread, but i think that my problem is slightly different. My sister has this phone and she got a green dead pixel on middle screen it can be seen by a distance. Not necessary to be so close. But I'm sure that , that pixel was not there when the phone was on 4.4. But when she OTA it to 4.4.2 that dead pixel came on screen. So can it be a OTA issue? She has not dropped or anything like that.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sharp-Razr:
Dead or hot pixels do not have anything to do with the OTA update . A perfectly good display can get hot/dead pixels one day. This is unpredictable. These are display manufacturing defects.

My 1st handset had hot pixels and I had to RMA it. The replacement is thankfully fine, and yes, it has been updated to 4.2.2.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atishey23:
So this hot or dead pixel bug is present in LCD screens only? Coz I have never seen a dead pixel in superimposed display. I have used s plus, galaxy s advance, and galaxy nexus. All I have used more than year...none of them have dead pixels till now.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sharp-Razr:
Please understand a pixel problem is not a 'bug', as a software related issue, but a hardware manufacturing defect. Any type of display whether LCD, IPS LCD, or AMOLED (used in various devices like mobiles, tablets, laptop screens, PC monitors etc.) can develop display problems.

I never had issues with many handsets and other devices since the late 1990s. The Nx5 was the 1st to get this problem.

That means that if you have only 1 dead pixel or less than 6 it will not be repaired under warranty?

I am sorry but i do not understand what are your intentions in replying to 2 years old post. What you saying is I should shut up and use an app to fix dead pixels or light leaks? In all my geek career I saw no app able to fix hardware issue. All the apps do is to quickly change the display colours hoping it will "heal" the pixel. Good luck with that. What is the success rate? 0.01%?

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WasifSal:
Hey guys.. I had a bad experience with an SIII once. I'm a student so with all the careful investments and all i managed to buy the SIII when it was out... With Android 4.0.4 on it.. It was the best thing at that time... But... I once rooted it... And.. After rooting it, it did went fine but it shut down on me once :/ and never turned on! Since then I am afraid of losing this other SIII i bought.

The warranty of this is over so I think its a good thing to flash a ROM and harness its true potential.. But.. U know having that loss is big!

I wanna know a few things:

1. Will rooting cause any problems for the phone? After or before it... After ROMs and all..

2. If (say) it does end up in a problem can I recover it? Because at that time you couldnt recover it. (Stupid 4.0.4 Sudden Death).

Thanks! :)
