[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
now why do you say that antutu is the worst? in reality, they are both just as bad. yes, geek bench is just as inaccurate.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CristianChavez:
So, do these results indicate any sort of actual real life increase or decrease in performance?

I apologise just would like for someone to clear this up for me.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
No. It is well known that bench marks mean nothing. They are easily fooled into giving higher scores with laggier performance

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kreindler:
yes and no.... benchmarks are irrelevant to a certain point. But overall - they offer a view on the performance - an s2 will get a lower score as an s3, or a nexus 4.. and that with cheating on benchmarks, i think the only one that was found was samsung... one more reason 4 me to hate them and their recycled plastic products
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sky0165:
You should be aware that the phone underclocks when reaches a certain temperature. Keep that in mind and re-do your benchmark. Put your phone somewhere cold, like granite, wait some minutes and do your benchmark.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsasuke:
Me too its just 15k in antutu.. And im getting some lags in games like FIFA 14 and a good battery drain it drains 7-10% in one night without use.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jatink007:
Agreed! Felt the same when i started using.

Any issues yet?

The only issue im having is that when i increase the volume while playing music and try to slide the volume bar on the screen, it doesnt work.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beetlejuiced:
Although i am new to nexus 4, ye i upgraded from nexus one just 1 week ago (nexus one lasted almost 4 years, what a dog !) i do have to say the kitkat update has made a significant negative impact in 3d games/applications.

The performance drop is obvious on say, minion rush. As i am a gamer in PCs for many years, since 1986, and a tv control news expert , i can easily feel the frames being near 25 and i can even tell if frames are down to 20 10 or 5.

I am pretty certain the frames in Minion Rush for example (heavier game i have atm in n4) have dropped at least 30% and i am pretty sure they were not way above 25 before kitkat. I estimate 10-15 fps max

Hello xda.I recently updated my Samsung Galaxy Music Duos GT-S6012 from ICS to JB 4.1.2 using Odin and an update package intended for another region(still counts as official update) and rooted it.I did this mainly because the TouchWiz UI was really laggy,mainly the dialpad and contacts.So i also installed Nova Launcher.The UI is now noticeably smooth apart from the uncommon lagging.But it seems I had to pay for smooth use with my battery life.Using the internet greatly reduces my battery life.Is there any remedy for it?Is there any good ROM or an efficient custom kernel out there for my device?
[Samsung Galaxy Music] bladeuser7:
You can try an app called Battery Calibration ,calibrate when your battery is 100%.I also use Deep Sleep Battery Saver,see if those apps help you,if not it may be specific rom problem
[Samsung Galaxy Music] Monty104b:
Is battery doctor helpful?I have not kept note of timings,but i think the app does help the charging process faster,but i can see a drop in my battery's endurance....below 30% the charge lasts the most and below 10% sometimes it's a countdown...What's your opinion of the app?
[Samsung Galaxy Music] Samarpan:
Install greenify

It's one of the best root apps and use it to hibernate unwanted apps as long as you're not using them.

Juice defender ultimate is also worth a try... But I would recommend greenify.

Hi Monty Bhai..

Sorry to know about your problems . Well, I have the same phone and updated it to jelly bean before someday. I'm not experiencing any battery problem .

Well, I googled but didn't get any rom and kernal ..

Hmm. Some tips for you. It may help .

1. Reduce the brightness of

your display.

2. Set your screen timeout

to the shortest length

possible.

3. Turn off the wireless and bluetooth

feature when not

needed .

4. Turn off the GPS when not needed .

5. Do not leave applications

running when you don't

need them .

and lagging problem .. Hmm . Uninstall some apps which you don't need . more phone space= more smoother experience .

Hope it helps.

Get either Battery Doctor, like mentioned previously, or JuiceDefender. Battery Doctor also adds a circle battery as a notification in case you don't have one flashed or a custom ROM/Xposed module that has one.

[Sony Smartwatch] janocool:
Hi, I just have a problem with my 5 day old sw2, I overstimate the waterprooftness of the device and take it to the pool, everithing was fine but in home I can see a weird spot on the screen in the button side, was small next day the spot get bigger and the retroilumination was gone, I turn the watch off and let it dry for a few days, the spot still remains I turn it on and the retroilumination is back, but I want to clean the screen and clean all the board from water before it can get more damage. The big question, anyone have attempt to open the watch? cant find any guide, dont know if start for the screen with a heat gun or in the back with some sputgers, the watch is still turn off. Please if you have any suggest let me know thanks.

If not will post the first tear down guide :) hope with success, or it will be a destroy guide. :confused:
[Sony Smartwatch] janocool:
Ok I did it, heres how to do it:

First apply some head gun in the sides of the watch, be careful dont use too much heat.

Press from the back of the device gently, your will see that is one solid block inside a frame that hold the strap.

To separate the screen to see the board and battery, apply head gun DONT USE TOO MUCH HEAT, (if you do that the adhesive form the digitizer will melt and can leave a really ugly spot) after that with a plastic spudger work around the frame gently. Behind the screen is a flex cable be careful separate it for board to fully lift the screen from the boddy of the watch.

The battery connectors are soldered to the board and have very thin connectors be careful.

I cant remove the board mostly for the NFC chip that was glued in the botton of the device.

The screen is fused so YOU CANT replace just the digitizer or just the LCD.

I cant find any repacement part of the LCD, I thing I have a really nice strap with a circuit board :) If you have a not working watch and the screen is OK please PM I want to purchse a part, thanks

I'm trying to work out how to access the a bluetooth serial port for a GPS reciever and cant seem to find any reliable resources.

The device is an XDAIIi with WM2003

I have some Java Knowledge, but not much J2ME.

I also have very limited C# Knowledge and have MS Visual Studio .NET 1.1

I need to simply find a way of getting a string of NMEA GPS (or any!) data from the device via the allready connected serial port.

[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheGoldrocker:
The fastest way to silence or unsilence the phone is by pushing one of the volume buttons once, and tapping the ringer/vibrate button on the top-right. If the screen is off, you should wake the device up first.

An app from the store, no. But there is one clock app named TimeMe, which you have to sideload using your developer account and Application Deployment from the WP8 SDK, (use this one if you are on Windows 7). You can install the store version, but this one only updates each 40 minutes.

I'm on Blue Donkey v1.1 ROM and i have a Rooted k2_ul, S-OFF via Moonshine with Super CID and HBOOT 2.00.4444

I want to update to 4.2.2.

I'm going to flash my stock img through recovery and then I will try to get the update through the system update.

Is this possible, or I will have face any problems getting 4.2.2?

Also do I have to root my device again after the update or root will remain?

If root will not remain, is 4.2.2 rootable for our device?
[HTC One SV] xpirt:
Also change CID to one of the RUU available and than check for updates.

xpirt
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
I don't think that you need to change CID, if you already have SuperCID.

Downgrade the hboot, flash the ICS RUU and check/apply the updates.

Root will not remain in this way (all is deleted, so make a backup), but you can easily unlock your bootloader at htcdev.com, flash recovery and flash Superuser.zip.

On 4.2.2 root is no problem.

Many updated their phone this way already.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TaintedByte:
Same here, I have been running it alongside my Nexus 4 (alternating days, same apps, settings, etc.). Nexus 4 is still on Jellybean, Nexus 5 is obviously on KitKat.

The issue might just be with KitKat because I don't have the issue at all with the Nexus 4. My next step will be to flash KitKat on my N4 and see if the issue starts happening there as well.

Obviously there is going to be some sort of battery drain when Bluetooth is enabled but there is a HUGE difference between the drain and wakelocks on N4 & Jellybean and N5 & KitKat. Hopefully it's software only.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uh60james:
Anybody figured anything out with this? I am getting bluesleep and msm_serial_hs_dma wakelocks. I use a Pebble also.

Edit: Saw there was a thread for this on the Pebble forum and they apparently deleted it because I had to view a cached version.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TaintedByte:
Unfortunately, my Nexus 4 is out of commission for the time being but I did get some (not very conclusive) data that showed the issue is not preset with the N4 & Jellybean.

However, I found more information regarding the subject. I found this post on the pebble message boards that seems to confirm the issue lies mostly with the Pebble watch. I tested this by disconnecting my watch but leaving bluetooth on (both with it connected to nothing and on a half an hour drive with my N5 connected to my car). The wakelock is nowhere near as crazy as it is with the Pebble.

Doing more research on the bluesleep wakelock in general yielded a couple of results here in XDA ranging from missing binaries to kernel bugs. The fact that it's only happening to the Pebble is interesting however.

I wonder how other Bluetooth "smart" devices do with the Nexus 5. I don't own any other ones but if someone else does that would prove an interesting test.

[Samsung Galaxy Gear] cvondra:
Not sure if I'm the only idiot user who has attempted to sideload an app and been frustrated with an error I would receive.

Using ADB Install I would get: Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_OLDER_SDK]

In Wondershare it would fail to install as well with a similar message next to the install line in red of Older SDK.

When trying to install it through Root Explorer it would kick back a parse error right from the Gear Device.

Explanation: Inside each APK is a AndroidManifext.xml file. That file holds the instructions/parameters for the install of the application. One such delimiter is the MINIMUM version of Android to which it will install. (its actually the SDK version but for simplicity sake we will call it the Android Version because the SDK revision holds the info on what Android Versions it supports.) In my case it was Maps.apk. When downloading the APK using Real APK Leacher I was using my google login with my S4 ID. My S4 was running Android 4.3. The play store spit back a file compatible with my device. When I attempted to load it on my Gear which runs Android 4.2.2 it would puke/fail. Scratching my head I searched like a ***** only to find explanations/definitions/work arounds for developers in articles they would understand. Low and behold I was able to find a nut and figure it out.

Resolution: Use an older APK that is compatible with the version of Android I was running. In this case Maps 7.1 was compatible with 4.2.2 so I scabbed that APK and it installed flawlessly. I wanted to post this because I searched like hell and spent quite a bit of time trying to figure this issue out and wanted to save some other poor sap some time.

Anyway I hope this help someone.
