[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nocturnal86:
Does the hotword detection of google now always on or NFC checked on or LTE vs HSAP+ (while connected to wifi or not) or leaving wifi on even when not connected (like when out and about and not at home) affect the battery in a significant way?

Sorry if this is a stupid question I just wanted to clarify because Ive heard various conflicting things on some of these.

Thanks for any help to this question and if anyone has tested any of these and can give there feedback I'm sure it would be greatly appreciated!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dr Tone:
LTE if you don't have a great signal will use significantly more battery then HSPA.

Hot word detection on will use a little battery but should only do so when the screen is on.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheOneChristo:
All of those things will use more battery. I've turned off NFC and hotword detection because I don't really use them. To be honest, I still couldn't tell you if it makes a significant difference, but I'm happy with battery life.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FuMMoD:
Location settings off, NFC Off, LTE off when not needed, connect to wifi whenever possible, Lux auto brightness app, Battery doctor app, and install a custom kernel. That should help you out a lot with battery life.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshnichols189:
NFC and hotword detection make such a negligible effect on battery life.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nocturnal86:
I want location settings on with google now I dont want to cripple my phone completely or have to be switching things on and off constantly. But I will probably be switching off LTE for HSPA cause I seem to be getting a better signal and NFC off cause I dont really use it. I already have franco installed which I know will only improve in time!

How about Lux is it a low power process running in the background and do the savings outweigh that? and do you have the free or premium version?

My bought a N5 32G black in google play USA. but in my country, the CDMA carrier named "China Telecom" does not support N5. when i insert the uim card, i only got a emergency signal.

I think maybe the MEID(ESN) is the problem. So, is there any way to open N5 diag mode and i can modify the MEID? thanks a lot!

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cimboms:
I have a Samsung Galaxy SII (GT-I9100) and it was on t-mobile and had t-mobile software and logo appearing at the start up. I wanted to remove it so I downloaded odin and stock rom 4.0.3 and flashed it using odin and everything went pretty well and phone started but at the start i got the error "unfortunately the process.android.process.acore has stopped" I factory resetted the phone and it was gone and the phone worked ok. After I checked for an update and there was a software update so I done this update but this time through the phone connecting wireless to my home network and it was stuck while installing Foto Package and showed an error. I pressed few buttons power and home button and so on and it carried on installing and installed it correctly now I have the android version 4.0.4 on the phone (Phone is working). My question is I checked an update again and there is a new update: PDA:LSW / PHONE:MS2 / CSC:LS5 (XEU).

Shall I risk and try to upgrade it or just dont take the risk and leave it like this. And if you recommend me to upgrade please advice me what would be the best way to do it? Through phone, odin or kies... Thank you for reading and sorry if im in the wrong thread for this.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theunderling:
Just do it via odin,and factory reset.You get the firmware from sammobile.Just fill in the boxes and choose xeu(which is unbranded) opposed to any listings for tmobile.

And make sure 4.0.4 is gone before factory reset,just in case lol.

[HTC Sensation] 1edgaras:
Hi,

In all the roms I'm facing camera problems.

In albinoman,lungo,sultan roms camera goes dark , or has some glitches in panorama mode when rotating screen.

In revelation 1.0.3 camera works sometimes, but usually it shows error can't open camera. It is the same with apps from google play. Cant open camera.

With ics roms,its ok.

Firmware 3.32 Soff

Hboot 1.27

Radio 11.22.3504.07_M
[HTC Sensation] 1edgaras:
Updated info. please help :confused:

Flashed 3.33 firmware.

Problem still exists
[HTC Sensation] padvou:
Same happens after flashing stock RUU?
[HTC Sensation] 1edgaras:
With sense roms I'm not having this problem. I see this only with AOSP. In custom AOSP you can rotate camera while in panorama, so it's more buggy.

When using 10.2 straight from cyanogenmod.org camera has glitches when touching screen in panorama.

In 10.1 only when switching between photo mode and panorama mode.

I think it's a driver issue, but why im the only person who faces it.

With sense roms camera works well.
[HTC Sensation] 1edgaras:
Anyway to put sense camera, example from revelation rom to albino rom, or from the same revelation to stock cyanogenmod rom.?
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
i think it is impossible
[HTC Sensation] NextGenGTR:
No problem with Sense Roms

I only had problems with aosp roms where t would work and then in one day the front camera would stop working and cause the camera app to crash when switching to the front cam so now im using sense roms which work and also take fast shots!
[HTC Sensation] dannyadaszek:
I have sometimes problem with camera too. But mine camera works fine just flash is something not like that... When i use shot with flash, sometimes my phone is rebooting. I don't know what's the reason, because I had this same problem on other roms... Any idea for soultion?

Probably its your battery I have same problem like you my battery was old and sometimes I have reboot with flash I changed and the problem disappeared :)

Hi guys, I have a nook hd+ and it has the black screen issue. Since warranty is available,I want to replace my tab. Problem is that it has Cyanogen mode 10.1.3 and the factory reset portion has cwm installed. I know how to restore the stock, but I don't know how to restore the stock factory reset portion. Can anybody help me..? thanks..
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
I assume by stock factory reset portion you mean restoring stock recovery. Restoring the stock ROM with the CWM restore option does not restore the stock recovery. To do that you need to go to my HD/HD+ CWM thread linked in my signature and read item 5. I have a zip there to restore stock recovery.

If u have backuped up through CWM then u can restore. Otherwise u cant. I recommend you to download custom rom for ur device.. And put it in ur sd card by Card reader. Then put sd card back in the device and flash that rom via CWM. Then only your device will run.

Recording video in loud environments still sounds awful - I'm on a Nexus5 with Android 4.4

I recorded this a few days ago: http://youtu.be/qIJck4btcTU

I had an iPhone4, a few years ago. Recording concerts was a pleasure with this device, it produced perfect audio quality in loud environments. I think it's a complete joke that Android has no API for microphone gain settings. There's a bug: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=9913 but it still has the status "New". Crazy.

Another user pointed out:http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=27325732&postcount=23

Does anyone has an idea of how to deal with this? Perhaps a modded kernel which supports control over the gain level? :confused:

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pottsy:
Just for anyone else suffering a horrific battery issue....

I would take a few photos a day. My battery would die in a few hours, with the culprit being "Google Play Services", which when drilled down showed the camera as the high battery user.

Furthermore, I was getting poor GSM data rates, with the phone seemingly unable to find the nearest transmitter (it would jump to full bars for a few seconds, then lock on to a 1 bar cell and constantly change between H and 3G). While all this was happening, the Nexus 5 got hot.

Now do this:

Settings>Location>Mode>Device Only

Make sure it's in "Device Only" mode. Logic says that this is the wrong setting, but now I can go a couple of days no problem, I lose 3% overnight, the camera uses next to no juice and "Google Play Services" doesn't even make it onto the list. :laugh: :cool:
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boykomac:
If you're in an area with good signal I would say you have an issue with the data/gsm module and your solution is not proper. Try launching maps - it will suggest enabling mobile/wifi location for better location service.

Mine is set to high accuracy and my battery life is pretty good.

Verify if you're having this issue on multiple locations or only on certain places?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dlog:
Yes, logic says it is the wrong setting because it is. "Device Only" will only use GPS. "Low Accuracy" will only use googles location approximation via cell towers and wifi signals. "High Accuracy" will use both.

Once you set it to "Device Only" you robbed your phone from being able to track your location (for instance for google now). So naturally you don't have that much battery drain any more when taking pictures. I'm 100% sure that you are tagging your photos with your geo location, so every time you take a picture, the google play service determins your position.

To clarify: GPS isn't on all the time and is only activated when an app requests the phones position. The google location stuff is on all the time and will be active even when the phone is idling.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pottsy:
I appreciate that.

I have tried with the correct settings, and it seems to leave "Google Play Services" using between 30% and 60% of my battery. Things get really bad when I am in a weak GSM signal location - with the phone getting really quite hot. Chrome triggers this, but then just having the phone awake seems to get it going.

Watching Google Maps in a position where I get no GPS signal (so monitoring the position calculated from the GSM network) I can see my location jumping from mast to mast every 10 seconds or so.

I realise that turning it off is "wrong", but it is not as wrong as my battery dying at 4pm, and until it is fixed it will have to remain off. Google Now is useless since I am not in the US, and Geo Location on the camera is switched off.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gavin-phelan:
I 2nd that pottsy i disabled my yesterday and got my 1st good day with battery
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dlog:
Not saying that you're giving a bad tip. It's just not the fix for all battery problems with the n5, but only for the specific case that an app is "location hungry".
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paddington:
He says it fixes the problem everyone is having with Google Play Services draining ~50% of their battery. It's a documented problem that isn't just all over the forums and G+, but Android Police even put out a story about it. Maybe the title to the thread is misleading, but the OP's initial post clearly states his problem and the solution he found for his problem.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dlog:
Google search is the launcher app used for the stock rom on the nexus 5. Maybe you are using your home button a bit too often? :D
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hotleadsingerguy:
What others are saying, though, is that this fix only fixes the symptom...not the actual issue. If you get battery drain because of location services, turn off location services in the apps that are draining it heavily.

Example: He takes pictures during the day and notices battery drain. Disable Geo-Tagging on pictures, and see what effect it has. If you turn the location services to "Device Only" you're going to have issues actually making use of location services (think Maps, Navigation, Google Now, Facebook, etc...that use location). Anytime you use these services it'll have to activate the GPS module to get a location...which can take 10-20 seconds, if you have clear access to the sky. For reference: the GPS module uses a lot more battery than the triangulation done by the cell towers...so actively using any app that uses location services will actually use more battery.

The other thing to try and disabling background processes. Close applications you're not using, and in the developer menu limit how many applications can be running in the background at a time. It could be that your sync services or other applications are constantly checking for location. Many of those applications will refuse to use the hardware GPS and instead rely on the triangulation services, which is why you might be seeing this battery longevity increase.

Synopsis: Setting it to Device-Only is a bad idea; instead, try to find the root of the problem.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pottsy:
I have found the problem.

It's not the apps making the calls, it's the location service itself. And I will specifically disagree on one point: using GPS only uses a lot less battery than cell location via a broken OS.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psommerfeld:
Another solution ...

I think there's a better solution ... Go to settings>apps, and for every app that uses Google Play Services (google search, google now, maps, etc), clear the their data. Google Play Services went from 2nd biggest hog (after the display) to way down on the list. Maybe there's only one app that needs to have its data cleared to fix it, dunno I just cleared them all.

[HTC Droid DNA] Kagedin:
Alright, so I flashed a new rom, but for some reason it wouldn't boot up, it wouldn't get past the white htc screen. So when I went into recovery to flash a different rom somehow my sdcard was formatted, so I have nothing on my sdcard to flash and my phone won't boot up so I can't access USB storage. Also because it was a new rom, I wasn't able to enable usb debugging so adb isn't working. I can still use fastboot and I can still access CWM but I can't find a way to push a file onto my phone. I tried sideloading but adb isn't working, and I went into mounts and storage and tried "mount usb storage" and it doesn't mount. I tried reinstalling the HTC drivers to get adb working but no luck there. Please not sure what else to try from here, any help would be greatly appreciated.
[HTC Droid DNA] t1gartist:
two methods that will quickly fix issue you are having

method one

seeing as you say sdcard hopefully that means otg cable and sdcard reader or usb storage device. if this is the case proceed to put rom of choice on usb or sdcard and flash via that way and hope your s-off or you will need to flash kernel boot.img in fastboot and modules in recovery..

method 2.

go into fastboot <<< already there

enter fastboot oem relock <<<< locks your bootloader again

run RUU <<< puts you back at 1.15 og firmware

then update to latest firmware <<< will be 2.07 i believe

moonshine your device and enjoy the benefits of custom roms <<< happy ever after
[HTC Droid DNA] Kagedin:
Thank you so much for the information!

I managed to solve the issue by flashing TWRP via fastboot, once I flashed TWRP, the drivers installed automatically and adb was able to see my device, afterwards I was able to push a ROM to my sdcard via adb, flashed it in recovery and bam phones working again.
[HTC Droid DNA] t1gartist:
that works too good deal and happy flashing... btw for me TWRP i always had better lucky with also CWM is notorious for formating all of your data and being as the DNA has no true sdcard its a deal breaker for me in my experiences so enjoy
