[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ha\/0c:
Ok i keep it straight..

Its my first Android device (The S4.)

Switching from my nokia c7 i've had this issue of alarm not going off when phone's off..

Actually i faced this problem that day when i had only 4% battery left (obviously it wasnt going to last that night)

So i turned off the phone and thought the ALARM would wake me up the next day..( as my nokia always did )

But to my surprise it didnt...

I did search for some solution on xda but no luck..

But then i saw the link of alarm working WITH PHONE OFF on the Rival HTC ONE..(http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2406083)

So i was wondering whether the devs would be able to make some app..(Or refer me if theres any as i couldnt find one..)

Thanks for your precious time..

Regards.

Me ;)

EDIT : So i was going though some more stuff on this matter and found something relevent..

Like there is a real time clock running on pc (that keeps time even when its off)..

Maybe HTC does use that to make its ONE power on ..

I think some files in the kernel can be edited for some progress on our s4 ( I am completely a noob and have no idea about kernels n all , i just read it somwhere)..

Maybe some real pro can help us out here, by studying htc one's files.. and try to make it work on some other 'SmartPhones'.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mbu10:
+1 to that plenty of time phone nearly dead and would love to do this if possible
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ha\/0c:
I guess no one's interested..:(
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tech_head:
The problem is that some 'smartphones" never really turn off.

My Blackberry Storm was one of those and my guess is that the previous phone you had didn't either.

If the phone is in deep sleep mode, then it can wake up.

If on the other hand, it's off, and I mean really off, there is nothing you can do.

The current crop of Android phones turn off; not go into a deep sleep.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ha\/0c:
Then how can HTC one do it..

I mean it may go to deep sleep..

But can't our s4 go to deep sleep..?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zoddex:
I am! Have not test it... I always love that feature on my Sony Ericssons And nokias. IPhone never had it. Would love to have the function here on the s4. But again I have not try it. I will tomorrow
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xtrustkillx:
When your screen is off your phone is in deep sleep. At least should be :) i dont know how they did it but when you turn off android phone its off. No alarm. Maybe they have modified fly mode and altered frequencies for cpu gpu etc to be just enough to ring alarm with almost zero power consumption. But again its not off. I miss that too. Its like where to **** is my charger or hope my alarm rings :)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ha\/0c:
With screen off battery goes down by more than 8-10%

I don't think that's deep sleep.. (in deep sleep battery shouldn't drain more than 2-3%..)

Yup if HTC can do that y cant Samsung.. Or other devs..

Thanks for the reply..
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ha\/0c:
Thanks for showing some concern.. :)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Can't be done or it would have been already (because it's such a desirable function).
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ha\/0c:
Read the first post dude..

HTC one has done it..

Thats y I referred it nd started this thread..
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
It's not a matter of firmware/software (which you clearly don't understand), it's a hardware thing. The hardware isn't capable of it.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ha\/0c:
You probably didn't read some of the replies on that thread..

It doesn't work on AOSP or other roms but only on SENSE rom..

So it is A MATTER of firmware./software..

So I think it can be achieved..
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xtrustkillx:
Check your apps. I have 4% over night data off. Once i broke power button on lg p990 so few days i had to live with no deep sleep to be able to turn screen on with volume buttons and man, drain was over 15%/hour.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ha\/0c:
Dude only 4%,Thats great for you..

Do you use any battery app.. Or its by default..?

I've removed one phone lock app which did save me about 7% drain but still cant get it below 8%..for ( 8-9 hours of sleep )

But i'd still love this alarm feature..
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zoddex:
Just test it and no, it does not work.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ha\/0c:
But it does on the HTC one..

Thats y I think there is some hope for our phone as well..
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zoddex:
Yes. Software-based. The question is that if a 3rd party app have access to the system to create an "auto on" or if is something that needs to be manage on the OS itself. Maybe with root access?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ha\/0c:
Maybe some tweaks in the kernel..

I read somewhere that HTC uses some real time alarm clock.. ( I ain't confirm about it though)

Haven't got any developer interested in it yet..

Lets see..

Hi all,

I have a QTek S100 and installed TomTom 5.21 (with a GlobalSaT BT 338) recently. "Everything" goes well untill I get the GPS signal. 2 seconds later the screen freezes to close TomTom 4 seconds afterwards.

What may be causing this? Is it because I had "MagicButton" installed and when I uninstalled it and did soft reset it somehow is kept in memory? How can I know this?

Help me please!!!

Thanks

DoubleW
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] oltp:
If MagicButton is still present there's something like mbutton.lnk in the \windows\startup folder, if not then it's not running. Memmaid should show it as a running process too.

I personally like MagicButton, though de-installed cause I belief it was responsible for seriously slowing down my magician. Now I kill everything manual again. Maybe I'll try sbp pocket plus once more.

Regards, M
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] vijay555:
oltp: have you considered or tried VJOkButt?

It's a tiny thing for closing programs.

V
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] DoubleW:
Thanks VJ. The file you mention is not there, and there is nothing in running programs, so I guess the cause for TomTom to close when bluetooth GPS signal is received is other.

DoubleW
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] vijay555:
DoubleW: have you checked your GPS signal? I haven't used tom tom for years, but ensure it's not that that's causing the problem. test it in another program or a GPS signal test program or something.

If Magic Button is open you should see the program in the normal way, it's not a messy program that leaves a lot of hidden files etc, so basically if it's not in \windows\start up it's unlikely to be Magic Button.

Are you running any other apps at the same time?

V
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] DoubleW:
Hi VJ,

Nop. Nothing is running. Unless it´s the phone that is doing something to close TomTom (and bluetooth also disconnects).

DoubleW
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] GKill:
Can you link me to this tool,pls. Or place it here. I want to test it!
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] oltp:
V,

pls, pls explain to me what I did to deserve such a treatment? Seems like you're hunting me with good advises these days. First about 'one pass', now you're 'VJOkButt'.

Thanks mate I'll give it a try. I just love these tiny handy programs.

@DoubleW,

Sometimes TomTom crashes when it's not able to access a map. Don't know it can't access it, cause a restart of TomTom or a soft-reset fixes the problem. Somehow you've got something different & more difficult to solve.

M

Use the man's search option or directly http://www.vijay555.com/vj/Releases/VJOkButt/VJOKButt.cab
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] vijay555:
GKill - where have you been my old friend? VJOkButt is old news now, I'm moving on to my next three releases very shortly :shock:

VJOkButt. Please read to the end of the thread (or start at the end?) and use version 0.5.

DoubleW: obviously try putting it into flight mode to verify the phone problem, but first ensure that your serial connection to the GPS receiver is sound and secure, to isolate if it's a hardware issue or software conflict.

oltp: :oops: I picked up my Magician around August last year. I thought, this needs a few tweaks. I started learning to program. And I just keep on looking and tweaking! So, if it helps me, and can help you, why not!? I like making programs other people find useful. I've spent years making little programs, there's almost nothing in my life that I haven't somehow "tweaked" (not always successfully!). So you benefit from my annoyances with the Phones! I hope :) Post in the VJOkButt thread if it works ok for you, and any ideas how to improve it.

Anyone have any issues with the CM 10.1 Zoe Rom for the Dinc2 when using Google Navigator?

The ROM is fantastic, but I just cant seem to keep the screen from moving around while using Google Nav. The only other time any weird video happens is when i play "Dice for Buddies", the homescreen becomes garbled for approximately 4 seconds, then the app loads up just fine. I'm assuming it's due to the lack of resources from the Single Core CPU, but the device runs "Clash of Clans" app without video issues and that app is very graphical compared to a simple Yahtzee clone.

Verizon Droid Incredible 2

Rooted

S-OFF

4EXT Recovery

Only running one desktop screen with folders and no widgets to minimize resource hogging.

Nova Launcher (Trebuchet is a resource killer)

Any ideas?

I have been using that rom since it came out it was a bit slow in the beginning then I flashed PurePerformance engine now its really snappy you should try that....
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SlackingVeteran:
hi everyone, i have recently got a HTC one, its rooted and also has custom recovery(TWRP) installed. its currently running stock android 4.2.2 firmware and today i have download the android 4.3 ota update. when i try to install the update it boots the TWRP recovery and i m unable to update. is there any way to update without losing my data, i know i have to flash the stock recover and again try to install the update but will this erase all my data(everything). i was using samsung galaxy s3, and its case there used to be chances to loose the data.. does same happens in HTC too. i don't wan't to lose my data, its about 23GB's..
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n1234d:
Your data shouldn't get wiped. No harm in making a backup though, just in case anything goes wrong. You'll just have to reflash twrp once you're done. Just out of curiosity, what's the software number of the update you got?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SlackingVeteran:
maybe the updates are older, because it was not updated from so long so, i thought to update. anyways the software no of update is 3.62.401.1.

do i need to lock bootloader too, to perform the update. and should i make backup from recovery? which backup method would u prefer... i don't want to lose anything..
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
just a quick word of caution, last time I flashed back a stock recovery (and accessed it, but didnt do anything in it), I was unpleasantly surprised that it wiped my entire internal storage

be safe, and backup your stuff to your PC

and no, you do not need to lock your bootloader.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SlackingVeteran:
well thanks a lot.. can i backup apps data too?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n1234d:
All the info needed to update is here http://www.htc1guru.com/2013/10/ota/

First flash the guru reset mentioned, then the OTA•

You could use titanium backup for all your apps and manually copy all the stuff from the internal sdcard to your pc. Making a nandroid won't really help, coz then you'll be restoring an older nandroid to a phone with a newer firmware, which doesn't work well. If you're completely stock right now, you could make a nandroid, and then after updating, if you want stuff to be like before, you could restore only your data partition. Works on Viper, not sure about stock.

---------- Post added at 11:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:29 PM ----------

*Stuff*= all your apps, settings etc from the old rom will be transferred to the new rom
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
I would :)

I use Titanium Backup Pro for that (there's also a free version), both require root though. if you need a solution without root, check out Helium; i've never tried it but it should also work.

for SMS and call logs, I use "SMS Backup & Restore" and "Call Logs Backup & Restore" by Ritesh Sahu, which work better than Titanium IMHO.

Then I put everything on my PC, and I'm good to go :)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n1234d:
Okay, maybe I confused you a bit here, lets do this step by step

1. Make a nandroid of your current rom(data partition) with twrp (make sure you copy this to your pc), backup all apps with titanium backup, copy all data from internal storage

2. Flash guru reset.

3. Flash OTA.

4. Flash twrp, get root

5. Make a nandroid of the new rom (just in case), and then restore only the "Data" partition from the nandroid backup. If it works, amazing. If not, restore all apps from titanium backup. Good luck :)

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SlackingVeteran:
Do i have to worry about anything else.. Things i will do now:

1. make a backup of all sd-card data

2. make a titanium backup of all apps

3. use Super Backup : SMS & Contacts to backup call logs, sms and contacts

4. make a nandroid backup of system

5. Flash the stock recovery

6. do an OTA update

I thing this much will do the update right? or is there anything to worry about?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n1234d:
Why I'm suggesting that you download the guru reset is that it'll ensure that you're completely stock before the OTA. having a rooted rom with all of those tweaks that anyone will generally install can cause many complications, so just to keep the process straightforward, rather do it. Leave it to download overnight ;) By "nandroid backup of system", do you mean a complete backup or only of the system partition? Because, you need to make a backup of your data partition, not system. A complete backup will also do.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SlackingVeteran:
this HTC one is only rooted and also has a custom recovery, others suggested only flashing stock recovery will do everything, without having a mess. and yes i have made a complete nandroid backup..
