[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheFreediver:
I just updated the day before yesterday, unfortunately. The first dsy it was the same for me. But today seems to get back to normal. Android system is not draining anymore.

---------- Post added at 12:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:47 AM ----------

I think i only reboted a couple of times.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] filipecav:
hello, I had the same problem as you, after instal 4.4.2 update, i re-instal some app of my playstore.

I tried to install several ROMs and did not solve, the battery drain 10% / hour.

I installed the stock rom again and did root. This time I not reinstalled any app, the battery is losing 0.8% / hour, I will reinstall the applications and then monitoring to see what was draining the battery.

Sorry my bad (google tradutor) english.

Google service make drain battery faster than Screen. I turn off google search (google now). Now battery better use time and standby time. I don't know how is google now eat too much battery?.

Since the last release... many with different devices have now such problems.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] skny:
Tried to search the forums, but I keep getting a message the search function is down. I've browsed a bit anyway and searched on the interwebs, but not finding what I'm looking for.

I hate the phone screen colors; this includes everything under phone/groups/favorites/contacts.

I have Wanam Xposed - and in his screenshots in the Store, it shows a really nice set of colors for the dialer and contacts.

How would I change mine to that or something to my liking?

I saw there are some apps in the store I can download - but they install "along side" of the existing dialer, contacts, etc.

I just want to tweak the ones I have.

I also saw some items about "flashing" things after going into recovery mode - but the way I understand it - even though we're rooted on MJ7 now - there aren't any recovery programs available yet to use - so those flashing options are out, right?

Anyone have any suggestions? This is the last (yeah, right!) tweak I am wanting to do before feeling like my "new" S4 is "setup" the way I like it more or less...

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] th3bl3d:
you are correct, we can't "Flash" any custom roms yet, the bootloader has not been unlocked yet
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] skny:
So then the only option to modify the dialer & contacts screens are for me to dig into the files that make them up & edit as needed, or, install one of those custom dialer apps from the Store to run along side the existing dialer?

I guess I assumed there would be some tool or utility similar to Wanam that would allow us to "theme" things - similar to the Winterboard app on the iPhone. I know this isn't the iPhone...I'm learning . . .

When I'm on WiFi, my idle battery drain is much higher than when on LTE. I have compared BBS stats and absolutely nothing stands out as being the culprit.

Has anyone else noticed this? How do you all have your WiFi set up in settings?

I'm on a D800 (AT&T).
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smb209:
I've noticed this as well. BBS shows 3.5% drain per hour on WiFi and 2.7% per hour on LTE.

Running CM10.2 on VS-980 (VZW)
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crashN2u:
Similar numbers here. Hope someone can chime in why. Rught now I'm using LTE at home for better battery life.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WheresTrent:
Thankfully, T-Mobile here is a lot better than Sprint, so I don't use Wifi as much. If I'm downloading tables in Pinball Arcade or something more data intensive, I turn Wifi on and definitely notice a quicker drain.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vampyregaming:
hello there my names kyle and im new here but you can call me sangy, anyway i have joined the site to post this

i have had my play now for 6 months and i want ics and a new kernel, i heard lupus was the best one so i flashed lupus using fastboot and the correct rom. i have followed all steps correctly and the dam thing just boot loops after 1 min of booting unless i have my usb in my pc at which point the phone will stay on like it should without a single bootloop. so with a potentially bricked phone i flashed the stock firmware back v4.0.2.A.0.58 and re flashed a different kernel and rom still the same issue so i flashed back to stock again. if anyone can tell me how to solve this weird ass issue i will rate you +1 because im getting sick of having no cwm and incompatibilities with apps and i want to overclock

ps im planning on flashing doomkernel v14 hope this problem is gone but i know it will have the same issue.

my phones current state is this

xperia play r800i

stock kernel(2.6.32.9-perf) SEMCUser@SEMCHost#1

FW 4.0.2.A.0.58

baseband 64

android 2.3.4 ginger bread with root and unlocked boot loader

thats everything i know thanks for reading and helping in advance

edit: sorry if im not been precise but by boot loop i mean hot boot where the phone will run fine for 3 min then freeze and reboot on its own until i pull the battery or plug in usb in pc upon hard reset it even does this in kernel boot up
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrbtree98:
which lupus kernel, ics+gb v7 or lupus ics beta v12. have you tried flashing through flashtool because it always works for me and which ics rom as their are tons.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vampyregaming:
hello thanks for the quick reply

ive tryed the lupus ics+gb kernel latest version with the ics beta rom for xperia play and ive also tryed the lupus gb kernel latest version

and yes i have flash tool and all the drivers but a nice reccomendation on what to flash next based on my phones spec at the moment would be nice

also why am i the only person on the internet with this problem? ive heard of having 60+ apps on the sd to cuase hot booting but for me this is just out of the ordinare, particulary when ive whiped all the phone and flashed a new kernel.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bakisha:
With Lupus kernel, use R800i_4.0.2.A.0.79 firmware
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vampyregaming:
will be flashing that stock firmware now over my other one then put lupus gb+ics over the stock kernel

will let you know if it goes well and fixes this
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vampyregaming:
unfortunatly it did not fix it rom loads up, gets to the regular sony setup then freezes and hot boots. did this with lupus kernel ics+gb and the 4.0.A.0.79 firmware you linked me to. its either the kernel or my phone:confused:
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vampyregaming:
just tryed doomkernel v14 with your FW kernel still crashes and reboots, is there something i have to do in flashtool because

every kernel ive flashed yet has the same issue.

note i can get a catlog app whilst it is plugged in then unplug it and wait for the crash and send it to you and you can see where its going wrong with the kernel and tell me what to do

thanks for reading these updates and sorry its taking this long to find and fix a big bug :good:
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bakisha:
Did you tried any other ics/gb rom? Wipe your system/data from recovery before installing (and by installing i mean install from recovery with "install zip from sdcard")

Ps: maybe its stupid question, but is your sdcard full??? How much free space on it?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vampyregaming:
what recovery? this is an xperia play they dont have a recovery on stock kernels thats why im flashing one and no my sd card is not full

literally after i flash the kernal and boot up it will freeze and hot boot. the rom doesent factor in this. ive tryed 4 kernels so far the one that comes with cyanogen mod 9 and the 3 mentioned above

would flashtool logs be helpful if so tell me how to record them to a clipboard and you can see whats going on during the flash
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bakisha:
For Lupus kernel - when powering on, keep pressing volume down for clockworkmod recovery or volume up for TWRP recovery.

Flash ROM from recovery that match kernel. Lupus ICS/GB V7 is for ics/gb roms based on stock (Sony) roms. Read in ROM's thread which kernel is recommended

With flashtool you can only flash .img files and in Xperia Play case, that is ONLY ics beta rom (but almoust all kernels come in .img format - so Flashtool is used to flash kernel). From recovery you can flash every other rom that you can find (just make sure that kernel match rom or else you'll get kernel bootloop)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vampyregaming:
ok this will be crystal clear

i can flash the kernal but even when booting the kernal and going into recovery to even flash a rom it will freeze and hot boot

meaning i did everything correctly with flashtool to do the kernel and with just the kernel installed (no rom) it still freezes and hot boots

as soon as i can stop these kernels from freezing i can flash whatever ics or gb there is in recovery

note: what are your settings for your flashtool as i might be missing a setting also the info from flashtool says at startup to disable MTP for 2011 devices, would this be my problem?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bakisha:
what kernel are you trying to flash? Be specific!

What rom are you trying to flash?

Disconnect phone from PC after you flashed your rom (any one, first boot must be done while disconnected)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vampyregaming:
the kernel i would like mostly is the lupus kernel

i can flash every kernel no problems, its the fact that the kernel crashes etc i can also flash the correct rom using flashtool the same thing happens

the case im trying to make is that you first install the kernel then flash your rom in recovery then the extras like wifi modules to the kernel

the kernel (dosent matter which one i try for my device ) has the hot boot issue happen to it no matter what i do before i even have a chance to install the rom(again the correct rom stock or not).

and yes i know you have to wait for boot ups on new roms and kernels, this isnt the first time i have flashed roms as i have a galaxy tab 2 running cm10 for the most part.

again thanks for the quick replys but i think this will require more technical solutions or debugging with my phone or software.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FaiselW:
Install cwm on your phone. Search xparts on play store. Go into recovery and wipe system and wipe data and cache then turn off your phone. Open flashtool. Hold search while plugging your phone in and then flash kernel
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vampyregaming:
thank you for for saying that after 1 hour, will try that now and test the kernel for 20 - 5 min

if this works tell the kernel devs to make proper instructions on this
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vampyregaming:
did these exact instructions but the new xparts dosent work so luckily the community had the older version that works,

followed everything buy the book installed cwm using xparts after root went into recovery, wipe data factory reset, wipe cache partition and i even wiped the dalvik cache, flashed the lupus ics+gb kernel booted into the custom lupus recovery (scrolled through the menu a minute) then as expected kernel crash followed by hot boot

any other ideas?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bakisha:
Fully working steps:

-download eraser.zip in attachment, unpack it somewhere in pc

-Start flashtool, enter flash mode, hold back button on phone, connect to pc and flash .79 firmware. DO NOT BOOT INTO ROM!

-Disconnect phone and connect again in fastboot mode (hold search button while plugging it back)

-Flash Lupus ICS/Gb 480p or 720p kernel

-While still in fastboot mode, double-click file name "start.bat" from where you unpacked file in attachment.

-Disconnect phone, power on and keep pressing volume down untill you enter recovery

-Install rom and reboot
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vampyregaming:
will try this now hope this one works as were running out of solutions will post again in half hour
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vampyregaming:
followed the instructions to the word kernel still crashes in lupus recovery :mad:
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bakisha:
I don't know what you mean by "kernel still crashed in lupus recovery". In wich step you get that?

Try pressing volume up when powering on to enter twrp recovery
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orobin:
Hello,

I would like to port the i9500 miui v5 rom for i9505 ( dev seemed to be stopped for that rom/device, but ?I am not sure...)

even if I am developer, I don't know, today, how to fully configure my linux and how to build a complete rom.

so, I was thinking by starting to port something working, done for a device not so far like the i9500.

- do you think it is possible ? or there si too many difference hidden, between the 2 device ?

- if yes, is it "just" changing things like :

kernel, low level to communicate with radio ( i thing that i9500 don't have LTE or 4G), and ???

from an external view, except radio and processor all the other hardware item should be the same, no ?

thanks for any advice, or help.

Olivier
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdonanthony:
the base rom of MIUI V5 for i9500 is a stock rom while the i9505 MIUI port is based on CM i think so its indeed a BIG difference
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orobin:
thank for your feedback.

I don't have the same info. let me explain what I was understanding with reading in various forum :

I was thinking that:

miui rom is a fork of CM, with new launcher, some special apps, and some special parameter / mods. etc.

done by xiaomi to have a special package with its phone MI-2, MI-3 etc.

and I was thinking that miui i9500 rom was official rom, because it is done by a team member of miui dev,

instead of miui i9505 which is a port because done by a not officla dev, nor a dev of the miui team.

note : i9505 is not sold in China so the official dev team can have access easily only to i9500.

in this case, we have to do port for i9505, it will be never official rom.

so, conclusion :

are you sure that the i9500 is a rom which is not based on CM ?

in this case, you are right, I will have difficulties to do a port :(

thanks

Hello to everyone I have a 16 gig class 10 SD card I'm trying to figure out why it takes forever to load my photos from my SD card has anyone had this problem what did you do to resolve this issue?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] yengkl1765:
My personal experience. My note 2 got weird behavior started last week, no root and most updated tmobile. Turn on CPU load and I found sdcard process is keeping running all the time. And I could not correctly show note 2 storage detail, in the setting. It always show calculating, or could not show internal storage at all. After reset the phone from "Backup and reset", and reinstall everything, problem still the same. I trid factory reset from reboot into "BIOS" mode, reinstall everything again, the problem was gone. My theory is the internal flash got some error and need to format again to clear. FYI.

So I can get a Access point that works, I thought it would be helpful to post up your Model with a Yes or No after you have tried all the different settings as posted on the forum e.g. different channels and mixed mode etc.

This is for g Locked Varios only please not ones with flashed ROMs.

Please keep it simple Model YES or NO.

I've seen this issue detailed elsewhere but I can't remember exactly where - apparently for some reason the 3com sends back an IP v6 address when security is enabled, which the Wizard can't use.

So far I've used a cheapie Origo wireless router (conexant chipset) and a Netgear D834G (in mixed mode), my Wizard seems happy with both.

Hello everyone,

I have a Samsung GT-S5820 China mobile made running android 2.3.6, before, I have successfully rooted this device, and days later I update its baseband to a higher version using Odin. And now try to root it again, but here's an error.

I check the root checker and it states only busybox has installed.

I've googled every way of rooting any android device but sadly nothings work.

the question is.. How can I wipe data/cache/ etc that native recovery mode can perform. Because according to some chinese website, this phone has no recovery mode as it is a customized model of samsung device.

or does anyone here knows how to solve this problem? I'd be so thankful if you can help me. Thanks :)

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] LaRoach:
Google "android 4.3 bluetooth keyboard". Android 4.3 breaks most bluetooth keyboards and it appears Google has no desire to fix it with 4.4 out now. There are fixes out there but they involve rooting and voiding your warranty on this tablet. I think those of us who use bt keyboards and want a warranty will just have to wait for Samsung to roll out 4.4.

I almost returned the tablet over this but I get enough out of it that I'll wait. Hopefully they'll roll out 4.4 soon.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] BarryH_GEG:
I use my Samsung BT keyboard for hours on end and have never had a single issue with it. If BT is on, my N10.1-14 auto-connects when I turn on my BT keyboard and disables the onscreen keyboard. Samsung doesn't use Android's stock BT stack so any problems in generic Android wouldn't affect their devices. There are quite a few people here that aren't having issues with BT keyboards which would lead me to believe that it's the keyboards that some people are using that are causing issues. Interestingly, I had issues with the same keyboard I'm using now on my N10.1-12 where it would fight with the onscreen keyboard and randomly pop-up accented characters if I typed something like an "a" and left my finger on the key too long. It drove me crazy and I don't have any of those issues with the N10.1-14.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] GeorgeP:
It's not clear exactly what the problem is, but here are a couple of observations, from what I've noticed:

- In some cases, the problem may be related to conflicts with other apps installed. The problem became much less noticeable after i uninstalled MightyText. May be coincidence, but I definitely see a big improvement. I still get an occasional disconnect with the Logitech K810, at most once every half hour of so. When MightyText was installed, I got disconnected every couple minutes.

- I also have a Samsung BT keyboard. I very rarely get disconnects with the Samsung KB.

I'd like to know where it was published that Samsung isn't using the stock Android BT stack? I've tried numerous keyboards that work with my desktop, iphone, and original GN 10.1 without any issue whatsoever, but are useless with this tablet. All of the symptoms are consistent with what others have reported on android 4.3. Hard to imagine that being a coincidence. Glad you found one keyboard that works. We can add it to the (short) list of ones that do.
