Hi,

I've put a UK 'three' USIM into my O2 Exec and it works. I get 750 minutes a month on three and would like to use these minutes to dialup to my RAS server through the normal modem.

Is this possible?

I select Make New Connection - In the select modem field I select 'Cellular Line' and continue. My phone line doesn't even ring.

Is there something I'm missing?

Thanks in advance :-)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xharos:
I would like to know how you did it. Flashing a factory image, using another rom / kernel, tweaking X setting... Maybe this help people, including me, as I am having really bad battery life :rolleyes:
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spitefulcheerio:
Are you connected to WiFi most of the time? I had the really bad battery drain issue while connected to WiFi after the 4.4.2 update. I lost about 30% of charge after 4ish hours while connected. Currently I'm at 92% after 3 hours
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aooga:
What battery drain?

Stock everything and I'm getting great battery. Location on high accuracy and location history off.

2.5 hrs screen on time.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xharos:
Please don't turn this into ANOTHER "hey look at my battery" thread. The point of this is to know how people that had terrible battery life fixed it. If you always had, good for you but you have like over 9000 threads already to post that

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jj14:
\When you say that you have bad battery life, it would certainly help if you provided more details - screen print of battery usage, which apps are using more battery, screen on time, and betterbatteryplus wakelock details if possible.

The 'solution' will depend on what is draining your battery. It also depends on what your expectations are - you are not going to get 10 hours of screen on time (exaggeration, but I hope you understand what I am getting at) - so, if you can quantitatively express what you are expecting, and what you are getting, folks may be able to help you figure out how to address the issue.

A "bad battery life" statement doesn't really help much :)

[MENTION=3688559]aooga[/MENTION]'s post kinda outlines (part of) what to provide - graph of battery usage. Also get the screen print before that one that shows the usage by app/process. Include the other details that I mentioned above. The more details you provide, better the odds are that somebody may be able to help.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xharos:
Yep but that was not my problem, it hapenned with wifi and 3G

You are right. These are the battery stats:

Anyway, I flashed cataclysm + franco at it SEEMS better. Will comment tomorrow.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PsychDrummer:
Have you had the same results when you didn't play Asphalt 8? In my experience Asphalt 8 drains the battery immensely. So if you played asphalt 8 for 30 min or so it would drain your battery about 15-20% or so. Even though it says it used only 6% it's a lot more because of the screen and the processing/graphics it has to use for the game.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xharos:
I only played it for 6 minutes lol..

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spitefulcheerio:
You've been playing games and had your screen on for a lot of time...that's gonna drain the battery very quickly on a phone with a large 1080p screen and a quad core processor
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PsychDrummer:
Hmm that is a bit weird then. On a normal day of use without watching videos or playing games I'm usually at around 90% after 3-4 hours. So I figured if you played Asphalt for like 20 min or so it would explain the battery. Most battery drains are shown as "Android OS" or "Google Play Services" and that doesn't seem to be the case so I'm not sure. Whats your brightness on? Oh I actually didn't notice it showed the stats for Asphalt 8. For some reason (and I can be wrong) but it would show I played for 11 min for example but I would have really played for more. Also, would you mind showing your signal stats? It could also be your bad signal although I think that would be shown as "cell standy"
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xharos:
Don't worry, as I said cataclysm ROM + franco kernel seems to have fixed it. It was on automatic anyway

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ehcool:
Well Here are some top tips that i tried and pretty much help a lot

- Since i Live in the UK and we dont have large scale LTE, Make sure the phone isnt searching for it

- Running ART, I know its not much but it helped a bit

-Turn off google Now, I know many people like this but i dont really use it, At the very least turn off hotword detection in the settings

- Dont use Auto Brightness, its easy just find a brightness setting that you feel good with and keep it there

- Use Tasker, I use this for a lot of things but setup a profile in tasker that turns off things like mobile data and wifi in the hours when your going to be sleeping, This will reduce standby time loss, Tested it last night and i went to bed at 50% when i woke up 8+ hours later the phone was at 48%

- Change account syncing settings, This also reduces standby time loss make sure your phone is checking only every half an hour or so for email

From this morning up until like half an hour ago i was on about 48% - 17% with medium use and it lasted about 6-7 hours Ill post pictures when i go through a while day with these settings tomorrow.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xharos:
Thank you for your advice:laugh:

My phone signal is green the 99% of the time as I live in the main city of Tenerife. I disabled 4G as we don't have it here yet.

I really recommend cataclysm + franco to anyone with battery issues. It's definitely fixed for me. Will post battery stats this night or tomorrow

Bug Reports:

Reporting bugs is important But reporting them properly is KEY.

If you think youve came across something that is not working as desired [bug] folow these steps to report.

1. RE-flash your rom cleanly and do not install gapps or restore anything. This will confirm the bug is in the rom and not a compatibility issue with your data or chosen gapps.

2. A logcat is very important for me to trouble shoot the bug ..

3 pull a logcat by connecting your device to the computer and open terminal then type adb logcat hit enter.

4 navigate to your bug and recreate it while connected and watch for a fatal exception.

5 copy the text apd use paste bin to share it with me.. after youve saved it copy the link and post it in the thread. Please ensure youve captured the fatal exception in the paste otherwise it will do no good.
[HTC One S] $droyd$:
This one too
[HTC One S] Rapier:
Looks like more a TwistedDog not "Kat" by the logo :)

Flashed, booted...now I'm going through initial setup wizard. Will come back with feedback. Thanks droyd
[HTC One S] $droyd$:
LOL its a fox logo not a cat.. Kat is for kitkat not kitty cat.. Im sure youll enjoy it. keep in mind its somewhat basic now but you know itll blow up with features quick.. But its the most stable rom ive flashed on this one s in a long time.
[HTC One S] Rapier:
I'm looking forward to it.

Droyd, I have a huge request if it is possible. For the future builds please include THIS patch also. Currently there is only one ROM that includes it and that's BeanStalk (I've asked phoenixita to include it when he builds it). Without it, my car-kit is useless.

ROM is working smooth and fine. Even if you say it has only "basic" things, it has alot already. The bugs I've found are the general KitKat bugs affecting almost all ROMs. First the nasty backlight issue during calls. Then I found that in Settings - Volume even if you tick to have separate ringing/notification volumes this is not preserved after you go away from that screen. You just have to tick/un-tick the option again when you're back there. But as I said, they're present in the other KitKat ROMs also
[HTC One S] $droyd$:
Consider it done .. It'll be the first thing I do and I'll build again just for you.. I'll link you a build as soon as I'm done .. Maybe today or tomorrow.
[HTC One S] Rapier:
Thanks droyd. Don't have to hurry, take your time. When it'll be done, it'll be done
[HTC One S] $droyd$:
By the way when you switch the sounds to link or unlink you are selecting OK at the bottom right? I ask cause I'm not getting that issue at all.. I select OK and it sticks.

What is the backlight issue..?
[HTC One S] Rapier:
I've pressed OK :( I do like this: go into the menu, by default there is only one slider for ringtone&notifications. Below is the checkbox. I un-tick it to have separate sliders and there is appearing the slider for notifications. I'm adjusting a lower volume for them, then press OK. If I go again into that menu, what is strange is that the checkbox remains un checked but the second slider for notifications is gone (not shown). The only one remaining is labeled only "ringtone" this time but I have to tick/un-tick again the option to make the second slider appear. On the other hand, on the expandable volume panel (brought up by vol buttons), there are 2 different sliders. It's only a visual issue, in fact the volumes remain as they were set...just the notification slider seems to vanish

The backlight issue...is the most anoying bug present for now in ALL KitKat ROMs. I'll explain. Make a phone call (to a toll free number for ex) then take the phone away from your ear. The screen is lit right? OK, now cover the proximity sensor with the hand or finger, screen will go blank. Normal behavior...BUT... Sometimes the screen comes up after you take the hand of the sensor but remain very very dark (suggest you make the test in a dark room to notice). As the screen comes up but not the backlight of it. Make several tries with the hand covering the sensor, keep it covered several seconds...finally you'll see it.

One more thing...the bug is not happening if the phone is charging (connected via USB or power socket). It's happening only when is not connected to PC. I hope I've explained well
[HTC One S] $droyd$:
Hmm OK I'll check into it a little.
[HTC One S] $droyd$:
Lol OK yeah that's a cm bug but since all ville ROMs are based on cm its present in them as well.. I believe its a kernel issue since I don't have it on the mako.. Another one I'll have to dig for..
[HTC One S] $droyd$:
Your patched ROM is cooking now..

Hey $droid$, great to see you're back in action! I'm on Hboot 2.16 right now, but I will be flashing a RUU as soon as possible to test this! :thumbup:
[HTC One S] RENEGAD3:
I have paid for nova launcher prime but i like this stock launcher or i would use nova
[HTC One S] Rapier:
This is a feature related to the launcher not the ROM itself. This is how Google designed the launcher. Droyd cannot do that through the ROMs settings. You have 2 options : either switch to another launcher that had this function (like the Nova, Apex or whatever you want) but you'll lose the Google hot word integration and Google Now in your home screen OR you install an app from Play Store that hide apss from your existing launcher. I don't know it's name but there is one for sure as I saw a discussion regarding this on CM11 or Beanstalk threads. This way you can keep GEL and have some apps hidden

Has this rom got volume rocker wakeup ???

[HTC One S] Rapier:
Yes

Oh and I almost forgot... droyd, please please please. do something with that startup bootanimation it's horrific :) :) :). Such ROM surely deserves a much better one. That "thing" looks like a colored worm. Yeah, I know, it's twisting but still...

I was joking, this should be your last concern, there are other better things to do and include in the ROM. I just thought that there are plenty of bootanimations over the net and you might find a better one.
[HTC One S] RENEGAD3:
Just delete bootanimation.Zip from system/media on your phone to get the android boot anim. Just says android with silver flash. Neat and simple
[HTC One S] Rapier:
Yes, I know that...but a good ROM deserves a nice animation. On my top list now, are the ones from Liquid and Slim...simple, beautiful. I even like the CM11 one. So Twisted deserves a good one too...just that I'm not good at it to make one myself
[HTC One S] phoenixita:
Could you show it to me? i've not time to flash! Anyway i will try to make a new one if i have sometime! If droyd wants!
[HTC One S] foeti:
Would also get rid of xposed modules and all I need is a ROM integrated dpi setting...

Would be awesome!

:) I don't have anything to show...I just use one of the animations from THIS thread

The current one is this one except it's rotated counterclockwise by 90.

To Droyd, I am also more than happy to make a custom boot animation. I've been trying to make as many as I can and you are free to use whatever I have. I also added your odyssey boot animation to my thread as it was truly one of my favourites.

I vote for an alternative boot animation too! The current one looks like a worm lol.

Testing now...so far so good. I just love being able to reboot successfully without getting stuck in bootloop!

Quick question - can the softkeys be hidden? _**EDIT** found the answer to this...
[HTC One S] Frankyg:
Hey, I've installed 8sms as an alternative SMS/MMS Client. I've also tried to restore my MMS messages using titanium backup. It appears to restore ok, but when I open 8sms, the old sms flash up on screen for a fraction of a second and then disappear. I've tried restoring, then immediately rebooting, tried clearing the 8sms cache and restore...all with the same result. Have also used sms backup+ to restore, same result. Just can't seem to get my old sms back! Any suggestions? Apart from this issue - it's terrific (I realize this probably isn't a ROM issue) Will keep testing and report back....

Regards
[HTC One S] dave il barbaro:
it was the same for me
[HTC One S] derkleinebroicher:
I don`t know, if that's the reason, but I have always had problems with titanium backup and the pre installed superuser. I have switched to SuperSu. Now TB works properly again, so maybe you want to try this.

[HTC One S] $droyd$:
I would love to have an exclusive boot anni for this rom but if its going to make it in youll have to put forth some effort to make it nice.. Link me personally if its a beaut ill add it and give credit in the op. I personally like the one thats in the rom now so if im going to change it itll have to be a branded animation.. You know what i mean like one that has the rom name in it.. I like somewhat simple ones but it has to have motion.. Like i said please link me personally in pm.. Thanks for the attempted contribution.
[HTC One S] caspboy:
so when I flash this, the 2.16 bootloader flashes with it? Because I'm on hboot 2.15.
[HTC One S] asdfasdfvful:
I have the logo added already. I'll add the rom name and your name as well once I can
[HTC One S] foeti:
No, of course not. No custom Rom except a ruu offers you another hboot Version.

This one is for 2.15....
[HTC One S] caspboy:
thanks. I seen in the op it said "added hboot 2.16", wasn't sure if he meant support or the actual thing:silly: Sorry for being a noob
[HTC One S] asdfasdfvful:
Maybe it wasn't the best idea to use a photo editor, but I can't seem to get rid of the colors without making the animation look bad... Now theres a line right in the middle. Working on part 0 now.

All this was taken by the amazing boot animation of [MENTION=3004928]optmsprim2[/MENTION]

I'm making a new one since I just realized Droyd wanted something simple
[HTC One S] bombina:
Personally, I am not a big fan of this crazy looking cat logo. Simple boot animations like the Nexus ones look professional and smart. If it is this crazy cat for the boot animation, it looks to childish and silly. The current boot animation looks like a worm going through an acid trip. Once again, this is a personal opinion!

Here is an example of a cool one: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/50433279/bootanimation.zip Res: 480x800
[HTC One S] asdfasdfvful:
What does everyone think about this one? It has nothing to do with the cat because I couldn't fine a good animation for it. If it's okay and it works I'll send it to droyd. I'm still looking for another animation to go with "twistedkat" though.

Preview (I guess it's too big to show on xda)

If I ever decide to colorize it it will be in that folder as well
[HTC One S] Mooncalled:
I like the one with the twisted Kat logo better.

This one seems disjointed. You got the swooshy thing then it goes into a snow globe.

Now if you got the swooshy thing that faded out then the Twisted Kat logo and picture faded in...that would be kick ass..

My very first zip had this in the beginning lol

Adding the twistedkat gif that I made is really easy. It's just clear that it wasn't properly edited as there is a big line in the middle. I'll add it now and rezip

Edit Uploading. This one has a faster fps than the previous one. I'll try to find a different gif to add to the end because that line really bugs me

really weird bug i've just encountered when trying to setup v1.1. a circle appears on the screen which is the only place you can click. so when it comes to typing in password for wifi, you have to move that over each character on the kb to type it in... going to reflash and see if it goes away

i checked to see if something had randomly enabled in dev options (bearing in mind this came up at the 1st point of setup) and there's nothing enabled.

the really bizarre thing is now if i reflash it, it's still there!
[HTC One S] RENEGAD3:
BUG - little silly bug that i have just spotted my app drawer keeps randomly changing the amount of rows. I currently hve 7 rows of apps per page, earlyer i had 5. Its wierd because ive not touched any settings, i use the phone casualy as a normaly daily phone so i have no idea why this is happening lol

Ps earlyer i noticed i wasnt getting any notification tones playing when i received a text message, rebooted and it was normal again

Its a dirty flash bug I've had it .. You'll need to do a clean install.

You have to love the battery life in low usage. Go to your wifi settings and uncheck the "always search for wifi" option

As always, Droyd made the best out of Android.

I did a clean flash, but app folders on homescreen don't retain apps after reboots. Some get missing. Any idea why?
[HTC One S] Frankyg:
About 45 mins screen time. I don't use Fb at all, and very limited G+. That's what was most surprising, I really didn't do that much with the phone all day and on my previous rom (Codename Lungo which was a 4.3 rom) I was getting close to 16 or 17 hrs uptime, with 1.5 to 2 hours screentime. Anyway, I've changed the wifi settings as was mentioned and will check it out tomorrow, see if it's any better.

Has anyone tried out the art runtime instead of dalvik, if any issues or not
[HTC One S] Rapier:
Yes we've tried. Everything is fine but I didn't stay too long on ART since Xposed is not compatible with it and I needed more than a test runtime. The benefits could be great for the future but right now, I couldn't notice a major difference

Gotcha. Good to know
