[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] TMaLuST:
I received the battery 5 days ago and I am on my 3rd cycle. I will make the test on friday or on saturday, as soon as I reach 5 full charge/discharge cycles.

My first impression about this MPJ is that it isn't 4500 mAh, but it's lasting a bit more than the stock one. I don't know if it's a placebo effect and only the real stress test will say the truth. But I have to be honest: when I tried the MBuyNow battery I wasn't experiencing any better result, while now I feel that my phone is lasting a bit more.

Check this topic on friday / saturday for an update, we might have a surprise and a winner! :D
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] smeddy:
For three years I've used MPJ as my default battery (N1 and N3) and I've always found them to give me, say, 10 to 20% more than stock. After all this time, I don't think it's placebo. I notice the difference even when I forget which battery I have in.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] TMaLuST:
Hello everybody!

Sorry for the delay but I had pretty busy days in the last two weeks.

I just finished the test with the MPJ battery, so let me explain what I did.

I turned air conditioning on in order to reach aprox. 20°, which was the temperature back in January when I tested the previous batteries.

Moreover I followed all the rules I used in my previous tests: same app to fast discharge, same conditions, same networks, same place ecc..

The only thing that has changed is that I am on X-Note rom, but on stock kernel.

Before writing the results, I have to say that the battery discharged to 5%, than I removed it from the phone in order to weight it. When I powered the phone on, the battery indicator showed a 15% battery remaining. I decided to run the test to discharge the battery from 15% to 5% once again. This behaviour happened another time and the battery was at 8% so I ran the test again. This means that I have 3 results, 2 partials and 1 total.

4) MPJ battery after 17/20 charge/discharge cycles:

- I received 19 whatsapp messages, 2 gmail Notifications and 18 messages on facebook;

- Battery drained from 100% to 5% in 2h 11m and 52s.

- Battery drained from 15% to 5% in 11m and 13s.

- Battery drained from 8% to 5% in 3m and 13s.

If you consider the total time, the battery lasted 2h 26m and 18s. If you want to consider only the first discharge the battery lasted 2h 11m and 52s. If we do a simple calculus, we can say that if 95% of the battery lasts 131 minutes, then 10% of the battery should last aprox. 13 min, which is not far from the 11m duration that the battery had in the second discharge.

In conclusion, this kind of test is not really precise in terms of mAh but I think that it can give us a way to compare these batteries with each other.The MPJ battery does not clearly have 1300 (40%) mAh more than the stock battery, but 8/15% seems to be a reasonable amount.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] dash REZA:
4500 what screen on time?

3900 what screen on time?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] TMaLuST:
The test is conducted with the screen powered on. The results in terms of time that you see are exactly the time that the screen as been on. From the first post you can see that the MBuyNow reached 2h and 11m, the stock battery 2h and 17m and the MPJ 2 h and 26m.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] perissatto:
This is my MPJ usage :

Currently using with amazing Echoe ROM.

Edit: just my print at this moment.

This is a good battery at least for me.

I had been using it for 5 months.

Since you asked which other batteries people would like you to test, I'd definitely like to see how the mugen battery performs. Any chance of you reviewing that one?

Now I'm deciding if I should go with mpj or mbuynow..
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Chillout2010:
I just ordered the mpj extended. I'll update when I have it. I purchased an s5 for my wife that came with an mjp extended and it seems to work well so I'm hoping to have similar luck with my note 3.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Chillout2010:
I got my battery last night. I've only had the chance to drain it out. The half charge it came shipped with lasted longer then my year old oem battery. I'm going to recharge it to full and use it for a few days before I comment more on it. How do I know if I got the nfc version? I ordered and was charged for it but I don't see it written on the outside of the battery.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Chillout2010:
This is my 3rd day with this battery. I streamed music for almost the whole day either from online or milk music. Also lots of texts and clashing. I'm pretty happy with it so far.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] UponFirstListen:
What was screen on time?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Chillout2010:
I didn't take note to that yesterday. But this is today. Killed it much faster today though.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] UponFirstListen:
Thanks. Much better than I what I get now. Guess it is time for a new one.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Chillout2010:
This is a typical work day for me. Usually is be in yellow by now. I'm very happy with this. Now I can hear my music while at the gym after work. ..
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] yeashoot:
I am a fitness user and started to notice serious battery drain on my Note 3 since weeks ago. Should I upgrade to new phone or pick up extended life battery? I don’t am not sure if it can solve my problem but interested in the mpj battery.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ibrahim.Rahman:
I ran antutu benchmark and the phone automatically rebooted. I ran it again, and got forced closed. Now It won't boot up. On charging it, the charging symbol appears followed by the red notification led. On booting while charging, I can go uptill the google screen but not further or bootloader mode. Please help!

It is rooted with cwm and faux kernel and Dalvik and Bionic optimized libs
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] username8611:
In all honesty, you were probably right there, but you just didn't let it charge enough. I had a rlod the other day, I must've done it good this time because I had to let it charge for almost an hour before it would power back up. I can't remember though, if it actually chargers when the red light is lit, or if you need to unplug it and plug it back in so that it's plugged in with no red light, no power on, or anything. Let it charge while of with the red light on for about 20 mins. Then fiddle with it, unplugging and plugging back in, until you can get it to stay plugged in without powering it up or the red light coming on. Let it charge for about 20 mins like this too. Unplug it. Turn it on. Plug it back in immediately after seeing the google logo, let it finish booting and finish charging and you should be good. I've had around 5 - 7 rlod (mostly all my fault) and this method has worked every single time. I've never opened or rma'd my phone.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ibrahim.Rahman:
I'll try this tomorrow as it's 1 30 am here and I have a test tomorrow. Let's hope it works..

Btw I should mention, when I connected it to my pc, i got 'installing device driver' message with 'unidentified device' I mean is the phone already on? (although fastboot devices or adb devices doesn't show anything)

Thanks!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] opssemnik:
Sheep.... If its instaling drivrr on rlod then 49% of your phone being stuck at QHUSB_DLOAD mode. Good luck
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ibrahim.Rahman:
What's QHUSB_DLOAD mode?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] username8611:
If the phone is completely powered off, your computer shouldn't even know when you plug it in, it shouldn't pop up with any messages at all. What your getting sounds a bit like the message people get when their phone is hard bricked, except reading from your first post, you havent done anything at all to even get close to a hard brick. Try holding your power button for 30 seconds. A real 30 seconds, count it out. When I turn my phone back on from the rlod (after doing all my rlod steps in the previous post), sometimes I have to hold the power button for a god awful long time, it has to be close to a full minute. Your phone might be frozen on some lower level (locked up bootloader maybe?) and might require holding the power button that long as well.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ibrahim.Rahman:
Thanks! I'll do it tomorrow and inform you about any progress..

Goddnight...

So I couldn't sleep. Out of nowhere, idk how I am now in bootloader mode. Should I restart of power off or what?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Berrydroidcafe:
Wish I had a four letter response. :eek::D Was this after letting the phone charge? I would power off and let it charge until you wake up. :) (four letter word was in reference to QLOD and RLOD like the average layperson would know what that means! :rolleyes::cool:)

So nothing worked.. I guess the only way left is to open the phone up.. Wanted to avoid doing that at all costs :/
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ripped.animal:
Well i have been writing about this. In short you have to disconect the battery, and try to boot it again.fist try to hold the volume down when conecting the charger, it will restart bootloader , select to start. f that doesnt work, you have to disconect the battery, and wrtie an factory image ( nexus 4 occam ) . Try to boot the phone first when disconecting the battery, before writing the factory img. GL

This thread was from months ago. Sorry I haven't been much active on xda lately and kinda forgot to provide an update: I connected the phone to so dodgy Chinese charger with strange current rating (don't remember correctly) and the red light started blinking really fast.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] alovingmommyof3:
I got my Galaxy s4 as an insurance replacement from eSecuritel. Originally I had the S3 from my carrier and it didn't have this issue. I found out the phone had root from a backup app I had that detected it. I downloaded a root checker and verified I have root access. I had an issue with the phone and was told to go into recovery mode. There I found the original recovery mode had been replaced by one from Team Win, so I think I have a custom rom too? My backup app won't work because I must be missing something that didn't get put on from whoever did this. Mybackup pro is what I use. It won't reinstall my apps. Long story.

Basically I want to unroot and go back to a stock rom. I don't do this often enough to completely know what I am doing. I have rooted a phone before. My acer iconia tablet is rooted and has a custom rom. When I do this I will lose my ability to back up app data with mybackup pro. But samsung will support my phone.

The odd thing is, this happened with two different brand new, unopened Galaxy S4s. How can this be? Does the insurance company get them from some strange manufacturing facility? I chatted with Samsung and the representative knows nothing about Samsung doing this.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] serio22:
Download stock 4.3 firmware and then flash through Odin. That'll get you back to fully stock
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] joemon871:
Yeah it's no big deal . Like the other person said, just flash back to stock using odin. Here's a link to the stock ROM if you haven't done it already. Just search stock galaxy s4 rom on google and it should be on the galaxyroot page

Hope that helped :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] xdapowerapps:
If you are on 4.2.2 or (anything below 4.3), if you want completely stock, get TriangleAway to remove the flash counter (i.e., how many times the phone has had a custom rom flashed), then Odin flash the stock. This will show that you never touched your phone and it will be completely factory new. :good: But if you don't care about the flash counter (because your warranty is up or something), then you can just Odin flash the stock firmware and be good to go. :highfive:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] alovingmommyof3:
I was just reading about the flash counter before I saw this reply. I do care because my phone was brand new when I received it a few days ago. I don't know how the heck I can have a brand new phone that is already rooted with a possible custom rom. Until a few minutes ago, I didn't know Samsung had such a counter on devices now.

I am a bit of a noob still despite having a little experience with this. I don't know which is the best stock rom (I have found a few). I have downloaded Odin. I have no clue what TriangleAway is.

I have been in contact with the place I got my phone from to find out what the heck happened. I shouldn't have to go through all this for a brand new phone. I doubt they can replace it with one that hasn't had this happen because they wont know which boxes have the affected phones as the boxes are unopened.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] alovingmommyof3:
I know there are guides for this. I found them, closed the stupid window and now I can't find them again. I tried going through my history but there is so much in there it is hard to find.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] xdapowerapps:
Phones do not come pre-rooted with modified roms from the manufacturer. Contact whoever you got it from and request for a refund or exchange. TriangleAway is a app by Chainfire that resets a counter. This counter was used by Samsung to see if you messed with your ROM. Every time you flashed a ROM, your counter would go up by one. So if you flashed 4 roms, your counter will say "Flash counter: 4." TriangleAway resets that 0 so no one knows.

As far as best stock rom... well, they are stock. What do you mean best? lol. If you want 100% stock rom, then that is what you get. There are no variations. We can start talking about "best" only when you download ROMs that are modified by devs.

If you are on 4.2.2, here is the 100% STOCK ROM: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=14362

If you are on 4.3, or if you want to upgrade to 4.3, here is the 100% STOCK ROM: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=22280
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] alovingmommyof3:
Jeez I feel dumb. I got Triangle Away. It asked me if I wanted to grant it rights because I don't have super user access. I tapped ok and it closed.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] joemon871:
Sooo your phone wasn't rooted all this time? Haha :x
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] alovingmommyof3:
Then why does my backup pro and root checkers say I do? And why is there a team win custom recovery mode when I restart in recovery mode? I don't know if it matters but I can also go into download mode.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] xdapowerapps:
You have a custom recovery (TWRP). You probably have root (which has nothing to do with recovery) but you didn't give TA access.

They said the z1 will remain this years flagship so I doubt it will be a z2 hopefully its a mid-high end device
[Xperia Z1 General] Pryx:
AFAIK there was article on Sony blog, that Z1 will continue as flagship into 2014. It wouldn't make sense to announce new flagship so soon after Z1. I think they will wait a little bit longer before announcing new flagship :)

Sent from my Xperia Z1
[Xperia Z1 General] eclyptos:
It's just a speculation!
[Xperia Z1 General] whatwhatster:
I am also thinking the same about the Z1.

Bought the S2 in 2011 and used it untill the HTC One X came out in 2012. The camera was very disappointing from the One X, so this made me swap to a S4 and the S4 I hated the looks, the feeling was good with it but still that plastic is horrible. After 3 months the S4 died on me and the mainboard was dead after it came back from repair sold it right away and waited about 1,5 months for the Z1, I wanted to go for HTC One but the camera made my decision very difficult and I convinst my self to wait for the Z1.

So the Z1, it has his issues and I got one what didn't have a yellow hue problem but there are still some tweaks needed from Sony to take out some bugs/issues with the phone. But I think it looks good, it does everything what I want to do with a phone and it is waterproof.

So for me I will stick with the Z1 for at least 2 years I think, I saw some concepts from the S5 it played with the voices in my head to buy it if it will look like the concepts, so anyway I hope not and it will be a ugly phone again.
[Xperia Z1 General] pham077:
Announcing and releasing the actual device can span over several months.

I would love it if they announce the Z1 replacement because by the time it reaches Australia it would probably be June/July, just in time for a new device :o
[Xperia Z1 General] ssj_jaypee:
The Z1 came out in September. The Z2 won't be out till summer most likely. That's almost a full year, like every other device including iPhone and Galaxy phones which come out every 8-12 months also.
[Xperia Z1 General] El.Guaje:
Well, if Z2 is satisfy my needs, I'll jump in.

Thinner benzel.

IPS display

3GB of RAM

Larger sensor size

Better image algorithm

Bigger battery

5 or 5.2 inch is fine to me.

Z1 design.
[Xperia Z1 General] Morlock O:
How much you guys wanna bet it wont be Z2?

during the release of Z1, we had proper leaks a couple of months before... like we already know that it will be s800 chipset, 20mp camera, 3000 mah battery... we just don't know how it will look yet. we had leaks of the camera quality, we had leaks of the build id etc... we also had the honami home screen leaks...

for sirius I dont see any of that... just people pulling crap out of the air... its the same people panicking last December about the rumous that Z2 is coming out on CES lol turns out it was just Z1s with plastic sides lol!

it will not be a Z2, It will be a Z1R or Z1L...
[Xperia Z1 General] kirdroid:
Right they should hold back because you bought a new phone. Hope they release a new version every 6 months.
[Xperia Z1 General] Morlock O:
This is the actually Leak inTwitter:

"Sony Sirius (2014 flagship) tipped for MWC debut: 5.2-inch display, MSM8974AB SoC, and a home on Verizon in the US."

Does not say anything about Z2, does not say anything about bigger battery etc.... but one clue is that it will have a home in Verizon...

how people want to bet this will be like the Z1s for T-mobile?

I have a feeling this will be the specs:

yes 5.2 inch screen lesser bezels, but it will not be waterproof... more plastic, then everything else is the same as Z1, S800 chipset, 20mp camera, 3000 mah battery... maybe a 32 gb internal storage...

not Z2 worthy!
[Xperia Z1 General] negrobembon:
I think the Z2 will be released around August/September

And announced around june/july

yes, i think it will be another Z1 variant for verizon in the US only

This is what the Z people must have thought when the Z1 came out. No flagship gets upstaged in just six months, its usually a year. I could not believe at the time that Sony would do it so soon.

Thing is how many of them jumped ship ? i don't think too many.

S600 + 2GB RAM is still good enough for a lot of things and even a year from now should be ok.

---------- Post added at 02:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:41 PM ----------

Do you get the feeling that the rate of innovation that used to be linear since 2010 is kinda plateauing ?

What will Z2 have ?

bigger screen ? so what

bigger battery ? so what

different design ? ..

more ram ? ...
