[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Silicon Knight:
My phone was working fine before I feel asleep a few hours ago. When I woke up my phone was about to die. So I grabbed it and was gonna plug it in but then I nodded back off. When I woke up 25min later it was dead. So I plugged it in. And it turned on.

Figured everything was good to go. Well its been an hour or so now and I noticed it is not saying its charging even tho I have it plugged in. It says the battery is at 0%. So I unplugged it thinking it was just a glitch. But as soon as I unplug it from the charger. It shuts off.

I am currently using multirom to run stock rooted and Omnirom. I've been in Omnirom most of the day, so I tried booting into my stock ROM and I have the same problem. Except at least on stock it shows the charging symbol in the battery. Even tho it still says its not charging and is at 0%.

Not quite sure what the problem is. I charged it earlier this afternoon and it was working fine. I haven't made any system changes today. Only did some theme work using UCCW and zip themer. Other then that tho no changes have been made since the last time it was charging perfectly fine.

Only thing I can think of doing Now booting up into fastboot and flashing stock factory images and starting over fresh, since I've already tried rebooting, tried both ROMs, and tried multiple chargers/outlets, including my wireless charger. All to no avail.

EDIT - forgot to mention I am running the latest Franco Kernel on stock side and the latest version of Faux kernel on Omnirom.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zevim2005:
Its charging with the phone off?

if it is,as you said flash to stock!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Silicon Knight:
Its not charging at all. This is what my screen shows. If you look at the top widget it shows the battery as 2/3 full but says 0%
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
So to confirm 100%... if you turn the phone off for 30 minutes whilst connected to USB power then unplug it, it will not power up at all? If so, sounds like a hardware fault.

Isn't there a common bug where 2nd roms sometimes wont charge at all using multirom?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] farsight73:
Have you try using PC usb to charge it? Just to rule out the phone charger unit defective here..
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhilipTD:
It takes a while on the charger to resurrect a dead phone (or even for it to look like it's being resurrected).
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mistahseller:
he said multiple chargers multiple outlets.

I'd get rid of the multiROM and see if that fixes it.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tangosierra_:
I am using multirom + omni, and I noticed when I drain the battery to zero and charge the phone the battery stays at zero, until I shut the phone down and replug the phone then boot it back up, then the battery returns to normal. Not sure if this is what happens to you too, have you tried?

I have xposed partially installed (no root since I'm too busy to get supersu for now) and I multiboot Firefox and beanstalk if that matters
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Silicon Knight:
I tried that but it didn't work. I just reflashed factory images and now it works fine.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Silicon Knight:
You said you multiboot Firefox ? As in Firefox OS ?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tangosierra_:
Uh yep if that matters but I don't think so
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdh10475:
I did not read all the post in detail but the N5 has wireless charging. Do you have Qi charger? Personally that is what I use less wear and tear on your port. Also you said that it showed it was charging but it wasn't not sure what you meant by that.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bamidrol:
Hey guys,

A couple of days ago I recieved my One after I sent it for repairs.

They fixed my camera issue but changed my phone back to s-on. So now i'm left with a relocked phone with s-on.

I can't seem to re-unlock my phone by using htc's unlocking guide. After flashing the token it doesn't go into unlocking mode.

So i need some help with that. I'm on hboot 1.56 and 4.4 stock sense

Next problem:

I've been having this problem for a couple of days now. My phone charges unusually slowly. I always charge it overnight.

Last night it was 40% when i put it on the charger. About 8 hours later i woke up and it reached 95%. Already did a fresh install with no luck.

I'm thinking about sending it back and demand a new one but i need my phone for work. So if you guys know a way to fix it by using software that would be awesome.

Helping me out means beer ^^
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] .Ryker:
They didn't "fix" your phone, they never simply fix ones phone. They send you a new "refurbished phone" which would be why the Token ID doesn't work for unlocking the bootloader. Go through the steps to get a new Token ID then unlock your phone.

As for the problem with the charger, perhaps that's the reason the phone got sent in to be fixed in the first place, that would be something you want to work out before going through all the work to unlock and s-off first.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bamidrol:
Thanks for the reply. But they actually did fix it. I had some "marks" on my device. Some small scratches that helped me identify my phone. So this truly is my phone. I really do wanna go back to ARHD. I need my xposed :D
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] .Ryker:
Hmm maybe then they reflashed the device with stock every thing. I've never heard of them actually fixing it before! So if they did reflash it then they could be having the same issues.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bamidrol:
Yeah they reflashed a RUU. Not sure what kind of RUU. Only thing i find peculiar is that i can flash the token but it wont work.

Never had or heard about this problem before. If you know how to fix it you can earn yourself a beer ^^

I'm on hboot 1.56.0000. Maybe that is causing all the trouble
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] .Ryker:
Have you tried getting a different token ID on it?? Or tried running rumrunner to s-off?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bamidrol:
I tried rumrunner but it needs root-acces. I'm not rooted yet. And what exactly do you mean by a different token ID?

Flashing a RUU doesnt work. Signature fail error 12
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arkane78:
I have a stock I9300, un-rooted and up until 3 weeks ago had been happily using ADB and Samsung Kies to backup my phone.

Then the wonderful thing called Kies 3 happened - and since then I've not managed to get a single backup out of it.

It seems to backup some things but my applications it fails on yet won't tell me WHICH application is causing the issue (or if it's just Kies being Kies).

I'd like to be able to take backups of everything on my phone - something like Kies + ADB together, I know that with my phone being un-rooted, that application settings/data will not get backed up - I'm not sure what else wouldn't. But I'd rather not root my device.

What I'm asking for are recommendations for a SINGLE backup solution that would allow me to backup my phone to my PC, so that that can be included in my PC backups.

It's probably asking a lot just to find a single solution for this, I'd be happy with 2 solutions to achieve my aim as long as both of them worked together and backed up to the PC.

I'm happy enough to keep using ADB, except ADB doesn't backup SMS/MMS and ADB's Restore functionality is not at all granular - it's more like a 'my phone is boned, restore the entire thing' rather than restoring part of it.

If you recommend that I root my phone in order to get the single solution backup then I'd be happy to consider it. (If I were to root my phone, would restoring it or upgrading firmware be an issue from that point on - assuming I didn't want to use anything but stock firmware?)

Any advice or recommendations would be appreciated, I'm going to take a look at Helium and see what that can do for me, although I'd prefer a PC-based backup solution.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Unrooted try Helium .
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arkane78:
I've just tried Helium, it didn't work well - the desktop client/web interface never appeared in my IE10 or Firefox 25, so couldn't actually backup to PC. Another concern with it was it didn't explicitly say it backed up MMS, only SMS.

Does it do both?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
No idea i don't use it .
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Becky_x:
I'm used to getting about 1% an hour from my battery, drains a bit more when I use it heavily obviously.

But suddenly a few days ago, literally it was fine one day and rubbish the next, it started draining very fast, a few % every 30mins.

On Friday after unplugging it for work and the battery was still draining fast, I decided to let it completely drain out and then charge it back up while it was off and see what happened. It was unplugged for 32mins and already on 96% which is not what I'm used to.

I'm not one of those people that are constantly fiddling with their phone installing this, that and the other. I've not installed a new app for months and months.

My usage hasn't changed either, occasional Facebook if I'm not at my main computer, playing solitaire on my break at work, other than that it's mostly email. But I took a few days off work this week so if anything I used it a lot, lot less than usual.

I didn't want to have to but I took my pictures off, noted my numbers down just in case and did a factory reset. Added my apps back on and disabled unnecessary things. While I was sleeping it's gone from 56% to 2% in 9.5 hours!

I need this phone for work tomorrow, can anyone help me please!?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
First factory reset.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Becky_x:
I did, I wrote it above. Or do you mean do another one?

The last 2% went over 30mins go so I need to charge it before I try anything again
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Yes full charge then factory reset and test .
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Becky_x:
Surely all the Samsung rubbish that's on there will add to the drain? I know it did when I first got the phone last year, I googled around seeing what to disable and it's worked perfect for almost a year now.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Stock drain is not a problem as you post .

Solutions .

Zero its an app draining .

One its the battery .

Two its the firmware .

Three its the hardware .

The stock rom and apps is not going to show that sort of drain .
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Becky_x:
The only apps I had on there was Facebook, Twitter, eBay, T-Mobile, PayPal, Solitaire, Bejewelled and the National Rail app for train times.

Those had all been on there for months though I hadn't added anything new for a very long time so could it still be an app?

Battery I only had a problem with when I got the phone it just didn't have a very long life which I gathered was a very common problem but I fixed it. I haven't dropped it or taken it out or anything.

When I found I could update to 4.3 I waited a while first but I did eventually update but this was a few weeks ago it's been as normal until this week so unless something has changed in 4.3 I don't think it's that.

Still charging at the moment, nearly halfway.

Can anyone help me please, I need this phone for work tomorrow, how can I test what is draining my battery? Is there a list of things I can disable in applications manager? What are mediaserver and bootanimation, I can't even find those or google services in the list
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Media server is your media files .

Boot animation is the animation at boot .

My suggestion would be to download battery calibration app from play . Charge battery to 100% and wipe battery stats .

This will only reset / clear the stats as yours seem a bit odd .

Follow that with Better Batters Stats and run that for a day looking for wakelocks .
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Becky_x:
Run it for a whole day!? Can I download anything else as I'll need the phone to email/call/play games at work

EDIT: Do you have to pay for better battery stats because I'm not prepared to do that

Same Problem here!

I made the official upgrade to Android 4.3 (stock-Rom) and Root. Since then the Phone is showing normal stats for all app but I loose 5-10 percent every hour in standby since 4 days. I found out, that drain finally stops by about 80 percent (leftover) and then it changes to normal drain.

I think I only have to set bat.stat new. How can I do this without pay-app?

Sry 4 my bad English ;) :confused:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Becky_x:
I left it on charge all night last night, turned wifi off before work today and was getting about 1% an hour was going good! Came home and looked, it was a little over 1% an hour but still good so turned wifi back on. I've just been out for an hour or so didn't take my phone. Left it on 90% so was expecting around 88%/89% but it's on 84%. I can see on the battery screen that since I came home and turned wifi on (going by the blue wifi line) the screen has woken up a few times since I've been out. What could that be?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tallman43:
It will be wifi go to settings wifi advanced keep wifi on during sleep change it to never or when plugged in.:)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Becky_x:
So what does that do then, when the phone is locked (i.e ive pressed the button and set it on my bedside table, screen is black) the wifi is turned off?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tallman43:
Yes when you go to sleep phone goes to sleep and wifi goes to sleep :D
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Becky_x:
Hmm, seems to be working... lost 2% in an hour so not back to normal but better. Real test will be how much I lose while I'm asleep lol

If it is the wifi why wasn't it happening before and just all of a sudden last week? o.O
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Becky_x:
I only lost 4% in over 10hours which is amazing

But I didn't get any of my emails until I woke the phone up and it connected to my wifi, why can't it use my mobile data? I don't like the thought that I can be out somewhere and have to keep checking the phone to make sure I don't miss anything important.

Then the battery went down 2% in 10mins :(
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tallman43:
It can use mobile data make sure you have it switched on in settings.It will use mobile data when not connected to wi-fi it should automatically swap when not in use make sure data is enabled. ;) But don't forget this will increase battery usage!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Becky_x:
I get emails while I'm in work but didn't at home, I'll leave wifi off at home and see what happens.

Lost 12% in 3.5hrs, something still isn't right. Why did it even go wrong in the first place :(

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Becky_x:
It is important but we don't have much spare money to be spending £2 on an app, I've never paid for one yet and don't intend to

I'm technically minded when it comes to computers and stuff but phones go over my head a little. So I just don't understand how it was literally perfect, only losing 1% an hour, lasting for days. Then the next day just multiple % an hour when nothing has changed.

Okay I downloaded the wakelock one earlier this afternoon and I've downloaded better battery now too. What am I looking for?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hundred_miles_high:
I appreciate times are hard but devs gotta make a living too :)

You need to ideally give the apps a day (maybe get away with half a day) and then open them up (I use WLD mostly) and check the stats shown to see which apps are keeping your phone from going into deep sleep and how long your phone is being kept awake (using more battery than it should)

My s3 running imperium 14.1 usually has a wake time around 11% with WiFi always on and plenty of apps syncing in the background (eBay, k9, gmail, weather etc etc)

If you find any that are causing prolonged wake time when your phone is not in use try freezing them (use greenify or disable or simply uninstall for the purpose of diagnosis) and see if things improve.

May be worth installing CPU spy too (free) to see that your phone is actually going into deep sleep when not in use.

I recently had a similar problem which turned out to be an updated version of Trust antivirus causing 82% wake time where as the previous version caused no issue. I cleared the app cache & data uninstalled rebooted and reinstalled the app and the prob was resolved.

Hope this helps a bit.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Becky_x:

Better Battery |Stats Thread .
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hundred_miles_high:
Hi, sorry for the slow reply, have been a mucho busy puppy for the last few days :)

To be honest 91% after 7 hours on standby isn't exactly shocking as it's only little over 1% per hour battery use in standby.

However, here is a screenshot from my WakeLock Detector App:

The time next to each app shown is how long that particular app has kept your phone from being in deep sleep, the smaller number at the far right of each app entry is how many times the app has woken the phone (not necessarily turning on the screen, just doing stuff like background sync)

Basically you are looking for apps with a high wake time (in my case K9 is by far and away the worst culprit) if you have any/many that are keeping the phone awake for more than a few mins then they would be possible culprits to investigate for excess battery use as the time shown doesn't include the duration that the app is running while the phone is in use.

If you find any that look properly suspicious it may be worth, freezing / disabling / uninstalling them for a day or two (assuming you can manage without them and they are not system apps) and see if things improve any.

Also, if you tap on the red/green bar at the top of the screen it will pop up a breakdown of the time your phone has been awake, and then further breaks down into total time for stats recorded, how much of that time the phone has been awake, of the awake time how much was with the screen on (ie phone in use). The last figure shown is the most relevant as it shows the total time the phone has been awake (ie not in deep sleep) while not in use.

I'm not the most familiar with Better Battery Stats as WLD usually suffices for me, so maybe a trip to the BBS thread would be useful in helping to interpret the data from that app.

CPU Spy is pretty easy to use for this purpose as all you need to see is that the phone is going into deepsleep and unless you are constantly using your phone from fully charged to totally flat, I would expect deepsleep to have the longest bar on the list of CPU speeds shown.

Hope this helps a bit.
