[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] giorgos123:
Hey guys and please dont crucify me. I know there's a ton of other battery issue threads on this forum and on many others but I cant find the right one. I have looked up each and every one of them, about mediaserver draining the battery about the android system and so on. I have done everything each thread said to, downloaded greenify and hibernated most active apps, disabled and froze certain bloatware with titanium backup pro and so many other things. And I think that the battery would be supposed to perform at its best right now. I am not a very heavy user, I just use my phone for music, calls, a little gaming and the occasional facebook/messenger/browser session with either 4G or WiFi. I have everything everyone ever said turned off. Things like auto backup of Google+ and all location services and auto sync. Screen is constantly at 65% brightness. To further prove my point, at this point in this post which took me like 3 minutes to write, my battery has lost 3 percent. I can leave the phone unplugged all night at 100% and when I wake up it will be at 95% but the moment I pick it up and start playing some music or some games the battery goes down really fast. I can even compare it to the battery of my old Xperia S after a year and a half use which was like 7 hours altogether. Battery stats say that mediaserver takes up 20ish% battery and Android system goes over 40%. I really don't know what to do. Do you have any suggestions?

Thanks in advance, George.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
you should look at the time it depletes when screen on, if its below 5 hours from 100% downward then its not good. I have noticed the battery still charges past 100%. So leave it an hour after it reaches 100%. I would also recommend using the charger that came with phone. No usb charging for these tests. Dont use phone while charging either.

Also freezing\debloating can be adverse, at least thats my experience on battery life. So I recommend going back to stock full clean with factory resets.

No recovering of apps or app data for these tests. No contamination so to speak.

Also lg roms allow you to switch off services via taskmanager settings, in settings app you can disable what you dont want to use. No need for debloating\freezing etc.

Switch off location settings, gps and bluetooth for this test. Search for carrier iq on lg g2 forum and how to disable it via settings. Switch of cloud storage(dropbox/box etc) and lg backup stuff. Only google accounts, wifi and mobile networks.

Now for the screen on time test, just use browsing apps. No games or music\movies.

Your screen on time should be 6 hours approximately. From 100 to 0. It can be 5-6 hours. If its below 5 then its not good. this is with good network coverage btw.

thats what I would do

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] comk4ver:
Have you tried better battery stats, wake lock detector, or even gsam battery monitor. Maybe you have Google location services on?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] giorgos123:
Yes I have tried all of the above. Only thing that sticks out is something called 1013 which keeps running and waking my phone but I think it's something about the sound. Next is Android System with many wakelocks and as I said with 30+ % battery consumption. Everything location-wise is off. Actually everything is off. Every setting. Things go to hell when I open 4G or WiFi. Also I have the international model so I don't think there's carrier IQ in my device, or maybe I didn't find it in an app suggested by someone here for that purpose. System Tweaks I think it was.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] comk4ver:
Could you post a screen shot?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rkennison:
I've had android 4x do this on multiple devices, multiple roms for no apparent reason. Wipe it and start over. Wipe everything. Especially directories with any form of music, sound files, videos... ( Use LG Flash Tool and go back to stock 4.2 for example will do just that )
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] giorgos123:
So the OTA came over to my country and now it seems like BBS and WLD are broken. Can't really do anything to show you the more complex battery stats and can't really say that the battery has improved. Reducing the brightness did have some effect but I am not really fond of having it at such low values. Anything else I can do to minimize the Android System battery consumption? Its bigger than what the screen is using, even when it was at 70% brightness.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiguy99:
Sad to say my first LG G2 just got replaced today & am now running into this problem with the 2nd phone. Its literally night and day battery life performance between both phones.

First phone had 0 issues and by now I'd still have battery % in the 90s. New phone is sitting @ 63% after 3 hours of use (setting up phone, few reboots here there....just factory resetted for the 2nd time to try and clear this etc)

Culprits are:

Google Services

Android Core Apps

Media Server

System UI

Both phones are: 4.2.2

build: JDQ39B

Software: D80110c

brightness (which never was an issue)= 45%

O.P,

has your situation improved or worsened since you've encountered this problem? I'm thinking about sending my replacement back for another replacement
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] giorgos123:
I can now say that the battery life of my phone has improved. But sadlyf the problem was probably some corrupt mp3 files that I moved directly from my old device which forced the mediaserver service to run constantly and thus the android system. :/ I still can say that I think it drains a bit fast when I use it for browsing, Facebook, games and stuff but at least when I check the battery consumption, the only things stated there that make a difference are the screen at ~30-35% and the game which I was playing or for example Chrome. It finally feels like that whatever I use drains the battery and not something else in the background but I don't have that good of an impression for the 3000mAh "beast" battery of the G2. Awesome phone though.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiguy99:
I ended up returning my replacement phone and am back on my original G2 until I can get a proper replacement. I can tell you, the G2 does have an awesome battery life if you get a good phone out the box.

The differences between my first G2 and the 2nd one tmobile sent me are night and day. Get a replacement phone while you still have time.

Should have my new one next week. Just hope it's exactly like my first one.

Ex....been using it all day..I mean heavy usage...and in still @ 75%..and the phone is cool to the touch

The replacement g2 would be@ 36-37% by now and running hot
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sfkn2:
You're on 4.2.2, not 4.4.2 when you have the 1013, is that correct?

Try rebooting when the volume is on, rather than rebooting in quiet/vibrate mode.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] giorgos123:
The OTA came to my country some days ago. Still the battery feels kind of small. Is it normal to lose 1% every ~1-2 minutes on 4G browsing? With nothing else on. No gps no G+ backup no anything.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] BlackmistZA:
So i recently unlocked the bootloader on my phone and put the new CM11 build from here but the only thing not working is Wifi i tap the button it does not turn on i go into the settings it does not turn on. I searched and there is a few other people who has had the problem but different phone but i tried it as well. I cant post in that thread as i dont have a high enough post count so this is where i came.

This is what i did in the exact order Fastboot unlock bootloader> fastboot flash boot.img>fastboot reboot>created a backup using CWM>factory wipe>wipe cache>wipe dalvik cache>format system> install zip > rebooted

i left out the Gapps at first. dont think it would make a difference if i installed them later.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stapletonic:
Hi,

I have a galaxy note 3 from Ireland, and I wanted to root it so I followed the instructions I found online. However, when it booted back in after ODIN it still askd me for the encryption pin. If I entered it the phone screen just went black.

So I downloaded the firmware and flashed that with ODIN, and even though it seems to flash successfully it still prompts me for the encrpytion pin. I know the pin, but it just goes to a blank screen.

Can anyone help me with this? I don't care if I lose my files, I just want to get the phone working again!

Thanks.

Well I flashed it this morning with stock kernel and it ran fine and I loved it. It's also my first custom ROM I've done since I bought my nexus 7. But I'm a stock bland kinda guy. So I restored nand. It would almost complete with stock except for the occasional chinese characters like when installing apps.

Oh and you gotta search for specific gapps to flash. Any old gapps would not work well. What I've heard from a YouTuber.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Pellisco:
So first off, I am have a lot of questions that I might as well ask.

First, will rooting my Rogers Samsung Galaxy S4 I337m mess anything up with the carrier? Like, will i still be able to call and text, etc?

Secondly, can my carrier track that I have a rooted phone?

And this is the most important question, how do I actually root this phone? Most of the methods I have tried don't work because the security app "KNOX" keeps denying access for the root to happen. I have tried many ways to remove KNOX from the phone, but none of them work....So how do I actually root this phone without having KNOX shut me down?

Anyways, thanks for the help!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] robinsonj:
So ...based on the question, and the fact that this is your first post, it appears you have a fair bit of reading to get through before doing it but yes the phone does everything rooted as it did before, you just have access to the whole file system (which means you will have the ability to break things that were "roped off for your protection" before rooting)

No your carrier doesn't know or care you are rooted... unless you do break something and bring it in asking them to fix it, then they will tell you you broke it yourself tough luck. (unless of course you reverse everything back to stock first)

FIRST read all (really... read all of it) of the 2nd and 3rd thread in "AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General"

[GUIDE][INFO] The beginner's info thread (aka. the noob helper) and [HOW-TO] The ULTIMATE All-In-One Guide - I337M & MDL - MF3 - MK2

Then you can root. The "CF Auto-root" method works perfectly on all the Canadian carrier versions (they only differ in carrier bloat.), then install a custom recovery, then install a good backup utility, I suggest TiBu (which will also allow you to remove Knox).

Good luck.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Pellisco:
Yes, I know this is my first post, and you may think I don't know much about rooting, but I have had some experience in the past. I did root my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2, first time I soft bricked it, then actually got to root and stuff to work, so I have some knowledge on what I am doing.

Those two threads that you have linked me, I have looked over and learn't some stuff from them. I have also downloaded CF Auto-Root for the I337m version. I know how to work it, through using Odin and download mode, exact same way I rooted my tablet.

I just have one more question though, rooting it with odin through download mode, that bypasses KNOX and allows the root to work? Cause if I tried rooting with any program like motochopper, KNOX would block it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] robinsonj:
OK just didn't want you to brick your phone by not really understanding Odin... It is writing to the system partition and has been known to make a mess if the wrong files are dropped in the bootloader or if a download is interrupted.

I'm afraid all I really know about KNOX is from reading about the problems with the 1.x implementation and that the latest was supposed to be the solution for BYOD in a secure enterprise...

I Odined CF Auto-Root and had no issues whatsoever... I'm pretty sure KNOX can only run inside the OS, so in download mode you're outside of where it can interfere with anything. After the root and a custom recovery the first thing I did was freeze all KNOX and "enterprise" files just in case.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Pellisco:
Okay. Hopefully KNOX doesn't interfere with anything. I also noticed in download mode:

Product Name: SGH-I337M

Current Binary: Samsung Official

System Status: Custom

KNOX Kernel Lock: 0x0

KNOX Warranty Void: 0x0

CSB-CONFIG-LSB: 0x20

Write Protection: Enable

eMMC Burst Mode: Enabled

So which ones trip when I root it? I know that the 'Current Binary' will trip if I install a custom rom, but, what about the KNOX stuff? I know that the Warranty Void will then turn to '0x1' and I think the kernel lock will change too, but not 100% sure.

Also, what about Write Protection? Will that have anything to do with writing new software onto the phone and will block it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Gage_Hero:
You may want to look at the top of this page.... http://autoroot.chainfire.eu/ states CF-auto root will trip Knox warranty... if your rooting, you should install a custom recovery and do a nand backup before you do anything else root without backup can have some ill side effects if you mess around with your files/apps... ie delete something that is critical.... of coruse custom recovery trips something else too I forget what it was but I am sure it's been discussed a couple times throughout the forum.... all I can say is read lots.... most times someone can get you out of a jam but I prefer not to go there in the first place.. so I read before I do.... most here will tell you it's the best way.... pay close attention to those who have messed up... good indication of what not to do....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Pellisco:
One other thing I noticed was that there are locked boot loaders on certain devices.

So I have been wondering, does the Rogers Samsung Galaxy S4 come with a locked boot loader? Cause if it does, and I try and root my phone, there is a high chance that it will brick the device.

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Acebackz:
Okay, I'll start with the problem. After a few days I flashed the Moto G GPE Firmware using MotoTool, from the xda forums. Everything was great, but I downloaded a ROM (Paranoid Android), made a Backup, and flashed it as usual. When the phone booted, an encryption unsuccessful message popped up. I rebooted into recovery and restored my last backup. I saw in xda that the problem was probably generated by using the GPE version, so today I downloaded my stock firmware, flashed it, but the phone got stuck on the logo. Tried the same with another firmwares, and still got the same problem. I rebooted into the Bootloader, flashed TWRP, flashed the PhilZ GPE recovery, sideloaded PA again, got the same problem. Flashed CarbonROM (after doing every wipe and stuff), and got the same message. Tried CM11, didn't worked. But the problem is...

How can I correctly flash my original firmware if it's not working? I need to go back to the "normal" Moto G, so I can flash ROMs and stuff.
