[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithross39:
I brought my first smartphone (Galaxy W) when the S2 was released......

I brought my S2 just after the S3 was released......needless to say the phone (if i'd brought it outright) was cheaper than when it was new tech.

As a result, I got an affordable price for my contract.

I FULLY intend to get the Z2, but by the time my contract is up for renewal, the Z2 will probably be at least 1, possibly 2 flagships out of date....it'll be seen as 'old tech' even though it'll definitely be an upgrade to me......it'll also be WAY cheaper than it is now......

For me, a win win situation......

Waiting will also give me a chance to read this forum for a few months and allow me to see what quirks this phone might have before I get it......
[General Questions and Answers] Gamer11:
My S4 mini's battery is draining too fast while gaming and when i'm on WiFi.How can i make the battery last long???
[General Questions and Answers] f3rd1:
Well, it depends on the game, how resource intensive it is.

In your case, what I can think of is to reduce the screen brightness to minimum.

Other than that, try turning on battery saving mode to reduce CPU usage.

Regards,

[General Questions and Answers] VOS:
Try turning the display brightness down. Also it depends what game it is. It could be a CPU intensive game and there's not much you can do about it. Unless of course you've rooted your phone and then you could clock down the processor a little to make it use less power at the cost of the game running slightly less smooth.
[General Questions and Answers] eatsleep:
Install and check Better Battery Status, it will give you the right app which is misbehaving and you can easily handle with it

And i do not see the point in spending so much but still not using it properly (Ps. I never turn the brightness to lowest, neither run my device on power saver)
[General Questions and Answers] NafeesTyagi:
Ya u r right m also facing same issue with Gt-i9192

But here are some steps to save more battery

1-reduce your brightness don't use auto ,set brightness manually to low level

2- smart features such as smart stay , voice control and motion sensors etc. reduce more battery , use them whenever you want to show off otherwise turn off them.

3-At last but not the least and most effective step go to settings > more >about phone > tap 7 times (fastly) on build no. It will turn on your developer options.

In developer options limit background apps to 2 this will increase your ram and battery life also

4-And last root ur phone & use custom rom (upgrade to lollipop/ s5 proyect) they are far better in power consumption

For some reason once my phone hits 8% battery life it drops to 2% immediately.

This happens on viperxl & cm, so its not ROM related.

Any ideas on how to fix it? Is there a way to recalibrate the battery ?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
There's nothing wrong with your battery. That's normal behaviour when the battery is at such a low level. The battery percentage is never an exact value, it's only an estimate based on the current voltage that is being reported by the battery. When a battery is that low it isn't abnormal at all for it to jump down drastically like that.

On a side note, unless you're performing an initial charge cycle after flashing a new ROM you really shouldn't let your battery deplete to such a low level. With this specify type of battery technology it's quite bad for it and will actually affect the long term life of the battery. The preferred method of charging is to do regular top up charges from anywhere between ~80% and ~30% battery level right up to the 100% mark.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
There is no such thing as "recalibrating the battery". This term is sometimes used by folks who confuse Li ion technology with old NiCad batteries that need to be "conditioned".

What you may mean is recalibrating the battery

meter

, which has to do with software, not battery chemistry. Battery meter is usually not accurate after a ROM flash, and should be recalibrated. This is done by charging to 100% (let it sit for half hour or so at full, to ensure any saturation charge is achieved) then deplete until around 10 or 20%.

Other than that, the meter is as accurate as its going to get. As timmaaa already stated, the battery % is just an inaccurate approximation of the amount of usage left that corresponds to various voltages. It often can't be trusted to be accurate to within 1% (or even 5%) increments. And also as timmaa stated, you should not be draining your battery that low on a frequent or habitual basis, as its harmful to the long term life of the battery. Charge frequently.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] melted_cow:
I bought my One in the UK and, as far as I'm aware, it's locked to Three (the network I bought it from). Since I've come to China and South East Asia, I do not get any signal on my phone. My girlfriend who has an iPhone 3Gs and is also on Three gets signal (or she did before she cancelled her contract).

Should I get signal out here? I thought the phone would be able to work anywhere in the world in spite of where it was purchased. Anybody know anything about this? It's rooted and I have a custom ROM and custom firmware installed. Pretty sure I also updated the radio manually too, but I can't remember.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raghav kapur:
Its not working because the phone is SIM-locked to Three network. You will have to SIM unlock the phone.

http://support.three.co.uk/SRVS/CGI..._cat=billing,varset_subcat=3772,Case=obj(4363)

Request an unlock code and continue the process. Then, your SIM will be unlocked and you will be able to use it anywhere
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] melted_cow:
Huh, I thought that would only happen if I tried to put a non-Three SIM in the phone. Thanks, man
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BenPope:
If you have your UK SIM in there, maybe you need to activate roaming on the network. But you know what they're like, you can only do that whilst in the UK.

Get an unlock code from eBay or a website and buy a local SIM, it'll save you money in days or even hours given the stupendous price of data roaming.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guardsix:
Thanks for the response and I've already done that, but my question is really for Google developers of Android. Why can't they make a counter system part of the Android OS or at least the stock launcher.

We shouldn't need to get alternative launchers just to have a email counter. Just my opinion of course.

DoPa ROMs

AOSP v5.0.2_r1 Beta v3 (US/UK/AU)

See this post for details and downloads.

AOSP v4.4.4_r2 DoPa v2.6 (US/UK/AU)

DoPa v2.6 is the first ROM to support

all

models of the Sero 7 Pro, regardless of where in the world they were sold. It starts with well-tested AOSP code and adds core functions where needed but skips the frills that are easy to add on. Among its features are extended filesystem support (i.e. NTFS, exFAT, and the most flexible F2FS support on any device), and enhanced USB-OTG support including charging the tablet while USB devices are attached (another DoPa original).

The package includes a handful of apps most people find useful (e.g. SuperSU, GravityBox, etc) but does not contain any of the Google apps. Because its focus is on stable, reliable performance, DoPa v2.6 unlikely to be the fastest Kitkat ROM available. However, those with a need for speed can use the integrated overclocking to give it a boost.

For more info and download links, see Sero 7 Pro (US) - AOSP 4.4.4_r2 DoPa v2.6

DoPa v4.2.1 v2.0

DoPa v2.0 is an enhanced version of the stock ROM based on Hisense's August, 2013 update (JB v4.2.1 - build P756.6.02.20). It debloats and roots the original, and adds a number of useful apps to the package. This version features a custom-built kernel based on Hisense's source that offers bug fixes and enhancements such as USB-OTG support. It is intended for those who want a stable, reliable ROM that adds a few features missing from the original.

See the Sero 7 Pro (US) dopa v2.0 thread for more details and download links.

PAC-ROM (Not supported anymore, I might release a bugfix eventually)

PAC is a combination of Paranoid Android, AOKP, and CyanogenMod, with a bit of flair.

Thread and download link:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=50836817

Keep in mind that the current build is unstable- however it's not my fault. PAC had a faulty commit or something. I'm trying to fix it but I might have to do a clean sync to get a working build- all of my recent builds since that commit have failed.

Ubuntu Touch

It's Ubuntu, except packed down onto an ARM device and a 7 inch screen. This is the high-end version of Ubuntu Touch, meaning we have the ability to hook up an external hard drive, a keyboard, and a mouse so the Sero doubles as a portable Ubuntu workstation.

Hello

I wanna question if somebody have the same bug or know the solution.

If i flash any Android 4.2.2 ROM my optimus g will work well at the begining but past 5 minutes i enter to an app and it dont work. Tried flashing differents kernel. Then I enter in any app even home or launcher and it turns black. If I lock the screen and unlock it, it will turn on only capacitive lights and the screen dont even turn on never, had to force reboot.

Please help me. I know some basics things but i dont know what is the problema with this.

Thanks

I tried every ROM. But with Android 4.2 rom happen only, not with cm 10.2 or cm11, or pac 4.3.1-4.4.2, etc. Only 4.2 ROMs.

Any solution? why you asume is corrupted display driver? it have a fix?

Did you fully wipe before flashing 4.2 ?

Give cyanogenmod a try first.

Question 7 in the faq on the augmented smartwatch pro page says.

Question #7:

Will your app support the Samsung Galaxy gear watch?

Probably not, but will look at their APIs once they release their SDK. It is unclear if their APIs will allow the hands-free and at a glance capability to 3rd party apps.

No i have sw2 but u said galaxy gear is a piece of crap watch in your opinion and i was planing to buy gear 2 so should i buy it or not ?
[Sony Smartwatch] cylent:
The decision is yours. Remember one thing though. The battery life on the sw2 is better because it has a slower processor which does the job just fine. I mean it's a watch for crying out loud why would you need a 1ghz dual core that can't last more than 24 hours.

I was wanting to get the Pebble first but I had to wait for shipping whole the sw2 was available locally.

Watch some reviews on YouTube and remember to install augmented smartwatch pro if you want Arabic to work.

2) Download odin and download stock firmware from www.samsungupdates.com based on your region.

3) if you phone gets detected,odin textbox will turn green.

4) open odin, now check option " restart" make sure only this option is checked like the following screenshot attached.

5) now click on pda and naviagate to the stock firmware you have downloaded....

6) it will gonno take sometime,,,,,until you see a successful message in the bottom-left corner....
