when i go to settings to do this it checks att's network? or should it still work lik that with a tmo sim card?

thanks

If you have access to a computer, you can try using the samsung software.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ¡OM3GA!:

This is the latest firmware.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CZ Eddie:
Folks,

We're trying to get Android 4.4 working on the Microsoft Surface Pro tablet.

Actually, 4.4 is already working. But the WiFi never turns on. So we need a WiFi driver.

This tablet has the Marvell AVASTAR 350N WiFi adapter.

Their driver downloads can be found here:

http://www.marvell.com/support/downloads/search.do

So what do you think?

Ubuntu 13.X is working great on the Surface Pro. So I'm sure I could figure out how to extract its WiFi driver if it will work in Android?

Here is the Surface Pro/Android 4.4 links:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamiethemorris:
I don't think doing it that way will work, but you could try it... It should go in /lib/modules somewhere. Are you using a prebuilt androidx86 or building it from the source? What I would do is build it into the kernel source. If you're familiar with building a kernel at all this should give you an idea of what to do: http://cateee.net/lkddb/web-lkddb/MWIFIEX_USB.html that being said, I did see that even people running Ubuntu on the surface pro were having trouble getting WiFi to work.

Does it work?

Hey CZ Eddie,

I just bought an used Surface Pro two weeks ago and have been trying some different live cd Android Images of whom just the rerede.com Android IA 4.2.2 Release worked with wi-fi. I have also not yet installed a release on the SSD because I would like to know how well it is running (in terms of compability with apps)..

Could you share some of your experience please? :)

Did you manage to implement the driver in the 4.4 Kit Kat release?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CZ Eddie:
No, I sold my Surface. It looks like WiFi will never work in 4.4.+ and if it does, it will never work 100% properly.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] svemo89:
Thanks! It's a shame they won't offer a "real" driver for Android, since a lot of other win8 devices do :/

Maybe the community will come up with a solution someday.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] sbkjuggalo:
After some searching I can only figure out that sprints s3 and virgin mobile phone are the same, true or false???

If it is true does that mean all the work here will work on my phone

Thx for any help I can get
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] joeyhdownsouth:
Radios are different, I believe virgin is more like Boost. You can use ROMS here but you must remove asserts from the ROM 1st to keep from getting errors in recovery.

Thanks for the response, do u know if and were they have any boost work at.

You should definitely read post 1 and 2 carefully HERE. A lot of info to take in. I know from experience that you can only have 3g and MMS, or 4g and no MMS on AOSP roms. If you flash the 4g fix it breaks MMS.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] steelersmb:
I don't know how everyone else is getting 3-5 hours of on screen time. When my screen is on, I lose about 1 percent every 2 minutes it seems like. When I look at the app usage, the kernel and media are sucking the life out of the battery. I am really discouraged about this battery because my G2 would easily get 3.5+ hours of on screen time. So far, I am going to be lucky to get about an hour.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] ocman40:
Something is wrong with ur phone or u have some jacked up apps. I have got over 6 hours screen time with this phone and got over 5 with my DNA. You need to download GSAM or BEtter battery stats.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] steelersmb:
I have Gsam installed but sometimes it doesn't accurately record on screen time as it resets to 0. Also, today I unplugged my phone and the phone was thinking that the charger was still connected. As I said, Gsam reports that the Kernel is taking battery power.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] ocman40:
Something is way wrong with your phone then.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] huichan:
Mine has terrible battery life

I am very much on the same page with you. I am on my 4th cycle.

Mine only last 14 hours with 3 hours of screen time. I don't understand how all these people are getting 5 to 6 hours of screen time.

I have both Better Battery Stat and GSam monitor and it shows Kernel is taking 50% and system is taking 6.2%
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] brightssingh:
Just try with different kernals,good kernals would give exellent battery life
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Droid2drummer:
I would gladly take the battery problems to get rid of this brand new beast. It's too Frickin big.. I had g2 but sold it. Paid 700 for this att note 3...lol. straight talk on att towers to save on bills. But this thing may be the fastest latest greatest next to the new releases of '14 but I should have kept the g2...This is a tank. I'd swap for smaller phone in heartbeat. Might post cl ad

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] steelersmb:
Are you in the right forum? This makes no sense.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] ChrisNee1988:
I think it highly depends on what you're doing when screen is on. If you're playing games or using a lot of data, it can drain very quickly. If you're watching local videos or something, your battery would last a lot longer.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] David 617:
if you are rooted, install better battery stats (free on xda from the dev) to see the culprit.

clearly something is keeping the phone awake and hogging the cpu
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] raidflex:
So far today with only 10 minutes of screen on time and 45 minutes of playing a podcast through Bluetooth in my car the battery is down to 92%. This podcast was already downloaded and just playing from Dogcatcher. When I left I rebooted the phone right after pulling it off the charger. The phone is rooted and all Verizon apps are disabled. I see the android system at 40% and Google Services at 15% usage. Yesterday with only about 2 hours of screen on time I was down to 18% after 10 hours off the charger. I do not see any one app drawing power, it is always the android system it seems.

Edit: Using BetterbatteryStats I noticed that my phone has basically been awake the entire time it has been off the charger. Out of 2.5 hours it was in deep sleep for 10 minutes.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] wtoj34:
I don't get great battery life either. Nor do I get good game performance. Battery has went down 9% in less than 2 hours of idle. Just downloaded gsam the kernel use is the highest at 26+ percentage
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] sfreemanoh:
Turning off Location Reporting made a HUGE difference to my battery life. I accidentally left my phone laying in bed next to me last night instead of plugged in, and it dropped maybe 5% over 6 hours.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] raidflex:
I will try disabling location reporting. But I know with my Galaxy S3 I had this enabled and did not have battery issues.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] pmazz850:
I turned off location reporting and location history and am seeing better battery life today. 5hrs 47 min and 89% battery left.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] mchief298:
My battery is confusing me. First 2 days.. 15hrs 3hrs screen on time.. 3 days after that 24+hrs with 5hrs screen on time... The past couple of days I'm back down to 14-15hrs with 1-3hrs screen on time. This is running it down to 10%

My usage isn't much different from day to day.

Power saving is now enabled and I turned off location settings. Let's see...

M8, nuff said.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] raidflex:
What I do not understand is why my old GS3 and my co-workers HTC One M7 with location services on, do not have this battery drain problem. This should not be an issue.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] sfreemanoh:
Yeah, it seems to be an on and off issue. On my GNex sometimes after flashing a ROM I had to turn location reporting off to get through the day, and then after the next ROM flash I didn't.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] raidflex:
See the thing is with my S3 even after switching ROMs my battery life was consistent. I mean the first couple days after switching ROMs it wouldn't be great, but that's just the time it takes for battery to settle down.

Edit: After doing more testing I suspect it may be related to the High Accuracy mode for GPS. I had this turned on, because I want the GPS to be used when I am using maps or navigation. Now the problem is how do I have it only use the GPS for maps and not for Google Now and all other apps. I will not know if this is the problem until I test the battery for a longer period of time.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] pettigrew95:
In GSam it's telling me my kernel is using 23.2% of my battery...Also RILJ seems to use a lot of the battery. This seems really high...Any idea what the kernel could be doing to drain so much battery and how I can stop it?

EDIT: 6:00 PM EST: I have enabled all Greenify experimental features and currently have the following Greenified:

-Caller Name ID

-Maps

-Zoe

I'm hoping hibernating maps will save a lot of battery as Maps should only be waking up when I actually launch the Maps app (i.e. when I need navigation etc.) I have location reporting off and location history.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] cheno1115:
Hey, did hibernating maps solve the kernel usage? Me and a bunch of others over at the general HTC One M8 forums are having the same issue with the kernel usage...
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] pettigrew95:
Hibernating maps greatly improved my battery life. Google services only wakes my phone 300+ times over a 24 hour period whereas before I hibernated maps it was waking my phone 1000+
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] cheno1115:
Awesome, What app did you use to hibernate maps?

Greenify

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Evocm7:
Google's location services are a huge battery killer even in "low battery" mode. I can easily go 2 days without worrying whether I'll make it through second day. I think I could hit 6-7 hours screen time on one charge if I leave brightness on low. So much better life than s4 with same size battery

Sent from my S-Off HTC One M8
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] raidflex:
For me it was defiantly the GPS that was the issue. I used Automateit! and set it up so that only when I launch maps it enables the GPS and then when maps is closed it goes back to battery save mode. This can also be setup with other apps also.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] sfreemanoh:
Yeah, I have a tasker script doing the same thing. It's nice not having to worry about it.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] 123421342:
I have location services on battery saving mode but location reporting off in google now. If you have RILJ wakelocks you have poor service,nothing you can do about it. I have greenify for every app that I don't need notifications for like tapatalk, spotify etc, and I disabled all the verizon bloat. My phone has used 45% in about 1.3 days with at least 1.5 hours screen on time. It uses 1.5% per hour or less on average. I am literally amazed by both the battery and the stock rom.

title should read: galaxy note 10.1 losing battery while charging

------

I got a galaxy note 10.1 this past January(purchased new in box). It has been working fine up until today. When its plugged in now, it shows the indicator that its plugged in/charging... but the battery drains.

I tried cleaning the USB port with a brush & even used a q-tip with a dash of alcohol(no luck). I then decided to do a factory reset & wiped the cache. Afterwards, it started charging properly again. At least, it did once... now its not charging again.

So to clarify, it was purchased brand new less then 3 months ago & am using the included(stock) charger. Tablet is not rooted either.

Anyone know how to fix this?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dmarchant:
Are you also using the supplied cable? I have found some third-party cables only allow a very slow charge even with stock charger. As the cable can make a difference, it may be you just have a fault with the cable.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d4rkkn16ht:
There are several reason that causing charging problem:

Broken Cable

Broken Charger

Wattage usage is larger than wattage charging

Broken charging port

Broken battery (rare)

Check which one is your problem

Use Battery Monitor Widget to monitor Wattage / Amperage.

Usually correct Amperage is around 1000 - 1600 mAh (factory Cable+charger)

It depends on usage.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] voxigenboy:
I'm using both the cable and wall adapter/charger that came with the Note.

I did notice that the wall adapter that came with my Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 is also 2A 5W so I give it a try for the heck of it. Still no luck.

I could disassemble the Note no problem, would just suck if I had to buy a new battery as they're $70.
