Wait...*228 worked for you? I thought that was a no-go for us? But if it updated your PRL it must have at least sort of worked. I always thought I was never supposed to do a *228 as that would mess things up.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] uconnpat:
Yeah it worked and screwed things up!!! I think that is where I went wrong I did the *228 and got a new prl that didn't work well

But thanks to this thread I think I'm good again... I think I'm on the newest Pacman and so far so good but when I reboot it takes a while to normalize

[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grokit:
I just noticed that my nandroid backups made from CM recovery (v6.0.4.7) end up in /data/media/clockworkmod/backup...

This is eating up my /data partition and finally the backup stops with an error. After booting, I see the partition is full and I get a lot of error messages. I can recover from that by deleting the partial backup files with ES Filemanager in root mode from /data/media/clockworkmod/backup.

In the recovery menu I see /sdcard as the destination. Looking with ES Filemanager at /sdcard, I find the correct location for the backup files in /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/... So it seems to me that there is no problem with /sdcard. At least not visible by ES Filemanager.

What happened here? Wrong link? Bug in CM-based Recovery v6.0.4.7 or in the last tenderloin nightly I have installed?

This is an HP Touchpad with 10.2-20140412-UNOFFICIAL-tenderloin. I usually do weekly backups before I install a new nightly. So, with 10.2-20140405-UNOFFICIAL-tenderloin the backup still worked fine. Unfortunately I deleted that older version, so I can't go back and check.

I am not sure where the problem is. I can do online nandroid backup and point my backup to the right location. But with CM-based Recovery v6.0.4.7 I can't change the backup destination.

Any pointer is much appreciated.

[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomashix:
Hi!

I've got my Xperia SP for about 6-7 months. Since the release of 4.3 i started to experience massive ammount of problems.

I've rooted my phone, and flashed it with the first possible ver. of offcicial Android 4.3 (Normally i should wait for my Carier to release the 4.3 with branding).

I was quite happy to have a new system etc.etc., but i decided to install Existenz ROM.....

After that, I realised few things:

My rear camera became extremely blurry and "Milky"

My phone started to overheat during simple things

I barely can open a message app, due to 1-2minutes lag in this app

The same thing happend to contacts (Only theese 2 apps)

Many of apps started to crash for no reason

My battery is a one big joke. It can discharge from 40-50% to 0 in less then hour of surfing the web

(The SMS and Contacts lag, doesn't affect only the offcial system apps, but every app, that allows you to reach contacts or SMS)

Also when i turned on my phone for the 1 time, i've got the information to wait for a power off button, then the big power off button appeared, i clicked it and the phone reset.

All theese things werent noticable at first (excluding the camera), but after some time, all of them are getting worst and worst.

I Flashed the original 4.3 system. Nothing.

I Repaired it with PC COMPANION.... Nothing.

Got no else idea... The service&guarantee i think is not possible for me :/

INFO FOR GEEKS:

MODEL - C5303

[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrjraider:
Either repair with Sony Update Service or reflash stock ROM with my tutorial.

(But this is for Stock ROM)

About issues with ExistenZe... I've read some more issues.. Best is to wait for a fix from the developer...

You could also try a reinstall of that ROM
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Akosh84:
Hi!

When the stock 4.3 rom installed, my SP freezd and restarted like an old CGA monitor.

After I installed the eXistenZ Ultra 3.3.0, it stoped restarting, but started overheating.

It overheats only when its in standby mode.

I installed CPU temp monitor from Xposed and it shows, that the "normal" temp is 36-37C, but usually its about 47-51, and some times it heats up to 60-61C while in standby!

If I start charging it cools down to 39-42C.

I checked the memory booster to do not close the overheat system app but I never seen that app running.

Could someone help me?

P.s: sorry for the english:)

Thanks for reading the post...I am very frustrated with this device and want to see if ANYONE can help me...

First, the power button...I can turn the device on, but it will not turn the device off...it only lights on the screen backlight or turns the screen backlight off...I can't power it off, no matter how long I press it for...Therefore I have to take tha battery out to power off...which is not good for data!

Second, the backlight on battery level resets itself to 0 (thus a near black screen until I can get it into a bright light and go in and activate the backlight on battery level to 1 at least) Why is this doing this, and it only happens every 5-6 times I power the device on...

Thanks for your help everyone!!!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Accessories] StevePritchard:
As far as I know, there is no way to actually power off the JasJar/Universal - it's always in a standby mode unless you pull the battery.

Not sure about your other issue though - sorry.

Cheers,

Steve.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Accessories] richardlai:
It resets the backlight settings probably because it has "forgotten" your previous settings due to the way you "power off" your Universal. It is a phone, not a laptop, so it only goes into standby mode.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Accessories] choycm:
Sounds like you are pressing and holding down the power button for too long. To turn on/off the device, just tap on the power button once and don't hold it down. Hope that helps! :wink:

I've been reading through the rooting threads for AT&T's 3.18 firmware and have concluded that it can be rooted. However, the only thread I have found with a working procedure was done for a linux OS. I do not have access to a computer running linux (nor can I set one up with lack of hardware available). Does anyone have access to a thread that clearly defines what I must do to root, unlock, and then S-off my HTC One X running 3.18?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cuzzo94:
Hi all.

With every custom rom i flash on my htc one x i have this little but annoying problem: the notification dropdown animation is jerky. It doesen't happen in every situation. For example in settings screen it's very smooth, this issue is present especially on the home screen. Except for go launcer, on every other launcher the animation is very slow and laggy.

I post this here because i discovered that this "bug" is present also on other phones.

Have anyone found a solution?

It's annoyng and it makes the phone look slow and old :rolleyes:

Another little thing: is there a way to disable the dim effect during notification pulldown? I think it can slow down the animation a little

Thank you very much

First of all sorry if the same thread is already here... I did alot of searching... I asked alot of ppl in here or in g+ searched google and I still have no answer for my problem...

About my problem now... I'm having this for along time... Not quite sure how long...

I was never the user who posts screenshots saying how my n5 lasts 5h sot... My max was 3h...

So for a very long time I'm struggling with my battery life.. It's great while the phone sleeps but when you open the screen my torture begins...

I have try alot of thinks.... Asop roms.... Caf roms... Stock kernels... Custom kernels... Caf kernels... And still nothing....

I just keep getting a lot of Android system drain... While I'm looking my apps non of them.. Expect our battery beloved Facebook... Drains battery... But while I'm looking the statistics tab on battery widget I found out that system_server and surfaceflinger usage was not extremely big... Considering that their usage is 15-20mins on 10h battery cycle... But still their drain on battery stats was equal to 2hour sot...

I didn't find any solution to that... I disable locations... I use only gps... Or only wifi/data always with location report and location history off...

I remove alot of apps... I even remove google play music cause I saw a wakelock with 0% drain but with 300 starts... Nothing... I hit a dead end... So anyone is willing to help I will be thankful....

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
As the post above says, looks good.

You're doing a lot of battery draining things ....calls, games.... Location services is on....3 to 4 hours screen time is about as good as you're gonna see with this sorta usage.

If you want 5 or 6 hours screen time like some....you'd have to make hardly any calls, don't play games, keep your screen dim, turn off location services completely... Etc. Etc. That's how I'm setup, and always get 6 hours plus screen time and 24 hours plus total. But some people don't want to setup like this....so with "everything on", games, calls..... 4 hours screen is about the max....in 16 hours or so total perhaps.

So again.....you have no issue. Its just how you use your phone. ;)

15-20%.... Maybe I'm just insane.... I don't know really....

Σεντ φρομ μυ Νεχυς 5
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
it really does relate to what your doing with the phone, what apps you use, etc. even 15-20% can be normal. more than 25% could be excessive though.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Remember, these stats do not show the percentage of your full battery being used. It's not 20% of 100% of your battery. These stats show a percentage breakdown of your used battery.

So if your battery is at 80% and you used 20% of your battery, these stats add up to 100% of that used 20%

These stats will always add up to 100% it can never be less so sometimes it's not worth worrying so much about how that 100% is distributed. If you didn't use the phone at all, you would likely see only a few items. Possibly only 2. Cell standby and Android OS and they would add up to 100% - cell 20, Android OS 80 for example. These stats are not indicative of drain. It just means you haven't used much of the other functions enough to lower it.

The more you use a single element (eg screen) the more that element will dominate, reducing everything else. If your phone enjoys varied use, everything will even out more

The % of Android os doesn't necessarily mean drain. What you need to look at is whether the phone lasts as long as expected and to me it seems it does
