[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
fastboot devices only works in fastboot/bootloader mode and adb works when booted (with USB Debugging enabled) or via most custom recoveries. Did you install a custom recovery or just root? If just root, it might just be easier to return the device to stock and reroot.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theprakhar:
If you are running any custom rom..extract that zip...copy that build.prop to sd card...now using Root Explorer on your phone copy it and head on to /system...delete the build.prop and paste the new one..and Reboot.

P.S.:Remember to Mount R/W before pasting it.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
Don't think he can use his phone well enough to make that work. according to the way the pictures look, which is why I didn't suggest that one. All apps are going to be like that and it's not something you can scroll around in like you would if you zoomed in on the browser or something similar.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theprakhar:
Opz..my bad...i forgot that this is only his problem......yup...but still one other option left...he can install the zip of the rom which he is currently using WITHOUT formatting or wiping...just over-writing...It might work..
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] JoeFCaputo113:
This is REALLLYYY a PITA but as of right now I'm pretty sure it actually worked. So if your Android System is taking up 25%+ and higher than your screen for taking up battery (in Settings--->Battery stats), then try this. As of right now my screen is #1 and Android System is only at 15%!

**Try this while your charging your phone to 100% to see if it actually worked!!**

1. Download and install Kies3.

2. Copy all contents of your ext SD Card to your computer.

3. Go into Settings-->Scroll down to System and click on Storage.

4. Format your ext SD Card by pressing "Format SD Card".

5. Go into Kies3 and and copy all of your contents back onto your SD Card.

6. Once that process is finished, download SD Scanner.

7. Go into the SD Scanner app and scan the internal storage (default one) and ext SD Card (/storage/extSdCard <-- must be typed exactly like that).

8. Reboot your phone once your phone has hit 100%.

9. See if it worked for you, hope this helps, and if it doesn't then I'm sorry but it worked well for me!
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] timothylockhart:
What exactly does this do? Just wondering but thanks for your active posts you have some really helpful stuff here
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] JoeFCaputo113:
It made the Android System battery drain go down, and instead of Android System being the #1 battery drainer, screen is!
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] crazymook:
But what does it actually do? Put media scanner to sleep (something that was a HUGE problem on the s3 - media scanner always running)?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] timothylockhart:
This is more what I was asking what cons does this have
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] JoeFCaputo113:
It scans ALLL of your media for you (hence why I said to scan internal, then your ext Sd Card). Thus eliminating the need for Android to scan your media.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] crazymook:
Pretty sure media scan would still run tho...no? Especially if ure taking pics, adding music, etc etc.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] JoeFCaputo113:
Yes but if you're like me and have a 32GB EXT SD card and have 28 Gigs worth of stuff on it... Then it deff works and is worth it lol.

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] timothylockhart:
Well i tried it... Will hope for the best but..... Kies wouldnt let me add any of my files I carry on my SD card like my titanium backup youtube apk or ceberus apk....

only media files...

Also I have heard of people just removing their sd card and getting god like battery maybe we just have junk sd cards? Planning on getting a 32gb micro class 10 soon enough....

---------- Post added at 06:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:52 PM ----------

So how do you add non multimedia files through kies? what does this sd scanner do? caches it or? Like i dont see how this does anything at all i have heard people talking about removing their micro sd card and getting a huge boost of battery so maybe I just have a junk one planning on getting a micro sd 32gb class 10 soon
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] RevelationOmega:
Noticed this method of Wipe SD Card in another thread, seemed to have worked for me as well. Now battery drain most from screen.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] iDoc21:
I'm getting terrible Android System drain as well. I've greenified everything and battery life is noticeably improved, but AS drain is still top battery hog. Guess I'll try removing my SD card and if that works I'll wipe it. Pretty frustrating though that this is an issue
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] JoeFCaputo113:
What are you guys formatting your SD Card to? (what format)
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] timothylockhart:
Formatted it to whatever phone formats too... this actually really worked and helped but can I add files to my sd card and such as normal or am o limited now
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] MikeyLee:
I'll try this and report back also. I'm on a Note 3 with the S5 port. It's going to take a long time to move over 50gb of stuff back and fourth though lol

I'm in the process of moving around 50gb of files from the card to my PC and then will go back tomorrow and do this. It is actually high time that I re-organize all of the thousands of images on my card anyway. I think I'll store them by quarter to keep to only a few thousand per folder. Thanks!
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] MikeyLee:
This doesnt work. After you start an app or scan folders, for music player for example, Android OS and Android System are right back at the top
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] JoeFCaputo113:
Worked for me. I'm averaging one day six hrs total use with 5hrs on screen time per charge.

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] sleshepic:
After messing around with bloat etc, ive noticed there is Alot more bundled into Android System processes than previously - so worrying that it s very high over previous versions of Android/Twiz might be comparing apples to oranges in a way. And alot of the time I find high system usage doesnt always correlate to battery drain.

Like today it is just below screen usage but getting awesome battery, and the included packages in android system is huge, so i blame it on that
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] jhuff83:
Do we have to use Kies to put the files back on or can we just drag and drop without the program being opened?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] jhuff83:
This is mine with only 16 minutes of screen time after trying what the op said to do.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] beisboller:
Apparently Android System and the OS stay up there regardless of what you do to it. I've uninstalled a lots of apps that I found useless. Turned off location and only use it as needed. Also I greenify almost everything and the lowest ive gotten android system is 20% ...im so frustrated..
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] tweezy_:
What I recommend is turning on powersave mode with the above settings (I kept background data enabled). I got up to 20+ hours yesterday and still had 25%ish battery life before I charged her up again.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] Bigslammu:
So I've been struggling trying to figure out what is draining as well but for me it seems to be the ANT service. Someone else give this a try and see, but if you enable Developer Options, go to Process Stats, in the top right enable show system states, and then click on android system it shows AntService at 100% and FusedLocationService at 1%. Figured I would post this, hadn't seen anyone else talk about the ANT services. I froze them with no problem yet, going to see if this increases my battery life for a day or two.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] jbadboy2007:
I do not have any battery drains. You should make sure Googles location reporting is off and in your Google account don't let stuff sync that's not necessary to you like Picassa or such.

I don't use green if and my screen time as of this was 2.5 hours.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] JoeFCaputo113:
Noticed the same here especially after running your bloatfree ND2 ROM!
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] master4g:
Hey, how has your battery drain been since you have disabled ANT? Most likely it won't cause any harm I'm doing so besides not being able to use a ANT+ heart rate monitor strap.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] BigJPNut:
I get the best battery on stock with everything on! Soon as I root and start debloating and turning things like location off, everything goes downhill.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] slickdealers:
I'm trying this today. I unfroze everything and turned location on.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] BigJPNut:
After I updated and did a factory reset this phone has been nothing but a dream. Good luck
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] master4g:
How was your day of battery yesterday? Any improvement?

---------- Post added at 06:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:34 PM ----------

Hey, did disabling antService improve you android system battery drain?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] slickdealers:
Not much difference for me. The 3% left is with everything frozen, the 11% left is with everything unfrozen.

I'm sure I could have squeezed out a little more at 11%, but I was tired and ready for bed.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] master4g:
Hey, that's still good news. Hat means we can use the phone to the max without worrying about battery. Do you recall the difference in screen on time? Also, what exactly did you keep on? Did you enable high accuracy location? Bluetooth? Google now? Thanks
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] slickdealers:
I think I used the screen a bit more with everything unfrozen than I did with everything frozen. I usually have Bluetooth, Location, and WiFi on all the time. Normally I stream Spotify for 2-3 hours a day. Google Now is always on as well. I have my Google,Yahoo, Facebook, and twitter accounts syncing frequently.

Depending on calls for work, I might use the GPS for 30 minutes. Though I don't think I used it in either of those tests.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] master4g:
OK. I thought it was going to be a more comprehensive "turning off" like, location, bluetooth, google now- all off, along with some frozen apps.

Thats what I have done right now, and still have huge android system drain.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] slickdealers:
It is good though that I have all of these things running and getting a full days worth of use. I wonder what the results would be with nothing syncing, using data, etc. I imagine you could get at least 24 hours with juice to spare.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] jlandry287:
What i usually do when transferring large files or a lot of files is pop my micro sd card out and put it in my standard sd card adapter. put that directly into my sd card slot on my laptop. transferred 18 gb in 15 minutes.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] mtayabkk:
my problem is fixed..

what i did

1.factory reset but still android system suck battery.

2.then i root my mobile remove some google apps and unwanted apps.

3.formated mmc now my problem fixed.

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] socos25:
I have to say after reading this I called BS, but did it anyway, to my great surprise it has made a difference. 42% after 14 hours and 2h 9m screen on time.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] akrod2as:
That's what you get? Ick. I guess I'm lucky.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] socos25:
My drain, I believe, is because of a less than full LTE signal making the radio work hard, but if you're indeed getting two days on your phone, congrats. For me, as long as it last me the day until I plug it in at night I'm good, it is fully charged by morning. I use my phone a lot, everythnig is on, high Accuracy location, syncing three email accounts, etc, so in all honesty I think it is good.

Now if Sprint would get off there buts and make their network competitive I would be all set.

[Lenovo P780] soralz:
Have you rooted your phone? Basically, my method when flashing Vibe ROM:

On CWM 6.0.2.8 > Flash Vibe ROM > Flash Gapps > Flash SuperSU > Wipe data/cache > Reboot.

NOTE: When reboot, you will be asked to disable recovery flash, you must answer yes or else the stock recovery will overwrite the CWM you have. But I am not sure about TWRP.

Else, root your phone using vRoot (Google it), use Mobile Uncle Tools install appropriate recovery and flash back the SuperSU zip via recovery if you don't want the Chinese root management app.

Better to wait for Stable Rom to try.
[Lenovo P780] soralz:
Assume you have checked root with root checker right? Ok, try the CWM in my thread. It's a China version CWM 6.0.2.8. The CWM 6.0.1.5 is ROW version. Choose and flash the correct recovery and you should be ok.

CWM 6.0.2.8 > Best stable recovery ATM from my opinion.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Roefastford:
If your talking about trying to put an at&t radio on a different carrier phone like tmobile, verizon or sprint, dont do it. It will not change your phone to work on at&t because its the hardware that is different.

You can use a tmobile phone on at&t though I dont think you will get at&t LTE though, I think you will get the HSPA and 3g data.

If this is the case trade your phone off or sell it and get an at&t one if you want at&t you would be better off.

Is there anything I am doing wrong?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] lyallb:
I have a wizard, and noticed since upgrading to the latest ROM that AS was a bit dodgy, ie sometimes it would connect and other times not...

What i found out was that if my laptop was NOT connected to the wireless network, then AS would NOT connect to my wizard. But when i was connected to a wireless network AS connected ok to my phone.

It appears that the PC you are connecting to, has to have an IP address, ie connected to a network, for AS to determine what IP address to give to the phone. Otherwise AS just keeps searching and not being able to connect.

I could be wrong but this is what i found out and works for me all the time now.
