[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reas0n:
Hello friends.

As all of us see, LG released their KitKat sources long time ago. Our great developers like [MENTION=5232783]dr87[/MENTION] [MENTION=4316709]Savoca[/MENTION] [MENTION=4852479]houstonn[/MENTION] and others made it with Their hard work to merge them so we have two stable / nearly stable roms: Mahdi and PA. But what with other roms? Most of the roms are based on CM, so they still have bugs.. During months, CM doesn't seem to have done ANYTHING.

So my question is, how about to send a message (or spam, in any way u name it) by all of us to CM, to the maintainer? We have official support, but in fact it's "support without support" in my opinion. Maybe after these messages they would finally start to do something, because it's like they forgot about G2...

Regards.

EDIT: so we have a way to contact => https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/secure/Dashboard.jspa

now we should make a well, polite message so everyone would copy it and drop there.

Another way it would be to ask the maintainer directly https://plus.google.com/+RicardoCerqueira

EDIT2: I gave a comment to Ricardo on Google+ here https://plus.google.com/+RicardoCerqueira/posts/4dc8kVBYuTq feel free to do it as well :)
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Airidas:
The best bet would be to create an improvement note at their so called "Bug Tracker" considering that they are doing this for free, this would be the most polite form.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vittogn:
I support this initiative, but today be entirely honest M6 for me is almost bug free, fast and battery efficient.

Up to date sources is great, but if a rom is working well, I don't care if the sources are old!

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reas0n:
could u give a link please? so we could prepare a message and then everyone would leave it there

I personally had CM for some time, and it never was so stable as Mahdi R1 which i have now. Besides that, a lot of roms like Carbon or Slim can't be simply updated from CM sources, so they still have bugs.

Thanks, so anyone is, i would say, good in kind speaking to prepare a message? :D

Oh and we could also use Google+ and ask the maintainer directly https://plus.google.com/+RicardoCerqueira

Replyed 2 times to posts in his google + account with message " When LG G2 is going to have updated KK sources? A lot of people are waiting for bug-free CM and CM-based 4.4 ROMs ". I hope that all you guys do the same.Cheers
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr87:
Just to clarify, roms that are based on CM do not need CM to upgrade to 4.4.2 sources. The upgrade is done in the device tree / vendor files and kernel. The rom source does not need any changes and each rom maintainer for the G2 has the power to upgrade their rom to 4.4.2 G2 sources without CM doing anything, they just need to figure out the specific device tree bugs for each rom and fix them.

I am under the impression you think CM needs to upgrade in order for CM based roms to upgrade, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong :good:
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shriom_manerker:
apparently theres a bit of confusion, there was some one nightly where the rotation wasnt working with the jb baseband, (im gussing on that nightly he used the kk source ) because flashing the kk baseband on that build fixed the rotation issue, but im not quiet aware of what the situation is ince im back on stock. anyways ill be swinging it on the latest nightly just to clarify my doubts. and im pretty sure they just want the maintainer to switch to kk source :) , btw nice to see you here :) hope your cooking something great for us :D
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reas0n:
Well, in the past I had some Android phones, and CyanogenMod was always first with upgrading everything, and then other developers were basing their ROMs on these updates. I mean, they updated everything, end other ROMs were updated fast. They're not giving support which they were giving in the past, that's all.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LenAsh:
Did you get a response from Ricardo?

[Moto X Q&A] shane1:
I read it was if I can find the article I'll add the link. http://www.droid-life.com/2014/05/17/verizon-xlte-phones-tablets/
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
It was enabled in the 4.4 ROM.

And the spec's on Verizon's web site properly reflect the X supports LTE Band 4 and 13. Moto has not yet updated its web page.
[Moto X Q&A] drozek:
how do we check what band our Moto X is on?
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
You can't. The X does not tell you.

The way I tested is by putting my T-Mobile SIM into my Verizon X, and got T-Mobile LTE. This is because T-Mobile also uses Band 4. With 4.2.2, my X only got Edge on T-Mobile SIM.
[Nexus 5 General] Moynia:
I got 99 problems but my battery life ain't 1.

How to get the best battery life out of your Nexus 5

1. Location Services : If you are not in a neighborhood with a lot of wifi spots you will most likely feel this draining your battery life. Under settings make sure that Location Services is set to battery saving and not High accuracy.

2. Widgets : Weather widgets, games eat battery by constantly fetching information . Check the settings for these widgets and make sure they are using wifi and not updating the weather information every 30 mins or so. I keep my settings to update weather information every hour to keep it reasonable. The Gmail widget sometimes eats your battery too. I removed the widget and used an icon in the dock at the bottom to check my email.

3. Restart your phone : Sometimes residual processes from closed apps could cause issues. Restart your phone if you haven't done it in a while and it should clear up any unnecessary things.

4. Keep wifi on during sleep : I made sure my phone uses wifi even when its sleeping. 3g / 4g eats the battery like crazy if you turn off wifi when your phone sleeps. This should be a default setting as pointed out by some users. In my case it had been changed probably when I was tinkering with the phone. You can find this setting in the Settings -> Wifi -> advanced -> Keep wifi on during sleep.

You can also use apps like Greenify , Tasker , and Llama.

5. Don't use Automatic Brightness : Turns out if the sensors are constantly looking to adjust brightness it takes up more battery. I set my brightness at around 60% and it works just fine throughout the day.

6. Use wifi over 3G/4G/LTE if possible

7. Switch off wifi when using Data: Android doesnt switch off your WiFi when you use data because Google wants you to use it for Locations and help build their database of networks.Switch off WiFi completely when using data to save a good chunk of battery.

8. Turn off Vibration on touch : Typing uses quite a bit of battery over the course of a day. Try switching Vibration on touch off.

9. Use Franco Kernel: : This will require rooting your device however it makes it a lot more power efficient.

10. Turn down the Facebook refresh rate : Make sure it updates not very often( every 3-4 hours) or never. IMO your phone is better off without Facebook or any other battery hog social networking apps.

11. Greenify: Works with and without root. Use Greenify to hibernate apps when they should not be running in the background. This is best used for games that fetch information about deals or daily events (i.e. Battle Nations or Real Racing 3)

Feel free to add anything to my list.
[Nexus 5 General] simms22:
4, 6, and 7.. it would all depend on your signal quality. i get MUCH better battery life on lte than on wifi. and i mean much! i get 5-6 hour screen on time without doing anything special. on wifi i get an hour to hour and a half less. so the wifi thing is just in your situation, and not for everyone.

9.. there are better kernels than franco kernel. and on top of that, kernels have so little influence on battery life. battery life is mostly about your personal use, your personal setup, your choice of apps used, and very much on the quality of your phone/data connection. everything else has very little influence, including kernels.
[Nexus 5 General] akash3656:
3. This I agree. I've had super strange battery drain if I don't restart the phone once in a few days. I refuse to believe its a bad app as there are no wakelocks, seems to be more of a phone idle battery drain or radio drain.

4. To be honest, it depends on the WiFi network. Some WiFi networks (typically at universities) have a strange and outright horrible battery drain the moment you connect to their network and leave the screen off.

6. Again to not repeat what I said earlier, I get better battery life if I connect to LTE instead of my school's WiFi. Download speeds over LTE are 2-5x greater than my school's WiFi, so race to idle may be happening here.

7. Most android phones today have minimal battery drain with WiFi left turned on. But it doesn't hurt turning WiFi off if there are many weak known WiFi networks around you.

8. Not sure how much you'll save, I don't even recall much of an increase of battery with this off. YMMV situation I suppose.

9. I've had better battery life with other kernels. Again it's a YMMV situation.

Not a bad guide really :)

Another tip is that if Google Play services keeps your phone awake for a long time, revert Google Search to an older version, reboot the phone. The wakelocks should be drastically reduced.

Using Nexus 5 with:

CyanogenMod Nightlies

ElementalX kernel

1d 2h 9ms on battery / 2h 17ms screen-on time / with 38% remaining!
[Nexus 5 General] Darth:
Good information! ?

Only thing I'd say is to just remove the part about kernel completely. As said above, kernel makes little difference. I get 24 plus hours and 6 hours screen time on any ROM or kernel. It's all setup and usage.
[Nexus 5 General] kurtyyyyyy:
Nothing new here. Good for noobs, but most will have done this already
[Nexus 5 General] Awesomepie85:
I have found that turning location off completely has helped my battery life tremendously. While I was barely able to make it through the day before, now I can easily pass by with 40% or something and light usage. I've tried other things but nothing has improved my battery life as much as turning location off.
[Nexus 5 General] Darth:
Yup! :) That's what toggles are for. Need it? 2 clicks and its on. That's always my advice.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asturvm:
hi all! ...1st of all excuse my bad English! ;)

I have one spanish tablet (bq kepler 2) second hand bought with broken digitizer. I deep search online stores for replace and finally found one apparently exactly ...glass and flex fit perfect but, of course, (murphy's law) when i use it x-axis are inverted in portrait mode and y-axis in landscape orientation.

i try to search for a solution & only found solution for allwiner based tablets with an easy modify script file. Unfortunately in rockchip (rk2918) i dont find any solution to manage touchscreen configuration. Also i try to calibrate but no cant find app for it.

i think the solution are related to load/unload modules on kernel or modify kernel itself...but im newbie in android and dont know howto. Digitizer chipset its ft5x and i dont find any module loaded for it (lsmod) only touchscreen related file on sys/.../virtual directory...

any solution? thx!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] StephanSch:
I modified the NfcNci.apk of different bases and ROMs to offer you the ability to use the NFC chip of your T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5 not only while you are active but also while the screen is off and/or while the lockscreen is shown.

You have three options when to use NFC:

lockscreen and screen off

lockscreen

unlocked

USAGE

Rename the attachment to NfcNci.apk

Backup your /system/app/NfcNci.apk and NfcNci.dex (if existing)

Delete /system/app/NfcNci.dex (if existing)

Replace the original in /system/app - to keep permission use adb:

adb remount

adb push NfcNci.apk /system/app

Reboot phone (adb reboot)

Disable NFC

Enable NFC

The compatibility depends on the framework/base. If your ROM has the same specifications like one existing you can use the posted.

If none of the version work (test it!) make an Feature Request

Changelog

19.05.2014 - thread opened with Stock 4.4.2/Project Infinity

Please don't forget to thank if it works, if not we will make it work.

Hi, can you make this mod for samsum galaxy s5 international (SM-G900F).

I would be grateful.

Thank you
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] dustintinsley:
2 questions.

1) does it effect battery life if you have it so you can use nfc with screen off

2) can this not be done with Wanam? I see the option, just not sure if it actually works thru Wanam.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] StephanSch:
Hi. Excuse the delay, I forgot to set the notification for this thread.

Did you try the version from op? I don't think t-mobile is using much different framework, so it could work.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] StephanSch:
1) For sure but I haven't read of anybody that it is noticeable.

2) I don't know Wanam. If you prefer it use it. There are also other Xposed mods for some time. I don't know how these mods implement the functionality but I know that the S5 has a much different NFC implementation than other devices i.e. because they handle the usage with the S View Cover.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] RedRamage:
Tested on my Verizon. Doesn't seem to work here. Bummer.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] RedRamage:
Interestingly... I tried the "Screen off" mod and that one DOES work on my Verizon... so, Thanks for the this!!

Just make a scan and clean your device from viruses etc.

The developer of the rom wouldn't make something that would harm your device.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] deeznuts:
Rom and firmware and radios in theory should all have nothing to do with carrier service. You have a Verizon SIM card in ur phone, u then have Verizon service. That's how under it at least. Come on, it's a cell phone carrier. Just cuz they say it's released today u really think it will be working 100% in all those cities on day 1? Some wishful thinking my friend. Give it some time.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] huger82:
In Grand Rapids, Michigan I see speeds of around 125mbs at my work at our house witch is about 12 miles away I'm see about 70mbs down.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Lopan12:
Just keep in mind, that it's an increase in bandwidth. It doesn't necessarily mean you'll get higher speed tests....it'll all be dependent on how much your prior speed tests were bandwidth limited...with all the variables that entails...

So, while you might not see any higher speeds than you've gotten, it would be reasonable to expect that you'll see those highest speeds for consistently. Dont' forget those random super-low speed tests you occasionally get, and tend to ignore... :D
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] xRogerxC:
Now your speeds are representative of what I would call impressive if true! I'm in Springfield MO, which is not XLTE yet, and I get 38Mbps down and 14Mbps up. I'm looking forward to XLTE getting here someday. For those posting their speeds, it would be helpful if you would post your latency as well. Even though I get decent speeds right now, my latency normally runs 59-110ms right now, so I'm not impressed with that!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jasonxlee01:
So apparently "XLTE" uses LTE Band 4 while Verizon's original "4GLTE" uses LTE Band 13. I know that our phone supports both bands. However, is there a way to know which band the phone is connected to at a given time?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Sevinex:
Holy crap man, here I am wishing I could experience just a fourth of those speeds, hell even an eighth... I am not sure if it is my area (San Diego mind you), or the fact that I still live on campus (the sheer volume of phones here *could* be congesting the network, but I have a feeling it instead has to do with my dorm's resemblance to a prison, signal blocking walls and all) but I barely break 3 MBs download and 2 MBs upload. Hopefully XLTE will improve on my data speeds at some point in the near future. Back in Tucson, where I used to live, I was sitting comfy with 30+ MBs download and 20+ MBs upload... Those were the days.
