I turned off Google Now and turned off Step notifications. I don't need or care for those functions. It has now been 6 hours off charger and is at 75% still. Light notification and text response use only. I don't need it to tell me how long it will take to get home or need it to tell me the temperature without me asking.

I had also shut off Google now on my phone a while back.

Google Now was running yesterday and watch lasted me 12hrs. Hopefully it will be longer, now that it is off
[Moto 360] PaulG1488:
Why even buy the watch if you're not going to use google now ?
[Moto 360] Character Zero:
So I am doing a very unscientific "standby" battery test. I charged it up to 100% and put it in a drawer. I can't wear it at work so I thought I would just let it sit and see how long it lasts. I should have put it in Airplane mode, but I forgot. The phone is with me during the day and across the house the BT connection isn't great so it connected maybe about 10% of the time. Right now I am looking at battery drain of 1% per hour.
[Moto 360] its_dale:
I still get notifications for calls and texts and all my apps. Thats what i bought the watch for. Why do i need it to tell me how far from home i am when im not even going home? If i want to know the weather, i'll ask it. I dont need it updating me on things other than my apps. The watch is still functional. Navigation works, google searching works, etc.

Moto 360 app says "Turn on Google Now - Info when you need it w/out searching. For example: weather, flight status, traffic before leaving work and more." those examples alone are not important to me

I bought the watch so I can communicate w/out fumbling around getting my phone when im driving or with my 8 month old son. I can walk around the house phone free too. I like not having to check my phone so much just to see if someone is trying to get a hold of me.
[Moto 360] kuronosan:

[Moto 360] Predator04:
how did you turn it off?
[Moto 360] Pandawg:
My battery is terrible. It died today from 8 to 4. I used it a lot I guess in my Chem lab as a stopwatch. I did 6 trials of 4 minutes each. That's only 24 minutes of screen time but it died very fast because of it.
[Moto 360] Predator04:
mine came off at 9:30 this morning and died at 3:38pm. how did you get such good battery lmao
[Moto 360] Pandawg:
Haha. I'm considering returning it for a Pebble Steel. The watch is so sexy, but the battery life and the stutters are see kind of kill it for free. I'll give it until this weekend.

[Moto 360] CandyAndy:
Does it already have some scratches on this pic? lower left side. I am worried if it looks very scratched after a months use.
[Moto 360] ChrisAshton84:
Used Sleep as Android again last night for 5 1/2 hours and it was at 5% when I woke up.. 100% when I put it on. For this use there needs to be some way to disable the screen from turning on, except when you press the button on the side. I suspect moving around at night I was accidentally turning it on a lot.
[Moto 360] chaco81:
Thanks for the input, i am planning on buying this app once i get my 360... can you use it a few more times at night and determine if your results are a pattern and or if the screen keeps turning on...

Thanks!:good:
[Moto 360] superflybribri:
I just finished my first day of use yesterday. I picked it up off the charger around 8:30am and put it back on at 10:30pm with about 10% charge left. I did use it a little more than I would on a traditional day because I was showing off the features to a couple different people. This is only my first day so I was also playing around with it a lot, changing watch faces and loading apps. I will report back as my usage becomes more normalized.
[Moto 360] its_dale:
I don't know if it stops counting, but what I did is..

1. Disconnect watch from phone (not sure if its necessary)

2. press once on the watch and the menu will pop up

3.select "show me my steps" then scroll all the way to the right and Show Step Card should be OFF.

Did you guys hear about this? I'm 7% more disappointed in the 360 now.
[Moto 360] razball:
Lol yea that's disappointing but I am still impressed with it as it almost can reach what the others can and it has an old man of a processor and a always on heart monitor etc and a smaller batt.
[Moto 360] Mr Ian B:
No scratches, just angle and lighting. I am very conscious of scratching it.

[Moto 360] ChrisAshton84:
It lasted longer a couple of nights ago. However, I just used it for a round of golf and it only made it 3 hours or so, maybe 12-13 holes out of the 18. I was w/o cell signal so no messages were coming in, I was just using the Swing by Swing golf app. I'm guessing, though I never noticed, that on each swing the phone might have been waking up. I will try to find an app to disable screen wakeup from movement and try both the golf app and sleep app again.
[Moto 360] Lolento:
This is my second day of use.

For 8 hours of pretty heavy use. Navigation in the morning. A lot of agenda, email and messaging alerts; and alot of playing with it like checking how many steps I took and heart beat checking. I still have 60% battery.
[Moto 360] Character Zero:
Update for my standby/drawer test. I am at 51 hours and have 39% battery left. So I would say a good 3.5-4 days without use before the battery is done. This may seem pointless but I wanted to see what my charging habits can be. I can charge it, maybe not put it on the next day, but have enough juice to wear it the next day or even a few hours on the 3rd day before hitting the charger again.
[Moto 360] kuronosan:
This is why I think there's a problem with some units.

This battery is very inconsistent at best, and seems like the calibration info is way off.

[Moto 360] johnomaz:
I'm on day 2 of full use and still toying with it. All notifications go to my watch and I am always looking at it. Its been off the dock for 13 hours and its at 72%. Seriously, I've had no issue with the battery life. I've been playing with it constantly and the brightness is on auto. I really wonder if the phone has to do with battery life in terms of the bluetooth connection. I dunno, I've been super happy with the watch, battery life hasn't been an issue for me personally and I haven't tried to reduce use to extend the battery.
[Moto 360] jrdejavux:
how can we disable the heart beat monitoring?
[Moto 360] compuw22c:
Maybe people with very good or very poor battery life could start posting their phone models. It's possible that devices without full bt le support are killing the watch battery more quickly? Seems to be quite a spread of reports of battery life, maybe we could track a potential battery drain "bug" that way (ie, we discover all Samsung phones cause faster battery drain. Not true, but an example of what we may uncover).
[Moto 360] bobbyricha:
Will that band allow the watch to lay flat for charging on a different charger or does it remain in a loop?
[Moto 360] spinedoc:
The pebble band is pretty inflexible, it won't lay flat.
[Moto 360] Mr Ian B:
Stays in a loop bit works perfect w original charger.

[Moto 360] Locklear308:
That defies ALL the reviews and other real life tests.

What are your settings?
[Moto 360] johnomaz:
Thats exactly what I have been thinking. My wife always says I defy physics when it comes to battery life. My LG G3 has amazing battery life too. I'm talking about no conservative use during the day and 40% at bed time on it.

My settings are pretty stock. Brightness set to auto. All notifications on my phone are sent to my watch. As I mentioned, i have been using the heart rate monitor frequently. I use the classic watch face and I did change the background to black as a preference but it will help with battery life (black is more efficient), vibration is still on for notifications, pedometer is on. When I stream music the card shows up and I find myself using my watch to pause and play over my phone now. I've used voice commands to set reminders, use timers, etc. I really haven't been easy on the battery, just playing with it as its really a cool device. Yesterday it was off the charger for 15 hours and was at 42% or so battery when I put it on the charger at bed time.

I really do believe it has to do with the phone it is connected to. Perhaps the bluetooth connection or something needs more power to keep a good connection. I really have no idea but I've been confused by the reviews myself. Perhaps there are people using it so much that I look like a mild user but I honestly have been playing with it a lot. Trying new apps, new watch faces and such. I'm suddenly interested in what the weather is like all the time now too. Maybe its a manfacturing problem with the battery or something and the people that are having the issue are the ones posting about bad battery life. The ones with good battery life haven't needed to check the web or anything.
[Moto 360] razball:
With the G3 did you have to switch to using Hangouts? Or can you still use normal text app?
[Moto 360] spinedoc:
Hmm, well got some really weird battery results today. Last 2 days battery life has seemed decent, pretty much in line with what everyone else is getting. Today it really really sucked, not sure why. I woke up at 7am, played with the watch faces and other stuff in bed for about 30 minutes and was surprised to see it had gone from 100% to 62% in just that time!! I know screen time kills it, but that seems kind of onerous.

Well I recharged it and left the house at 10am for some meetings. I just got home and it's at 29%, this is with ambient mode off. I barely used it, but I'm thinking I was driving a lot and others have said this may be an issue. Still 71% seems kind of crazy for 3 hours of not even using it.

Also has anyone had an issue answering calls? When I answer calls on my phone I don't hear the other persons voice, it's almost like their voice is being routed to a Bluetooth device, but the only BT device I have connected is the watch. When I break the connection I can get calls just fine, but sometimes when it's connected to the watch I can't hear anyone talking. This is on a Note 3. Weird, but it's never happened before and only happens when it's connected to the watch.

Hi TTGZDOG,

I recommend you visit sammobile.com and lookup the specific region and model of your tablet there. They should have what you need.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
Sammobile.com does not have the USA firmware, but they do have the Canadian firmware, not sure what the difference would be, but you could try it.

Have you installed Kies and see if it can do a recover?

I haven't been able to fully take advantage of my rooted phone and I get tired of re reading and trying to use other roms and doing back up and always finding myself clueless and returning here to ask you guys what where the steps by steps guide.

I can't get another phone yet because I have a contract with AT&T and it will take a few more months.

I am using SlimBean rom probably a very old version and I haven't update it yet and well I get many bugs and other issues such as my pho0ne restarting when playing videos on full screen.

Sometimes I feel desperate and just want to restart from scratch and unroot the phone by installing the latest update of the official phone.

So, the phone is practically unscratched and well taken cared if any of you are interested.

Suggestions are welcome.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
Asking price? Age of phone?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Harkadenn:

Age would be... around 2 years or so...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
I would except I am in Canada and you're probably in the USA.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Larry2999:
Have you tried going to Swappa.com? You'd probably get a better selling price there than on places like that online auction site. Plus you don't pay any fees and it's the XDA recommended option for buying and selling phones.

Seriously though, you may want to revert to a full stock ROM to fix the performance issues. Reverting to a stock ROM would often let you know if any performance issues are firmware or hardware based as different custom ROMs often come with their peculiar issues.

Hello!

I have an AT&T Note 3 running on root and I've noticed that my Lightflow & Swapps app keeps automatically force closing at random times in the day.... this never happened before until I decided to root my phone, and even then, in the beginning everything was running smoothly. Any idea of what could be causing this? I am using the NOVA launcher but I wouldn't see why that would cause an issue... and on Kitkat 4.4, I'd appreciate anyone's input!
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speedyjay:
Get rid of lightflow! It just sucks up your battery!
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TagYouRPregnant:
Do you recommend an alternative app that does the same? It's never given me any battery issues.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speedyjay:
Me personally, I recommend none because they all drain battery. How much usage do you get out of your battery before you have to charge it? I get around 1d 8hrs with moderate usage.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TagYouRPregnant:
From what I do, it actually does last me a while but I do have to charge it when I am at work. From 9 to about 3:30p.m I have to charge it because it's at 10% due to me watching Netflixs all through my work shift, including lunch, while also texting back and forth whenever I need to. My shift ends at 5:30, so by then it's at 100% because I started charging it around 3:30p.m. On a day like the weekend, I hardly use my phone at all since I have my PC so my batter life lasts a really long time without me having to charge it by the end of the day and even then I have about 60%. On a day where I am up and about, my batter lasts me till about 40% all day until I have to charge it. I hope that makes any sense. I don't pay much attention to my battery life since all I use my phone for is netflixs while I am at work and SOMETIMES some gaming, but not all the time. I also hardly call or text anyone.

I may be getting a US Cellular S5, Will I be able to root it and will it void any warranty?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
1. Try Google for possible exploits for rooting like here https://www.google.nl/search?q=US+C... Cellular s5 root&rls=org.mozilla:nl:official.

2. Yes, rooting may void warranty unless you live in Europe.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fffft:
It probably won't affect your warranty but you should search this forum and ask the carrier to have better assurance of that. Certainly Samsung will try to tell you that rooting will void a warranty. But when you buy a phone through a carrier, you do not normally deal directly with Samsung for warranty issues. Which is good because many carriers don't care about rooting or the Knox flag, while Samsung does.

For example, many people and at least one TMB CSR have posted that rooting is basically a non-issue with respect to warranty claims handled by TMB. I only know one person who made a claim with USC and he didn't have a problem either. But one datum is not enough to characterize USC's behaviour. You should ask around to find out how they generally address this question.

And if your phone is still functional at the time of a claim, you should unroot it just for prudence.

well we could at least unlock the bootloader for now since that is the easiest thing to do and most certainly wise when we first unbox so we wont lose any data like if we have been using it for a few days.
