Coming from an LG G2 (long story), battery life is what I miss the most. The nexus 4 has about half the screen on time than my g2 did.

I'm already unlocked and rooted but still stock ROM. Are there any Roms that significantly improve battery life?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SMillerNL:
I found smart 3G on Cataclysm to be pretty good at saving battery.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ph37rd:
ROMs and kernels have little to do with battery. Your usage, signal for mobile data and WiFi, screen brightness, your configuration for location services, gps and the like and your apps determine your battery life.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AMQTech:
I'd try Paranoid. I used it for a while after using stock and I found that the battery improved.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
roms have absolutely zilch when it comes to battery life. only thing rims can do with battery is reduce it. generally, the more added mods/features a rom has, the worse the battery life. but not always. battery life is determined by hiw you personally use your phone, how you set it uo, what apps you use, and the quality of your phone/data connection. everything else, including kernels, have a very minimum effect on battery.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Roastmeat:
Well

When I was with Carbon, the play store thing killed my battery to 3hrs on screen time

Switched over to Purity Rom with Hells kernel and I have 5-6 on screen time

WiFi on all the time, no data or GPS or Bluetooth.

Mostly Reddit and a game or two, and a movie
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nuhro:
Not the Rom but the Kernel is decisive :)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd1639:
Kernel doesn't make much of a difference either. See simms22 post above
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nuhro:
Okay, but why is the battery life better with an another kernel?

I use the HeelsCreed kernel and Mahdi rom. My battery life is better with the HeelsCreed kernel as with the Kernel of the Mahdi rom.

P.S.: I know my english is bad, sorry for that :(
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
set up your CPU and everything else just how the kernel sets it up for you, and you'll get the same battery life. be more active, set things up manually.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fahadsul3man:
can you tell the story please , anyway ROM has weee little to do with battery life , its mostly on how you use it and the kernel you are using as well as sync loops and dodgy leaky apps , my personal setup is rom = paranoid android and kernel = hellsdoctor , using synapse app i switched the maximum clock speed to 1.2 Ghz , and changed the maximum core online to two, gpu is overclocked by default , rest is, location settings are turned off only turned on when required , brightness is set to 50 % , no dodgy apps on the phone , i can squeeze about 5 and half hours sometimes 6 its good enough for this battery size though and hope it works out for you :good:

Take your battery out, then re-enter recovery, clear cache and reboot. If it doesn't work, simply reflash via Odin to correct it.

In future, read a lot more, or don't mess around with your device. The amount of people that go on about "puking, Sick etc" is unreal. If you don't know what you are doing. don't do it. It's that simple.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] risingfate:
Hello all!

I've had my nexus 5 for about 8 months now and have had no problems with it! However just yesterday I turned my phone off and the power button got stuck down in the "On" position. So now the phone is completely inoperable. Everytime I plug it in to the charger it just repeatedly cycles on and off over and over. If i hold down the volume down button it goes to recovery and then immediately exits out and continues its pattern.

So I called google and got an RMA on the phone. However there are two things I'm worried about:

One I unlocked the bootloader as soon as i got the device in case I wanted to root later (Never really ended up rooting... been happy on the stock roms for awhile.) So now I'm worried google will charge me for the new phone because I unlocked the bootloader even though it's just a hardware issue. And second of all I'd really like to get some of my files back off of the phone... I have some rom saves and files that don't get backed up to the cloud and It would kind of suck to lose some of those.

Is there any chance to recover those files with the power button like this? Or to somehow disable to power button so that I can relock the bootloader and reset the tamper flag and snag a few files real quick?

Thanks... I'll try to respond quickly however i'm majorly crippled without any cell phone :(
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bitdomo:
It has proven that google dont care about unlocked bl and root :)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] risingfate:
That's actually amazing news! Definitely puts my mind to rest!

Any chance for some sort of data recovery without ruining my warranty? I mean i could probably pull the emmc somehow (where theres a will..) but that seems like a recipe for disaster.

Any good ideas / products to protect the read lens? I always end up scratching them so then the camera is useless.

Tried cutting a small circle from the plastic that comes with the phone but it was rubbish.
[ONE Accessories] inaudible101:
The lenses are usually simple to replace. I know a lot of them just you tape/glue to stick them on and can by pried off and replaced. I did it on an S4 I bought that was abused. You're only option for protection would be a screen protector cut up, but I can't imagine it holding up for more than a few days if you are able to f up the glass lens so easily.

Try not to post in Development sections again.

As for the problem, does your N7 have a custom recovery installed?

If yes, just boot into recovery, plug it into your PC and ADB sideload a ROM from your PC onto your N7. How you can do an ADB sideload depends on what custom recovery you have, and can be found on the web if you search.

If no, just install one ASAP and do the rest :D

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] mugzylol:
You can open a command window on the platform tools folder inside the android SDK (here) http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html by holding shift on it and right clicking. Click open new command window here. Go into fastboot mode on your tablet. There is a command to flash a .img which is fastboot flash (or fastboot boot if you do not want to flash) then after fastboot flash or boot you put the name of your recovery followed by .IMG (it has to be a .IMG file) the recovery needs to be in the platform tools folder for this to work. From your recovery you can flash an image but it needs to be on the internal SD(so this probably won't work)

This saved my Nexus 7 2013. It would not boot, I could not flash, format, copy anything, etc. The dreaded spinning Google symbol. It would give me errors when trying to flash. I tried TWRP and CWM, nothing would flash. I ran the Dead_Nexus7.bat file from the link below and my Nexus worked. It was like magic bringing it back from the dead. I am assuming the problem occurred when unlocking the device. It froze for a minute or two, until I started tapping on it.

why? twrp can be passcode protected as well. anyways, its easy to get around the recovery security features as well, if a person really wants to use the phone. you can always get a stolen phone that protected in the phone and recovery, then just flash the system img on it, and itll be a "new" phone after.

Yes same with any filesystem, nothing is ever deleted. It isn't easy though... But if you follow the link in my data recovery thread you can see its possible.

---------- Post added at 05:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:29 PM ----------

Just further to the above.

When you do a basic format or wipe, it just clears the filesystem entries but leaves the files. If you could mount the media in a pc, you could use standard data recovery methods.

Of course you can't mount mtp devices as a drive. You could take a userdata.img and uncompress it then mount it as a loop device on linux. There are windows alternatives too.

Only way to prevent is to overwrite the blocks with other data, even if it's empty data (eg you could dd an image. ).

Not sure if fastboot unlock does something similar.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PsychDrummer:
Little bit of a shameless plug. But I made a thread/video a couple of days ago about using NFC to unlock your phone. If you have root/xposed framework you can download the module, authorize an NFC tag and just leave the NFC tag somewhere safe. This way if you forget your password you can unlock your phone with the NFC tag.

Here's my thread: http://xdaforums.com/google-nexus-5/accessories/quick-unlocking-nfc-smartwatch-t2826592

Or....just write the password down and keep it somewhere safe. I guess that would be the most simple solution.

Not necessarily easily, but data is theoretically recoverable if there's enough of the storage medium left to stick under an electron microscope. The best you can hope for is to make recovery too financially prohibitive for the attacker to consider.

Guys i am new here and i need help in choosing a phone

i previously owned Sony Xperia SP (C5303)

Everything stock

i got the latest firmware version and i lost the damn phone

i was happy with the specs and all with the latest firmware, without lags

it was not rooted

i only played subway surfer, temple run 2, asphalt 8, stickman basketball

games kind a lame or might be a bit gay for you guys but i just only enjoy simple games

now i am planning to buy a new phone that would have atleast same performace

if would have better performance much appreciated

i have two phones in mind.

one would be Asus phone Zenfone 5

with specs

ASUS ZenFone 5 specs:

5-inch IPS display, 1280 x 720 @294ppi

Corning Gorilla Glass 3

Intel Atom Z2560 1.6GHz dual-core processor with HyperThreading Technology

PowerVR SGX 544 MP2

2MP front-facing camera

Non-removable 2110mAh battery

Dual-SIM

Android 4.3

148.2 x 72.8 x 10.3mm

144g

the other phone i cannot name since it might not be available on other countries

Specs

5-inch IPS Full HD (1080 × 1920) display, 441ppi

Bluetooth

GPS

USB OTG

Android 4.2.2 Jellybean

2,350mAh non-removable battery

Both phones almost has the same clock speed with my SP

advantage is the RAM

but i am not sure which GPU or Chipset is better

factors

*display

*speed

*multi-tasking

i can consume 3gb of space for music so storage will not be a factor

i dont take pictures so much and when i do i erase them immediately after i upload them

5gb total amount of games to be used in the storage
