[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Graffiti Exploit:
First of all, I just really want some enlightenment on this. I have noticed that the settings on your phone when charging affects your battery life. Quite big.

Ok here are some of my testing settings:

[1] Charging with Power Saving Mode On and with just GSM Network(Mobile Data Off)

[2] Charging with LTE Network(Mobile Data off)

[3] Mix of both

Observations:

[1] Battery drains quickly. I get an average of 20minutes per 5% battery. This is browsing with wifi on or LTE on. Apps are basically internet apps and a few things. (Facebook, Chrome, Instagram, XDA App, etc).

[2] Bettery is awesome. I get 30 minutes even more per 5%. This is also with browsing through wifi or LTE on. I experienced an full hour with LTE on(2signal bars). With just 10% gone. An hour!! Apps same as above and then some.

[3] This is a bit tricky. As I am kinda obssesive compulsive. I'm that type of person who charges his phone again once it reaches 99%. So basically if I see an available plug, I will plug it in. Lol. Anyway, basically I charged the phone while doing stuff. Same as above basically with a pop-up video on. Music. LTE on all the time. Here is when battery is unstable. Don't know if it was draining or not so I can't estimate. Made a lot of restarts. Like 6 times. Most of the time to clear cache partition because I thought something was wrong. But I made drained it to 0 and I got around 5 hours of scren time. Most of which was Asphalt on for 1.25 hours! It made the phone staye awake(2.3 hours) as I fell asleep trying to drain the phone.

Conclusion:

I have done this several times and the results are really consistent. Well, 3rd one is tricky. So I think that if you max out settings on phone without it draining your battery (Meaning settings for maximum drain percentage if phone is used) you can get an amazing battery life). If you lower it then you get less battery life. I don't know if this works for everyone but it sure does work for me. If anyone could explain this to me that would be great. I'm a techie just not that technical with deep hardware/software things so don't be afraid to use nerdy words.

Thank you for listening. Hope someone can enlightenment me with this. It can also help the other people here. So winwin. :D

I'll attach a few pics below. Don't have one for the [1] but please do take my word on it. This are all on NF4.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] werpzy:
hello there

before my new s3, I owned an i9000, it had a slow cpu but the microphone recorder was great. nice and clear, no complaints.

the s3 on the other hand sounds like a cheap dictaphone with codec artefacts, hiss and dynamic compression, not good.

has anyone found a fix to bypass all this processing so we can record directly into a HQ wav recorder untouched? ? if not, I need to sell my new S3 and buy an i9000 again, as i need it for sound recording interviews, things like that, with a password protect, the i9000 was perfect for this, but very slow cpu. I hear the s4 and s2 are not great either for sound recording compared to the s1.

just found that the s3 has a Wolfson WM1811 the s1 has a Wolfson WM8994E. maybe this is the issue for the input quality?

thanks for help : )

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andre32065:
Hello guys,

Bought a htc one m8 from a "friend". It came already with Team Win Recovery Project, so it means that someone installed it.

"Inside" the phone, the icons on the app screen are smaller than in the common HTC's (grid is 4x5), which i believe it is a failed custom ROM that someone installed (am i right??)

When i press POWER+VOLUME it enters in that "crazy" menu and, on top, it says S-ON.

How can i wipe all of this (including this TWRP) and restore all default factory settings, so my HTC app menu looks like everybody else's?

Although, i want it to stay unlocked as it is.

I do not intend to root it for now, or install any custom rom (for now).

Sorry about my English,

Thanks in advance,

Cheers

André

I think you should be able to follow this to go back to stock: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2735235

Although as you are still S-On, you won't be able to remove the tampered banner or re-lock your bootloader though.

Everything else will be stock though.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andre32065:
Thanks for your answer!!

But is is possible that the small icons in app screen are smaller beacuse a incompatible rom was installed?

thanks
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Its probably just a custom ROM that has the option for smaller icons and/or smaller icon grid in the app drawer.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andre32065:
It is the Google Edition Custom ROM, i guess...

Is there a way to change that so app screen or screens are as in original version?

Thanks a lot for your answers

[LG Optimus G (International)] JaymzBond:
After i unlocked and installed MoKee everything was fine until my phone got out of juice while listening to radio. Now the phone is just unresponsive and when I connect it to the wall charger it just blinks(kinda , it looks like a blink on top of a static red light. hard to tell) red light and does nothing. From time to time it stops for 1-2 secs and starts blinking again.

If I try to open / reset / fastboot the phone stops blinking for half a second and goes back to blinking. I found some topics about this problem in xda and other forums but they were all resolved by disconnecting the battery and letting it cool for sometime.

Well the problem with that is; I dont want to void my warranty by opening up the phone and I dont want the service to find out that I m fully rooted and unlocked (which means another excuse to void the warranty). Is there anyone who solved this problem without opening up the phone? or am I doomed for good.

EDIT: topic heading supposed to be red blinking led but my mind is getting bricked without my phone too

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yossarianph:
Hi,

I've tried searching from this forum and online, but I can't find any direct instructions in downgrading a Nexus 7 (2012) from the latest, 4.4.4 to Jellybean (4.1.2) on a Mac OSX (Mountain Lion)?

I hope I can get some help to get it done. I'm using a Mac OSX too. The reason is because I'm having a very very slow charging time (like 9-10 hours from about 10% to full), and I believe it happened right after upgrading to Kitkat. I've read perhaps all the other threads about the slow battery charging (and that the dock works as a solution), but I'm in a country where the dock isn't even available. :(

It might be hardware, but it was just too coincident the the problem happened right after upgrading to Kitkat, so I'd like to try my luck first by downgrading. I don't have any issues with the lags, or slow opening of apps, or battery drain. The only issue I have is the very slow charging rate.

I've tried the other tricks like pulling the usb plug back and forth, but the charging remans slow (I'm measuring via Battery Monitor Widget).

Is it possible to downgrade to back to Jellybean on a Mac OSX (Mountain Lion)? Unfortunately, I don't have access to a Windows.

Thanks!

[Moto X Q&A] T-Keith:
I have a Verizon moto x unlocked currently running 4.4.2 with twrp installed. If I understand correctly I can't take the OTA because I don't have a stock recovery.

Has anyone uploaded a flashable update yet?
[Moto X Q&A] nhizzat:
A quick look around the forums would've answered your question.
[Moto X Q&A] T-Keith:
No it didn't but thanks for the help.
[Moto X Q&A] nhizzat:
If you click yourself on over to the Moto X General forum, you'll see this thread titled "[FXZ] Moto X 4.4.4 212.55.26 (XT1060)" which has 10k+ views,163 posts, and is at the very top of the first page right below the stickies. The last reply in that thread was posted tonight at 9:29pm. Between 9pm and the time you posted this thread, there were 8 replies posted so the thread has been at the very top of the General forum.

You've been a member here for nearly 4 years and have made nearly 1k posts in that time, there are no excuses. Could I have been more helpful by answering your question? Of course. However, when the answer to your question can be found that easily, why should I bother? It's obvious you didn't bother to look, because there's no way you could've seen "[FXZ] Moto X 4.4.4 212.55.26 (XT1060)" and not click on it.

Asks about updating a Verizon Moto X to 4.4.4, skips the thread which has all of the key words in the title.
[Moto X Q&A] dhoppy:
And then you waste all that time typing that out, instead of just linking him to what he needs to find? I hate responses like yours. Instead of "did you do a search" why not just not reply at all? Lame.

This is the post with all the info: http://xdaforums.com/moto-x/general/fxz-moto-x-4-4-4-212-55-26-t2827307

I am in the same boat as OP. I first flashed to stock 4.4.2, but I don't think you need to with the FXZ from that thread.
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
You are correct. With this FXZ, one can flash from *any* version straight to 4.4.4, unlike OTA's which are "incremental" in nature.

No need to flash stock recovery, either. :good:
[Moto X Q&A] T-Keith:
Thanks for the actual response! I did see that thread, but I'm not familiar with fxz, I looked it up and it appeared to be for a Windows only toolkit. Am I mistaken? Can this be flashed in twrp?

I have been on xda quite a while and it's quite common for real information to be lost in posts because people jam them up with useless bickering and shaming instead of real information. The moto x posts seem to be lost in the thousands of Combinations of downgrades upgrades and write protection combos that people have. I'm used to phones with unlocked bootloaders, where someone usually posts a stock rom that you can flash. I haven't found that here.
[Moto X Q&A] dhoppy:
RSD Flasher is a java program, should run anywhere, but I don't know about RSD Lite.

I extracted the FXZ file, and then flashed it manually because RSD Lite won't run on USB 3.0, but fastboot will. I don't know if it is supposed to work that way, but seems to be working for me. I'm in the process of rooting right now.
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
I can help you with this....

First, [MENTION=2935197]T-Keith[/MENTION] , I came across your post after [MENTION=315604]dhoppy[/MENTION] had just answered your question, pointing you to the fxz thread.

Second, T-Keith, you can absolutely flash this in Linux OR Mac (let me know which you are running, and I'll help with both the tools and commands necessary).

It will take only a couple minutes to complete and your data will be left intact.
[Moto X Q&A] T-Keith:
Linux
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
I'm sorry, I'm jumping in late but...

IF you are on 4.4.2, and pretty close to stock (i.e. Xposed disabled, system files not modified, etc. so that the manifest checks inside the OTA will not fail) then you can just use mfastboot to flash stock recovery and take the OTA.

If the OTA hasn't been pushed to your device yet, but it has leaked (like the 4.4.4. OTA for Verizon) and you want install it, see -> http://mark.cdmaforums.com/MotoX-SideloadOTA.htm

This process will NOT impact your data or apps.

If you are TOO far from stock... then just return to stock by flashing the full SBF/FXZ for your phone. If the 4.4.4 FXZ/SBF has leaked for your phone, then just flash it using RSDLite, mFastboot(manual steps), or other tool. This will likely wipe your data, apps and settings and put you back to stock.
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
The new Leaked FXZ is a "KEEP DATA" FXZ - Moto Made it this way (thanks Moto!!). Unless someone explicitly runs "fastboot erase userdata" or uses a different tool to erase userdata, it's just as good (BETTER) than taking the OTA. :good:

OK, have you managed to do it already? My response was from last night, so if you have already managed to flash it, I don't want to go finding the tools and spend a few minutes writing up a guide for you. Confirm (quickly) if you still need it, and I'll write it right up for you, if so. :)
[Moto X Q&A] T-Keith:
Yeah I have xposed installed, and twrp. So that might be a good option. Is there anyway to test that? It looks like rsdlite and mfastboot are Windows tools, can I just use adb fastboot?
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
...He's offline. Do you want me to help you? I HAVE all the linux tools, and know how to do this. KidJoe only uses Windows...

EDIT: [MENTION=2935197]T-Keith[/MENTION] : Well....here's the info anyways. Use it if you want..

1. Download the FULL FXZ from here: http://xdaforums.com/moto-x/general/fxz-moto-x-4-4-4-212-55-26-t2827307

2. Extract it

3. Download the attachment that I was so kind as to attach here for you (you MUST use this variant of fastboot - for Linux) Extract THIS fastboot to same folder as the FXZ files (possibly need to change permissions +x)

4. Boot phone into bootloader mode (AP Fastboot Mode): Unplug phone, power off. Hold Down VOL DOWN + POWER

5. Execute the following commands IN ORDER:

fastboot flash partition gpt.bin

fastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img

fastboot flash logo logo.bin

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin

fastboot erase modemst1

fastboot erase modemst2

fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn

fastboot erase cache

fastboot erase customize

DONE! And your data should still be intact....if you would PREFER to wipe your data, add the following command BEFORE "fastboot reboot"

fastboot erase userdata
