[Moto X Q&A] rafaelrossignoli:
I've sent my phone warranty. I'm a previous contact they told me it's probably a hardware issue. The battery comsumption has increased a lot and the explanation is that phone is constantly searching for wifi/bluetooth. Is it possible even with hardware failure?

When I get my phone back tell you what was it's problem and the possible solution.
[Moto X Q&A] rafaelrossignoli:
Wifi and bluetooth had started working from nothing. Then, it stopped again. And it went this way several times since. Now, it's working properly, but it may stop anytime. Could it still be a hardware issue? I just have updated 4.4.4 yesterday. In one of the situations, I found the message "supplicant status: scanning".
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
Yes. based on the information you have provided, and my personal experience, I would suspect a hardware failure.
[Moto X Q&A] rafaelrossignoli:
Well, wifi and bluetooth aren't working anymore since my last post. There's a big battery drain - something like 60% of battery life in 3 hours with phone - supposedly - in sleep mode, even when it is in airplane mode. It seems the system tries to find wifi and bluetooth. When I see my battery status, Android OS and Android System processes are draining more battery life than screen itself. Could it be a hardware failure even if wifi and bluetooth get back working sometimes?

I think I'll buy a lower cost android phone if I decide sending my Moto X warranty. It's complicated staying without a smartphone during 20~30 days.

I appreciate you all for the help and considerations.

Update: sending my Moto x warranty. Tell you what was wrong when I get it back
[Moto X Q&A] mutukrp:
crappy wifi

Have you managed to get an update? I think I am having the same exact problems.

Not a developer device so can't unlock the bootloader

Not rooted. \persist\ is empty if that would make any difference at all.

Surprisingly once when I restarted the phone in bptools menu options on the boot menu, the phone came up fine and I was able to turn on my wifi and bluetooth. After about 10 minutes, the phone restarted on it's own and ever since they won't turn on.

Did a full wipe, FDR and also wiped cache but still the same now. Booting using BPTools menu option doesn't help any more.

For the last couple weeks, my phone is just guzzling data on 4G. Having a wifi would help. Please don't suggest me to do a warranty repair That is what I might end up doing in about two weeks. The unlocked device was bought in India but I am now abroad.

Using XT1052 running Kitkat 4.4.4 - AsiaRetail.
[Moto X Q&A] rafaelrossignoli:
For first, thank you for reminding me about this thread. I bring bad news for you, unfortunately. It's 99% a hardware failure. In my case, it really was one. After 25 days, my phone was back from warranty with a new wifi/bluetooth hardware.

My phone was behaving the same way as yours. Sometimes the wifi was back working for a while, then my phone restarted and wifi was unavailable again. So, i recommend you send your phone warranty as soon as possible. Good luck!
[Moto X Q&A] mutukrp:
Well, I don't think I really have a choice here. I would be able to give my device for service only in about another 2 weeks so I have to live with 4G! I'll let you know how it goes. And thanks for the update...
[Moto X Q&A] are.petrakis:
wifi and bluetooth not turning On FIX

Hello everybody.i use a moto x (xt1052) 4.4.4 kitkat not rooted.

A week ago started having problems with wifi communication not turning on and a couple of days later bluetooth couldnt locate any connections

I fixed these problems by switching to ART Runtime from the developer settings.this will reboot your phone and starts upgrading your apps .after that wifi and bluetooth work fine .(for now..)

I am also wondering if anyone has any random reboots or its just my pocket..:)

Hope it helps for you too.

Cheers,Stelios

Updated: WiFi and Bluetooth stopped working again.leaning more on software issue than hardware.
[Moto X Q&A] mutukrp:
Nope, that didn't help me at all. I think at least my issue is hardware related. Giving the phone for warranty repair on Thursday, let's see what happens.
[Moto X Q&A] mutukrp:
Update

Been to the service center a week ago. Apparently the moment I explained my issue, they said it is an hardware issue and so the board needs a replacement. Got my phone back and it has been a week with no issues. Fingers crossed...
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EverLost123:
Hello, i'm looking for a way to view without timing/save snaps , i use an app that does that perfectly well but i want to do that inside the snapchat app because it got more new features like Snap DMs (the chats) and other minor features that any other snapsave app i use doesnt

Also i'm looking for a way to upload videos and photos from my gallery...

I can do all that, but on separated apps

I use SaveMySnap for uploading photos from gallery

I use normal Snapchat app for features the other apps dont have

I use Snapsave for Snapchat most of the time because it just what i need everyday (viewing without timer and saving)...

Does an app or Xposed module that can do all of that exists? it's time consuming and terrible using 3 apps for similar tasks....

[LG Optimus L90] aSuperSaiyanG0D:
Quick Note, I'm not taking credit for these guides, I'm basically putting them in one thread :good:

Now this is of course assuming you're already rooted with TowelRoot, have LG Device Drivers installed and have adb installed, (I recommend [MENTION=4501943]shinobisoft[/MENTION]'s adb/fastboot zip package if you dont want to install the whole sdk) Link to it---> http://d-h.st/WqR

Now to use it just extract it to your desktop and in the folder Hold Shift + Right click and open a command prompt, and there you go a mini adb package ;)

Alrighty so lets get started!

Entering Fastboot Thanks to [MENTION=5412690]LaDY Vengeance[/MENTION];)

The LG L90 does have fastboot, but it's hiding "behind" LG Download mode.

Once again, this assumes you've already rooted manually or with Towelroot and know what adb/fastboot is.

First, backup your LG Download mode (laf) with this code, so you can use LG Flash if necessary.

(Backup will be saved as laf.img on your internal SD Card)

adb shell

su

dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/laf of=/sdcard/laf.img.

Now run the following code to zero out laf:

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/laf

adb reboot

For whatever reason, you won't be able to access fastboot via "reboot to bootloader" like most phones, so you've got to do a key combo:

Power Off

Unplug USB

Hold Volume Up

Plug in USB

There you go, access to fastboot, :D

Now for the actual bootloader unlocking! Found out by [MENTION=2775678]androidguy1991[/MENTION]

While you're in fastboot, type/copy past this command,

fastboot oem unlock

then after that type/copy paste this command to make sure you are unlocked,

fastboot oem device-info

and you should now see this text after,

... INFO Device tampered: false

INFO Device unlocked: true

INFO Charger screen enabled: false

OKAY

CONGRATS YOU HAVE NOW SUCCESSFULLY UNLOCKED YOUR T-MOBILE L90 BOOTLOADER! :victory::victory:

And again, I'm not taking credit for the guides, just wanted to put them all in one thread ;)

[LG Optimus L90] aSuperSaiyanG0D:
Aha no problem, thank you for figuring out how to get fastboot ?
[LG Optimus L90] i.snehal.kiran:
will this work for l90 d410
[LG Optimus L90] shinobisoft:
As far as I know, no. Your devices aboot partition or abootb partition has to be replaced with a hack written by the guys over at the Russian forum 4PDA. Since I have the D415, I'm not sure of the exact steps required. No one with any of the other L90 variants has written a guide on how to unlock the bootloader.

I can put a guide or script together, or both, but I at the very least, need a link for the aboot/abootb patch.

@aSuperSaiyanG0D

You may also want to add to the OP that LG's device drivers should be installed prior to doing this also ;) Just a thought :)

Currently in the process of adding the ability to flash the aboot patch to my [URL="http://xdaforums.com/lg-l90/general/script-l90-partition-backup-t2832304"][SCRIPT] L90 Partition Backup[/URL], among a couple other additions. This option will NOT be visible for LG-D415 device owners. The user will be responsible for downloading the aboot patch to the root of their external or internal sd cards. Script will only look in the root folder of both sd cards for aboot.img or aboot.bin.

I will post here as soon as I'm finished and the new script is uploaded. I will need some testers ( not D415 owners ) to ensure my script works correctly since I have the D415 and the aboot patch isn't needed for it.

Would this works on L90 D410?

i mean unlocking boatloader,

As i am alread rooted using towel root what next?
[LG Optimus L90] LaDY Vengeance:
Hmmm...well if you can find where download mode is stored, it can probably be zeroed out like laf.
[LG Optimus L90] shinobisoft:
No. This will only enable fastboot on your device. Your aboot or abootb partition needs to be patched. Someone posted links to all the available patches for the D405 and D410 within the last few pages of this thread.

I should note that I'm working on a script to automate the process of patching the aboot/abootb partitions on the D405 and D410 models. If I can finish setting up this computer within reasonible time, I'll try to finish the script and upload it. It will be merged with the [SCRIPT] L90 Partition Backup script that I've already written and posted.

If you decompile and recompile and apk with no changes and it doesn't recompile chances are you are using the wrong framework to decompile the apk

you can try this framework (it is pacman htc cm10 framework) http://d-h.st/zAg

load it using the apktool command apktool if framework-res.apk

if that doesn't work then apktool is installed incorrectly or you are using the wrong version

[General Questions and Answers] Jachin99!@:
Which of these would use more system resources and reduce the most battery life.

1. having peripheral devices connected to both bluetooh and wifi, such as an OBDLink Scantool connected to bluetooth while pulling data from a hotspot, or

2. buying the upcoming wifi obdlink scantool, and running all peripherals from wifi?

I know every situation is unique, but generally speaking, what do you all think
[General Questions and Answers] Crichton333:
I would imagine that bluetooth would suck on more battery than only wifi even with higher load.
[General Questions and Answers] Dev.Hiro:
IDEA'S

Comparing these both :

WiFi :

WiFiTethering via WiFi is one of the easiest to set up, and is arguably compatible with the most types of devices. Simply put, if your laptop (or other device) includes WiFi support, you should be able to tether via WiFi just as quickly and as easily as you would to any other hotspot.

Major advantages using this technique are that it’s quick, easy, and compatible with almost everything. You’re also not limited to connecting just one device like you are with the USB method, though some OEMs cap connections to five or so.

WiFi, depending on what security configuration you use, could be anywhere from not secure at all, to “fairly” secure. Also, since you’re not required to plug in to a USB port, your battery is going to drain while you’re thusly tethered. Bringing along a wall charger or a portable battery pack would be advisable.

Bluetooth :

No, it’s not just for headsets and handsfree kits! Bluetooth is an excellent method for tethering. Similar to Wifi, you can connect multiple devices to your smartphone wirelessly. Just like with WiFi, since no cable is required, power consumption is something to keep in mind.

Since Bluetooth is specifically designed for mobile use, in most cases it’s a bit nicer on your battery and consumes less power to do the same job as WiFi tethering does. Also like WiFi, Bluetooth is “fairly” secure.

Unlike WiFi, tethering via Bluetooth isn’t all that common. Sure, people do it, but it’s a little more involved to set up than WiFi, and a little more involved every time you want to use Bluetooth tethering. If power consumption is a concern, Bluetooth is probably the way to go, if you’re willing to configure it.

SO like that .... Comparing both ...Bluetooth does not Drain the battery .... Rather than Wi-Fi Drains battery

This is my opinion :highfive:
