Doesn't stamina mode already cover most of what Greenify does? Unless you have a misbehaving app, most background battery usage in my experience is from data / location usage, which stamina mode handles (just white list the apps you really care about immediate notifications for, like third part alarm apps or messaging).
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seamonkey420:
I'm at 6 hours usage and at a solid 84% this is with:

-Work Exchange email and push enabled (i get about 100-125 emails a day)

-Lifelog enabled for step tracking (always on)

-Wifi/BT/NFC enabled

-AT&T USA but only on HSPA+ (imo 8Mb/s is worth the battery life increases vs 20Mb/s LTE)\

-30 sec screen timeout

-Screen on when looking at phone options

-Tap to unlock (LOVE THIS OPTION!!)

-X-Reality off since i use my phone to take a ton of pics

I have not watched any vids today or listened to much music but do surf the web and read Play Newstand on breaks. This weekend I tried to max out my battery and went from Saturday fully charged at 9:30am to 5% on Sunday at around 10pm. This was not a light usage weekend either; i went to a friend gathering and did several 1080p videos, dozen of pics w/flash. I'm very impressed w/battery in that it last as long as my Z1 and then some w/a smaller battery (and of course smaller screen).

there's my observations.

Coming from a S3 that recently died while mountaineering, I'm fairly impressed by the Z3C's battery life.

I got manual sync on for everything google.

Stamina-mode on (with the staminaclock enabled)

Changed celluar for GSM only

Mobile data disabled

WiFi disabled on sleep

I use the bluetooth for headset calls while driving to work.

At work i use the phone for photos and quick notes.

I do some light web-browsing when I'm doing my thing.

I send a couple of texts, and makes a few calls during the day.

When i get home i use it as a remote for XBMC, and some quick web-browsing.

And the battery lasts for around two-three days as advertised.

[Zooper Widget General] jsjansen:
I would like to request the ability to apply a locality to a rectangle.

I want to design a widget that is a dual-time-zone analog clock. One hour hand would be for local time, and a second hour hand would be for a specified location. Because hour hands are implemented using rectangles and Advanced Parameters that specify sweep angle and rotation as a function of time, I need to be able to specify the locality of the rectangle separately from the widget so that the Advanced Parameters will use the correct time--that of the rectangle, not of the widget.

If this is not the correct forum for feature requests, please let me know where that is.

Thanks.

Jeff Jansen
[Zooper Widget General] Timbomb:
Might I suggest that you use the timezone in the sweep angle/ rotation calculation. If you use local time + timezone offset that should adjust the rectangle correctly. I did something like this to make a clock like xkcd:Now (google, I can't post outside links yet :( ). The outer edge is fixed and the colored timezones rotate. I tried to incorporate the #DZ# variable but I haven't got this quite working yet.

Okay, so I screwed up a bit.

I deleted the OS from my phone entirely - no traces of it what so ever, can't boot into recovery mode, etc.

I've got it in download mode - I've got no drivers for MSC806 or something like that, and odin doesn't pick it up (don't know how to use odin anyhow)

Can someone point me in the right direction or give me some information on how to fix an issue like this?

I'm with Buhohitr, except that I KNOW that your (OP) problem is Kitkat's write protection. I had this exact same problem after first installing KK. To fix it, use SDFix ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.sdfix), but you have to be rooted.

I am experiencing the same issue with firefox but also with other browsers like dolphin (with different error message) . but not only with browsers but also with es explorer . i applied all the fixes sd fix etc while rooted , i also tried unrooted . my internal sd is only affected by this not the external. I cant change anything in internal sd it is like locked. This is happening only in the official kitkat rom and the problem appeared all of a sudden.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] kutulu32:
Thanks for your suggestion. I finally fixed the issue first by installing supersu( already have towelroot) . After that i installed the following fixers : sd fix, sd fix tool and int sdcard write fix. The problem is solved with all browsers and es explorer. Maybe towelroot alone without supersu didnt left the fixers work before. I am not sure.

I also have the same Problem on my rooted Samsung XCover2. BUT this has Android 4.1.2 and most of the apps wich helped you didn't work on my older android version. What can I do???

It was bound to happen... I did something stupid today. I deleted the "Settings" item from \Windows\Start Menu\.

Can someone tell me the easiest way to re-create it?

I'm hoping not to restore from my most recent backup as I've made quite a few changes since then I'd rather not have to re-do. Thanks.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] VivaErBetis:
In my TyTN its only an empty folder called "Settings". But it's in ROM (can't be deleted) so I don't know how did you delete it?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] sickchilly:
I just clicked on it in File Explorer and hit delete! Don't know what I was thinking...

Anyway, I ended up doing a backup just now. Then I did a hard reset and copied the file to my Storage Card. Restored my most recent backup and copied the file from Storage to the proper place. Seem to be back in business.

I would think such a file would be in ROM too...

I have this M8 for awhile and out of nowhere, today it's just dead, can't turn on or do anything to it. I was talking on the phone then it just hang, so I turn off the screen and it went black after that. Tried to turn it back on, boot to bootloader, but nothing work, it's just black out. Any advise on this ? Thanks. Last I checked, the battery is on 40%.

PS. This phone has not been mod or anything like that, just got this phone for a few months so don't want to do anything to it yet. So basically, this phone still untouched with any mod.

If I order from the Motorola website, this will be the pure edition phone, correct?

Will the pure edition work on Verizon LTE or is it for GSM networks only?

I'm an AT&T user but trying to assist a family member in choosing a phone - he is on Verizon and will be coming from a fruit phone 4S.

I would like for him to get a phone that is developer friendly and the Moto X has got my attention.

Thanks for clearing this up for me.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knitler:
There is rumored to be an upcoming Firmware update that will KIND OF make the Pure edition work on Verizon.

Really no Verizon phone will be "developer friendly" as Verizon themselves are not Developer Friendly.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevinga:
Thank you. I think the rumor thing was adding to my confusion. Maybe a bit off topic here but does Verizon have ANY current production top of the line phones that have an unlockable bootloader?
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v3thabest:
Definitely not from Verizon. You may have to search for a few phone that Verizon carries but last I checked the nexus line did. But that was like 2 years ago almost
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kirdroid:
Lol no it will not work on Verizon... It will not work on Verizon with future firmware update. The pure edition doesn't have CDMA radios so calls will not work. The firmware update is to unlock additional lte bands so that it will help for roaming even you go out of USA.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knitler:
Not all of Verizon's bands are CDMA
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kirdroid:
While ordering on the MotoMaker you can choose pure edition or the useless ugly branded crap carrier versions. If you select pure edition it will work on gsm networks, in the USA it will work on att and T-Mobile.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] piccit:
All calls go over CDMA. As he said, calls won't work.

With VoLTE, calls can go over LTE (which you may be able to get, idk what bands Vzw uses), but VoLTE needs software from vzw which you certainly wouldn't have

[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Berzerker7:
Where are you getting this rumor from? The only bands that will be enabled from this update will be bands 2, 3, and 7. Verizon uses Bands 4 and 13 for LTE, only one of which is on the Pure edition. Calls are still sent over CDMA and that's not planning to be retired until 2016. So, no it will not work on Verizon, ever.

I purchased mine on the 7th, the promotion was from September 8th through the 22nd. I figured I would try and do it anyways; luckily for me I had filled out 2 of them. Upon letting them know my situation and only being a day out of the promotion period, I received an email stating "although you are out of the purchase period, customer service is our top priority."

Shortly after that, I received a response back saying unfortunately your application has been turned down for the reason of "not purchased within the promotion period." I thought to myself, yeah, customer service is our top priority my a$$. Good thing I did fill out two of the forms, because a couple days later I received an email stating it was approved. This was roughly 7 days ago. I still have yet to receive shipping information, but none the less the status is still "approved" ; free is free. If they still have the site up to access, I would recommend just trying to anyone who has not yet. It's worth a shot, if so, fill out a couple extras so different people will review them. :)
