I activated art on my S5 and it restarted. When it was restarting it was saying optimizing apps. After that the phone turned off and now it doesnt even turn on. If i press the power button the phone will vibrate but doesn't turn on. I even tried a hard reset by holding the power button, up volume, and home button but nothing is working. Any body have any suggestions on how i can get it working again, at this point i dont even care about the data and apps on my phone I just want it working. Any help is appreciated.

Hi guys,

Im in New Zealand and parallel imported my D855 phone, once i got it out the box and connected to wifi i got an update to.....

V10i-TWN-XX

Is this a Taiwan version?

I used my IMEI number to download a copy of the firmware for backup purposes it was KDZ format, is there a version of this as a TOT?

Id like as many options as possible to "restore" the phone incase i damage it somehow via rooting/xposed (which i am yet to do)

this is the longest ive taken to root an android phone, i just dont feel confident with the restore process, the threads are full of people have problems with many thing.

please help.

after inserting a new battery, I cannot charge to more than 86%.

even when it shows 100% with the charger, after disconnecting the charger, it drops to 86%. I thought it was a bad battery, I bought another, but the situation is the same.

It behaves the same with another S3mini with the same CM11 (20140829) from Maclaw as mine...

apart that, battery life is ok.

I tried to discharge until the phone switched off, then charge several hours with phone off, turned on, but again it shows 86%.

When I insert my old battery back, everything is correrct.

Some of them can ba inaccurate, because I've just rebooted my phone, but u see that my phone was on 12 hours (with about 7, 8 hours at night doing nothing and switching to 2G only) I had 2h and 35m of screen, and I didn't play any games, just browsing internet, and I have 46 percent left...

What could causing this poor battery life? It can be some app, that is not showing in battery monitor as a draining one? Or what could be the issue?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gebnar:
You need to root your device and install Better Battery Stats, Xposed Framework, and Wakelock Terminator. Then use bbs to determine which Wakelocks you need to terminate to save battery.

Using this method got my battery drain down to about 1% per 6h of screen off time.

I had to terminate 2 wakelocks to fix my battery life: NlpCollectorWakeLock in Google Play Services, and WifiOffDelayIfNotUsed in Android System.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] monocay:
Nyorbee, I might be wrong, because I own g3 only for a few days, but your battery life looks to be pretty normal to me.

The phone drains really slowly in standby, but 4 hours screen on time during a regular day looks to be quite ok.

Web browsing is particularly taxing on the battery, because of the high res display.

Do not expect the same battery as on G2, from my experience it is lower at least by 1/3 (I upgraded from G2 too).
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nyorbee:
What do you think about that? Everything looks normal to me, but I could be wrong.

I can also test this again with full battery from 0 to 100

Sent from my Stacjonarny using Poczta Polska.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gebnar:
Yeah, we will definitely need more than 10 minutes of data. You don't need to go from 100 to 0 though. Just get some data from a few hours of screen off time and show me both the kernel wakelock and partial wakelock info.

Edit: The screen off time doesn't have to be all at once. However, the easiest way I found to pinpoint my battery drain was to charge the phone fully just before bed, and unplug it overnight.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meyerweb:
My sensor usage also strikes me as very high. Is there anyway to figure out what sensors are keeping the phone awake so much of the time?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gebnar:
I need to see your partial wakelock info as well. Those sensor readings alone don't tell me much. One thing to keep in mind: as you reduce the usage of pointless activities, the usage percentiges for other activities like sensors will rise, but this doesn't mean they are consuming more battery.

I also need to know how much of that time the screen was on/off. If your battery drained 70% in 10 hours of screen off time, it wasn't just your sensors, i can assure you.

You should also consider whether your battery is defective. If you get a good amount of screen on time with a full charge, the battery is probably OK. But if you can drain a full charge in an hour or two of heavy use, you might need to replace your battery.

Good luck!
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vivasanti:
Also try Wakelock Detector / Greenify - an amazing battery combo
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meyerweb:
Thanks for the response. Here are the partial wakelocks, captured at the same time. Unfortunately, I didn't capture the "Others" page, but screen on time was about 3 hours. Wake time was considerably higher than screen on time. I've rebooted the phone, in case something weird was going on. I see what these numbers look like tomorrow. If they still seem odd, I'll repost with all the relevant data.

I've lost 4 percent of the battery doing nothing over maby 8 hours.

But the real problem is when screen is on, than I'm loosing 1 percent every one or two minutes. I'm out of juice in 10 to 12 hours with less than 4 houurs of screen. I'll show u my stats after full battery cycle. And I have two batteries, it's the same, so I guess this is not battery fault...
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gebnar:
If your big drain is coming from screen on time, I suggest using gsam battery monitor to determine what's eating the battery. It's easier to read, and I find the stats a bit more relevant for screen on drain.

4% loss over 8 hours of screen off time doesn't seem bad at all, honestly. Its probably improvable, but not necessarily worth the effort.

What are you doing during your screen on time, and what screen brightness? I can burn a full charge in about 3-4 hours of Netflix at full brightness and full volume, but I get considerably more time if I'm browsing the web at minimum brightness.

Edit: I'd you don't use it, i highly suggest disabling or uninstalling google search. It's a prime culprit for wasting battery. I'm not entirely sure, but this might break google now, if you use that. Of course, google now is also a big battery waster.

Is it safe to disabling the services of google? My phone has v10c rom and can at most 3h of screentime.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gebnar:
If you disable Google Play Services you won't be able to use the play store or some other google apps. However, you can use Wakelock Terminator to prevent it from draining your battery.

I have frequently read that some wireless networks can cause more drain than others. If this is what's draining your battery I'm afraid I don't know of any good solution. If you have a good data connection and/or unlimited data, you may get better battery life using that. Have you tried disabling mobile data entirely when you're in Wi-Fi range? I have very limited mobile data, so I keep it off unless I have a specific need for it. I do think this has improved my battery a bit.

Again, i suggest getting gsam battery monitor. It's free on the play store, and offers an easier display of what's eating your battery compared to BBS.

Edit: don't get discouraged if you have some trouble getting your battery life up to spec. It took me three weeks of googling and tweaking to get mine where I'm happy with it.
