[Galaxy Note 4 General] tryfound:
Turn off Google Now if you don't use it

Turn off Location/GPS or make sure it runs only in power saving mode

Turn off location history in Google settings

Use auto-brightness

Disable Pen detection in the S Pen settings

Disable S voice responding to double-tap of the home button (in S Voice settings)

Don't use the Google search widget which listens for the "OK Google" command

TeslaUnread for Nova Launcher prime drains some battery too, don't use this unless you really like it

Use power saving mode when going out for a big day rather than relying on it as the battery is almost drained

Disable any apps you don't care about i.e. carrier bloat, Google apps like Play Movies, Books, Newstand and Samsung apps like the TV/remote apps, video player if you're using an alternative, cloud syncing processes and print/spool ones as well. This may not make a big difference but it's nice to get them out of sight anyway.

And most importantly, as mentioned previously, don't kill your apps. The only time I kill an app is for big 3D games as I like them to go away rather than sitting in RAM. I also have a little routine, when I do a reboot and full charge, I run all of my common apps like Hangouts, Messages, Phone, Chrome and my weather app so that they are sitting in RAM already while my phone's at 100% rather than draining my battery during my commute to work in the morning. I don't really have any particular reason to do this as my batter never gets anywhere near 0% by the end of the day, I'm just OCD with seeing it drain too much before I even get to work.

I don't think most of the suggestions above are too extreme. Unlike uninstalling commons apps such as Facebook/FB Messenger, or disabling your data/wifi/bluetooth or even turning sync off. To me this is taking away from the purpose of a smartphone, but each to their own.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] The Divide:
Everything this guy said! Really good advice. If you are still having problems after all that, return the phone as it has a fault.

I have my phone setup similar and I'm blown away by how good my battery life is. I probably could go past 24 hours with moderate usage untill charge is required.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] easycure1974:
It is for sure fun buying a smart phone and have to disable half of the stuff for be able to use it :) I found the battery on my non rooted Note 4 to be really bad. My iPhone 6 plus runs circle around it. Seems that I must root it so I can use greenify
[Galaxy Note 4 General] AlwaysQuestion:
In my case, first day of using,

I don't know if it's a good result for the battery life. My Model is a SM-N910F (snapdragon)

How improve it ? Particulary with the huge use of Google Services.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] The Divide:
Agreed however all those apps don't really interest me and it's not really necessary to disable all those apps, just preferable if you want the most out of the battery. Arguably, most of those apps are bloatware anyways so disabling them doesn't downgrade to the phone into a Nokia 8210 lol. Not an owner of the iPhone 6 so can't really compare the two but it's a bit like comparing apples to oranges.

I'll checkout greenify thanks
[Galaxy Note 4 General] isheepfoundthelight:
Yeah, I'm a relatively heavy user and notice that battery life isn't any better than my iPhone but....I can plug it in at work, in the car or at home so hasn't really been an issue yet.

OK cool.... it's not too bad of an app to invert compared to all the other apps tho that 1 screen that pops up when deleting a message really gave me a hard time finding but finally found and was gonna post an update but I guess since there's already am updated app there's no sense now. But whenever your done inverting it send it over to me if you don't mind and I'll put some work into it as well.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4901200:
Bad week this is. First my old Galaxy S3's USB port fails when I give it to my dad (no data, otherwise charges), now my brother's 2 year old Nexus 4 dies.

I did all the troubleshooting and found the fixes involving the battery contacts and removal, the emergency reset procedures using the hardware keys, and the battery itself. No fix.

Battery is good, tests 3.75V, and won't charge anymore after leaving on different chargers. Disassembled whole phone and cleaned and checked all parts

Phone has been overheating for a while now as I was told, my brother is very lazy and never did anything about it, he told me his back screen even cracked from intense heat(Hard to Believe)

Now that it's dead, I noticed that the battery was cold, but the phone was well hot when on charger. After testing I found the Power Management chip to be heating up way to much and only 1.8V

going to battery at charge pins. Part is by Qualcomm, PM8921 and is used on other phones like my Galaxy S3. Seems this is the defective component causing all this. Look at left chip in picture.

Problem is desoldering and soldering is a job Santa's little helpers or a bot. This is damn near impossible to do by a human, especially by me. Found chips on ebay and alibaba which range from

$2 ea. bulk to about $8 individually. Wonder what now... anyone else think it may be something else? Throw away? Find professional to solder in?
[Pebble] whmcal:
After one month, the Pebble Steel charging cable head is broken. One of the two pins has snapped off.

Has anyone else experienced the fragility of this thing? If not, please be mindful of this vulnerability and store the cable away carefully to protect its pins.
[Pebble] ribcookie:
Hi, I experienced this issue, but I found a work around to fix it. I basically transplanted a pin from another charger I had, cut i down and just jammed it i the missing pin slot and it works.

I can send you pictures if you want.

When i resturned to stock. I only flash the stock recovery at rom. And i dont the radio. What radio does? Do i still need to flash it?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] GruziiC:
Little explanations needed !!!

Hi guys,just joined this HUGE community where you can find almost everything you need for your satisfaction:good: !

But since i`m noobie would appreciate some assistance in explaining how to unlock my M8,and install Android Revolution HD ROM !!!

I spent like 5 hours yesterday reading all kind`a info about how,where,why etc ... and the more i read,the more confused i got :eek:

Things i got to find out about my M8 = *software status:official* *Locked* HBoot-3.19.0.0000 Radio-1.22.30306251.27G CidNum- HTC__Y13 Version Main - 3.33.401.6

So the things i`m clearly too dumb to understand is STEPS from A-Z ,to get Android Revolution HD over Original(full with crap )ROM !?!

Would appreciate if some smart developer could explain step by step what should i do first,and what last... should i get S-off first,or should i unlock it first,or make it bootable ...as i told, i read so many info ,and got rally confused about all that process :silly:

Sorry for my bad english :o ,and tnx in advance for all who cared to shine some knowledge in my darkness :angel:
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
This forum section is specifically for the AT&T version of the M8, which your phone is not.

You want to post here: http://xdaforums.com/htc-one-m8/help

But all you need to do to install ARHD on your phone is unlock the bootloader via HTCDev.com, install custom recovery and flash the ROM.

---------- Post added at 10:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:23 AM ----------

Its not clear what you are trying to do, or what your current configuration is. The radio is the software that makes your phone work on the cell network.

If you did not specifically flash the radio (s-off required) its still on some stock radio. Although it might not correspond to the software (main version or OS) version you are on, since its also not clear what software you are on.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] GruziiC:
Ok really stupid question...what does AT&T mean ...this forum is FULL with different abbreviations ,i got no clue what does half of them mean ... there should be made a topic for noobs like me with only explanation of abbreviations:fingers-crossed:
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
AT&T is a carrier in the US. If you didn't know what it meant, then you shouldn't have posted here.

If you don't know an abbreviation, than look it up. There are a variety of threads that already explain what you are asking about, or just Google for it. Here is one: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=52484527

It doesn't tell you what AT&T is, but it explains a great many other common acronyms and terms.

[AT&T HTC One (M8)] nogaros4v8:
where would i find the firmware for 4.4.4.? I tried downloading the android revolution custom rom 22.1 but i couldnt get any wifi after flashing.

didnt realize i had to update firmware(however when i received phone i was on 4.4.2 and i tried doing software update and was told up to date)

i was told go back to stock and take stock update but i never received one in the first place.

is there a way that i can flash 4.4.4. firmware now that im bootloader unlocked/rooted and s-off?

would i flash zip firmware then reflash android 22.1 or the other way around?

sorry for the noob questions but after searching for awhile i can say im honestly stuck without having to go back to 100 percent stock and hope i get an ota update
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Wonders_Never_Cease:
there is no att 4.4.4,if on an ATT variant,change your cid to BS_US001 and flash the 3.28.1540.5 ruu if you really want 4.4.4
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
This is discussed in a great many places. Euro firmware and instructions here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2696282

Assume you are on AT&T, since this forum section is specific to the AT&T version. Note that Euro ROMs may create some network issues on AT&T (most prominent of which is LTE issues with Google services). The best combo for AT&T is WNC's ROM and the matching firmware.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] nogaros4v8:
i guess thats where the confusion lies. Its not that i want 4.4.4. i thought i needed 4.4.4. to run the custom rom.

---------- Post added at 04:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:02 PM ----------

correct i followed those instructions and downloaded the latest firmware from that link and i still couldnt get wifi to work on the revolution 22.1 rom. i then followed the directions went s-off to try and find a firmware for me to run the rom and couldnt get anything to work.

Yes i am on att. currently 4.4.2 rooted with s-off running twrp as my customer recovery.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
What did you try to flash ("couldn't get anything to work" doesn't' tell us a thing)? And what was the result?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] nogaros4v8:
your right i should be more specific. i went under the firmware section for the revolution rom and downloaded the firmware (3.32.531.2.zip). Now learning that this is euro rom and not att specific rom i guess the firmware i installed had nothing to do with att. the result didnt change. it was as if i flashed the rom without the firmware again. everything worked fine just no wifi. Before doing any of that i did a backup with twrp with just stock settings. right now im rooted and s-off. Looking into the rom you suggested and reading before i do anything. Its quite confusing this go around for me not too sure why.

appreciate everyones help though ! :good:
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Wonders_Never_Cease:
Backup your files needed@ pics music etc,change cid and run the 3.28.1540.5 ruu,this is the same device(att variant) as us developer edition,will put you to latest compatable firmware and enable you to run any 4.4.4 builds out.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
Did you flash the firmware with fastboot, following the instructions from the first link I supplied?

I think you are doing something wrong, which is probably why WNC is suggesting the RUU (which is a executable, and pretty much self-running).
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] nogaros4v8:
just realized you wrote the rom that was suggested lol. I think im going to go that route instead. Not sure how to change a CID but i will def read up on it. i noticed your rom says it doesnt need to be changed however. thanks for the support

---------- Post added at 05:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:59 PM ----------

yes i flashed the firmware with fastboot. i read both those posts before attempting even watched a few vids to make sure i did everything correct. However i think i am just going to go with WNC rom. i honestly had no idea there were euro roms and att specific roms. I figured everything in the att section was att specific. live and learn
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
What is your current hboot and radio numbers (both are displayed in bootloader).

Also, you often have to flash the firmware zip twice in order for all the modules to install.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Wonders_Never_Cease:
Connect phone to computer with fastboot in power settings turned off, open a command prompt navigate to your adb/fastboot location and run adb reboot bootloader,once phone reboots it will connect to fastbootusb ,once this is established run this command fastboot oem writecid BS_US001then run fastboot reboot-bootloader,once this is done can run the ruu from fastboot connection.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] nogaros4v8:
hboot- 3.19.0.000

radio 1.22.21331147a1.296

yea i read that it will fail sometimes the first time and to just run the process again.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
The hboot and radio numbers indicate you are on the latest firmware. If you did in fact flash the firmware twice, I would be confidant the firmware is all properly installed. I would try either:

1) Flash the desired ROM again after wiping data, cache and Dalvik

2) RUU as WNC suggests

3) Try WNC's ROM with corresponding firmware
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] nogaros4v8:
Think i will go with option 3 just off the fact the support from you two has been excellent. downloaded ATT_ISIS_3_28_1540_5_M8_Firmware and ROM.zip and will follow instructions. any problems ill post in the Q&A for that rom. Thanks again gents :good:
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
My pleasure. And there is a button for that! ;)

And good choice, as WNC's ROM really is the best option on AT&T's network.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Wonders_Never_Cease:
As I havent seen any posts or issues posted I am assuming you got it up and running
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] nogaros4v8:
Correct. Zero issues. read everything over a few times and followed each step. didnt have one issue at all.

thanks again for all the help!
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
Probably easier to just relock the bootloader and RUU to 1.58 or 2.23.

RUU will wipe the phone, so backup any personal data before RUU.

HTC m8 return to working state: Please Help or at least educate me

Hi, I am trying desperately to get my phone working again. I was following and guide and thought I was doing the correct thing, but now my phone will not system boot and I don't know how to recover its no ones fault, but mine. I am hoping since you'll were experts in this area I am hoping that someone might be able to help me. I am willing to donate or pay for help... If its not possible to fix, I would like to understand why and perhaps how I could of prevented the problem. I think part of the problem is that I am not s-off. I am starting to understand that is key if your going to flash roms and etc. The problem is that I flashed firmware that was signed some how, but doesn't seem be recoverable using RUU. I have spent a lot of time searching and reading and trying to understand better, but still have a lot to learn about all this. It has been a very confusing area to learn, and I am thinking that it might of been a very expensive wrong decision. I just didn't realize at the time that I wouldn't be able to recover very easily if at all and get my phone working in some form or fashion. Currently I can get to the boot loader and to twrp recovery, but that is it. I haven't been able to get past that, since flashing that firmware, which I am wishing that I hadn't.

It seems that no one has posted the recovery and radio images from the 4.4.4 update yet. Would it be helpful if I did this? I've extracted both of them, but I'm a bit nervous about trying to reflash them (to test) without an official working version to safely flash back to.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] enzeem2010:
I learned how to find the OTA after it was downloaded to my phone (accept OTA delay install for a half hour, reboot, and it's visible on internal SD in a directory called fumo) .. then I copied it to my PC..

so... if I use 7zip to view firmware.zip, recovery.img is what would need to be extracted for stock recovery... long story short, with this extracted file, I could flash TWRP, reroot, and when lollipop becomes available on AT&T I could flash the stock recovery.img and take OTA? It really can't be that easy...

...eta: and as a matter of fact, it was that easy.
