This works on XDA-Live & Black (at least)

Here's the one I use and it works on most of them anyways. Remember to soft reset afterwards.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] laaban:
Whenever I flash a new ROM or do a hard reset I just change the following ONE registry setting.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Oem\Qwerty]

"Layout"=132116

Why not make a fix_my_qwerty_mapping.reg file and save this on your storage card, content like this (I have no idea how to make a .cab file, but this works fine for me):

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Oem\Qwerty\]

"Layout"=dword:20414

This is the Norwegian settings, but it doesn't matter for Finnish, Swedish and Danish users - it's all the same mapping. I got a TyTN/Herm 200 and for all I know this could be firmware dependent.

The number "132116" is decimal and found by:

20+countrycode, country code for Norway: 0414. That will be 20414. Converting this hex to dec gives 132116.

(When using the .reg file it writes in hex and therefore 20414, but you can manually enter the number directly into the register using hex if you like.)

Country codes:

http://www.microsoft.com/globaldev/reference/winxp/xp-lcid.mspx

Remember to power down/up after applying this registry change - not just a stylus soft reset.

[XDA Assist] :
Since I (involuntarily) had to upgrade to firmware 14.4.A.0.157, I noticed unwanted periodic (~every 15min) location pings.

After a long time of trying to determine the culprit, I'm pretty sure it is "Google Play Services 6.5.99 (1642632-036)". If I downgrade it to version 6.1.05, the periodic location pings disappear.

My location mode is "Device only" because I don't want Google to send anonymous location data in the background.

I set "Location reporting" and "Location history" to "Off".

BTW, these settings are rendered in a grey fonts suggesting they are disabled, but I can operate them. I'm guessing this is Google trying to discourage people to mess with these settings, but the grey font could also be an indication of an issue. When I use a very old "Google Play Services" version, the font is black. Can anyone confirm this is normal?

I don't have any wake-lock problems, I just don't want these completely pointless (GPS does not work indoors) and battery consuming (GPS takes a toll on battery) location pings.

I suspect new versions of "Google Play Service" do more location pinging because of the recent "Google Fit" integration, but that's just conjecture.

Can anyone confirm the location pings?

With the above settings (I guess the location mode is important, otherwise GPS won't be used), you should be seeing periodic ticks in the "GPS on" bar when looking at the "History details" battery usage chart by going to "Settings | Power management | Battery usage" and tapping on the top chart.

Any ideas of what I could be doing instead of repeatedly reverting to Google Play Services 6.1.05? The shame is that they automatically update to 6.5.99 from time to time. I don't get how the latter is possible without the user's consent, in particular Goog
[XDA Assist] Perseus:
If you are that conseious, why not turn off Location Service all together ?

I'd suggest confirming weather indeed Location Pings are happening or not. Install [APP][2.1+][21 Dec. - V2.0RC4] BetterBatteryStats Follow the instructions on that thread on how to install and pull an Idle Log. Take a look at the Text Log. If it has Entries such as "NLP Service" then there are pings. It will also tell you which application is requesting location.

You might also wish to review [GUIDE] Insanely Better Battery Life When Idle - Battery Life Thread

It might not be your device, but the thread is applicable nonetheless.
[XDA Assist] TomKay:
If I want to use an application like Maps, I'd like to be able to simply start it and use it without having to manually enable "Location Service" first (and then disable "Location Service" again, once I'm done).

This has been working fine before and I believe it is reasonable for "Location Service" to be enabled all the time but actual resources (like GPS) only be used when necessary.

I may should add that I'm not too worried about my location being known -- although I deny browsers and apps to know about my location per default because it is nobody's business where I am, I'm not overly fuzzed if something should leak -- but I'm against anything depleting my battery, in Google's case probably for their good, rather than mine.

Thanks a lot for this suggestion, but I understand doing the above would require a "rooted" phone. I'm using a stock ROM, non-rooted, bootloader locked and initially planned to just use the phone, instead of discovering a whole new world of spending one's time. :)

I can see that I will eventually become someone running a custom ROM (e.g., to get back AppOps), but for now I just want to enjoy the phone (retaining warranty being part of the motivation).

Thanks heaps!

I'll have a look now.

We all know that OnePlus One's 3100 mAh battery and ROM optimizations clearly has given the flagship killer the edge in battery life over its competitors.(puny yureka)

But there is always room for improvement.

[ONE General] abhi08638:
All of these I already know but it seems like a good guide for people who are new to android.

Some more important things to consider are hotplugging and under clocking.

Underclocking obviously saves battery by reducing the max CPU clock speed and is much more effective than undervolting.

Hotplugging takes up the most battery depending on the type of hotplugging used.

MPDecision is Qualcomm's method of hotplugging and is aggressive but does not respect the max freq when its under clocked. You need MSMLimiter for it to work properly.

Intelliplug has multiple variants in which some allow you to set the min and max number of cores and others which have predefined profiles. Its fast but lags with dt2w.

Alucard hotplug seems the most efficient because stock settings allow for smoothness and battery savings.

My favorite is MSM MPDecision because it allows you to set the number of cores online at any time while respecting other parameters. I find that if you set a max and min of 2 cores online at any time and use the slim CPU governor with gboost disabled, under clocked to 1.5ghz, you get amazing screen on time with zero lag. Approximately an hour every ten percent while being smooth as butter.

Hey buddy :) I'm glad to be here. But i still lack the technical know how in most parts. I thought i will be able to learn and get the facts from experienced users in here.

The guide is kinda meant for all the new users who wants more out of the battery without much tinkering.

Thanks mate. I seriously will look more into under-clocking my one.

Well i did overclock my M14x laptop a few years back. :p

Cheers.

I am a newbie in android world. I recently acquired a Intex Cloud FX and decided to play with it. I managed to initiate a ADB connection between phone and by PC (running Win7) and accidentally wiped the system partition by Fastboot commands ( I regret it) . Now the device starts and display only intex splash screen, I have tried every possible key combination to enter the recovery mode but the device boots up only to display the splash screen and nothing else. The Firefox OS that came with the device is now wiped and my phone has no OS and I would be very grateful if any person helps me to recover my device.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] LegolasTheElf:
My first guess is that if you had a USB -> miniUSB adapter, it would probably work, assuming there is a driver available to the system. What would be the benefit to that though? Just use a USB cable to grab stuff off the device if you really need something there.. OR, email it to yourself via. a webmail account...

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Aizen Shisuke:
So, I decided to update my custom ROM, called S3Rx to the latest firmware, since some apps don't work on 4.3 anymore.

The guide to updating the ROM called for upgrading the bootloader and modem. I just followed the directions.

At Step 1, the .zip for upgrading the bootloader to UCUFNE4 failed. A user with this issue was told to try a .zip to upgrade it to UCUEMJB first then try it. So I did this, but they both failed.

At this point, I said screw it and decided to try intalling the 4.4 ROM anyways. Maybe the problems will go away. The Aroma loader thing worked fine, no errors.

But then came to new cool, kinda annoying bootloader: the spinning balls of Google, I guess. Well, they were like that for 5-10 minutes and then loaded sort of.

I say sort of because my screen did a loop of sorts. First it would go to Touchwiz, no background, and take its time loading apps. Then it would shut off. 10 seconds later, repeat. No lockscreen. No 'Welcome' screen. Just Touchwiz > Screen off > TouchwizI'm not sure if its's actually on or not. This happens without my interaction. It just loads, unloads, loads, unloads repeatedly.

Did I go wrong somewhere? If so, can anyone provide help?

P.S. I suppose I should mention that S3Rx's Aroma loader comes with a few kernels for you to choose from. Maybe that had something to do with it?

EDIT

I waited about 20 minutes and the loop actually changed to a colorful lockscreen. I try to touch and unlock it but then it just restarts the loop. No animation.

EDIT 2

I originally wanted to go to stock S3 firmware so I could get OTA updates and not worry about any of this garbage. But then I realized that I still needed root. The easiest method was to keep my current root and just upgrade the custom ROM. Even before I started all this, the Stock Restore.zip still didn't work. something like "assert" I think.
[General Questions and Answers] bonds350z:
hello everyone.

what are your ideas on the new ara modular smartphone. I love the idea, gone are the days of buying a new smartphone every year, now we can buy a base and add to it to suit my needs better.

they have the new tegra k1 base and a 64bit base. (sounds to me google wants to support the new microsoft 10 os)

talk about expandable batteries, cameras so suit anyones need, and what about the ability to dual boot different o.s just by swapping memory modules and rebooting the phone, I could go from running windows to linux in less than 2 minutes. I am just about as pleased with the progress so far and I hope this becomes a norm. we would be able to introduce really interesting apps that have never been thought of.

even on the performance side, we could possibly modify the cpu module to accept new ways of cooling for higher clockrates and better gpus and the aftermarket would go crazy with better and more innovative mods.

so all in all what are your ideas?
[General Questions and Answers] magnamentis:
this might be the unexpected answer you were looking for LOL (JK) but seriously, they will be ready before ARA is ready and

their gadget will be able to perform any task which ARA modules will with a few add-ons:

- hot plugging

- cross platform / cross-os

- by far greater choice of phones, not just two sizes of the same make

- certainly a lot more cost-effective etc.

[MENTION=6157646]bonds350z[/MENTION] let me know what you think, considering that you might be really interested in modular mobile computing, this is certainly worth a closer look :)
[General Questions and Answers] MichaelSutherland113:
I can't imagine this succeeding. To be modular the phone would naturally have to be bigger, and also likely more vulnerable to water and damage. It seems unlikely that it would be nearly as function or aesthetically pleasing as an integrated handset.:eek:
[XDA Assist] KobaltPanther:
I bought a used HTC Inspire 4g/DHD and it had already been flashed with "Jellytime." Thats all I really know. I know the basics of flashing and such. But here is the problem. Everything seemed in order, so i gave the phone to a friend to use, and then it started having a ton of issues. Video would go all wonky in landscape mode, phone would lock up, become unresponsive etc. So i attempted a factory restore via the boot menu and clockworkmod. Everything seemed to be going all good, then suddenly it gave me 2 errors saying it could not find and could not mount recovery files.

I thought, okay, weird, and let the phone finish doing what it is doing and restarted. It took probably 5-6 minutes after the restart and i finally got to the first screen to setup android (select language) and got a slew of pop up error messages saying XXX app has crashed or is not responding or that files were missing. and would not let me progress past that first screen. Now the phone will not even boot past the "jellytime" logo. (HTC logo flashes first, then jellytime animation and just stays there).

So i am at a loss as to what to do next because i cant get into android to enable USB debugging to use whatever process to reflash a suitable ROM. My friend really needs a phone back so a prompt response would be appreciated.

[XDA Assist] It_ler:
Maybe you have to re-flash the whole ROM. Startig freshly (with a factory reset / wipe data) is recommended.

Hey everyone. Been coming to this site for a good while now and recently just purchased a galaxy tab s 10.5 LTE from T Mobile. I love it. But of course I'd rather do without TouchWiz. Even a root would be so awesome for this model. My question is, is there anything I can do to get chainfire the firmware for this so it could possibly become compatible? I've searched high and low but looks like nothing is available for any of the SM-807 variants. Mine still uses the Exynos processor. Believe it was just Sprint and Verizon with the Snapdragon. Anyone with the 807 variant find anything available or have any idea if a root is anywhere in the near future lol. Just figured I'd ask. Or maybe someone went ahead and used a root for the 800 or 805 variants and it worked, however I'm sure that's highly unlikely. Thank you guys for your time!
