mitchst2,

Want to share a script (in init.d) disabling services. Perhaps it would be useful for you. And answer some questions. I do not have much time to complete started.

Before using the script, be sure to make a backup of your firmware in recovery!

Other easy ways to return to the original state does not exist.

Download the script, rename (remove the .txt extension) and copy it to the phone in the init.d directory, check the permissions on the same 755 or 777

hi

On Lollipop i've disabled 38 in google play service..all wareable..all kids...all fitness...analystic and advertysing and Drivesync...without issues...until now! :)

Obviously i don't use wereable and fitness app and not even google play music...

but i have a doubt, for example i disable: "CollectSensorService" (short name) -> con.google.android.gms.fitness.sensor.sample.CollectSensorService (Full name)

..this last disabled service stops the service sensor ONLY for the fitness? what you think?

and which settings you are using and how much battery savings?

Thanks in advance

PS: LL have more more services than KK !!!
[One (M7) Themes and Apps] mitchst2:
Very much trial and error. What I don't need will be different to someone else. My only advice would be don't rush in switching everything off. Otherwise if you encounter a problem you won't know what's caused it. A systematic approach is best. Pick them off one by one if need be.

Sent from my HTC One
[One (M7) Themes and Apps] Rix70:
yes, of course! A system approach is mandatory for understanding a bit.. ;)

I have not disabled it all at once...

Obviously the starting point is your setting..01....02...03...04 (thanks) ........and of these I added more services disabled, one or two at a time.. and test...

However...all wareable..all fitness and all kids...don't give any error. i use this from KK. Obviously i don't use wareable,fitness and kids and BT device for now.

(The setting 02 is most important! because the active service are the really causes for the drain....unfortunately I do not have much time for test!)

Hi mitchst2

Meanwhile thanks for the last new, I'm much curious to see..

I've a question for you ?

In disable service app today I noticed that the app disable two services by default.. on my phone

These two:

SHORT NAME: ProximitySettingInjectorService

com.google.android.location.copresence.service.ProximitySettingInjectorService

------------------

SHORT NAME: WorkAccountAuthenticatorService

com.google.android.gms.wearable.service.WearableControlService

That is normal or I have someone file DS that cause this..

Very thanks in advance.

I've been using this dock (link below) with Z1 phone for a year and it was ok, a bit wobbly. Then recently I got Z3 OEM dock which totally sucked and didn't work with the cases I bought. Luckily I still had the one for Z1 and I was surprised how nicely it fits. Without the case it still works, but has too much space on the sides, but with the Nilkin case it's a perfect fit and slides easily without having to align anything.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] V15:
I have had a search around to this, but have only found solutions involving installing 3rd party software on my device, but im sure that it is possible:

My problem is that when i receive an sms (or email through directPush), my device turns itself on as well as sounding the ringtone and vibrating. When the phone is in my pocket, the touchscreen part of the phone means that i end up loading Opera, opening emails and all sorts of stuff, which is plain annoying.

What i would like to have is that when i receive an sms or email, my phone alerts me with sound/vibration but importantly the touchscreen doesnt unlock.

Also, when i get a phone call, i only want the on/off button and the green and red answer/reject buttons to work - i dont want the touchscreen to activate. If i answer the call, then i would be happy for the screen to become active, but otherwise not.

Anyway, i found reference to an app MortSaver, which seems like it will do what i want, but im sure there must be a registry way to do it?

I found the following on the wiki, and wonder if it would be possible for me to somehow use this? Maybe deleting some 'a's? Has anyone used this before?

here's the deal, I got only 8gb microsd, and 6gb freespace internal storage

whenever I make nandroid backup using phillz, I always backup it on my 32gb otg flash drive

I always use titanium backup to restore apps+datas from nandroid backup, since the usual method always freeze/hang, so I copied the cwm backup to external microsd first, then, using titanium to restore it

recently my nandroid backups reach 7.63 gigs, and since my ext card only has 7.6 gb, so there isn't enuff space to copy the cwm backup onto the ext sd

and unfortunately titanium backup doesnt detect cwm backups on usb otg , is there a way to make it detect cwm backup on usb otg ?

Refer to this

One other thing worth mention is when you make CWM(Phillz) backup, make sure there is no previous backuped file in your device. CWM backup will backup everything including old CWM Backups, doesn’t matter it’s stored in External SD or internal, that’s totally waste of space. May it be the reason why you got 7G backup?

[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Accessories] baastrup:

[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Accessories] lowtraxx:
As far as I know for an active pen to work, one would need a display with a built in digitiser. AFAIK the Z3TC does not have one (I just tried the active one I have from my Vaio Duo 11 [N-Trig] and the one from my Thinkpad XT [Wacom] just to be sure).
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Accessories] infinitylook:
Not necessarily. Stylus like adonit jot touch is just a normal capacitive stylus until you pair it would bluetooth on an ipad. It becomes an active pen that has a palm reject support. The ipad screen is nothing in special, it's just a normal capacitive screen. The sdk for bluetooth support on the stylus is built in on ios itself and apps like goodnotes take advantage on it. Surprisingly, adonit works really well (i think it's more accurate than s-pen when it comes to screen output calibration.

[Moto G General] d33dvb:
FIRST THING FIRST, THIS IS DANGEROUS. DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK.

Myself and one other person have successfully done this. If you have success as well, please post here. What you DO NOT want to flash, and is the cause of bricks is motoboot.img that is older than what you have now. Just dont mess with it.

What you can do, is flash gpt.bin to get the partition tables re-partitioned to get you back to be able to flash roms from CWM, TWRP, Philz, etc.

That being said, this is my PERSONAL experience, and am only sharing because it got me out of GPE lollipop hell, and I was terrified of the bricks, like everyone else. I will attempt to be more clear in my OP.

I have an XT1034 that I converted to GPE to flash 5.0 Lollipop OTA and it gave me the new bootloader 41.18. I couldnt get to CM12 due to Status 7, and I could only flash 4.4.4 stock, lollipop stock, or CM11, any flashing to CM12 always gave errors about Status 7. Others have reported not being able to wipe /data or /system or mount either in any recovery. The problem is the updated partition table and here is the solution:

IF YOU DO NOT FOLLOW THIS DIRECTION YOU WILL HARD BRICK. DO NOT RUN THE BATCH FILE IN THE DOWNLOAD. IT CONTAINS 4.4.2 motoboot.img and YOU WILL BRICK. ONLY RUN THE COMMANDS LISTED BELOW!!!

ALSO DO NOT use an older gpt.bin, it must be 4.4.2 or newer!! Use the link below to get a 4.4.2 XT1034 stock rom.)

I flashed a 4.4.2 GPT.bin from this: US_retail_XT1034_KXB20.9-1.8-1.4_CFC.xml.zip (http://motofirmware.com/files/getdow...-14-cfcxmlzip/)

If you want to try the same thing, you can extract gpt.bin from the zip and run this: (ONLY!!)

fastboot flash partition gpt.bin

then download philz here: http://fs1.d-h.st/download/00145/DEw...8.7-falcon.img

rename to philz.img

fastboot flash recovery philz.img

Hold vol - and power, to reboot into recovery, then

format /system

format /data

Download the latest nightlies and gapps and push them like this:

adb push cm-10-10-1000.zip /data/media/0

Reboot into recovery, and flash cm12 and gapps.

[Moto G General] lost101:
I thought it had been established flashing the KitKat Partiton Table (gpt.bin) was the cause of downgrade hard-bricking.

It would appear the 4.4.4 Partition Table is specifically the cause.

People have been hard-bricking (now have to wait for full firmware images to fix) - because they flashed the 4.4.2 image and then applied the 4.4.4 OTA Update.

Perhaps you should mention that in OP.

I don't think a gpt.bin "4.4.2 or newer" is wise advice. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
[Moto G General] andogeek10:
It is possible to flash 4.4.4 gpt bin, bit it's not possible to OTA update to 4.4.4 from 4.4.2.
[Moto G General] lept_2014:
Exactly.

It's the same if you want come back from GPe to Retail Motorola STOCK, you need change GPe-partitions to Motorola-Partitions. There are some differents between both partitions:

GPE

'cache' -> 560,00 Mb
'system' -> 840,00 Mb

Motorola

'cache' -> 662,13 Mb
'system' -> 976,00 Mb

There is a partition with 2,28 Mb: In GPe is called 'metadata'; and in Motorola is Called 'padA'.

And there is a partition en GPE with 6,13 Mb called 'padC', but in Motorola didn't exists.

Any way, if you downgrade from LP, you don't must flash BL (motoboot.img), or you'll have a pretty brick.

I just don't understand why peoples push 4.4.2 into phones when there is "safer" 4.4.4 that works perfectly and you must be retarded to brick phone when flashing 4.4.4 and doing anything after it. I will say for sure that 80% of hard bricks are caused by 4.4.2 android and updating to 4.4.4(which makes no sense at all) or doing anything after 4.4.2. Just. Stop. Doing. That.

Flash everything from last KITKAT except motoboot and everything will be fine.

[Moto G General] d33dvb:

[Moto G General] d33dvb:
I am not suggesting that people flash the whole way back to 4. 4.2. I'm only saying that people need to flash the partition tables from 4.4.2 so then you can install recovery and move on to CM. Re read the op I tell you NOT to flash that rom, but to only update gpt.bin
