Battery BUG

Thanks for your battery pics, it really helps ;)

Please can i ask you,to make the following test:

(ONLY for those who have this nasty little bug )

When your device is reaching at ~20% Battery do this:

A: Disable the BatterySave Option (Settings> Battery) (if you have this enabled)

B: Disable SmartWake (If you have this enabled)

C: Disabled 4G (keep it on 2g/3g only options)

Reboot ...

Share your feedback:

A: Did it drop like before?

B: Did your battery last more time?

C: The same

Only for people running Jiayu Germany LP 5.1.1 Betas 4 & 5

And using original Battery

I know the stock Chinese LP, haves the same issue, but we already did some work on this since Beta4, so i need to keep this for Betas 4 & 5 only

Thanks

I am new to this but I was able to flash this ROM

How can you add this patch is it via recovery

Yes you just flash it via TWRP recovery.

[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] genesisalgor:
What would be the possibility of you guys, and us active users providing feedback. To be in something like a Facebook group to discuss about the Rom? and then you guys also could provide nightlies and test builds for us.

Regarding the camera, I gues this reset also explains that every time I open the camera for the first time it shows the MTK camera animation.

The probleme here is, that since LL the USB storage mode, its driverless for windows, is not working any longer. To connect

to the S3 windows needs a driver for MTP mode.

One more bug

From time to time it could not display the pictures from camera not from gallery nor from the camera it self... It fixes it self after reboot.. Made some attachments.

Wille i wass posting that sow one more strange thing about the Battery for 10 min on screen the battery droped 19%from 68% to 49%that happened after i installed DU battery saver(just to check will it be any deference) Hmmmm, made screenshot.!Maybe now that's the real percentage, if i don't have the battery drop that may be the case (50% usage 3h and 10 min, befor that was same hours but the battery was 68%)
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] DaKyy:
Similar experience here on beta4. When the 15% mark was hit the drop was very quick to 0%. I plugged in the charger before the phone died. Charged the battery to approx 50% and left it draing again. Now there was no sudden drop on 15%(voltage @ 3,615v) mark and it wen't to ~2%(3,525v) in very linear drop. Then I started to charge the phone again, but now the phone was stuck at 83% for about 20 minutes (4,316v). Then all of a sudden the percentage jumps to 97%. and another 20 seconds later, it is 100% (now at 4,275v) You just need to remove the 15% from the battery capacity ;)

BTW on beta4 there seems to be some sort of bug with dialing. When I make a call and the sim question should pop up, nothing happens. When I press the call button again, it appears normally. Don't know if this has been fixed on beta5... The sim setting for calling is "always ask".

Just installed (dirty way) 20150923 jiayu.de 5.1.1 beta5. Feels almost equal to 20150917 jiayu.cn 5.1 rc.

Or ... perhaps more fluid, and faster ...

I have not tested much yet

(and I have no exceptional expectations apart from speed and simplicity).

I noticed few minor things:

* system.img in ZIP needed recovery

(I am sure it does not matter much)

# file system.img

Linux rev 1.0 ext4 filesystem data, UUID=57f8f4bc-abf4-655f-bf67-946fc0f9f25b (needs journal recovery) (extents) (large files)

so I first did before flashing:

# fsck.ext4 system.img

* user name 'You' in settings was a chinese one (perhaps inherited from jiayu.cn 5.1 rc)

(too bad I did not save it, just curious what default name it could have been ...)

* App permissions icon no longer in notification bar (I guess upon popular demand). Fine with me. I liked it though.

* 'fota update' FC-ed but stopped doing so after I cleared its cache and data

ROM is so far perfect. Congratulations to developers! Release will be a killer.

Please keep it lean, simple and mean ;)

Just had a look at a phone Bluboo x550, and it has a monster 5300mah battery. And surprisingly, that phone with a mt6735 chip has the 15% battery bug.

I was like "HOLY SH!T!! THIS PHONE HAS THE SAME FCUKING PROBLEM AS OURS!!!"

I think this bug is a mediatek problem. Maybe a kernel problem as I guess it must be in many android 5.1 devices.

Hi all, there is a bug in 5.1.1. I cannot get my laptop to recognize the phone and give me access to my internal SD card and phone storage. If I boot into twrp recovery the laptop immediately recognizes the phone and gives me access to the SD card etc. Reboot into 5.1.1 I get nothing! The phone will charge.. I can do a firmware upgrade via flash tools. The VCOM Driver is loaded and stable. I am on windows 7 and tried everything I can think of. Reinstalled the rom, turned USB debugging on in developer options. I have got a MTP driver error a couple of times when I was booting from recovery into the rom. Apart from that the Rom seems perfect. HELP! What setting am I missing. I came from KK4.4.4 to 5.1.1 could that have something to do with it. I am also running APEX Launcher, but I could get the phone recognized on the default one either. I have tried multiple cables as well

I know the battery bugs important but any ideas would be appreciated.

Aussie
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] Dior DNA:
Recurring question: does anyone in close contact with Jiayu know if

S3 kernel source may become public? Like, say, for Elephone p8000. Given

reorganisation and Jiayu's cooperation with developers, perhaps there

is hope for the MTK linux kernel source to become available? ...

---------- Post added at 03:13 ---------- Previous post was at 02:51 ----------

The fact that both 32 and 64 bit code needs to run, and, therefore, both 32 and 64 bit shared libraries (and maybe art caches?) may need to be loaded, perhaps contributes to more RAM usage? The less legacy code eventually will need 32 bit support, the less RAM usage may probably be required in the future ... Also: 32 and 64 bit versions of shared libraries sure take more /system space too, but that will have to stay until the last 32 bit dependency (if ever) leaves our S3.

Good morning, something curious reguard drop. On mine the battery drop begins at 20%. I made a screenshot while droping fast at 7% of battery, after that in a view seconds the phone shutdown completely. I plugin the charger and boot again at 1% of battery. Then i launch the Ampere app and saw that the voltage was higher then while droping down fast at 7%. I charge up to 5% plug of the charger and the phone shows the correct battery procent and went down to 0% as it should without droping fast.

34% battery 3,533

25% battery 3,437

19% battery 3,424

7% battery 3,417

Aftery system shutdown at 0% plugin charger and boot again at 1%

Hi downloaded the UniversalADBDriverSetup6.msi and installed it and get the attached error. This all worked perfectly under official kk4.4.4. Does USB debugging need to be enabled.

Any ideas

Hi After loading the ADP drivers I have had a look at USBDeview to see the USB drivers are running. I can see that it is seeing the JIAYU S3 and I can See the ADP driver but there is no Port allocated and the connected column says no. Every now and then i get the error previously posted. I am trying to understand is this a fault in 5.1.1 or do I have driver fault and if so how to fix it. Everything worked perfectly on kk4.4.4. Given that the only change I have made is the ROM I am at a loss. Are there driver differences between kk and lp.

[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] 1testi:
This has nothing to do with Beta5 or any other ROM, also not with settings of the S3.

Maybe you have the same problem as "adridu59" some days ago. If you tried all USB ports, with different PCs also,

different wires and still nothig, the last explanation is, that there is something wrong with the USB sideboard of

the S3.

To check this you have to flash one of the KK ROM, because the driverless USB Storage Mode is working then.

If you get no result with a KK ROM also, its definitely the sideboard.

[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] Dior DNA:
I can understand the situation.

From linux point of view, either there is no support in the kernel (which can be checked) or there is.

If there is then, if device does not show, it's a device (or cable or device port or host port) problem.

A device problem can be software or hardware.
