And it doesn't even look that bad in my opinion. If they move it that's okay. If they leave it, that's okay. Same with the uncentered top speaker grill. It doesn't bother me. That being said, i wouldn't upgrade to the m9 from the m8, unless my m8 was broken. Which it is. I think the m9 is mainly targeted for m7 or onex/evo4glte users that never upgraded to the One series because if the 4up idea (which wasn't even as bad as it was made out to be). Which means... They should have had the camera software ready. If they do fix it, then great. but they are already losing customers because of the stuff going around about the"disappointing camera" gahh.

I'd say the best design change would be make the next either thinner, or don't have the camera protruding. That's about it. The phone is beautiful. They should make the HTC logo on the back stand out more. The two tone colors are nice, they should make the HTC lettering on the rear of the phone golden, too.

[Nexus 5 General] seh6183:
I have been trying on and off for over a year to eliminate these horrible wakelocks without disabling location services all together, and have finally found a solution.

I have tried wakelock terminator, amplify, and various other tweaks without the results I was looking for. I could only stop them by disabling location completely. Even with GPS only enabled the phone will eventually want to find its location and then if you're in a building where there is no GPS single, it will kill your battery trying to find one. So I finally stumbled across SlimLP which is an AOSP rom that has app ops baked into it. I found that if I simply modify the permissions of google play services and not allow it to use location, and also disable its ability to hold a wakelock, the nlp wakelocks (both) are gone forever. However, as soon as nlp is gone, the phone falls back to its backup plan which is RILJ to locate itself. So I then went into the phone apps permissions and disabled location and wakelock for it too. FINALLY these wakelocks are gone forever. My phone now loses 3% over 8 hours without disabling location services. There are literally 10 or less wakelocks system wide over 8 hours while I sleep, which is a huge contrast to the waking once every 25 seconds to check my location (or whatever absurd rate it was doing it). The only thing I can spot thats out of place it that google play services is registering a ton of alarms for location related stuff in better battery stats. I'm happy with this so far but feel it could be even better once I learn more.

What I really want to do is to be able to apply this to any android phone, such as my girlfriends z3. Unfortunately I can only get this to work with AOSP roms that have app ops built into them. I tried adding app ops to google based roms and even aosp roms and it doesnt work the same. If anyone could tell me what is different about roms with app ops built in, that would be great. I think we should look into this more to learn as much as possible because this affects everyone with an android phone. Thanks for reading.
[Nexus 5 General] treehugger38294:
Wrong section...you might want to try Xposed and Amplify.

EDIT: I just realized I posted wrong section. For some reason, I thought this was Android Dev. Sorry
[Nexus 5 General] seh6183:
I've tried amplify as stated in the op. I'm surprised more people aren't bothered by wakelocks. I can't stand them.
[Nexus 5 General] treehugger38294:
They're necessary to some degree. Google Now and other location-based/sync programs need them to work. They just get annoying when they're fired up every minute.
[Nexus 5 General] seh6183:
Well I've disabled the wakelocks and every location service including google now still functions as normal. The only benefit is me gaining 50% of my battery back. I just need to figure out what is so special about AOSP ROMs that have app ops baked in so I can apply these techniques to other phones.
[Nexus 5 General] hayzooos:
So the App Ops Xposed module doesn't work the same way?
[Nexus 5 General] seh6183:
It works exactly the same except for some odd reason the wakelocks won't stop when you start disabling google play services and phone. It will disable other things without any problems. I'm thinking that maybe SlimLp has a different google play services app with different permissions or something. I'm not exactly sure what it is yet but I'm still looking into it on a daily basis. All I know is that 9000 wakelocks at the end of the day from google play services is UNACCEPTABLE and pisses me off. So I set out to find a way to stop them.
[Nexus 5 General] hayzooos:
Glad you found a way to stop them and more so you decided to post your way to stop them here.
[Nexus 5 General] Zwambo:
Cataclysm Rom also has a App Ops. So I assume i can get same improvements as you do?

Or am I wrong and thinking the opposite direction?
[Nexus 5 General] seh6183:
It should work yes. Go into google play services from apps, its in settings, then click modify, then disable location and wake lock. Do the same for phone. There are two phone apps and a dialer making it confusing. You'll want to disable the location and wakelock setting on the phone app which has the location toggle. The other phone app doesn't have a location toggle and you'll know that's not the right one.

After doing this, if you monitor with wake lock detector, you'll see that both NLP wakelocks are stopped completely instead of the 1000 an hour like usual. Same goes for RILJ. Google play services is still generating thousands of alarms each day for location related stuff and I have found a way to fix that as well but it needs more testing.

To put it simply, when my phone goes to sleep, that exactly what I want it to do, not appear as if its asleep and constantly check my location so that it can better offer me ads and places of interest near by.
[Nexus 5 General] setspeed:
Doesn't the Phone app NEED to be able to keep the phone awake, so that it doesn't go to sleep mid-call?
[Nexus 5 General] seh6183:
It has no effect on the function of the phone at all except to eliminate the RILJ wakelock. I'm pretty sure this wakelock is the phones radio trying to triangulate your position using cell towers but not sure.
[Nexus 5 General] Gentaz:
All solutions I've seen or heard about untill now are just workarounds, and I found an elegant solution that allows geoloc to be on all the time.

I detailed it in a battery thread because of the savings it can offer : it consist of an app that replaces nlp with a local db : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=59184505

I didn't try out with all google goeloc services but maps didn't seem to bother...
[Nexus 5 General] seh6183:
My solution has zero impact on location services as well. You're saying that your method totally stops NLP wakelocks and if you were to open maps, it would lock your location precisely?
[Nexus 5 General] Zwambo:
Thx a million!

Will look in to those settings from the phone apps and google play services. Love it when the app ops is included in the ROM!
[Nexus 5 General] Gentaz:
The fact that the gapps have a mind of their own is not big news, but alternatives exists to avoid dealing with them☺

I didn't say it will stop any wakelock (and I don't want to) : on the contrary, it consist of replacing the stock nlp with a more evolved one that allows to switch to a local db which is far less battery consuming for several reasons.

I didn't say it was "gps precise" either : it will locate you at the nearest antenna if you try a gps app like maps (did you actually read my link ?). Most of the time it has between 500m and 1500m (about a mile) uncertainty reported by the apps.

It just provides precise enough geoloc services for 95% of the apps you're using, even with your screen off like weather, loc. based profile mangers, local news, traffic, job/dating app or whatever... Granted : it won't compete with gps for you navigation or atronomy app but that's the 5% left when you'll switch the gps on ?

There should be a reason why you have so much wakelocks that does not involve blocking calls from a middleware as an answer.
[Nexus 5 General] seh6183:
If its crippling the phones ability to locate itself accurately then I am not interested as occasionally navigation is important to me. Also of it doesn't stop wakelocks then I am certainly not interested. The way that you word things makes it very difficult to get your point across I might add. I had a hard time following your post.
[Nexus 5 General] Donnie Sins:
What I did to get zero battery drain with GPS set on high accuracy:

- Download Disable Service from Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cn.wq.disableservice&hl=nl

- Go to System, then Google Play Services and disable everything that has something to do with 'Wear' and 'Fitness' since I don't use any of these features (for me these gave me wakelocks, but I'm not sure if this is the case for everyone), so: BrokeredFitnessService, WearableControlService, WearableService and WearableSyncService.

- Download LBE Security Master (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1422479) for its permission manager.

- Disable any location permission of all your apps that you don't want to use GPS (and other permissions to save more battery, but that's another topic).

I have to say I have Google Now disabled, and of course my phone is rooted to be able to use these apps. I run stock rom with stock kernel, and my battery is great with GPS enabled constantly.
[Nexus 5 General] Gentaz:
I guess you missinterpreted what I said : just enable gps when you need navigation... Gsm based location accuracy is ok for all the rest.

- wakelock issues either came from the way the phone is set up or an uncommon situation causing this (bug, bloat, bad network or gps reception...) : blocking them is not a solution, it's a workaround and, if I undestood you correctly, is only valid for some cases and is fastidious/maintenance intensive. There are already many nexus 5 and other threads dealing with those issues anyway and It would be easier to just disable geoloc when screen is off.

- I suggested a solution less battery draining for 95% of goeloc based needs and is valid for most android phones and roms as long as you have root, not yet another a nlp/wakelock blocking "trick".

It's ok if your girlfriend doesn't mind having her z3 flashed with an ASOP ops enabled rom and learn to block the wakelocks of the new apps she installs, but I prefer not having to explain mine what a wakelock is ☺

- It doesnt cripple your phone at all, it extends its possibilities by adding a gsm based backend to the location provider : your phone was already doing the same except it had to go to a google hosted database to match your location to your antenna or ip when it is set to use network based location.
[Nexus 5 General] seh6183:
Your solution is very interesting for sure and something I will try, but my gut feeling is that google play services is still going to look for my location just as often, waking the phone, even though it's communicating with a different database.

Also I'm not sure if you're suggesting that my phone specifically is having NLP wakelocks because it is broken or setup incorrectly, but if so that is totally inaccurate. All android phones are suffering from this wakelock whether the user is aware of it or not. The only ones not having NLP wakelocks are the ones who have disabled location services or somehow turned off the wakelock like I have.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slim-95:
I had the Nexus 5 since launch and its been working fantastically well until it suddenly shuts down by it self in the last couple of days now

As soon i start the camera app, snapchat, watch you tube or listen music (with screen off). The phone goes blank, shuts down and refuses to boot back unless i plug in the mains usb cable which is absurd as the battery was around 60% and clearly there was enough power left. Strangely the phone forgets all my saved wifi passwords and have to connect manually each time the phone shuts down.

I have tried all assortment of troubleshooting methods such as upgrading and downgrading from KitKat to Lollipop , cleared the cache and running though safe mode and calibrating the battery but the problem stills persists

I did replace the screen back in November 2014 and it was work fine until this week.

I have opened the back casing and checked for anything that might be loose but i cant see anything wrong with the components.

I believe the battery is failing and want to know if i can resolve it from any other methods i haven't tried yet. I will be ordering new battery for nexus 5 and see if it solves the problem.

Looks like we have the same issue. Just for posterity, what rom were you running, if lollipop, did you try and install the xposed for lollipop? I can't get into download mode, can you? If you can, you should be able to correct this with Odin, search for it in the S4 thread. Either way please report back so we can try and figure out why this happened.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mjrBud:
Same symptom I had. If power comes on by itself upon battery insertion and phone shuts down after a few seconds it is caused by a stuck power switch. To fix it repeatedly whack the switch on the corner of a table. You will know it's fixed when the phone doesn't turn on by itself when the battery is inserted. This is a common problem with S4's but was difficult to search for and find the answer.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Travisdroidx2:
I had the same issue. Put the battery in and it vibrate once and then shows custom padlock and then shut off. Found the same thing on you tube. The smack trick. However, I did not use a table but a book or something semi hard. Smack the phone several times on the power button side and it will work.

This might be an issue with a faulty power button. I had that issue with one of my s4s. the internal switch wore out and the phone would start to boot and then turn off and reboot. and this would continue until i jiggled the power switch.

noobie question -

So I finally rooted my phone today because I got sick of looking at all the AT&T Bloatware (and also being unable to update my phone since I use it on t-mobile)

after rooting, how do i get the latest "unbloated" software version ? 4.4.4 please, no lollipop until they fix all the bugs.

Can someone direct me to a step by step process of putting (flashing?) the official HTC software (ROM?)

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think 5.0 is official and fully working on Sprint. I thought that's what the newer Verizon 5.0 Sense custom ROMs were based on. I'm on Verizon so I don't go milling about the Sprint forum, but I'd imagine there'd be a debloated stock or lightly modified ROM out there. If you're just unlocked and not s-off you'd need to flash the boot.img separately, but the ROM thread or a help thread should explain how that works of you're unfamiliar.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Light_Canuck:
Hey folks,

First time poster here, but have been following this awesome community for a few months now. So with that being said, I've landed myself in deeper water then I had hoped to see on my first foray into the world of tinkering on my tablet. I feel I should also disclose my epic newb moment, where in I ran headlong off the cliff with making proper (any) backups :eek:

I've been doing a lot of reading the last couple days to try and solve the issue, found lots of radical advice, but sadly haven't managed to get myself any further ahead. I was hoping that with a little list of what the TF201 is doing & what I've tried since, that you folks might be able to shed some light on what I've done and what I can try.

The Problem:

I've got a TF201, unlocked, TWRP 2.6.3.0. ADB access from command prompt. Sadly that's all I've got at this time (No OS, No fastboot). I cannot seem to install an OS now, but can still push files over to the tablet/view them. As far as I can tell, I'm have Brick 1a from this post: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1514088 . It references (CWM), so Im not sure these steps are applicable (My understanding is this is a recovery manager though I could be mistaken).

I've also explored:

Etc.

So my question is, is there a process I can follow from TWRP to get me back to fastboot access? OR am I looking at the problem from the wrong angle? Any advice or suggestions would be appreciated. Apoligies in advance if this is addressed elsewhere! If there is any additional info I can provide please let me know.

***Update***

Now have fastboot access, continuing to proceed with caution. Attempting to install a rom now.

***Update 2***

Still have fastboot access, however now can't access recovery :( when I fastboot devices my device now shows up as ??????????? Fastboot, rather then the letters/numbers it used to show. Feeling like I've slid her a little deeper into the mud. Also a lot of "unrecoverable boot error 0x00000000"

Get yourself back into fastboot. I'm guessing you got there by typing adb reboot fastboot from in TWRP.

You will need to make sure your fastboot and adb exes are compatible so try these. http://flumpster.lolcakes.com/android/adb-fastboot.zip

I know they are old but I also know they worked.

Next you would have to make sure you had the correct drivers installed. I've always used these. http://www.koushikdutta.com/post/universal-adb-driver
