Helium is like TB but doesn't require root.

---------- Post added at 09:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:03 PM ----------

You must have done something really bad in your previous life to get a bad battery life from an upgrade :)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HwaA18:
I was having issues with my battery as well. I did a hard reset using IDRIVE and G Cloud as my main backups as well as a full SD card backup to the computer. The battery life improved only a little bit. Lollipop really screwed over the battery. Normally at this hour I'd have 53% left. (17 hr day with about 2-3 hour SOT). Now I'm at 27% with the same 17hrs and 2-3 hrs of SOT...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhom52:
I'd suggest a batter pull before doing an FDR if battery life is your only concern. It might save you some reinstall time. It worked for me.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supertoast92:
I just did a factory reset yesterday; not really worth the time. I got minimal battery life increase, but it could just be a placebo effect. I wasn't having terrible battery drain before I did the reset, though, so it could help others with major drain (cannot make it through a day when you could with KitKat, for example).
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droidiac13:
WHAT?!?!!? That's awesome. I didn't know that and from the post I replied to, he said "helium for root" so I assumed it was needed. I'm all over that then! Thanks!
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wws12:
Hey all-

As of late, I have noticed that my in-call volume has been very quiet, almost inaudible. I have tried flashing a few different ROMS to see if that makes a difference, but it did not. Could this be something with the modem, or just one hell of a bug?

Currently running AOSP 5.1.

Thanks,

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pittnuma:
Hi all,

Odd query, I had a problem with updating CM12 and ended up completely reformatting it.

After having done so I am all up and running, I set the phone up how I was before, however when I checked my router for something else I noticed my phone is connected 7 times on different IP addresses, all with the same MAC address (these are live IP's), if I turn the phone off they show as disconnected and they all reconnect when the phone goes back on.

Is this how 5ghz wifi works or has something changed in the way phones connect to wifi that I have missed? I can't figure out what each of the IP's is doing.

I don't have any unknown apps on my phone at present except googles, tasker, greenify and HD widgets oh and AVG as I thought I may for some reason have a virus, but that comes back clean.

What am I missing, apart from a brain cell? Advanced search only showed people asking if multiple IP addresses was possible, so maybe CM has figured it out!!

Regards

Pitt

Can you actually ping every one of those IP addresses?

Hi,

I downloaded an OTA-update for T-Mobile (CID 111) and want to backup this file before installing the update.

But I can´t find the location of the OTA-file. On my old One M7 the OTA was located in downloads - but this is not the location on my M9.

Were is the OTA-file-location?

If your rooted look in data/data/com.htc.updater/files
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nemesis01:
I´m not rooted yet, thats why the data-partition in ES-Explorer looks empty.

Bevore rooting I would like to update the firmware (because s-off is not yet released). And (this is more important) I would like to have a "original" recovery-backup. Otherwise it may be difficult to go back from twrp to stock in case of sending the phone back for repair.

Is there any way to pull the OTA-file from the data-partition (maybe with adb?) Or can I mount data as read only to copy the OTA-file?

Thx Nem.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nemesis01:
I found a solution:

With "adb backup -all /data/data/" I got a backup.ab on my computer. And with Android Backup Extractor I decoded the backup.ab to backup.tar. Then I got my OTA-file "OTA_HIMA_UHL_L50_SENSE70_TMO_DE_1.32.111.15-1.32.111.6_release_426744.zip".

Hi nemesis01,

Will you be able to point me to the right direction?

I'm trying to mimic what you did with the Htc M9 but can't get the same out come.

Here is what i did.

"adb backup -all /data/data/ -f C:\backup.ab"

After that I used the unpack with Android Backup Extractor

"java -jar abe.jar unpack backup.ab backup.tar"

After unzipping the Tar, only a directiory called "Apps" inside.

Couldn't find anything with OTA in it.

Hi, in my attempts to get Lollipop from the stock rom of 4.4.4, I have severely screwed up my phone. I have tried a bunch of stuff, and I want to just wipe everything and start over. When I turn it on, it stays stuck at the green HTC logo.

When I try to run the RUU to either upgrade to Lollipop or even downgrade to get my phone working again, it gets stuck on the Sending... screen after rebooting the first or second time.

I am able to use fastboot and also get into TWRP recovery. I hope the screenshots and info provided are enough, but please let me know if I can provide more.

You could download a twrp backup and restore back to stock..
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
from the first screenshot (bootloader), the

red OS line with two versions

means the flash didnt go through properly!! (the hboot preupdate worked but the second flash wasnt done)

and it looks like you're on AT&T US, so use the following RUU:

http://dl3.htc.com/application/RUU_...40.45.C33065.00_F_release_426617_signed_2.exe

make sure you have this installed http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=29

(otherwise the RUU will just exit)

no need to relock or anything with S-OFF (and absolutely

stay S-OFF!!

)

PS: running RUU will obviously wipe everything off your phone and also put back stock recovery, so you'll need to flash back TWRP once the RUU is done
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ethteck:
Thank you both for your advice. I was able to get everything (or so I thought) working by using a TWRP backup, but I soon realized that most of my apps weren't working correctly. I was getting errors trying to download language packs for Swiftkey, Facebook wouldn't even open, etc. I'm currently trying the RUU, but it's doing what it had been doing in the past.

Here's a screenshot of what it looks like:
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
how long are you waiting? it does take some time...

otherwise, you'll need to flash firmware using fastboot (in ruu mode), cause currently your firmware is in a state of limbo, so not good place to be in

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] NokiaIRL:
Ok so I have 2 issues, my jasjar was bought in february 06, making it 15 months old. Recently my usb socket came loose. Ive been doing some little botched repairs which last about a week each. Is there any definitive DIY guide to repairing this socket in a more permanent way, Im quite a skilled solderer so nothing will scare me.

the 2nd issue is battery life, between 45 and 50% my phone will just cut out and keep restarting until i plug in the usb for a while. Is this normal with a 15 month old battery ??? would a hard reset fix this ???
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] CWKJ:

---------- Post added at 12:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:48 AM ----------

perhaps also worth mentioning, in my search to find this problem, I created a file to run at startup which sets selinux to permissive and chmods the xml files for powernap to global read write (i don't care :p)

[Xposed Framework Modules] AnonVendetta:
I haven't used this module for a long time. On Marshmallow+, you don't need it, because Doze mode is built into Android. But on anything up to Lollipop, PowerNap is still beneficial. Having SELinux in permissive mode makes this module work fine. If you're on Marshmallow+, check out ForceDoze/NapTime/Greenify/Doze Settings Editor. Out of those 4, I personally prefer ForceDoze, but they're all good. These apps let you fine-tune Doze mode. The best thing about these apps is that they don't require Xposed, you can use them with root. In some cases (like ForceDoze) you can set it up with ADB instead of root, which lets you reap the benefits without rooting. In terms of Doze mode vs PowerNap, I would say doze saves more battery overall. You can use both, but it's pointless, and your battery life savings will be minimal at best.

[Xposed Framework Modules] waylaidwanderer:
It should work, as long as you get Xposed working!

It's been confirmed that it DOES NOT WORK with 5.1 due to ART changes.

Yep, Power Nap will let your whatsapp/bbm/snapchat receive notifications while all the other ones will be prevented from waking the phone.

Yes, I can theoretically support all the way down to Gingerbread, but I wanted to start off with a smaller audience because I can't test with any older devices yet. But I'll definitely be adding Jellybean support soon!

I am not discouraging your work but isn't it quite similar to Amplify?
[Xposed Framework Modules] TNSMANI:
Can you give another method for downloading the app since I am allergic to Google+?
[Xposed Framework Modules] SyCoREAPER:
^This. Was just about to ask that.
[Xposed Framework Modules] TNSMANI:
It may be similar, yes but Amplify works differently. In Amplify, you choose to disable/control things and in the hands of noobs, it can lead to bootloops. Here, the Dev chooses the things that can be stopped and being a Dev, he is experienced and knows what he is doing. In addition, Amplify works 24/7 whereas this app will work only when screen is off.

Plus this has a white list which will help you to decide what to allow.

I like the concept and would like to try it if the Dev offers another method of downloading the app.
[Xposed Framework Modules] ..::Matr!x::..:
no totally different... stamina mode on sony stock roms it's more similar to leandroid or Deep Sleep Battery Saver app (screen goes off and traffic and other process go sleep)... but without loosing any notification of whitelisted apps...
[Xposed Framework Modules] SyCoREAPER:
Which leads into the next question, can this be safely used alongside Greenify or is it redundant?
[Xposed Framework Modules] waylaidwanderer:
Amplify allows wakelocks/alarms on a schedule (every 5 minutes while the screen is off), and uses a blacklist as opposed to a whitelist. Power Nap stops the wakelock/service/alarm from waking up the phone at all. I'm not sure if you can blacklist a specific app with Amplify, but with Power Nap you're able to control which apps are whitelisted, and any service/wakelock/alarm belonging to a non-whitelisted app will be blocked.

Plus I'll be adding more features to make it a general power-saving app as well, so look out for that soon!
[Xposed Framework Modules] waylaidwanderer:
Greenify hibernates apps while the screen is off, but I believe with Greenify you can hibernate apps while the screen is on as well(aka phone is in use). Power Nap only "hibernates" when the screen is off. So depending on what you use it for, you can either get rid of Greenify or keep it. But even if you use it alongside each other, it shouldn't have any ill effects.

The only reason I'm using G+ is because the app is in very early alpha (while it works, it's not pretty and Endurance Mode is the only feature right now). By joining the community and then downloading the app through the Play Store, I'll be able to get basic statistics (no GAnalytics yet) and crash reports.

It might take a while for it to show up for you. It did the same to me when I tried to view it in the Play Store at first!

Some modules do work over 5.1 with the Xposed SUPER ALPHA, does this one works? if someone tried, plz share with us :good:

Yes except it doesn't even work properly with touchwiz lollipop as people have reported across various other devices. So bottom line if you want to use xposed, stay off of lollipop until it gets worked out.

And it would be possible to try. You'd have to open the zip and push everything in it to the right places then install the xposed app. I don't think it will do anything but cause force closes and probably force you to odin to stock though from what I've heard. I wouldn't try it without SS or a backup but if some brave soul wants to give it a shot be prepared for the worst.
