I hope some can tell my if it is possible to use smilies in a sms both when i am writing one but also when I receive one... does such software exist:D
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] fone_fanatic:
yes there is a software that does this that comes with the imate roms... i believe its called xsms or something like that.

It also allows you to send Handwritten sms, and everytime you recieve a smiley sms it whistles...

anyone with an imate rom loaded care to share the name? I'm in the process of flashing to elf v2 and haven't used an imate rom since like 2 weeks after i got my jasjam

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dramalicious:
Try to root and track all the services..u might have a massive wakelock..but..i don.t know..this story it.s a nightmare :| it.s preety strange to have such a battery drain..
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fullpampers:
Thank you. I just rooted the phone, I'll charge to 100% and post pics of what betterbatterystats shows.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dramalicious:
Also u can try to calibrate the battery , u can find some apps on Play Store
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fullpampers:
Thanks I'll look into that too.

It's weird because today I only rooted the phone, and stock battery app tells me I have 12 hours on full charge (I still don't see everything in the list) instead of 8-9 hours...

In betterbatterystats i have 9.x%/hr battery drain, compared to 12-20%/hours before rooting... It makes no sense.

I'm charging to phone to full and I'll see what happened with the battery tomorrow morning.

Also I read in other threads here that it can possibly have something to do with the wifi network. I don't even know where to begin on this one... But i did log into a different network at work this week because the usual one wasn't available where i was in the building. Which I hadn't done until now, and my phone had been switching for one network to another when i moved in the building.

Like I said I don't even know where to start if it' sa network/router thing. And I don'T even know if it is at all possible that this could be the source of the problem. And nothing changed at home.

I'm just considering every possible options as I am really stumped, and nothing that has happened until now makes sense... Like the phone getting better battery life from rooting or monitoring with BBS while rooted. It makes no sense.

I didn't mention but all localisation and wifi scanning options have been deactivated. Brightness is at minimum with auto brightness on. Wifi is always on during sleep because I use Fongo to make and receive calls on VoIP.

I never checked battery status before, but i seem to remember having 16-20 hours of battery life if I didn't use the phone.

I can live with having 5-8 hours of usage time, but as is, if i don't fully charge the phone before going to bed (i left it plugged in the last few days), it's dead in the morning and i have to open up the phone to boost the battery....

Thanks again for the help, I'll see if my phone is dead tomorrow, and try a calibration app.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fullpampers:
Just installed Battery Calibration and will try to calibrate when the phone reaches 100%
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fullpampers:
Ok so after installing a new battery, flashing roms, clean install, rooting, betterbatterystats, battery calibration...

I still have the drain... I don't know why I didn't test this earlier, but I charged the phone last night and shut it down before going to sleep. It was at 90% when shutting down, and 17% when booting up this morning...

So now I'm charging at 100%, and I'll unplug the battery for a couple of hours to see if it's the battery itself that doesn't hold a charge...

I have looked for a physical short in the phone and haven't found one...

If it's not the battery I'll try to unplug modules one at a time and leaving the battery plugged in to see if unplugging something stops the drain.

If i can't find the source of the drain, I guess the brick wall is my last option...

If anyone has any ideas, I'm all ears.

Thanks
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blacksmith5:
You may have some apps running the background causing the drain. You might check out Greenify App from the App store. It will manage any apps running in the background and it is very simple to use.

I hope that helps........ I seriously doubt that your battery is bad. What version of Lollipop are you on?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fullpampers:
Running 4.4.4 right now, just to try a different version of android. was running 5.1 before.

How can apps cause draining if the phone is completely powered down?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZaNobey:
with a voltmeter you can check if it may is hardware related..but you have to find someone who knows about circuits and stuff..(I don't know)..
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fullpampers:
After 4.5 hours with the battery unplugged, the battery retained it's charge.... I'll look again for physical shorts...

This sucks, we're getting closer to the brick wall....
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fullpampers:
Yeah I thought about using a voltmeter to try and find the short, but with out a schematic, I'd just be blindly probing stuff.

I'll try and isolate modules to see if i can find which one is drawing from the battery. but if it's not just swapping out parts. I guess I'm screwed...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bringonblink:
Looking at your BBS logs, your phone is in deep sleep for 98% which is actually very good, minimal wakelocks. Only awake for 9 minutes of of 9 hours.

Looking at the battery lost levels is a bit more telling. You should not be loosing 7.5% an hour, especially with these stats, it should be more around 1%.

Download battery monitor widget and see what your battery drain is like over a 12 hour period. Post results
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fullpampers:
I'm 90% sure there is something physically (hardware) wrong with the phone.

Last night I charged the battery to 100%, unplugged all modules from the main logic board and left it in the case (so battery plugged into logic board, logic board still in front frame assembly, i left the power and volume buttons in). With the phone powered down.

When I woke I reassembled the phone, battery was at 30%.

Tonight I'll do the same thing but take the battery/logic board out of the frame assembly. If it still drains, then it's the logic board, if not i would suspect a short between the board and the frame of the phone or one of the power/volume buttons.

I really hope it's one of either because if it's something wrong with the logic board, I'm not going to buy a new one. I guess I could look into getting a phone with a broken glass from someone and swapping the logic board, but at the prices people are selling these phone, I might just change phone altogether.

Again, this effin' sucks....
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fullpampers:
Looks like it's the logic board (motherboard, whatever the kids call it)

The battery plugged into only the logic board (all other modules removed), outside the phone, still drew about 7-9% an hour. The part just above where the battery plugs in got slightly warmer, so maybe it's that part... As to if I can/want to find one and replace it is another story.

Looks like I'm going to have to buy a new phone...

Anyone have any idea if this can be fixed/where to get a cheap main board? Or I just trash the phone?

I'm having some issues with my TPLink router configuration and I need some advice. I got a new Nexus 6 and it don't want to connect to my home network but it connects just fine to others open WiFI so I think something is bad on my router config. I'm using stock ROM build LNX07M which is 5.0. I have attached the config options as are on my router, can any give me some help on this topic?

PS: I'm getting a software update to 5.0.1 over OTA, how secure is this? What is happen if I lost WiFI connection? Can I break my phone?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _Dennis_:
Looks like your router is fine from what I see. Make sure the region is set the same as on your phone as this effects what channels are available.

Edit: by the way it's fine to download. You download to a cache and after it is downloaded it is verified then it is flashed. So you don't really have to worry about if it drips connection or what not, it'll just re-download.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reynierpm:
Yeah, I had change the region and now WiFi works, what about the second inline question regarding OTA update? Is secure?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _Dennis_:
Yea see the edit section in my last post, basically its secure and safe to download/flash.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J.Diogo:
Hey guys, quick question.

In this thread http://xdaforums.com/google-nexus-5/general/ref-nexus-5-stock-ota-urls-t2475327 it says "Current firmware: Android Android 5.1, Build LMY47D or LMY47I, depending on country.".

What's this depending on country? What countries have what versions?

In this site http://www.randomphantasmagoria.com/firmware/nexus-5/hammerhead/ it says "LMY47I was only released to LGD821 devices with SIM cards from certain countries and carriers.".

My question is what phones should install what versions?

The D820 is the North American version, and the D821 is the Rest of the World version right?

Thanks for your attention. :good:
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images

Either should be fine. Everything in the D821 is the same as the D820 with the exception of which radio bands they can access.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J.Diogo:
OK. So, even the D820 can install the 47I version? I thought that the software was different because it has to "control" different bands.

Thanks for your answer! :good:
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gorgtech:
D820 and D821 are nearly the "same" devices but sold in different regions ;) ( The only difference is the supported bands ).

http://www.androidcentral.com/nexus-5-models-whats-different-between-two
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J.Diogo:
So the software that controls the bands is the same although they are different?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Primokorn:
Yes. The same applies for bootloaders, radios, kernels...
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J.Diogo:
OK. Thanks. I always thought the software would be slightly different on the two phones because of the different bands.
[Verizon LG G3] steber04:
So for some reason, I decided to use a KDZ to get rid of my root and be able to upgrade to 23c OTA.. After a few hours I hate it and want to get rid of it.. Can I just use the same 12b KDZ and push it through in download mode to get rid of lolipop? I wanted to try something besides what I was on which was just stock rooted with xposed and tweakbox, but the stock layout is driving me crazy.. Thinking of installing philz recovery after that and trying some sort roms out...

Really simple question but I didn't want to do it if it was going to softbrick my phone or something. :(

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tej XFire:
Hello everyone !

My M8 went mad today. It recognizes all headphones/earphones except the stock one that came with the device. The stock one works perfectly fine with all the devices except my M8. That sounds really strange, but it did happen.

I googled some forums and found that soundabout app on the play store could solve this issue by routing the audio to headphone jack. It worked.

I was tinkering with the settings of the app. I routed the audio to the earpiece(top speaker) only.

I'm somewhat skeptical that the top speaker now has less volume compared to the bottom one, when playing music/videos.

Does this mean that I have a partly damaged speaker ?

Also, can tinkering the settings damage the hardware(speakers) in any case ?

Thank you for reading.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kahun:
I think that the earpiece speaker is actually less powerful than the bottom speaker. I use SoundAbout myself as I have an issue with one of my friends old stereo's. The phone doesn't recognize that I have plugged in the aux cable but it only happens with that stereo. So I have to use the SoundAbout app to change the setting to Wired Headphones.

I'm not sure if tinkering setting can damage the speakers, but I have damaged the bottom speaker myself by flashing one of the first CM12 nightly's that came out. The speaker is quite easy to replace yourself and same goes for the earpiece.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 2PMintheAM:
I have had my Galaxy Note 4 for maybe four months now. I consider myself more knowledgeable with android devices, and just phones in general, than the average consumer.

My device is, and has always been.. laggy! It' hiccups when changing apps, when in some apps, and with other random toggles and processes. I don't think my problem is specifically with my Note 4, but just.. Android in general. It seems that every Android device I've owned (4 or 5 total) are all laggy, but when I get a new device, the lag is just slightly improved. The lag is certainly noticeable, and at times frustrating., especially when compared to my iPhone 6 plus (I switch between the two).

I love Android, more than I think I'll ever love iOS, but the buttery smooth transitions and animations on the iPhone make my Note 4 look like it's 5 years old! Even if you're extremely against Apple, you can't disagree with me.. am I wrong?!

I'm posting this thread here because I do have some questions to go along with my rambling d:

1. Would you consider your Note 4 somewhat laggy? Does it ever.. frustrate you?

2. Have you found a fix? Is the fix.. installing a custom ROM? Is there a tweak I haven't found? Installing a stock Lollipop ROM?

3. Anything else!?

I have a Sprint Galaxy Note 4 - Unrooted, and on Lollipop 5.0.1

I have before been Rooted with a custom Touchwiz ROM - Same problems d:

Is you device rooted, custom ROM, any tweaks?

What should I do about this? I've factory reset it several times, rooted, installed custom ROMs, etc, just about everything I can think of.

Scrolling through certain apps like the Gallery app and even Kik messenger, it's slow and laggy as I scroll up and down through pictures or messages.

Could my device be defective? I've never dropped it, it's in Pristine condition, not a scratch or imperfection! Would Samsung do anything about this if I contacted them? Would Sprint?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdm9mm:
I am running N910C with Android L 5.0.1 BOC3 TTT (Trinidad and Tobago) NOT rooted.

I don't buy Carrier branded phones because they install lots of bloatware which I think contributes to the lagginess you are complaining about.

The first thing I do after setting up the phone, is to disable apps and crap I don't use. Google+, Facebook, Whatsup, etc. I also disable services

I also disable "google voice detection" and "wake up command" on S-Voice.

Also try to disable your carrier's bloatware if you are not using them...

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willcor:
hi ,

Firstly....i agree overall ,with Salim.Keady post # 2 above .

i have been using Android since the days of windows phones ,we ( forum members ) use to " boot " Android up onto our sd cards........... !!I

I have come a long way with Android ..and so have others .

That said, at present i have Note4 ( N910F ) stock , rooted on Lollipop...... BOC3

(i used to have a branded Vodafone, but flashed over it to unbranded .)

I also have Note 2 ,Note 3 ,Note 8.0 Tab

All my devices is running " very" smoothly ,batteries usage on all of them is, very very good.etc no lag on any of them .Lucky ..no i don't think so ! (Even when they were all on branded ROMs ,they were smooth etc )

On my Note 4 the only hiccup i got with "lag " is the recent button and so have many others ...(that is all )

I have to say , i have also had the odd " hiccup (eg .battery drain or lag " ) when i was on Android v4.4.4 ,and then had Xposed module installed ,i had terrible lag ,but i "fixed/patched " it and had afterwards ,no problems at all .

Also ,when i uninstalled Xposed, it also broke a few apps ..afterwards ,(eg apps crashing /freezing etc )

But this i fixed with factory rest etc .

When i flashed lollipop... BOB4 ( no problems )

I then flashed... BOC3, no problems at first and after a few days picked up a terrible "wakelock "

I managed to id the correct "wakelock " and disable it ..

Ever scince, device is now better on Lollipop ,than Android v4.4.4 !

My experience is ,that to me, it is not necessary ,to flash custom Rom out of desperation/fustration ? ....unless you want to of course !

So my answer to your questions is

1 No , not at all !!!

It can be smooth and overall lag free (if you "tweak "it right using correct "tools " and searching for fixes( if you do have an issue )

2 I have noticed that a lot of custom Roms have their own problems/issues !!

So possibility is that you could start another "chapter" of issues with your device ?

3 One "tip " is ( maybe you know it ..?) but go to settings /developers options / and change Windows animation scale ,Transion animation scale and Animator duration scale .......(.mine is eg set on 0.5 x but you can turn it off also )

You will noticed your device is much "snappier " ...ok it won't help much with lag, but it will be more " snappier /faster .

If you don't believe that, then turn all 3 ( as listed above )up to say .....1x or 1.5x.and see it does make a difference !!

you will see your device is slower but smoother ??? but as said, your lag won't go away !

Above all said , possibility is that your phone could be defective ? but this you should "pick " up, if so (with your experience .)

Good luck

i think its just android in General.

i have a Ipad Air and no android phone can come close to how smooth everything is on the ipad.

i seriously doubted when i got my note 4, if i shouldnt have got a iphone 6...

but overall i like it and im used to android so i choosed the note 4.

if you really want a fast device you should try cyanogenmod 12, but you will lose cool features and the camera quality.

i know exactly what you mean with your story, but i think its a waste of time when you go back to the shop were you bought the phone.

i really dont think they can do something about it.

2. This is true, and some will aslo install their preferred apps, that I (I speak for myself only) consider bloatware because I don't use them.

Hello dear XDA forum members;

It's my first post, and i'm reading XDA-wiki and forums but i'm dont have any clue for resolving my issue that's why i'm posting here to explain my issue.

I have bought a second hand HTC Magician a week ago with invoice included in the box. It's really working fine for a WM beginner like me. I had a sound issue (which is already explained here) so my problem is my IEMI number.

I'm currently living in France, but when i will return back at Turkey, this phone will be totally dead. (i mean i will not be able to use it) so i have read that there is a tool called iWizard.

I firstly started to remove CID lock (if exists) with lokiwiz. Before executing lokiwiz iWizard was not able to read IEMI number, i ran lokiwiz and iWizard was able to communicate with my Magician.

But it reads some bizzare numbers.

What can i do ?

Thanks in advance.
