I noticed this on 3 different phones (two m7 and one max) that almost google apps are very choppy when scrolling. All were running stock kitkat with Sense. All od them were after hard reset. I noticed that its actually worst in latest version of google play and google play which runs worse than on Evo 3D. Is this common problem and can be solved in any way? This does destroy silky and smooth experience provided by Sense apps.

[Sony Xperia M2] HatchetEgg:
Hello People

I recently got the latest firmware for my D2303 (18.3.1.C.1.13) with an unlocked bootloader. However sometimes I can not switch off WIFI and displays my network asking for my network key of it says failed to connect to network. Although the only way I can regain the functionality of my WIFI is to reboot or toggle airplane mode. When I toggle airplane mode is successfully turns WIFI off and once I switch it on it remembers my network key and successfully connects.

Now what I have done to troubleshoot this problem?

1st reflased the firmware with flash tool

2nd wipe Data/Cache

Any help would be grateful!

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sneiper:
Hi

Just wondering if anyone else has this problem or if it's just my phone.

Ever since 5.0.1 upgrade my phone takes ages installing apps. 1-5mb apps that usually took like a couple seconds to install, now takes 20-25 seconds.

Bigger apps takes a lot longer to install. Seeing as updates often come in bulk, my phone can spend anywhere from 2-3 minutes to 15-16 minutes updating.

My phone is xx.401.xx . 100% stock.

Any tips on either how to fix this or if this is just something i have to live with until 5.1?

Thanks in advance.

(Did search for similar threads before posting. In case I overlooked any).

Noticed I posted in wrong forum. Can any moderator please help me put this in Q&A? :)
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -Vulture-:
Hm i think i can see a difference compared to KK too. Its not as terrible as you described it, but the installation process definately takes longer on my M8.

But i experienced the same on my old Z3 Compact after updating to Lollipop, so maybe the installation process has been changed?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vcek:
You forgot to mention that optimizing 300 stock apps takes around 30minutes instead of 5 minutes. The main reason for this lag is the art runtime vs the old dalvik.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sneiper:
Not entirely sure I understand what you're getting at here. I'm not talking about the initial boot up after installing 5.0.1. I'm talking about every app update from the market.

I.E. Every time facebook messenger or chrome or any other app realease an update. So this is the daily updating. Not the OTA "optimizing".

That might very well be, but that's the answer i'm looking for. Whether this is just something I have to live with, or if there's something that can be done about it.

It's agonizing waiting several minutes to use an app, when I realize there's something I need or want to play w/e.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seanie280672:
the only app I find that takes ages to update or install is faceache I mean facebook, whgy 'o why do they have to put out a new massive update everyday.

after your update to Lollipop, did you do a factory reset ? they recommand this due to the change over from dalvik to ART.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sneiper:
I know. The update frequency on a couple apps is ridicilous.

However. I didn't install the OTA update. I installed the update from zip before the phone prompted. I'm way to impatient to wait for an OTA when I know I can install :D

Anyhow.. I guess I could try a Hard Reset. What is the best way to make sure my phone is identical after the update? I hate relying on google backup. As more often than not, I find it doesn't install all apps I had pre reset etc. Usually end up installing a ton of apps I had uninstalled, and doesn't install a lot of apps I would've wanted.

To answer your question properly; I did not do a factory reset after the install. As I did it before I even installed the update. Dunno if that makes any difference.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seanie280672:
if you factory reset and then installed the RUU then id guess its the same as a full fresh install, the above recomendation only really applies to people who updated with the OTA.

Hi All,

I seem to be having issues whereby whatsapp doesn't notify for new messages every now and then?

I have checked all settings, (on stamina mode and off/normal) checking its a priority app etc etc. I cannot for the life of me see anything else that could cause the app not to display new messages (Again its not always but frequent).

Has anyone else experienced this? I usually go into the app and then messages would display being delayed.

Thanks!

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Gorgtech:
Here is a Screenshot after having performed the Antutu Stability Test:

The back of the device feels warm but not hot at all and also the screen has a mild temperature too.

I´ve overclocked the CPU @ 2Ghz and the GPU @ 477 Mhz :P
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] pk-sanja:
[MENTION=4827892]Gorgtech[/MENTION] thank you for your great tutorial! I just did it myself and indeed the screen temperature in games and benchsmarks feels alot cooler :). I managed to do some camera shots. I will upload the next day if someone is interrest.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Gorgtech:
You´re welcome, I´m glad you could improve your device too :o

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Gorgtech:
Yes, it´s ok ;) The size of the metal has to be big enough to partially cover the SoC and to connect it with the lid ;) The piece I used is similar in size, slightly smaller than the SoC itself :o
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] pk-sanja:
[MENTION=4827892]Gorgtech[/MENTION] I see thank you for your help :). I attach an antutu stabilty test with stock 5.1.1, is the temperature graph alright? I always use glitch kernel with OC so i have wait for his update.

View attachment 3291093
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Gorgtech:
The values are great, mine are worse because I´ve overclocked the CPU and GPU :D But still, the temps are quite low for such a device now ;)

I use ElementalX without any undervolting. I use the Stock 5.1.1 Kernel at the moment too :P
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Gorgtech:
I think I´m crazy :D I opened the device again and made some extra coolers for the RAM ( 4x ) and 1 for the NAND storage ( Uh Oh, risky risky :D ).

This time I made some pictures but the effort in order to add the extra cooling to the other components requires some extra work and patience.

Now all I need to do is to perform some tests and to check if the temps can improve further but I guess there is barely anything left to Mod in this device.

I can post the pictures if there is any demand for them :D
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] pk-sanja:
[MENTION=4827892]Gorgtech[/MENTION] Nice, please post the pictures you made :).
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Gorgtech:
OP updated, have fun :D
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] pk-sanja:
Did you manage to get the tablet cooler with advance mode :)?
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Gorgtech:
I´m not sure if the extra effort is really worth it because the difference might be 1-3° at best in total. But on the other hand, cooler RAM and NAND might live a longer life :)

The only thing I noticed is that the device feels in total a lot better and even these "micro stutters" other guys have noticed when trying to scroll through huge pages, seem to have vanished or are at least barely noticeable ?

Maybe this is Placebo but in total it feels like I have a faster device since at least the throttling intervals have improved :o
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] pk-sanja:
Sounds good! I will be cover the rams too tonight. I remember the day back when i do your mod i thought why not cover the rams too, like a gpu xD.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Gorgtech:
Did anyone else perform the MODs or are you guys too lazy to stop playing Angry Birds for a few minutes ? Or did you perform these Mods and bricked your device ?

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Gorgtech:
I checked other Stress tests too and I cannot convince my device again to burn my fingers :D I guess I can live with that.

It seems that we are only 2 to have modified the cooling of this tablet ? :D
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] quickdraw86:
You're going to find the number of adventurous individuals to be few, after all "insane hard" is part of your thread title.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Gorgtech:
The "insane Hard Mod" part has a different meaning though ;) You need to be insane in order to perform it because there is a high risk of damaging something if you´re not used to handle electronic components the right way ;) If on the other hand you follow the instructions, at least you won´t decrease the device performance and the extra cooling also helps to prolong the life of the SoC, RAM and NAND storage.

But I guess that the Nexus 7 ( 2013 ) forums are dead anyway since this device is quite old now and many guys may have moved on to other devices with better specs by now :confused:
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] quickdraw86:
True. A tab isn't something most people would upgrade every year, at least not IMO. The development sections for this device are fairly active, but general never was. Truth is, I would upgrade too, but would only consider the nvidia shield, nexus 9 (not my top choice at all, minimal upgrade, small user base) or Microsoft surface 3... But don't need a newer tab per se.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Gorgtech:
I´m happy with this device too though it´s slower in comparison to my Nexus 5 when eg. browsing the web. I would like a similar 7" Tab with a higher performance one day but I think I can wait.

I use my tab a lot but I´d rather prefer a better phone. Some guys use even older ( and slower ) devices like eg. a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 and are happy too.

Btw, my device still performs very well, the temperature remained stable :cowboy:
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Everflow:
Hey, i'm tempted to try this mod, but if i'm not mistaken the antutu screenshots you guys posted display the battery temperature and not Cpu temp.

So, i can't tell if it is worth going through the trouble of doing the mod, even though ocing the cpu @2 ghz and being stable might be a good indicator of the mod's cooling capabilities.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] pk-sanja:
[MENTION=5950895]Everflow[/MENTION] yes this is correct. The Graph below indicates the battery Temperatur and the button graph show how well the soc operates under stress, linear would be optimum. I've applied the mod days after Gorgtech release it. Trust me it's working well. No more throttling and better soc tepmeratur under stress. My Antutu stability graph is now near linear ;).

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Everflow:
For comparison here is an antutu run on my not_h/w_modded nexus 7, with elementalx, max cpu clock: 1620 mHz undervolted @ 850 mv.

I observed cpu temperatures through the notification option of the elementalx app.

Max temperature was 73, while avg temp was 62.5.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] pk-sanja:
[MENTION=5950895]Everflow[/MENTION] this is exactly what i mean, your CPU perfomance goes down a little bit during this test. Puh 73 Celsius ( i believe you'rent meaning Fahrenheit :D) is high, mine barely reaches 55°

Gesendet von meinem Nexus 5 mit Tapatalk
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Everflow:
Well yours has improved cooling with the mod, mine doesn't so yes 73 Celsius is what i see indeed on heavy tasks.

I think i will go with the thermal pad option, since it's easier to find commercially, i don't have the tools to cut copper or aluminum pieces to the dimensions needed for the mod. I hope thermal pads do just as well at cooling the soc.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] pk-sanja:
Thermal pad is also very good for this mod. Good luck :).
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Seth1334:
Did the same mod on my Nexus 7, using a piece of scrap brass sheet (0.3mm thick) and some thermal paste.

After I refitted the shield lid, I removed it again to confirm the paste had contacted with the lid - all good.

Reassembled and there is definitely a decrease in running temp from power-on.

I have tried overclocking and it works fine to about 2GHz.

In the end, I have underclocked my Nexus as I am not playing games and everything runs very smooth, even at lower speeds (1.2GHz).

One thing to note is that when I set the minimum clock to 81 Mhz, the tablet failed to catch my attempts at unlocking the screen (via pattern unlock), so I upped it to 200MHz and it's fine.

One thing to remember is that this mod only really increases the mass of your heatsink, so the CPU will eventually get as hot as before (just takes longer). You do get more surface area to dissipate heat (the shielding boxes on the CPU and the copper foil) but it does not radiate far, given the plastic housing is right next to it (OK, and the case will absorb a small amount).
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] sethasaurus:
Quick update:

I still use my Nexus 7 (2013) regularly and it has never missed a beat. I don't often stress the CPU as I am mostly browsing or using it for email or telnet to my TV box, so it doesn't really heat up. I've got it set for min of 384 MHz and max of 1512 MHz.

I also have been in the habit of using it until it drops to around 35% of battery life before I put it back on charge, and the battery life is still very good.

The nice hi-res screen is sharp and clear and I haven't found myself wanting to upgrade. Also it fits in a jacket/suit pocket just fine!

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] ManoharMaddineni:
I know this is a super old thread, but would it help if I could drill small vent holes in the back of the case (the plastic housing)? like super fine holes right over where the cooling needs. a nice "rectangle" of holes lol...

I'm not super attached to the back panel, and I have another spare one lying around anyway.

IMG 1: Alignment check

IMG 2 & 3: My attempt at adding more thermal mass (didn't have any copper sheets, had to improvise with strips of copper from old electrical sockets and a couple of strips of bronze)

IMG 4: Passive hole for heat exhaust

IMG 5: Friction fit Mounting holes for laptop fan (with the lid removed, the fan body has posts which can be reused to friction fit with the back case of tab)

IMG 6: Low RPM 5V laptop fan (powered via USB or OTG)

Dec 20/2022: I only did the "extra thermal mass" hack, didn't drill the holes or add the laptop fan. However, the fan is ready to implement, and just have to test out whether it is even worth it to drill holes and compromise the internals to the extra dust and humidity. I will try to do some tests with and without the back panel attached as well as the fan attached to see if it even helps to have active cooling.

My brother is an owner of a Stock Sony Xperia Ultra Z and since installing the 5.0.2 OTA update he can no longer make or recieve calls, and instead hears strange noises, like a needle scratching across a record, with beeps and pops like R2D2 speaking. Alarms and notification noises are similarly weird. Also massive battery drain.

Although it's intermittent, there's no pattern, and it has really scuppered his day as he relies on his phone for business and now can't make or take calls and is understandably annoyed considering this is a standard update.

Has anyone else experienced problems like this?

Hello,

I had a first look at the Logcat of my Asus Fonepad (Atom SOC with Android 4.4.2) and found that there are numerous (once a second) warnings in the form:

W/Sensors ( 730) Cannot open file: /data/COMPS.conf -1

W/Sensors ( 730) Cannot open file: /data/GYRO.conf -1

I would like to stop these warnings.

I fount at least ACCEL.conf and COMPS.conf in the /data/sensors subdir, the content look to be Chinese.

I tried to copy ACCEL.conf and COMPS.conf to the /data dir, but now I get the following error:

E/Sensors ( 730) Cannot initialize inotify!

Is W/Sensors an Android system routine or a problem with an app?

What's the purpose of these .conf files and what is the usual content?

I've just managed to unlock (Thanks to buzz-lightyear!) my lovely uni from T-Mobile to be able to use my tesco simcard (until the vodaphone ones come through) I seem to be able to make/receive calls as I should be.

However, I got a message from tesco shortly after making my first call which said 'Your phone does not appear to be able to accept automatic settings, please call our care team on blah blah blah to resolve the problem'.

Did that and while the guy I spoke to had never heard of the handset, he provided me with a bunch of settings which I somehow need to stick into the system. They are as follows:

My question is this: Where and how do I get these settings into this phone. Is the gateway similar to the WINS? I'm not sure what I need to do here, I would dearly appreciate anyones help on this.

Also, I want to donate a few quid to buzz and here, but when I try to do it on buzz's site, the paypal site comes up in German. Any ideas there please?

Thanks very much.
