First of all, hello.

as this is my first post on this forum, dont give me a hard time i really need help with this phone.

I bought it recently, without battery

Than i bough battery two days later, orginal one but not new one. First two days it just kep showing invalid battery, please insert orginal battery and than it just stopped. I can power on the device and it works perfectly while screen is on, when i press the lock screen button after a couple of seconds it turns off and starts booting again. Same thing while on charger, but when connected to a pc its works perfectly. I just dont understand this. I took it apart, no water damage, didnt even fall once, i think its the cellphone but i am not sure as i dont have another battery to test it or money to get a new one they are expensive in croatia, about 40$. I would really like to get this phone working. tried diffrent usb cables, diffrent ac adapters, lock button didnt stuck even once, but the charging time is really bad too. all night got him to 89%, is it possible that maybe battery isnt giving him enough juice to turn the screen on again after a lock? i just dont know anymore tried everything and help would be great. Thanks in advance!

Hi guys, check my double battery mod. It was quite easy, tho you need to be very careful not to make any fire and so.

interesting. I have a note 2 battery 3100mah and another stock s4 batt. i was planning to combine them but had no idea where to start till i came across with your battery mod

what is your screen time with this battery mod?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] brian117:
Or you could you know, maybe just buy a brand name extended battery? Lol. Interesting mod though. That would kind of make me nervous though.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] timj261:
I was actually thinking about this the other day. Than I realized that my batteries are almost 2 years old already. Probably better to just replace them.

What did you use to cover the battery, I did the same sort of thing but did something with otterbox Defender.

I used a dremal tool to cut the holes. I am wondering if there might be a better way to cover it, since it is a little loose without the rubber cover.

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] droidblitz:
why not just buy zerolemon 7500mah ?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] -Ric-:
While i give you props for making it work, i don't think its useful on our device.. We have removeable batteries and there are extended batteries that work just fine and bypass all the fire/Explosion/damaging risks.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] LogicalJunkie549:
Congrats on actually pulling this off!

Although, are you planning on getting a different back cover though?, I honestly don't see that lasting very long....
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Spud37:
I looked at the album the only thing I am unclear on, and have a question about is what you did or used for making the batteries stay in place. It looks like just using leather that you forced formed around the batteries, and case. Is that what you did? I'm looking at better ways of keeping my battery in place, while your idea looks good, im just not sure what you did exactly or used. Or if the is actually a possibility of using something more lightweight, and smaller.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] skoey:
I used to have a double battery on an old blackberry, it was just to noticeable when sitting in my pocket. I can see the same thing happening here. Regardless awesome work, cool mod.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] t0pg3ar:
It's nice that it's possible, but with such a big back I don't think it's all that useful. Furthermore, how long does charging take? Twice as much or more?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] classic20:
I love the idea. I just have one question. Does it correctly show the battery percentage now?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] droidblitz:
Just buy zerolemon extended battery.

Instead of making your own DIY S4 bomb on your pocket.

Nais, mldc :D geras darbas tikrai
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] jimaro:
Haha love the idea. Congratz for pulling this off. Would have never thought of it. Initially I thought you somehow squeezed the two into the same one-size space - insane. I would personally go for an aftermarket build, but if you go creative enough I think you can still pull something interesting for a DIY proj. Some ideas:

1. put the battery in a thick plastic wrap (compact) and connect it to your phone via usb.

2. attach velcro on the battery and your phone and continue with step 1. you will have more or less what you have now, except it is modular - detachable.

n. hammer the two batteries into one so you have double the capacity - just dreaming... :fingers-crossed:

You pretty much end up into solutions that are already out there. Even so, I think you could end up with a bit more compact solution. Hackish in the same time.

Good luck

Why didn't you just used them as separate battery when one goes down swap with another?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] unclescary:
Nice

Interesting. A nice snowy day project.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] ImpytheBiscuit:
Still equally bulky, but I do think it's interesting that this type of thing can be done.

Aside from that, seeing all these fat batteries out on the market, you think that there would be ones that are beefy in juice, but elegant in size.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] PeteSco:
Looking at this after the iPhone bump cover is pretty hilarious. :D

Good job though!
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] xdm9mm:
Great idea. That hack has been done on a galaxy S3 when they were very new. The battery cover is the problem there, and you need to find a way to make qi charging work.

I will just buy the zero lemon 5200mah or other alternatives and find a way to adapt qi charging.

Hi all,

EDIT

Thanks to techdudester on the second page, getting rid of the malware is now even easier!

Just flash the image he found here with the following procedure and you're good to go!

Instruction:

1. Flash the new ROM.

a. Get the ROM here . (Use this ROM only if you have a Venstar V140D tablet!)

b. Follow the linked tutorial to install the flash software and flash the new ROM on your device with: Phoenix Suit.

Voila, ready!

Enjoy your malware free tablet!

can you provide another way to download the rom file ,i cant seem to get the registration process to work
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlueFlame:
I have dropped it here. Hope this helps :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1ce/:
I bought the same tablet for my daughter. She's (and so am I) suffering from a lot of annoying popups and ads.

Thanks for sharing your instructions here, very hard to find them!

Since I'm a complete newbie: one important question. When you flash the ROM, all of the apps (games) will be removed I guess?

Second question: can you put the stock rom on a different location? Both of the links (including Filedropper) don't contain any files...

Thanks!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlueFlame:
Yes, all applications will be removed. As soon as you configure the tablet again with the same gmail account, it will probably start installing the applications and games automatically, but in game progress will be lost for most (not online) games.

I am re-uploading the file. Will update this post with the link as soon as it finishes ;)

edit: upload finished, get it while its there ;) LINK
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1ce/:
Great! Thanks for the swift response. The file is about 307 MB. Is this correct? I'll start working on it, probably this weekend. I'll keep you posted.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlueFlame:
Yes, thats correct. Once unpacked it will be around 520 MB.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1ce/:
First step doesn't work for me: Phoenixsuit gives an error: 'Open Firmware failed'

with three possible reasons:

- firmware version is too old

- firmware format is broken

- firmware is used by other application.

Version used: 1.0.6

Firmware file: a33_599x_v11_1024x600_gc0308_2035_1015a.img

Any ideas?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlueFlame:
Is that the firmware that I provided?

If not, try to download it again.

If so, I think that your tablet has a newer firmware than this one. You could contact the seller of your tablet for the current (latest) firmware for this tablet.

If you get a newer firmware, please share :)

Hi Blueflame,

I've tried to re-flash, but at some point i'm getting the message at livesuit V1.11 that the image file is invalid.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlueFlame:
Not sure. Will upload it again this weekend just to be sure that it's not my uploaded image. (I will let you know once I've done that)

You can, on the other hand, contact the supplier (where you bought the tablet) and ask them for the latest version of the ROM. I would also be interested in that :)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] techdudester:
Te real FIX is In!

Ok, i have one of these allwinner, Venstar, "whatever", A33 D140v tablets. It had all the usual problems and more, because the first thing I tried, was to use the built in recovery to "restore to factory". This made things even worse, because after the recovery, I couldn't reach the Google authentication servers.

I am pro tech with 25 years in the trenches and I have to admit this thing really threw me for a loop, because I spent an entire day researching the solution, installing Android SDK, drivers, Phoenix Suit, Live Suit, etc. These were all very complicated "solutions" that took me exactly nowhere. I finally found the answer in a rather stupid Youtube video.

The REAL answer is actually very quick and easy compared to all these other recommended methods.

In the first place, model V140d image is only used for these infected tablets. The actual model is V11 and once you use the quick restore method I discovered, you will have a malware free V11 model. The whole secret to this method, is the fact that these units were designed to be quickly, automatically and completely restored in less that 5 minutes through the use of their built in micro SD slot.

Imagine that!

If you check your tablet that came new in the box as something other than V140d, the method I used will most probably not work for you.

Anyway, the quick method I discovered, can be seen on my own tech support site. To find it, Google: Just Call Techdude

Then click on the support link at the top of the page on my site and all will be revealed.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlueFlame:
Hi techdudester,

The combination "pro tech with 25 years in the trenches" and "very complicated "solutions"" sounds a bit strange. :p

But either way, a THANK YOU is in order!

The ROM you found works on my tablet (flashed yesterday) and so far so good. No popups and no unwanted application downloads!

I will adjust my initial post to incorporate this image.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] techdudester:
I am just happy to hear that I saved someone from the many hours of fruitless agony that I experienced. I am used to finding solutions that work.

Hi everyone,

I am having already a battery drain problem, I tried to put my phone on Airplane mode, and within an hour, I lost 5% while it was asleep!

I denied wake up and keep awake for google services, google app, and more apps.

My Apps are greenified.

My phone is not rooted. (and I cannot root it as long as I have warranty).

What could be the reason?

Besides that, I am having an excessive battery drain, especially when I am on 3g or LTE.. Even when I don't use the phone, and it is asleep, apps like chrome and others are using mobile radio active and draining my battery. Yesterday, I lost 11% in 30 minutes, when the phone was asleep in my bag!

I would appreciate any help for both of these problems.

Thank you!:)
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
This is the sixth thread you've created in regards to having battery troubles with your phone. And the answer is still going to be this: you can either ditch your warranty and unlock/root your phone so you have more control over it, or you can deal with the issues you're facing. Without root there really isn't a great deal you can do.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davebugyi:
No logs, no stats = no help. Besides using the OPO to without root is like driving a race car maximum at 50km/h

There are very detailed and easy to understand guides on how to unlock and root your phone, my signature has a link to my own. You've already been advised on multiple occasions that you need to root to gain more control so you can properly reign in the battery drain.

Hi,

In short: How can the owner (creator) of a forum thread transfer the ownership of the thread to another xda-dev member?

User "mandzo" used to maintain a port of Resurrection Remix ROM for Samsung Galaxy S3 Neo, and has stopped maintaining it. I am picking the maintenance and would like to continue posting new builds there. For that, I would like to get admin rights on that thread so I can update the title (for each new build) and the first post of the thread, which contains the most updated build.

I contacted mandzo, and he said he would gladly transfer the ownership to me but he didn't find a way to do it. Can you help?

BTW, this is not the first time this happens to me, until now I continued posting without modifying title & first post but then it has lower visibility to users.

[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nilanko:
I have Moto E XT1022 obviously. I have recently started facing an issue on my phone. I have 2 SIMS. First one is Vodafone and second one is Aircel. Vodafone is in SIM slot 1 and Aircel in SIM slot 2. After some time of usage, I lose the data option for Vodafone in the settings. There is only option to enable data for Aircel. Also, in the messaging application, the SIM1 is greyed out. I still have full signals on SIM1 and I can make and receive calls from SIM1 as well. But when I hang up, the dialer screen shows "No SIM or SIM error" at the top.

This problem occurs in ALL ROMs including custom and stock ROMs. Once data option for SIM1 is gone, I can still use 3rd party apps to enable/disable data on SIM1 but still there is no option for it in the settings. This problem can only be fixed by rebooting the phone but the option again vanishes after few minutes of usage even on a clean ROM where I have no app installed. What might be the problem?

Both my SIMS are on roaming and I have enabled data roaming on both SIMS.
