What's wrong with Google now launcher I think it's a better alternative to the stock launcher.
[ZenFone 2 General] hichaam:
I'm using Action Launcher, it has doubletap2sleep in all the screen, but I don't know wether it enhances battery life or not.
[ZenFone 2 General] xgneilx:
great.
[ZenFone 2 General] gontie:
Indeed, Nova is nearly stopping battery drain, i feel the difference. I can now browse on the internet and notice the number of the battery is not getting so fast lower.

There is clearly an issue in the stock launcher.
[ZenFone 2 General] goolac:
double tap to sleep works from the lockscreen but once in Nova, double tapping the screen does nothing and there is no sleep setting in the gesture settings...

THIS SEEMS TO BE A FIX FOUND ON REDDIT

Grab this app

Open Nova settings

Gestures and Buttons

Double tap

Apps -> Screen Off
[ZenFone 2 General] Capataz:
Okay I have tried Nova Launcher for a week or so now, and I think I might be staying.

I initially just wanted to test it for the claim of extra battery life, but now that I'm using it, it's just way better than the stock launcher.

As for the claim to better battery life, I havent noticed any difference. Yet, i hope.
[ZenFone 2 General] mapre64:
It works fine - but ONLY by tapping the status bar!

[ZenFone 2 General] Kambz1994:
Hmm,tried to install nova instead asus lanucher and still same expirience...
[ZenFone 2 General] goolac:
Yep that does work. I double tap the time in the upper right corner and that works fine with me. Bonus is I do not have to install another app.
[ZenFone 2 General] harpreet.s:
Double tap gesture is captured by Nova launcher, for screen off you will need separate app.
[ZenFone 2 General] goolac:
That is what I thought. Turns out the double tap on the notification bar is handled by the phone settings.
[ZenFone 2 General] Tiongkia:
i tested on rom v22 for 3 days and didn't notice any difference in battery life. i believe this is subjective.
[ZenFone 2 General] pato2015:
Me too i havent notice any difference...but now after new update i got only 2% drain from 11pm to 6am...i use asus launcher..cm lock off...used better wifi on off....and lux pro ....palaBre...google plus ....torch...and solid explorer are installed. But....i disabled flashlite, galary...weather..and. file manager..radio....and music all asus....... :)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] treebeard9000:
Hi all. I currently have a T-Mobile s6 which is stuck in ultra powersaving mode. It will not recognize any of my four registered fingerprints, will not toggle the keyboard for the backup password (perhaps because swiftkey is set as default input), and rebooting/ fully recharging/ fully discharging does nothing. It is rooted on 5.0.2 with KNOX untripped. Does anyone know of a way to exit UPSM (other than going the ODIN route, which would wipe everything)?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] V0latyle:
Ultra Power Saving uses the Samsung keyboard and does not use any other 3rd party apps. If you can't use the backup password to log in, then you have a couple options: if you don't want to lose any data, you could either attempt a dirty Odin flash without wiping and hope that will overwrite the security settings...or you can flash a custom recovery (tripping Knox) to dirty flash a ROM that way (wipe /system).

Otherwise, if you don't want to trip Knox, your only other option is a clean Odin.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] Khaijb:
This happened to me. I solved it by using an OTG cable to attach a keyboard and enter my password that way.

Hope this helps in time..

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matcunni:
Hey guy's, I'm having a problem whith my s3 which's driving me crazy.

I was following this tutorial: http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3/help/solved-pit-bricked-dead-problem-gt-t2535367

The steps were these:

1. Put your phone on download mode

2.open odin and select option *auto reboot*re-partition*f.reset time *Nand erase all

3.select **GT-I9300.PIT** as pit file(DO NOT SELECT ANY OTHER ONE)

4. click start(after finishing task phone will reboot )

5.now download CF-Root for SGS3 v6.4 from here-------> http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1695238

6. again put phone in download mode and root your phone with CF-Root (file you downloaded)

I'm stuck in step 6. The phone restarts, automatically the script which installs SuperSU starts running

It mounts /system and rootfs

It removes old files

It creates space (Sometimes it just restarts at this point, and when it boots, the script start again up to this point)

Sometimes it get past the creating space, and reaches the "Unmounting /system", but it hangs there for a while, and then the phone restarts again , and the script start running again and again and again..

I can enter download mode, but can't enter in recovery mode cause when I try it, the scripts starts and reboots my phone to start again..

Any ideas??

Since I bought my gs6 I have noticed the soc temp heat up very quickly and couse a massive throttling of the gpu above all ...so that performances go down of 50% expecially when running antutu ...is that normal or should i send back my phone to warranty
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hajyihia:
every CPU throttles, the S810 throttles even more, they have to, and don't run benchmarks, they won't do you any good, if in day to day usage the phone heats up it's normal, my S6 do heat up but i never noticed throttling, i never noticed lag when it becomes hot.....try to use your phone normally without ****ty benchmarks...
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shajk-00:
Thanks for your answer

Yes I know benchmarks are quite worthless ..but it's not just about that..i notice this even while gaming ,browsing and even doing light stuff ..its however pretty much annoying
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hajyihia:
i don't play games that much, i only play couple of games like boom beach, i don't know if this game considered heavy or light, but if i play it for about half an hour the phone heats up a bit but it doesn't lag at all....in light usage usually it doesn't heat up, but even if it heats up i never notice lag, the phone stutters in some places but no lag.....
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxLordxX:
Hi,

Please install the app called CPU-Z to check your device temperature. Also keep in mind that depending on where you live, it's easier to heat up than on other regions, as the external temperature does make a difference.

To throttle it needs to get very hot. Check if you have Mobile Data and Location turned on when not needed, and specially Mobile data when you're out of range, they consume lots of power and heats the device up considerably. Also, Wifi if not connected will keep searching for somewhere to connect and consequently will use your device power and heat up.

Another thing to keep an eye on is background apps and the external temperature as mentioned before. On S4 I faced a serious battery drain and overheat problem due to background apps not letting it sleep.

All the best,

~Lord
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shajk-00:
Already have cpu z on it

The temps get up to 80 degrees celsius when under really heavy usage ..of course this temp refers to cpu not to battery that stays always around 33 and 37 degrees

P.s i dont notice lag either. .even when performance decrease its good enough..i was only qondering wether it is normal or not
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roydok:
You may have a lemon S6. Return your S6 to Samsung for warranty replacement.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxLordxX:
Hi,

80 degrees Celsius seems a bit high to me, like mentioned I'd check with Samsung if this device has a defective thermal dissipation.

All the best,

~Lord
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shajk-00:
yep maybe i'll do

if only someone could send a screen (of cpuz ) showing their temps under usage i' d be able to compare these to mine and see what to do
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxLordxX:
Hi,

Here's a screenshot of my device idle:

http://i.imgur.com/rS0VHnR.jpg

And here's one of my device after running AnTuTu benchmark:

http://i.imgur.com/hbNIngV.jpg

I noticed that during the benchmark it got to the 80 degrees range, but it lasted a few seconds, if your device get to 80 degrees and stay at it, maybe it isn't dissipating hear correctly.

All the best,

~Lord
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shajk-00:
OK then there must be a problem with my device....I actually donno what other things could couse this abnormal heat but a production defeat....maybe the weather? ? I live in italy and here is 34 degrees..but i doubt it

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hajyihia:
80 sounds crazy not a bit high
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lummujaj:
80 its high but device can reach that temp sometimes. Example if you play and fast charge same time it can get that temp. And not to forget outside real temp. Here its so hot... up to 40degrees
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultraquantum:
Hi All,

80 degrees is not as extremely as you might think. People tend to think its too crazy or high because they never would have seen it and the most times they check their cpu temps on CPU-Z it will be hovering around 40-50 degrees. The best way to check your temps in S6 is to open CPU-Z/AIDA64, have it minimised in a smaller window and drag it to the very corner of one side, while this is running, open a game like dead trigger/skyforce and notice the temps. Also, do the same while performing an antutu test. Yes, the scores will be greatly reduced and the temps will be a tiny bit higher because of this smaller window running simultaneously, but you can compare your temps pretty easily. Also, try to be present in a ambient temp of 26 degrees rather than upwards of 30 for a fair comparison with fellow users. According to me, 80 comes up at times but it lasts only for seconds (S6 starts throttling exactly at 80 and beyond that the core clocks gets aggressive reductions) but it will never be constand even while running a game. Mine CPU idles @35 degrees with ambient temp being 26-30.

My temps : (All temps in Celsius)

Ambient temperature 26 - 30 degrees :

Battery temp : 25-30 degrees

Idle : 32-35 degrees

Slight tasks (Whatsapp, checking notifications) : 37-39 degrees

Multiple applications : 38-43 degrees

Game - hungry shark evolution : 47-52 degrees

Game - Dead Trigger : 55-62 degrees.

Ambient temperature 31-36 degrees :

Battery temp : 33-37 degrees

Idle : 41-44 degrees

Slight tasks (Whatsapp, checking notifications) : 46-50 degrees

Multiple applications : 47-55 degrees

Game - hungry shark evolution : 55 degrees

Game - Dead Trigger : 65-70 degrees.

Also i've noticed that the CPU temps increase for a flash second to 65 above while installing multiple apps from playstore. Try updating/installing multiple apps from playstore, have the CPU-Z open, and exactly while the app finishes downloading and starts installing, there will be sudden spikes in temperatire depending on your ambient conditions. But, never reaches high temps constantly.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shajk-00:
all right, thank you all guys for your replies. So..i sent my phone back to samsung and got a new one 2 days ago,i can definitely confirm that the phone heats up exactly like the previous one , maybe just slightly less(i mean 3 degrees..nothing craze).

For anyone suffering of this ''issue", notice that temps may drastically change depending on wheater temperature ,humidity, etc. if weather is at 40 degrees ur phone wont surely get to a lower temp.

BTW it s clear that this phone heats up and throttles ,some may notice that others not, so unless you receive overheating warnings or have other serious stuffs on ur device ,do not exchange it for a new one because certainly it ll be quite the same as the previous one. Oh it 's quite clear as well that folks claiming their device doesn't exceed 60 degrees under heavy usage either are liers or super lucky ones with uber super powerful units...think its more probably the first option.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] BlackRaven:
I am so annoyed with myself.

I've had my Exec now for just over a year. But to be honest, there has been nothing else that takes my fancy.

Anyway, over the weekend whilst camping I put my mobile down in the back of the car. I was then movin stuff around, and accidently put a gas bottle on top of the screen. I now can't see anything when I switch it on, and can see a mark at the top when switched off.

To be honest, the screen was feeling a little loose anyway. Is it possible to just unscrew the top and screw on a new screen, or can anybody do screen repairs?

Or is there something similar that might be worth getting in replacement? New XDA for example or maybe Ipaq?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] hebigakure:
unscrew the top and screw on a new screen.in indonesia it will cost u 2.300.000 rupiahs.or u can do it at srvice centre.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] BlackRaven:
Well, I found a company who have replaced the screen. But the display rolls if the case is shut so has to be left sticking up. They say that the "top board" is damaged and the pressure causes the problem, but they say they are struggling to source a replacement board.

Replacement screen = £100

Replacement board = ????

Starting to sound like better buying a 2nd hand one from eBay!

After reading your post in a forum based on the installation of an IMate JasJar screen, I see you concluded your post by saying the job of replacing the screen was "easy". How much time did it take to make this repair.

Thanks,

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] diegodargo:
You can pick up a replacement screen/touchscreen for between £50 and £70 on eBay. Replacing is a straightforward affair. Just follow the instructions in the service manual (you'll find it in the forums if you do a search) and should take approx 20 minutes.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] jcasplinter:
Just for your comparison:

My screen was broken. The qtek service in the Netherlands asked 250 euros..

I was planning to go to China (Shanghai) anyways, so I waited and had a new screen + repair for 120 euros... I'm happy!

Hey All,

I have an HTC One M7 which is unlocked. It's an AT&T phone running on T-Mobile. Current OS is Android 4.1.2. I am unable to upgrade it to Lollipop 5.1.1. I got the ROM from HTC but it won't install. Does any body have any thoughts how to upgrade it to Lollipop 5.1.1

Thanks...
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
AT&T phones must unfortunately be connected to the at&t network to receive ota update. Since you are not on the at&t network, I would recommend to convert your phone to another version that doesn't requires any specific carrier to receive update like the Developer edition.

To convert your phone to another version, you'll need to achieve S-OFF so you can change your CID number so you can flash another version RUU.

[Verizon HTC One (M9)] Balian67:
Hello. I am having trouble downloading MX Player or MX Player Pro from the Play Store.

I get error -504. Now I have bought the pro version but I still get the error. I have used it for years. I have looked up error -504 and this is what I have done.

I pirated MX Player Pro (even though I own it in the playstore). It either fails to install, or fails to run (force close).

I cleared data/cache on the Play Store App, and Google Play Services (or whatever it is called. I followed the how to fix post with all the play store errors post on xda).

and I removed my gmail accounts, then rebooted, relogged into my main one (the acct that owns MX Player Pro), tried installing. Fail.

So I wiped my phone re-flashed adren 2.0 and logged in. Still fails to download from playstore or my /downloaded MX Player (from their site). Failure

I Contacted MX Player Pro's dev and he said its a playstore issue. Yet somehow it won't work.

I just wiped again and I installed CM12.1 Candyrom. I am going to try using CM to see if it will install.

I have an idea of what happened. I think I might have been in the middle of installing MX Player Pro when I rebooted and now somehow it won't install to my account. So while I am using CM12.1 I will log into my secondary account and install the non pro version

After I flashed CM12.1 Candyrom (VZW beta), I logged into my main account and installed MX Player Pro just fine. Loaded Just Fine, and played a video just fine. Something else I noticed when using CM 12.1 was that when I told it to power off, it powered off correctly (instead of the black screen with blue HTC screen bug).

Anyone have ideas about why it is this way? I am about to restore my backup and try installing it again!
