[Samsung Gear S] alesa1988:
Hey all,

I've been given a Gear S by my boyfriend for my birthday and loving it so far... Probably not so much the battery life.

I went to Orange (My net provider) and asked about getting a 2nd SIM on my line for it and was discouraged to do so due to the monthly expenses of the service and the fact I realy always carry my phone on me, using bluetooth isn't an issue.

But... I have a couple of old PAYG SIMs at home and was wondering if using those would lower battery life... Also, seeing as they have a different number to my phone, would that give me issues?

Thanks!!
[Samsung Gear S] djc-wi:
If you haven't done so already, put the pedometer in "pause". By default it's on and really eats up the battery.
[Samsung Gear S] nktwister:
When your watch is connected via Bluetooth to your phone, the default setting is to turn off the carrier service on watch.. this will save battery.. if you keep carrier service always on then battery drains a little more than usual.. so it depends on if you will use carrier service on watch to leave phone at home and connect remotely..

Thank you very much, a lot clearer now :)

[Nexus 5 Accessories] dr_Fell_xda:
Hello.

I bought an used Nexus 5 recently, but it has extremely long charging time (5 hours) with included charger (LG MCS-02ED with 850mA power output). The charger seem to be dying, since it gives c.a. half of the output of my second Motorola 850mA charger, that charges the phone in c.a. 2,5 hour. I also guess that MCS-02ED is not the charger that is originally shipped with Nexus 5, right?

So I am looking for a replacement and I found the mcs-04er on aliexpress for US $6.80 (can't post link as a new user, but there are only two auctions there and only one with that price, from edre international trade co . , ltd :) ).

Any chances that it is really genuine and won't fry my phone? I prefer to buy LG branded charger, in case of warranty repair.

Regards

Michael
[Nexus 5 Accessories] peachpuff:
Ask yourself... is anything from china genuine?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] kaushikd:
Why don't you buy any of the those genuine micro usb chargers. You can try searching for Blackberry Folding Blade charger as well. Go for it in case you're able to find one.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] peachpuff:
Or just get this one http://www.androidpolice.com/2015/0...er-for-just-7-99-8-off-with-coupon-on-amazon/
[Nexus 5 Accessories] dr_Fell_xda:
Hey !

Thanks for answers.

peachpuff, I generally agree, although considering that genuine chargers are sold with similar prices in USA I hoped that this charger could be genuine for almost 7 USD. I am from Poland (didn't mention it, sorry), so shipping cost from from USA are too high (for a charger), that's why I was searching aliexpress (low or no postage cost).

I am looking for LG chargers, because in case of warranty repair I am affraid, I will have problem, if I don't return phone with original LG charger.

Lg g4 1.8a charger (mcs-04ed) teardown

I want make new thread but I was not able because my posts is less than ten

my charger cable is not good (OEM) and my phone(G4) charge with this slowly and i found a shot length power bank cable that can charge my phone from0-100% only in 98 min(01:38).

after 30 min the charger and cable ( usb A side) heat and after several time it made a bad smell(overheated PCB smell) and I decide to open charger.

the problem was from output schottky diode and it was warmed and burnt pcb(fiber glass)

but the charger had not any problem so I add some flux and re solder this part and I wash PCB with acetone

but unfortunately when I assembled charger for test it was a little wet and it exploded .

two sr4,sr5 resistor and fusible resistor and mosfet are damaged

and also i cant attach image
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Sady94:
Mob came with charger made in china by dogee or dongdee not sure about model, my suggestion don't go for lg chargers they are mostly cheap copies rather you should buy form some quality brand like remax which offers great quality in comparatively less price

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mr_yellow:
Hi all,

I'm trying to figure out what affect page pool sizes have on program memory. I understand that the larger the pagepool, the smaller the program ram. I understand, the larger the page pool, the "faster" the ROM operates since the pagepool is used as a pseudo-ram/cache for the OS.

However, Does anything else besides the Windows OS use the page pool memory? Can third party applications use the page pool?

Also, Because I have the HTC prophet which is known to be very limited in available RAM, I'm curious why sometimes I can't load third party input methods like calligrapher or tengo even when I have 15-20 megs of available program ram. Does the pagepool have some affect on this? This also seems linked to the today plugins since if I disable the today plugins, i can sometimes load calligrapher. Is the available ram split up between SIP (soft input panel) and today plugins vs. regular third party applications?

Thanks,
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] :
hheh 15-20 mb free ram?

man, change ROM...

btw, i never seen program, that cant be launched with 4 mb pp..

more = waste.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mr_yellow:
so a 4mb pp is best for freeing up ram for apps like calligrapher and today plugins... Does anyone know first hand whether a rom with only 4mb pp will be unbearably slow for things like loading /windows directory in file explorer?

Thanks,
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] neptune:
I just switched to a 4MB PP on my Herald from a 12MB one. So far I am very happy. The amount of time is took to access the Windows folder was cut by more than 5sec. It only takes 3seconds max to load it up now.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] :
thanks for http://www.roguegovernment.com/, and your avatar, God bless Canada.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mr_yellow:
Wait, What??

Reducing the pagepool will *increase* performance? not decrease it?

Isn't there a trade off at some point? I thought reducing the pp will decrease performance but increase program ram?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] neptune:
Well Canada aint such a saint either but I'll take it over the US anyday. Did you know that some of the worst scientific tests from Project MKUltra were carried out in Canada under order from the American Military.These two governments go hand in hand. All the unwilling Canadian participants were drugged with LSD, run through ElectroSchock, and a whole load of sad experiments. I could go on all day about Government corruption, but when it comes down to it I'm all against it; and the only way to win a "war" against the government is by spreading the word of its wrong doings. SO whoever reads this thread pass this website along.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] peter petrelli:
It depends on your definition of peformance. Reducing page pool will speed up a few things on your device, it may also slow down a few things. However if you benchmark your device on sktools or similar then you will notice that greater page pool gives marginly better results.

Given that it is very simple to alter page pool I suggest that those wondering about the effects of page pool trial different page pool values and then note the subtle differences until they find a compromise.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] fallenczar:
wm5 had problems with multiple SIPs which has been sorted out in WM6,

if you are still on wm5 upgrade to wm6...if you have wm6 and still have this problem then try searching for PQIIz and if possible change your rom
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mr_yellow:
Hi All,

Thanks for all the new replies. It really helps!

Concerning wm5 vs wm6: I am running a wm6 rom, in fact it's a rom built on the latest available build of wm6 so as far as I know, it's "up to date". But even with running wm6, I still have problems loading third party SIPs. Right after a reset, it's fine. But after a few hours or days of uptime, they'll fail to load. Even things like HTC phone pad (which i had to install seperately) won't load up.

Also, I can't find anything about PQIIz. As far as I can tell from the small references here and there, it's a utility that manages freeing memory and closing apps. What's the full name of this app?

Going back to the pagepool discussion: I wish I could experiement with the pagepool size but I'm no rom cook.. =( One day I'll get there.

Sigh.. back to flashing i guess. =/

you do not need to cook to change.. just hexedit nbf..

btw, freeing mem app - oxios memory module hibernate.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] cavyman:
Someone (somewhere in one of these forums) mentioned that Microsoft's recommended "optimal" pagepool size was 4.5MB. I just assumed there had to be something wrong with that since my Dell Axim's OEM roms were set to 12MB pagepools. But perhaps there is some basis for a 4.5MB pagepool. I guess I will try it one of these days and see--unless someone else has already tried it on an Axim (X50v) and can give me an idea of performance results.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Rudegar:
i would guess that ms dont have an optimal general pagepool

as it would depend on the transfer speed of the storage

compared to the speed of the ram
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] cavyman:
So the best thing still is just to try several different pagepool sizes and pick the one that seems to have the most even balance of speed between various tasks/programs?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mr_yellow:
Does the process for changing the page pool size depend on the device? I found these instructions for changing pagepool for wizard roms:

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=ChangingPagePoolofWizardWM6Roms

Are there any other factors I need to take into account before manually modifying a custom rom I did not build?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mr_yellow:
quick bump...

I'm still confused about the affects of pagepool and speed of OS and amount of program ram...

So my rom has 8mb pp. loading /windows takes only 4 seconds. I also get problems loading calligrapher, phonepad, and today plugins. I've had other roms with i think 12mb pp. loadinig /windows takes like 8-10 seconds with that and I don't recall any problems with loading 3rd party input method. I don't think i've ever tried a 4mb pp rom.

So from what I've experienced.

12mb pp:

slower OS (loading /windows is slow)

can load more input methods and today plugins

less program ram???

8mb pp:

faster OS (loading /windows is fast)

can NOT load more input methods and today plugins

more program ram?

4mb pp:

faster OS (loading /windows is ???)???

can NOT load more input methods and today plugins???

most program ram???
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] timn2087:
I have set the pagepool on my Diamond to 0Mb - very fast for all tasks. I used the tool in this thread:

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DaVince:
The Page Pool

Applications use RAM in two ways. There is code that runs, and there is data that is created while it is running. On a NOR device, the code can run directly from the ROM and not be loaded into RAM first. This process is called XIP (eXecute In Place). NAND devices can't XIP, so their code is loaded into RAM and executed from there. If you don't have a Page Pool, this code is loaded into normal RAM. The Page Pool is a mechanism to limit how much code is loaded into normal RAM. With a Page Pool, we can unload code that hasn't been used in a while and reload it later if we need to. We can't do that without a Page Pool.

On a typical NAND-based WM5 device, the Page Pool is 4.5M.

Taken from here.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mrprism133:
i seen, a couple of roms that had a pagepool editor in the zip file
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] zephxiii:
Well from my experience, ROMS with smaller pagepools (like 4-5) were laggy. I also found that with dynamic pagepools. I usually set mine to around 7-8.5 and the performance is great.

What I mean about laggy, is like when switching around between apps, or just moving around in the WM OS, it would lag at times.

I thinking to try to change the rear and front moduls of my G3 with these of G4.I found that they have the same pins and just a plug and play but I am not sure will the software will recognize the camera ? What do you think I think that is not impossible maybe just some configuration in the kernel.

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dekefake:
I will try the same with Nexus 5. You need to rebuild your LG G3 kernel including G4 camera drivers (just pick them from G4 kernel source)

Then, you may need some G4 vendor libs.

Then replace files if you have problems. Use logcat to debug.

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dekefake:

Think that, if you just change rear camera, you need to keep drivers of the front facing camera, so you may need to edit the kernel to add rear camera drivers, and maybe, take some camera vendor libs from G4
