[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] breakfastdude:
I have an L01F, a Japanese G2. The ROM right now is CloudyG2 3.3, with the stock Cloudy kernel. My problem is that the phone seemingly doesn't charge to 100%; it usually stops at 93-98%, but unplugging it and a simple reboot immediately changes the reading to 100%. I dug around, and whenever the phone stops charging at a level below 100%, the voltage reading is at ~4200mV, which is supposed to be 100%. I've done battery calibration numerous times already, and nothing seems to work. The problem first started showing when I installed KK Dorimanx kernel when I was still using CloudyG2 2.2 (KK). I've moved on to CloudyG2 3.3 (LP) with proper wipes, but to no avail. Anyone have any idea what's going on?

EDIT: the battery voltage hovers at around 4330mV when it stops charging below 100%
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] briskspirit:
Seems like battery controller problem?..
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] breakfastdude:
Would that mean I have to replace the battery to fix this?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] briskspirit:
I don't think that you should do that.

For example my Mac shows 99% max, and wife's older one shows 93% max.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] breakfastdude:
Just an update:

I recently found out that, using the hidden menu *#*#4636#*#*, the battery hovers at around 4330mV when it stops charging below 100% (in the past it would stop charging at around 4200mV). I think that this is detrimental for the battery's longevity, and I need to fix this asap. I've tried calibrating the battery again using the appropriate steps, still no luck. Anyone have any idea? Could this be a ROM bug? Kernel?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greenpharmer:
2 questions. How old is the battery? Have you let it completely drain and recharge?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] breakfastdude:
The battery is around 1.5 years old. And I have done complete discharge and (undisturbed) charge cycles multiple times now. It only gets straight to 100% if I leave it turned off while charging. Else, I would need a reboot to change the reading to 100% after it stops charging.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greenpharmer:
At that rate I'd look into a replacement battery. Litium cells build internal resistance over discharge cycles.and Given uve done full discharge/charge cycles only getting a full charge when off is a good sign.

If I remember right u said you have a LG G2. It does not have a replaceable battery it is very easy to swap. I can try and do a basic teardown video of a G2 tomorrow at work if you would like.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] breakfastdude:
I would appreciate that, would be very helpful. I guess it is indeed time for a replacement battery. No rush for the teardown though, I'd still have to look for a replacement battery. Thanks!
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greenpharmer:
Not a problem man. I'll dig through the boxes at work tomorrow to build a G2 and tear it down. A new battery should be pretty easy to find on eBay, swappa, or some of the various parts dealers on line for pretty cheap. That used to be one of the biggest problems with g2's aside from broken lcd's
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xNotta:
Try draining the phone till it shuts itself off, then charge it to 100% while the phone is still off.

Boot it back up with the power cord still attached.

It should be back to 100%.

If you have the time, a normal discharge refresh is 100%>0%>100%>0%>100%. So 3 cycles.(I do this with my 3000mA LiPo batteries at 1amp and it takes like 15 hours.)

If that doesn't help, you could try to check internal resistance, if it's over 500mili-ohms, it's a bad battery.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] breakfastdude:
Thanks for the tips! And nope, I haven't been able to perform a normal discharge refresh. Unfortunately, I don't have that much time to spare away from my phone. But will definitely try this if I do find the time (before getting a replacement battery, that is).
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] appsmarsterx:
Are you getting the same results with other roms too? Try Dirty Deeds rom, if you haven't tried it yet.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] breakfastdude:
Unfortunately, it's the same with other compatible roms. AFAIK only a few roms are compatible with L01F (Japanese G2), and Dirty Deeds isn't one of them.

What I haven't tried is flashing the kdz, since I don't have the time to do that, plus I don't like JB (though the stock JB gave me the best battery life by far). Thinking back, this problem might have started when I played around with the charging speed options in the KK Dorimanx kernel back when I was in CloudyG2 2.2.

bat vid

Sorry it took so long to get this made. finally got a g2 to tear apart. all thats needed is a gituar pick/nails/etc, p00 Philips screwdriver

turn sound off, theres no important audio.

1 remove sim tray

2 pry up the corner and use pick to remove back cover

3 Unscrew top and bottom plastic pieces, remembering where the black screw goes

4 remove associated ribbions and peel buttons back.

5 Pry battery out, Use a little caution here since it is a lithium battery, and you are using the back of the frame and lcd as leverage.

the frame is pretty sturdy. and the battery is taped in pretty good. a little 99% alcohol can help loosen it when the corner is peeled up,

Reinstall is opposite

sorry the video is in 2 parts, and uploaded to mega

Funny thing ive recently replaced my old battery with a new original one and stiil getting 100% at 4330mv too. Haven't figured what's wrong, still searching :/
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] ares93:
Ordered a black Gear a week ago, but they were out of stock, so I agreed to take a white one instead. However I'm starting to think I was stupid.

I work with a lot of chemicals and different type of inks. One of those being the same type of ink that banks use. You know the **** that blows up in your face and turns you blue like a smurf for a month if you rob a armoured van. I seriously doubt the watch is gonna stay white for long.

Any white Gear owners, (as in owners of white gears, not white owners of gears lol) that can pitch in? How resilient is it against dirt?

Replace my silver gear with a white one this summer. Had no problems with mine. Actually prefer the white unit to the silver one. Still clean as a whistle.

So i changed from the 8125 to the wing and I have discovered it is much more difficult to send a new text message. You have to go through like 5 different commands...(open the message bar, select text message account, tap menu, scroll to new, scroll to sms) it just seems so tedious so i was wondering if anyone knows of a way to make it so i can have new message be one of my soft key choices (preferably where the delete soft key is). Its really annoying.

Thanks BP
[Wing, P4350 General] iTeQ:
How about when you install the HTC Home plugin, I HAD one until i bricked my phone yesterday :'( it came with the PDAVIET rom which was released some time ago.

What it does is, it shows on the Today screen a link to Email and one to SMS.

That's probably the fastest way.

Cheers
[Wing, P4350 General] MisterSosa:
how 'bout putting the command "new sms" under a softkey ?
[Wing, P4350 General] The Dutchman:
Or simply install the program "name" (sorry forgot the name) that puts a "New" menu at your left soft-key in the today screen, from there you can choose sms, e-mail, mms etc.. Just search for New menu
[Wing, P4350 General] Kar98:
Press Contacts softkey. Scroll to the intended recipient. Tap, hold, pick "Send Text Message". Type text message. Press Send softkey.

What's the problem?
[Wing, P4350 General] azurefog:
How About VIJay?

Hello,

I use VijaySMS All the time... It allows you to make a shortcut (I use SPB Today so I create the shortcuts in there) that either starts a blank SMS or start one to a specific contact. You can find the program at Vijay's webpage here: http://www.vijay555.com/

Enjoy!
[Wing, P4350 General] freakingwilly:
You could set up the Message button to automatically go to your SMS Inbox when you press it.

Messaging Inbox > Menu > Tools > Options...

Select Text/SMS and uncheck "Display account picker when opening Messaging." This will automatically open your SMS Inbox, thus eliminating the first two steps of your problem.
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] AndiF85:
This is a two part question.

Firstly does anyone know if there is a way to calibrate the s-pen. Mine seems ever so slightly off when writing as I would with a normal pen (on a slight angle).

I also have the bamboo feel but that is even worse (around 2-3 mm off).

Next question is are there any other s-pen out that like the bamboo feel? I like the bigger size of it as it's more comfortable for writing with but accuracy seems to be the issue with some third part pens. I'm surprised there issue nothing from Samsung already for the note 5. I understand there are the pen holder or the bt pen but those are for older devices so I'm not sure how accurate they are or compatible.
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] tarunscool:
Can you make sure that there is no cover when trying, as magnetic covers or even flip covers cause the S-pen to be inaccurate.

in older models, magnet closure cases made a huge difference.
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] free123rww:
Hello; I am not sure if anyone had such problem about note5 spen. . I can't use with spen whole screen..i mean at the middle of one side is not seen by spen although I can write that side with my finger..how can i solve this problem? Thank you anybody who responses!!
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] harlenm:

[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] bosswick:
Try typing in *#0*# in your dialer. This will bring up the integrated hardware test. There should be one for S-Pen (not touch) and try it on that screen. If it does not pass the test, then you are probably looking at a hardware failure/malfunction.
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] mexkingsthugz:
Broke my S pen when my phone fell. Any good sites to get a replacement?
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] umitkina:
Try spen with eraser.

[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] GastonC:
I know this is an old post, but I am trying to find a gold s-pen. Samsung doesn't sell them on their site. To get mine warranties will take over a month. I have seen them on Amazon but really no where else. Wondering if anyone has tried them and any issues. Where do you recommend?
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] emailrob:
Did you manage to find one? Amazon is $20+, lots of cheap ones from China for $5.
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] GastonC:
Found one on Amazon that comes in Samsung packaging. WORKS LIKE ORIGINAL
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] FatRakoon:
For what it is worth...

I have both a NOTE 3 and a NOTE 5

The 5 I only bought recently and the Stylus hole was blocked and there was some weird other stylus somehow wedged into it.

The previous owner knew he was selling me a duffer but there we go.

Anyway, I managed to get it out and I bought a new stylus for it, but the bloody thing was not quite right... It was something like about 1.5mm off down and right. I am very very good with sizes and so trust me, its more than 1mm but not quite 2mm but thats by the sideways... I just assumed that the bloody thing needs calibrating to this stylus.

Anyway, it was some time later that I thought... Why not try the note 3 and 5 styluses on each other... They both work just fine, but guess what? It was not the screen that needed calibrating at all? - the stylus is to blame.

The Note 5 stylus is wonky just the same on the Note 3 and the Note 3 Stylus is perfect on the Note 5

If only I could swap them over?

But there you go... Maybe its a new stylus or a replacement stylus you should be looking for and not a calibration of the screen?
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] senectus:
yeah mines a few mm's off as well. its very annoying.
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] Brau0303:
There is also a waycom test in the integrated hardware test menu (this would be good for seeing how your s-pen registers on the screen)

Also you may want to try another N5 s-pen (if you know someone that has one see how it does, the one you have may have a defect)
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] TechNyne66:
You can take off the cover on the button of the spen and there's a tuning adjuster under it. Factory is set to be off a little.
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] senectus:
whut? seriously?

Sounds dodge to me. Got pics?
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] akshan:
I tried Note 4 stylus on Note 5 and it felt like a Note 7 stylus on Note 7. Note 5 stylus is useless. in comparison.
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] Deleted member 7436581:
So stupid that companies still make Note cases with friggin battery clips on them. But then again there seems to be a fair amount of people who buy these Note devices but rarely use the S-Pen which is bizarre to me.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EvanRain:
Here's how I spent my last night.

I have I9500. I decided to downgrade from 5.1.1 CM, did wipe, flashed MIUI. Didn't liked it - wiped - flashed CM 4.4.2 11-20140217.

First sign of a problem were black previews in default Gallery (I can't say if it was on MIUI or CM); then I tried to install xposed and got error. It become evident that my /Android/data/ is read-only (my camera was crashing on startup, browser - when I tried to download file).

I tried to change permissions via Root Explorer -> got an error ("Can't change permission, possibly you have file system that don't allow that."). I Googled, tried some apps, without success. Tried various terminal commands, a lot - with same result. Then I formatted all partitions via recovery (they all was ext4). Fixed permissions. Installed CM nad Gapps again - no result. I wanted to format my phone via PC, but coudn't figure out how to mount it as Mass Storage.

Flashed this (Google: "internal storage is completely write protected please help", first link) - didn't helped.

Help, please. I'm at my wits end.

Sorry for grammar.

P.S.

Yeah, I totally forgot - last option I'm gonna use is flash original firmware via Odin. Problem is it's kinda heavy, and my internet is not so good.

***

I flashed it, broke my modem. Still no access. T_T

***

Flashed again with pit file, gallery and some other apps works now; wiped, installed CM - not working again. Anyone?

***

Flashed with pit again... Installed some apps, in a hour that happened again. Maybe because of some system apps I used. Restored backup, nothing changed. T_T

Help anyone:'(

Fixed access issue^.^
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Araytha:
Hey!

I've been trying to get rid of my navbar as i have LMT installed. I haven't been able to find an option in my rom to disable it.

I've tried a few different thing to remove the soft navbar on my M8, first I tried two build.prop edits;

1) qemu.hw.mainkeys=1 (this worked for the same device when running SlimKat 4.4.4 & SkyDragon not sure of version)

2) ro.show.navigationbar=no

I also tried a couple of apps from the play store and from XDA (Ultimate Dynamic Navbar & GMD Auto Hide Soft Keys) but neither of those worked either, they both installed a second navbar. and this isn't what im trying to accomplish has anyone got any ideas?

I am currently running

ROM: InsertCoin 7.1.9

Android: 5.0.2

Sense: 7.0

Build Number: 4.16.401.10 CL448934

If there is something I haven't tried or done properly please could you assist and let me know.

Thanks in advance!

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Francis_37:
Hello everybody,

I'm new to the forum and not that of a newbie concerning Android but since I've updated to Marshmallow on my Nexus 6 I cannot edit the build.prop, even if I'm root.

I already tried a lot of things, since now I used ES File Explorer to edit the file, but now when I want to save it it doesn't work that message appears "Error occurred when trying to save the file. It will not be saved.". So I say ok I'll try using a Build Prop Editor App, it requests root access, I allow it, then fails.

So after many tries I try to completely reinstall the system a second time, thinking maybe there was something I did wrong the first time I installed and rooted, I installed a root checker, it said my phone was correctly rooted, so I try again with ES File Explorer (With root explorer enabled) still the same problem.

Then I find a tutorial on how to get the build.prop via adb shell, which I try, and I have a message saying "Read only File system", so I try to remount but it still the same problem.

Just for the info, the first time I installed Marshmallow and rooted was with a guide on "theandroidsoul" (sory I can't post links since I'm new). And the second time was with the one on ibtimes.

It might not be useful but I tried two different kernels so it might give you some extra info.

Could someone please help me ? I hope I gave you enough information and sorry if I made mistakes, English is not my native language.

Thank you very much for your help.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scryan:
What version SU did you flash and what kernel are you running? Why would you tell us you ran two kernels but not mention what ones... Lol, were they both stock :P

With Benzo M2 and supersu 2.46 I edited and saved my buildprop this morning with es file explorer. TWRP 2.8.7.1
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Francis_37:
Sorry, I'm new and I knew I would forget info...

So I used BETA-SuperSU-v2.49 and yes the kernels I used were stock, the first one was kernel-shamu-mra58k-color-root, and the second one was ElementalX-N6-2.03.

Thank you :)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scryan:
:P neither of those are stock, stock is stock... Stock based maybe...

I don't know that all kernels have it sorted yet. I haven't really looked over which ones do, but it seems like it ended up taking a few extra tweaks that everyone is sorting.

Benzino was the first I head people having success with, and I want to say I have heard hells core was working too. If you just want to make it work, my best advice would be to reboot to bootloader, reflash boot.img, immediately boot to recovery (either the volume rockers, or just fastboot reboot recovery should work). then flash Benzino. I can at least tell you is should work there. Dirty flashing kernel may have issue with ramdisk modifications clashing (I don't really know much about this, but its usually recommended not to flash one kernel over another). Once things are settled in a little more, go back to your old favorite kernel?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Francis_37:
Waou, I just tried Benzino and Super SU 2.46, it worked like a charm in no time, I even didn't have to reflash boot.img ! Should I still do it ?

Anyway, thank you very much scryan, it helped me a lot :)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scryan:
Meh.

If there are no problems there are no problems :P

If things start going wrong... maybe look there first. I don't know too much about what can and can't happen dirty flashing kernels, so I wont say too much... I just know its not normally recommended, but I've seen plenty of people do it and not have major issues anyways. I think its the kind of thing where if one dev did things one way, and another the other... you don't clear them out and the clash.... I'd just be happy with what works :P
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Francis_37:
Yes you're right :D And I am happy with what I have now, thanks to you :)

I'm glad it's been so quick !
