[LG G Flex] denverdan74:
Anyone else experiencing a new battery drain since the 4.4.2 LS995ZVB upgrade? My Flex used to last 2 days without worry until the last few weeks.

Checking System Settings > Battery > Information > Android OS tops the list now showing 'Keep Awake' for Hours. (8 hours for the 9 hours my phone is on today for example)

Android System has only be Keep awake for 26 minutes.

I'm thinking I just have something jacked up from the upgrade or a Google Play Service update, but before I do a full factory reset, I thought I would check if anyone else has this issue.
[LG G Flex] Zaiaku:
Well i just got my Sprint g flex and already had an AT&T g flex haven't experience that at all. I did the gsm unlocc on the Sprint one still nothing as you experiencing. Have you tired removing some of the bloatware yet from the system?
[HTC One A9] razpuli:
I have the Unlocked A9 and I'm using it on T-Mobile USA.

Setting--> Mobile Data--> Voice over LTE is checked.

VoLTE worked with original firmware, but with the November Security Update (639737.6), it no longer works for me. (VoLTE = calls made under 4G LTE. When I make phone calls now, it changes to 4G even though I have 4 bars 4G LTE).

Please let me know if it works for you. Thanks.
[HTC One A9] CarinaPDX:
I'm still waiting for my unlocked A9 for use on T-Mobile, so I can't give you another example.

I have read that there is no such thing as 4G voice, only (4G) VoLTE. (4G = LTE = data only.) If it is 4G (i.e. data) and doesn't support VoLTE then it must be using a 2G (GSM) band for voice. If it is showing 4G when you are talking then I think it must be VoLTE. At least that is how I understand things.
[HTC One A9] treeco72:
I'm on the latest ota update for the unlocked version and VoLTE works fine for me. I was concerned unlocking the bootloader would change that but i just completed that and calls still go over lte

In fact I've left my phone in lte only mode for the past week
[HTC One A9] razpuli:
Thanks for the input. Based on our info, I'm surprised that VoLTE does not work for me. When I make a call the 4G LTE goes to 4G meaning that it's a GSM call (not through data.) (LTE Discovery confirms this, as the LTE radio shuts-off during the call.)

I might factory-reset my phone and start from the beginning. Not happy, since this is hours of work...
[HTC One A9] treeco72:
Have you tried different cell sites? Perhaps your phone finds the current lte connection to be unsuitable for volte.
[HTC One A9] razpuli:
Could be, but I have a Samsung Avant sitting next to it, and the Avant's VoLTE works while on my A9 it does not. Speed test results are similar for the phones, so I know that the connection is good.

Just got off the phone with T-Mobile, they transferred me to HTC tech support. HTC wasn't much help (just reading from a computer screen). The tech promised that a level 2 support person would call me in the next 24-72 hours.
[HTC One A9] razpuli:
Thanks for all your help. When I read that you are on the latest ota update and your VoLTE works, I suspected it was my phone. Well, I factory-reset my A9 this morning, and VoLTE works now.

BTW, no call from HTC. You would think that they would be interested in helping buyers of their new flagship phone, but nothing.
[HTC One A9] CarinaPDX:
I think they are buried. I have tried emailing them this week about accessories, also tried their chat support, and just nothing. And still no shipping date for my unlocked garnet of 23 Oct. I really don't think they were ready for this introduction and the demand that followed. I just hope the phone is worth it.

[HTC One A9] razpuli:
I like the A9 a lot. Coming from a Samsung S4, the signal strength is OK, but I am very pleased with the battery -- it last all day for me. Screen is bright, camera is good, and it has the latest Android.
[HTC One A9] btort1:
can you tell me your apn settings for t-mobile on a AT&T unlocked a9?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] johnnyh55:
Can I flash the oem ice cream sandwich image or since my bootloader has been upgraded it might brick the phone? Phone is a SGH-I747m.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
Once on stock 4.3 or higher bootloader, you cannot downgrade.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DocHoliday77:
You can flash older roms. Just don't flash anything that includes older bootloaders or modems. Not sure how well an ics rom will run on a 4.4.2 bootloader, but I think it'd probably do ok.
[XDA Assist] vgskar:
Hi X da

I recently updated my Huawei ascend p6 with b708 . But unfortunately it's not performing well and slowed down the phone and hangs a lot. So I wanted to go back to the other stable version like b111, 126, 132 etc but none of those updates succeeded. The b708 doesn't allow the updates to happen and fails. Please help me to go back to any other stable version
[XDA Assist] OfficerJimLahey:
Hello, and welcome to XDA! :cowboy:

Here is your B708 resource...

> Huawei Ascend P6, Mate > Ascend P6 General > Ascend P6 B708 EMUI 3.0 International Firmware

...you can ask there on downgrading options.

Hope this helps, and good luck! :)

A number of reviews have talked about what is likely the noise cancellation or wind noise suppression kicking in while recording videos, producing garbled/muffled audio. Has this been resolved? Do the CM12 ports help with this in any way?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knyghtryda:
So yeah... my screen started to do really strange things (beyond max brightness line on the right, then black lines on the right) before finally giving up the ghost and dying completely. Is there a way of pulling the data off the phone if you don't have any visual feedback? I've powered it off and on, so my first problem is the encrypted volume login, followed by the normal login, followed by getting to the USB setting pulldown to activate MTP. Also... is there a good way of wiping the volume short of just unlocking the bootloader and formatting the data partition? Actually... now that I think about it.... does the bootloader need to be unlocked to do that?

[Elephone M2] crodgers79:
I got this as a gift for my daughter and now all I get on TMO is 3G Edge. I am in Maryland, USA. I thought this thing was supposed to support a bunch of LTE bands but I don't see many matches for either TMO or AT&T. I've tried various APN settings to no avail. Someone suggested flashing a new modem to unlock the 1700 band but I cannot find anything on that either. Am I stuck with a 2G BRICK??????

Please help!

Chris R.
[Elephone M2] RMcT:
Stay close to WiFi! I'm afraid that you may have yourself a '2G brick'. It would appear that T-Mobile in the US use the following frequencies:

LTE Frequencies (FDD LTE, not TDD LTE)

1700 MHz & 2100 MHz AWS band 4

1900 MHz PCS band 2 (in refarmed areas)

Lower 700 MHz band 12 (in development)

3G/4G Frequencies (WCDMA)

1700 MHz & 2100 MHz AWS band 4

1900 MHz PCS band 2 (in refarmed areas)

2G Frequencies (GSM/GPRS/EDGE)

1900 MHz PCS band 2

The only band from this list that the M2 supports is 2G 1900 MHz. The 1700 MHz & 2100 MHz band is an upload/download pair and is different from the 2100 MHz band used in Europe (the one the M2 supports), which is actually a 1900/2100 up/down pair. I'm fairly sure that frequency support is a hardware thing, it's not possible to change supported bands by flashing a new radio module.

It's unfortunate for those of you in the US that Chinese phone manufacturers seem to favour the EU, rather than US, frequencies.
[Elephone M2] crodgers79:
Thank you!!!!!

Thank you for your brilliant and most useful reply!!! Much appreciated! The M2 is now for sale up on Ebay and I just bought a Cube T8 Plus tablet that has phenomenal specs but it too has the wrong frequency support so I'm about to put that up on eBay as well. Thanks again!

Alright, so let me start by saying I read around and I know it's normal, Google just decided to pack the system partition full this time around, but when using the diskinfo app, it shows that there are 0B of unused data! Is that right? Not a single byte? Haha that's weird that Google would choose this! And I know you can delete some Google bloatware to get some space back. Anyways, question here is, is everyone else at 0B after this 6.0.1 update?

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StykerB:
Mines full up as well, or at least it was til I made room for cataclysm. Google makes stock with the idea that you'll never touch the /system ever so having it 100% full just means Google is using every bit of space available to them trying to keep from using internal storage space for their google apps.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JimSmith94:
As others have said and done, delete some unused Google apps from /system/apps or some foreign language keyboards from /system.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] H4X0R46:
Yes, I've seen this said in many threads, I made this thread just to see if everyone else had 0B of memory open.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] H4X0R46:
It's strange really! Thanks for the input though! Glad it's supposed to be this full, I was starting to even think there might be left over files from flashing or something strange like that! Lol

Empty space is not full but "reserved"

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] istperson:
I did a comparison between the system partition of the MMB29K factory image and my AOSP MMB29K based rom with Benzo Gapps which is quite full and the difference is 1,3 GB. The difference is actually about 100M less, because a couple of Google apps is called Prebuilt-something, and it differs from the Gapps installed. So if anybody needs space on system, there's a lot of things to delete from.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
This was done to prevent things like xposed. With the more strict root setup and this Google is making it harder and harder for things like xposed which google wants to put an end to.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] istperson:
I sincerely doubt it. I don't think Google cares about any software particularly. It's more to stop those messing with their system partition that are not entirely sure what they are doing.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
Don't be mistaken. Google doesn't like what we do here.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] istperson:
I don't doubt that for a second. I just don'T believe that that is the main reason the system partition is being filled to the brim.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] H4X0R46:
I really wouldn't doubt it! I was thinking maybe to put an end to root or something like that! Now you have to delete some of the Google bloatware to install traditional root or xposed! I just wonder how they're going to update the Nexus 6 to the next version of Android with no space to work with, unless it is just reserved space and done on purpose.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] H4X0R46:
Just now read that post, well that's just strange! Like I said, I wonder how Google will update this phone further with the next version of Android!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StykerB:
The nexus 5 did the same thing when it was updated to lollipop, it had a 1gb system partition, now the nexus 6 is doing it with a 2gb system partition, the nexus 6p has a 3gb partition, and it wouldn't surprise me android Nougat or Nutella or whatever will probably fill it up too for whatever reason.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] H4X0R46:
The 6P has a 3GB partition? Wow! That's kinda neat actually lol and I just checked the disk space on my sisters Nexus 5 and yea! It's nearly full with a few MB open! And that phone has a locked bootloader and never had any mods installed, it's clean lol That's interesting and I wonder what they're real reasoning is. It could very well be that they don't like system mods on their phones, but like everything else, XDA devs find a way around that almost instantly! Hence the reason people are deleting Google bloatware apps and installing them through the play store! Easy work around :P

Sent from my Nexus 6
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
The main reason is simple. Google doesnt think people need to mess with the system partition so wasted space is pointless.

No they dont like us messing with it and to be honest it has been a bain to their devices and os. Sooner or later they will find a way to lock it completely down.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] H4X0R46:
I sure hope not! That would be awful! :/ people buy a Nexus for the development community and the mods that are out there! But XDA devs work fast, there will be a way to change that rather quickly if this happens! [emoji14] But like I said, that would be awful! Chainfire's systemless root is a huge step in the right direction though! Having root in the boot.img so you can remove bloatware!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
Have you been readin just what he has been saying about it? Even for the nexus Root is not seen as a good thing. Dont get me wrong doesnt matter to me anyway as I dont use google based roms myself so it is just a matter of compiling the new build.

But it is happening. If you step back like a few of us have you can see it coming. Even more and more apps from the play store are looking for things like root and xposed and refusing to work if they are detected.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] H4X0R46:
Oh wow! That's the first I'm hearing of this! I really like Android for it's flexibility and open source licensing, that bums me out. :/ Well thanks for bringing that to my attention! I'll read up on that.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
This is a very common misconception. Only the android kernel is open source. The rest is not. Only AOSP (different then google android) is open source. The flexibility that Google was talking about was being able to change launchers, SMS apps and things like that. They dont really want you messing with the OS.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] H4X0R46:
Oh! I knew AOSP was and the kernel, didn't know that Google Android itself wasn't! Thanks again for clarifying that to me!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
No prob. While the kernel and what not is licensed under the GPL the rest is under the Apache. This is how oem like HTC and Samsung and miui can take android aosp make some changes and then close the source off.

While not completely a bad thing. It does hinder development. Which to be honest is slowly slacking off with the exception of a few like DU and Slim roms
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] istperson:
This is not really a very precise definition. What is "AOSP" and what is "Google Android"? How much of the two is common source? 10%? 50%? 95%?

While I get some of the frustration over the difficulties over customizing stock phones, but people also want to use it to keep all their sensitive documentation on their phones, want to access all their company e-mails, and also pay with their phones. So they want make sure they are secure.

And then they want to mod them, and for that they have to throw that security out.

So instead of fatalistic doomsday speeches, let's think for a moment, and it becomes obvious that there will be a time when people must decide if they want a secure machine for they business and finances, or something to tinker with. I can see a future when you can't do much with a factory image, but you will always be able to build your AOSP instead.

So how big's the difference between the factory MMB29K, and the AOSP MMB29K?

I've compared the two system partitions and 99% of the files that were in the factory and weren't on the AOSP, the 1,2GB difference was in the app folder, which is the Google bloatware, than can be culled without thinking. They even call the most necessary applications builtin, like BuiltinGMail, for people to know.

On the other hand if your system partition is full, nobody can root your locked bootloader phone using an exploit, copy spy files to your system partition then use it to steal company secrets. So after they can blame Google fot insecure devices and allowing industrial espionage.

Well they still can't prevent it, but at least they make it more difficult.

So no, it's not against hobbyists, it's against those who lower the security level for fun, because people want to use it because it's cool, and they just don't know what security risks they take.

Hello, I've been thinking of switching to an AOSP-based ROM. However, I want to know if the battery life will be better or worse, and I need opinion from people who have tried an AOSP-based ROM.

I've heard that they give better battery life on other devices.

I personally haven't noticed a difference between the two. I'm currently running Candy5 and set the IO Scheduler to 'row'. It lasts me throughout the day.

I had a working multirom with Ressurection Remix as my default OS. (It was miui befote that, but then i booted only RR after that). Recently i tried downloading and testing the MOKEE rom (latest release) and i get 'found ext4 .......block/system' twice and it stops. Then I tried MIUI 7.0.5.0 (latest). When i fladhed it said this is for 'cancro', your device is 'aosp_cancro' Status 7, or i get error extracting the file. I had a 1.2 gb system partition before and after i read the forums i saw that mokee works only with default (640~) partition, so i changed back my partition to default. I have treied on cwm amd twrp (6.0.5.1 and 2.8.7.0) i get the same errors.

Any help please?

In my experience with Mokee and Miui, the partition is not the problem. I use Twrp 2.8.7.0, and when I'm flashing either one of these roms, it takes a while to flash. Have you tried waiting for a few minutes? I'm not totally sure about Miui, but Mokee will flash eventually. Let me know if it works
[Mi 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShaanSubbaiahBC:
Thankyou. Mokee did work. Turns, out the twrp progress, bar for mokee is messed up or something. For miui the 'aosp. Cancro' and not cancro status 7 error is still there.

For Miui you can try the method that is described in post number 11 in this thread http://en.miui.com/thread-99601-1-1.html. This works using twrp, I've tried it myself. Keep in mind that it might take a while to flash, like with Mokee.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 06stang:
I'm looking to see if this is normal behavior, bad cables, or a bad phone. When using aftermarket charging cables (c to c or c to a) the charging speed fluctuates from down to 40mA all the way up to 3300mA. Its less pronounced with the OEM charging cable.

What got me thinking this was an issue is I cant get data to transfer from my 6P to my PC without getting errors. So far I've been thinking its my PC problem and I dont really give a hoot but now Im starting to wonder if its an issue with the port.

Using some Amazon cables the phone will mount and dismount constantly. Using the OEM "developer" cable that came with the phone I dont have that issue but I cant move anything over USB to my PC. I get constant transfer errors.

Do I get a replacement or is the charging issue at least normal? I dont seem to have issues charging as I wake up to a fully charged phone every morning (and hot damn my phone lasts a day and a half of moderate usage.)
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] D47x:
bad cable most likely, i bought a usb c (C-to-A) from aliexpress that was non usb c standard compliant. charging was slow but i didn't noticed any worrying fluctuations. data transfer from is always disconnection and reconnecting every half a second, although when flashing in fastboot showed no problems. as long as it's not the usb c to a cable that fluctuates to 3300 mAh and you're only gonna use the cable for charging, it should be okay to use it for a while, although i would recommend getting a usb c standard compliant cable at your earliest convenience.

I got my new cable (usb c to a) from ebay made by baseus and best third party cable i've used so far

1. I made a cable to debug the galaxy nexus s(samsung i9020), it worked pretty well(output the whole bootloader messages);

Then I want to use kgdb to debug the kernel, so I change the kernel source code:

BOARD_KERNEL_CMDLINE := console=ttySAC2,115200 no_console_suspend

CONFIG_FIQ_DEBUGGER=n

following(replicant/wiki/NexusSI902xUART)

2. But I can not see the ttySAC2 (ls /dev/tty*) on mobile after I compile the kernel source code;

shell@android:/ $ ls /dev/tty*

/dev/tty

/dev/ttyGS0

/dev/ttyGS1

/dev/ttyGS2

/dev/ttyGS3

So I think that ttySAC2 need to be initialized, like”xxx _serial_init_port_pads

“ following(replicant/wiki/GalaxyNexusI9250SerialConsole),

3. Where can I initialize the ttySAC2 port? the board's serial port initialization?

4. Or where can i find the exact the steps to configure the galaxy nexus s(samsung i9020) for kgdb( i only can find the galaxy nexus setting for kgdb, but galaxy nexus s and galaxy nexus are very different---different cpu,different kernel source code)
