[Verizon LG G5 Questions & Answers] Smithfolk4:
Check the thread here for some discussion on battery life.

http://xdaforums.com/lg-g5/how-to/battery-life-thread-t3350032

I seemed to incur significant standby drain because I disabled some apps. I just reenabled them this morning. Still need to keep an eye on things, but I will copy my days results from the other thread. To see more details on what has been going on, check the other thread.

Right now I am at 66% with 2:05 SOT and 16 hours since unplugging. The Android OS, held awake, and Google Play Services are all somewhat reduced.
[Verizon LG G5 Questions & Answers] djsbad:
As far as disabling apps, the only thing I've disabled are the vzw apps and also the Amazon apps. There's a lot there that I don't know what they are so I just left them alone.

As far as my idle time is concerned, it had gotten a little bit better, but it is nowhere even close to what I could get out of my nexus 6. When I'm actually using the phone, the battery drains pretty quickly as well. I installed gsam battery monitor after reading through the thread that you posted above. I figure I'll need to wait a couple of days to get a true feedback from that app. Once it stabilizes, I'll report back what it says.
[Verizon LG G5 Questions & Answers] Smithfolk4:
I have recently noticed that I get drain when I use Google (now) and/or Chrome. I don't use either too much so I am still investigating. When I use them I get a lot of held awake time in GSAM and a lot of Google Play Services and Android OS battery usage in the native battery usage app. I have to stop the apps and reboot to get the drain to stop. At least that is what is seems like at this point. Still messing around with it. If you use those apps a lot it may be a pain to deal with. If it is one or the other, hopefully an update will fix the issue.
[Verizon LG G5 Questions & Answers] djsbad:
I don't have google now activated, but I do use chrome. I don't see out rubbing in any background services though.
[Verizon LG G5 Questions & Answers] djsbad:
I did forget to mention that I revived nova launcher and all apps associated with it, (tesla unread, nova prime, unused icon packs), I also uninstalled any apps that I have not been using or rarely use.

Having said that, i did give google maps full permissions, went back to the stock launcher that came with the phone, and I did keep all my disabled apps....disabled. I charged my battery to 100%. I pulled my phone off the charger and it took over 30 minutes for the battery to get below 100%. I just got home about 15 minutes ago, and all I've done is Check my email and reply this post and my battery has dropped 5%. It hasn't even been 10 minutes. That's pretty bad. That would equate to roughly 30% an hour.

I'll keep updating as i search for things. I'll try dialing chrome and see what happens.

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Group_Home:
Hey!

First of all I hope this is the correct section for this problem.

I looked everywhere, on xda, on other forums, and no luck, so I decided to ask my questions directly.

Well, it's like this. I have a XPERIA Z3 which is branded with T-Mobile. It has T-Mobile applications/bloatware, and T-Mobile logo on boot. My question is, can I remove the applications, and the boot logo without rooting?

Or can I download an unbranded stock ROM (or firmware, not sure if it's the same thing) for Z3, and that way remove the T-Mobile logo and applcations? Will that work?

If someone knows, please tell me where to download the stock ROM/firmware.

I hope you understand where I'm going.

Thanks.

You need flashtool (Download it from flashtool.net) then you can download a FTF and flash it.

An Android update to 5.0.2 was released about a month ago that has made my phone run very slow and a fix has still not been released. I also have yet to receive a response from BLU support on what my options are. Prior to the update, the phone ran considerably better and now get hung up while performing mild multi-tasking such as switching between SMS and Facebook. Performing a Factory reset down not roll back the android version. I am trying to find an older android version but am not having much luck. All help is appreciated.

Dude I'm just happy you responded to me about your backup. I almost gave up on this phone because i looked everywhere on the internet and it seemed as if the phone didn't exist to a stock ROM. Like i said before... I have twrp and root and no OS and just needed someone to make a backup using twrp so I can install it on my phone or at least find a stock one that I can use with twrp. Luckily you came thru and thank you for your response. Hopefully I don't have to use this cheapo (second phone) for long.

Inspired

did a lot of reading .... to find out it was only a corrupt boot image ... I was only getting TWRP recovery to load.

after reading About ADB and FASTBOOT

I learned how to flash the boot image , but first i need the ADB driver install on my PC.

Im not good at writing directions , but i took notes.... also was able to make back ups of all partitions.... We really only need to fix the ones we over written ... In my case was only boot image and recovery image.... my system was in tack..

thank you for inspiring me to go the distance.... I learned alot.

I may need to start from the beginning .... WOW! i used the " Qualcomm Flash Image Loader " QFIL !!!

QFIL to the 5.0.2 Lollipop... . did not not do a OTA UPGRADE...

The part that gave me the most troubles in win10s is the drivers to load...... Well i over thought it by clicking on the wrong folder..... da .. The root folder was good enough to find the right driver the old school way... Like in the win98 days.... so i followed these direction to put windows in TEST MODE so i could load the driver. easy part.. Oh and putting the phone in install mode.... well i didnt know you take all the check marks off in USB computer connection on the phone... Well stumbling through this and a few YOUTUBE videos and some really good directions SECURE with a backup.. as long as i an connect the phone to the pc...I will now root this 5.0.2 and put twrp on it.. then de - bloat the bloat - ware.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kwkevinlin:
Yesterday I flashed my AT&T HTC M8 to a custom ROM (Wolla) because my phone was really laggy after the Lollipop update, and I noticed that although I am still able to make calls, I cannot receive calls anymore. I am wondering if it is possible that I messed up a step somewhere (especially step 3), or if I flashed my phone with the wrong ROM?

I also looked around on XDA more, and realized a few people also had this problem, and it was resolved by turning 4G data off. Apparently this is a problem with AT&T activating Voice over LTE, and the custom ROM not supporting/compatible. Is there a suggested fix to this problem (eg. flash back to the RUU on HTC's site)?

Here are the instructions that I followed to flash the new ROM:

Unlocked my phone via the HTCDev website

Installed TWRP

(Here is where I think the problem occured). I downloaded the Wolla Marshmallow ROM from the XDA thread, and took the boot.img image from the .zip into my fastboot folder.

Then in fastboot, I typed in "fastboot flash boot boot.img", then "fastboot reboot" to reboot my phone.

HOWEVER, my phone would be stuck in white Android booting screen, and wouldn't move for around 10 minutes, so I thought it was stuck.

I redid step 4 a few times, but the same thing always occured.

Finally, I decided to take the boot.img file from an RUU from HTC's website, and use that instead of the boot.img from the Wolla .zip file.

Now my phone boots, and everything seemed to work.

The only issue is that although I can make phone calls, I cannot seem to receive phone calls. It doesn't "ring" on the caller's end, and goes to voicemail in the end.

Does anyone have any experience with this?

My phone is an HTC One M8 bought from AT&T, unlocked about a year ago.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
You're on the right track (AT&T's deployment of VoLTE is the problem), and there is one more suggestion I can make: call AT&T and have HD Voice (their branding of VoLTE) turned off for your account. Details here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=62001970&postcount=28

Not a true "fix" as obviously, you will not have VoLTE if you do this. But its not a bad compromise, IMO. Not may folks are going to miss VoLTE, and at least the above workaround will allow you to use the custom ROM you want, and have LTE data.

Your other option, is to use an AT&T-based ROM. But who the heck wants that? ;)
