[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pda1ey:
Hi,

I've got a high battery drain problem with the latest Google Play Services (cmasystemupdateservices causing the wavelock).

There are a couple of reddits about this:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Nexus/comments/4jmw74/cmasystemupdateservice_wakelock/

https://www.reddit.com/r/AndroidQue..._is_cmasystemupdateservice_its_preventing_my/

but no solution.

I'm running 4.4.4 as well, but my wife's Lollipop phone doesn't have this issue. Given that its an update service causing the issue I wonder if this is Google's way of getting us to upgrade!

If this was affecting all Android phones I'd expect to see more of an outcry about it.

Regards.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vl319:
I too have this problem. Now have to rolled back to stock play services. Any solution?
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drmuruga:
Unchecked all in Google play settings
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] solidstate94:
[MENTION=5293004]pda1ey[/MENTION] thanks for the Reddit links! Unfortunately, as you mentioned they don't offer solutions to our problems.

[MENTION=6040662]vl319[/MENTION] did Google Play Services autoupdate even though you rolled back to stock version please?

[MENTION=6991204]drmuruga[/MENTION] I think Google Play Services still autoupdates with those settings unticked.

Thanks to all for your feedback :) hope we find a solution.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vl319:
After i rolled back to stock version, it doesn't auto update until now. But u will keep getting message saying apps wont run until play services is updated.... But it is fine for me.. I tried to reset app preference, disable greenify, amplify, privacy guard but none of these work. Probably we have to wait for new update or reinstall the device
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] solidstate94:
I will follow your suggestion and roll back to stock Play Services. When I manually install Google Play Services 8.7.03 it automatically updates to 9.0.82 after a couple of hours. When you had version 9.0.82 were Gmail and Chrome force closing? Thanks!
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ircman:
I experience same problem on my wife's 4.4. cm and on my 5.1.1 android. Google play services automaticily updated to 9.0 and since then all google related apps is force closing. I noticed, that if I uncheck everything under google play services in privacy guard, apps will work, but then my phone's battery will go down the drain :). Is it possible, that Google play services update only, when I open Play store and not completely automaticly?
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vl319:
I am using official COS13 and its stock version is 8.3.01, older than 8.7.03 and it doesn't auto update to new version. and i have no problem of syncing contact, calendar, keep and etc.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] solidstate94:
[MENTION=6040662]vl319[/MENTION] my stock version is version 5. That's why I tried solving the issue by updating manually to 8.7.03. Unfortunately, my stock version is not compatible with the Apps I use. Thanks for the clarification!

[MENTION=3254173]ircman[/MENTION] maybe you can update to a newer version of Google Play Services on your phone to solve the issue. For instance, update to 9.0.83 or 9.0.82. Another user (drmuruga) in a previous post suggested to turn off automatic updates in the Play Store. However, I don't know if it works because I haven't tried it myself.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ircman:
Sorry, I wasn't exact, now I am using 9.0.83. The problem apeared when the Google Play Services updated automaticaly to 9.0.83. Until that moment the phone and all the apps were working flawlesly. I belive that is something wrong with the newest version of Google Play Services, or that they don't want us to block things like Keep Awake, Location, Wake up, Auto Start (this things drains battery really fast).

Probably the only solution for now is to downgrade Google Play Services, and to somehow block automatic updates for Google Play Services.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] solidstate94:
[MENTION=3254173]ircman[/MENTION] as regards blocking the things you mentioned, I think you still can block them if you want.

Moreover, you can manually uninstall the updates of Google Play Services to temporarily solve the problem. Then either stick with the stock Play Services (vl319 clarified in a previous post that it won't auto update but some Apps might not work) or install a version of Play Services that doesn't cause problems as I did. However, after a few hours it auto updates and the problems start again. Thus, you need to repeat this process (I am repeating this process on average twice daily).

If anybody comes up with a permanent solution or has some advice, I would really appreciate it. Thanks in advance!

Hello everyone

I have the same problem you exactly with "google play service" in 9.0.82 release.

it drains my battery and my GPS connection has become very very slow (over 5 min) while with the 8.7.03 release I had no worries.

I am also in version 4.4.4 and I have my wifi, my connection and my GPS data which are off all the time except when I need them.

If anyone has a solution I'm interested
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] solidstate94:
My problem with Google Play Services 9.0.82 is not related to battery drain and GPS. On my OPO 9.0.82 is causing some Google Apps to FC (as I explained in the first post).

If your OPO is rooted there are some solutions on this forum on how to block Google Play Services from updating. tc :)
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bion59:
OK thank you for your answer.

I actually did a search on the forum and I find an application that seems to do the job is "disable service" findable on the play store.

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WSADKeysGaming:
Since I got my S6 last November, I have been happy with it. I've got a new case for it, a screen protector, but even then I took such care with it because I know how much power it holds and how bad I would feel if I lost it or broke it. After the last two weeks, I've had something very strange going on with the media audio levels. I can continually keep pressing the volume button up, and the volume gets louder. But, when I get two "steps" away from maximum volume it seems that at that spot it is the highest it can go, 100%. If I press the volume up button again, it seems like it goes down to 95%, and it's full volume, 90%. I cannot think of a reason why it would do this, other than the fact that I have taken it into some areas with a high humidity level, like in the bathroom while running a hot shower, or in a locker room after football practice. I'm not sure that this would only affect the speaker, but for my issue with the speakers, not. I have tried this with the internal media player, YouTube, Spotify, Pandora, Samsung Milk Music, and Google play music. Not only have I tested it out with the internal speaker of the device, I've tried with Apple earpods, the old Apple earphones, the Samsung earbuds that came with the device, my Sony Bluetooth headphones MDR zx770bt, my Bose Bluetooth speaker, a Pioneer amplifier, boom headphones, Sennheiser Headphones, and even hooking my car up to it with an aux cable. I don't know why this is happening, and I don't know how to stop it. Can any of you help me or have you had this experience before as well?
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dorkydroid:
okay, i had a slim rom running on my fire (5.1.1) and tried to go to cm12 using flashfire. i made sure that wipe was at the top of the list. it got stuck on installing the new rom, so after 30 minutes i restarted tablet. i got stuck in the cm logo bootloop. i do still have access to the amazon stock recovery. tried to do a data wipe/factory reset. still stuck at logo bootloop. i tried to sideload the amazon stock bin file, but it stops after 5 seconds and says "failed to read command: invalid argument" and goes back to the recovery main menu. if you try to do another sideload, it instantly says "timed out waiting for package. installation aborted" before you even press anything. have to restart device to try sideloading again.

at one point i had it almost install cm12 from a zip file through sideload, but at the very end it gave me a signature verification fail. since i can't boot the phone, i can't turn on usb debugging. sometimes it'll show up in the device manager as mtp but never shows up as fire or android device or any of that. it will show up on adb devices command when its in fastboot, but can't do anything with it from there. i've tried all the different ways in the forums here and rootjunky, but nothing seems to work at all. any ideas if i'm doing something wrong or is this just bricked, regardless of stock recovery?

tried a few commands to see if i could fastboot one of the roms or stock images, but they all tell me its missing the android-info.txt

[Galaxy S 5 General] *Detection*:
When you try and toggle the "Root Explorer" switch to enable root in ES File Explorer, you are met with and error

"Sorry, test failed. This feature cannot run on your device. Root Explorer"

Use another root explorer app with root permissions, and copy the contents of /su/bin/ (about 7 files) and paste them inside /system/xbin/﻿

Now try turning root explorer on in ES File Explorers Tools setting

It should now turn on and work fine

[Galaxy S 5 General] gggirlgeek:
I'm on the J7 and having this problem because of Samsung. Moving the files to xbin doesn't work with Root Explorer. Says Copy failed. So even after it's mounted RW I can't copy and paste files. Strangely I was able to rename a file. Don't know why.

Did this trick. But copy still failed even though ES File Explorer got root successfully.

(FYI: Trying to copy sound files into the system.)

Any other ideas?

I am fed up with Samsung!!!
[Galaxy S 5 General] gggirlgeek:
FOR ANY SAMSUNG: Figured it out. All my folder access troubles are Knox's fault! But I had to do a command line trick along with disabling Knox.

You'll need: Root Package Disabler and Terminal Emulator

*So after rooting get either Titanium Backup Pro (not free) or Root Package Disabler (free) or Package Disabler Pro (not free). (They do the same thing.)

*Open the program you installed. Find anything with "knox" in the name and disable it. I, personally, disabled Lookout as well because it often doesn't like advanced root apps or modifications. But it shouldn't block ES File Explorer.

*Open Terminal Emulator. Put in the commands below, one-at-a-time. Hit Enter after each. REBOOT WHEN YOUR DONE. (Source here.)

su

mount -o remount,rw /system

touch /sbin/su /system/bin/su /system/xbin/su

mount -o remount,ro /system

exit

Reboot and Root ES File Explorer again.

Note: ES File Explorer won't copy files to the system or other sensitive folders. You still need "Root Explorer" or maybe "Solid Explorer" for that. This makes ES File Explorer useless to me. However, you still need the steps above to copy sensitive system files in the other root enabled file browsers. So do it anyway. ;)
[Galaxy S 5 General] sensei_fritz01:
Hi guys! I know this is an old thread and Samsung Space, but i still use ES File Explorer Pro 1.1.4.1 because i like it. But somehow i lost root. Don't know how and why, everything worked fine on my rooted (with Magisk 23.0) Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 with Android 10 (Sorry for that, but i didn't find anything else in the www about this problem). Now i receive the same message "Sorry, test failed. This feature cannot run on your device." and don't know how to solve this. I uninstalled and reinstalled ESFX, deleted it from the list of rooted Apps in Magisk and it asked for the permissions again.... fine..... granted! But still i can't activate it's root explorer. This doesn't work :

" Use another root explorer app with root permissions, and copy the contents of /su/bin/ (about 7 files) and paste them inside /system/xbin/"

....because there is no "/su/bin" and therefore i can't copy anything.
[Galaxy S 5 General] Fooking Rekt:
Same issue here. I ended up copying all files from any folder containing "bin" (sbin, xbin, bin) to /system/xbin to no avail.

Not sure if it is accurate, but it seems like it is, but old ES cannot work on devices that have systemless root.

You can certainly do this. You'd just have to write the program. The OnePlus One does support all kinds of gestures, which you can see best by flashing ColorOS.

The panel on the bottom is also able to wake the phone with a double tap, etc.

List most things with Android, sure, it's possible, but no, it's not going to happen without you doing it, or finding another person and paying them if they aren't on it already.

[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] computerslayer:
To confirm - you're using an AT&T-branded HTC M9 and you're currently on the Lollipop firmware, right?

Assuming that is correct, the simplest solution is for you to restore your phone to stock using the RUU from HTC for the AT&T M9. Once you've done that, go to Settings->About->Software updates->Check for updates within Android to prompt your phone to download the Android 6.0 OTA update from AT&T that was recently released.

Be aware that RUUs wipe your phone's internal memory - backup anything you care about.

And from there, you can flash the latest TWRP (don't use the 2.x.x.x versions - those are not compatible with the latest firmware), flash SuperSU and install the latest ROM of your choice.

Sunshine works on all M9 devices: "All modern HTC devices (m9 m7 m8 e8 Mini2 remix dna etc) devices are supported up to 6.0.1, as long as they are rootable." (emphasis added)

Hi there,

I've just stripped down my Wizard for a repaint job, and I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on how to re-tint the lcd screen, so it would blend in with the silver and black paint scheme I am building. I can get some of the commercial car window tinting foil, but am still a little apprehensive about applying it to the lcd. Using Dferreiras HTC touch module gives a decent display on the 50% brightness mark, so a tint should be pretty useable with a higher brightness setting (battery saving be damned, it looks cool)

Any ideas folks

Thanks
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] calouro:
I would buy some screen protectors for only a few dollars and then apply the tint to the protector then apply the protector to the LCD. This way you are not permanently changing the LCD and you can remove it easily if it does not look good or the brightness is too dim.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] rgp1236:
First, what you do to your phone is your responsibility, etc., etc.

I am not a developer. The work is mostly not mine. A group of folks have been playing with this for a couple weeks over in the General section, and thanks to a great deal of help from others, it is ready to put out there. Hopefully, a developer can polish it and work out the few kinks there are. I will continue to explore and experiment. but this feels like a daily driver at this stage!

1. Gather the files needed as listed in the instructions.

2. I was on the BPA1 modem.

3. I wiped the phone completely. Everything but the micro sd.

4. Install Nameless Rom available at Er. Aditya's thread: http://xdaforums.com/note-4/snapdragon-dev/rom-nameless-mm-lightfastdeodexed-t3363547

5. Install Louforgiveno's Verizon data fix (attached).

6. Install AEL kernel available here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24499762636001208

7. Reboot. It will take 15 minutes or so to finish the boot and may reboot during the process. Be patient. Once the phone boots completely, and you go through setup, it will take a few minutes to establish connection to the network, but it has been solid for me once it does. This occurs each time you boot.

8. Reboot into recovery and flash Chainfire's SU available here (the kernek will wipe it): https://download.chainfire.eu/696/supersu/

Alternative kernel posted by Kcnycity: H-Vitamin kernel found here http://sharewidget.org/forum_xda-developers/note-4/snapdragon-dev/kernel-h-vitamin-t3364213. I found that I lost brightness control with this kernel on my dev edition, but not my retail. Which raises another point raised by douger1957. I think we had assumed that the dev phones and retail are the same, but the experience has varied across a number of users, so it is a trial and error process for each phone to find the best combination for your device.

ALTERNATIVE ROM: Try Dr. Ketan S7 rom here (for 910G) : http://www.drketanrom.com/n910g.html

Use the H-Vitamn kernel. Looks flawless so far. Network access is faster. And theme engine!

I had forgotten how much fun this can be!

Thanks go to:

Louforgiveno, without whom this would not be happening

Er. Adiytya and his team, who allowed me to use his port

KeTuRr74, who pointed us in the right direction for the data fix

FYI, at least two other roms from the Snapdragon forum will work with this process.

Known issues with this version:

1. Verizon Message Plus works but does not complete the subscription process. (Update: After about 14 hours, Message + has synced).

2. Slow to connect to network
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] InfantryMarc:
Did you have to install the bootloader/ modem like it's stated in the OP on the ROM page or just the ROM itself followed by the data fix, kernel, and submit update?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] douger1957:
No.

---------- Post added at 08:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:39 PM ----------

It should be noted that there seems to be differences in how the ROMs from the Snapdragon forum behave, depending on whether your phone is a Developer Edition or a converted Retail Edition. It's suspected that there are different bootloaders at play.

Also, try to make sure that you give thanks to louforgiveno and keturr74. Both have been a big help in bridging the gap between Verizon phones and the other Snapdragon variants.
