I'm pretty sure it's a battery issue. It has been reported numerous times, my Universal started turning off at ~35% battery after about one year, bought a new one, problem solved.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] kartam:
oh....

Maybe it is somehow recoverable?

I have no money for a new one... in my country they're quite expensive.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] aboazez:
i have the same problem in wm5 and mw6
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] zcink:
cycling the battery

You could try cycling the battery. Its probably LithiumION. You need to somehow drain it all the way down, then charge it up all the way a few times.

This should bring the battery back to full capacity. Only you can't do it on the phone cuz the phone shuts off at 40%.

That may or may not work. Typical life of a lithium Ion is only 2-3 years.

Ebay has really good deals on them for phones.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] 0bserver:
It is a battery issue.

Why don't you search a little.

There are some exact same threads already.

Buy a new battery!!!!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] hooperman:
All well an good saying look at other threads and "buy a battery" but from my experience I am very sceptical about this issue. I have read many forums on other similar phones and it appears that the Exec seems to be the only model that seems to have this battery issue.

I cannot seriously believe that buying a new battery is the answer, there must be an underlying problem here which allways goes unanswered...!!!

I am now on my third battery, the last one lasted no more than four weeks when it started shutting down at around 75%, and this was a battery from the manufacturer...

My only other option now is to purchase a big blob of a thing which once fitted, will not allow my exec to sit in its cradle whilst on the move...
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] kartam:
oh... these Universals seem quite problematic, but anyway I think i'll stay with one a little longer.

I think Universal needs too much power and this is why batteries, which loose some voltage after being drained, are so weak with it.

Some say that when they turn WiFi on, the battery faints at 80% I think it is caused because WiFi module takes even more power.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] mbirth:
The problem is, Li-Ion batteries only last around 1000 dis-/charge-cycles. (see Wikipedia) and on WM6 I found no way to disable the charging while connected to my PC. (Okay, I didn't try another cable.) So every time you plug your device to your PC for some minutes, it's like charging your battery and it gets a bit weaker.

Also there's no memory-effect with Li-Ion-batteries so a full discharge followed by a full charge may not bring any results despite of an even worse capacity. You should only do this on the very first usage of the battery.

Wikipedia also says the capacity depends on the age of the battery. So if your dealer sells you a battery he has had in his shelf for 2 years, it won't have the capacity as a brand new one.

Read Wikipedia for more info on Li-Ion batteries. WM6 seems to consume some more power than WM5 and thus the battery shuts down a bit sooner than with WM5. It's really a battery issue.

If you could manage to charge the battery only when it is at around 10%, it will last longer than if you charge it every day or even on every PC connection.

Cheers,

-mARKUS
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] arliss:
AFAIK there is no problem to charge Li-Ion batteries every day even if it still has any level of charge exactly because there is no memory-effect.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] topgunarindam:
from my experience - WM6 issue

reverted back to WM5 and now it happens at 20% rather than 40% previously with WM6.

try reverting back to WM5 to find if that is the same case for you as well.....
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] topgunarindam:
this ain't what HTC FAQ section says. That states the battery can be charged at any level withoyut any detriment to the battery life over a period of time.
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] hannanzikrea:
Hello guys !

In this tutorial I will teach you guys to access stock data usage without root.

Data usage is present by default in android phones but for some reason it is hidden.

So,here is the method.

1. Download the app "HiddenApp Launcher".

2. Look for Data Usage in the list and long press it.

3. It will create a shortcut of Data Usage.

4. DONE.
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] hannanzikrea:
We aren't talking about the same thing. I'm talking about stock data manager which is usually present in settings>more>data usage.

And obvio it isn't hidden in Samsung phones. ?
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] hannanzikrea:
I have KlW-L21. Well after doing a bit of search i have come to know that in my VARIANT of phone THAT option is missing in traffic management app. Like seriously. ?
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] romngenie:
Internal storage partition is replaced with partition named "preloaded". It reads and writes to /sdcard but there is no internal storage partition.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suburbadroid:
Re flash stock image through odin.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
Flashing stock firmware will do nothing.

Preloaded is a separate partition.

Internal storage is called 'sdcard', so you're fine.

External is storage is called extsdcard.

Check your partitions with the app Diskinfo.

What has led you to this assumption?
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] romngenie:
But 5 days ago there is a internal storage partition on the TWRP recovery?

And 5 days ago there is no preloaded partition.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
Incorrect, preloaded has always been there it's called HIDDEN.

You have obviously changed twrp to the official version.

You need to select Internal storage under MOUNT options in TWRP.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] romngenie:
There isn't Internal Storage in mount.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
It's at the bottom. Hit the button that says select storage.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] romngenie:
There isnt! There isnt any internal storage on mount section!

Internal Storage changed with preload weirdly.

Just i have Internal Storage on "select storage"
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
You either do or you dont see internal storage which is it?

Your last statement says you DO have internal storage in 'select storage'

Does this device boot or not?
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] romngenie:
Yes boots and works fine and works internal storage too.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
Then your internal storage is fine. You're just not looking in the right place in TWRP.

Internal storage is called DATA and SDCARD in TWRP via File manager.

Introduction

"This mod will let you add contacts, tasks, and apps edge panel from S7 on your non edge/edge+ Samsung device. (On Marshmallow Firmware)." - cited from jovy23.

See screenshots attached. It only works on deodexed ROMs. As you are modifying system files, this could lead to bootloops so please make a full backup before.

Download the files according to your current rom. Most of the mods are from alexndr's devbase, my main rom due to its speed, stability, and great atmosphere in the thread. I will add more according to requests and my personal use.

Downloads

- Thunderbolt N5 Pure Rom : mega v1.2 (G900F and G900W8)

- CPE2 : mega v1.1

- CPD7 : mega (works also on CPB8 according to post n16) v1.1

Installation

Reminder : you need a deodexed rom for it to work

- Backup your partitions. This mods the framework and can induce bootloops.

- Download the linked files, and flash them (e.g. using TWRP or flashfire)

- Reboot and the edge screen can be seen on the right of the screen!

- If you want to be able to download additional edge apps from the Galaxy Store, you will need to edit the file /System/build.prop, and replace "ro.product.model=SM-G900F" by "ro.product.model=SM-G935F", then reboot

Bugs

Lightning shows in options, but isn't active

People edge error

Change log

1.1 : flashable zip

1.0 : initial release

[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] alexbelgium:
Thanks! On which devbase did you test it? CPD7 also?

I wonder if the framework changes a lot between 6.0.1 versions, therefore if I need to remake the mod for each devbase (e.g. CPE1)... Also for me the people stripe does not work. I am still trying to find a way to make it work.
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] alexbelgium:
If you provide me with a copy of the following files, I can make it for you. Also please give me your rom version (ex: G900FXXU1CPD7). I think that the fact that the rom works or not should depend on the rom version (framework version) and not on the phone model.

I need :

- floating feature.xml from the folder \system\etc

- services.jar and framework.jar from the folder \system\framework

Also it will only work if you are using a deodexed rom

[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] alexbelgium:
I'm sorry, your rom is not deodexed so it can't be modded with this method.

For deodexed rom, there is a file within the framework.jar that contains the files that need to be modified (classes.dex). In odexed rom, such as yours, the classes.dex files are deleted and replaced by odex files that are not accessible according to my current knowledge.
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] alexbelgium:

To everyone, people strip is not working for the moment. I managed to add contacts by flashing the s7 contact app, but it does not solve the error message on the panel. I have added it in the known bug list.

I will continue to look into it, but my main reason for creating the mod was to use the panels apps, which work. Until a fix is found for people strip, I suggest that you use an app from Google Store with similar functionalities, such as people edge s7. Thanks.

[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] alexbelgium:
It means that in post n16, someone said that he tried it on cpb8 and it worked even though it was not developed for. You still need to have a deodexed rom for it to work though. I think people for whom it doesn't work either do not have a deodexed rom or do not clear cache after flashing.

Good luck and always make a backup before trying!
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] yassinmixpro:
Ok thank you
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] alexbelgium:
It works on CPE2 for me and others. Do you have a deodexed rom? If not, you need to rename alexndr devbase zip file and add "deodex" in the name for it to flash a deodexed version. More details can be found in alexndr first post of his devbase thread. You can also try to clear cache. I use the exact same rom. Keep us posted!

People edge requires to port also messages and contacts s7 apps. Unless someone provides an easier way to implement it, it will not be in further release of this mod. If you need the function, you can either use a third party app like people edge s7 from play store, or more easily you can put quick contacts in the edge shortcuts panels!

Yes! It depends on the rom version and not the device type. If you use on the the rom for which the mod was developed (CF first post) you can use it. Or else send me the above files and I can make it for you. You also need a deodexed rom for it to work.

[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] alexbelgium:
You could install xXx or ALEXNDR roms... They are like stock but faster and more up to date. When installing, you simply need to specify if you want it deodexed. In alexndr rom you need to add "deodex" to Rom name, in xXx you need to edit a file to specify you want deodexed. If not, then you can always install other apps from Google Store that have similar functions (but not panel edges)
