my g928c heat when I use mobile data and heavy games is it normal or my device has a problem plz help me my Firmwere MMB29K.G928CXXS2BPG1 HELP ME TO FIX THIS PROBLEM ALSO ITS POWER BUTTON SIDE SILVER LINE HEAT TOO
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Лithium-Фusion:
It sounds like normal if you play heavy game though. If it happens when you dont play too, then its abnormal; try older firmware.

Device: G928C

Rom: ToucheWiz

Kernel: SkyHigh v5.1.x
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yaniyu:
this is normal , no is problem of firmware

because heavy game take a lot cpu , run so fast

the phone will be hot ,

when is hot , just let phone cool a bit

this is only way to do with this
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amanda4321:

[General Topics] zabardast_1:
An excellent post and very valuable info.It'll certainly help out many,who believe that the batteries shud only be charged once a day or when it's almost finished or going flat,by this the life of the batteries is saved and prolonged as against to charging whenever possible or more than once in a day,this concept is believed as charging more than one time will create a new charging point every time and will not fully charge the battery,thus,will impact the charge retaining capabilities of the battery and ultimately die out soon.

You are absolutely correct in saying that "This is, of course, incorrect: their capacity will degrade over time."and "that these batteries do lose capacity over time",Of course,they have a finite life cycle from the day they are manufactured,infact every gadget,machinery,electric appliances,PCs,Tvs and all everyday utilities have a life cycle and will die out with passage of time and longer use.

It has been observed in this and many other forums,people posting that their devices have gone dead due to battery going flat as they forgot to charge it. Than it becomes a pain in the A** to get it recharged again and get the phone alive again, Therefore,to avoid this dreadful scenario,it is always better to get the battery charged whenever possible,CUZ IT'S GONNA DIE OUT SOMEDAY,for sure,whether you charge it once a day or when it's gone flat or charge it whenever possible,but definitely save yourself from the horrible situation of getting a dead phone,due to a flat battery and frustrating ways to get it charged again.

Just to mention here,it's my personal experience, as I myself got into this situation once,while in a hurry and urgency,I forgot to get the battery charged and didn't realize it was almost going flat,after a couple of hours,suddenly the phone went dead,I wanted to make some very important calls,but there was no way I cud get the phone Power On,frantically started to look for ways to get it charged as I didn't have the charger with me,I tried to get it charged through usb connection with the Pc,but NO GO,it never started charging and there were no lights on the phone,In short I tried in many ways to get it charged and phone started.

Even,when I got back home,tried it with the Wall charger,it refused to charge,I got horrified.took it to a service shop.They said that while my trying to get it charge through various methods and again n again trying to wake the phone,the Pulse of the battery has gone down from the level,which it requires to communicate with the phone and start charging,Ultimately,it has to be Jump Started to get it working,therefore,I made a rule of my everyday working to get it charged a couple of times during the day,Now I have never to fear and face that dreadful situation again,And let me point out here that I have not seen any degration in the charging or performance of the battery so far as I'm doing this since last six months or so.

Thank you for confirming my believes in charging for more than once is advisable and will not effect much on the battery charge retention and life cycle :D

Good writing ! I didn't know that it affected the battery that much! Thanks!
[General Topics] sl9:
You are correct in saying that only charging a device when it has run down to 0% (or close) is bad for Lithium Ion batteries. That incorrect advice is left over from the Nickel Cadmium (Ni-Cd) era, when it worked on batteries with that chemistry to prolong their life due to the "memory effect".

But I don't think saying that Li-Ion batteries should be charged "as often as possible" is quite right, because keeping them at or near 100% charge WILL shorten their life, just like keeping them at or near 0% will (but not as much admittedly).

If you want to maximize the life of your Li-Ion batteries, you should make sure that they don't get any hotter than 25 degrees celcius (77F), and you should try to keep them in a state of 40% to 60% charge as much as possible (that means take it out of the charger without letting it get to 100%!).

Of course keeping it between 40% and 60% only lets you use 20% of the battery's full capacity, which is not convenient at all! So the next best thing is to charge it to 100%, then recharge it when it gets down to 40%.

Letting it get below 40% is the most damaging, but constantly keeping it above 60% charge is also damaging in the long term.

One last tip: Li-Ion batteries last longer the slower you charge them. So charge them with USB from the computer rather than an AC mains adapter, as this is usually the slower method (USB from a computer contains 0.5 Amps of current, whereas many AC chargers supply 1.0 to 1.5 Amps, even though they may have a "USB" connector).

Everything above can be backed up by various sources, here is a very good one: http://www.batteryuniversity.com/parttwo-34.htm
[General Topics] evojulz:
Interesting you mention charging at different amperes. There are quite a few quick-charge standard battery charges around the place that always state they will boost the battery up to 80% quite fast then the remainder takes a further few hours. This also usually causes the batteries to become excessively hot.

The 110/230 Volt mains charger that came with my Trinity charges really fast but definitely heats it to over 25°C. However the mains to miniUSB charger that came with my cradle, and the one that came with my BT headset both charge at a much slower (and cooler) rate, likely to be 0.5 Amps. I checked out the labels and they all indicate the same ratings. I know, I should chuck the multimeter on them to test…

Maybe I’ll go back to using the cradle mains charger when I’m at home and my PC isn’t on (as if that ever happens) ;)
[General Topics] Menneisyys:
Yup, 60% is the best usage scenario. However,

1. it does have a severe problem: the reduced battery life (60% vs. 100%), which may render its usage problematic in some cases (when you do need the remaining 40%). That is, it's only really usable when you are absolutely sure you can recharge your device when it's still, say, abouve 30%, leaving you an about 30% usability area.

2. the advantage of keeping teh battery around 60% (as opposed to 100%), battery capacity saving-wise, isn't so prevalent than recharging the battery whenever possible. That is, while keeping the battery at around 60% does result in better charge holding after X time, it's net effect is still much lower than, say, letting the battery go flat. As can be seen in the linked report, you can almost completely kill (leaving about 40% of the original charge holding capability) a Li-Ion battery in no more than four months. The 60% rule (as opposed to the 100% one) has far less (albeit, of course, considerable) advantages - on the long run.

BTW, I do the following: I keep my spare batteries I requently (say, in general, once a week or two weeks) use at around 70-80% (it's, being halfway between 60% and 100%, a tradeoff) and batteries I don't use at all (for example, my old Casio Cassiopeia batteries) at 40%.
[General Topics] Menneisyys:
There is some really interesting discussion of this article at MoDaCo, HowardForums, FirstLoox, PPCT, XDA-Developers - well worth checking out for more info / discussion.
[General Topics] Menneisyys:
A quick note: if you know your power source is only capable of providing, say, 0.5A's, you might want to make absolutely sure its voltage doesn't drop under, say, 4.5 Volts at 0.5A. A lot of power sources (this is perfectly natural with all kinds of power transformators) do this; then, the batteries / the phone's electronics starts to struggle with providing the necessay charging voltage (IIRC, 4.2 Volts).

Also, the permanent damage of (or caused by) these chargers can also be a problem - I don't think a cheapo notebook has decent voltage stabilizators. An expensive IBM / Lenovo Thinkpad will never cause any problem to a USB device (they have VERY good USB protection - I've myself found this out with my a31p once, when I, accidentally, made a short circuit on the USB). A cheapo notebook is likely to use the cheapest (read: parts that not necessarily can stand even 0.5 Ampers) parts.
[General Topics] Menneisyys:
1, you're pretty fortunate your notebook battery is still going strong. I've never seen a notebook battery SO good - the situation you've described doesn't even seem to adhere to the laws of chemistry (that is, after two years, a Li-Ion battery kept consistently at 100% charging level is bound to lose at least 20% of its original capacity, independent of the usage).

2, the human vs. battery comparison, IMHO, isn't the best. Most feeding / intake specalists state one should prefer the way of "eat many times a day, but little each time" - that is, say, some 4-5 apples, tomatoes, cucumbers etc. a day, say, one (or two) every hour - at least this is what I do at work. I also refrain from eating a lot at lunchtime - I, generally, eat a quarter portion, and take the rest with me, continuously eating it later say, a bit every hours. This surely won't result in getting fat - on the contrary. If, of course, you don't keep your stomach at 100% load level :)
[General Topics] lukeap69:
nice tip on eating... ;)
[General Topics] LGB:
I wrote specifically that it was not proof or anything, it just seems that some things are similar. My laptop batter has probably lost a little, but the way I have treated it, it still works after 4 years, where collegues/friends a long time ago would have had to get new batteries. I did not make specific measurements, but maybe a new battery would last me around 2.5 hours instead of two, but I have seen batteries that last 5 minutes, and they are less than 2 years old.

So what is a "good way" to kill a battery fast? I thought that stopping charging before 100% is one of the ways to kill a battery, but as soon as I see a test where it is proved that it is the other way around, I'd be happy not to have to wait for 100% before pulling the plug. But the mentioned Nokia test is only varying on when to start the recharging, not when to end it.

As for the comparison to humans ... I know they say you should eat many small meals a day, and that is great if you measure your meals precisely in calories and content. But for a normal, daily unscientific diet, many of those people I hear reiterate the "eat many but small meals to loose weight" have them selves ... weight problems. I have proven that it works (for me), I can see my weight increase when I get into periods of eating 3 or more meals a day. Same with my batteries. I can see they last a long time, where other peoples batteries die - so ... why does it work then?
[General Topics] Jacina:
I know this is kind of an old post (hah) but just an update about Li-Ion batteries:

The final 5-10% of charging is the part that does the most "wear and tear" of the whole charge process, this is the reason IBM (now Lenovo) Thinkpads don't charge the final bit all the time. So avoid *topping off* when charging. If done within the normal charging it shouldn't be a problem.

Simple Guidelines (taken from: http://www.batteryuniversity.com/parttwo-34.htm)

* Avoid frequent full discharges because this puts additional strain on the battery. Several partial discharges with frequent recharges are better for lithium-ion than one deep one. Recharging a partially charged lithium-ion does not cause harm because there is no memory. (In this respect, lithium-ion differs from nickel-based batteries.) Short battery life in a laptop is mainly cause by heat rather than charge / discharge patterns.

* Batteries with fuel gauge (laptops) should be calibrated by applying a deliberate full discharge once every 30 charges. Running the pack down in the equipment does this. If ignored, the fuel gauge will become increasingly less accurate and in some cases cut off the device prematurely.

* Keep the lithium-ion battery cool. Avoid a hot car. For prolonged storage, keep the battery at a 40% charge level.

* Consider removing the battery from a laptop when running on fixed power. (Some laptop manufacturers are concerned about dust and moisture accumulating inside the battery casing.)

* Avoid purchasing spare lithium-ion batteries for later use. Observe manufacturing dates. Do not buy old stock, even if sold at clearance prices.

* If you have a spare lithium-ion battery, use one to the fullest and keep the other cool by placing it in the refrigerator. Do not freeze the battery. For best results, store the battery at 40% state-of-charge.
[General Topics] speakerphone:
does that mean if you have two batteries, you should only use one most of the time and keep the other one in storage?

I would have thought it would be better to alternate between the two every week or something. Nothing worse than having the battery in storage for a few months and then when you actually need it on a trip you find that it only has 50% capacity
[General Topics] Jacina:
Actually the article says that you should "store" batteries at 40% :P if you're keeping one as a backup, I think the best option would be to alternate them. Keeping one stored at 100% actually causes it to lose its charge FASTER than one stored at 40% :)
[General Topics] gibs:
FYI : as you are charging/discharging your battery, the hysteresis threshold (this is called like this in electronic) is decreasing, when it's new it still at 100% then 99%,98%,97% etc

This is the reason why sometimes when you think your battery is fully loaded, his load stops at the hysteresis threshold.

In some case it's possible to raise this hysteresis threshold (when the battery is recent). and to retrieve the full charge.

Here is a tips that I use since some years (my ipaq 3660)

When your device show your battery 100% loaded (of course it's not) the LED light should go off. if you unplug your power AC, and plug it back, and if you notice that your device is loading a few seconds (3-5 sec) then you are raising the hysteresis threshold. of course not to 100%, but a little.

now, put a dvd movie, sit down, and repeat the tips as much as the light doesn't show the device is charging a few seconds. I mean is your battery is full loaded then when you plug back the power ac it should not charge again. so your hysteresis threshold is probably at 100% and your battery should work has a new one.

sorry if my english isn't good enough for this contrib.

Introduction:

After the v2.0 release, @Olivier, @a-st and I decided to make it for Z3+ single and dual SIM. We hope you'll enjoy it!

Features and Commit History:

Check 2nd Post!

Installation Instruction:

THIS DOES ONLY WORK ON UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER!

You can either flash the provided boot.img via fastboot, or flash the zip in recovery.

Additional Information:

The Kernel is underclocked by default. Both Cluster are underclocked to 1,344/1,536 GHz respectively, resulting into HUGE Temperature improvements. However, due to public demand, V2 features the ability to disable the underclock (in case you need to make some baked Eggs real quick, whatever). All you need to do is run this code after boot (Kernel Adiutor has the abilty to execute scripts at startup, just a reminder).

echo "0:4294967295 1:4294967295 2:4294967295 3:4294967295 4:4294967295 5:4294967295 6:4294967295 7:4294967295" > /sys/module/msm_performance/parameters/max_cpu_freq

What it effectively does, is resetting the max clock limit for each core to the default (unset) values, allowing you to set whatever frequency (from the ones available ofc) you want.

My E6533 got in bootloop.

Edit: waited for recovery to flash supersu and xposed. Since twrp wasn't there, so it bootlooped. Will try again. Error was on my end.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Original Android Development] airlessproject:
- .253 stock ROM?

- where does it hang, kernel logo or bootanimation?

- which file did you flash?

- did you have xposed or supersu installed before? if yes, did you reinstall them after flashing the kernel?
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Original Android Development] Trilliard:
Nice to have more options with another Kernel. Was waiting for a Kernel which is underclocked by default. Flashing Kernel+SuperSu 2.76+Systeless Xposed 85.7 went fine (E6553+.253). After that i had to flash twrp to "recovery" partition, FOTA-twrp doesnt boot. Looks really good for the first few minutes.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Original Android Development] airlessproject:
hey buddy thanks for the nice words, I hope you'll enjoy the kernel.

btw the "recovery" partition is an alias for FOTAKernel afaik, so I don't quite get "FOTA-twrp doesnt boot", tho I must admit I don't know what's FOTA-twrp :)

I mean as you said, I too flashed twrp to recovery and it works with volume up on the purple led just as it should..
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Original Android Development] Trilliard:
Well i´m not that into recoverys with sony devices as this is my first and there seems to be a difference between flashing twrp from pc to "recovery" and flashing twrp to FOTA Kernel like this. I dont know if it is the same at the end, but some Kernels have twrp included, some not. If you change the Kernel you cant use twrp without flashing it new. I allways had htc devices before and you only flash twrp once and it´s there allways and forever xD. After flashing your Kernel it recognizes my TWRP in FOTAKernel, yellow led went on and changed to purple after pushing vol- but it doesnt boot, just purple led for two minutes after that i rebooted. As i said just flashed it to recovery and everything is working fine.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Original Android Development] airlessproject:
I think these two methods should have the exact same result at the end, but I may be mistaken

it should be vol+ I think, vol- is usually for the in-kernel recovery (from my experience with Xperia Z)..

anyway for me it worked after I reflashed the kernel for testing purposes, it entered twrp when I press vol+ (didn't try vol- tho)

also yes, this kernel doesn't include twrp in itself so you'd have to either use the one in FOTAKernel/"recovery"
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Original Android Development] Misanful:

[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Original Android Development] Trilliard:
I think it´s too early to say something definitive but it looks really good, temperature is a little bit lower than with Stock or any other Kernel. I dont see any differences for the perfermance between this and Stock or AndroPlus, so far no laggs or bootloops or other problems.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Original Android Development] bjowol:

[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Original Android Development] Trilliard:
No, just flashed kernel, su, xposed and twrp and thats it. But usually testing a new kernel takes a few days, thats all first impression.
