[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] kosidroid:
Hey Guys,

for about a week now I am experiencing a huge battery drain which seems to be caused by Bluetooth (bluedroid_timer).

I got my OP3 since release and never turned off Bluetooth, was activated all day long without any issue and no battery drain. Then suddenly last week I noticed that my battery life went down way faster than before (it was almost 2 days before, then suddenly only about 20hrs if at all).

I checked recently installed apps but none caused that drain. Checking gsam + wakelock detector both say bluedroid_timer keeps the phone awake and is draining battery. As soon as I turn off bluetooth the battery life returns to normal, so for now I just keep it off which is of course not a real solution as I need bluetooth while driving or at home for music...

Was reading through a lot of threads and it seems to be a well known issue, but couldnt find a solution yet.

What I tried so far:

- uninstall all recent apps

- delete system + dalvic cache in recovery

- delete bluetooth data / removed all existing bluetooth connections

- some other stuff that didnt work...

Anyone knows a fix for this? I would love to prevent doing a fresh flash (or factory reset) and starting from scratch...

Thanks a lot!!

Hello guys, can you help me with this.

This morning my moto x play just showdown in 1 second on my pocket. I have like 90% chargue left so i have worried.

Then i try to power on, and no luck.

When i get home, conect the charguer and only shows for 2 seconds the first charging animation (with a flash image, not percent)

So, i try to power on with the charguer and it works, but now the battery says 0% and no up.

In the morning it works well and i take care of my phone .

in 1 chance i can see it recognize the battery and says 95%, but 1 sec later the phone shutdown.

So i think somehow my battery disconnect or something.

Any ideas?

Hi,

Every time I restart my phone after enabling the USB debugging option under Developer options on my Moto E, the USB DEbugging option gets turned off. How can I keep it enabled.

I suspect that it doesn't let me perform adb devices and fastboot devices on my phone when I connect it via USB after restarting the phone in Fastboot mode.

Android 4.4.2

SN-N900P

Sprint

Had to factory reset and when it came to making a new or existing gmail account, I could not connect to the servers. Also my phone doesnt have the play store by default, or play services.

The message I get when trying to use an existing account or setting up a new one is "There was a problem communicating with Google servers"

When I went to install them, I keep getting "stopped working" messages for google services.

Instead of seeing a cant connect to servers message, now it just gets stuck infinitely saying "checking to see if username is taken" or "signing in"

WHAT THE HELL

Its a factory reset! I need many apps for work. Damn man. How can factory reset not just take everything back to when I first bought it? How can the two most important things not be available by default?

This is so frustrating.

Hey buddy power down your phone and then press a combination of 'power button+ home button+ volume up button' and you could have entered recovery mode. From here press home button if you don't see options then use volume keys to scroll through options and home key to select. Then choose factory reset and confirm with the yes option. This will work and you will be free

I've got an annoying problem with Bluetooth on my Kaiser. I'm currently using Motorola S9 headphones, I paired them with Kaiser for the first time and everything was working perfectly but whenever I turn Bluetooth on my phone off or pair the headphones to another device I cannot connect to tytn again. I have to delete partnership with headphones on TYTNII and then pair them again to be able to use the headphones. Everything is all right when I turn off the headphones and then turn them on again...connection is established automatically. The problem occurs only when Bluetooth on tytn was turned off or the headphones were used with another device. Is there a solution to this problem?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] jgermuga:
I've had some BT connecton problems too. I have the SonyDR-BT21Gs and if I pair them with something else, the only way I can get them to connect again is to initiate a phone call. Not sure why, but once the Hands Free protocol connects, the Wireless Stereo protocol also starts working. May or may not help you, though. FWIW, I also have the S9s and have had no problems with them, but I use them only with the phone while working out, so they may fall suffer under the same scenario as I described for the Sonys
[XDA Assist] prahladyeri:
There are a plethora of apps on the PlayStore that claim to actually "resize" your eMMC partitions. How well do they work? Can you just install it and change your say internal partition from 500MB to 1GB?

To the best of my knowledge, partition tables are kept well hidden and behind lots of complexities on various devices. The repartitioning methods are different on each device and too complex to try out (I know many on the MIUI forum who ended up bricking their devices or damaging their motherboards while trying to repartition).

Then how do these partition apps work?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+] TGxLEGENDz:
hi my phone has recently had charging issues. i don"t think it is the cable as i have tried many cables and it does the same thing with all of them. Basically what it does is that it will stop charging for an instant, and then it will continue to charge. like there is a broken connection or a short. the weird thing is that i can start charging my phone just fine and set it on a table and without touching it or anything moving it at all it will do this. Some times it will stop charging up to 10 times per second. and my phone vibrates like crazy. could this be a software issue? Or is it almost definitely a hardware issue
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+] csturgeon80:
I unfortunately experienced a similar issue which eventually resulted in my being forced to resort to Samsung's factory warranty...not once but twice...turned out being a intermittent short within my factory samsung charging cable..basically heated the phone internally eventually melting the circuit to the rear camera. After troubleshooting the cause after receiving phone number 3, I determined that any use while charging taxed the transformer causing it to heat up severely which over time damaged the cable and eventually killing the cam circuit... one way to test yours would be to go into settings, battery, and disable (fast charge)... if problem goes away, replace your charger/cables for equipment. if it remains, it most likely damaged the charging circuit (resistance usually makes it intermittent preceding complete failure.).any other cable will work and for the transformer. Any 5.0vdc at 2000mah will work for normal charging if using fast charge you need one that supports the technology (look for "adaptive fast charging label) throttles voltage up to 9vdc while slightly reducing the current...

as a final note: if you don't wanna replace your phone every few weeks, I strongly recommend using fast charge mode with your device powered off... Samsung engineers seriously dropped the ball calculating the current /heat.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+] phiftyopz:
That's weird... I've never had any problems using fast charging mode on my phone, nor have I had that charging problem that the OP is experiencing. I guess I got lucky with my device. It's horrible how rushed Samsung was getting this phone out on the market...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+] csturgeon80:
Granted, probably didn't help usually having memory intensive games and apps running in the background while charging but like you said "rushed"...I figure if I purchase a product with fast charging...it should be capable of doing exactly that with no "conditions" other than environmental ie:leaving in a hot car...
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zimcommando:
Hello all,

Just having an issue with my Z3 compact. The wifi keeps connecting and disconnecting every few seconds. This is a new development and it has never done this in the two years I've owned it. It finds the networks, connects and then promptly disconnects after a few seconds and then starts to look for networks once again.

Here are a few things I've already tried....

I have tested the same WiFi network with my S7 and laptop and they are stable on this network.

I have tried a different WiFi network with the same results

I have downgraded to a previous TWRP backup of my ROM when the phone was still stable.

I have changed the ROM completely with a factory reset and new custom ROM flash

None of the above has worked so far so not sure what has happened and if this is a possible hardware failure of the modem? Is there a modem file that could possibly be flashed?

Thanks for the help.

Xperia X Performance (F8132) Accelerometer failure & Screen Auto-rotate irresponsive

Hi All,

I got an issue bothering me since I bought Xperia X Perfomance (F8132) Mid June.

The auto rotate function failed after a while but everything goes fine after reboot.

When it fails, I use "Xperia Service Menu" -> "Service Tests" -> "Accelerometer",

then all X,Y,Z are zero and the ball just sticks and freezes at mid.

I bought from Taiwan and I can find 15 more people having the same symptom with me on 2 forums

( http://mobile01.com and http://gamer.com.tw ).

Hence I don't think it's only me and it's a common issue or common yield problem for Xperia X Perfomance.

I post here because I'd like to find more people with the same issue and raise the attention of SONY in order to find the root cause (i guess it's either over-heat causes this or accelerometer yield issue) and give a patch.

Now I'm using a APP "Rotation Control" to workaround this, but all photos cannot records correct orientation data and no auto-rotate is kinda inconvenient.

For a flag-ship and high-priced cellphone for SONY this year, it is very disappointing to me. :crying:

Version: 35.0.A.1.227 and 35.0.A.1.238 both occur
[Sony Xperia X Performance Questions & Answers] DiLeon:
I also have that problem. No more auto-rotation after a while (1-2 days) . Only a reboot fixes that :(
[Sony Xperia X Performance Questions & Answers] huangjs:
Thank you for letting us know.

It shows it's not a regional FW issue but a global HW or FW one.

I wonder if SONY knowing this. If not, we need to address this and push SONY to work it around.

And if it is not workaroundable, SONY will have a big problem.

[Sony Xperia X Performance Questions & Answers] avout:
Can you specify "messed up"? I've had issues with the touch screen also, mostly that it registers a tap while I'm scrolling resulting in involuntary tapping on links. Also it often takes a while to start scrolling, as if the screen has a hard time recognising the swipe.

I'm from Hong Kong, the accelerometer and its auto-rotation of my x performance has the same problem that it won't work until i reboot my phone.

I dont think that is caused by a app crashing when the problems occuring in all around the world.

Gyroscope/Auto-Rotation Issue

Hey everyone,

I'm also having this same issue, but only since the most recent update from late September. When trying to make a pic display as fullscreen by rotating the phone, nothing happens, unless I reboot the phone. Then within day or two, it starts happening again. When I go to camera it loads up and STAYS in landscape mode, no matter what I do, even closing it out and clearing out the cache & force stopping it then reactivating it. It seems like a software issue that Sony needs to address PRONTO!

It appears another thread here on XDA is dealing with the same issue. I tried shenlong85's idea and it seems to have fixed the issue, but I need another day or so to make sure. If you don't hear from me by Sunday (10/23), assume it's been fixed. Hopefully the Nougat update we're all about to get any day now will permanently fix it!
[Sony Xperia X Performance Questions & Answers] shenlong85:
The memory uninstall updates only prolong the issues. Seems like the firmware issue earlier on.

Nougat... When are u coming?
[Sony Xperia X Performance Questions & Answers] RockStar2005:
Well, we'll see. I am giving my XP 'til Sunday........if no more auto-rotate issues by then, then I will consider your idea to be gold. lol Of course, once we get Nougat, I'm hoping it will ensure that the issue never comes back period. As of this time, the issue has NOT returned.
[Sony Xperia X Performance Questions & Answers] Stoj77:
I bought my Xperia X Performance from Kogan who sells imports in Australia from Asia and I have the exact same issues with my orientation and touchscreen. However my jumpy touchscreen only seems to occur while charging.
[Sony Xperia X Performance Questions & Answers] RockStar2005:
I tried shenlong85's idea, but less than 24 hours after trying it, I switched my phone from Portrait to Landscape to view a 16:9 widescreen pic I had in my Album, and it WOULD not auto-rotate the pic. So unfortunately this "trick" doesn't work either.

Just have to hope Sony includes a fix with the Nougat update we're about to get any day now from them.
[Sony Xperia X Performance Questions & Answers] RockStar2005:
I'm noticing now too that once the Auto-Rotate function stops working, so does Smart Call Handling. Have to swipe screen once again to take calls. Hurry up Nougat!! lol
[Sony Xperia X Performance Questions & Answers] SpencerElliott:
I'm having the same issue and the only help I'm getting from Sony support is to factory reset my device :\ I'm hoping Nougat makes it's way to our devices soon. I really like this phone and this is a pretty big issue to have.
[Sony Xperia X Performance Questions & Answers] RockStar2005:
I agree Spencer. And yes Sony Mobile told me the same thing. I'll do a repair (which yes, includes a factory reset) only IF Nougat doesn't fix it. They say we're getting it "in or close to October", so I'm guessing it's gotta be coming any day now. Hopefully they include a fix with Nougat though and I don't have to do that. Getting tired of this BS with Sony. My Z3 had an issue where if I turned on Stamina Mode, it would 1) mess with my MMS (group/pic/video) text messages.........you don't know how many times I had to ask ppl to resend those to me and how much that sucked lol 2) Cause a "random" battery drain. Only fix was a factory reset. I FINALLY got wise and realized it was SM and kept it off. Found a great app called 360 Hibernation Master that did what SM was supposed to do but better, MINUS the buggy BS. But OF COURSE it doesn't work on any X series phone (at least not my XP), so I'm stuck with SM now. At least Sony Mobile FINALLY fixed that bug with SM so that's not an issue anymore. lol

It is a big issue, and it makes me not want to keep buying their phones.
[Sony Xperia X Performance Questions & Answers] RockStar2005:
Looks like a fix is officially coming!

Sounds like it will be separate from the Nougat update then. At least they're doing something about it and not a year later. lol
