I'm using an Lte sim, my area is covered with Lte network. When using stock rom and other custom rom it only have auto connect Lte/3g option, everytime i turn on mobile data it only connects to h+. Now i'm on nemesis rom, it has "Lte only" option but it can't find Lte signal/data. Already tried my Lte sim to other Lte device and it connects to Lte signal/data. What seems to be the problem with my device? Anyway to fixed this?

[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] GuestD0139:
Hi,

I installed an unofficial Android 7 Nougat ROM and after unsuccesfull downgrade to Android 6 I accidentally erased OS. I thought it could be repaired from TWRP, so I tried to flash it, but I'm such a moron and erased it too. 3 button method didn't work for me, because of wrong update.app in dload folder (I downloaded tons of them). Last option was to connect phone to PC and do it from fastboot. When I managed how to access fastboot and unlock bootloader, phone automatically rebooted into Error Mode. From that moment I cannot do anything. If the phone is powered, it always get into this error (doesn't respond to any button such as bootloader, fastboot etc.).

I own Huawei P9 Lite Dual SIM (European L21 verison).

As a new user I'm not able to post any outside link, so the Error Mode writes

Error!

Func NO: 11 (recovery image)

Func NO: 2 (load failed!)

Does anyone know way how to get me out of this hell? Thank you

Update: I noticed that when the phone is fully discharged it can be booted into bootloader warning screen for a while.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mrvanx:
Hey people,

following on from artisticcheese's thread about battery consumption Ive performed a few tests on some different radio versions to see what the actual difference in battery consumption is.

Right now (as of 16-01-2008) I recommend the following radios:

1.47.30.10 with an overall score of 1.22 (the highest in the test)

or

1.54.30.10 with an overall score of 1.21 (2nd place).

Remember people, if you are planning on changing your radio version, flash hardspl, and make sure nothing is running which will interrupt the flash process. The radio flash is still the most risky of all flash processes and it is possible to kill the device so be sure before you flash. In doing these tests I performed over 10 radio flashes in a day and i made usre nothing CPU intensive was running on the PC and that i wasnt going to unplug the USB by accident etc...

-------------------------------------

Test Run 16-10-08:

Before running these tests the phone was soft reset, ALL today plugins shut off (apart from x button), internet explorer for downloding and acbPowerMeter for power monitoring.

All tests again running on WM6 "V3 cabb'd III".

This set of tests is the following:

Test 1: GSM mode, backlight off, downloading for 5 minutes.

Test 2: UMTS mode, backlight off, downloading for 5 minutes.

The results vary and a pattern ive noticed is radio versions 1.47.30.10 and 1.54.30.10 seem to have the same behaviour in GSM modes, perhaps the extra ".30" in the version number denotes a particular tweak or feature??

Radio_Power_Tests_16012008.zip

Enjoy.

-------------------------------------

Inital test run:

Using a freshly flashed version of my "V3 cabb'd" ROM which is a tweaked version of pandora naked 6 3.60 ROM with nothing installed so a lean install and using acbPowerMeter I ran the following tests on each radio rom:

Test 1: Backlight off, automatic standby disabled, all processes stopped using start>settings>system>memory. GSM only and phone left on idle.

10 minutes and average current consumption recorded.

Test 2: Same as test 2 , UMTS only.

Ive taken a screenshot of the data with magicss and normalised the results so the earliest radio version tested is the baseline score.

The results of the first test are in the attached spreadsheet and screenshots.

Conclusions:

The results show that overall the differences are neglegable for these tests, however I still believe there is a major difference in practice. So the next load of tests I propose will test the power consumption with data connection attached. Somehow I want to test during a call or download since the HSDPA power consumption is likely to be a BIG number.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Voldemort:
how comes you didnt test the latest radio versions? *waits for more results*

nice idea though
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mrvanx:
each test involves flashing a new radio (20 mins-ish) and two ten minute test runs...I need to use my Tytn today so can probably try the other radios later on, it takes a fair ammount of time for each one so i only went from the ground (1.43.00.00) to the one currently on my device (1.47.30.10) last night. I abandoned doing the later ones until ive figured out a worthwhile test to run for ALL versions. Ive presented my findings so far to show that essentially the 4 versions i tried are identical under idle conditions...not really a true to life test.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kipe:
..big thanks to u bro! ..awesome work as usual.. :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Wam7:
Yeah, I think it will be the 3G call and HSDPA tests where the benefit of testing will be found.

My own tests show little difference in the idle power consumption.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] PaY87:
I made very good experience with 1.41.00.10.

Good signal and low power consumption! ;)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ethos84:
I've changed from 1.54 to 1.48 and I can honestly say my phone goes another day or two without charging!!!!!!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mrvanx:
Im gonna do some more tests tonight on the new format probably with some sort of download running (web n walk is usefull hehe).

So i'll post some more results later on if i can.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Dr.Kanawati:
The best radio rom I've ever used

I tried many different radio roms for my Jasjam, believe me the best radio rom I've used regarding to power usage and signal is 1.46.00.11.

Even when using UMTS and 3G, in other radio roms; when connecting to internet with my laptop, I mean using Jasjam as access point to internet , the battery drains fast even if the Jasjam is connected to charger. but in this radio rom, when the charger is on, the battery stays stable and the Imate can also get charged. I know that this radio rom is designed for Trinity which is GPS enabled, but I am telling my experience. THANKS
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CRCinAU:
For your testing goodness, here are pretty much all the radio roms I have ever come across.

http://www.crc.id.au/files/xda/Radio_Roms/

They are in .nb format - so you'll need to use Duttys tool to get them into .nbh files.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Starfury:
The power consumption is definately related to voice call usage.

My normal usage in a day means I use about 50 - 80% of my battery.

Whilst away in Tenerife I used my phone exactly the same but without making voice calls and I only used 50% after 3 -4 days.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CRCinAU:
This is certainly true. I was away in a place with no mobile coverage (no GSM or UTMS) and using the device for GPS navigation only I was able to get 2-3 full days out of the standard battery.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Starfury:
Both threads you have posted in have shown you the program that is to be used. Why do you keep asking?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Wam7:
Experienced exactly the same thing when I was in Majorca. Even though I did use the phone a lot for sending as MMS (as that was free for me) I still got more usage out of the phone in Majorca if I had done pretty much the same usage pattern over here (UK) and that is because I suspect there transmitters put out a stronger signal, which means the phone has to 'work' less to get a stronger signal.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] matar:
Sorry for double posting, but I read that those tools doesn't show the correct consumption because they needs power themselves and therefore distort the result... Maybe somebody can confirm this? Thank You.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
A very good point. I've known the radio kicks up the power when you have a low signal, and if it's lost - I turn off the radio until I get back to a good area or it really kills the battery fast.

Just thinking here, but to add another level of complexity to the testing - while statically measuring power drain without moving the device will give repeatable results, could a radio power draw "react" differently to signal strength variations, and not be as "efficient" compared to others while on the move (typical usage)?

For example, if the signal goes above 50db (no idea if I'm even using the correct scale here ;)) it incrementally increases power by 20% for 10 seconds each until an "acceptable" signal level is reached. Once this is achieved, will it reduce back down - say you came around a building an now have a better signal? How long will that take? Will some radios respond more rapidly than others - optimizing power usage vs signal strength?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CRCinAU:
Dammit Matt! Now you've really got me thinking :P

In a bit of the background on this, the GSM/UTMS protocol allows the base station to tell the mobile to increase or decrease the transmit power of the phone. This allows it to tune the performance of the phones radio to get the optimum signal level at the cell site. It also helps a heap in deciding what cell towers to jump between and all the critical handoff levels and names.

Much more info can be found:

http://www.patentstorm.us/patents/5357513-description.html

There's a lovely paper about it all here - but I don't want to pay for it :P

http://www.actapress.com/PaperInfo.aspx?PaperID=18185&reason=500
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] tonyb15re:
power useage is down to lots of different factors, one of the main culprits is use of HSDPA/3G and it bounsing up and down between it and GSM when the local Cell doesnt support it or has a weak signal.

I can't believe the statement made above about the battery being used quicker when you talk, of course its going to drain quicker, its permanently transmitting for gods sake ;)

It also depends on how strong the signal to the nearest cell/Base Station is, if its a week signal then the radio/phone will bounce around to find a stronger one, I believe typically a phone will register with up to 3 base stations to enable you to auto switch between cells when you move.

if you're really bored and want to dig into how GSM works heres a starter for 10

http://www.fci-cu.edu.eg/INFOS2005/presentation/GSM_Concepts.pdf

If you want to test weak signals stick your phone in a tin box, assuming this doesnt kill the signal totally then the phone should start ramping up its power output and sucking the battery dry quicker.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Starfury:
My point was made in reference to the testing of the phone to see what uses the most battery and indicating that we should direct our testing at the phone application over any others.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mrvanx:
OK ive devised the following tests which would probably replace the idle ones:

Test 1: Phone on, gsm mode, gprs attached........idling. 5 minutes

Test 2: Phone on, gsm mode, gprs attached and downloading. 5 minutes

Test 3: Phone on, umts mode, as Test 1.

Test 4: Phone on, umts mode, as Test 2.

and if people think its a good idea:

Test 5: Phone on, HSDPA mode, as Test 1.

Test 6: Phone on, HSDPA mode, as Test 2.

Im trying to figure out a set of files to download, tried a few ideas last night....anybody got some webspace to download a zip file of a fairly large size (75MB + )??
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] tonyb15re:
Anything that keeps an open voice or data connection should flatten the battery pretty quickly, simply opening a browser won't do this, as you alluded to above you will need to either upload or download something for a long enough period for it to make sense. other option is to open a voice call and leave it going but unless you're on a free voice plan I wouldn't want to recommend that ;).
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Starfury:
Can you tell me what is adjustable regarding voice calls that can reduce battery usage. Call quality, transceiver power, call volume, etc
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mrvanx:
At the moment i use GSM only since HSDPA kicks in with tmobile when activesync does its stuff over the data connection...thats a serious power drainer. However hopefully the tests with these radios should provide us with some more insight into how much battery each version uses (relative) and then we can draw our own conclusion?

At the moment since your on orange (GSM 1800) id go into phone option>band and switch to GSM and GSM900/1800 + UMTS 2100.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] 23ICEMAN23:
Mmm

Well heres my experience for my dopod 838 pro

ive heard that your phones last for 2-4 days while taking phone calls.

i've called for around 89mins straight on the phone and after that it starts to say that im low battery is this correct? talking 89mins straight drain my battery?

and after a long chat on the mobile phone my phone starts to heat up then lose its connection making me restart my mobile to call again.

my radio is 1.54.00.10

i charge my phone every night. is that the reason my phone battery drains quickly?

most of the radios that are good are the 1.41-1.46 but what is the best radio..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Starfury:
Will that still allow me to use HSDPA?

Also Off topic a sec, do you know what the Contacts exe is called as I want to set it as a TouchFlo gesture but I'll be buggered if I can find the program to run it.

Ta
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mrvanx:
No HSDPA will only work in UMTS mode. Its probably the reason you use your battery so quickly...its a power hog.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mrvanx:
OK im gonna get some useable results to you lot tomorrow.

Already tested on my current radio version (1.47.30.10).
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] PaY87:
Dude you did a good job yet. The only thing I noticed was that here in Germany 1.5x ROMs are very unstable with 3G data connection. They also use a lot of power.. :o
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Starfury:
You said "At the moment since your on orange (GSM 1800) id go into phone option>band and switch to GSM and GSM900/1800 + UMTS 2100."

So surely the above gives me UMTS?

Any idea about the contacts.exe seeing as you seem to be very knowledgable on WM6?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mrvanx:
Come on now dude....in the top menu you select GSM (so it ONLY works on GSM...not both GSM and UMTS)

and the bottom menu select the bands available to you. By doing this you ONLY use gsm, in the top menu select auto to use both...or WCDMA to use 3G.

Sorry i dunno about contacts.exe........contact slither2006 he might be able to help you.

@all

results coming.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Starfury:
Well its set to GSM in the top but it can still use 3G just fine.

I thought 3G HSDPA and GPRS were different data protocols/technologies and were available on either GSM or WCDMA?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mrvanx:
HSDPA is based on UMTS.

GPRS/EDGE are based on GSM.

You CANNOT use HSDPA over a GSM connection you need to have a UMTS/WCDMA connection.

Are you sure you have set it to GSM because you should only get the 'G' symbol. If you get the '3G' symbol then it is still set to either auto or WDCMA.

Do you have the comm manager with the 3G button? if so make sure the 3G button is deactivated.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] noellenchris:
Wow, awesome work. It looks like 1.47.30.10 & 1.54.30.10 are the least power hungry. After all the talk about 1.48, I would have thought that would have been the best. Thanks for all your work!

Chris:)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] patp:
Disappointing, if you rely mostly on 3G it makes little difference. Of course there's much more that could be done - it could be that some radios deal better with a weak v strong signal, or interact with other processes, or even the WM ROM versions. Did you measure the actual amount of data downloaded? It might be more bytes = more energy!!!

This is a great piece of work, thanks for all the time you've spent on it.

i always had this odd feeling about the radio 1.54.00.10...

it was the first time a newer radio version drained the batter faster than the previous one (the original radio was some 1.0X) and i noticed an improvement almost every time i upgraded it except for this last time lol

looks like my feeling wasnt that wrong

thanks mr vanx for the great job!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Starfury:
I see what has happened, if you go into the comm manager and enable 3g it changes the Settings > phone > band > type to auto instead of gsm...

I will have to leave it on auto as I need to use 3G. Whats UMTS 2100 + 850 compared to UMTS 2100?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] diezoo:

I feel this radio has a lower speed in GSM(EDGE) mode.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] niftydl:
Fantastic work!

I have been planning to do something like this for a long time, but your results are dead on. 1.47 radio locks onto 3G faster and establishes GPRS/EDGE/HSDPA faster than 1.48. This is Maryland/East Coast US -> Att/Cingular. I will watch the battery for a couple of days with regular usage, but I have no doubts in your results.
