[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lukish_bochi:
Hi

I've been replacing my 3 years old battery in my Moto G LTE and I have an issue that new battery cant charge. I guess deep discharge protection was activated.

If phone is off and I connect charger, screen with 0% battery shows up. And it run in cycle = phone switch on, 0% screen, phone switch off, ....

And if I first turn the phone on, ROM is loaded, charging flash appears in notification area, but battery is still 0% or it flashes to 1%, but drops again to 0%.

Could anyone help?

Battery connector pins (on FFC) layout would be of great help as well.

Hi,

Is anyone having sensor battery drain issue with WhatsApp?

This during my sleep where the sensor is on 100%.

Not sure how to turn it off.

I excluded WhatsApp in the whitelist for battery monitor.

Wondering if anyone have similar issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] km8j:
Yes. I posted this to another thread and got no responses. I wound up uninstalling. There is no reason for this. Their support was useless
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] pete4k:
Kill the whatsup? Do you really need to get updates while sleeping? Are there any settings, how often program updates? Any program that misbehaves like this gets deleted from my phone: either it's broken/not working properly or it's the way it works, not sure which is worse.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] blue-spiderfire:
I have this drain, too. BBS says Sensor: invensense Accelerometer(1), wakeup=false, Time: xxh xxm. In another thread someone suggests that this drain is related to the usage of whatsapp web. I use wa web a lot, but the drain continues even if I don't use it and even when I kill and restart whatsapp. Why does wa need the Acceleromter?

edit:

With the latest WA version (2.17.190) the high battery drain doesn't occur anymore. It seems the problem is solved.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Yukicore:
Isn't the case for me. I have OnePlus 3T, with the WA version you mentioned above, and I still have this issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] km8j:

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] linom:
No help from Whatsapp support. Uninstalled and reinstalled, same issue. Reset the phone, the issue still persists. I need Whatsapp for my daily work so can't afford to remove it. I hope GSAM/BBS are reporting it correctly. Will have to wait for another update and keeping fingers crossed they solve this bug.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] NahuelMS:
Anything off this? The problem still persist, the app uses the acelerometer like crazy in my moto x style.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] chillmeow:
I stop caring and just use the phone as it is.

Still getting 6 hrs of sot.

Some apps are using the sensor and I bet if we disable them the battery life will improve.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] linom:
I dont see the drain anymore. Did you update Whatsapp?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] demzzy:
I'm getting the drain atm... phone was at 88% last night.. got up this am and it was 55% and WhatsApp was using 23% above everything else..
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] dsjd:
I have the same issue...is there anyway to deny permission to whatsapp for sensor usage?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] de.er:
Anyone managed to solve this one? It's really annoying. Thinking about it, the only (reasonable) reason for Whatsapp to use acceletometer would be the camera, right? Since I never use Whatsapp's camera I just disabled the camera service for whatsapp and blocked Whatsapp from using phone's camera in the Privacy Guard settings, will see if that changes anything - so far this seems to be working.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] linom:
Put whatsapp to sleep, go to Apps->Special access--> Optimize Battery usage and enable Whatsapp here. Then go to device maintenance, remove it from 'unmonitored apps' if present and add to 'always sleeping' apps. Try this for a day and check BBS for wakelocks. Also you might want to check partial wakelocks when 'screen off' and not 'since charged'. You may miss messages for a day or two but its worth the effort

[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RobertAUT:
Hello,

after flashing recovery with latest TWRP (twrp-3.1.0-0-bullhead - md5 checked), I restarted the bootloader (fastboot restart-bootloader)

But from that point on, the phone only showed a black screen. it still shows in fastboot devices and boots, possibly to the pin-check. power volume down makes a screen capture sound there.

No screen in bootloader, no screen on boot. Only thing that seems to happen is the backlight switching.

Tried to restore factory defaults with the flash all bat from the stock builds, fastloader -w and the flash stock & unroot option from latest nexus root toolkit.

Does anyone have any other idea what I can try?

thanks in advance
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tulsadiver:
I've never seen anyone restart the bootloader. Reboot but not restart. Hopefully they are the same but I have not a clue as to what that does to your phone after flashing recovery. For future reference after flashing recovery, boot into recovery, once in recovery, I always reboot to recovery again, then flash supersu.

I'm glad you have fastboot still. You could try this, flash_all again. Afterwards, boot into TWRP (don't install) do a factory reset and then reboot. Make sure your flash-all is installing everything. I always flash mine one at a time. Good luck
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RobertAUT:
Thank you for the reply. I will try a flash all with TWRP again.

as for the restart - i just looked it up - it was a reboot-bootloader command. Misspelled there.

When i want to off the screen while on VOIP, i push the power button (right upper side), it will push the phone into sleep mode to off the screen, which will conserve more power while on VOIP.

But as soon as i do that, i get disconnected from wifi in sleep mode.. how do i enable wifi while still in sleep mode?

Please please advice me what i should do..

[SuperSU] droidvoider:
I need an sepolicy that doesn't exceed the size of my current /sepolicy so that I may inject it using dirtycow. (dirtycow patches files that exist but it can't alter size).. The only solution I can imagine is compiling them on my own...

Q. Does anyone know where I can download the sepolicy source files ending in .te that allows su? I can compile them using aosp source and use awesome python based tools on it but I need a great starting point.. (it is not as simple as deleting the neverallow and adding an allow)

I would be grateful for any help given even the most subtle pointers on how to get selinux permissive.
[SuperSU] Delgoth:
One way to potentially get dirtycow to actually replace files in memory instead of letting them die when the device reboots, is to patch a file and have it's size remain exactly as it was. Like you said.

If you remember some of my PM's from a few months back I did mention it then as well. Having the file sizes differ like they do, is actually part of what causes the system panic in the first place.

This is why when patching with dirty cow, lets say the "build.prop" file, if we remove a character from the prop file and fail to add another character back, the file size will differ. Add lines to the prop file, and the file size will differ.

My best theory on the whole thing is change a couple lines of the text and keep the same character count throughout.

If you want to change the build type from "user" to "userdebug" we will have to find 5 characters to remove from the build.prop to make up for the fact that we are adding the five character word 'debug'. The best bet here would be to try and shorten a commented line close by to keep the character count in the file the same.

But at the same time, if we are trying to shorten/remove lines from that build.prop file to make the project work, we may then need to add useless comment lines to make up all the characters we deleted with our patch.

It is possible to dump the dirtycow memory back to disk by mounting the system partition R/W, AFTER we have made the patches. I've read that mounting the system partition RW will actually dump memory back to disk.

A driver for the whole platform was even supposedly included in mainline linux, only to be dropped later.

And last but not least, Silicon Image's 9244 transmitter: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9987269/

Freshly accepted upstream just days ago.

That's usually only a small part of the equation, but afaiu the committer is a samsung frigging employee working on HDMI functionality for an exynos4210 dev board.

Which, if it didn't, should really stir you.
