[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] bajskorven33:
Hi!

I am having huge issues with jiayu s3. Used to talk to my friend saying it was octacore, good battery etc. Now everything is sluggish and battery, it lasts less than 6 hours. You would perhaps think that it might be my battery but I have bought 4 (!!) exernal official batteries, all are ****! FIrst I "upgraded" to this german ROM which is here and first went okay but then strangely first time ever I got malware making the phone unsuable. Then I changed to a more newer version and battery was sooooo poor. Now I flashed back to the german one and yes, it last 6 hours maximum, sometimes it just dies with 40% battery. It is also slow.

So I went back to my old phone and it runs a lot smoother but kinda sucks having this jiayu s3 that was working fine for awhile, now being **** and ive tried so many roms. Did I get a defective unit? Should I try the android 7-rom?
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] pfavayi:
It is a battery issue right.

All the original batteries for jiayu S3 are problematic. Don't buy an original jiayu s3 battery you will just have the same problem again in the short time.

I hate the same issue until I got a kompson battery.

Try it, it will work

Found while researching the 5X bootloop of DEATH.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mV8_hsua4vo

Maybe too much paste and looks like in translation .8mm copper plate was used.

Any comments regarding this relatively simple mod.
[Nexus 5X General] stifmaster81:
the square cover you used, is the same as the cutter cutter?

I bought these copper shims: http://www.ebay.com/itm/261704004472

15mmx15mmx0.3-5-8-1, think I'm going to try just putting a 0.5mm shim on the CPU with some paste, none on the screen side, I don't want the area of the screen there getting too hot - the copper itself should act as a good heatsink
[Nexus 5X General] Sinistersky:
Why? The only thing this device needs is 4 gb RAM mod. Nothing else.
[Nexus 5X General] paradoxiumwind:
because putting a copper chim on the back of the CPU that overheats is a good temporary fix until I can organize shipping my phone to china? I'm talking to cdlixucd@gmail.com in PM about it but it's hard because his english isn't very good. he says $200 without shipping for 128gb internal storage upgrade and 2gb-4gb ram upgrade.
[Nexus 5X General] crazyates:
Let me know how that goes, as I would be very interested. I love the 5x, but there are a number of limitations that are starting to peek out.

16GB storage

2GB ram

CPU is fast enough for me, but overheats and throttles

Battery lasts ~4 hours SOT

If I could upgrade to 128GB, 4GB, cool the CPU with a copper shim and some modding, and then swap my old battery for an LG G2 3,000 mah one, I could see myself using this phone for several more years!

Or at least until Android P comes out, and I get upgrade envy.
[Nexus 5X General] flatpedals:
I just finished this in the morning. Initially I got the idea from here: youtu.be/mV8_hsua4vo.

Used a 1mm thick, 15 x 15 mm copper pad that I bought locally, I couldn't get a 0.8mm one and waiting for an order from Aliexpress for such a tiny item is not my thing since our national post is a mess and it adds up like a week to an already huge delivery time.

So I sanded down the 1mm one to about probably 0.8, just enough so the board is not floating on it and the contacts for the ear piece are fine.

Removed the factory yellow pad, cut the thin foil off of the metal shield, slammed some DeepCool thermal compound that I had laying around and pieced it back together.

All I can tell you is that I can't get the CPU temp past 52°C. Tried all the trending benchmarks on the PlayStore, max brightness, streaming Play Music over bluetooth to my headphones, you name it.

That 52 is peak, doesn't stay there, at idle it ends up around 30 to 32 and some casual browsing with mid brightness goes up to around 40.

So the most is runs at when gaming or doing heavy tasks is between 40 and 50. Which is a massive improvement over stock temperatures and even better than the thermal config that I used to run (see bellow).

Worth mentioning that I'm running the extremeV4 thermal config, throttling temp at 51, EX Kernel with Heimdall_5x_v4 profile for the interactive governor.

The screen is NOT getting too hot, in fact it used to get hotter before, without the copper pad.

Sorry I don't have any photos, but I don't have another camera, just an old GoPro H3+B - useless.
[Nexus 5X General] mrgnex:
Tried this too. Didn't seem to do much though.. Tried this test and CPU didn't reach even close to 40 degrees Celsius. Weird thing was that the two faster cores quickly went offline after starting the test though..

EDIT: I used a 1 mm thick thermal pad but now notice a blue spot around the cpu. I can also see a curvature in the screen under the right lighting. Maybe the thermal pad is too thick? I figured a 1 mm pad could be squished down to 0.8 mm if it would be too thick..
[Nexus 5X General] whatislav:
I just saved mine via fastboot with a modified img but having two disabled cores bothers me. I thought about replacing the motherboard or upgrading/replacing the two cores to a new one with 4gb ram and then adding the heat sink. Do you guys think it's worth it or should I just leave it be
[Nexus 5X General] the_desaster:
Hi,

i made the mod a few days ago. i used a 0,8mm 15 x 15 mm copper pad.

It works great.

But today i used gps the first time since the mod and got a big problem. I was driving with maps und a had a few seconds gps then searching for gps then a few seconds gps and searching again.

Anyone alse noticed some problems with gps after this mod?

Or any ideas what could happend?
[Nexus 5X General] octavioromo:
I had the same issue with GPS, seems like only done encounter the issue. I just had to get a new thermal pad. Found some Arctic thermal pad that is .5mm thick and used that.

Here is a post of mine in another thread

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=75586886&postcount=26
[Nexus 5X General] the_desaster:
ok thank you. seems like not everyone got this problem.

i will try to press the backcover a bit on the mainboard next time.

if that doesnt help i try with the thermal pad or maybe a thinner copper pad.

are your temps better with the pad than original?
[Nexus 5X General] octavioromo:
I couldn't use the copper pad at all, and it wasn't a clearance issue. I tried a thinner shim and I had the same issue. Send like there is some sensor or something that gets blocked by using a metal shim. I used CPU throttling test and it said performance improved by about 10 percent or so. But in real world it's a bit better but essentially couldn't use the copper pad.
[Nexus 5X General] flatpedals:
I have the copper pad in there and I use Strava and Google Maps almost every day but never had a GPS problem.

I still believe you are encountering a problem with the antennas' pins not making contact with the board.

There just can't be any shielding or any problem from the copper pad, since the whole back of the display is a big chunk of aluminum that would mess the GPS even more if that would be the problem.
[Nexus 5X General] the_desaster:
makes sense... but than an 0.8mm copper shim seems to be to thick.

i dont used to much thermal paste...

do you know which of the pins on the backcover are for gps-antenna?

maybe i can try to improve the contact.

if that doenst work i will try an thermal pad.

[Nexus 5X General] Rojas2018:
This only works with the stock rom?
[Nexus 5X General] [GS]:
WTF :) this is a simple mod to improve cooler, hardware is not changed so it work with any rom
[Nexus 5X General] Rojas2018:
Cool!
[Nexus 5X General] Rojas2018:
Paste

Is it necessary to use thermal paste, or can I use glue?
[Nexus 5X General] flatpedals:
I just took out the copper pad because I lost all gps signal and after troubleshooting every other possible cause, I went with the "rumour" that the pad is causing interference. And oh man, it does!

I have no idea how my gps worked for like 8 months, since I got the mod in. Still, Strava was losing signal here and there, generating zig-zag lines, but I blamed it on the app.

Now everything is fine, I get signal from at least 6 fixed satellites and Strava is super stable.

I guess I'm back in line to get the bootloop now, the SoC is back running in the 70s and 80s C.

So I think you can forget about this mod unless you don't care about proper gps signal.
[Nexus 5X General] CLPose:
Don't let it be so hot! Flash this (https://xdaforums.com/nexus-5x/general/tool-bootloop-death-blod-workaround-t3819497) to disable BIG cores. It should keep your N5X below 60ºC. It would be a safe temperature to avoid bootloop. Good luck!
[Nexus 5X General] flatpedals:
Yeah, I know, I can disable the big cores in EXKM right now, but I don't want this. I'd rather suffer the performance loss after they fry, not now. Granted, if I'll be able to run the 4 cores kernel after I get the bootloop.

Anyway I'll get a Mi A2 soon and I don't really care about the 5X anymore. :)
[Nexus 5X General] AshotVantsyan:
Do all the cores stay at their frequencies? 2 big cores at 1.8GHz and 4 small cores at 1.4GHz?

The reason I'm asking is because I did the same thing on the same video you've watched, but I've got very small profit from it. I used Arctic MX-4 and 0.8mm copper pad. Also I used CPU Throttling Test from Play Store.

I'm going to try to enhance the current method with another method I've found in this forum. Will write later.
[Nexus 5X General] flatpedals:
Obviously the cores don't always clock at max freq, it depends on what you are running. Regarding the throttling, yes they were pinned at max in heavy loads because the throttling limit is pretty high at 52 and the pad was taking enough heat away so that they weren't going over the limit.

I'm not running this mod anymore because it was constantly losing GPS signal, it looks like the copper pad is a huge interference source. I'm using Strava every now and then and I need it to work properly.

Now I'm on the AOSPextented ROM with the included kernel, no other mods. It holds up fine mainly because I gave up on running any heavy tasks. Sometimes it reaches 70 to 80 deg C and it fries my skin on the fingerprint reader. I'm waiting for it to start bootlooping, but it's been going strong for close to 3 years now.

here is model details

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] jadephyre:
well, when you download a ROM Package, there usually is a textfile whithin it with Instructions on how to flash the ROM to your QTEK.

Just follow these Instructions WORD FOR WORD, do not deviate from the Instructions given and you should be good :)
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] kameswat:
tnx for the updats buddy i did flash my PPC successfully. can u tell me how to remove old software coz every time when i start my PPC a popup windows apear and sys stk not found bticon not found bla bla bla......... how to clean my PPC?? pls help me tnx in advance

regards
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] jadephyre:
Usually it's done through the Settings Menu and "Remove Programs" or something like that... although it could be that you need to do a hardreset as described in the ROM Update Infofile... that the Device is complaining about Software not being found could be due to a not formatted storage and/or registry after the Flash Process.
[Sony Xperia ZR] NDSA:
for some reason, i'm able to flash any custom rom i want, but any other file, it gives me error everytime, like gapps, xospapps, supersu, etc. i'm not so sure if the twr is corrupted or i installed one that is not compatible with my phone, but that shouldn't be the case i think, because like i said, i can install custom roms without a problem, edit: i forgot to mention, i'm unable to install gapps, x86, x64, arm, arm64
[Sony Xperia ZR] NDSA:
bump, i really need help on this, i swear i've spent over 4 entire days trying to solve this crap, unlocking/locking bootloader, supersu, rootking, etc. fastboot drivers, adb, everything, still no clue what is going on, i can't install gapps, i can't go on with the rom i installed, is freaking useless as it is, i can't even flash (overwrite) the current twrp because i need to flash with it or adb, and none are working, but just for now, i need to know, why i can't install any gapps
[Sony Xperia ZR] NDSA:
I SOLVED IT !!! first of all, if you having the same issue as me, DO NOT EVER INSTALL AN UPDATED VERSION OF TWRP, ok, so the way i made it, it was downgrading my rom/kernel in order to root my phone, cause it was literally impossible, kingroot, supersu, emma, flashtool, nothing worked, so once i downgrade my rom, i installed an older version of twrp, and then i root my phone, which it was possible due to having a less secured version of the kernel, and that's it, i could install gapps, flash roms, etc.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] RealPsygnosis:
Hi guys, i have a question or better 2.

1. Why all the custom rom that I have tried on my kenzo suffers of low signal strength? This doesn't happen on miui. Can you advise me some rom that doesn't have this issue.

2. (ot) again all custom rom takes camera shot slower in app. For example if you shoot a pic on WhatsApp it's slower then on miui.

Now camera it's a stupid thing but signal no. I really what to try and use a custom rom i don't really trust chinese rom.

Thank you in advance
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] _ossie_:
1. Relax. The actual signal strength is the same. The only thing that changes is how the ROM reports the signal strength. MIUI just shows the same signal strength as "better" when it isn't.

2. No idea. Try different ROMs and camera apps.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] flamedrops:
1. swipe dalvik, system, data and cache

2. install miuiglobal firmware

Make it sure if your device is kenzo or kate here is the link Firmware

3. install custom rom like (RR or viper os) it depends upon your choice

4. prefer gapps (optional)

So, BLE doesn't work for me at all. 3 devices so far, all of them fails to connect. Am I the only one with this problem, which means my phone is faulty, or this a common problem with this phone?
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] The_Hamster:
Well, I can confirm that it's a bug in the firmware, confirmed by Moto Support here.
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] sensi277:
Man, that sucks. Might have to cancel my order because of that. I use smartwatches and stuff. Motorola isn't exactly known for their expediency when releasing bugfixes.

That said, they released 2 updates within the first few weeks of the G5 Plus' release, so maybe they'll do the same for the G5S Plus.
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] The_Hamster:
I've got a feeling they're waiting and pushing it all with the 8.0 update, instead of fixing it in 7.1.1, and then pushing 8 soon after that.
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] sensi277:
That would suck, since the 8.0 update isn't due until December.

Can confirm that BLE is working. Got a Mi band 2 yesterday and BLE has been working fine.
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] revengineer:
BLE works here too. Hooked up Fitbit Charge successfully last night.
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] blondie99:
Hi guys ... How do you know that BLE is working? I have a garmin fenix with which seems to connect correctly to my G5S plus. But the bluetooth on my phone is really using lots of power (last 12 hours 832 mAh, or like 2,3% of my battery per hour). The question I ask myself is wether it's using a regular BT connection instead of BLE?

On my previous phone (moto x style) didn't seem to consume so much energy for bluetooth (during nights my battery graph was a flat line).
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] internetpilot:
BLE is working with both my ZenWatch 2 and ZenWatch 3 as well for the past week that I've had the phone .

[MENTION=535512]blondie99[/MENTION]: You can tell when BLE is working rather than regular BT if your Garmin is shows it's connected to the phone, but the BT icon doesn't change like it would if you were connected to your car, speaker, wireless headphones, etc.
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] _vvi_:
I know that is an old thread but recently I had a problem with connecting to one of the devices with BLE. Device was visible by the phone but was unable to pair.

Activating GPS helped - device was able to pair

I'm on stock Oreo 8.0

PS:For comparison Wiko Fever with MM connected to the same device without GPS activated
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mj_Oregon:
The new 5.2.6.0 update was pushed out to my FireTV on Saturday morning and I've been unable to run YouTube, PBS, NBC, and Amazon Prime programming since then. All my paid apps are running fine so far - Hulu, Netflix, HBO Now - but when I try to load anything from the free apps, I get kicked back a screen or two and nothing loads.

I have one of the original Fire TV boxes as I bought it in April 2014 and it's worked great since I bought it. I was on the phone for over an hour yesterday trying to get some help from their techs but nothing worked including a complete factory reset. Something in this update is blocking access to my free apps programming.

I understand that I'm supposed to be seeing more advertising but that's missing too. I was told at the end of my tech support conversation to buy another box because the warranty has obviously run out, but of course, they stopped selling the boxes several weeks ago and I'm stuck with a box that only works for half of what we used to watch.

Any suggestions for my next step? TIA!
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XDA_h3n:
I'm not from the US, but I'm pretty this is sounding like some sort of cache bug.

Try going to each individual app in settings and clearing cache and data; if this doesn't solve it, then I would remove the app and reinstall it.

If this doesn't work, I'd try deregistering your Amazon account in settings with the applications stated removed; then registering again, this may refresh the app store's data.

Lastly, try a factory reset of the Fire TV; this is a last resort.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Johnr79:
Ok so i have same issues the main one being allcast i cannot stream to tv from phone or kindle hd the firestick just tells me to install allcast on firestick... i have also factory reset and still the same issues telling me to install the app... tryed on my old firestick not updated to 5.2.6.0 and all app are working fine

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XDA_h3n:
Um. For those of you with the app store problems, does syncing your Amazon account fix this?

This is if you cannot download applications

Go to: Settings > My Account > Sync Amazon Content

What if you install the app from the browser interface on your laptop.

Try to install it remotely from the Amazon site, and choose to deliver it to the Fire stick you want. If it doesn't try to sync your account.

I doubt the application being installed is at issue, I believe there is some sort of configuration issue for you with the app. I don't use AllCast, so I can't help you there :rolleyes:

This application has stopped working since the 21st September on newer released firmwares, the application developer will need to fix the issue with newer firmwares for AllCast.

This could be correlated with the issues others have; I doubt there has been major API changes.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Johnr79:
Ok thanks i appreciate the reply regarding allcast app guess i just have to wait for an update and try it again..

:good:
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mj_Oregon:
I did all of this during my phone conversation with tech support, plus I had removed and reinstalled those apps prior to calling in with my problem. We did the deregistering/reregistering my account and then we did a full factory reset, which also didn't work. Is it possible that I have a corrupt install of this update? And could tech support remove the new version and knock it back to the previous one?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JeffDC:
Interesting questions. I've had YouTube freezing after a few minutes, since the update. I'll do a clear cache/data as see if that resolves it. If not a new YT install.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mnsupermachine:
I spoke with tech support last night because I reported this issue to them about 10 days ago and I wanted an update. The guy told me there was a master ticket in the system regarding this issue. It sounds like the new update triggered an hdcp error in certain apps. Like the OP, all my payed apps work but non of my amazon or free apps.

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SamsungMNE:
Hello everyone.

I'm new on forum, so I apologize if this thread already been. I just bought one old Samsung Galaxy S6 but in excellent condition, and I updated on Nougat 7.0 on regular way. After this update, time for full charging of the phone (from 0 to 100%) is about 5:30 hours? I read a lot of forums, and I have seen that to many people had this problem.

So I wanted to come back on 6.0.1 immediately, but then I seen that my USB don't work. When I plug it, I got a message "USB device not recognized". So, I can't use Odin, I can't root, even put custom recovery. I try to root without Odin, I found many tutorials, but everyone is with custom recovery (already in the phone). And when I try to find "how to put custom recovery in the phone" I got mostly links with Odin, or with some applications but wich work on already rooted deviced.

Android security patch level is August 1, 2017.

Can I do anything with regular android recovery, or I appriciate if someone give me link with this problem solved, or can't do nothing?

Best regards to all, and I hope if someone can help me.
