Moto G4 Battey life draining quickly especially over night

Posted: 23 Dec 2016 01:49 PM PST

When I first got the device (2 weeks ago) the battery was unbelievably good. Just yesterday I went to sleep with 95℅ I had just charged it then unplugged it ( it dropped 5 percent, all I did was open Pokémon go for like 5 mins ) I slept for 6-7 hours so that's how long he phone was idle. I woke up with 65℅. When I checked what was using the battery it said mobile standby 7℅ and a few other things all 2 percent. I didn't use the phone at all no updates in the background or anything!

Another Moto G4 user who got the same phone from the same network provider at nearly the same time as me experienced similar things had 25℅ battery and woke up with a dead battery! He also said when the phone was new ( a couple days old ) he also didn't have this issue but now it's 2 weeks ish old like mine same issues - and I also agree when the phone was a day old or two i didn't experience this.

Anyone experienced the same?

Messenger flickering

Posted: 23 Dec 2016 01:25 PM PST

Verizon 32 GB Blue Pixel using Google Messenger app - whenever I hit a key on the messenger keyboard a thin border of light flashes around the entire desktop. I'd say it is about a 1/16th. It doesn't seem to interfere with anything, but it is annoying.
I also have a black Pixel and it dose not do this flashing thing. As close as I can tell settings on the phones are the same.

Any ideas appreciated......hmmm...I wonder if I got a special version of the Blue Pixel - cash bids accpeted - :D

I9505 - CM13 - no phoneook syncing in car

Posted: 23 Dec 2016 01:13 PM PST

Dear all,
I`m one of this users what are using phone to call and take photo of nice situation in life.
I use I9505 with TWRP 3.0.2.0 root and all Custom Roms what was develop. I have one big isse with phonebook syncing with car. I test more than all roms for S4, and only in 5 of them this function is working. Those 5 Roms are Lollipop roms (cm12.1). But - in all CM12.1 for S4 there is a another issue (to dark screen and big battery drain). In rest LP roms, phonebook is not syncing.
Another situation is with MM Roms. In all of them screen is normal, battery works much better, but no full phonebook can be sync. It allways miss some contacts.
What does mine? That someone can fix it! I try several ways - Use phonebook app, try to save contacts in phone memory, change display contacts, save to another groups - nothing. Still I can see the same contacts, without rest.

Help, maybe we can fix somehow. I can participate with tests. But let`s someone start to be also interested - why this is not working.


Marry Christmas for all!
Regards

Galaxy Tab S 8.4 battery drains when off

Posted: 23 Dec 2016 01:10 PM PST

Hi,
I've been using this Tab S since July 2014 and been very pleased of it.
I only use it every night for Web browsing or watching movies.
Not any games or any social network or anything draining the battery.
Average autonomy was around 7 to 8 hours.
9 months ago it has started to drain a little bit more and especially when off (totaly off, not in sleep mode)
Before that event I was turning it off at night and 24 hours later the battery level was exactly the same. (zero percent of drift)
Then it started to suck a little bit every day: 1%, 2%, 3% each 24 hours when completly OFF.
First thing I've done was to make a wipe cache/data and restore to factory settings from recovery mode.
It didn't help.
Then Samsung released Lolipop Upgrade so I did it.
It didn't help any more.
So I ordered a new battery to an official dealer and replaced it.
You know the answer.... didn't help.
Then Marshmallow has come and I did it.
.... idem.
So as electronics and automation technician I am, I decided myself to do some measurements.
I opened the Tab S and checked battery voltage when off every hour with a high accuracy Fluke D.M.M.
And I found that it was loosing ~34mV every 24 hours, which makes the 3% loss.
(Boring calculations just for knownledge : LiPo Vmax 4350mV - LiPoVmin 3200mV = 1150mV corresponding to 100% capacity.)
First thing I did after that was to make the same check but with battery disconnected to the Tab S.
And you know what? not even a mV drained in 24 hours when not connected to Tab S PC Board!
Then I measured the resistance between + and - socket on the PC board : value between 800KOhms and 1,2MOhms.
Same values when I crossed the wires.
Theses values are too low, I should have found many many MOhms.
I've also checked the battery connector that some other guys said it was loosy or bad soldered: that's not the case but I've soldered it.
same problem.
MY CONCLUSION: it's a hardware problem.
Maybe it's a drifting component, probably a capacitor which as lost insulation, or a defective diode.
Unfortunately I don't have the diagrams of this Tab S and can't diagnose it.
Has anybody had the same problem?

Metropcs Fierce XL possible to upgrade to Marshmallow 6.0?

Posted: 23 Dec 2016 12:58 PM PST

I have a 5.x lollipop Fierce XL.. is there a method to safely upgrade to Marshmallow 6.x?

I cant seem to find one.. i see notes on using kingroot to root (i've never rooted before).. but some reports are that it slows things down and i'm not seeing that rooting helps to achieve 6.x upgrading?

Thanks in advance

How can I stop Google Play Music from displaying files from my device?

Posted: 23 Dec 2016 12:14 PM PST

I downloaded some mp3 files onto my android phone and the files appeared in my song library on Google Play Music, even though I don't want them to. The box for auto-download is already unchecked and if I press delete in the library it deletes them from the device files too.

Priv/Android - music on cell and windows

Posted: 23 Dec 2016 11:52 AM PST

Where is a good place to buy music that you can get on phone or windows?

I used to use 7Digital. It was great. I could buy on phone or cell and wherever I bought it, I can always go back to Windows and download it. They have had a lot of changes there and it simply doesn't work anymore (for what I want).

Spotify doesn't work as you need a membership (I can't figure out why you need a membership to buy music so that doesn't work for me).

I guess I am old school (I am told lol). I like to download and make CD's. I guess people don't do this so much but I do. My car has no plug for cell so CD's I must make.

Thanks for any suggestions.

GS2-I727r Data Problems

Posted: 23 Dec 2016 11:48 AM PST

Good day. I'm having a serious problem. I flashed a custom rom recently (The name is SlimLP Rom 5.1.1) and a couple hours after first boot, my mobile service dropped and came back up. After that, my phone's mobile data & network won't work while on LTE or 3G basebands. I can't get calls, texts or use my data. The only time these things work is when i switch to 2G or EDGE and then i'll be able to text, call and use data again.
Any ideas?
