[Q] Battery(s) always 100% - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have an i9505 , since a couple of weeks my battery status is always 100% and allways 5018Mv till it shuts down because it ran out of juice, even then the battery status is 100%. I don't think it is a software problem cause after it began i rooted the decive en installed a custom rom and did a full wipe of data and cache.
Anyone knows what the problem can be?
Allready tried another battery, same problem.
I can charge the batterys without any problems.
---
Also my Phone thinks there's a headset connected, while there isn't any, can that be related?

Can you explain why?
It was also happening when using stock rom.
Or do you suggest also unroot it?
Don't see why that would help.

Such a pain getting rid of 4.0.4

Well I tried cm9 and latest 4.0.4 from Germany... In both I had a screen yellowish tint blinking issue... After flashing stock 4.0.4 I managed to root it via Dr . Ketan method... And also got cwm but cwm won't stick
That said I was looking forward to flash a safe kernel but I was afraid of doing it via cwm because I handle 4.0.4 as non safe (super brick bug infested) so I didn't dare to do so... So with no other option but Odin I didn't want to activate the binary counter because I wanted to return the phone because the yellow screen issue..
In was OMG how can I get rid of this w/o bricking my phone.. Well I have downloaded abyss kernel then momentary flashed cwm and then flashed abyss... When I rebooted the recovery a counter started and freaked me out... I let it count to 10.000 and got tired of it... I thought my phone was dead...
Then I turned it off and did the recovery sequence and it booted into the red cwm(abyss recovery) then wiped everything from there and installed a custom gb rom.
.. Luckily everything went fine and the custom rom booted perfectly.. In fact I'm using it right now checkrom notehd v6 its smooth as hell...
I can not reproduce the yellowish tint here and will try stock gb tomorrow and see if I can get the issue running... I'm worried because if I can't get the issue in gb then I can't claim warranty because it clearly says that I lose it if I change the software and it says the phone comes with android 2.3.6 so that means I'm stuck with gb..
I rebooted into Odin mode to see if something happened to the binary counter..
. And well everything seems fine but but but... I'm really worried about the screen issue as I proved its not hardware issue... How can I claim my warranty?
And wow what a pain in the ass to get rid of 4.0.4 without voiding warranty...

to get back to gb you just have to flash any gb rom through odin... There was not need to go through the custom kernel for downgrade. .also on Ics, as long as you don't factory reset/wipe you are safe from any brick provided you know what you are doing with the phone and what apps you are installing.

Yeah but as there is some roms that performs full wipe or non wipe and I'm not really sure that's the case for the stock roms from sammobile and or if Odin do a factory reset before flashing I was scared as hell
Noone provides clear steps here for doing things... So I followed what seemed more logical... Wich was getting a safe kernel to wipe without increasing the binary counter
Those "how to upgrade" guides should include at least a link for the safest way to "how to downgrade"
Nvm the point it's still the screen issue I want to know why it happens un ics and not in gb at least in this custom rom... I'm on... I want to change my phone but if I can not prove the issue I can not get a replacement

You can get any rom from SAMMOBILE that says "kies" after the version... those are official roms rolled over kies which are always non wipe...
Or you could flash speedmod kernel 3-7 using ODIN, that's a safe kernel (brickbug free), on 4.0.4 and then flash anything you want, no worries about brick...

I just downloaded the firmware, put it into recovery mode (power + home + vol. up) and then selected the file from PC Odin in the PDA box and that's it!
I'm not trying any more ICS roms from Sammy. They all suck.

You could just install any gb rom via Odin and one install get into stock recovery and clean and wipe data and cache is easy
And if you downloaded a rootable gb rom you can simply follow the rooting method as per the sticky and install cm9 from there
And no binary counter

Ever since I aware of the "brick" problem, I have not done a single wipe whenever I need to flash a new ROM. I have not encountered any big problem. :fingers-crossed:
So, for me, is just 2 steps:
1. Flash Abyss kernel.
2. Flash the ROM.
That is it (of course you need get it rooted 1st). The only thing is, 1st boot after flash ROM would take longer to boot up. I did run adb logcat to view the output to make sure the phone is still running/loading though...
So far, Criskelo ROM is the best for me. So I would stick with this ROM for now.

Triangle Away won't reset counter

Hello
I'm using omega rom with audism kernel, I have attempted to reset the counter several times. The application performs the reset and tells me it was successful, clearly it isn't.

Yeah after the first few updates of the S3 and now the S4....Samsung has implemented security measures to prevent people from resetting their flash count.....so at the moment Triangle away is useless on the S4....so its not a problem with your phone or something Hope this helped you

Not true bro, Triangle Away is to be used on a stock rom with a stock recovery and a stock kernel. Or else the counter would be raised after each reboot. TA only works on the I9505 atm. Whats the point of using TA if you have a custom rom, recovery and kernel

[Q] Custom Device status

Hi All,
My S4 is indicating custum device status, while I'm using official Samsung firmware, I've just updated it to 4.3 using Kies.
Does anyone have idea concerning this issue.
I saw in some threads that this is due to SD card, but I'm not using any sd card.
Thanks.
You have Custom rom, or Custom recovery

If your getting annoyed with this one try to flash a pre-rooted rom from djembey's thread and once your done install the triangle away to reset the binary and that should fix your problem and if you really want a stock rom then flash the stock rom from samsung and everything should be fine. have a nice day.

Losing signal after flashing kitkat rom

Anyone else experiencing this problem? I was running stock 4.2.2 with no problems and now I'm having erratic signal problems. I've tried 3 different roms and even got roms and they are all the same. Never had this problem on stock. Can I just flash a lower to rectify my problem or is this a kit at related issue?

The most normal is that u have wrong baseband. Dial *#1234# and attach it here.
* SOLUTION: Flash 2 times same Kit Kat firmware :highfive:

Sorry but do you mean I have to flash the same rom again? No need for full wipe or anything?
AP:I9505XXUGNE5
CP: i9505ZHUDMI1
Do you have TWRP recovery? If not flash that recovery and then flash the rom you want after a full wipe.
I dont know why but some roms give no signal when flashed with other recovery.

Yeah, you need a custom recovery (TWRP/Philz Touch) for install customs roms. This will active KNOX (KNOX 0x1) and will void ur warranty. Only for your info :highfive:

I'm on a custom rom now with a custom recovery installed.
I'm sorry but I am confused. Are you trying to say that after flashing a Rom I need to flash a radio that's for hk?
The file you told me to download is 1.5gb I'm assuming it's a full Rom. Is there any way I can continue to use echo Rom while changing pda only?

You should tell me before that u had a custom rom installed. Well, things change now.
The problem maybe is the custom rom u have installed. Install one older version or simply ask in correct thread of the custom rom.
Lol I've tried echo Rom, omega Rom and Ge roms and they all have signal issues.

yes i tried latest kitkat baseband but it didnt work
You can see the rom/kernel name in about settings but so far as i know you probably have to reflash an kernel/rom to fix the sensors or you need to locate the sensor files from the g2 rom you're using and make an flashable zip from it.
same problem,how can i fix it,please help me
Can you guys to do a clean flash and flash KK modem first and then the rom?
Have you tried backing up your current rom, restoring stock rom backup, and restoring the custom rom again? Works for me every time.
