Anyone here who updated from android 5.0 to android 6.0? Is everything ok? After update is there any issue? Anyway fellas, I am a new samsung user, that's why asking. Another question is, When i update android 6.0, do i need to remove Micro SD card before update?
I did it over OTA - this way doesn't require you to do anything special (no factory reset, or card removal). It is a good idea to back your phone up before the process. I synced it to the cloud and did a backup of apps+data in Helium.
Looks better - provides more security in app manager - something that would be avaialble after root. Otherwise its very similar to previous one. Did not notice any issues so far.
Phone gets very warm (not hot) during the update process - don't get scared!
How does it look via Odin? - read one of the manuals, as it's always the same procedure.
it's mostly fine
there was one service error related to watch/health at cold boot, but you can fix that by disabling the component (I forgot the exact error but you can google it if you get it)
one thing bugs me is that wifi goes down when the device goes to sleep, and theres no way to force enable it (its turned to never sleep already, and I put some services into not conserve battery mode)

Overheating on my Galaxy S4.
I have a Galaxy S4 for about a year, I have this problem almost since I bought it, but it appears and reappears, so I let it go.
My Galaxy S4, using WhatsApp Music and the CPU temperature rises to just using these programs 45-50ºC
Using only the poweramp the instrument reaches 65c for no reason.
Using browser is hopeless, the device rises to 50-70 degrees and finally restarts or shuts down.
When I bought the unit in the first week I realized that he was heating a lot, but did not reach this temperature (50-70) normally.
I read in various forums that the normal temperature of the Galaxy S4 units were 35-56c
Recently, I downloaded a few albums of music and some pictures on my phone that day he shot and started this strange behavior, and following the same steps bellow, the problem still persists.
I already own a Galaxy Note and I have witnessed the bug "AndroidMediaScanner".
I did all the steps (exeto formatting the MicroSD, I recently formatted to exFAT SD) Until I checked the status of the reading process of media using the Android ADB, there was nothing abnormal ..
Even without the memory card, few files in SD (just applications) the problem still appears.
What do you think? It may be a hardware problem that requires replacement?
It may be the battery?
It may be the ROM • (when the OmegaROM use a series of modules Xposed)
Recently reinstalled the ROM and the problem still persists.
I read in a blog that the DS Battery Saver could be giving conflict with the manager's native battery used in the Galaxy S4, I uninstalled the program, yet the problem persists warming.
Connected to the USB temperature suddenly increases to 65c without any reason or use.
What recommend?
Sorry for the English. I used Google translator.
Maybe i attach prints.
My initial thought would be to get a new battery. Becaus it jumps so drastically when you start charging it. You could also check your battery connections. Make sure they are free from dust and corrosion.

You have to find the "service" that is turning in background....
If you mind it is the AndroidMediaScanner, I can say from experience ( it was killing my battery in less than 5 hours)
I stopped this issue (flaw) by cleaning one by one my Music folders and deleting those empty or having no music file in it ( that sometime comes when you clean a directory from the music player interface) .
then my phone turning back to normal temperature state.

I said in the text that has nothing wrong with MediaScanner Android. I used the Android Debug Bridge to verify this and it appears to be normal.
The application showed 10% CPU usage when the unit was starting.
I used OS Monitor app (it shows up the processes of the Linux kernel and user) in order to find some buggy process that was doing it.
I removed 4GB of external memory file and checked the Android Debug Bridge MediaScanner if the process had been stuck at some file storage.
There was no error in both stores.
I witnessed this primary failure of the Android system twice on my old Galaxy Note.
Thxz for reply.
whats the solution
Hi all,
I'm writing to ask you if you know any website(s) where I can buy 100% original Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (G935F) Battery. I think mine (unfortunately) is almost gone
Thank you in advance

You probably need to go to an authorized service center. But how can it get damaged so fast? Did you disconnect from charging cable before battery reaches 100% and connect charging cable when battery is above 10% frequently?

Really I don't know, I bought it used just a week ago from a person that gave me also the receipt from 01/08/2016. I don't know if this is battery related or any other problem, I'm just feeling to exclude software problems as I tried everything (also rolling back to a previous update or trying it without SIM, apps, sync, AOD etc.)
Can you describe your problem ? Like are you having problems with very low sot or very hot device?

Sure u can. Its just not as easy as popping the back cover. The s7 edge and s7 is actually easier to do than the s6 series. Look at ifixit.com and see if they have oem batteries. They will have a tutorial for the process

Actually it seems to suck away my battery life specially when screen is off. No matter if it's only on stand by with wifi/radio on or in airplane mode, my battery drains like I've never seen before on standby.
Stranger thing, the problem isn't that big when screen is on (obviously battery drains faster, but not by lot more).
Device goes hot locally, specially in the mid-right side, when I use data and I have bad signal; when I'm calling I noticed that most of the times I lose the call, or from a certain moment the other person can't hear me anymore if I still can hear him.
I don't know if it's battery related, a radio issue or any other problem. The fact is that it drains my battery even in airplane mode or without a sim installed.
When i installed an app through apk and i didnt know it was rogur until my device started heating up with no apps in the background. So i used malwarebytes and found malware. After removing it and rebooting it the device calmed after. But then again this might not be your fix.
Hi all,
This is the situation today after 3h10min of battery, -30%, at home with wi-fi (no GPS, no bluetooth, no AOD, no NFC, no sync) and only 50m of screen on.
I also deactivated some bloatware and other apps from App manager and Package Disabler Pro (Google app, Word, Excel, Powerpoint, OneDrive, OneNote, Skype, Oculus, Samsung Gear VR, Knox, Samsung Game Center, Om Customize); also unchecked options to send statistics to Google and Samsung, and all the other stuff I read from the topic "Temporary battery fix".
The situation is still the same. P.S. I'm on latest BPJG (unbranded) with November 1st patch.
Might not be the battery at fault. You have no standby/sleep, something is keeping your phone awake. Your Android System looks to high. If you have the receipt couldn't you send it to Samsung?
Sent from my SM-G935F using XDA-Developers mobile app
have you tried to factory reset it, if that doesnt work try to flash newer firmware like nougat or newer version of mm with odin
I tried factory reset but still problem persists. Now I'll try with Nougat official beta update flashed from Odin to see if I can fix it.
Hi, first post. I asked the question on another site some months back about deleting or stopping the install notification about the downloaded, although not installed Nougat update, no answers were forthcoming. My phone on 6.0.1 works great and I have no issues that warrant an upgrade. I have hardly any apps installed on it and really only use it for light internet, photos, the phone and GPS. I don’t really want to update it to Nougat due to some of the horror stories I have read. I am not (yet) very Android proficient.
Can I just leave the downloaded Nougat updated installed, but stop the daily notification to install it?
Or
Can I easily delete the downloaded but not installed Nougat update?
In this case I subscribe to the notion, if it isn’t broke don’t touch it. Maybe I am being too overly cautious.
Current details
Hardware: XT1642.
Version: 6.0.1
Build: MPJ24.139.23.4
Security Update: 1 May 2016
Any help steering me in the right direction is appreciated.
Cheers,
@CC2005
If you remove downloaded files, still it will not stop, then you will get notification for new update available and to download it.
Better if you update to latest version,
otherwise you need to restrict notification for moto updater app or data for it. (I don't remember correctly if those feature existed on MM, as the way it is present in N)
It looks as if I will have to just go ahead and install the OTA Nougat 7.0 update that has downloaded; as there doesn't seem to be a simple way of stopping the notification to install it. As mentioned, I didn't want to install Nougat as it works perfectly now on 6.01, maybe I am just worrying about nothing, obviously Nougat 7.0 doesn't stuff up all devices.
It is still in warranty so if an OTA update causes problems I may be able to return it?
Cheers

If there is any problems and if it's under warranty, you can surely take it to the service center.
As far as I know, if you get a replacement device, it will be updated to the latest version out of the box. So there is no way going back to MM.
If you still want to use MM, your only hope is custom ROMs.
You can't downgrade the official updates.
Nougat is not that bad. Most of us are waiting for Oreo and I am wondering how are you still on MM
Have a nice Day :good:

I have disabled most of the Motorola notifications "Motorola Update Services", "Motorola Notification" and one or two others. This sometimes prevents the "Install System Update" notification as long as I do not power it off, I put it to sleep by putting if face down. Although most of the time I have to delay the install manually by rescheduling the install time-pressing later etc when the message pops up.
I am a light user, and can get up to 8 days (rarely) usage out of a single charge, I have disabled a lot of Google & other Apps that I don't want to use, and turned off many Google Play Services. Lots of photos, calls and WiFi use I get 2-3 days use, so I am trying to keep the current OS. Also the works reasonably well in very hot weather taking photos and using the GPS-off line maps, it does at times get hot and can suffer camera issues and more so, GPS stuttering and lag above 35C-40+C but shade it from the sun and minimise use and it will work ok.
Cheers & have a great day too.
Ok, I've been operating with Nougat 7.0 for two months now. There are pros and cons and some of the cons I will adapt to as they are only preferences, minor setting and appearance.
My main concerns about the OS update were battery life and heating. Normal use, the battery drains a little quicker without WIFI or Sim data on, not enough to cause concern. But with WIFI and or sim data on, it definitely uses more battery power than before, almost at an average of 10%-15% more-not a scientific analysis. I am not a big data users so again not big concern. Although when using data, downloading, surfing etc, the battery rate depletes at a much quicker rate than before, I would estimate 30%-40% faster. I also notice the battery depletes much quicker when using the camera and the associated heat when using the camera feels (going by sense not measuring it) somewhat higher. The camera and video mode are the one that bother me and I forgot to mention, using offline maps, gps enabled (no WIFI or Sim data activated) the battery use is again higher than before.
So, I would have been better off on MM, yes, but it is what it is and I can work around the battery issue when I know my usage of those features will be heavy. A cheap pocket portable USB charger may need to be purchased.
I haven’t done a factory reset and I have only cleared the cache via settings app. Maybe the next step before a portable pocket USB charger is purchased.
Cheers
My S4 has been acting strange lately and I am trying to decide if there is still something I can do to limp it along or if its time to just upgrade to a newer device.
Behavior:
- battery is draining quicker than usual
- phone will shut down with 12% battery
- phone will connect to a call but no audio can be heard - will have to reboot the phone in order to make calls
- problems syncing with bluetooth
The phone is rooted and the title should say most information but if there is something more I can provide please let me know.
Is there things I can do to make it run smoother and better or am I better off upgrading??
Thanks in advance!
So my girlfriend owns this Huawei Nova 3i device, whenever she puts her phone on charging, the phone starts to lag big time. She has tried optimizing the phone, clearing all the background apps but that just won't work. Is there anything that can be done? Also what might be causing this issue?
Hi there , thats actually a somewhat common issue in some phones it could be a wide range of factors but commonly this due to
1-) Software (the most common one , this does not present any danger and it is most of the time a sort of security measure so the phone doesnt overheat when it is being used and charged at the same time)
2-) Faulty Charger / Charger with not enough current
3-) Software Issues , this is different in the sense that this is due to a buggy os or application and its not by choice of the manufacturer , to fix this you could try reflasing the stock rom
But as you can see this issue does not represent a real sign of damage on the phone , my personal recommendation would be to first change the charger and second to factory reset (backup everything first!) and if that doesnt work , reinstalling the most recent stock rom may just work.
