new firmware update for n915G - Note Edge General

out of blue gotten this ota update N915GXXS1DPI2/N915GOLB1DPG1/N915GXXU1DPG3 , anyone updated ?

nice, any fixes? nightclock or fingerprint?

DPI1 brought back the priority callers panel (thank god) and allowed sending contact details as text instead of vcf. Both very useful.

@ arbit12 how about the rest ? its doesnt meddle with any boot loop or battery drain issues right ?

The auto shut off is purely a battery issue. At least in my case. I bought a new one (not OEM) named "Signature". The battery looks dank with dark orange packing a velvety box. Since the past two days, ive been getting an SOT of at least 3.5 hrs as conpared to the waning OEM battery that barely gave me 1.5 hrs and used to do rouge reboots anywhere between 20-50% . For 430rs, i hope it lasts at least 6 months

Any feedbacks on the update with regards to battery life?
Ive been very wary of OTA updates since ppl have actually complined that theyve made their devices slower

Fix- Battery drain 2.3.3 - high android OS

Hi there
I just like to share my experience with battery drain in both JVK and JVB and give you a possible fix.
I experienced battery drain both in jvk and jvb and when you go setting - battery check, I would see high android OS - up to 60 percent which just drank the juice out of my phone.
I've decided to test all the apps, deleting one by one in order to locate which app was causing this problem and I found it to be "software update".
So here is a possible fix for you guys who are experiencing similar problem.
Go to setting - manage apps - all apps - find software update - delete data
In both JVK and JVB it solved my battery drain problem almost instanly.
I also did battery recalibration but doubt it played any part.
I hope above method will solve the battery drain problem.
P.S
does anyone know what exactly software update does?
and how to delete it completely off the phone.
I doubt I will be using OTA update or anything like that since I'm a big fan of odin.
Cheers
thanks man.
i'm checking it out, i really hope this solution works!
this is my second night in a row, where im going to sleep with exactly 89 percent battery and when i got up i saw the phone is at 8 percent.
made me so pissed i wanted to go back to my sony-erricsson from 2005

Hmm, this "fix" was kinda known a long time ago? (you can see it even in the thread called something with Android OS and few more) http://goo.gl/Hpc5a . And I think its the OTA update which does nothing currently. Hmm, am confused about your question. You ask what it does then you say you wont need it anyway .
And for example freeze it with titanium backup? Now when click the option it does nothing (no fc and phone works normally)

Yea just found out that this fix was known a long time ago.
Well, I hope this helps some people anyway..
anyone know how to delete this software update apk??
Do you read what I wrote? The same way you can freeze it, you can delete it... Best with titanium backup, should be foolproof enough. Do a backup before etc.
Deleted the data and also the apk! Nothing changed

So you are wrong here . This thread is like the other ones for the ppl with high Android OS usage. 9 percent is ok.
Well if display is 61 , how many hours on? And what else is there? More data we need.
When I was on JVK, I was able to fix the android OS problem but had another one where after playing a graphically intense game, the CPU would not ramp back down when the phone went to sleep. That was draining the battery a lot for me and the only way to fix it was to reboot the phone. I'm back on 2.2.1
Disabling software update seems to not work for me also, im using stock Ginger (latest version - probably final) and after 1-2 days after flash Android os is taking 70% of battery :/
Looks like software update isnt the issue.

I lost 10% !! in 3h !! WITHOUT DATA! is really too much! With the 2.2.1 i used to lost 1% every 2-3 hours! ! And as you can see in the first day , in the last part i tried to use it (ONLY FOR READ A MANGA , so only img on the sd and i had the brightness to 20% ) O_O !

What is the fixed bug? I have the battery drain bug and the browser bug? And no one of them are fixed :-|
The bugfix worked in my case!
I charged my phone to 100% in the forenoon (~11:00am) and I only had 21% left at 7:20 pm.
Now it's 11:30 pm and I still have 20% after I removed the data of the OTA-Update app.

Red Light Of Death - Should I Be Concerned?

Hey Guys.
I'm very excited to get my nexus 4 but I've been hearing a lot of people talking about the RLOD!!
What causes this problem and is there anyway to fix this??

the red light is just caused by using your phone the wrong way. it won't happen if you do not flash a custom rom anyway.
And if you flash custom roms it won't happen either, if you follow the standard steps you have to follow on every android phone. It's just a brick that can happen on every android device if you flash broken .zip's or anything else comparable .
People who claim this happened from a moment to the next without them doing anything wrong, are just not telling the truth. Even IF this would happen this way(not your own fault), you could easily get a replacement from google without any costs or problems.
Thanks for the reply,
Ive heard many people who had a completely stock and unrooted nexus 4 say they got a red light of death too... The problem is, I don't live in any of the countries that have playstore devices. So I'm having somebody from the US bring it for me...

propably you could check the rev of those n4's (asking them in pm's). i can't imagine rev11+ have this problem anymore. I still won't believe this happened without a reason

These many people you speak of? That's not even half possible for it to RLOD on pure stock without any mods it's just to save the hardware its the phones built in safety net...unless you plan on OCing to 1.98ghz and set it to performance and run antutu that will most likely do it for you
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Hi,
It happened wih or without running an Antutu bench. Yes some users have reported the red light on stock with rev 10 or with rev 11.
Antutu is not directly the culprit, it's due to a bad read of battery stuff (in a stress condition even at 50% battery the phone think you are out of battery then shutdown + heat, there is an issue with some phone about the battery contact inside the phone). If it's happen you can try to let your phone in charging for hours, sometimes it's enough. But the better thing is to open your phone then disconnect / reconnect the battery.
It happened also while flashing something in recovery mod, 40% battery, flash then reboot and bam red light...
Also on a French forum it happened during a download while browsing...
I agree we not know all the conditions together when it happened but it seems this is slightly random. Maybe a combination of circumstances...
It's "just" related to some weird battery reading issue.
For example I ran a bunch of Antutu bench with / without overclocking at different battery % (even at 11% battery ) without any issues, at least until today...
Take a look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=36304348
So does this problem happen to everybody or is only a minority of nexus 4 users affected? Do you think google would've fixed this problem by now??
Re,
It seems it's a minority phones who are concerned...
I don't know if Lg / Google have worked on the problem. As I read maybe the rev 11 are less concerned? But I'm not sure...
Don't be afraid, use your phone and if that happens rma or open your phone, there is always a solution
Alright, read a lot of threads and it looks like removing the battery and starting it again works perfectly. I also read somewhere that its due to too much pressure being applied on the thing the connects the battery to the phone.. - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2128392&highlight=red+light+of+death&page=2
Yes, it's what I said, ah I forgot this link.
When you search, you find
Happened to me a few days after I got it (100%stock, not rooted); I left it charging for some time and it turned on again like nothing happened. Didn't happened since.
Only time I had it was when I first rooted.
It got stuck in a boot loop on the "X" screen and when I rebooted to clear the cache the red light flashed and I had to hold the power button in to turn it off.
Booted into recover fine after that.
No issues since.
Alright that's good to hear. When did you guys get your nexus?? Maybe google resolved this issue.
I got mine very recently ordered in late February. It did red light because I flashed a mod which was for the nexus 7 but i flashed it on my nexus 4. I just went into recovery and flashed stock, phone was fine.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Alright. Sounds good.
Got mine last week but it's a Rev 10 not an 11.

That is not true.. Red light appears due to some small chip next to the battery which is hardly put in there, you just need to release some pressure and it will be fine.. (there's a youtube video)
Loosen the screws?? Do you have a link to the YT video?
Ordered mine when they were first available, got it 2-3 weeks later (end of November).
Got a bricked rev11 301k here. Tried everything untill I get my replacement (takes a bit longer since I live in holland). Check out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2177787&highlight=nexus+4+bricked for more info. Now I try to drain the battery and let it charge (put it in a cold enviroment for a full 24 hrs. Got past the google logo for half a second and saw the stock recovery before it went dead again

Android L is still in development and we haven't had 4.4.3 or even 4.4.4 so lets give Nvidia some time!

Well what is the problem with battery ?? Im having no problem with it. It gived me 15 to 20 hours of battery life in battery saving mode with normal use no games .
I really hope we have a shot with Android L. I just bought this tablet, and seeing the Moto G will get the update suggests that 1GB of RAM should be sufficient to run the new OS.

The problem is I always end up having to charge it after about two to three hours of use, in balanced mode, most of the time just watching Youtube videos. I am almost certain that they advertised much more battery life. The other problem I have is the meter in the notification menu just stops working randomly and I have to restart the tablet to fix it. maybe a defect in my system alone, but annoying nonetheless.

To me its sounding like you have a defective unit mate.
I posted in a few places there is definitely a battery issue I only got about 4 hours playing a game and sending some mails. for a 4100mah it seems less or is it about right? the screen brightness was at 30%, gangstar vegas total play time was about 2hrs 40min and the rest was email on the native email app. balanced mode.

Glad to hear that helped, I'll try when mine is (hopefully) returned after touch screen issues. I was considering installing juice defender app, which works wonders for extending my phone battery life, but will try power saving mode first.

Z5 - Weak battery after 2nd firmware update (32.0.A.6.200)

Hello guys,
I got 32.0.A.6.200 on my Z5 few days ago (I'm in Sweden) and since then battery drains much much faster then before. I use the phone in the same way and did not install new apps since the update. I use the phone for about 3 months and never had battery issues until now.
Yesterday 13th Feb, I had 100% at around 12am and after barely 8 hours I had 59% with ... STAMINA ON since 12am (!) ... crazy. Battery was fully discharded during the night. I will post some photos once I find a way how to do it...- I cannot post outside link, can you guide me how to upload photos?.
Today 14th Feb I charged my phone to 100% at 10am and estimated battery life is only 18 hours (this time with STAMINA OFF). Later today I will post some screenshots when battery reached 10%.
Do you experience the same?
Cheers
Sly
I guess thats the mobile radio active bug thing thats eating up your battery. You check for that by going to settings->power management ->battery usage ->click on the app that most used your battery and see the mobile radio active thing. Its a lollipop bug ??

I don't have problems (using 152 fw, though 200 fw is almost the same)
If u have had better battery life before upgrading, I suggest u to do a full factory reset - I've seen stranger things getting fixed by factory reset
Hi, i had that Problem too, the best solution is to use androplus v11 with thunderplug, i got much better battery-life with it.
EDIT: Best to use with Kernel Adiutor, because of the Features.
Best Regard's
Alex1911
i have poor battrery on .200 too. I have polish phone from orange but without simlock and i use Plus GSM. I make 2 times factory reset but still nothing. The most drainer for me is ANDROID SYSTEM. On LG g2 i have problems with google services and here with system. In G2 i have root so that was no problem to solved but on Z5 i'm using visa and NFC to payment.
Thanks for your responses guys. It seems I am not the only one...
Just for info. Yesterday I repaired the phone via PC Companion so the firmware has been installed from scratch and I restored my backup data. The interesting part was that after all of that I had approx 50% of battery left and Z5 showed me that it should last approx 1 day and 13 hours - which is a very good result. So I thought that finally (!) it's been solved some way.
My happiness did not last long as the battery decreased a lot during night (approx 20% on a newly installed software without any 3rd party apps).
So this morning at 10am I charged my Z5 to 100% and it shows it should last for 23 hours (!). Totally unnaceptable.
I think I will try to do a factory reset tonight...
PS. And I switched from iPhone to Android to have better battery life..... no comment.
Cheers
Sly
Estimated battery Remaining time is about how you use ur phone so it's not a important how much you have left.
I have now 20 hours left and i usually get 6 hours sot.
Yes, I agree with you however please note the following:
- before 2nd update to 32.0.A.6.200 I never had any objections or complaints about battery life (since 3 months of usage),
- before 2nd update to 32.0.A.6.200 when the battery was fully charged I had approx 2 days remaining battery time (with few days in Standby),
- after 2nd update to 32.0.A.6.200 when the battery is fully charged I have approx 23 hours remaining battery time (with barely 1 day 2 hours in Standby). And I do not have any apps installed (as like out of the box).
So clearly something is wrong as the difference is crucial. I regret I have installed that 2nd update at all.
Don't let the numbers fool you,use ur phone for few days and you will notice that thing will be back to normal.

Yes, that's the plan for this evening. Will revert with some comments in a few days.
Did factory reset, and repair via PC Companion app.
Nothing helps!

You need at least a week after a factory rest to test a battery life.
Lot of sync and pop up during that time.

If your battery is draining without any 3rd party apps, while your mobile is sopouse to sleep, there is no need to rest or test. Don't defend Sony developers! Lets hope for MM as soon as posible, and that it Will resolve all our battery problems.

So rooting is only way? But then we void warranty. If that is True it's time to get rid of that phone.

Battery and other things.

Hi.
So I bought S7E in September. I noticed a smudge on the screen. I sent it in for repair. They repaired screen AND battery AND usb connector, although the only thing wrong with the phone was screen. They also wrote that they updated the software (I checked and I have android 6.0.1).
So yestrday I got the phone back. Plug it in the recharger and restored it with the back up I made and played with it while it was charging so that I could fully adjust it like it was before.
Than I went into battery settings and it said "Learning usage patterns..." And I was like "okay, you do that"
This morning I woke up checked if it is till learning usage patterns and it is not. BUT it says that the "Estimated usage time remaining is 10 hours".
Now I found that a bit odd and bit low, especially since its a new battery. Before I sent the phone for repair I had like 22-24 hours of estimated usage time when it was on 100%.
I also noticed that most of time my smart manager says the phone has 75% RAM in use. So only 1 gb free. I think that before I sent it there it wasnt like that.
So any suggestions, ideas or anything guys?
I also attached some screenshots
Your battery life seems okay. Check how many hours SOT You get. Take a screenshot of screen battery usage when You have around 10-20% or just say how many hours You got. With a custom rom I get usually around 4-5 hours at most, but with a stock rom 6-7 hours. And on my device I have 1.2GB of free ram and after cleaning ram I get 1.7GB.
Your first estimation is going to be low especially after a new update. Give it a day or two . And don't clean your ram too often because it will get reopened again . (waste of battery ) . Your android system is using alot tho but thats normal for newer software.
Give it time to settle down a bit It will get better
So far it's been over 4 hours SOT on my device and I still have 50%. 8 hour SOT? COOOOOL! That's why I chose S7 Edge . Let Your device learn usage patterns. It really works! After 2-4 days Your battery life will be better than ever
Okay. I made some screenshots.
I dont know either why System Android is using that much.
Anywayw today I was mostly on FB and 9GAG. I am ill, meaning home in bed. So I didnt really watch videos or talk on phone to much (maybe 3 or 4 calls).
Yeah. I hope it will learn my usage patterns and that will be it. Because sending it back to that company that repairs samsung here in my country is really the worst. Like they are retarded or something...
Will it also get less laggy with time? Because I remember that before I sent it there, it ran a bit smoother. Now sometimes when scrolling through this forum or facebook its a bit laggy... I know it wasnt before.. Is that also something that the phone needs to learn and adjust after few days? Or should I factory reset it, just to be sure?

Your sot isnt too bad for a new firmware. Atleast you can get around 6 hrs sot. Your lagg prolly wont adjust and i am not sure why your device is lagging at all. Give it a few more days. Just hope nougat will fix your problems and ours.
Well before repair I sometime got like 4 hrs SOT, sometime 5, sometimes 6, sometimes even 7. It really depends on what I am doing on the phone.
Well its not that laggy but I remember it wasnt as much before.
Do you maybe know when nougat is coming for s7e?

How can you activate this 'learn usuage patterns'? Is it in your battery settings? Could you please help?

It happens automatically when You flash a fresh rom. (Factory reset).

The beta program is around the corner, its only a matter of time before it reaches out publicly. My advice to you is to turn off fast charge because for me its around 3-5 c less heat and it is only 20 minutes slower .

Hi, I'm experiencing the same problem the OP is. When I do a factory reset it's not saying "learning usage patterns" as my old phone did. Can you tell me why? thanks.
