[Q] Bluetooth off but still drains battery

Hello !
I installed Pardus ROM yesterday, but had this problem even before... And don't know what to do !
I kind of never use Bluetooth. Or, when I use it, I let it on for 5 minutes, then turning it off.
But ! That's quite strange, but even off, it still drains my battery !!!
Just look at this !
41% of the battery consumption ! Insane !
But
What should I do ?
Thanks !

What's your flashing regime? Clean install? Needs to be.
(Note that on Stock KK there is a reporting error that shows BT using between 3 and 6% of battery usage (NOT used) which is "normal". It isn't drain. What you have is not normal though!)
You're right... The Bluetooth drain was 6-7% when I was on Kitkat, and I thought it wasn't normal... Seems it was !
So it's just on Pardus that I have a problem !
I used the Philz recovery's special functionality : "Clean to install a new ROM". It wiped some partitions, but not all (if I do remember, it wiped system, data, cache only). Not the SD partition !
Should I wipe everything and flash it again ?

Hmmm.... not familiar with Pardus. If you wiped cache, dalvik, system and data you should be OK.... wiping the SD Card is good practice but not always feasible due to having the ROM to flash there.
But sounds like not!
I think I'll contact the developer of Pardus, then !

Most of the time, it's a kernel issue. So flash this kernel here in your recovery, should work fine: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2915551&d=1409232919
Wipe cache and dalvik cache after install the kernel.

This is normal behavior not a problem, you need to disconnect from charger and why you want this feature?
Press thanks, if it helps

Sometimes i need to charge my mobile faster.. so i need to switch it off.. at that time i am helpless.. Yesterday i installed stock rom > rooted > installed Philz recovery.. Till this step i was able to switch it off while charging.. but once i installed Custom Roms (Arrow, Prism barebone), the problem recurred.. Why it happens whenever i install custom roms? Any ideas..
Thanks..
This is old technique or charging to switch off mobile, galaxy s4 has 2A charger option. It will charge in less then 2hrs completely, check with galaxy charginh current app. If you really want to switch off, then remove cable while switching off and then plug again hope this helps

Try titanium backup for your apps, the free version asks you to confirm every app reinstall, but it's free and saves your data plan
Have you cleared cache and dalvik cache? I updated yesterday and only lost 2% over night ?

I have clear caxhe on recovery and on fastboot, but the Device Idle always on second list after SoT...
Use titanium backup and backup all your apps and then do as freenicco suggests and factory reset. If after the factory reset your phone battery is good, load all your apps back on. Otherwise, try re-downloading the firmware and flashing again, maybe it got corrupted.
I solved this by reflash the recovery and fastboot, my recovery is corrupted...and reflash the Nougat update

SM-T280 "failed to wipe dalvik" because... encryption maybe?

Tried to root and failed
flashed SuperSU, stuck at Samsung logo
restored stock boot img.gz
tab works again
battery indicator stuck at 67%
first noticed the battery was at 67% (in TWRP) after leaving it overnight to see if it would boot past samsung logo
(( showing charge animation now tho... ))
while turned off and on stock charger, there's a battery icon with lightning bolt, but no percentage animation, and the screen doesn't sleep. this is when I suspected there was something wrong
at some point, I left it plugged to the PC USB for quite a while
after regaining access to my encrypted OS, the battery indicator would not budge from 67%
battery stats show a 'zero' gap between (normal lumpy discharge graph) and (solid horizontal line), followed by (45 degree decline prediction)
there's a thread somewhere out there that recommended wiping Dalvik cache to fix battery issue. In TWRP, used Wipe -> Advanced -> Dalvik + Cache.
FAIL
I wonder if the stock recovery would support mounting encrypted partitions, you know, being proprietary to Samsung and all.
Is there any way to flash just the stock recovery, or boot from one on the fly?
ALRIGHT! seems to be charging now. 67% to 69% in three minutes. have to wait and see if it will drain properly.

Why would any of your partitions be encrypted?

? because I enabled device encryption ?
I think turning it off and leaving it for a few minutes reset the battery state, so that's nice
mmm to be clear, TWRP was unable to clear the Dalvik. No success/fail message regarding the Cache partition, so maybe it didn't try after tripping over Dalvik. My suspicion was that the partition(s) were also encrypted. Reading around here a little, and it seems that TWRP doesn't support flashing encrypted devices, or at least the T280. Am I right?
trefrog said:

Right, I see. the T280 doesn't come with encryption enabled by default.
There's your issue. TWRP doesn't support SAMSUNG encryption. You've locked yourself out of the /data partition and thus cannot wipe the dalvik cache either. Flashfire can probably do it though.
/Cache isn't encrypted, so that can wipe fine.
Thanks for the good info!
Everything is "fine" now, and back the way it was. not rooted tho. except now I have twrp, so that's nice. So I will have to disable encryption in order to use this root method... or are there other pitfalls going down that road?

You don't necessarily need to remove encryption to root, but you MUST flash the patched boot image straight after.
so.. I was wrong then. The reason my root attempt didn't work was not because of encryption? I must have failed to follow directions...

how to format completely the oneplus 6t?

Hello everybody,
How could I format completely the oneplus 6t? And reinstall a fresh stock rom?
Wipe data, install full ota in twrp.
Or use msm download
Have to missuse your thread for my question since it's pretty related, sorry!
Is msm also completely deleting the internal battery calibration/stats?
The battery stats are kept in a chip on the battery. Just use MSM to format the device completely or flash the OTA as bladestonez said.
You can boot into Qualcomm download mode flash a fresh stock ROM using your PC.
Would installing full ota of stock rom via TWRP also lock the bootloader?

No. Only way to do that is to to go into fastboot mode and input the command to lock the bootloader. It will, however, remove root privileges.

Battery stats are only numbers, no need to erase them. It's just a tool to evaluate the battery life based on past data. They don't drive battery usage.

Never reaching the min and max will shrink the usable battery range since the chip "forgets" the possible max and min values.
That's at least what I thought?

I believe the 6t uses a lithium ion (li-ion) battery. As far as I know, li-on batteries don't have "memory" like lipo batteries do. So charging habits shouldn't mess with it at all.

Do NOT format system
Format data aka factory reset
Install full ota not incremental

Okey! But will it be enough to start again from zero?
Or do you suggest the method with msm? (which i find it more difficult)

You will be fine msm is not required. Only difference you'll notice between the two is msm relocks the bootloader do you then have to unlock and install twrp again.
