I messed up something also when trying kernels and lost network connectivity. The latest modem from here solved my problem: https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=26335 This is the link provided in the original post.

No BT either. edit: wifi hotspot bugged, won't always turn on and when it does, devices can see it but can't connect. so ... there is that Second edit: after flashing stock kernel -> ramkernel -> modem wifi, BT (although slow to aquire devices) and standby battery drain seems solved.

RC7 on stock, small drain while idle, about 1% for every 90 mins. Battery seems ok otherwise.

I debloated my stock 6.0.1 rom recently because I had weird drains overnight. Now it's ok, doesn't seem to loose anything at all over a few hours of standby (during night I recharge it usually). So yeah, uninstalling bloatware/freeze/greenify would help. Still SOT is very poor. Got worse with...

Things important for me in a phone: 1. Battery life. Or better said, real life battery life. I would like to have a few hours of SOT on 4G. 2. Also, I'd like the device to operate cool when outside is hot or when the signal is poor . No one is mentioning this in reviews but in my experience...

Hi guys. One year later the prices are way down. Now LG G6 is 360 euro in my country. Is about same price as Samsung A8, Nokia 7 Plus or Huawei P20 Lite. I'd say one year old flagship should be an obvious choice over today's midrangers. Better camera, better cpu. However, one concern looking...

I tried but suhide won't install (I get the folder but the app is missing). I'll try the Magisk rooting solution. Thanks.

I can't wait for EU to trample into the ground all these abusive companies that made us beggars. Yes, I want to rule my phone. I'm tired of loosing battery for no reason with each forced patch. Or of being a product under the pretense of personalizing offers. Or of the idiotic permissions and...

The color of the bar is not so importand. We had the bar transparent even when using power saving mod. Now it's not. Google keeps trying to deter people from messing with background data and location services. This is just the latest nuisance they came up with in this 'war'. Is not Samsung, is...

I just updated (Romania Vodafone) and I'm so pissed off that I feel like trowing the phone out through the window. Grey notification bar when on power saving ? No theme store ? And what it's with that folder look. Is looking worse and worse with each android version. Is like my daughter just...

ZenPad 8.0 Z380C. I don't know what's new. It's still on 5.0.1. New built. Yesterday I got home to find the tablet where I left over the day at updating apps screen. After the restart was done I got a message about aystem update and some others about app updates. I was thinking that maybe I...

My Zenpad just system auto updated itself when the option to do so was turned off . No one touched the tabled and it rebooted itself. I checked the data transfer and it just downloaded 1.39Gb. After restart some apps updated also, but app auto update option is turned off also. What the hell is...

I just got the phone. Actually I was waiting for Moto X Play and when it became available in stores I realised that Note 4 is at same price (both about 390 euro, vat 24% included). Obviously, I chosed Note 4, mostly because 805 easily beats 615. Not to mention that Note was rated to have a...

Will this trip the KNOX ? I suppose it will. My device seems to have Knox installed. Sorry if this was answered before.

My wife's S6 got a barrely visible red tint when you look at the display perpendiculary. If I tilt the device just a bit, the red tint will disapear. I wonder if it's worth going to service with this ... is not very noticeable. Maybe if it gets worse .... Anyway, the device is god damn amazing.

Hello, Battery problem solved. Actually, I'm amazed now by how well the phone is idling. I estimate that is loosing only 7% per day. Instead I ran into a new problem. The network is working but the data connection not. Ideas ? Edit: every code I try to execute in dialer is returning invalid...

Ok, and how to find if it's m919 ?

Hello, first time here. I have a S3 ... is not my main phone , but I wanted to keep it updated. I installed the latest TWRP, Boeffla kernel and Blekota's rom. I stumbled on some problems with the device not booting (I had an older Boeffla kernel) but in the end I sorted it out. Now, except a...

It's a post of 2000 and something pages, of which more then 100 are from February 2014. How easy do you think is for someone who is not following this thread on XDA to catch up with all the problems ? I have Knox enabled because I failed to read few hundred pages post before flashing. I...

Hell no ! If Samsung will start ditching the current setup of buttons, I'll ditch Samsung. I am pissed with knox and bloatware as it is now. No need to annoy the users furthermore. Having a tablet with onscreen navigation bar, I hate that particular aspect like no tomorrow. So much screen...

No cover of any sort, no screen protection. I like my phone to be slim and easy, if I would have wanted something bulky and ugly , I would have bought that cheaper. After more then 6 months, no scratches. I just make sure nothing metallic is around the phone. Especially in my pockets.

I upgraded my wife's phone 2 days ago. Stock theme, boeffla kernel. So far working good ... and trust me, I would be promptly informed if something was slightly wrong.

Yes, I updated the Philz recovery and flashed again archidroid 1.7.7.. All fine now

OK, I updated recovery by flashing in the old recovery (I pulled the sd-card, plugged it to computer and copied the zip file). Reflashed again 1.7.7 and worked ... after I had to pull the battery 2 times. One time it froze just after flashing and reboot, second time when installing the new...

After flashing 1.7.7 over stock (older) 4.3, it keeps rebooting to recovery. I did a full wipe before flashing (without deleting system). Any ideas ?

That doesn't sound very reassuring. It's more like saying indirectly that it does void the warranty.

How is the battery life ? I am currently on older stock TW 4.3 and battery life is awful.

This thread is more or less dead for some time. The OP didn't make an appearance in a while.

ART = Android Run Time. It is meant to replace Dalvik cache starting with Android 4.4 KitKat. Most of the apps for android (except big games) are not compiled to native code and are run by a virtual machine which interprets java+XML stuff . As you imagine, while this has great portability...

Working great on S4. Instantly fast, no crash, no lag, no hiccup. I had a selection of 250 wallpapers, but even so I was getting bored. This is a wonderful replacement. LE, one possible problem: the wallpaper is changed at each switch between landscape and portrait (happens a lot on a tablet).

This does nothing for me. But this does: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2393289

Really ? This feature is awesome !!! Look here: http://www.instructables.com/id/10-Smartphone-to-digital-microscope-conversion/

Edited.

Samsung and Google are starting to have not a healthy attitude towards their customers. Pay a visit to web or location history in google. If you are a power user, and you don't know this yet, you might have a shock. Anyway, since I had the surprise to find events auto-added in my S planner I...

Look how much is wasted with on screen buttons.

Don't upgrade yet. If you do , you will have to settle for a full stock experience or void your warranty.

Excellent work. Is looking very good. Just a question although. I have an S4 also, got a modded widget on that one too. Same mod, transparency. There is a difference between the two. On S4 I get animation, rain, clouds, etc. On S3 the widget is just displaying the text. Second, the app...

Amazing. BTW, for others like me, don't delete/rename the existing .odex file or will not work.

To what rom ?

4.3 v11 is breaking the wifi on 4.3 MJ7 ... just so you know.

GJ, thanks. Got rid of KNOX and security warnings ... finally

Working on stock 4.3 BTU MJ7 ? Knox flag 0x1 ... so I don't have to worry about that.

I didn't saw any mention of Knox, that's why I specificaly asked, to be sure. After I burned myself on S4, flashing a Knox enabled 4.2.2 stock rom, I can never be too careful.

Knox ? locked bootloader ?

I agree that 4.3 is not silky smooth, but is better then 4.2.2 stock. Some small performance loss came after I started receiving a lot of security warnings ... My guess, Knox is acting like an antivirus, anti spyware in background, scanning when the network is accessed. Hence some hangouts in...

I don't know what's the problem. What I can tell you is this. After I bought the phone, I messed with it. Usual stuff, root, custom recovery, etc. At some point, I formatted by mistake a partition from CWM Recovery. Since then I had incredible shutter while scrolling, even in contacts. Not...

I made a video test with 3 browsers, Chrome, AOSP, Dolphin: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BSO_3D4wAAU&feature=youtu.be You tell me how laggy it is.

Having your RAM used , in what ever percent is 100% , is without a hint of doubt detrimental. The idea is good, but the implementation is bad. Every app, no matter how insignificant, is trying to be resident in memory. You have to trust the work of the developer, that his app won't stay in an...

I just got a hint of lag while I was replying to a mail. Browser: I use chrome, because of the bookmarks synchronization with desktop chrome. I found it to be really pleasant to use on DTB firmware, but the battery drain was too much , plus I installed N5 launcher and apps and I didn't like...

I just tried it now. It seems ok for me. No hiccups. I am on BTU firmware. Stock launcher, stock rom, most of the things that could generate traffic in background disabled.
