Poor battery life on a rooted phone



Hi guys, I just bought a z3 from a friend, and I have some battery problem

On 5.1.1, my battery only last for a day, which is under my expectation for the z3. Note that I only use my phone when necessary, location, mobile data, nfc, bluetooth, wifi are always off when I don't need them. I lend my mother's z3v and its battery life was excellent, I compared the 2 phone by watching a youtube clip for 10 minutes, with only wifi on, the z3v only lost 1% battery while my z3 lost 3-4% each time. But according to cnet (sorry I can't post links yet), the z3's battery have a slight edge over the z3v. Why is this happening?

Anyway, I downgrade my z3 to kitkat, rooted it, install setcpu, greenify, wakelocks detector, I also use disable service. Like before, all the phone functions are off when I don't need them, all unnecessary apps are deleted. However, my phone battery is still nowhere near the non-rooted z3v. I have a feeling that the battery drain faster below 85%, when it reached 15%, it loses 1% every 30 seconds. Moreover, the z3v only loses 1% over night (sometimes not at all) in airplane mode, while my z3 loses about 3-4%.

What do you guys think? Is this a problem with the phone's battery? Can my friend damaged the battery in his six months of using?
Sorry if my English is hard to understand, I tried my best to describe the problem

Poor Wifi Issues?



Hey gang,

Any Note 5 owners experiencing any wifi connectivity issues? I've found that the connection becomes completely unresponsive if I lose a single bar of wireless signal, and even during regular usage with full signal, the wifi connection will just drop off and reconnect back to the access point. I took a Galaxy Note 2, a Nexus 6, and the Note 5 to one of the spots where 1 bar drops, the Note 2 and Nexus 6 have no issues and still get 120Mbit on Speedtest. The Note 5 just times out until I get the signal back up to full strength.

I've made sure Smart Network Switch is disabled, and I don't see anything to disable any Wifi optimizations so I'm guessing that isn't an option anymore.

Regards,
--Henry

Really poor performance



Hi,

My S6 Edge G925 is slow as... Well. Chrome browser takes 3-4 seconds to start, Snapchat is actually feeling retarded as the response is so slow - all in all, the phone really doesn't impress when it comes to performance.

I'm currently at 5.1.1 (newly factory wiped), and I close all apps a couple of times a day. Doesn't really help much. I don't have any obscure apps running - I've got Messenger, Facebook, Snapchat and Instagram installed (aside the standard factory apps) - so wouldn't expect any of those to be the cause.

Is there some known bug - and maybe a fix for this? It's really annoying owning a flagship phone and getting mid-range Huawei performance.

Poor battery life after switching to T-Mobile?



What's up guys,

so I have a Motorola Moto Maxx XT1225 running 5.0.2 stock (rooted) and I'm currently getting only about 3hs of screen on time.

I really don't know why or when this happened, but I used to get around 6~ average.

The only thing that changed is my carrier (I switched to T-Mobile). But still, I'm always with solid LTE signal / WiFi.

Ideas? Thanks



Poor signal



Do you guys have poor data coverage with your LG G3s? I don't know what it is with these new phones, my Thunderbolt used to have LTE almost everywhere I went, and when I lost it, 3G picked up instantly so I almost never lost mobile data. The phone I just switched from, a Samsung Note 3, and now the LG G3 seem to have terrible data. It barely picks up any LTE signal, and constantly drops to 3G and then loses data all together, then when I lose data, I need to turn off mobile data and turn it back on again. Is this a bug with lollipop? I am currently running Jasmine 8.0 on my G3 and was completely stock on the Note 3 no root nothing running Lollipop 5.0.

Poor touch-screen performance with tempered glass screen protectors



I have noticed that the touch-screen performance is poor with the tempered glass screen protectors which I have tried. I notice that with the tempered glass protector installed that the digitizer will often lose track of your finger when held down. Here is an example with Angry Birds of what happens:

The above video was taken with a cheap 0.3mm thick tempered glass screen protector from eBay ( http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/261962820490 ).

Therefore, I also tried a 0.24mm thick tempered glass protector from Orzly ( http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00OFVM88M ). This was a bit better, but is still giving similar problems.

I think we need to find a way to be able to tweak the sensitivity of the digitizer to be able to compensate for the addition of a tempered glass screen protector, because I don't think they work nearly as well as people here make out. Does anyone know where to look in the Android settings/system to be able to adjust the digitizer sensitivity appropriately?
