[Q] What is eating my battery on Nexus 5? topic

Let me get straight to the point.

Nexus 5 Lollipop 5.0.2, with xTrasmooth ROM with no problems with battery whatsoever... but suddenly I get around 16% drained overnight when I would get much less before.

After a clean install, the only thing I did was install alpha xPosed with a few modules (Xgels, Gravity, Youtube adaway, Youtube background enabler).

Can anyone tell me how to show logs or look for wakelocks and things like that to show battery stats?

All I have is this:

Nexus 5 microphone only works in speakerphone topic

Hello everyone,

I am having a major problem with my Nexus 5’s microphone (LG-D820). Before I continue, I have searched for threads with the same issue but none appears to be the same, despite being similar. I keep finding that others mention that other people can hear them as if they're distant from the phone. Others mention a fix by plugging in headphones and toggling speakerphone as a fix. None of these are true for my device. I found a bug report thread on Google’s bug list for AOSP (https://code.google.com/p/android/is...etail?id=80251) but it has a small priority with no resolution to the issue.

Onto the issue: The microphone does not work at all unless I make a phone call and activate the speakerphone. Even sound recording apps or Google’s voice recognition search does not work. I have noticed that there is a 2 second static when trying to record audio using sound recorder, which is amplified by covering the mic on the top of the phone.

Since the mic appears to work on speakerphone, I figured it couldn’t be a hardware problem. I tried restoring back to Google’s original build (4.4 KRT16M) for the nexus 5 to see if it was an issue with 5.0.1 and I had no luck. I literally tried every single build released by Google (KOT49H, KTU84M, KTU84P, LRX210, and LRX22C) and I have had no luck. I even went as far as installing Sailfish OS and Firefox OS to see if a non-android OS would fix the issue. No luck.

Desperate for a fix, I purchased the Charging USB Port Dock Connector Mic Flex Cable (for reference: http://www.ebay.com/itm/111297706019) to replace my old one and it didn’t fix anything of course.

At this point, I’m all out of options and afraid that I’ll have to buy another phone. I seriously do not want to stray from the nexus 5 but I don’t know what else to do.
Does anyone have idea what else I could try to fix the issue? Even any thoughts on why a non-android OS wouldn’t fix the issue are welcome. Thanks in advance guys.

[Q] Nexus 5 [What After Rooting?] topic

Hello Friends.
I know what could be done on iphone after jailbreaking using cydia. But from past few days I have been using Nexus 5 and decided to root it.
But I'm bit confused, what is next to customize my phone as everyone on internet claims that it gives us full access. Please share some of your knowledge.

[Q] Nexus Fails to Stay Powered in System topic

Background: I had my completely stock Nexus 5 on the charger for around an hour. When it got near 100%, it locked up for about 5 seconds and powered off. It wouldn't charge or power on again until 2 days later where it would power up but not charge. It could go to the bootloader/recovery but it would still shut down. The charger used won't charge anything anymore, it may have been a power surge that messed it up.

I replaced the battery and the system is still unable to maintain power but recovery and the bootloader are stable (just formatted the cache and the phone did not power off, took around 15 minutes). Now it won't power up again.

Any idea what the issue could be? Could it be corrupted data?

Nexus 9 Pairing with Folio Keyboard topic

I'm finding the pairing of the Folio Keyboard with my Nexus 9 to be problematic. I'm not sure if this is because there's an issue with NFC on either device or I'm just doing it wrong.

Pairing the keyboard using only bluetooth works but needs to be triggered by selecting the already paired with keyboard in bluetooth settings and can take 10s of seconds before it is connected. I expected that the keyboard would connect as soon as it came in range of the NFC chip, but it doesn't. I think NFC at least partially works as the keyboard is detected by the tablet as a trusted device via NFC. When I follow the directions to pair the keyboard via NFC by placing the tablet on it in the right manner it does not pair though I hear a tone when the doing it, that doesn't happen when I change the orientation of the tablet. From this I conclude that the NFC hardware works but something in my use of it, the configuration of the tablet or a system bug is stopping it working properly.

1) Is it a reasonable expectation that I can be expect once pairing has been completed that placing the tablet on the keyboard will be recognised by NFC without having to lay the tablet in the manner described in keyboard documentation?
2) Assuming the desired outcome as described above is possible will this trigger the tablet to turn on bluetooth (if it is turned off) or is it necessry for bluetooth to be either manually turned on, left on or find some other mechanism that triggers bluetooth to be turned on in order to connect the keyboard?
3) Is it a reasonable expectation that keyboard and tablet to be quickly connected (in a second or so) via bluetooth?

(Q) How to connect HDD to Nexus 7? topic

So I just bought my Nexus 7 yesterday and it's really nice. I bought an OTG cable to connect my keyboard dock. It worked perfectly but I am now trying to connect an IDE 320GB HDD using a Sabrent HDD SATA/IDE to USB adapter. I managed to get it connected only ONCE for a second or two to the tab. Using StickMount it told me that the drive was located in SDA1 but I am trying to look for but nothing is there mounting it again in StickMount shows that there is no drive connected. I have it hooked up to a power supply and I can hear it whirring so I don't know what the problem is. Pic:

[q] nexus 5 black screen ( fastboot only) topic

I had my nexus 5 using multirom manager i had liquid smooth and paranoid android roms on it and i flashed ubuntu too the phone was working fine on all of the three roms.. the only issue i had was the microphone that wasn't working on phone calls but it worked only on speakers so i tried to change the mic piece and same the mic wasn't working. So i thought that it was something wrong with the software and i tried to flash a different kernel (Franko Kernel ) and i tried to flash couple GAPPS and nothing still with the mic problem and in the ROM i had a message that says com.play.services not responding so i tried to go on play store and upgrade the services and the play store wasn't working so i dowloaded some play services from chrome, after i installed the apt file i tried to reboot the phone and as soon as i did the reboot the screen had some rainbow an gray colored lines all over the screen horizontal and vertical lines, after that the screen was only black but i could see the backlight on it. I tried to restore stock with fast boot and still nothing i restored android 4.4.4,5.0,5.0.1 and nothing happen the screen was still black, the only thing was that the phone was able to be seen on fast boot and so i thought that the problem was the screen or the flex cable so i tried to buy a new screen i did ordered it from eBay and last night i changed the screen, but nothing worked I'm still having the black screen and the phone is still going on fast boot mode but I'm not able to use my phone... PLEASE HELPPP !!!!

[Q] Nexus 5 wont turn on topic

Im sorry if someone has already posted this but I need help.

I rooted my N5 using a simple guide of drag and drop so i could use appradio.
I followed a video on youtube to remove the bar at the bottom of the screen which worked by adding something to the end of the build.prop.
After doing it- it worked but i thought i would be able to bring it back by deleting that line of information on the build.prop. Now the phone will not turn on at all.

I can load into the bootloader but will not start recovery- just an android sign with a red triangle. Turning it on normally will only load up a black screen so i think it must be something to do with the OS?

I tryed following a guide to fix it to do with the fastboot mode but found that it didnt work as it was not as up to date.
Heres the details if it makes sense to some of you:
bootloader version is HHZ12d
basebamd version M8974A-2.0.50.2.22
variant hammerhead D821 (E) 16GB
HW version- rev_11

I am not very technically minded but any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Zack

Does your Nexus 6 lag? topic

So maybe its just me, but my nexus 6 is SOOOOOO DAMN LAGGY!!!!! When i first got my nexus i was so excited. Being a galaxy note user since the original i am very familiar with the "touchwiz lag" but i will say the lag on the nexus 6 is absolutely the worst i have EVER seen. I own a nexus 6 and a note 4 and i will say my note 4 is in another league. I have 0 issues or lag on my note 4 but my nexus 6 struggles to exit out my hangouts app and go to the home screen. Am i the only one?

PS. I am running stock rooted roms on BOTH the note 4 and nexus 6.

NExus 7 hydis screen topic

HI Guys

My nexus 7 digitizer is now broken , the screen is ok but only with a fine crack but the touch is completely busted

anyway the repair shop offered me a replacement for both screen and digitizer but unfortunately i lookied it up and the brand was ( CHUNGHWA) the original is (HYDIS) and i could not find that hydis anywhere

my question is , did anyone replace the screen with that CHUNGHWA and found any difference regarding color depth and quality , resolution ...etcc...? because one of the main reasons i like my nexus is the screen

i was also offered another generic screen replacement from another guy that told me that it was a copycat for original for a mch lower price but i am not sure

PS , i also found a digitizer online but i am not sure if the digitizer onl ycan be replace


thanks a lot guys
