GPS always kills the battery lol ...

I have it turned off all the time unless i needed it

I have no problem on default setting, GPS is not on when app does not need to use it...

After upgraded to kitkat, sometimes i notice half a sec lag when starting Chrome... nothing major, but i never have this problem with jellybean... not sure whats wrong, i did some benchmark... hmm seem like nothing major to worry about..

Jellybean 1.5ghz: 24579

Kitkat 1.5ghz: 24389

Was using a different version of Antutu thought... the old one does not really have dalvik score and all... so i m actually wondering if i got a lower performance... hmm.gif

walaoeh, updated to 4.4.2. My battery life has worsen. When i was with 15% battery life, just catting on fb. for about 3 minutes, it straight went down to 0%. and it died on me just like that. With jelly bean, or previous version of kitkat, 15% battery life still can last me for 1 hour, if i just use it for chatting.

wtf google. Stop releasing bugged version of kitkat..

in this case, i recommend you to calibrate your battery. drain it to 0 and fully charge it 1 time.

u can search for battery calibration app in play store, for me, i use this but it require root access, not sure about others
*
no. don't use any battery calibration tool. what it does is simply delete batterystats.bin, as described by the tool itself:

"Calibration needs to be done after flashing a new ROM, but you can calibrate any time you think your battery is miscalibrated. This program does it by removing the batterystats.bin system file."

this file will not affect your battery status, source:

https://plus.google.com/1050519857382802618...sts/FV3LVtdVxPT

so, no need to use any tool. simply drain your battery to 0. and full charge it back to calibrate. don't do this regulary. li-ion / pol life is shorten when you always drain to 0%.

according to this:

http://www.ehow.com/info_8653790_did-mobil...ry-bloated.html

battery got bloated could be due to water or heat. do you have a habit of charging the phone in the car (may be not so much about irregular voltage but more like it's hot)?

about car charging.. No... coz sometimes is my younger brother to use it sad.gif

so far that is can replaceable or just need to change the battery?

and ask you guys some questions
if i went to LG sc, they charge how much the glasses n battery hmm.gif
*
ohh.. just curious how NOT to get my battery bloated biggrin.gif thanks for the info... about price, it's in first page:

As screen cracking are not within the warranty's coverage, both local and US sets will be charged by LG Malaysia (at Kelana Jaya Service Centre or other branches, call them up to check) for screen replacements, according to most forummers here whom had repaired their cracked screen.

Front-Screen Replacement: RM350
Back-Glass Replacement: RM180

Non-local sets will be charged an extra of RM30 (confirmed for front-screen by damned_dude, need confirmation for back-glass)

Also, they will usually replace it on-the-spot for you (takes around 15 ~ 30 minutes) if they have ready-stocks for changing parts. You might want to give them a call before paying them a visit to save time!

flash system.img and boot.img error.. doh.gif

so, when u do this:

fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img

what did you see?

if u get <waiting for device>, that's probably mean you need a universal driver.

if u get checksum error, that mean file you download incomplete

if u get file not found, that mean you are not in the directory where u extracted the files... or also could mean you have not extract the zip...

so, which one is sit bro? biggrin.gif

checksum doh.gif so need re-dl the things?
*
before u redownload, just check if your download is complete.

to check:

1) download md5sum for your pc: http://www.pc-tools.net/win32/md5sums/

2) run this:

md5sums occam-krt16s-factory-2006f418.tgz

Make sure the md5 sum is exactly like here:

https://developers.google.com/android/nexus...ges#occamkrt16s

which, in this case: e60c3077c9bc9bd106eb3077992f0d6c

if the value is the same, no need re-download. in this case, something wrong during extraction.

once u extract everything, only 2 files really matter in this case. check if you have the following md5sum for boot.img and system.img. execute something like this:


CODE
D:\Downloads\occam-krt16s-factory-2006f418\occam-krt16s-factory-2006f418\occam-krt16s\image-occam-krt16s>md5sums *

[D:\Downloads\occam-krt16s-factory-2006f418\occam-krt16s-factory-2006f418\occam-krt16s\image-occam-krt16s\]
android-info.txt                               401badbd7ebb41543bc1a350ee665a2d
boot.img                                       76587b11dad2e2353ee3308dce8b7fa1
recovery.img                                   619dc584fd9fc29ed1a24fb841efcc48
system.img                                     0428498e9d8ef3925cf8f498d16be312
userdata.img                                   138b1b1416dc51ba7dc96a4461aa59b7


when both md5sums are correct, you should not have checksum error anymore. then just flash it:

CODE
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img

Just upgraded already... not yet try what apps will crash...

How to switch dalvik or art?
*
Enable "developer option". http://www.androidcentral.com/how-enable-d...ings-android-42

Then, go to Developer option, "Select runtime". Chose ART.

Strongly recommend you to stay with Dalvik at the moment. The benefit of ART is not that much at the moment and some app may have compatibility issue.

look like only the last step remain. if still got error, extract the image-occam-kot49h.zip into the same folder, you will get boot.img and system.img. do this:

CODE
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot format cache
fastboot reboot


note that this will not delete you existing app.

Got my N4 Jan 2013. So, it's been a year. biggrin.gif Main phone, used daily, travel everywhere with me. Overclock, undervolt and do benchmark a lot. biggrin.gif

No issue with Power button. I don't even use Swipe to lock kind of stuff. Stock ROM (self customise a little) and customised kernel.

Phone still pack a punch. Able to handle anything I throw at it.

Photo took awhile ago, no screen protector, no scratch laugh.gif

Guysssss need hwlp urgently

My screen cracked..i think the digitizer is broken
The screen is not responding at all

Is there any apps or method which I can use mouse from pc or directly to the phone to make nandroid backup of my phone?

I am rooted with custom rom. I dont have online nandroid backup installed but I have cmw. I know I can get into fastboot and boot cmw from there but without thr nandroid can I make a nandroid backup via cmw?

If I can use mouse to unlock the screen(just slide gesture) also would be nice since I have few appointments by today and I dont have any means to call them and dont have any spare phone with micro sim. I havent backup my contacts to gmail also sad.gif
I tried googling xda forum but im just really stressed out now
Cant pickup or make calls cant check whatsapp msg from client
Does anyone tried otg cable with nexus 4 to connect to . Mouse before? Will it work with the latest kitkat?

I still have the warranty. Will lg cover this? If not how much to replace? Sigh might as well get a nexus 5 now

To backup all your data/app/sms:

CODE
adb shell
su
dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/userdata of=/sdcard/data.img
adb pull /sdcard/data.img


To restore it all after you fresh install android:

CODE

adb push data.img /sdcard/
adb shell
su
dd if=/sdcard/data.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/userdata


Make sure you have enough diskspace.

ps: edited for last dd command... sweat.gif
pss: use screencast to control android from mouse. screencast no need root, but to control using mouse, need root: https://code.google.com/p/androidscreencast/
psss: possible to control without root using:
adb input command:

CODE
adb shell input text <string>
adb shell input keyevent <key code number or name>
adb shell input tap <x> <y>
adb shell input swipe <x1> <y1> <x2> <y2>
