Cannot change GPS to High Accuracy

I've tried searching for this through the forums but can't seem to find anything about it.

Whenever I try to switch my GPS to High Accuracy, it goes directly back to Device Only. I honestly do not mind that it does this because it saves battery, but I would like the option to sometimes switch back to high accuracy. Anyone have a solution?

Did the PE1 update fix the High Android System usage? Is it safe to update with root?

I rooted my phone with the correct methods as in the threads below mine, and I purposely havent updated my phone for a while, just in case the root would only work for older system versions.

I'm just curious to know if, now that I'm rooted, is it safe to update to PE1, and will it fix the Android System battery drain? I've also downloaded all the root fixes too, as well as the Debloat, so my original System Updates app doesn't work anymore.

I would love to get just some answers from the pros on this before possibly bricking or boot looping my amazing phone. :)

Thanks!

High data usage for Xperia systems app

While looking through my latest data usage stats for my week old Xperia X performance I discovered that the apps Xperia Configurator and Xperia Chinese Keyboard uses an absurd amount of data. In the short time I've owned it the Configurator app managed to use 316 MB of background data while the keyboard has used 215 MB of foreground data of all things. Out of curiosity I checked the WiFi usage and saw that keyboard managed to rack up 426 MB of data usage.

Being unable to read and write Chinese, I can guarantee you that I've never activated the keyboard. That said; it's a keyboard, why would it require 641 MB of data transfer over the course of a week? I find it mighty suspicious and was hoping somebody could shed some light on the issue.

Also, I've never used the Configurator app, as it seems to be aimed for business.

Google Play Services, Samsung S II epic touch and high battery use

Have a Samsung S2 Sprint Epic Touch D710, Android 4.0.4. One day things were working fine in the morning, then in the early evening while sitting idle, the battery low warning sounded. Pick up the phone and it was very hot. First thought the battery was just bad so I installed a new one once it cooled and charged it. Turn it on and it gets very hot while at idle, and just hot while in use.

Started looking and found "Google Play Services" was at the top in Battery use. The use changes values, but usually in the high 60's to 70's percent range. Also see "Android System" sometimes fights for the top in use with "Google Play Services". And a few times "Android OS" will be above "Screen" in the Battery menu.
While searching for a fix I tried the "clear cache" fix and it did not help. Then I ran across "GSeviceFix" app so I installed that and it did not help at all. I read about starting in Safe Mode so one I figured out how to do that, the phone would not overheat and the battery drain was gone. But my phone service provider (freedompop) app would not work proper and Gmail does not work proper while in Safe Mode.

I found here that a "Fix" was to install "Disable Services" app and disable two Google Location services. I rooted using Kingo (I rooted before I tried the "GServicesFix") and disabled these two services. Not a fix!
Also notice that when I first turn the phone on, it seems to stay cool and no battery drain. But once I open Gmail (have not tried other apps to see if the affect in the same way), even if I close it in the app manager, the phone starts to warm and the battery drain continues. This seems to happen if I do so much as to go into Apps-Settings-Battery just to see what is at the top (Usually Google Play Services). So I don't think it is just related to Gmail.

I also uninstalled all the apps that I never used and were disabled. Google Music, Google+, Google Books, Giggity Giggity Google, Sprint Nascar. . . All that junk. Then I did a Factory Reset. Installed the Gmail app but could not use it as it needs Google Services. As soon as I installed Google Play Services, the heat was on and the battery drained fast. I also tried to limit data usage for the Google Play service but that also did not help.

If no one has an answer to why and what to do about Google Play Services drain on the battery, maybe someone can answer what does not come one when started in "Safe Mode"? I suppose since it is a third party app, I cant look at what is running and what is not with the "Disable Services" App. It does not show on the phone when in Safe Mode.
If I knew what was not starting when in Safe Mode, perhaps I could try turning those things off with the Disable Services app one at a time or so until the drain slows down or sets things as it should be with "Screen" at the top of the battery use list and not in 4th place.

High Brightness Mode Widget

Hello all!

I've recently updated High Brightness Mode Widget to work with the OnePlus 3.

If you find it difficult to read your screen outdoors, then this widget will help.

With one click you can force on or off a special hardware setting for AMOLED screens called "High Brightness Mode" which makes the screen as bright as possible.

The widget can be double tapped to start auto mode, which will automatically enable high brightness mode in bright conditions. I have specially tuned auto mode to work reliably and practically. It won't turn on unless you are in the sun or a very bright light shines onto your screen. More importantly, it won't turn on and off rapidly if you move into shadows.

• Simple and extremely light (uses only about 3 or 4 MB of memory)


• Requires root


• Works with stock kernel and custom kernels on the OnePlus 3

High Uptime problems

Alright, so I've been using my S7 edge (SM-G935F) for around 930 hours so far without restarting and installing the new update that came out a few days back.

Since I didn't restart my phone quite a long time I experienced that it's not that smooth as it is normally. For example the gallery when opening an album isn't smooth with loading and sorting the pictures, it's more like 4 frames that build up the photo overview.
In addition I noticed that the battery is draining a bit more.

Does somebody experienced it as well?
And is there any "fix" to solve the laggy gallery for example?

Block Hopp Android - My first app which I made in 3 months during high school -Arcade

Hey Guys,
Using unity and C# I made my first game over the course of the past 3 months - "Block Hopp", which I think can get really popular due to its addictive style like most of Ketchapp's games.

Do you guys mind telling me what you think about my game and helping me spread it? Feel free to ask me any questions at all.

You can look up "Block Hopp" on Google Play or on the iOS App Store

play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.topgengames.blockhopp

Thanks a lot for everybody's time.

CPU Usage high after marshmallow update

Hello everyone,

After updating my galaxy s5 to marshmallow I've been experiencing a lot of lags on my phone. The CPU usage on my phone is extremely high and as you can see in the images attached, dex2oat seems to be the main cause.

I've tried wiping my cache and even did a factory restart, but my cpu usage is still way too high. Has this happened to any if you and do you know how to fix this?

Thanks in advance for answering my question.


With kind regards,


Guillermo
