Galaxy Nexus Watering Hole

If you've been following my power saga you'll know that I have been waking up to a dead battery the past few days. I changed out the extended battery with the standard battery yesterday, and hooked her up last night. Guess what happened?

I woke up to a dead battery! :(
^--- Hidden for dramatic effect :D

I'm down to TWO options:

(a) The phone's charging circuits are bad. This means a new Nexus... and don't think for a minute that I won't unlock and root that sucker so I can make full backups! BTW, has anyone successfully restored a backup from one phone onto a replacement phone? :thinking:

(b) The charging CABLE is bad, per Copacetic. That's the preferred problem.

SO... tonight we'll try one more time. I happen to have a spare charging cable lying around so I'm going to do one more night with the new cable. If Ginny wakes up tomorrow with a full charge, then Verizon's out $30 for a cable and not $700 for a Nexus.

*SIGH*

Greetings all.

Can someone tell me the main features of B31? I'm on Patient Zero M1, and the coolest things are the weather panel, customizable navbar icons, and Beats integrated. Is B31 the same thing, or does it have other features?

Also, BB, if you find Nexie going into random reboots again or freezing up, try increasing the voltages by about 25 each. That should fix it.

No Beats on AOKP B31 that i'm aware of. Weather Panel and lockscreen weather, lockscreen calendar events, customizable navbar icons and lockscreen icons, customizable clock in status bar, power saver mode, and custom toggles in pull-down are the main features I use.

I did this when I exchanged my first Nexus thinking the mic issue was hardware-related. I was able to copy a nandroid backup from one phone to another (same model) and restore it on the new hardware.

Hopefully it won't come to that for you, but it's nice knowing it can be done if necessary. :)

Ah okay, gotcha. Yeah, it seems like DroidTh3ory is using a lot of AOKP's features. Beats and Sony Bravia engine are baked in; I THINK I can tell a difference is movie watching, but not sure, lol.

Hey all, so back at work, feeling better, except it hurts to breath, apparently from the abdominal and chest muscles I strained from my uhh... sickness. Still no appetite though.

So here is an interesting little tidbit I noticed today. When I unplug my phone, and allow the screen to turn off, if I wait a few minutes to turn back on, it reports that it is connected to 4G. But it immediately loses signal and cycles back to 3G once I turn the screen back on... Any comments?

I'm on B28 with Lean 2.7
I haven't touched the settings in set CPU this round. I'm thinking its almost time to jump to B31 and see what happens.

That is odd to get the random reboot since you haven't tweaked Nyxie recently. But you're right, now might be a good time to jump to B31.

As my mother always told me, "Don't forget to wipe" (Mom was weird)

BTW, I've been thanked 999 times. Who's going to push me over?
