Well I was hoping someone had some ideas with my battery issues. It's hard to pinpoint exactly what it is without root, but here is what I can provide. Any help would be awesome!
That surely is bad battery life there. Try an FDR (factory data reset) and that should fix your problem most likely or disable as much bloat ware including Motorola stuff and see if that helps. Most likely though you will need a factory data reset
......or try wiping cache in recovery, that worked for me
I'll give the cache wipe a shot and report back. As for disabling bloat, I went through and gave it a real good scrub over the weekend and I'm still seeing these terrible numbers. I'm hoping to hold off on the factory reset until lollipop comes out, since it's recommend you factory reset when going to lollipop, but who knows when that will be.

Does anyone get worked Data On Demand application on CM7 nightlies for SGS1? For me works few hours with great results and after I got very poor signal, or no signal at all. After a factory reset, and dalvik cache wipe, then restore a backup everything is back to normal. It is working to anyone? Should I try it once again?
I reinstall it and after 1 hour of stand by it is at 100%, I hope this time it will work. I will let you guys know about any change.
Tried searching around and have seen others with this issue but nothing has worked. Tried a clean flash of a rom and during the setup wizard its still broken.
I have pretty much done everything but done a clean flash of stock and i am gearing up to do that but i dont have high hopes.
are you using a custom kernel?

Nope...
its not that i just cant connect, its like the hardware is broken.
and just did a complete factory image flash.
still broken
I had this happen to my N6 last week. It started after running the battery completely flat so the green LED lit when I charged it. The fix having repeatedly wiping seemed to be draining battery completely again until the green LED lit when I charged it. It has worked fine ever since.

First contacted square trade as that is my insurance, they said contact Moto because it is still under warranty. Did that, Moto said they would replace it. I said i don't want to go without a phone and they said they can charge me 25 and put a 500 hold on my account but they would send the phone first. Said OK phone arrives on Tuesday.
Just as an FYI they did basically say did you factory reset it.... but that is all the trouble shooting.
If anyone is interested in my symptom. Wifi is just always stuck at "turning on" every once in a while it will be off. but when you try to turn it on it just gets stuck again.
When it is stuck you can not turn it off.

Might be worth an RMA. see my previous post.
Don't know if I'm a little too late to this post... .But it happened to my Nexus 6 too, tried everything, wipe cache, factory reset, root, delete /persist/wifi but nothing worked....
However, luck seems to be on my side when I went into Google Connectivity Services under Setting--> Apps... and wipe its cache and tried to disable it (but stopped before I did). Then reboot the phone once i wiped all the data from the Google Connectivity Services Apps and VIOLA! It's working now!
*EDIT... It worked for about an hour (allowing me to dl all the apps) but now it has failed again....
I have the same issue as soon and I unlock the bootloader
any ideas? Im going to root again the device and load a different to see if it makes any difference
I am experiencing this as well. Was working fine yesterday and when I tried to go to Android M Preview 3 this happened. Whats worse is that this is happening right after I switched from Unlimited Data on TMo to Project Fi with 3GB. Making this even more frustrating is that Project Fi support says the preview images are now compatible with Project Fi. Isn't that something they should be telling people up front?!
I'm having the same issue on marshmalow, it suddenly started to happen some weeks ago.
First times was solved with phone reboot.
Then was required to clean cache before restart
Now I've tried reclutance suggestion (delete data from google connectivity services and reboot but the problem persist?
I'm using 6.0.1 stock rom without root
I don't want to perform a factory reset
Any suggestion?
here too...close the wifi
All tried doesn't work,
Wipe cache
Wipe dalvik cache (via fastboot as I do not have a custom recovery neither unlocked the boot or root, my phone is completely original)
Also tried to delete wifi data
Any suggestion?
RMA
I'm continuing to have issues with my Motorola Nexus 6 phone.
It is running stock android 6.0.1
I never unlocked it or rooted (Sadly cause If i do so I were able to backup my apps and settings with titanium backup and restore it before a full device reset )
The problem started some weeks ago.
First symptom was that i was unable to enter on Settings -> Data usage (Every time receives an "unfortunately, settings has stopped" message)
Then some days have difficult to connect to wifi or disconnect (at that moment I didn't investigate the issue, just retry considering the issue was on router side)
After some time I realize that the problem was on the phone, specially cause it started to stuck turning on wifi, but for some days just turning off phone and turning it on again solves the issue.
With the time it becomes more and more frequent and turning it off and on didn't solve anything so I've reboot into recovery mode and perform a clear cache but it doesn't solve the issue.
Looking here and at other forums found that this issue is really common and some people solves it trough ADB with "adb shell pm clear com.android.settings" I've tried it but it didn't solve anything.
Even when many people didn't solve it with a factory reset I want to try it, but I need to be able to backup one app data (If could backup everything will be the best but at least need to backup blockchain app (Also have an issue with them as provider and couldn't log in from another device or website, just this device has a session already approved and open)
Any suggestion?
I've upgraded/downloaded to almost any possible rom and the problem is still here
Looking on forums found that is a very common issue since marshmallow in many devices (Specially Nexus)
Most people couldn't fix it but some could.
the problem is with devices macaddress that shown 02:00:00:00:00:00 and get stuck turning on
there are solutions in forums that seems to be a little bizarre like drain battery to 0 and full recharge (This one works for me once)
,others like deleting Google connectivity services cache, or deleting /persist/wifi folder completely
But I found one for nexus 5 who replaces the full /persist partition with a dump and edit the files and permissions with macaddress information.
This seems to have logic and provides an explanation about why the problem persist after, factory reset or rom changing so I want to try it in nexus 6.
Could someone provide me a dump of it?
There is an app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...nam.partitions, that makes the process of making a partition backup easy. The persist partition is on /dev/block/mmcblk0p26
Thanks in advance
Did you solve your problem? Because I have the same. Did you try to change Mac address on device?
Hello, everyone! I'm getting a real bad Idle battery drain on my note 5. I want to do a factory reset and see if that solves it. I wanted to know if the factory reset will also format my music, pictures and such other data.
Anyone?
Yes, it will. Back everything up before you factory reset.
Any advice/suggestions would be MUCH appreciated!
My problem ultimately stems from the fact that my keyboard has somehow been disabled by some errant app, most likely Google's Tap-to-Talk function, a little over a week ago now. Literally out of nowhere. I disabled the general Google App the very day the tap-to-talk function started overriding the HTC Sense keyboard everywhere, and then noticed that neither the keyboard nor the tap-to-talk function were working. I just thought that I could simply restart my phone and any glitch would be removed and my keyboard would return to its normal functioning. I was completely wrong; I haven't been able to use my phone ever since, simply because the keyboard does not come up as usual for me to enter my password, so that since then I've been completely locked out, even though the phone itself is in working order. As far as I know, I don't think that there's any way of overriding the password entry function so that I could simply get into my phone to try to fix the problem that way--but if there is any way, PLEASE LET ME KNOW.
Anyway, I have already chatted with a tech from Google Play, and when I saw that nothing worked out down that avenue, I talked with two different HTC support techs. I explained my problem to the last one and said that I would like to perform a Wipe Cache Partition, but as soon as she found out that my phone is Unlocked with S-ON, she said that there's a 50/50 chance my phone could become bricked from performing the cache wipe. She did say that it's all relative to the case, and for some, everything works out fine, while for others, not so much, so she went ahead and created a ticket for me to speak later with the higher-level HTC Developer techs. I have also already visited an actual tech place only to discover that the 2 guys working there primarily specialize in hardware and are unwilling to try any software-related fixes, because of liability issues and probably also because they just haven't got a clue.
My primary concern is losing all the data still stored on my phone, because it is still in working order, and so I feel like I have much more of a chance of somehow retrieving it NOW than if I were to proceed with the cache wipe, have it brick on me, and then be forced to figure something out with a completely broken phone.
So the main question is whether it really is that risky for me to perform a wipe cache partition, because after researching it all over the Internet, I came to the conclusion that it is a safe procedure that should not damage any personal files or information. Now I have found out that is not the case for unlocked phones, which all those tutorial articles fail to mention.
Please, if anyone knows, PLEASE tell me if it would be safe for me to perform this cache wipe on my unlocked phone. But also, if you just have ANY relevant advice to share on this general matter, please let me know.
I have already perused a pretty large quantity of sources all over the net and am growing increasingly worried at the lack of options to get my phone back into working order for me to actually be able to use it again. I decided to turn to this site's forum as a kind of near-last resort, because I am growing pretty panicked and desperate.

Wow :laugh:
Wiping the cache partition will only wipe...... the cache partition (/cache) and it will be repopulated at the next reboot. There is no reason why your phone shouldn't boot after clearing the cache. There are always some risk but its far from 50% imo.

You've said that your bootloader is already unlocked right? What about booting in a custom recovery and use ADB to pull all your important files to your computer? Or even better if you have a recent TWRP version, you'll see your phone storage from your computer and you'll be able to simply drag and drop your files to your computer.
Hello there,
Since the old days of my first android phone the Galaxy fit, I used to hard reset my phone after every major update. It keeps my phone bug free and snappy.
Currently my phone Galaxy A70 and Tab S8 receive updates on monthly basis. Unfortunately I keep on doing the same old habit of hard resetting them after every update which means I do it every month or two.
My question us how bad can this affect my device and why?
Thanks
Do you mean like force shut down the phone and then power it on? You only need to wipe cache data on newer phones that usually fixes issues.

No I mean boot into recovery, wipe data, wipe cache then reboot. Same like you do before installing a custom ROM. Is doing it once every month is bad for the device?
I never tried to wipe the cach only, is it effective?

Well wiping data wouldn't that wipe your photos, music, documents and so on? I have heard wiping only cache helps some times.
I don't know if it's bad for the device, but I do think it's excessive. I haven't purposely wiped a phone before a major update in the last 5+ years, and even before then, it was only major updates such as a completely new Android version.
Well In the old days when I used to be a Flashoholic I flashed my devices every two or three days in the search for a perfect ROM and of course could never find it.
Short answer what you're doing is not necessarily harmful but In the long run you're putting more use and unnecessary stress and cycles to your device battery life span. Flashing/factory reseting/ setting up the device as new take a lot of battery.
Those are my two cents on the matter.

Sorry for the late response. Yes, it wipes everything. I do backup of my photos and documents on a flash memory before I do the hard reset. Anyway I'll try using the wipe cache only and see the reults.

Yes, you're probably right. I remember my phones burning hot while setting up after the reset. Too much battery strain. My also affects memory integrity. Thanks for the help.
