Hello All
Two issues - wondering if any one could help. Don't know if they are related.
1. The battery life is very poor. It charges up to 100% but shuts down sometimes around 30-40% , and definitely doesn't last beyond 25% ever.
2. I keep getting notifications that the latest version of the OS has been downloaded, but when I tell it to upgrade, it tries something, reboots and then throws a message that the upgrade failed.
the current baseband version is n915gddu1dpb6
The downloaded version number is : n915gxxu1dpe1 / n15godd1dpe1/ n915gddu1dpb6 > n915gxxs1dpf1 / n915gxxs1dpf1 / n915godd1dpe2 / n915gddu1dpb6
I am not even sure if the downloaded version is really new.
Any ideas ?

E:could not find update-binary
i guss it is the recovery i use
so please help me installing this update
ps: i will post the link to the update.zip as soon as i upload it
you may want to use the motorola software update tool installed to your pc. I also encountered the same problem as yours, but when i did this method, i was able to update my phone. hope this helps.
i have forget to mention that when i use the software it tells me that there is no update for my phone
Any change in this update anyway?
Thanks.
ya i heard it make u lose root for good closes loop holes in software don't do it!!
I updated via PC (MotoConnect) and lost root, but 2.1 root method still works, so I just rooted it again..
The battery usage from new firmware patch is crazy; 50% gone overnight. The most of usage is from "phone Idell". I should wait.
That's most likely a one time deal: I had similar in the update from 2.0.1 to 2.1 (or was it 2.0 -> 2.0.1..?). First night almost ran the battery dry, but after the next recharging cycle (and maybe a reboot) things were normal again. That's actually a fairly common issue judging from various milestone/android forums..
Also: all I noticed after this update was a small increase in battery life :]
Hi Peter,
are you in 3G or 2G mode?
I'm mostly on 2G.
Hi all,
Just a heads up, click on your ota update button and there is a present for you, fully charged battery is must, 15 mins to install.

I wonder if it could be to do with installing that performance package that was linked in Android Development.
Thats true is it easy to remove and then try again
Dont install this update if you have clockwork recovery mod installed (4.0.0.9 here), my phone rebooted to install the update, instead it booted recovery and now I cant get out (update or recover via the LG app in emergency mode etc...) seems my phones bricked till a compatible update for clockwork comes out.
Updated flawlessly, used 21% battery and took 10 minutes to update... not sure what the difference is,i was on 2.2.2 before the update.
Any idea what has been updated.
Sent from my LG-P920 using XDA App
I am updating too right now....any one noticed any change ? even at perfomance ?or at battery ?

I restored with LG recovery but is now stuck on a screen "Firmware Update in progress" but nothing happens, it may be that aspects of a full battery charge?

Hmm, I restored my firmware to the original V10b from june because I had ClockWork installed an the phone was rooted.
Everything went perfect though I get a message that I already have the latest firmware version when I try to update through the phone. The LG Mobile Support Tool tells me there's an update but when I try to install it it says my phone is not supported.
Hello everyone!
Guys for me in Sweden the update is not available yet. When I run the LG Mobile Support Tool it finds an update for my device but then when I click on it to start the updater, I get a no updated version found message. Is this update available worldwide or?
Hello,
I have a Galaxy S6 running the latest 6.0.1 XEF stock ROM (no root) before Nougat.
I have choosen not to update to Nougat for the moment as I prefer to wait for better Nougat releases.
I was quite sure the settings of my S6 were set in order to disable search/install of updates. But yesterday, while connected to my network using Wifi, my S6 has started to download the Nougat updates! But, as I said, I don't want it for the moment. I stopped Wifi, then it stopped downloading the updates. I tried to go to the update settings of the S6 to disable updates but it is not possible now to go the "About device > Software update". And each time I connect to WIFI, it resumes the download of the update .
In the application manager, I found 2 apps related to "Software update": for only 1 of them it is possible to stop it and remove cache and data, which I did. I thought I would have cancelled the download of Nougat update and bring me back the possibility to disable update. But unfortunately, it has no effect. I also tried to wipe cache partition, but the same: it has no effect and each time I connect Wifi, it resumes the download of the update.
So, how I can cancel the download of the update and be able to access to the settings to prevent from downloading/installing it??
Thank you for you help!
There's no need, Nougat is stable now.
If you still doesn't want, let it download the update (because you can't cancel it) then block notifications from both updates apps from the settings.

Really? Latest release for XEF has still the same changelist and I read several complains regarding battery life and lags into the Gallery app for example...

I had very bad battery life on Nougat, i was on UAE firmware. When i bought this second S6 i made a decision to stop using custom roms so i tried to flash another firmware, took the last XEF ( from April) and flashed it 2 weeks ago, my battery improved a lot specially in standby , no issues or whatsoever.
Thanks for your feedback!
phone is full, now what?
Sorry to hijack this thread, but it seems the best fit.
Basically the same question as above: "How do I cancel an OS update download in progress" on my Samsung S6
Reasoning is a little different though. Accidentally I started the update process but during the download my phone ran full.
And as you might know, with a full phone some apps dont work.
Of course Android gives me the option to remove files and apps but immediately the free space is occupied by the running update....
Any ideas?
tia!
First thing i searched everywhere and find out am the only one with this problem....
The problem start after Oreo update first with random restarts and finally freezing screen.
i am now on Oreo update U4 september and the phone is very unstable with rabdom restarts and freezing on a black screen THAT EVEN DONT RESPOND TO FORCE RESTART !!!
So i need to wate till the phone loss all is battery then charging it, power it on to be able to flash official rom again and agian everytime this happen.
the phone can hold sometimes for 400-600 hours after flashing the offical rom and the the problem occure again
i start to believe theres something wrong with Oreo on this phone..So the last thing to do to make sure there is nothing wrong with Hardware i need to Downgrade to Nougat 7 but when i do that using Oden (flashing AP and BL) it show me error ..So i hope someone can help me with another method to downgrade to Nougate or even figure out whats the main problem that cause all this...
sorry for my bad english hope you can help

Since your on bootloader version 4 (u4) you won't be able to downgrade to nougat which is why you are getting errors in Odin. When flashing firmware do you use CSC or home CSC.
Not sure if it's hardware related or not but if you are getting up to 400 - 600 hrs out of it I would say it:s software related. There are some apps on playstore for hardware test to try if you like. One issue I have had is the processor running to hot and causes me some issues to the point you can't do anything until it cools down.

This weird behavior doesnt have a constant form... most of the time the freezing happen during the first few minuts during setup device ...FORGET TO MENTION ....in TWRP recovery the device is feeling very well and run smooth without any issue at all... is there something to do now in your openion can solve this?

I would think if it is hardware related than the issues would also happen in recovery and/or download mode. I have heard of other people having issues when flashing firmware with home CSC.
Some things I would personally try are:
1. You could try smart switch and check for latest firmware or recovery option.
2. Run in safe mode see if that makes a difference
3. In recovery wipe cache/dalvik and reboot
4. In recovery factory reset
5. Flash firmware again with CSC not home CSC.
Problems with options 1,4,5 is you will need to backup your apps and data etc. Option 5 you will have to reinstall twrp.
These options aren't in any order so I would start with 3 first see how it goes then 2 see how it goes then ,1,4 and 5 and see how it goes for each step.
Let me know how it goes

Actually steps 1,3,4,5 all have been tried before without making difference but i never tried to run in safe mode (step 2)... i should tried it.... but now i cant cause one of the freezing form and the most occuring one is when blue screen with android logo at the center that appear befor the samsung logo (trying to erasing data befor the first boot after flashing a new rom)...so i have to download a nother oreo firmware from sammobile to make it run ...sorry if i make it complicated for you but this is how my device acting very weird....
Do you think its somthing wrong with Oreo in this s8+ that can be solved when downgraded to Nougat or Upgaraded to Pie maybe?

its froze right now it cant even get to samsung logo...and even if i flash the ROM again and get it work it will freez after maximum 600 hours (thats happened 3 times)
Phone: G930FD
ROM: G930FOZS5ESG5
Maybe this question is asked by many guys here. I follow their instructions to reboot, re-flash via odin and factory reset for the phone. Nothing improvement.
I see the update for the ROM for ESL9 in Jan 2020. However, root is must for my daily use so I worry for the lost of my root after upgrade and the process is irreversible since the BL will be upgraded.
The android system battery drain is 30% for 8 hours during my sleep. The phone is also hotter in normal use (chat and web browsing only, no Youtube or video watching) when compare the ROM in android 7.
Any helps? I still dont want to buy a new phone as Samsung really want us to buy !
It never happens in android 7.
Great thanks.
