    Google Play Services eating battery

    Re: Google Play Services eating battery - SOLUTION I had cloud sync on previously without any issue, so it shouldn't be causing it. I did shut it off a couple days ago, though, to see if it is the case. My battery life is back to normal now, but it also looks like Play Services just had an...

    Google Play Services eating battery

    After a couple days, it looks like it's not completely fixed for me by clearing out Fit. Partly fixed, as in instead of draining in half a day or so, it takes most of a day. But still not very near what battery life should be. Right now, Google Services (com.google.android.gms.persistent) is...

    Google Play Services eating battery

    Fit indeed seems to be the source of the problem. Funny thing is that I had seen Fit's battery usage get pretty high, so the first thing I did was uninstall it. At that point Google Services skyrocketed - almost like it took on whatever battery was previously listed as Fit. Yesterday, I...

    Wireless Charging

    Anyone with a Tylt Vu also using a case? I'm currently using the Incipio DualPro case for my Maxx but found that when it is in the case, my Energizer Qi pad is being very touchy. I can't seem to hit the sweet spot on it with the case on, so it keeps connecting and disconnecting to the charger...

    Trusted Bluetooth Devices

    I suppose I could use Tasker + WidgetLocker to have an extra swipe screen activate when the trusted bluetooth is connected. If it works, it would provide extra protection from pocket dialing without preventing "OK Google Now" from requiring the screen unlocking. My whole line of thinking came...

    Trusted Bluetooth Devices

    For all you using trusted bluetooth, I'm wondering if you have been encountering any pocket dialing problems. With a bluetooth device always on you keeping the screen unlocked, doesn't that mean that if you bump the home button in your pocket or if you accidentally swipe the lock on the active...
