Trying to get my LTE-Nexus close to the awesome battery life my Sprint Galaxy SII had, which was like 18-20 hours heavy use with 5 hours display time, tons of phone calls, dozens of texts, hours of videos/movies, and like 72 hours WiFi light weekend use. My Nexus is lucky to do half that. I get about 7 - 9 hours on a busy weekday of phone use, doing sales. This is with stock battery, I have the extended, but that's another issue, for the extra 45min I might get out of it.
Anyways, I installed Juice Defender this week, and yes it sure did help battery life BIG time, but at a major cost, it basically shuts the phone down. I tried the basic settings for day, advanced settings for a day, custom settings for a day, and pretty much all were a bit glitchy.
I would miss some phone calls, voicemails come in an hour late, a few Force Closes I never got before on my Nexus, opening from the lock screen pausing or freezing sometimes. Restarting the phone never actually shutting down, just hangs. I have never had any issues like these whatsoever before installing Juice Defender.
You should NEVER miss calls from juice defender.. I suspect something else at play there unless it was putting you in airplane mode =/

Was in the shower earlier, heard the phone ring, looked at it on counter, the lock screen was there, but not showing the incoming call, and the ring was missing like half the audio, like a half ring, or every other ring. Very strange. Been on this same ROM for a couple weeks, NEVER had anything like that happen before. Having these strange issues ever since I installed JD a few days ago.

Very strange indeed.. the reason I said you shouldn't miss calls is because JD should never mess with the lower level of signal Verizon puts through (1x), only EVDO or LTE. It could very well be JD then, no idea.
I tried JD on my EVO 4G back in the day. Recall similar issues, with delayed voice mails and data just being strange. Yes it helped the EVO battery life for sure, but made the phone very glitch and not worth issues.

Delayed voicemails I can *maybe* understand, but you should never miss calls.. I'm not saying you're wrong, I've just never experienced it nor does it make sense to me
I did get calls this week. But today was weird with that half ring sound, sounded like battery dying. But it was full.
And phone just seemed a little extra laggy after installing JD couple days ago.

So I ordered Nexus for the gf and me from play store and it seems like the phone is dropping calls very randomly on T-Mobile. Thought the phones were defective so I had them exchanged. It is happening again on both the new ones. I can set up a call on them both lay them on a table and they will randomly drop sometimes 1min in other times 20min in. When this happens it shows I have full bars. Use to have SGS2 and never had theses problems. Any advice ready to give up on them still in my buyers remorse period but I love this phone.
I am having the same issue. Did you ever find a solution for it? I have the Google Nexus on Tmo.. works great with Data, no issues.. but voice calls get dropped randomly. Sometimes it resumes the call.. Most of the times, the call gets disconnected if the recipient ends the call. Never had issues with the SGS2, Nokias, Palms etc. which I used to have..

out of the blue, I've started having two very annoying issues with my phone.
First one is pretty important because it could cost me missing some important calls. Basically, at some points during the, usually during the afternoon/early evening, if someone calls me my phone doesn't ring. If they leave me a voicemail I get a notification several minutes later but it doesn't show that I had a missed call or anything like that. And when I ask the person who called me what happened, they say they dialed my number, it rang once or twice and then went directly to voicemail. That's what I'd expect to happen if the phone was off but it wasn't off.
Anyone know what might be causing this?
The second problem is that right around the same time frame as this seems to happen, my battery is draining ridiculously fast. It dropped from 47% to 34% in about two hours with absolutely no use during that time.
I opened up better battery stats to show kernel wakelocks since unplugged and it shows the powermanagementservice and something called bam_dmux_wakelock at the top of the list with 30m and 27 minutes.
It's completely stock, I haven't done anything to it. I had previously tried a couple of power management apps like juice defender and another one but I didn't like them and uninstalled them all. So I don't know what could be causing phonecalls to not be coming through to my phone. I have a fairly strong signal too. Any idea what's happening with my phone?
edit: btw, my battery life in general has been very crappy again. I thought the problem had resolved itself but today in just 14 hours I'm down to 30% with only 2 hours of screen time and 15 minutes of voice calls.
My first G3 which I was very happy with died suddenly on me. AT&T replaced it.
My second one has some issues that my first one did not.
Connects but times out with weak wifi signals.
Double tap often does not work to wake up phone. Needs a second double tap in those instances.
Almost every incoming call the caller can not hear me until I say hello twice.
I have had one overheat episode. No open apps, put the phone in its pouch with screen off. Later in the day reached for the phone and it was very hot with nearly depleted battery.
Seems to have some lag which my first one did not.
I have done a factory reset but these problems persist.
Today, my phone was taken off the charger about 6 hours ago. I have been on calls and browsed the web. Phone still shows 100% battery life, while I should not complain about great battery life, based on previous usage there is no way this can be true.
Anyone else experience this?
I don't like to be a nuisance customer and want to find out what others are experiencing before I call AT&T tech. support again.
Try factoryresetting by means of the volumekeys and not the menu. Made a huge difference with mine....
Hi all. Does anybody else have any issues with the microphone on their S20 Ultra (Exynos)? Yesterday I was on WhatsApp video call with my dad and every few minutes my microphone would stop working, ie. he would not hear me until I disconnected and called him again, sometimes twice before it would work again. Initially I though maybe WhatsApp is buggy on new phone but today when I made a normal phone call to my mum I had the same issue, although only first time around and when I called again it was fine for the remainder of 20+ min call. But later in the day I again called my dad on WhatsApp and same thing happened, only once but still. Anyone else? Should I be worried my Ultra is dodgy on the hardware level or is this something that can be fixed with software update?
Same here. My s20 plus microphone hardly catches any voice when my mouth is near the mic itself. Whereas while on call the other party hears nothing when I speak normally on calls. It's annoying af. Somebody give us a solution.
Warranty is solution.
