I just installed pimpmyrom and was doing a little bit of tweeK, then i notice my phone starts to get real hot and the battery start to drop like water running off a roof, anways i decide to flash the "rescue.zip" but it fails every time.
Any reason why it is failing?
PS. Im using twrp in rom manager to do this.
Cheers!

I'm sure there is a reason. But you didn't give us enough information to determine what that reason could be.

I actually enable most of those too "good to be true" misc tweaks, and the streaming settigs and some more but i deactivate them. what i just realise is the thePimp my CPU tweak was way up (i didnt touch it but im wondering if my swiping action could have caused it to go up) , should that be? and i had SD Booster installed. Can they both run together? Can that cause it? Especially the cpu tweak being so high?
I've a SM-T700 Tab S 8.4 running lollipop, and I've recently noticed a bug. I don't know if it's new since the lollipop upgrade, but I didn't notice it before.
I often use it to read in the dark, so I turn the brightness down and set the touch keys to never light up. However, after a while the lights come on and stay on until the setting is altered again.
Anyone else getting a similar issue?
Hi! I think it's a common bug. I have the same problem and read that many people have it.
I'm not aware of any permanent solution, so for now i keep mine at 1.5 seconds (I'd prefer them off, but thats the best I could find!)
PS: Sorry for my English!
No need to apologize. Your English is perfect.

If the problem's widespread, what devices/ROMs has it been seen on? Is it Galaxy-specific, I wonder.
Same issue here

Same problem here, only on mine the only way I've found to turn them off once they come on is to restart the device. What a hassle.
I have the same problem, regardless of what I set the duration to. It never did this under Kitkat.

Hi! I have same problem with Brazil version also.
Might it be related to that version only?

could possibly be... anyone with this issue not on the Brazil version?
Yes, same problem here with my new Samsung Tab S 8.4 SM-T700, stock 5.0.2
Putting it to 1.5 secs is the best I can do for now. I'm looking around on the app store to see if there's a different app to control this that might work (aside, the Galaxy S6 came with no way to turn these off and you have to use a separate app to do this).

No need to restart/reboot, for me if I change the setting to something else (e.g., 1.5 secs etc) and then back to OFF it'll work for a while before it stays on permanently again.

I tried that with mine... won't work: no matter what I change the setting to they just stay on until I restart the device. I created a ticket with Samsung support last week, but no response from them so far.
Ah .. ok, that's interesting, thanks for sharing. Hopefully Samsung will issue a fix in the next update. Nice tablet otherwise.
I'm sure most, if not all, knew this, but it is definitely a software issue. I flashed CM 12.1 the other day and the touch keys stay off. Perhaps someone can look into the stock firmware and see if there's a way we can fix it ourselves?
Hey guys, I've had the same bug since upgrading to Lollipop and I found out it seems to be a bug with the power saving mode. If I turn it off, the bug stops happening. I'm also testing power saving mode with the "turn key lights off" option unchecked, and it seems to be working ok. This option can be found under settings, power saving, restrict performance.
I'll keep testing. If anyone tests it too please reply with your findings!

I never use power saving mode, because I'm almost always near a charger, and I also had this issue. I don't think power saving mode has much to do with it. Not directly, at least.
Hi, I'm not using power savings mode, but have the same problem, so I'm not sure this mode is a factor (at least a sole factor).
Hi to all.
Somenone previously suggested this app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.notquiteinsane.galaxybuttonlights&hl=en
I've been using it with and without power saving mode for 4 days and so far so good.

Hi,
I suggested this app earlier upstream, however, it ended up not working for me. Not sure how it's working for you, but happy it is. (FWIW, I never use power savings)
So I seem to have a whole bunch of problems with my D851, and am curious if others have the same problems and know of fixes. Mine has 20g (stock Lollipop) installed, and is rooted.
Main problem: enabling Xprivacy makes this phone become significantly slower. The settings menu crawls with Xprivacy turned on. Anyone else experience this?
Auto brightness is *way* too dim to use. Surely, I must not be the only person experiencing this? I see a few people mention it in passing, but it doesn't seem to be an big deal. Are people not using auto brightness? Or do most folks not have this issue? All other devices I have with Lollipop allow a brightness range if set on auto. This one doesn't ? Can I get this feature somehow?
Even when I set the brightness manually, it keeps getting reset to 100% some half the times it wakes up from sleep. Anyone else experiencing this? Anyone know of a fix?
Also, the display off time never gets set. I set it to 30sec or 1min, and it always gets reset two 2 min.
The notification LED is virtually useless. It blinks once in like 20 seconds when I get an email (gmail app). I rely on this. Is there a fix to get it to blink every second or 2 seconds? Light manager didn't work.
What I don't understand is, since I experienced all these issue on pretty much a phone out of the box + rooted, I'm surprised they don't seem to be common problems.
Thanks in advance.

I think maybe you got a dud. Try flashing a rom and see if problems stop,if they don't then get another phone through warranty

Thanks, I think that was a part of it, but not all of it. I tried flashing stock on a different unit, and I found that the brightness issue was largely (but not fully) better, and the display settings not getting set issue went away. The Xprivacy and LED notification issues remain, and will occur on all units as far as I can tell. I haven't seen anything here that contradicts that info.

Thanks a bunch for the info, this is good to know, and good to hear from another D851 user. The Xprivacy issue may be less easy to measure. The LED issue may be more objective. I have no trouble with changing LED colors. It's the blink rate that's at issue. Are you able to get it to blink say, twice per second, or even once per second when you get new email in your gmail app if you use that? Are you using any kind of an LED app?
Also, are you running Lollipop? Stock? Rooted? Thanks.

I'm always rooted lol I'm running fulmics 5.0 and in the settings it gives you the option of length and speed of the LED. I highly recommend that rom if you want to try out marshmallow.

Anyone else having issues with general video playback? It doesn't ALWAYS happen... But it seems that some apps (YouTube, Facebook, Netflix, etc.) seem to freeze up or have audio syncing issues, primarily with HD content, but happens at content at 360p too. Only way to fix is to reboot, and even then, it sometimes begins shortly after reboot.
I currently use T-Mobile with a consistently strong connection (25-75mbps) and have Gigabit internet at home, so I know it isn't a lack of bandwidth. No case on my phone to cause overheating, and phone temperature seems normal regardless. Any ideas?

US ATT model.
I have a slight green load circle arrow, on all audio/video files. Tidal takes forever for the first HiFi file to buffer and load. I have never seen this behaviour on any phone before. This does NOT occur on my HTC 11, LG G6 or S7. The processor is not kicking in properly in the kernel imo

Kernel is the first thing I thing I thought of to be honest... It's obvious Motorola highly modified it... I'm coming from the OnePlus 3, and the difference in this software vs other devices tends to be pretty huge from what I can tell...

Are you stock? Do you have the bootloader unlocked? I might have a boot.img that should work. If you are rooted or have TWRP, this will make you lose it though. If you have TWRP, I can make it a flashable ZIP as well...

I ran into these issues. Compiling the kernel with some optimizations fixed the issue, that is why I suggested it. (all same from source, just different configuration during compile)

Hint: default compile for this phone is performance governor which can cause these issues, so rooting and changing gov to interactive or another one should fix the issue without needing a custom kernel.

As simple as changing the gov? That's almost too easy loll! I think I know my answer
i dont have any stutter in videos but scrolling through G+ on my phone is very laggy. i installed Kernel Auditor and my gov is already set to Interactive, maybe change the GPU gov? its set to msm-adreno-tz
Has anyone experienced this issue? It is laggy and jittery on my Pixel 6 Pro after running anywhere from 8-24 hours when I start a screen record. If I reboot it's silky smooth.
This only happens while performing a screen recording and I've checked my refresh rate which does not go below 120hz.
I am rooted and running Kirisakura kernel. Thought originally it was the kernel but no one reported it.
Thoughts?

only way to know for sure is to go back to stock and test it. if it still happens on stock setup, re-flash - which will surely resolve your issue. I know you didn't want to hear this but..

Sure, I could certainly do this and it's easy enough for just the kernel. It seems odd that no one else reports this problem on the kernel forums though. Which is why it leads me to believe something else is going on. Everything else is fluid and smooth, just screen recording sucks.
