Drain goes to S144, it is worse than S142 (although not much), but it is felt, but s 142 may be worse than the S136 on the battery, I also had when I buy S136, and I did not test, and updated up to S 141-S142. Now here is S144, in terms of performance s 144 better than S142, but there are maintenance, but less than on S142 (this is for me). My advice to you: nothing is not yet clear, while sitting on S136, you will have time to update, unless of course Lenovtsy are true, in general you decide.

It is also written that the battery quickly merges the courage of 25-15 %% in a short time, the truth did not look. It was on S142.

* ZloyTapochek,
If not difficult, tell me what is your battery consumption! How many hours of screen activity, wi-fi activity, conversations, etc. I have an A5000 before A7000 - so there the battery squeezed under 8 hours of screen activity, 40 wi-fi clock, 1.5 hours of conversation and day two works. I would like to understand how much they have a big difference. And how much is considered the norm for A7000.

I would suggest, only here I am not very active the phone I use, from the listed, only in the browser sat, the full charge was 10 nights and until 7 am every hour to 15-20 minutes in the internet (not Wi-Fi), everything else in Waiting for the phone (almost), at the moment - discharges 4 hours, waiting is 22 hours, the charge of 50% remains.

* warlokelf,
And how much does the battery make a battery at 144 ?? How many hours of screen activity ?? I have at 136 about 4.5 hours, which is mildly a little.



Rep: (8)
He spent not a big experiment, played a whole hour exactly, in a not serious game (Domino), in the background it did not work, before the start of the games it was 47% after an hour of 33%. But thanks to this experiment, I noticed (in my opinion there was still a small improvement): I got a smart at the S142 during the game of the same domino, and I didn't heaven, right now it became much colder, such ... I barely warm that I was happy.

I don't even know the time for the time not to test the machine (I'll get it soon), but as morning I took off the whole day with charging. I wear with it periodically turned on the Internet WOT game called a lot right now. yandex (from them is always a big charge consumption)

It is hard for me to be a body for so long anywhere else (at work in the modem mode I connect a lot), the only way to check that it is better to install 144 and watch a manual on a rollback I will write
1. Put the root
2. Put the recovery TWRP
3. Make backup 136 firmware and copy to the computer
4. Put the stock of the recovery (I have in the signature)
5. Remove the root in the Root A settings
6. Come in updates and updated to 144
Try, it will be necessary to return to 136. It will be possible 2 ways to restore backup 136 or flashes from a computer at 136, as if nothing complicated.

Good day!
I wanted to ask those who put the root: Have someone tried to putXposed Framework? I saw in the topic theme for Android 5.0 and 64-bit processors.
If someone has already experimented - is it possible to disable the touch buttons and add to the apparatus.
Just the only power of the root on this unit for me is the ability to modify the system interface, but if it is not available, I do not see the meaning in the root.
Thank you in advance for your answers.

You can by editing build.prop (you need root). Open through a text editor, write qemu.hw.mainkeys = 0 on a new line, then reload.

Rep: (20)
Good morning, but no one tried custom from respected Wizardik, I wonder how they are for energy consumption ???



Rep: (33)
Try, say what kind of it



Rep: (20)
In general, I am on SM12.1, and where we do not put it, except that he wrote a respected Wizardik, there are the following problems; 1. The network falls off (in 2xcine mode). 2. Internet 3G is absent. 3. It is not active in the settings of the SIM card menu (there is no way to configure which sim for what is responsible), the Internet is turned on only on the 1st SIM. 4. Does not remember the wi-fi password. 5. When the Waifa is turned off, exclamation marks appear on the icons of the SIM cards (that this means it is unknown, because there is a connection). Now it's good about the connection, 2E sim, Wi-Fi is stable, and maybe this is my subjective opinion, but Zhor is less. Before tomorrow I will be on it, I will check the SMOV's topics, and let's go further))). Many thanks to Wizardik for cm, let's hope for a saw))).



Rep: (20)
Themes of SM12 work norms, but the screen resolution is better not to change))).

Rep: (20)
* Gatson66, On the first page in this topic, Dear Wizardik gave a link to the Lenovo Forum, there are also instructions for firmware a new flash tool (in pictures, and extremely clear, although I would have recommended to flash custom recovery and close the modem backup). There just look carefully, and find everything.
