[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fpsq:
I tried to copy the system image file (system.rooted.H81510c-EU.img = 4 GB) to a different location as the /data/media/0/ of

dd if=/data/media/0/system.rooted.H81510c-EU.img bs=8192 seek=55296 count=529920 of=/dev/block/mmcblk0

is obviously NOT available to me because I use device encryption. (/data unavailable) So I tried to find a way to replace /data/media/0/ with anything that maps to my external_SD Card (/mnt/media_rw/external_SD) as this is not encrypted (can be encrypted easily). The Send_Command.exe \.\\COM5 shell is NOT very helpful in even understanding if the SD_Card is mounted. Anyone knows anything about it?

Second I tried to, as I am rooted, to copy the system image file to any location the Send_Command.exe \.\\COM5 shell would be able to read from although the device is encrypted. This would have been a 2 step process of rooting, unrooting and encryption and re rooting but I wanted to try. Somehow despite having root rights I could NOT copy anything directly to /. Or any other folder available in the Send_Command.exe \.\\COM5 shell. Any files or folders I created where successfully created when NOT created in / but I could not copy the large image file. It always told me not enough space, which is not the case. Folders I created seemed to be vanished after a reboot.

Anyone can shine a light on this? Can’t I copy because the device is already encrypted, or can’t I copy because of SLELinux Security?

Third I tried to copy the image file via Push_File.exe \\.\COM5 system.rooted.H81510c-EU.img /tmp/system.rooted.H81510c-EU.img which seemed to work. Just to find out it started fine and then quickly failed. Maybe not enough space in /tmp or wrong Push_File.exe parameter?

Anyone can help me out here?:eek:

since you are going to need to re-encrypt it after you root it anyway why don't you just decrypt it first and save yourself the hassle?
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antus:
run id in the command shell. it'll show you have recovery selinux context, which is very limited. you cant do much which is why we are having to copy the whole system partition off the device and edit it remotely. I dont think you'll have much luck mounting the sdcard, but thats not to say you shouldnt try and post back if you succeed.

[MENTION=316800]diedemus[/MENTION]

Because LG encryption is buggy and will not encrypt when rooted. (10a + 10b tested)

I run the id command successfully. So I do have the limited shell = recovery selinux and I am root. Any idea how to mount the sdcard when in recovery selinux context?

Is there a technical documentation of that shell? I couldn't find any. Help is greatly appreciated.

With samsung there is a way to encrypt a rooted device.

Download terminal and launch

the $ will become a #

Now type

the# will become a $

Just after that (don't wait) go to encryption and encrypt the phone (it can take long time).
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fpsq:
Interesting. I should try that one day. Only have one device left though, no more playing around [emoji2]

This development device was encrypted. LG devices can be unencrypted. Did NOT work. Device rebooted and never started decryption. Same as with encryption.

I did remove root, supersu, busybox everything AND tricked the LG RCT into thinking that the device was never rooted.

Decryption worked fine after that. I guess encryption will too. Why LG links device encryption and rooting is beyond me.

I should write a full guide one of this days on how to archive that.

This post was written on my rooted LG G4 with Xposed AND device encryption. So it is possible [emoji3]

I am on pure stock,no root.

on m as well, no ram apps work. but, there is some good news as well(especially for those none users of clear ram apps), the ram management is actually working properly now, at least with m. with all my years with android, every nexus phone as well, this is the first time that the ram management has worked properly, as i have seen, in pure android. yes none believers, ram management never functioned properly in any nexus before. now it does :)

I'm not brave enough to brick my phone but if there is an unofficial version of lollipop available is it likely the official version won't be far behind?
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phrozenflame:
We've been hearing the same story from Huawei for a few months.

Personally, I don't believe Huawei would go through the lengthy hassle of beta testing lollipop and not bothering releasing lollipop. Just don't know when. Every couple months Huawei tells us to wait for another couple months, so on and so forth.

I feel they're too busy polishing lollipops on their newly released devices and it feels that our device isn't a priority, which is a shame. Unfortunately, most people outside these and similar forums don't really care ALOT about new software updates. But IMO in long run its going to hurt Huawei.

[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pystolero:
It lasts since a long time ago. Huawei has never really took care of update since the beginning 2 or 3 years ago.

[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tuddu:
Or worst...maybe LP update arrives via OTA and, due to EMUI interface, it could be bugged (like already happened to first releases of LP for Samsung and other brands).

So, what's better? Stable KK with some limits and maybe a little boaring now after months, or buggy LP fashion but buggy and maybe with self rebooting problems or other unknown bugs??

What' s better? Personally I prefer to wait some months untill Huawei is 98% sure about a stable release, and let finally test this 2% to other ansious customers...

Hey all, this thread is getting really long but still I would like to contribute in my own way. Here is what I've found so far using the 7.7 rom from zoki.

At first I didn't really like the HTC touch features but when incorporated in a rom they just seem to work better.

The touch flo thingy i really didn't get. I would like to specify the program that should be started by touching the "music" button (MediaHubMini). One can give a path (and other name in the register) to the exe file one would like to activate using the TouchCube buttons. This doesn't work for the mediahubmini register settings. More specified, it doesn't work for the path settings. I.e I would like to use the "music" button to activate CorePlayer. I can change the name to "media" though.

On the other hand, it does work for the APlauncher register settings. I.e. I could let the mail butten activate the great Qmail program instead of the standard Windows Messenger program.

If someone knows how to change the settings for teh mediahubmini, I would actually use the HTC touch functions.

reg. settings can be found here.

[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] nagalun:
My Nexus 5 gets 1 hour of SOT extra, and the applications on the stats looks like they haven't been used for very long..

BUT, "Android System" is on top, meaning that maybe it was doing updates to google services and whatnot.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] The Zel:
Your nexus 5 can make 7h SOT? That's plain bull**** (unless you keep it on a desk).

[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] mj0528:
Using lux to maintain brightness helps a lot too. Going about 60%pointless
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] cellem:
When you are in home and it is dark there is no point putting more than 60% or 70% since I think it is too bright. I am not talking Automatic option ticked here.. anyway this screen is amazing, if somebody wants to get like 7hours OST to show around here OK be my guest but real life is around 4-5 hours I believe (mixed wifi and data usage)

That's too much. Try keeping it on Power Saving mode. It reduces the performance (not that I ever felt it though), but the battery life doubles up straight. I charge my phone at night and disconnect the charger, by morning my phone would still have 97%-98% remaining with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth On. I get a screen on time of about 6 hours (Heavy use & 4G data ON) when I keep the Power Saving mode ON throughout the day.

My use :

* Youtube end of day or mid-day

* Podcast with Podcast addict all day from 9am to 6pm with some cuts during the day

* Internet

* Wifi all day at work and home, 4G outside or in transport

* Connected to my runtastic orbit all day, to my car 2 to 3 hours by day

* Tapatalk

* Mail (samsung mail auto sync for prior account and sync every hour for secondary accounts)

* Accuweather sync every 6 hours

* GPS and Wifi localization activated all day

* Deactivate send report to samsung or google

* Fallout Shelter gaming 1 or 2 hours (it depends of the day)

* Facebook

* Tweeter

* Playstation App

* ...

For the first charge, I unpacked the phone, charge to 100% then power it on, let battery fall to 5% then full charge till 100%, disconnect charge cable, done it 3 times to calibrate the battery, and now I let my battery go to 20% and not under and never let it charge overnight.

Hope it could help.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] apurva.giri:
I get 4-5 hours depending on the activity. Like if I play very high graphical games like Hitman Sniper continuously, it would last may be 3 hours. If I watch just videos (not youtube or streaming), it would last more than 6 hours. Combining all of it together, I easily get 3-4 hours of on screen time. If I enable Power Saving, which doesn't affect much to performance, I easily get atleast 4.5 - 5.5 hours. If I just take calls and whatsapp and check fb/twitter a couple of times during the day, I'm still left with 50-60% of the battery by the time I come back home after 8 hours, that . Also, my bluetooth and Wi-Fi is always ON and I'm always listening to some tracks on bluetooth headset.

S6 Edge+ certainly can't beat the the legacy Note 2 device in terms of battery, however, 4.5 hours isn't that bad for a phablet.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] ezaechiel:
Yes that's what I noticed on my phone too, for me the best battery was on my Note with a slim custom rom I made, I had 2 days of use and 12hours of SOT but it was a new battery and very light rom :). I'm very happy with battery life for a 3000mAh battery it's very good.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] shaiju_o_thomas:
Yes. It is superb mobile. Looks and performance. Tech will advance and every passing month will bring in new and upgraded mobiles but for now this is the best beast.

Hey guys!

I got my phone yesterday (almost new but was completely discharged) and charged it to 100%. I played with it in the evening and scored 3h SOT, while battery dropped to 60% (wifi usage only). Through the night i lost maybe around 4% (my wifi and data was acutally turned on for all the time and my wifi sleep policy is set to never) . Then from 7am to 5pm i was using it mostly on HSDPA. When i got home i just wanted to kill the battery to see the results.

Overall I scored 5h SOT with this usage (around full day / 24h) half with wifi, another with hsdpa. Location on high accuracy turned on all the time, oh and about 20-30 minutes with google maps.

Score is what I expected, not much worse than previously owned Z3 which could last maybe half to max one hour more SOT.

Overall im quite happy, now I've installed package disabler pro and disabled more than 200. Lets see if it changes anything :)
