Might be a little off topic, but what battery mod are you using?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] undercover nerd:
Amplify

Side note.. I'm getting random reboots???? Mostly at night when I'm charging my phone is this part of force doze?

Also would lucky patcher and viper break the settings?

If not can someone help me successfully install viper for tmobile SM-G930T? Reg s7.

Thank you [MENTION=1599591]psouza4[/MENTION] for putting together a great guide. I used it to set up my S7 and have noticed huge improvements in handling and battery life after rooting using your other S7 guide.

If mean like 3 min battery mod type stuff this guide doesn't use one.

Sorry I wasn't sure very clear. I Odin to the non-root stock rom listed in the OP and then re-root from there. Maybe try a different type/version of Odin too.

Thanks for the great guide and helping the community!

I followed the guide to a T and have the v15+debloat fixes installed. Also have TEKXv2.

I'm still getting a laggy experience and the battery seems to be draining rather fast, still.

I did have a kernel program installed to use ondemand and min/max settings for the small and big cores. I just uninstalled that (at 2% battery left after 9 1/2 hours) to see if default kernel settings will lead to smoother battery and less lag.

Additional suggestions and help would be appreciated.

Am I supposed to enable "auto hibernation" in greenify? Your walk guide doesn't say (unless I missed it somewhere). When I enable auto-hibernate, it keeps popping up saying the auto-hibernate service has stopped and gives me the option to enable to guardian.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] amorrn:
Anybody know how to get timers working with these settings? I have tried the stock Clock app and Google Clock from the play store; I even froze the stock Clock with TB. Both are whitelisted in ForceDoze and Greenify, however, neither works with the screen off. If you turn the screen on during the timer it progresses as expected. However, with the screen off the timer never rings or progresses, even after reaching 0 mins 0 seconds left. Once turning the screen back on (after reaching 0) the timer will ring, but not before then. Alarms work fine, just not timers.

Also, Google has issues with these settings. "OK Google" works until the screen turns off, once it does I have to go fully into the Google app before it recognizes my voice again (or a reboot).

None of these apps are "optimized" by ForceDoze or Greenify. I have whitelisted them all. However, I'm having these issues. Anybody know how to fix?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] spearoid:
Thank you for this guide psouza!

I have definitely seen improvements.

Wondering if anyone else has had an issue with com.google.android.gms. Under Alarms in BetterBatteryStats it shows that service as averaging 2 per minute... And no other service has anything close to that kind of average. I know it's a Google service and have seen many who recommend disabling it. Curious to see if any on this thread have dealt with this one.

Also, since following this guide I notice my phone almost always shows the "Finding Location" notification whenever I turn my screen on. I assume this is because GPS isn't being given as much freedom when my screen is off.... But I'm wondering if there's a way to avoid the location searching each time I turn on my screen. I do have a Tasker profile that is active based on my location.... Going to turn that off and see if that is the culprit.

Try clearing cache in flashfire or from recovery. Sorry, that's all I got.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cozzie37:
I have royally bricked my US990, any time it boots up it goes to fastboot, including trying to enter download or recovery mode. Also, it's not rooted (I was trying to return to stock), so if I try to erase or flash aboot/laf/recovery, it just hangs. So I'm trying to follow this guide to recover it, but I need a TOT or BIN file to use it, and so far all I've been able to find are KDZ versions of the US990 firmware. I've tried following a couple guides to convert them to a BIN, but so far haven't had much luck. The .cab files LGExtract creates aren't valid, neither 7zip nor cabextract can open them, and P970 ROM CONVERTER doesn't work either. Most versions of WindowsLGFirmwareExtract crash when trying to extract individual BINs from the DZ, although the one included with ImagePrepGUI works. So I now have individual BINs, but no partition.txt

I have several different options for KDZs to work from, I'm trying to use US99023a, which I believe is the latest Lollipop update. I also have the LS990 ZVA tot, which I've extracted. It looks like the bin/img files from the kdz are the same as the mbn's that BoardDiag produces, is that right? And can I use the ZVA partitions.txt with the files from the US99023a kdz to get this thing running again? Or, if I try it and it fails, will it be any worse off than it is right now?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cozzie37:
Update: the LS990 partition.txt was good enough to get download mode working again, from there I could use the Mobile Support Tool to reflash. I'm pretty sure it wouldn't work permanently though, since several of the files are different sizes. I would still really like to put together a TOT for us poor folks with the US990. It seems like I have a complete set of .bin files, except misc.bin and userspace.bin. Can anyone help me put this together into a flashable TOT or BIN, just so I can upload it for the next guy who needs it?

Can't find a single mention of this phone on XDA (VFD 900). I know it's only been out a couple of weeks, but surely I can't be the first to get one?

http://www.gsmarena.com/vodafone_smart_platinum_7-8154.php

I picked one up today, and I have to say I'm very impressed. I know most will turn up their noses because full price is about the same as the OPO 3, but on contract I got it for free (which is not possible with OnePlus).

I know nothing about development, so I can't do anything to push that forward, but I'm hoping one of the devs on here gets their hands on it, if only to get root working (although Cm based ROMs would be very welcome!).

Anyone else got one yet? Opinions?
[Android General] nickedez:
Hi!

You're not the only owner this phone! I have one of this too. :D

I'm satisfied with this stuff, I think it's responsive, and really fast.

But I'm rather waiting for the BootLoader unlock method, cwm, sim unlock, maybe custom rom, etc. !:p

I found only one description about root 'til now, but I've not tried it yet. (On the sadrdoid.com)

I figured out, to enter recovery mode you've just press the Volume-UP + Power button for a while.

These are my only informations yet. :cowboy:

Vodafone smart Platinum 7 is rebranded ALCATEL ONE TOUCH IDOL 4S, also named OT_VFD 900.

Yeah, I found that too, but what can I do with it? :confused: Or a dev can use it?

Exactly I tried to make a backup from the stock rom, but I can't communicate with the phone in fastboot mode! I don't know why?!

Adb can restart the phone in bootloader mode, but after that, the "fastboot devices" command don't see the phone. Is it maybe a driver problem? :eek:

Thank you so much! It's working! I'd have never found out it! :laugh:

Maybe "fastboot - i 0x1bbb boot twrp.img" could work for use a twrp recovery without flash the stock recovery and make a backup?

What do yout think?
[Android General] DallasCZ:
of course it will work, but you dont have the TWRP recovery. you need the partition table to be able to build the twrp.

Oh, and how can i get the partition table and build the twrp? :D

Or should I prefer to wait until someone make that? :rolleyes:
[Android General] DallasCZ:
it is not so easy. you have to have some skills.

But you have all what it takes. Kernel source, the device only a propper DEV is missing.

You can look when someone start the IDOL 4 thread, since the VODAFONE is rebranded IDOL 4. So most likely the root method and the TWRP can be compatible.

Maybe [MENTION=4911249]Unjustified Dev[/MENTION] can help, because hes very skille dand made the TWRP for IDOL3. I mentioned him, so maybe he can post some advice.

[Android General] Galaxo60:
Hi everyone,

I'm planning to buy an Axon 7, and my second option was the Idol 4S, but it seems that is a little hard to get it and is really expensive here in Europe when comparing with the Smart Platinum 7, is almost the same phone and fortunately I'm with Vodafone.

I would like to know how you guys are doing with the phone, I mean, I'm just a normal user, not interested anymore in development/rooting because Android for me is doing really good since Lollipop. Sometimes I play Hearthstone, CSR2 and Pokemon Go, and use the classical mail and chat stuff.

I would like to know about the general experiences you have with the phone, the camera, the performance., the battery, etc. I have read every single review out there, I even watched a 37 min review and everything seems pretty positive, but I have seen there are some differences as well with the Idol 4S, like the reversible screen, how speakers are arranged (even when both are stereo), tap to wake, boom key, etc.

Besides the good things that we already know about the phone, I would also know the bad parts: I know that fingerprint sensor is not so quick and that the back part of the phone is a finger magnet; would be nice for me to know from other users if there is something else that annoys you or not so good about the phone.

If you could write briefly about what I'm asking, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks

since you have to adress the port to comunicate with the device by adding "-i 0x1bbb" to the fastboot command, and this is missing in all the root and flash twrp guides, i think this will not work at all.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Florp:
Noob question: Does HTC have an SDK for their devices, or do they just rely on the WM6 SDK?

And on a related note...

I'm just starting to get into VB programming for WM (specifically, for my Tilt/Kaiser). Any advice on how best to get started? Stupid beginner mistakes to avoid? Best sites for finding sample code?

Thanks all!

-Florp
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] levenum:
There is no special SDK form HTC devices.

In fact you do not even have to use WM 6 SDK specifically, programs compiled with previous SDKs will work as well.

Here is a site to start with: www.pocketpcdn.com

Personally, VB is not a language I recommend for WM based devices. Aside from a fact that you need the expansive VS 2005 (full version) to program in it, .NET compact framework makes for slower apps and on devices pre WM 6 it takes 5 MB to install CF 2.

Also, you can not use it to write things like today plugins and keyboards and accessing other system functions is a problem.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Florp:
Thanks for the info!

If not VB, how about C#? Is that a well-supported language on WM?

-Florp
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] levenum:
Well C# is a bit better than VB syntax vise but it suffers from all the same problems I listed before:

Need VS 2005

Need .NET CF2 -which is slow and built in only in WM 6

Difficulty accessing native APIs.

My personal recommendation is C++. If you are really interested in programming and don't know it - learn it.

Why?

MS has a free tool to compile for WM devices: Embedded visual C++ 4

You can write anything with it and access any system API directly with no problem.

Native codes runs faster and is more memory officiant because no supporting framework needs to be loaded.

Of course it all really depends on what you want to do. If you just want to make a quick simple app for you own use VB or C# may be more than enough provided you can get you hands on VS 2005.
