You need root (su) to cat the xml file by using terminal emulator.

I updated to MM .184 and did a factory reset, now the Energy Saving app (green with a white leaf) is gone, replaced by ASUS Mobile Manager, but I found the apk to still exist in /system and the function is reachable by the Battery submenu in Settings, does anyone know how to make the link visible again? I hate Mobile Manager but Energy Saving was quiet and quick, i miss it...
[ZenFone 2 General] cyrom:
flash it via adb sideload instead.
[ZenFone 2 General] orlyyan:
Update flash with original recovery for sideload
[ZenFone 2 General] lalithesh:
So what are the issues with this update? I was having bluetooth connectivity issues, but that got fixed after a restart. I think there is an issue with the gps connectivity and seems like there is a battery drain issue as well.. Anyone else facing the same problems?
[ZenFone 2 General] zapz:
I've upgraded from LP .198 to MM .184 and I have no issues so far. Performance is good (no factory reset), battery is the same as on LP (I lose 1% at each 2 hours on stand-by), the sound distortion and freeze problems I used to have in games are not there anymore. All sensors work.

New update makes the Asus dialing screen crash a lot... and the entire OS too, during calls or just after ending one :/
[ZenFone 2 General] sapiterbang:
I think the issues will come to those who prefer rooted device and xposed freaks. The 184 version needs special treatment to work normally in rooted and xposed device

[ZenFone 2 General] pjuklas2:

For user who having any issues please reboot into recovery and clear your cache. After that see it resolved your issues or not. Battery drain issue will not resolved with this method

Or I have to flash another Android M version before this upgrade? Thanks alot
[ZenFone 2 General] ayush.gl:
Yes you can update directly to v184 of stock mm, just download the firmware zip from http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/ZenFone/ZE551ML/UL-Z00A-WW-4.21.40.184-user.zip and flsh it by adb sideload.
[ZenFone 2 General] faustito77:
Thanks alot,

Please tell me that I can avoid factory reset... ahah!!

If yes (I can avoid), do you know if sms backup is necessary? I read that Asus sms app is not on Android M (that uses Big G app), but... backup is really necessary?

Thanks again,

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] chanukya:
Has anyone been able to successfully encrypt the SD card on this phone? I've tried with multiple cards over the weekend with no luck. In my previous phones (Note3, Note4 etc) requesting SD card encryption would take a few hours for a 200GB card., With the LG the 'encryption' says it completed within a min, but I can view files from the card when I put in a SD card reader on my comp.

I assumed with Nougat encryption happens on the fly when data is written to the card, but this does not seem to be happening. .
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] @rbiter:
Better write a letter. Some oem's claim hardware encryption but it is never utilized.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Tidbits:
Full encryption
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] chanukya:
Hi , did that. But if you take out your card and put in a card reader and connect to pc, you can read all the data..
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Tidbits:
Did you include encrypting media files? This is what I get when trying to open up anything. I made sure I toggled to encrypt the media as well.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] sheldonkreger:
Is it only possible to encrypt the SD card? What about the memory on the phone itself?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] chanukya:
I believe the phone is encrypted by default. I spend some time figuring out the encryption on this phone. Maybe it’s my ignorance of Android encryption that prompted this, more experienced users will probably find it obvious, but hopefully this helps someone:

1)	The SD Card can be encrypted, and encryption does work.

2)	You can read the SD card when put in a card reader on a PC, and can see folder and file names. Trying to open a file either causes an error (for Media files) or garbage (for text and word files)

3)	For encryption to work, you SHOULD NOT move files directly from PC to the SD card. Move them from PC to the internal storage, then transfer them over to SD. Else they will not be encrypted.

4)	If files are deleted on the SD card, they can be retrieved from the card using a retrieval program (I used Recuva). However the recovered files are still encrypted and cannot be read

I compared this to my S7E where I have set up the SD card as adoptable storage.

1)	Here, the SD card cannot be read externally, it gives a card error.

2)	Reformatting the SD card however, enables a file recovery program to extract it’s contents. I’m still in the process of running the recovery, so do not know if the contents stay encrypted. Will update once observed.

In either case, it appears obvious that if you really want to secure your data:

1)	If using external storage, rename every doc to prevent identification (If you don’t want your contents to be known, even if they cannot be read) or:

2)	Get a phone with enough internal storage to not require an SD card at all (Nexus 6P or Pixel XL 128GB)
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] @rbiter:
128GB IS NOT ENOUGH! AAAAAAHHH!! JKabout the yelling. 256GB minimum or bust. And I'd still want a micro sd card. Better YET, a real SD card. You k ow the ones about ¼ the size of a credit card. With UFS speeds for the cards. Yeah. I am serious.

You listening LG? LG V30 keep the DAC, but make it user tweak able, improve the camera low light without having to use manual, better yet just improve auto camera. 128GB minimum storage or at least an option. With UFS micro sd card slot. And for the love of God, please give us a calibrated screen or at least damn close. Geez. Your camera isn't so great until we move the pictures to a proper screen. Better yet, make it a top shelf amoled, with optimized UI that is black and give us a couple options for color accuracy like Samsung. This is BS I have to leave comfort view on 24/7 to have the illusion of a somewhat close to calibrated screen. I want my pictures to look good on the phone too. IT'S TOO BLUE AT 9000 KELVIN DAMMIT!

Guys, I would like to extend my Xperia V for another 2 years perhaps, please mention best and stable build for daily use, since there are many builds out there and I am confused. Please note that I am not a techie and I don't want to install upcoming builds either. I just wanted to bring my device from old android (jelly bean) which is not supported to latest android(at least lollipop) so that I can install latest apps.

Note: Also please mention if there are any issues in your recommended build compared to stock android version for reference. Thank you.
[XDA Assist] XDA Visitor:
Hi, My tab just got broken and stuck with the stock recovery only. I tried many ways to get it back working. But it seems the stock rom somehow corrupted. Now I know the board number with chip respectively: ma4-818-v12, ATM7029. It is 8inch tab, non 3g, dual camera, wifi, SD card slot which seems to be working and an HDMI. Fortunately I found the exact stock rom for this device but I cannot download it because it's from some Chinese site I guess and it wont let me download for some reason. I don't read Chinese. He is the link: gujianba.com/read-htm-tid-88744.html .

I tried to install custom recovery, the device isn't rooted but it failed with every package through SD card. ADB gets the connection.. That much I can tell. Anyone can help me to fix this please help. Thanks.

[Xiaomi Mi 4C] jordandroid64:
hello, I search a phone for my little sister,

I have a 100€ not more, which one do you think is the best at this price between the 4 ?
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] mesziman:
I will vote for the REDMI 3s. I don't like phones which are 5 inch + .

the 3s has expandable storage
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] jordandroid64:
Mi4C has 5inch screen ...
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] lolo9393:
Hello Jordan,

I see your request and it's easy to answer it in a row.

RN3S is the best and only good choice.

MI4C is obsolete and the 3S has many feature that you have to mind:

the battery is fantastic in use (I know I have tested it during one month, same condition as RN3SD and last longer) , you have ext SD and the phone construction is very robust it doesn't suffer after the JERRY's binding test (not the case for RN3).

about the perf nothing to say because I didn't play games with it but it is a medium end performer, much than enough for everybody daily usage.

The size is perfect in hand and pocket.

And the cherry on the cake you get B20 LTE if you need it.

Go forward

See you elsewhere!
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] mesziman:
I know . But others are not and since you posted it in here under the Mi 4C subforum it makes that by context I am comparint the 3s to mi4c.
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] philipnzw:
Rn3pro for the great soc and custom rom support , just live with the size I guess
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] jordandroid64:
I have a note 3 pro for myself but it is a little bit too expensive
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] legacyofthevoid:
I think the only useful advantage of Mi 4C is its camera. Mi 4C camera takes amazing photos in good light.
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] waingro808:
Mi4c for better camera and better 1080p screen. Let us not forget that Mi4c is flagship series and not a Redmi. If battery life is #1 for you, then Redmi 3S.

---------- Post added at 10:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:39 AM ----------

Don't forget excellent 1080p screen!
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] SlashSpeed:
Mi4C has a 64-bit processor. That's also a big plus
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] sbasil:
I'd probably still get Mi4c. Great screen, above average camera, fairly fast, great custom ROM selection. Mine has weak GPS, but that's the only bad thing I have to say about the phone (and I suppose it's not an universal problem since many ppl say theirs work great). Go with either one, you won't be disappointed. It can't get much better than this, considering the price point.
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] stillsober:
This phone is hot, shorter battery, weak gps and no sd card, if you can live with that, why not
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] jordandroid64:
I hesitate now...
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] Matt17BR:
You should consider the Xiaomi Redmi 4 Pro that came out November 4th. Dirt cheap on resellers sites, just about 10 dollars or so more expensive than Redmi 3S, but performance is obviously a lot better. Battery life shouldn't suffer a lot at all, since the SD 625 is very efficient.
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] jordandroid64:
I have a budget of 100€ not one more... it's for a kid...
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] SlashSpeed:
Mate, just go for either Redmi 3S or Mi4C, both are great and if you're buying it as a gift, then even better. I'm probably a bit biased because I own a Mi4C, but still. I bought it a month ago and I couldn't be happier. The battery is completely okey, it lasts me the whole day without problems, camera is fantastic, the screen is gorgeous and from the technical standpoint it should receive community updates longer than Redmi 3S. But as I said, the Redmi 3S is a good phone as well, so whichever you'll choose, you won't go wrong.
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] David SH:
Hi.

In my opinion (I have both devices), 3S is smaller and has longer battery but Screen is HD (thats one reason because battery is longer) and of course fingerprint (that really i never use). However, Mi4c has better resolution and powerful SoC, Wifi capabilities, and also double flash/camera for night photos.

Now I'm using Mi4c with Cm14 and I love it! Smooth, fast... and everything in bright and FullHD.
