Results

Hi,

Finally I've made all the tests.

Procedure:

Every ROM was flashed to device with original HTC WM6, then I swiched all Today plugins, utilities (like pBar) off, so system was clean and not overclocked. Then battery was fully charged.

For every ROM I made following tests (3x every test): first - streaming Internet radio 128 kbit/s with WiFi connection. Backlight was off, sound - 1/4. Test was made with GSPlayer. In table you can see how much it drains battery in % per hour (lower is better). Second test - playing Divx movie (320x240, full screen, no sound, backlight set to maximum) with TCPMP.

Like I said all tests were made 3 times for each ROM so you can see averages in table. I think the results are very similar for ROMs - 32-40% battery drain with WiFi and 16-22% while playing AVI movies so it's not so important parameter when you chose ROM for yourself.

I noticed that changing WLAN power save mode to "Best Battery" lowered power drain while streaming over WiFi from 40% to 10-12% so if you have strong WiFi signal it's better to do this. I haven't noticed differences in power consumption during calls, but I have no time for additional tests.

I've checked also free RAM and Storage memory (clean system with no plugins etc...).

Last impressions - with Bepe ROM I didn't managed to obtain Edge connection, Meshle Vanillas have almost no memory leakages.

I hope it'll be useful for somebody.
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] browny:
Good idea to measure power consumption. Interesting to check WM5 for comparison, as many people think it was a lot better.

However, I'd like to point out several things, which might influence outcome.. or might not. :)

1. Probably it is absolutely irrelevantl, but still... was there exactly the same version of power meter program used? At least, we would get same errors :D

2. There were complaints that battery after flashing does not last as long as before. Some kind of recalibration helps: full discharge until device shuts down followed by full charge. It was adviced to flash fully charged device, but still after some flashings I thought that battery drains too fast, so did the trick too.

Suggestion is to measure after discharge/charge cycle.

3. Correct me if I'm wrong, but probably like most gauges, the best precision is in the middle of the working range.

Normal behaviour of my device (while it is on and just sleeps) with fully charged battery: one day number stays at 100%; then gets lower at constant rate; and last few percents almost fly out.

In my opinion it could be right first to discharge from 100% to maybe 75-80%, and only after that start measurements.

Purely hardware power meter could be 'the final answer' to all questions but you need at least to have one. :rolleyes:
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] varvocel:
1. Battery level was checked in System -> Settings -> Power

2. Every ROM was tested 3 times. Because 1 WiFi test takes about 40% of battery power device was fully charged 2 times.

3. First measurement was done when battery was full, but second at about 50%. It's interesting that differences was only 2-3% in both ways, so I think they are not significant because WiFi drain was about 40% like I said.

By the way - I'm using Meshle Vanilla 3 now, device was recharged 5-6 times already and I didn't observed any better or worse battery drain.

I fully agree - the best way to measure power consumption is some kind of hardware, but concerning very similar results for all ROMs I don't think it's really necessary to do further tests.

Thanks for you suggestions.

Hello guys, devs!

Phone: Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Pro (Snapdragon), (kenzo)

Testing the roms: only a clean install, stock kernel, disable all unusefull display stuff (more contrast, rotation etc), and only install the vr player app.

So the problem is shortly: the VR video files quality is not sharp, blurred a bit when using hardware encoding . I'm using Var's VR player for this, but dosn't need it, just is the simpliest and the best at the moment. The good image quality what only in some rom looks like, when we disable the hardware encoding. Contact with the developers, so not an app problem.

On my device a lot of Marshmallow based roms hase encoding wrong this videos. Playing well, but if anyone used a good rom for this, all others crappy.

On the official MIUI roms only the Lollipop based roms working good (the developer MIUI 8 based roms not).

Tested a lot of roms release by release, in the Marshmallow based roms only one Krexus AOSP rom port playing well these.

In the Nougat based roms the situation is a bit better, but only 1 or 2 roms working well (only one CM14.1 port and two AOSP) for this, but it's a very young system, so when we know whats the problem on MM base the other devs will solve the problem (i think :D )

And I think not in this device the only one what is produces this problem, just the users don't know about this, because "working".

Here is the official thread with logcats and others in my google drive and the full storyline about the testing.

And reported on the official MIUI forum: link

In my drive you see the logcats, the krexus is the good, but renamed the files, so simpliest.

Some devs say the adreno blobs the problem. Tried to make an update (the zip in the drive), which is changing the adreno blobs to a correct (krexus), but when installed to a cm13 or other mm roms, the rom's stuck before the boot animation.

That's all, don't know what is the problem on the base.

Thanks for the help!

[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] speedboxx:
I have a Huawei watch which comes bundled with some bloatware. Before, I was able to use the ADB command to hide and disable some of the unwanted system software without having to root the watch (so as to not void warranty). It's detailed here on how to use the "adb pm shell hide" command:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/3eav7t/get_rid_of_unwanted_system_apps_adb_shell_pm_hide/

However, recently I had to do a factory reset and the bloatware has re-appeared. I tried to do the "adb pm shell hide" command to disable the apps and got a "error: java.lang.security exception: permission denial" in the command prompt window. After some Googling, it seems this is as a result of a recent Android update which may have tightened this up as you can no longer use this command on any Android device to kill bloatware.

So does anyone have any ideas for anything else to try? Or will I have to root my watch and forcefully remove the bloatware?

Thanks!

Hi

I recently installed Remix OS to my Asus X502C laptop and it all seemed really quick and easy so I decided to try it out on my old Linx 7 Windows Tablet and my iRulu Windows W1005 however I just cannot seem to get it to work.

I can get it installed to either the hdd or a bootable USB drive but when I choose the Android OS to boot from I get varying errors of missing things etc and then it hangs on a black screen.

I have also tried various other Android images listed to work on Windows tabs and other installers; Rufus, the Androidx86 installer 2.4 from a thread on this forum etc..

I can run MEmu no problem on my iRulu but I really would like a dual boot on it or just single boot on the Linx 7, I am a member on the Linx forum and Reddit but the Android discussion seems to be dead on there and guides/files are missing but people have said they have had Android running.

Can anyone point me to something that will work?

Thanks in advance for any help.

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hrlyrdr22:
The reason why I ask this specifically is because I know rooting my S4 disabled HDMI output so I couldnt record gameplay on my S4 with a MHL cable so I was wondering if there is a page or thread here that lists all known effects of tripping KNOX counter on S6. Warranty is gone on this phone and cellular isnt working so gotta bring it into Samsung to fix but I have to backup the app data which I can't seem to do without rooting. I've created a full backup with Android Studio (used command prompt with adb backup command) and created a full backup with Samsung Smart Switch and neither backed up app data. So now I have to resort to rooting the phone and using Titanium backup to backup the app data. Its only for 2 social media apps which dont have a way of backing up messages and chat history. Also, either way the warranty is dead but will Samsung straight up deny all help if they see KNOX is tripped? Thanks

edit: re-read post and sounds little confusing. I updated the phone via OTA and some reason it factory reset it right after so lost the app data for those 2 apps. Thats how I know
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EncryptedCurse:
For me, the most noticeable effect is permanently losing Samsung Pay.

I've had to service my S6 for a camera issue whilst KNOX was tripped (and still within the warranty period); sent it into Samsung and there wasn't any problem with them refusing to fix it.

Obviously your mileage may vary, but I think you should be fine so long as you flash back the stock ROM beforehand.

Tu jest do pobrania obraz karty ze zgranym RADIO-ROM-em 1.14.10 ; ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Universal/Technical/XDA Exec ERROR 114/

Potrzebujemy kart o pojemności do 128MB nawiekszych nie zadziała ( karta powinna być sformatowana na FAT32)

Jak to robimy (przykład) :

( dysk) :\>ntrw.exe write xxx.img (karta):

where i can find ntrw.exe file

Wkładamy kartę do slotu. Wprowadzamy Uni w tryb BL a dalej tak jak na rysunku z manuala.

Jesli uzyskamy : "sections=1 not allow update".

To oznacza to że musimy zdjąć CID-a .

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] joco2560:
can some1 explain this step by step, the pic doesnt really show anything, imean after the boot loader i dont see those stuff? some1 help plz, i have the same problem no gsm = no phone= no life.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] jas_pik:
I've created this only theoreticaly.

It probably will work if your Uni is Cid unlocked .

You can download image for SD card with radio 114 image here : ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Universal/Technical/XDA Exec ERROR 114/

Your card cannot be bigger than 128 MB and has to formatted FAT32

How to create file on SD card - You have to use ntrw.exe ( see sample ->:

( drive) :\>ntrw.exe write xxx.img (card):

You can find ntrw.exe : ftp://xda:xda@ftp.xda-developers.com/Magician/Tools/NTRW_2.0/ntrw.exe

Insert card to Universal .Put Universal into BL mode .

If you will see : "sections=1 not allow update" it means that you have CIDlocked Universal so procedure cannot be done this way.

Other solutions can be done by JTAG pinouts - but I don't know how.

[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Natebluehooves:
hey guys! I've been lurking for a while now, but I think I may have broken something, but was wondering what to do now.

I unlocked the bootloader in fastboot, installed TWRP, factory reset, and then flashed cyanogenmod nightly via twrp.

.... and it just stayed on the NVidia logo for over an hour when I tried to boot.

so at this point I wanted to make sure I didn't break something, so I wiped every partition via twrp (except recovery) and then used fastboot to reinstall the stock image..... and nothing. I can't get the tablet to boot anything.

... what do I do next? I can reliably get into TWRP and fastboot.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Did you wipe system before flashing?
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dzidexx:
If you still have twrp - you didn't flash stock.

Downloads and instructions:

https://developer.nvidia.com/shield-open-source

Download, unpack, install adb & drivers, copy imgs and blob to /program files/minmalAdb...

Open flash all.bat(as txt) and retype commands from keyboard.

"fastboot devices

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"...etc.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Natebluehooves:
I re flashed twrp after it failed to boot. think of it like a safety blanket. I did actually flash over recovery/system/staging/etc, but it wouldn't boot. it just sits there.

it's worth mentioning this is the k1 tablet. not sure what that changes.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dzidexx:
With twrp you can restore only backup.

Stock - fastboot & pc.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Natebluehooves:
okay perhaps I was not clear....

IN THIS ORDER:

I was on stock update 4.4 on the K1 shield tablet

I decided I wanted to run cyanogenmod, so I unlocked the bootloader (fastboot oem unlock), and then flashed CWM (fastboot flash recovery "insert file name for cwm here".img

I couldn't boot into recovery for some reason. it just hangs on the nvidia screen forever when I choose recovery from fastboot

I now install TWRP (fastboot flash recovery etc etc), this works, and I use twrp to install cyanogenmod. won't boot.

I try a few other roms like AICP, still won't boot. just gets stuck forever.

At this point, I figure i'm doing something wrong and i need my tablet to work for this coming week (i use it at work), so I "fastboot flash system/staging/recovery/etc" from the nvidia package. THIS DOES NOT WORK. AT THIS POINT I NO LONGER HAVE TWRP, AND CAN NOT BOOT.

I can install TWRP to get that functionality back, but at this point I can't get the tablet to boot into anything but bootloader or TWRP if i install it. anything else leaves me stuck on the nvidia logo forever.

this is a brand new nvidia tablet K1 as of about a week ago. no issues until i unlocked the bootloader.

Also, I really need to know, and nobody anywhere is answering this for some reason: are roms for the original shield compatible with the K1? As i understand it, the k1 is nearly identical in hardware (missing the stylus sensor, but not much else), but I seem to be the only person having these problems.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Natebluehooves:
yes. am i not supposed to do this? is a dirty flash recommended for some reason?
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dzidexx:
Nvidia shield k1 tablet had 1.4 & 1.5 updates(november).

You flashed wrong firmware.
