I got a 6pack of Choetech USB-C to USB-C cords this week and have been able to test out the different lengths it came in.

The package came with:

1x - 1.6ft

4x - 3.3ft (Standard length that usually comes with your phones)

1x - 6.6ft

I like the 6.6ft cord for by the couch and/or next to the bed when I'm charging the phone and am laying down. Sometimes I need a little extra length on the cord so it doesn't get pulled out of the wall.

The 1.6ft cord is prefect for charging in the car. I happen to drive a manual vehicle so it's nice that the cord doesn't get in the way. I was using the 3.3ft cord and it would get in the way sometimes when I'm shifting. The new length is perfect. Just long enough connect to my Anker AC vent magnet mount. All cords charged my phone "rapidly" so no complaints. I haven't done any data transfer onto a computer since most of it resides in the cloud.

The build the cords are nice, thick but not really flexible. I have USB cords from tronsmart and anker. The build on these feel about the same build quality. It's definitely more sturdy then some of the other thinner cords. Maybe since I've never owned one or tried a braided cord, I wish they could have had 2 braided 3.3ft cords and 2 regular 3.3.ft cords instead of 4 regular ones. All in all, I'd recommend this 6pack for someone who may need more cords then the single one they provide for you in the box.
[Google Pixel Accessories] HeCareth:
Are these Nathan approved? I've been so tempted to buy some cheaper cables bit really don't want to get burned. I ended up purchasing the Apple 2m USB C to USB C cable as Nathan mentioned this is the best cable out there right now.

Benson?

Benson approved Choetech USB-A to USB-C cords here:

I wrote Choetech an email and this is their response:

We have sent samples to Benson Leung, but he is too busy to test our cables now.

We have a new e-marked cable which is certified by USB-IF,

a sample has been sent to Benson and Nathan K, their test results will be coming soon.
[Google Pixel Accessories] clockcycle:
I got my delivery on this one today, I bought it after Benson Leung confirmed it is a good cable.

[Google Pixel Accessories] MrBaltazar:
What charging blocks are you guys buying to go with the cables?
[Google Pixel Accessories] HeCareth:
I'm using the Choetech block which is working well.
[Google Pixel Accessories] TheBadBen:
Are any of these cables the two piece magnetic ones?
[Google Pixel Accessories] gamer765:
I also received these USB cables a few weeks ago for free from CHOETECH, I haven't left a review as I like to test stuff for more than a few days before recommending a product to anyone. I don't have any expensive meters to test voltages and stuff, but from day to day use, they function perfectly as they're supposed to. The build quality on the cables are amazing. As noted before, they are sturdy and by no means your typical cheap flimsy cable. I keep a cable by my bedside, a few in my car for on the go charging for me and my passengers, and one at the computer. The cables are pretty heavy duty since they're stepped on from time to time at my computer. Sometimes they get pulled on and cables still work perfectly, I can't comment on how fast these cables are because I have no use cases where it would max out the transfer speed, but it's fast enough for my needs. I also like the fact that they're plain cables in a plain bag with no flashy buzz words and tacky marketing on it. (Am I paying for the cables or for the fancy packaging?) I am very satisfied with this product and would recommend it to everyone else.
[Google Pixel Accessories] leftbrain99:
I concur with the opinion that these are of good quality and work well. I have used them to power both my Lenovo Yoga 910 and my Pixel, using both the Google Pixel OEM adapter and the Anker Powerport+ 60W adapter. One of the 3.3ft cables did have a damaged connector, which collapsed on insertion into my Pixel OEM adapter, but the others all work fine and seem to be sturdy and solid in construction. Choetech is sending me a replacement of that 3.3ft cable. I carry these in my bag every day and I've been charging overnight with the longer cable.

I CANNOT say the same for this E-marked Choetech 10Gbps cable +clockcycle links to, which now appears on the spreadsheet with a BAD rating. It fails to charge my laptop and my Pixel and also seems to put my Pixel into some sort of voltage protection state. I'm awaiting a replacement from Choetech, but I have my concerns considering the updated test results by Nathan K. I'll note that Benson had said in 12/2016 that the cable appeared to him to be good, but that it had some missing fields which he initially just attributed to it being a test unit that Choetech supplied for review rather than for retail sale. Since then, Nathan K. has noted the same issues and more with retail units, and those results are reflected in the BAD rating in the spreadsheet.

[Xiaomi Mi 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Phil_Smith:
Hey, if someone is still encountering problems with adaway (especially those who are on android 7.0 and not 7.1 are most likely affected),

you have to gain permissions to writing the host file.

Try the following which helped for me when I was on aosp 7.0.

You gotta type this in cmd as admin after having pointed to your platform-tools folder (if it is not added to PATH anyway).

For example:

cd C:\Android\sdk\platform-tools

Then go ahead and do:

adb root
adb shell
su
mount -orw,remount /system
rm /system/etc/hosts
ln -s /data/data/hosts /system/etc/hosts
mount -oro,remount /system

Afterwards you can retry to apply the new hosts in adaway.

[Xiaomi Mi 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Phil_Smith:
Sure, I'm in no hurry here ;)

Could you please post screenshots of the error message you receive?

Also, which version of adaway do you use?

The latest one is 3.2.

The one that is linked in the OP surely is outdated.

You can always receive the latest updates automatically, if you install adaway via f-droid.

And one more thing:

Can you check where your "hosts" file currently is located (using a file explorer like FX)?

Typically it will either be "/system/etc/", "/data/" or "data/data/".

You may need to change the settings in adaway or create a different symlink than the one I suggested in the code, but we'll see.

Please therefore also check the settings in adaway.

Open 'preferences' and look what is set under 'target hosts file'.

HI, Phil -

Sorry for the lag, was on vacation and too busy to mess with the phone until now.

Installing ver. 3.2 solved the problem. Installed and did its magic on the hosts file without any issues. Thanks!

I had been on 3.1.2. Basically, it put a up a box saying: "Copy failed. Copying of hosts file failed. Please read Help for more information."

I had added symlinks, etc., changed the target hosts file directory to data/ or data/data/. No joy. Appears to be all good now, though. Thanks again!

Hi guys,

AdAway is not working for me at all. I have AdAway 3.2 installed on my Mi5 on the latest version of LineageOS (Android 7.1.2). I downloaded the host files and enabled adblock, rebooted afterwards and it doesn't work in apps or browser.

I followed these steps, but still no change. (As far as I know there is no built-in ad blocker in LOS)

From preferences I selected target host file to be /data/data/hosts which created a symlink to /system/etc/hosts and from what I can tell this is the same solution as the one Phil Smith proposed however it still doesn't work

Any ideas on how to make it work? It worked like a charm on my Nexus 4 with LOS.

Thanks,

The version in the OP is deprecated since a long time.

I advice you to use f-droid and install adaway within it. This way you'll always be up to date with new versions.

However, if you don't wanna use f-droid download adaway 3.2 from the official website.

Hm, hard to say what's wrong then...

Have you granted root access yet? (was this even prompted? If not, have you tried setting it manually?)

Do you use any apps like firewalls or such that might block the app in any way?

And did you uninstall the old version first and then installed the new one? (Or did you update the old version?)

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ebusmaximus:
I've just bought a new Note 4, under settings and system it says it's the n910F version, but cpu-z says the bootloader is N910SKSU2COL1. If I boot it in safe mode (home button + volume up + power), it's says

Android system recovery <3e>

LMY47X.N910SKSU2C0J4

recovery mode (home button + volume down + power) gives me the warning in korean language then states product name as SM-N910S :confused::confused:

Also, and what bothers me the most is that I have a huge battery drain on the phone. I tried wiping the cache and hard resetting the fone for the 4th time now, still getting a massive battery drain doing basically nothing. I've just lost 15% in less than 40 minutes from a 100% charge. My guess is that the phone was "badly" updated from KitKat to Lollipop (KNOX warranty void is on 1, and i can't get the OTA update for Marshmallow).

I would like to update it to 6.0.1 (or again to 5.1.1 myself) to see it that fixes the problem, but I am not sure how to do it since my case is a little bit "particular" if i may say so.

I come from an iphone, so any help would be extremely appreciated, I am completely lost. :(

Thanks

PS : can't find the option to attach screenshots of my settings and battery.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trex888:
My advice Dont flash anything just use as it is otherwise you will lose what you have.

Long story short i bought also n910c and in download mode and cpuz says n910s but when i bought it was running marshmallow n910c firmware and it runs smooth so i didn't flash anything cuz if i flash original n910s firmware I'll lose 4g and there will be no option in settings to switch beetween 4g/3g/2g and it will show roaming signal all the time and also n910s firmware included korean bloatware apps that i dont want.

I am also stuck on june marshmallow update i can't update anymore.but still working very stable.my knox is also void but who cares about useless knox.

Try another battery cuz i think mine is just fine give me about 4+hours screen on time .maybe yours is not orignal or low class battery.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ebusmaximus:
Does it mean I won't ever be able to get Marshmallow? Now that's pretty awful... :(
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trex888:
You can update to Marshallow if you flash n910s official firmware but trust me you will hate it and regret.

My best suggestions will be sell it and get rid of it and get another model.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ebusmaximus:
Actually i went back to the store i bought it from, and they are all like this (N910S or V models appearing as N910F). To make things worse, even the labels under the batteries say N910F :eek:

The worst part being that horrible battery drain.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trex888:
The 1 shows n910f everywhere They are all refurbished

They can fake everything but not motherboard thats y in download mode your still shows n910s

Mine shows everywhere n910s even under the battery but the software only show n910c.cuz not refurbished

only they change software for multiple languages and 4g unlocking.

Check your battery if there is a chip kind of thing under the battery it self

Thats a chip for nfc and fast charge i beleive if it's not there then definitely your battery is fake.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ebusmaximus:
I know about the NFC chip in the battery. The one they gave me at first had nothing. I bought an OEM battery with the NFC chip, but still has the battery drain issue. This is giving me headaches...
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trex888:
Try this trick

Completely empty your battery to 0% until phone shutdown automatically

Then try to power on again if still have some charge left make it empty.

Then charge full to 100% while phone is turned off.

Unplug Then turn on phone it will be 98 or 99% plug in again and leave in charge for 15min.

Try this trick for 3 or 4 charges it will solve the battery issue and dont let phone heat up a lot it drains battery lot faster in any device.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ebusmaximus:
Already left it empty itself to zero this afternoon. Charged it back to 100% (took around 5 hours!!), wiped cache, factory reset, then lost 15% in around 30 minutes just setting it up (only installed cpu z, phone info and genuine galaxy. The rest was downloading the updates for the pre-installed apps, through wifi). I'll try what you said, but knowing that upgrading the phone to marshmallow will basically break it makes me pretty upset. Maybe i'll try to get a refund.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trex888:
Yea better get refund thats the best way to solve this headache.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ebusmaximus:
I'll try tomorrow, but they policy is replacement, no refund. I don't wan't another refurbished model with the same problems.

Another question : my bootloader and csc versions match the korean model, but not the pda, which apparently dosen't even exist (N910FXXU2COL1). Is it custom or something? How do they do that?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trex888:
They do through a dongle box called z3x or octopus this boxes they use to unlock sim for any device and fake the firmware.

Trust me the pda version is n910s also but its modefied and masked to n910f via this box .

Anyway they do stuff for all brands not just samsung.

1 of my friend bought note 3 sm-n9005 but i check the motherboard it was n900p sprint.i didn't tell him cuz he dont actually got any knowledge about this stuff he use as a simple smart phone.and he is very happy with it:confused:

More you know about flashing and rooting more you will mess up with the phone.

:cyclops:
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ebusmaximus:
Got a refund. Found a 910F with matching everything (pda, csc...). Slightly pricier, but if that gets me rid of the OTA upgrade and battery drain issue, that's good for me.

I WILL end up messing up with my phone, just not right now.

:D
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trex888:
Did you check in download mode ? If if says n910f then your motherboard also matches the software
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ebusmaximus:
Yes it did. I'll get it myself on monday, i'll take more time to double check everything before leaving the shop.
