[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mafioso:
Its a common problem on this phone and i think ita hardware battery related. Mujammil also faced it, i also face it sometimes but for me when battery goes <30%, then it can shutdown anytime especially when doing battery intensive task like navigation, etc. I heard others also face problem in amazon reviews.

Anyway you could disable standby intelligent power saving to see if it helps. Otherwise if its really bad, then you might need to pay visit to service center.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bornstud:
Yes, I know that.... And for that I have called service center in my city..

They said that it will take minimum 25days to replace a battery without any warranty..

So I avoid that..

Now plan to change device....

Have a bad experience with Infocus Device...specially with Battery...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mafioso:
oh, 25 days just to replace the battery :eek:

Maybe you can try to find a compatible battery of other brand with similar dimensions, but for that you have to open the mobile and then probably ask help from local mobile repair shop...

Does anyone solved battery drain issue after rooting?

Hi

Does anyone solved battery drain issue after rooting

while using Dolby Atmos+Viper4android

Will it be stable if unroot and lock the bootloader after installing both audio mods with minimal changes????

Edit:

i tried doing that and its found that viper4android needs selinux permissive which makes banking apps

not work... Supersu is required for viper to run if selinux not changed.So its hard to run it without root. Please anyone help.

Any suggestion will be helpful:highfive:

I need those audio mods badly because Infocus epic 1 has out-of-balance audio

left is more volume than right.....tried with many earphones.

and I love bass from Viper

Got the battery changed from accel frontline service center (infocus authorized) in Pune, last week. Unexpectedly, it was a pleasent experience. I had talked with the service center directly, they mentioned they just need my IMEI number to be able to order the replacement battery. After sending it, replacement battery came to their center in about 1 week. After which I went there and they changed the battery in like 15 minutes. Costed me 1300 for the whole thing. (700 for the battery+400 service charge+GST)

On a side note, changing battery on today's mobile is way too complicated these days compared to past. The guy had changed it in front of me by removing many screws, disconnecting cable and removing a panel before actually he got to disconnecting the battery.

https://xdaforums.com/redmi-note-4/how-to/guide-helio-x20-power-saving-settings-t3687897

I have tried both flavor 1 and flavor 2 over the past week. Results with flavor 1 were positive in the beginning but for some reason standby drain shot up after 3-4 days, not sure what the reason was.

On flavor 2, I have just disabled MTK perfservice by setting

ro.mtk_perfservice_support = 0 in build.prop

Yes this limits the a72 core to 1.5ghz, but i have noticed phone is heating less and need for charging the phone has reduced. I haven't noticed much drop in performance either, but that might be as I don't use intensive apps.

I found one guide to port TWRP using recovery of other device.

https://abrhambebh.blogspot.com/2016/09/guidehow-to-port-twrp-3xx-for-any.html

it's not very detailed, but i think i have got the basic idea from it, as i had prior experience of packing-repacking kernels. In your ealier attempt, the phone will probably refuse to boot with Vernee Apollo Lite recovery, as kernel present in its recovery might not be compatible with ours.

I've managed to create a recovery using steps mentioned there, also compared default.prop between 2 devices to change fingerprint value to our device. However, I can't flash the recovery created on my phone as my phone still is not recognizing any fastboot commands :(

I'm attaching the recovery file created. Use it at your OWN risk, if you want, as this is my first time at this and is untested.

Hello,

I had tried to root infocus epic1 with twrp,

But due to encrypted internal storage i didn't get access to internal storage so I have wiped internal storage, data and cache file.

Now I get access to internal storage.

But now problem is that I am now stuck to boot logo. Device is now not going to boot ROM

So what I can do now?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mafioso:
Is your device going to fastboot mode (power + vol up)? If yes, then you might be able to flash system.img via fastboot to restore functionality (i have asked mujammil786 for upload as my device also soft-bricked :( )

Otherwise, other option is to do complete restore via SUT through firmware files firmware.

Also which version of twrp you had used, is it the one i posted or some different one.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bornstud:
Yeah its going to fastboot mode,

But I didn't have system.IMG

And I had tried SUT but its failed to update .

Which SUT version I have to use??

No I had tested other twrp build xda friend.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mafioso:
I haven't yet used SUT yet, I was hoping system.img will do the trick for me.

Here is a modified boot.img created by a very senior xda member for our phone. It disables encryption and dm-varity

https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B4tnYt16-NAUZE5RQVlXZ2M4Mk0

If you want to try, you can flash it on your own risk using fastboot flash boot noveritynoencrypt.img.img

Maybe it will help you or maybe not. I haven't tested it myself, will probably do it in the night or early morning tomorrow.

Also can you upload the twrp version you have ?

I had modified system partition when asked by it was asked by TWRP on startup. The phone detects system partition changed and displays orange state prompt. However the phone was stuck there and not boot automatically to lock bootloader and erase userdata, even when flashed with stock boot.img and stock recovery.img. I had searched on net, it mentioned that i need to flash stock system.img to make the orange state prompt go away.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DespairFactor:
That prompt is verity, you will need to try the image I provided, that you posted. If there is still an issue, you may need to compile from source and remove the verity configs, or modify the verity driver.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mafioso:
Hi DespairFactor,

With your modified noveritynoencryption boot.img I was able to get out of soft brick which was caused by twrp modifying system partition as in post above (without flashing system.img back), however I'm still not able to boot the phone with TWRP installed. The phone still displays orange state message and then reboot again in recovery trying to erase all data. If I flash the stock recovery back, the phone is successful to do so and thus boots, however with TWRP installed it is unable to erase(it displays some mounting errors) and thus not boot.

So good thing is even though system partition is modified phone is booting so some verity check is disabled, however it is still unable to boot with twrp. Can you please suggest next possible steps.

Many thanks for your help here, again :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mafioso:
Ok, are you referring to TWRP need to be compiled from source or the kernel as you mentioned above.

If it's the kernel then we are probably out of luck as I doubt infocus will ever release source code.

This is not a kernel issue at this point, can you guys dump the partition table? Do you actually have a recovery partition? There is a problem with your twrp at this point. How are you flashing twrp to the device and where is the source for the TWRP?
