I used to leave it on HSDPA to get mail every 10 mins, although make no phone call at all the battery only last a day and half. I was then disabled the HSDPA and 3G, just used GSM only, the battery extended at least to 4 days now, I still do get mail every 10 mins but only with GSM data. So if you find the battery do not last very long, you can try to do as what I did, disabled the high speed internet (HSDPA/3G) and leave it on GSM for a test in a day or 2. Hope this help everyone.

There are a few threads on this subject at the moment and I am sure the Moderators will thin them out but here is an observation I have found.

I travel quite a lot to different countries and use either my own SIM card or local ones to save money.

With different Networks and/or different operators, my battery consumtion changes radically.

I think it is a combination of Network polling (set by the local operator) and cell distribution (whether you phone is constantly searching for nearby towers) closer=quick fix father= constant polling that cause a problem.

This is over and above all our own device preferences and comms settings. :)

Hello, i just flashed magisk on 7.1.2 rr rom, and the phone will not boot up, not even to the sony logo, when i try to turn it on, it flashes green, when i try to enter fastboot, it flashes blue, when i conect it to a computer or charger, it will go green, turn off, then go green again, the computer recognises it, so does flashtool, but everytime i try to flash it doesnt work. i have also tried the off button and sonys software recovy program.

[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greatnorthgnome:
Hello everyone,

So I've been having some troubles with Bluetooth on two devices running nougat, and I haven't really found any good resolutions.

I've been practicing app development lately and was originally Bluetoothing the apk to my phones to test out (email or cord has been the obvious solution but I get obsessive and wanted to figure out why bt would not work). Weird thing is it was working fine for a couple attempts then it would not work. Laptop is an msi apache, it will connect and transfer to other devices running marshmallow and cyanogenmod no problem. But my s6 and note 5 on nougat will not work. It will attempt to send, time out and say device disconnected AND THEN I'll get the prompt on my phone asking to accept the file, but of course it's already disconnected.

Tried clearing cache, resetting network connections, disabling Wi-Fi, re pairing devices on the phones.

On my laptop I changed the device type from 128bit encryption to 40-58 or what ever it was.

Repaired, restarted, tried changing support services to a local service login type, reinstalled the bt driver... I'm assuming it's the phone but just wanted to list a couple things I tried.

Any ideas or just an android 7.0 issue?

Thanks.

Edit- first post and I put it in the wrong section, sorry about that! Should be in qa

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] GDane1:
Is there a way to purchase and on lock number here with a bypass that app because I need to unlock my phone going on the country any help be greatly appreciated
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] tommyg562000:
Not possible. You must use the t-mobile unlock app. If you purchased your phone from samsung.com directly then you need to contact support (t-force on twitter is best) and have them add your IMEI to their database so that you can use the unlock app. This takes 3 days in my experience with my two s8's purchased from samsung.com. Also, if you purchased directly from t-mobile you need to have the device fully paid off and have the device on service for 40 days. If the device is paid off but has been on service less than 40 days, you may still be able to get it unlocked, just contact t-force on twitter.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] cameljockey1:
I have been with T-mobile for 14 years. I recently bought a phone and after a month called customer care and asked for them to unlock it. They ask for what reason just say that it is easy for me to change sims when i go to Dubai to see my mom. lol somthing like that. then they will check your account and then tell you yes or no. It took 1 day to get unlock code for me.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] Braxton343:
I used the Moto G5 toolkit I found on here to root my phone (it's been forever since I last rooted, and it seemed like a simple, fast method), and I backed up my phone via the android backup option. It saved as a .ab file, is it possible to restore my phone to what it was before restoring/rooting last night (pre-root)? Skimming around, it's looking unlikely. Is there any way to get my phone somewhat back to what it was before? Unfortunately my grandma was signed into my account on an old tablet I gave her, and her stuff backed up via google, so I'm out of luck in that department.. Any advice is greatly appreciated!

[SuperSU] Tudor101:
I rooted my Samsung Galaxy S6 using Odin (v.3.11.1) and SuperUser (the name of the .ZIP file was N920_Nougat_Root_SuperSU_No_Kernel_included.zip), and I want to get rid of the root and remove any trace of it. I tried getting rid of the root from the SU app itself and it resulted in my phone being stuck in a bootloop. To get it working again I had to boot into recovery mode (TWRP) during the bootloop so that I could reinstall the SU .zip file, and now it works fine, but I want to get rid of the root access and any traces of it so that I can get the official Netflix app from Google Play (they made it so that rooted users won't be able to download it from Google Play), because most .APKs that I tried are quite troublesome and full of issues. I'm sorry if this is the wrong forum to be asking this on, but I am new to this website.

ALSO, it's probably worth noting that my phone first got stuck in a bootloop when I was attempting to install TWRP, and even though the install itself succeeded and TWRP recovery mode was working, my phone had been placed in a bootloop, and if it wasn't for the fact that I had already downloaded the SuperSU .ZIP file on my phone I don't think I would have managed to get out of the bootloop, so I simply flashed the SuperSU to get it working again and out of the bootloop.

I would really love some help here, I really have no idea what to do in order to get rid of both the root and the traces without bricking my phone.

Thank you.
[SuperSU] htr5:
As far as I'm aware LINK TO ARTICLE, Netflix is simply hiding the app from the Play Store if you are rooted. This means that you should be able to download the official netflix app from elsewhere and install it yourself. You can download the latest version here (ApkMirror is a very reputable source).

If all else fails, you can always just restore the phone to the factory set-up. This involves re-installing the firmware and will cause you to lose your settings and files. Follow this guide here: http://rootmygalaxy.net/unroot-restore-samsung-galaxy-s6-back-to-stock/

So I flashed twrp-3.1.1 using odin3.

I am able to boot into twrp, but cannot start the system (stuck on samsung logo)

I read that I should format data partition.

My question is - can I go back to stock bootloader and recover my data or am I lost here?

[edit] or is there any other way to access my files that are on the phone (and not on sd-card)?

UNROOTED!

I know titanium backup was always the best in the past but not sure if the last few years found better options for my S6 Verizon or if phones have better built-in backups. I think TB required root but i dont have that on my stupid S6 verizon. Otherwise, what other options do i have?

A guide would be appreciated, as I am afossil in the XDA world now!

I definitely want my photos/vids, my contacts (should be with google), texts, wifi/pws (thought it seems when I hit "Reset all settings" that it wiped them all, despite having "Backup to google" checked...), apps, etc all restored afterwards if possible.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maxaditya:
Simple one I would suggest is Samsung SmartSwitch. It pretty much backsup everything.

But for example. if you have any game data stored on your device. It doesnt backup. and if it doesn't backup WhastApp chat back up data as well.

I would suggest a twrp/cwm backup is the best.

Orelse use a USB OTG pendrive to simply copy paste all the files and folders required.But you will need to restore everything

And Samsung Cloud is the best option for backup and restore as of now. For cloud services upto 15 GB after that you will have to pay for the services

[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] nikexv2:
Hello,

Whenever i encrypt my phone on DU, when i set the lock screen Password it asks me if i want the phone to ask it to be able to boot, but then, the phone refuses to boot and says that the Password is wrong.

But when i boot into twrp the Password works and i can decrypt the data partition.

I already had the issue but with the phone accepting the boot pin but twrp not.

This is on a fresh DU install with previously formated data partition.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Simone98RC:
DO NOT encrypt via custom roms: it's cause of troubles and compatibility issues, especially when returning to OxygenOS.

So:

1) Put device in bootloader mode, plug it to computer, type fastboot format userdata via ADB terminal.

2) Go in TWRP and wipe all the partitions (be sure to have /cache formatted in ext4, otherwise change its filesystem):

3) Always from TWRP, flash latest OOS firmware (4.1.6 or OB19);

3) Reboot and configure setup with your PIN required at bootup;

4) After completing wizard, reboot in TWRP;

5) Now you can wipe anything and flash your rom.

Now device should require your PIN even at first boot of DU.

Ps until doing another fastboot format userdata, device will keep encryption.

[MENTION=5417261]nikexv2[/MENTION] sorry, but technically speaking, I don't know the reason of problematic encryption on custom roms.

Just enable encryption with official firmware and there's no other compatibility issue.

Encryption still remains when you full wipe device via recovery.

Been holding a bit of a rant in me for a while buuuut lets be honest, neither the S8 nor Pixel rooted/unrooted are faster than the iphone 7/8. It's processor, and optimization is waaaay ahead of snapdragon and atop of having waaaaay faster NVME memory. So if you are looking for the fastest phone, then simply buy an iphone lol. Root gives all sorts of very interesting functionality which is mainly what i would assume everyone on XDA wants to explore :). Sigh but that exynos and quad dac.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] martinj68:
Hi guys, have i got a faulty S8? I purchased it 24 hours ago to upgrade from my S5 , and mainly for a better video camera experience.

The S5 gave superbly sharp 4k video in all but the dimmest lighting conditions, though it was very jerky and showed a lot of rolling shutter jello effects.

So I replaced my S5 with the S8 after reading reviews and watching video samples, but with my S8 set to UHD, i'm finding the video looks more like HD as it's no where near as sharp as the S5

looking at grass and leaves in early evening light, they look mushy, whereas my S5 showed every strand of grass pin sharp.

So could it be i have a bad camera, or is the S8's UHD not as sharp as the S5?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] danman132x:
I'm coming from a Note 4, and I feel the same way. I mainly bought my S8 for the great camera that was touted, but my Note 4 had much sharper pictures by far. I will make a post with some side by sides eventually comparing the 2. The S8s pictures are more soft around the edges, not as much detail, and with high contrast areas (such as taking a pictures in a car of the gauges, black with white letters) there is a lot of bleed from the white over the black, like a fuzz. Video also seemed better on the Note 4.
