[Sony Xperia XA Questions & Answers] altmash mirza:
This is because a good feature called qnovo adaptive charging that increases your battery life by controlling charging current

Yes xa supports fast charging by its hardware side but also it has qnovo that increases the charging time so that there might be much little chances of mobile lefted to the charging after completing the 100 percent mark.

This is good thing

I also has uch12 and uch20

Uch 12 charges mobile fast

If you want to see differnce between them

Chek between 0 to 60 or 70

After that charging speed controlled by qnovo

Adaptive charging that is a good thing comparig to fast charging and also only sony phones has that feature

Thats why other mobile charge fast then sony latest x series

Sony does not considering about fast charging and charging a mobile in half an hour like dash charging

But it is considering about long life spane of its smartphones

Cause all the fast charging techniques work by heating the battery

That is not a good thing for a mobile if you want to hold that mobile for 2 to 3 years

I have uch12 and uch 20

But now a days i am using 5 year old xperia S charger that charges my xa in 3 to 4 hours

Because of slow charging i dont have to see any heating issue by continue using it

Thats why i prefers slow charging

[Sony Xperia XA Questions & Answers] cheapster8:
Yeah Qnovo charging is great but on the other hand sometimes you just need to charge your phone quickly. How long does your phone take to charge lets say from 0% to 70%? :o
[Sony Xperia XA Questions & Answers] altmash mirza:
With uch 20 it takes 1 hour for 63 to 67 percent

With uch 12 it takes 50 to 55 minutes for 63 to 67 percent

As of now you can watch videos even the xperia xz xzs and xperia xa1 also take similar time

That's make a conclusion that you cannot expect fast charging from sony

But you can expect more innovative thing called adoptive charging that is not offering by any other brand
[Sony Xperia XA Questions & Answers] LotR656:
I agree with [MENTION=5397598]altmash mirza[/MENTION] . That is how fast charging works. You can't messure fast charge after 70% or 80%. My charger UCH20 takes like 40 to 50 minutes to charge more then half of battery (with stock cable.Yes, cables are also really important) and when I connect phone around 8% I get 1600mA to 1700mA. So something is wrong with your changer or cable and like [MENTION=5397598]altmash mirza[/MENTION] said heating is not good for battery life, soon or later you will have to change it (that is why most companies give warranty of 6 months).
[Sony Xperia XA Questions & Answers] jimmyfigrolls:
How did you get 1700mA?
[Sony Xperia XA Questions & Answers] LotR656:
I don't know. I just plug it in.
[Sony Xperia XA Questions & Answers] jimmyfigrolls:
That's crazy, our charger is rated at 1500mA output and I think the highest I've got is 1540mA. There seems to be a lot of variance between chargers.
[Sony Xperia XA Questions & Answers] abhish3k404:
Does motorola's turbocharger can fast charge Sony Xperia XA in place of UCH12 ? :confused:
[Sony Xperia XA Questions & Answers] BlueTR:
This is what I get using UCH12 charger and UCB16 usb cable.

2100 is the max value for F3211 I guess because it doesn't go further. Average rate is ~2000 ma.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wheelbarrel:
I have a fire tv 2, rooted, that I was updating the new rbox rom he posted . I dirty flashed like I have since the beginning lol. It loaded the boot screen for TWRP, then goes to the white amazon logo and just hangs there forever. So i decided to wipe it and wiped everything but external SD and USB. Went through whole process again to install rom, but still got same results. That is when I started searching. Found a post by rbox that recommend wiping cache and a few other things to try. Nothing worked. So I decided to use unbrick.img, and that did not even work.

I know it is not hardware, as I am doing this two different Fire TV 2 boxes.. I have spent too much time on these two boxes lol, but they are al have for tv! I need some help! lol

thank in advance for ANY thing i could try!
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blue1978:
This happened to me too. Seems clearing cache cause this for some reason. Next time do advanced wipe and leave cache unchecked. This will fix issue. It will take an hour or 2 to finish. Good luck.

Thank you for your reply! I assume you mean the unbrick+ramdisk.img? Because you said it would take 2 hours, and unbrick+ramdisk.img take 2 hours, whereas the unbrick.img only takes 30 mins.. And I have only tried the latter :D I will try unbrick+ramdisk.img right now and report back!

[General Questions and Answers] shlnz:
Hi everyone,

I recently switched to Android 7.2.1 and I used Llama to switch off the PIN when the phone is connected to my home Wifi.

As I've read, enable/disable the lock screen from App's is no longer possible with Android 7.x and the SmartLock is no option for me.

Is this correct, or is there no possibility that apps can disable the Lock Screen via the "KeyguardManager", "FLAGs" or other hacky solutions on Android 7.x anymore?

Thanks,

shlnz
[Touch Cruise General] MrSmith22:
I just bought the phone and here is some info:

1. The phone is the silver coloured one, not the black one.

2. In some shots you see that there is a blue ring light on the D-Pad, not sure if this has it.

3. The phone is quite slow, even after removing all the plugins o2 installs

4. It does not come with HTC Home plugin, you have to install that

5. I bought the phone on a 12 month contract, £40 quid per month and the phone for £30 all on a new contract. Not sure if this is the best deal but they didn't budge.

Overall, I would just say if you don't need it, then don't get it. I needed the phone and after seeing how slow it is, I'm having second thoughts.
[Touch Cruise General] dr_s:
:D I'm so happy that O2 version is not black ha ha ha ha....

I liked the original HTC version, which I have got, the shape and scroll wheel with light, but only thing I was jealous about Orbit-II was its full black colour shown in pictures ....

Now I'm satisfied that original is THE BEST .... :cool:

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mascarponi:
Hi Guys,

I'm a favorite user of our S4mini. But having it for almost 4 years now i'm starting to see it gets a bit old. I have used several custom ROMs, but in the end all are ending up a bit slow..

So i'm looking for a follow up device. Any tips? Right now I'm thinking on buying the Galaxy S7..

New phone should be;

- Fast, 'flagship' specs

- A great custom ROM community

- Good camera

- If possible, not to BIG (s4mini size is perfect, but hard to find i guess)

thats all ;)
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mario24601:

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matesurano:
Here is my story...

Was looking for something compact and lightweight like s4 mini and also reasonably powerful (don't need flagship power. AMOLED and non stock Rom is also must. Bought a LENOVO P2. ...used for 2 months and sold it. Pros: Good battery life and ultra fast charging. What i didn't like was size and weight...too big for my hands. Also didn't like the Rom as it was close to stock.

Then i bought zuk z2. Liked nothing. Specially the LCD display. I will never buy anything if its not AMOLED and that too SAMSUNG calibrated. Device was thick and boxy....ergonomics were poor.

Moral of the story: only flagship cpu and very big bbattery don't make a good device. Its balance and optimisation of everything. And my opinion is SAMSUNG has mastered the art of making fantastic android smartphones. I hate stock,Los/based, miui etc. After trying everything....touchwiz(tweaked) and Flyme os are the top.

So far i have short listed GALAXY A5 2017. Though it is still large to my standards. ....after the recent price cut it seems the most viable option to me. Thanks for reading.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mario24601:
I started with trying to replace 2013 moto x. Tried the following :

Galaxy alpha

Galaxy a3 2016

Galaxy a3 2017

Sony z5 compact

Sony x compact

Oneplus x

Now running galaxy s5 and s4 mini both on RR and working pretty good. I prefer size of s4 mini but it is Lil under powered.

Wish I would have kept oneplus x. Now waiting for new Sony compact.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnSoong:
I have decided on the HTC 10, now that the price had dropped to ~ 1/2 of the launch price. It is one of the better "ex-flagship" type phone that is not too big, still is plenty powerful even tho it has last year's Top SOC.

Unlockable bootloader & great ROM support, and solid build. Design is a bit dated, but I think it will be a solid phone for me. (Ordered on-line, awaiting delivery ....)

The S7 is my second choice - better screen, better camera. But I am leery of the glass back, and the use of micro USB rather than USB-C swayed me towards the HTC. Plus Samsung's update record is spotty, and you can only get ROM support if you get the G930F variant. And Sammy seemed to have added multiple hurdles to the bootloader unlocking process compared to the S4 mini.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlackDontCrack:
I was pretty much in the same predicament as you. After first giving the new Nokia 6 a chance, I decided that the screen (5.5 inches) is too big for my liking, especially coming from a S4 mini with a 4.3 screen, so I returned it.

I then decided to get the S7 (flat; not the edge variant) a chance, and so far I'm happy with it. If you get one with an Exynos processor, there are enough different roms to choose from (https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s7/development).

Plus, it's also Samsung so it's not something completely new. Yes, the screen is larger as well (5.1 inches), but with a nice back case to get a better grip on the phone it's still decent and not too big if you ask me.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mario24601:
What rom you recommend?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlackDontCrack:
Let me first say, I don't consider myself an expert like that. I've only tested a few so far.

For example, Official LOS, which worked quite well. The only problem was that my S7 (SM-G930F) unfortunately has different camera sensors than most others. It looks like sometime in the last 1-3 months, Samsung has started to also use Sony camera sensors instead of the regular Samsung ones, which are not yet supported by LOS, so my camera isn't working when using LOS. It just stays blank.

The developers are aware of that and there might even be a fix for this issue, but I haven't researched it that thoroughly.

I wanted a rom with root, Xposed (Xprivacy, Gravitybox, and a whatsapp module) and all the main features, so I'm now using Helios 7.20 with Magisk and Xposed enabled. So far, everything I need is working, so no complaints on my part. I haven't updated to 7.21 yet, so I can't tell you how that version works.

Battery life is okay. No huge drain, but then again I have gps and all them location services disabled, but my data connection is turned on 24/7.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] PentagonVS:
I used to have an LG G3 which I rooted and installed custom ROMs on. I stopped doing this for my LG G5 when my bank app and Pokemon Go started checking for root and would refuse to run on rooted devices.

I see that it is possible to install TWRP without rooting my LG G6.

Does this mean that I can install custom ROMs on my phone without the root detection causing me issues for these apps?

Thank you
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Killua96:
Just use Magisk (Fulmics has it included in the aroma installer) and you can hide root to the apps with MagiskHide and pass the safetynet.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] PentagonVS:
Thanks. I looked up Magisk. If this app would keep itself up-to-date that would be awesome.

I guess for now I'd rather not have to rely on Magisk, since I might have to wait for updates to it, when my my banking app updates it's safetynet code.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Killua96:
Didn't understand nothing. Magisk allows to hide root from the app you choose and doesn't break safetynet at all, and safetynet is not app-related but system-related so you should wait for updates only in case of android updates that break some function of magisk.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] PentagonVS:
I assumed safteynet is built into the applications, such as my banking app. I thought that they can update safteynet within the app and thus break the hiding of root.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Killua96:
Don't know if it's built in Android or in the GServices but it's a google thing, not an app one =)
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] ASW1:
Still, with magisk your device could stop passing safety net any when Google decides to raise the standards. You would then have to wait for magisk to update and pass the safety net test again, or decide to (temporarily) uninstall magisk.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] BudParker - XDA:
I've been a user of S7 Edge for nearly a week now, so I'm certainly not an "Old Hand."

My current dilemma is trying to figure out why I can not seem to create Folders on my Edge to store and organize my Icons. I understand that you can touch and hold one icon and quickly swipe it onto another icon, creating a folder. After 2 days of trying everything I can research online and trying all of it, I still seem not to have found the Holy Grail of Folder creation!

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] mar122999:
I spent a good chunk of time yesterday trying to figure out how to make the Samsung Gear S3 Frontier (LTE verision) watch play I Heart Radio or Spotify independently from my Samsung Galaxy S8 phone. Everytime I go to play I Heart Radio on my watch, it opens and plays it on my phone. If I turn my phone off or disable bluetooth, the watch gives and error message and doesn't play on the watch. In other words, if I decide to leave my phone at home and want to play IHeart Radio on my watch streaming to my bluetooth headset, I can't!

Is this possible or will I have to manually transfer music to my watch to play on it independently?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] mimo2008:
Maybe the app ain't been fully optimized for the watch yet.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Charkatak:
Is your bluetooth headset paired with your phone? Normally there is an option under bluetooth setting of a phone and/or your watch. For example in the phone, you will see a setting for your particular bluetooth device when you tap on the gear: call audio, media audio...there should be toggles to turn it on or off. I had Gear S2 and did adjust it that way, but I had an issue with my car system where music/calls were not routed through watch and car.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] mar122999:
Thanks for the reply. I've tried Bluetooth to both (phone and watch). Using a streaming app such as Iheart Radio and spotify, I can't seem to get it to play independently from my phone even though the watch is LTE with a SIM. I will check that setting though, but I would like to bluetooth it to my watch, leave my phone at home, and stream IHeart Radio while I jog...etc.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Charkatak:
I haven't used an app to play anything, but I did have 5 MP3 songs on my watch(for testing purposes). Is the app that you use, is on your phone or the watch?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] mar122999:
App is on both. I believe those two particular apps auto installs on both phone and watch.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Charkatak:
As I understand, your phone needs to think or see your watch as a media playback device as well and not only a calling device. After that it will direct sound through your watch's Bluetooth accessory that is connected to it.

Also I think not all bluetooth headsets are able to play music through them, so try another bluetooth headset or bluetooth headset that was designed for music(unless you already using this one)
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Jrayh:
I would also like to steam music on my gear s3 from i heart, Pandora, or etc. Is there a way to do this without having my s8 phone in range of my watch?
