If I turned off cell data I'd have amazing battery life on any phone. That's why you have such battery life...
[LeEco Le Pro3 Questions & Answers] sk8223:
Well, yeah. Any phone with a SIM in it is constantly searching for a signal. But if you really want to know if there's a significant difference, test the phone's battery life with just Wifi enabled. If you're still getting bad battery life, it's something else.

I think it was the ROM I was using, LineageOS 14.1, using the new Paranoid Android Nougut (PA 7.3.x something) ROM, I'm getting two days of battery life. :)
[LeEco Le Pro3 Questions & Answers] cas8180:
Same here ;) my findings exactly!
[LeEco Le Pro3 Questions & Answers] PloniAlmoni:
I appreciate all Lineage is doing for ROM development, but it seems others have better kernels or something. Is it all in the kernel, do you think, or is there some battery optimization going on in the ROMs themselves?
[LeEco Le Pro3 Questions & Answers] cas8180:
People try to say that custom roms aren't as good as stock. I have been having nothing but stellar battery life on Paranoid 7.3.1 I can't much more than 6 1/2 hours and counting with extremely heavy usage. Was also taking photos all day

Reduce CPU usage, use Kernel Adiutor app, set max not 2140 Mhz, but 1400 Mhz, etc, I did this on my old phone 4.2 android and I usually had 1 week usage with 2500 mAh battery.

I still don't get what is little and BIG setting for CPUs.. I set them both lower.
[LeEco Le Pro3 Questions & Answers] Moon75:
Yes you are right, lower the max of CPU speed, normal 80-90% app run at not even 1000MHz. If you want more battery lower both BIg and LIttle core max speed down I can't see it mak ethe phone slow/lag or anything like that.

While I was recording in slo-mo mode at night, is it normal for the screen to be flickering? after i record and play it also flickers but say in the sun it records just fine though? I'm not sure why too and I'm pretty sure it happen both on my S8+ and Note 8 (exynos)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] SiNJiN76:
Flickering...or are you seeing Noise? I see Noise...no Flickering. Use the flash and Noise is gone.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] blecap:
Not noise, kinda like when I select the Slo-mo and just point at anything at night it flickers like hell but in the day it's non-existent, is it due to lightning condition?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Spere:
Was there any lights on nearby? Street lights or ones in house might cause flickering when recording video. Your eyes can't notice the flickering but camera can.

This could be one explanation

is there a site where I can upload a few seconds of the flickering somewhere?

Scenario is this I am in my room, it was night, so I switch on my lights (fluorescent light) when I point the camera to my monitor there wasn't flickering as soon as I point it away it starts, however, it doesn't happen during the day no matter where I point at.

LOL, of cause not.

Camera

Its due to higher fps higher fps needs good lightning condition .its not mobile probl
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] bober10113:
anything over 60/50fps will cause flickering when shooting incandescent/fluorecent source of light . power grid is on 60 or 50 hertz depending of the region of the world you are in.

Your camera is basically capturing the inbetween state of the power current. At 60 hertz means the negative and positive state switches 60 times a second between left prong and right prong on your wall outlet hence the term AC( alternative current) versus DC.

(some camera softwares try to compensate by dropping frames to not match frames that are inbetween power states)

Hello members!

I've got on my hand M9 with problem:

When trying to start phone goes on white screen wit HTC logo with "This build is for development purposes only..." then bootloop.

Vol Down+Power -->

Software status: Modified

UNLOCKED

S-ON

Reboot to bootloader --> Goes back to the same screen

Boot to download mode --> Failed to boot download mode. Press volume or down to back to menu. (On the black screen with HTC logo and "red message" at bottom)

Is this a SW problem which is possible to fix or HW problem with Nand/EMMC chip :confused:

[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] chevycam94:
There are probably already a couple guides up, but I wanted to post about how I went about doing this and have everything working. It may not work for everyone, but for me, it worked the first time.

0: Yep, there is a step zero here. :good: BACKUP YOUR PHONES INTERNAL STORAGE! IT WILL NEED TO BE WIPED FOR THIS TO WORK!

1: Flash factory image of 8.1 WITH the "-w" (wipe) command (LINK HERE)

2: Allow the system to boot. (optional: complete setup wizard and update apps)

3: Connect the phone to a PC and copy the TWRP 3.1.1-1 ZIP installer to internal storage (or download it via browser) (LINK HERE)

4: Download Magisk 14.3 using a PC or the phones browser, to internal storage (LINK HERE)

5: Reboot into bootloader (using the POWER + VOL-DOWN combo)

6: Fastboot BOOT TWRP 3.1.1-1 (LINK HERE)

fastboot boot twrp-3.1.1-1-fastboot-marlin.img

7: Once TWRP has booted up, flash the TWRP ZIP installer from step 3 (do NOT reboot to the OS yet)

8: Reboot directly to RECOVERY

9: Flash Magisk v14.3 from step 4

10: Reboot to Android and you're done!

Working TWRP and fully working root!

Only issue I'm having so far with TWRP is that MTP doesn't work. I can't transfer files to/from the phone while connected to a PC. That's why the file transfers have to happen while booted into Android. A TWRP update will likely fix this.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] matlear:
Hello, I followed these steps and all is working great, now I have activated fingerprint lock on my device and pin code, TWRP tells me that the pin is wrong when I go in to the recovery ? Any ideas, I did the procedre twice from stock and twrp tells me that the pin is wrong every time :(
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] mikaole:
Known issue on 8.1. Twrp is not working properly.

Just don't use pin or pattern at all.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] kingbri:
I need security on my phone, I would rather just wait for the TWRP update and/or actual 8.1
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] chevycam94:
At the rate TWRP gets updated, you'd have to wait till December for that. And sometime in December, 8.1 Final is supposed to be out.

Not sure if it works, but you could try disabling security, use TWRP for whatever you need, then enable security again when you're done.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Mckillagorilla:
So when you say flash with wipe command. You mean flash the flash all with -w tacked on the end?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] bl0wndiff:
Yes, in other words: do not edit flash-all.sh.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Born<ICs:
? No to editing file. The file flash-all.bat already has the -

w command in it. (use Flash-all.sh if you use Apple).

The reason post #1 instructs to wipe with the -w command is because some are used to removing the -w to preserve user data when flashing. For this root solution that won't work.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] djide:
worked perfectly for me ... no errors so far.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Scottay5150:
Let me rephrase. I wiped the phone, went back to 7.1.2, took 8.1 OTA now I want to root without wiping. Is this possible?

Yes, I am rooted and on it. Same procedure.

On the Pixels yes you need to be bootloader unlocked to root.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] eddi0:
having same problem (says wrong pin), why do almost all guides that for Pixels you need to set up a pin in order to flash TWRP/root properly? Confused.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] TonikJDK:
The phone is encrypted, it needs a PIN to authenticate to the OS to decrypt.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] eddi0:
I actually had to factory reset it and NOT use a pin for it to work properly (after factory reset go into settings>security>none for screen lock). I know in the past a pin was required but as the second post states Magisk 14.3 is not playing nice with 8.1 beta.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] kitila:
If you are already on the dev preview you can skip the step for the os and just do the steps for twrp and magidisk. I did it last night and worked perfectly and I didn't don't have to wipe my device
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Pain-N-Panic:
followed the guide...my phone has been stuck on the google loading screen for about 3 minutes now. is this normal? if not, i guess i'll have to flash the stock boot image and try again

odd, isn't working for me. Phone keeps freezing at the google logo boot screen. Anyone have any ideas?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Donric13:
Had similar issue. For me it helped to flash boot.img to both slots. Also check the slot before booting. Make sure your phone boots in slot a. Maybe this hrlps. If not try to reflash flash-all.bat without - w.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Pain-N-Panic:
I eventually got it working but used super su sr5.

Also, anyone thinking they can flash the preview without wiping data, don't. I removed the -w from the flash all script the first time flashing. My data got corrupted and was forced to do a factory data reset and ended up losing everything on my internal storage lol.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Donric13:
Just to clarify: flashing preview without wiping does only work after flashing it before with - w! But after once having installed dp1 flashing without wiping is working (don't forget to remove security pin before if flashing twrp after).

PIN method still broken on 8.1 final release with TWRP 3.2.0.0 on Sailfish (Pixel XL)

If anyone is curious, I suffered through this TWRP pin issue today attempting to do a flash-bat.all (with -w intact). I wish I found this thread first, as it took me all afternoon of reflashing 8.1 and starting again, then trying to *not* set a PIN, and it finally worked.

Process - assumes you downloaded all files below, and transferred all to the device (except the 8.1 factory image and twrp-3.2 image which need to be in your ADB folder):

1) Extract marlin-opm1.171019.011 to your ADB folder

2) "Shift / Right Click" within Windows Explorer in ADB folder and select 'open command window here'

3) run flash-all.bat

4) when install completes, skip setup, go to settings, enable developer mode, and check "USB Debugging"

5) Turn off device and press 'power+volume down' to boot into Recovery

3) fastboot boot twrp-3.2.0-0-marlin.img - Pixel XL TWRP Link

4) In TWRP, install twrp-pixel-installer-marlin-3.2.0-0.zip - Pixel XL TWRP Link

5) In TWRP, reboot to *recovery* -> *do not* reboot device

6) When TWRP relaunches, install Magisk-v14.5(1456).zip - Magisk Download page

7a) At this point you can restart the device, and begin your setup since data cannot be saved via this method by removing '-w' in flash-all.bat

Optional - Install ElementalX for Android 8.1:

7b) In TWRP, reboot to *recovery* -> *do not* reboot device

8) In TWRP, install ElementalX-P-3.00.zip from the ElementalX download page, which now features v3 for Android 8.1

9) Reboot device and continue your setup

Regards,

Janx
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] TonikJDK:
Why are all these guides saying wipe your phone? I get that maybe going up from M to O but dang just put Magisk on a USB drive hook it to your phone and boot to TWRP. Cancel on the password screen, select install, select storage and install it from the USB drive.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Neodous:
Having an issue when I temp flash twrp, I go into twrp and flash the zip then reboot back to recovery. All I get at this point is the twrp splash screen... I have tried to reflash the zip and does not seem to be fixing the issue.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Droid_Evo_8:
So mine restarted itself without my knowledge of installing 8.1.0. Does this work too on the installed 8.1 instead of the preview? Same principle?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] edjanx:
The guide was based on the official 8.1 image shortly upon its release.

I wanted to install the January update, another current issue is that Magisk notes "Stock backup does not exist!" When I follow the noted procedure to cluck Uninstall, then "Restore Images".

Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

you are the first person ever other than me that ported REPIT to a device, congrats!!!

if you want an official port however, you still have to follow the docs and post a repit-dump of your stock phone... which unfortunately you can't do because you already repartitioned... :(

Hi, I've got the same device, I'm attaching the LOG here. I've raised an issue in GitHub, but I was unable to attach the file (unspecified error).

I'll monitor Github and this post, if nothing happens I'll implement the code from the OP; looking at the cat proc/partitions the numbers do match. :good:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] camp0s:
As a sidenote, I think it could be possible to reduce the partition 18 too, 1GB is too much for CSC.

18 138MB 1212MB 1074MB ext4 CSC

On my s2 (i9100) is already 100MB - what do you think?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] camp0s:
Hi!

Small update, I correctly resized my CACHE partition down to 100Mb, from 1Gb (!).

Attached to this post is the "script" file you need to replace in the Lanchon Repit zip file, this will work for the Galaxy i9105/p.

Relevant changes are these ones:

initPartition 18 CSC	cache "same keep ext4" 0
initPartition 19 system system "same keep ext4" 0
initPartition 20 HIDDEN preload "same keep ext4" 0
initPartition 21 userdata data "same keep ext4" $footerSize

and

configurablePartitions="$(seq 18 21)"

..and a couple more just to work on this partitions ordering (just replace entierly the original file with this one attached).

Naturally, rename the Lanchon script to:

lanchon-repit-20170115-cache=100M+wipe-system=1.1G+wipe-data=max+wipe-preload=min+wipe-i9105.zip

This will give you a system partition of 1.1G, max Data partition and minimal 100Mb Cache. I think it's possible to downsize to 50Mb or less, might do it later. The phone works well, I'm using the RR 5.84 (7.1.2).

FULL credit to Lanchon original Repit and the OP of this post.

[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] corster88:
Whats the solution?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] LeMoise:
The solution (I think) would be to wipe data and flash the entire stock image for your phone, then re-lock the bootloader. This will make sure that any folders/files pertaining to being rooted are gone and shouldn't cause any problems when it comes to validating your OS. Just make sure you properly unrooted SU by using their uninstaller/unroot tool before wiping and reflashing.
