[Zenfone 2 Laser Android Development] pokipokipxorn:
as lineageos 15 is in alpha stages, performance & battery endurance will differ across builds

my observations

build 0922 have just slightly better battery endurance than build 1017, but the ROM is progressing in other areas, so its a good tradeoff

hope the ROM goes to stable status soon
[Zenfone 2 Laser Android Development] albinsraj1:
Please add KCal color control and faux audio
[Zenfone 2 Laser Android Development] pokipokipxorn:
will only add battery related commits to kernel

BTW, use better battery stats (bbs) to check for abnormal battery drainage

anything below 0.5%/hr is very good for idle drain overnight

bbs must be set to "not optimized" under battery optimization

my screenshot shows idle drain of 0.3%/hr overnight, with WiFi on, no GPS, approx 11 hours, on lineageos 15 Oreo build 0922, no gapps, microG only with Playstore, Google Calendar, Drive, Keep & WhatsApp

WhatsApp is "Not Optimized" (battery)

Brevent mode is "Standby, the Force-Stop"

microG GCM ping is 15 mins for all network types

my custom kernel configured as post #2
[Zenfone 2 Laser Android Development] albinsraj1:
I know its not battery related but pls add color control and faux audio it will be great.. or start a new thread and make a new kernel that include everything... pls brooo... hopefully waiting

Does fast charging require a separate quick charge compatible charger? Or is the stock charger enough?

I was reading about it online but I'm not sure whether this fast charging and Quick Charge 2.0 are one and the same.
[Zenfone 2 Laser Android Development] pokipokipxorn:
fast charge is just normal USB charging, but with slightly higher voltage

quick charge support for Asus Zenfone is totally ZERO!!! It is not implemented by Asus on the Zenfone 2 series
[Zenfone 2 Laser Android Development] gavinfernandes2012:
Okay thanks for the quick reply, I was confused as the Snapdragon processor seemed to support QC 2.0 but I doubted the existence of QC 2.0 battery charging circuitry here.

Btw Great Work with this kernel, we finally don't have to run all four cores all the time now.

[MENTION=7878674]pokipokipxorn[/MENTION] thank you for your amazing work

I just wanna request that if you could make a profile in kernal auditor with all the tweaks applied and make it available in the thread that we can download and easily import to our kernal auditor

It will be lot easier and will avoid confusion

Thank you:angel:

For shorter charging times, consider using a short micro-USB cable. I am using a 6 inch cable, charging time is much quicker.

Okay thanks, I'll see if I can get my hands on one
[Zenfone 2 Laser Android Development] gavinfernandes2012:
What toolchain do you use to compile this kernel? Is it still the uber-4.9 one? Would the GCC 7.2.1 GNU one be fine? What about Linaro?

Edit: Ok I got an answer to first question, you're using the uber-4.9 one (kernel adiutor), but can we use Linaro? Do you think it'll work?

[Zenfone 2 Laser Android Development] pokipokipxorn:
For anyone struggling with battery sot, simply flash LKT in magisk

h ttps://telegra.ph/FAQ-12-24-2

It will help tremendously

Before flashing LKT, its best to

- use original ROM kernel

- uninstall Amplify, Greenify, Kitana, L-Speed or any other kernel or doze configuration related apps. Kernel adiutor is fine but do not apply any settings

Do not reboot manualy after flashing, let the phone reboot it self.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] barnumbirr:
I don't get this. My phone won't reboot by itself, if I want it to reboot, I have to execute:

fastboot reboot

How long does it take for the phone to reboot by itself?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] uliek01:
1 or 2 minutes, if you reboot manualy your phone can't get root

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Andalyn:
This may have been addressed, but I've searched and searched. A search of "Activesync" on this forum turns up 17 threads, none of which address this annoyance.

So, is there any way to keep Activesync from randomly starting on the phone, when not actually sync'd? Also, should I even be concerned about it, considering battery drain (activesync running for no reason, possibly draining battery?)

The wife and I both have Tilts, stock roms with a few plug-ins. Her "activesync" seems to turn on more often, for no reason. We've noted that her battery drains faster than mine, though it may be coincidence (both of our devices have essentially the same programs / stuff on them).

It just gets annoying finding Activesync running on the phone when not in use. Can it be set to only come on when needed (actually sync'd), and does it really matter? :)

Thanks in advance for answers. I swear I've looked guys, I just don't find this addressed here, and I know how annoying it is to answer the same questions over and over.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] snooginsguy:
Yeah, there are at least 2 things that cause Activesync to start automatically. the first obvious one is if you have an Exchange Server account, because it will start to sync with the server. The second is having the Automatic Time Zone update turned on, which is under Settings > Phone > Time Zones. Uncheck the box on that panel and it should stop Activesync from starting (unless there's something else I don't know of that causes it). For what it's worth, I don't think it's that big a battery drain, in comparison to 3G, wifi, GPS, etc. or even just talking on the phone.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Andalyn:
Thanks snoogin! We'll try that and see what happens. I know that the time auto update is checked as "on" right now, so that's probably the culprit. I didn't think it would drain the battery that much, but was curious. I'll write back here with my observations on overall battery drain.

Again, thanks!

My phone will automatically switch to German time zone when I switch on my cell phone in Munich, same when I come back home.

[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fabecoool:
Hi!

If you want a bit of background, you can read my previous thread (the third post).

Long story short: I have replaced my screen with a LCD + digitizer assembly, and I have no touch function. It is completely unresponsive, even in recovery, so I guess it is a hardware issue. Here are my questions:

- What else than a flaw in the assembly can it be? Some connector? A separate processing module for touch?

- Does the digitizer have to be glued to the LCD to work? I happen to have a spare digitizer-only, so I thought maybe I could disconnect the digitizer glued to the screen (but not remove it), and connect the spare one I have and test to see if there is some reaction, but given the short cable, it would just be dangling. This is just for test, though, but if you tell me it has to be against the LCD to work, then there's no point...

Cheers!

[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -totonio-:
I replaced my screen three times (LOL), i had the same issue, ask your seller for a replace, it is a HW issue for sure.

By the way, if you can't ask for a replace try to connect the digitizer and see if it works, but for my experience, unglue the digitizer and then replace it with the one you have is a "fool" thing, you can't do it with your hairdryer, you need a specific HW
[General Questions and Answers] Zedavatar:
Hello! Long-time lurker, first time poster.

I have a sudden problem with my Android phone (Samsung Galaxy S6 running Android 7.0). Hopefully you bright gentlemen and gentle-ladies can help me:

Approximately 1 week ago, my phone stopped transmitting Voice data on phone calls. I cannot hear what the other user says on their phone, and they cannot hear me, however, pressing number keys DOES transmit the dial-tone to the other user (both ways). It does not matter if I call them or if they call me. It does not matter where I am physically, I have tried in several locations around the city (likely on several towers). It does not matter if they are using a mobile or land-line.

During this time, all of my data connections work fine. Texts, Email and Browsing is unaffected. Phone performance is normal.

Since this has occurred, I have:

- Simulated battery disconnect

- Wiped Cache Partition

- Force-stopped the Phone app (all three instances)

- Verified the physical Microphone is working using the Voice Recorder app (it works fine)

- Booted the phone in Safe Mode

- Contacted my service provider to check in there was any problems with my account or transmissions.

- Transferred my Sim card to another device to test if my card/connection was ok. (Voice worked 100% on the secondary device)

- And lastly today; Completed a Factory Reset

I am sitting here now trying to understand how a hardware problem could possibly cause a failure of Voice encoding on only one app, and how to fix it. Or how a software problem survived the Factory Reset into the (semi-)fresh install.

Any suggestions?

I recall one fixing another phone that had a problem with its Capacitive Touch Screen being not sensitive enough/not reading presses problem by accessing a special menu that allowed me to re-download the driver. Is there anything like that for the Voice?

Thanks!

[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Guides, News, & Discussion] Pavan_Paps:
I mean what is up with zuk? They are not providing the users with the camera api2 baked in with the software. We ate lagging behind most other smartphones in terms of the camera department.

Yes some users have petitioned about it to the zuk devs but yet they say that camera is better without it? So since they are not taking any responsibility about this can we do it ourselves? I have seen many guides on the internet by integrating it (api2) with the help of Android studio. Is this possible or can we never see the api forever ?

[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] MeltdownSpectre:
So, I picked up a used HTC 10 yesterday, stock Nougat kinda sucks in terms of battery life and I want to switch to RR, however, my previous 2 HTC's had been S-OFF'd by me to switch them to the .401 WWE firmware, however this one is already on .401 so I don't want to get S-OFF since I don't really need it.

If I was to unlock the bootloader and flash RR, and then, want to go back to stock, how would I go about it?

As far as I know, there aren't any RUUs available for 2.41.401.41, so would flashing an older RUU work, and then taking an OTA to the newer firmware?

This is what download mode says:

*** LOCKED ***

htc_pmeuhl PVT S-ON

LK-1.0.0.0000

RADIO-1.0.U010241a@61226

OpenDSP-v20.0.8996.00007_0809

OS-2.41.401.41

Aug 2 2017, 12:18:15 (857212)
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] xunholyx:
You can't flash an older RUU while S-On.

First off, unlocking the bootloader will wipe your phone, so there is that.

To backup the stock ROM: After unlocking the bootloader and flashing TWRP, do a backup in recovery before flashing SuperSU. Then to take the OTAs, you will only need to restore that backup and then flash the stock recovery.

To get the stock recovery you could do a search for it.

Or you could download the OTA,

Transfer that to your PC,

Open it with 7zip,

Search for the recovery.zip in it,

Then flash that.

Chances are that an RUU.zip for x.xx.401.x will be posted here on XDA soon after it is released, so that is probably the best way to go.

Do a backup in TWRP,

Flash the RUU.zip,

Restore your backup. That way you'll have the new firmware.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] MeltdownSpectre:
So, I kinda crapped myself since I jumped the gun and flashed RR without making a TWRP backup and in the RUU collection thread, the latest one in the first post is older than the one I have, however a few pages down, someone was kind enough to post the RUU, OTA and TWRP backup for the exact 401 build that I was running.

Going back to stock is going to be a piece of cake now.

Cheers.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] baste07:
Is your network signal weak?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] RossTeagan:
This is a strange issue because usually battery drainage happens because of background updates and data transfer of certain apps.

Can you try turning off your mobile data connection and see if the drainage persists? You need to isolate the issue in order to identify it ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Jostian:
can confirm that switching data to 2G network vs 3G/LTE has drastically improved my standby time, massively, especially if there is no 3g/LTE in the area, the phone hunts continually for 3G/LTE thus draining battery, but after switching to 2G no problems, just means that internet is damn slow...
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] xRuisuCepi:
You can try hibernating apps that you rarely use. Also, phones tend to seek LTE; if it happens to be that you are in an area with bad carrier coverage, turn off your LTE.

On the other hand, try to uninstall unused apps and turn off Always on Display.

edit: also, check the battery usage of your apps. In my case, Facebook, Tinder (lol), Spotify, Messenger, and Snapchat are the apps that consume my battery a lot. Device Maintenance usually prompts me that about an app excessively using the battery. Nevertheless, hibernating apps would definitely help.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] ryanpm40:
Do you know if the device would still be searching for LTE constantly if Wifi is connected? I'm just curious, I live in an apartment that has almost 0 data, and phones tend to pick and choose whether they want to be on 3G or LTE here.
