[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] webbrowser:
I spend a lot of the day with my phone tethered acting as a hotspot with unmetered data for my laptop, so the battery would drain very quickly if the phone was not plugged in. But at the same time, this means that I'm constantly plugged in and maintaining my battery at 100%, or if I return after a meeting or lunch, I'd be constantly charging from 80% back to 100%. I understand that both practices (keeping the battery at 100% and charging the last 20%) are not good for the battery. Since I usually have access to a charger, I don't really need to be charged to maximum battery capacity most of the time.

Is there any way to get the Pixel 2 XL to stop charging beyond 80% ?

Searches led me to https://android.gadgethacks.com/how...oid-device-avoid-excess-battery-wear-0176280/ That tells me to set /sys/class/power_supply/battery/charging_enabled to 0 to see if it charging stops.

But my Pixel 2 doesn't have /sys/class/power_supply/battery/charging_enabled. It has /sys/class/power_supply/battery/charge_disable instead, but setting this to 1 does not seem to stop charging. So it seems unlikely that Battery Charge Limit.apk would work. Does it work for anyone else?
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] krelvinaz:
This is wrong lithium-ion batteries are designed to be topped off, they last the longest staying above 30%.
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] webbrowser:
My understanding is that these are not good for battery lifespan:

- charging the top 20%. I.e. charging from 80-100% uses up more charge cycles than 40-60%

- keeping the battery constantly at 100%. I.e. storing at 50% is better than storing at 100%

Are these inaccurate?

And, is there a way to limit charging to xx %?

When should you charge your phone?

"Leaving your phone on the charger all night (or all day) is far better for your*battery*than running it down and charging it up. 2.*Charge*a little bit whenever you can. Lithium-ion*batteries*don't respond well to being*charged*all the way up and then run all the way down."

So recently a tried to put a new ROM on my LeEco Le Max 2 and bricked it. It does not allow me to boot into recovery mode, but i can get into the Fastboot mode. How do I fix my phone?
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] awjkok:
I followed this guide: https://www.gizmochina.com/2016/11/20/leeco-x820-max-2-super-unbrick-guide/

It worked for me.

After installing the Qualcomm drivers, open the device manager, launch Flash One, connect Le Max 2, push volume +/- and power (there was no screen activity but in device manager "Qualcomm QDLoader " became visible on COM 3), select device in Flash One (my case COM 3) and do as instructed. It takes a while but it works.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Glasswalker:
Hey, first post, been lurking here a while (been in the market for a new WM phone for some time, and finally settled on the wizard, affordable, and more than powerful enough for my needs).

Anyway, here are the questions that I just haven't gotten my head around (all the info is a bit overwhelming, so I am going to try and ask a few pointed questions):

- Are there any hard proven (or recorded) speed differences between WM5, WM6, and WM6.1. How about general stability (comparing a clean rom, with no addons, just comparing the base os itself).

- Are there features that I should consider in these roms that are cooked in, that I CANNOT get by installing them individually on my own after flashing?

- The device I bought was a used T-Mobile 5125. It is fully unlocked, and is flashed to 6.0 with Blackdiamond release (by previous owner). Will I have any trouble flashing this back down to 5.0 if I wish, or up to 6.1?

- If I reflash my device back to a factory tmobile rom, will I run the risk of re-locking the phone?

What I am looking for:

- Stability at least close to that of the factory ROM.

- As much speed (responsiveness) as possible without overclocking

- Simple clean rom, with only the basic features:

- (OS, Office, Touchflo, HTC Apps, Wifi, GPRS, Bluetooth, Camera, MP3 Playback, Java, Web Browser, Enterprise features, and perhaps one or two utility apps)

- Definately want a touch (thumb) friendly dialer/contacts app

- Definately want a touch (thumb) friendly mp3 player/media player (coming from an ipod, looking for similar simplicity)

Can't decide what you're looking for and what shud be advised ! :o

Can't answer all that ! :eek:

Simplest answer to that is what you answered yourself already 'I realize no cell is 100% reliable, but I mean "as reliable as any other cell on the market, or at least as reliable as a factory rom" ;)

Too much to read and answer. rofl

Read all the sticky themes and comments about: NBD roms, KhanX, Xda, TNT, Octavioi and Wm6.1 slim rom.

I reccomend u to use wm6. The best think would be if u use for work a simple cell phone, not pda. Cause stability and calls, sms..

Best mp3 player for me is http://www.pocketnow.com/index.php?a=portal_detail&t=reviews&id=385

u can get all cracked software at ppcwarez.org

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Glasswalker:
Sorry, kinda braindumped there... I will edit original post to be short and clearer...

See original post (Edited) for clearer definition of what I am asking.

lol, come on now... if I wanted "Factory rom" I would have ignored all this, and just reflashed to factory... But I don't think it is too much to ask for a non-factory rom, that is "as stable as" factory rom... Perhaps I am totally mistaken, and if so, then I am very surprised, but then so be it.

I will try and read through these again. I have allready read most of the TNT stuff and KhanX. (all like 60 pages of posts on each) and I am still having trouble really distinguishing between any of it (all seem to have the same mix of "this rom rocks" with "xxx feature is bugged" other than the specific bug posts, I couldn't glean many details from it.

I realize I sounded a bit totalitarian in my "requirements" when I posted originally, perhaps I came off a bit in the extreme. I do use the phone for work, every day. BUT I specifically chose to switch from a regular phone to a pda because I carry around a pda, cellphone, and ipod everywhere I go, I want a single device that does a good job of all 3 functions. and there is NO reason that a pda/phone cannot achieve this. (hell I will write the bloody software myself if I have to, it blows my mind that it is this difficult to find something that achieves this). lol :) all that said, I am willing to make some sacrifices in the name of featureset. I am looking for a balance. But when I say "I need stability" I mean that relative to the pocketpc phone scene.

Yeah, I noticed simpletunes... I have done a pretty extensive search, and so far simpletunes, or HTC audio manager are the only 2 mp3 players I can find that seem to be "thumb friendly" from what I have read. Mind you I have used neither so far, so once I try them both out I guess I will know better.

Question: is HTC Audio manager built into cube? or is it a standalone app?

Also, how do you find Simpletunes for performance? does it suck alot of CPU? or is it pretty light to use?

Thanks! (and sorry I am so bloody longwinded) lol.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] hawkeyenl9393:
lol no offence, but what i'm reading between the lines is still "what rom is best for me" :P

Anyway I'd advise using a proven ROM, since stability is such an issue for you. That would make me not wanna pick one of the latest cooked roms, since bugs often only show after some time, and take another time to fix. Having said that, the cooked roms always come with some software, it's just a long road of trying the software and deciding if you like it or not, nobody can answer that for you.

I personally found roms that have more software shipped with em not annoying, since i hardly ever use the start menu to reach programs. I just pick the programs i use a lot and put them on the today screen.

ROM im currently using is from the TNT series, runs very stable and fast without overclocking.

PS: I wouldn't take a ROM that has cube in it, since i get the feeling u dont want much hassle with your phone. Most ROMs nowadays have different versions, just check if it has this.

-xxx-&greetz

[edit]To answer some of your questions, as far as i know flashing back to factory rom won't lock your phone again(at least it didn't for mine). Besides that, i believe Audio manager is freely available, its a great replacement for windows media player[/edit]

[edit2]"Definetly want a finger-friendly contact manager" look at PocketCM, its a good app with touch-capabilities! Flashing back to older rom should be no problemo![/edit2]
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Glasswalker:
Awesome. thanks for the reply!

Yeah I realize that you see another newb asking "What's best for me" but that isn't so much what I'm asking, mostly looking for a starting point, and some clarifications on the questions I had. I will worry about making my own intelligent decision in the end, and I will try out at least a couple, just there are so many bloody roms out there now trying them out until I found one by blindly choosing would be hundreds of reflashes lol... Also as I said I will likely end up cooking my own in the end, but if I know a few good places to start, I can compare 2-3 good ones, and use that to learn enough to either cook my own, or at least then I will definately know exactly what I am looking for.

Also thanks for answering the questions about flashing back to factory... That gives me some relief, because I can flash to factory, and try that as a baseline... Then worry about extra stuff (so I know what is broken, or out of place).

The only reason I thought I wanted cube was because I was under the impression the htc dialer app, contacts app, and music manager were built into it... If they are standalone apps and cube is just "eye candy" then I definately agree, I have heard it can be a hog, and if it offers no useful functionality I will skip it for sure. Can you confirm, is it just eyecandy? (lots of people talk about it, and show it off, but in the end it is never clarified anywhere what the cube itself really is lol)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] hawkeyenl9393:
Hey, i got you're point not trying to ask a noob question, was just messing with you. I noticed with my private use that i don't flash a lot, i do it once in a few months, but once i find a ROM that i like, i just customize it to my own extent, and keep running it for a while. It's just too much hassle reconfiguring everything every 3 days. Well as far as i can tell audio manager can be installed seperate (not 110% sure, so check to be certain). I had cube on my phone for at most half an hour, the speed of it just annoyed me. Neither did i find it really usefull, i dont want to make 4 or 5 gestures before i've started the cube, and found the tab that im looking for. If u want something similar but much better, try Ultimate Launcher (google for it or look at handango.de).

Cube is nothing more then a fullscreen application, trying to replace todayscreen (but thats just my humble opinion).

-xxx-&greetz
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Glasswalker:
Ooh, yeah touch commander, and ultimate launcher look nice. Yeah now that I see the individual functionality of those apps, the need for cube is highly reduced lol...

PocketCM also looks to be exactly what I am after as well... So now I will have to try those apps out, and if they do what I need then I only have to confirm the mp3 player part... Will have to try those out too to see what I like. I like the "new" look of the htc audio manager, and it is finger friendly, but I also like the oldschool ipod look/feel of simpletunes... so I will have to try both and see which I like...

Thanks again for the responses!

if you got a bluetooth stereo headset for listening to music, find out which media players support it (used one myself for a while, windows media player was more then sufficient, since i didnt have to use my phone to control the player)

And as i said, just configure your phone the way you think works nice for you, you figure out soon enough if the apps u use do what you want them to. If they don't, ask on xda-developers if people have some good alternatives for it. btw a lot of people like the HTC Home today plugin, perhaps you should take a peek at it.

[Lenovo P2 Questions & Answers] Spectre242:
Hi to everyone! I'm Mimmo. Premise: I don't know English very well so pardon me please!

Scenario: a few months ago I bought a Lenovo P2 (P2a42), great phone but I broke it last week, the display and fingerprint sensor didn't work, and the body has some dentures (I've attached photos). The rest I think is working. Since I fell in love with it, I decided to take another one, but from China (P2c72 with P2a42 firmware) and this led to the inability to use band 20. Unfortunately, I didn't think the band 20 was so fundamental in my area (Italy)

Now, the question is: what locking band 20 on P2c72? Is it a software or hardware lock? In the case of hardware, can I disassemble the unlocked piece from the broken one and mount it on the working one? Or should I mount the P2a42 entire internal hardware in the P2c72 body (also using the P2c72 display)? Or is it better to leave everything as it is now? :D

I hope I have explained the question well, thanks to everyone!
[Lenovo P2 Questions & Answers] Spazturtle:
It's a hardware lock, so you would need to swap the motherboard.
[Lenovo P2 Questions & Answers] matteo0026:
In question & answers section there are some threads that contains some useful links of threads that explain how to unlock some bands. I ordered p2c72 and I'm in the same situation. I think that with TIM I won't have any problem, but if I see that phone stays on 3g too much time, I try to follow one of that guides.
[Lenovo P2 Questions & Answers] Spectre242:
Thanks for the answers guys!

Matteo, of course everything depends on how your area is covered but in my area there is a kind of "empty" or "fake" 3G that doesn't always work. Especially inside buildings where the 4G doesn't penetrate, the use of EDGE is frequent. However, I noticed that with the old phone (LG Magna H500F) I could navigate perfectly in 3G (same SIM), with this P2 (P2a24 and P2c72) the 3G doesn't work properly. I do not care much about navigating in 4G but I thought at least to have good 3G support! Instead, this phone becomes almost unusable with 3G ... Repeat, it certainly depends on the coverage of your area

So, I just have to do one of these two things.

Software mod: I didn't find P2-specific guides. Are those guides ok for my phone? Matteo, will you follow one of those?

Hardware mod: I read on the net that those who handle the frequencies (CA) is the modem but I can't figure out where to find it. I guess it's inside the Snapdragon. It would seem easier to swap everything...

thanks!
