[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] crixley:
No problem! No it charges and discharges fine, it just only charges to 80%. No one is completely sure why, there are a few theories kicking around. It's the one thing keeping me from rooting honestly.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] drakemiller40:
Yeah thats a bummer. So basically it cuts your battery life by 20%? Or is it just a visual glitch?

Thanks again. Appreciate it!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] partcyborg:
It's not a "bug" really, it's specifically designed to do this by Samsung. Whether it was to keep batteries in whatever "factory" the firmware the rootable version comes from safe, or because Samsung knew it would be rootable and wanted to make running it less attractive, or some other obscure reason, no one knows for sure.

Is it a 20% reduction, or a cosmetic thing? It does actually limit the charge level of your battery. Is it 20% less use time? Not for me, in fact I get very similar use times then I did before rooting, as I have debloated the crap out of my rom and I keep the stuff I actually want present in check with amplify.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] drakemiller40:
Thanks. If Samsung did that to make rooting less attractive, imo that would just hurt them in the future if they continue to do so for that reason. Many people buy Samsung phones because its relatively one of the most popular phones that have tons of tutorials and guides to root fairly straight forward. If they are limiting that, then we will start to see more and more people look for alternative devices that have similar performance, design etc..that they can root without having to deal with the downside of intentional sabotages to root users by the manufacturer. As a matter of fact, I just got my s8 today which I had an alternative choice of LG G6, and if I knew that S8 had this issue, it might have swayed my buying decision. Both phones are almost toe to toe imo. I gave the slight edge to S8, which is why I got it, but this is ruining the experience. Albeit its not a HUGE problem, but who knows in the future if they will continue to do things like this or even add more discouraging/limiting aspects to rooting their phones..
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] partcyborg:
If that was the case before it certainly isn't now. Samsung actively makes it harder and tries to prevent root access. They just tried to (and likely succeeded) in patching the root samfail method for the n8 including incrementing the bootloader revision to prevent people from downgrading to root at a later date. All of these snapdragon based devices (with the exception of Hong Kong and china) have tightly locked down bootloaders with ridiculous levels of technology deployed solely to keep you from installing anything but their ad filled garbage.

They could give a **** less about enthusiast users or the modder community. They care about where the money comes from, and that's the US government (and contractors), and partnering with carriers so people can buy their $900 devices while on their minimum wage incomes. The government has strict requirements for employees and contractors regarding security where Knox is a big win, and the carriers want users to have LESS control, so they can shove more people onto the same few lte channels & claim high speed internet when it's so oversubscribed you don't get half what's advertised in practice (just WAIT until they rollback net neutrality!).

Root isn't where the money is, plain and simple. The only reason they do unlocked exynos devices in Europe and Hong Kong/china is that it's illegal not to in some places. The only way that's going to happen in N. America is with similar legislation.

Hey, since the USA government is royally ****ed 6 ways sideways and looks like it is gonna stay that way for the foreseeable future, maybe you Canucks can do the continent a solid and pass some laws making locked bootloaders illegal? If they have to sell Canadian ones unlocked they will definitely work in the us too and will be a lot easier and cheaper to acquire here. You fine folks to our north came through for us before with police scanners that also scanned the analog cell spectrum, video duplication tech, and plenty of other screw copyright protection devices back in the 90s and before, seems like it's time for another round eh? ?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] DareDevil01:
I have a theory on why Samsung limits charging to 80% when rooted. Their battery quality and longevity were greatly improved with the S8 and Note 8 etc after the Note 7 fiasco. They guarantee that the batteries in the Note 8 and S9 will hold 95% of their capacity after 2 years. I believe that this is due to a few things, firstly the makeup and build of the battery is improved and secondly I believe it's due to their charging circuitry and algorithms. When a phone is rooted people can bypass these algorithms and charge the battery quicker with third party kernels etc thereby potentially degrading the life-span of the battery sooner than Samsung advertise. They may very well be covering their asses legally. But then again you lose warranty when you root anyway right? So shouldn't it be up to us???
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] jasons1004:
I heard you can boot into recovery or bootloader and phone would charge to 100 after root but cannot promise as haven't tried myself
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] SomeGuy2008:
Sorry to revive an old thread,

Iv had my Note 8 since day 1 and am sitting on the Stock AQH7 build in hopes that another root method will eventually come about. I must say without root its been pretty stable for the most part. There are a few functions I do miss that require root though. From what iv been reading a new root likely will never happen that is not effected by the 80% battery issue. My OCD wont let me get over it not charging passed 80%. From my understanding most all of the devs have abandoned looking for another root method on the Snap Dragon Note 8 :(

One of the main (but not only) reasons I want root is to be able to automate enabling WiFi Tethering. Currently the only way iv found aware around this is to use AutoInput/Tasker to automate screen touches ect.. which works but is a bit messy.

The last few Android Phones I had where Samsung. My next will likely not be. Im bound to what my employer provides (VZW or ATT). Im thinking of going with the Pixel 3 or what ever is avail when my contract is up next year. lol

Hello my Friend,

Please share screenshots for this ROM.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime Guides, News, & Discussion] kibria.mgk:
You'll find screenshots on 4pda thread.

I haven't tried this rom yet. In distant future, maybe. I'll post my own screenshots then, and move this thread on rom section.

How is battery life brother?
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime Guides, News, & Discussion] BJumperBR:
I can't say how's the battery life.

I just flashed this ROM and after flashing Magisk 12, Gapps and restoring some settings from Titanium Backup, I've got areally nasty overheating on my device and just went back to my previous ROM (AOSiP).

Btw, I've been using Dual Boot Patcher app to test all recent ROMS (RR, AoSiP, Validus...). Good app to switch between ROMs easily (screenshot attached).
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime Guides, News, & Discussion] kibria.mgk:
Can you share the thread you followed for dual boot? Or write a thread on it? I've dual boot patcher apk, ends up booting into recovery every time I want to boot into secondary rom. If the ramdisk file of primary rom is modified, it also ends up booting into recovery.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime Guides, News, & Discussion] BJumperBR:
I remember having some partition encryption issues when I first started using DBP and I had to format data/system partition to remove encryption.

As you can see from the screenshot I posted, I've been using all ROMs as "DATA" slots. Secondary ROMs don't work for me either.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime Guides, News, & Discussion] kibria.mgk:
I have data partition formatted, phone shows not encrypted now. I'll try installing in data slot.

No extra tweaks are required then?
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime Guides, News, & Discussion] BJumperBR:
Just patch the ROM zip to a new data slot and flash it from TWRP.

And remember to patch all zip files you want to flash on the ROM (GAPPS, SuperSU/Magisk) to the same slot you used for the ROM.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime Guides, News, & Discussion] onkuba:
Nice rom. But Vpapers did not work.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime Guides, News, & Discussion] kibria.mgk:

[Sprint LG G3] patato21:
I bought and fixed the lcd on a sprint lg g3 ls990, but there's some network issues. First off I flashed the LS990 ZV8 TOT file from http://storagecow.eu with LG Flash Tool and selected Board DL. The issue is that it is detecting a network connection and in settings shows an old phone number. No SIM card is yet inserted at all. I flashed a ROM and I still have the same issue. Previously my phone was getting stuck on Configuring Your Phone during setup. Is there any other TOT i can flash to fix this issue? The ESN numbers are still correct.

I like the HTC-Voice-Recorder, it's simple and easy to use without the stylus..only the quality is so bad! The Notes program can record in nice quality..so the mic. is not the problem..

Anyone know how to improve the quality with HTC-Voice-Recorder?

Or, does anyone know a Prog which works on the Hermes WM6.1, which records directly to mp3s in moderate high quality?

I used to have one, but it broke up every 20secs or so and was unusable that way..

Thx for any infos :)

Don't know if you saw posts on other M-ROM threads, but there was a strange issue in 2.3 and 2.3

1, where the rom wouldn't boot without SuperSU. No matter if you flashed original unmodified boot img or if you tried to flash different superuser, always bootloop, unless SuperSU modified boot img was there. Personally I don't like SuperSU, and I felt a little sketchy that it was like that...

Is SuperSU included in Aroma, and did you test without it, and confirm that it boots? Thanks

Also I'm on Z3c mainly now. Any chance of a Z3c version?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] nhicko95:

[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] dmgZero:
I didn't read those threads, version 2.4 is the first one, where there is support for z1c.

I confirm that we have bootloops without SuperSU or with another root manager.

Have you tried install another version of supersu?

P.S.: I will try make z3c version, but probably some things can not be done, because I do not have z3c.

Hi. I installed [M-ROM] [7.1] v2.4.0 [amami] [Nougat 7.1.2] and I'm testing the third day. I really like the software, as if I got a new phone, for which I thank you very much. There are small bugs, they are not very significant, except for one: when connected to a computer via a USB cable, it does not see it. Charged, yes. Only the phone memory is visible if the phone is switched to TWRT?! Also there are no themes installed. In terms of productivity, ANTUTU is gaining 53.535?
