[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] flroots:
I'm researching call blockers. I'm currently inundated with spoofing type spam since most of the calls appear to come from my local area. Therefore I plan to setup the call blocker to block any callers not in my Contact list. After the call, I will check my voicemail to determine whether the call was legitimate. If legitimate I will tag them as safe so that future calls will be accepted.

While TrueCaller seems a nice call blocker, the free version has so many ads that they become a major distraction. The free version of Hiya is a joke and can't even meet my limited requirements. I like Should I Answer, but I'm interested in feedback from others before making a decision.

Just got my vs995 with 14B. I've tried to access the fastboot to flash twrp with adb fastboot, but fastboot wasn't accessible.

I've tried to downgrade from 14B to 12A using LG UP and successfully done, but the fastboot still inaccessible neither through "adb reboot bootloader" nor "Holding Volume down key and attaching a usb cable" !!

Any suggestion ?

I'm in a real need to root my vs995.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] runningnak3d:
Fastboot was removed. You need to root your phone with dirtysanta. You will then have an engineering aboot that has full fastboot commands...

Can you direct me to the proper link ? Because the link I know uses fastboot !!
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] tonycstech:
There is no fastboot on this phone. Phone has to have unlocked bootloader to get fastboot.

Search dirtysanta root.

it unlocks bootloader and enables fastboot.

Never, never, never try to do an OTA update with a Custom Recovery, it could **** up your device, same thing goes for rooted devices or with mods.

You have three options:

- Flash the Kdz trough LGUp+Uppercut, you'll lose both root and TWRP

- Install the update trough LGBridge (It could wipe your device), you'll lose both root and TWRP

- Flash the 11I zip trough TWRP: https://xdaforums.com/lg-g6/development/rom-eu-lg-h870-11i-rom-t3743582

[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] Emmiesxx:
I got my Pixel yesterday and was very excited to get my hands on it after hearing about the amazing battery life from those in the shop and on online reviews. The battery life was the main thing that pulled me in over the Samsung Galaxy S8+, but I'm not sure it's all it was hyped up to be so far! Day one with the phone, it was at 100% charge when I left the house this morning, within 5 hours it was at 60% and within 6 it was at about 52%. I checked my battery usage, the only apps I'd used were Apple Music which took 16%, messenger which used 5%, and Facebook which used 2%. All tabs were closed after I'd finished with the app, also. After seeing this, I was really shocked as to why it has drained so fast, considering I was told with light - moderate use it should last all day easily. Is this the average battery drainage or could something be up? It's not the worst battery I've ever had, but certainly isn't the battery I was expecting given how much the people in the shop/in reviews I'd seen had praised it.
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] an21281:
New phones or reset/cleared data/cache(rom flash, kernel etc.) need several days for the battery to calibrate. Give it some time to adjust, also could be settings or rogue app that is draining the battery. If it doesnt seem better you can use BBS(better battery stats) app or similar to see exactly what is going on
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] sstanton86:
Just to clarify you're talking about a pixel XL 2, as your title suggests? Just a bit confused as you've written this in the pixel 2 (non XL) forum.

For what it's worth though, I had a pixel 2 XL before my current pixel 2 (I moved just because I wanted something slightly more bitesize). In terms of screen on time I would quite easily get 6.5-7.5 hours on the XL all on stock and it just seemed to keep on going. My pixel 2 is also awesome albeit doesn't last quite as long. I'm currently on 17% and I have 5.15hours of screen on time. I've also used over an hour of Spotify with streaming over Bluetooth with that - so it definitely is good. It's also early days as this phone is new!
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] Rukbat:
[MENTION=4286239]sstanton86[/MENTION]:

Careful with that battery usage. The latest word I've seen from Cadex is to keep it between 40% and 90% (or a little less if you can) for longest life. And with a non-removable battery, that's probably what most of us want. (IOW, latest tests show that even if we give it more charging cycles, it lasts longer if we don't go too far up or much below half down. 17% might give you props, but it won't give you a great battery in 3 years.)
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] sstanton86:
Thanks, appreciate the tips - but bear in mind this was just the first few days of having the phone and it does typically represent my usage. If I charge once a day from around 10-30% to 100% of course it's naturally going to degrade. Bit by the 12 month mark, but likelihood is I'll have the pixel 3 then so it doesn't bother me too much!
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] Rukbat:
One of the things that convinced me to bite the bullet was that the P2 will be supported until R (raspberry-something?), so I'll still be up to date almost 4 years from now. (I don't even have a fingerprint reader on my current - and flagship - phone, but by 2020, I might just be ready for the Pixel 4 or 5.)

(And to think - I used to be a dealer walking around with 4 phones on my belt [we sold 4 carriers] and I'd think nothing of grabbing a new phone as soon as it came out and using it until something nicer came out - now I wait 4 years to upgrade.)
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] gvsukids:
And with the 2 year warranty, the phone might be replaced
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] Rukbat:
For a short battery life? Batteries are consumables (and you can kill a completely good battery in a month by treating it wrong), so even a battery that throws a dendrite most likely wouldn't be replaced (and that's not only a manufacturing defect, it's a defect in the technology itself).
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] WibblyW:
Do you have the reference for this? 40% - 90% is using 50% of the battery capacity. If that works for you, the chart below would suggest a range from 25% - 75% would give optimal number of cycles, unless I'm reading it wrong. It seems it's the higher % of charge state that stresses the battery most.

The chart below comes from here http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/how_to_prolong_lithium_based_batteries

[IMG="Battery chart"]http://www.batteryuniversity.com/_img/content/DST-cycles-web2.jpg[/IMG]
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] Rukbat:
First, that's for a 1C charge - cellphones, even Quickcharge 3, don't get near that. (A 1C charge would be charging a 3000mAh battery at 3 Amps).

Second, I use Cadex' chart from the same article:

Table 2: Cycle life as a function of

depth of discharge. A partial discharge reduces stress and prolongs battery life, so does a partial charge. Elevated temperature and high currents also affect cycle life.

Note: 100% DoD is a full cycle; 10% is very brief. Cycling in mid-state-of-charge would have best longevity.

100% DoD	~300 / 600

80% DoD	~400 / 900

60% DoD	~600 / 1,500

40% DoD	~1,500 / 3,000

20% DoD	~1,500 / 9,000

10% DoD	~10,000 / 15,000

But it's recently been discovered (no, sorry, that link I don't have) that charging to 90% is better for longer life than charging to 100%.
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] WibblyW:
You mentioned keeping between 40% and 90%, which is a 50% DOD. I think charging to less than 90% is much better so 70% -> 20% (or even 50% - > 0%) is much better than 90% -> 40%. Basically, what kills the battery is how full it is when you stop charging it.

I charge my phone up to about 70% unless I know I'm going to need the extra capacity.

[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] quuz:
I bought a Pixel 2 (non XL) 2 days ago, went straight for the March update and have only installed limited amount of apps. 25% brightness and 4G disabled (only using 3g) and no bluetooth.

Day 1: 100% charge overnight 68% battery left at around 17:00

Day 2 100% charge overnight 73% battery left right now Screen usage since full charge: 1h 31m

Does this seem normal? I was a bit surprised that I "only" had 68% left after the first day since I barely used the phone.

Or should I just let it calibrate and not think about it for a few days?
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] Colday96:
Make a factory reset and wait 3 days to see if there are any changes. I usually lose around 3-4% overnight which sound reasonable.

Hello

I live in Saudi Arabia , my phone is galaxy s2 plus (gt-i9105p)

I'm travelling to Yemen soon , I need my phone to support (Yemen mobile sim card) which only works on Verizon phones.

So I was wondering if there's any way that can turn my phone into a Verizon .
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RossTeagan:
I don't think you can turn your phone into a Verizon one. And you don't really need it.

Both carriers in Yemen are GSM networks, as it shows here: https://www.frequencycheck.com/countries/yemen

And before traveling, make sure your phone is not network locked to your current carrier. Just insert another Saudi SIM card (from a network different than the one you are using now) and check what your phone displays. As it shows in this guide here: https://www.unlockunit.com/blog/how-to-check-if-your-phone-is-network-locked

If your phone doesn't show any message and you can place an order with the SIM card from the other network than you are good to go. No need to do anything to your phone, just insert a Yemen card.

But I dont think anyone will use this fix. [MENTION=2823824]davidevinavil[/MENTION] fixed encryption a week before you so this thread really doesnt make sense. And its working great in the 3rd feb build of AEX, even camera, video and flash, already. Since most devs use his sources, itll be already fixed in all the ROMs.

Just personal opinion. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Yeah. Here is the correction. My rom with fixed encryption was published on February 2nd, before David's. And apparently, our fixes are totally different. His involved a 'bunch of blobs', as he said himself. Mine - just a little change in init.qcom.rc.

Edit: Now, he can use another 'bunch of blobs" trying to fix offline charging, which works in Jaguar O. Or he can PM me and ask for help. :) Cheers.

Due to his specs the OnePlus 5 should works perfectly... I can even make it working on my old Samsung Galaxy S5 and it runs smoothly...
[Android Drones General & Development] Anonymously_Unknown:
I assume you have all power-saving features turned OFF

I assume you have the "developer options" for your graphics / animations on the phone left at stock settings.

Does the OSD (on screen display) for your battery life, altitude and those things update in real time smoothly while the FPV is lagging?

If so, then it is more like a Wi-Fi communication issue over that specific port. Ensure you have no security/ antiviral apps running that would be scanning these types of ports (or doing any type of deep-packet-inspection).
