I had just downloaded the 8.1 beta OTA, then i got the notification of the 8.1 stable OTA. Downloaded it just fine. Running smooth so far. Except for T-Mobile coverage is terrible while I'm at my job.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Eiad Ajam:
Guys did they fix the scrolling ? is it smooth now ?
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] crixley:
No, not really any better honestly. Still choppy if you scroll with your finger on the screen. Flash LOS if you want smooth scrolling.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Eiad Ajam:
I guess its easier to sell this phone

Thanks.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] martirw:
My pH 1 has no real scrolling "issue' on 8.1
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] 12paq:
They added this to Developer Settings.

But, I've never had jitter scrolling issues, so I didn't mess with it much.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Skripka:
Yup...if your car has a flat tire, might as well junk it?
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] crixley:
Honestly switching to LOS fixed 90% of the issue for me. I'm curious what the difference is between stock and custom on that front. Is it governor related? I'd really like to know.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] cherrydha:
On Sprint with device from Sprint. Still no OTA.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] rashaunny:
What is l o s is that the best custom ROM to use over aosip or lineage? I am I'm Sprint 8.1 beta and I'm not received a notification for 8.1 release
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] crixley:
LOS = lineage :)
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Skripka:
Differences everywhere, in basically everything.

LineageOS is the spiritual successor to Ye Olde CyanogenMod--the pre-corporate CM before you ask. When founder Steve Kondik went all corporate trying to make money off the project he was the head of, and formed "Cyanogen Incorporated"....lots of people were salty about him standing on the shoulders of giants (like those who did lots of the work)....and proceeded to fork the FOSS Cyanogenmod to become LineageOS.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LineageOS
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] crixley:
I know all this. Been on Android since 2009. I'm asking how lineage manages to have scrolling that is so much smoother.

It is an interesting story though. I actually am working on a design for cyanogen inc right now at work :/
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] ~~Tito~~:
I had no idea that Lineage was the spiritual successor of Cyanagon mod.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Zargone:
All things considered, there is not as much chatter here as I expected. Hope this means there are no major ahh S*** issues. I will jump soon.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] jake5253:
I have no official informations on this, so purely observational, but from where I'm at it definitely seems like there's been some tweaking related to radio. I live in a very rural area... We've only had LTE service here for about 3 or 4 years, if that means anything lol. Anyways, before 8.1 Official I would get 900KB/s - 1.2MB/s downloads. After 8.1 Official, I'm getting steady 1.7 MB/s download speeds with peaks hitting 2MB/s.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Jostian:
was also hesitant as things were rock solid on 7.1.1 for me, I made the jump 2 days ago, and all is well, scrolling is smooth, phone definitely more responsive and snappy. Battery life is as good, or maybe a bit better, with normal use I have used 28%, phone has been unplugged for 26 hours, dropped from 82% to 54% which seems pretty decent. No complaints yet, just miss the option to not keep WiFi on during sleep, which has been removed in Oreo, no idea why?
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] NaterTots:
It was moved. It's in settings, security & location, location, scanning.

It also gives you the option to turn off Bluetooth scanning there.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Jostian:
nope, not talking about scanning, scanning is just looking for open networks, I'm talking about the setting that allows WiFi to turn off when phone is asleep, then when you activate phone again it restarts Wifi, in Oreo Wifi is permanently on, only way to turn it off is to disable WiFi, I liked the option where WiFi turned off when phone went to 'sleep', there were 3 options: Keep WiFi on when phones goes to sleep (Always, only when charging, Never), its this setting that I miss.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] jake5253:
I found this but I did not test it. Give it a try and let us know if it still works? https://www.androidpolice.com/2017/10/24/google-inexplicably-removed-keep-wifi-sleep-toggle-pixel-2/#1

Reader Cameron joined in with further clarification as to the different values you can set the WiFi sleep policy to and what they correspond to:

Keep WiFi on during sleep: Always = 2
Keep WiFi on during sleep: Only When Plugged In = 1
Keep WiFi on during sleep: Never = 0
So instead of "adb shell settings put global wifi_sleep_policy 2" you can replace the 2 with 0 or 1 to get the different settings.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Jostian:
Will give it a try and see, thanks :)
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Caltinpla:
I started noticing that as well...:good:
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] dmeeks72:
I have not noticed any real changes either in battery life (really good) or signal (weak in my home and other certain indoor locations). I am having major new issues with the game I play.

It is Middle Earth: Shadow of War. In both the 8.0 and 8.1 beta, I had no issues with the game. Since the update, some buttons at the bottom of the screen are unresponsive. It is usually the bottom center button that I need to work so I can start missions and battles.

Any ideas on a setting I can try? I have already went into Developer Settings and toggled the Grip rejection switch as well as tried to adjust the touch sensitivity. Nothing worked.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Eiad Ajam:
Its not as simple as flat tire

It is as your car transition system ;)
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Gov.Robbed:
Anybody else notice it is missing LTE+ on the network icon. Did they remove it? I had it on 7.1.1 but not there now.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] S. Prime:
You have to pull down the shade and see LTE+. Good catch, I had not noticed.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Gov.Robbed:
Thx for the info will check when I know am in a + area.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] NaterTots:
Mine still shows LTE+ in the status bar. I did a factory reset after updating though.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Gov.Robbed:
Maybe I will do that to see if that works. Also have noticed that it's seems real slow even using lte. :confused:
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] S. Prime:
Okay, I restarted in safe mode (Press power button and long press power off for prompt to start in safe mode) and after restart from safe mode LTE+ showed up.View attachment 4449895
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Gov.Robbed:
Still not showing after doing Factory reset and what you suggested. Guess I will give it a couple of days ,then go see my local sprint tech xperts.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] S. Prime:
My LTE+ disappeared and It is not significant with me that LTE+ shows or not since my service is terrible, but I did notice that if you disable WiFi then LTE+ shows on the home screen. Go figure.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Gov.Robbed:
Yeah me thinks this still a work in progress. :confused:
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] NaterTots:
I'm on T Mobile. Weird that your status bar showed it but doesn't after the update.

Are you using a theme or anything?
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] chk27:
Has the full (non ota) image with partitions been published somewhere?
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Gov.Robbed:
Yes I am, but just to make sure. I cleared the defaults and went to the native launcher and rebooted. No joy!

Here's another issue, since the upgrade if I turn off my wifi I have a heck of a time getting re-connected. Before never had an issue. Have factory rest it twice, have reset the networks several times and also used the SCRTN code *#*#72786#*#* to no avail. Thx for everyone's assistance. If you have anymore suggestions, I am up for it. Prob will take it into the repair center let them have a look.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Zargone:
I have been battling this also. Partial fix: new activated SIM install in VERY strong LTE location with WIFi OFF! But it will not fall back to 3G
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Caltinpla:
I got a new OTA update for April just now.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Caltinpla:
Essential updated both kernel and radio baseband this time.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Skripka:
Baseband was not updated according to version number. 2.0c4-M2.0.0 is the same as the last baseband. Same for kernel, 4.4.120 was the same as Oreo final.

Of course, only way to know for certain is to compare hashsums of the baseband/boot.img files.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Caltinpla:
Look at my screenshots again. They have been updated. Did you update your phone?
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Skripka:
Oh, derp, clicked the wrong screencap twice. NVM. :silly:
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] collller:
how about new update with May security updated? build with ..166 at the end. are there some particular changes worth mentioning?

especially the wifi and lte signal any change? i have the feeling essential has the worst radio ever.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Ascertion:
No changes here.

Has anyone tried one of these?

http://www.eholster.com/ebbalnylforp.html

It looks like the "Regular" or "With Attachment" sizes will fit the Athena... What do you all think?

EDIT:

This page LISTS the X7500/X7501 as fitting in the "Regular" pouch:

http://www.eholster.com/virfitroom.html#pda

The price looks reasonable and you can get it in leather or ballistic nylon.

This case is "temporarily out of stock" and I am waiting on a return call from the maker.

Hi,

Any news if our device will get Android Oreo and if yes, by when?

I've read somewhere that in order for any manufacter to use Android on their device's, Google requires them to update at least twice the Android version of each released device -- is this correct? We got Nougat and if this is true, we should also get Oreo...

Thanks.

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brian D:
Hi, I was searching around XDA and saw an upgrade to 5.1 for my Moto G XT-1045. I performed the upgrade but also needed to upgrade the bootloader due to screen flicker. So I did that. The upgrade worked but I just did not like the look or feel of 5.1 on my Moto G. I did a recovery with TWRP, but now I have the screen flicker on 4.4.4 due to having Bootloader 41.1a. I would like to go back to the OEM bootloader 41.10 which I have on my computer. But I keep getting a fail from fastboot. The phone will not allow me to downgrade the bootloader.

Has anyone successfully reinstalled an older bootloader? I know it is dangerous to be doing this but I feel I have the correct level of experience loading via fastboot.

If you know of a way to do this I would greatly appreciate the instructions.

Thanks in advance.

I'm interested to this phone but i'm little worried about the support now that HTC has been sold to Google..how does this affect u11? Do you have regular update by now? Since this is a top phone and is still pretty expansive i don't want to waste my (few ?) money
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] shivadow:
Google doesn't own htc and never will. They have invested in htc in relation to the Google pixel series.

The U11 is the best phone out there until the u12 comes along. Well worth the investment if you pay the right price. 8.0 is the latest android for it.

[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] Dajackel12:
Hi,

New to the forum, I've had my S9 plus (UK) for a few days now but I'm having issues with the weather apps.

BBC weather does not work at all, as soon as it's launched it closes and it shows an error message.

AccuWeather seems to work but the widgets are not working for it. I normally have an widget on my home screen but it as soon as I put the widget on it just freezes and shows the same error.

Are there any issues or any solutions to this?

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] tim84us:
seems maybe like permissions problems - if you dont allow permission to each app to track your location - they will not work - id go in the app management and check permissions for each app
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] Dajackel12:
Thanks mate!

It was a permissions issue on both apps, had to allow permissions to location and clear cache and they started working.

Its about strange as soon as I installed the BBC weather app and opened it, it would crash, I thought the app would automatically request permission but didn't get to that stage. Had to manually allow permissions in the app settings.

Thanks again mate, really appreciate it. Hopefully this will help other people.

[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] bmw633:
Hi,

I know it has been a while since anyone posted on this thread, so I thought I would ask for an opinion. I have a MT2-L03 HAM2 phone that has Android 5.1 installed in it, unlocked, but am wondering is it worth the trouble to flash CM13 to it?

The phone works, but does slow down if I am on the road, running Google Maps, Pandora, and TORQUE. I know it is light on RAM, but if it would run these without it bogging down or crashing, that would be great.

I have read that CM13 is a dead end, so am a little concerned I might have problems in the future.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] Wmateria:
You should install the Lineage 14.1 and see.

Hi guys,

With the many available overclocking tools available, I noticed that quite a lot of people like to leave their phones on 240mgh, why is this so?

Ive done 264mgh using Omapclock and its been very stable.

Im currently using Batterystatus for overclocking, and Ive done 319mgh... way cool! The camera has no more lag time! :) However, 319mgh proved to be a bit unstable and I almost thought I got a bricked phone after...

anyway, Ive set my Batterystatus at 260 mgh and its been quite stable.

How about you guys, what top speed have you tried, and which one seems to be "stable" enough for daily use, and what overclocker did/do you use for this? Thanks
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] audiofish:
I regularly use my Wizard at 273MHz and it's completely stable.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] motortrend:
Mine is overclocked at 299mhz now with batterystatus. Fast as hell. I tried one step up but it locked on boot up and had to do a hard boot.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Deleted member 804010:
Mine is set at 260, stable - no issues
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] webmiester:
Wow! 299 sounds impressive. How long have you been at it? Are you on WM6.1?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] S.V.I:
for those overclocking to close to 300mhz with Battery Status: What is your temperature like?

I leave mine at 195 with cpu scaler to keep my battery lasting a little while longer.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] nothin:
273 is 95% stable for me.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] starkwong:
By Previous Wizard is only stable at 247MHz, any value higher than that will cause automatic reboot when a call is arrived.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] open_source:
is the energy consuption much higher when overclocking?

cauze i'm not sure if i dare to loose too much precious standby/tel time.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] jbbruce:
what are the possible ill effects of overclocking your wizard to say 221mhz? I know battery drain is likely, but how much and what else could go wrong?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] motortrend:
It doesn't seem to change the temperature too much. But it probably raises it on average a 1 degree or 2. WiFi on the other hand increases the temperature dramatically especially if i hold it in my hand for more then 15 minutes.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] motortrend:
It's WM6. It's been at 299 for about 1.5 months now. I set batterystatus to bring it back to 195 when in suspend(off) mode and back up to 299 when it's awake. As far as battery drain I'm not too sure. Batterystatus saw a peak of 3000mw with everthing on. Not sure how accurate that is.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] wyzepro:
Great Topic!

I used to use omap and batterystatus as well and keep my device at 264 and it was very stable but the roms I were using were such battery hogs...now I'm using 11.0.1.1 wwe and it's the most stable rom I've used so far....battery life is very good and so I've held off overclocking because so far it's really not slow and I dont know if overclocking will effect battery life....I'm now curious based on this thread and will run a week long test using batterystatus and post my results on friday with what ever settings I used and check to see if others have done the same so we can learn where we can comfortably overclock our devices.....
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] SeanFromSoCal:
I've ran at 299mhz using BatteryStatus for at least 6 months now. Seems very stable at this speed. Although I do have the occasional soft resets which are most likely from software glitches, memory leaks and WM6.1 incompatibilities. I can also underclock as low as 95mhz and seems stable. No one has ever mentioned to me about not getting their SMS or phone calls.

The temp is reasonable at 77deg F just out of idle and around 88deg F when I'm playing a game. My battery usage seems pretty reasonable. I've always overclocked so don't have anything to compare it to. I can play games for 2-3 hours, make a couple minutes worth of phone calls throughout the day, about 20 SMSs, a quick session or two of Wifi to check emails...and still have about 30-40% remaining.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] whatledog:
You know, I clock at 252 with omap, but when I installed batterystatus, it read at 270, even though omap still said 252. I'm confused... which is correct? and why the difference? I've since uninstalled b-status:confused:
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dole_95:

You don't have to worry about killing the battery during standby because batterystatus goes back to normal when in standby mode.

[P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cyber3K:
Hello,

I was enjoying my P8 Lite (ALE-L21) for around 2 years without real problems, but now I am fighting with some strange things. SoT value is really various, sometimes phone can't handle more than 1,5h, and sometimes it reaches 3-3,5h SoT. At the moment, in battery drain info I can see that Screen usage is staying around 70-75%. (90% of time I am using min. brightness) Two months ago, before hard reset, I had same problem and it seemed to be fixed, but now I can see different situation. The last but not least problem is phone beeing sometimes really freezy, I have massive lags e.g. keyboard reaction problems with freezes, websites lags while surfing and switching cards, apps slow opening. I am really confused now what could help me, so I hope for your help guys. Maybe I should try one of customroms or mods (didn't make that before)?
