[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Alexandre-P:
Not sure to understand what you mean by "worth it" -- it has the latest Android patches, so it's always a good idea to keep your system up to date. It's still OxygenOS; if you like it' there is not much of a difference with previous releases.

(Must say, though, that I do encounter some Bluetooth kwerks with hand-free system in my car [Mazda 2012] that I never had in OOS 5.0.4 and previous versions. The phone does connect to the Bluetooth system, no issue playing music [and skipping songs works], and I can answer calls without problem... but I can't place a new call from my hand-free system -- I have to grab the phone and dial from it. Weird.)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] modaifallah:
Hello XDA S7 users :D

So I was hoping for a performance change in Oreo but it's just the same nougat.

We have 4 GB ram and we don't need virtual compressed swap partition in RAM. This was useful in Old android days when devices had 1 Gb ram and that stuff, and I wanted to go swapless. I found this by simple Googling. It's a simple, small magisk module that removes the swap partition from RAM making it all available for the applications. Also to make use from Swap as on Linux desktops Swap should be 2X the size of the ram and not compressed as compression takes from the CPU power.. but this is not the case here, it is actually part of the RAM lol, and it's compressed

By installing the module you

- make all RAM available to the user and apps without virtual disks inside RAM

- preserve CPU as all the time the cpu is compressing and decompressing data to and from the Swap partition. Preserving the CPU gives you a performance boost as more CPU cycles are now available for user.

- Preserves battery by using less CPU power.

This was evident when I used it on the latest Oreo leak ERD2 and now my battery lasts +24 hours and the phone is very fuc*** faster. Apps open instantly and multitasking is way better 'comparable to iPhone' . I even increased animation factor as with default value animations were so fast

The module zip in the devs thread, download and flash in Magisk then reboot.

This module was developed by the talented dev [MENTION=2682748]EarlyMon[/MENTION] if this helped consider donating to him, check his thread: https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/module-swap-torpedo-run-faster-reliably-t3766883

My setup:

Rom: [OREO][SE9][ERCB][01/04/2018] Galaxy S7 Edge - Oreo DevBase

Using the rom's kernel with Magisk 16.0 and Viper4android. Didn't try with Xposed.

My battery usage is attached too.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] pingufanpoy:
Following up frpm previous post.

There are definitely issues the longer you use it.

Seems like the more times you restart the heavier the stutter.

Seems like the zram is necessary because it is taxing on the processor.

My home key and power button disabled themselves after about 2 minutes after booting and even booted into download mode by itself until i uninstalled the module.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] EarlyMon:
Too bad for those of you experiencing trouble, I wish it weren't so. :(

Zram (or Samsung's vnswap) is MORE taxing on the processor, not less.

But the additional swap does allow more bloat to be crowded into ram while swapping out essential functions for fast reloading. (Why anyone would build an Android where essential functions COULD be unloaded escapes me but it is what it is.)

There are no lingering effects to the module and it runs one functional command at startup - nothing extra runs after boot, less runs. The Swap Torpedo isn't a new tactic, just a new method that takes advantage of the systemless modification for startup thanks to Magisk.

Sorry to those that are having problems with it - thanks for trying it, and definitely uninstall it. Life is too short for a broken phone!

Also consider trying it with your next update, rom, or phone. The majority of Samsung user feedback has been overwhelmingly positive. :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] modaifallah:
I tried with new S9 rom, it works best when I made internal storage swap, I have totally uncompressed 4 GB ram thanks to your module and 2 GB uncompressed swap on internel flash memory. I still find it a good move and it worked flawlessly with my other HTC phone.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Mort015:
Does i need the module?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Hamzakovsky:
Sorry to disappoint you with my comment:

1st - 24 hours you are getting is probably because you don't use your phone at all ! same usage with a good Kernel should get you 2 days at least.

2nd - Samsung galaxy S7 Edge does not need any Ram management I mean come on it's a 4Go, there is a Ram cleaning tool already included in Device maintenance.

finally - After trying this module all I got was : performance decreased and weird UI behavior.

Do you really want a great battery and performance? go and try Devbase ROM + MoroKernel and you'll thank me later ;)
[General Questions and Answers] srkraidu:
Hi All,

My ZE550KL has booted to Fastboot ROM mode and is not coming out of it.

My zenfone 2 laser with the following minimal config is given

Model Number: ASUS_Z00LD

Software information: WW_1.16.40.763_20151201 initially, later different patches available in the

HelpDesk of Asus site, but to no use.

I've applied Factory Data Reset option, Hard reset, there is no option to go for the safe mode.

What do you guys think that may fix the issue?

Thanks in advance.
[General Questions and Answers] C0r3xMoon:
Have you tried reinstalling the original rom?

As you said in the other post of the WiFi problem and now this ... well, it seems that your device may be defective :(, it would be advisable to contact a technical service
[General Questions and Answers] srkraidu:
Hard to say whether the original ROM was applied, as the device was able to boot on pressing the power button and volume down, the recovery mode and all the ROMs were applied one by one, lest it could bring to normal.

This device is different from the one with wifi device issue.
[XV6700, PPC-6700 General] tatotato:
For about a year I have looked for a way to read and write NAM data from HTC CDMA phones.

Today I finished my search and have put together a kit for doing the above stuff, at least for the Apache/6700. It includes all the drivers and a very nice program to hack around with your phone (CDMA Workshop).

You guys have helped me out SO much in the past, so I'd like to give something back.

So without further ado, here are the instructions.

1. Remove all drivers from previous attempts to get it working (if any) then download the attachment and uncompress to an empty folder.

2. In ActiveSync, go File -> Connection Settings and uncheck the box labelled "Allow USB connections".

3. On your phone, go Start -> Programs -> File Explorer and browse to the Windows folder.

4. Scroll down until you find a program called DMrouter. Open it and click start.

5. Plug your Apache into cradle/cable.

6. The add new hardware wizard will come up. Do not allow it to connect to windows update. Click next and select "Install the drivers from a specific location" and browse to the drivers folder inside wherever you put the ESNkit.

7. If all goes well, another add new hardware wizard will come up. Repeat the exact same process as step 6.

8. On your computer, go Start -> Control Panel -> System -> Device Manager -> View -> Devices by Connection. Then play around until you see under a USB Root hub a USB composite device with two devices in its sub-tree. One of them will have a COM port number e.g. COM6. Write this down.

9. Go into the ESNkit folder and run cdma_wshop_loader. The password is ogmisthebest

10. CDMA workshop should load. Select port you wrote down e.g. COM6, click Connect, click Read, and you're in!

How to read SPC (Greetz to rafaelc, this is for you :))

After step 10, go to the Security tab, and under the SPC section, select Universal, EFS Method in the listbox.

Click read.

Click OK in the dialog.

There will be a dialog pop up with a whole lot of dots and numbers. The first 6 Numbers after the dots end are your SPC.

If you want to change NAM data with this SPC, type it into the box and click SPC then click Send and go to the NAM tab, click read, and hack away!

How to change ESN (Proof of concept :), changing to an actual ESN is illegal pretty much everywhere)

After step 10, go to the Security tab, and under the ESN section, select Universal, EFS Method in the listbox.

MAKE SURE YOU WRITE DOWN YOUR CURRENT ESN JUST IN CASE.

Click Read.

It will show your ESN!

To change, type in your new ESN and click write.

Done!

Have fun guys!!

[XV6700, PPC-6700 General] tatotato:

I think it may be detecting the loader as a virus because of the way it fiddles with the RAM. Just a guess though. Note the _probably_ a variant. It does honestly work fine.

I have a ctl-09 (c782) ee UK phone.

As usual slow updates in UK. Currently at Firmware b131.

I think European models ctl-29 (c432) are on at least firmware b156 plus additional fixes.

It seem UK phone operators need to ensure the firmware is secure and working properly by testing it more than huawei or google which seems odd. This may involve delaying implementation of Google android firmware security updates to strangely ensure our phones are somehow more secure. If I'm getting this wrong please explain it to me.

[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] walkerx:
there is no need for them to test the updates before allowing them to be released as if you purchased a proper sim-free unlocked device the updates come from the manufacturer and don't cause problems on the network.

OnePlus are already deploying Android 9 and it's unknown when/if we will see this on our branded uk phones

I've already started looking at how much I can sell this phone for. Shame really, cos there are many many things I love about it.
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] walkerx:
the trade-in value is so poor on these phones - hopefully you can sell privately and get something worthwhile back
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] adamelphick:
Unfortunately the C782 brands itself to the first SIM inserted - therefore the networks will test prior to any firmware update - presumably this was an agreement with the networks so you got their branded apps when you bought from them. Remember in the UK the networks subsidise the phones somewhat, and therefore feel they want some kind of payback for this. If you bought a non 782 dual SIM model - not from a network provider - you wont have this issue.
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] walkerx:
yep and this is why best not to buy sim-free from the likes of CPW as they supply the C782 version even if bought without a contract, so gets locked - i have this same issue with my Mate 10 Pro which wasn't purchased as sim-free unlocked non-network provided and it got rebranded by the first sim inserted (three).
