[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] DurhamHusker:
It appears you've discovered the magic battery temperature cutoff that HTC has selected for the Pixel 2 ... and that seems to be around 35 or 36 degrees.

For every 10 C rise in temperature, battery degradation doubles by almost every measurable metric. It doesn't surprise me that at around 35 C your phone appears to limit the charge current ... seemingly to avoid making the battery any hotter. Taking the temperature higher for the charge cycle (or for any other reason) will degrade the battery over time. Deep discharges toward zero also reduce the life of a battery. (Keeping it at 50% or higher is recommended for lithium-ion rechargeable batteries.)

If you can cool the phone down to 25 C before starting to charge, I'd be willing to bet that it will charge at the higher rate for longer. Maybe put a small fan on the phone or set it in front of an A/C vent while it charges and see what happens then.
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] Charkatak:
That is interesting as I have had different phones which got even warmer than Pixel 2, but still charged at a good rate. I do know that after 80% of charge of so, the charge rate does go down, which isn't a surprise to me. I just picked up my phone, after it was sitting idle for few hours and see that battery/phone temp is 25 C. I will make sure to start charging phone at a low temperature and see if it will keep the fast charge rate longer.

What you mentioned about the "keeping battery at 50% or so). Did you mean that when battery goes down to 50 or so %, charge it? I usually run battery until about 30 or so % before charging it.
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] DurhamHusker:
Yes, charging it when it gets to around 50%, based on a number of studies, seems to be the way to go.

Deep discharges and hot temperatures are enemies of battery life for today's lithium-ion cells.
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] Charkatak:
I have tried just now to start charging the phone when it is 23 C, but still get the same result. Could it be the June security patch?

Update: So the phone charged by rate of 1370mA from 22% to 100% in 1h 25m. So going from 0 to 100% should take ~1h 45m? Can anyone confirm how long it takes to charge Pixel 2 using original charger?
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] WibblyW:
Go a reference to these studies?

This app vendor has seen a lot and isn't convinced discharging to low values has much material effect on battery service life. Charging to high levels does, however. Interesting read I think... with commentry on the often quoted Battery University pages. I agree that heat isn't good whatever.

https://accubattery.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/212988989-About-the-Battery-University-article
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] DurhamHusker:
I can't point to anything peer reviewed or funded by the NSF ... so maybe 'studies' is the wrong word.

I've seen the Battery University articles and they've seemed believable to me. It's possible they're flawed. I've also seen articles from these guys - https://www.mpoweruk.com/life.htm ... and other tech writers who corroborate such claims. I've also seen the claims about the high level charging you're pointing to and some who suggest you should keep your battery between 50% and 85% all the time to get the most out of it.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] cstrife999:
So I have a Google Store Pixel 2 XL and am running stock. I use Walmart Family Mobile (which runs through T-Mobile) and recently I have had issues where the phone no longer can make or get calls.

I don't really get notified on this and I am on Wifi most of the time. Then I get random voicemails. I am about to try and just flash the most recent image however I have to ask a dumb question. I see an image for T-Mobile and one for the rest. Family Mobile does indeed run off T-Mobile but is that just for carrier specific or would that be the one I flash?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] cstrife999:
Nevermind I'm an idiot. Just needed to check build before I reflash. Well anyway anyone else have these calls issues?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Badger50:
I would use the T-Mobile image and see what you get. If that doesn't help your situation, then I'd flash the radio from the other image. Which you can find here :good: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=746163614322268810

[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] vwite:
So I was looking for an app to make the top radius match the bottom radius on the corners while using the option of hiding the notch (I already have one different working app for that now). Someone suggested a very shady link to download an apk but since I'm desperate and dumb I just downloaded and installed it. However, after installation there was only a "done" button but "open" button was greyed out, there was no new app on app drawer and there was no new app in application list in settings. I started getting worried that I had just installed some bitcoin mining software or another kind of malware.

I got even more worried because if I tapped on the apk again it was asking me if I wanted to UPDATE the app instead of if I wanted to install it so it was already installed and it had permissions to access gps, phone history, and read, modify and delete USB storage.

After a while during the day, my phone started doing random noises from the speakers like audio from ads but without opening any app, then later it started opening random chit on google chrome and that is not even my default browser (my default is samsung browser), it opened those very intrusive ads that tell you you have a virus and you cannot go back you have to close the whole tab or app it also opened some ads with sexual content a few times.

I always thought all free anti-virus app on the play store were completely useless and just bloating apps but I started installing a bunch, most didn't detect absolutely anything after the option "scan all apps" I tried kaspersky, avast, AVG, Norton, etc. then I installed this (it's called "hi security" so not known brand and I thought it was going to be the worse but after opening it was powered by "McAfee" so at least McAfee is known):

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ehawk.antivirus.applock.wifi

And it actually detected some malware after scanning all apps, there was an app with completely blank name on device administrators that I never gave permission to become device administrator as far as I remember, so I unchecked that app from admin and then the antivirus app was able to uninstall it.

After the virus cleaner uninstalled the app I haven't had any more issues with audios or ads opening on chrome. Do you think I'm safe now or could I still have some spyware?

I posted some screenshots showing everything.

I doubt that anyone wants the apk but if a developer wants it for reverse engineering or whatever reason I can post it the the name "MALWARE_do_NOT_install.apk" or something like that

[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] herecomesmaggi:
First of all dont trust any antivirus app except major companies like AVG, Avira etc. Always download from playstore. Don't give permission to browser to install app (unknown sources) in 8.1.0 u can do that.

Now scan all apps.. And remove them. Malwarebytes is best to remove hidden malware on any platform.

Good luck.

If u r ready to format and clean ur internal memory then, format ur handset from settings, download whole stock rom and flash it from recovery..

Regards.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] vwite:
Thanks, as I said on first post AVG and Avira were useless for this infection but both "Hi Security" and Malwarebytes premium were able to do the job
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] herecomesmaggi:
I mentioned Avira nd AVG as antivirus. Malwarebytes is best bro for malware infection. I m using it since 2009 for pc. Every time it does the job.

Also for ur round corner.. I suggest u search for "round R" a app found on xda in 2011 or 12, since then It does it job beautifully.

[MTCD Android Head Units General] andybh:
Sorry - this is my first post which I hope I'm putting in the right area.

I have an Erisin Android 8 unit designed for VW with the custom connector on the back - Installed today.

Most things seem to be working fine but when I open the drivers door (right) the on screen display shows the left door is open (and vice versa). I'm assuming this is because the vehicle is referring to the drivers side and passenger side which the head unit assumes to be in a LHD car.

Is there any way I can convince the head unit that the RIGHT door is open when I open the drivers door ?

Thanks,

Andy

[Moto Z2 Play  Questions & Answers] tyman4444:
Oops, I seem to have used an old account. I need to be able to post a link so lets use this one.

I was able to fix this issue by flashing the modem for a similar phone with ZUI, the XT1710-08 https://firmware.center/firmware/Motorola/Moto Z2 Play/Stock/XT1710-08/ . This seems to have gotten my modem to work again but the rom itself is locked to chinese and useless for my needs. Paired with a different rom it seems to all be good...
[Moto Z2 Play  Questions & Answers] KirMit:
Hi. Use this https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmwar...ubsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip

I flashed all using standard set of fastboot commands including modem flashing and erasing. You will boot in Chinese version, but still able to change a language to English in preferences menu (try to find a right menu by logos). It is still Android Nougat 7.1.1 with CH/EN only languages.

After that I flashed this https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmwar...ubsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip

But skip modem flashing and erasing. You will have multi language Android Oreo.

Enjoy.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] sandiegodude:
Hey guys, I have a few questions about gaging rev a speeds.

First off:

Which device to use?

I have noticed that the speakeasy test on my mogul with PIE consistently reports an average of 800kbs while the same speakeasy test on my laptop via wmwifirouter boasts 1.5 mbps

and more importantly, WHY does the laptop score higher than testing directly through the ppc?

Secondly:

Which test gives the most reliable results.

I have noticed that DSL reports seems to have significantly lower throughput results compared to mobilespeedtest.com or speakeasy. Which on is correct?

FWIW DSL reports are consistently half the speed of the other tests mentioned.

Thanks for your time fellas!!

Hello, first of all i am sorry for my english.

I wanted to do an update from my Cuoco92 to Lineage ( https://xdaforums.com/le-max-2/development/x82x-lineageos-15-1-oreo-leeco-le-max-2-t3771577 ) and i surely made something wrong because the phone was litteraly stuck.

So, i waited 1 hours... and nothing happened. Then, I decided to force the reset. Recovery told me that no rom was installed.

Then, i tried to install several roms from the website (cuoco, linegae, small eui...) but there are some issue :

- google play doesnot want to work at all.

- most of the time, the phone is saying something like "data corrupted. Put in it factory mode" and even when i reset my phone in factory mode, it is still telling me that.

Now, i am giving up because sideload said me "Error 7" each time i try to install something new.

I need your help. I beg you, i can give you with a steam game or something like that but i want to fix that...

Someone want to skype or i dont know?

Thank you!!

in TWRP please go to wipe > format data > yes.

[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] ThE_MarD:
Heyyo, please upgrade to the latest version of TWRP. 3.2.1-2. it has fixed ADB sideload where as older versions it is broken.

https://twrp.me/leeco/leecolemax2.html

Also, another option is to use ADB push which tbh I always prefer over sideload so that the full zip is on the device.

IE...

adb push NameOfFile.zip /sdcard/

That will copy that zip to the sdcard folder which is the root of the data partition so it can be easily deleted once you are fully booted into the ROM.

For Gapps? I recommend MindTheGapps arm64. It's fully compatible to LineageOS and Oreo ROMs in general where as OpenGapps for Oreo is still of beta quality.

Lastly, I recommend upgrading your device firmware. X820 30s is the latest stable but arguably 466D has a newer timestamp for the modem portion of the firmware so in theory it should have better cellular connectivity.

All links can be found in the LineageOS 15.1 for x2 thread.

Good luck!

Okay. This is an odd one for me. bought another axon 7 bc it was cheap. swapped in my old board and battery because it was charging and running really hot. (ive owned 4 axon 7 now, it was the hottest ever) so surgery went fine. upon booting, the touch screen, does not respond to touch. while within recovery (twrp by nfound) touchscreen works perfectly. i really dont know what to do to it. i have tried to restore all sorts of backups, but every one has the same issue. ive tried not including EFS and tried it included. if the screen wasnt working in TWRP, id question my hardware labor, but im kind of stumped. i keep trying to download B19 nougat edl, but the download keeps failing. (thanks tmobile and my in-laws wifi). my question is coming from a functional custom recovery is there a way to flash or restore stock recovery? i know i can EDL eventually, i was just wondering if there is an easier way?

EDL fails to complete using any of the EDL files i have tried so far using

Secondary question, is there any EDL thats works as a necessary starting point? i.e.- on moto devices, many firmwares were not backward flashable. ultimately, i just want to know if i can EDL Marshmallow or if that is even possible. i have attempted B15, B19, and B32 with no success.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Choose an username...:
you should be able to EDL any update without problems. Use EDL Tool, that one works even better than miflash.

What a mess. ? Maybe an EDL flash on the newer board would have fixed the thermal problems...

Try an IDM for downloading stuff. If the download fails you can simply resume it no problem. IDMs on Windows are crap, but this one works perfectly (on Android, that is):

Pretty much par for the course with me and Axon 7's. Simple op impossible. lol.

I just flashed b32 which Miflash says flashed successfully, yet as was the case after b15N and b2xN the splash screen pops up, the image of stock recovery flashes just for a sec, several red flashes, and power off.

It takes a try or two to get EDL mode after that. i guess tomorrow (left it at work on my desk) the phones original board is going back in. lol.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] kitcostantino:
So i swapped back to the board that came in the phone and touch works perfectly. that board was missing the pink paste on the back of the SOC. after having it run 115-125° F, i decided to swap the battery with my good one and add the pink gummy stuff too. on stock it got so hot it would freeze and shut down, and now bl unlocked on O RR, i have to undervolt -25 global to keep it stable. i did finally manage to get full EDLs to work, but the SOC just seems faulty or tweaked. i imagine it is just one that runs hotter. also, in swapping the screen back, i have concluded that the other board i had must have a connector issue for the touch display. i may try to resinstall it later. kinda tired of screwing with it for now. any input is appreciated. thanks

EDit:

hot board made cool by flashing back as far as i could go, but now it has no IMEI. lol.

UPDATE: finally figured out the b15 full edl i was using was what was killing the screen. flashed back to b20 and screen worked fine. now both phones do not have IMEIs, though. win some, lose some. lol
