[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Veestaai:
Recently I installed greenify along with xposed. I set it up and put some apps for hibernation. As greenify was discovering more apps running in the background, I added them to the hibernation list. At first it did improve the standby drain noticeably. With time(the list of backgroud apps increased), I saw that the phone was getting heated up and was losing much of the battery in a short duration of time. After that I removed greenify and my battery was back to normal(nothing cleared including cache etc). So the idea here is greenify also takes up resources to close background apps. Greenify is a better version of Android's Aggressive dose. I also want to mention that my battery life is certainly better than before(when Aggressive dose was enabled). Does this answer your question?
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] randomA:
Makes sense.

I'll see whether the built in aggressive doze can indeed be more problem than solution here then.

So far i havent seen other reports.

Nothing you are going to be able to do.

Verizon Droid Turbo 2 never got bootloader unlocked and rooted. The sibling Moto X Force, yes through the bootloader unlock code from Motorola.

All the dev work in this forum is for the Moto X Force.

Both are "Kinzie" (same phone series) but the Verizon branded one is totally locked down, thanks to control freak Verizon.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] :
So, about a year ago, a researcher named Frederic Basse released a PoC for SVE-2016-7930. I think this might be the key to finally unlocking or flashing unsupported software on the Verizon Galaxy S3 with the KK bootloader. It uses a buffer overflow in the T-Flash (SD card flash) function, and a PoC exists for the AT&T Galaxy S5. I have no idea on how I would do it as I am not a developer, but could any of you other talented people try it? I have an old VZW S3 laying around to test out. I'm assuming this exploit is applicable to us because we have the T-Flash function. Thanks!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Delgoth:
I was actually just looking at that PDF yesterday and then I found this thread today. I was looking into it for a newer device that sadly cannot be downgraded that far anymore. But even the Verizon S3 does support at least limited SD Boot support or we wouldn't be able to debrick a lot of things. But I feel like, depending on the secure boot setup, we might not be able to do a full boot from SD. But I am interested in this idea as well. I have 2 Verizon S3's.

[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] zed'sded_bb:
Howdy!

I believe Android already have built-in capability to encrypt your phone/data. There are quite a few easy to follow examples on the net. Just try googling some. I just can't post any links yet.

Now, I'm definitely not an expert on Android platform. I'm very new to the system myself. So I would love to know about it more.

I have heard that Nine Folders is also good, but don't quote me on that. Will let you know if I get more info about it.

I know this thread is a little old but if anyone is still interested you can access the built in android encryption stuff using nova launcher.

[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] user4001:
Wait, what? Didn't realise it wasn't encrypted, I thought that was kind of standard now.
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] user4001:
So I went ahead and tried this. After you press that encrypt phone it prompts you for pin. After that another screen with encrypt phone button that does nothing when pressed :rolleyes:

The phone is definitely not encrypted. Done the alarm test - phone turns itself on when powered off in time to ring the alarm. This is not possible on an encrypted phone with pin.
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] mangusZen:
The phone, or better, the data partition is encrypted, when you set pin or a pattern.

Otherwise we would not become crazy with twrp nowadays.
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] user4001:
Is there still sensitive data that is unencrypted and at risk, say if it gets stolen etc?

Genuine question, from my googling it seems to not be obvious. When you get to the "Encrypt Phone" menu in Android Settings it prompts you to encrypt the phone (like it isn't already), but when pressed nothing happens.

---------- Post added at 07:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:50 PM ----------

The same "Encrypt Phone" massage that comes up (stock Android prompt as far as I know) says that after you encrypt phone the alarm will not work when phone is powered off.

Tried it and the phone wakes and alarm goes off when phone is shut down.
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] mangusZen:
All sensitive data are in data partition and it's encrypted. Many android settings are messed up in emui, but device will be encrypted if you set a pin or sequence.

If alarm works, good to know
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] patv96:
You can also just use activity launcher which is only a few KB and does the same job.

Now with this out there I launched the device encryption activity and put my lockscreen pin in and get to the encrypt phone button and after pressing it the back arrow at the top of my screen stops functioning, the phone doesn't start encrypting or anything and I can exit to the previous screen via the return gestures.

Any tips?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
You don't make a root exploit. You find it by testing different times and vulnerabilities in the system. Root exploits are holes in the OS security.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] gtmaster303:
Hello all

Apologies if this question seems stupidly obvious but I don't want to make the same mistake twice... I bought an S7 for T-Mobile and I think it's not supported by LineageOS just yet because it has a locked bootloader.

Does the Galaxy S6 Edge (SM-G925T) have LineageOS Official support? I see that there are roms currently being built under zeroltexx, but not sure if the T-Mobile model falls in that as well.

Thanks for your input

Hi, I am total registry noob so I need a help with this.

I want to flash a new rom that dont have operator settings(wap,mms,internet) for orange sk, but the rom I am using now has that.

So the question is: is it posible to backup some registry from this rom and restore it in the new one? If yes, does anybody know what registry I need to backup?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] zippyioa:
I have never done the settings via registry... I always enter them myself.

This works fine as long as you know what they are. I jsut googled "orange GPRS internet settings sk" and got this:

http://windowsmobilesk.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!2C19B58AE653A521!116.entry

It would be worth checking that these match what you have already before you flash a new rom though....

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Mikulec:
Thanks a lot,

I sorted this problem by copying file: provizion.zip from the older rom(that has the settings) to the new one(that doesnt have the settings). And it worked.:D

Apologies if this question seems stupidly obvious but I want to make sure before I commit to this phone... I bought an S7 for T-Mobile and I think it's not supported by LineageOS just yet because it has a locked bootloader

I can see builds are being made for the herolte (S7), but I don't think the T-Mobile model falls into the unified builds as it runs a Snapdragon 820, rather than the Exynos 8890

So currently, the T-Mobile S7 IS NOT supported by LineageOS?

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] syl0n:
Xiaomi have released Redmi Note 5 in Taiwan with more LTE band support than global variant.

TW Specs from : http://www.mi.com/tw/redmi-note-5/specs/

Taiwan model:

4G:FDD-LTE B1/B2/B3/B4/B5/B7/B8/B20/B28
TDD-LTE B38/B40

Global model:

4G: FDD-LTE B1/B3/B4/B5/B7/B8/B20
TDD-LTE B38/B40

Many markets worldwide apart from Taiwan make use of the extra B28 (700Mhz) - Australia, New Zealand, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Panama, Japan, France. There are probably more I have left out. Its basically our equivalent of B20 which gives us better rural coverage and better building penetration.

I have looked everywhere including Aliexpress and they aren't selling this model. Can anyone find it anywhere other than Xiaomi Taiwan site?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] letschky:
I have read:

This Band 28(700Mhz) is scheduled to begin in 2020 for mobile (5G broadband services)
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] syl0n:
That might be true in your country, its been in other places for years. Since 2014 in Australia. I think its delayed in Europe due to terrestrial TV using that frequency, ours was switched off years ago.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] letschky:
ok,thanks for the info
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] dustmalik:
It is also used in Nigeria by a network known as Glo. LTE band 28(700) travels very far and has better in-building penetration than most LTE bands.

By the way, I've also checked Aliexpress for the variant of redmi note 5 that support band 28, and it's not available yet. I don't think I can wait for it any longer. I'll have to settle for the Global variant.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] celoxocis:
where did you get the band list for the Global version from? pdadb so far has always been accurate on the supported bands and it lists Band 28 as included for the Global version:

[MENTION=2494638]celoxocis[/MENTION] Seems to differ from this one https://www.kimovil.com/en/where-to-buy-xiaomi-redmi-note-5 Doesn't list B28
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] celoxocis:
[MENTION=1743042]lukesan[/MENTION]

kimovil has been wrong in the past.

I used to import US version phones and always used pdadb for proper (required) bands. Where all other sites would list missing bands pdadb would list all complete bands. So I see pdadb as trustworthy and professional sites who check the phones specifications for accuracy.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] lukesan:
[MENTION=2494638]celoxocis[/MENTION] https://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=9120#hong-kong,*,* another one that doesn't show B28 BUT the Taiwan version shows B28

This is all getting confusing. On all Aliexpress sellers I don't see B28, only the very much used B20 in Europe. Looking for the Taiwan version on Aliexpress seems to not show anything.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] celoxocis:
[MENTION=1743042]lukesan[/MENTION]

gsmarena never lists proper bands. it misses half the bands of my axon 7 us version (pdadb lists the proper bands). never go to gsmarena to check for bands. aliexpress only sells Chinese versions with global ROM anyway. don't go there or they will trick you to buy one of those.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] syl0n:

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] GuestX01003:
I bought a couple of this guy from Taiwan ebay https://www.ebay.com/itm/123151713017 so I can confirm that the seller is good. Good communication answered all my questions, and he packaged everything securely inside a DHL box. The boxes inside were still shrink wrapped as I expect they would come from Xiaomi.

It may be a bit overpriced though as said here for some reason nobody else is putting the Taiwanese version up.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] purple.epod:
This Amazon.ca listing has the RN5 with Band 28. Both resellers (Maple Mountain Imports and JP Mobiles CA) sell the same version of the phone, and fulfilment is by Amazon.

In France, some operator already use B28, since more than 1 year ago
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] Bolumstar:
It is for this same reason (LTE band 28) that I wanted to buy redmi note 5 special edition. Now there is a redmi note 5 with LTE band 28 that nobody knows where to buy it from. It's a pity Xiaomi doesn't care to make it popular.

In Nigeria (the most populus country in Africa) that LTE band 28 is in hot demand used by GSM network called globacom.

I want to get that but might have to settle for global or China redmi note 5 as I have already purchased MiFi modem with LTE band 28.

I'M still in love with my old Samsung note 4 screen and camera, I don't know if redmi note 5 screen will be close to it but at some point I have to upgrade.

This Taiwanese version has also been released in Mexico, and possibly in Chile and Bolivia. I bought mine in Mercadolivre (auction-site-turned-marketplace just like eBay), from someone who imported it from Mexico to Brazil. If you have some sort of communication channel to a seller, you can ask them directly for the model number printed on the back side of the box: the regular "Global" model is model M1803E7SG, while the Taiwanese/Mexican model with B28 support is M1803E7SH.
