[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] ShaMana999:
I'm getting an appalling battery life on my S9+

The device is a European version with the Exynos CPU, non-rooted (and i don't wish to do so as i do like using the Samsung security features that the device offers)

I've attached a screen grab which was taken right after waking up in the morning. During the night (around 7 hours of sleep) i've lost 14 percent from when i put it away

Any suggestions? I'm really in a loss for what to do :( other than rooting and modding

PS: Suggestions of the sort like: Turn off AOD or Turn off Sync or Turn off Mobile Data aren't really helpful. I know that these drain battery but the device has these features for a reason and the battery was mostly fine when i purchased it with them on.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] mtm1401:
I know you didn't want to hear it but AOD will be responsible for most of the drain, I lose < 1% per hour overnight with it off and about 2% with it on. Totally agree about the functionality but I just set my AOD on a timer so it isn't on overnight.

The android system drain isn't unreasonably high given the phone has spent a fair amount of time idle, but you could try is going apps > show system apps > android system > turn off background usage (doesn't break anything that im aware of but will turn back on when the phone is rebooted)

Other things to try is wipe the system cache and turn off wireless device scanning from the location menu
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] ShaMana999:
Seems I'll have to test it out. Never before noticed a huge drain from using AOD on my old s7 edge and it's a lovely lovely feature. The Android OS seemed a bit high to me but unsure to why
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] Ausboy 2011:
S9+exynos also here. No issues with batterylife for me
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] stoleriko:
I'm having the same problem. Around 16% lost at night. Maybe the last firmware update is to blame.

I did a clear/delete cache after the update
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] mtm1401:
That's because you've got power saver on you naughty chap
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] Galaxo60:
As someone pointed out, just disable background activity for Android System and that should do the trick.

I have been running with this option since launch with zero collateral effects; just remember to do this each time you reboot the phone.

;)
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] AdelinVerestiuc:
How do you do that?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] ShaMana999:
You go to Apps and after which Show System Apps - Android System - Battery

You'll see the option there. I tried it for me it did practically nothing. Battery drain for Android System combined with Android OS takes more than 25% according to the battery stats. With a messily 3 hours of screen time including in that an hour of gaming with a 2D freemium game.

[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] ikolbyi:
I'm new at this so please bear with me, detailed explanations are most helpful.

My end goal is to edit the "build.prod" file in the /vendors directory without rooting the phone.

What steps have I taken so far:

On the Huawei Mate 10 Pro:

* Enabled Developer Options and set the following

- OEM Unlocking = enable

- USB debugging = enable

- verify apps over USB = disable

* Installed Andorid SDK and upaded my $PATH in windows appropriately.

* From powershell:

adb devices (device is found)

adb reboot bootloader (this puts the phone in "FASTBOOT&RESCUE MODE")

fastboot boot c:\xxxxx\twrp-3.2.1-0-blanc.img

Downloading 'boot.img' OKAY [ 0.232s]

booting FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)

fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk c:\xxxxx\twrp-3.2.1-0-blanc.img

Sending 'recovery_ramdisk' (8622 KB) OKAY [ 0.195s]

Writing 'recovery_ramdisk' FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)

fastboot boot c:\xxxxx\twrp_bla_alp_0.7.img

Downloading 'boot.img' OKAY [ 0.548s]

booting FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)

fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk c:\xxxxx\twrp_bla_alp_0.7.img

Sending 'recovery_ramdisk' (23542 KB) OKAY [ 0.599s]

Writing 'recovery_ramdisk' FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)

This is where I obtained the two twrp files:

twrp.me/huawei/huaweimate10pro.html

mega.nz/#!Zhc3mboB!OpMvPzMUAGPehDiqihi_gu6LViEltVECSIR743-KgrI

What am I doing wrong? Detailed steps would be appreciated since I have a learning curve, thank you.

Check for all drivers and also is your bootloader unlocked cuz it says there remote: Command not allowed that probably means that something is probably blocking it on the phone side

[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] dennis96411:
Toggling OEM unlocking in developer options is not enough, as that simply enables the ability to unlock your bootloader within fastboot. You need to retrieve a bootloader unlock code either directly from Huawei or a third party. I believe there is a guide for it in the guides sub-forum.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] ikolbyi:
I did't need to download the tool but the second half the video answered my questions. I was able to obtain the 'key' from Huawei outlined in the video then in fastboot mode:

"adb oem unlock <the key from Huawei>"

And it unlocked my bootloader reformatting it. Now step 2 - editing the file.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] LLoTE:
And how will you edit it? You'll root the phone or?
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] ikolbyi:
Now that the boot loader is unlocked, I edited the /vendor/build.prop file using this method:

with phone in fastboot mode (from laptop computer connected to phone via USB , phone in developer mode)

adb reboot bootloader

Next step was to install TWRP:

fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk c:\xxxxx\twrp-3.2.1-0-blanc.img

fastboot reboot (immediately unplug phone from USB and hold down the high volume button until you see Huawei logo)

When in TWRP manually mount /vendor then reconnected device to USB connected to computer.

executed the following commands:

adb pull /vendor/build.prop C:\downloads\build.prop

/vendor/build.prop: 1 file pulled. 0.1 MB/s (4065 bytes in 0.026s)

adb push C:\downloads\build.prop /vendor/build.prop

C:\downloads\build.prop: 1 file pushed. 0.2 MB/s (4097 bytes in 0.018s)

it worked. I added the line "ro.config.hw_volte_dyn=false"

reboot and it came up with the feature.

Your missing piece helped me get this completed, thank you LLoTE

[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] castiwo:
Does anyone by any chance had a similar experience in TWRP?

I can't flash, copy, install anything in TWRP. I keep getting the error message "failed to unmount '/vendor, device or resource is busy, and failed to unmount '/system', device or resource is busy. I don't have logs yet but I will acquire them soon.

I have already tried wiping data, cache, system. Any help will be highly appreciated.

[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] castiwo:
I am now trying to get back to latest stock ROM. I had the stock ROM previously installed and wanted to install RomAur v1.3 (latest available).

Before my attempt to install RomAur I wiped Dalvik-Cache, Cache, Data, System (as mentioned in the instructions (step no. 8))

My downloaded package of RomAur was corrupt (I didn't know that, I only tested it later using Winrar which reported that the archive is corrupt), and therefore it failed to install.

After that I couldn't do anything. ADB never started for me. I tried both official and unofficial TWRP. My internal storage is now decrypted.

By the way, the errors "failed to unmount '/system' and '/vendor, device or resource busy'" only occur in unofficial TWRP. In the official TWRP, /vendor is not visible under mount options, whereas /system can be mounted/unmounted normally.

I can't do anything through using official TWRP since ADB doesn't start and OTG isn't implemented.

Furthermore, TWRP says No OS installed, which is understood.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] Toad:
I've been modifying the alarm clock script in previous versions of Windows Mobile by modifying Script in HKEY_CURRENT_USER/ControlPanel/Sounds/Clock. Generally, I change it so the alarm clock keeps repeating and never goes off.

In Windows Mobile 6.1, whenever i modify anything on the alarm clock page, it overwrites the script I saved there. This didn't happen in previous versions of Windows Mobile. Does anyone else have this problem? Anyone have any suggestions other than using 3rd party apps?
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] Neo3D:
I was also disappointed at how lame the WM6 alarm clock app is. First of all, it only lets you assign sounds in the root windows folder, secondly, it only accepts .wav files, lastly, it doesn't play the sound continuously and it seems to randomly pick how many times it will loop the sound.

I've just got a notification that a new official international firmware for my Pace is available: 2.8.05. It downloaded OK (with some glitches, but luckily downloader resumes after a "fail", does not start from scratch every time) and has just been installed on my watch.

I am curious what is really new and what just a bug fix. The high version number of firmware might mean major upgrade.

The upgrade adds additional languages, but requires new pairing, that is "scan the QR code" procedure. I wonder if this is really necessary?

Obviously, this pairing procedure wiped my custom watch faces, but retained music and gpx files.

Otherwise, firmware looks stable after a couple of minutes of usage and checking.

New "apps":

Disconnect Alert

Standup Alert (on/off)

New activities:

Tennis

Soccer

Run indoor

Well the change log was really full of things. It was the biggest I have seen since I bought the watch last August.

Do i need to wipe my phone data?

Do i lose knox?

Possible tot unroot?

Thank you very much
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] kekistaneerefugee:
You will lose knox/samsung pay and will wipe your data.

The root procedure is still the same exact as your Note 4. Toggle OEM unlock in developer settings, flash TWRP, flash Magisk, profit.

To unroot just flash Stock firmware and be done, or run the uninstaller from within Magisk.

[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] pdash79:
Hi All,

I am using the Avengers Edition, India Version, with Vodafone in Bangalore, India.

The phone was holding good 4g signal.

I am not sure, but after the latest update to 5.1.8, the vodafone sim, in slot 1, seems to lose signal for few hours. it comes back on a restart or recycling airplane mode.

Also, the phone on fresh restart or switch back/forth between airplane mode, holds good 4g signal but falls back to 3g (H/H+) after about 10 minutes.

On reboot and recycle of airplane mode, at times 4g comes back but again falls back to H/H+.

All the while, slot 2 has a Jio sim which has good 4g signal and never loses signa.

Is anyone else experiencing such kind of issue.

I am not sure if it is the phone or it could be vodafone as well.

I am going to run few tests swapping the sims between the slots 1 and 2 and also try using the vodafone sim on another 4g phone and report back.

In the meanwhile, if anyone is encountering such issues on this phone, it would be great if you could reply on this thread.

Thanks in Advance.

[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] pdash79:
Thanks for replying.

I put the vodafone sim in slot 2 and it seems to be working fine.

Also, Jio was in slot 1 and it never lost the signal.

I guess network then is not the culprit.

Since you are also facing, it could be a software issue as it has happened after 5.1.8 only.

Hopefully a bug that will be fixed in future then.

Any other helpful responses would be appreciated.

Thanks again.
