Hi,

Do you have your tips to speed/boost up your mate 8 device?

I got C432B580 with 3 GB RAM. All I did so far after wipe data , factory reset was debloating using root and root uninstaller.

Hello!

I've recently bootlooped my phone and had to switch over to a custom rom because there wasn't a high speed download. And I didn't have time for a 12 hour+ download.

If the answer is no, that's okay!

[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Spudlinator:
So after stupidly trying to update twrp through twrp instead of fastboot, I can only access fastboot and the universal bootloader installed on the phone. If I don't do anything, the phone simply goes through universal bootloader and I see a small penguin before the screen goes back and I need to restart the phone again. However, in the bootloader I can select to go to fastboot which does work. I've tried flashing TWRP through fastboot (fastboot flash recovery twrp...) and it said success however after clicking 'reboot to recovery', the phone once again just boots to the bootloader and I'm back at square one.

Thank you so much if anyone can help!
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] bornlivedie:
FYI, you can update TWRP using TWRP. Nothing wrong with that, I do it all the time. It's faster and easier to do so.

You might have an incompatibility between bootstack and TWRP.

So, please provide us more info.

ROM:

Bootstack used:

TWRP version:

What were you trying to do besides updating TWRP?:
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] laglink:
Funny thing... I'm having the exact same problem.

I instaled TWRP (3.1.1-0-9c3b7e99) using the AxonToolkit 1.2.1.

Everything went smooth with the toolkit. I could get into TWRP and did some back-ups (as recommended), then wipe Dalvik/ART Cache, System, data, cache, and finally, try to install LineageOS 15.1.

I used the files:

- ZTE_A7LOSv1_UniversalBootStack.zip

- A2017U_OreoModem.zip

- lineage-15.1-20180810-UNOFFICIAL-axon7.zip

UniversalBoot and Modem were installed correctly, but I got an error when trying to install Lineage. I can't remeber the error number but it said something like: "this ROM is for device ailsa_ii_axon7 but this device is ."

Since then... my phone is in eternal loop and can only get into Fastboot. Can't access TWRP.

Thanks in advance to anyone willing to help me.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] laglink:
Don't mind... I have it back.

After many reboots, It only seems that this is working different with the Universal O bootloader. On the main screen, I tap the volumen button, choose "Recovery", reboot, press the power button on the main screen, press it again, the Linux Pinguin appears, press power button again, and then TWRP is back.

After that, I got to wipe and do the normal ROM installation process.

Whats new on the N9s DEX mode?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] partcyborg:
This already exists for the s8/n8/s9 and varieties. It requires an unlocked bootloader to accomplish though as you need a custom kernel

Take a look at the dex without dexstation hack that was done for the earlier devices (it exists now for s9/+ too). It lets you run in dex mode with any HDMI/USB port breakout box. That is all that this "no hardware dex" solution is going to be. You will have to have an adapter to go from your usb-c port to HDMI/displaylink and USB, it's not like Samsung can just hide those ports somewhere on the device. That is literally all there is to it. There is no "hardware" because there is none needed outside the ability to speak video and USB and whatnot out the devices single USB port, something that is trivial for the sd845.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] Gruby4D:
Thanks for confirming what i read. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] FlipFlopHHJ:
That's also why I figured it might rollout to s8/s9 as a software update.

Would make sense if they wanted more people to start using DeX.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] partcyborg:
Maybe that is true, but if they did that they would be effectively destroying the dex device itself as it would be completely obsolete right? Plus it would make a feature currently only available to Samsung's current flagship device, which some might say would water down the note 9s brand a bit. It definitely would be a welcome development though!
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] thegreatkazoo:

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JavaMac:
Hey folks. I've been using the rootless Pixel Launcher on my 6P for a while, and it's been a great experience, up until yesterday when some updates came through Play Services. Since then, the launcher consistently crashes everytime I attempt to get to the homescreen.

I'm back on the Now Launcher, which I'm not a fan of. I'm hoping this is a widespread issue and a fix will come through soon.

I just wanted to see if anyone else is experiencing this with recent updates.

I'm going to uninstall the launcher and see if I can remedy the problem. I'll post back with more information later this morning. In the meantime, please feel free to post any suggestions or just to say it happened to you too.

[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] greenvirag:
This Android 9 is so horribly ugly. I don't think I can bear it. What the hell, seriously. At least we should have the option (even if not default) to keep the clock where it always has been. I'm devastated. And then I haven't even mentioned how utterly ugly and disgusting is the quick settings drop-down. Seriously, what the hell was going on in that dev office. Have they tried on their own phone (let's say Pixel 2 XL), and noone noticed how bad it's gonna be??

This. This. This. I actually typed a huge post and was about to start a thread about it, but then just saved it as a draft.

The whole thing looks like a free substratum theme that mocked iOS and Samsung but failed horribly.

The ugly circles, the clock on the right with no option, the rounded corners when you have an expanded status bar and how the outsides of them are completely black. The dark theme looks even worse. The volume control is in a cool place and I like the feel but how the hell do I adjust other volumes quickly without full diving into the settings? Ugh. Rant over, sorry

I love the look of iOS. So Pie and everything that comes with it is great for me, the only reason I don't use an iPhone it's because they don't have nearly the capability that we do to customize our phones. Honestly I believe that if the iPhone had the same customization abilities that Androids had a lot more people would be using them.

https://www.tomsguide.com/us/galaxy-note-9-benchmarks,news-27773.html

I wonder about these tests although it's really comparing apples to oranges with different CPU and OS but some things can't lie, and the tests are designed to be platform independent.

I gotta say I'm slightly disappointed the snapdragon 845 performs poorer in comparison... And supposedly the Exynos version this year performs worse than the snapdragon, which is a first.

They specifically only showed the benchmarks where iPhone X beats the note. There are also many where it's the other way around and by a large margin. And anyways the note 8 still beats almost everything for everyday usage if you look at some of the real life speed test comparisons on Youtube, and also it's still the best at memory management.

IPhone x is better only at the first test, when the benchmark test is run by 4 times in a row to mimick gaming, it is on of the worst devices and gets hot while the note only loses like 4-5% of performance, note 8 lost 10% or so. Don't know where I read it but someone tested it out

Speed tests are irrelevant now. Most phones these days, even budget android phones, are way faster than they have been ever before.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] varcor:
Samsung really messed things up with the Exynos 9810 chipset. In an effort to match iPhone's Single Core speed they ended up with a processor that runs hot and abnormally high battery drain. Hopefully the new water-carbon cooling system will overcome these deficiencies. You're lucky to have ended up with the Snapdragon variant, it eclipses the Exynos and iPhone A11 in a majority of benchmark tests.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] iggibar:
Only the uneducated will get their panties in a twist with these tests that are rather stupid. Yeah, you might be comparing one phone to another by using one score type, but how you get to the score is different for each phone. Almost ALL benchmark tests run different algorithms between iPhones and Androids. It is actually not possible to statistically compare them together. It sure makes for a great headline grabber though.

I always go bouncing between Apple and Samsung phones(mostly Note series). Not because I can't choose one over the other, but because I just like phones in general and I'm a tech geek.

These tests are stupid, because Apple said it themselves...it's not speed that makes a great phone, it's how you use it. And to me, the complete experience that Samsung has brought to me personally, in the form of the Note series, simply can't be matched by Apple right now! Geekbench scores can show an iPhone scoring 5 times as high as my Note 9, and I would still by my Note 9 because of my user experience.

People get so caught up with the useless numbers.

I used to own an iphone 8 plus. Mobile phones are built to be useful for life of a person. Okay, iphone a11 chip is a beast but what can you do EXCLUSIVELY, NOT AVAIBLE FOR OTHER ANDROID PHONES in iphone? NOTHING.

But i can do these on my NOTE 9:

1) Take notes easily, draw for fun without any lag and sharing is smooth. No crushes..

2) Access every every details of settings. I can easily disable GPS with one tap.

3) Google services are naturally more integrigated.

4) I can see all the details of my photos. I can shoot raw, i can shoot manually.

5) Thanks to edge screen, my favourite apps are one tap away.

6) Charging is way faster, charging cable and adapter is included.

7) AKG and ICONX earbuds came for free with Note 9 pre-sale.

8) VPN connection is faster. Doesnt drop. I can see diagnosis of inbound speed.

9) 128 gb + Samsung cloud (15gb) + Dropbox + Google Drive. Cloud services are all integrated.

10) 960 fps mode, ultra ultra slow.

11) Take selfies with the cool s-pen.

12) Translate words with the cool s-pen.

13) I know that SAMSUNG will not slow my phone without warning.

etc etc...

Believe me or not, i used both iphone and note 9, i feel EXACTLY NO DIFFERENT in terms of speed. They are both fast. Benchmarks are no important for me. I chose the free life with no worries. I am in love with Note 9.

Hi!

Long time no see, haven't touched android in a couple years and could use some help unrooting my Moto X. It is a verizon Moto X (2013), android 4.4.2 rooted with towel pie root.

What do I do? Read through this page but was still confused, and several of the download links weren't available. There is an update available for my phone, what would happen if I accept it while it's rooted? I'm fine to be on 5.1, just want to get the phone working for my friend.

Anyone else experience this? I have a battery for my S5, part number EB-BG900BBU that was working just fine up to around the last week in July, at which point it started causing the S5 to bootloop. I can't even get into Recovery when it's in the phone, but I can get into Download mode. The other battery I have on hand works just fine.

The battery isn't swollen and visually seems OK otherwise. Any idea what could be wrong here? Any fixes?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ibuprophen:
This basically looks an awful lot like a simple Defective Battery.

Most all batteries also have a very small circuit board strip that communicates with the device. So if you look at the 4 square like brass colored pads, 2 of them are the Positive (+) & Negative (-) power connections and the other 2 are for the communication to and from the battery and device.

There's no real way to fix this and defective batteries can happen. Sometimes defective batteries can even potentially damage a device with prolonged use (this isn't in all cases and no way of knowing if it is or not).

Your best bet would be to stop using it. If you had recently purchased it new, you should try to get it replaced as being defective. If it's not new, you should still stop using it and replace it as well.

I hope that I had explained this okay via text... :)

Good Luck!
