[Huawei P10 Questions & Answers] MShinXD:
Dear,

Maybe this can help them.

I recently had the problem of brick with my VTR-L29, where none of the conventional solutions solved (eRecovery, eRecovery with Wi-Fi, dload and etc).

I solved the problem using the tool Multi-Tool 8 available in the link (https://xdaforums.com/honor-8/development/tool-huawei-multi-tool-team-mt-t3523923). The program recognized my smartphone in FastBoot Mode and managed to flash the rom.

I downloaded the files from the link (https://huaweidl.com/download/huawei-p10/vtr-l29).

As I could not get userdata.img, it was installed without this image and could not start :( , however it entered into eRecovery and was able to download the latest version and the device resurrected. :victory:

Sorry if you could not have posted these links.
[Huawei P10 Questions & Answers] xWannabeex3:
Hey, thx for the Answer.

My Bootloader is locked, and have no chance to Flash with Fastboot.

BTW the Phone still working but after the Huawei Powered by Android Logo, the Backlight turn off and i See only with a Seperate Flashlight

the Backlight goes Off in eRecovery, Recovery, Android.

in Fastboot mode and the Huawei logo the Backlight working without Problems or flimmering

i Updated the Phone via PC to the last Version but nothing happend now i take the Warrenty from the Phone :p

Sorry for my Bad english :/
[Huawei P10 Questions & Answers] xWannabeex3:
So, my Phone is back from Repair store... it have a Liquid Damage that the Prevouis owner not sayed to me...

But idk why the Backlight works on Fastboot and Huawei Powered by ANdroid logo but in Android not.

Hey people,

Recently installed Android Pie and noticed that battery drain in background has increased.

Anyone else having this situation with the new system?
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] BakedTator:
You are not the only one...I'm trying to figure it out as well...I know on the second beta I had the battery life of the gods. I went 3 days without charging my phone and still had 40% left but after that beta it was all down hill...have you noticed Google play services consuming more battery?
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Shiro744760:
Sometimes. But most of the time play services wasn't that much of a drainer. The worst part is that the "full device usage" has been useless ever since the official release. And I keep all of my apps restricted not to operate in the background.

I have tried going back to Oreo and then installing the update from there. Let's see how it goes from there
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] GuestK00434:
I've had Google play services go crazy from time to time on Pie. Finally installed greenify and have greenified as much as possible. Will see what happens. Though I've notice play services really eating up battery in airplane mode.

Also, I think the play store is triggering play services issues. Will see in a day or two.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] oracleoftruth:
I've noticed an increase. Lost about 10% last night which is more than I used to. hoping that now pie is final that essential can make optimisations and additions specific to ph-1 that will help.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] johnny8910:
No problems for me, I'm seeing around 5 sot.

I do d do a full reset though.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] ridobe:
I had horrible drain right away. Checked BBS/Gsam and it was clearly GP services and the play store. Just did a stop/clear cache/clear data on both and yesterday I got 8hr SOT.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] GuestK00434:
I've done this several times on 9.0, only to have GP services suddenly eat the battery a couple days later. Installed greenify and seen that the play store keeps restarting and the Google app was always working. So to test i disabled them. Will see what comes.

I hope yours behaves!
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Shiro744760:
From the looks of it greenify has been helpful. I resisted on using it because for some reason it made my phone touch-vibrate even with battery saver on. But let's try it again and see how it goes
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] avd:
It takes a few days to settle down.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] companyshot:
Hi I had an issue too. XD

Before pie I used to use 7h but now only 5h30

I found problem. It was intelligence battery maneger

I turned off after that okey.

Go settings -) bettery -) bettery manager -) turn off manage apps automatically
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Wiingy:
Hi my battery is dying fast since 9.0. I think i had about 2mins SOT since last charge and it was about 60%. I too noticed Google App running constantly so I disabled it. Battery is still loosing charge quickly.

If it is the battery optimizer it may day a few days to settle down. I will report back any findings.

On a side note, I installed OTA, then did a full wipe.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] js0uth:
If all else fails, factory reset the thing.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] techlogik:
I did a fresh install. Noticed overnight 7-8hrs of off time on the screen, it is using about 10-12 percent. Normally 4-5 percent it would use. Running custom elemental kernel as well. Not cool.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] GuestK00434:
Disabling the Google app and or Google play store caused Google play services to eat even more battery.

Now my current test is to enable all Google bloatware. If you notice Google is tying in all there stuff together especially with assistant. My current guess is, because of this if you have certain Google products disabled etc... It causes a circle and constant attempt by one or more apps to accomplish something that's disable.

I'm sure the Googlers don't disable all the Google stuff we do.....
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] garywojdan81:
These are my current stats. I turned on battery saver at 15%.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] droidstyle:
That is nothing tho...I was getting over 8hrs SOT with 8.1. Now I am only getting 4-5 on 9.0.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] autosurgeon:
Heh I am getting between 8 and 12 hrs sot per charge uptine between 15 and 24 hrs the lower numbers are when exclusively on the cell network with no wifi. This is about 1 to 2 hours better than 8.1
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] ~~Tito~~:
I flashed on release. This was what I have gotten so far. Bare minimum use. It does drain fast when in use, but idle is semi decent.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Wiingy:
Check out WiFi Calling, I think it's turned on by default. I turned it off and my phone has been pretty good today. Too early to tell if it's better then Oreo, but much be then yesterday.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] p51d007:
I did a little test. I currently use a Huawei Mate 9, bought the Essential when the priced dropped to what I thought it should have been to start with. No sim card in it, not connected to wifi but wifi on auto connected. It's set up with all my apps, Nova Launcher etc. Charged it Thursday night. Monday morning, it still was at 92% battery left. Not bad. I'll have to charge it again and put the sim card in it and see how it drains while connected.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Shiro744760:
Dumb question that has been bugging me. Battery manager works better with battery saver on or off? Or whatever, it works the same way?

I have my phone with battery saver mode on all of the time, are there any problems with doing that or none?
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] x000x:
Theres mention on reddit some people have crazy battery drain with google play for some reason.. however, oddly, some don't seem to have the same problem with their essential phone.

https://www.reddit.com/r/essential/comments/966ibl/pie_90_google_play_services_bug_draining_battery/
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] :
I'm testing with it off right now. Can't say I'm seeing a change.

That's my post... Apparently saying it's Google's fault annoyed some people. Oh well! All my installed apps behave, don't run in background unless triggered. There's at least one post a day on Reddit about the same thing lol.

I've turned off battery manager, disabled device health and enabled all other Google apps, signed out of the Google app as I don't user it really, and signed out of Google maps. I've turned all Google web and apps activity off. Yeah, I don't need all that Google stuff.

So I'm letting Google's apps have their way as much as I can, I had all the bloat disabled before. And Google Play Services seems to be less hungry now that I'm letting them be.

My guess is, Google has tied so many of their apps together that if you disable things it causes problems.

In other words, it's Google's phone, not yours, unless you root and ROM it...
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Wiingy:
As I said in my last post, I turned off Wifi calling.

Just hit 5% battery (with no battery saving)

Last Charge - 32hrs ago

SOT - 4hrs, 42mins
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] kboya:
This is slightly better than I had on 8.1. I applied the update on Sunday evening (UK) via fastboot (rooted and running a VPN and adblocker).
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Doing ok... ?
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Shiro744760:
Holy ****. But how
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] :
?

Think of using your phone more like a tablet but on data. Keep brightness as low as you can per the environment.

I don't have anything on in the background — NFC, Bluetooth, apps, etc. Secondly, I don't use bad behaving apps, other than Google play services cause you can't get away from it without a lot of effort.

So all Google's "helpful" tracking is turned off, feeds, location, etc.

Also your cellular signal helps a lot. If you have weak signal it'll drain the battery.

Greenify is good to track what apps you have that don't hibernate properly.

There's a lot of in-depth posts converting how to get good battery life.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Shiro744760:
I see. Thanks for the tips.

Weird is I normally do all that. I keep battery saver on all the time, brightness just on a level I can see, location and stuff all off, battery manager on and all apps restricted and background limited for only 2 processes at a time. Also started greenifying again. But for some reason, it's biggest battery drain is still in the background.

How many days did your phone take to stabilize the system after the update\factory reset?
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Zero. First day on Pie I got my best battery life. Haven't gotten as good since. You might have to track down a wake lock, if you're rooted otherwise a reset.

Some found that if the upgrade from 7 to 9 they had problems, reverted back and went 7 to 8 to 9.

Maybe battery health isn't good?
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Shiro744760:
Hmm, maybe it's not good anymore. Haven't checked in a while, but the last time I did check, it was 95% healthy.

Not rooted, and I did the update from the beta. Somehow it's actually worse than the beta. I have tried to flash it back to 8.1, but for some reason I couldn't, and had to update from the beta 4.

I have had this phone since December, so battery life shouldn't be bad already, should it?
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Shiro744760:
Which was the best wake lock disabler again?
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] :
I don't know. It's been a while since I've rooted and bothered with that stuff.

---------- Post added at 07:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:55 PM ----------

I would bet that's the problem. I've read several posts of people having issues that went beta or 7 to 9.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Shiro744760:
That's actually good to know. Both times I did the update it was from the beta. Will try to get out of the beta. But I won't root, kinda got sick of that
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] :
I got sick of rooting.... I was away tracking down wake locks.

Btw, one big trick for battery life is, minimize the scrolling. Any movement on screen drives up CPU/GPU. Some people scroll a lot when reading. I read the whole screen then scroll up.

Good luck with the upgrade!

---------- Post added at 08:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:12 PM ----------

If you put your device in airplane mode at night, ensure everything is greenified that you can, and you have more than a couple percentage drop then you've got something in the system eating battery. Reset app preferences and try again — that basically is my wake lock detector.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] autosurgeon:
Restrict apps background operation. I do this with any app I don't need push notifications from. Does wonders for the battery life and standby goes way up.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] ~~Tito~~:
I actually had to turn it on. I rely on it. Sprint in the US does not have VoLTE :rolleyes:.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Best battery life I've gotten thus far... Nova ate more than it ever has but Google play services wasn't bad now that I've enabled all Google's stuff.

My screen brightness during this use was 30-50%. Mostly web browsing as can be seen by app issue.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Essential stated today on the Reddit AMA that Google play services battery drain IS a problem with Google's app and they're looking into it.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] garywojdan81:
Mine was really high at first on official pie, but now it's back to "normal" at around 5%
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Mine went all over the place. Now it's reasonable, but considering I don't use much that ties into it it's still higher than any other version of Android.

I think my really high battery drain was due to having disabled some Google apps. Since I enabled them it's about 5% also.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Wiingy:
Sweet as, the essential team is all over it having the AMA's, they must be the best dev's out there
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] garywojdan81:
So I've noticed something weird with play services drain. It seems to increase over time if I don't reboot the phone. I went 6 days without a reboot and it crept up to the top of the list for battery usage again. So I charged to 100%, rebooted while still plugged in, and let it sit on the charger for around 20;more minutes before unplugging it. Then went about regular usage.

This is what I get now:
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] ~~Tito~~:
Its not as bad as how it was. I can get about 19 hours with 2-3 hours SOT. Not amazing, but not terrible either. The battery does drain fairly quickly, but idle is still fine.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Shiro744760:
Did this and lost 8% overnight. Battery usage does not show any app or any info at all. This is weird
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Sadly for Android it isn't weird. Google has gone to such lengths to hide battery information from the user for the simple reason they know it's Google and system apps that drain a lot of battery in the background.

Does greenify show any running apps? Look in developer options for running services. The essential phone doesn't have a lot of running services,... For me all background battery drain has been Google in one form or another — system apps and Google play services and play store. My installed apps hibernate properly.

I think I lost about 3 percent last night and I left LTE on cause I have a good connection here. I've notice on 9.0 that Google services drains more battery at times when you are in airplane mode — you have to realize Google is constantly trying to collect data and when their apps can't they go weird.

If you don't see odd running apps or services via greenify or running services in developer settings then use acubattery, or your preferred battery app to monitor things and possibly a wake lock detection app — I haven't used one in years.

Good luck!

Update...

Btw in battery stats the three dots make sure on the graph you show full device usage.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] scottspa74:
I'm on Android 9 on ph1 and haveno drain issues my pic isn't uploading. Sorry
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] scottspa74:
Trying again
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Shiro744760:
Damn. That explains somethings that have happened before. And no, greenify did not show any running in the background.

I have been meaning to try something. About charging it to more or less 85% and then turning it off overnight. Any thoughts on that?
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] :
If you don't need your phone turning it off can't hurt. My phone is my clock. However it's best to track down what's sucking on the battery that much if possible.

The 80% charge that's recommended by battery University isn't such a big deal. One, how long are you going to keep the phone, if years then maybe it'll matter. Second, it all depends on how hard you're working the phone. Heavy use with lots of heat causes more battery deterioration than charging to 100%.

I charge full or close to because that's what triggers the battery stats to be cleared and restarted fresh. Never had issue charging to full, no battery deterioration. Seen batteries deteriorated quick when left in hot cars, used heavily while quick charging, etc. All heat related.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Shiro744760:
I see. Never had many problems with charging to 100% but lately I have really been using it a lot. And since where I live there is no way of buying this phone or Pixel phones(which are the ones I would buy besides the Essential) and the rest of the good phones are all really expensive I really want to keep it for some good years.

Thanks for the tips

This is about my battery drain overnight, about 7.5/8hrs with silent mode, face down. Minimal things like some push mail at most. Otherwise, connected to WiFi and just sleeping/idling along...Pixel 2 XL would use maybe 3% over the same time period on Android P, rooted and custom kernel as well.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Admiral2145:
This is my 3rd day with over 90 3rd party apps installed and rooted.. Lost 2% last I night (7 hours) while wifi and data/signal was on (no airplane mode). Install better battery stats and find out what's killing your battery and use hibernate on it and you should be good... I have Facebook and everything in sync (Gmail ect)... I am running ex kernel instead of stock kernel also. This is a major update from my nexus 6...getting 6+ hours of sot is something I've never experienced before... Hopefully well get some 9.0 roms so we can tweak and customize buttons ect.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Shiro744760:
Will try it. Lost 11% last night(9hrs) with wi-fi on
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] kralde:
I have a strange issue. As soon I enter in the battery stats screen, the "backgrounds apps are working properly etc" changes instantly to "activate power saving"

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
I'm tempted but I wonder if I can pull the stock boot.img with LG UP then patch it with Magisk then restore it with LG UP and not break the phone lol then if it boots up with Magisk and therefore Root install TWRP with flashfire or a similar program...but I don't think I will even attempt this till I get my V30 back from LG..but if it works that would be sick...
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Phoenix591:
You forgot about the locked bootloader. Not 100% on download mode's checks, but I also believe it also won't flash things not in a signed kdz, that is, without doing something super tricky and depending on the exact version of download mode like the lafsploit.

[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Craigst1:
I have a app that uses imei number to confirm is registered , i used to just edit the apk to fix the imei number but in later builds they added code to stop it from working

so now i use a asus phone and xposed imei changer , but i want to use my google pixel xl now but as theres no xposed yet for android p im not sure what i cant do

i am rooted with magisk, but cant find madgisk modules to change the imei number

what can i do ?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] borxnx:
Is modifying the IMEI allowed in these forums?

Anyway, this is not something Magisk can do by itself, you'd need something like Xposed.

Don't hold your breath for Xposed to come to Pie. If it ever does come to Pie, it won't be for a very long while. Xposed for Oreo is still pretty new, and isn't it still in beta?

You should probably go back to Oreo if this is something you need. Running brand new OS versions usually means that you have to live without some mods for a while.
