[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] hackdrag0n:
I agree. There was a time when I flat out wouldn't use a phone without rooting it first. As phones and firmware have improved over the years I see fewer and fewer reasons to do it.

I know there's probably the odd thing you'll miss but you'd be surprised how quickly you adapt to not having them.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] jameslfc5:
The thing that will sway me is call recording and the ability to change the ridiculously large nav button height!

If these 2 options were available without root, I would stay stock
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] destz0r:
i dont really need root

for adblock, use adhell 3

for youtube adblock, install "youtube vanced"
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Dreadsta5889:
You can record calls without root. I use call recorders from play store. I totally disabled nav bar with Gesture Navigation by xda.

Edit: Both are nonroot.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] teegunn:
I didn't root my Note 7, S7E, S8+ or Note 8. The main thing I miss rooting for is Titanium backup of apps and their data. It's the app data that one can't get transferred over 100% when switching to a new phone. Plus it is just nice to have an app and it's data backed up for several reasons. There is a non root app/data alternative with Helium, but it doesn't work on all apps.

I would probably still be rooting if Samsung didn't punish us by locking our phones down to 80% charging limit. But that negative is too much for me to take, so no root. These phones work very well now without root, except for app/data backup as I stated.

Google Samfail root 80%
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] cpufrost:
The Exynos is for rooting. ;)

Love TiB, AdAway and others to name a few.

Is it a deal breaker to NOT be able to root? A few years ago it was, today not really.

I just wish that all phones on all platforms had a switch that the user could decide whether or not they wanted to unlock the bootloader and do what they wanted and accept the risks involved.

I'm using Acr call recorder and it doesn't require root.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] andronikal659:
I have acr pro. It works great and don't need root. I do need to root since I need titanium to restore my data from swype (themes and backup words) which they stopped development so cannot retrieve backup data, theme or words without it. Also, you have lmt if you want to add quick launch app and add the menu button which is gone for android. As well as many other apps like titanium, viper 4 android, screen timeout, adblock plus, no ads YouTube, ...

Downside, it can break screen mirroring, samsung pay...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] x7nofate:
This is ridiculous I won't be able to root my note 9:( if I knew it before I would buy exynos version from abroad. I can't live without ad away, unlimited hotspot, and all modifications. First modification I thought it will be sound level as it so quite compere to s9+
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] hackdrag0n:
No problem buddy, happy to help.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] teegunn:
Pretty sure Samsung locks in your charging limit to 80% on all their newer Snapdragon phones. They've been doing this for a while. If it has changed to our benefit (no 80% charging limit), then I would seriously reconsider rooting.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] sefrcoko:
I don't use that app so I don't know of any alternatives, but if there are none then my advice is simply to go ahead and root (so long as you can live without the things you lose with root). Do a cost/benefit and see if it's worth it to you, unless someone suggests an alternative app that wouldn't require root of course.

Oh and if people are going off topic then just politely bring us back please...no need to throw a fit (see rule 2). It's a community, not customer service.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndyMan386:
I am sorry if this has been asked in other ways, or there is a simple fix.

Basically the issue is we have two kids, one with an android tablet, the other a fire 7. Sometimes we let them play on their tablets before bed, and then tell them its bedtime, they plug it in (if not already) and then go to bed. On occasion, we notice they wake up and get back on it. With school starting back up now (In NY) bed time is bed time, so we want the tablets to be locked during certain hours.

Ideally, I would like to use an app that we can control when it is locked from our cell phones (possibly a set schedule, but an easy override), which would also help during times when they are grounded. :) I know one would say to just take the tablets, which sometimes we do, but they also use it for alarms, so that isnt a huge help.

If anyone knows of apps like this, I would appreciate it!

Thanks a ton!

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] arnes_king:
Hi everyone,

I have the exynos S9+ model with the latest BTU firmware on it (STOCK without root). I have a strange issue, which I noticed long ago but now it started to bother me.

It seems that even if my apps are still stored in the ram they get reloaded when I switch to them after some time of not using them.

I do not use many different apps, 5-6 maximum, and I see this most often on the Samsung internet browser. Even if it is not cleared from the ram, when I switch to it my websites are reloading. I see this also on other apps like YouTube, and I am getting frustrated because I have 6 GB of ram in my phone which is not being used as it should.

Does anybody have a similar issue, or do you have some proposal for a fix? I was thinking that it is maybe due to the active developer settings so I tried turning them off, but it was still the same.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] arnes_king:
Just for info. I think that I figured out what my problem was. I was putting all apps to be in power save mode always.

Now I turned it off for some apps and will test. Just if someone faces the same problem so you know what may be causing it :)

Sorry for the topic.

Welcome to the forum, Robson.

You can look up the numbers yourself by going into Settings > System > Device Information. The Version tab has the info you need.

If you still can't figure out what you have, post that info here, and someone can interpret for you.

If you never flashed the phone with another firmware and the phone is in the original condition then you have WM5 for sure as HTC stopped producing Wizards before WM6 came out (and Microsoft never agreed to it also)

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] mestrini:
You have a custom (cooked) from its right who is a member of this forum and cooks the TNT ROMs

I believe that TNT4 is already a WM6 ROM but you should look at the WM6 section and look for its right threads as his signature has links to all his ROMs

anyway, since you have a 2.xx G4 you can try any new WM 6.1 ROMs as long as you either use SoftSPL or HarSPL (don't ask, look for it in G4 section, pls)

[Honor 9  Guides, News, & Discussion] arigosaki:
Hello I have my honor 9 since it launch june 2017.

I use global rom strait from the (aliexpress) store. I use EMUI 8.0.0.368 (C432) my model is STF-L09, Kernel version is 4.4.23)

Slowly i get frustrated from the device and ill explain why (if there are solved problem ill like to hear that)

1. Performance issues - after every update or upgrade it become slower and laggy, and now it reacts even slower than my xiaomi mi4 :(!

2. Reliability - since now screen got broke (too easy), battery got damaged (bulged) and the rear cover opened, and now camera getting out of focus (well known huawei problem that on youtube you can find temporary solution - hit hard :crying:) . good point for the phone is that fixing isn't expensive.

3. Camera Video issues - focus was never good (before my recent problem) and stability bad for 2018 phones.

4. Heating too fast - in summer phone get hot and screen become darker so almost cant see anything.

5. Display - till today it can not be automatic brightness cause it getting immediately to minimum light - come on couldn't they fix it till now ? another issue is not bright enough in direct sunlight no matter what other users say, compare it to samsung phones and you understand !

6. Connectivity - Wifi too slow. i test the wifi speed of the phone next to others and next to laptop and it was half speed of the others :rolleyes:

7. Smart assistance - Draw never work at my phone, no matter how hard i knock on it

Please if any of the issues solved il like to hear that

Thanks

I never had one of these problems and I am on 8.0.0.368 too.

Well, after a time in full summer sun and full usuage it got a bit hot but i guess that is normal with every phone.

Maybe you should clear all caches, there could be some rubbish left from previous firmwares.

So it should be an asian Phone STF-ALx0 or STF-TL10 rebranded to STF-L09.

If this is the case, this mean you're out of the 1-year chinese guarantee.

and now camera getting out of focus (well known huawei problem that on youtube you can find temporary solution - hit hard :crying:) . good point for the phone is that fixing isn't expensive. [/QUOTE]

[Honor 9  Guides, News, & Discussion] arigosaki:
No i didnt do nothing. it come like this from the shop (aliexpress to shop) when i asked them to send it with global rom

Why its not look ok ?
[Honor 9  Guides, News, & Discussion] oslo83:
I said you may have rebranded wrong because your old post : https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?&p=73073528

But if it was done last year by chinese seller you should be ok.

So when you get your phone you were on nougat C432, since then, you're now on oreo.

Maybe somethings gone wrong during the last year updates. Does your flahlight still working ?

It may be a good thing to test again your problem after

-a reset to factory settings

or better

-a full restore with a dload firmware image via sdcard or usb-otg

So I installed it the phone is rooted but after I clicked on patch a zip file and choose the Samsung zip and the where I want it to be stored but before it stars to patch the zip file it tells me error 200 . so should I use the Samsung official firmware as primary ?

Wow, I had a look and feel of this at Best Buy earlier and it felt so good in the hand. Major let down was that gaping cut out at the bottom of the case.[emoji26]

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] squall_kay:
Have a look on nillkin silicone case.

here the link.

https://nillkin.org/smartphones-acc.../nillkin-samsung-galaxy-note-9-flex-pure-case

if you're looking for this case in aliexpress, selling price much cheaper.

FYI, i bought this along with official samsung silicone case.

both have similar finishing, both dust magnet. the official samsung tad wider and have slightly better overall quality.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] Limeybastard:
The Samsung silicon case appear more thicker and rigid.

Yes correct. Thus it came with higher price tag

[Samsung Gear S3] sheni7:
Not able to add sub dial.

I did some research and discovered that I could make the watch using the graphics that you supplied using the Mr Timemaker website and apps. The website's watchmaking application did not allow me to upload the sub_hand that you supplied. I was able to transfer the watch to my Gear S3 Frontier, but like I said it doesn't have the sub_hands. Thus I am having to ask my previous question what app did you use to compile this custom watch face and transfer it to your watch? Thank you!
