[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bar-aka:
Either I'm doing something wrong, or this option is a useless piece of ****!

I have my phone fairly secured, long pin (use fingerprint to unlock) and encrypted. But I thought that if a thief manages to break into my phone (either guessing the long pin, or using some vulnerability), then I want to have stored as little data on the phone as possible. Keep it all in the cloud since my phone is connected 24/7.

So I thought how can I limit the number of emails that Gmail stores locally. There's an option called "Days of emails to sync", which doesn't seem to be doing anything. I had it set to the default 30 days, but when I put the phone in airplane mode and started scrolling through emails, I got as far as 8th of April (Note, it is 31st of August as I'm writing this post).

I changed it to 1 day. Didn't do ****.

I cleared cache, nope still all there.

I cleared all Data, force closed it. When I opened it, I didn't make it in time to get to the option because the app already managed to sync again.

I cleared all Data, force closed it and entered airplane mode. I couldn't change the option because it was "Waiting for sync" (airplane mode on). Disabled ariplane mode... Yup, same as above, synced the emails again.

I even tried the above and restarting the phone.. nope!

Anyone had any luck with this?

I'm on an OP3, Omnirom.
[Maze Alpha Guides, News, & Discussion] codQuore:
Hi guys, so after reading another thread on here I managed to get my phone charging. Like others I managed to catch the lead while charging and it damaged the USB-C plug on the lead, just enough so that (at first) it simply wouldn't charge. I managed to get charge by forcing the lead in a touch and having in the "right place" and of course, not touching the phone while it charges. I also wanted another lead so I could charge in the car.... but of course, it also doesn't work if the USB-C lead is plugged in upside down (sic)

I purchased replacement leads thinking the first was broke, the next didn't work either.

This is as some have pointed out because the USB-C socket on the Maze Alpha is sunk in further by about 1 mm. So no standard made lead works.

SO I took one of the other leads and trimmed off about 1mm of the rubber/plastic (See red line on image)

Image link : https://ibb.co/kmD0QK

and it works perfectly. So I trimmed my existing official Maze Alpha lead and that also works perfectly now too.

Of course, if you wish to do this, don't buy one that has a metal shroud or surround on the base of the plug. Please also be careful not to cut yourself.

[Wing, P4350 Herald Upgrading] rafpau:
Hello everybody,

before posting I read a hundred posts on the forum and tried a dozen Rom on my htcP4350 and my problem is always the same, wifi Does not activate ,

when pressing wifi in comm manager , waiting a few seconds and nothing changes it stays off,

and in a setting wirelesslan when pressing torn on wireless lan,nothing happens

Someone has an idea?

Thanks in advance

ROM : OpenTouchV3.OBIG WWE

Radio : 03.07.90
[Wing, P4350 Herald Upgrading] v2comp:
with that rom, you press the button in comm manager and when it flashes.....press it again
[Wing, P4350 Herald Upgrading] rafpau:
I tried but still no success! J'appui and after a few seconds of waiting nothing !

If you know a ROM with wifi works thank you for indicate it to me .
[Wing, P4350 Herald Upgrading] maniacallyhappy:
I think it might be a physical problem not dealing with the rom b/c I have the same issue. I've used the stock Rom and Touch It and it hasnt worked with either of them. I got a hold of my wing used, but was ripped off because the douche bag sold it to me without a bat and the screen was cracked. I think something might have gotten messed with when I opened it or something.
[Wing, P4350 Herald Upgrading] v2comp:
I used the one you have for more than a month and then installed the 4.0 Biggy with VC and VD

it worked with both, no problem.

[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scorthyn:
Hey, I broke my op2 screen so I bought one from ebay, teared it apart all correctly (i'm a computer technician), installed the new screen, all fine but a weird symptom appears:

- It boots and shows the Oneplus logo then screen all black. I know it booted cuz the touch buttons work and i can ear the sound of unlocking etc. Also if i plug into the pc I can easily access its memory.

- If I try to enter recovery I know it enters too but the screen is all black, the only mode I can see the screen is fastboot mode and it stays and acts normally.

- I did a full reset on the phone back to stock via adb, thinking it was software, its all stock now, still the same occurs

Im out of ideas so I just think the screen is faulty from ebay, did this happened to anyone?

Thanks in advance

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] JackOfOwls:
I have about 20 days left to return my RN5 to Amazon but haven't decided to do so. It seems like a solid phone but there's a poor signal quality with T-mobile towers here in the States compared to my much cheaper $30 Walmart android phone. I hear the other person fine but I'm frequently garbled on my end. I'll be trying AT&T towers within a couple of days and if I see improvement I'll be keeping the phone, if not, I'm returning it. Admittedly, my home has always been troublesome for receiving good signal strength but nothing as bad as what I've experienced with the RN5 on T-mobile towers. My question is: if my phone has been updated with OTA to MIUI 9.6.3.0, unlocked & rooted, does a simple factory reset in the MIUI 9.6.3.0 menu restore it to defaults so I can return it exactly as I received it or do I need to do something more?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] GuestD0638:
You need to flash miui 9.6.3.0 via fastboot.

It will remove twrp, root and stuff and restore your phone like you received it.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] JackOfOwls:
So, since I'm already on 9.6.3.0, there's no danger of bricking my device if I do this because of the anti-rollback feature? I don't think I've ever flashed from the XRN5 's Fastboot menu before.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] GuestD0638:
No, you're good to go. 9.6.3 has arb 4 and you're flashing it too. So no issues.

You can even use mi flash tool to flash it. Kinda easy than fastboot.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] raptorddd:
you need latest fastboot rom or any on ARB4 and miflash.. and in miflash tick clean all lock. itll fatory reset and lock bootloader.

pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.android.bluetooth

pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.android.bluetoothmidiservice

It's a shame because this isn't really a debloat. It removes all sorts of things that aren't bloatware. I'd quite like a debloat option that just removes the ads and a few actual bloatware apps, not removing everything from Xiaomi accounts management to system reset

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] mohan_168:
My sincere apologies. I did not face the issue because I did not sign-in to MIUI account when it prompts after a fresh setup. I clicked on "SKIP" and only signed into Google account.

Hence removing "MIUI account" and "Find devices" did not cause issue on my phone. And, as I wrote, this is tested, but I should have written that I did not use MIUI account for sign-in.

Once again, I apologize the problem I could have caused. I have updated the thread and removed "MIUI account" so that other users do not have the inconvenience.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] mohan_168:
Most of the things, I believe 99% of the things that are being removed are consistent with other de-bloats that you can personally validate on other threads such as Redmi Note 5 Pro/Redmi Y2 etc.

There are lot of google alternatives of what we have removed. Most of the XIAOMI apps have call-home feature, which is the reason to remove it.

Thanks for the feedback.

Did you type the path of TWRP correctly? A simple trick is to rename the TWRP image file as TWRP and place it in the same folder as your Platform Tools (adb). That way the command 'fastboot boot TWRP.img' (without quotes) will work nicely.

Cannot update system apps

Ever since I debloated my phone I am unable to update system apps from the updater. Will I be able to undo the debloat without having to wipe my data again?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] LQDForce:
you can dirty flash official rom in TWRP, without wiping data.

or you can manually install the required files in /system/app & /system/priv-app

if you really need miui apps, debloating using this adb method is never a good idea. it is better for you to use magisk module debloater and do it manually or import a txt file like i posted above.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] wbarnes4393:
I went from a OG Pixel XL, to a Note 8, and now a Note 9. I got a charger that supported fast charging for the Pixel, and then just kept using the same one when I got my Note8. Seemed to work well enough. But, I have noticed with my Note 9 that that charger doesn't seem to keep up when I have the GPS up and running and screen brightness up. I am regularly getting the "slow charging" warning.

So, looking for the fastest in-car option. I have ordered the Samsung OEM charger: https://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/m...e-micro-usb-and-type-c-cable--ep-ln920bbegus/

- is that the best option, given Samsung's proprietary fast-charging technology? Or, can I use any Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 accessories? Or is there a better option than those two?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] @rbiter:
Sounds like it is thermal throttling because GPS and screen on combined with charging make the temperature of phone escalate. It is probably a preventative to not damage your phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] Nasty_z:
No it's not thermal throttling. I can confirm this. My Pixel XL used to charge rapidly but the same charger doesn't charge my Note9 even close to as fast. 1000mah max. I have the Exynos variant. Not sure what car charger I need since I obviously don't have Qualcomm Quickcharge
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] @rbiter:
Some phones have better thermal control of many things. Some are too aggressive and some not aggressive enough. I can't speak for your problem, but some OEMs have slowed down charging while in use recently. I have not used Samsung as a daily driver for 2 years and they let fast charging go full blast until crash or often reboot. Using your display, probably with Max auto brightness, GPS and expecting fast charging is an unrealistic concern. You want it to slow charge. Note4 didn't have the best thermal management system. I have 2 note4s, one which is white, that I use as a dash cam exclusively. I intentionally have a slow charger on it and it is recording video with screen off mostly. Being higher in my windshield it gets hotter quicker of course but I try to help mitigate that with slow charging. During Summer it reboots once in a while because too hot and battery stays about even, this rarely happening during other seasons unless I stay in one spot and forget to turn off. If I use the screen, record and use GPS even with a fast charger it loses. I would be less concerned about it because you're expecting something unrealistic, possibly even dangerous and obviously affecting the longevity of your battery. I only have 2 batteries left for my note4s. The last battery in dashcam bulged significantly and thankfully did not explode. Do you want your expensive new toy to bulge? It would be terrible to wonder why your phone feels funny or looks funny and then the back cracks. That is how I noticed the last battery bulging. I actually used it and something just didn't feel right so I checked battery.

Paying $1400USD for mine after tax and a 1st party case I am babying the hell out of this battery to get a damn good 2 years use out it. I am getting well over 10h SOT and trying to use 2 days off one charge, topping a little bit during work the second day if I don't go straight home. No heavy 3d games, just light games. Training auto brightness to be less aggressive in dimmer conditions and not too bright in bright conditions. If I wake up in middle of night I take off my Nokia wireless charger. Little things add up. To each his own.
