[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] GuestK00459:
I just thought I would update this thread. Thanks to CamoGeko I decided to pursue the Swappa angle and contacted them and asked them if they would contact the seller on my behalf which they have done. I made clear that I was not accusing the seller and was just hoping for his assistance. I have heard from the seller and he may have some documentation and is checking into it. It may or may not fly with Essential but it is the only avenue I have left so why not give it a go.

I'll update the thread again once I have more information.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] CamoGeko:
That's great to hear. Hopefully they can provide proof of purchase which means you'll be able to get a replacement device from Essential!

Good luck and hope you get something sorted.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] GuestK00459:
Well even though the original purchaser helped me out and got me a copy of his invoice Essential still told me to take a hike. Soooo I am officially out of options.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] chris1871:
I had the same issue with the battery drain after turn off the phone. In my case, I waited until the empty battery.

After 8 hours without battery I plug the phone to the charger and the issue was gone. In my case was after the security update 5 july in Android 8.1.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] GuestK00459:
Maybe I'm not out of options after all. I hadn't heard of that before but your solution certainly seems worth a try. I will let the battery drain and see what happens. Thanks for the post.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] chris1871:
Wait 8 hours without battery. After that plug the phone to charger, it's the only trick
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] GuestK00459:
Thanks. I will give that a shot. I left it on overnight and it lost 30% of its charge sitting there doing nothing. No radios were turned on.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] chris1871:
Did you leave the phone without a battery for 8 hours before reloading it?
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] GuestK00459:
No. I haven't gotten that far yet. I'm trying to drain is completely. I'm not using the phone so it's taking longer than I would like. It's weird, it drops 20-30% overnight but doesn't seem to drain excessively while powered on.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] GuestK00459:
Ok. I got it to drain completely and let it sit for about 15 hrs. Charging it now. I'll report back when I have some info. Thanks for the suggestion. Even if it doesn't work for me it was certainly worth trying.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] Konnalynn:
I am really curious to see the outcome. Thanks for the updates.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] GuestK00459:
As am I. I recharged it and now need to let it sit powered off for a few days. I'll report back after that.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] Konnalynn:
I was looking up reviews to decide if I should buy one of these and found this forum. I hope for a good result because I have heard some positive things about this phone. Other than this do you have any other input about it?
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] :
I really liked the phone. It's fast and it has a decent display. Essential has been really good about the monthly patches. I loved the fact it was running Pie as well. I was dissapointed that they wouldn't help me out but oh well.

The phone is also friendly to people that like to play with different roms. I'm not really into that but appreciated the fact that it was super easy to flash updates or sideload patches.

I'm hoping this fixes it but it will take a few days before I'll know one way or the other.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] shad0wrun:
hi, why few days ? i have the same issue so i drained the battery this morning by using the 360 camera. i've waited 8 hours to be sure the battery is drained (but really you just have to push the power button over and over until it doesn't bott...) and i just finished charging. i will let it off overnight and see if the battery discharged. if yes i will go RMA. it's an halo gray so i'm pretty sure i won't have the same flavor in exchange. if it doesn't it will give hope to anyone who have this problem... just out of curiosity what is your serial number ? if the problem persist maybe our phone are from the same batch...
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] Konnalynn:
That’s good to hear. Now I will wait for the rest of your feedback.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] shad0wrun:
After emptying the battery, giving it a few hours rest, charging completely while off and just in case hard reseting i'm pleased to say it went back top normal. my halo gray battery didn't discharge over night and it's still 100%
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] :
The reason is the problem only appeared after two or three days of being powered off. If the phone sat for two or three days it would lose 20-30% (or more) of its charge as stated in the OP.

Essential already informed me that I am out of luck as far as a repair goes because I purchased the phone used. The seller even provided me with the original invoice and Essential still told me to take a hike.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] shad0wrun:
well mine was discharging off 60 percent over night... i wouldn't mind 20% in 3 days knowing that i use it as a daily driver and charge every day any way. it definitively has nothing to do with some rogue software (how could it be ?) because hard reset alone didn't change anything. so maybe it has to do with the power management process who is visibly running even if the kernel is shut down and all processes with them.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] :
Mine never got that bad (at least so far). I was figuring it was a bad battery perhaps as nothing should be consuming power when the phone is turned off.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] shad0wrun:
yes something is consuming power. there is a process running the little coffee cup animation. and the charging light. i can see only this as a eventual problem. after 14 hours off mine is still 100% so i keep faith
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] IronRoo:
some malicious apk can install itself as system app, then a hard reset will not delete it, though not aware of this happen on Pie yet

edit: PS, be careful discharging the battery too low as li-ion battery might not take a charge if they go too low, they call this sleeping, then it can only be revived with a special "boost" charge or maybe never if it's been left sleeping with very low voltage for too long (weeks)
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] A_Pac1:
Try disabling Wi-Fi and Bluetooth scanning, that worked for me! I get 4-5% drain over night now

Settings-Google-Location-Advanced-Scanning: Wi-Fi scanning off & Bluetooth Scanning off
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] shad0wrun:
we are speaking about phone switched off, not idle. there's no wetwork scanning....
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] :
Time to update the thread. After being shut off for three days the battery went from 100% to 68% so I guess the battery is on it's way out. I'm officially giving up on trying to fix this phone. It's a shame because I was really happy with it. It *may* still be usable as a daily driver, something I haven't tried with it since the problem began. I might play with it some more if and when I have some time. Thanks to everyone that contributed to the thread. I appreciate all the help and support.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] shad0wrun:
This still doesn't make sense. my phone was discharging 60% over one night and after zeroing the battery and hard reset. it holds 100% for 48 hours and then goes down to 90 after that. there is no pattern... i will contact essential support. there should be some engineer there to get a grip onto that. because it's actually fascinating !
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] :
Mine dropped an additional 10% over last night so it's now down to 58%. Essential refused to help me so I hope you have better luck than I did. I completely agree that this doesn't make much sense. Nothing should be draining the battery while it is powered down.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] avd:
Must be some nsa spying feature.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] ~~Tito~~:
I replaced mine with essential support. Experienced the same problem. Boot into safe mode, document the battery drain with screenshots.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] :
As I mentioned in my OP I did contact Essential support and I did provide everything they asked for and Essential told me to go screw myself. I am the second owner of the phone and they could care less about my issues.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] ~~Tito~~:
I've had something similar happen to me with OnePlus. Not sure why companies are so adamant on being ****ty to supporting the warranty of a resold phone.

I'd still try and push back with proof from safe mode. Escalate and such. Do you have the receipt from the original order?

I haven't read the majority of the thread, so I'm not sure if this is going to be helpful or not.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] :
Yeah I tried all of that. I contacted the original owner that sold it to me and he provided me with proof of purchase which I then forwarded to Essential. They don't care. Totally my problem. They stated in a matter of fact manner that they don't offer support to anyone other than the original purchaser.

Essential Support said

"Thank you for your follow up.

Unfortunately, the process is still the same, we cannot offer a warranty to a third party purchaser.

You can certainly have the original owner reach out to us to do a replacement, but we will not be able to assist you."

Thanks for the suggestion though. Maybe I'll just smash it with a hammer and send it back to Essential... :)
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] CamoGeko:
It sounds to me like the person you purchased it from is very willing to help, or at least has been thus far.

It could be worth asking them if they wouldn't mind starting a case with Essential to get you a replacement unit.

Honestly, Essential aren't doing anything different compared to what another OEM would behave like. In the end it's a used device bought from 3rd party, the original contract if you will which includes warranty is valid with the person who actually bought the phone initially. After it changes hands and someone else becomes the owner of said device that warranty contract becomes null and void pretty much and it's at the manufacture's discretion whether they would want to honor the warranty for the new user at their own cost of time and resources. I guess the most blunt way of putting it is - they have an obligation with the original purchaser, not with you.

OnePlus is actually one of the companies that somewhat get around this where they are more likely to honor the warranty even if the device was purchased from a 3rd party, considering that they provide the original account and purchase info from the 1st user. Although I'm not completely sure how this works in reality as I've never tested this myself.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] :
The seller was helpful but he stopped responding to the thread on Swappa and I'm not sure I want to pursue it any further. I'm just going to stop buying used phones from now on. I know Essential isn't acting any differently that any other OEM because Google pulled the exact same move on me with a Nexus 5X that I purchased new but from Amazon not Google. Luckily LG was still willing to fix bootlooping 5Xs so at least it got fixed.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] sroy:
I have the same issue with my PH-1. Battery dies out completely in 24 hours even when turned off after a full charge. Essential will replace the phone only if you can provide the receipt of phone purchase from the authorized retailer, which I couldn't provide as it was bought on eBay. I'm sure there are a lot of units manufactured with bad battery.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] :
I had a receipt (the seller provided it to me) but Essential still told me to hit the trail. If you buy it second hand you're on your own. They are not going to help you.

No more used phones for me. Tired of getting burned.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] LOVE ME PLEASE:
I believe that this is related to root, custom kernel, or the very unstable TWRP recovery, on some devices. I've dealt with this issue by trouble shooting for a few weeks. The very first time I witnessed this issue I was on stock rooted with Magisk, custom EX kernel with default settings, custom recovery TWRP. Phone got hot out of nowhere...battery died at %35 and would not come back on for nothing until I left it on the charger for about five minutes. Then I did a battery calibration. After I did the battery calibration, I stressed the battery to die and then I did a full recharge again. Decided to cut the device off at a %100 woke up turned the phone on ant it was at %78 I thought wow! Now this after I did the battery calibration!!! So I did the battery calibration wipe again, same! So I rolled with the issues for some time, and decided to go full stock!!! Got the stock November update, flashed the firmware, boom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Haven't had the issues since! I believe this device gets no respect from devs...as far as stability.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] shad0wrun:
For my case no toot no custom rom. i could consider, because it's the halo with alexa, which i uninstalled but keep come back when i reset the thing. but i would just go with a bad battery. even since a calibration and 3 hard reset the phone is losing 3 percent over 3 days instead of 60 over night last month
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] firegate22:
My story:

1) phone got very very hot and didn't charge at all (stopped -> lucky guy... thought actually it was close to explode -> charging cable was melting a bit).

2) phone is not charging anymore when it is turned on

3) turned off, everything normal

4) today I turned it back on at 70-80%? and it showed after boot 100% + way faster discharge (usually I can use it 2 days, now barely 1... not extact measures, I know)
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] CamoGeko:
I would have to disagree with you there, I think this device has been absolutely brought back to life by the dev team. The camera is actually half decent now, November stock is about as good as this phone has ever been. October was stable as a rock too.

I still think the battery is more of a hardware issue.

Bugs any?

How is performance? And which build did you flash?
[Motorola One Power Guides, News, & Discussion] ITMASTER:
Very smooth and no bugs at all :) Build OPT28.53 and I think only this build is available now. not other builds security patch level May 1 2018, tested for 8 hours already everything is working fine, just one thing how to change ringtone volume to be stable and not incremental..when I don't have experience with clean android so didn't find any place to change it to stable instead of incremental :( its annoying someone calling its starting low volume and then increasing.
[Motorola One Power Guides, News, & Discussion] smyaknti:
Incremental call volume is an AOSP feature. Ask at https://t.me/MotoOnePower for the other ROM I referred on YouTube. You can also try Lineage 16 with some bugs! :p
[Motorola One Power Guides, News, & Discussion] ITMASTER:
Thanks for the reply , but I don't like custom roms ) I want to have android one official rom. why AOSP feature is inside of this rom , this is official rom from One Power model if I am not wrong.
[Motorola One Power Guides, News, & Discussion] smyaknti:
Well, its a vanilla android ROM and probably it was before it was taylormade by google. The final ROM is different, it has the settings that Pixel 2 lineup came with when it came out with oreo 8.1. AOSP is also developed by google and its just more feature rich! No Harm. And trust me, incremental call volume can save you an emmbarassment in some quiet place! :p Saved me many a times!
[Motorola One Power Guides, News, & Discussion] ITMASTER:
Can we hope that we can get exact official rom from the device android one that lunched in India? I don't understand why Motorola don't have download section like other company's do ??

[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] azsl1326:
I am running Android Auto in a 2018 Acura TLX. I have noticed that I am no longer able to increase or decrease the car's audio volume when Android Auto is connected. It doesn't seem to happen immediately and I haven't been able to exact pinpoint what the trigger is that causes the car volume controls to stop working. Best I can tell is that the issue occurs after using Google Maps and voice navigation has started. Unplugging the phone and plugging back in fixes the issue, temporarily.

I am not sure when exactly this issue started. I know that everything worked as expected when I was on Android 8.0, Oreo. Not sure if it started happening since I upgraded to Pie or if there was an AA incremental upgrade in between that time that is causing the problem. It's happened on both OOS 9.0 and Omni TreskMod.

Know this is a long shot posting here as it seems to be more of an issue being caused directly by Android Auto, but was curious to see if anyone else has run into this issue.

Thanks, in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] qroot0:
Hi all,

Im trying to flash a custom built kernel on a g930fd device running android 6.0.1.

ive did the following steps:

built the kernel - the source matches with the rom on the device

replaced the out Image using AIK

created a flashable zip and tried to instal it via TWRP.

another steps ive tried as sanity checks, ALL RESULTED IN BOOT ANIMATION LOOP:

1. dd out the boot.img form running device, dd that boot.img back to /dev/block/platform/*/*/BOOT

2. flash boot.img with odin

3. built dtb and Image and flashed in using Lazyflasher

IF SOMEONE KNOWS WHAT COULD BE THE PROBLEM, ILL APPRECIATE ANY HELP , THANK YOU.

[MENTION=4544860]osm0sis[/MENTION] i hope maybe you can help me with a valuble input :) thanks in advance!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] djb77:
Where's your source?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] qroot0:
i got it from samsung opensource
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] djb77:
You do realise you still have to modify it in order to get it to work properly.

So where is YOUR source code? What's your github link?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] qroot0:
Sorry,

heres the link:

github.com/IgalGokhman/8890-6.0.1-custom-kernel

Ive reverted the changes i made to the defconfig.

BTW, Its my first time building a kernel for samsung device, so im not sure about all the chhanges i need to make in order to run it on the device.

Ive read a lot through xda and othher forums but the majority of them just saying: run make and install using updater-script...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] djb77:
Well, I really needed to see what changes you made to start with, because all I have in front of me now is clean source.

Most of us use a build.sh script of some sort which builds the zimage, dtb, and ramdisk. My script does it all, builds kernel and zip.

Here's my old MM kernel that you can have a look at:

https://github.com/TheGalaxyProject/tgpkernel-s7-mm

If you use any of this please give credit
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] qroot0:
Thanks I’ll take a look.

I do have a build script, eventually I have an Image and a dtb.image, from both of them I make a boot.img with AIK.

I tried to build the kernel with the config values I pulled from the device /proc/config.gz and with the “as is” values in the arch/arm64/configs/exynos_8890_defconfig

Both boot.imgs bootlooped the device
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] monotron:
Hi,

My friend's phone isn't reading SD cards, and we'd obviously like to get the data off of the card he's been using as adopted storage. However, the phone is not rooted and the bootloader is locked, so we likely can't copy the encryption key at all. Is there any way of recovering the data (i.e. rooting the phone without factory reset)? We'd really prefer not to lose the data on the card. The phone is a Moto G3 running the latest firmware.

(Just realised I posted this in the wrong section, my apologies! Is it possible to get this moved?)
