[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Dankees:
So, I was getting fairly good battery life until recently. I started to use Power Shade and I think it was soon after that that my battery started to really take a nose dive. I even paid for the upgraded part of the app. A couple of days later - and the app is no longer even offered in the Play Store. What's up with that?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] MrMike2182:
People keep doing that in the play store to rip people off just request a refund from the play store!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Dankees:
Well, I had paid for Material Notification Shade and told him - then he sent me a code for this app.

But, does anyone else have experience with this app ****ing up their battery life?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] sefrcoko:
Never used it myself but if it was removed from Play Store like that it sounds shady...wouldn't be surprised if it was poorly optimized, leading to excessive drain.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Dankees:
I turned it off (didn't fully uninstall it) and I turned off all of its permissions. Is it still going to damage my phone? Is the damage now irrevocable?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] sefrcoko:
I would probably just uninstall that app completely and test from there (BUT keep in mind that if it's been removed from the Play Store, then you won't be able to use it again unless you have the apk to re-install it).

If the problem persists, then maybe it's not that app after all and it's something else. If you can't identify the specific problem or app, then you can always do a factory reset as a last resort. I don't think your phone is damaged, just a rogue apps or permissions.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Dankees:
Well, it's now back again.

I turned it on and let my phone sit, unused, for one hour. My battery dropped 5%.

I turned it off and let my phone sit, unused, for one hour. My battery dropped 2%.

So, is it safe to say this is the culprit?

I have AccuBattery - would that tell me something or BetterBatteryStats would tell me better?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] sefrcoko:
An hour isn't really much time, so hard to say for sure. Try it for a day at least and see if the problem is really solved. Sounds like that app was likely causing drain though. Accubattery is fine, there's also GSAM, etc.

Due to an update bricking my phone hardcore I found this solution. Please keep in mind my phone's state of function.

BootLoop into erecovery

TWRP was not working

*Have access to FASTBOOT with Bootloader=Unlocked and FRP=Unlocked

1. You must have access to FASTBOOT with Bootloader and FRP Unlocked.

To get to FASTBOOT you need to have a USB cable hooked up to a Windows PC and at the ready.

Turn off the phone and make sure it is disconnected from the charging cable.

Now turn on the phone by holding down the Volume (-) and Power Button Simultaneously.

*Important* As soon as you feel the phone vibrate you must put in the USB cable attached to the PC.

At this point you should be at the FASTBOOT screen.

2. Download the following File and extract it to a folder on the Desktop. 1.2GB in size.

https://mega.nz/#!rAlSBQ7B!zI21XTb_0IrYsD3hBGdn8cYhjK9oh-WXecWuDbkJxl8

3. Now start up the Terminal in Windows (start, Run, then type "CMD" ).

Now change your directory so that your inside the fold you just created from unzipping the downloaded file.

4. Execute the following commands one at a time.

fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk RECOVERY_RAMDIS.img

fastboot flash ramdisk RAMDISK.img

fastboot flash kernel KERNEL.img

fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk Twrp_p10_lite_0.5_Pretoriano8.img

fastboot reboot

This should fix the issue.

Still getting bootlooped to erecovery. Not sure if I am missing any step or my phone just bricked AF.

I am using BND-L34/Huawei SE bought from Amazon US.

Update(12/24):

So I finally got my Mate SE working after 3 month of bricked mode and countless of tries to get it un-bricked. I bricked my phone by rooting it/flashing RROS Rom then attempting to go back to EMUI.

Hi, I REALLY need help, I bought a new Note 9 N960F. I was playing around with some ROMS and after I flashed the unofficial Lineage ROM my phone boots forever. I have no way to power off the device, if I could I could just flash a different ROM, but I have a no way to get into recovery mode. Soft resetting my device doesnt help either it just starts the boot again. I own the Exynos model. Someone PLEASE help me!!​
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] bober10113:
the bootloader is looping and not acctualy shutting down. that's why you cant go back in twrp.. well you can but you think that you cant.

either wait till it runs out of battery (once it's dead charge it for 10 mins then go to recovery directly) or if you're quick enough:

hold the combination buttons to shut it down( bxb + vol down + pwr) for about 4 or 5 seconds and switch quickly to the recovery position( bxb + vol up + pwr ) rince and repeat. eventually you'll get the timing right.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] sandman7793:

D/L this app from the Google Play Store (Phone INFO) :

In the general section, if it says anything but Knox 0x0,you've been sold a previously owned/used phone.

There's also a refurbishment check in the app as well, but,that alone isn't an indication of the real condition, just more information to arm yourself with on a warranty/return claim if it does indicate that the phone has been refurbished.

Not really as its when phone boots up after the Samsung logo it's a black screen with a coloured green/yellow ish padlock that turns I'n animation and it appears to look like a unlocked padlock then phone just starts up normally after 20s or so on that animation , from previous experience going back to older devices it normally means unlocked bootloader but since I've only had phone couple days and not attempted any unlock or modifications I just assumed it mean its factory sim unlocked, tia

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] bober10113:
but I mean do you remember enrolling in Knox upon doing initial setup?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Jake.S:
If you see a pad lock opening and a green and a blue lines spinning around the pad lock on boot, then it means its decrypting your data. It does not mean your bootloader is unlocked. This animation is normal since it's called secure boot, It can be disabled in your settings. This is a safety feature if you want to avoid any unauthorized to gain access to your data.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] bober10113:
did you try the magisk module:

liboemcrypto.so disabler

Description

Apps that use liboemcrypto.so to play content protected by DRM, such as Netflix and My5, will fail when playback is attempted on a rooted device. This Magisk module masks liboemcrypto.so with a zero byte replacement.

FAQ

Q. Can't I just delete or rename liboemcrypto.so to achieve the same effect?

A. You can, but then you will have a modified /system partition. The beauty of using a Magisk module is that no actual changes are made to your file system.

Problems

A consequence of using this module is that Widevine DRM will fall back to using L3 instead of L1, which means that Netflix will not display content in HD or higher quality, regardless of your subscription type. Of course, without this module, Netflix will not play at all on a rooted device. If this is important to you, you will need to unroot your device.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] rezapatel:
Yep that works, but it doesn't play HD and also huge battery drain while casting through the app.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RickBlacker:
Hi all. I did try to find an answer before posting, guess I just didn't find what I was looking for

A few years ago I rooted my Dell Venu 8 tablet. It ran fine, I stopped using it for a long time and it just sat. A couple months ago I charged it up and booted into it. I booted up, but was VERY slow to respond to anything. I let it sit again for several months. This time however, it won't boot up.

When I try to do a factory restore by holding down the power button and volume down button, it will put me in the factory restore option. I use the volume keys to change the boot option to RECOVERY MODE. When the recovery boot screen is up, I see this list of things showing at the bottom of the screen.

FASTBOOT MODE

PRODCUTE _NAME - BB

VARIAT - Venu 8 7840

HW_VERSION - Unknown

BOOTLOADER VERSION - Unknown

IFWI VERSION - 0004.FD1F

SERIAL NUMBER - ….

SIGNING - unknown

SECURE_BOOT - unknown

DEVICE STATE - locked

FASTBOOT CMD WAITING

I hit the power button to tell it to start the process of restoring. It reboots shows a little android with it's chest cover open with a little red warning triangle. It sits there for a while doing nothing visible on the screen, then after a few minutes, reboots, tries to load, and then just hangs again where it always hangs.

At this point I really don't know if my device is hanging because of the rooting software or possible hardware issue. Also, not sure if the restore is really restoring it or not because of the DEVICE STATE - locked message .

Any help will be greatly appreciated!!!

Thanks
