Most of us know what a fone screen looks like, so don't confuse the issue [emoji6]
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] barguybrady:
Yes, it is.

I get the same screen whenever I boot up.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] rosedog:
I have loved the Material Black theme for awhile now. Unfortunately Samsung has broken it piece by piece.

First was the email update. Once updated it went back to being white. I tried reapplying the theme but it does not work. Then I tried other themes and still cannot get it to work.

Then came the PIE update, blah. Night mode seems to be the only thing I can use to make it somewhat close to what it used to be with the Material Black theme.

Can anyone recommend a theme from the store that will do what Material Black used to do?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Jammol:
The theme creator just needs the update the theme for the new changes. I'm using Oreo Black for now.

I'm trying to take a photo when starburst enabled in scene optimizer but the starts effect only before I capture the photo, i can also see it on the motion photo before the actual capture.

See attachments, the first is the photo and the second captured from the motion photo
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] vimto25:
I've had my device for a day now and I was worried at first weather the 3300mah battery would last a day's use and I can gladly say this device is optimised very well.

With 4hours of on screen time with 50% battery left this device has met my expectations and further.

I've hardly come of this phone all day.

So for me it's a thumps up if anyone is worried about battery life it should be perfectly fine for a day+ use.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] cd993:
I've actually so far experienced the opposite :( today I had under 3 hours SOT and was at around 35%, though I did notice that high accuracy was enabled as well as WiFi scanning.

Will continue to monitor....
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] potblack2win:
Screen on Time is a meaningless figure to judge battery life.

For instance - Browsing the web will drain way more battery life than watching a YouTube video
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] *justintime*:
Th thing is with the MI9 auto brightness is way to aggressive.

If you use lot of outside it will drain lot faster than indoors.

Indoors 6 till 7 hours SOT no problem. Lot of outside 5 till 6 hours or. Something like that.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] cd993:
I've had it on manual :(

What I have noticed is when I was outdoors, there was some sort of outdoor mode being activated, so not the auto brightness but the automatic contrast. Got it in standard now and so will see how tomorrow on a full charge. Still though, I could swear that colours (the black theme on my SwiftKey keyboard) were adjusting in bright sunlight.

Will indeed keep an eye on this, but yeah so far battery is a let down, and that has been with full 4g signal, Bluetooth off etc
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] :
A friend sell his Mi9 after 3 days. With 2 sim cards and 50/50 wifi/lte he get about ~5h SOT without gaming and youtube after <1day.

With Youtube he can get easy 8h SOT but thats normal for Amoled.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] *justintime*:
Yes that auto contrast setting I have noticed too. Very strange. I can't get it off either.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] cd993:
I'm gonna report it as a bug.

Also as Cell Standby drain is high, I've just adjusted this setting, found here:

https://xdaforums.com/mi-8/how-to/fix-battery-drain-mobile-standby-t3883840/page1
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] *justintime*:
To add at my SOT I use the MI9 in dark mode all the time.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] cd993:
Yeah me too...

I've changed those network so will see how well my device does today.

---------- Post added at 11:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:54 AM ----------

Quick update: seems better already since i changed those settings. Got 30 mins SOT and still at 95%.

Will see how the rest of the day goes!
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] stokks:
Hi,

I think something is wrong with the Cell standby usage.

I tried the fix for disabling Chinese antennas, but still it's like this.

https://imgur.com/a/EZD8Xmt

I'm on China version (I bought the mobile in China actually).

Any advice? Shall I switch to Global?

And it looks like that auto brightness seems to consume more battery than manual, is it just for me or something for more people?
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] cd993:
I too had the bad drain but switching to LTE/WCDMA helped me so far I think.

I'm at 60% 2 hours SOT and I've been taking lots of photos, such switching that setting helped lots!
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] vimto25:
My brightness is on auto and seems to adapt pretty well I thought.

WiFi scanning is off.

And I don't have dark mode enabled.

Not much gaming tho but YouTube streaming.

Coming from OnePlus 6t and pixel 3 I'm doing the same things but noticing better battery life so for the 3300mah I think it's doing pretty well indeed I'm very satisfied
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] py_martinez:
I never use auto brightness except when I want to use my phone in full sun (beach..) to activate the boost brightness.

My sot is 6 hours by day. Very good (level of the $9 /$9 plus).

[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] krouri:
But on the link it said the settings go back after restart of the phone.

Is this not happening with the Mi9?
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] MysteriousStranger:
It does. Hopefully it will get fixed in a future update in GLOBAL roms...
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] redmyth79:
I have just updated to Global 10.2.26.0 ROM from 10.2.24.0 and I'm getting over 9hrs screen on time! I'm getting over 17-20 hrs with that screen on time so I would say it's doing great! I watch a good bit of movies and YouTube on it as well as do a lot of pictures and video. Do I do use it rather hard and get those numbers still!
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] Gokh:
Im on a PFAEUXM rom, i've found that the battery life is good when you are using the phone, i'm geussing the screen and the CPU are really efficient, but the standby drain when i don't use the phone is pretty bad..
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] alese13:
I get 6 hrs sot on 10.2.26.0 ?

What settings do u use? Whats your secret?
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] redmyth79:
Dude I just got 31hrs with 6hrs and 23 min SOT and I didnt even let it die. I use a lot of photography, video 4k@30. I also watch a lot of movies and in-between I do a good bit of YouTube or Twitter.

I can get over 9hrs easy anytime. If I just got for maximum SOT I've passed 11hrs many times and never ran the Mi 9 dead. I mean sometimes it's within a few % but I always put it back on charge if that's the case.

I leave the brightness on auto but it seems I always have to go in the menu and push it higher to my liking.

Now understand this. This is mostly indoors except for when I'm shooting video. I never take it off auto brightness, I just push it up. I have it on increased contrast. Nothing more. I optimize it at least once a day and I clean my Cached file daily. That is the extent of what I do. I have accubattery app on it so I watch to make sure it truly is at 100% before taking it off.

I have no issues with SOT, oh and I always have WiFi on as well.

You say you get 6hrs but only 6hrs SOT with no combined time with it?
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] zbysogi:
Hi guys. Im really surprised by the results you guys are having with the mi9 SOT.

I received a new battery and replaced it a week ago and I can see a bit of an improvement (almost 3h sot before, now 4h) but it's only on WiFi reckon it won't make 2h on data. I have all the necessary ADB tweaks made and my phone is rooted. I do have some wakelocks during standby time according to BetterBatteryStats so I reckon they drain th battery during the day as well. Dont know what else to do :/ any ideas?

EDIT:

i did a battery calibration. I discharged the battery dead. Checked if it's in fact dead and charged it full but with the phone turned off. After that it lost 3% during te night drain (need to work on that) but during the day it is significantly better. Yesterday I had 50% battery and not even 2h SOT, today I have 70% batter ant already 2h 10min SOT. Gonna repeat the calibration one or two more times and check if anything improves further.

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] klecki:
Hey!

I've been using my Mate 20 Pro for quite some time (newest software with security updates from 1st January '19). Few days ago I plugged my phone to the charger only to notice that it was not charged in the morning. So I connected it to original Huawei supercharger and the only thing that phone shows is:

Normal charging for 1s, supercharging for 2s, no charging for 1s, normal charging for 1s and so on... And it is not really charging quickly. The only way I can get power to my phone effectively is using wireless charger. Any ideas why the supercharge is not working?

Tried troubleshooting:

I booted it in the safe mode - same issue

Different cable - same

Different charger (not supercharger) - showing that it's charging but the percentage is not increasing

Wireless charger - works
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] side_flip15:
I think you might charged it with a wet port?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] klecki:
I would thought so, but the phone did not get wet. Even if the humidity got into the port somehow, shouldn't it come back to normal? (And it's not after 2 days)
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] Darkat70:
I had trouble with Mate 9 last year, my partner put a different Cable in and it said there was moisture, I put the cable into my Mate 9, gave her my cable and they both worked fine. Odd.

Then my daughter took my charger and cable attached to S9+ when I got it back my phone wouldn't charge. I had to charge my phone with a different one, the next time I came to charge tried it again it worked but only at slow speed, lost the fast charge somehow.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] side_flip15:
Similar thing happened to my S8. It stops fast charging and only charged slowly. But went back to fast charging after a few days of not charging via cable.

I suggest don't use wired charging for a few days and let it completely dry. Hope the damage is not permanent.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] zeroXTC:
My mate has a mate 20 pro that did exactly this. It was ubder warranty and he put it in for repair. When he got it back, he was told the charging port on his device had some kind of short (maybe water) and they had to exchange that part in the phone. And now it works.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] klecki:
Here is an update for others with similar problem:

I additionally tried:

- Clearing Cache partition

- Factory reset

No change...

I went yesterday to Huawei Service Center and they replaced USB port, motherboard(!) and camera modules(probably because they had motherboard with cameras already). Everything was covered by warranty.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] AlMekhlafy:
Hi did you lost your data after that ?

As I've mate 10 pro suddenly charging only as normal charge "not super or even fast" also not recognized by my PC when plugging it

BR
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] klecki:
I did not lose any data. Only the port was changed, but it is always better to do a backup (even online if your computer does not recognize it) just in case.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] Dobridin:
Hello, I have problems with streaming subtitles on my Philips Android TV. The model is 32PFS6402/12 running Android 7.1.2.. Everything was fine until a week ago. I was using ES File Manager and MX player. The source is WD MyCloud. The subtitles ran perfectly as long as the name of the sub file was the same. For a week now not a single subtitle work on it, even on movies that were good before. I have an LG TV on which the subs works fine from the cloud. I tried reseting the TV and restarting the cloud without success. I tried VLC player as well but with no result. Could it be a DLNA problem and is there a solution. Thanks.
[NFC Hacking] james5453545:
Im trying to copy debit/credit card and clone it on android or blank card, for payy pass and pay wave use.

Can somebody help

Will pay
[NFC Hacking] Remenyo:
I think that only a part of your plan is possible.

Some banks, allow some of their cards to be emulated on some Android phones. The tech is called

Host-based card emulation

, Google it if you are interested in the details.

Just find your bank's app on the Play store, or ask them if they support contactless mobile payments, and they will help in the first part of your question.

I think this is not the appropriate platform to ask the second question, due its questionable legality.

If your situation allows, I highly encourage you to ask your bank about the price of more cards per account.

Even if card copying is possible, It definitely needs special hardware, so it will be cheaper, and easier to get one from the bank :)

I recently Upgraded from a iPhone 7 to a Galaxy Note 9 and I've been wondering.. How many people unironically use Bixby. I've noticed in my 4 month's of owning my phone I've never really used Bixby and she's seemed like more of a nuisance rather than any help. And I find the concept of talking to any kind of virtual assistant kinda cringe. Thoughts?

Also if anybody could recommend a good Non Root Bixby button remapper I would greatly appreciate it!

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] galaxys:
Yep, mine is remapped to launching Pandora music app...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Jammol:
I use Bixby everyday. In the morning I have a command where I simply say good morning and she runs preset tasks for me, including giving me weather alerts(rocky mountains) and read top headlines for the day. Also got one for when I arrive to work, and ones depending on what type of work I'll be doing that day.

Example, when I'm building print server queues, I like to keep my screen Timeout higher, bluetooth with some music, do not disturb on, and some other settings. Instead of me going through and doing all that, I just tell her "Print Queues," and she changes everything.

I do have the one button click remap to a command for Google Assistant but that's for searching for anything weirdly internet related.

I used to hate the idea of Bixby because I was so used to Google, but when I realized all the things I can use her for if I just took the time to learn it, I've been hooked ever since. ??

Sidebar: I even got one for my kid for Netflix whenever she wants to watch Little Einsteins!!! ?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] terpi74:

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] avatar_ro:
NO! I do not use it all, I have remapped it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] high_voltage:
Nope, they even removed 2/3 of the features/commands with bixby 2.0 that were presented in bixby 1.0 and the funny part is that they are still listed in the manual. Useful things like "split screen" command/etc. All the phone control is removed and this was the only real useful part of bixby. Removing the deep integration is leaving the assistant with nothing over google one, just a 1/10 features copy that will fail to understand you 2/3rds of the time.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Jammol:
It's because of the changes to Android? I don't really see them bringing those features back though. I got mad when I first saw that they removed a lot of the device control features.

Conspiracy me thinks, they removed them from Bixby because of the permission changes to Android Pie, and they want people to keep buying their devices, they nuked Bixby as a whole instead of having the Pie folks having less stuff than Oreo? Don't know....conspiracy.?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] high_voltage:
Dunno why, but the fact is that 2.0 can't do a lot that 1.0 can... instead of improving and integrate it even deeper into the system, they stripped it. Android is open source project... there are some restrictions, but I am pretty sure non effects bixby functionality or atleast samsung can be transparent on why. On some of them bixby says "I don't support that yet, but I am learning constantly new things", so there is that - it recognise the old commands, but refuse to execute them.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] pcriz:
It was killing me that it couldn't recognize the spelling of my old lady's name and on my note 8 it had a bad habit of not immediately recognizing my voice but getting triggered by random audio from my TV.

Since then I moved away from bixby and I alternate between Samsung and something else so GA has always been my go to since it's not OEM specific.

Nope my alexa is my main ***** and google is my doorbell chime. Bixby is awful and needs dropping.

Bixby is alright. She's definitely smarter than siri, but waaaaay slower.

I don't use Bixby. Might start using it when I get my Bsc in how to use Bixby.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Deleted member 7436581:
I used it for a couple of weeks when I first got my Note 9. I was impressed with the complex phone tasks I could trigger with just a few words that I programed for them. Something GA cannot come near to doing. But for other areas where GA shines, that's where Bixby falls short.

After those short weeks I started using bxActions because I found that having extra abilities through remapping of the Bixby and volume buttons was more valuable than using Bixby for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] alher591:
bixi command can set an alarm past 24 hours. google assistant cant.. still not stopping me from using bxactions pro and reassigning to assistant and google now.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nir36:
Ok i give up. I have searched for a solution on how to add other languages to picsel browser (other than english) but can't find anything. someone posted he found a way to use hebrew but it's not even close to working.

i also emailed the picsel management team and they told me there aren't any language packs available for the program.

also, adding fonts to the fonts folder doesn't help... only for specific webpages.

PDF's and other webpages are jibbrish.

now as this is a development section.. i'm sure that Picsel would be thankful moneywise to anyone who developes language packs for them... so maybe someone should... i of course... will buy the language pack (if it supports hebrew :)) from whoever creates it.

Thank you.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] larsuck:
I gave up long ago...

But I will tell what little information I know pertaining to this:

The Palm version of Picsel does have language packs (the one I saw was for Chinese/Japanese), but I was not able to make it work with the PPC version.

Some years ago, there is (or was) a version of Picsel made for Japanese use, but I have never been able to find this. It was preinstalled on Musea PocketPCs from the Japanese mobile provider Docomo. Some screenshots are attached.

I find it unlikely that it is impossible to select different language packs for Picsel browser because it does have the option. However, I believe Picsel is pretty much an abandoned project, so it could prove impossible to make these language packs.

Perhaps I am just pessimistic.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nir36:
the selection of encoding doesn't mean much eventually... and from what i know.. picsel are working full time.. they're implementing the browser and other software into company PPC's as a built in browser instead of internet explorer... some hightech companies in israel are using it.

japanese/chinese wouldn't help me but thanks :)

where does it have the option?

[Nokia 9 PureView Questions & Answers] mudnightoil:
Since HMD / Nokia said that they'd begin offering bootloader unlocks on a selection of their devices, very little has happened, and consequently, very little if any development or popularity on XDA or among other tinkerers or power users has followed.

The 9 is potentially a very attractive device, and I've ordered one on the potential strength of the camera and general value proposition, even if I'd rather the screen weren't so small (6" 18:9 is tiny - given tall aspects' narrowness and poor usability).

I'm hoping they'll do the right thing here, but if they don't, I can't see myself keeping it, and would struggle to recommend it or other Nokia devices to anyone.
