[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 / 5 Plus Questions & Answers] Kaanarchy:
i enabled gps and no problems with wifi while screen is locked. Tested it for 2 days. (9.4.11 firmware, twrp 3.3.0, gapps mini, resurrection remix and viper both works fine so other ones should too.)
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 / 5 Plus Questions & Answers] yodanilo:
hi, i actually have the opposite problem. i want to my wifi to go off auto when the phone goes off (the screen) not the mobile data but the wifi so i can always have connection but save battery with the wifi.

My phone's battery seems to barely get to 12 or 14 hs in a normal (to low) use. and ending the day with no battery at all, i had a samsung that get me to the night with 50% or even more most days. and i remember to have the option on wifi setting to turn wifi off when phone sleeps to save battery. any suggetions?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 / 5 Plus Questions & Answers] lymond:
Hi, I have a Samsung S5, however, I think that it's a problem universal to a lot of Android phones (6 months+ googling on issues that ultimately seem to be caused by the wifi being switched off and going through xda threads for so many different phones). Eventually I found that my (CM based) ROM installation (Resurrection Remix 7.02) seems to be missing (or more likely has dispersed the relevant files into other locations) the /system/csc folder.

I found a thread on android central from a user alexceltare2 suggesting a line to add to /system/csc/others.xml (or features.xml if that exists) which is:

<CscFeature_Wifi_SupportAutoReconnect>TRUE</CscFeature_Wifi_SupportAutoReconnect>

I added this folder from an old ROM installation I happened to have (and modified the file content to remove the old ROM references) with a root file explorer to get the csc folder, added that line to my now existing features.xml file, rebooted and found I went from wifi sleeping after ~15 minutes or so to 7+ hours of wifi stability.

I don't know whether this helps anybody but I haven't found many references to missing csc folders or the features/other.xml files.

Try using CAF.

I used to have that problem on pie roms, have you tried a CAF variant? Or a CAF kernel for that matter, I'm on Pixel Experience Q BETA with STRIX CAF Kernel rigth now and wifi keeps connected most of the time. ;)

PixelExperienceCAF of March had the best battery and lest bugs I can remember. Give it a try.

Hi! I'm experiencing the same with a Redmi Note 8 Pro. Had to install Terminal Emulator and choose "Take WifiLock" in the menu. This is keeping Wi-Fi alive when phone is sleeping. The app "Best WiFi Keeper" also worked for me.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mp884:
Hi Guys,

I would like to install an app on my Galaxy Note 4, Android 4.4.4 (rooted), which is released by the developer only for Android 5.0 and above. Have decompiled the app (Polaroid Zip) and in the apktool.yml the minSDK set to 15 (in AndroidManifest.xml it was not available) and then compiled and signed. I can now install the app but it does not start. Error message: Polaroid Zip stopped. Attached is a screenshot of LogCat.

What do I have to do to get the app up and running?

I am not an expert in this field. But maybe I can do it with help.

Many Thanks.

Marco

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] osotech:
Hi, if i didn't post that in the right section feel free to tell me and move it at the right place.

I have a stock S7 (sm-g930w8) for two years and it's time to choose if I replace it or not (if not I get a new phone for my daughter).

I still love my S7 and for what I've found the difference between him and the S9 are not that big. Other phone I could get are the P20 pro, pixel 3 LG G7 and thé Sony Xperia XZ1.

My S7 is in a otterbox symmetry and a glass screen protector and I never managed to break it (i drop it a couple of times a week) and I'm afraid that a newer phone will be less sturdy.

Should I keep it for another two years or replace it?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] kpwnApps:
S7 is still a great phone and has a powerful processor in it wich can go upto 2.6 ghz on 2 cores. (Exynos). Bigger phones like the s9 may be more vulnerable to glass damage because of the size. Id prefer to keep it as long its stable
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] cooltt:
There is nothing and I mean NOTHING extraordinary about any device after Sammy 6 period! It's just "oh look at me with my new $1000 phone that does everything my old one did".

So keep the S7, I'm waiting for holographic interface that's when I'll upgrade when I can see a hologram of the person I'm speaking to. Now that will be amazing.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] zooster:
Stick with S7. At least 1 year more until the release of s11, a more refined phone. S10 has bugs and downsides here and there.

In the meantime we'll enjoy new pie roms, because Android pie has been released for note 7 Fe, that has the same hardware, therefore a s10 port will soon come out. It's enough to survive one year more until a more satisfactory phone will be released.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] cooltt:
Your right it's wrong to sell a phone where certain apps will no longer function.

When knox is tripped there's no warning on boot with the S7 only the counter which shows when you boot into download mode so it's not difficult to find out if know is tripped or not. Of course no warranty or service with a know tripped phone from Sammy Sung either.

Samsung pay and lots of banking apps won't run as has been reported on the forum with knox tripped. However some of my banking apps work and some don't, it depends how the banking app makes a secure connection to it's severs.

So aside from them issues there are custom stock firmware where you can flash a custom kernal (Moro kernal really stable with stock) and the phone will look and feel like stock, The Galaxy Project is one such ROM. There are others in the rom section.

In comparison to earlier phone and dependant on Exynos (easy) or Qualcomm (nightmare) hardware, the S7 is no more difficult than the S6,5,4,3,2,1 to mess about with. Straight forward to root and TWRP (Exynos) little bit more difficult on Qualcom. But if you going o sell it i'd list it with knox tripped because they're going for not much anyway, $100 - 150.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] cooltt:
With an S7 the knox trip is an eMMC so it's hardware trip not software which makes it very difficult to get around. When the S7 boots it looks at a firmware file on the boot image before it does anything else to see the knox status. I've seen people claiming to have got Sam Pay working on a knox tripped device but it's very difficult to understand how they've done it and i'm not convinced it's possible myself.

With regards to flashing back to stock, You can always flash the S7 back to stock no matter what you do to it as long as you have Odin and Oreo firmware, so yeah go ahead and install what you want, mess around with kernals, try everything just make sure FRP lock is turned off before doing anything.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Youdoofus:
in the end, its up to you, but it cannot go without saying that the difference in phone has drastically decreased from the time of the galaxy S5 to the S9 than it was from the S to the S5. The change seems to be picking up speed again, so it may not be the wisest thing to upgrade now. The S7 is still a venerable beast. Hard to give ti up if your battery is still good. I rocked my S5 for almost 4 years, so i dont blame anyone for keeping their current handset if its still doing what they need it to.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Molvol:
But what is 100% functional depends on your standpoint. I only buy 100% functional phones, but for me that means they must have unlocked bootloader. So I would gladly take any Samsung with Knox tripped or warranty void - because I would never be able to use it anyway and don't care. My safety and privacy has top priority for me - and convenience is up there as well. So if you want to be safe, just mention it in the sale description - the people who understand won't mind the least or not buy. The opposite is true though - if I want a phone and TWRP is/has been on it I can be sure it could work for me and I don't need to do stupid research if it can be unlocked.

For me it's a selling point!!! Don't worry - it's not "wear" on the phone. Bet hardly anyone is using that anyway, so 95% of people would never notice.

Hi, I have bricked my phone when I tried to flash my stockboot en recovery img files. What happens is that everytime I reboot the phone, it automatically reboots to the bootloader. I can access twrp.

I tried to flash stock firmware myself, but I flashed XT1921-3 instead of XT1922-3 because I couldnt find the right version. Nothing changed. I also tried to flash a GSI ROM and nothing changes there as well. Can someone help me out?

Yes just make a regular payment and when it asks you just choose friends and family on the next screen instead of paying for a service or goods. This way he gets the full amount and PayPal doesn't take any fees out.

[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] ajsmsg78:
I think someone who works at Huawei is providing the codes to these vendors and A) They are trying not to do too many at one time to prevent being caught or B) They got fired for providing the codes and someone else was able to get them before they got caught and also got fired.

I found https://ministryofsolutions.com/huawei-bootloader-unlock-paid-service-html

4 dollars at Ministry, this is true or some fake site to unlock?
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] flatronics:
Why would they need access to your phone to get the unlock code?
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] thiagoserrao:
Well, i think they do it remotely, this is the why i'm asking.

Someone told that MINISTRY is ok, but we really have some good and cheap unlock sellers?

Which are the sellers that we can trust?
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] flatronics:
They are a trusted seller.. some of the folks here got their codes from them but that's by providing the phones IMEI. I guess the codes are stored in a server and sorted base on IMEI.

But this particular way of getting the code that they are offering suggest that they have a tool or program to generate the code... but giving then access to your phone, I'm not sure about than. Unless if you have a fresh empty phone, I guess it's fine.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] ajp558:
That link to Ministry is for older Huawei phones and not the 2018 ones such as the Mate 20 X. It has a link to another web page for the newer phones, and on that page it says the "service is not working" and to "come back later". It stopped working at the same day/time as Funky Huawei, so it looks like they used the same source and that source has now been disabled by Huawei.

So at the moment, and for the foreseeable future the Huawei leak has been stopped and there is no means of getting the bootloader properly unlocked.

[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] speedtripler:
Don't worry, I've also ordered one from China that should be here in a few days (8/256) and I Intend to make a usable phone out of it

This will include purging the chinese apps, replacing the stock launcher and getting Google apps running

Instead of their huawei equivalents :D

Most of which can be done without the bootloader unlock code, and it will likely become available again at some date in the future

I have no idea what software version I will get out of the box but I won't update it to the latest until I figure out what needs to be done
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] filip_pine:
Congrats for your new phone bro. Make sure you Disable the Stock launcher first thing to do , otherwise, you might not be able to remove later if you upgrade to the latest Software Version ( as some users said ). After you Disable the Stock launcher and install your favorite Launcher, then you can update to the latest Software version. Cheers
