[Moto Z2 Play  Questions & Answers] Artim_96:
Well, first of all it's plain impossible to root a Verizon device if you can't figure out a way to guess the unlock code. The times that Android itself could be rooted without something like an unlocked bootloader are long ago and methods through download modes are too difficult.

Second of all, as long as you didn't enable some very Experimental debugging feature in developer settings it's impossible that log files could clogg your memory, at least if you don't use to have your memory up to 99% full to begin with.

So either you have some app that downloads a huge amount of data that you are not aware of or some some app is going crazy in the background (since a full storage would only be something that you will notice when you get according notifications).

So you first of all have to figure out what actually bugs down your devices performance.

Disabled anything you might have enabled on developer options

Monitor apps RAM usage from dev options -> memory and running services. I know people always say unused RAM is wasted RAM, but what that small minded view leaves out of that you can find apps going crazy when they use a huge/unusual amount of RAM

See if you can find out how much memory is used by what data. Even though the systems view is broken on pretty much any Moto ROM, there should be Apps that are able to display that.

Find apps wasting battery with apps like GSam battery monitor, another way to find apps and process going crazy

Keep in mind you might have a hardware issue. If you have faulty memory it's possible you won't be able to fix it. That can only be fixed by formatting partitions to detect and disable faulty flash cells. I'm not sure if factory reset can do that and what you can achieve with stock recovery mode
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] proyect_nemesis:
Hi Guys, my best friend gave me his Samsung S7 edge Canadian version (FIDO). How this movil is Free for all companies. I changed the ROM to XAC but it is still in French / English. Searching on the internet, it seems that officially there is no original Free ROM in Spanish for this version of the SM-G930W8...

So... my question is: If I put a hacked ROM, can I do it? any recommendation for this? What steps should I follow?

Thank you, best regards!

I remember getting this once on a different phone. I can't remember exactly how to fix it but try a full wipe (Format Data). I'm not sure this will fix it so ONLY do it if you're okay with losing your data or get a confirmation

[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Lakshay Sethi:
Hello

I just got a refurbished Moto Z2 force. The screen has scratches on the topmost layer. I'm not able to get a hold of the shattershield lens and I've a few questions regarding what I should be doing further.

1. Can I replace the outermost layer with a spigen screen protector?

2. After peeling of the outermost layer, can I clean the residue of the adhesive with rubbing alcohol?

Any help will be appreciated.

Thank you.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] rafaelrfq:
Hello,

1. Yes, you can use any screen protector you want as long as fits the device.

2. I have not tried alcohol but I think it won't work, try some "Goo Gone" and you should be able to clean the residue off your screen. That is the method I used. You may need a heating gun to remove the shattershield, as the adhesive is very strong and won't come off easily.

[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] sounreal:
I removed mine without a hot air gun. I would advise no one attempt to do it without a hot air gun. Goo gone, credit card and my finger did the trick to remove the in he says. When I initially saw all of the adhesive on my screen I started looking for a new phone.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] fast69mopar:
I finally decided I was tired of the scratches and some deep gouge marks in my shatterproof shield. I purchased a Mr. Shield 2-Pack of tempered glass screen protectors and installed one last night. I did use a goo-gone type of adhesive remover to rid the screen of the leftover adhesive and then used alcohol to do a final cleaning before installation of the tempered glass screen protector. I only wish I would have done it sooner.

Here is the Mr. Shield tempered glass screen protector on Amazon.

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Dennis@@:
Good evening,

the problem my be known, but till now, I have not found a thread where a solution is presented. Now let's dive into my problem. Some days ago, I experienced the problem, that I am frequently using my network signal. Till that time, I was using the Firmware version 10.0.6 and the RR 7.0.1. I thought, maybe an Firmware update would resolve this issue, and I flashed the Firmware version 10.0.7 but the issued did not get fixed.

Yesterday I did an clean install of the ROM with the following steps: Firmware 10.0.7->ROM RR7.0.1->recovery TWPR->reboot recovery->Gapps->Magdisk->reboot system but even now I'm loosing my network signal from time to time. Is there an solution for this problem? Tomorrow I want install the SyberiaROM in order to verify if the problem is still present.

What could be reason for this problem? I already checked my IMEI numbers and both are matching with the sticker on the phone. Could it be, that my SIM tray is defect?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] ccalixtro:
I had that problem and tested everything... Had to change my service provider to get stable signal.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] mitux:
You can try installing stock Pie, then downgrading to stock Oreo. If signal is good on Oreo, it is not a hardware issue. But if issue is still there, try changing your carreer. Still don't work? Bring your phone to the service center.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Lorwik:
Since January I am having the same problem, I can not make calls or receive them either.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Dennis@@:
After I installed the ROM clean the problem is still present. When I lose my signal, I can hit the airplane toggle twice and then I get my signal back. It's not really an workaround.
[HTC Excalibur] kesparate:
ok so the insurance company has offer me a choice of the wizard or the excaliber for my now defunct HP6315. my immediate impulse is to go with the wizard, but i am aware that it has durability issues. can the excaliber be made to function similarly? i think i would miss the touch screen a lot, and i know the wizard has boat loads of memory by comparison. thoughts...?
[HTC Excalibur] Rip Syntaxx:
Umm...since you're in an Excalibur forum, I think you know our policy. :)
[HTC Excalibur] kesparate:
yeah and the durability concern is a serious enough issue to bias your way, but can you make me feel really smart for going for it...?
[HTC Excalibur] Rip Syntaxx:
To be honest, I know next-to-nothing about the Wizard. If you search through these threads you'll realize the extent to which the Excalibur is customizable. There are SO many new applications and programs being created by the developers in this forum--it's unreal. Hopefully I will get to the point where I am submitting apps of my own, but for right now I'll reap the benefits of having these experts here to help!
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Colombino:
Hello guys,

I have a Xiaomi Redmi Note 4x with 4GB of RAM, 64GB storage and a Helio X20 CPU. The performance on the phone is great but the battery life is horrible. The battery gets drained on idle within a few hours. I just unplugged it from the charger and it lost 10% with turned off wifi and mobile internet. I literally only left it on the table and when I checked back it was 10% down...

I thought it might be the old battery, so I ordered a new original one from France, which looks and feels legit. After replacing the battery I kept having the exact same issues. No improvements at all. I have no idea whats going on. The battery life is only good when I'm in airplane mode, but then my phone is useless. I turned off GPS, sync, turned on the battery saver, I have even Greenify installed, disabled lots of background apps. Nothing helped. This is driving me crazy, because I cant go anywhere without my powerbank. The phone has a 4000mAh battery that dies within 3-4 hours.

Could it be possible that this is caused by MIUI or something in the background that is constantly connecting to the internet? Because the battery could last for days when I'm in Airplane mode. The phone has also a very long screen on time while in Airplane mode. I think it can last for hours with the screen turned on as long as the airplane mode is turned on. As soon as I connect to any kind of network the battery starts draining really fast.

Here is a small list of applications that I have installed on the phone:

Facebook Messenger (no FB app)

Edge

Spotify

Discord

Viber

Instagram

Firefox

Onedrive

Outlook

Ebay

etc.

I was thinking of flashing a custom ROM on it, but there are not many options. Unlike the Snapdragon Variant, my phone doesn't seem to be supported by many main custom ROM developers like Lineage. I don't even know how to look for a ROM, because most ROMs are for the Redmi Note 4 (without the "x"). Does anyone know if the Redmi Note 4x (MTK) is using the same chipset like a Redmi Note 4 (MTK)? Both have the same codename "Nikel".

Any help would be MUCH appreciated!
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] zandro85:
I don't trust anything with Facebook in the name and expecially messengers. Most of them suck a lot of memory and will constantly be checking on the Internet. I assume you have mobile data turned on. That in itself will pull down a battery especially if you have a lot of apps in the background that want to check in often and it looks like you do.

You can try to force stop some of those apps but some will restart theirselves almost immediately after a force stop. If you are rooted you could use Rom Toolbox or a similar app to 'freeze' them until you need them. You can also use an app like "4G (gigabyte) Ram Memory booster" to clear memory although some apps as I mentioned will come right back.

If you don't have all bars showing for your cellular your phone may be raising the power output levels accordingly and thus if you only have 1 or 2 bars your power being used can be many times higher for any apps that connect to the Internet.

You can also find apps that will prevent other apps from starting up until you open them. "Advanced Permission Manager" is a good one although it sometimes won't work on certain apps.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] privatewarrior1:
My Oneplus 6T is rooted. I tend to keep my wifi adapter turned off to save battery life. Few days after I purchased the phone, I noticed that when I turn off wifi, as soon as I lock the phone then unlock it, the wifi toggle will automatically turn back on. :(

After much research, I went to wifi settings and unchecked all of the following:

Turn on WiFi automatically

Smart wifi switcher

scanning always available

Open network notification

Wifi-Scanning (for apps)​

And in the location settings, I changed (limited) location sharing with apps and stopped sharing with Google to avoid having the wifi adapter turning on. Yet the wifi still does, and very quickly after I turn it off.

BTW, My phone is running OxygenOS 9.0.1.

Any ideas please on how to solve this?
