I stopped rooting years ago...about android 4.3

Prior to that, even going back to my "pda-phone" days, I use to flash about anything that would come along. My first droid was the Dell Streak 5, then the Galaxy Note 1. Then came droid 4.3 and the Mate 2, which was good and for me, didn't need to be rooted. Now, after work, I rarely pick up the phone unless someone calls me. It's a work "tool" and I just don't bother. Other than Nova Launcher, I just don't screw with them any more.

Wrong, you can use libcrypto disabler to watch HD videos in Netflix. And custom roms do now have working fingerprints. You can hide root from banking apps since Magisk is systemless.

Read this about libcrypto disabler from the developer:

https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/magisk-liboemcrypto-disabler-drm-t3794393

Notice the last paragraph before the change log.

And for the custom roms having working fingerprint sensor, could you recommend any? I'll like to test some of them.

TY!

Last time I rooted was the Note 4. Didn't care to until Google began handicapping Android more and more. The big one for me is killing call recording. Ironically, Google has been working more to copy iOS, an OS which supports call recording. So they're not copying that part of it.

[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] champ784:
I recently reverted back to stock software. As nice as rooting can be, it gets very easy to be addicted to flashing software constantly, and oxygen OS is really the best Android experience these days. My only complaint is the occasional aggressive hibernation in their kernel configuration. But the overall experience is great, and unless you're getting pretty technical on your customizations, stock international software can't be beat!
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] darkfire2040:
So if I just convert from T-Mobile to international can I still have hd Netflix?
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] ducted:
If your bootloader is unlocked, no. Just unlocking the bootloader leads Widevine from L1 (HD content) to L3 (SD content). (This happens only while your bootloader is unlocked, relocking it will raise Widevine to L1 again.)

I don't know if you are using the MSM Tool to convert your phone or if is some sort of rom mix flashed via TWRP, but using MSM tool flashes to stock and then relocks the bootloader, so you will be able to play HD content in Netflix.

You can use any tool like "DevCheck Hardware and System Info" from [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] available at the Play Store to check your Widevine level amongst other useful device info.

Well I switched to international version I think that's as far as I'm going to go
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] antoniobarros:
unlocked? Uhmmm

Hi, I rooted OPO and OP3 ...but in my opinion 6t no need root. Well 6t isn't perfect but no one custom rom or kernel get a perfect performance for this device. A lot of people after unlocked turn on stock in a very short time. Why?

First with Android Pie root procedures are a bit more complex. Need more time. Brick and bootloop are possible more than in the past. And feature like ads blocking no need necessary the root. Ad block in browser, Blokada, Gcam, fingerprint McLaren ecc ecc all working without root. Battery life? My unlocked 6t normally get the same o even more SOT than unlocked devices. So in my opinion root is cool but unlocked is better!
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Sophia92:
I rooted because of adaway but no significant decrease of the number of ads (mainly in games and soptify), I just went back to stock.

Youtube vanced was good, tried and then ignored... Dolby and viper didn't give me ad much as I expected... LKT mod also... so it was not worth to stay rooted when the update arrived. The only thing I left is unlocked bootloader just in case. [MENTION=7544445]antoniobarros[/MENTION] what did you modify to get more SOT? Can you tell me the details?
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] antoniobarros:
Yes, sure. I love equilibrium in use.

I turned off all features and services that I don't use.

Battery restrictions background just for the apps more energivorous .

Dark mode for UI and every apps that support this option.

Sync toggle in quick settings by third party app

that help to prevent highly battery drain (error sync , play services drain ecc ) I just turn on it twice at day.

And I get a phone reboot at the end of battery charge with dash charge working. (soft battery reset)

Browser and apps battery friendly...Kiwi for example.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nicholas W:
I've been trying to figure this out all morning and I was directed here.

Basically, I locked myself out of my phone and I am unable to unlock it. I cannot transfer data from computer to phone or phone to computer without unlocking it first. I cannot move or look at the data without unlocking it first.

I tried downloading the dr. fone unlocker, but that was incompatible with Xperia XA2. I did read the rooting guide, but I didn't see Xperia XA2 listed in the compatible phones section.

As far as I'm aware, this means no data or code can be transferred from computer to phone or phone to computer. Given that, I'm not sure how I could possibly remove the lock screen without losing data, but I'm hoping the tech geniuses on this forum can help. This is so far outside my realm of comprehension, I honestly do not know where to even start. Hopefully somebody else does.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] aishik212:
So once i tried rendering the same video on my rn7 and an asus mp m1 with sd 636.

guess what the sd636 won.

i realised the cpu is being throttled to save battery.

so i took two measurements of the cpu speed wrt time with the help of CPU throttling app with and without miui battery optimisation which is available in the battery saver section of the app info.

here are the results

1)with stock settings

https://ibb.co/k9M0GjH

2) without the stock battery settings:

https://ibb.co/fdKSr7d

to disable this throttling enable no restrictions on the battery saver option

Here is a battery benchmarking app in case you want to benchmark the battery and compare.

What app did you use for measurements?

If I want to measure CPU ,first measure with settings that I have now, after that ,go to battery saver and sett all app to no restriction.

I will se the difrence in CPU with and without battery optimization

When I what to took measurements,I first in battery optimization set app to not optimized, after measurements set all app to optimize.

According your measurements ,the phone working better when is apps not optimized,right?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] aishik212:
no no this is not the correct step

follow the steps below:

1) open settings

2)manage apps

3) click on the app you want to optimise

4) then click on the battery saver option which is below restrict data usage

5) then click on no restrictions
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] tze_vitamin:
Ok, I found all this, I use game that I play Empires and puzzles, set to no restriction.

Now open Thermal throttling and start measurements.

When I finish,I go back to game and battery saver set to optimize and then again do measurements.

Then I will see results?

I thought that this app measurements all application..

How app know that I change game to no restriction?

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] aishik212:
you open that app

click on the start button and let the rear finish

after it is done you'll see a graph and that graph will tell u wheather the phone is being throttled or not

u cannot check the throttling in any other app or games.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] aishik212:
nope the thermal throttling situation is quite bad now.

even the charging gets slower just with the in box cover due to the heating.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] pmcc4watch:
That's unfortunate. I played pubg which is a graphic intense game. When phone becomes hot it makes the game impossible to play. I tried playing again and this time with an electric fan directly blowing n my phone. The result is quite amazing. Just had minimal to no lags if you keep device cool. So if you guys figured out a way to block thermal throttling. It might also cause the phone to heat up so bad. That's why it's always the best to keep your device cool.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] aishik212:
exactly we need to keep it cool to prevent this throttling, I've even posted multiple feedback on their app but no result yet.

Of course you are trading life span of your device to have performance. But mine doesn't get that hot, so I'll keep it. I play onmyoji arena at the lowest settings and still have frame drops (without temod), unacceptable.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] vexa:
Well....

let me tell you something: most electronic devices are working very well within 60-80c. trust me. Even most PC processors (CPU and GPU) working fine on 90c++

but xiaomi (and other smartphone makers) won't allow the device temp to get more than 50c, because:

1. xiaomi promises longer battery life, a cpu that performs at 100% all the time not only raises the temp, but also consumes plenty of power. So xiaomi be like "aight let's restrict the cpu usage so users won't rage over the short battery life"

2. higher temperature makes the device unpleasant to handle. if you play pubg for 10 mins and your device feels kinda hot, you'd stop playing and jump into Facebook immediately to write 2-3 paragraphs of "DON'T BUY XIAOMI PRODUCTS ITS A TRASH" or something like that, or telling your friends to avoid xiaomi products because it "feels" too hot.

in the end it's a marketing stuff. xiaomi (and other tech companies) don't wanna lose their customers so they'll try to make you feel more comfortable with longer battery life and cooler device temperature; although you wont be able to experience your device's true potential.

FYI, I bought redmi note 3 in mid 2016, installed thermal-mod, played games like hell until it's getting too hot to handle (like 70-80c CPU) then I turned off the screen, put it in front of my fan for 10-15 mins and play games again once the temp is low enough, and I did that repeatedly for years. Now I revert everything back to it's stock rom, gave it to my mom, and she has been using it since April with no complain. everything is working fine.

So, if you ask me, yes. use a thermod. your device would be fine. it would be slightly warmer than stock, battery life would be shortened, but that's the only way to unleash the real power of SD660.

just make sure to stop if it feels too hot to handle.

----

BTW here's a pretty safe thermal mod:

-disable hotplug

-disable charge limit (enjoy fast charger)

-throttling begin on 62°C (still a really safe temp), under clocks cpu to 1958MHz (enjoy heavy games)

flash it on magisk and have yourself some extra FPS.

all credits goes to my friend Jordy.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] tze_vitamin:
I need root to install this thermal mode?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] vexa:
Yes, it's a magisk module, you need magisk to use that.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Konduity:
Not to be disrespectful, but this is so f dumb. Sure, I don't doubt the processor is capable of operating at 60°C, but the point of not allowing it to do so is that it'd greatly decrease the battery lifespan.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] vexa:
all I know Li-ion's operating temperature is between -20c to 60c.

when CPU reach around 60, the battery doesn't get near that number, probably around 40-45c.

that's why although my RN3 CPU often reach 70++c, it still working flawlessly after years.

true that it is safer to prevent electronics with densely-packed batteries from reaching higher temperature (learning from samsung note 7), so that could be a preventive action from manufacturers.

but factory specs are often exaggerated.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] aishik212:
i still request you to post a screenshot do that we can see the total performance difference.

also if u can calculate the battery drain it would be great.

my recommendation - run the test for 15 mins and check the total discharging among and post those values here, afterwards I'll do the same thing and post it here.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] vexa:
Okay so here's my test.

DISCLAIMER:

this is just a simple bedroom test, the result may or may not be identical if repeated under different circumstance.

There are no particular reason on choosing the setup below, it happen to be my daily setup when I conducted the test.

Setup:

ROM: Revenge OS Official 2.5 build 08/08/2019

Kernel: Rhea R5 (extracted from "EvolutionX OS unofficial" by septian126)

tested on 27-29°c ambient temp (not sure because my room thermometer is broken since... years ago :rolleyes: )

Before the initial test I let the device sit in front of a 30cm fan moving at full speed for around 20 mins. After the first test I installed the jthemod and did the same resting procedure before starting the second test to achieve identical starting temperature.

With Stock thermal controller

View attachment 4808348

With Jthermal_mod

View attachment 4808349

Conclusion

Turns out the stock thermal controller from revenge is pretty aggressive, it doesn't allow the CPU to get above 43°c. Indeed it's pleasing to hold the device longer, but the performance difference is huge, while the battery consumption is only 2% less. with Jthermal_mod, the device gains whooping performance jump from average 122k GIPS to 161k GIPS. Within 15 minutes the battery still in a safe temperature of 58°c, I think It'd take more than 30 minutes to reach the designated throttling temperature of 62°c. all that with only 2% of extra battery usage. even at 58°c, I personally think that the device is pretty warm, but still kinda comfortable to handle.

Okay now it's your turn to do the same test on stock ROM and Kernel.

Good luck ;)
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] aishik212:
woooow this is an amazing performance

as my phone is not rooted yet I'll just give your the stock redmi performance just like you posted then I'll put all the images together for comparison.

thanks for the help.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] vexa:
really? you promised me to do the same thing afterwards,

which is why I agreed to do the test on custom rom. . :(

I think the point here is to do 2 different tests:

stock vs modified thermal test on stock rom

and

stock vs modified thermal test on custom rom.

if you can't do the test now, then just wait until someone else does, because stock vs modified thermal test on stock rom is gonna be the most helpful one, because:

First: that's the rom most people are using, and

Second: there's no point comparing stock thermal performance on stock rom vs. moded thermal performance on custom rom.

that doesn't make any sense, MIUI roms have different performance and/or optimization compared to AOSPs :silly:

Here are the test results

Here are the test results shown in a table

and this is the screenshot of the test in a Stock MIUI ROM without any modifications

So the conclusion between Full Stock And Fully Modified is:

1)There is a 66% more battery consumption in the Fully modified ROM

2)There is only 8% increase in Highest temperature than the Stock ROM

3)There is a 57% Average performance improvement in the FM ROM the Stock ROM

If anyone is interested in Posting the Stock ROM + Thermal Mod then let me know, Otherwise I will be posting it Within Certain time.

So, I didn't record all the measures, but I tried the mod posted here.

MIUI 10.3.6, stock kernel

When I started, the battery temperature was 32°C.

As you can see, the battery temperature was 50°C(!) when the test finished. So, as I said, this will greatly decrease the lifespan of your battery.
