[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] TheFixItMan:
Each one will give a different size because they take different partitions into account

Eg android settings will probably take system data & cache partitions and add these all together to give a total size

TWRP will split each partition into its own size

And so on

Some "free space" will not actually be free space but will be reserved for system use

On average you will need about 800mb of free space as reported by android system settings to be able to update/install new apps

The biggest issue is system apps - when these get updated the system apk doesn't get updated. Instead the updated apk gets installed to the data partition tus you actually have two of the same app installed. One is the system app & the updated version in data.

This is good if you ever have issues and need to roll back to the system installed version but many users don't and it just takes up probably another 2gb of storage

Now you can either replace the system app with the one in data or you can remove the app entirely & reinstall just to data - Obviously each method requires root & can brake stock ota updates etc

Or if you are using a custom rom install the minimum amount of gapps for functionality (eg nano gapps) instead of stock gapps & manually install any other required apps

Other than that there's nothing you can do except clear cache & keep a check on apps that download media such as WhatsApp & delete that media from its folder in internal storage
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] dahawthorne:
As the original poster I can only add what I have found out. Since the phone was a remote one I had no direct access, but my friend went to a local Android specialist who diagnosed that her missing memory was caused by photos. When the photos were deleted from the phone, but kept in the cloud, her memory usage dropped to acceptable levels. I have no idea why local photos would count as system storage.
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] TheFixItMan:
As mentioned in previous post it depends what the app deems system storage - usually it combines all internal partitions like it does in system settings storage

Unless you use a root app or twrp that can read and access individual partitions I would take system storage as a combined total of all usable internal partitions - so images would make up this total on internal storage which is why I mentioned whatsapp media
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] rahimali:
I resolved the out of space issue by installing a 32GB microSD and configuring as internal storage
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] PorkKnuckle:
Thanks for the quick replies!

Still I don't understand this massive use of disk space. I'm using LineageOS since the first day I use this phone. On LOS 14.1 I had MicroG, now on LOS 16 it's openGApps pico. Updates have to be installed manually, as for this phone there's no official LineageOS. All the data of my Apps is moved to the external SD card except WhatsApp.

So basically there's not much disk space used. As mentioned above, it's 4.65 GB of used space of the internal storage (according to X-plore its path is /sdcard). If we assume the internal storage to be just 10 GB of the physical 16 GB, then there's still half of the capacity unused. That's a big difference to the reported 996 MB (today it's 932 MB).

Might this difference come from mistakes at installing or manually updating LineageOS?

After updating to LOS 16 by clean install, there was no big increase of free space. Is there a possibility to get some space back in the course of a clean install?

Furthermore, the free space of data partition according to TWRP is just little above 1 GB, eventhough it says only about 3.5 GB of the 10 GB are used. I thought at least TWRP would show the real amount...

I would like to flash custom recovery -> in order to use custom ROM -> in order to gain split screen in my 7" device (ehhh)

I have root, adb, access to bootloader (everything what I need..) but it does not work in default way.. - I mean flashing just by fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img

I have checked those TWRP builds

https://twrpbuilder.github.io/downloads/twrp/ (type px5)

Flashing worked fine (no error, success message)

But after rebooting to recovery I still have original recovery. Note: I have to reboot to system, and then to recovery by adb command. There is no reset button on my device, I can only enter bootloader by long pressing volume button while booting.

I saw `backup` partition in my device. Is it possible that system is reverting recovery partition? How to fix that so I can use TWRP
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] tuga_z:
That TWRP don't work in PX5. I'm trying to get it work
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] SZAMAN92:
Good luck!

Please inform me if you will succeed.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] stokedcrf:
Have you first tried to boot TWRP without flashing? I'd most certianly want to try that before flashing something.

Did that work?

This might sound super silly, but did you also unlock the bootloader first? (Sorry, I'm not familiar with your specific device so this may or may not apply in your situation)
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] SZAMAN92:
Any advice is welcome ;) thanks

But without unlocking bootloader I would not be able to go to bootloader and use fastboot tool right? So I concluded it is already unlocked.

I tried

fastboot boot TWRP.img

Image was downloaded and booted (success message was printed in console), I lost connection with device so it went in some other mode then bootloader, but after 30 seconds of black screen I have switch power off and back on to restart.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] tuga_z:
What android version you have ? 8 ?
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] SZAMAN92:
9

Build nr: rk3368-userdebug 9 PQ2A 190305

Kernel v: 4.4.167

MCU: MTCE_GS_V3.07_3

It is that build:

https://yadi.sk/d/umCvHqCDzHccr/RockChip PX5 Android 9/HA/HA_px5_9.0_ota(20190528)升级包.7z

I tried using A8 roms but I can not flash it with original recovery.. It requires device name be PX5 (I have rk3368). If I remove checking from rom updater script, signature verification fails.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] SZAMAN92:
I have tried recovery from Malaysk pack (extracted from update.zip), tried RecoveryInstaller from malaysk, lot of TWRP which I have found in web.

Nothing worked.

However as a last chance I used bootable SD from Malaysk - recovery (for android 8) successfully installed, Malyask rom installed. Im happy now ;)

BTW. If you want you system to not revert recovery - you need to remove "/system/recovery-from-boot.p"
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] tuga_z:
By this you mean that you no longer need TWRP for android 8 ?
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] SZAMAN92:
I mean I already have Recovery v8. So I was been able to flash custom A8 ROM.

However if you would implement TWRP please message me ;) It is always better.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] marchnz:
Except if you ever want to update your unit or MCU, then it's pretty much useless.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] SZAMAN92:
Maybe you are right. But at least it is easier to backup / restore whole device with TWRP.
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] ottchris:
Yesterday received first update since January's upgrade to Pie. Sadly it just brings the security level from December 2018 to April 2019, version being 9.0.0.255 i.e not 9.1. Not only do we have Huawei's arrangement with UK network operators delaying updates, we now have Google under orders from the Trump adding another potential maybe permanent delay. If forum administrator agrees, perhaps this topic can remain open as an ongoing record.

Not really. That thread is not country specific; note I specified "UK" in the topic header. My experience to date is knowing when updates are being pushed in other countries or regions doesn't help much with regard to the UK owing to the special arrangement between Huawei and UK mobile network operators. While one Swallow does not make a Summer, it's helpful to know when a new update is released by one of the UK networks.

I had no updates from o2 since December. Plugged a Vodafone sim in and 255 arrived immediately.
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] ottchris:
Interesting! As you were just over three weeks behind my GiffGaff/O2 255 update you _might_ have received 255 via O2 had you waited a little longer (my previous update to 168 and December security patch was in January). That being said, perhaps switching sims puts you to the head of the staggered update queue of the changed network provider.

Brief observations :

Just under 4.5GB so long download.

During post-install restart the initial Huawei logo screen displayed for a very long time (several minutes) so don't panic! :)

Noticeable improvement in responsiveness although how long that will last remains to be seen.

Lastly, security patch level is July.

From some very brief research I believe the only way of telling if GPU Turbo is installed is by the improved responsiveness when running a game that can use it. I am not a 'gamer' so have no way of testing that. What makes you believe the update package content information is incorrect?

[Amazfit] phnikola:
Hi all,

to my (and several other users as I see) disappointment - Amazfit Stratos "metal" hands that hold the bracelet are just a mask cover over the plastic base.

Due to the design of the original charger - there is significant pressure required to "plug" the watch in the charging cradle - and during this activity watch hands are exposed to strong pressure. During just 5th charging - metal hand fell off - destroying my excitement about its build quality. (photo attached)

There are aftermarket chargers that solve the issue - by capturing the watch with a different lock mechanism.

I am struggling either to sell the (new) watch or fix this.

Has anyone tried proven method of gluing this back?

Thank you!

P.S. BTW, watch was bought on AliExpress - and unfortunatelly Amazfit is not recognizing this for warranties. AliExpress seller on the other side was quite keen to send for free these metal hands replacements (they are aware of the issue) - but I just cannot replace the trust that easily. If these hands can fall off anytime (hit or pressure) - watch really looks broken without them. (plastic with traces of glue).

5. Then flash your loved wm6.1 rom. (better with my lazy tool... :D )

[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] truckerdewd:
For those that want to take advantage of this beautiful screen and all it's glory. These commands will remove the status bar, the navigation bar, or both. They must be run using ADB. I did not create this, these commands have been around for quite a while and I have been using them as far back as the Galaxy S8.

They do the same thing as immersive mode in System UI Tuner but without having to install another app and run commands for that app to work and yes before you ask, I have used that same app on some of the recent phones I have had. These commands are just for those that want the full screen experience.

Without further ado here are the commands to be placed into ADB.

To hide the Status bar:

adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.status=*

To hide the Navigation bar:

adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.navigation=*

To hide both Status and Navigation bars:

adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.full=*

To revert:

adb shell settings put global policy_control null*

Hope Y'all enjoy it.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] knives of ice:
is there a code to disable the nav bar permanently? for instance, with the code above it basically hides the nav bar. it is still available if you swipe up. i'd like to completely disable it so it never shows and use LMT with gestures instead.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Burt Squirtz:
Oh my god thank you. I'm looking for the same thing. I want to remove the navigation bar entirely. I use fluid navigation gestures right now, because I absolutely hate the OnePlus navigation gestures animation you get. (Flingy shrinking square effect)It feels like it's slowing down the phone.

But when you use the fingerprint sensor with fluid gestures, for a brief moment, the system has to shoot the navigation bar back down again. it's annoying and glitchy. It feels like I can't win, there's always a stupid animation I don't want to see

yes, but the nav bar still comes up when you swipe from bottom to top or when you open the keyboard to type something.

---------- Post added at 02:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:15 AM ----------

unless there is something specifically different with oneplus - this build prop edit no longer works since going to Pie.

there definitely is some way to hide it because some custom roms like Resurrection Remix still remove it completely if you want.

gonna keep trying and see if i can get rid of it all together

Hi

I love to use the phone in full immersive mode, but I have problem with the keyboard. Let's say I have kb up in the browser. Somebody sends me a msg, I have the popup (which I'd also like to be able to disable btw, in case if you know a trick), and it brings back the statusbar for the time of the pop up, and that causes the reloading of the kb. Very annoying. Plus in whatsapp it breaks the ui, the top bar with the name of the contact disappears, and the type bar also covered by the kb for a few pixel widht. If the kb is not up, there's no problem. Am I the knly lucky with these issues?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] knives of ice:
you're right - this is the way to do it. when you have it turned on the keyboard doesn't come up. that combined with the adb code to hide both bars seems to work
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Skenderbeggar:
This worked for me:

Requirements: ADB and Fastboot installed on PC or Mac.

"adb shell wm overscan 0,0,0,-202"

[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] runningnak3d:
Is there an easy way to enable per app nav bar immersive mode? On stock LG Oreo, there was a toggle on the nav bar that you could enable / disable per app to show / hide the nav bar (nothing for status bar .. but I like having the status bar).

If not I think I found something to work on ;)

Edit : So I see that Renovate Ice offers per app, but I am not going to pay for a feature that I can fix myself. I run xxx no limits, and I think I will get in touch with that dev to see if he will let me work with him to get it added in.

[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] runningnak3d:
I cheesed out and paid for Renovate. It is nice that you can run Renovate with xxx No Limits at the same time .. the only issue being the timeout of the AOD . Way too fast with both installed.

Hi

Is anybody there uses full immersive mode on 10?

Before on 9 I had some issues, when the keyboard was active. After it was fixed. (I was on havoc).

Now as I swapped to 10 some months ago, I have the same issue. I was waiting all these months to be fixed, but still the keyboard breaks the ui. You can see in whatsapp chat, substratum, even in xda app, when you write a post.

This only happens, when I hide statbar, as navbar is always hidden, that doesn't give problem, so I did a blacklist for the statbar for tgese apps. I use system ui tuner app.

Do you know any way to fix this?

I wrote a couple of times to the forum of the rom I use, but no answer. I know, not so popular the full immersive mode, but I really like it, please share if you know a fix, thanks.
