[Samsung Galaxy Watch] bober10113:
galaxy watch dosen't have a blood pressure sensor. its a know fact. it was only added on the recent addition of the active model.

this article about mid way states that the regular GW dosent have it where as the GW active does:

https://www.techradar.com/news/samsung-galaxy-watch-active-vs-samsung-galaxy-watch

this article boasts the new BP sensor as being a new addition on the yet to be released at the time galaxy watch active:

https://newatlas.com/samsung-galaxy-watch-active/58619/

and as an owner of the galaxy watch i confirm that it does in fact NOT have BP.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] torickray:
Both articles didn't mention a seperate sensor for bp monitoring. In fact, the official page for both watches show same number of sensors.

The BP monitoring most likely make use of the HR sensor with some calculation algorithms to get the BP reading.

Anyway, the feature is not available to all GW active yet. So it is normal won't available to GW for now. But I think GW might able to access the app in future.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] RR-99:
And the HR monitor is very inaccurate anyway.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Doktaphex:
As a sufferer of high blood pressure I can tell you that a NO watch or any other wrist based device can provide accurate or reliable BP readings.

It is a known fact that wrist based BP cuff devices consistently provide inaccurate readings, however they are allowed to be sold on the basis of providing a disclaimer that informs the user of the device's inaccuracy.

Even devices that use a proper cuff on the upper arm can vary wildly in their accuracy however I guess as long as the user is informed and knows that the blood pressure readings from a watch are in no way an accurate representation of their actual blood pressure then everything is fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Tel864:
I agree. The readings I get off my Galaxy phone are quite a bit higher than my cuff. I take my BP daily and every six months I carry my unit with me for my checkups so I can match it with the doctor's. It's usually consistent and close but I'd never trust anything that sits on my wrist.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] caravana:
There is no such thing as "blood pressure sensor" on the Active. The My BP Lab app use the HR monitor on the watch to estimate the blood pressure... so the GW could do it too.

You can actually install the same app on your phone if you're in US and use it with the S9, Note 9 and S10 series.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] WittePens:
Can confirm that the my BP app is working on my s9. I've been looking for a way to sideload it on to the galaxy watch, just to see if it really can't give an estimation of my BP.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] ialhabbal:
The video is the link is so poorly faked.

Any ways to build vendor.img using stock ROM's /system partition? I can treblize with twrp terminal but I don't have any vendor.img for Nokia 6
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] GuestD2206:
I can't seem to get mobile data to work on any custom rom. If I revert back to stock rom then mobile data works.

Calling and texting works both custom and stock rom.

I've checked APN settings and they appear to be the same as on stock. I've tried a factory reset after flashing rom, reseating sim card, resetting apn settings, turning on 'always on mobile data' in developer settings, turning on airplane mode then rebotting phone, changed preferred network, checked sim card number for data.

Any ideas as to why mobile data would only work when on stock rom?

[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] rahulmanpur:
I bought this phone 2 weeks ago, and soon rooted it and installed May Update via Fastboot.

While I'm generally happy with this phone, there's serious battery drain issue due to a particular wakelock called IPCRTR_lpass_rx. While there are others like RILJ etc. they are still not that severe.

I've tried Wifi on + data off, both on, both off, Only Sim 1 activated, both sims activated.

After this, I even put my mobile on flight mode for a night and there was around 20% drain overnight. In my previous mobile Redmi 3S, there would hardly be 1% drain over night on flight mode and 3-4% if Wifi was on.

I was tracking these using BetterBatteryStats, however, while tracing the root cause, i even uninstalled BBS and used the system in-built bug report and analyzed it on battery historian to track the wakelocks and all.

Then came June update. I clean flashed through the unofficial fastboot, formatted data partition as well so as to leave no stone unturned. Again the same situation. A lot of battery drain.

Here are some reports -

Please see the attached graph.

1. At around 6.30 PM (UTC) (graph times are in UTC) (12 AM IST) I kept my phone on flight mode at 50% battery and slept for 8 hours.

2. I woke up around 3.30 AM UTC (in the graph) (i.e, 9 AM IST) and checked my battery percentage. It was down to 30% from 50%.

3. Checked the main cause of wakeups, not much in Userspace wakelocks but massive amounts of kernel wakelocks from IPCRTR_lpass_rx. For the duration of this graph, there were over a million (2.3 x 10^6) wakelocks from this service, causing wakelocks every 2-3 seconds.

4. Even though phone went into full doze after some time, this wakelock continued.

Any suggestions on how to go about solving this?

Running June update, Rooted + cam2api enabled using Magisk patched boot img
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] rahulmanpur:
Its been a month since i moved to a custom ROM, currently on Havoc OS 2.7

The severety of the bug is lesser than stock ROM, however, still quite random and causes battery drain and keeps CPU awake!

Check the wake sources, IPCRTR_lpass_rx is the number one wakelock with 10^6 wakelocks!! Thats way too huge in my opinion, and keeps my CPU awake.

[IMG="wakesources"]https://i.postimg.cc/J0TmHYvm/wakesources.jpg[/IMG]
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] rahulmanpur:
At least i can prevent the wakelock to a large extent by turning off location, wifi (or both) in Havoc. It also doesn't occur during flight mode, or if it does sometimes, a restart usually solves the problem for me.

Ideally, even if i keep wifi on, battery should not drain more than 4-5% overnight (which was the case in all of my previous phones, and in my friends' phones other than Mi A2).
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] rahulmanpur:
This is december now. And so far, the only problem i have with this device is the poor battery, intensified with software problems, poor modem and LPASS!!!

Its kind of frustrating for me.

Please see the screenshots and the attached bugreport.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] mariosenta:
Well, i'm very satisfied with battery on this device. It could be better, but it's only 3000mah.

If I'm on .58 flashing just vendor.img of .72 before all the steps helps?
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Guides, News, & Discussion] AryanAA:
It disables the verified boot, so that you can flash gsi and custom roms. Without it, nothing other than zenui will boot.

Yep flash vendor image and stock boot image of 72, and you'll be good to go!
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Guides, News, & Discussion] viveknaudiyal:
I have performed step 8 and now I am in twrp. How to perform Step 9. Please suggest

Edit- Thanks did it by copying the files to my otg and flashing through twrp.
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Guides, News, & Discussion] AryanAA:
Glad you were able to succeed :)

Okay! Can you provide your bootloader version and slots on which you have stock rom and twrp?
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Guides, News, & Discussion] Xadus:
my bootloader version was the latest one .72 and my stock ROM was on slot b, which I switched to a for flashing twrp and then booted into twrp and switched back to b to clear data, system and cache; flashed the ROM in the same slot and then flashed the permanent twrp as well.

Following all this i could reeboot back into twrp but couldn't get the ROM to boot.
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Guides, News, & Discussion] AryanAA:
After wiping system,data,cache, you had to go back to slot A and then reboot to recovery and after that flash the rom (read point 10 of post).

[MENTION=8274337]AryanAA[/MENTION] can you please extend this guide on how to install magisk
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Guides, News, & Discussion] Xadus:
I tried that as well.

I must have repeated the process numerous times, i tired flashing it on the slot where my twrp is and i tired flashing it on the slot where was stock was as well in the next try; both incidences gave bootloop.

I was able to flash elementalX using this guide. Thanks for detailed info,i found this guide more understandable than the 1 we have in how to flash gsi thread.
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Guides, News, & Discussion] AryanAA:
1. Flash DFE on both slots.

2. Go to fastboot and do fastboot -w on your rom slot
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Guides, News, & Discussion] AryanAA:
Interesting. I think you should restart the whole process and flash rom only on inactive slot rather than both the slots!
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Guides, News, & Discussion] AryanAA:
Process of flashing magisk is exactly same as gapps. Infact you can install gapps and magisk in one go.
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Guides, News, & Discussion] Xadus:
Maybe i will give try in the future, for now i flashed the stock as i was frustrated by the whole thing.

Thanks a lot for your help though.
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Guides, News, & Discussion] Aruss5:
Fastboot -w ..it's says "waiting for device" can any one help?
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Guides, News, & Discussion] AryanAA:
You have to first install adb and fastboot drivers to your computer.
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Guides, News, & Discussion] Aruss5:
Thank for the reply...but now I got into a new problem. My stock rom is in slot b so I flash twrp in a but twrp is not booting....stock rom is booting perfectly...
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Guides, News, & Discussion] AryanAA:
Flash vbmeta on slot a and try booting twrp after that. That should work.
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Guides, News, & Discussion] amscova:
If you're running stock rom in b, fastboot set_active a while in bootloader, flash, then reboot to recovery from device. Make sure you flashed twrp as boot.img not recovery.img. There's no reason it shouldn't boot.
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Guides, News, & Discussion] zoomol:
Hi All,

I have an issue with flashing ROM/TWRP.

Steps I did were from this post, and from Rohan's.

I was trying to flash the Evolution-X ROM.

My original slot, when I first saw the bootloader was: b

I changed it to a, with fastboot command.

Then, I flashed TWRP boot.img

Then, restarted to recovery

Then, in TWRP, I set the pattern, language.

Then, wiped data/cache/dalvik

Then, mounted storage partition, and pushed via Windows PC: ROM, TWRP.zip, and DisableForceEncription.zip

Then, unmounted

Then, flashed DisableForceEncription.zip, then ROM, then TWRP.zip

Then restarted to Recovery

Then restarted to SYSTEM and the bad started :(

What I have right now, is that my phone keeps asking me for the pattern to decrypt the data, but ultimately, it says that I need to do "Factory reset". I'm clicking to do that, and then it reboots to TWRP, and again asks for the pattern. Next I get this errors:

Updating partition details...
...done
Unable to mount storage
E: Decrypt took too long, killing process
Failed to decrypt data.

Right now, I can't do anything.

Can't mount storage, to push any ZIP file for flashing, can't boot into system, nothing.

Please, help! :(

Edit: I was trying the "fastboot -w" method, but it shouts to me, that:

wiping userdata...
CreateProcess failed: The system cannot find the file specified. (2)
error: Cannot generate image for userdata

:(:(
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Guides, News, & Discussion] AryanAA:
You have to wipe internal storage after flashing dfe zip using

fastboot -w
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Guides, News, & Discussion] zoomol:
AryanAA, thank you for answer.

I tried that, and, as you can see by the code inserted, fastboot do not see the userdata image/partition.

I can't get to any of "storage" partitions (there is no partition, I could mount in TWRP), in order to push any ZIP for flashing.

The only values I see are: system, vendor, firmware, ASDF, Factory, DSP, Micro SD card, usb_otg.

When I select any of the above anc tap on "enable MTP", I hear the "USB device plug-in" sound in Windows, but nothing is visible by the explorer. Any idea, how to copy ZIP for flahsing?

Or, how should I flash the DisableForceEncription.zip file through fastboot, if I can't push it to the internal memory?
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Guides, News, & Discussion] AryanAA:
I used to get the same problems while doing fastboot -w, it is failing that's why you're unable to flash properly. I used this guide to solve my problem: https://www.xda-developers.com/adb-fastboot-any-directory-windows-linux/

Using Method 1 should hopefully solve your issue.
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Guides, News, & Discussion] zoomol:
AryanAA, but I can call the fastboot command. It is just not bringing the correct result:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>fastboot -w
wiping userdata...
CreateProcess failed: The system cannot find the file specified. (2)
error: Cannot generate image for userdata
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Guides, News, & Discussion] AryanAA:
Yes this was same for me too. Commands like fastboot set_active and fastboot devices always worked, but fastboot -w didn't use to work and showed the same output as yours. Kindly try the method in the link. :)
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Guides, News, & Discussion] zoomol:
AryanAA,

I managed to get my phone to work.

It seems, that, I neede to first change the slot (which I don't know why, was changing itself) form "B" (the default, where the stock ROM was in) to "A".

Then, I was able to enter recovery and wipe all, again, in recovery changed slot to "A" and reboot to bootloader.

Then I did the fastboot -w (but first, ensured, that the active slot is again "A"), and reboot to recovery.

One more time, wiped all data and flashed the ROM, TWRP.zip and restarted, and if finally worked.

Thanks for your help.
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Guides, News, & Discussion] Curlev:
Everything went just fine with the flashing but my FP reader doesnt work when I am in owner mode. If I switch to guest mode then it works. Do someone have any idea why? Maybe something with the encryption?

In the prerequisites section you mention "72 Vendor (If you don't understand this, make sure you're on the latest update, 90.11.162.72)". I'm not sure what 72 vendor is, but my phone right now says that its build is 90.10.138.181 which is less that what was in the OP. Is this an issue? If so, how do I update, since the asus update thing is saying its on the latest version.

Thank you so much for the guide, I had tried to install a custom ROM on 5Z a few months back but was not successful and ultimately gave up getting frustrated.

Thought to give it another go yesterday and followed your guide, managed to install the ROM perfectly with everything working flawlessly, a huge kudos to you!

I just have one question, lets say I have my custom ROM installed on slot A (and I have perma twrp flashed on both slots) and i decide to change the ROM, would I just wipe the data and flash it in slot B (since on booting twrp changes to alternate slot) or switch back to slot A and wipe data then flash the ROM in same slot?

Thank you again!
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Guides, News, & Discussion] AryanAA:
To switch ROMs, just boot into slot a twrp and wipe data, system. Then reboot to recovery in slot b and flash rom and twrp zip. Then reboot to recovery and flash gapps(if needed) and magisk zip. Reboot. Done :)
[Asus Zenfone 5Z  Guides, News, & Discussion] Xadus:
So just for clarification if my current ROM is in slot A, I will have to flash the other ROM to slot B, am I right?

my question is how to erase internal storage via fastboot because when i type "fastboot -w" it says waiting for devices, if i return to fastboot mode, twrp will gone.

please help, i really want to try custom rom on this amazing device

i tried both pixel experience Q and Evolution-X 4.0, but doesnt work :(

By mistake, I didn't change partitions, I installed TWRP in System Slot and it started TWRP but it didn't start system.

There is no way, it doesn't work.

As I mentioned, the root works, it is easy but the camera does not work and I do not know if more things will fail.

Question: Is the img.parched in telegram the same as what we can do with magisk?

Thank you very much for the attention and work

I have performed up to step .6 and it doesn't work. I have tried it several times and nothing. I have flashed it to Pie, I have updated to UL-Z01R-WW-100.10.107.46-user and also to UL-Z01R-WW-100.10.107.70-user and I have followed the steps rigorously, I have even downloaded the necessary files again , but nothing, does not install.

By mistake, I didn't change partitions, I installed TWRP in System Slot and it started TWRP but then it didn't start system.

To try again I downgrade with .raw, update again and start again.

There is no way, it doesn't work.

Anyway thank you very much.
