[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Questions & Answers] Avalon:
Voiding the warranty will not be a pleasant thing to do, but I'm annoyed as hell by some of the things that are happening in ZenUI:

- Disabling Google apps i.e. chrome, duo, YouTube is futile since the apps turn back on again.

- Since chrome can't be permanently disabled I can't click on links in apps such as Sync for Reddit without chrome opening automatically asking me to use Chrome.

- Some accessibility settings that were turned on randomly turn themselves off after a reboot. In my case it happened to a password manager that was suddenly no longer able to auto fill fields in my browser.

- I can't seem to switch songs with my volume control . Simply a feature I really miss.

I'll give them one update to see if either of the above improves. If not I'll install a custom ROM.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Questions & Answers] Supra | MD:
This was happening with me, after the 3rd or 4th time of disabling Duo and Chrome haven't turned back on, for what it's worth. Keep trying.

Is it LastPass? It doesn't actually disable able accessibility settings, just keeps asking for it for some reason.

LastPass is honestly quite trash.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Questions & Answers] Avalon:
I'll keep trying, thanks. As for lastpass, yeah, it's not great. Bitwarden has been great for me for the last 2 years.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Questions & Answers] cobben:
I was also having a fit trying to disable Chrome, Duo, Photos and Youtube - they were all just being enabled again, rather quickly.

It seemed to happen once via Playstore downloading languages for something, could never catch exactly what triggered this.

Anyway, after several reboots and redisabling, it hasn't happened for two days now.

Don't miss disabling the 3 Facebook system apps.

They at least have remained disabled.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Questions & Answers] Avalon:
You had 3 Facebook system apps on your device? I had the normal Facebook app which I was able to fully delete.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Questions & Answers] cobben:
You have them too.

Look in Settings/apps/, choose "all apps', then in 3 dots at upper right choose "show system".

Then scroll down to "face".

I found them via the firewall app Netguard, recommended.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Questions & Answers] Avalon:
Lookie here.... Thanks. This prompts me even more to install a custom ROM.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Questions & Answers] cobben:
I don't agree.

I think Asus has done a very good job with this one.

All the custom roms seem to have all sorts of various problems.

The 4 Google apps Asus had to preinstall to keep on the right side of Google.

As long as they finally stay disabled, I'm ok with that.

The Fakebook stuff is more serious, IMHO they made a bad judgement call installing the Fakebook stuff.

(Maybe they get paid for doing that?)

But the apps don't seem to do anything while disabled, I have Netguard monitoring them.

And I haven't found anything else problematic at all yet.

.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Questions & Answers] cobben:
Advice from some 5-7 year old threads just came in:

Disabling the app "Google Partner Setup" will stop the automatic re-enabling of other apps.

I have not tried this, yet anyway.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Questions & Answers] Avalon:
Thanks for this. I didn't stumble upon such a thread when I was searching for a solution. Let's see how it goes.

As for ZenUI, it's definitely not the worst and I like how little bloatware is included. Perhaps I'm a bit quick with my judgement and I'll wait for a next update.

The fact that apps that require accessibility settings cease to function after a reboot until I simply open that app is a huge pain in the ass tho. Examples include: bitwarden and swiftly switch (pro). Hope this gets fixed. I was wrong in saying that the accessibility toggle automatically turns off. I assumed that because said apps don't function as intended after a reboot.

As for custom ROMs I'll definitely wait. I went through the threads and there seem to be quite a couple of issues that need to be ironed out first. Flashing a ROM now might open new doors to other problems that are bigger than the ones I'm facing right now.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Questions & Answers] trachyte:
As someone who just spent a week trying to get LOS installed and is going back to stock, I can testify that custom ROMs are not ready yet. All of the necessary elements (recovery, ROM, gapps, etc.) have multiple showstopper issues. Add on to that the confusion caused by A/B partitions. I've never kept a phone stock before, but I'm flashing stock and will check back in 6 months to see if custom ROMs are stable by then.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Questions & Answers] cobben:
I don't use those apps, but have you set them to autostart and to "no battery optimization"?
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Questions & Answers] Avalon:
Yep, exactly my thoughts.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Questions & Answers] loneagl:
Agree with disabling of accessibility features.

I use FliudNG for gestures (highly recommended especially for 6z) and I have to disable and re-enable it's accessibility, then re-enable the app again after a reboot.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Questions & Answers] Avalon:
So strange. In my case the only thing I NEED to do for those apps to work is simply open the app and close it again. I haven't tried FluidNG yet but I expect the same results.

Edit: tried it. Same results indeed.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Questions & Answers] Jimmcwibb:
FWIW I have three facebook apps listed (after uninstalling the main app) - "Facebook App Installer", "Facebook App Manager" and "Facebook Services". Don't know what these do, so I just disabled them. They're disabled now so I'm hoping they can't get their podgy fingers involved in anything?
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Questions & Answers] Avalon:
Yep, blocking them was recommended by someone already earlier in this thread. Good find either way.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Questions & Answers] cobben:
I have been tracking their potential attempts at internet access via Netguard, and there is none.

So they do seem to stay comfortably disabled.

The other preloaded apps that I repeatedly had to disable have also remained disabled for a week now, so that problem seems to have gone away.

(Or are they just waiting for a wakeup signal from the mothership? ;) )
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Questions & Answers] NSpeedy:
Have someone tried disabling apps using Island or similar Android-for-work software? It says that it can work without root by setting the software as a device owner using adb... Because with every possible app disabled (GP, FB, etc) their folders on Internal Storage still recreated after removal.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] _3rik:
Heyo

I used to have a Huawei p8 lite (had it for like 2 years) but now i finally upgraded to a pixel 3. About a year ago I was really active here, and was flashing a new custom ROM on that phone like every week. It ended up getting treble support, which was cool, but half the treble GSIs (and all pie and upwards GSIs) didn't work because of huawei's HAL etc. Eventually I fell out of the community and stopped tinkering with the phone. This was due to a mix of lack of development, no free time, and a lack of interest tbh. Anyway, now that I have this pixel 3, I'm thinking of getting back into it. Im currently still 100% stock (no unlocked bootloader, no root) and using the official android 10 update. Do you guys reccomend any ROMs, is there anything I should be aware of romming this phone and do you know if magisk works on stock android 10?

Also are there any telegram groups y'all reccomend I join?

Thanks! And hello pixel 3 community ?

Hah, why?

I'm on xiaomi mi 9t now, was thinking of changing it for P3XL...
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] zetsumeikuro:
Most logical guess would be because the 4 is releasing next month.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] v12xke:
Don't listen to the others. The P3 is a stellar phone... one of the best you can own. The first thing you should do is unlock the bootloader. Even if you never root the phone, simply unlocking it makes it virtually un-brickable. Because unlocking will wipe the phone, the sooner you do it less time is wasted on set up time. If you are interested in rooting, first make absolutely sure you are on the latest adb/fastboot binaries. There is a new version for September (29.0.3) Clear out any old versions you may have installed before and do a version check to be sure. This is important. Yes Magisk works perfectly on 10. Get on the Canary build of Magisk Manager and read up on rooting 10 as the process has another step or two but not difficult at all. Just read through it before starting. After that the world is your oyster. First apps I add are AdAway, Nova Launcher, Titanium Backup, EX Kernel Manager and Solid Explorer. The stock ROM rooted and EX kernel is good enough for me, and monthly updates (on 3 Pixel phones) is all the fun I am looking for. Best of luck and welcome back to XDA. Enjoy your new phone.

[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] josemedina1983:
I would stay fully stock. I don't see much benefits rooting android 10 I haven't run into any major glitches or bugs everything is pretty stable. Back in the Nexus One days battery life was pretty mediocre so rooting was a must just to get some extra juice.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] ktmom:
Yet many of the basics I rely on require root. Adaway is the first app installed. ACC (battery management) is the second app installed.

It's all in how you "use" your device.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] iamjimmy:
Thanks for the helpful post. I have a P2XL and recently also purchased a P3XL. I am going to use both. I have P2XL rooted and all apps installed EXCEPT Adaway.

Could you please provide any information on how to install Adaway? My P2XL is completely rooted, with ElementalX. TWRP recovery and Stock ROM. I've already unlocked the bootloader for P3XL. I'm going to be rooting it today. My understanding is that there is NO TWRP custom recovery possible yet on P3XL.

Anyway, is there a way to install Adaway on both of these phones? The Ads have been sucking my blood and totally kills the experience of browsing IMO. Thanks in advance.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] v12xke:
Adaway is a free app, maintained by PerfectSlayer HERE . You simply sideload it, and then allow root access. So... root the P3XL first by using MM (canary) to patch a stock boot.img ->fastboot flash that to your phone and once you have confirmed MM is reporting you are rooted and up to date, simply sideload the Adaway.apk. Best of luck. :good:
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] iamjimmy:
Thank you so much. Just installed Adaway on my P2XL and it works perfect. Will install on P3XL as soon as I root. Appreciate all the instructions.

Since you seem to be so knowledgeable - one question on P3XL.

Is there any way to have an indicator that the battery is charging when connected to a charger? On P3XL there is NO notification light. On my P2XL I was using light Manager. It would turn the LED green or red depending on the charge level. I would have red light for charge below 65%, green light for charge between 65% and 90% and blue light for 90%+ (fully charged). It was a GREAT way to figure out whether the phone was charging or not and how much it was charged, without unlocking it.

Is there anything possible for Pixel 3 XL? Right now when connected to a charger there is no indication that the phone is charging. Also I cannot see the battery % level without unlocking my phone. I prefer to keep the battery between 65% and 85% for max lifespan and it was easy to do that in P2XL because of the notification LED and light manager. Anything similar possible in P3XL? Or any other way to get around it? Thanks.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] v12xke:
Nothing that I know of for the lockscreen. Pretty sure the LED is gone for the P3XL. You may play around with Accubattery though. It has an adjustable charging level so you get a notification when the phone reaches your predetermined charge level. It *may* also have a lockscreen icon to indicate charge? GL

[MENTION=5601653]iamjimmy[/MENTION]

For battery management, since you're rooted, check out Advanced Charging Controller. This app will manage battery charging automatically. You can either just install the app and manage through the app, or use the command line.

I do some involved controlling through tasker so when I'm using navigation in the car, the battery stays at 42%, but then when I'm about an hour from my destination it goes to 80%. Typically, I leave my phone on a wireless charger stand when not using it and keep the charge between 70-80%.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] iamjimmy:
Thanks so much for the app link. There doesn't seem to be much description in the GIThub and I'm reading through the thread.

So basically this app has to be installed from a terminal emulator? I downloaded the zip but I guess this is not a standard APK.

Also I'm guessing I can use this APP to just charge my phone to 85% and stop charging. No matter how long it is connected to the charger?

My whole point is to never let the phone be charged over 80 to 85%. With my Pixel2XL it is easy with the lightmanager app and one can set custom colors when the charge threshold is reached. The notification LED changes colors: So you can immediately unplug. Why the hell did Google remove the LED from Pixel 3 XL?

---------- Post added at 11:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:32 AM ----------

Also I got the Pixel3 XL for $599. My pixel 2 XL works very well, but I was getting bored and needed a new phone. Now I'm feeling guilty spending the $599 since the Pixel 4 is around the corner. '

I'm having a very hard time dealing with the huge notch of P3XL. Other than that the screen and colors are far better than P2XL.

Acc is set it and forget it. But also allows very powerful customization. I would suggest starting with the app, since I'm guessing you want some time to figure things out.

Get the app (for now) from the assets link on the GitHub page I linked for the app. Soon it will be available on fdroid.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] iamjimmy:
Thanks. I downloaded the app. It is a zip file. I extracted that zip on my phone.

Sorry for the newbie question: Is there a way to install this app? There is no .apk file. Should I just run the .bat file?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] ktmom:
Sounds like you downloaded the source code instead of the apk.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] iamjimmy:
Hi. I've been using the ACC app. I set the default profile to 85% charge threshold.

However, the phone does not STOP charging at 85%. Also in the ACC app the battery % is not accurate. It reports 75% when the actual is closer to 85%.

Any clues on how to fix this? Also how does this app get uninstalled? Is it the standard android uninstallation - or is something special needed? Thanks.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] ktmom:
The default app configuration works perfectly in my Pixel 3xl. Though differences between devices, including custom kernel or other mods will have an affect.

There are tweaks that fine tune the way ACC runs on different devices.

From the ACC App documentation, Troubleshooting section

From the FAQ

Uninstalling the app the standard way, from settings -> apps & notifications, should work fine. You can make sure the backend is removed from a terminal, running as root. A simple "acc -i" will return acc not found message if it's not longer installed.

It would be helpful to use the ACC thread for discussion as there are others much more experienced than I, and your problems/concerns and ultimate solutions may end up helping others.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] iamjimmy:
Thank you for your helpful post.

It is strange that your P3XL works fine and mine does not. I don't have any mods except Magisk root. No modules for Magisk also. So bone stock, just rooted.

I tried the battery calibration using an APP on playstore but that doesn't help. Basically the phone reports incorrect battery status in ACC- usually 10-13% lower than what android reports in battery % icon.

I will post all this in the ACC thread as well.

Just one last question: In the profiles - If I have Stop at 85% and Resume at 75%. This means that the phone will NEVER charge after 85%. And it will resume charging if the battery is below 75%? What if the battery is 78% will it charge? And what if the battery is 68% - will it charge?

I guess I'm not able to understand the meaning of "RESUME" charge. Does it mean that the battery only charges when the charge is above the resume % or is it BELOW the resume %.

Once again, thanks for your help. If you think this is too specific, I can ask in the ACC thread as well.

I've noticed on my kaiser that the 'Outlook' mailbox isn't shown unless I set activesync to sync my emails. I'm actually using another program to sync email, which specifically says I need to set activesync NOT to try and sync emails. The emails are syncing, as I can see them in some programs and today plugins, but when I go to the message app I don't have a choice of the outlook mailbox.

If I enable the mail sync on activesync, then the outlook mailbox shows up on the device, but then I always get an activesync error since there's actually no compatible mail client on the pc for it to sync with.

How can I unhide the outlook mailbox from the message app / mailbox chooser?
