[Xiaomi Mi 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] tsongming:
Technically it wasn't a persist issue, it was more of a false persist issue caused by encryption. These persist issues are pain is the A**, but at least , I have a way to quickly restore everything, and it doesn't happen very often. To answer your question, I don't know if Miui 11 was the cause because this time the Google GMS folder became encrypted, after updating Magisk Canary, Debug.

I switched back to Canary, which for me is the most stable. I may try using a different rom for a week or so and see if the issue reappears. I never once had issues like this on my old Leeco pro 3. However, one of the developers released AICP on Android 10 and some people experienced persist issues.

The only problem with considering that it may be related to Android 10, is that it can't be Android 10 due to plenty of people experiencing persist issues early this year prior to beta testing for Q. However in the case of the Leeco persist issue, they are now using updated gapps, and a very different version of Magisk.

So that leaves us with Google Services, TWRP, or Magisk

John Wu, would be the best person to ask, I will try and reach him on Twitter.

Cause of Persist issue

[MENTION=7398455]NightScap3[/MENTION]

I ended up staying up extremely late and finally may have found some better information about what causes these persist problems.

I am going to post the link for group of people experiencing similar issues. There is a problem with one part of their solution ( they are sharing a persist image - Don't ) Everything that I have read up until now emphatically states that using someone else persist image is a really bad idea, so skip that part. Essnetially, we already had some of this information but there is some of info here, I will read the whole thread when I wake up.

According to the people on this link this issue is a combination of a Android Bug and a TWRP issue.

It seems that going back to stock Pie temporarily is the best method for a long term fix.

sorry mistake
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Flawn:
Are you sure that Mi 8 has also this problem? The percentage of people who see this error on Mi 8 is pretty low, and I doubt that we are affected by this, tho it can of course be. I have heard of the issue back then and it was already fixed for A10 at least... tho I have no clue if OrangeFox leaves any logs. Did topjohnwu answer? I am now on RevengeOS A10 and taking logs so the next time something happens I hopefully have some logs. I thought also of a Kernel issue regarding encryption, that would make the most sense also if you think of that on MIUI 11 people apparently don't have problems (me too).
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] tsongming:
Absolutely, there are countless posts on this., and quite a few people who are not able to resolve their issue.

Hi ladies and lads,

i am looking for an App that specializes on playing videos and the ability to access Google Drive. The official Drive App doesn't work out for me - everytime i try to scroll on the timeline of the video, i accidentaly swipe back / forth to the next video, when i swipe back its back to start.. it can not show me where i left which results in tedious searching of the last part i was watching, etc

Can anybody recommend an App which could provide a better experience when watching Content from Google Drive?

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Jonasteddybear:
I would recommend you try the SFR network (www.sfr.fr) - among the cheapest pre-paid plans you can get there and best GSM network coverage. I haven't tried their 3G network yet but it shouldn't be much of a problem...in any case, in order to avoid battery drainage (consumes about 1.5 times less than 3G), you should use GSM/Edge network most of the time and only switch to 3G (or wi-fi: free in a lot of places in Paris especially) when needed for data usage. You can use "bandswitch" or other Tilt/Kaiser apps present in this forum to allow you to switch band easily.

[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] tropical cactus:
The general advice is to keep the battery between 20 - 80%. Granted, most people need a full charge to start the day and some people don't hold on to their phones for long.

Fast charging degenerates the battery faster, a fact oems omit to point out in their quest for faster charging speeds.

If you're not in a rush, you should just use a normal charger.

No damage done

And any long term effects will not be noticeable

By the time you notice any battery degeneration from keeping it at 100% you'd probably be on another phone.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] BubooBear:
hi are you rooted? if so I suggest you use an app called Battery Charge Limit. You can set when your device stops charging (preferably at 80%) and when it starts charging back up again. Again, you need root.

I was using the Diamond Keyboard for awhile and really loved it. But after awhile I noticed that the hardware keyboard was unresponsive (slow, resulting in lots of typos) with the Diamond keyboard installed.

So I tried the Touch keyboard and it kept popping up some autocomplete box while I was trying to use the hardware keyboard. I couldn't get my hardware keyboard to work at all with that one running.

[Samsung Galaxy A20 Questions & Answers] physwizz:
Antutu tells me I have an Exynos 7885 but Samsung Australia tells me I should have a 7884.

The clock speeds I have are 2 cores at 1.56 and 6 cores at 1.35 which match the 7884.

Samsung may have used the 7885 in the A20 and underclocked it.

If I actually have 7885 I should be able to get 2.2 and 1.6 with a custom kernel.

The solution:

1. Download the new zimage and hktweaks from here.

So that's Samsungs trade-off. No root but higher specs. I rather have root then a bump in specs. Hopefully you guys can port the zimage from the a205u. This phone actually is fast and responsive. I kept one just in case of a breakthrough. After using adb to debloat this phone can be a good one.

O.K Flashed boot.img and dt.img from A205U onto A205YN. Available CPU speeds are still the same as before so the supposed higher clocking of the 205U is either a figment of some software's imagination or is not dictated by the kernel (boot.img) or supporting peripheral hardware file (dt.img).

[MENTION=9333202]Agrim720[/MENTION] Attached file is unpatched and is Sept update version. It patches fine with Magisk and root is available.

The actual SoC is a 7884B as reported in /sys/devices/soc0/machine but is reported as a 7885 in different places like in /sys/devices/system/chip-ID/product_id

I really think the faster A205U is an aberration because hardware identifying apps are looking in the wrong place.

I am unable to compile a kernel for myself but if someone was to compile one with just the overclock to to M20 freqs and then to A30 freqs, I am sure there are many that would appreciate it. I see there are a few custom kernels for similar Exynos SoCs around that overclock, underclock, undervolt etc. and deal with some of the "security" rubbish too. It would be nice to have a simple custom kernel that isn't filled up with useless extra governors etc.

---------- Post added at 06:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:51 AM ----------

@physwizz Recovery has one kernel and boot has another i.e. if you boot into recovery, the kernel that is included in TWRP is used, if you boot to system the kernel that is in boot.img is used. These kernels can be (and are) different as they are never both in use at the same time.
