[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] ludovich:
This works flawlessly with 6.0 based ROMs, but with any of the 6.1 flavored ROMs I have tried, the pairing process fails. Is there something fundamentally different between 6.0 and 6.1 in the BT stack that would explain this? Any tweaks you might know of that could fix the problem? Basically, while pairing, the car system sends a "Authorization Unsuccesful" message and the phone rejects the pairing. Because of that I am stuck with 6.0.

ok. it might souns weird but:

I found that paring while your phone is in call (call in progress) will give you better results.

Also, i have seen reports that while phone is in call paring with TomTOM GO will ofer even DUN option while it does not normally offered on majority of WM6.x handsets. (DUN is available on Diamond phones).

I cannot confirm the DUN phenomenon, but paring works def better for me while in call.

I have no logical expanation to this.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] Giorno Giovanna:
Hello,

this is a tricky issue because is not recurrent but I'm not able to figure out the reason why.

I have tried already all the workaround (cache cleaned, reinstalling app, granted all the permissions, reboot device) still no luck.

When I receive a whatsapp call and I answer the screen turns black but sometimes (many times) when I put far from my ear the display is still black. I need to click 2-3 times the power button in order to switch on the display.

I have checked the promixity sensor and it works, yet I have calibrated again. So is not a hardware issue.

The pocket mode is NOT enabled.

As I said this is not happened every time but many times.

Someone experiences the same issue?
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] DBuffon:
The method described by _mysiak_ in this thread for the Mi A1 works for the Mi A3 too.

The led will not stay lit when charging, while it will work as usual (blinking for notifications) when not in charge.

I attach two macros for those who use MacroDroid instead of Tasker. Those using Tasker can simply follow _mysiak_'s instructions on the original thread

Hope this helps!
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] FR Ray:
Are you able to post some basic instructions on how to install the two files for a brand new Macrodroid user like me? Thanks so much! I'm keen to get this mod working.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] DBuffon:
Sorry for the late reply, I hope you solved the problem by yourself.

Anyway it's pretty easy: just unpack the zip files, move the two macro files on your device and just click on them using your favorite file explorer to open them in macrodroid.

Or simply use the "import" function in macrodroid.
[Magisk] ashergray:
Hi All,

I'm using Android 10 and I'm trying to replace an APK in /product/priv-app/[folder]/ but I can't do it through terminal as the folder is read-only, so I thought I would try Magisk. I'm unable to find an example of this type of replacement, and my obvious attempts using the REPLACE list in the install.sh or through the normal folder structure fails. Is this even possible or have you seen something similar?

I've tweeted at TopJohnWu in case this is a limitation of the systemless root and also posted another thread in the Pixel 4xl Mod forum with a similar request for help. If your interested I've modified the code for the new Motion Sense gesture app to integrate with Tasker through intents.

Hello,

My new pixel 4xl is working great except for 2 reasons. The main one being I don't get turn by turn voice navigation. I get no voice at all when navigating. COnsidering I drive for Uber on the side this is very bad.

I checked all settings and they are all correct as far as I can tell - play over bluetooth and everything is on. Doesn't matter if I am on BT or not, nothing. I've tried rebooting of course.

Help?

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] venom22:
Sorry if this is a repeat question. I looked through the archive, but couldn't find this question.

I haven't bought the Tilt yet, but what I want to be able to do is take a Tilt have it be connected to the 3G network and then connect to my wireless router as well. From there I would connect my laptop to the same wireless router but somehow use the 3G internet connection on the laptop. Is this easily doable?

I want to do this since when I get home I want to just keep the phone in one location where I get good reception and then be able to use my laptop where ever I move it in my house without having to move the phone and risk losing connection.

I will be buying a tethering plan.

Thanks for the help.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] XtreMe_G:
yes

but let me get this straight, you want to connect it this way

3G->tilt->router->pc

why do that when you can do

3G->tilt->pc

search for ics control, or wmwifirouter
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] venom22:
Yes I was thinking the first way. I am not opposed to the second way, but I was curious how much range will a tilt give me as far as broadcasting on wifi?

I often watch tv in my basement and wasn't sure if the tilt wifi would be able to travel as well as my router which has an external antenae. Range was the only reason I introduce the router. It seems wmwifirouter may support what I want to do.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ChumleyEX:

[Galaxy Tab S General] nauvho:
I have this tabled for a long time, but as i rarely used it i didn't bother with it much. From day one back in 2014 the tablet was sluggish and laggy, today is just unbearable even for browsing. So i have decided to take a look of what can i do.

I have installed the latest (10.26.2019) LineageOS-14.1-Deathly with gapps nano.

I have installed CPU Throttling Test from the play store and start testing to see what's going on. I saw that the CPU Throttle instantly (like in 10-15 sec max) from 1900mhz to 600mhz, and this is where the sluggishness comes from, the CPU is constantly throttled no matter that you are just looking at a simple web page.

I started playing with the Deathly Adiutor and under-voltage the cpu, set the max to 1400mhz and this is where it is stable as it is. At 1400mhz constant 100% CPU stress the CPU temps are around 90c (at 95 the cpu starts throttling). Anything above 1400mhz even with under voltages CPU results in throttling within 1-2 min, but even like that at 1400mhz and GPU set to be always used and at minimum of 480mhz (with setting in dev options to always use gpu for 2d composition) the performance was really much much better then the stock settings.

I have continued to play with it and noticed that if i apply pressure with my fingers on the back panel just below the camera where is the most hottest, the temps are dropping 10-15C, so i have opened it and i saw the issue.

The issue is that the metal shield radiators does not make a good contact with the thermal pad on the back panel, and thus can't dissipate the heat well. This may variety from user to user as some back panels will make better or worse contact, but its far from ideal.

Its good that i have some spare thermal pads around and i have applied them, and the result is perfect, drop in 12-17Cfrom stock setup under continues stress.

As a final result i have managed to bump the CPU from 1400mhz to 1600mhz with 1087mV voltage and at max 84C (down from around 90 at 1400mhz) at constant 100% CPU stress. The performance gains are around 100 to 150% (At around 42-47k GIPS up from 20-25k GIPS stock in CPU Throttling test). Additionally i have to say, its extremely easy to open the back cover panel.

Furthermore, i made an video to see how it runs and the settings i use.

I'm attaching before and after the mod photos.

[Galaxy Tab S General] rihui:
Awesome.. I followed ur recommendations and set 1087mv at 1600mhz and its fasttttt
[Galaxy Tab S General] nauvho:
Thanks mate. I'm glad it helps :cool: According to 3DMark, the performance now is slightly better then Galaxy Tab A 2019, it really bring new life to this tablet and its ready to rock another couple of years ;)
[Galaxy Tab S General] rihui:
how's your battery life with minimum CPU speed at 1600

Screen on & Standby time?
[Galaxy Tab S General] nauvho:
Its not the minimum CPU frequency that gives you the performance boost, its the maximum frequency limit at 1600mhz down from 1900mhz, as i explained, to gain the performance, you need to avoid CPU from overheating and throttle down itself to the ground.

That's why the max frequency with the thermal pads and improved thermals is 300mhz below the stock 1900mhz

, and without the pads my max stable frequency were 1400mhz (500mhz below stock).

The minimum frequency will only smooth out initial animations and things like that, but don't have much of an impact on the overall performance. With that said, increasing the minimum frequency ofc will eat more battery and you don't need it, you can safely set it to 650mhz (as low as it allows) and depending on your kernel governor policy should have the same or better battery life. As i said, the main gainer is preventing the CPU from overheating at 1900mhz and throttle down to 650mhz where it sits most of the time with stock settings.

In fact if you limit your max frequency to 1400 or 1600mhz depending on your stable thermal results, and set minimum to 650mhz, you will see the performance gain AND significantly increased battery life due to that CPU does not go to 1900mhz and does not eat that much power and voltage. You really need to fine tune it depending on your needs, but at stock CPU throttling down to 650mhz and staying there is an manufacturer (Samsung) failure, and if i were discovered this when i bought it, i would wanted refund, as they advertise 1900mhz CPU which almost never works at that frequency.

I tested this method on other tablets and phones, and while it happens on other devices to throttle down after 5-7 mins (not after 15 sec), i have never seen to throttle more then down to 80% of the advertised frequency, but the Tab S goes almost immediately down to 35% where it stays and cripple the device. Its really really bad engineering from Samsung.
[Galaxy Tab S General] Clarkie_955i:
Going to try this.

Thanks

[Galaxy Tab S General] osutx427:
What thickness of thermal pad should I buy? Probably will buy from Amazon unless I need to make a trip to Microcenter. Thanks for this suggestion [MENTION=4389911]nauvho[/MENTION]
[Galaxy Tab S General] nauvho:
Well as you can see on the picture, the CPU bed already has one black pad by Samsung by default which is around 0.2/0.3mm i think, but it does not make contact, so i put on the CPU radiator 1mm pad and on the other radiators i put 0.5mm to equalize in case my pad is too thick. Your guide should be how easy is to close the back-plate, if you need too much force you may need thinner. So i guess you can take 0.3, 0.5 and 1mm pads.
[Galaxy Tab S General] heynando:
effing A
[Galaxy Tab S General] joelcool69:
Wow

Applied the same settings that you show in the video and WOW! It's like a new tablet. I didn't even put thermal pads. :)
[Galaxy Tab S General] nauvho:
nice :)
[Galaxy Tab S General] louis_alphons:
just rooted t800 with MM + trw + SU.

added some thermal pads like in the pics.

installed Deathly Adiutor ....which said that doesn't like the kernel..and doesn't let to change the cpu max speed, and the voltage page doesn't even exist

installed Kernel Adiutor from playstore with which I can lower the freq, and for 1600 it works 1-2min at 27-28000GIPS then starts to throttle
[Galaxy Tab S General] nauvho:
Why are you using MM? Also, did you noticed that center pad is thicker and side ones are tinnier? what are your CPU temps? Also probably due to MM, but I'm getting around 42gpis (average) at 1.6, but you should really check your pads placement, thickness and temps, put the CPU under load note the temps before throttling down.
[Galaxy Tab S General] louis_alphons:
I'm using MM since I don't know if it worth to upgrade; does this LineageOS work well...all features (cam, scanner, soud etc) works with it?

used 1mm pad over the cpu... 0.5 otherwise (china made); also removed the small factory pad and placed another pad patch there; the back cover heats well and I assume that the heat doesn't have where to go.

since it's not throttling at 1600MHZ (almost 100%, take a look at the pic)...from where to get more than 28GIPS?
[Galaxy Tab S General] nauvho:
I don't think removing the stock black pad were a good idea, I did not removed mine, my pad is next to it. Also CPU throttle app is not reliable to monitor cpu temp (at least for me) , you should do it by starting the throttle test and then switch to deathly auditor and monitor the temp and clock there or other app like CPUz or Aida. Look at the video how I monitored the temp. The CPU will start throttle at 93-95c so your temp of 81 cannot be accurate if it throttle. Didn't you said that you throttle at 1.6 in your previous post?

Regarding the performance I think it might be eigher app difference between mm and 7.1 or due to MM itself. And yes everything is working perfectly for me with lineage, camera, fingerprint, everything is fine and it is mile better then MM imo.
[Galaxy Tab S General] louis_alphons:
installed 7.1

pcmark 4330 with your mods.

so the thermal pads doesn't matter on MM.

from my testings on 7.1 the boost in pcmark comes form setting max freq 1600 + undervoltage (3000->3500), and another boost...by setting the lower freq to 1600 (3500->4300)
[Galaxy Tab S General] nauvho:
Nice.

About the pads, they matter only if the CPU temp under load drops when you apply pressure with fingers on the back cover as i explained in my first post, but idk if this apply to all tablets or just mine. The boost comes from not throttling the CPU down and being stable at maximum possible frequency. The CPU can go up to 1900mhz and beyond (2.1 by spec), but the cooling is not enough for that frequencies.

I think that adding an 0.5-1mm copper heat pipe thru radiators or copper heat pads similar to flagship phones might push it to 1.9, will order some someday and try it.
[Galaxy Tab S General] louis_alphons:
now it will be interesting ?% it's the termal mod in this boost, which means, performing the test in PCMARK only with steps 1+2:

1. LineageOS-14.1-Deathly

2. Deathly Adiutor (which requires step 1) + CPU max freq 1600 + undervoltage at that freq + CPU min freq 1600

3. Thermal pads added inside the box.

Since I started with thermal pads...I can say that in MM it doesn't matter.

-after upgrade to 7.1 as I said..PC...MArk around 3000 (thermal pads mounted)

-after setting max freq 1600 + undervoltage I got a boost in PCMark to 3600

-in addition, with min freq 1600...got another boost..to 4300; in this turbo state..the battery drains quickly, but the interface it's fast like the wind.

PCMark doesn't use CPU at 100%, it counts also how fast cand do certain short tasks...and this matters because if CPU it's in it's low power states..it loose time to rise its freq and do the calc at full power.
[Galaxy Tab S General] nauvho:
Thermal mode does matter alot, CPU thermals is everything, the lower temps are, the higher frequency you can push the CPU, more frequency = more performance. As i said, without the thermal pads i could not get 1.6ghz to be stable, only 1.4 were stable-ish.

In stock rom, CPU governor and states are set according to the temps with the stock cooling. But if you don't change settings it wont change much. However Samsung engineers did a terrible job with those default settings, so as i explained in my first post only doing the software changes had dramatic impact on the performance because you get the CPU stable even at 1.4, but the thermal mod push it further to 1.6

The true performance benchmark is the 3DMARK (my screenshots 3 and 4 for score "ice storm unlimited" test and "Sling Shot" test) this will push your CPU and GPU to the max, PCMark is more about daily use performance and also can be used to measure battery performance between different settings.

Yes leaving CPU with minimum of 1.6 will drain battery more quickly naturally, is using more power, i leave mine at 1.2 as minimum, but minimum speed should not matter much in benchmarks if you are using the same as mine CPU governor. CPU governor basically tells the CPU how to behave, like how quickly to rise the frequency, for how long and etc.
[Galaxy Tab S General] Blaze Viper:
Yes, Mali T628. The six core version in this tablet is actually very capable but very hot. Here is a picture of the copper plate before final cuts to make the subwoofer fit. I can now run 1.9/600 with this mod. I will post pictures of cpu/gpu states. Under full load, I do not go beyond 77c.
[Galaxy Tab S General] Bigdrago:
I did the same. Itis so much better cooling now👌
[Galaxy Tab S General] Blaze Viper:
2100mhz with full CPU GPU load isn't doable, it reaches 90c and crashes but 2000mhz CPU and 600mhz GPU is just barely possible with some very cheeky undervolting. It hovers around 85c stable.
[Galaxy Tab S General] Bigdrago:
That is good.

Just updated mine to lineageos20. Trying to find the deathly app with no luck :/

Have you tried measure the heating with protection cover around the tablet?
[Galaxy Tab S General] Blaze Viper:
Just stick to HazouPH's Los 17. There's really no need to run a more modern android in a device this old plus his build passes safteynet. Deathly Auditor only exists on DarkExistence and HazouPH's Roms.

As for the back cover, it is already fitted and there are no changes in performance as the plate is massive at nearly 100g, it has no issues with heat soak.
