I just wanted to make a quick rundown of things I do to phones, even if they have a large battery.

- Go into app info, then battery, then enabled "Background Restriction" for apps that don't need to have fast notifications. I do this for apps like XDA, Feedly, Amazon etc. Given enough time Adaptive battery will do this for you, but I go in manually for any new apps or ones that I still might use frequently. (UnRooted)

- Download Naptime and enable aggressive doze. Also play around with the experimental features. I disabled location when Doze mode is enabled. (UnRooted)

- Download Servicely from the same dev. I disabled apps when my screen turns off and whitelist phone, messaging apps and other high importance apps. (Root)

- Use Tasker to automate Battery Saver Mode when your screen turns off and disable it when the screen comes back on. Naptime can also do this in the experimental settings, but I use Tasker to trigger it based on conditions like battery percentage, etc. (UnRooted)

- Install the Universal GMS Doze in Magisk. Combining this with Naptime really helps for standby. (Root)

- Install AdAway from F-Droid. This is a small thing, but less data use for pulling ads means better battery. It's a stretch, but the other benefits are no more ads! (Root)

This is what I've got done so far. Once custom kernels are released I'm going to use the Franco kernel app to make per app customizations to underclock the CPU and GPU for apps like Messages and other lite apps to really squeeze more battery.

With these optimizations I can easily make a full day. I haven't gotten a solid SOT number yet as I change in my car through Android Auto most days, but I really want to test a day completely off a charger to see what it's like.

Again, these are things I do on even large phones like the OnePlus 7 Pro and it's almost doubled my battery life on phones. Plus, these are set and forgot things and should only require a little bit of setup.

I hope this helps yall eek out some more battery out of our awesome devices! I can start to use the phone without worrying about battery anxiety.
[Google Pixel 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mohamedkam000:
Or you can just enable battery saving, and don't optimize apps you really need.
[Google Pixel 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] dubt17:
That's true, and I have it enable when the screens off. I'm not sure is restricting background use AND battery saver are doubling up and helping save more battery, but I want the option to have a light theme, so restricting battery for apps gives me that option

[Xiaomi Mi 9 SE Questions & Answers] sve84:
I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing the following issue, perhaps it's related to https://xdaforums.com/mi-9-se/help/ghost-touch-mi-9-se-t3953616 ?

Sometimes, when trying to unlock the phone from the lock screen, it will not register my touches. Or perhaps more likely, only register them partly.

First I need to swipe up to get to the unlock pattern. This step will sometimes not work at all, or sometimes swipe up a bit.

If I get past the first step and get to the pattern screen, it will no let me draw the pattern. It might recognize one of the points you're supposed to touch to draw the pattern, or it might just vibrate whenever it's touch.

Waiting a while, or furiously cleaning the screen will sometimes work, sometimes not.

Did a factory reset, but the problem came back after a few days. Sent to service (purchased from eGlobalCentral). Did another factory reset before sending it in, but they couldn't reproduce it of course, even though I gave instructions that it was intermittent and needed to be used daily for a few days after factory reset.

Wasted around $60 on this.

No touch issues when I finally manage to unlock it.

Anyone had similar issues?

سلام خسته نباشیدایا گزینه AODدرa30sوجود دارد اگه موجود هست چرا گوشی من که a30sهست موجود نیست
[Samsung Galaxy A30s Questions & Answers] philipchoynb:
Though A30s equipped with Super AMOLED display but it does not have this AOD natively built in the system..... but I found this APP "Always On AMOLED" https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tomer.alwayson&hl=en

It's quite good and very customizable and it's almost look like the stock AOD....

How it's works... when you have your phone locked and the AOD on... you just have to double-tap on the screen or press the power button also you may simply tap on the simulated home key on the screen to wake the phone... then you may use your pin/pattern/face/fingerprint to unlock your phone.

[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Cycomachead:
For whatever reason my battery life is only being reported in 10% increments. Anyone have any idea as to why? AFAIK, it hasn't been removed, right? Searching didn't turn up anything.

Also my battery life seems shorter, but it could be the battery.

The backlight issue has been there for a while and I've tracked it down to installing HTCHome (the one from this forum) How can I fix this? Uninstalling seems to fix it and i've tried to save and recopy the exe and dll for the backlight, but recopying didn't work.

I haven't installed much recently except for the Diamond large start menu and Adobe 2.5 from the diamond. Further back I installed the 2.0 task manager with big buttons. But I don't know how long it hasn't been working right.

I'm using DCD 3.1.2 and radio 3.35 on an xv6800.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] neophyte.vii:
10% increments are the WM6 default. A special battery.dll was created [I believe by no2chem] and integrated in the previous DCD ROMs.. but for some reason it was pulled.

Battery life with 3.1.2 has been fine. It's your battery. Be sure to keep it well charged*, never let it dip below 30%! If you notice it's wearing thin -edit- it may simply be the indicator reading your battery incorrectly, in which case a full discharge / recharge will allow the phone to more accurately read the charge level. Regardless, your battery is under warranty and I suggest taking advantage of that and starting fresh with a strong initial charge.

Could you be more specific about this backlight issue?

*battery is optimally stored [for longest life] around 40% capacity.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gc14:
The 1% battery dll was not added to 3.1.2 by accident. It's fixed in the next release. In the mean time, you can manually add it to the 3.1.2 kitchen by going into the 3.0.4 kitchen's OEM\OEMDrivers folder and copying the battery.dll and battdrvr.dll folders to 3.1.2 kitchen's OEM\OEMDrivers folder overwriting the ones in there.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Zenoran:
I must comment on this with my questions because there are so many theories going around on what the proper way to handle this is...

first question.. you say don't let it go below 30%??? I thought it was GOOD to have it drained down to nothing every once in a while then doing a full charge?

second question.. DEEP charge? 24-48hours? seriously? I know it's good to always start with a full charge on the battery but does it really matter going beyond the full mark (a few hours I think?)...

Reason I'm really curious about this is because I just had VZW send me a new battery but I haven't unpacked it yet because I wanted to make sure I had the time to give it a good initial charge (over night). I'm not so sure I can go 24-48hrs without my phone but if it really makes a difference I might consider it?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] shield001:
I've noticed on my phone once it hit's 30% itll drop to 0% fast and i cannot use my phone for a couple hours because it'll take forever to hit 5% to turn the radio on
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] neophyte.vii:
Well, since you took me up on it I am doing some academic research on the mechanisms Li-ion batteries use..

I do work in a cellphone store, and had the following experience with my battery:

First battery, charging method was improper and under regular use lasted no more than 7 hrs resulting in multiple charges per day.

Replacement battery came in, and underwent a lengthy initial charge because I had a second titan handy. 48 hrs.

I was amazed to find my battery life at around 3 days regular use.

I kept my phone charge above 30-40%, charging _regularly_ [once all night, with occasional top-ups during the day] and find the capacity has not changed.

Take from that what you will. Certainly, the length of time I charged my battery initially was probably not strictly necessary, but.. I'll do some more research and report back.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] neophyte.vii:
FYI, the majority of people with dead batteries who walk into my store are typically under the impression the batteries need to be near-fully [or fully? which is it, huh?] drained before recharge.

Which is _incorrect_ as it is only NiCad & Nickel Metal-Hydride batteries that suffered the memory effect.

It is worth mention that my first battery was often dying, which only seemed to exacerbate the issue.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] ebb:
Most make the mistake of running it down because previous generations of batteries worked that way. I have a dock that I got months ago (can't remember from where, but you can find it on the forums) that charges the device and a spare battery in a 2nd slot at the same time. That gets around the issue of not having your phone while the battery charges.

battery.dll and 0% battery

I completely screwed up. I was messing with the battery.dll file and ended up witout any battery monitoring whatsoever, and I'm not sure if the battery is even charging.

I restored my most recent backup (Sprite) and the battery is still "no status"

I took the battery out and reset, no luck.

I tried to flash a new rom, and I get [error 220] "battery less than 50% ...."

I know that the battery is at least 80%, so I figured that the battery problem is not letting the RUU run.

Is there a way to bypass the RUU error's,

I just yesterday lost my spare SDcard that I used for flashing. So that's out.

The only card I have is an SDHC (4GB)

anyone have any suggestions???

My ignorance is once again confirmed. a simple hard reset fixed the trick.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gc14:
It's a simple copy/paste. You copy the 2 folders out of 3.0.4 OEM\OEMDrivers and paste them into 3.1.2 OEM\OEMDrivers overwriting the current ones in there. Then you just cook your rom like usual and flash.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] azclown:
Jefferson - To bypass the RUU error - Put your phone in bootloader mode (POWER + CAMERA + RESET) Tricolor screen. Now plug the phone into the PC and run the RUU. It should run fine.....

GC - The RUU won't run with the phone already booted into windows cuz it tries to read the battery level and can't....
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gc14:
Oh right...it's been so damn long since I've flashed with an RUU I forgot it's dumb like that and needs 50% battery. :D
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Zenoran:
I guess the part about having to "deep charge" for 24-48hrs is not accurate...

Hi all. I replaced my battery, put the phone back together, and turned it on. Everything looked fine until I tried to use the touchscreen. It wouldn't register any touch.

[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] kt-Froggy:
I have replaced the cracked screen on my PH-1 without issues... Since you are seeing the same problem with TWO different screens, I would check the connector on the board. Could be something like small piece of debris or dust or whatever. Remove the cable, and try inspecting it with a magnifying glass, if you can. Might be able to use a wooden toothpick to *carefully* clean it up, but I would only recommend that if you can actually see it well. You could also just blow a couple of shots of compressed air into it.

Other than that, I have no ideas, sorry...
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] IronRoo:
might need a factory reset as this recilibrates the screen, back up ail your data first of course (pics, chats, game data etc). Not sure if recalibration apps still work, might be worth a shot first.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] rambleon84:
I had the same issue after replacing the screen. Someone on reddit mentioned the same problem and used a bit of foam behind the screen and its connection. I took a razor and trimmed a mm or two thick of some soft foam (used the foam that the screen was packaged in) and placed it over the connector. Touch was back after that, so it was an issue with the connection not being snug enough for me. Been over a month and everything is fine
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] anastasisg:
Hi, so about a week ago I updated my S8 and everything was fine. But then while I was making a phone call it shut down. I tried to make it power up but got stuck at the Samsung Galaxy S8 powered by Android screen. No matter what I did I couldn't get passed this screen.

I can't access Recovery Mode. I can access Download Mode tho. I tried flashing stock firmware, it flashed but nothing happened I got the same screen.

I flashed latest firmware downloaded from Frija. I didn't flash the wrong firmware because I tripled checked it with the information gotten from the Download Mode screen.

OEM and FRP locked, so suggesting TWRP is useless (believe me I tried).

Also, I charged the phone fully, nothing happened. I let the phone discharge completely then connected it to the computer, nothing happened. Lastly, I tried flashing combination firmware but it failed every time because my FRP is locked.

Is there anything I could possibly do?

You need root, but this should work on stock. If you're rooted and have a terminal emulator on the device just run the same command without the adb shell part.

Someone on Reddit figured out how to enable RCS on any Android phone on any carrier!

https://www.reddit.com/r/UniversalP...a2v8r?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share

You'll need an app called Activity Launcher: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.szalkowski.activitylauncher

I suggest you turn off WiFi before setup

Steps:

1.) Enroll in Messages Beta and install

2.) Download Activity Launcher

3.) Clear the data of 'Carrier Services' and force stop 'Android Messages.'

4.) Open Activity Launcher

5.) Tap 'Recent Activities,' and in the menu choose 'All Activities.'

6.) Look for 'Messages'

7.) Tap it, then scroll until you find 'Set RCS Flags'

8.) After pressing it select 'ACS Url"' and in the menu select 'http://rcs-acs-prod-us.sandbox google.com/.'

9.) Select OTP Pattern, and in the menu click, YourlsMessenger\sverification\scode\sis\sG-(\d {6}).

10.) Click Apply

11.) Follow setup in Messages. Will take around three minutes.

Ok, so I just flashed Dutty's 4/29 rom not too long ago.

So far it has been great. But I have one thing I would like to change.

The signal icon at the top of the screen integrates the G/E/3G/H indicator for data. Is there a way to disable the larger Square G/E/3G/H indicator next to that? I feel there is no need to have both, and the less clutter at the top the better.

Here is a screenshot with the icon in question highlighted in the red box:

Normally I would search, but I did not know what to call that icon, and searching "disable data icon" did not get me where I wanted to go.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Also on a related note....

Is there a way to seperate out the multiple notifications.

Is there a way to seperate those out by default?

My device always lags when I switch app to another.

I am not even talk about games.

Also network throughput is very very poor. Many time I need to wait very much to open some website (LTE is available). I think modem has poor performance, it is not so extensive like in top models...

It is from the beginning of this device...

I am really dissapointed.

My a2 is perfect. No problems at all.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Lunatiic:
I found out that a couple of things helped to improve the overall system smoothness on my mi a2:

1) Disable Digital Wellbeing. It had some performance issues a couple of months ago, don't know if it was fixed, but since I never used it, I kept it disabled.

2) Go to Settings>Network & internet>Wi-Fi>Wi-Fi Preferences and disable 'Turn on Wi-Fi automatically', as well as Wi-Fi and Bluetooth scanning under Location.

3) Check apps that have Notification Access, I had a bank app that was using the notification access for "security purposes" but it was making the phone lag a lot.

4) Uninstall apps that you don't use and run in the background constantly.

Hope this helps you, cheers.
