Hello, Im the ones that love stay with a smartphone till the end, actually I have a S4 I9505, that for some apps,tried dual boot with 7.1 but to some aps still too slow for this time.

Have just ordered a S8 from a offer found on Ebay,not received yet, just have ordered it, but have just searching about obsolescence, and have found different threads about more battery drain after update and so on..., but other experiences say that after data format/wipe cache problems gone, so I really should to know more opinions/experiences from users that have had this phone. Better stay on stock so disable auto-updates? Or just update to the last Pie through OTA then wipe data and cache, then start install my apps?

I think that must be enough users/experiences about this. Some people say updates just make the phones slower, so to you buy the last one.., others say last PIe make things more fluid.. son seems there is not that clear.... please, let me know your thoughts, recommendations from your experiences.

Thank you a lot.

Upgraded to Pie yesterday and did end up fixing my phone till 3 a.m. Pie is a minimalist's worst nightmare.

I upgraded from phone and ended in bootloop, so with Odin I managed to fix that, reinstalling firmware, but lost all my apps and settings, then took hours to restore my apps. If you upgrade, better do it before installing anything, I think.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Youdoofus:
i wouldnt fret about the updates. The S8 is a very capable phone still and has plenty of life still in it as long as the battery isnt on its way out. Im also not one to be concerned with the resetting all my apps and all that as i dont use too many and i also use the smartlock (or whatever its called. maybe samsung pass?) for my passwords and so forth on some sites and apps. If youre upgrading from an S4 to a S8, you wont be let down

I think I haven't seen a list of Applications with description regarding of the apps to remove from the firmware. I'm browsing 4PDA forum and found this and decided to share it here. Credits to Shaggyboggart of 4PDA for compiling this. You can find it's original content MOD EDIT: link removed This applicable for all xiaomi stock roms with locked bootloader who wants to stay locked and debloat their rom. It's a long list so let's start.​

1. Battery and performance

com.miui.powerkeeper

System monitor power consumption. You can delete if you realize why. When uninstalling, the Settings> Battery and Performance item will become unavailable . But you can get to it through Security> Battery . In the same menu, the item “Energy Saving” will disappear , but it actually eats more than the usual mode.

2. Security

com.miui.securitycenter

"Combine" to service the phone.

3. Browser

com.android.browser

The stock (MIUI browser) is not critical, but I highly recommend leaving it. He is better friends with MIUI services. And in general there are no requests. When deleting, you need a substitute, respectively. Unless of course you need a browser at all, then a substitute is not needed.

TOO MANY TO LIST ONE BY ONE.

Hi there!

Since the latest bigger Windows 10 update (4-5 weeks ago) Win does not recognise my phone. I can charge it, but there is no data connection between the two. I always use the latest Xiaomi.EU ROM and I can only blame the Windows for this. There no TING sound upon connection and I do not see my phone in My Computer. I tried to (re)install drivers, but does not happen to work after several updates (different versions). It really annoys me, because it's hard to transfor big or many smaller files over WiFi, but anyways I think we can all agree on the importance of cable connection.

I tried two different cables and 4 different USB slots on PC.

Does someone have the working drivers for me? :) :confused:

Thanks!
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] BranchPrediction:
I dont see my phone on my pc either but i do have a connection, as in i am able to push files to my phone with adb commands. Also i do get a ting sound when connecting but i just don't see my phone on my pc. Like 2 weeks or so ago i could see my phone on my pc but not anymore so maybe you're right about it being the windows update.

postmarketOS is Linux operating system. This system is able to turn your phone or tablet into desktop like device with touchscreen controls. You can use GNOME application from your desktop if they're adapted to smaller screen or in some cases it just work without adaptation. You can also use any terminal and GUI application from GNU/Linux if it fits your screen :)

Prerequisites:

- Linux system with ADB and USB cable

- latest (official) TWRP installed

- grouper (both HW rev. PM269 & E1565) or tilapia

Source to build from:

- https://gitlab.com/postmarketOS/pmbootstrap/

Instalation procedure:

- https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Google_Nexus_7_2012_(asus-grouper)

Note: from environment I recommend Phosh, but due to unfinished 3D acceleration, use rather Xfce4 or something X11 based (older, but works with basic acceleration).

What works:

- flashing

- USB (including OTG)

- WiFi

- Bluetooth

- LCD + Touchscreen (with rotation)

- light sensor

- NFC (should work, driver loads, initialize, no NFC device to test)

What doesn't work (yet):

- camera

- 3D support (only GL 1.4 supported -which is useless, contributors welcome), so UI is slow..

Dev docs:

- https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/The_Mainline_Kernel

Kernel sources:

- used kernel https://github.com/grate-driver/linux/

pmOS looks really cool! I'd like to install it on my grouper, and was wondering if anyone could provide me with a pmos recovery zip. The reason for this is that I unfortunately don't have a Linux machine. I can of course download an image for free and install it, but I don't have the time (too much work ?). I was reading the wiki and it looks like pmbootstrap performs poorly on WSL, so that isn't an option. I'd greatly appreciate it if anyone could provide me with a recovery installer zip for grouper (@okias do you have it by any chance?). Thanks in advance!

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] vrships:
I was trying to dowgrade my 973U1 from official Android 10 to a previous 9 version. I chose XAA CSC which I wasn't sure if it is correct and the latest 9 firmware (G973U1UES2BSKA_G973U1OYM2BSKA_XAA).

I used HOME_CSC to keep my data. Odin reported success when it was done, but the phone failed to start saying:" can't load android system. you data might be corrupted". I had to do a factory swipe and it worked.

This is where things went wrong. First the adaptive brightness was completely gone. Instead there was an "outdoor mode" toggle, which I learned was a deprecated feature in S6?? There's no mentioning it anywhere after S7. How was this even possible?? The adaptive brightness toggle in the settings is actually for outdoor mode since it just simply put the screen brightness to its maximum.

Later I found that most sensors failed to work, gyrometer,accelerometer and heart rate sensor.

Is any of this due to I flashed the (possibly different ) CSC firmware ? I am about to do another flash again, but could a bad flash bring damage to the hardware?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Youdoofus:
no. its probably just a bad flash. re-download the firmware from sammobile.com/firmwares and try it again. Use the regular CSC since youve recently used it and shouldnt disrupt too much.

factory reset from within the phones OS first, then factory reset it via stock recovery, then flash the firmware with the CSC and see whats what
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] StoneyJSG:
Wait if U1 firmware will allow a downgrade, will U firmware allow it too?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] vrships:
It turned out the home-CSC ruined it. Simply use csc, always worked and no additional reset required.

Though it doesn't matter anymore, why would HomeCSC fail every time. Doe something changed in the firmware recently so no data retention anymore?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] vrships:
Now I can downgrade it to any 9 version using odin.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Youdoofus:
you can flash anything within the same bootloader revision.

as long as theyre using the same BL revision.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Youdoofus:
im not making absolute sense out of your question, but the reason a HOME_CSC flash wouldnt work is because of the base OS change. Parts of 9 arent compatible with 10 and reverting is way different than upgrading.

To zero it out use adb shell or the termrnial app then su

To get into download mode:

Theres two ways#

1. Get into fastboot mode and set current slot to b

fastboot --set-active=b

then reboot and hold the up button while its connectrc to your pc and you should be able to get into download mode

2. Boot into twrp, then tap reboot in the menu and on the bottom it should say slot a or b and select b. Then reboot. Dont worry about not being able to mount.

First don't call a tutorial trash cause you didn't do it properly and you didn't even detail the problem properly. . Second, make sure you're still on 11g firmware or go back to 11g firmware via download mode of you're not and then flash the abl partition from the unlocked bootloader tutorial if you havent used that abl. Then fastboot flash rooted 11g boot_a and boot_b file then reboot to firmware and make sure it boots all the way up and restart your PC then try going into download mode again if it works go into fastboot flash the 21ulmd booted rooted image both a and b then immediately restart to download mod
