I know that the G8343 is the Canadian version, but as far as I can tell, it's almost exactly the same device. I found a good deal on one, a decent bit cheaper than the US G8341. Will there be any issues or differences (other than the fingerprint reader)?

[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] fabricio7p:
One thing i've always wanted to know is if we plug our phones at 100% battery it still uses power from the battery and keep charging it over and over. Or if it uses power directly of the wall without consuming battery.

I want to use my phone for longer periods but im worried about battery health in the long run
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] redpoint73:
The common recommendation for battery health on most smartphones with Li ion battery, is to charge often (avoid deep discharge/charge cycles), and

not

leave it on the charger for long periods of time when it is fully charged.

When connected to the charger and fully charged, it will let the battery drop slightly, then recharge, over and over again. I've seen the battery meter on this phone drop down from 100% to 99% when connected to the charger. Although I have a feeling it is doing this a lot more than you would be able to detect from the % meter.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] fabricio7p:
I see, so no aparent benefit in using it with power cable conected.

thank you
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] redpoint73:
In fact, more likely to be harmful than beneficial. I'd say it is better to use it for a while, let the charge drop (say down to 60-80%) than recharge to full, and disconnect the charger (don't leave it charging after it is full).

I should add that this is somewhat debatable. I don't follow all these rules myself. I'm pretty sloppy about putting the phone on the charger when I go to bed, and not unplugging it until I wake up. So plugged in for 8 hours or so, when it only takes 1-2 hours to charge to full. And we all drain the battery pretty low from time to time. So again, the is the deep discharging that should generally be avoided.

But if you want general guidelines or "best practice" than there it is.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Andronikou:
I think its good idea to leave phone charging
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] eyalsa:
If you want to charge the battery to the top end, you can charge it to 100%, let half a hour for the battery to cool and for the ions to set into some equilibrium state, and then you can charge it for a little bit more. (The battery percentage will not necessarily show it. The battery voltage is not all the time 100% correlated with its electric charge).

But as redpoint73 said, the common recommendation for Li ion battery is to disconnect it from charger while full.

Suggestions for improving software for Huawei Watch GT 2

1 : Sync all the contacts on the phone , not just 10 contacts

2 : If the phone is in silent mode, the watch should be in silent mode also

3 : Add an application to record audio clips through the built-in microphone with the watch

4 : When the Bluetooth connection with the watch is lost , there will be alert for that by vibration and msg , and there should also be an alert when the Bluetooth connection returns again

5 : Show full notification text not part of it

thanks
[Huawei Watch] adamelphick:
Re: Suggestions for improving software for Huawei Watch GT 2

I think you're ideas are great so I've put my thoughts on each one. Hopefully more people will comment!

1 : Sync all the contacts on the phone , not just 10 contacts

Great idea but remember smart watches don't have huge storage. We have 2.1gb free I believe on initial startup.

2 : If the phone is in silent mode, the watch should be in silent mode also

Absolutely agree...

3 : Add an application to record audio clips through the built-in microphone with the watch

Again need to think of memory restraints, but a low bit rate 'voice notes' facility would be cool.

4 : When the Bluetooth connection with the watch is lost , there will be alert for that by vibration and msg , and there should also be an alert when the Bluetooth connection returns again

Agreed. Goodness knows why there isn't already!

5 : Show full notification text not part of it

Agreed. Plus the ability to reply maybe? I loved this in my Huawei Watch 1.

6. I'd also add... Bring NFC to GT2's outside China! I'm guessing it's the same hardware, just disabled in the OS!

7. Add SPO2 (oxygen saturation of the blood) - as this is mentioned as an option in at least one how to for the watch... Is it China only again?

Let's hope Huawei monitors this forum and gets some ideas to improve Lite OS further.
[Huawei Watch] heints:
Im really missing the "next calendar appointment" feature on this watch. I had the vector, that had a "calendar app" and an upcoming event widget on the watchface of the Vector Luna. Just bought a GT2 and didn't realise that I actually will start to miss the calendar appointment info so much :( heads up Huawei!

Otherwise its a suitable upgrade for me from Luna (with broken screen)
[Huawei Watch] Davidtre07:
Agree with your proposals,

from my side it would also be great if we could have an airplane mode
[Huawei Watch] gaminos:
- Ability to set custom watch faces with standard app

- Ability to access details on screens accessed with left/right slides

- Ability to have lamp torch light progressive to avoid dazzling

- Ability to have more video controls with chromecast/netflix
[Huawei Watch] adamelphick:
Great ideas.

Hopefully the custom faces will be with us very soon once the Chinese beta closes. [emoji1696]
[Huawei Watch] gaminos:
And also :

- show full sender on notifications

- show smileys (and photos?) in notifications

- avoid duplicates in notifications (in whatsapp for instance)

- ability to delete notification from summary without going to details

- navigate directly through notifications details without returning to summaries

- use more space for titles in sound/video control

- ability to customize main menu entries, and set others in a folder

:)
[Huawei Watch] djtalls:
adding an interval timer (high interval, low interval, warm up, cool down, number of reps or infinite reps)
[Huawei Watch] hawkerpaul:
1. CUSTOM WATCH FACES!!!!

2. In addition to silent as already mentioned, sync Do Not Disturb settings from phone to watch

3. Ability to set function to buttons double-click (Eg. I set down button to flashlight, but this isn't of much use during the day)

4. Ability to define your own timeout for the watchface to turn off after.

5. "Shake wrist to wake screen" as well as "Raise wrist" option...If both are set, then need to do both

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] somerandomboi:
Almost a month ago, my phone ran out of battery so I charged it. When I got back, there was a warning sign and below it said: "the system has been destroyed"

I tried everything I could to flash it, included the official Xiaomi flash tool, but the problem isn't the method itself, but the phone, which it's not being recognized by my pc at all.

When I connect it (In fastboot mode), a notification shows up saying: "The USB device is not recognized", I tried commands, updating the drives, cleaning up the USB port, another USB cable, but nothing worked.

Does anyone know any possible solution for this? Thanks in advance : D
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] MrHarveen:
faulty usb cable may be the reason and try edl mode
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] somerandomboi:
I have already tried with other cables (and all of them are working for everything except this, so it's the device's fault), and edl mode can only be activated with a computer, so i guess i'll keep trying
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] dinesh4299:

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] pramod verma:
Same problem bro
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Thelm76:
Hi!

There is a way to enable EDL mode without computer but you'll have to open your phone.

Once opened, you must short two specific test points while connecting USB.

That's how I got out of a bootloop with a locked bootloader.

For the procedure just search for "edl test point mi a1", there are many videos.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] CrazyEightOrZero:
While attempting to update my (new to me) used, AT&T-branded S10, SM-G973U, to android 10, I ran into an issues. I can still use and boot the phone into android 9, but I cannot enter download mode (at boot, hold all 3 buttons goes to warning. If press up, download mode fails, and message reads: 'An error has occurred while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch software.' If press down, phone will boot normally).

I've installed and attempted to use Samsung's Smart Switch, but the 'device initialization' tab is no longer present in the latest versions of the software. Posts related to this issue where present in the S7 forums, where I found a link to the last version of Smart Switch that provides this functionality. On this older version, after I enter the model and serial, smart switch just closes after I click OK. Nothing happens.

Any advice from those that know better?

Am I just completely SOL ?

Thanks in advance, I really appreciate any input.

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] StoneyJSG:
Are you using the modified patched version of Odin? It's a must for the S10 line. Also, your country/product code is CHA for Charter. It should be ATT if you're on AT&T. Official AT&T firmware is hard to find as it's not released to Samsung's website.

If you're on ASI6, then boot to recovery and do a data factory reset. Once the phone boots after that and if your AT&T SIM card is in, connect it to wifi and check for software updates in settings. If all goes well it should just OTA update to Android 10.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] CrazyEightOrZero:
The factory reset did restore the download mode, thanks so much!

Actually, I stated AT&T since the startup logo, and bloatware all indicated AT&T.

Just to confirm, which is the correct ODIN version for the Galaxy S10? Does the ODIN version depend on the current firmware of the phone, or the firmware version that you want to upload?

Even the website odindownload.com has 4 versions listed, and sammobile.com has 3.14.1 listed.

Other threads mentioned a version called Odin3_v3.13.1_3B . [And I feel like the person who came up with that version numbering scheme should be our next president]

I'm not actually on AT&T or Charter, so I don't think any updates will ever come thru.

I still have more questions before I try again, but I will create a new thread.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] StoneyJSG:
No problem! If your boot logo is AT&T then you're on the AT&T firmware only with the charter country code. If you flash the AT&T country code (it's hard to find unless you wanna pay for it at www.gsm2file.com like I did), you should be able to OTA to Android 10 if you have an AT&T SIM card inserted.

The Odin version you need to flash ANY U.S. S10 firmware is 3.13.1_3B_patched and it can be found within the bowels of the forum here. You can only flash firmware that's for the U.S. snapdragon models (Sammy unlocked, Sprint, AT&T, cricket, Verizon, etc.) Do not try to flash other countries firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] CrazyEightOrZero:
I found 3.13.1_3B_patched in another forum, and will provide the link here, just in case it might help anyone else.

- xdaforums.com/android/software/patched-odin-3-13-1-t3762572

I was feeling courageous and still wanted to remove the AT&T branding by moving the firmware over to XAA. [ I had hoped a wifi update would update me to the latest 10, and I could feel confident updates would happen further down the road. ]

The update failed (see log below), so now I must confirm:

-- Firmwares for G973U1 and G973U are interchangeable?

-- I should use ODIN version v3.13.1_3B_PatcheD and not v3.13.3_3B_PatcheD ?

A slightly new screen prompt on my phone reboot allowed me to clear user data and perform a user data wipe, and now the phone is back to operational.

I downloaded the last android 9 version of XAA, located here. :

https://www.sammobile.com/samsung/galaxy-s10/firmware/SM-G973U1/XAA/download/G973U1UES2BSKA/304714/

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] StoneyJSG:
Yes, U firmware and U1 firmware are interchangeable. Just be sure you're on the same bootloader as to what you're going to flash. If you're currently on bootloader 2 you can only flash bootloader 2 firmware. Same goes for bootloader 1. If you don't want AT&T bloatware, then flash the latest U1 build which I think is Android 10 or flash the latest Android 9 U1 firmware and see if it lets you OTA to Android 10. You can use any patched version of Odin, I just recommended 3.13.1 because that's the version I have.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] CrazyEightOrZero:
Well, my bootloader is 2, based on what I found. And every firmware I have tried so far has been the same luckily. But still another failure attempt with latest Android 10 (G973U1UES2CSL1_G973U1OYM2CSL1_XAA).

I also tried Odin3 v3.13.3_3B_PatcheD.zip, but had the same failure and recovery process.

I'm completely stuck on any ideas as to how to change this firmware. Is this the new norm for Samsung phones with branding, or is this specific to AT&T?

As always, thanks for your time and patience.

Just to confirm:

- I must load all 4 sections with ODIN: AP, BL, CP, CSC? I have never tried or ever read about partially loading...

- Windows versions don't matter right? Guess I'll try another computer to run ODIN on?

How to determine bootloader:

Look at baseband version in software information under phone info in settings.

Bootloader (BL) version is 5th digit from right:

In my case baseband is G973USQS2ASI6, so my BL version is 2

In the end, it is advisable to make fastboot -w (reset to factory)

Disable auto-update after installation, otherwise you will get a brick

A fastboot only works with blocking downloads, until it runs out and is not overloaded until it concludes that they will be software protected. There will be positive results and will work with a closed bootloader on the forum.
