[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Frick_trump:
Theoretically, if you update your phone from OTA and something goes wrong, then it's possible that the problem won't be fixed by a factory reset because the files it's "restoring" from are already corrupt in some way.

When you clean install through odin, you are flashing the entire OS and replacing every file in the filesystem. This can solve a lot of random problems when Android phones get updated from one flavor to another, i.e, Android 8 -> 9, or 9-> 10.

A lotmof people here disagree that factory reset and a clean install are different. But I disagree with them. If you only update through OTA, then it's entirely possible something can be "corrupt" in the filesystem.

This is because OTA updates are "block based", so instead of replacing all of the files for an update, only the modified "blocks" of data are downloaded and installed. So over time, it's possible to get a bad OTA update that doesn't clean up prior conflicting files, or something like that.

Just my 0.02$
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] metaleloi666:
My phone is not rooted. Can I update from Odin still?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Mr.Vag:
Ofc you can. No root needed.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] metaleloi666:
I didn't do factory reset or clean install so far.

This is weird. Today, I was off work and I nearly had 8 hours SoT. Screen off time seems to be improving too. Still, got some wifi bugs today, it shut off a few times for no reason while being home.

But just before posting this, I got a random reboot.... Hmmmm...... Never had a random reboot while on Android 9.

Looks like I'll have to do this reset or clean install....
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Mr.Vag:
Yep..always must leave phone 1-2 days to see exactly how battery is.

For my opionion just reset your phone and you'll be fine.

Do a reset from recovery if you want..

Vol up + Bixby + power buttons.. and pick factory reset ... :)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Frick_trump:
I prefer odin, because unlike a factory reset, you can use the HOME_CSC file and keep you apps and settings intact, while re writing the filesystem for system. If that fixes things then no need to re set up your device, saving you between 30 mins-2 hours depending on how many settings you prefer to be a certain way.

If that doesn't fix your problem, then you can nuke the whole thing with the CSC file.

Factory reset through the phone relies on having the correct files to restore from, and with the way Android updates, it's becoming more common for the filesystem to get mildly corrupt in one way or another where factory reset through the device doesn't fix the issue thanks to block based updates. I don't think the block based system is cleaning up after itself properly and is leaving behind old code that conflicts with new code personally, but that's just a guess.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] metaleloi666:
Thanks. Where can I find the exact file I need for my phone to flash with Odin? I'm from Canada, on the Videotron carrier and the phone is the N960W.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Frick_trump:
Search xda for samfirm download tool, install it and the needed windows components on your computer.

Then go to sammobile.com and look up your phone, sm-n960w and find your specific carrier code, it'll be 3 letters. Then use that code for the "region" box in the samfirm tool, and sm-n960w for model. It will download the latest firmware from samobile at the fastest speed your internet will allow.

Alternatively you can download it straight from samobile, but the download speed is DSL like unless you pay for an account.

The flash through odin, make sure you load the HOME_csc file and not the stands CSC file in order to reta9your settings and data.

flash CSC (along with all other fields) if your problem isn't fixed.

i got 960ou1 and i get 7 hours or more with the 10 update
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] metaleloi666:
Thanks. I'll hold for a while, as the battery gets better as it seems... But I keep this in my bookmarks.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] metaleloi666:
Well, I just flashed with the HOME_CSC file. Hope it'll fix the problems with the battery...

Hey guys, anyone else using gestures and samsung pay? It appears that there used to be an option to only allow swipe up at the lock screen but I cant find it.

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] peteri8706:
You've got to go into the pay app itself (open it up), go through the initial stages of the app's setup and then once you're on the main screen of the app - go into settings and you can turn that part off which interferes with the gestures at the bottom of the screen.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] deathshead:
Thank you very much Sir!

Very odd that they make you reset the app to get to those settings.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] jonboi:
Thanks for that! Hadn't realised it was active from the lock screen until now! Disabled it :D
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] Paul_Deemer:
Or you can just uninstall Samsung Pay which is the easiest way if you don't use it. I never use my phone that way so I don't need it.

[Shadow General] audscott:
Sir Charles!!

I applied these yesterday and I believ you have something....but I wonder if it's catchy. LOL

I left my connections on all night (BT/wifi), talked for 90 minutes to my friends and family, listened to music on pocket player for an hour and a half and now, 24 hours later I still have 50% battery.

I usually don't activate my connections until I use them and typically don't call too many people on this phone (I have a sucky corporate phone), but it seems all this added activity has not had anywhere near the impact I normally would expect.

I'll spread the word and see if more folks won't give this a try on their Shadows.

Meanwhile....Thanks!!

Do you think this will work on my Universal?

Thanks in advance
[Shadow General] dilfatx:
I doubt it.. the universal runs on pocketpc and this cab was designed for smartphone windows os.
[Shadow General] orb3000:

[Shadow General] JasonInTheOC:
I downloaded the .cab and attempted to install. The install was unsuccessful- anyone know why that might be? Could my registry be locked? I am using WM6.1_V1b_by_Erofich.
[Shadow General] Dr.Tenma:
So, no feedback yet ?
[Shadow General] tonyc0642:
What kind of feedback are you looking for? I use it, I recommend it. This should be the first thing you install on your shadow.
[Shadow General] Dr.Tenma:
Hmm ok, so does it work for diamond ?
[Shadow General] tonyc0642:
Um, no... that's why it's posted in the Shadow/Juno forum and not the Diamond forum.
[Shadow General] veive:
Actually, all of the registry keys are present in both the touchscreen and non-touchscreen editions of WM 6.1.

So the CAB installer may not work, but the actual registry fix should.

I am trying this on my Wizard and will edit later to post how it works out.

#edit to add#

Works great on both my Wizard and my Juno.

I think that these should work for any WM 6.x build.
[Shadow General] Dr.Tenma:
Ok thank's, i will try these settings !

@tonyc0642 : You're really smart ! Didn't realize that i'm on Juno (Wm6.x) Forum...Really SMART !
[Shadow General] veive:
I'm bored, soo...

I'm feeling bored, so i'll go in to what these keys do.

Basically all of these are power management keys, which allows the phone to turn devices/connections off when not in use.

If you want, you can take my word for it, otherwise you can use the links.

AsyncMac is The NDISWAN implementation in Windows Embedded CE

IrSIR = Infrared Serial Driver

PPTP and L2TP are VPN protocols.

Just wondering, how much did this effect the battery life on your Shadow.

Question is for everyone to answer, just curious. My shadow goes down to about 50% within 6-8 hours of texting.
[Shadow General] rumel1988:
the .cab dosn't change the value of 2# registry. I need to manualy revalue it. if u can do, please fix the .cab for desh. :)
[Shadow General] whicky1978:
I would like to know too what each registry key does. I did the hacks and got more than twice the battery life, but think it may be affect my bluetooth voice command and also making my phone freeze up.
[Shadow General] CarnalT:
So I originally attempted to install the .CAB but received an "installation unsuccessful" notice. After investigating, I found that there is no IRSIR 1 folder on my phone's registry. I think this folder pertains to a comm port driver or something like that, but I was wondering if anyone had any ideas why it was missing. Also, I am currently suffering from the "broken wifi" problem that many others are experiencing. Could my phone's lack of "IRSIR 1" be related to the broken wifi?
[Shadow General] whicky1978:
Causes Blue Tooth problems/IRSIR1 for infrared

I switched two of the keys back to fix my bluetooth issues.

3. HKLM\Comm\PPTP1\Parms\DisablePowerManagement

Change Dword value from 1 (default) to 0

4. HKLM\Comm\L2TP1\Parms\DisablePowerManagement

Change Dword value from 1 (default) to 0

That key is for infrared. Your phone probably does not have infrared.

I can't use my wifi with Bluetooth on, which means no gamepad for games or headset for music and its driving me crazy lol

I can get 50mb/s speed with BT off and it goes down to 0mb/s with BT on

I had problems with ring so I bought replacement parts ( Sealing + Ball Bearings + Spring set), cleaned everything but ring is still not working – it looks good, works smooth and I hear click sound when turning around but in OS there is no feedback except one position. It is round so it is hard to say exact position but I have a scratch on a ring so when this scratch is on 10 and I move one position clockwise or counterclockwise I can see move but all other ring position is not having any feedback in OS. I don’t know how exactly this ring works and how can I fix this? I have photos and movie but I cant post it becuse I'm new member.

Don't install from the folder, use the #mono_ apk that will recognise the folder and install the desired font. Yes you can uninstall the one you have then use the, let's call it, app font manager.

The app in the playstore called 'zFont' also has a bunch of monofonts you can install for oneUI on Android 10.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] BredzProh:
I made a tutorial regarding this. Hope it helps!

1. Make sure you are signed into your Samsung Account.

2. Install zFont 3 from the Play Store.

3. Go to Dashboard and open Monotype fonts.

4. Find CirceRounded font (2066th font).

5. Tap it twice to download and then install it.

6. Change the device's font to the new one.

7. At your phone's Settings, go to "Accounts and backup" and then to "Back up data" under Samsung Cloud.

8. Select only "Settings" and back it up.

9. Change the device's font to the default one.

10. Back to zFont 3, go to Local and tap on the "Aa" button.

11. Select the font you have downloaded that you like.

12. Tap on "APPLY" twice to uninstall CirceRounded and install your own font.

13. Do not change the font in your phone's Settings!

14. At your phone's Settings, go to "Accounts and backup" and then to "Restore data" under Samsung Cloud.

15. Select only "Settings" and restore it. Don't delete the backup.

16. Android will be tricked into thinking that it's applying again CirceRounded but it will actually apply your custom font!

17. You may repeat this process from step 9, for every other font, now.

NOTE: If your font isn't a ".ttf" file, you may convert it online or use zFont Tool to convert ".otf" to ".ttf"!
[Shift General] cmonex:
so here we proudly present the HardSPL flash package :)

well, what this is good for - this enables flashing of custom roms (I try to explain only because I know many Shift owners here don't own other HTC devices).

SSPL and RUU patches have been made mostly by me, HSPL and package compilation have been made mostly by Olipro, so both are branded OliNex.

Please read and follow all instructions very carefully.

this has been tested (thanks thaihugo, et al.), but if you have problems then do let us know in this thread.

also, TO EVERYONE WHO BETA TESTED in the past: please do download this final version. it will flash an updated HardSPL to your device.

prerequisite: "liberated" Shift (i.e. has the usbtool on Snapvue side!).

[size=+1]STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS:[/size]

1. Download the package from attachment in this post and extract the files from the zip somewhere on Vista.

2. Install the EnableRapi.cab file from the zip on Snapvue side. (of course do unzip in Vista first.)

3. Make sure Shift is on AC adapter and that the WMDC in Vista sees the Snapvue side!!! (use usbtool to turn USB on in Snapvue if necessary.)

4. Run the ShiftHardSPLFinal.exe on Vista. if you do not have UAC disabled, then please run it as Administrator!!!

5. It should pop up two cmd windows for a second. then it will pop up a box saying "Processing". at this point please check if Snapvue side went into black screen. if yes, then everything is OK so far, so press OK in the "Processing" messagebox.

6. After some more wait (and two more cmd windows - please allow them to run if Vista asks!), the Romupdateutility will launch automatically. Please press Next and so on, until it flashes the update.

7. The RUU should say success, and should hard reset the device. at this point your Shift has been HardSPL'ed - Congratulations!!!

TroubleShooting:

- if Vista errors out on pput.exe after step 4, make sure you launched the ShiftHardSPLFinal.exe as Administrator: right click on EXE and select "run as Administrator" option.

- if at step 5, you don't have black screen, the device might be asking you to allow to run a program on the Snapvue side. click Yes if prompted!

- if after step 5 the next cmd gets stuck at some USB disabling message, let us know. (it shouldn't get stuck but just in case.)

- if you wish to check it is really HardSPL'd now, use mtty and use info 2 command in it. it should return HTCS00000000something which means it is (fake) supercid and is HardSPL.

NOTE: never use the RUU from this SSPL package for anything else! this is special and is strictly for the HardSPL process.

to just flash ROMs after you installed HardSPL, you can use the original RUU or CustomRUU from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=2098895#post2098895

also, first Custom ROM with GPS and with some tweaks/customizations (will also be liberated out of the box!) is to follow sometime this week. along with a radio Security/CID unlocker (patched radio image). then voice and maybe WVGA screen is to follow not much later.

you of course must have this HardSPL installed, or the ROMs will not flash!

enjoy :)

then won't continue.

Any help, please?

[Shift General] andy1205:
after done this thing, is it possible to make voice call from Shift? sorry about that question, as I dont have much knowleague about rom and flash
[Shift General] motoi_bogdan:
noup. this will allow you to place the hacked rom (the hacked rom is still to be released) that would enable these features... and this without having the phone detect the "hack".

this is a way of telling it..
[Shift General] cmonex:
oh, chinese shift... is the OS in all chinese? :) and the WM side?

anyway, that should not be a problem... if it still won't go on, press Ctrl+C to cancel this cmd, another will pop up, cancel that too, then the RUU will pop up. at this point, put vista to hibernate (don't try to shut down for now, it will make it harder to get it working that way). wait a few secs after it hibernated, wake up vista, then go on with the RUU.

btw if this is first time being in bootloader, it might first want to install drivers at this point. let it install them, then feel free to continue in the RUU.

another way to deal with the issue: shut down vista and remove battery. reinstall battery, boot both vista and snapvue, then start the process from step 1 again. battery removal and fresh boot of vista afterwards can help a lot with usb.
[Shift General] cmonex:
hey ;)

IIRC you have the beta hardSPL flashed, yes? I recommend updating it with this final one (only difference is this has overwrite protection while the beta did not - because of that, you can also update the beta one by using CustomRUU and the RUU_Signed.NBH from the final package after it extracts.)

as for voice, chances are a bit better I think.
