Depending what you intend to do with the touchpad each person has their own opinion about what works for them. I found the following combination works best for my 16gb tablet. I use it for youtube, hulu, and surfing the web. I also have this on my 32gb one but it's got some games for the kids. The battery drain thing is a problem but not a major issue for me. Only thing that annoys me is if the battery is too drained to get it to boot up. I have to hold the power and the home key (I think) to get it to boot up otherwise plugging it in does do a thing.

[MENTION=8235805]dizzymon[/MENTION] Your are an example of how a discarded old device found on an ewaste bin was brought back to be useful again, thanks to all the hard work of many developers that dedicated their time to port Android to the HP Touchpad:

From your post dated December 6 of 2019:

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=81116701&postcount=183

""My 32GB runs pretty good but my 16GB one that I found in the ewaste bin at work runs like garbage. I will toss it soon."

The Tablet enhance performance with my Kernel settings provided to all the ROM are as follow:

Makes the Tablet run like a Desktop computer or a Laptop: ( not like phone or a mobile device )

A swap partition ( provides the use of more memory )

Remove all the power restrictions to slow the CPU to maximize battery.

Make the CPU works at it's highest frequency only when need it and be stable.

Allocate the full 1 GB of RAM ( HPT_MaXtreme Kernel only )

This is the universal rule that applies to anything.

( More power or energy = faster speed )

( Less power or energy = slower speed )

Regarding the battery drain:

The Tablet is extremely optimize for streaming media:

The original ROM stocks provide no more than 2 MB of buffer, with my Kernel settings is 6 MB of buffer and can be setup even higher!

With my kernel settings the Tablet can stream HD 1080 24/7 with no issues.

That extra Power means more electricity, there is no way around it and the reason that I always say keep the Tablet charging at all time, even while streaming if allows.

To really know the health condition ( capacity ) of the battery do the following:

open a command prompt or terminal on a PC with the novacom driver an enter:

novacom -t open tty://

then

battery status

Example:

ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ novacom -t open tty://

battery status

battery present

voltage: 4113840

percentage: 100

current: -861562

capacity: 6483200

Hi Guys I'm new here so please be gentle with me :confused:

I have had my htc for 2 days now and love it, I've tried a few tweaks and alls well except the ringing volume I just find it very poor :(

Is there a tweak to increase the volume ?

I've tried a couple of different ring tones, adding mp3's but all to no avail, I called at the shop where I bought it from and compared it to another htc just to make sure it wasn't just my phone and there's was the same. Is it just me ? :eek:

Help / advice please

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] doragonroudo:
I tried formating my sdcard as an internal storage using the ActivityLauncher app to get the format as internal storage option from this thread https://c.mi.com/thread-1637511-1-1.html

I am using non-rooted Redmi Note 7, 32/3 GB with 32GB SD Card, on MIUI 10. Details below.

It seemed to be working because in File Manager, the memory size was increased.

But in Setting > Storage it didn't show the size properly. When I tried install applications or download some files it was filling up the storage and I still got Insufficient Storage Available error/warning, even though I thought I did have enough space available.

By googling, I learn that some of people also have this problem. (from the comment on this thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/Xiaomi/comments/cgpowr/use_your_microsd_card_as_internal_storage_no_root/)

So, these are my question.

- Any way to fix system storage display or bypass the storage checking when try to install applications?

- Any other way to format SD Card as internal storage that working with this model (non-rooted method)?

- Will updating to latest MIUI 11 fix this?

- Am I doing this wrong or something?

I also tried this with adb shell command, aiming to bypass the notification warning.

Thank you.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] user0u:
If I remember correctly, the sd card would not show up separately (as is the case in your second image) if it is succcessfully formatted as internal storage. As for the third image, there it always shows storage combined (internal+sd) even when the sd card is being used as protable storage.

So I would guess your sd card has not been formatted as internal storage.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] doragonroudo:
I guess so, then is there any method other than the ActivityLauncher trick that works on this model? I still can't find a wayto do this properly
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] VitasLoWang:
what about this?
[General Topics] Ignoranus:
Hello,

I am here today to share my idea for a mobile operating system, perhaps a derivative of android or its entirely own thing.

The operating system would have a very simple interface. A background (of the users choosing), and in the foreground would be the users apps. The apps would be circular and settings would be simple to understand and wouldn't take up a zillion pages.

It could go 2 ways as well, 1 way being what I already stated and the other following more of a feature phone where you can't put apps on it, you only have the basics but with a touch screen device.

This operating system would be designed for absolute simplicity in every way as it is primarily targeted at old devices with limited power (or just not as much power as today's devices), it could also be placed onto new devices if there became a demand for it but it is primarily targeted for old devices.

I'd attempt to develop this myself but admittedly I have very little knowledge when it comes to code.
[General Topics] Erwan29:
Just put a theme, and organize your apps:confused:
[General Topics] vash_h:
Sometimes I just wish smart phones can be like pc.. Install the os, load in drivers.. And it'll just work.

Unfortunately it doesn't. In order for the os, in this case Android to work, it needs to be able to access the hardware via drivers. It is not able to load all the required drivers used by so many phone manufacturers each having its own design. From processor to sensors, to have a generic one. But if u include all into the firmware, it will just be very slow.
[General Topics] Ignoranus:
I see. Well, I thought I'd put the idea out there.

Putting a theme up and organizing apps doesn't speed up a device that's old. Haha.
[General Topics] vash_h:
Like living things, electronics have an age too. As you use it, it ages, sort of like wear and tear.

Things like heat and heavy usage makes it age faster.

The closer you are to its lifetime, the slower it gets.

Having a lighter rom will help but not by much, and will only get worse.

Best remedy, is a new phone.
[General Topics] Ignoranus:
Yeah, fair enough. I guess I have a hard time letting go. (unamused)
[General Topics] cash_h:
Did you try LneageOS? It's fast. I think you want to support an old phone but with new features, which require fast processors and lots of services in the background. If you only want to call there are burners for that.
[General Topics] Ignoranus:
I have Havoc-OS on my Note 3. It's nice albeit sluggish. I'd rather not have to buy a new phone but might have to.
[General Topics] vash_h:
Usually in older phones such as note 3, when it gets sluggish a factory reset tends to fix it for a few months before getting sluggish.

If it's sluggish even after a factory reset, I'm sorry it's the hardware that aged and there is nothing you can do about it.

Is like getting an old athlete to run. Even a flagship phone or Olympics gold medal runner can't run as fast anymore.

Yeah most times if serial numbers don't match like that it's fake and best way to find out is use cpu z and antutu and look into hardware info cpu has to be the qualcomm snapdragon 855 if it's the chinese version if it's like MPD or MTD something something random then yeah it's fake sometimes it will show you the real memory size it's supposed to be 8GB i can't remember fakes ones have less sometimes 1GB or something.

Why not simply check samsung warranty here:-

https://imei24.com/imei_check/Samsung/

Will tell you serial, both imei numbers etc and warranty status
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] Cayin N6:
The IMEI checker says the Brand is Samsung and Black List is Clean whatever that means..
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] Wingchundub:
If it gives you serials numbers and matching imei's regardless if single or dual sim, is real.

Blacklist means if it shows BLACKLISTED it means the previous owner has reported the phone lost or stolen for an insurance claim, or not paid rest of bill, thererfore the network provider block the imeis from operating, aka no calls, texts or data ONLY wifi can be used.

And other easy way to test is to do a software update or manually via odin, download official software.

Sounds like it's a hacked phone more so than fake to to me. You might be able to flash the latest firmware and everything reset to normal depending on if China messed with the internal circuits or not.

So far I wasn't really enticed to use all the benefits of the Kaiser because of high rates the carrier charges for Data usage in Canada.

Anyhow lately I have seem to need some kind of software that I can access my email all the time. Don't know much about it ... But my question is the following: the carrier offers unlimited email and 4 MB of data. Is there any software that I can block the data but still get the BBconnect/WM push email? Because I have been reading on different forums charges in excess of $1000 for data usage. One customer over $3000. For everybody, Cdn dollars and US are on par.

Hi this is the first time I ask something here and as the thread title says, I want to know if it is possible to overclock in Pie?

The reason I want to do it is simple, my wii broke a few months ago and I have been using this phone with Dolphin to continue playing some of my games. but I have noticed that some of my games slow down, mostly heavy games like Epic Mickey or other games like Mario and Sonic at the Olympics and for some reason also wii party also slows down. I am going to change my phone soon and I wanted to give this one a second life and after a while seeing how this other one can run many games I decided to see what was the problem and I noticed that it is a lack of power of the cpu, so this is why I want to overclock and I have some basic knowledge about it Although I saw it on PCs and laptops, I think at least some things should be the same.

I have the 27 watt charger, the projector mod, and a pretty powerful fan to keep it cool and I wouldn't mind leaving it connected to the charger and near the fan on my desk.

I do not know if this could be useful but my moto z2 is from t-mobile and has android 9 of the model xt1789-06 installed with a guide that is here in xda (I have not published anything here before and I think I can not post links yet but it appears as "Stock Pie on Tmo Moto z2 force hybrid of sprint pie and tmo oreo roms")

Honestly I have almost no development knowledge, I have used things like "flash all" files or zip files for TWRP, but I have never compiled something like a kernel or rom and maybe with some help I could learn how to do it :)

Sorry for the long post and I had to use a translator because I think my english is pretty bad

(TL;DR at end)

Hello,

I have been comparing aftermarket batteries with larger capacitys then the original battery (findings will be shared when finished testing).

I have come across a problem where the phone shows 100% charge on a larger capacity battery, when not actually full (does charge till

actually

full, but shows 100% for large part of it).

Looking for -

help to somehow fix this. Show actual larger battery charge precentege. I'm hoping this is something we can change, as in expected battery capacity, software.

Avidance -

1. Charging while off, indication of fully charged (screen changes from 100% & charging icon to ✓ icon), only after around another 1.25 hours of charging [for the original battery, this takes around 25 minutes].

2. When off and showing charging 100% icon - larger capacity battery at 3.87V. Reaching ✓ icon - battery at 4.2V (measuring with physical externel tools).

Etc.

[Seems larger capacity

is

being used when discharging truly fully charged larger battery (lasted in test up to 1.3 hours more then original).]

3T, OOS 9.0.6, rooted, Xposed

Example from different phone (needed file to mod not on 3T) - https://xdaforums.com/s7-edge/help/mod-aftermarket-misreading-battery-t3510597

I'd really appriciate some help on the matter.

When finished with my research, I'll post my findings (looks promising - found up to 30% increase in battery life!)

TL;DR - Testing larger capacity batteries. Problem of them reaching 100% when there is more charging to do. Phone charges what's left, but shows 100% all the while. Looking for a fix.

Long story short, I'm trying to get a specific app to download to this tablet and am not sure how to go about it. I did the dump data/cache thing in Play Store and Google Play Services and reboot. Didn't work. Did all the steps before I root the device. I even used Root Essentials Editor to mod the device name and manufacturer, that didn't work. And the time zone is set to right time zone.

[General Questions and Answers] kimcosmos:
you can't upgrade generic android devices until version 9. Android 9 seperates the drivers with the treble abstraction layer allowing you keep the drivers and upgrade the rest. The T906 has android 5.11. If you run CM lite scan you will see a huge Opera beta file that is always 3 times your storage. This is how they fake the RAM and ROM sizes. If you take off the back and look at the board you will ussually see printed on the board 1GB ram 16GB rom. They have also faked the CPU by using the ROM for the upspec version with better camera, screen resolution and CPU which uses the same drivers. Thus these are also falsely reported. Sadly Google no longer supports android 5 for things like Google sheets so your apps will soon stop upgrading. I love this machine because the screen size makes it cheap for 50 USD
