I managed to reduce the standby battery drain for Exynos.

Now if you don;t use the phone the battery won;t get consumed.

I am using Package Disabler Pro and some bloatware xml

i will create a thread here step by step how to.

cheers.

This would be useful. My battery is rubbish........
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Guides, News] Kiran-Kumar:
Disable Samsung Push Services, very sure the drain should be contained mostly.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Guides, News] RandomJazz:
I would like to see what you guys disable!

I am kinda hesitant to do so, what does the Push Service actually do?

Edit: After googling about it, it basically gives you notifications about Samsung apps.

I use some Samsung apps so if a new update comes out, I won't be notified about it after disabling Push service?
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Guides, News] Kiran-Kumar:
The duplicate apps are anyway notified by the play store but I also get notified for Galaxy store only apps with Push Services disabled. Not really sure what it actually disables.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Guides, News] RandomJazz:

Looks impressive. What did you do and how is your standby drain?
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Guides, News] RandomJazz:
Disabled/Unistalled all the bloatware and apps I don't need/use.

Medium power saving mode when going to bed.

Deep Sleep apps that don't have to run on the background.

Refresh rate set to 96Hz.

Of course, the usual dark mode, etc.

AOD only for notifications.

If I am missing something, I will post it here

with 120Hz? if so it is ok, if not where is the reason for s20?
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Guides, News] buuber:
No, that is at 60Hz. But honestly I have tried running at 120 and I can't say I noticed the difference enough to keep it there. But when I was running at 120 it was burning about 15 to 20% more. I was still making it through the day though. At the end of the day Samsung has overclocked their chip to keep up with the latest snapdragon. This is causing a lot of problems from overheating to higher battery drain. But if your not doing anything too intensive on your phone then it shouldn't be too different. Bit of fortnite though and this exynos chip shows it flaws.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Guides, News] RandomJazz:
Isn't it a bit too much losing 10% per hour while screen is on?
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Guides, News] *Detection*:
Well that would give you 10 hours SoT which is very good
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Guides, News] RandomJazz:
That's true but feels like it is draining so fast when I use it.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Guides, News] RandomJazz:
Sometimes, when I pull the phone off the charger I get a discharging speed around 15-17%.

That's a bit too much, ain't it?

I was completely desperate with my S20 Exynos 4G, tried everything possible - 96hz, dark mode, disabling stuff from adb, package disabler pro, nothing helped.

Before finalizing the decision to get rid of it, I did a factory reset and put my sim card back to my old p20 pro.

So far it looks like a completely different phone! I am gradually installing new apps and monitoring the consumption closely and it holds less than 0.5%/h on standby and less than 10%/h with screen on.

During initial wizard I installed none of the optional apps. Other than that, everything else from Samsung is the default stuff - light mode, 60hz, edge panels, find mobile, etc.

Accubattery predictions say almost 11h sot and 222h with screen off. I never managed to see such numbers before!

Another positive thing I noticed is that phone is in deep sleep 96% of the screen off time.

Will be adding apps one by one until I find the culprit.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Guides, News] readymarc:
Yes.... this solution works. There is always one app that causes problems.

I have done the same and I now i have great battery life. Besides the occasional heat up when using the camera, which still annoys me
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Guides, News] mariushm:
Which app it was in your case? I wonder what kind of apps manage to hide from the different battery reporting tools we use to monitor battery.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Guides, News] readymarc:
Actually some wallpaper apps... and that got sorted.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Guides, News] diogoreismartins:
I came from an cold snapdragon 835 and this phone is really hot. This exynos its a crap. 70°C? Wtf.

SOT it's like 6 hours disabling Samsung bloatwares, using 96hz refresh rate and battery optimization option Active.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Guides, News] RandomJazz:
Actually, that's not normal. I am using Exynos version and never got so high temps.

Try factory resetting?
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Guides, News] mariushm:

[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Guides, News] mariushm:
I have the phone for two months already. I've had iPhones, I've had other Android brands as well. The battery life of S20 is simply TERRIBLE. It is fine at home on WiFi, but then drops 3-4 pct/hour when I am outside and on the move. When the camera app is active it drops 50%/hour.

Hd+ 720p for me it's a 6.7" screen not a 42", whys anyone need QHD out of interest.

Disable apps you don't need or use

Disable always on screen

Lower brightness (disable auto adjust)

Disable all vibrations (not notifications or ringtone)

I've unlimited data so WiFi can do one

Coming from an s8 these speakers are fine , miss the headphone jack so BT has to be used (annoying)

Essentially my battery is fine , 5-6 hours & i charge the phone at a minimum of 20% to a maximum of 85%.

Think its common knowledge that displays eat most of the power.

Only gripe so far is the 4k mAh battery , Pathetic size for the price!

Samsung is a brand tax name & the company are disgusting

Yeah you can ...

Even if you root your phone still you can get ota and applied on it easily
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] suckoos:
I've been wondering the same thing, do you have to do anything differently or just receive the Ota like normal? I've read in some cases people having to flash a modified zip to receive the update but I'm not sure if that was this device or not.
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] tiness:
You need to flash stock boot img. If you're on a custom kernel.
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] sic0048:
In theory you should be able to take an OTA update on an unlocked and rooted phone. However in real life it doesn't seem to work out that way very often. In the 8 months I've owned my Pixel 3a XL, I've been successful at taking an OTA update about three times.

You need to familiarize yourself with the "sideload" process of installing an OTA update for the times the normal process does not work. I've created a "How to" thread that talks about rooting as well as taking OTA updates and sideloading updates. It should have all the information you need. https://xdaforums.com/pixel-3a/how-to/how-to-root-pixel-3a-preferred-t3938783
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] Never_Is_Here:
I really don't like the look of my phone, don't like the extreme rounded corners of my phone, I can circumvent by using hide camera cutout and it add a black bar at the top getting rid of the prominence of roundness from the top atleast, but now I have rounded corners at the bottom but not at the top of my phone which just looks awkward, so wondering if there is a way to just stop rendering anything at the bottom of the phone like a black bar, where touch is disabled and its just black?

Hello there!

When I try to install ROM it says "Skipping Digest File" or something like that and after a few seconds TWRP restarts. Someone wrote that can be because the ROM is on the SD card. But I can't copy it to the phone memory, because it doesn't show in windows, so I putted it on sd card.

video recording, not photo

as far as i know it is somehow software limited to 320x240
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] pokevitek:
OK, and at least is there any way to switch off thing which is slowering the camera? I think it is automatic white balance. My brother´s Asus P535 has the sport option, which disable autobalance and the camera is smoothly, no slowdown, but I am not sure if this is autobalace wchich cause slowdown, anyway I am sure you know what I am talking about.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Aqrab:
you mean recording video not smooth in a little dark area or in a night ?

if that so same problem in my old touch dual dont know how to fix this
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] pokevitek:
I dont think this is a problem, just there is missing the mod withount white balance, like P535 has. P535 has the same problem, but like I said, there is a sport mod, which is really fast.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Aqrab:
i posts a lot about this ! but :(

i really dont like the recording in a dark :mad: craaaap

its like recording 5 frames per second or even lower

most if people record video in the night in a party or somthing , but what the point of video recorder if you cant record smoothly !!?!!

the p3600 record perfectly in a dark CIF size , mp4 , 12 to 13 frames per second
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] pokevitek:
Like I said, it isnt bug literally. There just missing mod which disables image-enhancer software which is slowering device.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Aqrab:
found this in Diamond Tweaks thread

To Enable 'Sport mode': HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\Camera\P8 -> change the value "enabled" from 0 to 1

what about the audio quality?

teh recorded sound is 8 khz and sounds poor.

i found some registry keys about the sample rate, but

has anyone changed the values with success?

i want chrystal clrear tone, like some voice memo apps.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Aqrab:
found this

Go into registry

HKLM/Software/HTC/Camera/Captparam/

and set

CapKeyDelayTime = 15 (old=1500)

CaptureTimer = 50 (old=5000)

it make the camera take picture in no time so you dont need to worry about moving your hand in dark area

I no longer use Multiling O, but use Floris Board on my phone. It, imo, is a superior keyboard.

GitHub - florisboard/florisboard: An open-source keyboard for Android which respects your privacy. Currently in early-beta.

An open-source keyboard for Android which respects your privacy. Currently in early-beta. - florisboard/florisboard

github.com

As with my other post about the Jbak2 keyboard for tablets (here https://xdaforums.com/android/apps-games/guide-jbak2-keyboard-t4016959), I present instructions for installing and configuring the Multiling O keyboard for use on phones. I prefer using Multiling O on my phone because its default configuration is almost perfect for phones (easily adjustable keyboard size, just the right amount of keys), and requires just a few changes to make it perfect for a phone.

You can install from https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=kl.ime.oh&hl=en

Like the Jbak2 keyboard, this has only four permissions (although different ones):

android.permission.VIBRATE

android.permission.READ_USER_DICTIONARY

android.permission.WRITE_USER_DICTIONARY

android.permission.INTERNET (used to download

Themes/Addons, but not required to function properly)

Link to my shared pCloud http://pc.cd/VJ47 New http://u.pc.cd/v9s7

To try out my configuration (see screenshot) MultiLingO-Screenshot.png

Download it (it's just a plain-text file) MultiLingO-keyboard_Settings.txt

Open it and Copy entire contents to your clipboard

Go to Settings⇛Misc.⇛Import|Export⇛Settings, then tap 'Paste' to replace what's already there with what you just copied to the clipboard.

TIP: To see full functionality, including emojis, PressHold the BlackGearIcon, and slide to the desired function.

TIP: After PressHold the BlackGearIcon⇛Emoji, you will see emoji *categories*. Press one to see full list of emojis.

TIP: Press the red lock icon to return to main keyboard layout.

hey there, do you happen to know how to make the Ctrl key lock/toggle on and off like the Shift key? Or of any still active community i can ask in?
[Android Apps and Games] biopsin:
@r0dster dont think its possible.
[Android Apps and Games] r0dster:
damn really? it seems like such an essential functionality for basic key shortcuts like ctrl + arrow/backspace/delete to navigate/select, delete/f-delete words easily, and so many other shortcuts. instead of having to create different buttons/gestures for each direction and for each key…😕
[Android Apps and Games] biopsin:
You are still able to design the kb the way you like with your desired "shortcuts" I say shortcuts but you should look over http://honsoapps.appspot.com/1/k.html and redesign default or own layout.
[Android Apps and Games] r0dster:
but i can’t do that without a toggle-able button, can i?

let me clarify, lets say the layout i’m using only has Shift, Backspace, Delete and Arrow keys. i’d then only need 1 toggle-able Ctrl key for ctrl + arrows (like shift + arrows for selecting).

but if i want to do that without a toggle button (since i can’t hold it down), i’d need to make 2 dedicated buttons for word-forward and word-back. same happens with ctrl + backspace (now needs 1 more dedicated button) and ctrl + delete (yet 1 more dedicated button). plus for ctrl + up or down (yet 2 more dedicated buttons).

so with just these few shortcuts, what would have only needed 1 toggle-able Ctrl button, instead now needs 6 different dedicated buttons (or 6 different gestures, if using [4D:…]). now imagine i want to add shift to the combination for even more shortcuts, that’s another 6 more dedicated buttons on top (now we’re at 12 extra dedicated buttons/gestures instead of 1 toggle-able Ctrl button). or am i missing some trick?

and don’t worry, i know about creating layouts
[Android Apps and Games] biopsin:
I see, yea it would be sound having more sticky functionbuttons. I guess the dev no longer respond either.

Maybe the dude over at Unexpected-Keyboard might have something going, but its not quite the same.
[Android Apps and Games] r0dster:
yea, i’m kinda hoping it’s possible in some less known way/some workaround. because implementing shift to be toggle-able but no way for ctrl and alt just seems like an odd development decision, as all three keys are used as “hold-down combo keys” on pc. and yea the dev has long left this project, just hoping that he already implemented it in some sort of way

thanks, i’ll check out unexpected-keyboard but i’m sure there’s no chance that overall it can do what multiling can unfortunately. every time i develop my layouts a bit further i discover something new, it has insane versatility throughout
[Android Apps and Games] TiTiB:
Have you tried jBak2 keyboard (my xda thread in OP) has info?

I no longer use MultiLingo, but use jBak2 on my tablet, and Florisboard on my phone.

jBak2 is in active development and has *many* improvements from the version available on Play Store. Although I've liked the newer versions' features I don't use them any longer because they have

Hi,

with Multiling O keyboard, to write an accented letter (é, à. ò, ù, etc) I used to write the letter first and then,

in the rightmost place of the second row of letters, appeared the letter with the accent so I had just to tap there

to get what I was looking for. Now this behaviour has disappeared (don't updated the app and don't know what happened):

I can I get it back?
