I am seriously irritated with 2 partition bs while im screwing up my phone with different ROMs, TWRP's , ROOT est...

So is there any way to merge partitions so i can have one ?

I read somewhere that flashing MIUI is solution but i really dislike MIUI so i want to have possibility to flash different roms and i dont know if they demand 2 partition
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] matze19999:
no.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] tech_head:
I don't understand the problem.

The easiest way to avoid issues with two partitions is once you upgrade a partition only boot from that one.

I normally flash BOTH partitions with the same OS version.

The issue is because although the ROM has a different partition, the settings for the phone are stored in a common partition.

Switching between rims in different slots will cause issues.
[General Questions and Answers] ca12bon:
Hi all,

So I've done quite a bit of research on this, and wasn't able to find anything on Google. Basically, I already have a pretty decent main phone, but I want to get a "budget" type second phone purely for Astrophotography using GCAM. Now, I've been told Xiaomi phones and Pocophones work well with GCAM, but I wanted to see if there are any other alternatives out there that work better. My current choices are Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 Pro, Xiaomi Redmi 9S, Pocophone F1, and the Razer Blade 2. Can anyone with a lot of experience with GCAM and/or astrophotography on some of these phones chime in and provide some information?

Requesting info. on following topics (as an example)

1) - How well Astrophotography mode works on the specific phone

2) - Is there any noise in the picture?

3) - Are there any color temperature issues?

In terms of picture "quality", I generally don't care about color temperature, but I do absolutely hate noise / grain. I think it's due to the way my Huawei P30 Pro processes night time pics to be smooth / bright / and without noise/grain.

Thanks in advance :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psychoreactor:
I have found myself repeatedly moving the downloads and photos folders to my external SD card, so I decided to try and make a small script or binary that can automate this task without consuming much space. I tried a plethora of "compilers" that run in android, and only Termux with clang could create a file transfer binary, but it can only write to one folder in the external storage, in its app data.

So, I'm asking, is there any way to automate moving folders into the external storage that won't require a large app?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 1890170:
[MENTION=5519694]psychoreactor[/MENTION]

Take note that you can't move directories/files if FS of source location and target location is different: hence you have to use copy instead

A small shell script like this example

#!/system/bin/sh
cp -ar /sdcard/Photos /ext-sdcard/Photos /
rm -rf /sdcard/Photos
mkdir -p /sdcard/Photos
cp -ar /sdcard/Downloads /ext-sdcard/Downloads/
rm -rf /sdcard/Downloads
mkdir -p /sdcard/Downloads

does the job

You run such a script at pre-set time by means of Android's crond service, preferredly when Android boots + 20 seconds

IMHO a far better method ( what doesn't impact internal SD-card's lifespan ) is to format the external SD-card as EXT4 ( this is particularly important, as the file system used on the external SD-card is usually FAT or FAT32 ), create there folders Photos & Downloads, delete original folders, then symlink original folders to these new folders: This way all photos & downloads automatically land on external SD-card.

ln -s /ext-sdcard/Photos /sdcard/Photos
ln -s /ext-sdcard/Downloads /sdcard/Downloads

Hi there,

I have never paid much attention to the deep sleep time of the phone while charging, untill I recently used the ACC Magisk module to make the phone stop charging when battery level reachs 75% and resume when 60%.

I started noticing that my phone keep awake without going into deep sleep while power plugged even without actually charging.

Is this normal? Would you like to use ACC to expand battery lifetime?

I appreciate your attention and comments.

[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] Apex_AU:
Hi guys, I recently purchased a refurbished S9+ without knowing the model and it turned out to be a SM-G965U. After a failed software update ("Your current software isn't supported. Visit a service centre"), I've been trying to find a way to update the phone to 'official' Android 10. Does anyone know if this is possible or is the phone locked to Android 9?

'OEM Unlock' is missing from developer settings which (I think) means it can't be rooted with any common method. But is it possible to flash the phone with an official, working version of Android 10?

I'm willing to use any method required (within reason) to update the phone to a working version of Android 10. I'm aware of the "Extreme Syndicate" root method but the bugs / missing features rule it out for me. I intend to get a refund for the phone if it can't be updated to Android 10 so I'd really appreciate any answers to my questions.

Thanks!

There's only one aspect of my OnePlus 5T that I want to improve. And that's battery life.

What are my best options? I'm looking for

- underclocking the CPU and GPU

- undervolting

- anything else software based?

I'm on stock Android 10 rom, locked bootloader etc. Never flashed anything on this device except official OTA update files.

[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] banana_bender:
You could check your battery health with accubattery or OnePlus diagnostic APK. If it is around or below 80% you could buy a new battery and replace it, it is quite easy. Software based solutions will not have a significant impact. Don't bother with undervolting, but underclocking is an option if you are that desperate and want to unlock the bootloader. If you have never had a factory reset you could give that a go, and start fresh.

SM-N960U

Software: N960USQS4DTD5

Service Provider: SPR/XAA/XAA

Android 10

so the issues is now that it is unlocked i keep getting pop up from sprint saying my profile cant be updated and so forth so i have been trying to flash it to ethier the unlocked firmware or even ATT firmware since cricket uses that towers figured that would be better then sprints but everytime i just fails right from the start or it sits for 2-3 and then fails (image attached) i have installed all drivers and im using the patched version of odin.

Last thing I have a question about from. What I have read the note 9 is the same phone across all carriers just different software to block and allow different bands is this correct. If so would it not be smarter to installed a unlocked or att files since cricket is att
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Android#:
I think by OMADM he's probably referring to an app, most likely a system app, that is responsible for this popup you are getting. I checked my Note 9 and I don't have this app as it is running on T-Mobile. It probably is a Sprint system app that gets installed with Sprint version of Android firmware.

You are correct that all Note 9 are same hardware and if unlocked, based on which carrier sim you insert in the phone, it will automatically switch system software to relevant carrier.

I could be wrong

but I suspect that your Note 9 was remotely unlocked by unofficial methods or else, once you had inserted cricket sim card in it, it would have automatically switched the Android to AT&T version and you would not be getting this pop up. Best way to verify that your Note 9 was unofficially unlocked or not is by either inserting Sprint sim card in it, the phone will not work with Sprint if it is unofficially unlocked or by checking the phone IMEI on Sprint BYOD portal. If you check IMEI and phone shows attached to an account or has balance, it will mean that the previous owner of the phone unofficially unlocked the phone without paying off the phone and sold it to you as an unlocked phone.

I have owned 4-5 Note 9 phones in last couple of years and I use both AT&T and T-Mobile MVNOS and whenever I switched sims, the Android software version automatically changes after reboot to match the sim carrier. I have old Verizon and Sprint sim cards lying around for testing purposes and I have checked those too with same results.

---------- Post added at 04:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:52 PM ----------

One other way you can know for sure is if you have a non-Sprint sim card lying around such as from T-Mobile or Verizon or even AT&T or their respective MVNOS (not Cricket obviously), insert that sim and reboot the phone and see if the carrier software changes away from Sprint and hopefully you will not get this popup anymore.
