Is the beta STILL going on for the Chinese version?

What about news related to the global version?
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] bryanpen:
The RM5S firmware works perfect on RM5G. The only problem is it won't let you use a different launcher. But I also haven't tried root on it yet either. I will post a link if people want to try it out.

[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] Tjnr:
Do you install the firmware? This is the Chinese room? I have a RMG5G with the global rom what's the difference between??
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] bryanpen:
This has the working theme store. There are more functionalities to this rom but haven't tried them out yet. This is the Chinese rom.
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] Tjnr:
I've try to install and the installation not initiate and the phone reeboot
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] bryanpen:
I did mine from a fresh install of 3.13 ENcommon if that makes a difference. I set up the Google apps and then I updated to the 5S rom through local upgrade. It may not work if you have the Global rom.
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] Patrick Morgan:
it will work. but the CN version of the roms for the 5S and 5G have TONNES! of bloatware. all asking for express permissions for storage and internet.

if you don't mind giving nubia literally all your data, go ahead. but the newest update for the 5S NA/EU will be out soon, v8.07 and it should install and boot on the 5G
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] Tjnr:
Don't work in mine by local update.
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] bryanpen:
Yeah I noticed that. I just deleted all of the bloat apps one by one

Can't you change launcher ?
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] TopoX84:
I have the Red Magic 5s and yes you can select a default launcher, i have Nova as the default launcher

the steps that you need to do is

open settings -> app info -> top right corner click on the 3 dots -> Default app settings -> Desktop and select your preferred launcher

i cant take credit of this as someone over the 5S forum section provided the steps
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] Yogart99:

[Xiaomi Mi 10 Ultra Guides, News, & Discussion] RonyP:
Tested with Xiaomi Mi 10 Ultra (cas) running latest MIUI 12.0.8 China Rom​

I used Xiaomi ADB/Fastboot Tools (available from the developer here), but this can be preformed via adb also.

Turn on USB Debugging

- In cmd type adb devices, and allow adb authorization on device

- If using Xiaomi ADB/Fastboot Tools do not use the uninstall mode, it has caused a bootloop for me, Im not sure what package yet.

- WARNING If rooted and using the adb method do not use the ADB shell in SU mode, since MIUI 11 any app removed via root will cause a bootloop.

- Reboot & Enjoy

So far i have managed to disable all packages below without issue, this list isn't extensive yet I am still testing and will edit the post in time.

[Xiaomi Mi 10 Ultra Guides, News, & Discussion] AerationCheese:
A lot of those you can uninstall in the system without ADB
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Ultra Guides, News, & Discussion] mahst68:
Great Work on this.... besides it still resetting the assistant on the phone back to none now that Mi AI is gone... this makes the phone almost perfect without changing the rom to EU Rom... I don't typically keep my phones for a long time so I don't think I'll flash the rom this time.... great work and great alternative!
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Ultra Guides, News, & Discussion] Biggenz:
Can you disable the Mi GetApps app? I wasn't in the list for me and it periodically causes battery drain for me. I guess you won't be able to as it's the build in app store.

I'm just thinking, if you do a backup of the phone and delete all the apps you don't want and then restore it again, would it cause any problems I wonder.
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Ultra Guides, News, & Discussion] caiclo:
Thanks for the list. I have tried it without problems. Analytics is showing disabled. However, the browser is still keep coming back after a restart. I only checked these two and not sure about the rest of the application.

Can you confirm if it is safe to remove Ai Call Assistant?

[MENTION=11217483]CynicalSkeptic[/MENTION] pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.miui.face broke my face unlock, which I use frequently. Any ideas how could I reinstall it?

There's an apk called MIUIBiometrics which should be the same as com.miui.face. Tried to install it via ADB, to no avail:

Also tried normally, which couldn't complete.

Any tips would be appreciated.

Thanks!
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Ultra Guides, News, & Discussion] Kelvin Nguyen:
Thank you for the tips, can you pls advice how can I disable or uninstall default "getapps" all on mi 10 ultra / miui 12? I tried a lot of ways (adb, cmd..) but no result.

so this is $1000 phone and you have to debloat?!

unbeliveable
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Ultra Guides, News, & Discussion] prashanth_:
@CynicalSkeptic Did you really remove com.miui.face or was this list a copy/paste from somewhere?

@Legen_M18k Yes, you can update even after de-bloating.
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Ultra Guides, News, & Discussion] picitup:
I ran the list above and it works without any apparent issues so thanks for that :)

I also got rid of the Sogou keyboard in Chinese MIUI 12.5.4 Stable as I like to use the MessageEase one from Play. Every time I rebooted, the Sogou keyboard took over. Now it's gone,my favourite keyboard works fine:

adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.sohu.inputmethod.sogou.xiaomi

[Xiaomi Mi 10 Ultra Guides, News, & Discussion] Zaladormu:
Turning off WMService may cause bootloop because this service is connected to Google Play Service :)

Freeform is the service of resizing floating windows
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Ultra Guides, News, & Discussion] kenjiefujima25:
Are you really sure about this? Can you provide me some proofs regarding to this matter :)
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Ultra Guides, News, & Discussion] kenjiefujima25:
So far, so good. I've clean my phone with tons of bloatware and currently cleaning my relatives phones with this advice.

Note: You can also use another software called Universal Android Debloater (click the link for more info) to safely remove some bloatware that is unwanted or seems that is not useful for you.

there's a lot of features there and you can see the suggestion that is safe to remove (based from the experience of previous dev's and tester) apps. explore this for more info.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] joebongo:
Having read all the arguments about Exynos vs Snapdragon I'm now thoroughly confused.

It also seems the U and O Snapdragon variants only cover some of the bands used by my telco (Three in the UK).

So, I can return this unopened box if there is a SD variant that works in the UK properly, or, if it's all a load of nonsense, I can open it and begin my Note 20 journey.

What do we say XDA?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] GDHAMTON7:
Honestly I've seen the videos and I've seen the comparisons and it comes down to if you really want to go with the agreement that SD is better or take the semi Fair fair trade offs...

Dual sim and esim are not available on the US versions without tweaking the device.

Base storage is 256 vs the 128 we get.

However I noticed some of the exynos versions don't have all the 5g bands

---------- Post added at 12:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:53 AM ----------

Keep in mind this is just my opinion. DEX and a few other options worked just fine with my note 10 that I had and it was exynos.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] joebongo:
Thanks, I've no need for dual sim or esim. Just looking at performance if it will work on Three in the UK. And realistically what difference would it make to me? Any at all I'd wonder.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] jtOttawa:
Dual SIM is awesome for travel - personally, I don't want to go back to single SIM.

From what I've seen of the comparisons between the Exynos and Snapdragon, the real world differences are not that great (with the possible exception of battery life). There is even some suggestion that Exynos can handle 5G in both SIM slots whereas Snapdragon might not - but this is still an outstanding question in my mind at least.

That said, I elected to get the Hong Kong SM-N9860 (Snapdragon), as 5G isn't as important to me as performance, battery life, and dual-SIM capability. Plus, HK has Samsung Pay, so that works on the phone as well - if your phone is from a country that doesn't have Samsung Pay, it won't work.

Hope this helps.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] ekerbuddyeker:
Use it as a paperweight or to prop up your computer screen. That way the battery life will be better.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] kradcliffe:
Battery life is terrible and it keeps dropping calls. I've had my one since release but have phoned for a collection and refund today. I've tried everything but it never gets 5 hours SOT. It's OK in standby but as soon as you start using it the battery percentage drops instantly. Signal is also poor on Vodafone UK but no problem with my other handsets.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] joebongo:
Well so far not much love at all for the Exynos. I thought I'd have enough "yeah it's fine, crack on" type replies.

I'm surprised really, my guess would have been that it was basically ok!

I'm going to leave the box unopened and see what people say over the rest of the day and tomorrow!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] ekerbuddyeker:
I have the SD dual sim n9860.

Even the snapdragon has unsatisfactory battery life, IMHO.

I don't think Samsung test their devices for long enough before release.

This should have had the 7000 mah battery they are now starting to use, even if the device got thinker and heavier.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] jtOttawa:
From what I have seen online, part of the issue is the requirement for a separate modem from the SoC, as Snapdragon is pushing (or being pushed to offer) a 5G solution that isn't quite ready for prime time. Adds a lot of cost too, mostly for the benefit of marketing.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Brava27:
I have the 986b it's fast
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] joebongo:
Well so far I'm on the verge of returning the phone. I can't find a single post on the internet saying yes it's ok compared to SD, mainly for heat, battery and apparently camera differences, noticeable with low light shots.

I don't think I've ever had a phone unopened on my desk this long ever!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] DoobyDroid:
Seen some comparison YouTube videos and tbh there isn't that much difference 5 or 6% on some tests and even the exynos came out better on one bench mark can't remember witch now but to the average user won't be noticeable battery life slightly better but again minimal I watched a run down vs sd and exynos exynos died and sd had 7% left so not much better anyway people moaning about battery its different for everyone depends on user and what doing and how set up I get quiet good battery with few tweekts hear and there and its simple just plug in to charger for 30 min and hay presto loads of battery plus we get 256GB and akg headphones so not all bad I've decided to keep mine now and its early days things will improve with updates as well was going to get galaxy z flip 5G but 3300mah and mediocre camera and hefty monthly cost £88 will stick with note 20 ultra its a beast and that bronze is ? i got a good deal out of voda 48GB data with entertainment no upfront £58 month should of been £78 and £49 upfront for just 24GB thats what it is now, but I was on a double data promo when I exchanged handset so she left me on the previous plan with 48GB Bonus [emoji106]
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] kradcliffe:
The performance is OK, no issues there. It's just the battery life that is horrendous. Having gone back to the Note 8 over the past couple of days it's actually better, but only has a 3300 battery. Something definitely not right with this phone. Could just be a bad battery but I can't be arsed going through an exchange and setting up all over again for the same thing to happen.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] jtOttawa:
I think you might be referring to this comparison: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nHxRH8aYnUU

And I agree, it would appear that the differences aren't as great IRL as the benchmarks might suggest - I went for the HK SM-N9650 anyway, as it would seem to have the best of both worlds - Snapdragon (although jury appears to be still out on usability of 5G) dual-SIM, and 256GB storage.

---------- Post added at 03:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:41 PM ----------

Are you using 5G? I have also read that the separate modem will drain more battery as well as opposed to an integrated SOC solution: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/201...65-is-a-step-backwards-for-smartphone-design/
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] kradcliffe:
No, switched 5g off as we don't have it here, but no difference to battery life with it on or off.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] jtOttawa:
That's what the article suggests as well, I believe - that there will be additional battery drain due to the separate modem regardless.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] joebongo:
How horrendous is horrendous? Am on a SD Note 10 plus here, a US version I think which some days of moderate use can get quite low, others I can go to bed with 40pc plus left.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] DoobyDroid:
Well considering the s20 ultra had a 5000mah you would of thought the note 20 ultra would be getting into the 5500+ at least tbh , i had the s20 ultra as well and not alot in it still had to charge around T time for 20 mins just to last the evening on both devices and I've found that on most of the flagships with 90/120hz and WQHD its just a battery hog feature pretty much goes for S20+ S20 ultra Oneplus 8 & 8 pro , oppo find x2 pro all phones I've had and returned all the same need charge at some point to last the day the only phones I've experienced with decent battery is unfortunately Huawei p30 pro and p40 pro now they have excellent optimization and ram management got to give Huawei that one just a shame with all the ban crap no GMS or I would of hands down kept the p40 pro for sure excellent phone
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] kradcliffe:
Horrendous is just over 4 hours SOT. Boot up at 7am and empty by 4pm. Loses 10 percent battery in 40 minutes.

Pretty standard on most latest samsungs im afraid take mine of charge 5am and at 2pm when finish work im at 54% /64% depending what I've been doing on it at work normally give it quick 20/30 min boost around 5pm and sorted for the evening then again all down to user preference and set up etc , im sure with future updates it can improve and only had mine 4 days so still learning my patterns but seems to be getting better

[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] apd:
I got the N9860 - the HK SD version - and it appears to be just fine on Three UK so far. We don't have 5G where I am but it does cover the Three 5G bands. It also covers all bar one of the 4G bands.

I know there are different views on the SD version vs the Exynos but given that the SD uses a faster chip than was in the S20 and the Exynos variant uses the same chip as the S20, it was a bit of a no-brainer for me.

Bought from Wonda Mobile and was pleasantly surprised at their service .

Edit - I should add that the SD version of the Note is much much smoother than the Exynos version of the S20 Ultra. Its like the Exynos just can't quite keep up with the framerate.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] VirtualWaver:
I am also with Three. All works great except 5G - it doesn't seem to work. Another guy tested with EE and 5G didn't work either.

So 5G is currently an issue with HK version.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] DoobyDroid:
I did a test last night in the battery section there's an option to turn of fast charge and super fast charge and I charged over night with them off and nearly 2hrs since I took of charge im still on 95% that's an improvement from same time yesterday at least
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] apd:
Yes - after writing my post I came across a thread which suggests that Samsung may have changed something to prevent 5G from working for the time being but maybe a CSC change will help. I don't have 5G here and don't need it so am not bothered for the time being
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] ekerbuddyeker:
SD not much better. Every Samsung phone I ever owned fell more than 10% per hour. This SD is the same.

I switch it on and it drops to 99 then 98 in seconds.

This is definitely one place the iPhone wins. No matter what I did, no battery anxiety.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] apd:
But the iPhone is much harder for battery drain issues when they do occur - and they definitely do occur

[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] kradcliffe:
That can't be shut down without rooting.

I did a bit of digging and found a Samsung location service app that was running in the background and using 10 percent of the battery.
