there are also some good apps that can make a small animated circle around the camera hole. I've been using one of them since I got this phone and it's actually really nice, fully programmable for different app notifications and WAY more subtle than sammy's built in solution. not a battery drain either

Hi I wanna create hotspot from headunit to use headunit reloaded more efficiently. But when I broadcasting hotspot on unit my phone, laptop and every other phone in my family cannot connects it. When I click headunits SSID(tried both open and WPA2), phone says connecting and it drops to network saved status. I'm not getting any "getting IP" promt or other stuff. I think that is not about DHCP but not sure. Anyway I don't have root rights in unit but I have ADB connection. If someone help me to broadcast hotspot at headunit I'll be glad.

I am using OnePlus One (bacon).

Specifically, I am using LineageOS with MicroG fork (or is it a fork?), but as far as I'm aware it's prettu much compatible.

I noticed that I could not update from within the system for a while, so I did the stupid thing and downloaded and flashed the most recent image without backing up. It boots, works, but there are issues - gallery just crashes, another gallery app just doesn't show any files, I can't access internal storage from my PC via USB. I wanted to export my contacts and whatnot and just wipe everything and start fresh (it seems to work fine like that), but contacts app can't write to the internal storage, it seems.

Feels like certain apps don't have rights to read/write internal storage.

Is ther anything I can do to fix it or at least transfer as much setting/data to a fresh install? At the very least I want to copy over media on my PC via USB.
[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] kingzain900:
Does anyone know how to show the battery level next to the bluetooth icon on the status bar? It worked fine on my old OnePlus 5T phone with the same devices I use to connect on the Xperia 5 II.

Additionally, how do we enable System UI Tuner? When I tap and hold on the settings cog in the notifications panel, nothing happens!
[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] jocker96:
Hi, if it's any like my xperia 5mk1 then I'm afraid you won't be able to se battery level next to the bluetooth icon on the status bar. However you can see battery level of Bluetooth device on the Bluetooth toggle if you just half swipe down notifications shade.
[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] Mr Hughes:
I'm sure you've found this yourself but in the case of the System UI Tuner try these options. I used the Nova Launcher method

Enable System UI Tuner on Android 11 and 10

System UI Tuner is gone from Android 11 and 10? Long-pressing config gear gives no effect? You no longer can control what (and how) is displayed in your status bar in Android device? Well… no…

Hi,

is there any webradio app for the android headunits ? im using malaysk on my HU, there is "PCRADIO" installed. But i dont need any station-database with 1000s of presaved stations, and the app looks for me a little bit overkill... I know tune-in and xiaalive from my smartphone but this is not realy usefull...ads, abos, etc..

My dream is an app like "NavRadio" (https://xdaforums.com/android-auto/...t/dev-navradio-ported-to-mtc-devices-t4048899) or the other one "Custom MTCD Radio App" (https://xdaforums.com/android-auto/mtcd-software-development/app-custom-mtcd-radio-app-t4040505)... but even for webradio....

Anyone knows an app like this ?

[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] litetaker:
I got this phone in January 2018. So, at this point it is almost 3 years old (just over 2 years and 9 months) and the battery life is pretty appalling now. I get perhaps half a day with a full charge. The main issue seems to be turning on WiFi/Data. As long as the WiFi is off which is usually in the night, the battery drain is relatively minimal. But the moment I turn WiFi on in the morning, the battery drains like crazy regardless of what I do with it. I usually just let it sit on my desk doing mostly nothing. I stay at home 24x7 nowadays due to the Covid-19 lockdown, and work from home. So no poor or uneven network signal. In terms of regular usage, it is a few minor phone calls via WiFi mostly, and a bit of solitaire games for an hour or so.

Take a look at the screenshots of the battery drain and life. Is there something I can do to enhance the battery life of this? Make it drain less with WiFi?

If the images do not appear above, click here and here for the two images.

There is also a battery replacement service here in London for a reasonable £60. I am wondering if I should do that or simply buy a new phone as this phone has anyway reached the end of life software support.
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] karlmf:
If it was me, I would be getting a new phone. Almost 3 years old. Time for a change. I've got the 4XL, but you could easily move to the new 4a, or 5 series. Good luck with your decision.
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] litetaker:
Sadly I am just not impressed with the new Pixels. The idea of having a weaker, less power hungry CPU and a bigger battery is nice, but the price is just unreasonably high. I wish it was cheaper especially given the competition. I have been searching for my perfect next phone and I think I should switch to something new soon as well. My top priority now is a decent price and a great battery.
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] karlmf:
The new P5 has a 4080ma LiPo battery. Haven't read much about the difference between LiOn and LiPo batteries. Not easy finding the perfect phone. Best of luck.
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] litetaker:
Here is a nice comparison between Li-ion and Li-Po batteries: https://www.androidauthority.com/lithium-ion-vs-lithium-polymer-whats-the-difference-27608/

Seems like Li-Po has low self discharge so it will hold a charge longer. But also has shorter life span, so I am guessing fewer charge cycles than even the current batteries. Interesting but unfortunate drawbacks. Oh, I wish for the day when we make a true battery breakthrough and have batteries with insane charge density in tiny packages and great life spans! Some day!
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] crewster:
If I were you, I would get a battery replacement. No need to upgrade, especially when the price for the new pixel 5 is exceedingly high and disproportionate. I would then install a custom ROM so that you can get the latest security updates. That's what I'm going to do, I will wait for the next Pixel generation. If it's not any better, I may hold out longer. This is a fantastic phone that works ridiculously well despite the years, and we should avoid falling into needless consumerism. Just my two cents...

Enviado desde mi Pixel 2 mediante Tapatalk
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] litetaker:
I am considering that as well. I am not thrilled by the options I have at the moment. I like that the Pixel 2 is nice and small and it works well for my everyday use except the battery. And the battery is also not a big concern at the moment as I am mostly at home and can keep it charged regularly. And if I go out, I always take my battery pack with me to top up the phone if it goes too low. I am thinking I will continue with this for more time and even avoid a battery replacement, which will save me money and avoid any potential damage to the phone due to a poor job of replacing the battery.

What Android are you running, 11? Mine had horrible battery life, like 50% in 15 minutes because of an issue with a radio app on my phone
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] litetaker:
I am on Android 11. I just uninstalled a bunch of apps and the idle drain with WiFi on has reduced significantly. I will check how the battery life is now.
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] karlmf:
By chance, is your wifi and bluetooth scanning enabled in Location? That scanning can drain the battery.
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] litetaker:
WiFi scanning was on but not bluetooth. I will continue to track the battery life.
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] V0latyle:
I got my Pixel 2 in November of 2017; I haven't noticed a significant decline in battery life, although it does seem that Android 11 is a lot more battery hungry, especially on standby.
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] piggyslasher:
This might be due to Android 11. The battery life is horrible. I also thought the same thing, bought a new battery and turns out it's a software issue.
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] litetaker:
Update: So I did end up putting in a new battery for my Pixel 2. It cost me £60 to do so here in London via iSmash, the official authorized repair partner. Given the retail price of the battery is around £10, the labour cost was £50 which is worth it as I would have damaged the phone if I tried it myself (I nearly did that with an old Droid many years ago).

So I got it repaired on 1 Dec. I have been testing the battery for a week and I do feel that the battery life has improved. I now have to charge only once a day or so after moderate use, kind of like what it was at the start. I do feel that perhaps the Android 11 update is still causing more drain than normal however, but still better than before.

I am using the AccuBattery app and before replacing the battery, the app approximated my battery health at around 1800-1900mAh compared to the design capacity of 2700mAh. Now, it is approximating it at around 2600mAh if I consider the latest charge cycle from 14% to 100% (+86% took about 2251mAh). So I am guessing that the battery replacement was well done and successful. I am also able to make my phone last longer even without turning on battery saver all the time. However, there is still some idle drain when I don't do much but have WiFi/data turned on. I am attaching screenshots. I wonder if this is software issue due to the latest Android 11.

View attachment 5150719 View attachment 5150717

View attachment 5150721

So now, I have 2 questions:

Is there a better app than AccuBattery to get a sense of battery life/capacity? AccuBattery takes many charge cycles to get to a decent estimate.

Is there sometime I can do regarding the battery drain due to the latest Android 11 update? I believe lot of people have raised this complaint and I too noticed an increase in battery drain after the Android 11 update, despite the aging battery. And I seem to notice the same drain with the new battery now.
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] litetaker:
Also, that is pretty amazing! You used your phone for 3 years and still did not notice significant decline in battery life!? Do you charge more carefully, such as only charge to 80% or 90% and not let it drain below 30-40% or something to extend the lifespan of the battery? Also, do you use the phone very sparingly, or is it not your daily driver? Do let us know what you do and how you managed to take care of the phone so well it lasted this long. That would be very useful information!
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Meh I wouldn't have updated it.

Scope storage sucks.

If it's an LI:

Limit charges to 80% or at least stop at 90%

Don't regularly discharge below 20%

Li's like small frequent midrange charge cycles; 40-65% is ideal.

Avoid high temps especially with a fully charged cell; high cell voltage and high temperature degrade the cells much more rapidly.

Never charge a cold battery; 72-90°F is best.
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] V0latyle:
Sorry for the late answer.

I am a heavy user, when I'm at work I generally have my phone on the charger. I plug it in all night too. Standby battery life is pretty good; Android 11 does seem to be more battery hungry, so if I don't use my phone at all, I might get 30 ish hours of life. But, with realistic use, it will probably last me around 8 hours, with the amount of video streaming I do.

I have never paid attention to charge cycles. Phone software handles that, and you'll find that most li-ion battery management only charges to about 80% of chemical capacity to extend the life of the battery. Tesla battery packs will last up to 500,000 miles, because the management software limits the usable charge to about 40% of the cells' actual capacity. Phone software does a similar thing, where 0% is actually about 40% of the battery's capacity, and 100% is actually about 80%. Your phone lives its whole life in that 40% of usable capacity. Maintaining a state of charge higher than 80%, or discharging below 40%, shortens battery life.

I'm not going to pretend that my battery still performs like new, and I wouldn't easily be able to determine that anyway - with the age of the battery and the software updates, it will never be the same as it was.

If I don't **** off at work, or I am not antisocial when we go over to friends' houses, it'll last quite a while, but given my heavy use I tend to keep it on a charger anyway.
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] V0latyle:
Don't have to worry about this. Firmware and software manages battery state of charge. Use it normally.

Also, the "proper" temperature for a lithium battery is between 40 and 80 degrees F. They will retain a better charge at room temperature because low temperature increases internal resistance, but you are not likely to damage anything. Charging, or maintaining a high state of charge at temperatures above 90 degrees shorten the life of the battery.
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
While you can use LI cells in low temps without harming them, charging them at low temps Li plating can occur which will permanently degrade them. The temp I saw stated was >80F.

Others stated standard temp for charging/testing Li's for longevity was a temp of 72F; I wouldn't go much below that when starting a charge.

&

Somewhere below 50-65F Samsung fast charging will revert to slow charging to protect the cell.

You won't find that in literature but you can observe it.
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] litetaker:
I am not sure the software on our phones does anything quite as aggressive as you are suggesting, i.e. charge only till 80% and let you use it only till 40% of the physical capacity. Given the rated capacity of the internal batteries in phones, which can be easily identified via a teardown and how much charge is actually done based on measurements, unless the phone has a setting (some phones nowadays allow you to set an upper limit to the amount of charging to 80% or 90%) most phones including the Pixel 2 do NOT do any such kind of battery management. The Pixel 2 does let you charge till 100% of the battery's actual capacity and let's you drain it pretty much completely as well. So I am not sure what info made you believe that it does such battery management.

Tesla's etc. I can believe do such battery management as it is crucial for the longevity of a very expensive car.

You'll get the snapdragon 865 processor plus android 11 out of the box and a better quality of camera along with 5g
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] jcsww:
You get a newer device that is more up to date. The SD865 doesn't feel a lot faster than the SD855 so you probably won't notice the difference. If you multitask or keep a lot of apps open at once. The 12GB of RAM in the 8T will be useful. Oxygen OS 11 looks like a lot more like Samsung's OneUI with the big headers and plenty of wasted space. Whether you like that or not, to each their own. The cameras from the 7T and 8 are practically the same as what the 8T has, just with an extra and debatably useless addition. 5G, if available in your area, might be worth it. 90Hz versus 120Hz, I personally don't see or feel the difference. Personally, waiting for the 9 is a better choice unless you want a new phone now. If you really want something new, the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G has a lot of the same features and more, but at a cost of half the RAM for $50 less.
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] NotATreoFan:
I'm jumping from the 7T Pro 5G to the 8T. Main thing for me is the flat screen. OnePlus accidental touch detection has been crap since curved screens made it a necessity. I'm happy with the performance of my current phone, but the screen curve and horrid auto brightness (due to hidden front camera) has really worn on me over the past year and a half (7 Pro and 7T Pro).

Hi there,

I have recently installed a Magisk Module on my successfully rooted phone that so far didn't display any problems until I enabled said module (this one: Pix3lify, sorry can't post links)

Now it's stuck in a bootloop and I dont know how to recover my data from this position. I do know how to reinstall the stock rom and re-root just fine, I dont need help with recovery. What I do really wish is to backup some files from the user data partition.

I don't know how to do this as I never been in this position and before I spend all day trying to recover it I was wondering if you guys maybe know a way to do it, if possible at all.

I have access to:

- Fastboot

- Recovery (the BlackView Recovery ROM, no TWRP, couldn't find an image that runs. However, I do have access to `fastboot boot` to flash any image)

- SP Flash tools

As is expected, the device is rooted and the bootloader is unlocked. I just want my data if it's possible. If not, I'll just recover using the method that will remove all data, sadly...

Thanks in advance!

EDIT: I decided to swallow my loss and install the stock rom since nobody replied yet, however, I did make a full backup of my ROM (especially userdata) and I now can see the filesystem inside WWR_MTK, but I can't read /data because it's encrypted (but I know the password) my new question therefore is if i can open up this image still. Thanks in advance!

[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] amirage:
Neither...After OP7Pro, oneplus has been on a downhill route by bedding with several big companies like facebook to preinstall their services. Gone are the rebellious days when OnePlus didn't care jack shi* of what the world thought of them. Their sole purpose, then, was to kill the best available Android device at an affordable price. Today, they keep killing their own devices every six months (or should I say 3 months since the launch of Nord) and have courted and even gone to bed with snooping social media services just so that they can gather another revenue stream. OOS11 is probably the last nail in the coffin that goes against everything the company once stood for. Although I spoke of OnePlus here, don't worry, Samsung isn't any different. They also install a whole load of unwanted bloatware in their software that are quite hard to get rid of even with root.

I don't see how the OP7Pro is slow even though it's an ancestor in tech terms (18 moonths+ years old)! The processing power, today, hasn't jumped drastically neither has RAM capacity. OP7 storage is on UFS 3+ and coupled with a 90hz screen, how is this phone slow compared to today's flagships? If you are looking for antutu/ geekbench scorecards, then you will have to change phones every month because there's practically a flagship every month that sets a new benchmark in these scorecards. Besides, would you be running these benchmarking apps daily or looking at your social media apps, browsing the web, youtubing, clicking photos etc? I'd put my money on the second half of my question. In that case, doesn't your OP7 do a great job at it? For the OP7 to be outdated, you really need an Android version that would slow it down or for OonePlus to deliberately throttle it down via an update. Or....if you are really hard pressed to upgrade the device, damage it beyond repair :) Till then, I'd say to keep the device.
