[General Questions and Answers] roddikx:
Hello,

hope this is the right place to ask.

I have an updated Sony Xperia XZ1 compact (no root), and I have an issue with the Aliexpress app (the online store). It vibrates when I receive messages from the seller. It doesn't vibrate at each message but I'm pretty sure this is the cause.

Problem is:

- notifications are disabled from inside the app

- notifications are disabled on android's settings

- I'm always on "do not disturb" mode.

- I even included Aliexpress in the "freezed" apps (those who consume too much battery, as suggested by the OS)

However, I sometimes got woken up at 7 am from a vibration. This is annoying. Anyone can help? I'd rather not to uninstall the app, since I use it.

I made some screenshots, but I can't post the link because I'm a new user: imgur com/gallery/nFCuZDc
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] zeb crs:
Is there anyone else that unwillingly selects itemswhile scrolling?

Often when i scroll down my latest calls i accidently calls someone as my finger scrolls the screen.

Is there any registry setting or anything that can be adjusted how long You have to press to do a selection. The problem is in Manila as well.

Example:

I select all programs under programs tab and scrolls down. Bam! Suddenly I have selected some other program while lifting and setting down my finger again to continue to scroll downwards.

HELP !!!!!

It's driving me nuts. (actually this is the only thing that bothers me with this phone) I used tohave an Iphone before.....

this will alleviate some of the issues.

you can adjust the touch screen sensitivity but it may work against you in other applications.

the 'touch' itself is almost like a technique, press and hold down, then push upwards till almost top edge of screen and stop, repeat steps again if required. This method works well for me be it using TD, Touch series.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] VirtualWaver:
Hi guys,

Noticed a very interesting thing today: suddenly a white light started to pulse next to the front cam every time I was tilting the phone. It was quick 3-4 pulses with strict intervals as if a sensor was working. It didn't pulse when phone was in a fixed position, only when tilting, in all apps.

A reboot fixed this, but I wonder if there is any sensor there that activated because of something? Never experienced this before!

Any thoughts what it can be? Thx.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] znel52:
Sounds like proximity sensor to me.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] VirtualWaver:
Thanks. I also thought so but the phone didn't turn off the screen when I was placing my finger on that sensor. The proximity sensor should turn the screen off as far as I am aware. Maybe a glitch after doing a video call via Viber?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Limeybastard:
A glitch with viber thats causing excessive proximity sensor usage. It will eventually burn the pixels around that area like the other post posted today.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] VirtualWaver:
Thanks for this! I did test my screen and all looks good but this is worrying. However, this only happened once although I use Viber video calls every day.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Limeybastard:
Im going to try this out myself next week and see what's going on. Mine ain't coming until Monday.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Hoe bright is it?

Normally it could blink during SOT and with that duty cycle it will outlast many of the other screen pixels.

Or is there something I'm missing???

Are it's pixels IR?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Limeybastard:
Who's a hoe? 😂

Probably much ado about nothing. But I can't test it. , The only thing that came to mind was screen being full brightness and proximity sensor being on for hours causing this. But just a hunch .
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Even at full brightness because it's flashing, it's duty cycle is less than the surrounding pixels plus it will "flash" by darkening its pixels depending on screen color.

If it has specialized IR emitters I could see that happening maybe; if there's a design or manufacturing flaw.

Because it's flashing visible light it would be hard to use a cam to detect IR... which is how I normally check IR emitters.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Nastrahl:
While it was easily seen on the Note 10 i can't see it on the Note 20
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Interesting. Maybe it uses IR diodes?

If it doesn't display when it's active maybe that's why some think it's "burnt out"?

Lol, until someone mentioned the flashing circle I never noticed it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Nastrahl:
I don't know.

I've read that they replaced all the sensors with the front camera, and that′s one of the battery killer since a few were completely passive like the ambiant light one, that's now active.

When a passive sensor needs no electricity to operate, an active needs to, and the camera can't work passively so it drains battery.

They advised to turn off all the features that use the front camera as a sensor like the auto brightness, smart stay (and also what can use the accelerometer like smart alert and raise to turn on the screen), etc. to avoid the process Android System to take to much battery.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Even passive sensors use some current although it may be in the microamps.

Autobrightness is a trash apk anyway.

Seems highly unlikely that the whole cam be used for these functions if at all.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] warriorvibhu:
Not sure if anyone told you this sorry haven't had time to read the thread but I would suggest avoiding viber calls on this phone. The proximity sensor is damaging the screen when on viber. It seems viber is accessing the sensor too aggressively.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
You know this is most likely a digital circuit; a fixed voltage of an either high or low value... those values are fixed and don't change. Even firmware can't alter that let alone apks. Duty cycle rate/length maybe.

This urban rumor about the proximity sensor causing screen damage has been around since at least 2015, long before OLED screens.

A Google search yielded nothing except this:

https://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Galaxy-S10/Proximity-sensor-issues-S10-S10/td-p/498492/page/9
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Nastrahl:
Trash apk ? Sorry i meant the built-in adaptive brightness.

---------- Post added at 01:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:15 AM ----------

I personally never heard about it. Thanks for the insight
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
My opinions.

There certainly are long standing Samsung issues that span more then one generation of phones. The proximity sensor trashing the screen doesn't appear to exist at all. If anything it conserves screen life.

Auto brightness was always twitchy even on my S4+.

Auto brightness was never truly adaptive... and still isn't. Lol, all it does is give me a headache and waste resources.

The other thing is I always try to avoid using my phones in direct sunlight. Very rarely do I ever go past 65% brightness.

Direct sunlight+high ambient temperature+high power consumption can really overheat a phone fast.

Even worse...

Auto brightness on+charging+sunlight+accidental screen turn on that's not noticed, can fry a phone in a few minutes. Real easy to do in the car... been there.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Nastrahl:
Thanks, i never thought about that so it's a very valuable information.

Just in case if it can be useful :

A few years ago I found an app called Underburn which is a complete new approach about adaptive brightness.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.out386.underburn

Instead of adjusting the screen brightness from the ambient light, it set it according of the amount of white pixels displayed on screen to avoid binding you, and it doesn't care about sunlight.

The more white is displayed, the more it will dim the screen (by reducing the screen brightness, not by applying a filter ; even if there's also a setting for that if its too bright for you even at the minimum level) by the amount of your choosing.

It can play a role to save battery too somehow.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Thank you:cool:

I'll take a look at it. I'm running on dark mode but since it's Pie it's not native to all apps like Gmail which burns my eyes out.

*I'm playing with it. It will run on Pie. It takes some time to set up but definitely has potential.

Hi All,

Did you also notice that 104mpx mode is quite useless and is taking the same quality pics as 12mpx during daytime and is actually much worse during night time, producing much more noise? I can't understand why on Earth we need the 104mpx mode, it doesn't have any optical zoom or other perks. Marketing?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Unbornlegend123:
I notice a huge difference in detail if you crop in to the 1x otherwise I completely agree with you
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
More isn't necessarily better.

As they shrink in size so does their potential area to gather light ie smaller charge quantities to measure. Signal/noise ratio increases as a result.

More processing means more noise as well.

So there's a trade off between quality and quantity to a certain extent.

12 mp is not a small count. Depending if you want postcard, poster or billboard size final display.

A good 2 mp sensor can yield an excellent image...

I am stuck in bootloop with oem unlock off in developers options in settings in my device Mi A1

I installed custom rom (corvus 8.5) few days ago and wanted to switch to stock rom again so I flashed stock rom through xiaomi flash tool

But I accidentally selected save user data in the tool

then I also turned off the oem unlocking option in the developers option (My biggest mistake)

some ota update came and when I tried to install them, my phone stuck to bootloop

i did quite a few research in internet and found out about edl mode in qualcome devices

so i have a few questions which are as follows:

1) can i fix my phone through other means instead of edl mode

2) can i boot into edl mode without shorting the test points or without tearing my device

3) does edl cable work with mi a1?

Hello,

I am trying to add alarm clock sounds to the default alarm clock but they do not show on the list. I do not want to add a third party software. I found a regedit to change HKCU, control panel, sounds, clock entry from alarm to ring but no change even after reset.

Any ideas ???

Thks,
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] phosty:
On my HTC Artemis (O2 XDA) and WM6 I was only able to get .wav files (PCM Uncompressed) to work for alarms, and then they must be less than approx 2.33mb (as reported by XP or ~2,450,000 bytes). They must be stored in the windows directory.

There are .wma files also in the windows directory but none of them appear in the clock & alarms drop down list. So I assumed .wma's can't be used for the alarms.

The .wav files must be 8bit or 16bit and either 8kHz, 11.025kHz, 16kHz or 22.05kHz (32kHz does not seem to work).

It's a bit annoying as I had a good .mid file as an alarm on my old Sony Ericsson and they are tiny (28.3kb). Converting it to .wav made it 2.5mb!!! So I had to trim it down to 2.33mb before it would work.
