[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] Talentooman:
I had S10+ before this device.

Im using same settings and apps. But difference in battery life is big.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] blackhawk:
Unfortunately you'll need to track it down; no one size fits all. You need to figure out which system and 3rd party apks are responsible.

Use what tools are available and ones you can find for that OS.

Even with all syncing disabled on my 10+ Goggle Play Services relentlessly connects 4 times a minute with the internet. Blocking it toned it's battery usage down.

Brave browser is a hog and will run in the background unless forced stopped; closing its window does nothing.

Fun times... Google did nothing to address this and in fact has been making troubleshooting harder with each new OS using security as a ploy.

I ran Kitkat until last year. In 6 years I've never been forced to reload due to malware... bite me Google. Yeah viruses, trojans, etc are real and can/do infect Androids but almost always it's the user's fault. Transparency is what's needed not scoped storage and more user/apk inaccessibility.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] digitaljeff:
Let it settle in for a week. You shouldn't need to disable any packages to get good battery . My s20 gets 6.5-7hr sot without disabling anything and just using the 120HZ medium power saving Bixby routine trick , 5.5-6 hrs on optimized . Don't listen to those who say you have to disable a **** ton of stuff and basically cripple your phone...you absolutely don't .
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] blackhawk:
Depends on the device, the firmware and what's loaded including carrier and Sammy junk.

I've tried it every which way and now have about 86 apks blocked. Some like Playstore and Galaxy updates get toggle on as needed which isn't often.

Every time with power management when it was used it seemed to work but within a few days it became the problem with excessive power consumption.

Plus and even worse it will screw up phone functionality constantly and inexplicably at times.

Android will manage power and go into deep sleep with all buckets active; no power management needed... at least on my configuration.

Because of the time and trouble invested as well as trash features like scoped storage I refuse to go to Q. This 10+ will most likely run happily on Pie and many of its factory loaded google apks.

Yes updates can and will screw things up; update one or two at a time, observe.

Having a fast, stable, predictable system that runs well with good battery life and does what you want is all that really matters with Android.

Security is very rarely an issue even on ancient software if you aren't inept.

As is I'm ready to do a full reload if needed, be back and running in 2 hours and 99% fully configured by that day with bare minimal internet connection required.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] gilzve:
My S20 (Exynos) battery life seems to have improved since the Android 11 / UI 3.0 update.

For sure it isn't perfect but : about 4h SOT and 25% left.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] Talentooman:
Im still waiting for update.. :cautious:
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] blackhawk:
Disable all power management except for screen/power mode.

Android does nicely by its self.

The only thing you should have toogled on is fast charging if you use it. Try it.

Once you got it running well be very careful of updates especially firmware. At least wait a while to see if it blows up the phones of others using it.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] yc_001:
Recieved my Diamond over a week ago and i notice when i press the side of the screen to call or text (number 4 when dialling) i get a small ripple effect, like pressing against an LCD screen. Is this normal?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Sergio PC:
Not here you must be pressing kind o hard.

Did you tweak the pressure on display? That helps muccchhhh.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] kultus:
I get my first diamnd with this fault on left side...only little tap and it was like touch of nontouch screen and even worse and in the place of this effect there was a yellow tinted area so I send it back and get new one...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Nuri58:
I hear reports about yellowish shades in the bottom of the display as well. The ripple effect is also reported. In both cases HTC have said it's not normal and replaces the units. Within 7 days some suppliers gives you a new phone at no charge after that it has to be sent for repair.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] yc_001:
I rang ORANGE and they are sending me another unit. This will be the third i have recieved from them. Lets hope i have none of these problems. I could hack the small faints of yellow but definately not the ripple effect on the sides. I am beginning to loose faith in the HTC diamond
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] yc_001:

[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Questions ] kosmon:
I'm interested in the non Pro Shield for a project of mine, but I require some kind of wired interface (SPI, USB, ...) to attach a keyboard (and preferably other USB devices if possible).

Does the board on the Shield TV expose any pins or similar where one could solder a USB connector? Or could I use an SPI multiplexer on the microSD slot (which I assume uses SPI and not USB)? Any other way to add an interface such as USB or SPI to the non Pro Shield TV?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 3] Euroman1981:
I can't see a forum for the Samsung Gear Active 2, so I am writing this here (hope its okay). I have Gear Active 2 from Samsung and about a month I got the software update which I thought would include the long waited ECG option. However once I installed the Tizen update all that it did was to add fall dectection, and some changed menus.

So my question is, is the ECG option in the latest Tizen update blocked in some areas of the world? If yes can it be unlocked with having to hard and software reset my phone?

[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Themes, Apps, and Mods] eidglfvsgkj:
hi

it seems like there will have a black border on screenshot if set resolution to 4k by "wm size" command on Android pie, and this didn't happen on oreo, so i wrote a xposed module to fix it (remove the black border)

this is a compare of screenshot of a 4k checkerboard with or without this module, left part is before using this module and right part is after, as you can see, after using this module checkerboard showed correctly(not just gray blank) in the screenshot, it means that this module take a "real" 4k screenshot rather than simply scale&crop 1k screenshot to 4k

module is opensourced at here , and apk file can be download at here

Hi guys

I just bought a new S10+, and unboxed the phone to find this strange 'wrinkle' on the left metallic border of the phone.

Doesn't feel normal, so thought I ask if any of you have the same issue on your phones.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Is it the protective film that goes on top of the bezel when new?

Can you remove it with your finger nail?

If not...

If wedge between the bezel/screen it may allow water entry.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] sphererer:
Nah, my phone didn't come with protective layer.

Was told by seller it's new, but likely to be a refurbished set.

Have since gone back to the store to get a replacement. Got another refurbished set again but in way better condition and battery health, so can't complain for now
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] texas:
Hello all,

For some reason I can't get my Tilt to connect to either one of my Vista machines or my XP box. Not sure what the problem is. I've Googled and googled and still can't get it to work.

So my question is, seeing that I can't via Active Sync or WMDC is that going to present a problem when ATT releases the official 6.1 Rom?

Thanks

David

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] lewmur:
The guide to unlocking the bootloader on the newer Samsung tablets seems to cause confunsion about what the OEM Enable switch does. First of all, the OEM switch has no direct bearing on the Bootloader lock. That switch has been around for quite a while but the Bootloader lock is a fairly new addition with a different purpose. Personally, I think OEM Enalble is mislabeled. I should read FRP Enalble. In the early days of Android, if your tablet was stolen, all the thief had to do to get around your lock screen, was to boot to recovery and perform a Factory Reset. To stop this, Google came up with the Factory Reset Prevention (FRP) lock. With that lock in place, if the tabet is Factory Reset, the thief would have to know the Google Account login and password in order to use the tablet.

The Bootloader lock serves an entirely different purpose. Google assumes that any software that they haven't vetted, poses a security risk. Not just for that tablet, but possibly others as well. (IMO, they also think it poses a risk to most users of bricking the tablet.) So they added the Bootloader lock to make installing custom ROMs more difficult. You can't use Odin to flash anything but stock ROMs so long as the bootloader is locked.

Now here is where the confusion comes in. The instruction say to enable Dev mode and OEM mode. You DO need Dev mode enabled in order to flash. But enabling OEM mode only means you don't have enter the Google info after flashing. And the instuctions say to skip adding a Google Account when you first reboot. And without a Google Account, there can be no FRP lock, so OEM Enable is now greyed out. IT ISN"T NEEDED!!!!!

I unlocked the bootloader and have been using the Lineage official rom which is great, but I noticed my phone will reboot whenever I try to play DRM protected streaming movies like on Vudu or Youtube that I own. I thought it was the rom but did a full wipe and reinstall and tried a different rom and the issue is still there. Do I need to relock the bootloader, or will the movies not play since Im not running stock? Im not rooted.

[P3300, MDA Compact III General] cyberhoschi:
Hi,

I just got my new Tomtom Go 730 :D

I tried to connect it to my P3300 for freespeech. The Tomtom found it and after selecting it the screen said I have to enter 0000 on my HTC. On my HTC a message came to connect and at that moment the HTC turned off.

I tried it again but it will not show the message again to enter the key on my HTC and after a while Tomtom stops trying. :mad:

I get the feeling that the HTC messed up and that something hinders the pairing. It is not the Tomtom as I can connect to my other phone just fine.

Also I have noticed when the Tomtom lists all BT devices in range, which are my Nokia Phone, my HTC P3300 and my Laptop, the Tomtom shows a little cellphone icon next to the Nokia (as it should) but shows a little computer icon next to both my HTC and my Laptop. So maybe it is also possible that Tomtom recognizes the HTC not as a phone profile but as a computer profile.

How can I "reset" the bluetooth of my HTC to accept incoming connections again. I tried softreset and took out the battery. I don't want to do a hardreset because I just reinstalled my phone a few days ago. Or if it is the wrong profile problem, how can I tell either the Tomtom or the HTC to use the phone profile?

Any ideas? Any help is very much appreaciated! Thanks!

Hola!! Developers,

I would like to say that the ROM is fantastic. I have installed and flashed the latest Pixel Extended ROM, but while I was checking the ROM, u found out that in the gestures tab , brightness slider is missing , the one with which we can just slide on the status bar with our finger to adjust the brightness (without dropping down the notification panel).. if this feature is present on the ROM, please guide where is it or else add this feature as it's very convenient. Rest the ROM is pretty good , I am really grateful 🙌 to the developers who came forward with this amazing work.

Keep it up !!!🤘👍
[Realme 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] krtaunk93:
Please add the feature of managing the brightness by sliding the finger on status bar. Which was present in the previous version of Android 10 - Pixel Experience Plus. The brightness adjustment just by sliding finger on status bar gives more convenience. Please add this. Thank you!
[Samsung Galaxy S10 5G Questions & Answers] hippy dave:
Hi, I haven't checked in here much since I first got my phone and followed the guides to update & root etc. It seems fairly quiet in here, guess it wasn't one of the massively popular phones.

My phone is currently running this firmware, but am I able to install newer versions from this list, which all match my phone's BTU code? (Also is there a best guide for updating a rooted phone?)

The other thing is the One UI 3.0 update, the old announcements mention S10 series phones getting it, and specifically include the S10 5G. All the recent beta files that have been made available and announced release dates for the official release version mention the other S10 models but not the 5G. Any ideas, anyone heard anything? Anyone officially signed up for betas and know they actually exist?

Cheers!
[General Questions and Answers] v44r:
I liked how Google Play Music let me listen to a file I select in the file manager directly in a small dialog window when I click in an audio file, no media library involved. Now Youtube Music (its replacement) does it too, but I hate that bloated app.

Other music apps I've tried fail miserably to play a file I select in the file manager. They take me to the full app (no dialog) and only play files that are in the system media storage; if the file I just selected is in a .nomedia folder, no dice.

Is there any lightweight app that replaces the simple Google Play Music dialog? Preferably open source?
