[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] SelvaLuis:
Hey there!

I bought a Mi A3 from eBay, missing sim slot and locked from the previous user, and also touch not working properly, everything else is okay.

I managed to bypass the lock using the exploit and everything attaching a mouse with OTG, tried to upgrade to the latest version of Android 11 (February 2021) and the touchscreen work kinda ****ty, works only in some spots and not very well, it's not usable at all, should i change the flat cables, display or install a custom ROM and root the phone? I don't know what else i can do to make it work...

Hey bro, is this version very buggy or is the battery backup & performance good compared to 12.0.1? I'm thinking of updating.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] vinylpimp_UK:
Bought my S9+ in March 2018, changed battery 4 times

Installed battery#1 in Dec 2018 (Battery made in 2018 Feb) it was then charging up to 3300 mAh according to Accubattery

Installed battery#2 in Dec 2019 (Battery made in 2018 Feb), again I was able to acheive around 3300 mAh at full charge

Installed battery#3 in Jan 2021 (Battery made in 2018 Feb), battery could only charge up to 2700 mAh, suspect it was a faulty battery, so bought battery#4 which was made in mid 2020.

Currently Accubattery is suggesting battery#4 can only hold around 2600 mAh.

Which of these following scenario is most likely?

1. Samsung security patches are preventing the phone to charge the battery fully, even though it displays 100% at the top.

2. I was unlucky that both battery #3 and #4 are faulty/ not new as suggested

3. Other hardware inside the phone is perventing the battery to charge fully

Many thanks in advnace for your opinion.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] doubledragon5:
Did it ever occur to you, that what you leave on will cause your battery to drain so fast. Using these apps to monitor battery is imop a waste of tme and probably one of which is actually using a lot of you battery... My battery has been in my phone since it was made back in 2018. My battery last all day long.. At night I turn off wifi, data, location when I'm sleeping.. When I get up in the morning I have a 100 percent charge.. It can stay this way most of the day, until I start using it. But While I work most time it is never used. In the day only turn crap on that i'm going to use, then right back off when done.. Also how many apps do you leave running in the back ground.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] Supernova76:
If you charge the battery to its actual peak capacity then there's a much greater chance that you will over charge it and reduce its lifespan so software can stop charging it when it's close to 100% to make the battery last longer.

You are using the phone while it's charging and using apps to measure the battery stats do use more battery power and these apps can also give you a false reading sometimes. You also have other things in the background and probably have other things enabled and this uses power as well so you're wasting your time by monitoring the battery.

I never changed the battery in my phone and I get nearly identical battery life now compared to 3 years ago. Still lasts me a whole day.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Accubattery doesn't use much power* but Galaxy Labs Battery Tracker is better to track app battery usage. Accubattery has useful info including real time milliamp usage. It's history let's you easily see when you're exceeding what is your normally hourly usage.

You can't overcharge an LI on these phones. However as you increase the voltage of the cells, it causes exponentially more wear.

Best to limit the top charge to 65-80% and a discharge cut off of 30-40% to reduce the battery strain if possible.

Li love frequent midrange charge/discharge cycles. It can extend their lifespan over 100 fold.

Cold charging should be avoided; it can cause Li plating which will permanently degrade the battery. Charging is an electrochemical reaction that needs heat.

Battery should be at 72°F preferably 82-90°F at start of charge cycle. Never attempt to charge if at or below freezing.

Charging (100F), discharging(90F) and storing Li (40-70F) at high temperatures increases wear.

For long term storage a charge level of 50-80% is best to reduce wear. Allow 3%@month for self discharge and do not allow them to fully discharge.

After the phone does a low voltage auto shutdown you have about 1-3 weeks to charge the battery before its internal controller shuts it down permanently.

Typically there's 5% left before the critical cutoff voltage.

Could be less; charge asap.

*best to firewall block it after setup. I use Karma Firewall.

[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Guides, News, & Discussion] glumada:
A few day ago I got my s20 fe (exynos) now after it's rooted I started using it, but I noticed a very anoying behavior. Whenever the battery reaches 43°C ghe phone won't let me continue using the Multiscreen feature, a main reason I bought the phone.

It's not even getting that hot, my previous phones (s7, s10e) got waaaay hotter and didn't stopped the feature that quick using the same apps.

With such a low limit, it probably never let's me use the feature in summer with ambient temps arround 30-35°C unlike my past phones

Is there a way to (with root) raise the limit to a higher value?

I'm really thinking about returning the phone, since I cant use it for the thingt I bought it for.

How to remove some system app in stock firmware?
[ASUS ROG Phone 3 Questions & Answers] Raiz:
You can do that compeltely with root, by erasing the file from your root folder, or you can hide the app via adb and without root. In both case the app won't show up, but if you reset your phone the app will come back if you used the adb method.

Every apps can't be uninstalled/hiden without troubles. Some apps are necessary to your phone, but if you're talking about preinstalled facebook or something like that then no problem.

If you're not sure tell me what app you want to remove, I'll tell you if it's cool or not.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] Rigadelt:
One user reported that he successfully fixed the fingerprint issue on LOS 18.1 using this guide without going back to MIUI.

When I was fixing this fingerprint problem myself, I went back to the latest MIUI ROM. I did not test this method to see if it works without installing MIUI, but it looks like it should work just fine. In case you want to try fixing it without going back to MIUI, do this:

SIMPLIFIED

GUIDE (WITHOUT GOING BACK TO MIUI):

* Back up important data (photos, videos, documents, SD Card, etc.) from your phone to PC, Cloud or other safe storage.

* Make sure that you have OrangeFox recovery installed, if not - install it.

* Download all the files mentioned in the step 4 of my initial post of this thread and put them on your SD Card. (check if there are any updated files before downloading, like newer ROM update, etc.)

* Download attached "Fingerprint fix and MIUI errors" text file, "persist.img" file and "Readme - LOS 17.1 and 18.1 installation" text file.

* Follow the "Fingerprint fix and MIUI errors" text file guide starting from step 8.

* Follow the "Readme - LOS 17.1 and 18.1 installation" text file guide, starting from step 4. I advise not to skip steps 17-18, although I'm not sure if installing latest Mido firmware is necessary at this point. But I think you should install it, just in case.

Good luck!
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] raimerik:
Cheers for all your efforts, @Rigadelt !

I'm trying your guide, as I can't get my fingerprint working in LOS18.1, although it works just fine in LOS17.1 ...

Can I ask you:

1) what for are your steps 10+11 & 23+24 in your "Readme - LOS 17.1 and 18.1 installation.txt" ?

2) at what point/step have you encrypted your phone?

Cheers! raimerik
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] Rigadelt:
Hi, @raimerik

1) I was advised by the Mido Telegram group users that Rebooting to recovery after ROM or GApps installation ensures that there is a lesser chance of errors during the finalizing of the ROM installation. I'm not sure if that is true, but it shouldn't hurt doing it this way either.

2) I did not encrypt my Mido, so I can't answer this question. You can find info in this post: https://xdaforums.com/t/ota-march-2...-mido-vanilla-by-zeelog.4186179/post-83861307

What I would try to do:

* I would follow the "Readme - LOS 17.1 and 18.1 installation.txt" guide and install LOS 18.1 ROM without GApps (step 19 is the last step).

* After 18.1 ROM flashing, I would tap on "Wipe Caches" and then reboot to recovery.

* After the phone successfully reboots to OrangeFox recovery, I would then follow the Encryption guide written in the post I linked.

* After Encryption -> Dirty flash of LOS 18.1 ROM -> GApps installation process, I would reboot to recovery once again, and then try to boot the phone and see if everything works.

If I'm not mistaken, @manizuwo has fixed the fingerprint problem and encrypted his Mido using this guide, so you could ask him for advice.

Good luck! I also encourage you to share the results and info with other users here or in the main LineageOS 18.1 thread. :)
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] raimerik:
Hi @Rigadelt - two minds thinking/tinkering alike! ;)

I had updated and booted the 18.1, encrypted, went to recovery, dirty flashed the 18.1 and the gApps, wiped caches and rebooted.

Then I set up security pattern and fingerprint, which still does ONLY work if you activate SECURESTART which is an annoying bug, which the 18.1-thread-manager does not seem to understand...

[Magisk] Pudah:
I have an old NVIDIA Shield Tablet K1 that has served me very well since I bought it back in 2016.

Recently it was getting filled up and started to slow down, so I bit the bullet and restored the last factory recovery image.

That went perfectly fine except for one problem. I had zipped up my files prior to the reimage. When I unzip them back to the tablet, they wind up with current dates. This really messes things up.

After doing some searching, it seems that this is a limitation of Android 7. I've read that dates are preserved when copying to internal storage only if the device is rooted on this version of Android.

After doing some searches on rooting, I stumbled upon Magisk. Upon reading the installation instructions at https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/install.html, I came away thinking that it sounds too good to be true. The instructions make it seem like rooting my device will be relatively straight forward.

Can it really be this simple to root? Is un-rooting as simple as flashing the original boot.img? I really don't need to be rooted normally. So after I restore my files with their proper dates I'd be happy to un-root. Unless there is some great things I can do with root that I've never needed to do before.

This latest version of Magisk is very new (just about a week at the time of this writing) so I imagine there hasn't been a lot of use of it on an old device like the K1. But if anyone has any experiences using this new Magisk to root older devices, I'd like to hear about it.
[Magisk] Pudah:
In case any other Shield owner stumbles upon this thread, just a quick follow up to say that it was indeed as simple and straight forward as the Magisk install instructions seemed to indicate.

I successfully rooted the Shield and was able to copy back my files with dates intact.

Now off to see if there is anything else handy that I can do with root!
