[Lenovo Yoga Book Questions & Answers] OrbWeaver:
Hello all. I have recently received a YB1-X91L windows tablet as i a gift from a friend that was not using it too much and i must say that i love it. I have done all the windows updates and everything works nicely, even put a few games on it from gog and they run smooth as ever. Love the forum, found a lot of info here, even years ago when i was looking for a custom rom for my samsung galaxy and even now when i must admit the app for the touchpad of the halo keyboard posted here is a big big thank you ;) .

Now, about my questions, well ... my hdd is pretty small and i am trying to free as much space as on it and to have it as clean as possible, but looking at my C drive, i have two folders on it that i am not sure are ok to delete or to remove:

"C:\$getcurrent" folder and "C:\Recovery" folder (they each have around 4gb ). I have searched as much info as i could online for information and while the "$getcurrent" seems to be a leftover from an update and it looks safe to delete, the "recovery" folder seems to have causes blue screens and other issues for most of the users that deleted it. Can anyone confirm some of these or help me out?

My second question would be about the novo restore (system reset to factory settings ). Is the "restore to factory settings" stored somewhere on the HDD? Would removing folders like the ones mentioned above take away my ability to restore my tablet ? I must say i love how easily you can return to win 10 factory settings and i wouldn't want to delete anything that would ruin that for me.

So can any tech-savvy s around here help with some info about these?

Thank you and sorry about the long post :)

I own a 2017 Nissan Maxima SV and it is only set up to use Apple Drive. Is there a possible way to mod that and get it to work with Android?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] mightymousefo:
Thought I should start a thread for this since several people, including myself, are having some serious problems with this. After doing a hard reset and then soft resetting before setup was complete to prevent bloatware my at&t tilt is unable to connect to WPA secured networks. Any thoughts? I've done a lot of searching with not much info to be found. I was thinking maybe there was a .cab file which might exist that would allow this functionality to be returned but I'm a noob so Idno. Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] expansia:
yeah i also have the same prblm.

whenever i try to connect to a secure network the display just turns off. then i have to soft reset for it to turn back on.
[Android Head-Units] maricmilan:
This happens only recently.

I connect hu on internet through mobile hotspot, but "regular" hotspot too. Unit is connected but youtube, google play dont work.

Dont have slightless clue why?...
[Android Head-Units] blitzcat:
Try this: Go to Date & Time settings, turn off Automatic Date and Time, turn it on again.

Recently I experienced this as well out of nowhere. My HU uses Intel Sofia 3RG cpu.
[Android Head-Units] maricmilan:
Hm, i was dealing with time and date at that time, i ll try it and report with results.

Thank you.
[Android Head-Units] maricmilan:
Actually, it worked, t hank you :)

Today, when i was trying to fix that, i turned it off, but did not turn it on again. :)
[Realme X2 Questions & Answers] TheSilhouette:
Hi, so I tried to unlock my bootloader and flash twrp, I successfully done those things but after I try to flash a custom rom I had this issue where It keeps giving me this message everytime I try to flash a rom or delete the cache

Failed to mount /cache no such device

I tried to go to mount cache but I can't select cache

I also even try using both twrp and orange fox and they have the same problem.

Now I'm stuck in the recovery and can't even flash a rom because it keeps failing. Can somebody please help me.

For those who used the phone for three years, how is your battery condition?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] jimmijam07:
Horrible, to the point I upgraded to a V60 as I couldn't deal with the 1/3 to 1/2 day capacity of the battery.

I eventually did swap out the battery in the V30, after migrating to the V60, and now use the V30 as my work phone.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Malicool:
Thank you 4 the info
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Osprey00:
My battery didn't even last three years. It started bulging last year and I was forced to replace it, which was easier than I expected (though the fact that the battery partly lifted the back off for me did help a lot). For only $15, I got a kit that included a new battery and several tools and supplies to perform the operation. If you're unhappy with your battery life, it's worth doing.

Also, to get the most out of the AMOLED screen, I set my wallpaper to black, my e-reader backgrounds to black and try to use dark mode or dark apps as much as possible (ex. a Sudoku app that's white on black rather than black on white). I don't remember the exact numbers, but I tested reading for half an hour with my e-reader set to a light background and half an hour with it set to a black background and the latter drained about half the battery, so I think that dark backgrounds really do help with battery conservation.

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] schwinn8:
My wife and I still have ours and they're ok, not great. My wife uses her phone a LOT and so I really would love to replace the battery, but I don't want to give up the IP68 rating of the phone. Is there a way to replace the battery and preserve the IP68?

We've also been using AccuBattery app for the past many years, and still says that her battery is at 90% and mine is at "112%". Needless to say, I don't believe it, but so reviews say it's a good way to monitor the health... obviously it's not. My wife gets about 3/4 of the day for her HEAVY usage. I can get through about a day when I use it to my "high" level of usage. Certainly not the "2 days" that it was when new.

Again, I wish companies would go back to replacable batteries... but I guess they can't do that with IP-ratings anyway (or at least they haven't tried hard enough since it's better for them to make them un-replaceable).
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Malicool:
Thank you, But with the application that you spoke about, it gave me 94 percent, and for a full day it consumed 80 percent of the entire charge, I mean, most likely the app is working efficiently

I bought it from Amazon. Here's the exact one that I bought:

Amazon.com: Battery for LG V30, 3800mAh Li-ion Replacement Battery for LG V30 BL-T34 H930 H931 H932 H933 VS996 US998 LS998 Spare Battery with Repair Tool Kits : Electronics

Amazon.com: Battery for LG V30, 3800mAh Li-ion Replacement Battery for LG V30 BL-T34 H930 H931 H932 H933 VS996 US998 LS998 Spare Battery with Repair Tool Kits : Electronics

www.amazon.com

It was easy to install, but, like I said, that's largely because my bloated battery lifted the back of the phone partially off. It'll be more work, otherwise, because you'll need to use the blue stick tool to pry the back off. I heard that blowing a hair dryer on the back for a minute or so will loosen up the glue keeping the back on and make it easier to pry. Check out some YouTube videos.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Malicool:
اا

I understand, thank you very much
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Osprey00:
From what I'm reading, IP68 involves a vacuum seal, so you'd lose that if you replace the battery. What difference that makes to waterproof-ness, I don't know.

I do know that the back of the phone is held on by glue. Once you remove the back, the glue loses some of its effectiveness. I found that I could replace the battery, press the back back on and the glue was still strong enough to keep it together and leave it that way, but I also found that it was much easier to remove the back a second time, which makes me doubt that it was waterproof.

If you really want to make it as waterproof as possible, what you probably want to do is buy the right kind of glue (I forget the name, but a few YouTube videos for replacing the battery mention it), remove all of the old glue and thoroughly apply the new glue. Even then, maybe missing a spot or applying too much or too little might compromise the waterproofness, I imagine, so it's a risk. I think that the benefits of better battery life outweigh the chance that you'll end up immersing the phone in water, though. If you do replace the battery, just be extra careful with it.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] schwinn8:
I don't know if you've been using it for a while, but if you haven't then it won't be accurate. Still, like I said, it tells me my battery is at 110% and the phone doesn't last for more than a day of my usage, which tells me it's not anywhere near that. Bottom line, no way it's anywhere near original capacity after all these years... impossible.

Good point... I could do the glue trick and still be careful. We're usually careful (with the phone), so maybe I just have the battery replaced by a shop, and maybe they can do the glue stuff as well (I don't have the time for it myself). And that would let me keep the phone another 3-ish years... and in a pinch I can get a replacement (which will be an older model, as is my historical preference anyway). Thanks for the post!
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] aventurer:
Nah this is just a scam, look at the Samsung Galaxy S5 for example (IP67) and the new Samsung Xcover line which have IP68 ratings. I'm honestly sick of fragile glass backs without removable batteries.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Wotta:
Many years ago... as in circa 1984... PCs came with little batteries soldered to the motherboard. All these batteries had to do was trickle-charge the BIOS settings RAM and keep the clock running. They were soldered on because otherwise they would shake loose over time, and they lasted a long time.

The running joke, probably born of real life experience, was someone complaining about the clock failing...

Hey, my computer keeps losing its settings.

Oh, that means your battery is dying.

So I need a new battery?

No, you need to upgrade your computer.

Both computers and phones have slowed recently, but three years is a lot of improvements.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] drewcu:
So I just paid someone to replace my 3 yr old LG battery with a SHENMZ 3600 mah which has decent Amazon reviews. Then I did the 5 full discharge and charge cycles as directed by the manufacturer -- nothing really changed.

Accubattery Pro shows ~3000 mah on the Charging/Health screens, however it projects almost 9h of SOT (62h off / 27h combined). So I am getting nowhere near the reported 3600 mah, but also not even very near the 3300 mah of the stock battery which I would be ok with.

Accubattery showed that my 3 yr old LG battery was 3400 mah on the Charging screen and 3288 mah on the Health screen so I am wondering if I should not treat Accubattery's data as accurate? I know Accubattery is taking data points over a long time, so maybe that is why. It did show a 6.5h SOT for the LG over the week prior to removal so not terrible, but actually worse than the ~3000 mah SHENMZ battery.

Towards the end I did feel like the LG battery held a charge better initially after coming off the charger, but then would drain faster over time vs the SHENMZ which drains more steadily.

I am just not sure whether I should trust Accubattery's mah estimation while charging or trust the discharging SOT estimates which I feel like are about right?

I am trying to get SHENMZ to either send a replacement which then I'll have to pay someone again to install it or a refund or ideally both since I am already out time and money on installation already. I could probably install it myself, but I don't want to risk messing up my daily driver.

Lastly, are there any suggestions of where to get a new OEM LG battery or a reliable alternative? My phone feels heavier with the SHENMZ 3600 mah so the extra weight isn't worth it if it performs worse than a stock 3300 mah battery.

Thanks!
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Osprey00:
@drewcu

I installed a 3800mAh replacement last year and didn't notice any difference in capacity from stock. I even went fishing around in the system files and found that it was being treated as 3300mAh (at the time, I thought that the phone was assuming that, but I think now that that's all that the battery reports). When I looked it up on Amazon a few days ago, another buyer reported no higher capacity with his testing. Based on that and your report, I'm starting to suspect that these "higher capacity" batteries are just regular capacity (or, maybe in your case, lower than regular capacity) with higher numbers printed on the side. At least the discrepancy isn't as great as when you buy a cheap 128GB microSD card and discover that actually holds only 8GB, but it's still disappointing. My guess is that, if you ask for a replacement, you'll just get another like the one that you got. You could always buy the one that I linked above that, while also a mislabel, at least seems to be the original capacity (3300mAh) underneath.
