Does anybody know a good software, which I can use to send my whole contact list via bluetooth from my Touch Cruise to my SonyEricsson W900 ? I know I can do it via Syncronization with MS Outlook, but I prefer to do it like this. Any idea ?
[Xiaomi Mi 10T / 10T Pro Questions & Answers] Kris Chen:
Hello, everyone:

I have one problem for those AOSP ROM that I have flashed in Mi10Tpro - I can enable and disable NFC button in QuickSettings BUT NO FUNCTION AT ALL when phone close to bank card.( PE+/Evox/dotOS/Shapshift ... these ROM seems to have the common vendor - OSS vendor).

It looks like NFC is broken in OSS vendor because It works well when I returned Stock MIUI ROM.

Anyone has the same problem as mine ?
[Xiaomi Mi 10T / 10T Pro Questions & Answers] Kris Chen:
Well ... It's very interesting ... After I installing an app "easy NFC connect&Beam Send Files", it works ...

I can hear the sound and feel the vibration when making my phone close to a bank Card.

[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] kierownikk:
Hi everyone,

I'm having some major issues with my s10e. It started draining the battery very quickly and it now needs to be charged 2-3 times a day with very little usage. I'm talking like 1 hour SOT usage. It's loosing over 5% of battery per hour just sitting on the table doing nothing. I turned off syncing, uninstalled some apps that could cause is, cleared cache and finally factory reset it. I even downgraded from android 11 to android 10 to see if that will make any difference. But no success. Still high battery drain. It sometimes gets a bit warm as well while not being used. Better battery stats reports high mmc0_detect activity. I've checked my wife's S10lite and she doesn't even have that kind of wake lock at all. I googled it and it's got something to do with memory card. However, the problem exists with several memory cards I checked as well as without one in the phone.

Samsung replaced the battery last week under the warranty but that did not help at all. I'm getting really frustrated with this phone now.

Does anyone know what could be the cause?

On the ss below you can see that it lost 12% in just 2 hours with 7min SOT. That's definitely not what it should be.

Turn off wifi. Disable all power management and see what it does.

Disable all cloud apps and FB, WhatsApp etc.*

Disable all Google, carrier and Samsung feedback.

Disable Google Firebase.

Turn off locations when not needed.

You'll toast that battery if you don't tone it down; don't charge past 80% for now to lessen the damage.

*try running in safe mode to see if it's a 3rd party app causing it.

All cloud apps and syncing are disabled. FB deleted.

How to disable google, carrier and samsung feedback?

How to disable firebase?

Location turned off.

I've not had any issues for over a year of ownership. I've not installed any new apps or used the phone in any different way than I used to.

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] M1chiel:
I think mmc0 refers to your internal memory; my guess is that it doesn't work as it should or that it isn't connected properly.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Disable Google Backup Transport, Framework and Playstore/Google Play Services (enable as needed). Clear data on all the former except Playstore as needed. Clear System Logs at same time.

Reboots and factory resets are useless for this issue.

Use this Package Blocker*:

Package Disabler

The only NON-root solution that let’s you disable any unwanted packages that come pre-installed / installed with your phone / tablet.

www.packagedisabler.com

Use Karma Firewall (Playstore) to lock it down better.

* you can block all cloud junk, carrier updates and any bloatware as well. Some apks have dependencies so bare this in mind when blocking.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] kierownikk:
So with google play services disabled the battery drain is pretty much the same.

Also disabling google play services results in my phone constantly throwing notifications at me saying that some apps need it to work properly. Also without google play services I can't use Google Pay which is a no no for me.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] kierownikk:
That's what I managed to find out but I don't understand how would it not be connected properly? Besides, everything works fine, all apps, photos, music, it's all there and works on request.

Hello all,

It is currently very hard to get hands on some genuine Samsung batteries or Anker batteries. That being said, do you guys have any recomendations on batteries brands? As far as I know, AKKU makes the only good quality batteries for the i9100. https://www.polarcell.de/en/mobile-phone-batteries/samsung/galaxy-s-series-polarcell-li-ion-replacement-battery-for-samsung-galaxy-s2-gt-i9100.html

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] It_ler:
Oh ... Good old S2.

As I do no longer own this device (it's years ago), I am no up-to-date about batteries for it.

If I remember correctly, most users said that stock Samsung batteries had best quality. But IDK if Samsung still produces and sells those batteries.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] xerrrman:
I'm going to try with a couple of PATONA batteries, I had good experience with that brand with photo camera batteries
[Galaxy S II Accessories] 2331151796:
Late reply, but I have been using PolarCell batts and they are decent. Nothing compared to the OEM batt, but not too bad. I bought 2, I might try Patona batts to compare then share the results here. Thanks for the suggestion.

For anyone interested in picking some up...

Patona

PolarCell

Patona also makes a cool dual battery charger with a screen to show the percentage.

[Redmi 9 Power / 9T] shintsan88:
Does "hiding the Magisk app" and turning on the "MagiskHide" toggle in the Magisk Manager app still work nowadays? I want to root my Redmi 9T, debloat, get rid of all pesky advertisements - and still be able to use banking apps, Netflix and McDonalds app in the process.
[Redmi 9 Power / 9T] cbw:
You can debloat the phone without rooting or unlocking bootloader, with Xiaomi ADB/Fastboot Tools.
[Redmi 9 Power / 9T] fuadhdmini:
And to answer your question. Yes magiskhide still works. And to guarantee of its effectiveness, it's advised to also change the package app name to something other than magisk

[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Android Development] paradox.hm:
Thanks for your hard work Bro. it's really fantastic.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Android Development] satsedom:
I can confirm, that in general it works not bad on my Z3+(E6553). Currently spotted problems:

1. Very laggy camera, when adding Wifi using qrcode - impossible to use.

2. With NikGapps Core impossible to get Contacts synched with Google account. Will try to install basic or full edition - maybe it will help.

EDIT:

Issue #2 is solved. Google Contacts gets normally synched, when NikGapps Core is installed right after Android ROM flashing with no reboot, as per LineageOS wiki guide:

"Google apps should be installed via recovery immediately after installing LineageOS"

Look for Installation title in: https://wiki.lineageos.org/gapps.html

3. Some apps cannot be installed from Play market. At 99% of download Goggle store informs "Can't download <name of app>". Currently only one thing goes in to the head - something is not right with Gapps permissions and applications with obb cache cannot save it to right location.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Android Development] julio140198:
I'm really impressive about what you made, it is working nice and fast charging is present (not recommend because phone gets hot as h...). Navigation gestures, camera, both speakers, bluetooth... Congrats!!!!
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Android Development] kevin0408:
Thank you for your efforts, it works normally, but there are some minor problems on my phone:

1. The rear camera cannot focus correctly,

2. The liveDisplay cannot be used,

3. The network time cannot be obtained correctly, and the factory time will be restored automatically after restarting. I need to manually correct the time.

It seems that fast charging is not supported.

The others are very good, thank you very much for your contribution, it is really very useful.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Android Development] tarkzim:
- There is not much i can do to improve the camera for now...

- LiveDisplay was removed before the initial release, because of a problem that could cause the kernel crashing, but it's already fixed and will be added back in the next build.

- I'm not really sure what's causing your problem with Time, because it's working fine on my "Z5" and should be the same on Z3+/Z4 too.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Android Development] NeloxAreis:
Thank you so much for the work!

It worked nice on my XperiaZ4 during the last week.

And the radio app also worked well, much help.

Camera...nearly gone but frankly speaking, I won't count on the camera after unlocking a sony device :)

Fluencey is awesome, much better than official 7.1.2

Thanks a lot

I noticed some features that doesnt work on my device (E6533):

-Mic (when I try to use, the app force close).

-Bluetooth, first release it worked but for now, impossible to use.

-no sound when gaming (obb games in general).

-recovery wont work, a lot of error messages and wont flash anything.

-camera wont focus and taking a long time to shot (as you said camera wont work).

Otherhand multitasking and overall usage works nice, smooth animations, fast opening and excellent ram management.

Remember, that i don't have this device physically in hand, but i have a Z5 which is almost the same device.

And for reporting bugs, please attach logcat, otherwise it's not helping with anything, because some of them is totally fine on my device.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Android Development] dcardus:
First of all, I would like thanking you for the support to this device, as we Z3+/Z4 Users stuck in Nougat.

I have been using your rom for nearly three weeks, during long battery testes, performance, and the user experience. I classified how the system did, including the bugs I saw.

Level of Importance	Bug/Error	Personal Opinion
Minimal	Sound is a bit choppy in higher frecuencies.	This only has happened to me in 3rd party apps. Like Clock (when you set an alarm) , Twitch. It happens when the chip is surpassing the 41º degrees.
Medium	Some apps cannot play voice recordings	It is working with the stock default recorder, but in messaging apps like Whatsapp and Recorder by Google. Few apps crashed at starting the record. The good thing is that is at least working in Telegram.
Medium	FM Radio not working	I know, it is already in the post. yet after some days it was working unexpectedly. I have no idea how, but after a reboot it just stopped giving signals.
Critical	Play Store cannot install apps containing OBB files

(Microsoft Office, Heavy games, among others...)	I recently wanted to install manually a game with these kinds of files, and I realized something with a Root Explorer Manager....

(Check screenshot below)

Some permissions are not properly adjusted in this folder, this might be the bug. Was it caused by the GApps Package? I flashed NikGapps Full Package. (1-May-2021)
Critical	Camera cannot recording	I wish you could finally make it work in 3rd party apps.

I recorded some logs if you want to take a look.

(Camera, Sound...)

Final Words...

I remember when the OS started for first time, it was really hot, more than usual, some Gapps just was keeping crashing, I let the phone to cold down, and worked.

After few hours sync was not working properly, so I decided to make an update manually from play store. Then all apps started to work perfectly.

Nothing to say about perfomance, it is much better than the Lineage 14.1 Nightly Build. You really nailed it!

Thanks for your time.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Android Development] tarkzim:
About your feedback:

-Sound issues should be improved in the next build.

-Haven't met any voice recording problems here. (Z5)

-FM Radio was always a pain in the ass, since my headphone jack is broken and my device is Z5,

I don't really know how to deal with it. but someone reported that it works.

-I have faced some problems like you while trying to download apps with obb, but after flash GAPPS package

over it again, i am able to download them, but still don't know the real reason. (using MindTheGapps)

-As i said camera stuff in this device is a mess, i can't really make any change to it, you will know if some progress has been made.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Android Development] dcardus:
What a pity to heard that about your headphone jack, but you know it was working totally fine, then one day the app keep closing by itself, I don't even modified the system partition. I should clean cache... Maybe could work.

Thanks! Next build I will flash MindTheGApps, there seems to be a problem with NikGApps, luckily there are more Unofficial Gapps to try out.

I will be always up to day for every publication!
