For a laptop, they either come with them built into the motherboard for CPU's prior to Gen 6, or they come in the CPU, my point with Acer is that theyre cheap laptops and so if it wasnt there at launch, you wont be adding it later.

Laptops that come with TPM from that age were in some business model Dell/HP/Toshiba, but VERY rarely in Acer...read earlier comment about acer being cheap

My personal guess is we won't see another utility for a while until they collate and analyze enough data from users on 'borderline' hardware (ryzen 2000 series, intel 7th gen). Supposedly this is one of the key targets for this early beta, since they meet the requirements feature-wise, but have limited manufacturer support due to being 'old'.

New gripe, yesterday after the latest update on Windows 11, the hateful new context menu (both on desktop and in explorer)is back and being enforced

Probably designed by some millennial gui wunderkind who stabs at a tablet like a dumb monkey has no idea about how stupid and productivity sapping that stupid menu is...having to click Show More Options all the time....

We use desktops for Windows in the real world asshat

You could get rid of by disabling Launch Folder Windows In A Separate Process, but thats seems to no longer be the case

Making me want to revert to Windows 10 and stay there at this point, they can stick their feedback and telemetry from us testers where the sun doesnt shine because they already knew we hated that and most had disabled it. This is the Start Menu all over again Microsoft:"we have telemetry data showing no one uses the start menu". 3 years later afetr several 3rd parties have made plenty off start menu replacements, they put it back (although still a reduced crappy and hobbled shadow if its former and useful self)

For anyone else who wants to throw their PC out of a Window after the latest update, heres the solution, though it alters the taskbar as well:

Update (7/16/2021):

The latest update, Windows 11 Build 22000.71, appears to have broken the registry hack that uses HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\SeperateProcess.

However, restoring the classic taskbar by setting HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Shell\Update\Packages\UndockingDisabled to 1 will still give you the classic File Explorer, along with a Windows 10 taskbar.

Source: https://www.tomshardware.com/how-to/restore-windows-10-explorer-windows-11

You have to wonder why they ask for feedback if theyre going to ignore it, and now that people are turning the new taskbar and explorer off, whats the point of feedback at all because people will have it disabled for the next update they put out and wont notice any changes

Microsoft...it was better when Bill ran it, and not millennials obsessed with tarting up to make the gui to look pretty

More tweaks for non-millennials who actually need to do some work on their PC here:

Please emulate windows 7 or 10 task bar on Windows 11 · Issue #766 · Open-Shell/Open-Shell-Menu

Windows 11 apparently has castrated and crippled the task bar a lot, a huge lot, Can only be located on the bottom, you can not disable merging buttons, paratactically no context menu. This is usel...

Yes, but it's not a new thing.

Microsoft provides at least five years of mainstream support, followed by another five years of extended support.

The Windows 10 support lifecycle has a five-year mainstream support phase that began on July 29, 2015

When will Microsoft end support for your version of Windows or Office?

"Set it and forget it" is no longer an option for the software that runs your business. For Windows 10, the support clock runs out sooner than you might expect. Here's what you need to know.

Hey all, once again back with another port, hopefully you all are having a good day at the time of reading. This time I wanted to bring a lil fun thing to the Surface for people. Now yeah, I know people want Minetest, but I'm working on that. For now, here's ClassiCube instead! EVERYTHING WORKS!!!! There are NO issues.

I would recommend changing settings as it will definitely help performance. Especially on the Surface RT, I'd assume. I only have a Surface 2.

As said, Minetest will be here soon enough, but right now I'm dealing with issues with my knee, a slower laptop, etc. I'm doing what I can, though. I'll post Minetest as soon as I get it working ; ).

It's easy. Just download the exact firmware package for your phone and get the boot.img file out of it by extracting. Then download magisk manager app to your phone and you can patch magisk binaries into your boot image using boot patcher of magisk. Finally flash that patched boot image to your device using ODIN (if samsung) or ADB. That's it. But more importantly remember you need to unlocked your bootloader to do it.

Your TWRP isn't working tho. Don't force people to get their devices bricked.

Hi, I have a moto c plus moto c plus xt1726.

His USB port is damaged and doesn't work, but I was still able to install roms through TWRP.

The problem: Yesterday I tried

Install a Custom Rom through TWRP, but something went wrong.

The smartphone doesn't leave the blue logo anymore:

View attachment 5335043

Then I accessed the recovery mode (Volume+ and Power). The installed rom seems to have modified the recovery interface, and now it looks like this:

View attachment 5335047

The problem is I can't reinstall the rom.

I accessed "Apply Uptade", selected the sd card, then the rom(zip), but I get the error message:

View attachment 5335049

I can't recover the moto c plus because the usb port doesn't work, and I also don't have access to android anymore, and consequently I don't have the TWRP anymore.
[Moto C Plus Questions & Answers] cyclone.5353:
yes you can do it in many ways. SP tool is a little bit problematic. you can choose the simplest way on this planet. the software's name is rescue and smart assistant. it has a guide for lenovo/motorola customers.

1- download Rescue Lenovo from here

2- follow the exact procedure of the software.

pros: it will unlock device's code so you can have a very easy bootloader unlock using fastboot.

cons: it will remove twrp. (your's is already destroyed though)
[Moto G30] surfmadpig:
I'm almost decided. I'm buying the G30, and the battery is one of the main reasons.

I'm tempted to buy the Amazon-exclusive 6GB version. Everything else on board is identical; just 6GB instead of 4GB RAM.

However, would the 6GB affect battery performance vs the 4GB version, whose battery benchmarks are pretty much where I need them? Does anyone know?
[Moto G30] blackhawk:
Depends somewhat on the memory type.

My Note 10+ has a older generation of ram memory than the N20U. With 12 gb of ram all I notice is snappy performance with good battery life.

The impact of 2 gb of extra ram on battery life should be very small. 6 gb is the minimum I would have so it's a no brainer to go for the 6 gb variant.
[Moto G30] surfmadpig:
Thanks! That makes sense and come to think of it my previous phone was 6GB too so I shouldn't downgrade.

Some interesting answers here if anyone else has the same question:

https://www.reddit.com/r/oneplus/comments/j1os1g

How RAM usage effects battery drain?

I'm really confused about Android memory management. I just read here that killing apps by swiping from recent list or using task killers won't save your battery but drain more because this cause ...

[Moto G30] blackhawk:
Right now I have two browser open. You'll want the 6 gb. I reccomend staying away from Android 11, it's a hog that gives little in return.View attachment 5335165
[Moto G30] surfmadpig:
Hmmm... I don't know. For the specs I'm looking for, there aren't many more options out there.

Yes, the G30 is no flagship but it's got exactly what I want: great battery, it's not too large or bulky, dual sim, it doesn't have MIUI nor much bloatware, has decent camera.

I don't think I have many more options with somewhat decent specs, esp. at 6GB.

There's the G10 but it's got bad Wi-Fi, and all the 'power' models are worse in other specs, I think.
[Moto G30] blackhawk:
I never use wi-fi, it's a security risk. No need for it if you have an unlimited plan except as a hot spot.

By enabling only wifi updates then setting Playstore etc to only do automatic updates by wi-fi you can stop those apps auto-updates from raising hell. I use the wi-fi options like that🤣

Get best rated phone with best specs in the class you're looking at. The more of that model sold the better the support and parts availability.

Consider used models in excellent condition as well; example, a Note 10+ 512 gb can be had for $650. Just check the display for burn in with Screen Test before accepting. B&H Photo gives you a 100% return policy on anything you buy from them.

Batteries are fairly easy to replace even on the 10+ so don't sweat that.
[Moto G30] surfmadpig:
Nah, that approach doesn't work for me at all. It's not even about class, as not all the phones in each class have the exact same config.

Firstly, almost all flagship phones are huge anyway, and I don't like huge. Then they almost never have better batteries than this. A good phone is no use if you can't keep it on.

Then, many excellent phones use MIUI, which I loathe. And so on. I'm not above used and refurbished models, but only when they fit my requirements.

I don't have an unlimited data plan cause there's no need for that. I use 2-3GB total and that's how much I need.

Different strokes. Thanks for your help though :)
[Moto G30] null0seven:
Is a Good phone. 90hz, Awesome! Big battery. It depends on the user how long it last...

If you don't use wifi, bluetooth, nfc and apps that eats power will last for a long time.

Very good value for the money.

New, not from the store, around 100$, in my region/country. 6/128 gb

I use Note 10+ 5g, the most beautifull phone. Good? Not so much. That 90hz (G30)over 60hz (Note 10), on the G30 matters! Huge price! I pay around 650 $ last year, in the summer. G30 moves better. Less bloatware.

Welcome to XDA🤗 Enjoy.

Try turning off all power management.

Disable all the cloud crapware ie Google Backup Transport and Samsung's junk.

Turn off Google Firebase.

Disable all Google, app, carrier feedback.

Get rid of FB, WhatsApp etc if present... pure malware.

Disable Google Play Services and Playstore when not needed. They are busy bodies that waste your power mining your data.

Do what you want. I don't have time for this.

If you think erratic behavior whilst using more battery is a smart phone... it's a lick on you.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] enigmaamit:
I think this is a little too extreme. It's like removing the brakes, body panels, air conditioning and suspension of a Rolls Royce to make it lighter and and more fuel efficient. Not sure you'd get your money's worth with the handicap that remains after disabling everything in that list.

Not trying to pick a fight here, I have nothing personal against you - I'm sure you meant well. I'm just saying that not everyone can live with a severly handicapped smartphone with most of the social and connectivity features disabled.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] enigmaamit:
Which firmware? How did you "flash" it? Are you rooted? Were you on a Custom ROM before? DId you use Smart Switch? How long has it been since you cset up the phone from scratch?

Need some more details.

There's hardly any information contained in your post to try to figure out how to help you...
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] blackhawk:
Power management... destroyer of worlds.

Ever since it's inception it hasn't worked right causing erratic behavior and even increasing battery usage.

Android manages its self just fine without it.

You need to sort out the trouble making apks because the shotgun power management approach doesn't get it.

Gookill apps are some of the worst offenders as well as data miners. I gain 1-2% more battery life by disabling Google play Services; unless I need to view gmail, use Gmaps or Playstore it stays disabled. Google play Services runs ever worse with power management enabled. If you need Google play Services than keep it enabled and take the battery and data hits.

I get about 7-10%@hour battery usage on a estimate 4100 mAh battery on my Note 10+ with very heavy browser and streaming usage. Unfortunately unless you take the time to learn who/what are the troublemakers are, you will be at their mercy... and machines don't feel empathy.

As for social apps consider the security liabilities and implications. They can and do destroy privacy, careers and lives. All can be hacked in a number of ways and are prime targets.

Maybe you're having too much fun to notice the rapidly approaching tarmac.

No FB or WhatsApp crapware running on this phone... I was born at night but not last night.

An old joke sums it up.

Q: Can you keep a secret?

A: I can too.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] enigmaamit:
I like how you worded that ;) :D
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Joloxx9:
If you don't have time, we'll not my problem. I just think disabling everything in smartphone is not an fix as mentioned in previous post. But anyway without proper data from OP there is barely anything we can do to help him.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] blackhawk:
I got time but not for ineptness...it's not a desirable trait or skillset.

The OP needs to ferret it out and optimize the device as they see fit. All I can do is point out know issues and possible workarounds for a stock Android.

There is no quick fix as there are multiple issues.

[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] maleforwork:
maybe this is the latest issue from new updated software version, first try to factory data reset before (backup the important data first with smart switch), then if it's feel same, try to disable the most battery consume one like power management and google play (and play service) just for a day to compare with the default setting before.
