Hi everyone! I really appreciate it if you can help! I connected my ZTE AXON Pro phone to the computer and deleted some folders and files in my phone through Android File Transfer, and the phone worked normally after I deleted the files. But the next day when I turned it on, it was stuck at the "AXON" logo screen. I went to two repair shops. One could do nothing about it and suggested me to contact a data recovery company since I need the data in my phone. The other shop thought my phone was fairly old (I started to use it in 2017) and they suspected that the battery had gone bad and wasn't supplying enough voltage for a full boot cycle. They ordered a new battery and tried floating it plugged in, but the phone still wouldn't boot. They said the motherboard was also getting very hot approximately where the power supply chip would be. They tried to charge the new battery but nothing brought the phone to life, so they diagnosed it as a power supply chip failure. They couldn't fix it. But I think the problem is caused by me deleting the files that affect the system. After that I put the phone in recovery mode and wiped cache partition, but it still wouldn't fully boot up and it's stuck in bootloop: Now when I turn it on it's stuck at the "AXON" logo screen for a few minutes and then "Android is starting...Optimizing app 1 of 3.""Android is starting Optimizing app 2 of 3.""Android is starting Optimizing app 3 of 3." show up, and then "Android is starting apps." shows up. Then it restarts and stucks at the "AXON" logo screen, and repeats the loop over and over again until the battery is completely drained.

I have some very important app data in the internal storage and I can't afford to lose it. Does anyone know how to fix the bootloop without losing data? Thanks a lot!!!!!

Boot this Androd 5.1 based phone into "Safe Mode":

Safe mode can help you investigate and find problem apps if optimizing app 1 of 1 ... issue is caused by unsuitable or broken apps. You can stop Android optimizing apps by booting the device in Safe mode.
[General Questions and Answers] Yuki Yamada0:
Thank you for replying! I just tried to boot it into safe mode, but it didn't work. When I saw the ZTE logo on the screen I quickly pressed volume down and held it for about one minute or longer, but the phone was still stuck at the "AXON" logo screen and started the bootloop. It wouldn't load in safe mode. I've tried a few times, but it still doesn't work.

What is the best setup for performance on this device? (grouper)

I'm currently using some Android 7.1 ROM and I wanted to stay on this version (or upgrade), but I also wanted to use Parrot mod hahah I don't thinks that's possible, right?

So what is the best performance option that has good app compatibility?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dedq:
Go for Lineage if possible.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gmsalomao2:
So Lineage based on Android 7 works with Parrot Mod ?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dedq:
I cannot tell you specifically about every phone but I think you should take a look at Lineage if you want performance.

You will probably find some information on XDA.

Hi,

Does anyone check whether the 'blue' USB3.0 port on Q+ is actually running as USB3 ? I have a Buffalo USB HDD that has a LED which will display Blue for USB3.0 and Green for USB2.0. When I plug it into the USB3 port on Q+, the LED is only showing a Green instead of blue light. I wonder whether this USB3.0 is also a fake USB3.0 ? Anyone tested it out? Or how do I verify the hardware is indeed comes with USB3.0 ?

Tks.
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] twistedumbrella:
After some inconsistent battery drain, I finally got around to doing some real world testing and found something interesting.

I did the test three ways. The first was to disconnect the AeroActive Cooler completely. The second was to connect the AeroActive Cooler with the fan turned off. The final test was to connect the AeroActive Cooler with the fan on (which runs when the screen is on). The shocking realization was that simply having it connected was draining nearly as much battery as leaving it enabled. Disconnecting the AeroActive Cooler almost quadrupled battery life.

Unfortunately, there is no way to enable the paddles without the fan running, which could at least justify some additional drain. Disabling the fan also disables the paddles, leaving the AeroActive Cooler completely disabled.

Since doing this test, I now disconnect the fan when the phone is not going to be used for gaming. The difference in battery life is impossible to miss. It is unfortunate there is no way to leave the fan connected that isn't practically powering it at max without a single rotation.

Note: These findings are for the AeroActive Cooler 5 and may not apply to previous or future models of the same hardware.
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] cotov:
Interesting... Is that during gaming? Wasn't it the case that having the fan attached allows the phone to throttle later, leading to more power consumption? Don't have the fan myself, just thought it might be possible...
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] Quiexo:
I can confirm this issue occurring on my Rog Phone 5 too. This explains why leaving it connected even while the phone is on sleep drains ~50% within 24 hours. Until recently, I typically leave the cooler connected because I'm concerned about frequently reconnecting and causing wear and tear.
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] twistedumbrella:
I did the testing by checking the battery before and after letting it sit overnight. With the fan set to off, it shouldn't be adjusting any internal profiles. Even so, that would only mean that the fan should be enabled to prevent overheating. It shouldn't have any impact on idle because the fan is designed to not run with the screen off.

Edit: A little extra drain when idle is to be expected when the fan is enabled to support kicking on instantly. The problem is that in both idle and off states, the drain is almost as significant as having the fan rotating.
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] skorpicz:
in disobedience, check the current discharge jsk? i in aida64, try to measure this again but what values do you have in the aida64 battery discharge section it is in mA units
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] twistedumbrella:
Ill have to try that later. I'm also curious what happens if I disable Armory Crate when it's connected.

I doubt there is a realistic fix as a user, but it would be nice to give Asus enough details to improve it (and pretend they'll listen).
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] skorpicz:
one more question, can you eliminate the need to connect an Asus fan for mode x? or can I force mode x without connecting an Asus fan?
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] twistedumbrella:
I would guess you mod Armory Crate or Game Genie (or both) to remove the restriction.
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] skorpicz:
so unlock bootloader and root?
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] Devaanp:
My aeroactive cooler always connected to my rog 5 and I got 10-12 hours SOT (game & social media)

fan speed = high

full gaming = 5++ hours

ultra durable & low brightness DC dimming stay on all the time
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] twistedumbrella:
Screen on time doesn't really apply to this, though. It's trying to find out if having the fan connected and NOT in use is wasting battery.
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] skorpicz:
it would not be better to find a way to get around the need to have an Asus fan for mode x, other coolers are more efficient
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] twistedumbrella:
Other coolers also require the USB-C port, cannot be configured using the stock software, and aren't made to work with the proprietary design and cases.
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] skorpicz:
so otherwise, can the game run without Asus fan x mode?
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] twistedumbrella:
Aida64 confirms it. With the fan disconnected, Discharge Rate sits around 80 mA. Connecting the fan has no immediate impact, but once the toast appears that it connects, Discharge Rate jumps to around 125 mA with the fan off.

Games run without it.
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] skorpicz:
sorry my bad english .... i mean force x mode without asus fan
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] skorpicz:
?what
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] skorpicz:
Link?
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] twistedumbrella:
I don't think it's been done yet
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] skorpicz:
I came up with a mod, did someone disassemble the Asus fan? Do you have any video pics?
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] twistedumbrella:
No. I paid for mine, but haven't looked.

This also seems like a good time to start a separate thread. It's getting further and further off topic.
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] skorpicz:
I get an Asus fan in a few days, but your knowledge about the battery is very interesting and the user rog 5 must know this, otherwise 125mA when the screen is on is still cool but what happens when it is off? still discharging? The CPU should go to sleep if this prevents sleep mode then it is a problem of software, LCD off, power Asus fan power off so maybe a fix will come
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] skorpicz:
when I get an Asus fan and there is a light risk-free opening I'll do a thread and post a photo inside, and in 14 days I'll post a mod if it goes as I have in my head theoretically, I have a fancy Asus fan cover but cooling other triggers remain, RGB away fan gone, Power cooling power bank via USB stand-alone, may help 3D printing when Custom cooling will not fit in the plastic case of Asus fan 🤗🙃
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] twistedumbrella:
I think this is what happens to a lot of people. Some start a new thread that already exists to make sure nobody misses their post, while others take a similar (but unrelated) thread off topic to reach the audience they want.

We are all part of a larger section and an even larger page. Changing the thread is as easy as posting a link. Getting the same audience is as easy as tagging someone.
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] twistedumbrella:
I am unable to run AIDA64 with the screen off and the report appears to be a single point in time. For now, the only metric is the percentage decrease.

That said, it appears to have similar increase in drain with the AeroActive Cooler connected during sleep as it does to having it off. That would mean an increase of almost 45 mA. This lines up to the report of a 50% increase by @Quiexo.
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] twistedumbrella:
I've isolated the issue to the service for the fan (or possibly all accessories).

When connecting the fan, the drain does not jump until the toast. This means it is not the fan itself. There is a slight delay before the fan is registered, but disconnecting is almost instant. My best guess would be that the service is polling well beyond what is necessary for smooth operation.
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] skorpicz:
so the update will be fixed would like to let you know asusu
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] Quiexo:
Apologies for replying to this old post but I want to bring this topic to closure. It appears that the battery drain issue with AeroActive Cooler 5 during deep sleep is now resolved.

I tested on firmware WW-18.0840.2109.176 by charging my device to 100% and attaching the cooler before putting it to sleep. At exactly 24 hours later I came back to check the device and the battery is now at 92%. This is definitely much improved compared to last time where the drain would be about 50% within 24 hours of deep sleep (tested on firmware WW-18.0840.2103.26).

Interesting findings before this experiment:

When I updated my phone to WW-18.0840.2107.151 and inserted the cooler, a popup message appears indicating that there's a firmware update available for the cooler [see Image 1].

I also noticed while AeroActive Cooler 5 is attached, you can check its firmware version under Settings > System > About phone > Hardware information [see Image 2]. Note that the cooler's firmware info is absent when it is not connected.
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] twistedumbrella:
I didn't bother updating the thread because it faded away, but 18.0840.2107.151 addressed the issue on my end. There is still notable drain compared to not having the fan connected, but it is now minimal when in use and almost none when idle.

I didn't test the drain when using the fan, though, so I don't have a baseline to say if that improved at all.

If you are referring to the home launcher, you should wipe caches and data, allow it the permissions needed.

If this doesn't solve it, then install other and uninstall or freeze it.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] einfrein:
Hi!

I recently bought a Redmi Note 9 4G with a Chinese ROM in China, and as you all understand this limits my accessibility to everything related to Google. The phone is running on MIUI 12, and I'm now desperately trying to get access to everything I could on my phone that I bought back in Europe (such as Android OS, Google Play Services and Play Store as well as syncing to my Google account).

A friend sent me a link with a guide on how to unlock the bootloader and subsequently migrate from a Chinese ROM to a global ROM (

https://www.reddit.com/r/Xiaomi/comments/b4phic
). After waiting 168 hours (as demanded from Xiaomi) I successfully unlocked my bootloader, and then tried to flash my phone according to the instructions in the link above. My phone completely rebooted (as if it was a factory reset), and it seems like I was able to download a few more apps than I was able to before. However, it still clearly states that I do not have Google Play Services, and the entire phone system does not appear to be Android. It is impossible for me to use apps such as YouTube, Facebook, Gmail etc. despite being able to find APK-files and installing the apps. There is also no Google Play Store.

Could anyone please help provide me with some clarity on this? It would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

[Sony Xperia 1 III] kot5nik:
IMPORTANT: This no longer works after the update to Android 12. 'wm size' resets itself to default immediately after you change it. If you know (or at least have an idea) of a possible fix - please reply, so far I'm clueless.

I'll edit the post again if anything is found.

If you have already updated like me you can run 'wm density reset' so your phone looks normal again.

So the phone by default runs in 1096x2560 and only in select apps with appropriate content in 4k. XZ Premium did the same thing and it is possible to make always run in 4k. I've decided to try the same on 1 III and it works!

How to:

Enable USB debugging in developer settings

Download and run ADB, you phone should provide the driver automatically. If not, it can be downloaded from here.

Run the following commands

adb shell
wm size 1644x3840
wm density 630

Done! Exit ADB shell by typing exit there.

From my testing this works flawlessly with any app and the 120hz mode. My device didn't get too warm from this, battery now is at 35°C and CPU at 40. No lagging or freezes whatsoever either, everything runs smoothly in 120 fps. The only thing I noticed is that when using always-on display the phone unlock can be a bit slow sometimes, but only when unlocking with said display lit up.

How to undo - the same as before but with these commands:

adb shell
wm size reset
wm density reset

Please report how's your experience and battery life if you try this.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Hildr:
I don't really understand, how will this make the apps render in 4K?

The screen is always displaying 4k resolution (you would have 3/4 of the screen black if it displayed only FHD resolution) but actively upscale to 4k the apps that doesn't render in 4k (so most of them).

Or is the tweak only to make the phone render the home screen and parameters in 4k?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] kot5nik:
No. By default the phone renders everything in 2560, except for rare cases of a suitable photo in Google Photos and a 4k YouTube video, etc. This makes the phone render all the apps in 4k no matter what. I've confirmed this by looking at the text and images in them (via magnifying glass), they're all sharp to a single pixel (and aren't without this).
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Clae:
Is 4K mode restricted to apps selected by Sony by default? Like if I have a random graphic novel reader app, will that be rendered in 4K or 2560 assuming the underlying images are 4K or higher resolution?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] kot5nik:
Seems like restricted to apps selected by Sony. When in default mode, when I open a pic in Google Photos is is in 4k, but when I open the same pic in Google Files (has built-in viewer), it isn't. In "always 4k" mode the pic is 4k in Google Files.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Clae:
That's a damn shame - would it be easy to make a tasker routine or something to issue those commands automatically when an app is launched?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] kot5nik:
I don't think that would be possible without root. But on the bright side, always using 4k surprisingly doesn't seem to affect the battery life much, at least for me.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Clae:
Sounds good. I'll def try it when I get my 1 iii. Does it persist between reboots?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] kot5nik:
Yes it does. Even the reboot screen is a little bit messed up because their animation is not 4k.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] jaseman:
I can understand wanting to get the best possible picture/viewing experience when paying for a 4k screen.

However, can the difference be seen with the naked eye...you know without a magnifying glass? I guess my concern is: Why overwork the screen/CPU/GPU and battery if the benefit cannot be seen?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] ugoff:
Weird. If you take a screenshot before applying these commands, the resolution of the image is 1644 x 3840. After applying these commands, the resolution of the image is 2466x5760.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] enyaj:
Is this totally safe? 😁
[Sony Xperia 1 III] BlazingKahn35:
Could you make an Automate script for this (if you have the knowledge and time)
[Sony Xperia 1 III] MK73DS:
Yes it does. Sony usually upscales the screenshot to make it 4k. Now that the source is also 4k, that upscale makes it even larger.

I hope there's a way to disable this upscale, even when not using the 4k mod, if the content is 1080p then I don't need it stored as a 4k image.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] MK73DS:
Look like this is fixed in 61.0.A.14.3, can anyone else try?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] BlazingKahn35:
Hey I came across this thread on the XZ Premium forum. Do you think that in the future devs are going to adopt this to custom kernels aswell?

https://xdaforums.com/t/adb-fake-4k-vs-kernel-4k.4177573/
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Roberto797:
Just wanted to confirm with evidence that this does indeed allow my Xperia 1 III run in 4k, here is a crop of a macro shot of a 4k test image being displayed at 1:1.

View attachment 5439121

It has a pattern of intersecting lines 1 pixel apart with lines 2 pixels apart at the edge, as you can see all are defined, wheras they where blurred and aliased before the ADB commands.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] tonysunshine:
So one problem I found - setting the display to 4k all the time seems to skew the wireless charging targeting instructions that come up
[Sony Xperia 1 III] MK73DS:
I hope they will fix this soon, and even add a built-in always 4k mode (fixing all the small bugs like the one you pointed out or the AoD not working properly).

The difference between 1080p and 4k is noticeable in everyday use, especially in text. Maybe this is because I was used to a 1440p display for the past 6 years (and going back to 1080p is noticeable) but still, this phone has all these pixels, why not have an option to always use them.

I attached some pictures taken in both modes. The filenames are self-explanatory but I am sure you will be able to find which one is 1080p and which one is 1644p. Diagonal lines especially suffer a lot at 1080p, like for example the letter 'w'. Overall, text looks very soft at 1080p compared to 1644p.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Andrew Lin:
Phone became a bit laggy no?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] MK73DS:
I don't notice any lag, everything is still smooth at 120fps. Maybe in some games? I don't play games so I don't know.

However, it uses a bit more battery, so be careful. If you have a rooted phone, you can have a script which switches between 1080p and 1644p. If you have termux (+ widgets) and sudo installed, you can even put it as a button on the power menu ! (Quick 4k toogle)

Note : I'm not an experienced user, my script may be really unoptimized or ugly, but it works!

#!/bin/bash

if [ "$(sudo wm size | grep Override | cut -d "x" -f 2)" == "3840" ]

sudo wm density reset
else
