Welcome to XDA🤗

Really if you find malware just be happy if you can erraticate it with no damage.

The longer you play with it, the more that can go wrong.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] leonardo_evaldy:
Hi Guys. Here is the thing:

the speaker of my Mi A3 got lower after an update. I could notice that, the last four levels os the volume adjust simply doesnt change the volume in speaker. I restored factory settings and the sound got louder again. But just after android update again, the sound got lower again. It seems that old history about "programmed obsolescence" (I really don't know if this is the correct expression in english, sorry).

They make an update to make the sound in the speaker got lower. So you think it's obsolete and need buy another cellphone.

If you ask Xiaomi, they will probably say, ooo its just to save batery becouse your cellphone is old and need to save batery... (yeah right...)

I'm pretty sure its a firmware "change" (lets say "change", to be polite).

Any one knows if there is a way to "unchange" this.?

Thanks all.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] wetito:
you talk about latest stock android 11 update???? it's a software problem, i'm quite sure. try to make a clean installation of previous version (may security patch). and tell me if solved your problem. but the best solution is switch to a custom rom. i suppose that your phone(like mine) is two year old. actually i'm on android 12 beta and sounds are good. with june patch i had your same problem. google have insterted into mixer path xml a code to limit the max volume to 50%. installing firmware may security patch sure will solve this issue
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Rule #1, if an OS is fast, stable and fulfilling its mission, let it be.

Constant change means constant issues. I'm still running Pie with no issues and very low maintenance even on a load over a year old.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] wetito:
Pie is the best for stability... And battery. But I don't like systemui. Update or not is a personal choice. Personaly i'm Happy with android 12. Obviously every update must do with max attention and accuracy

[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] uoY_redruM:
With the announcement of the 1-year extended warranty, I went to go replace my battery today at ubreakifix. When I picked it up, the employee gave me the feeling they didn't actually work on my phone but billed Google for the work. Besides the fact that the things he said made me feel like they didn't actually work on it, I noticed when I picked it up the battery was within a few % of when I dropped it off. I'm trying to see if there's a way to check capacity or anything of that sort I can do to verify that my battery was or was not actually replaced.

I appreciate any help.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Your SOT should noticably longer.

New batteries typically have around a 50% charge on them.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] uoY_redruM:
It was around 47% when I picked it up but I dropped it off at 53% which I thought was odd. That's good to know the range is correct for a new battery though. The guy was sketchy and made several comments that made me think he didn't actually touch it. I was hoping to check capacity or something to verify the change but I'll use it tomorrow and see how the battery life compares. If I'm still having battery issues, I just wanted to have concrete proof if I went back. He made a point to say "if it's still acting up then you'll just have to call Google and have the device replaced instead".
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
I've seen a lot of bad techs. You could always take it to a 3rd party repair if it turns out the battery is still defective.

Maybe he's just shifty acting in appearance only.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] uoY_redruM:
Yeah hopefully he was just awkward or something lol. I'll see how it plays out the next few days. Hopefully he replaced it. I plan on buying the Pixel 6 Pro but it would be nice for this to hold off until that comes out.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] Lughnasadh:
You can use AccuBattery to check estimated battery capacity. You'll have to go through a few charge cycles to get an accurate estimation.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] uoY_redruM:
I might give that a try as well. I heard that just estimates but I guess that's better than not having any idea at all. I'm doing the first full charge since I got it so I'll download AccuBattery and run it the next couple days. Thanks for the suggestion.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
It's total battery capacity estimates are not accurate. If you had been using it before it's SOT/% history would be useful.

I use it track my battery usage % vs SOT to spot misbehavior.

It's charging time/% history is also useful for monitoring charging. Erratic fast charging is one of the signs of a battery failure.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] Lughnasadh:
It's accurate enough to give you an idea if you got a new battery or not.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
It can be off quit a bit, 10% is typical.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] Lughnasadh:
It can also be pretty accurate, in my experience.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
It's history is but the actual mAh measurement isn't.

With no calibrated reference of the voltage to mAh ratio it can only do so much. I believe it's measuring voltage drop and calculating current and mAh from that instead of voltage×current.

Whatever the reason(s) it's absolute battery capacity isn't accurate.

I maybe mistaken but even though some power controller chips have current sensing capabilities, Android doesn't use that readout or make it available to any apks.

An Android shortcoming.

A Developer here maybe could or has shed light on this before.

Edit: some brands/models can apparently:

Measure device power | Android Open Source Project

source.android.com

No information on Samsung models that I could easily find.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] Lughnasadh:
Like I said, I have found it accurate enough in my experience. New phone is around 100% estimated capacity. Year later, 90% or so. Year later 85% or so. Done this with several phones.

Not here to debate or argue about it. If the OP doesn't want to use it, they don't have to.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
That 10% is from the original OEM battery and the replacement. Android it's self lists it at 4100 when it should be 4300 new. Accubattery uses the Android figure unless you change that value.

He'll get a good enough idea if the phone last longer during usage. It should be a noticable improvement... and I hope it is.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] Lughnasadh:
The battery capacity for this phone is 3,700. Like I said, I'm not here to argue or debate it. You do what you want and the OP will do what they want. So please stop quoting me. Let it go...
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Ok🤣
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] uoY_redruM:
Just reporting back that it was definitely changed. I charged it before bed and decided not to put it in the charger over night to see what happened. I woke up and it was still at 99%.

It's been off the charger since 11pm yesterday, it's 8pm now and I still have 16%.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Good deal👍

Guess the tech just has a guilty face🤣
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] zetsumeikuro:
Another way to check is with this online tool https://bathist.ef.lc/ Battery Historian. Make sure to charge your phone to full keep on the charger for a bit longer even after 100% If you can do it with the phone powered off that's even better. Turn the device back on take a bug report and upload it to the site. Then look for the "Coulomb charge" value and mouse over it. It will show you how much the device charged in Mah say for example you see 3650 then you divide it by the battery capacity for our device which is 3700. This means your battery health/capacity would be about 98.6%.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Assuming that phone has accurate current sensing hardware and it's readout is available. All Androids report voltage relatively accurately... current not as much so.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] flash713:
You can try an app like AccuBattery and monitor your battery stats a few cycles or just keep an eye on your battery stats. That is one way to tell if you need a new battery. I bought my coral used and battery was fine but is definitely crapping on me now. Sometimes I get slow drainage and otter times fast and I always have a fantastic signal. Mine seems to drop extremely fast about 20% of the time now and most of the time it seems alright but definitely inconsistent and need a new one.

What's battery life like now for you usually? I've never had mine run out in just a day on me but I know it's going out. Lately I get four to four and a half SOT and about 15-16 hours total. That usually lands me at about 25% -20% and that's when I usually plug in for an hour. I used to get much better battery life than this which is why I know mine needs replaced. Good luck.

So, I was going through and removing bloat from my phone and was trying to remove the Samsung Contacts app through `adb`, but apparently I removed the wrong thing and now the Phone, Messages, and Contacts app are crashing every time I try to open them. I removed "package:/system/priv-app/SamsungContactsProvider/SamsungContactsProvider.apk=com.samsung.android.providers.contacts" which is apparently a core service. I'm wondering if anyone might know how I could reinstall that APK?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] rtd4:
install this apk should solve the problem
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] blackhawk:
If worse comes to worse a factory reset will.

A lot of the bloatware is useful. I prefer to use a package disabler as I can easily toggle them on or off as needed real time.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] darkfrog26:
It sat for a minute trying to install and then came up with, "App not installed" and says that every time I retry.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] darkfrog26:
Trying install via adb I get: "

Performing Streamed Install

adb: failed to install /home/mhicks/Downloads/SamsungContactsProvider.apk: Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_DUPLICATE_PERMISSION: Package com.samsung.android.providers.contacts attempting to redeclare permission android.permission.SEND_CALL_LOG_CHANGE already owned by com.android.providers.contacts]"

Hmmm, perhaps I should remove Google Contacts first...

Okay, that helped, but now I'm getting: "

Performing Streamed Install

adb: failed to install /home/mhicks/Downloads/SamsungContactsProvider.apk: Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_VERSION_DOWNGRADE]"
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] darkfrog26:
I thought deleting the "com.samsung.android.providers.contacts" might solve the problem, but trying gave me: "

./adb -d uninstall com.samsung.android.providers.contacts

Failure [DELETE_FAILED_INTERNAL_ERROR]"
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] rtd4:
try these commands on pc

The first command returns: "Package com.samsung.android.providers.contacts installed for user: 0", but the second command returns: "Failure [-3001: INSTALL_FAILED_REJECTED_BY_BUILDTYPE]"
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] rtd4:
If you have deleted the apk with root you just have to paste it again in the folder /system/priv-app/SamsungContactsProvider
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] darkfrog26:
@rtd4, unfortunately, this device isn't rooted.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] rtd4:
It is somewhat complicated to recover the device without wipe :( in the past I had these problems, it was solved with a higher version of the application
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] darkfrog26:
@rtd4, I suppose it's time for a wipe... Thanks for trying to help me. :)
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] blackhawk:
If you had made a copy of all your apps including system apks with ApkExport you could now use that copy to restore it.

Now before you factory reset make a copy of your installed apps and any system updates then save it on the PC or SD card. After the reload you won't need Playstore. It speeds things up a lot...

APK Export (Backup & Share) - Apps on Google Play

Manage and extract your apps.

play.google.com
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] darkfrog26:
@blackhawk, thanks for the tip. Right now, I'm trying to set up a Telegram account so I can root my phone (US version) if I'm going to go through the trouble of wiping. Unfortunately, Telegram's SMS verification appears to be broken or at least doesn't like Mint Mobile... Fun day. :)
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] blackhawk:
You're welcome.

You really don't need to root.

Consider the possible consequences carefully.

Package Disabler will easily block apks you don't want running.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] darkfrog26:
Well, it would appear it's moot anyway since I'm at Baseband v4 and only v1 can be rooted apparently...
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] blackhawk:
This is the one I use:

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

It has an interactive widget that allows you to toggle selected entries on/off. It runs even in Safe mode so be careful what you disable. I've never had to do a factory reset because of it but the potential is there.

Unfortunately it no longer disables Google play Services but will disable all carrier bloatware including OTA updates.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] dr.ketan:
Then how come you have removed apk from system?

In case you have used command like

pm disable packageName . Then try pm enable packageName

Or

If you have used

pm hide packageName then try

pm unhide packageName

Why don't you just try to flash a ROM with Odin ?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] dr.ketan:
It won't work. That is useful if someone have root access and deleted apk from system. Here he have non rooted device and used adb command so, remedy will be

- Apply reverse command

OR

- Factory reset.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] dezborders:
Have you tried sideloading it via ADB? Maybe as it is a system app.

One alternative workaround that came to mind is to re-flash the same firmware via ODIN... maybe the missing app will be reinstalled?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] rtd4:
it is not necessary to flash again with wipe in recovery it is already
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] darkfrog26:
That looks like a neat tool, but I work almost exclusively in Linux.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] dezborders:
Glad you got sorted but my idea was flashing same firmware via Odin and you would not have had to wipe ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] tek3195:
In the future you may remember this rather than resetting or wiping anything. Flash firmware via Odin using HOME-CSC and discard CSC because it wipes everything. Here's something I just read as I'm downloading stock firmware to flash so I can send device in for warranty work tomorrow.

If your purpose is to just re-install the firmware or update your Samsung device’s software without wiping your apps, all user data, and settings, you should go with the HOME CSC binary. Choosing this file will only affect the software version of your phone while keeping everything intact.

Background information:

Oneplus 6 is rooted with magisk (but magisk hasn't been updated)

Able to charge and connect to pc as a Qualcomm modem

View attachment 5367027

View attachment 5367025

My Oneplus 6 phone randomly after charging went black and was stuck in a bootloop, after a while I was able to escape the bootloop. Shortly after the screen goes black and now I am prompted with "Battery is too low" screen. After trying many other things of trying to recover the phone, such as: Fully draining the battery then charging it again, charging it for over 24 hours, to "trickle" charging the phone. I wasn't able to bring the phone back.

I don't really know if it this is a battery coordination error or an actual battery error. My goal is to try to recover the phone with no data loss, I've been looking around other forms trying to see how to recover data using QFIL of writing the storage then writing it back to the phone. I have also purchased a 64gb Micro SD card in hope of being able to recover the data using TWRP which I do have on my phone, but I am not able to acess recovery mode, because I am stuck in the "battery too low" screen.

Any help is appreciated. My current last resort option would probably be trying to "unbrick" the phone using MSM downloader tool. My goal here is to try to reserve the data on my phone and be able to hopefully revive my phone, because I don't believe I am in a hard brick.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] elangtales:
I had a sucessful operation using MSM tool upgrading the os with "enchilada_22_J.50_210121.ops" but is still stuck in battery is too low.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Alex261099:
it may be a stupid solution but have you tried pressing the power button for a while?

another solution can be addressed in physically removing the battery for a while. You'll need the glue or the new adhesive tape at least
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] elangtales:
yes I have tried the first solution but I will try removing the battery, cause I was able to open my phone up

also do you mind linking me the page / link to where the person fixed it by removing the battery. I would like to try to follow his/her solution

[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Alex261099:
I don't know what to say...

You can try this last thing...

1.Remove the battery.

2. Unplug anything from the phone.

3.Using a paperclip or something made out of metal connect the positive and the negative battery connectors ON THE PHONE for a few seconds.

4. Reconnect battery.

5. Reconnect 1A 5V adapter.

DO NOT SHORT-CIRCUIT THE BATTERY! IT CATCHES FIRE AND EXPLODES!
