Ok I have had the GW1 46mm lte the GW3 in 41mm and 45mm both lte models and the GW4 in 42 mm and 46mm both lte

To ask the question on battery life you need to specify on lte models if lte is on ....off ...or on auto and

If you are in a low signal strength area ... if you are using remote connection to watch or are on 3g ...or 4g voicecalls

As a guide go onto 4g remote connection always on ....with bluetooth off ....wifi off....gps.off basically everything off apart from lte connection then go into a poor signal area from your provider you will not last 20mins before you overheat on a GW4 AND the battery drops by 20 percent ....hence do this a few times the battery is dead in 2 hours..?..or less

Do the sa e thing in a high signal strength area you can get over a days use and no overheating

But if you try just linking by bluetooth to your phone and turn every thing else off then same watch gets 2 and a bit days

Hence in answering the (how long does your bettery last question ?)

You need to say model of watch ....and what was turned on and what was off ..?and if lte model if it was on and in use and the signal strength during the test ...
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] evgeni.lalov:
Hi all,

I have also recently bought one - GW4 classic 46 mm LTE.

On the attached screenshot you can see how I am with the battery life - roughly 2 days. That's the maximum with the following settings:

LET - OFF - I haven't activated a mobile plan

GPS - OFF

Wifi - OFF

AOD -OFF

NFC - OFF

Brightness - around 40%,

Bedtime mode - scheduled from 00:00 to 07:30 + Power saving for the same period

All smart gestures (raise to wake, gestures for answering/dismissing calls and notifications, quick launch) - ON

Notifications with turning display on for Viber, Gmail, Slack(not always), Phone, Yahoo Mail, FB Messenger, Calendar, Clock, Phone Messages) - ON

Vibration - OFF

Samsung Health monitoring features - OFF (only steps counting )

I have several calls during the day, and a light to moderate number of notifications.

My battery lasts around 43/6 hours - almost two days.

What's your opinion, guys? Am I doing well in terms of battery life, or is my battery underperforming for its capabilities?

P.S. This is my 3d charge cycle.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] evgeni.lalov:
@Alfiedog, interesting point. Are you basically saying that my battery will last longer if I am on LTE with BT, Wifi and GPS off?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] konker:
Hi everyone!

I've a Cingular 8125 that has a unique situation.

The blue LED (bluetooth) keeps staying on no matter what I did.

So far, I've performed the following:

1. Multiple soft-resets

2. Multiple hard-resets

3. Reflashing the ROM

Despite all these efforts, the blue LED will stay on.

Sometimes, it does not come on immediately but after awhile, it will light up.

Does anyone know what it means?

The bluetooth is definitely turned off so it cannot be the bluetooth that's causing it.

Furthermore, it's lit up & does not blink at all.

The unit does not have any liquid damage at all.

Please advise me what can be done about it.

Thanks!

Is it possible to create a full image of android 10+?

It is very important to me that it really is a full image and not just some backup app form the playstore that saves your contacts and thats it.

I'd like to create an image of diffrent OSs and be able to freely flash them without lossing anything that was on my phone when the images where created. For example I want an unrooted version of Pixel experince with some apps on it, than I want an image of lineague OS with root access and maybe some more.
[General Questions and Answers] flairepathos.info:
So to be frank theres a lot that comes with doing that cause it varies on the device as well armv7, arm64 a or ab, arm8 and such download

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.andr7e.deviceinfohw&hl=en_ZA&gl=US

Take note of all the information screenshot maybe, to save time

To create a full imagebackup you need to look for the right back up and flashing software , like samsung's odin tools or mtk devices sp flash tools

just search your devices name full backup youtube (on google search when you need help I'll be here within 24 hours
[General Questions and Answers] Bomber293:
TWRP backups do seem to work fine, however they don't save internal storage... IIRC I had all my internal storage deleted often when I last played around with root and custom roms. Is this just not a thing anymore? Becuse for now I was able to keep my internal storage.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Internal storage can be included in your TWRP backup, you just have to choose the option to include it before doing the backup.
[General Questions and Answers] Bomber293:
Atleast in my version it can't. Maybe becuase it's pretty old.

Anyways is internal storage wipe still a thing when you root/install custom roms or similar? Or just once when you unlock bootloader and install a custom recovery?
[General Questions and Answers] Deleted member 1890170:
If phone is rooted then why not simply do a NANDroid backup?

Look inside here:

https://xdaforums.com/t/tools-zips-...ore-tools-multiple-devices-platforms.4016617/
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
As far as I know, it has always been an option in TWRP as far back as I can remember, certainly since 2011, over 10 years now. Maybe it just wasn't included by whoever built your version of TWRP.

Wiping internal storage is a matter of choice when flashing ROMs, flashing ROMs does not touch data/data partition(userspace). The factory reset option in custom recovery also does not wipe userspace.

When unlocking bootloader, internal storage is wiped by default because it is automatically a part of the unlocking process and cannot be avoided. If bootloader is already unlocked, wiping internal is not required in order to flash a custom recovery.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Here are instructions for backing up internal storage via TWRP, just in case you are overlooking something in TWRP.

https://xdaforums.com/t/twrp-backup-including-internal-storage.3660479/
[General Questions and Answers] flairepathos.info:
YOU cant backup internal storage if the partition is encypted, if you already have root just use helium backup + enough space to where you'll backup, but you'll need to root again to recover that backup

Then backup the other stuff you want to via twrp

And Using MTK flash tools if device is supported there is a way just google backup "phone name" mtk flash tools

[Android Head-Units] moa77:
Hi,

I got my new head unit the other day, this one;

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005003019883587.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.180c4c4dRzap6R

It;s a;

MTK 8259 8-core 2.0GHz

6G+128G

Overall it seem not too bad so far, not too long, sounds ok. But it has 2 major problems to me.

1. Landscape - Isn't

Although the unit has the screen in landscape mode, the unit appears to be coded to behave like portrait. So although all look fine initially, after using it a little you begin to realise it's not. For example most apps that are orientation aware reneder themselves different. Maps, Gmail, YouTube and YouTube music all have views split left/right; map on right, info on left; song of left, play list on right and so on. But the head unit does not do this, it tries to put the content top and bottom, like using a phone in portrait. On some apps, it just makes it horrible, like maps where when you view info the map is push to a skinny little band across the top. On some apps like YouTube Music, it breaks it. becuase you loose sight of the track list!! on a phone it would be under the song, but there is no space to do this on the head unit. This applies to all apps. It seems they have just not defined the mode to be landscape.

Is this just my unit, or is the a fault on others?

Can you via an app fix this? force it to be right. There is no settings for rotate or orientable in the units limited settings. I did try some apps, but they asked me to turn auto-rotate on in settings, but this doesn't exists.

Fixing this would be a big improvement. would move it from 1/5 to a 4/5.

2. WiFi.

This is broken. My unit has GPS and 4G and thus has antenna for each. I think that although the unit has Wifi it's actaully got no antenna for it internally, so signal is all but non existent. I can connect to my phone hotspot bc the phone is 2 feet away. but if i park my car on the drive, it will not connect to my router in the garage (which has great wifi coverage). I actually need to drive car into the garage and part car 1m away to get it too work at all.

Anyone else have this?

3. Firmware.

Is there other firmware for the version I have?

Thanks.
[Android Head-Units] flairepathos.info:
1. Enable developer options or search in setttings( "RTL" or"LTR" ...) and check if has rtl or ltr layout by default

LTR is the standard for some eastern and asian regions

2. Try hotspot from it and see how far it broadcasts wifi(if its small then manufacturer or seller cheaped ou ton the wifi chip or coded it very crappy)

3 Firmware try research, if you cant find anything in English repeat the search translated to chinese (modern) , you'll have better chances of finding something
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Minus-1:
I've disabled all of the auto-correct and suggestion SIP options on the TP and that works great, HOWEVER (heh, heh)...

Is there any way to turn off that annoying "what-you're-typing-preview" that always appears on-screen as you type? It is such a waste of screen real estate.

Do you know what I mean? I'll explain...

For example:

PREVIEW STYLE 1
1. Start a new text message.
2. Pop out your physical keyboard
3. Start typing!

You will see what you type appear in a little "preview window" at the bottom of your screen.

Now here's the REALLY annoying one...

PREVIEW STYLE 2
1. Open an existing SMS message (threaded view)
2. Pop out your physical keyboard
3. Start typing...

You will see the preview appear *above* your text this time. Even MORE annoying since it's taking up real estate in the typing area this time around.

I've been scrounging for a solution to this and really hope one exists.

Thanks for everything, guys!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Brendo:
press ctrl + space and choose abc
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Minus-1:
Thank-you VERY MUCH, Brendo!

I thought that I had already done this but I realize now that it was probably in my dreams.

(YES -- I dream about my TP -- don't lie -- YOU DO, TOO!!!).

Lol. :)

Take care.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] woppen:
Hi Guys, probably very silly of me, but 'choose abc'. Do we have a 'abc' button? I can't seem to find out what you mean with this. Also pressing cntrl + space and typing abc does nothing (obviously). Help me. I also find the typing preview window quite annoying, especially since I have been so happy to be able to turn the auto correct options off.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ardsar:
It can be found on the SIP - pop up keyboard, providing you have "full keyboard", phone keyboard etc selected and not the windows default keyboard. You will see a button marked ABC->T9. Make sure T9 is not selected.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] woppen:
Gee thnx ardsar, this was clear and worked. Indeed I had to change the layout of my pop up keyboard, as I hardly ever use it and had it in the default keyboard mode.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Vortala:
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU (yes, I'm shouting :D )

If there was anything that pissed me off on this phone, it was the goddamn useless preview!

Why do they expect that you're a retard, if you bought HTC phone? I thought these phones were for smart people:D
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] stevopativo:
That's kool that it will take the dialog away but while I'm in programs it still types the letters in the background and causes them to skip. Is there any way to disable the typing of keys in the background while still reading the keystrokes. Let's say I'm using PocketNES while I'm in the game it reads the hardware keyboard as typing letters when I'm not trying to type any message. I would just like to use the letters as buttons instead. Hopefully someone has found a solution to the problem!:confused:
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Dev Jaskirat:
Hi everyone!

I recently found that Amazon India is now selling the Snapdragon 888 variant of the S21 Ultra, planning to buy the same but I wanted to inqure here first if anyone has the snapdragon variant and has tried to change their CSC to INS? Also if all the services like VoLTE, WiFi calling work with the same or not?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] varcor:
There are only 3 CSC's which can be enabled on the SM-G9980. CHC China, BRI Taiwan and TGY Hong Kong. If the device you referenced has it's Primary CSC as CHC China some content and certain apps are restricted. The TGY Hong Kong Primary CSC is best suited for international users. It isn't a Multi-CSC Device so any changes require flashing different firmware. The post you highlighted is misleading, it states Tmobile is the carrier but Tmobile doesn't sell a Branded SM-G9980. I have the same device in the US and have VoLTE, Wi-Fi Calling and timely Updates. In India YMMV. If Call Features and 5G are a priority your Service Provider's device is the best option.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Dev Jaskirat:
Thanks for your reply!

You mentioned that you have the same model, which CSC are you on?

Yes, the Amazon Page says tmobile but it is an unlocked device that the seller is selling. In India we only get the exynos variant and this is the only Snapdragon variant that is available to us. The reviews say that Indian carriers are working fine my main concern is CSC related features like in-built call recording, does your device have that? I have it on my Note 20 (CSC = INS).

Also I'm curious when you say that it only supports those 3 CSC, does that mean it won't even change to INS if I tried? OR does it change but bricks the device or some other limitation happens (like Knox tripping)?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] varcor:
I'm on the TGY Hong Kong CSC, I wouldn't consider the CHC or BRI variants. Some users have reported the TGY and BRI have identical software but I'm not sure that's correct. The SM-G9980 TGY CSC is available on ebay or online from a number of retailers in Hong Kong, I purchased mine online from Hong Kong since most on ebay don't offer the 512GB option. The device doesn't offer native call recording however a number of apps can enable this function. At this time it's impossible to flash any Exynos Global Firmware on any Snapdragon variants and that's not likely to change going forward. You can't make a general rule that this or that feature will work in India, all service providers aren't using identical metrics. If your concern is maximizing call features acquiring your service provider's device is the best bet.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Dev Jaskirat:
Thanks again for your help! Just one last thing, does your device support VoLTE and WiFi calling?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] varcor:
Yes, as I mentioned previously.

oh man ive broken my head on this, bottom line, now warranty ! and no repair in india as far as i know! they wont have the parts and if anything happens, expect delays of 1+month for repair!

also, do you really think its a good idea to purchase this off of amazon? its freaking one lakh rupees man ! i said eff it and bought the exynos from local samsung store ! sure its exynos, still amazing for what it offers!

id suggest asking a friend whos in the USA to buy it for you and get it while coming down to india! thats the only safe way my friend

Did you ever get it to move to a different country firmware?

I have the same device, and the lack of timely updates and the control of carriers of what get released and what not is scare to say the least.. especially when u are holding a hongkong/china variant..

Let us know if u figured any way out or experimented with it..
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] kamirza:
My advice. Get your local version. Exynos this year wasn't bad. I got this 9980 for 16/512gb SD and am desperate to get other regions updates but so far haven't found a satisfactory way to do that. Either you figure that out or get the local version. That way your local carriers will be in charge not other country's.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] varcor:
Samsung has paused Android 12 Updates on the SM-G9980 at least until sometime this month. So far they’ve released 3 updates of Android 12 for the S21 and it still isn't stable. I'm not in any rush to receive A12, will wait a few weeks after it's available and see if they've finally fixed all the bugs. It's not so much Samsung's fault, blame Google, it causing problems on many different brands.
