Hello everyone. First of all, let me congratulate all of you who have made this incredible site. I've been reading your threads for 3 weeks and finally i wanted to make my first post. I didnt wanted to be a stupid post so thats why it took me 3 weeks to make it.

I got my first Hermes 5 days ago (yes i searched for info about hermes 2 weeks before i got it) and it is everything i always wanted/needed.

I live in a city called Temuco in Chile (A southamerican country :-)) and this toys are very expensive even if its a 2 or 3 years old toy like hermes).

When i received my Hermes i was ready to flash roms and got everything to do it, thanks to you guys),

I'm very pleased with some of your roms and now im using [OPTIMIZED Manilla2d][20755 09/29](AlmostNak3d)(V8) by joshkoss.

The only subject that worried me was.................... Battery life, so i did some searching and thats my first post about. Hope you guys find it usefull. I know there are some battery related posts around but wanted to make some conclusions about the subject.

Here we go.

I've been searching and reading different articles about optimizing a li-ion and li-ion polymer battery, as they basically behave the same way.

In recent days i've been thinking a way to keep my battery life longer.

What i first thought, and without any knowledge, is what i've heard all my life: "A fast charged" battery lasts shorter than a "slow charge" battery.

In some battery chargers there are two ways to charge batteries. Slow and fast. And i always feel that slow charge was better than fast, so i thought.

My Hermes charger is 5V 1A.

If i charge my hermes through USB (Which i think has less than 1A) my battery should be "better charged" and the charge should last longer.

I never quite tested this but as a normal "battery user" it sounded more logical to me.

So i searched on google if there was any information about li-ion batteries and its characteristics.

I went to www.batteryuniversity.com and what i read astonished me.

Battery Conclusions

1.- Lithium batteries are completely different than older nickel based batteries.

2.- Lithium is a very unstable element and behaves abnormally when overcharging and overdischarging.

3.- According to batteryuniversity, "Overcharging makes the cell causes plating of metallic lithium on the anode; the cathode material becomes an oxidizing agent, loses stability and releases oxygen. Overcharging causes the cell to heat up. If left unattended, the cell could vent with flame."

4.- Over-discharging is as dangerous as overcharging. According to batteryuniversity, if discharged, "Copper shunts may have formed inside the cells, leading a partial or total electrical short. The cell becomes unstable. Charging such a battery would cause excessive heat and safety could not be assured."

5.- Lithium batteries are usually overcharge and over-discharge protected.

6.- You shouldnt use chargers different than the manufacturer's one.

7.- End of story and End ob battery thoughts.

I (we) just have to live with that.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Graeme:
The Li-on cells for my Makita tools are charged on a computer controlled charger. It reads temp and level of charge and charges accordingly. Manufacturers estimate 3000 charges before the battery is dead, and this after fast heavy discharge that can make a battery too hot to hold and fast charge that takes 22 minute on a 3ah batttery from fully flat to fully charged.

The people who use Li-on at the edge of their accepted use, the radio control flyers, use computer controlled chargers that read the same parameters and more. Many of their chargers read individual cells and balance the charge. Again, after use, the batteries can be too hot to hold.

In a phone or a laptop we use a wall wart the same as any old nicad. I dont know if any clever stuff goes on inside the laptop or phone to regulate charge level according to battery condition but I don't think so. We get about a year out of a laptop that is trickle charged. I'm on almost 2 years for my Tytn with no discernable drop in life but I think I've been lucky, it seems to be about a year for many people. So that's 365 charges, approx.

My guess is that it's charger technology rather than battery technology that limits our battery life.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ultramag69:
The Hermes does have a battery sensor. It can be screwed up though when you go below a certain level (<10%), hence people who have trouble recharging a TOTALLY flat battery. The Hermes sensor doesn't detect a battery giving a red LED.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] adityakw:
I don't know anything about battery...

I'm currently have a problem with a battery or power-related. My X01HT have just 1 day life in use. I was try it with different second-hand battery, but it likes first condition when only life in 1 day. Hmm.. may be which is the wrong? The battery or the phone?

I have 2 set of X01HT, next time I will try to exchange the battery from both of it. I want to test their battery life to compare and make conclusion about which is the wrong between the battery or the phone.

My tested phone have radio version 1.14.01.10 and have unlocked with NextGenServer. I am using the newest Pays ROM Full. IPL: 1.04. SSPL: 2.60 (Olipro). I have experienced using Pays ROM in twice, first which already sold and the second is this case. Both of the have the same radio version. I think the first one is okay about the life stability, but this one have a problem. May be ROM have influenced the battery life? Or may be IPL/SSPL have caused instability too?

Sorry guys, about poor in English. May be I need to make a thread to share my problem with you.

Thanks.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ultramag69:
Hermes are battery hogs but some programs can be power leeches too.

If the radio rom isn't good for your area it also can be a power drain as it is constantly scanning for connection.

I tend to find about 2 days is all my battery lasts for with a little bit of use. Depends what you are using....

Cheers...:D
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] adityakw:
I have 3 pieces of SoftBank X01HT.

One of them just fine in the life of the battery, so network here is fine too (maybe). But this one is already sold, so I can't test the battery to my another X01HT which have a critical power problem.

Another X01HT so sleepy, the life of the battery just 1 day. I was try to replace the battery with another battery (2ndhand and I don't know the condition actually) but it have no change, just 1 day too, may be less... Now I try the third battery. I'll reported soon about this...

So how about your opinion about critical power in the X01HT? May be there is another factor beside the battery? Beside the program/OS? May be some physically probelm with their board or etc?

Sorry about poor in English.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ultramag69:
I can't say much about the X01HT... All Hermes internals should be the same, but they may put extra things in or take things out depending where you buy your Hermes.

So saying, the Hermes, if not all HTC phones, seem to use a large amount of power. If you use apps it will of course discharge faster.

Sometimes it can be as simple as changing the radio rom but this is risky as the radio rom tends to be permanent brick if something goes wrong with the flash.

Maybe an app you have running and don't realise, I had a BT program that did this, had to shut it down or my battery was down to 70%in about an hour or 2.

Cheers...:D

Hey guys!

For a couple of weeks I've been observing that my rooted Redmi Note 9 with Pixel Extended ROM was draining its battery real fast. I took a look at data usage and I discovered that every day a "System updates" app was using around 1GB.

According to AccuBattery app my phone was barely entering deep sleep state, so that explained the high battery drain.

Then I installed AFWall+ firewall and enabled communications only for my trusted apps. I think I trusted "Google Play Services" but if I enable its communications, the high data usage begins. Right now I have Google Play Services disabled in the firewall, so I block the virus but I cannot sync either.

In the root filesystem, I've discovered a folder in /data/system_ce/0 that contains folders like "people", "recent_images", "recent_tasks", "snapshots"... Within "People" folder there are folders for the main IM apps like "com.whatsapp", "org.telegram.messenger.web", etc.

My intention is to discover the virus binary file. How could I know which process is writing to that folders?

Thank you guys!

It would be great with a little app you could use with Opera 9.5 or Pocket IE to use the touch sensitive scroll wheel to scroll up/down in pages.

I know it's used for zooming in Opera but with a little "switch" (option) you could enable it to scroll up/down instead.

Would be awesome to use for fine scrolling pages.

Hi,

I've wanted to share my experience in testing the custom ROMs for Oneplus 8 PRO in search of unofficial 11.0 rom that would work flawlessly with VoLTE and WifiCalling. In my case a use of Wifi-calling is a must, due to low coverage in some areas and in buildings where Wifi is the only option.

Stock OXYGEN works fine with VoLTE, VoWifi, DSS, Videocalling.

I wiped the phone, unlocked bootloader and flashed several popular custom roms.

In all of them, I had all the Volte, Wificalling, Videocalling, DSS switches enabled when checked with *#*#4636#*

CUSTOM ROM	5G	VOLTE	WIFICALLING (VoWifi)	Access via PDC tool	Oxygen camera apk	Comments
Lineage OS 18.1	works fine	not working	not working	yes, no effect after changes	not working	Clean AOSP
Evolution X 5.9.2	works fine	working	working partially	yes	not working	Wificalling worked for a while after reboot, then it was shut down
Havoc-OS 4.2	works fine	working	not working	yes, no effect after changes with VoWifi	it's working fine when installed via apk	If VoWifi worked, this would be my choice
Pixel Experience 11.0	works fine	not working	not working	no access to PDC	not working	not good as daily driver

Tested with POLAND PLAY and T-MOBILE carriers only.

I did not intend to root my phone.

None of the ROMS fit my needs, so I needed to revert to stock ;/

I hope, anyone find it useful when looking for custom rom since it took good couple of hours for checks.

Hello everybody.

I wanted to unlock an BTV-DL09 [ Android 7 EMUI 5.04 EU ], but I'm stuck like the_wing was.

Modem no found !

I have installed Hisuite and Huawei data card driver.

Impossible to activate Device File Manager (MTP) and manufacturer mode, one deactivates the other, I do not know if this is the problem, but according to the tutorials it is a must.

I have a hard time understanding where the problem comes from, I even tested different USB cable, Win 7 and Win 10, I really did everything, but I'm dried. :cry:

I finally managed to unlock the bootloader, DC unlocker did not show me information from the tablet, but despite this, I could go to the next step and proceed with the unlocking, it is because of a msie security update according to Valdemaras on cd-unlocker forum, thanks to him.

Look how big the punch hole is.

Maybe they used a different camera module in front?

Kinda inferior to the original one with smaller punch hole.

Are you sure it's not a dark circle around it? When I unlock the phone, for a few seconds I have your same situation. Afterwards it's regular. Perhaps a software error?

[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] DodgeTransmissionsGoBoom:
I got totally scammed today on Facebook marketplace I hate used phones so much there's so many ******* ways to get scammed easily. It functions like a regular s21 but if I put a Sim into it nothing happens and the imei is all zeros. Also no demo menus pop up on the screen ever like normal display models. I finally looked at the phone alot closer and saw in super tiny print it was a demo model... I'm a total idiot for just not walking away when neither of us had a Sim card eject tool and he didn't care whether I bought it or not. Can I root this thing and make it usable or enter some special codes or flash something onto it or am I just stuck with a $550 wifi camera. I knew that price had to be to good to be true...
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] OnnoJ:
I am sorry for you. Demo model can not be transformed in a usable phone.

Demo models are not to be sold, so probably it was stolen.

Suggest to demand refund and return it to seller.

To the best of my knowledge, there's no way to get it functional as a normal phone. Best to sell it for parts at some independent repair shop.

AFAIK Samsung now removes the antenna and all modem functionality from demo phones to reduce theft, so there is no way to make it functional.

I hope you guys can help me with this one,

I followed the guide on Magisk website: https://magiskupdate.com/root-samsung-galaxy-a11/

Everything went well up until the final step which is titled: "Re-installing the Magisk App". This is right after I've flashed the patched boot image which was successful, I then proceeded to reboot the phone into recovery mode to reset to factory default and now I get the Samsung logo when I boot the phone, I get the alert that I'm not running official software and then it just loops through the boot sequence again and again.

I tried flashing the boot image again and again but without success.

Did I brick it? Can it be salvaged?

Thanks!
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
You haven't unlocked your bootloader, that is why you are getting the alert that says you are not using official software. You have to unlock your bootloader before you can successfully flash a Magisk patched boot.img, it doesn't work on devices that have a locked bootloader.

As stated by the member that posted above me, flash your stock firmware to fix what you have corrupted. Then start over by finding a way to unlock your bootloader, once unlocked, you can try flashing the patched boot.img again. If you cannot find a way to unlock the bootloader, you will not be able to successfully flash and boot the patched boot.img.

I don't know about you guys but I hardly ever reboot...
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] foobar66:
If the mod is enabled, then the toggle buttons also change color (in my case)? Is that intended behavior (I may have side effects with other mods). thanks

I have a script (in my personal magisk module) to enable at boot time, but the strange thing is that I first need to disable, then enable:

# cmd overlay disable com.android.shell:com.strangerweather.rootlessuimods.android.accent1_100
# cmd overlay enable com.android.shell:com.strangerweather.rootlessuimods.android.accent1_100

This way, it 'sticks' for me after reboot.
