[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
I like keeping it installed. It's a battery hog but is applicable to every phone where it's installed. Since it's been like this for the last 100 million years, I actually like those phones that have great stamina having it installed. 22U fails here.

I can see you're not using chrome, FB etc. If you do, you will lose some good screen time.

"Suspend execution.... " has been ON for a long time now. (it helps reducing standby drain a bit, nothing else).

Cache erased & apps repaired always post OTA/Full flash.

After VF9, first run was okayish(some 6 and half hr screen it was), and the 2nd run was poor. I'm at 3rd run and it isn't looking good either so far.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wolfaas12345:
generally coming from s21 ultra (exynos) to s22 ultra (exynos) was a biggest waste of my money phone works slower heats more games lag thanks to RADeon graphics battery life is s**t only redeeming qualities are camera and i dig the design but otherwise what a waste samsung really did drop the ball with exynos 2200
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
Exynos 2100 was so called an inferior chip, but it surprisingly turned out to be a "good" SoC over time.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wolfaas12345:
Main thing that shot 2200 in the leg is the gpu its clocked way to low so it doesnt perform even remotely as well as gpu in 2100
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] pratik_193:
Try facebook wrapper apps. Same functionality + no ads + way less battery consumption
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
FB is a menace. It will never be loaded on my phones as well as any social media app. You can use it logged through the browser. Massages can be sent by going into desktop mode. It tones this parasite down a lot...
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
The problem with the S22U snap is reported to be just the opposite. The gpu sucks power in spite of the 5nm form factor; it appears to be optimized for gaming. Unfortunately when doing more mundane typical tasks it's still sucking the juice.

This may be a chipset hardware issue that firmware can't correct. Samsung's "solution" of throttling it only added gasoline to the fire with users. Not a good sign...

On other makes people are avoiding this chipset and overclocking the older 7nm chipset to get better results. If true... it's discouraging.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wolfaas12345:
Problem with exynos is that gpu guzzles battery and performs slowly basically worst of both worlds
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
So it's happening on both chipsets? What was Samsung thinking when they engineered exynos?

Samsung dropped the Note moniker, spit on its loyal power users by dropping expandable storage in a bid to appeal to a "wider market". So they created a niche market gaming phone instead?

Brilliant🤣
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wolfaas12345:
Exynos must go either match it or remove it its that simple samsung eu samsung users shouldnt suffer this s**t
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
Guess see how the dust settles. Both chipsets seem to have issues... grand slam Sammy🤣
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
With a first gen Sammy - Amd collab, it was very much expected. I would have been shocked if it performed really well with their first attempt.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wolfaas12345:
Well why defok are we the beta testers for samsung MAKE A CPU THAT WORKS TEST IT MAKE SURE ITS SMOOTH ETC AND THEN RELEASE IT WHY DO COMPANIES DO THIS i understand when its new form factor but this is just stupid
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
Most consumers are not tech savvy + people fall for the makers' ads and marketing.

All I can say is after release wait for several weeks if not months, wait for reviews that come late (not to instantly fall for those reviews that get bombarded once embargo lifted) and then a make a buying decision. Atleast this should be considered in regions where these phones can't be returned for a refund.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wolfaas12345:
I mean i saw reviews and i was like surely it cant be that bad

OH BOY HOW BAD IT WAS

so i yeeted the phone back at samsung for a refund
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
👍.

Wish all countries had similar consumer protection policies. Atleast Exynos units of the past and present the size of a continent would have been back to Samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wolfaas12345:
in uk at least if crap is bought over the internet (main reason why i dont go shops for tech) u get 14 days to return it without a reason
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
Indeed. These corporations count on you being gullible and misinformed. They deliberately disseminate disinformation, many times by proxy ie compensated reviewers. All those glowing bs reviews on just the Fold series alone, then the truth comes out, too little, too late. Wait at least a few months... and look at what individual users are experiencing!

I don't think it's any exaggeration when I say Samsung has been screwing up bad since the N10+ on their flagships. Samsung has excuses for everything but that's bs too. I just got lucky when I bought the newly released N10+, the N9 is noticeably slower, the N20U has glaring form factor and SOT issues. The flagships that followed the N20U are pale ghosts of what could have been. Expensive as hell and not near as well balanced as the N10+. Doesn't look like Samsung will get their feet back on the ground anytime soon.

Samsung's flagship evolution for the last 3 years; the beast>the lefty hump back>the Note with no name>the evil left hand universe thermal Monster.

Bumping..

In about a week the poll will be closed. Thanks for participating.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] jericho246:
Sold the S21U and received my S22U a couple days ago. So far the battery life is similar, but the phone gets significantly warmer than the S21U which annoys me. The weather has been hellish though, so I guess it's normal that the phone gets warm so quick.

forgot to mention, I have the Exynos variant.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
Once you start going over 500mAh average and approaching 1Ah your temperature goes through the roof on a hot day, fast. The risk of a thermal runaway is real.

350mAh* is generally sustainable** in 98F ambient.

500mAh should have breaks every 20-30 minutes and so on. If the ambient temperature isn't too high a break from streaming a vid might be using the browser for 20 minutes if the current drain is low enough.

On the N10+ operating temperature is normally 4.5-5F above ambient for the battery. Streaming bumps it up at least 2°. Heat output is nearly directly proportional to current consumption.

For fast charging above 90F ambient you will need cooling. Fast charging will disengage around 102F battery temperature. Charging in direct sunlight can TKO the device, don't.

*average

**what the device will tolerate. A battery temperature of 102-103F isn't ideal but doable.

At 105F it's best to turn off the screen to cool.

At 107F battery temperature you're nearing auto thermal shutdown temperature, turn off, power off if necessary. Avoid auto thermal shutdowns as much as possible... they generally work most times🤣

Best to avoid above an 85% charge especially if you know it will be running hot to help preserve battery longevity and save charging time.

[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] krishnandb:
For those of you who are having poor battery life, I have the following two recommendations that improved my standby and efficiency incredibly;

1. There's a setting in Developers options called "Suspend execution for cached apps". Please enable that! It shuts off all nonsense services running in the background 😅 It's a game changer for me. My standby drain improved 6% over ight to 2% overnight) and overall efficiency improved too.

2. Put all rarely used apps to Deep sleep or just sleep.

NOTE: After enabling the cached execution suspend, make sure you put all apps you want notifications from, to Never sleeping since this setting strictly disables execution for background apps.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
Interesting.

Does this invoke the use of buckets in standby apps or does it run separately from that?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] krishnandb:
I still have Adaptive battery ON which uses the buckets. From what I've understood, suspension of cached execution doesn't use buckets and as the name implies, suspends every cached process after a while. But, I still am getting notifications and all. So, this somehow seems to work with battery app sleep configuration.

But the battery life after enabling this setting has been outstanding to say the least. I'm extremely glad I ran into this setting 😅
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
On my N10+/Pie and Q Global power management causes erratic behavior and didn't help with excessive battery drain. I use other work arounds now instead.
[OnePlus Nord N10 5G Questions & Answers] AVAndronov:
I have a rooted (magisk 24.3) Nord N10 5G, I have enabled zygota and installed the safetynet fix from github.

Using "yet another safetynet checker" app, my phone went from fail to pass in both SafetyNet checks.

I've also installed Snapchat and verified that it works (supposedly it shouldn't if you don't pass safetynet?).

However, Google Pay says "Phone does not meet security requirements"

So... is there any way to make it work?
[OnePlus Nord N10 5G Questions & Answers] JazzieBoi:
Make sure you have Magisk Props Config, Universal Safetynet fix, and if those don't work try Shamiko https://t.me/magiskalpha

Download the latest Release.zip from telegram and install through Magisk. Then you'll have to enable the Denylist in the settings and then select Google Pay app and all your Google services and apps etc. Afterwards untick the "enforce denylist" since Shamiko will enforce your denylist now. Shamiko uses the Magisk list I believe but you must have it disabled after you're done selecting your apps like I said above.
[OnePlus Nord N10 5G Questions & Answers] AVAndronov:
Thank you.

For some reason, it did not occur to me that I should Denylist the Google apps. After I've added GPay to the list, it now passes all security checks., and I don't need any props config or Shamiko, just the Safetynet fix is enough!
[OnePlus Nord N10 5G Questions & Answers] JazzieBoi:
Okay I'm pleased to hear you've fixed it. ;) Essentially, you'd only need Shamiko if you're having problems with certain apps like bank apps and things of that nature. Glad you can use GPay now. Enjoy your phone. :D
[OnePlus Nord N10 5G Questions & Answers] TheArkive:
Is anyone one else having any issues getting GPay to work on the latest 11.0.10 security patch by chance?

I think I may have just done something out of order. I have 2 Nord N10 5Gs, one is on 11.0.0 and working fine, and I'm trying to setup the other one on 11.0.10 ... and I'm currently having issues.

I actually am able to get safetynet to pass the checks fine, but sometimes GPay seems to still insist that the "Phone does not meet security requirements". I even have zygisk enabled and GPay and services blocked.

One thing though, Google Play Services never stays checked in the Deny List for me. Does anyone else experience this too?

In general, it seems that with the latest security patch, i have to freeze the Magisk app otherwise several apps seem to detect it now, even with zygisk, hide, and renaming the magisk app package.

EDIT: The answer was too simple. MagiskHidePropsConfig, and spoof a valid device profile.

[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] sagiag:
Hi guys

I consider to buy the s22 ultra but since I want to root the device I wonder if it will disable my OTA updates and triggered Knox.

My main concern is that I will not be able to sell it in the future in to someone else since many Samsung services will disabled and also OTA updates.

Not sure if it's relevant but In my country we have the SD gen 1 model
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] hand-filer:
Yes it will trigger Knox and no more OTA update, no warranty, no more Samsung Pass etc. and resale value will be greatly diminished.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] sagiag:
Damm

I hate Samsung for that
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] RedCriwx:
Afaik, after OEM unlock and rooting, if you re-lock the bootloader, flash original (properly signed) rom and disable OEM Unlock, you will have OTA without problems. Tested with my unit SM908B and Tab S7+.

Warranty is a bit more complex, because it depends on the local laws. In most European countries, opening an equipment or unlocking a bootloader does not directly void your warranty, as the manufacturer has to prove it was your manipulation what caused the issue. But this varies from country to country.

It is true though that Knox will be triggered irreversibly any Knox based software will fail to authenticate the device (For example, Samsung Pay, and most MDM corporate software uses knox) so you will be permanently unable to use them.

[Nubia Red Magic 7] superrama:
Nubia hides the default apps deep inside settings. I even saw multiple reviewers saying it couldn't be done.

1. Download your 3rd party app/launcher

2. Settings>Applications>App Info>Tap on the three dots on the top right>Tap Default App Settings>Desktop (on the top)>select the launcher on the top.

I can finally get nova7 running as default

[Nubia Red Magic 7] italodance:
Can you set nova launcher without any issue and does it run?
[Nubia Red Magic 7] superrama:
I have the North American version and its running v3.08
[Nubia Red Magic 7] superrama:

[Nubia Red Magic 7] italodance:
There is no bug? I heard Nova had some problems in Red Magic OS 4 before:

https://xdaforums.com/t/need-to-know-these-before-purchasing-a-redmagic-phone.4405591/

So did it fix in OS 5? I want to buy this phone but not sure about its OS 5 yet.
[Nubia Red Magic 7] superrama:
OS 5 has a ton of bugs, the reviewer all complained about the bugs but I've had Chinese phones before so I thought I would be ok with a few bugs/spelling errors. But Its kind of ridiculous some of the bugs I've seen in the week of ownership. It took me half a day to even setup my Google acct(In redmagic's defense, it did seem like google was having purchasing issues that day with people reporting multiple purchases and failed downloads but, I could even login in. It would refuse to connect to google servers at all and I had factory reset a few time so I don't know it was google fault or Red Magic but I didn't see any complaints about login in, just purchases when searched)

There are a ton of spelling errors, words outside of boundary boxes so you cant even read what its trying to say, nonsense names/translations for settings. Phone has the weakest vibrate for notification and calls that I often miss them and if you go to settings called "vibrations and haptic strength" there is no configuration for strength, only on or off. If you select show full notifications on lockscreen they are still hidden/collapsed If you get more than one so I have to swipe open to read the notification making it pointless. I can set the clock on lockscreen to 12hr but AOD is 24hr and there is no way to change that so far. AOD also showed no notifications so whats the point. I turned off AOD The flashlight is a joke and is dim as hell.

This does happen if you don't do the steps I mentioned in the original post.
[Nubia Red Magic 7] Jdiongon777:
Is there anyway that you can upload your OS in here?
[Nubia Red Magic 7] nadejo:
Ok guys i didn't know this was a thing and gave up using 3rd party launchers. But oh boy it's really working after doing that default app setting stuff and the latest update.

i recently got an update on my red magic 5 (still android 11) and yeah now i can use nova launcher even with the nubia gestures beeing the navigation method. and even after leaving gamemode and killing all tasks in recents i still get Nova launcher.

so yeah I'll probably go with the upcoming redmagic 7 pro. being able to change the launcher is the game changer for me.

only thing I've noticed you have to slide slightly higher to open recents using the gestures otherwise it will act like the home button
[Nubia Red Magic 7] bANONYMOUS:
I literally got rid of my Redmagic 5G because of this and right after I sold it, they released another update and tons of people were reporting using Nova hidden in settings. I'm glad it's still hidden on the newer OS.

Question though, do you think that even after it's set to the default, and going back from apps and such will restore the default launcher. If you uninstall the default launcher using ADB. Think that would stop it from restoring back or just break the entire OS?

Cause if it can't restore back, cause it doesn't exist anymore.. It "should" default to the only other launcher on the phone. Unless Nubia specifically designed the OS to have their launcher embedded as the safe mode default, rather than the system selected default.
[OnePlus Nord N10 5G Questions & Answers] AVAndronov:
For example, Pokemon Go and Ingress Prime show in Play Store as not available for my Nord N10 5G, yet I see reports of people talking about the games, mentioning update problems, and mentioning they have those on Nord N10.

What could be going on?
[OnePlus Nord N10 5G Questions & Answers] SomeRandomGuy:
I'm not sure I can answer your question, but I can possibly help another way.

First, lemme try: Note that *IF* Google decides you are an icky-free-thinker-scum trying to escape from its grasp, it will silently blacklist you in subtle ways. The Netflix app is a great example; on one phone (I think it was the N10 but may have been my last one, a OnePlus 6) it worked normally through Play store, then I flashed and tried reinstalling (Netflix, via Play store) and was surprised it listed my phone as "not compatible". After finishing all the tweaks to get the SafetyNet blessing, I was once again able to get it to work... but I think it may have been a reflash after (changed Google Ad ID? ).

So... on my current phone, which is completely de-googled, I've gone to sideloading everything (painful, but that's my choice). For anything that is free, I use: APK Downloader to get the >APK or its splits (yuck). If it is not free, I install on some other phone with a normal Play store and swipe the APK via ADB. I *THINK* you can do this (get the APKs) without root.

I'm assuming, based on your other posts recently, that you have root and most of the tweaks, so I think ADB is your friend here. In my NF example above, the app itself runs just fine after sideloading (and putting in MagiskHide+Zygisk).

Hope that helps.
[OnePlus Nord N10 5G Questions & Answers] AVAndronov:
So, it's like, google noticed I've rooted my phone, and blocked me from apps that require unrooted phones? Strange, I can still install MIR Pay (russia's Google Pay alternative) just fine... I guess it's only for apps that enabled this feature (ban users with rooted phones)?
[OnePlus Nord N10 5G Questions & Answers] SomeRandomGuy:
I'm not entirely sure, but for me, it wasn't my account, just the phone profile. I could still install NF on other devices, and am still running it to this day happily (via sideload). My guess is it is safetynet (even if you pass now) vs root, but who knows, it is a continuous war.
[OnePlus Nord N10 5G Questions & Answers] AVAndronov:
I guess after you let Play Store find out you have root, it marks your device as "incompatible" for some applications. I wonder why it doesnt for others? Like, many apps won't work under root, but they don't become "incompatible", while this case, Ingress and Pokemon Go, they do.
