I had the OnePlus 9 too, and did not know it had no OIS. When I found out because the photos sucked I was not amused. That's an example how BBK ruined OnePlus - they did not give the 9 OIS just to upsell the 9 Pro ... what a **** move.

Then I got the Pixel 6 selling the OnePlus 9 and the Pixel 6 was horrible for me. 2x RMA, freeze bug, battery life & charging, strange display, fingerprint reader ... it was such a letdown. I bought a Realme GT2 Pro then, and it was OK. good device but big and the camera was good but not great.

I thought maybe Google had fixed their stuff, bought the Pixel 7 now and again there are problems. Touch input problems, very slow charging (it's really a sad joke), heavy device, no 32bit apps, fingerprint with glass protector sucks again often, and compared to my Pixel 2 XL the camera got more features but sometimes just does too much, the photos look strange and not natural.
[Google Pixel 7] FunktasticLucky:
I'll add my experience. I had my Pixel 7 for over a week before I sent my PIxel 5 back. Standby time is WAY worse. My pixel 5 was hitting about .5 percent per hour on standby. My pixel 7 seems to drain the battery the same whether the screen is off or on for some reason. I did not restore from my back up. I started fresh only restoring my texts and calls from a backup with SMS backup.

Screen on time at my house on wifi is pretty great. I definitely get less drain while browsing in my house. Outside though is a completely different story. The phone drains way faster than my Pixel 5 when out and about. I guess Google has some work to do on their Tensor chip compared to Qualcomm when it comes to LTE and 5G radios and they need to better optimize the OS for standby.

Overall though it's a much better phone than my Pixel 5. The camera is much snappier and it's more responsive and damn is the screen way brighter. I can actually see it in daylight LOL.
[Google Pixel 7] t-ryder:
Maybe give us feedback if it got better with yesterday's update...
[Google Pixel 7] mj23kb24:
I've pretty much had the same experience. I decided to finally download accubattery to confirm I am not crazy about standby time. Sure enough, yesterday my phone was unplugged for 12 hours total and over those 12 hours, I lost 26% to standby time.

Out of that 12 hours, 6 hours and 33 minutes was spent in standby (contributing to 26% battery loss).

I was able to achieve 5 hours and 55 minutes of SOT.

Overall, I am pretty disappointed with the battery life. I might be a little jaded as I am coming from a 14 pro max which is almost impossible to kill in a day. But I was hoping to get 8-9 hour SOT. Just downloaded the latest security patch update which has some slight battery optimizations but I am not optimistic at all unless I can get that standby time down to 10ish%.
[Google Pixel 7] Finneri:
Here the experience is quite different. Getting about 8-10h SOT on full charge (100->0%) and overnight it drops like 3-5% during 8h period. No 5G but on LTE network. Great phone for my usage, which is pretty light.
[Google Pixel 7] TravisH997:
Idle use is what I'm mostly interested in, as well.

I currently have a 5a running GrapheneOS, I've been disappointed with it's battery life after having a Moto G7 Power, and I'm worried about potentially moving to something even worse...

The Moto G7 Power averaged 0.5% drain per hour for a whopping 200hrs standby.

The 5a is anywhere from 1.2-1.7% per hour, probably most often 1.5%, which is 66.6hrs standby.

I've become more accustomed to the 5a battery life over the past year, but it's still annoying having to watch my battery whereas before I only had to think about plugging my phone in literally every 2-3 days...

P.S. I recommend EX Kernel Manager for tracking battery life. Lots of it's functionality is broken without root (no root on GOS), but the %/hr drain tracking still works and shows in a notification dropdown so you can easily keep tabs on battery drain.
[Google Pixel 7] bobbyphoenix:
After yesterday's update (I'm on the beta) my standby has gone up significantly. After 20 hours off the charger, and over 5 hours screen on time, it just now dipped below 50%. It was dropping below 40% on the last beta with the same use and standby.
[Google Pixel 7] SonnyKrockett:
Using battery guru, here are from day one.
[Google Pixel 7] nowy57:
for sure to me it is better then S22 ultra (pixel 7 pro)
[Google Pixel 7] FunktasticLucky:
I don't keep my screen super bright so my screen on battery drain is pretty decent. At least if I'm in my house on wifi or in town with full signal strength. But my screen off averages around the 1.7-2/hr.

I did test it one night to see how it would do if it went into deep sleep. It dropped to about 0.7/hr. Lost 5 percent in 7 hours. I have come to terms that the phone is going to drain the battery when idle if you are constantly turning the screen back on and not letting it go into deep sleep.
[Google Pixel 7] bobbyphoenix:
Just a quick update . Since the December update, standby has been perfect for me. I am now on the regular release schedule, and not beta.

Hi, I have samsung b312, I try to copy contacts from android via bluetooth it only shars on contact

how can i solve that?
[General Questions and Answers] ze7zez:
Copy contacts to SIM card, put SIM card in another phone, copy contacts from SIM to phone.
[General Questions and Answers] TNSMANI:
If your Samsung has backed up your contacts, simply adding that backup account in the older phone will bring all the contacts. If the older phone is not a smartphone, then the method outlined in the above post can be used.

[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Lingshan:
Hello everyone

I have a theory that what actually causing the black crush/ green tint issue on some of the poco f3 units is DDIC.

Could someone with two poco f3 one with and one without these issues investigate this theory by swapping the mainboard between the two phones and report back here ?

I think for cost and other issues Xiaomi is using DDIC from different sources and one has these issues with it.

I recently swapped the T-con board on my sony tv and now i have black crush issue which wasn't a problem with the original board and since the DDIC is basically acting like T-con board in TVs, I think the problem is caused by it.
[Samsung Galaxy S22] Henckel15:
Hello Everyone I've been strongly considering upgrading to the s22 or waiting until march for the s23 to come out for a longer lasting battery and being faster to go through emails, social media and such. Should I wait until the s23 comes out or trade in my old s8 to upgrade to the s22. (I assume I still keep the same number but idk).
[Samsung Galaxy S22] Stephanizgo:
I would strongly recommend waiting because you would get a year more of updates, and also you would have better performance, or you could wait a few months until the s23 is a few months old and then you could find s22 for better price☺️
[Samsung Galaxy S22] Henckel15:
Currently there's a 200.00 discount if I trade in my old s8 but I think I'll take the main advice of waiting for the s23 😁
[Samsung Galaxy S22] Maciek602:
Wait for S23, I'm really disappointed with my S22. Laggy, bad battery performance.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] INviSibl3KIL97:
Hey guys,

I am trying to unlock my bootloader on my OP 7 pro Global version. i am currently running android 12 and hate it so much i am trying to downgrade back to 11.

In order to do this i need to unlock my bootloader and flash the old os... but I keep getting this weird error.

When i run command "fastboot oem unlock" i receive -

FAILED (remote: 'Device cannot be unlocked for technical reason.')

fastboot: error: Command failed

When i run "fastboot devices" i can see my device.

under developer setting i have all ready toggled allow oem unlock...

nothing seems to get around this issue and i am currently stuck and have no idea what else to try.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] DaveImagery:
The MSM Tool should help you. Worked for me. I converted my T-Mobile variant, to Global using it. Follow the guide, and the MSM tool will flash your phone back to stock, with bootloader locked once again.

Edit: I should note, the tool will wipe your phone, so backup obviously.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] INviSibl3KIL97:
Yes thank you! i was gonna write here that i eventually put my phone in edl mode and downgraded through msm tool to OOS 11.

Thank you!

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FailSafeNow:
I need an app to monitor network usage. But not historic network usage. Current network usage. All I seem to find are apps that tell me how much data apps have used over the past month. But I don't want that. I don't want has-been-using. I want is-using-right-now. If I look at my VPN connection and see that something is using data right at that second and hogging all my bandwidth, it does me no good to know what programs have used a lot of data over the past month, because I don't care about the past month. I only care about right now. I need to know what program IS using data that very second.

Also, I'd like to have a program that lets me throttle bandwidth usage, if there are any.

You know the program NetLimiter, for Windows? Basically I want that for Android.

i may not be able to help but could you perhaps share the super.bin? i would like to take a look at it.
[General Topics] izyer:
You can test with this, {Mod edit: Link to paid services website removed. Oswald Boelcke, Senior Moderator}, its same as mine but no google play. Its the full rom unlocked, wifi still doesnt work. With this rom if i select "student mode" i can update the phone OTA to v3.0.2 or something and everything works but you cant install any apps, if we could merge them somehow... , I did try to grab only the system_a.img and flash it but the phone wont work after, i can cross flash the system_a.img from my google play rom to the one i shared but after update it doesnt work anymore (to crossflash).

How do you flash that ROM_2 file that is in the downloaded package?
[General Topics] izyer:
you just flash the super.bin from it in fastboot, if you have developer enabled on your phone you do:

adb reboot fastboot (or you shut down your phone and then you press volume UP and the power on button)

then

fastboot flash super super.bin (or super.img , dont remember if its .bin or .img)

I got Qin F22 Pro

But only English and Chinese languages

Can i use this firmware to get all languages?

What should I flash

Super.rar

Or ROM_2_1.0.7_Unlocked.7z

Once I unzip ROM_2_1.0.7_Unlocked.7z

I get file 59GB😵‍💫
[General Topics] kamil.syria:
Did you try it?
[General Topics] kamil.syria:
Once i make root for my F22 pro

The Bluetooth not working

I try to do same like this post👆🏻

But how i can get (Scatter File) from rom folder

The ROM_2_1.0.7_Unlocked.7z

Have only one file 59 GB

Any help??
[General Topics] izyer:
You can delete userdata file from ROM_2_1.0.7_Unlocked, its a file with 50GB that you dont need.

I am flashing it with "mtkclient" ( https://github.com/bkerler/mtkclient , i have a version that works nice with windows but this one should work too) or you can only flash the system_a.img from super.bin / .img with fastboot.

Flashing super.rar - you get Google play but no WiFi , no Volte or VoWifi + a random crash sometimes, only EN and CH and bad microphone when calling.

Flashing ROM_2_1.0.7_Unlocked.7z (or only the system_a.img INSIDE super.img from fastboot) and going with the normal mode you get working WiFI and no crash but Volte and Vowifi doesnt work, bad microphone when calling, only EN and CH and no Google Play but you can install from 3rd party

Flashing ROM_2_1.0.7_Unlocked.7z (or only the system_a.img INSIDE super.img from fastboot) but going with the Student mode (second option on first boot), you can OTA update to the last firmware 3.0.0 something and you get working Wifi and Volte. VoWifi still crashes , you cant install any apps and no Google play, only EN / CH. (i didnt test microphone quality with this one)

Flashing system_a.img from super.rar after flashing the rest of the files from ROM_2_1.0.7_Unlocked.7z (all files from super.img less system_a.img ) you get Google play, WiFI working but no Volte or VoWifi , only EN and CH bad microphone when calling.

My phone came with an "pure Android version" (and i didnt backup it before flashing this other stuff , sadly) , it had all languages ,google play and no bugs (vowifi , volte etc all working) but the keypad buttons werent doing what they supposed to do and some stock functions were missing (ex: You couldnt end call from end call button etc , the screen was just going off instead and many others things like this), you had to do many things from the touchscreen. The seller sent me that super.bin but as you see its bugged , but the buttons from the keypad are working as intended.

Seller told me like 4 5 6 times in the past month that he will give me Global ROM with no bugs but nothing, he said its not released yet.

Edit: We need this firmware but i cant find it anywhere:
[General Topics] kamil.syria:
Thx for reply

I got my F22 pro without google service

I was think all languages with this

That’s why I want try others

Maybe I will wait until someone fix it

But I will try

If i unpack ROM_2_1.0.7_Unlocked.7z

I get only one file

Did I should use other unpack program?

To get files
[General Topics] izyer:
Unpack again with 7zip even it doesnt have a extension.

Unpack ROM_2_1.0.7_Unlocked.7z with 7zip u get ROM_2 file

Unpack ROM_2 with 7zip u will get all the images.

42.super.img is what you looking for in ROM_2~ folder.

After you can flash 42.super.img from fastboot (cant remember if its working like this ) or you can use mtkclient.

OR

You can unpack 42.super.img and u will get system_a.img (+others)

Connect your Phone to the PC then reboot into fastboot

adb reboot fastboot

after that do (when your phone is in fastboot mode)

fastboot reboot fastboot

after that

fastboot flash system_a.img

(you can flash the other files insde too same way ( EX: fastboot flash system_b.img etc..)

After flashing if your phone boots directly into fastboot instead of booting the android type:

fastboot reboot recovery

There it should be an option to wipe all data from your phone and it should boot normally.

If your phone gets stuck for some reason just flash the super.rar i uploaded like this:

7zip super.rar (and you will get super.bin)

go into fastboot ( you can do that by pressing volume up and power for a few seconds)

when you are in fastboot type

fastboot flash super.bin

(fastboot reboot recovery if the phone gets stuck and wipe all the data)

Edit:

You can also flash all files from 42.super.img (included in ROM_2_1.0.7_Unlocked.7z) less system_a.img

Then flash system_a.img from the file ive uploaded (super.rar), this way, i think, you are getting Google Play + WiFI working + no major bugs but no Volte or VoWIfi and bad microphone.

You can download Phone app from Google Play and in settings of that app you have to disable "Noise canceling" then you can uninstall the phone app and the microphone will be better. I also notice that with this 2 roms the 3G signal is kinda bad (i think it depends of your Operator or this ROMs has only CH 3g bands) .

If you only flash the files from 42.super.img ( system_a.img ) at first boot you will get 2 options in CH , first one is Normal user and second one is Student user. None of them have Google Play.

With Normal user you can install apks but no Play Store etc.

With Student user you can use OTA and update to the last version, everything works there but you cant install any APKs

Sorry if I disturb you

There’s any other tool to flash this rom

Thx
[General Topics] izyer:
Do it without MTKCLIENT.

Enable the USB Debugging option under Settings > Developer options.

Developer options is hidden by default; use the following steps:

On the device, go to Settings > About <device>.

Tap the Build number seven times to make Settings > Developer options available.

Then enable the USB Debugging option. (From Developer options)

Then connect your phone to your computer and enter flashboot mode.

You can find a way of doing it here: @ https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-19503.html

unpack 42.super.img and u will get system_a.img (+others)

adb reboot fastboot (this will reboot your phone in fastboot)

fastboot reboot fastboot (this will go in mode that you can flash system.a.img )

fastboot flash system_a system_a.img

fastboot flash system_b system_b.img

.... do that for all the files.

QIN F22 PRO ROM HACK​

I finally got the Qin F22 Pro to work with Google Play services, though it was a tedious process.

I made a blog post about it, it should be pretty easy for everyone, since I kind of went in depth on everything. I mean I had to, since the other guide didn't say anything about the important files and folders.

Anyways, here's the link:

Flashing stock firmware on a Xiaomi device involves using official tools provided by Xiaomi. Keep in mind that the process may void your warranty, and it's crucial to follow the steps carefully. Additionally, please note that my information is accurate as of January 2022, and Xiaomi's procedures might have changed, so it's advisable to check for any updated instructions on Xiaomi's official website.

Here's a general guide on how to flash stock firmware on a Xiaomi device:

### Prerequisites:

1. Make sure your device has sufficient battery.

2. Backup important data as the process may erase everything on your device.

### Steps:

1. **Unlock the Bootloader:**

- Xiaomi devices usually require an unlocked bootloader for flashing. Follow the official Xiaomi bootloader unlock process.

2. **Download and Install Xiaomi Mi Flash Tool:**

- Download the official Xiaomi Mi Flash Tool on your computer.

3. **Download Stock Firmware:**

- Find the correct stock firmware for your Xiaomi device. Xiaomi often provides firmware on their official website.

4. **Enable USB Debugging:**

- On your Xiaomi device, go to Settings > About phone > tap on "MIUI version" multiple times to enable Developer Options.

- In Developer Options, enable USB Debugging.

5. **Boot into Fastboot Mode:**

- Power off your device.

- Press and hold the Volume Down button and the Power button simultaneously until the Fastboot logo appears.

6. **Connect your Device to the Computer:**

- Connect your Xiaomi device to the computer using a USB cable.

7. **Run Xiaomi Mi Flash Tool:**

- Open the Mi Flash Tool on your computer.

8. **Load Firmware:**

- In Mi Flash Tool, click on "Select" and choose the firmware you downloaded.

9. **Flash Firmware:**

- Click on "Flash" to start the flashing process. This will install the stock firmware on your device.

10. **Wait for Completion:**

- The tool will display a success message when the process is complete. Do not disconnect your device until the process is finished.

11. **Reboot:**

- After successful flashing, reboot your device.

### Additional Notes:

- For Google Play services: Stock firmware usually includes Google Play services. However, if it doesn't, you might need to install Google Play services separately.

- For Rooting: If you want to root your device after flashing, you'll need to follow a separate process, and it's crucial to be aware of the risks and consequences of rooting.

Always refer to the official documentation and resources provided by Xiaomi for the most accurate and up-to-date instructions. If you are unsure about any step, consider seeking assistance from the Xiaomi community or forums.

Hi everyone.

I'm not so familiar with flashing, even though I think I know how, I've never actually flashed anything.

- the fact is that the qin f21 has become extremely popular (for dumbphone users) since it's possible to make it work in the USA (via flashing a f30 with USA bands) but people forgot about the F-22 pro which still doesn't have a solution.

- I thought of one. How about flashing a cat s22 flip stock ROM to the F-22. Let's say we remove the outer screen feature, and then bingo - you got android 11 (go) , USA bands, Google play services, screen size, physical keyboard etc. etc.

- I personally don't have any experience with flashing, maybe you geniuses can help me. Should I take a shot? Would the phone explode? Should I use SP flashing tool? Where can I get the stock ROM for the cat s22?

- thanks
