[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] upbeatwrench:
Anyone here using US version S22 Ultra or any US version Samsung phone in Japan?

Can you please tell me about battery life and are there any signal/reception/bands issue?

I've bought a t-mobile S8+ and at&t s7 edge on ebay before (around july 2017)

the s8+ was pretty new at that time, I think the battery is still very good but it would drain the battery from 100 to 10 overnight

just standing-by. I even made a factory reset and let it sit overnight but it still drains the battery so bad.

It was the same thing for the s7 edge I bought on ebay :(

I still don't know what's the reason why or maybe because of incompatible bands??? the phone is trying so hard to search for signal??

I have really good good coverage in my area though, I'm getting an average RSRP reading of -80dBm - -85dBm

I'm still hesitant about buying another one since I don't want to buy Japanese versions of Samsung phone anymore,

and amazon US the only option where I can buy new phone that ships to japan. 😅

I would just like to thank all of the people on xda and especially all the blackstone programmers/contributors for your amazing willingness to just give away your hard work . Because without xda i would have never bought the blackstone and im sure im not the only one . HTC needs to catch a wakeup and support you guys /or pay you some sort of royalty :)
[Touch HD General] ~~Tito~~:
If only they would hire people on here! Then we would see some kick ass devices.
[Touch HD General] NeoS:
Yes, XDA makes our devices cool. No thanks to HTC.
[Touch HD General] nin2thevoid:
HTC makes the platforms we base our customizations on... I'm not sure if saying no thanks to HTC is entirely fair. Yes, there is a lot left to be desired, but I like the HD even without modification, but thanks to XDA I just love it.

Major thanks to all the people that provide customization and addons to phone, or should I say, computer platform with a calling function slapped onto it :)
[Touch HD General] kevinniven:
HTC and others

I know they search XDA and try out the roms. XDA you guys fully rock!!

Loads of talent here!!

[General Questions and Answers] Smart Job:
I have being facing seriously issues with my infinix note 10 for over a month now. Unknown hacker took over my device controlling and disturbing my devices. I have changed up to 3 phone which they are still controlling till now. I seriously don't know what have done wrong.

Please the awesome form. I have come to you for recue from this unknown hackers. Both my emails, whatsapp, phone call and test messages is being controlled remotely with a lot of different apps downloaded on my phone.

Please I need help I beg you .... This are the many things downloaded on my phone.
[General Questions and Answers] V0latyle:
Most of those are either integrated system processes or otherwise appear innocuous. I'm not sure how much help we can be if you believe someone has hacked you.

This is what I would recommend:

Using a computer, log into your Google account. Go to the Security tab, sign out from all devices, and disable third party app access. Immediately change your password. Use a secure password consisting of, at a minimum, 8 characters including lowercase, uppercase, numbers, and special characters. Enable two factor authentication using your phone.

Factory reset your device, and be careful what apps you install.

Never, ever give anyone else your personal information and passwords.

Remember, the best way to avoid being the victim of identity or financial theft is to practice good security.
[General Questions and Answers] Smart Job:
Okay thank you. But I will say that have done everything you just mentioned and the same is still happening. This unknown are always online and I think they are in groups. But anyway I appreciate your respond so much . I will keep looking for a way out. Thank you
[Google Pixel 6] slickrasta:
Anyone know why I get this error in Files when trying to install YouTube 17.45.36.apk from APKmirror? The issue started after I factory wiped, updated to Android 13 Nov security patch then rerooted my Pixel 6. The one thing I've noticed that's different is [UIShared] Shell is missing from Superuser list in Magisk now but I'm unsure if that's related. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Edit: the fix was to search YT in Play Store then select uninstall, after that the APK installed just fine.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Linkoh:
I've been trying a few custom ROMs (ArrowOS and Ricedroid) and a few custom kernels (Vantom and Sleepy) and I've noticed that the battery life is just worse. I went from an active drain of 10%/hr and an idle drain of 0.5%/hr (on debloated MIUI) to an active drain of around 12-15%/hr and an idle drain of 0.8-1.0%/hr (on Ricedroid+Sleepy, best one so far in my experience), which is an obvious increment in comparison.

I've also seen a huge number of people complaining about terrible drain on basically every custom ROM I've seen on here.

It's confusing because performance also seems to take a hit, so it's an overall worse experience, outside of the additional functionality which is often pretty great (both ArrowOS and Ricedroid look amazing).

So why is the battery life so much better on MIUI compared to these almost (?)-AOSP custom ROMs? What can I do to further increase battery life AND performance?
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] jnsson:
Because MIUI has too aggressive battery management which result in apps not working as it should (i.e notification not coming). One of the reasons I use custom rom.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Patoilo:
I´d suggest that you apply GMS Doze magisk module, Naptime app (from Francisco Franco, which also includes a magisk module) and also apply restrictions on battery usage of most Google stuff.

That really makes a difference.

I haven´t tried it yet on the RN10PRO (as my bootloader only unlocks this Sunday), but on Poco F2 Pro, while using Ricedroid and Immensity Kernel - these dozing/restriction tricks made active drain stay around 8%/hr (vs 12.5%/hr previously) and idle drain to go down to 0.4%/hr (vs 1.1%/hr previously).

Good luck :)
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Linkoh:
Yo thank you for the tips, I'm definitely gonna try your strategy and I'm excited to see if it works for me too! Can I ask you what kind of apps you restricted? It would be great :) Also did you restrict GMS or did you just put it on "optimised"?
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] SaulPanzer:
It hasn't been my experience with Arrow 12.1 vs MIUI 13, not a like for like comparison though to be fair.

MIUI was constantly chirping away to Xiaomi and Google, and my locked down vanilla Arrow install barely does anything while idle so the battery life is pretty impressive.

I charged it to 100% yesterday, since then I've watched some stuff on youtube, listened to an audiobook, made a few calls, messed around with wallpapers etc...and it's at 70%.

Can't really say much in terms of gaming performance since dropping the play store has cut off the games I'd usually install. General usage is at least as snappy as MIUI was, probably faster since I have 1/4 of the stuff installed.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Linkoh:
Yeah, my stock MIUI was terrible both performance-wise and battery-wise, but after debloating it (by disabling basically every Xiaomi service / app) my phone was flying with amazing battery.

I'm guessing that you've flashed the vanilla / degoogled ROM, right? This sounds like a good idea. I flashed the gapps version and my experience was not nice, and just restricting Google Services' battery usage made my phone go 0.1%/hr overnight which is insane.

Though, active drain remains insanely high around 15%/hr... Can't find out why :(
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] SaulPanzer:
Vanilla ArrowOS 12.1, no gapps or anything like that and I'm not rooted if makes a difference.

I use F-droid for most things and a few I grabbed from the official GIT repos like brave-browser, yubikey stuff and session, netguard is blocking everything I don't actively use.

Also I'm using Nova launcher instead of Quickstep, I haven't tested to see if that makes a change to the battery life.

If you're after all the fancy extras then that won't work for you, it's slick and I like the feel of the phone but definitely feels minimal.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Slluxx:
Same. My phone charges in ~20 minutes and lasts several days without charging. With more screentime, thats obviously reduced but ive never had a phone/rom combo that lasts as long as this one. I hate MIUI for their agressive battery management which brings more bugs and less batterylife. And its so good that even though i want to upgrade to the next android version, im going to stay right where i am because it seems like no rom can keep up with this.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Linkoh:
Hmm that's interesting. I don't rely on much Google stuff (except GPay and Maps which are very hard to replace), so this actually sounds appealing to me. Can I ask you to send a screenshot of Accubattery / BatteryGuru if possible? I have had horrible luck with battery life so far it seems :(
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] SaulPanzer:
I think GPay needs extra stuff that I don't have but I don't use it so not 100% on that and I use Organicmaps but not like a car GPS so no idea if it's capable of that.

I installed Accubattery yesterday with the phone at ~97%, pretty light usage and fell asleep with a video streaming on the phone since then.

For fair disclosure I'm not entirely sure how accurate the battery measurements are since my phone says there's still nearly 1.5h of charge time left when it hits full charge.

[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Linkoh:
Wow, actually insane. Thank you for sharing the screenshots! Can I ask you if you noticed any kind of hiccups or lags? Do you run it on 120hz?
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] SaulPanzer:
No problem, I run it on 60hz since I don't game or do any video stuff.

There are options for 60Hz-60Hz/60Hz-120Hz/120Hz-120Hz, I can select them but with my usage I don't notice any visible difference and leave it on 60.

No lag that I can notice apart from data lag (loading a site like twitch takes a second or 2 for all the thumbnails to load, the browser itself opens instantly).

I've had 1 hiccup in the month or so I've used the ROM, for some reason the fingerprint unlock didn't work 1 time and I had to restart the phone.

I just restarted to test it and from hitting restart it only takes 17 seconds to reboot back to the lock screen so no major hassle.

The other problems are ones I make for myself by using a non Gapps vanilla ROM, so limited customization, can't install a fancy camera app, certain apps won't install without rooting etc...(non issues for me personally).
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] ¿GotJazz?:
Sorry for the noobish questions, but it has been quite a long time since I upgraded my Samsung firmware with Odin (Galaxy S III, anybody?), and ... the world has changed a smidge.

I am using my phone in the US on the AT&T network. I have unlocked my bootloader, so I don't get OTA updates anymore. Before I accidentally brick my brand-new phone, I have a few very basic questions:

My SM-S908E-D/S has region codes of "CHO" (Chile) all over the place. I assume that I can only install the CHO region firmware update package, correct?

My understanding is that I will power off the phone, power up into Download Mode, then connect the USB to my PC/Odin. From there, I will be installing the BL, AP, CP, and HOME_CSC partitions, correct?

Is there anything I will need to do for my phone to be reconfigured for the AT&T network after the update? I seem to remember seeing something a configuration for AT&T pop up when I first powered up the phone.

THanks!

¿GJ?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] V0latyle:
No, you can install any region code, although you may have baseband issues.

Yes. To enter download mode, some devices require that you start with the device off, hold both Volume buttons, and connect the USB cable.

As long as you have a valid SIM, network provisioning should be automatic.
[Moto G Stylus 5G] davidjuniorsaylor:
There are so many phone models that have same or similar names. When I look into my "About Phone", it plainly states:

" or

"moto g stylus 5G 2021

" actually have a phone that says:

[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] xVoidx:
Hello

I'm going to start off with I don't think there is a resolution to my problem but maybe someone knows a different method.

I have the US Unlocked ZFold 4 (SM-F936U1)

What I have been able to do so far.

1. Setup Custom APN to add "dun" to the "APN Type" setting

2. Add IPv4 support back into the custom APN

3. Changed TTL on the client (In my case Windows 11 via reg edit method)

Method:

In Reg Edit go to -> HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE subtree, go to the following key: \SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters

Add REG_DWORD "DefaultTTL"

Set to 65(dec)

4. Profit

This lets me use the Native hotspot without a cap or even paying for it .....HOWEVER. Having to change the TTL on each client device is such a pain or not even possible on say an XBOX or Smart TV. I want to be able to change it on the phone directly but there does not seem to be a way with out root.

There is a Terminal Command that seems to do this "cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_default_ttl 65" but I get an error and I think this is because you need root to make this change.

Are there any ways to change this or am I just stuck only being able to use the hotspot on clients I can change the TTL?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] xVoidx:
81 Views no replys :/ as I assumed no way to change this.

Maybe this can change going forward. Until then I want for a root method for the US unlocked version.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] Poopnasty:
I can't change the apn

Unlocked fold 4 USA variant
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] xVoidx:
You can't change the current APN but you can add a new APN and manually copy in the same thing for each field. Verify it works first before making any changes. It should work without issue as long as you copy everything exactly as it is from the one you can't edit. From there you can add "dun" to the APN type field and it will work with the native hot spot. Keep in mind you need to change the TTL on the client device you are connecting to the hotspot. This is not always possible, however it is on a Mac or a PC.
[Touch HD General] HAMANN1:
Is any software, update, firmware to improve resolution of camera HTC Touch HD 352x288 to VGA 640x480?
[Touch HD General] Nighthawk2050:
I have never had an issue? Try the registry tweaks in this forum.
[Touch HD General] nin2thevoid:
You mean video resolution I presume? I find the camera to be quite slow, mainly due to the resolution it has to record already. Upping the resolution would only make it even slower. I don't think there is a tweak for it, but technically it would be possible as the sensor provides 5mp.

But, the only thing that disappoints me about the camera is how slow it is under low light situations. The Nokia N96 for instance, remains fast even when there is not much light, and despite the speed, it still makes a much clearer and brighter image, even without flash.

These are all software issues for sure as the sensor framerate is constant (meaning the sensor emits data under the same speed at each level of light reception), it is just the software that takes a long time to create a 'proper' image from very little data (not much light means little information is provided by the sensor, meaning the software needs to translate more), so I would not be surprised if HTC improved on this with a software update.

Here's hoping.

[Touch HD General] strider.am:
its a hardware limitation. the 7201 processor it uses can do video recording only at that resolution. Something to do with some licensing issue.

frankly, considering that the patent problem is only in the USA, and that htc is not launching the touch hd in the USA, they could have very easily used the better 7200 [it supports VGA recording, check out the Xperia X1i] chipset in the other countries...

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Questions & Answers] TimucinPusat:
Yesterday evening, after downloading the official firmware from sammobile.com, installing the samsung driver, activating OEM Unlocking and USB Debugging mode, I started to flash the firmware with the latest version Odin. It gave md5 error while loading the AP file on Odin. When I searched on the net, it was said to just delete the md5 extension of this file and try again. So I did that and the firmware started to load normally. When the green line was near the end, it stayed there for about 10 minutes. I was in a hurry too. I disconnected the phone from the PC so I could reinstall it at home.

But the phone gave the warning "An erorr has occured while updating the device software". Neither download nor recovery mode was available.

Smart Switch did not see the phone. When I tried to reinstall with Odin, the green line under the Odin USERDATA text got stuck towards the end, although there was no line or movement on the phone. No movement for 15-20 minutes. What should I do and what is the outcome of this situation? I would appreciate it if experienced, expert people share information. Thank you in advance. I am waiting.

[Xiaomi 12 Pro] Wuqqers:
Hello guys I bought Mi 12 lite last month and when I received the device, I noticed that there was a problem with the device and I reported it to xiaomi and they told me to send it to the service. About 10 days after I took my phone to the service and gave it to the service, the service said that the software was installed on the device and the problem was fixed, I went and bought the phone, but the error continued, so I contacted it. I sent it back for service. Mi 12 lite was out of stock and I was very disappointed so the brand offered to give me a higher model and now I have xiaomi mi12 pro and I see the same problem in it. When the battery percentage drops below 55%, the settings section looks strange and the back of the control center does not fog up, normally it should be steam... If anyone has encountered this problem and solved it, can you explain how you did it?

The problem occurs when running dark theme with battery saver turned on...

yes, when I go to the battery section from the settings section, I see the settings icon at the top right, but because the dark mode is a bug or malfunctioning in the battery saving mode, I keep the turn on dark theme feature off when in battery save mode.
