[Vivo X90 Pro Plus] wolfgang212:
it seems about right, problem is i find accubattery not accurate. Last night around midnight it showed 6 30h screentime at 18% before going to sleep which seemed about right compared to phone stats and that was on wifi the whole day but at 5 am the battery dropped to 12% while sleeping and accubattery showed 7 30h screentime while the entire night the screen was off, it added 1 hour of screentime out of nowhere.

So basically even tho accubattery estimates a full charge having around 9h screentime , i feel that in real usage i can squeeze max 7 hours on a very optimistic day but more like 6 hours+.

I have sleep mode disabled since it seems to turn wifi off during night messing my home automation .

I don't consider myself a heavy user at all, i don't even play games, my screen is on 1080p and refresh rate on smart but i feel they really screwed the battery time on this phone.

I came from a p40 pro and this phone same battery life as the 2 year old battery on my p40 pro which is about 6.5h screen time from 100% to 15-20%.

Contrary my wife's s23 ultra loses only 2-3% per night compared with 8-9% on my vivo and last time i checked she had 48 hours since last charge with 8 30h screen time and still 34% battery left, basically my wife can charge her s23ultra every 3 days as a light user so 2 days battery is realistic on samsung as a normal user. They have same cpu, same screen power consumption and only a small 300 mAh difference yet samsung gives 60-70% more battery life while i was expecting only 10-15% gain on samsung so vivo fcked up really hard somewhere otherwise is a better phone than s23 ultra in most aspects but this huge battery life difference starts to even things out .

Now i'll just have to deal with it for 2 years and for sure won't buy a vivo again without watching a battery drain test on youtube, i was afraid this was going to happen but was optimistic that the gen 2 and bigish battery would give excellent battery life.

Sure it can last the entire day while home but it forces me to charge to 100% instead of 80% and while traveling and being without wifi and in areas with bad signal it wont last for a day.

Btw does anyone know why i can't disable fast charging?on global version it has a toggle to do it. I am forced to use another charger as i can't charge slow with original charger as i want fast charging only when in a hurry to preserve battery life.
[Vivo X90 Pro Plus] maxel77:
I'm really satisfied with Vivo's battery so I suppose you must have some problems with your phone configuration. My phone's battery lasts almost 2 days.
[Vivo X90 Pro Plus] extremecarver:
The battery drain tests on youtube tell you nothing much about real life. They only tell you about how much discharge is likely on high power app use.

BTW - the Honor Magic 5 Pro aced those youtube drain tests - but now seems to fail in real life tests like gsmarena!

And dxomark gives the asnwer directly why it aced those game/benchmark heavy drain tests - because it throttled way more than any other SD8Gen2 phone. If one phone has twice the refresh rate in a game vs another one - it's the same time span but not the same amount of work done.

GSMArena battery rating is about as good as it gets. Also pretty realistic are the DXOMark on the go tests. Just note that the DXOMark battery rating has like 50% charging performance inbuilt - so you need to look into the detailed scores.

I haven't noticed accubattery adding hours - but that would explain quite a lot too, hahah.
[Vivo X90 Pro Plus] extremecarver:
BTW - S23U aced the dxomark battery test (except for charging of course) - that has been published only in the last days:

DXOMARK

Everything you need to know about the Smartphone Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra (Snapdragon) 📱. From specifications to Pros & Cons and Scores, discover the Review by DXOMARK

www.dxomark.com

X90PP or X90Pro has no battery review on DXOmark, but Xiaomi 13 Pro got added very recently too. The X80 Pro the last vivo Flagship did very poorly on the autonomy tests.
[Vivo X90 Pro Plus] wolfgang212:
how much screen time you get in these almost 2 days?

gsmarena only shows the non plus version which has different battery size and different cpu so results are not relevant , can't understand why they fail to test a flagship but test other ****ty phones.

Eventually i might do a hard reset and start slowly adding stuff so i can monitor exactly at what point the battery drain starts but i have a feeling it won't solve anything
[Vivo X90 Pro Plus] extremecarver:
The x90 pro and the x90 pro + had virtually identical battery use on notebookcheck - though without explanation notebookcheck left out the interesting battery tests for them. Then vivo announces actually better battery life for x90 and x90 pro vs pro+ in their specs. X90 vanilla according to Chinese reviews is clearly better in real life than x90 pro+... They botched some things for sure on vivo side.

I don't think dxomark will add battery tests for vivo. Not sure why but vivo is the brand they leave out very often on battery tests.
[Vivo X90 Pro Plus] maxel77:
10,5h according to Accubattery
[Vivo X90 Pro Plus] wolfgang212:
yeah sorry but now i'm pretty sure accubattery shows fake numbers and i think all of you using that app are confused and need to test this properly because it shows over 10h on a full charge for me too but in reality that number is more like 6-7 hours screentime.

As i said earlier, overnight where it loses 10%(which is insane btw, last phone that lost that much on idle was a s10 with exynos crap), accubattery reported 1h 30 min extra screentime WHILE THE SCREEN WAS COMPLETLY OFF for the entire night and I am pretty sure it pumps the number during the day too where is harder to notice. So i suggest doing the same test as me and screenshot the screentime before going to sleep and right after you wake up and see if the screentime remained the same or is pumped like mine.
[Vivo X90 Pro Plus] extremecarver:
If you charge your phone before going to bed then unplug you may have 0% 😭😭😭.

(Not that this is anyway correct but the calibration off the battery is was off. 60% is the actual 50%.... And that is clearly on purpose in order to score better on reviews like Chinas most popular reviewer XiaoBai.)
[Vivo X90 Pro Plus] :
You could also take digital wellbeing as a reference. It was pretty accurate. But be careful it counts from 0:00 to 0:00. (24h)
[Vivo X90 Pro Plus] wolfgang212:
accubattery shows about 40% more screentime than from digital wellbeing
[Vivo X90 Pro Plus] Eric-Mod:
I'm aware that this question doesn't really belong in here but I don't want to create a new thread for this simple question - My latest vivo was a X70 Pro plus and it was, let's say okay. I'm still thinking about ordering a X90 Pro+ or maybe an S23 Ultra but whats still bothering me is, are there issues with using Spotfiy via bluetooth in the car? Like, is it autoplaying when it's connected via blueooth? The "iMusic" app was behaving like crazy on the X70 Pro Plus I remember.
[Vivo X90 Pro Plus] bmw320cd:
i have X90 PP connect via BT in the car radio with spotify on the phone , and work perfect
[Vivo X90 Pro Plus] extremecarver:
Yes huge problem if you have another Bluetooth device coupled like a Garmin smartwatch. Then cannot use external speakers before disconnecting the watch. The vivo mistakes the watch as a speaker even though it correctly announces it isn't. Cannot connect to any home equipment like echo or Sonos while having the watch connected. If you connect several speakers no way to set a preference that I found.
[Vivo X90 Pro Plus] bmw320cd:
I do not know what you're talking about . My X90 PP is connected to my radio via BT and my Huawei smartwatch via BT at the same time and everything works perfectly. And external speaker work
[Vivo X90 Pro Plus] extremecarver:
Cannot get my Echo Dot to work before disconnecting my Garmin Smartwatch. (Fenix 6x Pro). Once I disconnect it audio will be routed to the Echo.

I cannot find a menu where I could define which blueetooth device is supposed to be used for audio. (The fenix 6x Pro doesn't have this problem if connected to my PC (shows as not possible to be used as a speaker) or to other devices.

I have some bluetooth headphones too - and I don't find anywhere a menu to set preference which ones to use if more bluetooth speakers are connected. However contrary to the Echo my Shockz headphones seem to take preference over Fenix 6x on the audio part. So not sure how this is determined.
[Vivo X90 Pro Plus] Eric-Mod:
At first, Thank you for your answer. Just curious - you talk about privacy on this phone in some other thread and also use an Echo Dot at home and wear a smartwatch? I guess your negativity with this phone should be taken with a grain of salt.
[Vivo X90 Pro Plus] extremecarver:
Echo DOT can be used without disclosing data to Amazon just as an Bluetooth speaker - the DOT is perfect for traveling and much better than any? at least my laptop speakers - and it's cheap. If you don't hand over the wifi to an Echo - it's a simple bluetooth speaker., nothing smart about it then.

Yeah - smartwatches from Garmin gather some data to be useful - but pretty abstract from any other data on your phone/PC. Their privacy is pretty good concerning what they gather and what not. There is a huge difference to what Vivo is doing.

SEK - Working call recorder, Missing SPay, Missing CallID

Hi, why is everyone using a new SEK code? Isn't the CallID function missing in real life?

There are other codes available where everything is working... e.g.

XXV- Working call recorder, Working SPay, Missing CallID

THL - Working call recorder, Working SPay, Working CallID

INU - Working call recorder, Working SPay, Working CallID

thanks for the explanation and for the advice from real users
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] efkosk:
There are some limitations with the galaxy watch. (ecg etc..)
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] gpap2004:
As already mentioned above, SEK is OK for those who owned a samsung galaxy watch 4 or 5 because ECG and blood pressure monitor are working flawlessly. SEK is a csc which is more suitable for European phone users. Call ID is missing but speaking from my point of view is useless in my country (Greece) as it is limited for some spam numbers only. But you can always download and use Hiya app from play store if you want. Samsung Pay is missing but is not provided to many European countries (neither in Greece) and most people uses Google Wallet.

Last, with SEK, HD voice (a Vodafone's function for crystal clear phone conversation) and RCS chat Google messaging futures are also working.

Hope I helped!

After enabling ADB , you connect your phone to your windows PC. You accept any pop up message about connecting. You run samfw app. You go to the third tab of the app if I right remember where adb is present. You write the desired CSC you want to have and then press the OK button. That's it

You can switch to INS or ILO for native spam control as already mentioned above. Otherwise, download Hiya app from play store (or just google the Hiya mod full version) for spam control

As USA user, do you lose features like HD calling, wifi calling and certain bands when you switch your CSC?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] nguyenlucky:
It's because on INS CSC, a message is sent each time a sim card is inserted.

Block these numbers from sending SMS might stop the charge

Hi all,

I'm considering upgrading my device's original ROM (V13.0.9.0.SKWEUXM) to the latest ROM (V14.0.3.0.TKWMIXM). I have already unlocked the bootloader on my device. Can anyone tell me what my options are for installing this new ROM? Additionally, is it safe to perform this upgrade procedure?

Thanks in advance for your help!
[Xiaomi 11T] NOSS8:
You must first use Mi Flash to upgrade from EEA to Global using a Fastboot rom.

V13.0.7.0.SKWMIXM.(TGZ).

Then check if the updater offers you the V14.0.3.0.TKWMIXM (Beta Stable) or download it and try to install it with the updater (3 points at the top right).

<Moderator Note>: Kernel source missing, and Gcam & Night_Light_Fix Telegram links require Telegram registration in order to download.

@DARSHAN MEVADA, due to you previously having issues with Kernel Source links in your OPs, I can only give you 24 hours from now to fix your OP. Also, the Gcam and Night_Light_Fix Telegram links require Telegram registration in order to download, which goes against Post #5 "WhatsApp/Telegram Groups and Channels - Going Forward" from the stickied thread at the top of every section Guide to Asus Device Forums (Please Read before Posting), which also details the requirements for Development threads in Post #2 "XDA-Developers and the GPL" and Post #3 "ROMs, Kernel, Recoveries, & Other Development Forum".

I won't bother to quote the relevant parts of those posts, as you should be familiar with these by now.

Please PM me when these things are fixed, or in 24 hours I will remove all links from the OP and close the thread. Also, PM me if you have any questions about this, or if, once the thread is closed, and if you want to fix it, then just click the Report button in the bottom right corner of your OP and the next available moderator will re-open your thread so that you can fix it within 24 hours of re-opening it.

Thank you,

Update: Due to not even receiving at least a response about this, I've closed the thread. Please use the Report button at the bottom right of your OP when you're ready to fix these items. If you post any new development threads without a direct link to the Kernel source, and with more than one Telegram link, but that Telegram link must not require Telegram registration if it's for downloading something related to the development), then you will receive an official warning next time. Once you receive enough official warnings, further action may be taken against your account.

The GPL legally requires everyone including XDA to link to the updated kernel source used in any Android ROM that's published on XDA.

Amazon codes it in to the bootloader. Most fastboot commands are blocked except for reboot, getvar for eg. Removing the restrictions requires an Amazon issued unlock code that is created with a private encryption key and the device serial#.

When I first got my Tab A7 Lite with Android 11, I was able to set Dark Mode in the Facebook settings. After the update to Android 12 the Dark Mode option for FB disappear. The only way to get Dark Mode is to "Force" Dark Mode for "All" apps in the Developer Options. I do not want to "Force" this mode for all applications as some do not display legible fonts on dark mode.

[Samsung Galaxy M31 Accessories] john080347:
For over 2 years I have been using a charging lead with a magnetic connection and a USB adaptor to my M31 with no trouble. It is particularly useful in the car where I can easily attach (and detach) the charging lead with one hand. Now, for over a week, it is hardly charging at all, with just a pathetic 75 - 125 milliamps. This compares to 2000+ mA on a regular plug-in charger.

I have tried several different magnetic connectors and adaptors, and they are all the same. It seems that something may have changed with the software on the phone, but I would be grateful if anyone has any ideas on restoring the charging functionality.
[Samsung Galaxy M31 Accessories] ze7zez:
Have you tried changing the cable for the previously used magnetic link?

Do these other magnetic adapters charge other devices correctly?

The contacts of the adapters or in the cable may have worn out. A poor connection on the contacts results in less current flow.

Yes, I have tried different USB-C adaptors and cables but the charging rate is still extremely poor on the magnetic cable compared to the USB-C cable. I have attached two screen shots to compare the two readings.
