[Samsung Galaxy S23] blackhawk:
Adaptive battery is global power management. To verify it's on: Developer options>standby apps, the app bucket states will be varied if it on ie active, frequently, rarely etc.

When off they will always show as active and you can not change the bucket state (it seems to take but after a refresh it hasn't).

This lame feature never worked and uses much more battery than if the the device is hand optimized. It can cause erratic behaviors.

If you deal with the power hog correctly the results are apparent within hours not days or weeks. Lol, Gookill tends to get more stupid over time, not smarter🤣 That said hand optimizing takes time but the results are much better and yield a substantial increase in SOT, standby time as well as a snappier, cooler running device.

Optimizing is somewhat trial and error at first and a bit tricky. It eventually becomes almost second nature. This N10+ was a stuttering hot running power hog before it was optimized, now it runs like a bat out of hell. Try temporarily disabling Google play Services and see what that does. Gmail, Playstore and Google backup Transport are dependencies, simply turn on if needed. Kill the notifications for too so it doesn't nag you constantly. See if that helps your issues.

Use Device Care>memory>optimize. Install SD Maid Pro to do more clean up, it's a very useful app. A logging firewall can be very useful for tracking down issues, lets you see what's being busy in the background using data and resources.

com.google.android.providers.media.module, interesting. Apparently it's caused trouble going back to 2011 from time to time. It's a needed service. Go through all the Google account settings. It's good to explore all setting options anyway. Maybe try clearing the Media Storage app cache and check the settings.

I'm more clueless than you why this happening.

Maybe someone here knows why it's puking on you. Otherwise play with it, eventually you'll track the cause down but it may take a while.

If you're in the US you could go to a Samsung Experience center at best buy; they allegedly can run advanced diagnostic tests on it.
[Samsung Galaxy S23] guile50:
All my apps are active and i cannot flick the switch so i guess it's off. i turned adaptive battery off on battery and device care > battery > more battery settings.

While i'm aware of some optimization techniques, it's been so long since I actually felt the need to tweak something it's actually surreal. My two previous phones were a Mi A2 and a N20U (for almost three years), and I didn't mess around for basically nothing. they ran absolutely fine, I thought my XDA days were gone :ROFLMAO:

But anyways, I did the following: After updating the firmware, I disabled and cleaned the media provider app cache and cleaned the system cache. The phone got immediately snappier, but some of the crashes were still happening. I ruled the Whatsapp crashes to a faulty backup, since I noticed it happened when I open certain chats. idk how to fix this so I just deleted the chat; the com.google.android.providers.media.module crash count went down from 10 to 4 on my two last battery cycles. Something is still crashing, but possibly in the background. I'll keep monitoring it.

Is there any other thread that shows the ropes of optimizing samsung devices aside from this one?
[Samsung Galaxy S23] blackhawk:
WhatsApp... ditch the trashware. An unstable OS can end up turning into a boot loop very quickly.

Any app that's misbehaving and can't be sorted out gets uninstalled or package disabled.

Find and correct the root cause(s).

All I ever played with are Samsung's and all needed to be optimized. There are numerous posts I've made of it but you see my post count; even I be hard pressed to ferret them all out.

I've thought about starting a thread but I run 9 and 10, plus I have mine configured to my device and needs. So what works well for me may be useless to others. It's a steep learning curve that works best if you learn the what's and why's rather than blindly implementing someone else's list. Eventually you get a feel for it by playing with it. That comes in handy when

Other than Package Disabler I deal with everything through the UI settings, and with 3rd party add ons; no adb edits. The result is a very stable stock Samsung that runs well and a very long lived load. I block upgrades and updates; these can and do break Samsung's so I have learned and waste my time trying to fix the mess they make.
[Samsung Galaxy S23] Me Gusta:
Jesus, do you have any apps on your phone? Shouldn't you just get a nokia 3310 at this point?

You bash every feature of a smartphone that makes it smart.

No apps, no software update, no features, no fun. Try living in the woods completely off the grid. Seems more up your alley.

@Rod F

OneUI has a bug. I used to see app crashing pop-ups quite frequently during the initial period on my S22U. The same build and version of apps ran absolutely fine on my other devices, which too were running on the same Android version as my S22U.

Over time, due to optimisations and updates from Samsung, the number of such pop-ups have reduced to almost none now.
[Samsung Galaxy S23] Me Gusta:
Like I said. You should get a Nokia 3310.
[Samsung Galaxy S23] TheMystic:
GDPR happened because someone raised the issue and created awareness. Although it is only a first step, but that too wouldn't have happened if he had just decided to get the Nokia 3310.

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Untouchab1e:
Hi!

I use my Touch Pro quite a bit for music and I use my regular 3,5mm headphones along with an HTC adapter. Only thing that is really bothering me is that when I plug them in and start playing music, the volume is loud as freaking hell! I have it on max when I use the phone normally, and when I plug in my headphones I wish I didnt have to always remember to adjust the volume before playing music and adjusting it back up again when I'm done.

Anyone know of a smart tweak or way to fix this?

Cheers!
[Samsung Galaxy S23] Rod F:
I'm a new Samsung S23+ owner. I bought my S23+ a week ago.

An odd behavior I've noticed is with the button to display all currently running apps. I don't know what it's called; it's on the bottom of the window next to the Home button. It looks like 3 vertical bars. Anyway, I've noticed that if I've only running two or three apps, pressing that button does nothing. I'm used to always seeing all running apps, when I press that button on my old S10. If I've got a half dozen apps running, then it works as I expect it to work. However, I always want it to work.

What's going on? Is there anything I can do about this?
[Samsung Galaxy S23] blackhawk:
Welcome to XDA.

Try clearing the system cache.

Try this, go to the Samsung Galaxy Store, download the Good Lock family of apps.

You'll especially want Quickstar and in this case Task Changer.

See if this helps.

[Samsung Galaxy S23] Morak75:
Funny. It just happened to me for the first time rn (with 3 buttons gesture). I just had to press the home button then it was working again.
[Samsung Galaxy S23] blackhawk:
Sometimes there are weird glitches that don't really mean anything if they don't persist or reappear after a reboot or clearing the system cache.

After almost 3 years on the same load I saw the display page indicator displaying an extra "o+o" after the correct home and second page. There was nothing there as far as another page. Played with homepage settings and tried to delete the phantom page, cleared Samsung One UI Experience cache, still there. More curious than panicked. Finally clearing the system cache or the roboot got rid of the anomaly never to reappear.

It's when you see the noticable system lagging that you have a potentially severe problem that could quickly turn onto a crash even a boot loop. Often the only warning you get.
[Samsung Galaxy S23] Rod F:
I haven't tried that. The next time I encounter that behavior, I'll try tapping the Home button, then the 3 buttons. Thank you1
[General Questions and Answers] KakoFed:
Hello, I have a Doogee S59 pro phone and I wanted to root it to install some magisk modules. I unlocked the bootloader successfully, but now I am trying to root my phone using magisk. I patched a boot.img file from the Doogee s59 pro firmware that I found somewhere (it wasn't easy to find because it isn't a known phone) and I tried to flash it via ADB, but it didn't work. I went into the fastboot mode (it is saying "fastbootd" actually), and I typed

fastboot devices

That worked, my phone was listed, but after that I tried to flash the patched boot.img file using this command:

fastboot flash boot <the file directory>

And also

fastboot boot <the file directory>

Both commands didn't work. It was saying:

warning: skip copying boot image avb footer (boot partition size: 0, boot image size: 33554432).
sending 'boot' (32768 kb) failed (write to device failed (no link)) fastboot: error: command failed

Something like this.

What am I doing wrong?

Please help
[Samsung Galaxy S23] pesa44:
Hi guys, I have rooted S23 base 8/256gb EUX SM-S911B/DS firmware version S911BXXU1AWA6 and I'd like to update to S911BXXU1AWBD firmware version, a new update released a couple of days ago.

I was used to downloading full update package, push manually update through software updater, extract the boot.img, patch it through magisk and flash it through pc to have root after update (no data lost while updating).

Will this work for me on S23? I was using OnePlus 7T before. Or do I have to use Odin to update? (If yes, will I loose my data?)

I'm not quite familiar with Odin tool so I want to be sure. If flashing that patched extracted boot.img won't work I can try installing the TWRP released few days ago in order to root my device, I just want to know how to safely update without loosing my data or bricking the device.

I let my device root by Oneclickroot day after release cause there wasn't any verified safe way to root it myself but when there is now, I'd like to do it myself to safe some money.

THX for any advice
[Samsung Galaxy S23] Ramme:
if you still have about 1 - 2 days time I can tell you how it goes with Odin. I also switched from Oneplus to Samsung and will also do it the first time, but I'm still waiting for the update from today in Germany.
[Samsung Galaxy S23] tutibreaker:

[MDA Compact II General] Renegade1904:
I have upgraded my ROM on a few occasions due to corruption issues etc. This time, unfortunately, I hada power cut halfway through the WWE T-Mobile standard ROM. So now, my Charmer just sits on the T-Mobile Bootscreen showing: IPL 3.08.0001

SPL 3.08.0001

GSM 02.69.21

OS 4.0.0.0

I have been trying for two days to enter bootloader but to no avail. All I can do is the hardreset, but all I am left with each time is the frozen T-Mobile screen with the above numbers. I cannot even get my XP PC to recognise the device. I am guessing that the ROM is horribly corrupted, but is it U/S (Bricked). Any suggestions would be welcome. It is well out of warranty and I live in the wilds of West Wales in the Uk and there is no repair shop within reasonable distance.

Is there a method to rebuild/or even the enter the bootloader so I can re-flash ROM? Is there somebody on here who could do it for me (for a fee of course). I would be most grateful for any help..
[MDA Compact II General] Nokia 3650:
Easy Soloution

You can do the SDcard method.

You'd have to take a Working Charmer, connected to a terminal program (such as Mtty.exe)

You'd then execute the command "r2sd all".

This comand backs up EVERYTHING to the inserted SD card (must be 64MB or greater for this to work) (warning: this will also delete whats on the card, as it will be a RAW write).

You'd then stick the card in YOUR Charmer, and attempt to go into bootloader again. You'll then get the magic prompt to press the button to flash from the SDcard.

Problem solved.
[MDA Compact II General] Renegade1904:
Thanks for your reply. I do not have a working charmer and I am not sure if the SD Card slot works any more. Is it true that if I leave the battery out for a few days to let the internal battery run down that will allow me to enter bootloader.? Is SD card installation the only way to go for my Charmer?? Thanks in advance..
[MDA Compact II General] Nokia 3650:
If you leave the battery out for 20 minutes, then the internal battery will be drained (until its dead), but it won't fix your issue with the bootloader. It'll only seem like just another hard-reset.

[Moto G Power Questions & Answers] Murf13:
Hello. For 3 years I had a Moto G Power and never had an issue with the SD card not being recognized.

Two months ago I upgraded to the Moto G Power (2022) and had no issues with the SD card .... until a month ago when the phone did an automatic update from Android version 11 to version 12.

And my current software is S3RQ32.20-42-10-9

Since then my phone will just suddenly not recognize my SD card. And I never save pictures on my phone. I have the camera set for all pictures to go on the SD card.

Thankfully the phone recognizes the SD card if I restart. But I should not have to restart my phone so many times now!!

Is anyone else having this issue? Can I go back to Android version 11?

Thank you.

is by downloading x1 tweak that has an option to automatically switch all names to first, last, that and has many more useful x1 tweaks
