[Google Pixel 6a] Sumedh_:
The 6a and 7a are in the same boat when it comes to connectivity and getting warm.

The Samsung modem in these devices aren't as good as their modern SD counterparts.

And yes, disabling 5G boosts the battery-life and reduces the temp too. Using continuous Mobile data + keeping 5g on + living rural areas with poor signal connectivity is when you'll see that these devices get warm and start losing battery life quicker

Although, it's not overheating.

Btw, you'll face none of it if you're mostly on wifi. But you'll feel that using 5G data drains the battery a bit quicker and makes the phone warm irrespective of the signal/network strength.

Keeping 5G on drops the signal if you're away from the 5G towers resulting in more battery drain as the device constantly hunts for better signal/network.

If your usage is mostly around the above highlighted area, then you may consider skipping the Pixel's.
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
People need to stop using the term "overheat".... of course it doesn't "overheat". It just keeps throttling to deal with that. What it does do is get abnormally hot (unless any of you think a modern device should top 40c battery temps doing basic things in any weather) and drains battery abnormally fast when off WiFi.

Does it work? Of course. Is it a decent device? Sure. Would I ever buy one at full ($300+) price or recommend anyone else do the day? Zero chance.
[Google Pixel 6a] registradus:
I'm never on wifi, always on 5G, listen to podcasts all day. But yes, I am in a capital city.
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
And what kind of battery temps and life are you normally seeing?
[Google Pixel 6a] registradus:
temperature is around 30°C. charge the battery overnight and when I get home around 6pm it's usually at around 20%.
[Google Pixel 6a] sunshine_butterfly:
My pixel overheated(gave me messages) out of the box, it was very bad, i think I damaged my hands a bit. But I found out how to make this phone not turn into an oven.

On the first boot DO NOT INSERT SIMCARD AND ESPECIALLY USE LTE\3G\5G, let it update, download all the apps, update everything over wifi, only then insert sim card and use mobile internet. It still can get hot but never to the point of turning off features and being painful to hold

Also it seems overheating is connected to a gsm modem but Im constantly using hotspot and it is colder than my older phone(xiaomi 9c). Sometimes it heats up, and I have no idea why, sometimes it is cold? It can be hotter while charging, but it is not consistent. I cant figure out exact pattern. Only thing is that mobile data+any google play download = portable stove, any other download doesnt heating my phone at all, so I suspect heating is google services fault. I tried downloading through browser and fdroid, no heating at all.

Battery life is worse than xiaomi 9c, but acceptable.

My pixel is japanese version btw, maybe it is have something to do with that.

I didnt return it back only because of clean android and all necessary features are there for my work plus great camera. Maybe except dp support but I can live without it. Though I have low bar for phones, I didnt even consider to buy new phone until trying out more powerful xiaomi and apparently applications can work fast and open\switch almost without any delays.
[Google Pixel 6a] Lada333:
I think your device might have faulty hardware. Mine never had overheating issues (at least not to the point where I'd get a warning) out of the box, however I flashed a very early build of a ROM where my device would regularly overheat.
[Google Pixel 6a] Lada333:
I've also noticed it becoming questionably warm in the first week or so of usage, but then it settled down.

Do you use a fast charger?
[Google Pixel 6a] Lada333:
Yeah, then that explains why your device gets warm while charging -- especially if you use it while it's charging.

Side note: if you care about battery longevity (so basically if you plan on using your device for 3 or more years), I recommend you either get a slow charger (5-10 watts, any "old" 5V 1/2A charger will suffice) or you look into the ACC Magisk module.
[Google Pixel 6a] neysariy:
I bought it for a month and i love it. I never seen overheat yet even in 4k. First days when i put it to charger it got overheated but after few days it solved, i think because of "adaptive chargin". Battery a bit is bad but still acceptable. From 90 to 10 percent i got 8 hours screen time for average use, social media(insta, YouTube), searching web. Playing medium games

like clash of clans and some apps. I charge it once a day. I dont use mobile network too much i use almost always wifi. But i think connectivity has a bit problem it switchs beetween 3g and 4g and a bit hot, but not overheat.
[Google Pixel 6a] Zaxx32:
If ur cell sig is weak ur phone will use more batt thus be warmer and switch btw 3 and 4g. When sig is strong it shouldn't be as bad. If ur carrier allow voice over wifi (VoWifi), enabling it might help...not sure. All phones on A14 got a nice bump in batt life...about time imo.
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
When signal strength is low this is the worst device Ive ever seen for temps & battery life. With strong signal Id say its average (at best). On WiFi you can easily get 2 days out of it and it will barely get warm. The modems are the achilles heal of the 6 series.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] chronoloton:
Problem, the phone wont boot up but has data on it i want to recover before flashing a new rom.

-Bootloader unlocked

-I can access fastboot and adb shell

-ive flashed twrp sucessfully

I tried to make a backup immediatly. It failed and gave me an error that i dont have enough space. my computer confirmed that it was 99% full. i tried deleting the failed backup. it wouldnt stop loading and twrp basically froze. after a few hours i decided to reboot and try again. twrp was gone and i had to flash it again. but now it wont get past the teamwin logo when booting into recovery. when i try using the "fastboot boot twrp.img" i get an error telling me "FAILED (Status read failed (Too many links)".

When googling or that i often read that its a data transfer issue so i assume the internal storage being completely blocked by failed backups is the reason i cant send the twrp file. How can i delete those broken backups? ive tried find commands in adb shell to find the twrp folder but it always gives me "cant find or doesnt exist" errors
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Renate:
Just to clarify, the actual error is "USB device not responding".

The stupid links junk is just interpreting a Windows system error as a Linux system error.

This is a long standing error from Google on fastboot and adb.

Your device is disconnecting or never connecting.

Hi.

I have an acer betouch e101 device, but it has not a battery. I used a Nokia bl-5c battery. connectors are reversed so I had to reverse + and - to use it (removed back plate of phone to fit the battery). phone display shows acer logo, but yellow notification light appears and then phone turns off. Charging didn't help. How can I get a new battery? (Original battery is not available in my country)

here is a photo of a bl-5c and phone connectors.

thank you.
[General Accessories] Renate:
You connected up a battery with the polarity reversed???

Doing stuff like that blows stuff up.

For anybody thinking of doing something similar:

It's easy enough to check with a DVM which pin on the motherboard is ground.

It's easy enough to check with a DVM the polarity of the battery (if it's not marked).

There could be three possibilities here:

You already blew up some necessary power management circuitry

You already blew up some necessary thermistor and/or ID pin circuitry

The thermistor and/or ID pin on the Nokia battery is not compatible

Do you even have a DVM?

Hi! I recently got a Samsung Galaxy J5 2015 that had contact with Water since 2019! The phone did not show any signs of life, but the battery seems to charge but nothing on screen? How do I know this? I have a J3 2016 and their batteries are the EXACT SAME, so letting the J5 charge, when its battery has been placed in the J3, it was on 20%, before charge it was o 0% ofc.

I want to see if I can save this phone, but I don't think so.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saaiqmunawar:
Hello, I have a samsung note 10.1 GT-N810 and its been bricked for 10 years and finally a couple of months ago in around December time I found it and I decided to fix it. So far from December up until March I was making progress but one day my laptop decided not to recognise the USB charger for my tablet and ever since I Couldn't get it to work I even bought some USB adapters to work on my laptop and I tested other devices on the laptop with AND without the adapters and they worked. I did some research and Google said to update my laptop drivers so I went searching for Samsung drivers and I found them so I updated them on my laptop but that didn't do the trick, keep in mind the USB charger charges the tablet but doesn't connect to the laptop I've been trying ever since to make the charger work on my laptop. I'm surprised I even have the will to continuously retry again and again so I'm hoping there are people out there that can help me.

Hello Experts,

I am trying to flash lineage-14.1 on my USA ATT Samsung Galaxy 3 (d2att).

Since all the ooficial links of lineage-14.1 are dead. I downloaded an unofficial one from (https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=8889791610682944999)

Flashing completed fine without any errors. But after reboot, during initial setup, it did not detected SIM card. After completing setup, I was able to connect to wifi. But it still showed No SIM Card.

I tried following https://xdaforums.com/t/no-sim-detected-on-lineageos-14-1.3758706/

"

It is easy to recover.. Your Nv ram file is damaged while flashing.

Steps

1- Get ur phone rooted

2- By using root explorer (I prefer ES file explorer) Delete the /nvram or /nvdata folder. (I advice you to keep a copy).

3- Wait for 10 sec. And restart your explorer. If your sim is detected then it's good . If still not then go to /nvdata/md/NVRAM/NVD_IMEI

4- Delete the MP0B_001 file.

5- Wait for 10 sec and reboot your phone.

"

There is no /nvram or /nvdata folder in my phone.Even if I create one and reboot , still same issue.

I tried following - https://android.stackexchange.com/questions/227011/sim-card-not-detected-on-lineage-os

Flash Lineage OS recovery

Install Lineage OS (all with SIM inserted)

After install, boot into the system. SIM won't be detected at this point

Go back to the recovery mode (Vol. Down + Power for several minutes)

Format cache data ONLY

Boot back into the OS. Sometimes the SIM will start working even at this point but if not, just do a factory data reset now (initiated from the OS settings) and the SIM will be working perfectly

Followed these steps too.. Same issue.

After 3 days of troubleshooting, eventually I had to restore it from backup to Android 4.1.1 (stock Att rom with root)

And SIM works fine without doing anything special.

I know this is an old phone but I would appreciate if anyone have a solution for this.

one thing to note that power and volume button are not functioning on my phone. I use "Quick Reboot" app to boot into recovery for flashing rom.

Not sure if that can be an issue. I read on some forums that you need to power off phone first. And then boot into recovery by holding power + home + volume up key.

I won't be able to boot into recovery via buttons.

Thanks in Advance

In Working scenario, this is my setup

Model - Samsung-SGH-I747

Android Version - 4.1.1

Baseband Version - I747UCDLK3

Bootloader Version - I747UCDLK3 (Checked via getprop ro.bootloader)

Modem Version - ??? (Not sure how to check / verify)

I guess I have to flash bootloader / modem first before trying Lineage OS.

Is there a particular path / version upgrade I need to follow ? Form another thread I saw -

"Order of updates for D2ATT: MJB>NE4>NJ1>NJ2"

Do I have to upgrade to MJB then NE4 and so on ?

Can I go directly to NJ2 or latest one ?
