[Xiaomi 14 Ultra] the_alchemis7:
Possibly, other things iv changed

Colour profile to original pro and turned off auto brightness and kept brightness to around 50% (been indoors mainly today)

Previously the battery percentage was like a countdown ticker now atleast it's staying at the percentage for a while

5hrs 10mins 78% around 2.5hrs screen on,

And it's running alot cooler
[Xiaomi 14 Ultra] gadomido:
Horrible battery life . I am thinking of returning it .
[Xiaomi 14 Ultra] Dummen:
Chinese or Global/EU version You have? I have the Chinese version and with Chinese rom it was terrible in terms of battery(standby drain) and also heating like a space heater. With EU rom its waaaaaay better like normal phones, it is hard to kill the battery and the heating issue is also better for me.
[Xiaomi 14 Ultra] the_alchemis7:
Global/EU version

Phone seems more stable after some tweaks still needs OS improvements in believe with updates maybe
[Xiaomi 14 Ultra] Dummen:
Im on 1.0.5.0.UNAEUXM its pretty good for battery life.
[Xiaomi 14 Ultra] the_alchemis7:
Same but mine seems to drain alot
[Xiaomi 14 Ultra] veimus:

On mine I can't see screen on time remaining

I'm using global rom 1.0.5

Accu battery says 5hrs screen on time

Hyperos says around 27.5 hours remaining
[Xiaomi 14 Ultra] the_alchemis7:
Is yours the China variant or global and also when you set up the phone did you copy apps or set up fresh?
[Xiaomi 14 Ultra] the_alchemis7:
After fully restricting the stock gallery app the sot seems to have improved massively, gallery was drawing between 30-48%/HR,

Accu battery estimate shot up from 5hrs to 10+
[Xiaomi 14 Ultra] eng3:
Yes, for some reason gallery and camera use up tons of battery
[Xiaomi 14 Ultra] veimus:
@the_alchemis7 @eng3 did you sign-in to Xiaomi account ?
[Xiaomi 14 Ultra] the_alchemis7:
Yeah I did, how comes?
[Xiaomi 14 Ultra] veimus:
Maybe it's sync your photos & video to Xiaomi cloud ?
[Xiaomi 14 Ultra] veimus:
I installed Accu Battery yesterday at around 40% battery, it's 26% now. Base on the app, my usage seams normal ?

Still need to fully charge battery and discharge so the app will give more accurate stats..

[Xiaomi 14 Ultra] the_alchemis7:
My SOT has shot up to 10hrs

My gallery app was draining alot of battery restricted that I charged to 100% 4hours of screen off time later still at 100%

It's been quite good atm
[Xiaomi 14 Ultra] jdmvette:
i work 12hr shifts. which equates to ~ 13.5hrs of phone use. i stream and listen to podcasts, watch occasional vids and do a little light gaming during this time.

my 1st week of 14U ownership i found the above activities were killing the battery life so much that i would need to charge the phone at least once before the end of the day. as someone who just came from a XIaomi 14 Pro (which would last until the time i returned home,) i was very disappointed.

i am pleased to say that with roughly the same amount of usage over the same amount of time, my 2nd week of 14U use has shown significant increases to battery life and i am able to finish my ~13.5hrs with ~35-40% of battery life remaining.

i am not sure what has changed but it seems that whatever was draining the phone during the 1st week has settled down and the battery life is at least as good as my 14P was.
[Xiaomi 14 Ultra] hollabizack12:
For me terrible battery life as well, if I didn't pay a lot of money for this phone I would be laughing at it. 4 hours sot indoor on WiFi is the absolute max I'm able to squeeze out of this thing. Mind you this is after debloating the f out of it too! Camera is using so much battery it's insane. I did had a mi 11 ultra which I sold because of the same problem. Anyway I will keep it for a few days to see if it improves after settling in, but im not very hopefull. I have a glob version by the way. Running global rom. Funny thing is, and other people have this too, accu battery actually reports a battery capacity of 5300 mAh. Should be 5000 since its global but there you go. Super weird right!
[Xiaomi 14 Ultra] the_alchemis7:
It definitely improved after a few days,

Try going to camera and gallery app details in settings and restrict background activity

I also updated gallery app from hyperos updates to the Chinese rom one I have a EU phone that also seemed to help

But the battery has been weird, at night I got 5% drain sometimes I'll get 2% drain,

Sometimes it'll give me 10 hours SOT but usually averages 8.5hrs, with heavy camera use then it can easily be 5hrs.

They definitely need to up their update game to fix these especially EU/global side.
[Xiaomi 14 Ultra] hollabizack12:
Well there's stil hope for me since you're able to get to 8 hours sot, that would be fine for me!

I just re-installed the gallery app myself so I will see if that improves anything. I'm straining my battery to zero right now and then charging it. Maybe that will help as well.

Standby drain of 2% or even 5 is very good imo. My s24 ultra has a higher drain.

Well let's hope it all improves with a update, but I'm not really counting on it. Xiaomi isn't really known for it.
[Xiaomi 14 Ultra] eng3:
I'm getting similar times. About 9hrs of light use. Much less with camera. It can be hard to pinpoint what is draining. Sure for Apps it is relatively easy, but it is hard to know how much various settings might affect battery. In the optimizer it will actually list how much time you will save by killing apps, changing settings, etc but I don't find it all too accurate. It doesn't list many other settings (ie. prefer 4g vs 5g, screen resolution, color profiles, etc) and their affect.
[Xiaomi 14 Ultra] Bobuncle:
I have this for 3 weeks, battery time is ridiculous while using it normal way, chatting on Viber, YouTube on background, and using Chrome. It last 8 hrs max. I resetted the phone twice, no matter what it won't last 22 hrs what test shows.
[Xiaomi 14 Ultra] olafsand:
Less than week old. Capacity is absolutely wrong?
[Realme 7 Pro Questions & Answers] #Aditya negi:
Hi everyone,

I am currently using Project elixer(Android 14) and facing several problems with it.

I wanted to know if i can maybe downgrade to an earlier android version like 13 or 12 or even 11 for that matter. Has anyone tried it? If so, how to go about it?
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SamVVaeck:
Hey all!

I'm in a bit of pickle, because this morning I woke up but my Oneplus One did not do the same any more. I would like to get it back to life for its upcoming 10th birthday!

I have some knowhow and an iFixit kit, but I would like to check if my conclusions are correct and my phone is not repairable any more. Here is what I already tried:

I opened up the back cover and detached the battery ribbon. Hooking up a multimeter to test the voltage on the battery p+ and p- pins shows a voltage of 4.1 volt. I cannot find online what this voltage should be?

There are 4 metal contact pads underneath the port for the battery ribbon. When i plug in my charging cable into the phone, put one of the probes of the multimeter on a metal ground surface and put the other probe on the left most contact pad it shows a voltage of 5.1V coming into the phone. This reading is the same no matter if the battery plugged in at the same time or not (I can reach the contact pad underneath the battery flex cable)

When putting a power meter between the charging brick and the wall and plugging in the phone, the phone does not draw any Ampere however. I also have a power brick that has a little reading on a screen on it, when using that brick it fluctuates a little while between about 5.1 and 0.3 after which it settles on 0.3. I'm not sure of the unit of this number (maybe watts?). This seems to indicate that it is not charging.

When i press any of the button combinations (power, power+volumeUP, power+volumeDOWN) the phone does absolutely nothing and even if i press a combination and then plug it into a computer it does nothing.

When I plug it in on a computer originally it was not recognised. At some point in my testing i managed to get it recognised in Windows 10 as "QHUSB_BULK". Then i tried installing ADB and Qualcomm stuff, but i don't really understand that part and screwed up the install i'm afraid. Now it just gives the "USB device not recognised" popup when i plug it in.

I ordered a replacement charging flex cable from AliExpress to see if that fixes the not charging problem.

But does any of you know more and think it might be the motherboard that died on me overnight? My phone was just lying next to me on my desk.

Thank you for reading all of this!
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SamVVaeck:
Oh and i wasn't running any special software or anything. Just the regular Lineage OS port.
[General Questions and Answers] huetherb:
Hi, I have an app on my phone for my online bank. When I go on the bank website it says that soon users of the old version of the app will no longer have access to their online account. As part of installing the new version, you are supposed to have available some image that came with the first welcome packet that the bank sent. I received that packet probably in 2014 and don't have it anymore. The bank can only resend the packet to my address in Germany, but I won't be in Germany for about a year. They don't do anything online as far as sending info.

I really need this app update working without having to spend thousands of dollars to take a trip to Germany.

I am not a developer, but I am technical minded. Some years back I experiemented with hacking, recall setting up a debugger, HEX editor, stepping through code and finding branch statements to invert. I suppose here it would be similar? At some point in code there will be a check of the scanned graphic, so I would need to find the point where that check occurs. Ok, easier said than done, but just trying to get a sense for how tough this might be.

thanks
[General Questions and Answers] e1rson:
Recently my old Galaxy S9 running Android 8 decided it was time to retire. (It did not consult me first and I'm a bit salty about it.) I've spent the past week trying to get an S23 running Android 14 to work the way I'd like. I've been mostly successful with one exception (though I'd still like to send Material You and it's ****ing pastels into the sun)

10.0.0.0.1 192.168.1.254

On my old phone, a long press to the home button would wake up my screen. On the new one it pops up a message telling me to turn on Google Assistant, which I am absolutely never going to do. Is there any way to get the old behavior back? I've searched and found a lot of tutorials showing me how to turn on this behavior, but nothing about turning it off. If I can't wake up my screen this way I'll get over it, but I'd really really like to get rid of the popup.

Running Nova Launcher, if that helps
[OnePlus 12] SerkanTer:
Hello guys,

I have the choice between buying the OnePlus 12 in the 12gb and 256gb storage variant or preferring to buy the 16gb and 512gb storage variant. I pay €100 for the extra charge. I wanted to ask if 16gb is worth it or should I just buy the 12gb. I need your advice. I mean the S24U only has 12gb ram. how much ram do you need and what makes sense?
[OnePlus 12] DocSnyder75:
12GB are enough for now ...
[OnePlus 12] xtcislove:
I would not think too much about 12gb vs 16gb. But 512gb vs 256gb is another deal. If you can put it to use, 100€ for 256gb extra is a good deal.
[OnePlus 12] Veiranx:
It wouldn't be nearly so bad if we still had microSD card slots to offload a lot of the storage needs from the main storage. Sure, it's not nearly as fast, but many of the things that take up storage don't typically need that much speed.
[OnePlus 12] passionicon:
16gb/512gb
[OnePlus 12] Radulfr:
It may be overkill but id rather more RAM than not enough ram
[OnePlus 12] galaxys:
Go 16gb/512gb for future proof and better resale later!📱📲
[OnePlus 12] soundgirl101:
The old adage still proves true, "Go big, or go home!!"
[OnePlus 12] HellsDelight:
As I had the OnePlus 7 Pro before with 256GB I chose the OP12 with 16/512GB mainly for storage. Also the upgrade was "just" around 60 EUR more as I bought it directly at OPPO China.

12GB RAM is still enough but the storage space can fill up more quickly depending on what you do. If more reliant to streaming/cloud services then 256GB is still fine. Most other new phones like the Google Pixel 8 still start with 128GB (and 8GB RAM) so I was glad OP12 starts with a minimum of 256GB already instead.
[OnePlus 12] flandolf:
I have the 24gb/1tb version (got for US$800), it is defo overkill with android not taking up half the RAM avaliable.
[OnePlus 12] lloydsw:
An interesting fact: since OP discounts the 'heavier' models on launch, they offer less on trade-in compared to the lower end. Ask me how I know....
[OnePlus 12] zSyntex:
The 16/512GB is the top one at the moment.

While in the past years we got more RAM with less ROM, now if we want the best we should take this configuration.

For 100€ it's pretty good, there's no overcharging

The 24GB/1TB isn't available for all the market, so I don't consider it as a choice (it's a niche configuration)
[OnePlus 12] Guyinlaca:
512 GB/ 16 GB RAM is the way to go, especially if you plan to keep it for awhile.

[FYT Android Head Units] Ragpuss:
Hi all,

My head unit doesn't have an external microphone output and as we all know the internal mic' is terrible.

I have seen posts to add an external but those units seem to already have the socket or port fitted.

Is there a way to retro fit an external microphone port to the FYT units and also to disable the internal one ?

Any links / diagrams would be very much appreciated

Thank you.
[FYT Android Head Units] j0hn83:
It depends what model you have as some are different to others.

In general though most of the 7862 units without a dedicated mic port have external mic support through the 20 pin adapter on the rear. Pins 19 and 20 are usually mic- mic+.

The 20 pin adapter is the 1 with all the rca and the sim card.

Check your 20 pin adapter and see if it has a mic input on it. If not you may simply be able to buy 1, depending on your unit.

Most of the units the internal mic can't be disabled via software and need you to open the unit and cut 2 circuit tracks or tape off 2 pins on a very small ribbon cable.

Newer motherboard versions don't have this issue.
[FYT Android Head Units] Ragpuss:
I have a 7862S 64gb / 4gb vertical 10" unit it is specific to the Jaguar XF 2012 to 2015 models, I would assume that the board is just standard though.

I do need to remove my unit to check for another upgrade so I will check this at the same time. It is a complete pain removing the Tesla style unit on my XF so I would like to do any upgrades at the same time hence asking about the external microphone.

Thank you for the advice and fingers crossed I have the pins as you mentioned :)
[FYT Android Head Units] binary_boy01:
Hello,

One of my friends, did a removal of internal microphone and instead of it soldered a cable with a 3.5 jack, where plugged a mic. He told me none of his callers ever complained about call quality.

Even though the "PixelFlasher" utility has the word "Pixel" in its name, it is said to be able to also work with multiple other devices.

It's funny that you say it is said to be able to also work with multiple other devices, but the op from the link you attached clearly says "As the name suggests this is an application to flash (update) Pixel™ phones (possibly all Google™ made phones/tablets, YMMV.)" and unless the Nothing Phone 2 was made by google, I don't see why you'd even try to use it.
[Nothing Phone 2] HippoMan:
Oh, so the OP is therefore out of date. The developer has said that it indeed can work with other devices.

That's why I'm asking here. I will now also ask in the PixelFlasher thread.
[Nothing Phone 2] HippoMan:
The developer of PixelFlasher did some tests, and he now confirms that it should work on the Nothing 2.

The next time I upgrade my Nothing 2 device, I'll try it and report my findings here.

[OnePlus 12R / OnePlus Ace 3] dood6017:
Noticed with my 12r that OnePlus is still doing JPG screenshots instead of PNG. I know there used to be a Magisk module for the 5t, and there OPLongshotXposed exists, but neither work for OxygenOS 14. I tried porting OPLongshotXposed but i'm too noob to reverse engineer the proper function.

I found that if you disable the built in com.oplus.screenshot app, it falls back to the AOSP screenshot tool instead. This does mean the screenshot editor is slightly more clunky, however screenshots are now PNG.

1. Go to Settings > Apps > App Management

2. Click the 3 Dots at the top right and click "Show System"

3. Search "Screenshot"

4. Select "Screenshot" and click Disable

Now, screenshots are handled by the AOSP screenshot and will be saved as PNG
[OnePlus 12R / OnePlus Ace 3] dood6017:
Found with a bit more searching the LuckyTool Xposed module, despite being meant for ColorOS works fine on Oxygen and has an option to force PNG. Though my original method still stands, as LuckyTool is root only.

Hey everyone,

I'm running Pandora's Naked 6 rom on my unlocked Jasjam on the T-Mobile network.

I have this problem that occurs periodically when I open my standard messaging app: after about 5 seconds the whole app closes on me no matter what I do, whether it be composing an email, reading a sms; it just closes. Now, whenever I run the messaging app my device attempts to connect to "T-Mo MMS" to probably check for new mms messages to download from the server or something. Maybe it can't connect for some reason so it closes?

However, when I'm connected to a wi-fi network the messaging app behaves as it should with no problems. This happens on and off and is really getting aggravating b/c i can't read any messages unless i'm connected to a wi-fi network. I've checked and re-checked "My ISP" settings under connections multiple times but it has not helped.

Any Ideas?

Thanks!

[General Questions and Answers] Boxatrix:
Hello All, I hope that someone can help me with this query. I recently purchased an Android Head unit which I thought was a Mekede/Navifly M700s 8+128GB model.

I've been having trouble with the units' operation which was initially making and receiving calls via bluetooth. The call volume would be really low and crackly. It sounded like it was an old transistor radio. Other problems were that it wouldn't be visible to visible via bluetooth to other bluetooth devices. Some of the parameters and settings couldn't be changed such as the lantern settings for he colour illumination of the buttons. The bluetooth audio settings couldn't be changed ie codec, sample rate etc.

I contacted Mekede's support and they sent me an updated firmware which I installed. Unfortunately that didn't work so they asked me for the lable on the back of the unit. After sending this to them they responded saying the unit wasn't one of theirs.

The label on the unit had the following information : TL-7862/8+128G CP/720. I've tried to identify the unit from this information but haven't been successful.

I purchased the unit from OnBuy who was selling it on behalf on Moonhaven and it was listed as an M700's. It's obviously not a Mekede and need the correct updated and correct firmware for it !

Can anyone help me with this ?View attachment 6086690
