[General Questions and Answers] dedq:
Hey everyone,

I have been exploring various applications over the past few years, testing them out and examining their effects through periods of use and non-use. In particular, my focus has centered on Greenify as the primary choice, along with Brevent, Naptime, and other applications that manage the background behavior of other apps.

Currently, I am on the Samsung S24 Ultra on One UI 6.1, and despite the advanced features of the device, I continue to experience significant advantages from using Greenify. This has prompted me to ponder the reasons behind the reason why people don't generally suggest them.

Are applications such as Greenify and Brevent essentially performing tasks akin to Android's built-in functionality by placing applications in a state of suspension or deactivating them as needed?

Thank you
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
Yes, applications like Greenify, Brevent, NapTime and alike offer functionalities similar to Android's built-in app suspension or deactivation. These third-party apps provide more granular control over app behavior. They can put apps in a deeper sleep state, restricting background activities and resource usage more aggressively than the built-in Android Doze mode.
[General Questions and Answers] dedq:
Do certain applications introduce novel mechanisms, or do they primarily leverage Android's existing capabilities, albeit in a more optimized manner and triggered only when required?

[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
Greenify, Brevent, NapTime and similar apps don't introduce entirely new mechanisms for app suspension, they primarily leverage Android's existing capabilities for app suspension and deactivation, but with a twist:

These apps rely on Android's built-in Doze mode and App Standby functionality to put apps in a low-power state. Doze mode restricts background activity for inactive devices, while App Standby limits resource usage for apps depending on usage frequency.

What sets these apps apart is their ability to offer more granular control. They can push apps into a deeper sleep state compared to the base Android functionalities. This can involve further restricting background processes, network access, and location services.

These apps often introduce automation features. They can identify app usage patterns and automatically put rarely used apps into a sleep state when not actively in use. This can be more efficient than manually managing Doze mode or App Standby on a per-app basis.

[FYT Android Head Units] predestruction1:
Hello Guys, i hope i am in the right Forum for FYT devices.

I recently bought an M7 from Mekede with a 7870 Chipset. and a RCZ Raise Canbusbox.

Before that i had a PX5 Eonon Headunit, so i am not completely new to Android Headunits.

I have a Mazda 6 GH (2nd Gen) with an Infodisplay, where you can select and check Fuelconsumption, Range or display the Clock, aswell as changing temperature of the AC.

I selected my Car in the Canbus Settings RZC Raise/Mazda/6/19200 or something very similiar and the buttons for Noise and Song selection work.

Unfortunatly the Button for going into the Menu of the Infotainment Display isnt working as it should. Instead of going into the Infotainment, it just switches between the Audio Source meaning Radio, BT Audio, and Car player in a circle.

My old PX5 Unit worked and i was able to control the Infotainment Display.

Additionally the Button remapping App isnt working at all.
[FYT Android Head Units] Matt Devo:
use the CAN box from the PX5?

the FYT button remapping is only for analog steering wheel controls, not CAN ones. Why not? who knows, other vendors have figured it out.
[FYT Android Head Units] predestruction1:
It doesnt work, probably because the PIN Layout is different. There are more used Pins for the Cables of the PX5 unit, then for the 7870 and the Positions are different aswell.

And i cant use the old harness, because the Connector into the Headunit is different.

Edit: Also my car isnt available in the Selection of the Canbus Protocol for the SS(Simply/Xi...)

Hi all

No banking apps is working for me no matter what i tried

See my setup and plz guide me, I'm at the point of unistalling root

Mods plz if this is not the currect fourm plz move it

Thanks
[Magisk] JazonX:
From What I can see on your screenshots, These are working with MagiskHide and Shamiko.

I tested on Magisk Alpha, Same Shamiko version and on a Samsung with ONE UI 6.1.

I had a similar situation where suddenly all apps started detecting root, at such times a Magisk cleanup helps.

Just get the Magisk APK, rename it to uninstall.zip and flash via TWRP. If no TWRP, use the Magisk Uninstall option.

Then start the Magisk related work from scratch.

Good Luck!
[Magisk] awzx:
This is a fresh installation! 3 days ago I formatted and re flashed

I made a progress with the blue **** app, I removed Game Guardian and it now shows a new page but still keeps crashing,

I'll try more, FYI, There's a banking app that's works whenever I disabled the Zygisk
[Magisk] awzx:
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck I finally fix it!!!

Simply Use HMA, and hide ALL APPS that is suspicious or not official or chinese or do modification to system.

I have 200 apps, 65 of them are hidden! as easy as it sound!
[Magisk] JazonX:
I never used HMA. It's a hassle and not really needed - unless in your case some app was triggering it.

Glad it worked out in the end.

Cheers!
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] sans400:
So i tried downgrading my S9 with latest android 10 version to android 8.0.0 using classy kitchen, and i actually managed to do it. After booting into system i realized that google services are not working at all, i cant even log in to my account. So i restarted my phone and instead of samsung logo red caption appeared saying "Only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed". Then i booted into download mode and it said KG state: Checking RMM state: prenormal, is there anything i can do to return RMM into normal state? I cant even flash twrp because it says that only official binaries are allowed

Hi Oneplus users,

Can you all sharing your best way for optimizing fingerprint unlock ?

Yeah don't use it. Use a pin. It's the only way law enforcement can't force you to unlock your device for them to snoop around on
[OnePlus 12] jkmaxfli:
What do you mean by optimization? I just know that if my fingertips are very dry, I have a problem. The fingerprint reader also does not cope very well with wet fingertips.
[OnePlus 12] mysky911:
come across a method that record same finger 2 or 3 times.

Have you try that before?

You forgot to unlock the bootloader. Press Volume Down+Volume Up+Power when connecting the phone to a PC, then long press Volume Up until you see a confirmation to unlock it. Press Volume Up to then unlock its BL and erase all of the previous data stored on the phone itself.
[General Questions and Answers] planeboy:
Hello. This is a question that came up and I wanted to answer this. What if Android Recovery crashes when you delete the recovery daemon? Will recovery be unbootable? Will your device get bricked or somethin' else? Answers are apprieciated.
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
Yes, deleting the recovery daemon will likely render your device unbootable and potentially bricked. In a best-case scenario, you might experience a "soft brick." The device might power on but be stuck on the boot logo or show an error message.
[General Questions and Answers] planeboy:
Honestly, it would not be able to actually boot recovery too. It'll just come up with a permanent No Command screen and do nothing. Or your phone is hard-bricked.

Making a new thread instead, what is the safest way to upgrade the android version on a sm-x200 without twrp and without losing data?

Would this be correct:

Download the latest firmware using frija

Extract the boot.img from the latest firmware i downloaded, transfer it and patch it with magisk, then transfer it back to pc. make the patched boot.img to boot.tar (Or should i replace the stock boot.img with the patched one inside the AP file and select the entire thing in odin?)

Open Odin, select the BL and CSC file, instead of using the AP file from the firmware i just select the boot.tar file. Flash it = success?

Or will any of these methods work: https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/ota.html

Hello.

Can someone help me and guide on how do I extract WhatsApp chats on an Android device with no root access?

The method with WhatsApp-Key-DB-Extractor seems not to be working anymore.

I have even more complicated situation. I used to use modded app called YoWhatsApp, brilliant but blocked so I had to install original. Now I have 2 DBs of messages from YWA and original WA, both on the same phone simultaneously.

What I want to do is to change a phone, so I want to extract both message DBs, they are crypt14, merge them and import such combined backup file to new phone, to original Whatsapp.

I can’t do it straight forward as I don’t have root access and rooting would result in loosing all data.

Phone is Samsung A71.

All methods I found so far don’t work, that is WhatsApp-Key-DB-Extractor, android-backup-toolkit, can’t use adb pull. I can’t even create adb backup as I get 47 B file…

Any ideas maybe?

Hi All

I've just got a cheap new SmartWatch that uses an Android app called InfoWear to send the various phone notifications via Bluetooth.

I currently have RCS enabled on both the Google and Samsung messaging app.

Is it impossible for InfoWear to send RCS message notifications to the SmartWatch? Even something like "You have a new encrypted message. Please open your phone to read." would be better than nothing.

I'm trying to understand why this limitation is in place. WhatsApp messages are encrypted but InfoWear can send those to my phone.
