play googleapis com

If I block these many domains the Google Play Store is trying to connect to, in my firewall, then it stops them from showing up in my firewall's running log of connections.

Is the Google Play Store app using less phone battery running in the background when I block these domains in the firewall? Or is the firewall just not showing the app trying to connect? Netguard firewall uses VPN basic feature of Android.

Google Play Store app is forced on. I can't disable it that option is grayed out. It used to be possible to disable it in the app's settings but during one of the Android system updates they grayed that option out. The phone is on Android 12, Sony Xperia 1 II (this phone never got a 2nd analog update I guess Sony didn't care for Android 13?)

When I blocked the items, I had also stopped the app with a force stop and cleared the cache.

If I clear the data it only clears my app settings like the denied permissions.

I see it has showed up again after I blocked some google domains a file explorer was trying to get to.

Once again in the log with

https connectivitycheck gstatic com

and the autofill again

and

appmeasurement com

I realize this is their business model but I want to shut it all down.

Any way?

What the device needs is some low power way to force stop the google play store every time it starts.

So it would seem, that when an app tries to get to its domains, but cant, that app is sending some alert to the store that it can't get to the necessary domains to give my data away, and the google play store fires up and starts spinning all day if I let it.

So We need to turn off this inter app functionality that it has built around every app to contact the big brother play store app if they can't get thru to mommy on the internet to watch us all.

Any way?

Actually says that it has taken 0% of battery and lets me optimize it to restricted battery, yet still it shows up in the firewall nonstop.

It has nothing to do with "what are you worried about". It's only to do with this app is showing up and running its domain attempts all the time in my firewall log, and I don't want it to be even running at all because I don't use it and I don't want Google. The fact is that Google inserted its presence into my life 20 some years ago when its whole marketing campaign began. I was using infoseek when they took over it was a much better search engine then and anything is better now than Google. ANY THING is better than Google now. I mean it, you suck Google. Censors everything, puts blatant false things in its top search results. There is only one thing Google is good for and that is spending your money.

Let's talk about our fingerprint.

In my case it works great, but some people have problems with it. Does OnePlus use different fingerprint sensors?

Let's check it!

1) In dial write *#899#

2) Manual test

3) Device debugging

4) Finger print test

5) Acquire fingerprint chip information

Mine is as in the attached picture.

[OnePlus 12] Rexee:
FOD works fine; I had no issues. However, I did notice that if I push a little hard on the screen while trying to read my fingerprint, it acts out and doesn't work as well as when I simply touch it.
[OnePlus 12] zelos156:
I ask because mine works very great. Have you added your fingerprint once or more times? "I mean one and the same"
[OnePlus 12] Rexee:
You can't add multiple of the same fingerprint, but I did have to redo my fingerprint to try to get as many angles and parts of my finger for it to be reliable.
[OnePlus 12] Radulfr:
I have always added 2 fingerprints of each thumb for better results on every device I've had over the past several years. Yes it will usually say at the beginning that the finger was already scanned but if you keep moving around slightly and let it try to scan again eventually it will start scanning the same finger again and you have 2 on file for the same finger.

Anyways I've never had any issues with the op12 fingerprint scanner. Its fast and reliable, it doesn't let others in and it always let's me in.

Your warranty is now void this device is 10 years old, your warranty is long expired. I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards, thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.

This is a rehost of the ROM on needrom, which requires an account to download.

This is Resurrection Remix for the Idol X+/6043D, afaik the only ROM that's not 4.x based for the X+.

Do note this ROM DOES include GApps, if you don't want them and plan to use microG (like I do), just immediately hold down the power button when GApps start flashing. You won't damage your device. This ROM also replaces the powered by Android screen, I'd imagine you could use something like SP Flash Tool to restore the original if wanted.

[Android Head-Units] econdebachs:
I've seen a handful of people trying to get information about head units with MCU ZA001. Most of the information about it can be found in 4PDA but even when translating many pages there's not much valuable information other than questions. My unit has fake Android 13 (Is actually android 10).

I've got one primary issue with my unit, which is when the interior of the car is hot the unit seems to randomly keep trying to open the video player, once the aircon cools the cabin down the unit works fine.

I've been unable to connect via adb (usb or wireless), I have access to the factory menu and developer menu but there's no setting there or option to let me either debug or gain admin rights, so I'm a bit stuck.

Any help will be greatly appreciated and I hope we can turn this thread into a compilation of info for that unit family which seems fairly uncommon.

[General Questions and Answers] dedq:
When I want to turn on developer options I get

To disable this restriction, please refer to corresponding setting in Island.

Is there any way around it

I've given the island dpm administrator permission

Thank you for your help
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
The message "To disable this restriction, please refer to corresponding setting in Island" indicates that an app called Island is restricting access to enabling developer options on your Android device. Since you've already granted Island device administrator permission, here are two possible approaches to bypass the restriction:

1. Using Island Settings (Recommended):

Open the Island app.

Access Island's settings. This might involve tapping on a profile icon, menu button, or a gear icon depending on the app's layout.

Look for a section related to Security or App Permissions.

Navigate to options that might control developer settings or system modifications. The exact location might vary depending on the Island version. Here are some possible places to check:

Security > Advanced > Disable developer options (Look for an option to toggle this off).

App Permissions > System apps > Settings (Look for permission related to modifying system settings).

If you find a relevant setting, try disabling the restriction and see if it allows enabling developer options in your main settings.

2. Uninstalling or Disabling Island (Less Recommended):

FYI: This approach should be a last resort as it temporarily removes the Island functionality.

Open your device's Settings app.

Navigate to Apps & notifications (or similar depending on your device).

Find the Island app in the list.

Tap on Island and choose either Uninstall or Force Stop.

Go back to your main Settings and try enabling developer options again.
[General Questions and Answers] dedq:
Interesting but there are no settings related to any kind of permissions especially considering developer options

I somehow have a feeling that this has to be solved on the level of Android not Island necessarily
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
May be @oasisfeng -the developer of Island - can guide you how to fix the issue?
[General Questions and Answers] KarenMartin:
Hey! Since Island is controlling your device admin settings, you’ll need to dive into Island itself to tweak it. Open the Island app, head to the settings within it, and look for the option to disable the restriction on developer options. Once you find it, flip that switch off. If you’ve already given Island admin permissions, this should work. If it’s still being stubborn, try revoking and re-adding the permissions. That should help clear things up. Hope this sorts it out for you!
[General Questions and Answers] dedq:
I would be very happy with that but I don't think he would do that personally.

I'm sure the problem has to do something with giving administrator privileges to the application

That was necessary for it to actually work at all

Sadly there is not a single option considering these restrictions that can be turned on or off

In the same time I'm a little bit honestly scared to revoke certain permissions knowing that application is working very fine now

I used to have big problems setting it up using ADB

increase the ram memory in windows mobile

are there some registe hack ?
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] mislatero:
hi someone helpme please!! :(
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] bejank:
Dude, you can't increase your ram with a registry tweak. Ram is an actual, physical component. You would have to see if you can buy ram upgrades for you device, and take apart your device and insert the new ram. It's not like ppc 2003 or below, when everything was ram, and you could choose how much of your total ram went to storage, and how much went to program memory. This way meant that when you ran out of power, you lost all your data. Now, storage memory is rom, and program is ram. Even on older devices you had a certain total amount of ram. You can't do anything about it except maybe to physically upgrade your ram.

I hope this helps! :)
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] dwizzy130:
Exactly. I'm pretty sure it is impossible on your phone to even replace the RAM physically. It's not like a computer, it is built onto the motherboard in your phone. Upgrading the RAM physically was possible on some older devices but you had to send it to some company to do it. Your phone is stuck with the amount of RAM it currently has.

Sorry,

dwizzy130
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] shneoh:
Maybe mislatero want is a way to maximize the empty memory size.

As I noticed, my WM6.5 will store all my emails into the main memory rather than store into my big Build-in Storage (more than 7G storage space). I have looked around and found no option to do so.

Maybe anybody can give a hints on this?

Sorry, Mislatero, I might have used your thread to ask my questions... hope you dont mind..:p

[Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra] SgtChrischi:
@morley636

We already have a thread in a German forum with almost 300 posts and many people concerned about this. And also on reddit you can find some posts about this issue. So yes, there is definitely a problem with overheating. Unfortunately without a real solution. For some, a factory reset seems to help at least partially. Some got the answer from Samsung support that the problem was known and would be fixed with an upcoming update. But we've been waiting forever for this fix.
[Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra] morley636:
What forum is that? The German one that is. I feel mine started after the last update last week
[Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra] TheSkyline35:
I would like to follow this thread, but I couldn't find it yet ? Do you have a link ?

I also find my 24U quite "warm" just doing very basic stuff (browing, youtube). It is actually quite similar to my previous S21U Exynos. Compared to my father S23U it is shoking : The 23U will keep it COLD doing basic stuff, while the 24 is constantly +3°c above.

My phone is actually riding the temperature threshold all the time while doing basic stuff yeah... and this is over wifi, the best case scenario.View attachment 6118903

[Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra] Village_Idiot:
OP, What do you mean by, "basic use"?
[Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra] TheSkyline35:
Thanks, it's a very interesting and lively thread. Indeed, there is an issue. But I couldn't properly understand, is it a new issue since a few recent updates ? Can we expect a software fix ?

I just got the phone 3 weeks ago, had one OTA and moved my data from my 21U with smart switch. This phone have been warm ever since, doing basic activity the phone is warm around the CPU, top of the device.

Maybe a factory reset would help (does the German guys had good success with it ?)
[Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra] SgtChrischi:
@TheSkyline35

It wasn't like that from the beginning at least, it started somewhere around March or April update. And like I said, Samsung support told someone that it's a known issue and will be fixed with an upcoming update, whenever this will be...

Regarding the factory reset: for some it helped temporarily, for others it helped at least a bit and for some others it did nothing. I reset my phone like 2 months ago and had no heat issues since then, but a few days ago it started to heat up again, but currently only when charging (without fast charging, normal 10w charging, which sometimes even throttles down to 6w even when I'm not using the phone during that time) or when making calls.
[Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra] TheSkyline35:
Thanks for the summary :)

Do you have an idea of the current average battery temperature with a "fine" S24U ?

Having a 22-25°c ambiant temp here, mine got an average of 30°c for the battery on the day, with peak at 40°c in charing and when browsing in 4G a solid 33°c (and it does feel warm at the top). Sure it's not bad, but considering I'm just doing light stuff in a climatised room, it's quite annoying
[Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra] SgtChrischi:
@TheSkyline35 I guess around 30 is okay for normal usage. But I think the CPU temps are more interesting since that's the area that gets hot. And I've seen temps around 80-90°C there while just watching YouTube.
[Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra] vaga.bond:

After many attempts i've successfully changed the CSC to XAA (United States) for my SM-R890.

1. I flashed EVA8_OXM_v1

2. Choose English (United Kingdom) for the country.

3. Use the system shell exploit for galaxy watches and start a reversed shell (https://github.com/ITDev93/SMTShell-ForSamsungWatches) so you will get system uid 1000

4. in adb system shell change the mps_code.dat to XAA (echo XAA > /efs/imei/mps_code.dat)

5. Change every property which you can from BTU to XAA (adb shell "getprop | grep BTU") and add a new property (setprop ril.sales_code XAA).

6. You will see later in the Galaxy wearable app it's updating to XAA firmware.

Additional steps to get one UI 6 beta:

1. Reboot it watch and phone (without sim)

2. Force stop samsung members and clear data

2. Get a USA ip via a vpn app

3. Then start the members app and make sure it has the one UI 9 banner

4. Quickly try to sign up for beta program as samsung members will change to your country again.

5. Signed up for beta, you will get an error when trying to install the apps, just mak sure galaxy watch 4 plugin is update to the latest version.

6. If needed reboot and repeat steps....
