Hopefully, this will be the last time I post lol, but I think I've finally found the real cause of the problem. After hooking up "adb logcat", I seeing that the "powergenie" app was spamming the log with thousands of crashes. It appears that is what was hogging all the background CPU. All of...

I'm going to try doing a factory reset of my phone after I back up everything. Something is still very screwed up about 50% of the time. I can't even zoom smoothly in Google maps anymore.

Unfortunately there are still some times throughout the day where it will get laggy. The intermittent nature of the problem is probably because it's related to scheduling of background processes. I really wish we could see detailed cpu stats on nom-rooted phones.

Yes. But when I woke up this morning, my phone was slow again! I noticed that there was message about "Play Protect" being on, so I opened the settings and see that it's scanning is enabled (I had always kept this disabled before the update). Within 30 seconds of disabling it, my phone is now...

Omg I fixed it. It's sooo much faster now, completely back to normal. The solution was to disable all of the autoscans in the Huawei "Optimizer" app. Ahhh feels so much better now.

For me it's gotten really bad. It feels like the CPU is running at 20% of normal speed. Everything I do is so much slower. Even something as simple as turning on and off the flashlight is now delayed. Is there a safe way to downgrade back to 10. 0?

After using 10.1 for a full day, I can say for certain that everything is laggier: swiping back, swiping down on the status bar, bringing up the keyboard, tapping buttons in any app. I'm very disappointed.

I just installed 10.1 and am disappointed. It seems that disabling animations in the dev options no loner works. There are now animations every time I change windows which makes it sluggish. It may be my imagination, Firefox also feels slower.

Is there any chance Sparkle will work on an Android device that can't be rooted? I've upgraded my tablet to one that's much faster, but sadly lost Xwayland support. I'm using Xsdl, but the keyboard support is so buggy it's driving me crazy.

I agree that it is an almost perfect phone, but I also use it for some development work with a Bluetooth keyboard while plugged into a USB-C monitor. There are a few cases where I'd like to have raw access to the network interfaces with wireshark as well as being able to configure a few...

I haven't seen much discussion of rooting in the last year. Is it as simple as unlocking and installing Magisk? I've been putting off upgrading to EMUI 10. Should I stay with 9.1? Can I upgrade before or after unlocking/rooting and still have root? I see this website is still advertising...

tillum it's not a mouse, but my bluetooth keyboard has a track point and three buttons (left, middle, and right click) that all worked properly without any changes. It doesn't have a scroll wheel, so not sure if that's working.

Are you able to start something simple like xterm without any window manager running? The error seems like it is specific to xfce4, maybe related to dbus.

I forgot to mention that I also run the following command as root while mounting everything for the chroot. (tmp is in the chroot directory and mounted as tmpfs): chcon u:object_r:app_data_file:s0 tmp

tillum Can you post the commands you ran and the output? To lauch Xwayland, I first open the Sparkle app and click "Start". And then in my Arch chroot in termux, I run the following script as a normal user: #!/bin/bash set -e mkdir -p /tmp/sparkle ln -s...
