I wrote things for which I had quite good information about : you may take the time to read the Free Software Foundation Europe speech about this [here] Or, if you prefer to read the official EU Directive ("Directive 1999/44/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 25 May 1999 on...

I had no time yet to investigate, but after dirty installing latest build yesterday, I got two soft reboots today (so kernel messages would be useless to read I think) Other than that it works pretty well :)

thx, but don't ask me, I am only the thread maintainer. and with my lack of time these days, I can't even follow dev ... :\ Have a nice day!

Unlock is kind of a one way to hell ;)

Nope :-/

Oh dear. How did you flash a custom ROM in the first place ?

you can't for now : btw, I am happy to see everything's working fine for you :)

As I see, this is a very common question, and people don't seem to read your twrp FAQ as often as they should.. Either we should duplicate this specific question or linking to your thread from the general FAQ one ?

Same here, Had no time to investigate, but I noticed a similar behavior on my device: battery stats show some activity spikes while unused at night and it sometimes wake up while lying on my desk. I don't know if it is one of the sensors' threshold that is set too low and reacts to signal noise...

^^^^^^ See above :)

So I dirty flashed the update, and... So far so good. I was a little curious about that uncommon zip name, so I checked the zip integrity (see screenshot) and builb.prop content to make sure it was for our Cedric. (And it was confirmed by the update that had been tested in segmentation fault...

Hello Ektus, i may have missed it in your troubleshooting, but did you tried to remove your cache / music app cache & data / reinstall the app?

That sounds correct, although my Samsung wall adapter is fast charge capable, and was provided with a cable (and not a cheap one), that basically can't be use for fast charging with the G5, that looks silly...

You may disable that specific notification, but I doubt it will solve your issue, At least it is expected that you need to unlock to be able to use any protected app.. I tried to replicate on my device, but I doubt I understood what bothers you :/ Can you make a video or something ?

Don't worry with the bugs you have in your kernel, moto g5 lineage default kernel is far from being perfect either, I woke up this morning with core 0 to 4 off, and core 5,6, and 7 blocked at 768MHz........... At 99% load. (Not sure why yet, going to dig it a little) So there is some space for...

What is 'start pop-up ? The vibration should be linked to the lock screen vibration and tap vibration, that you may be able to disable sound>other sound.

If I have some time, I may test internal impedance of the cables, it is possible that the device somehow probes the cable (or the cable + charger) and then decides if it can or not draw that much power without overheating/melting the cable; and then it will negotiate the quickCharge with the...

They might argue that as a rooter you over use your USB plug (flash addict), but they absolutely can't prove it.

In theory our device has a coating preventing water damage (at least with tape water) what kind of liquid was spilled on it? (or did you bath with it) The digitizer cable is on of the ribbon(s) connector(s) between the screen and motherboard. I did not disassembled mine yet, so if you can...

for those who want to monitor core governor, current, min, max freq via adb, I updated my shell script a little : #!/system/xbin/bash #catFreqCPU $c $i $pathVarA $pathcVarB catFreqCPU() { c=$1 i=$2 pathVarA=$3 pathVaB=$4 catFreq=$(/system/bin/cat "$pathVarA$i$pathVarB") #echo -e "\t$i...

Hello daniel.stuart14, I have a few questions for you: As the Redmi3s seems loaded with a msm8937 inside (and so doe my motoG5), how are you handling the big.LITTLE SoC? are you using HMP or mpdecision? How is the SoC set up by default? (cpufreq, governor, ... any cluster specific tunings?) We...

Is your device properly dried? If so, it might be time to open is and see any water damage on the digitizer connector. In the mean time you might use an external mouse and keyboard plugged on to a hub in OTG.

I don't know if I would be happy with stock ROM gov setup as I didn't use it more thant the time required for enabling bootloader unlock... At least setting gov to interactive for LITTLE cluster enhance power efficiency a lot, i doubt this is enough to get the best we can, but it is at least...

Keep your Falcon if it still works Cedric is far from being a bad device, but I would have wait a little more if my own falcon had not died too soon. Cedric doesn't have a big enough community for any efficient dev teamwork.

Us right now : :angel:

I've just bought a two screen glass pack from amazon : it is shipped in a sturdy package that should protect the content: https://www.amazon.fr/dp/B06W2FZ9K7/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_SMR8zbN2CV8W0 A really good product.

Marie74, maybe the above can help with you weird issue too.. TheFixItMan : may I link this in my WIP FAQ?

The last time I faced that, it was my motoG first gen nand memory that was ageing and corrupting data and such...(crashing the device, and getting into bootloop) did you change sdcard cache size ? I had an old device that would crash when the cache size was not the default one. If you can...

Did you get a firmware for your specific device at some point (even outdated, so we can check against similar firmware for 1676)?

What about the following : Go to TWRP, make a backup 'in case of', then wipe /data (but not ./media), /system, /cache and art:dalvik cache. Reboot to bootloader, Using fastboot flash again the different firmware parts (without gpt.bin thus preventing a hard brick -hope so-). Boot system...

Then, maybe the only difference is radio/RIL, and gpt and such can be same. If you have a firmware of your device to compare that could be cool; I could only compare with the firmwares I had under the hand : https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=74299135&postcount=25

Yeap, I just wanted to do it without third party software ;) I didn't say this 'how to' is super useful, I just shared the way I did it.

Welcome agour I've come up to a similar conclusion with a lot less data (thus I didn't share them). I caught power consumption at the wall outlet when charging my device with two chargers: Motorola stock charger and a Samsung Adaptive Fast Charger. The Samsung has the following specs: 5V 2A or...

Long story short : I needed to get my sms from my old motoG and transfer them to my new motoG5. Here is how: This can be done without any third part app, only a capable recovery and adb is needed. Get your old SMS take you Nand backup you hopefully did before your device died. find the...

What are the specs of that variant?

Which (and how) did you flash the firmware trying to solve your issue?

The above was a risk management until I could get better data. But I needed to go further. ok, After downloading the above firmware (25.137.33 for different MotoG5 variations) I compared them : The comparison is a two way comparison, using...

I was about to say get last_kmsg, but as you need to reboot by yourself while stuck in bootloop you'll get "hardware reset" and not the reboot cause... What you call power save mode is : - the "orange mode" or - the one you get in battery settings > performance profiles, along with balanced...

Before flashing anything, make sure the firmware is actually made for your specific device (or you may brick it)

It should not, and although some users seem to have battery life issues on stock rom, I hope lenovo did configure it properly.

Could you list the apps installed, did you reinstall all apps after the clean install?

At least the governor is properly configured for the 4-7 cluster on stock ROM (that's something that I was starting to doubt about...) If you ever install LinageOS in the next days (but I hope it will be fixed before) you may need to force the governor of the cluster 4-7 by 'echoing' it to core...

If I understand HMP correctly, it works this way : - the scheduler is energy-aware and knows which core are performance ones, which ones are power-efficient. thus can send a process to a specific cluster depending on the demand. - big cores are mostly idle or off by default - LITTLE cores are...

Neither do I ... (And I have no time to learn, but that would be worth the pain, power efficiency-wise)

This the workaround I am using too, but we still lack a properly working HMP and/or core hot-plugging :)

In this case you are certainly right :)

cpuZ fails to detect the two different clusters and assumes core 1-7 are slave of core 0 If you are rooted, the app "Kernel Adiutor" can tell us more about this by looking at CPU menu, and governor for the LITTLE cluster Or cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu4/cpufreq/scaling_governor

by setting correctly the governor of the LITTLE cores I simply got like 50-70% increase of battery life! for core disabling I don't know, usually cores are mostly in deep sleep when screen is off as device is sleeping, so there shouldn't have much impact disabling cores (although as most task...

on another side, when screen is Off, logcat is getting spammed by : 10-23 08:55:08.028 2671 2867 W WindowManager: Layout repeat skipped after too many iterations 10-23 08:55:08.031 2671 2867 W WindowManager: Layout repeat skipped after too many iterations 10-23 08:55:08.033 2671 2867 W...

I've tried to find a similar approach on other msm8937 devices and found the following in init.qcom.post_boot.sh of bq tenshi : # enable governor for perf cluster echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/online echo "interactive" >...
