for best reliability, you should use a Win/Lin/Mac and official https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter but as long as it was not previously formatted as "internal storage" it should have already been "portable storage" that you could pop into card reader and use with any computer (so you shouldn't have needed to format it)
common recommendations for better extended battery health is to use them in the range of 25-85%, try not to let them fully drain, rarely charge near full if you won't be near charger, avoid heat generating quick charge instead of slow charge, avoid charging while gaming, and anything else generating a lot of heat.
Thanks for sharing. I was about formatting SDCard using Minitool Partition Wizard, then saw your recommendation and use it. That formatter tool more simple and easy to use. My SDCard just recognized at LOS 19.1 without need to format again. Wondering if it need format again while moving data using card reader then place it again to phone. I will try it later. Thanks again for sharing that tool
Actually, I know about that common recommendations. that's why I just give a test 2 times for draining battery till it shutdown. I never doing it more and keep my phone plug in charger at least at 20% then out at 90%.
As far as I know this answer goes in 2 directions:
Usb is not fully functional at the moment outside of basic mtp functionality. Best we can do right now is look at the logs and see what the issue is. Although, tethering should be working, so I need more details about your setup, as well as logs.
In terms of recoveries, use the one provided by los as this is much more up to date and does not have the issue seen on twrp where it completely corrupts devices on 12. In addition, los recovery is needed for otas.
Thanks for the reply.
In Updater app there is a checkbox in threee dot menu to update recovery. Also asked in SUW.
It's been a while since I've checked but as far as I know the kernel has some issues when it comes to the camera.
I see.. Been read some people posts about camera issues, seems it will be focused when LineageOS 20 ready.
I had never tried before recording at 60 fps on Lineage, but I remember that I tried on stock Nougat and worked. At least on Lineage 19 with GCam it locks at 30FPS (without sound), with Open Camera again at 30 FPS max, but I could reduce to 24 FPS just changing in the settings.
I use mpv and works just fine with all my library of 1080p BD-Rip and web-dl on either x264 and x265 (just remember that multi-channel audio has volume controls still broken, not only on mpv but stock player as well) and I play directly from my NAS. I never tried any video above 1080p on this device.
Not only the kernel. Our rom-side camera blobs are awfully out of date, and with them being closed-source, there's not much that can be done on them besides hexedits.
Huh, that's a rare one. So it loops for a while and then reboots after some time? If so, you might be able to get the ramoops file (basically a log of what has been happening until it crashed) by booting directly into recovery when it triggers a reboot.
- Your warranty is now void.
- You have been warned.
- Use at your own risk.You're using a H990, which is known to suffer random reboots pretty much any time it's pushed hard enough. This seems to come down to the dual-sim functionality that makes it use more power than the average V20 at any given time. The only solution for that (more of a workaround actually) is to undervolt and/or underclock the SoC. One needs a custom kernel, and the other, root.
Shutting down completely does point to a bad battery that can't hold the phone at lower capacities, though you really shouldn't be running "battery intensive apps" (which could be anything, from a camera app to Genshin Impact) at such a low capacity anyway.
Depending on the state of said battery, i agree that getting a new one is the best approach, but I definitely wouldn't recommend disabling BCL. It's there for a reason, that reason being shutting down the phone to prevent serious damage to the battery circuitry on those very cases. BCL already kicks in by default and caps the phone to 1.2GHz below 20% and their phone still died anyway, things wouldn't be any better if BCL was disabled and the phone was running the Snap 820 at full steam then.
