Question SM-G998B AUE1 MAY UPDATE

[vibrantliker]

Anyone know how to get around the com.pittvandewitt.viperfx folder being write protected after updating to latest firmware? (Samsung 21+ Ultra AUE1)
so I can add my own presets, kernels, etc?

Somehow I think AUDA update was better battery wise

Agreed. Not sure exactly why Samsung had to push another update. AUDA was working perfectly for me and battery had significantly improved.

Can you downgrade back to AUDA once you've flashed AUE1?

US unlocked straight-from-Samsung S21U.
Received the update yesterday.
Notification delay still hasn't been fixed but I'm not sure if this is a Samsung or Google/Android issue.
Methinks it's a Google/Android thing.

I believe so yes, since they have the same bootloader. It would wipe your data though since downgrading requires a clean flash (from what I've read).

But wasn't it mentioned on the update itself that downgrades are no longer possible?

For me the AUE1 is much better .

I was getting 5-5.5H of Sot with AUDA .

With AUE1 I am crossing 6.5H of Sot with same usage

For me, AUE1 seems better overall.

Specifically, the stand-by drain has reduced significantly.

I spent this weekend mostly watching TV and playing games, so wasn't using the phone heavily.

Was surprised that i got two and a half days of use on a single charge with 5+ hours of screen time.

The SOT is nothing to write home about (for a single day's use, it ranges from 6-7 hrs nowadays - up from the 5-5.5 hours in the first month), but I've never had such low standby drain on this phone before. That's where I'm pleased to see a significant improvement.

AUE1 is better than AUDA in every aspect.

I guess I wrote my comment a bit too soon. I stand corrected. It seems there was a stupid rogue app screwing with the battery. Blasted it out from my phone and all's well!

Which app was it?

There was a music app which was running in the background for no reason...Good riddance

I only use Samsung Music and Spotify. All I need.

Exynos AUE1.

Glad Samsung managed to bring the exynos on par...
