and another thing, that wretched battery 'pingpong' I've got Battery Pack 2003 v4.2 installed and set to 5%, it shows 40% left and about 60% on the external battery and silly the bloody thing bleats at me! argh!
Check http://xda-developers.com/tweaks and fix it manually i think its better, mine after i fixed it manually is still poping but without the anoying sound or animation.
:wink:
I've looked at that, bit scary! My sounds and notifications already has the option to turn off the sound nad message but it doesn't work, maybe it's just stuffed!

Just wondering, did anyone else notice that when you try going to max brightness (from settings->display) it only goes to 99%? And if you try going to 100% with widgets, the screen gets brighter all the way till 99% and then when it hits 100 it gets a lot dimmer
Anyone else noticed this? Or is this bug specific to my poor unrooted X10a ?
I went to the Setting -> Display and Un-check Auto but I did not get the % scale, it just a scroll bar without any number in it, but it went all the way up and down as well. Maybe depends on the firmware in the phone...

Yea you can't see the number over there.. you need a widget for that. But if you slide it to the maximum possible, and then look at the number in a widget(I've tried 4 so far, so its not a widget problem) it says 99%, if you make that 100 through the widget, it dims.
I guess SE knew this and made the max brightness 99%?
Yea it happens to me too. I use Quick settings and when I slide to 100%, it dims. But it's not really a big deal cuz I set my phone at 18-20%. Saves a lot of battery
same here ...
100% is just like 10%
Yes i noticed that to! I was looking for a widget to controll backlight, found one that looked pretty and got a bit sad couse i thought it was faulty for not working correct so i uninstalled it. Nice to know the reason for why things not work

It usually pops up in the middle of the night and can be pretty annoying. Any way to disable it?
Currently there is no full fix. This is the closest I have gotten: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=748400&highlight=battery+popup
Why remove it? I find it very useful, nvm read wrong
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
yeah this is very annoying... has there been further development of a fix(REMOVE!) for this?!?!
If you have JI6 update already applied you will notice that they changed that annoying pop up to a simple notification which shows up in the status bar when battery is fully charged.
That is definitely an improvement for me.
Definitely NOT an improvement for me. I need to be able to be alerted at night when an SMS message comes in when I am on call, and really don't want to be woken up because my battery is charged. There really should have been a way to disable the it alone, not move it to something if you disable, you no longer will hear SMS, alarms, event,... notifications.
This worked for me. Read through all of the threads so you are confident what to do. Main thing is to flash the correct one and wipe the cache and dalvik-cache first.

I did find a good way to get around this problem, at least for me. Set the global Notification ringtone to Silent, then change the Ringtone on Messaging to something you want for texts and same for email. Then the battery charge won't make a sound, and I will still be notified on text messages and/or emails.
The only 'solution' I've found is to do as others have said, disable generic notification sounds, and in applications-development set it so screen does not stay on while charging. The popup still happens, but there's no sound and the screen times out after my setting of 2 minutes. This is lame because when I use it in the car for music, plugged in, I want the screen to stay on all the time. Epic 4g
hi guys
ok, so i managed to install the villain rom and it's all working... yay!!
now, i can't seem to change the keyboard layout from qwerty to qwertz. i tried changing the phone language and the input language but it didn't change the layout. does someone have an idea how to do that?
my social hub crashes as soon as i try to open it.
there was a way to change the default homescreen to another screen by modifying the default.prop. it worked with the stock rom but it doesn't seem to work anymore now that i'm on the villainrom.
battery drainage is still crazy. 10% in about an hour of light use. i have the beautiful watch, google search, winamp, calendar and extended controls widgets. autosync is off. watchdog doesn't even give out an alert of an app using to much cpu cycles.
diplay 52%, android os 13%. yesterday i charged the phone overnight. in the afternoon i had to recharge it and before i went out i had to recharge it again...
why not post your question in the villainrom thread in the dev section? You will likely get more help.

To get Quertz keyboard, flash your CSC. Search for the forum with them all listed.
To increase battery life, try freezing unwanted Samsung apps, and underclock to 500 or 800 MHz.
Yup, just do an ODIN flash of the multi-CSC
I'd suggest removing any resource monitor apps you have - I just got 1 day 10 hours out a charge, including gaming
I don't use any watch dog things or battery monitors. I just leave it to be awesome
Remember to do a full wipe before installing.
Hi Guys,
battery life is super important for me because i am all day outside. I had an asus zenfone 3 zoom before (5000mah battery, total beast with 7-10 hours SOT). The asus had a battery saving mode that would "turn off data after screen goes off".
This mode was perfect for me, because the phone was working normal when i use it, and when it lock it, it drains almost zero battery, no background activity (its like being in airplane mode). I wonder if there is any way to do the same with the Mate 10? Any workarounds or suggestions?
With the mate 10 i notice that there is a lot of battery drain when the screen is off. If i go to sleep i will lose 15% the next morning.
I dont like the normal battery saving mode of the mate 10 because it makes the phone slower when im using it, and whatsapp messages/emails dont come through unless i open the app manually, which is annoying. So its not a solution i can use all day.
Any other tips are welcome.
My Mate 8 had this under in the power management tab in the phone manager app. My Mate 10 arrived today, I'll inbox it later and check. 15% drain is excessive, most are reporting 0 to 1% drain.
Ok let me know
Sorry for the late reply, got too carried away testing my new phone
Go to the Phone Manager App, click on the battery symbol in the left bottom corner, then click on the settings icon. The settings icon is in the top right hand corner. There you will see the options to disable mobile data and wifi during sleep.
Install "Brevent" from playstore and set it up using ADB (if you r not rooted)
Will help to boost your batt throughout the day
Hey, since the new update, the battery indicator in the nitificationbar is not updating / refreshing anymore, id does just always show a full battery, even when there is only like 40% left.
If i restart the phone it will set to the batterylife that is left, for example if i reset at 3/4 of the bettery it will show that but not refresh anymore till i reset again.
Factory reset and so on does not help, seems like a big software issue with the phone here.
if i go to options battery, it will show the right %tage in the options menue.
Also, they said in the patchnotes, that they now implemented a % of the battery in the notificationbar, but there is literally no option to enable that, any idead on where to search for that?
Or nay app recomendations that could help me out here?

It's working on mine. It is always set to % , no option to turn off.
I updated by using full time flashed with sp flash. Did you do it with OTA?

Yes, it made an update in the middle of the night when it got releasen, funny thing is, i turned auto updates off and nearly got late for work, because my phone is also my alarm clock and since it made it´s update on it´s own it reset and needet my passcode to restart.
Nevermind, i usually make a factory reset after an update and most problems are gone by now, for example the multitask bug, it is still there but not all the time and usually only when apps havent been open for a few minutes or from what i´ve seen, it just loasd alot of apps into the RAM and as soon as the 3,9gb are full it just closes all of them, instead of just making enough space and killing the first few that you have had open. I hope they fix that in the next update, but still it is way better than before.
BUt back to the topic. Since the Update, the battery indicator on the right top has a different style but as i mentioned just stays white and shows a full battery all the time, with no option to change it to % like the update log was mentioning.
Before the update it also had no % in the bar but when you moved the bar down there at leas was a % shown, now just a full battery symbol all the time.
But i tried a few different apps now an one just put in % in the battery icon now and also updates : itßs called Battery Percent Enabler, i tried 5 different ones, they did not work, but this just works fine, it is accurate with the battery indicator in the menu.
But i´ll guess i will try and root may phone sooner or later and then i will just flash the newest rom on it anyways.
Just wanted to know if i´m the problem and i just couldent find the menu to activate it, if it was a generell software problem or if it is just a bug since the update.
An other question, do you also have the frontfacing camera but since the update?
People in the umidigi forum and on reddit post about it en mass, i first thought it was a crack in the camera lens but since the update i have it too and people are having it too since the update.
https://ibb.co/RgXSpNJ
Its just one of the pictures of another f1 user since the update, mine has this weird line right in the middle of the camera, but i cant find a crack in the glass or the lense and since it only happened to people since the update do you think they messed something up in the cam software?
I also found a few that state the frontcam is not working at all since the update.
battery indicator
Literally the same issue battery indicator only shows the battery life when first booted, rebooted, or charging. Otherwise the battery does not move. had to install widget off of playstore. Also no percentage on/off even though when you type it in the settings search bar it shows it but redirects you to battery and we'll you guessesd it not there... hope patch comes out soon....

Hi, as i already troubleshooted and also kinda fixed it, just get the app i wrote in the first comment and everything should be good.
the only other thing that would help now is to re install the lastest update, since you messed something up while doing so.
or you can just install the app that i told you about.
Many of these little bugs or tweaks would be easily solved if we had an official and working GravityBox for Pie. Shame.
