Hi.
I made an app some days ago, but didn't know about this sub-forum, so here i am today posting about it.
The app is WearControl for Android Wear!
PlayStore link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=octathorp.wearcontrol
It requires that you have rooted your Android Wear device, so here is my custom rooted ROM in case you own a Samsung Gear Live (but it should work with ANY rooted Android Wear device, no matter the ROM): http://forum.xda-developers.com/gear-live/general/rom-octamodwear-stock-root-busybox-t2834620
These are the main features (more coming soon):
- Manage CPU governors in order to increase performance or battery life, at your choice.
- Reboot the device in recovery or bootloader mode; you don't need a PC anymore for that.
I hope you find it useful, greetings!
Nice work, idk why nobody has replied to this.
It seems to work with my Sony Smartwatch 3, even though it's not rooted. ??
A MUST have if you're a heavy user. Working solid on my G! Thanks and keep up the good work dev.
CPU governor set to powersave doubles battery life for me!!

it might but it would kill your battery since we dont have a cpu dedicated for voice recognition like the moto X

The cpu is not equal to the Moto X (1st Gen)?
Was it possible to use the "always listening" on Moto G 2013?
Where can i get the apk or do i need more than only the apk file?
Greetz and thanks a lot for help.

i dont know ill look into it... but no our cpu is nothing like the moto X, the moto X had 3 cpu for use for the device i think and one that was a low powered cpu that was in charge of always listening to the hotword without hurting battery much... we dont have that special cpu and it would most likely drain the batttery quicker.
edit: If you really want to try it there is an app called OpenMic+ that allows the same thing as moto voice, also there is one called touchless notifications i think both are free so if you want to try it out... but there again we dont have a super amoLED screen or the special cpu so dont say i ddint warn you about your batteery :b

Hi:
First of all sorry for my poor English. Soon I will receive a z3 Tablet. It´s probably that the tablet will come wit the 4.4.4 (kit kat) version.
The principal use of the tablet is watch films and series....Will you recommend update to lollipop/marshmallow?.
If kit kat is the best versión...Should I flash the tablet to a cleaner firmware version?
Thanks in advance
I suggest u a biggg NO.Trust me KK is far away better from all firmwares as regard on speed,lag and mainly battery life...
(bytheway..is the only OS that u can easilly get 10 hours of S.O.The weird with this,in addition to most tablets,is that streaming videos,consumes the same battery as just browsing.about 10%/hour ?)
Peace to all

Thanks. I´ll wait and check the version once the tablet arrives
For me the latest Firmware runs quite well.
About 9 to 10 hours with Twitch, YouTube and Chrome.
I got my unit about two years (don't know) ago, never done anything special.
My first Android device that performs so well about many updates so such a long time..

9-10 hours is perfect.I would like to try MM,but many users report only 6 hours S.O.T.Mmmm weird...
Peace to all
From time to time there was a problem with the android webview service, but a update from Google play solved it.
When Google optimized some strange things, it started draining the battery, but every time they fix it.
Very stable.
And of course, when you are running dozens of apps with push and autosync, your battery will die faster. But that's not firmware related.

hmm thanks for the info!you know is very weird when u hear some say that they get 6 hours,others 10 hours..but now I can finally test MM one day!But I have to tell u KK runs veeery stable.Not a single lag even with lot of apps and never f.reset ?
Peace to all
It´s possible go back to KitKat once you upgrades to MM?

Does Marshmallow stamina mode in the last firmware version ?
I use MM with the update of the slimm rom for z3 and it works perfectly. i got 9 hour of SOT with 2 day without charge it approx.
MM rooted over here. got 12 hr sot during hurricane matthew streaming movies over wifi hotspot
How is LP ? Should I upgrade to MM? Don't want to unlock bootloader or root so I'm picking between stock sony firmwares only

Hi Leo
Does MM have support for Dualshock 3 in Xperia Connect? I read that the feature was removed in recent firmwares

Dont really know. never used it since all emulators suck for PSP emulation.
I use MM, fw 23.5.A.0.570, and have about 12-14 days in standby. I don't agree with kos25k that KK is the best option, it's very old fw.
My tablet is rooted and debloated, and i use L-speed to tweak the system to my liking. It works very well. The only problem is with the camera, it can't focus and take pictures. Prob something I did when I installed the fw tough. Never really use the camera on it, so it's not a big deal for me though.
For best support you'll need an app to emulate the ds4 buttons and root. It should work with ds3 too but you will have to check.
Im going to root and try out 'sixaxis controller' tool that I've used with other devices.
Also i like MM wish we would get N.
although is old OS,it is considered by the most as the best OS overal..Also is considered from most developers as the most stable OS on android platform general..it runs on 35% of android devices,even if is old..and also in our case (Z3) very most say that runs best from anything else ?

Wait, are you using a Z3 made ROM on the Z3TC? Won't it have weird resolution and interface differences that aren't optimized for tablets?

Oh hey, Jax, Florida? 12 hours is pretty impressive, what settings do you have? I have latest MM rooted with some social media apps enabled, but what else do you have?

___________________________
I second that request. The LG V10 is a brilliant, flagship device...marred only by lousy battery life (ez to swap the battery out, though). I was expecting that since LG is porting Nougat to the V10, there would be dev work going on. There was a rooted version of the stock H90120e upgrade (which I have on my h901); but, it seems all development stopped after that. The fact that there were enough V10 owners to force LG into doing the Nougat upgrade should prove that there is a sizable market for a new, unlocked Nougat ROM. If anyone does it, I will be glad to act as a tester.

Battery life..yea...in my experience, it fluctuated allot. For a while, my V10 was getting very good battery life, but the last couple months, battery life is terrible, especially just standby time. Its drops to the mid 60's after just 4 hrs of sitting with screen off and nothing happening. I haven't change anything on it.
I recently switched to my Moto X Pure that is stock 6.0 but rooted and lightly modded with exposed....battery life is freaking amazing. Downgrade in camera(but stereo front facing speakers sound amazing), but I think my taste in Android had changed. Moto is closest to pure Google Android as u can get without getting a Nexus or Pixel, only a little bit of Moto apps and services added on...no UI or heavy customization. The experience is much smoother.
I recently had the chance to actually use a Pixel XL for a few days...and WOW...never used Android device that was so buttery smooth and fast. Makes sense cause with the Pixel, Google controls both hardware and software (like Apple and iphone). Only things that is holding me back is that the Pixel doesn't support AptX, which is important to me (but i read that Android O will soon fix that), and also the hefty price...have to get 128gb version since 32 is too small for me and no micro sd slot. Would cost $1,048 for the Pixel 128Gb with Google 2yr ADH warranty. Also, the Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL (6in lcd) may come out end of this year (November?) so looking forward to seeing how they improved upon the already nice product...at the very lest, price on 1st gen Pixel should come down at that point. Rather wait and dump the money on newer model in a few months...
As far as my V10....plan to wipe and re-flash rom...see if that helps restore the things battery life....but rather do that with an updated custom stock rom...but nothing newer than what i already have....so it its waiting for the 7.0 update.

Hi
I have a V10 H901 running Eliminator74's custom debloated V20L Rom and have no problems with battery in standby (overnight it only looses 2 to 3%)
and under normal use during the day I admit battery life is not outstanding but I do manage to get through the day.

yea....like i said....mine used to be like that...but recently...the phone hates me. Moto X pure is more than 2x the battery life. Been off charger since yesterday evening...still says 1 day 1hr left. Same normal apps installed and active.
YEAH! We want custom roms, Mods, tweaks, etc! This phone is extremely great!
I cannot promise anything due to work taking up time, life, etc...
But I really want to get xposed working on Nougat, and it doesn't seem terribly difficult with what I saw put up on github recently. That's going to be my first pet project. I haven't messed with this stuff in a few years though, so will have to shake off some rust. If I get it done... it will go up here! lol It's way more for me (I love xposed) then anyone else, but if I get it working why not share with the class!

I got the same problem, Battery life used to be good and all of a sudden it dropped drastically, Hate to see no updates from LG Tmobile, I think the problem is with the android system itself sucking the battery. New battery didn't help. I tried go launcher and it seems to be better ,, so I doubt the launcher is eating up every bit of battery. you could try different launchers and check if that is the issue. ( screen consuming all the battery )
But cant wait to update to nougat. so finally here at xda forums. Awesome folks here!!!
Any idea on how to root h901 running Nougat 7
yes to this thread, please build a stable lineage version for the h901 v10.
Hi guys and girls,
I'm looking at getting a new phone soon and my choices I've narrowed it down to, for different reasons, are these:
Google Pixel 2 XL - good battery life, great camera, pure android
OnePlus 5T - good battery life, good development scene
Huawei Mate 10 Pro - can get a good deal on it, great battery, great camera
Cons of the Mate 10 Pro all revolve around EMUI. Bugs/features I've heard about so far are these:
Non-push notifications not working
No notification drawer on lock screen
Quick reply actions etc not always working
These all seem really annoying and are things I wouldn't have a problem with on the Pixel 2. I could root, and install AOSP, but that would just have different bugs, and I'd lose the AI which is obviously a big feature of this phone, plus the camera quality would be lost.
So I'm looking for any users who have either had these issues fixed, or know workarounds, or have any other little bugs that I should know about.
Thanks

Its difficult to say, it seems like a simple fix for Huawei, so don't know why it's taken so long to sort out.

And that's the sort of thing I'm concerned about. They are a massive manufacturer and therefore you'd think that issues like this should be sorted at release. I understand that Oreo is still new and all manufacturers will have issues, but this would be my first Huawei phone and I'd like it to be in good shape! And a good experience.
Audio switches from bluetooth to loudspeaker after some time.
Call quality is very bad due to the AI chip.
Since these issues are there since release, I wouldn't recommend that you buy the Mate 10 Pro.
12 pages of bluetooth issues on German forums: https://www.android-hilfe.de/forum/...0-pro-android-8-bluetooth-problem.853624.html
The two issues stopping me from buying this now are what I've heard that third party apps don't show notifications on the lockscreen always on display and the LED works spordically.
Pretty important that I know I have notification considering this is a communications device I would say.
Also there are reports about poor wifi and cell signal.
