phone kills scheduled events - OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers

I'm having issues with several apps not triggering at specific times/notifications. Tried to whitelist Duolingo and that worked for two days and then it stopped. Podcast addict is doing the same thing. It should update every 4 hours but nothing happens. Tried to whitelist it but didn't work. The developer thinks it is the phone that kills the wake-up trigger/alarm. Anything else that I can try as it is rather annoying that various apps only work if I actually open the.
Running nougat and 4.0.2

Disable Doze Mode from Settings->Developer options. Reboot to wipe caches and check if problem is solved.

I'll test that. Didn't know the reboot did that.

What I meant by reboot was to boot into recovery mode and wipe caches.

Sorry not sure how to do that. Just going into memory clearing it from there doesn't do the trick?

Press the POWER+VOLUME DOWN keys simultaneously until the device restarts and oneplus splash screen appears. Then recovery mode will start and language selection menu will appear. Wipe caches from there. Be careful not to wipe anything else. Then restart your device. Most issues albeit small ones get resolved by doing this.

Seems like doze kills the check. If I switch doze off, podcast addict runs the check for new episodes. With it on it doesn't, even if I whitelist the app. It also seems like when it runs the new episode check , the phone kills the app as it showed up under power hungry apps. I'll see if the cache clean dies anything.

Severe Overnight Battery Drain (100>0)

Hey all,
I just woke up late today without my alarm going off to realize my phone had went from 100% at 10PM to 0% by 8AM. I've read through a few different threads on overnight battery loss, and determined that the big recommendation is to clear the cache partition. I wanted to ask if you guys have any other major recommendations based on my screenshots and info below, because I'm really tired of having this happen. Thanks!
My settings:
-Wifi, Data, Location are always kept on (Wifi connected to a network)
-HD Calling is on
-Most/all bloatware is disabled
-I use the Edge Clock at night
First pic is from last night, the others are from other nights.
Try turning off location and bluetooth and wifi. It should solve your battery problem. I lose about 3% overnight by disabling things during sleep.
I don't think that would explain the other 97% of my problem. Here's another screen shot
Whats your app usage look like?
Also, if you haven't already make sure to wipe cache. It's always the first step to try to fix issues.
Try this too:
1) Turn off all of the advanced calling features
2) Turn off phone
3) Hold volume up, home button, power button until it boots into recovery
4) Wipe cache partition
5) Reboot
6) Re-enable the advanced calling features.
Ditto. Show us your detailed app usage screenshot
I misspoke in the first post, I don't keep Bluetooth on during the day or at night.

Here's where I'm at today (turned off Wi-Fi mid-morning, which has helped a bit it seems) with detail of the app usage. zimgir, I did a cache wipe last week without any noticeable results, but I did not turn off advanced calling before doing that, so I'll give that a shot now and see how it goes.
Make sure to go to advanced wifi settings and disable search for signal during sleep. Even though you turn off wifi, this setting usually persists.
This is my wifi setup, I disallow any automatic scanning.
(It's the fifth item down.)
Also can you show us the details of your Android processes? It's very odd that it's using so much of your battery. I've only had that sort of usage when I encrypted my phone. I don't do that anymore since Samsung Pay won't work with encryption.
I've gotta ask, did any of the steps help you out?

It doesn't seem so, my app usage is still very high. I'll post pics of the Android System process details later today.

Wifi problems! Causing uncontrollable battery drain and other issues

On my phone the wifi toggles off and on repeatedly.
It toggles on for one second then off for one second then the cycle repeats.
The only way to make it stop is to activate airplane mode.
If I turn airplane mode off (to talk, text, etc.) the cycle continues.
I therefore cannot use internet unless I am using LTE and I get very rapid battery drain.
Any proposed solution to said problem?
do you have the latest version of marshmallow installed?

I have not received an OS update since September.
This is a very bizarre issue.
The wifi just perpetually toggles off and on without explanation.

Were you able to fix the problem? I would backup your contacts, pictures and anything else you might keep exclusively on your phone or do not want to lose and then go into recovery mode. Perform wipe cache partition (this is your system cache or /cache). If this does not fix the problem after reboot, go back into recovery mode and perform a wipe data/factory reset. Again, backup everything beforehand as this will format your /data, /cache and /sbfs partitions so everything will be cleared. After reboot, it will behave as if it was just turned on for the first time. Your system version/build will be the same as your last update in September.
Here are some videos if you have never used recovery mode before.

note 9 updated to android 9 calling issue

Hi, I updates my note 9 to android 9. After update when I call to people screen is flashing. When somebody pick up the phone flashing is disappearing and everything goes back to normal. Does anyone else have the some issue? I did not have this on Android oreo, after update to android 9 this problem show up. Have a look on this video >>> https://drive.google.com/file/d/1r0hC0d81l1FAXiHh9E7dRsbXr7iBDZ9J/view?usp=drivesdk
Try wiping the Cache Partition in Recovery Mode. If that doesn't work then perform a Hard Factory Reset.
Yes, exactly the same happens when I call. I think it is by design.
I worry that maybe something will happen to the screen because of this
I worry more about my eyes. On positive note at least I know when I butt dial someone to disconnect after few rings/rapid colour changes
I'm surprise no one mentioned this issue before. I'm sure there is a lot of people having the some problem

Have you checked in accessibility ? As there might be a setting to turn the flashing off? I would check on my Note 9 but I’m back on Oreo 8.1 as I didn’t like ONE UI PIE 9 Update!!
I have/had the same issue. But it was only randomly appearing... today it did not occur, but I got a new OTA update yesterday (dbt). Also I had in accessibility settings turned on the setting to remove animations which is now turned off. I also wiped cache after OTA. And I have animations turned off in developer settings, but this is like that since I have the phone. So if I don't see the issue again it might be due to Samsung addressing it in the update or the accessibility setting switched off or wiping cache. if I see it again I will report.

Glad it helped. It is always good practice to wipe the Cache Partition of your device after performing a OS update. As this ensures that no software conflicts will occur when you use your device.
A factory reset, wiping cache, etc, none of those helped the flashing call screen for me.
When I went into Developers options and set all the animation scales to .5 instead of off, that fixed the flashing call screen stuff.
I prefer animations off but I'll take this trade off till they fix it.
The animations bug has always existed on most android devices. setting to .5 resolves all these. wiping the cache i've found doesn't make a huge difference overall, since it will be rebuilt during usage, and improve performance over time.
I think
It is the d3v thing, but the main issue is the notifications, they don't clear and it's really irritating. Also I always do wipe cache partition after updates. Don't want to factory reset as I'm not rooted so it would. Mess. Up a lot of. Things
Hi,
I can confirm that removing the animations had fixed the problem on my phone.
Settings => Accessibility => Visibility enhancements => Remove animations
NOTE: In Developer options all 3 animations (scale) settings are turned off as well.

I also had all of those animations turned off before I did wipe partition cache
This worked for me too.

Thank you! :good:
I tried OLEDsaver from the app store but it creates artifacts and banding on images and messes with the contrast.
Wiping the cache partition stopped it happening for 1 day but then it came back.
I've now set animations to .5 to see how it goes.
Device is a Galaxy S9.

Question very lag

omg.iv got the exynos version s21 ultra ,but after last update phone lag very much
most of the time it lag after i unlock my phone ,then you see the lag animation .
do you guys have this that?

I think Samsung have been messing about with the touch boost. You can see it when you touch the screen to scroll etc. They're trying to save battery etc.

Samsung Device Care (if that's still there) as well as other places in settings to toggle it.
In Device Care only choose the power setting; optimized is usually best. Toogle on only the fast (or super) charging option.
Disable/uninstall any other 3rd party power management like Greenify or carrier junkyard ones.
Go to Developer Options>standby apps
If power management is disabled all buckets will show as active. You will not be able to change this state there (it won't take; close that Developer options page and then open it again to check).
This may help or not. I'm running on Pie.
This was a huge pain even with Pie; troubleshooting Q and above is much harder than with Pie.
Simply disabling power management was only part of my solution. I then tracked down the apks that were still sucking up cpu cycles and battery life. Find the root cause(s) rather try to cure it with power management.
Try updating Samsung and Goggle apps especially system apks. See if this helps.
If not, do the opposite and go back to the factory load versions especially with the Google system apks.
Karma Firewall is very useful but on Q and above you lose it's logging feature which I use daily.
You can still lock down apps internet connection with it though. Google Play Services is a big offender on my device as are Android Services.
Obviously Google Play Services needs to have internet connection at times, so I toggle it on as needed ie mostly Gmail, Gmaps and Playstore.
Turning on "enhanced processing" makes the phone like it was before the update. Samsung have been messing about trying to save battery on "normal" mode.

Nokia 7 Plus frequently locks up, not in Safe Mode

I have a Nokia 7 Plus, running Pie, unrooted. Generally a great phone, had the charging port fixed by Nokia a few years ago.
But every now and then the screen locks up, I can usually get control back by locking the screen and waiting a moment and unlocking.
I've factory wiped my phone a few times, I've removed of my apps but today it's been terrible and seeks to be locking up more than ever.
I put it into safe mode and used chrome, with Bluetooth and wifi and had no issues at all.
Any ideas how I can diagnose and fix the issue?

Any suggestions how to potentially fix this?
Maybe worth to try the following:
1) clear system UI cache
2) Android system force stop
3) reboot
and /or
1) activate developer settings
2) under -> debugging -> Game-Driver Settings activate "prerelease-driver* for all Apps. It will survive re-starts
3) enter recovery mode and perform the graphics test
4) reboot
This is working for me since 29 May 2021. To be confirmed....

Thanks @chrhei
Unfortunately the issue still persists with the first option.
I'll try the 2nd one - what does the Game Driver setting do?

To be honest: I've no idea what it does, but it's still working for me.
Sorry to all
After 5 days of usage it happened again.
Conclusion: No fix.
Sorry for being to optimistic.
