When my Captivate battery hits 10% or less the screen automatically dims and the camera will no longer work. Is there ANY way to stop this from happening. I'm more upset with the screen dimming and I'm unable to make it undim.
Thanks. Do all the custom ROMS do this as well? Is it a hardware thing? Software thing?
afaik, it's a hardware thing.

That sucks.
Well, I just email Samsung for a "fix" for this. Or a way to disable it. Last night my daughter was doing something really cool and I wanted to take a picture. Couldn't... Battery had just reached 10%... So basically IMHO 10% might as well be 0%.
I let you guys know what Samsung says. Probably something like:
"That is a feature designed to help you maximize your calling time and can not be disabled."
If that's the case I'm getting an HTC Android phone. Samsung meddled too much with Android IMHO.
As the title says. What are your reasons for not liking pie and going back or wanting to go back to Oreo?

Very buggy! Big icons look like they are for blind people, who can’t find there apps! No call recording, themes don’t work! i found it so dull maybe in 6 months when it comes more stable and compatible with Good lock and the bugs are ironed out I might upgrade..
Also I only used for less the 2 days, I’m sure there was some more issues but I hated it. Oreo Rocks! Well that's my 2 cent!!

Thanks for chiming in.
Yay...another Pie impressions thread.
I am also thinking about reverting to Oreo. After all I was fine with it. Especially now that Pie brings me the "broken" split screen (not Sammy fault but anyway), bad UI design like rounded corners and ugly icons, Good Lock still not working, other apps not supported (some themes and such). But I also know that Oreo will not be updated at all, and there may be other features that I'd miss. I want to live with my time, not refuse the future of our phones. So maybe I'll get used to... but that's been a month and nothing has really changed and I'm kind of getting tired of this.
Maybe I would revert to Oreo and then try out Pie later this year, when things appears to get better. I don't know. Does anyone else feels like downgrading too, or already did? Do you miss some Pie features (lift to wake, rotate on-demand, AOD features, night mode...)?

just flashed official yesterday but have been on Pie beta 2 for some time. I dont find it to be all that bad. I have heard of BT issues but have not had a chance to really test it out yet. That will be tomorrow. As of now i see no reason to move backwards.
I've been on Pie since Official, and haven't looked back!

Downgraded about a month ago never looked back or front however you want to put it!
Night mode it’s just a theme lol AOD had a bug or two your contact info or something like that wasn’t being shown! Alos just turn on blue light for night mode its easy on the eyes!
Tons of people have downgraded! ONE UI PIE 9 has been so rushed, it's like Samsung just make sure main things work and leave the actual stuff that us end user need to last or don’t even work..
i don’t think I’ll ever upgrade to ONE UI PIE 9 on the NOTE 9! I’m going to keep it on Oreo 8.1 and just get a NOTE 10 X for whatever o.s out then!
Note 9 runs awesomely on Oreo 8.1 what’s the point of upgrading ?
Constant bluetooth issues with my car caused me to downgrade, I agree ONE UI seems very rushed.,
Bluetooth issues between my car, actual phone and Galaxy watch - call coming in only on watch, unable to transfer to phone
Missing video recording button in camera app, now you have to swipe to video mode to be able to record, I don't know why I have to do 2 steps
Missing floating button in camera app - previously you could put recording button anywhere on the screen - useful for one handed recording
No extra volume when making a call over the ear speaker - my biggest issue, don't know why they removed it, the sound was terrible even before
No call recordings - need that for my work
and last issue - gay icons, or like circus paintings icons, the over saturated colors and nonexplanatory icons, common Samsung, this is a business people phone, can you do better than this?
I am very sorry I updated, already downloading Oreo 8.1 and will work on downgrade tomorrow. Very disappointment with this build.
Well, currently downgrading... Did all needed backups, now flashing ARL3 back, and getting ready to reinstall and reconfigure everything... for the better I hope *sigh*
Why would anyone go back to Oreo lol , you will not get OTA patches and fixes if decide to stay on Oreo , it's everybody own decision what you want to do with your phone but not a good idea to stay on a firmware that wont get support no longer, Just my 2 cent on this.

Well I prefer getting back features that I use often instead of OTA patches and fixes. I ran my previous phones on custom ROMs which didn't provide latest patches and I was very fine with it, because I had what I though was good for me And for now, in the state Pie is right now, I feel like Oreo is better for me. After a month on Pie, I don't enjoy using my phone as I did on Oreo, so I decided to revert

Personally I didn't encountered any issues, my beef is with the aesthetics, seems to me that they rushed it out, the GUI is horrendous, even adjusting the DPI in the screen settings leaves us with a big and unpolished interface, icons, notification bar and everything seems so over sized and tasteless.
Downgraded the next day, for now i'll stick to Oreo.

If you rely on using bluetooth hands free talking in the car, that is reason enough to downgrade. Bluetooth phone calls simply do not work for most people in the official Pie update (worked fine in 8.1). This is a very important safety feature, not to mention in some states you cannot hold and talk on the phone while driving. Wonder if someone who gets a ticket will try to have Samsung reimburse them...

Only reason I'm thinking about it is I miss having VoLTE. I have sprint and with oreo there was a work around to get it. Now the only half assed way to get it is to be on wifi calling then it'll work but only for that call

I would like Bluetooth to work in my car and iconx buds. Constantly disconnects. I will definitely go back when the problem is fixed.

What are the OTA packages we need to disable in package disabler pro to stop the OTA's from installing?
Only because there is no Xposed or Substratum system themes yet (I like dark themes, not black themes).
After updating to pie the aod shows the charging status & estimated time on the bottom that to in white font & it is not moving
It can cause screen burn plz forward this to Samsung offical as it is a serious issue

You realize you can change the AOD to Tap to Display, so it's not always lit up. Or if you typically charge the phone overnight like me, you can schedule AOD to oy turn on during the day.
But if i charge overnight it will be there for the whole night . As it in white & it doenst move so it can cause screen burn very easily.
& i like to have aod on all the time

Then that is the risk you take. If you don't want it to burn in, then change it to tap to display or turn AOD off while charging.
Sir it was not like that before so it must be bug . As it not suppose to be there . They know that if you want that info to be there then it has to move .
Turning off is not solution to it

It's not a bug, it's a design decision from Samsung. You have the solution, so whether you choose to implement it or not is up to you. Glad I could help and have a great day!!
Its not there in note 9 or s9 or any other phone then why would they add the feature in 2 year old that to in new system update. Its common sense.
& using aod is just tap to show is not the sol. If they wanted that then the same thing will be there in note 9 or s9 .
Have you tried factory resetting your phone? Sometimes OS changes can cause bugs.
Or did you try clearing the AOD data and cache?
I would do a factory reset and see. (I think Samsung will tell you the same thing to make sure it's a bug and not a corrupted file from the OS update. )
Use the Samsung plus app to report the bug or Samsung's own forum where they monitor.
We at xda can only give you some ideas to try but we can't fix it because we don't work for Samsung and this is not a Samsung company forum.
It's a good idea to always reset the phone for new OS upgrades.
Let us know after the factory reset if the bug is still there.
Yes sir,
i have tried cleaning app date thing but it still the same . Also i have reported it to Samsung lets see if they reply . In Meantime i was just pointing it out here so if any one can help or any 1 is having the same prob can comment on it.

Incorrect. It is also present on my Note 9 running official Pie. I'll check my wife's S9+ after it updates to Pie, but I bet it's on there as well.
Again, it's NOT a bug. What it is, is a design decision you don't like. You can turn off AOD to avoid the burn-in. You can set it to tap to display.
I'm telling you how to fix your problem, but you are so determined you are correct, and you aren't. It is not a bug it is a feature of Pie.
Again, its NOT just the Note 8. I have in my hands right now a Note 9 running N960USQU1CSAA and the charging percentage and estimated time to charge appear on the AOD when the Note 9 is on the charger.

Have a look at this thread here. This person posted a screenshot of the official changelog for the Pie update. If you scroll down the screenshot a tiny bit, you will see information about the AOD and it explicitly states the charging information has been added. Like Mr. Orange keeps trying to tell you, Samsung did it intentionally, just like they did other things on the Pie update that people don't like. If you don't like it, find a way to work around it, or go back to Oreo. Those are your options.
Ok got it they have added it .
But if i want aod alwyas is there any way around to be safe frome this ?
as its not moving like other fonts & also it in white

Well, you're not supposed to leave your device on charge for 6 hours at a time, anyway. You're not supposed to leave your device on charge over night. Ideally you would only charge it for an hour or two at a time, and even then, during that time you would be using your device at least once or twice, turning it on, thereby not leaving the AOD the only thing on the screen for that entire duration. And, even if you didn't use your phone while it's charging, it's very dim and not on full brightness, so the chances of it burning in that short duration is a lot lower.

You can't have both I guess. I wanted a Jeep Wrangler but also wanted to get 30 miles per gallon. Not possible. So I sacrificed gas mileage for a vehicle I enjoy driving.
You want AOD on all the time, but you don't want the charging status to show while you're charging it. You can't have both. So you will either have to shut off AOD while charging or risk screen burn-in I guess.
...It is still crippled by the forced feature of only having 10 seconds AOD! i hoped and prayed this would of been sorted by now with the infamous MIUI 12.5.
It obviously didn't matter about the other threads i posted (and asking support over on Twitter) as it seems nobody else is bothered? so it appears other users are happy to either resort to rooting their phones and using Magisk or removing MIUI optimisation via developer options just to have a working AOD?
I for one am NOT! why should i? Its dangerous and you lose certain elements. i bought the phone for this feature, they took out the notification light so the least they could do is have an AOD that's, you know...ALWAYS ON!
I'm sick of having to wake my phone all the bloody time just to see if anything has turned up or if i missed a call when i wasn't around near my phone. This is not too much to ask, but it seems everybody else is fine with it? WHY?
On topic, i don't see much change from 12 apart from the sounds being different, a slight increase in speed..oh an the volume bar is different..woo!
(notes got an update waaay before i received 12.5 so that was nothing new.)
Oh, AND STILL NO SUPER WALLPAPERS!
Colour me unimpressed.
P.s this is copied from my MI account on their forums, so not specifically aimed at XDA folks.
Totally agree with you, I've heard they do this to make the false sensation of this being a premium feature, so they push users to buy expensive phones.
For 12.5 I expect proper AOD, super wallpapers and FIXED DEEP SLEEP.. Im tired of losing 20% battery overnight
Plus 1 on the AOD 10 second issue, there's absolutely no point in AOD if it's only on for 10 seconds. I've submitted an issue with Xiaomi Services and Feedback and they came back saying it was for battery drain reasons, which is bull****! Makes more sense to add the option for always on instead of 10 seconds and let the user decide!
My 168 hours will be up this afternoon at which time I'll hopefully be unlocking my BL and flashing MiuiMix. It gives the option to have AOD always on.
I totally agree, I shouldn't have to flash a rom just to get a working AOD but I also want call recording and if MiuiMix on my Mi 9T Pro is anything to go by, it is much better than stock.
I'll see how MiuiMix goes and I might also have a play with the unofficial LineageOS release that looks promising as well.
Yeah it's pretty bad, I got a reply from the developers saying it's for battery too, seems to me it's an artificial cap for their low end devices.

Yep total bollocks on the battery drain issue. If anything i waste more battery turning the bastard on and off every frigging 5 minutes (at full brightness) just to see if anything has turned up! An AOD (like on my GF's Mi9 is in a very low brightness state which moves every 2 minutes to prevent burn in) should be implemented on their midranges too...But it seems like it's a feature deliberately only available on their flagship products...If that's the case it's discriminatory and bang out of order.
Please guys tweet @XiaomiSupport as much as possible and get Redmi Note 10 users to do the same, also use the inbuilt feedback on your phones...i'll post a screenshot in a tick on how to do it.
Come on comrades if enough of us keep harassing and threatening to boycott they will have to take notice.
1 : Settings (scroll right to the bottom)
2 : Service and feedback (ignore FAQ)
3 : Suggestions (tick box)
4 : Enter your grievance (I did mine via my phone so due to predictive text a few mistakes, but you get the gist)
5 : Select item (home screen + settings - always on display)
6 : enter your email. (Send)
Try and highlight that is not too conserve battery as you waste more battery turning it on and off, and that their flagship phones have it... If you pre-empt their stock reply you have more chance of not being fed bull****.
Good luck lads

Near the bottom of developer options there should be an option in the Autofill section called 'reset to default values'. Apparently if you tap this a few times the switch for MIUI optimization will appear again
Yep, pretty annoying. That's why I switched to PixelExperience I did notice a battery drain though when using it.
I'm now using NotifyBuddy, an app that only turns on AOD when I have a new notification. It replaces the notification led. Works well.
Hello all
I'm facing a weird issue in My redmi note 11..
Pictures look blur even after download picture it's look blur..
I exactly don't know what I called this issue blur or oversharp.
But something is not correct..
Is someone facing this issue?

Hi Sameer lyf,
Hey, aren't we all.... It appears the Redmi brand has a lot of unfinished quirks and bugs in their devices.... as I am experiencing too....
The hardware seems ok-ish, but the OS and software seems very quirky at moment... most likely due to the bundling of MIUI over Android. As things that used to work in STOCK Anndroid no longer work on these devices and left with features that don't work....
1) Ringtones !! (can only select from the 3x different ones it came with... no option to add others)
2) SD Card Slot, pointless addition as does not work
3) Default Apps, forget that they are the chosen one... and reset themselves as soon as you've configured them.
4) Battery Drain, seems to drain 1% as soon as you tap the screen... lol
5) ..... I'm sure there are more issues, as I've raised a few threads since getting this phone barely a month ago.
With regards to your issue, are you able to upload a sample photo so we can see more what you mean...??
Is this taken with stock camera, or one of the many GCam mods... as we're all still trying to find the holy grail of Camera's for this device...
Cheers, Lister
