Greenify 2.9beta2 / WA2.16.98, AD Whitelist - WhatsApp

I just enable Notif from the AD menu to get this toast but dunno chun bo.

ya, my BT smartlock not working with 3rd party lock.
But fingerprint unlock not a problem, just ignore the swipe unlock prompt(dun swipe), direct scan finger to unlock.

Update: maybe AD is working when phone in motion.. I see from toast some dozed timing even when I was walking with phone in pocket.

I doubt accidental screen crack will be covered by warranty but maybe you should get quote from shops just so you can decide where to send the phone for repair

I'm getting ridiculous SOT using forcedoze.

Already 7.5hr SOT with 27% left on battery.

Going to run this to 5% and see how much SOT I can get.. but looks like 9hr SoT is possible... lol

Think no replacement phone. Last i heard it cost 290+ or 390+ to repair at Samsung. Just to let you know first so you don't get a shock. Cos the display and glass are stuck together now so it's more expensive.

Ok how about this, not the most comfortable solution but bear with it 11 months, then upgrade your phone. Pay $150 on top of whatever you need to pay for your phone when you recontract, more worth than paying just to repair the screen.

But go get a quote from Samsung first, for all u know things have changed and be nice and honest, MAYBE they might do it for much cheaper. If too ex, go ask around for trusthworthy shops to see if they repair it, probably won't be gorilla glass already. BUT also note that i think once you do that, warranty for the phone is gone, if the shop **** up the repair, you end up having to repair the phone at Samsung. Just go around ask for quote first bah, then maybe ask back here again.

Do u have a screen protector for your phone?

Wow, I've read of bugs like that on greenify AD but I guess it can also happen on FD as well.. it's working pretty amazing on my s7e. My guess is it is probably conflicting with something but on greenify AD you ran the dump command and also on FD so dunno what will happen there. I think u hv to fully uninstall greenify to fully disable.. but if AD is working for you then no point using FD

 

[Jackygogogo]

Just enable no-root workaround on my note 5 FD , touch wood hope can doze and can wakeup tomorrow morning.
