Answers to this question https://android.stackexchange.com/q/130000/131553 explain how charging while phone is in use does both - charging the battery **and** powering the on going activities. My question is different — **Can I stop charging the battery but use the connected power for ongoing activities?** *Why do I want to do this?* * I want to charge the battery within ideal limits (see https://android.stackexchange.com/q/156526/131553) and * at the same time use the charging power to keep running the phone without any heat stress on battery, thus extending battery life. * Also the battery is not drained, enabling me to use the phone for longer time without charging Edit : I am not looking for dedicated cables or hardware that can possibly do this

Further to this question https://android.stackexchange.com/q/207633/131553 **How does one install EdXposed on Android 10?** **Notes:** 1. This is a self answered question consolidating information from several threads on XDA / Github and my experience on Oneplus 7 to give a helpful start to that dying breed who like to install [tag:XPosed-framework] modules . Edxposed is still in beta and Android 10 is recently released, so there would be many changes to this answer in future. Since I do not intend to update this answer with developments, others are welcome to add and modify. Moderators are welcome to make this a community wiki if warranted. 2. Answer is generic in nature and for issues relating to installation / modules you are better off asking in respective device/module threads in XDA.

Device: OnePlus7, Android 10 **What happened** * Device was rooted with October security patch updated, custom kernel installed and Magisk Manager hidden (to prevent root detection by an app). All working fine. No problem. * Updated Magisk Manager to 8.0.3 successfully but it shows Magisk not installed * But device is properly rooted and all rooted apps work fine. * I can see the hidden Magisk Manager in app drawer but tapping it doesn't help. Nothing happens. It tries to open, shows Magisk logo and disappears. * I can't access the Manager menu to see if I can fix something from there. **What I tried** * Flashed Magisk again from laptop. No use. * Restored stock kernel from backup made by kernel manager app. No use. * As suggested by Didgeridoohan's guide tried these * Cleared data of Manager. Uninstalled and installed Magisk Manager. No luck. * Uninstalled manager, installed canary manager and set channel to update to canary hoping that may help. Doesn't help. Device still properly rooted * Saw this [Github issue](https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/issues/2014) , Not applicable. **Things to try** * Flash Magisk uninstall zip and root again. * Try manual patching of boot image and flash * Dirty flash stock ROM - not possible because device is rooted and would result in boot loop. * **Any other simpler option?**

This is a weird question , in the sense I recovered from the boot loop but don't know why and how and hoping I get some pointers from the possibly incomplete information. I recently applied monthly update on my OnePlus 7. For those who aren't aware , OnePlus downloads the complete ROM instead of update if it detects root or unlocked bootloader (good thing). This is applied as local update. Before applying the update, one needs to uninstall those Magisk modules which aren't a part of the Magisk repo to prevent bootloop and switch slots in Magisk as per the [OTA upgrade notes](https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/ota.html) . I had done this several times and this time it went fine and it booted up normally. Yesterday, I needed to reboot for a totally different reason and on doing so entered into a bootloop. Long press power didn't shut down the device and none of the usual key combination tricks worked. Fortunately, after a struggle, I managed to get into recovery mode of device using power **+** vol down. My first suspect for the bootloop was that I had was that I was careless by *not* uninstalling non-Magisk repo module , so here's what I did after fast booting into TWRP * Cleared cache and rebooted with same result. * Flashed [this zip](https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/module-tool-magisk-manager-recovery-mode-t3693165/page40) to enable Magisk core only and rebooted. No luck * Switched slots hoping that the pre-update slot would boot up but again no luck. * I was resigned by this stage to doing a [tag:factory-reset] since I couldn't think of any other solution. Since the full ROM was already there on the device , I tried installing it through TWRP ( I know it won't work, since it is not a fastboot ROM, but then I was ready for factory-reset). It showed installation in two stages , stage 1 was successful but stage 2 stopped mid way with a warning fstab not created (IIRC) . This flashed twice. Again tried to reboot , no luck. * Booted into TWRP and again disabled all Magisk modules and rebooted, Bingo, it worked ! (I may have switched slots, don't recollect as I was reckless enough to try anything) I am sure trying to flash full ROM had something to do with revival because on booting I had a stock kernel, instead of custom kernel. Of course, I had to flash Magisk and modules to get back to business but luckily data was intact. Long story to make sure no facts are missed. Now my question in two parts: 1. What else could I have tried? 2. How did flashing the ROM (unsuccessfully) help?

I have seen this question https://android.stackexchange.com/q/32172/131553 posted 8 years back and app solutions do exist but not with Android 10,so it's not a duplicate of this question or other questions which suggest apps (they don't work for me) I am helping my wife record instructional videos on OnePlus 7, running stock Android 10 (*not rooted*). I want to use Bluetooth audio input instead of the device mic, as it would provide better flexibility. * I don't find any settings to enable Bluetooth in camera or elsewhere and internet search hasn't helped. * Blogs recommend apps but surprisingly none seem to work reliably with Android 10. [BTmono](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bedoig.BTmono) works *sometimes* and is not a reliable solution, and similar story with [Camera fv5](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.flavionet.android.cinema.lite&hl=en) Any suggestions, including apps, accessories are welcome **except** * Separately recording audio and sync with video, that's too much work * Involving signal processing hardware * Root * Laptop * Accessories like mic (I have asked for accessory advice on [SE.Video Production](https://video.stackexchange.com/questions/30194/eliminate-background-noise-in-home-made-videos/30207?noredirect=1#comment41372_30207) and hope to get better answers there)

As in title. I am talking of Kernel, not ROM (plenty of questions dealing with ROM on this site). I have a OnePlus 7 running stock Android 10 and prefer a custom kernel. Of late, OnePlus hasn't released source for kernel and this has played havoc with all custom kernels in OnePlus 7 and other variants. So, I want to flash a [kernel](https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=81300967&postcount=605) that is independent of the changes One Plus makes. Only problem is that it is **SELinux permissive** and therefore I want to understand the security risks before flashing it. Edit: As requested in comments (deleted) :

-# zcat /proc/config.gz | grep CONFIG_SECURITY_SELINUX
CONFIG_SECURITY_SELINUX=y
# CONFIG_SECURITY_SELINUX_BOOTPARAM is not set
# CONFIG_SECURITY_SELINUX_DISABLE is not set
CONFIG_SECURITY_SELINUX_DEVELOP=y
CONFIG_SECURITY_SELINUX_AVC_STATS=y
CONFIG_SECURITY_SELINUX_CHECKREQPROT_VALUE=0
- # zcat  /proc/config.gz |grep CONFIG_DEFAULT_SECURITY_SELINUX
CONFIG_DEFAULT_SECURITY_SELINUX=y
-# mount | grep selinuxfs
selinuxfs on /sys/fs/selinux type selinuxfs (rw,relatime)

Ok so I've encountered this on multiple devices across multiple networks so I'm 90% sure it's an issue with the core OS but it's been happening for over a year and hasn't been fixed at all. About once a day my device will drop its wifi connection and when I open the wifi settings page it cannot scan/locate any nearby networks for me to join. It just kinda hangs saying that it's searching for nearby networks but it never shows me anything (even though I know there should be about a dozen nearby since I live in an apartment style building). Toggling wifi on/off does not help, nor does toggling airplane mode. The wifi settings page remains empty no matter what. The only solution I have been able to find is to do a full device reboot then everything works fine for another day or two. I've encountered this on both the google pixel slate (worst purchase ever, returned it) and a OnePlus 7pro. The behaviour has been **identical** across both devices. I've read some old articles saying to disable ipv6 support but I don't even have that option on the OnePlus phone (and honestly I wouldn't be happy if that was the solution). I'm a senior software engineer at a major tech company and I can't figure this out and I can't get any legitimate help from the companies behind these devices. What can I even do? I am open to troubleshooting suggestions or if someone can help me gather debug information to submit a more official report that would be great. Right now I have no way to get official support, the people at oneplus are just giving me the usual runaround of doing a factory reset etc without even examining the issue... and google has worse customer support than comcast.

I noticed that my new OnePlus 7 Pro has Netflix preinstalled. This is awkward being the phone is so much more than prior models, and OnePlus has always prided itself on not shipping bloatware. Is it possible to remove Netflix from the app-list and as an installed application without rooting the phone? I have the option to *Force Stop* and *Disable*, but neither of them give me the ability to uninstall, [I see Netflix and OnePlus announced a partnership in 2019.](https://media.netflix.com/en/press-releases/netflix-partners-with-oneplus) Does that mean we're locked into having Netflix stuff installed on OxygenOS?
