Hello everyone, i've been experiencing this problem for a while now: every time i put an app in the background (swipe up on gesture / middle button in traditional), Android immediately closes it for me. I keep seeing in the list of open apps (long swipe up on gesture / square key in traditional) the apps I should have in the background but as soon as I open them it's like I'm starting them for the first time, not saving anything I was doing before. So far i've been able to live with it, but now I can't postpone this problem anymore.
What i tried so far:
Restarted the phone several time
Turned off adaptive battery and battery optimization
Turned off energy saving
Didn't touch anything in the developer settings
And i got another issue probably linked to this one: in the GMail app, the notifications for multiple accounts only works to the account you are viewing, not to the others. (Example: If i'm connected to two accounts, A and B, and i'm viewing B's emails, if i receive an email on A's account the notification won't work. If i receive the email on B's account while i'm viewing A's emails, it won't work either).
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: Just in case you want to know i'm currently on 11.0.5.0 build.
EDIT 2: Link to my reply with a possible solution to the application issue: LINK

Xiaomi team for our device is at fault. If you want the best android experience you should buy Pixel phones.
I'm also having this problem. Seems that restart helps a bit for some time but not for long. It is really an awful experience to use the phone like this. Having the 4 GB version.
It's the first time that I'll complain about this phone! But the use is unbearable now! I have the 4gb version too! I hope the next update fixes things
As far as I know, this problem is common on our device. If the next update isn't going to fix it, then I'm switching to a custom ROM. HavocOS, RebelOS or LineageOS 17.1.
Never had this problem before but is indeed the first time I'm also considering a custom Rom too!
If you're rooted you can fix this using LSpeed app
Hello again, i apologize for being away for a while, but i had personal problems.
I just wanted to reply to my own thread because today i updated to 11.0.7.0 build, but they don't seem to have solved anything? The changelog says only
Optimization: Increased system stability. Reduced system lag

(other than June Security Patch). I'm reading the replies now, and i have to tell you that (currently) i can't root or install a Custom Rom because it would conflict with my bank's application.
So, once again, no support from Xiaomi... but the great news is that i may have found a solution for the application problem! I will link this reply to the main post, so you can find it more easily, let me know if it works for you too!
What i did:
Disabled Adaptive Battery under "Settings -> Battery ->Adaptive Battery"
Disabled Night brightness (also the plannings)
Disabled Do Not Disturb (also the plannings)
Disabled Rest mode (if any)
Rebooted the phone
Try it out with two application, and if you want to reactivate some features after the reboot, i discovered that "Adaptive Battery" creates problems only after some days since it's turned on, so i suggest to keep it disabled. For the other settings, i can't confirm anything because i haven't tried yet, so let me know.
Thanks
Finaly it worked. :good:
I was searching for this problem for a long time.
Your solution worked with me.
I want to say:
I already jave disabled adaptive battery, Night brightness and Don't disturb mode. But only Recovery mode I needed to disable it, then I rebooted the phone.
Now I can switch between applications, and no application have been closed.
Thank you
what recovery mode do you think?where can I find it? thanks
Hello,
I am relatively new in the Samsung world. Currently, I own a S20U 5G phone, with latest Android (G988BXXU6DUB5)
I have several questions, just put them in a list not to create a lot of threads. I would be really grateful if you could share advice/your experience.
I've noticed some clicking sound when I exit my Camera app and also when I open Settings for this app inside of it. Is it ok? I bet it is somehow related to the lens.
I've also read some articles regarding the autofocus issues. Are those solved? For me it seems to work decently fine, but I am not sure what are the best settings, should I keep tracking autofocus turned of or on.
Also, I've noticed that if I do some AF test with bringing hand relatively close (20cm), and on the background there are some objects contrasting with the background, some grey squares are popping around them and focus seems to be jumping to them randomly. Did anyone notice the same thing? What are those grey squares?
The battery. My SoT is around 4.5-6hrs, on LTE mostly with some calls, a lot of FB and messenger. I've noticed that the battery likes to drop quickly from 100%. Like if after I start using it on 100%, it could drop to 97% during 10-15 minutes of active usage. Then it is going slower, in a normal pace. Is you experience similar?
Thanks in advance for sharing your experiences.
Sorry if questions seem newbie ones, I just need some advice.
1. Yes it's just the camera sensors locking AF
2. AF was vastly improved with updates, there seems to be no issue with it now
3. Grey squares are usually the camera AI trying to find faces to focus on, so anything that might look a bit like a face to the AI it will try locking onto
4. Normal for Samsung devices to lose a few % very quickly, and your SOT time is fine

Hello, thanks for your answers, it is much clearer now.
I've noticed an odd thing about this specific feature, for example, if my child is moving, it tries to lock onto face with a grey square and if I start shooting, often I get a message "this photo might be blurred" or similar, and it is indeed blurred. Maybe you know how to combat this, if possible? Maybe some specific camera settings?

For moving subjects it's best to use Pro camera mode (Tap the "More" button under the view finder > Pro Mode
Set the shutter speed low as possible while still allowing enough light in, you can raise the ISO to get more light without increasing shutter speed (At the expense of noise depending how high you set it), that way you get a lot less blurring on the moving subject, in this case your child
The blurring occurs if the subject moves while the shutter is open collecting light, so the less time it is open, the less distance the subject will have moved, thus less blur
Works best in good light such as sunlight, then you don't need ISO too high and can drop shutter time right down while still getting good exposure
There is also a setting for Auto camera mode in the camera's main settings called "Tracking Auto-focus" which once you tap the screen to focus on a subject, regardless of where it moves to, it should remain in focus
One of the most annoying features about the Moto g 5G plus with Andoid 10 is that every time the sceen blanks/sleeps it cuts the WiFi connection. It stays connected to the router apparently, but not the internet. This is annoying for lots of reasons (not the least is having Whatsapp Desktop tell me every couple of minutes that my phone is not connected). Turning the screen back on restores the staus quo just fine, of course, but wastes time. I have spent quite a lot of time searching the web for help, but all I have found is lots of other folk with the same problem and a variety of suggestions , none of which work. There used to be a "wifi always on" setting in Android but I can't fine any trace of it. Is there any way to keep it alive from the settings alone?
I saw some suggestions about using Tasker but was unable to find any further references saying if it could be done sucessfully. I'd be quite prepared to use Tasker (albiet I'm not very techie) if I could be assured that it was possible, esp[ecially as I wondered if Tasker would stop my screen blanking when I'm using speakerphone - another similar annoyance.
I'd be very grateful for any suggestions that have been tried and which actualkly work, erspecially as at my advanced age I haven['t got much more hair left to tear out.
Regards,
Bob
Lately I've never remembered to post and ask, surely will be a lot easier than endlessly thumbing through the phone to try and find the right settings. Hoping someone here may have been through this recently and has it fresh on their mind.
With my alarm set, it does activate audibly the way it should while Do Not Disturb is active. However, the screen remains on the dimmed Always On screen. I guess technically speaking, the alarm does not come on top when in Do Not Disturb mode.
I have starred contacts which are allowed to ring through my Do Not Disturb, one of which is my work. When I take a phone call, I can see who is calling me, but have to unlock the phone and sometimes bring the phone app up before I can answer. The actual answer button is not shown on the display.
I guess the most critical is needing help with #2. It might sound petty, but when you are in deep sleep and work calls you at 3am and you miss their call........its rather frustrating on both ends. If I didn't have self-control I would have snapped a few phones in half already.
FWIW, this was prevalent on my S20 Ultra as well (G988U), and my current device is the S20 Ultra (S908U).
Any help or suggestions are much appreciated!
not sure if this will work, but try adding "clock" or whichever alarm app you are using as the Exceptions to the DND.
As for the contacts, try to reproduce it by purposefully starting the DND and have someone call you... if the issue is reproduced, then report it to samsung members app > get help > error report asap so that samsung engineers can look into why you are not getting the notification for that caller.
So I've tried everything suggested so far. I even just recently wiped my phone, and paid close attention to this detail with DND. Eveb freshly wiped, it is still not working as it should (or I should say, as I want it to).
Bumping again in hopes someone else might see it now and know where I need to go. Thanks in advance!
Currently using One UI Beta 5 on my S22.
I have issues with Modes & Routines, specifically the driving mode.
Even after turning the "driving mode" off / deleting it, while in transit the mode pops back and enables on its own.
Hello, i own A3 2017 because that is the size phone i can handle. I have some questions i hope you can help me with.
1) i have data turned off most of the time. When i turn it on, suddenly i feel lag - phone is doing plenty of stuff in the background, most notably checking for google store updates. How can i turn off this thing ?
2) What else can i do ? The phone clearly has plenty of horse power because sometimes it works extremely fast. I click on messages or calls and it opens instantly, i open gallery, camera, same thing. But other times it will take seconds. Clearly something in the background is harming my experience. I disabled all the apps i could, prevented them notifies, removed their permissions, disabled all settings i could, applied other general tweaks i could find online. I cant root my phone since my main bank app that i need requires a stock rom.
3) Anything at all i can do to slightly improve camera ? I have it on default settings and dont know what any settings do nor can i find any guide which settings are best to use to get at least decent pictures.
there are some ways to help a bank app to work on the lineageOS 17 unofficial ROM. Check out debie's telegram group. And when you switched to LineageOS your phone will also be a lot faster, save you several Gigs of space. Also there is gcam that takes great night vision pictures

I am also using A7 2017 in 2023. I haven't rooted it either as I love using Samsung Pay. The best way to keep this device running quick is using the least storage possible. Mine is a 32GB variant, and at around 27GB it lags. As I clear more storage, its performance improves. If you will do the factory data reset then it will work really good for few months, so you can try that too.
About the camera, try lowering the exposure a bit and it gives some really aesthetic photos! You can also try food filter in the camera app as it really pops the colors and gives better results.
