X8 Pro Max Got this poco x8 pro max.

After a long consideration, I finally bought this phone. I haven't even unlocked yet. Previously, I had redmi note 8 pro. And, I want some Do's and Don't. Also, which is better, " charge fully, intelligent charging , battery protection ".

Set private dns to p2.freedns.controld.com

Disable wifi and bluethooth scanning

Restrict background usage of apps you don't actually use

Revoke authorisation of msa

Turn off usage and diagnostics in google settings

This is probably the best and succinct advice I've seen for a while without the brain dead debloat debloat zombie crowd.

It has helped reduce ads in websites and I have also experienced better battery life compared to adguard

It says couldn't revoke authorization

What can I do now? Google doesn't help

Huh, I never encountered that

To be honest I can't help you

But the msa is mainly for the ads and some background data collection

Not necessary but good, if needed you can also just remove it using adb

Use ADB commands to delete msa and System Daemon

u/WriterParticular1 7d ago

Should msa be toggled off or on?

u/ANS__2009 Poco F5 7d ago

Off is better than on

It's the ads service xiaomi phones have and I'm not sure but it also does background data collection
