66 days of uptime.. or "post your uptime"


Recommended Posts

I see your 66 days and raise you:

27121 hours = 1130 days = 3+ years.

 

Up since January 5th 2015.

 

To give some context this phone is used to play the on-hold music for our phone system, it replaced a really old cd player which failed. As you might notice I had to file away some of the phones case for the jack to fit in.

 

The phone runs Android 4.1 with the Apollo MP3 player from Cyanogenmod looping some royalty free music.

Well it counts! :laugh:

 

Brownie points for the filing :rofl:

 

But how about some devices with day to day usage!

If you had asked me yesterday my OnePlus One would have been at 40ish days, however it's at 8 hours at the moment.

I'm at 45 hours at the moment. I was messing around in Tasker trying to get it to change the wallpaper to a random picture every 15 minutes and so I had to keep switching it off and on to test. But if I had to guess I would say 2 or 3 weeks normally.

and how do you feel your experience is at 3 weeks? laggy?

Or.. Holy moly how unoptimized android is for being always on, it gets all laggy, skippy. Until I hit smart doctor it kinda improves. Tempted to see how much longer I can go.

Unoptimized Android? What phone and Android version do you have? Sorry but my phone runs just fine with no lags and no need to reboot. Granted, I never get past about 30 days because of monthly security updates.

LG G6...

You don't get security updates? Carrier phones do suck and have a lot of added crap and bloat so blaming Android is probably unfair.

Nope, Unlocked model (Eg no carrier) so no bloat besides that of LG, but yeah, anything non-nexus-non-pixel flatout sucks.

See I thought it was because it may have been an older phone. It's surprised me that that's the case with an LG G6. My G4 was pretty rock solid until the bootloop issue hit. 

 

It struggled with a few games that I used to play, but for most every day tasks/apps it was fine with not being rebooted unless it had an issue

 

I'm currently on a measly 32 hours.

aye, my old g3 didn't have this much hiccups as well, i'm guessing this is just unoptimized build for this phone. After and if i get Oreo, i'll do a clean reset, see if that improves, currently rocking 68 days. hiccupy (I mean, like minor hiccups, no major lag, just whatsapp taking a bit to open, swiftkeyboard )

How did it behave, normally?

Yes it was fine. The only reason it got restarted was because I fell asleep without putting it on charge.

 

I've always found my OnePlus One to be very responsive, now that OnePlus no longer support it i simply update it every couple of months with a custom rom. For a phone i've had for 3 and a half years i'd honestly say it's a responsive as the day I got it.

 

This is the longest i've ever had a phone and not felt the need to upgrade. In comparison my phone previous to that, the Galaxy Nexus, was really slow and laggy after a while. That would get re-started frequently.

Interesting, a little question on longetivity, have you noticed any battery performance decrease?

I play Pokemon Go on my way to and from work, so it's quite hard to judge as that will drain up to 50% of my battery per hour.

 

On days when i don't play Pokemon the phone will still last a normal days usage perfectly fine, however when the phone was new could often get two days out of it.

 

Android 4.4.4 seemed a lot more battery friendly on this phone than 5.0 and beyond. I did notice quite an impact once the 5.0 upgrade was pushed out.

 

These days more than anything I think Google Play Services are responsible for quite a bit of battery drain, when randomly looking at the battery usage at the end of a day that's always on 15-20%.

    • Carol, Windows XP is still being used today only in a small capacity. It is still the best OS there is due to its backwards compatibility with other older software, the customization features, and friendly UI, and people often feel that upgrading to newer OSes is cost prohibitive in specialized Industries or developing countries, so the market share as of now is around 0.2%-0.3%
    • If I could, I would commemorate it the best way possible: Replacing old machines that are still running Windows XP with something more modern, stable and better.     Noone and nothing should be running Windows XP in 2026.
    • Google's new hand-wave reCAPTCHA can be bypassed with a stock photo by Ivan Jenic Image: Screenshot Google is testing a new reCAPTCHA method that asks you to wave at your camera to prove you're human. So, besides solving puzzles and reading distorted text, you can now use your computer’s camera to pass the verification test. When the hand gesture verification is triggered, your browser asks for camera access and prompts you to perform a simple gesture, like a wave or an open palm. Google says it records a short video of the movement and uses AI to extract 21 hand-knuckle coordinates to complete the verification process. The video is then immediately deleted, and Google swears it doesn't keep it. The process alone can be uncomfortable for people who wouldn’t want their biometric data, which hand scans technically qualify as, recorded. But it gets even more nuanced, as early testers discovered that the new hand-waving reCAPTCHA can be passed with a simple stock image. A user on X tested the new challenge using a stock image of a hand fed through OBS Virtual Camera, and it passed. I wanted to verify it, so I tried the same thing. It took me a few tries and a few stock images, but in the end, I was also able to pass the test. I simply had to readjust the stock image of a generic person waving inside OBS, and Google’s mechanism registered it as a legitimate hand gesture. Once again, it didn’t even have to be a video or an AI-generated hand animation. Given the simplicity of the process, the entire action can be automated in minutes. All it takes is a simple Python script to render the new reCAPTCHA method obsolete. And it doesn’t even have to be an AI bot, which is usually used for solving puzzles and other verification methods. The new reCAPTCHA method is still in its early phase, and Google will, hopefully, update its AI to at least reject still images. However, this incident, combined with users’ initial skepticism about Google’s practices regarding user data, likely won’t make too many people wave at the camera anytime soon.
