Re: Public statement needed here in the forum about the data leaks
I agree @madbilly. But reading some other threads it seems some people have lost their trust, I might be wrong. On another thread I suggested a independent authority or body of some kind to investigate the matter and report on the matter and give feedback on their findings inspecting the server the data was sent to, investigate who had access to the info on the server and who had access to the server in question. What do you think? Would that put your mind at ease if HMD appointed such a independent team of specialists to investigate? Would like to hear or rather read your opinion. Pardon if my question is off-topic in this thread.
Re: What you need to know about your privacy and the alleged “data breach” on Nokia 7 Plus phones
If I may make a suggestion. The only thing I would assume would put current users at ease is to get a independent authority or institution to look at what happened, look at the devices that sent the data to china and to physically visit the server, check the data on the server and see who had access to the server and data on the server and publish a report on their findings. That might put current users at ease, show Nokia is open and is in the clear about what happened and that was a honest mistake that took place and that people can have confidence in Nokia to sort out anything that happens now and in the future and people can rest assured the matter has been taken care of and dealt with when they became aware of it. And that the mistake was rectified in the Feb. SP.
That's how I would have handled it. As I would think a independent authority with credentials would show Nokia takes the matter seriously and takes it's client's personal data and security seriously. And is willing to prove it at all costs. Just a suggestion and my opinion.

Re: Disabling Evenwell apps
We can only go by file names, I think a lot of the apps are just leftovers from Chinese variant ROM's for Nokia devices that weren't completely removed for the global releases. Some of the apps do seem to work in global variants (like customer feedback, HDR service, etc) so it's hard to know which ones are actually doing something.Grobar said:I have disabled all 35 Evenwell apps on my Nokia 5, and phone runs smoother than ever. Also battery life is improved significantly.
I don't know what they do and should I enable some of them, are they really just a bloatware or am I missing something important for system to work properly, but for now phone works without any issues.
Another problem is even if the app has no real use we don't know how the OS is coded and if functionless fragments of a China variant app are there to prevent something else from breaking. HMD should clarify what the apps are for or (ideally) remove them entirely from global variants in a future update if they aren't actually needed.

Public statement needed here in the forum about the data leaks
Hi team HMD,
I'm sure you're all aware of the news that's breaking about your Android phones sending personal data to domains in China. How you handle this and keep your customers and community up to date will be a big test - it could make or break the company.
I'm strong advocate of transparency and openness, I believe it is the best way to earn trust. HMD desperately need to regain some trust in the wake of this news.
I think you would all feel the same in our shoes and many of you may do, since you probably all use HMD's Nokia phones on a daily basis. Maybe your family do too.
Even if you're not as concerned as we are about the data leaks I know that you're all serious about rebuilding the Nokia phones business and bringing the brand back to the world. I'm sure the last thing you want to do is damage the reputation of the brand, so you need to do all you can avoid further damage being done by being silent.
I strongly recommend that you make a public statement here on the community forum to show the members here that you respect their concerns and take them seriously. If you don't do this then you'll struggle to regain trust.
Thanks for reading

Re: Nokia 5 Battery Drain issue
Factory data reset is NOT working !!! I tried it (unfortunately) After the Feb. update my Nokia 5 battery is empty over night. Even delete all Apps only Whatsapp left, the battery is empty within around 7 hours standby - That sucks. The last update causes more problems than fix problems. Even my 3210 lasts longer battery... Really not satisfied
Re: Disabling Evenwell apps
I haven't used ADB, those 35 apps are from the app list within the phone. Maybe it's different from model to model, I'm using Nokia 5 (TA-1053).Daniel G M said:Only 35 apps ?
Try listing the apps using adb.
You will get more.
For eg : you will only see
com.evenwell.powersaving.g3.overlay.base.s600ww in the phone app list
there is another app com.evenwell.powersaving.g3 which will not show up in the app list
