1. Fixing Battery Drain (MagicOS)

MagicOS is efficient, but some settings are hidden. Let's maximize that huge battery.

Steps 1-3: Power Tuning

Smart Charge: Go to Settings > Battery > More Battery Settings. Enable "Smart Charge" and "Smart Battery Capacity". This prevents overcharging heat.
App Launch: Go to Battery > App Launch. Manually manage apps like Facebook/Instagram. Turn OFF "Run in Background" for them.
5G Power Mode: In Mobile Network settings, enable "5G Power Saving Mode". It intelligently switches to 4G when high speed isn't needed.

2. Solving Display Yellow Tint

The X9b's eye protection features can sometimes make the screen look too yellow.

Steps 4-6: Color Calibration

Eye Comfort: Check if "Eye Comfort" or "Circadian Night Display" is ON. Turn them OFF to see true white colors.
Color Mode: Go to Display & Brightness > Colour Mode & Temperature. Set it to "Vivid" and move the temperature slider slightly towards "Cool".
Video Enhancer: Turn OFF "Video Enhancer" for YouTube. It forces HDR-like brightness which alters colors unnaturally.

3. Fixing 108MP Camera Shutter Lag

The 108MP sensor captures huge files, which can slow down the Snapdragon 6 Gen 1.

Steps 7-9: Speed Capture

Disable AI Photography: In the viewfinder, turn OFF the "AI" icon. AI processing adds 1-2 seconds of delay to every shot.
High-Res Mode: Only use "HIGH-RES" mode for landscapes. For daily snaps, use the default photo mode (pixel binned) for instant capture.
Storage: Ensure you have at least 10GB free. Low storage space drastically slows down image processing and saving.

💡

Magic Tip: Use "Honor Share" to transfer files to PC quickly instead of cables. It's faster and reduces port wear.

4. Removing UI Stutter & Freezes

Is your phone feeling slow? It might be the virtual RAM.

Steps 10-12: OS Turbo X

RAM Turbo: Go to System & Updates > RAM Turbo. If you have the 12GB variant, you don't need extra virtual RAM. Turn it OFF (if option exists) or ignore it.
OS Turbo X: Ensure your phone is updated. "OS Turbo X" is a software feature that keeps apps alive in the background. Keep your software on the latest patch.
Yoyo Suggestions: Disable "Yoyo Suggestions" folder in home screen settings. It constantly refreshes in the background, using resources.

Warning: The "Ultra-Bounce" display is tough, but not scratch-proof. Use a screen protector to prevent micro-scratches.

Additional Maintenance (Steps 13-15)

Step 13 (System Manager): Use the built-in "System Manager" app to run a virus scan and cleanup weekly.
Step 14 (Restart): Honor phones have great uptime, but a restart every 3 days keeps the UI buttery smooth.
Step 15 (Reset): If network issues persist, Reset Network Settings before doing a full factory reset.
