Phoenix OS is an Android x86 operating system where we can install Android OS on our PCs or laptops. Until now, Phoenix OS is arguably the best after the remix OS where the advantage is that it is still being developed by developers.
Why can this be considered an advantage? Of course, if the developer continues to update, then improvements and interesting features will continue to be present in Phoenix OS compared to Remix OS which has retired early.
Until now, when this post was made, Phoenix OS was already at version 3.0.7, of which the Android version used was version 7.1 for 64-bit laptops and PCs. As for the 32-bit version, Phoenix OS is in version 1.5.0 with Android 5.1 version.
This Phoenix OS 3.0.7 update brings updates to
- Advertising service optimization
- Fixed some crash issues and improved stability.
When using Phoenix OS, we often encounter internet data that suddenly runs out, even though we are not downloading anything or opening any applications. If you use an internet data meter application, it looks like there is activity in and out of data that we don’t know what application is using it.

In this post misterhidayat.blogspot.com will tell you 3 ways to overcome the phoenix os that is wasteful of quota, starting from the easy to the extreme. Here are the steps
How to Overcome Phoenix OS that Wastes Internet Quota
1. Using NoRoot Firewall App
The first way is to use a firewall application. This application is actually a VPN application where you can also surf in cyberspace by opening sites that are blocked by the government or that cannot be accessed in our country.
Well apart from being a VPN connection as the name suggests NoRoot Firewall can filter any internet connection that we are allowed to use. Through it we can know what applications are always connected to the internet without us knowing it. The method,
1. Download the NoRoot Firewall application on the google play store (here)
2. After successfully downloaded, run the application.
3. Get to the initial screen of the application, please press Start and allow VPN connection
So from now on, every time there is an application that uses the internet, the internet data will be visible.
4. Open in tab Pending Access there is a list of any applications that request an internet connection. Please tap Deny on suspicious apps or those you don’t want to connect to the internet.
In addition, in the tab menu Apps You can also check which applications you allow or not when connected to mobile and WiFi connections.
5. Done.
Easy isn’t it? but you need to know there are drawbacks to using this application, what are the disadvantages of NoRoot Firewall?
Phoenix OS is mostly used by people including you to play games, right? like PUBG or Mobile Legends or other games. Now when you only allow NoRoot Firewall to access these games. The game will lag. Why lag? because the VPN connection affects PING especially for online games.
2. Block Phoenix Os . Ads
Advertisements on Phoenix Os can also be wasteful of quota. Now the second way is to block these ads. Ads usually appear on free applications that we usually install on the Google Play Store. How to block the most effective ads in all applications and games you can read on

After you have followed the method above, now is the time to remove ads on unnecessary applications in the latest version 3.0.7. That is deleting the app PhoenixOS VIP.
How to enter the folder storage – android – system – app – search folder PhoenixOS VIP then delete. Done now you no longer see ads on the application.
3. Disable System Apps
This third method is the most recommended, why? because of this app ringleader internet that is active continuously especially when you first log in to phoenix os. This is based on experience misterhidayat.blogspot.com alone all this time.
Many suggest in facebook groups or tutorials on the internet to disable google services. Actually not completely successful, because the internet will only be inactive when connected to google services such as google play store etc.
Meanwhile, if there are applications outside of Google, for example game helpers that always ask for internet access without us realizing it, of course the quota will still be wasteful, right? it is also impossible for us to disable the game helper application because we use it to play games.
Then what is the most effective way? The trick is that you don’t need to disable or disable Google Services, but disable system apps, namely apps Download Manager 7.1 and Download 7.1.1.
Use titanium back up pro, download the titanium application, you can search on google or here misterhidayat.blogspot.com also provides a pro version along with the license so you just use it.
1. Download the apk and license (here)
2. Please install the apk and then the license apk, if you have opened the titanium back up application earlier
3. If there is a root access warning, please allow it
4. Select tab Backup/Restore in the top menu row, then look for the Download Manager 7.1.1 application and Download 7.1.1
If you have found it first click and hold on Download Manager 7.1.1 until a pop up menu appears then press FREEZE!
If it is then press and hold on the application Download 7.1.1 same as the previous step and press FREEZE!
Finished.
Now you will no longer see internet data that keeps running in the background and draining your internet quota.
Deficiency the method above is that you cannot download applications from the play store. Please use an alternative google play store like apk pure. and the method above also makes you unable to update the latest phoenix operating system if there is an OTA update.
But don’t panic, please go back into the titanium backup and look for the downloaded application that has been FREEZE! to UN-FREEZE or DE-FROST to return to normal. How easy isn’t it?
