[Xiaomi Redmi 3 Questions & Answers] Servaas:
Thank you for taking the time to respond! I realize that the Sony is better in almost every way, but what i'm honestly looking for is someone who has experienced both? The sony, owning it myself is not in my eyes a flagship, its above average. Sure it has a 820, but the most current fw is not the fastest it could be, this compared to my girlfriends Wileyswift Fox, a uk based phone maker, also a great value/cost device in my mind.

Camera, sure it takes great photos, but its sluggish in starting up, or taking rapid photos. And i'm not a big photo maker anyhow, occasional photo of my nieces or my dog or my girlfriend. So I don't really need THE GREATEST photos. You know?

So in that sense i'm very curious about this phone. If its comparable to the Fox one i'm going to be damn excited coupled with the 4100 battery. I am playing more games lately and i have been needing a powerbank. So thats would be a big up for me. How is the heat when it charges does anyone know?

Also curious about ROM support. From what i have read there appears to be some good support seeing as this is out longer then the 3S Pro. Only really read up on that device AFTER ordering the 3 Pro. Anyhow, couple of roms that I noticed were looking good.

About the GPU, how much is the Sony better? I maily do 2d games and have yet to find a 3d one that will make me comftorbale with touch input. I did also order a gamepad for phones, but that will be maily used for emulators and the like.

Thanks for all the input.

All say redmi is budget.

I'd be happy with the redmi over any other phone to be honest not even taking price into consideration.

As far as hardware for money it is OP

As far as android it self, it may not be perfect but it's damn near close.

Almost bought a galaxy edge, but now I don't have a reason too.

[Xiaomi Redmi 3 Questions & Answers] AtomR:
About all the stuff you've written and asked, I would like to answer it in simple way -

You won't notice any much performance difference between the two phones. Forget SoC, forget RAM. If you need better camera go for Xperia Z5 P, if you need just a camera which takes grainy and noisy pictures indoors, go for Redmi 3 Pro. You can see, my only concern is camera. But wait, MIUI seems terrible to some users, some love it. While Xperia's UI is admired my many users, as it's closer to stock. Well, you're on XDA, so you might install a custom ROM. I hope, you got the idea. BTW, if I was you I would not spend 320$~ on Z5, as it really is overpriced. You can easily get Oneplus 3 or G4 Plus by adding more amount, if you don't care about big screen.
[Xiaomi Redmi 3 Questions & Answers] Sean09:
I've recently owned the z5c, z3c, lg g3, moto x play, z3 and now the redmi 3 pro. I prefer the redmi 3 pro. It's great value, performs well, has good mic and sound, amazing battery life, and runs very smooth. Not running marshmallow but it suits my needs. Runs everything perfectly. Provided it supports the band you need i don't think others are worth the excessive price. Z5c was not performing well, had poor battery life, and my call audio echoes. The only gripe with the r3p is the camera isn't the best.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] B4oE:
I recently flashed SuperSU v2.65 through TWRP since this seems to be the only SuperSU zip that flashes without freezing. Once the phone boots up, I update the SuperSU app through the Play Store, which brings me to v2.76. Upon launching the SuperSU app, it asks me to update the binary and then reboot, which runs smoothly. However, once I try to run Adaway, it gives me an error. Also, when I try uninstalling some apps through Titanium Backup Pro version, the app remains even after a reboot. And before anyone asks, yes, I did install BusyBox before launching both apps. Tell me what I need to do to resolve this. Perhaps TWRP is not flashing SuperSU correctly? I am not sure. Just thinking out loud.

Thanks you man, i try 2 different ones and the were freezing at Installing , but this one works... :)

Yup the Axon 7 Have Root (systemless) and i'm afraid if you update via Play Store you lose systemless , but i'm not 100% sure about that , check screenshots

that was exactly what i was going to ask cuz probably he decline or waited to long to accept the request

I'm sorry if I'm taking your post out of context, my apologies if I screw up:

Does that means you already solved your bootloop issue or am I confusing the time stamps with this post and your bootloop post?

If you are past the bootloop, would you be so kind to explain what was wrong and how you fixed it? By updating your bootloop post!!

See, we can't be running around trying to please you, solving you issues because you are frenetically trying to root your phone (no offense intended), that's not how things works. Would you please be courteous and at least update your bootloop post, you did not reply a single time in there and there was people definitely trying to help.

Wow, weird. The phone *thinks* it's rooted. But it definitely is not.

Edit: Actually, I think it is rooted, but nothing persists after a reboot. I can get into /data/data and all the good spots.

But changing DPI/emojis doesn't take.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Dethfull:
Someday, in android 4.4.2, i had exactly your problem.

I used kingroot, (chinese characters in su), only i done to fix, was change the kinguser, to superSu pro and ENGLISH CHARACTERS

:D

Weird noh?

You can edit the flashable update.zip with winrar X86, or peazip X86, (ONLY) without extract the content, only you open the zip, and select the files , delete, and swipe the new files with mouse for recopy the zip architecture, ALL WITHOUT EXTRACTING (this is 100% that the zip file will not corrupt)

Much weird!

I learned this by practical facts...

Hehe

Were you able to get Xposed working?
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] DrakenFX:
yeah for some reason doesn't stick at boot using/modifying build.prop, only way is using either the Terminal or ADB , which instant no reboot and if you reboot will stick.

not yet, is way to much work LoL, i may just Flash the Original Xposed and give it a shot (don't care about Android pay or equivalent)....

backing up system and everything else will report after having xposed install

Xposed (at least one module) is working for me - YouTube Background Play. I haven't tried anything else, yet. AdAway is working, too.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Barsky:
I have experienced this when playing around with Nougat on my 6p. While it was rooted, some root apps simply didn't work.

Never found a solution for Titanium, but either an app update or a newer preview had that eventually working. For Adaway, I had to use a twrp installed Zip and then install the apk. Perhaps that would work. I have not yet dove into rooting my axon 7 yet or I would try it for you.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] charlie.s:
FWIW, I have successfully installed Ti Backup Pro as well as Xposed on my rooted (systemfull!) Axon7. I installed AdAway and Gravity Box under Xposed. Everything seems to be working fine. Gravity Box is problematic because of the mods made by ZTE, but that is no surprise.

Mute key is a must. So if yours is broken ,just open your device. Opening priv is a piece of cake. No screws or anything. You just have to unhinge it.

Then manually press mute ke with a pice of metal.( better if you can get a simple jumper from mobile repair shop)

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jungleexplorer:
I just bought a Z3 D6616 off of eBay that was listed as "Unlocked". To me unlocked means that it will work on other networks, so I did not worry that I was going to use the phone on AT&T. I got the phone today and took it down to get a NanoSim for it (my old phone used a MicroSim). The guy at the AT&T set it up and got the sim installed, and the phone can receive calls, but it has no data service at all. I mean none!. I looking through every article I can find online and they all say that the D6166 is locked to T-Mobile and cannot be configured to receive data on the AT&T network.

Is this true? I really like this phone. Is there any hope of fixing this problem? Please!
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] odunke01:
Check you APN info.

Settings > more > mobile networks > Access point names

Then press the plus sign and enter the details for your carrier. That was how I got mine working.

You mentioned AT&T, I'm going to guess in America and a quick google search gave me these details

https://www.att.com/esupport/article.html#!/wireless/KB424489

APN	- phone

Password	- Not set

WAP Gateway	- proxy.mobile.att.net

WAP Gateway Port	- 80

MMSC	- http://mmsc.mobile.att.net
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jungleexplorer:
Thanks, but I tried that first thing and it did not work. I spent hours on the phone with AT&T and they gave me all the settings over the phone and it did nothing. Do you have the Z3 model D6616 or the D6603? The D6603 can be used with AT&T, but so far I have found no way to get the D6616 to work and nobody else that has either.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] odunke01:
I have the international D6616 version with an unlocked bootloader. Changing the apn was what worked for mine. I am connecting to a German provider, so maybe it is an At&t issue.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] malwake:
It's very possible that the area you are in does not have the supported ATT LTE band that is compatible with your phone. Since the D6616 was designed for T-mobile, it will only have Bands 2, 4, and 12. ATT's primary LTE data band is Band 17, and that is not supported by your phone. ATT also supports band 2, 4, and 5 as well, but there is a good chance that those bands are not in your area by ATT

Hello people

I have a little problem with my OG E977 , which in Venezuela 3G connection does not grab me , I only 2G connection .

I've tried everything , I've placed the rom stock factory , the KDZ e977 of Venezuela 20A and still have the problem, have placed him my backup as well as modem and the sais , but still can not use the 3G connection.

I have been told that the only way to fix it, is that someone pass me your efs backup, and thus change my imei , to see if in this way can fix it.

Anyone who can help me, thanks in advance .

I guess it has to be someone other than Venezuela , or no longer possess this phone .

The backup has to be the E977 , probe with e975 and it did not work :(

Thanks in advance.

[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] e36eury:
Unlocked AT&amp;T Note 7

As long as you aren't on a contract or payment plan in the phone they will unlock it after the return policy is up (14 days). It's all automated through their website and very easy. Doesn't cost a thing.

I just tried to unlock my paid off Galaxy S4 from AT&T. They sent me a pin code that I have to input into the phone. But, the pin won't work unless I insert the sim card of another carrier. So, it is actually a pain in the ass because now I have to find another sim card, probably from T-Mobile, just to unlock the damn phone.
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] e36eury:
Weird. Mine worked fine with my AT&T sim.
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] DuffmasterFresh:
These were the unlock instructions they sent me to unlock my AT&T Galaxy S4:

Instructions:

Unlock Steps - Use Non-AT&T SIM Card

1. Power off the device, remove the battery, and insert a non-AT&T SIM card.

2. Re-insert the battery and power on the device with non-AT&T SIM.

3. The device displays Enter the device unlock code.

4. Enter the eight-digit unlock code.

5. Press OK.

Note: You are allowed five attempts to unlock before your device permanently locks to the AT&T network.

EDIT: I just went online and looked for a different unlock method because I don't have another sim card and I don't want to go to T-Mobile to ask for one. Remove your sim card, power on the phone, go to the dialer and enter #7465625*638*# then enter your unlock code, which should be emailed to you from AT&T after you ask them to unlock it.
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] e36eury:
You can always get a free T-Mobile sim to throw in it for the unlock.

May be the case now, but a year ago when I bought my wife her iPhone 6, it unlocked the first time I hooked it to a computer (about an hour after walking out of the store with it), and my S7e was unlocked after the 14 day return policy was up.

because i'm not an AT&T customer (Cricket) she said she had to manually create a temporary

account so she could submit the unlock request. the first two reps i spoke to were worthless

and kept telling me there was nothing they could do and i had to submit the request online.

finally on the 3rd call i demanded a supervisor and it took her a bit but she managed to figure

it out.

good luck !
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] domineus:
That's nothing. Third call this morning

I have to go back to the store and rescan it so it registers in their system. Seriously, I was told that.

I'll call back in a few minutes - it's been close to an hour. But that's unnerving. Can't they see there's something wrong with the att unlock website? It's rather simple actually.
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] ParishM:
it's a hassle but it can be done
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] domineus:
I called back. Escalated up they said I have to wait 60 days. I said bs and demanded a higher level escalation because the 60 day restriction (which is not documented anywhere on AT&T's current website) is required for post paid customers.

They said reach out to Samsung I said they do not provide unlock codes and refer back to the provider, or AT&T. The on call supervisor (Kenneth, ID CV0271) was the supervisor I spoke to. He said point to the FCC website where it doesn't say 60 days. I point to him. Then he said look at your contract and I said there's no mention of 60 days for subscribers who purchased the device outright and I called him a liar. I demanded a higher level escalation but that's 72 hours.

I am so glad I am not with AT&T. The worst customer service I have ever received
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] ParishM:
yes they tried telling me the 60 days thing too and i showed them on their own webpage where it

says if you are Not an AT&T customer only your device has to meet certain requirements.

[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] spexwood:
To all who are having issues with AT&T reps giving you BS and not unlocking your phones even though you meet all requirements:

I suggest you file a complaint through the Better Business Bureau (BBB). Document the website that states all the requirements needed to unlock a phone and document the fact that you meet them all and are not an ATT customer.

Companies usually take BBB complaints VERY seriously and if they are actually doing something they aren't supposed to be doing, then they will be forced to correct the problem. Plus, they are required by law now to unlock your phones if they are paid for and you aren't using their services.
