[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] lirong:
Has anyone had the opportunity to compare these two phones in daily usage?

Interested in perspectives on things like performance, battery life, screen....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] Omar04:
Galaxy S7 eats the Google Pixel for breakfast. Had them both and S7 its way superior. I got rid of the Pixel and kept the S7.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] Davelli0331:
Personally, I'd go with the Pixel.

I have the S7 Edge. My wife has a Pixel XL, she had a Nexus 6P before that and a N6 before that. Before the S7 I had a Nexus 6, and before that an S2 then S4. All that to say I'm pretty familiar with both Samsung and Google phones.

I left the N6 for the S7 primarily for the camera and hardware upgrades. At first I didn't mind the slow updates from AT&T. It irritated me how quickly my wife's N6P got Nougat, but I still preferred the speed and camera of my S7.

Once she got her Pixel XL, though, I went into immediate regret mode and wish I'd waited. That's easy to say in retrospect, of course.

Battery wise, her Pixel easily outlasts my S7. She can go a couple of days without a recharge, mine has to be recharged once during the day and at night. Our usage patterns are similar enough that it's not a factor.

Performance is about equal from a user experience standpoint. I don't perceive one as being faster than the other. I don't know how the technical specs compare.

The camera on the Pixel is sick. The detail and color it picks up easily outpaces the S7's, and the S7 has an excellent camera. I'd say as of this post the Pixel's camera is the one to beat.

The Pixel is obviously easy to root and flash, I know that from my N6 days. I didn't think I'd miss that, but I do.

I rather like the TouchWiz UI but after a while that stopped making up for the slow GUI updates from Samsung/AT&T.

Just my $.02, might be an unpopular opinion in this forum.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] QRhinehardt:
Has the Pixel been released for AT&T? I thought it was a verizon exclusive.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] twizt3d:
It's a Google phone, works with any Carrier, just has to be bought outright
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] farfromuman:
One thing the Pixel will currently not do is WIFI calling on AT&T which is a show stopper for me. Once you get used to this feature it is hard to go back.

So im trying to install the new BO5 update but when it finishes downloading if i click on update it will just go back to the settings without doing nothing. What should i do? i currently dont have an sdcard to the manual install
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] kodrnusa:
Download it from here: http://www.ztedevice.com/support/detail?id=9824F5AD299B49D8A2EE4227CFB0DB8A

Put it on internal sd card and click check for updates. You must unzip it first I think

Or this link: http://dl1.ztems.com/zxmdmp/downloa...es/HK/ZTE/ZTE A2017G/372555/fota_B16MR_B18.up

In the zip is a folder and in this folder is the update.zip. Save the update.zip to the SD card. Then go to the settings of the phone and select Updates and the update appears and can be installed.

There are some great multiprotocol IM programs out there for windows mobile but if you are looking for the official yahoo mobile client try this link:

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] last2kn0:
Official means its actually made by Yahoo. Use a dictionary... I don't know if you have to pay, I guess if you are sending through sms or if you are using your data plan, yes.

Agile, IM+ are multi-protocol clients that can be used as alternatives. Use the search function of the forum to find posts on these or use Google please.

Guys, check xda on youtube (twrp tutorial for honor 8) in the first minute, TK mentioned that he downloaded a cutom ROM to test ,and he said that Isn't available on XDA

YEAAAAAAAAH
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] zinko_pt:
Which variant of H8?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] PalakMi:
He didn't mention it, but I expect L04 and L09 , because both are compatible with the official TWRP
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] zinko_pt:
But if it is any of the 64gb variants, then it could mean all variations are now supported.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] PalakMi:
the models mentioned are the 32gb version for US (L04) and EU (L09)

for the 64gb variants (L14 & L19) nothing confirmed yet
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] adriansticoid:
Could that be AOSP based?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] PalakMi:
I don't know
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] adriansticoid:
Let's hope so. :)
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] tinnef:
Nope, he mentions it IS available on xda, and even points towards it. It is the NCSROM which is also visible in the video.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] PalakMi:
I guess I didn't hear well :)
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] PalakMi:
I guess I was right, unofficial CM13 is coming to honor 8 (look at XDA's twitter account)

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muabaylentroi:
I have a problem with my HTC One M8 after running RUU to Stock. It's not charging.

My phone only charges fine in Fastboot AC mode. If I turn it off then plug it to a power outlet it Battery Icon with Lightning will appear but it will disappear again then appear. More like a connect and disconnect behaviour.

If I let it charge like that way, my phone will get hot soon.

I tried charging it in Fastboot AC which works I'm in 60% now which I cant get in a Turned off charging. Waiting for it to go 100%. Some said it is a hardware problem. But for now I don't have time to go to a technician. So as much as possible I want to try to test things out. I bought it 2nd hand.

My pc can detect my phone and I can flash things. It's only problem is not charging if leave fastboot mode. Here is my info:

my tablet is rooted with supersu.

I have copied the script as below in a text file, kept in root directory with necessary permissions.

su

setprop service.adb.tcp.port 5555

stop adbd

start adb

I am running it in a terminal emulator with root access at tablet.

when running from $ i.e. without root( error message appeared as su not found).

when running from # (after executing su in emulator manually & deleting su from the file), it is running fine.

I think, script file need to be root permitted ?

Dont know how ?

can anyone help ? please.

[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] peterk-1:
I've posted this as a new thread to separate fastboot and kedacom driver from the other W10 issues AND IT IS AT YOUR OWN RISK.

Apologies if I've reinvented the wheel - I haven't found any related posts

I updated the Kedacom usb driver in Device Manager by manual selection of the OnePlus Android Bootloader Interface and fastboot access worked. However a PC boot later and "kedacom" was back and a manual update required.

I made the changes below and 2 reboots later no sign of "kedacom" and reboots of the OP3 to bootloader cause W!0 to load the OnePlus Android Bootloader Interface device.

1) Find the "kedacom" driver.

There is a command line utility in Windows "pnputil.exe" ( see full syntax and use at https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/windows/hardware/ff550423(v=vs.85).aspx )

that lists all non-core Windows drivers that are installed. The command can be run from any location so running from R:\junk\> this "pnputil /e >drivers.txt" will create a text file in R:\junk called drivers.txt.

A search of the file for "kedacom" finds this entry:

Published name : oem39.inf

Driver package provider : Google, Inc.

Class : Kedacom USB Device

Driver date and version : 08/28/2016 11.0.0.0

Signer name : Microsoft Windows Hardware Compatibility Publisher

I DON'T KNOW IF "oem39.inf" IS A FILE NAME UNIQUE TO MY PC SO CHECK!!!!!

In the same file I located the "fastboot" driver (you can find the inf file used from Device Manager: device> properties> details tab > in "property name" box select "inf name")

Published name : oem36.inf

Driver package provider : OnePlus, Inc.

Class : Android Phone

Driver date and version : 05/24/2012 6.0.0.0

Signer name : Unknown

Note it is not WHQL signed. ( Unsigned drivers and Windows 10 and W10 Pro needs a full page. Depending on your W10 version and when it was installed (see https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/windows_hardware_certification/2016/07/26/driver-signing-changes-in-windows-10-version-1607/) then "out of the box" W10 will only use WHQL certified drivers (hence some of the Anniversary edition problems and the also the recent spate of op3 problems????). I now run Windows in "test mode" with no issues. Random google link https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/enable-test-mode-windows-10-ajibola-okubanjo.

I now deleted the "kedcom" driver with the command "pnputil /d oem36.inf " .

Note: pnputil with /d will not delete an inf file for any "working" device that is connected to the PC - so you can't delete an active driver inf file by accident. Look at the syntax link above to force a delete.

I believe that the kedacom version number (Driver date and version : 08/28/2016 11.0.0.0) may indicate that it is part of Google's WinUSB android driver set. Could it be installed when you attempt to download the OP3 drivers from the phone "CD drive" ? I've got other Google android devices and have had no issues following the "deletion". In fact I cleaned out a stack of oemxx.inf files that had accumulated through the use of various devices, one click driver installations, Google v9 drivers etc.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] czajunia:
Phone: LG G2 D802 32GB

Do you know if it's possible to recover the data after flashing a KDZ with LG Flash Tool using "CSE Flash" method? I completely forgot that this method wipes everything. :(

After unsuccessfully flashing Nougat (going from MM ResurrectionRom) I had to go back to stock and realized afterwards that all my data was gone. I manged to make a full image of the new data partition and tried to run file recovery software on it (photorec and foremost) but it doesn't seem to find much apart from a handful of files (about 400MB out of 23GB) and there are none of the images / videos stored previously in the DCIM folder.

Does it mean that going back to stock not only wipes the data partition but also changes the partition table making the recovery impossible? Do you have any other ideas how to recover the files? Do you know if that's even possible in such case? Many thanks.

I assume the build prop edit changes the device name. Therefore lg up won't recognize it. You will need a custom .dl file with the name edited.

No one has been able to fastboot flash anything because LG doesn't natively allow it. There is technically no way to get back to original stock or use system.img and flash. Best option is to reboot into TWRP but even some of us, myself included, are having issues with that for some strange reason, while others are doing it no problem.
