[Samsung Gear S3] supernet2Google:
Confirmed working

In addition mine survived heavy abuse at the wave pool in Robinson PA. Only thing I've not tried is diving, cannon balls the s3 survives. Speakers and mic have zero loss in performance.

Was at the wave pool for well over 5hrs with the watch submerged or subject to some heavy swimming/wave riding/5ft+ submersion

Edit: I would not trust using it in the ocean what so ever just pools and about around 5-10ft submersion
[Samsung Gear S3] Redflea:
Even with the initial testing showing that things are okay, I would be cautious about doing this repeatedly. There maybe cumulative damage on the waterproof system of the watch, that won't be evident until it fails.

I don't think we know either way, but clearly doing something that is specifically noted as not supported will have its risks.
[Samsung Gear S3] mrbkkt1:
I've used mine for hanging at the water park, and in the ocean. To be honest, I forgot I was wearing it when I took it in the ocean, and took it off after about 5 minutes. I figure, I'm going to probably get a new watch in a year anyway. But Idk about hardcore swimming or surfing.
[Samsung Gear S3] Phoenix2000:
I used to swim with my Android Wear LG G Watch R, which was classified IP67 if i'm not wrong.

Never had issues with it... until i went relaxing in a heavy salted water pool... Then it died.

Now switched to the Gear S3, and I wonder if this watch, rated IP68, can still go swim. I see some people here do swim with no issues. I would have been surprised given the additional point added to the water resistance.

However this time, ocean and salted pools, i'll avoid swimming with it.
[Samsung Gear S3] Ljusalfheim:
My Samsung Gear S3 Classic successfully survived snorkeling in sea water (Mediterranean) with occasional dives up to 7 metres. Total time under water - about 1 hour. After swimming I rinsed it in fresh water under the tap. A week has past. So far so good. :)

But do it at your own risk - your warranty will be void and no mistake.

Here's the link to the video , if someone's interested.

Went swimming in the Caribbean sea in August. Spent about an hour or two just swimming and splashing about. No problems.... YMMV
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini Accessories] acejavelin:
Any recommendations for tempered glass screen protectors for the A7M? All the ones on Amazon have poor reviews, but even the reviews are questionable. lol
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini Accessories] aaheisenberg:
Did you get anything?
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini Accessories] acejavelin:
No... Just a case, this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01M271SDC

No problems so far or visible scratches from pocket carry yet, GG4 seems pretty good.
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini Accessories] luigibell78:
Glass protector on the 7mini is a waste of time. The screen curves too much around the edges and the protector doesn't sit flush to the screen.

Just use a film one or nothing at all.
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini Accessories] bugxyz:
I'm using flexy glass protector since 7 months.

It is the model for htc 8. It fits perfectly on axon 7 mini.
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini Accessories] koktey14:
Does it fits to edges? And what about the sensor?
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini Accessories] bugxyz:
This is how it looks.

There is a very small area where the screen is not covered by the protection, you can see it in the picture also, but that is very small.

The protection film is 1mm shorter compared to the screen.

For the left and right rounded margins of the screen, the film does not cover it. It covers only the flat part of the screen.

Regarding sensors, I have seen no problem until now.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] illusion_insanity:
With Samsungs stock bootloader for the S3, you have the option of applying updates from Cache partition, external storage, and ADB, would it be possible to flash a custom rom (ex. Cyangenmod) by renaming it Update.zip and moving it to SD card and flashing it?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Cant's use stock recovery to flash any custom ROMs.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] illusion_insanity:
But if it can flash updates couldn't I trick it into thinking a custom rom Is an update?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
The recovery is for flashing ROM updates, not a brand new ROM.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] illusion_insanity:
Well thanks anyways.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
To install a custom ROM, it is usually necessary to erase the existing ROM before installing a new ROM and stock recovery can't do that.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheBone_:
No, but you can use FlashFire on a rooted ROM to install ROMs or ZIPs
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Doplan:
Hello, after owning this phone for around 3 days, I decided to unlock the bootloader, and flash TWRP. The biggest problem is that I had never owned a device similar to this, so I was new to ADB, MiFlash, and all those other different things. I've been looking a lot online, trying to find a great tutorial, and I finally found one that I believe will help a lot of Kate users. Let me start off by saying that I don't take ANY credit for this whatsoever. I found this tutorial on Xiaomi.eu forums, and I had to look very hard. That's why I am sharing it with you.

All credits go to t-ryder @ xiaomi.eu forums. His tutorial was the one that helped me successfully unlock my phones bootloader and install TWRP.

What you will need is the file that he provided which can be found here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1cyJDH0uIykTGpOMUY1N2pENVE/view . This file contains MiFlash, ADB tools, fastboot rom, TWRP, and the file required to unlock the device. Inside, there is a .pdf file that if you follow carefully like I did, you will have an unlocked bootloader.

I am personally running Xiaomi.eu ROM now, but I am planning on trying some kenzo roms later. The most important thing is to make backups.

The tutorial is step by step, so you should have no issues. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me, I will help you as much as possible.

Hope this has helped you. :)

Thank you

Perfect! Thank you to help me find my way through the XRN3 Kate jungle !

I guess the same as here: http://forum.frandroid.com/topic/24...xiaomieu-mi-globe-cm/?page=68#comment-3709384

It's in French, open it with Chrome (for translation), posted by Kuan (click revealed hidden content). I did it few days ago for my wife phone (kate) and worked well.

However, I guess it's better because we don't have to deal with fastboot rom.

[ZTE Axon 7 Accessories] krazydonutboy:
I like using magnetic mounts, but I don't like using a case or anything on the phone. Before, I would slip the metal plate under the back cover of the phone, but that's obviously not possible with the Axon. Has anyone found a stick-on magnetic plate that gets close to matching the silver of the Axon? I have found two that might be close on Amazon, but I am not confident about either:

1. Looks like more of a brushed finish: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B011P24DCM/

2. Is iPhone silver, but looks close to Axon silver. Not great picture quality though, so hard to tell: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01J52T60I/
[ZTE Axon 7 Accessories] necromnicon:
Did you ever decide on anything?
[ZTE Axon 7 Accessories] krazydonutboy:
I got the iottie and it was all scratched up right from the box, and the finish didn't match well anyway...more of a raw brushed metal that the Axon's coated metal look. I returned it.
[ZTE Axon 7 Accessories] wyrethewolf:
Purchased https://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Drive-One-Touch-Smartphone-Mount/dp/B00KNU9L1Q the mount comes with both a black, and a charcoal grey magnetic mount. The grey mount nearly matches perfectly... it is slightly darker than the phone. Mount works beautifully. Pricey, but it works flawlessly, and has many mounting options included.
[ZTE Axon 7 Accessories] MrMD69:
Magnetic mounts are safety to use ? Because I read somewhere in the web that magnetic field can have some bad effect to overall connectivity.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HTC_FUZE:
Hi,

Nexus 6 is very slow to adjust the brightness automatically. It takes several seconds to light up the display if I move from inside to outside. My Lumia 950XL is much faster. Is possible to improve it?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HTC_FUZE:
No one?

I think you will find most people turn it off. Auto brightness has never been very fast and half the time is more of a hassle. I am sure if you look over the AOSP code you can adjust it.

I fixed it myself. If any one needs help pim me:D
[Windows RT General] FrostyXDA:
So, Microsoft just announced Windows 10 on ARM. But not just some stripped down, Windows Phone/RT variant, like W10M. This is full Windows 10.

It also has support for the full x86 win32 library of applications, with some emulation magic that they put in, which appears to run blazingly fast somehow.

What an incredible feat this emulation is.

But my question is: What does this mean for us, Windows RT users?

I want to put this in the Windows RT Development and Hacking section, but I haven't made enough posts n stuff
[Windows RT General] Wack0Distractor:
Nothing at all. The announcement is Windows 10 for ARM64, which is of no use to Windows RT devices, that use 32-bit ARM v7.
[Windows RT General] domboy:
I am hoping this will mean a new non-Pro Surface with Windows 10 ARM will be coming. But yeah, nothing for Windows RT devices.
[Windows RT General] FrostyXDA:
:<

Shame. But is there a possible way that we could maybe make it run? How different is the architecture? How hard would it be? Would they make an edition for ARM32?

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] skygirl:
I bought my V20 directly - not thru veizon and it is activated on the Verizon network. When I try to install Verizon Visual Voicemail, it says my device is not compatible. I tried downloading the apk and it "installs" but when I try to open it I get "This app is not supported on this device." Has anyone found a way to make this work? I have to assume that if I'd bought this from Verizon, it would work.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] CharlzO_2000:
Stock, mine worked fine. Rooted and running a 996 ROM though, I'm in the same boat. I haven't tried REAL hard yet, but if you come across a work-around, let me know.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] jdmsohc22:
I'm working on it now, trying to find a fix for this one..
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] NexusFan9219:
I had the same issue, using my unlocked v20 (us996) on Verizon. Went to the store and the tech guy says that the visual voicemail service will be soon discontinued and something else will be released and to wait for it, but as of now there is no way to get the voicemail app on phones that aren't Verizon.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] jdmsohc22:
Hmm, ok so I got the visual voicemail app that came on WETA rom, but it doesn't do voice to text like I was expecting... Buttttttt, that's because Verizon charges for it and I'm not paying $2.99 for something that Google Voice does for free lol..

Well of course there's always "something", right..?!?

Google Voice says it doesn't work with my provider...! Whelp, back on the hunt for a VVM app I can use, that's hopefully free..
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] CharlzO_2000:
In our case, I actually do have a Verizon phone, just using a ROM for a different model. Was hoping to find a build.prop edit, or something that would let me re-label the phone back correctly so Verizon would see it. I know that they said that 7.1+ would build the VM into the native system, instead of an app - maybe that's what they were talking about? My other issue is that I use Google Voice with a 2nd number for a business line, so I can't exactly use it for my main number's VM.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] jdmsohc22:
Did you set up Google Voice on your VS995..?? Mine doesn't want to play nicely with Google Voice..
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] CharlzO_2000:
I did, with my 2nd number, and it's been fine since. I rarely use it for calls, but I use it for incoming, and for it's VM. So far, it seems to work fine. Call comes in correctly, goes to VM (which reminds me I have to change my message lol).
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] jdmsohc22:
Ok so i had google voice for a few hours and it was cool.. But I figured I'd try to stick with a more oem approach, so I found the Pixel XL dialer.. Now I'm tweaking that to work for me, love the visuals on it that's for sure..!

Try to boot in recovery, then wipe data/factory reset

Yes but how ?

The fastboot mode simply reboot the phone (don't appear)

The recovery install directly the update, and if i remove the sdcard, he say "Software update failed, please redownload the file (Normal because there is not any more the file update.app)

And i can't shutdown my phone

I waits that it is no more battery

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VikingSteel:
Hello, first of all I wanna mention that I'm a beginner with Android and stuff, I know how to root and use Xposed Framework and a few other things, but I'm definitely no expert. And that's why, after I've been doing some research but failed to find what I needed, I decided to ask the experts here. So here goes : I need to find a way to block someone in Whatsapp without them appearing as blocked on my device. Practically to cut off all incoming (and outcoming, if possible) messages or calls from that person, but without them appearing as blocked in Whatsapp, in Contact - Settings - More - Block/Unblock. Plain and simple, I need to cut off any comunication between my Whatsapp account and his, just like in the normal blocking, only that I don't want this to show on my Whatsapp in any way, I need to make it look like he's not blocked but just not answering, like in the case of normal blocking. It doesn't matter if there's a third party app that does this, or some Whatsapp tweaks, or whatever method, as long as it can do it. The device is a Huawei Y 635, running Android 4.4.4. KitKat, rooted. I am grateful to hear any idea about how something like this can be done. If it can be done. So, thank you in advance for your time, and I am waiting your answers.

Hello everyone I'm currently on Simple Mobile(T-Mobile mvno)

Something crazy happening yesterday when I was traveling in the sticks after work. I looked at my phone and saw an "R" and and "H" next to my signal bars. I pulled the notification shade down and it said "AT&T". So I made a call, it worked. I went in and enabled "data roaming" and opened a web page..

I've dealt with prepaid MVNO's for at least 10 years and I've never seen or experienced carrier roaming on a prepaid MVNO. Pretty big deal in my opinion!

My connection speeds where I live on T-Mobile is about 20mb/down

What are your experiences?
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] mrbracht:
I'm thinking about getting simple mobile. I'm currently on MetroPCS and I can't ever understand what the reps are saying. But I always pull around 40mbps and 25mpbs on speed test. T-mobile has gotten a lot better over the past year, it's insane. I get service where I didn't with Verizon. $60 a month compared to 120.. Yeah, I'll keep t-mobile mvno
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] RealiZms:
I tried like hell to get in metro but couldn't find a store near me. Sims on their site were sold out.. Beat myself up for a week and found simple. I think they have one more plan than metro but the full unlimited plan is still 60.

I agree T-Mobile is on it lately. They used to really suck in my area.

But Simple let's you roam on AT&T(probably not on purpose lol)! Pretty big deal if you ask me! I was honestly shocked how easy it was was setting my phone up and transferring my number. Overall I'm extremely pleased with Simple
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] mrbracht:
Well that's good to hear. I plan on switching to them next month. That's the joy of prepaid stuff. No contract and free to move around as you please
