[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjbouw:
Hi,

I'm wondering if the s4 mini has true black screen values when in total darkness. Mine seems to be a faint glowing gray when showing black colors. On my S4 (the big one) black is truly black, my Note 3 had this as well. Now i'm wondering if this is because at one point my s4 mini's screen was replaced, and i got a bad screen, or has samsung used older amoled screens like the one on the S3? What are your screens like? Also, has the VE (i9195i) edition updated the screen? I can only see the issue when in a totally dark room, under normal light i can't detect it. Would like to know, cause i love reading at night :)
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] civicsr2cool:
the s4 mini was one of the first to use a s-stripe technology if i remember correctly and that is superior than the pentile on the other devices you have and most other Samsung phones as of late.. that is except for burn in and degrading. The screen on my 9195 had screen burn in within months of owning it and after the first year had a solid yellow tint permanently on it. Oled degrades fast and maybe that what you're finally noticing?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjbouw:
I do not notice a yellow tint, just a faint glow in the dark, as if there is a backlight active.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] helium314:
I have 2 screens here, from I9192 and I9195 and both don't display true black
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjbouw:
Ok, thanks for confirming this. Anyone with a i9195i (ve) here? I reckon they probably used the same screens.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] civicsr2cool:
I have rebuilt all models, they use the same(ish) screens. the ribbon cables are different but the displays appear to be the same.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheLogicalGamer:
Hi I found the services responsible for system updates, and need to disable them via init.d at boot for a rom I'm working on.

I make a new document in gedit on linux named 00 (no extention) and type the following.

#!/system/bin/sh

su -c com.google.android.gms/.update.SystemUpdateService

(all one line)

su -c com.google.android.gms/.update.SystemUpdateGcmTaskService

(also all one line)

Save and close. Then add to /system/etc/init.d

However when I boot the rom, and before even checking for updates I see Tmobile is pleased to blah blah blah

....

I can confirm that these same commands work via terminal emulator

su

pm disable com.google.android.gms/.update.SystemUpdateService

pm disable com.google.android.gms/.update.SystemUpdateGcmTaskService

The scripts are automatically given the correct permissions when the rom is built so I'm at a loss for what could be causing the issue. Thanks for any help guys.

Also I have added init.d to boot.img, and have busybox installed.

Can confirm that normal pm commands in init.d scripts disable non system apps just fine, but not system apps or services.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheLogicalGamer:
I was trying to disable the wrong service, and init.d was not working at all. Also the commands used where not correct syntax.

The command I used in an su.d script is the returned services name after disabling it with terminal emulator. Instead of the ./ method.

Hi,

Is there any way to DISABLE the T9 mode permanently?

I really hate T9 :(

Is there any registry key or something for this?

Thanks.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General] dabs:
I am having the exact same problem. (16 button version touch dual btw)

I am sure the is a reg setting that will do it, but so far all I have managed to do is either disable HTC's keyboard software or jam the buttons in numerical mode.

Im fairly certain that someone who knows their way around the wm6 registry could find a fix.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General] mattie01:
I thought when you turn it off on the soft keyboard it stayed off?
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General] who_else:
Not really, it reactivates itself all the time.

I found here a CAB File which claims to do this job, but i wasn't able to give it a try. So here it is, but keep it in mind: Use it at your own risk.

[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General] dabs:
I suspect thats the cab that jammed my keypad in numeric mode.

I highly reccomend you do not run this on a 16 key touch dual
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General] LarsMK:
Tja, testet, og det den gjør er å slå av alt annet enn nummer. Med andre ord nesten verre enn xT9 :eek:
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General] LarsMK:
Oh, sorry...wrong language :D

What I wrote was "I just tested, and all it does on my 16 key is to turn off anything but number input. So, in other words it's almost worse...:eek: "
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General] dabs:
;)

I am spending time getting to know the reg on the dual, hopefully will find a fix, but as I said - this is probably trivial for someone who knows what they are doing.

Is there a way to mute notifications while you are on a phone call. Like an option "mute notification while on call" or "silence notification while on phone"?

As it's annoying when someone spams you on texts or whatsapp messages while you are on a phone call and you continuously here the notification sound :rolleyes:

I'm pretty sure you can individually set these settings within each app - whatsapp should have this option in Notification options as well as big texting apps like Textra.

I agree.. i don't have that issue with the V20 either. But i really can't find it in the M9... very odd. I guess i'm blind. On the V20, i don't even think i did the setup, it was automatic. Which should be by default logically.

Hi,

I just received the teclast p80h tablet I ordered. The problem is that it has some chinese rom installed.

I tried downloading firmware from teclast but it has nothing on my id (D4C7).

I tried using the old tablet firmware id (D4C4) using the sp flash tool, but when I try to download it does nothing.

Any ideas?

Hello World

I need to know something

Since the last Netflix update, it's now possible to download our TV Shows, but here is the thing:

I don't have too much space in my internal sd card whereas in my external I have 64Go available (almost)

Do somebody knows a way to create a symbolic link to change the location of the app data ?

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andydraysen:
I recently noticed some problems with N900A. The bluetooth started to go on a loop of restarting and now it can't find any devices to pair with. Originally I thought it was an issue with the rom I had (aurora) so I put a new rom on (darklord, think) but still nothing. Bluetooth turns on but I can't find devices and other devices can't find me. At this point I'm certain it's hardware. My question, is it easy or even possible to replace the bluetooth device on the note 3?

[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] srimany_sanket:
I just got the OTA for 7.1.1 on my unlocked Pixel XL in the UK yesterday and the build number says NMF26Q. I cannot seem to find this build number anywhere, not even on the Google OTA listings (latest one there is NMF26O). Has anyone else received this as well? :confused:

I'm stock and unrooted.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] s1dest3pnate:
Not surprised to hear this. The OTAs must not be unified across the 3 variants (Europe, Verizon, US/Other) as we've seen historically so far with the previous builds . The only differences are likely to be small things related to the carriers/telecoms of the particular region, like baseband changes, maybe VoLTE/Wifi Calling stuff, etc.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Rox598:
Wish Google would label the updates right for regions if they're gonna do this though.

Aaaand of course as I type this a check the wesbite actually does say "Europe" and "Verizon" in them

Not for the 7.1.1 version though. I only see the NMF26O build, and it's simply labeled as Dec 2016.

[MENTION=6298645]erfanoabdi[/MENTION], [MENTION=490110]janjan[/MENTION], any thoughts on this? :confused:
[Moto Z Guides, News, & Discussion] juliospinoza:
I know what you meant. In my moto X I flashed a boot of a Chinese version that was completely incompatible with the American model. And I have to wait until the boot of the Moto X pure version was updated. I think that the problem is when you mess with a "newer" bootloader that makes the system incompatible with older versions. In my experience by itself the TWRP doesn't mess with the boot unless you request it.

That's the reason when you make a full backup you include boot and system, to avoid incompatible things.

What are your thoughts?
[Moto Z Guides, News, & Discussion] enetec:
This (probably true anyway...), would explain only a minimal part of the above issues... :rolleyes:

Even I, in my "previous experiences", would have said for sure that "twrp doesn't mess with boot" too, BUT after what happened on C4 to me (AND confirmed on 4pda by another user too!), this is not true anymore too.

After a single TWRP flash C4 goes to bootloop on normal boot and only flashing SuperSU is able to fix it (how is still a mistery!). So recovery and boot are connected and not indipendent.

More, bootloop created by Magisk (that by what developer says, it touches only boot.img), affected TWRP too and remains even after reflashing it! Only a flash of boot.img is able to fix it!

So, again, recovery and boot are (both ways...) connected and not indipendent.

At least on that device/recovery combination... :rolleyes:

On Moto Z I don't know, but some bricks occurred on Nougat are a bit suspect in that way too...
[Moto Z Guides, News, & Discussion] enetec:
Just found that on C4 SuperSU v.2.78 installs in systemless (on boot.img) mode...

So, what flashing TWRP apparently breaks, SuperSU is then able to fix... :eek:

Definitely they are connected on (at least...) that device!

Strange is that SuperSU fixes it and instead Magisk breaks it totally (neither TWRP is still able to boot after flashing it!!) :eek:

Quite the opposite than on Moto Z where Magisk seems to have "good influence" even on SuperSU (in system mode!) installation too :confused:
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] Aeskulapio:
I received my Mi Mix (6Gb/256Gb) yesterday morning.

I had an update to CN Stable 8.0.11.0 waiting for me shortly after getting wifi setup and inserting my Project Fi Sim into the holder. After the update and a reboot I installed Google Play services directly from the Mi store and after a reboot installed and updated all my critical Gapps and services. I applied the battery and memory management de-optimizations recommended here in various threads and followed the five step process outlined in the Forbes article to make sure I'm getting notifications.

I then installed critical email, note taking, Todo and social media apps and changed out default apps to one's that I prefer (Google Play Music, Snap Camera, etc).

LTE Discovery shows I'm on Band 4, Speedtest (ping of 29 ms) 18.8 Mbps Download and 8.45 Mbps upload speeds.

Some thoughts:

I can't stress enough how different and futuristic this device feels and how much fun it is to use even for those of us who flip phones frequently. It's density and construction materials give it a very high quality feeling. I don't think I've felt such visceral excitement in how a smartphone feels in the hand since the first iPhone or Nexus phone. It definitely feels better in the hand than the SG7 Edge, Pixel and the iP7+

The screen is gorgeous! I can't stress this enough, It's luminance and color reproduction make you think it's Amoled.

This is the slipperiest device I've ever held. A case is mandatory. But it's really pleasant to hold with the included case.

The camera app is crap. Snap Camera gives you better results, but not having OIS here can lead to blurry photos even in good light.

The inline audio jack gives high quality sound reproduction for a smartphone. It's no competitor for an Astell & Kern player, but I had very nice soundstage, instrument separation and musicality with my Shure SE843's.

Bluetooth connectivity is excellent. 20-30 feet with a pair of Bragi Dash and over 40 feet with Bose QC35s before I had drop off or choppiness.

Excellent Wifi strength and connectivity. I'm guessing that the ceramic case is the hero here.

The Snapdragon 821 is very fast and capable, with the 6Gb of RAM 30+ apps and Chrome with 20 tabs without any lag.

Over the next couple of days I'll follow the process outlined but others to unlock, install CN Dev, install TWRP, and may flash EU Stable. It's still not clear to me which ROM is providing the best experience in the US so far from reading through the various threads here. any guidance or thoughts from those of you who have gone through the process is appreciated.

Happy to answer any questions anyone might have, but a lot of the water front has been covered by other members

Didn't realize you could run Verizon on the mi. How was the data on it?
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] skinnytoo2:
All I did was put in the SIM and did a reboot on the device. It doesn't get 4g but it's solid 3g and 1x which is great for voice and SMS. I use Tmobs for data, I get 4g around 30-40 down and 12-17 up. This is the best of both worlds. I have unlimited data with Tmobs for $20 on my buddy's account. Plus, I'm not sold on VoLTE with VZW anyhow. Really the only good feature is being able to use data and voice together. With the Mix and dual SIMs I have that anyways.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] Aeskulapio:
Great report thank you!

I'm guessing you had the VZW Sim in the first slot and the TMob Sim in the second? When I tried both Sims I was relegated to H+ (decrease of 25 Mbps D/12Mbps U) and no ability to dial out on VZW in NYC.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] skinnytoo2:
