what about a full root? somebody found a solution?
[Mate 8 General] zappomax:
I'm on NXT-L29C432b560 now and no way to get root (full or partial). After installed the two Nougat files (update.zip and update_data_full_hw_eu.zip) I tried to flash various SuperSU zip (2.79-SR3, 2.79_sr2, r275) but every time my Mate instantly reboot and no root...

Can't stay without root on a device :(.

No solution??
[Mate 8 General] paulcl:
Did you follow rhis guide? https://xdaforums.com/mate-8/general/how-to-install-nxt-l29c432b560-official-t3540042

I think you have to flash all 3 zips in the right order without boot between. In TWRP you can install zip and enter a second zip and a third zip before swipe to go.

6- Root & Firmware Installation

6.1- Install supersu_v2.79_sr2.zip (Don't reboot after install)

6.2- update_full_hw_eu.zip (Don't reboot after install)

ignore unmounting \cache, cust, system, userdata error

6.3- update.zip (Reboot when success)

ignore E:unknown command
[Mate 8 General] apollo_81:
It works for Nxt-L29C432B560?
[Mate 8 General] icy20:
I think he is right. Mine didn't work as well with every method I tried. I think it has to do with TWRP.

Good Day!!

I saw this thread due to some other purpose but i have solution for partial root issue...

I own a P9 Lite but as all huawei devices are same so was visiting here...

For those who has partial root... Install material terminal from play store nd give commands...

Su enter then type

mount -o rw,remount /system nd enter

Keep terminal minimized(not closed) and check if you can write to system partition by install adaway or busybox....

Press thanks if works......

In case... It dont work.... You guyz need to patch the kernel.... I did it for P9 lite yesterday nd now its working fine with latest stable Nougat :)
[Mate 8 General] dexz:
Yes. It can be root using that command but when you reboot your phone. You need to run the command again to get rw in system partition.

I can have fully rooted without running the command. :)

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Blues fan:
Someone on AC has the us unlocked version that you can buy from Amazon and BH and is using tmobile on it. They said wifi calling is hidden on it but if you go searching using an app like quick shortcut app you can find wifi calling and enable it that way.

If anyone has the unlocked model have you tried this? If this is the case I might just order the unlocked one.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Blues fan:
So has anyone tried this? thinking about ordering it this weekend so would like to know.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] monsieurtalbot:
It IS there. in Quick Shortcut maker.

I'm on AT&T and it appears enabled by default.

Not sure if it's actually doing anything - but it's there.

On the LG website for the unlocked version it list Wi-Fi calling as a feature.

I downloaded the app quick shortcut maker and used it and search Wi-Fi calling and you will find it that way, then make a shortcut icon to it.

H910 here.

I have the option in settings however when clicking on "Get Started" I get a dialogue saying I must confirm my address. Eventually this times out and gives a "network unavailable" error. Probably because its trying to contact an AT&T server but I have T-Mobile.

Notice the AT&T part...

EDIT: My phone is running NRD90M rom, rooted and sim unlocked. Everything else works perfectly fine.

Wi-Fi calling on AT&T working

I was searching for this using the QuickShortcut app everyone was talking about and thought it didn't exist on my phone. For anyone who was searching for "WiFi Calling" and not "Wi-Fi Calling", you do need the hyphen and then I was able to change the setting. I'm hoping this saves somebody else some frustration.

hold on why is it confirmed it doesn't work? mines still on and i get HD voice often at home, and my lte usually sucks.. so im on wifi.

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] rick09:
My experience with this is that you can find the setting and switch it on but that doesn't mean it's going to work. I used this method on my US996 model and was never able to make a call using WiFi.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] SMARTPHONEPC:
So were you or others here able to confirm your US996 Wi-Fi calling working on T-Mobile given how helpful a function it can be to have in spotty coverage areas (e.g. could test by turning on Airplane mode then only turning on Wi-Fi to see how calling to & from your US996 functions)?

Apparently in the QuickShortcut app user must search for "Wi-Fi Calling" (not without the hyphen) to change the setting.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] emdroidle:
On my H990DS it turned out there was a setting to enable/disable 802.11 calling. In the dialer dial "*#546368#*<model_numer>#". From there I've spotted two menus of interest:

"SVC Menu" => "VoWiFi"; appears to be a simple on/off for VoWiFi.

"Field Test" => "GPRI VoLTE/VoWiFi" => "UX"; seems it is possible to tell the phone to have VoLTE and VoWiFi settings show up somewhere.

The US996 is quite likely to have a different menu layout, but the hidden menu can tell you quite a few interesting things about the phone...
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Han27net:
I tried this and i can toggle eifi calling in and off .

[Samsung Gear S3] Sirdragonx:
Ok, before I start, I have to say that my S3 Frontier is the best Smart Watch I have ever owned. I have had an apple watch. I own an LG Urbane, Gear S2 and now the S3 Frontier LTE version.

Now I have to say that this is an awesome watch but I have been having several issues that are bugging me but I am sure they can be fixed with software updates so I'm hanging in there but here are my issues and they are getting annoying:

Watch constantly locks, thinking I took the watch off my wrist. If I tighten it real tight it won't. The heart beat sensor constantly tells me to reposition the watch on my wrist or clean the sensor. I have to move it or tighten it several times before I can get a reading. The altimeter is always all over the place. I can recalibrate it in the same spot every time and get everything from - 100 feet to 200 feet. Mind you I live at sea level. The barometer stays at 30 and never moves even though I am sure the barometric pressure is changing. The GPS doesn't lock very quickly so using it as a standalone GPS isn't really feasible yet. Locks great with phone hooked up. Samsung Pay does not integrate with the phone version. Works great but when I pay with my watch, I don't get rewards points. Also, I kept my S2 for a more sporty look and when I was going somewhere that I didn't want to mess up my frontier. I connected to my S2 the other day and when I connected back to my s3, Samsung Pay had to be set up all over again. That is to inconvenient for those of us who would like to switch between watches. The gear app does a good job at being able to switch seamlessly but messes up Samsung Pay every time you switch. I only use it to impress people or don't have my phone with me but honestly Samsung Pay on the watch has been more of a hassle than it's worth for me. Now if Samsung were to integrate the promotions and the gear app wouldn't keep deleting my cards every time I switched watches, Samsung Pay would be dope.

Now you may say that I have defective sensors but upon trolling the net, I see others are having some of the same issues. I am sure that with some updates it will improve. I see that there has already been one update that improves the GPS but unfortunately I have to wait for Tmobile to push it out since I have the Lte version and have noticed that with my S2, you have to wait for updates if you have the LTE versions.

Now please don't get me wrong. I loved my S2 and am loving my s3 even more but still needs some improvement.

I still think it's the best on the market! Some say there is a lack of apps but there is an app for all my needs and between all the watch face apps and gear designer, I have even designed my own faces. I think hands down it even beats android wear in the watch face designing department. I also think this is definitely an apple watch killer. Only wish they would have made it a little more water resistant so I could swim with it but it's all good.

This watch has a lot of potential and I hope Samsung starts working on updates to fix its shortcomings but for now it's the best smart watch in my opinion.
[Samsung Gear S3] reglaspv:
Just curious (because you seem to use the watch all the time), how's the quality of the bezel? It became in time slightly loose and it's clicky when you tap on it?
[Samsung Gear S3] blackspp:
I recognize your story but the love prevails for now, probably until a better S4 or Huawei Watch comes out.

Don't use Samsung pay but I don't recognize your GPS comment. Maybe I live under a satellite cause mine locks in about 3 to 5 seconds.

Btw coming from the doomed Pebble, I had a time steel and backed (%|#!) a time 2, I'm glad to find the S3 does the same plus more and looks like a proper watch. So I'll just have to live with it's quirks.

Edit: Been thinking about this. If Garmin would release a smaller Fenix 4 I'll probably get that, I like always on reflective displays better than oled.
[Samsung Gear S3] Sirdragonx:
I haven't had any problems and actually I like the smoothness and it hasn't gotten loose on me. I have heard complaints about the behalf but I think it's perfect.
[Samsung Gear S3] Sirdragonx:
Do you have the Bluetooth or LTE version? It is my understanding that there was an update that improved the GPS lock on the Bluetooth version. I'm still waiting for the update.

I am sure most if not all these quirks will be fixed with updates. Samsung did a good job fixing several issues with the S2 so I am confident they will do good with the S3. I just hate having to wait a few extra months because I have the LTE version but at the same time I use the standalone features with call forwarding and tmobile digits looks promising.

Trust me, I'm still more on the love side.
[Samsung Gear S3] blackspp:
Bluetooth...

So, your watch is nothing like this: https://youtu.be/QoqKgXq-KRA?t=12m15s

I tried tapping mine and mine is fine. Not like the video. Not loose at all.
[Samsung Gear S3] Sirdragonx:
I think the update included the GPS fix.
[Samsung Gear S3] blackspp:
Mine taps too just like several others I checked. Very annoying but probably ok. I guess...
[Samsung Gear S3] richierich118:
I switch between the gear s and gear s3 and have no problems with having to restart samsung pay. And you do get the points using the watch also.
[Samsung Gear S3] reglaspv:
I just don't know and I'm trying to make up my mind if I should return it or not.

The watch is fine otherwise but I'm thinking that MAYBE is just a bad luck and if I change it, everything it will be fine (like the one of OP).

I asked in a Samsung service about this problem and the technician said that at this point he has no clue if this is expected or not but that all the Gear S2 that he saw, had this little clicky thing.

Then I asked if the bezel is changed without disassembling the watch and he said that the bezel is attached to the watch face and it is changed as an entire unit, basically removing the bottom and the electronics and inserted into the new one.

Mine (in just 4 days after unpacking) is more than clicky when I tap it, the bezel is also slightly loose and there is enough lateral and vertical movement (when I press one side, the other is just slightly moving up).

I can't imagine that in time, it will be better but I can imagine all the dust and hair that it will be stuck under the bezel.

My watch:

[Samsung Gear S3] afblangley:
If you have any doubt, return it. If only for peace of mind. You can always buy it again.

Mine is less loose but It's loose a bit nevertheless...

I'm going back to the shop tomorrow but I doubt i can swap it...

For those of us like myself who had the Note 7, and now the S7 Edge or who have the V20 all these feature packed phones, would going to a Pixel XL be boring to us? I know the Pixel doesn't have the gimmicks like the Note, but do you consider the butter smooth software, and great camera a trade off?

To be honest I love how buttery smooth the pixel xl is compared to my nexus 6p. I never use any of the fancy features that other phones have I mainly focus on performance.

Yeah, the Pixel is VERY boring. Google basically went with iPhone ideology on this one. The only redeeming quality of the Pixel is Project FI, which is really economical for a low data user such as myself.

I'm not mad at all, I knew exactly what I was getting. Wife had the note 7 bomb and while it's a nice phone it still can't do what the unlocked pixel can. I've been building Roms for the nexus since Nexus s and all the gimmicky gadgets and bloat don't add up to the freedom this phone brings you.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] aholeinthewor1d:
I'm coming from a Galaxy S5 and I couldn't agree more! Never thought I'd say it but newer touch whiz does offer some very nice features that you don't realize until you don't have them. Kinda crazy to go from that to such a new expensive phone and not be that impressed at all. I actually think it's better to have a phone running a skinned version of Android as long as the bootloader can be unlocked. When it comes to development there are far more options then. Take the S5 for example. Most of its life we only had root. Even with just root the devs were able to do some amazing things with touch whiz. Once the bootloader got unlocked is when it got fun. We had so many options. You could install a modified TouchWiz ROM.. you could run a port from another phone.. or you could run AOSP.

I know everyone says development will pick up for this phone but you would think there would be some more action already. Even when things so start to pick up how far will it really go? We are basically limited to going back and forth between different AOSP roms which are mostly all exactly the same with minor differences throughout.

I'm on Verizon so I know my options are limited but I got this phone for only $140 and if there was another newish phone with lots of development going on I would sell it and get that.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] clockcycle:
Let me put it this way.

All the "features" "gimmicks" them others gotta put in their phones because otherwise they'd be slow craptastic shooters.

I miss nothing those other phones have, none of the gimmicks. I enjoy and use my pixel xl way more than my previous phones. Thats just imho, YMMV

As for something special for $900, it's the latest greatest Google hype train, if you ain't got one or you're still waiting on your delivery, you just ain't in... you get to say you had Google's first phone, you're a pioneer, living on the edge, avant-garde, first with daydream vr, first to use assistant, even though she doesn't do much now.

The xl is good but three things I'm not impressed with. It's too big compared to the g4 with the same screen. It's too slippery in the hand. If the bottom bezel was smaller at least you could teach around the screen without losing the phone. The camera is not as good as the g4, though it is pretty good.

Things I love. Developer phone! (I have the Google one) fast updates.
