I want to couple my rhinoshield with either of these two:

1. Gadgetshieldz screen protector with front and back covered

2. Gadgetshieldz screen protector on front and a dbrands on back.

http://www.gadgetshieldz.com/oneplus-3-screen-protectors-covers-cases.html in case gadgetshieldz is a new name to you

Also I haven't still bought the rhinoshield bumper but my planning to do so and I want to fully cover my phone so has to prevent it from further debts or scratches

I need to make an Android device that can basically only use the screen and the camera. Everything else I want permanently disabled.

Is there any way to do that, I don't want the radios to turn on, not even for a second.

I have been looking at boot scripts, tasker etc, but not sure if they catch it early enough. If I could I would physically disable everything., but that isn't that practical. Taking out the antennas will still give reception to the very strongest networks for example..

Thanks!!!
[XDA Assist] Vatsal:
Hello,

That isn't possible. You can put the phone on flight mode but some of functions dont get disabled in flight mode as well.

To my knowledge Custom roms cannot sim unlock your phone. Your phone must be sim unlocked while on stock firmware and only then you'll be able to use any sim from any carrier while on any custom rom.

The bootloop is caused by twrp and supersu. Twrp 2.9.0.1 and supersu 2.65 should get it running.

Please don't recommend others to use that twrp version. There's a reason because of which Captain_Throwback removed it. The recommended version for firmware 3.x and above is currently the unofficial twrp 3.0.3-0. A download link can be found in the twrp thread in the original android development section.

can we root our phones with this method?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] equitube:
I did do something very similar, or kind of similar recently. After installing Lineage 14.1 in order to get root you have to flash a superSu zip. However this was on an S5 so I'm not sure if it would work on this model. I wish I wouldn't have lost my J, I may be able to help more. However for less than these phones cost, you can have an S5 or S6 (occasionally I even run into S7s for under 100. Even a 2 or 3 year old flagship is far above these vl series. (and they're easy to root plus have tons of custom ROMs, mods etc.)
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] MrBaltazar:
Hello all,

Just picked up my Pixel (in blue) and I'm coming from the S7 Edge.. Anyways, one of my closest buddies just proposed to his girlfriend yesterday.. when I was trying to capture a close image of her ring, the camera on the Pixel wouldn't focus. I had to pull the camera away from the ring about 10" before I could get it in focus, which ends up not being very detailed since it's so far away. My S7 edge was able to focus on close subjects up to about 3" or so and give nice bokkeh behind the subject. Anyone else having this issue with their pixel?
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] jdubya42:
The closest I can get my phone to focus is about 4-5". Cameras aren't really good at doing that either way. I would recommend you back up to 10" or so and just use the zoom. I wouldn't call this an issue. Try and get your phone to focus on something else and really see if it won't do it (I doubt it). It was probably just the lighting or the situation. I easily got my phone to focus on my laptop close, but not hand. Just depends
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] MrBaltazar:
Yeah I tried in brighter light today and the issue is still apparent. I'm guessing the camera just can't focus at a very close range like the Samsung could. Something to get used to I suppose
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] slajeune:
You could try OpenCamera. It has a macro mode.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] JAYNO20:
It focuses the same if not better than my s7 did... Real close up shots with the s7 struggled to focus correctly as well.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] Jonathan-H:
I have the S7 flat and the Pixel, well the HTC 10 has the same issue as the Pixel, but yes, the S7 focuses brilliantly on close up objects but the pixel and the HTC 10 cannot get anywhere near as close. About 5" closer on S7.

On a side note, Jewellery is very difficult indeed to photo with all three phones, but Pixel and HTC 10, forget about it.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] MrBaltazar:
Yeah I was thinking the fact that it was jewelry might have been the issue but I tested in great lighting on standard objects and had the same issue as her ring. S7 has much better focus
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] Jaws4God:
I just found this out today... so wonder if anyone has any hints or tricks... ? I thought it was a skin that was on the glass when I first got the phone.. but after removing it i still had issues focusing on close objects..
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] Biges:
I picked Google Pixel at the local store and BAM, has crappy minimum focusing distance, totally cannot compare with OnePlus 5 (or even OnePlus 2). I think the lens is fixed focus, is physically unable to focus closer. Just bad design, shame on you, Google!
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] tauio111:
It can focus closer (not as close as some phones), but it appears slightly bugged out.

The macro level achieved while it autofocuses during the launching of the camera application is slightly better sometimes than it is when you manually focus.
[Sony Xperia XA ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] rrvuhpg:
Hi,

I will release here my updated "boot.img" files for the Xperia XA Dual Sim.

You must have an unlocked bootloader to flash with Fastboot.

You don't need to be on the same firmware as the boot image that you want to flash.

You have to flash SuperSu again from TWRP just after flashed new boot to avoid bootloop. Not needed on 33.2.B.4.70 and upper.

All boot images have "ro.secure=0" and "ro.debuggable=1" in default.prop file

and "forcencrypt" of internal memory switched to "encryptable" in fstab.mt6755 file, on 33.2.B.4.70 and upper "dm-verity" is disabled by default.

They will probably not work on upper firmwares than the one they are built.

I am about to buy a NEXUS 6P. I heard the display is made by samsung and indeed its a AMOLED display. I come from a S5 with very bad flickering problems especially in cold environment, now being hard even to turn on the screen.

So i just want to ask if any of you, have any flickering problems with NEXUS 6P, at low brigthness, max britghtness, when turning the display on etc?

Do any of you have these or other problems and issues with NEXUS 6P display like S5-S6-S7 ?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DEVILOPS 007:
Hi, I have had a nexus 6p for around half a year and i have experienced no problems at all and buying this phone was one of my best decisions ever as it is so powerful and great even against 2016 flagships and is one of the most if not the most active when it comes to awesome mods and hacks like Ross and charge speed improvement mods etc. I 100% recommend you get a nexus 6p as it is an amazing phone and considered the best to some people and is very affordable. I hope this helps your decision and if you have any questions let me know as I am very experienced with this device. Also Merry Christmas, boxing day and new year.?

If you are experience, hope you can help me with this, I want to buy either a 6P or a 6S( non-PLUS), and i want a device that holds on for at least 3 years, and have a good battery. So which one should i go with? I am an android fan but if the 6s has a better battery and can resists over more years i will switch to iOS? So which one is the way to go? (considering the news about fast degradation batterys on 6P)
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DEVILOPS 007:
Hi, I think the nexus 6p is very good for battery life and the battery life is more likely to last longer than the 6. Depending on what mods like roms and kernels you use you could actually get 6-8 hours screen on time. My battery health is at 100% and I use my device quite heavily. If battery life is important to you then rooting your device and modding it is important.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RootNightmareX:
So if i want battery should i go with 6p or 6s? i saw both have random shutdowns even at 50%. Can you help me decide?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DEVILOPS 007:
For battery it doesn't really matter. However if you decide to use a custom rom and kernel then the N nexus 6p then the battery is much better. I recommend getting the nexus 6p and I havent noticed any shutdown problems myself but have experienced bootlooped from ios updates in the past and plus jailbreak is nowhere near as good as root if you are into that. For power, customisability and battery go with the nexus 6p. Hope this helps:)

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RootNightmareX:
And if i want a phone that holds on for more years which one should i go with 6P or 6s?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DEVILOPS 007:
Definitely nexus 6p. Whether this is true or not ios devices have been rumoured to be designed to deliberately detiriate over time so new ones are bought. Most android phones can manage something like 5 years before they get bad. Ios devices last a year if you are lucky at their full potential.

Android devices are undoubtedly built more powerful and better at staying good over years. Hopefully this helps, if you have any questions even about roms and rooting or anything please let me know.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RootNightmareX:
This is the thing, i had 3 android devices and neither one has resisted more than 1,5years, and i have taken good care of them. I only have an iOS device an iPad which has nearly 4 years and still going smooth.

I just looked at Apple support that support his devices for more than 4 years. Still you recommand me to go for a Nexus 6p despite all these things i told you?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DEVILOPS 007:
Yes I do still recommend it. Either you were unlucky or the phones were just not that great in that category. The nexus 6p was made by Huawei and Google so you can tell that it will be a good phone. Trust me when I say this. You will not regret choosing the nexus 6p and I promise you if you are careful with it it will last years. Hopefully this helps. Custom roms can help extend your phones life.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RootNightmareX:
So then i should pass the iphone, it only remains me to choose between S7 and 6P. I had big problems with the flickering on S5 and i heard the problems persists for S6 and S7 too. Any advice on this?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DEVILOPS 007:
I have heard these problems too and I recommend the nexus for many reasons such as better speakers, home button fingerprint scanner, camera and much more.
