[Honor 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ayush rao:
Aren't u rooted? Then just install titanium backup and uninstall the system apps.
[Honor 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] YaddaSwamy:
Kind of new to the rooting/tweaking scene, so I wasn't aware I had other options. I went through most of the threads in the Honor 8 forum and there weren't a lot of mentions of how to uninstall the system apps. That's what led me to ask the question in the first place.

Titanium Backup looks cool. What would the benefit be between using Titanium Backup vs. Magisk?
[Honor 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ayush rao:
See titanium backup and Magisk r 2 completely different things.

So using Magisk u can use a module which can help u but if u want to edit it it gets complex. Magisk is like SuperSU on steroids. So it's main function is to provide root without modifying system so that Safetynet is bypassed. It also provides system-less modules to get more functionality.

Titanium backup is an app which can perform various functions with root access. Like backing up apps and their data or uninstalling system ones or moving apps to the SD card etc.

But if all u want is to uninstall system apps and if u already have SuperSU then just install this app: https://goo.gl/hK4n5H

It will simply uninstall the applications u select. Also once u uninstall the apps reboot ur phone.
[Honor 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] YaddaSwamy:
Awesome. Thanks for the info! This is the first time I've looked at rooting/tweaking my phone, so I am learning a lot in a short time. :good:

Anyways, my intent is to have as close to a stock ROM as possible and until the custom ROMs stabilize, I thought I could get rid of the stock apps (such as Clock, Contacts, Dialer, etc.) and replace them with the Google version from the Play Store. Secondly, I also wanted to get rid of the unnecessary Google stuff and flash OpenGApps just to have the bare minimum.

For the first, [MENTION=3694505]Telperion[/MENTION] gave a Magisk module that he had written for himself to do exactly that but based on what you described, it sounds like I could just install Titanium Backup and uninstall those apps myself. That might be easier to do.

For the second part, there was a script [MENTION=3507070]ganeshbiyer[/MENTION] wrote to uninstall all the Google apps (https://xdaforums.com/honor-8/themes/bloatware-apps-list-t3521225/post71093292#post71093292) but I couldn't get it to work. But if I understand you correctly, I should be able to do that with Titanium Backup as well.
[Honor 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ayush rao:
Yup all can be done with Titanium​ Backup.
[Honor 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Telperion:
TB fully removes/replaces the apps -- this might be desirable, but might not be. It's hard to go back and forth between the two once you uninstall.

Magisk mounts over top of the old ones so you get all the benefit without any actual changes to /system/ -- this is more flexible and more desirable for some users.

Personally, I think Magisk and other systemless mods are the future of custom tweaks so I'd suggest that if you think you'll be a tinkerer, learn Magisk modules and do it that way. Ultimately though it's preference.
[Honor 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] YaddaSwamy:
Hey [MENTION=3694505]Telperion[/MENTION],

I ran this module and it seemed to work OK for the most part. The Dialer, Messages, Calendar and Contacts all updated properly. But QuickPic doesn't seem to work though. I see that it's installed but when I try to open the app, it just closes and takes me back to the home screen. Any ideas on what might have happened?
[Honor 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Telperion:
Strange, that happened to me in the first version of my zip, I set it as a merge-mod and for some reason the existing libraries in the /Gallery2/ folder cause QuickPic to crash. When I set it to 'overwrite' /system/priv-app/Gallery2 which made the libraries disappear, then QuickPic launched normally.

Do you have QuickPic currently installed from the Play Store? If so, uninstall first.

Update: Looked over the zip, it looks good. Try downloading and flashing the mod again, perhaps from Recovery this time (if you added from UI the first go-round). Let me know how that goes.
[Honor 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] YaddaSwamy:
No, I don't have QuickPic installed from the store. I ran the update on the stock device, before I even set up by Google account on it. And I did flash it from TWRP recovery, so I don't believe that is the issue either. But I'll try again and let you know if it works.
[YotaPhone] djdemond:
Okay, so if I use the yotaphone 2 charger, I get rapid charging (green charging icon) and high current 1.5A+. Sometimes this heats the phone up fairly hot. I am measuring this using the app Ampere.

If using any other charger its very variable, I get something between 100mA and 800mA charging, even if the charger supports higher charging rates. Now I know the yotaphone 2 communicates via the usb connector with the genuine charger, as I was using magnetic usb cables which can connect either way around. One way around the data pins are connected and the fast charge mode works, the other way around the data is not connected and charging is limited to the lower current. Caution with these as the type I was using ebay approx £4, cannot carry the 1.5A charge and the magnetic charger plug itself heats up.

Question: What charger do you use? What current is it capable of delivering and does your yotaphone 2 use this current. How long does a charge take on various chargers?
[YotaPhone] stanley321:
I can't recall correctly, isn't the stock yota charger 1.5A? So with 1.5A the phone itself consume 0.7-1.4A, what you get is correct with 0.1-0.8A. I use the Asus Nexus 7 2.1A charger, it charge at 0.4-1.2A. With screen off and sleep mode it will charge faster!
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] trevsword:
Hi, Sorry if this is the wrong place but I am hoping for some technical help with my new head unit.

The device didnt come with an SD card for GPS even though i can work this through the wifi connection. I would like to use an SD card i already have but really struggling to understand the process of using my SD card and how to download the apps?

Is there an idiots guide as to if there is anything special regarding formatting the SD card? and then how to download TomTom for instance to the head unit?

Im technically ok with trying different pc based commands etc but Im a novice at using an Android head unit and where to start - User guide is not helping

thansk in advance Trev
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oddcast:
Hey guys i just want to ask if there's a proper way of rooting the Lenovo A7000 Plus through SP flash tool with TWRP?

I mean, i've hunted down the Net for proper tutorials but i cant seem to find one. I tried to flash TWRP 2.8.7.0 with SP Flash tool 5.1708 AND 5.1516 to no luck. I believe the Plus version has different firmware and the regular A7000's rooting way cannot work. So is there any way? And if so, how?

Huge thanks.

As was mentioned to me, the firmware pack isn't included in lineage ROMs for mi5 anymore so have to be updated separately; https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=71962673&postcount=24

I was in the same situation with the buttons being useless under lineage (lgd also) but since firmware pack 7.4.11 ( https://xdaforums.com/mi-5/development/tool-flashable-firmware-twrp-easy-t3474898 ) they've been working really well, almost perfect.

If they don't work well for you, I previously found a workaround in installing "All in one Gestures" https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...os.aiogestures

I've got it configured such that swipes in the bottom left and bottom right corners of the screen match the capacitive button actions.

I wasn't happy with Nougat and decided to go back to Marshmallow, now I am on MM and everytime I turn on wifi the Nougat update starts downloading. Restarting phone didn't help.

There is no option either to stop it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] nktwister:
Isn't there an option in Developer settings?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] pra300:
No, not there either. Is there any way without rooting the device?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] kevin71246:
Anyone figure this out?! Can't get notification to go away. Ugh. Please help!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] jpalicki:
The only way I have been able to disable the update is to download the "BK Disabler App" along with "BK Plugin". It will allow you to disable the update as well as take away the notification at the top. The only thing that will show is there will be a Software update dialog box at the top of your settings menu when you go into settings. Otherwise you will never be notified of it again and wont have to worry about it downloading or updating when you set your phone down.

You will need to go to the top right corner of the app and search for "update" and check these 3 items:

I think its a Fake and why Not snapdragon 835?
[LeEco Le Max 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] angryharambe:
because it will make the phone way too expensive for what it is.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] valy_cta:
6.3"?!

Way too big...
[LeEco Le Max 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] castuis:
Because almost no manufacturers have access to the 835 because Samsung locked up almost the entire first run of them in an agreement with Qualcom. So unless you want to release a phone at end of Fall or are willing to release a small batch now then tell everyone else to wait for 6 months the 820 and 821 are your only options.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] RandyT2:
IMHO, LeEco should stick with what seems to be a good hardware base, and focus on tuning the bugs out of it and providing a better value than the more mainstream players. This focus on churning out new models with half-baked code, and very little support for developers, means accelerated obsolescence and unhappy consumers.

If they offer different models based on screen size and display technologies, with a common 100% stable hardware platform and proper developer support, at a great price (let's face it...price is why most of us bought in), then they would own the market.

If battery life is the most important thing for you, this phone will make you happy. I just wonder if the next version isn't too far off.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] RockinAmigo14:
depending on what you're using it for, you might not notice too much of a downgrade from a processor point of view. i don't do a ton of gaming, but the MZP feels every bit as responsive as my Nexus 5x, which ran the technically-better Snapdragon 808. performance is great, responsiveness is great, battery life is fantastic. i think you'll be happy with it.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] mobrules777:
I have both Z Force and Z Play. Side by side I don't notice much difference in performance.

Maybe the Force opens an app a few milliseconds faster. Yes screen density is better on Force, so videos/photos will be nicer. Camera on Z Force takes amazing photos. Took some at Grand Canyon and was happy. But battery life is my thing and Z Play wins that. I can't find a process that use day to day that is so much slower on Z Play.

I also have a G4 Plus and out of the 3 phones my favorite is the Z Play. Battery life is amazing. Of course I bought a battery mod right away but I've only used it for fun. Never actually had a need for it on either Z phone.

All in all if I had to buy one today I would repurchase Z Play without regret.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] rondias18:
I do zero gaming except for maybe occasional Arcade games which I know will run smoothly. All my usage is multimedia, streaming and local which is why battery is imp. Especially cause I spend upto 3-4 hrs traveling daily.

I might go for it cause of the discount I'm getting on exchange for my current phone.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] xxBrun0xx:
Can't tell any difference in performance between my z play and my OnePlus 3. The camera isn't amazing (it's fine, just not as good as the OP3 or galaxy S7/8) and it's very hard to use in one hand, but I absolutely adore my Z play and haven't taken my OP3 out of the drawer since purchasing the Z Play. I've owned over 40 different phones over the years and this is by far the best I've ever had.

Great software, great performance, great screen, good speaker, good build quality, unlimited battery life, mod compatible. For those of us who don't take selfies or use Instagram, this is the holy Grail of smartphones.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] RockinAmigo14:
you'll probably be plenty happy with it then. the camera isn't the greatest, but the sound it produces is great, IMO the screen is fantastic, and the battery life is the best. i bought mine used for $290 and i really enjoy it. i wish it was smaller and had a better camera, but i can deal with both of those small annoyances compared to everything else it does so well.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] rondias18:

[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] rondias18:
Even I'll hold off the root and ROM business cause it's already running Nougat and also don't want to void the warranty for atleast till the next iteration of android comes out.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] xxBrun0xx:
While this technically does void the warranty, it only voids the part of the warranty that covers software (which is basically nothing, since software is 100% identical from phone to phone, software does not have "tolerances" like hardware does). If you have a hardware issue that clearly has nothing to do with software, Motorola will honor legitimate warranty claims. That being said, if you make a point of the fact that you unlocked your bootloader, the techs on the phone may assume your warranty is void. But I've returned several devices with unlocked bootloaders but legitimate hardware defects to Motorola and have never once had an issue. People like to complain, but Motorola customer service is some of the best in the industry.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] tag68:
Had a bad experience with Moto X Play. Hardware failure. USB port broken. SD card not reliably. Dealer (Conrad) sent in to Lenovo for warranty. Lenovo obviously only looked at the IMEI and sent back, told no warranty because if unlocked device. Conrad told in Europe it needs to be proven that the failure occurred in the first half year to get repair by dealer.

Now the device is being used without repair (most of the time it is usable). Am not sure if I should try anything further.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] rondias18:
If you have a hardware issue that clearly has nothing to do with software, Motorola will honor legitimate warranty - would depend on market and type of service personnel. I've heard great ad bad things about their service centers but its usually almost all because of the service employees.

My phone seem to not recognize one of my older SIM cards. The proper way would be contacting the operator to get a copy, but I feel like experimenting a bit. I am aware using a clone simultaneously with the original card may be considered a fraud, but what if I use only the cloned card and never plug in the original one? Also, when I register in the network, can operator tell the cloned card from original one?
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Chinesur:
Hello,

When I make a call, in 50% of the time, the person I call cannot hear me. It is very frustrating because... the Axon 7 is a phone.

I am A2017G 100% stock on official 7.1.1 and I made a factory reset after I installed 7.1.1.

I remember some messages about this problem in another thread but I think a specific threat has to be made because the problem was NOT SOLVED in 7.1.1.

How do you people live with this? Did anyone find a solution?

[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] MrMD69:
A2017G and I have this trouble too. My temporary solution is to turn of and of loudspeaker - as for now after that microphone works. I dunno why that issue occured in my phone after upgrading to 7.1.1. I do not have that trouble in 7.0.0 (I'm stock, locked bootloader).
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] crazedgod:
While this may sound stupid and condescending, it's not meant to be. I used to face the same issue when I used the phone. Initially thought that it was a problem with microphone, but it was also a bit weird cos it only happened when the phone was in my right hand. That's when i realized that the microphone is placed at the bottom right corner. When I held the phone in my right hand my little finger would cover the microphone and the person at the other end couldn't hear me. Changed my grip and haven't had any problems anymore.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] MrMD69:
Need to check that - may we just keep covering mic with finger lol :D
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Han85PL:
Definitely not a finger! I am on standard 7.1.1 software and people do not hear me. People from Reddit.com have suggested installing Google Dialer and contacts but that unfortunately did not help. Any suggestions for now? Do we have to wait a month for updates?
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] joaste:
This issue just happened to me for the first time. 3 attempts to call failed. The person could not hear me. A reboot fixed it.

Hope a solution is found.

I'm on stock, unlocked and not rooted, 7.1.1.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Chinesur:
I confirm Little Finger has nothing to do with my problem. It is just a phone that can not make a decent call. Google Dialer did not help neither.

Indeed, a "fix" is to quickly activate loudspeaker then come back to normal... But the person you call already had time to say "Allo? Allo ?" à few times and be upset about it... Not professional AT ALL... I remember I bought... a phone.

Hey everyone, hope all is well.

I found a fix for my axon. If you don't want to read my trial and errors and just want the fix, scroll to the bottom. Sounds like you guys have an issue where turning speaker on and off fixes it, so this might not be the fix for your issue, but, I thought it was worth a try since it's basically free.

I bought an axon 7 off eBay. From day 1 people were saying they couldn't hear me very well. I thought it was cell service.

It seemed to slowly got worse.

It got to the point where people couldn't hear me at all.

I downloaded an app to locate cell towers and service range. Service didn't seem too bad...

Found forums like this one, tried talking on speakerphone. It worked, but people said it was still hard to hear me, cutting in and out, etc. Turned off mic access for ok Google and eventually EVERYTHING else.

Deleted apps even... No fix.

Eventually went to a place I knew had good cell service, called someone, and they couldn't hear me at all! Def not mic access, def not service...

Axons warranty doesn't work for resold phones... The speakers and Dolby..I didn't want to go back to a Samsung or whatever..

That's when I started looking for hardware fixes.

I decided to do a Google search one last time before starting down that road, but looked at videos this time.

And I found a fix!!!!!!

youtu.be/KNGMM-H0oxc

So simple. Take a needle to the tiny mic holes. Mine was so clogged, the junk in it actually looked like the hole until the needle disappeared into it like a toothpick into a brownie hah.

Crystal clear on calls now.

So going back to the forums I read before and posting my fix. Hopefully it helps others.

So happy!
