[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] ChrisM75:
Firstly, it could well be fixed by software, even if its uneven, HTC had issues with the camera doing this a number of years ago (big red spot in all pictures). It was fixed with software

Secondly, it might disappear with time. AMOLED, OLED and other self lighting technologies (like Plasma in TVs) have a bed in time, where some colour ranges need to burn in. I would suggest a full red screen using a screen tester app for a few hours, to see if it beds in the red.

Guys, I would like to take this device, there is a possibility of having a faded display?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] mrvain84:
I have the same and it drives me crazy. I can see this blueish glow around the edges when I look straight at the screen, in my case it is more visible on right side. I created new thread for that as I'm not sure if I should replace it or not.

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] TML1504:
of course i checked all parameters...

this would be extremly difficult to fix with a software solution, as every device has a little different tint or hue, what makes it way worse is the NON-UNIFORMITY. a suitable patch would have to be user-adjustable (not only in color, but in shape and size), and samsung wont do that!

general update:

i've seen 12 devices (s8+) for now, and 9 of them have noticable display flaws (red tint, blut tint, non-uniformity, different max. brightness, ...)!

so it is legit to say that samsung does have problems here!

as i wrote in the first post, i notice this since years. and now with the S8+ it got worse then on previous generations. even the media cover these problems now, this was NOT the case with the Note3, Note4, S7, ... but the problems were basically the same there!!

some users say that you have to accept that, or take a phone from another manufacturer. sorry, this is BIG BS!!

as i also wrote there ARE devices with almost perfect screens existing, but you have to cycle through a big batch of devices to get one, i call this the "display lottery"!

at least for me i can say that i will again switch through how many devices it takes to get a decent one. i do not want to pay 900€ for a device with a flawed screen!!
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Coolboyslimuk:
S8 red/pink tint

The red tint is an issue .. out of 15 stores tried all s8 and s8 plus and every one has this issue. When you go to the display settings and use anything other than adaptive it's there. The other issue that people are missing is these settings seem to do nothing but make a red tint. No colour popping in cinema etc. Compare it to s7 edge and see. It's nonsense s7 edge is better in all them modes . But in adaptive s8 seems fine. Great phone but has issues . Also I did do a Samsung tech group support and he was saying that everyone who has done the tech says the same. So if 2 week back they did tech groups the issue is deffo more than is being said.

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] ggrant3876:
Received mine on the 19th of April, early batch, not a single issue. I believe a lot of the issue reported are user error and not the phone. The screen, that's a different animal but as I said before not one single issue with mine.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] fabiocpinto:
Mine have the red screen tint even after the update, and if I try that fix and put it on cold and reduce the red, I see some rainbow effect on the edges, more proeminent on the left side and top, and it still have some reddish tint on low left corner, and that completely messes with my eyes...

I've had an S7 Edge and never experienced any of this problems, I was with it yesterday and it was amazing compared to this S8+. It's a shame that samsung have such a poor screens on this flagship.

[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sipas4:
Hello.

I bought an M9, that is stuck on bootloader, but also can boot to recovery, willing to fix it, but haven't checked recovery before paying and this is what I got:

wiping, formatting, adb sideload error - unable to mount /data, /cache/, /system and it shows that cache is 0mb, ok this is one is maybe ok, but system is 0mb, data 0mb, android secure 0mb. I'm using twrp v2.8.7.0, tried flashing stock recovery or other version though fastboot, no errors, but recovery won't change and boots to same twrp recovery.

Tried to fix this using corrupted data partition fix method > http://android-revolution-hd.blogspot.lt/2013/10/fix-data-htc-one.html

but this is what I got:

I don't think it should be 32 inodes, 64 blocks, same as others in bold.

I don't know what to do, if someone could help me fix this I could transfer to PP let's say 20$, as, in my opinion, this problem could take some time to sort out and at least I would be lazy to help someone that much.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shivadow:
That looks to me like a borked nand and no spare blocks to use. Ive seen software lying around on the web that is the same software htc use to flash the nand in its raw state. Although this could be worth trying I'm quite sure the nand is beyond repair.

Solid state drives die if they go corrupt due to their design. One block dies, they all die.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Jaisun:
can someone please put me through the steps of how to update my device manually as i have not done this before. I'm currently using MIUI Global Stable 8.2.5.0.

and also one more thing..in all the benchmark apps and also in my device's info section, the device is marked as redmi note 4 instead of redmi note 4x. But all the physical redmi 4x traits are there in my device as there are no screws beside the micro usb port, the Snapdragon 625 is present, the notification light is on the left of the speaker and the IR blaster is not in the middle, it is on the right side at the top of the device. Can anyone clarify why this might be the case?

Thank you!

[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] zalan1312:
Hello XDA,

I have a question for you. I'll present the situation first: I bought an EE unlocked Pixel XL, it works perfectly fine with any SIM, BUT it has Andoird 7.1 . It won't let me update it, downloads update (660 MB) and when installing, stops at 10% of the step 1.

Question is, if I flash stock again, will it work with any SIM or it would need unlocking again?

Or how can I update to latest without losing this SIM unlock? :D
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] 5.1:
Hello,

Sim unlock should be independent and flashing stock firmware shouldn't sim lock your phone again...

First, enable USB debugging on your phone in developer options...

You can try to sideload the latest 7.1.2 OTA from recovery. Download latest OTA from Google here: https://developers.google.com/android/ota

N2G47E I guess. Plug your phone with USB cord to your computer and simply follow the guide from the link above to apply the OTA...

If that doesn't work either, maybe you should flash factory image

Is your bootloader already unlocked? I heard sim unlocked EE can unlock bootloader. Go in developer option and see if you can toggle "OEM unlock"

If it works, enable "OEM unlock"

Backup all personal data: photos, music, videos, documents from your internal storage. Unlocking bootloader will wipe your phone...

You'll need latest platform-tools including ADB/fastboot:

https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools.html

Unzip platform-tools, plug your phone to your computer, reboot to bootloader and open a command prompt in the platform-tools folder (shift + right click on Windows: "open a command prompt here") and type:

fastboot flashing unlock

Check your phone. Use volume rocker to select yes and press power button to unlock the bootloader.

Once your bootloader is unlocked, reboot to bootloader again.

Download latest factory image from Google here: https://developers.google.com/android/images

N2G47E is the latest.

Unzip the folder and navigate inside. Phone plugged to your computer, double click on the flash-all.bat and let it finish. It will reboot.

Your system is now up to date. Enjoy... :good:

Let me know if you encounter any issue.

Good luck...

Hey,

You're welcome :)

[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] zalan1312:
Thank you for the very. very helpful answer. I solved it and here's how.

So, bootloader was unlocked, I tried to lock it again, maybe that was the reason why it won't let me update OTA. After re-locking I couldn't start the phone at all. I powered it on, and got this screen :

- the red error

The phone just showed me this screen and was supposed to boot normally after 10 seconds but instead it turned off. The bootloader was locked and couldn't flash anything.

Solution for this problem: just start it in bootloader mode, connect to PC, start a command prompt and type

Fastboot continue

After this, the phone starts normally, you can enable developer settings and OEM unlocking and also USB debugging.

Now you're ready to flash, just follow [MENTION=4550510]5.1[/MENTION]'s very good tutorial.

I didn't encounter any problem after flashing the latest android, it's still unlocked, I can use any SIM.

Hope it helps also other users. :good:

Thanks for helping. :good:

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itsmarc19:
Need help guys. Hopefully this is okay since I'm using the S6 regular Dual-sim Philippines model. I'm using 2 sims (Globe and Sun network) and I always use my Globe network for mobile internet since it's faster. Now, when I use the LTE capable network for mobile internet for a couple of minutes (possibly hours as well), both of my sim cards would suddenly shut down (their mobile icon turns hollow, mobile internet disconnects. Sorry I can't provide the screenshot since i forgot while making this post). After a while, both networks will have their signal back and I can resume browsing again. This usually becomes a problem when i play online games since the game constantly checks for a working internet connection and it cuts me off the server if i'd lose my internet for a few seconds. What i've tried is that I'd turn off the other sim card (Sun sim card) but since I also use this sim for communicating with people, I can't turn the sim off permanently. Can someone please enlighten me on what to do or what might be the problem? Is this supposed to happen to the dual-sim variant of the S6? Hope you can help me out guys.. Sorry for the long post though.

TLDR: Using dual-sim variant of S6 (Philippines). Using two sim card networks (one for internet, one for texting/calling). When using mobile internet (LTE mode) for a couple of minutes or hours, both sim networks would suddenly shut down and I would lose my internet connection. Turning the non-internet network/sim off somehow fixes the issue but I need both networks on since people would call me at the non-internet network sometimes. Is this expected from a dual-sim variant or is there anything i could do to fix this. Thanks guys!

It's really simple, you have to install microG service core from here: https://github.com/microg/android_packages_apps_GmsCore/releases/latest

For geolocation, you can follow this guide: https://github.com/microg/android_packages_apps_UnifiedNlp

For play store replacement, I advice Yalp Store

For cast, I advice BubbleUpnp because the cast api with microG doesn't work

Next, open microG settings, go to "Self-Check" and check if it's all ok!
