[LG G6 Questions and Answers] HumphreyM:
Interesting! I've just ordered this model (H870DS) off eBay, but I'm from Australia. However, I just spend a month in the USA using a Pre-Paid AT&T SIM in my Australian HTC M8. I choose AT&T because it looked like they supported all the LTE frequencies that my phone did. However, I found myself stuck on 3G for the entire trip. It worked ok, so I didn't bother trying to fix it, but I'll keep this in mind if I ever head back to the states!
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] tanostoyano:
I was also stressing out with no LTE issue on H870DS untill I found that the phone has LTE off by default. Go to Settings>more (under connectivity)>Mobile networks>Network mode to change it.

I am on Cricket (at&t) network in Chicago. LTE works just as well compared to my LG G3 D850 that has all the AT&T LTE bands.

The only one inconvenience is that you have to do it everityme you restart the phone. It goes back to HSPA (3G).
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] HumphreyM:
That's super weird and annoying! it must be super-hard to use non-US phones in the states!

For any Australians out there. The H870DS works flawlessly in Australia on Telstra. It just worked, and I almost always have a 4G+ icon in the top right. I haven't tried any of the dual-sim features yet (as I've only got a single sim)
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] AM Radio:
fwiw: H870DS pulling 4G+/LTE in Canada, on Koodo.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Chrjz:
Did you have to do anything in particular to get LTE working? I'm on Koodo and only getting 3G. If I put the SIM in my Nexus 6P it gets LTE no problem
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] AM Radio:
nope, just plugged the sim in. note that you're not going to see "LTE" as notification. you'll see "4G+" -- it's an Asian thing.

however, you can verify you're getting LTE in About Phone > Network > Mobile Network Type
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Chrjz:
Man, that's frustrating for me... I get the 3G icon and my network is HSPA.

When I search for networks Koodo comes up as WCDMA and not LTE, too. I have preferred network on 4G/3G/2G. I don't know what else to try. Any suggestions?
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] AM Radio:
whoa. that's weird. you have the DS version of the G6, from Taiwan? i literally just popped in my SIM, got 4G+/LTE and was good to go. the G6 even identifies Koodo as the network, when on previous unlocked phones it would show "Telus" -- and i didn't even dabble with network settings. have you tried manually applying the Koodo APN settings?
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Chrjz:
Yeah, model is LG-H870DS... from Hong Kong I believe. It lists band 4 on the box, which is what Koodo uses if I'm not mistaken.

I'm on Koodo Prepaid; I don't know if that makes a difference. I may bring it to the store and see if I need to activate the IMEI with the network or something. I don't know :rolleyes:
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] ASW1:
So pop in someone else's sim card and see what happens.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] bdithug:
I'm on Fido here in Canada with the H870DS. I get LTE no problem, just had to update my APN settings.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Chrjz:
Well, I actually popped my SIM card back into my Nexus 6P and got an app to tell me what band it was on... Turns out it's using band 2 in my area.

Oh well... I can live with 3G I guess. I'm still curious to try another carrier's SIM and see if I can get LTE at all.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Em0ry42:
I've got my H870DS working on AT&T LTE (NW Oregon) but I'm having this issue where I have to select the Preferred Network mode every time I reboot. Is there any known fix or work around for this? I know it's silly but I'm hoping to have this phone for a few years and I imagine selecting that thing every week or so is going to get old fast.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] TNT Tech:
Yes there is a setting in the phone located at Settings>Networks>More>Mobile networks>Network mode>GSM/WCDMA/LTE Auto

The only issue is that it will reset everytime you restart your phone

Ihas anyone had any luck with the sdcard not showing up in TWRP? tried multiple things to no avail. And help would be greatly appreciated :)

same issue here. I've tried multiple filesystem formats (fat32, exfat, NTFS, f2fs) with no luck.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] Limon_Lime:
don't think there's a fix for it yet
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Haints:
Just bought a used Note 5 and I love it. I want to put a ROM on it eventually and was wondering if I should let it update in the meantime, or is it harder to root with a newer OS?

Please advise.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] bogarty:
Yes. Let it update. You want to install it any way you can and you would have to reroot anyway. I made an easy guide for this here.

https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=71988479

If you update through official OTA though, then just start on step 2 to install TWRP recovery and do the root stuff. Be sure to glance at the instructions pictured in step 1 though, as they are the same process for step 2. Anyhow, good luck and if you have any questions just ask over there. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Questions & Answers] chanukya:
I bought and returned this tablet in the first week it came out because my unit appeared to be missing OTG functionality. I used it with 2 different USB-C to USB adapters and could not make it work.

At the time, a couple of senior members on XDA got OTG to work so I assumed I had a bad unit. Since it's been about a month since it's out, wanted to find out if others have consistently been able to get OTG to work. I see from other posts that usb-to-HDMI does not work, but have all of you been able to use OTG to connect to usb drives? If so, could you share which adapters you are using? Thanks..
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Questions & Answers] jonathonalexander:
I was having some OTG USB 3.0 issues, the sticks worked on my OnePlus 3, but were not detected by the tablet... had me worried, but it was simply a case of reformatting the USB sticks on my PC and it all worked again.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Questions & Answers] Zimus:
I have 2 different USB3-to-USBC OTG adapters and both work w/o any problems on my S3. I've used them for thumb dives (USB2) and USB wireless mice. Unfortunately I cannot recall their specific model numbers as I've had them both for 6+ months, but their brand is stamped on them. One is a white Insignia that I probably bought at Best Buy and the other is a black "Cable Creation".
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Questions & Answers] radioham:
No matter which brand of usb stick. The only important thing is file format. I don't known for the Tab S3, but at this day all Samsung smartphones and tablets I've tested only recognize FAT32 and EXFAT file format. I've tested this on Galaxy S4 S5 S5 Mini S7 J5 and TAB S S2 S2 VE A10.1 2016.

NTFS file format is NOT recognized BUT on some devices you can read it with ES FILE EXPLORER (maybe other file browsers too but I didn't try them).

For me if you don't root your device, the only two limitations on Samsung devices weres unability to read NTFS and no DTS and AC3 audio CODEC.

Both problems can be solved, NTFS by ES FILE EXPLORER, and DTS/AC3 by MX PLAYER CUSTOM CODEC which can be found on XDA Developpers.

Greetings to XDA!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Questions & Answers] radioham:
I've tested USB OTG on Galaxy Tab S3: like other Samsung devices it reads FAT32 and ExFAT file formats but doesn't recognize NTFS.

Anyway like I've told before you can use ES FILE EXPLORER to access to NTFS USB drives.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Questions & Answers] diehard2013:
IIRC, OCZ usb drives were notorious.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Questions & Answers] radioham:
"OTG" is not a brand.

It means "On The Go".

Any brand can work with the right file format.

It's the same with USB micro SD cards.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Questions & Answers] krunel:
I just got a usb-c otg cable today & was trying a few usb drives and ssds with the tab s3. All worked except one of the ssd's (exFAT). It appeared to be not getting enough enough power from the usb port. I charged the tab to full & re-tried the failing ssd: it then worked. For what it's worth I'd noticed similar behaviour with the same ssd on a tab s2: sometimes it would work, sometimes I'd have to connect a usb power bank using a usb y splitter cable. My tab s3 firmware is AQBB and rooted.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Questions & Answers] sirscrubsalot:
Has anyone here been able to get OTG-External NTFS HDD detection and mounting to work with this kernel that is said to have NTFS support in its kernel (I know by default, it's only ExFat/Fat32):

[SM-T820,825] Flash-Kernel V.1.1 Permissive, Wifi Fixed [NTFS + USB-OTG Support]

https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-tab-s3/development/sm-t825-flash-kernel-0-1-permissive-t3692328

Since this kernel has SE Linux permissive permissions, I thought Stickmount Pro-Root would work but all it does is detect the drives to mount but then samsung disables them as corrupt and switches to charging mode.

I outlined in much more detail in comments: #23, #25, #27 in the link above - I wanted to get MX Player Pro to load and play my media found on the external NTFS drives that are on a powered USB hub and USB-C OTG. I could easily do this with over 20TB's of multiple external NTFS hdd's on my 2012 Nexus and other nexus/motorola devices. The OTG-C cables I have (2 different that I use) are fine as they work on the other non-samsung devices.

There are other custom ROM's for the galaxy tab s2 which can mount NTFS hdd's like above. Hopefully we can get some others to share their experience and knowledge to troubleshoot.

When did they add this feature to do simple things like quick compose and navigate to saved addresses? What other apps have these kind of options?

Google is including force touch for the pixel 2, so most the popular google apps now have a long press feature.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kareeem:
I just got my Moto s9's and the sound is great. One problem i have though is that i hear a LOT of static when the sound is high. How can i fix this? Second thing is what are the best registry edits combos that work for the loudest and clearest sound for listening to audio and talking through them?

I also realized that when i press the right button, it pops up the speech recognition thing and i want it to pop up voice command, is it possible? Thanks a lot.

edit: there is also a lot of skipping.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] mike19722:
????

I here that sound too.......now that you said something I'm not crazy....I wish there is a fix .....my S9 are awsome

skipping chang the bit pool to a lower setting...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kareeem:
Great, thank you. now i have another problem, i can't get it to reconnect after it's idle! the only thing that works is the voice thingy and that's it. no music, no calls, no nothing. this happened after i installed the a2dp fix.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kareeem:
Nvm, i got the skipping worked (thanks mike!) now i have the static sound on my TIlt and it's horrible, on my 8525 it's PERFECT. i also can't get voice command to come on instead of the voice recognition thingy. so any help would be great, thanks.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kareeem:
also, i can't get them to work on my pc, i have the widcomm drivers but they would connect and then disconnect, any ideas?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] mike19722:
hello

ok.....the noise that you get from the headset can be fixed try to 1) delete your H9's from device and repair them to your phone...pretend you just got them and your pairing them for the first time...see if that works....2) uninstall your AD2P fix......sometimes putting a fix cab or a zip file and unzipping it and applying it to your phone screws up yor phone's ability to run properly 3) how long ago did you get your H9's.....if you can return them or exchange them do so.

just a thought ....I put many rom's on my phone and they are awsome..BUT.....I've come to a understanding ...I had to replace my tilt once because I THINK it couldn't take the flashing.....You know what I did .....everything looks the same, like I flashed my rom ...but I didn't, all I installed we're cab file NO FLASHING OF ROM and my phone has run fine since then...I mean everything.....I'm not saying not to change your rom ...you can, but everything now latey, things come in cab format.....also uninstall and reinstall voice command.....then soft reset....my voice command over rides voice dial .........private msg me and if you want we can talk over these phone problems by e-mail or live person to person over our cell phones that's is fine with me

peace

mike
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kareeem:
Great, thanks a lot. I got the s9's a few days ago and love them. I'm trying to get voice command now to work on them through the mic but i can't for some reason. I also want them to work on my PC and have the widcomm stack, any ideas on that? If you have AIM, then i can talk there or msn or yahoo. If none, email's fine.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronfouchier:
Hey there,

my Nexus 5 (Android 6.0.1, Security Patch-Level: 2017/10/05) appears to be suffering from a stuck volume up button.

I have had a similar problem regarding the power button, which sent my Nexus 5 into endless bootloops. I was able to solve the power button problem by hitting the phone against the palm of my hand repeatedly.

In the case of the power button there doesn't seem to be an easy fix. Smacking it against my hand did not do the trick. The problem appears to occur randomly with the ringtone and/or media volume jumping to full blast from one second to the next.

In some cases I can lower the volume and it stays that way. Other times I can press and hold the volume down button and upon release it jumps right back to full volume.

I will try the following steps:

1) Diassemble the phone and clean the buttons

2) Flash the stock ROM to make sure, that it is not a software issue

I was wondering if you had any ideas/ additional steps, which I can take to fix the problem?

Thanks in advance!

Ron
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OldoTRONic:
Just got mine back from repair, got stuck in bootloop, only new microswitch helped.

I also suspected the ROM, but now it's fine again.

So I do recommend to change the microswitch, it's cheap...

Just be careful (or mention it to whoever will do it), it's being held in place not just with the solder but also somehow glued to the PCB. Don't force it too much. Take your time.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bryon15:
Okay so I started out with a google nexus 7 2012 model. It was great for it's time. The only thing I disliked about it was the lack of a memory card slot. It lasted for about two and a half years. Then it started to get bogged down, slow, choppy, unresponsive. So in December 2014 I bought an Asus memo pad 7 me572c. Once again it was great. Very light weight and actually had an SD card slot. I loved it. But now almost two and a half years later, the same thing is happening. It's becoming unresponsive. The touch screen barely works. It's slow and choppy.

So now I'm searching for a new tablet. Nothing bigger than 8 inches. Light weight, with an SD card slot, at least 2gb of ram (more would be better). I'm having a lot of trouble finding one though. Do you guys have any recommendations?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pr1uk1:
I have an Amazon Fire TV HD 8 and with Play store and other third party apps its a good little tablet they do an even bigger better looking 10 inch as well, but be careful if buying secondhand if it's been stolen or there is another reason it' can be blacklisted by Amazon and made useless.

Hello guys

im currently busy with theming my xperia z1 for best results and productivity while being mirrored to my tv..

What I wanna from you is suggestions, discussion, some apps that make gaming more interesting on android (usually i play games on my ps4 but there is also some good android games that i wouldn't miss for nothing).

Anything that make user experience better will help.

I will keep you up to date with screenshots and photos of my little project. But first.. lets see what you have to say about it. Share here what games are you playing..

Did they support dualshock 4 controller..

What do you think in general about gaming on mobile devices?

P.S. for my initial setup I'm using square launcher 2 with some modifications of default settings, and custom wallpaper, here is a picture

Hope you like it guys
[Xperia Z1 Themes and Apps] benplay:
I'm also searching a way to recycle my z1 and your setup seems to be pretty cool but how did you connected your device to your TV? i think i will do the same as you and i will try to shape a wood block that should block the phone always in charge. It should be cool ;)
[Xperia Z1 Themes and Apps] AndroidSoftmods:
Hi.. I use screen mirroring to wirelessly connect to my tv. you can do it also if your tv support wireless connection. you actually point it right.. this is cool way to use your Xperia Z1 as a secondary phone which you don't really need to use for another purposes like calling, messaging etc.. and if you like its functionality and options which are pretty cool u can use it in many ways. Multimedia centar, netflix player, game console powered by Android etc.. I like the idea of wooden frame, but personally i prefer dock station in that purposes. share the photo here when you make it done
[Xperia Z1 Themes and Apps] benplay:
Ok thanks but my TV isn't supporting wireless connection and my internet connection is too bad. So i will buy it : https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=as_li_...in-20&linkId=9776fdae9d8e1d6a196824d66a5356ae

then a dualshock 3 and expect that all is working. And then i will build the base. I think i will do it like a nintendo switch base. But do you know if your launcher is dualshock compatible?
[Xperia Z1 Themes and Apps] AndroidSoftmods:
Your controller can manage all your apps. I have a problem with pulling down notification bar, so i putted the button on my homescreen for that.

Just discovered an issue where once I select the voice mail message it starts playing as soon as I put the phone to my ear the screen flashes on and the voicemail stops playing - it'll play if I use speaker but not if I listen to it via the ear piece - it stops after a few seconds. Maybe proximity sensor issue?

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] equake:
Root cause of the issue possibly lies in how Nougat handles security permissions since there are reports from S6/S7/Note 5 owners with the same issues when they were updated to Nougat from Samsung. Visual VM app definitely needs updating.

my 2 cents.

The other workaround is just to always keep Samsung Pay in the background. I've found that if Samsung Pay is running VVM would not pause.

my 2 cents
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] keeganzero:
Not a solution to the problem, but a workaround is installing Google Voice and forwarding your VM service to Google Voice until the problem is solved.

I actually prefer Voice over Verizon VM because it will transcript your VMs for free whereas 'Enhanced Voicemail' is a paid service through Verizon.

I like your idea or suggestion. Could I kindly ask you how you went about doing this? If Google Voice does the same thing as Verizon VVM, I'm all about saving a little $. Thanks!
