Why are you returning your phone?

For me, I want to get the international version so I can root it.:D
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrlad:
My 6p is stuck in bootloop of death and since I can't get out of this condition, Google will be sending a replacement unit. Problem is, I can't even factory reset.

1. The stock recovery just flashes no command and won't let me chose the reset option (its almost like the recovery is in a boot loop itself)

2. TWRP reboots when I try to factory reset or even if I try to erase partitions in the advanced menu.

Is there a way from fastboot to erase my data and internal memory partitions?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CyberZeus1977:
Hi, I can suggest you to download latest factory image, reboot to bootloader (power + volume down) and run flash-all.bat.

Cheers!

You can issue:

This will erase userdata...

Thanks for the tip. Already tried factory images for 7.1.1 and 7.1.2. Didn't help. TWRP is very unstable and reboots during various operations. fastboot is stable though. More details in this thread when I was trying to figure out if there was a way to recover. Now I'm just trying to wipe it

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Syn Ack:
Loving the dual audio option, but as an audiophile and weekend local DJ the out of sync-ness is killing me. I can't put two Bluetooth speakers in the same room because there's a seemingly 50-100ms or so delay.

Anyone find any workarounds or fixes?

I'm assume that this technology will get better over time, or hoping so.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] jon_who:
I have the same problem. Really need some app to adjust delay for dual audio.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] One4est1:
Adjust the distance between the speakers and your phone. I use two different types of speakers. Ones Bluetooth is more touchy than the other. So i have to keep one closer to my phone than the other. Once you move them just pause the music and play it again. If it's synced your good, if not, move again and repeat.

Currently Dual playing Mgk - Bad Things on a Buckshot Bluetooth speaker and a sound spot Bluetooth speaker without and audio delay
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] felixrising:
Really can't understand why Samsung hasn't included a auto adjusting delay for dual audio. Just need to ping each speaker with a nice high pitched peep (15-20khz) every few seconds and measure the delay delta between speakers and then delay audio to one of the speakers accordingly. This is becoming less of a special feature and more of a essential function these days. A la Google Home, Sonos, Apple HomePod, etc....
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] danielmm1997:
Something new here?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] IshCray:
Is there an app that can do this? Just delay the audio of one of the 2 bluetooth speakers/connections?

Or

An app that allows the User to set a specified Time Delay to Just One of the Bluetooth connections?

Thx!

*ALTHOUGH*

I JUST tried the other suggestion..

To put one BT Speaker farther away from my S8+ than the other and reconnect..

AAAAND...

Holy Crap! It worked!

I even put them side by side and couldn't notice any delay!

( Using a Verizon S8+ , Amazon Echo 1st Gen [closest] , Amazon Echo Dot [farthest] )

*UPDATE*

It seems, as time goes, the delay slowly finds its way back.. wtf

I'm not sure if this is a stupid question, but can you add bands to the phone? This is because I live in the US and my carrier uses bands 2, 4, and 12. I would just get the A320y which supports bands 2 and 4, but I cannot find it online, only other variants from europe. So is it possible to add those bands to the phone? If not then i'll just consider buying an X compact or something.

I remember back in the Motorola Atrix days we found a way to run the web top on a TV without the need for the dock. Is this possible on this device? I think it might take a few cords, but does the Dock do anything special could it be replaced or avoided all together?

[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] projectyuni5:
I'm having a lot of trouble with this issue, since it starting with me logging out of snapchat, meaning my login would temporarily fail because my device was rooted and had xposed installed. I tried the normal fix to clear the settings for RootCloak and then add Snapchat back to it. But this solution had stopped working. I then misunderstood a fix for uninstalling Xposed to uninstalling root, which I ended up doing so my device had no root and xposed installed. After realizing my error and that I now can't reach TWRP recovery to try and fix it, I tried to flash it with root so that I could start it again with a fresh root. But when I first tried it, it passed, but it was stuck on the samsung s6 edge + loading screen. At that point I tried booting into recovery with Pwr+Volup+Home but it didn't work, just returned a black screen.

Now whenever I try to flash it with the stock rom to start over again, I've now tried it twice, once with a 6.0.1 stock os which failed and one with a 5.1.1 stock which also failed.

What do I do to fix this? Can someone help?

Thanks.

Was curious which unlock feature every one uses. Explain why you use it.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] masbirdies:
none unless I am going out of the house. Most happy with finger print and iris scanner.

If finger print not working well, start over. That worked for me
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] FluxionFluff:
I use like 3 of these things, so sucks I can't select all 3 of them on the poll. I use the fingerprint scanner, iris scanner, and pin. Pin is my backup password. I use the iris scanner every so often, as I wanted to try it out since I've never used one before.

The fingerprint scanner is my primary security unlock feature as I'm used to using it from my S6. The scanner, despite the not so optimal location but still usable, is pretty accurate and faster than it was on the S6. The only thing that sucks about the fingerprint scanner, because of the new location, registering fingerprints is rather annoying. This is because if you're the tiniest bit off, it'll give you an error. Once it's registered, it's nowhere as painful to use thankfully.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] shadowdudez2:
Interesting, i thought you can only have 1 feature active at a time. Unless you turn the other one off and switch between the 3.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] FluxionFluff:
If you use biometrics, you MUST have a backup password (pin, pattern, password). For my S6, I used the fingerprint scanner and pin (was also useful when the reader was stupid about reading my prints... XP). I actually wasn't sure if you could have more than 1 biometric feature active, with the backup, but apparently, you can.

The only thing you can't mix in is the facial recognition, because that can't be used in conjunction with the iris scanner. With the fingerprint scanner, it should be fine, though I've never tried the facial unlocking feature, mainly because it's not secure -- convenient, but that's about it, haha.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] shadowdudez2:
Cool, didn't know that myself. Unfortunately I can't go back and edit the poll so you can vote on multiple things lol :D

Haha no prob. :P Learn something new everyday~ :) Ahh, didn't know you can't edit polls after posting them, so that sucks, but oh well. I'll just put fingerprint as I use it the most.

Yeah, I never had a problem with the location, because of the way I hold phones, but the only time I have issues using the scanner is when I use my Spigen Slim Armor CS case, as it's a thicker case, compared to my Neo Hybrid, so the cutouts for the back sensors are a bit deep (least for me). I'm getting used to it, lawl.

- uninstall all unnecessary apps, especially the ones with a widget on the screen

- Disable bluetooth when not used

- Install greenify and hibernate the apps that still run in the background when exited (for example to display notification crap or advertisement)

- Tweak the battery profile to "automatic", the system chooses itself the profile the most accurate. For me it's "efficient"

I do not have root access to use task killer apps , so I had to find out what app is cussing this problem.

Finally after few weeks checks I found out it is GOOGLE CHROME , Disabling google chrome and using some other browser like Samsung internet fixed my issue.
