Same issue

I have the same issue. I receive many WA calls and normal calls during weekend evenings with people inquiring about my recording studio. they are probably drunk in some bar and think they are musicians and want to get a price on recordings at 2 o'clock on a Saturday morning. at the same time my mum is rather old and I want to be able to allow her to call me at any time during the night in an emergency, for this reason I also set up dnd so that my wife, my son and my mum can reach me at night. I want to allow them to message or call me therefore I cannot turn off messaging. WhatsApp rings through this no matter what I do. WhatsApp still rings through the dnd settings. tried all the settings you guys have mentioned above in this thread and none are helping. my present solution - which is not ideal - is to Simply disable WhatsApp voice calls. if anyone has a solution please post. I use a Samsung Galaxy Note 8.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] tiho5:
Also looking for a solution on this. Very annoying.

I also use Viber and it's the same.

How can Viber and WhatsApp not obey DnD/Android system settings!?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] jahanzzzeb:
Just started having this issue on Pixel 3 for a week now. Seems like a bug in whatsapp as some apple ios users are facing the same issue with WhatsApp managing to break the DND rules.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions & Answers] bradingo:
So Sprint has a BOGO Galaxy S8 Lease deal right now. 1 can be an upgrade but at least 1 has to be a new line. I currently have 2 lines on their unlimited plan. Current phones are paid off.

Would it be possible to:

Port my # to Google Voice from my current line

Upgrade my spouses phone using the BOGO Galaxy S8+ offer. Open new line for the second phone on the unlimited plan.

Port my Google Voice # to the new line & cancel my original line

Is this allowed? Is there a downside?

Other questions:

Also, is buying out your lease the same cost paying via the 24 installment plan?

Will I be able to unlock/re-flash my Sprint GS8 so that I can use it on T-Mobile in a few months?

Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions & Answers] dmcgrath009:
Yes this should work. there will be some time delay with the google voice port out and back in maybe you should open a new line on sprint first to do everything, then port out your wife's line to Google Voice then back in after the wait time is up replacing the new number you received.

1) It is more expensive to lease then buy out compared to installments.

2) if the device is paid off fully and on your account for 6 months is the rule technically.... I've seen it happen before that.

Let me know if you have any other questions, I worked for Sprint until roughly 6 moths ago.
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] jtadak:
So out of the blue I've acquired a faint bar right down the middle of my entire screen. At first it was only on the always on display screen now it seem permanent on my main interface. Not to mention I'm getting extreme glitching when I scroll. Obviously I'm taking it down to Sprint but I'm pretty pissed off. I'm definitely not paying the deductible. I have never dropped it or anything. Not a good sign I may be returning it all together. I'm going to factory reset it but I've had issues like these before and it was always hardware ?
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] chrisokaly:
sprint gives customers the option for paying the deductible? i may have to switch carriers.
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] jtadak:
When claiming warranty you pay the deductible
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] skyfox99:
There is no warranty deductible. You are claiming insurance on the phone if you are paying a deductible.
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] jtadak:
That's what I meant
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] jtadak:
Anyway I took it in and they replaced it no questions. The display was defective
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] jaqual:
Glad you got your issue fixed.

Consumer electronics like cell phones, toasters. DVD players etc. are at best manufactured to class 2 standards, which doesn't require 100% functional testing, and has(if I remember correctly) a 25% acceptability rate for failures. Defects looks yours are to be expected.
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] rubiicon59:
Don't talk crap man.

So if it was your phone you would accept such a defect and carry on using it without complaint?

Somehow I think not.
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] skyfox99:
I don't think he was talking crap, just merely pointing out how disappointingly low standards are for Q/C for major electronic devices.
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Saythis:
Still, this phone has had far less evident issues than the S8 since launch in my opinion.
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] B3501:
No, the S8 has had more publicity and because it's sold way more.
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Saythis:
Red screen tint, WiFi issues, Random restarts. That's more than the G6 has shown regardless of sales. Those are things that should have been fixed pre-production or at the very least pre-sale. Especially considering Samsung's revenue stream. The random restarts haven't even been fixed yet ?
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] B3501:
All overblown and only apparent because tech websites are looking for issues or for the next exploding battery problem. I guarantee any problems are within QC boundaries.
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Killua96:
We should call it the Samsung S-G5 :D
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] LimitsX:
Pink/Red tint issue is real. I had bought newly manufactured S8 and S8+ (April production), still same problem. The software update made it worse. Low Wifi signal at 5GHZ is a problem still. The weak Wifi signal has been a problem since S4, S6, and now S8.

S8 has a weak speaker compared to S7. These are real problems that samsung will not fix. They haven't fixed Weak Wifi and network signal issue since S4 days.
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] jaqual:
Not talking crap, just pointing out something that people seem to not understand. There's always comments like this, about things that don't work right.

I'm not saying I would just carry on without complaint, but, as you have done, that complaint should be aimed at the manufacturer, or the store where you got it.

I was just wondering why, after you had only one defect, and had your issue resolved, was it necessary to create a new thread with negative remarks, giving prospective buyers a bad image of a decent device.

Maybe if more people understood the manufacturing process and quality requirements of consumer electronics, there would be less complaints. That's all I'm after.
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] rubiicon59:
Umm....

I haven't a clue what you're on about matey.

I'm not the O/P. And I haven't had any problems with a G6. I don't own one yet, my delivery has been screwed up so instead of receiving it today I'll have it either tomorrow or Monday.

Wana post me some of that gear you're smoking...? ;)
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] jaqual:
Well since you're the one who said "don't talk crap," I was obviously responding to you. I wasn't meaning you specifically have a G6, just was explaining how I wasn't talking crap by explaining what I originally said about having defects.

Trying to have an honest conversation and I'm "talking crap" or "smoking." [emoji20]
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] rubiicon59:
Hmmm....

Still don't make sense but OK :o
[Sony Xperia XA Questions & Answers] R3yN:
Good day.

I cant restore my backup in sd card after unlocking bootloader. Is thia normal bc of the unlocking and rokting of the device?

Is there anyways yo make it work?

I tried installing other app from playstore to try restoring my backup but my backup file is not showing in other apps.

I wanna get atleast my contact backups :/

Any idea? Thanks in advance
[Sony Xperia XA Questions & Answers] Siam4k:
Titanium backUp is best app for backup and restore and even you can create zip file for flash in recovery.

I unlocked and rooted my device and titanium work well.
[Sony Xperia XA Questions & Answers] R3yN:
i used the restore and backup from setting menu. i backup before i unlock bloadr and root the device hoping i can restore my contacts and settings. after i unlock the bootloadr and root i use the restore from the setting menu. but it wont work. i tried many different backup & restore app but to no avail.

[Sony Xperia XA Questions & Answers] Siam4k:
Open the phone app on your phone, then check contacts, menu amd check the filters.

I had same problem. I had all my contacts backed up to my Google accountsettings.with Synch i was restored my contacts but all my apps and call logs were gone.
[Sony Xperia XA Questions & Answers] R3yN:
No contact found.

I think its bec i turned off the contact sync before.

Thanks for the advice

No such update has been announced or come out.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
If is 7.0 if this is accurate... https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/forums/v3_1/forumtopicpage/board-id/449/thread-id/19016/page/2 although it seems very limited rollout as of now.

And will you get it on VPN? Depends when your IMEI is up for it, your phone should display the notification but will need WiFi to actually download the reported 1.2GB update. The fact you're​ on a VPN shouldn't matter too much but it would depend on many factors.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zack777:
Then it's maybe it's because I manually flashed the the stock image. And after the original 6.0 I didn't get the security update (not sure which month) which was released.

I just hope the 7.1.1 factory image is put up online, so we can flash it (just like i did with Android 6.0).
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
OK, stop saying 7.1.1 please (some people might get the wrong idea), it is 7.0 and that's it, no 7.0.1 or 7.1.0 or 7.1.1... and this will likely be the last upgrade we get on this device, although I do expect one more bug fix or security patch and this device will move into limbo for Motonova.

Will you get it over a VPN? We really don't know, but as far as we can tell, it isn't "really" rolling out yet, so have patience and see. Will we get the image to flash manually? Probably, but I wouldn't expect it before July... 3 months is typical before we see the factory image surface, but that's just from looking at it previous releases, it could be less, more, or never.
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] Jess813:
I purchased this great phone from someone that I know and he unlocked the bootloader but did not read it. I don't have a PC but do have a Mac how can I relock the bootloader so I can use Android pay? Or is there a way I can use Android pay where unlock Bootloader and not having to root?
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] The Unknown123:
you can use turbo z kernel with stock rom and it will pass safetynet.
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] Jess813:
Ok thanks for your reply, but do you know if there's a way for me to do this on a Mac?
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] The Unknown123:
i think the process is the same for mac. you get fastboot and adb set up, flash twrp then flash the kernel in twrp.

i have an unlocked Tilt with Dutty's Dual Touch Rom V.3... big thanks to dutty for his work...

here's a few things i've noticed so far... been playing around with the phone for a few days now... and done a ton of reading up here and at xda...

1) ringer doesn't ring in my BT Headset (SE HBH-610a).. just hear a plain ringer in the headset but the mp3 ringer plays on the phone... my e61i paired with the same headset used to play the mp3 ringer on the phone and headset... any way to change this??? and when i silence the ringer on the phone, it still keeps ringing in the headset... go figure that one out...

2) i don't hear anything in the headset when there is a SMS notification... plus i can't silence the SMS notification when it does come in... have to let the tone play out in full... very annoying at times... and the sms tone plays while i'm on a call... the very weird thing here is that it won't ring in my headset when i get a notification when i'm not on a call but if i'm on a call then the sound will play in my headset even though i'm on a call... makes no sense for it to do that...

3) there isn't any way to group contacts or send group txt msgs... though i've been looking really hard to find a good program to do this... you'd think a phone with a full keyboard would have some sort of program to send group txt msgs... can anyone suggest a good program???

4) can't figure out how to use mp3's as a ringer for the alarm... figured out how to add them to the sms notifications but not having any luck for the alarm... again, i'm sure i could add a program that could do that but would be nice to use mp3 ringer with the original alarm...

other than that.... love the phone... i'm sure all of those are just minor and i need to tweak things a bit... i'll keep searching around but if anyone has any suggestions for apps or anything else, any help would be much appreciated...

also looking for some type of app that would have the phone say the name of the person calling... it comes with all nokia phones these days and i find it very convenient... my e61i used to say the name of anyone that was in my phone book... very handy sometimes when u can't reach into ur pocket to see who's calling...

also notice a similar problem to someone else here... i'm on the fido network in canada and saw a post about someone not receiving calls all the time... it's happened to me a couple times over the past couple days... i put my band to gsm only and i'll update if i notice any difference...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] krazy5abi:
figured out the group stuff and group sms stuff... and got a good alarm app that uses mp3s...

still havin the BT probs... 1 & 2 from my above post r very irritating problems... anyone have any recomendations??

anyone know an app that is something like this... preferably free...

i like the hear who's calling function... very convenient when u can't grab the phone outta ur pocket...

Hello All,

I don't know what happened and I did not intentionally change any settings (maybe on accident?) but today when I checked my phone I discovered that all my notifications from the top of my screen are now uniformed instead of displaying notification from mails, different apps etc. I'm wondering how I can get back to the default setting where each app has its own notification icon. Please see the attached picture for reference of what I'm talking about, thank you so much!

Font Size

Sleep

Brightness Level

Auto rotate screen

Battery percentage

Notification Ligh

Display pedometer

Screen effect

Cast screen

I downloaded the update but was unable to update it because I had install TWRP. After the installation failed because of TWRP I never did get around to install the update using the TWRP way.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] Briankbl:
When I open Samsung Pay, I see the usual screens with a blue loading bar at the bottom with the word "Initializing". I can never get past this. The app crashes and has me send a bug report to Samsung. But this isn't the main annoying problem...

Every time I wake my phone up, I get a Samsung Pay notification up top. Every single time. I pull down the notification tray to see "Samsung Pay Initializing".

I can't make it stop! I've deleted data and cache. Rebooting device. Keeps happening. Any suggestions?

Is there any TWRP with WiFi possibilities for the 5X? Or something in like that?

Sorry, TWRP doesn't seem to have WiFi support, and there is no mod/patch to enable it.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Youdoofus:
wifi requires more computing power than TWRP possesses and the implications of adding wifi would be huge thing for TWRP to handle. I mean, what would TWRP even do with wifi access?

[Huawei Watch 2] Crsdr37:
I got my charger in the mail and man I have to say I feel like it is OEM quality. It is like an exact replication of the factory charger and could not be more happy. Really glad they chose black as it matches most my furniture including the watch. Eunice and team did an amazing job. I have a couple of pictures. Been using it the last 3 days and works perfect does not come with charging block so have a backup if this is a secondary charger for the office.

I received mine as well and Eunice was very quick to pay me for the charger. Thank you Eunice!

So far it feels as good as the one provided by Huawei and like others mentioned the black color seem to be better with the color of the watch. I will use for a few more days before providing feedback on amazon.
[Huawei Watch 2] nsm:
I have also recently received this item, which if you are from the UK, you can buy it here :

Huawei Watch 2 charger,Portable Replacement Cradle Charger for Huawei Smart Watch 2(Black) https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0716BDLHF/ref=cm_sw_r_em_apa_bkdszb97TYC6D

As I said, I'm from the UK and received the item very quickly. This is a superbly made product. When compared to the original in terms of build it is very well made. The added bonus is the fact that it is black which complements the watch and as many say looks much better than the white version. There is no difference in terms of charging times, so it really is a no brainer if you need a spare charger (and we all do these days), to go for this product.

If anyone has any questions, let me know.

[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] jmartin72:
The US has very stricked laws about selling anything Refurbished as new. Years ago Packardbell got in huge touble for selling refurbished PC as brand new ones. You can buy refurbished phones off of the Verizon site at a redused price, but they are cleary marked as sush. I'm sure other carriers do the same. I highly doubt that Google is selling refurbished phones and trying to pass them off as new. Even if they were, they wouldn't make it easy to tell, or find out.
