[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] twisticles:
I just got my S8+ today and experienced the same issue. I added my Outlook.com as Exchange Active Sync account to get calendar and contacts synced on the phone too.

This results in the "action required to sync email" message in your inbox, which encourages you to download the Outlook app. If you read the email closely, towards the end is a link to click if you don't want to use the Outlook app. Click on that link and it will take you to a page where the Outlook team acknowledges that you don't want to use the app, and your email/calendar/contacts will sync with the Samsung apps quite happily.

It is insane to go thru these hoops to get full syncing...if you go thru the Outlook app, the sync is only one way too. I wouldn't mind if the Outlook app for Android was as graceful as the iOS version...
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] jeffwhooper:
As you say - it's insane how difficult this stuff is. I thought it was bad enough when I set EAS syncing on an HTC 10 but this is even more convoluted. Why, if you set up an EAS account and select Contact and Calendar syncing, does it not just happen and allow syncing with any Contact or Calendar app! To hide the steps to enable it to an Email that isn't easily discoverable and has nothing to do with EAS is "bonkers" .
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] KLyanne:
THANK YOU!!!!

I saw the link on the bottom you referred to, but my technology-illiterate self ignored it because I didn't think it would apply to what I was trying to do. But, lo and behold, I clicked on it, restarted my phone, and poof - there was all the email that previously wouldn't sync.

Thank you SO MUCH and Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to you!!
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] C2500:
I recently bought a lg g3 from eBay and have had nothing but trouble out of it since I bought it. First two weeks I spent trying to get it out of an endless boot loop to find it only needed a new battery. With the new battery I discovered another issue. The power button will turn the phone on (for now). But it will not sleep/wake the screen or turn the phone off. I thought I would seek help before I take a hammer to it.

Anyone know if there is a plugin created that will be able to toggle AOD? I want more control over when AOD runs than just a certain timeframe.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Sevael:
Secure Settings does this and works well. I use it to turn AOD off when I'm wireless charging and turn it back on when I take the phone off the charger.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] eqjunkie829:
What setting is it? I've used this app before but it's been quite awhile.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Sevael:
Create a new task, choose Plugins, then Secure Settings. Tap the pencil icon and choose Actions, then Device Settings. Set Setting to "aod_mode". It's about half way down the list.

Set it to 1 for on and 0 for off.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] eqjunkie829:
Thanks a bunch. This will help me to utilize this feature of the phone when I actually want it on.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] the_scotsman:
Yea, I used this on my S7E, and use it on my S8+. I use it to turn off AOD when I go to bed and plug in my charger. Triggered by AC source + Airplane mode (which I put my phone into every night when I go to bed).

I also turn off the charging LED as it's a bright little bugger too! You can do that using this app/Tasker plugin: https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=70045373#post70045373
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Cyclops1055:
I've tried setting it up in Tasker with Secure settings and it just doesn't turn on AOD.

Does it make a difference if my S8+ is the Snapdragon version?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Sevael:
No, it doesn't. I am also using the Snapdragon version.

It works fine for me so I don't know what the problem might be. Have you tried manually running the task to turn it on and then locking your phone to see if the AOD comes on? If so, then the issue is with the profile and not the task.

If you can't get the task itself working, then something is wrong with the setup. Make sure both Tasker and Secure Settings are set as Device Administrators.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Cyclops1055:
They are both at Device Administrators, here are screenshots of the profile and AOD and AOD Off task settings. Not sure how to manually run the task, I'm new to tasker

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Sevael:
In Tasker, go to the Tasks tab, tap on the AOD On task you created, then tap the play button in the bottom left corner of the screen. That will initiate the task itself.

Do this with your AOD on and off tasks to see if they are working individually.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Cyclops1055:
So I just tried what you said, this is what I did:

Went to the Task tab, tapped on AOD, tapped on play at the bottom of the screen (a green dot appeared), I then turned off the screen and AOD didn't turn on.

In the Samsung settings, I'm assuming that AOD should be off?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] 2007jchill:
Hey Guys,

Can someone tell me what the right path is to create a shortcut to slide open the edge screen using tasker or secure settings. I know how to create a shortcut but cannot find the app to open it.

Thanks in advance
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Sevael:
The Tasker/Secure Settings task will change the toggle in the phone's settings menu if it works properly.

I'm not sure what else could be preventing yours from working.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Cyclops1055:
I have no clue either, things are never easy
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Cyclops1055:
Ok so I gave it another shot, I deleted everything, rebooted my phone, setup Tasker again and now it's working.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Sevael:
Nice! Glad to hear it's working.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] dalanik:
Does this (AOD in Secure Settings) need root ?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] the_scotsman:
Nope.

Cool, just what I wanted - to turn off AOD during night :) Thanx!
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] DirkStorck:
Tried it with macro droid where you can run tasker addons too.... But the AOD doesn't get turned on or off....other system settings like preventing private messages on lockscreen under certain conditions worked.
[Huawei P10 Plus Questions & Answers] cdl2:
I understand the dual-sim version is the L29, and it's not sold in Europe, but can be bought on ebay.

Does anyone know if this is compatible with wi-fi calling on the EE network in the UK? EE says the P10 plus is, even if not bought directly from them, but it's not clear if this applies to the dual sim version, too.

For example, the single-sim galaxy S7 works with wi-fi calling even when not bought through EE; the dual sim doesn't, but there are reports of people who got it to work by flashing a different firmware.

Thanks!

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] as.hs:
i have been trying to install a good rom on my s5. i know that since i have an 11' toshiba chip, i cant do any major custom roms only stock touchwiz roms. i have 3 or 4 that i have found that actually work on my phone and when i tried a new rom today, it didn't work. so i flashed 4.4.2 again to start from scratch and i went back to my usual stock deodexed rom that is always a for sure rom that works. today when i flashed it, twrp (safestrap) prompts me to either boot normally or to continue. i have had this problem in the past, and whenever it shows that screen, it will never boot up, after the prompt it will just have a black screen for about 5 min. before booting stock recovery. if i boot it up again, safestrap will still prompt me if i want to boot recovery or continue and keep repeating this cycle. last time, it had resolved itself and didnt show up after wiping and reflashing my rom. this time it wont go away and my phone wont boot anything. thanks in advance

[General Questions and Answers] Mog-Pharau:
Hi

I have searched for solution everywhere but didn't find any. The problem seems to be very rare since few people asked about it

I have an old keyboard kindle which i haven't used for a long time. It's Screen is completely blank.

When i plug in the charger (i've tried different ones) orange light lights up (as it should) but after 10 seconds it goes off. Kindle says nothing what this is supposed to mean.

Here's what i tried so far:

Leaving on charger for a few hours even though led light was off.

Resetting (nothing happens)

Taking off battery and testing with multimeter (it seems to hold at least some charge as it showed 4V)

Testing battery socket (it also showed 4V so no problem there i guess)

When i put battery back, green led lights up for 5 seconds but after that everything is same as it was before.

I am pretty much out of ideas at this point. You guys are my last hope

[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] rorydaredkign:
I just sold my athena, and got a touch enhanced. Same rom and ram, 1/3rd processor speed and no 3g are the main differences to me.

But, I was wondering, who would swap their athena for a kaiser or touch cruise if those devices had vga, making them basically the same specs as the athena.

Edit:

It seems that people wouldnt want a vga screen on a device with a small width in inches. I think this is really funny, because all people did when both the kaiser's and Touch Cruise's specs were finalised, was say how if only it was vga. But now I thnk about it, with realvga on my athena [96dpi], it was basically 4 hermes screens glues together, in terms of size and res. So, the text was about the same size on today as ti was n my hermes. But imagine real vga on a 2.8 screen, it would be like having 4 3cm by 2 cm screens glued together. Tiny writing. So i think you're right about the vga.

Rory
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] mcwtrekkie:
I would, but I can't stress enough how much I love the VGA screen. I have a TyTN as well and although the screen size is smaller, I can't stand the QVGA resolution :@
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] leoni1980:
i imagine most would. I don't know why htc are so slow on the uptake with vga displays, they're hardly new technology. 800 by 480 would be better though
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] c0mput0r:
I would not swap my athena for anything but a higher spec upgrade. I would like something with the same size screen but true native vga resolution or above with more cpu and a gpu that can be used. For me the size is no problem and i love the keyboard. People stare at my athena all the time and i think it is funny. The only person that has commented negatively was the typical iphone user. :D But i shut him up when i told him my device specs :cool: My favorite thing to tell iphone users is can your phone do "copy and paste" then i just laugh at them. It seems that they might be fixing that in the next firmware release though. Anyway the athena is my first step into pda phones and i don't think i would be able to use anything else.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] HeartOfDarkness:
Dido.

It is to note that I had a TyTN before the Athena, that had been given to me as a replacement for a Universal. And:

- that was the worst replacement I got ever. To me, screen was too small and low-res --> no usable Internet or word processing, however basic --> no need for the integrated keyboard, however good it may have been + no need for Wifi --> too thick and big, as well as too expensive for its practical use;

- the universal screen is 3,5" and VGA, and even if I am lucky to have excellent eyesight, I found it the bottom limit for readability.

So.... I'm not entirely sure one can really make full use of a VGA+ screen if it is not at the very least 4", and again, *at the very least*.

IMHO, of course.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] mackaby007:
Hell...I did it!!

What can I say....did I go off the Athena? Never, but my needs changed and I needed to be able to use my all-in-one device as a normal phone, without running into trouble when I forgot to charge my BT headset.

...So I ditched and got the Kaiser. Love the Kaiser even with its hardware driver issues, but I miss that large VGA display.:( There is nothing like it.

Having said that, that's all I miss.:) This thing is pocket friendly and with the exception of TV-Out (which I never really use) and the VGA screen, the Kaiser does it all.

Each to their own I guess. But I'll never have a bad word to say about the Athena....she'll always be my baby, lol. She's just too darn big to take out in public. ROFL.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] rorydaredkign:
Yeah i ditched too, after only 3 weeks, ive moved on to the tiny touch 256. I love my athena, and i dont want to send it off to its new home in italy, but i dont need it, and my mum's quite happy that i made 130 quid today. I think i will miss the massive screen, its area is about 3 times the touch's.

But i dont drive, so sont need gps, dont use tv out, and the touch at only 201 mhz wont make use of the hsdpa, and at school on both tytn and athena, i usually get 3g max, hardly ever hsdpa.

But theres my reasons for switching.

Oh yer, and because it couldnt make calls [check my sig]

[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] eaglesteve:
No, I won't settle for a screen less than 4.5 inch big. realvga is useless for a 3.5 inch vga screen even at 128dpi.

I also hate having the integrated hardware keyboard. I'm a tablet person, loving Tengo very much.

I don't find Athen any less portable than say a Universal. I carry it without keyboard on my belt pouch, covered by my shirt so you don't even know or see me carry it.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] Robson:
well, before my athena i was using a mio a701 for like a year. it was quite a change because prior to that i was using an xda2i...which had a bigger screen. and switching over to the mio took some getting used to.

but now that i have a 5 inch screen it's so difficult to even think of switching back to a device with a smaller screen. i already upgraded the rom to ak 3.0 and it's the best ever. besides, the large screen is a good pacifier for my 3 year old when she want's to watch toons =)

cheers
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] Martincyborg@gmail.com:
why choose? I have both a touch, a tytn II and an Athena. My girlfriend uses the touch.. I use the Athena with a style-I in the car, as a gps, movie player or wherever i need to do work which involves browsing, excel and typing up large text bodies. Using style-i and Microsoft voice command I rarely take it out in public to make a call. The Athena is my best phone ever! The tytn II is a great side kick. Awesome keyboard for fast smses, putting in pim, even though the camera sucks, I still use it sometimes just to make a quick shot (hardly ever use the Athena camera as the quality just doesnt weigh up for the size) I even use the world card reader occasionally. Must say that I don't like browsing with the Tytn II, but it's still handy to have the chance to check some info etc in case my Athena is not close by.

in case of the Polaris, or an old universal for that matter, a 3,5 inch VGA screen is not big enough for my needs, (don't even think I would like a 4" screen) so if I had to choose, hypothetically speaking, I would still go for Athena
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] techntrek:
The large screen and internet anywhere (especially at 3G speeds) were the biggest reasons I bought it, so no, I wouldn't go back to a smaller screen even if most of the other specs on the other phone were better.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] LTxda:
I have an Athena and love it. I also have a Kaiser (2), Universal, Hermes, Wizard and a couple of other phones. I could/would never switch. The Kaiser is not that impressive. Plus performance on the Kaiser sucks until the driver issue is resolved, etc. Kaisers are also dying left and right so reliability is not up to par. I was a little upset with my Athena due to a MicroDrive hardware issue but after hooking it up to my laptop using WMStorage and formatting the MD with Windows XP and running defrag/scandisk on it, I have not had any issues with it. Let's just see how long I have before experiencing another problem..if it ever happens again.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] Martincyborg@gmail.com:

Not sure what you're trying to tell everyone but ok. Take care.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] Martincyborg@gmail.com:

[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] LTxda:
Gotcha. Crystal clear.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] eaglesteve:
absolutely a good point. Smaller devices with with equivalent specification but smaller vga screen already exist. If there are so many voting yes but don't actually do it in action, something doesn't make sense.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] athenalover:

The big screen is THE reason.

My previous phones does not let me see enough. The only problem I have is the keyboard. It's too small, even if I chose the big key option. Is there a way to make the keyboard standard size?

[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] pstgh:
I have a Pixel (from Google) running on the Verizon network, and I've enabled wifi calling, which works great..

My friend recently purchased (also from Google) a Pixel XL and he is running it on At&t. He has a need to enable wifi calling also, but isn't seeing it as an option in the XL's settings (even though we both have the same Nougat version [7.1.2], though slightly different builds).

Can anyone first please update me as to whether At&t is supporting wifi calling on a Pixel XL ?

Also, since the phone was purchased directly from Google, why would the wifi calling option not be in the settings? If it were purchased from At&t and they do not (yet) support wifi calling on this phone, I could see why they would hide that feature in the settings, but it's a Google phone ready, willing, and able to be run on any network...!?

Please help educate me on this issue!

Thanks.

At&t is not supporting it on their network. Being that you have a Google version, put a Verizon or TMobile Sim in and Volte with wifi calling will work.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] deepasadish:
I am currently on A2017U B29 Marshmallow 6.0.1 full Stock. I did not upgrade so far to Nougat, in fear of ZTE locking the bootloader, etc.

In future, I want to fully unlock the bootloader, install TWRP, and load Lineage OS.

If I upgrade my phone to the latest Stock Nougat, will I still be able to do the move to lineage - did ZTE mess up the bootloader any way in Nougat?

From what I read here, it is safe to do so and that I can always unlock the bootloader no matter what - but I need a quick confirmation.

Hi folks - just had a response from Huawei UK regarding repair of my pretty much new, W1 watch. It goes like this:

Good afternoon,

Thank you for your email, sorry for delayed response.

Unfortunately we do not repair the cracked displays as we only replace faulty watches, if the device has a sign of physical damages that's voids the warranty and we are not able to exchange it.

​​Kind regards

Customer services

SBE LTD UK

So, because it's not faulty, they cannot repair the watch. It seems if their is a fault they will swap out but if it gets damaged, they do not offer a repair service. Disappointing is an understatement.
[Huawei Watch] btblue:
Just spoke to them and... if a watch gets damaged, they will not repair it. If under warranty they do not repair it - just simply replace it if it is a manufacturers fault. Under no certain terms do they repair broken watches. Damage voids the warranty and therefore any chances of getting it fixed.
[Huawei Watch] Johan1976:
Are you surprised? Isnt that standard behaviour? Something you break yourself (even by accident) is your own fault and not coveted by warranty.

Skickat från min SM-G950F via Tapatalk
[Huawei Watch] btblue:
Yes BUT I want to pay for it to be repaired. They have said they don't repair watches if damaged. So, if you accidentally damage your watch, you cannot get it repaired. You have to buy a new one. My point is it seems crazy to buy a new watch just because the screen cracked. That is, in essence what Huawei have told me.
[Huawei Watch] Johan1976:
Oh. Sorry misunderstood you. That was strange. Guess the cost for repair would be too high compared to buying a new one.

[Huawei Watch] e_rene:
So, there seems to be no option to replace the screen, right? I've been using my Huawei Watch for more than 2 years now. It still looks pretty nice but nowadays it has very noticeable burn in marks. Weeks ago I tried to use an app to "fix" the burn in but it made things worse. The app was basically displaying bright random colors for a few hours and that caused the LEDs to age even more. Replacing the screen would be perfect since everything else still works fine.
