[Sony Xperia XA Questions & Answers] Siam4k:
Sony is awful with support for mid range phones.Check at this we really are the last ones to get it!

[Sony Xperia XA Questions & Answers] KÃ¡sHiF:
I agree with you. My previous experience with Sony is good actually. I had a Flagship though.. (Xperia Z3). Pixel isn't officially available here in UAE. They are available here unofficially but they would cost me around whopping 800-900$! I won't switch to Samsung because I prefer Stock UI and Sony's UI. I thought of switching to Huawei but they aren't good with the Software updates either. (Security patches..). I would switch to Nokia 6 or 5 whenever its available at my place.
[Sony Xperia XA Questions & Answers] KÃ¡sHiF:
I know right.. According to a 'Leaked' Roadmap we were supposed to get nougat in 'Early 2017' and now almost half of the 2017 has passed away.
[Sony Xperia XA Questions & Answers] Siam4k:
Yes it's soo frustrating!! But Coming soon, patient i think all flagships should get Nougat and Sony will realise the update for XA.it's sony policy about their mid range phones.no guat will improve battery performance and camera quality plus software update to make Xperia XA Dual VoLTE compatible on Jio network and etc...
[Sony Xperia XA Questions & Answers] KÃ¡sHiF:
Jio network? What's that? Oh yeah. They will release nougat for XA in 1-5 weeks :
[Sony Xperia XA Questions & Answers] Evedammo:
Agree with you. This is a big disappointment from Sony. I had a Xperia M2 Aqua and the Lollipop update didn't take so long (like 2 months). Also this phone has a lot of bugs (the battery drain, some xposed modules make crash the phone, apps like YouTube sometimes stop working). My next phone will be a Galaxy, Sony's phone quality decreased the last years.
[Sony Xperia XA Questions & Answers] rrvuhpg:
Scamsung mid-range devices are not better and have some problems too. If you compare XA with S7 or S8 you will make me laugh for hours.
[Sony Xperia XA Questions & Answers] aidy.lucas:
Think you'll find the lollipop update for the m2 took almost 6mths to arrive from it being announced(may) to it actually arriving (beginning of October). The Nougat update for the xa is its final update so don't expect it before the device is at least a year on the market it'll probably arrive in the autumn some time
[Sony Xperia XA Questions & Answers] ShinOrochiX:
Annoyingly they'll probably give us 7.0 and not 7.1, all this delay and still not the very latest version. Though only time will tell-my XA is running flawlessly on MM. :)

Lesson Learned!

Last Sony device I purchase! Never seen such terrible support and developers. If I had missed deadlines by several months, I would no longer be working where I currently work. Unacceptable!
[Xiaomi Redmi 3 Questions & Answers] ccmwolf:
Hi All,

I have purchased Redmi Note 3 recently, just after 5 days from its purchase it started auto touching Home button and Options button,

:( after I have gave service center the updated the software and returned me then it worked for 2 days fine and now again it started the same problem. Please check the video from the below link and help me with this.
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) Questions & Answers] The_WABBIT:
Here is the issue. A friend of mine had gone a bought a Galaxy Sky SM-S320VL from TracPhone. And had been using the phone without any problems until a couple of weeks ago. Then he decided to do a Factory Reset. Instead of doing the software reset, from with in Settings, he went and did a HARD Reset without unlocking the google account. And guess what, he can't remember the account information for that phone. And came to me to reset the phone. (As I had to deal with this problem in the past with other people and their phones.)

I have downloaded the only stock rom I can find for this phone and flashed it with Odin3. But for some reason the flashing of the rom is never done. By this I mean, the phone downloads the rom as Odin sends it. Odin reports a Success with the flashing. But, when the phone reboots. The system has not been reset and FRP is still active.

I have flashed only the AP, and the phone reboots directly into setup and shows a message about an unauthorized Factory Reset.

I have flash all 4 files in the ROM set (BL, AP, CP, and CSC). and Odin states the flash was a success. The phone reboots, goes to recovery and states Starting System Update. Goes so far into the update, then stops and shows Erasing. After a short time of showing Erasing it reboots to setup. Where again the phone shows the message about authorized Factory Reset.

I have used Odin3 v3.9.0, v3.11.1, v3.11.2, v3.12.5. And I have updated to the latest USB drivers from Samsung.

So my question is this. Has anyone had come across this behavior before? And how can I get past this?

The phones particulars:

Name: Samsung Galaxy Sky

Model #: SM-S320VL(GP)

OS v: 6.0.1

Firmware #: S320VLUDU2APJ3

Model #, as reported by Downloader: SM-S320VL

Note: As a strange side effect of when I flash all 4 rom files. For some reason once the phone has failed the system update, erased and has reboot. I have complete access to the phones User data area from within my computer. But, I am unable to access the phone with adb.
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) Questions & Answers] drasnah:
Hey folks,

I'm having the exact same issue as the OP. Odin does a successful install on the phone but I get the unauthorized reset message and then Wifi does not work when prompted on the next screen.

Is there a tracfone version of the rom or a fix that anyone here knows of? Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) Questions & Answers] The_WABBIT:
[MENTION=8320849]drasnah[/MENTION]

I have yet to get any kind of reply from anyone on this. Either now one knows, and is not stating so, or doesn't care. :( :( :(
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) Questions & Answers] 20eyes:
I have seen the wi- fi fix in another thread.

Modify /system/build.prop:

ro.securestorage.support=true to false

Hope that helps!
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) Questions & Answers] The_WABBIT:
First this is not a wi-fi problem it is a re-flashing of the rom problem.

Second, I do not have access, root or otherwise, to any of the system files on the phone.

Third, with the first two in mind this possible solution is of no help.

Fourth, Re-read my original post. I have given complete detailed information as to what I have access to and what I have done.

Can someone send me a download think for this phone i downloaded one but it won't flash it keeps failing
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) Questions & Answers] Curtis1973:
This device has been locked down by Tradphone and Samsung. It gives errors flashing even the correct stock firmware. It's a piece of garbage. NEVER buy anything from Tracphone. Garbage company. You'll never fix this issue. Only pushed updates will flash via software from sammy and tracphone that is built into the rom..
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) Questions & Answers] ashyx:
Not sure if that's correct? It depends on the firmware and odin version being used.

---------- Post added at 10:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:58 PM ----------

Need to know if works. Or if needing to settle for a different route.

J3 sm s320vl... tracfone root availability? Just bought phone hopefully got a good one to root? Or maybe someone knows who maybe be able to... please help
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) Questions & Answers] Andy4Me2:
No updates? Interested, I have the same phone.
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) Questions & Answers] tsongming:
There is no solution for this phone. It will forever be a Trac-phone.

Yes, it nice to imagine what could had been. If there was a fix for the locked bootloader. Its encrypted, and is highly unlikely to be broken by anyone.

Do not flash the boot.image that some people have suggested

Although that method works on some devices such as the AT&T Samsung Galaxy S5. In this case flashing the boot.image from an unlocked device does nothing but places the phone into an even more precarious situation, that makes it unusable even as a Trac phone.

While its true that this very low budget phone could had been decent with a custom Rom ,

You will not be able to get it working.

I have one that belonged to my daughter a couple of years ago and I managed to get it boot into the system again.

Its only function is as a calculator, or preschool game, the cellular reception and Wifi connections are highly unstable and will not stay connected.

Now it serves as my nieces play toy. I would donate to some poor person at the Salvation Army it if it was useable.

By the way, for anyone reading this.

If you have an old phone that is useable. You could dramatically help a Homeless people, by gifting them with a phone especially, if it has some minutes on it.

This gift will help them schedule job interviews, doctors appointments , etc and you will feel good knowing that you helped someone in need.

I have done this before, and will be dropping off a Blu phone, and Kindle Tablet this week.
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) Questions & Answers] ashyx:
It is possible to gain root on this device.
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) Questions & Answers] tsongming:
I have permissible SE Status but can not achieve root on this device. Also, I have not found that anyone has had success rooting this exact model.

To be clear my device is the 2016 TracFone Samsung Galaxy J3 Sky model : SM-S320VL

Build S320VUDU1APG2

Hardware Version S320 VL04

I have found reports of people with S320VLUDU2API3 stating that the were able to achieve root and then assumed that it must also be possible with S320VUDU1APG2.

I am usually the guy that can figure these things out, very often before others. But I have had no success gaining root on this device using published methods. Also, I have not seen one example of someone with this identical device who gained root.

You are apparently the Wizard of these Samsung phones, so if you know of a definite way to root it, please point me towards the solution. I would really appreciate it.

I would love to root this phone, get it working again, and gift it to lady who was beaten by her husband and she is now living in a homeless shelter with her two children. She could use a phone to help with her job search. She would appreciate it.

At the moment this phone can will not keep a signal and I can't attempt the build prop solution without root.

Thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) Questions & Answers] ashyx:
See the thread below. Root was gained, albeit temporary. However I believe this is due to kernel panics which may be solved by a few build.prop edits. We had to do the same on the J327T1.

https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-j3-2016/help/samsung-galaxy-j3-sm-s320vl-rooted-t3561762

Also if you firmware S320VUDU1APG2 then why not just update it to the firmware that has been reported to work?
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) Questions & Answers] jacknab:
I have found one these phones left on a table of a food truck area, screen was cracked - the device was only getting the android guy with triangle on it, I done some research and found the stock rom and flashed it with odin; as some have mentioned in comments above I also experienced wifi issue, so I thought I had installed incorrect rom - downloaded a different one this was a combination file that was the factory repair rom used for testing the device, but wifi worked - it wasn't a fully working telephone it didnt have the app store, well it really didnt have any apps, but I found I could copy over apk files from my PC to the device and then install them, so the phones not completely useless or junk --- it could be used for something. I myself am using that device as a security camera using IP CAM app works great. I was actually using this device for quiet some time as my roku tv remote, because my actual roku remote grown legs and walked off... i havent tried this, but I am sure you could install a launcher apk such as "apex launcher"

well i wasted enough of your time today...

I don`t need to contact my vendor or supplier. I just need oppinion from other users. How does it look like when you plug charging cable to the usb port.

Is it stick super tight or swinging slightly up and down. Maybe it is normal. Both of my unit have the same issue.

[LG G6 Questions and Answers] qash20888:
I just recently got a G6. I love it. Its amazing. A thing I noticed is that when I am scrolling (not even long pages. I recently experienced this with Google Images and not so many images had been loaded), I experience hiccups/stutters on Google Chrome. I tried Firefox. Same issue. Is anybody else experiencing this? I also Force Rendered GPU and reduced the animations to 0.5 but didn't work.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Ali Mirza:
Force GPU Rendering should have helped this scrolling issue, I think you should block ads that were also responsible for the hiccups.

Also if your phone is rooted, install L Speed, Entropy , or fstrim apps found on Play Store , they make lower specced phones be smooth specially slow Samsungs. LG G6 is powerful enough due to SD 821 therefore just like the Google Pixel or the One Plus 3T , these also have smooth performance and fast too.

Its really the ads and flash content!

[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] migueldbr:
Is this app yours? If it is, I have a suggestion. On pear chronograph, instead of having the seconds pointer fixed on 0, make it an option to have smooth seconds.

Also, another very important option, dim the ambient mode after some time of inactivity (like the A/D watchface has). Or at least being able to set a lower brightness on ambient mode.
[Huawei P10 Questions & Answers] 3xx3r:
I like feature to get my phone in silent mode when in the meeting, which is automated in P10! But...

...I have a version of VTR-L09C432B113 and I'm facing a problem with calendar app. After few days of use, I believe my calendar DB get corrupted somehow as it works fine until then. I did clear cache and deleted account corporate calendar associated to it which did fix the problem (Google calendar events worked fine!). However, I face similar problem just after two days later (Now both google and corporate calendars are not visible anymore), plus app gets crashing. I also have a google calendar sync activated to the google account and I have read that other Huawei phones have had a different kind of problems with it. I also tried to install google calendar after 2nd-time problem occurred as a tryout and it seems that google app get crashing as well => which leads my assumption that problem is in the object where calendar events are stored or so.

Questions:

1) Could I just delete this calendar object (common for both apps?) which has meeting/event info in w/out re-creating account every 2 days&Clearing data? If yes, where it´s located and how could I do it?

2) is this known issue in Huawei P10 or other new models?

3) Do you know if "automatic silence"- feature in phone work with google calendar?

Thanks for info!
