[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Bisquit-02:
1 MicroSD card for your music and pictures.

2 Google drive for your contact list.

3 also make a backup from contact list to MicroSD card.

4 your Google account

Google Playstore Will have all your apps listed for easy reinstall. Alternatively you can backup to smartswitch on PC.

But restoring from that most likely brings back the issue that forces you to factory reset, or brings you back in your current state.

If the reason is because of flashing different firmware then don't use smartswitch.

to anybody who's reading this the app that is Linked in the post above mine is the wondershare MobileGo app from Tunes bro. it is a paid app with a free trial period. and the member who posted this said it does a full Android backup. what he fails to mention is that the full backup with apps including data is a feature that is only available if you are rooted. so if you are not rooted and looking for a complete full backup solution including the data and settings of your apps then this app is not for you.

Still waiting for either Updato or SamMobile to release the new update so I can flash it thru Odin. I'm using At&t carrier on a Verizon S7 phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] PGHammer:
I got the update via OTA yesterday (no network at all - running SIMless at current). I'm also using a (former) VZW) phone with VZW firmware from updato.com. So you don't need network connectivity to get the update - wi-fi will, in fact, do.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] goojman:
OTA updates don't work on my Verizon S7 because At&t is my carrier. Even with wifi on. FYI
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] PGHammer:
That is the part that makes no sense. As I stated, my S7 has no carrier at all. I updated to VZW's V-firmware last week, but got the update Monday (same S7) via Software Update and the only way I COULD get it - wi-fi, not carrier. How can AT&T block updates via wi-fi? (Or are you lacking wi-fi where you are?)

Hello guys,

I'm thinking of buying the Moto G5 and I would love to know the pro's and cons with experience. I'm in England and think that it's cheap but don't know where or if I should get it ?
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] TheFixItMan:
Iv got it in UK - no problems with it for me - its just as good as a phone double the price if you know how to flash lineageos on it
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] GuestK0015:
Cheers
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] TheFixItMan:
Just make sure you buy the retail version and not the Amazon version as the Amazon versions you can't unlock bootloader as they don't want you removing their ads

So buy the sim free version from argos or carphone warehouse
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] GuestK0015:
Even when on Amazon it says the phone doesn't?
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] TheFixItMan:
Amazon have their own version of Motorola phones - they are normally slightly cheaper as they are ad supported but Motorola will not let you unlock the bootloader of the Amazon version of Motorola phones

Bootloader needs to be unlocked for rooting and flashing custom roms hence why I say buy the sim free retail version from argos or carphone warehouse

I have a MotoG 5 i bought in UK from Amazon £179.95 Mar with 3GB Ram far better

if you buy a Amazon you

CAN

unlock booteloader & put a custom rom of your choice

i have AIM ROM bascillay Lineage Rom fantastic make sure you get the 3GB Ram it runs better

they are on Amazon now in uk for £164.99 MOTO G 5 is unbeatable for that price,

Argos & Carphone W only have 2GB ram it does make difference in performance (less)
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] rophaq:
Carphone warehouse , the cheapest £160 including £10 payg easy to unlock the bootloader.
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] TheFixItMan:
you may of bought if off amazon but I bet its not the amazon version

Amazon versions do not allow their boot loaders to be unlocked

you most likely bought an unlocked retail version from amazon (which they also sell)

Dual sim versions as far as I know are not in retail stores in the uk but im sure you could find them on the amazon market place

Again amazon sell retail versions as well as amazon versions - make sure you read the description because if you buy an amazon version you will find it very hard or impossible to unlock the bootloader
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] RonJeremyClarkson:
You are mistaken, only the US Amazon sells the Amazon Prime exclusive phones! Amazon.co.uk only has the retail version. Bootloader is unlockable, no lockscreen ads.

EDIT: even your own image only mentions the Moto G5 Plus. Not a word about the regular Moto G5 not being unlockable.
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] durbancurry:
only 2gb ram pay another £5 get amazon deal, with 3gb £164.95 its not like you buy a phone month so whats £5 over 2 years . the bootloader is not an issue on any phone from anywhere,

[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] trotter2000:
I unlocked mine. Best thing about buying from amazon is there customer service is over the top. So if you brick it you could return it with out them checking the unit. Same as there own stuff ;)
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] RonJeremyClarkson:
I don't see how that's relevant. An Amazon version of the regular Moto G5 simply doesn't exist. Only the US Amazon has Amazon Prime Exclusive phones and even then it's only the G5 Plus

https://www.amazon.com/Prime-Exclusive-Phones/b?ie=UTF8&node=14613304011

Well there's nothing to argue, you simply were wrong with this one.
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] trotter2000:
Just to help put this one to bed, RonJeremyClarkson is right. Mine was "Dispatched from and sold by Amazon.

" and I unlocked it without any hoops. I used Motorola website to unlock it.

The Lenovo branded one is the "Exclusive to Amazon" one.
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] durbancurry:
What is so difficult in this I bought a Moto G 5 from Amazon themselves in the uk

dual sim + 3Gb of Ram

I unlocked the boot loader no Problem

i put on Custom Rom & Rooted no problem

so whats all the hoo ha.

also its IS CHEAPER THAN CarPhone at £164 with 3GB ram not the cheaper model CarPhone sell + £10 top up

very very simple arithmetic

unless someone has a vested interested in CarPhone Warehouse
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] Kneidel:
I just bought the same phone from Amazon. Would you mind telling me how to check if the bootloader is unlocked, how to do this if necessary, and what ROM you flashed? Thanks.
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] TheFixItMan:
It will be locked by default

To unlock goto

https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/unlock-your-device-a
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] durbancurry:
No need to check it will be locked, cant remember all the steps, it is pretty easy, follow the guides

you get the unlock code from Motorola directly and once unlocked you can do what you want,

ie put the custom recovery on then a ROM of your choice & root

I have AIM Rom excellent, but be aware it comes with no keyboard , I think the other roms have a keyboard, but not certain
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Kujo:
hey guys....a nice little noob here.

So ive recently began reading up on upgrading my wizard to a nice wm6 rom. im interested in a stable touch rom, ive narrowed it down to a couple (mostly TNT, OCTAIVOI and NBD). ive read a couple of posts mentioning a specific rom using a specific radio, to insure stablitity. I want the bling in my phone but with most stability i can get. So overall this confused me a little bit. i ran a search and couldnt find anything.

the question is: im assuming when you flash a rom, theres a radio included in it. but when people use a specific radio, how is that done. Do they flash the radio after the rom or vice versa?

heres an example. i looked at the TNT.1933, it is mentioned that 2.19.11 UK is the most stable. is that radio included in the rom or is it a recommendation? if its not included how do you flash it?

Thanks for all the help !!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] th_undead:
hello :)

Hello :) welcome to the forums. Not all roms have a radio included. if you see in a rom thread that is "G4 safe" that means that it is only the OS. You can flash the radio whenever you want. i would suggest using the 2.19 radio. or the newest one 2.71 i think it is. i am currently running it with no problems.

reffering to what rom to put, i say try all of them until you stop at one that you like.

BUT FIRST, MAKE SURE YOUR DEVICE IS CID UNLOCKED! otherwise, you won't be able to flash anything onto it.

Hope that helped.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Kujo:
Thank you so much for the advice TH. Very kind of you.

I was looking for an answer to that on the forum, but all i found was the actual radios to download. I dont really mind experimenting with my phone, and i plan on doing exactly what u recommended by trying them all out. I also have a prophet which i feel like updating because i dont have a keyboard on it, so it makes more sense to try a touch rom on it.

I unlocked my wizard, its a G3 it was very easy, so no issues there.

so I would flash a rom i like, and then flash the radio? if i flash another rom, do i lose the radio or does it stay on the phone?

thanks again
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] bachikho:
or you can try radio 2.40.11 (this is the radio from the official rom OS 5.2.318 build 15342 of MS):

thanks ! will do
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] hayduke:
Well that's sorta a tough question. Technically no. I think you mean if you flash for example TNT's ROM then you flash NBD's ROM. Then no, your radio would remain unchanged.

BUT... You should flash back to a stock ROM in between, and that WILL wipe your radio. What I do is flash to stock 8125 Cingular ROM from HTC's website. Then I flash the 3.08 IPL/SPL (only do this for G3 phones!!). Then I flash the OS ROM such as TNT or something. The last step is flashing a radio. I too have been using 2.71 lately. Seems to work well. My issues are more OS related lately as I have been learning to cook and always have one issue or another on my phone :P
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Kujo:
cool. i'll look for 2.71, i have 2.19 right now.

i see ure using fido. Glad to see other canadians having fun with these.

im kind of annoyed though, just when i make up my mind on the rom i want, i cant find it. The NBD ftp seems to be down. my next step was the tnt i guess, any thoughts?

i basically want a nice rom, with touch and a decent amount of stability, of course with touch ive read that stability is usually an issue, but im sure there has to be one more stable then the other.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] shikotee:
Have you been trying any of the different radios? I'm in the same boat as you - Fido user (Toronto), wondering which radio version would work best. If there are any other Fido Wizard users out here, would love to hear some feed-back!

Only issue i have with nbd is the fact that now everytime i send out an sms i get an sms in return saying the message was sent. im actually browsing the pages right now looking for a fix to that.

anyone have a solution?

Markdam - Was this thread called "Secret Location of IPL/SPL 3.08"?

Two posts within 24 hours - talk about wanting instant gratification!

Yesterday evening, I flashed my Radio to 2.69.11

Reception seems possibly worse, but hard to gauge if this is due to the new radio, or the inconsistent signal strength that I seem to get in my bedroom. I'm also in the process of trying out various new apps, and it seems that something that I installed today is slurping my battery faster than before....

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] Khst74:
Hello,

I have a Redmi Note 4 SD MIDO, since the 8.2.10.0 update, I had several problems (battery, usb).

Firstly, I was unable to charge my phone, it makes a connecting/disconnecting loop, making the charge very slow (video: streamable[.]com/4k23i).

I managed to fully charge it, caliber it and fully discharge it, the charge worked like it used to. It happened to other people, it's really weird.

Now, I'm able to charge it but if I connect it to my computer, it makes this connecting/disconnecting loop again! (On Android, TWRP, adb). If I start my phone in fastboot mode, it doesn't disconnect, I type "fastboot devices" and it works. With TWRP using ADB, "adb devices" loose it in loop.

I think it's a software issue, but I'm not sure, I don't know if it comes from the update because it doesn't work well with TWRP.

Does anybody had this kind of issue? I would like to avoid to send it to the service center, I live in Europe and it's in China.

Thank you!

Hi all,

I can imagine this is a general Android feature but since I use the OP5 I thought of asking here.

I noticed while using f.e. WhatsApp voice calls (over WiFi) that they drop when a network call is incoming.

Is there a way (rooted or not) to change that priority and keep the VoIP call alive and just show that someone is calling you normally ?

Thank you in advance

apologies for not responding with a fix for you - but there's definitely some issue with the latest build of oxygen OS and voip - in addition to call drops there are problems with voice/SIP/RTP itself. This is not just limited to whatsapp - but also Tango and skype.

Only real way to isolate the issue seems to be to reflash to older stock ROM and see if the problem persists. But is it worth it?
