[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] jws86:
Is there a guide to Root with Magisk somewhere floating around?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] sakumaxp:
I believe it's the same as when you flash supersu, don't quote me on that
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] jws86:
Yeah I found the guide. It seems I need to flash stock image first before. So Magisk gives you the ability to root first, then download apps such as snapchat and still login if you use magisk hide?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] sakumaxp:
Correct, downloading isn't a problem, but it'll just prevent you from logging in since supersu, trips safetynet
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] jws86:
I read through this thread: https://xdaforums.com/pixel-xl/how-to/guide-stock-7-1-2-root-safetynet-ok-t3617347

Seems pretty straightforward, however currently I have a ROM installed I'm really liking. To do this I would have to flash back to stock image, then go through the root process. My question would be after rooting, if I went to flash Screw'd again, doesn't it wipe everything and I would lose root again, then just have to flash it after the ROM?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] sakumaxp:
Myself I've never been on screwd before, I would assume so, but in my experience the pixel XL is more complicated than my previous phones
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] jhs39:
If you just want root you shouldn't need to flash the stock image again. You would need to do that if you wanted to flash a custom kernel but not for root. You need to download the modified version of Magisk for the Pixel XL. The official version doesn't work on the Pixels. I'm not currently rooted as I went back to stock but I was using Magisk. At that time the latest version wasn't stable but it might be fixed now. You need to boot into fastboot TWRP, flash the Magisk zip, flash the TWRP zip and then boot up. After you are booted up you install the Magisk Manager app. The tricky thing is installing the right version of Magisk Manager that works properly with the unofficial build of Magisk that you are using. You can get more information in the Resurrection Remix rom thread which for some reason is the official place where the modified version of Magisk is hosted if you can't find good info about which combination of unofficial Magisk and Magisk Manager you should be using. Also when I used Magisk you needed to enable core only mode for it to pass Safety Net but that may no longer be the case. You should be able to find the most up to date info either in the thread you cited or the RR rom thread. Just remember that official builds of Magisk do not work on the Pixel. You need to stick with one of the unofficial builds.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] jws86:
I think I got which versions of magisk and magisk manager I need to use from the other thread I had posted earlier. This helps to clear some things up for me though. I have both the .apk and the zip on my phone now. Getting a bit of a charge and I guess I'll go ahead and try it.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] jws86:
It worked, I'm officially rooted .Thanks for the help!

[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Qkeez:
I just recieved my LG G5 H850 and it doesn't charge. After plugging it in to the charger that it came with battery with 0% on it shows up, then changes into a battery with loading circle, eventually it shows battery with question mark and red stripe on it and next to that - battery with LG logo. What does it mean? I just recieved the phone and how come it considers the components unoriginal when they are fresh out of the box?
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] TheMadScientist:
Where did you purchace it from a carrier or online. There have been many rumors of cheaply made clones. If its new take it back for waranty. They should exchange it..
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Qkeez:
I bought it abroad so I'd rather not send it for warranty because I'm afraid it's going to take ages to send me back a new one. Im thinking of buying a new battery, it's going to cost me like 10$ and maybe save me a lot of time, any other thoughts what might it be? Because it can be either a charger or battery, right? Since phone displays some battery error I'd take a guess at the first one
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] albwh:
Have you tried charging it from the PC? If that works, the charger might be broken.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Nick216ohio:
Make sure you get offical version battery, just to be safe. You try taken it to your cell phone carrier'? A lot of them will let you test battery and charger.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Qkeez:
Didn't think of that! I'm going to test it tomorrow and update the post with info on the issue.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] TheMadScientist:
Could be a bad usb circut in the chin also i know. I can use any battery i want in my g3 if it fits or not. It turns on with a old 1800mah lg battery but if i put the orig g3 or no batter i get the ? So now that i read what im typing it could be a battery issue. But if batt dont work next quikest cheapest would be the chin
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Qkeez:
Sorry but whats the "chin" you are talking about?
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] TheMadScientist:
The bottom slide out mudule. With the usb port in it. What the battery clicks into. But i dont think its that cause there is electricity making it to the lcd to display the question mark so thats like a last resort.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Qkeez:
Oh, thus the "chin" name, clever. Yeah I also think this might be the last thing thats faulty since phone seems picky on battery.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Qkeez:
Alright, battery just arrived, phone turns on, charges using Quick Charge so I guess it proves the obivious - it was the battery fault. Thank You for the help :)

[Mogul, XV6800 General] nxtech3:
SPB Backup works great. Just search SPB Software and you will find it. It has a free trial that runs out after a little while though. I think its 10 bucks to purchase a license. I just set the phone up the way i want it and just back it up. It copies everything all the way up to registry edits, or you can just have it copy certain info. ( i just keep reinstalling the trial program)
[Mogul, XV6800 General] Sturatt:
if you just want to backup PIM stuff (contacts, calendar, tasks, etc), look in the development section of this forum for PPCPimBackup. works great
[Mogul, XV6800 General] dagurasu:
Well, the probelm is it isn't capable of doing just registry "edits" actually. As far as I can tell it just backs up the whole registry. What's a good tool for just backing up selected registry entries? I know Phm will do, it, but it won't restore.

I ask because when upgrading roms you certainly don't want to overwrite the whole registry with the old one. It's probably dangerous enough to assume that just your old registry tweaks will still work... but probably not too dangerous to be worth trying.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] Splitter:
I use PPCPimBackup2005-6. You can d/l it at www.freewarepocketpc.net.

Great program.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] davegilbert:
how about backing up stuff besides PIM?

I have outlook and am synching between it and my Titan, so that takes care of backing up the contacts, schedule, etc.

Now, how about all of the cool add-ons I've put in place? Any way to avoid having to manually reinstall it all if you were to wipe the Titan?
[Mogul, XV6800 General] dwizzy130:
just copy and paste the selected registry entries with total commander.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] dagurasu:
Thanks. I know how to edit registry entries, and someone once taught me that modern computer gizmos have this cool copy and paste feature that you mention.

Seriously though, it sure would be neat to be able to compile all one's registry edits in one place and just click to install them. Obviously this is doable as people (here) write cabs to do it. I don't know how, or how simple it is. If it were really simple probably most everyone would do it, and there wouldn't be so many posts asking for cabs for things.

I think I saw something about WinCE CabManager possibly being a good tool for this? Maybe I'll play with it, but if there' s a simpler more single purpose tool for this, that would probably be better.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] defaultdotxbe:
for reg edits you can use resco registry to export all the keys and values you change, then consolidate them all into 1 .reg file, then just import it after a hard reset or upgrade
[Mogul, XV6800 General] dagurasu:
I see it can read phm reg files... except you have to add a line at the top with the Windows Registry Editor program name or it will refuse saying it doesn't recognize the file.. That's seems pretty petty.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] dagurasu:
I found a better reg import solution. Total Commander has rather hidden registry editing capability. The registry is found in \\\registry\ or by switching to 2 virtual window view. Copy and paste reg files to the registry root and that's it.

I had one reg file missing carriage return at the end and rather than complain it made an incorrect value.. so maybe a little weak on sanity checks, but easy to use, and free and has a text editor included.

Now I can dump all my reg tweaks in one big file and save lots of time installing the next rom that will trun my phone into a personal teleportation device... with EnableUpsideDownMaterialization=dword:00000001 by default.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Kubas_inko_CZ:
Hey there. So, as the title says, is there a way of unlocking bad IMEI on this phone? (3rd party tools, flash new ROM, flash custom ROM, android apps, root, web services, ...)

Thanks for your answers and help.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Cosmic Blue:
How is a bad imei, because you tried flashing a custom rom and it caused issues.

If the case, with z3 box you can flash a new certificate for the imei, but it will require you to go a store that has the box.

If the imei is bad because you bought the phone second hand, the answer is no, you need to talk to your provider and see if they can unban it.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Kubas_inko_CZ:
I bought it second hand. And by my provider you mean, my provider (Vodafone) or provider of the phone where is the IMEI locked (Verizon which does not exist in Czech Republick)?

BTW thanks for your answer.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mdb:
Hi Folks,

This is really got me :confused:

I've come from a HTC M7 to a Oneplus 3. The in-browser video on the HTC M7 was great - you were able to control brightness, control the sound and search through the video all via screen gestures. Since moving to the OP3 it has a standard video player that has none of those features. You have to use the old school controls of the video menu bar - there's no gesture control.

I've downloaded MX and VLC but they're only good as standalone players - to play stored content.

It loads the same player on both browsers, Chrome and Dolphin... and it loads the same video player on the HTC :good: and the same player on the OP3 :(

I've tried resetting default apps. I've looked in the App settings but I can't work what app it is that's streams within the browser? Is it part of the OS?

Thank you in advance!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mdb:
The only thing I've found on this... If you're watching in Firefox, you can tap on the video and it gives you the option to watch it on MX Player... but there's no way to set this as a default?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gabe.ulrickson:
Try clearing the stock "Video Player" apps' defaults in its info page in settings>apps
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mdb:
There's no stock video player listed under apps, well there is, but that's for stand alone saved videos. I got in touch with Oneplus today and they said there's no option to choose within the browser... The guy said that I should suggest it for an update, which I did.

Firefox does let you press on the video and choose to open it in MX, but there's no way to set that as a default... Has to be done each time - bit of a pain.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gabe.ulrickson:
Hmm.. Maybe gallery as my phone has a separate app for the video player so you can open like gallery and only see videos... Try clearing gallery defaults
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mdb:
Tried that too and it didn't work. Thanks for your replies :good:

I'm going to try another ROM (Resurrection) for now anyway, hopefully there won't be an issue :good:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JakeArm1tage:
Greetings, all. I'm learning Android Development at the internship I'm doing, and my boss has provided me with a couple phones to work with. The only problem is that the first phone has a pattern key that my boss doesn't know the pattern to unlock, and the second phone has a faulty screen that doesn't allow me to turn on developer options so that I may view the screen using Vysor or another similar program.

So, my question is: what method would I use to access a phone that I haven't been able to pair with using my Google account and that I cannot see the screen?

Thank you.

Thanks

[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AsquareX:
It started two days ago when I placed a call and my phone didn't turn off the screen when it was near to my ear (proximity sensor thing). Next, the earpiece (upper speaker) didn't have any sound at all. I switched to loudspeaker and it did gave out sound perfectly. Later I tried playing songs, videos and none of the media had sound from the speakers while playing them.

However, when I plug in the headphones, the sound is perfect via them. Also when I plug in the headphone, the volume panel appears automatically and lowers down the volume instantly like someone was pressing the volume down button as soon as the headphone was plugged in.

I tried clearing cache, factory reset too. Even after factory reset it didn't work out but after some 2-3 hours it was all fine again for next 2-3 hours and then again no sound as before. The saddest part is my warranty is over just 1 day ago. So if anyone could help, it would be highly appreciated. Thank you!

Edit: Just found out the headphone icon is displayed even though I have no headphones plugged in. What I could make is it's a issue related to the headphone jack. I maybe wrong though. If someone has faced this earlier please shred some information.
