[Honor 8 Pro  Questions & Answers] callme_kpr:
New Update received yesterday evening

Hi Guys,

Similar to you all who purchased Huawei Honor 8 Pro, I was facing issues with calls not going out with Jio SIM.

I have received OTA update yesterday afternoon, which I installed (over wifi). It was above 742MB. The update solved the JIO Issue.

Guys, I suggest please wait, and you will all receive update. I received update 2 days after I bought my new phone.

Thanks

A little off topic but has the recent update also reduced the overheating when using the camera?? I want to buy the Honor 8 Pro but only the heating issue is stopping me from getting one.
[Honor 8 Pro  Questions & Answers] venugopalu007:
It was a good question , some one will answer u.

Heating while recording is common bro.honor 8 pro is the best
[Honor 8 Pro  Questions & Answers] K.khiladi:
It's not that heating is so much that you can't hold the phone in hand.

Be assured that the heating has no effect on camera app like it happened in xperia phones where camera app shuts down automatically.

It rises to a temperature of about 40 to 41 degrees on camera usage. It comes down to personal preference whether you feel comfortable with that heating or not.

Also being a full metal phone, you feel heat more than a plastic body phone but it also cools down immediately after.

Do you actually own G6 or you just talking and fanboying "out your ass"? lol

---------- Post added at 04:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:02 PM ----------

Honestly you might love either one because they're both great phones. I had a chance to try them both and decided on G6 quite easily because i like it a lot more.

There are a lot of different reasons why you should or shouldn't buy one or the other so you should probably watch some reviews (proper, unbiased reviews) and then decide which one you think you'd like more. :)
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] htcnext:
Well they both have strengths and weaknesses. It depends on your preferences. Either is probably fine, most Android sites rate both as among the top smartphones.

Pros of G6: cheaper, 2 cameras, fingerprint reader location, faster ui by a little

Pros of S8: screen, accessory support, modern chips (snapdragon 835, bluetooth 5.0)

I am sensitive to Touchwiz lag on Samsung phones and went with the G6, no regrets.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GT3guy:
Hi all,

my (SIM unlocked, Vodaphone branded) HTC M8 was purchased secondhand via eBay and worked fine with a Virgin Mobile SIM and 128GB microSD card for many months. Unfortunately its USB socket eventually became very iffy, making it extremely difficult to recharge reliably and/or connect to a Windows laptop. It had been OTA update to Marshmallow during my time of usage. I bought an HTC 10 intending to give the M8 to my brother, but after a period of lack of use the M8 failed normal boot, recovery etc., ending up with:

*** Software status: Modifiied ***

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GT3guy:
Well, thanks, but I'm trying to get it back to "factory state" to send it to HTC for repair of that annoyingly problematic USB socket. That makes it almost unusable.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
You are misunderstanding the linked thread. What you tried to do, is to flash

stock

HTC recovery (recovery_6.12.1614.img).

You need to flash custom recovery TWRP, in order to restore a stock TWRP backup from ckpv5's thread.

---------- Post added at 09:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:04 AM ----------

No such thing as a Nougat stock ROM for the M8. The previous post is referring to custom AOSP ROMs, which is the only type of ROM that has Nougat for the M8.

But I don't necessarily see this as a good suggestion. The stock TWRP backup should restore and boot fine, if you follow the instructions properly, and can get the files onto the phone (may be difficult with a broken USB port).

---------- Post added at 09:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:07 AM ----------

Since sending to HTC for repair is the intention, I think you are wasting your time. I highly doubt this phone has any warranty any longer, due to it's age (most warranties are only 1 year from original purchase) and also the fact that is was purchased 2nd hand.

HTC will repair the port for a fee, and in the process restore stock ROM.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GT3guy:
1) Yes, I subsequently realised that I hadn't flashed the correct recovery image, as per post #2. I successfully flashed the TWRP recovery, then successfully restored the TWRP 6.12.161.4 backup., and then flashed the 6.12.161.4 recovery image. All was mostly OK (apart from the lengthy "optimizing nn of 164 applications", re-entering data etc.), but it would occasionally crash subsequently and reboot, and seems to get stuck after the initial Vodafone and then HTC active displays (GIFs?) with just a white screen and the green HTC text.

2) I was less interested in the latest Nougat (v7) firmware, but I did vaguely understand that it might not be available as an OTA update or as a "stock" (HTC?) package.

3) Do you have any ballpark figure for the HTC repair fees? And would you happen to know how/where I would send it? I had a really good conversation with a HTC support guy about what to do beforehand (remove SIM and MicroSD holders, factory reset to clear personal data), but he omitted the "to where" information. The M8 went rogue before I could get around to enquiring again.

Thanks for your succinct reply.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
I haven't seen a $ figure for a USB port repair specifically. I think I've seen around $150-300 US (no idea where you are located) for some repairs. Higher end being full motherboard replacement, which they may tell you is needed, anyway. No idea if they dink around with just replacing the USB port.

Obviously, at the higher end of that repair fee, you practically may as well just buy something like a brand new OnePlus 5.

You may investigate getting the port repaired by a local shop. Probably be a lot cheaper (less than $100) although with less certainty of a working phone afterward. You might be coming back here, and getting help from us to restore the software once the USB port is repaired (HTC will return the phone fully working - but at a price).

As for where to send (if you decide on HTC service) you should contact HTC again. The service address will vary by your location, and they will probably need to collect your details, address, give you an RMA number, etc. I don't suspect you can just throw it in a box, and send it to them. Not following the process will probably delay getting it back, at a minimum; or even (at worst) cause it to get lost forever.

To round out this thread, HTC wanted the price of a new 'phone, so I bought an HTC 10 and forgot about trying to get my old 'phone back (it was a cheap eBay purchase).

[HTC Wings] Soundy106:
Now Telus tells me the S720 can be flashed "down" to WM5 and it will then have MMS support.

So... any clues on how to do this? Or more to the point, where to obtain WM5 for it??
[HTC Wings] Dumdidum:
You dont have MMS on your device?!
[HTC Wings] Soundy106:
Um, no... I have another thread on this topic already. The S720 is loaded with WM6, which doesn't have MMS support. Some providers apparently load Arcsoft MMS Composer to provide this capability; mine (Telus) has chosen not to.

From everything I've garnered so far, WM5 has the capability built-in, and a Telus tech has informed us that the S720 CAN be flashed to WM5 to get the MMS support.
[HTC Wings] Mark Hewitt:
The S730 has MMS support. I'm not sure what the S720 is?
[HTC Wings] Soundy106:
Well, the closest cousin to it I could find, going by the pictures with the forums. You don't appear to have a forum specific to this phone... I don't know what "cute" name, if any, it's been given.

http://telusmobility.com/bc/pcs/handset_htc_s720.shtml
[HTC Wings] NoNco:
mm

Yes it seems to be a HTC phone just for TELUS in Canada. Seems to be a variation of the S730. Uses the MSM7500 instead of the MSM7200

MMS is there on the S730 and wm6 so i dont really know why you havnt got it. Very strange
[HTC Wings] Dumdidum:
Since years, HTC is using Arcsoft MMS on their devices. the s720 is also HTC-Made.

Unfortunately microsoft still hasnt integrated an own MMS client :-(

But it's the first time since years that I've heard of a HTC-made phone without the Arcsoft MMS client...
[HTC Wings] Soundy106:
Apparently Telus doesn't think anyone needs this feature anymore - their story was that NO PDA-style phones have this support because they can send pictures though email instead - no consideration for sending pictures to others who DON'T have email capabilities. "Oh, but everyone will have PDA phones within a year" according to one rep... doesn't help much RIGHT NOW, does it, ****er? He also informed us that NO PDA phones have EVER been able to send MMS messages... really? My Treo 650 from your competitor does it just fine.

Anyway, this is some very interesting information that I can use with Telus... we're pretty miffed about all this - well, my wife is, because before they sold us on our new contracts and these new phones, she was happily sending picture messages to her cousin from her RAZR (which our store agent was amazed to hear, she didn't think that was possible either), and now she's ready to ditch the whole thing to go back to her RAZR. I mean, she loves the phone, the little keyboard, the surfing and email and IM and everything, but...

</rant>
[HTC Wings] PaNa-S:
Maybe get the mms software from the Verizon version of the phone? Or install WM6.1?
[HTC Wings] 10332007:
The S720 is for Canada and Qwest communications in the central / northern US, the Verizon version is the SMT 5800 and has a different outer casing, dont think the hardware changed other than to work on their set up.

I wouldnt want to downgrade os's, dont know if it would happen but some hardware might not function properly without the drivers from the latest version that was installed on the phone. Is there a third party app that will allow you to do what you need? Weird that they would disable that feature, wouldnt it be built into windows and disabled somehow?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] lv128:
I'm making a broad post as a last resort on this, the only two thread on it I found were dead ends.

I've exhaustively searched and trialed different roms/firmware/CSC to get my already activated verizon sim working on my SM-G955FD.

I already know Exynos has no CDMA, neither did the HTC U11 that I had for a short while, and that didn't cause me any issues with outgoing calls. the VOLTE seems to be doing a fine job.

I PM'd two people on xda who said they were using it stock with no problem, but haven't gotten any replies on what steps they took. I can't even get data working regardless of APN or CSC. It simply refuses to connect to the network. I also hate what verizon did to the settings menu on this phone. If I didn't have the GFUDP, I would have moved on a while ago, but I use too much data.

Of course I know I can get the verizon snapdragon model, but I need root. I simply cannot function without titanium and the fact that android, to this day, has no official perfect backup really grinds my gears.

If anyone else has had success with this, please point me in the right direction. tia

[LG Optimus L90] Hyoretsu:
You can delete all of them, only ones that are kinda not to be deleted are apps like file manager, music, etc, but you can freely delete those if you have better user apps installed (Like ES File Explorer and Musixmatch). And you might want to consider partitioning your phone, gives +2GB if sucessfull.

1.) how do i partition the phone to get the extra 2G ?

2.) I must have deleted some file and now on the screen lock page the none, swipe and knock code are disabled.

4.) Still getting the "Unable to download. Please try again later" notification. How can I get rid of it ?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[General Questions and Answers] JmatthewD:
Hey guys,

I just unlocked the bootloader on my Verizon Pixel XL running Nougat 7.1. If I do an OTA update will this re-lock the bootloader for me?

I understand at this time that there is no exploit for unlocking the bootloader for the late 7.1.1 and afterwards.

Please let me know.

Thank you
[General Questions and Answers] Ibuprophen:
You pretty much answered your own question.

My, personal, opinion... not to do the OTA update.

I look at those situations as a more "personal experience" based off the fact of what I've experienced and what I've seen others experience too.

Just look at the fact that if you took the OTA update and it locked up your bootloader again and then take a chance finding yourself stuck with a bootloader that can't be unlocked.

This is only my personal opinion...

I wish you the best of luck!

[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
You can try downloading the OTA from somewhere, then extract the update to get to the .img files inside. You can probably extract the system.img from the OTA update then fastboot or dd the extracted system.img. It's one way to update the stock ROM without altering bootloader. You can probably do the same with all the .img files that you extract, other than boot(you want to avoid the locked bootloader). This is all assuming that your existing bootloader on your device allows the new .img files.

[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] pen²:
Hi,

does anyone know if it is possible to *unset* a special ringtone for a contact?

I had a special ringtone for a contact, but I cannot configure this contact to go back to the "default, systemwide" ringtone. And as I have a tasker task that switches from a loud ringtone to a silent one, simply setting the contact to the same ringtone that I have systemwide will not help. If I change the system ringtone, the custom ringtone for the contact will not change. (For the oneplus 3, I saw screenshots with a "default" entry which is missing now)

[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] bretzelpopo:
Maybe you can paste the music in, sdcard/ringtone

---------- Post added at 10:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:36 PM ----------

You have to be root and paste the file in the root of the phone in system/media/audio/ringtones and put the same permissions as the other Ringtones rw-r--r--
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] pen²:
That doesn't solve the problem, it's not about setting a specific ringtone. Rather, I had a contact with a special, custom ringtone and I cannot find a way to make this special contact "normal" again (ie so that it doesn't have a special ringtone but just the normal, systemwide one). It keeps being special with an own ringtone. I even deleted the contact in Google and recreated it, but somehow the phone recognized that it had the same number or email address and it had the special ringtone again...
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Jonathan.Parker2005:
I have a choice for none and that resets the ringtone to the system default.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] pen²:
it doesn't for me. If I set the custom ringtone for a person to none and the systemwide ringtone is, eg "oneplus tune" and that particular person calls me, the phone stays silent even when the alarm slider is "loud'.

Furthermore, if my system ringtone is "oneplus tune" and I open a regular contact (for which I had never set a custom ringtone before) and to the custom ringtone form it shows me the "oneplus tune" as active (and not "none"). From this, I'd say that "none" simply means an empty, silent ringtone which is, nevertheless, a ringtone which can be custom...
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Jonathan.Parker2005:
Yep, you're right.

It always reports what the systemwide ringtone in that field. Based on your information, it seems the ringtone is stored with the default number of the contact by the sounds of it. I tested it and got same result. I had to set the ringtone to match the system.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] pen²:
I checked my contacts in Google and found no ringtone information anywhere, so it must be stored somewhere on the phone. Even deleted the affected contact and created it as new, but as soon as I entered the phone number, the custom ringtone was back :-\

Don't know where to look where this information might be stored locally. Already deleted app data for the phone app and the contacts app, no luck so far
