[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] fcsprovenzano:
Hi,

My phone just starts into fastboot after a failed setup. I'm trying to recover it but it isn't being detected by my pc. I've tried a lot of USB cables and it is not working.

Even without the properly drivers it should appear at Windows Device Manager, right?

It appears that it is a hardware problem. Before that I've been unable to connect it with my PC, and I've ordered a USB board replacement. I've aleady replaced it, but it is not working.

Thanks.

Try with a deep flash cable or disconnecting the battery and connecting it again
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Daejin:
Hello everyone,

recently my OPO had a bug which, long story short, resulted in having an it expert colleague of my dad's completely wipe my phone. I don't know much about phones, but he went one step further than just factory reseting it, so he removed OS and played a new one on, etc. (unfortunately I do not have much information about what he did, sorry).

Anyway, I got the device back and it was normal in lockscreen, I was able to enter sim code and the device went to home screen. The problem now is, that, I am unable to connect my google account, or any account for that matter, with the device - meaning, I cannot sync my backups, data, etc. with the phone - like you usually would when you e.g. factory reset it and you get the screen it greets you with (select wifi, choose google acc, restore backup...).

So I am kind of stuck at this point because I am not sure how to connect it like that.

The device is running on Android 7.1.2, has Paranoid Android 7.2.1-Release as the OS, is there something else you need to know? Please tell me and I will try to provide as much information as I can (again, I do not know much about the process that went in resetting the phone :/

I am thankful for any tips/advice !! :)
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr.Ak:
Are there any google apps(play store,google services etc) in your device right now?
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Daejin:
hello, sorry for the late reply!

no there aren't! it seems like he didn't install/flash any google apps at all.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr.Ak:
ummhmm,just like I thought.

opengapps.org

Visit the above site and select 'ARM' in Platform and '7.1' in Android and 'Pico' in Variant then click on the download button.

After that,power off your device and press Power button+ Volume Up button simultaneously until you see the 1+ logo and then you'll be greeted with 'TWRP' on screen,select Install and select the .zip file which you just downloaded and simply swipe to flash(you'll see this on your screen) then just click Reboot and your Google Apps should be there,let me know if this works.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Daejin:
Hello,

yeah I did as you instructed and succesfully managed to get the gapps on the device, that worked no problem. Though I didn't get an option to automatically restore a backup from google drive, I should be able to just download the apps manually and have the progress/data restored (hopefully).

thank you for your help!
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pbergonzi:
Glad you got it working with the help of Mr. Ak.

Go into settings->accounts and add a google account there.

This has been happening for a couple months. Seems like a couple times a day I lose my data connection, and the only fix is to reboot. After that it's fine for a while, until it drops again...

Running rooted 6.0.1, radio version 3.61. Anything I can check? Or should I just flash a new image?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] preference:
I have this issue, flashing different radios did nothing for me. The hardware is just going bad I think
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KingofPineCones:
Been having the same issue for a couple months now, going to my carrier for a new SIM and resetting APN did nothing. Thought it was my ROM at first and ended up flashing a few different ones along with kernels, it was never fixed. Data drops and comes back about 10 minutes later, every half hour or so. Seems to not effect calling or messaging, only data. Is this a confirmed hardware issue?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikeygeer:
My wife and I both had our 6P's doing this as well. Seems like the device will get in a connection loop or something. the WiFi drops, then my 4g data signal, then both are out, then WiFi turns on, Data turns on, then repeats the process. I usually reboot, or toggle airplane mode off and on to stop it. Its periodic, but it doesn't last long on my end. I'm on T-Mobile BTW
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikeygeer:
UPDATE - REFER YOU TO THIS LINK. Looks like radio files from Android O Beta DP4 are confirmed to fix the T-Mobile Cell Signal Bug

Hopefully, this means our prayers have been answered

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mgoblue2005:
is it ok to apply the updated radio without upgrading android (staying on 6.0.1)? i heard there have been some issues with 7.x on the Nexus?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikeygeer:
I do not know its comptibility with 6.0.1 - you could just make a backup and give it a try.

conversely I must say - Nougat on good ROMs is stable and gets good battery life. What are you concerns with just joining the party here on Nougat?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mgoblue2005:
-----------------------------------------------

I'm running rooted stock android. Haven't made the move to any custom ROMs yet. I recall when Nougat first landed people were reporting some issues with it on the 6P (battery life? instability?).

That being said I'm open to loading a Nougat ROM if it's gonna be stable. Is there any consensus on top ROM for the 6P (something close to stock android experience)?

Close to stock with aroma installable features, check superxe rom, you can choose between nougat or Android O.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] sn0warmy:
Looking to purchase a OP5 here soon. After seeing a few reviews/unboxing videos, I find it pretty great that OnePlus provides a pre-installed screen protector on the OnePlus 5.

While I know it isn't on par with a tempered glass protector, I like the idea of avoiding the hassle of after market protectors and sticking with the pre-installed one. With that in mind I'm curious to hear how the pre-installed protector is holding up for those who opted to keep theirs on.

Thanks for the input!
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] ultramag69:
Had no problems, does what it is supposed to do.

Using a case that closes and covers the screen now but for the 1st week or so I had nothing but the pre-installed protector on which bore the brunt of my keys and other items depositted into my pockets with the Oneplus5..

Don't know about others but it does appear to be a glass screen protector.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] xgerryx:
It's definitely not glass, that's the first thing. It's fine. Scratched easy, doesn't repair itself. After a few months it'll probably look like a mess but I'm happy it came with one. You can even scratch it with your nail if you feel like trying that out. If it was really great, people wouldn't be trying out all the terrible 3rd party protectors, none of which pass anyone's test so far.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Eric214:
Mine still looks new and holding up well, but the damn thing is a dust magnet. I've never seen anything like it. Got my phone 2 days after launch.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] sn0warmy:
That's what I figured. I know it won't feel as good to the touch as a glass protector but with the new rounded edges that phones have these days, getting a solid glass protector installed with 0 flaws is proving to be impossible. I've experienced this myself with the Pixel. With the S8, I didn't bother with a protector because of how rounded the screen is and the fact that I'm simply leasing it from T-Mobile. However, the S8 already has some nasty scratches in the screen from standard usage. It's brought me to the realization that if I buy another phone outright, a screen protector from day 1 is still a necessity to keep resale value high.

Glad to hear that the pre-applied protector is going to be adequate for at least a few months. I'd rather have to deal with some dust collection and scratches in the protector than scratches on the physical screen on a phone I intend to sell at some point.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] n0013z:
The pre-applied screen protector works ok. Obviously not as good as a tgsp but its much better than the bare screen. I left mine on my 1+3 which I had for about 9 months until I sold it to upgrade. Screen was still in excellent condition. Keep it on until when ever a proper tgsp comes out
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] jrosaly:
What brand is tgsp? I just received my rhino shield but haven't installed it yet. The factory one is holding up fine for me. Given, I haven't dropped it yet, so I really can't give an opinion.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] alukarulz:
What case are you using?
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Asifjaved007:
Pre-installed one works fine for me until now.

Tempered glass protectors, those that are available online are really unreliable atm, so unless you want to keep a knife or diamond cutter in your pocket, this protector will do just fine :)
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Pouic:
A few minor scratches appeared on it since now a month I have my OP5 but the original screen protector is holding in place very good.

Only drawback for me, the plastic of this pre-applied protector is a dust and fingerprint magnet (as opposed to the glass screen protectors)
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] aenews:
And oh boy will you want resale value to be high. I sold my 3T for $430 (Bought for $479) before I bought the OP5 on launch day. It should keep value quite well as long as it remains in mint or very good condition.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] TheFrozen4:
My screen protector bailed ship after 2 weeks, it peeled off on a corner and from there it got worse. I ripped it off and have been happy since although I'm trying to find a good tempered glass replacement. One thing I noticed only after I removed it is how much dust the original protector had on it. It's a pure dust magnet. So that problem is gone too now.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] 3DSammy:
My OP5 factory install screen protector had a small scratch in it within the first week. On my previous screened devices I'd always used these type of protectors (Tech Amour being my preferred brand) compared with the OP5's was very low quality. I'd recommend leaving it on until better protectors become available.

I've replaced my OP5 protector, after several weeks, with the Orzly tempered glass screen protector and followed the application advise from a user who didn't have any of the issues mentioned about that brand. It's been a week since I've applied it and I've not had any of the issues some have had. I'm very happy with the Orzly and am unlikely to go back to a plastic film protector assuming this one lasts as it is now. See the OP5 Accessories threads for your best discussions on the pros and cons of various protector brands.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] campfred:
Very well actually! I'm quite happy with it and will keep it until it breaks or peel off which does not look to be the case anytime soon. Surely, I dislike the fact that fingerprints keeps being present on it but it's something that gets easily wiped off in my pocket or with my shirt. The protector also enables my fingers to glide on it quite well. So, for now, no need for me to buy a Phantom Glass or something like it. \o/
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] HatRiGt:
It sticked fine.. No air gaps on corners
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] MrWilsonxD:
I've had the same experience. This is one of the best I've used. The oleophobic layer is great, whenever I pull it out of my pocket it's clear.

All the tgsp I've ever used (except for this brand I cannot remember for my nexus 6p) would have been smudged up and had rainbow glass by now.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] campfred:
Ah! I do remember seeing some glass screen protectors that had a rainbow effect when wearing sunglasses in my car. I don't have that effect on the stock one. :o
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] slonn:
On my OP3 I took the screen protector off after 2 days because it got immensely smudged but on the OP5 which I've had for a month now the screen protector is still on. It seems to be made of a lot better quality so no reason yet to peel it off.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] sn0warmy:
Yeah, with all my previous unlocked phones, I always put a screen protector on the phone immediately after unboxing. Which has allowed me to always sell the phone to cover almost all of the cost of the new one I wanted to purchase. I'll be keeping the pre-applied protector installed on the OnePlus 5 until a solid TG protector is released without issues.

I have absolutely no issue having a scratched up screen protector, knowing that the screen underneath is still perfect.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] FlyingHippo:
I left the stock protector on, but it scrathed to he** already. Even though i NEVER put it in the sam epocket as my keys.

Still waiting for a tempered protector that doesnt suck...
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Nivekc:
Well mine had scratches on the original screen protector from putting it in the pocket of my basketball shorts only one time for 2 minutes lol. It's pretty crappy but for paranoid people it's better than none I guess. You know what is stronger than even the tempered glass screen protectors though? The screen itself. I haven't used a screen protector since Gorilla Glass 3 came out and haven't had any marks at all on any of my devices which include LG G2, Nexus 5x, iPhone 7 Plus and now my Oneplus 5. I can say that if you are on the fence about buying a Oneplus 5, don't be, it's the best mobile device I've ever owned (and there have been a lot) you will have no regrets.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] sn0warmy:
Going without a screen protector is not an option for me with an unlocked phone that I plan to sell later on. The screen on my 3 month old Galaxy S8 has 2 deep scratches and a bunch of micro-scratches with standard usage and no drops. For the sake of transparency, I think the two deep scratches actually occurred at the same time when my wife grabbed my phone out of her purse and her diamond ring was flipped and the diamond nicked the screen twice. But the micro-scratches are from normal usage. Regardless, I'll be using a screen protector simply to keep resale value high, if nothing else.

And thanks for your words on the OnePlus 5. I may pull the trigger on the phone today.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] ArkAngel06:
Mines got a lot of dings in it, nothing noticeable when the screen is on, but I will be putting a glass protector on soon.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] DSF:
Mine got lots of long scratches but i want to take it off in about a month (after i come back from holiday).

Not a fan of covers and screen protectors
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] jvidia:
I'm going to replace it with the Ultimate Shield "OnePlus 5 Invisible Film Screen Protector"
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] DespairFactor:
I am debating removing mine, it smudges like crazy and you can tell there is definitely degradation of the screen quality through it. However, I am not sure how the strength of the screen is. I assume it must be good since it is Gorilla Glass 5, and my other devices that didn't have a protector were earlier revisions of GG. The only worry is how the oleophobic coating is on the actual glass itself.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] DSF:
Also interested about the coating after you remove the screen protector..

Case and Screen Protector

I've been using the Cubevit TPG screen protector and a Tudia merge Heavy Duty case and so far they are fine and no problems (links below). 'm not saying down the road you won't have the Tempered Glass move or a dust particle gets under it but been using it for a week all is good.

Anyone with the Ultimate Shield Invisible Film Screen Protector ?

Any good for a film protector? Better than the pre-installed one?
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] silvagroup:
Left mine on doing fine so far.

The glass ones on these curved edge phones I have found to be nothing but a pain in the A**. sure they are sturdier, but with all the other problems that come with them they are not worth the cost and constant removing, cleaning underneath and hassles of finding a case that doesn't always lift them up.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] dlads:

With some Very Minor scratches, its going to pass its day 28
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] zwuncki:
So without the screen protector there's no dust anymore on the display? I read somewhere that the 3T display itself is also a dust magnet.

I like that they ship the OP5 with a protector, better than nothing. But it really is a real dust magnet. How about without any screen protector?

And is it a big difference using it without a SP when it comes to gliding with your fingers over the display?

Would you all recommend using it without any protector instead of the preinstalled one? The last years I never used a SP on any of my phones, some hat minor scratches but nothing really too bad really.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] ShehzBurger:
This. The screen protector itself is great, no scratches as of yet (even as I intentionally scratched it with my nails with a good amount of pressure) and been 3 weeks since I got my phone. The problem is no matter how hard I try, there's always dust found on it, even after I cleaned it with a microfiber cloth.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] TheFrozen4:
Regarding friction: the SP on the OP5 is a smooth one, there's a little difference without it and I would not remove it for this alone. The dust however is gone now I have it removed, that really is a big plus for me. If I would be handed a brand new OP5 I would remove the SP immediately. It is nice of 1+ they put it on there, but I liked the one on my previous 3T much more: no dust and it never peeled off by itself.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] tharmor:
Anyone tried official 3d tampered glass
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] 3DSammy:
It doesn't come highly recommended, read this thread in the Accessories section. I'm using the Orzly tempered glass protector and am very pleased but read its thread in Accessories for various user experiences. I highly recommend applying the Orzly as one user described in post #82 to avoid the issues some users had but luckily I've avoided two weeks on after application.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] MrWilsonxD:
All the tgsp are in the same state imo.

I had ozrly for oneplus 3 and it was not to my liking. There was no adhesive in the glass, only the border.. So it constantly taped upon impact. Furthermore, lining up the dots for navigation was nearly impossible.. They were always slightly off.

I had the non full screen oneplus 3 tgsp and that one was great...... Except it didn't cover full screen and started chipping after 2 months... Which I could live with because I was using it without a case occasionally but I really wouldn't praise any screen protector over another, they all seem to suck from what I've read for the oneplus 5.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] s.i.t.h.l.o.r.d:
I can absolutely agree to both parts of your statement. Still using my 1+5 with the default protecting foil and it does its job. The glass protectors have just arrived today tho - just in case. Unfortunately, I very used to wiping my screen every day at least once like I had to do for my OnePlus One (without any foil/protector).
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] dlads:
For me the original screen protector was weak, it scratches and lifts eventually, a decent matte or tgp would be best, orzly have a good track record, although you really have to get it perfect or you'll cover screen.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] HDash:
Very minor scratches, that's all. Still looks like new.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Phosphenetre:
Mine eventually started showing signs of wear after three weeks, including a small section rupturing open just above the centre of the screen. Took it off and got an inexpensive local protector installed. Doesn't cover the screen edges, but decent otherwise.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] shangxor:
Still using with original protector, it does the job for me, no scratches. But I do take care of my phone ^^
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] DaSoul:
It has little scratches but would call them "micro scratches". You can't see them in daily use. Will keep it until it has some real scratches or starts pealing off somewhere.
