[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] StefanB86:
I haven't. I mean, I probably don't use my phone like some people do and test everything, but I've been pretty happy with this ROM.

EDIT: Now that I remember, the yellow flashlight is there, but well, it's not something that I care about. It seems like every custom rom has it. I can deal with it :p
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] xbekasix:
same thing here, overall this is one of the most satisfying rom for mido (in my opinion), i been using this phone for 10 days and i been trying 3 custom rom so far

yeah the yellow flashlight is present in all custom rom, it doesnt really important for me tho :silly:

ROM now includes basic telephony support. GSM calling doesn't work (at least for me with T-Mobile), but theoretically SIP calls can work. At the very least, you can seemingly use USSD codes to control/check things (since in/out calls don't work, I forward my number with a USSD code to a spare phone I have).
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] lirong:
I am having issues figuring out how to best manage bluetooth on my device.

I use a bluetooth headset, and separate bluetooth headphones.

I am having the following problems:

1. If I am on a call and my headphones are on lying on my desk from an earlier music session, when I answer the call it goes to headphones. Thats OK, but sometimes I just want to speak on the phone. So I hit the bluetooth icon on my call screen to just speak into the handset. This works but after a few seconds it automatically keeps connecting unless I turn off the headphones. Is there any way to keep this from happening other than switching it off (which sometimes is a pain since it may be packed away in a bag, etc.)

2. Similar problem except between bluetooth devices. The call may get answered by my headset, and then during the call it ends up switching to the headphones. Is there any way to prioritize between two different bluetooth audio devices that are both connected in terms of which one you prefer to handle the phone calls?

Thanks.

I received my phone a few days ago brand new, updated the firmware to 21s, and experienced an overheating issue so I thought doing a factory reset may help before trying to return it possibly for a new one.

However, once I reset the phone, I cant seem to get my google account to sync properly anymore.

The play store doesnt show any of my installed apps and doesnt show that any of my apps need updates either, though if I manually search for the app in the store, it will allow me to update it that way. Syncing my google apps like mail etc seem to be very slow, and I usually have to manually refresh to get new mail.

The biggest issue though is the play store is trying to charge me for every app Ive ever purchased. If I go into settings then purchase history in the play store app, I can see the list of all the apps Ive ever purchased and what I paid for them. When I click the view link which takes me to that app, its showing full price and tries to get me to pay for it. The only workaround I have found is going to the website store, and choosing to manually download the paid app to the phone which seems to work.

Ive tried everything I can think of to fix this. I made sure the google play store and google play services had the latest version. Ive gone into all the google apps and cleared the data and rebooted. Ive tried removing my google account from the phone settings and Ive factory reset my phone three more times and the issue persists.

I have contacted Google support multiple times over 4 -5 hours yesterday which was a nightmare and the reps are extremely unhelpful trying to tell me I must be doing something wrong like logging in with a different account or that the problem lies with the developers of the apps and I need to contact them directly (like I need to contact 100 different app developers to see why theyre trying to charge me for apps again...?) Ive tried telling them I can still access all my paid apps on my old phone and the web browser shows all my purchases as well.

The only thing I can think of is some Google config file or something is remaining on the phone between factory resets which is causing the phone not to connect fully with Google services. The phone isnt rooted, I didnt want to do that in case I had to return the phone due to the overheat issue I had.

Anyone have any possible idea what is causing this? Prior to doing the first factory reset, all my google services worked fine. It was only after doing the first reset I ran into this issue and Google has no clue whats going on and it doesnt help the reps that contact me usually reply with general troubleshooting that has nothing to do with my issue
[LeEco Le Pro3 Questions & Answers] rocketJeff08:
The paid apps now showing up as paid was definitely a bug i encountered when I first got the phone. I don't quite remember how I solved it. I think I may have just uninstalled/reinstalled google play services and rebooted a few times. After a few hours, every app was showing up properly. I wouldn't bother contacting the app devs or google again, it's definitely something that can be solved by messing with the phone.
[LeEco Le Pro3 Questions & Answers] DrHibbert:
I believe the cause of this was the version of the Google play store. It happened to me the first time I set the phone up. I've sideloaded a newer version of the play store and then it behaves like normal.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mura20:
Hello guys,

For some reason, my phone shows that my SIM is locked ( I was on RR 6.0). I need to flash the 4.1.1 firmware for Koodo to unlock the SIM.

Can anyone send me a link for this firmware?

Thank you!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
You don't need Koodo to unlock the sim. Just flash the stock LJ2 firmware with Odin and use the dialler menu to permanently network unlock the phone.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Old faithful:
I know it's been a long time, but did this procedure actually WORK? AFAIK, Koodo Note 2s never came with less than KitKat, and we all know that Samsung has blocked downgrading though its bootloader starting then.

The reason I ask is I'm looking for a spare phone for mine as a backup and can't seem to find one on which I can load my Jellybean 4.1.2 CM based phone image.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tenkan:
Well this an interesting post, I have a similar problem, I have 2 exact Note 2 phones one with custom firmware (4.1.1) one without, I would like to copy/clone the stock firmware to my other (as I somehow managed to delete the stock firmware on it)

Now I have made a backup with TWRP and copied it to the other phone but TWRP refuses to install it, it tries to install and gets most of the way but at the very end I get the 255 error "install failed"

Why can't I copy/ install this backup?

Do I need to to use some other recovery software or make a backup some other way.

Thanks
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
The note 2 sgh-i317m was used by Telus, Rogers, and Bell.

This downgrade method works. I've used it to network unlock four note 2 models.

The stock 4.1.1 firmware from sammobile.com did not contain a bootloader file which allowed me to flash it using Odin on a phone running a stock 4.4.2 rom.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Old faithful:
Man, if this really works it's going to solve all my problems. Are you saying you can flash the 4.1.x ROM on top of the the 4.4.2 bootloader (presumably one could deselect the bootloader from the 4.1.x ROM if it was included - sorry I'm quite rusty at this, haven't used Odin in years), so that the phone may be running ICS or JB despite having a 4.4.2 encrypted (locked) bootloader?

The idea is being able to load Clockworkmod recovery and from it, the rooted 4.1.2 backup on my external sd card...

Sorry if it's been asked before and if I may be confused - Thing is, I haven't done this type of tweaking in 5 years :o
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
I could flash a stock 4.1.1 ROM from sammobile.com on top of a stock 4.4.2 ROM because the stock 4.1.1 ROM didn't contain a bootloader. I did this to use the menu method to network unlock the sgh-i317m; however, the phone cannot stay on a stock 4.1.1 ROM with a 4.4.2 bootloader because the phone cannot connect to a cellular network with this 4.1.1 ROM/4.4.2 bootloader combination. After I unlocked the phone, I either re-flashed a stock 4.4.2 ROM or a new custom ROM.

The bootloader on the Canadian Note 2 was never locked the way it was with some USA carriers.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Old faithful:
Are you saying the Koodo/Rogers.... 4.4.2 Note 2 bootloader is NOT locked on our phones, ergo, that I could downgrade to 4.1.1 including its bootloader successfully?! If so I'm set, I could purchase a used one on kijiji and simply reload my old Bell based ROM backup on it :) I simply look for a way to load my 5 year old Rooted ROM onto a newer version of the phone. I have on it apps that won't run on 4.4.2 that I sorely miss on my tablet (which runs 4.4.4)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
The bootloader is not locked which allows for the installation of TWRP and cwm but it cannot be downgraded.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Old faithful:
In other words it does allow for installing the 4.1.1 ROM for unlocking the phone, but it can't can't actually be used with the 4.1.1 ROM... What if I simply reinstalled the 4.4.2 modem, wouldn't that work?

I now I'm asking quite a lot - but in my case if I haven't been able to find a used phone that hadn't been at some point 'upgraded' and consequently became shackled (I've been looking for over a year now) in which case I might as well mourn it and move on to a new phone and start the fight for freedom all over again :mad: Honestly, I've grown tired of having to fight for the basic right of ownership against the relentless push for slavery that is the general trend in technology, to force people away from freedom of using the software they prefer and force them into a system where they must follow the dictates of corporate giants so perfectly exemplified by the cell phone, computer and browser based service industry.

Like Frederick Douglass famously said "Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never had and never will"... In other words if you want freedom and true control, you MUST FIGHT the providers and the manufacturers whose prime interest is to keep you enslaved :mad:
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Installing the 4.4.2 modem will install but the stock 4.1.1 dialer doesn't work with a 4.4.2 modem and 4.4.2 bootloader from what I recall. It's been a long time since I had a note 2.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nidjo83:
Hello everyone, i hope this is the right place for my question and that someone will be able to help me.

I recently purchased Ulefone Power 2. That's a Chinese phone based on MTK6750T Octa-core cpu and Android Nougat 7.0.

Since i'm hearing impaired i have to boost headset volume a lot, which was very easy to do on my old LG G3 (there was an dedicated app for that, which ofc required root).

However, increasing volume on Ulefone turned out to be very hard task.

I found out about engineering menu which is accessed by ##3646633## code, and i increased headset volume to max. value of 160.

Volume is now slightly louder, but unfortunately still not enough for my needs.

Ulefone is rooted and i have access to root files in \etc folder (which contains volume files i need to edit - at least i assume so), but the problem is i don't know which .xml file i'm supposed to edit to raise that max. 160 volume - common sense didn't help me much.

Is here anyone who can tell me how to solve this? I hope i explained my problem well, feel free to ask me for any further explanation, and thanks in advance to everyone who reads this.
[Touch CDMA Accessories] ryan stewart:
I like the precut screen protector that comes with the Touch in the box but you only get one :( . After a while that one gets a bit beat up so I want to replace it but I could never cut one as well as that one was. Id love to buy a place where I could buy them, even in a pack of 10 (girlfriend has the touch too) to replace them from time to time.

Anyone know where to get them precut to fit?

Screen Protectors

Telus in Canada sells them but they are a bit pricey. They appear to be $9.99 ea. Check it out here:

http://telusmobility.ca/ns/pcs/acc_htc_p3050.shtml

So hopefully someone knows where to get them at a better price! This is the kind of price you had to pay for a screen protector for my Sony Clie when I first got it but they eventually came down dramatically.

The best Android phone I've owned to date.
[Moto Z2 Force  Real Life Review] filthyfnj24:
I love the phone enough to buy it multiple times, searching for the combination of carrier compatibility, unlockable bootloader and color.

I also love the phone enough to overlook its main shortcomings (no headphone jack, not truly waterproof, small battery) I love the hardware enough to use an unrooted phone. *gasp* literally every Android device I've ever owned has been rooted within a week, my first was a Nexus one.

This is a bit of a monumental device for me. It's my first ”phablet." My last daily driver was a Sony Z3 compact and a Z1 compact before that. I dropped my Sony trying to put it in my pocket while juggling keys, a backpack and my water bottle. The back glass shattered and the front has a hairline fracture.

Initially I was going to get the Z5 compact but I decided maybe I'd try something a little bigger, so I ordered an Xperia XZ from Amazon. It was a nice phone, but I hated the purplish color of the "black" model and I found myself constantly worrying about it after my last drop, so back it went in about a week.

The thing is, I hate using cases. What's the point in buying a phone you like the look and feel of just to cover it up? Enter the Z2 force. When I first saw promos talking about the shatter proof screen I was intrigued. I was never miffed by the easily scratched screen because an $8 screen protector is all you need to solve that problem.

Between the piece of mind of an unbreakable screen, stupid fast experience, solid aluminum body and gorgeous OLED display this phone is a keeper.

I definitely do, this phone's technically a successor to what used to be the Moto X series before the Z line took its place, and those had awesome third party dev support.

[Moto Z2 Force  Real Life Review] TwoBuells:
I like my Z2F a lot! So much I bought a second one, a Sprint version. I enjoyed flashing ROM’s and stuff since the Motorola Droid days before 4G. I’ve had Safe strapped RAZR’s and then the RAZR M with the bootloader unlocked, that was fun till I bought a Moto Z Droid. Fast phone but being on Verizon, no root and no playing with ROMs.

I think the Z2F is a great phone, lots of ram so the bloat apps don’t matter much but I miss flashing ROMs. So I purchased a Sprint Z2F and as soon as the UPS guys delvers it, I’m going to activate it on Sprint, Unlock the boot loader, root it and tryout some ROM’s. And after a month or so I want to unlock it and add it to my Verizon account. Should be fun.

Love this phone at all. Just the backside has scratches from the first day on. Never complained, but was there out of the box. More important for me is that the screen has no scratches, even after months. No monday device, absolutly perfect, love this plastic screen. Very sad to know that we don't get any newer model of this force stuff. Battery is very good, too. That's very good at all. But additional screen protector isn't needed, at least at my model the screen isn't scratching. Maybe I have to do it with harder stuff? Don't know how the people get scratches in the screen :eek:
[Moto Z2 Force  Real Life Review] spizzlo:
I'm absolutely in love with this phone. Obviously everything comes down to value, and for the original $700 or whatever asking price, there were better options. For $260 though (with the projector mod included), it's a downright steal. The phone is blazing fast and the only complaints are no headphone jack and a relatively weak camera. The very un-2017 screen ratio is also a negative, but considering the price you can find the phone for these days it's nothing to me.

ROM support is straight up bad unfortunately (huge thanks to the devs that do support it), but the phone works very well stock. I've always ran my phones with ROMs, but I don't really feel like I even need one.
