[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] :
I wonder, does Google Assistant work just as great as Bixby does in controlling the functions of our Note and S phones as well on the Pixel phones? Bixby is exclusive to our phones and built for them specifically, Google Assistant wasn't necessarily built specifically for the Pixel line (or was it?) but it works (to some extent) on many different Android phones. So I'm wondering if GA works just as well on the Pixel phone as our Bixby does on ours because that's their platform, their flagship, their phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] apprentice:
I doubt it. Google Assistant is consistent across all Android phones and what it does regarding system access is software driven. Bixby is different in that it only works on 3 devices , as it has low level system hardware access.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] :
Ah, gotcha. Thanks.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Superspiker:
The 3G Icon has never displayed on my tilt. I live an area that supposedly has great 3G coverage.

It's quite annoying since all the screenshots I've seen of the Tilt are always displaying the icon.

I get the E, H, and very rarely the G icons but I've never seen the 3G icon.

Any ideas?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] dgduris:
Well,

The H is for HSDPA, which is higher speed than what the 3G denotes....so I'd say that you are doing just fine. :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Superspiker:
Yeah, I do get he H quite a bit.

But I just find it strange that I've never seen the 3G Icon.

Maybe because I am not using the stock AT&T ROM. I'm using Q-Mobile 1.2

Is the 3G icon specific to the Stock AT&T Rom?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ~~Tito~~:
Yea, is there a cab that changes the icon to 3G?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] dgduris:
I have the stock AT&T ROM in my Tilt. When it goes online, the 3G lights up first, then, when I am lucky, an H replaces it. The difference in speed is noticable when the H is on. You can use Kaiser Tweaks to enable HSDPA on the Tilt - stock, it only allows access to the slower 3G speeds.

Why would you want to disable the higher speed transfer?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] VidMan:
The H icon you are seeing is actually a good thing as it means that AT&T now has full HSDPA coverage in your area. In my case, the first three months that I had my Tilt, the 3G icon showed when idle and the H icon showed when I was downloading data. One day, out of nowhere, the 3G icon disappeared and has been replaced by the H icon for good. I have now noticed two things that are different now that the H shows all the time.

1. I can now make a call without the data connection being disconnected.

2. My download speeds shot through the roof! When the 3G icon was there, I had speeds of about 550kbps. Now I get speeds of 1000kbps!

Dont worry, I too panicked and tried to fix the missing icon, but even after a hard reset didn't remedy the situation, then I knew it was something tower-based.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] redsrule2500:
H is good. It's amazing. It's like cable internet in your pocket. (OK...but close...)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Jay2TheRescue:
On a Tilt you can also go to Start / Programs / File Explorer / My Device / Windows / HSDPASwitch to enable and disable HSDPA. You can even create a shortcut to it and put it in your programs folder or start menu.

There's a lot of hidden goodies in the windows folder. Everyone should just browse through there and see if they find anything interesting. (Field Test is there too!)

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Jay2TheRescue:
I've clocked downloads at up to 1,200k over my Tilt.

-Jay
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ~~Tito~~:
No I mean just the icon, I don't want the H icon. I just want 3G. For some reason when ever I look at it it makes me feel like its a slow speed.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] redsrule2500:
HSDPA is the fastest type of 3G available. Think of the H as the strongest possible connection.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] cproaudio:
In my city, I get 3G icon in the phone mode while not connected to the internet. While I was in Las Vegas, I get the H icon in the phone mode while not connected to the internet. It's strange but it's true. I've always thought the H icon is for data only but apparently H is also in phone mode too. I get the H icon in my city only when I'm usnig the AT&T's data and only while there's data session. When data is idle, it change back to 3G. But when I was in vegas, it never changed to 3G. It always displays H.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] cooljeff2:
when i go into the windows folder to look for the hsdpa switch i cant find that. can i be anywhere else.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Jay2TheRescue:
I don't know. That's where it is on my Tilt... You can always download Advanced Config or Kaiser Tweak to enable it as well.

[Samsung Galaxy J2 Questions & Answers] Savitar99:
Hi to everyone ,

At first I would like to show my frustation that even after trying 5 TIMES .I cant able to enable dolby atomes or viper in my STOCK ROM.

So ,someone please help me with this thing

I will be very greatfull to him

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy J2 Questions & Answers] darshan1504:
Okay so here's how you do it

1) Make sure you have root and TWRP/CWM recovery

2) Download and unzip the folder from the main viper page

3) Now for viper to work in Enforced SELinux, you'll have to flash this zip via the recovery that you have. (https://www.dropbox.com/s/k9cnruw2e1t1d4t/ViPER4Android-supolicy.zip?dl=0)

4) After that, you will need to download this(http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3244040&d=1428124059) You'll find a folder named audio_config. Go to your root browser /system/etc and scroll till you find a file named audio_effects.conf. Rename this file as audio_effects.conf.bak. This will be a backup just incase you mess something up or it doesn't work.

5) Move the audio_config file that you downloaded from the link above to /system/etc

6) Move viper app to /system/app folder and reboot. The app will disappear

7) Now go to /system/app and open the file. You'll see the apk there. Install it and reboot.

8) Open v4a and install drivers. Reboot again

9) Enjoy!

[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Fed P:
Hi folks,

I'm a long-time lurker here and I have benefited massively from all the advice and threads for various phones throughout the years. I wanted to give back a little to the community: please be aware that the same way that U11 had massive issues on AT&T getting 4G/LTE support (not to mention VoLTE etc), the Essential is in the same boat. No 4G/LTE at all.

You will see some people do have it and might be confused as to why the inconsistency of results. The reason for that is typically that they brought their SIM over from their previous phone, which in their case AT&T did have listed and fully enabled features-wise in their database (the IMEI of the older phone).

To be clear, this is a crappy move by AT&T, not necessarily HTC/Essential (but similarly these companies should work with the carriers to get their devices working, OnePlus did it just fine with the 5), but as an end-user you are screwed either way. I would recommend cancelling the order if you can (I could not), and returning if you can (I also seem to be having trouble, no replies at all).

Good luck to you all. If anyone knows how to get AT&T to change the IMEI associated with your account for a dummy IMEI/one that confirmed does work, please let the rest of us know.

Best,

Fed

[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Fed P:
Yes, like I said, you will only face this issue if you give your Essential's IMEI to AT&T. I'm guessing you didn't do that, and just came from your old phone? I had no choice, because I needed a new SIM card.

I just got off the phone with AT&T too. They confirmed this phone model (and brand) is not even in their systems, which is why it drops down to the minimum spec. This is exactly what happened with the HTC U11, I can confirm that now. They said they would try to correctly provision the device, but since that is a slow process (up to 2 weeks), I will try to return it in all likelihood.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] danon.brown:
Definitely didn't do that. The phone is unlocked and coming from an unlocked phone. Put in the sim and kept it moving.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Fed P:
Yes, my previous phone was also unlocked. It actually has very little to do with the phone - it is about what IMEI AT&T has associated with your number (*not* your actual IMEI). From that, it decides what features to enable for you.

Just a perfect thread for this perfect post: https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/...lte-faster-and-fixes-all-your-problems.77304/

Ask me any questions you might have as I created the thread and all the contents in it.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Fed P:
That's definitely good info for some, but the issue here is unfortunately not solved by anything in that thread. As your first step goes "The OnePlus One and 2 IMEI is supported by AT&T so give them a call and tell them to enter the IMEI." - the Essential IMEI is not supported, that's the root cause of the problem. It's silly because it could have been prevented by either company (by AT&T by not defaulting to 3G only for unknown devices, or by Essential by working with AT&T to get certified on their network like all other manufacturers do).
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] hx3:
I never experienced any 4G/LTE/VoLTE issues with my unlocked U11 on AT&T at all, whether it was completely stock or unlocked bootloader and rooted. Everything worked from the start and still going great today.

I was previously using an unlocked HTC 10 (also on AT&T) and just swapped the SIM in to the U11. No contact necessary with AT&T. So I imagine it'll be the same when I receive the Essential, even though I'm pretty positive I'll be returning it for a refund, unfortunately.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] tech_head:
Borrow a phone from a friend and have them set up the SIM on that phone.

Swap back when you are done.

Who says I'm changing the Imei of the phone. All I'm doing is having the person call the carrier to tell them to change the Imei. I'm not stealing anyone's imei , I give tools to check to see if the imei is available and not used by anyone .

---------- Post added at 08:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:55 AM ----------

Dan I understand but people need to know how to do this. If the carrier they have isn't willing to help them, it's not the manufacturers fault or the users fault. The only point of that thread was for no one to suffer because of the business decisions att decided to inflict on there users
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] xanthrax:
would you please expand this ?

quote from your innocent link that I have removed above

You`re guiding people how to " make a carrier THINK you have an official IMEI " ?

if this is OK in your opinion then what else can one do with an IMEI which "someone thinks it belongs to a certain carrier" ?

Do I miss something here ?
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] xanthrax:
The users must personally contact their carriers and also check before purchasing a device whether their carrier works on it or not.

Providing such tools which creates fake IMEIs or make the carrier "think" are not welcomed here , I don`t know and don`t care about other forums , one of the reasons why we , as I said above , do not allow encouraging users to participate on other phones related forums. Other forums may have different policies , we have ours and must be followed .

IMEI talks are not allowed here , as simple as that

One can argue till tomorrow and swear on what he wants that "WE WILL NOT BE STEALING PEOPLE'S IMEIs" , on XDA doesn`t work this way
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] bestlands:
Just so we put it out of the way first, I didn't write that thread. I wrote this one; https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/...lte-faster-and-fixes-all-your-problems.77304/

What do you mean what can someone do with an imei when someone thinks belongs to a certain carrier. I don't know how this stuff works overseas but we in the USA don't ask peoples for there imei when they switch phones, we only do it to start activating service with a carrier, or if the person came from a 3g to 4g lte smartphone we will ask them to activate it. For some reason, still to this day, ATT thinks that every imei not in its system, will fall back to 3g. So getting back to your question, If essential even did get the correct certification to use on att network, it will take months or almost a full year for them to start accepted essentials imei. Honestly you can't do much with an imei, you can blacklist the phone, but that phone will still work on overseas network, and the other possibity here is Sprint which still required the imei to be merged with the sim card can cause problems if the imei you created is going to be used by that network. Other than that the possibility of generated imei's isn't that big of a deal as it was even 5 years ago.

---------- Post added at 09:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:16 AM ----------

So can you explain to me why XDA does this? I see only one potential threat and thats blacklisted imeis but the carriers in the USA are so bad, that they allow bad imei;s to go through as well as telling you the phone works when it doesn't because of incompetent reps, plus they don't have the imei of that phone. If talked to people and have done this before so i know how hard it takes and also the frustration people have over this. Kinda boils down to why people use an iPhone, it just works from day 1, but thats a story for another day.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] 12paq:
Do you know if ATT has the Essential Phone registered in their system yet? I need a new sim and I am heading to the store today. Thanks.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Fed P:
Hi 12paq,

I've sent the Essential Phone back... I don't know if they added the model/brand in general, but I know their claim to manually edit my IMEI to be 4G-capable still hasn't happened - because I don't have 4G on this SIM card now regardless of phone (since the network still thinks it's in the Essential).
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] 12paq:
Thanks for your time!

I already have the ph-1 up and running on an old sim card and I get 4g. The problem is the sim card is failing and I have a new unregistered sim in hand. Just wondering if I put a new card in and then activate it, will att still be a problem. In short is it the card or the phone?
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Fed P:
So just to be clear since there is some confusion here about IMEI spoofing etc (this is illegal) - the problem with all this is purely, and I mean PURELY, what IMEI AT&T has in it's database for you. For reasons I cannot comprehend, AT&T does *NOT* just take your actual device IMEI (this is what you should not be changing). So in your case 12paq, if you activate a new SIM and this does not involve telling AT&T to update your IMEI in their database, and you have 4G now, you will have it in the Essential.

Guyz.

I have updated my nexus 5x to Android Oreo by using Google OTA update file which I found on google site..Build Number is "OPR6 170623.013 ". I flashed using "ADB Sideload "method and did a factory reset after that.

So my first and major question is the battery.Seems like its draining so fast comparing with the Nogut. When I browsing using mobile data, I saw that there was 1% battery loosing every minute or two.

And other problem is how to activate notification system in home screen.I saw some OREO videos,in their home screen some apps showing notification when its touched.So how to activate it on my nexus.?

Last question is, this build " OPR6.170623.13" is the final stable version for Nexus 5X.? And I receive the next OTA updat/security patch via mobile network in future ?
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zurik:
I will answer the last question, Major upgrades will stop on Nexus 5X and 6P. What I mean? We will not receive Android P or any future release after P. We will receive security patches until September of 2K18. After September 2K18, Google will say goodbye to this device. Good news is that we will flash custom ROMs for next OS's. Android P ,Q ,R, S etc, like LineageOS or AOSP based. We don't know if Google release 8.1 or 8.1.2 or something similar. : fingerscrossed:
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheBigJoe:
Unlock bootloader, wipe your device, set up your device, lock your bootloader, wipe your device again, flash Oreo image from google, with flashall.bat file, wait until it's done.

Set up your device and lock bootloader from Developer settings.

If this not working for you, there is a chance your device is damaged (battery).

Hello...

I have a Nexus 5x that I updated it to Android 8.0 Oreo and it worked for only 1 day, it suddenly went out while I was using it and it has not started again ...

I think it's not European, because it's LGH798 ...

Through recobery I have formatted it to factory and remains the same. I have also tried installing Android 7.1 but it gives error ...

Could it be because the bootloader is locked?

Neither does the oem unlock ....

I do not know what I can do, I feel sorry for him, I worked very well and I was very happy ....

I request support, help ....

I need your knowledge !!!!!
