Hi guys.

If it's not mind you and if i opened this thread to right place i'll have a wish from you.

I'd really like to use my tablet as a tablet phone. Is there anyone who can help me about this?

Thanks guys.

Best wishes..
[MeMO Pad 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnkirchner:
Simple answer is no, the tablet needs the hardware.
[MeMO Pad 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ruben Craveiro:
that doesnt really even make any sense, theres not even a way to put a sim card and the tablet doesnt have the low sound speakers (or whatever its called)
[MeMO Pad 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KiTTy_xL:
i have slot to put simcard in my tablet. im using simcard for sending messages and taking messages. and there is phone application i just can see who called me after they called me. my phone is not calling but im seeing after they finish to call me. So i think there is a hope to make it normal phone. Also i saw someone is making it but they saying 20€.

Maybe someone can know this.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] kxdaorbit:
I've been using 'SideSync' for a bit now, allowing me to mirror and use my S8+ on my laptop (see attached pic). Using multi windows I can even carry out rudimentary multi tasking.

It struck me that on a basic level, this is not too dissimilar to 'Dex'.

I'm not a developer, so I may be talking pure rubbish, but would it be possible to 'Frankenstein' the two programs?

Quite clearly, the 'Dex' dock isn't needed to connect to the laptop and within 'SideSync' the functionality to use mouse and keyboard already exists, the missing element here is the 'Dex' desktop.

My hope is that the desktop functionality can be integrated to the 'SideSync' app. Doubtful that it's as simple as I've laid out, but I have great faith in the talented boys and girls here.

Anyone?

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] rickyjune:
is there any other software that can control your band switch other than the above

preferably something along the line of today plug-in or system tray so that I can see if the phone switches to 3G when i don't want it to:confused:
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tullian:
Hello people of the world,

after reading a lot of posts here I still can't fix my phone's issues, so I need to post. Bear with me...

I have an N910F which was entirely stock and functioning without problems. Two days ago I accepted the official update. After that, the phone regularly lost connection to the mobile net, froze, and restarted. It would work for a short while until it froze and restarted again and again. When I tried to use the camera, the live picture was completely distorted. The phone crashed and has then gone into a bootloop.

I pulled the battery, did a recovery start and wiped the cache. No difference. Factory recovery next, no difference.

I have since tried several stock and custom firmwares, always taking care to follow instructions and use the correct bootloaders, modems, etc. TWRP is working.

When I flash a stock firmware, it will go into a bootloop. With any custom ROM, it will crash during startup (logo) and switch off.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Protect the eMMC?

So, after more reading I began to suspect that the eMMC had moved on to the valhalla of electronics. Sent my phone to service where my suspicion was confirmed. Luckily, they were able to replace the chip without having to put in a new board.

Is there any way to prevent this kind of failure again, or at least make it less likely?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicholes:
Yes this is a known issue after latest update you could you install only one application called wakelock so that your phone doesn't reboot and CPU keeps awake
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tullian:
Thanks! I had read about that.

Got my phone back from service today, they had flashed stock 5.0.1. After checking that it worked I flashed RR 5.8.4 and installed Wake Lock Powermanager. I searched for a comprehensive tutorial on what the settings do and which to use. Right now I set it to PARTIAL_WAKE_LOCK (4) but I'd like to read more about it. Any tips on that?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicholes:
installing power wakelock and setting up on partial wake lock is enough.if you get trouble in starting your phone remove its battery and put your phone in refrigerator for five min.and try to start your phone.this problem also related and happens after the latest update
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] ReDuXX528:
Hi! I own a RN4X for about 3 months. When i started using it I could easily get minimum 9h of SOT no matter what i was doing (usually im just watching youtube, listening to music and using browser). Now i can get barely 6h of SOT. No matter what ROM I am using or what kernel. Max 7h of sot. Are xiaomi's batteries so weak or just my device is kinda defective? Should i give it to warranty? :(
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] k3lcior:
You are so spoiled.. there are barely any phones on the market that will give you 7hr SoT, also what you gonna say in warranty? That you have 2 hours less SoT? This guys in service center will face palm so hard..
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] ReDuXX528:
That doesn't change thing that people i know still have 10h+ SOT on the same usage with that device after using it for a year. It just isn't normal that after 2 months my battery started to behave like its 2000mAh. And battery isn't my only problem. I've got a few bad pixels, headphones sometimes "unplugs" itself and phone starts to use speakers, awful signal in a big city (ofc only for me, i know many xiaomi users and their signal is pretty good in those areas)
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] k3lcior:
There is no such thing as same usage between 2 people, 20% less screen brightness can give you 1 more hour sot if not more, different carrier = different signal = different battery life, there is thousands things like this which make battery life comparisons useless, dont be stupid.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] ReDuXX528:
Trust me, i've been using it on 40% of brightness and underclocked cpu to 1684Mhz. We all are using the same carrier. Our use is really comparable. I wouldn't post that if it was different.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] aabenroi:
try to do super clean flash... means you use OTG to flash... wipe all the partition on device, including the internal storage too....

My wife have been using mido since february and still got 10+ hours SoT, there is no performance or battery degradation. That makes me switch to mido too about a month ago... :laugh:

do not install use custom kernel, you see the long list of features but actually it's not necessary...

for example, Its absolutely not necessary to underclock the cpu... decreasing cpu clock will not increase battery backup.

When the cpu is slow, yes it will consume lower power on load... but It will need more time to load

When cpu is fast, yes it will consume higher power when on load, but it will go idle faster
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] M@n!$h:
calibrate battery usimg an app. you will any on play store. install any and calibrate. the must require root.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] ReDuXX528:
I've done that already a few times.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] ReDuXX528:
Thanks for answer. Do i really have to use OTG? Can't i just use miflash? :/
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] aabenroi:
dunno, I just keep things simple... install TWRP then flash any rom easily without need of PC.

MiFlash can erase internal too ?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] ReDuXX528:
it.

Of course i have twrp. I've been using custom roms. Yes, miflash an erase everything and then install stock images. I guess i will try it.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] ReDuXX528:
Well, i flashed stock rom via miflash. Still i can get max 7h of sot on LIGHT using. No custom kernels. No matter if im using a miui based rom or a custom. Still max 7 hours :/
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] Atharkhan101:
Exactly same issue with my Redmi Note 4 too. I was getting 12 to 13 hours of insane Screen on time with same YouTube, Brower and music but now ots only 6 hours.

Please do let me know if you found any solution.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] ReDuXX528:
Meh, I got used to it. If your phone is still under warranty they should replace your battery for free. Im too lazy for that. :)
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] lawong:
same as me too , 10-12hr sot last two month when my rn4x still new , now only 6-7hr sot , using resurection remix with the same usage as before , and dead pixel keep increasing.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] Atharkhan101:
My phone had dead pixels so they gave me a new one as i was under warranty.

Thank you for the reply. I'll get the battery replaced as I'm still under warranty
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] JokerNJ:
I picked up a Galaxy A3 320FL last week and have been pleasantly surprised. There is just one annoyance - I like to use GBoard/Google keyboard. On previous devices I was able to enable the keyboard click noise and reduce the volume.

Not enough to annoy anyone else but just loud enough for me to hear.

With the A3, I can enable the keyboard click noise but the volume will not change from LOUD. I can set to default or any other value and the volume stays the same.

Has anyone else found the same problem? And have you found a solution?
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] Trystetan:
I got the same issue with the vibration, any other value than default result to a non vibration. I guess these settings are not compatible with our phone.

[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigDomTheFirst:
So, long story short, I recently bought a Nexus 9 from ebay which arrived with factory reset protection.

I have spoken to both Google and HTC about the situation and both were of no real help except for saying a few things outright between them to give me good enough reason to believe one of two things.

That 1 - it is possible to flash factory images over a device with a locked bootloader

or 2 - it is possible to unlock the bootloader without having access to developer settings

Anyone have any experience with either of these possibilities?
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enriquejones666:
https://developers.google.com/android/ota

Full OTA Images can be flashed onto devices with locked boot loaders.

You need to boot into recovery and select sideload update.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigDomTheFirst:
Yeah, I know how to do that, but that only goes for updates, doesn't it? I tried to sideload a previous build onto the tablet but it failed the procedure, so it doesn't really solve the issue and if I flash a more recent update I still get FRP :/ If I wanted to revert back to the 7.0, or even marshmallow, would that be possible? Or does that require an unlocked bootloader?
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madbat99:
Those are full ota images, same as factory image. Meaning full package.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enriquejones666:
Ah yes, now I see your predicament. Unfortunately, there is no "there" there. You do need an unlocked bootloader to wipe the system clean with a factory image, and as you noted, the Full OTA Image will recover you from a system that won't boot, but it won't get rid of FRP.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigDomTheFirst:
Exactly :) Hence my questions as to how do the manufacturers wipe everything and flash the new image without unlocking the bootloader? Or will it always be a trade secret?...... Hmmmm
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Uncleheff:
did we ever fix this? my bootloader is locked and no os installed. Was trying to return to factory and went thru all the flashing steps successfully then at the end locked the bootloader. Now tablet says "for development purposes only not for production use" and boots back to fastboot. It will not reboot at all
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigDomTheFirst:
Never found out how they do this.... are you able to boot in to recovery? if you can do that you may be able to flash a recovery OTA through 'apply update from ADB'. Worth a shot :)
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bryanx86:
If up dont mind my asking how did it get that way by just locking the bootloader? I was just about to flash stock and lock on my volantis, then read this...?:confused:
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madbat99:
definitely don't lock your bootloader. That is a horrible move and serves no purpose
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bryanx86:
I actually reflashed last factory stock image and relocked without issue. It is a horrible move, I agree...I already miss root, but it suits the purpose. Thanks for your reply.:)
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madbat99:
it's only a bad move if you make a mistake and can't repair it because your bootloader is now locked. But if it goes well then you're all set.

[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] in_dmand:
I'm on the google play pixel xl... So when I go to update to oreo, I will need to revert to stock, then update, then re-root and unlock bootloaders again correct? Would it throw me into a boot loop if I just take the OTA while unlocked/rooted? I will wait for a few weeks until the bugs get worked out probably, and the SkipSoft ToolKit gets updated anyway but I was just curious. Thanks for the help!
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] pcriz:
So if you are just going to flash the factory firmware, you dont need to return to stock.

I would remove -w from the flash all bat

flash in both slots on the device

boot into recovery

fastboot boot twrp

factory reset

let device boot once

fastboot boot twrp

flash super su (or whatever you use)

Nothing can relock your bootloader except for the fastboot command initiated by you.

Hi all,

My son ordered this phone from deal extreme and we knew that it wouldn't have total support for 4G frequencies in our area, but we only needed text and telephone, not data. When the phone arrived, it connected to the network fine and he was able to send texts so we thought all was well since, as I understand it, SMS rides on the voice data packets so if SMS works, so should voice.

We soon noticed that he could not make or receive telephone calls. We spent quite a bit of time playing with settings on the phone and calling Virgin Mobile (Canada) tech support. They, too, thought that since he could SMS, he should be able to call. They could see that the IMEI was attempting to make calls through their network and they added it to his account but to no avail.

I am currently trying to get the phone replaced through deal extreme, but I've been asked if it can be repaired. What do you guys think?

Here is a video of the problem.

[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] OnkelDeffe:
Hi guys, during install of a HZC 2.58 firmware on my xtrons td101as (which had an older HZC version which I replaced with a GS version) I saw that there were 4 android files updated - so it seems that there are dependencies between android rom and mcu firmware version - and now I get the "version unmatched" message on my screen (but everything seems to work fine?)

So when I first install a new mcu firmware and then (after that) install an android rom it would override the changes made by the mcu installation?

What is the correct installation order when installing both android rom and mcu file and do I have to re-install mcu after updating the android rom?

Greetings

Set factory settings after updating MCU. Assume you documented your MCU settings before changing MCU to a differing manufacturer? Did you not realise that MCU update contains manufacturer/model factory settings config?
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] OnkelDeffe:
Unfortunately I don't know, what files where updated - there was only a message "Updatin android files 1/4"

I always installed without mcu config file and did the settings manually after install.

I installed the "HA" 2.59 mcu file (corresponding to the HA android file): "Version unmatched -01

Then I installed the old "GS" 2.56 mcu file - NO ERRORS!

What I don't understand: thougth the "Version unmatched -01" error was shown on the screen EVERYTHING worked without any problems? Strange ...

Now I do have a working system with HA 2.59 android version and GS 2.56 mcu - curious that the original "HZC" mcu file did not work too (I bought it with "HZC" mcu file installed, version 1.4 or so)

my S7 is behaving weird since 3 or 4 weeks.

The phone turns off (screens goes black).

It does not turn again when pressing the power button as usual...

If I connect usb power it shows the battery loading symbol and I can start the phone again.

The weird thing is, when the phone shuts off for example @70% accu the loading symbol show something around 30% after connection power...

If the accu was around 40% it shows for instance 5% ...

Does anyone have a solution for this or the same problem?
