I got the deal you wanted, let me give you some advice.

It's about three things. One, don't use chat. Chat is impersonal and doesn't allow you to convey appropriate tone. Two, don't get rude or verbally aggressive. Three, you need a strong account. By that I mean like I have been toting a 250-350 monthly bill with Verizon for over 8 years with a good payment history as well.

After a good hour on the phone, and being told multiple times that I would have to pay off the 500 bucks still owed on the S7Edge I never wanted... and politely explaining that I needed someone to speak to that can work outside the usual box of rules they work within.... I finally got transferred to a supervisor who looked at the account, and said okay, I can make this right. He forced the contract as paid in full which pushed that 500 bucks onto my bill, then immediately went in and issued a credit for the same amount. This made my S7Edge paid for in full so I could not only upgrade early but get the same promotion as every Joe off the street that never went through 5 phones during the Note 7 fiasco. So I got it half price still like everyone else. It will be here tomorrow.

That was the kicker I think. I simply explained that if they had A. returned my old paid for Nexus 6 to me (which they said they couldn't do) or if I had the Note 7 still (which had the annual upgrade available), they would have exchanged it for a Note 8 right away no questions asked. So I simply said, I just wanted them to honor the annual upgrade I was entitled to beginning August 2016 when I agreed to purchase the preordered Note 7. They didn't have to pay off the 500 bucks on the S7Edge. But I promise you my approach combined with my logic and my account strength made it happen.

They even added 12gb to our data plan. The supervisor also personally called me the next day to confirm the transaction went smoothly and to be sure I was happy. I have never received that level of customer service from any company. It was truly refreshing.

---------- Post added at 01:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:03 PM ----------

They offered me the same deal initially, to pay half the remaining balance on my S7Edge. I said no thank you and called back and started over again with someone else who sent me to a supervisor who paid off my phone in full, all 500 bucks... .
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] RaymondPJR:
Now that's a shame! I too ignored everybody and kept my Note 7, it takes a full charge thanks to software blocking the charging update that makes it a brick. Also, as predicted, T-Mobile was not able to cut us off if you were paying your bill, so I've had full service this whole time. I, however, won't be selling this to anyone, it's going back to Samsung for a full refund! There is no expiration date on that recall! That's $850.00+ and use of a free phone for a whole year! I'll use an iPhone 5 to get the Note 7 owners discount.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] BlakMajick:
After this I waited until the next day an called. I told the nice young lady what the situation was and she put me on hold. She came back and told me that I would still have to pay off the phone. I told her that would not be financially feasible because I owed $586 on that phone and I pay $521 a month on my bill every month (Have Me. my mom, my son and my wife on my account plus a few other devices). I told her that if I would be required to do that then I would explore my options of going to another company and having them pay off all of my stuff and then I would only have to worry about getting the phone. She put me on hold again for about 7 minutes and when she came back she told me that they were going to pay off the remainder of my phone. Problem solved.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] RaymondPJR:
One tough negotiator! Bravo!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] furfmonkey:
Just wanted to give an update. i got my note 8 and its amazing.. i did have to call verizon to "remind" them about the deal. but after 2 reps i got one with a brain and all is well .. old phone sent in and my account has already been credited what i owed on the s7edge... ..:)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] neyenlives:
Did you still have to pay half of the S7 Edge balance off? Or did you take my advice and insist on full pay off by Verizon?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] furfmonkey:
No verizon paid the remaining 268 i owed and im getting the up to 50% off note promotion as well lowering my monthly from 40 to 20.. Once you get the right rep they take care of it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] neyenlives:
I got them to pay the full 500 bucks I still owed on mine. They initially offered to pay half and split it with me which I politely declined and called back a few hours later, when they agreed to pay it off completely.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] pyraxiate:
I got tmobile to give me the 400 back towards the note 8 from the note 7 issue. I was forced into a loaner s7 edge but they promised everything I paid on the s7 eip would be applied to the note 7 ( or 8 since it wasn't re released ).

Good enough for me. Brings the note 8 down to 5 something.

Took a bit of fighting though but tmobile hasn't done me wrong. Shame they aren't doing the 400 off too for previous note 7 owners through Samsung ( 825 total off ). That would have been awesome but hey, 400 off is better than nothing :)

No loss out of my pocket and I got to use an s7 edge for a year :D

I may call them back up once all the credits are applied and argue with them to see if they will give the 425 back too because it's a Samsung offer. One step at a time though right? [emoji14]

[MX Player] MrKaon:
Hi

Is it possible to have PiP mode in Android O?

So far handful apps supporting it but no video player.

Thanks
[MX Player] MrKaon:
No one?
[MX Player] dhruvdave:
Try vlc player it is currently supporting.Mx player will be adding it in future
[MX Player] stage121:
This is my #1 most requested feature for MX Player. I really hope it is implemented as I keep checking this forum and general updates every day. I have tried VLC player and it works very well with PiP but find MX Player better in every other aspect.

Could a dev let us know if this is actively being worked on and if so, is it anywhere near release?

Thank you very much :)
[MX Player] Aswin08:
Is the pip available in any of the latest versions? else hope PIP is on the todo list, the PIP in VLC is really useful and cool.
[MX Player] kapilathi:
Still waiting
[MX Player] stage121:
Yeah, I’ve already switched to VLC. It works really well :)

Couldn’t keep waiting for MX Player to catch up...
[MX Player] adhammagdy:
Yeah +1

All video players have either pip or floating window mode except mx player.. the devs have been promising this essential functionality for too long.. mx is great but watching in split window of nougat isn't practical as it takes a large part of the screen and disappears when the keyboard is open.. and many apps don't support being put in split screen
[MX Player] truelies1:
I only use mx player, but why it still no pip?
[MX Player] adhammagdy:
The developers are lazy
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
We have some plans for supporting PIP in future.

But, It may need lot works as MX Player is very complicated in nature when compared to others. So, we can't provide any timelines about the availability.
[MX Player] yiddyuk:
Just to get a clearer picture

Did you start working on it already or is it just a plan for the future?

Do you reckon it'll take days, weeks or months until a release?
[MX Player] MrKaon:
Development of new features are slow as snail, with new VLC 3 I'm dumping MX Player completely, used it since it's inception. Time to move on.
[MX Player] GokuSSJgod:
I Have vlc 3 and it's much more polished than before. You just press home for the pip instead of navigating your way to so it. I HAVE no idea what mx hasn't added it. I know that they are capable. It's got to be one of the most featured requests. Android P dev preview will be out first though ha.
[MX Player] Gh0st94:
I hope they will add it soon. :(
[MX Player] oroboros74:
It's been some eight months since we started asking about PIP. Still no road map?

Have others started moving away from Mxplayer and to VLC?
[MX Player] nezebilo:
Vlc wastes 5 times the amount of battery MX player does. Probably the complexity the dev was talking about. It's not an option for me. I'll manage MX till PiP is supported
[MX Player] dawnmaster:
Well, another month goes by and the latest update still doesn't have PiP feature...
[MX Player] GreatLordAnt:
I really want to stick with this player but it's falling behind with pip.
[MX Player] Aswin08:
Because of lack of PIP I tried moving to VLC several times, but i have so much of videos and there is no video folder view like in MX, VLC just shows every videos in its home or useless storage view where its shows every folder in device.

So eventually i come back to MX. But PIP is too usefull. I may need to try some other video players.
[MX Player] vaynefox:
I'm also waiting for this feature to appear in mx player since I like to play light games while watching some videos, I really hope that they will add it in the future but for now i'll switch to vlc...
[MX Player] cognitivedissonance:
Still nothing, huh? Seems weird. Guess I'll switch to VLC too.

---------- Post added at 09:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:38 PM ----------

Am I missing something? VLC doesn't seem like it can load m3u streams...
[MX Player] Anticeon:
I hope people stop pirating and buy license of mx player so dev can work faster
[MX Player] MXPlayer:
We are already working on it. Since MX Player's UI design is a little complicated, It takes a while for us. We will try our best to bring it to you at the earliest.
[MX Player] cognitivedissonance:
This is just conjecture, but I have a feeling you've seen development slow a little bit due to the acquisition -- being bought out takes a lot of time and effort, so now that it's official hopefully you'll see development efforts increase. That said, we have no idea what that deal looks like, and there have been plenty of times when a buy out ends up resulting in a greatly slowed development pace, the app being modified to the point where it is terrible just to align with the new company's strategy, or the app being discontinued. We've also seen instances where the new owner injects some.... let's call it "questionable" code into the app, that almost forces users away from it when they find out. Hopefully none of this is the case with MX Player, but we simply cannot know.

I'm sadly going to start shopping for a new player though - I'm glad these guys got paid for their hard work, but I have a bad feeling about MX Players future.
[MX Player] mkanet:
Could someone please post here as soon as there's a beta MX Player available for download? I'd love to have this feature.. just like YouTube and Netflix.
[MX Player] oroboros74:
It's been almost 2 years. I wouldn't hold your breathe...
[MX Player] MXPlayer:
We regret the inconveniences this may have caused. We would like to confirm that we are currently working on some of the most requested features like Equalizer, Casting, PIP, etc. Stay tuned with us for further updates :)
[MX Player] mkanet:
I'm usually the new equalizer now. Hopefully, PIP will be soon.

[General Questions and Answers] Will Von Wizzlepig:
Does the capability to direct video input through the usb jack on the phone exist- perhaps as an unused feature?

I have a tmobile s6, I am hoping to use it as part of a project, and I would much rather not have to mod the hardware of the phone. The attractiveness of a sleek and complete device with its own battery, charger and a high-res screen is hard to pass up.

There are a lot of solutions out there to use a smartphone as a monitor- most are crazy hacks and/or rely on some flavor of remote desktop, and that's not going to be good enough for my project- I need snappy video with very little if any delay, and I am hoping to find a way to take a functioning android s6 (hopefully only with software) get it to work as a monitor.

I am hoping that either an app or modding an android distro might result in some viable solution. Does anyone know about this? Thank you in advance for any help.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] ben5639:
Hi guys, i recently met a problem where my AA not working at all. Before i rooted my phone, AA worked fine. On the first custom rom (Viper Rom), the AA worked fine too.

But then when i flashed Pure Fusion OS rom, the AA stopped working. Usually whenever i connected my phone to the car, the AA will launch automatically and AA will show up on the car. But right after i flashed Pure Fusion OS rom, nothing came up, it was always on charging mode only.

Then, i flashed back to Viper Rom and now AA is not working again.

I was thinking will it be that while installing Pure Fusion OS required to format the data instead of wiping the system which affected something in the system so that AA is not working anymore. As now Viper Rom is installed again after the Pure Fusion OS and the AA on Viper Rom is not working too.

Does anyone had met this problem and any solutions on solving this?

Thanks in advance.

I want do clean install so I evrything wipe expect user data. And there problems started. I haven't installed twrp, this warning shows up and i can't root device on 4.0.2 and 4.1.6. Aslo i can't install roms by sideload (?)

I tried full wipe data - don't work. I was looking in the forum Oneplus any tutorial didin't work.

I tried this tutorial https://xdaforums.com/oneplus-3t/how-to/fix-dm-verity-warning-final-fix-4-0-3-t3555094 to remove warning. It works but after update from 4.0.2 to 4.1.6 warning screen again came back. It started after updating 4.1.6 to 4.1.7.

If you can slowe this problem I will be grateful. And i sorry for my engilsh :(
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] redpoint73:
If you want a "clean" install, user data is

the

most important thing to wipe; as it is the mostly likely thing to cause problem (on a new ROM, etc.).

Not related to the other issues you mentioned. But important to note, anyway.

I'm confused. If you haven't installed TWRP, how you are trying to root? You need TWRP, in order to root.

Also, sideload can be more problematic than just flashing a ROM in TWRP. My suggestion, would be to stop messing around, and just flash TWRP.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Wronko:
* I wanted to write that After installing update 4.1.6 as well as on the factory as a TWRP warning appears.

*On TWRP can't root device, TWRP think the su ZIP archives od broken.

*And TWRP by bluetooth Spark can't decrypt device (my old password od bot working :( )

[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] ilyr73:
Hi,

As I have to send back my 3T for RMA, I spendt almost two nights with reading lots of guides about how to remove that red warning. The usual methods (flashing 4.0.2 FW and trying "dm_verity_disable/enable" with fastboot or reboot with "enforce_dm_verity", etc..) did not work at all. I ended up by this way:

- With 4.1.6 ROM flash TWRP (boot into bootloader, "fastboot flash recovery <filename>"

- In bootloader "fastboot format userdata" (this will remove encryption)

- Reboot to recovery (don't let the OS boot, otherwise you can start again)

- Flash SuperSU 2.79 (don't ask why, I guess this is needed for the encryption removal as well)

- Reboot to OS, check that encrytion is removed (in security settings, at the bottom you should see "Encrypt phone" instead of "Phone encrypted")

- Reboot recovery, flash OOS 3.5.4

- Reboot to OS, now the red warning should be removed

- Encrypt your phone (optional, if you like that way)

- Download 4.1.6 OOS image on the phone and use System update in the settings with local update to get back to 4.1.6

You should have 4.1.6 now without the red warning. If you want to get rid of the orange warning as well, you can flash the stock recovery and lock the bootloader back.

After that my phone was like an original one... :) With leaving some of these steps out, I always got failed..

I wrote this by memory (performed that yesterday), so it's possible I forgot something, but feel free to write a PM and I try to help. Of course the process will wipe all your data, so backup everything you need...
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Wronko:
Can you link for your SuperSU zip and TWRP? ;)
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] ilyr73:
TWRP for Oneplus 3T

SuperSU 2.79 for Oneplus 3T
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Wronko:
After flashing su zip I want to check if I have encrypted phone and boot frozen.

So I go to recovery and install 4.1.6 rom and i get information "Error opening: '/data/system/ndebugsocet' no such file or directory"

Again something went wrong

Edit: Somehow I just install 4.0.2 (again bootloop), and stock recovery (i booted to recovery 2 times and on second try recovery ask me for password(?) so i wiped device). Everything was fine expect dm verity. At this point I give up. So having everything stock i just use ota (4.0.2>4.1.6) and this was probobly the key for success.

In the evening I will try root my device and see if everything is good.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] ilyr73:
Have you flashed TWRP and 3.5.4 first? Have you used bootloader with "fastboot format userdata" before flashing supersu (remembering that after this, normal boot should not start before supersu is flashed)?

Also I am not sure if flashing 3.5.4 image will update the firmware as well, but for safety, you might try to flash that as well: Oneplus 3T Firmware collection
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Wronko:
I didn't flash 3.5.4 at all, just 4.0.2. I used "fastboot format userdata" in bootloader. And then there was a problem (boot loop.). And after that i booted into recovery(I had then stock) asked me for password )At this point I did not have any) so I wiped my device again (recovery suggest it). The device turned on normally, but still i had dm verity. Finally I updated by OTA to 4.1.6 and dm verity screen was gone.

At this point I install TWRP and rooted, without any problem.

So i think fix for this situation was going back to full stock and use OTA. (Again sorry for my English, I trying my best) :)

Steps

Unlock bootloader

Enable adb debugging via developer settings

Push the SuperSU zip onto your watch:

"adb push SuperSU.zip /sdcard/"

"adb reboot bootloader"

Flash or just boot custom recovery:

fastboot boot twrp-3.1.1.0.img

fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.1.1.0.img

Install SuperSU:

In the bootloader menu, select "RECOVERY MODE"

Press "Install", "Install Zip", SuperSU.zip, next, "Reboot after installation is complete", start.

Now you should have root in android wear 2.0 final build number NXH20E

All the files are not mine, i have just build the TWRP for our Smartwatch.

It's possible?

Michele
[LG Watch Urbane 2] zbask:
you can check root trough adb

connect the watch and type this:

"adb shell"

"su"

you must have installed busybox on rails on the watch, you can try only booting the recovery with this command "fastboot boot twrp-3.1.1.0.img"
[LG Watch Urbane 2] physicistman:
I can confirm that you are correct that the TWRP does flash correctly and that the normal reboot to recovery works properly and I thank you for that, but the SU does not flash properly I get error 2 which indicates it does not work for the device (through searching) google, I forgot what that error was, I tested through the only app I see on wear that allows root and works, Advanced Settings and anytime I change the processor settings and exit the app, the same standard non-root settings appear again. Indicating that root was un-successful. I will see what I can do for the SU zip, becuase it appears to be related to the updater binary, the updater scirpt is usually more straigt forward, but sometimes harder to figure out. I will try to do what I can in this regard, but power might go out (Harvey) and circumstances might becom unfavorable throught this weekend.

Working.

I worked on it over the weekend and figured out what was my problem. After going through the updater binary for the SuperSU I noticed that if you made the kernel insecure within the default.prop the updater thinks you are already root and attempts to go for the regular install instead of the systemless root method required by wear, so I luckily made a backup of the original unmodified kernel, re-flashed that and attempted to flash the SuperSU zip again, I did not use the zip in this thread instead I made a flashable zip of the newest SuperSU 2.82 version that works for wear. I have uploaded both the SuperSU zip I created along with the original kerenel that is unmodified. One thing to note if you flash the original kernel you will have to flash TWRP recovery again as I had to. I am still new to how Android Wear works, but will try to help with what I can.
