[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] reidler:
Hmm. I have the Note 8 unlocked phone model SM-N95OU1. I use it on Sprint. I recently found out about CALLING PLUS. I would very much like to use that feature but I cannot find it in the settings to be able to turn it on. I also cannot find VoLTE anywhere in the settings. I spoke to Sprint and Samsung but have not spoken to anyone knowledgeable. They're asking me to try to do things that sound off the wall. Is there any way to get CALLING PLUS going? I did get Wi-Fi calling to work. A few months ago Sprint had done something on their end to provision it. The option for Wi-Fi calling is not in the regular settings menu. I have to tap on PHONE and then on the top right the 3 dots and then phone settings. That's where I can turn Wi-Fi calling on/off.

I was also never able to get Sprint's visual voicemail to work. I wound up using my Google voice number with some call forwarding settings to accomplish that. I had always thought an unlocked phone is a step up. But I've come upon several issues that have caused me frustration.

Can anyone help me set up CALLING PLUS? Thank you. Eli

[Huawei Mediapad M3 Questions & Answers] gnirtS:
I received a new M3 today (on B010). European 64gb LTE version BTV-DL09.

It offered me no OTA for Nougat at all so i decided to do it manually. I tried a manual dload method to B030.

The upgrade proceeds fine, it all works and loads BUT i can't turn bluetooth on. It simply doesn't work. Factory reset made the thing unusable as the keyboard didn't load meaning i couldnt enter a wifi password. Downgrading back to B009 or B010 and it works perfectly again on Android 6.

I tried a B009 > B010 to B303 with firmware finder as the second attempt and an identical problem - all proceeds fine except Bluetooth won't turn on. Ive tried 2 different 303 version releases on firmware finder now (both of which say authorised) with the same issue - no BT. Downgrading to 300 prior to going back to Android 6 i tested and no BT there either.

So can anyone supply me with exact steps to try to get Nougat on this thing? Firmware finder has a bit lost of various 303 firmware for example - all they incremental?

Wha? No Note 8.0 ever go dual sim variants, even in the UK, which are phablets. Being 3 year old hardware, the only custom ROMs worth while now have modem updates but are limited to the carrier info. You would need to provision with a proper simple from the provider you intend on usingl

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Galaxyfantasy:
Tried a few ultra4k recordings today and I'm not impressed at all. Playing back on my (4k monitor working perfectly with other 4k videos) PC and the videos flicker very slightly every 1 second !?. The detail isn't impressive either, curved blades of grass have jaggies on them ! (looks like too much compression). I record to an external 200gb class 10 SD card.

Thoughts ??
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Galaxyfantasy:
Update

Noticed several posts along the same lines so I'm not seeing things YET if played back on the mobile itself using the inbuilt player or VLC there seems to be no issue ??. I can zoom in a little with the inbuilt player too and don't notice jaggies on grass or weird effects in flowing water.

Samsung must have done something odd with the video to upset a pc. Any one with experience ?.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Slavon-93:
Hello everyone. I have a problem.

I'm building AOSP 8.0.0_r11 for Pixel XL and when I flash the result zip I'm getting a bootloop.

How am I building?

1) Select java 1.8

2) cd AOSP_8.0

3) source build/ensetup.sh

4) lunch aosp_marlin-userdebug

5) make -j9 updatepackage

6) wait a couple of hours

7) PROFIT

I know the ROM needs vendor blobs, I have them downloaded, extracted and extracted from .sh files.

How does the bootloop look?

Power On->Message about unlocked bootloader->0.5 second of white screen with Android on it-> reboot->repeat.

How do I flash the ROM?

I tried:

1) fastboot update -w aosp_marlin-img-eng.user.zip

and

2) extracted everything from zip and fastboot flash --slot _a PARTITION IMG_FILE

What am I doing wrong? Did anyone have success in building AOSP for this phone?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] noidea24:
Did you "make clobber" after installing the drivers? If not, run it then try your make command again.

Alternatively, try "make otapackage" instead of "updatepackage" and then flash it in fastboot.

Also, why are you using the -j9 parameter?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Slavon-93:
I did "make clobber". It just removes the build directory like "make clean". And this step is redundant if you never built the system before (with or without binaries).

Why make -j9? Because it shows better performance than just make. I know the build system should get the cores number and set the number of build threads, but for some reasons it doesn't do it very well.

P.S. I tried to "make" without -j9 and it is MUCH slower than with -j9.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] buru898:
Are you using the most updated fastboot and adb and sure your computer's variables aren't using an older one also? That was my issue when flashing Oreo.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Slavon-93:
I'm using those that come with Android Studio 2.3.3 updated to latest versions of all components. That's not the problem with slots support - everything flashes without errors.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] npjohnson:
More than those blobs are necessary. Look at a invisibleks marlin lineageos device tree to get an idea of what files need to extracted and put in vendor.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] noidea24:
Make clobber also cleans out configuration files, in case some of them had been created before the drivers/binaries have been extracted. Speaking of binaries again, did you install the Qualcomm ones?

My build environment is a i7 3770, with 8gb ram, and two blues in raid 0. To get my build compiled correctly, I had to disable ninja and I used -j8.

******

Tomorrow, I'll run a update and build Oreo on my machine from a clean directory and I'll get back with times before end after ccache is filled.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Slavon-93:
Well, I don't know about Pixel, but when I had some experience in building AOSP for Nexus 5, Nexus 6, Nexus 9, binaries from Google and Qualcomm were a required minimum to get system booted. And if I wanted to get rid of some errors in logcat, I had to add some additional libraries, but the system booted and worked.

Yes, of course. I went to google binaries section, selected marlin 8.0.0 and downloaded two .sh files - one from Google, and the other from Qualcomm. Then I extracted them and got a vendor forder which has google_devices/marlin and qcom/marlin folders inside.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] cjkacz:
I'm curious to know how your process to flash the rom zip works? I've been sitting on a rom build for days because I can't get Twrp to work properly. Also, if your worried about your blobs/vendors the repos are starting to show up on GitHub.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Slavon-93:
I'm sorry if I misundestood the question. I don't undestand why you should need TWRP because you just get the sources, get the blobs, compile them and get a zip file which can be flashed with fastboot command. So, no TWRP in this process is needed. I still don't know how all these ROM creators make zips for flashing with TWRP...
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Zavon:
So I was able to get AOSP booting using the basic steps and blobs provided from the script. Even was able to activate the always on display
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Slavon-93:
Can you, please, describe in details these things:

1) What Linux did you use for building?

2) What revision of AOSP 8.0.0 did you download?

3) What version of blobs did you use?

4) Did you just download the 2 blobs .sh files to the root of the sources and execute them?

5) What AOSP configuration did you choose for building? (I mean aosp_marlin-userdebug or aosp_marlin_svelte-userdebug or aosp-sailfish-userdebug)

6) What command did you use for building?

7) Did you use ccache?

8) Did you flash Google Factory image of Oreo before flashing AOSP?

9) What command did you use to flash?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Zavon:
I'm using a base ubuntu vm I built with 2 cores and 8gb ram. I used r11 if memory serves correct. I used the scripts from google and extracted from the factory image. The configuration I used is 21 (marlin-userdebug). I just used make -j8. Could careless about an update zip. And the factory image was on before I flashed using fastboot.

Side note, I also have ElementalX and SuperSU installed. suhide was giving me issues and I just have to figure out the Gapps (I'm a cop so time is hard to come by). I also enabled always on display but just remembered to enable the burnin protection

[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Detocqueville:
Hello,

I am an American going to study abroad in Prague over the next year. I currently have the North American model and was wondering if I needed to buy a new phone for the correct LTE bands, since I plan on traveling around Europe. I have used the site WillMyPhoneWork and found that 2 of the major 3 telecom providers, T-Mobile and Vodafone, support bands 1 (2100MHz) and 7 (2600MHz). However, I am missing band 20.

If anyone could help with the 2 questions I have, it would greatly help.

1) Should I expect reliable coverage, in the Czech Republic and other EU countries?

2) Am I able to lock my phone to a specific LTE/4G band, and would this solve my problem (or have downsides)?

Thanks for any responses.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] RASTAVIPER:
As you have said, it depends on the country.

As long as other LTE bands are available you should be fine and also you can always use 3G.

As far as I know, you can't lock to a.specific band, but you can select to lock only on 3G bands, if that will be convenient for you.

On my Fire HD 8 7th Gen I can't access 5 Ghz networks. It accepts the password, and tires to connect several times before eventually saying "Wi-Fi Connection Failure". 2.4Ghz works fine. This happens on two different devices.

Any idea what could be causing this?
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dr3x1:
Disregard. Apparently the Amazon Fire doesn't support 802.11ac.
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DragonFire1024:
I'm pretty sure they do, but it's an option that isn't available to us in wifi settings which are incredibly limited.
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dr3x1:
I can't imagine why it wouldn't use the latest standard by default if it has access to it. Are you saying that it's there, but we can't use it w/o root?
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DragonFire1024:
Not sure. Like a lot of those hidden settings, they reset at reboot. If I had to guess, something in the framework settings is marked as 'persistent=false'
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DB126:
5th-7th Fire devices (Fire, Fire 7, Fire HD 8) do not support 802.11ac. SOC decision; likely a cost saving measure.

Hi all,

first I dont take any credit for this - it is just to share my experience after trying several file explorers on my Shield TV.

MT Manager is not only Shield friendly - but one of the best looking file managers for Android TV (switch to night theme first).

No ads, full power of Android file manager with unbelievable functions (esp on APK management), all in 3mb size.

Oddly I could not find original address to download (I believe developer is from China) - so you can google it or use the following:

https://www.apksum.com/app/mt-manager/bin.mt.plus

App will offer to update itself if needed.

If you like it you can support the developer by unlocking some APK modding features sending the payment via PayPal

(95% of functions are already available in basic version).

This is my first post on recommending the app - I hope it does not breach forum rules.

Cheers.

I don't know what the hardware differences are between the different carriers' models. Can I use either of the bootloader-unlockable/rootable variants (Sprint or T-Mo) on Verizon?

Failing that, has anyone started a bounty to get Verizon rooted and/or bootloader-unlocked?
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] filthyfnj24:
I started one for Att but have since given up and switched to Sprint. So far I regret nothing. I guess being the two biggest carriers Att and Verizon have a little more push on what manufacturers can and can't do.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the T-Mobile model will work if you're lucky/patient enough to get it unlocked.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Tidbits:
From looking at the spec sheets only the Verizon version will work on Verizon. All the other versions doesn't support band 13 by model numbers that in itself gives Verizon the power to block it even if you hack to unlock band 13.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] 47th_Ronin:
Freaking Verizon really pisses me off, because I'm kinda stuck with them...

I've been with them for about 11 or 12 years or so and I'm grandfathered in on a very old unlimited data plan that's pretty cheap by today's standard and this being a flagship phone and all...

Anyway I had the pixel XL first and returned it because even it was locked down and got the z2 force just because of the moto mods.

Yeah VZW kinda sux...
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Tidbits:
The problem is OEMs. They don't want to put in band 13 on all their devices. If they did then Verizon has to comply with Block C rules. Since OEMs don't want to pay for licensing and put in code that Verizon has to open source. They would rather have Verizon pay for it then that comes with restrictions.

It will be SIM unlocked BUT you will have to pick a carrier and it will have the carrier goodies built in. There's no unlocked one without the carrier bloat and built in features. You have to pick Verizon to get it on Verizon iirc, but anywhere you buy the Verizon version it's unlocked anyway.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] jdrch:
Ah OK. I just ordered one from Best Buy due to their $200 off offer which makes the phone $550something in total payments. That, IMO, makes it the best value for money right now.

Best bet is go to Walmart and buy a cheap prepaid phone. Test it out where you travel a lot. Make some calls do some data. If everything is legit switch to T-Mobile if not you are not out much. That's what I did and I am glad i did. Saved myself $150 A month AND I can choose any device I want.
