[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android0374:
I have installed google apps including playstore on my fire HD, but some games are on the Google play store but not on the amazon AppStore. Top eleven is one of them. When I go to watch videos or download apps to get more tokens when playing top eleven on my Fire HD it always goes by default straight to the amazon AppStore and I am unable to do anything. Is there a way around this without waiting for root and custom rom to be announced?

Cheers guys

Anyone?

[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] eTaurus:
Hi!

Today my SD card died and took some pictures with it to the grave, fortunately nothing very important. It may not have been the most expensive card, but it was a fast one and I used it as internal storage. It didn't show any signs of deterioration before it died. I tried to read the card with my PC and two tablets but none of my devices is able to even see the card.

Before buying a new SD card I want to ask a few things:

Does the HTC 10 have more problems with SD cards than other phones in your opinion?

Should I use my new card as internal storage again or do you recommend to use it as external storage?

Is it worthwhile to buy an expensive card? I laid my eyes on this one: SDSQXCG-064G-GN6MA (SanDisk Extreme PRO microSDXC Memory Card Plus SD Adapter up to 100 MB/s, Class 10, U3, V30, A1 - 64 GB). It costs about 50€.

I hope that you want to share your thoughts with me.

Regards,

Benjamin
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] voxibanez:
If the card was inexpensive and fast, I would think that the compromise made was on build quality/reliability. Using the card as internal storage will wear on the sdcard more than using it as external storage (more reads/writes, more heat) because it will store apps and app data on the sd card.

I don't think the HTC 10 has a problem with sd cards, I haven't heard this issue come up before.

If you have enough space for apps on the internal storage, I would recommend keeping the sd card as external storage.

However, if you still need to use a card as internal storage, you definitely want to get a more expensive card.

Sandisk extreme pro is a good choice because it's made for use with devices like GoPros that do constant writing for extended periods of time, meaning that they can handle the heat that builds up when constantly writing to the sd card.

Sometimes it could really just be pure chance, maybe you got a bad card that died early, but I definitely think it would have lasted longer as external storage.

I'd be interested to know if anyone else has had a similar problem with any phone with an sd card as internal storage.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] donkeykong1:
The thing is - current sd card technology is not suitable for adoptable storage. Multiple read write proceses are killing memory cards. So, until someone makes a card that can take the beating of multiple read write proceses, just use your card as it's ment to be used - as a removable storage and you'll be just fine [emoji6]
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] eTaurus:
Thank you both for your well formulated and competent response.

I've taken all these points into consideration when I chose to use my first SD card as internal storage. I really would like to know if a high quality card could last the expected lifetime of my HTC 10 when using it as internal storage. I wanted to avoid the limitations Google imposed on write access to the external card but when I saw the limitations of the internal storage solution I was unsure if it was a good decision.

It's good to hear that you do not have the experience that the HTC 10 has a problem with SD cards. With that information in mind I can buy an expensive SD card with good conscience.

Let's hope that more users are going to share their opinion with us.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] keinengel:
I've just sent back my second SanDisk Extreme PRO card in 18 months. The first one stopped working after just 4 months in the HTC 10, the second one a few weeks ago. The circumstances were identical, I wrote larger amounts of data in a short time and the phone started saying that the card has to be formatted. I could use a reader connected to my laptop to get most of my data back, but the phone insisted on a format. I'm not sure if it was the SanDisk cards or the phone, either way, I ordered a Samsung card this time. Luckily amazon.de is extremely customer friendly and just gave me my money back in both cases.

Guys, are any of you using Spotify? I have consistently had microSD cards die after downloading songs for offline use i.e. two phones and three different microSD cards.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] bopsch:
I use a Samsung evo card as removable storage since January, never had any problems with it. They are a bit more expensive, but it is worth it in my opinion. I use it mainly for Spotify and Netflix downloads as well as pictures (wallpapers) and ringtones... Don't use a rather inexpensive card as adoptable storage, since they are too slow. Or even expensive cards for that matter ;) In a few years, sd cards will be fast enough, but not today. Also, I fail to see a practical use for using the card as adoptable storage as of right now since 32 gb are plenty of space for apps :)
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] eTaurus:
I did not know that it is possible to tell the Spotify app to use external storage. Will try when I get my new card.

I'm going to buy a card produced by a reputable company this time, for sure. But I thought that cards with the A1 specification (Application performance class] would be fast enough for use as adopted storage. But you are right, 32 Gb is a lot of space for apps.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] bopsch:
Actually, if Spotify recognises your sd card as removable storage, it even is the default setting ;)

I've used Samsung evo and Sandisk Ultra Extreme and the both failed a short time after downloading Spotify songs!
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] adibadi:
I've had a Transcend 64GB card fail after a few months. It was inserted as external storage and I was able to recover its contents on a PC. I was able to put it back in the phone without formatting it, just tried a few times until eventually it worked.

It happened when it was very hot outside, not sure if this is related or not. I wonder how many failed cards are failing during hot weather, during heavy phone use, or in hot climate areas.

I've switched to a Samsung 128GB evo plus now, u3 speed, so far so good. Fingers crossed. Judging by this thread though, it does seem that this phone kind of eats through SD cards.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] eTaurus:
This is precisely what I wanted to know in this thread. Before buying my first card for the HTC 10 I read a number of threads that suggested this phone specifically has problems with cards bigger than 64 GB. But the reaction to my thread doesn't seem to be so hysterical to me.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Dresene:
I been using a Toshiba Exceria M302 128GB as external storage since the phone first launched and it hasn't failed on me yet, touchwood. Although I only been using up to around 50GB usage, I have re-download my Spotify collection a couple times.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] tokuzumi:
The SD card in my HTC 10 is going on 15 months old, and it's still ticking. I have never used it as adaptive storage. It just stores photos taken on the camera (which are backed up to Google Photos). Some games offer to save data onto the SD card, so I do that as well. It's a Samsung 64GB PRO (class 10).

Not sure if the UHS-1/3 cards will fare better.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattucf:
Has anyone gotten AptX to work with their Nexus 6p? I know that Google has not officially added support for AptX to the Nexus 6p within Android Oreo, but they did add this support for the Pixel phones. I also read various articles on how people have been able to enable AptX on developer preview builds of Oreo (for the Nexus 6p) and in some cases within LineageOS. A few weeks ago I tried all the methods listed online, but the information is sparse and it wasn't successful.

1) Has anyone gotten AptX to work within any version of Android on the Nexus 6P?

2) Has anyone been able to flash the necessary blob or drivers to enable AptX within any Rom of Oreo for the Nexus 6p?

If you have this working and could write me a step by step, I'd appreciate it immensely !
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jijzietdezenaam:
I don't have a pair of AptX headphones, otherwise I'd like to test it out, with the new Oreo rom from SuperXE, I remember seeing an option for bluetooth codecs and I saw AptX and AptX HD in the list?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CZ Eddie:
Oreo brings an aptX codec selector option to Developer Settings.

But it does not work on the 6P as there is no aptX codec installed.

I know, because I'm an aptX enthusiast (see my signature) and I just tested it a few minutes ago with my Velodyne aptX headphones.

aptX does not get engaged, so I didn't even bother looking at the logcats since those won't indicate anything without aptX engaging.

I'll probably try hacking aptX into my new/used 6P that I just bought today.

But I don't think it'll work, since recent aptX success stories have all been with Lineage OS 14+ ROM's and I plan to stay with Marshmallow.

But I'll give it a shot over the next week and let ya'll know what I find out.

I'd really like to get atpX working on my Nougat ROM...
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CZ Eddie:
Yeah, it works fine on my Nougat Resurrection Remix.

Just unzip the attached zip.

Copy the two lib files to /system/vendor/lib

Make them rw-r-r- for permissions.

Reboot and you should be good to go.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orangekid:
Bad ass man!

I am on RR too so this is cool, after this the headphones just pick up the codec automatically?

edit: would be good to make a flashable zip too.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CZ Eddie:
Yep, just reboot and you're done. aptX compatible receiver devices (such as headphones) will automatically connect via aptX now.

You know, I've had the worst luck trying to create flashable zips.

The last time any of mine worked was on Marshmallow.

I gave up on them. But if someone points me to a working flashable zip that puts items in /system then I'll mod it for aptx.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orangekid:
I have always just taken an existing zip and modded the contents honestly. But this is fine too, not hard to manually add the libs.

[MENTION=4274380]CZ Eddie[/MENTION]

How do you know for sure if your phone is using apt-x codec or not when connected to headphones? Is there an app or something that can tell?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CZ Eddie:
My headset flashes blue a certain amount of times (four) if aptX is online.

But you can also run a logcat. Connect to the headset, then play some music (or aptX won't start). Then stop the logcat and ctrl+f it for "aptx".

If you see it mentioned anywhere at all, then it's working. :good:

Sorry for the dumb question but is it possible to push these files via ADB without Magisk?

Tested this on Nexus6P with Lg tone Pro using AptX.

[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FireGuy0723:
This thought never occurred to me about the temp of my phone until I started running it without the case and could actually feel how hot it's getting.

Seems like whenever I'm using the phone to browse Google or Facebook (not official Facebook app) my phone will regularly reach 92 or 93 degrees. If I am updating apps from the play store or using Google Maps navigation it will hit 104 easily. Highest I've ever seen it was 109.

I don't use the turbo charger, I use a wireless charging pad (non fast charge). I've never looked at the temps while it's charging, but I know it does get pretty damn hot while it's charging.

Is this normal? Without the case on it's almost uncomfortable to hold the phone. Never realized my Turbo 2 could double as a hand warmer/fire starter for the winter months!

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] edios123:
My phone recently started acting weird, randon crashes and reboots. It was on stock MiUI rooted. Unofficial bootloader unlock.

So I thought to flash RR rom, but it didn't work. It won't boot. The thing was that the bootloader unlock was not properly done, but whatever I try to do, it can't be done (which was done before with ease - unofficially).

So I decided to go back to stock MiUI and request for official unlock. But this thing won't even boot now! I tried 3 different versions of MiUI out of which 2 were used before and worked perfectly fine.

I tried the latest 7.9.7 also. Does not boot. Shows Mi logo for a few seconds and it shuts down.

I can boot to fastboot, recovery and EDL. But that's all. Won't boot to Android.

Used Mi Flash different versions too. Shows flash successful everytime.

Is my phone dead? Or any hope of reviving it? Please help.

I had this issue when I accidentally didn't flash LazyFlasher after installing a Marshmallow ROM.

Don't worry, its pretty easy to recover from this. Download the Global Stable ROM (The global dev didn't work for me, somehow) and MiFlash tool. Flash the rom and wait. The first boot takes about 15 mins, be patient. If that doesn't work, try with the some other stock ROM.

Also, are you making sure that you're selecting "flash all" in the miflash tool?

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Gurkirat_Singh:
IK this is an old post but that is a such a stupid advice. It takes 5-15 minutes max. Keeping your device on for that long will only drain it's battery more. Rather you than just forget you have turned on your device. But don't forget to keep it plugged in so it keeps charging at the same time.

But this will only affect the device in a negative way as it will only get hotter by every minute. So it's better to turn off the device for some time by disconnecting the battery or if possible in some other simple way. And try booting it later and see if it boots again in 5-10 minutes, otherwise you have some other problem.

[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] pjmays1726:
It seems that after flashing the Nexus ROM for my Huawei Ascend XT, that my phone started to "lose" the SIM. Its been over the past few days, without warning shutting off phone calls and telling me to "INSERT SIM". The SIM is present, and I can't seem to find any issues with any of the apps. If I restart my phone, the phone cycles through "emergency calls only" to No service, then it finds service [ATT] and if I'm home it will find the MicroCell that I have. It will work for awhile and then suddenly needs me to INSERT SIM again. This is frustrating.

AS well, I've tried to upgrade to the B170 update through ATT and it won't do it....
