[Xiaomi Mi Note 2  Questions & Answers] slyscorpion:
I am not going to dissuade you from trying but I wouldn't try opening that can of worms and just get one of the newer Xiaomis that have global band support out of the box like the Mi Mix 2 or the Mi A1 (check the specs for both devices on gsmarena).
[Xiaomi Mi Note 2  Questions & Answers] BiGGTex:
Mi A1

I am trying to find hard specifics on the Mi A1, as far as US Bands. We are about to get the Mi Note 2 Global, but my gawd is it hard to get Global ROMs from the Chinese sites. They can't seem to get shipments in and it's wait, wait, wait....

Been looking on the web for Mi A1 bands and I am under the impression it won't have several bands needed for Verizon/TMBL/AT&T....

Hello, i post this here since i can't post on development related forums because of the spam protection (can't post on development forums if we don't have enough posts)

my problem is that i'm trying to build lineage os for my phone (Archos helium 50 plus) from this official tutorial http://www.lineageosrom.com/2017/01/how-to-build-lineageos-rom-for-any.html the problem is that at the extract-files.sh step, i have this problem

./extract-files.sh
mkdir -p ../../../vendor/broadcom/manta/proprietary
adb pull /system/vendor/firmware/bcm2079x_firmware.ncd ../../../vendor/broadcom/manta/proprietary/bcm2079x_firmware.ncd
adb: error: remote object '/system/vendor/firmware/bcm2079x_firmware.ncd' does not exist

i've looked at the files contained in my phone from a dump of my system partition and it seems that the phone doesn't even contain a firmware directory in vendor

so i wonder what i should do at this step

if there is the need of things from the source code, i have the source code of the kernel of a phone with the exact same SoC (MT6735P) containing a vendor tree and device tree too but with sources instead of built drivers

Thanks a lot for the reply
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] strongst:
Ok, since you have unlocked bootloader etc. there's only minor things to do.

You should monitor your device behavior and installed apps like mentioned. Wakelocks are the main reason for draining. Also games, GPS, location services. Did you make use of them? How often?
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] Vampire:
I am running on stock android

these are the applications i use
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] strongst:
Oh yes, Facebook and other messengers are known to cause wakelocks. Also other apps where I don't know the name you've installed. You need to monitor them with the on-board android battery screen to find the culprit. It's hard and takes some time. Less apps, more screen on time and battery life.

[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] strongst:
That's not that bad! I mean, you have 7h phone idle time with 40min sot. That is OK. The problem is more likely that due to weak(yellow) or no cellular signal as seen in the screenshot. Also paste the battery screen like mine

Which Phone Are You Using
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] strongst:
Xt1642, latest nougat firmware, RR rom. I guess it's because of the bad signal, cause I have nearly completely green bars as you see. But as already mentioned, your sot of 40mins is OK for 7 hours of idle. If you traveling alot between cell towers(roaming) which drains alot, then this is the main reason for your battery drain(but it's really minor :good:).

Anyone know if Samsung will bring the keyboard cover to North America?

It's on the global site - but no info:

http://www.samsung.com/global/galaxy/galaxy-note8/accessories/

It's on the Korean site for sale though:

http://www.samsung.com/sec/mobile-accessories/keyboard-cover-cn950-galaxy-note-8/
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] romevi:
Man alive, I've been looking high and dry for this. No idea why it's not for sale yet in the States. Been wanting this case as much as the Note8 itself.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] MoreBeer:
Ditto. I've had this for my last 2 Sammys (Note7, S8) and will buy this the second it is available. Great case and the keyboard is nice to use on the train.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] jooniloh:
You can get this right now for $70 on ebay (there's exactly 1 listing of it), but it's a korean model with dual kr/en labeling on the keys.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] jenellej:
I wonder if this would "clip on" to other 3rd party cases (i.e. UAG, Spigen, etc..

That is very cool. I've never been good at typing on virtual keyboards. This would be great to have.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] swaters3:
I ordered one thanks for the tip. Should realize not to limit myself to Amazon. I did Google it but ebay listing didn't come up. I saw two listings both had English keyboard one said in the description dual English /Korean. I'll keep everyone posted.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] jooniloh:
just checked ebay again. that second listing wasn't up at the time I posted so it's fairly new. post some pics when you get it :P
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] Limeybastard:
Do they scratch the glass?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] swaters3:
I ordered and asked them about Korean. They sent a picture and yes it does have English/Korean. I'd rather not have the English shrunk to accommodate the Korean which is useless for me however it seems to me that it's not coming out here in the USA. I wasn't following the s8 when it came out, was the keyboard case released with it amongst its accessories or did it come later?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] owlovers:
Is the keyboard cover heavy? And will it scratch the bottom of the phone a lot?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] krumbs:
Looks interesting. Was a huge fan of the hardware keyboard on the HP Pre3.

About this Note 8 keyboard, does it work well if you have put on a tempered glass screen protector?

Also, are you forced to use the case that comes with it, or can you use it with third-party cases of similar thickness?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] swaters3:
Based in the reviews I've watched it looks well made not heavy and will not scratch phone. I'll update when I get it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] swaters3:
I just got it and they keys feel great. It will only work with the case it comes with. It won't scratch the screen and probably will work with screen protector. One flaw with Korean is the period is a dollar sign so you have to press and hold for a second and the it's a period. It's not backlit they should at least made it glow in the dark. I'll probably memorize it soon enough. Size wise it is a little smaller then the on screen smallest size Samsung keyboard. Buttons have real nice click and feel. No cursor arrows.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] swaters3:
I figured out how to fix the period issue. So working perfect. Definitely could use backlight but hopefully soon will learn to type without looking.

hello there! already received my order of the samsung note 8 keyboard cover, i was very excited to try it on the phone, and TADA, the screen doesnt resize to fit the keyboard case, after trying it a couple of times and researching a bit further on the net, seems like this keyboard cover is incompatible with specific variants of note 8 like the SM-N9500 and SM-N9508(hongkong and china variants), which i currently have, total bummer!﻿

can you guys clarify your specific variants of galaxy note 8 for research purposes?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] fiver5:
I'll answer the question for him, since I spent about 5 minutes on the same thing. Love when people post to a forum and say "it's fixed" with no details...

Long press the "." key while in any text input field. An character menu will display at the bottom of the screen. Select the "." and it will be changed to that from then on.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] charmz2k2:
NOOOOOOOO!!!!

Seriously?

I was thinking about getting this case for my 9500...

Why would it not work with it?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] stormrain:
Just got this case. It is a nice case, the keyboard fits perfectly and it does not scratch the phone at all. When you put it on it instantly resizes the screen and the typing is effortless with it. One big plus is that the keys are clicking perfectly, reminding you of the good old days with phones that had premium quality physical keyboards.

BUT...

It is useless for some languages (like mine). Greek language is not supported, thus I'm stuck with a useless case :lol: Thankfully the back cover of the case is very nice and slim, but waaaay too expensive for having nothing more than that.

So if anyone from a non english country wants me to check if their language is supported, please let me know :)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] vndnguyen:
So what is the keyboard layout?

I mean it is English only or Korean/English keyboard?

And is it QWERTY or QWERTZ layout?

Can you show a picture of it?

Thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] stormrain:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/deu9uok994n5exo/θηκη.jpg?dl=0

It is QWERTY, this is a photo of it.

The problem is not the layout, but the supported languages.

You can have English/Korean/French/etc but not Greek. It's probably because the Greek language has some special characters or something. So, when I have the Greek language as a first language in Samsung (software) Keyborad and then put the Keyboard Cover, I have a pop-up that says "Greek language is not supported".

ΕDIT: This is the ss of the pop-up menu and an ss of some of the supported languages. If I am not mistaken the Ukranian language is not supported either mate.

Update: It works! Have a Spanish Note 8 -- cheaper than I've found in the UK, did not find any difference aside from when you turn on, the default language is Spanish and not English.

Hi man,

what about Italian language?

Is that supported?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] rad30n:
Hello everyone!

[IMG="https://i.imgur.com/JN6Jl9kl.jpg"]https://i.imgur.com/JN6Jl9kl.jpg[/IMG]

Yes, Italian should work fine. I write in Portuguese (and English) daily and it seems to work in a similar way.

As for hebrew, it seems to work, but since I don't really know the language it's harder for me to evaluate, but I can definitely write something with it. The one thing I noticed with Hebrew is that the usual shift + space shortcut that switches to another language (e.g. I had English, Portuguese, Italian and Hebrew) selected did not work, so it was a bit awkward to switch back quickly (but there's other ways to do it, the easiest one seems to be to remove the hardware keyboard and use the soft keyboard to switch the language back, and then replace the hardware keyboard).

I plan to rock the keyboard until Blackberry decides to do a successor to either the Priv or the Key2, so fire away with any more questions if I can help :)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] eske.rahn:
If anyone in interested in how this actually works, I took one completely apart. Images can be found here https://eskerahn.dk/wordpress/?p=2284
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] Aviv:
Wow, this is super helpful. Thank you so much! I'm dying to find something faster than my good old Priv, that's not the awful key2.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] rad30n:
I understand the feeling. I was pretty disappointed with the Key2 when I played with it a bit at an event: it's an OK phone, but coming from the Priv with its gorgeous OLED screen, the Key2 is such a huge downgrade.

I had exactly the same problem as you did: my Priv was unbearably slow at common tasks, so as much as I've loved the phone, I got frustrated with it almost daily.

Nevertheless, I'll share that although I'm pretty happy with my Note 8, the keyboard is definitely a big step down from the Priv, so be ready/set your expectations for that. E.g. everything else will be better than the Priv, minus the keyboard, which will be measurably worse.

It's possible we'll have another landscape slider soon: https://www.readyfx.com/ so I'm also keeping an eye out for that.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] Aviv:
I don't expect the note keyboard to be as good as the Priv's, and it hurts enought to give up the shortcuts and the capacitive actions. However, the Priv is near unusable - google maps takes over two minutes to load sometimes. I want a brand name phone that has a camera at least as good as the Priv's, with a reasonable (doesn't have to be stellar) physical keyboard. I bought the Key2 and returned it after a day - the screen was just awful and the camera even worse.

I'm sure I can adjust to the Samsung keyboard and it's certainly much better than typing on screen (something I was never willing to do besides a year with a nexus 4).
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] rad30n:
I think the biggest limitation on the Priv is the RAM -- Android 6 + the basic Blackberry stuff doesn't help, and modern apps are so memory hungry that the phone basically gets unusable. I had **exactly** the same experience on my Priv. I remember one day where I was driving, hearing an ebook and routing using google maps and someone called me and the phone basically froze the screen and rang without letting me pick up.

So TL;DR yeah, if you do go for the Note 8, please share your experience! :)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] Aviv:
I got my note and the keyboard cover, and it's fantastic. I'm still not completely adjusted, but I expect to return to full speed compared to the Priv.

The advantage is that taking the keyboard off gives you a lot of screen. Also, having the keyboard in front really improves the device's protection. The note 8 is very fragile - being very heavy and covered in glass all around. The case is a perfect balance for me between adequate protection and minimal bulk. It fits well inside my pocket and in my hand.

The cons are the loss of backlight and the capacitive touchpad. Part of being so quick with the Priv was swiping to complete words. The samsung keyboard is much better at adding words to the dictionary.

Another con, to me, is that this keyboard is very loud compared to the Priv. It is much more clicky though, if that's your thing.

Finally, the keyboard case makes the phone act a little weird at times. I think there's enough space left on the screen to allow multi window, but it's blocked. Other limitations appear throughout the interface - you can't purchase or apply themes when the keyboard is on (!??!), and the worst part is the camera - having the keyboard on, limits the camera to auto mode at a 1:1 ratio. There's absolutely no reason for that.

All in all, I'm happy with this device. I would have liked an S8/S9 more for a smaller size, but the Note 8 was the best deal of them all and has more ram compared to the S8, so I'm quite happy. All I wish for is that I don't drop and break it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] gatsbythegerbil:

I think you can configure samsung keyboard special characters somewhere in the settings, to appear at different positions, at least in my hungarian firmware you find it

i have another issue, maybe you solved it already:

The Onscreen keyboard looks different from the layout of the case... how to get the onscreen keyboard to match the layout of the case... i post a photo so that you understand... look for example the position of the enter key
