[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] quadcrap1:
I have discovered that if I'm in a location with mediocre signal (but WITH reception), that if I hold the phone, the signal (bars) will often drop to 0, and carrying out a phone conversation is near impossible. But if I put the phone down (put it on speaker), the bars/reception come back and I can carry out the conversation.

The effect is pretty bad, sometimes going from 3 bars to 0.

I'm on Verizon.

Anyone else experiencing this?
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] frhoward:
I notice this from time to time as well. I dont know if its more sensitive to certain bands or what but I dont see it all the time but I have seen it more than I would like. Thought it was just me and my service.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] flakko86:
Yeah i noticed that as well. I leave !my phone alone overnight, I get "green" reception. Once I start using it, the reception gets temperamental and it drops to yellow, sometimes red
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] rednav:
I have the same issue. It seems more prominent when I grip the top edges of the phone. Lose significant signal on both WiFi and cellular. Reminds me of antenna gate of the iPhone.

Apple -> "Grip Gate"
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] jgracz01:
Ive noticed that the bars go to nothing when im on WIFI with WIFI calling enabled. No matter how good or bad the signal is where i am. Once i kill WIFI, the bars jump right back up. Im assuming this is a power saver feature. I dont remember my V20 doing this, but I do recall my 6P dropping the bars by half
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Caius_Marius:
Hi. I'm having a question before buying a note 7 if someone can help : knowing that it's still on stock ROM but updates were disabled vie package disabler so battery still at 100% will I be able to do the same after the phone will be restored as original by the seller ? Will I be able to disable the updates if I will find an old version of package disabler? Or I 'll be force to install a custom ROM ? Thx
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] benyou54:
Hi.

You can install the shield from the Alliance Note 7 or you can install an app that don't need root to disable packages...

Merci!

I just followed the solid explorer method and is working fine to stop the update.

So for now Im fine with it, discovering my new phone but I wont stay too long on stock 6.0.1. I guess there is a ROM with nougat ported from FE that I ll try someday. Can you confirm that is working fine? I dont care about iris, I wear glasses:D

Coming from note 5 the 7 is really nice, great phone that Samsung shouldnt kill. I compared it in a store with the 8 which is way too big although I am 6ft tall so I ll stay with 7 while it lasts. If FE will get oreo maybe someone will ported here.

A+

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Michaelandhistab:
I'm in Hong Kong right now and would like to be able to use VOLTE. Both models are on sd835, but the g9550 has 2 extra gigabyte of ram and dual SIM, also the modem might be different too. So I'm not too sure if this is possible.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] pocho_dobo:
seems no one has answered you as of yet. I am currently investigating to see if some parameters of devices rom could be edited. Not sure as of yet, but, will have an answer for you soon enough. will keep in touch.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] MeltdownSpectre:
Definitely not possible, completely different partition tables and the Chinese variant has some extra CDMA and LTE band support to be used in China only.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] pocho_dobo:
Actually, China used the GL CP for an earlier firmware it has. Ive been seeing a lot of "cant do's," on this forum and am amazed at how people has set everything to be IMPOSSIBLE. I and another person thats part of these forums have been secretly investigating and am coming up with ideas on how to do things. you are correct as China uses only 2g and 3g on their basebands but are incorrect as to it not being able to work. Research and dig and dig and dig and you will then find the answer. And although my posts and thanks are low does not mean i am a noob. Name change to create a better name for myself with more logic and optimism to contribute what others may feel wont happen. Thank you and have a good evening and its not an attack but a formal gesture to do a bit more research before claiming not possible= impossible.

To answer this question, "YES." Yes it is possible to flash the US version AP, CP( it works but has its issues and wouldn't recommend it) CSC should be able to install. !!NOTE!! Please do not attempt to flash BL as it has different settings scripted into it such as ram, storage,etc. G9550/128gb6gb ram G955U/64gb/4gb ram.

Also Note that if G9550 with G955U firmware boots properly, it has been said to be a bit choppier than normal. What is recommended is using the G955U1 firmware. Also, same as above is ONLY able to be flashed and updates with either version have to be done manually, I, have not tried this myself as i am in the process of this attempt. It has been discussed in foreign forums and has been done.

Please do not attempt if you are unable to come out of a brick or soft brick. I am in no way responsible if you mess up your phone. Good luck
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] pocho_dobo:
tried flashing through normal odin and a no go. trying the modified Odin,but, before i do further readings say the AP and others have to be slightly modded. will look into this more once i finish up here.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] ChildishGambino3005:
Volte probably won't work if the carrier only supports g9550 though, yeah? Would probably give it a go on the weekend. Cheers.
[Nexus 6P General] wabmorgan:
In this article about Google and Huawei ending RMA's for the 6p (unconfirmed) they refer to the 6p as an "unmitigated disaster."

I don't get this description. Admittedly, I have not had my 6p that long and it was a new purchase from Amazon but thus far I have been very happy with it. My only complaint is I wish they would have went with a slightly larger screen size, perhaps 6 or 6.25.

[HTC Startrek] DaMilky:
I recently upgraded to the new WM6 ROM, for the StarTrek and now I can't use PIE or any other web browser. There were no ATT factory settings with this ROM so I had to enter all the GPRS and Proxy settings manually. I looked them up and entered them exactly as they were written and I still can't use it. PIE just says connecting then Locating for a while and then says: "The page cannot be found. check the name and try again." It can connect (although other apps still can't access the internet) so I think the problems with the proxy. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] tarun0:
What's the temperature of the phone while charging? Mine gets heated to 42-degree Celsius. While charging, it only had both the SIMS and nothing else - Wifi Bluetooth etc. - on.

Also, CPU-Z's thermal tab, the chg_temp (whatever it signifies!) value goes as high as 75!

Are these temperatures too bad for the phone? What are the temperatures of your phones while charging?
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] Raj.S:
Don't use it while charging bro because of charging and metal body. It's also decrease your battery life... Leave it to charge bro!?
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] tarun0:
That's the last resort to switch it off while charging. :P If you too have the same model, could you confirm if yours gets this much heated as well?
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] Raj.S:
Yeah bro its does if i am using it while charging + wifi+ browsing..

But if i will let it charge with wifi off it doesn't want even a bit!
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] tarun0:
I too don't use it while charging with wifi etc switched off. It still heats. I thought the problem was with my phone only, so I even got it replaced from Amazon but it's the same with this new phone as well. :/

[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] sopan93:
It is normal for the handset to heat that much while turbo charge.It has metal body.I figure out that when i charge my moto g5s with other charger it doesn't heat that much but when i switch to turbo charger which comes up with the package it heats up the phone considerably.

I tried flashing the Chinese TWRP and using the Root Device option under Advancer, per https://xdaforums.com/android/general/tutorial-root-leeco-s3-t3531618#post73852345. No errors, but I do not have root.

I tried downloading the AIO tool found at https://xdaforums.com/le-2/development/tool-tool-one-driversunlocktwrpfactory-t3669432. Installed, phone connected, but there is no root option.

Is 23S simply unrootable?

My Samsung Tab 3 7.0 recently turned off and won't turn on. So I opened the case, disconnected the battery cable let it sit for a while and then reconnected it. Without turning it on i let it charge, and not it shows 100% charge.

I tried doing all different reset combination but nothing is turning on the tablet. Pressing the home button will display the battery percentage at 100% but that's about it.

Is there anything I can do to turn it on? I am trying to do a factory reset on the tablet but it seems it needs to be on to use ADB.

[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] McLovin01:
well that's a smart one, i'll do it. however i don't have this issue with whatsapp only, so i need a general solution
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] _Frostplexx_:
What other apps do you have ? I think it works with every app that has widgets. I suggest that you make a page with all the widget for the apps.

For me the problem sovled after i debranded my EVA-AL10 to L-09 and flashed BluWei. So I think the problem only existed with the Chinese Rom.

Other methods:

Try Settings>Apps>Settings>Special Access>Ignore Battery Optimization. On the dropdown select all apps and search Whatsapp and click on it. Then select allow. Now it should run in the background.

The last thing that i remember doing is turning Whatsapp (or any other app) in a system app. You need root and i used the app "/system/app mover":

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.j4velin.systemappmover

Just click on the app you want to convert and press ok. Then reboot your phone. The only problem i had was that the /system partition wasn't very big so i could only convert like one or two apps (this changes with different phone/system versions)

If this doesn't work I would recommend installing an other rom like Magic Rainbow, Moonlight, Bluwei (all emui based) if its a big problem for you

In the Camera app, the switch button allow me to switch through the 3 cameras (the 2 rear ones and the selfie one). However, in some 3rd party app (like Snapchat), trying to switch result in switching between the 2 rear cameras only, but it works as expected on some other (Messenger for instance).

[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mega Maniac:
Hey,

So I have a 2017 16GB Shield TV. I have been attempting to use it as a freeview (UK) DVR with a HDHR network tuner. However there is a bug in their app where the TV crashes and the record 'engine' no longer works for a certain amount of time.

Its a bit of an odd set up in which you have to purchase the DVR service then go to a webpage on your network where you 'register' the hardware tuner with the DVR service, you also enable record service in the apps settings. The app should then detect that the tuner has the record service enabled and you have a DVR. Why they don't just have a paid app for the DVR service is beyond me.

Anyway - I'm trying to diagnose this crash and whats wrong with it. My initial idea was to find the record service and see if I could give it a different priority or if it was being killed for some reason then to prevent this... however this seems to be a dead end as I don't see any advice about this being possible.

I'm rooted so can use rooted apps if this helps me, just looking for a bit of direction as Silicon Dust (makers of HDHR) are a bit tardy in their fixes.
