[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] LostinCanada:
Thanks [MENTION=2542694]maheshhtc[/MENTION]. Now I am in an argument with the Ebay seller, who is claiming it is Exynos version. I tried calling Samsung but they only give information for the phone sold in the country you are in. I did find out from Samsung in Hong Kong that the "Hong Kong version" is actually Snapdragon: http://www.samsung.com/hk_en/support/model/SM-N9500ZVGTGY#downloads. On this site: https://www.techwalls.com/samsung-galaxy-note-8-sm-n950-model-number-differences/ I had referenced N950FD which is Exynos, but didn't notice the seller's ad that it says F950FD and I can't find any reference to this model online, except for within his ad.

So many variations of this phone! Is this an "undiscovered" variation or a typo on his part?

If anyone is looking at buying the phone in the Ebay ad let me warn you the seller says he takes returns, but now is claiming I must pay him the 12% deposit he paid to the Hong Kong Samsung supplier. I hope this isn't going to turn into an Ebay dispute - the seller has 100% good feedback so I wasn't expecting any problems. :(

******UPDATE:

Well, it is now officially a dispute/investigation. The model number in the ad doesn't match either Samsung HK, or the Asian version I am really after (I think!): SM-N950FD which should be Exynos, 256GB, Duos, and I've heard mixed rumours re unlocked bootloader. So the ad is either a typo, new variant or fraud. I guess I will know in a few days. Ebay says they will support the return in any event because the seller never put any stipulations re returns in the ad. BUYER BEWARE!

I will post any updates as I get them.

In the meantime, please advise if my desired phone, in Orchid Grey, is available to purchase anywhere!

Hi Ihughes, the link you posted is definitely for a Snapdragon version - looks like HK phone: http://www.samsung.com/hk_en/support/model/SM-N9500ZVGTGY#downloads Check the page, lists the model number as N9500

---------- Post added at 01:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:06 PM ----------

Hi Tonyspurs,

Thank you but that is a single sim version. I want Dual Sim, 256GB (internal), Exynos, unlocked bootloader. Sigh so far doesn't exist apparently.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] LostinCanada:
*****UPDATE:

After several interesting communications back and forth with seller, the seller finally refunded the money for the phone, but not the shipping. Another call to Ebay finally took care of that - but I will still lose some money on the currency conversion. :( Well, that is officially the most money I have (almost) spent on a phone before... LOL. I was disgusted with Note 5 specs and then foiled by the Note 7 debacle - it's just plain mean to be teased with this elusive Note 8 and not be able to actually buy one!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Emiloser:
It now makes sense to me why he yelled at me when I enquired whether his model was Exynos or not (he told me it was Snapdragon, but a day after yelling at me, advised he could get the Exynos variants in but not in Orchid Grey.) I think you have saved me some trouble - so thank you :) Just from my experience with the Note 7 debacle, 100% positive feedback doesn't mean anything - my seller got all his negative feedback deleted and I had to twist many arms to get my refund.

Please let me know if you stumble across Dual Sim, 128/256GB, Exynos Note 8 in Orchid Grey as that's the one I'm holding out for also :) Good luck!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] LostinCanada:
Wow! I wish I had had that information to give Ebay to add to my complaint. The seller kept changing his story - including that he had told me he was selling two versions (he hadn't stated that) and that the version he was selling me was Exynos (in grey!). I see his ad is still up so maybe Ebay hasn't (yet) received enough complaints. If I saved at least one person from getting ripped off then I am glad, but I would have been happier to see the ad pulled.

Likewise if you hear of any leads for same (256GB though). Hopefully [MENTION=2542694]maheshhtc[/MENTION] will pipe up if he/she spots the phone in India this week.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] maheshhtc:
It seems the guy (Kimbi) ebay seller has removed that specific ad where he had mentioned F950FD Dual sim with 256 GB internal memory. Not saying that these people are fraudsters but they take advantage of language problem. Right now 9500 dual sim with 256GB memory is available but snapdragon version. I think 27th there will be 128GB release & October 5th for 256GB exynos version.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] LostinCanada:
Interesting - he just updated the ad - I checked it before posting above and it still had the FD version with last revision Sept 15th. In re-checking the revision stats after reading your post it looks like the same ad with title and description changed today. I'm guessing the Ebay complaint had something to do with the revision. At least people will now know what they are getting.

How do you manage to have dual sim + microSD? Very interested by the hack.

Thank you!

Just got a alert to update firmware. Will I lose Root if I Update?

Thanks...
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] jefffisher:
you can't install it if you are rooted, you have to unroot and install stock recovery no twrp for it to work.

it might also lock your bootloader meaning factory reset again to unlock.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] ToTheMacksimum:
Not necessarily. I have an FRD-L04, I was running unlocked bootloader with TWRP and Magisk, rooted on B385. Flashed just the stock b360 recovery through fastboot, and then downloaded the full update package in the updater.

When it booted back up after the update, my bootloader had been locked. I uninstalled Magisk once I got back into Android. All seems to be working so far (except for my finicky SD card reader).
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] shashank1320:
Install stock recovery and proceed with update.

You wont lose root
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] zimmen:
I lost root and got a locked bootloader since the new update (B394)
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] shashank1320:
It was GB update or MBs?

Can root again
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] zimmen:
It was the GB

I downloaded the full package, only way to update for me.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] shashank1320:
Oops then it will restore the recovery, lock the bootloader, remove root
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] zimmen:
Yes, but that was the only way to get the update to install.

Not that I loos so much when I unlock it again, it's only apps they i have to install again.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions & Answers] KingKash420:
Hello all,

I am making this thread because I am having a really strange and frustrating issue that I am hoping can be solved before I am forced to get rid of my phone. I have a factory unlocked SM-G955U running the most current stock software. Basically my issue is my phone randomly mutes my mic during outgoing calls. I can hear the person on the other end but they can't hear me. Sometimes all I have to do is hang up and call back to fix the issue. Other times, the only way for me to fix the issue is for me to restart my phone. Strangely if I hang up and the other person calls ME back, then the problem is instantly solved. I thought this was limited to actual phone calls, but I had the same issue happen today with Whatsapp as well. I can confirm the problem is 100% isolated to OUTGOING calls and has no effect on incoming calls. I would have to assume this issue is software related and not hardware related given the fact this is only happening randomly on outgoing calls.

Ive done all of the basic troubleshooting and even removed my ultra thin phone case with no change in results.

Any help would be much appreciated thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions & Answers] kervol:
Verizon will flash your current unlocked phone

Take your phone to Verizon, they will flash your unlocked phone with their software, it will still be unlocked but you will get voicemail, visual voicemail and wifi calling back because their software has these features activated. I understand you were probably trying to get around their bloatware but the lesser of two evils is apps needed.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] endolith:
I want a way to jot down notes quickly that will be date and time stamped, so I can do things like "started test at 10:32 PM" or "ate x at y at 12:23". Any ideas? Some software dedicated to keeping logs or journals with added features would be best.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] endolith:
There is nothing like this?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] endolith:

I want to just press a button or two and then type in something, and it will be appended to a log file along with a date and time stamp.

I think PocketTime is your best bet. Free, apparently full-featured, but I don't need or want this kind of program, so you'll have to experiment yourself.
[General Topics] Mister_Diamond:
Sometimes, during the day, I set my Phone with Android 7.1.1 to Do Not Disturb mode. However there are some notifications that I don't wanna miss, and I mean that I also want to hear the notification or alarm sound.

So I went into Settings > Applications and for my important apps (Reminder [1] and Whatsapp) I went in notification settings and I enable "override do not disturb" for both apps; furthermore I disabled these apps from battery optimization.

Well: despite the fact that I set these apps to "override do not disturb", when these apps receive/display a notification with a certain sound when DND is active, I only can see them with the LED and I can't hear any sound (but the notification is however displayed also on the lock screen).

So is a matter of no sound played. All is ok when DND is not active.

I miss something or is a know bug?

[1] Reminder app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.arthurivanets.reminder
[General Topics] Mister_Diamond:
Sorry for the noise: I reply to myself, since I found the solution (imho very hidden).

On the DND icon in the bar menu i double clicked and some options appeared: I choosed "Priority only", so the apps which are set to "override do not disturb" now are able to play a sound when the phone is set to DND.

I hope that this solution could be useful to someone.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] AllenLancaster:
Basically I Pre-ordered the Note 8 and got the device on the 19th of september. First few hours with the phone was amazing. As I was upgrading from a note 3. The next day I tried to perform a little photography here and there. I was beyond disaplointed with the results I obtained. In regular light, my photos turned out so saturated and it looks fake//washed out?? The photo is sharp no doubt but the color seems way off compared to real life. It saddens me as I payed so much money for the phone itself. Honestly it feels like I am using a camera from a mid tier samsung phone. I only managed to get a sample photo from my friend's insta account as I formatted my phone in hopes it will fix my problem. The photo itself was shot from my own phone.

The low light photos... Well it looked very grainy and artificial( yeah that's the word). Kinda feels like I am shooting from a phone that was made many years ago aka my note 3.

Battery life on my device is terrible atm, only 2 hours of screen on time and I am left with 35% battery? and from a 100% charge my phone "estimation" is only 10 hours?

In conclusion I really need all of your help to confirm and put in solutions for this issue. Should I bring this up to my Samsung centre or is this just normal?

Ps: I don't have any bright photos as I just reformatted my phone. Oh yeah in yellow light, my camera tends to take it as green?????

Update: I can't post any links ):. Any ideas on how I can display photos?

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] AllenLancaster:
Have been searching Youtube vids for the past few days trying to fix the problem, non could rectify the camera part nor the battery. And no I didn't change anytbing regarding the camera. Everything is on default. Youtubers like Flossy Carter can get up to 13-14 hours estimation and at least and his photo is stunning too. Hopefully samsung can do something for me when I visit the center later.

Did you try this : Screen lock > Register unrecognized finger

and add patern/pin

then go to settings

and don't delete the fingerprints

but remove the screen lock itself

and then add screen lock and register fingerprint
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] nilanko:
Go to twrp. Then enter file manager. Navigate to /data/system/. Now delete the following files:

password.key

pattern.key

locksettings.db

locksettings.db-shm

locksettings.db-wal

This will clear all saved pattern/pin/fingerprints.

You can boot into your system and set them again.

Bro as far as I remember during the compile he used all sources from hriday and pushed it to his own git for Tesla tree ;) :laugh:

Now, after say 5-6 minutes of listening to music, my HTC hangs and theres no music output. if i just let it be, the Gene restarts.

If i press the volume buttons and the on/off switch, 5 minutes later it comes back to life.

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] tgtrottier:
After flashing dirtysanta successfully I wanted to move over to the magisk installation. Following the steps and attempting t use magisk I must have mucked something up very well.

after flashing the initial boot image and twrp from fastboot I hoped that it would fix these issues. Instead it seems to have corrupted fastboot. I did a kdz restore with reset hoping this would help but the touch screen still doesn't work and now I cannot setup the phone to allow adb. Booting from the system menu into usb-debugging mode just boots the phone normally

Currently I can boot into only into android but because I am stuck at the setup screen I can't connect through adb. I am not sure where to go from here.

The only thing that I can think of is getting a usb-otg adapter and connecting a mouse and attempting to allow adb by setting up the phone that way but I still cant flash anything from adb so I wouldn't know what to do from there. Does anybody have any suggestions?

Is there a way to install a boot image without fastboot?
