Sweet. Just need work around for 80% battery.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] KLPFL:
Yeah... and more stable..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] jpwhre:
I'm having pc (Microsoft blocking windows 8.1 and trying to prove it) https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us...essageId=8dff3e59-d59a-4d70-973d-000f5c1927eb but I think I'm going to give it a go what I posted in OP and see if I get root or I get unlocked SIM first. If I get unlocked SIM, I'll hold out for a stable root. If I get root, I'll let all know.

First things first, Microsoft. I've been locked out for a month and haven't been able to use my laptop. All I have is an older dell running Linux mint, with no working virtualbox as existing bios doesn't support visualisations and I don't have a battery to update bios. Workarounds building a bootable flash to circumvent this has failed. I've been stuck for some time.

Current tools are this note, galaxy tab 4 7", htc m9, and ipad pro. Gives me little to work with.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] partcyborg:
What is unstable about the note8 root? It is 100% stable. It is absolutely 100% permanent, it works on every boot, supports literally everything supported by any other root. Etc.

If by "stable root", you do not mean root at all but a way to unlock the bootloader, then 1) you might be waiting a while lol but we are trying, and 2) maybe you should say what you actually mean, like "I'll wait for systemless root if that day ever comes"
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] jpwhre:
I didn't have the chance to look into it. But yes, systemless, and unlocked bootloader would be nice. I understand this is a new beast from what in used to. And things aren't as easy when the manufacture doesn't allow or provide tools to do so like I'm used to.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] KLPFL:
The more stable is for me... i see there a few having issues..that's all i am referring to.. like 80% is one example... if my comment offended anyway.. my apology.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] jpwhre:
I wasn't offended. Informed.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] partcyborg:
Sure systemless root would be awesome and way better, but that doesn't make it unstable :)

80% battery isn't a bug either, it's baked into the combination firmware that makes this possible

Sadly without a bootloader unlock we wont be seeing either

[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] heyitsrj:
For ADB, I just use Minimal ADB and Fastboot. I'm no expert so you should also do your own research.

Assuming you got that all sorted out:

1. Type "adb shell" and enter.

2. Type "wm" and enter.

3. You will see various settings to change your display such as "wm size" (change resolution), wm density (same as "smallest width" in developer), etc.

4. For the camera flush you need to type "wm overscan 0,-23,0,0". The "-23" will move the status bar up. Play around with the settings. I personally use "wm overscan 0,-23,0,-23" to move the status bar up and bring the navigation bar down a bit.

5. Remember that little black mark from changing the dp? https://imgur.com/gallery/fM78t Yeah, that's actually just the chin mask to make the edges at the bottom look curved. When you change the display size that can appear. "wm show-chinmask false" to disable it.

https://imgur.com/a/W6bdz

Just a copy & paste from my post on reddit.com/r/essential

GL

edit: If you "hide navigation" for certain apps such as Chrome, it kinda turns wonky. If you just leave the navigation in default it should be ok.

I have a couple of questions, if anyone is able to help, it would be much appreciated:

In landscape, how would I get rid of the black bar on the camera notch side per app, if at all possible? I know getting rid of the black bar IS possible, I just don't know if it's possible per app.

What command in adb allows apps to fill the status bar, without hiding the status bar? As in, full screen mode with status bar there, but it's just transparent, like on Google Maps, or Nova Launcher.

I currently us AOSiP which allows all this to happen(minus the per app full screen mode unless I'm unaware of it), and I love this ROM. However, there are a few things I'm unable to accomplish with this ROM as of right now, and would like to know if I'm able to get the "full screen" utilized.

And let me be clear, I'm not interested in the immersive mode apps or adb commands such as

adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.full=*

I hope my request for help has made sense, and thank you all in advance!

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] MarkAtHome:
Hi -- I'm a newbie to PDA/Smartphones (not to PCs, though) and just bought my first... an HTC Tilt (AT&T branded). My last (and still working) phone is the SE637 which did well by me for years, so this was my next step. When I wanted to make a voice executed phone call, I pushed the "-" (minus) button on the left side of the phone and was prompted for name and then home, work, mobile, etc. This worked well for me.

I don't use PTT and would like to "re-map" (?) that button to work similarly. Reading various threads, aside from waiting for my head to explode, I've discovered that my voice can control operations beyond those that are dial-related.

I've come across Cyberon Voice Commander which looks pretty slick. Slick is very good to me, but performance and stability are best. Would you recommend this? Any others, free or not? Thanks in advance!

adb shell settings put global edge_handle_size_percent 100.00

with ADB from a computer, I then opened the edge menu (Still the old size and position) and when I went into handle settings, it had become fullsize. This may also work on the Note and S7 series as well as ported roms, I have only tested this on my S8+.

[LG V20 Accessories] HiddenKnight:
I don't like that awkward battery shapes, not the bumps of the replacement doors. I'd rather have the case to simplify it.
[LG V20 Accessories] spexwood:
I just got mine yesterday. The case it pretty nice, and I like it, but the thickness bothers me personally. It isn't too bad, but I like a slim phone, so I'm using this case as a portable charger.

Here are some details:

PROS

Convenient

Can use phone freely while charging

LED on back that tells case's approximate charge level

VERY easy to take off or put on

Case is very solid. I haven't attempted to drop my phone, but the case will definitely do some protection.

Redirects the speaker to a front facing one with little loss in quality.

NFC still works, unlike many of the larger batteries with custom back plates. I tested NFC with the case on and it worked perfectly fine.

CONS

Just about doubles the weight and thickness of the phone

Case must be turned on to start charging

Once phone reaches 100% charge, the case turns off. Once it does, it seems that you can power it back on again and keep the phone at 100% for a few hours. It's just a tad bit annoying that you need to do this.

Same thing as above, except when unplugging the phone+case from a power source. You need to then power on the case.

Overall, OP, I suggest you getting one if you need the battery and can live with double weight and thickness.
[LG V20 Accessories] HiddenKnight:
I genuinely appreciate you're feedback.

This seems like a well balanced unit. What is the standard charge time of the case itself?

I know the case doesn't allow data+power but just power. Does it have a passthru to charge the phone even if the case is on the phone itself?

You mention doubling the size, would this be with a case on it? Something like a normal tpu case then doubled? Or really just two phones?

The case is able to charge your phone how many tines?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] rahilm:
Anyone run into an issue with phantom touches on the screen? For me it's happening in the top right corner (seems to be roughly the same spot all the time). I think this has been happening since I removed it from the box on Friday. During the setup, the navigation bar would randomly become unusable, which I realize now is because there was a touch being held in the top right.

Usually, locking the phone and unlocking it will allow the touch screen to operate normally for at least 20s. On average this problem seems to be happening every 10-20 minutes for ~1 minute at a time.

Is there any kind of touch screen calibration or something like that I can run?
