[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] SteelPicori:
For the note line of devices Wacom actually uses what they term as "penabled" technology, only penabled compatible devices will work (these tend to be screens that support both capacitive touch and EMR pen). Gen 1 and 2 surface pro were using wacom penabled tech, microsoft brought N-Trig and used that tech for gen 3 onward (it's actually an active pen which requires AAAA batteries to work).

samsung XE700T1A slate 7 line had a full size pen (though some what slim), it was lightweight and had an eraser on the end (note 8 does not seems to recognize the function and acts like a pointer, but have not exhaustively tested against all apps). The Fujitsu lifebooks ive been told supported a pen with 2 buttons, but not had opportunity to test these out. Other notable makers are Asus with it's EEE Slate (full size pen) and lenovo (mini pen, slightly smaller than the galaxy tab S3)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] harveydent:
Just a reminder for the OP: when using 3rd party pens, make sure to turn off "Spen detection" in power saving settings. The Note will ignore pen taps when that is enabled and an Spen is in the silo, so you'd think that the new pen is not working.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] nuclearrage:
Oh.... That's what happened. I was wondering why it wouldn't work without the original s pen removed.

Thanks!!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] pete4k:
But wouldn't keeping the screen energized for s-pen at all times, use extra battery power? And let me say from the beginning I have no idea if it's substantial amount or not to even worry about.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] SteelPicori:
Yes keeping the screen active will drain some battery, though I don't think by very much as it will still sleep when screen sleeps.

Can also confirm eraser on the Samsung slate 7 pen will work as an eraser if the app can accomodate, sketchbook, Samsung note and artflow will utilise eraser, surprisingly OneNote and Photoshop sketch does not
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] nuclearrage:
Got the tab 3 s pen yesterday , what a difference. Feels good and no cramps after lots of writing. I would put up with the Note 8 being a bigger phone if they could fit this full size s pen in it! Today will see how much battery it uses since I set the the phone ro always detect so I don't have to pull the original s pen out.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] nuclearrage:
Ok also got the steadler pencil as well. Works great, a little larger but just like holding and old school pencil. I really like both! Also , after 2 days now, I can tell no difference in battery life leaving the phone set to always detect s pen. I couldn't find a specific item in the battery menu that looked like the wacom screen, but really still awesome battery.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] marcoblbr:
Which one do you prefer nuclearrage? Found no comparison of these 3 together!

- Samsung Galaxy Note 8 s pen

- Samsung Tab S3 s pen

- Steadler digital pencil

I also own a Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 and just love it! I use a S Pen Holder Kit so that if feels like a real pen. It has a et-s100ewegstd S Pen, which is the 1st S Pen ever released for the Note 1. I like it a lot, but not as precise as the original S Pen that comes with the note pro 12.2.

Would also the 2 other Samsung s pens work with the 12.2 ?

Thanks!

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Zionator:
I don't know what u need the all this writing for but if u use it for school or work then I would use a tablet. I still got my beloved note 10.1 tablet and use it at work for quick notes for my daily report.

I wouldn't use a phone for lots of writing as it's too small to write longer S.A's and I can only imagine the annoyance of doing so.

Maybe keep an eye out if Sammy releases a new note tablet in the future if you find the note 10.1 to outdated.

Not that the above has anything to do with spen alternatives but just my two cents.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] nuclearrage:
I have a note 12.2 , not waterproof and doesn't fit in my pocket. I use the spen for lots of notes , work and play. I also have little rite in the rain notepads when I am really roughing it. Just a personal preference.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] calinormy:
I use with great joy tab S3 pen!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] ttoton:
I have a Wacom Intuos Pen&Touch A6 tablet, and its pencil does not work with my Galaxy Note8 at all.

Neither the touch nor pressing any of two buttons is registered by phone.

So, I confirm that not all Wacom pencils work with Samung Galaxy Note.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] SteelPicori:
It was covered in the discussion, only wacom's penable technology are compatible with Samsung's note line (and tab s3), to date none of wacom's digitizing tablets utilize the penable technology.
[General Questions and Answers] Ufeldraku:
My android 4.0.4 tablet can't download apps from Google Play Store, "Error 491"

As title says, and sometimes, when opening the "Top Free Apps" on the Holo-styled Google Play Store that comes by default, it gives error df-dferh-01

It doesn't have Google Play Services installed, but it has Google Services Framework.

I tried installing some other app, and I can *download* the aditional file for Game Studio Tycoon 2, but when it tries to download the actual app, it gives the 491 error, I have 1.1GB free of space, so that isn't a problem. Also, Google Play services isn't installed, but I do have Google Services Framweork as a system app.

I installed Google Play Store 4.9.13 but it didn't help either.

Thanks!
[General Questions and Answers] sasanka@901:
Can you install apps manually?
[General Questions and Answers] Ufeldraku:
Yes, I can, but I've tried installing future versions of Google Play Services/Google Services Framework/Google Play Store and they don't work/fix the problem. GPS takes longer to start, and sometimes makes the tablet reboot, GPStore doesn't open, and GSF doesn't do anything. I've factory resetted my tablet, it doesn't help either.
[General Questions and Answers] sasanka@901:
Are your current framework is original or custom?
[General Questions and Answers] Ufeldraku:
Original, I've never modified the tablet.

[General Questions and Answers] sasanka@901:
Why can't download?
[General Questions and Answers] Ufeldraku:
Dunno, I have internet, and I can access Google Play normally, but it says "Can't download [app] due to an error (491)" But I've tried every solution on the internet and I still can't fix it.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] copykate:
hello, so I'm looking to buy redmi note 4 snapdragon 625 for eu market but still not sure about the amount of RAM, I'm not into any kind of social media, no fb,snapchat etc. so this apps won't work in background 24/7 like on other phones, I'm gonna use it mostly for browser, some reddit, news apps, google maps, youtube, and other utility apps like office suit for pdf, some basic logic games maybe some rts if I find any but none of this shooters or racing games such as asphalt the other thing is android I think about 7.0 and MIUI 8 but not sure about that because I didn't do any reserch about that yet, so which one you recommend 3/32 or 4/64?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] kunal.solanki.965:
4/64 and yes the latest version of miui 8 is 7.o
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] shakil002:
noting different between 3gb/4gb work like champ ....
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] arshy:
Well, if you have extra bucks for 4/64, just go for it, why not, right?

I used 3/32 version, just for social media, browsing, streaming (youtube/twitch), some games (not heavy games though), its served me very well.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] jack_hunter97:
Wait for xiaomi redmi note 5.

If you eager to use note 4x, choose 4gb/64gb

If you want to save money choose 3g/32gb

Stay away from 2gb/16gb and 3g/16gb
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] Sachin:
4gb/64gb ?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] copykate:
can't wait fo note 5 and it's propably going to be much more expensive than note 4, can't afford a phone that is more than 200-250$, university lyfe
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] copykate:
theoretically I could buy 4/64 but in reality it's 50$ difference and with 0 social media working in the background, without all these notifications and stuff it's just not efficient to go for 4/64 in my opinion, that one gb of ram will just sit there doing nothing since snapdragon 625 won't utilize it, my concern is more around how will it perform on android 7.0 and MIUI 9 and after all I have 50$ more for a student that's a lot,especially from my country, for that 50$ I could buy a nice case like for 7 dollars and some decent headphones and maybe I would still have some money left, I'm gonna use this phone for at least 4 years tho and with time that one gigabyte might find some usage, I'm completely lost tbh
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] jack_hunter97:
Yeah i'm a collage student too

My first phone is redmj note 3 pro with 2gb ram, i bought it with 150 USD 1 years ago.

I thought it would be great for social app, but it keep loading app and hanging. I try custom rom and AOSP rom but no luck and that time, i regret if i bought 3gb ram it could be different.

And lucky for me, 1 weeks ago, i accidentally saw redmi note 4x with 4gb ram just only 175 USD ( it's old modern with 11 months warranty left ) i buy it and very happy.

So i sale note 3 pro with 80 Usd.

If you not have enough money just go for 3gb ram, but if you want to use in long term, consider to choose 4gb ram ( just my opinion and experience)
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] aabenroi:
There is no difference of 3gb and 4gb....

Its more 32/64gb
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] arshy:
Well, I am fully understand that. But since you intended for long term uses, go for 4/64. That's just my suggestion though.

Right now, 3 gigs ram its very enough. But 2-3 years later who knows?

3GB ram still perform amazingly, especially just for normal daily uses. Don't you worry about it, not kind of big different.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] copykate:
after a lot of reserch not only here but at least 6 other forums I'm getting closer towards 4/64 version, I'm buying it for a long time and that 30-40$ is not worth a **** up
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] arshy:
Yeah, everyone just go big or go home right?

But, don't listen to the others tho, if you think 4/64 not worth it and over killed for your daily uses, buy 3/32 version. Don't worry about performances, its the same with 4/64, except for heavy games. Cheers.

[T-Mobile LG G4] xaresys:
Hi all,

A few weeks ago my LG G4 started bootlooping. (I've heard this is a common problem with serial numbers starting between 505 and 509 - mine is 505...) I heatgunned the chips under the shields on the back of the mainboard, but all that did was break it even further; now it won't even turn on! BUT, the computer recognizes it first as QHSUSB_BULK, then as Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008. I also tried the freezer method, but that did neither harm nor help. Is there any hope for this phone? Thanks in advance.
[T-Mobile LG G4] steadfasterX:

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nmyshkin:
Sigh...they just had to make this sooooooo difficult.

I'm working with an 8 GB tablet so the internal memory space is tight. Right now I only have about 500 MB left (as opposed to many GBs on the extsdcard). I've made the change in the system/etc/permissions/platform.xml file and that has solved the problem with Overdrive and Kodi so both are now able to download directly to the extsdcard. My "last" problem is Hoopla. It gives the option for downloading to the extsdcard and you can select it, but if you try to download an audiobook or video it gives the wonderfully helpful error message that "something went wrong". It has no problem downloading to the internal, but there's just no room.

I thought about moving the app to the extsdcard, hoping to confuse it enough for practical purposes, but I have to say that process leaves a great deal to be explained. The "move to sdcard" button in Settings>Apps appears to be a practical joke. I haven't found an app yet that it works for and it gives a completely ludicrous message that there is not enough room!!

I've tried Apps2SD--way beyond my pay grade to comprehend. I've tried Link2SD. It says Hoopla is not moveable (quite possible). I did try to move another app that it said was OK, but it gave an error :-p

Have I missed something? One obvious conclusion is that the developers behind Hoopla did not do their homework, but recognizing that possibility, is there some kind of solution?

[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
You can't relock the bootloader using a version of firmware that is older than what you have... that is what you are trying to do.

Don't preface the flash with "oem lock begin", just start with like this:

fastboot oem fb_mode_set

fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot flash partition gpt.bin

<rest of stuff>

fastboot oem fb_mode_clear

fastboot reboot

Without a version of official firmware that is the same or newer than what you have installed, you cannot relock the bootloader... and we don't have the current releases.

If you are among the lucky few who happen to live where there actually is Band 71, please post your speedtests, and coverage availability compared to your old phone.

Not sure when but at some point the apps below will be updated to show Band 71. Don't forget to post screenshots actually showing Band 71 on these apps and let us know what region of the states you are from :)

LTE Discovery

SignalCheck Pro

I live in Central Pa, Altoona to be exact and WAS really excited about the promised roll out to this area by end of 2017. But after much digging I see that only a very very small part of PA is free to get Band 71 at this point. See my twitter post: https://twitter.com/CrowsnestIT/status/917132876096921600 View attachment 4296791

Here are links to where you can see how your area looks for current Band 71 usage by the TV stations and where you fall in the projected TMO Band 71 roll out. As for us in PA, we are looking at Phase 6 and 7 meaning end of 2019 :( That means it will probably be in the form of 5G and the V30 will be long gone :(

For people with V30 in T-Mobile B71 area, i have a open request for you. I am a freelancer working with Cellmapper.net project and would like to have your input.

The android app Cellmapper https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cellmapper.net.cellmapper can show and record LTE band data.

These recordings will be displayed on coverage map, once uploaded to central server. https://www.cellmapper.net/map

We need a debug report sent to us from Cellmapper app(settings page), while your LG V30 is connected to Band71 (app might show Band 7 as an error). This is needed to fix possible faulty earfcn reported by Android RIL.

Thank you in advance and please let us know if you have any more questions.

I assume this isnt a marketing choice but more about speed of transitioning whatever tv stations and other things in play. If it was marketing, they would have that North Shore of Superior covered right away!!!! It's rural but heavily traveled during summer.

Wyoming

I have family in the UP of Michigan and spend a good bit of time on Lake Superior in Grand Marais MI and I can testify that TMO has no coverage up there. It roams to AT&T but even AT&T only has HSPA+ in a lot of places up there. I did see over the last year that TMO got a few of there own towers in like Newberry MI and St Ignace, MI.

But yes you are correct, if it was up to TMO they would have it up as fast as they can find tower climbers to put it up, but thanks to TV it will be phased.

Agreed I just left AT&T this weekend for T-Mobile. Ported over our S6's for right now. Trying to get down what phone I want to get. Was going to get the Bogo S8 deal but since they do not have Band 71 I am not doing that now. Hope to get to a store this weekend that has the V30 in stock so I can get my hands on it.

[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] crowsnestitsupport:
Also agreed :) I have both the s8 and s8+ and just got the V30. If nothing changes to convince me otherwise, the V30 is hands down better than the S8's.. So far I have needed to factory reset the s8"s about every 15 to 20 days because they just get so laggy and buggy and have so much bloat. I have dropped by s8+ twice, both times in a case and the glass is broken front and back.:( Not saying the V30 will be better in that department though since it is also glass). But so far the camera is on par and the skin is much lighter and faster. We'll see how battery life and usability is over the next month.
