[Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers] 22Dávid22:
Well, I haven't tried this, I just want to know, if my idea would work or not.

So my idea is to combine Redmi 3S fastboot files with Redmi 4X fastboot files, because these two devices are very similar. So download fastboot files for both devices. From Redmi 4X files copy system.img to Redmi 3S folder. So overwrite the original system.img in 3S folder with the 4X one. Now in the Redmi 3S files edit flash_all.bat with Notepad++ and delete the line which flashes the recovery, and the one which reboots the device. Save the file and start flashing with MiFlash the modified Redmi 3S fastboot folder, with flash all option. When the flashing finishes, close MiFlash, on phone don't exit fastboot mode. With Minimal ADB and fastboot flash a TWRP to phone. (fastboot flash recovery twrp.img then fastboot boot twrp.img) In TWRP do a factory reset (don't wipe system), then flash a kernel for Nougat ROMs, whichever for Redmi 3S on XDA.

For updating ROM do the same steps, but modify the flash_all_except_data_storage.bat file, in MiFlash choose flash all except data and storage option, and don't do a factory reset in TWRP.

So my question is, how would this work? Would this brick my device or it would be buggy?
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers] Adi.s:
If configuration is same then it will definitely work

If by mistake any thing goes wrong u will be in soft brick u can easily flash the stock ROM.

Go for it
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers] 22Dávid22:
Maybe I try this later when I have time for it. But if I think harder, then if it would be that easy, the ported Nougat based MIUI 9 shouldn't have any bugs. (It's ported from Redmi 4X to Redmi 3S, camera isn't working.)
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers] Adi.s:
If hardware is same (ie every like camera, processor )

Then the port is easy.

[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] entropy1024:
I'm looking to buy a new Pixel 2 XL when it comes out. Researching the handset I found that it uses a new SIM, e-sim. Originally I thought it was a smaller SIM, however it looks like it's now a tiny chip permanently on the phones board.

I thought that this would act as a normal SIM, just unable to remove it from phone. However before spending money on the phone I wanted to confirm it would work OK on my network.

I'm currently with Sky Mobile in the UK and I asked them if they will support the e-sim and they were pretty vague and unsure if they would support it. Called a second person and got the same non-committal answer.

Anyone here know if it will work?

Many thanks

Tim
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] Belimawr:
it may come different internationally, in the US a lot of networks didn't use sims while the UK and the rest of the world that uses GSM always has, this is only changing in america now that 4G is common as it is a GSM standard so requires a sim.

so I wouldn't worry about it yet, Google still hasn't officially announced the phones and on nearly every phone the US and international versions are different as outside of the US we use a lot more bands.

so basically wait for the official announcement as it wouldn't be anywhere close to the first time a US phone has had no actual sim while the international version have and it seems more likely this is geared towards keeping the US away for actually needing to start using sims in every device since their networks are a lot more tied down.

the non committal answer is likely due to the fact the phone hasn't been announced so the likes of EE who will actually stock it won't be allowed to answer if they have been pre briefed, while the other networks who wont stock the phone likely wont have any information until after the phone is announced and they start asking google.

It just occurred to me that the esim is going to suck for traveling abroad
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] RoccoN4:
My question is, if someone like me and a lot of others like to change phones often, how will we go about doing so?

Now we would just pop out our sim and put it in a different phone. How does the E-sim work? Once our numbers are on them I guess the nano/micro sims we have now are trash?
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] xocpixel:
do you have a pixel xl, I guess if it was really important to you a pixel xl is still an amazing phone. I just got mine 2 months ago for around $500 on ebay brand new. Man it's such a sick phone. I really love it. Of course I want the new one but am really happy.

Hopefully the esim is just as easy to switch, would be nice if there was a tool where we could program it.
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] l33tlinuxh4x0r:
It will probably be like older CDMA phones. You will have to deactivate the phone and e-sim first before you can switch carriers. Once it is deactivated you will just have to give your carrier the IMEI and ICCID. Kind of a pain and you will lose your number due to deactivation unless you have a temporary phone to swap to but there should be no more missing sim card errors!
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] RoccoN4:
I had the regular Pixel. Sold it. Am playing with the Essential (it's not as bad as all these reviews). So I guess if I get the new Pixel 2 XL, I won't be able to swap sims back and forth?
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] sd_matto:
Prediction: e-SIM won't be easy to switch, and older plans (e.g., Verizon grandfathered unlimited data plans) won't be permitted on the e-SIM as being "not compatible".

Just another means for carriers to take away control from end users. C'est la vie!
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] biggiestuff:
Definitely not keen on the idea of not being able to swap my sim from phone to phone. The few times I'd need to switch are usually emergency situations. I hope this rumor is wrong.

E-sim is not for the current Pixel....
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] uicnren:
no one knows if its even for the next Pixel either
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] Belimawr:
from my understanding the "SIM chip" is already in the phone and using serials and such I'm guessing there will be some black magic at the network end where they can push the SIM data to the chip on the phone, it may even end up like some of the older phones (more heard of it on the Apple side) where you actually have to go into the networks shop and have them activate the handset, either way I can see this being short lived as most of the world has used SIM cards since time began, so in these countries it will likely put a lot of people off if they have to keep dealing with the networks more so than they do now to get the network lock removed down the line.

[Moto Z Questions & Answers] Teasy12:
Screen smashed on my Moto Z, phone is still working and even the touch screen works fine. But there's no image at all. I have a new phone but I'd like some of the data I have stored on the Moto Z before I wipe it.

Anyway I plugged it into my PC and opened the phone its recognised by the PC and opens a folder but its empty. Which is because unfortunately I need to enable file transfer on the phone to allow access to the files, but I can't do that with nothing visible on the screen.

Any ideas how I can get the data off the phone?

Might even help if someone could post a image of the screen you have to use to select file transfer, then I can just hit the right area on the blank screen to enable it..

[Moto Z Questions & Answers] Teasy12:
Don't know anyone with the projector, or even with a Moto Z. I can't even delete the data now, as google won't find the device for a remote wipe (my new phone being logged into google has logged my Moto Z out maybe?).

Would be great if someone could post a few screen caps of the Moto Z plugged into to USB asking for input to enable USB file transfer, then I could use the image to enable it and just copy/delete data with my PC.
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] Teasy12:
Could I maybe put the phone into download mode (should be easy enough even blind). Then use Odin to flash a stock Moto Z ROM which would also wipe all data?

Oh ! In frustration, I merged all the contacts that had duplicates !
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] deepesh_p:
A month after use, could you find a fix for this? It's making me go crazy! Even when I choose to show All Contacts, the app itself shows only one app, but if I search for a contact, it shows anything between 2-8 entries for different contacts. That inconsistency itself makes it difficult to put a finger on what is creating the issue.

Experienced this on my old Moto G Turbo when I installed AOSP extended based on Android 7.1.2 custom ROM, making me thinking this is definitely a problem with AOSP itself. Forgot what I did to fix it, but the problem doesn't exist on that phone anymore. Hope I didn't lose my **** to manually merge every contact! Can't do it again!!!!

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Leong428:
I'm running Google Contacts from PlayStore, doesn't offer the option to merge my contacts.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Leong428:
Unfortunately not, I've just learned to live with this minor annoyance. Basically I use search in the Phone app to get the contact I want - the phone app only shows the first contact in search and typically doesn't show the duplicate WhatsApp counterpart. This is the same case in Messages where using search will show just one contact instead of two.

Pretty confident it's a ROM or AOSP issue as you mentioned, because I had this issue on my Nexus 6P before on a certain AOSP ROM but it went away after switching ROMs.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] deepesh_p:
Actually went through the hassle of manually linking all those duplicates that the app itself refused to recognise as copies. It's was a very frustrating experience, but not as much as seeing 8 copies of the same name popping up every time I look for someone. Did this for the second time on a phone using AOSP ROM. Hope they fix it soon.

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] quad_bx:
I have successfully solved the duplicate issue by:

1. Exporting all my Google contacts(My Contacts > More... > Export...):

[IMG="Export from Google Contacts"]https://i.imgur.com/2GBBW85.jpg[/IMG]

TAKE REALLY GOOD CARE OF THIS FILE!!

2. Deleting all my Google contacts(if you're not sure what you're doing, STOP now)

3. In the .csv file generated at step1. search for all mobile numbers that are not in international format & replace them with their international format using Notepad++. Example for Romania: all mobile numbers are formatted like 07xxxxxxxx, and the international format is +407xxxxxxxx:

[IMG="Notepad++ search & replace."]https://i.imgur.com/G1T77Ii.jpg[/IMG]

4. Save as... the edited file as "google - edit.csv". DO NOT overwrite the original back-up, as you might need to do some trial & errors here, depending of the format of mobile numbers in your country.

5. Importing the contacts back into Google from the edited .csv file(My Contacts > More... > Import...).

6. PROFIT?!?

Now, for me, the duplicates are gone as the phone numbers in my Google Contacts literally match international phone numbers format from Whatsapp.

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] TSDE73:
I thought this problem can be solved very simple, you open the google app with the double contacts (phone or messenger). If you have multiple contacts there , means an entry with the google contact and an entry with the whatsapp contact, you open the whatsapp contact, check the syntax of the phone number (e.g. +49 123 456 789) and change your google contact with exactly the same syntax (you repeat it with every multiple contact). After that, you go to Settings -> User and synch both, google contacts and whatsapp and the problem was gone. I've solved the problem with that for me.
