One thing about this I have noticed. It is pretty cool. But, once it has identified a song on your lock screen, it will not try to recognize another until you clear the previous notification. Haven't done extensive testing but this seems to be the case.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] nxt:
Nope. Works fine for me. In the car, it detects a song and shows it. When next song comes up it displays the new song.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] EeZeEpEe:
Correct. Let's say a movie is playing with a lot of sounds in the soundtrack, it gets it all. The Now Playing History app comes in handy with that.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] uicnren:
Doesn't work like that for me, identifies songs without ever even touching the phone.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] wyelkins:
Cool. I just didn't wait long enough. Also didn't have music very loud. Works good.

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neokami:
I used to have a S5 a while back and it was pretty easy to root, but I am having trouble finding guides/roms and root guides. Could anyone help me?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] ThirtyThirtyWin:
MY 2 XL unlocked arrived from google today. It's going on the Verizon network. Do I need to root and unlock the bootloader before putting in the verizon sim? Does the verizon sim prevent me from rooting and unlocking after putting it in?

Do I need to unlock the bootloader if I'm not installing a custom rom? I'm mostly interested in root for all the Tasker stuff I like my phone to do.

I'm very worried I'll do something wrong and be prevented from rooting/unlocking after putting the phone on the verizon network. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Golf c:
Google offered you two choices to buy. A Verizon version and a unlockable Google version. Which one did you buy? I would try and unlock it now. Your sim won't matter either way. If you bought the Verizon version your toast.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] WhiteReign:
I am sure its unlocked as it did not come with a sim and came from Google. I hope I bought the unlocked version.

Just got received my PH-1 today and I noticed that the notification LED is blocked by something?

It's a bit exaggerated in the pic since it's so large, but I can't move it or blow it out with compressed air. It's definitely behind the grill too.

Is this something normal for all updated PH-1's with a metal grill?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] jaydizman:
Is anyone else experiencing videos on Facebook or instagram playing choppy??

It seems when I play certain videos the first frame of the video will flash repeatedly through the entire video.. It's like the video skips a frame and you see the very first frame in its place and then keeps playing normal until it happens again like up to 10 times per video
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] jaydizman:
It's also pausing on its own
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] NathanHollow:
Yeah exactly the same on my s8...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] t3project:
same here as well
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] bayniner:
Also having the same issue
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] kal87:
having same issue, i believe it's due to verizon throttling video quality. from what i read, videos now play at 480p, if you want to unlock full HD playback, it'll coat $10 extra per month on your plan...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] jaydizman:
Strange that it only happens with FB videos not YouTube or Netflix
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] usmaak:
Is there any end to Verizon's nickel and dime to death approach?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] aceworth2:
Same

Same here, on an S8+. Video will start, play for about 4 seconds, jump back, sometime pause, then continue playing, and repeating the same skip a few times throughout the video.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] Kbdelk:
I don't think it's Verizon because I have Att and having the same issue with my note 8
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] Fidzy:
I'm experiencing the same thing, it's only happening on Facebook and with my Galaxy S8. There's nothing posted from Facebook or anywhere else saying they've established a fix or working on one.

Note: I'm in England and on the Three network, my home Wi-Fi connection is virgin media.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] jaydizman:
It recently started happening on my gf's S6. I've tried Verizon support and they blame fb no surprise there..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] failtorespond:
Disable the video enhancer option in advance settings. That caused me multiple video streaming issues on my note 8.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] comepso:
It happens to me on Wifi too, so don't think it's Verizon, also had the issue when i was with T-Mobile N7 and S7. Also i tried disabling the video enhancer like failtorespond suggested. Still get random pauses on Facebook videos. I blame Facebook's buggy app
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] SarahJayneSmiles:
Just tried turning off video enhancer, didn't resolve issue... on note 8

I'm experiencing the same thing- Facebook video gets choppy, displaying the first frame of the video for a split second then resuming. Super annoying! Galaxy S8 here on T-Mobile, video throttling turned OFF for my account, wifi through Spectrum.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] avengedfo7ld:
i find that I only have issues when the phone is in portrait mode when trying to watch facebook videos. Try turning the phone to landscape and see if your video plays okay. Guessing it's a Facebook app issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] gauth27:
Yeah, I've been having the same issue with my Samsung S8+ since Facebook pushed a recent update, maybe a week and a half ago. It's got to be Facebook, YouTube is fine, Kodi is fine, and it's happening over both cellular and Wi-Fi networks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] Oaklands:
I'm not a big Facebook user or a Note 8 owner (yet) but I just talked with my nephew and he said his video chats with Messenger and Facebook videos have been hanging up since he received an update on his Moto G5 Plus. Sounds like it is an app issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] usmaak:
I used to use the Facebook app, but now I won't even let it on my phone. It seems like whenever they fix one thing, they break ten other things. It's not a well done app.

Videos are choppy in portrait mode, turn your phone landscape and they run fine, can someone else verify this please
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] danalex0829:
I'm having the same issue on my S8+ but my wife is not. Seems like Facebook needs to get on top of this, be sure it is annoying to be watching a video and then randomly pause or jump back to the beginning, then you try to move the slider back to where you were before and it just continuously loads until you close and open it back up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] Fabofrito0417:
Copy Facebook videos

Hey guys I had this issue and I fixed it by installing Google or Google pixel launcher.

No more choppy videos..

*** Edit it's better but definitely still have issues
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] jaydizman:
I can confirm the problem is still there in the latest beta for Facebook
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] MatroxD:
The official Facebook app is, and has been a pile of crap for years(I refuse to install two known battery draining apps, that used to be one, that they enjoy lab rat type experiments on users, without you knowing) ..

I stopped using it long ago, and would at first, log into the website.. Then, I used couple of the ones from the playstore(the light versions of the apps). A while ago I began using Phoenix from a person on here, and I've been pretty happy with it by far. I would never, ever go back to the actual Facebook app.. Ever..

Sent from my note 8
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] Tirken:
I found a fix! (6.0.1)

FIX !!!!!!

1. Scroll into Facebook, find a video, click on the video, scroll to next video to see the skipping around / playback issues.

2. Look on the top left of the screen, there will be a PiP (picture in picture) icon, click it, then click yes on any dialog box.

3. Look at the bottom right of the screen, click on mini-video, it will return full screen just like before, and will be playing correctly now.

GOOD LUCK!!

ZTE ZMAX PRO Z981 ANDROID 6.0.1

(I installed one of Facebook 149.x.x.xxx.x betas at the above link, but the problem persisted until I followed the steps above.. I found this out myself, so I'm proud of myself right now)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] jaydizman:
^This didn't fix anything. All it did was have me give Facebook permission for PiP and the videos still don't play right in full screen (unless in landscape)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] IsaacKingsley:
I've just tried the landscape suggestion and the video that was choppy is no longer choppy. Also the choppyness goes away if you go from Landscape back to portrait after the video has started
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] Oaklands:
I had my first video chat with Messenger and was in portrait. No issues at all.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] heytoluca:
Happens to me too on Samsung S8+ (Plus). Reinstalled app and no luck so far. This started happening after the last update.

I also started getting Samsung performance warnings about com.facebook.katana. I reported this to Samsung and they said they were "aware of the issue" and that I should just use Facebook Lite instead.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] amitvig22:
I just downloaded the facebook beta app, my video is not lagging for once.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] Minzy Litty:
Experiencing the same issue. Only on Facebook videos on my S8+. Wifi and AT&T 4gLTE has same result. Did a search on google and found this thread.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] Cgr1340:
Yup, it definitely ONLY happens in portrait mode. Use landscape (sideways) mode and videos play fine. This is most likely a FB app issue.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] tardis_42:
Thought this might help some people get a little extra use out of a Pixel 2 feature: I'm using Custom Quick Settings to hide the nav bar and of course active edge stopped working, but I noticed it still functioned on the lockscreen. Squeeze-launching the assistant from the lockscreen is pointless to me because I still have to fingerprint- or pattern-unlock my phone before it will tell me anything, but I installed Button Mapper and although there's some warning in its description about not working while the phone is off, it does actually detect squeezes on both the ambient display screen and lockscreen.

I now have squeeze set up to toggle flashlight, since that's something I almost always need to do when the phone is locked and toggling it through quick settings is kind of annoying. This way I don't even have to look at the screen. But the point of this post is, if there's any task you want to be able to trigger while your phone is off, you can use squeeze to do that even if you have full-time immersive mode on.

I get permission denied when trying to type the script on my PC using ADB. How did you get around that?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] bryantjopplin:
What script and where? Please!!!
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] sharkie405:
"Script" was the wrong word to use. When I toggle the "Customize" button to attempt to use Active Edge in the app Button Mapper, it tells me to use my PC and adb to execute this command:

adb shell sh /data/data/ flar2.homebutton/keyevent.sh

When I attempt to do so, I get "Permission Denied."

I've used adb to allow the Custom Navigation Bar app to make changes and it works just fine with that app.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] bryantjopplin:
Adb shell only works with root right?

EDIT: NEVERMIND I found it.

---------- Post added at 09:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:38 PM ----------

Shell doesnt require root, i believe /data does tho
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] sharkie405:
That's what I figured. Which brings me back to how the OP managed to get the Button Mapper app working with active Edge on a not-yet-rootable Pixel 2 XL...?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] KHANrad_SIN:
Nice find, I can confirm this works. I have mine mapped to turn on the flashlight also, much more useful for me. Never really use it to activate google, especially since with the new "Hey google" hotword its much more natural to say that now.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] sharkie405:
How did you get the ADB command to work on your PC? Did it just work for you? See the last two posts above.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] sharkie405:
Okay, I think I figured it out. I went into application settings and went into the button mapper permissions and gave it permission for all three. I don't see why that would have to be the case, but after doing that I tried putting in the ADB command again and it worked. Now I have active Edge to turn on and off the flashlight. Sweet!
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] bryantjopplin:
Didn't have permission to access, makes since
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] JeffBea:
I'm getting permission denied to when I run The "adb shell sh /data/data/ flar2.homebutton/keyevent.sh" command in ADB. I also went to App Permissions and check all three items: Camera, Phone and Storage. Also went to the Advanced section and allowed App to modify system settings. Still doesn't work. Any help would be appreciated.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] enzeem2010:
Remove the spaces between data/flar2 to resolve the permissions denied message. The rest: I can't get it to work either.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] JeffBea:
Thanks, that worked.

I can confirm that this does work with phone in lock screen as well. It also works with the phone unlocked.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] cjkacz:
This works great. Love it!
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] enzeem2010:
Ok, figured it out too. I'm averse to allowing Google to follow my everything, so I hesitated at the location tracking permissions needed for Google Assistant, but once I followed through, it finally worked.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kayjack:

[Touch Cruise General] r_southampton:
Hello,

I've had several previous generations of HTC devices, and never really got to grips with Ring Tones / Vibration / Ring Volume. I had high hopes that WM6 would have sorted the mess out by now (my last PDA was WM2003).

What I really want from the phone part of my PDA is to be able to consistently and simply do the following (based on an O2 Orbit 2, UK)

1) Choose my ring Tone (ideally starting a little quietly and then rising in volume)

2) Set the ring Tone to Ring & Vibrate.

3) when in meetings / cinema / church etc. quickly set just to vibrate

4) after the meeting quickly set back to Ring & Vibrate

(Personally I have no use for zero ring volume combined with vibration off.)

5) as a final customisation, I'd like to be able to set different ringtones for different calling numbers.

This is what I've done so far:

First I used the O2 "sounds & notifications" profile on the home screen.

This integrates nicely with the volume slider button on the LHS of the orbit - BUT it appears to have a few problems:

a) you can't choose custom ringtones

b) you can't have a rising ring tone with vibrate

I created a custom rising ringtone by editing a small MP3 so that it starts quietly and rises in volume over about 25 seconds. Placed this in "My Ringtones" directory in "My Documents". Then had to read the phone handbook (always a last resort) to see how to set this mp3 as my ringtone. The answer is that the "my ringtones" tones are not selectable under "sounds & notifications", instead you have to open up the phone dialer app, select menu, options, then you can select your custom ringtone.

Unfortunately, every time you subsequently use "sounds and notifications" to select, for example, the "meeting" profile, or the "silent profile", you lose the custom ringtones - so you can't simply put the phone on vibrate, and then back to normal without then having to go back to the phone dialer, menu options etc.

surely there must be a simple way around this? every non PDA phone I've ever used has this sort of thing down as a straightforward essential tool.

Hopefully someone out there can either show me the obvious step that I'm missing, or point me in the directions of some 3rd party (preferably free) software that manages this task.

Thanks in advance

Roy.
[Touch Cruise General] gnick666:
1. The ringtones can be in the windows, windows/Rings, My documents (not subfolder), storage card (root).

2. On the phone settings tab, there is an option to set it to 'Vibrate and Ring'.

3. You can use the HTC Home screen (free, and included in original Polaris, but can be found here) or some other 3rd party app like SPB Phone Suite (not free).

4. Same, or setting up "busy" events in the calendar, and setting the HTC Home screen for atomatic.

5. Check your options on the contact details page.

For the increasing ringtone, there isn't a better workaround then what you did.
[Touch Cruise General] BadTasteUK:
I had exactly the same problem; this is my first non-Nokia, and I've always loved the quick access to "profiles".

From a recommendation on here, I now use pocketzenphone, which is fantastic.

I've got a row of five icons under the HTC home, to change profile. Each profile can change so many things, I don't use 20% of it! I just change ringtones and volumes.

It's free to try, and I think £10 or so to buy if you like it.

I am on Telus and bought a USA phone. I have flashed the updates using Odin and the HOME_CSC so that it could be carrier set to Telus.

However, it still does not get wifi calling and volte even though I've had the carrier enable it too. The CSC did enable HD voice though.

My question is whether I can flash the offical Telus firmware on my phone as the hardware looks to be the same.

I believe I will need the modded Odin but just wondering if anyone has had success with other models rom on their phones.

Hey all,

Attached are a series of screenshots that lead me to believe something isn't working as it should. The battery life has been great, but given these stats, I still think it could be better. Now, I've done some music and navigation with the screen off, but I don't think I've used those features for 5+ hours. Any thoughts on what keeping my phone awake and what I can do to remedy it?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] old_fart:
Greenify it to the max. You will need to give a few bucks to get quasi-system action. And you will need to use developer mode/debug/ADB to toggle a necessary, hard-to-get setting too . . .
