Because I paid almost 1000 bucks should be on par/better then any phone out to date on top of that whites look off yellow ? ... No biggie tho ? just wanted to know if there was any way to make screen brighter and fix this issue this is my 3 note 8 still the same yellow hue ?...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] TroubleShootMe:
Technically the iphone came out after the Note8....

Anyway

This is android.. it is possible with root to adjust. however you are risking damage to your screen and your eyes forcing the brightness any higher than it already is. personally i can not see a difference in comparison between the 2, i thought the note 8 was brighter? :confused:

Maybe take a look in display settings you can adjust colors there, or dare i say you have blue light filter enabled haha.

if not i am sorry you may have another defective device? :confused: i have not seen this issue personally though.

"The iPhone X has a record high Full Screen Brightness for OLED Smartphones of 634 nits, which improves screen visibility in high Ambient Light. The Samsung Galaxy Note8 can produce up to 1,240 nits, but only for small portions of the screen area (Low Average Picture Levels) – for Full Screen Brightness the Note8 can produce up to 423 nits with Manual Brightness and 560 nits with Automatic Brightness only in High Ambient Light. For small portions of the screen area the iPhone X can produce up to 809 nits (Low Average Picture Levels). On its Home Screen the iPhone X produces an impressively bright 726 nits. See the Screen Brightness section for the measurements and details."

This. This phone is way too bright for me. I keep my brightness at 30%, unless I'm outside. Outside, I use 50% and can see it just fine. My wife keeps hers at like 75% and it's like staring into the sun. :D

But I recognize that everyone is different and has different needs from their phone. Even if I could stand that brightness, I'd be afraid of burning in my screen too quickly. There is a thread around here somewhere about how some people are already experiencing burn in on their devices.

Umm... You know that Samsung makes all of the iPhone x screens, right? Anything that can be done with one can be done to the other. You might be restricted from doing things through software but if thats the case then hack your way past it.

Screen brightness is a pretty big deal for my aging eyes. I definitely noticed immediately how much brighter and easier to read the iphone x was than the note 8 (and s8) in the tmobile store I just walked into today. And the note 8 (and s8) was on full brightness. I thought maybe the display note 8 was already showing signs of wear from being a display model. I'm also not sold on the curved screens on the s8 or the note 8; extra reflection; the feeling that what you're looking at always bends on the edges, not quite being able to tap exactly where you think you're tapping at the edges, etc. Anyway, as much as I like my note 4 and will eventually consider a note 8 (when money allows), I have to admit for me (an Android enthusiast), the screen was amazing on the iphone x. That being said, I just can't use iOS over Android again anytime soon (unless someone gave me a free iphone x LOL).

In case you haven't searched the posts, there's a way to calibrate the screen to remove yellow / red without root. It involved going into the display settings, pumping up blue and green. Then enter a dialer code and reset the red to zero. I'll see if I can find the post again but my red tint is gone and the screen seems way brighter.

---------- Post added 08-11-2017 at 12:05 AM ---------- Previous post was 07-11-2017 at 11:59 PM ----------

Here it is

Set to adaptive in display settings ...then advanced ..... Then pump up blue and green ( for red tint ) or adjust green down for yellow. Then enter *#15987# Into the dialer and change red / etc levels back to zero.

I had a red hue and it looks great now.

[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] carnivalrejectq:
Any Oreo ROM I've tried recently I can't get volte/WiFi calling to work to activate. I'm using metro PCS and the trick on nougat ROMs to get it to work properly every time is to just delete the metro APN and use the T-Mobile one. Why this works, idk. I know it CAN work on Oreo ROMs because it did in earlier builds but I've abandoned all hope because it just won't work anymore.

Unfortunately at home I have little to no edge/3G for calling so I rely on volte/WiFi. I don't make much calls anyway so it's not too important but I'm wondering if anybody has a clue what the issue is? I'd like to be back on Oreo with all the progress that's been made.

[Tasker Tips & Tricks] MANswers:
Hi all,

This issue has been bugging me for a while now. I am not new to android OS. But recently the company I work for has introduced a secure mobile policy that means if i have to access corporate email and calendar I have to encrypt the device and setup password for boot, and use 8 digit password instead of pin or face or iris or fingerprint recognition. The 8 digit password is a must.

The most annoying part is that after I enter the password, the device does not take me to the home page, but instead it takes me to the page where I have to swipe to go to homepage.

This is annyoing as hell. I have tried various things but it it didnt work.. like going into..

Lock Screen and Security > Screen Lock Type > None

And then choose Password. After this I get the Notifications (says, Select display option for notification on the click lock screen) page which i have turned off .

Inspite of that if i unlock the phone with the password the additional step of going to the screen where i have to swipe to log in automatically shows up.

Please guide.

OK, It would be great to get a place where I can look through the WM5 cabs that we have available here. I keep searching and end up having to try 4 different version of HTC Home plugin before getting the WM5 one, or having to install remove HARD Reset other HTC apps or different themes. If we had a WM5 section I think it would be great. I would be happy to post all the Apps that I found to work on WM5 so far. As well as a few the had me HARD Reset :( :( ...

Well That is just an Idea. I know many people have moved to WM6 but WM6 slows an older phone down (Cingular 8125) from what I have read.

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] pow01:
Recent Mi A1 owner here, as usual getting little joy from Mi support.

I purchased a new Mi A1 recently but when I connect the headphones the volume self adjust down to DND mode. If i try to increase it will resist and push itself back down. This is an intermittent problem but will usually happen within 2-10 seconds of plugging in.

The headphones are JCV with inbuilt mic and three rings. One button to answer call. When this button is pressed the volume reduces one step on the slider (volume slider display appears on phone.) They are working fine on my other devices.

The Mi A1 is Gold MDG2 running stock 7.1.2

I'm trying to determine if this is a hardware issue with the phone (in which case I can exchange) or

a software issue with Android

it has been suggested in (1) other thread that there may be an incompatibility issue with the inbuilt mic.

Has anyone else suffered similar issues? Any help or advice would be much appreciated.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] hoolifailure:
I believe this is an android issue. I've experienced the same on other phones, but it happened so infrequently (1 or 2 times a month), it didn't bother me. The quick fix was to take the headphones out and insert them again right after it happens. I find it happens with IEMs (with volume controls or even one button for pause/play/fwd/back) that are damaged or well used/dying soon.

Since i read this thread, i went looking to see if there were some fixes. Can you see if you can enable your System UI tuner? Follow this path >Do Not Disturb>Volume Buttons Shortcut to off?

I only read this so i am trying myself as well and will see if i get this problem again. My reasoning as to why this may work is that i think the volume controls may be an issue on the IEMs/headphones. I think it must be sending some kind of command that enables the DND with the volume button controls. Anyways, just my hypothesis, maybe give it a try.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] pow01:
Thanks for the tip about system UI. I have disabled it and will be testing now to see the effect. The JVC headphone are fairly new but are budget. I will try to purchase the Xioami basic headphones this week to see if the problem persists. They have the same feature set as the current pair I am using.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] jack_21:
Same here.

Sometimes the volume will increase itself, making bad things to my poor ears...

The stange thing is that sometimes instead of increasing the volume, it will stop the music or enable DND mode.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] bravovn:
This isuse happen with some device not all. I think this is hardware issuse, not software. I asked one guy who use LG quadbeat 3 like me, he says everything fine with him.

Try to test with xiaomi test, the test auto recognize volume down button without press.

So what is solution?

Use headphone without mic, or just one "skip" button.

Really disapointed with this device. After facing warm color screen and laggy scolling, and jack problem make me feel tired.

The first and last phone with xiaomi.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] pow01:
Some additional findings:

It seems that blowing into the microphone causes the volume to reduce on the handset. Also, if i am driving the issue intensify's so it seems to be something being picked up by the microphone that is making the volume reduce.

Xiaomi customer support are baffled and only advise to take it to a service center.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] sunny765:
Okay this might sound weird, but I faced the same issue in yu yureka.

The cause from what i was able to determine was this type of connector will work without the issue you faced,

[IMG="Working"]https://i.imgur.com/7dp4IPR.jpg[/IMG]

where as

this type of connector will give you issues.

[IMG="Not Working"]https://i.imgur.com/7sBA92N.jpg[/IMG]

In Yu Yureka the scenario was reversed.

My CX180's and my JBL headphones (don't remember the model) work fine with the connector with two "grooves" where as

another pair of JBL's (don't remember the model) and a model of Sony headphones with three "grooves" will give me the above mentioned issue. Again, Just what i experienced. Might not be the case for all.

(Tested on both the black variant and the white variant)
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] hoolifailure:
Almost assuredly, it will involve 3rd ring because the 3rd ring is what sends the commands and the command it sends is what I suspect is the issue.

2 rings means no remote/mic and no commands, those two rings are output only, only transmit the sound.

It don't think this a purely hardware issue. It's happened on my old phones (Axon 7) and specifically with nougat, never happened in Lollipop. Also, Nexus/Sony/Moto devices have the same reported issue. So to blame this fully on Xiaomi, I don't think is fair. If that many manufacturers have similar reports, it's clear its something beyond hardware or a particular phone/manufacturer.

The one IEM I had this issue with is one with a single button. So I don't think that is a solution.

Can't say I've had such a bad experience with this phone. In fact, I think it's made me interested in buying Xiaomi again, especially if they continue in the android one program.

Odd indeed. Have you tried with other headphones? I'm guessing the system ui thing didn't work then?

I tried with my Sennheiser Momentum (3 button cable), an old pair of KZ ED10 (single button), and a newer set of KZ ATR (single button), all without issues. The only one I have with this issue on are my other cheap and well-worn VJJB K4 (single button). I'll keep testing.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] pow01:
I can confirm the two pairs of headphones I have tried are "three ring" variety and both give issues. It seems to be something to do with the microphone picking up sounds as when I blow into the mic the volume will reduce one step and when I am driving it will reduce all the way to DND.

Surely this does not mean I cannot use inline headphones with a microphone? I guess investing in bluetooth is the way forward. This almost renders the headphone jack as useless. I will be purchasing the Xiaomi budget headphones (with inline mic and answer button) and will report my findings accordingly. These are also "three ring".
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] pow01:
Follow up report for anyone experiencing similar issues.

Since purchasing the Xiaomi basic headphones I have not experienced any issues.

Possible cause: The Xiaomi have a higher ohm rating than my previous set, so it could be something to do with this. My old JVC HAFR37A had only 16 ohms whereas the Xiaomi basic operate at 32 ohms. Both headphones have the same feature set.

Thanks for all the replies.

[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] detlion1643:
So I got my shiny new device today, and it feels really nice. I worked with the launcher it came with, tried another one, and realized that yep, I gotta root and install a new rom. The notification bar just annoys me too much as I'm used to having quick actions and other things in there.

So, I followed a few guides, and finally worked my way through to having my command line find my device and can successfully reboot it into fastboot mode.

At that point, I realized that I can boot into recoveries without flashing them first (essentially trying them out to see how it works). However, I tried the 4 official version on the twrp site, and one made by a user here (cuoco92). They all successfully boot into the recover using the command "fastboot boot nameOfFileHere.img". At this point, every single recovery failed to respond to touch and volume presses. I can press the power button to turn off the screen, and pressing power to turn the screen back on shows a locked recovery screen, but I can't slide the screen to unlock it.

This is quite concerning to me. I don't want to flash a recovery for good if it's not working properly. I hope this makes sense. Or, is it normal to just flash a recovery and hope for the best? Do recoveries work with just booting to them without being flashed?

I haven't rooted and/or flashed any devices in about 5+ years, the last being a phone from virgin mobile that supported sd cards. When installing new roms, do we store the zips in the root of the phone, or does this get cleared out/deleted when doing the wipe cache/dalvik/etc?

Personally, I just want to make sure I don't rush into this, as there seems to be fragmented results when searching around for twrp not working with touch. I know these things have been asked before plenty of times, and I hope I don't come across as another "ugh, this again" post. I really appreciate any responses!

[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] jman0:
Try booting the official TWRP recovery. As far as I remember, some of the versions tweaked by Cuoco92 had issues with the touch panel.

Anyway, EUI is not that bad, as your were told. While I used it, I also used an app called "Notification Toggles", which lets you get Quick Settings like toggles on notification area. It's nice and easy to set up, and the results, although not the same as having the AOSP toggles, is quite nice and convenient.

BTW, which stock ROM did your phone come with?
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] detlion1643:
I have tried 4 different official twrp files (all from the twrp site). My phone is an x820 6gb/64gb and came with EUI version: 5.8.019S (Stable). EUI is nice, very fast and sleek. Maybe I do just need to get used to it, or maybe it's just me itching to try out the different options available since I finally have a phone is not carrier/manufacturer locked down.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] ThE_MarD:
Heyyo, hmm that's very odd indeed! I wonder if maybe by temporary booting Cuoco92's TWRP it could have messed up your recovery hmm...

I'd recommend first to flash the stock recovery over your current one and then reboot to fastboot and then flash TWRP. Hopefully this will erase any problem that Cuoco92's recovery could have caused.

This was the guide I followed and it worked flawlessly for me

[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] detlion1643:
I never actually flashed any of them. I have only ever just tried booting into them using "fastboot boot recovery name.img". I have not used the fastboot flash command for any of the files.

The only thing I can do after booting the recoveries is hold the power button and eventually the phone will boot up normally.

Remember that I just wanted to boot them to make sure they worked before flashing them. I'll be checking out the guide you linked shortly.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] ThE_MarD:
Haven't flashed any of them eh? Hmm should work just fine then... Have you tried TWRP 3.0.2-0 ? I know that one was built with Marshmallow sources

As for which ROM to try? I'd recommend OmniROM if you want to try a custom Nougat ROM.

[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] detlion1643:
Thank you so much for the guide you linked. I'm making a little bit of progress here.

I found a twrp recover by cuocos92 that is labeled V3 (apparently from what I read in other threads, V3 seems to be good with the 6gb/64gb models). This recovery allows the use of the touchscreen :). Remember that I am only using the "fastboot boot" command so no flashing yet.

Now that I am in a working recovery, I kept hitting "keep read only" so that the stock recovery would not be replaced. I set out to make a backup. Well that kept failing with attempts of trying to mount /system and such. Off to more reading, found out that using the Wipe->Swipe to Factory Reset inside twrp fixes this. I did that. I successfully created a backup.

Now to try to flash the SuperSU zip I have, which was previously copied to the root of the phone from my pc. Can't see any zip files on the internal storage. Reboot the phone (forgetting that it takes a long time after the wipe). Copy the backup to my pc. Copy the SuperSU back to root of phone. Restart the process of adb and fastboot -> back into the cuocos92 V3 recovery. Still no zip to be found. Couldn't mount system again...

Did some more reading. I just attempted the Wipe->Format data. I am currently rebooting back into the phone to set it up again. Apparently, a lot of people say this needs to be done if we did not reboot after unlocking the bootloader. Since twrp has been asking for a password each time I entered it, the format data is supposed to solve this.

I'll edit/post again with more steps or results.
