Awesome thank you for the heads up. I was trying not to setup an openvpn server since my security gateway had an L2TP VPN server built in. But it looks like I'll be setting up a VM openVPN server tonight. Thank you wish me luck!

I will report back to let you guys know of that works or not. Still sucks that every device I have connected to my VPN worked except the one I use most! Pixel 2 FtW
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] vwgti18:
OpenVPN server worked perfectly! Kinda sucks cause it's not tied into my Ubiquiti GUI but it works perfectly! So I'm happy thanks all.

I use Private Internet Access. It is a paid sub ($50+ on slickdeals for 2 years) they have an app and quick toggle as well. Works on all my Android devices and PC so far. Pretty happy with them. Claims of no logging either if that is something of importance to you.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] vwgti18:
Yeah I have a PIA account also from SD but I dont use it anymore. The main reason for the VPN for me was to access my home network from outside safely. But since I have my own VPN server setup now no need to go bacck and forth to PIA and openVPN.

I am going to be putting my openVPN to the test today and see if I can hold a connection all day long. So far im 3 hours in no drops or disconnects yet... Im loving it.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] nlua:
Didn't think about access to home network from remote location. Might do that as well. Update us on how it goes.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] vwgti18:
OpenVPN was perfect! I stayed connected a full 8 hours. And had access to all my music and shares at home. :svetius:
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Wendell Hill:
Right, nlua, I am also using PIA which is very cheap VPN on the list of best VPNs services. My biggest reason to use PIA is that torrent-friendly VPN with no logs and Unlimited bandwidth and VPN speed.

[Sony Xperia XA Ultra Questions & Answers] Pannam:
Hey guys !

Check the pictures below and tell me if this is normal ?

There are two xa ultra and they both have different whites my is one the more bluish side and the other one is yellowish.

So which one is the true color ? Which is the right display ?

They are on the samw firmware and have the same setting.
[Sony Xperia XA Ultra Questions & Answers] rrvuhpg:
I have 2 XA Ultra at home too and I have the same thing. Probably because of different hardware revision or manufacturer.

Which one do you prefer or feel is the latest one? I plan to exchange my bluish display unit

For me the upper one is better, white is white and not yellow ;)
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] rasterize:
Thank you for a really thorough impressions review!

I'm very close to put in an order on this phone as well, mainly because I like the iadea of a QHD LCD for VR movie viewing. I have an OP3 but the resolution on that OLED panel is noticeably lower than my old OPO 1080 LCD. Have you had a chance to test if H265 playback in 60 Hz 4K is hardware supported on the Mate 10?

Also, how is the vibration motor if you have the phone in your pocket? On the OPO3 I don't notice a phone call if I have muted the sound.

I saw a review where they said the mobile signal was weak and inconsistent, but it seems like there has been a firmware update to address this issue? Do you feel the reception is better or worse than other phones?

Thanks again for sharing your thoughts!
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] nomad4ever:
Thanks for s great personal review! I'm flying tomorrow to Singapore for a few days. Still on the fence, if to buy now or wait for others (V30, U11+,...)

Also, how is your SOT (screen on time) now after a couple of days? Better, worse?

Which color did you get?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Jevansent:
H265 2160p is supported by default video player. Did not test 4K video.

Vibration motor is average. Nothing special.

Reception is fine, haven't had any issues with it at all.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Jevansent:
SOT between 5-6.5 hours depending on how much is on wifi or in 4g. No issues making through the day with heavy use.

I got the Mocha brown colour. Waiting for my clear case to come in. The only good branded case so far is the Ringke Fusion that was just released a few days ago.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] snachez:
Heya, thanks for your write up.. I picked up an ALP-L29 yesterday and am mostly enjoying it.: highfive:

Just curious if you have you been able to install the .119 update now available on firmware finder ?

On Telstra in Australia.. It looks like my IMEI is not approved.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] somemadcaaant:
I'm not experienced with Huawei devices at all, I'm eyeballing the Mate 10... but have you guys tried the software that they supply called Hisuite or am i missing something? Looks like it updates firmware also.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Jevansent:
Ah didn't even know there was a new firmware update. Huawei will slowly approve batches of IMEI phones for the update to avoid overloading their servers.

If you don't want to wait then use Firmware Finder. Sometimes the official update is slow - seen on FF far earlier than official update but sometimes it's also lightning quick and the official update hits your phone before you know it. A bit unpredictable. But overall of course FF is faster.
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] mifan1:
Hi everyone,

My Redmi 1S bailed out on me and is now stuck at the boot logo. I need to recover my data, before I flash a rom onto it.

Can someone please share a way by which I can access and recover my data from the boot screen / recovery mode / fastboot screen.?

Quick update : I tried Mi Flash but my phone is not getting detected :(

Please help

Thanks a ton in advance.
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] barrack1:
If you have a custom recovery like TWRP, you boot to recovery and use the built in file explorer or ADB to pull files out to the memory card or otg pendrive. If you don't have TWRP installed, then boot to fastboot and install TWRP first.

I don't know how, but I managed to put an email widget with only two-wide. (The Gmail widget that shows list of your emails)

Then I try to add another one but I can't. I can't resize any to two-wide it restricts to three-wide minimum.

Anyone has a trick to get two calendars side by side?

P.s. can't add picture with Tapatalk here? I have a screenshot.

I sincerely miss using the tweaksbox options that I had on my G3, g4, and g5. Any way to get similar tweaks on the G6? I have the rooted us997 version. Included a link below to tweaksbox just for reference. I'd love to have the double-tap navigation bar to sleep option, as well as customizing navigation bar actions like double-tap recents or menu to assign an app or action. Thanks in advance to all!

[LG G6 Questions and Answers] mkpcxxl:
Until now there is no tweaksbox for Nougat. P_Toti (the dev. of tweaksbox) has written in his thread for the LG G4 that he is very busy in his real life but when he find a little time there will be a possibility to make a version for Nougat.

Apart of this, there has never released an official version for the G5 but the G4 version has worked very well (with MM naturally). So until now it is not possible to say, which tweaks will work on a G6 in a future version.

Best regards

Sorry they are all a bit short but you will get the general idea, basically it comes down to there being no apparent way to hotswitch the dpi on a per app basis. The closest thing to any chance of it working would be to have a patch or layer that can emulate a lower res screen which GAPI for HPC's http://www.wincesoft.de/html/gapi_for_hpc_s.html is capable of doing for WinCE boxes that have widescreen resolutions but want to run an older 320x240 game or app so any potential solution would likely have to work along the same lines.

However the main issue is that the gx.dll method would not work in most cases as they are now quite heavily tied into the roms (certainly on my Athena) so I could never test it out fully, a generic or emulation layer based gx.dll would most likely 'break' the newer phones if it was forced into the windows directory and from some basic testing before simply placing the HPC gx.dll in the app directory does not enable you to make use of it as the base gx.dll is already resident in ram when the phones are started. I also tried reshacking a couple of apps and changing it to look for xg.dll and renaming the HPC one to match but that just broke everything as you have to re-sign the app which I managed but it just plain refuses to run and either brings up an error message or just does nothing when you run it.

Wow a bit long winded sorry about that but it may help anyone who wants to take up the challenge :)
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] dmp609:
Hi! I recently bought an Honor 8 from Bestbuy.com and am very much enjoying the phone. But I did notice that the phone was manufactured over 10 months ago, in December 2016. Should I be worried that the phone was created so long ago? Has anyone else who recently purchased this model noticed the same thing? Should I be worried that my battery life will be reduced due to this?

Thank you in advance for any insight you can provide. It's very much appreciated.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Dconn1975:
Where did you see the manufacturing date on the box? I just bought my third honor 8 a couple of days ago and I would not mind knowing when mine was produced. Please let me know if you don't mind how you found that.

To answer your question your battery life will be more than fine bcause there has been no use on it to strain it from it's original state. Your phone is totally okay as it just means it was produced new 10 months ago and it remained that way until you first plugged it in to charge therefore starting your true battery life span. So you have nothing to worry about whether your phone was produced 4 months ago or 10 months ago the fact is that it's still brand new meaning nothing has altered it's original new state that it was in until you opened it up and started using it. At that point it no longer remained new free of any usage.

Do let me know where you found your production date. I bought a Pearl White 64g and I'd like to know when mine was produced too. Thanks.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] dmp609:
Hi Dconn1975,

Thanks so much for your reply. It makes me feel a lot better.

I found a date 2 different places on my phone, although they were a few days apart. The first place I noticed one was on the back of my phone. There is a very tiny bar code and it says Date: 2016-12-22. But then I researched more and found that the date is found in the phone's serial number:

From the serial number (S/N) you will find:

Pos 6-7: Year

Pos 8: Month (Oct=A, Nov=B, Dec=C)

Pos 9-10: Date

You can find your Serial Number under settings -> about phone -> status

This indicated my phone was made on 12/18/2016. Hope this helps!
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Dconn1975:
Thanks a bunch. I'll have to check and see when my phone was produced. I was still running 5.0 so I think I'll be in a similar situation as you are. Thanks again and I'm glad I was able to help you.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] sysak:
Mine is 1692 , so i guess the month of production isn't necessarily expressed by a letter. Btw, I bought it in late October last year.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] dmp609:
Hi! The month is only a letter if it's October, November, or December. Otherwise it's the number that goes with the month. So if you see 1692, that was made in 2016, the month of September (that's the 9) and a day in the 20's. You'll need the number after the 2 to know the exact date.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Tel864:
I wouldn't worry. Mine was manufactured Oct 12, 2016 and it's been solid as a rock.

Has anyone noticed any issues while using Lightflow? I have been having issues where my phone won't turn on for about 20-30 seconds sometimes and I have turned everything off and Lightflow was the last that I turned off and so far I have not had this issue again yet. I'm just wondering if anyone else had seen this as well.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] hatdrc:
I had an issue where I would charge my phone at night. I would wake up in the morning and try to turn the screen on but it would stay off. I would have to reboot it to get it to work. The second time I unplugged the phone and could tell it was unlocking with the finger print reader but the screen would not come on. I forced the reboot and when it came back up I had a notification that lightflow was using more battery than it should. Uninstalled it and haven't had the problem since.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] krolla03:
Yeah that app got wayyyy to complicated years ago.

I use Lightmanager now. Much simpler havent had any issues
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] jpasint:
Light Flow seems to be working well on my 2XL.

As far as Light Flow being complicated, it does have a lot of options but that's a good thing IMO, not a negative.

The devs are attempting to make a program that works well with all brands of phones and Samsung, HTC and LG seem to have different methods for controlling the LED.

Light Flow can bypass the OS to control the LED.

I would suggest you email the developer before you give up or move to another program.

I think Light Flow used to have their own forum here on XDA and maybe they still do.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] ieatabiscuit:
Seems Navigation Bar Hider can have that same effect. Just installed it last night, and had my first experience with that effect. It's a lot less scary now that I know it's not just my phone, or just one app doing it. I wonder if it's the phone, the OS, or the Apps implementation on the OS. I personally think it's more software based though.

Update: Just looked at Light Flow (never used it personally). It looks like it has an effect with the lock screen. It's a theory, and I don't actually plan to test it if I don't have to, but I THINK both it and Nav Bar Hider having an effect with lock screens (with how I had it set up to be active with everything) is what causes it to not come on when you unlock after extended time. Since i have tuned hider to specific apps instead of generically on by default for everything, the symptom has not come back.

Hello everyone,

I seem to be only able to get Light Flow(Paid version) to work but only while the screen is off and not while the screen is on. I am rooted and I tried setting the options for both root on and root off and I have the option set for the LED to be always on while the screen is on, but again I can only get the LED to show with the app while the screen is off. I'm hoping that someone here can help me out by sharing their settings that they are using that enable them to have the LED on while the screen is either on or off. Maybe they could even share their own settings backup file if they have the app working while the screen is on?

It is a hiding the nav bar issue. The dev behind "Custom Navigation Bar" has supposedly figured out the problem and said that it doesn't happen when using that app for immersive mode.

Hello everyone,

I asked a question last week but I think it may have been missed or overlooked, so I am bumping it in hopes of getting an answer.

is anyone here able to get the paid version of this app to show/change the notification LED while the screen is on? I am able to change the color of the LED and it shows for all the notifications that I have set while the screen is off, but no matter what I do, I'm unable to get the LED to light up with my notifications while the screen is turned on, even though I have the setting enabled to do so.

So I would like to know what settings ppl are using to enable the LED to light up while the screen is either off or on? because ppl have mentioned in this thread that they have the app working for both screen off and on, so if someone that has this working could please share how they have the app configured, or what they did to get this feature working, then it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks a lot guys...
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] YellowSomething:
I've read up about numerous issues with the phone's gyroscope, but I've yet to see it be documented or really shown. My particular case, I've rarely seen mentioned.

So for some reason, when in a VR setting, there's significant lag only on horizontal movement. Vertical movement, though having SOME delay, is smooth and just works. Now the part that perplexes me is that regardless of the phone's orientation, it's always along the horizontal axis, changing depending on the phone's orientation.

Any idea as to what causes this? Most threads I see of this are just people confirming or denying they have this problem.

It's a H870 and everything went fine. twrp boots fine, LG's USB drivers are installed and windows detects the phone fine. I wiped the phone entering "yes" trying to install fulmics. That didn't work as it bootlooped, so i went back re-wiped the phone.

I then tried to transfer stock [ROM][H870][Stock] OPEN EU LG-H870 10T ROM. It transfers 1.8gb of the 2.5gb before stalling, not getting any further and transfer eventually fails.

Right now i'm trying to transfer the LOS rom, but nope. Not getting any % and 5 min later the transfer fails.

I can enter bootloader and i can enter twrp.

So right now i'm guessing it's bricked. Searching the forums finds some users using something called uppercut but information seems very limited. Not sure what to do or how to do it.

Edit: So this is still a new phone to me, loads of stuff i don't know. So what i've done so far is using this unbrick guide http://www.android.gs/how-to-unbrick-the-lg-g6/
