[LG V20 Questions & Answers] shawnmos:
So I got burned on ebay on two separate US996 phones. The sellers never stated a provider and just said factory unlocked (some on ebay actually say US Cellular) so I naively assumed they were the same as the unlocked version B&H photo has been selling.

However after buying them I found a thread on how to tell the difference and the factory unlocked should say USA under the battery. However, the phone I got says UCL (which I think is US cellular) and my wife's phone says BPL (no idea what provider that is).

So, I am wondering if I should just keep these at this point. I paid $268 for my wife's phone about a month or two back and $250 for mine a week ago, so not a terrible deal, but I could have gotten an AT&T unlocked version for not much more new.

So anyway, these phones don't come with any carrier bloatware which is nice and why I'm considering just keeping them. I don't really care about rooting, however I am concerned about 2 things: future updates and cellular bands.

Does anyone know what the differences are hardware wise between these 3 variants or is the only thing that's different the software?

If it's just software shouldn't there be a way to flash these with the real factory unlocked firmware?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] bbf:
Here's a page with the latest ROMs for each variant of the US996:

https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-us996-firmwares/

The BPT one is the BrightPoint version.

The odd thing is that the US Cellular version of the US996 has a much newer version of firmware than the USA Factory Unlocked US996.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] shawnmos:
Interesting. It looks like the US Cellular firmware works on the unlocked version so I guess there is no difference. I wonder if that means I can flash my wife's phone with the US cellular firmware as well. Never heard of brightpoint.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] dimm0k:
not sure how true it is, but if you flash the US Cellular firmware on the unlocked version and try to unlock through LG then it would no longer be recognized as the unlocked version. that said you can unlock first and then flash... which is what I did so I can't confirm the former to be true
[P3600 Software Upgrading] foxuniform:
Bought it 5 days ago. When the battery went dead last night, I plugged it in to charge and switched it on .It did not go past the Windows Mobile splash screen. I took the battery out as well as the sim and memory cards, to no avail. I left it plugged in overnight and got the battery fully charged (battery indicator light is now green) and the network status green light would (at least sometimes) start flashing on boot, even though the phone would not completely boot up. I CAN get it into bootloader. What I want to know is, should I go to www.htc.com and download and install an official ROM from there, or should I leave all that alone and take it back to where I got it from before I screw it up? Additionally, the phone shows up as a Dopod D810 when registered on www.htc.com, and the radio and ROM versions appear to be lower/older than what came pre-installed in the phone. Advice anyone? I am fairly new and in the process of learning all this wonderful stuff you guys have to teach.
[P3600 Software Upgrading] vistar:
it seems like its already been fiddled with (correct me if i'm wrong people), i would visit the HTC club site and if you can upgrade using your serial number do that, as if you look in the trinity WIKI in "Trinity" forum (Not Trinity 6 forum, here) it states there is a different way to flash the p3600i as its setup different than the standard p3600.
[P3600 Software Upgrading] wizzkidd:
This is exactly what happened to my phone when the battery died (after installing FInixNOver) Is there a problem with these ROMS, or something that happens when the phone dies!... My phone was also 'sticking/frozen/crashed' on the splash screen.

I just reflashed it with a new ROM after fully charging it again.
[P3600 Software Upgrading] foxuniform:
Thanks VISTAR. And WIZZKID - your phone works perfectly now after the flashing? And do you think it's because of the stuff you installed? BTW my ROM was an official HTC ROM. I actually got called out early this morning to do a flight to the island where I bought the phone (I am a commercial pilot flying Caribbean routes) and I packed it's backside back in the box and sent it to be exchanged. I don't have the new one yet, but I am beginning to wonder if I shouldn't try something else because of this problem of sticking at the splash screen - however I only have a choice of the Kaiser and the S730 at the moment. The P3600/P3600i is among my favourite WM phones of all times, but I don't wanna have to go thru this again. What do you guys think? By the way - I only just realized that I started this post in the wrong section, so please forgive me anyone whom is not pleased by that.
[P3600 Software Upgrading] vistar:
iF YOU HAVE THE CHANCE OF A KAISER I WOULD GO WITH THAT, ITS THE BEST OUT THERE AT THE MOMENT..
[P3600 Software Upgrading] foxuniform:
Yeah I know but I just don't like it the way I like the P3600i and some of the others. Besides I prefer no sliding hardware keyboard. Moving parts is an issue for me as I am very fussy about wear and tear/looseness. Thanks again for your help. I am gonna move over to WIZZKID's thread on this P3600/P3600i non-starting issue since I am in the wrong section of the forum. Thanks to all those who assisted...
[P3600 Software Upgrading] foxuniform:
Got a second P3600i and it did the same thing - a hard reset fixed the problem.

[General Questions and Answers] Nyxell:
So, I got a Galaxy Win 2 or Core Prime (SM-G360M) and I came here to see If there were ROMS, TWRP support and all that good stuff for it, but I cant seem to find anything for this especific model, but I found some for other models like

SM-G360F

SM-G360FY

SM-G360G

SM-G360GY

SM-G360T

SM-G360T1

So, my question is, are any of those also working on the SM-G460M, or is it only estrictly for those models?

All help is highly appreciated.

(Sorry if this is on the wrong section, I just joined the site)

[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers] iteonix:
Hi,

I have the ZUK Z2 64gb version with Nougat ZUI 2.5.104 ST. I am here requestion confirmation about an issue.

Whenever I play music (Poweramp) in my phone the notification sounds are getting mute even after closing the music player. The player doesn't run in bg or in the background in pause or as a service. But the notification sounds are not back until I restart the phone. If I play music again then I have to restart the phone again. I am missing too many important messages becasue of this.

Please someone confirm if this is a known issue or if there is any way to clear it.

If only Nougat has this problem, is it feasible to rollback to Marshmallow stock rom? :confused: :confused:

On a side note I also have few more bugs. I receive two notifications from every app. Fingerprint doesn't unlock my phone sometimes.
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers] adil786ali63:
The zui 2.5.104 is quite buggy to use... No user prefers to use it... This problem of yours could be a bug ... Change the rom... Try some other custom rom like jaguar or crdroid or aex.... You will experience very minimal bugs or none and boost in performance too... But if you still want a stock experience then there is a chinese version of zui 2.5.412 available with very few bugs... Flash it and enjoy... Good luck :)
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers] DemiurgoX:
hi, i have the same problem, hmm kinda, i just open a thread telling what my problem is about, could you test if your notification sound stops working when during a call while youre getting mesages
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers] DemiurgoX:
and zui 1.9.044 is the only fully working rom you can find (from zui versions)
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers] vuckovic_stefan:
I think I also have this problem... But I'm not sure if notifications sound disappeared after few messages in messenger fb , or is the music playback making that sounds disappear.

I uninstalled messenger today , listen also music, going back and fourth from silent to regular profile, and notifications sound didn't disappear. Maybe the culprit was Messenger. I will test more. I'm on franco86 v15 2.3 Chinese rom as a base.

---------- Post added at 05:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:28 AM ----------

That's the first Chinese mm rom? You used it?
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers] DemiurgoX:
yes, first chinese mm rom, im currently using it, its the only zui version which doesnt have tones during calls when receiving messages, so it doesnt mess with my notification sound, if you use zui 2.0.xxx + version, pls check this:way to reproduce problem: make a call and start sending lots of messages from another phone to zuk, during the call which zuk is making,put it on speaker so you can hear the tones, eventually the tones will get messy, then hang up, send another message, done, no more notification sound.
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers] vuckovic_stefan:
Maybe thats how it happend to me and also to OP of this thread. I will test today and report back. I'm staying on this MM for ZUK, Nougat is plagued with some bugs which i dont like :). Hotspot being most imortant for me, than GPS and also double notifications...

Im waiting for stable Gizrom 3 from FRANCO86, he didnt fix those problems in last release, maybe they are hard to fix...

I was thinkig about Jaguar also...
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers] DemiurgoX:
jaguar works as good as aex 4.6 man and so do viperos and crdroid all the same, but fingerprint sensor wont unlock phone sometimes, and camera is dark when recording, i really wish a dev could take a look into this problem of notification sound, im so near to figure out, like i said im 92% sure its the tone during a call when receiving a message that mess with the notification sound, like it were desconnected from the system, zui 1.9.044 doesnt have those "tones" therefore no notification problem, but FS is not thta good in the pocket to prevent accidental dial, and facebook and messenger crash all the time, only facebook lite work normally
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers] vuckovic_stefan:
You are talking about custom ROMs and notifications sound or only Zui?

I tested and for now notifications stay on after listening of music and also during calls when notifications arrive. Sound can be heard but that doesn't affect notifications. I sent from other phone few notifications. Didn't bombard it though.

Yes camera is always drawback on custom ROMs. But I read camera blobs help a lot, you get almost same quality as on stock? Did you tried also camera blobs? If you were using aex 4.6 than they are built in.
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers] DemiurgoX:
only zui has that problem, you need to bombard it so the tones get messy just a few messages doesnt make it stop thou, and yes i tried everything, motorola moto g4 gen camera is the only one without the dark camera bug, but focus sucks badly, dude this notiofication problem gotta be general, cos on zui 1.9.044 it doesnt happen to me, only if i update zui to 2.0.xxx and above
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers] vuckovic_stefan:
Man now I bombarded my phone with 50 notifications during call and notifications sound stayed good. I think in my case I had problem with fb messenger.

Because I also have fb lite and they where coming up simultaneously.

Also I set manually sounds in every app ...

Did you try to use Google camera? Or the one from opo?

For now I'm staying with this rom 2.3 by Franco , beside one time loosing notifications sound this rom works perfectly
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers] DemiurgoX:
are you using stock zui or the one almost stock by franco?
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers] vuckovic_stefan:
2.3.042 v15 multilingual by Franco 86
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers] DemiurgoX:
can you give me a link? i only found 2.5 franco 76

[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers] DemiurgoX:
thank you very much ill give it a try
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers] vuckovic_stefan:
Nothing man, I hope you will be satisfied :).

For me this is great rom.

Of course I would like Zui 2.5 with latest security patches but this will be available in Gizrom I think (same developer, franco86), hope they will fix nougat bugs.
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers] DemiurgoX:
i wish any zui didnt have that notification issue im facing :( so sad man, im almost trading off for a mi note 3 with way lower specs, i cant find a solution to my problem :(, gonna test 2.3 by franco now, ill let you know

---------- Post added at 07:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:27 PM ----------

wait, so you did lose your notification sound? once?

---------- Post added at 07:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:34 PM ----------

so just did the test and still problem persists, like i said zui 1.9.044 is the only one working good for me, but once in a while the system crash and reboot
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers] vuckovic_stefan:
Didn't quite understand, you flashed 2.3 and had that problem again?

I tested last night with almost 50 notifications, sound for notifications didn't disappear.

You had system crash and reboot? Never had that...
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers] DemiurgoX:
when i use zui 1.9 notification works normally, 1.9 is the one which crashes from time to time, any other updated zui the problem show up, did you put your device on speaker so yu could hear the notification tones? i dont know what to do man, im so sad , i spent 800 buck(brazilian money)=270 dollars, the problem ios present in franco76 zui 2.3 and franco76 zui 2.5 i doubt this is a hardware problem, cos on custom roms it works perfectly, only zui screw me up :'( do the test send messages from messaging app, pls

---------- Post added at 08:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:55 PM ----------

do you have any idea to prevent messages from making sound(not sound tones) while im on a call? with root or any app that requires root?
[Android Head-Units] MiOBi:
Hi all,

I wish to buy a new unit for my car - VW Polo 2011.

I currently own an Ownice C200 unit, and to be honest... I'm not too keen on buying another unit from Ownice,

due to the fact their after-sale support is utterly terrible.

However, they do seem to be the only manufacture offering a unit with an IPS + OGS screen, as per the latest C500+ product,

and also a built-in 4G sim reader; Both of these features are what I'm after actually.

1. Has anyone of you already own this product? If so, does it really make a difference? i.e. screen brightness / readability under day light, viewing angels, colors, etc.

2. Is Ownice really the only manufacturer to have such a screen and 4G in its units? :confused:

I'm simply afraid that I would end up buying Ownice again, due to no availability of competing products... :silly:

I checked out Joying, but I couldn't find any 'advanced' features as the above...

Can you recommend other brands/manufactures?

Thank you!:)
[Android Head-Units] MiOBi:
Anyone to help? :( :confused:
[Android Head-Units] MiOBi:
So... is there a reason why no one would reply? :D Perhaps my questions are not understandable?

I wanted to know if I should buy it tomorrow on 11.11 or not... ;)

Basically they are very simple as far as I see them:

1. Is Ownice the only Android Head Unit to include a 4G SIM reader?

2. Does Ownice currently offer the best screen in this field?

Thank you..
[Android Head-Units] coolest35:
1. Yes, it seems like it. Make sure the bands work with your network provided.. otherwise it won't be useful.

2. They're all the same screen (as long as you compare same resolution)

As for buying it tomorrow.. thats up to you. Check out the Ownice thread to see what issues current owners have.
[Android Head-Units] MiOBi:
Really? I actually thought the 2.5D Glass + IPS + OGS (One Glass Screen) solution was a new innovation from Ownice,

as in, this was the upgrade from C500 to C500+.

What about the MT3562 inside it... will it ever support Nougat or laughably Oreo?
[Android Head-Units] coolest35:
So 2.5D Glass, and OGS are trivial when it comes to how it looks when your screen resolution is only 1080x600, aspect ratio of 1.8:1.. thus making your Pixel Density (PPI) ~56? Your smartphone is like >300.

Also, i just looked at the 500+ specs, its a TFT screen.. not IPS.
[Android Head-Units] MiOBi:
So they false advertising?
[Android Head-Units] coolest35:
I don't know.. this is the model listed on their website: http://www.ownice.com/Pro_Head Unit_450.html

Not sure if they have changed specs and haven't updated their website.

Where did you get that spec from.

Also, its a marginal increase.. like I said.. its a low resolution display.. not going to be a night and day difference between IPS and TFT.
[Android Head-Units] MiOBi:
It's taken from here:

https://www.aliexpress.com/item//32817585183.html

and I realize it's not going to be a night and day difference, but surely it's better than C200's screen.

To begin with, C200's screen seems to be have a plastic outer layer, so today it's full of micro-scratches.

Also, in day-light, it's quite DIM, so I hoped C500+'s would be much brighter...?

I wonder if anyone of the forum members have received this unit already and could tell whether or not the screen is much of an upgrade or not.
[Android Head-Units] coolest35:
Probably is... hopefully someone can tell you the difference.

[Lenovo Zuk Z2 Pro Questions & Answers] Lukyno:
Did anyone notice jelly scrolling on your display -> similar to OP5 case? -> https://www.theverge.com/2017/6/29/1...ling-statement

I did some research and came to this conclusion: It's actually not a problem. It's kind of FEATURE. Or flaw to be precise. AMOLED display are causing this issue, which is not visible to everyone (depend on eyesight). But it's not noticable if display is correctly installed in device. If it's installed upside down, it's noticeable. Similar issue got OP5. Just try to open browser, turn your phone upside down and start scrolling -> you wont notice jelly effect anymore (if you can see jelly effect in normal orientation of display). Strange that ZUK or OP didn't think about it during developing their phone. Such a pity. But nevertheless, we got some special FEATURE :)

Hi All,

After flashing a downgrade from Nougat back to Marshmallow with a stockrom from Xperifirm, the touch screen of my Sony Xperia XA F3111 is low responsive and lagging. I tried multiple Marshmallow roms, some calibrate apps, but nothing really works. I have the impression that it is a software issue, because with some Roms the touch screen performs better. I have no clue what i could try next, because i cannot find related info for it.
