After updating, you probably need to boot straight to TWRP and reflash root. If you boot directly to the OS, it'll automatically replace TWRP with the stock recovery.

I like to change screen density, debloat system apps, install Viper4Android, install boot scripts (LiveBoot, etc) and a bunch of other things. With Magisk, as long as I don't wipe /data, all of that will still be intact after a system update. And even if I wipe data I can restore a backup of the Magisk image or just flash the module zips in TWRP. Takes seconds rather than half an hour like it could prior to Magisk.
[Magisk] niko26:
Well, TWRP is gone after an update - I can't boot into it. :(

Hm, I am not sure if I get you right. If it is about apps, I use Titanium Backup to recover my old apps+settings.
[Magisk] automattic:
system files

Most of the setting you mentioned are messing with the system files. "debloating" or removing and system applications with titanium backup will fail a system check with OTA update. You can freeze the apps i believe.

I changing the screen density and boot scripts. These are all system files locations.

I have had an ota work be re-installing the system apps from titanium backup and reverting all the other changes when it was failing before. Think this was back on android 6.0 though.
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
Since all of the things I mentioned are done with Magisk, none of them will cause an OTA to fail...

Reinstalling system apps will not work, since nowadays an OTA will fail just by mounting /system as rw.

Hi guys, trying to install latest OTA patch for Pixel 2. I am assuming process would be the same. I tried to follow the guide but hit the bump immediately. I can't see "Restore Stock Boot" when pressing uninstall. But there is restore images option. Hitting it does nothing, I receive the message that there are no backups. Where does the backup go so I can put the original file for it to be reinstalled?
[Essential Phone Accessories] jay_em113:
Has anyone found any cheap chargers that can charge this phone like the Essential charger does (really fast)? I have bought two different chargers and neither of them can really even charge the phone. The lock screen says it's charging slowly, and the battery meter acts like it's charging, but it doesn't actually charge. The chargers were both Quick Charge 3.0 chargers too. None of my old phone chargers with a type-c adapter will charge the phone either.
[Essential Phone Accessories] JasonJoel:
Have you tried different cables?

Every charger I own will charge this phone. My Samsung, pixel, Motorola, etc usb type-c chargers will all work.
[Essential Phone Accessories] Tikerz:
The phone requires a USB PD (Power Delivery) charger for rapid charging. It must have 5V@3A and 9V@3A.

It doesn't support Qualcomm's Quick Charge.

I ordered this one and it rapid charges. It supports 5V/3A, 9V/3A, 15V/ 3A, 20V/2.25A

[Essential Phone Accessories] pvlietst:
My MacBook pro adapter :D
[Essential Phone Accessories] jay_em113:
Thanks! Now, what about if I wanted it to just charge normally (not rapidly or slowly) for if if I wanted to leave it charging overnight? Don't think I need to spend the extra money on rapid chargers for that scenario...
[Essential Phone Accessories] Tikerz:
No idea. Honestly, I don't know of anyone who consciously needs to control the speed of their charge. I avoid charging overnight by rapid charging during the day at work.
[Essential Phone Accessories] hs911:
does it really need PD? they are kind of expensive and there are chargers out there with 5V, 6V, 9V, 12V @ 3A

e.g.:

[Essential Phone Accessories] compuguy1088:
Actually, It *does* support QC 3.0 and USB PD.
[Essential Phone Accessories] Tikerz:
Essential confirmed on their subreddit that it does not support Qualcomm Quick Charge. It supports USB PD.
[Essential Phone Accessories] compuguy1088:
Then why does the phone indicate it's rapidly charging when plugged into a QC 3.0 charger then?
[Essential Phone Accessories] Tikerz:
I'm not sure how Android is programmed to display "Rapidly Charging", but I'm sure it's not by charging standard. Probably based on supplied power, but it definitely doesn't charge as fast as the stock charger. I noticed this with my QC chargers. It will say rapidly charging for a couple minutes and then just not charge at all or say charging slowly. Frustrating as hell so I bought an extra USB PD charger.
[Essential Phone Accessories] JasonJoel:
My Samsung chargers all work, and charge the phone to 100%. They just say charging, not quick charging, but whatever... The % goes up.
[Essential Phone Accessories] mazubo:
Try using the Ampere app on the Play store. It will show you what amounts of current etc is being used to charge the phone..

(from AliExpress Android)

I ordered this. Won't be here for awhile though as it's coming from China. I brought the essential because it was cheap, might as well stick to the theme.
[Essential Phone Accessories] bavarianblessed:
Yeah...it doesn't. I'm such a tool I assumed it did and bought two Ankar QC3 wall chargers and a Tronsmart QC3 car charger. None of them are able to charge the phone at all, says that it's charging slowly but doesn't seem as though it's charging at all.
[Essential Phone Accessories] VennligFiende:
Phone needs a charger with USB-C Power Delivery and not QC. Anker has at least one model and Incipio has one as well. There are many others on Amazon.. The cool thing about those is that they also change my XPS-13. Only carry one charger when I travel.
[Essential Phone Accessories] Ghost_1:
I've got a few QC 2/3 chargers and a few USB-C PD chargers and what I've found is that depending on which USB-C to USB-A makes a difference whether I get rapid charge or not.

I'm slowly converting over to USB-C to USB-C but it is stupid expensive for some things like the power packs with USB-C...

Anyway, try a few different cables and see if it works for you, also it seems to work a tiny bit better on the Oreo Beta however my QC 2.0 car charger doesn't charge as fast as it did on 7.1.1 but luckily the car chargers are the cheapest USB-C PD items to buy, roughly about the same price as a cable.

One last note, the same charger and cable don't always go into rapid charging mode so replugging the cable in sometime kicks in rapid mode for me.
[Essential Phone Accessories] Zargone:
What is the best car charger?
[Essential Phone Accessories] wrapper:
Haven't tried it, but something like this with USB PD sounds like it would be good - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Charger-Delivery-Output-Adaptor-Samsung/dp/B01M2BLLVN/

I had my phone plugged into a regular USB jack on a car this weekend and the battery didn't charge at all
[Essential Phone Accessories] Zargone:
Alas, not available in the US...
[Essential Phone Accessories] dknight:
it's available on US Amazon site for $16.99 do a search for "Power Delivery"
[Essential Phone Accessories] mrcooter:
Direct from Essential when I contacted them about getting a spare. Stated they recommend chargers that are certified for Pixel devices. Not sure how helpful that is but thought I would at least relay that information.
[Essential Phone Accessories] ryocho:
I ordered this charger because I want an extra USB port. Can confirm that it works as well as the one that came with the phone.

Only issue is that the first one I got the USB C port would lose connection sometimes and you have to unplug the cable and plug it back in for it to work again. I sent a message to the seller on Amazon and received a replacement that works perfectly.
[Essential Phone Accessories] tech_head:
I wound up getting a second factory charger and headphone adapter from eBay.

Someone was selling accessories and not the phone for $30.
[Essential Phone Accessories] Croak:
I've been very happy with this one so far, PD certified, charges rapidly, and is well made (aluminum, not plastic housing) and the little bit of bright aluminum chamfer matches my car's interior silver trim.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B075WSC1J9/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

At $20, it's one of the most expensive USB C PD chargers, but it does come with a built in C cable, and some freebies if you "View Promotion Details" you can get a set of 10 metal plates (for magnetic car holders) or a micro-USB-A to USB-C adapter for free (both normally sell for $6.00). . Personally, I think every USB-C device owner should have one of those little adapters in their kit for "emergency" use.
[Essential Phone Accessories] hs911:
i decided to order this one: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/L-I...C-3-0-Power-Charge-Universal/32824662451.html because i hope it has QC3 on the USB-A Port and RD on USB-C
[Essential Phone Accessories] chenleo1992:
I also noticed my phone charges fast on QC 2.0 charger. Find it a little tricky that need to have the right upside to plug in even it's usb c symmetric.

[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Curry monster:
Purchased brand new Sony z5 ( E-6633) dual SIM , which was brought back from Dubai by a friend who works out there. Gave it to the mrs for christmas 2017. Great phone worked fine until a week ago when I checked to see if there were any updates available. There were at least 2 possibly 3 that the phone down loaded. These brought the phone up to date with what was available from Sony. I'm afraid I'm not sure of the version but 7.0 rings a bell.

I noticed that when touching the fingerprint scanner the phone said that the hardware was not available also there was no reception dispite standing within spitting distance of mobile phone antenna. I decided to press the power button and reset the phone in the hope to reset everything, no chance, this is where it all went down hill. The phone no longer turns on.

I have tried:

Power button.

Volume up and power button.

Volume down and power button.

Charging phone ( it was at 50% when trouble hit)

With the above button presses the red led was blinking when on charge.

Tried Xperia companion.

Then I tried short press and long press(120 sec) of the off button under SIM card cover. No joy, but what has changed now is no flashing red led when the charger is plugged in.

Also when connecting to a pc the computer does not acknowledge anything being plugged in ie mass storage device detected etc.

Can anyone explain what has happened. And options to fix it.

The phone is not rooted.

I am keen to retreave the photos and contacts etc.

Ideas so far are:

Send back to friend in Dubai which is quite involved, will probably lose photos.

Send to forensic lab to retreave photos etc. Will this damage the phone? Haven't made enquiry yet.

Go to local repair shop to flash/ repair operating system but believe this will erase photos if it works at all

Or

Ask you guys for a solution.

Hope I've given you enough info if there is anything else you need let me know.

Ps the phone had a 2gb sd card in it which was full and phone memory was at around 80 % full.

Regards Curry Monster.

Hi all. Got a bit of a problem. I have a Iconia B1-850 that I lent to my nephew. He has synced it to a google account, reset the tablet (I don't know why) and forgotten the password. No biggy. I can get to the build number in about quite easily. However, regardless of how many times I press build number, I am unable to get the developer options up. I know once I get it how to procede but at this point I am stuck. The tablet has Lollipop 5.1 with a build nuber of Acer_AV0L0_B1-850_E.003.00_WW_GEN1.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] sn0warmy:
It's no secret that premature screen burn-in is an issue with the 2 XL. And at this point there are a few solutions to prevent it from happening to you right from the beginning, such as enabling full immersive mode, using Nav Bar Apps to change the nav bar color per app, or Pie Control to replace the bottom nav bar completely.

However, this doesn't help those who've already experienced screen burn-in on their phone. This morning I stumbled across an article that discussed how to fix screen burn-in on the Galaxy S8 and prevent it from happening again. What really caught my eye with this article is the mentioning of a screen burn-in fixer app that reverses screen burn-in. Until now, I didn't think it was possible to reverse screen burn-in so now I'm very curious. However, reviews of this app on the play store are saying it reversed the screen burn-in for S8 owners, within minutes.

Since I've been in full immersive mode with Pie Control from the beginning, I don't have burn-in to test this with. So I wanted to post here to see if someone who has some screen burn-in on their 2 XL would be willing to test this app and let us know if it does, in fact, reverse your screen burn-in.

I'm very intrigued by this. If it does work then it would appear that this screen burn-in issue is not nearly as big of a deal as previously thought, since it can be easily fixed.

Here is a link to the app in question:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/...edburninfix&rdid=com.tinyroar.amoledburninfix

and a link tot he article that discusses it:

100,000 downloads but have not heard of any Pixel members using it. U may be the first... thanks
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] sn0warmy:
The problem is my phone doesn't have burn-in because I've been full immersive mode since minute 1. so I'm not a good person to test it. We need to find someone with burn-in to run a before/after test. Ideally, a before picture of their phone showing the nav bar burn-in then an after picture showing the same screen area, ideally without the burn-in.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Heisenberg420:
Haven't looked in detail but most of these apps invert the colors around the problem areas to even out the differential aging. "Burn in" as people call it is the pixels in (for ex) the nav bar buttons aging faster than the pixels in the nav bar background. So when displaying a uniform color those more mature pixels appear to stand out. So the theory is to expedite the aging process of the pixels around the buttons to even out the differential aging on those pixels. So in theory it should work if what you're trying to do is even out differential aging.

The nav bar isn't strictly burn in, it's the opposite. Because the nav bar is usually black the rest of the screen "burns in" earlier.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] danlat1415:

My manufacture date was 7th October, so one of first batches.

Google RMA'd it straight away once I sent them a photo of it.

My replacement isn't as bad, but does have burn-in on the top and bottom nav bars.

I'm waiting a few months then RMA again, should be better quality screens coming out now.
