[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] machostallion:
I'm looking for a case that has very low sides. The sides of the case can't be much higher than the screen. Right at screen level would be ideal for me]. I use the 2 XL in immersive mode and use pie in LMT for all nav bar operations. If the side of the case is too high, it is sometimes difficult to access pie easily every time. I've found if I adjust the pie touch area too much, it interferes with other screen taps. I've got the Spidgen right now, but its sides are a bit to tall. I started looking at all of the cases overall thickness, but found this isn't necessarily reliable in determining how high the side go above the screen (some cases just have thicker back protection).
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] MrMeeseeks:
I have this one

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B074...=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=pixel+2+xl+case

It doesn't add much bulk and the edges are barely higher than the screen. I thought it might be flush but sat a pencil on it and there is maybe a millimeter or 2 gap where the screen won't touch the surface.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] machostallion:
Thanks. I'll give that one a look. The price looks good too.

I also bought a MNML as it does cover the camera bump. I want to see if I want front screen protection or not.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] gettingerr:
The Google Fabric Case has a very tiny lip. I use it with pie controls and it works excellent. Bonus is that the screen is protected face down ever so slightly, and the fabric looks nice and professional.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] branshaw09:
The camera hump protected from flat surfaces because the lip that is built around the fingerprint scanner. I have one and when laying flat you can see a gap between any flat surface and the camera screen. If you're ok with minimal protection I highly recommend the MNML case.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] machostallion:
Thanks. I'll look at again. Are Mnml case sides at screen height or slightly above?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] Shawheim:
They are right below screen height
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] NeutronBomb:
My MNML showed up today.. box was all bent, case was all folded and creased. Unusable. Sent a message to the company, we shall see how they respond.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] machostallion:
So I ended up ordering a Mnml case. I ordered the clear black. Got the package from Amazon today. Box says its clear black. I open it up and the case is blue. That's not the best part. The case has no cutout for the finger print sensor. Also, the cutouts for the volume and power buttons are on the left side instead of right. There was also an extra button cutout on the right side all the way and the top. That's some quality control and checks.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] henderjr:
Sounds like you got the wrong case in your box. Bummer

[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] machostallion:
Looks OK but damn it's expensive for what it is.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] xzr3b0rnzx:
Yeah price is on the steep side.

My advice is just invest in 1 good case especially for an expensive phone and have no regrets. Haha u should consider
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] machostallion:
You're probably right. Could you post some close up picks in this thread of the screen and case bezels when you get it? Thanks.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] xzr3b0rnzx:
yeah sure no problem man
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] theBeachBoy:
There is a QA problem with MNML...

I got the exact same thing... And the box says Pixel 2 XL black.. blue no reader cutout, buttons wrong side... That pisses me off that I have to send back to Amazon.

Could someone help me bring this to life??? What I'm unsure about is how do i make the buttons act like buttons, as in changing to a different overlay when selected, so it looks like the button is pushed in. Creating the new 'overlay' image is no problem for me, the problem is the functionality, how do i actually make it do it. Too bad this isn't javacsript, where u could just a simple onMouseOver...

Any help appreciated.

[General Questions and Answers] licensedtoquill:
I am trying to root a T-Mobile Galaxy Exhibit 11 (SGT679) running 2.3.6 and have put the CWM zip file (a beta version is the only one i have managed to download, - I cant find a valid link to cwm.6012.t679.zip) on the SD card to install in preparation. I can get into recovery and can get to the 'install from SD' but whatever I put on the sd, I cant see the individual files to install.

once in recovery I can see the directories on the SD card but not the individual zip (or apk) files to click on to install!

The only other odd problem is that I cant get the phone seen in windows to install anything through Odin, but I cant see that as being related to the recovery problem. I enabled debug and the device IS Seen by windows but no ALLOW white screen appears on the phone to let the phone show up in file explorer.

(most activity on the Exhibit forum seems to have stopped some years ago)
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] insertmynamethere:
I need to revive a dead battery and was wondering if there was anyway I could charge a dead battery that's removed from the phone
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schumifer1:
If it is totally dead and there is no sign as to where plus and minus are then it can get weird. But batteries often hold a little bit charge and so it should be relaltively easy to just take a polymeter, find the + and the - and charge it directly with 5 volts
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SysGhost:
Personally I use a universal LiPo charger that can take most different types of LiPo cells.

Example: https://www.alibaba.com/product-det...r-industrial-battery-charger_60558441538.html

But as the battery in the xperia Z5c is an internal one, it does not have any easily accessible terminals, one have to do some macGyver trickery to connect it to a universal charger.

One can also feed the battery directly with 5 volts (overvolting it slightly), but one have to be really careful and monitor the battery temperature not to allow it to exceed 50 degree Celsius.

This method should be the absolutely last resort, as a lipo battery fire/explosion is not fun to experience. Also, one should only use this method for a very short time (around 10 to 30 seconds) at a time. Just enough to bring a battery above the discharge threshold. Then continue the charge with a normal charging cycle with a proper lipo charger. Keep in mind that a lipo cell that has been dicharged belov the safety threshold should be considered a dead battery. Even if one is able to "revive" it, the risk of swelling/fire/explosion is considerably larger.

I'd also like to add this video about charging Lipo cells that are below the "threshold": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A6mKd5_-abk&feature=youtu.be&t=14m54s

With that in mind, have you tried simply letting your phone sit with the charger connected? Many Android devices won't show any sign of life during the Pre-charge mode, and won't even boot up. They will appear as dead. But they are charging. It just takes time for it to pass the pre-charge mode.

In my case, when I "killed" my Xperia Z5c's battery, it took it 6 hours before showing any signs of life. But it did came back to life again without any external influence.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schumifer1:
Well said min vän.

I would also suggest just 30-60 seconds of charging and then check the voltage, when it gets over 3 it should be OK to get charged but the phone itself

[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] mackentosh:
You can hide your navigation bar using the "Custom Navigation Bar" app. It works great, no root needed just Grant permission using adb. It'll definitely give your screen more real estate and prevent screen burn ins. Just swipe up and the navigation bar reappears with a transparent background.

[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] king23adrianc:
can use adb to hide only navigation bar, or only status bar or both.

i am currently hiding only navigation bar and loving it so far.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] mackentosh:
Hiding the status bar doesn't work well with device, it throw off the touch sensor, for example if you were to try and click on a link you couldn't youd have to touch just below the link to click the link
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] ad78:
Im going to buy the pro as im very satisfied on it. The youtube is displaying correctly vs the layout was offering to the other thread.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] king23adrianc:
yes that's why I said did adb hide navigation bar only

yes youtube is weird. so I chose adb hide navigation bar except youtube, launcher, camera and photos.

i uninstalled layout. instead i whitelist "*" then install custom navigation bar

all my apps were full screen now and youtube is full screen as well.

[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] mackentosh:

[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] TheDethEgineer:
thats because essential removed the whitelist since the last 2 Nougat builds

i dont like this. try youtube, remove the navbar and full screen on landscape, the aspect ratio is very odd

Great info was looking for something like this.

With custom nav bar the keyboard pops up like it is suppose to.

with the other app the keyboard had problems displaying, bought the pro version.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] tech_head:
No need for an App.

· Hide Status Bar only type:

adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.status=*

· Hide Navigation Bar only type:

adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.navigation=*

· Hide Both Bars type:

adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.full=*

· Back to normal/default state:

adb shell settings put global policy_control null*

Exclude Google apps

adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.navigation=apps,-com.android.chrome,-com.android.vending,-com.google.android.gm,-com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] qnc:
Thanks :good: :highfive:

This is even better no app just a command line. I hid the navigation bar that makes the screen look so much larger with just that. I like having the notifications on the top.

Now if anyone knows a way to get notifications badges like oreo by command line I would be all set. :laugh:
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] spotmark:
I wanted this to work so badly, but so far I haven't found any solution for getting rid of the nav bar that doesn't have some kind of ill effect. The command line worked, but for me anyway, it caused my screen to lag coming on. I would get phone calls, but couldn't answer them because the screen wouldn't wake in time.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] tech_head:
It is important to exclude the Google Apps.

You must do that or face possible issues because the phone may not sleep.
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] spotmark:
Ah, I see, thank you. Can I execute that command line just like you have it?

Just enter the command exactly.

Why are you doing "adb device"
[Essential Phone Themes, Apps, and Mods] qnc:
I entered it exactly and got the error.

I ran the abd device command to see if the phone is still connected. was just trying to test why the command threw an error.

It appears that it worked even though i got he error message. i now see the nav bar in the google apps.
