No issues at all. Screen protector fit perfectly from day one and it applied fast.
[Moto Z2 Force  Guides, News, & Discussion] Drewc4xx:
Removed Plastic coating

My screen was scratched pretty bad so I removed the plastic screen. I used a heat gun and digital thermometer and did the same steps as you would replacing the digitizer. You can heat the screen up to 180 to 200 degrees without damaging the board,screen, or and digitizer. It can go higher but don't push it this the only fragile part of the phone I found so far but it is. I used a razor blade after heating the screen up and at the corner carefully to start peeling the coating and once you get started a little at the corner start using the cards Don't pull on the plastic when the glue soften because you will be pulling the screen the rest of the plastic is still stuck to use playing cards to get between the lcd and the plastic coating which is basically a factory installed screen protector with a lot of sticky glue. Don't force the card push as far as you can with light pressure when it won't progress any further stop and heat the screen up again grab another playing card and continue to use cards to take that plastic coating off. And you want to leave the cards as you go. When done you are going to have to clean the residue off it will take a little time but when your done put on a high end protector like I used the Za??. My screen works perfectly to the touch and those scratches are not there except one and is was the san andreas fault of scratches before I took the coating off..
[Moto Z2 Force  Guides, News, & Discussion] JAWheat411:
I removed mine also. Although I used a less technical method. I just pulled the top layer off and then spent some time scratching at the screen with my fingernail and using alcohol to help with the glue. Took a while for sure. I heard Goo Gone works great for me this.
[Moto Z2 Force  Guides, News, & Discussion] mineownself:
I got my Z2 Force shortly after the launch date last year, and I have had zero issues with it. It's obvious that the shattershield screen is easily scratched, so I put a screen protector on it right away and it remains scratch free to this day. There's a lot of bad screen protectors out there these days that are warped and won't stay adhered to the screen, so it's important to look at those reviews to make sure you get a good one. I should also note that I constantly flip my phone around in my hand for some reason and I end up dropping it all the time, and I still have had no issues at all. There's not a sign of peeling anywhere.
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trove:
Hi!

When I'm charging my surnia with LineageOS 14.1 on board over night I wake up to singing birds instead of an alarm and my phone greets me with encryption pattern screen and pretty hot battery. After unlocking it, some (!) of the data is lost, like system settings, some applications settings (text size, alarms and so on), yesterday Home and Overview button didn't work until I did a factory reset (which is what I usually have to do, because there's always something wrong with the system). I've tried two different chargers. What works is a powerbank, that turns off after the phone has been fully charged. I'm thinking of changing maximum percentage to which phone can be charged on software-side, but I'll have to look into this.

Have anyone ever had a problem like this? Or maybe you have a possible solution?

Cheers!

please someone help me for getting custom rom for panasonic p66 :(:(:(:(:(:(:crying::crying::crying:
[Connected Car] Nandovee:
Good evening everyone.

I am a new user, and have decided to purchase a Chinese headunit for my car.

Now ive been reading stuff about customer roms, malaysk, etc etc, and my head is spinning with it all. so I have a couple of questions if you kond people can assist I would be grateful.

- I am going to purchase either a Eonon GA7153 2gb running android 6.0 or a Xtrons pa97mtvpl 2gb running android 7.1 - my question is simply which is better, more reliable and likely to have longevity.

- second, are customer roms available for either of these two units, and if so in laymans terms what does it do? what are benefits? what are risks etc?

Like I said all help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

:)
[Connected Car] WoodenKen:
Hey mate, did you end up getting one? From going down this road and deciding against it, and reading lots of stuff, it seems a little hit and miss with these headsets. If you can get one with warranty etc that would be your best bet. Otherwise if you have the $$, get a good Kenwood, JVC or Sony one with Android Auto integration. Or better still, using a head unit and tablet, or just tablet and amp :)
[Connected Car] charlieworton:
I installed a Chinese car stereo/DVD/GPS in my Honda Civic in 2012, and was satisfied with the purchase. It was powered by WinCE, which is an operating system I do NOT recommend. The Android OS is supported, and there is a huge amount of 3rd party software. By comparison, Microsoft has largely terminated support for WinCE, and there are no 3rd party applications available.

My advice would be to purchase the latest version of Android available, and the most capable processor; that would be the largest number of cores, and the highest clock speed. Also get the largest available RAM and ROM configurations. The reason for getting the best hardware configuration available is to minimize start up lag, and improve responsiveness with the latest OS. With the best hardware, the Chinese units are very responsive. Even less capable hardware platforms respond well, but take longer to start up.

Be aware that many units have identical front panels, but are very different inside. One way of determining whether you're getting the same hardware is to look at the rear of the unit (if they show a photo). Different hardware will almost always have a different plug layout on the back. If the rear of the deck is identical, there's a good chance that the decks you're comparing have identical hardware.

Chinese head units often offer features that are not available on locally sold units. For example, my unit allowed me to stick any CD into the reader, and it would copy it at high speed into memory, where it would reside forever. This kind of feature is not available in most areas, due to copyright infringement laws.

Custom wiring harnesses are usually supplied with the unit, as are plastic shells and trim pieces that allow it to merge seamlessly into the dash and look like a factory install. When searching for your unit, include your automobile name (Focus, Alantra, Civic) in the search term. This will bring up units that will fit your vehicle. Because dash layouts change over time, search results will include terms like 'Focus 2002 2007' which tells you that the particular unit will fit all Ford Focus vehicles between the years specified. Don't put the specific year of your vehicle in as a search term; it will just muddle the results. My Civic was supplied with a huge plastic dash panel, several times the size of the unit. But it clipped seamlessly into place, and made the unit look like it came from the factory that way.

In general, Chinese auto head units offer excellent value; they perform as well or better than locally available units. My sister spent $1,500 for a top of the line Clarion, and was so disgusted with it she gave it away, after several angry verbal exchanges with the shop that sold it to her. I tried working with it as well, and found it to be so buggy as to be impossible to use. By comparison, the $300 I spent bought me an excellent, well performing unit.

Regarding updating device tree its upto him ..when he wants to push the updated codes /commits .

The only thing you as an user can do is just enjoy whatever you are getting or roll back to previous android version or go back to stock miui or get a new device which you think has a great development in Oreo .. ;)

Hi, i am trying to see if it's possible to flash SM-N950U (ATT firmware) onto the TGY (Hong Kong dual sim) SM-N9500?

If the TGY is 64G RAM, then i am guessing everything is the same except dual sim internally, so should I just be able to flash the stock ROM?

How about if the TGY is 256G RAM? having different RAM size could be problem, I am guessing.

I don't know much about these except i can follow step-by-step instructions quite well.

Thanks in advance.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Kalm_Traveler:
1. I'm not sure how you plan to do this - Odin won't let you flash other devices or even different variants of the same base model so you will need to use TWRP and a flashable ZIP

2. Not sure about the Snapdragon models but the Exynos models are all identical hardware - IE my Korean N950N still has 2 SIM slots even though it is not sold as a dual-SIM phone.

3. You mean storage, flash memory, not RAM. All the Note 8's have 6GB RAM. As for the question - it shouldn't matter. I've used N950F ROMs (which I believe are all 64gb capacity so far) on my 256gb N950N and I still had the full amount of storage available.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] peoples_flip:

Was anyone ever able to get it done? I have a n9500 Hong Kong version, dual sim, 256gb and i’d like to flash it to be able to get everything running on it like Wi-Fi calling and other features. Got this version because I’d like to have the dual sim for traveling and the 256gb for lots of storage. I’m originally on AT&T.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Kalm_Traveler:
Odin won't let you flash firmware for another model, but if you root you can flash ROMs for identical hardware (IE on the Exynos versions the 950N Korean models can run 950F-based flashable zip ROMs just fine because both 950N and 950F are identical hardware).

The main thing as far as features go would be band support on the modem, as I understand that the N9500 and N950U are both Snapdragon models I would assume you guys can run 950U-based ROMs, but I have no idea about the 9500's LTE bands support in relation to AT&T (I'm on T-Mobile so they are the only USA carrier I was concerned with when I opted for the N950N).

Can I update the firmware of N950F into SM-N950U?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] innocence07:
If it matters I've been flashing crazy this past few week due to OEM issue, AFAIK as long as you flash the correct HOME_CSC,CP for your variant everything else should work as intended (exynos firmware=exynos firmware ONLY). I got a N950X but rockin with a N950F firmware (BRA8/BTU) since I got my phone original from UK.

AP: is your system partition with recovery and stuff.

BL: your bootloader

CP: your modem

CSC: this is what features you get in some countries or carriers like Wi-Fi Calling.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] technonaut:
To the many excellent folks here at xda-developers.com, I'm releasing MobilMon 0.5 for free.

I wrote a simple app that monitors file system access (specifically, file creation, deletion, or modification). This sort of tool can be invaluable when you are trying to figure out what's happening on your system. You can export the findings to a log file.

It's pretty bare bones at this point, but that was somewhat intentional. I wanted to see what folks wanted out of such an app before spending more development time on it.

Check it out, and let me know what you think: http://www.mobilmon.com
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Azimuth21:
wow! thank you! this is pretty much exactly what i was wishing for ever since i started playing around with new apps and such on my phone.

it's a great help for just before a system backup. for example, i have SPB backup set to run every other morning. let's say it runs on Saturday at 5:00am. I install some apps and do some random things from 8:00am to 9:00am. 9:30am, my phone crashes. I reset to 5:00am, and I lost all that stuff i did from 8 to 9. now i know! thanks for this app.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] technonaut:
Feature changes

A couple of things I was considering:

1. CSV EXPORT. Would it be better to leave the plain text formatting for easy readability, or format it for CSV export?

2. DIRECTORY. I was originally going to include the ability to change the directory (i.e. something other than just "\") but that would involve some significant work on my part. And, I'm not sure if you'd really want to do that anyway.

3. VIEW FILE READS. As delivered, it monitors file adds, deletes, and changes - not reads. This was done intentionally for performance reasons. Would people want to see all the file reads, even if it bogged the device down?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Blar:
This is awesome! I haven't seen anything else like it, so I am really happy to see someone from the xda-forums to make this magic!

I think that you should add in the view file reads, but only as an option. Maybe also an option to select which operations you want logged (eg. when I only want to see the files created, and not deleted). Although being able export to CSV would give me the same results, but with some editing.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] baniaczek:
Many thanks for the app.

It would be nice to have (even as a separate app) something like mamaaich's file monitor: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=247425, with ability to start/stop and good frontend - to capture all file activities in the whole system.

It helps a lot to find frequent, unintended system file reads (in most cases - draining batteries)

monitor lost memory

i wonder if you could add some powerful memory mgmt to check where my pda memory is lost and what is the process,application or service which is causing memory leaks or using too much memory. maybe you could draw a graph or monitor memory usage during time for all processes. when i start my pda i have 48% free ram, after a day i am back to 80% without any visible app running.

Thanks for the good feedback; I'll look into making it where you can select the types of events to monitor and then go from there.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Alestrix:
Hello,

I stumbled over this (admittedly quite old) thread on the search for a windows-mobile version of something like iTunes FolderWatch or iPad ShutterSnatch.

Would it be possible to extend MobiMon such that an action can be triggered once a new file is found? In my case that action would be to start a picture viewer with the newly created file name as a parameter.

Scenario: Send pictures I take with my camera to my Windows Mobile Phone (HTC HD2) via FTP (MochaFTP) through an Ad-Hoc Network directly from the camera (using Eye-Fi). MobiMon would recognize the new file and fire up the picture viewer. This way, the latest picture taken will be shown on HD2's big display right after the shot was taken.

Of course, if there is a more streight-forward way of doing this (like a picture viewer with integrated FTP-Server :-) ) I'd be more than happy to hear about it!

Regards and a happy new year!

Alex
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] technonaut:
Yes, it's possible.

In regards to your inquiry, it's programmatically possible, but would require a re-write. This has to do with the way things are instantiated. Whether I could afford the time to do it is a different question

1. What is the target OS?

2. Do you have the means and skills to adjust my code and compile it yourself if I just pointed out the changes needed?
