[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Some_Donkus:
I wanna do what it says up there^

Or customize it.

This had been universally easy on Samsung devices and pre-marshmallow... But I've had no luck with any Xposed module yet. Tried the regulars, gravity box, wanam, firefds, x-blast, and a few moto-x modules.

My absolute last option will be to do a regex replacement for anything that says SPRINT but ughhh, that's like killing a squirrel with a 44 magnum.

Anybody able to point me to a more surgical method of this?

...(fear I might be stuck with heinous notification icons and carrier text in the bar until custom ROMs like RR hit the goop)
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Uzephi:
Notifications? Have you disabled the Sprint apps? I still have nav bar, but all notifications disappear with disabling all Sprint apps
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Some_Donkus:
Oh I meant just the color of the ticker icons on the status bar (which happens to be right next to status bar carrier label too... Damn white)

Top left of attached photo.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] enetec:
They are ALL WHITE on unbranded Z2 or AOSP N... have you coloured others by GravityBox?
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Some_Donkus:
Yeah, just got the right-side status icons colored (and nav bar) via GravityBox [n]
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] enetec:
GravityBox rocks... but SPRINT rocks more! :silly:
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] X_man.:
If you're talking about removing the carrier label you can do that from the settings of the phone
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] filthyfnj24:
Flat style bar indicators will let you change the text, size and shape of literally every element of your status bar.

[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Some_Donkus:
Sweet zombie Christ. So I can!! How dare you point out something so ludicrously obvious and make me look like a herpaderp! I actually hunted through every level of every settings twice before finding it, because... Well because I thought you had to be mistaken. Glad I double checked and glad to see you are right!! I'm going to go crawl into a hole with my fellow troglodytes now!
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] X_man.:
LMAO :laugh: Would it make you feel better if I told you I only knew because I was hunting online a few weeks ago for the same thing? I saw it and I sad "This can't be right" But damned it it won't! LOL
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] enetec:
Ahahahah, simpler solution are ever better ones...! :laugh:

P.S.: anyway cyan statusbar is really "too oldies"... :silly:
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Some_Donkus:
Okay. Took some finesse, but I got gravity box and FSI to play nice together. Also had to disable status bar carrier in settings to prevent doubling up.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] X_man.:
Nice!

Hello!

Recently, I was able to disable the Bixby button simply by clicking on the Bixby button, going to settings, and selecting the disable button option. That option appears to have vanished and I don't know how else to disable it now.

If anyone has seen this issue please let me know!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] frsh20:
I can't help you with your problem but I use the Bixby remapper app and i changed it to open Google assistant. Pretty simple.

You could just open the phone, cut the ribbon to that button....:cyclops:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] -Epix-:
Long press on any open home screen. Swipe right until getting you to Bixby home. Then turn off. You can also turn off her voice in settings on that page. And pressing button does nothing

Also there is apps in the play store to remap the button (no root) to do something else. Now my button for Bixby takes a SS.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] natthewife:
Do it in the Bixby app. I disabled my button today in Bixby settings
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] adamjezek98:
So today I came home, connected my S7E to home Wi-Fi, and after some time, the internet was not available. The wifi icon is shown with exclamation mark and none of the apps, neither the browser, has connection (chrome says DNS probe finished, no internet). But it was working for about an hour, then it suddenly stopped.

I used another device to make sure the internet is working. Then I rebooted my router and phone, but no change. I made Android forget my Wi-Fi and connected again, also tried again with specifying the IP, mask, gateway and DNS. Still no success. (When I connect to the Wi-Fi without specifying IP and other stuff, the mobile obtains it automatically) Tried on 5 different routers (TP-LINK, Zyxel, Compex), the same results. All of them are 2.4Ghz, will test at some Ubiquiti's 5GHz APs tomorrow.

The ping in IP Tools app timeouts on every IP (router, gateway, DNS servers), only mobile's IP can be pinged. When I try to ping from another device to my phone, it works. Just the reply time varies from 4ms to 1000ms.

Tried hard reseting my phone (holding power + volume down, not doing factory reset) and hard reseting (cut the power) all my network devices (routers, gateway, switches). All of them have the latest firmware.

When using mobile data, internet is fine.

Also, the internet is propably sometimes available for some apps. I let the phone for few hours to see if it will fix itself, and there were new notifications from Instagram app (I'm 100% sure that my post was liked after the phone lost internet, so the notification must have been pushed to the phone through the "broken" Wi-Fi. But when I open instagram, it says it's offline. Other apps (Messenger, Gmail, Facebook, etc.) didn't received any notifications.

I have Galaxy S7 EDGE, Android 7.0. I used mobile data to check for software updates, phone is up to date.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] adamjezek98:
So the issue stil persist, and I noticed some more things:

I also tried booting into recovery mode and wiping cache partition but it made no change.

If I disable encryption on my WiFi, the connection starts working, but only for few hours. Then It's not working again. Also, this helps only sometimes.

I used IP Tools app to perform a ping requests, set it to 10sec timeout and let it for a while to do ping requests to my gateway. Most of the requests just timeouts, then for a few seconds there are some successfull ones with time of about 5ms, and then it goes back to timeout.

Pinging from my computer to phone is always successfull, reply time varies from 5ms to 70ms.

So the randomly goes on and off on many routers, and none of my actions made change, so it's definitelly a software glitch, maybe the latest update caused this.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] abro0405:
Me to...

Did you ever fix this? My phone has started to do this in the last week or two.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] SteveRiley:
Have you installed a local VPN-based adblocker like AdGuard? I have. And lately I've seen the same symptom on WiFi -- connected, but can't communicate. Stopping and restarting AdGuard fixes the problem.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] abro0405:
No, no new apps or anything vpn related.

Seem to have solved it now after a hard reset (hold volume down + power button) suggested elsewhere. A day and a half without problems, fingers crossed.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] DarthMaul14:
Hi all,

I placed my moto g5 plus in a drawer with a Sim tool in it and when I pulled it out, it was magnetically sticking to the phone next to the camera, even thought I have a case on. Can magnets do damage to the phone or throw off the compass calibration and is it normal for magnets to stick to this phone.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] Karlinski:
Strong magnets can cause some serious damage under specific situations, but I wouldn't sweat it. Compass operation is pretty easy to check.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] DarthMaul14:
Ok thanks for letting me know. I believe Samsung said that magnets can cause extensive damage to the motherboard. Is this true?
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] Karlinski:
It can potentially cause damage to processors and chips, but not very likely to happen overall.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] DarthMaul14:
Thanks for letting me know. I was a bit worried there.

I bought huawei P9 lite in UK VNS-L31C636B390

It cannot work when I use Chinese sims.

Are there any ROMs can I use to solve this problem or any other solutions?

Many thanks.

U sure hope got Chinese sim ? Ur ROM code is 4 Asia but idk why it don't work . Was it working on b380/381 ?
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] -Alf-:
If your phone was made for UK, maybe cannot receive the frequencies in China , you can compare it here

Or maybe is your phone locked and you'll need to SIM unlock .

To check lock status :

1. At phone dial pad enter * # * # 2846579 # * # *

2. select" Network Information Querry

3. select "SIM lock info

4. If your phone is unlocked, you will see this " SIMLOCK_DEACTIVE".
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Cowbell_Guy:
So, overall I've been really impressed with the battery life on this phone. Probably the best out of any device I've ever had. When I first got it I was getting close to 7 hours of screen time. However after rooting my phone and getting the November update, now I'm only getting 4 hours of screen time. Has anyone else encountered something similar? I am not sure exactly what the cause of that is, if anyone has any tips for improving battery life would really appreciate it

I have changed my phone and I have taken the backup of my whatsapp data also and stored it on to my PC.

Now I have the only 2files that were stored by name:

msgstore-2017-10-17.1.db.crypt12

msgstore.db.crypt12

Both files are of the same size,(about 77MB) and is only text data.

Now when I install whatsapp on new device and trying to restore from the above files, at after 13% of restore an error message comes up and says that "unable to restore the messages"

Once again telling.. I have these 2 files only. I have NO KEY file also with me,

Is there any chance to recover my data. If so, please let me know how to do that.

If required, I have no objection to share my PC through teamviewer for the helping hand

I recently flashed my phone to a custom rom and CID unlocked it but now I have a few small problems. I used the touchflo version from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=367534&highlight=touchflo 1.I got notification error messages that say cannot execute clocknot.exe calnot.exe repllog.exe when I first started it up and they continue to pop up frequently.

2. The post says "- go to start/programs/Touch/TFSettings , then set the way you want to activate the cube " When I go to programs there is no Touch folder and TF settings. If I go to settings/system there is touchflo but the only option it has is enable sound when finger scrolling. Should there be something there in programs?

3. I downloaded the files for the cube but have no idea what to do. Im guessing editing the registy with the stuff that is in the xml file has something to do with it. Tried doing some searches and reading but no luck so far. Someone want to point me in the right direction?

4. Also in CommMgr whenever I try to take the X off the wifi it goes off for a second then goes back on but my wifi seems to work as I went on ebay so that is very minor.

[Moto Z2 Force Accessories] Some_Donkus:
If you could request -- or righteously demand -- any custom Moto mod, what would it be?

( Try to stay within the boundaries of physics and reasonability... That being said, legally or morally questionable is totally legit).

I personally would love a mod with a 6300mAh (or greater) battery extension that also housed the following ports: 2x USB 2.0, 1x stereo 1/8", 2x microSD.

It sounds like a lot, I know, but I figure if they can pack those damn 7-in-1 flash media adapters into a 2"x3" chunk of plastic, why couldn't they do it in a mod with some extra battery love?
[Moto Z2 Force Accessories] enetec:
What about of a mod with IR blaster, one or two more SIMs support, one more microSD slot and wireless charge support all-in-one?

Since of my info, it should be doable... :p

Oh drats, i totally didn't think of an IR blaster, yeaaaah that would be nice! ( > *.* )>= ~ ~ ~ ~ {[~~ TV ]}

"Does not exist."

I would love to see an output or something on the mod to use it as a VR headset to the PC. That would be intuitive. Might need some coding to it and an official update to the mods app by Motorola, but would be a nice addition of "gimmicks" motomods bring.

If some more battery power can be added fine.

I always loved the way my Moto 360 turns into a little bedside clock when you put it on the charger. What if we had a Moto Mod dock you could put your phone on to charge and turn your phone into a little bedside clock.

[Moto Z2 Force Accessories] FragmentedLogik:
Honestly i know it was talked about but it appears the project was a huge scam but why not take the edgemod as seen on indiegogo at https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/edge-mod-supercharge-your-moto-z#/ and combine it with Dual Sim Support, some of motorola's devmods look like they could easily make that happen.

[Moto Z2 Force Accessories] Some_Donkus:
I have the experience and most of the know-how to make a board for the stuff suggested... I've built bread boards before, and even custom programmed eprom chips before for custom audio rigs. I've dabbled with raspberry pis... Maybe after Xmas bonus I'll put down the money to buy the motomod Dev kit and see what I can do. The boards and modules won't be the difficult part. Building the exterior form factors to make it actually end-user friendly will be another story.

If (big if) I can get a few boards made that work exactly as intended with their respective modules, I'll see about the next step. This kind of stuff is way more in my wheelhouse than mobile programming.
[Moto Z2 Force Accessories] kingstu:
I have many ideas but one would be a battery mod which accepted AA batteries. So instead of an internal sealed battery it could be sold without batteries and then just add the AA batteries and it would be working for emergencies.
[Moto Z2 Force Accessories] shadow2by4:
Multi-mod

Kind of thick, but I think it may be worth the bulk

2000mAh bonus battery - reasonable, IMO

3.5mm port on the bottom, IR blaster on the top, a full size USB A port on the left, a full size HDMI port on the right. Plug in monitor, keyboard, and mouse with a USB hub for an instant desktop, or plug into a TV to mirror the screen. Obviously, things like plugging in USB gamepads for multiplayer phone gaming, plugging in a microphone and MIDI controller to use with FL Studio Mobile, etc, are fair game.

Slide it down for a 5 row keyboard. Out of the sides of that comes a flat gamepad with four shoulder buttons, four main action buttons, a d-pad, start and select buttons, and two clicky PSP-style flat sliding joysticks. It can wrap around the keyboard to create something like a Nintendo DS but with a keyboard instead of a second screen, or can wrap around the phone while the keyboard is hidden to give you a PS Vita-like setup.

Essentially, the point is to turn the phone into a pocket laptop. Need to work, but your laptop is nowhere near? Boom. Want to get your game on without touchscreen controls getting in the way? Boom. Want to plug in a scanner via USB and preserve priceless family photos dating back centuries? Boom.

If I were to prototype this myself(which I unfortunately lack the skills and funds for), I'd imagine it would come out costing about $180, with profit margin thrown in. Here's how I figure.

rPi Zero for ports - $15

Scrap PSP and four small buttons for game controller - $50

Keyboard - $30

Requisite connectors - $10

Plastic case (probably would have to have these custom 3D printed in bulk or simply get a 3D printer) - $5-ish

New 2,000mAh li-ion battery: $20

Cost to me: $130

Profit per unit without considering other overhead like work time or having to buy a 3D printer: $50

Honestly, the more I go on typing this, the more I want to check out how to actually make something like this.
[Moto Z2 Force Accessories] Some_Donkus:
A prototype with all working features wouldn't be the hard part of any of this... the hard part would be the physical engineering of making it "compact" and pocket friendly. Not just 3-d printing, but you would eventually have to get in there with some rebound steel strips and such to make the "Slide" out sections slide properly... but fortunately, in the world we live in, if you had a working prototype (no matter how fugly and un-pocketable) some company is likely to buy it from you. A company that actually has the manufacturing resources to build all the nitty gritty mechanical parts.

[Moto Z2 Force Accessories] joesee:
Man... some of these suggestions are a bit over the top!

[Moto Z2 Force Accessories] ToXicD:
found it: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/moto-z-the-storage-mod-smartphone#/

check these out too: https://moduware.com/devices/

what about a mod that accepts these?

I recently came across a bunch of different mods being developed and one of them was like a multi-function or power up mod like fore mentioned with a sd card slot, ir blaster, headphone jack, multiple usb ports, and extra battery power. I cant remember if it was wireless charging capable or not but I don't see why it wouldn't be. Also for some reason an HDMI port comes to mind but that may have been something I thought should have been added to it along with another mini SIM slot so we could convert our single u.s. models. I will try to find the site with all the proposed mods and post it.

I have also thought about submitting a design which is simply a pass through type mod which would allow you to stack another mod on top of it that contains only the circuitry for wireless charging and maybe a small battery and some ports so it isn't too bulky. this mod would basically allow all other mods to be wirelessly charged while attached to the phone or not. maybe Bluetooth also to allow you to use other speaker mods without being attached to your phone so they can be used like any other wireless speaker.

---------- Post added at 12:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:13 AM ----------

you are just talking about the company making that edge mod being a scam correct? if the entire project was a scam that would totally suck because I think that is the site I seen some pretty cool ideas. Also I thought that Motorola and some other big companies were involved with the project offering to financially back like the top 10 ideas or something so I am trying to understand how the entire project could have been a scam without anyone knowing anything about it after so much publicity. I can see if just one of the participants took some backers money and not getting any media attention but not an international scam involving multiple companies of a billion dollar industry. maybe some more news about this will come out soon
