[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] truwrxtacy:
I got the Pixel 1, and it was working fine and great on 7.0, then 8.0 came along and i did the update, now its complete garbage. The phone will periodically shut off and turn back on, the bluetooth is almost not usable.

I drive a Ram, so it utilzes the Uconnect system, it worked flawlessly on 7.0, but now when its connected and i play spotify thru the Uconnect, it does not display song name or artist, it just says pixel, i never had this issue before. And to add insult to injury, this morning when i made a call to my wife thru my Uconnect system, it didn't even connect to my bluetooth, it was ringing thru my phone, I even checked to make sure the BT was on, it says it was and it was connected.

so does anyone know if there is a fix for this? or am i SOL? I really like the phone otherwise, these issues only came up after i updated to 8.0, can i downgrade it back to 7?
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] phaino00:
Bluetooth is an intermittent issue with Pixel and Oreo. Google is aware and apparently added a fix in most recent update (November).

Fortunately, I have had no issue with Bluetooth and Oreo on my Pixel.

Concerning downgrade, you can always flash any factory image.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] truwrxtacy:
does it not have a rollback protection? From my understanding, i would need to OEM unlock it first before i can roll it back, mine is on 8.0 from verizon and apprantly the oem unlock is protected so i cannot turn it on

Wasn't aware you had Verizon's version. You may want to check with Google Forums concerning the Bluetooth issue. Best wishes! :)

Hi. I'm in the UK. I bought the 4/64 Mate 10 from Wonda Mobile. Think it's the Chinese version but they put the international Rom on before shipping. Mine arrived with a UK charger which was an unexpected bonus as they had said would be Chinese plug with adaptor.

Hi XDA

I'm using a K88H SmartWatch and a LG G3.

So I already installed the Mediatek App for notifications and a app called Sound about.

My problem is the following. Once I connected my phone the wanted behaviour is that when a call is incoming I want to see it on the SmartWatch but and can answer it there but the sound is coming from the phone. This already works so far. But once the call ended due to the second app my Bluetooth watch is disconnected as phone and only works as a media output device. So I have to reconnect the phone mode manually by pressing the phone button on the watch and reconnect it. But I would like to get it done automatically.

I set SoundAbout that for the phone call audio the phone app decides which sound device should be uses. And in the Bluetooth settings I put the phone call behaviour that the Bluetooth mono auto usage is deactivated. So once a call is made the phone switches from Bluetooth to normal phone as sound output.

So my question is how do I get my phone to use the Bluetooth device as phone again once the call has ended.

Or easier that the phone uses the earpiece for sound and doesnt disconnect the Bluetooth device.

Thanks in advance

Edit: I also tried Bluetooth auto connect app. It automatically disables Bluetooth when calling but only turns on Bluetooth automatically again once I open the app again. Maybe there is a setting that I haven't found that switches Bluetooth back on once the call ended.

Hello XDA

So yesterday bought my new lcd with frame and every little accs it costs me very cheap its like 350Gel(131$), it looks and feels original i compare with previous lcd. it was g935a version and what i bought is have same codes, so i'm sure that it is original. So after i replace my logic board to this frame and all lcd works great, more than great, no death pixels or lag.

So now i put my sim card what i used early and there no signal, mob shows me that this sim is not verizon or something like this ...

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] maurellus:
Hi everybody, i've got a xiaomi redmi note 4 snapdragon 4/64 gb. Around 1 week ago has start to get slower in navigation, i've found lags in the settings menu and the whole phone is full of little lags never seened before, at the start has always had an impressive quickness. I was thinking that shoulded be the update to miui 9 done few days before, i've tried to downgrade, downloading the package from the miui website miui 8.5.8 snap and doing every necessary step (wiping) but nothing has changed. At the end i've remembered that the phone has falled from 40-50 cm one time, and the sim slot has pop out few millimeters from the case, but my note have a silicon cover and the sim slot has came back on its own place without problems. I've update again to miui 9 using ota, and casually playing a movie on vlc player the app has told me "hardware accelation rendering problem, switch to software rendering" before to start, and after the mkv movie was playing slowly and lagging. Then i ve downloaded 3d marks and here the surprise, with slingshot extreme test looks like a slowmotion movie with heavy lags, obviously not normal on a phone like this. I ve tried other gpu test and always the same response, with StabilyTest on cpu/gpu test goes slow with low details settings as well. Just to know, for few times has pop up with no reason the volume adjust and the google search in the meanwhile that i was watching a video, this happens for an half an hour and has never done it other times. What problem can be??? Can the hardware acceleration disabled for a problem in the update or after falling, and it is just working the software acceleration?? I was thinking to install a recovery mode and install another rom or flash the official rom just to see if the problem is hardware or software. The phone have the warranty. Please help me, or just explain me how this hardware/software acceleration works. Thanks a lot guys !!!:cowboy:

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tahvok:
So I have a friend who decided to mess with his phone, of course without doing a backup, and now he's stuck in a situation that it can't boot even into recovery.

Currently all I see when booting to recovery:

Recovery Booting. . . . .

Set Warranty Bit : recovery

The phone is G900F

He has no idea what version was installed on it before.

I don't need the phone to boot, I need to recover the files on it.

Being a oneplus person myself, I'm not that familiar with samsung phones (my latest samsung was s2).

I've tried to install with odin (3.0.7 - if that matters) the following recoveries:

official twrp 2.8.7

twrp

cwm

All these recoveries showed "Recovery is not seandroid enforcing" message as well as the above when trying to boot into recoveries.

I've tried the official recovery as well:

https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s5/general/sm-g900f-stock-recovery-5-0-lollipop-t3228871

which removed the "seandroid" message, but that's all.

Not sure what I'm missing.

Any help would be appreciated!
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Many40:
Hmm...

I see that your friend messed up his phone very well .....

Hopefully the eMMC memory is not corrupted becuase then only motherboard replacement would be necessary.

Summarising what you wrote:

1. you flashed "official recovery 2.8.7" -> where did you get it from? 2.8.7 is the very old version!

2. you flashed unofficial TWRP very old (2014) recovery (I checked your link)

3. you flashed unofficial CWM very old (2014) recovery (I checked your link)

4. finally you flashed stock, from old OS 5.0 Lollipop recovery provided from entrusted source - nobody reported that it works in the thread.

I listed this for you in order to underline one thing - READ, READ, READ, ASK, ASK, ASK .... before flashing anything to the phone and tell it to your friend.

Le's start with flashing from ODIN ver 3.12.7 (I am using it) this version of TWRP:

twrp-3.1.1-0-klte.img.tar for G900F which is the latest official recovery:

https://twrp.me/samsung/samsunggalaxys5qualcomm.html

Read how to flash it with odin method (when you open the link).

Edit: Are you sure the phone is SM-G900F? Please check model number on the label under battery (inside the phone).

Edit2: When you enter odin mode check phone model version as well - it is provided by installed bootloader.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tahvok:
First, thank you for trying to help me!

Please see attachments:

https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=1euC7-CoBeeUQxTGXQnPPgRE2-5VxFXLh

You can see that it is indeed g900f. I've also checked under the battery.

I've flashed the recovery you asked, however I could not find odin 3.12.7 only 3.12.10, so I've flashed with that (the odin thread on xda does not provide a link for 3.12.7 download).

You can see that it's still not booting with that recovery, it's just stuck at "booting recovery" screen.

I'm thinking perhaps it has a bad bootloader? How would you suggest to proceed?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Many40:
Ok. Let's continue ... I hope (as I had very similar situation) that the phone is not hardbricked and eMMC memory is not corrupted -> I faced this on my phone and finally had to replace motherboard.

But let's be optimistic:

1. For data recovery - I don't have a silver bullet for this but I found this software: http://www.recover-android-iphone.com/recover-android/how-to-recover-data-bricked-samsung.html

It needs working odin mode so under condition that it supports s5 G900F it should be able to restore some data.

2. For unbricking - I recommend to flash via odin the latest official Samsung stock firmware dedicated to your friend's country/region:

https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s5/SM-G900F/

You must be registered to download the software. Link for odin 3.12.7 is available on the bottom of the download page.

Just to underline - odin flash most probably (anybody please confirm that) will wipe your data so be aware of that.

Good luck.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tahvok:
Why a full firmware is needed? Perhaps I can flash only the parts required to get into recovery? I count mount the phone from recovery, that's why it's my priority.

I would like to know also if odin will wipe everything if flashing a full firmware?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Many40:
Because it is commonly recommended way to unbrick a phone.

Perhaps, yes. But:

1. I don't exactly know what restricts your recovery to run properly. Flashing separate recovery failed.

2. You, for example, could try flashing separately one of the latest bootloaders dedicated to G900F from BL section with odin but I doubt it would help.

As far as I know yes but I am not 100% sure because I didn't try that myself on s5.

I would appreciate if somebody else confirms that.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tahvok:
Can you suggest a bootloader for me? I would like to try that first.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Many40:
In my opinion, if odin mode works then bootloader should be OK. But as you wish -

tell me first what stock firmware will you later on trying to flash on your friends phone or in which country the phone will be operated.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tahvok:
Hong Kong
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Many40:
Latest available Firmware version for Hong Kong is G900FZHS1CQD1 however I can't find a separate flashable bootloader for you.

Generaly, in my opinion you might try any of the latest bootloaders compatible with SM-G900F phone (here you can find a collection: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=54094068&postcount=3, I am on G900FXXS1CQI4) but again:

1. I doubt it will help for entering recovery;

2. I still recommend to flash complete stock firmware to unbrick the phone.

However if you anyway decide to try with a bootloader, flash it with odin from BL section (untick auto reboot). Also turn off the phone before and after flashing and pull out battery for about 30 sec. It happens that bootloader doesn't flash properly at once even the odin says "PASS" so some people reported that they needed to repeat flashing a few times. I managed to flash bootloader at first time.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] compmasterryan:
Hello all,

This is my first post on XDA, so I apologize in advance if I'm in the wrong place. I've searched high and low for an answer to this, but all the threads I've come across are at least 5+ years old and don't directly relate to the issue I'm having.

Basically, here's what's going on. I have two app APK files that I have edited to change some of the resources in them. One of them is SwiftKey. I used APKEditor from the Play Store to replace two of the keyboard sounds included to custom ones. After I save the edited APK, I rename it to 'base.apk' and then replaced the 'base.apk' inside of the app's directory with the edited one. After doing this, everything seems to work fine, and the app continues to work normally with the new sounds I've added in.

However, the issue I'm having is that anytime I need to reboot my phone, any apps that I've edited the APK for disappear. After Android starts up, I can see the apps on my home screen for a second, and then they vanish. The folder for the app is still present inside of /data/apps, but the app does not appear under the list of installed apps anymore. I'm wondering if this is maybe because the modified APK isn't being signed right, or if I'm doing something wrong. I made sure the permissions were correct too after I replaced the base.apk file as well.

If there is another (better) way to do this, I am all ears! I'm pretty tech savvy, but I just recently switched from iOS to Android after not using Android for 4-5 years, so things are a bit different now than they were the last time I used Android.

Thank you for your help!

Absolutely the same problems on my YD-201 6.0.1 with the same configurations (TWRP, Xposed, Greenify, NovaLauncher + Stock Battery Optimization). Besides, my wifi cannot be disabled, it is always active whatever i try. It is always on search mode even it is disabled. Hey, how do you get the dark theme for stock settings menu? And is your Battery Optimization Settings active?
[YotaPhone] KoneB:
Android Version?

What's the android version do you have? Lollipop or Marahmallow, i have YD206 with YD201 software, it has some issues with lolli and others with Marsh.

Do you have the hybrid Radio? The european or the chinese? If you dont even know then i suggest you to install the hybrid radio, it solves problems with the battery drain and the warm issues (yota hell xD).

I dont use greenify, i just use the freezing mode from titanium backup.
[YotaPhone] tashev2078:
An update: THINGS ARE GETTING BETTER [after installing Better Wifi on/off (read below)]

1. I'm using Greenify and have hibernated many applications - this might be one of the solutions to the Wi-Fi usage. (See attached zip file for which apps are hibernated)

2. I installed an app called Better Wifi on/off version 2.1.0.0 from Google Play Store and have set the rules how to turn on/off (See also attached zip file for the exact set-up).

3. The Wifi sometimes appear to be ON on Battery Usage Graphic, but actual battery consumption is not noticed. The the normal consumption for 'Phone idle' is about 3-4% per day (around 120 mA). This would suggest that the phone will be able to last around 20 days if totally idle.

4. BLUETOOTH BUG - somewhere in this forum I read that after connecting the phone via Bluetooth to some external gadget (in my case UE Roll 2 music box), even after disconnecting, the Bluetooth causes Wakelock and this dramatically drains the battery!!! (See screenshot) The solution is Restart of the phone. On the Battery graphic you can clearly see the drain from Awake and after that I did a Restart and let the phone stay idle - the usage dropped immediately!

5. I'm using stock Battery Optimization

6. [OFF-TOPIC] To make background color for menus dark I use projekt.substratum_490_minAPI23.com.apk (attached to the post) and after installing it, I downloaded the theme InversionUI from Google Play Store.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Questions & Answers] diehard2013:

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Questions & Answers] Ramer:
The T-820 is wifi. Are you asking to use it to Tether to another device, or using it to connect to the Internet via your phone? If it's the latter, you go into wifi settings and select your phone to connect to. You can't use it to connect other wifi devices as the T-820 doesn't have a cellular connection.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Questions & Answers] undrwater:
Maybe describe your use case. What are you planning to tether TO the tablet.

The LG has a tether option because it has a wireless chip. The Tab does not have such a chip.

Most android Wi-Fi hotspots will shut off the Wi-Fi radio and provide internet through your wireless carrier. It would be unusual (useless?) for a phone to share the Wi-Fi signal it's using.
