[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] firefly6240:
Thats an amazon model. do you have the halo grey model? if so that one is amazon exclusive.

---------- Post added at 09:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:14 AM ----------

I have the Halo Grey amazon model, funny enough I also moved from T-mobile and had the same issue, the tmobile sim worked but no sprint sims would work.

I am on the free year with sprint and my phone did lock to sprint.

from what I understand this is a hit or miss problem, not everyones phone gets locked to sprint but when it does happen it can be a pain to unlock.

you are basically at the mercy of sprint to unlock it again.

generally they will unlock it for you but oddly make you wait the same period as someone who bought a phone from them and then you have to get someone who knows what they are doing to unlock it.

I havent tried myself since I still have about 6 months left.

the sim card is not only specific to the device but the one year free plan apparently has a specific sim as well.

I ended up having to call sprint and they located a store near me that had the right one.

normally when you sign up online they will ship you a sim but when I did it they were out of stock online and I had to get them locally.

I also activated a Moto G and a Moto X and they used a different sim than the essential (though they did use the same sim as eachother)

hopefully this helps.

What is going on with the most recent update ?

I use my Nexus player with hd home run prime for tv for 2 years now .

Since the latest update , I constantly have to rescan my channels , Everytime I turn my tv on again it prompts me to rescan for channels .

It beyond annoying !
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xanaxdroid:
I've never been prompted to re-scan channels. The November update is working just like the other Oreo updates. Do you have any weird apps running in the background?

Youtube turning back on navigation sounds, when there was zero need to even put the option in, there is a perfectly good global setting, that Youtube ignores.

Oh and the joy of uninstalling Mubi, Sky, Netflx which is annoying enough. But don't put up what looks like a way to deselect them for, well I can't work it out for you not to be able.

And yeah sitnlow4life wish they'd left the updates alone for the benefit they have brought

I'm on this condition: stock retail Nougat, stock retail kernel, TWRP installed, rooted with SuperSU, BusyBox installed and Xposed too.

All works fine on my phone... with a little exception: Packet installer.

When I go to install any APK directly (untrusted sources...) like from Aptoide (with its root installation disabled), from Xposed or from file system I got continuos FC of "packet installer" and installation is not possible.

I've overcome this installing apks from ES file explorer or by some APK installer present on Play Store, BUT both of them need to be used externally as stand alone apps and can't be called directly from, e.g. Xposed or Aptoide.

Both this solution after a first different installation starting, use stock Nougat installer, so the FC should be connected to how installations are called by apps...

I've tried A LOT of solution (clear data, cache, update to v.7.1.2 packet installer, disable & re-enable unknown sources, etc...) but none seems able to fix this little annoying issue... :rolleyes:

Any ideas? :confused:

Do you have this issue too?
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] joemossjr:
Seems like either Xposed modules or any form of putting mods together caused that. Sadly I don't use Xposed due to piracy reasons. But I would start removing mods untill it works for you
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] enetec:
I have very few Xposed MODs installed... I could give it a try with no prob... but I'm not so convinced about a result... :rolleyes:
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] enetec:
You were absolutely right! :cyclops:

I've found it was an Xposed module causing the FCs!

This one to be exact: https://xdaforums.com/xposed/modules/mod-xhfw3-floating-windows-t3371074

Weird is that nor calling app neither Packet installer were set to use its windows features and even blacklisting packet installer from XHFW3 doesn't stop FCs... only fully disabling the module does! :eek: :confused:

Anyway... thanx a lot! ;)

[General Questions and Answers] bennimarru:
So, I just found this thing called Flare Play at goodwill for $6. I didn't know anything about it and wanted to learn more, but it turns out that the cable provider, Cox Communications discontinued the Flare Play services, including all near all youtube videos for it, the official website and the facebook page, leaving next to not information about the system at all.

What I was able to extract from the internet is that it was apparently a game streaming service. When it was first released, it was priced around $80, which isn't too bad when competing with onlive and others back in the day. Though, there was no word on how much the streaming cost per month.

So, with the service discontinued, I wanted to see if there was a way to hack it. It might work off of a type of android software, but it could also be some for of raspberry pi. The model number for it is F1G1001

FC11001

Service number is FGM1505A00414

If anyone has anymore information about this, or has worked on this type of thing and has a nice little hack so I can install android apps to it, let me know!

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] onishchuk4:
So I've had my XL2 for almost a month - original was RMA'd due to poor quality display at the beginning of the month. Anyways, everything has been great up to about the last 3-4 days. In that time I've noticed the following:

1. Phone would not stay on LTE. Only HSPA+ despite 3 other people(who were with me) with the same carrier all having LTE service all day. I restarted my phone 2 times. Toggled airplane mode several time. It only grabbed LTE for a few minutes then reverted back to HSPA+ when I would turn off cellular.

2. Android Auto. My vehicle detects the phone, in-car application launches, but either there is no sound from any song or when I hit play, song is automatically paused everytime. I have to unplug/plug phone for it to all start working. This doesn't happen everytime, but it's done this about a half dozen or so times now.

3. Last but by the far the most annoying and worst. Randomly, when I'm interacting with the Google keyboard or Swiftkey, the phone just starts to spaz out. Random apps open, incorrect text being entered(for example, I type "m" and instead "z" and 3 commas get entered in instead, and just total loss of control on the phone(can't keep anything open or incorrect actions happen).

So I'm the point where either I go for a factory reset(I hate doing this) or I contact support and see about getting an RMA.

FYI: I'm on the November update.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] whyme45125:
Went through 2 really blue displays to get what I thought was a keeper yesterday, my 3rd device. But now today I noticed the screen flashes bright white when going into always on display. Quality control must be non existent between Google & LG.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] onishchuk4:
It's just unbelievable to me that a $1000 device is so poorly made or passed off as ready to be sold. I've been sticking up for Google during most of the screen blue shift fiasco, but after this last string of incidents, I'm losing faith completely. This is especially apparent when I see that my wife's iPhone X has had nothing to this magnitude.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] TokyoGuy:
I've been having major, major problems with SwiftKey myself, to the point where I no longer even want to use this phone until the situation is resolved.

Everything was fine, even on the beta, and then suddenly about a week or so ago - as you mention - SwiftKey just starts going nuts. Incorrect predictions, mistaken input, slow/lag, etc.

I wonder if it's something with the November Security Patch Update or SwiftKey's cloud network or what.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] jrbxx7:
Im using an older version of swiftkey without a hiccup
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] mlin:
Seeing as you have to start from scratch anyway, I'd try a factory reset first. You can always RMA it if the problem persists. Why risk losing your "good" Pixel 2 XL for one that may have a crummy screen restarting the RMA cycle?

Also, was Swiftkey recently updated, like in the last 4 days or so?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] onishchuk4:
The RMA is a little better than the previous one in terms of how extreme the shift is, but overall it's not anything worth keeping. The bottom firing speaker buzzes like you wouldn't believe at 60% or higher volume. I don't recall the original one doing this although I did read in another thread that pretty much every phone is doing this.

If the replacement is worse, I'll send it back. It's not like it's a hassle for me. It's pretty much the same doing a factory reset.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] mlin:
So, I guess the answer you wanted to hear for your either or situation is do an RMA... Good luck with it.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] onishchuk4:
I pretty much wanted to hear if anyone else is seeing these issues. Also, this replacement that I have now is a mid October build.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] whiteblazer01:
Okay, so I had the Apache since it first came out, then it fell off my motorcycle last weekend, so I got a new phone (actually 2 new phones). I got the Herald (T-Mobile Wing), and the Titan (Verizon XV6800). I decided to test T-Mobiles phone with a 30 trial contract (I'm a loyal Verizon customer for 8 years), and get the Titan. Both of these phones are brand new (purchase last 2 days).

I'm pretty much going over all the same things I did when I had the Apache (ROM upgrades, skins, apps, etc...). I noticed the ROM on the Herald is different.

The Herald has ROM version 4.10.531.3 WWE.

The Titan has ROM version 2.09.605.8.

Herald has Radio version 02.83.90

Titan has Radion version 1.30.60

The Herald came with the Voice Command (which is nice), and the HTC Task Manager. The Titan seems to run a lot faster out of the box compared to the Herald, but this is probably due to the fact that T-Mobile installed so much crap on their phone.

Also, I noticed the keypad types much faster on the Herald as opposed to the Titan. I had to disable the sounds to get it to type as fast (fix?).

Anyways, I was wondering if there is any way to extract .cab files from one phone to another. Also if anyone has any questions about the phones, feel free to ask.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] pflatlyne:
I understand the wing to have vastly inferior specifications to the mogul. I looked it up when my gf wanted a blackberry. I was trying to talk her into a wm device but I gave up when I found out that the only similar thing tmobile has to the mogul is the wing. The tmobile rep said that its successor is coming out later this year. I assume that it will be the kaiser or something similar. I think they are calling their new wm phones the shadows or something like that. (the tmobile rep was not to bright so I take what he says with a grain of salt. He said that it will be very much like the wing,with the sliding keyboard and all. I suggested it might be the kaiser,and he swore up and down it could not be,becuase they were calling it something like shadow II.)

In any event, the mogul has a much faster cpu than the wing. This comes with overheating however when you connect to the internet over cellular and use the wifi at the same time. I keep sending it back and complaining. Either they will fix it in a new revision,or they will have to upgrade me. I am not to happy as I paid a lot of money for something that does not work well,but there is no other phone that meets my needs for now.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] bigsaucy71:
Just noticed today that the vibration on my V30 has stopped working....Looks like a trip to T-mobile in the morning...anyone elese had issues??
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] psawjack:
I have not. Have you run the LG hardware test just to verify?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] bigsaucy71:
No I haven't is that a playstore item?

It took me forever to find it.

*#546368#*998# or

Or

Whichever model you have.

Go into ELT test

Then change from auto to manual.

Then look for vibrator.

thanks again psawjack.. went to manual mode no vibration
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] psawjack:
No problem. You can use that to show the folks in the store that it doesn't work.

Yours is definitely a one off. I haven't seen anyone else that has had an issue with vibrator before.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] uzupan:
If you are running the battery saver it turns off the vibration, my vibration wasn't working and I checked the battery saver then edit and I turned my vibration back on, something you may want to check if you have not already
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] bigsaucy71:
uzupan, thank you that's exactly what it was
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Septembersrain:
Yay! So it wasn't defective after all!
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] bigsaucy71:
nope, it's in the battery saver menu if you go to extended mode it disables the vibration, but there is a edit mode that allows you to turn it back on...pretty pleased with the phone at the moment!
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] psawjack:
Wait a minute... So when you did the vibrator hardware test it still wouldn't test the vibrator motor because you had battery saver on? That doesn't seem right to me. If you are trying to test hardware via internal diagnostic software menu it should pass the test and bypass the vibration off setting because of battery saver mode.

NVM - above is fact, I just verified. My mind is blown by this.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Septembersrain:
We're here learning something crazy every single day. Now that you put it that way, I'd have thought the same.

"Battery saver mode" has more authority than "diagnostic software menu".

It's a choice LG engineers made, but you are right -- it sounds like the wrong choice. I would be interested in hearing their logic on that.

tl;dr - connection between ur vibro and its socket on mobo became loose.

sorry for necro, but anyway it may be helpful for someone. (wasted about 14 days in total trying to find solution for it. next step - hanging audio/no playback/sound when turning on dac lol)

u tried to play with battery saving settings and still have no result?

u made factory reset/refurbished and got nothing but losing all of ur data?

so its time to try physical solution.

go to SAAT to test vibration (like psawjack said here)

place ur phone screen down

find a place under botton left corner of camera glass (imagine a rectangle around it)

and start pushing hard but gently to the left, to sim tray

until u find ur phone vibrating

in short - remember "benging iphones"? welcome to the club. now u should do same trick with ur hands bcs ur vibro have bad connection with its socket on mobo
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] rcook55:
Bought an unlocked S8 from Samsung I use AT&T for service. I wouldn't be opposed to flashing/odin'ing AT&T firmware. Currently on build NRD90M.G950U1UEU1AQH3 and the August 1st security patch. I'm unsure of the best path to get to an AT&T firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] jpcdeux:
Go to the att section. Find the qf7 firmware and flash it with Odin.

Go to the adb update from server thread. Download all the firmwares (starting with qf7 to whatever it is) and put them on your external storage. While on qf7 reboot into recovery and select install update from storage. Flash each one, after the last one wipe data/factory reset and reboot.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] rcook55:
So to be clear, flash AQF7 in Odin. This will get me onto an AT&T specific SM-G950U (<-- Not U1) ROM that I can then sideload the updates onto? Is sideloading the ADB updates just to speed things up vs waiting for OTAs once I'm on the correct ROM?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] msk:
I flashed my at&t version to AHQ3 thinking I would be getting faster support. I am also surprised that the Unlocked AHQ3 is still on the August security patch. I really expected this version to get patched much faster or am I missing something?

The US unlocked version is the red headed stepchild of the S8 world, it really is slower for updates.

[Samsung Gear S3] arjuna_:
I have an issue since I upgraded to Tizen 3 that I can't find the answer for. I keep getting a recurrent message saying EAS requires a PIN to access email content. The dumb thing is I already have a PIN and the phone is set to Gear Lock with Payments only. I type in the PIN I have and re-enter it only for the message to come back again in a few minutes.

This problem is very new for me since Tizen 3 and it happens even after a factory reset. It is so annoying.

I have a corporate email on my phone but I don't understand why it keeps coming up even though I have a PIN already on the watch.

Please help!!
[Samsung Gear S3] agiudici:
I have the same issue its crazy frustrating how can we fix?
[Samsung Gear S3] arjuna_:
Is that a new issue for you since Tizen 3 update? This has never happened to me prior to the update.

As others have said before I'm pretty unhappy with this update. I have worse battery life, the Gear VR integration hasn't worked for me, and this PIN thing is crazy frustrating.
[Samsung Gear S3] Inertial:
I'm having the issue as well, and I have no corporate email, just Gmail. This only started happening after the Tizen 3.0 update and has persisted through a device hard reset.

One thing I'm wondering is if my watch strap is causing the issue. It seems Tizen 3.0 is handling things differently with determining if you're wearing the watch by relying on the heart rate sensor. I think it relied on gyroscope before. All I know is my NATO strap suddenly prevents AOD entirely and notifications only work if I set it to show them even when I'm not wearing the watch. I'm guessing the strap running between the watch and my wrist might be causing the PIN issue because it thinks I'm taking my watch off.
[Samsung Gear S3] arjuna_:
The thought about the strap is an interesting one and one I thought may be at play as well. It would be a disaster if that is what is causing it because I don't know if there is a good fix for that.

Anyone recommend any straps that potentially could fix this problem?
[Samsung Gear S3] Inertial:
I just put a regular strap back on and AOD and notifications work normally now. Unfortunately it doesn't affect the issue in this thread. Even with a regular band that doesn't go between the watch and my wrist I'm still getting the EAS PIN issue.

Clear your phone's app data

I fixed this problem a while back... I also had a problem with the gear app on my phone crashing repeatedly.

By the way, I got this fix by calling Samsung support.
